[16:05] <bjb1959> ok, I am back to the question is there a good howto out there for setting up print sharing via samba?
[16:05] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, depending on how big your exthdd is, i think you can gain up to an extra 10gb of space on a 120gb hdd by using fat32 over ntfs
[16:06] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, mine is a 500gb.
[16:06] <Pici> beni: which are you asking about? webster or rpc.mountd?
[16:06] <lardarse> Atomic_UE: wow? is fat32 really more efficient than ntfs?
[16:06] <Atomic_UE> KalEl, defrags are sometimes necessary for ntfs
[16:06] <lalalande> !googleearth
[16:06] <Ubotwo> Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html - A package for Ubuntu is available in the !Medibuntu repository
[16:06] <MrPrayer> Hi all, I've tried to install many times ubuntu 7.10 on flash USB Sony 8G as instructed in the pendrive's instruction, but it is always failed.Do you know about another instruction how to??
[16:06] <MrPrayer>
[16:06] <beni> Pici: the port is called "webster" but the PID seems to be from mountd?!
[16:06] <g0th> I installed ubuntu 7.10 on my latop. At the beginning I shrinked and moved my vista partition to the very end and deleted and recreated all other partitions. In my boot menu I see vista as a choice but when I select it, the pc reboots instead of starting vista...
[16:06] <lardarse> Atomic_UE: from experience, though, they take a very long time
[16:07] <g0th> any idea how I get to boot vista?
[16:07] <Atomic_UE> KalEl, it's way better than fat, but sometime you still need to defrag ntfs....had to do it on a work machine today
[16:07] <g0th> I mounted the partition, it should still be there...
[16:07] <abrand1972> can someone offer me help on installing a hauppauge 350 on ubuntu 7.10
[16:07] <enyc> g0th: you might need to change /boot/grub/menu.lst to have the right device there... not sure
[16:07] <nomic> why doesn't sudo apt-get build-essential work anymore?
[16:07] <nomic> anyone?
[16:07] <lardarse> nomic:
[16:07] <nomic> says can't find package
[16:08] <beni> nomic: build-essentialS
[16:08] <lardarse> add the word install after apt-get
[16:08] <nomic> ar ok
[16:08] <beni> lardarse: yep probably that x)
[16:08] <MrPrayer> anyone??
[16:08] <Pici> beni: no, there is no S.
[16:08] <g0th> enyc: it is the right device there
[16:08] <MasterShrek> no s at the end of build-essential
[16:08] <Atomic_UE> lardarse, fat32 isn't more efficient, it's just different. It records less metadata for each file, so that gives you more space to play with
[16:08] <enyc> g0th: are you sure... (hd0,0) etc. ?
[16:08] <nomic>  sudo apt-get install build-essential
[16:08] <braaaaains> I have an old G4 400mhz tower that I just installed a new HD in and I would like to turn it into a work fileserver using Wired software found at (zankasoftware.com) I am also curious if I will be able to administrate this server via the CLI terminal on my mini without having another distribution installed on another computer.
[16:08] <nomic> Reading package lists... Done
[16:08] <nomic> Building dependency tree
[16:08] <nomic> Reading state information... Done
[16:08] <nomic> E: Couldn't find package build-essential
[16:08] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, my files are going to take an hour or so to finish copying to the exthdd. In the meantime, though, I have one more question that shouldn't take another hour. How do I install an efficient DVD decoder to sync my DVDs? Do you know?
[16:08] <enyc> g0th: you might need to do a "fixboot" on the partition from recovery disk... don't know!
[16:08] <lardarse> !pastebin | nomic
[16:08] <Ubotwo> nomic: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[16:08] <MasterShrek> !ssh | braaaaains
[16:09] <Ubotwo> braaaaains: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[16:09] <Guest199> ok, how about this one, say i dual boot linux and windows each ont hier own HDD, say i want to use the windows drive as a HDD in a vm, when it boots in vm, it gives me grub error 21, is there any way i can boot it up?
[16:09] <Pici> beni: I'm not sure, I'd just search dpkg -S or apt-file for webster and see what package its in.
[16:09] <Atomic_UE> lardarse, for something that is just going to be used as a straight file dump and nothing more fat32 is better, ntfs for this purpose would just have all these extra features that wouldn't be useful
[16:09] <nomic>  sudo apt-get install build-essential doesn't work anymore
[16:09] <atlfalcons866> whats more secure truecrypt or pgp
[16:09] <nomic> ?
[16:10] <MasterShrek> nomic, sudo apt-get update   first?
[16:10] <lardarse> seeing as grub is becoming a popular topic in here: how do i boot to windows in safe mode, once grub is setup for dual booting?
[16:10] <enyc> Atomic_UE: only trouble can be that FAT32 does not allow files over 4gb
[16:10] <g0th> ency: how does that work?
[16:10] <nomic> updat is a package lardarse?
[16:10] <arghh2d2> I've been reading man page for adduser but i cant quite figure out how to add a user with administration priveledges from command line.  Is this possibe?
[16:10] <nomic> update
[16:10] <MrPrayer> anyone?? Help me with installing ubuntu on Flash USB stick 8G??
[16:10] <MasterShrek> lardarse, after you choose windows, hold f8 i believe
[16:10] <nomic> erm
[16:10] <nomic> ok
[16:10] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, that sir, I wouldn't know....I've yet to play too much with dvds apart from just getting them to run so i can watch them
[16:10] <g0th> http://rafb.net/p/yQ3Xgb69.html
[16:10] <MasterShrek> !install | MrPrayer
[16:10] <lardarse> nomic: apt-get needs to know what it's doing with the list of packages that you are telling it about
[16:10] <Ubotwo> MrPrayer: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[16:10] <g0th> that's my menu.lst
[16:10] <lardarse> this is the first word after apt-get
[16:10] <lardarse> so update means update
[16:10] <lardarse> install means install something
[16:11] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, okay.
[16:11] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, my last spindle of cds i bought over a yr ago is still lasting me :P
[16:11] <lardarse> and there's other commands that can eb sent to apt-get as well
[16:11] <MrPrayer> :D thanks
[16:11] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, haha.
[16:11] <spikeb> MrPrayer, i found this tutorial http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/09/28/usb-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon-install/
[16:11] <nomic> its doing a big update whats that
[16:11] <lardarse> $ sudo apt-get install build-essential
[16:11] <lardarse> that should work
[16:11] <g0th> also I have an entry chainload into grub2 what is that? can I remove that entry?
[16:11] <nomic> i know
[16:11] <Atomic_UE> enyc, fat32 does, fat16 doesn't
[16:11] <lardarse> but don't type the $
[16:11] <nomic> but it didn'ty
[16:12] <MasterShrek> g0th, if you dont use it then probably
[16:12] <lardarse> can you use the pastebin to paste the error message?
[16:12] <joerack> well whatcha know... my problem was solved
[16:12] <Atomic_UE> enyc, .....i think....now u got me wondering.....i can't remember now....it to late... :S
[16:12] <joerack> thanks guys
[16:12] <furman_> i right clicked and removed network manager from panel in 7.10, how do i get it back?
[16:12] <nomic> ok is fine now
[16:12] <nomic> ty
[16:12] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, well, since I think I basically know what to do with the partitioning and reinstallation, I think I'm going to go to bed and finish when I wake up. But first, when it comes to actually upgrading to Gutsy, I will have to boot into the 5gig root / right? Not /home?
[16:12] <MrPrayer> @spikeb, that's what I found. But still failed
[16:12] <spikeb> MrPrayer, darn. that's about as much as i know on the subject.
[16:13] <enyc> Atomic_UE: I dont believe you... ;-)  4gb limit still im sure
[16:13] <nomic> i am so glad my windows disk is a coffee mat now
[16:13] <MasterShrek> furman_, doesnt reappear when you restart x?
[16:13] <lardarse> furman_: add the notification area
[16:13] <lardarse> it should appear again
[16:13] <MrPrayer> :D May be I have to buy another Flash thumb :P ..anyway thanks
[16:13] <KalEl> atlfalcons866, thanks for that link it explains stuffs well. seems it's the philosophy which is different - FAT tends to allocate files consecutively, whereas ext3 tries to leave a lot of space between them.
[16:13] <foug> Is there any way to make nautilus use less RAM/memory?
[16:13] <han_> Does anybody know how to connect itunes to itunes shop
[16:14] <atlfalcons866> KalEL: your welcome
[16:14] <lardarse> !itunes
[16:14] <Ubotwo> itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[16:14] <furman_> ah, notification area, thanks
[16:14] <Vov4ik> PLEASE HELP!!! When i'm trying to install mysql, linux prints me that command: -bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
[16:14] <LinuxInsid1> XMMS  i like it
[16:14] <cberlo> Hi folks.
[16:14] <gluonman> enyc, there's a 4gb limit on FAT32?
[16:14] <Pici> Vov4ik: What command are you using?
[16:14] <anabelle> how do i login to ssh using a username like<EMAIL_ADDRESS>?
[16:14] <Vov4ik> PLEASE HELP!!! When i'm trying to install mysql, linux prints me that text: "-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('", what i'm doing incorrect x(
[16:14] <enyc> gluonman: yes... on filesize
[16:15] <Pici> anabelle: ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[16:15] <lardarse> furman_: you can also go system > administration > network to configure it more fully
[16:15] <gluonman> enyc, that won't work for me.
[16:15] <Vov4ik> mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('yourpassword');
[16:15] <cberlo> Banging my head against a wall here with a wine printing problem.  Where the heck do you find the WINE config file in Ubuntu??  I need to set the "afmdirs" somehow.
[16:15] <enyc> gluonman: ?what?
[16:15] <g0th> so how do I boot vista?
[16:15] <arghh2d2> this is freekin weird, i installed ubuntu but it never asked me for a first user name and password, could this be because i installed over a previous installation?
[16:15] <han_> I know but I do it with Codeweavers works wel but we can not buy music
[16:15] <enyc> g0th: /msg me your "fdisk -l" output
[16:15] <g0th> Oriona: why does grub reboot when I select the vista entry instead of booting vista
[16:15] <notv> does gutsy come with a real time kernal out of the box?
[16:15] <Pici> Vov4ik: you need to be in mysql to do that, you cant type it at the bash prompt.
[16:15] <notv> or do i have to install it?
[16:15] <gluonman> enyc, I was the one having the conversation with Atomic-UE about reformatting my exthdd from ntfs to FAT32.
[16:15] <pawan> how to automatically login
[16:15] <Atomic_UE> enyc, ah yes my bad...i remember now...fat32 has 4gb file size limit, fat16 has 2gb partition size limit
[16:15] <MasterShrek> han_, for buying music on itunes you may need to use wine to run it (sry i never use itunes so i dont know for sure if its installable)
[16:16] <gluonman> enyc, but I'm going to need to save things larger than 4gb.
[16:16] <genii> Pici: you beat me to it about bash/sql prompts diffs
[16:16] <cberlo> pawan:  usually check the "Login screen" options
[16:16] <Vov4ik> user@ubuntu:/$ mysql -u root
[16:16] <Vov4ik> ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[16:16] <Vov4ik> user@ubuntu:/$
[16:16] <kkathman> pawan you just set that up in your settings
[16:16] <enyc> gluonman: yes... and you sauid to me "that wont work for me"
[16:16] <arghh2d2> this is freekin weird, i installed ubuntu but it never asked me for a first user name and password, could this be because i installed over a previous installation? anybody?
[16:16] <enyc> gluonman: darn ;-)
[16:16] <notv> does anyone know if gutsy comes with a real time kernel?
[16:16] <Pici> Vov4ik: sudo mysql
[16:16] <Vov4ik> Pici x(
[16:16] <lardarse> pawan: i should remember this... i did it 2 days ago... hang on
[16:16] <cberlo> pawan: Make that "login windows"
[16:16] <Pici> notv: iirc, no.
[16:16] <gluonman> enyc, if not FAT32, than what should I go for?
[16:16] <Vov4ik> user@ubuntu:/$ sudo mysql
[16:16] <Vov4ik> ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[16:16] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, in that case stick with ntfs, which allows for files over 4gb
[16:16] <genii> Vov4ik: Please read the man pages for mysqladmin
[16:16] <MasterShrek> arghh2d2, strange, but just add a user upon rebooting
[16:16] <Pici> genii: good idea
[16:17] <pawan> hi
[16:17] <lardarse> pawan: system > administration > login window > security
[16:17] <MasterShrek> notv, yes, its in the repos
[16:17] <kkathman> pawan I think its under system-administration-login
[16:17] <enyc> flugger: ext3 works fine... depends what you want to read it back with
[16:17] <whatshisname> even ubuntu studio has no rt kernel out of the box.. not fully preemptive anyway, just low latency desktop.
[16:17] <arghh2d2> MasterShrek i need to adduser with admin priveledges, how can i do that?
[16:17] <notv> pici whats iirc?
[16:17] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, 4gb file limit totally slipped my mind for fat32...i always forget about it :P
[16:17] <foug> Is there any way to make nautilus use less RAM/memory?
[16:17] <lardarse> notv: if i rememeber correctrly
[16:17] <Pici> notv: If I Recall Correctly
[16:18] <pawan> thanks
[16:18] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, but wait, what I'm thinking of are my films that I store. Would I be able to save them to a FAT32 hdd if the individual files in the overall package are under 4gb? Or does the whole package have to be under tha tlimit?
[16:18] <lardarse> the r can be either
[16:18] <MasterShrek> arghh2d2, ooh good point, if you cant log in as root because of no root password, you may be kinda screwed, u may have to load the livecd and do a chroot
[16:18] <LinuxInsid1> close what u needn't
[16:18] <Pici> lardarse: no, if it was either it would be an E. :p
[16:18] <lardarse> yeah yeah
[16:18] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, each file u put onto the hdd needs to be 4gb or less for fat 32
[16:19] <arghh2d2> MasterShrek i logged in as root through the failsafe terminal and i can create users, just cant seem to get one with admin priv
[16:19] <Flynsarmy> Can gparted resize partitions?
[16:19] <KalEl> atlfalcons866, it seems it is more upto the OS than the file system, to allocate files close together, or scatter them so that defragmentation is not needed.
[16:19] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, it won't work. I'm going to be installing World of Warcraft and stuff like that, so there's no way.
[16:19] <cberlo> Has anyone correctly configured Ubuntu with WINE to print?
[16:19] <lardarse> Flynsarmy: which filesystem is the partition you are trying to resize?
[16:19] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, anything larger than 4gb will stop at 4gb
[16:19] <MasterShrek> arghh2d2, run visudo as root and add an entry that mimics the entry for root, except with your user's username
[16:19] <atlfalcons866> KalEL: its mostly the file system
[16:19] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, as an alternative to FAT32, is there anything else besides ntfs that you would recommend?
[16:20] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, stick with the ntfs then, that's your next best seeing as there is no real widely supported fs that is all read/write etc
[16:20] <atlfalcons866> KalEL: if it was up to the os then ntfs would fragment as much as fat32
[16:20] <arghh2d2> MasterShrek thanks, i'll give it a shot
[16:20] <Flynsarmy> lardarse: its the swap. it's too small. every time i try to hybernate my laptop it says not enough swap space :(
[16:20] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, okay.
[16:20] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, not really...there ARE alternatives and better things no doubt
[16:20] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, are you on #ubuntu often?
[16:20] <Flynsarmy> lardarse windows is at the start of the hdd for about 220gb, then there's a 500mb swap space then 20gigs or so ubuntu
[16:20] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, but for something that needs to be compatible with ms windows, no there isn't
[16:20] <lardarse> Flynsarmy: if there's space on the hard drive, you can create another swap partition
[16:21] <KalEl> alteregoisback, exactly... that's what i am wondering... but from the article i get the impression that the file allocation structure is same, what matters is when a new file comes where you put it
[16:21] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, I don't think it needs to be compatible with Windows.
[16:21] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, yeh every now and again...i took a break until i got gutsy :P
[16:21] <Flynsarmy> lardarse: Using gparted without losing any data on the hdd? (only about 2-3gigs of the windows partition has anything on it. its freshly installed)
[16:21] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, well if you're gonna put WoW on it I would of thought it would
[16:21] <pawan> what is better compiz or beryl
[16:22] <leelee986321> hey ya MasterShreck
[16:22] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, but there's also wine to run WoW.
[16:22] <cberlo> pawan:  compiz-fusion
[16:22] <pawan> how to install it
[16:22] <lardarse> Flynsarmy: i have no experience with gparted.... but if you're freshly installed with both windows and ubuntu, and you have the time
[16:22] <cberlo> pawan:  gutsy
[16:22] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, i suppose
[16:22] <pawan> yes
[16:22] <Pici> pawan: its already installed on Gutsy
[16:22] <cberlo> pawan:  it's all in there.  Just go to appearance and enable it
[16:22] <Pici> !ccsm | pawan
[16:22] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, although there are the uncommon occasions in which I will take my exthdd and hook it up to a computer somewhere to play WoW.
[16:22] <Flynsarmy> lardarse: What partitioning software do you recommend?
[16:22] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, but if u ever want to stick that hdd into a windows machine it'd be handy if windows could read it
[16:23] <Ubotwo> pawan: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Gutsy(7.10) install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' - A new option will appear in your appearance properties - see also !compiz
[16:23] <lardarse> Flynsarmy: then you may want to consider reinstalling everything... but many people consider it a pain in the ass to reinstall operating systems
[16:23] <thouters> I want to install ubuntu on LVM, without having it install its bootloader.  this because its on a macbook, with a 4 partition limit.  I do have a grub on the disk that i want to use.  is this safe to do? will the alternate install ask and finish gracefully without having installed lilo/grub?
[16:23] <lardarse> and i can't recommend anything because i didn't resize any partitions
[16:23] <pawan> how to enable it
[16:23] <lardarse> when installing ubuntu
[16:23] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, right. I'll just stick to ntfs for now, and maybe I'll learn about something else later. And if I have any problems I'll just log onto #ubuntu and ask someone (you if you're on).
[16:23] <bulmer> Flynsarmy-> you can allocate swap spaces from your ubuntu partition, pick the spaces at the end
[16:23] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, yeh no worries
[16:23] <cberlo> pawan:  Under the Visual tab, select the bottom option.
[16:24] <leelee986321> i finally got Compiz to run on Kubuntu
[16:24] <Blinny> Morning! Can one skip a release - e.g. go straight from Edgy to Gutsy ?
[16:24] <cberlo> pawan: Sorry, don't have access to gutsy just now; on a terminal server.
[16:24] <g0th> ency: can we continue talk here
[16:24] <lalalalo> hi
[16:24] <MasterShrek> Blinny, probably, but its not recommended
[16:24] <leelee986321> but man the 32 bit version has som sluggs in it lol
[16:24] <lalalalo> any1 can hear me?
[16:24] <Flynsarmy> bulmer: so i'd have 2 swap spaces. one in the middle of my hdd and one right at the end. wouldn't that be a bad thing?
[16:24] <gluonman> Atomic_UE but now I'm just making chit-chat, so I'm actually going to hit the sack (finally) and finish what I started when I wake up.  Welcome to #ubuntu!
[16:24] <cberlo> Blinny: I wouldn't recommend that, but you could just change your apt sources.list and do a dist-upgrade
[16:24] <g0th> :(
[16:24] <lalalalo> thax FluxD
[16:24] <leelee986321> yea lalalalo
[16:24] <Blinny> MasterShrek: So, if you wanted to stay just on the LTS track, you should go in baby steps, from LTS to the mid-release, then to the next LTS ?
[16:25] <kslater> Looking for someone with some experience with Gutsy and LDAP client authentication. Any takers?
[16:25] <thompa> anyone running on intel macbook, i have some dvd issues
[16:25] <lalalalo> =))
[16:25] <lalalalo> nice name huh
[16:25] <dgjones> Blinny, no, you need to upgrade from Edgy to Feisty then to Gutsy
[16:25] <Blinny> dgjones: Thank you.
[16:25] <lalalalo> hi lardarse
[16:25] <lalalalo> so wat we up to?
[16:25] <Blinny> Crap.
[16:25] <MasterShrek> Blinny, i would, the changes in between would probably be too great to take in one large step, also gutsy isnt lts fyi
[16:25] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, yeh sleep time for me too
[16:25] <pawan> hello
[16:25] <gluonman> Atomic_UE, good night!
[16:25] <Atomic_UE> gluonman, have a good one
[16:25] <atlfalcons866> how can i shred files
[16:26] <lalalalo> u mean shread?
[16:26] <lalalalo> shred?
[16:26] <atlfalcons866> yes
[16:26] <Blinny> MasterShrek: Yeah I know - Just trying to plan a server and I'd like to stay on the LTS train.
[16:26] <SlimeyPete> atlfalcons866: there's a util called "shred" iirc
[16:26] <lalalalo> wat files?
[16:26] <SlimeyPete> !shred
[16:26] <Ubotwo> Factoid shred not found
[16:26] <Blinny> I'm thinking April.
[16:26] <Atomic_UE> atlfalcons866, shred -fuz FILE
[16:26] <atlfalcons866> ok

[16:38] <emmajane> flynsarmy: Support will come though.
[16:38] <emmajane> flynsarmy: I waited a few months for my (dell) wireless card to get support, but it's good now.
[16:38] <shearn89> emmajane: did you try ndiswrapper?

[16:40] <shearn89> GuHHH: np.
[16:40] <emmajane> flynsarmy: You might find some helpful clues in there. At worst you should report that you'd like to have the problem solved as well.
[16:40] <Morrissey> FluxD, not OOTB, but most will need to compile the newest alsa packages ... especially for the HD Audio devices
[16:41] <emmajane> flynsarmy: Popular problems often get solved. :)
[16:41] <Flynsarmy> emmajane: Where do you report problems like this? (Sorry, new to linux in general)
[16:41] <shearn89> Whats the difference between HD Audio and normal Audio? Higher bitrate?
[16:41] <s00p> Morrissey: I wonder why though. Slackware's older kernels support it.
[16:41] <s00p> 2.6.20 under slackware has no real problems.
[16:41] <FluxD> Morrissey: how long does it take for the alsa packages to comr into ubuntu
[16:41] <emmajane> flynsarmy: Seeing as you're using Ubuntu I'd add a post to that thread.
[16:42] <Morrissey> FluxD, the time it takes for the community to add it to repos

[16:42] <shearn89> kidbuntu: you need the webmail and yahoo extensions.

[16:48] <[CroX]> Morrissey, Yeah
[16:48] <jon_> do i have to compile it?
[16:48] <shearn89> [CroX]: try adding it to the launch at startup programs.
[16:48] <MasterShrek> no jon_ you shouldnt have to, but you can
[16:48] <[CroX]> shearn89, Tried that already. If by startup programs you mean session?
[16:48] <shearn89> FluxD: no - i'm thinking command-line. I used to have one, but i think i uninstalled it.
[16:49] <jon_> id rather not, can you tell me what exactly i need to get from the repos mastershrek?
[16:49] <MasterShrek> jon_, its in the repos, search synaptic for it, it should look just like your normal kernel package but with -rt at the end, make sure you get the modules, and headers and stuff
[16:49] <shearn89> [CroX]: yeah - isn't there an option to launch stuff on login?
[16:49] <Morrissey> [CroX], ok, not sure where it is located, but let me take a wild guess ... see if "ln -s /usr/bin/metacity /home/<username>/.gnome/Autostart" works (that last dir has to exsists ... Im using kde, so not sure)
[16:49] <caner> i can not get my usb stick detected? when its plugged while the machine is booting up i get an error "missing operating system"!
[16:49] <shearn89> caner: plug it in afterwards?
[16:50] <jon_> i think the problem is i dont know what a normal kernel package is
[16:50] <shearn89> caner: you probs need to change your bios boot order.
[16:50] <[CroX]> Morrissey, Sure this is supported with Gnome? Because that sounds just like session-configs.
[16:50] <kurumin> hey
 i just cant get it detected.
[16:50] <kurumin> hey suckers
[16:50] <Morrissey> [CroX], it is ... its just the konsole way. But you said that session-configs didn't work
[16:50] <shearn89> kurumin: ?
[16:50] <TaBo> guy's say.. for voodo3 screen card, what i can download.. for a better desktop dissing
 actually the main problem is that i cant get it detected. do you have any advice for this? the problem started with gutsy
[16:50] <jon_> mastershrek  would it be called linux-rt?
[16:51] <Morrissey> [CroX], unfortunally, I don't know where gnome keeps its Autostart bindings
[16:51] <MasterShrek> jon_, probably, im not 100% cuz im using a custom kernel, let me check for you
[16:51] <kurumin> do somebody here have ubuntu???
[16:51] <[CroX]> Morrissey, Ahh.
[16:51] <shearn89> caner: see if its listed in /media
[16:51] <neol> Morrissey: in home/config

[16:52] <shearn89> caner: try tail -f /var/log/dmesg
 but it can be detected if it is already plugged while the computer is booting up

[17:05] <TaBo> ok, thanks
[17:05] <Gecko> when i typed vncserver it said that it was running on machine name:2
[17:05] <cberlo> MasterShrek: They're dead in there, and this is a Ubuntu-specific issue I'm trying to figure out.  I can't print from WINE because I don't have "AFM" files and no matter what config I try change it does nothing.  Any help?
[17:05] <Gecko> but there is nothing on :0, :1, or :2
[17:05] <Gecko> i only want it running on :0 anyway
[17:05] <TaBo> mmm
[17:05] <cox> can anyone point me in the direction of changing my mouse pointer
[17:05] <MasterShrek> cberlo, get the afm files and put them where wine is looking for them is what i would say
[17:05] <TaBo> how can i identify
[17:05] <TaBo> ?
[17:05] <Gecko> i only want to control the desktop and log in remotely
[17:06] <MasterShrek> Gecko, use x11vnc, thats what i use, it keeps the desktop open so that when u log in, its exactly how you left it
[17:06] <Gecko> in fedora, the last time i installed it... it just worked like FM
[17:06] <shearn89> cox: isn't it in system -> prefs. -> mouse?
[17:06] <shearn89> cox: or something similar.
[17:06] <cberlo> MasterShrek: Ah, good idea!  Now.  Where the hell is it looking?  :)  No clue here, and no config file to change (or at least not one I've been able to find in the Ubuntu docs)
[17:06] <cox> shearn89: lol you would have thought I've looked everywhere
[17:06] <Gecko> MasterShrek, and when i apt-get that... it just owrks?
[17:06] <Gecko> or do i have to do anything else?
[17:06] <shearn89> cox: always happens to me....!
[17:06] <cox> Gecko: check out xtightvncserver
[17:07] <MasterShrek> Gecko, probably not, i have mine set up for auto login, and it runs x11vnc --forever after login. not sure of the ubuntu package for it though, my server is running slack (with fluxbox :))
[17:07] <osphy> is there a way to cp all deb files from gutsy to /var/cache/apt/archives ?

[17:10] <redheat> hi everyone
[17:10] <diana`> i have a question about bluetooth
[17:10] <MasterShrek> BlkGhost, you need to run vmware-config.pl again because you are running a new kernel
[17:10] <diana`> anyone know anything about it?
[17:11] <mwest> BlkGhost: the upgrade will have changed your kernel version, so you need to rebuild the vmware modules, as there unfortunately doesn't yet appear to be a packaged .deb of vmware for 7.10
[17:11] <cberlo> !wineps
[17:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wineps - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[17:11] <scratchme> Hi all.  I was wondering if there's a download manager about 10x better than KGet.  I noticed KGet has some major deficiencies.  Unable to edit properties of downloaded files in the queue, unable to rename the files, and a large list of other quirks I've found.
[17:11] <redheat> just a quick question about X-chat, how many channels can I join on a single server..I mean for example if I'm using irc.freenode.net, and I'm writing right now in Ubuntu can I open other channels as well beside this one
[17:11] <shearn89> pani_ale1: did you get it off the official website?
[17:11] <Flynsarmy> By alsa tools i mean alsa-drivers

[17:17] <shearn89> !paste | BlkGhost
[17:17] <ubotu> BlkGhost: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[17:19] <greedo_> when i do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xord, then xorg.conf contains vesa driver and improper keyboard configuration
[17:19] <MasterShrek> greedo_, it should ask you all sorts of questions about your hardware
[17:19] <greedo_> ok
[17:19] <shearn89> cox: cos its less graphical - on default install, it just starts up a black screen! check out my howto here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=549884

[17:49] <shearn89> okeefenokee: assuming your card is picked up...
[17:49] <magnetron> BlkGhost: if you ask your question it will be easier for the channel to help you
[17:49] <BlkGhost> after i download /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic do I have to install and configure ?
[17:49] <anas> hi all, sorry if my question is silly, but I'm connecting remotely to a server, I need to copy  text from a text file and paste it on a text editor on my local machine, I FTP is not installed. Can I copy the text from VI and paste it on my local machine?
[17:49] <magnetron> BlkGhost: how did you download it?
[17:50] <BlkGhost> app get
[17:50] <magnetron> BlkGhost: apt-get both installs and downloads the packages
[17:50] <okeefenokee> shearn89: Yep, there's always that...how would I check that?
[17:51] <shearn89> okeefenokee: if iwconfig shows a net adaptor with wireless extensions, you're good to go.
[17:51] <BlkGhost> magnetron What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
[17:51] <BlkGhost> kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/build/include]
[17:51] <Flynsarmy> Is there a way to fix ctrl++ in the termal to make it work? for some reason ctrl++ just prints an equals sign. Ctrl+- works though...

[17:52] <jamiejackson> whoops, context
[17:52] <ubotu> bqmassey: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[17:53] <Redbull> aiutoooooooooooo
[17:53] <shearn89> jamiejackson: its a code system: 1=read 3=write 5=execute, and the numbers add. the 3 digits are for sudo, you, and some other group.

[17:54] <shearn89> jamiejackson: for samba, you probs want 644 (i think), unless its read-only.
[17:54] <jc> is there a solution to automate your house for ubuntu with X10?
[17:54] <Redbull> aiuto
[17:54] <Redbull> flannel

[17:55] <Creed> I use XDMCP to login my my Ubuntu server's GUI (Gnome) but when I close/disconnect the XDMCP session I get logged off from the server. Is there any way i can keep the session going?
[17:55] <BlkGhost> magnetron can I check on the kernal modules ?
[17:55] <cox> does anyone know of an app that will modify fstab?
[17:55] <okeefenokee> btb, is the handling of wireless (configuring or hardware support) better in later distributions? I'm running Efty.
[17:55] <cox> as in a gui for mounting shares etc
[17:55] <zengen> I'm trying run a /home backup to my desktop using Duplicity with ' duplicity /home/ scp://user@server/backup1 ' and it's giving me an sftp attempt that fails instead of scp.  The format is right off the man page.  Anyone know what's wrong?
[17:55] <shearn89> okeefenokee: not sure - i updated from dapper to feisty, and all of a sudden my wireless worked...
[17:55] <zengen> err, my desktop pc
[17:55] <shearn89> okeefenokee: its a bit hit-and-miss.
[17:56] <cblack0> I have a gutsy box w/ two ethernet interfaces, one static and one set via dhcp. The system is using the wrong interface for default route (the static one), how do I specify which should be used for absolute default route w/o having to do a route cmd by hand on every boot?
[17:56] <jamiejackson> shearn89: so i can rw-, some other user in the group can r--, and anyone can r-- the external filesytem. correct?
[17:56] <magnetron> BlkGhost: i don't understand the question
[17:56] <BlkGhost> can I do a check to see what modules that are currently running
[17:56] <slestak> i have a mchine that i installed the with the server iso install a couple of years ago.  id like to change to profile to a desktop, so it will stop downloading the server kernels and such.  is that pretty easy?
[17:56] <BlkGhost> ?
[17:56] <Redbull> (join #ubuntu-it
[17:56] <magnetron> !modules | BlkGhost
[17:56] <ubotu> BlkGhost: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u »
[17:56] <shearn89> jamiejackson: i think that might be 611. You can also use "read-only = yes" in the smb.conf.
[17:56] <okeefenokee> shearn89: OK, let's just hope and pray!
[17:56] <magnetron> BlkGhost: i don't know
[17:57] <Flannel> slestak: yeah, its pretty simple.
[17:57] <Creed> I use XDMCP to login my my Ubuntu server's GUI (Gnome) but when I close/disconnect the XDMCP session I get logged off from the server. Is there any way i can keep the session going?
[17:57] <Flannel> Flynsarmy: yes
[17:57] <Flannel> Creed: What are you running on your server?    Just install the -generic kernel, and remove the -server metapackage(s)
[17:58] <magnetron> !ext2 | bqmassey
[17:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ext2 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[17:58] <shearn89> !ext3
[17:58] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[17:58] <Creed> Flannel, its a alternate CD install of Ubuntu 7.10 with gnome-desktop installed. Thing is, XDMCP is a remote X session, screen doesn't even know about it.
[17:58] <bqmassey> perfect, thanks shearn89
[17:58] <shearn89> it was ubotu really... he's a very nice bot...
[17:59] <shearn89> he dances pretty good to.
[17:59] <Flannel> Creed: Right.  But what sort of server things are you running that require X, let alone persistence of your X programs?
[17:59] <thx2000> So should i just give up trying to get a res of 1400x1050 to work w/ the proprietary legacy driver on my laptop, or can it be done?
[17:59] <drake> i am trying to install Efax Messenger 4.3 using wine, but it says the internet explorer version needs to be 5.0 or greater.  how can i upgrade internet explorer in wine?
[17:59] <Delvien> anyone know how to make VNC faster
[17:59] <Lordveda> !xorg source
[17:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xorg source - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:00] <jeward_> Okay, Gutsy on my maxed out Santa Rosa MacBook is awesome except the trackpad is waaaay too sensitive.  Is there a definitive place to go for fixing this?
[18:00] <Creed> Flannel, I want to use it as a thin client server that doesn't just kill the session once a user logs off.
[18:00] <Lordveda> !help
[18:00] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[18:00] <sparrw> Delvien: lower the color depth.  lower the resolution.  turn off unnecessary graphical stuff on the remote machine.  increase your bandwidth.
[18:00] <bofh80> Creed go buy some sun ray love :D
[18:00] <bqmassey> um.  fs-driver.org does ext3 right?
[18:00] <bofh80> Creed, i find XDMCP to be the best in simple thin client tech
[18:00] <BlkGhost> somone help me getting vmware 6 working with Gutsy ????
[18:01] <shearn89> bqmassey: think so.
[18:01] <Creed> bofh80, sun ray love? Im sitting outside drinking pineapple smoothies :)
[18:01] <bofh80> Creed, whether it can do what you want or not is another questions
[18:01] <bofh80> Creed, lol, as in SUN lol. you know SUN
[18:01] <drake> anyone know how to upgrade the internet explorer in wine?
[18:01] <bofh80> Creed, if your in the UK not he paper ok :P
[18:01] <Steffan> Hello!
[18:01] <Flannel> Creed: What sorts of things are you looking to keep around?
[18:01] <Flannel> drake: You might have more luck in #winehq
[18:02] <Delvien> sparrw how would i increase my bandwidth
[18:02] <shearn89> drake: you'd have to download the latest .exe, and install it manually.
[18:02] <Creed> bofh80, it does the job but I want to be able to have the session keep going even after the user logs off. I want this so my parents can for example do something on the kitched thin client, then head outside and use that one and just resume where they left off.
[18:02] <bofh80> Flannel, his actual session,  i spose the same way Rdesktop (terminal services) works in windows
[18:02] <Creed> bofh80, lol
[18:02] <Steffan> I have some problems with gutsy.. i'm used some compiz effects
[18:02] <Steffan> with a nvidiacard
[18:02] <sparrw> Delvien: pay your ISP more
[18:02] <lgc_> Is it possible to change permissions of a FAT-32 partition?
[18:02] <Delvien> sparrw lol
[18:02] <sparrw> Delvien: i suggest the other options first
[18:02] <Steffan> After that I tried to use a second screen
[18:02] <Steffan> but, it failed
[18:02] <bofh80> Creed, yes, have you ever had the opertunuty to see SUN thin clients in action? with their little secure cards?
[18:02] <sparrw> lgc_: as a whole, yes.  change the permissions of its mount point.
[18:02] <deaddreamer> hello
[18:02] <Delvien> sparrw as far as graphical stuff, what would u suggest
[18:03] <jon_> can i get some assistance with ndiswrapper? i installed it as well as the xp driver but im not getting wireless access
[18:03] <sparrw> lgc_: of files, no.
[18:03] <deaddreamer> what is gdM?
[18:03] <deaddreamer> GDM
[18:03] <jon_> i rebooted and made sure i installed the headers
[18:03] <shearn89> Steffan: is your display normally fine without the effects?
[18:03] <Creed> Flannel, I want to be able to VNC in or do something similair and once I disconnect/power off the thin client I dont want to lose the session.
[18:03] <drake> what version of Windows is Wine bases off of (xp, 2000, etc)?
[18:03] <databuddy> Creed first they cant sign out i think
[18:03] <sparrw> Delvien: turn down your color depth.  from 32/24/fullcolor to 8 or even 4 bit.  that will speed it up tremendously
[18:03] <Flannel> bofh80: I was asking because with screen it would be doable (say he wants torrent apps or whatnot).  There's a fundamental difference between the way rdesktop works (connecting to a session already started) and XDMCP (literally logging in just like a regular user)
[18:03] <Dima50_> So do anyone know how to desable addition end of words in Open Office
[18:03] <Dima50_> ?
[18:03] <bofh80> Creed, again, XDMCP is probably what you want to look at, i tell you what, since i want the functionality you describe as well, i'll check out whether it hands session saving :d
[18:03] <databuddy> secondly you need to use not the usual vnc
[18:03] <lgc_> sparr, then how can I delete a file, for example?
[18:03] <shearn89> jon_: yeah - does your card come up in iwconfig?
[18:03] <Creed> bofh80, I use homemade thin clients :)
[18:03] <Steffan> shearn89, yes...
[18:03] <Delvien> sparrw is there a configuration file i can make these changes to?
[18:03] <drake> what version of windows is wine based from?
[18:03] <sparrw> deaddreamer: its the program that starts X and displays the login prompt, then gives the X server to whoever logs in
[18:04] <shearn89> Steffan: have you installed the nvidia drivers?
[18:04] <Steffan> But i like the effects
[18:04] <Lordveda> !search <xorg source code>
[18:04] <ubotu> Found: ppa, 11:57] <ubotu> strigi, roadnav, sources.list-#ubuntu-effects, qvm86, repos, alsa-source, sources, kernel-source, shortcuts
[18:04] <deaddreamer> to install gdm skins do i need some extra program?
[18:04] <databuddy> i think its X11vnc or something like that
[18:04] <Steffan> but the effects use another nvidia driver
[18:04] <databuddy> X11vncserver ?
[18:04] <bofh80> Flannel, i digress, Rdesktop does exactly that too  (literally logging in just like a regular user) <  a session does not have to be already started, that's remote assistance and there's a big difference
[18:04] <Steffan> when I use that driver..
[18:04] <Creed> bofh80, keeping the session open is what I want, so if someone starts listening to music (its tied with a house-wise audio system) and shuts down the thin client, the music continues to play.
[18:04] <sparrw> lgc_: mount the drive as a user instead of root, or have root pass mount parameters that make it globally writable.  i believe you could also change the permissions or ownership of the mount point.
[18:04] <Steffan> Ubuntu is working ok
[18:04] <shearn89> Steffan: try in #ubuntu-effects - may be able to help better.
[18:04] <Steffan> for a while
[18:04] <sparrw> Delvien: what remote desktop protocol?  which client?  which server?
[18:04] <shearn89> also !enter | steffan
[18:04] <bofh80> Creed, woohah, i don't even think SUn can do that.
[18:04] <jon_> shearn89 im not sure...should it say ar5007eg?
[18:05] <Creed> bofh80, lol
[18:05] <shearn89> jon_: i think it would say something like wlan0 (blah blah blah)
[18:05] <Delvien> sparrw vncviewer with i think vnc-server running on the one im connecting to
[18:05] <Steffan> !enter | steffan
[18:05] <jon_> yea
[18:05] <riotkittie> deaddreamer: no. you can 1 - drag/drop archives onto the logon manager   or 2 - just extract the archives to seperate folders in /usr/share/etc/gdm/themes (i *think*)
[18:05] <deaddreamer> ah ok
[18:05] <jon_> IEEE 802.11 g essid: off/any etc
[18:05] <bofh80> Creed, in that case, you would have WINAMP for say, running on the server, and use the thin client, to Remote Control it. not winamp rather XMMS or somethign that has remote control features. i don't know which linux music app can handle this
[18:05] <deaddreamer> ill check
[18:05] <deaddreamer> thanks :D
[18:05] <Creed> bofh80, it works great if I log in locally to the server and the thin clients connect to the already existant session, but I want to be able to login...wait, how can I make it so a user gets logged on automatically (I dont mind security issues)?
[18:06] <FluxD> Ho do u uninstall something installed using an abcd.sh file?
[18:06] <shearn89> jon_: yeah - its recognise.
[18:06] <ThamHKI> Aew galera, alguem sabe me dizer qual pacote eu instalo pra poder colocar widget no meu gnome!!! ??? to usando ubuntu 7.10 !!
[18:06] <shearn89> *recognised.
[18:06] <bofh80> Creed, there is an automatic login option in the login options :)
[18:06] <riotkittie> errr /usr/share/gdm/themes   dunno how i got an etc in there, deaddreamer

[18:06] <jon_> shearn89 great, where should i go from here?
[18:06] <sparrw> Delvien: open the menu in vncviewer (f8 i think), turn off auto-whatever, then turn down the color depth
[18:06] <deaddreamer> hehe ok thanks riotkittie
[18:06] <Creed> bofh80, I only see a username field, no password? Does it fill that it itself?
[18:06] <FluxD> Ho do u uninstall something installed using an abcd.sh file?
[18:06] <shearn89> jon_: it should be working - can you see any access points?
[18:06] <lgc_> sparr, what do you mean by 'root pass mount parameters'?
[18:06] <FoSsiL> anyone using amule? what is up with ther servers? i cant seem to connect to anyone of them
[18:06] <Lordveda> would the xorg-dev package be sufficient for the via driver to be compiled?
[18:07] <bofh80> Creed, i don' think it cares about the password
[18:07] <Creed> FluxD, depends, what did you install?
[18:07] <Delvien> sparrw i have to edit those options every time tho
[18:07] <sparrw> Delvien: or from the command line do "-AutoSelect=0 -LowColourLevel 1"
[18:07] <jon_> shearn89 it says access point not-associated
[18:07] <Creed> bofh80, alright, let me try rebooting and see if it works.
[18:07] <FluxD> Creed: a program called ssl explorer
[18:07] <bofh80> Creed, try it, other wise you might find you can set the password to nothing with the cmd line :)
[18:07] <shearn89> jon_: try "iwlist scan", and see if it picks up your AP.
[18:07] <Whitor> FluxD: YOu get someone who understands scripting to read the .sh file and figure out what it did
[18:07] <sparrw> lgc_: mount /dev/somefatdevice /media/themountpoint -o mount_options_that_change_global_permissions
[18:07] <bofh80> Creed, i believe you will need to do a full restart as restarting X will not cause the auto login i do not beleive
[18:07] <bofh80> Creed, i use that feature in work :S
[18:07] <sainzeo> does anyone know how to blank the screen of a remote desktop through ubuntu?
[18:08] <FluxD> Whitor,  Creed : For some reason I cant even open the sh file in gedit
[18:08] <Creed> bofh80, yeah, full restart :( That means Ill get booted off IRC...stupid proxy.
[18:08] <bofh80> Creed, aww ;p
[18:08] <lgc_> sparr, OK, thanks.
[18:08] <Whitor> FluxD: permissions ?
[18:08] <jon_> shearn89 its listing up three different networks
[18:08] <sparrw> Delvien: most vnc servers have an option to force all clients to use a lower quality setting.  investigate that as well
[18:08] <lardarse> is it possible to do something similar to windows' "internet connection sharing" in ubuntu?
[18:08] <redheat> shearn89, sorry for bothering you again..
[18:08] <Whitor> FluxD:  in a terminal do a less abcd.sh
[18:08] <sparrw> lardarse: yes.  NAT via iptables
[18:08] <FluxD> Whitor: gedit says character encoding error
[18:08] <shearn89> jon_: cool. you should be able to use network-manager (or the applet in the panel) to connect.
[18:09] <shearn89> redheat: go ahead.
[18:09] <redheat> can I ask you one more thing, sorry for bugging you with my questions
[18:09] <lardarse> sparrw: hmm?
[18:09] <Whitor> FluxD: use less
[18:09] <redheat> should I do it in the private channel or here the public one
[18:09] <Whitor> 'less'

[18:11] <deaddreamer> i have a tar.gz file, its a gdm theme, what do i do with it? extract it? just move it to the themes folder? im confused :S riotkittie
[18:11] <FluxD> shearn89: not a big fan of terminal based :)
[18:11] <Creedence> hi guys... I am trying to run a program under wine that requires the internet. I get no responses from within the program. Is there something special to do?
[18:11] <bofh80> jon_, if you click on it, do you see the wireless networks listed?
[18:11] <shearn89> jon_: try left-clicking, then choosing an AP. You may lose your IRC.
[18:11] <jon_> i must be missing something
[18:11] <bofh80> jon_, that's single clicking :P
[18:11] <shearn89> jon_: sorry, *will lose your IRC.
[18:11] <redheat> shear89 how do I go pm?
[18:12] <redheat> damn I never used this stuff in ages..so sorry about this
[18:12] <FluxD> Whitor: I got kate when I searched for kwrite
[18:12] <bofh80> jon_, if you click on the computer icon, d you see and option that says "manual configuration"
[18:12] <redheat> it is so embarrasing
[18:12] <ThamHKI> Please, anybody can say for me where i get more themes for my ubuntu 7.10??
[18:12] <jon_> indeed i do bofh80
[18:12] <FluxD> ThamHKI: gnom-look.org
[18:12] <FluxD> ThamHKI: gnome-look.org
[18:12] <bofh80> jon_, but not the wireless networks in the same list?
[18:12] <ThamHKI> FluxD, thx for all!
[18:12] <ray_> Hello
[18:12] <jon_> and i went through the properties and set my wpa to math the router
[18:13] <ray_> Any free geniouses available ?
[18:13] <sn0> psy your welcome
[18:13] <deaddreamer> how do i grant myself permissions to read/write anywhere on my hdd? :S
[18:13] <lardarse> sparrw: refering to that post... if my internet connection is eth1, and my connection to the rest of the house is eth0... then i want eth0 in step 1 and eth1 in step 2?
[18:13] <jon_> bofh80 when i left click i see manual configuration and wired network
[18:13] <jon_> that is all
[18:13] <deaddreamer> it doesnt let me copy/paste :(
[18:13] <BlkGhost> when setting up vmware ut keeps using /tmp/hope/vmware-any-any-update113/vmblock-only   how do I get it to use the new kernal info ?
[18:13] <shearn89> jon_: try right-click, and "enable wireless"
[18:13] <Creedence> hi guys... I am trying to run a program under wine that requires the internet. I get no responses from within the program. Is there something special to do?
[18:13] <bofh80> jon_,  i see, and when you go into manual configuration, your wireless adapter is ticked and available ? along with the rest of the options too i guesS?
[18:13] <chippy> can anyone see a globe using Opera http://freeearth.poly9.com/  i just see the controls, (works ok in ff)
[18:13] <riotkittie> deaddreamer: the easiest way > go to System Menu > Administration > Login Window > screen with all the logins, and just drag your .tar.gz onto that and it should install.
[18:13] <eric> does anyone know a good program/script that will delete all of the duplicate music that I have in a folder? (recursively)
[18:14] <jon_> yes bofh80
[18:14] <BlkGhost> when setting up vmware ut keeps using  2.6.x kernel build system.
[18:14] <BlkGhost> make -C /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/build/include/ how do I get it to use the new kernal info ?
[18:14] <slacker_nl> does anyone know why applications are installed in /usr/X11R6/bin on a ubuntu server install?
[18:14] <jon_> shearn89 i dont have enable wireless, only enable networking
[18:14] <deaddreamer> ah good, thanks
[18:14] <frojnd1> Hello there. I need to get this: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`   BUT since I don't have internet it needed to be .deb file. my kernel version is: 2.16.20-15-heneric  This is for feisty.  Can anyone get me this .deb ?? anyone ?
[18:14] <bofh80> eric LOL i was looking for something similar, like a file database, taht i could reference all the files i had, no one had any suggestions, but i'm sure there's something to do what you want
[18:14] <jamiejackson> any idea as to the problem here, smbmount from the command line uses the same credentials file, and does fine:
[18:14] <jamiejackson> jamie@mercury:~$ sudo mount -a
[18:14] <jamiejackson> ERROR: Unable to open credentials file!
[18:14] <Test_> lol
[18:14] <Test_> :D
[18:14] <Apocolypse> Anyone have a minute to answer some questions re: sound driver ?
[18:15] <bofh80> jon_, that's really strange, has that other chaep shearn89 just got your adapter working? during this boot? maybe a reboot?
[18:15] <jon_> nope
[18:15] <jon_> i have tried a reboot
[18:15] <bofh80> jon_, it's not enabled? have you enabled it now?
[18:15] <shearn89> jon_: try "modprobe ndiswrapper"
[18:15] <jon_> no its enabled, i meant its still notworking
[18:15] <bofh80> shearn89, oh it's through ndis :)
[18:15] <FluxD> Whitor: so in less filename I got this decoded script I guess but how do I igure out how to uninstall?
[18:15] <jamiejackson> or is there a better channel for fstab/smb stuff?
[18:15] <bofh80> shearn89, damn i have to do that everyday :)
[18:15] <shearn89> bofh80: yeah... damn tricky over IRC....
[18:15] <jon_> shearn89, already did that too
[18:15] <Apocolypse> Is there a channel for sound?
[18:16] <shearn89> jon_: does ndiswrapper -l
[18:16] <bofh80> jon_, did you run 'sudo .... ' ? :)
[18:16] <Whitor> FluxD: Thats why I said you need to find someone who knows how to read scripts
[18:16] <jon_> yep
[18:16] <jon_> ran sudo
[18:16] <shearn89> jon_: *list your drivers?
[18:16] <genii> ndiswrapper will only load if you gave it some firmware file to add already
[18:16] <lgc_> sparr, I modified /etc/fstab so that: /dev/sda2 on /musica_y_video type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev), to no avail. Chmod -R g+w apparently works, but just doesn't actually change the permits.
[18:16] <FluxD> Whitor: its some kind of java script
[18:16] <bofh80> jon_, cool, and ndiswrapper -l does what then? as shearn89 suggests?
[18:16] <Morfheus> bsera a voi tutti
[18:16] <shearn89> sorry, hit the enter button sent it all wonky.
[18:17] <jon_> net5211 driver installed
[18:17] <shearn89> !it | Morfheus
[18:17] <ubotu> Morfheus: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[18:17] <jon_> device (168C:001C) present (alternate driver: ath_pci)
[18:17] <ciro> hi all
[18:17] <redheat> shearn89, sorry about this, are you reading my PMs?
[18:17] <Whitor> FluxD: a .sh file is simply a script ... it can be any script ... I can make a .sh file that would delete everything on your computer ... there is really no way of knowing what any given .sh file will do to your system ... it really depends on what it is
[18:17] <ciro> whre can i find emerald
[18:17] <shearn89> redheat: not atm.
[18:17] <bofh80> shearn89, ohhh there's an alternate driver. i can't remember what your meant to do in this case
[18:17] <redheat> roger that
[18:17] <ciro> where can I find emerald-themes? i use gutsy
[18:17] <slacker_nl> frojnd1: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/allpackages and search for linux-header
[18:17] <shearn89> jon_: bofh80: you have to blacklist it.
[18:17] <FluxD> ciro: gnome-look.org
[18:17] <jon_> i think i disabled the alternate
[18:18] <jon_> how do i open the file with gedit
[18:18] <Whitor> FluxD: Some of the better written scripts take command line arguments... some even have uninstall arguments built into them ... most (I'm guessing) do not
[18:18] <ciro> FluxD, gnomelook?? if i do sudo apt-get install emerald-themes it says me that package doesnt exist
[18:18] <jon_> i think i tried the blacklist command from a site
[18:18] <Whitor> unfortunately ...
[18:18] <bofh80> jon_, the same way you'd do it with nano
[18:18] <slacker_nl> jon_: gedit $file :)
[18:18] <jon_> i mean, do you know what the line is?
[18:18] <FluxD> ciro: that site has lots of themes
[18:18] <Whitor> Makes oyu think before you run random abcd.sh files ....
[18:19] <jon_> i dont know what file it is for blacklist
[18:19] <frederic_> bonjour
[18:19] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[18:19] <FluxD> Whitor: I know its not virus :)
[18:19] <bofh80> jon_, you mean for blacklisting the alternate - shearn89 might know :D
[18:19] <Y0da^> Is the gnome menu able to be transparent, like the panels?
[18:19] <shearn89> jon_: echo 'blacklist ath_pci' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[18:19] <frederic_> est il possible de modifier l'interface graphique logiciel de ubuntu?
[18:19] <redheat> sorry shearn89, so sorry for bothering you my friend..I know youŕe busy so sorry for bothering you
[18:19] <Whitor> FluxD: it doens't have to be ... but it just did something to your system that oyu have no idea what it did ... Are you comfortable with that ?
[18:20] <FluxD> Whitor: I know what it does but I see no documentation anywhere on how to uninstall :/
[18:20] <apcolypse_> ns register piglet
[18:20] <jon_> i already tried it shearn89
[18:20] <apcolypse_> oops
[18:20] <shearn89> jon_: did it work?
[18:20] <Whitor> oh. What is it? where did you get it?
[18:20] <jon_> i dunno-is it blacklisted?
[18:20] <jon_> how do i tell/
[18:20] <shearn89> jon_: try "cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" and see if its at the end.
[18:20] <slacker_nl> FluxD: humor me, where did you download the script from? (so i can see it)
[18:20] <apcolypse_> Can someone help me fix my soundcard?
[18:21] <MenZa> shearn89: how about | grep <module name> :)?
[18:21] <okeefenokee> shearn89: Ho-hum...first problem., I entered my settings into /etc/network/interfaces but they aren't thereafter rebooting and typing iwconfig. How can I force them to be read?
[18:21] <jon_> yep, its definately blacklisted
[18:21] <slacker_nl> MenZa: or tail -1 /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

[18:22] <jon_> shucks, i sure wish madwifi had a driver for this card
[18:22] <pabloguion> ty ubotu
[18:22] <shearn89> okeefenokee: you have to make ndiswrapper load at startup... check the howto here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[18:22] <apcolypse_> I can't even get my system to let me log in as root
[18:22] <pabloguion> ummm.. he is a bot
[18:22] <sparrw> is compiz-fusion in gutsy ready for kde yet?  it didnt work last time i tried, should i stick with beryl for now?

[18:22] <pabloguion> ty riotkittie
[18:22] <jon_> shearn89 i did that as well
[18:22] <shearn89> MenZa: that would work, but it will be at the end of the file anyway...
[18:22] <riotkittie> yw, pabloguion

[18:22] <Raff7> hi everybody
[18:22] <Whitor> nm
[18:23] <theSamo> I used the sources.list replace method to update to Gutsy, i notices that this doesn't install all gutsy apps by default
[18:23] <Raff7> i'm trying to install ubuntu on ps3, but while loading the live
[18:23] <theSamo> how can i get the rest of gutsy apps
[18:23] <Raff7> the kboot just crash with the message
[18:23] <Tarkus> anyone know of something like a diagram that illustrates the structure of linux, and the desktop environment, window manager, etc.. and basically how everything is strung together? (i want to get a better basic understanding of this)
[18:23] <apcolypse_> Hello
[18:23] <bofh80> shearn89, woudl it hurt if jon tried to use the alternate driver instead? is he able to do that?
[18:23] <Raff7> ps3-ehci-driver sb_05: USB bus 1 deregistered
[18:23] <BlkGhost> is there a way to revert back to festy
[18:23] <apcolypse_> Could someone help me with some general questions/
[18:23] <shearn89> bofh80: i think that would be fine... jon_ would have to check the wifihowto...
[18:23] <apcolypse_> PLEASE !
[18:24] <shearn89> !ask
[18:24] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[18:24] <apcolypse_> My soundcard doesn't work.  LOL
[18:24] <apcolypse_> Let's start there.
[18:24] <jamiejackson> dang, asked my question in #samba: nothing but crickets
[18:24] <jon_> i dont think there is an alternate driver for the ar5007eg
[18:24] <shearn89> jamiejackson: nice one... I set up a samba server at home, so i may be able to help... Is it about the permissions?
[18:24] <chippy> can anyone see a globe using Opera http://freeearth.poly9.com/  i just see the controls, (works ok in ff)
[18:25] <apcolypse_> It's an Intel based sound card in a Toshiba A135 laptop Dual Core processor 2 gigs of ram
[18:25] <dannyboy> i hav a prolem with my sound....its installed and everything but its like if it was muted...what can i do about this?
[18:25] <jamiejackson> shearn89: it's about the credentials file
[18:25] <jamiejackson> i can get it to work from cmd line smbmount
[18:25] <jamiejackson> but not fstab
[18:25] <apcolypse_> Feel free to priv msg me if you can help
[18:25] <shearn89> jamiejackson: ooh. sounds a bit out of my knowledge range i'm afraid....
[18:25] <slacker_nl> BlkGhost: you mean downgrading ubuntu?
[18:25] <apcolypse_> This is frustrating
[18:25] <dannyboy> this only happens with 7.10....
[18:26] <jamiejackson> "sudo mount -a" gives: ERROR: Unable to open credentials file!
[18:26] <shearn89> jamiejackson: my know-how extends to a server that the family can write to to backup!
[18:26] <shearn89> jamiejackson: isn't smbmount deprecated?
[18:26] <jamiejackson> sheesh, i dunno
[18:26] <titanix88> ctrl+alt+backspace doesn't work in gutsy. how do i enable it?
[18:26] <jamiejackson> i saw something about cifs
[18:26] <BlkGhost> yeah cause I can't get any help getting VMware working with gutsy and I need it going asap
[18:26] <apcolypse_> I JUST installed 7.10 and can't even log in as SU to create a directory
[18:26] <FluxD> slacker_nl: any idea?
[18:26] <apcolypse_> or Root for that matter
[18:26] <riotkittie> dannyboy: do you have a soundcard and an onboard ?
[18:26] <shearn89> !sudo | apcolypse_
[18:26] <ubotu> apcolypse_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[18:27] <apcolypse_> I have an onboard soundcard danny if you're talking to me
[18:27] <riotkittie> *onboard sound device
[18:27] <jamiejackson> i can't keep up. there's too much old information on the interweb
[18:27] <dannyboy> riotkittie: yes i do...
[18:27] <apcolypse_> Thanks shearn89
[18:27] <shearn89> jamiejackson: hell yeah.... this channel is damn hard to follow sometimes...
[18:27] <jamiejackson> the interweb needs a healthy brush fire
[18:27] <slacker_nl> FluxD: not yet :)
[18:27] <shearn89> the interweb needs a "sudo rm -....." <evil command>
[18:27] <aoirthoir> does anyone know how to change or stop the on screen display of the volume settings, that pops up over everything when you adjust the volume?
[18:27] <FluxD> slacker_nl: thx for looking :)
[18:28] <kkathman> aoirthoir,  I wish I knew that also
[18:28] <kkathman> its rather annoying
[18:28] <jamiejackson> so what am i supposed to be using instead of smbmount?
[18:28] <dannyboy> riotkittie: my sound is on board
[18:28] <Raff7> nobody use gutsy and the ps3? :\
[18:28] <shearn89> aoirthoir: kkathman: couldn't you remove the applet?
[18:28] <riotkittie> dannyboy: ah. if it's only onboard, then i am useless
[18:28] <Dima50_> If auto completion of words is bother U (in open office). U cat disable it in Tools->AutoCorrect then autocompletion tab.
[18:28] <slacker_nl> FluxD: which sh file did you run?
[18:28] <shearn89> jamiejackson: ahh - mount -t smbfs -o username=tridge,password=foobar //fjall/test /data/tes
[18:29]  * slacker_nl just downloaded the sources
[18:29] <oasisfai> there are so many zombie process in gusty system monitor,
[18:29] <bofh80> jamiejackson, please paste the one line from your fstab as well . . . . . .
[18:29] <kkathman> shearn89,  that would mean it wouldnt work I reckon :) - i.e. the sound applet
[18:29] <jamiejackson> okay, i see. is that what fstab uses behind the scenes?
[18:29] <greedo_> ah crap
[18:29] <FluxD> slacker_nl: the gui installer one
[18:29] <aoirthoir> shearn89:  I'm not talking about the applet in the panel. And if I can remove an applet that wont display it i would be fine with that.
[18:29] <greedo_> i'm installing ubuntu from the alternate cd
[18:29] <zengen> I'm trying to use duplicity to back up to my home computer with 'duplicity /home/ scp://user@server/backup/home/' and I keep gettting an sftp error message instead of duplicity using ssh/scp.  Anyone know what's wrong?
[18:29] <oasisfai> how can I kill the zombie process?
[18:29] <jamiejackson> okay, hang on, lemme protect the innocent first
[18:29] <greedo_> it tries to scan fr.archive.ubuntu.com

[18:29] <slacker_nl> dragon33: xchm
[18:29] <zengen> dragon33, xchm
[18:29] <shearn89> aoirthoir: kkathman: do you mean like on a laptop when the thing appears in the middle of the screen?
[18:29] <theSamo> After i finished the updte to gutsy, i dont have most of it's new features (Tracker, DisplayConfig-GTK,etc.) is there a way to install them in one command?
[18:29] <dragon33> thanks guys :-)
[18:29] <aoirthoir> shearn89: precisely.
[18:30] <dannyboy> riotkittie: this only happens with 7.10 i dont know why....it recognizes the drivers and everything
[18:30] <kkathman> shearn89,  it happens on the desktop too
[18:30] <kslater> anyone know of a problem with libnss-ldap.conf?
[18:30] <shearn89> aoirthoir: ahh. not sure you can change that.... maybe some code-hacking?
[18:30] <kslater> it's completely absent from my machine
[18:30] <bofh80> shearn89, your being battered lol
[18:30] <aoirthoir> shearn89: on fiesty and dapper it used to be small..but now it is HUGE..and covers over videos when i am trying to adjust the volume
[18:30] <fro> anyone here use bitchx? i'm having font issues

[18:30] <slacker_nl> FluxD: a name would be nice ;)
[18:31] <shearn89> oasisfai: kill <pid>
[18:31] <aoirthoir> shearn89: so I am thinking if I could at least FIND the image used..i could just delete it
