[07:39] <kdavidson> Kelbizzle: Already own it - have been using it with Windows and decided last night, why not dual boot with Ubuntu....
[07:39] <craigbass76> soundray: your advice is sound...  It mounts to /mnt/hdb anyone know why I don't have write permissions to it?
[07:40] <riotkittie> I have an 11.2gb internal hard drive. i have a 400gb external hd. my bios does not support booting from usb devices. can i install ubuntu on the usb drive have /boot on a partition on the internal? i did see a thread or wiki entry about nonbootable drive installs and making a boot CD but it was confusing (and i dont really want to have to rely on a CD)
[07:41] <gordonjcp> riotkittie: is it mounted rw?
[07:41] <riotkittie> gordonjcp: of course it is :P
[07:41] <royel> Kelbizzle: who owns /mnt/hdb
[07:41] <craigbass76> Man, I did that earlier and it borked twice, now it's installing. Whatever....
[07:41] <Kelbizzle> royel, root
[07:41] <gordonjcp> riotkittie: sorry, that was aimied at Kelbizzle
[07:41] <RAW-mEAT> hello, my machine does not shut down automatically, whats gone wrong?
[07:41] <Kelbizzle> gordonjcp, no it's not rw lemme get the line in my fstab
[07:41] <soundray> riotkittie: a boot partition on the internal one should be sufficient.
[07:41] <RAW-mEAT> i have to press 5 secs power off.
[07:41] <royel> Kelbizzle: might try # chmod 777 /mnt/hdb
[07:41] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: is it a laptop?
[07:41] <riotkittie> soundray: thank you.
[07:42] <RAW-mEAT> no its a Pentium 3 500mhz
[07:42] <gordonjcp> riotkittie: in answer to your question, I don't see why not, but if it breaks you own both pieces ;-)
[07:42] <RAW-mEAT> normal desktop pc
[07:42] <kiwii> soundray: thx
[07:42] <Kelbizzle> gordonjcp, /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb reiserfs defaults 0 2
[07:42] <Pici> riotkittie: Yes, it should work, since essentially its the same thing as booting from any bootable device, CD or otherwise
[07:42] <RAW-mEAT> a while ago it worked perfectly.
[07:42] <gordonjcp> Kelbizzle: say "mount | grep hdb1"
[07:42] <luzylee> im running Edgy and Vista as dual boot.  Can I set up Vista like Ubuntu so the system files are locked and password protected?
[07:42] <RAW-mEAT> since i installed xfce it doesnt work.
[07:43] <Pici> !enter | RAW-mEAT
[07:43] <Kelbizzle> /dev/hdb1 on /mnt/hdb type reiserfs (rw)
[07:43] <ubotu> RAW-mEAT: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:43] <Kelbizzle> gordonjcp, /hdb1 on /mnt/hdb type reiserfs (rw)
[07:43] <hoagie> I don't think so luzlee, maybe you might wanna check uac in vista for that
[07:43] <royel> !vista | luzylee
[07:43] <Pici> RAW-mEAT: How are you trying to shut it down?
[07:43] <ubotu> luzylee: vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[07:43] <soundray> luzylee: that's a windows question...  ##windows
[07:43] <RAW-mEAT> I go on the "shutdown" button and wait.
[07:44] <dyrne> need some help with script. example: ls file.txt; if $something = 1; echo found the file.  im just wondering the variable that returns 0 or 1 if a command completes successfully.. sorry if this is not on topic
[07:44] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: how far does it get in the shutdown process?
[07:44] <RAW-mEAT> until the border turns from orange/yellow to black.
[07:44] <gordonjcp> Kelbizzle: okay... can you write to it when you're root (or using sudo)?
[07:44] <Kelbizzle> gordonjcp, yes sir.
[07:44] <padge> I'm having trouble with permissions
[07:44] <soundray> dyrne: $?
[07:44] <Pici> dyrne: [ -e /dir/file ]
[07:45] <gordonjcp> Kelbizzle: probably want to adjust the permissions of /mnt/hdb then
[07:45] <padge> if I am padge, and nautilus is a process I'm running, then it has the same permissions I do, right?
[07:45] <dyrne> ah thats right thx *bangs head on keyboard*
[07:45] <craigbass76> Ok, so now this command sudo mount -t smbfs //<IP_ADDRESS>/invoicing /mnt gives me 7521: session request to <IP_ADDRESS> failed (Called name not present)
[07:45] <Kelbizzle> gordonjcp, oh ok I thought so. I just wanted to be sure.
[07:45] <gordonjcp> Kelbizzle: I say "probably", I mean that's what I'd do but consider that if you set it mode 777 anyone could write it...
[07:45] <Pici> dyrne: `man test` for more syntax
[07:45] <RAW-mEAT> there is a ubuntu screen with a processbar.. and i wait until the processbar is clear.. then i can wait 10 mins or 1 hour but nothing happens.
[07:45] <hairulfr> Hey all - is there a repository that comes with Kiba-dock, or is there somewhere I can DL a Gnome/ubuntu friendly version?
[07:46] <Kelbizzle> gordonjcp, will that make it show on the desktop?
[07:46] <royel> craigbass76: sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx //<IP_ADDRESS>/invoicing /mnt
[07:46] <blazemonger> i'm on my 11th time instaling ubuntu
[07:46] <soundray> craigbass76: try 'smbclient -U username -L //host' first. It should give you a list of shares.
[07:46] <Kelbizzle> gordonjcp, I made volumes visible in gconf-edit for nautilus
[07:46] <pabst> Alright... I need a good HTML/XHTML/CSS editor?? Any idea's? Ive worked with SCREAM, it blows for doing style sheets, so does Quanta and Bluefish
[07:47] <blazemonger> my mouse cursor just turned all black
[07:47] <craigbass76> soundray: I didn't know there was a username on ME.  What, is it Owner?
[07:47] <soundray> craigbass76: I don't know, I think it's what you configured when you set up the share on the Windows side.
[07:47] <sigger_> just hooked my Ubuntu work lappy up to my home network (mostly Knoppmyth).  I have UID and GID conflict(s).  Knoppmyth uses UID 105 for its myth user which has a lot of files and I can't really change that, but Ubuntu uses 105 for cupsys.  Any advice oon how to proceed?
[07:48] <RAW-mEAT> but the machine does not response when i press STRG+ALT+DEL or STRG+ALT+BACKSPACE
[07:48] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: what's the last message at the bottom of the screen?
[07:48] <mtymobile> hi
[07:49] <Kelbizzle> royel,  thanks setting it to 777 worked.
[07:49] <Kelbizzle> gordonjcp, thanks it worked.
[07:49] <mtymobile> what package do i have to install to get the standard C documentation in man pages?
[07:49] <padge> I have a directory which belongs to a particular group, and I'm a member of that group.  Shouldn't I have the permissions that are set for group?
[07:49] <RAW-mEAT> i cant read any messages on the screen because its a black screen with a ubuntu logo.
[07:49] <royel> Kelbizzle: awesome :)
[07:49] <mtymobile> to make man sscanf work
[07:49] <mtymobile> ????
[07:49] <blazemonger> back
[07:49] <blazemonger> system froze
[07:49] <dewey> good day mates
[07:49] <RAW-mEAT> is there a bash command to shut down instantly?
[07:49] <Kelbizzle> royel, now to get it showing on the dekstop.
[07:49] <mtymobile> RAW-mEAT, halt
[07:49] <sigger_> padge, unless you're alse the user of the dir
[07:49] <blazemonger> when i went to select scrreensaver(i'm on a fresh install)
[07:50] <seeds> please : what's the correct name for trash icons?
[07:50] <padge> sigger_: Well, it's not working as I had hoped
[07:50] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: 'sudo halt' will do the same shutdown sequence
[07:50] <seeds> anyone please?
[07:50] <royel> Kelbizzle: browse to /mnt/name an create a link :)
[07:50] <sigger_> padge what's wrong?
[07:50] <dewey> ok I have ubuntu edgy eft installed :)
[07:50] <mtymobile> please, nobody knows?
[07:51] <blazemonger> dewey i do too..i just had to reboot my system from selecting a screensaver
[07:51] <padge> sigger_: I have a directory called 'sl', the owner and group are both 'secondlife'
[07:51] <dewey> now I want to install some msft fonts?
[07:51] <padge> sigger_: I am 'padge' and I belong to the group 'secondlife'
[07:51] <craigbass76> soundray: Oh goodie, I got to use the "home and office networking wizard"   We'll see how that goes. After a reboot of course (I totally don't miss windows at all sonce quitting)
[07:51] <seeds> Can anyone tell me the correct name for trash icons in ubuntu?
[07:51] <soundray> !msttcorefonts | dewey
[07:51] <ubotu> dewey: msttcorefonts: Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.2ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 22 kB, installed size 164 kB
[07:51] <soundray> !fonts | dewey

[07:51] <cosstick> would sum 1 b able to run me through installing wine and installing useing wine please, geting very confused here :) thanks
[07:51] <Kelbizzle> royel, links don't look pretty. I want it to look like when I connect my usb drive.
[07:51] <padge> sigger_: group permissions for the folder are rwx
[07:51] <blazemonger> maybe my computer is a piece of trash
[07:51] <padge> sigger_: but that just doesn't seem to work
[07:51] <mtymobile> what package do i have to install to get the standard C documentation in man pages?
[07:51] <Pici> !repeat > seeds
[07:51] <dewey> thanx I will do that all :)
[07:52] <soundray> mtymobile: manpages-dev
[07:52] <padge> sigger_: I cannot write to it
[07:52] <mtymobile> soundray, thanks
[07:52] <seeds> pici: can you help me please?
[07:52] <edmundburke__> ubuntu isn't connecting to my wireless lan ...
[07:52] <cosstick> would sum 1 b able to run me through installing wine and installing useing wine please, geting very confused here :) thanks
[07:52] <edmundburke__> I can ping my localhost, but I can't ping my gateway ... :-(
[07:52] <Pici> seeds: I dont know the answer to your question
[07:52] <joe__> I'm having some trouble getting wireless working
[07:52] <edmundburke__> Is ubuntu not recognizing my wireless or something ?
[07:52] <RAW-mEAT> okay as i heard the harddisk goes offline but the powersupply does not stop. :(
[07:52] <seeds> pici: ok thanks anyway
[07:52] <edmundburke__> It seems that the network connection is configured from the GUI display ..
[07:52] <karly> omg royel its working =D =D =D!!!!
[07:52] <sigger_> padge, by any chance is this dir a symlink or a samba or nfs mounted drive?
[07:52] <padge> sigger_: Any ideas?
[07:52] <edmundburke__> ping <IP_ADDRESS> : Network unreachable
[07:53] <royel> karly: woot :)
[07:53] <padge> sigger_: no, it's real and local.
[07:53] <royel> Kelbizzle: what type of mount is it?
[07:53] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: are you familiar with /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[07:53] <RAW-mEAT> a bit yes.
[07:53] <edmundburke__> that must point to my graphics card right ?
[07:53] <cosstick> would sum 1 b able to run me through installing wine and installing useing wine please, geting very confused here :) thanks
[07:53] <edmundburke__> oops
[07:53] <mtymobile> RAW-mEAT, can you please explain better?
[07:53] <sigger_> padge: ok, is it a mounted drive at all?
[07:53] <Kelbizzle> royel, what the partition? what do you mean what type of mount
[07:53] <varkatope> good evening
[07:54] <royel> Kelbizzle: ah, just a partition
[07:54] <edmundburke__> that must be a wireless connection driver issue ?
[07:54] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: you should try removing "quiet splash" from your default kernel line, reboot, and then try shutting down again. You will get a more verbose shutdown sequence, which will help diagnose the problem.
[07:54] <padge> sigger_: it is a subdirectory of /
[07:54] <asraniel> does anybody know how i can reconfigure my xserver? my x.org config is realy messed up, how can i generate a new one?
[07:54] <bart_> cosstick, sudo apt-get install wine ?
[07:54] <Kelbizzle> royel, it's a second drive
[07:54] <sigger_> padge:  ok, knocks out first thing I thought of.  thinking.
[07:54] <soundray> asraniel: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[07:54] <Ramosa> any pointers how to run "Second Life" on Ubuntu ?
[07:55] <padge> Ramosa: Make sure you have your video card drivers installed
[07:55] <loca|host> what's the best sip softphone i can use with asterisk ? (ekiga wont work with my sound card)
[07:55] <sigger_> padge: how are you trying to write to it?  what specifically are you foing?
[07:55] <blazemonger> crashed again
[07:55] <gordonjcp> If I mount an SMB share from places, how do I find what its mountpoint is?
[07:55] <blazemonger> do i need to reinstall?
[07:55] <royel> Kelbizzle: I'm sure there is a way to do it.. I'm not 100% certain how, your wanting a drive icon, like when you insert a CDrom an an icon pops up
[07:55] <Ramosa> padge, do I just install the one from secondlife.com, or is it in some repository?
[07:55] <padge> sigger_: I am trying to write to it using nautilus.  From the console, I cannot change to that directory
[07:55] <blazemonger> i sent a bug report just now
[07:55] <edmundburke__> which interface is sit0 ?
[07:55] <blazemonger> telling them the molecule screensaver locks up system
[07:55] <soundray> gordonjcp: it's mounted via gnome-vfs, which means that there isn't a proper mountpoint.
[07:56] <varkatope> Ramosa: just download the alpha installer from the sl site
[07:56] <Kelbizzle> royel, yea like macos x shows the mounted drives on the desktop. or if I connect my thumbdrive it shows on the desktop.
[07:56] <sigger_> padge: whoa. from console you can't even enter the dir?  (i.e. it doesn't think you have +x)?
[07:56] <padge> Ramosa: Secondlife provides an archive.  Just pop it open in your home folder and run the shell script 'secondlife'
[07:56] <Ramosa> padge, thanks
[07:56] <gordonjcp> soundray: ah, that's a bit rubbish
[07:56] <blazemonger> gnome panel froze
[07:56] <sigger_> padge: from command line, "who" tells you that you are padge, right?
[07:56] <padge> sigger_: whoa, you have to have x to change to?
[07:56] <Shaffox> !wiki
[07:57] <blazemonger> i never had this happen with even windows 95
[07:57] <soundray> gordonjcp: not necessarily, the concept is good, but it's not widespread enough yet.
[07:57] <sigger_> padge: well to enter a dir, I believe you have to have +x in the dir
[07:57] <ubotu> wiki is http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Loads of user-contributed documentation
[07:57] <gordonjcp> soundray: so basically you can only browse the files, you can't actually *use* them with anything?
[07:57] <RAW-mEAT> okay i reboot now.
[07:57] <blazemonger> i'm on a fresh install too
[07:57] <irony> hello just discovered this xchat thing and am seeing if it works
[07:57] <soundray> gordonjcp: for now, configure to mount your share in /etc/fstab, then you will have a proper mount point
[07:57] <blazemonger> my video card is a opengl card and i have the latest drivers that are available
[07:57] <mtymobile> blazemonger, what are you saying exactly by naming windows95?
[07:57] <padge> sigger_: checking
[07:57] <gordonjcp> soundray: yes, that's what I'm doing
[07:57] <soundray> gordonjcp: you can use them with programs that are vfs aware
[07:58] <blazemonger> well the molecule screensaver locked up my computer twice ive had to reboot
[07:58] <padge> sigger_: That fixed that
[07:58] <blazemonger> i'm trying to run things that ran in debian
[07:58] <padge> sigger_: but the larger problem remains
[07:58] <soundray> gordonjcp: oh, you are. Then you will have defined the mountpoint in /etc/fstab (second column)
[07:58] <Gon> finally got ubuntu installed :D
[07:58] <blazemonger> that i used and everything i used in debian doesn't work in ubuntu...
[07:58] <soundray> Gon: congrats
[07:58] <padge> sigger_: Correct me if I'm wrong, but users can belong to multiple groups, right?
[07:58] <Kelbizzle> Gon, congrats!
[07:58] <Gon> how do i install codecs?
[07:58] <Gon> xD
[07:58] <blazemonger> Gon: have alot of pot ready
[07:58] <blazemonger> i just installed ubuntu for the 11th time
[07:58] <soundray> !multimedia | Gon
[07:58] <ubotu> Gon: For multimedia codecs see: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html and for applications see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[07:58] <blazemonger> and did the updates
[07:58] <Gon> sweet thx
[07:58] <gordonjcp> soundray: yes, I'm just setting that up just now
[07:58] <sigger_> padge: just for kicks, cd / and ls -l sl to check perms
[07:58] <Kelbizzle> lol @ blaze
[07:59] <riotkittie> 11th. dear god.
[07:59] <Gon> i think i like this better then windows
[07:59] <blazemonger> why lol?
[07:59] <mtymobile> Gon, use automatix2
[07:59] <headphase> I am having something conflict my installation of amarok
[07:59] <czr> any idea where to find gcc-4.1 for dapper? (doesn't exist in dapper-backports)
[07:59] <blazemonger> ubuntu is giving me nothing BUT problems
[07:59] <Gon> aight cool
[07:59] <Pici> !automatix | mtymobile Gon
[07:59] <blazemonger> and nightmares
[07:59] <ubotu> mtymobile Gon: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:59] <Kelbizzle> <st0ner
[07:59] <sigger_> padge: yes, users can belong to many groups.  e.g. try groups padge
[07:59] <gordonjcp> soundray: a nice idea, but I suspect it's one for the GUI users
[07:59] <fbarc> Anyone know where I can find the TYPES for an fsck -t?
[07:59] <blazemonger> im wondering if this wasnt tested enough
[07:59] <royel> Kelbizzle: maybe ask in here again.. an let me know what you find out :)
[07:59] <soundray> gordonjcp: which one?
[07:59] <riotkittie> problems and nightmares but you keep coming back.  the mind. it still boggles.
[07:59] <Kelbizzle> royel,  no problem.
[07:59] <gordonjcp> the gnome-vfs thing
[07:59] <RAW-mEAT> soundray it says: system halted with a number before the system halted
[07:59] <blazemonger> can't they make a note saying "This distro might crash old machines"
[07:59] <RAW-mEAT> and after that comes nothing.
[07:59] <mitcheloc> well can't get the second screen up /me is about to give up and just stick with one 17" and put the apple 23" in the closet :(
[07:59] <Kelbizzle> I'll be back after I hit the glass
[08:00] <fbarc> Is there a chat server for ubuntu that MSN users can logon to?
[08:00] <Pici> fbarc: mount should tell you what the type of filesystems you have mounted
[08:00] <padge> sigger_: wow, I'm in more groups than I thought I was.   Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[08:00] <sigger_> padge: how about the ls?
[08:00] <mtymobile> blazemonger, you are not using debian
[08:00] <blazemonger> im not right now
[08:00] <fbarc> Pici: thanks.. I'll try that..
[08:00] <padge> sigger_: Yes, I can change to the dir from the console and get a list
[08:00] <blazemonger> i just installed ubuntu thiniking it would be better than even debian
[08:00] <padge> sigger_: However, I'm being treated as though I'm not a part of that group... as in my permissions are that of o instead of g
[08:01] <riotkittie> then he found it so awful that installed it 10 more times :P
[08:01] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: okay, that means at least it's safe to force-shutdown with the power button at this point.
[08:01] <padge> sigger_: g has rwx on that directory
[08:01] <blazemonger> do i need to reinstall ubuntu again?
[08:01] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, I remeber this post in the forums "is ubuntu for you" doesnb't elp now but would have been a good read
[08:01] <RAW-mEAT> okay, but its annoying to press 5 sec the poweroff button
[08:01] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: there are two options now: 1) diagnose further, 2) employ a workaround involving grub. What would you prefer?
[08:01] <padge> sigger_: of course, I haven't tried to write with the console, but nautilus did experience a change...
[08:01] <blazemonger> well i'm a linux newb
[08:01] <Kelbizzle> RAW-mEAT, pull the power plug
[08:01] <RAW-mEAT> employ a workaround.
[08:02] <blazemonger> a work around?
[08:02] <sigger_> padge: (1) please double check the perms of the dir.  (cd /; ls -l sl) (2) try to create a file in sl (cd /sl; touch afile)
[08:02] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, me too man just really savvy. and I troll alot.
[08:02] <padge> sigger_: at first, nautilus somehow got the names of the contents, but nothing else about them.  Now it gets the fact that they are folders
[08:02] <RAW-mEAT> nah its a pc behind a desk :/
[08:02] <blazemonger> how do i prevent something as simple as a screensaver from freezing my system?
[08:02] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, linux favors the prepared and persistant
[08:02] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle:i'm not a troll
[08:02] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: at the end of /boot/grub/menu.lst, make a new section with 'title Shutdown' and a single command, 'halt'
[08:02] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, use no screensaver at all
[08:02] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle:well if microsoft wouldn't have ripped me off on XP
[08:02] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, I feel your pain there.
[08:03] <blazemonger> well why are the screensavers there then?
[08:03] <Gon> !worksforme
[08:03] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[08:03] <fbarc> Is there a chat server for ubuntu that MSN users can logon to?
[08:03] <blazemonger> there needs to be linux for stoners
[08:03] <Da9el> Somebody know how to unrar on ubuntu ?
[08:03] <Gon> wait wait
[08:03] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, Iis that the only screensaver that crashes your system?
[08:03] <Gon> where do i get automated install for codecs again

[08:03] <welemski> does anyone knows who can help me play quicktime movie in firefox? I already installed all the necessary plugins from totem,vlc,mplayer etc still it displays  "no video"
[08:03] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle: nope
[08:03] <RAW-mEAT> okay!
[08:03] <Da9el> thanks!
[08:03] <riotkittie> because screesavers rock. and the vast majority of us have no problem with them.
[08:03] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger,  you have aim?
[08:04] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, it's got to be something with the drivers
[08:04] <blazemonger> riotkittie:well i have a top of the line system...a pentium 4 1.4ghz  at least top of the line for linux..a ATI RAGE 128 with 128 megabytes of memory
[08:04] <fbarc> Pici:  I just tried 'sudo fsck /media/usbdisk -t vfat" but it just said "Read 512 bytes at 0:Is a directory"
[08:04] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: to boot into the shutdown section, you have to do 'echo y | sudo grub-reboot N'
[08:04] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle:I have the latest drivers
[08:04] <blazemonger> could it be i need to make a custom kernel?
[08:04] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: to find out the correct number to enter for N, do this:
[08:04] <padge> sigger_: There are no non-directory files in the directory.  Should that work the same with a directory?  Also, I might have misled you about the placement of sl
[08:04] <hdxx> welemski, download firefox addon MediaPlayerConnectivity
[08:04] <Gon> !multimedia
[08:04] <ubotu> For multimedia codecs see: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html and for applications see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[08:04] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: grep ^title /boot/grub/menu.lst | nl -v 0
[08:04] <blazemonger> I didn't even have these probs in FreeBSD and Freebsd is much more complex than ubuntu
[08:04] <padge> sigger_: sl's whole path is /home/ftp/sl
[08:04] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, no that screensave works on my notebook qwith crappy ati chip.
[08:05] <Kelbizzle> and it doesn't crash my computer.
[08:05] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle:it doesnt crash your computer? HOW?!?!?!??!
[08:05] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: the number of the Shutdown section is what you want to feed to the grub-reboot command
[08:05] <padge> sigger_: will (copy con > bla.txt) work to see if I can write?
[08:05] <riotkittie> blazemonger: i know your specs. you ticked them off for me last night while you were on your tenth install and waxing poetic about how awful ubuntu was
[08:05] <Pici> fbarc: you need to umount the device first and provide the device name, not the mount point to fsck
[08:05] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: am I making sense?
[08:05] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, I dunno. and that card can't even handle et in windows.
[08:05] <blazemonger> i know riotkittie
[08:05] <blazemonger> it handled windows PERFECT
[08:05] <IanLiu> Hello

[08:07] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, like for thc, and lsd
[08:07] <welemski> hdxx, yes MediaPlayerConnectivity solves the problem but it opens a lot of windows sometimes too annoying... is there any posibility of playing the .mov on a webpage without MediaPlayerConnectivity?

[08:07] <IanLiu> how can I upgrade my GLIBC to 2.4 in Dapper Drake??
[08:07] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle Yah :)

[08:07] <thekidrio> anyone here have mythtv running on ubuntu?
[08:07] <blazemonger> i have 768 megabytes of memory
[08:08] <blazemonger> if 768 megabytes of memory isn't enough for Ubuntu and it's based on Debian SOMETHING is wrong
[08:08] <hdxx> welemski, try with mplayer plugin or xine plugin
[08:08] <thekidrio> 768 is plenty
[08:08] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, what kind of crah. nah I have 768
[08:08] <soundray> meisam: is that the port you configured?
[08:08] <Advanced> i just installed ubuntu, everything seemed to go fine, i rebooted to ubuntu, got to the loading screen and then it went into busybox, and gave me the error "bin/sh: cant access tty; job control turned off"

[08:09] <meisam> i have not configured any port, but i just say somewhere that is te port neede to be checked
[08:09] <riotkittie> maybe your ram is shoddy.
[08:09] <blazemonger> like i can't even use ctl alt backspace to get back to GDM
[08:09] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, so when you select the screensaver AND IT TRIED TO PREVIEW IT IS WHEN IT CRASHESD?
[08:09] <thekidrio> hrmm Advanced, hrmm interesting

[08:09] <blazemonger> correct Kelbizzle and that's only one of 50 things that i've had gone wrong with Ubuntu
[08:09] <meisam> soundray i have not configured any port, but i just say somewhere that is te port neede to be checked

[08:09] <padge> sigger_: who gives me four lines, they all start with padge
[08:09] <ComradeC> I'm having problems with saving a location in the network settings tab, does anyone know why it wouldn't save a location for me?  Is there a manually way to save them in the console?
[08:09] <soundray> meisam: sec
[08:09] <blazemonger> Advanced at least mandriva and suse work
[08:09] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, maybe ubuntu isn'ts for you right now....
[08:09] <meisam> soundray sure
[08:09] <newbuntie> how do i install an hp scanner in 6.06?
[08:09] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle: why wouldn't it be for me?
[08:10] <Gon> anyone?
[08:10] <blazemonger> i have the hardware requirements
[08:10] <IanLiu> Anyone could help me? I must upgrade my GLIBC in Dapper, but I don't know how... Any tips?
[08:10] <sigger_> padge: then you are indeed padge.  jeez.  It hasn't hit me yet, but it will
[08:10] <blazemonger> so you're saying i should go out and buy XP?
[08:10] <thekidrio> hahahaha
[08:10] <blazemonger> or windows 2000?
[08:10] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, and it works right?
[08:10] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, are you booted up to a stable system? besideds that screensaver?
[08:10] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5958/
[08:10] <newbuntie> how do i install an hp scanner in 6.06?
[08:11] <tonyyarusso> I have a desktop computer with no monitor or keyboard.  I plugged it into my laptop via a crossover ethernet cable.  Network Manager on the laptop now says there is a wired connection.  ifconfig on the laptop gives IP addresses for interfaces eth0:avahi and eth1:avahi of <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>, respectively.  How can I find out the IP of the desktop so I can ssh in and use it?
[08:11] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle: i'm going to try to run the screensaver again okay?
[08:11] <riotkittie> blazemonger: you dont have to go buy windows - you have gone on and on about how great debian is, why not use that
[08:11] <royel> blazemonger: have you considered using the Kubuntu version?
[08:11] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, no problem
[08:11] <padge> sigger_: I used the GUI admin utility to add myself to the group... could this have anything to do with the umask?
[08:11] <welemski> what happen to the petition for apple on making a quicktime version for linux?
[08:11] <sigger_> padge: /home/ftp is kind of an odd place for it.  Unless you're setting the stuff up to be accessed by ftp.
[08:11] <Ramosa> padge, i can't get Second Life running on Ubuntu.. I get "Window creator error".. something with GLX
[08:11] <blazemonger> well ubuntu is more updated
[08:11] <blazemonger> dont like KDE
[08:11] <padge> sigger_: That is, in fact, exactly what it is
[08:11] <Kelbizzle> you should be able to view that screensaver.
[08:11] <padge> sigger_: however, I do want to be able to access it locally as well
[08:11] <riotkittie> blazemonger: the disc you installed from,... did you use the same disc all 11 times?
[08:11] <newbuntie> how do i install an hp scanner in 6.06?
[08:12] <SpudDogg> soundray, i just called my insurance agent and my car insurance went down $300 today...I feel a little better to be 25.
[08:12] <Kelbizzle> I can do it on my notebook
[08:12] <blazemonger> yes riotkittie
[08:12] <Kelbizzle> with radeon xpress 200m
[08:12] <blazemonger> even verified the md5 sums
[08:12] <sigger_> padge: dunno about the gui stuff.  I do almost everything via command line.
[08:12] <blazemonger> everything seemed to install perfect
[08:12] <blazemonger> then when i boot
[08:12] <riotkittie> blazemonger: was it a disc you burned your self?
[08:12] <RAW-mEAT> soundray cant connect to this link. :/
[08:12] <blazemonger> things go wrong
[08:12] <Kelbizzle> are you using edgy?
[08:12] <blazemonger> yes
[08:12] <blazemonger> it was
[08:12] <blazemonger> im using edgy
[08:12] <padge> sigger_: How do I add a user to a group with a command line?
[08:12] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: it's a bit slow right now, try again
[08:12] <LjL> padge: adduser user group
[08:12] <IanLiu> any tips on Upgrading GLIBC on Dapper??
[08:12] <LjL> IanLiu: yes: don't.
[08:12] <riotkittie> blazemonger: did you check the md5 against  the downloaded iso ?  did you check the disc for errors on install?
[08:12] <RAW-mEAT> okay i wait.
[08:12] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, I'll be back I'm booting up my notebook
[08:12] <blazemonger> yes i did
[08:13] <blazemonger> i checked for errors
[08:13] <sigger_> can use moduser for an existing user.  (man moduser)
[08:13] <IanLiu> I cant upgrade it? :(
[08:13] <Gon> mm
[08:13] <meisam> soundray im here, when ever ur finished let me know plz thx
[08:13] <Gon> anyone installed codecs?
[08:13] <Gon> xD
[08:13] <blazemonger> so how do i make this screensaver work? it's the ONLY one that doesn't work
[08:13] <sigger_> padge: sorry thats usermod
[08:13] <newbuntie> no one knows hot to install a scanner in ubuntu 6.06?
[08:13] <riotkittie> !restricted > Gon
[08:13] <welemski> can we make another petition for apple to make a quicktime version for linux?
[08:13] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, do me a favor....make a new user. and see if the same thing happens?
[08:13] <blazemonger> how do i make a new user
[08:13] <Pici> blazemonger: Which screen saver?
[08:13] <padge> LjL: I need to be root to do this, right
[08:13] <LjL> IanLiu, it would be suicide, as i'm sure you're realize: the C library is used by just about any programs, and Dapper programs expect the Dapper version of it. your system would, in all likelihood, become hopelessly broken
[08:13] <padge> sigger_: What is usermod?  adduser?
[08:13] <LjL> padge: yes
[08:13] <LjL> padge: sudo adduser user group
[08:13] <soundray> meisam: I was going to install it and see for myself, but that would take to long (44 MB)
[08:14] <blazemonger> pici: the molecule screensaver
[08:14] <Gon> thx
[08:14] <blazemonger> see if it works on your system
[08:14] <royel> blazemonger: well, my experience with Ubuntu was that it seemed a lil bit more involved getting it setup to work the way I liked.. but once I did, it seems to me to be much better than the other distro's I've tried.. Suse, Opensuse, Mandriva,Freespire,PClinuxOS,Sabayon (although this one was almost perfect) an several others
[08:14] <IanLiu> hmm...
[08:14] <zOap> what type of webcam is suported as is in dapper? is there a list somewhere?
[08:14] <riotkittie> !webcam
[08:14] <soundray> meisam: are there any /etc/tomcat* directories?
[08:14] <IanLiu> ok
[08:14] <blazemonger> royel:my experience has been the direct opposite
[08:14] <IanLiu> thanks
[08:14] <meisam> Gon sudo aptitude install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-gl gstreamer0.10-plugins-base \

[08:14] <meisam> Gon gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse \
[08:14] <padge> sigger_: It says that I am already a member of that group.
[08:14] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, system > administration > users and groups
[08:14] <riotkittie> ugh. i should be partitioning :\
[08:15] <meisam>  Gon gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse libxine-extracodecs w32codecs

[08:15] <Moxxon> ubuntu?
[08:15] <meisam> soundray where can i find it?
[08:15] <meisam> etc?
[08:15] <padge> LjL: I don't know how well you've been following my plight.  If you have, do you have any ideas?
[08:15] <blazemonger> royel:how much time did you spend getting things to work? a month with no sleep and amphetamines?
[08:15] <Kelbizzle> moxxon have you checked the forums?
[08:15] <royel> blazemonger: hate to hear that, I think the other distro's run a lil better out of the box so to speak, but I'm glad I stuck with working out my troubles with Ubuntu, overal I'm totally happy with it now
[08:15] <soundray> meisam: are there any /etc/tomcat* directories?
[08:16] <blazemonger> royel:well i have tracks to work on
[08:16] <royel> blazemonger: an several wipes an installs of other distros in between, yes :)
[08:16] <padge> sigger_: okay, I might have found something
[08:16] <sigger_> padge: you can write elsewhere, right?
[08:16] <blazemonger> even arch is easier to get working
[08:16] <meisam> soundray how can i check if there is any?
[08:16] <RAW-mEAT> soundray it says i have to be root!
[08:16] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger,  I've been working at it for 4 months I"ve broken two glass beauties out of fustration
[08:16] <blazemonger> i'm gonna try selecting this screensaver again
[08:16] <meisam> soundray in usr\share?
[08:16] <padge> sigger_: Yes, I can write in my home folder and anyplace else that has rwx for o
[08:16] <padge> sigger_: but get this...
[08:16] <soundray> meisam: ls /etc/tomcat5.5

[08:17] <Moxxon> DIdnt find anything really :/
[08:17] <meisam> Gon there were 3 lines did you fully get it baby?
[08:17] <padge> sigger_: /home/ftp is owned by 'ftp' and belongs to the group 'nogroup'
[08:17] <sidny4> anybody know how to get my logitech USB Trackball to work with ubuntu, I used to be able to plug it in and go, now it's like it isn't recognized
[08:17] <Moxxon> Kelbizzle, couldyou link me the topic?
[08:17] <Kelbizzle> Moxxon, I didn't think vent worked for linux. because I use ts
[08:17] <padge> sigger_: I am not in nogoup, nor am I ftp
[08:17] <Kelbizzle> Moxxon, lemme see if I can find it
[08:17] <Moxxon> kk
[08:17] <drx> sidny4, try plugging it into a DIFFERENT usb slot
[08:17] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: 'gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst', append the lines after the ### one
[08:17] <holycow> anyone here handle ubuntu laptop support?  just curious how remote desktop (vnc) assistance is handled behind routers ... anyone have any special configs that lets them rount remote vnc desktop dealier over port 80 perhaps?
[08:17] <sidny4> drx: I've tried all 3 of them
[08:17] <padge> sigger_: Would child directories inherit restrictions like this?
[08:17] <Kelbizzle> Moxxon, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=41737
[08:18] <sidny4> drx: it recognizes my USB Flash drive, and when I plug the mouse into another computer it works fine
[08:18] <royel> Moxxon: Vent does support a linux client (yet), I've even tried to run it thru wine with no luck
[08:18] <soundray> meisam: okay, it seems that 8180 is the port that it should be running on. Is your apache configured, up and running?
[08:18] <meisam> ssoundray   policy.d  erver.xml  web.xml
[08:18] <sigger_> padge: mmm, don't think so.  e.g. my /mnt is root.root  however /mnt/stor/1 is writeable by many non-root people
[08:18] <sigger_> padge: your /home may even be root.root
[08:18] <meisam> ssoundray yes apache is working with no problem
[08:19] <meisam> ssoundray yes apache is ok and im using it with mysql
[08:19] <blazemonger> will ubuntu freezing my system and having to restart my pc all the time cause problems?
[08:19] <padge> sigger_: You are correct, and the permissions are drwxr-xr-x
[08:19] <sigger_> padge: so, how'd you get the sl dir there?
[08:19] <Moxxon> How do you install packages
[08:19] <padge> sigger_: I created it as root
[08:19] <Cyrus25801> I have a audio cd that i can't play on my pc because of encryption. Is there a program that can cut through the encryption
[08:19] <sigger_> padge: and how'd you get the files there?
[08:20] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, no it shouldn't.
[08:20] <meisam> ssoundray yes etc/tomcat exists
[08:20] <PeaceLover> heya

[08:20] <headphase> I am having trouble installing amarok
[08:20] <blazemonger> whoever coded this molecule screensaver was a crappy coder
[08:20] <Cyrus25801> PeaceLover: hi ho silver

[08:23] <ompaul> blazemonger, I found that screen saver issues was more to do with video cards that were not behaving themselves
[08:23] <padge> sigger_: drwxr-xr-x
[08:23] <meisam> soundray no
[08:23] <soundray> meisam: do not paste here
[08:23] <yettenet> Does anyone have xfce? :P
[08:24] <meisam> soundray sorry :(
[08:24] <lolman> yettenet, yep
[08:24] <blazemonger> well I have a stable video card
[08:24] <yettenet> I can't find where it puts screenshots when I press print screen
[08:24] <yettenet> :P
[08:24] <meisam> soundray no i have not said uet
[08:24] <sigger_> padge: perhaps try making /home/ftp go+x - even if just temporarily to see if thats it?
[08:24] <blazemonger> one that works and has been around..the dependable Rage 128
[08:24] <meisam> soundray how should i be telling?
[08:24] <headphase> hdxx: I have done that before
[08:24] <blazemonger> works on even Solaris
[08:24] <sigger_> padge: perhaps try making /home/ftp go+w - even if just temporarily to see if thats it? (typo)
[08:24] <Kelbizzle> hdxx, don't forget the dependancies.
[08:24] <headphase> hdxx: do I need to restart?
[08:24] <padge> sigger_: I will try that, but I will break it into two steps to be more conclusive
[08:24] <lolman> yettenet, I think it puts them on the clipboard, let me check
[08:24] <sigger_> padge: sure
[08:25] <Kelbizzle> yettenet, should ask you where to put them
[08:25] <Kelbizzle> yettenet, the default is desktop.
[08:25] <blazemonger> but a system FREEZING over running simple code? I don't see anything complex with screensavers
[08:25] <soundray> meisam: gksudo gedit /etc/default/tomcat5.5
[08:25] <yettenet> It doesn't save there
[08:25] <yettenet> :P
[08:25] <ompaul> blazemonger, if something does not work then why insist on trying it out, like either fix it or move on,
[08:25] <blazemonger> i dont know how to fix it
[08:25] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger,  it's def. a video issue.
[08:25] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle so how do i fix it?
[08:25] <Pici> blazemonger: Log a bug report then
[08:25] <ompaul> blazemonger, so what video card have you got?
[08:25] <meisam> soundray then?
[08:26] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, bug report
[08:26] <blazemonger> compengi:A Rage 128 it's a good video card

[08:26] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, thats an old card
[08:26] <ompaul> blazemonger, and what driver are you using?
[08:26] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle; but it's good
[08:26] <nusa42> Sup - Need a little advice on setting up X server for 1360x768 resolution. Progress so far is that I used 915resolution to hack onboard gfx BIOS (Intel i855G), added modelines in xorg.conf and screen resolution, and edited /etc/default/915resolution and added a script with the 915resolution hack to /etc/init.d/widescreen. However the resolution starts up in 1280x1024 and the 1360x768 isnt available under preferences->screen resolution. I have to manually perform t
[08:26] <soundray> meisam: add a line "JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/j2se/1.4"
[08:26] <blazemonger> the one that comes with ubuntu
[08:26] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, THATS WHY
[08:26] <hdxx> headphase: what is your error in amarok? if you don't know, type amaok in console, and copy/paste on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:26] <blazemonger> what other driver do i use?
[08:26] <ompaul> blazemonger, change it to vesa
[08:26] <soundray> meisam: save, then 'sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 restart'
[08:26] <blazemonger> change it to VESA?!? i won't have opengl anymore
[08:26] <Cyrus25801>  I have a audio cd that i can't play on my pc because of encryption. Is there a program that can cut through the encryption
[08:27] <blazemonger> will I?
[08:27] <blazemonger> i used the same exact driver in debian
[08:27] <Gon> ey riokittie
[08:28] <ompaul> blazemonger, choices choices choices you know what is faulty don't know what is wrong, but can take out my initial suggestion to make it work?
[08:28] <ciga> hi
[08:28] <Gon> could you link me again to the multimedia thing earlier
[08:28] <meisam> soundray dude i have jdk 1.6.0
[08:28] <Gon> i kinda lost the link
[08:28] <padge> sigger_: That did not allow me to write a file in sl, however I am able to write a file in ftp
[08:28] <RAW-mEAT> soundray it always says i have to be root to perform this.
[08:28] <blazemonger> ompaul:will OpenGL still work?
[08:28] <ompaul> blazemonger, that is just the debian driver from sid
[08:28] <padge> sigger_: that being change o+w
[08:28] <Gon> !multimedia
[08:28] <RAW-mEAT> also gksudo and sudo does not work.
[08:28] <padge> sigger_: Now that I'm putting data into cat, how do I write an EOF? :)
[08:28] <soundray> meisam: give it the path to that, then
[08:29] <blazemonger> use VESA right?
[08:29] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: perform what exactly?
[08:29] <sigger_> padge: ergh. was hoping that changing /home/ftp would do it.  ctrl+D
[08:29] <blazemonger> ompaul: well i was using debian sid and the molecule saver didnt crash
[08:29] <gogogadget> can someone help me with a wireless problem
[08:29] <blazemonger> and i see zero reason why it would in ubuntu
[08:29] <ciga> I have a double layered DVD-RAM (9.4GB). how do I use it with ubuntu?
[08:29] <blazemonger> or ubunpoo with the experience ive had with it
[08:29] <ompaul> blazemonger, be nice
[08:29] <blazemonger> ok ok
[08:29] <headphase> hdxx: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5964/
[08:30] <SonicChao> how do I remove my ubuntu partition?
[08:30] <Advanced> hey guys
[08:30] <padge> sigger_: That would have been convenient for the time being, however it would have left me in confusion as the circumstances are identical to that of /home and /home/padge
[08:30] <SonicChao> and make Windows use 100% of hte drive again?
[08:30] <soundray> ompaul: this person is resistant to advice or reason. I wasted half an hour of my wife with him or her yesterday
[08:30] <Advanced> i finally got it to boot
[08:30] <Advanced> it was trying to boot from sda instead of hda
[08:30] <Advanced> :)
[08:30] <RAW-mEAT> you have to be root to do echo y | .....
[08:30] <Advanced> but now i have another problem
[08:30] <ompaul> soundray, I called him a troll by another name
[08:30] <Cyrus25801> SonicChao: why do you want to do that
[08:30] <ompaul> but now .. hey
[08:30] <Advanced> when it loads in, i assume it reaches the login screen, but i cant see it
[08:30] <Advanced> as it says it is out of range on my monitor
[08:31] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: what have you found for N ?
[08:31] <Advanced> which is strange because its at 74 hz, yet my monitor can handle up to 75
[08:31] <SonicChao> Don't ask why, just tell me how. >>
[08:31] <Advanced> anyway, that aside, how can i lower it?
[08:31] <sigger_> padge: I hear you.  step 1 get it working right (i.e not by just forcing /sl with o+w). step 2 figure out why.
[08:31] <Advanced> i tried entering recovery mode but it just gives me a command line interface
[08:31] <Cyrus25801> SonicChao: you are being cocky and that way you wont get any answers
[08:31] <nusa42> Can any1 explain the relationship between the System->Preferences->Screen Resolution and xorg.conf file - Cause my edits doesn't match the resolution utility!?
[08:31] <SonicChao> sorry :<
[08:31] <cbx33> does anyone know how the ubuntu live cd remastering workd for edgy?
[08:31] <RAW-mEAT> soundray it was number 5
[08:32] <sacater> hey whats that thing on the bottom of the screen called, where its lined up with icons, and when you hover over one it grows bigger than the rest and can be clicked on, a bit like mac os
[08:32] <SonicChao> because I use windows more anyway?
[08:32] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, have you tried this at all?
[08:32] <RAW-mEAT> so i put echo y | grub-reboot 5
[08:32] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[08:32] <blazemonger> im about to try it
[08:32] <LiENUS> cbx33, whachutalking bout willis?
[08:32] <SonicChao> and my windows boot is slower with linux on the drive.
[08:32] <sigger_> padge: sorry, but I'm out of ideas.  I'm around for a bit if you have ideas or questions (or results!)
[08:32] <Cyrus25801> SonicChao: use norton partition magic
[08:32] <cbx33> LiENUS, remasytering a live cd
[08:32] <SonicChao> Cyrus25801, link?
[08:32] <blazemonger> my card is not a radeon chipset
[08:32] <mX> is it possible to make an installable preconfigured version of ubuntu?
[08:32] <Cyrus25801> SonicChao: so remove windows it sucks anyway
[08:32] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger,  nevermind I just saw your ins't radeon
[08:32] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: does it work when you run 'sudo grub-reboot 5' and just enter Y by hand?
[08:32] <hdxx> headphase: i think you need to install older liblaries, and then newer
[08:33] <Cyrus25801> SonicChao: search with google
[08:33] <SonicChao> Cyrus25801, I don't need your opinion. :<
[08:33] <padge> sigger_: I have changed ownership of sl to padge, and that fixes it.  Everything works exactly as I would expect, except group permissions are being ignored
[08:33] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, get a nvidia card.
[08:33] <SonicChao> I just want to remove it. Maybe some peple use windows more.
[08:33] <Advanced> guys, ubuntu boots out of range for my monitor, could someone help me fix this or link me to a page that will help?
[08:33] <hossasaur> hey, i just installed ubuntu, few questions
[08:33] <Cyrus25801> SonicChao: then piss of and get help somewhere else
[08:33] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, geforce4 ti 4200
[08:33] <hossasaur> can i go between workspaces with a keystroke?
[08:33] <sigger_> padge: ok, sorry I couldn't nail it down for ya
[08:33] <ompaul> SonicChao, well format it and then use append if it is available
[08:33] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle:i don't have access to a nvidia card
[08:33] <hossasaur> like alt-tab for windows
[08:33] <SonicChao> Is that what you would tell someone if they wanted to remove Ubuntu?
[08:33] <SonicChao> Windows*
[08:33] <Pici> Calm down.
[08:33] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, buy one from computergeeks.com it will be hella cheap
[08:33] <SonicChao> 'friendly' community, I'll keep that in mind.
[08:34] <soundray> hossasaur: I think you can configure one in System-Preferences-Keyboard Shortcuts
[08:34] <hossasaur> soundray: thanks
[08:34] <blazemonger> how much kel?
[08:34] <blazemonger> how can i tell it will work with my system?
[08:34] <Advanced> i guess i'll go back to searching the forum for hours again ;-;
[08:34] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger,  less than 50
[08:34] <blazemonger> or my motherboard
[08:34] <Cyrus25801> SonicChao: you are the one with cocky comments and bad attitude
[08:34] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger,  it's an old card.
[08:34] <blazemonger> i've invested all of my money in records and synths
[08:34] <mr_daniel> is there a way to save a .ram or .rm file to harddisk ?
[08:34] <SonicChao> Cyrus25801, actually no, I come with a question and get told my OS sucks.
[08:34] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger,  but it works great, with beryl with TCE
[08:34] <blazemonger> i don't have enough left over for computer upgrades
[08:34] <padge> sigger_: I appreciate your going through the steps with me anyway.  It's somehow comforting that the problem is genuine and I'm not just a tool :)
[08:34] <SonicChao> Not everyone has the same opinion as you. -.-
[08:34] <SeamusLP> http://www.digg.com/videos/educational/Rat_with_spinal_cord_injury_cured_with_embryonic_stem_cells
[08:35] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger,  yea I hear ya.
[08:35] <sigger_> padge: doesn
[08:35] <blazemonger> and besides i thought linux was for people who didnt want to upgrade..
[08:35] <headphase> hdxx: where do I ge them from?
[08:35] <RAW-mEAT> soundray yes this works.
[08:35] <nusa42> Any1 have experience with 915resolution utility?
[08:35] <ompaul> SonicChao, I suggested a way for you to do it
[08:35] <Cyrus25801> SonicChao: well the truth hurts (how do you crash windows.....nothing it does it all on it's own)
[08:35] <sigger_> padge: doesn't mean you're not ;)  happy to try to help.
[08:35] <RAW-mEAT> but it says something with bios supports only 18 cylinders..
[08:35] <gogogadget> I have wpa_supplicant installed but there is no .conf file
[08:35] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, no linux isn't for people who can't upgrade.
[08:35] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: does it shut down properly?
[08:35] <blazemonger> I can't upgrade
[08:35] <RAW-mEAT> no it reboots and when i select by hand "shutdown" it turns down immiadetly.
[08:36] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, ok you can't upgrade...and you need a stable system...us no screensaver.
[08:36] <soundray> SonicChao: are you still looking for advice on removing ubuntu? Or has the desire to fight taken over?
[08:36] <padge> sigger_: Haha, I hadn't considered that possiblility(watch, the solution to this will involve similar thinking).  If I think of it, I'll let you know what the problem is as soon as I get it worked out
[08:36] <blazemonger> i have ati radeon card 9600 laying next to me that i tried to use when trying to build my own system, i built the system put things together and accidentally dropped a joint on the motherboard
[08:36] <SonicChao> ompaul, thanks :3
[08:36] <SonicChao> soundray, still would like an explanation...
[08:36] <blazemonger> and baby went up in smoke lol
[08:37] <hossasaur> also, how do i install codecs for mplayer and movie player?
[08:37] <sigger_> padge: thanks.  Look forward to hearing what (likely silly) thing I missed too.
[08:37] <SonicChao> I don't know how to format.
[08:37] <hdxx> headphase: type in console: sudo apt-cache search packet_name .. in your case sudo apt-cache search kdelibs4c2a .. and so on.. but before you gonan install, trype sudo apt-get remove packet_name .. and then install (sudo apt-get install packet_name
[08:37] <meisam> soundray whta was the name of the file u told me to open up?
[08:37] <hossasaur> i downloaded the codec package for mplayer, but i can't get access to the usr/lib directory
[08:37] <hossasaur> i need to be admin?
[08:37] <Arcad3> any how to ...change ubuntu edgy boot splash with one o my own?
[08:37] <maelvino`> dunno
[08:37] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: but doing the grub-reboot 5 should boot into the shutdown menu option automatically...
[08:37] <blazemonger> another time i installed a sound card and didn't realize my computer was on (i thought it was off),
[08:37] <soundray> meisam: 'sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat5.5 restart'
[08:38] <Gon> whats a good torrent client for ubuntu?
[08:38] <Pici> !usplash  | Arcad3
[08:38] <soundray> meisam: gksudo gedit /etc/default/tomcat5.5
[08:38] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, man I thought I'de never say this to anyone. you have to stop smoking man
[08:38] <Arcad3> !usplash
[08:38] <Gon> anyone?
[08:38] <blazemonger> why do i need to stop smoking?
[08:38] <hossasaur> i'm having booting troubles
[08:38] <Pici> Arcad3: The bot is lagging.. :/
[08:38] <hossasaur> before installing ubuntu, i was running vista
[08:38] <soundray> SonicChao: boot the desktop CD, open gparted, remove the ubuntu partitions and resize the Windows one to cover the freed space.
[08:38] <ciga> Anyone would help me out how to use a double layered DVD-RAM disc?
[08:38] <blazemonger> how's vista hossasaur?
[08:38] <hossasaur> before installing vista, i set up all partitions needed for both
[08:38] <RAW-mEAT> soundray my system does not boot now it says maximum of cylinders exeedet
[08:38] <Arcad3> Pici r u from ro?
[08:38] <hossasaur> blazemonger: i actually really like it
[08:38] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, yo you tried to install hardware with your system still running.
[08:39] <nusa42> Gon: Nice stealth ' dropbox-like client is mldonkey - just "apt-get install mldonkey-server"
[08:39] <Pici> Arcad3: Nope. US
[08:39] <blazemonger> really hossasaur? will it run on a p4 ?
[08:39] <SonicChao> soundray, ok, I heard somewhere you should defrag windows first, is this true?
[08:39] <hossasaur> blazemonger: it took a little finessing
[08:39] <Gon> thx
[08:39] <blazemonger> i dont care about the aero crap
[08:39] <hossasaur> i have no idea
[08:39] <meisam> soundray i have added this: JAVA_HOME=/home/meisam/jdk1.6.0/bin is that right?
[08:39] <ubotu> Arcad3: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[08:39] <ompaul> blazemonger, kindly keep the conversation in a chat room this is a support channel and not for vista
[08:39] <soundray> SonicChao: no
[08:39] <phaded> Greetings all
[08:39] <blazemonger> ompaul ok...sorry
[08:39] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, http://www.geeks.com/products.asp?cat=VCD
[08:39] <hossasaur> anyways, prior to installing vista, i set up the partitions
[08:39] <SonicChao> soundray, ok, thanks :3 I wrote down what you said and will try it when I have free time
[08:39] <soundray> SonicChao: it used to be true, when you were downsizing, but not any more
[08:39] <nusa42> Gon: Uses a web based interface as default - but there's several GUI utilities for it...
[08:39] <hossasaur> one ntfs for vista, one fat32 for media, one ext3 for ubuntu, one swap
[08:39] <blazemonger> i'm nowhere close to geek Kelbizzle
[08:39] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, there cheap cards all under 100 bucks  and they are some really good cards.
[08:40] <hossasaur> installed vista, everything worked
[08:40] <hossasaur> installed ubuntu, now i can't get into vista
[08:40] <blazemonger> only thing is who will install the video card?
[08:40] <LiENUS> vista sucks :/
[08:40] <soundray> meisam: no, JAVA_HOME=/home/meisam/jdk1.6.0
[08:40] <blazemonger> i've never successfully put a computer together
[08:40] <hossasaur> if i click vista longhorn in grub, it hangs at a loading screen
[08:40] <Cyrus25801> LiENUS: i'm with you
[08:40] <blazemonger> or installed a video card
[08:40] <hossasaur> i didn't format that partition while installing ubuntu
[08:40] <hossasaur> i left it alone
[08:40] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, I could walk you through that shyt over the phone yo. you sound like my gf.
[08:40] <blazemonger> successfully
[08:40] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  thats expected...
[08:40] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: you can't boot into ubuntu any more?
[08:40] <blazemonger> i always have to pay people to do it
[08:40] <hossasaur> did grub mess up something with the boot process of vista/
[08:40] <battlesquid> vista? what's the point... vista isn't much more than winxp in a new packaging
[08:40] <Cyrus25801> LiENUS: yea
[08:40] <LiENUS> battlesquid,  no its a lot more
[08:40] <hossasaur> LiENUS: what can i do to fix it/
[08:40] <blazemonger> Kelbizzle:you could walk me through it?
[08:41] <blazemonger> the local computer shop wants to charge me $100 for installing a video card
[08:41] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  vista prolly hangs because of grub
[08:41] <Kelbizzle> blazemonger, yea man.
[08:41] <RAW-mEAT> soundray only in secure mode
[08:41] <hossasaur> LiENUS: so what should i do to fix it?
[08:41] <ompaul> !offtopic
[08:41] <phaded> I'm not sure if it's improper to ask this here, considering I'm running Kubuntu. I recently installed the newest Kubuntu and had no problems except for one thing. I can't get the sound working in Amarok or Kaffeiene. I'm running integrated sound, and the sound works elsewhere.It's just those two programs. Anyone have any idea how to remedy this?

[08:41] <blazemonger> sorry about my language
[08:41] <LiENUS> hossasaur, vista has a bunch of drm  junk in it and most likely its detecting grub and saying "nuh uh its not signed by ms"
[08:41] <RAW-mEAT> okay.
[08:42] <ompaul> LiENUS, that is offtopic please leave it
[08:42] <blazemonger> i'm educated just not in computers/technology

[08:42] <Kelbizzle> yo Im me
[08:42] <hossasaur> LiENUS: i haven't run linux in 10 years, how do i change it?
[08:42] <blazemonger> ok

[08:43] <battlesquid> kick these spammers!
[08:43] <ompaul> LiENUS, the whole starting about it is a bunch of drm
[08:43] <hossasaur> ompaul: he's helping me with grub

[08:43] <soundray> meisam: but I'm glad you're up and running
[08:43] <phaded> lol
[08:43] <LiENUS> ompaul, why does ubuntu include grub on the cd if its unsupported?
[08:43] <sacater> whats the command to send a window to another workspace
[08:44] <ompaul> LiENUS, I think you know the answer to tha
[08:44] <ompaul> t
[08:44] <meisam> soundray ok, dude then i have added this line to the bashrc fro java path to compile my java file, should i ommit bin at the end also there?
[08:44] <marcel> I got a message "Could not exec dpkg!" what is that?
[08:44] <LiENUS> ompaul, ubotu says grub is supported by ubuntu, so apparently im not offtopic
[08:44] <Kelbizzle> grub wouldn't be offtopi
[08:44] <hossasaur> LiENUS: i haven't run linux in 10 years, i'm sort of new to this again, how do i fix this? do i get rid of grub?
[08:44] <phaded> It means it couldn't exec dpkg ;D
[08:44] <LiENUS> ompaul,  so i will continue helping him
[08:44] <ompaul> and did I say it was  unsupported - your comments were more addressed to the unsupported aspects
[08:44] <soundray> meisam: no, they are two different things
[08:44] <ompaul> LiENUS, work away
[08:44] <sacater> whats the command to send a window to another workspace
[08:44] <soundray> meisam: (java home directory and path to java executables)
[08:45] <meisam> soundray ok ok, dun take ur time anymore
[08:45] <meisam> sorry
[08:45] <meisam> thx
[08:45] <soundray> meisam: no problem
[08:45] <phaded> sacater: you can actually drag the programs window in the tray area over there
[08:45] <phaded> sacater: well, not the tray area, but down on the open program list
[08:45] <Cyrus25801> sorry about just now guys. With the windows dood.if you look at the conversation you will see that he was really being rood. but any way njoy. c ya
[08:45] <marcel> I am trying to download updates and get this message" could not exec dpkg!" what can I do?
[08:45] <nusa42> Hmm .. Anyone have any advice of setting 1360x768 resolution?
[08:46] <sacater> phaded: kk that works, but is there a key command
[08:46] <soundray> nusa42: have you tried 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'?
[08:46] <phaded> sacater: I'm not entirely sure. I'm rather new myself. I'll look it up :D
[08:46] <marcel> no
[08:46] <RAW-mEAT> soundray: www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/7563
[08:46] <nusa42> soundray: yeah - doesn't add this ood resolution
[08:47] <sacater> phaded: ty
[08:47] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  gimme a min...
[08:48] <RAW-mEAT> soundray i added line 152 and 153
[08:48] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  !pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:48] <LiENUS> !pastebin hossasaur
[08:48] <ompaul> marcel, what are you using to do the updates with?
[08:48] <LiENUS> !pastebin | hossasaur
[08:48] <ubotu> hossasaur: 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 (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:48] <nusa42> soundray: ive configured xorg.conf with modelines, but the "screen resolution" utility does not reassemble the newly configured xorg when restarted.
[08:49] <marcel> there is an icon on the top  - I just double click
[08:49] <hossasaur> LiENUS: one sec
[08:49] <phopos> hi
[08:50] <phopos> I have some problems with a USB 2.0 PCI Hub
[08:50] <phaded> sacater: i cant seem to find a command. i'm as stumped as you are but i will continue to look
[08:50] <headphase> hdxx: do I have to do this for all of them
[08:50] <igor> hi all..
[08:50] <sorush20> is there a restore to a recoverypoint program like in windows in linux?
[08:50] <chaoticg33k> hello everyone
[08:50] <iosdfjdosi> hi
[08:50] <phaded> hello igor, chaotic
[08:50] <phopos> i plugged the pci hub but when connecting a webcam (usb 2.0) it appears as connected to a USB 1.1 port
[08:50] <phopos> why is that?
[08:50] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: that looks all right. Try a 'sudo grub-install /dev/hda'
[08:50] <dave__> Hi, I have just installed ubuntu and so far love it.  one thing which is bugging me is the resolution.  I am using a 19" lcd and that requires 1024x1200ish and the largest available in the res settings is 1024x768.  how do i get a bigger res then this?
[08:50] <headphase> hdxx: and if I do, do I remove all of them before I install any of them?
[08:51] <chaoticg33k> I start the long process of trasnfering my music to my linux
[08:51] <ompaul> !resolution | dave__
[08:51] <ubotu> dave__: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:51] <hdxx> headphase: yes because you need older version to isntall fist, then you can update on newer
[08:51] <apollo2011> I am having some trouble with the ubuntu repos. I am trying to install the kde-devel package, but it won't install because there are some package dependencies that are not going to be installed. Can someone help me?
[08:51] <soundray> nusa42: have you seen this http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:51] <soundray> ?
[08:51] <igor> why my ubuntu keeps trying to conect to: {TCP} cen02.ibeu.org.br(<IP_ADDRESS>):53256 -> po-in-f91.google.com(<IP_ADDRESS>):80
[08:51] <LiENUS> igor, you running firefox?
[08:51] <hdxx> headphase: when did you isntall ubbuntu ?
[08:51] <phaded> I get no sound out of Kaffeine or Amarok, but sound from everything else. Anyone know why?
[08:51] <hossasaur> LiENUS: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5972/
[08:52] <hossasaur> this question is dumb, but how do i login as admin?
[08:52] <phaded> hoss: You can't
[08:52] <headphase> hdxx: this morning
[08:52] <Zoohouse> I want to update from phpbb phpBB 2.0.21 to phpbb2.0.22. All i need is "phpBB 2.0.22 [ Changed Files Only ] " file right? Steps: backup database and config log then override new files?? thats all I have to do??
[08:52] <dacks> hossasaur, 'sudo su'
[08:52] <phaded> hoss: If you need to use super user priveledges, use the sudo command in xterm
[08:52] <IceTox> Hey! Using Wine emulator, where is the C hdd located?
[08:52] <hossasaur> phaded: then how do i change files in root directory?
[08:52] <LiENUS> IceTox, ~/.wine/drive_c
[08:53] <soundray> phaded: maybe they are configured to use arts. Reconfigure for alsa output.
[08:53] <Zoohouse> opps, wrong channel. Sorry
[08:53] <LiENUS> hossasaur, windows vista is installed in the first partition right?
[08:53] <IceTox> thanks a lot LiENUS :-)
[08:53] <hossasaur> LiENUS: yes
[08:53] <hdxx> headphase: i think is better to do fresh install..  i think your packets messed
[08:53] <phaded> hoss: You should be able to do it in an xterm window
[08:53] <igor> LiENUS: yes I am
[08:53] <hdxx> headphase: and i will give you my sourecs,list
[08:53] <phaded> soundray: thanks i will try
[08:53] <LiENUS> IceTox, do ls -al ~/.wine/dosdevices to see all the drives and their locations
[08:53] <headphase> hdxx: so do I remove all of them?
[08:53] <hossasaur> phaded: eh...what's an xterm window?
[08:53] <hdxx> headphase: yes
[08:53] <LiENUS> igor, ubuntu 6.06 or 6.10?
[08:54] <dsquare> hi im having some difficulty obtaining the GPG key from http://ubuntu.berylproject.org...when i type the command my cursor just blinks but there is no network traffic...
[08:54] <igor> LiENUS: 6.10 edgy
[08:54] <phaded> hoss: Right click on the desktop, Execute command, type xterm and hit enter
[08:54] <IceTox> yah, thanks a lot LiENUS :-)
[08:54] <dave__> ompaul: where is the sudo?
[08:54] <soundray> hossasaur: open a terminal and run 'sudo -i'. You will have root rights for everything you do in that terminal after that.
[08:54] <LiENUS> igor, thats firefox's google toolbar, it pulls search statistics
[08:54] <l00x> ubuntu.beryl-project.org
[08:54] <HeavyMetaller> salve qui aiuto per ubuntu?
[08:54] <nusa42> soundray: yeah - used 915resolution instead - no dice. The resolutions I put in xorg.conf isn't added when i restart the system. However if I just do the 915resolution hack and restart X, then I get the 1360x768 fine - when I restart, it's back to default resolutions again (/etc/default/915resolution startup script is configured and an additional script in init.d with the actual hack is also present)
[08:55] <ompaul> dave__, in a terminal I have to work now
[08:55] <hossasaur> soundray: thanks, do i have to do this every time i open the terminal, or restart? or is this permanent?
[08:55] <igor> LiENUS: damn god
[08:55] <LiENUS> hossasaur, http://www.pro-networks.org/forum/about78184.html#dualboot try reading that...
[08:55] <CaptainMorgan> how do I change a trackpad settings(IBM) so that when I scroll and move the mouse at the same time, backward and forward buttons are NOT pressed?
[08:55] <LiENUS> igor, whats wrong with that?
[08:55] <soundray> hossasaur: it's only for the one terminal session
[08:56] <igor> LiENUS: I recieve a huge firewall LOG in the end of day.. think about 200 client ubuntu hosts doing this
[08:56] <hossasaur> soundray: is there a way to permanently make this work?
[08:56] <CaptainMorgan> it scrolls, but if pressed a certain way, then the last page visited forward or back will appear
[08:56] <sacater> phaded: kk
[08:56] <hossasaur> LiENUS: thanks
[08:56] <soundray> nusa42: is that init.d script linked from the /etc/rc?.d directories?
[08:56] <LiENUS> igor,  so filter it out
[08:56] <CaptainMorgan> I didn't recall this happening in Hoary, but maybe it's something to do with my conf
[08:56] <soundray> nusa42: alternatively, call the init.d script from /etc/rc.local
[08:56] <student2> my repository list doesn't refresh
[08:56] <igor> LiENUS: now that  I know what is this.. I will.. thankz LiENUS
[08:56] <headphase> hdxx: could you give it to me now, I have a class in 30 min
[08:56] <student2> it's taking forever
[08:56] <nusa42> yeah - should be - followed a tutorial -
[08:57] <student2> I'm in a class
[08:57] <fbarc> anoyone know how to get ltwinmodems working?
[08:57] <nixion252> how do i add a album or artist columns to my mp3 folders in nautilus
[08:57] <tonyyarusso> fbarc: sometimes.  linmodems.org, !dialup
[08:57] <soundray> hossasaur: no, you will have to use sudo -i everytime you want to do administration. Please don't set it up any differently, because the Ubuntu design is inherently more secure than any 'login as admin'-hacks
[08:57] <LiENUS> !modem | fbarc
[08:57] <ubotu> fbarc: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[08:57] <student2> does anyone know what repository downloading failed mean?
[08:57] <drees> Hallo allemaal
[08:58] <plagerism> How would I make portmap start before the sytem tries to mount auto filesystems??  I want to put /usr/ /sbin/ and others on readonly filesystem and serve them to multiple nodes with nfs, however when it boots up it cant mount them cause portmap isnt started
[08:58] <drees> hello roomies, greetings from Holland
[08:58] <marcel> when I use synoptic to install it tells me "could not exec dpkg!" what can I do?
[08:58] <hossasaur> soundray: thanks
[08:58] <bauer77> can having to big a swap file slow the system down ? And if so how would I adjust the swapfile?
[08:58] <LiENUS> marcel, how are you launching synaptic?
[08:58] <cmp1988> Anyone here can help me get a D-Link DWL-G132 working on Ubuntu and Ubuntu-derivatives based on edgy?
[08:58] <Dame> !video capture
[08:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about video capture - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:58] <hdxx> headphase: ok just a minute
[08:58] <bauer77> I make it 1.5 times my  memory, is that to much
[08:58] <marcel> system - administration - synoptic
[08:58] <soundray> bauer77: no, and no
[08:59] <bauer77> soundray: thanks
[08:59] <RAW-mEAT> soundray now iam waiting after i did gksudo grub-reboot 5
[08:59] <unop> bauer77,  linux uses only that much swap space it needs -- so having a huge swap partition make no difference to one that is sufficient
[08:59] <chaoticg33k> anyone know how to make xchat go to the system tray when I minimze/close?
[08:59] <dave__> can anyone quickly tell me how to get into the sudo?
[08:59] <varkatope> marcel: do you have another program running, like the updatemanager?
[08:59] <headphase> hdxx: I think I made a mistake
[08:59] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: it won't work with gksudo. Use sudo for command-line programs
[08:59] <RAW-mEAT> ok
[08:59] <Ian_> Hey guys, I'm trying to install grub on my fakeraid array (using dmraid), and upon running grub-install /dev/mapper/sil_aeahdfdcbdba, I'm met with the error 'sil_aeahdfdcbdba5 has no corresponding BIOS drive' .. sil_aeahdfdcbdba5 is my first logical parition (second over-all) and is mounted to /boot.
[09:00] <thekidrio> dave__: type sudo followed by command to use sudo
[09:00] <hdxx> headphase: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5976/
[09:00] <hdxx> but this is for edgy eft
[09:00] <marcel> not sure, I actually double click an Icon that appears on the top of my Gnome window - right side
[09:00] <dave__> thekidrio: do that on the desktop?
[09:00] <Muzik83> Ian_: not 100% sure on this, but i dont think you can boot off of a "fake" raid array
[09:00] <cmp1988> Ok, whenever I try the normal Ndiswrapper stuff on edgy, as soon as I get to the $ modprobe ndiswrapper  part, the system hangs, any ideas?
[09:00] <hossasaur> LiENUS: iirc, i saw install say it was using a scsi drive
[09:00] <hossasaur> LiENUS: is there a way to check?
[09:00] <thekidrio> dave__: do that inside a terminal
[09:00] <Ian_> Muzik83, with dmraid. It's dodgy, but it works.
[09:01] <marcel> when I mouseover it tells me "there are 65 updates available"
[09:01] <X3N> Hello, Is anyone here connected via the ISP BT (yahoo) ?
[09:01] <Muzik83> Ian_: ok nm then :p
[09:01] <Dame> Can somebody recommend some good video capturing program?
[09:01] <drees> test
[09:01] <eriklo> disk UUID in fstab? How very... new
[09:01] <thekidrio> applications --> accessories --> terminal
[09:01] <LiENUS> hossasaur, is this your personal home pc?
[09:01] <dave__> thekidrio: sorry to be a little thick, but what and where is a terminal?
[09:01] <hossasaur> LiENUS: personal laptop
[09:01] <dacks> marcel, you probably want to install those updates to stay current
[09:01] <soundray> eriklo: very cool, too ;)
[09:01] <AMD> how do i send a file using bluetooth
[09:01] <LiENUS> hossasaur, its ide
[09:01] <marcel> yes
[09:01] <Ian_> I'm going to go and look up the grub error, Muzik83, but I was hoping someone might have some experience with dmraid
[09:01] <drees> test
[09:01] <thekidrio> dave__:  applications --> accessories --> terminal
[09:01] <hdxx> headphase: like i said install ubuntu again, and use my repos.
[09:02] <marcel> but it doesn't let me
[09:02] <unop> X3N,  BT != Yahoo :p
[09:02] <eriklo> soundray: Oh well, have to read up on it
[09:02] <dacks> marcel, why not
[09:02] <dave__> thekidrio: cheers mate
[09:02] <RAW-mEAT> soundray now the error with the 18 cylinders while booting happens again.
[09:02] <AMD> i have Bluetooth File Sharing 0.8.0 installed
[09:02] <thekidrio> dave__: terminal gives you access to the command line :)
[09:02] <cmp1988> terminal is the scary black and white box that does things to your comptuer
[09:02] <dave__> thekidrio: similar to ms dos then?
[09:02] <X3N> unop: that's the isp package name because they tie in services from Yahoo
[09:02] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  unless you payed extra for a scsi laptop...
[09:02] <marcel> it gives me a message "could not exec dpkg!'
[09:03] <IceTox> Anyone know if there's any good software out for broadcasting music and being a radio host using ubuntu?
[09:03] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: but only if you boot the default, correct? Recovery works?
[09:03] <unop> X3N,  aye indeed -- I was a BT/Yahoo customer for about 2 years
[09:03] <thekidrio> dave__:  yeah similar in input :)
[09:03] <phaded> I used to go by the nick x3n for like 13 years. Heh.
[09:03] <cmp1988> Anyone know how to disable a native linux atheros driver to get my Wireless card to work?
[09:03] <phaded> I also owned x3n.net xD
[09:03] <RAW-mEAT> soundray yes recovery works
[09:04] <soundray> cmp1988: edit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[09:04] <RAW-mEAT> so i fixed it again with grub-install
[09:04] <X3N> phaded: always wondered who owned that, i've got x3n.me.uk and wanted x3n.net for my server's host names :p
[09:04] <profoX`> ALSA stopped working.. whats the best way of fixing that? (no process should be blocking alsa anymore, but i think flash 9 kinda screwed up when i closed firefox)
[09:05] <phaded> x3n: Well, I'm not quite sure who owns it any longer. The domain name company that I purchased off of went bankrupt. Heh.
[09:05] <moconnor> Is there a way in Debian or Ubuntu to get a list of packages that will be installed/updated other than running upgrade/dist-upgrade and parsing its intended-for-humans output?
[09:05] <RAW-mEAT> and now the system does not shut down again. :[
[09:05] <RAW-mEAT> it freezes.
[09:05] <arod> anybody using sensors-applet? mine says it can't find any sensors
[09:05] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: this is really weird, because your kernel locations are identical for default and recovery
[09:05] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: well, we never actually fixed the crash on shutdown
[09:06] <profoX`> how can I see what apps could be blocking ALSA? lsof|grep -i snd ?
[09:06] <RAW-mEAT> oh, ok so i have to press the 5 sec button anyway?
[09:06] <profoX`> or whats the device used by ALSA nowadays
[09:06] <LiENUS> moconnor,  you want to progmatically access that data?
[09:06] <phaded> profox: I'm having issues with ALSA as well. I can get NO sound out of Kaffeine. I tried changing it to ALSA, and set the wait setting for ALSA under control panel to 1. :(
[09:06] <cmp1988> soundray: What would I do to disable the Atheros chipset in my DWL-G132 Wireless USB dongle?
[09:06] <RAW-mEAT> or how can i shut down now without repair my system all the time after rebooting with grub-reboot 5 ?
[09:06] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: yes, unless we get the grub-reboot to boot into the shutdown section
[09:06] <linxeh> moconnor: why not apt-get -q -s dist-upgrade, and then just grep for the "Inst" lines ?
[09:06] <soundray> cmp1988: set ath_hal as disabled
[09:07] <RAW-mEAT> okay ubuntu-team is working on it?
[09:07] <cmp1988> soundray: Inside the quotes or no? as it shows in the example?
[09:07] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: by "we" I mean you and me
[09:07] <hossasaur> ugh, where do i find gparted?
[09:08] <RAW-mEAT> oh okay.
[09:08] <soundray> DISABLED_MODULES="ath_hal" cmp1988
[09:08] <hossasaur> is it only on the live disc?
[09:08] <cmp1988> soundray: thank you very much
[09:08] <cmp1988> soundray: I'll try that
[09:08] <RAW-mEAT> then iam ready now. system booted and repaired. ;)
[09:08] <kgalens> Say I had a desktop.  And I wanted to purchase a wireless card for said desktop ( pci or otherwise ).  Any recomendations of a chipset that might work well with Edgy?
[09:08] <cmp1988> soundray: One more quick question, do I have to reboot for effect or no?
[09:09] <babo> guys, what's the ubuntu/debian version of chkconfig ?
[09:09] <soundray> RAW-mEAT: I need you to explain this to me once more, please. Would you prefer to go to #ubuntu-de ?
[09:09] <chaoticg33k> I don't like rythmbox
[09:09] <RAW-mEAT> okay.
[09:09] <joeljkp> how do i get dhcp to not clobber by dns entries?
[09:09] <soundray> cmp1988: no, you can probably 'sudo rmmod ath_hal'
[09:09] <joeljkp> *my
[09:09] <cmp1988> soundray: thanks again
[09:10] <pbureau> kgalens, any atheros or Broadcomm based cards are pretty easy to install
[09:10] <quaal> how do i login to my ubuntu share with osx
[09:10] <quaal> i can access fine with winxp
[09:10] <soundray> chaoticg33k: 'cat file.mp3 >/dev/dsp' for great effect ;)
[09:11] <kgalens> pbureau: hmm, I have a broadcomm card right now and I've installed many drivers for it;  the current (and best that has worked) lets me stay connected for about an hour at a time
[09:11] <pbureau> kgalens, what chipset is it ? and are you using ndiswrapper drivers ?
[09:11] <kgalens> two hours if I'm having a stellar day
[09:11] <pbureau> kgalens, I use a broadcomm all day long without a problem
[09:12] <ran_> if i run some videos in either mplayer or totem theres no vertical sync. i enabled vertical sync for my ati radeon but it doesnt seem to have any effect when i play videos. anyone know how to correct this?
[09:12] <kgalens> hmm, would the manufacturer have anything to do with it?
[09:12] <dsquare> my gedit-root and sudo gedit won't work!! gedit will launch though.. why please? i jhust upgraded to edgy
[09:12] <pbureau> kgalens, the rev of the chipset does.
[09:12] <kgalens> I tried using ndiswrapper, yes
[09:12] <hossasaur> where can i find partition information for my hd?
[09:12] <pbureau> kgalens, do a lspci and look for the wifi card, copy and paste only that one line info here please
[09:12] <LiENUS> dsquare,  try "gksudo gedit"
[09:12] <kgalens> ah, well I'm not at the computer yet, and I don't remember the version
[09:12] <hossasaur> i just want to know the root entries
[09:13] <horizon> alright, I'm trying to debug my manpages, because I can't get to any C-related ones, like strcpy.
[09:13] <kgalens> pburueau: thanks for the help, I'll have to come back in when I'm at the computer
[09:13] <hossasaur> i can't find gparted, and qtparted only sees my usb drive

[09:13] <dsquare> im just gonna reboot i think
[09:14] <dsquare> bbl :)
[09:14] <CaptainMorgan> anyone have a thinkpad? I simply wish to scroll either up or down the page, which it does for a slight moment, then depending on the pressure I apply to the trackpoint it will revisit the last page visited
[09:14] <CaptainMorgan> this didn't happen in Hoary, and my /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the same
[09:14] <LiENUS> Caplain,  cool
[09:15] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, I know this isn't an answer, but I chose to disable the touchpad and use the buttons of the trackpoint.
[09:15] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, scrolling requires the trackpoint buttons as well as the trackpoint
[09:15] <CaptainMorgan> pressure at the same time
[09:15] <pbureau> CaptainMorgan, do you use gnome, didyou check the settings in system-preferences -mouse ?
[09:16] <CaptainMorgan> unless you're using the standard scroll bar to the right hand side
[09:16] <danny> Hi folks! I'm mostly a noobie at this linux thing. Anyway, can someone tell me how to install a program under KDE as a super user. When I try to enter my password under "Execute Shell Command" I just get a Konqueror box that won't let me type anything.
[09:16] <pbureau> danny, sudo
[09:16] <CaptainMorgan> pbureau, not much to configure there ;)
[09:16] <joeljkp> wow, that was easy
[09:16] <joeljkp> dhclient.conf
[09:17] <CaptainMorgan> pbureau,  unless it's a sensitivity issue
[09:17] <pbureau> CaptainMorgan, not familiar with the scroll point on an IBM, but mine give me issues on my toshiba when I have exteral mouse connected to it..
[09:17] <danny> pbureau, I type sudo before the command but I just get a box asking for my password but won't let me type anything.
[09:18] <pbureau> danny,  hummm
[09:18] <CaptainMorgan> no externals connected here pbureau, hmm..
[09:18] <pbureau> CaptainMorgan, just trying to help :) eliminations you know...
[09:18] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, could you elaborate? Mine is working fine.
[09:18] <CaptainMorgan> pbureau, understood, thank you
[09:19] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, elaborate on which portion?
[09:19] <pbureau> CaptainMorgan, maybe check IBM website (doubt they can help but..) maybe have a driver for it..? or maybe do a broadband search on google for linux and ibm touchpad ? and see if anyone else had this issue and possibly find a solution.. sorry all I got in my hat...
[09:19] <linux_kid> When I play online embedded videos with the Mplayer Mozilla Plugin, only sound occurs, no movie, any help?
[09:19] <alvarezp> How exactly are you trying to scroll? I have no other option here but to drag the scrollbar.. I was wandering if you were doing it some other way.
[09:20] <hossasaur> LiENUS: i'm almost positive it's already set up correctly
[09:20] <hossasaur> LiENUS: it detected vista when i installed grub
[09:20] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  you might be running into vista's drm then
[09:20] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, steps: I open a page, google.com. I browse to a search result. I like the result and I decide to scroll to the bottom of the page using the trackpoint buttons and trackpoint at the same time. About half way through I am taken back to the previous search engine result - previous page.
[09:20] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, (forgot to ping)
[09:21] <hossasaur> LiENUS: because it boots to the load screen for vista, then hangs
[09:21] <danny> OK, I'm trying to install VMware. When I try "Execute Shell Command" in Konq using the command './vmware-install.pl' it asks for my password, but when I enter sudo before that I just get a box that won't let me type anything.
[09:21] <ddude> Help!!! mY cisco vpnclient stopt working after update !?!?
[09:21] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  sounds like drm
[09:21] <hossasaur> LiENUS: how do i get around this? others seem to have no troubles
[09:21] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, "using the trackpoint buttons and trackpoint at the same time" -- Are you dragging the scroll bar?
[09:21] <chump> hi everyone
[09:22] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, sorry for too much asking, just trying to duplicate the problem here.
[09:22] <ddude> serious problem: mY cisco vpnclient stopt working after update !?!? help pleaase
[09:23] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, not dragging anything, including a scroll bar. My mouse pointer is simply concetrated on the current page, and I simply depress the left trackpoint button AND the trackpoint(pushed or scrolled down)
[09:23] <craigbass76> I need to install the samba package where there's no internet access.  What do I need to do?
[09:23] <hossasaur> LiENUS: actually, is there a way to check the hd's root directories?
[09:23] <ddude> this is a serious issue please help me out to understand why after an update, i cannot start my vpnclient iTS inSANE
[09:23] <hossasaur> iirc, vista was on sda0 or something
[09:24] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, it won't scroll unless I depress the left trackpoint button.. otherwise if I just move the trackpoint it's just as if I am moving a mouse pointer around
[09:24] <LiENUS> hossasaur, df -h
[09:24] <LiENUS> paste the line
[09:24] <LiENUS> paste the first moutn line
[09:24] <LiENUS> first mount line
[09:24] <clustu> hey
[09:24] <ubuntuTEMP> hi, i just restarted and had an X FAILED TO START Message, so im reinstalling, how do i see my partitions? they arnt showing up in computer
[09:24] <Seeker`> ~/wc
[09:24] <clustu> which package contains man pages for C routines?
[09:24] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, my /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the same as in Hoary, setup according to ThinkWiki
[09:24] <LJHarb> i need to recompile mysql to use the sphinx search engine, im using ubuntu dapper and am quite new to linux. can anyone walk me through it?
[09:25] <danny> Would Kubuntu Feisty Herd 3 be stable enough for daily-to-day use?
[09:25] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, I just can't seem to achieve any scrolling at all like that. -- What browser? And, are you using a plugin?
[09:25] <hossasaur> LiENUS: it doesn't show my vista partition, but it does show my ext3 and fat32
[09:25] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, you may not have your xorg.conf setup to allow scrolling as I have
[09:25] <hossasaur> which are both sda's
[09:25] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  paste the first line
[09:26] <marcel> I am trying to send an email with evolution and get this message: "could not send message : broken pipe

[09:26] <duckdown> Hey all.. Got a question, it is SSH/PuTTY related.  In putty, you can open a SOCKS port that is available to outside users by clicking an option off in tunnels.  I have gotten it to listen locally manually using ssh by doing 'ssh -D#### hostname' then I can use #### as a proxy, but how do I make it available to ALL users on my network like Putty
[09:26] <hossasaur> LiENUS: /dev/sda2              15G  2.5G   12G  18% /

[09:26] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp,
[09:26] <LiENUS> hmm then apparently for some reason you are using scsi hossasaur ...
[09:26] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  thisi s a laptop?
[09:26] <hossasaur> LiENUS: yessir
[09:27] <LiENUS> hossasaur, what brand?
[09:27] <hossasaur> hp dv2035us
[09:27] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, /me is checking.
[09:27] <LJHarb> i need to recompile mysql to use the sphinx search engine, im using ubuntu dapper and am quite new to linux. can anyone walk me through it?
[09:27] <LiENUS> 1 sec..
[09:27] <CaptainMorgan> paste mine? it's same as in that page... Ill paste it anyways... alvarezp
[09:27] <LiENUS> might be something like sata..
[09:27] <hossasaur> that must be it
[09:28] <duckdown> Is there an SSH channel?
[09:28] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, it's ok.
[09:28] <ubuntuTEMP> how do i mount /dev/sda2 and see it in nautilus?
[09:28] <moconnor> linxeh: Grepping the output of apt-get -q -s dist-upgrade is exactly what I needed.  Thank you
[09:28] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, I'm looking at that one. I'll try to set up mine.
[09:29] <KarlosII> where do i find the php.ini file?
[09:29] <marcel> anyone knows Evolution?
[09:29] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, here is my xorg.conf: http://rafb.net/p/3GyN6H21.html
[09:29] <CaptainMorgan> alvarezp, let me know yours goes :)
[09:29] <CaptainMorgan> *how
[09:29] <ddude> question: Kernel update screws up my cisco vpn client and my video card driver....this i would have never thought.  please, i really appreciate if someone can help me understand here why these things can happen, because i like ubuntu very much BUT THIS CANNOT HAPPEN
[09:29] <ubuntuTEMP> how do i mount /dev/sda2 and see it in nautilus?
[09:30] <hossasaur> LiENUS: why would linux boot if it's set the same way?
[09:30] <Lynoure> marcel: me. But if you want an answer to something, you'll have to tell to what.
[09:30] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  pastebin lspci
[09:30] <LiENUS> hossasaur, run "lspci" and pastebin the output
[09:30] <linux_kid> Do I need to do anything else besides install the package "mplayer-mozilla" to play videos in Firefox with Mplayer??
[09:30] <quaal> why is it that i can login to my ubuntu share with winxp fine but macosx is saying the login is incorrect
[09:30] <soundray> ddude: try this 'sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)'
[09:30] <marcel> yes, I get this message" could not send mesage:broken pipe"
[09:30] <ubuntuTEMP> how do i mount /dev/sda2 and see it in nautilus?
[09:31] <fbarc> Everytime I run "sudo fsck -t vfat /dev/sdc1" it tells me that my backup and original boot sectors do not match. Neither option 1(copy original 2 backup) nor 2 (copy backup to original) do anything to fix the problem.. It always ends in filesystem unchanged... what do I do?
[09:31] <shadowhywind> anyone know if there is a way to get limit the ammount of ram that a single person uses
[09:31] <ddude> soundray: thanks very very much for responding
[09:31] <finn> during the installation something runs which detects USB drives and creates folders in /media for them
[09:31] <nusa42> soundray: Ok - looks like my init.d/widescreen script is executed too late. How would I change the boot priority?
[09:31] <linux_kid> ddude, these apps are kernel-specific, they must be installed for each kernel.  If this is a problem, stick with one kernel and only change for major releases.
[09:31] <profoX`> any idea why sudo or gdebi-gtk would do something like that? lock up my soundcard?
[09:31] <finn> can I manually run that on a already running system to detect new external drives and have the folders and mounts created?
[09:31] <profoX`> it locked up my soundcard :/
[09:31] <hossasaur> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5982/
[09:32] <hossasaur> LiENUS: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5982/
[09:32] <profoX`> /usr/bin/sudo -H -S -p GNOME_SUDO_PASS -u root -- gdebi-gtk --non-interactive /tmp/*.deb <-- i had to kill that process
[09:32] <ddude> linux_kid: where is my old kernel?? is it removed?
[09:32] <soundray> nusa42: check the links to widescreen in '/etc/rc?.d' and rename them with lower leading numbers
[09:32] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  ok its sata...
[09:32] <hzw> Can somebody please help me with sound on my laptop?
[09:32] <linux_kid> ddude, it still should appear in GRUB
[09:32] <ddude> linux_kid, it isn;t
[09:32] <finn> it would make things a lot easier
[09:33] <padge> sigger_: I got it worked out
[09:33] <hossasaur> LiENUS: so if i change the hd to sd in menu.lst, it should work
[09:33] <hzw> It works on the live disc, and it used to work in the regular install, but now I just cannot get any sound...
[09:33] <nusa42> soundray: allright...
[09:33] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  doubt it
[09:33] <sigger_> padge: what'd you do?
[09:33] <LiENUS> hossasaur, sata is ide
[09:33] <dimeotane> anyone know of a program in ubuntu that I can use like a "notebook" for  collecting images, and text.. kind of like a digital scrapbook
[09:33] <linux_kid> ddude, ok, go in to synaptic and search "linux image" and tell me which kernel numbers are installed
[09:33] <fbarc> hzw: what 's happening, or better said what isn't happening?
[09:33] <slippyr4> how can i tell what package a given tool is in? eg. I need fsck.ntfs . where can i find out what package it'd be in?
[09:33] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  nm apparently sata uses sd in grub
[09:33] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  yeah change it from hd to sd
[09:33] <LiENUS> and try
[09:34] <padge> sigger_: As it turns out, group membership doesn't permeate until you log into the session, which means all instances of programs you run within that session, terminals, nautilus, etc.  I had to log out and log back in.
[09:34] <LJHarb> when i use apt-get source package, where is the source downloaded to?
[09:34] <hzw> fbarc: there just is no sound at all, at no point
[09:34] <hossasaur> LiENUS: be back, thanks for the help
[09:34] <linux_kid> ddude, actually, search "linux image 2.6"
[09:34] <LiENUS> heh
[09:34] <LiENUS> im out...
[09:34] <ddude> linux_kid, oke, will check
[09:34] <sigger_> padge: that sounds weird and counterintuitive, but glad it worked out
[09:35] <ddude> linux_kid, there both installed
[09:35] <yettenet> Is there a way to set my default fontset to a specific one?
[09:35] <linux_kid> ddude, what are they, like 2.6.17-11-generic or what?
[09:35] <hzw> fbarc: even though everything seems fine and my card is recognized, etc.
[09:35] <goban> i have to rinstall, how do i transfer my firefox bookmarks?
[09:35] <slippyr4> how can i tell what package a given tool is in? eg. I need fsck.ntfs . where can i find out what package it'd be in?
[09:35] <padge> sigger_: I checked it first with a real terminal.  I logged in there and it worked as expected, so I restarted X and everything was go.
[09:35] <ddude>  2.6.17-11-generic en  2.6.17-10-generic
[09:36] <hossasaur> LiENUS: ugh, it says i can't save the file because i don't have permission
[09:36] <padge> sigger_: Anyway, there's a bit of trivia for ya to help yourself of others with.  Thanks for going through it with me.  It saved the other guy all that time.
[09:36] <linux_kid> ddude, enter "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" in a terminal
[09:36] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  edit it with sudo
[09:36] <Red_Tide> I require some assistance my brother desperately wants to install ubuntu but he has run into some problems with getting x to work properly
[09:36] <LiENUS> hossasaur,  run sudo  gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:36] <fbarc> hzw:  might be disabled at the bios level.. please check it..
[09:36] <LiENUS> hossasaur, im about to leave
[09:36] <LJHarb> when i use apt-get source package, where is the source downloaded to?
[09:36] <nusa42> soundray: it's in the rc5.d directory.
[09:36] <alvarezp> CaptainMorgan, works fine here. Middle+drag down and middle+drag up does scrolling. -- Middle+drag left and middle+drag right does browser back/forward.
[09:36] <goban> i have to rinstall, how do i transfer my firefox bookmarks?
[09:36] <hossasaur> LiENUS: thanks for the help
[09:37] <Red_Tide> when x starts he gets an error message
[09:37] <HymnToLife> goban, did you make a separate /home parittion ?
[09:37] <hzw> fbarc: nobody went into the BIOS settings and it has worked...
[09:37] <linux_kid> ddude, you there yet?
[09:37] <sigger_> padge: I learned something new.  Thanks.
[09:38] <padge> sigger_: :)
[09:38] <goban> HymnToLife: not yet, but i have access to my old one
[09:38] <Red_Tide> I think he needs the ati fglrx drivers as he has an ati card but i am not entirely sure how to go about installing them as I am not an ubuntu user myself and have a nvidia card
[09:38] <Kilroy> anyone know any good wireless tutorials?
[09:38] <linux_kid> ddude, ?...?
[09:38] <linux_kid> !wifi | Kilroy
[09:38] <ubotu> Kilroy: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:39] <igor47> does anyone know how to send a file to a windows box via infrared?  the windows system and the ubuntu system discover one another, i'm just not sure what command to run to send a file...
[09:39] <Kilroy> !thx
[09:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:39] <LJHarb> anyone? where would the source directory be found when downloading source with apt-get?
[09:39] <linux_kid> Welcome Kilroy
[09:39] <slippyr4> is there a way to install a "minimal" gnome? rather the the several hundred packages ubuntu-desktop wants to install?
[09:39] <linux_kid> slippyr4, xubuntu-desktop
[09:40] <cherva> hi can someone tell me a torrent program witch i can minimize to the tray
[09:40] <slippyr4> linux-kid - that's xfce though isn't it?
[09:40] <Red_Tide> can someoe direct me to an ati-fglrx guide for ubyuntu?
[09:40] <LjL> slippyr4: you could probablt install the "gnome" package
[09:40] <slippyr4> and it's still a bucketload of packages
[09:40] <linux_kid> cherva, wine utorrent
[09:40] <IVBela> do someone know a program that i can use to monitor my ubuntu from winxp on a lan, in real time?
[09:40] <HymnToLife> cherva, ktorrent... in KDE :p
[09:40] <lnxmomo> hi
[09:40] <IVBela> i mean like cpu and mem usage, network, etc
[09:40] <linux_kid> slippyr4, xfce is really gnome pulled down
[09:41] <lnxmomo> did anyone ever have a problem wid kde not installing themes?
[09:41] <cherva> Gnome pls not KDE
[09:41] <soundray> nusa42: do you know what to do?
[09:41] <HymnToLife> IVBela, ssh :)
[09:41] <lnxmomo> mine does not want to install any
[09:41] <igor47> IVBela: look into snmp.  i'm not sure how to do it, but its a place to start...
[09:41] <LjL> slippyr4: actually, make it "gnome-desktop-environment", since "gnome" is rather bigger
[09:41] <linux_kid> !seen ddude
[09:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen ddude - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:41] <LjL> slippyr4: "gnome-core" is smaller even
[09:41] <IVBela> i thought there might be a tool for that
[09:41] <bauer77> Red_Tide: what are you trying to do?
[09:41] <bluefox83> i seem to be having trouble with mysql not allowing local programs to connect and access the database...anyone know how to solve that?
[09:41] <LjL> Xfce doesn't have anything to do with GNOME apart from being based on GTK, afaik
[09:42] <cherva> i tried with azereus but it minimizes to nowhere and i have to kill the process
[09:42] <linux_kid> LjL, they look strikingly similar
[09:42] <Red_Tide> install ati fglrx drivers so x will work on my bro's system
[09:42] <HymnToLife> bluefox83, not without more info, what does mysql say when you try toconnect ?
[09:42] <LjL> linux_kid: that does not *make* them similar
[09:42] <linux_kid> LjL, I see some copying going on ...
[09:42] <hzw> fbarc: how do I check whether the correct driver is loaded for my soundcard?
[09:43] <bluefox83> HymnToLife, it seems to always say that it's trying to connect with the password "YES" which isn't true...
[09:43] <nusa42>  soundray: tried to alter the Sxx number from S99 to S13 - didn't do the job however... should it be moved to lower RCx.d level?
[09:43] <marcel> how to you set up Evolution?
[09:43] <LjL> linux_kid: copying of looks and interface style is one thing, sharing of libraries and copying of code is quite another thing. i can make my KDE look very much like a default GNOME, if i wanted to
[09:43] <soundray> nusa42: no, probably not
[09:43] <HymnToLife> bluefox83, then I'd guss the problem come from the program that tries to connect to mysql
[09:43] <babo> what's the php/mysql package called again ?
[09:43] <mc44> LjL: and you should, cos its better
[09:43] <HymnToLife> not mysql itself
[09:43] <nusa42> soundray: it's being loaded after gdm... is that a problem?
[09:44] <HymnToLife> !php5-mysql
[09:44] <ubotu> php5-mysql: MySQL module for php5. In component main, is optional. Version 5.1.6-1ubuntu2.1 (edgy), package size 22 kB, installed size 108 kB
[09:44] <bluefox83> HymnToLife, i've had the same exact problem with two totally different programs..
[09:44] <pbureau> mc44, "cos its better" is a windows saying
[09:44] <linux_kid> LjL, good point, slippyr4 sounded like he wanted a GNOME GUI, not GNOME coding
[09:44] <soundray> nusa42: yes! :)
[09:44] <mc44> pbureau: yes, Im just kidding :)
[09:44] <linux_kid> !seen ddude
[09:44] <nusa42> heh - that figures.
[09:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen ddude - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:44] <LJHarb> so does /anyone/ know how to recompile mysql on dapper?
[09:44] <slippyr4> technically i need a gtk and X
[09:45] <slippyr4> right now i have console
[09:45] <LjL> linux_kid, slippyr4 just asked how he could get GNOME without all the 600megs of stuff that come with the "ubuntu-desktop" package
[09:45] <slippyr4> and i want minimal crap
[09:45] <yettenet> ubotu default charset
[09:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about default charset - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:45] <linux_kid> LjL, "k"onversation over
[09:45] <ddude> linux_kid,sounray: guys, i checked my grub, it's all there, try to boot them all and i get Starting /opt/cisco-vpnclient/bin/vpnclient: module directory /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/CiscoVPN not found.
[09:45] <pbureau> mc44,  i know :)
[09:46] <LjL> slippyr4: that's different then, just install a login manager such as XDM (or GDM, but that will get GNOME libraries installed), and then go your way happily
[09:46] <HymnToLife> ddude, seems you need a kernel module that isn't there
[09:46] <linux_kid> ddude, odd, is the 2.6.17-10-generic kernel in GRUB?
[09:46] <soundray> ddude: you need to reinstall the CiscoVPN modules, whereever you got them from in the first place
[09:46] <bluefox83> HymnToLife, would a special mysql package be needed for amarok or blootbot to use it?
[09:46] <gu014_> i am trying to recover an ntfs windows drive using an ubuntu 6.10 live cd. i have edited the /etc/fstab to read '/dev/cciss/c0d0  /media/windows ntfs  ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000  0 0' when i do a mount -a it says 'mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock'  any suggestions?
[09:46] <rbs-tito> Does anyone know if the rt61 drivers are going to be packaged with Feisty?
[09:47] <linux_kid> !ntfs | gu014_
[09:47] <fbarc> Everytime I run "sudo fsck -t vfat /dev/sdc1" it tells me that my backup and original boot sectors do not match. Neither option 1(copy original 2 backup) nor 2 (copy backup to original) do anything to fix the problem.. It always ends in filesystem unchanged... what do I do?
[09:47] <ubotu> gu014_: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:47] <karly> hey royel u still here?
[09:47] <linux_kid> !ntfs-3g | gu014_
[09:47] <ubotu> gu014_: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution.

[09:47] <HymnToLife> bluefox83, not that I know of, it's more likely a configuration problem
[09:47] <fbarc> hzw: Tyr going to SYSTEM:ADMINISTRATION:DEVICE MANAGER and find your sound device..
[09:47] <denni> anyone got some experience on running gdesklets here?
[09:48] <ddude> linux_kid, it is in grub...i didn;t looked well, i try booting every kernel in grub and try to start vpnclient like 'sudo /etc/init.d/vpnclient_init start'
[09:48] <slippyr4> how can i remove the reference to the cd from my repositories list so i no longer need the cd, it just downloads everything
[09:48] <yettenet> How can I change the default charset on my system?
[09:48] <ddude> linux_kid, but i don't get it started
[09:48] <linux_kid> ddude, looks like it needs to be reinstalled
[09:48] <bluefox83> HymnToLife, what sort of configuration problem? is there someplace where i can tell it to allow local access or something?
[09:48] <dacks> what is the difference between ntfsutils and this new ntfs-3g
[09:48] <linux_kid> slippyr4, dapper or edgy
[09:48] <karly> i just installed ubuntu and the screen is really messed up the left half is fine but the middle and right are like shifted and copied multiple times
[09:48] <rbs-tito> slippyr4: system, administration, software sources. Uncheck the CD box
[09:48] <fbarc> hzw: see what it says for device type and do a search on google for <device name> UBUNTU
[09:48] <karly> ne1 know what to do
[09:49] <soundray> slippyr4: find the 'deb cdrom' line and comment it out with a # at the beginning
[09:49] <linux_kid> dacks, ntfs-3g is just a different approach
[09:49] <denni> im wondering if there is anyway to start gdesklets and get it to hide the desklets from gnome? i dont want to see my desklets when im tabbing and such
[09:49] <slippyr4> only got command line, need to  edit file. what file!?
[09:49] <_JECKEL_> Question...what would be involved in putting ubuntu onto an external hard drive
[09:49] <_JECKEL_> ?
[09:49] <dacks> linux_kid, did they fix the <2gb file size bug?
[09:49] <dacks> >2gb sorry
[09:50] <babo> guys, I've used the ubuntu repos to install lamp. But php doesn't have mysql installed ...
[09:50] <nusa42> soundray: should I alter all linked rcx.d scripts? (rc2, 3 and 5)
[09:50] <nevron> i changed my sound card but ubuntu still uses the soundcard that i have disabled what can i do to fix this
[09:50] <_JECKEL_> like...if I wanna put ubuntu on an external hard drive so I don't have to partition my laptop drive?
[09:50] <babo> I have php5-mysql installed ...
[09:50] <linux_kid> dacks, im not sure, but all my iso's are under 2gb, so i dont care
[09:50] <slippyr4> which file defines repositories?
[09:50] <rbs-tito> babo, just get the php apache modules from the repositories
[09:50] <VrilutZa> need help this it's a my probleme
[09:50] <VrilutZa> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5985/
[09:50] <soundray> nusa42: I
[09:50] <HymnToLife> bluefox83, try to connect to it from the command line
[09:50] <HymnToLife> and see if that works
[09:50] <ddude> soundray,linux_kid yeah..oke, i will install it again, on my 3 machines i have, no kidding, i worked almost flawless since november last year, i deleted every windows crap i had. But i think this is weird.
[09:50] <soundray> nusa42: I'm not sure, this is dirty-hack territory
[09:51] <linux_kid> slippyr4, its called sources.list, but not sure where its located
[09:51] <Smyds> Hello
[09:51] <VrilutZa> make[2] : *** [scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/checklist.o]  Error 1
[09:51] <VrilutZa> make[1] : *** [menuconfig]  Error 2
[09:51] <VrilutZa> make: *** [menuconfig]  Error 2
[09:51] <Smyds> I have got a HP ScanJet 4600, and it is not supported by sane
[09:51] <_JECKEL_> nobody have an idea?
[09:51] <soundray> ddude: no, this is natural. If you install a new kernel, it won't have the extra modules that you got for the old one.
[09:51] <Smyds> What can I do ?
[09:51] <slippyr4> . /etc/apt/sources/list, thanks
[09:52] <ddude> soundray, but i have my old kernel, and there it won't work either, so...
[09:52] <bluefox83> HymnToLife, never had trouble connecting via command line
[09:52] <bwilson> How do I change the default web browser so it is Firefox and not stupid Konqueror
[09:52] <soundray> ddude: you've somehow managed to delete parts of your old kernel installation.
[09:52] <babo> rbs-tito, yes, I did that already ...
[09:52] <gu014_> how can i get the ntfs-3g without an internet connection?
[09:52] <ddude> soundray, i only clicked update
[09:52] <linux_kid> bwilson, in ff, edit, prefs, set firefox default
[09:52] <st3> hi everybody. please don't use ubuntu feisty kernel until fixed if you want to use bcm43xx driver, thank you
[09:52] <rbs-tito> babo, did you try restarting apache?
[09:52] <HymnToLife> bluefox83, then the problem doesn't come from your mysql ;)
[09:52] <linux_kid> ddude, thats all it takes
[09:53] <ddude> soundray, and its happened on my 2 laptops and main machine
[09:53] <bluefox83> HymnToLife, whats the stardard connection port when connecting to mysql @ localhost?
[09:53] <Smyds> I can't use my scanner !!
[09:53] <nusa42> soundray: heh - well altering the rc5.d only, didn't quite do it - the BIOS hack is applied, but X server hasn't not recognized it - If I shutdown X and start it again - then it works... so the script must be executed too late.
[09:53] <babo> rbs-tito, yeah, the restart did it :-)
[09:53] <f_> ciao
[09:53] <babo> thanksk
[09:54] <nusa42> (arghh.. damn HD check!)
[09:54] <linux_kid> HELP! MPlayer won't play embedded firefox videos, only sound!?
[09:54] <ddude> linux_kid, i would have never thought this in my life...once i compiled a kernel myself, just for fun, and my old kernel were still intact
[09:54] <f_> qualcuno mi da una dritta su una wireless che non va??
[09:54] <st3> f_, i just said
[09:54] <st3> please don't use ubuntu feisty kernel until fixed if you want to use bcm43xx driver, thank you
[09:54] <rbs-tito> linux_kid: I got that, try getting gstreamer & al plugins instead
[09:54] <bluefox83> linux_kid, mess with your video output settings in mplayer
[09:54] <st3> just in case you have bcm43xx
[09:54] <karly> hey, i just installed ubuntu and my monitors display is al messed up, ne1 have any ideas on what i should do. the left side is fine but the middle and right is all fuzzy and shifted
[09:54] <linux_kid> rbs-tito, bluefox83 thanks, ill try
[09:55] <nevron> can you tell me how i can assign a different soundcard for ubuntu to use by default
[09:55] <linux_kid> ddude, thats cause you compiled it, some wifi drivers do the same thing
[09:55] <rbs-tito> nevron: You have two present?
[09:56] <SeamusLP> http://www.digg.com/videos/educational/Rat_with_spinal_cord_injury_cured_with_embryonic_stem_cells
[09:57] <nusa42> soundray: Hmm .. altering all entries didn't work either... any other ideas?
[09:57] <rbs-tito> SeamusLP: Tried an update?
[09:57] <wasabi__> how do i change user access level for programs? say like wine
[09:57] <soundray> nusa42: perhaps there is a way to call the script from /etc/init.d/gdm (dirty, dirty hack!)
[09:57] <SeamusLP> rbs-tito: what now?
[09:58] <rbs-tito> SeamusLP: It was a joke, to fix your deformed rat problem
[09:58] <_JECKEL_> ...guess nobody knows...
[09:58] <marcko> Hello. I'm having problems with my internet connection. It's not always  but sometimes, after a few minutes of inactivity, the system gets disconnected. I'm using knetworkmanager to connect to the net
[09:58] <soundray> nusa42: I'm off now, hope you find a way...
[09:58] <UltimateX> Yay Ubuntu
[09:58] <UltimateX> its awesome
[09:58] <karly> lol jeckel same for me =/
[09:58] <linux_kid> bluefox83, which plugin should i use, vlc or totem?
[09:59] <nusa42> soundray: Thank you soo much for the help!!
[09:59] <nevron> rbs-tito:in gnome under sound preferences in the sound tab the default sound card reads mpu-401 UART i switch it to SBLVE! 24-BIT external but it turns back to the uart
[09:59] <mwe> wasabi_: anyone should be able to run wine
[09:59] <_JECKEL_> not the first time this happened
[09:59] <Lynoure> _JECKEL_: I have heard it is possible, googled for it?
[09:59] <marcko> Is there another way to connect to internet instead of knetworkmanager
[09:59] <rbs-tito> wasabi__: does it matter? If they don't run as root they can't do anything with them anyway. Othe r than that you could assign each user to a specific group
[09:59] <eontasticness> hey all
[09:59] <erUSUL> wasabi__: create a group, say wine, and chgrp the wine exec to that group then make it only exec by members of the group. Add to the group the users you want
[09:59] <SeamusLP> rbs-tito: don't be an ass, digg me :P
[09:59] <_JECKEL_> yes I have
[09:59] <eontasticness> I need a Backup Software that will control a tape drive that is TARDPROOF for ubuntu
[09:59] <bluefox83> linux_kid, if you're watching stuff in your browser, mplayer or vlc would be my suggestions...
[09:59] <eontasticness> preferably one available from apt
[10:00] <wasabi__> hmm thanks guys i will try that
[10:00] <linux_kid> bluefox83, ok
[10:00] <rbs-tito> SeamusLP: Will do, and the word is 'arse'
[10:00] <mwe> !wifi | marcko
[10:00] <ubotu> marcko: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:00] <bluefox83> eontasticness, we generally don't suggest software not in apt
[10:00] <eontasticness> !backup
[10:00] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[10:00] <SeamusLP> rbs-tito: are you british?
[10:00] <wasabi__> actually, could i create a launcher that runs wine @ su level?
[10:00] <Lynoure> eontasticness: I have no idea what tardproof is but amanda is stable and well documented
[10:00] <marcko> I'm not using wifi
[10:00] <rbs-tito> SeamusLP: How did you guess? :P
[10:01] <nevron> rbs-tito:in gnome under sound preferences in the sound tab the default sound card reads mpu-401 UART i switch it to SBLVE! 24-BIT external but it turns back to the uart
[10:01] <eontasticness> Lynoure: ive used amanda forever but this is something i have a windows user going out to set up, because we are in a bind
[10:01] <marcko> I'm not using wifi, mwe
[10:01] <bluefox83> wasabi_, why would you want to run wine with super user privledges?
[10:01] <ddude> soundray,linux_kid, yeah well, please tell me your point of view: i update my system..cisco doesn't work...at all, on none of the kernels..so why is there a kernel update in the updates from ubuntu? and if it is, it should warn you for these problems as well? what is happened with my old kernel configuration, why does it CiscoVPN not found, while it was installed perfectly under 2.6.17-10-generic. please, i just want to understand why this can happen
[10:01] <mwe> wasabi_: make it run kdesu wine. why, though?
[10:01] <eontasticness> Lynoure: and i need something that an Ubuntu user can install
[10:01] <eontasticness> Lynoure: ie a linux relative noob
[10:01] <_JECKEL_> lol
[10:01] <wasabi__> mwe, because i try to run utorrent at normal level and settings won't save
[10:01] <SeamusLP> rbs-tito: it was the outrageous accent!
[10:02] <rbs-tito> nevron: Why won't it do to have multiple cards managed at once? Both of mine work simultaneously
[10:02] <chump> hi
[10:02] <mwe> marcko: well configure your interface. /etc/network/interfaces. see man interfaces and/or ask further questions
[10:02] <linux_kid> ddude, this is a normal problem, you won't be warned, just be aware
[10:02] <Lynoure> eontasticness: I'd still say amanda they can, but some non-newbie might have to send them the configuration files, if they are non-daring
[10:02] <rbs-tito> SeamusLP: Awful weather lately, care for a crumpet?
[10:02] <mwe> wasabi__: settings?
[10:02] <chump> can someone help me get my nvidia driver working on ubuntu 6.10 please ?
[10:02] <marcko> ok mwe, thank you
[10:02] <erUSUL> ubotu tell chump about nvidia | chump see priv msg from ubotu
[10:03] <wasabi__> like utorrent specific settings, like saving torrent files in the cache, connection settings
[10:03] <Sensae> I've got Beryl running on the Radeon drivers, but since I installed the Radeon drivers X seems to ignore resolutions set in xorg.conf. Can someone help?
[10:03] <SeamusLP> rbs-tito: only if a cup of earl grey is involved
[10:03] <eontasticness> Lynoure: are there any amanda guis in the repos?
[10:03] <mwe> wasabi__: did you run sudo wine at some point or something?
[10:03] <nevron> rbs-tito how can a bios disabled onboard card work?
[10:04] <mwe> wasabi__: if so the perms of .wine could be skewed
[10:04] <rbs-tito> rbs-tito: I'm more partial to a Darjeeling at this hour.
[10:04] <doofy2> what do you suggest to import video from a dv cam over firewire... dvgrab splits the files up in to 1gb pieces which is quite annoying
[10:04] <rbs-tito> *SeamusLP: I'm more partial to a Darjeeling at this hour.
[10:04] <wasabi__> mwe, oh hmm yea i usually run sudo wine
[10:04] <dc2447> Right - new Ubuntu webserver install - some php files work - some download - both have the same permissions, ownership and use the same tags - any ideas?
[10:04] <hzw> fbarc: the sound is on in the bios
[10:04] <mwe> wasabi__: dont't ;)
[10:04] <rbs-tito> nevron: If you need both leave it enabled, I've got a machine with two cards working at once
[10:04] <Lynoure> eontasticness: guis? No idea. Automatically running backup software rarely needs a gui
[10:04] <wasabi__> mwe, hah okay. i will try it again
[10:04] <dooglus> mwe: if you don't run 'sudo wine', how is the malware going to install itself properly?
[10:05] <mwe> wasabi__: as normal user chown -R $(whoami) ~/.wine
[10:05] <fbarc> hzw: did you find the device in the device manager under administration?
[10:05] <hzw> I have the following when I do aplay -l:  http://pastebin.com/881654
[10:05] <Lynoure> eontasticness: But if you are a firm believer in guis, maybe bacula
[10:05] <wasabi__> thanks
[10:05] <nevron> ok i understand but i want to use the SBLIVE! as my default device somehow ubuntu doesnt let me set it as default
[10:05] <eontasticness> Lynoure: i know it doesnt for me, but this is a tard setting it up
[10:05] <ddude> linux_kid, yeah. oke. but i think 'updating' a kernel isn't the same as deleting a module cisco from my old kernel config.
[10:05] <mwe> dooglus: heh
[10:05] <hzw> Also the following in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base:  http://pastebin.com/881654
[10:06] <mwe> wasabi__: actually chown -R $(whoami).$(whoami) ~/.wine
[10:06] <rbs-tito> ddude: When you update the kernel all the modules you inseted manually are no longer any good. The deb modules should reinstal themselves thouh
[10:06] <hzw> fbarc: excuse me the aplay -l is here:  http://pastebin.com/881653
[10:06] <linux_kid> ddude, its NORMAL, its OK, don't worry about it. have a soda and/or pop. relax
[10:06] <hzw> fbarc: yes the device is in the device manager...
[10:06] <Sensae> I've got Beryl running on the Radeon drivers, but since I installed the Radeon drivers X seems to ignore resolutions set in xorg.conf. Can someone help?
[10:06] <fbarc> hzw: I just lost power.. I'm on UPS right now.. I dunno how how long I'm gonna last
[10:06] <qos_> hey guys ... i ve got problems with my java environment. it runs most java apps, but some apps have problems ... mostly problems with resizing the gui (on windows there is no problem with this) and selecting files ... does somebody know these problems?
[10:06] <rbs-tito> fbarc: QUICK! BACKUP!
[10:06] <Lynoure> eontasticness: I'd then send them a script that configures it instead of looking for a gui
[10:07] <hzw> fbarc: wow in what country us that?
[10:07] <linux_kid> fbarc BACKUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[10:07] <LjL> !away > pic|away    (pic|away, see the private message from Ubotu)
[10:07] <linux_kid> NOW
[10:07] <SilentM> Small problem. I recently got a second monitor, and I've set it up using this: http://www.ublug.org/ubuntu/twinview/twinview-howto-breezy.html tutorial.
[10:07] <linxeh> dacks:
[10:07] <SilentM> Only, the screens are set up the wrong way.
[10:07] <LjL> ... backup? for a power failure?
[10:07] <wasabi__> mwe, awesome! thank you
[10:07] <Smyds> arrrrgh !! http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/hp-scanjet-4600.html
[10:07] <Smyds> What can I do ?
[10:07] <mwe> wasabi__: I take it it's working now? ;)
[10:07] <SilentM> (It thinks the right screen is to the left of the left screen)
[10:08] <eetfunk> I can't seem to get this crontab line working.  I want to run the script every 5 minutes, what's wrong?:  */5 * * * * /etc/refresh_iptables_rules.py
[10:08] <wasabi__> mwe, yep i don't need to run with sudo anymore
[10:08] <mwe> wasabi__: good ;)
[10:08] <Red_Tide> what driver should be used for an ati x700se because the one ubuntu seems to load fails
[10:08] <rbs-tito> SilentM: Can't you just wap them around? :0
[10:08] <Ixan> Hey, is there any way to turn off the automount disks or the fsck on disks during the boot from the installation disk?
[10:08] <Sensae> SilentM: Switch the screens around. :p
[10:08] <dooglus> eetfunk: is it executable?  and does it begin with a #! line?
[10:08] <fbarc> rbs-tito: linux_kid: relax guys I have nothing open except xchat right now..
[10:08] <SilentM> Meh
[10:08] <ddude> rbs-tito,linux_kid oke, thanks again for your answers, i just wanted to understand, i will install it again and have a soda i guess..don't get me wrong though i really appreciate your support, i just wanted to understand why this is so i wined a bit about it. maybe it is because i give up smoking a few days ago ;) anyway laterrz
[10:08] <eetfunk> dooglus: yes and yes
[10:08] <jpc> 1075 users (: .
[10:08] <SilentM> They're place awkwardly.
[10:09] <SilentM> If I did that I'd be staring to my left constantly.
[10:09] <SilentM> == Pain
[10:09] <Sensae> 1077
[10:09] <fbarc> hzw: sometimes power is unpredictable here in Mexico..
[10:09] <dooglus> eetfunk: what if you run "sudo /etc/refresh_uiptables_rules.py" ?
[10:09] <jpc> Sensae, (: .
[10:09] <dooglus> (spelt right)
[10:09] <linux_kid> ddude, GREAT JOB ON QUITTING, keep it up!!!
[10:09] <wasabi__> mwe, btw what's a lite bt client native to linux that has a low memory footprint? i've tried transmission but i find that it's banned on some tracker
[10:09] <eetfunk> dooglus: it works fine
[10:09] <fbarc> hzw:  did you do a search on google with your device name?
[10:09] <LjL> linux_kid?!
[10:09] <dooglus> eetfunk: where are you putting that line?
[10:09] <Sensae> So anyone know anything about the radeon drivers + xorg.conf?
[10:09] <linux_kid> ddude, the quiting being about the smoking
[10:09] <rbs-tito> fbarc: You should talk to nlindblad, he has backups every 5 minutes in different towns
[10:10] <mwe> wasabi__: bittorrent I think. I don't use it much, though
