[03:59] <pianoboy3333> Warbo: ok, what did that do?
[03:59] <Matthewv> kbrooks, what happens if someone runs easyubuntu on kubuntu?
[03:59] <kbrooks> Matthewv: so there is a chance that a person will redistribute easyubuntu with malicious code in it
[03:59] <Warbo> pianoboy3333: Did anything come up?
[03:59] <pianoboy3333> Warbo: oh, that was a grep command, no it didn't return anythin
[03:59] <myworld122> hi guys... i was just wondering do we need antivirus n firewall for ubuntu?
[03:59] <BenPA> can anyone here help me with getting an update to clamav from version 0.78.1 to 0.88.2 ... I tried the help but don't understand it ... The ClamAV forum sent me here
[04:00] <Warbo> pianoboy3333: Hmmm. How about "dpkg -l | grep iU"
[04:00] <pianoboy3333> Warbo: yes
[04:00] <meherenOS-X> pianoboy3333, beyond me :P
[04:00] <gavagai> myworld122, antivirus, no
[04:00] <Warbo> pianoboy3333: What came up?
[04:00] <pianoboy3333> Warbo: python-subversion
[04:00] <pianoboy3333> ah, ok
[04:00] <pianoboy3333> I think I'll be ok once I remove that
[04:00] <myworld122> gavagai: where can i get a decent firewall?
[04:00] <rickard> I'm having some problems with apache2 and dapper... The daemons don't seem to start... apache seems to work fine, but not apache2.... any suggestions?
[04:00] <Matthewv> kbrooks, oh i see.... but running it the current way does exactly the same, doesn't it... running 'sudo python easyubuntu.py' allows any malicious code to be executed anyway
[04:01] <Warbo> pianoboy3333: That is the broken one the (if it has "iU" as it's status (normally it is "ii"))
[04:01] <echostorm> bah time to boot up partition magic cya later guys thanx for the advice
[04:01] <gavagai> myworld122, i just switched from another linux to ubuntu so i'm not sure what people here recommend, but for a GUI interface i think firestarter is good
[04:01] <gavagai> myworld122, is your ubuntu system behind a router/
[04:02] <myworld122> gavagai: i'm behind a NAT enabled router
[04:02] <gavagai> then i would not bother if this is just your home setup
[04:02] <Warbo> pianoboy3333: Now I need to remove language-pack-de (which I installed in order to break, so I could do "dpkg -l | grep pack-de" and see what status broken packages are given) :)
[04:02] <myworld122> yep...home setup
[04:02] <myworld122> thanks!
[04:02] <gavagai> no firewall then
[04:02] <gavagai> :)
[04:02] <joachim-n> xchat gnome is so cool :)
[04:03] <joachim-n> but the upgrade didn't install it for me to replace cruddy old xchat
[04:03] <Warbo> joachim-n: It crashes for me :(
[04:03] <gavagai> pffft, graphical irc.  heh
[04:03] <kbrooks> Matthewv: well, won't, if the "sudo" is removed, the malicious code only "infect" your homre direcctory and all files and directories owned by you
[04:03] <h3sp4wn> myworld122: If your router is on http://toh.openwrt.org - as supported I would help you install that onto it (linux for routers)
[04:03] <joachim-n> not just graphical -- NICE graphical
[04:03] <sephran> how can I share the mounted HD partitions from windows in ubuntu live over the network?
[04:03] <joachim-n> ie, doesn't quit on ctrl-A
[04:03] <Matthewv> joachim-n, I prefer plain xchat or irssi :)
[04:04] <joachim-n> plain xcht is a usbility nightmare
[04:04] <b14ck> i can't see hidden files from windoze on my dvd
[04:04] <gavagai> irssi is my fave
[04:04] <b14ck> any advice?
[04:04] <Frogzoo> Matthewv: if you're running unauthenticated code as superuser, well, you get what you ask for - that's what pgp & package signing is for
[04:04] <sparkleytone> irssi proxy > *
[04:05] <chicken-man> gavagai, mmmm irssi :-P I'm using it now
[04:05] <meherenOS-X> what exactly does pearPc do?
[04:05] <Matthewv> kbrooks, but the instructions on the easyubuntu website say to run 'sudo python easyubuntu.py' and 99% of users will just run that, without inspecting the code first or whatever else you wan't them to do :)
[04:05] <sparkleytone> meherenOS-X: what are you trying to do?
[04:05] <Frogzoo> Matthewv: do easyubuntu publish the md5 for the code?
[04:05] <Matthewv> Frogzoo, thanks, but maybe kbrooks will find that more useful
[04:05] <juliux> moin
[04:06] <meherenOS-X> sparkleytone, that doesn't answer my question but oh well i want to run itunes/quicktime
[04:06] <Woozle> I installed some software via Synaptic.  How do I find out where that software has been installed to?
[04:06] <joachim-n> it's a real shame the gksudo bug with themes hasnt been fixed
[04:06] <BenPA> can anyone here help me with getting an update to clamav from version 0.78.1 to 0.88.2 ... I tried the help but don't understand it ... The ClamAV forum sent me here
[04:06] <kbrooks> Frogzoo: not yet
[04:06] <kbrooks> Frogzoo: maybe that could be useful
[04:06] <meherenOS-X> on my ubuntu box it's a i686 P 4 2.16 gighz
[04:06] <juliux> ich habe hier ein sehr interessantes problem, ich kann alle seiten pingen aber wenn ich die gleiche seite versuche mit firefox zu ffnen bekomme ich keinen timeout
[04:06] <gavagai> chicken-man, do you use any cool scripts for irssi?  i have nickcolor and trackbar, those are good
[04:06] <sparkleytone> meherenOS-X: on what?  linux?  on ppc or intel hw?
[04:06] <kbrooks> Frogzoo: but thats not an indicator of malicious code
[04:06] <meherenOS-X> dell inspirion 8200
[04:06] <chicken-man> My ubuntu 6.06 does not boot, I get's stuck at mounting root filesystem...
[04:06] <Frogzoo> kbrooks: well call me paranoid, but without an md5 sum or a pgp signature, I won't run anything will root privs
[04:06] <meherenOS-X> Im running ubuntu
[04:07] <aalya_> Someone use Wine for playing Steam (counter-strike) ? ty
[04:07] <xandhy> hi, i'm looking for help with pdf printing in dapper because i can't find in in printing configuration in gnome
[04:07] <juliux> sorry wrong channel
[04:07] <kbrooks> Frogzoo: sorry, s/indicator/definitive \1/
[04:07] <Frogzoo> !tell aalya_ about appdb
[04:07] <chicken-man> gavagai, Nope, I just install it :-)
[04:07] <Warbo> chicken-man: Where is it installed? (what kind of device)
[04:07] <sephran> does anyone know? how can I share the mounted HD partitions from windows in ubuntu live over the network?
[04:07] <meherenOS-X> i don't have winblows
[04:07] <Mysta> hey guys, how do I uninstall software installed w/ easyubuntu specifically Java????
[04:07] <chicken-man> Warbo, it's not installed
[04:07] <gavagai> chicken-man, irssi has an APT like system for installing scripts, it is cool.
[04:07] <Warbo> Mysta: Use Synaptic
[04:07] <b14ck> how can i access files hidden with windows. i have enabled the show hidden files from ubuntu but i still can't see them
[04:08] <kbrooks> Mysta: you can't.
[04:08] <chicken-man> Warbo, I'm talking about when you first run the disk
[04:08] <sparkleytone> only way i know is codeweavers meherenOS-X
[04:08] <Warbo> chicken-man: The LiveCD won't boot?
[04:08] <chicken-man> Warbo, Indeed
[04:08] <sparkleytone> i just don't run generic hw ;)
[04:08] <kbrooks> Mysta: from within easyubuntu, you cannot uninstall software
[04:08] <pianoboy3333> Anyone program python and use the curses module? I can't seem to find the function that will resize a window.
[04:08] <meherenOS-X> sparkleytone, I want to do this the (hard) free way
[04:08] <Warbo> chicken-man: OK, well I am not very familiar with the LiveCD's boot process sorry
[04:08] <kbrooks> pianoboy3333: hang on
[04:08] <chicken-man> Warbo, hehe :-P
[04:08] <pianoboy3333> kbrooks: ok
[04:08] <meherenOS-X> but just outa curiosity what does pearPc do?
[04:09] <Mysta> kbrooks: im aware, the java that it installed doesnt work w/ an application i want to use, so i want to get rid of it
[04:09] <Frogzoo> meherenOS-X: google would know...
[04:09] <sparkleytone> it emulates x86 for ppc macs
[04:09] <meherenOS-X> Frogzoo, lol ok
[04:09] <chicken-man> I have to say 6.06 is the worst version so far, thats why I'm using Debian at the moment
[04:09] <sparkleytone> meherenOS-X: ^
[04:09] <Warbo> meherenOS-X: PearPC emulates a PowerPC system (it makes a computer built out of software)
[04:09] <sparkleytone> oh...
[04:09] <sparkleytone> the other way around
[04:09] <bobz> any one any idea , I have nofirewall or anything i can connect to ssh using <IP_ADDRESS> but not my ip any ideas?
[04:10] <Matthewv> anyone know what to do when fsck produces errors on the root hard drive every other week... my hdd gets mounted read only, and then a restart will result in having to run a manual fsck
[04:10] <BenPA> :( ... can someone here please help me with getting an update to clamav from version 0.78.1 to 0.88.2 ... I tried the help but don't understand it ... The ClamAV forum sent me here
[04:10] <b14ck> how can i access files hidden with windows. i have enabled the show hidden files from ubuntu but i still can't see them
[04:10] <watson540> heh, he says no firewall or anything..get em boys :)
[04:10] <Frogzoo> bobz: you need to run an sshd
[04:10] <Matthewv> BenPA, you running clamav from the ubuntu repositories, or?
[04:10] <BenPA> yes
[04:10] <Frogzoo> bobz: & then PLEASE filter access to the port
[04:10] <lukaswayne9> When i run $ locale, my it complains about:   locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory        What can I do to fix this?
[04:11] <Warbo> b14ck: Ubuntu uses a different hiding system from Windows, so files hidden in windows should be visible in Ubuntu normally (without turning on "show hidden files")
[04:11] <meherenOS-X> Warbo, in other words it allows you to run PPC OSes and software on a i386 machine?
[04:11] <idoru_> Matthewv: that usually means your harddrive is dying
[04:11] <b14ck> Warbo:  well i can't see them eyther way. not even in knoppix
[04:11] <Matthewv> BenPA, are you running ubuntu 5.10 or ubuntu 6.06?
[04:11] <meherenOS-X> Warbo, it says it runs at about 1/500 on there site!?
[04:11] <Matthewv> idoru_, that'd be a worry, its only a year old
[04:11] <BenPA> 6.06
[04:11] <kbrooks> pianoboy3333: i cant find anything
[04:11] <pianoboy3333> I know...
[04:12] <Warbo> meherenOS-X: Yes, but unlike Qemu which only emulates a PowerPC (among others) system, PearPC lets you run MacOSX (OSX needs certain authentication things)
[04:12] <kbrooks> pianoboy3333: but wait
[04:12] <pianoboy3333> kbrooks: it's weird
[04:12] <Frogzoo> Matthewv: disks can die within 3 weeks of purchase - should be a warranty job, so no problem
[04:12] <kbrooks> pianoboy3333: i'll google
[04:12] <meherenOS-X> warbo, that seems really slow
[04:12] <meherenOS-X> oic
[04:12] <Kamping_Kaiser> i want to ask why a package was removed from ubuntu, where would i look for that info?
[04:12] <joeybobby> this is great
[04:12] <basti> hallo all
[04:12] <Matthewv> BenPA, in that case, running 'sudo apt-get upgrade' should update that package and every other package :)
[04:12] <meherenOS-X> but then if i had a 2 ghz proccessor it would only run at 4mhz...?
[04:12] <Matthewv> Frogzoo, oh help :(
[04:12] <Frogzoo> Matthewv: you should review /var/log/messages & look for hdd timeouts
[04:12] <Matthewv> ok... I'll have a look
[04:13] <Warbo> meherenOS-X: You cannot emulate a foreign computer architecture very well if that architecture is powerful. PowerPC chips are far more powerful than PC chips, so it is no suprise that it runs so slowly
[04:13] <meherenOS-X> ah
[04:13] <meherenOS-X> but then it wouldn't really be usably would it?
[04:13] <meherenOS-X> unless you have a super-computer?
[04:13] <BenPA> Matthewv ... when I run upgrade then rerun freshclam I get a message to upgrade from clamav 0.87.1 to 0.88.2
[04:13] <Warbo> meherenOS-X: I cannot emulate a 14MHz Amiga using E-UAE (even with all of it's fancy JIT compilers) using my 2400+ AMD
[04:14] <juliux> someone here from uk? i have a problem with at adsl router from BT
[04:14] <Frogzoo> meherenOS-X: but for testing & dev't sometimes emulation is all you need
[04:14] <Warbo> juliux: If it is a BT Voyager with USB only then it will not work
[04:14] <rpedro> Kamping_Kaiser: if it's part of MOTU try searching http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages, it may have been removed in debian and hence universe
[04:14] <juliux> Warbo, no it isnt
[04:14] <meherenOS-X> Frogzoo, ah bingo... thx
[04:14] <VitaminG> Warba: how does that work? I can emulate that stuff on my 1 Ghz Duron!
[04:15] <Warbo> juliux: Ok, does it have ethernet?
[04:15] <meherenOS-X> Frogzoo, it may not be a very freindly workstation but it works good enough for testing...
[04:15] <Kamping_Kaiser> rpedro, hte package i'm talking about is 'xmail', its not in the default install anymore, but it is part of the distro
[04:15] <Warbo> VitaminG: With sound enabled?
[04:15] <juliux> Warbo, it is working with the linux clients but not with my ubuntu notebook
[04:15] <fahman_dude> hi dudes, is there any guid for migration from distribution with KDE to ubuntu somewhere out there please?
[04:15] <Warbo> juliux: What is the actual problem you are getting?
[04:15] <Yoosah> i'm trying to install the quickcam driver, but it complains that i do not have the kernel source or even headers, my kernel is 2.6.15-23-amd64-generic, but apt-cache only has headers for 2.6.12  ..what to do?
[04:15] <VitaminG> warba, no, no sound
[04:15] <rpedro> Kamping_Kaiser: then maybe launchpad.net may have something, but I'm not sure, sorry
[04:15] <Matthewv> BenPA, thats interesting.. maybe reinstall clamav-freshclam, or ensure that you have clamav-freshclam and clamav v 0.88.. the latest version in dapper is 0.88.2-1ubuntu1
[04:16] <Frogzoo> fahman_dude: do you have ubuntu installed? then press F1
[04:16] <juliux> Warbo, i can ping the sites but i get a timeout from firefox
[04:16] <VitaminG> warba that could be it.
[04:16] <fahman_dude> no I have suse right now and ubuntu cd on my table
[04:16] <fahman_dude> :D
[04:16] <Warbo> VitaminG: "If pacman goes too fast, turn on sound" that is my philosophy :)
[04:16] <schalken> home come sound doesn't work in sun java?
[04:17] <BenPA> Matthewv ... I have tried several time to reinstall and it keeps telling me I have the latest version
[04:17] <Frogzoo> fahman_dude: ubuntu has a guide for  "getting started with gnome"
[04:17] <Frogzoo> !tell fahman_dude about docs
[04:17] <Mikelo> is there any ubuntu activity related to the world cup? anywhere where i can watch live skylights
[04:17] <Warbo> juliux: Well, I am not VERY good with networks actually (was just thinking you had a crappy USB modem, where even I can see the problem :))
[04:17] <Frogzoo> fahman_dude: there's also the wiki docs ^^^
[04:17] <fahman_dude> I was wondering what happens if I install ubuntu and use my old /home folder with kde and all other stuff
[04:17] <Matthewv> BenPA, so freshclam tells you that clamav needs updating, even though you have the latest version installed...
[04:18] <Scorpmoon> what's the best way to transfer files between windows and ubuntu.. filezilla server on windows crashes
[04:18] <Warbo> fahman_dude: You need to make sure all of the preferences and stuff are owned by your Ubuntu account
[04:18] <AngryElf> is there a command that will start the screensaver immediately?
[04:18] <h3sp4wn> Scorpmoon: putty scp
[04:18] <Frogzoo> fahman_dude: I'd recommend mounting /home as /home1 & copying over only what you need
[04:18] <schalken> !javasound
[04:18] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, schalken
[04:18] <Warbo> fahman_dude: Also, some things may work differently due to different software versions (I know when I tried it with GNOME once all of my icons went HUGE :))
[04:18] <VitaminG> warba: I don't see why sound should slow it down that much, though. When I use stuff like Atari, NES, N64, etc. turning off the sound just reduces the experience, It doesn't speed things up. And I didn't think the Amiga was that much more sophisticated than an Atari 7800.
[04:18] <Kamping_Kaiser> Scorpmoon, you could try winscp
[04:19] <Scorpmoon> will scp make sure the encodings are right? that my files are completely identical after copying
[04:19] <schalken> has anyone had sound not work in sun java?
[04:19] <fahman_dude> thanks dude for the mounting tip
[04:19] <Scorpmoon> i dont need the secure thing, it's lan
[04:19] <gavagai> i don't know if it is relevant but the amiga was much more sophisticated than the 7800.  :)
[04:19] <BenPA> Matthewv ... that is correct
[04:19] <Matthewv> thats strange then... does freshclam have a support channel?
[04:19] <myworld122> can anyone tell me how can change gamma n color setting for nvidia cards?
[04:20] <BenPA> they sent me here LOL
[04:20] <VitaminG> gavagai: the hardware, or the software?
[04:20] <Warbo> schalken: To be honest I've never used any Java program which needs sound, but there are various control panels for Java in the preferences menu (and if not, in the Debian menu in the "menu" package)
[04:20] <gavagai> both i think
[04:20] <Matthewv> Frogzoo, would it help if I pastbin'd the content of /var/log/messages
[04:20] <Frogzoo> Matthewv: I can take a quick look
[04:20] <gavagai> amiga had like cd quality sound, real multitasking os, etc
[04:20] <bootlick> Using the "mail" command in drapper,  how do i get to the next message? i can read the first then can seem to find how to jump to the next one
[04:21] <Mikelo> its a shame that ubuntu doesn't have any program or app related to the world cup
[04:21] <Warbo> gavagai: HAS!
[04:21] <BenPA> Matthewv ... can you tell me the command to check to see the latest version of ubuntu ... I will check that again
[04:21] <gavagai> right, has
[04:21] <Warbo> :)
[04:21] <gavagai> lol
[04:21] <Frogzoo> gavagai: maybe some day linux will catch up to the amiga lol
[04:21] <gavagai> that would be sweet
[04:21] <bootlick> I adore my c-64
[04:21] <Matthewv> BenPA, try clamav --version , or freshclam --version , or something like that... hang on half a tic
[04:21] <BenPA> Matthewv ... I did an upgrade a little while ago
[04:21] <Warbo> gavagai: Well I don't use UAE much, since I have an Amiga right next to me
[04:21] <juliux> Warbo, sorry i get a disconnet, so do you have any idea?
[04:22] <gavagai> i had a commodore and loved it, i never had an amiga though
[04:22] <Warbo> juliux: Well, to copy/paste my last message: Well, I am not VERY good with networks actually (was just thinking you had a crappy USB modem, where even I can see the problem :))
[04:22] <schalken> Warbo: yeah but there's nothing about sound in there. im testing on this: http://www.cs.ubc.ca/~van/sssjava/javademo.html
[04:22] <pianoboy3333> kbrooks: find anything?
[04:22] <juliux> Warbo, ok thank you
[04:22] <b14ck> i got an error "Unable to start HAL!"
[04:23] <Matthewv> BenPA, try sudo dpkg -s clamav-freshclam
[04:23] <Woozle> What are you doing, Dave?
[04:23] <Woozle> (HAL joke)
[04:23] <Warbo> schalken: I get a "Missing Plugin" page :)
[04:23] <Mikelo> i think that if ubuntu platyed a soccer match against windows ubuntu would win 5-0!
[04:23] <Yoosah> daisy.. daii.. syyy..
[04:23] <b14ck> joke?
[04:24] <BenPA> Matthewv ... when I do freshclam -v I get this message .........  Read http://www.clamav.net/faq.html
[04:24] <gerix> update clamav
[04:24] <Woozle> BenPA: panic!
[04:24] <gavagai> i would panic
[04:24] <gerix> apt-get?
[04:25] <compubomb> anyone know of a linux par checker ?
[04:25] <Warbo> gerix: That is apparently the latest version in Ubuntu
[04:25] <BenPA> Matthewv ... when I tried what you just suggested with dpkg I get a conflict
[04:26] <myworld122> can anyone tell me how can change gamma n color setting for nvidia cards?
[04:26] <InterNut> i rebooted my computer, and now when i try to open my external HDD (NTFS) there is only one file ".created_by_pmount" ... and i have never written to that partition in linux.....
[04:26] <InterNut> is all my files gone?
[04:26] <Warbo> myworld122: There is an nvidia-settings package (but I think that conflicts with nvidia-glx these days)
[04:26] <gavagai> ok i want to set up a simple little ftp server.  i've used proftpd before.  however the default config file for proftpd with ubuntu is, in my opinion, not very helpful.  what do people recommend for a quick and dirty ftp installation?
[04:26] <snoops> I'm having a fun time trying to get my logitech mx1000 mouse buttons to work
[04:27] <Frogzoo> snoops: gl with that

[04:27] <Warbo> gerix: Well, that is whay he's complaining (how to install non-packaged ClamAV)
[04:27] <Warbo> why
[04:27] <Frogzoo> !tell BenPA about pastebin
[04:27] <BenPA> no it's not spwm Frogzoo
[04:27] <BenPA> sorry it's the only way I can tell matthew what I am seeing

[04:28] <BenPA> sorry

[04:34] <erikdb> Hi, I have a suse installation, set /etc/HOSTNAME to "foo", but the prompt stays (none) even after reboots. Issuing "hostname foo" and then hostname does update it. It seems that the startup procedure misses the hostname configuration. Where is this done and how can I set this?
[04:34] <Sir_Brizz> amgad: http://azureus.sourceforge.net/index_CVS.php
[04:34] <hastesaver> How do I get xchat to integrat with Firefox? (i.e., how do I make xchat the protocol handler for irc:// links) ?

[04:34] <amgad> Sir_Brizz, yes i do, from synaptic
[04:35] <Sir_Brizz> amgad: good, then all you need to do is locate the Azureus2.jar and replace it with the jar on the page I linked you to
[04:35] <chuso> hi all!
[04:35] <chuso> first of all, sorry for my English
[04:35] <amgad> Sir_Brizz, strange thing also, i can't click on the buttons on warning messages of azureus, on the right bottom corner, very irritating
[04:35] <amgad> Sir_Brizz, i'll try and see, thanks..
[04:36] <Sir_Brizz> amgad: same fix :) there are alot of bugs in the stable linux version
[04:36] <chuso> my init.d script for mldonkey has been changed and now its unable to start it correctly
[04:36] <chuso> Does anybody knows how to fix it untill the bug is fixed and upgraded?
[04:36] <Woozle> Frogzoo, with pasteboard... a person pastes all their nasty data in there... and then shares the URL in here?  Is that correct?
[04:36] <amgad> Sir_Brizz, but why isn't thing about it in the release notes or the ubuntu forums or something, i googled abit and got a feeling that its my problem only
[04:36] <gavagai> nasty, filthy data, yeah
[04:37] <Woozle> cool
[04:37] <Sir_Brizz> amgad: I don't know, I had the exact same problem and took me a long time to figure it out
[04:37] <BenPA> Matthewv ... I found something ... I am trying .... update-manager -d
[04:37] <kar-tar> what's the command or combination of commands to search for a file with a specific line of text contents?
[04:37] <kar-tar> every clever combination of xargs, find, and grep i come up with gives an out of memory error
[04:39] <kbrooks> kar-tar: find finds. DUH.
[04:39] <albacker> kar-tar, this doesn't:    find / | grep c | echo `xargs`
[04:39] <juliux> Warbo, it is a problem with the dns server on the dsl router ;) now it works,
[04:39] <marcus> can anybody tell me how to build the vmmon-kernel module for kernel 2.6.15-23-386? Running the make-command end with an error "/tmp/vmware-config2/vmmon-only/linux/driver.c:11:26: Fehler: include/linux/kernel.h: Too many levels of symbolic links" <- but why?
[04:39] <hikenboot> hello all---sorry for this question but I cant seem to find the package for gtk+2.0 or higher anyone know what the package name is? I have enabled all apt-sources and still do not see it
[04:40] <hastesaver> kar-tar, just use grep. Why should you use find or xargs?
[04:40] <kar-tar> okay, so how do i get it to return the location of a file that contains the line "line of text"
[04:40] <kar-tar> i'm looking for a file, i don't know where it is, i know what text it contains
[04:40] <kar-tar> i thought to cat every file, and run grep -l on that
[04:40] <thelostbyte> How to increase my resolution ?
[04:40] <hikenboot> Kar-tar install kfind
[04:40] <albacker> kar-tar, that's an idea..
[04:40] <hastesaver> kar-tar, "grep -L pattern"
[04:41] <thelostbyte> Screen resolution..
[04:41] <kar-tar> ugh, i'd rather learn the command line than another gui tool
[04:41] <hastesaver> kar-tar, er, what's the problem with "grep -l" ?
[04:41] <blaamann> I just updated from Breezy to Dapper and my resoulution has changed. How do I set it back to what is was, do I ned to edit the xorg.conf file or is there another way ?
[04:41] <kar-tar> well, it ran out of memory running over every file in my filesystem
[04:41] <kar-tar> you need to edit xorg.conf
[04:41] <albacker> kar-tar, you have to use for, and if. for more information go to #bash,
[04:41] <hastesaver> !tell blaamann about fixres
[04:41] <blaamann> kar-tar: OK
[04:42] <hastesaver> kar-tar, you did (grep -l "line of text" * -R) ?
[04:42] <GaiaX11> how do i access a non static ip through ssh?
[04:42] <hikenboot> can anyone tell me the package for gtk+ ? I see every bloody thing under the sun but the core gtk files
[04:42] <kar-tar> oh, no
[04:42] <albacker> hikenboot, you might need libgtk2.0
[04:42] <albacker> or isnt it ? :S
[04:42] <hikenboot> ah thanks
[04:42] <kar-tar> i was using find / | cat | xargs grep -l "line of text"
[04:42] <hikenboot> maybe its my apt sources
[04:43] <h3sp4wn> GaiaX11: use ez-ipupdate (and a dynamic dns service)
[04:43] <chuso> can anybody tell me hoy to hack this bug on startup script for mldonkey? https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/mldonkey/+bugs
[04:43] <kar-tar> are you using the official sources, did you remove anything?  ubuntu definitely has gtk+
[04:43] <hikenboot> hmm...still dont see it checking another system
[04:43] <GaiaX11> h3sp4wn, Is that a program?
[04:43] <marcus> can anybody tell me how to build the vmmon-kernel module for kernel 2.6.15-23-386? Running the make-command end with an error "/tmp/vmware-config2/vmmon-only/linux/driver.c:11:26: Fehler: include/linux/kernel.h: Too many levels of symbolic links" <- but why?
[04:44] <hastesaver> kar-tar, that's very bad; it tries to cat all the files (including /dev/hda, which is all of your harddrive)
[04:44] <h3sp4wn> GaiaX11: yes
[04:44] <kar-tar> ayah, good call
[04:45] <hastesaver> kar-tar, and you don't really need xargs either. Just do (grep -l "line of text" * -R) from whichever directory (but better not to look inside the system directories; they won't have any of your data, right? What are you trying to find?
[04:45] <brandon_> is there a command i can run to shut off the monitor?
[04:45] <elate> how do I get the damned ssh server to start on dapper
[04:45] <hastesaver> elate, installed the package ssh ?
[04:45] <elate> the package has no installation candidate
[04:45] <Typpo> hey, can anybody here help me out with sound that stopped working after I upgraded to dapper?
[04:46] <hastesaver> elate, try openssh-server
[04:46] <elate> hastesaver: I'll give that a go
[04:46] <bensode> Good morning folkes!
[04:46] <juliux> elate, the package is ssh
[04:46] <hastesaver> elate, but 'ssh' should also be in the repos...
[04:46] <GaiaX11> h3sp4wn, does ez-ipupdate let me use ssh with dynDNS?
[04:46] <juliux> hastesaver, sure it is in main ;)
[04:46] <bensode> How can I initiate the gui upgrade from 5.1 to dapper?
[04:46] <kar-tar> i'm trying to find the document that contains the text "test of lighttpd"
[04:46] <wezzer> hello, my friend has strange x server error when booting from ubuntu install cd
[04:46] <hastesaver> GaiaX11, I use ddclient for dynDNS
[04:47] <kar-tar> i've been trying and trying to get it to point to a directory in my home folder, and no matter what .conf file i modify, the server still serves the test document
[04:47] <elate> package ssh has no installation candidate
[04:47] <h3sp4wn> GaiaX11: All it does is update the dyndns ssh is totally seperate from that
[04:47] <elate> it says to install openssh-client instead
[04:47] <kar-tar> so it might be in a system folder, probably is in fact
[04:47] <Warbo> wezzer: There is an alternative CD which doesn't use X if the worst comes to the worst
[04:47] <wezzer> Warbo: okay, hope that helps
[04:48] <hastesaver> elate, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list, something must be wrong.
[04:48] <Scorpmoon> is NTFS mount still experiemental?
[04:48] <GaiaX11> h3sp4wn, after updanting dyndns can i use ssh with dynDNS?
[04:49] <kar-tar> hmmm... still choking on /dev/ stuff, any way I can give it a regex like ^(dev)/*
[04:49] <armedking> NTFS Realy blows if you ask me.
[04:49] <kar-tar> (obviously that's not correct, but something to that effect)
[04:49] <hastesaver> kar-tar, it's probably /var/www ?
[04:49] <kar-tar> NTFS is evil evil evil
[04:49] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: mount to read is fine you just cant write safely to ntfs from linux
[04:49] <Matthewv> Scorpmoon, I believe that it is for write access, bur read access is stable
[04:49] <hastesaver> !ntfs
[04:49] <ubotu> to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions there is no write support for ntfs that is safe. <!winfstab>
[04:49] <kar-tar> ok, i'll try searching /var/*
[04:49] <bensode> NTFS is mountable reliably,  Writing to it i another story
[04:49] <Scorpmoon> check the poll on this page, regarding what file system to use for sharing: http://www.linux-ntfs.org/content/view/159/84/
[04:49] <hastesaver> kar-tar, my guess is that the file is /var/www/index.html :)
[04:49] <kar-tar> I'd use a fat32 partition to move data between NTFS and linux
[04:50] <Scorpmoon> ok
[04:50] <kar-tar> no such fil,e or directory
[04:50] <elate> hastesaver: doesn't seem to fit in pastebin :p
[04:50] <Scorpmoon> i forgot, what is the largest partition size with fat32?
[04:50] <kar-tar> 80 some gigs
[04:50] <kar-tar> or maybe 120 some
[04:50] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: to write to i think its 4gig
[04:50] <kar-tar> oh no, way bigger than that
[04:51] <kar-tar> you're thinking fat16
[04:51] <Scorpmoon> hehe i believe so
[04:51] <kar-tar> ah, that upgrade to win98, such a fateful day
[04:51] <Matthewv> max file size is 4gig
[04:51] <bensode> alrighty then!  Going to upgrade to 6.06 and see what breaks =)
[04:51] <Warbo> Scorpmoon: I know file size is 4GB, but I think my mate made a huge fat partition recently and Windows just said it was "RAW" after it reached a certain size
[04:51] <gnomefreak> Matthewv: thank you thats what i was thinking
[04:51] <hastesaver> elate, that's incredible... try again, or use http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic to get a new sources.list
[04:51] <Matthewv> no probs gnomefreak
[04:51] <Scorpmoon> 4 gig is gonna be a problem with those dual dvd isos..
[04:52] <Bazzi> even with single dvd isos
[04:52] <Scorpmoon> right..
[04:52] <elate> hastesaver: ignore that, it was just vnc failpasting
[04:52] <gnomefreak> Scorpmoon: burn them ;)
[04:52] <kar-tar> use a .RAR utility to break large files up
[04:52] <Dr_Willis> make and format the vfat partition under linux - XP likes to force you to use ntfs for anything over a specific size
[04:52] <GaiaX11> h3sp4wn, the problem is that when i try to access a machine outside my intranet. Like ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>it hangs in the konsole and do not ask me for the password
[04:52] <Woozle> What is the Windows Manager for Ubuntu?
[04:52] <kar-tar> gnome
[04:52] <Warbo> Woozle: Metacity
[04:52] <keyshawn> nautilus
[04:52] <vesperofshadow> quick question I am on 6.06, everything installed fine. The only exception is the manufacturer list is empty when I go to install my printer. Any ideas as to what package I need to install to correct this?
[04:53] <gnomefreak> metacity
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> or use one of those ext2/3 reader/writer drivers for xp and just use a spare ext2 partition.
[04:53] <keyshawn> (yeah, im wrong)
[04:53] <keyshawn> heh, 3 different answers he gets.
[04:53] <kar-tar> yeah, i was going to ask, what's the status of ext2/3 on xp?
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> vesperofshadow,  'foomatic' i think is the term in the printer driver packages. I had a similer issue.
[04:53] <dbernar1> GaiaX11: 10. is reserved for intranets, and is not avail on the internet.
[04:53] <Bazzi> Dr_Willis: winxp likes to screw up the ext parittion then though
[04:53] <Woozle> Warbo: thanks
[04:53] <hastesaver> Woozle, metacity by default (under Gnome), but you can also install whatever other one you like
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> kar-tar,  i use it all the time with no problems..  others seem to have issues.
[04:53] <vesperofshadow> Thank you Dr wWillis
[04:53] <elate> hastesaver: ok pastebin keeps crashing atm
[04:53] <Woozle> hastesaver: thank you.
[04:54] <kar-tar> what are the names of the projects?
[04:54] <elate> I'll just replace my sources list and try again
[04:54] <KuLover> Anyone use fulxbox?
[04:54] <djtansey> what does it mean when nautilus cd burner says Some files don't have a suitable name for a Windows-compatible CD? how do i correct this (i'm trying to burn a backup that will need to be loaded onto a windows machine)
[04:54] <KuLover> fluxbox*
[04:54] <Woozle> Is there a help channel for metacity?
[04:54] <gnomefreak> metacity =window manager  nautilus =file manager gnome= desktopenviornment
[04:54] <bootlick> What do i need to get to use the "make" command on drapper?
[04:54] <Warbo> hastesaver: How do you tell GNOME to use a different WM? (there are references all over Configuration Editor and the alternatives system)
[04:54] <joachim-n> yelp search doesn't work
[04:54] <GaiaX11> dbernar1, But using debian i can do that!
[04:54] <Dr_Willis> www.fs-driver.org/  is hat i use to let xp read/write my ext2 partitions
[04:54] <dbernar1> :-/
[04:54] <dbernar1> Seveas: ping
[04:54] <dbernar1> cafuego: ping
[04:54] <Dr_Willis> pong
[04:55] <gnomefreak> dbernar1: whats the problem?
[04:55] <dbernar1> I want to ask them a question.
[04:55] <kar-tar> so have you guys been using the deskbar?  i love this thing
[04:55] <Woozle> Where can I find help for metacity in Ubuntu?
[04:55] <Woozle> (chat)
[04:55] <kar-tar> here if you're lucky
[04:55] <kar-tar> what's the problem?
[04:55] <gnomefreak> Woozle: here or try #metacity
[04:55] <Dr_Willis> Woozle,  the wiki and forums proberly have answers to any questions you may ask. :P
[04:55] <Woozle> #metacity is empty
[04:55] <Hobbsee> dbernar1: i think cafuego is on holidays
[04:55] <Warbo> kar-tar: I'm trying to stop myself launching Epiphany and entering an address, since deskbar doe it for me :)
[04:56] <gnomefreak> Seveas: isnt here atm either
[04:56] <kar-tar> #debian if all else fails
[04:56] <dbernar1> I can see that, thanks guys...
[04:56] <kar-tar> make sure to announce yourself as a n00buntu loser
[04:56] <Woozle> I am testing out the GIMP and wanted to have the tool palettes be "always on top" of the canvas (not on top of everything I am running).  Can it be done?  GIMP help says to ask my windows manager.
[04:56] <GaiaX11> dbernar1, I have a friend not far from me and i'd like to help him with some configs and i'd like to access his machine. And his machine is 10.xxx.xxx.x, so why can't i access his machine through ssh?
[04:56] <Woozle> i am a n00buntu lser
[04:56] <dbernar1> oh ya, they wont flame you then at all...
[04:57] <bootlick> What do i need to get to use the "make" command on drapper? Is there a package I am missing
[04:57] <Warbo> Woozle: I don't think Metacity can do that. You need a WM with different "layers"
[04:57] <kar-tar> better to say it up front, and make it clear that you've asked for help elsewhere first
[04:57] <dbernar1> GaiaX11: 10. is reserved for intranets, and does not exist on the internet, iirc.
[04:57] <gnomefreak> bootlick: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:57] <dbernar1> GaiaX11: does he use a router?
[04:57] <fluxy> uh hey ppl am leaving too much lag, i'll have to check my net connection *sic*
[04:57] <bootlick> thanks gnomefreak
[04:57] <Dr_Willis> Woozle,  most window managers can do that.. check the windows 'control' menu. or use a theme that adds the buttons to the menu title bar
[04:57] <hastesaver> bootlick, first, make sure you really want to do that :) (Whatever you're installing is very likely available in the repos)
[04:57] <gnomefreak> bootlick: yw
[04:57] <Frogzoo_away> GaiaX11: cos maybe your friend's not running an sshd (ssh daemon)?
[04:57] <Warbo> Woozle: Or, even better, give the canvas an "Always Below" property (which Metacity can't do)
[04:57] <h3sp4wn> Warbo: #linux-help is much more helpful/knowledgeable than #debian in my experience (bizzare gpg problem on debian sid mipsel that someone helped me fix)
[04:58] <keyshawn> my floppy drive detected and read the first disk i put in there, but i ejected it, and  put in a new disk, but nautilus and bash is detecting as if the first disk is still in there.
[04:58] <kar-tar> oh hey, i don't have my desktop system here to work on, but have people gotten widescreen monitors to work in ubuntu?  the only references i'm able to find are for laptops, and they haven't worked for me.
[04:58] <GaiaX11> Frogzoo_away, His is i myself installed it
[04:58] <gnomefreak> brb smoke
[04:58] <Codenut> Some one gave a link to a sources.list file that I have lost could someone point it out to me please?
[04:58] <Woozle> Dr_Willis I tried the control menu and it has "on top" but results in it being on top of FireFox and other programs.
[04:58] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Codenut -about sources
[04:58] <Frogzoo> h3sp4wn: I think #debian's probably more knowledgeable, but maybe #linux-help is more helpful O.o
[04:58] <Matthewv> Frogzoo, did you end up having a look at my /var/log/messages ??
[04:59] <Warbo> Woozle: Try to find a WM with "Always Below" function
[04:59] <papapep> GaiaX11: And did you modify his router config to forward the ssh port to his pc?
[04:59] <Woozle> Warbo: I don't see an option for always below, either
[04:59] <Frogzoo> Matthewv: pastebin url?
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> Woozle,  thats what on top does. :P  put other programs on their own desktop  perhaps.
[04:59] <Warbo> Woozle: Yes, Metacity can't do it
[04:59] <wweasel> Could someone help me? I just installed ubuntu yesterday. I like amaroK. It's default play/pause etc. shortcuts involve the windows key. how do i set up the windows key?
[04:59] <h3sp4wn> Frogzoo: No one seems to know much about mips in #debian
[04:59] <Matthewv> Frogzoo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15471
[04:59] <GaiaX11> papapep, I think not
[04:59] <Woozle> Warbo: okay, I will search for some comparisons before doing anything else, thanks
[04:59] <Frogzoo> h3sp4wn: is this 4 wrt54gs?
[04:59] <Warbo> wweasel: Does it not just work straight away? (Are you on a Mac?)
[04:59] <h3sp4wn> Frogzoo: netgear WGT634U
[04:59] <keyshawn> should i manually unmount my floppy drive /
[05:00] <wweasel> warbo: no, on a laptop
[05:00] <Frogzoo> h3sp4wn: you're best to take your openwrt questions to openwrt.org
[05:00] <vesperofshadow> looks like I have the latest foomatic db and db engines installed already. I did reinstall foomatic-db but that does not seem to have helped. manufacturer list is still empty
[05:00] <papapep> GaiaX11: Then, you've got it....
[05:00] <Codenut> !ubuntu tell codenute -about sourced
[05:00] <h3sp4wn> Frogzoo: Its not running openwrt though its running debian
[05:00] <ubotu> Codenut: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:00] <roler> Is there a program that replaces network-admin that actually works, and let's you connect to multiple wireless connections?
[05:00] <Frogzoo> h3sp4wn: well there's your problem ;)
[05:00] <wezzer> Warbo: is there anything special in this alternative install cd? I ask because my friend hasn't tried linux until now :-)
[05:00] <Matthewv> Codenut, give /msg ubotu sourced a try
[05:01] <GaiaX11> papapep, which is the file to do that? ssh.conf?
[05:01] <bootlick> Ugg, now where do I find kernel build files?
[05:01] <h3sp4wn> Frogzoo: debian supports mipsel its a supported architecture
[05:01] <kar-tar> i've never found a wireless connection manager i like for ANY os, i just use iwconfig and dhclient on the root commandline
[05:01] <papapep> No, in his router, not in the computer.
[05:01] <Afief> How can i install new fonts on a linux system?
[05:01] <Warbo> wezzer: It is just for systems where the LiveCD doesn't work (also, it doesn't rely on downloading packages because they are on the disc)
[05:02] <wezzer> Warbo: ah, ok
[05:02] <vinboy> anyone using reiser4?
[05:02] <roler> kar-tar, ; i wrote a bootup perl wireless script that scans for local wireless AP MACs and adjusts iwconfig form there... I just wanted to use something graphical since I just switched to ubuntu and was trying to keep it ubuntu like
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> !fonts
[05:02] <ubotu> methinks fonts is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FontInstallHowto
[05:02] <Frogzoo> Matthewv: well that's only about 5 minutes of logs - but nothing wrong from just a quick look
[05:02] <keyshawn> Dr_Willis beat me to it
[05:02] <papapep> you must tell the router that if a remote machine tries to access its 22 port has to redirect the connection to the internal ip, and por 22, of your friend's computer
[05:02] <Matthewv> Frogzoo, it actually goes up to june 9th at the top doesn't it?
[05:02] <keyshawn> i tried to manually umount my floppy drive, but it said the device was busy
[05:02] <h3sp4wn> Frogzoo: (I know openwrt works pretty well on it I only use debian sid mipsel for porting packages for openwrt)
[05:03] <kar-tar> it seems like ubuntu should allow non-root to mess with network connections by default, at least on laptops...
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> keyshawn,  cd out of any floppy dirs, and exit programs accessing the floppy.
[05:03] <GaiaX11> papapep, we access the net using aerials through a company provider. So, is the company server the router?
[05:03] <ThePub> keyshawn, floppies become a part of the mount system, if you're looking at it (say via nautilus) it is busy.
[05:03] <Fr0Gs> hey all
[05:03] <ThePub> keyshawn, what Dr_Willis said :)
[05:03] <Fr0Gs> i am using warty hog version of ubuntu how do i make my sources go back to normal i lost my origanal ones :S
[05:03] <papapep> GaiaX11: Sorry, but I have no idea about that. I suppose it is possible. Ask them to solve the doubt.
[05:04] <Warbo> kar-tar: Ubuntu allows non-root to mess with anything, root has a scrambled password :) (I always say "super user" to mean sudo, rather than root who is in fact a different user)
[05:04] <wweasel> Could someone help me? I have a multimedia keyboard...I'd like to map the music buttons to amaroK's default keyshortcuts (win+c, win
[05:04] <wweasel> oops. etc.
[05:04] <h3sp4wn> Fr0Gs: warty is unsupported now (no security updates) you should upgrade to at least hoary
[05:04] <Frogzoo> h3sp4wn: oic - well for building packages, imo, you'd be best off to install the openwrt tool chain, imo as I say
[05:04] <col-panic> I <3 root
[05:04] <Yoosah> wweasel: lineakd may help
[05:04] <Fr0Gs> i know that
[05:04] <Fr0Gs> but how do i get my sources back
[05:05] <Fr0Gs> i got the installation cd
[05:05] <keyshawn> allright, thanks. That worked, after i unmounted it successfully, i opened up nautilus and it read my new floppy :)
[05:05] <Frogzoo> !tell Fr0Gs about easysource
[05:05] <Codenut> Thanks to everyone who helped me, cheers!!!
[05:05] <Warbo> Fr0Gs: Is there a backup (called sources.list~)?
[05:05] <wweasel> yoosah, can i do win+something combinations with keypreferences?
[05:05] <hastesaver> Fr0Gs, easysource doesn't support warty either
[05:05] <wweasel> keyboard shortcuts rather
[05:05] <h3sp4wn> Frogzoo: I know (and know how to use the openwrt toolchain) but mipsel sid has some mipsel specific patches already for 16000 programs
[05:05] <gharz> anybody here who's using Dell Inspiron 510m?
[05:06] <wweasel> Can I do windows key combinations using keyboard shortcuts?
[05:06] <gharz> i'm having problem playing DVD & VCD...
[05:06] <Yoosah> wweasel: don't know anything about that, just that lineakd can help with mediabuttons
[05:06] <kar-tar> dude...
[05:06] <keyshawn> (although it doesn't automatically umnt the disks, it's ok. Thanks Dr_Willis and the other one)
[05:06] <wweasel> alright, thanks yoosah?
[05:06] <Frogzoo> h3sp4wn: ah, nice, didn't know that
[05:06] <wweasel> argh...i'm typing badly. i meant to put a period. thanks yoosah.
[05:06] <GaiaX11> papapep, suppose it is. So, do i ssh them like this: ssh 200.xxx.xxx.x (companyIP<EMAIL_ADDRESS>????!!!
[05:06] <kar-tar> any way to reverse the function of caps lock and escape?
[05:06] <wweasel> i'm sure someone here knows this: Can I do windows key combinations using keyboard shortcuts?
[05:06] <kar-tar> (for vim)
[05:06] <ZarathustraDK> Heya, anybody know how to swithch sound-devices in Dapper? I don't see the multimedia-tab under preferences or administration?
[05:06] <ThePub> keyshawn, the reason is because there's no way for a floppy to "autodetect" when a floppy disappears on a standard pc.
[05:07] <Yoosah> wweasel: and read about xmodmap
[05:07] <col-panic> you can with xmodmap
[05:07] <gharz> honestly, i've reinstalled ubuntu for the 4th time now and yet it still doesn't play DVD and VCD. i've done the instruction from wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats.
[05:07] <Fr0Gs> ok there back but i upgraded fglrx and it wont go back down to origanal how do i fix that :S
[05:07] <ThePub> keyshawn, unless of course you want to floppy firing off every few seconds 'seeking'  ^^
[05:07] <wweasel> col-panic, are you talking to me?
[05:07] <keyshawn> ThePub, aha.
[05:07] <col-panic> about key combos yeah
[05:07] <wweasel> thanks
[05:07] <Frogzoo> gharz: define "doesn't play" - what happens?
[05:07] <col-panic> im told xmodmap helps a lot.
[05:07] <col-panic> :>
[05:07] <Warbo> gharz: Have you tried a player specifically designed for DVD/VCDs (like ogle-gui)?
[05:08] <keyshawn> ThePub, thanks, i'm just going through my floppies and making boot disks.
[05:08] <ThePub> keyshawn, there used to be a floppy daemon, idk if it still exists though.
[05:08] <papapep> GaiaX11: You'd better ask the provider. If our friend doesn't have, as it seems, a public IP , they should give you advice about that.
[05:08] <Frogzoo> gharz: 1st off, have you install libdvdcss2 ?
[05:08] <keyshawn> (i know floppies aren't really in use, but i have a couple oldies with win3.1 and 95 on them.
[05:08] <gharz> Frogzoo, Warbo : Totem could not play 'vcd:///media/cdrom0'. There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie.
[05:09] <gharz> that's the err msg.
[05:09] <col-panic> gharz: go to synaptic and download whatever plugin you need.
[05:09] <Warbo> I know AROS checks floppy drives every second on PCs to emulate the Amiga's floppy drive sensor (although the drive clicks every time which is annoying)
[05:09] <col-panic> that's the ubuntu solution for dependencies :>
[05:09] <usama> hi all
[05:09] <usama> i am trying to install/configure lamp from site (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP?highlight=%28apache%29%7C%28mysql%29%7C%28php%29) when i gave command; sudo mysql -u root, i recieve this error; ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO),, can anyone help me?
[05:09] <Fr0Gs> ok there back but i upgraded fglrx and it wont go back down to origanal how do i fix that :S
[05:09] <gharz> my officemate and i installed ubuntu at the same time. we did the same follow the RestrictedFormats from wiki and frustratingly mine doesn't play.
[05:09] <Warbo> gharz: Then don't use Totem :)
[05:09] <papapep> gharz: Have you tried with VLC (Videolan)?
[05:09] <Frogzoo> gharz: you need to change totem's path to /dev/dvd   (from the looks of things, I'm guessing mind)
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> Warbo,  same as the original amigas! :P
[05:09] <gharz> Frogzoo, ok... let me check the path.
[05:10] <gharz> Frogzoo, from fstab right?
[05:10] <Warbo> Dr_Willis: But you just put ClickNot in WBStartup :)
[05:10] <ZarathustraDK> Heya, anybody know how to swithch sound-devices in Dapper? I don't see the multimedia-tab under preferences or administration? Trying to run Half-Life 2 with cedega, it runs but stutters alot, so I need to change to alsa or something.
[05:10] <col-panic> gxine is preety leet, if ya ask me.
[05:10] <ThePub> Will the gstreamer faad plugin allow me to play iTunes songs w/o manually decrypting them?
[05:10] <brandon_> keyshawn, do you think little brother is going to be an impovement over bledsoe?
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> Warbo,  yep - the good old days
[05:10] <Frogzoo> usama: don't use root - use a different user
[05:10] <Frogzoo> gharz: no - within totem
[05:10] <gharz> Warbo, papapep col-panic : i've used most video players and it doesn't work. i've even changed the regionset. :(
[05:10] <ThePub> ZarathustraDK, default setup?  System -> Preferences -> sound
[05:10] <gharz> Frogzoo, ok... let me check on that.
[05:10] <hastesaver> kar-tar, http://vim.sourceforge.net/tips/tip.php?tip_id=285 :)
[05:11] <usama> Frogzoo, nice nick :) ok lemme check
[05:11] <papapep> gharz: Then perhaps its a hard incompatibility....
[05:11] <col-panic> gharz: it took me hours to figure out why i couldnt play mp3s
[05:11] <GaiaX11> papapep, h3sp4wn, dbernar1 , Frogzoo. Many thanks!
[05:11] <col-panic> then I downloaded libmad+libid3tag etc and I was fine.
[05:11] <papapep> Hard, meaning hardware
[05:11] <kar-tar> thanks hastesaver
[05:11] <ThePub> ZarathustraDK, idk if that's the best way of doing it though :D  I'm still feebling tinkering with my only multiple sound cards.. somewhat of a hassle ;)
[05:11] <usama> Frogzoo, no, still the same error
[05:11] <col-panic> it's a dependency problem, trust me. just poke around in synaptic and find the dependencies for the file type you wanna play.
[05:12] <Frogzoo> gharz: doesn't seem to be an option to change it...
[05:12] <keyshawn> brandon_ it'll be tough to see.
[05:12] <col-panic> at least you have synaptic, some people have to google for dependencies, myself in cluded :[
[05:12] <keyshawn> hehe, props to you to pick up on the reference.
[05:12] <keyshawn> almost no one does.
[05:12] <J0s3ph> Hello. Does anyone know where the GAIM configuration is kept?
[05:12] <jani_> i just followed the instructions on the "restricted formats" .. everything works fine
[05:12] <J0s3ph> I'd like to back it up.
[05:12] <gharz> Frogzoo, somebody just gave me an idea and it might have helped.
[05:12] <brandon_> keyshawn, i haven't seen him throw a really good pass yet
[05:12] <gharz> Frogzoo, but it didn't.
[05:12] <Frogzoo> J0s3ph: ~/.gaim at a guess
[05:13] <ThePub> J0s3ph, ~/.gaim
[05:13] <ZarathustraDK> ThePub, nah I mean switching whether or not to use alsa, esd, OSS and so forth, I'm not thinking about switching out my soundcard :)
[05:13] <J0s3ph> i see
[05:13] <hastesaver> kar-tar, read the whole page, BTW; there are some simpler solutions after the main tip
[05:13] <J0s3ph> does the $ mean hidden?
[05:13] <ThePub> ZarathustraDK, oh, my bad then :)  idk, yet ;)
[05:14] <usama> can anyone help me about that lamp's mysql error?
[05:14] <keyshawn> brandon_ i haven't paid much attention over the past couple seasons, been busy due to school. :/
[05:14] <ZarathustraDK> Ah ok found it, had to enable it with Alacarte menu editor
[05:14] <hastesaver> J0s3ph, the dot (/period/full stop/ . ) means hidden
[05:15] <kar-tar> yeah, this is good stuff... this kind of thing might make even emacs usable ;-p
[05:15] <J0s3ph> hastesaver:  i see. thanks.
[05:15] <col-panic> ~./wine is a pita
[05:15] <jadacyrus> when the hell are they gonna release a flash player 8 or 9 for linux? I can't view half the flash content i come across
[05:16] <VolVE> hey all, does the Dapper 6.06 Server install disc come wtih LVM support? I was a little confused as to the Alternate install disc and whether that was for servers or not..
[05:16] <kar-tar> anyone else view not having flash as a plus?
[05:16] <hastesaver> jadacyrus, really? example?
[05:16] <jadacyrus> example: http://www.tribecafilmfestival.org/tixSYS/2006/filmguide/event_np_trailer.php?EventNumber=1903
[05:16] <kar-tar> it seems to be most commonly used to make ads more annoying
[05:17] <jadacyrus> Im talking about useful content to me, im not talking about ads.
[05:17] <jadacyrus> i always get "you must upgrade to flash player 8"
[05:17] <jadacyrus> so annoying.
[05:17] <kar-tar> hmmmm... i hate to say it, but my advice to someone working in media would be "don't use linux"
[05:18] <jadacyrus> gar!
[05:18] <jadacyrus> any ideas as to when macromedia is going to grace us with another flash release?
[05:18] <hastesaver> kar-tar, unless you're working with only your *own* media, and not media in stupid formats that others have made.
[05:18] <kar-tar> 3rd parties aren't supporting it the way they are windows and mac
[05:19] <kar-tar> you just wind up doing their work for them
[05:19] <dooglus> Warbo: 'sudo' really does run things as the 'root' user, not some seaparate 'super user' account
[05:19] <wubrgamer> hey guys, i found a REALLY nice splash screen on gnome-look.org, and would like to use it, how do i change the original splash screen with thing one ?
[05:19] <bootlick> How do i install the Kernel source?
[05:19] <bootlick> trying to use a make command, and its asking for the kernel source
[05:19] <Frogzoo> !tell wubrgamer about themes
[05:19] <cyne> how do i know what graphics card my laptop has?
[05:20] <wubrgamer> thank you
[05:20] <Tobberoth> bootlick you probably need to download the open kernel source
[05:20] <kar-tar> manufacturer's webpage
[05:20] <Frogzoo> cyne: u look what it says on the box
[05:20] <bootlick> open kernel source on synaptic?
[05:20] <cyne> Frogzoo: i bought it second hand :(
[05:20] <Tobberoth> bootlick: I don't know what the package is called unfortunately :(
[05:20] <VolVE> Anyone know if 6.06 Server install has LVM ?
[05:20] <kar-tar> there's still a webpage, cyne
[05:20] <Tobberoth> I downloaded it some days ago myself to compile a driver.
[05:20] <jryer> How do I run php on the command line in Terminal? (I am trying to import a wiki database xml using: php maintenance\importDump.php < maintenance\temp.xml)
[05:20] <Frogzoo> cyne: sudo lspci
[05:21] <cyne> thanks
[05:21] <bootlick> okay, thanks, at least i know its something i have to download
[05:21] <keyshawn> cyne, or go to system>device manager
[05:21] <keyshawn> if you'd like a GUI
[05:22] <mpmc> jryer,  Install the php-cli package
[05:22] <Roconda> how can I fix my sound ?
[05:22] <Roconda> cause us doesnt work
[05:22] <cyne> ahh it's intel :)
[05:22] <sean> How can I download a larger than 4G file with amule?
[05:22] <col-panic> Roconda: what kinda card?
[05:22] <Roconda> uhmm a 97`
[05:23] <Roconda> onbroad
[05:23] <col-panic> try 'modprobe ac97*'
[05:23] <gavagai> i couldn't get 97 onboard to work on 6.06 either
[05:23] <gharz> Frogzoo, Warbo : i still can't play DVD/VCD. when i open it from nautilus... since the file is .dat, under the type column, it says 'plain text document'... does it matter?
[05:23] <dooglus> bootlick: "linux-source" on synaptic
[05:23] <gavagai> but i have no answer for you unfortunately... i just stuck another card in it
[05:23] <col-panic> if that works, you'll have to add the line 'modprobe ac97*' and 'depmod -a' to etc/rc.d/rc.local
[05:23] <Roconda> I crashed before the upgrade
[05:23] <raf_k> hi :)
[05:24] <Roconda> tim@localhost:~$ modprobe ac97*
[05:24] <Roconda> FATAL: Module ac97* not found.
[05:24] <gharz> i open it using Open With... the same problem.
[05:24] <col-panic> hm
[05:24] <col-panic> try ac*
[05:24] <col-panic> see if that works.
[05:24] <wubrgamer> hey guys, does ext3 need defragging ? like ntfs ?
[05:24] <dooglus> bootlick: "kernel-source" is the 2.4 kernel
[05:24] <Roconda> k
[05:24] <Roconda> tim@localhost:~$ modprobe ac*
[05:24] <Roconda> FATAL: Module ac* not found.
[05:24] <col-panic> nah, ext3 > ntfs on so many levels
[05:24] <vesperofshadow> got the printer to work. Just installed the driver from /usr/share/ppd and was able to select it. Thanks for the help all
[05:24] <col-panic> eww
[05:24] <raf_k> sb here who could help with lirc problems?^^
[05:24] <col-panic> apparently ubuntu doesnt like your card, it doesnt like mine either.
[05:24] <Roconda> Sec, gonna grap my mainboard book :p
[05:24] <col-panic> heh
[05:25] <sean> hello, somebody please help me?
[05:25] <gavagai> i had to install breezy and then upgrade to dapper to get sound at all...
[05:25] <gavagai> breezy installer worked automagically on my hardware, dapper worked live but not as real install
[05:25] <col-panic> Im scared of dapper
[05:25] <dooglus> sean: what's the problem?  there shouldn't be any 4Gb limit
[05:25] <Tobberoth> gavigai that sounds odd
[05:25] <gavagai> very odd indeed
[05:25] <Tobberoth> if it works as live it should work installed
[05:26] <gavagai> yeah it was a huge pain in the ass
[05:26] <col-panic> i wanna try xubuntu as a backup os, but there's no shipit on xubuntu :|
[05:26] <ThePub> dapper caused my machine to continuously hard lock after upgrading.  was able to solve the issue easily enough though.
[05:26] <col-panic> xfce>gnome
[05:26] <zenit> gavagai: what kind of soundcard?
[05:26] <gavagai> one of those crappy integrated ac97 deals
[05:26] <dooglus> col-panic: xfce = gnome * 0.73
[05:26] <Roconda> cant find my book
[05:26] <Tobberoth> I've only tried GNOME.. might try kubuntu next time
[05:26] <col-panic> uhh. xfce isnt gnome :|
[05:26] <gharz> col-panic, i've just installed xubuntu this morning but, in my opinion, it wasn't good. i had problem downloading files from net.
[05:26] <Frogzoo> gharz: consider gxine? i don't use totem, so can't help with that
[05:27] <sean> dooglus: you mean amule should can download a file.that larger than 4G. in reiserfs file system?
[05:27] <col-panic> gharz: I'll make a note of that :)
[05:27] <zenit> gavagai: that's oki, but the term ac97 is quite broad and is not just one chipset.
[05:27] <Roconda> damn I hate it without sound :(
[05:27] <dooglus> sean: reiserfs can handle files >4Gb for sure
[05:27] <AngryElf> guys, i'm trying to install a printer -- in the wizard there's a "Install driver" button -- do I have to go through that and find the driver or is that just for installing other drivers?
[05:27] <zenit> I actually had some problems with a realtek chipset, but dapper solved it.
[05:27] <dooglus> sean: I don't know much about aMule, other than that I stopped using it about a year ago.
[05:27] <gharz> col-panic, then i switched back to ubuntu again for the 4th time.
[05:27] <gharz> col-panic, but playing DVD/VCD is giving me terrible headaches.
[05:27] <gavagai> i disabled it and then installed an ensoniq es1370
[05:28] <col-panic> gharz: using gxine?
[05:28] <col-panic> with the dependencies, it's awesome.
[05:28] <Tobberoth> I have some pretty odd errors in ubuntu.. for some reason, my monitor dies at times because of the nvidia driver
[05:28] <Tobberoth> it "goes to sleep" constantly
[05:28] <sean> dooglus: oh.  what P2P software are you using how?
[05:28] <dooglus> sean: I use Azureus now
[05:28] <dooglus> sean: it's a bittorrent client
[05:28] <raf_k> any lirc cracks around? :P
[05:28] <col-panic> bt ftw :)
[05:29] <AngryElf> lirc cracks?
[05:29] <Tobberoth> Azureus sucks :/ uTorrent is awesome, but probably doesn't work in wine
[05:29] <gavagai> dapper also would only do 640x480 with my videocard while breezy would do better resolution... though i also swapped a different video card so i'm not even using any of the problematic hardware now
[05:29] <dooglus> sean: it's like the edonkey network, but without the queues
[05:29] <col-panic> there's a limewire binary for my distro *clap*
[05:29] <Tobberoth> col-panic: Frostwire works just as well
[05:29] <dooglus> Tobberoth: Azureus doesn't suck at all
[05:29] <Tobberoth> dooglus: Yes it does.
[05:29] <Tobberoth> It's a memory hog.
[05:29] <col-panic> but bt means you gotta get multiple files, sometimes I want one :)
[05:29] <dooglus> Tobberoth: why do you say that?
[05:29] <Tobberoth> It takes almost 100 times as much memory as uTorrent
[05:29] <sean> dooglus: I use bittorrent-console. It's very good. Do you only use Azureus?
[05:30] <Kibou> bittorrent is nothing like the edonkey network..
[05:30] <dooglus> sean: I prefer Azureus to bittorrent-console purely for its dht support.
[05:30] <void^> Tobberoth: utorrent uses 1mb? amazing :]
[05:30] <Tobberoth> void^: That's right.
[05:30] <dooglus> sean: if the tracker goes down, bittorrent-console stops working, whereas Azureus carries on working, thanks to dht
[05:31] <Tobberoth> That's why it's called microtorrent, duh :)
[05:31] <Roconda> anyone who know how I can fix my sound card ?
[05:31] <dooglus> utorrent is windows only, and closed source
[05:31] <dooglus> both of those, IMHO, make it suck
[05:31] <Tobberoth> dooglus: I know :(
[05:31] <unclean1> could anyone answer this please? why is it whenever I try to take a sceenshot, I get "unable to save screenshot to disk: Value for PNG text chunk CREATOR cannot be converted to ISO-8859-1 encoding"?
[05:31] <dooglus> Azureus, on the other hand, is open source, and cross platform
[05:32] <Kibou> and uses shitty java
[05:32] <HellDragon> keep it civil Kibou .... or he will
[05:32] <Tobberoth> dooglus: Being open source doesn't make a program good, it just makes the developers awesome ;)
[05:32] <dooglus> true.  it uses shitty java, and only really works properly if you use Sun's shitty jvm
[05:32] <Kibou> yes..
[05:32] <Frogzoo> Kibou - that's a matter of opinion
[05:32] <Kibou> it is
[05:32] <dooglus> Tobberoth: I didn't say it did.  but being closed source makes it suck :)
[05:33] <Megant> Hi
[05:33] <AngryElf> how do i set up my printer to be shared to other ubuntu clients?
[05:33] <gharz> oh god... i can't make my system play DVD/VCD ... i'm getting frustrated.
[05:33] <gharz> :(
[05:33] <Seveas> dooglus, could you please keep the language a bit family friendly
[05:33] <Megant> I just bought new flat monitor.
[05:34] <Megant> And my xorg allows only 640x480 resolution.
[05:34] <dooglus> Seveas: sure.
[05:34] <Megant> And I have nvidia card
[05:34] <bootlick> Where do i find the kernel sources to let me use the make command to compile somthing?
[05:34] <Seveas> gharz, totem-xine and w32codecs should get you started
[05:34] <dooglus> bootlick: install 'build-essential' to get 'make'
[05:34] <Seveas> bootlick, which driver?
[05:34] <Megant> It says like this "(WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1280x1024"; removing.
[05:34] <dooglus> bootlick: install 'linux-source' to get the kernel sources
[05:34] <gharz> bootlick, http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/softinstall.html
[05:34] <dooglus> bootlick: you don't need kernel sources to run make though
[05:35] <Seveas> dooglus, neither do you need them for compiling drivers
[05:35] <Megant> Do you know about this problem?
[05:35] <gharz> Seveas, i've already installed the latest versions... i've followed the instructions from wiki.ubuntu restricted formats. it doesn't work.
[05:35] <Kibou> Megant: you probably have to set the right HorizSync/VertRefresh values on your corg.conf
[05:35] <Seveas> !tell Megant about nvidia
[05:35] <Kibou> in* xorg.conf*
[05:35] <dooglus> Seveas: you probably need the kernel headers to compile drivers.  not sure about the whole sources.
[05:35] <Seveas> Megant, libdvdcss2 too?
[05:36] <Seveas> dooglus, exactly
[05:36] <Megant> What?
[05:36] <profoXP> The Logout dialog thing (logout, sleep, restart, switch user, shutdown..) is it in gnome by default lately, or is it something that Ubuntu added?
[05:36] <sean> dooglus: what speed have you got ,when you dowloading with Azureus?
[05:36] <Megant> My resolution is just so small
[05:36] <Seveas> profoXP, the Ubuntu logout dialog is ubuntu-specific
[05:36] <dooglus> sean: it saturates my network connection if I let it.
[05:36] <Seveas> Megant, ubotu told you something in a private message
[05:36] <col-panic> profoXP that's a Gnome thing
[05:36] <dooglus> sean: I use a USB1.1 network connection, and I get around 700Kb/s download with it
[05:36] <col-panic> it's alike that on all distros
[05:36] <profoXP> Seveas, col-panic, eh?
[05:36] <Seveas> col-panic, no
[05:37] <Juhaz> profoXP, ubuntu. gnome has a new logout dialog too, in 2.14 but it's quite different
[05:37] <Seveas> ubuntu has a home-grown logout dialog
[05:37] <profoXP> col-panic, it's not like that on Archlinux
[05:37] <col-panic> it is on RH+fbsd+ubuntu+suse
[05:37] <jani_> Megant, you need to set the right HorizSync/VertRefresh on your xorg.conf
[05:37] <col-panic> :|
[05:37] <dooglus> sean: depending on the torrent, of course.  if it's well-seeded, then it goes faster than if it isn't
[05:37] <Megant> Well, I try that.
[05:37] <Seveas> col-panic, it is NOT.
[05:37] <col-panic> the 'start'shutdown' thing is on those distros sir.
[05:37] <dooglus> sean: it makes a huge difference if you set up the port forwarding to allow people to connect to you.  a lot of people don't.
[05:37] <Jowi> the latest upgrade cleared the song list in rhythmbox. have to re-import all the albums again, ack!
[05:38] <col-panic> kick me if you wanna have a hissyfit.
[05:38] <Megant> Resolution 640x480 works..
[05:38] <profoXP> Seveas, why doesnt KDE/Kubuntu use the same logout dialog ?
[05:38] <AngryElf> how do i set up my printer to be shared amongst other ubuntu clients?  -- any how-to's on this? the wiki is all about breezy
[05:38] <sean> dooglus:my got. my speed is only 200kB/s.highest
[05:38] <dabbler> Megant: did you install nvidia-glx ?
[05:38] <Seveas> profoXP, good question, you should ask the kubuntu developers
[05:38] <dooglus> sean: there's a similar thing with aMule I think - I forget what they call it - lowId, maybe?
[05:38] <Megant> dabbler: it worked before, its about my new flat monitor
[05:39] <simonpca> Hi
[05:39] <nootrope> i have two questions, please: which IRC client do you recommend (i'm using xchat)? and, how can i find out the default location where applications save files. Fro example, Sound Recorder doesn't prompt for anything and just saves files...somewhere.
[05:39] <profoXP> Seveas, alright
[05:39] <sean> dooglus: Yes. but I have a highID
[05:39] <dooglus> sean: I got 700Kb/s downloading the ubuntu 6.06 alternate i386 iso
[05:39] <siccness> nootrope, I use irssi.
[05:39] <simonpca> nootrope, Xchat is good
[05:39] <Seveas> nootrope, I prefer xchat, and programs that don't ask usually use your homedir
[05:39] <Mikelo> !flash
[05:39] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:39] <nootrope> thanks siccness
[05:39] <neutrinomass> If a package suggests hotplug, is it a bug ?
[05:39] <siccness> nootrope, Keep in mind that irssi is cli.
[05:39] <Jowi> Megant: try this: in xorg.conf, set the vertrefresh to 60 and comment out the horiz one. see if that does it for you.
[05:39] <dabbler> did you --> nvidia-xconfig
[05:39] <simonpca> i have some problems resizing my / partition with qtparted
[05:40] <simonpca> in fact
[05:40] <nootrope> thank you simonpca and Seveas
[05:40] <simonpca> when I right-click on it
[05:40] <Seveas> neutrinomass, minor buglet, not worth filing
[05:40] <nootrope> cli?
[05:40] <sean> dooglus: which country are you in ?
[05:40] <simonpca> i don't have the 'resize' option
[05:40] <siccness> command-line-interface
[05:40] <dooglus> sean: .cz
[05:40] <gavagai> nootrope, irssi is terminal, no graphics
[05:40] <siccness> I'm actually using xchat at the moment :P
[05:40] <sean> dooglus: I am in china
[05:40] <neutrinomass> Seveas: Then I'll just file it as "Minor" or wish-list ;)
[05:40] <gavagai> no point and drool
[05:40] <nootrope> ah, thanks.that's not a prob
[05:40] <nootrope> gavagai, i see thanks
[05:41] <gavagai> :)
[05:41] <dooglus> sean: can you download from sites outside china faster than 200Kb/s?
[05:41] <vinboy> wat is this Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n]
[05:41] <patrick__> hi
[05:41] <sean> dooglus: No
[05:41] <patrick__> does anyone know how to restore something back to desktop
[05:41] <dooglus> vinboy: it means the patch looks like it has already been applied.  do you want to assume the patch was made backwards?
[05:41] <patrick__> from the trash folder
[05:41] <Seveas> patrick__, just drag and drop it to the desktop
[05:41] <neutrinomass> vinboy: It's either that the patch has been applied, or it was incorrectly made.
[05:41] <dooglus> vinboy: probably the patch wasn't made backwards, and you should answer 'n'
[05:42] <patrick__> thanx seveas
[05:42] <vinboy> oh ic
[05:42] <patrick__> i ll try

[05:42] <vinboy> thanks guys
[05:42] <sean> dooglus: I have just installed Azureus. but it doesn't work
[05:42] <dooglus> sean: you have the sun java vm?
[05:43] <wild> can sameboby help me with tv8251 and sata?
[05:43] <dooglus> sean: package 'sun-java5-jre' in dapper
[05:43] <wild> i'm not able to install ubuntu 6.06
[05:43] <wild> :(
[05:43] <sean> dooglus: yes , I have it installed. I use matlab ,with java gui
[05:43] <wild> *vt8251
[05:43] <nootrope> Seveas: seems that Sound Recorder didn't save to my home dir. there are many hidden folders but none have Sound Recorder in their names. I know there's a grep command to ls subfolders but haven't been able to make it work for me. if i want to search all subdirs for *.ogg, what's the syntax?
[05:43] <dooglus> sean: so tell me more about this "doesn't work" thing.  any specifics?
[05:44] <Seveas> nootrope, find ~ -name '*ogg'
[05:44] <nootrope> Seveas: thanks!
[05:44] <wild> help :(
[05:44] <wild> tell me how-to installa ubuntu with vt8251
[05:44] <Seveas> nootrope, the find command is insanely useful and powerful
[05:45] <h3sp4wn> Anyone know how to remove all the alsa modules safely and reinsert them ?
[05:45] <sean> dooglus: a lot of  information about java.for example
[05:45] <Mikelo> sean, how do u use matlab?
[05:45] <noise4poor> !help
[05:45] <dooglus> nootrope: -name '*.ogg' would be better - else it will find "frogg"
[05:45] <sean> Mikelo: type matlab in console
[05:45] <Seveas> dooglus, true, but then again, froggs are evil

[05:45] <dooglus> sean: now you're in trouble!
[05:46] <vinboy> what happen if I answer N to this (Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n]  )?
[05:46] <echostorm> is there a quick way to disable cdroms and other partition icons from the desktop
[05:46] <daxxar> Hrm. Rythmbox seems to ignore the 'Shuffle'-setting
[05:46] <daxxar> Just goes linearly no matter if it's on.
[05:46] <aLPHa2> vinboy: just press enter
[05:46] <neutrinomass> vinboy: It tries to apply the patch anyway, which is not neccessarily a good thing. Can you please pastebin the patch somewhere ?
[05:46] <just_> enter
[05:46] <dooglus> nootrope: also, "find ~ -type f -name '*.ogg'" is better still - otherwise it would find directories as well as files if you had any *.ogg dirs

[05:47] <noise4poor> did anyone here made work ati graphic work under ubuntu?

[05:47] <Seveas> !tell noise4poor about ati
[05:47] <neutrinomass> vinboy: 1. You do know that reiser4 is quite experimental still, right? 2. Are you using the correct patch, against the correct kernel sources ?
[05:48] <VolVE> Hey all, installing 6.06 Server, the installer seems to be stuck on the "Configuring man-db..." step, been there for over a minute... any ideas? :-/
[05:48] <rodrigo1> hi there ! I got a problem with my Xserver when updating from Breeze to Dapper on a i810 + 1024x768 LCD laptop screen setup. The live CD works well when indicating 1024x768x16 on the boot options, but the installed version just gives me a black screen when X start. I tried copying the xorg.conf form the live cd session to the harddisk, nothing. My question is: when the live CD starts the X server it seems that the screen changes two or thr
[05:48] <vinboy> neutrinomass: maybe not using the correct path.... but when I try to patch my kernel from <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS>, same thing happen
[05:48] <rodrigo1> thanks for your support.
[05:48] <dooglus> vinboy: if you say 'n', it skips that patch
[05:48] <Seveas> VolVE, just wait. some configure commands take a while
[05:48] <noise4poor> tell me about ati under ubuntu
[05:49] <VolVE> Seveas: I'm being patient, just seems an odd one... :)

[05:51] <Jowi> Megant: did you comment out the horiz?
[05:51] <nootrope> great dooglus! yeah, i got lots of directories until i did that. BTW, Seveas, Sound Recorder seems to save in the tmp directory by default.
[05:51] <Megant> Jowi: There is no horiz things
[05:51] <dooglus> nootrope: you really have directories called <something>.ogg?
[05:51] <rodrigo1> megant: you have to add it yourself
[05:51] <nanenj> I've been dinking with my gdm.conf file (specifically adding Xgl) and I've messed with both gdm.conf and gdm.conf-custom.   They were working, but, as I've tried to finalize the setup and make it 'work' the way I want with (gdmflexiserver) for some reason it's started giving me a fatal error unrecognized option vt7
[05:52] <echostorm> hmmn. this is actually alot more difficult than I thought to find out. basically, I have an automount partition and the filesystem icon is on my desktop. I would rather it and my cdrom icons never appear when i insert a disk. Is there a easy way to do this?
[05:52] <nanenj> I've turned off autovtallocation and firstvt
[05:52] <dooglus> nootrope: using '-type f' will only find files - it will miss out any symlinks to files.  you could "'!' -type d" if you just want to skip directories
[05:52] <Megant> rodrigo1: but he said to comment it out so...
[05:52] <nanenj> but, it still gives that error.... so, what part of gdm.conf is telling it to append vt7 to my commandline for Xgl?
[05:52] <Jowi> Megant: so you just added "VertRefresh 60" to the monitor section?
[05:52] <rodrigo1> megant: ohhh so, it should be ok
[05:52] <Megant> Jowi: Yes.
[05:52] <nootrope> dooglus: no, but i still get a bunch of dirs...wait they all have Permission denied appended to them. probably because i didn't run find with sudo?
[05:53] <KuLover> Anyone know how to set up a USE Mic?
[05:53] <KuLover> USB**
[05:53] <Jowi> Megant: good. LCD panels does not need horiz and all of them I've seen support 60 in Vertrefresh. might be the videocard driver

[05:53] <ubotu> simonpca: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:53] <Megant> Jowi: I think so.
[05:54] <simonpca> !parted
[05:54] <ubotu> hmm... parted is a GNU program for creating, destroying, resizing, checking and copying partitions.  http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/parted.html
[05:54] <Jowi> Megant: you can try to use the vesa driver.
[05:54] <boricua> where in the filesystem can i see packages already installed
[05:54] <Megant> Jowi: Ok, I will
[05:54] <Rede_> i installed k3b from src, but there were issues, so i uninstalled it. now i dont have it at all, and can't reinstall via apt. is there a way to get apt-get to install something even if it (falsely) believes it is already installed?
[05:54] <Jowi> Megant: ...just to see if that works before switching to the "real" one
[05:54] <dooglus> nootrope: those are errors, not outputs.  you can throw the errors away if you want:  "find ~ -type f -name '*.ogg" 2> /dev/null
[05:54] <dooglus> nootrope: why do you have directories inside your home which you can't open?
[05:54] <jani_> boricua, run synaptic, then click on the "Status" Tab
[05:55] <Smirnov> Are you supposed to "Start or install Ubuntu" option to upgrade from 5.10 to 6.06?
[05:55] <boricua> i dont want to see it synaptic  where in the FS can i see it
[05:55] <nanenj> Smirnov, unfortunately, you can't upgrade 5.10 to 6.06 with the desktop cd.
[05:55] <nootrope> dooglus: i searched / because i wasn't finding anything useful in ~ :)
[05:55] <dooglus> nootrope: if you want to search the whole disk, you'll find "locate" is a lot faster
[05:55] <Smirnov> nanenj: huh ????
[05:55] <nanenj> Smirnov, you need the alternate install cd in order to perform an upgrade.
[05:55] <Smirnov> what
[05:55] <Smirnov> are you serious
[05:55] <nanenj> Smirnov, You can't upgrade Breezy Bradger to Dapper Drake with the desktop CD.
[05:55] <dooglus> nootrope: "locate" uses a database which is only refreshed once a day, so it will miss any files you've got since the last update (usually 6:30am I think)
[05:56] <nootrope> dooglus: ah! locate, find and grep :scribbles a note to self:
[05:56] <nanenj> Smirnov, completely serious.  A slight overlook if I do say so myself.
[05:56] <ressaca> Anyone know where's I can download drivers for marvel wireless lan (ENLWI-G)?
[05:56] <Smirnov> wtf?
[05:56] <Smirnov> i just went to "download" and ubuntu 6.06
[05:56] <rodrigo1> nanenj: Smirnov:
[05:56] <dooglus> nootrope: to refresh locate's database: "sudo updatedb"
[05:56] <Smirnov> thats the desktop cd?
[05:56] <nootrope> dooglus: soit wouldn't've found this file, then.
[05:56] <dooglus> nootrope: (since you've got the notepad out already)
[05:56] <nootrope> aha
[05:56] <Smirnov> where the hell do I find the right cd then
[05:56] <rodrigo1>  nanenj: Smirnov: doing apt-cdrom and apt-get dist-upgrade would not work ?
[05:56] <Megant> Hmm
[05:56] <nootrope> dooglus: thanks this is all really helpful
[05:56] <Smirnov> i dont know, whats the best way of upgrading from 5.10 ?
[05:57] <nanenj> rodrigo, hrm... I honestly don't know. I just know what I've read when I was looking at the upgrade info on the ubuntu site.
[05:57] <zexr0> what would be the device of the keyboard ?
[05:57] <nanenj> Smirnov, some people have had luck with using update-manager -d and letting it do it.
[05:57] <Megant> Now GDM shows everything right, but it crashes when I log in
[05:57] <dooglus> nootrope: locate -r '[.] ogg$'
[05:57] <Rede_> i installed k3b from src, but there were issues, so i uninstalled it. now i dont have it at all, and can't reinstall via apt. is there a way to get apt-get to install something even if it (falsely) believes it is already installed?
[05:57] <myworld122> hi...can anyone help me on how to install widget programs (like konfabulator for windows)?
[05:57] <nanenj> Smirnov, unfortunately, for me, that crashed and said something about invalid package information, unable to find ubuntu-base
[05:57] <nootrope> dooglus: gottcha
[05:57] <Smirnov> nanenj: ok so where can I find the upgrade cd
[05:57] <dr_willis> myworld122,  karamba/superkaramba or gdesklets
[05:58] <myworld122> thanks dr_willis
[05:58] <nanenj> Smirnov, I believe it's called 'alternate' and is listed amongst the rest of them... I can't look right now cause I'm having issues with Xgl and unable to get a gui up :P
[05:58] <spikeb> you dont need a cd to upgrade though
[05:59] <dooglus> Smirnov: you can upgrade on-line - run the update manager and it should offer to upgrade to dapper for you.
[05:59] <nanenj> spikeb's partially right, like I said, some people have luck with the update scripts.
[05:59] <zexr0> what would be the device of the keyboard ?
[05:59] <KuLover> Anyone know how to set up a USB Mic?
[05:59] <Smirnov> no i dont want to risk that
[05:59] <nanenj> Smirnov, any update's a risk :)
[05:59] <nanenj> It's kinda inevitable that -something- will break.
[06:00] <spikeb> it's no different than trying to upgrade via cd
[06:00] <dooglus> I don't know why the upgrade to dapper has been so messy for so many.
[06:00] <vinboy> can this patch (patch-2.6.16-ck12.bz2) applied to kernel (<IP_ADDRESS>)?
[06:00] <spikeb> they both carry the same pitfalls
[06:00] <nanenj> spikeb, the alternate cd uses the same script?
[06:00] <myworld122> dr_willis: can superkaramba be used with gnome?
[06:00] <zexr0> what would be the device of the keyboard ?
[06:00] <dooglus> 'apt-get dist-upgrade' is famous for being trouble-free - until now :)
[06:00] <spikeb> nanenj: i'd imagine so, the installer uses apt just like the upgrade manager does
[06:00] <nanenj> I was under the impression that the script for upgrading (used when you do update-manager -d) was simply buggy. :P
[06:01] <dr_willis> myworld122,  proberly but proberly not a good idea.. personally i think they all suck. :P i like my wijdows all full screened. so *$*#@ on desktop-widgets
[06:01] <nanenj> I have to plead ignorance ^^; I went the easy route and just installed from scratch
[06:01] <spikeb> no, it's not the process that's buggy, it's the packages (and THEIR scripts)
[06:01] <Smirnov> until now?
[06:01] <dooglus> this may be a little off-topic, but does anyone know where I can find audio commentary of the world cup online?
[06:02] <nanenj> Smirnov, until Dapper 6.06 LTS, you could do apt-get update and then apt-get dist-upgrade and it'd update fine without a single hitch
[06:02] <karim> I have a problem on dapper ppc when I dist-upgrade it installs 24 packages, but then after that if I redistupgrade it against wants to installs them
[06:02] <zexr0> what would be the device of the keyboard ?
[06:02] <dooglus> I've got pictures on the TV, but the commentators all speak some kind of bongo-bongo language
[06:02] <mattwestm> how can I get widgets like this http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3822/244/1600/my_desktop.png
[06:02] <nootrope> dooglus: univision.com (hah! it's in spanish!)
[06:02] <hid3> Evening everyone. Is there any way to force my bind9 not to listen on one specific IP but listen on all others?
[06:02] <spikeb> that is gdesklets
[06:02] <mattwestm> spikeb: thanks
[06:03] <boricua> in gnome where do u change themes?
[06:03] <Jowi> dooglus: I just go to the national radio channel (for web-radio) but unless you understand swedish ... mmmmm .... tough :)
[06:03] <dooglus> boricua: in the theme manager...
[06:03] <nanenj> This is gonna drive me insane... I turned autovtallocation off, but it's still trying to append VT# to my commandline for starting the server.
[06:03] <Smirnov> grr I'll just upgrade using aptget
[06:03] <Smirnov> how did you say I need to do that again
[06:03] <boricua> dooglus: what is the path?
[06:03] <dooglus> boricua: "gnome-theme-manager" from the command line - it's in the menus too somewhere, but I use XFCE, so I can't tell you where
[06:04] <boricua> i luv xfce haven
[06:04] <karim> I have a problem on dapper ppc when I dist-upgrade it installs 24 packages, but then after that if I redistupgrade it against wants to installs them
[06:04] <boricua> havent tried it on ubuntu yet
[06:04] <dooglus> "blah blah blah manchester united bongo bongo blah"
[06:04] <zexr0> what would be the device of the keyboard ?
[06:04] <nootrope> dooglus: hah!
[06:04] <betlit> :( i try to install ubuntu 6.06 but get endless "swap_dup: bad swap file entry" msgs right after the 'loading esswential drivers', etc. -part has passed... (x gets started (i see the mouse cursor))...
[06:04] <varsendaggr> ahh my dhcp   keeps resetting and it makes it unpossible to do anythign
[06:05] <dooglus> scorchio!
[06:05] <nanenj> Smirnov, If I remember right, you need to edit your sources changing breezy to dapper, then do apt-get update (to update package information) then apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:05] <heartinsnow> movie
[06:05] <dooglus> nanenj: that's spot on
[06:06] <gymsmoke> can anyone here give me a jumpstart with rcs ? i asked in #ubuntu-offtopic, but it seems to be dead atm
[06:06] <Rede_> i installed k3b from src, but there were issues, so i uninstalled it (make uninstall). now i dont have it at all, and can't reinstall via apt. is there a way to get apt-get to install something even if it (falsely) believes it is already installed?
[06:06] <nanenj> dooglus, thanks for the confirmation :) I'm still learning, if I do say something wrong, please correct me :)
[06:06] <dooglus> nanenj: the only thing I would add is make sure ubuntu-desktop (or kubuntu-desktop, or xubuntu-desktop, or ...) is installed first.
[06:06] <VolVE> Seveas: yeah, it's still at that same "Configuring man-db..." step... :-/
[06:06] <Eisofen> 'lo
[06:06] <nanenj> dooglus, good point, I believe that's what killed me during my upgrade.
[06:06] <dooglus> nanenj: oh, don't you worry about that.  that's my whole reason for being here :)
[06:06] <XVampireX> Hey
[06:06] <nanenj> dooglus, I'm -still- struggling with this gdm configuration issue, do you have any clue?
[06:06] <Seveas> VolVE, that sounds bad, kill it and try dpkg --configure -a
[06:07] <dooglus> nanenj: I missed your original question.  what's up?
[06:07] <XVampireX> Uhm, the CPU Usage randomly goes very high although I'm not doing anything
[06:07] <Smirnov> sounds like a hac
[06:07] <Smirnov> sounds like a hack*
[06:08] <XVampireX> ?
[06:08] <nanenj> dooglus, I'm playing with Xgl, when I had gdm.conf normal (nontouched) and all the xgl settings in gdm.conf-custom everything worked fine for the first x display.  But, I couldn't start another via gdmflexiserver
[06:08] <TLE> ati,gflrx question, must I use a dual-head configuration to clone to a TV ?
[06:08] <gymsmoke> anyone here worked with the odbc drivers in ubuntu?
[06:08] <XVampireX> Smirnov, You mean me?
[06:08] <Smirnov> i mean editing your sources sounds like ahack..
[06:08] <nanenj> So.  I migrated part of the options to gdm.conf, and then I -could- start a second x display.
[06:08] <nanenj> Seeing that success, I attempted to clean everything up and just move everything to gdm.conf, now it's trying to append a vt to my xgl command line
[06:08] <dooglus> nanenj: I've never tried using Xgl, 'cos my graphics card is half broken, and was bad to start with.  but gdmflexiserver works for me with default gdm config
[06:08] <nanenj> and I don't understand why.
[06:09] <nanenj> So, after all the background information, the issue is it editing the command line I gave it and appending vt7 when I've turned autovtallocation off :(
[06:09] <Smirnov> Is 6.06 dapper or breezey?
[06:09] <nanenj> Smirnov, 6.06 is Dapper
[06:09] <bluefoxicy> wtf lol!
[06:09] <bluefoxicy> if you put 'alias ls="ls --color"' into ~/.profile, gnome can't start
[06:10] <nanenj> I don't figure it'd hurt to just start over from scratch :P
[06:10] <bluefoxicy> your session just drops you into gnome-terminal and xsession-errors says "gnome-session couldn't start" or some such.
[06:10] <XVampireX> Can anyone help me? CPU Usage goes high randomly, even though I'm not doing anything
[06:10] <dooglus> nanenj: do you mean "gdm/custom.conf"?
[06:10] <Blissex> XVampireX: there can be loads of background dmons doing stuff...
[06:10] <Blissex> XVampireX: use 'top' to see what takes up the time.
[06:11] <nanenj> dooglus, that's where I started editing :) but was having problems with gdmflexiserver. (/etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom)
[06:11] <VolVE> Seveas: how can I kill it when it's part of the install process?
[06:11] <Frogzoo> XVampireX: top should be able to find it
[06:11] <dooglus> nanenj: did you see http://www.gnome.org/projects/gdm/docs/2.14/configuration.html ?
[06:11] <nanenj> dooglus when I migrated everything to gdm.conf, it started appending vt7
[06:11] <nanenj> dooglus, nuhunh, I'll try to take a look :P -reverting changes right now-
[06:11] <Seveas> VolVE, ah, it's not an upgrade but you are installing Ubuntu right now?
[06:11] <boricua> !apt
[06:11] <ubotu> I heard apt is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptGetHowTo/ or http://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals#apt-howto
[06:11] <VolVE> Seveas: correct :)
[06:11] <mikekarthur> can anyone tell me how to upgrade a Breezy installation to a Dapper one?
[06:11] <XVampireX> Frogzoo, Blissex, Xorg seems to be always on top
[06:11] <dooglus> nanenj: I don't think I can help you, but those docs might help.
[06:12] <mikekarthur> you can do it just using sources.list and dist-upgrade I think
[06:12] <gharz> guys, is there a command in linux where i can create a restore point (like in Windows)?
[06:12] <VolVE> Seveas: 6.06 Server i386 install CD
[06:12] <Blissex> XVampireX: thats fine, it takes time to draw things.
[06:12] <nanenj> dooglus, thanks :) I'll take a look :)
[06:12] <Seveas> VolVE, in that case I'd recommend rebooting, checking the cd and then restarting the install
[06:12] <mikekarthur> gharz: just backup our system
[06:12] <oni-dracula> anyone know why when GDM loads up for a login it's in 1024x768, then after logging in imy res becomes 1152x864
[06:12] <gharz> uhmmm.
[06:12] <Seveas> VolVE, with <alt><f4> (right now) you should be able to see more info
[06:12] <XVampireX> Blissex, *shrugs*
[06:12] <nanenj> gharz, I've not found anything quite like that.... but, being on dial-up, saving what packages I have is a great help... take a look on the ubuntu wiki for apt-move
[06:12] <Frogzoo> XVampireX: yes, but only 3% cpu or so
[06:12] <VolVE> hmm, gotcha
[06:12] <nanenj> It's helped me create package CDs so that when I reinstall, all my packages are right there to reinstall.
[06:12] <gharz> nanenj, thanks
[06:12] <VolVE> thanks Seveas
[06:13] <Blissex> XVampireX: however, perhaps your X config is using a slower generic driver like 'vesa' instead of a custom one.
[06:13] <nanenj> gharz, but, that won't save documents or customizations or anything, just kinda speeds the reinstall process when I do break something :P
[06:13] <pngwen> I had 2 dual ethernet nics installed in an ubuntu server.  I removed one, and now the other one is using eth2 and eth3.  The one I removed and the one still there use the same module.  How can I reassign the remaining card to eth0 and eth1?
[06:13] <Blissex> XVampireX: anyhow, lots of output (like fast scrolling in a terminal window) will take a lot of CPU.
[06:13] <gharz> nanenj, ok...
[06:13] <Megant> So what is the problem because my nvidia drivers allow only 640x480
[06:13] <XVampireX> Blissex, Yeah, noticed that
[06:13] <Megant> Or how can I allow other modes
[06:14] <feniks> dunno if this is right channel, but i'd very much appreciate some help on bind9
[06:14] <Blissex> feniks: #DNS
[06:14] <XVampireX> Where's xorg.conf ?
[06:14] <feniks> oh ok
[06:14] <aLPHa2>  bbl
[06:14] <Megant> XVampireX: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:14] <Blissex> feniks: if #DNS is a bit empty try #LinuxHelp
[06:14] <XVampireX> thanks
[06:15] <VolVE> Seveas: I'm rebooting and testing the CD right now, but Alf-F4 only said "11:37 Setting up ubuntu-standard..." no errors or anything, very odd
[06:16] <pngwen> I have tried editing modules.conf, but that doesn't seem to work
[06:17] <dooglus> gharz: you can back up all the hidden stuff in your home directory using this:
[06:17] <dooglus> gharz: find ~ -maxdepth 1 -name '.*' -print0 | xargs -0 tar cfz ~/backup.$(date).tgz
[06:17] <dooglus> gharz: that's kind of like a backup-point - but only for your personal settings
[06:17] <Megant> So does anyone know about this Nvidia problem?
[06:17] <gharz> dooglus, wow! that's new to me... :)
[06:17] <gharz> anyway, i'll copy that.
[06:17] <nanenj> dooglus, neat tip!
[06:17] <s|k> Megant: what nvidia problem?
[06:18] <nanenj> I like that one :)
[06:18] <dooglus> gharz: it's new to me too - I just made it up :)
[06:18] <gharz> what if something goes wrong with my system and i re-install ubuntu... will it work?
[06:18] <dooglus> gharz: you'll need to reinstall any packages you had previously installed as well
[06:18] <Megant> s|k: I bought new flat monitor and nvidia allows only resolution "640x480"
[06:18] <benkong2> is there a cd or net install that lets me choose if I want ubuntu or kbuntu when installing?
[06:18] <nanenj> gharz, you'd either burn you're backup file (that you created) to cd or upload it to a private server, but, then you could copy it back, and it'd work fine :)
[06:18] <gharz> owww.
[06:18] <gharz> ok.
[06:18] <XVampireX> gharz: Yeah... but linux is not designed for reinstalling, it's designed for fixing
[06:18] <gharz> dooglus, thanks for the info.
[06:18] <inono> Guys can anyone help me, my apt is broke? http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/rIqCEW14.html
[06:18] <s|k> Megant: what does your monitor support?
[06:19] <VolVE> Seveas: CD test was fine, I'm going to try installing again...
[06:19] <gharz> XVampireX, really? i've re-intalled my Ubuntu for the 4th time.
[06:19] <dooglus> gharz: so if you hang on, I'll extend that (already too long) command to include a package list in the backup
[06:19] <s|k> Megant: you can edit your xorg.conf to change screen resolutions
[06:19] <gharz> for the past few days.
[06:19] <Megant> s|k: Yes, I know that
[06:19] <benkong2> inono; do you have synaptic open
[06:19] <XVampireX> gharz: So learn how to fix things before you reinstall, learn the problem...
[06:19] <Megant> s|k: Other computer works well
[06:19] <inono> benkong2, no!!
[06:19] <Scorpmoon> my 50x speed cdrom drive defineately sounds different when reading 50x speed than in windows
[06:19] <Megant> s|k: But nvidia modules won't allow them
[06:19] <benkong2> I get that error if a terminal is open and I try synaptic or two terminals
[06:19] <Megant> With this monitor
[06:20] <gharz> my Ubuntu doesn't play DVD & VCD. i envy my ofcmate which he installed his ubuntu on his Acer laptop.
[06:20] <benkong2> both must be accessing apt
[06:20] <hastesaver> inono, do you have some other apt-ish app open? (Adept / Update manager / ...)
[06:20] <dooglus> gharz: COLUMNS= dpkg -l | grep '^ii' | awk '{print $2}' > .package-list; find ~ -maxdepth 1 -name '.*' -print0 | xargs -0 tar cfz ~/backup.$(date).tgz
[06:20] <inono> no i dont think so, i onyl have xchat and firefox open
[06:20] <Blissex> gharz: type !restricted
[06:20] <Kibou> Megant: did you set the correct HorizSync and VertRefresh values?
[06:20] <dooglus> gharz: that will include a package list in the backup file
[06:20] <gharz> dooglus, thanks for that code. i'll copy that.
[06:20] <Blissex> !restricted
[06:20] <ubotu> well, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[06:20] <dooglus> by the way, does anyone know a shorter way to get a list of installed packages than "COLUMNS= dpkg -l | grep '^ii' | awk '{print $2}' > .package-list" ?
[06:21] <msid> ok, is there ANY person that can tell me why ubuntu freezes everytime i plug in my USB printer?!??????????
[06:21] <hastesaver> inono, I'm sure there is a 'proper' solution, but I think you can also just try rebooting :)
[06:21] <Blissex> dooglus: list the files in '/var/lib/dpkg/'
[06:21] <Megant> I have tried but it didn't help
[06:21] <gharz> Blissex, i've already installed the files mentioned the RestrictredFormats
[06:21] <dooglus> Blissex: that gives "alternatives available available-old cmethopt diversions diversions-old info lock methods parts statoverride statoverride-old status status-old updates"
[06:21] <Smirnov> this is retarded
[06:21] <Smirnov> i pressed ctrl+alt+backspace and it broke
[06:22] <Smirnov> i'll just reinstall u
[06:22] <dooglus> Smirnov: control-alt-backspace is supposed to kill the X server.  didn't it?
[06:22] <Megant> But 640x480 works..
[06:22] <s|k> Megant: which nvidia driver do you have?
[06:22] <nicholaspaul> When i upgraded to Dapper, I lost Networking in the System/Admin menu - how do I get it back? Whats that app called?
[06:22] <Blissex> dooglus: a bit of initiative, look under those subdirs, e.g. for all files '/var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list'
[06:23] <Megant> s|k: Umm, version or what?
[06:23] <s|k> Megant: version type is it the repository binary or the proprietary one from NVIDA and if so what version
[06:23] <msid> is there ANY person that can tell me why ubuntu freezes everytime i plug in my USB printer?!??????????
[06:24] <hastesaver> msid, I'm sure such a person exists :)
[06:24] <brandon_> misd: if you plug it in before you start the PC, does it not start?
[06:24] <msid> brandon_: no
[06:24] <nanenj> dooglus, just a note, that backups up -every- directory in your home, not just the settings ones :P
[06:24] <dooglus> nanenj: why?
[06:24] <Frogzoo> dooglus: dpkg --get-selections | awk '{print $1}'
[06:24] <dooglus> nanenj: oh, it includes '.'?
[06:25] <s|k> heh if I backuped every directory in my home I'd run out of disk space
[06:25] <nanenj> Not sure why, I just tried it... but, it back'd up some normal directories, maybe I just misunderstood the intent :)
[06:25] <nanenj> I thought it was meant to only back up things like .irssi and .firefox
[06:25] <Smirnov> I restarted my computer now apt-get is taking forever to connect
[06:25] <dooglus> Blissex's idea lists packages that used to be installed, but which aren't any more
[06:25] <scud> I must say ubuntu rocks
[06:25] <Megant> Hmm, drivers are from nvidia and version is 1.0-8762
[06:26] <vic_> Im running xubuntu on my ibm thinkpad 770x, and i get no sound
[06:26] <dooglus> nanenj: it should only back up stuff beginning with a '.'
[06:26] <nicholaspaul> Can someone tell me why I get 'Frequency Out of Range' error message before Ubuntu starts - its a screen error (ie. looks like the monitor menu...) ? ?
[06:26] <nanenj> dooglus can you PM it to me?  (I'm trying to do this in console :P) still haven't gotten back into X ;)
[06:26] <s|k> Megant: do you have a back up copy of your xorg.conf when you had nvidia-glx installed ?
[06:26] <Frogzoo> !tell nicholaspaul about fixres
[06:26] <nanenj> that way it won't scroll off the top of the screen ;)
[06:26] <s|k> Megant: assuming you've ever had nvidia-glx installed
[06:26] <nicholaspaul> thx Frogzoo
[06:26] <Smirnov> ok how come when I put a script in ~/.bash_profile it didnt execute when I logged on?
[06:26] <Megant> s|k: I think so.
[06:27] <Frogzoo> Smirnov: you want ~/.gnomerc
[06:27] <Megant> s|k: But everything works with my 17" CRT
[06:27] <s|k> Megant: my recommendation is to replace that back up copy, install nvidia-glx
[06:27] <dooglus> Smirnov: because ~/.bash_profile doesn't run if you log in using gdm
[06:27] <kimo> Smirnov: maybe u need to 'chmod +x script' first ?
[06:27] <s|k> Megant: and see if that works
[06:27] <Megant> I have nvidia-glx
[06:27] <dooglus> kimo: no, ~/.bash_profile doesn't need execute permission - it's sourced, not executed
[06:27] <s|k> Megant: you cannot both have nvidia-glx and nvidia 8762
[06:27] <dooglus> Smirnov: it will run if you log in to a virtual terminal
[06:27] <kimo> dooglus: I'm talking about the other script it is calling
[06:27] <Smirnov> ...?
[06:27] <Smirnov> and it doesnt runwhen i log onto the gui ?
[06:28] <Frogzoo> Smirnov: you want ~/.gnomerc
[06:28] <Megant> s|k: that 1.0-8762 is nvidia-glx's version I think
[06:28] <nicholaspaul> Anyone else have problems with U 'dropping' network connection? Does that sound like a nic card prob?
[06:28] <dooglus> Smirnov: no, not unless you explicitly arrange for it to be run
[06:28] <matthewc> hey, im having installation issues with the latest release of ubuntu, I begin the copying of files and then it freezes at 28% the whole system locks up
[06:28] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, i don't have that problem.  how often does it happen?
[06:28] <Smirnov> wow ok
[06:28] <s|k> Megant: Megant try to install the proprietary version of nvidia's drivers, that might work
[06:29] <Smirnov> I dont have a .gnomerc file should i make 1
[06:29] <Frogzoo> Smirnov: yep
[06:29] <s|k> Megant: there's a great thread about it in the forums search for nvidia in titles on advanced search
[06:29] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: daily. AFAIK, just after recovering from a screensaver
[06:29] <Smirnov> i just need to set my proxy environment variables
[06:29] <Smirnov> those will get saved if i put them in .gnomerc ?
[06:29] <Frogzoo> Smirnov: yep
[06:29] <Smirnov> ok good
[06:29] <matthewc> can anyone help me?
[06:30] <Frogzoo> !helpme
[06:30] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you. :)
[06:30] <nicholaspaul> matthewc:  ask away :)
[06:30] <matthewc> I have
[06:30] <matthewc> hey, im having installation issues with the latest release of ubuntu, I begin the copying of files and then it freezes at 28% the whole system locks up
[06:30] <simonpca> !tell matthewc about helpme
[06:30] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, this is not the most elegant fix but you could run a cron job to test the connection and restart it when it dies, i used to do that on a machine that would lose connection every few days
[06:30] <gavagai> that is not the best answer, which is to find the cause, but you could do it.
[06:30] <hareem> I have a question. How can i setup the universe and multi universe mode
[06:30] <gavagai> if you need to insure that the machine stays online.
[06:30] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: yea, i understand. Whats a cron job?
[06:31] <gavagai> a cron job is a task that the computer performs automatically on a set schedule
[06:31] <anahtiel> algun espaol??
[06:31] <nicholaspaul> oh ok. So one that, say, sets ifonfig?
[06:31] <nicholaspaul> or ifconfig
[06:31] <mpoer> is there a file in /etc that controls whether I use ubuntu, xubuntu, or kubuntu
[06:31] <mpoer> ?
[06:31] <hastesaver> !es
[06:31] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[06:31] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: how do you set up  cron jobs?
[06:32] <siriusnova> holy crap there are so many people in here
[06:32] <siriusnova> Gaim took like 10 seconds to load the room hehe
[06:32] <nicholaspaul> siriusnova: welcome to the party <;-p
[06:32] <dooglus> Smirnov: the best thing to do is put ". ~/.bash_profile" in "~/.xprofile" - then ~/.bash_profile will be sourced wherever you log in from.
[06:32] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, well it would probably do something like test the connection and then if it is dead do: /etc/init.d/networking restart.  i have a script like that, if you want it you can have it
[06:32] <dooglus> Smirnov: in ubuntu, gdm sources ~/.xprofile when you log in using gdm
[06:32] <matthewc> so no-one has no idea of why it keeps freezing during installation
[06:33] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, there is probably an ubuntu gui for setting them up, or you can do it in the terminal with 'crontab -e' i think
[06:33] <nicholaspaul> gavagai:  sure :) that would be handy! How would you like to send it?
[06:33] <gavagai> one second
[06:33] <nicholaspaul> sure
[06:33] <gavagai> crontab can be confusing you may want to google a bit.  it is easy once you figure out the syntax though
[06:33] <Self> I have a problem with mysql on an almost fresh dapper install: can't reset root password (that has been put I don't know how) anyone has an idea?
[06:34] <hareem> hi. I got a question. How can i setup the univerese and multiverse systems on my ubuntu desktop
[06:34] <mpoer> what is the ubuntu equivalent to $HOME/.xsession
[06:34] <Jowi> ubotu: tell hareem about universe
[06:34] <nicholaspaul> Self: sounds like a MySQL / privileges issue to me...
[06:34] <hastesaver> mpoer, I think it's what /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager links to; but use update-alternatives instead
[06:34] <Jowi> hareem: see the message you got from ubotu :)
[06:35] <matthewc> anyone here experienced problems when attempting to install on a slave HD ?
[06:35] <mpoer> it's more than the session though, I want to change the desktop environment
[06:35] <bdmp> I have a network problem. I upgraded to dapper and my network device changed from eth0 to eth1 and now I can not connect to the internet. I have tried a lot of things but I think one of the problems is that the new eth1's HWaddr is 00:00:00:00:00:00. Any suggestions?
[06:35] <hastesaver> mpoer, there is also a ~/.dmrc , I think that's it. But use update-alternatives; it's the safest way :)
[06:35] <mpoer> I have ubuntu, i want to change it to xubuntu and/or kubuntu at will
[06:35] <whizz-> firefox has evolution start up as default mail client, how can i change this to thunderbird?
[06:35] <felixfoertsch> Hi all! Could someone please send me the standard wallpaper from ubuntu?
[06:35] <felixfoertsch> Would be awesome!
[06:35] <DED|NJE> anyone know how to remove that annoying welcome message in limewire?
[06:35] <hareem> man could someone please tell me how to setup the universe and multi universe
[06:35] <hastesaver> mpoer, you can always choose at startup, right? :p
[06:36] <neutrinomass> ubotu tell hareem about universe
[06:36] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, one second... i tried putting it on pastebin but their site is messed up.
[06:36] <SonicChao> Felix, if someone could do that for me too, I would appreciate it. :)
[06:36] <kevinz> hello i tried to compile a file with "include <glib.h>" but it says "glib: no such file or directory". What should i include in the compile command?
[06:36] <sirius> Free Potato Pie Pictures !!! http://images.google.com/images?q=potato+pie&hl=en&btnG=Search+Images
[06:36] <mpoer> session, yes. not the enviroment (window manager, etc)
[06:36] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: Ok.
[06:36] <dr_willis> DED|NJE,  theres a alternative to limewire - i foret its name however.
[06:36] <pradeep> hareem, System -> Administration -> Software Properties
[06:36] <felixfoertsch> SonicChao: If I get it, i'll tell you :D
[06:37] <neutrinomass> kevinz: What are you trying to compile ?
[06:37] <hastesaver> mpoer, um, what's the difference? I'm not sure I know
[06:37] <felixfoertsch> So please! Could someone send the picture to me? felixfoertsch [ at ]  gmail.com
[06:37] <hareem> Thanks pradeep
[06:37] <DED|NJE> dr_willis...there are a lot of alternatives out there
[06:37] <gharz> Frogzoo, this is regarding playing my vcd/dvd again. i checked the syslog and i got these message => http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15474 does it have do with it?
[06:37] <kevinz> i wish to compile the helloworld C plugin for gaim
[06:37] <neutrinomass> SonicChao, felixfoertsch : It's in package "ubuntu-artwork"
[06:37] <dr_willis> DED|NJE,  this is a limewire clone. :P
[06:38] <gavagai> hmm pastebin is not working here, does anyone know of an alternative place to paste stuff?
[06:38] <dr_willis> frostwire or somthing like that
[06:38] <kevinz> neutrinomass: it's a C plugin for gaim. I aim to compile it into a .so file
[06:38] <SonicChao> Actually, until my ubuntu CDs get here, I wanted to use it on my Windows....
[06:38] <felixfoertsch> neutrinomass: : I don't have ubuntu - thats the point. I just like the style - and want the picture :)
[06:38] <neutrinomass> kevinz: Do gcc blah.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags glib`
[06:38] <boricua> !paste
[06:38] <ubotu> Please do not flood the channel http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for pasting long texts it does not disrupt the channel. [webboard for Ubuntu: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269 : not an offical package] .
[06:38] <gavagai> boricua, thanks
[06:38] <mpoer> know what? I don't know what I was thinking. Thanks, hastesaver
[06:39] <neutrinomass> kevinz: I'm not sure about the library part, never had to compile one. But add the pkg-config line to get rid of the glib error ...
[06:39] <Self> nicholaspaul: do you know how I could fix it? I found http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html but the 2 ways described their do not work either.  the latter will automatically stop the deamon after it starts
[06:39] <neutrinomass> felixfoertsch: Ok, gimme a sec
[06:39] <felixfoertsch> neutrinomass: Thanks! You are great :D
[06:39] <SonicChao> Felix, I am downloading the Ubuntu CD rigt now, I can send it to you when its installed
[06:39] <krang> Does anyone know if there's a way to have a login screen with a "guest user" button on it that requires no typing?
[06:39] <SonicChao> Just tell me your email
[06:39] <Frogzoo> gharz: don't know what's going on there
[06:39] <gavagai> ok here is the script you can use to restart your network when it dies:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15475
[06:39] <mpoer> ubuntu + xubuntu + kubuntu = fully bloated and ready to roll
[06:40] <felixfoertsch> SonicChao: neutrinomass will send it - but thanks for your help.
[06:40] <kevinz> neutrinomass: thank you. I try
[06:40] <SonicChao> felix, 10-4
[06:40] <pngwen> how can I reassign the eth numbers on my network interface?  ubuntu is starting it off at eth2, I want it to start at 0
[06:40] <neutrinomass> felixfoertsch: btw, there are lots of them at http://art.ubuntu.com
[06:40] <gavagai> so if you run that as a cron job like every 15 minutes, your computer will quickly go back online after it loses connection
[06:40] <pngwen> it's because I changed my net hardware, how can I make it forget about the old card?
[06:40] <felixfoertsch> neutrinomass: : How many are there?
[06:41] <felixfoertsch> neutrinomass: oh sorry. I see.
[06:41] <pngwen> I know in most distros I just alias the eth interface to the module, but ubuntu is "friendly" enough to ignore my commands.  What's the ubuntu way of doing?
[06:41] <felixfoertsch> Did not read the second line.
[06:41] <felixfoertsch> Thanks for the link!
[06:41] <kevinz> neutrinomass: it says "sh: glib-config: command not found"
[06:42] <Smirnov> Anyone here using an IBM ThinkPad?
[06:42] <Smirnov> is there some drivers that will park my harddrive when it shakes
[06:42] <Rennen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15476 Anyone help me with this?
[06:42] <neutrinomass> kevinz: `pkg-config --cflags --libs glib` <--- Note the `
[06:42] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, you save that as a file, and then make it executable, and then tell cron to run it every X minutes or hours or whatever.  if that doesn't make sense just ask. :)
[06:42] <neutrinomass> kevinz: I'm not sure what it's called, but its the weird symbol above your tab button
[06:43] <Rennen> and where is the best pl;ace to go to figure out how to share a printer for a windows network?
[06:43] <olu> hey.. is it any way to burn the 6.06 cd iso on a dvd? ran out of cds :|
[06:43] <neutrinomass> felixfoertsch: Still want the default one? I'm not exactly sure where it is :-/
[06:43] <Frogzoo> neutrinomass: tilda ~
[06:43] <Smirnov> olu: yah just put in a dvd ;)
[06:43] <Rennen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15476 Anyone help me with this?
[06:43] <Rennen> and where is the best pl;ace to go to figure out how to share a printer for a windows network?
[06:43] <pngwen> ok, so ubuntu can't do that?
[06:43] <VolVE> Seveas: now it's stuck at "Configuring ltrace..." :(
[06:44] <kevinz> neutrinomass: yes. I just copied and pasted it
[06:44] <felixfoertsch> neutrinomass: would love it.
[06:44] <Seveas> VolVE, is that earlier or later in the process?
[06:44] <neutrinomass> Frogzoo: Not the tilda, the `` thing ...
[06:44] <Smirnov> Rennen: that means you dont have a repository /w webmin
[06:44] <VolVE> Seveas: I'm not sure, they were both ni the 70% range
[06:44] <Frogzoo> neutrinomass: backquote ?
[06:44] <neutrinomass> felixfoertsch: Ok then, you'll have to wait :-p
[06:44] <neutrinomass> Frogzoo: Yes, backquote :)
[06:44] <olu> Smirnov: hehe it doesnt work im afraid... nero says i need to put in a cd blabla :(
[06:44] <Seveas> VolVE, how much memory do you have? and how much diskspace on '/' ?
[06:44] <Rennen> Smirnov: I have multiverse and universe ...
[06:45] <felixfoertsch> neutrinomass: I don't have any problem with that ;)
[06:45] <pngwen> how can I make ubuntu rescan/reassign my network interfaces?  because of changing cards, all of my eth devices start at eth2 instead of eth0 it's like it is hoping for the return of the old card
[06:45] <pngwen> I have about 20 servers that are going to have this problem, am I going to have to reconfigure my server farm's entire network scheme?
[06:45] <VolVE> Seveas: 1GB of RAM, and I allocated the / partition 500MB, also: /home, /var, /usr, /tmp, /root all had their own partitions
[06:45] <Seveas> VolVE, how much on /var?
[06:46] <Smirnov> olu: dunno try cdrecord
[06:46] <VolVE> SeanTater: /var had 9GB
[06:46] <Seveas> hmm, 9gb should be enough...
[06:46] <Rennen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15477 is there anything I need to change in this to get webmin??
[06:46] <runes> NoUse: just a follow up from yesterday. I followed your instructions to get the 80 gig ide up and running with ext3  it's working fine!  I tried several reinstallations of Ubuntu to make sure the data would still be there anbd it is
[06:46] <Pistahh> hi
[06:46] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: sorry, i was away..
[06:46] <Seveas> (during install /var/cache/apt/archives is used a lot)
[06:46] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, no prob
[06:46] <nicholaspaul> Self I'm not sure.. sorry.. I havent used mysql much lately.
[06:47] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: did you post a file (just trying to scroll up and read!)?
[06:47] <Pistahh> a friend of mine has just upgraded from breezy to dapper and now he says he feels that the computer became a lot slower.. anyone else noticed this?
[06:47] <Seveas> I'm out of clue for now - maybe syslog can tell you more (<alt><f2>, start console, type: less /var/log/syslog and scroll with page up and page down)
[06:47] <gavagai> i posted a link, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15475 ,  you can put that text into a file
[06:47] <VolVE> Seveas: thanks, I'll take a look
[06:48] <nanenj> Pistahh, can't say I have.  Performance seems much better to me.
[06:48] <runes> is there a quick way to shut down gnome so that I can update drives?
[06:48] <runes> drives=drivers
[06:48] <pngwen> anyone know how to get ubuntu to change its eth#'s on its nics?
[06:48] <neutrinomass> felixfoertsch: DCC ?
[06:48] <Pistahh> pngwen: /etc/iftab
[06:48] <pngwen> it doesn't obey module aliases, what "easier" way has been implemented?
[06:48] <pngwen> Pistahh: I'll take a look
[06:49] <pngwen> Pistahh: thank you
[06:49] <Pistahh> pngwen: yw :)
[06:49] <felixfoertsch> neutrinomass: I don't care. You could also send it by mail.
[06:49] <neutrinomass> felixfoertsch: Quite unlikely without your e-mail address :)
[06:49] <pngwen> Pistahh: I have never seen this before.  Is this an ubuntuism?
[06:50] <gratefulfrog> anyone know why I wna no longer see windows machines on my hetwork in the gnome file browser since upgrading to Dapper?
[06:50] <felixfoertsch> Oh - I already wrote it but here is it once again: felixfoertsch [ at ]  gmail.com
[06:50] <felixfoertsch> :)
[06:50] <Echelon-H> how can I run an ssh server ?
[06:50] <kevinz> neutrinomass: I think i find the solution, it should be glib-2.0 :)
[06:50] <felixfoertsch> Thanks a lot!
[06:50] <kevinz> neutrinomass: thank you
[06:50] <Pistahh> pngwen: it is part of the udev suite
[06:50] <SonicChao> I'm installing BreezyBadger...
[06:50] <chrissturm> guys, how can i reinstall grub to boot into my ubuntu after installing vista?
[06:50] <SonicChao> Than upgrading to DapperDrake
[06:50] <SonicChao> This seams to be faster...
[06:51] <pngwen> Pistahh: Ahhh, see I'm used to a mkdev sort of world :-P
[06:51] <Pistahh> chrissturm: grub-install
[06:51] <profoXP> chrissturm, you installed vista? afaik vista wipes the whole HD before installing
[06:51] <chmod775> hi folks, I keep changing from a wired network to a wireless network, now the problem I face is that I have to keep changing the DNS settings all the time, now is there a package which I can click from the taskbar and it will have me connected to either of the networkds
[06:51] <SonicChao> well, in order to give the network more bandwith im leaving, brb
[06:51] <chrissturm> Pistahh: just boot with the live cd, and use grub-install?
[06:51] <Pistahh> pngwen: I personally do not care ;) it works, no matter yhow ;)
[06:51] <luc1fersflowers> quick question, how do you unmount drives?
[06:52] <Pistahh> chrissturm: yepp, for example. :)
[06:52] <chmod775> hi folks, I keep changing from a wired network to a wireless network, now the problem I face is that I have to keep changing the DNS settings all the time, now is there a package which I can click from the taskbar and it will have me connected to either of the networkds
[06:52] <VolVE> Seveas: no errors in syslog, maybe it's a bad disk or something... :_(
[06:52] <luc1fersflowers> chmod775, check out network manager
[06:52] <neutrinomass> kevinz: Oh, glib works here though :-/
[06:52] <pngwen> Pistahh: yeah, I'm just not used to using this.  ubuntu so far has worked well for me, every now and again I hit on one of those topics though
[06:52] <js_> luc1fersflowers: mount /mount7point
[06:52] <chmod775> ok luc1fersflowers
[06:52] <js_> uh, /mount/point
[06:52] <js_> damnit
[06:52] <luc1fersflowers> js_, is that how you unmount drives?
[06:52] <js_> luc1fersflowers: umount /mount/point
[06:53] <luc1fersflowers> js_, ty
[06:53] <js_> luc1fersflowers: sorry, my keyboard is failing
[06:53] <boha_> can anyone tall me how to mount .img file?
[06:53] <luc1fersflowers> js_, is there a way to keep a drive mounted but not have the icon on the desktop?
[06:53] <boha_> tell*
[06:53] <kevinz> neutrinomass: oh i see.
[06:53] <Frogzoo> boha_: u mean .iso ?
[06:53] <js_> luc1fersflowers: perhaps by mounting it somewhere else, i'm not sure
[06:53] <pngwen> Pistahh: usually the new fangled ways turn out to be easier.  This is easier than what I was doing :-P
[06:54] <Pistahh> pngwen: ;)
[06:54] <luc1fersflowers> js_, thx man, do you know how to stop ubuntu from mounting on boot?
[06:54] <neutrinomass> felixfoertsch: Sent :)
[06:54] <js_> luc1fersflowers: edit /etc/fstab
[06:54] <felixfoertsch> neutrinomass: thanks a lot! :)
[06:54] <Echelon-H> how can I run an ssh server ?
[06:54] <neutrinomass> felixfoertsch: n/p :)
[06:54] <luc1fersflowers> js_, thx so much
[06:54] <gavagai> Echelon-H, install openssh-server
[06:55] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: oh i nearly missed that! Thanks for the link.
[06:55] <felixfoertsch> Have a nice day @ all :D
[06:55] <Scorpmoon> a partition is universal right.. it doesn't matter if it's made in macos, windows or linux?
[06:55] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, you are welcome.  :)
[06:55] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, so if you save that as a file, and make the file executable, you can run it like a program.  and then you can set up cron to run it automatically.
[06:55] <boha_> Frogzoo,  example of my file: ewdp-tgm.img
[06:55] <Frogzoo> Scorpmoon: the partition table flags the filesystem type, so not really - you can set the flag with fdisk
[06:55] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: oh i see. I'll do some googling on crons.
[06:56] <mcrow> hi
[06:56] <Echelon-H> gavagai, I see, thx
[06:56] <mcrow> i have a quiestion?
[06:56] <pngwen> ok, I'm out.  Thanks once again!
[06:56] <Scorpmoon> frogzoo, is it a bad idea to setup my partitions from within XP before I install ubuntu then?
[06:56] <vinboy> performance-wise is there any difference in running X during startup vs running X using startx in console?
[06:56] <Scorpmoon> because I know how to partition in XP
[06:56] <Pistahh> mcrow: you should know it;)
[06:56] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, ubuntu may have some easy GUI for setting up cron, i'm not sure.  someone in here probably knows!
[06:56] <Frogzoo> Scorpmoon: that should work fine
[06:56] <mcrow> are you boot Pistahh
[06:56] <nicholaspaul> hehe gavagai  i could always search Synaptic.
[06:56] <mcrow> =?
[06:57] <SAM_theman> Muhaha
[06:57] <gavagai> heh
[06:57] <SAM_theman> Amarok works like a dream on here
[06:57] <gavagai> i just switched to ubuntu like two days ago so i'm not hip to everything
[06:57] <nicholaspaul> gavagai: oh cool - welcome to the flock! What were you using before?
[06:57] <nanenj> SAM_theman: I've been thinking about attempting Amarok on Ubuntu again ;) it's just iffy cause Amarok's a KDE app :P (it -does- work, just a little glitchy :P)
[06:58] <SAM_theman> not for me
[06:58] <luc1fersflowers> thanks again all for the help/support i hope you all enjoy this beautiful day to be alive
[06:58] <gavagai> i was using mandrake and debian.  i only adminstered the mandrake machine though, and i got rid of that computer and put ubuntu on my new one
[06:58] <SAM_theman> but on fedora core 5 i had a problem
[06:58] <luc1fersflowers> i'm out
[06:58] <nanenj> you don't get the knotify bug thinger? :P
[06:58] <Frogzoo> nanenj: no glitches here - it all works great
[06:58] <mcrow> who speak spanish?
[06:58] <nanenj> knotify and some other k stuff liked to crash :(
[06:58] <nanenj> didn't really affect amarok
[06:58] <nicholaspaul> gavagai:  i shee. I've been on Ubuntu for a couple of years, but I'm not a programmer!
[06:58] <Jowi> who had the eth0/eth1 switched problem?
[06:58] <nanenj> but, was annoying getting the dialog boxes.
[06:58] <snoops> question about vsync..
[06:58] <nanenj> Perhaps I'll give it a stab again  then :)  I -like- Amarok :)
[06:58] <Guilhermeee_____> where it is the headquarters of ubuntu?
[06:59] <gavagai> nicholaspaul, i am not a programmer either, i can only do really really really basic shell scripting
[06:59] <snoops> do I enable vsync in my xorg.conf file?
[06:59] <refuze> how do i get glxgears to show my fps?
[06:59] <Frogzoo> Jowi: the answer was /etc/iftab
[06:59] <Guilhermeee_____> where it is the headquarters of ubuntu?
[06:59] <AngryElf> anyone know how to set up my printer to be shared to other ubuntu clients?
[06:59] <Guilhermeee_____> help me plz
[06:59] <nicholaspaul> gavagai:  oh ok :) I've only been writing scripts since a couple weeks ago!!!
[06:59] <Frogzoo> !tell Guilhermeee_____ about canonical
[06:59] <Jowi> Frogzoo: ah. did that fix the "00:00:00...." MAC address as well?
[06:59] <nanenj> brb, testing some quick config edits :)
