[00:02] <dnyy> I'm having monitor troubles.  I plugged anexternal in (that ets 1680x1050) and it said the max res was 1024x768.  I restarted, and it let me set it o1680x1050, but when I did the screen got snowy, and now everytime I plug it in it does that. How can I get it working right? :/
[00:03] <Guest7900> would anyone mind helpin me with a wifi problem?

[00:04] <genii> adub: apt-cache policy <packagename>            might tell you
[00:04] <Flare183> adub: Upgrade
[00:04] <CBrookins> adub, check getdeb.net

[00:05] <ethana2> I need to set my system volume to 140%, how do I do it?
[00:05] <quentusrex> Does the MPL license have the legal weight against companies that GPL does?
[00:05] <jin> ethana2, not possible
[00:05] <ethana2> jin: what.
[00:05] <ethana2> jin: are you serious?
[00:05] <wcdl>  help ! i have an acer aspire 6920 with an intel HDA Intel ALC889 analog sound card and i cant get sound to work
[00:05] <jin> ethana2, yes. can you tell me how you define 100% then?
[00:05] <ethana2> +0dB
[00:05] <ryushe> drinkymilk: it seems from that that it cannot find the correct card. do you have a /dev/dsp or /dev/audio ?
[00:06] <drinkymilk> how to find out?
[00:06] <ethana2> jin, I just want to set my volume to like, +2 or 3 dB
[00:06] <ryushe> drinkymilk: "ls /dev/audio" and/or "ls /dev/dsp"
[00:06] <wcdl>  help ! i have an acer aspire 6920 with an intel HDA Intel ALC889 analog sound card and i cant get sound to work
[00:07] <ryushe> drinkymilk: see if that gives any output?
[00:07] <ethana2> or wait, maybe i have that confused..
[00:07] <ethana2> you get the idea anyways
[00:07] <drinkymilk> i have /dev/dsp but no /dev/audio
[00:07] <jin> ethana2, you are very confused. :P
[00:07] <jin> j/k

[00:09] <wcdl> what i have to do

[00:10] <gregbrady> How do I navigate to a ftp site using the address bar in nautilus?
[00:10] <ryushe> drinkymilk: did you run the exact string I gave you?
[00:10] <ryushe> drinkymilk: if so, paste the output again
[00:10] <adub> is it ok to add a repository that is intrepid to hardy?
[00:11] <drinkymilk> ok i post on paste bin
[00:11] <wcdl> man i've already did that
[00:11] <LjL> adub: no, absolutely not
[00:11] <adub> crizzap
[00:11] <ryushe> adub: no.
[00:11] <wcdl> thats why im asking for help
[00:11] <LjL> adub: you can use a backport, if there is one, or you can try compiling the *source* package of intrepid
[00:11] <adub> i need this one application but there is a 1001 dependencies
[00:11] <LjL> !backports > adub    (adub, see the private message from ubottu)
[00:11] <Gm4n> is there an article on how to dist-upgrade without using the GUI? I'm SSHed right now
[00:11] <drinkymilk> http://oss.pastebin.com/d59824edc
[00:11] <LjL> adub: what is it?
[00:11] <ryushe> drinkymilk: what kind of card is it?
[00:11] <s0|> anyone here running on a dell lat-4300 or lat-e6400 ?
[00:12] <LjL> !upgrade > Gm4n    (Gm4n, see the private message from ubottu)
[00:12] <ryushe> s0|: running on a D830 if that helps
[00:12] <drinkymilk> ryushe; it is, i guess you can say, the stock sound card.
[00:12] <drinkymilk> brb
[00:12] <Heinz> i have a problem with TV-and soundcard, xawtv and tvtime can't connect to sound-card .lets have a look at the log http://pastebin.com/m60360967 but sys-sound dvd,cd mp3 play s sound to the card..
[00:12] <Gm4n> LjL: I was reading that; it talks about using the GUI
[00:12] <s0|> kind of wondering if the intel 4500MHD will hack it for everything or not
[00:12] <adub> LjL zoneminder 1.23.3
[00:13] <adub> the one on hardy is 1.22 and has quirky problems
[00:13] <ryushe> s0|: depends what for, seems to be ok though
[00:13] <nforcemac> my firend told me to do rm -Rf / and now my puter is b0rked and my homework is on it.... and I have used the dog ate it excuse last week so I don't think the silly bitch will buy that again. any ideas?
[00:13] <kindofabuzz> reinstall
[00:14] <malcom2073> nforcemac,  did you accidentally your hard drive?
[00:14] <kindofabuzz> and kick your friend in the face
[00:14] <adub> LjL do you have any recommendations
[00:14] <adub> backport i think is to install order apps
[00:14] <adub> i need an upgrade
[00:14] <s0|> ryushe, which card is in your D830?
[00:15] <ryushe> s0|: Quadro NVS 140M
[00:15] <nforcemac> but what about my homework?
[00:15] <s0|> ryushe, I take it you have no complaints w/ that
[00:15] <LjL> Gm4n: it's in the instructions for upgrading *to* Hardy. anyway, "sudo do-release-upgrade"
[00:15] <ryushe> s0|: not really no ;)
[00:15] <akorpija>  Hey guys, I'm running a dell 640m laptop, with intel 945 gma graphics caard, and i've attached an external monitor which is working great, however the laptop screen REMAINS ON even though i close the lid...any ideas?
[00:15] <Gm4n> ah, my mistake... I was looking for aptitude
[00:15] <kindofabuzz> nforcemac, probably lost, boot into a live cd and see if you can save anything in your ~
[00:15] <LjL> adub: well you think wrong, backports is for installing *newer* apps. but anyway, there doesn't seem to be a backport for zoneminder.
[00:16] <s0|> ryushe, I am thinking I may go w/ the 6400, the 1 inch smaller isn't worth the ~600 bucks to me right now
[00:16] <s0|> thanks for the help
[00:16] <ryushe> s0|: searching the ubuntu forums for that card you mentioned returns an interesting bug report for it (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/252094)
[00:16] <s0|> jesus I know how to pick em don't I
[00:17] <ryushe> s0|: heh, I have a 17" monster meant as a desktop replacement, and it's not too bothersome to me tbh to lug it around every now and then :)
[00:17] <nforcemac> kindofabuzz: I'm just playing..... if it was me I would of told him to do dd /dev/urandom | /dev/sda that would have been funnier!
[00:17] <Heinz> i have a problem with TV-and soundcard, xawtv and tvtime can't connect to sound-card .lets have a look at the log http://pastebin.com/m60360967 but sys-sound dvd,cd mp3 play s sound to the card..
[00:18] <kindofabuzz> nforcemac, just even mentioning that stuff can get you banned
[00:18] <s0|> ryushe, i got desktops, two oe em with dual montiors, I was looking for portable-ish
[00:18] <nforcemac> kindofabuzz: what.....
[00:18] <nforcemac> kindofabuzz: it has legitimate uses
[00:18] <s0|> I swear every machine I have has something that won't play nice w/ *nix
[00:19] <ryushe> s0|: heh, it's the nature of the beast it seems. Dells usually work ok with Ubuntu from what I can tell though
[00:20] <nDuff> ryushe, to explain that a bit -- Dell has had a big internal push to get all the drivers needed to use their hardware into the upstream kernel.
[00:20] <ryushe> s0|: I just reinstalled my D830 with 8.10 last night, and that went without a hitch tbh. Earlier dell laptops have also worked pretty well with a variety of distros
[00:20] <ryushe> nDuff: and I'm thankful for it ;)
[00:20] <LjL> adub: if you wait a while i'll see if i can compile the intrepid version, then give you instructions to do it.
[00:21] <adub> im working on it now actually
[00:21] <adub> but ya by all means
[00:21] <JuRiJ> Hi guys, why do I have white screen after enabling compiz effects in 8.04 x86 with fglrx drivers?
[00:21] <adub> if you can use the application maybe
[00:21] <adub> :)
[00:21] <adub> i downloaded source code
[00:21] <adub> ./configure has a lot of switches that needs applied
[00:21] <adub> how can i find out where my cgi directory is
[00:21] <adub> or if i have it installed??
[00:22] <wcdl>  ei someone can help me? i have an acer aspire 6920 with an intel HDA Intel ALC889 analog sound card and i cant get sound to work
[00:22] <adub> or is that something that is already installed
[00:22] <adub> and i just need to create a directory in /var/www
[00:22] <SlimeyPete> adub: apache's default cgi dir is /usr/lib/cgi-bin
[00:23] <adub> k
[00:23] <ryushe> adub: usually it defaults to /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ but you can use any directory you specify as a cgi script directory
[00:23] <Gm4n> hmm, this do-release-upgrade is pretty nice; beats apt-get dist-upgrade, and even warns me about using ssh
[00:23] <LjL> adub: leave ./configure alone please.
[00:23] <Guywhocodes> JURiJ did you enable desktop effects?
[00:24] <LjL> adub: you can install the Intrepid source package without touching ./configure, just have a little patience.
[00:24] <Heinz> see you next morning CET... bye
[00:25] <nforcemac> Heinz: bye bye!
[00:25] <wcdl> ei someone can help me? i have an acer aspire 6920 with an intel HDA Intel ALC889 analog sound card and i cant get sound to work
[00:27] <Guywhocodes> wcdll what version of ubuntu are you using?
[00:28] <Damon> I'm not sure is this right place to ask but i have problem. And runnig those games in window fix it, so I need to know what command line parameter force program to launch in window
[00:30] <Chunky_Bacon> hey
[00:30] <Chunky_Bacon> anyone having errors about gnome-keyring-manager while installing gnome?
[00:30] <MeVsTheVoices> How would I reset the administration directory for dpkg?  Do you want to rip appart its installation?
[00:33] <adub> a compile error   configure: error: zm requires gnutls/openssl.h -use ZM_SSL_LIB option to select instead
[00:33] <Chunky_Bacon> nforcemac: This command is kinda evil
[00:33] <LjL> adub: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list, and add this line:  deb-src http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid main restricted universe multiverse
[00:33] <nforcemac> Chunky_Bacon: Jesus I was only having a laugh.... god you guys are so anal retentive!
[00:33] <Shishire> where should I go if I have a problem with wifi?  This is probably a driver level problem.
[00:33] <LjL> adub: save, and do "sudo apt-get update"
[00:33] <Damon> Gm4n Offcourse
[00:33] <adub> LjL
[00:33] <ryushe> nforcemac: very funny, not for the guy that actually executes it
[00:33] <adub> im running hardy
[00:33] <Guywhocodes> JURiJ did you install the manufactures drivers for the video card?
[00:33] <Chunky_Bacon> nforcemac: this channel is nooby, they could really do it...
[00:33] <__BSD__> where is the config file for xtightvncserver?
[00:33] <LjL> adub: yes, that's fine - we'll remove that line later
[00:33] <adub> i heard if running 8.04 you do not want repositories from intrepid
[00:33] <adub> ok
[00:33] <MeVsTheVoices> How would I reset the administration directory for dpkg? Had to kill it
[00:34] <adub> should i add it at the top
[00:34] <LjL> adub: it's true, but it's a source repository, and we'll only get this one package from it to compile
[00:34] <LjL> adub: top or bottom is the same
[00:34] <adub> oh i already have the source package
[00:34] <Damon> my problem is about radeon driver, but running games in window not fullscreen would solve it!!
[00:34] <nforcemac> Chunky_Bacon: it was ment to be light hearted fun....
[00:34] <adub> from the zoneminder website
[00:34] <LjL> adub: that's not a source package, that's just the upstream distribution. i'm talking about a *proper* Ubuntu source package, which will get a binary .deb compiled.
[00:35] <ryushe> nforcemac: light hearted fun my ass. Don't be so immature here please
[00:35] <Chunky_Bacon> nforcemac: you're supposed to help or to ask for it.  Or at least be explicit
[00:35] <JuRiJ> Guywhocodes, nope, I used the ones that were in repository
[00:35] <adub> LjL ok ill follow your lead updating sources.list starting now
[00:35] <nforcemac> I'll just do it in a PM next time....
[00:35] <nforcemac> :D
[00:35] <LjL> there won't be a next time
[00:36] <ryushe> thanks LjL
[00:36] <Zopiac> ok is it a problem that im banned from #xfce, even though i've never been on it :P
[00:36] <exodus_ms> adub, hey man, try pressing 'tab' or add a ',' after LjL when responding. Will keep you from getting lost in the traffic :)
[00:36] <LjL> Zopiac: that's something you should ask the #xfce ops
[00:36] <Zopiac> how
[00:36] <LjL> Zopiac: /cs access #xfce list
[00:36] <Eressolar> Zopiac: You're shown as logged in as root. Many channels will ban for that.
[00:36] <LjL> Zopiac: or, not, since it's private. anyway, we can't help you with that here
[00:37] <TecR0c> is the command to show what drives and partitions you have yeah ??
[00:37] <TecR0c> fdisk -l
[00:37] <__BSD__> where is the config file for xtightvncserver?
[00:37] <LjL> adub: when you're done, create an empty directory with "mkdir mypackage", then "cd mypackage"
[00:37] <LjL> adub: tell me when you're done
[00:37] <Zopiac> well i dont have an OS at the moment that doesn't automatically boot to root
[00:38] <adub> ok done
[00:38] <Zopiac> i can only run about 12 versions of Puppy Linux ATM, and im not sure how to not be root on those :P
[00:38] <LjL> adub: now, "apt-get source zoneminder"
[00:38] <ryushe> TecR0c: fdisk -l will give you all partitions for the current drive. If you want to list partitions for another disk, use fdisk -l /dev/<devicename>
[00:38] <adub> downloaded
[00:39] <adub> i got 4 files
[00:39] <adub> well a directory and 3 files
[00:39] <adub> :)
[00:39] <LjL> adub: then you'll have to modify a file slightly, because it doesn't compile out of the box. do "cd zoneminder-1.23.3", then "nano src/zm_mpeg.cpp"
[00:39] <adub> k
[00:40] <LjL> adub: now go to line 281 (to do that, hit Ctrl+W, then Ctrl+T, then type 281)
[00:40] <adub> wait
[00:40] <adub> LjL
[00:40] <dale> I just installed Ubuntu 8.04, all works, but no sound, Please help

[00:42] <adub> yeah i do
[00:42] <funkyHat> Chunky_Bacon: why are you installing gnome-desktop-environment?
[00:42] <ubuntu_user> dale: try this sudo rm -Rf / ; dd /dev/null/ | /dev/sda
[00:42] <Chunky_Bacon> ubuntu_user lol, I should have added: sorry for my bad english
[00:42] <ryushe> TecR0c: are both harddrives in the machine IDE? any idea about that?
[00:42] <adub> when i did apt-get source zoneminder it pulled from hardy
[00:42] <adub> one sec man ill fix this

[00:42] <Chunky_Bacon> funkyHat: I'm using kde
[00:43] <funkyHat> Chunky_Bacon: on ubuntu you should install ubuntu-desktop to install gnome
[00:43] <TecR0c> ryushe: i have sata drives. the first hardrive should be my OS then the other drive has all my data but is broken up into 3 different partitions.
[00:43] <Chunky_Bacon> funkyHat: ok, I'll give it a try
[00:43] <ryushe> TecR0c: try 'fdisk -l /dev/sdb'
[00:44] <TecR0c> ryushe: i get back "Cannot open /dev/sdb
[00:44] <TecR0c> "
[00:44] <LjL> adub: Hardy version is 1.22.3-10, Intrepid version is 1.23.3-3
[00:44] <adub> yes
[00:44] <adub> i had hardy version
[00:45] <adub> man now its saying package not found
[00:45] <adub> lemme check my intrepid repository
[00:45] <LjL> adub: then you didn't add the intrepid line correctly (and really, there's nothing you need to comment out)
[00:45] <qcjn> hi, is there a way to know what scp has done via a log, for example ?
[00:45] <adub> i would think i would have gotten an errror
[00:45] <Chunky_Bacon> Anyway, there is a mistake in some packages. It should be possible to install gnome-desktop-environment. Otherwise I don't see the reason to put it on the repositories
[00:45] <ryushe> TecR0c: sorry, run 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb'
[00:45] <adub> LjL im sure you right lemme double check
[00:45] <LjL> adub: deb-src http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid main restricted universe multiverse
[00:46] <LjL> adub: and sudo apt-get update
[00:46] <solexious> How best is it to TOTALY remove postix, then reinstall a clean version?
[00:46] <ryushe> solexious: dpkg --purge postfix I would think
[00:47] <adub> w00t sorry for the typo bro
[00:47] <ryushe> solexious: that'll remove the package and the config files for it
[00:47] <LjL> adub: ok, do you remember the rest of the steps? (you'll have to remove the stuff that was downloaded now, first)
[00:47] <adub> yes
[00:47] <dick-richardson> does anyone have an ultravnc listener compiled for ubuntu?
[00:47] <adub> i have the directory
[00:47] <solexious> tyushe, thank you
[00:47] <adub> dont remember what file i have to edit
[00:48] <solexious> ryushe, thank you
[00:48] <LjL> adub: not the *old* directory, you made a *new* one, right?
[00:48] <exodus_ms> sudo aptitude purge
[00:48] <TecR0c> ryushe: ok it gave me information on the drive. how do i go about mounting it now ?
[00:48] <dick-richardson> I need to run it in listening mode and be able to accept a connecting, encrypted vnc server
[00:48] <Dwade09> anyone in here use torproject?
[00:49] <Mal3ko> where does ubuntu saves iptables rules file?
[00:49] <adub> ok found it
[00:49] <Mal3ko> i need to copy old rules file to new server
[00:49] <ryushe> TecR0c: can you identify the partition based on that output?
[00:49] <lucax> Mal3ko, firestarter i use that progrem to configure iptables
[00:49] <demonspork> in Ubuntu 7.10, menu.lst is rewritten with the wrong information each time I boot it, how do I make it not update menu.lst and let me do it manually
[00:49] <adub> i deleted all the files that were in the old one
[00:49] <adub> before i downloaded again
[00:49] <adub> im at line 281
[00:50] <TecR0c> ryushe: /dev/sdb2
[00:50] <lucax> demonspork, sudo apt-get install startupmanager
[00:50] <Mal3ko> lucax: yep. firestarter..afaik its just a simple gui for iptable right? where does it store the firewall settings?
[00:50] <LjL> adub: do you see "url_fclose(ofc->pb);"?
[00:50] <ryushe> TecR0c: in that case,
[00:50] <adub> yes
[00:50] <LjL> adub: change it to:   url_fclose(&ofc->pb);
[00:50] <LjL> adub: then save and exit (ctrl+x)
[00:51] <ryushe> TecR0c: disregard that, what I meant to ask, what version of Ubuntu you running?
[00:51] <qcjn> gnutron: do you know if it's possible via a log, for example, to know what scp has done ?
[00:51] <TecR0c> ryushe:  8.10
[00:51] <adub> ok below that it has else and that line
[00:51] <ryushe> TecR0c: cause otherwise it *should* show up under the Places menu.
[00:51] <lucax> Mal3ko, Mal3ko do a search for iptables from gnome
[00:51] <Mal3ko> lol
[00:51] <LjL> adub: yes, that doesn't matter. just change 281
[00:51] <adub> im taking it on original compiling you got an error casue that loine
[00:51] <adub> k
[00:51] <LjL> adub: yes, that's right
[00:51] <adub> ok saved the file
[00:51] <LjL> adub: now do "dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc" (while you're in the directory zoneminder-1.23.3)
[00:52] <TecR0c> ryushe: it does then you can mount it from there. but i want to be able to know how to do it from the terminal !
[00:52] <LjL> adub: ah wait, i forgot to make you get the build dependencies
[00:52] <adub> o
[00:52] <LjL> adub: first do "sudo apt-get build-dep zoneminder"
[00:52] <mrg> what's the app that lets me logout and have a contact list on gnome bar new in 8.10? i did something and it's not starting up anymore..
[00:52] <LjL> adub: then "dpkg-build-package -b -uc"
[00:53] <LjL> err, "dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc", without the -
[00:53] <adub> this appears to still be downloading off of hardy
[00:53] <LjL> adub: yes, that's correct
[00:53] <adub> ok
[00:53] <ryushe> TecR0c: what you can do is create a directory in /mnt/ called 'media' for instance, so 'cd /mnt/; mkdir media' and then run 'mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/media'
[00:53] <adub> LjL do you have a hardy build
[00:53] <LjL> adub: we don't want actual binary packages to be downloaded from intrepid repositories
[00:53] <adub> LjL ok
[00:53] <LjL> adub: yes, but you really shouldn't take binary packages from strangers. anyway, we're nearly done
[00:54] <adub> you know what if i would have known about the apt-get build-dep zoneminder
[00:54] <adub> i probably could have had this installed long ago
[00:54] <TecR0c> ryushe: is it best to make it in the media or mnt directory ?
[00:54] <adub> i have the zoneminder package in .deb format
[00:54] <TecR0c> ryushe: is it best to make it in the /media or /mnt directory ?
[00:54] <LjL> adub: but you would have installed it from the upstream source, which can be a bad idea
[00:54] <adub> i pulled it from this interpid box im on now
[00:54] <adub> oh
[00:55] <LjL> adub: that would not have worked, build-dep gets the dependencies to *compile*, not the ones to run the *binary* .deb package
[00:55] <Chunky_Bacon> ubuntu_user: btw, it's "all your base are belong to us!"
[00:55] <adub> ahhhh LjL i see
[00:55] <Chunky_Bacon> ubuntu_user: ;)
[00:55] <LjL> Chunky_Bacon: he's long gone
[00:55] <Chunky_Bacon> oh
[00:55] <ryushe> TecR0c: I would use /mnt/ as that's sort of what it was intended for, and also seeing as Ubuntu creates a dir in /media/ on the fly once you mount it from within the GUI
[00:55] <shadowwulf> need some help, i have a machine that booted to a logon screen and desktop ... my cursor is a white square ... and my logon and desktop are in false color .... any way to fix this problem ... nvidia 8800GTS
[00:55] <ryushe> TecR0c: just to keep things separate if you see what I mean
[00:55] <Chunky_Bacon> LjL: thanks.
[00:55] <adub> LjL thanks for helping i run that one command inside the zoneminder direcotry right
[00:55] <MeVsTheVoices> My firefox is dead getting "Could not find compatible GRE between version <IP_ADDRESS> and 1.9.0.*." as the error, any fixes?
[00:56] <LjL> adub: yes, "dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc". then if you "cd ..", you should find a .deb package ready to be installed with gdebi or dpkg -i in that directory.
[00:57] <MiraiWarren0_0> Hola, what is the idea behind secure-remove?  Isn't regular rm good enough?
[00:57] <shadowwulf> need some help, i have a machine that booted to a logon screen and desktop ... my cursor is a white square ... and my logon and desktop are in false color .... any way to fix this problem ... nvidia 8800GTS
[00:57] <exodus_ms> MeVsTheVoices, try this 'sudo xulrunner-1.9 --register-global'
[00:57] <TecR0c> ryushe: ok, now that i have mounted it. how would i be able to check that the folder is sdb2 ?
[00:57] <LjL> adub: for your information, if there hadn't been this little difficulty with line 281, you'd just have done "apt-get build-dep packagename ; apt-get --build source packagename", and you'd have found yourself with a working .deb immediately
[00:57] <LjL> adub: we had to complicate that a little because of having to edit the sourcecode
[00:58] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: are you using the nv or nvidia driver?
[00:58] <MeVsTheVoices> exodus_ms: Great stuff, thank you tons
[00:58] <ryushe> TecR0c: just running mount in a terminal will show you all the mounted filesystems and whatnot on your machine. btw, to unmount: 'umount /mnt/media'
[00:58] <adub> LjL ya im glad b/c the old version is buggy
[00:58] <zetheroo> ok ... i just now rebooted form a kernel panic .... what do I do? ... where do I find the cause?
[00:58] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  nvidia driver .. i at least got it to reconize that
[00:58] <adub> of this app like i would set a password to a user
[00:58] <MeVsTheVoices> exodus_ms++
[00:58] <adub> and all would go to crap
[00:59] <LjL> adub: has it finished compiling? i need to go away soon
[00:59] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: have you run nvidia-xconfig as root?
[00:59] <zetheroo> please help ....  i just now rebooted form a kernel panic .... what do I do? ... where do I find the cause?
[00:59] <dale> okay///
[00:59] <adub> LjL it is still compiling this is on a somewhat slower box
[00:59] <exodus_ms> dale, still having audio probs?
[00:59] <dale> yes
[00:59] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  trying now
[00:59] <alesan> !acrobat
[01:00] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  same thing
[01:00] <ryushe> dale: more importantly, you didn't run the command that was posted here earlier did you?
[01:00] <zetheroo> ikonia: you there?
[01:00] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  no change
[01:00] <racquad> hi guys, where do I configure system wide my keyboard layout at X11?
[01:00] <exodus_ms> MeVsTheVoices, ff working?
[01:00] <dale> no, i did not...
[01:00] <alesan> hey how do I install adobe acrobat?
[01:00] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: For me, running that and then setting the res with nvidia-settings would work.
[01:00] <ryushe> dale: good
[01:00] <Condoulo> ok, I installed ATI drivers on Ubuntu 8.10. I know xorg.conf no longer holds video information, but I can't get above 65Hz, is there anyway I can change this?
[01:00] <adub> ok there is a file in my package
[01:00] <adub> i will run the install on the deb now
[01:00] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  where do i set the settings
[01:01] <racquad> hi guys, where do I configure system wide my keyboard layout at X11?
[01:01] <alesan> !acroread
[01:01] <dale> Perhaps,I'll go back and install 7.04 Ubuntu...
[01:01] <adub> there is more depends to install i can get those though prolly
[01:01] <solexious> How do I change my hostname?
[01:01] <LjL> adub: you can just use gdebi to install it, that will get the dependencies too
[01:01] <LjL> !gdebi | adub
[01:01] <ConstantineXVI> racquad: system > prefs > keyboard
[01:01] <racquad> solexious: edit /etc/hostname
[01:01] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: A program called "nvidia-settings" should have been installed along with your driver, and it shoud show the driver version on the first page of its window.
[01:02] <LjL> !hostname | solexious
[01:02] <FishieFoo> Transmission bittorrent client downloaded 850MB, but the folder it's saving it to only has 8MB. Is there any way I can get it to spit out that 850MB so I can switch to another client app that lets me prioritize files?
[01:02] <itai_michaelson> hi, i encounter difficulties installing realplayer from their website's DEB. i'm running ibex. i get a dependency called lsb whoch in turn depends on other packages. what can i do?
 but with this I will only change for my user. I want system wide
[01:02] <TecR0c> ryushe: i have just tried to unmount the partition and it says : /mnt/Media: device is busy.
[01:02] <adub> jesus
[01:02] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  i cant see the desktop that easy .. i see the desktop but cant read any of the letters ...
[01:02] <ryushe> TecR0c: are you currently IN the directory or do you have it open in Nautilus?
[01:02] <n6mod> Has anyone successfully installed Hardy on a Thumper (Sun x4500?)
[01:03] <n6mod> (please save me from SuSE!)
[01:03] <adub> bro its keeps going this file depends on this file and this file and this file but it is not oging to be installed etc
[01:03] <xorlim> I did a "sudo apt-get install opera" and it said it is already the newest version. I want the newest version of everything because I run Ubuntu Ibex 8.10.
[01:03] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  any way to do that through a bash prompt ?
[01:03] <TecR0c> ryushe: no i dont have the directory open in the gui or terminal
[01:03] <ryushe> FishieFoo: last time I checked, Transmission allows you to prioritize
[01:03] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  maybe recovery mode ?
[01:03] <ryushe> TecR0c: very sure?
[01:03] <TecR0c> ryushe: it says  the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1))
[01:04] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: Oh, and did you restart the x session "ctrl + alt + backspace"  And yes run nvidia-settings in a bash prompt.
[01:04] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: You shouldn't need to go to recovery mode.
[01:04] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0, what is the exact command i want to use ?
[01:04] <LjL> adub: uhm i'm sorry but i just have to go now, you may have to edit debian/zoneminder.substvars and change the dependencies...
[01:04] <freetown> hi all, what is the kvm channel again? #ubuntu-vrit?
[01:04] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  cant do anything else ... wont drop into tty
[01:05] <zetheroo> anyone?
[01:05] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: First logout and back in, if you can to restart x.
[01:05] <Kumool> freetown: kvm?
[01:05] <FishieFoo> ryushe: I can't click on any of the files to set any priorities.
[01:05] <zetheroo> please help ....  i just now rebooted form a kernel panic .... what do I do? ... where do I find the cause?
[01:05] <adub> LjL dern
[01:05] <adub> lol
[01:05] <ryushe> TecR0c: running either lsof or fuser should show you who or what is using the disk right now, but try unmounting again first
[01:05] <freetown> Kumool, virtualization module
[01:05] <Kumool> zetheroo: run memtest
[01:06] <ryushe> FishieFoo: looked in the inspector?
[01:06] <zetheroo> Kumool: what about logs
[01:06] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  done
[01:06] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[01:06] <shadowwulf> mir then what
[01:06] <FishieFoo> ryushe: what is that?
[01:06] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  then what
[01:06] <Kumool> zetheroo: memtest first
[01:06] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: Open "gnome-terminal".
[01:06] <TecR0c> ryushe: i have tried running it again now luck.
[01:07] <ryushe> FishieFoo: see the details button?
[01:07] <freetown> hmm....i might get a answer here before the cows come home. Is there virtio support in Hardy?
[01:07] <FishieFoo> ryushe: no. only properties.
[01:07] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  as i said ... i cant see the text to navigate to the terimal in the menu
[01:07] <TecR0c> lsfob shows me heaps of content =/
[01:08] <ryushe> TecR0c: then try this: 'umount -f /mnt/media'
[01:08] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: What can you use?
[01:08] <zetheroo> Kumool: what will a memtest do?
[01:08] <ryushe> FishieFoo: when I add a torrent to transmission there is the first screen where you can select which files you want, which also lists priority
[01:08] <Kumool> it will test ur ram zetheroo
[01:09] <zetheroo> Kumool: and how will that help solve the issue?
[01:09] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  recovery mode and thats bout it ... cant see but for false colors on logon and desktop ... i can see that it has booted into it ... but i cant see anything to navigate through the desktop ... its like all the white was taken off
[01:09] <SanoSan> How do I get .exes to default open with Wine?  So I don't have to keep going though Open With crap.
[01:09] <Kumool> zetheroo: kernel panic happens because of a f'ed up kernel or ram issues... altho it depends on what the error was
[01:09] <FishieFoo> ryushe: huh... I don't have any of that. something is wrong...
[01:10] <ryushe> FishieFoo: and when it's already running, clicking on an active torrent and then clicking the big blue Details icon top-right of the window will show you a details window for that specific torrent. there again you can change priority
[01:10] <xintruder> Hi
[01:10] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: So you have the GNOME desktop?
[01:10] <Kumool> SanoSan: properties
[01:10] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  i do
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> SanoSan: do open with, but select to remember the pairing of app and file type
[01:10] <Kumool> SanoSan: learn to use right click better :)
[01:10] <ConstantineXVI> FishieFoo: select a torrent, open the inspector.  click over to the files, and r-click to select priority
[01:10] <ryushe> FishieFoo: this is what it should look like: http://www.transmissionbt.com/images/screenshots/gtk-large.png
[01:10] <zetheroo> Kumool: well even if it says something negative about my RAM I don't think I would replace my RAM to make Intrepid work ... ha ... I mean Hardy works fine as does Win XP Pro
[01:10] <xintruder> I cant view movies in youtube mozzila, although I downloaded all three suggested plugins (addons). who can help me?
[01:10] <SanoSan> Kumool: :P
[01:10] <zetheroo> Kumool: so I don't see why I should do a memtest ....
[01:11] <Tekno> sudo apt-get install flash-plugin-nonfree
[01:11] <Tekno> did that?
[01:11] <ryushe> TecR0c: any joy?
[01:11] <ConstantineXVI> FishieFoo: err, by inspector i mean "torrent details"
[01:11] <Kumool> zetheroo: it will f up sooner or later its better to know now than paying some mechanic 50 bucks for something you could have avoided sooner
[01:11] <TecR0c> ryushe: i still get the same message.
[01:11] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: Alright, alt + F2 should get you a prompt.  Type nvidia-settings, and read the "NVIDIA Driver Version".
[01:11] <ActionParsnip> Tekno: you on 32bit or 64bit?
[01:12] <ryushe> TecR0c: that's very odd
[01:12] <ConstantineXVI> FishieFoo: that do it?
[01:12] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  goes to a blank screen and monitor goes to standby
[01:12] <xintruder> help ?
[01:12] <TecR0c> its just my luck lol
[01:12] <ryushe> TecR0c: the only other way to fix a stubborn mount that I know of is rebooting :(
[01:12] <zetheroo> Kumool: what do you mean? The RAM must be fine ... why would Hardy work fine and Intrepid cough up its spleen with the same RAM?
[01:12] <SanoSan> Any known issues with running Photoshop CS2 under Wine?
[01:12] <Kumool> zetheroo: then use an older kernel
[01:13] <Kumool> zetheroo: just run the test it wont hurt
[01:13] <zetheroo> Kumool: ha ... but it won't help either ...
[01:13] <TecR0c> ryushe: thanks anyways :P atleast i am learning
[01:13] <FishieFoo> ConstantineXVI: I don't have any "details" anywhere. uhm... if I remove the torrent from the app, will it dump the 850MB of progress it's made into the destination folder, or is it just going to lose it? I checked the hidden .transmission folder and there's nothing in there.
[01:13] <ActionParsnip> SanoSan: http://luiscosio.com/how-to-adobe-photoshop-cs2-on-ubuntu-10-steps
[01:13] <ActionParsnip> SanoSan: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=2631
[01:13] <Kumool> zetheroo: it will help if an error occurs if an error doesnt occur then the problem is buntu
[01:14] <SanoSan> ActionParsnip:  Ahh, thank you ^_^
[01:14] <ConstantineXVI> FishieFoo: there's a blue "i" icon in the transmission toolbar.  select your torrent and click that
[01:14] <ryushe> TecR0c: for further learning, google up on 'mounting NTFS drives Ubuntu' should return a lot of hits for you to read ;)
[01:14]  * Arsdoff failed to install ubuntu eee
[01:14] <TecR0c> ok, no worries.
[01:14] <FishieFoo> ConstantineXVI: nope. not on mine.
[01:14] <zetheroo> Kumool: don't worry ... I have been told by a few ppl to do a memtest ... but the logic in that is somehow lost .... if there is an error I would still say it is an issue with Ubuntu Intrepid since Hardy works despite the RAM as does Win XP Pro ... see?
[01:14] <ConstantineXVI> FishieFoo: no toolbar?
[01:15] <ryushe> ConstantineXVI: there's something wrong with his setup for some reason, that's what I mentioned earlier as well ;)
[01:15] <zetheroo> Kumool: I have 3 GB of RAM ... how long would a memtest take?
[01:15] <FishieFoo> ConstantineXVI: my toolbar consists of add, start, stop, remove, properties, and preferences.
[01:15] <ConstantineXVI> FishieFoo: properties
[01:15] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: Sorry man, your past my experience.  Get to another system if you can (maybe in a dual boot) and search for linux or ubuntu and nvidia.
[01:15] <Kumool> zetheroo: about an hour i suppose
[01:15] <shadowwulf> MiraiWarren0_0,  ok thanks
[01:16] <MiraiWarren0_0> shadowwulf: No sweat.
[01:16] <FishieFoo> ConstantineXVI: yeah. properties has two tabs. general, and files. I can't select any of the files in the files tab. no right or left click, nothing.
[01:16] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: depends on ram latency and cpu speed
[01:16] <Kumool> yes
[01:16] <The_Dr> Hi I am trying to boot the 8.10 live dvd but after the bootsplash it kicks me to the command line and I get ubuntu@ubuntu:~
[01:16] <zetheroo> ActionParsnip: C2D T9300 2.5GHZ
[01:16] <FishieFoo> I think something's wrong with my copy of Transmission. It seems to be stunted.
[01:17] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: and what latencys does your ram have?
[01:17] <ryushe> FishieFoo: it does seem so, saw the screenshot I posted?
[01:17] <zetheroo> ActionParsnip: latency? ...
[01:17] <ardchoille> How do I stop evolution from putting an icon in the tray upon email receive?
[01:17] <FishieFoo> ryushe: yes. mine's sort of like that, but without any of that priority stuff or checkboxes.
[01:17] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: the read, write and read+write speed
[01:17] <FiremanEd>  .
[01:18] <FishieFoo> ryushe: and the progress bar is different as well. mine are orange and have no text.
[01:18] <xintruder> why can't I view youtube after a clean install of ubuntu ?
[01:18] <Arsdoff> How do I get my Eee Pc to recognize the usb drive on boot?  The laptop is now useless in Xubuntu because I messed up the screen setings, it is now unreadable when I boot, and I do not think I can navigate to make the interface work  again.  I want to put the installer on my USB drive using my other computer, put it in the usb slot, boot the Eee Pc, and have it install.  How can this happen?
[01:18] <ActionParsnip> xintruder: you need to install flash
[01:18] <ardchoille> !flash | xintruder
[01:18] <Kumool> xintruder: ur blind
[01:18] <ConstantineXVI> FishieFoo: what version of ubuntu are you on?
[01:18] <zetheroo> ActionParsnip:  ummm ... this is a Thinkad R61 ....
[01:19] <ryushe> FishieFoo: the orange is probably your system color theme or something. I would try to reinstall Transmission via package manager
[01:19] <FishieFoo> If I remove my torrent from the client, will it dump the 850MB it's downloaded so far into the destination folder, or is it just going to lose it? because I can't find it in the hidden .transmission folder.
[01:19] <exodus_ms> yeah... thats helpful
[01:19] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: its probably some budget stuff, coyuld take an hour or so
[01:19] <xintruder> Kumool: I am not.
[01:19] <julio> Estoucom  erros no postfix, mailfx e aide durante instalação do xmaxima(5.9.2.ubuntu1).
[01:19] <xintruder> Kumool: Whats wrong with blind people?
[01:19] <ActionParsnip> !usb | Arsdoff
[01:19] <ConstantineXVI> FishieFoo: it should be safe as long as you dont hit remove data
[01:19] <The_Dr> Hi I am trying to boot the 8.10 live dvd but after the bootsplash it kicks me to the command line and I get ubuntu@ubuntu:~

[01:20] <exodus_ms> !repeat

[01:20] <FishieFoo> ryushe: too late. it's gone. no files.
[01:20] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone tell me how can i add times new roman to open office writer?
[01:20] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: mid range then, should be ok
[01:20] <israel> #gstreamer
[01:20] <ConstantineXVI> Pirate_Hunter: install "msttcorefonts"
[01:21] <zetheroo> ActionParsnip: isn't that like 667MHZ ? ...
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> !fonts | Pirate_Hunter
[01:21] <FishieFoo> ConstantineXVI: I guess you were wrong. :(
[01:21] <ConstantineXVI> !info msttcorefonts
[01:21] <ryushe> Pirate_Hunter: insta llmsttcorefonts
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> zetheroo: you can get high (poor) latency ram at 1067mhz
[01:21] <Pirate_Hunter> ConstantineXVI, ActionParsnip, ryushe, ty
[01:21] <Kumool> Pirate_Hunter: why would you want such ugly fonts?
[01:21] <FishieFoo> ... this is strange. I reopened the file and it says I've still downloaded 850MB...
[01:22] <exodus_ms> startx
[01:22] <Pirate_Hunter> Kumool: ugly is a matter of opinion and i need those for work
[01:22] <ryushe> FishieFoo: Transmission still lacks the info or details button?
[01:22] <Kumool> Pirate_Hunter: so work is ugly? got it :)
[01:23] <Pirate_Hunter> Kumool, :D
[01:23] <zetheroo> ActionParsnip - Kumool: ok so I am going to do the memtest so I can move on to other things ... :)
[01:23] <__BSD__> Is anyone here really good with xtightvncserver? pm me please
[01:23] <exodus_ms> The_Dr, did you try startx
[01:23] <zetheroo> ActionParsnip - Kumool: be back in an hour
[01:23] <Kumool> ill be sure to not be here :)
[01:24] <ActionParsnip> __BSD__: ask in the room
[01:24] <__BSD__> i did , but its sorta off-topi ActionParsnip
[01:24] <__BSD__> off-topic*
[01:24] <itai_michaelson> is there a way to toggle between gui and command line without having to reboot?
[01:24] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: open a terminal
[01:24] <FishieFoo> ryushe: yup. same as before.
[01:25] <itai_michaelson> ardchoille, thats not what i mean
[01:25] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: ctrl+alt+F1-6
[01:25] <Kumool> ??
[01:25] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: or do ctrl+alt+f1 (ctrl+alt+f7 to come back to the desktop)
[01:25] <Eurysilas> OK, so I finally got Intrepid working with my Intel graphics (problem was Compiz). However, I STILL without a Shut down screen, and logging off still results in a blank screen (or restarting X). Any ideas?
[01:25] <ryushe> FishieFoo: in that case, see if reinstalling it via your package manager helps
[01:25] <itai_michaelson> archangelpetro, if i do that now will xchat get shut?
[01:26] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: no
[01:26] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: not with ctrl_alt+f1, no
[01:26] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: itl close
[01:26] <test34> Anyone seen a Bluez v4.21 Ubuntu package?
[01:26] <ardchoille> Kumool: xchat won't close
[01:26] <Kumool> ardchoille: prove it!
[01:26] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, not sure i understand. is there a way to get rid of X altogether ,but bring it back when needed?
[01:27] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: it depends on what you mean by "get rid of"
[01:27] <darth10> itai_michaelson, press alt+f1 to close....alt+f7 to startx
[01:27] <darth10> dat will completely shut it down
[01:27] <Kumool> darth10: thats very confusing
[01:27] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, i mean free the resources used by X
[01:27] <darth10> hah
[01:27] <paulo> #ubuntu-es
[01:27] <darth10> dats a bigger problem :P
[01:28] <FishieFoo> ryushe: nope. same as before.
[01:28] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: no, it won't. ctrl+atl+f1 just switches you to tty1
[01:28] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: for that ur better off killing gdm and x
[01:28] <FishieFoo> ryushe: is there something wrong with my Ubuntu?
[01:28] <test34> I thought if I waited all those years that bluetooth would be usable..... both in Windows and Linux... apparently not
[01:28] <xintruder> i installed the flash for mozila, now I only get to see a black screen in youtube. any ideas?
[01:28] <Kumool> FishieFoo: problably
[01:28] <exodus_ms> yeah... bluetooth sucks in winblows
[01:28] <__BSD__> window 30
[01:28] <__BSD__> oops
[01:28] <Kumool> test34: wait a bit more
[01:29] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, i'm running xdm but i'm willing to uninstall it as it serves no prupose really
[01:29] <Kumool> test34: 3 years wont hurt
[01:29] <ryushe> FishieFoo: I would install XP and see if that fixes your issue (I kid, I kid) :)
[01:29] <ryushe> FishieFoo: what version of Ubuntu?
[01:29] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: lol
[01:29] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, so i uninstall xdm and then ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[01:29] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: you like tty's a lot
[01:30] <test34> kumool.. well.. they are pretty slow..... specially the ones that get paid
[01:30] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: why do you want to uninstall xdm?
[01:30] <FishieFoo> ryushe: why can't I copy the text from my "about Ubuntu" page? >:P it's 7.10 gutsy gibbon?? my mom updates this thing. how can it not have updated ubuntu??
[01:30] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, i don't plan on rebooting often so why do i need it?
[01:30] <kansan> looking for a php interepter for ubuntu hardy.... how do i get such a beast?  i already have php-cli but it seems to only be good for running existing php files
[01:30] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: just open a terminal itl do the same
[01:31] <Eurysilas> OK, so I finally got Intrepid working with my Intel graphics (problem was Compiz). However, I STILL without a Shut down screen, and logging off still results in a blank screen (or restarting X). Any ideas?
[01:31] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: it doesnt just handle the boot startup...
[01:31] <ryushe> FishieFoo: what version of Transmission you running?
[01:31] <xintruder> can anyone help me pleasE?
[01:31] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, what do you mean, i'm running a low specs server so i dont want to waste resources , but sometimes i need firefox and the likes
[01:31] <solexious> Ive been asked to dig some thing to check my nameservers, but I dont have dig/cant find it in the repositorys, any hints?
[01:32] <FishieFoo> ryushe: there's no way to check the version. no "about" button for Transmission.
[01:32] <ryushe> FishieFoo: there's something wrong there. Is there no 'Help' menu option at the top?
[01:32] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: if ur fixed on it then just kill it tho dont go about saying theres problems with ur pc later
[01:32] <FishieFoo> ryushe: nope.
[01:32] <ryushe> FishieFoo: heh
[01:32] <ryushe> FishieFoo: interesting ;)
[01:32] <test34> solexious: you probably dont have a standard ubuntu distrib ??
[01:32] <FishieFoo> ryushe: only "file". nothing else.
[01:32] <Kumool> xintruder: ask
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> FishieFoo: sure there is, help/about is on transmission
[01:33] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, ok thanks. i wont complain. promise :-)
[01:33] <xintruder> i installed the flash for mozila, now I only get to see a black screen in youtube. any ideas?
[01:33] <FishieFoo> IndyGunFreak: not on ine.
[01:33] <FishieFoo> IndyGunFreak: not on mine.
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> FishieFoo: well thats pretty incredible.
[01:33] <ardchoille> How do I stop evolution from putting an icon in the tray upon receiving email?
[01:33] <test34> any website that raise money for some specific linux features ?
[01:33] <FishieFoo> IndyGunFreak: it's seriously messed up.
[01:34] <ryushe> FishieFoo: in that case, I would recommend purging the package and reinstalling it brand new
[01:34] <Kumool> ardchoille: uninstall it
[01:34] <Kumool> :P
[01:34] <FishieFoo> ryushe: how do I do that? which package?
[01:34] <ardchoille> Kumool: if you can't be helpful, please leave. The folks here are trying to solve issues and your comments aren't helping much.
[01:35] <Raylz>  im trying to mount an iso, but im getting: CD-ROM is NOT in ISO 9660 format
[01:35] <itai_michaelson> darth10, alt+F1 doesn't kill x for me, is that  gnome specific ?
[01:35] <test34> itai_michaelson: ctrl-atl-backspace
[01:35] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: it doesnt kill gnome it just goes to a tty
[01:35] <Raylz> i mount with sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop image.iso /media/isoimage
[01:36] <xintruder> Kumool: you dont know?
[01:36] <bsusa> hello
[01:36] <itai_michaelson> test34, ctrl-alt-back brings me to XDM, i want something that will send me to tty and kill X
[01:36] <Kumool> ardchoille: if you dont see an option for it to halt it then
[01:36] <bsusa> could someone please assist me in setting up a bluetooth mouse in mythbuntu?
[01:36] <ryushe> FishieFoo: 'dpkg --purge transmission-common' and 'dpkg --purge transmission-gtk' as root or as sudo, then reinstall said packages
[01:36] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, so how do i kill x and xdm and get to tty?
[01:36] <Pirate_Hunter> does anyone know where is the option to insert a new page in open office writer? is the only way to do so through page break?
[01:37] <Eurysilas> OK, so I finally got Intrepid working with my Intel graphics (problem was Compiz). However, I'm STILL without a Shut down screen, and logging off still results in a blank screen (or restarting X). Any ideas?
[01:37] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: you don't have to kill anything, just do ctrl+alt+f1 (or f2, or f3, etc)
[01:37] <Pirate_Hunter> itai_michaelson: tty 1-6 ctrl+alt+f1 to f6
[01:37] <FishieFoo> ryushe: I'm pretty sure I first installed it just this afternoon. I'm not sure how it could have gotten messed up before I installed it...
[01:37] <Kumool> xintruder: not really all that comes up to me is a driver problem... which couldnt be... :P
[01:37] <test34> itai_michaelson: do you mean gdm
[01:38] <ryushe> FishieFoo: that's a fair point
[01:38] <itai_michaelson> test34, no i mean XDM
[01:38] <bsusa> i installed the bluetooth software but still i cant find a bluetooth setup in mythbuntu
[01:38] <itai_michaelson> ardchoille, but i do want to kill X
[01:38] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: it won't kill x
[01:38] <Kumool> ardchoille: he wants to free resources so killing everything is the only solution
[01:38] <test34> itai_michaelson: ps aux | grep xdm | kill -9 xdm_pid ?
[01:38] <Eurysilas> itai_michaelson: I know you probably already tried this, but....what about dropping to root consol in  a recovery session, and uninstalling X?
[01:38] <bonhoffer> i need to copy the text from a pdf in ubuntu -- it doesn't seem that xpdf let's me copy
[01:38] <ardchoille> Kumool: that's not what he just said
[01:39] <Kumool> ardchoille: thats what he said a couple mins ago
[01:39] <exodus_ms> ardchoille, Open Evolution and select:
[01:39] <exodus_ms> edit/plugins uncheck the plugin "Mail Notification". This should stop the notification box from opening from the Panel (task bar)..
[01:39] <bonhoffer> lets me copy (sorry)
[01:39] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: if you want to stop x: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (or xdm)
[01:39] <FishieFoo> ryushe: maybe i should wait for this system update to finish... maybe that will miraculously solve this problem. I don't understand how Ubuntu could be version 7.10 if my mom's been running the update, unless she's been mistaken. or unless it's been buggered up, like she shut it down or its refusing to update.
[01:39] <GodfatherofEire> Anybody know of a way to modify the size of the icons in the main menu?
[01:39] <ryushe> FishieFoo: see if this helps at all. It desribes how to get latest transmission in Ubuntu: http://forum.transmissionbt.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=5604
[01:39] <itai_michaelson> Eurysilas, because i need X sometimes, i want to toggle between X and no X
[01:39] <test34> bonhoffer: some pdf are images
[01:39] <pumpkinseed> anyone know why it takes so long for the new version of the gimp to get on apt-get ?
[01:39] <Eurysilas> itai: Ah......That's right. Sorry. My mistake. ;)
[01:40] <Arsdoff> How do I reset screen settings from safe mode?
[01:40] <itai_michaelson> ardchoille, thats what i want! so back to x will be startx ,right?
[01:40] <Eurysilas> *itai_michaelson
[01:40] <Kumool> pumpkinseed: because apt-get doesnt get gimp?
[01:40] <test34> bonhoffer: images of text that is... you need an Optical character recognition software
[01:40] <nick_______> hello, my wireless stopped working
[01:40] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start (or xdm)
[01:40] <ardchoille> exodus_ms: Ah, found it thank you very much. There's also ways to configure that plugin too :)
[01:41] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: you know... swap and ram exist for a reason you know...
[01:41] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, sadly I don't have much of neither
[01:41] <itai_michaelson> ardchoille, thank you very much
[01:41] <exodus_ms> ardchoille, wasnt sure exactly what you were asking :)
[01:41] <ardchoille> itai_michaelson: yw :)
[01:41] <Kumool> itai_michaelson: how do you hope to have xchat oopen when you dont have x?
[01:42] <ardchoille> exodus_ms: you fixed it :)
[01:42] <exodus_ms> ardchoille, cool
[01:42] <nick_______> Anyone think they can help?
[01:42] <Pirate_Hunter> does anyone know where is the option to insert a new page in open office writer? is the only way to do so through page break?
[01:42] <donnyw> hello all
[01:42] <nick_______> Or is there a help chat I can join
[01:43] <itai_michaelson> Kumool, i rarely need x, so i want to keep the server X free  most of the time, but sometimes i need to run a graphic programme so i want to be able to toggle back into x.
[01:43] <FishieFoo> .... my synaptic package manager only had 3 transmission packages available, not 4...
[01:43] <GodfatherofEire>  nick_______ Before anybody can help you, you gotta tell us what the problem is first
[01:43] <xintruder> i installed the flash for mozila, now I only get to see a black screen in youtube. any ideas?#
[01:43] <FishieFoo> bah. I can't even check it while the system update is downloading.
[01:44] <wnstn> Anyone know how to get a M-AUDIO Oxygen 8 usb midi keyboard working? I googled and I gather I have to flash the firmware, I got the firmware loader through synaptic but I can't find the new firmware.
[01:44] <nick_______> My wireless stopped working. This chat moves kind of fast
[01:44] <GodfatherofEire> nick_______ but how did it stop working, like, after what, did you update your system, etc?
[01:45] <nick_______> After I restarted
[01:45] <nick_______> I had been playing Tremulous, then it sort of froze.
[01:45] <GodfatherofEire> Did you do a hard reboot?
[01:46] <nick_______> no
[01:46] <nick_______> wait yes
[01:46] <nick_______> had to
[01:46] <GodfatherofEire> I figured.
[01:47] <Eurysilas> So, no one knows about why my shutdown screen is blank?
[01:48] <test34> Eurysilas: isnt it a good thing that the screen gets blank when you shutdown
[01:48] <ardchoille> Eurysilas: you're using nvidia with installed drivers?
[01:49] <Eurysilas> test34: No. I need to see when the little progress bar is finished, so I can manually turn the thing off (APM is broken, evidently).
[01:50] <Arsdoff> my eeepc is screwed until I can see what I'm doing.  I'm running xfce(sp?) and the interface is scrambled.  I need to reset the screen settings without being able to use the GUI.  Can this be done?
[01:50] <test34> Eurysilas: look at your HD light if you can't figure out the problem
[01:50] <Eurysilas> ardchoille: Nope. Though, I gather they've had trouble as well. I use intel drivers (I'm integrated).
[01:50] <ardchoille> Eurysilas: ah, ok, I had that problem with the nvidia 173 driver
[01:51] <ardchoille> Arsdoff: for xfce you should probably ask in #xubuntu
[01:51] <bsusa> hello
[01:51] <Arsdoff> thx
[01:51] <bsusa> could someone please assist me in setting up a bluetooth mouse in mythbuntu?
[01:51] <Kumool> theres mythbuntu?
[01:51] <ardchoille> yes
[01:51] <Kumool> O_o? sry for my cluelessness
[01:52] <Kumool> does it come with lots of sherlock holmes books?
[01:52] <test34> Arsdoff: try ctrl-alt-f1 and edit xorg.conf.. then restart X
[01:52] <barry_> in ubuntu 8.10 do we have to install preload etc to speed things up? or is it all included now?
[01:53] <wnstn> Eurysilas: try opening a terminal and typing: sudo shutdown -h now
[01:53] <Kumool> or mayb a bible :P
[01:53] <dg_> hi  everyone
[01:54] <nick_______> Soooo....
[01:54] <Eurysilas> Anyway, I was guessing that it had something to do with changing resolutions, so I was going to edit whatever files necessary to keep it from switching to a new resolution. Unfortunately, for USplash (the program I THINK that controls the shutdown and boot-up screens), you have to mess with  a boot loader file in the process, and I've no clue on what to edit when it comes to the X server restarting (xorg.conf, maybe? With this new X Server, who knows).
[01:54] <wnstn> Nick did you try restarting your wireless router?
[01:54] <nick_______> Can anyone help me?
[01:54] <nick_______> Yeah
[01:54] <fsckr> ok i just installed ubuntu 8.10 and tried to enable nvidia drivers 177 within the restricted drivers.  Did a reboot and xorg failed saying no devices found.  I have also had this same problem with archlinux any suggestions?
[01:55] <nick_______> IT doesn't work at other homes
[01:55] <firefly2442> I just setup an SVN repo but when I try to import a project I get "permission denied", what permissions do I need to set the folder to?
[01:55] <wnstn> nick______ did you try restarting your wireless router?
[01:55] <nick_______> yeah
[01:55] <nick_______> I just said
[01:55] <Arsdoff> b                                                                                ...
[01:55] <Arsdoff> ...                                                                                ...
[01:55] <Arsdoff> ...                                                                                ...
[01:55] <FloodBot2> Arsdoff: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:56] <Eurysilas> wnstn: Oh? I'd rather have it work from the graphical menu. This is one of those things that doesn't strictly HAVE to be fixed, but would be NICE to.
[01:56] <Arsdoff> I did not do that on purpose
[01:56] <fatfigueroa> Buenas
[01:56] <Arsdoff> exit xorg.conf failed
[01:56] <DarkKnight> can nyone help....i m not able to delete certain files...it says permission denied
[01:57] <ardchoille> !sudo | DarkKnight
[01:57] <wnstn> Eurysilas: Sorry you sounded like you were in a hurry. Also it would list the process as it's shutting them down so you may be able to spot the problem from there. :)
[01:57] <Tyler-J-B> ok, I installed the proprietary ATI drivers (fglrx), I got the resolution I want, but I can't seem to get the proper refresh rate. Ubuntu 8.10, ATI Radeon Xpress 200, Dell P991 19"
[01:57] <ty> sup
[01:58] <ty> whats the subject
[01:58] <Tyler-J-B> If I can get help with configuring the refresh rate, that would be great. (since I can no longer configure it from xorg.conf)
[01:58] <DarkKnight> ardchoille; the files are in my pendrive and when i use the mouse and click on  them then it says permission denied
[01:58] <Eurysilas> wnstn: Ah. OK. ;)
[01:58] <exodus_ms> DarkKnight, what file are you trying to delete?
[01:59] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: ok, you need to check the permissions of the mount point or see if the drive is mounted read only (ro)
[01:59] <DarkKnight> exodus_ms; certain virus infected files; the files contain the elements of a web page; that is wen u save a webpage, along with with a webpage a files is also created related to the webpage
[01:59] <nick_______> So anyway, i've had problems with this wifi card before.
[01:59] <DarkKnight> ardchoille; how do i do that
[01:59] <ty> bye
[02:00] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: to check how the drive is mounted, open a terminal and type: mount
[02:00] <nick_______> It wouldn't work with Hardy Heron, or Debian or Lenny.
[02:01] <nick_______> I was suprized when it worked with 8.10, but then it stopped
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> nick_______: what wifi card is it?
[02:02] <nick_______> rtl8187b
[02:02] <nick_______> in a gateway m-1624 laptop
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> !realtek | nick_______
[02:04] <DarkKnight> ardchoille; i couldn't make out anything that was given in the terminal
[02:04] <nick_______> that is for Hardy Heron
[02:04] <nick_______> Intrepid Ibex is supposed to work out of the box
[02:05] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: Care to pastebin the output of mount?
[02:05] <ardchoille> !paste
[02:05] <MrCollins> I am in intrepid, and I *had* sound working in firefox, using flash youtube, nickjr.com etc and I rebooted, what changed on the reboot? Can someone please help?
[02:07] <DarkKnight> ardchoille;http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m15d6e905
[02:07] <mojave3> hi.  i'm using ubuntu 8.10 and have installed openoffice3.0  When i startup ooffice, the "base" or database application is grayed out and not available.  Is there a way to add support for Base?  thx
[02:07] <donnyw> exit
[02:07] <donnyw> oops
[02:08] <pumpkinseed> anyone know why it takes so long for the new version of the gimp to get on apt-get ?
[02:08] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: ok, they all say "rw" which is read/write. what is the mountpoint of that thumb drive?
[02:08] <Mecha25> ha! mac->ubuntu+ssh+screen+irssi. I'm using 2 computers in different states, boy do I love being a geek
[02:09] <nick_______> And it did work when I first installed Ubuntu, But then it stopped
[02:09] <DarkKnight> ardchoille;actually i m a newbie...so i dont know how to check  wats the mount point
[02:09] <SkinnYPuP__> whats the correct syntax to fsck a ext3 partition on /dev/hda7/ ? Supposed to run unmounted right?
[02:09] <Mecha25> can i at least get a "woot"?
[02:10] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: it looks like the last line, /media/disk Have you opened nautilus in that thumbdrive?
[02:10] <FearMoth> Hi, I just installed Ubuntu 8.10 Server on my server (Tyan Thunder K7X) onto an IDE drive. It installs fine, but once I reboot, GRUB messes up. In my GRUB config, root= is set as a UUID. I've tried root=/dev/sda1 and /dev/hda1 but nothing seems to boot. Does anyone know why I'm having this problem or how to fix it?
[02:10] <ASrock> what program should i use to be able to do a web cam chat with a friend via msn
[02:10] <DarkKnight> ardchoille; ya
[02:10] <nick_______> Maybe I should just reinstall...
[02:10] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: what does nautilus have in the Location bar?
[02:10] <DarkKnight> ardchoille; now i m able to delete in nautilus
[02:10] <Mecha25> eh, whatever.
[02:10] <Mecha25> !botsnack
[02:10] <Mecha25> peace
[02:10] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: so problem solved?
[02:11] <ss_> I've lost my OOo3 which I had installed from this repo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main
[02:11] <ss_>  can some one tell me how can i get back it, installing a single package gives dependency errors
[02:11] <DarkKnight> ardchoille; ya thanx......nick_________ was also helping me out simultaneoulsy
[02:11] <MrCollins> ardchoille, can u give me a hand
[02:11] <ardchoille> DarkKnight: ok, glad it's fixed :)
[02:11] <MrCollins> ardantus, when u havea min
[02:11] <Tyler-J-B> I would like to get help with configuring the refresh rate for my ATI
[02:11] <ardchoille> nick_______: thanks :)
[02:11] <nick_______> no problem
[02:11] <ardchoille> MrCollins: sure, I can try
[02:12] <pumpkinseed> anyone know why it takes so long for the new version of the gimp to get on apt-get ?
[02:12] <nick_______> So, I'm thinking I might just reinstall the system.
[02:12] <ardchoille> MrCollins: If it's the sound issue, I can't help, I don't use sound
[02:12] <pumpkinseed> i.e. apt-get has version 9.4 and the new version is 9.6
[02:13] <ardchoille> pumpkinseed: you won't see it, we only get bug fixes and security updates.. no new version after release
[02:13] <slinkeey> Hi
[02:13] <Windoze> Hi slinkeey.
[02:13] <MrCollins> ardc yeah its the sound issue
[02:13] <slinkeey> After a suspend my video jitter in 8.04 and 8.10....  What could this be
[02:13] <slinkeey> Everything is great up untill I suspend the PC
[02:14] <pumpkinseed> ardchoille - doesn't 9.6 have bug fixes from 9.4
[02:14] <ardchoille> MrCollins: have you done any kernel updates since the last time you rebooted? I;ve seen some folks saying that the last kernel upgrade messed with sound somehow
[02:14] <a34lkj2348dsf311> How do you set DHCP leases to be automatically entered in DNS?
[02:14] <ardchoille> pumpkinseed: no idea, just wanted to let you know to not count on seeing the new version
[02:14] <MrCollins> ardchoille, as a matter of fact, I did an update from the updater that appears in the top, sound WAS working, then I rebooted tonight and boom no sound
[02:15] <isleshocky77> I can't figure out why I can't get my external monitor to go to 1680x1050.  when I have xrandr do a print out it's only showing this as a max: maximum 2624 x 1024.  This worked under Kubuntu 8.04. I'm now just trying out Ubuntu 8.10 clean install
[02:15] <ardchoille> MrCollins: sounds like the new kernel messed with your sound. I can't help but that info will help you narrow the problem down
[02:15] <slinkeey> has anyone heard of video twitching after waking the computer from susped?
[02:15] <slinkeey> suspend
[02:16] <MrCollins> ardchoille, how do i check to see if i have the latest video card drivers
[02:16] <bsusa> hello
[02:16] <Windoze> Hello bsusa.
[02:16] <Jim_H> How do you set DHCP leases to be automatically entered in DNS?
[02:16] <ardchoille> MrCollins: update the system (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade) and you'll have the latest of stuff from the repos.
[02:16] <bsusa> could someone please assist me in setting up a bluetooth mouse in mythbuntu?
[02:17] <bsusa> hello Windoze
[02:17] <Windoze> Hello bsusa.
[02:17] <linux29684> does anyone know when bluetooth will be fixed on intrepid?
[02:17] <Jim_H> Is there a channel to ask DNS or DHCP questions
[02:18] <MrCollins> ardchoille, its all up to date
[02:18] <test34> linux29684: let me know if you find out
[02:18] <pumpkinseed> imho: this is a big problem with linux in general. People have to go searching for repositories because most application websites simply tell you to go to synaptec to get their app. Additionally, users are always hit with "but you can always compile the source". But that is always a big fat pain in the arse...
[02:18] <MrCollins> ardchoille, how do I check to see if I am using 3d acceleration in my games like open arena etc?
[02:18] <H4wK> hello... anyone know where i found satanic theme for ubuntu 7.10
[02:18] <Windoze> Hello H4wK.
[02:18] <ardchoille> MrCollins: then you have the latest of your software from the repos, can't get any more up to date than that
[02:19] <Jim_H> Is there a channel to ask DNS or DHCP questions
[02:19] <pumpkinseed> if it works at all
[02:19] <ardchoille> MrCollins: Not sure how to do that
[02:19] <linux29684> test34: I wish someone would know the answer to that, it seems everyone can not get bluetooth working on intrepid
[02:20] <test34> ardchoille: the repository usually don't have the latest version of anything
[02:20] <pumpkinseed> test34: damn straight
[02:20] <test34> ardchoille: I'm not saying that isnt for a good reason, because their might be more bugs in the new version
[02:20] <gnutron> Jim_H: dhclient should renew leases, DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf should remain the same. on hardy atleast.
[02:21] <ardchoille> test34: if you update from the repos, you will have the latest of what the repos contain, yes
[02:21] <linux29684> gnutron, how can i lock the resolv.conf so it no longer changes?
[02:21] <pumpkinseed> test34: very true. and I realize that too, but users should still have the option to get new versions
[02:21] <linux29684> a sudo chmod 444 /etc/resolv.conf does not work
[02:21] <test34> linux29684: I think the problem is that bt-audio became obsolete
[02:21] <Jim_H> gnutron, if a client joins a network and gets DHCP information, how can my DNS server automatically create an entry for that client ?
[02:21] <pumpkinseed> archoille: and the repos never have new versions of anything
[02:21] <Jim_H> gnutron, thank you for replying, btw
[02:21] <brainzcan> an1 else in here have the issue with wifi where as kubuntu actually gets a better signal than ubuntu?
[02:22] <brainzcan> wtf
[02:22] <gnutron> linux29684: that should need to be changed unless your ISP changed it's nameservers.
[02:22] <bsusa> could someone please assist me in setting up a bluetooth mouse in mythbuntu?
[02:22] <gnutron> linux29684: that should Not need to be changed unless your ISP changed it's nameservers. sorry
[02:22] <dr_willis> brainzcan,  i would have to wonder how you are doing the comparison. I dont see how thats even possible.
[02:22] <linux29684> theres a bug in kvpnc that keeps changing the dns servers
[02:22] <linux29684> i want to lock the resolv.conf
[02:22] <bsusa> i installed the bluetooth software but still i cant find a bluetooth setup in mythbuntu
[02:23] <ardchoille> hello
[02:23] <Windoze> Hello ardchoille.
[02:23] <gnutron> linux29684: I would avoid kvpnc, it should'nt do that
[02:23] <brainzcan> dr_willis - in know right, i thought the only difference was the KDE interface but no
[02:23] <keystr0k> I'm having a strange problem where when I print a test page FROM my printer, it prints great... when I try to print normally, or a test page via Ubuntu, nothing shows up... though the print head moves as if it was printing. Any ideas?
[02:23] <linux29684> gnutron: its the only software of its kind
[02:24] <dr_willis> brainzcan,  how are you 'testing' these speeds?
[02:24] <test34> pumpkinseed: you can alsways go from source.. or try to find the package somewhere on the web
[02:24] <red_> m
[02:24] <brainzcan> not only speeds but signal strengths
[02:24] <gnutron> linux29684: i'm not familiar with it, but it should not mess with nameservers.
[02:24] <linux29684> gnutron: anyway to lock the resolv.conf, the chmod 444 didn't work
[02:25] <dr_willis> linux29684,  use 'chattr +a' i think..
[02:25] <dr_willis> linux29684,  root user could alter any file reguardless of its mode.
[02:25] <gnutron> linux29684: I would'nt changed the permissions either, perhaps check with the developers website or documentation.
[02:25] <ardchoille> chattr -i  (makes the file imutable even to root)
[02:25] <brainzcan> dr_willis : yeah we put both on a laptop and trust me there is a difference but I don't know wtf it is other than the KDE which should have nothing to do with it.
[02:25] <linux29684> dr_willis: chattr: Operation not supported while reading flags on /etc/resolv.conf
[02:25] <zetheroo> ok I am back
[02:26] <zetheroo> did the memtest and no errors ...
[02:26] <zetheroo> what now?
[02:26] <dr_willis> linux29684,   it may be +i   like ardchoille  said.. I just woke up. :P
[02:26] <linux29684> dr_willis: same error
[02:26] <__BSD__> Does anyone know where the config file for xtightvncserver is located?
[02:27] <ardchoille> dr_willis: you are correct
[02:27] <mneptok> Windoze: hi
[02:27] <ardchoille> just type hello
[02:27] <Tekno> How do I disable cpu speed governor?
[02:27] <Tekno> ubuntu 8.10
[02:28] <jpastore> I can't get samba to start and I don't see anything in /var/log/messages or /var/log/samba/log.smbd is there anywhere else I can look?
[02:28] <mneptok> hello
[02:28] <ardchoille> mneptok: it was K-lined
[02:28] <gnutron> __BSD__: /etc should be the dir try sudo find /etc/ -name '*vnc*.conf'
[02:28] <mneptok> ardchoille: just saw that
[02:28] <mneptok> ardchoille: thanks
[02:28] <zetheroo> I rebooted from a kernel panic .. and did a memtest that came out with no errors ... so what now?
[02:28] <ardchoille> yw
[02:28] <Cteel> How can i see what version or ubuntu i have?
[02:29] <ardchoille> Cteel: lsb_release
[02:29] <__BSD__> gnutron: i looked there, no luck
[02:29] <darkhamm> where a can find a comparative between xine gstreamer and mplayer?
[02:29] <linux29684> zetheroo: try to restart the computer and start an older kernel version of ubuntu
[02:29] <ardchoille> Cteel: lsb_release -a
[02:29] <zetheroo> Cteel: System > Administration > System Monitor
[02:29] <sinbox> trying to help someone with a messed up display, if found the followng command on the ubuntu forum, can anyone telle me whether that is a good idea or not?  command is>> sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:29] <zetheroo> Cteel: then go to the System tab
[02:30] <linux29684> the ubuntu version should be in system --> about ubuntu, but its not
[02:30] <Cteel> 8.04 Thanks!
[02:30] <Tekno> What is lpd ?
[02:30] <zetheroo> linux29684: ummm ... why would I want to do that when I am trying to find out whats wrong
[02:30] <bdelin88> i like big butts and i can not lie
[02:30] <Tekno> in sysv-rc-conf
[02:30] <dr_willis> jpastore,  you can edit the smb.conf file and enable verbose logging/other logging features.. and restart sdamba with  sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[02:30] <dr_willis> jpastore,  you DID install samba? :P
[02:30] <zetheroo> linux29684: its been happening since upgrading to Intrepid
[02:30] <linux29684> zetheroo: these irc chats are logged, so people can search them on google
[02:31] <linux29684> dr_willis: any other suggestions to lock the resolv.conf? maybe a script to run upon bootup?
[02:31] <jpastore> dr_willis, yes it was working pre 8.10 upgrade
[02:31] <gnutron> __BSD__: did you build xtightvncserver or apy-get it
[02:31] <mneptok> bdelin88: that's nice, dear. have a juice box.
[02:31] <mneptok> *patpat*
[02:31] <jpastore> dr_willis, it's how I was getting files back and forth between my host OS and my vbox
[02:31] <zetheroo> linux29684: huh? .... how does that help me?
[02:31] <bdelin88> thanks!
 ive seen others lock that file with chattr,    You are doing it as root?
[02:32] <__BSD__> gnutron: apt-get
[02:32] <linux29684> as sudo
[02:32] <gnutron> __BSD__: try man xtightvncserver for related files, then search for them.
[02:32] <bdelin88> sudo i am the ruler of the world
[02:32] <linux29684> tried as root, same error
[02:32] <dr_willis> jpastore,  you do realize the virtualbox guest addons have a special way to 'share' a directory the virtual machine and host machine?
[02:32] <__BSD__> gnutron: would it be better to try to build it?
[02:32] <zetheroo> this is really getting to be a headache ... everyone seems to have a different solution to the same problem ... and none of them really work in this case ... ha
[02:32] <mneptok> bdelin88: you can stop now.
[02:32] <jpastore> dr_willis, no I was not aware of that...where do I do that?
[02:33] <binarymutant> is there anything I can use to scan documents besides xsane? it locks up on me at random points
[02:33] <dr_willis> jpastore,  at least i can that feature  with my linux box's as the guest os :)   and windows as my host OS.. not sure about the reverse
[02:33] <bdelin88> pfff...
[02:33] <bdelin88> no fun
[02:33] <linux29684> binarymutant: try the openoffice suite
[02:33] <gnutron> __BSD__: with any distro its wise to stick with pre-built packages, but it can probably be done.
[02:33] <dr_willis> jpastore,  virtualbox docs. and the ubuntu virtualbox  wiki/guide mention it.
[02:33] <Theeb> Hello, I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10 and i am trying to install the ATI driver for my radeon, and everytime i do "sudo aticonfig --initial"  i get "Segmentation fault" and it doesnt recognize the device
[02:33] <Jim_H> Is there a channel to ask DNS or DHCP questions
[02:33] <Jim_H> How do you set DHCP leases to be automatically entered in DNS?
[02:33] <jpastore> dr_willis, is that in the settings of vbox and I have to stop the box?
[02:33] <binarymutant> linux29684, do you know of anything else?
[02:34] <linux29684> binarymutant: i didn't get sane to work, but openoffice worked well; haven't tried any others
[02:34] <lbs> hi
[02:34] <binarymutant> thanks for the info linux29684
[02:34] <lbs> How to make the iTALC in ltsp-server can automatic display thin-client?
[02:34] <dr_willis> jpastore,  the vbox front end has a gui/interface to set up what directores are 'vbox shared' and then if the guest OS is linux, and you have the vbox addons installed. You  just mount the special location with mount command and the filetype of 'vboxfs' (i think)
[02:35] <SEXOMANIS> Enter text here...03970399
[02:35] <dnyy> Anyone know why ubuntu keeps telling me the wrong max resolution for my external monitor?
[02:35] <SEXOMANIS> 039a0391039d0395039d0391 03910393039f039803a10391039a0399 039103a0039f 039403a40391039c0391 039903a0039103a103a70399__
[02:35] <Theeb> any help with the "Segmentation fault" please?
[02:35] <meoblast001> how do you run mingw in ubuntu?
[02:35] <jpastore> dr_willis, I think I figured it out...booting it back up to see
[02:36] <Jim_H> How do you set DHCP leases to be automatically entered in DNS?
[02:36] <gnutron> Jim_H: is your network configured for dhcp?
[02:37] <linux29684> Jim_H: can you rephrase your question or give more details
[02:37] <Jim_H> gnutron, yes it is configured for dhcp
[02:37] <gnutron> Jim_H: im on hardy and networkmanager should handle all that.
[02:37] <losetheshizzle> i just lost my sound in the middle of watching a  flash video.. how do i begin troubleshooting this?  i have nvidia on a compaq f700
[02:37] <Jim_H> gnutron, I'm running a dhcp server and a dns server
[02:38] <Jim_H> gnutron, linux29684 when a client joins the network and is issued DHCP information, I want my DNS entries to update and create an entry for that client
[02:38] <linux29684> losttheshizzle: does your sound still work; can you play mp3's?
[02:39] <gnutron> Jim_H: ah....that's different, you need a networking wizard. perhaps it's a BIND issue.
[02:39] <pckchem> Theeb: Does installing the driver through the restricted drivers manager not work?
[02:39] <losetheshizzle> linux29684: no, when i go to test sounds nothing happens.. no startup sound.. nada
[02:39] <linux29684> Jim_H: I don't know the answer; i might guess run a script on the router
[02:39] <Theeb> pckchem, no it doesnt
[02:39] <Jim_H> gnutron, linux29684 thank you for your replies - I'll keep searching
[02:39] <linux29684> losttheshizzle: have you tried to reboot; i know the compaq f700 series have had some trouble with audio in the past
[02:39] <pckchem> Theeb, what error do you get when you attempt to install. Same segmentation fault error?
[02:40] <Jim_H> gnutron, linux29684 one other thing - when I set up dns/dhcp on a windows machine it does exactly what i'm asking
[02:40] <exodus_ms> Theeb, sounds like a bug in xorg?
[02:40] <bsusa> what is the longest ps/2 cable that can be used for a mouse or a keyboard?
[02:40] <Jim_H> gnutron, linux29684 if my machine name is ubuntu-client and i join the network, I can suddenly type "nslookup ubuntu-client" and it will show
[02:41] <Jim_H> gnutron, linux29684 "ubuntu-client.domainname.com" and the associated IP address
[02:41] <Jim_H> gnutron, linux29684 are you guys familiar with that ?
[02:41] <Theeb> pckchem, everytime i do "sudo aticonfig --initial". when i reboot, it says no device detected
[02:41] <losetheshizzle> linux29684: yes, multiple times with no luck.. this happened after setting up a us-122 audio interface yesterday.. but the problem didn't crop up until today.. not sure if the us-122 installation is related.. when the sound stopped working it got stuck in a "sound loop"... sounded like a dsp resource bug..
[02:41] <Theeb> exodus_ms, how do i fix the xorg?
[02:41] <linux29684> Jim_H: i know in linux the hostname is editable in /etc/hostname for each client computer; you can also change the computer names by mac addresses on most routers
[02:41] <DarkKnight> why is it that certain files on my pendrive have a lock mark on top of irt
[02:42] <pckchem> Theeb, try this http://paste.ubuntu.com/79097/
[02:42] <DarkKnight> why is it that certain files on my pendrive have a lock mark on top of it
[02:42] <linux29684> losttheshizzle: maybe try to send /dev/random data into the /dev/audio-device for testing
[02:42] <Theeb> pckchem,  ok
[02:42] <Jim_H> linux29684, thanks for your suggestion - I'll keep looking
[02:42] <pckchem> Theeb, log out then log in... sorry dyslexic moment
[02:43] <Theeb> i figured :p
[02:43] <linux29684> DarkKnight: this shows the permissions of the files, you can sudo chmod 755 filename or sudo chmod 777 filename to get rid of the lock
[02:43] <losetheshizzle> linux29684 - what is the exact command for that?
[02:43] <DavidCanarias> I have Java installed and sometimes on some web pages it says it isn't running? Does it not run all the time automatically? If not how do I turn it on and off please?
[02:43] <Theeb> pckchem,  brb
[02:43] <DarkKnight> linux29684; but the permissions weren't there before....it just got on its own
[02:44] <linux29684> losttheshizzle: i know i have used it recently, but i don't know the exact command off hand; last i used it was with a matlab program
[02:44] <linux29684> DarkKnight: is the flash stick fat or ntfs?
[02:44] <losetheshizzle> linux29684: okay.. i'll look around and see what i can find..
[02:45] <test34> linux29684: in the bluetooth preferences, do you know what the key and the blue "I" mean ?
[02:45] <DarkKnight> linux29684; it shows msdos
[02:45] <etfb> Running Apache on my laptop and writing programs to communicate via HTTP with localhost.  Is there a tool that can show me the whole HTTP "conversation", headers and all?
[02:45] <linux29684> DarKKnight: well, the chmod will get rid of the locks, don't know how they got there
[02:45] <kasdaye> Just installed 8.10. Feels like learning to walk again, and man do I hate falling down.
[02:46] <rww> etfb: wireshark
[02:46] <linux29684> test34: there are no services in teh bluetooth preferences visible
[02:46] <indshadows> is anyone currently using a Nvidia 9600 GT seris- at DDR3? (at full capacity, full desktop effects). I ask because im not able to get it to work at all.
[02:46] <etfb> rww: That's what someone suggested before, but it doesn't seem to do what I want.
[02:46] <test34> linux29684: I can get my bluetooth headset paired.. but can't get it to work
[02:46] <rww> etfb: It should. What couldn't you get it to do?
[02:46] <etfb> rww: I'm interested in the HTTP conversation, ie POST and GET and so on, not so much the individual packets and DNS lookups and so on.
[02:46] <linux29684> test34: i can get no data communications with any bluetooth device; and definately no pairing
[02:47] <gnutron> etfb: your httpd.log should show all. the name may differ
[02:47] <Theeb> pckchem, same problem :(
[02:47] <etfb> rww: Not that I can get wireshark to do anything at all.  The log file doesn't give headers or POST content.
[02:47] <jrib> test34, linux29684: have you looked for relevant bugs at bugs.ubuntu.com?  There was someone here the other day who needed some help applying a patch because he couldn't get his bluetooth to work
[02:48] <exodus_ms> sudo aticonfig --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf --tls=1 If you are using the ATI proprietary driver it will ignore any changes you make in xorg.conf unless you run this command
[02:48] <rww> etfb: huh, thought it would show that. guess not...
[02:48] <test34> linux29684: what do you get in dmesg when connecting your bluetooth adapter if its USB
[02:48] <linux29684> jrib: its a problem with the distribution 8.10
[02:48] <jrib> linux29684: right... and?
[02:48] <linux29684> jrib: everything worked fine on ubuntu 8.04 before upgrading
[02:48] <endo602> has anyone used spdif with xfi?
[02:48]  * meoblast001 is angry
[02:48] <meoblast001> i installed mingw32
[02:48] <jrib> linux29684: yes
[02:48] <mezquitale> anyone knows how to auto identify on this server so I wont have to /msg nickserv identify
[02:48] <meoblast001> why wont it come up in Code::blocks
[02:48] <etfb> rww: I can't make wireshark do anything at all, and a quick look through the help didn't enlighten me.
[02:48] <test34> jrib: I havent looked there but I did lots of research.. I will give that a try
[02:49] <rww> etfb: run it as root with sudo or gksudo
[02:49] <dr_willis> mezquitale,  depends on your irc client..  xchat has a 'password' field in the server settings for it..
[02:49] <rww> mezquitale: set your client to send your nickserv password as the server password
[02:49] <exodus_ms> mezquitale, I just used a 'text replace' and used /msg nickserv identify brynlee30 for /msg nickserver...
[02:49] <mezquitale> dr_willis: im using konversation
[02:49] <linux29684> jrib: i looked at all of bugzilla and ubuntuforums
[02:49] <etfb> Ah!  That is an option when it installs.  Let me try that...
[02:49] <exodus_ms> mezquitale, I just used a 'text replace' and used /msg nickserv identify brynlee30
[02:49] <gnutron> etfb: last time i ran apache it was /var/run/httpd.log  try apache.org
[02:49] <jrib> linux29684: I didn't say anything about bugzilla or ubuntuforums :/
[02:50] <exodus_ms> mezquitale, very sorry, did that make any sense?
[02:50] <endo602> anyone use SPDIF optical out for their audio/?
[02:50] <rww> etfb: for whatever reason it doesn't work properly as a normal user, and neglects to tell you that
[02:50] <linux29684> jrib: bugs.ubuntu.com, checked and posted info there
[02:50] <pckchem> Theeb, sorry that didn't work. Unfortunatly I have to take off here in a second. Hopefully someone else will be able to help. You can also make a post to the forums or launchpad's answer tracker. Good luck.
[02:50] <mezquitale> exodus_ms:  im trying to figure out what everyone is saying LoL
[02:50] <exodus_ms> ok, well looks like I need to make some changes ....
[02:50] <mezquitale> dr_willis:  is xchat for gnome???
[02:51] <etfb> rww: that's fixed it.  I'm getting large piles of gibberish, but at least it's something.  Thanks!
[02:51] <zetheroo> what to do about kernal panics?

[02:51] <zetheroo> ?
[02:51] <jrib> linux29684: you found no bluetooth bugs describing your problem already?
[02:51] <test34> linux29684: have you tried the latest version of bluez
[02:51] <slinkeey> hi
[02:51] <bsusa> could someone please assist me in setting up a bluetooth mouse in mythbuntu?
[02:51] <bsusa> i installed the bluetooth software but still i cant find a bluetooth setup in mythbuntu
[02:51] <slinkeey> Has anyone ever heard of a screen jittering after waking from suspend?
[02:51] <test34> linux29684: I didnt try the latest version, but that's what I'm going to try next
[02:51] <Mal3ko> guys, i've just create a new user acc. when i login the acc thru ssh, why at the promp it only display "$" instead of user@hostname?
[02:52] <mezquitale> aahhh... i already have xchat for gnome installed, let me give it a try, brb

[02:52] <Marfi> i have a friend who is having an error with his network card. whenever he goes to network manager, he is getting "updating connection failed:nm-ifupdown-connection.c82-connection update not supported (read only)"  anyone have an idea?
[02:52] <linux29684> test34: tried the lastest version of bluez, it comes with intrepid, even tried to compile it
[02:52] <alex_21> Hey, guys, my dns is broken. I can't look up "host x.x.x.x" using that command. What can I do?
[02:52] <test34> linux29684: my intrepid doesnt come with the latest version
[02:52] <Mal3ko> jrib: sudo useradd -d /home/mal3ko -m mal3ko
[02:52] <bruenig> gees the mods have it easy, just let floodbots handle it all
[02:52] <test34> should be 4.21 not 4.12
[02:53] <jrib> Mal3ko: is there a reason you did not use 'adduser' instead?
[02:53] <linux29684> alex_21: edit /etc/resolv.conf (it will re-wipe everytime reboot)
[02:53] <freetown> aleX-xx, look in /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf
[02:53] <freetown> oops
[02:53] <linux29684> alex_21: its a temporary fix, i need the solution to that as well, no one here has it i think
[02:53] <freetown> alex_21,
[02:53] <Mal3ko> i thought both cmds are the same, no?
[02:53] <jrib> Mal3ko: nope
[02:53] <linux29684> test34: bluez4 is the latest version?
[02:53] <test34> Mal3ko: adduser is easier
[02:53] <shangqian> linux29684,  can you help me
[02:53] <Mal3ko> okay
[02:53] <Marfi> i have a friend who is having an error with his network card. whenever he goes to network manager, he is getting "updating connection failed:nm-ifupdown-connection.c82-connection update not supported (read only)"  anyone have an idea?
[02:53] <linux29684> shangqian: what is your question?
[02:53] <jrib> Mal3ko: for one, adduser will copy /etc/skel/ to new accounts.  That's the reason you don't have the bash prompt you expected
[02:54] <test34> linux29684: 4.21, not 4.12 (the latest one in the official repository)
[02:54] <freetown> shangqian, i am Chinese but I cannot read what gcc reported. You think others here can!?
[02:54] <shangqian> when i make uImage ,gcc: 0：没有该文件或目录
[02:54] <rww> !cn > shangqian
[02:54] <linux29684> test34: please lead me to download *.deb for bluez 4.21
[02:54] <test34> linux29684: I didn't find a .deb yet.. only source from http://bluez.org
[02:55] <m1xed> how do I view all users in this room using xchat?
[02:55] <Mal3ko> jrib: so then what's the right syntax for adduser?
[02:55] <linux29684> test34: i tried to compile the 3.x when 4.x didn't work i think
[02:55] <freetown> m1xed, look at right hand side menu
[02:55] <Mal3ko> sudo useradd -d /home/chiang -m chiang ?
[02:55] <jrib> Mal3ko: adduser name_of_new_user
[02:55] <Mal3ko> ok..
[02:55] <rww> m1xed: View > User List if you don't have a list on the right-hand side
[02:55] <jrib> Mal3ko: sudo adduser chiang
[02:55] <shangqian> linux29684,  when I make uImage hen i make uImage ,gcc: 0：没有该文件或目录  can't find the file but file exist
[02:55] <Marfi> i have a friend who is having an error with his network card. whenever he goes to network manager, he is getting "updating connection failed:nm-ifupdown-connection.c82-connection update not supported (read only)"  anyone have an idea?
[02:56] <m1xed> rww: precisely, I do not see "view", give me a few minutes until I figure out where it is
[02:56] <jrib> shangqian: use #ubuntu-cn if you want help in chinese.  If you want help here provide error messages in english (hint: LC_ALL=C)
[02:56] <linux29684> shangqian: try a "ls -a" in the directory of compiling
[02:56] <rww> m1xed: you don't have a menu bar? Press F9
[02:57] <test34> linux29684: I havent tried that but I had the microphone working on my bluetooth headset for a while.. but never the headphone.... I think I had the bt-audio obsolete package installed..
[02:57] <Marfi> i have googled it, and can't find any info about it
[02:57] <shangqian> linux29684, when I ls -a ,i can find the file
[02:57] <linux29684> test34: you download just the bluez-4.21.tar.gz, or all other firmware/hcidump/etc
[02:57] <MBR> whats a program for linux that would perform like the windows program. ghost or acronis ?
[02:57] <Marfi> MBR, like norton ghost?
[02:57] <jrib> Marfi: partimage
[02:57] <ardchoille> MBR: PartImage can be used to clone partitions
[02:57] <m1xed> rww:  I am using xchat 0.18, is this the latest and greatest version?  I do not see "view" in the menu bar
[02:57] <MBR> yeah
[02:57] <MBR> ok
[02:57] <ardchoille> !sysresccd | MBR
[02:57] <MBR> ty.
[02:57] <Marfi> jrib, MBR clonezilla is also good
[02:58] <m1xed> rww, i have "IRC", "Edit", "Network", "Discussion", "Go", and "help" in the menu bar
[02:58] <rww> m1xed: did you install the xchat package or the xchat-gnome package?
[02:58] <exodus_ms> xchat 2.8.6
[02:58] <MBR> ok sweet thanks
[02:58] <test34> linux29684: they are probably all required but I'm not sure, I didnt install it yet
[02:58] <MBR> off to install ubuntu on yet another pc ;)
[02:58] <rww> m1xed: because the -gnome package is weird and stupid and I'd highly recommend removing it and installing the xchat package in its place
[02:59] <m1xed> rww:  i installed it from ubuntu, that is what it installed
[02:59] <Marfi> i have a friend who is having an error with his network card. whenever he goes to network manager, he is getting "updating connection failed:nm-ifupdown-connection.c82-connection update not supported (read only)"  anyone have an idea?
[02:59] <Marfi> i have googled it, with no fix...any ideas?
[02:59] <m1xed> rww:  how should I install xchat?
[02:59] <Madpilot> m1xed, there's both xchat and xchat-gnome. xchat-gnome is awful.
[03:00] <rww> m1xed: give me a sec to check that's the actual problem
[03:00] <Marfi> m1xed, sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome
[03:00] <Marfi> **xchat
[03:00] <m1xed> Madpilot: I have xchat-gnome
[03:00] <Marfi> typo
[03:00] <mn> anyone here that will help me trouble shoot kdevelop?
[03:00] <rww> m1xed: ... yeah, it is. sudo apt-get purge xchat-gnome, then sudo apt-get install xchat
[03:00] <linux29684> anyone know how to perminantly lock the /etc/resolv.conf from changing?
[03:00] <Madpilot> m1xed, Applications->Add/Remove->make sure "All Available Applications" is in the dropdown, then search for xchat
[03:00] <Marfi> i have a friend who is having an error with his network card. whenever he goes to network manager, he is getting "updating connection failed:nm-ifupdown-connection.c82-connection update not supported (read only)"  anyone have an idea?
[03:00] <Marfi> ANY ideas...?
[03:00] <wcdl> xica ainda quel brother consegui produzi cabadura?
[03:01] <test34> Madpilot: but xchat-gnome is the official package
[03:01] <linux29684> Marfi: maybe try sudo ifup ath0 (or eth1 or wifi0) in terminal
[03:01] <m1xed> rww:  "apt-get purge" is an actually command??? I did not know that, this will remove xchat-gnome?
[03:01] <Madpilot> test34, yes, but xchat is available in Universe, happily
[03:01] <rww> test34: Doesn't mean it doesn't suck
[03:01] <rww> m1xed: yes
[03:02] <DarkKnight> hey how can i improve my system administration skills...can suggestion
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> xchat-gnome isn't that bad, just not as good as xchat.
[03:02] <DarkKnight> hey how can i improve my system administration skills...any suggestions
[03:02] <Madpilot> test34, the lack of a real IRC app by default in Ubuntu, and the promotion of the lousy xchat-gnome over real xchat are both long-running arguements in various Ubuntu circles
[03:02] <m1xed> which app do you recommend I install, xchat that uses GTK or XChat-Gnome, I am currently using gnome
[03:02] <TecR0c> DarkKnight: read sysadmin books !
[03:02] <exodus_ms> sudo aptitude install xchat xchat-gnome-
[03:02] <Madpilot> m1xed, xchat
[03:03] <rww> m1xed: package xchat. not package xchat-gnome.
[03:03] <xiangfu> i think xhcar better
[03:03] <DarkKnight> TecR0c; any particular author??
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> Madpilot: lol.. some say that Pidgin is a good irc client, i find it horrid
[03:03] <alex_21> What do you mean that the dns in resolve.conf is temperary
[03:03] <mn> Why will my /usr/bin/install not work???
[03:03] <rww> IndyGunFreak: lol, I used pidgin for IRC for a while...
[03:03] <linux29684> DarkKnight: maybe work on creating a network at home and mess with it on all your spare time
[03:03] <Out_Cold> Hey guys, i was trying to compile some source and and can't seem to even start with './configure' build essentials is installed but what am i missing??
[03:03] <TecR0c> DarkKnight: depends what area you are looking for
[03:03] <jrib> mn: what are you trying to do with it?
[03:03] <Madpilot> IndyGunFreak, ewww.
[03:03] <mn> jrib: install a program
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> rww: i can't use pidgin for IRC... i find it horrible.
[03:03] <exodus_ms> or sudo aptitude install xchat xchat-gnome_
[03:04] <linux29684> alex_21: everytime you reboot, it rewrites the /etc/resolve.conf to its former state
[03:04] <jrib> mn: erm.  What program?  You probably don't want to use /usr/bin/install
[03:04] <m1xed> is DrWillis around?
[03:04] <IndyGunFreak> exodus_ms: you'd need to leave off the _
[03:04] <alex_21> Dark Night, it depends on how youlearn best. I use short tutorials when I need to do something and that is how I learn, smiley, self-directed, but about books, it depends what kind of sysadmin
[03:04] <mn> jrib: whoops, just a sec
[03:04] <rww> IndyGunFreak: I believe the _ makes aptitude purge the package before it
[03:04] <exodus_ms> IndyGunFreak, does th '_' not purge?
[03:04] <losetheshizzle> i got no love on following the sound troubleshooting instructions located here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting -- my drivers aren't listed because there are no nvidia drivers
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> exodus_ms: i don't think so.
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> it might.
[03:05] <linux29684> losttheshizzle: nvidia does more than graphics?
[03:05] <exodus_ms> IndyGunFreak, A _ after a package will override and purge the package
[03:05] <rww> IndyGunFreak: I just checked. It does.
[03:05] <mn> jrib: a prog i wrote.  i just want to be able to access it through terminal
[03:05] <exodus_ms> cool
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, didn't know that, interesting
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> i stand corrected then
[03:05] <losetheshizzle> linux29684: yeah, it's the whole chipset.. adio, graphics, ide, pci..
[03:05] <rww> IndyGunFreak: huzzah for counter-intuitive but sometimes-useful syntax!
[03:06] <slinkeey> what should I do if my monitor jitters after awakeing from suspend?
[03:06] <alex_21> Hey, then what can I do. I can't get out on the net without dns?
[03:06] <slinkeey> This started with 8.04 and still happens in 8.10
[03:07] <linux29684> alex_21, you can edit the /etc/resolv.conf as root and add an opendns server as <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:07] <jrib> mn: what is it?  A script?  A single binary?
[03:07] <linux29684> alex_21: this will give you internet until you reboot with dns support
[03:07] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: sounds like a monitor problem. Is it a CRT? or an lcd...?
[03:07] <losetheshizzle> is there any way to just tell ubuntu to redetect everything sound related?  it was working flawlessley after install.. i swear, ubuntu is making me troubleshoot EVERYTHING!
[03:07] <exodus_ms> did m1xed ever get help?
[03:07] <slinkeey> tdreyer doesn't happen in XP
[03:07] <alex_21> How can I point my computer to my networks dns server?
[03:07] <slinkeey> and it only does after waking from suspend
[03:07] <slinkeey> and I tried a different monitor
[03:07] <mezquitale> Dr_willis left?
[03:08] <rww> exodus_ms: I believe so, yeah. The help was of the form "Your client sucks. Get a new client", though...
[03:08] <linux29684> alex_21: use the router as the dns server; this will use the isp dns server in the router
[03:08] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: can you describe more specifically what it is doing?
[03:08] <mn> jrib:  i wrote the C++ for it and compiled it.  I can't get the compiler to give me the option to compile or install like it was yesterday (i think it's a bit buggy) so i'm trying to do it manually.  it should be a binary. g++ exited without error
[03:08] <mn> jrib: by it being buggy i mean the compiler
[03:08] <exodus_ms> rww, that was helpful :)
[03:09] <slinkeey> tdreyer: It likes shakes
[03:09] <mezquitale> in xchat, where do you put in your password so you can automatically identify your nick?  In "Nickserv password" or "server password"???
[03:09] <slinkeey> the screen jitters around
[03:09] <rww> mezquitale: either
[03:09] <meoblast001> whats the ubuntu equivilant of mingw32-make?
[03:09] <jabagawee_> mezquitale: nickserv passwd
[03:09] <Out_Cold> I was trying to compile some source and and can't seem to even start with './configure' build essentials is installed but what am i missing??
[03:09] <test34> I think you are right about xchat
[03:09] <jabagawee_> rww: orly? heh, i didnt know that.
[03:09] <slinkeey> I don't know the right word to explain it
[03:09] <slinkeey> Twitchy
[03:09] <mezquitale> rww:  thank you, let me see if it works
[03:09] <rww> jabagawee_, mezquitale: freenode passes server passwords along to nickserv
[03:09] <macjason0607> guys .. anyone using another window manager other than gnome kde , fluxbox and icewm
[03:09] <mezquitale> this server is not SSL capable?
[03:10] <rww> mezquitale: nope, not SSL capable
[03:10] <jabagawee_> macjason0607: why do you ask?
[03:10] <jrib> mn: ok, so you can run the program fine by providing the full path, right?  And you just want to add it to your PATH so you can just call name_of_program directly?  Just create a symlink in ~/bin/ if that is the case
[03:10] <linux29684> macjason0607: xfce
[03:10] <Guest28999> "Set as Desktop Background" option when right clicking on a picture in last firefox version does not work.......... did anyone solve this problem yet???
[03:10] <jabagawee_> macjason0607: i've experimented with quite a few...
[03:10] <mezquitale> ok looks like i have to log out, thank you for the help, be back in a few
[03:10] <jabagawee_> Guest28999: just download it to a temp folder and set it from there
[03:10] <jabagawee_> Guest28999: it's a workaround, but heck, it works
[03:11] <Bsims> Ok how do I get xchat to show the timelog and not stomp on it with the nicks
[03:11] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: sorry
[03:11] <tdreyer1_> i'm back
[03:11] <slinkeey> its ok
[03:11] <Guest28999> bugga, allrightyO
[03:11] <Guest28999> cheers jabagawee
[03:11] <tdreyer1_> Slinkeey: are you using a CRT or an LCD or other?
[03:11] <cr4z3d> I've got an Eee PC 901 and looking to move the /tmp dir to my ram using tmpfs. Is this a good idea? I've had some issues where the /tmp dir seems to shrink significantly very fast being on the 4gb partition
[03:11] <alex_21> Hey, how do I tell the computer to use my router as dns server? I have a static IP
[03:12] <slinkeey> LCD
[03:12] <exodus_ms> Bsims, what do you mean?
[03:12] <Out_Cold> anyone??? I could use a bit of help trying to figure out why i can't configure source.. not much for trouble shooting on google
[03:12] <rww> Bsims: do you have "Colored nick names" enabled? If I remember correctly, enabling that made everything stomp all everything else last time I tried it. I have "Indent nick names" and "Enable time stamps" enabled from Interface>Text box in Preferences.
[03:12] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: just wondering, but how much ram you have?
[03:12] <tdreyer1_> Slinkeey: cool. What model, resolution, and refresh rate?
[03:12] <slinkeey> Different video card solves the problem but I would rather keep my current one
[03:12] <cr4z3d> jabagawee_: 1gb
[03:12] <tdreyer1_> Slinkeey: yeah
[03:13] <slinkeey> no name brand monitor
[03:13] <slinkeey> hahahaha
[03:13] <TecR0c> Bsims, have a look in the xchat Preferences
[03:13] <slinkeey> really there is no name on it
 it is a card driver problem then
[03:13] <cr4z3d> alex_21: edit the file /etc/resolv.conf and type "nameserver x.x.x.x" with the ip of your router
[03:13] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: personally, i'd advise against the whole "/tmp in ram" thing, but that's your call. i'm just spoiled on having 2GB ram available to me at all times
[03:13] <TecR0c> then look at text box
[03:13] <mezquitale> rww, it worked!  xchat is a LOT better than konversation, konversation takes ages to start up
[03:13] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: maybe. It may just be that your resolution is not what the monitor likes, or the refresh is off. LCD's have a native resolution and refresh that they work best at.
[03:14] <iHome> I removed the logout icon from panel, and add it back, but when i click on "logout", it only gives me: logout or switch user. where is the shut-down etc option?
[03:14] <slinkeey> true
[03:14] <rww> mezquitale: W00t! Glad I could help :)
[03:14] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: is there a model number somewhere on back?
[03:14] <wcdl> yah
[03:14] <slinkeey> why would it not be a problem when i first turn on the pc?
[03:14] <DarkKnight> linux29684; i have a single system at my place...how can i create a network
[03:14] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: you know, good question. I don't know!
[03:15] <linux29684> use a p2p, such as tor or i2p
[03:15] <rww> iHome: Try the "User Switcher" applet instead
[03:15] <slinkeey> Yes Model A170E1-T5
[03:15] <linux29684> this will emulate a local network
[03:15] <tdreyer1_> everyone: anyone who has an idea, we'd love some advice...
[03:15] <slinkeey> Iw ill google that model
[03:15] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: ok
[03:15] <cr4z3d> jabagawee_: the only problem is that something seems to be eating away at my 4gb partition and bring it to no space available and then the /tmp dir will be only like 10kb of space and that limits me from downloading files or saving anything pretty much (using open office or firefox)
[03:16] <iHome> rww: yeah. that works. but that's not the default button?
[03:16] <wcdl> vai tomar banho nilce
[03:16] <alex_21> I checked /etc/resolv.conf and the nameserver is fine
[03:16] <MrCollins> How do i begin troubleshooting a flash sound issue within firefox? where do I start?
[03:16] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: looks like a 1280x1024 native resolution
[03:16] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: sd cards?
[03:16] <rww> iHome: Which version of Ubuntu are you using? I think it's the default in Intrepid...
[03:16] <iHome> rww: 8.10
[03:16] <cr4z3d> jabagawee_: hmm that could work i have a 1gb sd in there
[03:16] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: im taking a really random stab here, but i think it's pulseaudio
[03:16] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: my firefox audio always dies randomly
[03:16] <MrCollins> jabagawee, what do you mean?
[03:17] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: and its usually pulseaudio's fault
[03:17] <MrCollins> jabagawee, how do i uninstall pulseaudio?
[03:17] <cr4z3d> pulseaudio caused me so many problems.. i had to remove it and use alsa instead in 8.10
[03:17] <MrCollins> I have OSS, Pulse and Alsa installed
[03:17] <alex_21> I checked /etc/resolv.conf and the nameserver is fine
[03:17] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: i'm not entirely sure on how to remove pulseaudio
[03:18] <node357> !info pulseaudio
[03:18] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: but if you find out, i'd be overjoyed to learn
[03:18] <tdreyer1_> Slinkee: is your current resolution 1280x1024?
[03:18] <MrCollins> it all installed by itself when I installed ubuntu 8.10 because I have 2 sound cards, one is onboard and the other is a audigy2
[03:18] <node357> there is a package called pulseaudio, maybe you can remove that
[03:18] <Puhrot> i am trying to install ubuntu for the first time, and i am having issues with it just hanging when it loads. Can anyone help me out with this?
[03:18] <mn> thnx jrib :)
[03:18] <slinkeey> I
[03:18] <slinkeey> i just changed it to that
[03:18] <MrCollins> node357, how do i remove the package?
[03:18] <slinkeey> let me suspend and see wha happens
[03:18] <slinkeey> what
[03:18] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: k
[03:18] <alex_21> I checked /etc/resolv.conf and the nameserver is fine I still can't connect. I have two cards on the system, but one is commented out
[03:19] <rww> iHome: oh, wait, no, you're right. The default is that red square power loho, huh
[03:19] <node357> MrCollins, I'm not sure if it's safe but the command would be: sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio
[03:19] <node357> MrCollins, I think that's it anyway
[03:19] <MrCollins> node357, ok
[03:19] <MrCollins> I am going to try it
[03:19] <node357> okay MrCollins, good luck
[03:19] <cr4z3d> alex_21: pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf
[03:19] <slinkeey> yep it is jittering
[03:19] <iHome> rww: ah.. that depends on the theme. mine was: a running boy
[03:19] <jabagawee_> Puhrot: we're gonna need quite a bit more info here
[03:19] <slinkeey> I will have to reboot
[03:19] <MrCollins> node357,  here we go
[03:20] <tdreyer1_> slinkeey: k
[03:20] <Mal3ko> anyone here familiar with pure-ftpd? how do we set so users can only browse their home dir only?
[03:20] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: tell me if it works
[03:20] <linux29684> cr4z3d: how do i lock the /etc/resolv.conf so the system does not change it?
[03:20] <slinkeey> bbl
[03:20] <MrCollins> ok here we go
[03:20] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: cuz i've been really tempted to do a "sudo aptitude purge pulseaudio"
[03:20] <cr4z3d> linux29684: that i do not know unfortunately
[03:20] <Puhrot> well first off i could not get to run off the cd
[03:20] <MrCollins> jabagawee, what does that do
[03:20] <linux29684> cr4z3d: thanks anyways
[03:20] <Puhrot> it would load to the desktop and just hang
[03:20] <cr4z3d> mine hasn't changed and i've edited it
[03:20] <jabagawee_> Puhrot: what hardware you using?
[03:21] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: its like the apt-get remove
[03:21] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: but i kinda like the look of the word "aptitude" better
[03:21] <iHome> rww: i got another button: shut-down. the original default button=shutdown + logout
[03:21] <cr4z3d> jabagawee_: do you think moving /tmp to an SD card is a good idea? i'm all for it. maybe even put the /var/logs on there too to try and free up some space
[03:21] <linux29684> cr4z3d: mine changes because kvpnc keeps changing it and doesn't change it back
[03:22] <MrCollins> node357, I ran that command, still no sound in firefox
[03:22] <iHome> rww: but now they are separated. not sure where did i click
[03:22] <MrCollins> weird man, audacious works fine
[03:22] <MrCollins> games work fine.... flash no way
[03:22] <rww> iHome: yeah, I'm trying to figure it out myself
[03:22] <MrCollins> I had it working but then I did a reboot
[03:22] <node357> MrCollins, you might be able to change everything in Sound preferences to ALSA..... that worked for me
[03:22] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: honestly, i think thats how must eee hackers do it
[03:22] <cr4z3d> linux29684: backup the working version and make a script to run when you close kvpnc to restore the version you want? just a suggestion for a quick work around
[03:22] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: and it sounds pretty smart too
[03:22] <MrCollins> i have it all set to alsa in the System -> Prefs -> Sound
[03:23] <node357> ugh
[03:23] <alex_21> Here is my /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/network/interfaces. I am blind, so if I missed something, let me know. http://paste.ubuntu.com/79103/
[03:23] <itai_michaelson> i'm trying to download lsb but getting into dependency hell. is there a metapackage for it or something? (xfce on server -ibex)
[03:23] <node357> MrCollins, then I don't know :(
[03:23] <linux29684> cr4z3d: i have no scripting knowledge
[03:23] <MrCollins> node357, ok.
[03:23] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: so flash audio working yet?
[03:23] <MrCollins> jabagawee, no
[03:23] <jabagawee_> MrCollins: D:
[03:23] <MrCollins> jabagawee, yeah major man, I had it working too then I rebooted
[03:23] <node357> so many sound problems with Intrepid :|
[03:24] <alex_21> I had so man problems with sound in II, that I went back to hardy
[03:24] <cr4z3d> linux29684: simple bash script using the "mv" command should be sufficient
[03:24] <alex_21> So many, sorry
[03:24] <MrCollins> alex did hardy seem to work well?
[03:24] <linux29684> cr4z3d: i don't know anything about even simple bash scripts, just *.bat and *.cmd for win32
[03:24] <jabagawee_> linux29684: same idea
[03:25] <jabagawee_> linux29684: one line per command
[03:25] <alex_21> Yes, and being a VIP, Visually Impaired person, the long term "This will stay put" attitude is great
[03:25] <iHome> *test*
[03:25] <alex_21> Hardy rules
[03:25] <jabagawee_> linux29684: but you add a shebang to the beginning, if you want it to run as a standalone scripot
[03:25] <cr4z3d> linux29684: bash script is similar to a bat file. write the commands one on a line and make it executable with "chmod +x /path/filename"
[03:25] <Puhrot> i am running an older AMD athlon 64 3700+ setup MSI K8N mobo, geforce 7800gt, 1 gig of ram
[03:25] <jabagawee_> Puhrot: any hardware that might be specifically problematic?
[03:25] <exodus_ms> for everyone experiencing sound problems I ran across this thread in the forums --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[03:26] <rww> iHome: wait, I think I remember what happened. The "User Switcher" applet got added towards the end of Intrepid's testing cycle, so the old button was in Alpha 1 (where I remember it), but not the Release. If you upgraded from Hardy to Intrepid or from the Alpha to the Release, there was some complicated logic that decided whether you got the old one or the new one, which included the decision that once you get the new one you can't go back. Or something. I m
[03:26] <rww> ight be remembering wrong since it was a long bug report and I read it a while ago.
[03:26] <jabagawee_> Puhrot: do searches on google for your mobo, video card, and anything else that might cause problems (wireless, etc)
[03:26] <linux29684> i'll find the garbage to put at the top, write one, and release it on the internet, maybe sourceforge, thanks all
[03:26] <rww> iHome: the long and short of it is, old button is dead, long live new button =/
[03:27] <alex_21> So what is the problem with my dns? I don't see the problem, smiley, though I wouldn't even if you put it right in front of me. I don't hear the problem
[03:27] <iHome> rww: i removed the wrong button. so it is gone for good. o my dear.
[03:27] <maxb> I have a weird problem - I disable the "Login" sound in "System > Preferences > Sounds" ... but it still plays!?  Any thoughts on debugging?
[03:27] <rww> iHome: if you feel like reading the discussion on this, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/274146
[03:27] <iHome> rww: well. i freshly installed 8.10 . not upgraded from 8.04
[03:28] <iHome> rww: ok thanks
[03:28] <cr4z3d> jabagawee_: so about moving those dirs to an SD card. would symlinks be sufficient or is there a better option?
[03:28] <jabagawee_> rww: heh, way to rub it in
[03:28] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: ehhh, i have no clue whatsoever
[03:28] <cr4z3d> ah it's all good i'm sure google has the answer
[03:28] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: goodgle would be your friend
[03:28] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: i know theres this one specific site though, for eee hacking
[03:29] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: like, eeeuser or something
[03:29] <alex_21> So what is the problem with my dns? I don't see the problem, smiley, though I wouldn't even if you put it right in front of me. I don't hear the problem
[03:29] <Pici> !eeepc
[03:29] <cr4z3d> jabagawee_: i should find a more technical one then cuz a lot of them are end users using windows
[03:29] <Puhrot> besides some sound issues coming up on a search for my hardware, i didn't see any major issues
[03:29] <iHome> rww: and i noticed that: the maximize window in : gthumb>crop : is missing as well. so 8.10 is not better than 8.04 in some espects :D
[03:30] <Puhrot> also when i first get to the username screen the test is so small when i type in my user name i can't even read it, i dunno if that is at all related
[03:30] <jabagawee_> cr4z3d: really? back when i first saw it, i thought it was quite technical
[03:30] <jabagawee_> Puhrot: yeah, it might be a sign
[03:30] <jabagawee_> Puhrot: that youre not getting the default resolutioln
[03:30] <Puhrot> and also the text on the options menu is super crazy small and unreadble too
[03:31] <rww> iHome: Oh, I know. There are a bunch of people in here who /need/ to use Hardy because Intrepid breaks their hardware, so yeah, not better in some aspects.
[03:31] <rww> hardware compatibility *
[03:32] <rogan> were are screenshots saved in 8.10?
[03:32] <Pici> rogan: On the desktop usually.
[03:32] <solid_liq> !ping
[03:32] <rww> rogan: if you mean the ones you get from pressing the Printscreen button in GNOME, wherever you tell them to. There's an option in the Save Screenshot dialog.
[03:33] <solid_liq> :)
[03:33] <rogan> rww: were is the save screenshots dialog
[03:33] <rww> rogan: it's the thing that comes up when you press the Printscreen button
[03:33] <gab3> anybody know a gui runlevel editor for kubuntu/ubuntu?
[03:34] <Puhrot> it looks like the resolution is displayed fine except the font size
[03:34] <rww> !info bum | gab3
[03:34] <rogan> rww: nothing comes up.. when I press the button I can notice some delay as of the shot being taken but no option to save
[03:34] <Puhrot> i can see all the toolbars on the edges
 I know, I can't read the login screen. Maybe the fact that I am blind might have something to do with it. But, Seriously, anyone here know how to make the login window readable by Orca/Speakup
[03:35] <exodus_ms> do a apt-get install rcconf, and you will have a runlevel editor.
[03:35] <rww> rogan: Huh, that's odd. Well, try looking in your home folder and the Desktop. That's the usual two places they'd be =/
