[20:10] <bruenig> lespea, yeah, it isn't really aptitude's fault. It is that the debian package management setup doesn't have the ability to group packages, so ubuntu hackishly creates these fake packages that it loads down with dependencies. Aptitude actually treats them like dependencies and removes them when they aren't needed but they aren't truly dependencies, just a hackish way to group packages. It is the package fault, but you have to deal with
[20:10] <bruenig>  it so aptitude is bad until the package standard gets fixed.
[20:10] <rebot_> I just installed a fresh copy of Gutsy.  I choose ubuntu 7.10 in Grub, then it goes to a black screen and then nothing happens. I can get in thru recovery mode, but i'd like to get default mode working
[20:11] <sidlet> bruenig, thats a pretty solid explanation too. Care if I quote you?
[20:11] <buntu-nub> bluefox83, why the noatime?
[20:11] <bruenig> sidlet, I don't care
[20:11] <sidlet> Ty
[20:12] <bluefox83> buntu-nub: not sure, taking that out now..
[20:12] <tiago_> oi
[20:12] <walkint0me> anyone know how to enable shared folders using ubuntu 7.10 and virutal pc 2007?
[20:12] <bluefox83> buntu-nub: /dev/hda1       /              ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro  0       1   <---that better?
[20:12] <buntu-nub> bluefox83, yup
[20:12] <thruxton> hello, does anyone know if the standard ubuntu installer for 7.10 incude the ability to encrypt a filesystem or do I have to get the `alternat-install' iso?
[20:12] <bluefox83> buntu-nub: ok, welp..lets hope this works =)
[20:13] <andresj> netlan, no puedo ayudar, no se nada de freeradius. :)
[20:13] <buntu-nub> anyone able to help me with importing a key to gutsy?
[20:13] <EdBoy> rebot_: I have the same issue
[20:13] <EdBoy> just wait for it, it starts for me after a while
[20:13] <nun63> ciao
[20:13] <rebot_> EdBoy; how long?  and no fix for this?
[20:14] <EdBoy> it really depends, my lappy is pretty crappy, so I dunno
[20:14] <underwatercow> does anyone know why Ubuntu puts .Trash files all over the place and how I'm supposed to empty them?
[20:14] <EdBoy> usually it does that and I use fsck through recovery mode
[20:14] <EdBoy> but it could be different for you
[20:14] <bruenig> underwatercow, that is controlled by nautilus I think
[20:14] <rebot_> EdBoy; k, i'll tinker with it. thanks
[20:15] <t0406peru> Well, you guys are no help...I'll try to figure out my USB Flash drive problem all by myself... :(
[20:15] <bipolar> Is the airprime module available in gutsy, or has that functonality been rolled into usbserial now?
[20:15] <Klanticus> I got some problems with wireless driver acx. It says there's no empty buffers. Is there a fix for this?
[20:15] <EdBoy> hi spoop
[20:15] <underwatercow> bruenig: thanks... any idea what I can do about it? .Trash files end up everywhere... partitions, folders, lol... and lots of them don't seem to empty when I empty the trash on the panel...

[20:16] <EdBoy> see, I don't use nautilus
[20:16] <bruenig> underwatercow, don't know, just don't use nautilus maybe? I tend to do file management from cli because I find it is quicker, I use thunar from time to time which is the default xfce file manager and it doesn't do that
[20:16] <cidwel> ya
[20:17] <underwatercow> Pici: thanks, I've been either doing that or navigating to it through nautilus and deleting... it's just annoying... I have a number of partitions and all of them end up with .Trash... my /tmp has a .Trash...

[20:17] <v1d4l0k4> Security Question: Some of these unpatched vulnerabilities affect the current version of Ubuntu? http://secunia.com/product/2719/?task=advisories
[20:17] <youknowme> I was using totem in fullscreen mode while updating compiz with the update manager, and when I exited fullscreen mode none of my windows had borders. SO I did "metacity --replace" and it fixed it but then totem kept giving me a green screen until I rebooted and now I have this problem with fulscreen, http://i12.tinypic.com/44quo7b.png.
[20:17] <bruenig> underwatercow, you have a /tmp partition?
[20:17] <underwatercow> bruenig: no... it's part of my / partition

[20:18] <MasseR> rt2500 goes into a loop.. So no luck with it..
[20:18] <bruenig> youknowme, reboot? did you have another kernel you were switching into?
[20:18] <walkint0me> Does anyone know how to access an external usb drive from ubuntu using virtual pc 2007?
[20:18] <bruenig> underwatercow, yet it has a /tmp/.Trash?
[20:18] <MasseR> If I try to load rt2500pci dmesg returns wlan0 link is not ready
[20:18] <bruenig> underwatercow, oh nevermind I get it because /tmp has its own filesystem and is in fstab, that must be why it does that
[20:19] <underwatercow> bruenig: could be... I couldn't figure out why it would do that, lol

[20:19] <EdBoy> !aptitude
[20:19] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[20:19] <bruenig> underwatercow, well at least there is a pattern.  Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[20:20] <bruenig> someone needs to change the !aptitude factoid
[20:20] <Oracle> got a data backup question
[20:20] <bruenig> The way it is written, it implies that apt-get doesn't remove dependencies
[20:20] <Oracle> if i put the files on a drive as is on an external
[20:20] <bruenig> which is false of course
[20:20] <Oracle> and format that drive
[20:20] <Oracle> and put em back on
[20:20] <Oracle> will it all still work?
[20:20] <lespea> bruenig: apt will leave behind packages moreso than aptitude
[20:21] <bruenig> lespea, no it won't, autoremove does everything aptitude does
[20:21] <frojnd> How would I connect 14 CRT monitors so picture would be extended from 1st to 14th.? on this monitor would only be virtualization by amarko, audacious or any other program. Is for this needed very good graphic card or 7 lowsy graphic cards and one copmture with support of 7 lowsy pci cards ???
[20:21] <user-ken> would this be the channel to ask for help in if i'm having problems with xinit?
[20:21] <JarG0n> how can I get an external drive device listing?  I plugged in a USB Thumb Drive and I got an "Cannot mount volume: Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume" error.
[20:21] <bruenig> lespea, and because it is optional, won't lead you into meta-package hell like the paste showed before
[20:22] <Oracle> bruenig, i got an external drive now, so i just back up the data i wanna keep, like programs and all, format the drive NTFS, and put the data back and windows sill see it all like before
[20:22] <Oracle> and the programs will run?
[20:22] <eXeCuTeR> GUYS!
[20:22] <eXeCuTeR> I need help
[20:22] <bruenig> Oracle, not sure, that is probably a ##windows question
[20:22] <eXeCuTeR> I'm trying to install windows on virtualbox
[20:22] <Oracle> alright
[20:22] <lespea> bruenig: i was just saying...
[20:22] <eXeCuTeR> with NON-SUCCESS!
[20:22] <Oracle> if i format the drive in here as ntfs, will windows see it all
[20:22] <Oracle> in uubntu that is
[20:23] <bruenig> Oracle, if windows has an ntfs driver, it will
[20:23] <Oracle> alright
[20:23] <Oracle> thanks
[20:23] <bruenig> same as if it had an ext3 driver
[20:23] <MartinW> How can I control Rythmbox from a panel?

[20:25] <eXeCuTeR> PLEASE HELP ME
[20:25] <youknowme> bruenig, http://pastebin.com/d3304c3da
[20:25] <bruenig> youknowme, yes but why if you weren't changing into another kernel?
[20:25] <bruenig> youknowme, rebooting is always unnecessary unless you are on windows or need to switch kernels
[20:26] <youknowme> bruenig, its a noob response :)
[20:26] <bruenig> youknowme, I would just try removing the totem configuration directory which I assume will be in ~/.totem or ~/.config/totem
[20:26] <CADF> I just want my wobbly windows. :(

[20:26] <jossteuf> yumi:je suis la

[20:27] <bruenig> evlP, script is unsupported

[20:29] <rebot_> I choose Ubuntu 7.10 from Grub menu, the screen goes blank, my monitor turns off, then nothing happens.  Any ideas?

[20:36] <kakoonia> hehehe
[20:36] <MartinW> JunkBox: Preferably right click next to the left end of the panel
[20:37] <kane77> hi, how can I get back deleted files?
[20:37] <MartinW> if you're unhappy wiht the menu bar's new place. Right-click on it and select REmove from panel and re-create it somewhere else.
[20:37] <junkbox> i do not see amenu-bar any wheres in the "add to panel" window

[20:38] <ViRUS> When bootstrapping ubuntu some things are done a little bit different. My configuration is now really messed up and not really ubuntu-like. e.g. I have a group "sudo" but no "admin" group and the locales don't work as expected (I always end up using the applications with the "C" locale). Anyone knows how to fix a bootstrapped ubuntu so it works just like as it had been installed with the official installer?
[20:38] <paulistall> can someone help me with conky?
[20:38] <kakoonia> [chr0n0s]: maybe try opening system->preferances->keyboard.. then test there in the blank space to type.. see if it skips letters there also
[20:38] <junkbox> not yet, still looking for "menu-bar"
[20:38] <paulistall> for some reason the units are written as KiB instead of KB
[20:38] <paulistall> is there a way to change that
[20:38] <xIke_> when I try to run apt-get upgrade, it says: The package linux-image-<IP_ADDRESS> needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[20:38] <xIke_> anyone know how to fix that?
[20:39] <GTO-Linux> hi
[20:39] <ViRUS> Problem here is that my software raid was not detected correctly so I had to set up and mount the devices manually. The GUI installer didn't recognize the devices so I had to bootstrap my system manually.

[20:45] <PirateHead> madman91: what is remote-ssh-shell?
[20:45] <[chr0n0s]> kakoonia, there is not any problem like key repeating, it just skips, and it works fine in windows.
[20:45] <lespea> madman91: you can work on your computer remotely... you can use it as a proxy to bypass firewalls... etc
[20:45] <madman91> Pirate_Hunter: a shell through ssh.. remotely located

[20:45] <evilamoeba> I removed Pidgin from my system tray and would like to re-add it, but cannot determine how to go about doing it. This is the status icon, not a launcher. Can anyone provide assistance, please?
[20:46] <Dr_Willis> nivekc1 with spaces in th e file name you would have to do somthing like                  sudo rm -rf  '/opt/whatever its called'              BE VERY carefull - a typo there might trash the system. :)
[20:46] <NemesisD> is there any way to disable a vnc server machine from seeing your mouse movements and whatnot from the viewer end?
[20:46] <PirateHead> madman91: ssh can be used to log into somebody else's computer through the network
[20:46] <madman91> lespea: is there a list of such uses? I know the basic ones.. but i would like to see if i have any use for them
[20:46] <madman91> Pirate_Hunter: i know.
[20:46] <[chr0n0s]> evilamoeba, open console and type sudo apt-get install pidgin
[20:46] <Dr_Willis> evilamoeba i would guess thats a pidgin setting option.  Not that ive used pidgen much.
[20:46] <PirateHead> madman91: so, what do you mean "what is a good use"?
[20:46] <the_blur> pidgin rocks
[20:46] <PirateHead> madman91: that is THE good use for ssh
[20:47] <[chr0n0s]> the_blur, pidgin doesn't allow using the RSA keys
[20:47] <Dr_Willis> ssh is the swiss army knife of tools. :)
[20:47] <Pirate_Hunter> madman91: wat d ... what did i say? caus ei ahvent tyed anything yet
[20:47] <lespea> Dr_Willis: netcat :P
[20:47] <sjkwizard> i have to make partitions in a pen drive...can i do only logical partition o i need a primary partition?
[20:47] <Fizzbane> What is the keyboard button combanation that will do a soft restart?
[20:48] <MilitantPotato> evilamoeba: open pidgen, then Tools>Prefrences, choose System Tray Icon and set it too always
[20:48] <evilamoeba> @ [chr0n0s] Pidgin is still installed, it's just hidden from the system tray.
[20:48] <nivekc1> ok i typed sudo rm -rf /opt/planeshift
[20:48] <PirateHead> How do I revert to an earlier version of the Linux kernel?
[20:48] <lespea> madman91: i ssh into my computre from school all the time so i can use linux + get my files (scp)
[20:48] <MilitantPotato> pidgin*
[20:48] <darwin81> Is AMD64 worth the hassle?
[20:48] <nivekc1> it appeared to work but the folder is still there
[20:48] <tatters> I am trying to run firestarter through ssh in the docs it says "can be managed graphically over SSH"  but when I try I get error "(firestarter:4305): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:"  do i need to install something server side or client side to get a graphical ssh?
[20:48] <madman91> lespea: putty isnt allowed at my school
[20:48] <lespea> lespea: so put it on a usb disk
[20:48] <MilitantPotato> darwin81: no
[20:48] <lespea> ah lol
[20:48] <devine92106> userlist
[20:48] <madman91> lespea: :D
[20:48] <[chr0n0s]> evilamoeba, you mean the notification tray, or the quick launcher icon is missing ?
[20:48] <evilamoeba> @ MilitantPotato : I have done that and it did not solve my problem.
[20:48] <PirateHead> madman91: how do they block putty?
[20:48] <MilitantPotato> darwin81: unless you have more then 3 gigs of memory.
[20:48] <lespea> madman91: put it on a usb disk... (google portable putty)
[20:48] <ChrisC35>  I think i'm going to need some help setting up networking - ive installed Samba, followed the instructions to setup a user, edit the smb.conf file, i configured it for home directories. I cannot find it from my windows computer. I have not setup any networking per sey on my ubuntu install, just using defaults (I dont know a lot about it).

[20:49] <Odd-rationale> Fizzbane: alt+PrtSc+b But hold on a moment.
[20:49] <MilitantPotato> evilamoeba: did you remove the panel applet that shows the icons?
[20:49] <madman91> Pirate_Hunter: they scan our network drives every once in a while
[20:49] <evilamoeba> [chr0n0s] : the notification tray, next to the date and power icon.
[20:49] <madman91> lespea: sounds good

[20:49] <jvai> tatters, try it the other way, run ssh thru firestarter
[20:49] <[chr0n0s]> kakoonia, np
[20:49] <nivekc1> Dr_Willis: i typed sudo rm -rf /opt/planeshift and it appeared to work it didnt say ne thig was wrong but the folder isnt gone it is still there

[20:54] <cdm10> How do I use gnome-swallow-applet?
[20:54] <MartinW> /leave 11AM where I live.
[20:54] <cdm10> I can't seem to figure it out.
[20:54] <MartinW> /leave
[20:54] <[chr0n0s]> indian, not much difference, dvd is good if you don't have internet access
[20:54] <MartinW> /exit
[20:54] <RandomUsr> tatters, why?
[20:54] <cdm10> MartinW: /part
[20:54] <Odd-rationale> indian: For one thing, the dvd takes a whole lot longer to download!
[20:54] <Bsims> I don't have anything in disks and devices under kubuntu control panel... any ideas... I am trying to turn on automount in KDE
[20:55] <madman91> hm..
[20:55] <kakoonia> ive noticed in compiz-fusion demonstration, that theres a tray of enlarged icons at the bottom of the screen, and i was wondering, if someone can tell me how do i set this kind of feature?
[20:55] <[chr0n0s]> !kubuntu | bsaxon
[20:55] <ubotu> bsaxon: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[20:55] <cdm10> kakoonia: that's called AWN, and it's separate from compiz fusion.
[20:55] <MilitantPotato> buuwhaha figured it out.
[20:55] <[chr0n0s]> !kubuntu | Bsims
[20:55] <python_user> System.out.println("Does anyone know how to fix this Java problem?");
[20:55] <ubotu> Bsims: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[20:55] <softboy> 这是什么呀
[20:55] <magicrobotmonkey> kakoonia: thats most likely avant-window-navigator
[20:55] <Odd-rationale> indian: But really, the dvd has the LiveCD, Alternative CD, and Server CD all in one.
[20:55] <[chr0n0s]> softboy, is that chinese ?
[20:56] <softboy> I FROM CHINA
[20:56] <cdm10> kakoonia: AWN (avant-window-navigator) isn't in the repos, but there's a way to install it on Ubuntu... I haven't done it, though, so I don't know how...
[20:56] <Bsims> I know that [chr0n0s] but I wanted to know if I should file a bugreport about it
[20:56] <RandomUsr> kakoonia, you´re prolly referring to Kiba or AWN dock
[20:56] <cdm10> !cn | softboy
[20:56] <ubotu> softboy: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw  或者 #ubuntu-hk
[20:56] <softboy> YES

[20:56] <kakoonia> ok.. can it be loaded along with compiz?
[20:56] <RandomUsr> !AWN
[20:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about awn - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:56] <softboy> BUT BAD IN ENGLISH
[20:56] <cdm10> ChrisC35: Your message is too long, and gets cut off... split it in half.
[20:56] <kakoonia> !AWN
[20:56] <cdm10> softboy: don't use ALL CAPS
[20:56] <RandomUsr> !Kiba
[20:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:56] <indian> so the only difference between the dvd and cd is that the dvd has 3 different types on cds on it
[20:56] <cdm10> !cn | softboy
[20:56] <RandomUsr> hmm
[20:56] <ubotu> softboy: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw  或者 #ubuntu-hk

[20:57] <MilitantPotato> ChrisC35: try joining there
[20:57] <llslim> lespea: thats what i have and apache2 giving me a warning no matching vhost for namevirtualhost
[20:57] <RandomUsr> kakoonia, you have to download it seperately
[20:57] <[chr0n0s]> aah.. its  raining here :)
[20:57] <PirateHead> How do I revert to an earlier version of the Linux kernel? I am experiencing hardware regressions and I want to go back.
[20:58] <MilitantPotato> PirateHead: choose it in grub?
[20:58] <lespea> llslim: oh :(
[20:58] <ChrisC35> mk
[20:58] <PirateHead> MilitantPotato: That only works if you have it already installed. I want to install an older version.
[20:58] <finalbeta> anyone has an idea what this could be? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glipper/+bug/99881 I've had it a long time. Upgraded to Feisty and it still happens. Rather not format for something like this. Glipper crashing.
[20:58] <RandomUsr> tatters, does knetwork manager not work for you?
[20:58] <MilitantPotato> PirateHead: ah, sorry I can't help there.
[20:58] <[chr0n0s]> PirateHead, try downloading a new kernel ?
[20:58] <[chr0n0s]> i mean old kernel

[20:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sandbox - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:59] <PirateHead> [chr0n0s]: how do you download an old kernel?
[20:59] <finalbeta> Sry, I mean upgraded to Gutsy

[20:59] <[chr0n0s]> PirateHead, http://www.kernel.org/
[21:00] <ChrisC35>  I'm trying to setup Samba on my Ubuntu machine, so I can use that machine as a file server. I want to access my /home/user form my windows machine
[21:00] <ChrisC35> i setup samba as per tutorials, but I don't know anything about networking - i just have default install on ubuntu, its set to wired
[21:00] <ChrisC35>  is there something i have to setup?
[21:00] <amadeux> is there a command I can run that will make my screen go into sleep/standby mode?

[21:01] <jess^^> hey, my laptop brightness controls don't work in xfce... any ideas?
[21:01] <MilitantPotato> ChrisC35: SWAT made it fairly easy to set up.

[21:01] <jackault> I've noticed the "alarm for minimum value" in KDE system guard gets turned off after it's triggered once. Is there any option to leave it off for like a minute and then turn the alarm on again?
[21:01] <MilitantPotato> RandomUsr: Samba Web Administration Tool
[21:02] <RandomUsr> MilitantPotato, that made too much sense
[21:02] <MilitantPotato> RandomUsr: It lets you configure it via a web browser

[21:04] <bluefox83> how do you install gdm themes in gutsy?
[21:04] <MilitantPotato> racarter: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/   If you completely corrupted your windows install you'll need to re-install it.  Then re-install GRUB bootloader to access linux
[21:04] <RandomUsr> anyone here use knetwork manager
[21:04] <[chr0n0s]> PirateHead, does this help ? http://www.al.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/

[21:07] <RoRza> Pici:  what's a software repository ?
[21:07] <MilitantPotato> ChrisC35: have you followed those guides?
[21:07] <RoRza> Irb Yes
[21:07] <walkint0me> python_user: I have wired connection or modem
[21:07] <RoRza> jrib yes I am
[21:07] <RandomUsr> bucatoamano, any ideas?
[21:08] <ChrisC35> not those specifically
[21:08] <ChrisC35> i'll try them now
[21:08] <ogee> join #ubuntu-alabama
[21:08] <Pici> RoRza: Repositories are servers that hold software that is very easy to install, no extracting needed.
[21:08] <bucatoamano> RandomUsr: mm no

[21:08] <RoRza> cool ...its sound like what I need
[21:08] <Dragon2611> @ crimsun_ thanks thats got amarok working again :)
[21:08] <bucatoamano> RandomUsr: ;)
[21:08] <walkint0me> python_user: no
[21:08] <jrib> RoRza: on ubuntu, you use the Add/Remove or Synaptic program to install things from the repositories as Pici and ubotu have said
[21:08] <RoRza> Are this places where software are held
[21:08] <python_user> but you'll have to connect your ethernet card to your router
[21:08] <NeXxOr> SES BLINDER ICI =)

I checked it with ndiswrapper -l and it says the driver was installed . but I don't see it

[21:14] <compu73rg33k> I"ve created my partitions and encrypted them and then made ext3 filessytems. then on the live CD i've opened the partitions with cryptsetup and then when I go to install on "Prepare Partitions" dialog, the partitions come up under /dev/mapper where they should. I make the necessary mount point changes and then it errors with ""the file system on /dev/mapper/root assigned to / has not been marked for formatting. File systems use by

[21:15] <python_user> walkint0me, im sorry i cant help more
[21:15] <Lockzi> Could someone please help me activate zlib on ubuntu? I've done apt-get install zlib1g (which downloads zlib), and now I need to know how to activate it in PHP/Apache
[21:15] <kbrooks> TedStevens, Go on.
[21:15] <python_user> have you tried ubuntu forums?
[21:16] <TedStevens> Ten movies streaming across that, that Internet, and what happens to your own personal Internet? I just the other day got... an Internet was sent by my staff at 10 o'clock in the morning on Friday, I got it yesterday. Why? Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the Internet commercially.
[21:16] <hanzel> need help with sound. please
[21:16] <walkint0me> python_user: no problem

[21:16] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[21:16] <walkint0me> python_user: I have---I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I'm going to try reinstalling it
[21:16] <tecywiz121> anyone??
[21:16] <compu73rg33k> kbrooks: any advice on my issue?
[21:17] <jimmacdonald> HI folks, I have a dual monitor question.
[21:17] <xanax`> is there a specific channel for wubi ?
[21:17] <hanzel> every things work, just not the software
[21:17] <jimmacdonald> I just got a 22 monitor for my bday!. I have a dual head video card and want to run both monitors on it.
[21:17] <python_user> walkint0me, yeah that's a good idea
[21:17] <hanzel> the only thing i can here is my mic
[21:17] <jimmacdonald> I am having difficulty getting Ubuntu to correctly configure both monitors.
[21:17] <python_user> you said it worked with a previous version?
[21:17] <Lr5_> jimmacdonald: nvidia card?
[21:18] <jimmacdonald> yes
[21:18] <hanzel> but people on Teamspeak cant hear me
[21:18] <racarter> using gparted, there looks to be an extra 4MB of space before and after the ntfs parition.. would it do any harm to try to resize the parition so it uses up the free space?
[21:18] <Lr5_> jimmacdonald: there's a nvidia program for that
[21:18] <jimmacdonald> Would it be better just to have Xconfigure?
[21:18] <maximus> how to use the ALLTRAY?
[21:18] <maximus> how to use the ALLTRAY?
[21:18] <Lr5_> jimmacdonald: nvidia-xconfig --twinview I guess
[21:18] <bastid_raZor> jimmacdonald, do you have an nvidia card?
[21:18] <Pici> !repeat | maximus
[21:18] <ubotu> maximus: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[21:18] <jimmacdonald> bastid_raZor: yes.
[21:18] <walkint0me> python_user: it worked with ubuntu 7.04
[21:18] <kbrooks> racarter, yes. give your drive more free space. you'll need it.
[21:18] <walkint0me> python_user: it was finnicky, but I got it to work quite easily
[21:18] <RealUbuntuAdvice> Hello, I've been a Linux user since Slackware got started.
[21:18] <wanger> racarter, it probably wouldn't do any harm, but for the sake of 8MB it's probably not worth any risk at all
[21:19] <bastid_raZor> jimmacdonald, i just set up dual monitors.. one sec i'll give you the how to
[21:19] <compu73rg33k> no kbrooks?
[21:19] <wynand> hi guys need help installing 7.1
[21:19] <kbrooks> compu73rg33k, hm?
[21:19] <RealUbuntuAdvice> My name is Carleton White.
[21:19] <racarter> well the thing is that my vista parition doesn't boot, so im trying to think of things to do without erasing the drive
[21:19] <kbrooks> compu73rg33k, um, lvm will still work
[21:19] <compu73rg33k> kbrooks: any idea on installing to an encrypted partition?
[21:19] <amadeux> Is there a command I can run that will make my screen go into standby?
[21:19] <compu73rg33k> hm?
[21:19] <RealUbuntuAdvice> I am a real estate investor who uses Linux as my desktop platform.
[21:19] <racarter> i am downloading ultimatebootcd as was the suggestion before.. but i still want to avoid reformating the whole drive
[21:19] <bastid_raZor> jimmacdonald, do you have the nvidia drivers installed?
[21:19] <kbrooks> RealUbuntuAdvice, OK.  Being a previous Debian user, I thought the switch would be simple. It wasn't.
[21:20] <Lr5_> Anyone knows where I could find the name of the sound card that Ubuntu uses?
[21:20] <compu73rg33k> kbrooks: what do you mean it will still work? I'm trying ot install the distro?
[21:20] <racarter> um.. i get the loading screen from vista and it just stays there
[21:20] <crimsun_> Lr5_: cat /proc/asound/cards
[21:20] <hanzel> TedStevens: yes i have all things set right, just this volume thing is not working
[21:20] <neuro7> can anybody help me with a network problem just installed ubuntu but i have no internet says the decive is there but cant go anywhere
[21:20] <neuro7> pm pls thanks
[21:20] <RealUbuntuAdvice> Unlike Debian, Ubuntu offered no way to switch my window manager to something same like TWM.
[21:20] <racarter> when i try to boot to safe mode i see it just stops when trying to load crcdisk.sys
[21:20] <jrib> RealUbuntuAdvice: we like to keep #ubuntu for support issues only.  Your welcomed to join #ubuntu-offtopic for other discussion.  If you have a support question please just ask it on one line
[21:20] <Lr5_> crimsun_: thanks
[21:21] <kbrooks> compu73rg33k, if it shows /dev/mapper, then it is highly likely that it will still work.
[21:21] <RealUbuntuAdvice> Can anyone help?
[21:21] <kbrooks> compu73rg33k, er, nm.
[21:21] <kbrooks> compu73rg33k, ignore me
[21:21] <compu73rg33k> kbrooks, I'm stuck at the partition properties :(
[21:21] <DrakeJustice_> RealUbuntuAdvice: TWM, look at files in /usr/share/xsessions...
[21:21] <wanger> racarter, hmm, sounds like grub's done it's job then, i'm afraid i don't know anything about vista =(
[21:21] <Dr_Willis> RealUbuntuAdvice just install the others you want. They will be listed in the KDM/GDM session menus
[21:22] <Gekone> Hi all.
[21:22] <racarter> apparently toshiba and microsoft dont know anything about vista either :)
[21:22] <Pici> RealUbuntuAdvice: twm is in the repositories.
[21:22] <bliffle> your computer may have a key combo to hide the display.
[21:22] <bastid_raZor> jimmacdonald, two step process.. first get into a virtual shell by alt+ctrl+f1 then run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg .. after that runs and you have one monitor set up. restart X. then in a terminal run nvidia-settings and set the 2nd monitor up as twinview
[21:22] <Flosoft> hi
[21:22] <Flosoft> I need some help with the setup of an SNMP server
[21:22] <DrakeJustice_> racarter: ?
[21:22] <neuro7> my pc has a realteck network adapter on the mainboard. any help why it wont connect?
[21:22] <Flosoft> I have an UPS on ttyS0
[21:22] <maximus> i already google e read the ubuntu tutorials and nothing
[21:22] <racarter> DrakeJustice_: ?
[21:22] <bastid_raZor> jimmacdonald, restart X one last time and you are done.
[21:22] <racarter> is there a microsoft room in freenode?
[21:22] <wanger> racarter: only thing i can think is that perhaps something's got destroyed if you've resized that partition
[21:22] <DrakeJustice_> racarter: y thoshiba and ms don't kno bout vista??
[21:23] <Flosoft> and I somehow want to connect that to an SNMP server
[21:23] <racarter> DrakeJustice: i called there tech support
[21:23] <chuy_max> maximus, I guess you haven't looked the man?
[21:23] <gary_inNYC> i want to speed up scrolling for my mouse... it seems like a trivial thing to do, but i can't find it.  where do i go?
[21:23] <ac2007> is it normal, when adding KDE to Ubuntu (using the synaptic package manager) for KDE to add a whole bunch of icons to the gnome menu?  Is there a way to stop if from doing that?  I wanted to keep them separate
[21:23] <jrib> racarter: ##windows supports windows
[21:23] <DrakeJustice_> racarter: what did they say?
[21:23] <Powhatanbob> is there a way to open up a terminal that starts in the directory i'm currently viewing with file browser?
[21:23] <racarter> toshiba said call ms, and then it was funny cause ms then had a conference call with toshiba
[21:23] <PirateLeChuck> could anyone advise me how to work out where java is located within my fhs?  i have tried locate etc and found many entries but i am not sure which one will be the actual java implementation that tomcat wants me to define as a variable?
[21:23] <maximus> but it hard to understand how anyone uses a tray system in SO
[21:23] <racarter> the ms support dude was trying to slowly repeat the problem to the toshiba rep
[21:23] <NappyNitrous> This is a good name for Ubuntu.
[21:23] <perrako> Hey guys -- it looks like ALSA is playing sound through the wrong sound card. Normally I'd use alsaconf to fix this, but ubuntu doesn't have alsaconf. How else can I switch it?
[21:23] <tecywiz121> the dbus socket doesn't exist, so gnome-settings-daemon doesn't start
[21:23] <tecywiz121> any ideas
[21:24] <DrakeJustice_> racarter: wuz the problem vista?
[21:24] <jrib> Powhatanbob: install nautilus-open-terminal
[21:24] <chuy_max> maximus, I just installed alltray, nice program ^^
[21:24] <racarter> i dont know, toshiba wants me to bring the laptop to a service center
[21:24] <Powhatanbob> thank you jrib
[21:24] <andy_s> Look at the number of users
[21:24] <maximus> chuy max  my problem is how to use
[21:24] <paulistall> anyone know anything about the KiB units
[21:24] <DrakeJustice_> racarter: what is the problem?
[21:24] <racarter> ms wants me to format the drive.. but i cant do it with their boot disk since it doesnt start
[21:24] <paulistall> can't seem to get rid of them in Conky
[21:24] <Gekone> I've a problem whit burning dvd whit notebook (asus a6jm). If i burn dvd whit original s.o. (win xp home), i can write at 8x but whit another s.o. i can burn at 4x max: I select 8x but the real velocity is 4x. Who can help me?
[21:24] <elli> hi guys, i have a few quastions
[21:25] <racarter> i dont know but most likely it has to do with the way i paritioned the drive
[21:25] <chuy_max> maximus, I just told you, manual clearly explains how to do it, just launch app, and select a window
[21:25] <jrib> paulistall: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kibibyte what do you want to do about them?
[21:25] <racarter> i did it with 5.01 version of knoppix
[21:25] <paulistall> jrib: I can't get rid of them
[21:25] <racarter> i didnt know vista had its own tools to resize at the time
[21:25] <Klanticus> paulistall, 1KiB = 1024b
[21:25] <DrunkenDrake> -- Ubuntu at 11
[21:25] <DrakeJustice_> racarter: so? that knoppix version uses the same mkfs.ext3 command as ubuntu?
[21:25] <jrib> paulistall: why do you want to get rid of them?
[21:25] <paulistall> yeah I know
[21:25] <racarter> DrakeJustice_: I dont know
[21:25] <paulistall> jrib: I want it to display as KB in conky
[21:25] <DrakeJustice_> racarter: can u re-partition?
[21:26] <maximus> chuy but how i choose the window i alread clicked in the window and noting happen
[21:26] <paulistall> jrib: but it is automatically filling in KiB
[21:26] <racarter> i probably could.. how should the new parition look? what changes should i make?
[21:26] <elli> how can i activate the '4-desktops' interface??
[21:26] <MilitantPotato> Is it safe to remove the .deb files from /var/cache/pbuilder/result ?
[21:26] <paulistall> jrib: small thing I know I just think its a stupid looking unit
[21:26] <chuy_max> maximus, bring the window to the front, launch alltray and select the window
[21:26] <HairyHobo> elli: Buy three more monitors.
[21:26] <elli> hahahaha''

[21:31] <MilitantPotato> twoshadetod: who?
[21:31] <DrakeJustice_> racarter: what is this? that partition setup is fine... if windows doesn't boot, grub isn't pointing to the right place, if linux doesn't boot grub is still messed up...

[21:31] <kakoonia> i've got a problem with my terminal window, in bitchx when the messages pass the top of my screen, they vanish

[21:41] <Guerra> chuy_max, so I setup my system to triple boot, and it was working perfectly. XP, Vista, Ubuntu, installed in that order. XP on my SATA primary drive, vista and ubuntu on my 2nd drive, IDE. Grub triple booted perfectly, never had a problem. Then I accidentally left my ubuntu install CD in while booting, and I clicked boot from FIRST hard drive, took me to XP without the grub booter. Since then i can't boot except XP from hard drive.

[21:42] <LjL> twoshadetod: when browsing *any* page? only certain pages? have you tried to reproduce the behavior?
[21:42] <chuy_max> Guerra, maybe you switched boot order at bios?
[21:42] <Pici> macaco: I think theres a bug logged for this.. one second.
[21:42] <Guerra> chuy_max, nope.
[21:42] <maximus> chuy the program window  desapears how can i restore

[22:01] <maximus> picci im try that
[22:02] <maximus> i didnt read that
[22:02] <LjL> Jowi, it's supposed to mark packages as "automatically installed", which means they can be removed with "apt-get autoremove" if no other package depends on them

[22:06] <jukes> hey when im installing 7.10, i boot from the CD, select the top option from the first menu that appears, just after it says its loading GNOME the ubuntu logo appears at the top of the screen 5 times, squashed, in millions of colours then the screen goes blank
[22:06] <[chr0n0s]> hi, my laptop keyboard seem to skip letters while typing, if works fine in windows, any solution for that ??
[22:06] <Ben___> I'm on the command line prior to ubuntu/GNOME booting. "mount" alone gives me read only. I just need the option you put after 'mount' that gives me write access to the mounted volume
[22:06] <[chr0n0s]> jukes, which graphics card ?
[22:06] <CaptainMorgan> juke bad graphics chip ?
[22:06] <jukes> VIA chrome9
[22:06] <ChrisC35> I have setup samba and it works, and I can browse my entire /home/username. However Id like to only share a folder inside there, /home/username/shared. I set that as the path in my share definition, but I am not seeing anything now in the dir (from windows) - after restarting samba of course
[22:07] <ChrisC35> how can I setup the share to point only to a specific dir in my user dir?
[22:07] <Ftroop> grub dosnt see widows at start up anymore is there anyway i can point grub at windows?
[22:07] <jukes> I saw there are problems with that card but people have managed to install ubuntu on their machines, i cant even get that far
[22:07] <CaptainMorgan> Ben___, see: man mount
[22:07] <Ben___> of course, thanks
[22:07] <[chr0n0s]> jukes, try alternate install
[22:08] <jukes> ta
[22:08] <[chr0n0s]> ..
[22:08] <Ftroop> grub dosnt see widows at start up anymore is there anyway i can point grub at windows?
[22:09] <[chr0n0s]> Ftroop, are you sure windows is still there ?
[22:09] <CaptainMorgan> Ftroop, does windows actually exist ?
[22:09] <Ftroop> yes i can see it with fdisk -l
[22:09] <Jowi> Am I the only one awake on a saturday evening? :)
[22:09] <CaptainMorgan> Ftroop, verify the mount setting with /boot/grub/menu.lst

[22:14] <Antioch> I'm trying to run sudo echo 3 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/iwl4965/*/power_level to set my wifi power level, but I receive 'permission denied' error. When I cat the file I get ' 6 (AC) OFF' -- how can I get permission to edit this file?
[22:14] <ziombka> and i have question how check which version of ubuntu i have
[22:14] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[22:15] <ziombka> thanks
[22:15] <bulmer> what should be the correct ownership for /dev/lp0 on dapper? i dont have it
[22:15] <CaptainMorgan> Ftroop, sounds like a minor issue.. it's escaping me right now, maybe someone else knows
[22:15] <Kanuha> Antioch,  enter sudo after the >
[22:15] <Ftroop> CaptainMorgan: yeah i know but i had a hd failure so windows got put on a new hd
[22:15] <ziombka> and i have next question
[22:15] <ziombka> is this safe to upgrade 7.0 to 7.10 ?
[22:16] <jiraff> ziombka, rm -rf /
[22:16] <Ftroop> can i make grub look for OS ?
[22:16] <Sartschent> hi, I just put a new harddrive in my ubuntu server box, how do I mount it on on startup? everytime I reboot my mount is gone
[22:16] <wraz79> captian im going to try and upgrade again
[22:16] <CaptainMorgan> Ftroop, if menu.lst doesn't have an entry for Windows - you need to make one
[22:16] <bulmer> Ftroop-> which partition is windows installed?
[22:16] <LjL> DON'T TYPE THE COMMAND THAT JIRAFF GAVE
[22:16] <ziombka> jisatsu, do u understood question?
[22:16] <ziombka> i know....
[22:16] <Ftroop> hda
[22:16] <Jowi> ziombka, normally you upgrade from one version to the next in line. if you are several versions away you need to check this page:
[22:17] <bulmer> Sartschent-> put an entry on /etc/fstab
[22:17] <Jowi> !upgrade | ziombka
[22:17] <ubotu> ziombka: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[22:17] <ziombka> ok, i know
[22:17] <bulmer> Ftroop-> you must respond with a prefix nick
[22:17] <Antioch> Kanuha, that seemed to clear up the permission denied error, but when I cat it doesn't seem to change to '3' - it stays on 6 (AC) Off even if I unplug my AC adapter... Do you know where I can find any detailed power management settings? The one found under System> Administration> Power Management basically has nothing
[22:17] <ziombka> but i read a lot of informations about destroyed ubuntu when its upgraded
[22:17] <mirak> hi
[22:17] <mirak> I have a huge system crash when load lirc module for hauppauge pvr150 in ubuntu gutsy
[22:17] <FakeSteveJObs> question, does anyone here use the Avant Window Navigator Stacks applet?
[22:17] <Ftroop> bulmer: hda
[22:18] <CaptainMorgan> ziombka, I upgraded a little while ago from 7.04 to 7.10 - completely messed up my system - had to do a clean install
[22:18] <bulmer> Ftroop-> then adjust your menu.lst to add that for windows
[22:18] <Jowi> ziombka, yeah it can happen. backups are your friend. and make sure the ubuntu-desktop meta package is installed to limit the damage.
[22:18] <Sartschent> bulmer: fstab? ok will look into that thx
[22:18] <Intelligitimate> Hello.
[22:18] <Intelligitimate> I need help with a printing issue.
[22:18] <Ftroop> bulmer: ok will try now brb
[22:18] <Kanuha> Antioch, sorry, don't know anything about that. I just ran into the same problem with the echo string and knew how to fix it.
[22:18] <Intelligitimate> What does it mean when you printer color, and everything is a shade of red/pink?
[22:19] <Jowi> FakeSteveJObs, I tried it but it is quite buggy.
[22:19] <zaxius> i installed ubuntu with wubi and x won't start and i can't log in.
[22:19] <CaptainMorgan> Intelligitimate, maybe ask I print/copy store for assistance?
[22:19] <CaptainMorgan> I=a
[22:19] <zaxius> the wubi install asked me to set a password, but that doesn't work.
[22:19] <art> hell_o
[22:19] <FakeSteveJObs> Jowi: i have it installed, used a .deb install thing but i just need the Stacks applet
[22:19] <art> can some1 tell me howto install winetools
[22:19] <art> ?
[22:19] <Antioch> Kanuha, thanks
[22:19] <FakeSteveJObs> several ppl have installed it, but i can't even find the download file
[22:19] <Intelligitimate> CaptainMorgan, I am wondering if it is possibly an Ubuntu related issue
[22:19] <CaptainMorgan> Intelligitimate, join #hardware
[22:20] <ziombka> hmm
[22:20] <ziombka> i have xubuntu so i need xubuntu-desktop
[22:20] <bulmer> whose got dapper? kindly paste the one line of your /dev/lp0 please
[22:20] <Axz> hi guys
[22:20] <CaptainMorgan> Intelligitimate, have you tried it with another system?
[22:20] <holyguyver> My computer refuses to boot from anything but grub, not from aCD, not from a floppy. I have checked my bios & it has nothing to do with trhe bios for I told it to boot from all of the right places, & in fact at one point I told it to boot from nothing, not even the harddrive, & grub still booted me into ubuntu. so the problem is in grub. So how do I tell grub to allow my PC to boot into a cd or floppy?
[22:20] <Intelligitimate> No.
[22:21] <Intelligitimate> I do I set it up as a network printer, so I can try printing from a Windows machine?
[22:21] <Axz> why can't i copy iso file of ubuntu on my 700mb cd
[22:21] <art> how can i install winetools?
[22:21] <Intelligitimate> *How do I
[22:21] <CaptainMorgan> Intelligitimate, test it with another systems to see if the same thing happens
[22:21] <Shapeshifter> When booting Ubuntu I get an error like "/dev/sdb: unexpected inconsistency, run fsck manually. fsck died with exit status 4" and then a maintenance console starts which I have to kill with ctrl-alt-del and then the boot process continues. How to get rid of that?
[22:21] <FakeSteveJObs> art; can't you use Add/Remove program's from the Applications menu?
[22:21] <FakeSteveJObs> thats how i got it
[22:21] <CaptainMorgan> art, sudo apt-get install windtools ?
[22:21] <CaptainMorgan> art, sudo apt-get install winetools ?
[22:21] <Axz> Guys?
[22:21] <Axz> why can't i copy iso file of ubuntu on my 700mb cd
[22:22] <Jowi> FakeSteveJObs, first make sure you have the good repo for awn(for me it is "deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/syzygy42/ feisty avant-window-navigator") then install as normally. then right click on the awn bar and select preferences. in the applets section you should have "stack". simply click on it and click on the " <- " arrow to add it.
[22:22] <Kanuha> anyone know how to get the network icon in the taskbar to show activity with a manual configuration?
[22:22] <CaptainMorgan> Axz, program are you using to attempt to burn ?
[22:22] <Axz> NTI CD -DVD Maker
[22:22] <holyguyver> does anyone know a salution to my problem?
[22:22] <lordzeon> Hi everybody
[22:22] <FakeSteveJObs> thanks Jowi
[22:22] <Axz> CaptainMorgan^
[22:22] <art> sudo apt-get install dont work for that - maybe i dont have repo - but i dont know what add;/
[22:22] <CaptainMorgan> Kanuha, I tried that but didnt' work for me either, maybe try Connect to Other network ?
[22:23] <FakeSteveJObs> art, check http://www.winehq.org/site/docs/wineusr-guide/getting-wine
[22:23] <FakeSteveJObs> excellent how to's
[22:23] <E-mu> Is there a version of Ubuntu that now supports the Intle P35 chipset MB? I could not get the latest version to finish to boot process. I have all Sata Drives including my DVD rom and even changed to AHCI mode in sata and still could not get Ubuntu to boot. It woudl drop to a shell prompt. THis was maybe 2 or 3 weeks ago has there been a new version of Ubuntu released to solve this issue yet?
[22:23] <FakeSteveJObs> j0wi, your the man
[22:23] <Jowi> FakeSteveJObs, no probs. the package I installed is called avant-window-navigator-bzr and awn-core-applets-bzr
[22:23] <bulmer> Kanuha what do you want? to show what?
[22:23] <Axz> CaptainMorgan so it depends on bruning programs?
[22:23] <art> FakeSteveJObs, ok - ill try
[22:23] <Axz> if i used ubuntu burning program will succed?
[22:23] <_Scou1> How can I make a list of the programs I have installed, so I can restore my system easily
[22:23] <_Scou1> ?
[22:23] <lordzeon> Does anyone can help me ? I'm trying to make my wifi cards running in master mode
[22:23] <ziombka> so upgrade is worth it, to worry about my system ?
[22:24] <E-mu> None of the other flavors of the latest versions of DSL, Knoppix, PClinuxOS 2007, etc etc would install either except Mandriva 2008 One. THats the only oen that supported my MB
[22:24] <xIke_> anybody know where ubuntus kernels are?
[22:24] <CaptainMorgan> Axz there's many pieces of software available - try a handful to see if one may work
[22:24] <Kanuha> bulmer, I want the icon to show activity on the network
[22:24] <LjL> xIke_: "where" they are?
[22:24] <Axz>  i try

[22:24] <leo_rockw> hello, anybody here has a successful story with a minidisc player?
[22:24] <FakeSteveJObs> art; if you need help, let me know
[22:25] <FakeSteveJObs> it worked for me, and i'm a complete noob
[22:25] <MeeKs> i just installed ubuntu 7.10 on my macbook, what are some must have apps i should get?
[22:25] <leo_rockw> MeeKs: depends on what you want to do
[22:25] <xIke_> LjL, I'm having issues with one I was trying to compile...trying to track it down and get rid of it
[22:25] <LjL> Jowi, i think i answered you...?
[22:25] <CaptainMorgan> MeeKs, go to Synaptic and have a peek around
[22:25] <MeeKs> usenet, IM, email web dvd burning etc...
[22:25] <Jeffrey1> how do I enable Remote desktop SERVER so I can remote into my machine
[22:25] <FakeSteveJObs> MeeKs, why would you do that :D
[22:25] <LjL> xIke_, if you were *compiling* it, only you can know where you put it
[22:25] <LjL> !kernel > xIke_    (xIke_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[22:26] <Jowi> LjL, Something was up with my xchat. I ddin't see any leave/join messages or replies until I rejoined a few minutes ago.
[22:26] <LjL> Jowi, it's supposed to mark packages as "automatically installed", which means they can be removed with "apt-get autoremove" if no other package depends on them
[22:26] <leo_rockw> MeeKs: you probly have all that (i never used ubuntu, but kubuntu)
[22:26] <art> FakeSteveJObs, ok - on that page i didnt find nothing about winetools - only wine installation guid
[22:26] <E-mu> I have to check the newsgroups and latest version of Ubuntu I was asking here to see if anyone had a similiar PC setup like mine. Gigabyte or ASus MB with the P35 chipset
[22:26] <LjL> Jowi: last time i tried it, however, it didn't seem to work as (not) advertized
[22:26] <lordzeon> Why ubuntu send me a "Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06)" when i try to run master mode ? (prism2.5, rtl8187 & rt2500)
[22:26] <bulmer> whose got dapper? kindly paste the one line of your /dev/lp0 please
[22:26] <CaptainMorgan> MeeKs, leo_rockw agreed, there's a lot of default stuff installed, check them out
[22:26] <MeeKs> i need to instal gaim
[22:26] <E-mu> even MSI doesn't matter they all have the new ICH9 controllers
[22:26] <Jowi> LjL, ah. thanks for the info. is the man page available in Gutsy?
[22:26] <MeeKs> but its on in the add remove apps
[22:26] <leo_rockw> MeeKs: gaim doesn't exist anymore
[22:27] <MeeKs> really
[22:27] <MeeKs> so what should i use
[22:27] <CaptainMorgan> MeeKs, Pidgin is the equivlaent
[22:27] <FakeSteveJObs> pidgin
[22:27] <leo_rockw> MeeKs: it changed its name to pidgin
[22:27] <MeeKs> ah
[22:27] <CaptainMorgan> !pidgin
[22:27] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It is available in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), but not previous versions. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info. To install Pidgin please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallPidgin2.0
[22:27] <xIke_> Ljl, ok...the problem is that apt-get is complaining about the package for the kernel, even though I didn't install the kernel with apt-get....
[22:27] <LjL> Jowi: no. i don't think i remember where i got the information from
[22:27] <FakeSteveJObs> art; i pm'ed you
[22:27] <Kanuha> bulmer, thx, can I get rid of the other icon on the taskbar?
[22:27] <LjL> xIke_: pastebin the exact errors please
[22:27] <FakeSteveJObs> MeeKs, i think you should install the Bluetooth package
[22:27] <bulmer> Kanuha-> i think so, but i dont remember how
[22:27] <MeeKs> where do i get that
[22:28] <FakeSteveJObs> since your macbook has a bluetooth chip inside, and you might want to use it
[22:28] <MeeKs> i want to use my bluetooth mouse
[22:28] <art> FakeSteveJObs, i just find winetools page
[22:28] <Kanuha> bulmer, thx
[22:28] <bulmer> Kanuha-> right click?
[22:28] <Shapeshifter> When booting Ubuntu I get an error like "/dev/sdb: unexpected inconsistency, run fsck manually. fsck died with exit status 4" and then a maintenance console starts which I have to kill with ctrl-alt-del and then the boot process continues. How to get rid of that?
[22:28] <MeeKs> i have bluetooth analyzer
[22:28] <FakeSteveJObs> you can install it on the Add/Remove button in the Applications menu
[22:28] <CaptainMorgan> FakeSteveJObs, Bluetooth Anaylzer is default
[22:28] <_Scou1> How do I get a list of my installed programs so I can easily restore my system?
[22:28] <MeeKs> what am i looking for
[22:28] <bulmer> whose got dapper? kindly paste the one line of your /dev/lp0 please
[22:28] <FakeSteveJObs> install the complete package, it recommends that
[22:28] <ziombka> can somebody tell me

[22:28] <FakeSteveJObs> thanks CaptainMorgan
[22:28] <Jeffrey1> how do I enable Remote desktop SERVER so I can remote into my machine
[22:29] <xIke_> LjL, http://pastebin.com/m4866d1fe
[22:29] <MeeKs> is there a name for it FakeSteveJObs
[22:29] <FakeSteveJObs> Art; glad you found the page!
[22:29] <Jowi> LjL, so basicly it can work like this: xfce4-whatever list xfce4-mixer as dependency and when removing xfce4-whatever it want to remove xfce4-mixer as well. apt-mark can make xfce4-mixer to not be removed? (just want to get it clarified)
[22:29] <MeeKs> im not seeing the complete package
[22:29] <codeshah> hmm, when I start 'firefox' I am getting a segmentation fault core dumped...... a
[22:29] <Pici> Jeffrey1: System>Preferences>Remote Desktop
[22:29] <CaptainMorgan> Shapeshifter, have you run fsck manually ?
[22:29] <codeshah> any ideas? or where can I check the logs
[22:29] <jatt`> codeshah: strace firefox
[22:29] <Kanuha> bulmer, no option to quit or remove from taskbar on right click
[22:30] <Jeffrey1> Pici: THANKS!
[22:30] <CaptainMorgan> ziombka, I'm pretty satisfied over my upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 if that says anhything
[22:30] <bulmer> Kanuha-> i dont know how
[22:30] <mohamed_> hello all, anyone know how to enable framebuffer to use it with vdr softdevice ?
[22:30] <codeshah> jatt`, thanks
[22:30] <Ftroop> bulmer: thankyou thats sorted it :)
[22:30] <LjL> Jowi: yes, however i think that just doing "sudo apt-get install xfce4-mixer" will have the same effect: mark it as manually installed. "apt-mark markauto", however, as opposed to "apt-mark unmarkauto", will be harder to "simulate"
[22:30] <ziombka> CaptainMorgan, but what gave you upgrade?
[22:30] <Pici> !framebuffer | mohamed_ try reading this
[22:30] <ubotu> mohamed_ try reading this: If you would like information on framebuffers, please visit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer
[22:31] <tortho> Is there a way to downgrade to feisty from gutsy? similar to the upgrade process? and will it work properlly?
[22:31] <LjL> Jowi: note, anyway, that apt-get will *never* remove unused dependencies unless you explicily specify the "autoremove" option
[22:31] <Pici> !downgrade | tortho
[22:31] <ubotu> tortho: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[22:31] <CaptainMorgan> ziombka, I performed a clean install
[22:31] <Jowi> LjL, ok. then the intended use for it is clear. thanks a lot for the info.
[22:31] <Pici> tortho: aka: no.
[22:31] <wraz79> captian, im upgrading right now does it being a realteck ethernet adapter/ its built in to my mobo
[22:31] <E-mu> how new is 7.10?
[22:31] <bulmer> whose got dapper? kindly paste the one line of your /dev/lp0 please
[22:31] <tortho> Pici: yes, gutsy is more or less only problems and things not working properlly...
[22:32] <ziombka> but for what? what give me new version. Software is this same, so for what i need to upgrade or install new
[22:32] <CaptainMorgan> !Gutsy
[22:32] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) is the latest version of Ubuntu. Upgrading to Gutsy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades - Downloading: http://www.ubuntu.com/download - Please use bittorrent to download if possible, see !torrents
[22:32] <ziombka> ehh
[22:32] <ziombka> ok
[22:32] <leo_rockw> ziombka: bug fixes, newer versions of software, new features, etc
[22:32] <E-mu> kewl but how new is it?
[22:32] <E-mu> weeks, months?
[22:32] <CaptainMorgan> tortho, what problems are you experiencing ??
[22:32] <Jowi> E-mu, weeks
[22:32] <leo_rockw> E-mu: october 18th it came out
[22:33] <E-mu> thanks
[22:33] <CaptainMorgan> tortho, I've experienced great things from the new release.....
[22:33] <ziombka> if i will have problems with upgrade, then what will be destroyed
[22:33] <ziombka> ?
[22:33] <CaptainMorgan> ziombka, nothing - if you BACKUP your DATA!
[22:33] <E-mu> will it support Intel P35 or G33 chipsets using the ICH9 northbridge?
[22:33] <Jowi> ziombka, you can never tell. it might be flawless and it might not be. backup what you can't live without.
[22:33] <ziombka> ok, ok but i ask
[22:34] <ziombka> yes i backup
[22:34] <ziombka> but not all
[22:34] <ziombka> i dont have enough space
[22:34] <tortho> CaptainMorgan: cpu freq scaling not working, cpu fan starts at 70 degrC and never stops, just spinning at full speed even at temperatures down to 33 degr.. Compiz is "hanging the screen, and switching to another desktop makes the panel bar dissapears.
[22:34] <hipitihop> can someone help me get past a "Authentication failed" in update-manager after accepting upgrade to Gutsy ?
[22:34] <leo_rockw> ziombka: do you have your home in a different partition?
[22:34] <CaptainMorgan> ziombka, backup is crucial, if you can't backup now, then wait to upgrade
[22:34] <tortho> CaptainMorgan: and then I have to ctrl+alt+backspace..
[22:34] <ziombka> no, on this same is home
[22:35] <xIke_> LjL, http://pastebin.com/m4866d1fe
[22:35] <leo_rockw> then backup home
[22:35] <hipitihop> I have no thrid party repositories and yes everything is up to date
[22:35] <Jowi> ziombka, I can recomment to have /home on a different partition and have a 6-7 GB parttion of free space available. then you can install new version on the empy partition and have both the old and new system use the same /home
[22:35] <Jowi> s/recomment/recommend
[22:35] <CaptainMorgan> tortho, for the graphics... you can turn them off I believe
[22:35] <tortho> CaptainMorgan: Entering a "terminal" with alt+ctrl + Fxx makes a blank screen and a reboot is needed :-) That should be it i guess... and the computer is also a lot slower than with feisty.
[22:35] <CaptainMorgan> tortho, did you upgrade from a previous version or did you did a clean install ?
[22:36] <FakeSteveJObs> MeeKs, does the macbook wireless connection work out of the box when you installed Ubuntu?
[22:36] <Jowi> ziombka, that way you can backup /etc at least without much space wasted.
[22:36] <DrakeJustice_> LjL: slinux is a channel for my ubuntu-mod... www.sscreen.org
[22:36] <pwnt-> I'm trying to record a streaming live video using VLC. I'm right now viewing that broadcast with connecting VLC to http://mylocalhost:port - I want to record it too so I tried to use transcode, it records good. but no sound in the mpeg that been recorded, anybody is experienced with that one
[22:36] <pwnt-> but there when i go file > wizard, and try to transcode. The recording will be going on without previwing the video. therfore I think i can't record the sound I think.
[22:36] <MeeKs> FakeSteveJObs: nope
[22:36] <MeeKs> im on wired right now
[22:36] <tortho> CaptainMorgan: I have dissabled compiz, but I can see from system monitor that this xgl thing sucks a lot of cpu power. I did a upgrade without any errors...
[22:36] <FakeSteveJObs> ah...thought so
[22:36] <FakeSteveJObs> probably need to use the so called ndiswrapper..
[22:36] <MeeKs> but i want to get bluetooth and that working
[22:36] <MeeKs> yea
[22:36] <MeeKs> not sure on 7.10
[22:37] <MeeKs> did it on the last release
[22:37] <FakeSteveJObs> those are the only two things that i want to know its working before i dual boot with leopard
[22:37] <leo_rockw> tortho: why are you using xgl?
[22:37] <tortho> CaptainMorgan: The biggest problem is cpu stuck at 800Mhz when it is cappable for 1860Mhz and the fan at full speed.
[22:37] <CaptainMorgan> tortho, upgrade from a previous version has been known to cause issues with some users - especially me - try a clean install before you rule the new version completely out - that is, if you can do that
[22:37] <FakeSteveJObs> MeeKs, i'm running 7.10 (clean install, on desktop)
[22:37] <MeeKs> im on a mac pro now
[22:37] <MeeKs> and just got this macbook
[22:37] <MeeKs> for ubuntu
[22:38] <tortho> leo_rockw: ? I don't know.. Ubuntus decision..
[22:38] <MeeKs> wifi works
[22:38] <MeeKs> i know that
[22:38] <Pici> !enter | MeeKs

[22:38] <MeeKs> there is a wiki
[22:38] <tiger__> hi there, I am unable to compile alsa for kernel 2.6.24-rc1 !! I am getting weird error " Makefile:119: *** Output directory (O=...) specifies kernel src dir.  Stop." ?
[22:38] <leo_rockw> tortho: you don't need xgl
[22:38] <tiger__> The strange thing, that I was able to compile nvidia-source but not alsa-source ? does make-kpkg have anything to do with this ?
[22:38] <leo_rockw> tortho: xgl was used for ATI + compiz
[22:38] <tortho> CaptainMorgan: That is a hell of a job to install everything again... and backups etc.. :-(
[22:38] <Pici> leo_rockw: is used, not was.
[22:39] <leo_rockw> tortho: since the new ati drivers come w/ aiglx, xgl is not needed anymore
[22:39] <CaptainMorgan> tortho, like I said.. "if you can..." :)
[22:39] <tortho> leo_rockw:  how can I then get rid of it?
[22:39] <CaptainMorgan> tortho, to me, it was worth it
[22:39] <Jowi> tortho, I can't give precise info but it sounds like laptop-mode is acting up. normally a laptop should only downscale CPU if on battery power. no idea how to fix it though (no laptop around)
[22:39] <leo_rockw> tortho: sudo apt-get remove xserver-xgl
[22:39] <LjL> xIke_ try doing "sudo dpkg -r linux-image-<IP_ADDRESS>" (of course, DON'T reboot before being sure you have a working kernel)
[22:39] <leo_rockw> tortho: but your current session may stop working
[22:40] <leo_rockw> tortho: you need to create a new one that doesn't use xgl
[22:40] <ziombka> and from where i can know how long time ago i installed my system?
[22:40] <Pici> leo_rockw: Gutsy's fglrx drivers do NOT support aiglx.
[22:41] <leo_rockw> Pici: no, but ATI's do
[22:41] <Pici> leo_rockw: Okay, just making sure that you knew that.
[22:41] <tortho> leo_rockw: I'll give it a try :-) Any hint on creating a new one?
[22:41] <leo_rockw> tortho: yeah, Pici is right, gutsy's fglrx drivers do not support AIGLX
[22:41] <Pici> leo_rockw: And support isnt great on them either, from what I hear.
[22:41] <LjL> leo_rockw, i recommend that (if effects really have to be used), Xgl be used on ATI cards. using drivers not from the repositories is only likely to lead to trouble.
[22:42] <leo_rockw> Pici: no, not great, true
[22:42] <xIke_> LjL, yeah, already tried that, it says that the package is in a inconsistent state and needs to be reinstalled first
[22:42] <leo_rockw> LjL: as of now the quality of the ATI drivers is better than gutsy's w/ xgl
[22:42] <leo_rockw> LjL: imo
[22:43] <leo_rockw> tortho: if you're not going to use compiz at all, you won't need xgl anyway (or ati's new drivers)
[22:43] <ziombka> somebody know how can i check how old is my system, or when i formated partition?
[22:43] <LjL> leo_rockw, i don't know (though i was told otherwise), but that's not the point. the point is that an Xorg driver (plus kernel module!) is something very important, which should NEVER come from anywhere that is not the official Ubuntu repositories. we've seen to many people's systems break on, say, a kernel update, because of things like that.
[22:43] <pwnt-> anybody have experience in transcoding in VLC?
[22:44] <leo_rockw> LjL: you're 100% right
