[11:33] <anabolix> ?
[11:33] <Mo|-|cTeP> yor stuped beach
[11:33] <K-4U> anabolix: The error message should tell you the exact thing to enter
[11:33] <Mo|-|cTeP> you stuped beach
[11:34] <bazhang> Mo|-|cTeP, please dont
[11:34] <db106> hey, I have 2 directories I need to zip up, how do I do this?
[11:34] <db106> (over ssh, command line)
[11:35] <K-4U> !tar
[11:35] <db106> assume I'm just outside the 2 directories, and I know their 2 names
[11:35] <K-4U> db106: type man tar
[11:35] <Mo|-|cTeP> you vsg gavno!!
[11:36] <Mo|-|cTeP> bitchs of slut all of you!
[11:36] <DJones> !ops | Mo|-|cTeP
[11:36] <gordonjcp> Mo|-|cTeP: you're not very good at trolling, are you?
[11:36] <db106> vagoooooo ¬.¬
[11:36] <db106> isn't he polite
[11:36] <elkbuntu> gordonjcp, did he get a reaction?
[11:36] <gordonjcp> elkbuntu: yes, I told him he wasn't very good at trolling
[11:37] <elkbuntu> gordonjcp, then he succeeded at trolling quite adequately.
[11:37] <gordonjcp> elkbuntu: not a great reaction, all things considered
[11:37] <gordonjcp> elkbuntu: not really /adequate/ if you know what I mean
[11:37] <soundray> db106: does it have to be zip?
[11:37] <ick> how to upgrade to firefox 3 official?
[11:38] <ick> my firefox 3 is beta
[11:38] <soundray> ick: 'sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install firefox'
[11:39] <ghindo_> Does anybody know how to manually remove software compiled from source?
[11:39] <microwaver> Hello, is there an alterniite to taskel?
[11:39] <ick> soundray: ok thx
[11:39] <ick> exit
[11:39] <soundray> ghindo_: look in the Makefile inside the compile directory. It may have an 'uninstall' section, in which case you can do 'sudo make uninstall'
[11:39] <ick> exit
[11:39] <db106> silly question, how do i close the man page
[11:40] <gordonjcp> ghindo_: it's not easy - you need to find all the files installed and delete manually
[11:40] <soundray> db106: with 'q'
[11:40] <microwaver> db106, pres q
[11:40] <db106> cheers
[11:40] <Algyz> why nautilus alone is using 80MB RAM?
[11:40] <gordonjcp> ghindo_: and also, some of those files may have overwritten files from packages,
[11:40] <Algyz> and it is not even opened :/
[11:40] <soundray> db106: have you worked out how you're going to do it?
[11:40] <soundray> Algyz: nautilus starts up with gnome
[11:40] <db106> not quite
[11:40] <anabolix> k-4u: i used the command given, but it doesnt do it
[11:41] <db106> something like: sudo tar -czf "filename" ....
[11:41] <anabolix> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1/media/SimpleDrive -o force
[11:41] <soundray> Algyz: if you're short of RAM, you're better off using a desktop environment other than gnome
[11:41] <db106> but i don't know how to mark the folders Algorithms, and Algorithms2 for inclusion
[11:41] <Algyz> like an hour ago it was using ~200megs, too much :/
[11:41] <soundray> db106: I don't think you should use sudo, unless you know you have to.
[11:41] <knightwise_> does anybody know what ports i need to forward when i want to setup a vpn server for linux (pptp)
[11:42] <ghindo_> soundray: When I try 'sudo make uninstall', I get 'make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'.  Stop.'
[11:42] <db106> soundray, only going by the example here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=573290
[11:42] <soundray> db106: 'tar zcf Algorithms1.tar.gz Algorithms/'
[11:42] <db106> that's just the one folder though, how do I get both in?
[11:42] <soundray> ghindo_: you didn't read my instructions very carefully now, did you?
[11:42] <db106> Algorithms, Algorithms2
[11:43] <Icomey> I'm having a problem with grub not wanting to boot my install, or anything.
[11:43] <soundray> db106: why not create a second .tar.gz for Algorithms2 ?
[11:43] <Icomey> I installed to a usb harddrive.
[11:43] <ghindo_> soundray: The Makefile had an uninstall section...is that what you are talking about?
[11:43] <anabolix> help, i need to force mount something, and the error msg i get provides me with the command to do so, but it doesnt work, any thoughts?
[11:43] <Icomey> It gives me an error about unable to mount the partition or sommat.
[11:43] <db106> because that means 2 separate transfers, and I want to make 1, and them make a cup of tea
[11:43] <anabolix> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1/media/SimpleDrive -o force
[11:44] <Icomey> anabolix, you're missing a space.
[11:44] <soundray> ghindo_: yes -- but either it wasn't called uninstall, or you mistyped
[11:44] <Icomey> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/SimpleDrive -o force
[11:44] <anabolix> icomey: where?
[11:44] <anabolix> oh ok
[11:44] <anabolix> thanks
[11:44] <Icomey> Yep.
[11:44] <Algyz> wel well, usage of ram by nautilus increasing and increasing again :(
[11:45] <Algyz> 83MB now :/
[11:45] <Algyz> is it bug?
[11:45] <soundray> Algyz: please do not report your nautilus memory usage here. It is not a bug
[11:45] <Algyz> but it is not launched :|
[11:46] <soundray> Algyz: I told you, it gets launched together with gnome
[11:46] <ghindo_> soundray: Oh, it looks like I forgot to configure first.  Or something.
[11:46] <Algyz> and increasing ram usage until indefinite ?
[11:46] <soundray> Algyz: it doesn't
[11:46] <msshams> how can i know my kernel version?
[11:47] <ghindo_> soundray, gordonjcp:  Thanks for the help, I was able to uninstall it.
[11:47] <ghindo_> msshams: Type "uname -a" in the terminal
[11:47] <DJones> !version | msshams
[11:48] <db106> cheers for all
[11:48] <DJones> msshams: Ignore that factiod from ubottu, its the wrong one, that only gives the Ubuntu version, not the kernel version
[11:49] <Sparc__> how do I add verisign's certificate so that wget and other linux programs stop throwing errors?
[11:49] <Sparc__> when I try to access sites with verisign certs
[11:50] <Anarhist> hi when i try to install python-dev i get 'python-dev: Depends: python2.5-dev (>= 2.5.2) but it is not going to be installed', is this a bug?
[11:51] <andycan> Firefox doesnt have any bars to close/minimize, i cant see the panel either, it takes up the whole screen
[11:51] <soundray> Anarhist: does it still happen when you do a 'sudo apt-get update' first?
[11:51] <soundray> andycan: hit F11
[11:51] <erUSUL> msshams: uname -a
[11:52] <Anarhist> soundray, yes
[11:52] <andycan> soundray: thanks, that did the trick
[11:53] <soundray> andycan: F11 takes you in and out of fullscreen mode in firefox and some other programs
[11:53] <soundray> Anarhist: can you 'sudo apt-get install python2.5-dev'?
[11:54] <flabr> hi there..i am on Ubuntu live CD ... i wonder what is the command in terminal mode in order to check which USB is running on 2.0 ?
[11:54] <Anarhist> soundray, python2.5-dev: Depends: python2.5 (= 2.5.2-2ubuntu4) but 2.5.2-2ubuntu5 is to be installed
[11:54] <flabr> or is there a GUI for that?
[11:55] <andycan> soundray: f11 went in fullscreen, but then i returned into normal mode it fit back between gnome panels. I guess it was some compiz error
[11:55] <soundray> Anarhist: it could be a temporary packaging bug. Are you using the main repository or a mirror?
[11:55] <flabr> lsusb does not tell me which ver of USB is
[11:55] <bazhang> flabr, what about lshw
[11:55] <Anarhist> soundray, i've not changed my repos since installing ubuntu, so i assume i am using main repo
[11:55] <koshari> flabr do you suspect your 2.0 hardware is not running fast?
[11:56] <HZ> hey how is life everyone, look I have a U3 USB stick and I can't mount it. can anybody help me?
[11:56] <soundray> Anarhist: that's not a safe assumption -- the default setting is picked based on your location. Check with System-Administration-Software Sources and switch to main server if it's not set already. Then try again.
[11:57] <flabr> koshari, the reason for my question is that i have Suse 11 and doing lsusb there i just see 1.1 USB ... i then booted into Ubuntu Live and a device dvbt i cannot list lsusb with Suse 11 ... i can with ubuntu
[11:57] <flabr> i tought my mobo usb 2.0 was not working
[11:57] <rich_> I am trying to get my keyboard backlight working, can anyone explain how I can do this?
[11:57] <flabr> but seems to be working...just want to be sure that the usb i list with ubuntu are 2.0
[11:58] <soundray> flabr: run 'lshw | grep -i ehci'. If you get a line saying 'ehci bus master', then you have 2.0
[11:58] <koshari> flabr: hmm i would suspect they would be the same kernel version as well?
[11:58] <HZ> any inf abt U3 USB on linux and how to mount it?
[11:58] <Anarhist> soundray, ok, it was set to UK, i changed to main server by the problem is *still there* i can't instally python-dev
[11:59] <flabr> koshari: suse 11 runs latest kernel while this ubuntu live cd has 2.6.24
[11:59] <flabr> suse has 2.6.25
[12:00] <flabr> what is the root password for this live ubuntu cd_
[12:00] <soundray> Anarhist: please consider reporting a bug on launchpad. To work around this problem, find the python2.5-dev file in your /var/cache/apt/archives and run 'sudo dpkg -i --force-depends python2.5-dev_*.deb'
[12:01] <soundray> Anarhist: substituting the actual file name
[12:01] <soundray> flabr: there is none. Use sudo
[12:01] <Anarhist> soundray, it's not urgently needed, i'm going to file a bug
[12:01] <K-4U> with what command can i see how much free space i've got left on my HD?
[12:02] <soundray> K-4U: df -h
[12:02] <bazhang> df -h
[12:02] <K-4U> thnx :P
[12:02] <flabr> this is the output of that command u sent ... http://pastebin.com/m22f9da89
[12:02] <flabr> do i have or not usb 2.0 working ?
[12:02] <soundray> flabr: I told you what to look for
[12:02] <knightwise_> I would like to know how to adjust my ubuntu vpn server so i can still surf when i connect
[12:04] <acce245> I have a question.
[12:04] <knightwise_> !ask
[12:04] <flabr> soundray: i do see bus master there ... but is it just for 2 usb ports_
[12:04] <flabr> ?
[12:04] <acce245> Ok, so, how do I change my alsa sample rate?
[12:05] <soundray> flabr: no
[12:05] <flabr>  soundray: man...thanks a lot...so the issue is with the latest kernel than
[12:05] <flabr> tought it was with my mobo
[12:06] <acce245> my alsa sample rate is 44.1khz, but I believe it needs to be 48
[12:09] <slicky> how do i use udptunnel correct?
[12:10] <Jonty> how can I use apt-get to install firefox 3
[12:10] <bazhang> Jonty, in gutsy or hardy
[12:10] <soundray> Jonty: which ubuntu version?
[12:10] <DistroJockey> slicky, read man udptunnel ?
[12:10] <Jonty> soundray: gutsy
[12:10] <GNU\colossus> anyone in here used `ubuntu-vm-builder` yet?
[12:10] <koshari> Jonty: you may need to use the backports
[12:11] <acce245> can someone explain how to change alsa sample rate?  or is it not possible?
[12:11] <soundray> !backports > Jonty
[12:11] <soundray> Jonty: once you've enabled the backports repo, you can 'sudo apt-get install firefox-3.0'. Don't forget to update your launchers.
[12:12] <piet> i want to post a message
[12:13] <Jonty> soundray: ah, right, I see. That seems to lose all my config and also be RC3. No way of just making firefox update to the next version normally, then?
[12:13] <soundray> piet: you just did
[12:13] <piet> yes I did
[12:13] <marko_> let's say when i open up the terminal it get's me to my home directory... can i change that ? that it promps (or how it's written) directly to another directory
[12:13] <slicky> how do i forward udp packages via a socks5 proxy?
[12:16] <soundray> Jonty: oh, strange. On my gutsy, the best I get on backports is beta4... You could do an installation from a .tar.gz, bypassing the package manager. Or consider upgrading to hardy.
[12:16] <legend2440> marko_: if you install    nautilus-open-terminal   it adds a right click option so you can open terminal in any folder
[12:16] <marko_> legend2440, thanks it get's me a little closer to what i want to do :)
[12:16] <Jonty> soundray: what would I do if I was on hardy?
[12:17] <soundray> Jonty: when you upgrade gutsy to hardy, firefox gets updated to 3.0 automatically.
[12:17] <[diablo]> guys, for Ubuntu 8.04 and Xen specific questions... here or another channel please?
[12:17] <Jonty> soundray: ok
[12:17] <slicky> how do i forward udp packages via a socks5 proxy?
[12:18] <hh_> hallo
[12:18] <soundray> [diablo]: try here -- but be patient and repeat your question after 10+ minutes
[12:18] <Chicoinc> hallo
[12:18] <magnetron> slicky, you don't
[12:18] <[diablo]> thanks soundray
[12:19] <koshari> anyone know why gnome device manager is missing out of HH?
[12:19] <slicky> magnetron, http://lib.ru/SECURITY/socks5-faq.txt#q9
[12:19] <soundray> koshari: it's been renamed
[12:19] <[diablo]> well, I'm attempting to boot the xen-3.2 kernel for 8.04 ... on Ubuntu Desktop. .... when it gets to GDM / X , everything bombs
[12:19] <koshari> soundray what to?
[12:19] <[diablo]> generic is fine btw
[12:20] <[diablo]> x64 box
[12:20] <soundray> koshari: sorry, can't remember. Try 'apt-cache search gnome device manager'
[12:20] <magnetron> slicky, your apps need to support UDP over socks. almost no apps do
[12:21] <koshari> soundray i think your refering o the restricted driver manager, rather than the gtk version of hal-device
[12:21] <soundray> koshari: no, I'm not
[12:21] <slicky> magnetron, dcpp ?
[12:21] <jameslr> magnetron: sounds like he's trying to hide torrent traffic.
[12:21] <jameslr> slicky: is that what you're doing?
[12:21] <Chicoinc> hi. i am very noob. i wonder if any of you could help me.
[12:21] <knightwise_> is there a way to connect the vpn ethernet interface of the vpn server in ubuntu to the phisical network card ? so that way i can surf when i dail in via vpn ?
[12:21] <Rincewynde> Can someone help me with my SPDIF connection in Hardy Heron? Currently only one application at once can use the Coax, so if I have a music player running, and the an IM client makes a noise, the music is cut out. Thanks
[12:21] <slicky> no, im not hiding torrent traffic
[12:21] <db92> is the gnome-system-monitor the only task manager with a gui available in ubuntu?
[12:22] <jameslr> slicky: what are you wanting to do then?
[12:22] <magnetron> slicky, does dcpp support udp over socks5?
[12:22] <koshari> soundray well the gnome device manager isnt installed by default and need to be installed from the repos,
[12:22] <slicky> dcpp does..
[12:22] <magnetron> slicky, then use it.
[12:22] <Pici> Chicoinc: Just ask the channel your question.
[12:23] <koshari> Chicoinc: probly someone may if you tell em your prob
[12:23] <magnetron> slicky, this isn't a Tor question, right?
[12:23] <slicky> magnetron, no it´s not..
[12:23] <Chicoinc> i cant mount my usb ket. the error messsage says somethung like -- line 11 in /etc/fstab i unvalid.
[12:23] <slicky> magnetron, i want to be in active mode on dcpp with a socks5 proxy
[12:24] <Chicoinc> sorry i'm a slow typer
[12:24] <magnetron> slicky, if dcpp supports socks5, tell it to use socks5.
[12:25] <slicky> magnetron, i do.. and it works.. in passive mode
[12:25] <soundray> !paste | Chicoinc, please pastebin your /etc/fstab
[12:25] <magnetron> slicky, are talking about receiving or sending UDP packets?
[12:26] <slicky> both
[12:26] <Chicoinc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24188/
[12:26] <Chicoinc> i hope this is right
[12:27] <magnetron> slicky, receiving UDP packets over a SOCKS proxy is impossible.
[12:27] <soundray> Chicoinc: the problem is the space in the name of the mountpoints. Try /media/Disk_2 instead
[12:28] <soundray> Chicoinc: also, you have duplicates in there.
[12:28] <soundray> Chicoinc: I suggest you get rid  of lines 14-16
[12:28] <magnetron> slicky, what you need is something like a VPN. SSH can provide you with a TUN/TAP interface
[12:29] <slicky> im using a ssh tunnel
[12:30] <slicky> ssh -P 9999<EMAIL_ADDRESS>   then in dcpp i use localhost and port 9999 to connect to
[12:30] <aimtrainer> hi! Im looking for a cheap webcam that works out of the box under hardy - can anybody recommand one?
[12:31] <magnetron> slicky, you mean -D, not -P
[12:31] <magnetron> !hardware | aimtrainer
[12:31] <slicky> yes -D
[12:31] <bazhang> !webcams | aimtrainer
[12:32] <bes1> hy all
[12:32] <legend2440> soundray: line 13 in Chicoinc fstab can be deleted also right.?  since line 8 mounts the swap by uuid
[12:32] <Chicoinc> Ok now i (the error message) says only mount can dev/sdb1 as /media/Disk_2
[12:33] <soundray> legend2440: the whole thing is a bit haphazard
[12:33] <slicky> can ssh forward udp?
[12:33] <soundray> legend2440: yes, I agree ( Chicoinc)
[12:33] <PodMan99a> hey all if the /lib64 folder exists does that prove the machine was installed as a 64bit?
[12:33] <bes1> ... i need a music player ...who is the best player
[12:33] <legend2440> Chicoinc: did you rename the /media/Disk 2 to /media Disk_2?
[12:33] <soundray> Chicoinc: use 'sudo mount...'
[12:33] <spirit2> I'm trying to install some software, but the configure script is failing, halp: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24189/
[12:34] <Chicoinc> yes i did
[12:35] <OB1FoShoB> bes1: not sure if it's best for music, but it will play everything else, video included 'VLC media player'
[12:35] <soundray> Chicoinc: to allow users to mount the device, replace 'errors=remount-ro' with 'user' in line 12
[12:35] <bazhang> !players | bes1
[12:35] <soundray> PodMan99a: no, but it's a pretty strong indication
[12:36] <PodMan99a> soundray, cool ... as for some reason its booting a 32bit kernel.... i may have apt;d the wrong one at some point
[12:36] <bes1> ... tnx man
[12:36] <OB1FoShoB> haven't been able to get XMMS/2 to work under hardy, but it looks more like winamp
[12:36] <bazhang> !xmms
[12:36] <soundray> PodMan99a: I wouldn't have  thought that would work at all...
[12:36] <Chicoinc> i'm posting the new fstab here http://paste.ubuntu.com/24190/
[12:37] <OB1FoShoB> is there a list of these !commands u are typing in somewhere?
[12:37] <PodMan99a> soundray, neither would i ... but its my best bet
[12:38] <bazhang> http://jussi01.com/web/factoids.cgi? OB1FoShoB
[12:38] <OB1FoShoB> bazhang: thank ya ;-)
[12:38] <soundray> Chicoinc: how did you get to this fstab in the first place? A lot of it just doesn't make sense
[12:38] <bazhang> np :)
[12:39] <luca> ciao
[12:39] <Chicoinc> ehh dont you mean line 11?
[12:39] <legend2440> Chicoinc: you can delete line 13 since line 8 already mounts the swap file
[12:39] <soundray> PodMan99a: look at the cached packages in /var/cache/apt/archives -- are they mostly amd64.deb ?
[12:39] <lat_> Can the domain name for a LAN be different from the domain name for a web site hosted on the same computer?
[12:40] <joielmeubaix> hi everybody
[12:40] <grausam> hi
[12:40] <soundray> Chicoinc: also, you shouldn't mount /dev/sda1 again since according to lines 5 and 6 it contains your root filesystem
[12:41] <Chicoinc> soundrAY: have no clue. as i said totaly noob
[12:41] <slicky>  udptunnel -c TCP-addr[/TCP-port] [-r] [-v] UDP-addr/UDP-port[/ttl]    <-- can someone explain what this means?
[12:41] <soundray> Chicoinc: did you make those fstab changes?
[12:41] <Chicoinc> now i have deleated line 13
[12:42] <Chicoinc> i'm not that quick. sorry
[12:42] <Real_Boy_Love> http://psp1.vndv.com/vote.php?id=901 Love test for you. Please visit :) mr. Smith :)
[12:42] <lenix_> What would be the best Audio driver to use in Wine ? OSS or ALSA? Bit new to this stuff :)
[12:42] <soundray> bazhang: spam ^^ Real_Boy_Love
[12:42] <hscade> lenix_, Alsa
[12:42] <jameslr> slicky: looks like a utility to tunnel udp packets through a tcp socket
[12:43] <lenix_> hscade, thanks, any idea if i should enable driver emulation ? and what to set Hardware acceleration ?
[12:43] <slicky> jameslr, yes, thats what i want to do
[12:44] <Chicoinc> now nothings happens when i inset the usb key
[12:44] <massmc> wewt
[12:44] <massmc> sup ubuntuers
[12:44] <jameslr> slicky: ok, have you tried it?
[12:44] <joielmeubaix> \quit
[12:44] <slicky> jameslr, i dont understand the syntax..
[12:44] <soundray> Chicoinc: what do you expect to happen?
[12:44] <PodMan99a> soundray, bugger they are all i386
[12:45] <soundray> PodMan99a: you installed a 32bit system then...
[12:45] <Chicoinc> a popup window
[12:45] <soundray> Chicoinc: are you in gnome?
[12:46] <Chicoinc> either an error message or a quistion of what i would do now( download photos and so on)
[12:46] <Chicoinc> What? i'm using ubuntu and not kubuntu if thats is what you meen'
[12:46] <jameslr> slicky: this udptunnel acts as a client and server
[12:47] <soundray> Chicoinc: why did you change your fstab?
[12:47] <jameslr> slicky: meaning you need to initiate the tunnel on the server side as well
[12:47] <Chicoinc> i dident. i just stop working after an update
[12:47] <kim_> ?
[12:47] <Manacim> hi
[12:47] <soundray> Chicoinc: what kind of update?
[12:47] <slicky> jameslr, okey, iv got an ssh tunnel.. socks5 sending the tcp packages..   should i send the udb via the tcp ?
[12:48] <kim_> hi
[12:48] <jameslr> slicky: you must use the udptunnel on the client and the server
[12:48] <caldo_de_cana> hello
[12:48] <slicky> jameslr, okey
[12:48] <Chicoinc> the update from ubuntu. and a did put in a new dvd drive. but until now i did not even know i had an fstab
[12:48] <jameslr> slicky: client and server are both linux?
[12:48] <moDumass> hey all, um, i couldnt get stackswitch working and ran  compiz --replace in terminal, now , no decorations
[12:48] <caldo_de_cana> I've had ubuntu installed on a macbook for over a week, and today I woke up and dhclient was eating up 100% of cpu.
[12:48] <slicky> jameslr, yes
[12:49] <moDumass> someone in compiz-fusion is helping me
[12:49] <soundray> Chicoinc: which version of ubuntu do  you have?
[12:49] <caldo_de_cana> since I couldn't do much, I decided to reboot (the windows way out)
[12:49] <slicky> jameslr, server is debian 4.0  client is ubuntu 8.04
[12:49] <caldo_de_cana> and now I only get "GRUB " and nothing else (after rEFIt)
[12:49] <Chicoinc> hardy or 8,4
[12:49] <caldo_de_cana> I remember seeing somewhere about this "if you only see GRUB " problem, but can't remember where
[12:49] <caldo_de_cana> 8.4
[12:49] <jameslr> slicky then udptunnel -s tcpport clientaddr/ud-port on the server
[12:49] <OB1FoShoB> is there something easier than 'linux from scratch!' i could use to build a custom iso of ubuntu?  i want to include the software packages i've added myself and custom settings, but want the created iso to probe for new hardware on install...
[12:50] <joaopinto> OB1FoShoB, there is an ubuntu customization kit
[12:50] <bazhang> !uck | OB1FoShoB
[12:50] <soundray> Chicoinc: did you upgrade to hardy from gutsy?
[12:50] <jameslr> slicky: then udptunnel -c server/tcpport clientaddr/udp-port
[12:50] <Chicoinc> no new install and all that
[12:50] <joaopinto> OB1FoShoB, please that ubuntu probes for hardware on startup, not only during install time
[12:51] <slicky> jameslr, thanks
[12:51] <slicky> jameslr, ill try it
[12:51] <Chicoinc> BTW my new fstab after the changes you surgested
[12:51] <OB1FoShoB> thanks for the info guys :-)
[12:51] <soundray> Chicoinc: you don't arrive at an fstab like yours by doing a fresh installation
[12:52] <Chicoinc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24191/
[12:53] <jacobian> suggestions on laptops under 500eur?
[12:53] <soundray> Chicoinc: you've introduced a new mistake by replacing / with a space
[12:53] <soundray> jacobian: wrong channel
[12:53] <jacobian> (that work with ubuntu)
[12:53] <jacobian> I'm not interested in one that won't run ubuntu
[12:53] <bazhang> jacobian, join us in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:53] <jacobian> thanks
[12:54] <Chicoinc> i really have no idea. hvat i have done but my plan is to make a fresh install after i have backed up my data. and that is preaty hard without an usbkey
[12:55] <zimnyx> Do you know some tool that will be capable of displaying many 'tail -f' outputs in one splitted screen?
[12:55] <legend2440> Chicoinc: in line 11     /media Disk_2  should be /media/Disk_2 you forgot the   /
[12:55] <Chicoinc> ok have fiksed it. now it gives me the can only mount as root error as before
[12:56] <soundray> !fstab > Chicoinc
[12:56] <ercaimano> for the desktop cube where i must clik?
[12:57] <bazhang> !cube
[12:57] <Chicoinc> ok i'll read and be back. thanks
[12:58] <ercaimano> thanks
[12:58] <Tyreus> Is there a backup-programm like acronis true image, wich is able to do incremental / differential Partition backups?
[12:58] <caldo_de_cana> no luck for my "GRUB " problem?
[12:59] <legend2440> !backup | Tyreus
[13:00] <slicky> jameslr, hm, iv got a ssh socks5 tunnel from the client to the server..  on port 9999 ..  is that the same port i should type in the udptunnel program?
[13:02] <ClawEEE> hello guys
[13:02] <Bodsda> hey
[13:02] <Karny> hi all
[13:02] <Bodsda> hi
[13:02] <Stavroulis> hallo ;)
[13:03] <Bodsda> welcome
[13:03] <Karny> I'm trying to setup and headless server, but I'm running into some connectivity issues. can anyone suggest what might be the problem?
[13:03] <Tyreus> !backup is that a command or a prog?
[13:03] <jameslr> slicky: if you already have a tunnel set up then client and server will both be localhost/tcp
[13:03] <Karny> I seem to be able to access the default apache document "it's works", but not other things on the box, like phpmyadmin or webmin
[13:03] <Bodsda> Karny, server connectivity probs of internet probs in general?
[13:04] <slicky> jameslr, how do you mean?
[13:04] <Karny> Bodsda: not internet really... local clinets accessing things like mysql or webmin
[13:04] <Tyreus>   !backup is that a command or a prog?
[13:04] <Karny> even ftp seems weird
[13:04] <lenix_> this might sound a bit noobish, but I'm trying to paste some files to /usr/share/icons, but the Paste option is greyed out.. how can I do it ?
[13:04] <jameslr> slicky: udptunnel -c <IP_ADDRESS>/9999 <IP_ADDRESS>/udpport
[13:05] <legend2440> Tyreus: that is a factoid to give info on how to backups.   click on the links to read about how to backup
[13:05] <Bodsda> Karny, sorry, im not familliar with servers
[13:05] <Karny> lenix_: you probably don;t have write permissions on that folder
[13:05] <Tyreus> sbackup
[13:05] <Karny> ok, thanks Bodsda
[13:05] <lenix_> Karny, isn't there a way to make the user i use have permissions on all folders?
[13:05] <Bodsda> lenix_, command line would be easier or install nautilus-sudo   its because you do not have permission to modify that file/folder
[13:05] <Bodsda> lenix_, yes there is but its a bad idea
[13:06] <Bodsda> !sudo | lenix_
[13:06] <legend2440> Tyreus: sbackup is name of a software package you can install
[13:06] <lenix_> why would it be a bad idea if i'm the only one that use the computer?
[13:06] <Bodsda> !root
[13:06] <lenix_> Bodsda,  and ya i know about SU
[13:06] <Bodsda> lenix_, SU is different from sudo
[13:06] <lenix_> i already know my root pass
[13:06] <lenix_> hmm
[13:06] <legend2440> Tyreus: sbackup is in synaptic
[13:06] <Bodsda> lenix_, really, i doubt it
[13:06] <jameslr> lenix_: it's not necessarily a BAD idea. Just poor practice.
[13:07] <RCP> sudo su :P
[13:07] <jameslr> lenix_: you won't always have root access to a system you should learn how to use a system without it.
[13:07] <Tyreus> Thx
[13:07] <slicky> jameslr, and on the server?
[13:07] <evgeny> hi
[13:07] <lenix_> jameslr, so it's all about bad practice then :P but I got no problem with it, I can do it over terminal
[13:07] <jameslr> slicky: leave it the same. the tcp port doesn't require a host on the server part of udptunnel
[13:07] <lenix_> i guess..
[13:07] <Karny> so, can anyone help me with my issue?
[13:07] <slicky> jameslr, okey
[13:08] <Karny> I'm not sure why some things are working, whilst others are?
[13:08] <jameslr> lenix_: There are inherent security risks to running as the root user, but that's on you.
[13:08] <Bodsda> lenix_, you need privileges to achieve this copy, for that you use sudo
[13:08] <slicky> jameslr, i get this message: setup_server_listen: bind: Address already in use
[13:08] <JGJones> Greetings
[13:08] <jameslr> slicky: ahh yes that's because the tunnel is using the port.
[13:08] <JGJones> Have anyone installed the Ibex alpha 1 onto VMware?
[13:08] <jameslr> slicky: can't do the tunnel through a tunnel then
[13:08] <Bodsda> JGJones, no, but i have it on my system
[13:09] <slicky> jameslr, and i cant see the udp connection in nmap
[13:09] <lenix_> Bodsda, what is the sudo command to move stuff around?
[13:09] <Bodsda> lenix_, prefix your command with sudo -- sudo cp /path/to/something/something /path/to/where/you/want/a/acopy/something
[13:09] <JGJones> Bodsda - no spare machine...hence vmware however ibex does not work - get up to login, enter username/password and then it freeze.
[13:09] <evgeny> does anyone know if there is some open source stuff like AutoCAD?
[13:10] <Dr_willis> evgeny,  there are a few GPl Cad programs out.
[13:10] <jameslr> evgeny: blender might be what you're looking for
[13:10] <Bodsda> JGJones, hhmm, not sure there, any error? maybe consult #ubuntu+1
[13:10] <Dr_willis> evgeny,  not sure of your needs. but qcad is handy.
[13:10] <evgeny> tnx
[13:10] <Dr_willis> blender and autocad - are sort of  different. :) but i guess it depends on your  needs.
[13:10] <JGJones> Bodsda - thanks, have joined channel.
[13:11] <Bodsda> JGJones, cool
[13:11] <evgeny> my needs are the simpliest
[13:11] <lenix_> Bodsda, thanks, but I want to ask something, is there any difference between sudo cp and sudo mv ?
[13:11] <lenix_> or is it copy / move ?
[13:12] <KrimZon> how do you change the login prompt sound - the one that's played before you actually log in?
[13:12] <jameslr> lenix_: cp copies, move moves (read delete the source)
[13:12] <Bodsda> lenix_, yes, cp makes a copy and mv moves the original file
[13:12] <lenix_> alright cool, thanks a lot guys <3
[13:12] <lenix_> ubuntu ftw :P
[13:12] <Dr_willis> KrimZon,  i belive its set in the gdm config file.
[13:12] <jameslr> lenix_: welcome
[13:13] <masteredu> hello
[13:13] <masteredu> i am a new ubuntu user
[13:13] <relik77> hi
[13:13] <Bodsda> KrimZon, System --> Admin--> Login Window --> accesibility tab
[13:13] <relik77> anyone know anything about configuring startup programs?
[13:13] <masteredu> i have installed jesterday ubuntu
[13:13] <jimius> welcome masteredu
[13:13] <masteredu> and
[13:13] <Bodsda> Dr_willis, see my posts to KrimZon
[13:13] <Dr_willis> relik77,  depends on where/what you are starting up.
[13:13] <masteredu> i have a few questions
[13:13] <KrimZon> ah, thanks
[13:13] <masteredu> can anyone help me?
[13:13] <masteredu> i am a little noob :(
[13:13] <Bodsda> !ask | master_of_master
[13:13] <gordonjcp> !ask | masteredu
[13:14] <legend2440> KrimZon: open system>admin>login window then accessibility tab
[13:14] <relik77> well - i had some programs set to startup using the Sessions window.... however I later removed them from Sessions, but they still start when I login
[13:14] <masteredu> ok my question is how can i configure the screen resolution ? advanced
[13:14] <KrimZon> yep, found it
[13:14] <relik77> so is there another location i need to edut>
[13:14] <relik77> edit*?
[13:14] <masteredu> can one help me?
[13:15] <perlsyntax> i wish someone can help me
[13:15] <jameslr> masteredu: system>preferences>Display Resolution I think
[13:15] <DaveTarmac> does anyone in here know the latest on the Ubuntu/PulseAudio/Flash crash bug? are there any fixes out there that work for everyone yet?
[13:15]  * Bodsda spawns magic genie to help perlsyntax
[13:15] <perlsyntax> ?
[13:15] <masteredu> but i mean advanced
[13:15] <Pici> perlsyntax: Ask a question first.
[13:15] <Bodsda> Dave123, yeah, remove pulseaudio seems to work
[13:15] <masteredu> i think 1235xXXXX or something?
[13:16] <perlsyntax> i get this eorr when i try to install perl-support.zip
[13:16] <perlsyntax> Can't stat /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8: No such file or directory

[13:16] <perlsyntax> at /home/perlsyntax/.vim/perl-support/scripts/pmdesc3.pl line 243
[13:16] <Bodsda> DaveTarmac, removing pulseaudio seems to fix most sound probs
[13:16] <Dr_willis> relik77,  could be the session got autosaved so that restarting them.
[13:16] <jameslr> !pastebin | perlsyntax
[13:16] <Bodsda> !paste | perlsyntax
[13:16] <lenix_> masteredu, through nvidia-config if you're using an nvidia card/drivers
[13:16] <perlsyntax> sory i paste it before and didn't see it
[13:16] <Pici> perlsyntax: Are you just trying to enable syntax hilighting in vim?
[13:16] <DaveTarmac> Bodosa: really? isn't PulseAudio needed for most things in Hardy though?
[13:16] <perlsyntax> that my prob
[13:16] <masteredu> and my other question is when i install the nivdia driver i only can select 320x and 640x o.0
[13:17] <perlsyntax> i try to install perl-support for my gvim
[13:17] <relik77> i found a session session checkbox somewhere a while ago (perhaps through Ubuntu Tweak) and it was definitely unchecked
[13:17] <masteredu> i have a Geforce 8500 GT
[13:17] <relik77> save session***
[13:17] <Bodsda> DaveTarmac, no, if your remove pulseaudio, alsa gets set to default which works perfectly for most people
[13:17] <Pici> perlsyntax: Can you try installing the vim-full package first and see if that resolves your issue?
[13:17] <DaveTarmac> excellent - I'll get that done tonight then
[13:18] <perlsyntax> i don't think so.When i try to look up mu perl moules on perl-support i get that error.
[13:18] <DaveTarmac> It's a real pain not to have a stbale browser when trying to view flash
[13:18] <masteredu> can one help me?
[13:18] <masteredu> how can i make it higher then 640 ?
[13:18] <Bodsda> perlsyntax, this should give you your answers -- http://openbookproject.net//thinkCSpy/app_a.xhtml
[13:18] <Dr_willis> masteredu,  you did install the nvidia drivers for it?
[13:18] <Paijo> fallend
[13:18] <Pici> Bodsda: Thats python, not perl.
[13:19] <relik77> Dr_willis the problem is that even when I run the failsafe login it still starts up those programs
[13:19] <lenix_> I got a computer on my LAN that have 3 shares, I can't see them through network window, but I can access them if i write the command like smb://server/lenix/ , is there a command to list the shares on a specific pc on my lan ?
[13:19] <lenix_> it's a windows pc by the way
[13:19] <Bodsda> Pici, couldnt you just substitute all instances of 'python' for 'perl' ?
[13:19] <Armored_Azrael> How would one forward all connections through a remote server with just a user account on the remote server?
[13:19] <Kartagis> masteredu: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[13:19] <Dr_willis> masteredu,  occasionally on my ssytems i bneed to install/run the nvidia-settings tool and tweak the settings.
[13:20] <jameslr> lenix_: smbclient -L \\server\ -U username
[13:20] <masteredu> where i find the nvidea settings tool?
[13:20] <Pici> Bodsda: I suppose, I didnt really look too closely at the link before.
[13:20] <masteredu> in what orders?
[13:20] <masteredu> when i had installed
[13:20] <Bodsda> Pici, it works amazingly for python ;~)
[13:20] <perlsyntax> ?
[13:20] <Pici> Bodsda: I dont use vim, so ;)
[13:21] <Bodsda> Pici, your not an evil emacs man are you?
[13:21] <lenix_> jameslr,  thanks :D worked like a charm, how can I make it so it automount the shares I want ? ( My system already automounts all my local drives )
[13:21] <Dr_willis> masteredu,  its in the packagfe manager called 'nvidiasettings' I belive. theres 2 such tools.  install them both
[13:21] <perlsyntax> bodsda, i want to install perl-suipport
[13:21] <masteredu> ok
[13:21] <masteredu> bye
[13:21] <jameslr> lenix_: add them to your /etc/fstab
[13:21] <masteredu> i come back soon
[13:21] <masteredu> thanks for helüp
[13:21] <Bodsda> perlsyntax, and the problem is.... is there a package in the repo's?
[13:21] <masteredu> *help*
[13:22] <perlsyntax> what you meajn package
[13:22] <perlsyntax> i show you the eroor i am getting.
[13:22] <Bodsda> perlsyntax, plz do
[13:22] <X-tremAl_Raven> got "No ACPI support in kernel, or incorrect acpi_path ("/proc/acpi")."
[13:22] <Pici> perlsyntax: please use a pastebin
[13:22] <Bodsda> perlsyntax, pastebin
[13:23] <perlsyntax> i show you the error befor.e
[13:23] <X-tremAl_Raven> Waht to do?
[13:23] <X-tremAl_Raven> *What
[13:23] <Bodsda> perlsyntax, please pastebin the error, and provide me with the link
[13:23] <jameslr> X-tremAl_Raven: what gives you that error?
 acpi
[13:24] <Bodsda> X-tremAl_Raven, is noacpi in our boot line?
[13:24] <soundray> Bodsda: there is no noacpi option to Ubuntu kernels
[13:24] <Bodsda> soundray, acpi-off?
[13:24] <jameslr> yeah, do a grep 'noacpi' /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:24] <K-4U> how to start programs from another PC via SSH on my own?
[13:24] <soundray> Bodsda: acpi=off
[13:24] <gordonjcp> K-4U: ssh in, type the command
[13:24] <Bodsda> soundray, i always get acpi and apci mixed up
[13:25] <gordonjcp> K-4U: or, ssh <host> "command"
[13:25] <jameslr> ahh didn't know that. thought noacpi was a standard flag
[13:25] <soundray> Bodsda: apci doesn't even exist ;)
[13:25] <K-4U> gordonjcp: And, i will see it then on my OWN pc? not the other?
[13:25] <soundray> Bodsda: apic does
[13:25] <Bodsda> soundray, i swear theres something extremely similar to acpi -- ah apic, ty
[13:25] <Dr_willis> I though there was some renaming of apic and apci to reduce confusion.. :)
[13:25] <soundray> X-tremAl_Raven: does 'dmesg | head' give you any clues?
[13:25] <Bodsda> jameslr, can you grep a file without cat'ing it?
[13:26] <gordonjcp> K-4U: well, you typed the command on your own PC, that's where the output will be
[13:26] <K-4U> okay :P
[13:26] <jameslr> Bodsda: yeah
[13:26] <K-4U> thought you had to use -X or something like that
[13:26] <Bodsda> jameslr, whats the command?
[13:26] <gordonjcp> K-4U: for GUI programs you would
[13:26] <jameslr> grep 'alsdkfjalskdfj' filename
[13:27] <Bodsda> jameslr, oh, ur right, cheers dude
[13:27] <lenix_> jameslr, should i specify the <type> and <options> columns inside the fstab or can i leave them blank ? not sure what to put in there ( also the <dump> )
 Forgot where to look. Can you remind me?
 Thanx.
[13:27] <jameslr> lenix_: you must specify type
[13:27] <Bodsda> X-tremAl_Raven, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:27] <clusby> does anyone know if there are digikam 0.1 pakages around?
[13:28] <jameslr> lenix_: options are necessary because you need to give the username you want to use to mount it.
[13:28] <Bodsda> lenix_, search ubuntu com docs for 'fstab'
[13:28] <lenix_> alright
[13:28] <lenix_> i'll see and will report if it goes fine
[13:28] <lenix_> thanks
[13:28] <Bodsda> !find digikam
[13:28] <jameslr> lenix_: k gl
[13:28] <Bodsda> !info digikam
[13:28] <clusby> yeh thanks - i was looking for the latest 0.1, not 0.9.3
[13:29] <Bodsda> clusby, yes, install with   sudo apt-get install digikam
[13:29] <Bodsda> clusby, oh, then you would need to compile from source
[13:29] <clusby> ok thanks
[13:30] <soundray> clusby: the beta is 0.10 (not 0.1)
[13:30] <ge> Hey People! I try to enable bluetooth on my notebook. Any idea how?
[13:30] <ge> When I do `hcitool scan` it says "Device is not available: No such device"
[13:30] <nonix4> Umm, against which package should I file a bug about "The list of changes is not available yet. Please try again later." having the later refer to an unspecified number of years on average?
[13:30] <ge> On the Ubuntu wiki, it says "start bluetooth-applet" but what does this do? nothing happens.
[13:31] <soundray> ge: you need bluetooth hardware
[13:31] <Bodsda> ge, if it 'does nothing' it has probably started the bluetooth applet
[13:31] <_Brun0_> hi all. why do i keep getting this on terminal every 3 secs or so: http://pastebin.com/m15c24a09
[13:32] <danbhfive> nonix4: is this an update from proposed?
[13:32] <ge> soundray: i have bluetooth hardware
[13:32] <ge> Bodsda: so now what?
[13:32] <soundray> ge: what kind? How connected?
[13:32] <gordonjcp> _Brun0_: looks like either the cd in the drive or the drive is knackered
[13:32] <ge> How do I check, if I have bluetooth?
[13:32] <ge> soundray: its part of the notebook
[13:32] <nonix4> danbhfive: whatever is enabled by default... most of the time the pkg is something in gcc toolchain
[13:33] <molgrum> there are no nvidia drivers for 8.10?
[13:33] <soundray> ge: what notebook model?
[13:33] <Comet_Rider> i got a simple question...i am downloading a ubuntu live cd. All I have are blank DVD's. Will DVD's work in place of a baln CD?
[13:33] <ge> soundray: samsung x20
[13:33] <Bodsda> molgrum, there probably not yet in the kernel
[13:33] <Comet_Rider> umm a ubunut .iso file i meant
[13:33] <soundray> !intrepid | molgrum
[13:34] <Bodsda> Comet_Rider, i think possibly yes it would work, although ive heard of issues, why not download the dvd iso?
[13:34] <nonix4> danbhfive: only hardy-securit and hardy-updates enabled
[13:34] <danbhfive> nonix4: yeah, i dont know, sorry
[13:34] <Comet_Rider> umm a ubunut .iso file i meanti couldnt find it, if i had of seen a DVD .iso i would have
[13:34] <Bodsda> Comet_Rider, you after 8.04 Hardy yeah?
[13:35] <soundray> ge: does your bluetooth hardware show up when you enter 'lsusb'?
[13:35] <Bodsda> Comet_Rider, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/release/
[13:35] <Comet_Rider> yea i'm downloading the desktop version for 8.04 now
[13:35] <lordrommel> hello
[13:35] <Bodsda> soundray, may be lspci if its built in his lappy
[13:35] <_Brun0_> gordonjcp, yea my laptop drive is not owrking. how can i disable it?
[13:35] <Bodsda> Comet_Rider, youll find a desktop dvd iso on that link
[13:35] <Comet_Rider> ty
[13:36] <Bodsda> Comet_Rider, your welcome
[13:36] <m1r> hello
[13:36] <soundray> Bodsda: I know, but we'll take it one step at a time, considering that lspci output takes much longer to parse
[13:36] <lenix_> should this work fine in fstab /server/lenix (e) /media/LENiX ntfs username=lenix,password=****** 0 0
[13:36] <lenix_> ?
[13:36] <Bodsda> soundray, instantaneous on my system, or do you mean wading through the data?
[13:37] <gordonjcp> _Brun0_: disable in the BIOS?
[13:37] <jameslr> lenix_: not unless the drive is directly attached
[13:37] <Comet_Rider> if only my AT&T aircard supported *nix i could dump vista
[13:37] <ge> soundray: i dont think so. it shows a bunch of iles like these:
[13:37] <ge> Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
[13:37] <lenix_> i already created /media/LENiX to be my mount point
[13:37] <_Brun0_> gordonjcp, yea! iĺl definatelly try that. thank you!
[13:37] <ge> so maybe i should get an usb-bluetooth-stick?
[13:37] <Bodsda> soundray, i think you may need pastebinit on this one ;~)
[13:37] <Frogzoo> lenix_: what's (e)? and I don't see a device
[13:38] <jameslr> lenix_: it should look something like: //server/lenix /media/LENiX smbfs username-lenix,password=***** 0 0
[13:38] <lenix_> the sharename is "lenix (e)"
[13:38] <soundray> ge: either that, or your integrated bluetooth hardware may be connected to the PCI bus, in which case it will show up in the output of lspci
[13:38] <soundray> !pastebin | ge, pastebin lsusb and lspci output if you want me to have a look
[13:39] <lenix_> jameslr, what if the sharename has a space in it, its called lenix (e)
[13:39] <jameslr> lenix_: I'd create file called /etc/samba/creds and chmod it 700. Put your username and password in that file and specify credentials=/etc/samba/creds as well as your other options
[13:39] <lenix_> quotations works?
[13:39] <Comet_Rider> any idea what i have in my mirc config that would make freenode block me from connecting here?
[13:39] <jameslr> lenix_: you have to escape the space, but I'd just remove the space out of the share name.
[13:40] <`Ampher> Comet_Rider: just use Pidgin :)
[13:40] <jameslr> lenix_: what's the point of beatifying a share name anyway?
[13:40] <Bodsda> Comet_Rider, how can it be blocking you from connecting if we can see your posts?
[13:40] <ge> soundray, ubottu: `lspci | grep blue` does not show anything. So I guess this notebook has no bluetooth. I will get an usb-bluetooth-thingy then.
[13:40] <Bodsda> `Ampher, thats not really a solution
[13:40] <Comet_Rider> i am using mibbit now, a web proxy basically
[13:40] <soundray> ge: grep is case sensitive. Retry with grep -i
[13:40] <lenix_> it's not my pc, it's my room mates pc :P and he had the share names setup like that, maybe i'll ask him to remove the space -,-
[13:40] <`Ampher> Bodsda: Maybe, but it is much better then mirc, right? ;)
[13:40] <Comet_Rider> nope not even close
[13:40] <jameslr> lenix_: try it by escaping the space and putting a \ before it
[13:40] <Bodsda> `Ampher, its relative to the user
[13:41] <ge> soundray: nothing either.
[13:41] <soundray> lenix_: man fstab has a hint on how to put spaces in share names
[13:41] <offline_> hi anyone please tell me the differences between ubuntu and kubuntu ?
[13:41] <`Ampher> I'll tell you something, I don't even use the linux right now... so ;P And yeah, about his question.. whats better, Kubuntu or Ubuntu?
[13:41] <Bodsda> ge, try looking with your eyes, see anything related? how do you know you have an internel bluetooth device?
[13:41] <lenix_> jameslr, will do.. although what about the smbfs type , should i put it smbfs or just ntfs ? ( the share type is ntfs ) :P
[13:42] <IdleOne> ubuntu use gnome and kubuntu use KDE
[13:42] <soundray> ge: the X20 comes in lots of versions. It's possible that yours doesn't have Bluetooth and you need a dongle.
[13:42] <`Ampher> Yeah, I know that
[13:42] <`Ampher> but, whats better
[13:42] <`Ampher> Faster, easier
[13:42] <ge> Bodsda, soundray: googling for the X20 shows, that there are many versions. I have "NP-X20 I". Maybe this one has no bluetooth. There are sites saying that the SE-Series has bluetooth.
[13:42] <Bodsda> `Ampher, neither, they are both relative to the users needs/wants you cant say ones better then the other
[13:42] <jameslr> lenix_: ntfs is for direct attached storage. If you're accessing the filesystem directly through your drive controllers
[13:42] <SHYMAN> hi folks
[13:42] <`Ampher> k.
[13:42] <jameslr> lenix_: you want to use smbfs because you're mounting the drive as a samba share
[13:42] <soundray> ge: I bought a nice one the other day, just fingernail-size and round
[13:42] <lenix_> jameslr, got you, thanks!
[13:42] <`Ampher> What are you using ? KDE or GNOME
[13:43] <Bodsda> `Ampher, not the place -- #ubuntu-offtopic please
[13:43] <SHYMAN> hi ozkelli
[13:43] <ge> soundray, Bodsda: thank you very much for your help. will switch to another computer now and have to turn off irc.
[13:43] <offline_> yeah.. which one is easier, faster, and better support and driver availability and compability
[13:43] <Bodsda> ge, ok, cya
[13:43] <Bodsda> offline_, which one what?
[13:43] <IdleOne> offline_, both neither depends what you prefer and need
[13:44] <offline_> bodsda: i mean between ubuntu and kubuntu
[13:44] <Bodsda> offline_, oh, sorry missed your question, try them both see which one YOU prefer, no onecan tell you which is better
[13:44] <Comet_Rider> wow going from a cd iso to a dvd iso changed my download from 600 mb to  3.7 GB... thats too much for my wireless isp connection :(
[13:44] <offline_> idleone & bodsda : thx.. i'm using ubuntu and will try kubuntu :)
[13:45] <Bodsda> Comet_Rider, ah, yes its a bigger file but there is a load more apps on the dvd
[13:45] <Bodsda> offline_, try KDE, you dont need to download and install a kubuntu iso
[13:45] <Comet_Rider> hopefully i dont lose my aircard signal lol
[13:45] <Bodsda> Comet_Rider, yeah ;~)
[13:47] <offline_> bodsda: im totally new with linux, so i dont know what is gnome and kde is, i tought if i want to try kubuntu so i have to download the iso... but download the kde ???
[13:47] <kaliMastah> ello anyone here uses gnokii?
[13:47] <Bodsda> offline_, ok, you have buntu. Ubuntu is buntu with gnome, Kubuntu is buntu with KDE, think of it that way
[13:47] <Comet_Rider> since AT&T doesn't supply drivers for my Operon GT Max aircard, how i connect to the internet, what are the odds someone else has made drivers or whatever they are called in ubuntu to work for my aircard?
[13:48] <Comet_Rider> Option*
[13:48] <tristanaa> test
[13:48] <IdleOne> !gnome
[13:48] <offline_> bodsda: ok i'll try to think that way as you tell me.. im googling now to find kde and gnome description. Thx
[13:48] <Bodsda> tristanaa, test succeeded
[13:49] <tristanaa> fine :)
[13:49] <Bodsda> offline_, have fun
[13:49] <ozkelligirl> hi all
[13:49] <offline_> ok :D
[13:49] <lenix_> jameslr, can I test the new fstab with logging out/logging in ?
[13:50] <BellA> hi
[13:50] <BellA> i dunno why i here
[13:50] <Comet_Rider> lol
[13:51] <lenix_> brb
[13:51] <jameslr> lenix_: just do mount -a
[13:51] <dfgas> lenix_, if any changes were made to fstab the easiest way to have them take effect is to reboot
[13:51] <dfgas> or nm, heh
[13:51] <jameslr> lenix_: sorry sudo mount -a
[13:51] <Bodsda> rebooting takes 20 seconds,
[13:51] <Bodsda> max
[13:51] <woozzy> can anyone help me??
[13:51] <Bodsda> !ask | woozzy
[13:52] <BellA> im bored...
[13:52] <woozzy> i'm looking for a ghost boot floppy that has multi network card abilty
[13:52] <Chicoinc> to any one in here who helped me. 1000 thanks. after i read the link you send me i figured it out my self. thanks
[13:52] <jameslr> woozzy: so you come to #ubuntu?
[13:52] <woozzy> not sure were to go sorryt
[13:53] <woozzy> if anyone can point in right driection i would be very greatful
[13:53] <jameslr> woozzy: have you tried googling ghost boot floppy multiple NIC?
[13:53] <woozzy> yep nothing
[13:53] <ThreeFingerPete_> ubuntu 8.04 - I changed my xorg.conf to add proper resolutions in. I restart X and they just dont appear! google is no help so far! what am I doing wrong?
[13:53] <lenix_> it's not working, [mntent]: line 8 in /etc/fstab is bad
[13:54] <aschwalje> i finally took the plunge, installed dual boot with existing xp on my hp dv6226 laptop. Need help with the hibernate and suspend. Neither work.
[13:54] <jameslr> That's odd I get 5000 results
[13:54] <lenix_> this is line 8
[13:54] <lenix_>  /server/lenix\ (e) /media/LENiX smbfs username=lenix,password=**** 0 0
[13:54] <woozzy> yah but nothing that relates to floppy just mostly cds
[13:55] <jameslr> lenix_: you need to escape the parentheses too with \. So it will look like //server/lenix\ \(e\)
[13:55] <jameslr> lenix_: ask him to remove the space and parentheses.
[13:55] <Bodsda> jameslr, ugly!! ;~)
[13:55] <jameslr> lenix_: you also need two slashes before teh server
[13:55] <jameslr> the*
[13:56] <aschwalje> any help would be greatly appreciated
[13:56] <aschwalje> i am on 8.04
[13:56] <jameslr> woozzy: why not build CDs?
[13:56] <woozzy> cos pc i'm using cant have cd
[13:56] <lenix_> /server/lenix\ \(e\) /media/LENiX
[13:57] <lenix_> still getting same error, line 8 is bad
[13:57] <lenix_> 2 slashes before server is there
[13:57] <jameslr> lenix_: //server!!! two slashes!!
[13:57] <lenix_> xchat ate one slash
[13:57] <lenix_> lol
[13:57] <lenix_>  //server/lenix\ \(e\) /media/LENiX
[13:57] <jameslr> lenix_: so there are two slashes there in the config??
[13:58] <lenix_> yes
[13:58] <lenix_> here is the whole line
[13:58] <lenix_>  //server/lenix\ \(e\) /media/LENiX smbfs username=lenix,password=xxx 0 0
[13:58] <jameslr> lenix_: are you an adiministrator on the share?
[13:58] <lenix_> i have read writes only
[13:58] <lenix_> rights*
[13:58] <lenix_> ;/
[13:58] <jameslr> lenix_: I would use the creds file like I mentioned. not secure to put a password in a world readable file
[13:59] <lenix_> I can do that after I get this to work, or using a creds file will make it work?
[13:59] <jameslr> lenix_: possibly. I've never passed username and password as options in fstab
[13:59] <jameslr> lenix_: use credentials=/etc/samba/creds
[13:59] <jameslr> lenix_: touch /etc/samba/creds
[13:59] <jameslr> lenix_: chmod 0700 /etc/samba/creds
[14:00] <jameslr> lenix_: then put a username username and password password
[14:00] <jameslr> in the file
[14:00] <jameslr> username and password are on separate lines
[14:02] <aschwalje> okay, i know my problem is a common one
[14:03] <aschwalje> but i don't know whether to use uswsusp or what
[14:03] <Slart> aschwalje: the problem is common.. the solution isn't
[14:03] <lenix_> jameslr, username=user password=pass , seperate lines each
[14:03] <lenix_> like that?
[14:03] <lenix_> in the /etc/samba/creds
[14:04] <aschwalje> Slart, any suggestions?
[14:04] <Slart> aschwalje: I don't even know if hibernate works on my laptop... just haven't bothered with it
[14:04] <jameslr> lenix_: no = just username username
[14:04] <jameslr> lenix_: yes separate lines
[14:04] <Slart> aschwalje: nope.. just the usual, check the forums, google etc
[14:04] <ne2k__> does Moose have exceptions? try, catch, throw?
[14:05] <Slart> ne2k__: moose?
[14:05] <ne2k__> Slart: sorry, wrong channel!
[14:05] <Pici> ne2k__: I'm not sure I could catch or throw a moose...
[14:05] <moldor> Anyone know if I can use the Realtek NIC drivers from 6.06 with 8.04 ?
[14:05] <broonsparrow> hi can anyone recommend a USB wireless thingy that works well with Ubuntu?
[14:05] <Slart> ne2k__: thought so =)
[14:06] <aschwalje> Slart: thanks, i'll try stuff
[14:06] <lenix_>  //server/lenix\ \(e\) /media/LENiX smbfs credentials=/etc/samba/creds 0 0
[14:06] <lenix_> still same error on sudo mount -a
[14:06] <moldor> clusby: Good to see another Exetel user here
[14:06] <jameslr> lenix_: i'm thinking it has something to do with the funky share name.
[14:06] <jameslr> lenix_: ask the dillweed to change it :P
[14:06] <lenix_> heh :P you know what
[14:07] <lenix_> I think there are other shares without a space
[14:07] <lenix_> i'll try to mount them now
[14:07] <jameslr> lenix_: try those
[14:07] <Dr_willis> spaces in share names = lots of headaches. :)
[14:07] <Guest38348> looking for help with dvd drive problem, sata drive, when I insert any disc it attempts to mount the drive but reboots my machine
[14:07] <jameslr> lenix_: your mount point gives me headaches too
[14:07] <jameslr> lenix_: but that's just personal preference
[14:08] <kaliMastah> does ubuntu support sata drives?
[14:08] <jameslr> lenix_: are you in some sort of hacking group or something?
[14:08] <Dr_willis> kaliMastah,  supports them fine here.
[14:08] <jameslr> kaliMastah: yes
[14:08] <moldor> kaliMastah: Working fine on my server here - 2 x 750's...
[14:08] <Slart> Guest38348: sounds weird.. linux machines usually doesn't just reboot like that.. any error messages? logs?
[14:08] <Dr_willis> there may be a few sata controller cards with issues.
[14:08] <clusby> moldor: haha - yeh the speed could still be better :-P
[14:08] <msshams> i can connect with dhcp and wired lan to our network. but with wlan can't. ubuntu detects wlan intel card. and wicd can see network and connect to it and say connected, but after this, my machine don't connect still. can you help me?
[14:09] <TheDarkAura> sudo /say hi
[14:09] <Guest38348> i'm new to ubuntu, where are the logs?
[14:09] <moldor> clusby: what speed are you on ?
[14:09] <Pici> Guest38348: /var/logs
[14:09] <kaliMastah> oh thanks
[14:09] <jameslr> Guest38348: /var/log
[14:09] <Guest38348> k
[14:09] <lenix_> jameslr,  hacking ? no
[14:09] <lenix_> :P
[14:09] <Slart> Guest38348: in /var/log .. there is one called syslog and one called kern something
[14:09] <kaliMastah> can i have a php and mysql installed with my ubuntu?
[14:09] <kaliMastah> like lamp
[14:09] <jameslr> kaliMastah: yes
[14:10] <Jeeencha> Hello
[14:10] <kaliMastah> jameslr: did you ever try it?
[14:10] <Jeeencha> Where can i post logs here?
[14:10] <jameslr> kaliMastah: a few times
[14:10] <Jeeencha> not copy paste? :P
[14:10] <ne2k__> kaliMastah: LAMP is one of the tasks that tasksel asks you for when you install
[14:10] <Jeeencha> nvm
[14:10] <Jeeencha>  http://paste.ubuntu.com
[14:10] <kaliMastah> jameslr: uhuh ill try php and mysql here with my ubuntu
[14:11] <Guest38348> i'm looking through syslog
[14:11] <jameslr> kaliMastah: great :)
[14:11] <Guest38348> but i just rebooted so there is a lot
[14:11] <kaliMastah> jameslr: what do i need to apt-get for my ubuntu to have php and mysql?
[14:11] <jameslr> kaliMastah: sudo apt-get install php mysql
[14:11] <jameslr> kaliMastah: sudo apt-get mysql-server
[14:12] <kaliMastah> jameslr: thanks a lot
[14:12] <jameslr> kaliMastah: sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[14:12] <jameslr> damn I need to slow down
[14:12] <jameslr> getting sloppy
[14:12] <Jeeencha> So, i have problems reading DVD movies with my drive. I gave it away and asked for new one, thought it would help. But that does'nt. Then, when putting in a CD, i got this weird stuff on my dmesg.
[14:12] <Jeeencha> How would you translate that? http://paste.ubuntu.com/24203/
[14:12] <Jeeencha> Thanks for support.!
[14:12] <kaliMastah> Package php is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[14:13] <Pici> kaliMastah: Are you trying to install a LAMP environment?
[14:13] <kaliMastah> Pici, anything that could give me php and mysql
[14:14] <slayton>  /join #gnupg
[14:14] <Pici> kaliMastah: the package name is php5 not php
[14:14] <kaliMastah> Pici, sudo apt-get install php5?
[14:14] <lenix_> jameslr, guess what, a new error with another share ( without spaces )
[14:14] <lenix_> mount error 13 = Permission denied
[14:14] <lenix_> Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
[14:14] <Pici> kaliMastah: exactly
[14:14] <kaliMastah> whats the newest php right now?
[14:14] <jameslr> lenix_: well that's easy. You don't have permission :P
[14:14] <lenix_> although I'm sure the pass in creds is right ;/
[14:14] <superman> hello can somebody help me i got the error "cmos checksum error - Defaults loaded" If i want to start my pc
[14:15] <Pici> kaliMastah: 5 is the latest stable iirc.
[14:15] <kaliMastah> do i have to install the mysql-server?
[14:15] <Pici> kaliMastah: Only if you want mysql as well.
[14:15] <jameslr> lenix_: just because you can see the share doesn't mean you can access it
[14:15] <kaliMastah> oh ok
[14:15] <Pici> superman: Thats more of a hardware issue, your best bet is to ask in ##hardware
[14:15] <kaliMastah> thanks guys
[14:15] <erUSUL> superman: somehow the contents of your cmos memory (bios) got corrupted or so your bios thinks. Hardware issue not ubuntu specific
[14:16] <lenix_> i can access it through smb://server/share/
[14:16] <lenix_> it prompts me with the user/pass window
[14:16] <kaliMastah> this would be great...ubuntu rocks
[14:16] <lenix_> i put my user pass, and i get access
[14:16] <TGD> Hi
[14:17] <TGD> Anyone need help with wireless and ubuntu im your man (i made a bt voyager 1055 work)
[14:18] <icha> J
[14:18] <OB1FoShoB> TGD: how bout wireless on SLAX (WHAX) :)
[14:18] <Bodsda> TGD, il buy you a beer if you can fix my bug
[14:18] <TGD> I dont drink (13)
[14:18] <TGD> But ill help
[14:19] <TGD> Bodsda whats your problem?
[14:19] <Bodsda> TGD, wifi works fine, but everytime i use the internet my cpu spikes to 90-100 %
[14:19] <TGD> What pc are you using
[14:20] <Bodsda> TGD, firefox, apt, wget   anything which involves using wifi my system lags -- desktop hardy 32bit amd 1800 1.5gig ram
[14:20] <Bodsda> TGD, wifi device = Belkin F5d7050 usb dongle rt73 chipset
[14:20] <TGD> Is it only with wireless?
[14:21] <Bodsda> TGD, yes, ethernet works fine but is not practical to drape a wire all the way around the house
[14:21] <sharperguy> should my ~/.pulse/default.pa file be blank?
[14:21] <TGD> Bodsda: I suspect your drivers or wireless card are messed up
[14:22] <Bodsda> TGD, ive used the native drivers and tried the windows drivers via ndiswrapper to no avail
[14:22] <lenix_> just a question, when i do sudo mount -a , it asks me for a password, is that the pass for my ubuntu user or the shares ?
[14:22] <Bodsda> user
[14:22] <lenix_> i think it worked by putting the password for the shares
[14:22] <TGD> Wireless card then
[14:22] <Bodsda> TGD, classic but 'works fine on windows'
[14:22] <TGD> Windows has CPU control for wireless ubuntu cant
[14:23] <Bodsda> TGD, ubuntu can control cpu i believe
[14:23] <TGD> But before you shell out money try re-installing ubuntu (ubuntu can control CPU but not like windows)
[14:23] <Bodsda> TGD, ive reinstalled hardy plenty of times same prob even exists on live cd
[14:24] <TGD> Wireless card then
[14:24] <Bodsda> TGD, are you saying ubuntu 'cant' fix this?
[14:24] <TGD> Im saying either stick with windows (i wouldnt) or try a new wireless card
[14:24] <OB1FoShoB> sharperguy: are u actually using pulse or ALSA?
[14:24] <sharperguy> pulse
[14:24] <Bodsda> TGD, neither are acceptable im afraid, cant afford new card and cant live with windows
[14:25] <sharperguy> was following a tutorial and it said navigate to a certain line, but the file was blank
[14:25] <Bodsda> sharperguy, pulseaudio problems are resolved by removing pulseaudio (unless you have a need for all the fancy features)
[14:25] <TGD> Hmm
[14:25] <TGD> Maby just maby (doubt it though) Its your box
[14:25] <lenix_> jameslr, sorry for the headache :P it works now, gonna reboot in a while to see if its fine 100% .. and about the spaces, gonna remove them asap :@
[14:26] <Bodsda> TGD, no, my dads machine, same device different box has the same bug
[14:26] <sharperguy> Bodsda, only if i can upgrade to intrepid when it comes out and still have it work
[14:26] <sharperguy> and i know thats ages
[14:26] <Bodsda> !pm | caeam
[14:26] <shingalate1> any reason an ftp user would be able to log in with /bin/bash as their shell but not /bin/false ?
[14:26] <TGD> Im sorry but your wireless card is fried
[14:26] <visik7> shingalate1: use /bin/true ?
[14:26] <TGD> Well not 100% fried
[14:26] <Bodsda> sharperguy, still have what work?
[14:26] <TGD> But ubuntu Fried
[14:27] <Bodsda> TGD, k, cheers
[14:27] <drcrimz> where do I find a guide how to make a customized ubuntu cd? all the guides i've found are outdated and does not work for hardy heron
[14:27] <OB1FoShoB> sharperguy: the only files i had to edit (when i was using pulse) were asound.conf & liabo.conf
[14:27] <TGD> Bosda is your card under garantie
[14:27] <Bodsda> TGD, i doubt it, 3 years old
[14:27] <bazhang> !uck | drcrimz
[14:27] <sharperguy> Bodsda, well the upgrade and have pulseaudio be configured and stuff because i here they're fixing it in intrepid
[14:28] <drcrimz> thanks bazhang !
[14:28] <Maarekstele> anyone know when the netbook version of ubuntu is coming out for download?
[14:28] <bazhang> np
[14:28] <Bodsda> sharperguy, yeah, maybe -- im still not gonna live with it, unnecessary useless (to me) features
[14:28] <OB1FoShoB> sharperguy: it was good at letting me have multiple audio channels open at once, but would crash for no reason, and wine refused to work with it, so i went back to ALSA
[14:28] <TGD> What arcitechter are you using?
[14:28] <sharperguy> wine actually always worked fine for me
[14:28] <sharperguy> with pulse
[14:28] <Bodsda> TGD, me?
[14:28] <TGD> Yep
[14:29] <Bodsda> sharperguy, it shouldnt, it has 0 support
[14:29] <OB1FoShoB> sharperguy: then u were a lucky one :)
[14:29] <Bodsda> TGD, ive tried 32bit and 64bit (64bit chip)
[14:29] <TGD> Are you using partition?
[14:29] <OB1FoShoB> sharperguy: nothing i ran under wine would give me sound (when i had pulse)
[14:29] <Bodsda> TGD, partition?
[14:29] <sharperguy> i think it might be dominating the sound card whenever i use it though
[14:30] <OB1FoShoB> sharperguy: the main reason i switched was for skype, using x64, but it would still mess up, just let me get a little further than i could with ALSA
[14:30] <Bodsda> sharperguy, i think its actually using alsa, pulseaudio cannot work with wine iirc
[14:30] <TGD> Bodsda well does it look like 2 drives are in your pc instead of the real amount 1
[14:30] <Bodsda> TGD, i have 3 hard drives and over 10 partitions
[14:30] <Bodsda> im quad booting
[14:30] <sharperguy> well you can set it to oss and padsp everything, but thats not what i was doing
[14:30] <Pici> TGD: What does that have to do with wireless?
[14:30] <slayton> can you share a /home partition between a 64bit and 32bit version of ubuntu
[14:31] <TGD> Might be that you have to many OS`s and its causing ubuntu to stall
[14:31] <OB1FoShoB> sharperguy: if u run multiple audio apps like me, u may want to consider an old windoze box on the side (i know, cringe)
[14:31] <Bodsda> TGD, nope, lagged when i was single booting ubuntu
[14:31] <macrobad> Bodsa: So, what is your CPU doing: low-priority tasks, kernel, running some particular processes?
[14:31] <TGD> Wireless card then
[14:31] <TGD> Internet
[14:31] <WalloO> slayton, I think yes. But it'S a guess
[14:32] <Bodsda> macrobad, whatever app is using the wifi is spiking 90%-100% cpu
[14:32] <wiramaswara> hi, all
[14:32] <wiramaswara> is there any indonesian here?
[14:32] <Bodsda> TGD i no what the problem is im after a solution
[14:32] <Pici> !id | wiramaswara
[14:32] <TGD> Im saying its the wireless card but i dunno
[14:32] <Pici> TGD: If you dont know, just say you don't know.
[14:33] <TGD> Its most likley to be that
[14:33] <macrobad> Bodsa: Let me rephrase the question: what kind of tasks is your CPU busy with? Htop can actually help you to determine this.
[14:33] <Bodsda> macrobad, dunno, lemme lag myself, 1 sec
[14:35] <tux> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix : my heron has exim4 installed by default, is that page incorrect?
[14:35] <Guest38348> when i insert any cd into my sata drive, it reboots my machine instantly .. any clue?
[14:36] <Bodsda> macrobad, firefox and xorg cause cpu spikes
[14:36] <lenix_> so i added this network share to be mounted on boot in fstab, when i do sudo mount -a , it asks me for a pass, i put it, then share gets mounted.. but I tried to reboot, the share didn't auto-mount .. any idea ?
[14:36] <Bodsda> macrobad, im not exactly sure what you want?
[14:36] <t56com> anyone here using macbook with japanese keyboard layout? My problem is: ubuntu didnt detect it correctly, so few keystrokes is disabled, anyway the lay out is so wrong. I tried few layout, even patching it the debian way, but still no luck...
[14:36] <Bodsda> !jp
[14:37] <Bodsda> !japanese
[14:37] <jameslr> lenix_: check your /var/log/messages for errors
[14:37] <Pici> Bodsda: Then its not the wireless that is causing your cpu to spike, its those applications, which you only use when you're using your wireless.
[14:37] <t56com> my japanese is bad :)
[14:37] <m-c> Guest38348: How do you insert a cd into a sata drive ?   I thought a sata drive was a hard drive?  Do they make sata CDroms now?
[14:38] <shingalate1> visik7: No, /bin/true didn't work either
[14:38] <jameslr> There are sata optical drives now
[14:38] <connyosis> m-c: yes
[14:38] <Guest38348> they've made sata drivers for ever
[14:38] <Guest38348> well not forever but
[14:38] <Pici> tux: I'm not sure, Do you mind asking your question in #ubuntu-server ?
[14:38] <TGD> What firefox version do you have
[14:38] <Guest38348> and yes one error for the drive problem in messages
[14:38] <Bodsda> Pici, u sure? if i use apt, apt causes it, firefox=ff wgget=wget <appUsingWifi>=<appUsingWifiLag>
[14:38] <m-c> Neat.   Guest38348 - check for a known issue in the Ubuntu Forums
[14:38] <jameslr> if forever is in the last couple years then sure :P
[14:38] <Guest38348> Jul  1 09:06:27 eric-desktop syslogd 1.5.0#1ubuntu1: restart.

[14:38] <wiramaswara> i have problem using ltsp. When client accessing LTSP Server, it show the busybox n cannot continue. Whats wrong?
[14:39] <macrobad> Bodsa: in htop you have a line on the top, which shows your the CPU load, and the memory utilisation. Particularly, the cpu load bar is colour-coded. What colour is prevalent during the spikes? Also, have you tried using ping or telnet? Does it produce spikes?
[14:39] <lenix_> jameslr, did a quick search in /messages for anything related to fstab or the share name , nothing found ..
[14:40] <Vec> Hi, I am trying to compile mISDN on ubuntu and I am getting this error "*** CFLAGS was changed in "/usr/src/mISDN-1_1_7_2/drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN/Makefile". Fix it to use EXTRA_CFLAGS", any ideas ?
[14:40] <lenix_> sorry for the trouble man
[14:40] <nullkuhl> guys, i am trying to install hardy heron now, when i read the preparing disk space part, i choose manual, but it keeps sacnning disks for ever and i think the process freezes, can any one help plz ?
[14:40] <jameslr> lenix_: but if you sudo mount -a it mounts for you?
[14:41] <zirikili> hi all. I am trying to use the System > Preferences > Resolution to configure a second monitor to my laptop. The problem is the second one always be like a mirror of the main monitor. how do I fix it?
[14:41] <[matrim]> has anyone used NTLM on Hardy server?
[14:41] <lenix_> lenix@x:~$ sudo mount -a
[14:41] <lenix_> Password:
[14:41] <Bodsda> macrobad, it turns RED -- and no ping doesnt cause lag, but its an extremely tiny packet its sending
[14:41] <lenix_> then it mounts no problem
[14:42] <macrobad> Bodsa: try to telnet somewhere
[14:42] <TGD> google.com telnet that
[14:42] <zirikili> hi all. I am trying to use the System > Preferences > Resolution to configure a second monitor to my laptop. The problem is the second one always be like a mirror of the main monitor. how do I fix it?
[14:44] <Bodsda> macrobad, however if i increase the ping packet size to 50000 it lags
[14:44] <TGD> 50 meg?
[14:44] <nado12111> hi there
[14:44] <macrobad> Bodsa: For example, telnet to wikipedia.org on port 80 and request a root page, e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext_Transfer_Protocol#Sample
[14:44] <Bodsda> macrobad, yes telnet causes a small amount of lag
[14:45] <macrobad> Bodsa: Then it's not your kernel or wireless
[14:45] <nado12111> anybody got an idea why my usb hdd won't be recognized, not even listed when i type fdisk -l ???
[14:45] <Bodsda> macrobad, please go on
[14:45] <mgolisch> nado12111: no usb controler drivers loaded?
[14:45] <macrobad> Bodsa, it's very likely your networking settings.
[14:45] <Bodsda> nado12111, does your bios recognize it?
[14:45] <kaliMastah> can i use wine to install a winrar to my ubuntu?
[14:45] <mgolisch> nado12111: what does dmesg say? isnt it detected at all?
[14:45] <hacksilber> i'm using cpufrequtils and was wondering how i set for performance mode when plugged in and using the scaling when on battery?
[14:45] <Bodsda> macrobad, please explain more ;~)
[14:46] <nado12111> mgolisch: how can i check that? besides, my usb mouse wouldn't work either, would it?
[14:46] <Cheesypieces> hi guys, where can i find and install fonts?
[14:46] <stansmith> omg where did my cube go?!
[14:46] <macrobad> Bodsa: First of all, ping is supposed to send small packets, why do you want to increase the packet size? Have you altered anything else?
[14:46] <Bodsda> nado12111, does your usb hd have a seperate power supply?
[14:46] <Bodsda> macrobad, no, i just wanted to increase packet size to see if ping could cause lag
[14:46] <nado12111> Bodsda: i tried to boot it, but something seems to be corrupt, it froze...
[14:46] <lenix_> jameslr, any idea ? I'm thinking of posting the problem on the forums maybe ;/
[14:46] <nado12111> Bodsda: nope, it's 2,5"
[14:46] <stansmith> ill fart on your grave!
[14:47] <mgolisch> nado12111: have a look at the last rows of dmesg
[14:47] <Bodsda> nado12111, you may not be getting enough power to the drive, remove all other usb devices and try again
[14:47] <mgolisch> after you pluged it in
[14:47] <jameslr> lenix_: I'm not sure why it's not starting. certainly someone else has done this before. just not me :(
[14:47] <nado12111> mgolisch, Bodsda, thanks, will try that, gimme a minute :)
[14:48] <lenix_> jameslr,  I feel you man, thanks for everything :)
[14:48] <nullkuhl> guys, i am trying to install hardy heron now, when i read the preparing disk space part, i choose manual, but it keeps sacnning disks for ever and i think the process freezes, can any one help plz ?
[14:48] <jameslr> lenix_: welcome - sorry I couldn't be more help
[14:48] <lenix_> <3
[14:48] <macrobad> Bodsa: :) Try to tcpdump the traffic on your wireless. First, without any explicit activity, and then with it. Just run 'sudo tcpdump -i eth1' (or whatever your wireless card is called).
[14:49] <Bodsda> macrobad, should i close all internet using apps (inlcuding xchat) then try with something heavy like youtube?
[14:49] <TGD> Youtube isnt heavy no more
[14:49] <Bodsda> TGD, not helpfull
[14:49] <macrobad> Bodsa: First try without any apps. What if tcpdump would be slow??
[14:50] <Bodsda> macrobad, ok, cya in a sec, cheers dude
[14:50] <TGD> Bodsda try a 3d game on the internet
[14:50] <macrobad> Bodsa: then something light, e.g. telnet. Then, if everything is OK, try Firefox

[14:50] <Xavura> I need a good editor for Web Development on Ubuntu, on Windows I used e-text editor and PHP Designer 08, if that helps
[14:50] <mf_irc> when I call ntpdate I get the error no servers can be used

[14:50] <Xavura> I'm using GEdit right now
[14:51] <Sergeant_Pony> anyone having a problem with ff3 freezing after watching a video?

[14:51] <Pici> !time | mf_irc check these links
[14:51] <amenado> mf_irc-> use another ntp server

[14:59] <eitreach> macrobad: tried that. Black screen.
[15:00] <Pici> !es | GhP
[15:00] <Bodsda> macrobad, was that command   ever meant to finish by itself?
[15:00] <eitreach> xorg.conf seems messed up as well. no drivers listed.
[15:00] <macrobad> eitreach: Is it black and dark at all, or is it glowing black, or is there a command line?
[15:00] <macrobad> Bodsa: nope, just press Ctrl+C to stop
[15:01] <GhP> eo
[15:01] <eitreach> macrobad: just black. no command prompt unless I start in recovery.
[15:01] <macrobad> eitreach: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' from recovery
[15:02] <macrobad> eitreach: It would reconfigure your X server, as if it was just installed.
[15:02] <Bodsda> macrobad, it scrolled off the screen so i dont have the top part, -- il get the 'while internet heavy' dump now

[15:08] <venkat> How to make dynamic title bar in drupal ?
[15:09] <TGD> venkat look in the settings
[15:09] <Pici> venkat: Try asking in #drupal
[15:10] <Bodsda> macrobad, what should i be looking for in those dumps?
[15:10] <offline_> Any one know if its possible to make it where when you open windows, they start out transparent, rather then having to set it each time I open a new window?
[15:10] <Bodsda> offline_, ccsm --> opacity plugin maybe
[15:11] <Saftool> hello all
[15:11] <Bodsda> hi
[15:11] <Saftool> how do i access my ubuntu machien remotely?  i was to configure (graphically :P ) from a windows machine. i heard there is a terminal program for windows?
[15:11] <offline_> bodsda: no, thats for when u place the cursor at other windows, then the frst windows will be trnsparent
[15:12] <Bodsda> offline_, then you probably want to find the config file for the specific app, but im not sure how to help there, sorry
[15:12] <macrobad> Bodsa: It might be your machine dropping packets as well... Honestly speaking, it is quite difficult to analyze plain text output from tcpdump. You'd be better using Wireshark for local analysis. As for the clues, I don't like that the server was continuously not able to receive your packets... Investigate
[15:12] <macrobad> I have to go..
[15:12] <Pici> offline_: iirc, in the 'general' settings there is a place where you can set opacity by window type.  The folks in #compiz-fusion can help you define that rule better, I forget what the exact syntax is.
[15:12] <Bodsda> macrobad, cheers dude, but i dunno what to investigate
[15:13] <jameslr> !ask | jaemslr
[15:13] <jameslr> !ask | jameslr
[15:13] <jameslr> sorry just testing scripts
[15:13] <Bodsda> jameslr, please dont test them in here
[15:13] <offline_> bodsda: its ok :)
[15:13] <Pici> jameslr: Can you test them in #ubuntu-bots instead of here, please.
[15:13] <offline_> pici: ok thanks for helping
[15:13] <Bodsda> offline_, Pici raises a good point, ask the #compiz-fusion guys
[15:14] <rhalff> hi I get this segmentation fault in every xen domU running gutsy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24222/

[15:15] <offline_> ok
[15:15] <offline_> thanks
[15:15] <leeping2007> Hi there, I'm having problems with openssh. Here's what I'm encountering: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24223/
[15:15] <leeping2007> The output is identical to a working ssh session, up until that "Connection reset by peer" line
[15:15] <Ballena> Hi. Does anyone know where I can find a help channel for BitlBee?
[15:16] <Pici> leeping2007: This is the main error: Not a RSA1 key file /home/leeping/.ssh/id_rsa
[15:16] <leeping2007> Pici: I beg to differ - a working SSH session to a different server still has that same line in the output
[15:17] <Pici> leeping2007: Really... hm.
[15:17] <bella> any Idea how to stop the screen blanking nonsense?
[15:17] <Saftool> does the vnc server on ubuntu work with the windows one?
[15:17] <Pici> Saftool: Sure.
[15:17] <clarkeo> hi just wondering I have two ethernet adapters one which I use to connect a LTSP client and the other one which I use to connect to the network, I can only get an internet connection or connection to the network when the one on the network side is configured with DHCP any ideas how I could convince it to allow a static IP?
[15:17] <Bodsda> I was advised to use wireshark to investigate non recievel of packets, but im not sure how, any thoughts/
[15:17] <Saftool> cool thanx
[15:17] <Bodsda> ?
[15:17] <leeping2007> However, on the working session, the final line is replaced with "debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT received", followed by more output
[15:17] <Pici> leeping2007: Well, Are you using the same command to start ssh in both instances?
[15:17] <leeping2007> Pici: Yes
[15:18] <central> ok no problem with the micro level it is at the maxi but still can not record any
[15:18] <leeping2007> Except for the hostname of course
[15:18] <mgolisch> leeping2007: and you also get those messages about the keyfile?
[15:18] <leeping2007> mgolisch, yes, I do get the same messages about the keyfile
[15:18] <eitreach> I don't get it. in xorg.conf, it only says "configured video device", no drivers listed even though openchrome is installed.
[15:19] <leeping2007> in other words, the debug output is all the same, except for the hostname... the files are identical up to "Connection reset by peer"
[15:20] <bella> stop screen from blanking? I have tried everything...any Ideas?
[15:21] <m-c> bella :  what is screen blanking?
[15:21] <leeping2007> I've googled the problem, but I can't seem to find someone with the exact same error as me
[15:22] <Kartagis> hoşçakalın / bye
[15:22]  * nixnoob <3 CLI
[15:23] <central> so any idea about my MIC problem ?
[15:23] <DJones> bella: how do you mean screen the screen blanking, what are you doing at the time and do you have desktop effects turned on?
[15:24] <hiptobecubic> central, what kind of computer is it?
[15:24] <central> acer aspire 4270
[15:24] <bella> DJones,  when Inactive monitor blanks out after 10 min or so
[15:24] <central> laptop
[15:24] <hiptobecubic> central, have you tried using a plug in mic? as in the jack by the headphone jack?
[15:24] <m-c> bella: Like a screensaver?  Have you checked the screensaver settings?
[15:25] <central> no
[15:25] <bella> running ubuntu 7.10 with xfce DJones
[15:25] <bella> running xscreensaver DJones
[15:25] <central> this computer have a min inside
[15:25] <central> mic inside
[15:25] <DJones> bella: Thats what I thought it might have been, have a look at this website, this modification to your xorg.conf might be what you need, I had a similar proplem and it solved it for me http://tnlessone.wordpress.com/2007/01/27/how-to-get-rid-of-the-10-minutes-blank-screen-screensaver/
[15:25] <bella> and yes of course I have DJones
[15:26] <hiptobecubic> I'm on an hp dv 6700 and my internal can't be accessed for some reason. it's all over the forums and no one seems to know. It works fine with an external mic
[15:26] <spamoom> i'm trying to compile a program, i've got something missing. after 'googling' i've found the instruction 'You'll need to supply -lwsock32' could someone please translate that into simple english for me please ;0
[15:26] <Vilo> hi all
[15:26] <ASULutzy> hiptobecubic: I have the same laptop and the mic works fine
[15:26] <nixnoob> anyone know how to get cmatrix to turn on after inactivity as a screen saver does?
[15:26] <ASULutzy> hiptobecubic: You just have to fiddle around with unmuting/setting the right device to capture
[15:26] <hiptobecubic> ASULutzy, are you serious?! would you mind talking about it for a min?
[15:26] <Vilo> there is a password porn channel here?
[15:26] <slayton> !offtopic | Vilo
[15:27] <m-c> DJones: That sounds like a patch for the next version of ubuntu
[15:27] <Vilo> !offtopic there is a password porn channel here?
[15:27] <Pici> Vilo: No. And stop asking.
[15:27] <hiptobecubic> ASULutzy, what sound drivers are you using? and what audio card do you have? do you know?
[15:27] <central> ok i will try more
[15:27] <hiptobecubic> lol @ Vilo
[15:27] <bella> DJones, I have tried that but you see my xorg crashes on restart after editing
[15:27] <ASULutzy> hiptobecubic: I remember I didn't have my mic working at all, and all I did was click system -> preferences -> sounds and fiddle with the different devices, let me check what I actually have set to capture
[15:27] <enry> looking for a very lightweight mail server for just forwarding emails... any suggestions?
[15:27] <m-c> DJones: Have you checked for / posted it onto launchpad?
[15:27] <Bodsda> goodbye
[15:27] <Vilo> there is a porn channel here?
[15:28] <hiptobecubic> central, try the external mic and see if that works too. it might be a place to start?
[15:28] <TGD> How do i add more desk areas?
[15:28] <central> i dont have external mic for now
[15:28] <slayton> are there any differences in the way that debian hosts repos and ubuntu repos?
[15:28] <DJones> m-c: I used that for Gutsy with gnome and it worked for me, i think there a couple of other websites with similar instructions, maybe there's a slight correction on one of them
[15:29] <hiptobecubic> central, do you have headphones? plug them in and tap on them. just to see if you pick anything up
[15:29] <mEDEc> TGD, are you using compiz or metacity?
[15:29] <TGD> Im using ubuntu
[15:29] <leeping2007> Any other channels where I can ask about SSH problems?
[15:29] <central> all true i install skype but the mic dont work and the sound recorder dont work as well
[15:29] <yoyoned> slayton: no, there are different packages, but set up basicly the same
[15:29] <mEDEc> TGD,  but do you have desktop effects enabled?
[15:29] <TGD> Oh no i dunno what that is
[15:29] <epifanio> hi, does anyone experience using php+mssql on ubuntu server ?
[15:30] <TGD> Well i know what it is but i dunno how to install it
[15:30] <bella> DJones, ?
[15:30] <DJones> bella: I don't know what else to suggest, that (or something very similar from another website) work ok for me with Gutsy
[15:30] <joaopinto> epifanio, you mean mysql, not mssql
[15:30] <mEDEc> well, try right clicking on the desktop switcher in the taskbar, and choose preferences
[15:30] <slayton> right I know the packages are different but I'm wondering if how the REPOSITORIES work are different or are they the same
[15:30] <aO|DB-DX> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzCmIlMpTGA
[15:30] <hiptobecubic> central, well skype is another story. it has issues with pulse
[15:30] <kaliMastah> what application can i use to open a rar file in ubuntu?
[15:30] <mEDEc> there you can set how many desktops you want to use. normally that should be enough
[15:30] <epifanio> i'm tring to enable the mssql extension on a ubuntu server 7.10 , but tring to get info using php have no mssql extension
[15:30] <bella> why should my edition crash xorg?
[15:31] <ASULutzy> hiptobecubic: uploading the screenshot now
[15:31] <epifanio> no i need :  mssql  to connect my ubuntu with a mycrosoft sql server
[15:31] <bazhang> aO|DB-DX, what is that
[15:31] <bella> DJones, why should my edition crash xorg?
[15:31] <hiptobecubic> ASULutzy, ok  thanks
[15:31] <bella> anyway I'll try again
[15:31] <aO|DB-DX> bazhang, ething that must be shared.
[15:32] <ASULutzy> I can't remember the URL... Anyone know the URL for a pastebin sorta thing, except with pictures?
[15:32] <ASULutzy> I guess I could just dump it to my home webserver...
[15:32]  * mEDEc is away
[15:32] <sasuke> anyone knows which ports linuxdc++ uses?
[15:32] <epifanio> i installed the package mssql and freetds, but info.php don't give me any presence of mssql extension :-(
[15:32] <joaopinto> epifanio, I don't believe you can build the mssql extension on linux, since the libraries should only be available for windows...
[15:32] <Gothfunc_> hi.  i have a netgear readynas with cifs shares requiring credentials.  i haven't had many problems until now, but on two machines running hardy, when i mount the shares the permissions of the mount point change to 700 and ownership 1002, instead of the name of the user.  any idea what's going on?
[15:33] <DJones> bella: I'm not sure, if it helps, I think this was the forum post I used to sort the problem out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=347079
[15:34] <epifanio> no, look that exist a package to connect ubuntu with mssql : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=350269
[15:34] <epifanio> but i've problems to get it working :-/
[15:34] <ASULutzy> hiptobecubic: uploading to my home server, just going to take a sec... I guess I could have used photobucket... Oh well
[15:34] <hiptobecubic> ASULutzy, no worries :)
[15:36] <Armored_Azrael> Evolution has begun to not display new mail messages at all.
[15:36] <Armored_Azrael> I look at the Inbox file on the computer, and everything is recorded properly
[15:36] <Armored_Azrael> but Evolution's gui refuses to acknowledge that anything has shown up
[15:37] <OB1FoShoB> anyone here familiar with printing envelopes in openoffice?
[15:38] <Gothfunc_> is it perhaps a problem with cifs extensions?
[15:38] <Saftool> rehi
[15:39] <Saftool> I just installed on a windows machine and want to access the documents on the xp partition. how do i get to it? :)
[15:40] <ASULutzy> Saftool: First you have to figure out which partition is the Windows partition, you can figure this out by typing sudo fdisk -l into a terminal
[15:41] <ryse> this channel is 1337
[15:41] <Saftool> sda1
[15:41] <Saftool> ntfs partition
[15:42] <epifanio> can you suggest me a coomand line that give me all the packages installed on a machine ?
[15:42] <ASULutzy> Saftool: Ok, then do sudo mkdir /media/windows && sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/windows
[15:42] <Paulao_> how i make a shortcut to "Computer" ?
[15:42] <eftex> hoi

[15:43] <alon_m> hi ...I've got a user which seems when he creates files by default group ownership is only readonly, and other users seems fine and group permissions is write and read.....i looked in /etc/passwd and see that the primary group is the same as the other users? i confirmed by su'ing from root as him and it does do this, What might be the issue causing this?
[15:43] <Paulao_> how i make a shortcut to "Computer" ? and for the Trash Can ?
[15:44] <Pici> !de | eftex
[15:44] <DJones> !de | eftex
[15:44] <Saftool> perfect thank y so much ASUL, the && is just to put 2 commands on same line btw?
[15:45] <eftex> sry wrong chan
[15:45] <scifiguy951> i need to put files into a folder and it tells me that i do not have permission what do i do??
[15:45] <l3d> ok when i open terminal to sudo nautilus i see something there i have never seen  sudo : unable to resolve host blah@blah-huh
[15:45] <ASULutzy> Saftool: Yes, pretty much, I think && also makes it so the second command only happens if the first was successful
[15:45] <Pici> l3d: Did you happen to change your hostname?
[15:46] <ASULutzy> l3d: I had that problem after I changed my hostname, had to edit /etc/hosts, and maybe something else to fix it, but it wasn't too hard to do
[15:46] <Saftool> cool :) ... you now whats funny? i can access my "protected" documents folder lol thank god am switching
[15:47] <bazhang> epifanio, dpkg -l
[15:47] <Pici> !hostname | l3d
[15:47] <l3d> ok will try
[15:48] <TGD> How do i add a new desk in hardy
[15:48] <scifiguy951> are you going to have breakfast?
[15:49] <BezNalogov> Hi people. I use ubuntu 8.04 with gnome. I have a problem with gnome itself, since the last reboot it doesn't show in the down bar the active programs, also the 'taskbar' in the upper part of the screen doesn't work anymore
[15:49] <scifiguy951> nvm that last one
[15:49] <scifiguy951> i need to put files into a folder and it tells me that i do not have permission what do i do??
[15:49] <BezNalogov> How can I fix this? Reset the gnome profile perhaps?
[15:49] <hiptobecubic> TGD do you see the little rectangles in the lower right corner? right click and you should get options
[15:49] <TGD> yer
[15:50] <BezNalogov> How can I reset my gnome profile?
[15:50] <Saftool> do i have to download a separate program for antivirus protection etc? from add remove?
[15:50] <masterkiller> ack joomla isn't in hardy repository??
[15:51] <joaopinto> !virus | Saftool
[15:52] <Gothfunc_> can anyone that is familiar with cifs help with my above problem?
[15:53] <soundray> Gothfunc_: if you feel that you have waited long enough, repeat your original question to give people who have joined in the meantime (like me) a chance to reply
[15:53] <TGD> whats a good theme manager and that
[15:53] <vasily> Hello
[15:54] <Gothfunc_> soundray: ok.  i thought perhaps repeating was a nono.  thanks :)
[15:54] <scifiguy951> how can i get permission to modify folder contents?
[15:54] <soundray> Gothfunc_: you won't get flamed if you wait 10 or 15 minutes.
[15:55] <vasily> Am I at the right channel to fix Audacity in Ubuntu?
[15:55] <Gothfunc_> i have a netgear readynas with cifs shares requiring credentials.  i haven't had many problems until now, but on two machines running hardy, when i mount the shares the permissions of the mount point change to 700 and ownership 1002, instead of the name of the user.  any idea what's going on?  cifs extensions issue?
[15:55] <ASULutzy> scifiguy951: Either change the permissions, or do it as root with sudo
[15:55] <Gothfunc_> soundray: gotcha
[15:55] <scifiguy951> how can i change the permissiojns?
[15:55] <m-c> scifiguy951: perhaps running the sudo command from the command line -- changing the ownership is probably a good idea, if they are not system files
[15:55] <m-c> scifiguy951: What files are they?
[15:55] <xczsacsz> Hi can someone help me? i am a new user to ubuntu and i have no idea about comands in this operating system. I ordered my copy and i reseved it 2day
[15:56] <scifiguy951> they are files to a program
[15:56] <scifiguy951> celestia
[15:56] <Pici> xczsacsz: What sort of commands?
[15:56] <xczsacsz> And i dont know how to instal restricted drivers
[15:56] <m-c> xczsacsz: You tried to pop the CD into the drive and boot to it?  You can try it out without making changes
[15:56] <PTBD> hallo. i have a card reader and everytime i insert a SD card a window pops up telling me unable to mount volume
[15:57] <m-c> scifiguy951: What files do you mean to change, though?
[15:57] <soundray> Gothfunc_: just to be clear: it used to work  and now it doesn't?
[15:57] <Pici> xczsacsz: From the desktop, go to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers
[15:57] <epifanio> ok i'm near a solution
[15:57] <scifiguy951> i want to add files, but it wont let me
[15:57] <m-c> PTBD: type dmesg at the command line, and see what it says for an error
[15:57] <vasily> Does someone knows how to make USB mic working?
[15:57] <xczsacsz> there is only one driver in there called nvidia_new
[15:58] <Gothfunc_> soundray: correct.  the ones that don't work are fresh installations, but configured the same way as the previous attempts
[15:58] <Pici> xczsacsz: Is it checked?
[15:58] <xczsacsz> yes
[15:58] <m-c> scifiguy951: What directory?  What file names?
[15:58] <Pici> xczsacsz: and in use?
[15:58] <xczsacsz> yes
[15:58] <xczsacsz> ubuntu starts up so it has to be in use
[15:58] <m-c> xczsacsz:  \o/
[15:58] <ubuntu__> hey hey hey
[15:58] <m-c> !hi |ubuntu__
[15:58] <PTBD> m-c, there are a lot of lines. which error is important?
[15:58] <C3PO-Rogers> greetings.
[15:58] <Slart> I'm using brasero to create music cd's but I often look for those little extra feature (volume normalization of an entire cd, reencoding of material etc) and brasero doesn't seem to have this.. any suggestions for a audio cd creator with those extra features?
[15:58] <Pici> xczsacsz: Okay, then your restricted driver is installed.
[15:58] <soundray> Gothfunc_: the fresh installations are clients to a server whose shares mount all right elsewhere?
[15:59] <vasily> Does someone see my posts?
[15:59] <scifiguy951> usr/share/celestia/extras
[15:59] <soundray> vasily: no, nobody
[15:59] <m-c> PTBD: cut and paste the lines into pastebin
[15:59] <xczsacsz> but it doesnt alow me to set my graphics to the highest under the diplay properties sumwhere there
[15:59] <idefix_> how do you set a webbrowser default?
[15:59] <m-c> !pastebin |ptbd
[15:59] <xczsacsz> it says the driver is incorrect
[15:59] <soundray> vasily: System-Preferences-Sound -- select your USB  device as the capture device
[15:59] <Gothfunc_> soundray: i'm not sure i have any machines without this problem now.  i'm checking that as we speak.
[15:59] <AdvoWork> bit random, but anyone got any ideas if this is possible. Multiple touchscreens running off one pc, running ubuntu, where each instance/monitor can run independantly, ie each one does its own thing?
[16:00] <m-c> idefix_: System -> Pref -> Preferred Apps
[16:00] <Caesi> Hullo .. by accident I installed all programs to my Home folder (I did everything via the terminal expecting that it would install everything to /usr), is this worth formatting for? :)
[16:00] <soundray> Caesi: what programs?
[16:00] <[d0wn]> Hi, I need some help. Last night, I was making some symlinks in an X11 folder, and now all I can see is my cursor
[16:00] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: had that once problem before but I can't remember now. Can you check if "nvidia-glx-new" is installed from the package manager?
[16:00] <Caesi> soundray, everything
[16:00] <m-c> xczsacsz: What kind of graphics card?
[16:00] <Gothfunc_> AdvoWork: vmware server perhaps?
[16:00] <Caesi> cos the default folder in the terminal is the home folder
[16:00] <soundray> Caesi: aren't you using the package manager?
[16:00] <PTBD> m-c, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24237/
[16:00] <Caesi> and I just aptituted everything
[16:01] <Caesi> no
[16:01] <xczsacsz> haha sorry for the nick but i had to rush in for help
[16:01] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: np, there's tab completion in pidgin ;)
[16:01] <xczsacsz> NVIDIA Ge force 7500 LE
[16:01] <Slart> AdvoWork: that seems awesome.. just connecting a screen (with built-in keyboard/mouse) and using it as a dumb terminal..
[16:01] <soundray> Caesi: how do you mean you 'aptituted everything'?
[16:01] <Sylphid|work> AdvoWork, that setup works fine for me however my screens are not touch
[16:01] <scifiguy951> usr/share/celestia/extras  thats the file directorty
[16:02] <Caesi> in the default folder in the terminal I "sudo aptitude install blabla"-ed everything
[16:02] <m-c> PTBD: I do not think it will work.  The drive is not formatted correctly, per FAT specifications
[16:02] <vasily> I got: Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings.
[16:02] <Slart> AdvoWork: I think you might run into problems though.. there might be an easier solution if you buy a small computer to use with the touch-screen and run it as a regular terminal
[16:02] <xczsacsz> abit of a weak graphics card but i had to see if i can get beryl on my ubuntu it looks so awesome
[16:02] <sam__> i hear ppl talking about boycotting mono? whats the issue?
[16:02] <idefix_> m-c thx, it is as from restart?
[16:02] <soundray> Caesi: that's fine -- the packages are installed to there proper directories then (/usr/ et cetera)
[16:02] <PTBD> it's a sd card from a camera. it was probably formatted with windows
[16:02] <AdvoWork> Sylphid|mobile can you explain your setup then please?
[16:03] <m-c> xczsacsz: AMD is coming out with open source graphic drivers for ATI-model cards.  Keep it in mind, if you are in the market for a new card.
[16:03] <Caesi> ah right.. and why does ubuntu create folders in my Home folder?
[16:03] <m-c> xczsacsz: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature
[16:03] <Caesi> hidden ones
[16:03] <nixnoob> m-c: where did you hear that?
[16:03] <db92> anyone got any clue why my shell scripts may be skipping commands? if i do them individually it all works ok but if i use the script which has them in some specific order they just dont run
[16:03] <AdvoWork> Slart ideally if this works with 4 monitors,it would perhaps expand to 20 touch screens running from one server.. which may be ott.. so was thinking thin clients which = expense :S
[16:03] <Saftool> can i create shared folders on a ubuntu machine?  where i cna either map a drive to it from another windows or ubuntu machine or even just browse it?
[16:03] <Slart> Caesi: usually for program settings etc.. your personal settings goes to your home folder
[16:03] <soundray> Caesi: the home folder is the default  location for personal configuration files
[16:03] <Caesi> is this just some form of Shared Documents of Windows?
[16:04] <soundray> Caesi: no
[16:04] <xczsacsz> i ordered my copy of ubuntu and got it in the mail i was so suprised thanx!! but i am finding it very confusing to operate
[16:04] <m-c> nixnoob: The R500 and earlier drivers are already out and really nice 3D
[16:04] <Slart> AdvoWork: mm.. it would nice to just plug them in..
[16:04] <xczsacsz> lots of commands and stuff
[16:04] <Caesi> I mean documents and settings :)
[16:04] <m-c> nixnoob: Expect them in the next Ubuntu release
[16:04] <xczsacsz> is there a easier way? like installing a software package?
[16:04] <soundray> xczsacsz: are you use to Windows?
[16:04] <soundray> *used
[16:04] <Slart> Caesi: more like documents and settings, local settings in windows
[16:04] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: go to applications->add/remove
[16:04] <grulk> Hi guys. I reinstall windows and I lost grub. I reinstall it to mbr like this root(hd0,1) setup(hd0) from grub>. Now after reboot it doesn't load windows automatically but appears grub> on screen. What should I do next. may someone help me?
[16:04] <zeeqy> hi all,...looking for some help with SVN...????
[16:05] <nixnoob> m-c: But the driver is proprietary not open source, you are talking of the AMD Catalyst 8.x series (fglrx)
[16:05] <AdvoWork> Slart yeah, just unsure where to start
[16:05] <Pici> zeeqy: What sort of help? Installing it or using it?
[16:05] <vasily> soundray: I got a message: Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings
[16:05] <Caesi> thanks a lot :)
[16:05] <AdvoWork> Gothfunc_ reckon vmware server would work?
[16:05] <zeeqy> pici: using it...
[16:05] <m-c> nixnoob I am talking about "ati" and "radeonHD" drivers
[16:05] <Slart> AdvoWork: how are the displays connected to the system? ordinary vga/hdmi/dvi connections? usb?
[16:05] <mgolisch> grulk: you did something wrong proly if just the grub shell apears it means it couldnt find its config file
[16:05] <soundray> grulk: grub hasn't found its files on (hd0,1). What's your ubuntu root partition?
[16:05] <nixnoob> nixnoob: yes but im not sure that those are actually FROM ati.
[16:06] <yesitisjustme> will there be a speed difference if i  do swap on beginning of unallocated space vs end of unallocated space will one be faster than the other?
[16:06] <Saftool> can i create a shared folder on ubuntu? for both othe rlinux machines and windows ones as well
[16:06] <AdvoWork> Slart its just an idea in my head at the moment so it can be anyway, im just thinking the idea out
[16:06] <Gothfunc_> AdvoWork: 20 vms on one machine?  sounds ambitious :)
[16:06] <kml> hi
[16:06] <grulk> soundray /dev/sda6
[16:06] <Slart> I'm using brasero to create music cd's but I often look for those extra features (volume normalization of an entire cd, reencoding of material etc) and brasero doesn't seem to have this.. any suggestions for a audio cd creator with those extra features?
[16:06] <nixnoob> lol did I just address myself?
[16:06] <soundray> grulk: that's (hd0,5) in grub speak
[16:06] <m-c> nixnoob: AMD bought out ATI last year and opened the specifications to their cards a few months back.  Happy to discuss this further in #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:06] <AdvoWork> Gothfunc_ yeah, it does a bit lol, any suggestions?
[16:06] <xczsacsz> so can anyone help me?
[16:06] <AdvoWork> all they will be doing is viewing a web page, updating a mysql table, thats it
[16:06] <Pici> zeeqy: You might want to try asking in #svn then
[16:06] <vasily> soundray: I got the message: Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings
[16:07] <Gothfunc_> AdvoWork: what is the setup for?
[16:07] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: what do you need help with?
[16:07] <grulk> soundray, why 5?
[16:07] <Gothfunc_> AdvoWork: oh ok..
[16:07] <zeeqy> pici:sure
[16:07] <yesitisjustme> will swap be faster in a certain location of harddrive or same?
[16:07] <hustle> hi guys. i installed ubuntu 8.04 yesterday and every boot sequence I see 3 seconds grub options .... is there any possibility to boot immediately
[16:07] <soundray> vasily: I heard you. I'm not familiar with this error.
[16:07] <m-c> scifiguy951: Okay, so from the terminal:  sudo chown xxx:xxx  /usr/share/celestia/extras   (where xxx is your user name)
[16:07] <soundray> grulk: because grub starts counting at 0, so /dev/sda1 is (hd0,0)
[16:07] <xczsacsz> i need a restricted driver for Ubuntu i have a NVIDIA Ge force 7500LE
[16:07] <Slart> yesitisjustme: I think it's faster on the outer edge of the drive... which normally would be on the start of the drive.. afaik..
[16:08] <grulk> /dev/sda2 then is 1 right
[16:08] <yesitisjustme> ok cool
[16:08] <Slart> yesitisjustme: but you will probably not see a difference
[16:08] <vasily> soundray: is there a specific channel for audio in Ubuntu?
[16:08] <Gothfunc_> soundray: ok, it seems i don't have any machine here that's mounting the share correctly.  just the two machines with the problem.
[16:08] <nixnoob> m-c: i asked u in ubuntu-offtopic
[16:08] <Caesi> does anyone use Wine?
[16:08] <grulk> soundray, make a mistake is not sda6 is sda2  so it should be hd0,1, or am I wrong?
[16:08] <soundray> vasily: no, but there are some troubleshooting pages on the wiki -- I'll get the bot to pm you
[16:08] <hiptobecubic> vasily, it depends on your problem. try #pulseaudio or #alsa
[16:08] <soundray> !sound > vasily
[16:09] <db92> anyone got any clue why my shell scripts may be skipping commands? if i do them individually it all works ok but if i use the script some just dont run
[16:09] <Gothfunc_> AdvoWork: just having a look at some prices
[16:09] <xczsacsz> can anyone please PM me willing to help me
[16:09] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: can you check if nvidia-glx-new is installed? go to system->administration->synaptic package manager
[16:09] <soundray> grulk: (hd0,1) -- yes
[16:09] <db92> Caesi, ye
[16:09] <Slart> db92: scripts doesn't just skip some instructions.. something else is wrong.. is this run from cron? as root?
[16:09] <Caesi> db92, thx.. would I have to install DirectX to try to play a couple of games?
[16:09] <xczsacsz> if it isnt installed wat do i do?
[16:09] <erUSUL> !nvidia | xczsacsz
[16:10] <soundray> Gothfunc_: and is the problem the same on each machine?
[16:10] <xczsacsz> i have seen that
[16:10] <xczsacsz> and it confuses me
[16:10] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: i'd ask you to install or reinstall it then
[16:10] <db92> Caesi, im not an expert and that often depends on the game, i spose #winehq should be able to support you a bit better
[16:10] <[d0wn]> I ran two ln -s, and cp -s commands last night in a few X11 font directories so I could run a VNC server (which didnt work), but now when I tried getting back on to my computer, I just can only see my cursor. ssh wont connect, so does anyone know of a way I could fix this problem?
[16:10] <Caesi> thanks
[16:10] <soundray> grulk: do you have more than one hard disk drive?
[16:10] <db92> Slart, idno, some just dont run >>
[16:10] <db92> Slart, lemme try and debug from console though, still havent
[16:10] <erUSUL> xczsacsz: you only have to go to System>Admin>Hardware drivers and activte the driver for your card
[16:10] <Slart> db92: can you pastebin the script?
[16:10] <Slart> !pastebin | db92
[16:10] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: a friend of mine had a similar issue, and i remember that solved it...it's strange but worked
[16:11] <Sylphid|work> [d0wn], what files did you link
[16:11] <xczsacsz> the drriver is activated but i cannot enable my graphics to its fullest
[16:11] <Slart> db92: usually these kinds of problems comes from the script running as root.. thus not finding some binaries in /home or something like that
[16:11] <xczsacsz> it doesnt alow me to it prompts me with a error message that it is not able to do so
[16:12] <[d0wn]> Sylphid|work: I believe they were /usr/share/lib/X11/fonts/ to /usr/lib/X11/fonts/
[16:12] <soundray> [d0wn]: can you still  boot in recovery mode?
[16:12] <[d0wn]> Sylphid|work: hang on, let me find the web page I used to find the commands
[16:12] <butchoy_> how can I add another panel?...
[16:12] <xczsacsz> well ubuntu runs it works normally but i cannot get the cube flipping window and visual effects
[16:12] <Slart> db92: or it might be that the script is run using dash/sh instead of bash.. there are some small differences
[16:13] <W8TAH> hey folks -- if i do an apt-get install - there are several types of packages listed -- those that are going to be installed, those that are suggested and some that are recomended -- how do i get it to do them all?
[16:13] <hansemann> is it possible to reset gnome power manager statistics?
[16:13] <butchoy_> I deleted my second panel I want it back....
[16:13] <db92> Slart, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24241/
[16:13] <xczsacsz> i dont even know how to install the beryl theme
[16:13] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: open a terminal and run "compiz --replace". what do you get?
[16:13] <db92> Slart, its "wine-based" but my problem is that metacity --replace and compiz --replace are skipped
[16:13] <soundray> !cube > xczsacsz
[16:13] <[d0wn]> Soundray: do I just press ESC at the GRUB bootloader to choose recovery mode?
[16:13] <AdvoWork> Gothfunc_ prices for/
[16:14] <Slart> db92: ah.. you want to run some wine software with metacity instead of compiz..let me take a look
[16:14] <soundray> [d0wn]: yes, press Esc to see the grub  menu and select the second boot entry
[16:14] <[d0wn]> Sylphid|work: These were the directories I linked: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/problem-with-vnc-385566/
[16:14] <grulk> soundray, it works fine now, but ubuntu loads automatically it doesn't appear the menu to select which OS to boot
[16:14] <[d0wn]> soundray: hang on, let me give it a shot really quick
[16:15] <soundray> grulk: change the line 'hiddenmenu' in /boot/grub/menu.lst to '#hiddenmenu'
[16:15] <xczsacsz> thanx ubottu (thanx i will check that out once i get my graphics card working and get my visual effects at it highest)
[16:15] <Pici> xczsacsz: ubottu is a bot ;)
[16:15] <[d0wn]> Nevermind, guys! I just went back to my computer, and it appears to have loaded everything. Thanks for your help, anyways!
[16:15] <xczsacsz> oh haha
[16:15] <hansemann> is it possible to reset gnome power manager statistics? i got a new battery and want to get new statistics.
[16:16] <Slart> db92: what happens if you run the script in a terminal? any error messages?
[16:16] <soundray> [d0wn]: we like problems that fix themselves ;)
[16:16] <xczsacsz> i am even taking to my self here.
[16:16] <hiptobecubic> I'm having trouble getting alsa to recognize my external microphone. I did some digging around and looked at how windows classifies my sound card and it seems to me that alsa auto-detects the wrong hardware. I haven't been able to force the right hardware however. I started a thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=784597 that explains what i've found.
[16:16] <db92> Slart, lemme check, although it is quite possible that i may crash
[16:16] <Slart> db92: I can't really see anything that would cause problems.. there shouldn't really be any need to run wineserver -k unless the app crashes
[16:16] <grulk> soundray, doesn't find that option on menu.lst
[16:16] <Slart> db92: I'll be here when you get back if you crash =)
[16:16] <xczsacsz> so wen i am on ubuntu do i connect to the internet and then what do i do?
[16:17] <db92> Slart, sometimes after exiting some instances of the app stay loaded
[16:17] <xczsacsz> to get the restricated driver for my NVIDIA Ge force 7500LE
[16:17] <db92> Slart, so i want it to close anything wine-related so as not to get the error message that an instance of the game is already running
[16:17] <Slart> db92: ah.. well.. it won't do any harm ...
[16:18] <soundray> grulk: it's normally on line 20
[16:18] <Pici> xczsacsz: What does the error message say that "it doesnt alow me to it prompts me with a error message that it is not able to do so" ?
[16:18] <jon__> hi can anyone help me? i cannot record mic input
[16:18] <jon__> it sounds on the speakers
[16:18] <grulk> soundray, no, not in there
[16:18] <db92> Slart, i got this error from compiz i think
[16:18] <db92> GConf backend: There is an unsupported value at path /apps/compiz/plugins/scale/allscreens/options/initiate_edge. Settings from this path won't be read. Try to remove that value so that operation can continue properly.
[16:19] <butchoy__> how can I add another panel?....
[16:19] <soundray> grulk: is there a timeout line?
[16:19] <grulk> yes
[16:19] <xczsacsz> it says the driver isnt compatible something like that sorry i am not in ubuntu now
[16:19] <soundray> grulk: what is it set to?
[16:19] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: you need to install nvidia-glx new. Refer to this thread: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=738571
[16:19] <grulk> 5
[16:19] <Slart> db92: but the first "metacity --replace" command worked?
[16:19] <xczsacsz> but it asks me for a restricted driver...
[16:19] <db92> ye i suppose
[16:19] <ramukmar> should be "nvidia-glx-new"
[16:19] <Slart> db92: that line might just be a warning.. it doesn't seem fatal to me
[16:19] <xczsacsz> ok
[16:20] <soundray> !pastebin | grulk, can you pastebin your menu.lst pls
[16:20] <s0u][ight> hello i have a problem with my touchpad (acer aspire 5920G) laptop
[16:20] <xczsacsz> wat is a thread?
[16:20] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: a conversation on a forum, like that one :)
[16:20] <Slart> db92: but the script worked when you run it from the terminal? compiz is disabled, the game runs etc?
[16:20] <xczsacsz> oh ok i'll read it
[16:20] <xczsacsz> thanx
[16:20] <s0u][ight> normally double hitting and then keeping on pressing is like holding mousebutton but now there happens nothing :(
[16:21] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: sure np, let me know if it works after that
[16:21] <xczsacsz> another question. is there a way to run windows vista in ubuntu
[16:21] <mad_max02> how can I check if I have firefox3.0 installed or its still beta ??
[16:21] <mad_max02> and how can I install 3.0 if I have bate
[16:21] <W8TAH> hey folks - how do i create a user that is restricted to certain directories etc?
[16:21] <mad_max02> *beta
[16:21] <butchoy__> yes..thru virtualbox
[16:22] <Slart> xczsacsz: I think you can run it in a vm.. what do you want to do with it? play games?
[16:22] <[d0wn]> Okay, I guess it wasn't fixed. I tried logging in, but now it's only loading my backgroun and cursor. I don't know, it may just be running really slow? because I gave it about 15 minutes to load the login screen, as I wasn't at the computer looking at it
[16:22] <yoyoned> xczsacsz: vmware
[16:22] <jon__> can anyone solve my audio problem in ubuntu?
[16:22] <jon__> ant record mic in
[16:22] <soundray> mad_max02: are you on hardy?
[16:22] <xczsacsz> i want to use my normal windowsvista but i want ubuntu features on it
[16:22] <xczsacsz> the cube and burning up windows and such
[16:22] <yoyoned> xczsacsz: no
[16:23] <mad_max02> soundray, yep
[16:23] <butchoy__> i prefer virtualbox than vmware...
[16:23] <TGD> Wont ever happen
[16:23] <Slart> jon__: perhaps if you tell us how you try to record.. what software you're using... what soundcard you're using etc.. what you found when googling the forums etc etc.. we might be able to help you
[16:23] <bella> have problems with eition of xorg.conf once edited system restarts in vesa failsafe mode
[16:23] <bella> any Ideas?
[16:23] <xczsacsz> ok
[16:23] <jon__> Slart iam trying to reocord using krecord
[16:23] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: well, you can make the virtualbox "Windows" window wobble at least, heh
[16:23] <magnetron> bella, use the backup you made before editing xorg.conf
[16:23] <db92> Slart, no actually it got stuck because of that error
[16:23] <jon__> Slart the mic inout sound goes directly to the speakers
[16:24] <c_lisp> is there a program that lets you view jpeg bitmaps etc in just terminal?
[16:24] <Slart> db92: but if you run the same command from the terminal it works?
[16:24] <db92> Slart, but if i run compiz --replace & alone and then ctrl+c, it does take me to the special effects
[16:24] <asoare> hello, can someone help me fix a problem with gnome-settings-daemon ? it always crashes and the visual interface is very poor. i get the following error: There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work correctly.The Settings Daemon restarted too many times.
[16:24] <norbi> Hello, this is not an Ubuntu question per-say but rather a Totem player question.  I have downloaded a visualization plugin for Totem, compiled it, but I do not know where to place the library.  Any help would be appreciated.
[16:24] <soundray> mad_max02: run 'apt-cache policy firefox-3.0' to find out your  current version (marked ***). If it's still beta, do a 'sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'
[16:24] <jon__> Slart there is no soundcard it is inbuilt
[16:24] <pistorexDD> norbi ok
[16:24] <Saftool> why is the chekc updates on my firefox disabled? how do i update from the beta?
[16:24] <bella> command to use backup ineffective magnetron
[16:25] <xczsacsz> ramukmar: the nvidia-glx-new package do i download it in ubuntu. sorry if i am seeming abit irritating haha
[16:25] <Pici> Saftool: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[16:25] <xczsacsz> i am new to all this
[16:25] <alexbobp> I'm running a webserver on ubuntu.  After installing the package "php5-xmlrpc", the web server no longer starts.  I get the error "apache2: Syntax error on line 183 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/xmlrpc.load: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_xmlrpc.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_xmlrpc.so: undefined symbol: xmlrpc_registry_new".  Does anybody know what this error m
[16:25] <jon__> also audacity doesnt even detect the mic
[16:25] <Slart> db92: why ctrl+c? you shouldn't have to do that after the &
[16:25] <mad_max02> soundray, thanks. I'm on it
[16:25] <magnetron> bella, no
[16:25] <bella> magnetron, can restore from phigh but of course without the desired changes
[16:25] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: just go to system->adminstration->synaptic package manager
[16:25] <db92> Slart, to get me typing again, if i dont ctrl+c the effects are active but i cant type anything in the terminal :p
[16:25] <Saftool> Pici:latest just downlaoded it now
[16:25] <ramukmar> xczsacsz: then look for nvidia-glx-new in that list, select and install
[16:25] <magnetron> bella, you made a copy of your xorg.conf file before you edited it. right?
[16:26] <xczsacsz> ok
[16:26] <xczsacsz> be back later
[16:26] <bella> yes sir
[16:26] <soundray> Saftool: it's disabled so you don't bypass ubuntu's package management
[16:26] <bella> yes magnetron
[16:26] <Gothfunc_> AdvoWork: sorry, phone :)  seems like vmware would be a bit overkill.  if you can figure out how to connect multiple monitors and keyboards up and have them running seperate sessions that seems better
[16:26] <magnetron> bella, then copy it back and restart the x server
[16:26] <Slart> jon__: now take all this info and put it into one line and people might be able to help you.. while you wait you can google with the same info
[16:26] <Pici> Saftool: Then you'd need to run the updates from System>Administration>Update Manager (I think thats the app name).
[16:26] <soundray> Saftool: you can upgrade to the latest packages, including firefox-3.0 final, with 'sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'
[16:26] <Gothfunc_> soundray: yes, the same
[16:26] <Slart> db92: that sounds odd.. tried just pressing enter?
[16:26] <Gothfunc_> soundray: sorry fo the interruption
[16:27] <Gothfunc_> *for
[16:27] <Saftool> oh ... thanx guys that was my next question lol
[16:27] <incorrect> how can i get the number of packages in my apt db?
[16:27] <bella> it doesnt work magnetron
[16:27] <magnetron> !doesn't work | bella
[16:27] <alexbobp> that was a mistake, the package that caused the problem was libapache2-mod-xmlrpc2.
[16:28] <soundray> Gothfunc_: are you using gnome's mechanisms for sharing and mounting?
[16:28] <hyakuhei> Hi all, I have a LUKS/LVM installation and I want to re-install ubuntu without clobbering user files in the different logical volumes. Is there a recommended way / guide for doing this ?
[16:28] <Gothfunc_> soundray: just a straightforward mount from the console
[16:28] <lenix_> /server/LENiX /media/LENiX smbfs credentials=/etc/samba/creds 0 0   , was giving me trouble, i got rid of the credentials option and passed the username / password directly ( username=aa,password=xx ) .. and auto mount worked
[16:28] <lenix_> any idea why using the credentials gives me trouble ?
[16:28] <soundray> Saftool: or use the graphical version, 'gksudo update-manager'
[16:29] <db92> Slart, ye that works as well :P
[16:29] <Slart> db92: you can try disabling the "scale" plugin too.. unless you use it a lot.. the error message seem to be about it
[16:29] <pangki> #jakarta
[16:29] <bella> I have restored using rconfigure phigh, command using command line to restore backed files doesn 't produce desired result, so it seems that edition of xorg conf in my configuration isn possible
[16:29] <BlackCow_> is it possible to uninstall gnome and install xfce without touching my core ubuntu install?
[16:29] <soundray> Gothfunc_: once you've mounted, can you read and write to the shares with sudo?
[16:29] <bella> ubottu thanks for the helpful  suggestion
[16:29] <Pici> lenix_: What format was data in the credentials file in?
[16:30] <Slart> BlackCow_: gnome is a part of the core ubuntu install.. so no.. but you can install xfce and then uninstall gnome if you want.. you'll still be able to use your computer
[16:30] <lenix_> the format was like
[16:30] <bella> a stupid bot
[16:30] <db92> Slart, and how would i go about doing that? :p
[16:30] <lenix_> username user
[16:30] <lenix_> password pass
[16:30] <jon__> hi all! FREEPORN, i cannot record my mic input using any software runnig hardy kubuntu i have tried jack but no avail. the mic input sound can be heard on the speaker, also audacity doesnt even detect the mic, inbuilt soundcard
[16:30] <Gothfunc_> soundray: yes.
[16:30] <Slart> db92: system, preferences, appearance, visual effects.. there is a settings thingy there somewhere.. if there isn't try !ccsm
[16:30] <BlackCow_> Slart: but will it remove all my program configurations and such?
[16:31] <lenix_> Pici, is that format wrong or fine ?
[16:31] <Xavura> Can anyone recommend a good FTP client for Ubuntu
[16:31] <soundray> Gothfunc_: would fixing the uid and umask through the mount options solve it?
[16:31] <vasily> hiptibecubic: my sound works, the USB microphone does not work
[16:31] <Slart> !info gftp | Xavura
[16:31] <Xavura> One that isn't called FIlezilla or FireFTP
[16:31] <Xavura> Is it in the repositories?
[16:31] <Gothfunc_> soundray: i believe cifs extensions disables umask etc.
[16:31] <NHH> BlackCow_: if you just want to test it you can install the xfce packages without removing the gnome ones
[16:31] <frostburn> anyone know why snmp is only responding to the system mib but not ucd,hr,if?
[16:32] <Slart> BlackCow_: nope.. just uninstalling wont remove configurations.. unless you use the --purge option (or the "completely remove" thingy in synaptic)
[16:32] <Pici> lenix_: I'm not sure if it matters, but the (working) credentials file that I use here is in the username=myusername  <next line> password=mypassword
[16:32] <Gothfunc_> soundray: i can change the permission of the mount point, which seems to work, but it changes back after a seemingly random amount of time
[16:32] <lenix_> mm, could it be the equal signs that's causing all the trouble ?
[16:32] <Gothfunc_> soundray: oddly:s
[16:32] <Xavura> BlackCow: I installed Kubuntu on the disc then installed Ubuntu on top of that and then removed Kubuntu and that was fine :D
[16:32] <lenix_> guess I should try
[16:32] <Dr_willis> Gothfunc_,  im suprised it works at all that way.. one normally does not change mount point permissions like that.
[16:32] <BlackCow_> ok so I would just do "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" and then boot into xfce and do "sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop" ?
[16:33] <vasily> who can help me to make USB mic working?
