[00:00] <eseven73> ive seen some channels like #Peru with 10,000 users on the larger networks
[00:00] <oCean_> chrome_: welcome to ubuntu! Most people are just idling or afk
[00:00] <remoteCTRL> carlos_: no; pick kde on your login screen and make it your default desktop there
[00:00] <chrome_> you had KDE, and after a reboot you got gnome
[00:01] <amadeus> what do I need to do, I cant uninstall Packages in ubuntu hardy?
[00:01] <carlos_> remoteCTLR thats simple? hahahaha it looks i want easy help like in windows right :D
[00:01] <remoteCTRL> toni_m: worked?
[00:01] <toni_m> remoteCTRL: Thanks you are number one... thanks alot m8
[00:01] <toni_m> yes it worked and thanks alot alot alot.
[00:01] <remoteCTRL> carlos_: even easier:)
[00:01] <chrome_> ubuntu should be easier than windows
[00:01] <remoteCTRL> toni_m: glad to help:)
[00:01] <rixtr66> could someone explain to me how to put a new channel in xchat?
[00:01] <chrome_> that's our goal
[00:01] <carlos_> remoteCTLR oh thanks well let me restart again thanks
[00:01] <toni_m> remoteCTRL: glad to get help from you :) bye
[00:02] <remoteCTRL> carlos_: np
[00:03] <oCean_> rixtr66: what is it that you want to do? Join another channel?
[00:03] <rixtr66> well yes!
[00:03] <jaggedsphere> what software would I get  if I wanted my local computers to download all updates off of one of my other local machines?
[00:03] <chrome_> there's about 3 questions per minute
[00:03] <b419kid> graingert: in the remote desktop program does host mean the ip?
[00:03] <oCean_> rixtr66: just type "/join #nameofchannel" for example "/join "ubuntu-offtopic"
[00:03] <odder> jaggedsphere: you won't need much software, that could be done through apt, I think
[00:04] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: you mean you want to set up an own repository or smething like microsoft sus?
[00:04] <jaggedsphere> I think so...\
[00:04] <Guest5246> remoteCTLR yes, thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[00:04] <MeXTuX> I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 and when I type lspci -v the system says that my video card is a 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]). My question is: Is it possible to have some desktop effects enabled??
[00:04] <jaggedsphere> just want to cut down on repeated downloads
[00:04] <WebcamWonder> !ati | MeXTuX
[00:04] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: well which of both?:D
[00:05] <remoteCTRL> Guest5246: hehe np dude:)
[00:05] <rixtr66> i know about the /join #channel part,what i want to know is how to put a different server in.sorry i didnt explain better.
[00:05] <BrixSat> apache2-ssl-certificate -days 365 this comand is not working for me :S not found
[00:05] <remoteCTRL> MeXTuX: sure, why not? got the driver installed already?
[00:05] <bluenzo^nix> remoteCTRL: IT WORKED <3 thanks!
[00:05] <ChotaZ> jklock: no sound.
[00:06] <zaccour> do all tv tuners work with Ubuntu? or only certain ones
[00:06] <jklock> Chotaz: No sound period or no sound to your headset
[00:06] <oCean_> bluenzo^nix: Yay!
[00:06] <odder> jaggedsphere: try http://mediakey.dk/~cc/howto-create-your-own-debian-or-ubuntu-package-repository/
[00:06] <ChotaZ> jklock: no sound to my headset
[00:06] <remoteCTRL> BrixSat: yeah they took out that script after version dapper i believe you gotta do it the oldfashioned way with openssl
[00:06] <ChotaZ> jklock: have you read the guide?
[00:06] <remoteCTRL> bluenzo^nix: np
[00:06] <BrixSat> remoteCTRL :|
[00:07] <bluenzo^nix> remote so what exactly happened, did grub add itself to the mbr or something? im not sure how all of this works its confusing lol
[00:07] <remoteCTRL> BrixSat: not too hard its like tree steps or so
[00:07] <RickZilla> Recommend good tutorial for installing themes in ubuntu?
[00:07] <ChotaZ> jklock: sound is coming out on speakers
[00:07] <jklock> Chotaz: yeah I read through most of it
[00:07] <tom__> r
[00:07] <odder> jaggedsphere: or this one: http://www.howtoforge.com/local_debian_ubuntu_mirror
[00:07] <BrixSat> remoteCTRL can you tel wich steps or should i chec apache channel?
[00:07] <remoteCTRL> bluenzo^nix: supergrub disk collects information about the hdds and if it finds something that can bee booted it adds it into a menu
[00:07] <remoteCTRL> that's basically it
[00:07] <ChotaZ> jklock: that part where it says to set everything to PulseAudio but the mixer, I set the mixer to my Nvidia sound card, should I choose the headset?
[00:08] <bluenzo^nix> remoteCTRL: there is only one MBR? for all the HDDs?
[00:08] <remoteCTRL> BrixSat: nope its an ssl question, gimme a sec i think i have some docs flying arroung on that somewhere
[00:08] <oCean_> RickZilla: well, install is easy. Download the theme of your choice, the *.tar.gz. Then, drag this tar.gz on the thememanager (System > Preferences > Appearance)
[00:08] <zaccour> do all tv tuners work with Ubuntu? or only certain ones? i need to upload to justin.tv
[00:08] <jklock> Chotaz: well now you sit in an interesting position. I have taken you as far as I can, and I have given you links to information that should help you solve your problems if you piece everything together.
[00:08] <jklock> Chotaz: Now you have to expirement and play around.
[00:08] <RickZilla> oCean_:  That easy, eh?  I'll give it a try.  Thanks for the help.
[00:09] <remoteCTRL> bluenzo^nix: nope there is an mbr in each hdd, but one hdd has the "active" flag which means on that one grub is located, and so that one is adressed first
[00:09] <kinja-sheep> Does anybody know why USB transfer are terrible slow with large files?
[00:09] <MeXTuX> ehm nop. I haven't installed any driver and wanted to ask because the card is .... (don't know how to say it) embedded in my motherboard (I apologize for my poor english)
[00:09] <ChotaZ> jklock: kk... i'll try it around.
[00:09] <oCean_> RickZilla: alternatively you can click Add (in the Sys > Prefs > Appearance dialog) and browse to the .tar.gz
[00:09] <bluenzo^nix> remoteCTRL: k thanks :)
[00:09] <jklock> Chotaz: I also have to leave work :)
[00:09] <zaccour> do all tv tuners work with Ubuntu? or only certain ones? i need to upload to justin.tv
[00:10] <rixtr66> i want to add the server irc.esper.net to the server list in x chat how do i do that?
[00:10] <^Ocean^> How can i tell my Kernel not too load a Driver on boot ?
[00:10] <jaggedsphere> thanks odder but it looks like what I imagined does not exist...had the idea that a SoHo server would pool the software requirements for all of the systems on the network and serve the files centrally as opposed multiple redundant downloads from the internet
[00:10] <MeXTuX> And wanted to know if it is possible to install ATI driver in order to enable some desktop effects
[00:10] <homercycles> would anyone care to recommend a good program for comparing two directories/sub-directories and showing the differences for Ubuntu? thanks
[00:10] <b419kid> Can i use Remote desktop on ubuntu over the internet?
[00:11] <oCean_> ^Ocean^: first, let me compliment you on the nick. Great! :P Second: it is possible to blacklist modules. See /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[00:11] <remoteCTRL> BrixSat: threre you go: http://www.openssl.org/docs/HOWTO/certificates.txt you can skip the bla bla and directly to the create certificates part
[00:12] <odder> jaggedsphere: you can still reduce those redundant download for a big bit
[00:12] <remoteCTRL> bluenzo^nix: its allright buddy;)
[00:12] <BrixSat> thanks remoteCTRL
[00:12] <^Ocean^> oCean_, ;) Thanks dude
[00:13] <oCean_> homercycles: "diff" can compare directories (command line)
[00:13] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: i know of no explicit software update server, normally you would use a repository for that
[00:13] <remoteCTRL> BrixSat: np
[00:13] <jaggedsphere> I am sure I can odder but it's actually just me and my wife's laptop...
[00:13] <homercycles> oCean_: thanks. sounds obvious :-)
[00:13] <oCean_> homercycles: unix often is!
[00:14] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: then download it twice in gods name:D
[00:14] <jaggedsphere> but that would be the easy way!
[00:14] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: there is another possibility then
[00:14] <homercycles> oCean: don't suppose you know of any good GTK equivalents for the lazy?
[00:14] <odder> b419kid: try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=290055
[00:14] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: if you want the hard wag*g*
[00:15] <odder> ammbitious
[00:15] <b419kid> odder: thanks :)
[00:15] <oCean_> oCean_: no, not offhand.. sorry
[00:15] <homercycles> oCean_: no problems thanks for your help anyway. I'll use diff for now
[00:15] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: still there?
[00:16] <jaggedsphere> yup
[00:16] <odder> b419kid: no prob, just googled it
[00:16] <remoteCTRL> kk
[00:16] <jaggedsphere> ok, so what is the hard way?
[00:16] <Lasivian> Where do *you* put uncompiled sources?
[00:16] <oCean_> homercycles: actually, in the repositories is fldiff and mgdiff - supposedly the graphical way
[00:16] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: you can write yourself a little script to achieve that, i can point you the way what tools to use butfrom there on you are your own... interested?
[00:16] <oCean_> !info fldiff
[00:16] <homercycles> oCean_: thanks. sweek
[00:16] <jaggedsphere> yes sir I am
[00:17] <homercycles> oCean_: thanks. sweet, even
[00:17] <hulkeypoo> join /uclinux
[00:17] <ChotaZ> jklock: tried almost everything, checking and unchecking boxes, no sound coming from the ehadset
[00:17] <oCean_> !info xxidff | homercycles final option
[00:17] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere:  hehe kk; are you familiar with dpkg? it has a --get-selection and a --set-selection option
[00:17] <jaggedsphere> familiar yes...
[00:18] <b419kid> odder: vnc requires pc to install so its kinda the opposite of what i need
[00:18] <oCean_> homercycles: ok, one more, then I'm done suggesting :P - there is also xxdiff in the repos, which is (sounds promising) "a graphical file and directories comparison and merge tool"
[00:18] <b419kid> odder: thanks a lot though.
[00:19] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: you can put the output into text files, compare the output of both computers after you did the updates on one and then use rsync to get the files from the updated computers /var/apt/cache directory and the install them on the other computer with dpkg --set-selection
[00:19] <homercycles> oCean_: you have been most helpful. thanks very much
[00:19] <jaggedsphere> hmm I see
[00:19] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: if you need help on writing that script ask in #bash
[00:20] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: all clear?:D
[00:20] <jaggedsphere> I'll research this. thanks remoteCTRL
[00:20] <remoteCTRL> jaggedsphere: allways glad to help:)
[00:20] <rixtr66> would someone please help me with adding a new server on xchat??
[00:21] <deutsche99> what is ubuntu?
[00:21] <remoteCTRL> !ubuntu
[00:21] <noaki> hello! is there a possibilty in bash to automatically delete the 4 first letters of all files in a directionary?
[00:21] <deutsche99> !linux
[00:21] <lordlouis> hi people. Does anibody know an application to upload a file to googledocs in a terminal?
[00:21] <remoteCTRL> noaki: please repeat the question in #bash
[00:22] <Esvandiary> noaki: you may get better help in #bash for that
[00:22] <noaki> ok thanks :)
[00:22] <Esvandiary> darn, too slow :P
[00:22] <deutsche99> !kernel
[00:22] <zaccour> do all tv tuners work with Ubuntu? or only certain ones? i need to upload to justin.tv
[00:22] <remoteCTRL> ok next comes !compile*g*
[00:22] <remoteCTRL> zaccour: see the ubuntu hardware compatibility list for that pleas
[00:23] <remoteCTRL> gimme a sec for the link
[00:23] <puff> I'm trying to mount a fedora core LVM partition under an ubuntu live CD.  Mount wants a filesystem type but parted /dev/sda ust has a blank in the "File system" column.
[00:23] <zaccour> ok
[00:23] <remoteCTRL> zaccour: http://www.ubuntuhcl.org/
[00:23] <zaccour> remoteCTRL, thanks
[00:24] <remoteCTRL> zaccour: np
[00:24] <puff> Anyone?
[00:24] <darthv3gan> hmm. what's the best Windows Live Messenger/MSN client for Ubuntu? I know there's pigeon
[00:24] <ChotaZ> amsn
[00:24] <ChotaZ> or emesene
[00:24] <remoteCTRL> puff: is that fedora volume an lvm volume?
[00:24] <ChotaZ> Can anyone help me getting my microphone to work?
[00:24] <darthv3gan> i tried emesene, it was better than pigeon. hows amsn?
[00:24] <Extend> puff : do u kow what is the file system type of this partition?
[00:25] <ChotaZ> emesene wont let you get or send files to Windows Live Messenger
[00:25] <ChotaZ> so I use aMSN
[00:25] <puff> remoteCTRL: I believe so.l
[00:25] <Lamo> which channel for jaunty support?
[00:25] <remoteCTRL> puff ok in that case sudo apt-get install lvm2
[00:25] <remoteCTRL> then execute the following commands subsequently:
[00:25] <Esvandiary> Lamo: #ubuntu+1 i believe
[00:25] <darthv3gan> hm. aMSN have mic support?
[00:26] <Lamo> Esvandiary, thanks
[00:26] <startkeylogger> startkeylogger
[00:26] <Extend> darthv3gan : if u want a mic support go for sip-communicator.org
[00:26] <Extend> download the .deb file
[00:26] <puff> remoteCTRL: I see sda and sdb.  sda has a 107 MB ext3 boot partition and an 80GB partition that has a blank "File System" column and "lvm" under the flags column.
[00:27] <puff> remoteCTRL: sdb has a single 40GB ext3 boot partition, I presume that's the windows partition on this thing.
[00:27] <remoteCTRL> puff: sudo pvscan sudo vgscanudo vgchange -a y sudo lvscan
[00:27] <remoteCTRL> puff: if it is an ext3 partition i seriously doubt that as windos would be running on an ntfs partition
[00:28] <ward-> i have a few scripts, they work fine in a terminal with sude, but when i make a cron job they do not work anymore :(
[00:28] <puff> Oh, good point.  Hm.
[00:28] <ward-> what can be the problem?
[00:28] <sparky1492> Does anyone have a good site or two that has some up to date installation info and config of netatalk?
[00:28] <remoteCTRL> puff:  let me put this in one working command for you, sec:
[00:28] <puff> Ijust did the pvscan...
[00:29] <remoteCTRL> puff: sudo apt-get install lvm2 && sudo pvscan && sudo vgscan && sudo vgchange -a y && sudo lvscan
[00:29] <remoteCTRL> puff: ah! ok i had a syntax error in the above line, i hope you noticed
[00:29] <puff> The y?
[00:29] <remoteCTRL> no the vgscanudo
[00:29] <ChotaZ> Anyone here uses TEAMSPEAK?
[00:30] <martin3562346> did u get it to work?
[00:30] <remoteCTRL> puff:  supposed to say vgscan sudo..
[00:30] <martin3562346> i tried..
[00:30] <remoteCTRL> chattr: yepp
[00:30] <remoteCTRL> ChotaZ: yepp
[00:30] <puff> vgscan sudo?
[00:30] <remoteCTRL> puff: sudo vgscan && sudo vgchange -a y && sudo lvscan
[00:31] <remoteCTRL> hehehe
[00:31] <ChotaZ> remoteCTRL: what do to if I can have mplayer outputting to my headset and I want teamspeak t  work the same way?
[00:31] <Lasivian> is there any gui wifi program for gnome?
[00:31] <ward-> i have a few scripts, they work fine in a terminal with sude, but when i make a cron job they do not work anymore :( what can be the problem, please?
[00:31] <puff> Lasivian: Yes.
[00:31] <eseven73> im using xubuntu, but would like to install Gnome on another user (same computer of course) can i do that without ruining the xubuntu install for my main user? Basically I want User 1 with Xubuntu, user 2 with Ubuntu.
[00:31] <ChotaZ> remoteCTRL: but TS will only output to speakers and people cant hear me talking to the headset's mic
[00:31] <Pyrus> Is anyone having issues with the update to openjdk?
[00:31] <Lasivian> puff: what is it please? :)
[00:31] <remoteCTRL> ChotaZ: ther is a configuration dialog in the settings menu, you need to pick your headset as output medium there, mostly that is /dev/dsp1
[00:31] <ward-> eseven73, you can choose at your loginscreen what you want to use
[00:32] <puff> Lasivian: Gnone Network Manager.
[00:32] <remoteCTRL> puff: have you done those?
[00:32] <ward-> eseven73, under sessions i believe
[00:32] <eseven73> ward-: hmm how would that work with fast user switching though?
[00:32] <ChotaZ> remoteCTRL: thanks a lot it works now
[00:32] <eseven73> ward-: using the user switcher desklet in Xubuntu
[00:32] <remoteCTRL> ChotaZ: np:)
[00:32] <danie> dma......
[00:32] <danie> 음
[00:33] <ward-> eseven73, window manager will remain probably, is this just to test gnome?
[00:33] <ward-> eseven73, i don't know i never tried
[00:33] <eseven73> ward-: i guess i could always do replace --metacity
[00:33] <puff> remoteCTRL:Yes... got some results that look like errors.
[00:33] <amadeus> Hello, I can no longer remove wine completely with apt-get remove wine, it only removes about 98 kb, what do I need to do?
[00:33] <remoteCTRL> puff: apste them to www.nopaste.org please
[00:33] <Lasivian> puff: ahh, I was meaning something a little more like netstumbler
[00:33] <ward-> eseven73, if this is just to test gnome, you can do it simpler
[00:34] <tvih-> righto. any ideas why gdm/gnome won't start up properly with my new display driver, even though gdm itself starts fine?
[00:34] <bluenzo^nix> pastebin.com <3
[00:34] <ward-> eseven73, without extra user
[00:34] <valentin__> is ist possible to write to a dialoge in gnome using a script?
[00:34] <grigora> could someone tell me the difference between libboost-python-dev and libboost-python1.34.1?
[00:34] <puff> remoteCTRL: Working on it...
[00:34] <remoteCTRL> Lasivian: there are command line tools for that: iwslist -scan and iwconfig
[00:34] <remoteCTRL> puff: kk
[00:34] <ward-> i have a few scripts, they work fine in a terminal with sude, but when i make a cron job they do not work anymore :( what can be the problem, please?
[00:34] <eseven73> ward-: well its not really  to test gnome, its more of a case of liking both window environments and cant choose between the two :D
[00:34] <silvertip257> I'm writing a shell script (bash is my shell) that is to change directory before its termination (and it does with embedded pwd to debug), but it does not remain at that location.  I realize it is a problem with my script running in a subshell, but I'm SSH-ing to the box and when my script runs with either 'source' or the 'dot operator' (. ./myscript) my SSH session is terminated.  Can anyone offer advice on how to complete this without
[00:34] <silvertip257>  terminating my SSH session?
[00:35] <ward-> eseven73, then wouldnt it be easy if you could just choose in your loginscreen what to start?
[00:35] <bluenzo^nix> Hey, I have a printer, are there any drivers i can get for it? or no :(
[00:35] <ChotaZ> remoteCTRL: I set the output to my headset has you said and I can hear people through the headset but still cant talk to them, where should i look for a minimized liner, ALSA Mixer or PA or Voluecontroller?
[00:35] <eseven73> ward-: normally yes, but im using fast user switching widget in Xubuntu
[00:35] <remoteCTRL> silvertip257: please ask your question in #bash
[00:35] <gartral> how do i build an install package from source?
[00:36] <silvertip257> remoteCTRL, will do
[00:36] <remoteCTRL> ChotaZ: best in both of them
[00:36] <eseven73> !compile | gartral
[00:36] <Orestis_G> Hey guys, could you give a hand with an X server issue, from an HDD installation of an xbmc live CD?
[00:36] <ward-> eseven73, i dont think that mathers, but im not sure
[00:36] <remoteCTRL> ChotaZ: and you might also wanna set the microphone device in the settings dialog of ts
[00:37] <remoteCTRL> Orestis_G: what is an xbmc?
[00:37] <valentin__> can i open the gnome-keyring in console?
[00:37] <ward-> eseven73, because otehr users can also choose what they want to use at the loginscreen
[00:37] <ward-> eseven73, so there's no reason for it not to work if you switch
[00:37] <ChotaZ> remotectrl: it works now, thanks again, finally I'm done with this ^
[00:37] <ward-> but again im not sure
[00:37] <ward-> never tested
[00:37] <remoteCTRL> ChotaZ: np:)
[00:37] <Orestis_G> basically it's a HTPC front-end, however the live CD is based on ubuntu...anyway, my problem is X-server related
[00:37] <eseven73> ward-: yes true when not using a fast user switching widget
[00:38] <remoteCTRL> Orestis_G: so what is it?
[00:38] <puff> remoteCTRL: http://nopaste.com/p/aT3AZoAEob
[00:38] <ward-> eseven73, i was explaining why it should work with your funky widget
[00:38] <Orestis_G> To be precise, the live CD boots to a graphical environment with DRI, automatically identifying the radeon driver as the one to be used (the card is a 9250).
[00:38] <eseven73> ward-: ok well ill experiment a bit and report back in about 30mins to an hour (The servers are very congested due to Jaunty beta release last night)
[00:39] <ward-> eseven73, test this on a virtual machine preferrably
[00:39] <ward-> eseven73, jsut in case something goes wrong
[00:39] <babylonsfury> hey guys, does anyone know what package controls the usb controller?
[00:39] <Orestis_G> However, when I install to the disk, although the card is again detected, I have no X unless I disable DRI
[00:39] <eseven73> good idea
[00:39] <J_Litewski> how can I check to see what video card i have?
[00:39] <ja660k> can anyone help me with my java compiler?
[00:39] <gartral> eseven73: will this produce a .deb file?
[00:39] <thebitguru> Hi, I am trying to setup my ubuntu machine to display on a Mitsubishi WS-55513.  Normal console shows up OK, but when I start x it display a black screen.  I took the modeline from the mythtv site, which I am assuming worked for at least one other person. Can someone please help me get this to work?
[00:39] <danc3> J_Litewski: open the box and look?
[00:39] <J_Litewski> it's a laptop
[00:39] <ward-> eseven73, virtualbox is pretty good and very straightforward for these tests
[00:39] <ward-> eseven73, good luck
[00:39] <danc3> J_Litewski: lspci
[00:39] <eseven73> yea im pretty good with vbox
[00:40] <tvih-> was there a way to open xterm to the first x display? from console? when running nothing but the Xorg itself on the graphical side.
[00:40] <ward-> eseven73, also change your package source :p
[00:40] <remoteCTRL> puff: sudo modprobe dm_mod then the whole commandline again: sudo pvscan && sudo vgscan && sudo vgchange -a y && sudo lvscan
[00:40] <Orestis_G> drmopendevice returns -1 in both cases (livecd and hdd installation), however when I run the live CD it then succeeds using the BUS ID of the device, while when running from the hdd, the Xserver segfaults
[00:40] <puff> ward-: I don't know enough to help you wtih cron, but I do know that user identity and permissions are kinda tricky with cron.
[00:41] <remoteCTRL> Orestis_G: i am not sure if i can help you on that as i adont even know what dri is...:-/
[00:41] <grigora> could someone tell me the difference between libboost-python-dev and libboost-python1.34.1?
[00:41] <Orestis_G> Direct Rendering Infrastructure....GLX etc
[00:41] <Huufarted> What's the easiest way to remove a KDE install and go back to Pure Gnome?
[00:41] <Orestis_G> open gl acceleration
[00:41] <puff> remoteCTRL:  that worked a lot better:  http://nopaste.com/p/avxj8fSGT
[00:41] <ward-> puff, yes i was thinkign in that direction too but i'm not good at all at permissions stuff
[00:41] <eseven73> gartral:  try this http://blog.mypapit.net/2006/02/create-you-own-debianubuntu-deb-package.html
[00:42] <majnoon> moo
[00:42] <bazhang> !puregnome > Huufarted
[00:42] <majnoon> wrong window :(
[00:42] <bazhang> majnoon, stop that
[00:42] <remoteCTRL> grigora: a -dev file is a development file, meaning if you wanna code something for it you will need this or also if cyou wanna compile something that needs this
[00:42] <Huufarted> bazhang, ty
[00:42] <majnoon> wrong window :(
[00:42] <Fleisch> what is with is authorization stuff everytime i touch something
[00:42] <Fleisch> how do i turn it off
[00:43] <thebitguru> anyone?
[00:43] <Huufarted> bazhang, that mentions installing ubuntu-desktop.  Is that needed gnome is already there or is that just used to reinstall the startup screen, etc?
[00:43] <puff> ward-: I did some stuff with cron about six months ago and had some mysterious problems that turned out to be because of something counterintuitive about what user the cron job ran as, etc.  A friend helped me sort it out but I can't find it in my notes, sorry.
[00:43] <remoteCTRL> puff: there you go, now you can mount these 5 harddisks one after the other by sudo mount /dev/mapper/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /mnt
[00:43] <bazhang> Huufarted, not to my knowledge no, that is just a meta-package
[00:43] <puff> remoteCTRL: Okay, so that seemed to go well, so<loses>
[00:43] <ubuntu_> sup rururs
[00:43] <ward-> puff, it should be ran as root if i understand correctly, since i added the cron job with sudo crontab -e -u root
[00:44] <remoteCTRL> puff: so<loses>?
[00:44] <puff> remoteCTRL: Should I change "/mnt" with each lnie?
[00:44] <Huufarted> bazhang, meta-package?  Does that mean it's just a list of other packages it will attempt to install?
[00:44] <grigora> remoteCTRL: thanks, so what's the other one for? considering boost is a library and the only reason you would install it is to use it (link against it, etc).
[00:44] <puff> remoteCTRL: When you're typing a question and before you get done somebody says the answer.
[00:44] <puff> remoteCTRL: You lose the race :-)
[00:44] <bazhang> Huufarted, it just pulls in all of what you need for ubuntu desktop
[00:45] <bazhang> !metapackage
[00:45] <puff> remoteCTRL: Should "/mnt" change for each volume, and if so, any way to figure out what they are/should be?
[00:45] <Huufarted> bazhang, thank you.  :)
[00:45] <tvih-> blah, this plain sucks
[00:45] <alec> Could someone help please.
[00:46] <alec> For some reason my Ctrl-Alt-Backspace will NOT restart X.   Could anyone help?
[00:46] <tvih-> gdm is simply stuck at a black screen and the loading-cursor when X starts, and nothing further happens. makes no sense.
[00:46] <oCean_> alec: are you on jaunty?
[00:46] <danc3> alec: log out and back in
[00:46] <alec> Ibex.
[00:47] <alec> I did log out and back in.  no luck.
[00:47] <alec> I've tried a lto of things acutally.
[00:47] <danc3> reboot
[00:47] <alec> reboot doesn't help either.
[00:47] <remoteCTRL> puff: mount is a standard directory for just such a purpose, if you want to mount all of the volumes simultaneously you need to have a directory for each volume you wanna mount so f. ex create some: sudo mkdir /mnt/disk1 && sudo mkdir /mnt/disk2 , etc
[00:47] <oCean_> alec: ok. I know in jaunty the ctrl-alt-backsp feature is disabled.
[00:47] <remoteCTRL> grigora: i am not sure if i understand the question?
[00:47] <tvih-> disabled? why? :o
[00:47] <alec> ah ha. I think maybe I read that somewhere as well. hmm.... I wonfer if this is the case in Ibex. ??
[00:48] <oCean_> alec: "lsb_release -a" to find out
[00:48] <alec> yeh... why would they disable that?  usuability?  But I'm 100% sure that it does NOT work in Ibex.
[00:48] <alec> oCean... trying.
[00:48] <puff> remoteCTRL: Ah, first attempted failed, then I noticed the output from lvscan said /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 instead of /dev/mapper/VolGroup00/LogVol00.  Tried it with /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 and it appears to have worked.
[00:49] <SeViLLa> exit
[00:49] <alec> no LSB modules are available.
[00:49] <BlackCoffee> buenas noches everybody
[00:49] <oCean_> alec: tvih- well, that discussion (as to WHY) goes in #ubuntu+1 channel
[00:49] <alec> oCean... no available?
[00:49] <remoteCTRL> puff: really? awkward, but if you say so its gotta be so:)
[00:49] <BlackCoffee> i've come to annoy with my n00b questions
[00:49] <alec> I'd like to know if it is possible to activate it.
[00:49] <oCean_> alec: use -a
[00:49] <midkniht> doob?
[00:50] <alec> I did eatly what u asked.
[00:50] <alec> lsb_release -a
[00:50] <|PaperTiger|> oCean_: Just to let you know, Kubuntu going really well :) I'm happy! =]
[00:50] <oCean_> alec: I think there is just an other key combination. Ask in "ubuntu+1"
[00:50] <alec> ok.  thanks.
[00:50] <|PaperTiger|> oCean_: Just playing with custom settings now :)
[00:50] <danc3> alec: what exactly is the problem, anyway?  Why do you need to restart X?
[00:50] <oCean_> |PaperTiger|: Good to hear!
[00:50] <devans> Hey guys, I am having a really ODD problem with connecting to a Microsoft VPN via PPTP using any method under Ubuntu Jaunty.  I know Jaunty is in beta, but the odd thing is, I have been connecting fine through Network Manger at my home - I have gone to my parents for the weekend and their setup to the internet is the same and it just fails a look in the logs and it just says pppd hangup..   The network setup is, laptop (vpn client) ---->  adsl wifi router ---->  internet -----> work vpn server.  It is the same at my house and I connect fine, here at my parents no luck.  Any idea what could be going wrong ?
[00:50] <tvih-> kinda sucks. i had to install jaunty kernel to get wlan working, but that meant the old nvidia driver stopped working. then when I got that working, it seems gnome doesn't want to work :(
[00:50] <BlackCoffee> what is a good wysiwyg html editor for ubuntu,kinda like the one that comes with mozilla but that doesn't require to download a whole suite of apps
[00:51] <Aeonis> I'm looking for a program that I don't know how to install.  How can I search for it in terminal?
[00:51] <oCean_> tvih-: also for that: all jaunty issues --> join channel #ubuntu+1
[00:51] <|PaperTiger|> oCean_: Much more fun that Windows is :)
[00:51] <alec> well, I wanted to restart x to test something I changed in a config file and I relzized I couldn't restartx like beofre.
[00:51] <Aeonis> I thought I used a "grep" thing.
[00:51] <remoteCTRL> !jaunty >devans
[00:51] <tritium> Aeonis: apt-cache search <foo>
[00:51] <Aeonis> what's <foo>?
[00:51] <puff> remoteCTRL: Why?
[00:51] <alec>  mean... restart x without entirely restarting machine.
[00:51] <danc3> I see
[00:51] <puff> remoteCTRL: I'm a little bit curious about what this all means...
[00:51] <lstarnes> Aeonis: apt-cache search thing-to-search-for
[00:51] <devans> remoteCTRL, Why the hell would you send me that ? I am running Jaunty.  I know exactly what it is.  That is in no way relevant to my question ?
[00:51] <remoteCTRL> Aeonis: know the name of the app? sudo apt-cache search <app>
[00:52] <Aeonis> Gotcha remoteCTRL.  Thank you guys!  I may need you again...I have to try to remember how to install...
[00:52] <oCean_> devans: because the factoid tells you to join #ubuntu+1 channel
[00:52] <BlackCoffee> what is a good wysiwyg html editor for ubuntu,kinda like the one that comes with mozilla but that doesn't require to download a whole suite of apps
[00:52] <Aeonis> apt-get install <app>
[00:52] <tritium> devans: calm down
[00:52] <Zalewa> Anyone knows how to change these fonts: http://zalewa.dyndns.org/robert/winecfg.jpg ? I've done a lot of searching and that's what I found so far: 1. Increasing font DPI isn't a good solution. The text looks bad. 2. Copying multiple and various font files (including these from WinXP installation) into ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/fonts doesn't help. 3. Fonts go bad like that when I use Wine compiled from sourcecode. If I install Wine from aptitude fonts are ok.
[00:52] <lstarnes> Aeonis: sudo apt-get install package-name
[00:52] <remoteCTRL> devans: did you read the part with "please ask your jaunty questions in the hjaunty channel? that would be #ubuntu+1
[00:53] <devans> Sorry, I am stressed out.  I am "on-call" tonight and I need it working.
[00:53] <danc3> BlackCoffee: quanta or bluefish
[00:53] <tritium> devans: no excuses, please.  Just treat others with respect.
[00:53] <BlackCoffee> thank you thank you
[00:53] <remoteCTRL> puff: what specifically?
[00:53] <BlackCoffee> will check those out
[00:53] <alec> this is a great channel.  I just hope it's useful FOR ME.
[00:53] <puff> remoteCTRL: Hm, LogVol3 and LogVol4 are both go-rwx and appear to contain CacheItems, CellItems, and subdirectories D1..D14.
[00:54] <Aeonis> alec:  I come here anytime I have a problem and it's always solved.
[00:54] <puff> remoteCTRL: Well, what was all that I just did?   What does it mean?
[00:54] <puff> remoteCTRL: I hate doing things without understanding them :-)
[00:54] <remoteCTRL> tritium: ya thanks for taking sides dude, but io am not that easily offended;)
[00:54] <melx> I'm trying to find the proper proceedure and package to install the wifi drivers for the aspire 5570z and 8.10. Can anyone point me in the right direction.
[00:54] <Aeonis> puff: I have that same problem...everything :(
[00:54] <hanasaki> what will show all the usb ports and hubs?
[00:54] <remoteCTRL> puff: ok read in wikipedia what lvm2 is that should explain it;)
[00:54] <tritium> remoteCTRL: I'm not.
[00:54] <remoteCTRL> !lvm2
[00:55] <remoteCTRL> !lvm
[00:55] <Here4TheGear> Hi, I'm trying to get my wireless up, I'm on an HP with UBUNTU 64 (amd64) with atheros AR5009 and I'm using the instructions here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=816780&highlight=atheros+amd64 I'm able to do everything that is noted there, however, Never (before doing those steps or after), have I seen any wireless card in system->administration->hardware drivers ::: can anyone help me with this?
[00:56] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: you won't find it there
[00:56] <BrixSat> when i start coovachilli i get this error
[00:56] <BrixSat> .: 9: Can't open /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
[00:56] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: what is the problem actually?
[00:56] <puff> remoteCTRL: Wikipedia has almost nothing about lvm2 in the lvm article.
[00:57] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL well, I can't figure out how to configure my wireless to actually work. Right now, I'm tethered to a wire.
[00:57] <remoteCTRL> puff: well the version should not be the big issue, lvm2 is not so substantially different from lvm, so unterstandign lvm would do it
[00:58] <oCean_> BrixSat: how did you install that?
[00:58] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: got the firmware and the kernel module installed already?
[00:58] <niko> Hey, I keep getting permisison denied when trying to  create a forwarding ssh connection, does anyone know how I can find how what is causeing it?
[00:58] <BrixSat> oCean_ configure && make && make install
[00:58] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: I checked out and compiled (and installed) madwifi if that's what you're asking
[00:59] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: that is one part, you also need the firmware for the atheros chip
[00:59] <oCean_> BrixSat: ok, because it is not the LSB style to have the 'init functions' script there
[00:59] <BrixSat> oCean_ so where should they be?
[00:59] <oCean_> BrixSat: It is actually in /lib/lsb/init-functions
[00:59] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: firmware in this case does not mean the software that runs on the chip but means non free driver software
[00:59] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: how do I know where to get it? ALSO of note, this is a dual boot situation (vista on the other partition which came with the puter)..
[01:00] <Orestis_G> Good night,everyone
[01:00] <oCean_> BrixSat: so you may want to try and change that path in the init script, but I'm not sure whether it will work properly
[01:00] <obf213> heylow can somebody help me figure out with my ssh tunneling keeps timing out?
[01:00] <BrixSat> oCean_ and now where is the Can't open /etc/sysconfig/network
[01:00] <obf213> with nautilus
[01:00] <obf213> it used to work. all of a sudden it stopped
[01:02] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: gimme a sec on that firmware thing and errr what is with vista?
[01:02] <Aeonis> anyone know hwere I can get SQLite developer's package?
[01:02] <Aeonis> I can't seem to find one that is specific to the Developer's package.
[01:03] <oCean_> BrixSat: well, that is in several files. (like /etc/network/interfaces)
[01:03] <Jean_> join #ubuntu-br
[01:03] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: I didn't want to unintall it just yet, until I am able to get Ubuntu to run wirelessly.
[01:03] <cehr> hi there. some time after booting up this machine it will just not want to open any programs (they just hang), causing me to have to restart gdm and restart that way since it won't log out or in.  all existing programs appear to work fine after this happens, it only applies to new programs.  I haven't found any rhyme or reason to this... it just happens after some time.  I'm running hardy under a p4 2.8ghz.  does anybody know what's goin
[01:03] <cehr> g on here?
[01:05] <midkniht> straight g's
[01:06] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTR: this is my third computer that I've tried to get any linux to run wirelessly on, and I've never been able to get it to work. This is the first one that I got Atheros because I had read that Atheros wireless cards actually are able to be used with most linux distros. :)
[01:06] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: basically they are! if i just could find my docs on atheros cards...

[01:07] <dreamy> opss so sorry
[01:07] <BlackCoffee> hey stop that!
[01:07] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: thank you so much for checking into this for me too. I want to get off of windows sooo bad..
[01:07] <dreamy> sorry
[01:07] <BOE|Zack> Hey, I was wondering if its possible for me to edit/create/delete files on my windows formated drive (already mounted)?
[01:07] <midkniht> nice
[01:08] <LjL> BOE|Zack: yes it is
[01:08] <dreamy> sorry i had a stuck key
[01:08] <dreamy> im very sorry
[01:08] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: what does lsmod | grep ath_pci return?
[01:08] <dreamy> can you read my messages?
[01:08] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: ya no problem dude i am just not sure yet if i can really help you, lets see
[01:08] <BOE|Zack> LjL, how exactly? Can you point me to a tutorial or something?
[01:09] <LjL> BOE|Zack: uh, just like any other files
[01:09] <remoteCTRL> dreamy: yes we can
[01:09] <LjL> dreamy: yes
[01:09] <Royall> #ubuntu, in your professional opinion, would you recommend I upgrade to Jaunty beta?
[01:09] <dreamy> ok.. sorry agayn
[01:09] <LjL> Royall: no
[01:09] <remoteCTRL> BOE|Zack: sure it is
[01:09] <Royall> I already installed/tried installing alpha, and it thrashed my system
[01:09] <LjL> Royall: ah, if you're already on alpha...
[01:09] <Royall> I had to do a full reinstall of 8.10
[01:10] <nonewmsgs> pidgin started seg faulted a day or two ago.  should i just try the previous kernal?
[01:10] <Royall> I'm on 8.10 now
[01:10] <LjL> Royall: then keep it. Jaunty is not out and may break at ANY time.
[01:10] <LjL> Royall: jaunty should ONLY be used on a test system.
[01:10] <BOE|Zack> LjL, remoteCTRL: right now it doesn't let me the options are grey'd out.
[01:10] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL:  ath_pci 250176  0 :::: wlan 254240  1 ath_pci :::   ath_hal 333200  1 ath_pci
[01:10] <Royall> Thanks :3
[01:10] <BrixSat> thanks oCean_
[01:10] <LjL> BOE|Zack: it might have mounted it read-only if it's an NTFS partition and you didn't unmount it properly last time you used windows (for example you powered off the computer without shutting down=)
[01:11] <oCean_> BOE|Zack: For write access, you also might want to use "ntfs-3g" as filesystem type
[01:11] <remoteCTRL> BOE|Zack: then you have it probably mounted a s root, you can either open it with a filebrowser with sudo rights ie. sudo nautilus, or you add the user option to the mount command/fstab entry
[01:11] <BOE|Zack> LjL, okay so restart in my messed up windows and let it Login / Logoff a couple times before restarting?
[01:11] <oCean_> !ntfs > BOE|Zack
[01:12] <LjL> BOE|Zack: just one time.
[01:12] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: ok kernel modules are loaded, does ifconfig return anything with ath0 in it?
[01:12] <BOE|Zack> oCean_, it is ntfs-3g
[01:12] <melx> which package has the Atheros 5xxx driver in it compatible with 8.10?
[01:12] <Elone> hi how do i know what is the problem ?  sometimes my laptop won't wake up after suspend on RAM.
[01:12] <oCean_> BOE|Zack: ok sorry, missed that part
[01:13] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: yes it does return inet bcast and mask information
[01:13] <BOE|Zack> remoteCTRL, with sudo: rm: cannot remove `/media/hdmain/Program Files/Lavasoft': Read-only file system
[01:13] <LjL> BOE|Zack: what does "mount | grep hdmain" say?
[01:13] <melx> BOE|Zack: you don't have it mounted with write permissions
[01:13] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: so that means it is up and running bzut has no ip address?
[01:14] <remoteCTRL> BOE|Zack: in that case you would like to remount it with the -o rw option
[01:14] <BOE|Zack> /dev/sda1 on /media/hdmain type fuseblk (ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other,default_permissions,blksize=4096)
[01:14] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: wait... no.. sorry, it's does not... I read eth0 not ath
[01:14] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: humm i see
[01:14] <alec> BTW...by default CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE is activated by default in Ibex.
[01:15] <gigabites2> Is there a way to define xorg.conf and override the automatic configuration?
[01:15] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: stupid question; does your computer have a hardware switch for the wireless card, and is it turned on?
[01:15] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL:  and I did :::  ifconfig | grep "ath"  :::: after just to be sure my eyes didn't miss anything, nothing returned
[01:15] <Serval> When I try to use the live CD for Ubuntu 9.04, It's starts off in a terminal, and typing in "startx" gives an error, No screen found
[01:15] <gigabites2> Here4TheGear: Try ifconfig -a
[01:15] <remoteCTRL> Serval: please tell that to #ubuntu+1 which is the help channel for jaunty
[01:15] <oCean_> Serval: for jaunty issues/discussions, please join #ubuntu+1
[01:16] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: obviously that is not a stupid question :) do you mean, A button? There is a button, I pressed it, but it doesn't do anything... just glows red (it should be blue)
[01:16] <oCean_> BOE|Zack: the output states that it is mounted 'ro', which is readonly
[01:16] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: did you press that before or after booting?
[01:16] <Here4TheGear> gigabites2: still no joy there,
[01:16] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: if after try and reboot
[01:16] <BOE|Zack> /dev/sda1	/media/hdmain	ntfs-3g	ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=000 0 0 -TO-> /dev/sda1	/media/hdmain	ntfs-3g	auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=000 0 0
[01:17] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: sometimes it won't work if it isn't being booted with the card enabled...
[01:17] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: yes, after... Should I press again and reboot, or just reboot
[01:17] <puff> remoteCTRL: I get the general idea of LVM, I'm more wondering about what did I just do?
[01:17] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: well press it to a state where you would consider it enabled
[01:17] <puff> remoteCTRL: E.g. why did you comment "awkward"?
[01:17] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: and should I unplug the wired one as well?
[01:18] <puff> remoteCTRL: according to the man pages, that was 1) scan physical devices that LVM supports (and thus might contain LVM volumes).
[01:18] <yoshimit> Hi there! I'm using ubuntu 8.04 on VMWare. How to make the interface name fixed (as eth0 ou eth1), please? every time that I restart the VM I got a new device number... thank you.
[01:18] <remoteCTRL> puff: well as you read volumes are inside of volumegroups and both of them are being managed by vg* or lv* commands
[01:19] <puff> 2) scan all disks for volume groups and rebuild caches.
[01:19] <remoteCTRL> puff: so first you enabled the lvm, then you scanned for groups, ghen you activated the groups then you scanned vor volumes inside the groups and then you mounted the volumes so that they got accessible
[01:19] <puff> So, if vgscan scans all disks, why did I do lvscan?
[01:19] <puff> Er, So, if vgscan scans all disks, why did I do pvscan?
[01:20] <remoteCTRL> puff: usually the path is /dev/mapper/<vg-name> i never saw /dev/<vg-name>/<vg-name> before
[01:20] <puff> remoteCTRL: Okay, thanks, that clarifies it a bit.
[01:20] <puff> remoteCTRL: This is some whacked-in-the-head organzational fedoracore5 install.
[01:21] <FernandoF> hello
[01:21] <remoteCTRL> puff: actually not, this is being done by ubuntu as far as i understand this
[01:21] <tvih-> what's a nice html editor that's available from the repositories these days. bluefish?
[01:21] <puff> remoteCTRL: Well the LVM stuff was set up as part of this fedoracore install.
[01:21] <FernandoF> I have a less than 10 seconds error session I can not solve with forums
[01:21] <FernandoF> can someone help me please
[01:21] <kalidar> hey guys ok so i got enemy terratory instaled on my kde 4.1 on ubuntu 8.10 intell duo core, i have to use metacity --replace everytime i want to play the game but even still i cannot hear any sound
 i was wondreing if perhaps someone could help me make sound work
[01:21] <puff> remoteCTRL: So, question... my purpose in doing all this is that we're running a complex simulation, many java programs running on about 10 different boxes, talking to each other.
[01:21] <FernandoF> error log is http://paste.ubuntu.com/139278/
[01:21] <kalidar> i was wondering how ifound out where my sound is so i can echo it maby that mite work
[01:22] <puff> remoteCTRL: Trouble is, the boxes are all running this organizational installt that expects to have various file servers, kerberos servers, etc, in the environment.
[01:22] <remoteCTRL> puff: you can do that on ubuntu also, and it is a good idea to do, yet still the available volume groups are being managed by ubuntu now, so the path structure should be consistent with ubuntu's
[01:22] <kalidar> alidar> hey guys ok so i got enemy terratory instaled on my kde 4.1 on ubuntu 8.10 intell duo core, i have to use metacity --replace everytime i want to play the game but even still i cannot hear any sound
 i was wondreing if perhaps someone could help me make sound work
[01:22] <yoshimit> FernandoF: are you using ldap for auth ?
[01:22] <puff> Ah, I see. Odd.
[01:22] <remoteCTRL> puff: err... ok?
[01:23] <puff> remoteCTRL: On monday we have to load these into a truck and drive a couple hundred miles to a place where we're not allowed to connect to the network, plug them all togehter on their own little not-connected-to-the-outside-world network and demo this simulation.
[01:23] <FernandoF> yoshimit: i am typing in a machine and trying to get back my main machine... but what was your point...sorry i am not that used with all this terms
[01:23] <andrew__> how would I go about connecting to a password protected windows share with the 'connect to server' link under 'places'?
[01:23] <andrew__> there's no password field
[01:24] <puff> We're pretty sure the specialized stuff on the fedoracore boxes won't cope, so we're figuring to boot them all under ubuntu live CDs.
[01:24] <puff> remoteCTRL: Make sense?
[01:24] <remoteCTRL> puff: so far so good, what's the problem now?
[01:24] <FernandoF> yoshimit:  I think for auth i am using .ICEauthority
[01:24] <mj0vy> Hey folks, isn't there any director download link for Ubuntu 8.10 dvd image? I see only torrents for 8.10 and direct dvd image for 8.04...
[01:24] <FernandoF> yoshimit:  could it be?
[01:24] <puff> remoteCTRL: Hopefully no problem.  I wanted to bounce it off you and see if you spotted any fatal flaws... :-).
[01:24] <remoteCTRL> puff: ya i think i get the idea but i still don't get the problem about that?
[01:24] <yoshimit> FernandoF: well, by your log error is a different error that I got last night... so I started to google it... sorry
[01:24] <puff> remoteCTRL: I think we'll have to build a custom live CD with the lvm2 tools and java on it.
[01:25] <remoteCTRL> puff: well that depends on the kerberos etc stuff, usually that is non trivial
[01:25] <hacker07> can you talk in this channel if you use ubuntu 9.04 beta....sorry if this a totaly dumb question and makes no sense
[01:25] <hacker07> im just bored
[01:25] <remoteCTRL> ah! you are running that simulations from live cds?
[01:25] <puff> remoteCTRL: Right, so that's why I'm thinking to avoid it entirely by just booting under ubuntu liveCD, mount the LVM partitions simply as data disks, and run the simulatiosn off them.
[01:25] <yoshimit> FernandoF: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/300028
[01:25] <remoteCTRL> hacker07: have a try in ubuntu+1 or in #ubuntu-offtopic;)
[01:26] <yoshimit> FernandoF: boa sorte!
[01:26] <remoteCTRL> puff: why would you do that?
[01:26] <puff> remoteCTRL: Which part?
[01:26] <remoteCTRL> puff: wha won't you boot the native systems?
[01:26] <puff> remoteCTRL: Because the native systems won't become fully functional unless we do some major surgery to cut out kerberos, etc.
[01:27] <FernandoF> yoshimit: thx ... ihope i will not be back :)
[01:27] <puff> remoteCTRL: I'm hoping it'll be simpler just to side-step all of that by running it under ubuntu.
[01:27] <remoteCTRL> puff: ah there we go:D
[01:27] <FernandoF> yoshimit: where r u from?
[01:27] <Aeonis> anyone familiar with "metasploit"?
[01:27] <puff> I'ma ctually in favor of adding an ubuntu partition, but my coworkers think that'll be messier...
[01:27] <remoteCTRL> puff: if you just need to access the data and want to avoid the configuration that involvers kerberos, of course then also some ldap database, etc, sure, not a bad idea
[01:28] <yoshimit> FernandoF: DF
[01:28] <macman> .. i was thinking .. i see a lot of windows 98 machines at swap meets and stuff .. i can turn them into linux file servers etc .. ? anyone else doing this ?
[01:28] <puff> remoteCTRL: okay, cool... I'm just looking for a reality check...
[01:28] <remoteCTRL> puff: well if you can add a partition it is allway better to do so, as a live system has its limitations, not only what concerns speed...
[01:29] <yoshimit> FernandoF: this one seems to have a solution: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase-workspace/+bug/287488
[01:29] <puff> remoteCTRL:  How hairy do you think adding an ubuntu partition would be?  It's already multiboot windows/fedoracore5.
[01:29] <Barridus> hi all, is there a place that archives no-longer available kernel .deb's?  such as some of the jaunty beta ones that are no longer on the repository?
[01:29] <chaorain> I have a Dell XPS M1730 laptop. It has volume controls that work outside of games is there a way to get them to work inside games?
[01:29] <remoteCTRL> puff: basically thinkable simple: you can use gedit to shrink the fedora partitions and then you just install ubuntu and that's it
[01:30] <yoshimit> Guys, someone can help with my interface name? Everytime that I restart my virtual machine I got a new ethx name... I want to make it fixed!
[01:30] <Aeonis> anyone familiar with "metasploit"?
[01:30] <baazil1> i just installed Ubuntu, trying to do some terminal work (installing some hardware drivers). I tried su root to do such a thing, it asked me for a password. In no way, shape or form did any part of the installation ask me for a root password. It asked for a user password, which i gave, but that obviously doesnt do anything for root. Is there a default root password? What gives?
[01:30] <Aeonis> !metasploit
[01:31] <Aeonis> !hot dudes
[01:31] <J_Litewski> !kernel
[01:31] <remoteCTRL> baazil1: you need to set one, change to root user by sudo su -
[01:31] <andrew__> installing programs in linux is so much nicer than windows
[01:31] <remoteCTRL> baazil1: and then use the passwd command
[01:32] <mj0vy> It was asked earlier, I'm in ubuntu.com and I don't see any download link for 8.10 dvd image.... it isn't there or am I blind?
[01:32] <remoteCTRL> puff: err i meant gparted not gedit
[01:32] <remoteCTRL> mj0vy: nope only cd
[01:32] <valentin__> Easy question .. how do i get mplayer to play proprietary codecs?
[01:32] <t1ger> !compiz
[01:32] <mj0vy> remoteCTRL: Thanks!
[01:33] <remoteCTRL> valentin__: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:33] <KillerOrca> I am trying to set wake on lan on my machine, but I don't know if it is supportted on my motherboard, does anyone know a good way to look up that information?
[01:33] <iceroot> KillerOrca: google
[01:34] <iceroot> KillerOrca: google, manual, bios
[01:34] <remoteCTRL> KillerOrca: either you look into the hardware specs on the homepage of the manufacturer, or you look through the bios settings?
[01:34] <grant> hello
[01:34] <remoteCTRL> gosh is that even a question?
[01:34] <KillerOrca> iceroot, well it is a Compaq, I don't know where to find that since HP bought them, an old one too
[01:34] <iceroot> KillerOrca: google
[01:34] <remoteCTRL> -.-
[01:35] <FernandoF> yoshimit: i can not see a suitable solution in the post you sent ...
[01:35] <remoteCTRL> !google
[01:35] <FernandoF> have you a better idea?
[01:36] <puff> remoteCTRL: What the heck... what key brings up the "save screenshot" popup, I think it's stuck or osmetihng I'm getting dozens of these popups.
[01:37] <remoteCTRL> err.. german keyboard over here i can't tell the english name
[01:38] <FernandoF> someone can help to solve the error pasted in http://paste.ubuntu.com/139278/
[01:38] <unop> puff, should be the 'PrintScreen' key.
[01:38] <KillerOrca> ok how would I find out anything about an 8+ year old motherboard whose only info I have is the manufacturer's name?
[01:39] <KillerOrca> I should be clearer, the PC maker's name
[01:39] <Joker_-_> how do I mount a TOC file? (mount -o loop file.toc /mnt/somewhere)
[01:39] <remoteCTRL> FernandoF: ls -l /usr/share/apps/kxkb/ubuntu.xmodmap ?
[01:39] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: no joy at all. there is no [fn] key combo to turn wireless on or off. I did push the button, reboot. no joy, push again, reboot. no joy, just reboot. no joy. log in to win, noticed, win turns off wireless before logging out. no setting in bios to change this action
[01:39] <remoteCTRL> wow unop old dude!:) howsit goin?
[01:40] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: sorry to say that i am stuck there too then..
[01:40] <fabio> hi to all, I have this problem with ubuntu studio 8.10: I've just installed it, but after I boot I get the command line login interface, not the graphic one
[01:40] <unop> hey remoteCTRL  :)   could be better if I didn't have a java assignment to do. :)
[01:41] <fabio> I'm not very expert on linux, so how can I start the graphic server? I do not get error messages
[01:41] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: well, it's all good, thanks for all the help so far... I'll have to look into some other way. I went to HP site. they have info for a lot of stuff but not AR5009 :(
[01:41] <remoteCTRL> hehe so that's what keeps you up at this time:) on a Friday night at 1 am?:D
[01:41] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: just keep on googling you'll find everything there eventually
[01:42] <remoteCTRL> unop: hehe so that's what keeps you up at this time:) on a Friday night at 1 am?:D
[01:42] <unop> remoteCTRL, it's due in on monday - 800+ lines to go :-s
[01:42] <Here4TheGear> lol when will the world learn... linux users buy stuff too.
[01:42] <fabio> can't someone please help me? :P
[01:42] <remoteCTRL> unop: omg are you coding a whole ftp server or whut?
[01:42] <Platypus-Man> I'm having trouble getting my Logitech Z-10 usb speakers to work... my current sound preferences is ALSA everywhere possible and Z-10 USB Speaker (Alsa Mixer) on Device... have tried just about every setting so far, but still no cigar...
[01:43] <Barridus> !kernel
[01:43] <unop> remoteCTRL,  something like that - it's a Client/Server Stock and Order Retrieval system
[01:43] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: ls: cannot access /usr/share/apps/kxkb/ubuntu.xmodmap: No such file or directory
[01:44] <ubuntux782> could somebody help me. I wanna install a Nvidia Vanta -16 driver on my computer, but I am new in linux
[01:44] <yoshimit> FernandoF: the post didnt help you ?
[01:44] <FernandoF> no yoshimit
[01:44] <remoteCTRL> unop: sounds interesting! but java?? designpatterns like proxy object and socket stuff with input/oputput streams right? with gui?
[01:44] <yoshimit> FernandoF: too bad. sorry.
[01:45] <FernandoF> yoshimit: No problem, appreciated anyway
[01:45] <remoteCTRL> FernandoF: there you go....
[01:45] <Kelen> got a freezes "starting kernel log daemon" after compile kernel 2.6.29. anyone could help me?
[01:45] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: ready master
[01:46] <unop> remoteCTRL,  yea, ObjectInput/OutputStreams wrapped around sockets but there's quite a few beans to do the database interaction
[01:46] <remoteCTRL> ubuntux782: go to system/administration/hardware drivers and enable the driver
[01:46] <unop> remoteCTRL, no GUIs - we don't do so much of that as we're network guys taking this module
[01:47] <nonewmsgs> my ubuntu is all kinds of jacked :( first pidgin kept segfaulting whenever i started it and now oncei rebooted it i coldnt get iinto X (not even into failsafe) so i did an automatic reconfiguring of xorg.conf and now i can't even get to a login screen anymore
[01:47] <remoteCTRL> unop: gawd odbc too, how long have you been prcrastinating this? i mean that can't bee a weekends assignment*g*
[01:47] <valentin__> No video in mplayer wtf ?
[01:47] <ubuntux782> let me check thank's
[01:48] <remoteCTRL> FernandoF: i believe its best if you reinstall x: sudo apt-get purge xserver* xorg* && auso apt-get install xserver-xorg
[01:48] <remoteCTRL> or so
[01:48] <remoteCTRL> ubuntux782: np
[01:48] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: ok will try
[01:48] <fabio> is it normal that ubuntu studio has no server x installed?
[01:48] <unop> remoteCTRL,  it's only a few hours of work .. lot of the methods are similar, so I'll just use vim to sort that out .. but it's coming up with a clean API to make everything simple that's the hardest part - and my java's rusty - I'm a perl guy.
[01:49] <chronic> nonewmsgs: ur pc is prob unstable, bad overclock maybe?
[01:49] <eseven73> !u | chronic
[01:49] <remoteCTRL> unop: as most hands on guys are:) java is so.... sphisticated, mostly complete overkill
[01:49] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: is the line you posted to me correct as it is? or it is 2 lines?
[01:49] <remoteCTRL> FernandoF: one line
[01:49] <nonewmsgs> not overclocked and it had good uptime until today.  using only ubuntu on it for the past few years
[01:49] <Here4TheGear> oh, should I try ndswraper... madwifi isn't doing anything. Do I need to get rid of madwifi first?
[01:49] <johninlex> could someone tell me how to rebuild xorg please
[01:50] <JAO1988> Hey

[01:50] <nonewmsgs> ok i am on login menu but when i try to login the screen flashes trying to give correct resolution and hte busy icon then back to the login screen
[01:50] <johninlex> jeeves,  ctrl c
[01:50] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: ndiswrapper will not work with atheros cards, madwifi is what you want, you're just missing some little detail which i also don't know..
[01:51] <jeeves> johninlex, I'm getting into shell remotley, and the logged in term is the local one
[01:51] <johninlex> Here4TheGear,  can you do me a lspci and tell me what card you have plese
[01:51] <Here4TheGear> remoteCTRL: ok, cool.. that's good to know, at least It will help me to narrow my search terms... thanks
[01:51] <chronic> nonewmsgs: boot in the recovery mode, it will give u an option to auto fix xserver problems
[01:51] <remoteCTRL> Here4TheGear: anytime!
[01:52] <johninlex> do you just want to force it close
[01:52] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: couldnt find package auso
[01:52] <johninlex> jeeves,  up a few lines
[01:52] <jeeves> johninlex, ???
[01:53] <johninlex> Here4TheGear,  can you do me a lspci and tell me what card you have please
[01:53] <bluenzo^nix> is there something i can install so i can print with my printer?
[01:53] <remoteCTRL> ok, night everybody, unop nice hearing from ya, good success then
[01:53] <Here4TheGear> johninlex:  the only line I see re atheros is :: 07:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Atheros Communications Inc. Unknown device [168c:002a] (rev 01)

[01:53] <bluenzo^nix> thanks :)
[01:54] <johninlex> jeeves,  please tell me more on what your trying to do
[01:54] <johninlex> Here4TheGear,  can you try this page I am fixing to give you and let me know your out come
[01:54] <jeeves> johninlex, I has to get someone locally to login to the CLI, and they forgot to log out.  I need to forcably log that local session so no one plays with it
[01:54] <mnzy> hi, i need help!
[01:55] <Here4TheGear> johninlex: sure
[01:55] <mnzy> is there a list of all default sessions that start with ubuntu?
[01:55] <valentin__> mplayer shows no video while vlc does. Why?
[01:55] <mnzy> i deleted one by accident and dont know which one it was...
[01:56] <johninlex> jeeves,  can you shut down and log out and restart you should be ok at that point
[01:56] <valentin__> gnome-mplayer does that to .. no video .. strange
[01:56] <jeeves> johninlex, true, but I'd like to learn how to force that session to log out without rebooting
[01:57] <Here4TheGear> jeeves: ps auxx | grep "the user's name here" then you should see the second set of numbers from the left is the process number... just type kill 99999 :::: assuming 999999 are the digits you see..
[01:57] <jeeves> Here4TheGear, ok, thanks.
[01:57] <Thecks> Quick question, I just installed Ubuntu 9.06 to have a play with eucalyptus but I can't seem to find it with the distro at all?
[01:57] <mnzy> can't somebody help me? it was a session starting with A :F
[01:57] <mnzy> i'm scared to shut down
[01:57] <Here4TheGear> jeeves: np and don't get too crazy with the kill switch LOL...
[01:57] <Thecks> Can somebody please point me in the right direction? :)
[01:58] <jeeves> Here4TheGear, I'm the only one who should have access to this box
[01:58] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: it seems to be stopped "* Restarting Hardware abstraction layer hald"
[01:59] <FernandoF> LjL hello
[01:59] <Here4TheGear> hah, I like typing 'man kill' in the terminal...
[01:59] <Platypus-Man> hm... suddenly the audio started working in rhytmbox, but no dice with mplayer
[01:59] <jeeves> Here4TheGear, screw it, I'll just reboot
[01:59] <nonewmsgs> i tried the fixX options but i still have NO love
[01:59] <Here4TheGear> jeeves: right, but you're trying to stop a specific user right? well, not the user, just kill their session?
[02:00] <jeeves> Here4TheGear, the user logged in with my user name, so there is some confusion, so I'll just reboot it
[02:00] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: invoke.rc.d initscript hal, "restart" failed.
[02:00] <Here4TheGear> jeeves: oh ok
[02:00] <johninlex> Here4TheGear,  have you tried to install for the atheros 242x yet
[02:00] <clearscreen> is there something like aptitude with a GUI? I don't like it's feel... something like synaptic would be great, but synaptic only shows installed 'applications', not all installed packages
[02:01] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: bash: auso: command not found
[02:01] <johninlex> I was going to give you a good page but I dont have it on my desktop any more Here4TheGear
[02:01] <kinja-sheep> Important question -- Does anybody know why USB transfer are terrible slow with large files?
[02:02] <mnzy> i found the session i deleted, it was that AT-SPI thing :>
[02:02] <johninlex> Here4TheGear,  he could have done ctrl alt backspace
[02:02] <mnzy> can somebody tell me the correct command to start it?
[02:03] <Here4TheGear> johninlex: aww that's ok.. um... I don't know much about all of this... the only thing I've done so far were the steps here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=816780&highlight=atheros+amd64
[02:03] <johninlex> kinja-sheep,  are you using a high speed port
[02:03] <devil_> helloooooooo guys
[02:03] <devil_> hello guys
[02:03] <devil_> i am new overhere
[02:03] <mnzy> anybody please? just have a short look into your sessions :/
[02:04] <kinja-sheep> johninlex: I havE issuE with uppErcasE E so kEEp in BEar with mE.  I'm spEaking of usb sticks and Bcaus I bought 1TB ExtErnal HDD rEcEnTly to backup my filEs.
[02:04] <bluenzo^nix> whats a common program in nix to modify the sources, like unrealircd?
[02:04] <clearscreen> mnzy: hold on
[02:04] <devil_> hello guys..........
[02:04] <clearscreen> AT SPI Registry Wrapper
[02:04] <Here4TheGear> johninlex: oh dude, I just did ctrl alt backspace.. what was that? please tell me I'm logged in to two places now... and doing it again will take me back
[02:04] <devil_> i am new here
[02:04] <clearscreen> FUCK
[02:05] <devil_> will you guide me
[02:05] <clearscreen> I just deleted it myself :x
[02:05] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: ok ..now I have my machine not getting in graphics mode
[02:05] <devil_> from where i can download unix
[02:05] <mnzy> really?
[02:05] <johninlex> Here4TheGear,  I dont like this one let me keep trying to find you the right one
[02:05] <FernandoF> so what could i do?
[02:05] <mnzy> sorry :F
[02:05] <devil_> yaa
[02:05] <clearscreen> mnzy: it's AT SPI Registry Wrapper.. I clicked edit to see the command
[02:05] <clearscreen> but deleted it :D
[02:05] <eressolar> mnzy: clearscreen: /usr/lib/gnome-session/helpers/at-spi-registryd-wrapper    :p
[02:05] <mnzy> i think it is  	at-spi-registryd
[02:05] <clearscreen> gnome should really get "Apply" buttons
[02:05] <clearscreen> goddamn :P
[02:05] <mnzy> ok, thanks
[02:06] <clearscreen> ty eressolar
[02:06] <iBuys> Hello Everyone
[02:06] <mnzy> yeah it's a pretty dangerous clicking area :>
[02:06] <Here4TheGear> what does ctrl alt backspace do?
[02:06] <gigabites2> that's part of the gnome philosophy though; less buttons
[02:06] <clearscreen> it restarts your X server
[02:06] <gigabites2> Here4TheGear: kills x
[02:06] <johninlex> no you should only do that after you click the desktop. It will log you out of ubuntu
[02:06] <Here4TheGear> oh cruds...
[02:07] <Here4TheGear> lol... my install of studio I bet halted
[02:07] <gigabites2> Here4TheGear: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:07] <FernandoF> remoteCTRL: any idea to get graphics mode back?
[02:07] <gigabites2> Here4TheGear:  That should get you running again
[02:07] <mnzy> and can finally somebody tell me if "at-spi-registryd-wrapper" is activated by default?
[02:08] <clearscreen> So, is there anything similar to synaptic, but with ALL packages (like aptitude offers) rather than just 'installed applications'?
[02:08] <devil_> is there anybody to help me find out where i can download unix os???
[02:08] <gigabites2> clearscreen: Synaptic does offer all packages.
[02:08] <clearscreen> gigabites2: it only shows installed 'applications'
[02:09] <gigabites2> clearscreen: Have you reloaded from the repositories & clicked the buttons at the top to show all applications?
[02:09] <ethiotech> #join QT
[02:09] <FernandoF> how can i have my machine back in gaphics mode as i have only line command text now? ubuntu 8.10
[02:09] <clearscreen> example: installation of gnome-games will list all the games in synaptic.. I want to see packages gnome-games, gnome-games-data, etc
[02:09] <Platypus-Man> noone know whats wrong with my audio setup?
[02:09] <adamb> which is faster? a two harddrive raid1 with 2 partitions (1 with the OS and one with the Data) or 1HD with the OS and 1HD with the data
[02:09] <clearscreen> gigabites2: that shows applications, not packages
[02:09] <johninlex> ok who is next
[02:09] <clearscreen> compare synpatic with aptitude
[02:09] <puff> Man that was annoying...  a zillion "save screen" popups ended up crashing ubuntu.
[02:09] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Login as root or administrator and type in sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:09] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Assuming you have a desktop installed
[02:10] <johninlex> ok I came in to fix my problem and started fixing others, feels good though
[02:11] <gigabites2> clearscreen: I don't know. I've never had that problem with Synaptic. If all else fails, there's always apt-get. Are you sure you're using synaptic and not the gnome-install thing?
[02:11] <the|Navigator> Hi, I don't have the computer on me, but I was wondering if there are any diagnostic kinda things I can try - We have an admin user and a very limited and locked down user.  The admin user can access a wifi access point, but the locked down one cannot.  If I access it via admin, then log out and move to the locked down, it works.  The access point authenticates based on MAC address and not on any kind of password, but the student one will throw reques
[02:11] <the|Navigator> authentication sometimes.
[02:11] <nonewmsgs> how can i fix my X problems (fixX in recovery mode didnt) and dpgk reconfigure xesrver xorg didnt
[02:11] <clearscreen> gigabites2: I'm sure ;) synaptic only shows installed applications, it makes assumptions based on the packages you have installed
[02:12] <clearscreen> it does NOT show you a list of all installed PACKAGES (stuff like libraries and such)
[02:12] <FernandoF> gigabyte2: got the message "unable to resolve host Malhada-Xibas" being Malhada-Xibas my computer name
[02:12] <nonewmsgs> or how can i reinstall ubuntu without losing anything
[02:12] <johninlex> does anyone want to help me with a problem???
[02:12] <ethiotech>  I would like to modify QT's QLineEdit to have a  keyboard image on its right.. any idea how I can modify the Qt's source code?
[02:12] <clearscreen> johninlex: dont ask to ask just ask
[02:13] <johninlex> yea I know how to ask, I was wanting to make sure it was clear to do so
[02:13] <FernandoF> gigabites2: And I had some minutes ago a desktop installed
[02:13] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Can you log in at all?
[02:13] <johninlex> can anyone tell me how to restore Xorg
[02:13] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Sorry, I didn't see previous message
[02:14] <johninlex> wb here4thegear
[02:14] <FernandoF> gigabites2: yes I can log in in text mode
[02:14] <nonewmsgs> johninlex: cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf1232 xorg.conf (or is that the toher way around)
[02:14] <gigabites2> FernandoF: But you cannot restart gdm?
[02:14] <here4thegear> johninlex: thanks.. sorry, I had to get untethered so, I'm back in vista for now... but, would love to see any pages you can come up with
[02:15] <gigabites2> johninlex: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:15] <Fleisch> there a command to see what sound card you have
[02:15] <the|Navigator> nonewmsgs: cp (src) (dest)
[02:15] <FernandoF> gigabites2:  do you mean " sudo restart gdm"?
[02:15] <johninlex> here4thegear, http://madberry.org/2008/08/how-to-get-atheros-ar242x-wireless-to-work-2/     try this one it looks better
[02:15] <Free0ne> Hey could anyone tell me how to (if possible) downgrade back to ubuntu 8.10? I just upgraded to 9.04 beta to see some of the new features and now I know why they call it a beta ;)
[02:15] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:15] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Sorry, there's an init script that starts gdm for you..
[02:16] <gigabites2> clearscreen: Yes, but it said something about not being about to resolve the hostname for his local computer
[02:16] <nonewmsgs> can i switch my wm from kdm to gdm and would it make any difference
[02:16] <the|Navigator> But yes, any ideas why a limited user does not have access to wifi when the admin user does?  Are there any restrictions, such as to a password keychain or any other authentication parts that would restrict this?
[02:16] <gigabites2> nonewmsgs: You can switch between kdm and gdm only one can be active at once
[02:17] <nonewmsgs> how gigabites2
[02:17] <clearscreen> install gnome
[02:17] <FernandoF> gigabites2: /etc/init.d/gdm : command not found
[02:17] <clearscreen> lol
[02:17] <clearscreen> FernandoF: are you running kubuntu?
[02:17] <gigabites2> the|Navigator: I have an alternative route for doing this.. You could set it up in /etc/interfaces
[02:17] <johninlex> hey clearscreen  got a sec
[02:17] <the|Navigator> gigabites2: ?
[02:17] <gigabites2> the|Navigator: That way the connection starts on boot
[02:18] <the|Navigator> that wold run as root?
[02:18] <the|Navigator> *would
[02:18] <FernandoF> clearscreen : how can i know that?

[02:18] <kalidar> hey guys anyone know how to preform echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
[02:18] <kalidar> i need to do it as root
[02:18] <the|Navigator> rather than the limited account?
[02:18] <racecar56> it crashes when i start recording
[02:18] <kalidar> how do i do that?
[02:18] <clearscreen> FernandoF: what does lsb_release -a say?
[02:18] <mib_gvs8rdh9> heya, could anyone help me share files in a windows network ? to a vista pc
[02:18] <here4thegear> johninlex: thanks for the link, I'll read and try to do it all tomorrow.... everyone here has been so helpful too... thank you all
[02:18] <gigabites2> the|Navigator: I'm not sure exactly. It should work for all users. It circumvents gnome altogether. I don't believe it offers any extra privileges
[02:19] <the|Navigator> gigabites2: What about a network drop, would it still auto reconnect?
[02:19] <FernandoF> clearscreen : intrepid
[02:19] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Are you using plain ubuntu? Or Kubuntu?
[02:19] <maximo> !sebsebseb

[02:19] <babylonsfury> kalidar: did you try running it using sudo?
[02:19] <gigabites2> the|Navigator: You'd need to restart the networking service
[02:19] <kalidar> yes
[02:19] <kalidar> i tryed sudo
[02:19] <johninlex> is the video part of xorg???
[02:19] <the|Navigator> gigabites2: That's no use then.
[02:19] <FernandoF> clearscreen : Ubuntu, 8.10, intrepid
[02:19] <kalidar> i ither ned to do echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
[02:19] <babylonsfury> kalidar: what kind of response did you get? still askes you to be logged in as root?
[02:19] <mib_gvs8rdh9> anyone? : x
[02:19] <the|Navigator> gigabites2: After a network drop, I still need it to reconnect
[02:19] <gigabites2> the|Navigator: You could probably write a script to automagically refresh the connection though.
[02:20] <kalidar> or i need to do artsdsp -v -m et
[02:20] <the|Navigator> gigabites2: I don't want them to all have to restart  when we get an issue
[02:20] <clearscreen> FernandoF: did you remove gnome? possibly installed gnome server?
[02:20] <clearscreen> erm

[02:20] <virtx> how to create a .deb from a source already compiled with "make"?
[02:20] <clearscreen> nonewmsgs: modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[02:20] <FernandoF> I just reinstalled xserver
[02:21] <nonewmsgs> i tried those but i never even saw anything mentioning a drver
[02:21] <chronic> whats a good app if i want to rip a piece of audio from an avi file?
[02:21] <here4thegear> johninlex: the AR242x page, yes, I got it... thanks..
[02:21] <Elijah> If I wanted to change the permissions of a file in the cli would I do chmod u+w filename

[02:21] <wers> can't mount my ntfs. i set the mountpoint to "/windows". now, it doesnt mount at all. any idea? The error message says "mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newlin, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /)" How do I fix this?

[02:21] <clearscreen> FernandoF: try: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xorg ubuntu-desktop
[02:22] <here4thegear> johninlex: yeah, it's easy to get lost when lots of conversation is going on sometimes.. :D
[02:22] <racecar56> xtoffmpeg.c add_video_stream(): video codec not found i guess this explains everything
[02:22] <nonewmsgs> dpkg just asks 10 questions about my keyboard :/ and i didnt see driver in xorg.conf
[02:22] <gigabites2> ^Ocean^: 8.04.2 is LTS and 8.10 for regular release
[02:22] <jrib> virtx: I don't understand your question.
[02:22] <clearscreen> nonewmsgs: driver is somewhere in your Device section
[02:22] <gigabites2> nonewmsgs: It sets that automatically in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:22] <^Ocean^> gigabites2, 8.10 == Hardy ?
[02:22] <gigabites2> ^Ocean^: 8.04 = hardy, 8.10 = intrepid
[02:22] <clearscreen> nonewmsgs: for example
[02:22] <^Ocean^> ahh LTS == ?
[02:22] <virtx> jrib, dh_make recompile the whole source, i 've already make it, i just want to create a .deb by that

[02:23] <jrib> virtx: right, I mean *why*?
[02:23] <johninlex> is the video part of xorg???
[02:23] <nonewmsgs> this is my entire  devices: section "device" identifier "configured video" endsection
[02:23] <gigabites2> ^Ocean^: lts = long term support
[02:23] <gigabites2> ^Ocean^: Supported for 3 years
[02:23] <virtx> jrib, 'cos the source are big and i've no time to recompile.
[02:23] <gartral> so... how come the pidgin in repos is so old?
[02:23] <gigabites2> ^Ocean^: 5 years for server
[02:23] <gigabites2> gartral: which distro?
[02:23] <racecar56> i fixed my problem : D
[02:24] <gartral> gigabites2: 8.10
[02:24] <clearscreen> nonewmsgs: add Driver "<your driver>"
[02:24] <here4thegear> johninlex: hmm, the only thing I see different between that one and the one that I did is this line I didn't have in the one I did :::: sudo modprobe wlan_scan_sta ::: I'll try all of this out in the morning, I need some sleep now though... thanks a million
[02:25] <bromic94> hey all how do i backup my keys
[02:25] <gigabites2> gartral: They didn't meet the feature freeze. Strange that pidgin didn't, but it happens. The next release should be more up-to-date. The only in 8.10 could be 6+ months old.
[02:25] <Xpistos> Hey everybody.
[02:25] <bromic94> so ic an use them on widnows
[02:25] <clearscreen> gartral: ubuntu 8.10 doesn't get regularly updated except for security updates
[02:25] <puff> remoteCTRL: Oy vey... so now my coworkers are getting twitchy at the idea of shrinking physical partitions (afraid of political blowback from the folks who maintain things).  Do you think it would be feasible to jigger the LVM partitions to create an extra logical partition and install ubuntu on that?
[02:25] <johninlex> here4thegear,  keep looking for  the 242x I  am trying to find the best one on handymansblog
[02:25] <nonewmsgs> startx still gives same error about nvidia driver so i am rebooting
[02:25] <bromic94> especially my private key
[02:25] <clearscreen> nonewmsgs:
[02:26] <clearscreen> nonewmsgs: upload xorg.conf to some pastebin
[02:26] <gartral> clearscreen: someone should look at the release notes again, because there are security update i pidgin 2.5.5
[02:26] <gigabites2> puff: Adding a new lvm volume?
[02:26] <gigabites2> puff: Adding or a new logical partition?
[02:26] <FernandoF> clearscreen : it has a lot of errors "Failng to obtain " and ends with not possible to resolve 'archive.ubuntu.com?
[02:26] <clearscreen> gartral: I'm personally running 9.04 just fine, but I did receive a pidgin upgrade about 4 days ago on 8.10
[02:26] <gigabites2> puff: or a new logical partition?**
[02:26] <puff> gigabites2: The latter.
[02:27] <nonewmsgs> clearscreen: how do i upload it to pastebin via the terminal
[02:27] <Platypus-Man> I get sound in rhytmbox, but not mplayer or vlc... any ideas? any at all? even bad ideas would be appreciated at this point....
[02:27] <gigabites2> puff: Impossible, I think. You cannot resize an lvm partition, if that's what you mean. You could try installing to a new lvm volume, but I've never tried it.
[02:27] <bromic94> puff: how do i backup my private gpg key
[02:27] <puff> gigabites2: This is a machine with three physical partitions.  A mutant fedoracore5 using LVM is set up on it.  There are five LVM partitions, two of which have ~10GB available.
[02:27] <lacqui> my update (to jaunty beta) was interrupted.  is there any way to continue it after a hard reboot?
[02:27] <gartral> Platypus-Man: try switching driver output
[02:27] <clearscreen> nonewmsgs: good question, I usually just set up a quick apache server and host it there and grab it from another machine
[02:28] <bromic94> sudo apt-get upgrade -d
[02:28] <bromic94> or update-manager -d
[02:28] <eseven73> lacqui: next time use torrent
[02:28] <n8tuser> lacqui  please visit #ubunut+1
[02:28] <Platypus-Man> gartral: where do I do that?
[02:28] <bromic94> i think it is the second one gartral
[02:28] <clearscreen> FernandoF: do you have an internet connection?
[02:28] <n8tuser> lacqui  please visit #ubuntu+1
[02:28] <puff> gigabites2: I'm trying to figure out how to get ubuntu installed on this machine as a third boot option (besides windows and mutant fedoracore5) without disturbing things too much.  Sadly, there is not a huge chunk of unused disk space (that I can see).
[02:28] <clearscreen> FernandoF: try a simple "ping www.google.com"
[02:28] <gartral> bromic94: 2nd what?
[02:28] <Xpistos> I have a ubuntu server and an ubuntu laptop but I can connect from the laptop to server. Could not open location 'smb://... failed to mount Windows Share" This just started yesterday. Anybody have any ideas.
[02:28] <mtholdenss> hey how can i have my folders in my mac partition accessible during jauny?
[02:29] <bromic94> second command i said to start the upgrade to jaunty beta
[02:29] <FernandoF> on my machine? I think yes...but only text now... And I only have Ubuntu on it and no windows
[02:29] <gigabites2> puff: You aren't considering wubi?
[02:29] <mtholdenss> i can access some folders but not music or documents etc
[02:29] <gigabites2> FernandoF: ping -c 5 google.com
[02:29] <gigabites2> FernandoF: No response?
[02:29] <FernandoF> clearscreen: on my machine? I think yes...but only text now... And I only have Ubuntu on it and no windows
[02:30] <puff> Waitasec...
[02:30] <puff> gigabites2: wubi?
[02:30] <ChotaZ> can anyone teach me how to compile and install from .tar.gz?
[02:30] <clearscreen> FernandoF: try to do a ping @ ubuntu
[02:30] <puff> waitasec... maybe there *is* some unused disk.  Hm.
[02:30] <johninlex> later guys thanks
[02:30] <gigabites2> puff: From the livecd. Allows you to install Ubuntu to a hard drive file in Windows for testing purposes
[02:30] <gartral> Platypus-Man: Tools>Preferences>Audio> and under the Output section, select a different Type in VLC
[02:30] <gigabites2> puff: No partitioning required
[02:30] <clearscreen> ChotaZ: tar -xzf something.tar.gz -  cd <something> - ./configure - make - sudo make install

[02:31] <clearscreen> - = enter :P
[02:31] <gartral> clearscreen: im not seeing any updates, which repos are you using?

[02:31] <chronic> whats a good app if i want to rip a piece of audio from an avi file?
[02:31] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Are you behind a router?
[02:31] <JAO1988> Hey
[02:31] <JAO1988> Now is everything working?
[02:31] <nonewmsgs> is there a way to install ubuntu over itself losing as little data as possible
[02:31] <clearscreen> gartral: personally using 9.04 jaunty, but im pretty damn sure I saw an upgrade to 8.10 pidgin 3 or 4 days ago
[02:32] <n8tuser> nonewmsgs->  what do you mean install to itself?
[02:32] <dr_willis> nonewmsgs:  thats why you often see /home on its own partition. makes that much easier
[02:32] <gigabites2> nonewmsgs: Separate home partition. Just don't format the home partition
[02:32] <FernandoF> clearscreen: get unknown host message
[02:32] <puff> gigabites2: Sounds nifty, but... hm.
[02:32] <nonewmsgs> yeah my /home is a noher partitoin
[02:32] <gartral> clearscreen: which repo database are you using in 8.10?
[02:32] <clearscreen> nonewmsgs: define "data", usually backing up your home folder (including all hidden folders starting with .) does the trick
[02:32] <puff> gigabites2: How much of a speed hit?  The stuff I need to run seriously stresses the system.
[02:32] <gigabites2> puff: Yeah. If you're looking to test it out, it seems ideal. You can then uninstall it from the Windows control panel
[02:32] <FernandoF> clearscreen: yes
[02:32] <JAO1988> I need some help with installing linux on a particular machine
[02:32] <dr_willis> nonewmsgs:  then backup whatever configs you have customized, and you can reinsatll..
[02:32] <clearscreen> gartral: nl.archives.ubuntu.com
[02:32] <puff> gigabites2: Also, how reliable?
[02:33] <clearscreen> FernandoF: you dont have an internet connection on ubuntu it seems, can you pastebin your "ifconfig" output?
[02:33] <FernandoF> clearscreen: and get my internet through router
[02:33] <n8tuser> JAO1988-> what is limiting you so far?
[02:33] <ChotaZ> clearscreen: ./configure says file or directory not existing
[02:33] <Platypus-Man> gartral: that didn't work either
[02:33] <eseven73> chronic:  i think ffmepg can do that, sudo apt-get install ffmepg     (its command line, and youll have to google for the syntax)
[02:33] <JAO1988> I'm looking to install tiny Linux operating system on a NeoWare Geode 300mhz Thin PC with 32mb of RAM, 4mb of Video Memory, and 64mb of Flash Memory
[02:33] <JAO1988> Mostly the RAM
[02:33] <gartral> Platypus-Man: im at a loss
[02:33] <clearscreen> ChotaZ: after extracting the tar archive, cd into it
[02:33] <Platypus-Man> ooh
[02:34] <araujo_> hello people
[02:34] <Platypus-Man> started mplayer again, and got audio
[02:34] <dr_willis> JAO1988:  not sure ubuntuc an handle that low end a system
[02:34] <ethiotech__> anyone knows if I can change QLineEdit's background using stylesheet?
[02:34] <puff> gigabites2: I'm not looking to test... it's a complicated situation.  In a nutshell, these machines have mutant fedoracore5 on them, with dependencies on network servers at this site (kerberos, etC) which will make them unusable if not booted up in this network.
[02:34] <gigabites2> puff: Not sure on the reliability. It seems to have improved immensely since it debuted. It sometimes used to mess w/ the Windows bootloader, but hasn't in recent history, as far as I know. Speed will take a hit since you're reading & writing to a file in an ntfs system. Not sure on the exact speed hit
[02:34] <ChotaZ> clearscreen: the tarball is called
[02:34] <clearscreen> JAO1988: try "DSL" -> Damn Small Linux
[02:34] <Platypus-Man> thanks for the help gartral
[02:34] <JAO1988> dr_willis: I'm getting help also in the Ubuntu Chicago channel
[02:34] <dr_willis> JAO1988:  tinycorelinux, or puppylinux, or DSL can i belive
[02:34] <ChotaZ> clearscreen: noip-duc-linux.tar.gz but when i try to cd noip-duc-linux.tar.gz it says the directory doesnt existe
[02:34] <n8tuser> JAO1988-> that does seem to small, perhaps look into embedded linux?
[02:34] <eseven73> JAO1988:  or puppy
[02:34] <gartral> JAO1988: try zenwalk, its very thin
[02:34] <clearscreen> ChotaZ: tar -xzf noip-duc-linux.tar.gz
[02:34] <gigabites2> puff: Definitely not ideal then.
[02:35] <puff> gigabites2: But on monday we need to drive 200 miles and set up these machines without an outside network to do a demo.
[02:35] <chronic> JAO1988: dsl
[02:35] <Heimark> anyone use Avant Window Navigator?
[02:35] <JAO1988> I'm looking to install it on a External Hard-drive and use it for Media Sharing
[02:35] <JAO1988> Movie playback if possible also
[02:35] <clearscreen> JAO1988: you can run DSL on an external harddrive
[02:35] <clearscreen> even on a USB stick
[02:35] <gigabites2> puff: So speed is an issue, you cannot touch the partitioning..
[02:35] <ChotaZ> clearscreen: did.
[02:35] <araujo_> I have a problem with a wireless card rtl-8185 wireless card, in window$ has veri nice signal but not in linux, I'm Using ubuntu 8.10
[02:35] <clearscreen> ChotaZ: cd noip[TAB][ENTER]
[02:35] <puff> gigabites2: which is why I'm looking to figure out some way to boot them under ubuntu and use the drives/partitions with the fedoracore stuff on them solely as data disks.
[02:36] <ChotaZ> clearscreen still cant ./configure
[02:36] <puff> Is there somethign I can do besides "sudo parted /dev/sd* print" to see drives, etc?
[02:36] <clearscreen> araujo_: what does it's rate say at "iwconfig"?
[02:36] <ChotaZ> =\
[02:36] <gigabites2> puff: Is drive performance important? Would, say, a usb hard drive work?
[02:36] <gigabites2> puff: fdisk -l?
[02:36] <gigabites2> puff: Same idea, though
[02:36] <ChotaZ> chotaz@Zanarkand:~/noip-2.1.9-1$ ./configure
[02:36] <ChotaZ> bash: ./configure: Ficheiro ou directoria inexistente
[02:36] <dr_willis> puff:  sudo fdisk -l, or ls -l /dev/disks/by-XXXX
[02:36] <eseven73> JAO1988: if your external hdd is usb, not all bios's will allow booting from that
[02:37] <JAO1988> That's another problem
[02:37] <puff> gigabites2: Possibly, but then I'd need to scrounge up 10 USB drives....
[02:37] <clearscreen> ChotaZ: is this a kernel patch? maybe it's not built using autoconf, try compiling it directly
[02:37] <clearscreen> type "make"

[02:37] <JAO1988> It seems the bios was last updated in 2003... it had legacy support but it doesn't seem to detect my External HDD
[02:37] <dr_willis> JAO1988:  'geexbox' is a micro linux disrto. designed just for video playback. I make bootable 'video' thumbdrives all the time with it.
[02:37] <puff> gigabites2: Come to think of it, if Iw ent that way, maybe just get 10 HDs and plug them in... hm.
[02:37] <JAO1988> Interesting.
[02:37] <eseven73> like my Dell 2400 dimension, will not allow USB boots
[02:37] <gigabites2> puff: Certainly, but speed may be a limiting factor again.
[02:37] <ChotaZ> clearscreen: it worked I guess
[02:37] <clearscreen> araujo_: you can try manually setting your bit rate higher: sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M
[02:37] <gigabites2> puff: I would've recommend a little flash drive, if that's what you mean
[02:38] <gigabites2> puff: wouldn't**
[02:38] <JAO1988> dr_willis: Would that work for media sharing also, like using Xbmc for example?
[02:38] <duvld> Should I not update if I'm using 9.04 beta? I didn't have update notice untill I used Synaptic, after several reboots.  Would updating install older packages, wants to do 136...?
[02:38] <gigabites2> puff: But ubuntu has no trouble running off a usb-hdd if your bios supports it
[02:38] <dr_willis> JAO1988:  ive never gotten xbmc to actually work. So i know very little of its features.  Geexbox can access samba, and other shares.  it also has some shareing features. Check its homepage.
[02:39] <n8tuser> puff have you seen this? http://www.justlinux.com/forum/showthread.php?t=147959
[02:40] <puff> n8tuser: Cute.
[02:41] <FernandoF> clearscreen: http://paste.ubuntu.com/139299/ here is the paste of ifconfig
[02:41] <puff> I wonder how much 4GB usb sticks cost now...
[02:41] <clearscreen> FernandoF: just that?
[02:41] <eseven73> they're cheap
[02:41] <zeta> hey, \usepackage mdwlist for Latex tells me that m.sty can't be found
[02:41] <zeta> which package is it in
[02:42] <FernandoF> it is the address where i put it
[02:42] <gigabites2> puff: Again, a flash stick isn't recommended. The read/write can kill performance.

[02:42] <gigabites2> clearscreen: It could be down
[02:43] <gigabites2> clearscreen: ifconfig -a should display all
[02:43] <FernandoF> sorry
[02:43] <puff> remoteCTRL: Btw, once I have the lvm partitions mounted, when I do "df -h" they *do* show up as under /dev/mapper.
[02:43] <clearscreen> gigabites2: unless he manually put it down, I dont see how that could happen - worth a try anyway
[02:43] <clearscreen> FernandoF: do you only see "lo" with sudo ifconfig -a
[02:43] <puff> gigabites2: Would a flash/USB install be stabler than a liveCD?
[02:44] <FernandoF> i see lo and the lines i pasted
[02:44] <puff> gigabites2: Most of the read/write can be to the hard drive...
[02:44] <clearscreen> puff: SSD's are much faster than live CD's, so yes
[02:44] <gigabites2> puff: Yes, as clearscreen said.
[02:44] <puff> gigabites2: The idea is to just use the hard drive as a data drive.
[02:44] <puff> Hm.
[02:44] <FernandoF> clearscreen: and I am behind a router
[02:44] <clearscreen> FernandoF: that doesn't matter
[02:44] <FernandoF> so?
[02:45] <clearscreen> FernandoF: try ifconfig -a
[02:45] <clearscreen> do you see the same thing?
[02:45] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Wireless internet or ethernet?
[02:45] <FernandoF> clearscreen: I see eth0, lo and pan0
[02:45] <gigabites2> FernandoF: eth0
[02:46] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Alright, type in sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[02:46] <clearscreen> Yeah, what gigabites2 said
[02:47] <FernandoF> clearscreen: got message "unable to resolve Malhada-Xibas" being Malhada-Xibas my computer name
[02:47] <kolombino> somebody can say me a channel about web developing??

[02:48] <FernandoF> clearscreen: after typing suggested line
[02:48] <eseven73> :P
[02:48] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Does sudo ifconfig show eth0 as up now?
[02:49] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Or did it go down again?
[02:49] <Xpistos> Here is a question, when I do findsmb on my Ubuntu laptop, I get my laptop and my Ubuntu server. If I do it on my server I only see my server. Does this sound right?
[02:49] <gigabites2> Xpistos: You could be blocking access from the server in smb.conf
[02:49] <mint3> !jaunty
[02:49] <JAO1988> Just another question: If I used Wubi to install Linux on my Windows Partition, can I use the Thin Client PC to boot into the Windows terminal and use the Linux OS?
[02:49] <FernandoF> gigabites yes
[02:50] <bluenzo^nix> !help
[02:50] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Yes, it's up, or yes, it's down?
[02:50] <FernandoF> gigabites:it is up
[02:50] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Ok.
[02:50] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Do you know the ip address of your router?
[02:50] <araujo_> don but is still to low signal even desconected in some cases
[02:50] <araujo_> in windows 65 - 70% in ubuntu 8 - 10%
[02:50] <Capscrew> Just updated to Hardy -- numocks doesn't work.  Anyone know how to fix
[02:50] <FernandoF> gigabites:yes
[02:51] <Capscrew> that's numlocks
[02:51] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Are you using a static ip address or dhcp?
[02:51] <araujo_> I think higer is worst
[02:51] <araujo_> sorry I had no conection
[02:51] <araujo_> i put again 11M an conected again
[02:51] <clearscreen> gigabites2: I'm not sure if dhcpcd is installed by default on ubuntu
[02:51] <gigabites2> clearscreen: dhclient works though
[02:51] <araujo_> is posible to change Tx-Power 27 dBm to higer?  what do you recomend?
[02:51] <gigabites2> clearscreen: dhclient <interface>
[02:51] <clearscreen> gigabites2: ah, excellent :)
[02:52] <clearscreen> I think it's safe to assume FernandoF is using dhcp :P
[02:52] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo dhclient eth0
[02:53] <Xpistos> gigabites2: let me check that out
[02:53] <mint3> can anyone help me with my atheros wireless
[02:53] <mint3> usin  the restricted drivers
[02:53] <mint3> but cant seem to scan for the available wireless
[02:54] <mint3> anyone ?
[02:54] <gigabites2> mint3: Is that with iwlist or with gnome-network-manager?
[02:54] <clearscreen> radio enabled?
[02:54] <mint3> k tnkn, ge
[02:54] <araujo_> wich one is the spanish channel?
[02:54] <mint3> i think genome netwrok man
[02:55] <mint3> not sure gigabites2 , how do i check that
[02:55] <FernandoF> clearscreen: just did
[02:55] <clearscreen> FernandoF: try to do a ping now
[02:55] <gigabites2> mint3: gnome-network-manager has an anomaly wherein it only accepts cards that support hardware scanning
[02:55] <dan__> so I keep installing the recommended updates, and eeeBuntu keeps coming up with 57 new updates for me to install. will i ever win the battle
[02:55] <gigabites2> mint3: in short, if the driver doesn't support that, it won't work with gnome-network-manager
[02:55] <mint3> gigabites2,  how can i check if thats what im using
[02:55] <FernandoF> gigabites: it is pinging
[02:55] <puff> gigabites2:  I just realize the machiens *also* have a separate, 40GB physical partition, formatted ext3, for the /home directories. S o... Hm.
[02:56] <mint3> thing is , i did manage to find and connect to my wireless
[02:56] <gigabites2> mint3: if you're using the interface in gnome, it's gnome-network-manager
[02:56] <clearscreen> FernandoF: ok cool, now lets update ;) sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xorg ubuntu-desktop
[02:56] <gigabites2> mint3: Bad luck then?
[02:56] <FernandoF> clearscreen : it is pinging
[02:56] <clearscreen> press ctrl + c
[02:56] <clearscreen> it'll stop
[02:56] <mint3>  if it worked once it should surely work again right
[02:56] <gigabites2> puff: Hmm. You could create settings the livecd to mount home on boot and use that to store your data
[02:57] <FernandoF> clearscreen: stopped
[02:57] <gigabites2> puff: Hmm. You could create settings in** the livecd to mount /home on boot and use that to store your data
[02:57] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xorg ubuntu-desktop
[02:57] <J_Litewski> does ext3 have the abiltiy for online defrag?
[02:58] <bluenzo^nix> defrag, whats this defrag you speak of :P
[02:58] <clearscreen> heh
[02:58] <flippo> J_Litewski, you're a recent Windows user, I take it?
[02:58] <FernandoF> clearscreen: running
[02:58] <J_Litewski> nope, been on linux for a while

[02:58] <FernandoF> clearscreen: lets see what happens
[02:58] <clearscreen> FernandoF: yup
[02:59] <J_Litewski> i was looking at newer FS for linux, and they say that they support online defrag
[02:59] <mint3> i just plugged my lan cable in it doesnt even see it
[02:59] <gigabites2> evilnick: It is no longer online. The sourceforge page was removed last I checked
[02:59] <gigabites2> mint3: open a terminal, type in ifconfig and tell me what you see
[02:59] <araujo_> #ubuntu-es
[02:59] <gigabites2> mint3: open a terminal, type in sudo ifconfig and tell me what you see
[02:59] <clearscreen> evilnick: you might be able to find it in google cache
[03:00] <gigabites2> mint3: Sorry, you need sudo
[03:00] <evilnick> gigabites2: Thanks - I did do a quick google search. Is there any more information?
[03:00] <FernandoF> clearscreen: returned command line
[03:00] <FernandoF> clearscreen: and now?
[03:00] <clearscreen> FernandoF: any errors?
[03:00] <FernandoF> clearscreen: it seems no!
[03:00] <clearscreen> startx

[03:01] <microman> how to do that?

[03:01] <clearscreen> FernandoF: dont worry about it if it wasnt somewhere at the end of all that, just try to startx
[03:01] <levarnu> anyone use sun's secure global desktop under ubuntu?
[03:01] <evilnick> Darn. I did have a driver automatically installed, but it wasn't working so I blacklisted it and followed some old instructions that I found online, but no joy so far
[03:01] <FernandoF> clearscreen: Fatal server error
[03:01] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[03:02] <Iceman_B^ssh> microman: I believe the command is "sudo aptitude dist-upgrade" or just use the update manager
[03:02] <Iceman_B^ssh> somebody correct me if Im wrong
[03:02] <clearscreen> FernandoF: surely it said more than that :P
[03:02] <microman> Iceman_B^ssh	: tried

[03:03] <microman> $sudo apt-get update
[03:03] <zaccour> it said not found, do not have permission, etc
[03:03] <gigabites2> mint3: So? What do you need?

[03:03] <Jinxed-> I was going to install ubuntu so I can dual boot, but I would eventually like to reinstall windows. Is there a way to repartition my harddrive to have ubuntu and windows as a dual boot and then be able to reinstall windows later without having to kill by ubuntu partiton?
[03:03] <mint3> gigabites2,  trying to et my wireless to work
[03:03] <Iceman_B^ssh> microman: I'm afraid that's all I know, i'm realtively new to linux as wel
[03:03] <clearscreen> noisy1: if you don't have apt-cache: apt-get install apt-cache
[03:03] <gigabites2> FernandoF: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less
[03:04] <clearscreen> might have to apt-cache update
[03:04] <clearscreen> FernandoF: where are you typing from?
[03:04] <gigabites2> mint3: Is your card detected?
[03:04] <zaccour> is there a puppy linux channel?
[03:04] <gigabites2> clearscreen: I told him to look @ the log for xorg to see waht failed
[03:04] <noisy1> clearscreen: cool! I'll give that a try
[03:04] <mint3> how can i check if it is , gigabites2
[03:05] <clearscreen> gigabites2: yeah, im just asking where he's typing from
[03:05] <zaccour> is there a puppy linux channel?
[03:05] <eseven73> zaccour: prolly but im betting it has 100 users, and 98 of them sleeping :/
[03:05] <gigabites2> mint3: sudo ifconfig              wlan# should show up
[03:05] <clearscreen> I would suggest something like WinSCP if he's currently on his windows PC
[03:05] <Go0dW> Åñòü êòî ïî ðóññêèé ãîâîðÿùèé ???
[03:05] <clearscreen> so he can grab stuff over ssh
[03:05] <Xpistos> gigabites2: You nailed it. I checked in the file and the "hosts allow" entry did not have the new ip address that i reserved for this laptop. I thought it might have something to do with the IPs but I did not think it was in the smb.conf file. Thanks for the help.
[03:05] <brett__> .org
[03:05] <gigabites2> Xpistos: Certainly. :)
[03:05] <rww> zaccour: #puppylinux on this server, according to http://puppylinux.org/wiki/archives/old-wikka-wikki/categorydocumentation/puppylinuxirc

[03:05] <Jinxed-> I was going to install ubuntu so I can dual boot, but I would eventually like to reinstall windows. Is there a way to repartition my harddrive to have ubuntu and windows as a dual boot and then be able to reinstall windows later without having to kill by ubuntu partiton?

[03:06] <FernandoF> clearscreen: i am on a windows PC trying to fix my Ubuntu machine
[03:06] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Try... cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
[03:06] <FernandoF> clearscreen: both oer same router
[03:06] <gigabites2> FernandoF: Should narrow the list significantly
[03:07] <Go0dW> Hi, I just start use Ubuntu, now I on Windows PC... I need a litle help with Ubuntu, please someone help me
[03:07] <clearscreen> FernandoF: there's multiple ways really, either narrow the results by piping to grep (what gigabites2 suggested), or you can run a web/ftp/ssh server on your ubuntu host and access it from your windows pc
[03:07] <evilnick> Hmmm, so the guide I followed told me to blacklist the driver that Ubuntu installed for my wireless card. To unblacklist it, can I just comment out the line I added?
[03:07] <clearscreen> Go0dW: dont ask to ask just ask
[03:08] <gigabites2> evilnick: Yes. In /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist?
[03:08] <FernandoF> clearscreen: are you looking for "Failed to load module "nv"?
[03:08] <clearscreen> bingo
[03:08] <Go0dW> ok... i can't install driver 4 modem
[03:08] <robbie623> hello all
[03:08] <A23> Does anyone here think they could answer a quick question about Xchat Gnome?
[03:08] <FernandoF> clearscreen: is his bingo for me?
[03:09] <gigabites2> FernandoF: To get xorg back up, you can try this: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:09] <melik> anyone know a good system admin tool?
[03:09] <mint3> gigabites2,  =  i did sudo ifconfig
[03:09] <melik> to monitor/admin a big network
[03:09] <mint3> i dont see "wlan"
[03:09] <tvih-> evilnick: atheros card by any chance?
[03:09] <FernandoF> clearscreen: under sudo?
[03:09] <gigabites2> mint3: You commented the line, correct?
[03:09] <evilnick> gigabites2: Right. I've done that and restarted, but now the card isn't shown in Device Manager or 'sudo ifconfig'
[03:09] <Go0dW> to install it i must create *.rules document in /etc/dev/rules.d but i have promishion 2 change it
[03:09] <mint3> no  whats it again, gigabites2   ?
[03:09] <clearscreen> FernandoF: yes, but you're going to end up installing the legacy/binary drivers from nvidia anyway
[03:10] <gigabites2> evilnick: modprobe <drivermodule>
[03:10] <evilnick> tvih-: How did you know? ;)
[03:10] <dan__> go0d, have you tried flushing the drive cache on partition C?
[03:10] <Iceman_B^ssh> does anyone know the quickest way to add a new harddrive to Ibex?
[03:10] <robbie623>  i have a prolbem with sound volume....on install it was same as winblozes  but now after like 7 weeks the volume is very lox
[03:10] <J_Litewski> can i safely uninstall everything related to bluetooth if my computer doesn't support it?
[03:10] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[03:12] <mint3> gigabites2,  - is it "sudo ifconfig #wlan" ?
[03:12] <gigabites2> mint3: Sorry, ignore that last comment. Do you know if your wireless card is supported?
[03:12] <tvih-> evilnick: spent most of yesterday and this night getting my atheros to work ;P
[03:12] <Iceman_B^ssh> it has 3 NTFS partitions which I want to keep for now, and I want to mount all of them in a certain dir
[03:12] <mint3> yes i think it is gigabites2 ,  how can i check tho
[03:12] <Iceman_B^ssh> oh and I want to use quotas on it
[03:12] <tvih-> evilnick: in the end the only thing that worked was installing the .28 kernel and going from there
[03:12] <gigabites2> mint3: No, when you type in sudo ifconfig, a wlan entry should show up
[03:12] <Go0dW> dan__ plz, ask litle simle... i russian =)))))
[03:12] <evilnick> How do I find out the drivermodule?
[03:12] <gigabites2> mint3: Try sudo ifconfig -a
[03:12] <mint3> ok
[03:12] <gigabites2> evilnick: What you blacklisted
[03:12] <robbie623>  i have a prolbem with sound volume....on install it was same as winblozes  but now after like 7 weeks the volume is very lox
[03:12] <evilnick> tvih-: Upgrading the kernel?  Thanks
[03:12] <mint3> i dont see wlan
[03:12] <zombor> hello, when im trying to run virtual box service, it says "no suitable module for running kernel found." how can i fix this? when i run /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup it says invalid command
[03:12] <dan__> the electrons must flow freely
[03:12] <mint3> thats odd, how come i could see it earlier and even connect then
[03:12] <zombor> well, not invalid, but that setup isn't valid
[03:12] <dan__> path must be cleared for glorious revolution of bits and bytes
[03:12] <A23> Does anyone here think they could answer a quick question about Xchat Gnome? #xchat's dead.
[03:12] <tvih-> evilnick: simple task with the precompiled kernels, but yeah, well. couldn't get it to work otherwise myself.
[03:12] <clearscreen> dan__: surely you must visit StackOverflow? :P
[03:12] <gigabites2> mint3: The card either is not supported or the module isn't loaded. You said you installed a 3rd party module, correct? Do you remember what it was called? It might not be loaded @ boot.
[03:12] <tvih-> evilnick: some others have had more luck so i guess you might too
[03:12] <dan__> clearscreen im trying to give support in russian
[03:12] <mint3> all it was a restricted driver
[03:12] <mint3> madwifi i think, gigabites2
[03:12] <Iceman_B^ssh> microman: the command should be "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" exactly like that
[03:12] <mint3> its an atheros wireless card
[03:12] <gigabites2> mint3: sudo modprobe madwifi
[03:12] <Iceman_B^ssh> if you're still looking to upgrade
[03:12] <clearscreen> dan__: I've read of a story of some programmer making his co-worker secretary believe that it improved electron-flow by picking up the mouse every day and swinging the cord

[03:15] <gigabites2> Go0dW: If you want to set the root password, try sudo passwd
[03:15] <mint3> when i go to hardware drivers, i see "aternate atheros madwifi" driver is activated and currently in use
[03:15] <evilnick> So, once I have wlan0 showing under ifconfig, what are the next steps to getting the wireless working?
[03:15] <gigabites2> Go0dW: Otherwise, just su ~

[03:15] <gigabites2> Go0dW: Sorry, su -
[03:15] <tvih-> evilnick: pray it appears in network manager ;P hehe

[03:16] <eldermf> anybody there trying the ubuntu 9.04?
[03:16] <robbie623> taco go aphla
[03:16] <tacosarecool> Oh yeah by the way I'm on a toshiba satellite a105-s4074 and I don't think I have lag anymore on ubuntu
[03:16] <gigabites2> mint3: Have you loaded the madwifi module?
[03:16] <little> hanasaki: http://littlegirl.hostrator.com/DVDPlayback.html
[03:16] <tacosarecool> Why alpha?
[03:16] <mint3> it says enabled gigabites2  so am assumin it is
[03:17] <clearscreen> Mencar: I am not certain, but I believe hotmail blocked IMAP access a while ago
[03:17] <gigabites2> mint3: Does the card show up in ifconfig now?
[03:17] <Mencar> thats what I have been reading so far
[03:17] <evilnick> gigabites2: I've seen it in terminal (using ifconfig). And can also see it in Network Settings, what I can't do is find how to search for my SSID.
[03:17] <Mencar> figured I would come here to see if anyone would know anything
[03:17] <FernandoF> clearscreen: i am back
[03:17] <mint3> no
[03:17] <clearscreen> The only alternative would be some kind of plugin that works through HTTP requests and parsing the responses, but I doubt anyone has written or will ever write one :P
[03:17] <mint3> its not there gigabites2 , i see eth0 and lo
[03:17] <FernandoF> clearscreen: i got graphics configurations
[03:17] <DesiArnez6> "CD/DVD Creator" program problem. My DVD is half full from a previous backup. How do I add more backup files? 7.10 Gutsy
[03:18] <tvih-> evilnick: it should find it automatically if it is working correctly. unless using a hidden ssid.
[03:18] <clearscreen> FernandoF: what do you mean?
[03:18] <gigabites2> mint3: ifconfig -a too?
[03:18] <Mencar> ok thanks guys
[03:18] <gigabites2> evilnick: Well, you can try iwlist from the terminal
[03:18] <mint3> yeah gigabites2
[03:18] <mint3> nothing shows up with wlan
[03:19] <gigabites2> mint3: Strange.
[03:19] <FernandoF> clearscreen: the nvidia pachkage ends with (elts try to translate) "nvidia-glx pack has no candidate for installation"
[03:19] <mint3> yet in the taskbar near the time, there is the wireless bars with a cross on it
[03:19] <gigabites2> mint3: Because you have ethernet connection. correct?
[03:19] <evilnick> tvih-: This could be where I'm going wrong then - I've licked on the network symbol at the top right of the screen and have "Wired Network - Auto eth0" then "Wireless Networks" and no options to pick?
[03:19] <mint3> ive taken off the cable for ethernet
[03:19] <evilnick> tvih-: s/licked/clicked/
[03:19] <gigabites2> FernandoF: You need to choose a specific nvidia driver
[03:19] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177
[03:19] <mint3> gigabites2, , i am trying only to use the wireless
[03:19] <clearscreen> that's the latest driver for intrepid if I'm not mistaken
[03:20] <tvih-> evilnick: does it say anything at all under wireless? osomething about not being managed/controlled?
[03:20] <gigabites2> mint3: Yes, I understand. The lines are there for the ethernet though. I'd recommend ndiswrapper & using the windows driver for you wireless card
[03:20] <FernandoF> clearscreen: done
[03:20] <mint3> gigabites2,  - how can i manage that
[03:20] <clearscreen> ok, now you can either use dpkg to reconfigure xorg, but it always gives me trouble
[03:20] <evilnick> tvih-: Nothing at all.
[03:20] <tacosarecool> why alpha?
[03:20] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:20] <gigabites2> mint3: sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 ndisgtk
[03:20] <quantumkenny> All: where can I find a driver for a Dell AIO 924 printer for Ubuntu 8.10?
[03:20] <FernandoF> clearscreen:works fine but just lets behind a long list of packages that are proposed for removal
[03:21] <clearscreen> yeah that's allright, we'll clean those up later
[03:21] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:21] <tvih-> evilnick: which method are you using for your driver now btw? madwifi, ndiswrapper or something else?
[03:21] <evilnick> tvih-: I have Wireless Networks as if it's a heading and then a divider then VPN Connections
[03:21] <gigabites2> quantumkenny: If it's not listed in cups, you're probably SOL
[03:21] <tacosarecool> search for Dell AIO 924 in synaptic
[03:21] <quantumkenny> I am connecting to it via the smb protocol/windows share
[03:21] <quantumkenny> is this the same?
[03:22] <Barridus> how do i blacklist a module
[03:22] <evilnick> tvih-: Am I supposed to use madwifi? I was hoping that it'd work out of the box?
[03:22] <tacosarecool> you can evilnick
[03:22] <gigabites2> Barridus: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[03:22] <FernandoF> clearscreen: got a emty screen
[03:22] <tacosarecool> evilnick your on 8.10 right
[03:22] <FernandoF> clearscreen: to edit
[03:22] <tvih-> evilnick: well, most people had to use it with pre-.28 kernels from what I read
[03:22] <gigabites2> FernandoF: /etc/X11/Xorg.conf
[03:22] <clearscreen> What does it say at the top?
[03:22] <clearscreen> gigabites2: it's xorg.conf for me
[03:23] <gigabites2> Oh, sorry.
[03:23] <Barridus> gigabites2: thank you, i'll give it a shot
[03:23] <evilnick> tacosarecool: yes sir - 8.10 64-bit
[03:23] <FernandoF> clearscreen: GNU nano 2.0.7
[03:23] <clearscreen> FernandoF: to the right of that?
[03:23] <clearscreen> what's the filename?
[03:23] <FernandoF> clearscreen:Fcheiro(file) /etc/xorg.conf
[03:23] <mint3> ok what now that i have installed ndiswrapper, gigabites2  ?
[03:23] <evilnick> I'll add madwifi and see if that works
[03:23] <clearscreen> I said /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:23] <clearscreen> not /etc/xorg.conf :P
[03:23] <tacosarecool> you connected wirelessly before on other computers right?
[03:24] <clearscreen> FernandoF: press CTRL+x
[03:24] <Barridus> gigabites2: that file is empty, is that normal?
[03:24] <gigabites2> mint3: Install your windows driver
[03:24] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:24] <evilnick> tacosarecool: Yes
[03:24] <gigabites2> Barridus: No, there should be a list blacklisted. That's strange.
[03:24] <mint3> how do i do that , via ndiswrapper? can i do it on terminal or somwhere where i can click
[03:24] <FernandoF> clearscreen: ok now
[03:24] <tacosarecool> ok what laptop are you on?
[03:24] <quantumkenny> gigabites2, tacosarecool, thanks.
[03:24] <evilnick> tacosarecool: I'm connected right now on my Windows laptop (that's where I'm typing from)
[03:24] <gigabites2> You can use the Windows Wireless Drivers gui under system to do it
[03:24] <clearscreen> FernandoF:  now find where it says Driver "nv" and change it to Driver "nvidia"
[03:25] <gigabites2> mint3: You can use the Windows Wireless Drivers gui under system to do it
[03:25] <evilnick> tacosarecool: My Ubuntu one is an Asus N50Vn
[03:25] <clearscreen> FernandoF: after you change it, CTRL+O and then CTRL+W
[03:25] <gigabites2> Barridus: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[03:25] <mint3> gigabites2,  - i dont see it there
[03:25] <gigabites2> Barridus: Are you sure you used the correct file?
[03:25] <mint3> i dont see "windows wireless drivers" under "system"
[03:25] <clearscreen> FernandoF: after you change it, CTRL+O and then CTRL+X (sorry not CTRL+W)
[03:26] <gigabites2> mint3: in the terminal, type ndiswrapper -l
[03:26] <mint3> it says ndisweapper-utils-1.9 not installed
[03:26] <tacosarecool> evilnick
[03:26] <gigabites2> mint3: apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[03:26] <tacosarecool> let me privatley talk to you
[03:26] <tacosarecool> I think I got a solution
[03:26] <evilnick> tacosarecool: Sure
[03:26] <FernandoF> clearscreen:i do not see nv
[03:27] <gigabites2> FernandoF: He has the default xorg.conf.
[03:27] <mint3> gigabites2,  - ok done that
[03:27] <gigabites2> mint3: try ndiswrapper -l again
[03:27] <n2diy> can anyone recommend a paint program for a four year old?
[03:27] <methods> why doesn't alt+ctrl+[-+] work for changing screen resolution ?
[03:27] <mint3> yeah this time it does not moan, gigabites2
[03:27] <hanasaki> how can I get past this to play DVDs?
[03:27] <hanasaki> libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 4.1.3
[03:27] <hanasaki> libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.
[03:27] <clearscreen> gigabites2: surely he must have a Driver entry with "nv" in his xorg.conf if it explicitly fails to load that module
[03:27] <FernandoF> clearscreen: word Driver not found after ctrl w
[03:28] <gigabites2> n2diy: gpaint or xpaint
[03:28] <clearscreen> FernandoF: try to find "Device"
[03:28] <gigabites2> clearscreen: Very true. :P But if it automagically creates xorg.conf?
[03:28] <TragicManner> I have a computer I access remotely and it is booted into Windows which has an Ubuntu partition. I installed support for ext2/ext3 formatted drives, so I can see my Ubuntu partition, and I have edited GRUB to make the computer boot into Ubuntu the next time it restarts. I just need to make sure Remote Desktop is turned on. Is there a config file I can check for this?
[03:28] <n2diy> gigabites2: thanks.
[03:28] <FernandoF> clearscreen: not found nv in this file
[03:28] <ChotaZ> how do i install flash player 10 for 64b linux?
[03:28] <gigabites2> mint3: Ok, then try system->administration->Windows Wireless Drivers
[03:29] <FernandoF> th file listed is /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:29] <clearscreen> FernandoF: alright, let's try it differently :P
[03:29] <clearscreen> FernandoF: CTRL+X
[03:29] <mint3> its not in the list gigabites2
[03:29] <ChotaZ> how do i install flash player 10 for 64b linux?
[03:29] <ChotaZ> how do i install flash player 10 for 64b linux?
[03:29] <gigabites2> ChotaZ: You can download a development version from the official adobe site. There is no 64-bit official release version
[03:29] <ChotaZ> sorry*
[03:29] <FloodBot2> ChotaZ: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:29] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg
[03:30] <gigabites2> clearscreen: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:30] <mint3> gigabites2, - its not there
[03:30] <gigabites2> mint3: Ok, well do you have the driver?
[03:30] <clearscreen> FernandoF: do what gigabites2 said :D
[03:30] <araujo_> is posible and safe to increase the tx-power in my wireless card?
[03:30] <ChotaZ> gigabites2: how do i remove the previous isntallation i have of flash player 10?
[03:30] <J_Litewski> is there any way to have grub run gparted?
[03:30] <mint3> no i just freshly installed ubuntu on this new partitioned hdd
[03:31] <FernandoF> clearscreen: do you mean to try tofind Device?
[03:31] <clearscreen> FernandoF: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:31] <gigabites2> ChotaZ: apt-get purge adobe-flashplugin
[03:31] <gigabites2> mint3: You need access to the driver
[03:31] <halycon> Hi everyone! I am just wondering how to switch my java configuration so that it uses Sun Java
[03:32] <gigabites2> halycon: Remove openjdk & install sun java?
[03:32] <FernandoF> clearscreen: i am having a graphics step by step configuration
[03:32] <fserve> Why canonical is making a http://start.ubuntu.com/9.04/ more uggly then http://start.ubuntu.com/8.04/ ?
[03:32] <halycon> gigabites2, I tried using that update-java-alternatives but I dont know if it switched to using sun or not
[03:32] <clearscreen> FernandoF: yep that's supposed to happen
[03:32] <gigabites2> halycon: Do you just want to switch it for your browser? Or across the whole system?
[03:33] <halycon> gigabites2, the whole system
[03:33] <clearscreen> FernandoF: you can press enter for most options, default option option is usually the correct one
[03:33] <clearscreen> FernandoF: just make sure you select "nvidia" when you get to the screen where you can select a driver
[03:33] <gigabites2> halycon: I don't have experience doing that, but in my opinion, it should be as simple as uninstalling openjdk & then installing sun java
[03:33] <little> FernandoF: Which Ubuntu release are you using?
[03:33] <ChotaZ> gigabites2: can ya help me find that 64 bits version?
[03:33] <halycon> I am using Eclipe and it doesn't work with any other thing except for Sun Java
[03:33] <FernandoF> clearscreen: not this option
[03:34] <tritium> halycon: with update-alternatives
[03:34] <FernandoF> little 8.10
[03:34] <gigabites2> tritium: He apparently tried that.
[03:34] <FernandoF> it ends on keybord selecton
[03:34] <gigabites2> ChotaZ: You can also use a plugin wrapper.. hold on a second
[03:34] <tritium> gigabites2, halycon: there are multiple java-related alternatives
[03:34] <mint3> how will i find the driver, gigabites2  ?
