[04:57] <mooky> m_0_r_0_n then he's screwed. If he doesn't know what partition his OS is on and doesn't know how to find out, a re-install will be a good learning experience for him
[04:57] <tuxtheslacker> in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail.
[04:57] <tuxtheslacker>  where do I get that?
[04:57] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: But i get these errors ONLY if i try to install Live CD..
[04:57] <dFense> Stevo2: ok, have you installed network-manager?
[04:57] <Jack_Sparrow> DualC: is that a gforce4 controller in your pc
[04:58] <SpComb> m_0_r_0_n: if not, boot up a livecd and do a fdisk -l on his hard drive and see if you can find out what the partitions are from their sizes. You can also just mount them all and take a quick look inside
[04:58] <dxy> i cant find the hardware support in the official website, does ubuntu support USR serial modem?

[04:58] <mooky> sorry
[04:58] <Stevo2> dfense> that's what i'm using now..  it came with the ubuntu install.  but i tried using wifi radar, i used wpa-supplicant and ndiswrapper, so if it's getting mixed signals between those apps, i don't know..
[04:58] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: nope i got an ATI 9800 Pro.
[04:59] <mrbrdo> how can i figure out which driver my USB wlan card is currently using (on my machine, not in general). it's supposed to use prism54, but that module is not loaded, even though the card works :(
[04:59] <Stevo2> dfense> i removed wifi radar tho.  just using network-manager-gnome now
[04:59] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: i get much futher if i use Txt install....
[04:59] <Jack_Sparrow> DualC: That is the video card not the controller chipset, but that is ok... When you run livecd you get to a menu that says start or install Ubuntu... have you done the cd self test for errors.?
[05:00] <erUSUL> ofer: well if you really must you can give write perms with chmod +w dir
[05:00] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: yes i have .. and its ok...

[05:00] <mrbrdo> someone plz

[05:01] <SpComb> take a look and see if you can find anything googleable
[05:01] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: If i do a txt install.. i can partition my linux partitions and install Ubuntu.. but only to the GRUB install..

[05:02] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: NP....

[05:03] <alessio> hi
[05:03] <Jack_Sparrow> DualC: HAve you tried leaving unallocated space and having the install program use all unallocated spacve without manual partitioning
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> mrbrdo: ndiswrapper comes to mind
[05:04] <alessio> can anybody tell me how i can contact an ubuntu's pr?

[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> DualC: No idea... what does your bios show for your sata access?
[05:09] <Gilnim> #join #ati
[05:10] <MystaMax> does "./" mean current directory???
[05:10] <erUSUL> MystaMax: yes
[05:10] <MystaMax> erUSUL, thanks
[05:10] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: the SATA bios u mean, it doesent show much information at all im sorry..

[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> DualC: Did you use the seagate utility to install your drive?
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> DualC: It uses a boot sector translator..
[05:12] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: i have an IBM drive..
[05:12] <Jack_Sparrow> DualC: The link you gave me was for a seagate barracuda drive
[05:12] <kabturek> heelo

[05:13] <kabturek> i have problem with installin kubuntu desktop
[05:13] <kabturek> the dependencies are wrong
[05:13] <BD> I'm having problems booting from my cd
[05:13] <kabturek> i must the kde repositories for it to install
[05:13] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: Sure, but i got similar . outputs...
[05:13] <kabturek> *add
[05:13] <BD> it loads "essential drivers" then nothing happends
[05:13] <Jack_Sparrow> DualC: You are on your own sorry..
[05:14] <BD> at memtest, there are lots of faults about 35% into it
[05:14] <DualC> Jack_Sparrow: Hehe, thanks anyway..
[05:14] <erUSUL> BD: you have answered yourself then; you have faulty memory
[05:15] <orbin> kabturek: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org ... pastebin the command you're using, and the resulting error output
[05:15] <BD> :S
[05:15] <BD> gah
[05:15] <BD> seems like my whole computer is falling apart
[05:15] <Daniel92> Can someone talk me through partitioning?
[05:15] <BD> how come windows runs?
[05:15] <AidyMole> hey anyone know how I can change vnc (vino) settings without X (through ssh)? somehow I can't vnc in to my comp
[05:16] <quiet> make a seperate / /var and swap partition, and you'll be fine...  make /var at least 2-3 GB, depending on what you're doing.
[05:16] <orbin> Daniel92: what setup do you have?
[05:16] <Daniel92> So can anyone help me install ubuntu an the partitions?
[05:17] <quiet> Daniel92, explain your system specs and probably.
[05:17] <orbin> quiet: why's /var important?  i usually only have /home seperate to /
[05:17] <Daniel92> System specs as in? everything in it?
[05:17] <TyggerBob> I don't suppose anyone here's using a PCMCIA prism2 card with Ubuntu, eh?
[05:17] <quiet> orbin, because /var is the only fileystem that fragments. So if you have /var into /, then your whole system will slow over time.
[05:18] <TyggerBob> I have an SMC2532w-b that I can't get to work and was wondering if anyone else has overcome the problems I'm having.
[05:18] <Daniel92> amd sempron 2ghz, 80gb master harddrive that is full, a 180gb slave harddrive that has 140gb free, a nvidia geforce 7800gs
[05:18] <kabturek> orbin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23890
[05:18] <Daniel92> 512mb of ram
[05:18] <Daniel92> any more ?
[05:18] <orbin> Daniel92: help me is kind of general.  how bout you tell us what problems you're having w/ it?
[05:18] <Daniel92> Oh
[05:18] <Daniel92> well
[05:18] <Dexter_F> hi
[05:18] <Daniel92> I don't know how to partition
[05:18] <lupine_85> TyggerBob: should work out of the box
[05:18] <TyggerBob> for me, wlan0 never shows up.. errors are as follows: http://pastebin.ca/175149
[05:18] <Daniel92> "New partition size:" I want my linux to be 40gb
[05:18] <TyggerBob> lupine_85, so I would have thought
[05:18] <Gilnim> !fglrx
[05:18] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:19] <Dexter_F> trying to mount an smb share I get in dmesg: smbfs: mount_data version<PHONE_NUMBER> is not supported
[05:19] <orbin> quiet: oh, i thought ext3 was non-fragmenting?  why would directories matter?
[05:19] <TyggerBob> works on every other distro I've tried
[05:19] <Dexter_F> the file server is samba3.0.23 on slackware
[05:19] <orbin> kabads: looking
[05:19] <kabturek> orbin: i have ubuntu dapper with all the standard repos and upgraded the repos a minute ago
[05:19] <lupine_85> TyggerBob: is this dapper?
[05:19] <Daniel92> quiet: when I set my partition to 23% (43.2gb) it doesn't let me install it
[05:20] <ccooke> Hum. Anyone here know about any clock scaling issues with Core 2 Duo (mobile) processors?
[05:20] <quiet> orbin, it's not that ext3 doesn't fragment, it's the way files are written... the logs in /var are the only files that are physically appended to. if you edit, resave a document it removes the old and rewrites the new, rather than simply updating it.
[05:20] <TyggerBob> lupine_85, yes
[05:20] <lupine_85> hmmm... interrupt conflict? I'm not sure TBH :(
[05:20] <orbin> kabads: hmm, i'm having trouble looking for something i recognise in the polish...maybe #ubuntu-pl can help better
[05:21] <Daniel92> quiet: when I set my partition to 23% (43.2gb) it doesn't lte me install it, it says not enough space
[05:21] <TyggerBob> Sokay.. thanks anyway, lupine_85
[05:21] <quiet> Daniel92, you probably haven't actually formatted... after you repartition your drive you must reboot to the hard drive partitions can be re-read.
[05:21] <orbin> quiet: oh, i see.  guess i need to do some reading.
[05:22] <Daniel92> I don't want to format it though.
[05:22] <Daniel92> anyway to install ubuntu without reformating ?
[05:22] <Daniel92> and partition it to 40gb of my harddrive?
[05:23] <Daniel92> Is there?
[05:24] <redkrieg> yes, the livecd installer has a great interface for that, Daniel92
[05:24] <redkrieg> give it a shot
[05:24] <Daniel92> What's that?
[05:24] <redkrieg> do you have a livecd for dapper?
[05:24] <quiet> orbin, this may be of some help, but maybe not:  http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/articles/partitioning-p2.xml?style=printable
[05:25] <Daniel92> Not that I know off
[05:25] <redkrieg> Daniel92: how were you planning to install?
[05:25] <orbin> Daniel92: so you want to insall on the slave drive.  how is it formatted?  one big ntfs ipartition?
[05:25] <Daniel92> I think so
[05:26] <orbin> redkrieg: he has: 80gb master harddrive that is full, a 180gb slave harddrive that has 140gb free ...he wants his linux install to be 40g
[05:26] <Daniel92> Without reformatting
[05:26] <orbin> Daniel92: you'll need to resize the partition to make some free space
[05:26] <Daniel92> How do I do that?
[05:26] <orbin> Daniel92: then you can install ubuntu into that free space
[05:26] <Daniel92> How ?
[05:27] <redkrieg> Daniel92 that's the default option when you use the installer from the livecd.  get the install cd for dapper from www.ubuntu.com and follow the instructions to burn the iso to a disk
[05:27] <Daniel92> I'm on ubuntu at the moment
[05:27] <redkrieg> running from cd?
[05:27] <Daniel92> Yes
[05:27] <redkrieg> the install icon on the desktop, double click it
[05:27] <Daniel92> Ok
[05:27] <Daniel92> then ?
[05:28] <Daniel92> I set it all up till the partition bit
[05:28] <redkrieg> answer questions til it asks where you want to install
[05:28] <Daniel92> then do what ?
[05:28] <Daniel92> click /dev/hdb: IDE1 slave ?
[05:28] <timtim> timtim22
[05:28] <redkrieg> yeah, find the one whose size matches the drive you want to put it on
[05:29] <timtim> timtt
[05:29] <redkrieg> and there should be a slider bar to resize the partition
[05:29] <timtim> timtim2222
[05:29] <Daniel92> I want me linux size of the partition to be 40gb
[05:29] <Daniel92> my*
[05:29] <Daniel92> so I move it down to 40gb?
[05:29] <Jaak_> how do i set a certain key to do a certain command?
[05:30] <redkrieg> yeah, its a percentage slider, so if the disk is 80gb, set it to 50%
[05:30] <Daniel92> it's 203.9
[05:30] <kabturek> orbin: any ideas why kubuntu-desktop wn't install without secial repos  - it should  according to wiki
[05:30] <Daniel92> so I'll set it to 23% ?
[05:30] <orbin> kabturek: i can't read polish so i can't really understand the errors.  did you try asking in #ubuntu-pl?
[05:30] <redkrieg> I think that's right.  make sure you have enough free space on the disk to resize though, or you'll lose data
[05:31] <AndroidData> ?
[05:31] <AndroidData> you'll lose me? never!
[05:31] <orbin> Daniel92: hang on, i don't think you should do 23%
[05:31] <gnomefreak> kabturek: make sure the cdrom repo is # out
[05:31] <nox-Hand> Hey
[05:31] <Daniel92> Whyn ot?
[05:31] <Daniel92> not*
[05:31] <orbin> Daniel92: that would shrink it down to 23% of 200gb
[05:31] <gnomefreak> !info kubuntu-desktop
[05:31] <Daniel92> and I just clicked next..
[05:31] <ubotu> kubuntu-desktop: Kubuntu desktop system. In component main, is optional. Version 0.86 (dapper), package size 11 kB, installed size 40 kB
[05:31] <Daniel92> Fuck ?
[05:31] <nox-Hand> This might sound like an odd thing to do, but how can I make it so when the
[05:31] <bmcfarli> Hey guys anyone else have trouble with the fglrx drivers?
[05:31] <nox-Hand> mozilla command is run, it runs firefox instead?
[05:31] <gnomefreak> Daniel92: please watch your language
[05:31] <Daniel92> ok what do I do then?
[05:31] <orbin> Daniel92: i don't think you're at partitioning yet...can you click back?
[05:32] <Paddy_EIRE> How do i remove all Xgl/Compiz Stuffs from my comp
[05:32] <nox-Hand> gnomefreak: Ubuntu
[05:32] <Daniel92> I aborted
[05:32] <Daniel92> one sec I'll get back to it
[05:32] <redkrieg> make it 78% ?
[05:32] <Daniel92> Do I make it 78%?
[05:32] <nox-Hand> gnomefreak: Ubuntus gnome is slow on my sisters PC. 1,5 ghtz, 256 ram. Can I speed it up?*
[05:32] <galenus> just wanna try some emoticons
[05:32] <galenus> :-)
[05:32] <galenus> ;-)
[05:32] <gnomefreak> nox-Hand: you want mozilla to run firefox?
[05:32] <galenus> they work
[05:32] <Neo8750> nox-Hand: add ram =) =P
[05:33] <galenus> :d
[05:33] <redkrieg> Paddy_EIRE: you'll need to uninstall all the packages and revert to the old versions of config files you modified during install
[05:33] <galenus> great
[05:33] <galenus> have nice day
[05:33] <galenus> cu
[05:33] <orbin> Daniel92: yes i think so.  that'd shrink it down to ~150, giving you your 40gb free space
[05:33] <nox-Hand> Neo8750: lol
[05:33] <redkrieg> Paddy_EIRE: find the tutorial you used to install and do it in reverse
[05:33] <Daniel92> rebooting cya
 oh, i cant even begin to remember what method/s i used to install and setup with
[05:33] <nox-Hand> gnomefreak: Well, yeah. aMSN and lots of apps run mozilla - its a quick fix. I dont ever want mozilla anyhow
[05:34] <kabturek> orbin: yes - the have suggested to add the reppos ;) which generaly is an option but it shouldn't be necessay
[05:34] <Thug_P> wzup
[05:34] <redkrieg> Paddy_EIRE then you can try going to wiki.compiz.net and finding an install tutorial there to un-follow
[05:34] <kabturek> orbin the error says :
[05:34] <redkrieg> Paddy_EIRE: work from the bottom up ;)
[05:35] <orbin> kabturek: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[05:35] <gnomefreak> kabturek: please post your sources.list file on pastebin
[05:35] <Flosoft> hey
[05:35] <kabturek> orbin: Becouse you ordered just one operation ,it's very probable that the package can't be installed and you should report the error
[05:35] <kabturek> ok wait a sec
[05:35] <Flosoft> I want to access my network at home without any big problems
[05:35] <Flosoft> what can I do?
[05:35] <Neo8750> Flosoft: what you mean?
[05:35] <Flosoft> I thought of a Proxy?
[05:36] <Flosoft> like access internal adresses?
ok sounds like a learning experience,
[05:36] <gnomefreak> kabturek: you dont have right repo enabled or you have a wrong one enabled
[05:36] <AndroidData> how do I set my screen resolution to 16 bits? I'm using gnome
[05:37] <Neo8750> you mean you want to beable to access your home computer from a remote location?
[05:37] <Jaak_> what is .xstartup file for?
[05:37] <Neo8750> Jaak_: probly has to do with the start up of x
[05:37] <kabturek> gnomefreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23891
[05:37] <Flosoft> anyone?
[05:38] <caliban> erUSUL
[05:38] <phred> hi
[05:38] <Neo8750> Flosoft: you mean you want to beable to access your home computer from a remote location?
[05:38] <Jaak_> i have to make it according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MappingWindowsKey
[05:38] <Flosoft> Neo8750: yes
[05:38] <caliban> erUSUL: are u there?
[05:38] <orbin> Android: change the defaultdepth line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf then restart X
[05:38] <Neo8750> Flosoft: do you want a gui or do you want a cli ?
[05:38] <Flosoft> Neo8750: and not only the one Linux Server, but also other pcs in the home network
[05:38] <phred> does anyone else experience very slow hibernation with recent kernels?
[05:38] <Flosoft> Neo8750: GUI is always nice
[05:39] <Flosoft> Neo8750: I want to access webservers at home like my router etc.
[05:39] <caliban> anyone know this error? mount: block device /dev/hdd is write-protected, mounting read-only
[05:39] <kabturek> gnomefreak: i know that adding kde repos get's rid of the problem but it should work without it  (i.e. it worked without it sometime ago)
[05:40] <gnomefreak> kabturek: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[05:40] <AndroidData> how do I restart the X server? :\
[05:40] <Neo8750> Flosoft: well you need to be more specific on what ya mean there because you could do it all through ssh (like telnet but better) and then have a cli to work with and you could mount shares through the command line then have access to all those file
[05:40] <kabturek> gnomefreak: dapper
[05:40] <orbin> AndroidData: ctrl+alt+backspace should do it
[05:40] <Flosoft> Neo8750: can I PM you?
[05:40] <Thug_P> gnomefreak what\s up
[05:40] <gnomefreak> kabturek: doe sthe errors say something about depends?
[05:40] <gnomefreak> hi Thug_P
[05:40] <Neo8750> or you could try to confiure x to work remotely or do a vnc setup
[05:40] <dantolini> hello everybody.... i'm getting desperate here, since i find nowhere a solution to solve my "access beyond device"-problem..if anyone already has heard or experienced already about this "acces beyond end of device"-thing... please answer me! :D

[05:48] <gnomefreak> kabturek: im beting they started to port kde3.5.3 to dapper if you comment out your backports repo it should work also
[05:48] <Empty> Hey guys... I have a problem on my laptop I cannot lick. At random times ( but while using it- if left alone it does do this) the screen blacks out and will not come back

[06:00] <Daniel92> Ok guys
[06:01] <Daniel92> The partitions, what do I set it too?
[06:01] <caliban> gazzill: waht?
[06:01] <gazzill> nvm i like u ;)
[06:01] <kismet_> I'm using a very vanilla Ubuntu install, and the Gnome buttons will frequently have a strange background color (red, pink, etc) until I hover over it, then it corrects itself. Any ideas?
[06:02] <caliban> grazzill: nvm?
[06:02] <gazzill> nevermind :p
[06:02] <caliban> gazzill: :(
[06:02] <Daniel92> quiet
[06:03] <quiet> Daniel92, what's up?
[06:03] <Daniel92> the partition
[06:03] <Daniel92> do I set it to 23% or 83%?
[06:03] <bmcfarli> hey guys i am having trouble accessing harddrives. It says I dont have proper permission. Any ideas?
[06:03] <qmf> is there a way to turn off the systemwide tooltips in dapper?
[06:03] <quiet> Daniel92, well, how much do you want to use?
[06:04] <surface> bmcfarli:  which harddrive?
[06:04] <Daniel92> I want linux/ubuntu to use 40gb and the rest for my windows os
[06:04] <surface> bmcfarli:  how u access?
[06:04] <jbu> hey guys, i'm a linux newb, does ubuntu have a gcc that comes with it?
[06:04] <quiet> Daniel92, and how big is the drive?
[06:04] <bmcfarli> its my master, second partion
[06:04] <surface> jbu: you can download it by just using synaptic
[06:04] <Daniel92> 203.9gb
[06:04] <quiet> jbu, install 'build-essentials' and it does.
[06:05] <bmcfarli> ubuntu is front partion, ntfs is second. windows is on the slave
[06:05] <kismet_> quiet: is that the apt-get package name?
[06:05] <gazzill> can i ask a link to deb packages again ? all i got is a apt-get src link
[06:05] <quiet> Daniel92, 40 GB is 20% of 200
[06:05] <gazzill> i don't got apt-get !
[06:05] <quiet> kismet_, for what?
[06:05] <Daniel92> So I set it to 20%?
[06:05] <quiet> EVERYONE has apt-get
[06:06] <Daniel92> and that'll be linux, right? not my windows?
[06:06] <quiet> Daniel92, yeah, that's fine.
[06:06] <kismet_> quiet: for gcc and g++ and so on, is that all in 'build-essentials'?
[06:06] <bmcfarli> you need proper english....
[06:06] <Daniel92> Positive? because I really don't want to screw this up
[06:06] <quiet> kismet_, yes.
[06:06] <quiet> kismet_, build-essential *    (no 's')
[06:06] <quiet> i think?
[06:06] <quiet> *shrug*
[06:07] <Daniel92> quiet: "Failed to create enouhg space for installation"
[06:07] <Daniel92> enough*
[06:07] <kismet_> quiet: you are correct sir! sweet
[06:07] <surface> bmcfarli:  try to run mount and see ur partition is there or not
[06:07] <quiet> *sigh*  you're definitely doing something wrong here...  I don't dual boot so I can't be of much help in this part. sorry. :(
[06:08] <kismet_> Daniel, i dual boot, what are you doing??? What partitioner are you using?
[06:08] <romrom> hi all
[06:08] <Daniel92> the one that came with ubuntu
[06:08] <surface> bmcfarli:  it should be looks like /dev/hda1 or something
[06:08] <Daniel92> I'm trying to instill ubuntu
[06:08] <quiet> kismet_, he's on the live cd... trying to shrink is windows partition to install ubuntu.
[06:08] <kismet_> The installer partitioner? Or an application inside the install?
[06:08] <kismet_> oooh
[06:08] <quiet> in the installer, i believe.
[06:08] <qmf> sorry to repeat but is it possible to remove tooltips?
[06:08] <romrom> is there a way to manually install an ubuntu (eg. from an old livecd or other distrib) ?
[06:09] <quiet> romrom, there is an alternate install CD with the tex-based install.
[06:09] <quiet> it's on the same download page.. just down a little further.
[06:09] <Samuli^> I wouldn't use gparted to shrink ntfs or any partition for that matter.
[06:09] <romrom> i can't burn
[06:09] <Daniel92> kismet_:  what do I do?
[06:09] <quiet> romrom, oh, yo mean with debbootstrap?
[06:09] <romrom> i only have a breezy livecd
[06:09] <kismet_> Daniel92: in my experience, it's better to shrink your windows partition with a windows tool
[06:09] <Samuli^> better to use partition magic etc. for windows. gparted is really buggy with resize.
[06:09] <quiet> er...  debootstrap.   i don't think ubuntu supports that, but i dunno.
[06:09] <surface> partition magic should be easy
[06:10] <quiet> romrom, http://blog.nanorails.com/articles/2006/07/01/remote-ubuntu-dapper-drake-install
[06:10] <romrom> ok thanks :D
[06:10] <gazzill> can't find a deb
[06:10] <gazzill> libdvdcss/
[06:10] <bmcfarli> Surface: yeah, but it says i dont have permission to access that drive...is there a way to set my permission in shell?
[06:10] <kismet_> Yeah, Partition Magic makes it a snap, *if* you have it
[06:10] <Daniel92> Nope.
[06:10] <sharperguy> was there a bug in the last kernal update
[06:10] <kismet_> There are freeware and shareware partitioners for windows also
[06:11] <Samuli^> Daniel92, really. DON'T use gparted (the one on live-cd) for resizing. You could easily end up with skewed partition.
 in kde yes
[06:11] <qmf> not in gnome?
[06:11] <surface> bmcfarli:  then u need sudo
[06:11] <sharperguy> because im getting another one, and I just updated the other day
[06:11] <quiet> use the gparted livecd.
[06:11] <bmcfarli> i know sudo
[06:11] <surface> bmcfarli:  sudo -i and type ur password
[06:11] <bmcfarli> ok
[06:11] <quiet> i've heard it works great... never used it myself.
[06:11] <sharperguy> cant wait until edgy clears your menu.lst
[06:11] <bmcfarli> ok. i am in root now
[06:11] <snowblink> sharperguy, looks like a new security update which is annoying as I've just restarted a bunch of servers
[06:12] <sharperguy> lol
[06:12] <Samuli^> quiet, I've tried resizing with gparted few times and I always ended up with non-working partition and everything lost on that.
[06:12] <quiet> Samuli^, with the most recent gparted livecd?
[06:13] <Samuli^> quiet, dapper drake live.
[06:13] <quiet> Samuli^, not what i was talking about.
[06:13] <quiet> http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[06:13] <Samuli^> quiet, there's a gparted live-cd? Anyways. I wouldn't trust that program for resizing.
[06:15] <quiet> Samuli^, i'll keep that in mind. thanks. Like I said, I've never used it. But i've had a couple people tell me it resized their NTFS without an issue.
[06:15] <ootput> how do i prevent ubuntu setting my displays to standby (power saving mode) when viewing full-screen movies (via mplayer?)
[06:16] <Empty> My laptop is trandomly blanking screen, and will not ever wake up. Seems to only hapopen when I am using it... Anyone have any idea?
[06:17] <kvark> i really want to start using the command line console for actual work, but it uses a font that is too hard/slow to read, there is no way i can work for hours on that font :(
[06:17] <quiet> ootput, the gnome power manager
[06:17] <kvark> i've been trying all day to convert a good ttf font to a psf font for the console but just can't figure it out
[06:17] <quiet> under preferences.
[06:17] <ootput> use fixed-utf8, or terminus
[06:17] <ootput> the latter is great for coding
[06:17] <kvark> and i've been looking for psf fonts but can't find any
[06:18] <quiet> how do you change the console font?
[06:18] <Empty> It's something systemic as I created a new user, logged in, and eventually got this same crash
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> quiet,  you mean the CONSOLE as in not the X 'terminal window' ?
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> :)
[06:18] <quiet> Dr_Willis, yes.
[06:18] <kvark> consolechars --font=/path/to/font.psf
[06:18] <kvark> ootput, where can I get those fonts?
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> quiet,  theres a command to do it.  but finding a decent font is the issue
[06:18] <mrbrdo> how to download package source, change something and install it as normal package?
[06:19] <jbu> if i'm trying to install gcc, would a binary for gfortran be ok?
[06:19] <mrbrdo> i think it should be possible with apt-get and dpkg somehow
[06:19] <snowblink> mrbrdo, apt-get source
[06:19] <ootput> kvark: terminus is in repos, fixed-utf8 should be easy to google
[06:20] <ootput> kvark: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs-fonts.html
[06:21] <astro> hi, i have a little problem, .,  i cant find the nat file-.-.-. where is the default location
[06:21] <mrbrdo> snowblink - how do i make it into a package again, after i change it tho? and where is the source code located (/usr/src?)
[06:21] <mrbrdo> and install that package..
[06:21] <AviaX> hi
[06:21] <kvark> ootput thank you so much, finally some good fonts to get for the console :D
[06:21] <AviaX> after a systemcrash i reinstalled my ubuntuserver
[06:22] <ootput> terminus-console is what i use
[06:22] <AviaX> installation went fine, but after it my computer cant boot anymore, boot device failure
[06:22] <ootput> afaik, it's the standard for edgy
[06:22] <snowblink> mrbrdo, http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[06:23] <mrbrdo> thx
[06:23] <AviaX> i tried to boot in rescue mode from the installation cd an resinstalled grub with grub-install /dev/hda but it doesnt helped
[06:23] <crashd> is there any reason why the 'check for updates' menu item in ubuntu is greyed out?
[06:23] <Kill_X> ompaul, I'm ready to rumble ;)
[06:23] <AviaX> anybody has an idea what to do?
[06:23] <snowblink> crashd, firefox?
[06:24] <ompaul> Kill_X, msg me the nicks
[06:24] <ompaul> we shall sit back and watch the show :)
[06:25] <BD> Ubuntu failed to boot on my old memories as well as my new ones
[06:25] <kvark> hmm, there are many files named things like ter-v12n.psf.gz how do i figure out which of those files to use?
[06:25] <crashd> yeah, sorry
[06:25] <crashd> i just got home from work and my head isnt quite plugged in
[06:25] <AviaX> nobody can help with the bootproblems?
[06:26] <snowblink> crashd, you're running Ubuntu version of FF. It will only update for security.
[06:26] <crashd> oh
[06:26] <crashd> that's a pain
[06:26] <crashd> no matter, i need to install the 32bit jailed version anyway for flash-nonfree
[06:26] <mrbrdo> snowblink: wtf: "sh: dpkg-source: not found"
[06:26] <mrbrdo> nvm i think i got it
[06:27] <TheGateKeeper> AviaX: linux the only OS on your hard disk?
[06:27] <JohnFlux> how do i register a domain name?
[06:27] <briguyd> JohnFlux, you need to go to someone like godaddy.com for that
[06:27] <jbu> can someone help me, i'm a linux newb...i'm trying to install a gcc so that I can start compiling source
[06:27] <redkrieg> I'll paypal you a nickel not to use godaddy
[06:27] <jbu> i cant install anything right now
[06:27] <JohnFlux> briguyd: i just chose a domain name, give them an IP, and that's it?
[06:28] <cadet> JohnFlux: http://godaddy.com/ http://joker.com/
[06:28] <JohnFlux> redkrieg: what do you recommend?
[06:28] <AviaX> @TheGateKeeper yes only linux
[06:28] <andrei> hello. i have a maxtor 40gb hdd. is this hdparm tested performance good: Timing cached reads: 1392 MB in 2.00 seconds = 695.96 MB/sec and Timing buffered disk reads: 106 MB in 3.04 seconds = 34.82 MB/sec ? thanks!
[06:28] <redkrieg> JohnFlux: I'm going through 1and1.com right now, great hosts
[06:28] <TheGateKeeper> !grub > AviaX
[06:28] <JohnFlux> andrei: the only part that's interesting is the 34.82MB/sec
[06:28] <snowblink> !build-essential > jbu
[06:29] <JohnFlux> andrei: that's fairly okay
[06:29] <andrei> JohnFlux. ok
[06:29] <TheGateKeeper> AviaX: probable need to fix grub, read the PM
[06:29] <andrei> JohnFlux, thank you
[06:29] <comtech> hi, when I do emerge -uvDNa world it wants to downgrade cairo from 1.2.4 to 1.0.4 which ends up breaking a lot off stuff... but when I do emerge -uvNa world it doesn't... how can I figure out what's causing that and fix it?
[06:29] <briguyd> JohnFlux, do you want to host it yourself?
[06:29] <TyggerBob> anyone here use an SMC-2532w wireless card with hostap vice orinoco drivers?
[06:29] <JohnFlux> andrei: however for almost everything you do on the computer, the only thing that actually matters is the seek time
[06:29] <JohnFlux> briguyd: might as well
[06:29] <comtech> andrei, is that a 5400rpm?
[06:29] <JohnFlux> briguyd: unless someone else will host it for nearly nothing ;-)
[06:30] <andrei> comtech, 7200
[06:30] <astro> thanks
[06:30] <briguyd> JohnFlux, you'd have to pay for the domain name (usually by year, or month or whatever)
[06:30] <TheGateKeeper> commctrl_: running gentoo ? :-)
[06:30] <redkrieg> JohnFlux: What are you trying to host?
[06:30] <TheGateKeeper> commctrl_: sorry wrong person
[06:30] <briguyd> JohnFlux, then you have to go to someone else, because i havent hosted anything myself
[06:30] <ootput> comtech: wrong channel?
[06:30] <andrei> JohnFlux, comtech: ive begun to wonder when linuxdcpp did a very slow hash on my shares
[06:30] <JohnFlux> redkrieg: just some wedding photos etc ;-)
[06:31] <JohnFlux>  Timing buffered disk reads:  188 MB in  3.01 seconds =  62.45 MB/sec
[06:31] <TheGateKeeper> comtech: we running gentoo then :-)
[06:31] <comtech> oops :D
[06:31] <comtech> wrong channel
[06:31] <JohnFlux>  Timing buffered disk reads:   74 MB in  3.56 seconds =  20.76 MB/sec
[06:31] <ootput> emerge --you pee V.D.
[06:31] <JohnFlux>  Timing buffered disk reads:  166 MB in  3.02 seconds =  54.99 MB/sec
[06:31] <comtech> hi, when I do emerge -uvDNa world it wants to downgrade cairo from 1.2.4 to 1.0.4 which ends up breaking a lot off stuff... but when I do emerge -uvNa world it doesn't... how can I figure out what's causing that and fix it?
[06:31] <JohnFlux> andrei: that's 3 of my disks
[06:32] <AviaX> @TheGateKeeper I've already tried several thinks, booting in to rescue system, reinstalling grub
[06:32] <TheGateKeeper> comtech: need to wait till I get a bit more experience :-)
[06:32] <ootput> comtech: emerge --you pee V.D.
[06:32] <aFlag> hello
[06:32] <H080J03> how do you make it so gdm is your default display manger?
[06:32] <andrei> JohnFlux, i too have 56.51 MB/sec on my SATA drive
[06:32] <comtech> shoot sorry guys
[06:32] <AviaX> booting from rescue cd and knoppix chrooting in my system and doing grub-install and in grub-shell root (hd0,0) setup (hd0) nothing helped
[06:33] <comtech> Timing buffered disk reads:  124 MB in  3.02 seconds =  41.00 MB/sec
[06:33] <comtech> Timing buffered disk reads:  182 MB in  3.01 seconds =  60.44 MB/sec
[06:33] <aFlag> There's seem to have a broken dependency on my system:
[06:33] <aFlag> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gnome-applets:
[06:33] <aFlag>  gnome-applets depends on gnome-applets-data (= 2.14.3-0ubuntu1); however:
[06:33] <aFlag>   Version of gnome-applets-data on system is 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.
[06:33] <comtech> top is a 7200rpm ide seagate, bottom is a 7200rpm sata maxtor
[06:33] <aFlag> what should I do?
[06:33] <crashd> curses, ff32 doesn't want to work
[06:33] <andrei> JohnFlux, comtech, it seems i get ok values
[06:33] <TheGateKeeper> AviaX: had you tried running badblocks from a live CD, or looking /boot to see if it's damaged?
[06:34] <crashd> seems to just run the 64bit version ;\
[06:34] <comtech> andrei, yeah probably
[06:34] <andrei> comtech, JohnFlux thank you very much both
[06:34] <aFlag> How do I fix the broken dependency?
[06:35] <AviaX> no in knoppix complete drive is accesable, but didnt tried that, ill try it now
[06:35] <aFlag> :(
[06:35] <TheGateKeeper> AviaX: good luck
[06:36] <ootput> H080J03: vim /etc/X11/default-display-manager

[06:36] <ootput> H080J03: i'm not sure if there's an update-alternatives option for that, though
[06:36] <aFlag> force? Won't that broke things even more?
[06:36] <TheGateKeeper> AviaX: I don't either on my kubuntu install (wish I did)
[06:37] <piclez> hi, how can I find out my IP number please
[06:37] <synjet> aFlag: f is for "fix-broken"
[06:37] <AviaX> k
[06:37] <TheGateKeeper> AviaX: mine is in the main /root partition
[06:37] <Neo8750> piclez: ifconfig
[06:37] <piclez> yes! thanks Neo8750
[06:37] <AviaX> yes dito
[06:38] <TheGateKeeper> piclez: ifconfig will give you your machine ip address
[06:38] <piclez> thanks, and how to give my machine name?
[06:38] <TMT> Hi
[06:38] <AviaX> @TheGateKeeper Is there a way that we could talk in an extra window?
[06:39] <ootput> piclez: are you behind a router?
[06:39] <piclez> ootput: no ;0
[06:39] <TheGateKeeper> AviaX: see my PM?
[06:39] <piclez> ohmm.. I think yes
[06:40] <ootput> piclez: sudo ifconfig eth0 | grep 'inet addr'
[06:40] <AviaX> from ubotu?
[06:40] <ootput> piclez: which is it? :)
[06:40] <TheGateKeeper> AviaX: nope from me?
[06:40] <qmf> after upgrading from the ati driver to fglrx thing are looking very strange. i get this error:
[06:41] <piclez> ootput: just gives my IP.. how to know my machine name?
[06:41] <mrbrdo> how can i make APT-GET ignore a package (ie. never upgrade it - blacklist it or something - i want to retain my current version)
[06:41] <qmf> Error: unable to open display :0
[06:41] <qmf> when i do fglrxinfo
[06:41] <qmf> any ideas?
[06:41] <piclez> my Ubuntu is connecting to a Windows network
[06:41] <ootput> piclez: hostname?
[06:41] <ootput> piclez: I'm not sure what you're after
[06:41] <mrbrdo> anyone, how to blacklist a package for apt-get? plz
[06:42] <piclez> yah.. ootput: Im having another windows machine connecting with the same IP as my Ubuntu
[06:43] <ootput> piclez: this is at home?
[06:43] <ootput> piclez: are you using a switch instead of a router?
[06:43] <redkrieg> piclez: and are you using static ip's on either machine?
[06:44] <SurfnKid> guess what guys
[06:44] <shaver> hello everyone
[06:44] <SurfnKid> another friend just got ubuntu
[06:44] <SurfnKid> woohoo
[06:45] <Bonzodog> mrbrdo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[06:45] <SurfnKid> i convinced him
[06:45] <Bonzodog> look there, tells you how to 'pin' a pckage
[06:45] <piclez> ootput: at work!
[06:45] <mrbrdo> thx
[06:45] <kkaisare> SurfnKid: Impressive. I haven't had any luck in that regard.
[06:45] <shaver> im having a terrible time setting up my widescreen resolution, anybody have any experience on the subject?
[06:45] <Bonzodog> that will stop the package from upgrading or changing
[06:45] <piclez> I'm using dynamic IPs for Windows and static for Ubuntu
[06:45] <libertad0> look that http://www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com/christianubuntu/2006/09/ubuntu-christian-edition-features.html
[06:45] <piclez> redkrieg: thks
[06:45] <SurfnKid> kkaisare, haha, he uses unix so he needs a linux environment
[06:46] <SurfnKid> thats what probably helped too
[06:46] <shaver> i have looked on every single forum/support site, but haven't got anything that works
[06:46] <Bonzodog> shaver: you tried editing xorg.conf resolution lines?
[06:46] <shaver> yes
[06:46] <rbman> anybody got an faq as to how to  set up one machine to act as a gateway to another machine for access to the net using ubuntu?  I'd like to set this machine up as a proxy to my cable modem using dansguardian for my daughter's machine.  I've got two nics on this machine and one on hers.
[06:46] <kkaisare> SurfnKid: That explains a lot. FUD still rules the Real World.
[06:46] <Bonzodog> hrm..normally that should work
[06:46] <redkrieg> piclez: if you change to dynamic, that might fix it
[06:47] <ootput> piclez: and you have access to the router (as admin) then, i take it?
[06:47] <piclez> ok ;) tks.. how to get the mac address?
[06:47] <somethingelse> does anyone use nessus?
[06:47] <piclez> ootput: I have access to the router
[06:47] <ootput> piclez: ifconfig is handy, issue it at the commandline some time
[06:47] <shaver> i need a 1680x1050 resolution, editing the xorg.conf doesn't give methat option, so i have also tried using 915resolution, but that has only managed to give me a black screen that turns my monitor off ( i have a feeling its a sync error)
[06:47] <SurfnKid> kkaisare, exactly
[06:47] <piclez> ok tks guys
[06:47] <ootput> piclez: you should be able to do mac-filtering on it
[06:47] <quiet>  rbman http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370
[06:47] <synjet> shaver: if your res isnt in xorg.conf, manually add and see
[06:48] <piclez> ootput: nhmm sounds complicated?!
[06:48] <Bonzodog> yes, change the first resolution in the correct bit mode
[06:48] <ootput> piclez: not if you do your research ;)
[06:48] <shaver> it is in the xorg.conf, under every single depth, i did add 1600x1200, and that kind of works, but the 1680x1050 does not
[06:48] <Bonzodog> which would be 24
[06:48] <Bonzodog> it might be that the X driver it's suning might not be able to handle the res
[06:49] <kaosx> google adding a "line mode" to your xorg.conf
[06:49] <Bonzodog> using, even
[06:49] <ootput> Bonnuit
[06:49] <piclez> ootput: Ok ;)
[06:49] <Bonzodog> what graphics card do you have?
[06:49] <kkaisare> SurfnKid: Interestingly though, I find Ubuntu installations ridiculously simple now - definitely as easy as, if not easier than, Windows XP Professional Edition.
[06:49] <shaver> its an itel 845g
[06:50] <quiet> kkaisare, easier, since it asks less questions. :D
[06:50] <Bonzodog> shaver; what driver is X using to run?
[06:50] <shaver> i810
[06:50] <kaosx> Weird problem Im having with sound..sounds works when booting up I hear the goofy little drums when gdm pops up...they just arent working for this particular user. I tried doing "chmod 666 /dev/dsp*" with no luck either
[06:50] <kaosx> any ideas?
[06:50] <kkaisare> SurfnKid: And Synaptic makes getting new applications a matter of standard operating procedure.
[06:50] <SurfnKid> kkaisare, yeah, now im not afraid of making a linux partition, i was a wreck when it came to one before
[06:50] <Bonzodog> hrm...
[06:50] <sureshot> hey can someone email me a xconfig file show the config for 2 monitors need an example
[06:50] <SurfnKid> kkaisare, yep
[06:50] <zaggynl> !dvd
[06:50] <Bonzodog> that might well be the problem...a driver limitation
[06:50] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html. Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[06:51] <quiet> kaosx, add the user to the audio group
[06:51] <SurfnKid> kkaisare, thats what i told my friend, and XGL well... enough said :)
[06:51] <synjet> hi, anybody have any idea on any gnome app that enables having window thumbnails on the desktop?
[06:51] <kaosx> quiet: the user is a member of the admin group
[06:51] <Bonzodog> look up intel 845g cards and X in google
[06:51] <kaosx> shouldnt that take precidence?
[06:51] <quiet> so? make him a member of audio.
[06:51] <kaosx> weird thing
[06:51] <mind> hi all, i'm wondering if ubuntu has something similar to buildd.debian.org
[06:51] <kkaisare> SurfnKid: I have a sissy 32 MB GeForce 2 MX , don't talk to me about XGL :(
[06:51] <kaosx> when i do "groups username" it only show two groups, if I add that user to audio, it doesnt show admin anymore
[06:52] <Cybertrash> hi together, i would like to install my m-audio lt-1010 sndcard under ubuntu 6.06 is anybody able to help?
[06:52] <quiet> kaosx, in the GUI tool, is the check box done for "Use audio devices" ?
[06:52] <Siphroma_> What do I have to install to be able to read an NTFS Drive on a ubuntu system?
[06:52] <kaosx> didnt know there was a gui tool
[06:52] <quiet> under user properties -> user privileges tab.
[06:52] <kaosx> let me look
[06:52] <SurfnKid> kkaisare, hehe, get a 64 or 128, thatll work sweet
[06:52] <SurfnKid> < 128 M10 ATI 9600 Radeon
[06:52] <quiet> kaosx, under system -> administration
[06:52] <kaosx> checking now :)
[06:53] <theclaw> bye
[06:53] <SurfnKid> but even with a 64, i say it should work good
[06:53] <shaver> has anyone successfully used 915resolution?  everyone i've read says i need to use that, but ive had no luck with it
[06:53] <sureshot> i got my 9550 off ebay for 60.00 us it is dual head and 256meg
[06:53] <kaosx> quiet: it did not have those privs, I added them..gonna see what happens
[06:53] <SurfnKid> sureshot, nice deal
[06:54] <Siphroma_> Anybody know if you can even read an NTFS drive in linux?
[06:54] <kpin> some people drink coffee in the morning to wake em up or takde amphetamine pills (adderall) today I ate pussy and stuck my dick in it and i was 100% awake. and then I had my coffe and amphetemine pillz

[06:54] <kaosx> prolly gonna have to log out/in
[06:54] <SurfnKid> sureshot, mine's embedded in the laptop

[06:55] <shaver> ill get you another weird problem i'm having, when i set up the 1600x1200 in xorg.conf, i could select it, HOWEVER, when it runs in 1600x1200 it outputs in 1024x768 to the monitor, so its a really big display i have to scroll all over for, does that make sense?
[06:55] <kaosx> quiet: you rock
[06:55] <SurfnKid> kpin, rock on
[06:55] <kpin> i love rocking on
[06:55] <Samuli^> should I be using sdparm instead of hdparm for my S-ata drive?
[06:56] <kaosx> apparently sudo doesnt work as well as su for adding users to groups
[06:56] <quiet> kaosx, great :)   i'm off to lunchnow.

[06:56] <Bonzodog> kaosx: use sudo -s
[06:56] <Bonzodog> then that drops you into root
[06:57] <SurfnKid> and i have another Dell laptop which im going to install ubuntu once i get a chance
[06:57] <kaosx> does it track your usage in .bash_history?
[06:57] <sureshot> hey kpin i have a  dual head ati card in my desktop could you send me email a example of a xconf file with that example
[06:57] <gnomefreak> or try the root terminal in system tools :)
[06:57] <Bonzodog> no
[06:57] <kaosx> I can login as root, thats not the issue gnomefreak
[06:57] <sampo_v2> where can i find the changes between dapper's 2.6.15-26 and 2.6.15-27 ?
[06:57] <gadek> dpkg-reconfigure locales doesn't show any menu - how can I reconfigure the list of locales from text mode ?
[06:57] <kaosx> it was that using sudo wasnt adding groups correctly
[06:57] <shaver> has anyone ever got an integrated intel graphics chip to run a high-rez widescreen monitor?
[06:57] <sampo_v2> shaver: yes. running atm

[06:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Hi sureshot
[06:59] <Nookie> hej SurfnKid
[06:59] <Jack_Sparrow> shaver: Is that from your xorg or your spec sheet?
[06:59] <shaver> sampo_v2 - what resolution does your monitor run on?
[06:59] <shaver> yes
[06:59] <SurfnKid> Nookie, which part of Europa are ya in
[06:59] <Nookie> SurfnKid: sweden =)
[06:59] <sampo_v2> shaver: 1920x1200
[06:59] <SurfnKid> hehe thought so
[06:59] <Nookie> SurfnKid: why?
[06:59] <SurfnKid> telia
[06:59] <Nookie> ahh yeah
[06:59] <sureshot> jack i know you are busy but when you get  a chance could you send me an xconf file example of a dual monitor config via email
[06:59] <SurfnKid> gave ya away!
[06:59] <Nookie> :-D
[07:00] <SurfnKid> heh
[07:00] <Jack_Sparrow> sureshot: I dont know that I have one here..
[07:00] <b0ysc0ut> anybody knows how to make engage works?do i need enlightment?
[07:01] <harleypig> anyone famliar with getting compiz/xgl working on kubuntu using gdm?
[07:01] <shaver> sampo_v2: did you have to use 915resolution to make it run?
[07:01] <mind> does anyone knows where are the logs of packagebuilder of ubuntu?
[07:01] <gnomefreak> harleypig: best to ask in #ubuntu-xgl
[07:01] <sampo_v2> shaver: yes. it ran on 1600x1200 before i installed 915res
[07:01] <harleypig> I'm able to boot to kde and run compiz-start, but I don't get any window decorations
[07:01] <SurfnKid> anyone know after running ubuntu in a session, the system doesn't log off properly,  it just freezes, blank screen and nothing else, sometimes i get lucky and it works
[07:01] <harleypig> gnomefreak: thanks
[07:01] <gnomefreak> yw
[07:01] <sureshot> @yahoo.com
[07:01] <sureshot> opps
[07:02] <sureshot> if you know someone that does please have them email it to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[07:02] <synjet> gnomefreak, you have any idea on any gnome app that enables having window thumbnails on the desktop?
[07:02] <sureshot> num lock was not on lolol
[07:02] <shaver> sampo_v2: well, when i run 915resolution, i think it actually tries to run at 1680x1050, but the monitor freaks out and immediately turns off, thats the closest i've gotten
[07:02] <SurfnKid> since im running xgl, i cant shutdown directly, no option, just log off or switch
[07:02] <sampo_v2> shaver: does ddc work?
[07:03] <Bergie> How do I restore a saved mount to new installation?
[07:03] <Samuli^> does anyone have idea about how to enable acoustic management for sata-drives?
[07:03] <gnomefreak> synjet: no not off hand
[07:03] <shaver> haven't used/heard of it, lemme google it
[07:03] <klm-> does anyone have a cure for overly saturated quality of videofiles? I've installed all codecs recommended in ubuntuguide.
[07:05] <shaver> what exactly is ddc?
[07:06] <kismet_> ddc is a monitor signal used to report it's specifications/capabilities to the device it's connected to
[07:06] <crashd> hey guys, i've got a serial port wacom tablet, is there anyway to get this working under linux?
[07:07] <burk> shaver, ddc = Dewey Decimal Classification
[07:07] <crashd> i also own a wacom usb, but the serial is a bigger tablet
[07:08] <shaver> umm, all i know is that it is picked up as a generic monitor in xorg.conf, so would that mean it did not use ddc?
[07:08] <gharz> guys, i've got one question and i'm not sure where to ask. i'm currently here in dubai and the isp blocks some major websites... like skype... can anyone inform me if there a way to open these blocked sites?
[07:08] <crashd> gharz: you could use ssh tunnelling
[07:08] <crashd> if you have a box outside of dubai that runs linux
[07:08] <crashd> or rather, that runs sshd ;)
[07:08] <redkrieg> crashd: seen this page? http://www.mepis.org/node/9325
[07:09] <kismet_> blocking websites, gotta love that...
[07:09] <redkrieg> its mepis, but they're based on the same core
[07:09] <J-_> how can i change the *default*  size of my icons?
[07:09] <harisund> Does anybody know if wget can be used with wildcards? I want to download all the pdf files from a web page.... is it possible?
[07:09] <crashd> redkrieg: ah, cheers
[07:10] <redkrieg> np ;)
[07:10] <Paddy_EIRE> deskbar rocks
[07:10] <shaver> is it ok to paste some lines from my xorg.conf in here?
[07:10] <gnomefreak> harleypig: i think it can but check man wget to make sure
[07:10] <Paddy_EIRE> as does beagle :)
[07:10] <harleypig> gnomefreak: /
[07:10] <harleypig> gnomefreak: ? I mean
[07:10] <gnomefreak> oops
[07:10] <harleypig> I think you meant someone else
[07:10] <gnomefreak> sorry harleypig

[07:13] <gizmo_the_great1> HI. I am trying to reconfigure sbackupd to include a directory that I've missed out. Except whenever I launch it I'm told that "Another Simple Backup daemon already running: exiting". I run 'top' and cannot see it listed. How do I resolve?
[07:14] <synjet> Tyle1: <IP_ADDRESS>?
[07:14] <Tyle1> synjet: im not sure... :S
[07:14] <hetauma> any1 knows if the JMicron controller bug is fixed in knot 3?
[07:14] <naranha> Tyle1: did you do smbpasswd tyle ?
[07:14] <Tyle1> synjet: my linux box shows up on the windows machine, but it wont let me access it without a password and username.
[07:15] <Tyle1> naranha: yes
[07:15] <shaver> http://paste.uni.cc/10190 could someone pelase look at my xorg.conf and see why i cant display 1680x1050
[07:15] <Tyle1> naranha: but its asking for the old password, I dont remember setting a pass up
[07:15] <dwhsi1> so I asked this at #gstreamer with no luck... maybe here? ... sound juicer & gstreamer were working fine ripping mp3s from cds until ubuntu upgraded to 6.06...  now I get files that are 10x the size they should be, and not clear they are actually mp3s... when played, whole song plays in about 2 secs
[07:15] <synjet> Tyle1: the username is your username on linux m/c and the passwd is I guess the one you set using smbpasswd
[07:15] <dwhsi1> my gstreamer pipeline is "audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc preset=standard"
[07:15] <dwhsi1> thoughts?

[07:16] <Tyle1> synjet: i never set up a password for smd
[07:16] <Tyle1> synjet: is there a way to reset it without the old password?
[07:17] <sureshot> the old password is the one you set up in your login just tested it
[07:17] <synjet> Tyle1: set your samba passwd using smbpasswd
[07:17] <Tyle1> sureshot: my ubuntu username pass?
[07:17] <z1pp3r> In quake4 i cannot enable support for multiple cpu (I have a dualcore intel d805) even though 'uname -a' reports "2.6.15-26-686 #1 SMP". What gives?
[07:17] <sureshot> yes i just used my ubuntu password it took it but it was the first time
[07:17] <gizmo_the_great1> kismet_: thanks, but I get this "sudo: etc/init.d/sbackupd: command not found"
[07:18] <gizmo_the_great1> kismet_: same if I type "sudo: /etc/init.d/sbackupd: command not found"
[07:18] <shaver> would anyone kindly examine this xorg.conf file and see why i can't display 1680x1050 http://paste.uni.cc/10190
[07:18] <Bergie> How do I restore a saved mount to a new installation?
[07:18] <kismet_> gizmo_the_great1: you're not typing a colon, are you?
[07:18] <sureshot> i hope that works
[07:19] <gizmo_the_great1> kismet_: nope. The output given is what is returned after I type "sudo etc/init.d/sbackupd: command not found" at the terminal
[07:19] <Tyle1> sureshot: I put in my pass in the Windows machine and got this back as a username TYLER-DESKTOP\tyler...but it didnt access my ubuntu box
[07:19] <Tyle1> :(

[07:19] <harry> hi, is there a way to connect to a wireless network with a given SSID automatically on boot? At the moment I have to run wlassistant to connect it
[07:19] <Tyle1> it knows my linux box is there, but it wont access it
[07:20] <python_user> harry, what about ndiswrapper?
[07:20] <z1pp3r> shaver, i *think* X has a very hard time coping with widescreen resolutions (Or well, anything but 4:3 resolutions in general). I'm a afraid i never found a solution to it though. Probably just a single line you need to insert somewhere.
[07:20] <iqon> how do i get a machine to reboot at the end of linuxrc in an initrd image?
[07:20] <sureshot> ok i was just saying aobut the smb password to set smbpasswd use your linux password
[07:20] <synjet> harry: gnome-network-manager remembers
[07:20] <Tyle1> i tried that
[07:20] <linuxboy> what is the policy for bug reporting and ubuntu?
[07:21] <bockman> anyone get an orinoco card working with dapper without recompiling anything?
[07:21] <Bonzodog> Tyle1: are you using just explorer to explore the linux box?
[07:21] <gizmo_the_great1> harry: my laptops connect OK automatically. Just configure the wireless connection accordingly
[07:21] <harry> python_user: haven't tried that, will look at it thanks
[07:21] <Bonzodog> through samba?

[07:21] <shaver> z1pp3r: thank you for your response, i think it also has a problem with that video card, but if i can't get it to display at the right resolution, i can't run ubuntu
[07:21] <Tyle1> No im trying to map a drive in Windows to the ubuntu box
[07:21] <Bonzodog> AFAIK, it needs an ssh login

[07:21] <sureshot> i have not had a chance to do that just yet been busy
[07:21] <sri_> !movieplayer
[07:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about movieplayer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:21] <harry> synjet: oh right thanks ill check it out
[07:21] <python_user> yeah, im also having problems with mplayer
[07:22] <Bonzodog> Tyle1: I've never seen Windows map a linux mount
[07:22] <python_user> cant play .mov file
[07:22] <Bonzodog> linux can map the windows mounts but vice versa
[07:22] <python_user> tried to install essential codecs
[07:22] <python_user> from website
[07:22] <python_user> but it still doesnt work
[07:22] <python_user> :(
[07:22] <ketsugi|IMF> Bonzodog: there's a Windows driver for Ext2/3
[07:23] <ketsugi|IMF> http://www.fs-driver.org/
[07:23] <Bonzodog> yeah, ithink he needs to have the ext3 driver installed in windows, then use smbfs
[07:23] <z1pp3r> shaver, i've had the problem with widescreen resolutions on both nvidia and ati based cards, so i doubt it's a card specific issue. I'm sure however, it *is* possible, i just never had the  patience to look for a solution since i only needed it for tv-out/dualview (which i rarely use anyway)
[07:23] <harry> hmm also while Im here, is there a way to force X to use a certain resolution (1200x800)?  Ive googled it n tried lots of different config things with modelines etc but not got anything yet
[07:23] <Bonzodog> that would enable windows to understand the ext3 FS
[07:23] <Tyle1> Bonzodog: Well what im trying to do is, im using VMWare to run a Windows VM, so I can use SAM Broadcaster for internet radio streaming (since there isnt an alternative for Linux that im aware of). Im trying to map E Drive in the Windows VM to the /media/windows/ folder in Linux.
[07:23] <shaver> z1pp3r: this is an integrated intel chip
[07:23] <z1pp3r> harry, sure. Just specify 1200x800 as the only possible resolution in xorg.conf
[07:24] <Tyle1> Bonzodog: Now I got the VM WIndows to see the Linux host, but it wont go into it.
[07:24] <kismet_> z1pp3r: that's a little dangerous, don't you think? if it fails?
[07:24] <harry> z1pp3r: done that but it Xorg.0.log says its not a valid mode, even when I add the modeline and defaults to 1024x768
[07:24] <z1pp3r> kismet_, thank god for irssi :)
[07:24] <Bonzodog> Tyle1: you really would be better off using a native linux client for that, like the shoutcast client
 i thought this driver behaved pretty erratically on a windows 2000 install I used to have, and i have not used the driver since......then again i have not used windows since either
[07:24] <Bonzodog> icecast or something
[07:25] <sureshot> sorry i had to leave there for a minnute
[07:25] <z1pp3r> kismet_, either way, he could always just change it back if it doesnt work. I fail to see the danger
[07:25] <Bonzodog> Tyle1: I would work on getting internet broadcasting working properly in linux
[07:25] <z1pp3r> harry, hmm, and i suppose your monitor and graphicscard *do* support 1200x800?
[07:25] <Tyle1> Bonzodog: SAM is a fully automated internet radio station program which scheduling, music database, and so on. It isnt a DNAS plugin like Shoutcast or Icecast. http://www.spacialaudio.com is the one I use now that produce SAM.
[07:26] <Tyle1> Is there a SAM alternatuve for Linux?
[07:26] <Tyle1> alternative*
[07:26] <Bonzodog> have you googled for one?
[07:26] <Tyle1> Bonzodog: Many of times.
[07:26] <JosefK`> harry: you probably need 915resolution
[07:26] <harry> z1pp3r:  hehe yeah its a laptop using an Intel chipset, windows runs it with resolution 1280x800 (sorry didnt mean to put 1200x800)
[07:26] <Tyle1> Bonzodog: I come back with a few that dont work well.
[07:27] <JosefK`> harry: if it's a laptop, you _definitely_ need 915resolution.
[07:27] <reon> Anyone here use automatix ?
[07:27] <JosefK`> harry: I'm just looking for the wiki link
[07:27] <harry> JosefK`: yeah i was looking at that but I wasnt sure which chipset i was using, i think its something like Intel 950, which I didnt see in the compatibility list
[07:27] <Bonzodog> it could be 'edge' software with a small userbase, thus devlopment is slow at best
[07:27] <aloon> greetings
[07:27] <ketsugi|IMF> Paddy_EIRE: so far it's seemed to be pretty stable for me
[07:27] <Ricesteam_> Hi my spellchecker in OpenOffice does not seem to work. Can anyone help?
[07:27] <ketsugi|IMF> on Win XP Home
[07:27] <z1pp3r> harry, have you manually specified the hsync and vrefresh for your screen? Perhaps dpms is telling lies...
[07:27] <ketsugi|IMF> admittedly I don't often boot into XP
[07:27] <Tyle1> Bonzodog: What about WINE, WINEX, or Crossover to use SAM, could that work?
[07:27] <JosefK`> harry: it's usable with that chipset, all it does is modify the in-memory list of usable resolutions, it doesn't touch the card itself
[07:27] <Tyle1> Bonzodog: or would it be unstable?
[07:27] <sexcopter8000m> i want to install edgy on a new partition, so is it ok to make one and use the same swap partition as i use for dapper?
[07:27] <Jack_Sparrow> shaver: How much ram is set aside in the bios for that card?
[07:28] <sexcopter8000m> or do i need make a second swap partition
[07:28] <sexcopter8000m> even if they don't run at the same time
[07:28] <linuxboy> what does "Detect LAN Printers" in CUPS do?
[07:28] <aloon> I screwed up my girl friends perfectly working breezy by dist-uprgading it to dapper, now it won't boot ... it hangs on checking battery can anyone please, please help me?
[07:28] <z1pp3r> harry, never mind me, seems like JosefK` knows what to do
[07:28] <harry> z1pp3r: I think I just put the defaults for whatever dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg set.  Then for the modeline i used the info in the X logs
 k nice one it must have been sorted in between times....good to know
[07:28] <shaver> jack_sparrow: it's the max it supports, i think its 16 but it may be 8
[07:29] <aloon> I'm on a different box and i'm trying not to lose her files by nuking the system and going fresh
[07:29] <harry> JosefK`: hmm so if all goes wrong then I should be able to reboot n all will be as before?
[07:29] <harry> z1pp3r: sweet, well thanks for your help
[07:29] <JosefK`> harry: indeed
[07:29] <Jack_Sparrow> shaver, have you tried lowering the depth and seeing if the res works?
[07:29] <kinema> what meta package in edgy depends on the latest smp capable kernel compiled for 686?
[07:29] <JosefK`> harry: sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[07:29] <z1pp3r> harry, wasn't really that helpfull, but you're welcome
[07:29] <Bonzodog> Tyle1: WINE would be worth a shot
[07:29] <JosefK`> harry: this http://www.geocities.com/stomljen/readme.html seems to cover it
[07:29] <shaver> jack_sparrow: how would i lower the depth?
[07:30] <harry> JosefK`: woo, didnt want to install it cos I thought it flashed the chips :)
[07:30] <nox-Hand> Hey - how do I make it NOT use my motherboards soundcard, and use the PCI card?
[07:30] <harry> JosefK`: sweet thanks
[07:30] <Jack_Sparrow> shaver you have default depth set to 24...
[07:30] <JosefK`> harry: np's :)
[07:30] <shaver> yes
[07:30] <z1pp3r> In quake4 i cannot enable support for multiple cpu (I have a dualcore intel d805) even though 'uname -a' reports "2.6.15-26-686 #1 SMP". What is wrong? Is there any way to see if linux is actually recognizing both cores?
[07:30] <shaver> , just chanhe that to 16?
[07:30] <kamisan> Hmm, I got a problem here
[07:31] <osten> Hi, I was wondering if someone here would like to help a linux newbie with multi monitors?
[07:31] <kamisan> The old computer won't boot the damn disc
[07:31] <stealg> how can i delete a broken pakage ??
[07:31] <Jack_Sparrow> shaver: Just a thought, if you have 8 megs of ram and you want to go 1400 x something and 24 bit you may just be running out of ram.
[07:31] <kamisan> It just says DISC BOOT FAILURE
[07:31] <aloon> the error i'm getting is when the dist-upgrade got to mplayer-skins it says can't overwrite a file, so I type apt-get -f install and it says the same overwrite message
[07:31] <JosefK`> harry: it might be worth googling for "your laptop model + ubuntu", for the correct arguments to 915resolution
[07:31] <kinema> zirpu: "cat /proc/cpuinfo" if you see to procs listed the kernel is recognizing both cores
[07:32] <aloon> i also tried sudo dpkg -p --force- depends mplayer-skins and it did not work
[07:32] <z1pp3r> kinema, it does
[07:32] <kinema> z1pp3r: then linux is using both cores.
[07:32] <kamisan> Do I need to kind of floppy start up disc?
[07:32] <kamisan> some*
[07:32] <JosefK`> aloon: try 'dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq -p mplayer-skins'
[07:33] <z1pp3r> kinema, but hmm... it's finding it as CPU 0 and CPU 1, each with only 1 core. Shouldnt it just find 1 cpu, with 2 cores?
[07:33] <aloon> now i'm thinking about throwing her hard drive in my box, dragging her files over and nuking her system with a fresh dapper
[07:33] <harry> JosefK`: ah good idea, ill do it now.  thanks
[07:33] <sureshot> i have read i hope this is helpful but games have to be written for dual cores if not they dont use them both
[07:33] <shaver> jack: would it make sense that I could run it at this resolution and depth in windows but no tubuntu?
[07:33] <Jack_Sparrow> aloon: That is the best bet...
[07:33] <aloon> thanks jose, sorry i disappeared last night, I switched over to her box to do what you were helping me with
[07:33] <Jack_Sparrow> shaver: Yes... it would..
[07:33] <JosefK`> aloon: np's :)
[07:33] <gizmo_the_great1> what backup software do people here use?
[07:33] <shaver> ok, thanks ill try it
[07:33] <aloon> one monitor..
[07:34] <Jack_Sparrow> gizmo_the_great1: sbackup or simple tar..
[07:34] <nox-Hand> What is the Via AC97 alsa module called? I want to blacklist it :D
[07:35] <crayzee> Hey, in bash, if you do: for I in *.jpg; convert $I $I.png; done
[07:35] <crayzee> Whats the thing that you do to get JUST the filename without extension
[07:35] <JosefK`> crayzee: you need a 'do' before the command
[07:35] <crayzee> something like ${I%.jpg}
[07:35] <sureshot> this is a repeat question so those who have read it ignor but dose anyone have a example of a xconf file for dual monitors. they can email me
[07:36] <we2by> hi, any one has ubuntu on a macbook?
[07:36] <osten> Does anyone know if I can use "Xinerama" and how to install it on ubuntu?
[07:36] <crayzee> JosefK`, fair point :) But thats just a typo.
[07:36] <ptivoiz1> re
[07:36] <JosefK`> crayzee: probably the easiest is to pipe the filename through "sed -e 's/\..*$//'"
[07:36] <Jack_Sparrow> !xinerama
[07:36] <ubotu> xinerama is using multiple monitors as one big monitor. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo
[07:36] <crayzee> JosefK`, I'm sure I've seen it in scripts... ${I somethin}
[07:36] <osten> Thank you
[07:37] <JosefK`> crayzee: not a clue :/ I'd just do that using sed though
[07:37] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[07:37] <sureshot> book marked it thanks

[07:37] <harry> JosefK`: magic, it worked.  Thanks, so odd looking at the screen n it not being blurred :)

[07:37] <habtool> HI All
[07:37] <habtool> Could someone please be so kind as to advise a link to the following info, or advise here if there are non available.
[07:37] <habtool> I am running vmwareplayer and Nvidia (installed via automatix), i have just dist-updated to the latest kernel.
[07:37] <habtool> How do i get vmwareplayer and nvidia to work with this kernal, when i boot xorg fails and i end up at a terminal screen.
[07:37] <habtool> i can get into the desktop by loading the old kernal at boot
[07:37] <JosefK`> harry: :D have fun
[07:37] <nox-Hand> What is the Via AC97 alsa module called? I want to blacklist it :D
[07:38] <Paddy_EIRE> When ubuntu is at the boot stage (when all those services are being loaded and it gets the OK next to it) it says "Setting Sensors Limits : failed" I think this is to do with xsensors which I installed it did not work so I then removed it with "sudo apt-get remove --purge xsensors" although it still shows that "failed" message??
[07:38] <Seveas> habtool: tough luck, automatix sucks
[07:38] <nightfreak> ich habe probleme mit der installation von php5-dev, es kommt die meldung "php5-dev:Hngt ab: libssl-dev, aber es wird nicht installiert.", beim versuch libssl-dev zu installieren kommt eine hnliche warnung
[07:38] <Jack_Sparrow> habtool: Automatix and Easyubuntu are the WORST things you can run.. Once you do.. there is no going back without restoring from a backup or reinstalling.
[07:38] <shaver> jack sparrow: i got the same thing, whenever I use 915resolution to go to 1680x1050, my monitor has a several blue and green lines that blink and then cuts off (seems like a safety cutoff to prevent damage to the monitor)
[07:39] <shaver> and i set the defaultdepth to 16
[07:39] <Flannel> nightfreak: you're still not in -de ;)
[07:39] <Jack_Sparrow> shaver: Screen is ok at 16bit depth..?
[07:40] <Mathis_> hello! Can someone help me please?
[07:40] <shaver> no, it did not work at 16bit depth
[07:40] <stealg> python_user,  tnks i fix that ;)
[07:40] <Seveas> Bonzodog: they only help wrecking your system :)
[07:40] <Flannel> Bonzodog: We have to fix plenty of automatix installs, you can beg all you want, doesn't mean it's right ;)
[07:40] <nightfreak> Flannel: sorry for that
[07:40] <Seveas> !someone > Mathis_
[07:41] <Bergie> How do I restore a saved mount to a new installation?
[07:41] <kamisan> Are you people ignoring me ?
[07:41] <sureshot> gee this is edumentation sitting here reading this LOL
[07:41] <Mathis_> is it possible change the device name of a partition?
[07:41] <python_user> stealg, no problem :D
[07:41] <kamisan> IT won't boot even if I put the CDROM as the first boot device =/
[07:41] <habtool> I dont have a problem after running automatix, with the kernel at the time it runs fine, i just need to get nvidia to run after a dist-upgrade to a later kernel, is that not possible?
[07:41] <Bonzodog> habtool: you will need to reinstall the nvidia drivers to match the new kernel; I advise doing it through synaptic this time
[07:42] <rand1> hello everyone
[07:42] <sureshot> kamisan if no one answers they are either busy or they dont know be patient someone wiill be with you
[07:42] <Bonzodog> the nvidia drivers are kernel matched
[07:42] <Jack_Sparrow> kamisan: HAve you tested the cd on another machine, how did you burn the cd, what speed did you use?
[07:42] <Bonzodog> thus, new kernl, ner driver interface
[07:42] <kamisan> IT's an original disc
[07:42] <habtool>  Bonzodog: do i uninstall the current ones first?
[07:42] <nightfreak> i'm having probleme when installing php5-dev, it complains about beeing associated with libssl-dev
[07:42] <kamisan> and I tried using another CDROM
[07:42] <Bonzodog> no, you don't need to
[07:43] <sureshot> kamisan may i thorugh 2 cent in here
[07:43] <root_____> Hey
[07:43] <Jack_Sparrow> kamisan: HAve you tested the cd on a different computer?
[07:43] <Bonzodog> what you are looking for in Synaptic is called 'restricted modules'
[07:43] <kamisan> yeah
[07:43] <kamisan> and they work
[07:43] <Bonzodog> get the restricted modules that match the new kernel version
[07:43] <kamisan> I tried 3 different original cd's
[07:43] <sureshot> have you checked the cable to make sure the red strip is next to the power plug on the cd rom i
[07:44] <Jack_Sparrow> kamisan: So it is a hardware issue with the system that will not boot to the cdrom
[07:44] <sureshot> as i said it is 2 cents worth
[07:44] <kamisan> Yes, I have
[07:44] <sureshot> ko
[07:44] <kamisan> It may be a hardware issue
[07:44] <habtool> i cant boot to the new kernel as xorg fails, so i would need to remove the current nvidia first, then boot to the new kernel, then get the restricted modules etc?
[07:44] <kamisan> but is there any way to boot it from a floppy?
[07:45] <gizmo_the_great1> hi. I am having major trouble with sbackup. I can run the restore utility OK, but whenever I try to run the backup part, it says "Starting sbackup", hangs about for about 15 seconds, then just never loads. I've tried typing 'sbackupd' at the terminal, same problem. I've tried to stop it from running processes but cannot find it listed. I have looked in etc/init.d and cannot see it in there either so cannot run 'sudo /etc/init.d/sbackupd st
[07:45] <gizmo_the_great1> op' either
[07:45] <gizmo_the_great1> i have also tried uninstalling and re-installing but same problem
[07:45] <gizmo_the_great1> using sudo apt-get remove sbackup
[07:45] <kamisan> The computer won't even read the god damn CD
[07:45] <mrbrdo> where can i increase the sound buffer?
[07:46] <gizmo_the_great1> followed by sudo apt-get install sbackup
[07:46] <Bonzodog> habtool; yes, you could do it that way, and make a minor adaption (temporary) to the xorg.conf file: change the word 'nvidia' to 'nv'
[07:46] <gizmo_the_great1> but problem persists
[07:46] <Seveas> kamisan: swearing won't help
[07:46] <Jack_Sparrow> !language > kamisan
[07:46] <shaver> is there a place to download updated intel graphics drivers, because my 2d video performance is very bad right now
[07:46] <harry> hi, sorry one last question :P  how do I get a script to run on boot? just put it in /etc/init.d and enable it in bum?
[07:46] <Bonzodog> that way, X will start, using the default standard nv driver#
[07:46] <Seveas> harry: that would work
[07:46] <harry> Seveas: cool thanks
[07:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Maybe Ubuntu will NOT run on a TImex-SInclair
[07:47] <bockman> anyone get an orinoco card working with dapper without recompiling anything?
[07:47] <kendals> I need to chat to MSN users with AUDIO CHAT- I've used Kopete, Gaim, Mercury, aMSN, etc....no luck- anybody? Skype doesn't like my headset which works.
[07:47] <AlexC> Hey,
[07:47] <Paddy_EIRE> How would I disable this  "Setting Sensors Limits : failed"
[07:47] <AlexC> Does anyone know where the soruce files are for the Gnome Pannel Applications are, like the  Window List
[07:47] <sureshot> hey jack sorry for butting in there
[07:48] <elmargol> kendals: MSN is a piece of shit. no this is no flaming its the truth! upnp is such a damn bad idea
[07:48] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[07:48] <AlexC> elmargol, fact is many many people use it, so there still needs to be Linux alternatives so people can chat
[07:48] <sureshot> i am big into ms dont that all my life new to ubuntu though so i do know a little somthing
[07:48] <sureshot> i just can type LOL
[07:49] <sureshot> can=cant
[07:49] <kamisan> Hmm
[07:49] <mrbrdo> where can i increase the sound buffer?
[07:49] <kamisan> I seem to have a problem with the IDE cable
[07:49] <SillyZ> afternoon yall
[07:49] <sureshot> when you said it would not open that is why i asked that question
[07:50] <kendals> elmargol: that doesn't help solve the problem- I already know it sucks, but I still need audio MSN conversations ...
[07:50] <boink> elmargol was kicked
[07:50] <habtool> Thanks, Bonzodog. Will change to NV and see how i get along
[07:50] <kendals> lol, boink.
[07:50] <kendals> So anyone know how I can get audio MSN conversations? :(
[07:50] <AlexC> Does anyone know where the soruce files are for the Gnome Pannel Applications are, like the  Window List
[07:50] <python_user> well
[07:50] <kendals> Or when Skype will support Linux properly (i.e. ALSA)..
[07:51] <python_user> bye guys

I've added them to my "startup" in the sessions settings, but at reboot they're not on my screen.  I can check the "Current session" and they'll be running and it seems like they do run in the background, but not in my tray notification area.  Also, if i run nm-applet from a command line, it will put it
[08:40] <czer323> self on the tray with no errors.
[08:40] <Justy> csp: i commented it ok
[08:40] <csp> Justy: If I'm correct (I'm in doubt here, not too much of a guru) NetworkManager picks it up anyway and should show your wireless card anyhow, but maybe you have to restart networkmanager
[08:40] <kovan> hey I have a lot of fonts for indian, japanese, chinese, korean... etc. which are taking a lot of space in my disk, how do i find out which ones I don't need???
[08:40] <csp> Justy: so you could "sudo killall NetworkManager"  and then restart with "sudo NetworkManager"
[08:41] <Justy> csp: ok thanks for that
[08:41] <csp> Justy: but NetworkManager only replaces all of your configuration, If you messed up the driver in some way it won't help you
