[09:40] <reka> Chetic: well, my bet is it's not loaded, but you've said in xorg.conf to use it.  that's why you're getting "no device"
[09:41] <J0el> i need some help . i installed sdl .. the latest version ..but still this game gives me an error , Cannot initialise sdl: video not found.
[09:41] <nalioth> Lupius: open a terminal and type "man fsck"
[09:41] <reka> Chetic: hang on, i'll search for yesterday's log
[09:41] <Chetic> reka, that does sound interesting..
[09:41] <nalioth> J0el: if anyone knows the answer, they will ask
[09:41] <nalioth> J0el: give it a few minutes tween askings
[09:41] <IFRFLY1> chol: thanks!
[09:41] <J0el> nalioth,  ok thx.
[09:42] <chol> IFRFLY1, i'd recommend compiling your own kernel and compiling the wlan driver against that one
[09:42] <Lupius> nalioth,  its written for filesystem.... i need to check the hard disk in general for such things... will this do the trick
[09:42] <Lupius> ?
[09:42] <Chetic> reka, root@ubuntu:/ # modprobe fglrx
[09:42] <Chetic> FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.10-5-amd64-generic/kernel/drivers/video/fglrx.ko): No such device
[09:42] <nalioth> Lupius: i'im not a hardware guy, but if anything will, it'll tell you
[09:45] <reka> Chetic: OK, i'll send you the log.  the parts you
[09:45] <reka> 're interested in involve delire and nova
[09:46] <Chetic> reka, guess you should use pastebin, this won't work..
[09:47] <Murlocdundee> does anyone know if the skin used by ubuntu's website is available somewhere ?
[09:47] <Murlocdundee> available to download
[09:47] <reka> damn, i think i missed the end of their convo as well, but delire steps through the install process: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/296079
[09:48] <nalioth> Murlocdundee: rip it right off the site
[09:48] <Chetic> ok reka, thanks.. hope this works
[09:48] <reka> Chetic: and if you can't get that to work, here's the instrucitons i used:
[09:48] <reka> !fglrxinstall
[09:48] <ubotu> [fglrxinstall]  http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/BinaryDriverHowTo
[09:48] <Murlocdundee> nalioth: how ?
[09:49] <Chetic> reka, you have a PCI-E card..?
[09:49] <Murlocdundee> nalioth: you mean reverse-engineering
[09:49] <reka> no, AGP.  which is why i warned you several times that i am wary. :-)
[09:49] <nalioth> Murlocdundee: wget is wonderful for sucking every available thing from a website
[09:49] <nalioth> Murlocdundee: so is "save page as"
[09:50] <Murlocdundee> nalioth: and then how do I apply the same skin to my plone site ?
[09:50] <benjamin23> i downloaded the firefox installer from the main firefox website, which directory should i install it to , so it replaces the normal deb packaged version?
[09:50] <nalioth> Murlocdundee: don't know what plone is, you just asked how to get the contents
[09:50] <Murlocdundee> nalioth: yeah
[09:50] <nalioth> benjamin23: what is the matter with the ubuntu version?
[09:51] <Murlocdundee> nalioth: thanks anyway
[09:51] <hondje> it's slow as I am in the morning
[09:51] <filnev> OK got it up and running.
[09:51] <filnev> need root
[09:51] <benjamin23> it crashes all the time
[09:51] <benjamin23> anandtech and plextor.com
[09:51] <filnev> How do I get full root access
[09:51] <ilRas> ok my sound card works great now, i have tvtime as tv application... stations are tuned, i see them all fine... but i don't hear any sound! the line-in is un-muted, volume is set to the bax both in the souncardmixer and in tvtime... it's a bt878-based tv tuner.
[09:51] <ilRas> what could be wrong?
[09:52] <filnev> Hi everyone
[09:52] <ilRas> s/bax/max
[09:52] <linukso> filnev: sudo passwd root
[09:52] <filnev> It actually runs on a pentium 233 32mb ram!
[09:52] <filnev> I tried that
[09:53] <filnev> blank password
[09:53] <filnev> ?
[09:53] <jeroen_> -l
[09:53] <ilRas> filnev: applications menu, system tools, root terminal
[09:53] <linukso> filnev: no, set the root password you want
[09:53] <anatole_> anyone knows a windows emulator to run photoshop cs2?
[09:54] <linukso> anatole_: wine, but its not an emulator
[09:54] <filnev> No gui, or very slow gui. need console solution
[09:54] <anatole_> wine does not works
[09:54] <linukso> filnev: then run "sudo passwd root"
[09:54] <anatole_> gives the same faultmsg as cedega
[09:54] <mats> anatole_: why dosnt it work then?
[09:54] <caine> how do i install a deb file....when i click on the file it opens up the root terminal but how do i install it
[09:54] <anatole_> or i think photoshop gives that
[09:55] <jeroen_> caine, sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb
[09:55] <nalioth> caine: sudo dpkg -i filnemame.deb
[09:55] <mats> caine: dpkg -i file
[09:55] <jeroen_> nalioth, :)
[09:55] <mats> yes
[09:55] <linukso> anatole_: then wmware or win4lin might be other options, but I dont know bout that
[09:55] <anatole_> "photoshop does not runs under this version of operating system bal bla"
[09:55] <nalioth> jeroen_: it helps when you can't spell for nuthin
[09:55] <benplaut> we really should stop telling people to use dpkg, and instead to use debins...\
[09:55] <anatole_> yeah i'm thinking about wmware
[09:55] <jeroen_> nalioth, filnemame!
[09:55] <filnev> got it !!!
[09:55] <filnev> thanx
[09:55] <jeroen_> benplaut, debins?
[09:55] <nalioth> benplaut: debin<what>?
[09:56] <mats> benplaut: debins?
[09:56] <filnev> seems I had already set the password before and didnt realize.
[09:56] <filnev> Thanx
[09:56] <nalioth> benplaut: Explain Yourself, please!
[09:56] <benplaut> it creates a virtual repo on your hdd, and can therefore work with apt-get to solve dependancies, while it's at it
[09:56] <benplaut> with a GUI :)
[09:57] <nalioth> hmmmm ya mean like synaptic?
[09:57] <linukso> sudo doesn't want the root passwd, it wants you password, given that your an admin user (listed in /etc/sudoers)
[09:57] <filnev> OK is it safe to say that runlevel 3 will not start X by default ?
[09:57] <benplaut> like synaptic... but can install packages not int he repos
[09:57] <filnev> Im about to edit the inittab file.
[09:57] <mats> benplaut: ok ;) do you got a web-link?
[09:57] <benplaut> just a sec
[09:58] <mats> nice :)
[09:58] <rob_> Hello all, Anyone out there have sound working on a Toshiba Tecra 8000?  The sound card in question is the Yamaha opl3sa2.  I'm trying to get ALSA configured for this card.  Any thoughts, links?

[10:00] <ubuntunobuntu> hi @all is there a news panel applet for gnome like knewsticker?
[10:02] <J0el> i need some help . i installed sdl .. the latest version ..but still this game gives me an error , Cannot initialise sdl: video not found.
[10:03] <poptones> Has anyone left Hoary for Warty because of all the little problems?
[10:04] <tonkar> Chile?
[10:04] <poptones> I found hoary much harder to setup, much harder to configure, and not even as easy to use in most stuff but I want the latest nautilus and firefox and gimp
[10:04] <TheDracle> What little problems does Hoary have?
[10:04] <TheDracle> Hm.
[10:04] <TheDracle> What problems did you have setting it up?
[10:04] <poptones> the sound quality is not as good with my gefcorce motherboard (and that was after I made it work at all), the video is a pain in the butt to setup
[10:05] <TheDracle> Hm.
[10:05] <ubuntunobuntu> hello knows anyone  gnome applet for news?
[10:05] <TheDracle> What kind of video card do you have?
[10:05] <TheDracle> It isn't being detected?
[10:05] <poptones> and lots of little things I couldn';t even descibe, it just "feels clunky" compared to warty
[10:05] <poptones> i wanted a mini system so I got a motherboard with video and all on it.
[10:05] <TheDracle> poptones: Could be because you're using a generic video driver because it didn't detect your card?
[10:05] <poptones> a shuttle MN31N it was actually a quest to even get one
[10:06] <nalioth> ubuntunobuntu: yarssr
[10:06] <poptones> no i am using a generic video driver now in warty and it works great
[10:06] <poptones> but if i install warty it is stuck at low rez
[10:06] <poptones> unless i install the nvidia driver
[10:06] <TheDracle> Right.
[10:07] <poptones> i do not want to install the nvidia driver, it makes the sound quality sauck
[10:07] <tonkar> i'm looking for an apt-get repository wich contains kdeedu, some idea?
[10:07] <poptones> the open source sound driver is better than nvidia
[10:07] <hondje> how would video module affect sound?
[10:07] <poptones> i do not know it apparently installs them as a bundle
[10:07] <TheDracle> hondje: It wouldn't he said things feel clunky.
[10:07] <hondje> tonkar: universe :)
[10:08] <poptones> yes things just feel clunky, like sometimes an app crashes unexpectedly or whatever
[10:08] <poptones> in warty the only thing that ever crashed was firefox
[10:08] <TheDracle> Hm, mabye just because it's using the newest aps?
[10:08] <hondje> ah, yes
[10:08] <tonkar> universe?
[10:08] <poptones> and that is the rendering bug i think
[10:08] <tonkar> i need it for hoary
[10:08] <TheDracle> My Hoary system has been very stable.
[10:09] <TheDracle> I don't think I've had anything crash yet.
[10:09] <poptones> i don't know.. I just wish I could have  warty just like it is but with gnome 2.1 and gimp 2.2
[10:09] <TheDracle> And, the installation has been just fine.
[10:09] <hondje> tonkar: kdeedu is in universe, like deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hoary universe
[10:09] <hussam> what is autopackage?
[10:09] <TheDracle> poptones: You could always build them from sources.
[10:10] <poptones> whaoh I cannot even get imagemagick to vcompile from the source!
[10:10] <Trixsey> Hey! Anyone around?
[10:10] <tonkar> ok ..... i will try it, thanks ;)
[10:10] <poptones> i tried, i followed instructions, it ain't happening
[10:10] <TheDracle> .. I would assume, since the kernel is in the same family, you could use the binaries from hoary..
[10:10] <Trixsey> I got a problem... I set my watch but Ubuntu keeps resetting the BIOS watch :-( Its real disturbing since I'm using an LCD on my computer to show me the current time!
[10:10] <poptones> and building gnome rom source.. isn't that ridiculously complex?
[10:10] <jeroen_> I connected my computer and tv with an s-video cable. When in terminal (and booting, etc) the tv shows the same as the screen, but in graphical mode, it starts blinking weirdly. My video card is a Ati Radeon 9200SE; I do not have the non-free drivers. Any help would be appreciated
[10:11] <TheDracle> jeroen_: What kind of video card is it?
[10:11] <chol> jeroen_, lower your refresh rate
[10:11] <jeroen_> TheDracle, Ati Radeon 9200SE
[10:11] <TheDracle> Oh yeah :p
[10:11] <TheDracle> Lol.
[10:11] <jeroen_> chol, is it possible to edit it only for the tv?
[10:11] <raDeon> WHO CALLED ME
[10:11] <raDeon> WHOI
[10:11] <raDeon> WHO
[10:11] <raDeon> WHO
[10:11] <raDeon> SPEAK UP
[10:11] <raDeon> NOW
[10:11] <jeroen_> haha, I mean the video card. Relax, man!
[10:12] <raDeon> oh
[10:12] <chol> Trixsey, it runs hwclock --systohc at shutdown, set all your clocks to the same time
[10:12] <raDeon> you summoned me from my slumber
[10:12] <raDeon> i grant you 2.5 wishes
[10:12] <TTilus> jeroen_: speaking about radeons, doya have "rubbish" problem with 3D graphics?
[10:12] <Trixsey> chol, I already set the BIOS clock and the clock in Linux
[10:12] <Trixsey> Do I have more than that?
[10:12] <jeroen_> TTilus, yes, when playing gl-117
[10:12] <nalioth> raDeon: please grow up
[10:12] <Trixsey> I mean.. Ubuntu time is 22:12 now, and BIOS clock is 22:12
[10:12] <raDeon> naderman, please mind your business
[10:12] <chol> jeroen_, dunno.. look at the driver man page if there is one, perhaps it has specific options for tv-out
[10:12] <TTilus> jeroen_: not managed to solve?
[10:12] <raDeon> if i want to pretend to be a genie, let me have my fun
[10:13] <TheDracle> I think you can have multiple "Screen" devices that attach to the same video card.
[10:13] <TTilus> jeroen_: (just desperately seeking a solution)
[10:13] <tonkar> it workes! thanks a lot, and now i'm going to learn latin with klatin :P ...
[10:13] <jeroen_> chol, I eh.. forgot how to do that, lower the refreshrate :S (except for xorg.conf)
[10:13] <raDeon> tonkar, no problem
[10:13] <mae> whats the daemon that automatically adds folders in /media when hald tells it a new device is connected?
[10:13] <_Church_of_FoamY> i have an odd problem
[10:13] <jeroen_> TTilus, no; and Klatin is cool, huh?
[10:13] <raDeon> klatin is very cool
[10:13] <chol> Trixsey, look at hwclock and make sure that all clocks are the same time, thats all i can say, if there still i a difference whene you boot up perhaps the battery is bad
[10:13] <jeroen_> mae, (guess): hotplug
[10:13] <mats> _Church_of_FoamY: o?
[10:14] <_Church_of_FoamY> my vid card untill a few days ago used to work with ubuntu
[10:14] <chol> jeroen_, thats what you want to do, edit it in xorg.conf
[10:14] <raDeon> Trixsey, bad battery
[10:14] <_Church_of_FoamY> now it wont
[10:14] <TheDracle> jeroen_, Go to your xorg.conf file, and find the Section "Screen" part. You can probably specify another screen, and change its settings to use the same video card.
[10:14] <TTilus> jeroen_: this?  http://edu.kde.org/klatin/
[10:14] <_Church_of_FoamY> ubuntu dosen't see it any more and give me a x error of somesort
[10:14] <TTilus> johns^: dunno about coolness
[10:15] <_Church_of_FoamY> but it still runs video?
[10:15] <TTilus> johns^: oops, sorry
[10:15] <TTilus> jeroen_: dunno about coolnees, never tried
[10:15] <TheDracle> jeroen_: But, you'll have to change the Section "ServerLayout" portion to use the telivision screen, instead of the monitor, and switch it back when you switch back to your monitor.
[10:16] <jeroen_> TheDracle, I can't use both at the same time?
[10:16] <Chetic> [fglrx:firegl_init]  *ERROR* Device not found! Error inserting fglrx
[10:17] <TheDracle> jeroen_: I'm not sure if that's possible, it may be.
[10:17] <nalioth> what time zone is UTC?
[10:17] <Trixsey> raDeon: Bad CMOS battery? You sure? Never had this problem untill I resett my watch :P
[10:17] <Trixsey> Those batteries use to last forever, and my comp aint too old either
[10:18] <TheDracle> jeroen_: I mean, can your video card display in two different video modes simultaneously?
[10:19] <jeroen_> TheDracle, well, during boot it was fine with doing both at the same time, so it is in a terminal
[10:19] <Chetic> Can I not have mesa AND fglrx installed at the same time?
[10:20] <TheDracle> jeroen_: Right, so, if you bump down your refresh rate, both will probably display, but one with limited video quality.
[10:20] <pat^_> hi, are there any bootdisks available ? i want to install ubuntu on a dell notebook of a friend but it can't boot from the external cd drive
[10:20] <WeirdAl> So I connect to MSN (sorry) through Gaim happily but when I send a message it says there's a problem with the switchboard and no sendy.
[10:20] <xhaker> what good identd daemon you recommend?
[10:21] <pat^_> xhaker: oident
[10:21] <WeirdAl> Also, my i-pen keeps cutting out. Basically a USB mouse.
[10:21] <WeirdAl> Works if I plug it back in again
[10:21] <Sero> What packages are needed for alsa? I know in Gentoo it's alsa-utils and alsa-tools but I don't see alsa-tools in the packages.
[10:22] <odie5533> Is there a way to resize ext3 partitions?
[10:22] <Trixsey> I got a problem... I set my watch but Ubuntu keeps resetting the BIOS watch :-( Its real disturbing since I'm using an LCD on my computer to show me the current time!
[10:22] <odie5533> WeirdAl: with the GAIM, I had the same problem. Try iming someone else
[10:22] <WeirdAl> k
[10:22] <thechitowncubs> everyone buy apple stock
[10:22] <[Chameleon] > no kidding
[10:22] <pestilence> thechitowncubs: you mean intel stock
[10:23] <thechitowncubs> no
[10:23] <odie5533> everyone buy odie stock!
[10:23] <thechitowncubs> i mean apple stock
[10:23] <[Chameleon] > both
[10:23] <nalioth> odie5533: parted?
[10:23] <odie5533> nalioth, is that a program to resize partitions?
[10:23] <WeirdAl> odie5533, that got the Gaim one, cheerses
[10:23] <rob_> Has anyone had any success in getting an opl3sa2 soundcard working using the ALSA drivers on Hoary?
[10:23] <benplaut> odie: for a GUI, QTparted
[10:24] <thechitowncubs> gparted
[10:24] <jeroen_> thechitowncubs, just so your stocks will rise? Don't think so :p
[10:24] <odie5533> Ah ok, thanks for the help I'm gonna boot up on my recovery disk, later
[10:24] <thechitowncubs> :(, you got me
[10:24] <WeirdAl> benplaut, thechitowncubs, I've tried both of those and I couldn't get either to actually resize my partition.
[10:24] <nalioth> odie5533: it is a f/oss partition thang in the style of partition magic
[10:24] <WeirdAl> It was my root partition I was trying to resize, though.
[10:24] <WeirdAl> That might have had something to do with it.
[10:25] <pat^_> are there any bootdisks available or at least some documentation where to get them if they exist ?
[10:26] <AirWays> Where are all those Icons which are in that "Startup menu" ?
[10:26] <thechitowncubs> you can't resize and active partition
[10:26] <ompaul> how do I stop CD Player from launching when a cd is put in the player?
[10:26] <WeirdAl> Yeah I know
[10:26] <thechitowncubs> you need to do it from a live cd enviornment or through a boot disc
[10:26] <WeirdAl> I tried it with a live CD
[10:26] <nalioth> AirWays: /usr/share/icons i believe
[10:27] <AirWays> No not that
[10:27] <thoreauputic> ompaul: I think it's an option in "removable media"
[10:27] <WeirdAl> ompaul, System > Preferences > Removable Drives and Media
[10:27] <AirWays> I mean those program starters, that panel at there up
[10:27] <AirWays> :D

[10:29] <AirWays> Where is startup menu's files?
[10:29] <WeirdAl> Anyone know why my USB mouse keeps giving up?

[10:30] <IcemanV9> it's powered by usb, mats
[10:31] <WeirdAl> AirWays, what do you mean by startup menu?
[10:31] <xhaker_> pat: i cant setup my identd :S
[10:31] <mats> ;)
[10:31] <gingermark> Hey peeps, does "apt-cache search x" show what programs on your computer are related to "x", or rather the available programs that are related to "x"?
[10:31] <AirWays> Well
[10:31] <IcemanV9> WeirdAl: try other usb port?
[10:31] <AirWays> That button which contains that Ubuntus logo
[10:31] <pestilence> gingermark: available
[10:31] <WeirdAl> The Applications menu?
[10:31] <pestilence> gingermark: available and installed

[10:34] <xhaker> ppl
[10:34] <thechitowncubs> is there a way that i can make it eject by hitting the button, because it gives me an error when i try to eject it from the desktop "eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument"

[10:42] <thoreauputic> The_ANtipop: maybe with Crossover Office - not sure
[10:42] <The_ANtipop> wats that

[10:44] <ompaul> Campa[SUN] , if you tell us what you want to know we might be able to help
[10:44] <Campa[SUN] > but it doesnt find my ethernet card or my wireless card
[10:44] <The_ANtipop> o yeah
[10:44] <Campa[SUN] > my ethernet card is a  Marvel Yukon 88E8053 PCI-E
[10:44] <The_ANtipop> it wont recognize my printer either:(?
[10:45] <Campa[SUN] > the Wireless is a Netgear 108 Mps WG511T
[10:45] <Campa[SUN] > thats on my laptop btw
[10:45] <chol> Campa[SUN] , have you googled to see if these devices are supported by the kernel?
[10:45] <Campa[SUN] > my friend can plug in the wireless card and it runs just fine on his ubuntu
[10:45] <Campa[SUN] > so i think its a problem with my pcmcia card reader maybe
[10:46] <ompaul> Campa[SUN] , what model of laptop is it?
[10:46] <Campa[SUN] > chol, the netgear card should run fine, it does on my friends laptop
[10:46] <The_ANtipop> huh
[10:46] <The_ANtipop> anyw ay to "aquire" this crossover office
[10:46] <Campa[SUN] > its a custom laptop based on a Clevo M400A

[10:49] <timbo22za> hi all, got a prob with synaptic. tried installing flux and all im getting is W: Failed to fetch http://za.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/m/menu/menu_2.1.20_i386.deb
[10:50] <ompaul> hondje, I think you should stress the java thing at the top of the article - i.e. This needs java - instuctions Here.
[10:50] <jeroen_> How can I guess my TV's refresh rate?
[10:50] <timbo22za> i can naviget to the directory tho
[10:50] <Campa[SUN] > so i guess noone can help me? :(
[10:50] <chol> jeroen_, pal 50 or 60, ntsc 60
[10:50] <ompaul> hondje, only because I thought I was winning then I get do java - but you do not say jre or tudder one
[10:50] <hondje> ompaul: good thinking, though it doesn't really need java, just for the GUI stuff
[10:50] <chol> Campa[SUN] , i asked you a question, did you follow up on it?
[10:50] <hondje> oh, good point
[10:51] <Campa[SUN] > chol, the netgear wireless runs on my friends laptop, he got an acer inspire tho
[10:51] <Campa[SUN] > he has the same ubuntu version installed
[10:51] <Campa[SUN] > he just plugs it in and ubunti recognizes it
[10:51] <moquist> does anybody here know if Hoary supports / on RAID?
[10:51] <ompaul> hondje, well I do evaluate a lot of stuff in work - double think what people suggest and others want - where people suggest are techies - and others are people who never saw this technology before :)
[10:52] <chol> Campa[SUN] , then i guess the next logical step would be to plug in some other card to see if the pcmcia-slots are working?
[10:52] <wasabi_> moquist, not exactly a valid question. Ubuntu supports "raid". Hardware raid ubuntu isn't even aware of.
[10:52] <wasabi_> Are you refering to a specific device or type?
[10:52] <Campa[SUN] > i plugged in his asus wireless card which runs fine on his ubuntu too, doesnt work on mine
[10:52] <jeroen_> chol, and the horizsync and depth (sorry I ask so much ;) )
[10:52] <Campa[SUN] > it doesnt even detect the hardware
[10:52] <hondje> ompaul: My thinking was that someone looking for matlab in the docs would probably be stuck at how it wont run unless you copy to hda
[10:52] <moquist> wasabi_: sure.  but can I configure RAID5 at install time and put / on it?
[10:52] <wasabi_> you mean software raid?
[10:52] <Sero> I can't get my sound to work I apt-get installed alsamixergui and it said function snd_ctl open failed for
[10:52] <moquist> wasabi_: yes
[10:52] <Sero>              default: no such file or dir
[10:52] <wasabi_> Yes.
[10:52] <worksucks05> Hi Boys and Girls... here is the scoop... linux noob here, heading out to work very soon, and gotta get this working.....I installed openbox, but I can't get it to load, as it just hangs, and I can't get it to be the default window manager...Can anyone help?
[10:52] <moquist> wasabi_: thx
[10:52] <Campa[SUN] > so i guess the pcmcia slots dont work properly
[10:53] <wasabi_>  /boot must be on a non-software raid partition though
[10:53] <wasabi_> or a raid 1 mirror anyways
[10:53] <hondje> ompaul: how about a prereqs section to start it off?
[10:53] <ompaul> Campa[SUN] , it seems you need to research your motherboard, have a look at the box with kanotix which does more laptops than you can shake a stick at, in a couple of months breezy will be there if it is not there today
[10:53] <wasabi_> as it is read by the bootloader, which has no knowledge of software raid
[10:53] <moquist> wasabi_: ok; thx
[10:53] <ompaul> hondje, just a sec
[10:53] <wasabi_> moquist, look for LVM in the partitioner
[10:53] <spanglesontoast> will ubuntu run on a k6?
[10:53] <chol> jeroen_, just put something lower than 75 on both and try, if no success lower it gradually
[10:54] <wasabi_> and MD.
[10:54] <nalioth> spanglesontoast: yes it will
[10:54] <ilRas> /dev/hda1       /mnt/winxp      ntfs    ro,user         0       0 <- what should i add to make it readable by all users? right now only root can read the mounted partition...
[10:54] <wasabi_> A combonation of the two is supurb.
[10:54] <jeroen_> chol, the problem is, that takes so much time :(
[10:54] <jeroen_> thx
[10:54] <Campa[SUN] > ompaul the problem is its a custom laptop...
[10:54] <spanglesontoast> how much memory
[10:54] <spanglesontoast> ?
[10:54] <Campa[SUN] > where can i download kanotix btw
[10:54] <Robbie1590> hey
[10:54] <chol> Campa[SUN] , you need to learn to google
[10:55] <nalioth> Tritis: Amaranth bob2 anyone what is the chan for the council meeting?
[10:55] <Robbie1590> when i save the live ubuntu will it be a data cd or a bootable cd
[10:55] <ompaul> Campa[SUN] , I made my suggestion based on the following, lappies and linux get a lot of motherboads tested in kanotix
[10:55] <moquist> wasabi_: yep.  thx.
[10:55] <Amaranth> nalioth: -meeting
[10:55] <ompaul> Campa[SUN] , I go to www.distrowatch.com
[10:55] <ancientorange> hi
[10:55] <Robbie1590> hello?
[10:55] <Robbie1590> ancient
[10:56] <nalioth> Amaranth: thx
[10:56] <ancientorange> i am new to ubuntu and i ve got a few questions
[10:56] <Amaranth> nalioth: that's tomorrow though
[10:56] <ancientorange> how can i mount a windows share on my ubuntu system ?
[10:56] <nalioth> Amaranth: thought i read it was today
[10:57] <hondje> what are the ati non-3d drivers? Like nvidia has nv?
[10:57] <ompaul> hondje, I think the voodoo sentence might do with a smiley it is a little heavy for a noob
[10:57] <Amaranth> nalioth: june 7th 21:00 UTC
[10:57] <nalioth> Amaranth: been havin a lot of trouble with the intelligence barrier (my own)
[10:57] <ancientorange> i cant find a command linke smbmount
[10:57] <nalioth> Amaranth: well i read 6 June 2200UTC
[10:57] <Campa[SUN] > thank you ompaul
[10:57] <hondje> ompaul: good catch
[10:57] <ompaul> Campa[SUN] , for kanotix? ;-)
[10:58] <Campa[SUN] > and chol if you dont want to help thats ok
[10:58] <Lafitte-> kanotix sucked on my laptop
[10:58] <Campa[SUN] > for the link, ompaul
[10:58] <ompaul> Campa[SUN] , no worries
[10:58] <Amaranth> nalioth: oh, it's june 7th 22:00 UTC
[10:58] <Amaranth> nalioth: that's what the -meeting topic says
[10:58] <Campa[SUN] > i just love the look of ubuntu thats why i wanted get it running... but if it cant find my cards theres no point :/
[10:58] <worksucks05> Can anyone help me out with openbox and metacity?
[10:58] <nalioth> Amaranth: i'm so confused on all this stuff
[10:59] <Amaranth> worksucks05: openbox and metacity are both window managers
[10:59] <Lafitte-> Campa[SUN] ,  you should use M$Windows
[10:59] <ancientorange> can any body explain to me how to mount a windows share on my system ? smbmount doesnt seem to work :-(
[10:59] <chol> Campa[SUN] , sorry if i sound evil.. but if you google for "my_network_card supported linux" perhaps you'd gotten the answer right away
[10:59] <worksucks05> yup... gotcha...I installed openbox, but can't get it to load by default
[10:59] <Lafitte-> Campa[SUN] ,  i think any linux might be abit out of control for you
[10:59] <ompaul> Lafitte-, Campa[SUN]  has no way of doing ubuntu without some hardware hacking and did not indicate that they could do so, as a result and given that kanotix has a huge base of developers who use laptops I think it is only fair to offer it as a possible short term solution
[11:00] <jeroen_> chol, It doesn't work :( I've tried several times, with rates as low as 20, doens't work
[11:00] <nalioth> Amaranth: and as luck would have it, i will have to make time tomorrow, where today i'm off
[11:00] <Lafitte-> ompaul,  sure why not    i hve a centrino  and kaotix ould not even load, but i like ubuntu anyways
[11:00] <crazybum5> im having a lot of trouble with wireless can anyone help me
[11:00] <worksucks05> Amaranth -yup... gotcha...I installed openbox, but can't get it to load by default
[11:00] <chol> jeroen_, doesn't gnome have an app for setting resolutions and refresh rates?
[11:01] <Amaranth> worksucks05: ah, no idea where
[11:01] <jeroen_> chol yes, but for me it's limited to 60 hz and higher
[11:01] <Campa[SUN] > well i tried to install my network card with the ndiswrapper, didnt help either
[11:01] <Campa[SUN] > the wireless card that is
[11:01] <jeroen_> chol probably because of my xorg.conf settings?
[11:01] <chol> jeroen_, 60 should work, most modern tv:s can do it w/o problems
[11:01] <mats> tryed too update the kernel?
[11:01] <jeroen_> chol this TV is in *no way* modern!
[11:01] <jeroen_> It's PAL btw
[11:02] <worksucks05> Amaranth -I typed  % openbox --replace    but it doesn't do anything
[11:02] <Campa[SUN] > and lafitte, just because i dont know much about linux doesnt mean you have to behave like some elite nerd
[11:02] <Chetic> Is there some easy way to change Kernel options?
[11:02] <cssia> why can
[11:02] <jeroen_> chol you suggest 60 vertrefresh and 60 horizsync?
[11:02] <Amaranth> worksucks05: I only use GNOME, sorry.
[11:02] <chol> jeroen_, i have hsync 28-71 and vrefresh 43-71, that works for me and if I plug in another monitor and restart x, xorg chooses the highest one possible
[11:02] <cssia> why can't i uninstall any of the default ubuntu programs (gimp, ooo, etc) without uninstalling the ubuntu-desktop package?
[11:02] <ancientorange> can anybody please explain to me how to mount a Windows network share on my system ??
[11:02] <Lafitte-> Campa[SUN] ,  thats the thing    im far from elite nerd.....im trying to help you
[11:03] <mats> Chetic: why do it easy? :p i like the hardway :)
[11:03] <Campa[SUN] > youre not helping me at all by saying "you should use windows"
[11:03] <mats> ehhehee
[11:03] <worksucks05> Amaranth -Thanks, for now, because I have to head out to work asap, could you just tell me how to make metacity the default manager?
[11:03] <cssia> anyone?
[11:03] <Amaranth> worksucks05: Once again, not a clue.
[11:03] <Amaranth> worksucks05: Sorry.
[11:03] <cssia> Amaranth, hey, do you know why i can't uninstall ooo or gimp without uninstalling ubuntu-desktop?
[11:04] <Chetic> mats, I have most likely not got the patience
[11:04] <Lafitte-> Campa[SUN] ,  whatever     windows/linux   are both tools.....use whatever  just tring to save headache for you
[11:04] <nalioth> worksucks05: when you login and choose metacity, it should ask if you want it as default
[11:04] <timbo22za> ancientorange: try http://www.ubuntuguide.org
[11:04] <The_ANtipop> how do you play mp3s
[11:04] <Amaranth> cssia: Because ubuntu-desktop depends on them. ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage though, you don't need it until you upgrade to breezy.
[11:04] <The_ANtipop> is there a plugin i need
[11:04] <hondje> Is fglrx hardware accelerated?
[11:04] <Amaranth> hondje: yes
[11:04] <Amaranth> The_ANtipop: You need gstreamer-mad
[11:04] <hondje> Amaranth: awesome...you know of any others besides that and nvidia?
[11:04] <Campa[SUN] > it doesnt give me a headache lafitte but thanks for your concerns
[11:04] <cssia> Amaranth, so you're saying i can uninstall ubuntu-desktop without issue?
[11:04] <mats> The_ANtipop: install gstreamer0.8-mad
[11:04] <crazybum5> with wirelesss configuration, is there anyway to change the keychannel
[11:04] <The_ANtipop> k
[11:04] <mats> lib file..
[11:04] <jeroen_> chol still not working :(
[11:04] <jeroen_> stupid TV
[11:05] <nalioth> The_ANtipop: www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RestrictedFormats
[11:05] <Amaranth> cssia: Until you want to upgrade to breezy, yes.
[11:05] <crazybum5> all of my wireless internets are different key channels
[11:05] <cssia> Amaranth, danke
[11:05] <Lafitte-> Campa[SUN] , hehe
[11:05] <worksucks05> nalioth - it doesnt' give me that option... just open box.. but, I would go back to the default gnome, but I can't seem to get that to load by itself
[11:05] <crazybum5> ?
[11:05] <chol> jeroen_, and you restart x with the tv plugged in?
[11:06] <crazybum5> sigh does anyone know anything about wireless, haha im going to have to switch back to windows if i dont get wireless set up
[11:06] <worksucks05> nalioth - I am a total noob too... just happens I am quite short on time tonight
[11:06] <jeroen_> chol TV plugged in (was also during boot), X is currently not running (bitchx)
[11:06] <crazybum5> and i really really dont want to do that too
[11:06] <jeroen_> chol I just now started it in tty2
[11:06] <chol> jeroen_, i've had problems using different screens, if I boot up with an external monitor xorg chooses the best resolution and refresh for it and to get back to the "internal" monitor i needed to restart x...
[11:08] <nalioth> worksucks05: come back and ask later
[11:09] <worksucks05> ok, sounds good, thanks
[11:11] <jeroen_> chol, it says 50 Hz on the back of the TV, you know..
[11:11] <jeroen_> Gnome will only let me select 60Hz though
[11:12] <juj1> hi, how to install kde
[11:12] <chol> jeroen_, yeah.. it's like that, but the 50hz on the back could be 50hz in the electrical circuits aswell.. but then again, pal is usually 50hz
[11:12] <jeroen_> now to tell gnome/x to use 50Hz ;)
[11:13] <chol> jeroen_, x can't do below 60 afaik
[11:13] <ancientorange> why doesnt this command work ?
[11:13] <ancientorange> ancientorange@glumimeetstux:~$ sudo mount //<IP_ADDRESS>/fancient fancient -o username="Ancient Orange",dmask=777,fmask="777"
[11:13] <ancientorange> ancientorange mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //<IP_ADDRESS>/fancient,
[11:13] <ancientorange> ancientorange        missing codepage or other error
[11:13] <ancientorange> ancientorange        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[11:13] <ancientorange> ancientorange        dmesg | tail  or so
[11:13] <chol> juj1, apt-get install kde perhaps?
[11:13] <jeroen_> chol, that's ehh... really nasty then
[11:14] <chol> ancientorange, is smbfs installed?
[11:14] <sas-couch> anyone ever gotten the ati drivers to work on the ATI mobile IGP chipsets?
[11:14] <sas-couch> cause ive read through the forums and havent really found a definitive answer on it
[11:14] <japoeder> Does anyone know if the new ipods are compatible with rhythmbox?
[11:15] <chol> ancientorange, dpkg -l smbfs
[11:16] <Jormundgand> http://ketsuban.net/images/stuff/banananana.png
[11:17] <chol> ancientorange, please.. in the channel
[11:17] <juj1> I tryed apt-get install kde    but it says the package does not have candidate for install
[11:17] <sas-couch> apt-get install kubuntu
[11:18] <chol> ancientorange, and un means it's not installed, so try and apt-get install it
[11:18] <mats> juj1: apt-cache search kde
[11:19] <ancientorange> chol ok i apt get install smbfs it
[11:19] <chol> ancientorange, good, you could try smbclient while your at it aswell
[11:19] <darkaudit> hmm... installed new nvidia drivers with a minimum of screw-ups ;)
[11:20] <ancientorange> chol kk
[11:20] <thoreauputic> juj1: actually it's "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop "
[11:20] <mats> juj1: its somethink like ukbuntu-desktop or something
[11:21] <thoreauputic> see above
[11:21] <mats> oh, thoreauputic .. you got it before me ;) tanks
[11:21] <mats> thanks
[11:21] <ancientorange> chol how can i allow normal users to use the mount command ?
[11:21] <chol> ancientorange, by setting the mountpoint up in fstab with the option users
[11:23] <ancientorange> chol ok thx. is there a ressource on the net which explains all this stuff so i don't have to ask people on the channel all the time ? i googled already but found no satisfying records so i came here
[11:23] <Seveas> ancientorange, man mount
[11:23] <Seveas> :)
[11:23] <chol> ancientorange, it's not so much magic to fstab, just look at the entries already there and compare to what your mount command is
[11:23] <Seveas> and wiki.ubuntu.com combined with tldp.org is also a good resource
[11:24] <juj1> looks like  "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" is doing it lot of things moving in the console , Ilet you know when stop
[11:24] <AirWays> How I can make new profile to linux, to /home/ folder example: /home/guest/ ?
[11:24] <Seveas> AirWays, adduser
[11:24] <Seveas> see the manpage for the details
[11:24] <AirWays> OKay
[11:24] <thoreauputic> juj1: it will download and install over 100MB of stuff
[11:25] <chol> ancientorange, and as Seveas pointed out, one needs to learn how to read man pages
[11:25] <ompaul> AirWays, guest accounts are a bad idea unless you lock them down like crazy
[11:25] <hondje> and change the defaults in sudoers
[11:25] <ancientorange> chol ancientorange@glumimeetstux:~$ sudo mount -t smbfs -o username="ancient orange" //<IP_ADDRESS>/fancient fancient
[11:25] <ancientorange> cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it.
[11:25] <ancientorange> 11758: protocol negotiation failed
[11:25] <ancientorange> SMB connection failed
[11:25] <thoreauputic> hondje: new users are not in sudoers by default
[11:26] <hondje> Mine has ALL=ALL in it
[11:26] <hondje> or did before I changed it
[11:26] <chol> ancientorange, now it seems you have found an ubuntu specific question :)
[11:26] <thoreauputic> hondje: hmm - it shouldn't... odd
[11:26] <hondje> that was my thought, ungoodness
[11:26] <nalioth> thoreauputic: Seveas AirWays i always use System>Administration>Users and Groups
[11:26] <thoreauputic> unless that is the first account
[11:26] <Seveas> thoreauputic, or the admin group :)
[11:26] <AirWays> How I can delete user?
[11:27] <AirWays> If i can add it with "adduser"
[11:27] <hondje> thoreauputic: No, I noticed that after I added my users
[11:27] <thoreauputic> deluser
[11:27] <ancientorange> chol so what do i do now ?
[11:27] <Seveas> AirWays, with the same tool as nalioth pointed out, or use deluser
[11:27] <nalioth>  AirWays i always use System>Administration>Users and Groups
[11:27] <chol> ancientorange, see what google says about that error, could be that windoze requires some cryptostuff
[11:27] <hondje> But I'm a magnet for breakage
[11:27] <Loevborg> q: where do I look for nfs error messages? what can it be when it says connection refused (2 ubuntu machines)?
[11:27] <hondje> I'm more annoyed by my neverending /dev/shm gripe than sudo:)
[11:27] <Seveas> Loevborg, nfs daemon not started?
[11:28] <thoreauputic> Loevborg: do you have portmap running ?
[11:28] <nosilver4u> anyone had issues with wireless keyboard/mouse combos?
[11:28] <Ray|v|an-1010> somebody can tell me where can i download MATLAB
[11:29] <Loevborg> thoreauputic, Seveas, yes, both portmap and nfs-kernel-server are running.
[11:29] <thoreauputic> Loevborg: and do you have both nfs-common and nfs-kernel-server installed ?
[11:29] <chol> Loevborg, rpcinfo -p remote_host
[11:29] <hondje> Ray|v|an-1010: MATLAB isn't free
[11:29] <hondje> Try octave
[11:29] <thoreauputic> Loevborg: OK
[11:29] <Ray|v|an-1010> mm
[11:29] <benplaut> reinstalled  :)
[11:29] <Ray|v|an-1010> do u have it?
[11:29] <hondje> Yes
[11:29] <Seveas> Ray|v|an-1010, we do not support copyright infringment in here...
[11:29] <DXT> anyone knows the name of the font here - http://www.gnome-look.org/content/pre1/21140-1.png
[11:29] <Loevborg> chol, gives me: rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Remote system error - Connection refused
[11:29] <hondje> I paid out the ass for it
[11:30] <chol> Loevborg, there you go
[11:30] <Seveas> hondje, yeah, it's teriible :S
[11:30] <thoreauputic> Loevborg: warty or hoary?
[11:30] <Ray|v|an-1010> uhh ok
[11:30] <Loevborg> thoreauputic, hoary.
[11:30] <chol> Loevborg, is portmap started on the other machines, are they even reachable etc..
[11:30] <thoreauputic> OK just checking - warty needed /etc/default/portmap edited IIRC
[11:31] <Loevborg> chol, portmap is installed, and ssh/smb is working
[11:31] <darkaudit> will the new nvidia drivers be officially packaged for Hoary?
[11:31] <chol> Loevborg, and running?
[11:32] <Loevborg> chol, daemon   16125  0.0  0.0   1652   452 ?        Ss   23:28   0:00 /sbin/portmap
[11:32] <Robbie1590> sweet it works
[11:32] <chol> Loevborg, it should return something like portmapper and nlockmgr when it works
[11:32] <Robbie1590> i love linux
[11:32] <flodine> i love it to
[11:32] <ilRas> Robbie1590: good for you :(
[11:32] <thoreauputic> Loevborg: sudo /etc/init.d/portmap restart && /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart (perhaps)
[11:32] <chol> Loevborg, oh.. i remember one thing from debian, it only listens to localhost
[11:32] <Robbie1590> this is only live cd though
[11:32] <flodine> anyone on 64bit
[11:32] <ilRas> me
[11:33] <ilRas> flodine: i am
[11:33] <flodine> ilRas does 64 bit hve gdesklets
[11:33] <flodine> or munine
[11:33] <thoreauputic> chol: that seemed to be the case on warty, but I didn't see it on hoary
[11:33] <flodine> nuine
[11:33] <Loevborg> thoreauputic, already did this a few times
[11:33] <thoreauputic> Loevborg: OK
[11:33] <juj1> thank you it did it  "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop"  Igot KDE installed
[11:33] <darkaudit> since sid is going to see massive changes since Sarge is now released, will those changes appear in Breezy, or will theyt wait until the release after that?
[11:33] <ilRas> no idea, look at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ :P
[11:33] <flodine> ilRas how is it running
[11:33] <teleyinex> someone knows how to disable the autoformating of dates in openoffice.org
[11:34] <chol> thoreauputic, okej, have only run 5.04 and portmap indeed works out of the box here
[11:34] <flodine> no problems
[11:34] <Loevborg> chol, now I installed portmap & nfs-common on the client machine too, and it gives me: mount: RPC: Program not registered
[11:34] <chol> Loevborg, portmap needs to be started before any other rpc programs
[11:34] <thr1ce> has anyone had bad luck with backports?
[11:34] <ilRas> flodine: well... there is no flash player for firefox... otherwise i haven't had any other problems realted to 64 bits so far
[11:34] <ilRas> but I'm running it since yesterday eheh
[11:35] <thoreauputic> thr1ce: a lot of people have
[11:35] <ilRas> oh yeh, the vpnc client segfaults, had to compile an svn version
[11:35] <darkaudit> ilRas: hmm... i run flash movies in firefox all the time
[11:35] <ilRas> that sucked
[11:35] <nalioth> thr1ce: backports will break your upgradability
[11:35] <ilRas> darkaudit: blame macromedia :(
[11:35] <thr1ce> nalioth, bah; my main concern :(
[11:35] <joe_> flash works nicely in firefox
[11:35] <ilRas> joe_: on 64 bits?
[11:36] <darkaudit> ilRas: ahh... not in 64bit
[11:36] <nalioth> ilRas: you will find there are pkgs in the amd64 arch that are not there for you, where they are for 386,686 arches
[11:36] <joe_> ahm, whoops, no on 32bits
[11:36] <ilRas> eheh
[11:36] <darkaudit> ilRas: oh... that's different... nevermind :)
[11:36] <joe_> anyone of you ever player around with gnome menus
[11:36] <Loevborg> I still get program not registered. I start to loathe nfs.
[11:36] <ilRas> darkaudit:  :)
[11:37] <joe_> from v2.10 there is one tool available, cald semd or so.
[11:37] <Marble2> alright... quick question. I just installed windows. I already have ubuntu installed. I'm using LILO. Windows messed with my boot record, so lilo doesn't come up, it just boots to windows. If I modify my lilo.conf and run lilo again (in knoppix) will I be able to boot to both OSs fine?
[11:37] <Loevborg> arg.
[11:37] <xhaker> can somebody help me?
[11:38] <joe_> i was wondering if it is possible to edit a config file...
[11:38] <xhaker> with oidentd?
[11:38] <Lafitte-> anyone have ricoh card reader ?  i need setup my cardreader and wondering if anyoe has pulled it off
[11:38] <Loevborg> I apologies for my stupdities and thank chol &c. :)
[11:38] <Malsid> Marble2: you'll need to reinstall Lilo.
[11:38] <darkaudit> xhaker: ask... if we can, someone will answer
[11:38] <thr1ce> does hoary use ReiserFS 3.6?
[11:38] <Marble2> Malsid: why reinstall?
[11:38] <Marble2> can't I run lilo to have it control the mbr?
[11:38] <joe_> lilo should be up and running if set up properly again. make sure mbr is written
[11:38] <Malsid> Marble2: Windows has eaten your MBR. You have to get it back.
[11:38] <Marble2> right
[11:38] <Marble2> and running lilo would do that right?
[11:39] <Marble2> but why the reinstall?
[11:39] <xhaker> well.. oidentd is working but it replies my username instead of what i wrote on the config
[11:39] <joe_> i know how to do it with grup
[11:39] <orlandu> Hello! My system doesn't seem to be remembering my screen resolution preference - it boots to 1600x1200@60Hz whatever I set it to in System -> Preferences -> Screen resolution (even when I tick the "make default" box). Can anyone help?
[11:39] <AirWays> Can I somelike configure some user from /home/ ?
[11:39] <chol> Loevborg, it still won't work?
[11:39] <nalioth> Marble2: you should chroot to your exisint ubuntu install from knoppix
[11:39] <Marble2> i'm going to
[11:39] <joe_> first of all,make sure you do a chroot
[11:39] <Marble2> just checking here
[11:39] <xhaker> orlandu, edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and enter the right values for yor monitor
[11:40] <chol> Loevborg, start with rpcinfo -p on the local hosts, when that works, it should be ok for remote usage aswell
[11:40] <nalioth> Marble2: then you seem to have gotten your 2nd opinion
[11:40] <joe_> if you do chroot properly, it should work to rewrite mbr
[11:40] <Marble2> ok cool
[11:40] <AirWays> Can I somelike configure some user from /home/ ?
[11:40] <Marble2> i'll do that right now
[11:40] <xhaker> AirWays, configure?
[11:40] <thoreauputic> AirWays: your question isn't clear
[11:41] <AirWays> I mean'
[11:41] <orlandu> xhaker, I tried that and put the mode I wanted (1152x864@75Hz, 24 bit) as default, but what I got was a screen at 1152x864, but the desktop was at 1600x1200 - moving the mouse to the edge panned around it, but I wanted the desktop to match the resolution
[11:41] <AirWays> Jeah
[11:41] <joe_> there are plenty of config files in each home directory
[11:41] <AirWays> What that user is allowed to do etc
[11:41] <Loevborg> chol, I actually used the wrong IP.
[11:41] <joe_> normally that is done using groups in /etc/groups
[11:41] <thoreauputic> AirWays: you can add or remove that user from groups
[11:41] <magog> #cedega
[11:41] <Loevborg> chol, I'll remember the rpcinfo command tho.
[11:42] <AirWays> There is no directory as: /etc/groups
[11:42] <chol> Loevborg, oh, bummer ;),
[11:42] <chol> Loevborg, rpcinfo is useful, and always restart portmap first
[11:42] <xhaker> orlandu, that is a feature.. lol.. when entering in 1152 try to go to that resolution applet on gnome and set to 1152 too
[11:42] <AirWays> You mean /etc/group ?
[11:42] <joe_> try less /etc/group
[11:42] <ancientorange> chol, i did it just as desribed on the samba page and i still get the error :-(
[11:42] <joe_> yes right
[11:43] <orlandu> xhaker, I'll give that a try, thanks for the advice :)
[11:43] <joe_> there is an user admin gui or something on gnome
[11:43] <Loevborg> chol, there's no GUI for connection nfs shares, no?
[11:43] <joe_> there is a gui loveborg
[11:43] <Loevborg> chol, smb shares are much (10x) slower here on my wlan, for whatever reason.
[11:44] <chol> ancientorange, i haven't seen that error before.. my best guess is too google like hell and hope for the best :)
[11:44] <juju> hi, is there an easy way to install flash player with sinaptic ,
[11:44] <Loevborg> joe_, only for smb (for connecting, I mean)
[11:44] <ancientorange> chol google doesnt return anything (the system i am accessing is a windows sbs 2003 )
[11:44] <xhaker> juju, http://ubuntuguide.org
[11:45] <thoreauputic> Loevborg: once nfs is working, the mount points are just like any mount point on the system, so a gui is kind of irrelevant
[11:45] <xhaker> make sure you add the needed repositories
[11:45] <chol> Loevborg, same here.. nfs is udp and there's not csma/cd in the wlan afaik so i guess that could have something to do with it
[11:45] <Loevborg> thoreauputic, yes I know
[11:45] <ancientorange> anybody ever seen this error ? 11758: protocol negotiation failed
[11:46] <joe_> wlan normaly does not slow down smb connections
[11:46] <ancientorange> cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it.
[11:46] <ancientorange> 12022: protocol negotiation failed
[11:46] <ancientorange> SMB connection failed
[11:46] <Loevborg> chol, I actually think it's a bug in the samba server (or the client)
[11:46] <AirWays> How I can configure to nobody /home user cannot connect to SSH ?
[11:46] <IIIEars> (shrug)
[11:46] <chol> ancientorange, i think thats 2003 doing it.. turn of mandatory channel encryption in computer policies perhaps
[11:46] <cssia> can ubuntu be configured to boot to the command line?
[11:47] <chol> cssia, yes
[11:47] <cssia> chol, how?
[11:47] <joe_> bonne nuit
[11:47] <AirWays> Hmm, How I can set to some users in /home is not allowed to connect with SSH to that computer?
[11:47] <xhaker> buonanotte
[11:48] <thoreauputic> cssia: yes, just edit /etc/X11/default-display-manager and change it to "false"
[11:48] <xhaker> brb
[11:48] <joe_> AirWay, what do you mean with some users in /home
[11:48] <cssia> AirWays, modify /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[11:48] <AirWays> Okay
[11:48] <chol> cssia, update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[11:48] <pfp> AirWays: joinaa #ubuntu-fi , en jaksa selitt englanniksi ;)
[11:48] <Loevborg> chol, you're using ndiswrapper too? (that might be the problem)
[11:48] <AirWays> Ahaa ok
[11:48] <chol> Loevborg, no.. regular drivers
[11:49] <thoreauputic> chol: not really necessary... but yeah
[11:49] <IIIEars> !display
[11:49] <ubotu> methinks display is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/FixVideoResolutionHowto or ask !Resolution
[11:49] <IIIEars> !ubotu japanese is http://jp.ubuntuguide.org/  Thank You Chua Wen Kiat.
[11:49] <ubotu> okay, IIIEars
[11:49] <cssia> chol, does thoreauputic's way work too?  its easier
[11:49] <chol> thoreauputic, false in default-displ.. is better yeah
[11:49] <IIIEars> !ubotu jp is http://jp.ubuntuguide.org/  Thank You Chua Wen Kiat.
[11:49] <ubotu> okay, IIIEars
[11:49] <cssia> chol, thanks
[11:50] <chol> ancientorange, have you set 'client signing = yes' in smb.conf_
[11:50] <ancientorange> chol, nope :-(
[11:50] <chol> ancientorange, it was the first suggestion that came up on google ;p
[11:51] <chol> ancientorange, http://www.google.se/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&c2coff=1&client=firefox&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aunofficial&q=cli_negprot%3A+SMB+signing+is+mandatory+and+we+have+disabled+it.&btnG=Search
[11:51] <scizho> anyone uses ubuntu for thin client?
[11:52] <batma8> hey guys
[11:52] <ancientorange> chol, where is smbconf supposed to be ?
[11:53] <joe_> anyone knows where the menu conifg file for gnome 2.10 lies
[11:53] <batma8> my dvd playback works well with xine..however it is choppy
[11:53] <ancientorange> chol, whereis smbconf doesnt return anything
[11:53] <dabugas> hi
[11:53] <batma8> anyone have any ideas?
[11:53] <joe_> ancient /etc/samba
[11:53] <dabugas> i was fiddling with the keyboard layouts in the kde control center and for some reason the (') has turned into accent and the (") into umlauts. any way I can reset xkb? (just "default"ing everything in the control panel didn't work.)
[11:53] <hondje> joe_: install smeg
[11:53] <THe_AntiPop> how do you open .sh files?
[11:53] <orlandu> I have set my screen resolution to 1152x864 in xorg.conf, and used the screen resolution tool (hoary gnome desktop) to set the desktop size to 1152x864, and told it to make it the default. But when I reboot, the desktop size goes back to 1600x1200, so I have to pan around and reset it every time I boot - can anyone tell me how to make my preference permanent?
[11:53] <thoreauputic> THe_AntiPop: you don't - you run them
[11:53] <nalioth> THe_AntiPop: you dont
[11:53] <THe_AntiPop> ok
[11:53] <dabugas> THe_AntiPop: they are shell scripts. Open them with your favorite file editor.
[11:53] <hondje> THe_AntiPop: You don't, you use chmod to make them executable, then run them by entering sh <name>
[11:53] <joe_> i'm having problems with the python gtk versioning, thats why i don't install smeg
[11:53] <nalioth> THe_AntiPop: you execute them in a terminal
[11:53] <thoreauputic> THe_AntiPop: unless you want to edit the script
[11:54] <chol> ancientorange, its a config file
[11:54] <THe_AntiPop> but every time i un in the terminal it pops up then goes away
[11:54] <chol> ancientorange, perhaps look in /etc/samba
[11:54] <nalioth> hondje: chmod isnt necessary if you preface your file.sh with sh
[11:54] <hondje> nalioth: hrm, I should remember that :)
[11:54] <hondje> thanks
[11:54] <THe_AntiPop> huh?
[11:55] <ante_> Does Ubuntu base system contain x11?
[11:55] <joe_> ./please run
[11:55] <thoreauputic> THe_AntiPop: what are you trying to run?
[11:55] <THe_AntiPop> an installer
[11:55] <joe_> or bash pleaserun.sh
[11:55] <THe_AntiPop> for corssoveroffice
[11:55] <mjr> ante_, the default install contains; I don't think the base does
[11:55] <dabugas> THe_AntiPop: a .sh file just executes a bunch of shell commands. (maybe simple, maybe complex. depends) what are you trying to do?
[11:55] <ante_> mjr ok thx
[11:55] <joe_> just in case it is not executable
[11:55] <IIIEars> ubotu Portugus is http://pt.ubuntuguide.org/   Obrigado Autor: Chua Wen Kiat Co-Autor: Marco Da Silva Helper PT: Tiago Geada
[11:55] <ubotu> i'm not going to learn illegal characters, IIIEars
[11:56] <THe_AntiPop> jsut install something
[11:56] <THe_AntiPop> its an install file
[11:56] <joe_> so do ./install.sh
[11:56] <dabugas> are you using a graphical file manager or a terminal to run it?
[11:56] <joe_> or bash ./install.sh
[11:56] <thoreauputic> IIIEars: heh - doesn't like your punctuation I guess
[11:56] <orlandu> xhaker, I tried your suggestion - the screen resolution set to what I wanted when I booted, but the desktop was still oversized, and I had to pan and use the screen resolution tool again. It doesn't seem to be remembering my choice!
