[12:01] <bobbyd> pike_: yes, like I said, I think something is broken :(
[12:01] <MuffY> cmon mwe , play with me
[12:01] <crimsun> adam_, what's the issue with that? (You'll have to switch it to the onboard in the sound selector first)
[12:01] <mwe> MuffY: heh
[12:01] <Tann> _Snatch_: i don't have it
[12:01] <GoodSoft> I can't install Canon MP160 on Ubuntu
[12:01] <MuffY> it's simple
[12:01] <mwe> pong?
[12:01] <hjmills> Slart: as long as it has width and height in im happy basically
[12:01] <MuffY> |    .
[12:01] <MuffY> . |
[12:01] <MuffY> etc etc
[12:01] <mwe> |   .
[12:02] <MuffY>                      .           |
[12:02] <pike_> bobbyd: mind pasting your sources.list ?
[12:02] <arrenlex> MuffY: How about playing that in a private message instead?
[12:02] <mwe> lol
[12:02] <mnoir> sharp15: you trying anything fancy?
[12:02] <pike_> !paste | bobbyd
[12:02] <ubotu> bobbyd: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:02] <LinTux> thanks everybody, sorted now
[12:02] <MuffY> sorry arrenlex
[12:02] <sharp15> mnoir: except they were working fine yesterday and i haven't changed anything.
[12:02] <MuffY> i've done to much today, i'm a bit in a strange mood
[12:02] <MuffY> too much**
[12:03] <sharp15> mnoir: nothing fancy.  sshd is allowing a user with a local account to login remotely, proftpd is sharing a couple of files, both only for my home network.
[12:03] <_Snatch_> Tann: use gtkwifi
[12:03] <mwe> MuffY: after you showed me that game I won't need quake4 or something like that anymore ;)
[12:03] <AidanL> It would appear that I have failed again with Ubuntu:( Damn Wireless.
[12:03] <mnoir> sharp15: i dunno then.  the fact that both are screwing up is a clue
[12:03] <cge> I'm trying to transfer some large files from an Ubuntu server to an Ubuntu laptop connected with 100Mb ethernet. For some reason, the maximum transfer rate I'm getting is around 1 MiB/s. Is there some way I can speed this up? I'm having trouble locating the bottleneck, but it seems like it is on the receiving end.
[12:03] <pike_> AidanL: ?

[12:04] <jasin> http://gtkwifi.sourceforge.net/
[12:04] <mnoir> sharp15: i am having problems coming up with the common thing
[12:04] <AidanL> Pike: I can't get my wireless working. I had trouble with my last wireless adaptor and my new one still won't work with it lol.
[12:04] <pike_> AidanL: not a usb adaptor right?
[12:04] <mwe> MuffY: actually the solitaire games beat the windows ones
[12:04] <AidanL> It is a USB adaptor.
[12:04] <jasin> !wifi
[12:04] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:04] <hjmills> Slart: I think compare -size would work but i cant get it to work on the whole fir
[12:05] <MuffY> GNOME Robots is a game where you try and avoid a band of marauding robots which are, for no adequately explained reason, trying to kill you.<< omg, i'm going to play this for hours
[12:05] <_Snatch_> AidanL: guess youre having the same problm as Tann
[12:05] <Tann> _Snatch_: i don't have gtkwifi either
[12:05] <hjmills> s/fir/dir
[12:05] <sharp15> mnoir: i'll try removing xinetd from the runlevel and rebooting.  that's the last thing i changed.
[12:05] <jasin> !wifi | AidanL
[12:05] <ubotu> AidanL: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:05] <mwe> MuffY: good luck
[12:05] <MuffY> ty mwe
[12:05] <mnoir> sharp15: pls let me know
[12:05] <cge> MuffY: Enjoy it now, as it is quite possible that it will be removed from gnome-games in the near future.
[12:05] <_Snatch_> install it using a package manager
[12:05] <AidanL> Ill take a look.
[12:05] <sharp15> mnoir: will do.
[12:05] <MuffY> do you also have a spare laser gun or something?
[12:06] <jasin> supertux was removed :(
[12:06] <Tann> ok
[12:06] <adam_> crimsun... ok, here we go. ICH5 on alsa mixer. p5p800 asus motherboard. Analog devices ad1985 on oss mixer. Have changed to alsa. In the tests I don't here anything. I have done this before but can't any longer.
[12:06] <cge> MuffY: No. You have nothing except a teleporter. You have to get the robots to run into each other.
[12:06] <_Snatch_> AidanL: was your wireless usb adaptor by Belkin??
[12:06] <Q_Continuum> Any wiki page on which identifying the proper kernel to install?  (Have an AMD-64 FX-60 - dual core, so need SMP)
[12:06] <crimsun> adam_, pastebin your ``amixer''
[12:07] <arrenlex> Q_Continuum: The -generic kernel is all you need.
[12:07] <AidanL> Yes it was. - SNATCH
[12:07] <mwe> !info supertux
[12:07] <ubotu> supertux: Classic 2D jump 'n run sidescroller with Tux. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1.3-1.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 228 kB, installed size 548 kB
[12:07] <_Snatch_> Tann: so can you open gtkwifi
[12:07] <Q_Continuum> arrenlex, no benefit to running any other, for a desktop?
[12:07] <cntb> games ? check billardGL
[12:07] <MuffY> cge: i read that in the description, but a laser gun could come in handy
[12:07] <mwe> jasin: appearently supertux is still around ^^
[12:07] <Q_Continuum> or does it auto-detect now?
[12:07] <MuffY> so if anyone has one collecting dust in the basement...
[12:07] <adam_> sorry crimsun, not with ya there....
[12:07] <arrenlex> Q_Continuum: Not really. There's more information about pros\cons here:
[12:07] <arrenlex> !generic | Q_Continuum
[12:07] <ubotu> Q_Continuum: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[12:08] <Q_Continuum> thanks
[12:08] <jasin> mwe, yes, its installable via apt-get
[12:08] <cge> MuffY: There are variants of the robots game, like torus on the sdf server, that allow you to blow up robots.
[12:08] <AidanL> snatch: Does that make a huge difference if my adaptor is made by Belkin?
[12:08] <hjmills> Slart: don't worry - i did it the manual way with nautilus...
[12:08] <jasin> apt-get install supertux
[12:08] <Slart> hjmills, identify works better
[12:08] <mwe> jasin: but you said it was removed ?
[12:08] <_Snatch_> AidanL: my belkin  usb adapter works fine
[12:08] <Tann> _Snatch_: not there
[12:08] <mwe> jasin: you mean from your computer ?
[12:08] <Slart> hjmills: hehe.. ok :)
[12:08] <cge> Does anyone know of a quick benchmark for writing speed and for network throughput?
[12:08] <AidanL> I see.... How is yours configured?.
[12:08] <cntb> where in kUbuntu can I tune current color depth ?
[12:09] <fiendskull9> hey!
[12:09] <jasin> mwe, it is, it was removed from kde games or gnomes games, forget which one
[12:09] <fiendskull9> anyone familiar with the quota and edquota commands?

[12:18] <lhkjhkjh> i downloaded the one from ubuntu.com
[12:18] <lumaQQ> MWE  i told you before   there is no FREE space on there.   i dont kno where it is...
[12:18] <Pan7h3r> lmao _Snatch_
[12:18] <Slart> lhkjhkjh: ok, I haven't seen that particular error before but there is an alternat install cd that perhaps works better
[12:18] <pike_> they made a decision (probably correct) that anyone shouldnt be able to train him so hes not too bright
[12:19] <lhkjhkjh> where do i download the cd?
[12:19] <Innomen> how do i start up the gonme network manager, how do i connect the applet or whatever to the task bar, how do i make it go? :P
[12:19] <lhkjhkjh> i downloaded the cd from the ubuntu.com
[12:19] <mwe> lumaQQ: then you need to delete something first or it's broken
[12:19] <lhkjhkjh> and it gets me this ERROR: SOFT L
[12:19] <Slart> lhkjhkjh: I don't have the url.. but it's on the offical ubuntu site

[12:19] <lhkjhkjh> so u want me to download alternate cd?

[12:20] <hjmills> Slart: wow! thanks so much

[12:20] <lumaQQ> ok

[12:26] <drivingmenuts> not sure how to install ubuntu
[12:26] <drivingmenuts> ok
[12:26] <elbeto> I tried to reconfigure the xserver-xorg but it dind't help

[12:28] <bruenig> or without the *
[12:28] <drivingmenuts> so what's the different betwwen ubuntu alternate cd?
[12:28] <bruenig> just ls | grep .jpg
[12:28] <hassan2a> join #ubuntu-fr
[12:28] <xtknight> a recursive grep would be `grep -R ./* *.jpg`   i think

[12:49] <drivingmenuts> noone knows about bug
[12:49] <funkja> drivingmenuts: listen. no one here knows why it isn't working. The bug report hasn't been resolved so no one there knows either. We told you to install from the alternate cd. That might work. Please try that now.
[12:49] <crimsun> drivingmenuts, did you answer my question regarding dapper (6.06)?
[12:49] <Slart> hjmills: no problem.. these things are good to know.. I learned as much as you did =)
[12:49] <drivingmenuts> dapper?
[12:49] <bds> hjmills: and find supports it but since we are both weak on regex, it *works* o_o
[12:50] <drivingmenuts> can i ask u a question crimsun
[12:50] <drivingmenuts> what's the different between dapper and edgy
[12:50] <hjmills> bds: yeah - i would have thought so but evidently not - im just lookin to make it ignore case now - thanks again
[12:50] <hjmills> drivingmenuts: same as the diff between win2k and winxp - just less pronounced

[12:55] <Two-Six> yep
[12:55] <Two-Six> kernel header whats that
[12:55] <roman> ubotu piszesz po polsku ?
[12:55] <xtknight> Two-Six: it's the source code for your kernel, you need it to compile modules
[12:55] <Two-Six> why do you need to compile a module

[12:55] <Two-Six> what is a module
[12:55] <sharp15> Two-Six: header files are used to define functions.  they keep code organized.
[12:55] <arrenlex> NET||abuse: This line works for me. Maybe it will help you. export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/base/mine/bin
[12:55] <xtknight> Two-Six: a module is a driver

[12:56] <NET||abuse> nope, i'm on dapper here too

[12:56] <xtknight> Two-Six: what are you trying to do?
[12:56] <arrenlex> Slart: grep ^[we]
[12:57] <Two-Six> ok, so when you compile a module then you use the make file and that looks at the install file in you unpacked thing diorectory

[12:57] <ubotu> andre: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:57] <jasin> why you runing dapper?

[12:58] <andre> a have amsn but it needs to be upgraded hoe do you do that
[12:58] <Two-Six> yep and I have tried to compile a madwifi thing
[12:58] <jasin> My wifi card is supported in the kernel
[12:58] <Two-Six> and also a d-link driver

[01:00] <Two-Six> I can see a folder where it looks like they are in
[01:00] <xtknight> Two-Six: type this exactly as it is after the colon (tildes and all.  u didnt type it right the first time): sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[01:00] <xkhing> hmm .. that kind of didnt help me
[01:00] <crimsun> adam_, triaging now
[01:00] <Slart> arrenlex: ah. .found it.. should have used egrep instead.. then it works..
[01:00] <Two-Six> and replace the uname -r with what?
[01:00] <xtknight> xkhing: i think hes telling u to go to #kubuntu for kubuntu support
[01:00] <sharp15> i'm really confused.  my ssh and ftp servers were barely running as it was.
[01:00] <xkhing> oh im sorry ..
[01:01] <xtknight> Two-Six: dont replace it with anything.  the PC processes uname -r and replaces it itself
[01:01] <arrenlex> Slart: This seems to work: grep ["ash""mon"]

[01:05] <xtknight> phr34ck: 1920x1200 is the biggest resolution for a 15.4, but some are lower

[01:05] <phr34ck> Man, I'm having hard times.
[01:05] <arrenlex> Moosebuntu: -r should work.
[01:06] <TWD> Can someone help me set up RAID 5 during the Ubuntu Server install?
[01:06] <phr34ck> Any of you using 15.4"?
[01:06] <IndyGunFreak> phr34ck, i'm running 19in LCD, 75hz at 1280x1024, and it looks great
[01:06] <arrenlex> Moosebuntu: Confirmed that -r works.
[01:06] <Moosebuntu> arrenlex> I'm trying to do this: sudo cp -r /home/asenn/Data/q3wf/extracted/WFA35Engine /usr/local/games/quake3
[01:06] <Slart> hjmills: ok.. should have used egrep instead of grep.. egrep understands more regular expressions.. here's a new version      for i in $(ls | egrep "(\.jpg|\.tif|\.gif|\.bmp)"); do identify -format "%i %w %h" $i; done
[01:06] <linuxnewbie756> how can i update firefox to <IP_ADDRESS>? i know how to download the tar.gz and use it, but i want to update my system, is it possible, and is it safe?
[01:06] <phr34ck> !ecplise
[01:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ecplise - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:06] <Slart> !eclipse
[01:06] <Moosebuntu> arrenlex> there are two subdirs in WFA35Engine that are not copying
[01:06] <ubotu> eclipse: Extensible Tool Platform and Java IDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 121 kB, installed size 412 kB
[01:06] <IndyGunFreak> phr34ck,  i'd say try 1028x764
[01:06] <phr34ck> The problem with this LCD is that it's 15.4", which means wild screen.
[01:07] <phr34ck> wide*
[01:07] <xtknight> lol
[01:07] <VerdRousseau> when does fiesty official release
[01:07] <IndyGunFreak> oh, a wide screen
[01:07] <Two-Six> XT KNIGHT: ITS DOING MORE STUFF
[01:07] <phr34ck> so it sucks big time man.
[01:07] <IndyGunFreak> VerdRousseau, probably around 5mo I'd guess
[01:07] <Moosebuntu> I am tempted to sudo Nautilus just to get them copied
[01:07] <xtknight> phr34ck: you can increase font size in eclipse preferences
[01:07] <phr34ck> I cannot find anything comfortable.
[01:07] <linuxnewbie756> how can i update firefox?
[01:07] <phr34ck> xtknight, it's eclipse, firefox ... you name it ;p
[01:07] <Slart> hehe.. I have to ask if they have wild screens next time I'm at the local computer shop... ;)
[01:08] <tsoler> hello
[01:08] <phr34ck> Some websites are totally unreadable because of the font.
[01:08] <Two-Six> xtknight: IT'S STILL DOING STUFF
[01:08] <EvilMike> I'm not exactly sure how to get my sound card working. lspci shows "04:02.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy LS" but I don't actually know how to make it work
[01:08] <xtknight> Two-Six: good :P
[01:08] <bds> Moosebuntu: try -R
[01:08] <xtknight> phr34ck: well firefox has a font option heheh
[01:08] <cybercod> hello again everyone
[01:08] <jughead> hello howdy
[01:08] <Two-Six> XTKnightWhat's it doing
[01:08] <EvilMike> Also I've disabled the integrated audio that comes with the motherboard
[01:08] <xtknight> phr34ck: aside from firefox and eclipse, increase DPI using Fonts preferences
[01:08] <EvilMike> since that never worked anyway
[01:08] <xtknight> Two-Six: it should be compiling your module (wireless driver)
[01:08] <Moosebuntu> bds> trying now
[01:08] <arrenlex> Slart: Why not just ls *.jpg *.tif *.gif *.bmp
[01:08] <tsoler> does google earth has new drivers for ubuntu?
[01:09] <xtknight> tsoler: google earth doesnt have drivers
[01:09] <vulcanius> EvilMike: have you messed with your volumes?
[01:09] <EvilMike> yeah ;p
[01:09] <theflyingfool> does google have any other programs than google earth that are linux native
[01:09] <xtknight> tsoler: it uses NVIDIA/ATI/Intel/xorg drivers
[01:09] <Slart> arrenlex: hehe.. don't ruin it now.. but sure.. that might work
[01:09] <xtknight> theflyingfool: they have Picasa but it is not linux native
[01:09] <Slart> arrenlex: the find-command also works
[01:09] <phr34ck> xtknight, what font are you using ?
[01:09] <Moosebuntu> bds> that copied the folder ITSELF to the destination directory.  I only want to copy the CONTENTS to the dest.  How can I do this?
[01:09] <cybercod> i heard they were gonna bring google desktop ... but it hasn't happened yer
[01:09] <cybercod> *yet
[01:09] <Two-Six> XTKnight: that did loads of stuff.....
[01:10] <Slart> cybercod: doesn't beagle offer the same features?
[01:10] <EvilMike> vulcanius: The speakers are on. Also if I go into the sound volume control it's fine, but my sound card doesn't even show up there in the sound devices
[01:10] <xtknight> phr34ck: i'm running 1680x1050 widescreen 20.1", font family: "Sans" size 10 for all the listboxes, subpixel LCD smoothing
[01:10] <linuxnewbie756> picasa works if you install the deb, but techically it uses wine
[01:10] <bds> Moosebuntu: Can you please paste the command you are using again?
[01:10] <andre> im trying to install and upgrade to amsn from 0.95 to 0.96 how do i install the upgrde and the package what command do i use, i already have amsn on but not the upgrade?
[01:10] <tsoler> ive noticed that it doesnot promp me anymore for imporer video driver
[01:10] <Nighthawke> how can i change my video cards and drivers in a 6.10 enviro
[01:10] <vulcanius> EvilMike, join #vulcanius
[01:10] <theflyingfool> How well does edgy run on laptops?
[01:10] <bds> Moosebuntu: I think this is what you want
[01:10] <xtknight> Two-Six: it does indeed do a lot of stuff, just wait till its all done
[01:10] <Moosebuntu>  sudo cp -R /home/asenn/Data/q3wf/extracted/WFA35Engine /usr/local/games/quake3
[01:11] <cybercod> what are the main benefits of edgy over dapper?
[01:11] <arrenlex> cybercod: Dapper isn't getting any new versions of packages. Just bugfixes.
[01:11] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ok! i'm using gentoo but i've heard that some ubuntu users had same problem as i have!actually after some updates i've lost SHUTDOWN button in Gnome Menu!anybody has solution???
[01:11] <Moosebuntu> bds> The contents of the source dir need to be output directly, without the folder name from the source.
[01:11] <Slart> cyber_brain_mfkg: can't you edit the menu and put it back?
[01:11] <bds> Moosebuntu: cp -R /home/asenn/Data/q3wf/extracted/WFA34Engine/* /usr/local/games/quake3
[01:11] <cybercod> good to know
[01:12] <Moosebuntu> bds> ok i'll try
[01:12] <bds> Moosebuntu: I think you need the astrisk to copy all files
[01:12] <cyber_brain_mfkg> Slart, nope!
[01:12] <linuxnewbie756> when is 7.10 supposed to come out? fiesty fawn isn't it?
[01:12] <Moosebuntu> bds> heck yea!  That worked!  Thank you much!
[01:12] <bds> Moosebuntu: np :)
[01:12] <Moosebuntu> bds> will *.* work too?
[01:13] <andre>  how do you install and upgraded version of amsn
[01:13] <bimberi> !feisty | linuxnewbie756
[01:13] <ubotu> linuxnewbie756: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1
[01:13] <andre>  im trying to install and upgrade to amsn from 0.95 to 0.96 how do i install the upgrde and the package what command do i use, i already have amsn on but not the upgrade?
[01:13] <cyber_brain_mfkg> Slart, u had same problem?
[01:14] <binarydigit> andre: did you download the package ?
[01:14] <linuxnewbie756> how hard will it be to upgrade to fiesty fawn? will we have to install from a disk, or can we just dl an upgrade using synaptic, or the like?
[01:14] <Slart> cyber_brain_mfkg: well.. not menu-items.. but I've had buttons die on me.. but I could just launch a little panel-editor thingy and put them back (ubuntu 6.10)
[01:14] <bds> Moosebuntu: I am not sure I understand *.*
[01:14] <binarydigit> linuxnewbie756: you'll be able to just upgrade using synaptic
[01:14] <pike_> cyber_brain_mfkg: System >> Administration >> Login Window. Then make sure that "Show Actions Menu" is checked  first maybe
[01:14] <TWD> I need someone to walk me through setting up RAID 5 using the parition utility during the install.
[01:14] <arrenlex> linuxnewbie756: feisty isn't even released yet. Why do you want it?
[01:14] <bimberi> linuxnewbie756: Using the Update Manager I expect
[01:14] <Moosebuntu>  sudo cp -R /home/asenn/Data/q3wf/extracted/WFA35Engine/*.* /usr/local/games/quake3
[01:14] <andre> yes a tarz.bz2 is that that write one for ubuntu
[01:15] <linuxnewbie756> i don't want it, just looking forward to another lts
[01:15] <compengi> andre, if you got a new version as a source then you need to compile it
[01:15] <linuxnewbie756> i tried 6.10, it didn't work so well for me
[01:15] <compengi> andre, yeah it's a source package then you need to extract it and compile it
[01:16] <bimberi> linuxnewbie756: I doubt that 7.04 will be LTS
[01:16] <bds> Moosebuntu: I believe that would copy all files/folders which had a dot in the name
[01:16] <linuxnewbie756> really...i heard about an upcoming version that will be lts. is it 7.10? if so, thats farther away
[01:16] <cyber_brain_mfkg> pike_, it wasn't checked!i've checked it!
[01:16] <bds> Moosebuntu: I think folders are treated as files in Linux
[01:16] <Moosebuntu> bds> ok, thx :)
[01:16] <cyber_brain_mfkg> pike_, what now?
[01:16] <pike_> cyber_brain_mfkg: hopefully that was it
[01:16] <darksmiley> hey guys, how can you UNDELETE files on EXT3?
[01:16] <darksmiley> is it possible?
[01:17] <pike_> cyber_brain_mfkg: logout/backin
[01:17] <bimberi> linuxnewbie756: 7.10 would make more sense (every 18 months)
[01:17] <genius314> Is there a good anti-virus and/or firewall for linux?
[01:17] <pike_> cyber_brain_mfkg: or just pkill gnome-panel maybe
[01:17] <andre> how do you compile a package
[01:17] <nick_p> I am one happy ubuntu user. Got it to work today on my Mac, booting off external USB :-) Yay.
[01:17] <gizmo_the_great1> hi. Trying to burn a DVD using GnomeBaker. I have several files, all of which are 3.9Gb. Whenever I try to drag them to the Data DVD project area, nothing happens. But if I try with some other files, it works OK. As I type I am using Nautilus to burn the DVD instead but I would like to know what the problem might be?
[01:17] <bds> nick_p: what type of mac?
[01:17] <phr34ck> hey, can I download ecplise via apt-get ?
[01:17] <linuxnewbie756> ok. what is it with 6.10, anyone besides me have trouble with it? i tried it, switched back to 6.06
[01:17] <nick_p> bds: MacBook
[01:17] <darksmiley> genius314: both are available on synaptic... iptables with firestarter UI is good for a firewall
[01:17] <xtknight> phr34ck: yes
[01:18] <Two-Six> XT Knight: Tried to  sudo ndiswrapper -l and it says:
[01:18] <Two-Six> wg311v2 : invalid driver!
[01:18] <genius314> darksmiley: Thanks.
[01:18] <bds> nick_p: congrats, I asked earlier if anyone had done it
[01:18] <java_probs> anybody here know why java would freeze up firefox
[01:18] <cyber_brain_mfkg> pike_, that was it! thanx man!
[01:18] <xtknight> Two-Six: what step are you on
[01:18] <phr34ck> what's the name of the package?
[01:18] <phr34ck> ecplise is not found
[01:18] <pike_> cyber_brain_mfkg: np :)
[01:18] <bds> nick_p: thinking of buying a macbook
[01:18] <xtknight> phr34ck: apt-cache search eclipse
[01:18] <Two-Six> when I try to sudo ndiswrapper -i wg311v2.inf  it says driver wg311v2 is already installed
[01:18] <darksmiley> can you UNDELETE on EXT3?
[01:19] <xtknight> phr34ck: its just called eclipse, u may need universe or multiverse
[01:19] <java_probs> I just installed it, but when it goes to load on the page, it displays the java picture sometimes, then after a minute firefox freezes
[01:19] <compengi> andre, you should first extract it and then with the terminal enter the folder using "cd" command... then when you are in the folder of the source package you need to type the following commands "./configure" then "make" then "make install"
[01:19] <phr34ck> nothing is returned ...
[01:19] <bimberi> darksmiley:
[01:19] <Two-Six> XT KNight STEP 5
[01:19] <bimberi> darksmiley: no
[01:19] <xtknight> !repositories | phr34ck
[01:19] <ubotu> phr34ck: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[01:19] <xevil> darksmiley: it ain't going to happen,,,
[01:19] <darksmiley> it's actually impossible?
[01:19] <phr34ck> xtknight, I know that.
[01:19] <phr34ck> I have them all opened.
[01:19] <darksmiley> the thing is, i actually deleted some files that i should have shredded
[01:19] <gizmo_the_great1> darksmiley: not with file recovery software like EnCase, Access Data's Forensic Toolkit etc
[01:19] <pike_> darksmiley: e2undel  but im not sure if it works with journaling
[01:19] <phr34ck> Main, Universe, Multiverse and the other one.
[01:19] <xtknight> phr34ck: try `sudo apt-get update`
[01:19] <nick_p> bds: the only unusual thing was to do apt-get install 915resolution to get the native resolution support in X. Wireless works, using it now. However, for some reason it didn't associate for a while...
[01:19] <java_probs> I installed from respritories then I tried to install the version off of the sun website
[01:19] <xevil> darksmiley: http://batleth.sapienti-sat.org/projects/FAQs/ext3-faq.html
[01:20] <java_probs> all installs successed, but it still does not work right in firefox
[01:20] <gizmo_the_great1> darksmiley: not without file recovery software like EnCase, Access Data's Forensic Toolkit etc
[01:20] <darksmiley> so, if the files are actually 100% unrecoverable, then it doesn't really matter
[01:20] <darksmiley> because they are gone anyway
[01:20] <xtknight> Two-Six: well it looks like youre about done, try rebooting?
[01:20] <maddash> what are shadow passwords?
[01:20] <phr34ck> I do that all the time, but will do it now.
[01:20] <bimberi> darksmiley: i've seen a procedure written somewhere, iirc it begins with powering off the computer immediately
[01:20] <maddash> are they simply hashed text files?
[01:20] <xtknight> Two-Six: well do step 6 and 7 and the nreboot
[01:20] <Two-Six> XTknight: so why does the test fail, needs a re-boot
[01:20] <gizmo_the_great1> darksmiley: for security reasons wipe the disk using shred or something. They cannot be recovered easily, but they can be recovered
[01:20] <xtknight> phr34ck: do you have dapper or edgy?
[01:20] <bds> nick_p: sweet, I am looking to buy a macbook pro and load ubuntu on it in the spring
[01:20] <nick_p> bds: and most important test of all: porn videos work
[01:21] <phr34ck> dapper
[01:21] <darksmiley> i can't wipe the disk it is my main disk
[01:21] <bds> nick_p: schwing :)
[01:21] <xtknight> Two-Six: im not sure, i've never used ndiswrapper sorry
[01:21] <darksmiley> i thought though, if i were to copy and paste a file over and over until the entire disk was full, and then remove all those files, it would cover up the deleted data right?
[01:22] <Two-Six> XT knight do you know anything about madwifi?  What are the diffrences between ndiswrapper, aceros drivers, mad wifi drivers??
[01:22] <binarydigit> darksmiley: you could run a free space secure wipe
[01:22] <xtknight> darksmiley: that's basically correct but people with way too much time on their hands can still recover it using the hard drive's magnetics
[01:22] <smo> hi
[01:22] <java_probs> so nobody knows anything about java problems in firefox?
[01:22] <smo> http://pastebin.com/849266   what s wrong with ati !!!
[01:22] <compengi> andre, if you got some missing packages while compiling then you should run "sudo apt-get build-dep amsn"
[01:22] <xtknight> Two-Six: sorry, i'm not sure, all i know is that ndiswrapper converts Windows drivers to linux ones, and the other two are native drivers
[01:22] <darksmiley> rofl xtknight
[01:23] <cyber_brain_mfkg> i have problem installing nvidia drivers(and nvidia-settings)! actually it says that cannot find .config in kernel source(something like that):S !!!someone?(i'm running  gentoo)!
[01:23] <darksmiley> what is a free space secure wipe? where can i get a program to do that?
[01:23] <Two-Six> XTknight: are they all drivers that do almost the same thing but with better support for different chipsets?
[01:23] <gizmo_the_great1> darksmiley: use 'shred'
[01:23] <xtknight> Two-Six: that's very likely.  what wireless card do you have?
[01:23] <gizmo_the_great1> darksmiley: altrhough that will wipe everything
[01:23] <darksmiley> oh, it has parameters for that?
[01:23] <andre> thanks will try
[01:24] <darksmiley> this is annoying! those files are tiiiiiny... lol
[01:24] <gizmo_the_great1> xtknight: not just people with spare time on their hands...forensic computing investigators too :-)
[01:24] <Two-Six> XTknight: well I have a Netgear WG311v2 and a D-Link PCMCIA DWL-G650+ hardware version B1
[01:24] <phr34ck> Guys, any good alternatives for gaim ?
[01:25] <AoA> hello, I was trying to compile and istall modem driver for intel 537 and this is my errors :http://pastebin.ca/299995 , can somebody help me ?
[01:25] <Two-Six> I really want to use aircrack,
[01:25] <doviende> phr34ck: which protocols do you use?
[01:25] <pike_> darksmiley: well like cat /dev/urandom > file; rm file. but id just make the stuff thats sensitive on a ext2 partition and use wipe or something to del.  ive never really worked with sensitive company stuff or anything myself
[01:25] <homemaus> \join
[01:25] <binarydigit> darksmiley: check out bcwipe
[01:25] <phr34ck> doviende, what do you mean ?>
[01:25] <binarydigit> it has a freespace secure wipe
[01:25] <darksmiley> thanks both of you, give me a moment to try
[01:25] <doviende> phr34ck: msn, icq, aol, jabber?
[01:26] <Two-Six> XTknight: But getting wifi radar to work right now would be good
[01:26] <phr34ck> owh hehe .. msn
[01:26] <_Neil_> Can someone help me? I want to install Ubuntu.
[01:26] <doviende> phr34ck: ok, there's a program called "amsn" that works pretty well
[01:26] <xtknight> Two-Six: i dont have much experience with wireless cards but i assume by radar you mean what detects access points?
[01:26] <phr34ck> doviende, thanks .. will give it a try
[01:27] <Two-Six> XTknight: yep, it's a native Ubuntu App
[01:27] <andre> compengi i dont understand about cd
[01:27] <Two-Six> wifi radar
[01:27] <phr34ck> Do you know how can I "clean" up my system?
[01:27] <derrik> _Neil_: Sure have you downloaded it?
[01:27] <phr34ck> After all those updates, installations and the like.
[01:27] <andre> sorry newbie
[01:27] <doviende> phr34ck: why, do you see something that's wrong?
[01:27] <bds> Two-Six: You can scan with 'sudo iwlist scan eth1'
[01:27] <compengi> andre, to enter a folder using a terminal you need to type "cd folder" in order to enter it
[01:28] <adorablepuppy> Need help.
[01:28] <phr34ck> doviende, no .. but I feel like I need to do something ... It's like I'm downloading 2, 3 programs for the same job
[01:28] <bds> Two-Six: Sorry that should be 'sudo iwlist eth1 scan'
[01:28] <doviende> !justask | adorablepuppy
[01:28] <fildo> hey guys if ive installed gnome by default. n wish to switch to kde, for default Desktop enviroment . would it be as simple as apt-get kubuntu-desktop . and how could i remove gnome
[01:28] <ubotu> adorablepuppy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:28] <andre> so it would be cd amsn-0.96
[01:28] <wastrel> !mp3

[01:28] <phr34ck> In windows, I used to clean the system with registry stuff and the like.
[01:28] <andre> in a terminal
[01:28] <compengi> andre, yeah
[01:28] <phr34ck> What do I do with Ubuntu >
[01:29] <andre> ok
[01:29] <Two-Six> BDS: I think I should change to eth1 to wlan or something
[01:29] <doviende> phr34ck: if you see some programs you don't want, then you can remove them
[01:29] <tritium> phr34ck: you don't have to do anything
[01:29] <doviende> personally i think you might be too paranoid ;)
[01:29] <phr34ck> doviende, I don't know how to remove programs ;p
[01:29] <bds> Two-Six: Sorry whatever your wireless adapter is
[01:29] <bds> Two-Six: for me it is eth1
[01:29] <phr34ck> yeah I know ;p
[01:29] <doviende> phr34ck: ok, what did you use to install programs?
[01:29] <adorablepuppy> I'm trying to use beryl. However, when I start it, it gives me errors even though my glxinfo | grep rendering says direct rendering: Yes.
[01:29] <phr34ck> Been using Windows all my life.
[01:29] <VerdRousseau> I just installed gtkwifi and its up on my panel but its having trouble connecting to my network (wireless works fine without applet)
[01:30] <superjoe> does anyone have time to help me w a wireless problem
[01:30] <phr34ck> apt-get
[01:30] <trev__> does anyoen here play vegastrike?
[01:30] <doviende> phr34ck: you can do    "apt-get remove somepackage" to remove it
[01:30] <maddash> frak me, where's h3xis?
[01:30] <Two-Six> BDS: no scanning supported right now
[01:30] <phr34ck> Here comes the tricky part ... I don't remember what I have on my system. That's why I want to clean. It's odd, I know.
[01:30] <phr34ck> So how do I know what programs I have installed ?
[01:31] <binarydigit> phr34ck: open synaptic and look through which are installed
[01:31] <adorablepuppy> You can use Synaptic package manager
[01:31] <bds> Two-Six: Is your wireless device working?
[01:31] <hendrickvp> HHHEEELLPPPP! I was using mysql admin, the program on my mac, and I accidently deleted my MySQL user database!
[01:31] <doviende> phr34ck: you could browse through stuff with a graphical program like Synaptic
[01:31] <superjoe> anyone hp laptop broadcom802.11 g wireless w linksys wrt54g cant connect
[01:31] <Two-Six> BDS: NO!!!! :-)
[01:31] <phr34ck> doviende, doesn't synaptic gives me the packages installed?
[01:31] <doviende> phr34ck: or in text mode you can do "dpkg -l" to list every single package installed
[01:31] <bds> Two-Six: Doh, sorry :0
[01:31] <Two-Six> BDS: sssssssssssOK
[01:31] <rendo> I'm currently using no-ip to have a dns resolver for my IP to host a MUD,  I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to get a URL redirecter to work with my IP as well?
[01:31] <compengi> phr34ck, yeah it does
[01:31] <doviende> phr34ck: yes, synaptic lists the packages installed, and can install new ones or remove stuff
[01:32] <hendrickvp> does anyone know how to recover the schema
[01:32] <adorablepuppy> anyone to help me with my beryl issues?
[01:32] <phr34ck> doviende, so programs are packages in herE>
[01:32] <phr34ck> each package is a program ?
[01:32] <binarydigit> hendrickvp: best bet might be the mysql channel
[01:32] <hendrickvp> k
[01:32] <Two-Six> BDS: I have been trying all week..But I might have cracked it, or something anyway, I did a thing and my PC did a thing and apparently if I re-boot it might do some more stuff
[01:32] <compengi> phr34ck, true
[01:32] <pike_> phr34ck: i do cat /var/lib/dpkg/status | grep Package:| sed 's\Package:\\' i think
[01:32] <adorablepuppy> Nobody answers in the beryl channel
[01:33] <superjoe> can anyone help w a wireles problem
[01:33] <doviende> phr34ck: packages are a nice way to keep track of all of the programs and libraries that are installed.   it's like "Add/Remove Programs" in windows, but better
[01:33] <pike_> phr34ck: dpkg is little more sensible though :)
[01:33] <Two-Six> super joe: fraid not
[01:33] <phr34ck> pike_,  I don't even know what dpkg is ;p
[01:33] <arrenlex> !dpkg | phr34ck
[01:33] <ubotu> phr34ck: dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[01:33] <drbreen> anyone can tell me where to find builds (deb packages) of OLPC sugar for {k|x}ubuntu ? i have isdn and an 133mhz cpu so compiling is out.
[01:33] <doviende> phr34ck: sometimes in windows, you install a program and it doesn't show up in "Add/Remove Programs".  in ubuntu, if you always install software using packages, then it's very easy to remove it later too
[01:34] <superjoe> anyone else hp laptop broadcom 802.11g w linksy wrt54g v6
[01:34] <pike_> lol im always cat'ing | grep instead of just grep
[01:34] <doviende> superjoe: just ask your question
[01:34] <doviende> superjoe: having trouble getting your broadcom working?
[01:34] <tim167> i'm trying to simply print a small photo, it's driving me NUTS! can someone help me get printer settings right ? thanks
[01:34] <MisterRoper> Anyone know why emacs is only displaying block characters?
[01:34] <wastrel> my xmms is broken
[01:35] <doviende> MisterRoper: "block characters"?
[01:35] <superjoe> no works great in windows xp, just dont know how to connect in kubuntu
[01:35] <Two-Six> superjo:  I have been having lots of stress getting my linux machines to wirelessly network, it's a HORRIBLY tricky
[01:35] <MisterRoper> doviende: It's just displaying boxes for all the characters
[01:35] <djm62> tim167: what's going wrong?
[01:35] <phr34ck> I See.
[01:35] <arrenlex> !doesn't work | tim167
[01:35] <ubotu> tim167: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel)
[01:35] <doviende> MisterRoper: perhaps a font problem?
[01:36] <phr34ck> so apt uses dpkg to install stuff.
[01:36] <doviende> MisterRoper: what version of emacs?
[01:36] <linuxnewbie756> http://www.lacie.com/products/product.htm?pid=10803 ,look at the bottom where it mentions system requirments, when you download it, its a rpm, but it says ubuntu "6.6" is supported
[01:36] <arrenlex> phr34ck: Correct
[01:36] <arrenlex> !alien | linuxnewbie756
[01:36] <ubotu> linuxnewbie756: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[01:36] <zRaf> hello, I'm trying to getting work mod_rewrite in Ubuntu  with Apache2, but I can't. I have symlinked rewrite.load to mods-enabled, I have created a .htaccess with RewriteEngine On, an nothing seems to work, please help
[01:36] <MisterRoper> doviende: version 21.4.1
[01:36] <tim167> i need the photo to be printed small, i can only det it to print small when i print from Gimp, but there are no settings for the print quality, it automatically prints in draft quality, i can find these settings nowhere (HP PSC1510)
[01:36] <doviende> phr34ck: ya, apt knows how to find packages on the ubuntu website and download them, and then technically uses dpkg behind the scenes
[01:36] <phr34ck> I see.
[01:37] <doviende> MisterRoper: and you just installed it?  or did it just start doing this recently?
[01:37] <linuxnewbie756> so, what happens if it alien doesn't work out quite right? whats the worse that could happen?
[01:37] <Two-Six> XTknight-BDS:  Thanks.  GOing to re boot now and see what stuff I can do afterwards.
[01:37] <phr34ck> yeah, I did configure the /etc/apt/sources.list once.
[01:37] <tim167> if I print the photo from the default picture viewer in ubuntu it prints the photo on a full page, which also isnt what I need
[01:37] <linuxnewbie756> if the packages don't work, can't i just uninstall the package?
[01:37] <phr34ck> I wanted to list my external hdd in there, but I couldn't figure it out
[01:37] <arrenlex> linuxnewbie756: The worst that could happen is that the program won't work.
[01:37] <arrenlex> linuxnewbie756: Yes you can.
[01:37] <doviende> tim167: maybe use gimp to scale the picture down to lower resolution?
[01:37] <MisterRoper> doviende: It started doing it recently, it was working fine
[01:37] <zRaf> A very strange way to work of my apache is the next: If I have a http://myFile.php and I write down http://myFile (without extension), Apache2 shows me myFile.php :O why?
[01:37] <Davo_Dinkum> When I play XVID encoded files in VLC 0.8.6, I get sound but no video. How can I fix this? Error messages here: http://pastebin.com/849279
[01:38] <linuxnewbie756> sudo apt-get install alien?
[01:38] <hassan2a> ya des franais ?
[01:38] <arrenlex> !fr | hassan2a
[01:38] <ubotu> hassan2a: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[01:38] <tim167> doviende: i did try to set 'print size' in Gimp and save the pic, but it still prints pull page
[01:38] <doviende> MisterRoper: my bet is that it's either a font problem or an encoding problem (like unicode or something)
[01:38] <doviende> MisterRoper: maybe ask in #emacs?
[01:38] <hassan2a> arrenlex i have a problem with windows so.
[01:38] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: Please don't ever use pastebin.com again.
[01:38] <superjoe> doviende, how do I connect to the internet via wireless router
[01:39] <MisterRoper> doviende: Ok I'll check in #emacs thanks
[01:39] <arrenlex> hassan2a: Then why are you in #ubuntu?
[01:39] <pike_> superjoe: using command line?
[01:39] <tim167> doviende: i'll try to downscale the picture itself, but still i need to set the printer to print at highest quality, not draft, because there are horizontal lines in the photo like this
[01:39] <hassan2a> lol
[01:39] <doviende> superjoe: ok, open a terminal and type "sudo iwlist scanning" and tell me if it detects any access points there
[01:39] <phr34ck> So why dpkg is not standarized for Linux ?
[01:40] <darksmiley> HOORAY! i found a disk free space wiping tool! for any of you that might also be interested, it's called Scrub, and is available at sourceforge
[01:40] <doviende> tim167: ya, figure out the resolution of the printer, and then change the number of pixels in the photo to be the right amount
[01:40] <darksmiley> later duuuudes =)
[01:40] <nilsl> phr34ck: Because it's for Debian.
[01:40] <tim167> what program lets me change ALL settings for my printer (hp PSC1510 ) before printing ?
[01:40] <wastrel> is there a way to tell why these mp3's i just ripped don't play in xmms while other mp3's do?
[01:40] <phr34ck> Debian is a unix distro., no ?>
[01:40] <doviende> tim167: if you set the dpi for what the printer has, then you can resize the photo using the size rulers in gimp
[01:40] <arrenlex> phr34ck: The fact that the acronym comes from "debian package" might give you a hint. :)
[01:40] <wastrel> file says it's an mp3 file...
[01:40] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: Why not?
[01:40] <arrenlex> !debian | phr34ck
[01:40] <nilsl> phr34ck: A linux distro.
[01:40] <ubotu> phr34ck: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship
[01:40] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: Because it doesn't work.
[01:40] <doviende> tim167: if it knows the dpi then you can size it by inches or whatever
[01:41] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: It's still loading for me.
[01:41] <phr34ck> and I thought that Debian is unix ... silly me.
[01:41] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: Use pastebin.ca or ubuntu's pastebin
[01:41] <Music_Shuffle> arrenlex, loaded for me.
[01:41] <Music_Shuffle> Except, I have no idea what his error is, so I can't help any. :X
[01:41] <Music_Shuffle> Or rather, how to fix it*
[01:41] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: OK
[01:41] <doviende> phr34ck: unix gets used as a generic term.  so linux is sorta like a type of unix
[01:41] <linuxnewbie756> so, after i install alien, how do i convert these two packages?
[01:41] <superjoe> doviende says interface doesnt support scanning for everthing
[01:42] <phr34ck> doviende, I know that Linux is a decended of Unix. Since Unix is used on servers.
[01:42] <tim167> doviende: yes I can figure that out i guess, but i also need to set the printer to highest quality (slowest) printing, and i dont find any setting for that in Gimp nor in imageviewer
[01:42] <doviende> superjoe: ok, then you have a driver problem of some kind
[01:42] <arrenlex> doviende: That's totally wrong. Linux is a clone of unix. It is NOT a unix, as SCO found out the hard way.
[01:42] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: Better?: http://pastebin.ca/300028
[01:42] <doviende> tim167: are you using gnome?
[01:42] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: Lots, but I'm not familiar with VLC, so I can't help you much anyway :) Is this only one file or any xvid file?
[01:42] <tim167> doviende : yes
[01:42] <doviende> tim167: maybe try gnome-cups-manager or something
[01:43] <gizmo_the_great1> I have some avi files on my computer. Some play, while others do not and Ubuntu is unable to generate a thumbnail either. I have installed codecs etc in line with suggestions at ubuntuforums.org. But still no go. Any ideas?
[01:43] <Gunnar> Q: Anyone gotten kernel <IP_ADDRESS> to work?  I get a strange message on boot, then after a little while a Busybox prompt? Ideas?
[01:43] <pike_> phr34ck: linux was built with unix in mind but isnt a direct decendant. theyre like fraternal twin cousins by marriage :)
[01:43] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: You could also try mplayer because it prints a lot of very helpful debugging information.
[01:43] <timo901> How dose one use wine. i am not used to this kind of wine is new to me
[01:43] <doviende> tim167: System -> Printing or something
[01:43] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: Any XVID file I think
[01:43] <phr34ck> pike_,  that's a good expression ;p
[01:43] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: Is this file available for download? I'd like to see if I can play it.
[01:43] <kitche> timo901: type wine /path/to/exe
[01:43] <java_probs> how do you delete a file from the command prompt?
[01:43] <arrenlex> java_probs: rm <file>
[01:44] <drbreen> timo901: wine myprogram.exe
[01:44] <java_probs> arrenlex: thanks
[01:44] <xtknight> Gunnar: i'm running <IP_ADDRESS> now on Edgy
[01:44] <phr34ck> so when I create a file on my desktop, in which folder is it created?>
[01:44] <phr34ck> /usr/ something >?
[01:44] <arrenlex> phr34ck: ~/Desktop
[01:44] <timo901> Ok i will try it agian
[01:44] <tim167> doviende: gnome-cups-manager looks like  what i need, but no quality selections at first sight...
[01:44] <phr34ck> ~ = ?
[01:44] <kitche> phr34ck: /home/<use>
[01:44] <arrenlex> phr34ck: ~ = home
[01:45] <arrenlex> phr34ck: So like /home/bob if you were bob
[01:45] <markus_nagler> anyone familiar with Murrine in here? I get an error trying to compile it.
[01:45] <Gunnar> xtknight: Where did you find the deb files?  or did you complie your self?
[01:45] <gizmo_the_great1> I have some avi files on my computer. Some play, while others do not and Ubuntu is unable to generate a thumbnail either. I have installed codecs etc in line with suggestions at ubuntuforums.org. But still no go. I have also tried using Totem, MPlayer and VLC. None of them can play several of these avi's, while others are fine? Any ideas?
[01:45] <superjoe> doviende, I have package installed called windows wireless network drivers,
[01:45] <phr34ck> I see.
[01:45] <arrenlex> phr34ck: Don't tell me you've been typing "/home/bob" in the shell every time? :)
[01:45] <tim167> doviende: oops, yes its there thanks...now I'm getting somewhere
[01:45] <xtknight> Gunnar: i compiled them myself but i have the debs here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=326343
[01:45] <phr34ck> arrenlex, hehehehe.
[01:45] <linuxnewbie756> how does one use more than one of them little things in terminal? for example, -k keeps version, -s includes scripts, i want to do both, would it be -ks, or -k -s
[01:45] <phr34ck> Of course not ;p
[01:45] <timo901> XEROX-ICUTE:~$ wine GTR2.exewine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\GTR2.exe": Module not found
[01:45] <phr34ck> I was wondering where they're located.
[01:45] <superjoe> doviende should I use this to install new driver or configure network
[01:45] <Gunnar> xtknight : Thanks will check them out.
[01:45] <nn531> how big of a bitch is it to configure my ipod in ubuntu?
[01:45] <doviende> superjoe: if you have a broadcom card then you probably have to go to ubuntuforums.org an search for broadcom
[01:46] <pike_> gizmo_the_great1: the command "file whatever.avi" might give you more info on the file type
[01:46] <arrenlex> linuxnewbie756: They're called command switches, and either way will work for most programs.
[01:46] <gizmo_the_great1> pike_: i will try that and come back..
[01:46] <phr34ck> how can I echo the path of the current directory ?
[01:46] <arrenlex> !ipod | nn531
[01:46] <doviende> superjoe: it seems that many people are having problems with broadcom cards, but there are some step-by-step instructions on ubuntuforums.org
[01:46] <ubotu> nn531: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto
[01:46] <xtknight> Gunnar: you can just download the debs and disregard the rest of the core 2 duo info if youre not using a Core 2 Duo system
[01:46] <gizmo_the_great1> phr34ck: pwd
[01:46] <xtknight> Gunnar: they should function normally on other systems
[01:46] <tim167> doviende: so if i make settings in this cups-manager, will every program that wants to print use these settings ?
[01:46] <nolimitsoya> timo901, you need to be in the same dir as the file you want to execute
[01:46] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: No it's not sorry :(
[01:46] <phr34ck> so is that like a Linux command or bash >?
[01:46] <doviende> tim167: i think so.  cups is the printer management system that sends things to the printer
[01:47] <timo901> nolimitsoya:ok thanks
[01:47] <doviende> tim167: so everything should go through that i thnk
[01:47] <wastrel> sound juicer isn't working
[01:47] <arrenlex> phr34ck: The ~ thing? It's simply notation. It means "home of the current user".
[01:47] <Gunnar> xtknight : OK Will do.
[01:47] <arrenlex> phr34ck: It has to mean that in any posix-compliant shells.
[01:47] <tim167> doviende: trying now, i'll let you know ... :p
[01:47] <nolimitsoya> timo901, or, you can use a path: wine path/to/the/file/you/want.exe
[01:47] <phr34ck> I was talking about the pwd command./
[01:47] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: Besides the file is 175MB
[01:47] <arrenlex> phr34ck: Oh, pwd is part of Linux. It's a command.
[01:48] <timo901> i see ,
[01:48] <dead_im> hi
[01:48] <gizmo_the_great1> pike_: Does this tell you anything? "NewYear06003.avi: RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 720 x 576, 25.00 fps,"
[01:48] <phr34ck> Any idea on where I can find a list of useful commands?
[01:48] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: I could help you if you installed mplayer-nogui and tried to play that file, and pastebinned all the output.
[01:48] <gizmo_the_great1> phr34ck: linuxcommand.org
[01:48] <phr34ck> gizmo_the_great1, meh !
[01:48] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: But I'm really not familiar with VLC< sorry.
[01:48] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: apt-get mplayer-nogui then?
[01:48] <Zambezi> Is it a bad idea to chose Yes here? http://pastebin.ca/300042
[01:48] <arrenlex> Davo_Dinkum: It's in multiverse. You'd need that repo.
[01:49] <timo901> XEROX-ICUTE:/media/window/GTR2$ wine gtr2.exe
[01:49] <timo901> libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
[01:49] <timo901> libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
[01:49] <tim167> doviende: finally, it worked, thanks!!
[01:49] <timo901> ok paste bin next time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[01:49] <arrenlex> timo901: That is an aesthetic error which is an artefact of the incompleteness of open-source drivers, and can be safely ignored.
[01:49] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: Why does it need to remove mplayer?
[01:49] <xtknight> holy netsplit batman
[01:50] <Davo_Dinkum> arrenlex: Also it suggested thse packages: Suggested packages: w32codecs libdvdcss
[01:50] <arrenlex> ...you have mplayer installed?! xD Well then why are we doing this?! Play it with mplayer and pastebin the output
[01:50] <gizmo_the_great1> has the IRC server just rebooted or something? I have pages of people quitting and then rejoining?
[01:50] <superjoe> doviende, thanks, I look into the forum and see how it works
[01:50] <arrenlex> !netsplit | gizmo_the_great1
[01:50] <ubotu> gizmo_the_great1: netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[01:51] <xtknight> gizmo_the_great1: its an irc server lag problem, disregard it
[01:51] <IndyGunFreak> gizmo_the_great1, has to
[01:51] <arrenlex> DUDE
[01:51] <arrenlex> "when two IRC servers of the same network disconnect from each other" totally reminds me of the birds&bees talk o__o
[01:51] <xtknight> lol
[01:51] <Gunnar> xtknight :  Rebooting now.   Hope for the best!!!
[01:51] <xtknight> Gunnar: you can always use your old kernel if it fail..... never mind hes gone :P
[01:52] <timo901> arrenlex: i see but my gtr2.exe still hasn't launched
[01:52] <arrenlex> timo901: Sorry, what were we talking about?
[01:52] <Headcrab> HOLY DAMN!
[01:52] <Headcrab> there's alot of ppl here
[01:52] <arrenlex> Headcrab: It's actually pretty small for #ubuntu. We just had a netsplit.
[01:53] <arrenlex> Headcrab: Usually > 900.
[01:53] <Headcrab> O.O
[01:53] <Headcrab> wow
[01:54] <timo901> arrenlex:its ok i will just use windows xp pro for my gaming seems more easy :-D
[01:54] <arrenlex> timo901: Good plan.
[01:55] <timo901> arrenlex:thanks
[01:56] <cybercod> timo901... thats about all its good for with me... games
[01:56] <linuxnewbie756> ok, i converted the lightscribe files to deb. they seem to be ok. the program detects the drive and the disk in it. when i go to print, it says 'printing requires root priveleges" how is this fixable?
[01:56] <VerdRousseau> can anyone recommend a good wireless GUI besides net manager and gtkwifi
[01:56] <pike_> VerdRousseau: ive heard people recommend wifi-radar but never used it
[01:56] <cybercod> Verd, you could try the kde ones..
[01:57] <VerdRousseau> would the kde ones work okay on gnome
[01:57] <pike_> VerdRousseau: whats wrong with iwlist iwconfig dhclient? without the frontends :)
[01:58] <clearzen> If you have a directory full of zipped files and you want to unzip all of them recursively and then delete the source file what command would I use to accomplish that?
[01:58] <VerdRousseau> I like to have nice to look at :)
[01:58] <clearzen> in the terminal??
[01:58] <noiesmo> VerdRousseau, kde apps will work in gnome you will just have extra packages installed on system
[01:58] <cybercod> verd, yes, they'd just load the kde libraries for the duration of their use
[01:58] <VerdRousseau> you think its worth it for me to also install kde
[01:58] <cybercod> verd, you used kde before?
[01:59] <VerdRousseau> In backtrack I have
[01:59] <noiesmo> VerdRousseau, upto you I prefer kde but its a personnal choice
[01:59] <cybercod> then its up to you...
[01:59] <VerdRousseau> naiesmo- do you have it on ubuntu
[01:59] <VerdRousseau> or do u have kubuntu
[01:59] <VerdRousseau> also didnt really get to fool around it on backtrack
[01:59] <cybercod> installing kubuntu-desktop meta package give you essentially the same thing
[02:00] <drivingmenuts> hello
[02:00] <pike_> clearzen: for i in ls; do unzip $i;rm $i; done or something
[02:00] <drivingmenuts> what's the difference betwwen dapper and edgy
[02:00] <lufis> drivingmenuts: Dapper is more stable
[02:00] <VerdRousseau> if I went about installing kde would I install the kubuntu package or just kde
[02:00] <noiesmo> VerdRousseau, I installed edubuntu originally then just added the extra's the base systems are the same for (*)ubuntu
[02:00] <arrenlex> drivingmenuts: dapper isn't getting any new package versions. Just bugfixes.
[02:00] <drivingmenuts> what would be better?
[02:00] <drivingmenuts> beryl and xgl?
[02:00] <lufis> drivingmenuts: depends on what you want
[02:00] <cybercod> verd... kubuntu-desktop package installs all needed packages for kde
[02:00] <arrenlex> drivingmenuts: Depends what you need. For a server, dapper. For a desktop, edgy.
[02:00] <Tann> I still need help
[02:01] <drivingmenuts> beryl and xgl?
[02:01] <pike_> clearzen: sorry for i in `ls`; do whatever done;
[02:01] <cybercod> verd.  then you change your session at the login
[02:01] <VerdRousseau> the extra desktop doesnt take up much space so I guess its worth it to have on the system
[02:01] <clearzen> pike_: Thanks
[02:01] <Tann> How do you setup a network connction using ndiswrapper
[02:01] <drivingmenuts> does beryl and xgl function same on daper and edgy?
[02:01] <diskus> drivingmenuts: yes and no
[02:01] <drivingmenuts> huh
[02:01] <Headcrab> tar: test1.so: Cannot change ownership to uid 1000, gid 100: Operation not permitted
[02:01] <noiesmo> drivingmenuts, edgy has aiglx by default but you can add xgl
[02:01] <cybercod> tann... ndiswrapper just installs the hardware drivers, you still need to set up the network settings in "Networking"
[02:02] <Headcrab> hey, I get this:tar: test1.so: Cannot change ownership to uid 1000, gid 100: Operation not permitted and I am root, so I dunno what is causing it.
[02:02] <diskus> drivingmenuts: it's alpha state software, sometimes people can't get it to work at all

[02:03] <cybercod> Tann?
[02:03] <Tann> how do you setup a connection to a wireless network using hardware that was installed through ndiswrapper
[02:03] <Gunnar> xtknight:  I tried to install the NVIDIA software (the one that you download from nvidia.com) and it gave me some errors and didn't install.  I did find the version I had previously installed.  Ideas?
[02:03] <cybercod> tann.  ubuntu or kubuntu?
[02:03] <drivingmenuts> does anyone know about error code soft lock up?
[02:03] <Tann> ubuntu
[02:04] <noiesmo> Gunnar, sounds like you dont have kernel headers to match your current running kernel
[02:04] <jeff_>  such a program for hotpluging eth0 in 6.10
[02:04] <drivingmenuts> does anyone know about error soft lock up cpu#0?
[02:04] <cybercod> tann  once the hardware is installed, you will have a wireless device showing up in "Networking"   ..... wlan0
[02:04] <noiesmo> !envy | Gunnar
[02:04] <ubotu> Gunnar: envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy
[02:04] <lufis> drivingmenuts: in what context?
[02:04] <drivingmenuts> in any fix?
[02:04] <Gunnar> noiesmo : Thanks I look there.
[02:04] <drivingmenuts> help for fixing it?

[02:06] <jeff_> took a little time but its working like a champ
[02:06] <kitche> jrattner: no it doesn't even remind active in windows

[02:06] <jeff_> is there a program that does a HOTPLUG thing with ETH0
[02:07] <drivingmenuts> can anyone help me how to intall beryl on dapper?
[02:07] <jeff_> Ive seen ifplugd but not availabe in Ubuntu
[02:07] <drivingmenuts> is there any picture following installations?
[02:07] <lufis> drivingmenuts: there are lots of guides on ubuntuforums.org
[02:07] <drivingmenuts> lufis
[02:07] <drivingmenuts> may i ask u a question
[02:07] <lufis> drivingmenuts: one sec, lemme see if i can find one
[02:07] <crimsun> !ifplugd
[02:07] <ubotu> ifplugd: A configuration daemon for ethernet devices. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.28-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 57 kB, installed size 280 kB
[02:08] <noiesmo> drivingmenuts, http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Main_Page
[02:08] <drivingmenuts> it gives the codes right
[02:08] <wastrel> oookeydokey
[02:08] <drivingmenuts> what do i do with them?
[02:08] <erudified> How can I get rid of the black outline that shows up when I launch an application? (6.10, Gnome)
[02:08] <jeff_> ubotu, thanks
[02:08] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)

[02:09] <lufis> drivingmenuts: lol no. are you?
[02:09] <drivingmenuts> oh.;
[02:09] <erudified> lufis, yeah, it expands to the size of the window
[02:09] <arrenlex> drivingmenuts: I think you're nuts.
[02:09] <drivingmenuts> yeah thanks
[02:09] <lufis> :P
[02:09] <drivingmenuts> is there anyway to install dapper first
[02:09] <wastrel> i am annoyed
[02:09] <lufis> drivingmenuts: what do you mean?
[02:10] <jeff_> sort of like a telephone with menus, never a human to talk too
[02:10] <drivingmenuts> then upgrade to edgy?
[02:10] <drivingmenuts> cuz i can't even boot up with edgy to start install it
[02:10] <lufis> drivingmenuts: hmm
[02:10] <erudified> drivingmenuts, something like apt-get dist-upgrade? =P
[02:10] <lufis> drivingmenuts: what happens when you boot?
[02:10] <drivingmenuts> like when i try to install it by booting it from cd
[02:10] <drivingmenuts> i get this error code SOFT LOCK UP CPU#0
[02:10] <drivingmenuts> and it freeze
[02:11] <sergio_> anyone using faisty?
[02:11] <drivingmenuts> so i can't even boot to install
[02:11] <jeff_> how do you add component universe to ubuntu?
[02:11] <jeff_> dont see it?
[02:11] <lufis> drivingmenuts: i don't know myself, but i've had some problems with edgy. you'd probably be better off with dapper
[02:11] <drivingmenuts> dapper?
[02:11] <drivingmenuts> but i want cool effects like
[02:11] <lufis> drivingmenuts: the eyecandy runs on dapper too
[02:11] <timo902> im timo901 whats going on ?

[02:13] <lufis> drivingmenuts: I don't know right off the top of my head :P let me find a guide
[02:13] <welly> Hi all.. I want to upgrade from breezy to the latest ubuntu release.. what will i need to do?
[02:13] <arrenlex> !upgrade | welly
[02:13] <FreshPrince> kitche, bingoooo thats it thanks
[02:13] <ubotu> welly: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:13] <drivingmenuts> thanks lufis
[02:13] <welly> cheers! :)
[02:14] <kitche> welly: you will have to update to dapper unless you want some breakage
[02:14] <welly> ok
[02:14] <welly> i don't want breakage :)
[02:14] <lufis> drivingmenuts: ok, try this http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Dapper/AiGLX
[02:14] <welly> can i then upgrade dapper to edgy afterwards?
[02:14] <lufis> welly: yes
[02:14] <welly> cool
[02:14] <wastrel> bah sound juicer is useless
[02:15] <drivingmenuts> lufis still waiting for guide buddy
[02:15] <lufis> drivingmenuts: i just linked you to one
[02:15] <drivingmenuts> oh thank you
[02:15] <drivingmenuts> im blind
[02:15] <lufis> :)
[02:15] <drivingmenuts> i can't read english
[02:15] <drivingmenuts> damn thanks
[02:15] <lufis> it's ok
[02:15] <drivingmenuts> i want to install beryl with xgl T.T
[02:15] <`Vision> for someone completely new to linux, would you recommend edgy or dapper? It's going to be used as a lamp server
[02:16] <BiNz> i need help mounting my ipod
[02:16] <drivingmenuts> lufis can u please link me the beryl with xgl?
[02:16] <lufis> vision: you'd be better off with dapper
[02:16] <lufis> drivingmenuts: just use google
[02:16] <Headcrab> Is there a better flavor of linux for a server - running in a 733MhZ w/ 256MB ram - than Ubuntu that anyone know?
[02:16] <drivingmenuts> what do i do with all the codes?
[02:16] <`Vision> thanks lufis
[02:16] <wastrel> !best
[02:16] <lufis> drivingmenuts: what do you mean? the commands?
[02:16] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[02:16] <BiNz> how do i find out what my mount point is for my ipod?
[02:16] <drivingmenuts> yes
[02:16] <drivingmenuts> what do i do with all the commands from that link u gave me
[02:17] <Headcrab> !bestdistro
[02:17] <lufis> drivingmenuts: copy and paste them into the terminal
[02:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bestdistro - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:17] <Headcrab> !bestlinux
[02:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bestlinux - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:17] <drivingmenuts> ok thanks man
[02:17] <lufis> no prob
[02:17] <arrenlex> How do I use dd to copy 500kb of a file to another file?
[02:17] <arrenlex> Or other common utility?
[02:17] <kitche> Headcrab: slackware more advance though is good for servers
[02:17] <lufis> drivingmenuts: the terminal is under Applications > Accessories
[02:17] <kitche> arrenlex: probably cat file >> otherfile
[02:17] <arrenlex> kitche: I only want the first 500kb
[02:17] <wastrel> arrenlex:  head
[02:18] <kitche> arrenlex: hmm then not sure
[02:18] <drivingmenuts> thanks lufis
[02:18] <drivingmenuts> i love you baby
[02:18] <arrenlex> wastrel: How would I use head in that?
[02:18] <lufis> love you too
[02:18] <dev> man head
[02:18] <dev> :D
[02:18] <kitche> since dd won't help you either probably arrenlex
[02:18] <wastrel> there's args to give it the # of bytes or # of chars or # of lines, etc.
[02:18] <drivingmenuts> wanna make out lufis
[02:18] <ernz> Hello, can someone please explain why Totem is no longer able to play content over network shares, and how I might fix it?
[02:18] <lufis> drivingmenuts: not here ;)
[02:18] <drivingmenuts> hahah
[02:19] <drivingmenuts> so do i just type all that commands?
[02:19] <drivingmenuts> and it's gonna work?
[02:19] <lufis> drivingmenuts: well, paste them. typing would take forever
[02:19] <lufis> drivingmenuts: it should
[02:19] <drivingmenuts> ok
[02:19] <wastrel> i guess not the # of chars.
[02:19] <wastrel> theres -n for lines and -c for bytes
[02:19] <drivingmenuts> so can i install xgl and beryl all those stuff on dapper?
[02:19] <lufis> drivingmenuts: yep
[02:19] <arrenlex> wastrel: cat tigs.mp3 | head -c 500k tigs.mp3 > tigsshort
[02:19] <arrenlex> wastrel: Works for me.
[02:19] <ernz> Anyone know why that might be?
[02:19] <arrenlex> wastrel: But is there a better way?
[02:19] <drivingmenuts> so is it gonna work same way as in edgy?
[02:19] <Gunnar> Thanks all.  I am up and running <IP_ADDRESS> with Nvidia.
[02:20] <lufis> drivingmenuts: I don't know, eyecandy isn't really my thing. the guide i linked you to is official though, it should work fine
[02:20] <wastrel> you don't need the cat, head will read the file fine
[02:20] <drivingmenuts> waht's eye candy?
[02:20] <lufis> drivingmenuts: effects like beryl
[02:20] <name> hey
[02:20] <rendo> Can anyone direct me to a WORKING mysql setup guide because everyone I go to doesn't work and it gives me the same stupid errors of error: 'Access denied for user

[02:20] <numist> ozzloy: HI!
[02:20] <name> and that "Blank disk inserted" dialog
[02:21] <arrenlex> wastrel: Ah... sorry, habit when using head. Thanks :)
[02:21] <ernz> Someone has to have seen this problem too?! It has only been a problem since I "upgraded" to Edgy from Dapper
[02:21] <lufis> ernz: I don't know, you might try VLC
[02:21] <name> ernz: you actually downgraded
[02:22] <ernz> name: I am starting to think so.

[02:23] <drivingmenuts> do u have beryl installed on ur linux?
[02:23] <ernz> lufis: It has something to do with Samba, the only solution I can find is to mount that specific location and run it from the local mount dir - but this solution SUCKS!!!! and shouldn't be required at all.
[02:23] <lufis> drivingmenuts: nope. i did, but my hardware is too old for it
[02:23] <lufis> ernz: ah, sorry about that.

[02:26] <linuxnewbie756> has anyone ever even heard of someone actually getting lightscribe to work correctly in ubuntu?
[02:26] <wastrel> hm no i'm wrong that's a systray thing.
[02:26] <user-land> lufis, how would that work while i am in xchat ?
[02:26] <wastrel> how about update notifier i think it's called

[02:27] <lufis> user-land: click acquire, then screenshot, then set the amount of time you want it to wait
[02:27] <welly> arrenlex, i suspected not.. is it something to do with the repository perhaps?
[02:27] <arrenlex> welly: Run "sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/lvm2_2.02.02-1ubuntu1.2_i386.deb" which will give you more verbose output. Pastebin that output.
