[04:09] <shingalated> does anyone know why frostwire/limewire isn't working in edgy with beryl?
[04:10] <zambonie_> ms has got one thing going for it, integration, and they may have waited too long with the next gen stuff.  we'll see.
[04:10] <jack_> if gentoo's emerge and debian's apt combined forces - that would be a *real* distribution
[04:10] <foormea> just a question, would partition magic be able to resize or repair e2fs ?
[04:10] <Pelo> jack_,  this isn'T a fanboy channel
[04:10] <jack_> Pelo: oh really now?
[04:10] <npgmstr> what is the best ver of linux to use?
[04:10] <draeath> jack_, it's called deb-src repositories
[04:10] <crimsun> npgmstr: depends on your needs, of course.
[04:10] <itrebal> gr... if I've got to reinstall ubuntu again...
[04:10] <Xenguy> npgmstr: there is no best version =)
[04:10] <jack_> draeath: it's not the lack of source i'm whining about, it's how the source is organized
[04:11] <rikai> Ok, can someone tell me what black text with a bright blue background when lsing in a gnome-terminal means?
[04:11] <itrebal> npgmstr: you'll learn that that is a very dangerous question, and you just have to find the one that fits you
[04:11] <draeath> So, is there any paticular advantages to using an external journal for ext3?
[04:11] <Jimbo> I have been trying to install "pan0.119 beta", a newsreader that supports nzb files ( http://pan.rebelbase.com/download/ ) with no success> I pasted what I did in pastebin and Im wondering if someone can shed some light on this and point out my mistake if there is one. pastebin:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32219/
[04:11] <Pelo> rikai,  what does the txt say ?
[04:11] <npgmstr> ok. on that note. what would be the most graphicly cool and fast ver?
[04:11] <RobNyc> !et
[04:11] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[04:11] <crimsun> draeath: e.g., physical volume separation
[04:11] <Xenguy> rikai: a directory ?
[04:11] <shawn__> easy question, how do I install the vlc plugin for firefox 2.0?
[04:12] <itrebal> npgmstr: graphicly cool isn't necissarily fast
[04:12] <rikai> Xenguy, eh?
[04:12] <crimsun> shawn__: it's currently broken, so don't bother.
[04:12] <jack_> npgmstr: kororaa's livecd is pretty slick, as is DreamLinux + Xgl, but I haven't seen the cd around..
[04:12] <itrebal> do you want it really graphical, or really fast?
[04:12] <Xenguy> rikai: if it doesn't help, just ignore it :-)
[04:12] <suran_> Is it necessary to run -c with mkfs.ext3 on a new HD ? If I dont check for bad blocks during format, will the OS do it automatically later ?
[04:12] <rikai> oh, sorry, isinterpreted, its bright blue text. :/
[04:12] <draeath> crimsun, if your '/' filesystem is on a device that will shut off with power failure, and the rest of the system has a battery... would having the journal internal to the battery device be any use?
[04:12] <Pelo> shawn__,  use the plugin manager in ff
[04:13] <itrebal> anyone know how to resolve this error: pastebin.ca/250601
[04:13] <crimsun> draeath: possibly
[04:13] <shingalated> formea, yes partition magic should let you resize a ext2 partition
[04:13] <rikai> Pelo,  txt?
[04:13] <npgmstr> I guess I want both. kinda like windows but not as stressfull to run.
[04:13] <Jimbo> Anyone look at that pastebin?
[04:13] <rikai> Xenguy, does bright blue text mean anything important? ;)
[04:13] <foormea> thanks shingalated
[04:13] <Pelo> rikai,  forget it
[04:13] <shawn__> sudo apt-get install mozilla-plugin-vlc ?
[04:13] <draeath> crimsun, ok. and the resizing would be handy too, as its a 100gb partition on an otherwise empty 320gb drive. I may expand
[04:13] <crimsun> shawn__: don't, it's broken in edgy.
[04:13] <itrebal> npgmstr: Suse is really graphicy and decently fast
[04:13] <draeath> crimsun, already got it set up, even mounting with UUID
[04:13] <Staz> If I have a volume group made up of 4 hdds, have one big ext3 partition on there, if 1 hdd dies have I just lost the data on that one hdd, or everything?
[04:14] <itrebal> npgmstr: and it will hold your hand every step of the way
[04:14] <Pelo> shawn__,  try looking in synaptic
[04:14] <shawn__> crimsum;: thanks...any idea when it would be up for edgy?
[04:14] <draeath> npgmstr but the default package system in suse is horribly slow. but its easy enough to get the apt (debian/ubuntu) system to work.
[04:14] <Jimbo> I have been trying to install "pan0.119 beta", a newsreader that supports nzb files ( http://pan.rebelbase.com/download/ ) with no success> I pasted what I did in pastebin and Im wondering if someone can shed some light on this and point out my mistake if there is one. pastebin:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32219/
[04:14] <crimsun> shawn__: it's not fixable in edgy due to the number of changes required [and edgy's frozen because it's released]
[04:14] <Jimbo> new to linux here
[04:14] <foormea> okay anyway i'm resizing to 1mb lower than previous, with gparted, hasn't crashed yet :D
[04:15] <npgmstr> ok so far I am sticking to ubuntu.
[04:15] <crimsun> shawn__: I'll address it in feisty; perhaps a backport to edgy-backports will be made. Depends when the fix is available.
[04:15] <npgmstr> as I said thus far I like it.
[04:15] <shawn__> crimsun: cool beans
[04:16] <npgmstr> I think the whole change thing is a little scary at first.being windows based for so many years.
[04:16] <itrebal> gr....
[04:16] <Jimbo> anyone got any idea why im having trouble getting pan 0.119 to install?
[04:17] <npgmstr> I have 2 hds 1 is 14 gig and the other 40. now do I let ubuntu install and format the main? or can I run it and have it format both?
[04:17] <shawn__> crimsun & pelo thank you for the responses
[04:17] <shinler> how do i uninstall unbuntu so i can reinstall it? it has some errors
[04:17] <rikai> thanks anyways folks
[04:17] <npgmstr> oh god I was at walmart and ppl were out side camping waiting for it.
[04:17] <cirvin_fox> has anyone had problems with video tuner cards?
[04:18] <Pelo> npgmstr,  you can specify which one you want to install to but not sure you can format both
[04:18] <lightup> npgmstr, when does it come out over there?  I was a little comcered if my video card will operate well with it.
[04:19] <bimberi> shinler: just run the installer and choose to erase or reformat your partition(s)
[04:19] <Pelo> shinler,  just back up your home folder first , with all the hidden files and folder
[04:19] <kitche> !offtopic|jack_

[04:19] <npgmstr> lithup it is at mid night tonight
[04:19] <tgelter> hey all, I mixed up some different version of gtkpod (one from the repos and one from source) and now I can't load gtkpod...it just gives a segmentation fault, dumps a core, and won't start...how can I make things right? (removing and adding gtkpod from aptitude doesn't fix anything)
[04:19] <Pelo> npgmstr,  you can always lookup your videocar model and number in the forum to see if anyone had trouble with it
[04:19] <|rt|> anyone know why dpkg throws an error installing the database when trying to setup a package that needs a mysql database?
[04:19] <jack_> kitche: what gives man, someone else mentions ps3, another person replies, and when i say something, i get flagged?
[04:20] <kitche> tgelter: you can run gdb to see why gtkpod is erroring out
[04:20] <|rt|> the error is Access denied for user root@localhost
[04:20] <Jimbo> n00b here  can someone check this pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32219/  for errors...I cant seem to get pan beta-o.119 to install
[04:20] <draeath> jack_, you were talking about debian earlier
[04:20] <Admiral_Chicago> tgelter: did you do at aptitude purge?
[04:20] <lightup> jack_, sorry, I got distracted
[04:20] <jack_> draeath: it was relevant for about 5 seconds, jesus
[04:20] <npgmstr> ok man I feel likea little kid asking what I feel is dumb questions.
[04:20] <foormea> okay guys resizing it 1mb lower worked gparted didn't crash and now no problem :D thanks for advice!
[04:20] <tgelter> Admiral_Chicago: yes, I did
[04:20] <jrib> jack_: pan newsreader?
[04:20] <npgmstr> just wanna thank every one for all and any help/info
[04:20] <Pelo> tgelter,  delete the config folders for that appl probably a hidden one in your home folder
[04:20] <jrib> Jimbo: pan newsreader?
[04:21] <Admiral_Chicago> tgelter: hmm no idea
[04:21] <Jimbo> jrib: yes
[04:21] <jrib> Jimbo: pan is in the repositories, no need to compile
[04:21] <jrib> !info pan
[04:21] <ubotu> pan: A Newsreader based on GTK2, which looks like Forte Agent. In component main, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>-5ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 467 kB, installed size 3616 kB
[04:21] <Jimbo> its the beta version that supports nzb files
[04:21] <jack_> jrib: uhm.. what's your question?
[04:21] <highneko> Aptitude won't let me remove k3d. http://rafb.net/paste/results/YAg30I98.html
[04:21] <Jimbo> jrib..this version isnt there
[04:21] <cirvin_fox> can someone help me? what can be done to revive my sound?
[04:21] <jrib> jack_: name completion error, sorry
[04:21] <jack_> jrib: ah, that's cool
[04:22] <Jimbo> jrib: pan v0.119 beta supports nzb
[04:22] <shingalated> does anyone know why frostwire/limewire isn't working in edgy with beryl?
[04:22] <crimsun> cirvin_fox: what's the issue?
[04:22] <jrib> Jimbo: you have to read the output of "./configure" before continuing to "make".  You need build-essential installed and you probably want to do 'sudo apt-get build-dep pan' as well
[04:22] <bimberi> Jimbo: install build-essential
[04:22] <Stegozor> yup, you can get a .deb package of pan from http://pan.rebelbase.com
[04:22] <lightup> shingalated, type java -version, you need 1.5+
[04:23] <Jimbo> bimberi: can you see what i did wrong?
[04:23] <itrebal> fuck it, I'll just reinstall ubuntu..
[04:23] <cirvin_fox> whenever i install my tv tuner card, my sound system doesnt work
[04:23] <Jimbo> jrib...do apt-get install build essential?
[04:23] <LjL> !language | itrebal
[04:23] <ubotu> itrebal: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:23] <jrib> Jimbo: yes
[04:23] <itrebal> sorry
[04:23] <crimsun> cirvin_fox: asoundconf list
[04:23] <cirvin_fox> and for some reason, the tuner module on the board itself is not recignized through i2c
[04:23] <Stegozor> was anyone able to make dosemu work on ubuntu here?
[04:24] <crimsun> cirvin_fox: (tell me the output)
[04:24] <Jimbo> Then do same as i did before right?
[04:24] <bimberi> Jimbo: you just need the compilation tools (build-essential)
[04:24] <bimberi> Jimbo: yes
[04:24] <Jimbo> ok
[04:24] <Jimbo> gonna try..bbl
[04:24] <bimberi> Jimbo: when you reach the 'make install' step you should consider using checkinstall ...
[04:24] <bimberi> !checkinstall | Jimbo
[04:24] <cirvin_fox> name of avalible cards: I82801DBICH4
[04:24] <ubotu> Jimbo: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall  -  Please: Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page. - DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[04:25] <crimsun> cirvin_fox: now pastebin ``lsmod'' please
[04:25] <Pelo> later
[04:25] <cirvin_fox> pastebin?

[04:26] <Xpression> does anyone know how to implement data compression under squid ?
[04:26] <lightup> shingalated, I had a problem with limewire myself, have you tried "cd /usr/lib/LimeWire" and then "java -jar LimeWire.jar" ?
[04:26] <shingalated> Is there a way to prevent my screen from being locked when I switch user to a previous session?
[04:26] <cirvin_fox> forgive me for not understanding
[04:26] <crimsun> !paste > cirvin_fox
[04:26] <shingalated> lightup, it works with metacity, just not with beryl
[04:27] <Jimbo> bimberi or jrib   like this with the dash between words ? build-essential
[04:27] <bimberi> Jimbo: yes
[04:27] <Jimbo> k
[04:27] <jrib> ubotu: tell Jimbo about compiling
[04:27] <cirvin_fox> the entire output?
[04:27] <lightup> shingalated, thats odd I have it working with beryl
[04:28] <shingalated> Maybe I should try limewire, I am using frostwire right now
[04:28] <bimberi> cirvin_fox: yes, and it's a good idea to include the nick of who you're addressing posts to
[04:29] <lightup> shingalated, that might be an idea, frostwire (while being the open source version which makes it cooler) does tend to have more problems
[04:30] <swilliamson> anyone have a problem with beryl opening windows but they are set like in the background and you cannot bring them to the front.  Sometimes I have to open and close firefox (or other apps) 5 or 6 times before it pops up in a usable state
[04:30] <HeathenDan> use gtk-gnutella
[04:30] <antmanuv> hello ,,, whats would be the best web browser for ubuntu?
[04:30] <dcraven> antmanuv, what's wrong with the one it comes with?
[04:30] <poi> Hi all, I installed Windows again and Windows killed grub. How do I use the rescue option from the live cd? Ubuntu is installed on /dev/hda2. What do I have to type?
[04:31] <antmanuv> i kind of don't like it
[04:31] <shingalated> I have used gtk-gnutella, but I like limewire, because it lets you download to different diretories automagically by filetype
[04:31] <dcraven> antmanuv, you could try epiphany.
[04:31] <antmanuv> cool
[04:31] <antmanuv> thanks <dcraven>
[04:31] <dcraven> antmanuv, epiphany-browser I think it's called in the repos.
[04:31] <cirvin_fox> sorry...
[04:32] <|rt|> anyone know why dpkg would be using root@localhost to setup a database rather than debian-sys-maint?
[04:32] <tonquin> I just installed edgy on a laptop. what i'm confused about is that the wifi is working but its not enabled.  Whereas the ethernet is enabled but not plugged in.
[04:32] <cirvin_fox> crimsun, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32249/g/32249/
[04:33] <tonquin> and im not sure which wireless host i'm connected to.
[04:33] <crimsun> cirvin_fox: bttv takes over /dev/dsp from your snd_intel8x0's snd_pcm_oss (alsa's oss emulation)
[04:33] <Zambezi> I got a problem. It seems my eth0 didn't work properly, so I changed the networkcard to another. I put in a 3Com. But Dapper server still "looking" for the other interface. How can I change this. I have the MAC-adress on the other interface.
[04:33] <antmanuv> dcraven epiphany need firefox and i actualy hate firefox
[04:33] <tonquin> I'm kind of afraid to change things though if its going to break my connection.
[04:33] <gumpish> I'm running edgy on ppc... is there a RAM testing package I can install?
[04:34] <ademan_> ubuntu is offering me updates for something, and i'm not sure if the updates are because of a new third party repository i just added, is there a way to see which repository the updates are from in the update manager? (or any other way really)
[04:34] <dcraven> antmanuv, try lynx.
[04:34] <cirvin_fox> crimsun, so is there a way to get it back?
[04:34] <antmanuv> dcraven hum!! cool thanks again
[04:34] <crimsun> cirvin_fox: sure, unload bttv and snd_pcm_oss, then reload snd_pcm_oss only
[04:35] <jrib> antmanuv: kazehakase and links2 possibly as well
[04:35] <sbalneav> Zambezi: change the mac address in /etc/iftab
[04:35] <lufis> Anyone know if there's any work to port Aotuv to Gstreamer?
[04:35] <Zambezi> sbalneav, Is that enough to make apt-get update work?
[04:36] <cirvin_fox> crimsun, i get the impression that the bttv drivers are rather troublesome
[04:36] <sbalneav> Zambezi: You'd need to restart networking
[04:36] <nextstate> I compiled a vanilla <IP_ADDRESS> and when it first boots all I see is a few lines of pretty colors 1/4 of the way from the bottom of the screen with a few symbols also. Any ideas where I may have gone wrong in my config?
[04:36] <crimsun> cirvin_fox: only in terms of sound interoperability
[04:36] <sbalneav> Zambezi: invoke-rc.d networking restart
[04:36] <antmanuv> jrib i got kazehazase i like it but i'm looking for somehting different , more like  safari
[04:36] <Zambezi> sbalneav, I can reboot the computer instead.
[04:36] <sbalneav> Zambezi: That would work too
[04:37] <cirvin_fox> crimsun, perhaps you can help me with the issue of my computer crashing each time i try and switch to the composite video input
[04:37] <crimsun> cirvin_fox: sorry, I only handle audio.
[04:37] <specialbuddy> how do I set up fstab to automount a portable harddrive to the same spot?
[04:37] <cirvin_fox> can someone help me with the issue of my computer crashing each time i try and switch to the composite video input
[04:38] <jts> hey can anyone help with gfx drivers? I have installed nvidia drivers numerous times, but atm im on a computer with onboard VIA video... anyone know where i can find drivers?
[04:38] <jts> i've had a brief search on the ubuntu wiki with no results
[04:38] <Zambezi> sbalneav, arp1 means slot 1? It's the first PCI-slot in the bottom.
[04:38] <Apollo> Any reason I can't get permission from terminal to change things. I tried to view sudoers with root and root password and it won't accept me.
[04:38] <specialbuddy> how does ubuntu know that I plugged in my usb harddrive
[04:39] <bimberi> ademan_: Open Synaptic and browse the packages with Status of "Installed (upgradeable)".  Properties -> Versions will show you where they're coming from.
[04:39] <jts> Apollo:  just do a sudo-s at the start of the session, and enter your password?
[04:39] <Zambezi> specialbuddy, df -m or check in Thunar or another filemanager.
[04:39] <ademan_> thanks bimberi
[04:39] <Clin1> Can any one help me access the curiour instaallation that i just installed?
[04:39] <sbalneav> Zambezi: No, it's got nothing to do with the slot.  just change the mac address in there to the one of the new card.  That will make sure that the new adapter gets mapped to eth0.
[04:39] <Apollo> jts ok thank you
[04:39] <specialbuddy> Zambezi, what is Thunar
[04:40] <Zambezi> specialbuddy, Filemanager.
[04:40] <jts> Apollo: sudo -s (i missed the space before) *
[04:40] <bimberi> !thunar

[04:40] <jts> can anyone help me with VIA video drivers?
[04:41] <Clin1> Can any one help me access the curiour instaallation that i just installed?
[04:41] <specialbuddy> Zambezi, how do I set up my computer to auto mount my harddrive
[04:41] <sbalneav> foormea: unplug and re-plug them?
[04:41] <foormea> well like totally disable usb then reload. oh maybe unload the module then reload it?
[04:42] <sbalneav> foormea: Why do you need to do this?  Most usb stuff's handled by udev.  It's all automatic.
[04:42] <foormea> cause my webcam won't appear in lsusb... :(
[04:43] <bluefox83> unplug it and plug it back in
[04:43] <foormea> it's integrated :D

[04:43] <bluefox83> dunno what to tell you
[04:43] <rothga1> how do I have ubuntu log in automatically with a system account? (mythtv user)
[04:43] <bluefox83> uhm..exactly how is a laptop integrated webcam usb?
[04:44] <dcraven> bluefox83, that's what I was thinking. hehe
[04:44] <ReYnoLd_ubaya_> \j #surabaya
[04:44] <Clin1> is jdub
[04:44] <Clin1> on
[04:44] <foormea> it's at the top part of the screen
[04:44] <bluefox83> you might check lspci O.o
[04:44] <foormea> you hardly see it in fact
[04:44] <bimberi> rothga1: System -> Administration -> Login Window, Security tab
[04:44] <jts> anyone? how can i install VIA drivers for my video?
[04:44] <foormea> yes lspci doesn't give anything either :((
[04:44] <bluefox83> feck if i know
[04:44] <shawn__> ok, so what is the best plugin to use with firefox to play video?
[04:44] <rothga1> bimberi: but that only allows me to log in with user accounts
[04:45] <bluefox83> shawn__, for my money? the mplayer plugin
[04:45] <foormea> i'll try restarting but i fear it won't change much. i hope i'm wrong :D
[04:46] <rothga1> bibberi: the mythtv user is a system account and doesn't show up in that drop down menu
[04:46] <rothga1> I tried typing it in but it didn't seem to work

[04:49] <Jimbo> i installed checkinstall and auto-apt
[04:49] <shingalated> oops
[04:49] <draeath> in xubuntu, does anyone know how to add exceptions so that a paticular removable device does not show as media?
[04:49] <bluefox83> shawn__, uhm..it's in the repos someplace

[04:50] <lightup> shingalated, have you checked the forums? someone may have had the same problem with beryl
[04:50] <shingalated> lightup, I get the startup screen and the tip of the day comes up but that's about it
[04:50] <bimberi> Jimbo: install libpcre3-dev and retry
[04:50] <draeath> my / is /dev/sda1 and I don't want it to show on my desktop or be bothered by the auto-mounter stuff
[04:50] <shawn__> bluefox83: k, thx
[04:50] <bimberi> Jimbo: starting at ./configure
[04:50] <shingalated> lightup, I don't see anything :(
[04:51] <tapas> what's the best place for env vars that should be used in my whole xsession?
[04:51] <Clin1> Hey some one test my chanel pretty pleasae....... #cmweb
[04:51] <akk> What's the hotplug replacement in edgy? I see /etc/hotplug is gone.
[04:51] <crimsun> akk: Linux+udev.
[04:51] <LjL> !offtopic | Clin1
[04:51] <ubotu> Clin1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:52] <Clin1> OML one wrong word and every one jumps down my throght
[04:52] <LjL> Clin1: *one*? no, not really.
[04:52] <akk> crimsun: So if I need to add a script so that my cardbus network card gets ifup'ed, where would I put it?
[04:52] <crimsun> akk: use interfaces(5)
[04:52] <LjL> anyway, this is not the freenode help channel. join #freenode please, or at least go to -offtopic, if what you need isn't Ubuntu support, Clin11
[04:52] <lightup> shingalated, if it's not throwing out an error message it could be anything.  Only thing I could suggest would be reinstalling either beryl or limewire.  Which did you install first?  If you installed LW first you could try reinstalling it now beryl is in charge of your windows
[04:52] <shingalated> lightup, actually I lied, I guess some other people are having the same problem
[04:53] <crimsun> akk: specifically, you need a pre hook.
[04:53] <Jimbo> Bimberi: i installed checkinstall and auto-apt...do I need to use> auto-apt run ./configure instead of ./configure?
[04:53] <shingalated> yeah it works if im in metacity
[04:53] <bimberi> Jimbo: i'm not familiar with auto-apt sorry
[04:53] <cafuego> Jimbo: Yes, you do.
[04:53] <Jimbo> k
[04:53] <LjL> Jimbo: yes, if you want to use auto-apt to help configuring. but then auto-apt will ask a lot of questions about packages to install, many of which you should answer NO to
[04:54] <LjL> Jimbo: perhaps it would be better if you just went through the configure normally and used auto-apt or apt-file as a help when you're stuck
[04:54] <Jimbo> do i have to use auto apt since i installed it?
[04:54] <shawn__> bluefox: just installed the mplayer and the mozilla plugin, no dice
[04:54] <cafuego> Jimbo: No, best is you use a precompiled package. <heh>
[04:54] <shawn__> bluefox83: just installed the mplayer and the mozilla plugin, no dice
[04:54] <Jimbo> i dont have a precompiled package
[04:55] <bluefox83> shawn__, what kind of movie is it?
[04:55] <bluefox83> shawn__, extension?
[04:55] <Jimbo> brb,,,gonna try again
[04:55] <akk> crimsun: A pre hook like pre-up? The problem is that it's never set as "up" ...
[04:55] <shawn__> eh, prob wmv but those play fine in vlc if I d/l and then open
[04:55] <crimsun> akk: even with an auto line?
[04:55] <jts> shawn__:  I followed your link, it looks like those drivers are for an ATI card? I'm on onboard video?
[04:55] <cafuego> akk: a cardbus card is set as up by cardmgr when inserted.
[04:56] <costalivan> Hello
[04:56] <costalivan> I'm using ubuntu 6.10
[04:56] <cuddlebug> guys i need some help, i burned the alternate ubuntu installer but it seems to be the same as the live cd, anyway im trying to manually edit the partition table i resized it so i had 2 gigs and 5 mb, it says i need to make a swap partition of 500 mb, is this a primary or extended partition? and what file system?
[04:56] <akk> Oh, hey, that time "auto" did it. It never did in breezy or dapper.
[04:56] <costalivan> but I have a problem with kismet
[04:56] <cuddlebug> 500 mb*
[04:57] <costalivan> somebody has kismet working ?
[04:57] <akk> cafuego: Is that new? cardmgr used to only handle pcmcia, and cardbus cards used hotplug instead.
[04:57] <shawn__> jts: not sure then, consult your mobo manf website...
[04:57] <costalivan> my interface is ath0
[04:57] <cafuego> akk: Hmm...
[04:57] <akk> (that would be great -- cardmgr always worked really well for pcmcia)
[04:57] <jts> cuddlebug: its a 'linux-swap" partition. my understanding is its like window's pagefile
[04:57] <cuddlebug> so is that extended or primary
[04:57] <Jimbo> ok...whats wrong with this  sudo auto-apt get install libpcre3-dev
[04:57] <cafuego> akk: maybe cardmgr hands off to hotplug; mine certainly makes  alog entry if a card is plugged in.
[04:57] <jts> shawn__:  alrighty. thankjs
[04:58] <lightup> shingalated, given that it seems your best bet would be to switch to metacity while using limewire seeing as you can choose it from the beryl tray icon menu.  It's a bit of an inconvenience though, maybe you could try using gtk-gnutella (in the repositories) instead.  Also make sure you file a bug to the beryl team, it could be a java incompatibiliy they'd want to know about
[04:58] <LjL> jts: same purpose, yes, but it's a partition and not a file. linux can use a file as well, though that's not generally done
[04:58] <cafuego> akk: All I need is an entry in interfaces here for th card and it gets run when I insert it
[04:58] <akk> cafuego: Maybe this is new, because with "auto" in interfaces, the card does seem to get configured, and definitely didn't before edgy.
[04:58] <Jimbo> LjL  whats wrong with this   sudo auto-apt get install libpcre3-dev
[04:58] <ReYnoLd_ubaya_> \j #surabaya
[04:59] <akk> cafuego: Before, I always had to add a script in /etc/hotplug/pci with the name of the driver
[04:59] <Jimbo> Bimberi: you still here?
[04:59] <costalivan> the error with kismet is
[04:59] <costalivan> FATAL: 'get_mode' does not return integer parameters
[04:59] <costalivan> any idea ?
[04:59] <Jimbo> Bimberi: whats wrong with the way Im trying to do this >sudo auto-apt get install libpcre3-dev
[05:00] <Jimbo> anyone?
[05:00] <cuddlebug> what file system do i need to pick for the ubuntu install parition?
[05:00] <costalivan> sudo apt-get install libpcre3-dev
[05:01] <wasabi_> cuddlebug: Depends which one you want.
[05:01] <Jimbo> thanx costalivan..even i should have seen that
[05:01] <Jimbo> first week with linux here
[05:01] <cuddlebug> well what do you suggest i really dont know
[05:01] <roughtrader> how do I builld an iso image out of some files in a folder?
[05:01] <atrus> anybody else seen feisty's aptitude taking a really long time to startup since the recent update?
[05:01] <wasabi_> cuddlebug: I suspect ext3 if you don't know any better
[05:01] <cuddlebug> k
[05:01] <jvolkman> cuddlebug, ext3 is the standard all-purpose filesystem
[05:03] <ReYnoLd_ubaya> \j #surabaya
[05:03] <Clin1> Any one good with apache'
[05:04] <ReYnoLd_ubaya_> \j #surabaya
[05:04] <ReYnoLd_ubaya_> \j #surabaya
[05:04] <cafuego> reynoLd_ubaya '/' not '\'
[05:06] <shawn__> yea, its just the wmv that aren
[05:07] <shawn__> bluefox83: yea, its just the wmv that are not playing
[05:07] <bluefox83> shawn__, i had issues with that too..change the action for it in the firefox download settings
[05:08] <Q_Continuum> What's the easy way to change boot/console resolution to a 16:9 (widescreen) resolution of 1280x800?  (Documentation I've found is for "normal" resolutions)
[05:09] <Jimbo> Now it says something about could not run Glib test program. heres the pastebin   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32256/
[05:09] <Jimbo> Im getting frustrated
[05:09] <cafuego> Q_Continuum: I don't think vgafb (which is what's used) supports widescreen. At all.
[05:09] <B_166-ER-X> !tvtuner
[05:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tvtuner - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <Jimbo> Been on linux 4 days and im still getting stuck on what i imagine should be simple
[05:10] <cafuego> Which is?
[05:10] <Q_Continuum> Dang.  Anything I can do to help get it to support widescreen? :D  (I assume its a software issue, and not a VESA/hardware issue)
[05:10] <Jimbo> do i need to install or re install something called glib...whatever that is
[05:10] <shawn__> bluefox83: not working, was that what got it to work for you?
[05:10] <cafuego> Q_Continuum: check with the framebuffer authors :-)
[05:10] <Toma-> Jimbo: why are you compiling?
[05:11] <Jimbo> Toma-: im trying to install a beta version or the Pan newsreader b 0.119
[05:11] <Jimbo> v0.119
[05:11] <Toma-> Jimbo: is pan in the ubuntu repos?
[05:11] <sizzam> Jimbo: are you using Pan for NZB files, or just regular news reading
[05:11] <Jimbo> no...not this version
[05:12] <Jimbo> nzb files
[05:12] <Toma-> Jimbo: thats ok, run 'sudo apt-get build-dep pan'
[05:12] <Toma-> thatll get all the stuff you neede to build pan
[05:12] <sizzam> Jimbo: have you heard of 'hellanzb' yet?
[05:12] <Toma-> ANY version
[05:12] <Jimbo> this is the only version that runs nzb
[05:13] <Jimbo> Toma-: will sudo apt-get build-dep pan get me the beta?
[05:13] <Toma-> not the beta, the stuff needed to build the beta
[05:13] <Toma-> then you run your ./configure/make/checkinstall
[05:13] <Jimbo> i downloaded the beta already
[05:13] <dbanger> I was wondering if someone could assist me with some grub difficulties in the desktop installer
[05:13] <sizzam> Jimbo: check this out when you get a chance, this is what i use for nzb and i love it --- http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=169749
[05:14] <Toma-> Jimbo: if you do compile anything, swap the command 'make install' with checkinstall... yourll have to install checkinstall, but its well worth the effort
[05:14] <Jimbo> i already installed checkinstall but i got another error...see pastebin?
[05:14] <Toma-> yep, just run that build-dep one and youll be right to configure again
[05:16] <Jimbo> Toma-: did you see that Glib error at the bottom>
[05:16] <Toma-> yep
[05:16] <Toma-> means a glib-dev package want installed
[05:16] <Pelo> evening all
[05:16] <Toma-> build-dep will get you all that
[05:17] <Jimbo> sizzam..no havent heard of it...only 4th day with this os
[05:17] <sizzam> Jimbo: I used to use klibido for NZB.  its a KDE app in the repos
[05:17] <toddobryan> Hey all. Since updating to 6.10 on a PowerPC (Powerbook G4), my audio won't play. In both AmaroK and Rhythmbox, the cursor flies way faster than it should and nothing comes out. It takes about 15 seconds to "play" a 3 minute song.
[05:17] <toddobryan> Any ideas?
[05:17] <sizzam> Jimbo: now I use hella, its all terminal based.  its a daemon thats always running.  as soon as you drop an NZB into a specified folder it picks it up and goes to work
[05:18] <Jojay> toddobryan: rescan your collection
[05:18] <Jojay> check your codecs
[05:18] <Jimbo> k
[05:18] <toddobryan> Did the first.
[05:18] <toddobryan> How do I check the codecs?
[05:18] <Pelo> toddobryan,  try uninstalling  rythmbox and reinstalling it
[05:18] <Jimbo> Toma so build dep is what i need..brb
[05:19] <dbanger> is anyone here able to help me with a grub issue on 6.10 desktop install?
[05:19] <Toma-> Jimbo: thats 'sudo apt-get build-dep packagename'
[05:20] <Pelo> dbanger,  what is the issue ?
[05:20] <Jimbo> Toma-: so would it be  sudo apt-get build-dep pan-o.119   ?
[05:20] <SAS_Spidey01> excuse me but what is the standard file system for Ubuntu 6.06 ?
[05:20] <dbanger> I have three ide controller, one onboard, and two PCI
[05:20] <AWOSLappy> SAS_Spidey01 -- ext3
[05:20] <Jimbo> i mean  sudo apt-get build-dep pan-0.119
[05:20] <SAS_Spidey01> Thanks
[05:21] <AWOSLappy> SAS_Spidey01 -- np :)
[05:21] <dbanger> install of grub fails with an unknown error when installing to hd0
[05:21] <Jimbo> brb
[05:21] <Toma-> Jimbo: no, 'sudo apt-get build-dep pan'
[05:21] <Pelo> dbanger,  how are you installing grub ?
[05:22] <Jimbo> toma-: wont that get the same package thats in the synaptic?
[05:22] <dbanger> Pelo, default via the desktop installer
[05:22] <AWOSLappy> My Synaptics TouchPad has suddently stopped working after reboot.  I am using Dapper Drake 6.06.1 LTS with X.org 1.0.2-0ubuntu10.4
[05:22] <Toma-> Jimbo: no, itll get the packages that the build needs to make pan
[05:22] <Pelo> dbanger,  you mean synaptic ?
[05:22] <dbanger> no, I mean this is a clean install from the live-cd
[05:23] <dbanger> sorry for the confusion
[05:23] <Pelo> dbanger,  does  ubuntu install ?
[05:23] <dbanger> yes, but it fails when installing grub
[05:23] <Jimbo> Toma-: im a bit confused but should I just run sudo apt-get build-dep pan and see what I get?
[05:23] <dbanger> all the files and filesystems are present
[05:23] <Pelo> dbanger,  try installing grub from synaptic
[05:24] <dbanger> ok
[05:24] <Toma-> Jimbo: run 'sudo apt-get build-dep pan' THEN try building pan again from the beta you got (eg. ./configure && make && checkinstall)
[05:24] <dbanger> from within the livecd?
[05:24] <Jimbo> ok
[05:24] <AWOSLappy> Also Ubuntu now hangs on bootup for a couple of minutes with the error '/sbin/modprobe': Unexpected exit (or something similar to that, I can't remember exactly -- too busy trying to fix mouse)
[05:24] <Pelo> dbanger,  no from the repos
[05:24] <Pelo> dbanger,  did you install ubuntu on your hdd ?
[05:25] <variant> ffs
[05:25] <AWOSLappy> Also I can't mount my NFS partitions; it comes up "mount to NFS server failed."
[05:25] <variant> firefox suddently stopped working for me
[05:25] <dbanger> Pelo, I installed ubuntu to my hdd from the livecd.  I cannot reboot, though, because grub failed to install.
[05:25] <AWOSLappy> !language | variant
[05:25] <ubotu> variant: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:25] <dbanger> there is no bootloader on my system currently
[05:25] <variant> AWOSLappy: i beg your pardon?
[05:25] <Pelo> dbanger,  ah
[05:26] <variant> AWOSLappy: what is that supposed to mean?
[05:26] <AWOSLappy> variant, ffs?  that's not exactly my idea of "family friendly".
[05:26] <shawn__> ok, mplayer won't play wmv but vlc does, how so?
[05:26] <variant> anyway, this is the error i get when starting firefox (firefox-bin:21133): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",
[05:26] <variant> then it just exits
[05:26] <Pelo> dbanger, is ubuntu the only os on that  hdd ?
[05:26] <variant> i tried without hte .mozilla direectory but same thing
[05:27] <dbanger> yes, but it is installed on hdi, since that is the order that my drives were detected.
[05:27] <variant> shawn__: vlc uses some codecs built in, you need w32codecs to get mplayer to play them
[05:27] <specialbuddy> how do I  set a fixed mount point for USB Hard Drives?
[05:28] <variant> specialbuddy: with a udev rule
[05:28] <specialbuddy> how do I write one of those?
[05:28] <variant> specialbuddy: for example, i have a usb key made by kingston. when i plug that exact key in and only that one it is created as /media/kingston
[05:28] <Pelo> dbanger,  try this ( no garanties),   , turn off computer,  unplug the other hdds ( leave only the ubuntu hdd plugged in ) ,  start comp, which should boot up ubuntu,  install grub from within ubuntu using synpatic,  turn off computer, plugg the other hdd backup ,  see what happens
[05:28] <variant> !udev
[05:29] <ubotu> udev: rule-based device node and kernel event manager. In component main, is important. Version 093-0ubuntu18 (edgy), package size 224 kB, installed size 768 kB
[05:29] <specialbuddy> variant, how would I figure out how to do this?
[05:29] <variant> specialbuddy: hold on a sec
[05:29] <dbanger> pelo, ubuntu won't boot at all since grub does not install
[05:29] <dbanger> pelo, rather, grub is installed, but it cannot install itself as the bootloader
[05:30] <Pelo> dbanger,  not even if it is the only os present on the computer ?
[05:30] <tgelter> hey guys, I get an error that says I have to compile gtkpod together with the mp4v2 library...assuming I have the gtkpod source and it's been configured, how do I compile in this way?
[05:30] <Pelo> dbanger,  that was by best shot, try looking up your problem in the forum is my last suggestion
[05:30] <dbanger> pelo, no os detected error occurred the last time I tried that.
[05:31] <highneko> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyiacxtIzYk
[05:31] <AWOSLappy> dbanger, I'll do a variant of what Pelo said:
[05:31] <AWOSLappy> dbanger, try unplugging all but the Ubuntu hard drive, then try to install GRUB.
[05:32] <Pelo> intersting approach
[05:32] <dbanger> Pelo/AWOSLappy thanks.  I'll give that a shot.
[05:32] <variant> specialbuddy: i dont remember off hte top of my head and i cant check for you untill i fix this firefox program im having
[05:32] <AWOSLappy> Thanks Pelo :)
[05:32] <specialbuddy> ok
[05:32] <dbanger> thanks both for your help.
[05:32] <specialbuddy> thanks though

[05:37] <Jimbo> Toma-: I got another pastebin  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32259/  now it says something about missing gmime..whatever that is
[05:37] <jokoon> I double clicked on the headphone icon to pop up this volume control
[05:37] <Cyrano_De> How do I start/control xscreensaver in Edgy Eft?  I cannot find the xscreensaver executable nor xscreensaver-command
[05:38] <jokoon> Just like on windows I try to rise the bass and treble to have a better sound "quality" instead on listening on something that sounds like an old radio
[05:38] <jokoon> And it saturates
[05:38] <jokoon> just like I would have loud speakers that are too small or something
[05:38] <AWOSLappy> How do you select text without the mouse?
[05:39] <Pelo> jokoon,  try running aslamixer from the termnal and see if you can do something with that
[05:39] <AWOSLappy> jokoon, he means alsamixer
[05:39] <Pelo> AWOSLappy,  try  holding down the ctrl key and using the arrows
[05:39] <Cyrano_De> AWOSLappy: You could use screen if your working in a terminal.
[05:39] <AWOSLappy> I am in Konsole.
[05:40] <gary_> is anyone here familiar with xen?
[05:40] <Jimbo> anyone know what else i need here...  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32259/  says something about missing `gimime'
[05:40] <Cyrano_De> AWOSLappy: Screen is your answer.  ctrl-a [ will get you in buffer mode from which you can use vi style syntax to highlight and copy text.
[05:41] <AWOSLappy> How do I use screen?
[05:41] <jokoon> It saturates too
[05:41] <AWOSLappy> I typed screen dmesg and it just scrolled up and then disappeared
[05:41] <RexKwanDo> speaking of alsamixer, that's why I'm here... I was (stupidly) checking to see if a plug in my soundcard was seated correctly and suddenly the sound went out.  Now, I have NO sound and I can't start alsamixer (it says device not found)... any ideas?
[05:41] <gary_> can anyone tell me a good setting for dom0_mem (for xen)...my system has 512 RAM
[05:41] <Cyrano_De> Screen is something all users should become familar with.
[05:42] <jokoon> Is there some other driver for a sound blaster live! ?
[05:42] <Cyrano_De> Just type screen in your konsole.  The default meta key is ctl-a.
[05:42] <AWOSLappy> I typed screen and it clears the screen and then brings me back to the prompt.

[05:44] <variant> AWOSLappy: open annother terminal and in the one running screen run top, in the other terminal type screen -RRD and watch the magic
[05:44] <bsnider> has anybody got lirc working with totem?
[05:44] <gary_> is anyone here familiar with xen?
[05:44] <carl> intell or power pc?
[05:44] <Jimbo> gary..im a total n00b here..what do i do  sudo apt-get install gmime-2.0  ?
[05:44] <variant> AWOSLappy: that works over ssh as well :) thats how i use irc
[05:44] <Cyrano_De> This will get you into an vi stile history mode.  You can then use vi commands to select and copy text from that buffer.
[05:44] <gary_> Jimbo..yes that exactly
[05:45] <gary_> Jimbo, if it shows that theres no such package, someone also mentioned libgmime2.0-dev
[05:45] <AWOSLappy> WHOA
[05:45] <DanaG> Is there any way to get fbsplash to work with Edgy?
[05:45] <DanaG> (I'm using a custom kernel.)
[05:45] <AWOSLappy> variant, I did that, the original one disappeared and the new one got all the stuff
[05:45] <Jimbo> lakecaj: sudo apt-get install libgmime1-dev  ?
[05:45] <DanaG> Upstart doesn't seem to like fbsplash.
[05:45] <variant> AWOSLappy: haha, screen virgin
[05:45] <jokoon> Is there some other driver for a sound blaster live! ?
[05:45] <variant> AWOSLappy: yeah, i use irc on a server in a different country :)
[05:45] <jokoon> (sound card)
[05:45] <Zambezi> The best way to compile is to use checkinstall right? But which number should I choose?
[05:46] <Jimbo> gary ok ill try that then try compiling again
[05:46] <variant> AWOSLappy: ssh, screen, irssi
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> variant yep
[05:46] <Pelo> jokoon,  try looking it up in the forum
[05:46] <crimsun> jokoon: snd-emu10k1 and snd-ca0106 are the appropriate drivers, depending on the sub{vendor,device} ids
[05:46] <Jimbo> too much work for a freakin beta newsreader install but its getting personal now...:)
[05:46] <crimsun> jokoon: what's the issue?
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> variant, now um, how to copy?
[05:46] <variant> AWOSLappy: copy what?
[05:46] <variant> AWOSLappy: copy paste?
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> variant yes
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> I need to copy part of my dmesg output for my bcm43xx problem
[05:46] <Cyrano_De> screen is a godsend when you need to run an app on a server and leave it running and take your laptop home.
[05:46] <AWOSLappy> it is crashing modprobe
[05:46] <jokoon> crimsun : rising the bass and treble saturates the sound
[05:47] <gary_> Jimbo, looks like lakecaj had it right...libgmime1-dev
[05:47] <AWOSLappy> Cyrano_De yeah it looks COOOOOOOOOOL.  :)
[05:47] <DanaG> I usually leave tone control off.
[05:47] <DanaG> 50% is neutral, I believe.
[05:47] <jokoon> I tried alsamixer but it is quite the same than the integrated UI
[05:47] <DanaG> I have a cardbus emu10k1
[05:47] <variant> AWOSLappy: what do you mean? why dont you copy/paste it to pastebin site?
[05:47] <AWOSLappy> jokoon, does this happen in Windows too?  and what sound board?
[05:47] <Cyrano_De> AWOSLappy: Here is a good intro that will help with copy/paste   http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Using_screen
[05:47] <AWOSLappy> variant, I don't know how to get screen in to copy mode
[05:47] <Poseidon> is there anyway to realize 3d desktop? where can i get the reference?
[05:48] <AWOSLappy> Cyrano_De thanks
[05:48] <jokoon> AWOSLappy : no
[05:48] <Pelo> jokoon,  in alsamixer if you use the arrows to go all the way to the right and pass that you get more options
[05:48] <DanaG> Poseidon: google 'edgy beryl'
[05:48] <ksmurf> http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/98163/dell-refunds-linux-users-who-ditch-xp.html
[05:48] <Cyrano_De> AWOSLappy: There is a short section there on select, copy, paste
[05:48] <ksmurf> that is awesome
[05:48] <Cyrano_De> How do I start/control xscreensaver in Edgy Eft?  I cannot find the xscreensaver executable nor xscreensaver-command
[05:48] <jokoon> Pelo yes but this is quite the same
[05:48] <crimsun> jokoon: make sure 'PCM' is set to 77% _max_
[05:49] <DanaG> Cyrano_De: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=166269
[05:49] <jokoon> crimsun : saturates too
[05:49] <AWOSLappy> ksmurf, WOW!
[05:49] <crimsun> jokoon: then keep lowering 'PCM'
[05:49] <DanaG> er
[05:49] <squidly> i just installed ubuntu 6.06, and I tried updated in my kernel but my usb mount and cdrom dont work with the new kernel

[05:49] <squidly> any ideas?
[05:49] <DanaG> is another
[05:50] <DanaG> use the 195557
[05:50] <Pelo> squidly,  using grub ? boot the old kernel and uninstall the old one
[05:50] <jokoon> crimsun with pcm at 10 and master at 56 it saturates too
[05:50] <variant> anyone know how to fix this problem starting firefox? : (firefox-bin:5998): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap",
[05:50] <crimsun> jokoon: which elements are you increasing, and how much?
[05:50] <squidly> Pelo: no.. the old kernel works.. the new one does not
[05:51] <jokoon> crimsun : treble and bass
[05:51] <Jimbo> gary: i ran em both. first one couldnt find it, second one (sudo apt-get install libgmime1-dev) found and appeared to install something but when I ran ./configure , I got the same error
[05:51] <Pelo> squidly,  I meant uninstall the new one
[05:51] <crimsun> jokoon: yes, and how much are the deltas?
[05:51] <Pelo> sorry
[05:51] <DanaG> I can't stand usplash -- I want fbsplash!
[05:51] <squidly> Pelo: umm.. how can that help me out? the install kernel does not work with my video cards
[05:51] <crimsun> DanaG: you're free to modify it as you please
[05:51] <jokoon> crimsun where are these ?
[05:52] <DanaG> I tried.
[05:52] <DanaG> I end up with messages overwriting the silent splash.
[05:52] <crimsun> jokoon: the deltas are by how much you're changing them
[05:52] <Pelo> DanaG,  compile it manualy
[05:52] <DanaG> I mean, I have the kernel support.
[05:52] <Cyrano_De> DanaG: the xscreensaver commands do not seem to even be available in the Edgy Eft repositories.  I do not have an executable and apt-cache search gives me no more than I already have installed.
[05:52] <jokoon> crimsun I push them to the max, 100
[05:52] <DanaG> Right now I have usplash for boot, and fbsplash for console background/
[05:52] <crimsun> jokoon: have you tried smaller deltas for each?
[05:52] <DanaG> Cyrano_De: you may need to enable some other repos
[05:52] <jokoon> but anyway I don't have the quality I have with windows
[05:53] <DanaG> In synaptic.
[05:53] <jokoon> crimsun no
[05:53] <variant> anyone know how to start firefox in safe mode?
[05:53] <jokoon> I keep to think it should be some driver issue
[05:53] <DanaG> I think somehow Winamp > Xine > Gstreamer, quality-wise.
[05:53] <Pelo> squidly,  you didnt, mention that, I can'T help you then, it's over my head
[05:53] <crimsun> jokoon: I can't conclude that until you find what delta size triggers the symptom
[05:54] <squidly> Pelo: yea.. kind of a bad situation
[05:54] <dope12345> i can see wireless networks but can't connect to them
[05:54] <Cyrano_De> DanaG: I've got restricted, universe and all the other enabled.  I don't know of any others besides the automatix ones which also do not seem to have more.
[05:54] <Jordan_U> variant: firefox -safe-mode
[05:55] <DanaG> Automatix is evil in some cases.  At least use their repos but not their script.
[05:55] <Pelo> squidly,  if no one here can help try looking up your usb drive model number in the forum for a solution
[05:55] <Jimbo> why cant I compile this freakin thing? heres another pastebin   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32261/
[05:55] <squidly> Pelo: umm.. its a USB keyboard and mouse
[05:55] <crimsun> DanaG: GSt can't possibly fit there. It's a plugin-based framework, not a codec.
[05:55] <variant> i moved /usr/lib to annohter parititon and symlinked it to /usr/lib but this seems to have cause firefox to stop working. anyonw konw why?
[05:56] <DanaG> Well, whatever.  It may be the audio drivers, actually.
[05:56] <jokoon> crimsun : I lowered the wave entry and it seems much more fine now
[05:56] <Jimbo> getting late..ill try it again tommorrow
[05:56] <DanaG> Either that, or I'm just imagining the difference.
[05:56] <Jordan_U> variant: Does safemode work?
[05:56] <dark_light> About automatix: I think Ubuntu got from Debian the nicest thing it has: the package system. It should be used
[05:56] <Zambezi> Is it necassary to install a packages to run ./configure?
[05:56] <Kingsqueak> squidly: if your usb drive has a volume label on it, just use the LABEL= style entry in fstab, that way if it changes device numbers it will always just mount when found by the LABEL
[05:56] <crimsun> DanaG: case in point: there are at least two different mpeg 1 layer 3 codecs for GSt
[05:56] <Pelo> squidly,  system > prefts > removable disk and media
[05:56] <crimsun> jokoon: good, that's a known issue and is hardware-based, not driver-based.

[05:57] <Jewfro-Macabbi> I'm using mplayer/mencoder installed from source, to try and convert flv's to avi,  getting this error:
[05:57] <Jewfro-Macabbi> MPlayer was compiled without libmp3lame support.-lameopts is not an MEncoder option, anyone help here?
[05:57] <Pelo> squidly,  sorry never mind that last one, but you can still look your problem up in the forum
[05:57] <Jordan_U> Zambezi: Yes, but what are you trying to install, chances are you don't need to compile from source.
[05:57] <jokoon> remember to suggest to lower PCM and Wave too
[05:57] <DanaG> And don't use Tone controls.
[05:57] <crimsun> jokoon: I already set those to 80% in the initscript; if they were higher, they're user-specific. I can't control what users do.
[05:57] <DanaG> Some controls are gain rather than attenuation.
[05:57] <Zambezi> Jordan_U, I do need to install from sources. There's no packages in apt-get.
[05:58] <variant> Jordan_U: no it does not
[05:58] <variant> Jordan_U: i notice that the real firefox binary is located in /usr/lib/ so i am assuming my move of the dir has stopped it working. dont see why a symlink shouldnt work just as well though
[05:58] <sizzam> Jewfro-Macabbi: apparently you can convert with ffmpeg, have you tried that yet?
[05:58] <Jordan_U> Zambezi: What program are you trying to install, you will need to get the build dependencies for it.
[05:58] <Jordan_U> ?
[05:58] <squidly> Kingsqueak: its not a usb drive
[05:59] <variant> squidly: what filesystem is on it?
[05:59] <jokoon> crimsun  Can't just they be limited by default ?
[05:59] <Jewfro-Macabbi> sizzam, no I haven't, I'll google that
[05:59] <Zambezi> Jordan_U, I'm trying to build latest rtorrent.

[05:59] <squidly> IT IS NOT A FILESYSTEM!!!! IT IS A MOUSE AND KEYBOARD!!!
[05:59] <Jewfro-Macabbi> sizzam, thanks
[05:59] <Zambezi> squidly, Use lowecase!
[05:59] <variant> squidly: so why do you want to name them specifically?
[05:59] <Kingsqueak> squidly: you said 'usb mount'
[05:59] <crimsun> jokoon: they are limited by default.
[05:59] <Kingsqueak> squidly: that is why all of us have been saying fs related things
[06:00] <variant> squidly: yeah, get your facts right and dont shout at us, we are just trying to help you
[06:00] <Pelo> squidly,  go to the forum and search for  usb mouse edgy and usb keyboard edgy
[06:00] <jokoon> I mean limited at 80%
[06:00] <DanaG> squidly: you can use evdev by Option "Name" in xorg.conf
[06:00] <squidly> variant: ok I've said like 10 times that is a use keyboard mouse.
[06:00] <DanaG> heck, I'll post my xorg.conf
[06:00] <carl> does anyone know which version of ubuntu 6.06 I should download for a mac book pro with an intel chip?  i386 or  power pc  version?
[06:00] <squidly> DanaG: its not an issue in the xconfig.. its kernel issue.. it does not start the usb system with the new kernel
[06:01] <variant> squidly: not directly to me you havent, like i am supposed to watch for everything you say in this channel when im talking to like 5 other people at the same tim
[06:01] <crimsun> jokoon: no, because some revisions of the stac76xx codec aren't audible unless those elements are set above the non-normalised 70%
[06:01] <DanaG> That's odd.
[06:01] <rickyfingers> carl: i386
[06:01] <squidly> variant: that is why in this channel I use the name before I reply
[06:01] <Jordan_U> Zambezi: You need to install the build essentials package and have: libcurl >= 7.12.x and libsigc++ >= 2.0.x
[06:01] <jokoon> sound obvious
[06:01] <DanaG> What's this about Sigmatel?
[06:01] <variant> squidly: well done
[06:01] <DanaG> I have issues with my sigmatel.
[06:01] <crimsun> jokoon: again, it's a hardware issue, not a driver one. We would have resolved this years ago in the driver if it were that simple.
[06:01] <Pelo> g'night folks
[06:01] <Jordan_U> Zambezi: Sorry, that package name is build-essential
[06:02] <squidly> variant: I do that in just about every channel that has more the 10 people in it, and my responce is directed to a single person
[06:02] <DanaG> http://www.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette
[06:02] <DanaG> I have put my xorg.conf and rc.local and modprobe.d/alsa-base there.
[06:02] <carl> rickyfingers  thanks
[06:02] <jokoon> crimsun I don't deny that, at least on ubuntu, good drivers are installed by default, not like windows.
[06:02] <variant> squidly: fine, you didnt tell me that you were talking about a keyboard/mouse. explain what you want to acheive and i will help you
[06:03] <DanaG> I had to make a script to repeatedly remove and re-modprobe snd-hda-intel to get it to work.
[06:03] <squidly> variant: sorry.. I just installed 6.0.6 via the alternate cd (for Raid)
[06:03] <crimsun> DanaG: which codec do you have/
[06:03] <DanaG> STAC9250
[06:03] <squidly> variant: i updated my kenrel and now when I boot I can use my usb mouse our keyboard
[06:03] <DanaG> (notebook is Gateway M685)
[06:03] <crimsun> DanaG: are you tracking alsa-driver hg? If not, you need to.
[06:03] <function1> so, is it true i can only get the /dev/sequencer if i have an audigy or sb live or some such card?
[06:03] <variant> squidly: you can use them?
[06:03] <DanaG> tracking?
[06:04] <crimsun> function1: utterly false. modprobe snd-seq.
[06:04] <squidly> variant: is there any known issues with the 2.6.15-27-386 kernel
[06:04] <variant> squidly: i take it you mean can't
[06:04] <crimsun> function1: then use timidity
[06:04] <DanaG> Oh, and there's no input on that or on my cardbus Audigy.
[06:04] <jokoon> crimsun other thing : I searched emu10k1 in the synaptic manager, it is normal that snd-emu10k1 is not there ?
[06:04] <squidly> variant: correct with the 15-26 kernel I can use them.. that is what I'm using now
[06:04] <variant> squidly: not that i know of. what does dmesg say when you plug/unplug one of the devices
[06:04] <function1> crimsun: i've got the device, but nothing (ie no midis) will play. i modprobed that mod too
[06:04] <crimsun> DanaG: tracking means following development in the sense of compiling daily snapshots
[06:04] <DanaG> aah.
[06:04] <DanaG> I updated my kernel tree with the 1.0.13 ALSA
[06:04] <crimsun> function1: did you invoke ``timidity -iA'' (after installing timidity)?
[06:05] <DanaG> Is there any easy way to update it while not breaking the packaged-ness of ALSA?
[06:05] <Jordan_U> Zambezi: Since rtorrent is in the repositories you can probably get all the build dependencies by running: sudo apt-get build-dep rtorrent But the dependencies may be a little different for the newest version.
[06:05] <aztracker1> quick question, if anyone knows.. is there a tutorial on how to switch to an SMP kernel?  I'm using a p4HT, I have the HT dissabled, not sure if it's better off that way in nix or not?
[06:05] <squidly> variant: variant I dont know I cant even get to my dmesg
[06:05] <jokoon> ah sorry, seems fine
[06:05] <function1> crimsun: oh yea i followed some ubuntu community doc called MidiSoftwareSynthesiswithTimidity or some such, dont think it worked, but let me try again
[06:05] <variant> aztracker1: edgy uses smp enabled kernel by default. dapper you have to install it with apt-get
[06:05] <crimsun> DanaG: you're only concerned about alsa-driver; just overwrite what the kernel provides. Use ``make install-modules'' instead of ``make install''
[06:06] <aztracker1> okay, am in edgy, should probably turn HT back on in the next reboot.
[06:06] <variant> squidly: i see, set ssh to start automatically and use a different system to check dmesg
[06:06] <variant> squidly: if you can
[06:06] <aztracker1> variant, thx
[06:06] <squidly> variant: no joy there :( no other working comptuer
[06:06] <Zambezi> Jordan_U, I'll give it a shot. I'll check on the homepage. The compilation goes alot better now. Thanks.
[06:06] <function1> crimsun: ohhhh so timidity isnt a replacement for the hardware seq?
[06:06] <squidly> variant: if I had a laptop I would have done that.. ssh is what I use to admin remote servers
[06:06] <DanaG> Development release ---
[06:06] <crimsun> function1: it's software.
[06:06] <variant> squidly: so when you boot that kernel your mouse/kb dont work at all? is this a custom compiled kernel as it sounds more like usb hid is not compiled into the kernel
[06:07] <DanaG> just --- -- no version
[06:07] <squidly> variant: is the kernel in aptitude
[06:07] <Jordan_U> Zambezi: But remember, it is always safer to use the version from Ubuntu's repositories.
[06:07] <variant> squidly: what?
[06:07] <variant> squidly: it is the kernel in apt you mean?
[06:07] <function1> crimsun: yea, but you still need to modprove snd-seq to use timidity? i mean i did modprobe, i am just curious
[06:07] <squidly> variant: yea I went in to aptitue (the ncurses apt gui) and did an update
[06:07] <crimsun> function1: through edgy, yes. I committed the fix for feisty last week.
[06:08] <Zambezi> Jordan_U, It doesn't work properly.
[06:08] <jmx> anyone wanna help me install a flash player?
[06:08] <variant> squidly: well, you cant really fix it with the current setup you have (cant access the box) so either try a newer kernel when one comes along or stick with what you have at the momment

[06:08] <DanaG> The most consistent boot themeing I have seen is in various SuSE versions.
[06:08] <variant> squidly: was there a particular reason for upgrading?
[06:08] <function1> crimsun: nice :)
[06:08] <DanaG> It has grub AND fbsplash/bootsplash AND gdm/kdm AND gnome splash /ksplash
[06:08] <squidly> variant: yea smp and I need the nvidia drivers for the kernel
[06:09] <variant> squidly: :/
[06:09] <squidly> variant: yea rock > me < hardplace
[06:09] <variant> DanaG: yeah, theme management could be better integrated in ubuntu
[06:09] <DanaG> With a spinny thing, even.
[06:09] <variant> squidly: lol
[06:09] <jmx> hey anyone wanna help me with installing a flash player?
[06:09] <DanaG> I just wish there were a choice between usplash and fbsplash.
[06:10] <squidly> variant: yea and I messed up the grub install and it over wrote the windows mbr I had too.
[06:10] <DanaG> The one thing I do have to give usplash credit for is the presence of fake-widescreen themes.
[06:10] <variant> squidly: why do you need windows mbr?
[06:10] <variant> squidly: setup grub to boot windows
[06:10] <squidly> variant: I use windows for games and windows is on its own hdd
[06:10] <jmx> hey
[06:10] <variant> squidly: set grub to boot it
[06:10] <DanaG> Current fbsplash background: http://www.bootsplash.de/files/themes/screenshots/Theme-Ubuntu-verbose-top.png
[06:10] <Jordan_U> jmx: Do you want to install flash 7 or 9 ?
[06:10] <function1> crimsun: yea so running timidity -iA -B2,8 -Os1l -s 44100 and then trying to do something like 'pmidi -p 128:0 mymid.mid' doesnt play anything
[06:11] <jmx> 9 I guess
[06:11] <function1> however just doing timidity mymid.mid works
[06:11] <squidly> variant: grub can?? i didnt know that.. i'm used to lilo for booting
[06:11] <specialbuddy> how do you write a script to perform a command when you run it?
[06:11] <variant> squidly: yeah, grub is very very powerful. lilo is a bit limmited
[06:11] <crimsun> function1: instead of amidi?
[06:11] <squidly> variant: yea I know that is why i'm teaching my self grub.
[06:11] <DanaG> I tried snd-emu10k1-synth and snd-emux-synth.
[06:11] <Jordan_U> jmx: 9 is beta, it is more likely to crash but IMO the fixes to problems with flash 7 make up for it.
[06:11] <function1> but when i do use the pmidi -p 128:0 mymid.mid i do see stuff in the terminal i opened timidity in
[06:11] <function1> k lemme try amidi
[06:12] <DanaG> They played (once I loaded soundfonts), but they froze after a short time.
[06:12] <variant> specialbuddy: just put the command in a text file as you would write it on the command line, save it and chmod +x it then you should be able to click the textfile(script) in nautilus to have it run
[06:12] <squidly> variant: how could I setup grub to boot windoze?
[06:12] <variant> squidly: 2 secs, will get you an example
[06:12] <squidly> variant: kk ty

[06:13] <GigaClon> weird problem, some times when i browse to a website it directs me to noj.asp or audit.asp even though those pages don't exist on that server, it also seems to be independant of the website
[06:13] <|9mmCensor|> I have a wireless (eek) question.  I just installed U6.10 and am trying to connect to my unsecured wireless network, with an Orinoco Gold B card.  iwconfig ses the network name, but I dont get any network connectivity.  Is there something special I have to do to connect to the network?

[06:13] <squidly> variant: how hard is it to make a custom kernel for ubuntu? the normal make && make install type stuff?
[06:13] <DanaG> squidly: I use make-kpkg
[06:14] <jmx> Am I not suppost to use synaptic?
[06:14] <crimsun> function1: any error messages?
[06:14] <variant> squidly: its a bit more irritating than in other distros but its not hard
[06:14] <DanaG> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=43065
[06:14] <DanaG> I used 2.6.18 and added the 'emission1' (google it) patchset.
[06:14] <Jordan_U> jmx: The beta version isn't in the repositories.
[06:14] <function1> crimsun: no. no output whatsoever
[06:14] <variant> squidly: use slackware or gentoo if you want to mess around like that. ubuntu sucks for anyone wanting to actualy learn
[06:14] <squidly> variant: ahh ok.. I'm used to sourcemage for kernel installs..
[06:14] <DanaG> Just be aware that you have to reverse the badram patch.
[06:14] <AWOSLappy> I can't get my Synaptics TouchPad to work, and I can't get my external PS/2 mouse to work either.
[06:14] <variant> squidly: ew
[06:14] <crimsun> function1: need strace -fF and ltrace, then
[06:15] <jmx> so I just download from site?
[06:15] <squidly> variant: I know linux.. I just dont have time to keep up a gentoo or slak box
[06:15] <mnepton> variant: that's ... uhhh ... i ... uhhh ... whatever ...
[06:15] <variant> squidly: what disk is windows on?
[06:15] <jmx> I dont knwo what that patch is
[06:15] <AWOSLappy> I am on Ubuntu Dapper 6.06.1 LTS and Xorg.
[06:15] <variant> squidly: and what partition?
[06:15] <function1> crimsun: so, those track function calls and stuff right? what do i need to look at, aplaymidi?
[06:15] <Jordan_U> jmx: download the .deb file from the link ubotu gave.
[06:15] <DanaG> I'd like to have a system that's more customizable, but I don't want to wait for a helluvalot of compilation.
[06:15] <squidly> variant: hda1 = windows
[06:15] <crimsun> function1: yes.
[06:15] <squidly> variant: sda and sdb = md for linux

[06:15] <Nukez> Hi
[06:16] <Nukez> I need some help with Wifi
[06:16] <AWOSLappy> Nukez, the Wii isn't even out yet.
[06:16] <AWOSLappy> Nukez, disregard my last.
[06:16] <AWOSLappy> I read it wrong :x
[06:16] <jmx> cant find link..brain fart
[06:16] <Nukez> lol
[06:16] <mnepton> variant: then express it as such.
[06:16] <variant> squidly: ok, the grub.conf should have a section with title windows rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1
[06:16] <Jordan_U> jmx: Dapper or Edgy?
[06:16] <function1> oh wow that looks scary
[06:16] <Nukez> I have looked up the wiki pages but I still cant get it working
[06:16] <squidly> variant: in /boot/grub/grub.conf?
[06:16] <variant> squidly: each on a different line
[06:17] <variant> squidly: yeah, or /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:17] <Nukez> Ubuntu seems to detect my card but when I enter my info and try to activate, it dosent work
[06:17] <mnepton> variant: my opinion is that if you think Gentoo compiles with --teach-me-linux then you're on crack.
[06:17] <roughtrader> how do I make files outside of my home directory writable and executable by default?
[06:17] <specialbuddy> in fstab, how do I give everyone rights to a drive?
[06:17] <|9mmCensor|> Is it a bad thing if your wireless device is listed as eth2 instead of wlanX
[06:17] <mnepton> |9mmCensor|: not at all
[06:17] <variant> mnepton: whats gentoo got to do with learning "linux"?
[06:17] <function1> crimsun: yea no way i could possibly interpret this with my current knowledge. thanks for help anyway
[06:17] <DanaG> My wifi is eth1.
[06:18] <crimsun> function1: pastebin it
[06:18] <|9mmCensor|> ok.
[06:18] <function1> kay
[06:18] <Nukez> anyone have any ideas as to what it could be?
[06:18] <mnepton> variant: [00:14:38]  <variant> squidly: use slackware or gentoo if you want to mess around like that. ubuntu sucks for anyone wanting to actualy learn  <--- what am i missing?
[06:18] <squidly> mnepton variant lmao
[06:18] <specialbuddy> in fstab, how do I give everyone the right to mount a drive?
[06:18] <Nukez> it cant even scan for my ssid... so would that be a driver error?
[06:19] <variant> mnepton: what is your problem? you get out of bed the wrong side or somthing? I am entitled to my opinion as are you
[06:19] <specialbuddy> in fstab, how do I give everyone the right to mount a drive?
[06:19] <variant> specialbuddy: use the option "users"
[06:19] <AWOSLappy> mnepton, variant means learning how to COMPILE the kernel, not learning how to USE the kernel :)
[06:19] <variant> specialbuddy: they will have to mount it by the mount point
[06:19] <squidly> ok ill brb
[06:19] <mnepton> variant: "use Gentoo because Ubuntu sucks if you want to learn Linux. not that using Gentoo has anything to do with learning Linux." seems to be what you're saying. and when called on it, you start the personal jibes. really stellar.
[06:20] <variant> AWOSLappy: i wasnt talking about the kernel
[06:20] <squidly> variant: time to reboot and check some things thanks.. hopefully this works
[06:20] <mchonis> hey all, I'm lookin 2 buy a USB game controller, anybody know a good one that works with ubuntu?
[06:20] <Jewfro-Macabbi> sizzam, worked like a charm
[06:20] <mnepton> AWOSLappy: you can compile a kernel in Ubuntu as easily as in Gentoo
[06:20] <squidly> mnepton: gentoo has the "gentoo" way
[06:20] <matroblend> Where do I go to find out how to install debs from sf.com as the add remove programs does not have the program I want to install?
[06:20] <mnepton> which is rarely the "right way" ;)
[06:20] <squidly> ok brb variant thanks for you help
[06:20] <AWOSLappy> variant, mnepton, Wowsers I really messed up :P
[06:20] <sizzam> Jewfro-Macabbi: yep, i just tried it as well, i'm trying to write a script to convert them all in one shot now
[06:20] <squidly> mnepton: heh IMHO yea.. they do there own thing..
[06:21] <squidly> anywho brb (hopefully)
[06:21] <jmx> DAPPER I think
[06:21] <variant> mnepton: for a start, i didnt say "linux" that being hte kernel. and imo, gentoo _is_ good if you want to learn to be familiar with the command line as it makes much more effort to make people comfertable in this environment whereas ubuntu activly trys to stop people having to use the command line
[06:21] <jmx> I had to upgrade allday
[06:21] <jmx> for a lil while
[06:21] <variant> mnepton: feel free to have the last word. i hate pointless arguments like this

[06:22] <variant> /ignore pwns
[06:22] <crimsun> mnepton: (sorry, your smoke break is a far better use of time )
[06:23] <GigaClon> weird problem, some times when i browse to a website it directs me to noj.asp or audit.asp even though those pages don't exist on that server, it also seems to be independant of the website
[06:23] <globe> hello all
[06:23] <Nukez> so does anyone have any ideas as to what the broblem could be?
[06:23] <mnepton> variant: 99% of users have no idea what a kernel is, never mind an interest in compiling one. if you're intrigued enough to try to compile your own kernel, you can do it on Ubuntu as easily as on Gentoo.
[06:23] <specialbuddy> can only root mount things?
[06:23] <jokoon> someone advised me to use artmanager to set themes on gnome on ubuntu ... any suggestions ?
[06:23] <DanaG> I do like the Ubuntu art.
[06:23] <Jordan_U> jmx: ( to find what version of Ubuntu you have ) What is the output of: cat /etc/*version ?
[06:23] <variant> specialbuddy: no, users can mount them too if they are specified in the fstab
[06:23] <DanaG> Except for the fact that the metacity colors don't match progressbar colors.
[06:23] <mnepton> specialbuddy: correct
[06:24] <mnepton> specialbuddy: but you can change that in fs ... never mind
[06:24] <variant> specialbuddy: only root can specify a new mount point or mount a device not the fstab
[06:24] <specialbuddy> I'm trying to set up a script for mounting my harddrives
[06:24] <function1> crimsun: http://pastebin.com/826368
[06:24] <specialbuddy> because I want them to go to specific locations and every other way is hard to figure out
[06:24] <function1> sorry for the wait
[06:24] <variant> specialbuddy: what do you want to do exactlyu? it might be better to do it with udev
[06:24] <B_166-ER-X> i just installed a Winfast TV tuner 2000Xp , and although i can watch composite1 with xawtv, i cannot (i dont know why) record what i see,  could someone tell me of a good 'tv tuner' app that runs on Edgy ?  thankx..
[06:25] <variant> specialbuddy: thats a udev job
[06:25] <Jordan_U> specialbuddy: It would probably be better to just set up your fstab.
[06:25] <variant> specialbuddy: take a look at how to make udev rules
[06:25] <|9mmCensor|> oh, I just noticed I have two wireless devices, one is the stock intel broadcom built in device(eth1).  should I turn that OFF to use my orinoco card(eth2)???
[06:25] <function1> crimsun: and it doesnt finish, i have to ctrl+c
[06:25] <crimsun> function1: no time right now to look; I'll try in an hour
[06:25] <AWOSLappy> Can anybody please help me?  I'm in desparate need of help.
[06:25] <variant> specialbuddy: they are really cool
[06:25] <function1> crimsun: okay :)
[06:25] <mnepton> AWOSLappy: with ... ?
[06:25] <Jordan_U> AWOSLappy: What is the problem?
[06:25] <variant> specialbuddy: but yeah, if its static devices then fstab is best.. usb keys or somthing then you might want to go with udev
[06:25] <AWOSLappy> I can't get my Synaptics TouchPad to work, and I can't get my external PS/2 mouse to work either.
[06:25] <DanaG> hmm...
[06:26] <mnepton> AWOSLappy: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:26] <AWOSLappy> And at boot time the bcm43xx module causes a page fault in modprobe
[06:26] <variant> AWOSLappy: not with that kernel eh?
[06:26] <specialbuddy> I'm going to be unplugging and plugging variant
[06:26] <DanaG> Good luck finding modelines.....
[06:26] <AWOSLappy> variant, hmm?
[06:26] <specialbuddy> udev is confusing
[06:26] <specialbuddy> I just want to script on the desktop to mount the harddrive
[06:26] <variant> specialbuddy: well, you can specify the sysfs UUID or name in fstab
[06:26] <AWOSLappy> mneption, X works otherwise.  I mean, the keyboard, the TFT, everything else works.

[06:27] <matroblend>  Where do I go to find out how to install debs from sf.com as the add remove programs does not have the program I want to install?
[06:27] <mnepton> AWOSLappy: move the existing config aside, reconfigure and get the input devices working, then meld the pertinent bits into the old config
[06:27] <DanaG> AWOSLappy: do you see errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[06:27] <Jordan_U> matroblend: What program?

[06:28] <AWOSLappy> mnepton, okay
[06:28] <matroblend> Make human
[06:28] <DanaG> pastebin at least the error lines.
[06:28] <specialbuddy> I want them to mount to a specific location variant
[06:28] <variant> AWOSLappy: can you get a hold of a laptop to ssh from?
[06:28] <mnepton> AWOSLappy: just keep copies of *everything* in case of disaster
[06:28] <variant> specialbuddy: yes, specify the location in fstab
[06:28] <AWOSLappy> variant, I am *on* my laptop
[06:28] <AWOSLappy> mnepton, what do I need to copy?
[06:28] <variant> AWOSLappy: i mean, an alternative system
[06:28] <AWOSLappy> variant, well I have a nice server here with ssh
[06:29] <specialbuddy> where is the disk mounter variant?
[06:29] <variant> AWOSLappy: I thought you couldnt log in (because the keyboard etc is not working)
[06:29] <AWOSLappy> variant, no...?  just the mouse.
[06:29] <Jordan_U> matroblend: Make Human ?
[06:29] <variant> specialbuddy: in the gnome-panel add to panel window
[06:29] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, how do I select the text without a mouse?!
[06:29] <variant> AWOSLappy: ah, could have sworn you said keyboard and mouse
[06:29] <DanaG> aah....
[06:29] <matroblend> Yes it is a 3D program
[06:29] <AWOSLappy> variant I said above -> X works otherwise.  I mean, the keyboard, the TFT, everything else works.
[06:29] <DanaG> Well, perhaps just describe the errors.
[06:30] <AWOSLappy> variant, also -> I can't get my Synaptics TouchPad to work, and I can't get my external PS/2 mouse to work either.

[06:34] <DanaG> well, I don't know what to do...
[06:34] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, noooo!   :-( :-( :-( :-(

[06:35] <AWOSLappy> !
[06:35] <Jordan_U> matroblend: There is a .deb file for Ubuntu : http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=150931
[06:35] <TheGino> Can i import the firefox bookmark file from a window base partition to the linux partition with fire and is it safe?
[06:35] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, could it be that it just so happened when I rebooted the computer the touchpad died?
[06:36] <variant> specialbuddy: change vfat to auto and user to users
[06:36] <Jordan_U> matroblend: Just double click the .deb file.
[06:36] <TheGino> firefox^
[06:36] <specialbuddy> thanks
[06:36] <matroblend> Yes Jordan But I don't know how to install it properly
[06:36] <DanaG> That wouldn't explain the external one failing.
[06:36] <Zambezi> Anybody now what "openssl's crypto" is?
[06:36] <DanaG> Though...
[06:36] <variant> specialbuddy: /media/usbmedia has to exist as well
[06:36] <variant> specialbuddy: the directory
[06:36] <function1> is there some new equivalent to alsaconf? its not in synaptic and its not on my system
[06:36] <DanaG> wait, I think my dad had an old notebook where the touchpad died, and the ps/2 port stopped working.
[06:36] <specialbuddy> it exists
[06:36] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, could the PS/2 controller have died?
[06:36] <variant> specialbuddy: then to mount it as a user you would just do mount /media/usbmedia
[06:37] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, really.
[06:37] <DanaG> so that IS possible....
[06:37] <Jordan_U> matroblend: What do you mean by properly?
[06:37] <crimsun> function1: we removed alsaconf from Hoary because it's unmaintained.
[06:37] <variant> crimsun: thats a shame, it was very very good
[06:37] <linuxd> hi i am installing ubuntu my ferst time
[06:37] <linuxd> can some help
[06:37] <alieas> I have installed Edgy on a laptop.  top reports constant 45% CPU usage, but does not show the offender.  xorg is only taking up 1% if that, and it is the biggest hog on the list.  How is this possible?  Is there a way I can find out what program is causing this?  thanks
[06:37] <crimsun> variant: or very, very crappy depending if you have to maintain it.
[06:37] <variant> crimsun: hahah
[06:37] <linuxd> on the desktop i have insall
[06:37] <function1> well it seems i have not asound.conf, and i think thats a problem
[06:38] <Jordan_U> linuxd: Sure :)
[06:38] <crimsun> in any case, alsaconf is the wrong solution. The kernel should be fixed to enumerate PnP events.
[06:38] <crimsun> function1: no, asoundrc is not your issue.
[06:38] <genericuser> there's a package that was included in an earlier version of ubuntu and I'm wondering how to update it.
[06:38] <genericuser> It's Lilypond version 2.6

[06:38] <Trixsey> You guys know of any cool latex editors?
[06:38] <genericuser> They're now up to 2.10 and i would really like to update.
[06:39] <specialbuddy> variant, mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda7, missing codepage or other error
[06:39] <function1> no just one
[06:39] <variant> specialbuddy: did you make vfat to auto?
[06:39] <specialbuddy> yeah
[06:39] <variant> specialbuddy: you dont need the hotplug option
[06:39] <globe> anybody in here use beryl?
[06:40] <function1> crimsun: sorry i dont mean to push my problem on you, the alsaconf question i thought anyone could answer
[06:40] <variant> specialbuddy: or nodev
[06:40] <specialbuddy> ok
[06:40] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, so the PS/2 controller is shot on the mobo or what?
[06:40] <linuxd> on the server i have riad one when i cam to instaling give me two hard diks why
[06:40] <DanaG> That is a possibility.
[06:40] <AWOSLappy> :-(

[06:40] <ubotu> linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as kernel. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
[06:40] <crimsun> function1: no fault of yours.
[06:40] <DanaG> Or a BartPE disk.
[06:40] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, evil!
[06:40] <jbinder> !join
[06:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about join - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:41] <AWOSLappy> bad DanaG!  don't say Windows!  don't SPEAK Windows near me
[06:41] <AWOSLappy> :)
[06:41] <Jordan_U> matroblend: Just download it anywhere, the Desktop is fine, then double click the file.
[06:41] <genericuser> "/join"
[06:41] <linuxd> i am in select a disk why i have 2 hard diks when i have hard ware riad  in this linux can some help me
[06:41] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, Windows thoroughly screwed over this laptop
[06:41] <bhudda> Can someone please help me in the process of downloading and installing the .m4a codec?! That is all I have thanks to iTunes...
[06:41] <matroblend> Oh ok thank you
[06:41] <DanaG> hmm
[06:41] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, I mean, if I move the laptop, it freezes in Windows.
[06:41] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, in Linux this doesn't happen
[06:42] <crimsun> bhudda: you need either/and gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse, libxine-extracodecs
[06:42] <digi_> Hey guys
[06:42] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, HP does know about this -- they said the CPU loses contact with the mobo for a split second -- Windows cannot handle this, but I guess something in the Linux kernel makes it able to handle it
[06:42] <DanaG> Try hal-device-manager
[06:42] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, and something else on this motherboard has a service bulletin on it (I'm a tech)
[06:43] <linuxd> can some one help
[06:43] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, so I would definitely believe that the PS/2 controller is shot
[06:43] <DanaG> aah, in 'hal-device-manager'
[06:43] <DanaG> look under 'platform device'
[06:43] <DanaG> (you may have to install the package hal-device-manager)
[06:43] <AWOSLappy> bash: hal-device-manager: command not found
[06:43] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, sudo or no sudo?
[06:44] <DanaG> When you install it, it shows up in the Gnome menus.  it's a Gnome program.
[06:44] <DanaG> You can alt-f1 to get the panel menu
[06:44] <DanaG> then use arrow keys.
[06:44] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, secretly, I have KDE installed.  I hate GNOME.
[06:44] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, just #kubuntu is always dead
[06:44] <AWOSLappy> so I come in here, I mean #kubuntu had no clue, he said just reinstall -- and I wasn't gonna do that
[06:45] <DanaG> hmm, I don't see any easy way to see where it is in the KDE menu.
[06:45] <AWOSLappy> I just typed it in the Konsole
[06:45] <DanaG> aah.
[06:45] <AWOSLappy> I am in the Device Manager
[06:45] <AWOSLappy> DANG this is a COOL app, I love hardware :)
[06:45] <DanaG> Look down a ways -- it shows up for me as Platform Device (i8042) / i8042 Aux Port
[06:46] <AWOSLappy> I only have one
[06:46] <AWOSLappy> Platform Device (i8042) \ i8042 Kbd Port \ AT Raw Set 2 keyboard
[06:46] <AWOSLappy> but I do have this:
[06:46] <frediie> is it possible to resize my root partition ?\
[06:46] <AWOSLappy> PnP Device (SYN1015)
[06:46] <AWOSLappy> frediie, Yes!  gparted
[06:46] <AWOSLappy> !gparted
[06:46] <ubotu> gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[06:46] <frediie> i tried gparted
[06:47] <AWOSLappy> DanaG: So my Touchpad is an unrecognised PnP device
[06:47] <frediie> it doesnt have option to resize ext3
[06:47] <frediie> ihas option to resize fat
[06:47] <AWOSLappy> what goon made gparted with ext3 resize support!?
[06:47] <frediie> oh no
[06:47] <frediie> i tried qtparted
[06:47] <specialbuddy> variant, my ext2 partition isn't showing up
[06:47] <specialbuddy> it won't mount
[06:47] <AWOSLappy> frediie, get the LiveCD
[06:47] <linuxd> i am installing ubuntu i have problem i am raid hardware 1 he ask me to select a disk way becouse i am riad one
[06:47] <AWOSLappy> frediie, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[06:47] <frediie> alright ill give it a go...thank
[06:48] <frediie> o
[06:48] <AWOSLappy> frediie no problem :)
[06:48] <DanaG> Well, the right panel on that device manager is pretty not useful.
[06:48] <DanaG> Do you see the touchpad or the mouse?
[06:48] <AWOSLappy> DanaG not true, it has advanced tab
[06:48] <globe> has anybody ever had beryl tell them that the screen is taken?
[06:48] <variant> frediie: you need a recent version of gparted (not in apt) ang you need to have all the right filesystem utils installed
[06:48] <DanaG> oh.... I gorgot that one.
[06:48] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, touchpad only, but I didn't have the mouse plugged in until after boot.
[06:48] <variant> specialbuddy: i thought it was vfat?
[06:48] <AWOSLappy> I've got:
[06:48] <specialbuddy> one of them is
[06:48] <linuxd> can some help here
[06:48] <DanaG> hmm.  Well, that means the PS/2 controller is fine.
[06:48] <frediie> thanks guys
[06:49] <variant> specialbuddy: ok, so one of them is now working?
[06:49] <DanaG> try to rmmod psmouse
[06:49] <DanaG> and then re-modprobe it
[06:49] <specialbuddy> yeah
[06:49] <AWOSLappy> DanaG -- bus: pnp     linux.driver: i8042 aux    parent: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer
[06:49] <AWOSLappy> DanaG okay I will
[06:49] <linuxd> i am installing ubuntu i have problem i am raid hardware 1 he ask me to select a disk way becouse i am riad one
[06:49] <variant> specialbuddy: what is the problem with the other one then?
[06:49] <specialbuddy> it won't mount
[06:49] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, now I restart X or what?
[06:49] <variant> specialbuddy: what is the error?
[06:50] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, no change in the contents of /dev/input though
[06:50] <DanaG> hmm.
[06:50] <DanaG> I wonder if dmesg says anything useful.
[06:50] <AWOSLappy> Dang, the mouse does not move the cursor on screen though
[06:50] <AWOSLappy> rather DanaG, the mouse does not move the cursor on screen though
[06:51] <AWOSLappy> DanaG: the last thing in dmesg is about my NIC
[06:51] <specialbuddy> well that mount thing only worked until I unplugged my harddrive and plugged it back in
[06:51] <variant> specialbuddy: you want it to mount automatically?
[06:51] <DanaG> Well, if there's no /dev/input/mouse*, then it seems like xorg is not to blame.
[06:51] <AWOSLappy> OKAY
[06:51] <specialbuddy> yeah
[06:51] <AWOSLappy> here is problem in dmesg:
[06:51] <variant> specialbuddy: then you need a udev rule
[06:51] <jmx> hey..how do I look at my memory n stuff
[06:51] <AWOSLappy> this will take a while to type out, is that okay?
[06:52] <specialbuddy> well I don't know anything about that
[06:52] <AWOSLappy> NO!!!!!
[06:52] <variant> specialbuddy: read through this: http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html it is very good howto and it explains exactly what you have to do
[06:52] <AWOSLappy> Come back DanaG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[06:52] <AWOSLappy> x_x
[06:52] <keithhhhh> hi Is Compiz an addon to XGL or is it another management system?
[06:52] <variant> keithhhhh: compiz is a window manager
[06:52] <specialbuddy> thanks for everything variant
[06:53] <variant> keithhhhh: you would be better iwth beryl and beryl-manager
[06:53] <AWOSLappy> !pastebin
[06:53] <ubotu> 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 (see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:53] <SilentDis> hello :)
[06:53] <variant> keithhhhh: beryl/compiz run ontop of xgl or aiglx
[06:53] <tyler_> hey all I got my dlink dwl 650 + to at least load the firmware according to dmesg but I can't see any wireless networks any ideas?
[06:53] <keithhhhh> variant: ah
[06:54] <keithhhhh> variant: so then what is the minimum requirements for AIGLX do you know?
[06:54] <keithhhhh> variant: I cant run XGL unfortunately
[06:54] <variant> keithhhhh: think of xgl/aiglx and compiz/beryl being analogous to xorg-x11 and fluxbox/windowmaker/metacity
[06:54] <keithhhhh> variant: I have an ATI 9000
[06:54] <murali> my protocol for connecting gaim with yahoo is blocked
[06:54] <SilentDis> quicky question:  are there any packages available to allow me to use the remote from my Creative Live Drive with Dapper?  i'd like to map some of the keys and such (specificially, a kill current app and a restart x command, if possible)
[06:54] <variant> keithhhhh: any relativly decent integrated graphics card
[06:54] <DanaG> er, Xorg crashed
[06:54] <jmx> how do I look at my memory n stuff anyone?
[06:54] <variant> keithhhhh: excellent, that will work very well
[06:54] <murali> can u pls tell me how to activate it
[06:54] <variant> keithhhhh: i run aiglx with a radeon 7000 igp
[06:55] <variant> keithhhhh: and it is very smooth
[06:55] <DanaG> last thing I saw was 'this will take a while to type out'
[06:55] <keithhhhh> variant: ok now just need to find aiglx documentation.... was it easy to install?
[06:55] <variant> keithhhhh: aiglx is better than xgl
[06:55] <linuxd> any one have riad 1 on his computer help please
[06:55] <keithhhhh> variant: cool thanks  ;)
[06:55] <variant> keithhhhh: yes very, are you using edgy?
[06:55] <keithhhhh> variant: no :( 6.06
[06:55] <DanaG> nvidia > aiglx > xgl
[06:55] <Jordan_U> jmx: System -> administration -> System monitor.
[06:55] <tyler_> Oh edgy why do  you mock me, my wireless card worked great in dapper, it was literally plug and play but edgy is driving me nuts
[06:56] <variant> keithhhhh: ok, you should have to upgrade to edgy iirc but then aiglx is installed and ready to go by default (its part of xorg-x11 in edgy) all you need to do is install beryl and beryl-manager
[06:56] <AWOSLappy> DanaG!
[06:56] <AWOSLappy> what happened DanaG?
[06:56] <DanaG> aah, xorg had crashed.
[06:57] <DanaG> I'm back.
[06:57] <AWOSLappy> DanaG ah
[06:57] <keithhhhh> variant: hmmm
[06:57] <linuxd> any one can help here or not
[06:57] <keithhhhh> variant: thanks alot Ill get back to you if things work out  hehe
[06:57] <linuxd> gut i need to know i have riad 1 hardware and in ubuntu i have 2 hard diks why
[06:58] <linuxd> i do riad 1
[06:58] <CarlFK> "unable to load libmysqlclient.so" -libmysqlclient14 is already the newest version.  why?
[06:58] <linuxd> it only one hardik supose not 2
[06:58] <variant> keithhhhh: np, gl
[06:58] <variant> im off. gnight all
[06:58] <variant> 6am here :)
[06:58] <SilentDis> linuxd:  if you don't get an answer right away, don't be deturred. people come and go constantly.  if 'the room' doesn't know right now, wait 10 min, and try asking again ;)
[06:59] <AWOSLappy> Goodnight variant.
[06:59] <linuxd> ok
[06:59] <Jordan_U> linuxd: It seems nobody has experience with RAID right now, but it is late ( in my time zone at least ) so you might try earlier tomorrow, or ubuntuforums, qunu.com can be helpfull sometimes also.
[06:59] <linuxd> ok thank you
[07:00] <tokeman> Howde! I have a question, I am trying to get libflashplayer.so to my firefox plug in folder how do I get "Permision" or log on as root to extract that to my plug ins folder?
[07:00] <SilentDis> out of curiosity...
[07:00] <DanaG> I think I should go to bed soon too.
[07:00] <SilentDis> !raid
[07:00] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[07:00] <Jewfro-Macabbi> tokeman, sudo
[07:00] <DanaG> well, kinda soon.
[07:00] <tokeman> ok sudo running now
[07:00] <AWOSLappy> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32266/
[07:00] <Jordan_U> SilentDis: Oh, Maybe I should have given your advice :)
[07:00] <AWOSLappy> ^ BAD error.
[07:00] <SilentDis> tokeman: installing the beta 9 player I take it?
[07:00] <tokeman> yes thats it
[07:01] <bhudda> How do you exit and/or quit a virtual console?
[07:01] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, there's a pastebin of a BAD error in dmesg.
[07:01] <AWOSLappy> bhudda, exit
[07:01] <bhudda> Tried that, just logs me out of the console, and keeps it up
[07:01] <DanaG> HMM, [er, caps]
yes the 9 beta
[07:01] <DanaG> crash stack trace.
[07:01] <AWOSLappy> bhudda, right, then File->Exit or the X button on the title bar.
[07:01] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, yep.
[07:02] <DanaG> Sometime I get "Soft lockup in CPU#0" on my system.
[07:02] <bhudda> OK will try that. Thanks!
[07:02] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, really?
[07:02] <digi_> hey guys, how do I connect to another server, like "irc.neowin.net"?
[07:02] <AWOSLappy> bhudda, np :)
[07:02] <SilentDis> tokeman:  you have 2 options - do you want the plugin available to all users on the system, or just you?
[07:02] <SilentDis> Jordan_U:  i totally space out ubotu a lot.  i shouldn't, he's rather helpful ;)
[07:02] <AWOSLappy> digi_, try /connect irc.neowin.net
[07:03] <jokoon> Firefox 2 just start and immediatly crashes, how can I revert all settings to default ?
 well i'm the only user soo all would work on my main account
[07:03] <AWOSLappy> GRR.
[07:03] <DanaG> firefox --safe-mode
[07:03] <jokoon> thanks
[07:03] <AWOSLappy> Are you guys EVER going to add Firefox 2 to the Dapper repos?
[07:03] <DanaG> ...Bhudda mode on
[07:03] <DanaG> .
[07:04] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, well is there a fix?  or shall I file a bug?
[07:04] <digi_> I tried to type /connect irc.neowin.net, but nothing happed
[07:04] <jokoon> DanaG doesnt work
[07:04] <AWOSLappy> It also causes my system to hang for about 5 minutes on bootup
[07:04] <DanaG> I don't know that one.
[07:04] <AWOSLappy> with '/sbin/modprobe': Premature exit    or something like that, not sure of exact wording
[07:04] <DanaG> hahfunny: http://www.hlcomic.com/index.php?date=2006-10-24
[07:05] <jokoon> owkey
[07:05] <jokoon> No more internet browser for me
[07:06] <AWOSLappy> DanaG haha
[07:06] <rawrness> Whats add/remove programs run off of?
[07:06] <AWOSLappy> rawrness, synaptic.
[07:07] <Flannel> rawrness: itself
[07:07] <rawrness> kk
[07:07] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, um, is that error somehow related to the touchpad problem?
[07:07] <rawrness> I am using kde but i liked synaptics add/remove better
[07:07] <Flannel> rawrness: but, the more complete GUI thing is synaptic
[07:07] <haxality> hey, I would like to remove esd from my 6.06 installation
[07:07] <Xpression> does anyone know how to implement data compression under squid ?
[07:07] <AWOSLappy> is there a #UbuntuLevel2 room or something?  hehe
[07:07] <luminousnerd> Hey folks
[07:08] <AWOSLappy> Hey luminousnerd.
[07:08] <AWOSLappy> haxality, sudo apt-get remove esd
[07:08] <DanaG> Well, your issue may go above #ubuntu
[07:08] <haxality> it says that I need to remove ubuntu-desktop, but I remember before I had no problems getting rid of it
[07:08] <luminousnerd> Is there a decent program that will record your screen & audio and produce a nicely compressed video file of some sort?
[07:08] <haxality> thank you
[07:08] <DanaG> so look at #linux
[07:08] <DanaG> or #kernel
[07:08] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, ah okay.
[07:08] <DanaG> Or ubuntu-developers
[07:08] <AWOSLappy> haxality, correct, removing ubuntu-desktop is no problem.
[07:08] <DanaG> or whatever it is.
[07:08] <haxality> ah, ok
[07:08] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, which one?  ubuntu-dev or ##linux?
[07:08] <haxality> what is ubuntu-desktop, anyways?
[07:08] <haxality> it sounded important
[07:08] <Akuma_> i was to set up a linux/window LAN .. what do i have to look into?
[07:08] <DanaG> I say, try them all.
[07:09] <Akuma_> *windows
[07:09] <Flannel> Akuma_: getting a router
[07:09] <jamin06> can i get help with "make"
[07:09] <Flannel> haxality: it's a meta package, depending on everything you need to have the full, complete "ubuntu" system
[07:09] <AWOSLappy> haxality, it is a metapackage with all the packages of a default ubuntu install.  e.g. apt-get install ubuntu-desktop will restore all the default programs.
[07:09] <Jordan_U> !ubuntu-desktop | haxality
[07:09] <ubotu> haxality: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[07:09] <Akuma_> Flannel: i have all that. i used to have a windows/winows lan, i just want to know how i can do the same with linix. there just isn't a simple wizard as in windows
[07:09] <Akuma_> *linux
[07:09] <AWOSLappy> Akuma_ You need two LAN cards if you want to share the Internet
[07:10] <Flannel> Akuma_: you mean sharing and stuff?  Since, technically, they're in a LAN right now.  If you want file sharing and stuff, see !samba
[07:10] <haxality> apparently esd isn't installed.. but some parts of it are
[07:10] <haxality> what gives?
[07:10] <haxality> I basically just want to get rid of the bloat and the system sounds
[07:11] <Akuma_> AWOSLappy: Flannel: sorry, you're right, i used the wrong term. i guess file sharing specifically is what i meant. i'll look into samba, thanks
[07:11] <Flannel> !samba | Akuma_
[07:11] <ubotu> Akuma_: samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[07:11] <AWOSLappy> Akuma_ ah okay.
[07:12] <luminousnerd> Hey, is there a decent app that will record your screen & audio and turn it into a video file of some sort?
[07:12] <rawrness> whats the command for the add/remote thingy off the menu for synaptic?
[07:13] <Linuturk> I've noticed I now have the option to rotate my screen in the System > Preferences > Screen Resolution menu!!! This is great!! now, I just need a way for it to automatically rotate when I swivel the screen down. OR, a command line option so I can create a panel launcher
[07:13] <v3rmap> Hi, I'm not able to access my Ubuntu shares from Windows (the enter password dialog keeps popping up). Any suggestions?
[07:13] <AWOSLappy> DanaG, FYI it is actually #ubuntu-devel
[07:13] <DanaG> Time to reboot to WIndows to use Microsoft FTM.
[07:13] <haxality> uhhh
[07:14] <haxality> am I going to lose any important gnome stuff if I uninstall ubuntu-desktop
[07:14] <AWOSLappy> haxality, NO.
[07:14] <Flannel> rawrness: what?
[07:14] <Akuma_> Flannel: thats what i needed, thanks
[07:14] <haxality> ok, thank you.
[07:14] <Flannel> haxality: no.  You'll lose nothing.
[07:14] <haxality> sorry, but synaptic makes it look super-important for some reason
[07:14] <haxality> I just wanted to make sure
[07:14] <v3rmap> Hi, I'm not able to access my Ubuntu shares from Windows (the enter password dialog keeps popping up). Any suggestions?
[07:15] <Flannel> !samba | v3rmap, it's explained in here
[07:15] <ubotu> v3rmap, it's explained in here: samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[07:15] <Flannel> believe the second link is where it's ended up
[07:16] <TheMoebius> if I want to resize my NTFS windows partition to make space for ubuntu is it safe to use the partitioner in the ubuntu installer?
[07:17] <haxality> ok.. it says it's removing stuff like gconf-editor..
[07:17] <Flannel> haxality: you must be removing something else then, not just ubuntu-desktop
[07:17] <v3rmap> Flannel: does that mean merely doing a right click in nautilus, choosing "Share Folder", selecting "SMB" is not going to do it?
[07:18] <haxality> ah its ok, can always reinstall it
 it is safe, but always back up important stuff anyway
[07:18] <Flannel> v3rmap: No idea.  I don't use samba, I just know the 'mounting sans password' thing is addressed
[07:19] <luminousnerd> !beryl

[07:20] <AWOSLappy> someone in #ubuntu-devel is trying to get me to fudge with my kernel by installing the Edgy kernel in Dapper.  will this work?
[07:20] <AWOSLappy> I mean, not upgrade anything else, just the kernel
[07:22] <morgue> hey i'm trying to format a floppy and i get error "Could not determine current floppy geometry."
[07:22] <morgue> using an external drive
[07:22] <rawrness> If i deleted the add and remove button off the menu whats the command for it so i can readd it
[07:24] <Gog123> hi
[07:26] <morgue> why do you think I'm getting the error Could not determine current floppy geometry.
[07:26] <TheMoebius> is there a program in gnome that I can use to visually explore what is taking all my hard drive space? I know there is a view in konquer that does it but I'm in gnome...
[07:27] <rawrness> I think its Klight or something
[07:27] <rawrness> It runs in gnome good i think.
[07:27] <rawrness> I am not sure what i was running at that time.
[07:27] <morgue> any suggestions for my problem?
[07:28] <nuts> 3is there a command for removing a package just like u install with apt-get install?
[07:28] <luminousnerd> Are there any "real" games for Ubuntu?
[07:28] <Q_Continuum> Remote Desktop - how can I change the port that it uses?
[07:28] <AWOSLappy> luminousnerd, like what?
[07:28] <AWOSLappy> nuts, apt-get remove :)
[07:28] <morgue> nuts: apt-get remove
[07:28] <nuts> haha
[07:28] <nuts> could have checked that
[07:28] <AWOSLappy> :)
[07:29] <luminousnerd> AWOSLappy: I'm not sure. Like First-Person-Shooters or maybe realtime strategys?  The closest I know is Wesnoth, the turn-based one
[07:29] <morgue> the floppy is working :(
[07:29] <TheMoebius> luminousnerd: UT 2004 works and Neverwinter nights work natively in linux and there are others, plus you can use wine to play many windows games in linux
[07:29] <luminousnerd> I guess I mean 3d, and playable against other real people or something
[07:29] <TheMoebius> luminousnerd: there are whole websites dedicated to this subject
[07:29] <luminousnerd> Ut2k4 is linux-compatible?
[07:29] <morgue> yep
[07:29] <luminousnerd> Will it be a pain in the ass to install?>
[07:30] <morgue> nope
[07:30] <luminousnerd> Cool
[07:30] <morgue> the demo is pretty much point and click
[07:30] <luminousnerd> Oh, Doom does too doesn't it
[07:30] <AWOSLappy> luminousnerd, also I believe that Quake thing is in the repos somewhere
[07:30] <morgue> should
[07:30] <morgue> quake 3 is harder
[07:30] <luminousnerd> Any free or free trial good ones?  In the mood for a game right now lol
[07:30] <morgue> ut2k4
[07:30] <morgue> demo
[07:31] <morgue> easiest imho
[07:31] <luminousnerd> sweet
[07:31] <luminousnerd> Didn't know they had a demo
[07:31] <luminousnerd> that frickin rocks
[07:31] <morgue> yeah it has ons, assault, ctf and dm
[07:31] <luminousnerd> On the official site or just google for a trial?
[07:31] <TheMoebius> quake 4 is quite easy as well
[07:31] <Jordan_U_> How do I make the the volume keys change the PCM level instead of the master level ( Or rather, how can I make it so the master volume effects applications using OSS )?
[07:31] <morgue> either
[07:32] <luminousnerd> If I go out and buy UT2k4 do I need to look for a linux version or is it just part of it?
[07:32] <morgue> Does anybody know why am I get this error when I'm trying format a floppy drive? Could not determine current floppy geometry.
[07:32] <luminousnerd> Thanks for the help and suggestions guys
[07:32] <morgue> luminousnerd: you'd be getting a linux version
 what kind of drive is it ?
[07:32] <luminousnerd> ah, ok
[07:32] <morgue> zroberous: external
 zip ?
[07:33] <luminousnerd> Well, like, Warcraft comes with both Mac and Windows on the same disk
[07:33] <luminousnerd> I wonder if that one can be wine'd (time for a google :)
[07:33] <morgue> zroberous: 3 1/4
[07:33] <Jordan_U_> luminousnerd, xmoto is an awesome game IMHO, its in the repos too ( I am not a gamer though , and it is 2D so you may not like it as much )
 have you tried another disk ?
[07:34] <morgue> zroberous: it reads other another floppy disk i have
[07:34] <luminousnerd> Ok I'll give that one a shot Jordan_U_
 sounds like you have a bad disk then
[07:35] <Jordan_U_> luminousnerd, I just figured it out actually :)
[07:35] <_3uG_> does anyone have any idea how to get a gameport sidewinder to work in edgy? it worked *just fine* in dapper...
[07:35] <luminousnerd> Globulation 2 sounds interesting
[07:35] <Jordan_U_> luminousnerd, About 2 seconds before your post even :) thanks anyways though.
[07:35] <luminousnerd> Jordan_U_: figured what out?
[07:36] <morgue> zroberous: I can't format the same floppy disk I can read
[07:36] <Fastly> hello god?
[07:36] <Jordan_U_> luminousnerd, I thought you were talking about helping me with my sound issues, I forgot about the game conversation.
[07:37] <Jordan_U_> And I need sleep.
[07:37] <morgue> zroberous: I can read them but when I try formatting I get Could not determine current floppy geometry.t
[07:37] <luminousnerd> Oh I see lol
 is the read only tab slid on the floppy ?
[07:37] <matahari> hi
[07:38] <hokatichenci> Hmm, this ubuntu install I'm working on is asking for a cdrom when I do apt-get install samba, how do I disable the cdrom install feature?
[07:38] <Fastly> should i tell my bird that we just screwed to crystal clear drm-free linux audio... or will she just think i am weird?
[07:38] <morgue> zroberous: no
[07:38] <matahari> is there a software for a teleconference server? I mean a software that runs on a server and people connect to it via ekiga or so, and hear all the othersd that are connected too.... the server just mixes up sound and distributes it.
[07:39] <zroberous> she will think your weird
[07:39] <_3uG_> matahari, i think that gstreamer0.10-farsight may handle that *maybe*
[07:39] <rawrness> Is he not weird?
[07:39] <zroberous> nah
[07:39] <matahari> _3uG_: wher can i look that up?
[07:40] <Fastly> yeah thought so... i'll save it until after breakfast
[07:40] <AWOSLappy> crimsun, see me?
[07:40] <matahari> _3uG_: i would need support for 10 connections
[07:40] <crimsun> AWOSLappy: yes
[07:40] <_3uG_> http://farsight.sourceforge.net/
[07:40] <morgue> zroberous: what do you think?
[07:40] <matahari> (i have a server that has enough up/downlink)
[07:40] <AWOSLappy> You are running a kernel (version 2.6.15-23-386) and attempting to remove the same version.  This is a potentially dangerous action.  Not only will /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386 be removed, making it impossible to boot it, (you will have to take action to change your boot loader to boot a new kernel), it will also remove all modules under the directory /lib/modules/2.6.15-23-386.  Just having a copy of the kernel image is not enough, you will have t
[07:40] <AWOSLappy> is is very dangerous.  If at all in doubt, answer no.  If you know exactly what you are doing, and are prepared to hose your system, then answer Yes.
[07:40] <morgue> zroberous: i'm running on live cd :dunno:
[07:40] <matahari> _3uG_: thanks a lot!
[07:40] <AWOSLappy> Remove the running kernel image (not recommended) [No] ?
[07:41] <Fastly> <shameless plug>
 my first thought is something is wrong with your drive, not a software problem
[07:41] <crimsun> AWOSLappy: answer Yes [that's why you have your live cd]
[07:41] <AWOSLappy> okay.
[07:41] <_3uG_> matahari, not sure how much that link will help, though.. but it's a step in the right direction
 well thats why then, didnt know that
[07:41] <morgue> zroberous: it's brand new AND i formatted one of the diskettes from windows
[07:41] <luminousnerd> Where is xorg.conf
[07:41] <morgue> zroberous: :(
[07:41] <matahari> _3uG_: how do you mean?
[07:41] <Fastly> look here ----------->>>>>>>>>>> /etc
[07:41] <morgue> zroberous: so can it be done or do i have to install ubuntu?
 i don't believe you can do certain things in live
[07:42] <matahari> _3uG_: i think a 20Mbit connection should be enough
[07:42] <_3uG_> matahari, i don't know how much the link will help. hopefully it will tell you what you need to know
what are you trying to put on floppy ?
[07:42] <_3uG_> matahari, oh.. link==url
[07:42] <matahari> _3uG_: oh
[07:42] <morgue> zroberous: sata drivers so i can run winxp setup
[07:42] <matahari> _3uG_: now i understand what ya mean
[07:43] <capt-silver> i have been recording irc logs for a few months now. ubuntu has twice as much traffic talk as any other linux distro i am subscribed too..gentoo has half of ubuntu.
[07:43] <Fastly> everybody promise me one thing that you will listen to 'muse' --- 'knights of cydonia' ------ and dare not to enjoy this /////
[07:44] <digiqq> what's the command to extract a tar.bz2 file?
[07:44] <Fastly> -zxvf
[07:44] <_3uG_> tar -xjvf file.tar.bz2
 thats a tough one, im trying to think of another way to do that
[07:44] <digiqq> thx, i think it's xjvf
[07:44] <_3uG_> the j pipes it through bzip2

[07:49] <ScreaminIke> my glx is refusing to run any app (read: "games") fullscreen. errors include "Couldn't find matching GLX visual"
[07:49] <Jordan_U_> Fastly, Either I need more sleep or you do, or both, because I just don't get you right now.
[07:49] <Fastly> alien technology - it came from roswell.... don't tell anybody
[07:49] <Jordan_U_> !alien
[07:49] <ubotu> 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).
[07:49] <Jordan_U_> :)
[07:50] <AWOSLappy> crimsun, gonna reboot to get it working now
[07:50] <leikao> Hello all
[07:50] <Fastly> bonjourno
[07:50] <leikao> the OSD on my ThinkPad doesn't work fine
[07:50] <luminousnerd> Hmmm Jordan_U_ why is it so dangerous
[07:51] <luminousnerd> lol
[07:51] <jjbenham> I am considering giving ubuntu a try. I have an amd64 but am not sure if I really want the amd64 image or not.
[07:51] <ScreaminIke> i know. i never answer hard-core video questions either. it's the toughest thing to support. but i could really use some help, here, guys.
[07:51] <rawrness> I am thinkig about trying debian :P
[07:52] <Sobko> _usr_lib_firefox_firefox-bin.1000.crash
[07:52] <Sobko> how to delete it
[07:52] <luminousnerd> rawrness: DONT DO IT!!! SAVE YOURSELF!!!
[07:52] <rawrness> XD
[07:52] <rawrness> Is it that bad?
[07:52] <luminousnerd> Yesa.
[07:52] <luminousnerd> *yes.
[07:52] <jjbenham> rawrness: I have debian on my file server.
[07:52] <luminousnerd> I hated it :(
[07:52] <Sobko> 13.3 MB (13963837 bytes)
[07:53] <Sobko> hey how to delete crash file
[07:53] <luminousnerd> But I hated Ubuntu when i tried it in like version 4, too, so I guess I'll cut some slack to the fact that Debian may have gotten better.
[07:53] <Fastly> don't worry guys... i have invented a new trial program called registry magician.
[07:53] <rawrness> Perhaps scream if you reinstall the vid dirvers?
[07:53] <haxality> hi, is there any way to get xmms to use the gstreamer libraries
[07:53] <phlasphy> hey all
[07:54] <luminousnerd> Gtg peace out all
[07:54] <Fastly> anybody up for a copy of Registry Magician?
[07:54] <Fastly> i've got some seriously hardcore WWWWAARREEZZ D/l
[07:55] <morgue> does anybody know how can i format a 3 1/5 drive running from a live cd?
[07:55] <Fastly> registry magician will rule
[07:55] <Sobko> help
[07:55] <Sobko> ^-_-^
[07:55] <Fastly> simple... but, maybe effective
[07:55] <Fastly> have you tried registry magician?
[07:57] <Fastly> alternatively you could just sleep on it and hope windows update solves everything
[07:57] <Flannel> Fastly: please go elsewhere, to an appropriate channel

[08:01] <phlasphy> i am switching from xubuntu to ubuntu

[08:04] <AWOSLappy> My Broadcom 4318 Air Force One 43g Wireless Local Area Network card does not work in Ubuntu Dapper 6.06.1 LTS kernel 2.6.13-27-386
[08:04] <Fastly> AWOSLappy: sleep on it
[08:04] <AWOSLappy> Fastly, I have.
[08:04] <AWOSLappy> for three months.
[08:04] <cge>  AWOSLappy, doesn't dapper use 2.6.15?
[08:04] <AWOSLappy> time to get back on it!
[08:05] <dailiang> Hi , everybody
[08:05] <dn4> hmm
[08:05] <AWOSLappy> cge AH CRAP
[08:05] <AWOSLappy> My Broadcom 4318 Air Force One 43g Wireless Local Area Network card does not work in Ubuntu Dapper 6.06.1 LTS kernel 2.6.15-27-386
[08:05] <dn4> AWOSLappy you said that already
[08:05] <Fastly> what's the real problem, AWOSLappy. Be specific,
[08:05] <AWOSLappy> dn4, no, I fixed the kernel version
[08:05] <flodine> 1/part
[08:05] <AWOSLappy> it isn't making the thing, I can never remember the name
[08:05] <AWOSLappy> eth1
[08:05] <AWOSLappy> it is always eth1.
[08:06] <AWOSLappy> and it isn't making it anymore
[08:06] <nevermind> hello, anyone here?
[08:06] <AWOSLappy> Nevermind, obviously.
[08:06] <rawrness> A few people
[08:06] <nevermind> lol :)
[08:06] <Fastly> i put a pizza in the oven and it didn't make the thing... pls come fix it
[08:06] <nevermind> i wonder if anyone knows how to blacklist agpgart
[08:06] <rawrness> Did you turn it on?
[08:06] <cge>  AWOSLappy, so ifconfig isn't showing any devices other than lo and a wired connection if you have one?
[08:06] <AWOSLappy> cge, correct.
[08:06] <AWOSLappy> cge, it shows eth0 and lo.
[08:07] <dn4> AWOSLappy I tend to use this site as a reference for Wifi cards to buy http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility
[08:07] <AWOSLappy> dn4 YES I know that bc43xx cards suck.  but I am stuck with it, I payed $50 for it, they won't take it back, so I am stuck with it.
[08:07] <cge>  Hmmm... I need to use a better IRC client than telnet. Let me quit and log in with xchat. Using PRIVMSG is annoying.
[08:07] <Fastly> actually i feel like a spot of general knowledge:
[08:07] <AWOSLappy> cge okay.
[08:08] <AWOSLappy> Fastly, I just don't remember what they call those ethx things.  that's all.
[08:08] <AWOSLappy> like block devices, but not
[08:08] <rawrness> hyrdairc is good for windows and konversation is good for ubuntu.
[08:08] <AWOSLappy> Konversation, yeah, that's what I use rawrness.
[08:08] <AWOSLappy> INTERFACES!
[08:08] <AWOSLappy> that's it!  it won't create the interface.
[08:08] <nevermind> i've edited /etc/modprobe..d/blacklist and jsut added 'agpgart' but it doesn't wokr, am i missing something?
[08:08] <cge> AWOSLappy: Ok. But I am assuming that it was doing so before you installed Dapper?
[08:09] <AWOSLappy> cge, hmm?  it *did* work in Windows, but now it doesn't.
[08:09] <cge> AWOSLappy: Oh
[08:09] <AWOSLappy> cge, I mean, Windows freezes if I move the laptop (literally), the WLAN quit, the Ethernet quit, the USB floppy is intermittant
[08:09] <AWOSLappy> Windows is falling apart.
[08:10] <AWOSLappy> so I did the shipit thing and the SECOND I got the LiveCD I popped it in and installed it.
[08:10] <Fastly> AWOSLappy: you're barking up the wrong tree
[08:10] <cge> AWOSLappy: Sounds like it is time for you to redo your Windows installation...
[08:10] <cge> AWOSLappy: If you still have it on.
[08:10] <AWOSLappy> cge, why?  I don't like Windows anyway.  I like Linux.
[08:10] <cge> AWOSLappy: Sorry, I thought you were dual booting.
[08:10] <Fastly> apparently vista RTFM is available as a torrent
[08:10] <AWOSLappy> cge, well Windows is still there
[08:10] <AWOSLappy> Fastly, it's RTM :P
[08:11] <deesine> quick question, what is the cause of this warning and how do i fix it? WARNING: [somedir] /Makefile.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
[08:11] <AWOSLappy> Fastly, but ROFL at that typo
[08:11] <Sobko> Ubuntu 6.10 stable or not
[08:11] <Black> why the services are currently down ?
[08:11] <AWOSLappy> Sobko, no
[08:11] <Fastly> YT... OLO
[08:11] <Sobko> oo
[08:11] <AWOSLappy> Fastly, huh?
[08:11] <cge> Sobko: It is stable if it supports your hardware, and isn't if it doesn't.
[08:11] <Sobko> why not stable
[08:11] <Fastly> TY...   BADly.
[08:12] <nevermind> AWOSLappy: ndiswrapper issue?
[08:12] <cge> AWOSLappy: Well, when you said it used to work in Windows but didn't now, I initially thought that it might have died.
[08:12] <AWOSLappy> nevermind, cge, I don't use NDISwrapper.  and yes, but Linksys doesn't believe me that it died.
[08:12] <AWOSLappy> cge, yes I believe it died too.  it just stopped working all of a sudden.
[08:13] <cge> AWOSLappy: So it used to work in Ubuntu?
[08:13] <AWOSLappy> cge, but Linksys REFUSES to take it back and replace it, they say it is a mobo problem
[08:13] <Fastly> AWOSLappy: have you tried registry magician? i've just released it on trialware... you've got 24 hours... 23:59:59.... 23:59:58..... 23:59:58... the clock is ticking
[08:13] <AWOSLappy> cge, to a point, in NDISwrapper, it would find the AP but not connect to it
[08:13] <Fastly> shit
