[04:47] <DENYeitan0o9> it asked for a password
[04:47] <Sarge125> I guess Im just unlucky or something. right now this is my first linux and its leaving a bad impression
[04:47] <rukuartic> DENYeitan0o9: Type in your password.
[04:48] <finn> so who is going to win the race. aiglx  or xgl ?
[04:48] <DENYeitan0o9> i did
[04:48] <anto> i got a problem when compiling my server, it says that it cannot find a file (lua.h)  witch is located in /usr/include/lib5.1/lua.h  how do i make it link to the configure file :S?
[04:48] <Seveas> finn, aiglx is included in xorg
[04:48] <hastesaver> knapp, go to File->New Project->New Video DVD Project. But I think you have to do stuff manually; you might want to try qdvdauthor or something
[04:48] <rukuartic> Sarge125: Really, your question is slightly obscure. What program are you running, and what else does it print out in the terminal?
[04:48] <Seveas> xgl is an evil buggy hack on top of it
[04:48] <Seveas> you do the math
[04:48] <jbroome> man, the good thing about ignoring quits and joins in here, is i don't see it when someone dc c floods. :P
[04:48] <rukuartic> DENYeitan0o9: And it failed?
[04:48] <DENYeitan0o9> the prompt is<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[04:48] <DENYeitan0o9> now when i type sudo -i it does nothing
[04:48] <finn> is aiglx already in the version of xorg which edgy uses?
[04:48] <DENYeitan0o9> no the pass worked
[04:48] <Seveas> finn, yes
[04:48] <reiki> question regarding grub. Specifically the root (hd0,0) part. I have 3 drives, 1 IDE and 2 SATA. How do I know how GRUB is seeing them so I can set the root properly in grub?
[04:49] <rukuartic> DENYeitan0o9: Ok so you're logged in as root now?
[04:49] <finn> so all I need is the nvidia drivers and a WM which supports the eyecandy stuff?
[04:49] <Seveas> reiki, look in /boot/grub/device.map
[04:49] <DENYeitan0o9> how can you tell?
[04:49] <opteek> i have a clean install of dapper and when I open some apps, such as Desktop Background, the buttons are filled in black until I move my mouse over them, at which point they become normal, while in other apps, such as System -> Keyboard, the buttons are fine from the start, anyone experienced this before?
[04:49] <Seveas> finn, indeed
[04:49] <DENYeitan0o9> the prompt is still my user name
[04:49] <reiki> Seveas, thank you once again
[04:49] <DENYeitan0o9> its not root@
[04:49] <finn> sounds good =)
[04:49] <jair> ls
[04:49] <jair> sorry
[04:50] <rukuartic> DENYeitan0o9: You might have messed up /etc/sudoers... were you editing that file at all?
[04:50] <Viaken> So what WMs support the eyecandy? Other than compiz/beryl?
[04:50] <Seveas> Viaken, none
[04:50] <DENYeitan0o9> no i didnt
[04:50] <Sarge125> what you mean by terminal, ok I download Steam linux dedicated server install exec.bin file. I double click it to exec it, I get a Couldn't Display "file location" error
[04:50] <DENYeitan0o9> i edited etc/passwd before
[04:50] <DENYeitan0o9> so that i could login
[04:50] <Viaken> Seveas: Ah...
[04:50] <rukuartic> Sarge125: Oh, are you on a 64 bit server?
[04:50] <reiki> Seveas, /boot/grub/device.map apparently only sees one sata drive. I can access all drives by mounting them... another idea?
[04:50] <Sarge125> no
[04:51] <rukuartic> Sarge125: Did you chmod the file +x?
[04:51] <Seveas> reiki, no other idea then to try it, keep a livecd nearby ;)
[04:51] <Sarge125> i have no clue what that means, this is my very first time with linux ive used windows my whole life
[04:51] <Seveas> reiki, in your bios it should say which device to boot first from
[04:51] <rukuartic> Sarge125: Do this.  XD

[04:53] <pike_> Sarge125: i dont use gnome but if you right click on it you should be able to go to properties or something youll notice some boxes that can be checked one should be x for executable. another way is to open a terminal and cd /home/username/Desktop the chmod +x filename.bin then ./filename.bin to run
[04:53] <felixjet> anyone know how can i create a menu for nautilus? i mean, when i right click a jpg image, i want a menu that "convers to bmp" and when click it, a script is load in that image.

[05:06] <borg> cause i have this theme i just downloaded from gnome-look and every other window except the synaptic package manager and the update package manager doesnt use it
[05:06] <nolimitsoya> if i have a series of commands saved in a textfile, separated by '&&'s, and would like to execute those without having to open the file, write them down and type them, how would i do that?
[05:06] <Ricardo_Ram> There is a big problem in Ubuntu with the USB Flash Drives.
[05:06] <IdleOne> philipsmith, in terminal type sudo aptitude install keytouch-editor
[05:06] <Ricardo_Ram>
[05:06] <Ricardo_Ram> When the user deletes files in an USB Flash Drive, Ubuntu creates a "Trash Bin" (called " .Trash1000) that uses a lot of space.
[05:06] <Ricardo_Ram>
[05:06] <Ricardo_Ram> This "Trash Bin" is invisible in Linux, but in can be viewed in Microsoft Windows. An screenshot of this "Trash Bin" is available here. If an user deletes a file in an USB Pen Drive should be deleted definitively.

[05:07] <PasiC> hi folks
[05:07] <rukuartic> Seveas: Was he really being a problem though, or just a nub?
[05:07] <Seveas> jbroome, steel is harder
[05:07] <pike_> nolimitsoya: you mean turn the text file into a script?
[05:07] <borg> cause i have this theme i just downloaded from gnome-look and every other window except the synaptic package manager and the update package manager doesnt use it
[05:07] <Seveas> rukuartic, flooding == problem
[05:07] <nolimitsoya> pike_, yes :)
[05:07] <gar-> how do i know that sendmail is working????
[05:07] <PasiC> is a Hungarian guy there?
[05:07] <jbroome> gar-: umm, you can send mail?
[05:08] <hastesaver> chrissturm, you might also want to look at dar
[05:08] <jpjacobs> gar-, dunno, send a mail? or read the manual?
[05:08] <gar-> jbroome trying from the website and i dont recieved any email
[05:08] <gar-> and my php.ini is configure properly
[05:08] <philipsmith> IdleOne: Thanks. That seemed to install something. However, when I entered "keytouch" and "keytouch-editor" on the command line, nothing happens. Should I expect a gui?
[05:08] <pike_> nolimitsoya: the first line will be the path to your shell of choice like: #!/bin/bash  then then next lines as long as they work in the terminal should be fine. then chmod +x textfilename and you should be able to execute it
[05:08] <jbroome> troubleshooting sendmail may be too much for this channel
[05:09] <jbroome> but the first step is sudo apt-get install postfix
[05:09] <plagerism> Is there a method to install to an extra harddrive without rebooting??  I could go the vmware method, however I am not sure how this will affect performance.  Is there any other suggestions??
[05:09] <nolimitsoya> pike_, thank you :)
[05:09] <gar-> jbroome i have postfix allready :)
[05:10] <opteek> plagerism, use kqemu instead of vmware
[05:10] <PasiC> could someone tell me is a localization package for quanta plus? i'd like it to "speak" Hungarian :P but it isn't an cannot find package ...
[05:11] <plagerism> opteek, kqemu will allow me to install a bootable installation of ubuntu?? Or is it just the free alternative of vmware?

[05:12] <jamesbrose> How can i setup a quick proxy for irc use?
[05:12] <hastesaver> plagerism, huh? Installing packages shouldn't require rebooting... or do you mean installing Ubuntu?
[05:12] <jbroome> plagerism: w/o hotswap drives you can't install a dirve w/o rebooting
[05:12] <jpjacobs> plagerism, don't think it's possible, since loading another kernel requires you to reboot
[05:13] <plagerism> hastesaver, I mean installing UBuntu on a clean drive
[05:13] <plagerism> the drive is already installed
[05:13] <plagerism> but I dont want to reboot to install to it
[05:13] <KenSentMe> Ubuntu reacts when i insert a SD card into the card reader of my lapop, but memory stick isn't recognised. For what package should i file a bug to get it solved?

[05:23] <maddash> I just installed breezy server. I want to add on an xfce package. sudo apt-get install xfce doesn't work. what repository am I missing?
[05:23] <n3tdo> finn: ok I am downloading the package ... but after how can I enable the applet?
[05:23] <pumpkinhead> no i mean a personal mp3 player, an external one, that you download music onto and take with you
[05:23] <opteek> maddash, use apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[05:23] <stefg> maddash: there is no xubuntu 5.10, AFAIK... any reason not to use dapper?
[05:24] <maddash> stefg, opteek: I want to install xfce, not xubuntu...
[05:24] <hastesaver> does Audacity work for anyone here?
[05:24] <maddash> opteek: xubuntu-desktop is far different from simple ubuntu + xfce....ie, more stuff
[05:24] <opteek> maddash, have you tried apt-cache search xfce
[05:25] <borg> i have two sound cards (an nvidia CK8S AC97 and a sound blaster) i told ubuntu that my primary sound device will be the sound blaster, but flash movies in firefox output to my nvidia AC97 and not my sound blaster is there anyway to change that?
[05:25] <stefg> maddash: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75971
[05:25] <maddash> opteek: I issued "sudo apt-get update" followed by "sudo aptitude"

[05:25] <claudio> does anyone know where to find the php5-dbase extension for edgy?

[05:26] <opteek> maddash, the forum link stefg posted will help you
[05:26] <reiki> pike_,  grub sees them all as hdx,0

[05:28] <boabsta> does anyone know how to enable css support in k3b under ubuntu?

[05:29] <opteek> i have a clean install of dapper and when I open some apps, such as Desktop Background, the buttons are filled in black until I move my mouse over them, at which point they become normal, while in other apps, such as System -> Keyboard, the buttons are fine from the start, anyone experienced this before?
[05:30] <hastesaver> boabsta, you have libdvdcss installed?

[05:30] <blas> hi
[05:30] <jpjacobs> Riyonuk, it's in apt (the multiverse repo i think)
[05:30] <stefg> opteek: nvidia-card with 'option render-accel' 'true' in xorg.conf?
[05:30] <blas> ubuntu uses apt for package managment?
[05:30] <blas> i mean debian's apt
[05:30] <afief> hastesaver: been there read the wiki, all references to w32codecs have been removed
[05:31] <boabsta> hastesaver, nope - any ideas on how to install that please? I get this:
[05:31] <Seveas> blas, it does
[05:31] <boabsta> Package libdvdcss is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[05:31] <boabsta> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted
[05:31] <Seveas> !libdvdcss | boabsta
[05:31] <ubotu> boabsta: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:31] <blas> Seveas: ah thanks
[05:31] <Riyonuk> jpjacobs, thanks, Ill look
[05:31] <blas> Seveas: then i think ill install ubuntu, something similar to debian :)
[05:31] <hastesaver> afief, you can get it from the Seveas repo. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:32] <opteek> stefg, I have a Radeon 9200 PRO, no nvidia entries in xorg.conf
[05:32] <Riyonuk> I see rar but no rar-free
[05:32] <boabsta> thanks guys - i'll check it out
[05:32] <maddash> opteek: is there a reason why i should install xubuntu-desk over xfce?
[05:33] <rukuartic> maddash: xfce is xubuntu-desktop. -desktop just comes with a whole bunch of xfce programs to use.
[05:33] <Riyonuk> Oh..unrar
[05:33] <borg> i have two sound cards (an nvidia CK8S AC97 and a sound blaster) i told ubuntu that my primary sound device will be the sound blaster, but flash movies in firefox output to my nvidia AC97 and not my sound blaster is there anyway to change that? this is Flash 7 btw
[05:33] <Riyonuk> I found it, jpjacobs thanks!
[05:33] <opteek> maddash, it's prepackaged and preconfigured nicely
[05:33] <afief> hastesaver: Dapper version?
[05:33] <stefg> opteek: i had the same bug, and it came from this render-accel option set... maybe there's an analogue for ati?
[05:34] <nickspoon> borg: gksudo gedit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc
[05:34] <hastesaver> afief, if you're using Dapper, add the Dapper repo; if you're using Edgy add the edgy repo.
[05:34] <borg> thank you nickspoon
[05:34] <finn> when I select the packet "nvidia-glx" to be installed, it wants to remove a lot of other stuff I previously installed
[05:34] <maddash> opteek, rukuartic: thanks. I'm switching over to ubuntu now. see you on the other side.
[05:34] <finn> how can I avoid this?
[05:34] <nickspoon> borg: change FIREFOX_DSP="none" to FIREFOX_DSP="aoss"
[05:34] <afief> hastesaver: There is nothing about edgy on the page you sent me
[05:34] <Riyonuk> So..how do I use unrar-free?
[05:35] <TheManiacKY> Is there a console app I can run on my server to check the CPU tempature in Ubuntu server?
[05:35] <nickspoon> borg: save, then install the package alsa-oss.
[05:35] <opteek> stefg, I will try installing ATI drivers per dapper ubuntuguide and see if that helps
[05:35] <pos69sum> after i installed dapper - it seems my fonts in the terminal are all 'flickery'
[05:35] <borg> wait, nickspoon what do i put in the the firefoxrc ?
[05:36] <pike_> Riyonuk: unrar e filename.rar    there are alot of flags you can use but that is simple extract
[05:36] <pos69sum> i tried different screen resolutions, same deal
[05:36] <hastesaver> afief, oh, strange. The wiki page hasn't been updated, I guess. Just pick one of the mirrors, and replace dapper with edgy
[05:36] <borg> do i put the name of the /dev name of my sound blaster name in the Firefox_DSP parameter?
[05:36] <finn> can I somehow save the ones which are marked for removal?
[05:36] <finn> I want to keep them :(

[05:36] <fredxor> i'm trying to mount a windows partition in ubuntu live 5.1. i'm in the disks manager and it says that it's inaccessible. can you please help me?
[05:36] <Riyonuk> pike_, bash: unrar: command not found
[05:37] <nickspoon> borg: you say everything else plays through your soundblaster, so put FIREFOX_DSP="aoss"
[05:37] <stefg> fredxor: define 'win-partition...' ntfs or fat32?
[05:37] <jpjacobs> Riyonuk, tried it in a new console?
[05:37] <pike_> Riyonuk: sudo apt-get install unrar  or it might be unrar-nonfree
[05:37] <fredxor> stefg: ntfs
[05:37] <rukuartic> stefg: Probably ntfs.
[05:37] <pike_> Riyonuk: in dapper its just unrar
[05:37] <unimatrix9> hi there
[05:37] <nickspoon> borg: then sudo aptitude install alsa-oss
[05:37] <TheManiacKY> jpjacobs Thanks.. Great. 138.2F :( I though somthing like that was wrong
[05:37] <rukuartic> unimatrix9: Hey
[05:37] <finn> anybody?
[05:37] <stefg> fredxor: breezy doesn't support ntfs r/w ...
[05:37] <borg> nickspoon, ok, thanks, btw i use synaptic to install my packages

[05:39] <finn> following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia gives me the problem
[05:39] <unimatrix9> how do i mount to browse the content of an digital camera?
[05:39] <pike_> unimatrix9: what kind of camera?  on most you can just mount em like a usb drive
[05:39] <stefg> fredxor: yes, i run ntfs3g (fuse-ntfs) on dapper without problems... make sure you have ntfs compression disabled in win...
[05:39] <unimatrix9> its uhci_hcd
[05:39] <fredxor> stefg: thankyou very much
[05:40] <pike_> unimatrix9: ah
[05:40] <unimatrix9> is that browseble?

[05:43] <FlightOfStairs> how would I be able to do a very minimal install of ubuntu, for flash disks and stuff (is it even possible?)? the standard install from the cd requires 2Gb+

[05:45] <jpjacobs> TheManiacKY, or if it is an athlon processor, you could try athcool.
[05:45] <borg> nickspoon, so firefox was written in OSS?

[05:48] <stefg> FlightOfStairs: depends on what you want... X? gtk2? applications?  noooo, no way... just a console and and a ssh-client: might work...
[05:48] <boabsta> hastesaver - should k3b work with libdvdcss2 - i tried but it crashes. Or should i be using libdvdcss instead?
[05:49] <FlightOfStairs> ok
[05:49] <FlightOfStairs> lol
[05:49] <FlightOfStairs> ty

[05:54] <TooR4u> How to create virtualdisks ??
[05:54] <reiki> this is a little maddening :)  grub sees all 3 drives, but I don't know WHICH drive is which (mixed IDE and SATA). This Dapper boots fine and GRUB says root (hd0,0) for this drive. It's a sata drive. I guess I don't know if it's seeing sata first and THEN IDE or what...
[05:54] <TooR4u> !Virtualdisks
[05:54] <fredxor> pike_: it says that i must specify the filesystem type

[05:56] <TooR4u> jpjacobs, I am trying to install windowsxp through vmware.......
[05:56] <pike_> fredxor: syntax would be like mount -t ntfs -o and the rest
[05:56] <stefg> reiki: get at the grup prompt, and type 'find /boot/grub/stage1' ... you'll see the disk-number then, how grub see tehm
[05:56] <ChaosR> !remove

[05:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about remove - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:56] <linax> shouldnt really install windows after linux if its one disk

[06:03] <reverseblade> narvik86, tried sudo /etc/init.d/cups start ?
[06:04] <reverseblade> nolimitsoya, no but, you cannot setUID for bash scripts
[06:04] <stefg> reverseblade: no, if you don't know how to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst... since you decided to leave the stock-kernel anyways, it's your own responsibility to have your kernel updated

[06:06] <TooR4u> !qemu
[06:06] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[06:06] <reverseblade> stefg, ok but how can I remove that from being updated then ?
[06:07] <Airwulf> gedit needs about 3 minutes to start. Any idea what could happened?
[06:07] <reverseblade> Airwulf, try running gedit from console, and see what it spits out
[06:07] <stefg> reverseblade: if you have installed your custom-kernel with apt then simply apt-get remove remove linux-image-[arch]
[06:08] <gloup> Hi all
[06:08] <reverseblade> stefg, yeah thats true
[06:08] <reverseblade> stefg, but  I am afraiding if it removes some thing else
[06:09] <fredxor> how do i login to root on the 6.06 live cd
[06:09] <Shin_gouki> Hello i installed ubuntu 6.10 , on a USB Harddisk but when i reboot i get an GRUB Error 21, which indicated that the disk does not exist, now im back with the install/Live CD  but i dotn kown how too look up and reenter the xact Number within GRUB?
[06:09] <fredxor> what's the default pass?
[06:09] <Airwulf> reverseblade, I tried already. Nothing will be printed to the console.
[06:09] <stefg> reverseblade: if your custom-kernel is generated by kpkg then apt knows what to do... if you simplky threw it on your system, bypassing apt, then it might be dangerous
[06:10] <mohadib> hello

[06:11] <stefg> reverseblade: so just get rid of the whole stock-kernel-packages and restricted and headers and stuff... you'll never be bothered then again with ubuntu-kernel updates
[06:11] <trilingualkid> shin_gouki: ok. thank you. i will look them up.
[06:11] <gourdin> where do I remove the automatic "updatedb" on my ubuntu ?

[06:12] <stefg> reverseblade: no
[06:12] <pucko_> anyone know what's needed to make suspend/resume work on a edgy workstation?
[06:12] <jpjacobs> pucko_, enough swapspace to store your ram in for a starter.
[06:14] <sya> hey, what do i need to connect to an ssl'ed server?
 does anyone know if ubuntu supports input devices such as a keyboard or mouse?  i wish to be able to input data into my ubuntu based computer system.

[06:17] <finn> 	libglu1
[06:18] <Shin_gouki> i have a boot error with GRUB , some one here who can help me?
[06:18] <JDahl> I am trying to compile kernel <IP_ADDRESS> to support some new hardware, but I don't know which SATA driver to include to be able to boot.  lspci -v tells me "ATI Technologies Inc ATI 4379 Serial ATA Controller" - should I configure the kernel to "Generic ATA support"? There doesn't seem to be an explicit driver for ATI SATA
[06:18] <stefg> Shin_gouki: what error?
[06:19] <masterk> i need a program that reads chm files, does anyone know of one?
[06:19] <jpjacobs> chm files.
[06:19] <jpjacobs> ?
[06:19] <finn> what can I do about this problem
[06:19] <masterk> chm files yes
[06:20] <PrimeHex1Sleep> wtf
[06:20] <masterk> compiled html" files
[06:20] <stefg> win help-viewer with wine? :-)
[06:20] <PrimeHex1Sleep> oh well
[06:20] <PrimeHex1Sleep> I'm back
[06:20] <TheDebugger> xchm, gchm kchm
[06:20] <TheDebugger> You can actually search in synaptic
[06:20] <pucko-> jpjacobs, yeah I extended my swap-space to 1.2gb earlier (380mb ram). but do I need to install some packages are should it work directly in the kernel?
[06:21] <masterk> i searched xchm in synaptic with no results
[06:21] <jpjacobs> hmm apt-cache search suspend?
[06:21] <pr3d4t0r> Good morning.
[06:21] <pr3d4t0r> un_operateur: Bonjour.
[06:21] <pupcia> hallo
[06:22] <LameBMX> k im having kernal / initramfs issues with a fakeraid install .. any helpers
[06:22] <pucko-> jpjacobs, yes, but there seems to be a few alternatives there, but I'm not sure how they work. either hibernate or uswsusp (two completely different packages) and then I still need to know how they are called from the kde logout menu. right now the computer just locks up.
[06:23] <TheDebugger> masterk, you must add the appropriate repositories
[06:23] <Shin_gouki> i need some help with GRUB, somebody here who can help me?I installed Ubuntu 6.10 on a USB Hard disk and now on startup i get a GRUB . Error 21, ideas?
[06:23] <pr3d4t0r> Q. I'm running Kubuntu on a headless box.  I'd like to start vncserver on that system for a specific user, after setting her VNC password.  She's never logged on to it using a GUI.  vncserver doesn't seem to be installed.  Is there a HOWTO that you'd recommend so that I can RTFM and set her up?  Thanks in advance.
[06:23] <pucko-> jpjacobs, the thing is, should I need those packages to begin with? or are they just alternatives to kernelsupport for suspend to ram or something? (doesn't matter to me but I need to know how to use them)
[06:24] <jpjacobs> pucko-, i thought it was swsp..2
[06:25] <Riyonuk> How come when I leave my desktop and comeback, Im at the ubuntu login screen?
[06:25] <Riyonuk> How can I change it so it doesnt do that?
[06:25] <PrimeHex> Riyonuk: did you log out or lock the screen?
[06:25] <PrimeHex> either way, there's an application called screen, do you know how to use it?
[06:25] <pianoboy3333> What's a good alternative to mencoder? I need to string four VOB files together, and encode them into one AVI, and I have to start encoding like 10min into the first VOB, and stop 2min in the fourth/last VOB I've been having trouble doing this with mencoder, what could be an alternative program?
[06:25] <Riyonuk> no, I just left it, and came bacl
[06:25] <Riyonuk> *back
[06:25] <pr3d4t0r> Riyonuk: GUI desktop or CLI?
[06:25] <PrimeHex> no clue then
[06:26] <PrimeHex> I thought you had manually logged out and didn't want to lose your current stuff on irssi/whatever else
[06:26] <Riyonuk> pr3d4t0r, uhh its a GUI, its gnome
[06:26] <LameBMX> Riyonuk: system | screensaver .. and uncheck prompt for password
[06:26] <pucko-> jpjacobs, there's a suspend2-userui, but I don't know what that is either. and there seems to be some kind of stuff in acpi-support too. so I guess I have four packages to choose from
[06:26] <dv_> Riyonuk, maybe X crashed
[06:26] <dv_> if this happens, the login manager shows up again
[06:26] <stefg> Shin_gouki: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/grub/+bug/8978
[06:26] <pr3d4t0r> Riyonuk: I'm not sure about how to set this up in Gnome but all it's doing is locking the system out for safety.
[06:26] <LameBMX> yea that too
[06:26] <dv_> because X is restarted
[06:26] <pr3d4t0r> :(
[06:26] <maracana> iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[06:27] <POVaddct> Riyonuk: i guess after a while your X screensaver/screenlocker kicked in, making the X server crash
[06:27] <pr3d4t0r> LameBMX: Ah!  Thanks.
[06:27] <LameBMX> he is gone
[06:27] <pr3d4t0r> LameBMX: Yeah, saw that :)
[06:27] <LameBMX> yea ...
[06:27] <jpjacobs> pucko-, i think it's uswsusp
[06:27] <LameBMX> the fun one is to get the d*** screen to stop blanking out after 10 minutes
[06:28] <jpjacobs> LameBMX, there is a trick with xset (see man xset)

[06:30] <jpjacobs> np
[06:30] <pr3d4t0r> jpjacobs: Doesn't Ubuntu install vncserver for a systemwide logon, however?
[06:30] <stefg> no
[06:30] <pr3d4t0r> stefg: Ah, coolio.
[06:30] <josh_> masterk: edgy has CHM Viewer in the Accessories section of Add/Remove programs
[06:30] <pucko-> jpjacobs, oh well. I'll give it another try. thanks.

[06:30] <POVaddct> pr3d4t0r: didnt you say it is kubuntu?
[06:31] <stefg> pr3d4t0r: as the description said.... In component main, is optional
[06:31] <POVaddct> pr3d4t0r: then vino wont help you
[06:31] <Some_Person> i cant get online
[06:31] <ChaosR> it gives this error: /home/chaosr/.WineCVS/Functions/MainMenu: 91: Syntax error: Bad substitution
[06:31] <Some_Person> i tried pppoe and dhclient, both fail
[06:31] <POVaddct> Some_Person: still the pppoe problem?
[06:31] <Some_Person> yep
[06:31] <Some_Person> still
[06:31] <VincentMX> hi
[06:31] <Some_Person> i even reinstalled ubuntu
[06:32] <Riyonuk_> WTF, I went to screensaver and the screen went all blank with a blinking cursor, like the beginning of the movie, the matrix, and I pressed Escape key and it made a little symblol like [^]  or something like that
[06:32] <pr3d4t0r> POVaddct: I'll just set up a VNC server I'm familiar with.  Thanks :)
[06:32] <POVaddct> Some_Person: and i still dont know what to do. maybe windows set your dsl modem to a proprietary protocol (not pppoe)?
[06:32] <Some_Person> i dont know
[06:33] <Riyonuk_> pr3d4t0r, yup, thats what happened, what went wrong?
[06:33] <POVaddct> Some_Person: is the modem cross-connected to the computer or is there a hub between them?
[06:33] <kbrooks__> what is cross-connecting, POVaddct
[06:34] <POVaddct> kbrooks__: crossover ethernet cable
[06:34] <Some_Person> modem is connected straight to ethernet port
[06:34] <kbrooks__> uh, whats that?
[06:34] <PrimeHex> Anybody here familiar with a problem in edgy when flash manages to break the sound when you start playback then stop it?
[06:34] <PrimeHex> kbrooks__: instead of usinga  router, a special ethernet cable is used which switches some cables
[06:34] <PrimeHex> enabling the connection to work properly
[06:35] <Some_Person> nvidia (my ethernet card mfg) has drivers on their website, but they don't appear to support ubuntu/debian
[06:35] <kbrooks__> PrimeHex, "switches some cables"?
[06:35] <POVaddct> kbrooks__: there are two types of tp ethernet cables. "normal" ones, also called patch cable and "crossed" ones (some wires are not 1:1 connected)
[06:35] <PrimeHex> kbrooks__: on the inside, there's 3 colored pairs, it changes the order of them on one side
[06:35] <ChaosR> PrimeHex: my router requires a crossover cable to connect
[06:35] <stefg> Some_Person: nforce(2,3,4)-chipset ?
[06:35] <TooR4u> jpjacobs, thank uuuu
[06:35] <Some_Person> nforce, dont know the number
[06:35] <PrimeHex> Most don't, that's pretty odd
[06:36] <PrimeHex> Anybody here familiar with a problem in edgy when flash manages to break the sound when you start playback then stop it?
[06:36] <Seveas> PrimeHex, grab flash 9
[06:36] <Seveas> that solves most audio problems
[06:36] <PrimeHex> Seveas: I did, but my sound is still broke
[06:36] <PrimeHex> No sound at all works
[06:36] <toulouse> flash 9 doesnt work in linux right?
[06:36] <PrimeHex> Anywhere
[06:36] <toulouse> or is it out yet?
[06:36] <PrimeHex> toulouse: hey! sup?
[06:36] <Some_Person> should i try to install http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_nforce_1.11.html?
[06:36] <Seveas> PrimeHex, you sure you use flash 9 and not a flash 7 hidden somewhere?
[06:36] <POVaddct> Some_Person: nforce cards are crap. nvidia refuses to give programming info, so the driver had to be reverse engineered.
[06:37] <Seveas> !flash9 | toulouse
[06:37] <ubotu> toulouse: flash9 is available from dapper-backports and edgy-backports now, see !backports
[06:37] <toulouse> PrimeHex: im back , so your sound still dont work huh
[06:37] <PrimeHex> Seveas: yes, I just recently installed flash9, thi s is a fresh install.
[06:37] <PrimeHex> of edgy, that is
[06:37] <stefg> Some_Person: if you find 'forcedeth' in your lsmod-listing you should be fine. this is a rverse engineered driver for the nforce NIC, but works better than the nvidia ones
[06:37] <toulouse> well, i dont want it if it's gonna break my sound
[06:37] <pianoboy3333> What's a good alternative to mencoder? I need to string four VOB files together, and encode them into one AVI, and I have to start encoding like 10min into the first VOB, and stop 2min in the fourth/last VOB I've been having trouble doing this with mencoder, what could be an alternative program?
[06:37] <Seveas> PrimeHex, with a fresh homedir as well?
[06:37] <PrimeHex> toulouse: lol, it usually doesn't I just won an unlucky lottery
[06:37] <methy> is it anything close to uTorrent on linux?
[06:37] <PrimeHex> Seveas: indeed, completely fresh
[06:37] <toulouse> !backports
[06:37] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[06:37] <POVaddct> Some_Person: sad but true, some hardware manufacturers do a really bad job in terms of supporting the linux community.
[06:38] <PrimeHex> methy: rtorrent is not as pretty, but it works way better
[06:38] <Some_Person> like my isp
[06:38] <Seveas> PrimeHex, lsof /dev/dsp
[06:38] <methy> PrimeHex: cool, thanks;>
[06:38] <PrimeHex> Seveas: what is that supposed to do? because it did nothing... xD
[06:38] <Some_Person> they say "linux is unsupported, at&t yahoo dsl only supports windows and macintosh"
[06:38] <POVaddct> Some_Person: is that a closed source driver from the nvidia page?
[06:38] <narvik86> how can i change "pritable area"?, i mean footer of the page is not printed, with for example pdf files
[06:38] <Some_Person> probably

[06:38] <Seveas> PrimeHex, then nothign is occupying the sound device :)
[06:38] <PrimeHex> Seveas: ah, ok
[06:39] <PrimeHex> I went around in circles for about 4 hours last night halfway tring to get this thing to work...
[06:39] <stefg> POVaddct, Some_Person, don't bother about the nvida-nic driver... forcedeth is in the kernel for ages, and no bugs are known so far
[06:39] <POVaddct> Some_Person: i dont know about at&t dsl. i live in germany and t-online dsl works for me.
[06:39] <toulouse> primehex,  check that whatever sound player you are using is using the same sound server (such as ALSA or OSS) as the systems sound
[06:39] <PrimeHex> I'm not mad or anything, snow in 0.1.4 is keeping me happy
[06:40] <PrimeHex> toulouse: checked that last night :D
[06:40] <PrimeHex> toulouse: and i'm not even getting system sound
[06:40] <toulouse> that's what fixed my problem
[06:40] <toulouse> oh, i wasnt either
[06:40] <toulouse> until i fixed the sound server issue
[06:40] <warty> ades   sakit betul kepala hang...
[06:40] <warty> dah la internet slow
[06:40] <Some_Person> nope, nvidia's drive wont work on ubuntu, there's no source
[06:40] <toulouse> i couldnt find how to switch it in gnome, kde has it in control panel>sound >sound server
[06:40] <POVaddct> stefg: there many new nforce ethernet cards now, not running perfectly with the forcedeth driver. nvidia changes the chipset behaviour every now and then.
[06:41] <toulouse> i still dont think it is available in gnome
[06:41] <PrimeHex> Seveas: last night some guy said this happens a lot and there's some easy fix for it...any ideas?
[06:41] <Seveas> PrimeHex, that's with flash 7
[06:41] <POVaddct> stefg: especially the gbit nforce cards gave me trouble
[06:41] <Some_Person> still, why did the pppoe work yesterday but not today?
[06:41] <PrimeHex> Seveas: oh :(
[06:41] <Seveas> I never had problems with flash9
[06:42] <PrimeHex> I think i just had bad luck somewhere
[06:42] <PrimeHex> I wish I could fix this
[06:42] <POVaddct> Some_Person: i cannot explain why i worked yesterday...
[06:42] <stefg> Some_Person: so what does 'ifconfig' spit out on your box?
[06:43] <toulouse> guys why can only one application output sound at a time???

[06:44] <Some_Person> stefg: i'll have to switch over to check
[06:44] <_eclipse> how do I know if I've got x86-64 or x86, I've got Pentium 4 64 bits.
[06:44] <Riyonuk_> is xfce supported by linux, like can I find it with apt-get?
[06:44] <_eclipse> Riyonuk_, yes
[06:44] <_eclipse> with all the linuxes.
[06:44] <POVaddct> Some_Person: you dont have a second computer, do you?
[06:44] <Some_Person> no
[06:44] <POVaddct> Some_Person: hmm
[06:45] <_eclipse> Riyonuk_ apt-cache search xfce4 and then install you preffered applications
[06:45] <Riyonuk_> Umm what would be the command to get it?
[06:45] <PrimeHex> Seveas: is there a way to completely restart the sound, and see if that does it?
[06:45] <Some_Person> one computer, one dsl modem
[06:45] <Seveas> reboot :)
[06:45] <_eclipse> Riyonuk_ apt-cache search, searchs for the packages, and apt-get install it! installs it
[06:45] <PrimeHex> Seveas: done that a few times :/
[06:45] <_eclipse> apt-cache search may be useful before apt-get install something:)
[06:45] <POVaddct> Some_Person, stefg: maybe it is a autonegotiation problem
[06:45] <Some_Person> if it matters, the modem is a siemens speedstream 4100
[06:46] <_eclipse> how do I know if I've got x86-64 or x86, I've got Pentium 4 64 bits.
[06:46] <POVaddct> Some_Person: german telekom also uses rebranded siemens dsl modems. no problem so far.
[06:46] <stefg> Some_Person:  i see... so you have a dsl line... is there a router involved, or do you plug directly in your dsl-modem?
[06:46] <PrimeHex> Seveas: what would i do to stop whatever is holding up the sound?
[06:46] <Some_Person> driectly
[06:47] <Seveas> PrimeHex, fuser -k /dev/dsp
[06:47] <Seveas> but lsof already told you nothing is locking it

[06:47] <stefg> Some_Person: ok, so dhcp won't work... are you positive that your provider uses pppoe, or is something different?
[06:47] <largopascual> hay alhguien
[06:48] <Riyonuk_> Ok, whats the main program though?
[06:48] <Taggert77> hi - one simple question.  I am new to Ubunto and I installed it on the second HD of my computer.  I also use Win XP on this computer.  How can I access the Win XP data from Ubuntu?  Where is the folder that says Windows?
[06:48] <POVaddct> stefg: we have been through pppoe -A -I eth0 and dhclient eth0 already. no luck...
[06:48] <Riyonuk_> _eclipse, which package do I want?
[06:48] <lotia> folks is there a gui for lvm management available in ubuntu?
[06:48] <Some_Person> i dont know, they wont tell me anything having to do with linux
[06:48] <_eclipse> Riyonuk_ apt-cache search xfce4
[06:48] <_eclipse> Riyonuk_ you'll get that answer.
[06:48] <PrimeHex> Seveas: shows nothing as well
[06:48] <Seveas> Riyonuk_, you'll most likely want xubuntu-desktop
[06:48] <Some_Person> i do know the modem logs in and connects to the internet by itself, not by the computer
[06:48] <_eclipse> Riyonuk_ reading packages' description might be useful
[06:49] <stefg> POVaddct: may it's pppoa (or whatever the name of is... Austria uses it a lotAFAIK)
[06:49] <_eclipse> Riyonuk_ it should be something like: window managaer
[06:49] <_eclipse> window manager
[06:49] <POVaddct> Some_Person: oh! you didnt tell me that
[06:49] <xyz> !mount |taggert77:

[06:49] <Taggert77> thx - i gonna try that
[06:49] <Some_Person> you can go to <IP_ADDRESS> in a browser (on windows) and log in that way
[06:49] <POVaddct> stefg: pppoa is new to me
[06:49] <xyz> ;)
[06:50] <PrimeHex> Seveas: shows nothing as well
[06:50] <largopascual> hola
[06:50] <neighborlee> hi there im wondering why: gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse  < does not  come up under a synaptic search yet: gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad < does..is this a minor goof in the HELP file in ubuntu ??

[06:50] <Some_Person> it stores the login and keeps a constant connection 24/7
[06:50] <Seveas> PrimeHex, then maybe a larg hammer will help
[06:50] <PrimeHex> Seveas: larg?
[06:50] <narvik86> e
[06:51] <PrimeHex> +e possibly?

[06:51] <Seveas> PrimeHex, yeah ;)
[06:51] <PrimeHex> oh
[06:51] <PrimeHex> >:E damnit
[06:51] <Some_Person> the problem is linux refuses to communicate with the modem
[06:52] <stefg> Some_Person: USB-modem? what manufacturer?
[06:52] <Some_Person> ethernet, siemens
[06:53] <PriceChild> !language PrimeHex|Games
[06:53] <PrimeHex|Games> >:E
[06:53] <stefg> Some_Person: i see... a dsl2-modem, prolly pppoe
[06:53] <PrimeHex|Games> stefg: pppoe is the password one right? has he put his user info in?
[06:53] <mojojojo__> hi! I upgraded to edgy and during upgrade X11 produced an error. No Synaptic doesn't work and upgrade manager fails to do anything :(
[06:54] <mojojojo__> No=Now*
[06:54] <|markie|> is there an way to config the network fro the console
[06:54] <violot> Does Alacarte run really slow for anyone else?
[06:54] <Some_Person> the modem is the thing that actually connects with user and pass, not the computer
[06:54] <PrimeHex|Games> Oh, well most times you still need to enter the user/password
[06:54] <Some_Person> and it keeps a constant connection even with computer turned off
[06:54] <borg> what's a good program to record video from my hauppage tv card that's on /dev/video1 ??
[06:54] <Some_Person> windows does not even have my user and pass, the modem does
[06:54] <PrimeHex|Games> I used to have pppoe and that's what you had to do for inital setup, was put in user/pass and all that
[06:55] <stefg> Some_Person: no, a *router* would do that...
[06:55] <TooR4u> !qemu-system-x86_64
[06:55] <Some_Person> i did too, but i gave it to the modem, not windows
[06:55] <POVaddct> Some_Person: the it is a router, not a plain modem
[06:55] <PrimeHex|Games> stefg: some modems have routers built in now
[06:55] <leonel> any clues when  we can have  the patched  firefox 2 in ubuntu
[06:55] <leonel> ?
[06:55] <POVaddct> Some_Person: how does the modem know the user/password data in the first place?
[06:55] <dontlovem> Dose anyone have the Default configure command for php around anywhere?
[06:55] <Some_Person> i gave it to it
[06:55] <dontlovem> to fet mysql
[06:55] <PrimeHex|Games> Some_Person: give it to it again
[06:55] <POVaddct> Some_Person: over which interface?
[06:55] <PrimeHex|Games> and on that note, I'm out
[06:55] <Some_Person> i went to http://<IP_ADDRESS> and i get a login form
[06:55] <Riyonuk_> Seveas, so I want xubuntu-desktop? Is that like another ubuntu? Cause I have ubuntu regular
[06:55] <stefg> PrimeHex|Games: true... in this case i'd call it a router with buikltin modem, not vice-versa
[06:56] <dontlovem> to get mysql connected to php and everything.
[06:56] <Some_Person> i enter my user and pass and it connects
[06:56] <POVaddct> Some_Person: argh, so why didnt you tell that earlier?
[06:56] <PrimeHex|Games> stefg: idk, mp3 playing cellphone or call making mp3 player? xD
[06:56] <Seveas> Riyonuk_, it'll install xfce on top of ubuntu
[06:56] <PrimeHex|Games> on that note, I'm out
[06:56] <PrimeHex|Games> bye
[06:56] <Seveas> and you can choose between xfce and gnome during login
[06:56] <POVaddct> Some_Person: that is totally different from pppoe
[06:56] <|markie|> how con i configure my network from the console. i need to add a static ipadres and default gateway
[06:56] <Some_Person> so, what is it then?
[06:57] <POVaddct> Some_Person: if this is how the modem works, pppoe could _never_ have worked
[06:57] <Seveas> |markie|, edit /etc/network/interfaces. See man 5 interfaces for details
[06:57] <Some_Person> but it did yesterday
[06:57] <POVaddct> Some_Person: coincidentially i guess
[06:57] <Some_Person> anyway, what do i do to make it work now?
[06:58] <POVaddct> Some_Person: my guess is it was still using the user/passwd data entered in windows and gave you address over dhco
[06:58] <POVaddct> *dhcp
[06:58] <Some_Person> no user/pass was entered in windows
[06:58] <Some_Person> just in firefox at http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[06:58] <stefg> So the Siemens-modems given away by ISP's are generally just _modems_, no routers inside. Some_Person, has it more than two network jacks (wan/local) ?
[06:58] <Some_Person> no
[06:59] <stefg> so it's amodem.... pppoe or pppoa
[06:59] <Some_Person> is it a modem or a router?
[06:59] <POVaddct> stefg: if he has a web interface, it must be more than a plain modem
[06:59] <stefg> a *modem', *modem*, *modem*
[06:59] <willskills> Some_Person, from Google; Default admin username  	 admin
[06:59] <willskills> Go to wiki
[06:59] <willskills> Default admin password 	admin (Bigpond-supplied) No Password (OptusNet-supplied)
[06:59] <POVaddct> stefg: and according to Some_Person, it _has_ a web interface
[07:00] <willskills> it looks liek the seimens modems require logins :o
[07:00] <Some_Person> it does, want a screenshot?
[07:00] <LameBMX> seimens?
[07:00] <TooR4u> hii anybody femiliar with qemu?
[07:00] <LameBMX> use the number on the bottom of the modem
[07:00] <willskills> why would I need that? Try admin/no password, and then admin/admin
[07:00] <willskills> see if either gets you in
[07:00] <LameBMX> admin
[07:00] <Some_Person> i can completely configure the modem through http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[07:00] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> TooR4u ,a bit ...not much details though....
[07:00] <LameBMX> bold number on bottom of modem
[07:00] <willskills> oh right sorry, what's the problem then?
[07:01] <Riyonuk_> Seveas, once I install it, I log out and back in to use it right?
[07:01] <POVaddct> Some_Person: why not configuring a fixed ip address in ubuntu (say <IP_ADDRESS>), set <IP_ADDRESS> as default gateway and manually configure dns to your provider's dns server?
[07:01] <POVaddct> Some_Person: then you could also go to the web interface
[07:02] <Some_Person> i cant get to it on ubuntu
[07:02] <TooR4u> GreyGhost-Ubuntu, i am installing windows on my box through qemu.....(Now i have some blue screen after installing...should i have to reboot my system now?)
[07:02] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> !anyone |  TooR4u
[07:02] <ubotu> TooR4u: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:02] <LameBMX> eimens modems default to <IP_ADDRESS> i believe
[07:02] <Some_Person> <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:02] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> TooR4u , Windows version?
[07:02] <TooR4u> xp
[07:03] <POVaddct> LameBMX: depends on the provider reselling the modem
[07:03] <LameBMX> i havent come across any that were different POV
[07:03] <POVaddct> LameBMX: that doesnt mean there are different ones
[07:03] <POVaddct> arent*
[07:03] <pr3d4t0r> Have a nice day, Everyone.
[07:03] <stefg> can't we just have the model-number and look the thing up on the friggin' Siemens-site?
[07:03] <LameBMX> no it dont .. but if he cant connect on 0.1 then what does trying 1.1
[07:03] <LameBMX> hutr
[07:03] <LameBMX> hurt
[07:03] <arrenlex> Happy birthday to me! :D
[07:04] <methy> i've got a pc running as a torrentdownloader with winxp and uTorrent & vnc, would it be hard to set up something similar in ubuntu?
[07:04] <derFlo> i cant find ed2k core (command line) for linux, can anyone give me a link to download it? thx
[07:04] <POVaddct> LameBMX: Some_Person still has to set the ip address of eth0 accordingly to be in the right subnet
[07:04] <stefg> methy: i have that
[07:04] <alienseer23> Q: on dapper, all of my mounted partitions appeared on the desktop and in the menu tree of nautilus, how do I get them back in edgy??
[07:04] <Some_Person> its dynamic
[07:04] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> TooR4u , i suggest u pop into #qemu .... this is much more QEMU related IMO ... i think they'll be more helpful ...
[07:04] <Milos_SD> will Intel 537EP modem work in Edgy Eft?
[07:04] <pike_> methy: cake
[07:04] <LameBMX> POVaddct:
[07:04] <LameBMX> a) dhcp is easier
[07:04] <Some_Person> or do i put in the modem's ip, <IP_ADDRESS>?
[07:05] <POVaddct> LameBMX: Some_Person already tried to get ip address via dhcp. no luck.
[07:05] <LameBMX> new seaimens modems handle the pppoe connections and then his computer can just config with dhcp
[07:05] <LameBMX> thats why
[07:05] <LameBMX> Some_Person: what model seimans
[07:05] <POVaddct> LameBMX: would you please just _scroll back_ and read what we have tried so far.
[07:05] <Some_Person> speedstream 4100
[07:06] <stefg> Obviously this is 'should handle the connection' , not 'handles the connection'
[07:06] <Milos_SD> Q: will Intel 537EP modem work in Edgy Eft?

[07:07] <Some_Person> in windows, i have my actual user/pass
[07:07] <LameBMX> then try <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:07] <methy> any tips on partitioning 2x120gb's?
[07:07] <ravalox> does one exist?
[07:07] <LameBMX> are you putting the http:// infront of the ip addy Some_Person
[07:07] <Some_Person> yes
[07:07] <stefg> ravalox: epson DX-line, or the HP-stuff
[07:07] <willskills> either that or reset the modem with the button on the back and use the default IP?
[07:08] <Some_Person> in windows, the cconnection is working, i have a user and pass from my isp
[07:08] <LameBMX> Some_Person:
[07:08] <Some_Person> the config page is customized by my isp, obviously, since there's an sbc logo on it
[07:08] <daviey> Hi, how can i force re-install of language-pack-gnome-en-base ??
[07:09] <LameBMX> you need to use admin to log into the modem ... the user and pass from your isp will go into the pppoe setting when you are logged into the modem (using admin/number on bottom of modem)
[07:09] <stefg> daviey: sudo apt-get install --reinstall package_name
[07:09] <alienseer23> how do I activate the disk icons on my desktop and in my "my comuter" folder for mounted partitions??
[07:09] <Some_Person> i dont know what you mean
[07:10] <Some_Person> to log in again, i'd have to disconnect from the internet

[07:16] <Nitro> it's quite simple, I'm just too new =P
[07:16] <LameBMX> sounds like them old cable modems / dlink routers that dont want to give ip addys back out until after you reboot .. but know that
[07:16] <LameBMX> !anybody | Nitro
[07:16] <ubotu> Nitro: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:17] <stefg> daviey: that's was google spit out: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=debian-devel&m=98791861414949&w=2
[07:17] <Nitro> hehe. How can I kill an app running on ubuntu that has locked up
[07:17] <deepsa> does 6.10 in live cd ?
[07:17] <deepsa> Nitro: man kill
[07:17] <LameBMX> Nitro: kill process id number
[07:18] <Nitro> ok.....
[07:18] <LameBMX> lol ... the fun things to figure out
[07:18] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> Nitro ,or use ... System -- > Admin. --> system mmonitor ....
[07:18] <grout> when i type top does it kill the list of all the processes or just a few?
[07:18] <deepsa> grout: it doesnt kill anything
[07:18] <grout> i mean list
[07:18] <grout> not kil
[07:18] <gabi> hello - i use dapper , on the top panel i lost the part that has all the applications and menus- how can i bring it back?
[07:18] <deepsa> lol
[07:18] <grout> lol
[07:19] <daviey> stefg, didn't work!! :(
[07:19] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> night all ...
[07:19] <deepsa> gabi: right click and add to panel and it add windows list
[07:19] <grout> when i type top does it  list all the processes or just a few?
[07:19] <deepsa> gabi: sorry add to panel and search you will find it
[07:19] <NickGarvey> grout: it will show as many as your screen can fit, "ps aux" will list all of them
[07:20] <stefg> daviey: try to sudo apt-get remove -- purge languagepack-blabla first, and tehn try to install it again
[07:20] <NickGarvey> grout: top will actively monitor the processes though
[07:20] <grout> ok thanks
[07:20] <gabi> deepsa,  menu-bar! thanks!@
[07:20] <deepsa> gabi: np
[07:20] <siarhei> can someone show me a how-to for Open Arena installation, please?
[07:20] <Some_Person> ok, i have the output of ifconfig
[07:21] <stefg> good!
[07:21] <willskills> siarhei - go to the ubuntu forums and search? :)
[07:21] <deepsa> Some_Person: pastebin
[07:21] <grout> how can i make something start at start up for a lamp server?
[07:21] <borg> what's a good program to record video from my v4l hauppage tv card that's on /dev/video1 ??
[07:21] <Some_Person> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39039/
[07:21] <deepsa> grout: what you want to start
[07:21] <siarhei> willskills, i tried, no luck
[07:21] <grout> deepsa mt-daap
[07:21] <deepsa> borg: best i know is videLAN
[07:21] <stefg> grout: that's what rc.local is for
[07:21] <deepsa> videoLAN through VLC
[07:22] <borg> deepsa, aight i'll try that
[07:22] <deepsa> grout: is it a service or what(daemon)?
[07:22] <grout> deepsa its a service
[07:23] <deepsa> Some_Person: it's clearly seen that your ethernet device is not properly configured
[07:23] <borg> deepsa, so wait is that a plugin for VLC?
[07:23] <Some_Person> ok, how do i configure it right?
[07:23] <deepsa> borg: VLC itself
[07:23] <deepsa> Some_Person: you need to see in the menus somewhere in administration > network card configuration
[07:23] <borg> deepsa, hmm, i didnt know VLC could record things
[07:23] <deepsa> grout: you can use /etc/rc.d/rc.local
[07:24] <deepsa> borg: it can and you can try others like mplayer
[07:24] <fromvega> does ubuntu have squidguard in its repositories?
[07:24] <borg> deepsa, mplayer too? wow
[07:24] <deepsa> fromvega: ya
[07:24] <deepsa> borg: ya
[07:24] <Some_Person> which menu option?
[07:25] <willskills> Some_Person, System > Adminsitration > Networking
[07:25] <Some_Person> and what exactly do i put in?
[07:25] <stefg> Some_Person: so the driver is there and working, the interface is set up... you need an IP now, and probably need to adjust the MTU to 1472 or so
[07:26] <Some_Person> the modem knows my ip
[07:26] <fromvega> deepsa: where? when I type aptitude search squid* it just returns squid and squid-common
[07:26] <deepsa> Some_Person: set your ethernet device to take the ip from dhcp (that is your modem)
[07:26] <Some_Person> it is
[07:26] <deepsa> fromvega: maybe it is not
[07:26] <stefg> Some_Person: no, it does not... your modem is actually a router :-)
[07:27] <Some_Person> ok, so how do i set it?
[07:27] <Nitro> the install app in ubuntu kepps locking every time I try to install something :<
[07:27] <jpjacobs> !kqemu > TooR4u
[07:28] <toulouse> Nitro: that's not too good
[07:28] <thing> I am preparing preinstallation of Ubuntu for a pc-builder. We would prefer an image of ubuntu preinstalled to deploy on all pc configurations. Is this possible? alternate options?
[07:28] <Some_Person> what do i put in for ip? subnet mask? gateway?
[07:28] <stefg> Some_Person: there's a NAT-router in it that translates your 'leased IP' from your ISP into a local network one. So this micro-router is obviously too stupid to give a working dhcp lease for a linux-box, so POVaddct was right when he suggested to use a fixed IP
[07:28] <methy> thing: dl the alternate cd
[07:28] <Some_Person> ok, but what ip do i use?
[07:28] <enyc> thing: hrrm sounds very possible... there is OEM mode on some cds
[07:28] <toulouse> thing: could you just make copies of every ubuntu type? (such as i386, amd64, ppc)
[07:29] <enyc> Some_Person: look at ip addressos on other devices
[07:29] <jpjacobs> thing, i've made a perlscript for stuff like this if you want.
[07:29] <enyc> Some_Person: what other hosts do you have working on the same subnet?
[07:29] <obductor> peoplo i want see my nickname: http://ghostdog.home.sapo.pt/CapturaEcra.png help me
[07:29] <Some_Person> i dont know
[07:29] <Nitro> how am I gonna get it too work?
[07:29] <thing> methy: is there any documentation for alternate cd?
[07:29] <thing> enyc:  OEM mode cannot be done silently afaik
[07:29] <LameBMX> Some_Person: next time you leave windows do ipconfig /release
[07:29] <methy> thing: dunno :[
[07:29] <Some_Person> i know the gateway address and the subnet mask
[07:30] <Some_Person> but what do i put for ip?
[07:30] <stefg> Some_Person: you'll have to fin out what IP the router presents to the 'LAN' (which is just your box and the router) if the second last number isn't right, it won't work, because you're on a different subnet
[07:30] <enyc> Some_Person: right... and nameserver addresses that get used?
[07:30] <elTigr1> what filesystem should I choose for my / partition
[07:30] <elTigr1> ?
[07:30] <LameBMX> gateway address + 1
[07:30] <enyc> Some_Person: well.... the DHCP server may choose a range....   do your other hosts tend to get allocated an address 100 -upwards or something?
[07:30] <toulouse> !filesystem
[07:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about filesystem - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:30] <thing> jpjacobs: interested. Why script? What does it do? and how?
[07:30] <toulouse> oh that doesnt exist
[07:30] <enyc> Some_Person: i.e. what other ip addresses hdo other working hosts have as the machine address?
[07:31] <elTigr1> is reiserfs slower than ext3?
[07:31] <elTigr1> !reiserfs
[07:31] <ubotu> reiserfs is a journalling file system, in benchmarks it outperforms many others on I/O operations, but they take notoriously long to mount.
[07:31] <hans_madrid> Hi There!
[07:31] <Some_Person> windows says in ipconfig: my ip is <IP_ADDRESS>; my gateway is <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:31] <jpjacobs> thing see pm
[07:31] <elTigr1> !ext3
[07:31] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[07:31] <LameBMX> hey ... speadstream 4100 is not a router .. its a single device modem .. so he only has his computer connected to it
[07:31] <toulouse> use ext3 right ?
[07:31] <Some_Person> subnet is <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:31] <deepsa> ubotu: what you want to do register your nick at freenode
[07:31] <borg> deepsa, ok, i see the recording options for vlc but are there any in mplayer, or was that totem you were talking about?
[07:31] <enyc> Some_Person: that is odd... IP and gateway the same... sounds like connected directly to an isp thing
[07:31] <dontlovem> how can i istnall curl
[07:31] <enyc> Some_Person: is this on a PPP link adapter?
[07:31] <dontlovem> apt-get install curl the php module?
[07:31] <eegore> I was trying to change the virus protection on my windows boot and it messed up grub. I tried to chroot into the linux boot and I get the following arror when I try to install grub on hda ;/dev/hda: Not found or not a block device.
[07:32] <elTigr1> well, I used reiserfs before ....
[07:32] <Some_Person> no, ip is +1
[07:32] <toulouse> LOL viruses
[07:32] <Some_Person> i pasted wrong
[07:32] <deepsa> borg: man mplayer
[07:32] <elTigr1> but ubuntu defaults to ext3 so I wanted to check
[07:32] <thing> jpjacobs: 404
[07:32] <hans_madrid> Hi. Sorry, I'm a n00b in Ubuntu and I have mostly forgotten all IRC things. Could somebody just tell me that can read me?
[07:32] <enyc> Some_Person: ok try again ;-)
[07:32] <enyc> Some_Person: subnet wask, ip address. default gateway  please
[07:32] <jpjacobs> thing, 1 second
[07:32] <toulouse> we can read ya man
[07:32] <willskills> hans_madrid, yes, reading you loud and clear!
[07:32] <stefg> Some_Person: OMFFG.... a sick solution, which only SIEMENS engineers could have invented...  NAT without adress translation :-)
[07:32] <Some_Person> i'll just pastebin it all
[07:32] <yandel> is there a package for nfsen?
[07:32] <toulouse> hans_madrid: we hear ya
[07:32] <hans_madrid> Oh, thanx Touluse
[07:32] <methy> ive got a moviedisk which is 120gb and ntfs, should i make it ext3 or just stick with ntfs? im planning on installing ubuntu on the pc
[07:32] <hans_madrid> Thanks!!
[07:32] <toulouse> i dont know anything bout irc either
[07:32] <Nitro> Wehn I try to install something from ubuntu, it locks up, and nothing happens. Help please?

What do I need to research in order to fix this? I am using xorg
[07:33] <Riyonuk> Wow Xfce is really nice, almost what Im looking for, thanks Seveas
[07:33] <toulouse> hey guys, how do i make a icon on the toolbar for xchat
[07:33] <deepsa> henning: do you know of a perl script that can download yahoo mails to your evoultion inbox
[07:33] <methy> yandel: apt-get update
[07:33] <Riyonuk> toulouse, just drag it there
[07:33] <Admiral_Chicago> yandel: yes
[07:33] <dontlovem> can someone help me with my php ./configure?
[07:33] <yandel> what about that dist search command
[07:33] <toulouse> okie dokie
[07:34] <Admiral_Chicago> both of those work
[07:34] <enyc> Some_Person: looks like that in connected directly toa  cable provider
[07:34] <Some_Person> its dsl
[07:34] <yandel> dpkg search?
[07:34] <dontlovem> if i paste them that i it configured with?
[07:34] <LameBMX> Some_Person: that modem is configured bridge ... use the pppoe tools
[07:34] <enyc> Some_Person: hrrrm but this is on a network adapter
[07:34] <Admiral_Chicago> yandel: apt-cache search <string>
[07:34] <Some_Person> i tried the darn pppoe
[07:34] <henning> deepsa, no I don't. I am writing in perl very rarely sorry
[07:34] <enyc> Some_Person: what is the ethernet caxle connected to?
[07:34] <Some_Person> by adapter it means internet connection
[07:34] <stefg> Some_Person: use <IP_ADDRESS> as a fixed IP for your ubuntu-box, and <IP_ADDRESS> as the DNS
[07:34] <deepsa> henning: okay
[07:34] <LameBMX> enyc seimens speedstream 4100
[07:34] <Some_Person> it said adapter for my old dialup isp
[07:34] <jcole> i've got a file that is delimited by colons (:) ... it appears that some of my data has carriage returns in it... and idea of how i can use sed to remove them? it looks like it's always the last field
[07:35] <Some_Person> ok
[07:35] <toulouse> Riyonuk: thanks, i didnt realize it was under apps>internet! i thought it was activated throught terminal only (cause that's how ive been doin it)
[07:35] <Riyonuk> How do I install warsow? I cant seem to figure it out, http://www.warsow.net/wiki/index.php?title=Installation , I double clicked warsow after extracting it and it just made my resolution lower -_-
[07:35] <gsnedders> for the PPC live CD, how can you change the resolution above 1024x768?
[07:35] <Naik0> why cant i watch movies at youtube.com
[07:35] <jwage> I am trying to configure my video card with an external monitor on my laptop and I have my resolutions and eveyrthing setup correctly, but when I scroll vertically or drag something fast across the screen, it is not very smooth and is pretty choppy. What do I need to research in order to fix this? I am using xorg
[07:35] <Riyonuk> toulouse, uhh wow, I actually helped somebody..:p shows you how cool I am
[07:35] <toulouse> LOL
[07:35] <deepsa> Naik0: you need flash
[07:35] <Admiral_Chicago> !flash > Naik0
[07:35] <hans_madrid> Automatix has installed "VMWare". Is that legal?
[07:35] <henning> deepsa, does yahoo mail offer pop3 or imap access?
[07:35] <Admiral_Chicago> hans_madrid: should be
[07:35] <deepsa> henning: imap
[07:35] <toulouse> Naik0: you need to get flash, look in ubuntu repositories (synaptic)
[07:35] <henning> or just plain html
[07:35] <enyc> Some_Person: hrrrm i suspect they will only allocate you 1 ip address nayway..... are you trying te reboot this same computer to run ubuntulinux on the same connectiod?
[07:36] <hans_madrid> Thanks Admiral_Chicago
[07:36] <Naik0> deepsa: yes i tried to install that but it doesnt work
[07:36] <Admiral_Chicago> henning: imap
[07:36] <mhuetsch> this has happened to me twice now: ubuntu gets really really laggy under one account (have to hold down a key for like 5 secs for the keystroke to register even once). after it happens, that account is basically hosed, though i can still use it in safe mode. i made a new account and everything was fine for awhile and now same thing. any idea where to start debugging?
[07:36] <deepsa> Naik0: idk then
[07:36] <jpjacobs> hans_madrid, vmware player is legal, the full suite is paying or trial
[07:36] <henning> deepsa, oh well then why not using imap via evolution?
[07:36] <Naik0> deepsa what idk?
[07:36] <nkRush> is there a workaraound for xchat not remembering its position after minimizing it to tray, when I maximize it it's back to the middle of the screen which is annoying?!
[07:36] <deepsa> Naik0: i don't know
[07:36] <hans_madrid> Oooh
[07:36] <deepsa> henning: yahoo anyhow doesn't provide facility to download mails
[07:36] <Admiral_Chicago> henning: not sure, I don't use yahoo mail.
[07:36] <stefg> Some_Person: use *<IP_ADDRESS>* as a fixed IP... correction
[07:36] <willskills> Some_Person, do you have connect through Telewest? If so, turn off your PC, unplug your modem for 4 minutes (at the wall) and restart in Ubuntu - you might have some luck
[07:36] <hans_madrid> So if I use VMPlayer alone,
[07:36] <hans_madrid> it is legal, right?
[07:37] <toulouse> nkRush: i think i know what your talking about it has to catch up or somehting
[07:37] <dontlovem> http://pastebin.com/845866
[07:37] <deepsa> hans_madrid: ya perfectly legal
[07:37] <willskills> I know there DHCP is a bit wierd, but I think it just works on MAC address, so you shouldn't really be having a problem....
[07:37] <hans_madrid> I changed to Ubuntu mainly because of that bullshit about licences!
[07:37] <enyc> stefg: I hdont think hde is attached to a NAT gateway
[07:37] <henning> Admiral_Chicago, me neither lol... but obviously deepsa does
[07:37] <willskills> thier*
[07:37] <hans_madrid> Thank you, deepsa and jpjacobs
[07:37] <jpjacobs> hans_madrid, yes that's right
[07:37] <jpjacobs> np
[07:37] <deepsa> hans_madrid: np
[07:37] <Admiral_Chicago> hopefull he/she can help then
[07:37] <enyc> stefg: rather a 'ethernet half bridge' that does the PPPOA on one side and serves tehe single IP wia DHCP to the computer
[07:37] <deepsa> henning: i heard yosucker
[07:37] <enyc> stefg: with no NAPT
[07:37] <gsnedders> also, how can I view the key map?
[07:37] <Riyonuk> Where are the Xfce themes located at?
[07:37] <henning> huh?
[07:37] <stefg> enyc: look at the full desaster at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39040/
[07:38] <deepsa> henning: http://yosucker.sourceforge.net/
[07:38] <enyc> stefg: yes I saw that already
[07:38] <henning> lemme c
[07:39] <henning> deepsa, ah ic
[07:39] <deepsa> ya henning
[07:39] <henning> but well I would not use yahoo anymore
[07:39] <enyc> stefg: either the ISP or the modem-box has a <IP_ADDRESS> is there which is entirely possible without needing to have the computer on the 192.168.0.x subnet --  I have recursive nameserveice setup on "<IP_ADDRESS>" address that is not in a subnet computers are on
[07:39] <pike_> Riyonuk: xfce should use the gtk gnome themes i think
[07:39] <deepsa> henning: nice
[07:39] <henning> there are so much other freemailers
[07:39] <Admiral_Chicago> gmail is the best imho
[07:39] <toulouse_> yay for gmail
[07:39] <stefg> enyc: so dhcp server and gateway are different.... NAT without translation. so i'd guess you need to be on the 192.168.0.x subnet to talk to the 'router'
[07:40] <enyc> stefg: no its not necessary
[07:40] <enyc> stefg: it just needs to ARP for the gateway
[07:40] <toulouse_> hey guys
[07:40] <derFlo_> blah
[07:40] <enyc> stefg: and the modem answers proxy-arp answers
[07:40] <toulouse_> im having trouble with xchat
[07:41] <toulouse_> i  try to join quakenet
[07:41] <toulouse_> then try to join a channel
[07:41] <enyc> stefg: its kindof complicated... ;-)
[07:41] <toulouse_> and it turns grey
[07:41] <stefg> enyc: got you :-)
[07:41] <toulouse_> and then i have to xkilll it
[07:41] <Riyonuk> pike_, I mean how do I install new ones? I just downloaded one...
[07:41] <deepsa> toulouse_ what was the error
[07:41] <willskills> toulouse, if you have been using mirc, you don't have to use # in there - In Xchat - you have to use #<chan name>
[07:41] <deepsa> toulouse_ maybe yo do /join #xchat
[07:41] <jpjacobs> thing, and is the script somewhat like what you seek?
[07:41] <toulouse_> ok, i'll try that, i didnt do anything tho
[07:42] <wiseelben> anyone know of a script or program that can download an entire website, including all the resources?
[07:42] <enyc> stefg: lol i know somebody who screwed up cox internet by proxy-arp replies both ways.... answering cox-side-arp for 10.101.x.x was scrwing up cox's network nicely because of their stupid network
[07:42] <gsnedders> also, how can I view the key map, because I don't have a clue how you can do such characters now I'm trying Ubuntu again...
[07:42] <toulouse_> i just joined quakenet right? and then a box pops up with available channels,and xchat goes gray
[07:42] <enyc> stefg: whereas my ISP route a proper /28 address block to me.. and I static-route that between my gatemway-router and linux-subnetting-machine
[07:42] <Riyonuk> pike_, ?
[07:42] <Samyel> I find xchat counter-intuitive too, especially after being used to MIRC
[07:43] <toulouse_> i havent used mirc
[07:43] <deepsa> i use gaim
[07:43] <stefg> enyc: how to put your ISP's network-admins to a shame, part 1 :-)
[07:43] <toulouse_> gaim huh
[07:43] <toulouse_> i can try that
[07:43] <toulouse_> but someone said it's no good
[07:43] <willskills> I hate it for IRC
[07:43] <willskills> it's great for all the other messengers though
[07:43] <enyc> stefg: and... I have a private block between the gateway-router and the linux-subnetting-machine... with no NAT.... the linux machine  has an iproute2 rule involving a 'source hint' and the gateway-router has a static-route pointing to the linux-machine
[07:43] <willskills> if you are not 14 y/o and want "special smileys"
[07:43] <liberion> hey guys!!
[07:43] <toulouse_> well xchat wont let me get on quakenet, so i guess gaim it is
[07:43] <enyc> stefg: the packets to-from the real-IPs can cross to the 'gateway' addresses on the LAN... just needs the ARP reply there...
[07:44] <uliss1> ciao people!
[07:44] <henning> I have a question about best practice with ubuntu partition sizes... For encryption and administration reasons I want to use separate partitions for /root /tmp /var /swap /home. For some reason I have chosen the sizes too small I think. That is cus I am not able to update the Ubuntu Distribution Version e.g. from 5.10 to 6.06. I think that has todo with the sizes of /tmp and/or /var. Can anybody help me with the right size?
[07:44] <uliss1> can somebody help me to get my modem started automatically at boot?
[07:44] <deepsa> henning: sure
[07:44] <deepsa> uliss1: which modem is it
[07:44] <un_operateur> enyc, what is a " linux-subnetting-machine" ?
[07:45] <uliss1> deepsa: it's a eciadsl one
[07:45] <stefg> henning: /var/apt/cache can be around 1G, if you don't clean up
[07:45] <enyc> un_operateur: its a machine i run with 6 ethernet interfaces  with different rubnets on them... it routes between / runs NAPT
[07:45] <deepsa> uliss1: so you have dsl connection which you want to start automatically at boot
[07:45] <un_operateur> enyc, you said it didnt run NAT??
[07:45] <henning> stefg, yes I did so but 1 GB was too small for the version update mechanism of ubuntu
[07:46] <enyc> un_operateur: firewall rules etc.. runs recursive-dns with uptodate list of root nameservers... also avaids haddling external servers for forward-reverse r.e. internal/private IPs
[07:46] <linux_scholar> What's the difference between XFCE and Gnome? Xubuntu shows very little difference from Ubuntu.
[07:46] <enyc> un_operateur: it has NAPT...
[07:46] <uliss1> deepsa: right, I just need to know how to set up a script to launch eciadsl-start, I think
[07:46] <stefg> henning: that's the apt-cache alone..:-) there's other things in /var, too :-)
[07:46] <deepsa> linux_scholar: xfce is light weight desktop gnome is not soo
[07:46] <enyc> un_operateur: but I can sub-subnet a /29 or /30 to another subnet with real-IPs if i like
[07:46] <un_operateur> enyc, by NAPT you mean port translation??
[07:46] <deepsa> uliss1: which command you use to connect to dsl. adsl-start?
[07:46] <enyc> un_operateur: yess .network address with port tranlation... different no plain NAT
[07:46] <pike_> Riyonuk: unpack the file to /usr/share/themes/ i think
[07:46] <linux_scholar> deepsa:what do you mean by "light weight"? does that mean it's better for older computers?
[07:47] <uliss1> deepsa: eciadsl-start
[07:47] <hans_madrid> bye, c u l8r
[07:47] <un_operateur> enyc, yes, i know -- but it is NAT nonetheless
[07:47] <deepsa> linux_scholar: ya maybe it's better
[07:47] <pike_> Riyonuk: sorry boss keeps walking by..
[07:47] <linux_scholar> ok.
[07:47] <deepsa> uliss1: how you set it up with eciadsl-setup ?
[07:47] <Riyonuk> pike_, LOL, thanks
[07:47] <henning> stefg, my /var has 1 GB and my /tmp has 1 GB too which partition is the important one for the ubuntu version update?
[07:47] <pos69sum> has anyone upgraded mysql to mysql5?
[07:47] <pos69sum> has anyone upgraded mysql to mysql5?
[07:47] <deepsa> pike_: what is full form of boss
[07:47] <henning> then I will increase this one to 2GB
[07:47] <enyc> un_operateur: e.g. trocoll/wiltscoll had a NAT (NOT NAPT) running between the interneta an d their dmz/like hosts... <IP_ADDRESS> -- <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS> -- <IP_ADDRESS>  etc.
[07:47] <adaptr> pike_: and your boss does not approve of your spending time on Ubuntu ? Get a better one :)
[07:47] <Admiral_Chicago> !repeat > pos69sum
[07:48] <uliss1> deepsa: I just type "sudo eciadsl-start" in the terminal and it starts to sync
[07:48] <enyc> un_operateur: <IP_ADDRESS> being a RFC1918 private address
[07:48] <Riyonuk> pike_, You do not have permission to write to this folder...uhh...wtf
[07:48] <deepsa> uliss1:  open /etc/rc.d/rc.local and put in sudo eciadsl-start in it and save and exit and now if you reboot you will be connected. enjoy!!
[07:48] <un_operateur> enyc, do you have a problem or you here to teach NAT? that's all i'm worried about :)
[07:48] <stefg> henning: /var/cache/apt/archives holds all downloaded packages... so /var is too small. BTW, you know tmpfs? Far better to put your /tmp in swapspace ...
[07:49] <enyc> un_operateur: NAPT is different and stateful-requirement
[07:49] <elTigr1> this stupid installer won't let me install ubuntu, under the alleged cause that I did not specify a root partition even though in this "mount point dialogue" I entered / for /dev/hda1....
[07:49] <enyc> un_operateur: no problem ;-)
[07:49] <trilingualkid> Hi. I've been using Ubuntu for a few days now, and I was wondering about different Linux distros. I became interested in trying out KDE for a while, so I need an answer to this question: (I'm downloading the Kubuntu ISO @ this very moment) how do I burn a CD Image to a CD using CD/DVD Creator?
[07:49] <henning> stefg, do u think 2 GB for /var is enough size for the  complete ubuntu download?
[07:49] <enyc> elTigr1: hrrm if you cant work that out even after restarting the installer... try ithe -alternate install cd
[07:49] <stefg> henning: should be
[07:49] <elTigr1> -.-
[07:49] <henning> stefg, no I didn't know tmpfs
[07:50] <henning> ok thx
[07:50] <Hirvinen> trilingualkid: Why don't you just install the kubuntu-desktop metapackage?
[07:50] <un_operateur> enyc, it's called NAPT/PAT/NAT overloading is still NAT because it still translates between source and destination addresses
[07:50] <enyc> trilingualkid: you dont need to do that as there is a single package repository... you can insstall 'kubuntu-base' or similar and have kde installed on the same system
[07:50] <trilingualkid> hirvinen: what's the metapackage?
[07:50] <pike_> Riyonuk: sudo
[07:50] <trilingualkid> enyc: what do u mean?
[07:50] <eztk> join #ubuntu-uk
[07:50] <eztk> oops
[07:50] <enyc> trilingualkid: on existing ubuntu/fgone... you can install the right base package that will install all the kde parts too
[07:51] <un_operateur> enyc, and you should be calling your "subnetter-machine" a router, because thats what routers do, connect up different subnets
[07:51] <Hirvinen> trilingualkid: A metapackage is a package whose only purpose is to install a certain set of "proper" packages.
[07:51] <lesshaste> how do you get thunderbird with lightning support for ubuntu?
[07:51] <pike_> Riyonuk: id probably tar xfvz theme.tar.gz then sudo mv themdirectory /usr/share/themes/
[07:51] <enyc> trilingualkid: xubuntu kubuntu ubuntu edubuntu are all the same 'software source repository' -- just different cdds that install a different base-package at install-time
[07:51] <enyc> un_operateur: well fine.. it is a router indeed ;-)
[07:52] <henning> anybody here using xubuntu? I am thinking about trying this but I haven't found a list of the preinstalled applications xubuntu is using (mailer, browser, messenger, office,...)
[07:52] <Hirvinen> trilingualkid: Installing Ubuntu, then installing kubuntu-desktop and then removing ubuntu-desktop and all its dependencies is almost equivalent to installing Kubuntu.
[07:52] <stefg_> henning: http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-fs3.html
[07:52] <uliss1> deepsa: ok, done. It was /etc/rc.local instead of /etc/rc.d/rc.local, but I think it is the right one
[07:53] <deepsa> uliss1: oh okay
[07:53] <stefg_> henning: firefox, thunderbird, no messenger, abiword or openoffice
[07:53] <yandel> How do I start a program at startup?
[07:53] <yandel> its currently in my /etc/init.d/
[07:53] <willskills> yandel - System > Preferences > Sessions
[07:53] <yandel> willskills: from there?
[07:54] <Zaggynl> gah
[07:54] <Zaggynl> getting sick of this
[07:54] <willskills> yandel, that is one way to do it, yeah
[07:54] <Zaggynl> -every- music player freezes once in a while
[07:54] <Zaggynl> I'm listening to music from an usb device
[07:54] <un_operateur> yandel, you need a symlink to one of the /etc/rc*.d directories -- depending on the runlevel you want the program/daemon to start in
[07:54] <henning> hmm
[07:54] <henning> no messenger is bad
[07:55] <un_operateur> yandel, if it's a user program, you shouldnt put it in either of those directories, rather in your WM's startup scripts
[07:55] <thing> jpjacobs: 404 still
[07:55] <adaptr> yandel: update-rc.d <programname> defaults
[07:55] <timo901> Zaggynl:you need a good set up to be able to use beryl the way it was intended and enjoy it
[07:55] <Zaggynl> timo901, euh wrong person I think
[07:56] <Zaggynl> timo901, I don't run beryl
[07:56] <timo901> ok , isee
[07:56] <adaptr> Zaggynl: why ever not ? :)
[07:56] <deepsa> timo901: i have intel 945 and beryl works great
[07:56] <PrimeHex|Games> timo901: you need beryl help?
[07:56] <PrimeHex|Games> timo901: what do you need help with?
[07:56] <Zaggynl> It's just fluff that will add more unstability
[07:56] <Zaggynl> I can't play any game with beryl, so meh
[07:57] <adaptr> Zaggynl: how do you know ?
[07:57] <borg> deepsa,
[07:57] <elTigr1> the ubuntu installer is crap
[07:57] <Zaggynl> and even if I can some way, the perfomance will be worse
[07:57] <adaptr> Zaggynl: oh so that's it ;-)
[07:57] <deepsa> borg:
[07:57] <Music_Shuffle> The installer works fine.
[07:57] <PrimeHex|Games> Zaggynl: see, I have it running on my fourth thread, so it doesn't affect performace at all for me
[07:57] <Aardwolf> Hi, I just installed ubuntu, but I'm having some problems. In select resolution, I can only select "60Hz" and it makes my eyes bleed. My monitor supports higher refresh rates. How can I make it to offer a higher refresh rate than 60Hz in the list?
[07:57] <PrimeHex|Games> Aardwolf: you need to edit the xorg.conf file to change it
[07:57] <elTigr1> for me it won't accept a simple partition as root partition and refuse to install on it
[07:57] <Zaggynl> PrimeHex|Games, fourth thread?
[07:58] <adaptr> Aardwolf: 60Hz is not a resolution....
[07:58] <borg> deepsa, which options do i select for the capture device under v4l in vlc to record to a file that can actually be read by other players?
[07:58] <deepsa> Aardwolf: configure /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:58] <PrimeHex|Games> Aardwolf: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:58] <PrimeHex|Games> Aardwolf: then go down to the display list, add your desired resolutions/refresh rates, and save
[07:58] <deepsa> borg: i have never done that maybe man vlc helps or vlc --help
[07:58] <adaptr> Aardwolf: you'll have to do some hacking of /etc/X11/xorg.conf to get it to understand your monitor
[07:58] <borg> deepsa, kk
[07:58] <elTigr1> even though the hard disk is brand new, nothing on it and it's /dev/hda1 that I want mounted on "/"... I simply can't see why the damn installer can't figure out what I want my root partition to be
[07:58] <PrimeHex|Games> Zaggynl: i'm on a x6800 Core2Duo, it has more then one processor/processing thread
[07:58] <Zaggynl> PrimeHex|Games, oh
[07:58] <PrimeHex|Games> :D
[07:59] <Aardwolf> ok, I already edited xorg.conf for it but still didn't see the 60Hz in the list, can it be that it's solved after a reboot?
[07:59] <Zaggynl> Can someone explain me while my usb hdd keeps resetting?
[07:59] <Aardwolf> *still only saw the 60Hz
[07:59] <Zaggynl> *why
[07:59] <PrimeHex|Games> Aardwolf: did you do it in the same format that was already listen (with quotes and such)
[07:59] <timo901> its snowing here guys :)
[07:59] <Zaggynl> I keep seeing this: 'Dec 27 19:55:24 localhost kernel: [17208323.940000]  usb 5-1: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2'
[07:59] <Aardwolf> yep I just changed the numbers :)
[07:59] <Zaggynl> in my syslog
[07:59] <PrimeHex|Games> Aardwolf: if so, use control+alt+backspace to restard X, it will close everything though so save things before you do it xD
[07:59] <PrimeHex|Games> s/d/t/
[07:59] <elTigr1> ah now I get it... the installer doesn't want to install on reiserf
[08:00] <elTigr1> s
[08:01] <uliss1> deepsa: it worked, now I only have to deal with that crappy synch that often doesn't work...
[08:01] <uliss1> deepsa: thank you
[08:02] <PrimeHex|Games> Aardwolf: are you going to restart X, or are you about to pingout
[08:02] <PrimeHex|Games> methinks second
[08:02] <nolimitsoya> can i use tab indents withing bash scripts without any ill effects?
[08:02] <Aardwolf> I'm in windows atm, just looked up my DNS server ip, hopefully that will allow me to fix the other problem, the network :D
[08:02] <PrimeHex|Games> Aardwolf: ah ok
[08:03] <lesshaste> how do you get thunderbird with lightning support for ubuntu?
[08:04] <kbrooks__> nolimitsoya, whitespace is stripped by bash.
[08:04] <nolimitsoya> kbrooks__, thank you :)
[08:04] <timo901> later guys,playing on GTR 2
[08:04] <kbrooks__> nolimitsoya, but not entirely.
[08:04] <un_operateur> bash doesn't really care about space -- although the commands it encloses might be space-sensitive
[08:05] <nolimitsoya> kbrooks__, meaning?
[08:05] <kbrooks__> nolimitsoya, meaning...
[08:05] <kbrooks__> var=x # good
[08:05] <kbrooks__> var = x # bad
[08:05] <nolimitsoya> kbrooks__, that much is understood :)
[08:06] <kbrooks__> nolimitsoya, :-)
[08:06] <Zaggynl> Anyone knows of a stable usb2 driver?
[08:06] <MetaBookfoziS> hi all
[08:06] <Zaggynl> Mine keeps resetting
[08:07] <MetaBookfoziS> what program can open apassword protected rar file?
[08:07] <Zaggynl> opening will work, extracting not
[08:07] <stefg> !rar-nonfree
[08:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rar-nonfree - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:07] <stefg> !rar
[08:07] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[08:08] <Aardwolf> great, both the refresh rate and network problem solved, thanks :)

[08:09] <gleaner> can I get a precompiled package of liferea feed reader for 6.06 dapper somewhere?
[08:09] <AlexC_> Hey, guys - I've broke Gnome. KDE Killed it. I removed KDE via "sudo aptitude purge kubuntu-desktop" and no the panels in Gnome wont load
[08:10] <AlexC_> when I start the Gnome session it says the panels are already running
[08:10] <gleaner> remove your  ~/.gnome* dirs?
[08:10] <Aardwolf> I have "ubuntu", not "kubuntu" but would like to use KDE, how can I install KDE on it?
[08:10] <AlexC_> Aardwolf: "sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop"
[08:10] <LVEB> hello
[08:10] <stefg> AlexC_: sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop?
[08:11] <AlexC_> Aardwolf: but beware when you uninstall it, it can mess up Gnome ( happened twice to me now )
[08:11] <AlexC_> stefg: ok hold o
[08:11] <gleaner> AlexC_ rm ~./gnome
[08:11] <AlexC_> s/o/on
[08:11] <Aardwolf> not really a problem :)
[08:11] <gleaner> AlexC_ rm -rf~./gnome
[08:11] <AlexC_> gleaner: why would I want to remove my gnome folder?
[08:11] <gleaner> no sorry
[08:11] <gleaner> maybe something  corrupt
[08:12] <LVEB> can i use ubuntu with 450mhz and 160mo of ram
[08:12] <AlexC_> gleaner: yeah but that would get rid of all my config files too, wont it
[08:12] <gleaner> I had that happen to me and I wiped the  .gnome folders and rest it all
[08:12] <gleaner> yeah
[08:12] <lesshaste> how do you get thunderbird with lightning support for ubuntu?
[08:12] <gleaner> its a painful way togo
[08:12] <AlexC_> well I'd rather that not happen =)
[08:12] <oscar_1101> i am trying to get azureus going in ubuntu, i am having NAT problems, i think i have configured my modem and acess points to correctly virtual server the ports over, still not going, do i need to unblock a port with iptables or is that just crazy? - cheers
[08:12] <gleaner> does anyone know where can I get a precompiled package of liferea feed reader for 6.06 dapper somewhere?
[08:13] <gleaner> help
[08:13] <teclo> what tool can I use to easily configure which WLAN access point I want to use ?
[08:13] <LVEB> i think it's better than i use xubuntu
[08:13] <Aardwolf> aptitude can't find any packages named kubuntu-desktop, nor "kde"
[08:13] <Aardwolf> do I have to enable some repositories maybe?
[08:13] <LVEB> ?

[08:19] <anonymousmoose> So it's really supposed to take 5 minutes? Because it's taken more than two hours. Sorry for such a noobish question. Also, if I have it running in the other workspace, will it actually be doing anything if I'm not using that workspace?
