[12:26] <Snakehit> Is there a program or tool in ubuntu that gives you all the information about your laptop. I mean, chipset ect. Like Sandra on windows
[12:26] <snoops> Snakehit lspci ?
[12:27] <jujimufu> when I do "apt-get install xserver-xorg-dev" I get this error : http://pastebin.ca/135981
[12:27] <Snakehit> Yes i did that lspci -v | less
[12:27] <Snakehit> but that doent gives my wireless card
[12:27] <cactus_sediento> i installed kubuntu over ubuntu.....does anybody know how to switch between kde and gnome?
[12:27] <Snakehit> i mean, i dont know what type it is
[12:27] <ompaul> Snakehit, sudo lshw
[12:27] <due> cactus_sediento: In the login screen, there's an "options" button down the bottom left hand side. Click on it, and select "select session".
[12:28] <cactus_sediento> thanks due
[12:28] <alek> hi
[12:30] <alek> i've just changed my network card in my second PC and ubuntu (6.06 server) didnt detect it
[12:30] <Snakehit> ok
[12:30] <NickGarvey> how much detail does your wikipage on launchpad need to be for you to become an ubuntu member
[12:30] <NickGarvey> ?
[12:30] <Snakehit> ompaul, that gives me a bit of information
[12:30] <Snakehit> but not the correct one i think
[12:30] <babo> how do I check what groups 'user' is in ?
[12:30] <Snakehit> it says :
[12:30] <Snakehit>    description: Wireless interface
[12:30] <Snakehit>                 product: Intel Corporation
[12:30] <Snakehit>                 vendor: Intel Corporation
[12:30] <Snakehit>                 physical id: 0
[12:30] <alek> how do the hardware detection?
[12:31] <ompaul> dont paste
[12:31] <Snakehit> ok sorry
[12:31] <ompaul> use paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:31] <Snakehit> excuse me
[12:31] <Snakehit> ok
[12:32] <babo> seriously though, how do i check which groups user is in ?
[12:32] <NickGarvey> babo: usermod -g GROUP USER
[12:32] <MenZa> !repeat > babo
[12:32] <babo> groups
[12:32] <Snakehit> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20864
[12:32] <babo> K ... cool thanks ...
[12:32] <ompaul> Snakehit, is this to configure a wireless card?
[12:33] <Snakehit> i don't know, im new at ubuntu
[12:33] <Snakehit> this is the information i get about my card
[12:33] <ompaul> Snakehit, why are you trying to identify it?
[12:33] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: hahah, you must know what you are trying to do
[12:33] <Snakehit> to find the correct drivers
[12:33] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: like, "what is it that you are trying to do" is what ompaul asked
[12:33] <alek> babo: do you know, your nick is abusive synonym of women? =]
[12:33] <alek> in polish;]
[12:34] <Snakehit> i need to find the drivers to get it working
[12:34] <NickGarvey> "British Association Of Balloon Operators"?
[12:34] <ompaul> Snakehit,  so if you said you want to do that you should start here  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=wireless&titlesearch=Titles
[12:34] <babo> alek: in Korean it means 'idiot' ... :-)
[12:34] <ompaul> !wireless > Snakehit
[12:34] <alek> babo: lol
[12:34] <Snakehit> i did
[12:34] <Snakehit> but i don't know what card i have exactly
[12:35] <ompaul> Snakehit, the bot also sent you a useufl link
[12:35] <Snakehit> i know its a Intel
[12:35] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: lspci should help with that
[12:35] <Snakehit> but what type
[12:35] <Thunderpants> whats the minimum video ram needed to run xgl?
[12:35] <alek> so, how to do the hardware detection in ibintu 606 server? he didnt detected my new network card:(
[12:35] <Snakehit> no NickGarvey, because my wireless card isnt between it
[12:36] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: didn't show it? you sure?
[12:36] <Snakehit> i think so
[12:36] <Snakehit> sec, i paste
[12:36] <NickGarvey> in the pastebin..
[12:36] <Snakehit> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20865
[12:36] <compguy> nevermind me, heh
[12:37] <compguy> me and my uncreative nick.
[12:37] <NickGarvey> compguy: heh, mines worse
[12:37] <compguy> your real name..?
[12:37] <NickGarvey> yup
[12:38] <compguy> hehe.
[12:38] <ompaul> alek, https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ the "book" for the server is there
[12:38] <Snakehit> you see NickGarvey ?
[12:38] <alek> ompaul, thanks
[12:38] <NickGarvey> compguy: which according to esr is good :)
[12:39] <ompaul> Snakehit, plug it in and let the card get identified
[12:39] <Snakehit> on a laptop
[12:39] <NickGarvey> Snakehit: nope, don't see it..
[12:39] <Snakehit> its this Network controller: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 4222 (rev 02), must be
[12:39] <NickGarvey> that says ethernet though
[12:39] <troughton> can some one please tell me how to mount a second hard drive ??
[12:40] <NickGarvey> troughton: mount /dev/hd? /mnt/point
[12:40] <ompaul> troughton, for linux or is it ntfs?
[12:40] <troughton> linux
[12:40] <NickGarvey> troughton: system > administration > disks
[12:40] <troughton> wont mount nick
[12:40] <NickGarvey> no? why not?
[12:41] <troughton> dont know i tell it to mount it dose nothing
[12:41] <NickGarvey> troughton: sure it isn't mounted?
[12:41] <raveneye> snakehit try lspci -vv
[12:42] <Captain_Fleming> Hi guys...
[12:42] <ompaul> troughton, sudo mkdir /otherdisk ; sudo mount /dev/hd?? /otherdisk
[12:42] <Captain_Fleming> Have this small problem...
[12:42] <troughton> yes i cant gain access i have formated in ext 2 and 3 with no success
[12:42] <ompaul> troughton, do you know what the values of ?? are
[12:42] <Captain_Fleming> My grub is on the wrong disk...
[12:42] <Captain_Fleming> Using dualboot...
[12:43] <tion> hey, anyone who knows the "normal" size of usr/lib and usr/share? I know it varies, but is it like 100 mb og 1gb?
[12:43] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: try a boot cd to fix things up, do you know how to do that?
[12:43] <troughton> yes ompaul will try thanks
[12:43] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: I am on my boot cd as we speak...
[12:43] <Snakehit> raveneye, that gives me nothing more
[12:43] <Snakehit> just more information
[12:43] <Snakehit> but no type
[12:43] <NickGarvey> tion: my lib is 307
[12:44] <NickGarvey> tion: and my share is.. 214
[12:44] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: But I really have no clue how to do that, without wrecking my MBR which now hosts a win32 boot sector...
[12:44] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: what boot cd?
[12:44] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: The newest from ubuntu
[12:44] <NickGarvey> here, try this
[12:44] <tion> ty nick.. thats what I was afraid of.. my lib is 996 and my share is 875 :S
[12:44] <NickGarvey> !grub > Captain_Fleming
[12:44] <NickGarvey> tion: hehe, mind you this is SUSE 10.1 running KDE
[12:45] <NickGarvey> tion: oh no! its not! thats my no GUI gentoo server
[12:45] <NickGarvey> (damn you ssh)
[12:45] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: I have read those documents...
[12:45] <Captain_Fleming> But my ubuntu is not on my main disk of the bios...
[12:45] <noobie0057> hi I'm having trouble partitioning a usb drive. I can't get windows to recognize the partitions instead I see a folder called .TrashUsername. There are 2 partitions Win Fat32.  Any ideas?
[12:45] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: make it so it is :)
[12:45] <mcphail> tion: my /usr/lib is 1.5G
[12:45] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: or you can edit your grub.conf
[12:45] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Will I be able to boot my win32 then still?
[12:46] <NickGarvey> tion: mine is 1.3
[12:46] <tion> hmm
[12:46] <NickGarvey> tion: and lib is 1GB
[12:46] <mcphail> tion: /usr/share is 1.8
[12:46] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Does that have any use? I mean, it never gets to grub in the first place :-/
[12:46] <NickGarvey> so I win
[12:46] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: oh! do a grub-install /dev/wherever
[12:46] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, thnx :)
[12:46] <Snakehit> you have a tool like netStumbler on ubuntu?
[12:47] <tion> just suddenly ran out of space on my filesystem and I cant seem to find the reason
[12:47] <neildarlow> tion: temporary files?
[12:48] <tion> not in tmp but something in var/cache
[12:48] <tion> but thats just a few hundred mb
[12:49] <afflux> morgen
[12:49] <mcphail> tion: which filesystem?
[12:49] <neildarlow> tion: is it just one partition filled? does du give any hint where they are?
[12:49] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[12:49] <Captain_Fleming> Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
[12:49] <Captain_Fleming> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[12:50] <noobie0057> I'm having trouble partitioning a usb drive. I can't get windows to recognize the partitions instead I see a folder called .TrashUsername. There are 2 partitions Win Fat32.  Any ideas?
[12:50] <tion> mcphail: got / mounted and /home as own partitions (ext3)
[12:51] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: oh.. let me think.. how did I fix that..
[12:51] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: I had the same problem
[12:51] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey:  :)
[12:51] <mcphail> tion: maybe you have used all of the allocated inodes with multiple small files?
[12:51] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Take your time, no real rush here :)
[12:51] <firstknight> Hi, my ubuntu has hostname, named 'hulahula'. But when my windows xp in the same lan try to ping by name, that is 'hulahula', it said unknown host. Ping with ubuntu ip address works fine. How do I make it work?
[12:52] <tion> neildarlow: using filelight and its usr/lib and /share that is the largest
[12:52] <aixing> Ati gfx dual screen anyone have this setup? I need help getting mine to work
[12:52] <neildarlow> firstknight: your system must be resolvable to Windows via DNS or WINS
[12:53] <neildarlow> firstknight: simplest solution is to configure and run samba
[12:53] <tion> mcphail: maybe.. but isnt there a very hight number of inodes? cant have used all:P
[12:53] <firstknight> neildarlow, oke. thx
[12:53] <userdb> hello , is there in default dba group?
[12:53] <userdb> in ubuntu groups?
[12:53] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: cp /proc/mounts /etc/mtab :)
[12:54] <Captain_Fleming> ok, one moment (with sudo I assume?
[12:54] <Captain_Fleming> )
[12:54] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: yup, lets hope nothing breaks heh
[12:54] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: live cd though so reboot if it does heh
[12:54] <mcphail> tion: not really - you can set inode density when creating an ext2/3 filesystem.
[12:54] <Captain_Fleming> Well, I am on a live cd...
[12:54] <Captain_Fleming> And it is a fresh install :)
[12:55] <Captain_Fleming> So, there is nothing to break :P
[12:55] <mcphail> tion: the system defaults to an "average" amount, but if you have multiple small files it can use them up quickly
[12:55] <neildarlow> Captain_Fleming: wait until the CD melts :)
[12:55] <Captain_Fleming> neildarlow: I have 5 of those :P
[12:55] <tion> mcphail: I dont have that many files on my system yet.. not that long since I reinstalled ubuntu
[12:56] <mcphail> tion: ok. Probably not then
[12:56] <tion> but I think I have a lot of kde stuff on my system
[12:56] <neildarlow> tion: du filesystem |less
[12:57] <greenman7> How can my linux server suddenly hijack my intranet domain abc.local when the domain it uses it abc-net.local
[12:57] <neildarlow> tion: and look for big numbers
[12:57] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ grub-install /dev/sda
[12:57] <Captain_Fleming> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[12:57] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Did I need to copy those of the live cd, or those of my ubuntu installation?
[12:57] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: damn, um, mount /dev/sda first then
[12:57] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: not sure
[12:58] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: It is already mounted on /mnt
[12:58] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: no idea then.. :(
[12:58] <TCK0> i want to convert a *.mpg to a *.mov .. any linux tools to do this ?
[12:58] <cacs> !list
[12:58] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[12:58] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, thnx anyway...
[12:58] <Thunderpants> Captain_Fleming, what partition is ur root on?
[12:58] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Now I am going for the hard way :) (reindexing the bios drives :P)
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> Thunderpants: /dev/sda1
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> Thunderpants: /dev/sda5 == swap
[12:59] <NickGarvey> Captain_Fleming: heh, I'd rather do that then mess with this stuff heh
[12:59] <Thunderpants> then grub-install /dev/sda1
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> NickGarvey: Too much work -_-'
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ grub-install /dev/sda1
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[12:59] <Captain_Fleming> Prob. need to add sudo -_-'
[12:59] <jkelly2005> TCK0: ffmpeg can probably do it
[01:00] <Thunderpants> aye
[01:00] <Captain_Fleming> Nope, same thing (but with the sudo before grub-install)
[01:00] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, now I'm going to reindex my drives with the bios..
[01:00] <Captain_Fleming> I'll let you know if it worked or not :P
[01:01] <Captain_Fleming> TTYL guys :)
[01:01] <noobie0057> anyone know about partitioning a usb hard drive?
[01:01] <tion> neildarlow: get the same info from filelight
[01:02] <mcphail> noobie0057: just use cfdisk
[01:02] <noobie0057> used cfdisk, windows could not recognize it,, I want to be able to use it on bith windows and linux
[01:03] <noobie0057> cfdisk, and linux correctly recognize the usb drive, windows sees a directory called .TrashUsername
[01:04] <cactus_sediento> an open question to all the room:  Ubuntu or Kubuntu...why?
[01:05] <jrib> cactus_sediento: ubuntu if you like gnome, kubuntu if you like kde.  Install both on your system and use what you like most
[01:05] <noobie0057> perhaps the cylinders heads or tracks should be altered? or the FAT I chose was wrong (Win Fat32)?
[01:06] <TMT[fi] > cactus_sediento: I don't know is there really other difference than ui but i say ubuntu because Gnome is nicer to use.
[01:06] <noobie0057> One partition size was 8 mb is that too small ?
[01:06] <mcphail> noobie0057: i'm trying to remember, but i think usb drives are often formatted fat16. Could be wrong...
[01:06] <ziottt> hi everybody
[01:07] <troughton> when i use the run command it predicts my entry where will i find the text file listing the commands ??
[01:07] <ziottt> I tried to burn audio file .ape on my cd with k3b
[01:07] <ziottt> I found this file k3bmonkeyaudioplugin-3.0.tar.bz2
[01:07] <ziottt> but when am going to compile it
[01:08] <ziottt> doesnt work with "make"
[01:08] <noobie0057> mcphail: I'll try it.  Thanks
[01:08] <tion> anyone here playing poker?
[01:08] <ziottt> this is the result: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[01:08] <TMT[fi] > cactus_sediento: why did you ask only about ubuntu and kubuntu? They are not only variations ;)
[01:08] <ziottt> anybody had the same prob before?
[01:08] <mcphail> noobie0057: the other thing to try would be to format it in windows, then mount it in linux and see which filesystem was used
[01:09] <jrib> troughton: where is this run command?  Is this in your terminal?
[01:09] <mcphail> ziottt: you get this when ./configure fails
[01:09] <mcphail> ziottt: it should have give an error message
[01:09] <ziottt> hang on I show u in pvt
[01:09] <noobie0057> mcphail: that's a good idea, what I really want is 2 partitions and as far as I can tell this is impossible to do in windows (unless I boot off of it, install win 98, or buy a 3rd party tool)
[01:10] <noobie0057> my goal is to make a encrypted drive, 1 small partition for a decryption program
[01:10] <mcphail> noobie0057: you can do this in linux when you have worked out how windows likes it's partitions made
[01:10] <cactus_sediento> TMT[fi] : i installed kubuntu over ubuntu....trying both....found gnome nice and lighter than kde...and now i am wondering if there is any feature of kde that i havent see and also if it is posible to uninstall in a simple way kubuntu
[01:11] <noobie0057> mcphail: thanks for the brainstorm,, I'll give it a shot and tell you how it goes...
[01:11] <mcphail> ok
[01:11] <jrib> cactus_sediento: how did you install kubuntu?
[01:11] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, I'm back :)
[01:11] <Captain_Fleming> And guess what :-:
[01:11] <Captain_Fleming> -_
[01:11] <Captain_Fleming> -_-'
[01:12] <cactus_sediento> jrib from ubuntu..installing all the packets of kubuntu desktop from Synaptics
[01:12] <ziottt> mcphail, did u get it?
[01:12] <Captain_Fleming> !nvidia Captain_Fleming
[01:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidia Captain_Fleming - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:12] <mcphail> ziottt: sorry, get what?
[01:13] <ziottt> I paste the error in the pvt win
[01:13] <jrib> cactus_sediento: easiest way imo is to remove the libqt3-mt package.  That should remove all of the kde things.  You could also remove the kubuntu-desktop package and use deborphan too I think
[01:13] <waspius> hello..anyone know how i can make some buttons on my laptop work?

[01:17] <sladen> phaero: don't remove the usplash packages.  just remove 'splash' from the command line
[01:17] <mcphail> ziottt: you haven't installed a compiler. "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[01:17] <jrib> Captain_Fleming: ubotu should have sent you instructions for installing the nvidia drivers if you typed:  /msg ubotu nvidia
[01:17] <Captain_Fleming> Indeed, thnx jrib
[01:17] <ziottt> ok tnx
[01:18] <jenda> Sound doesn't work in flash in firefox... what can i do about that?
[01:18] <mcphail> ziottt: (or rather, you haven't installed the compiler properly)
[01:18] <hyperstream> is there any ways i can take say 3 avi's and convert them to dvd ? (with a menu etc where you can choose which of the 3 avis(converted to dvd) ??
[01:18] <jrib> Captain_Fleming: the nvidia drivers are in the restricted repository.  The commercial repository is different, I'll send you the link for the repos where you can read more
[01:19] <jrib> !repos > Captain_Fleming
[01:19] <hyperstream> bah
[01:19] <hyperstream> windoze time :x
[01:19] <mcphail> hyperstream: there is a prog called "any2dvd", but i haven't had much success with it
[01:19] <hyperstream> hmm
[01:19] <Captain_Fleming> jrib: I know about that ^-^
[01:19] <ziottt> mcphail, I try to install the build-essential stuff then we'll see what's coming out

[01:21] <Captain_Fleming> Running update now...
[01:21] <Captain_Fleming> Cannot install something atm :(
[01:21] <noobie0057> I'm back, (usb partition problem) in different areas windows reports different things, sometimes 1 drive of the complete size, sometimes 2 drives of correct sizes, sometimes just the first partition of the full size
[01:22] <Captain_Fleming> noobie0057: what have you used to partition the usb disk?
[01:22] <tuxtux> ciao
[01:22] <argunda> which is more lightweight? ubuntu or kubuntu?
[01:22] <Captain_Fleming> xubuntu ^^
[01:22] <neildarlow> noobie0057: have you just tried one primary partition on the device? perhaps windows is braindead
[01:23] <Captain_Fleming> neildarlow: you know windoze is braindead...
[01:23] <Captain_Fleming> Or at least ms is...
[01:23] <noobie0057> used cfdisk to partition it
[01:23] <cactus_sediento> in my short experience....ubuntu
[01:23] <neildarlow> Captain_Fleming: i know but M$ doesn't
[01:23] <Captain_Fleming> :P
[01:23] <RedGhost> Yes let's hate on Microsoft because it is a large corporation that charges for its software.
[01:23] <jrib> argunda: ubuntu by a hair, but if you are looking for lightweight, xubuntu is probably a better option
[01:23] <RedGhost> Aren't we cool.
[01:23] <noobie0057> 2 primarys,, I think this could be the problem
[01:24] <Captain_Fleming> RedGhost: That is not why I 'hate' windows..
[01:24] <Captain_Fleming> Or ms..
[01:24] <neildarlow> noobie0057: i've never seen more than one partition on a usb device
[01:24] <RedGhost> Why then?
[01:24] <Captain_Fleming> For that matter... I do not hate ms or windows...
[01:24] <RedGhost> The only thing that is even semi-bad about Microsoft is the licensing issues.
[01:24] <Captain_Fleming> You confuse humour (my humour) with hate is here...
[01:25] <Captain_Fleming> I find it funny to laugh with those things...
[01:25] <avis> good morning
[01:25] <noobie0057> I don't really understand primarys,, I though a drive could have 4 primaries,, then extended allows more than 4. Is this not correct?
[01:25] <RedGhost> Well any and every Non-Windows based channel is nothing but "M$ and Windoze" and it does get tiresome.
[01:25] <Captain_Fleming> noobie0057: correct ;)
[01:25] <neildarlow> Captain_Fleming: i dislike the "best ever windows" with each release but the same old security vulnerabilities hell
[01:25] <justin_> How do you start GNUpg it is not in my XFCE start menu??
[01:25] <argunda> jrib, if I have 512mb will kubuntu run fast?
[01:25] <avis> 4 primary partitions per drive you usually reserve primary partitions for core operating system
[01:26] <Captain_Fleming> RedGhost: Just so you do not understand me wrong...
[01:26] <avis> or so i've been taught in the windows world.
[01:26] <neildarlow> justin_: you use gpg from the commandline or it integrates with email clients etc.
[01:26] <jrib> argunda: it should run fine
[01:26] <Captain_Fleming> RedGhost: I just say 'windoze', because if you pronounce it correctly in my language, it is quite funny :P
[01:26] <mcphail> justin_: you could use seahorse
[01:26] <RedGhost> argunda when I had 512mb both Kubuntu and Ubuntu ran fine.
[01:26] <argunda> what do you mean fine o-O
[01:26] <Captain_Fleming> I have 380mb, and ubuntu runs...
[01:27] <argunda> ok
[01:27] <RedGhost> No lag, No issues.
[01:27] <justin_> neildarlow: ok command "gpg"?
[01:27] <RedGhost> "fine." :)
[01:27] <Captain_Fleming> But I'm going to download & install fluxbox :)
[01:27] <neildarlow> justin_: yes
[01:27] <justin_> mcphail: Is seahorse compatible with existing PGP keys?
[01:27] <justin_> Captain_Fleming: Fluxbox is nice :D - superlightweight hehe
[01:27] <argunda> does the Enlightenment Windows Manager use less memory than KDE and Gnome?
[01:27] <neildarlow> justin_: it found mine :)
[01:27] <justin_> neildarlow: :) I'll give it a look thnx
[01:28] <avis> justin do you know if a fresh install of fluxbox will import all your gnome and kde apps over from gnome/xubuntu ?
[01:28] <neildarlow> argunda: you're not comparing like-for-like. you mean does Enlightenment use less memory than kwin or metacity
[01:28] <avis> ack !  i'm running XGL :/  nevermind.
[01:28] <mcphail> justin_: yes
[01:29] <neildarlow> argunda: KDE and GNOME are desktop environments. Englightenment, kwin and metacity are window managers
[01:29] <argunda> oh ok
[01:29] <argunda> :D
[01:29] <justin_> avis: It will have most of your apps in it's right click menu, yes.
[01:29] <Samuli^> enlightenment is desktop enviroment.
[01:29] <argunda> o.O
[01:30] <argunda> does enlightenment have it's own file manager?
[01:30] <RedGhost> argunda I think Xfce4 uses less memory than Gnome or KDE but I am not sure.
[01:30] <alex116> yes
[01:30] <alfred> Two things happened to my Ubuntu 5.10 in the last few days.
[01:30] <Samuli^> xfce4 is very nice.
[01:30] <neildarlow> Samuli^: it's evolved into one but still doesn't compare to KDE or GNOME
[01:30] <argunda> RedGhost, yea it did last time I tried it but I didnt like Xfce
[01:30] <Samuli^> I'm using xfce4 with metacity :)
[01:30] <Samuli^> looks exactly like gnome, only lighter.
[01:31] <Samuli^> and thunar has have to be the best file manager around.
[01:31] <alex116> yes gnome with a crappier file manager
[01:31] <RedGhost> if its about aesthetics use Gnome :D
[01:31] <Samuli^> -have
[01:31] <Snakehit> does anyone know a program to see all accesspoints
[01:31] <Samuli^> alex116, nautilus is the WORST file manager.
[01:31] <Samuli^> unstable and a resource hog.
[01:31] <argunda> nautilius comes with Gnome right?
[01:31] <Samuli^> yes.
[01:31] <alex116> what do you suggest samuli^?
[01:31] <argunda> what does KDE come with?
[01:32] <alex116> konquerer
[01:32] <Samuli^> alex116, sudo apt-get install thunar :)
[01:32] <alex116> i'll try it
[01:32] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, see you guys in a sec.
[01:32] <argunda> how does konquerer compare to nautilis?
[01:32] <alex116> konquerer is a webbrowser as well I think
[01:32] <alex116> but I dont know much about it
[01:32] <alex116> best to try it out
[01:32] <neildarlow> 3 filemanagers... 2 window managers... and a partridge in a pear tree :)
[01:32] <alfred> An update to Open Office, resulted in Write, not being able to accept more than three Characters, before freezing my computer. Does anyone have a fix for this, to do a clean uninstall, and then install a previous version?
[01:32] <Samuli^> konqueror is great too.
[01:33] <argunda> Samuli^, thanks I think I will try Kubuntu
[01:34] <neildarlow> Samuli^: most of KDE is great e.g. konqueror, K3B, digikam, kooka...
[01:34] <camcorder> hi
[01:34] <Samuli^> neildarlow, true.
[01:34] <camcorder> does anyone know if firefox in ubuntu patched for using gtkspell
[01:35] <alfred> The second problem was that there was a Multiplied Block error during Boot up that needs to be fixed manually, and I'm not sure how to go about it! Ubuntu 5.10 will now not boot up!
[01:35] <RawSewage> did anyone's fonts change the last update
[01:35] <Samuli^> argunda, you know that you can have both gnome and kde on your install right?
[01:35] <alex116> hey you're right thunar is neat
[01:35] <Samuli^> alex116 :)
[01:36] <neildarlow> camcorder: where do you use a spellchecker in a web browser?
[01:36] <Samuli^> It's a lot like nautilus, only better :)
[01:36] <argunda> Samuli^, last time I tried ubuntu and used Gnome I didnt like it
[01:36] <Samuli^> argunda, ok.
[01:36] <argunda> Samuli^, but it was mostly because of Nautilus which used a lot of memory
[01:36] <argunda> >=[
[01:36] <camcorder> neildarlow, good question, but does it use gtktext for input texts etc?
[01:36] <finite9> Need help: Cannot burn DVDs with cdrecord!  Forums are awash with threads, but no solution.
[01:36] <Samuli^> argunda, so you don't have ubuntu on your computer anymore?
[01:37] <camcorder> gtk widgets I mean, I doubt that vanilla firefox uses gtk widgets
[01:37] <argunda> Samuli^, no I had to get rid of it
[01:37] <neildarlow> camcorder: probably. i don't examine things to that level :)
[01:37] <argunda> at the time
[01:37] <Samuli^> ok.
[01:37] <dpupp> what does this mean: mrv8k_init_one: return -2 mrv8k probe of 0000:01:08.0 failed with error 2. (whats error 2?)
[01:37] <justin_> Hmm, how do I add seahorse to my XFCE menu?
[01:38] <RawSewage> Did anyone's fonts change?
[01:38] <dpupp> fonts change? not here. all the same.
[01:38] <RawSewage> this is strange
[01:38] <alex116> anyone using moblock? I want to remove http blocking and need some help with scripting
[01:39] <finite9> No-one else having problems to burn DVDs with cdrecord?
[01:40] <alfred> I use Kb3, which is an excellent cd dvd recorder program, as good as Nero in windows!
[01:41] <finite9> k3b uses cdrecord as well in background, so that wouldnt help
[01:41] <neildarlow> i'm just about to try burning a DVD with GnomeBaker
[01:41] <dpupp> im trying to uninstall a program i installed with dpkg... im doing: sudo dpkg -P ndis* (and its giving me you must specify packages by their own name" ...
[01:42] <finite9> I use Gnomebaker (which uses cdrecord) but burning with Gnomebaker spits out several errors.  There are many suggestions on the forums but none work.  Both K3B and Gnomebaker use cdrecord as the underlying burning utility
[01:43] <dpupp> never mind.  ^_^ i just had to say  dpkg -P ndiswrapper-utils instead. ^_^
[01:43] <finite9> burning CDs works perfectly.  When trying to burn a DVD-RW or DVD+RW or when trying to import previous DVD session, I get errors
[01:45] <alfred> I've burned all the different formats of cd dvd media, on Kb3 and did not have any errors!
[01:46] <finite9> alfred: what version of (k)ubuntu do you have and what kernel?
[01:47] <greenman7> How can my linux server suddenly hijack my intranet domain abc.local when the domain it uses it abc-net.local
[01:47] <alfred> I tried the new Ubuntu 6.06 but found it had a few bugs, so I went back to using Ubuntu 5.10 with the latest Kernel.
[01:48] <cactus_sediento> jrlb: could you please repeat me your suggestion for uninstalling kubuntu? i lost the data...
[01:48] <FirstStrike> dapper has been great for me. what bugs did you find?
[01:48] <FirstStrike> and did you report them?
[01:48] <finite9> yeah, thats the problem alfred: Breezy Badger has no issues, but somewhere during the Dapper Flights, cdrecord broke :(
[01:49] <neildarlow> finite9: don't you use growisofs to burn dvds?
[01:49] <finite9> In Dapper, there are serious issues with CD/DVD burning
[01:49] <jrib> cactus_sediento: easiest way imo is to remove the libqt3-mt package.  That should remove all of the kde things.  You could also remove the kubuntu-desktop package and use deborphan too I think
[01:49] <Dani_Filth> Hi there
[01:50] <Dani_Filth> how i can have animation with clearlooks engine ?
[01:50] <operative> hi Dani_Filth
[01:50] <FirstStrike> hmm, i haven't tried dvd burning yet
[01:50] <FirstStrike> i should try it out
[01:50] <Ng> I've burnt DVDs fine using nautilus
[01:50] <cactus_sediento> thanks again jrlb :)
[01:50] <Ng> specific failings with cdrecord should go to https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/cdrtools/+bugs
[01:51] <finite9> neildarlow: no idea.  all I know is that Gnomebaker spits out a big dialogue full of warnings and errors about cdrecord being at fault, and running 'hdparm /dev/hdc' gives errors
[01:51] <richard_> can anyone send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[01:51] <jrib> cactus_sediento: np, it's jrib with an i by the way, in case you want my hilight to work :)
[01:51] <richard_> i am trying to restore the original font settings
[01:52] <alan__> hello
[01:52] <finite9> Ng: Apparently other ppl have burnt ISOs ok with nautilus, but I find Nautilus too limiting, so I use Gnomebaker.  I admit to not having tried Nautilus to see if it has same issue
[01:52] <neildarlow> Ng: haven't tried nautilus for DVD burning. does it allow control of the process or is it just drag-and-go?
[01:52] <finite9> drag and go
[01:52] <Ng> finite9: if you are getting specific and repeatable errors that appear to be bugs, please report them
[01:53] <neildarlow> finite9: thought so. just as well i installed GnomeBaker then :)
[01:53] <finite9> Ng: there are many posts on the Ubuntu forums about the problems with Dapper and DVD burning, and several posts mention that bugs are already filed re: these issues
[01:53] <finite9> seems to be no fix in sight
[01:53] <dpupp> im trying to follow instructions here: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Ubuntu#If_it_doesn.27t_work. and one of the steps say to run "sudo make install." but im getting sudo: make: command not found. any idea?
[01:54] <FirstStrike> finalbeta: i'm burning a dvd right now with nautilus
[01:54] <FirstStrike> er finite9
[01:54] <finite9> dpupp: you need to install build-essentials package to get make
[01:54] <alfred> At the moment I'm using Ubuntu 6.06 because 5.10 will not boot due to a Block Multiplier error, that needs to be fixed manually
[01:54] <neildarlow> dpupp: you don't have make installed
[01:54] <dpupp> ok thanks
[01:55] <richard_> can anyone send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[01:55] <richard_> or at least tell me how to restore it
[01:55] <neildarlow> dpupp: you probably don't have compilers and required libraries installed either
[01:55] <FirstStrike> i'll try burning a dvd with gnome-baker next
[01:55] <dpupp> thanks that must be the case. Its quite bare at the moment untill i get my network card running...
[01:56] <nikin> hy
[01:56] <finite9> I will try Nautilus when I get home to see if that works, but I have a suspicion that I already tried it a while ago and that wouldn'r burn either.  maybe it has something to do with hardware not being recognised properly (note burning in WinXP has no issues at all - its a dual layer 16x DVD burner)
[01:56] <waspius> this http://rick.vanrein.org/linux/funkey/ is a page i found that tells you how to configure the rest of your keys on your keyboard..i hope it helps
[01:56] <nikin> one of my friends told me about a feature, to set the resolution before booting
[01:57] <nikin> how can i do that?
[01:57] <alfred> I've found that Keep does not work well, and has no Help files, so I do backups in terminal mode with the command line, with includes and excludes, and these can be restored, if you loose something. I store these on a dvd rw.
[01:57] <noobie0057> (usb partition problem) thanks guys I still can't get windows to recognize the second partition. First one works now. A few times I crashed winXP.  I'm going to give up for the night. Thanks again
[01:57] <finite9> neildarlow: what version / kernel do you have??
[01:57] <alienbrain> I know Ubuntu Server comes with mysql 5 by default, but does it also has mysql 4.1 or may be 4.0 also as alternatives?
[01:58] <nikin> i want to set the res so, that the ubuntu boot screen displays in 1024x768
[01:58] <alfred> use the command xres and then the resolution you would like to use before you boot up!
[01:58] <neildarlow> finite9: dapper and 2.6.15-26-686 on an Athlon-XP
[01:59] <nikin> any ideas?
[01:59] <dpupp> ok, whats an install error 2?
[01:59] <fyrestrtr> alienbrain: yes, it does
[01:59] <ChrisNiemy> hi there! will i break my system, when I remove the package "initrd-tools"?
[02:00] <alienbrain> fyrestrtr: great then, I assume it has the same policy for other packages like apache. Thank you.
[02:00] <alfred>  nikin: use the command xres and then the resolution you would like to use before you boot up!
[02:00] <Bassetts> can someone recommend a app to post to my blog from my desktop
[02:01] <neildarlow> finite9: only oddity is probably that my DVD writer isn't configured to use DMA. hdparm doesn't enable it at boot for some reason.
[02:01] <nikin> thx
[02:01] <ChrisNiemy> until dapper "initrd-tools" was in main, now it's in universe and i would like to remove it because of dependencies
[02:01] <yeager> bassetts: drivel?
[02:01] <dpupp> im now getting: cant find kernel build files in /lib/modules/2.6.15-23-386
[02:02] <finite9> neildarlow: me too...Ubuntu 6.06 with all updates, but I usually run 2.6.15-25 kernel, althhough I have tried the -26 kernel and got same errors.  I have an Acer Aspire laptop with a 16x dual layer burner.  It burns CDs fine, but not one DVD.  When I try to import a previous session from a DVD-RW or DVD+RW i get a large dialogue saying that the DVD writing code is missing and that I need to get cdrecord DVDPro from FTP.  This is just a warning and must be i
[02:02] <dpupp> i just install build-essencials.
[02:02] <Bassetts> yeager, doesnt look very usable, i would like something that is pretty much like a text editor and i can format the text with easily
[02:02] <Singkong2005|Syd> Hi... I want to change the icon for an application (Zim). I can change it on the application menu, but how do I change it for the application itself (including what I see when I press ALT+TAB)?
[02:02] <hs_125> i a trying to install firefox ...it is giving this error Errors were encountered while processing:
[02:02] <hs_125>  /var/cache/apt/archives/firefox_1.5.dfsg+<IP_ADDRESS>-0ubuntu6.06.1_i386.deb
[02:02] <hs_125> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[02:02] <nikin> alfred: and where i should put that command?
[02:03] <dpupp> err.... damnit! bad habit of mine of skipping initial first steps... *goes back to re-read instructions*
[02:03] <neildarlow> ChrisNiemy: my recent dapper install doesn't have initrd-tools. you should only need it to build an initrd for a kernel you've built yourself
[02:03] <alfred> nikin: right at the boot up prompt, you type it in then hit enter!
[02:03] <finite9> neildarlow: or maybe its because i use amd64 version of Ubuntu whereas you have i686
[02:04] <nagyv> How could I find out wheather I use arts or alsa? I would like to set up Skype the best possible way. I have already read about dsp_hijacker, but now found a forum (http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=48195) and also a possible kopete integration with a different tip (http://extragear.kde.org/apps/kopete%20skype/) (I use kubuntu, but I think it doesn't make any difference here.)
[02:04] <neildarlow> finite9: ah, you're doing multisession. i haven't tried that.
[02:04] <nikin> i mean, if i want it to be automatic when i start up my system
[02:04] <ChrisNiemy> neildarlow: ok. and after i have this kernel installed and running I don't need it anymore?
[02:04] <hs_125> *.* any help?
[02:05] <neildarlow> ChrisNiemy: until you build a new one no. if you use pre-packaged kernels you won't need it
[02:06] <ChrisNiemy> neildarlow: i currently using a self-compiled kernel
[02:06] <neildarlow> nagyv: cat /dev/sndstat
[02:06] <alfred> nikin: just before the automatic boot up starts, you have the option to put in a command that will change the boot up. you could hit escape , that brings you to a menu in Grub, you can add the command there.
[02:07] <neildarlow> ChrisNiemy: if you use an initrd with it then you'll probably need initrd-tools
[02:07] <Singkong2005|Syd> Anyone know about changing icons for an app?
[02:08] <nikin> alfred: ty
[02:08] <yeager> bassetts: many blogs (such as Wordpress) has a mail->web interface
[02:08] <jrib> Singkong2005|Syd: you can change the icon theme you use
[02:08] <jrib> !themes > Singkong2005|Syd
[02:08] <ChrisNiemy> neildarlow: ok, thanks
[02:10] <neildarlow> brb. gaim preferences tweaking
[02:10] <whadar> what could cause the desktop to disappear? all i see is that brown background with no icons and the right click is not functioning....
[02:10] <lakbu> hi.
[02:11] <lakbu> how can i share internet connection to other computers?
[02:11] <FirstStrike> lakbu: yes
[02:11] <FirstStrike> buy a router
[02:12] <lakbu> FirstStrike, can i make my ubuntu box a router? masquerade?
[02:12] <FirstStrike> yea, you could set it up as a server.
[02:12] <lakbu> FirstStrike, any helpful links?
[02:12] <FirstStrike> no cdrecord issues here
[02:13] <neildarlo1> FirstStrike: been there, done that. works... :)
[02:13] <corndog_> first time ubuntu user here... is there any reason it didnt ask me for a root password on install? does it set up a default?
[02:13] <playtime3> hi i have just enable the plugin for Auto replace, but it seems to be not working
[02:13] <fyrestrtr> !root > corndog_
[02:13] <FirstStrike> lakbu: http://ubuntulinuxhowto.blogspot.com/2006/06/setup-your-computer-to-be-router.html
[02:13] <corndog_> thnx
[02:13] <neildarlo1> corndog_: ubuntu uses sudo. the user you created has root rights with sudo
[02:14] <lakbu> thanks
[02:14] <playtime3> hi i have just enable the plugin for Auto replace, but it seems to be not working? anyone know how to fix it?
[02:14] <playtime3> I mean kope
[02:14] <playtime3> I mean kopete
[02:15] <fyrestrtr> Lepingbeta: two options, edit the menu icon and add that to it, or edit the firefox launch script itself. Which one would you like?
[02:15] <PingunZ> hey, how can I make a gnome-terminal automatically start up when I boot. and use a specific terminal-profile, and be maximised on a specific desktop ?
[02:16] <quiet> if you want to boot to a terminal... why not just boot to console?
[02:16] <fyrestrtr> PingunZ: ctrl+alt+f1
[02:16] <PingunZ> no quiet I want the Console on one of my 4 desktops
[02:16] <whadar> i get this on the log: Error opening /dev/wacom : No such file or directory
[02:17] <ubuntu> hi
[02:17] <fyrestrtr> PingunZ: the first two I know how, the second two I don't think are possible.
[02:17] <whadar> and i don't have a desktop!
[02:17] <fyrestrtr> whadar: everyone gets that error (unless you have a wacom tablet)
[02:17] <whadar> fyrestrtr: oh... so it is not that :)
[02:17] <jrib> PingunZ: system > preferences > startup, 'man gnome-terminal' for the switch you need to use a profile, for the full screen on a specific workspace checkout devilspie (but this may take some research on your part to get it to only affect that one terminal, maybe set a custom title)
[02:17] <whadar> what may cause desktop absence?
[02:17] <ubuntu> hi
[02:18] <greenman7> How can my linux server suddenly hijack my intranet domain abc.local when the domain it uses it abc-net.local
[02:18] <fyrestrtr> greenman7: answer is simple, it doesn't.
[02:18] <PingunZ> ty jrib
[02:18] <fyrestrtr> whadar: don't know.
[02:18] <Lepingbeta> fyrestrtr:How to add "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1" to the firefox launching script?
[02:19] <fyrestrtr> Lepingbeta: gksudo gedit /usr/lib/firefox/firefox
[02:19] <quiet> greenman7, because you have you dns/dhcp server set for authoritative control over abc.local
[02:20] <ubuntu> hi
[02:20] <greenman7> quiet: even though the domain name of the mailserver is abc-net.local?
[02:20] <FirstStrike> dvd #2 has been baked~
[02:20] <quiet> mail server is not a dns server.
[02:20] <xnszx> does anyone have mythtv install on ubuntu setup?
[02:20] <quiet> is this a windows domain greenman7 ?
[02:20] <greenman7> There is a windows domain and dns server
[02:21] <quiet> that is why...  the windows domain is probably abc-net.local
[02:21] <greenman7> but the mailserver has a static ip and uses the windows dns server to forward requests on
[02:21] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: thanks, useful to know... but changing themes  doesn't change the app icon
[02:21] <quiet> the domain is abc.local
[02:21] <dpupp> ok im really confused. im looking at my lspci and im seeing two devices as wifi when i only have 1 wifi device....  broadcom wireles controller, and a ethernet controller with a marvel chip... thed marvel device is the one im having issues installing, but the other one im certain its a wires card, but its coming back as wifi?.... really odd. its showing up as a PCMCIA card in the network tools gui.
[02:21] <greenman7> the windows domain is just abc.local
[02:21] <Lepingbeta> fyrestrtr:Thanks for your help!
[02:22] <quiet> greenman7, there's your answer...
[02:22] <quiet> active directory REQUIRES that any domain controller also be a DNS server.
[02:22] <quiet> so your DNS server is authoritative to abc.local
[02:22] <quiet> it's nothint to worry about.
[02:22] <quiet> nothing*
[02:23] <quiet> if you want to share to the other domain name, you just specify it in your samba config.
[02:23] <jrib> Singkong2005|Sy1: you need to change the icon set used, you can click on "theme details" in the theme preferences dialog, and see that you can change the icons, border, and controls.  If you use a custom icon set that gets installed to your ~/.icons (or just copy one of the ones you already have there), then you can just navigate the icon directory and edit the icons you want
[02:23] <greenman7> it just seems to have happened! After the mailserver was up and running for a couple of months - perhaps when i restarted the windows server a month ago it picked up the other server
[02:23] <finalbeta> !mount ftp
[02:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mount ftp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:24] <greenman7> i don't want the two to be connected especially - i just want abc.local to go to the windows machine and to be able to login to webmin on the other server
[02:24] <finalbeta> can ubuntu do this? Mount an ftp?
[02:24] <jpjacobs> ftpfs
[02:24] <finalbeta> thnx
[02:24] <quiet> greenman7, well, you can specify to override the other DNS domain name, if you just want to change it.
[02:24] <whadar> how can i start a clean ubuntu session, without previous stuff open?
[02:24] <greenman7> is that in windows or in linux
[02:25] <quiet> linux
[02:25] <quiet> i assume you are talking about a ubuntu server?
[02:25] <greenman7> yes
[02:25] <richard_> can anyone send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[02:25] <richard_> or at least tell me how to restore it
[02:26] <quiet> greenman7, what doesit say in /etc/hosts ?
[02:26] <hkBst> the (x)ubuntu kernel seems to be missing the /proc/config.gz. Is there anywhere to get the kernel config?
[02:26] <erUSUL> hkBst: in /boot/
[02:26] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib:I see - that changes the look of icons for  the file browsers and gedit... but not for applications like Zim, that I'm trying to change.
[02:27] <greenman7> Quiet: I have <IP_ADDRESS> mailserver.abc-net.co.uk and then lines like ::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
[02:27] <jrib> Singkong2005|Sy1: oh, you wan tot change the icons in the menu?
[02:27] <chendo> what's the easiest way to setup a NAT server on ubuntu server?
[02:27] <chendo> like, router-style
[02:27] <chendo> with DHCP and all
[02:27] <quiet> greenman7, what does 'dnsdomainname' return?
[02:27] <fyrestrtr> chendo: install dhcp-server, install shorewall and set it up.
[02:28] <greenman7> abc-net.co.uk
[02:28] <chendo> fyrestrtr: i'm kinda stuck on the whole 'zones' part of the shorewall thing
[02:28] <chendo> and i don't have a browser working cause i don't have NAT ;/
[02:28] <quiet> greenman7, and where are you getting that the domain changed to abc.local??
[02:28] <chendo> so i'm irssing into my box ;x
[02:28] <fyrestrtr> chendo: stuck how?
[02:28] <hkBst> erUSUL: do you have to be booted from the cd for this to work?
[02:29] <greenman7> is not changed but when you go to abc.local thats supposed to be on the windows machine but its pointing to the linux one as I get an apache message
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> a zone is just a virtual grouping of ip addresses.
[02:29] <dpupp> ... is it possible that wifi can also use "eth" names? ... im used to seeing wlan instead
[02:29] <greenman7> If you turn the linux machine off then it points to the files on the windows machine correctly
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> dpupp: yes, on my machine eth1 is my wifi card.
[02:29] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: I've changed the icon in the menu, and where I put it on the panel next to the menus...
[02:29] <chendo> fyrestrtr: i've got no clue what a zonefile is
[02:29] <chendo> but hold up, looking at man page now
[02:29] <jrib> Singkong2005|Sy1: s/wan tot/want to
[02:30] <quiet> greenman7, then THAT is just a DNS issue.
[02:30] <greenman7> But i haven't changed any dns settings
[02:30] <quiet> well SOMETHING/SOMEONE did.
[02:30] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: (continued) but I'd like it to be consistent... like if I press ALT+TAB to switch between programs, cuz now it shows the original (awful, stress-disorder inducing) icon.
[02:30] <dpupp> is it normal for pci card to show as PCMCIA in the network setting GUI ?
[02:31] <ardchoille> Just installed 6.06LTS today and noticed that when I put .png images in the desktop wallpaper, they don't show, they show if I convert them to .jpg. Am I missing a package?
[02:31] <greenman7> That's annoying and I don't know what to change to stop it doing it!! Haha
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> chendo: how many network cards in your router machine?
[02:31] <chendo> fyrestrtr: one
[02:31] <jrib> Singkong2005|Sy1: oh I see, not sure where gnome gets those.  Make sure ~/.local/share/applications/*.desktop file was updated, other than that I don't know
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> chendo: what do you want the machine to do exactly?
[02:32] <chendo> fyrestrtr: act as a router, so DHCP, NAT, firewlal
[02:32] <erUSUL> hkBst: in the dir /boot/ of your filesystem you should find the config files of the installed kernels
[02:32] <chendo> and i'll add other stuff later
[02:32] <chendo> but getting net to other computers is most important at the moment
[02:32] <quiet> greenman7, it's a Windows DNS server?
[02:32] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: I'll check that. Thanks.
[02:32] <greenman7> yes
[02:32] <fyrestrtr> chendo: to route, you need two networks. How are you connecting to the other network?
[02:32] <fyrestrtr> chendo: it there a modem installed?
[02:32] <quiet> greenman7, 2000 or 2003?
[02:32] <greenman7> 2000 - its an old boy
[02:32] <hkBst> erUSUL: there is no /boot on the xubuntu cd I got mounted
[02:33] <quiet> okay.
[02:33] <quiet> go to administrative toold.
[02:33] <quiet> tools*
[02:33] <chendo> fyrestrtr: modem->uplink port in hub, server in hub, rest of computers in hub
[02:33] <quiet> and open DNS
[02:33] <greenman7> yep in dns
[02:33] <MZM> how to kill process, if kill -9 PID does'nt work?
[02:33] <chendo> fyrestrtr: i've done this before, so i know it can be done
[02:33] <chendo> just wondering how to do it on ubuntu
[02:33] <greenman7> ok
[02:33] <hkBst> erUSUL: sorry I seem to be unclear. I want to get the config from the livecd without installing it
[02:34] <quiet> greenman7, under Forward Lookup Zones, you have abc.local?
[02:34] <Linuturk_code> I ripped some mp3's via sound juicer yesterday, using instructions from the forums. I couldn't pla them back in Rhythmbox. I got some sort of MIME error . . . have mutes in makeup taken over my computer?
[02:35] <Oni-Dracula> Linuturk_code, you probably don't have the mp3 codecs...
[02:35] <Radiance`> sup
[02:35] <Linuturk_code> i do
[02:35] <Linuturk_code> Oni-Dracula, i do
[02:35] <Oni-Dracula> then I reccomend you not use rhythembox
[02:35] <Oni-Dracula> :)
[02:35] <Linuturk_code> followed the directions via the restricted formats wiki
[02:35] <fyrestrtr> chendo: well, the shorewall page has a nice writeup on this, but its a lot easer if you have two network cards :)
[02:36] <Oni-Dracula> can you replicate the problem and give us the exact error
[02:36] <Oni-Dracula> ?
[02:36] <Singkong2005|Sy1> jrib: that file was updated... I'll see if it does what I want after I restart the computer. Thanks again.
[02:36] <Linuturk_code> Oni-Dracula, well, i'm going to use .ogg for now . . . but I've got an RCA Lyra I want to use
[02:36] <greenman7> Quiet: Yes i have foward zones and abc.local
[02:36] <Mau> blender in ubuntu dapper drake is full of bugs... its normal or the problem is my computer?
[02:36] <Linuturk_code> Oni-Dracula, sure, give me a few to get everything setup
[02:37] <chendo> fyrestrtr: yeah, but i can't get to it properly cause all i've got is irssi at the moment
[02:37] <chendo> and links/lynx would be a PITA
[02:37] <whadar> "gconf server is not in use, shutting down" maybe this is what causes my desktop not be shown?
[02:37] <Oni-Dracula> mmmm pita bread
[02:38] <whadar> every time i login this message appear in the syslog..
[02:38] <Linuturk_code> Oni-Dracula, actually, i'll have to do it tonight
[02:38] <Linuturk_code> work doesn't agree with it ;p
[02:38] <Oni-Dracula> k...it's always helpful to have the error, quoted verbatum
[02:38] <Oni-Dracula> im sure that anyone else here will be able to help you tonight
[02:38] <Oni-Dracula> :)

[02:56] <hs_125> void^, any luk?
[02:56] <Master_5> Bison: you want to set the time or change the timezone?
[02:56] <chendo_> anyone wanna send me their shorewall config? all i want is to share my net ;/
[02:56] <Bison> Master_5: timezone
[02:57] <chendo_> or point me to a basic firewall script or something
[02:57] <Bison> Master_5: is there an ubuntu equivilent to the arch rc.conf?
[02:57] <Bison> or similar?
[02:57] <nikin> cant get this working
[02:57] <Master_5> Bison: /etc/timezone
[02:58] <lukus001> Can anyone help me install cinelerra?
[02:58] <Bison> hmmm
[02:58] <nikin> i have a widscreen lcd, and i dont see the last few lines of the console (Ctrl+Alt+F1)
[02:58] <chendo_> i guess nobody helps much here ;/
[02:58] <nikin> what can i do?
[02:59] <uber_mort> Hi all, quick question...    The KDE fonts aren't terrible, but anything that uses GTK looks crappy.  I'm not even running XGL + compiz right now either, so its not something specific to XGL + compiz.  Anyone have any ideas how to fix it, or what would be causing it?
[02:59] <kmasta> when i activate my wireless inter and exit out of the networking applet, i go to firefox and i can't get on the internet, i go back to networking only to see that my wireless connection isn't active, whats goign on?
[02:59] <Bison> I'm kind of confused now.  I have two distros installed.  If I change the time in ubuntu, then the time in arch gets screwed up and vice versa.
[02:59] <chendo_> Bison: UTC and Local time
[02:59] <chendo_> one distro is probably set to UTC, one's set to local.
[03:00] <nikin> kmasta: maybe WEP couses the prob
[03:00] <Bison> chendo_: where do I set that in ubuntu?
[03:00] <kmasta> nikin: does ubuntu work with 128 bit encryption?
[03:00] <chendo_> Bison: no clue, i just installed it today
[03:00] <nikin> kmasta: not realy
[03:00] <chendo_> i can't share my net so all i got is irssi ;/
[03:00] <Master_5> Bison chendo is right though
[03:00] <Bison> Anyone else no?
[03:00] <Bison> know*
[03:00] <nikin> many problems ocured, but 64 goes fine
[03:00] <Bison> Master_5: yeah, that makes sense
[03:00] <kmasta> nikin:well there in lies my problem
[03:00] <Master_5> Bison just sec i'll look
[03:01] <kmasta> nikin: what about 64-bit?
[03:01] <Bison> Master_5: okay, thanks
[03:01] <nikin> kmasta:its working fine
[03:01] <dpupp> is there a way to output dmesg to a file on desktop?
[03:01] <Master_5> Bison: in arch what is your timezone set to in rc.conf? local or gmt?
[03:01] <kmasta> nikin: do you know why it doesn't like 128, do you think they'll support that in newer version, possibly even WPA?
[03:02] <Bison> dpupp: dmesg > ~/Desktop/dmesg.file
[03:02] <Lajuj> howdy
[03:02] <Bison> Master_5: I think its set to local
[03:02] <Bison> Master_5: almost positive
[03:03] <Lajuj> I am in an interesting situation - I've just updated to 6.06 and can use wireless, but I can't even see eth1
[03:03] <dpupp> Thanks bison.
[03:03] <Bison> yeah buddy
[03:03] <av___> hi, does ubuntu 6.06 Cds (Live) have gnuparted in?
[03:04] <dhouse> anyone know what you need to set in ubuntu to allow me to run a XWindow app from a remote solaris box?  Other than setting xhost +, and exporting DISPLAY on the solaris box.
[03:04] <evan___> lajuj, did it work in previous versions?
[03:04] <Lajuj> yes
[03:04] <evan___> were you using ndsiwrapper?
[03:05] <av___> Lajuj: waas that for me?
[03:05] <Bison> av___: I don't think so, but you can always install it using apt-get
[03:05] <mtb> hi. just finished installing ubuntu desktop 6.06, and the only problem i have is that the position of the screen on my monitor is aligned slightly to the right. obviously this can just be fixed by manually adjusting the monitor. only problem now tho is when i boot back into windows, the alignment here is now messed up. any suggestions how to fix this?
[03:05] <evan___> lajuj
[03:05] <evan___> yes
[03:05] <Lajuj> tell evan I was using ndiswrapper, but for wireless I think
[03:05] <xevil> av___: yes it does...
[03:05] <Bison> mtb: uninstall windows?
[03:05] <Master_5> Bison: what timezone is ubuntu showing with the "date" command
[03:05] <Lajuj> I can use wireless now, I just can't use wired networks
[03:06] <Bison> EDT
[03:06] <av___> xevil: If I start an installation without shrinking a NTFS partition, will I be prompted to shrink it?
[03:06] <mtb> Bison: that is not an option on this machine.
[03:06] <Bison> mtb: i was kidding
[03:06] <uber_mort> Hi all, quick question...    The KDE fonts aren't terrible, but anything that uses GTK looks crappy.  I'm not even running XGL + compiz right now either, so its not something specific to XGL + compiz.  Anyone have any ideas how to fix it, or what would be causing it?
[03:06] <nikin> kmasta: there is a howto for WPA
[03:06] <Master_5> bison make sure that arch is set to local....that sounds like your prob
[03:07] <sioux> Hi people I have this error with javaws applets: com.zerog.lax.LAX.launch(Unknown Source) I could not find a solution on google any help?
[03:07] <xevil> av___: the install is pretty painless... yes
[03:07] <richiefrich> uber_mort what fonts do u have and whats in  your xorg.conf
[03:07] <nikin> i have a widscreen lcd, and i dont see the last few lines of the console (Ctrl+Alt+F1)
[03:07] <av___> thanks xevil, Bison
[03:07] <richiefrich> uber_mort  are they all in there .. ?
[03:07] <Bison> sioux: sounds like some java libs you need to find
[03:08] <Lajuj> I think it is weird that I cannot see my ethernet card.  In the previous version it worked with no config
[03:08] <Bison> Master_5: So your saying that since it lists EDT in date that its set to local time?
[03:08] <sioux> bison I installed java as per ubuntu guide my ver in 1_5_0_6
[03:08] <chendo_> question: can i use debian sarge's deb sources in ubuntu?
[03:08] <Master_5> Bison: that's not what i'm saying
[03:08] <uber_mort> richiefrich: What do you mean exactly?    KDE is set to use DejaVu Sans.
[03:08] <Bison> sioux: yes, but com.zerog.lax.LAX does not sound like proprietary sun java stuff
[03:09] <richiefrich> uber_mort   and what xorg-server ver ?
[03:09] <Bison> Master_5: Then how can I tell if I'm set to local or utc on ubuntu?
[03:09] <richiefrich> uber_mort pastebin the xorg.conf
[03:10] <uber_mort> richiefrich: Will do, one sec
[03:10] <sioux> bison I am trying to install plarpebu is a karaoke
[03:10] <Bison> sioux: http://www.macrovision.com/zg_to_mvsn.shtml
[03:10] <richiefrich> uber_mort and also what does --> ls -la /usr/share/fonts/
[03:10] <richiefrich> uber_mort show ?
[03:11] <Aurorius> hi.. just a simple question.. how to minimize the GAIM away message  ?
[03:11] <Master_5> Bison try running tzconfig
[03:11] <uber_mort> richiefrich: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20874 for xorg, I'll paste the ls -la /usr/share/fonts in a second
[03:11] <tabman> I've a dual boot ubuntu+xp, I need to reinstall windows by formatting my drive which has windows on it, will I need to redo ubuntu as well. What would be the procedure so that my current ubuntu installation remains untouched and grub detects the new windows installation automatically ?
[03:12] <Lajuj> does anyone have advice for helping 6.06 find eth1.  When I run ifconfig I only see lo and wlan0
[03:13] <richiefrich> uber_mort and also what does --> ls -la /usr/share/fonts/  <-- paste that to please
[03:13] <uber_mort> richiefrich: I've pasted it, refresh the paste bin
[03:14] <chendo_> arno's iptables script >>>>>>> shorewall.
[03:14] <chendo_> 2 minutes and i was in
[03:14] <richiefrich> uber_mort no i see the --> xorg.conf
[03:14] <richiefrich> not the dir
[03:15] <uber_mort> richiefrich: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20875 its at the very bottom after the xorg
[03:15] <richiefrich> ah the number changed :P
[03:16] <richiefrich>  74 b 4
[03:16] <siXy> Hi people, I'm having trouble installing ubuntu server.  It doesnt get pas "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, Booting the kernel."
[03:16] <tabman> I've a dual boot ubuntu+xp, I need to reinstall windows by formatting my drive which has windows on it, will I need to redo ubuntu as well. What would be the procedure so that my current ubuntu installation remains untouched and grub detects the new windows installation automatically ?
[03:16] <richiefrich> uber_mort   and what xorg-server ver ?
[03:17] <uber_mort> richiefrich: Xorg 7.0
[03:17] <siXy> tabman are they on physically seperate disks?
[03:17] <Thunderpants> tabman, after u reinstall xp, boot ur ubuntu disk, type rescue, go thru the steps to get to a prompt, then type grub-install /dev/hdX
[03:17] <richiefrich> no the xorg-server
[03:17] <richiefrich> uber_mort  no the xorg-server
[03:17] <Thunderpants> where X is the number of the partition root is on
[03:18] <tabman> sixy: yes
[03:18] <sioux> bison java applets make diffeferenz if I use it on windows or linux? I mean once installed java the OS (windows or Linux) should not make difference right?
[03:18] <siXy> if you currently use your winxp disk as the primary disk do as thunderpants said
[03:18] <uber_mort> richiefrich: How do I find that?  I did an Xorg -version and it says 7.0.0
[03:19] <siXy> otherwise just install windows normally. In either case, unplug your linux hdd while you do it.
[03:19] <richiefrich> uber_mort can u do it with  apt-get
[03:19] <tabman> siXy: how do I unplug my linux partition ?
[03:19] <Lajuj> sorry for asking again, but does anyone have advice for helping 6.06 find eth1?  When I run ifconfig I only see lo and wlan0
[03:19] <siXy> open your computer and remove the cables from the linux hard drive
[03:20] <tabman> siXy: I have 1 HDD but both OS are on separate partitions
[03:20] <quiet> Lajuj, ifconfig -a also only shows eth0?
[03:20] <uber_mort> richiefrich: I'm sorry, I'm not sure how to get it with apt :-/
[03:20] <siXy> "<siXy> tabman are they on physically seperate disks?"....
[03:20] <tabman> siXy: no there is only 1 HDD in my system
[03:21] <freeze_> hi
[03:21] <Lajuj> quiet ifconfig shows only lo and wlan0 and no eth? nothing
[03:21] <tabman> but the HDD has 4 partitions
[03:21] <siXy> then do what thunder siad, but be careful to install windows to the right partition
[03:21] <World_Lighter> buenos dias
[03:21] <quiet> Lajuj, 'ifconfig -a'
 how big is ubuntu exactly?
 huge
 massive
 hs_125: you uninstalled it? as in apt-get remove j2re1.4 ?
 exactly this big <---------------->
[03:21] <quiet> not ifconfig
[03:22] <freeze_> I am using a fresh install of Ubuntu 6.06 but Nautilus doesn't seem to work...it gives an error for having been unexpectantly shut down, any ideas?
[03:22] <Lajuj> okay, now i see lo, wlan0 and sit0
[03:22] <richiefrich> uber_mort  hmm idk either..    thats quit weird that the fonts changed
[03:22] <uber_mort> is there any way to roll back everything I upgraded today without knowing which packages it was?
[03:22] <quiet> NIC is unsupported?  is this a laptop?
[03:22] <siXy> lajuj if eth0 does not show up, it means it isnt loaded. type dmegs and look for messages refferring to your NIC
[03:22] <uber_mort> because I can just uninstall XGL / compiz
[03:22] <siXy> *dmesg
[03:22] <Lajuj> yes quiet
[03:22] <tabman> ok Thanks
[03:22] <uber_mort> or roll everything back
[03:22] <quiet> Lajuj, what is the NIC?
[03:23] <richiefrich> uber_mort u can look in the logs
[03:23] <richiefrich> uber_mort see what was updated
[03:23] <World_Lighter> im on a fresh install of ubuntu and 2nd monitor is being a whore
[03:23] <martinz> kann mir jemand helfenen einen kartenleser (cyberjack pinpad usb) unter ubuntu dapper zum laufen zu bringen? danke schonmal
[03:23] <World_Lighter> any help? :)
[03:23] <Lajuj> quiet, I am not sure what is NIC
[03:23] <root___> What's the syntax for enabling ssh from any host?
[03:23] <quiet> Lajuj, lspci | grep Ethernet
[03:23] <shay> !tell kingsing about root
[03:23] <martinz> quit
[03:24] <Thunderpants> !de
[03:24] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[03:24] <Lajuj> quiet, nothing happens when i grep ethernet
[03:24] <kingsing> shay: But what do I write in hosts.allow to allow ssh from any host? ssh: ALL: ALL?
[03:24] <quiet> Lajuj, did you grep 'ethernet' or 'Ethernet' ???
[03:25] <Lajuj> quiet, I did both actually
[03:25] <kingsing> quiet: Wouldn't it be better to grep "thernet"?
[03:25] <quiet> kingsing, well NICs are displayed as 'Ethernet controller:'
[03:25] <quiet> so it matters not.
[03:25] <shay> Lajuj, quiet; use grep with the "-i" option
[03:25] <kingsing> quiet: Well it would if he'd write ethernet..
[03:26] <kingsing> Or that.
[03:26] <rixxon> does livecd use grub aswell?
[03:26] <Captain_Fleming> Hi.
[03:26] <harisund> Hello! Is there a way I can let Ubiquity know that I want the Grub installed in another place? I want to tri boot AMD64 Ubuntu, i386 Ubuntu and Windows XP. Right now i have i386 and WindowsXP on the main grub.
[03:26] <alex_> eso
[03:26] <quiet> Lajuj, looks to me like your nic is unsupported.
[03:26] <quiet> you can try ndiswrapper.
[03:26] <Captain_Fleming> Anyone here knows how to make ntfs read/write for a normal user.?
[03:27] <harisund> Captain_Fleming what driver are you using to access the ntfs partition.
[03:27] <Lajuj> quiet, that is what I did to get my wireless to work under the last version, and it has continued to work
[03:27] <quiet> Captain_Fleming, google fuse ntfs
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: for the moment fuse
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> quiet: :)
[03:27] <Lajuj> what is weird is that under 6.06 it is no longer supported it seems
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> But I get this really annoying error...
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> fusermount: mount failed: Invalid argument
[03:27] <dpupp> is it possible for me to remove images i uploaded to the galler forums?
[03:27] <quiet> Lajuj, so the nic worked under breezy?
[03:27] <Captain_Fleming> When I do sudo mount -a
[03:27] <Lajuj> quiet, yeah
[03:27] <Macom> hi !
[03:28] <harisund> Captain_Fleming I use ntfs-3g. If I am not much mistaken when mounting you can say the options -o uid=1000, gid=1000 which would give write access to the user with uid of 1000 (which would be the first user)
[03:28] <dpupp> i uploaded the wrong one...
[03:28] <harisund> Captain_Fleming can you post the output of your /etc/fstab somewhere?
[03:28] <quiet> Lajuj, did you dist-upgrade or fresh install?
[03:28] <azureal> hi, is there a way to see how fast an interface is? (preferably commandline)
[03:28] <Captain_Fleming> Moment...
[03:28] <Lajuj> quiet, I did dist-upgrade
[03:28] <quiet> Lajuj, i'd bet that some of your kernel modules didn't get upgraded
[03:28] <azureal> for example, i'd like to see an output such as 1Gbit for eth0, or 54Mbit for eth1
[03:28] <harisund> Hello! Is there a way I can let Ubiquity know that I want the Grub installed in another place? I want to tri boot AMD64 Ubuntu, i386 Ubuntu and Windows XP. Right now i have i386 and WindowsXP on the main grub.
[03:29] <harisund> azureal that would not be very easy. You could monitor the output of ifconfig, under the sections TX and RX for amount transferred and received.
[03:29] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20876
[03:29] <Lajuj> quiet, can update the kernel to fix that?
[03:29] <quiet> azureal, lspci will usually tell you the speed
[03:29] <quiet> Lajuj, you would probably need something like restricted-modules for your kernel.
[03:29] <azureal> harisund: ok, that's what i thought at first
[03:29] <kingsing> where do I start the ssh-daemon?
[03:30] <dpupp> where do i go to delete this: http://ubuntuforums.org/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=3337
[03:30] <quiet> Lajuj, what does uname -r say
[03:30] <siXy> I'm having trouble installing ubuntu server.  It doesnt get pas "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, Booting the kernel." any ideas?
[03:30] <Lajuj> quiet, 2.6.15-26-386
[03:30] <Macom> i had some problems to open a wmp streaming video from firefox. does anyone can help me please ? i had trying to install vlc and his plugin for firefox but it say me "(no-picture)" :/
[03:31] <Captain_Fleming> siXy: How about waiting? It takes a while... :)
[03:31] <kingsing> Anyone who knows how to start ssh?
[03:31] <harisund> Captain_Fleming I think we should try to manually mount the partition first. then we will edit /etc/fstab. I am not able to detect any mistake in the fstab off the top of my head.
[03:31] <siXy> captain flemming - not all day it doesnt
[03:31] <quiet> Lajuj, what does sudo aptitude search linux-restricted-modules have by ... modules-386  ?
[03:31] <ardchoille> kingsing:  ssh user@host
[03:31] <harisund> kingsing if you have SSH installed, sudo invoke-rc.d ssh restart
[03:31] <Captain_Fleming> siXy: You sure it is the right kernel version?
[03:31] <azureal> harisund, RX and TX seem cumulative
[03:31] <kingsing> harisund: Where do I make it permanent? I can't find rc.conf
[03:32] <harisund> ardchoille ! I remember you from a forum paste I made... about ssh-agent and stuff.. by the way, in the Gnome desktop, /etc/xdg/autostart is where update-manager is.
[03:32] <siXy> Its the most recent ubuntu server iso.  just pressing the install to hard disk button atm - is there an option ive missed?
[03:32] <Lajuj> quiet, i   linux-restricted-modules-386 - Restricted Linux modules on 386.
[03:32] <harisund> azureal yes it is, I guess you could measure the difference between say, 5 seconds, for some real time data.
[03:32] <harisund> kingsing are you sure you have installed SSH server?
[03:32] <ardchoille> harisund: Ah, thanks
[03:32] <kingsing> harisund: it's not in init.d
[03:33] <harisund> Captain_Fleming did you try mounting it manually?
[03:33] <shriphani> where can i get breezy badger ?
[03:33] <quiet> Lajuj, and you've rebooted since you dist-upgraded?
[03:33] <ardchoille> harisund: I didn't install ssh server and I can ssh into that box
[03:33] <siXy> its a VIA P4X533 based motherboard if thats relevant
[03:33] <kingsing> harisund: I guess not.. Is it openssh I should get?
[03:33] <Lajuj> quiet, yes
[03:33] <quiet> Lajuj, it would be really helpful if you knew what your NIC was.
[03:33] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Worked as a charm, but did not give my user access...
[03:33] <Lajuj> quiet, but it never hurts to reboot and keep on rebooting
[03:33] <harisund> kingsing try executing 'sudo apt-get install openssh-server'. It should install the server and make sure it starts up every time you reboot.
[03:33] <Lajuj> quiet, I am not sure what NIC is?
[03:33] <mwh_> Hello, I have a quick question about Rosetta, is it posible without beeing a member of a team to translate with Rosetta and then send this translation to one who is a member to incorporate it?
[03:33] <harisund> Captain_Fleming what is your username?
[03:33] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Only the root may access, and that is (imho) not safe enough...
[03:33] <quiet> yeah... you said that.
[03:33] <Captain_Fleming> cpf
[03:33] <quiet> so... we have no idea what module it needs.
[03:34] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20877
[03:34] <kingsing> harisund: Automaticly? But where do I see all the daemons etc that starts at boot up?
[03:34] <Lajuj> quiet, I don't even know what the letters NIC stand for
[03:34] <quiet> Network Interface Card
[03:34] <Captain_Fleming> :)
[03:34] <Lajuj> quiet, okay
[03:34] <Lajuj> quiet, I can figure that out
[03:34] <harisund> kingsing the daemons are all at /etc/init.d. Whether are not they startup at run level 'n' is determined by looking at /etc/rcn.d. If there is a shortcut to the daemon, it gets started. Else not.
[03:35] <harisund> Captain_Fleming from your second page, I am guessing what you should be entering in your fstab is not ntfs-fuse (in the third column)..
[03:35] <kingsing> harisund: Ok. thanks.
[03:35] <mwh_> anyone know a translation channel for ubuntu?
[03:35] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: what should it be then?
[03:35] <kashual> moins
[03:36] <harisund> Captain_Fleming I am looking (rather, googling). Will let you know in an instant.
[03:36] <kingsing> harisund: I don't have an rcn.d only rcS.d
[03:36] <harisund> kingsing I meant, substitute n with your run level number.
[03:36] <harisund> For run level 6 (restart) you would see in rc6.d and so on.
[03:36] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: If all not works, could you give me a little howto page for ntfs-3g ?
[03:36] <dpupp> anyone here use the gallery section of the forums? im trying to find where to edit/delete.... ? ......
[03:37] <kashual> exit
[03:37] <harisund> Captain_Fleming hmmm hang on.. are you running i386 or AMD64?
[03:37] <dpupp> i only see uploads.
[03:37] <kingsing> harisund: I don't know them.. In my other distros there's always only been 1 :P
[03:37] <Captain_Fleming> i386
[03:37] <Filipe245> good afternoon
[03:37] <harisund> kingsing which other distros?
[03:37] <Captain_Fleming> pCeleron
[03:37] <harisund> Captain_Fleming ok hang on. I am more familiar with ntfs-3g I will give that to you in an instant.
[03:37] <kingsing> harisund: arch, slack etc...
[03:37] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Thanks a lot :)
[03:37] <kingsing> harisund: why?
[03:37] <Filipe245> I chmoded the /usr/ directory with 700 ... banging my head on the wall didn't solve the problem. What can I do?
[03:38] <harisund> kingsing I was just wondering whether or not those used sysV type init run levels.
[03:38] <Lajuj> quiet, I know it ia broadcom mini pci card, TM1300
[03:38] <harisund> Filipe245 why would you have to do that?
[03:38] <shriphani> where do i get previous ubuntu  ersions ?
[03:38] <Filipe245> harisund curiosity =/
[03:38] <harisund> Captain_Fleming searching, hang on .. I am trying to find out that very important repo that you have to add to your sources.list (hope you are familiar with that?)
[03:38] <kingsing> harisund: Don't know what that is.
[03:39] <henrysixwives> Hey, I have a strange question.  I've been trying to install Ubuntu onto my machine with a new Mobo in it without much success.  The desktop CD keeps freezing.   I've just notived that Ubuntu recommends a different CD for chips based on "EM64T" and then goes on to talk lots about AMD chips.   My new Mobo has an Intel chip, yet on the box it says EM64T.    Should I be installing with the 64-bit CD?
[03:39] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Not really, but I will be soon ;)
[03:39] <kingsing> harisund: Can I remove stuff from the "rc*.d" then to have them not start at boot-time?
[03:39] <DrBanzai> Anybody here use minicom?
[03:39] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: sorry, I have already added some stuff in my sources.list thingy :) Did not work though (was for splashy :P)
[03:39] <harisund> kingsing basically in Debian and Ubuntu (and even RedHat based systems) there is one directory called /etc/init.d which has all services. The services can be started or stopped as root by doing /etc/init.d/service_name {start,stop}
[03:39] <haresltd> what does it mean when i type $make 536
[03:39] <haresltd> and it says
[03:39] <haresltd> :
[03:39] <harisund> Captain_Fleming no problem ..
[03:39] <quiet> Lajuj, isn't the TM 1300 a wifi card?
[03:40] <Lajuj> quiet, oh shoot
[03:40] <haresltd>    Module precompile check
[03:40] <haresltd>    Current running kernel is: 2.6.12-10-386
[03:40] <haresltd>    /lib/modules...   autoconf.h does not exist
[03:40] <haresltd>    please install kernel source
[03:40] <haresltd> make: *** [check]  Error 1
[03:40] <harisund> kingsing what you would have to do is yes, delete the shortcuts in rc*.d and they will neither start during boot time nor end during shut down time.
[03:40] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: Have you done ./configure already?
[03:40] <Lajuj> quiet, yeah, you are right
[03:40] <haresltd> nope, lol
[03:40] <kingsing> harisund: That I know. But in arch I have a "daemon" array where I add all my daemons that should start at boot-up.. Arch is a veru minimalistic distro however,
[03:40] <quiet> oo.. pretty.
[03:41] <haresltd> haresltd@ubuntusys:~/Desktop/driver/Intel-536$ ./configure
[03:41] <haresltd> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[03:41] <Lajuj> quiet, I am looking on my original config on the dell websit, but I don't anything, only the wifi card and modem
[03:41] <harisund> kingsing yes...interesting. there are tools in debian/ubuntu where you can do the modifications. I believe BUM (boot up manager) is a graphical tool and sysvrcconf or something is a ncurses based GUI.
[03:41] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: the normal installation (compilation) is './configure' (if you don't get through that, like me, you are screwed), 'make', and 'make install'
[03:41] <DevGet> donen't ubuntu has the rndc command?
[03:41] <quiet> Lajuj, what is the model?
[03:41] <kingsing> harisund: I prefer a simple config file :/
[03:41] <Lajuj> quiet, d600
[03:41] <lukus001> Can anyone tell me how to fix this error when trying to install cinelerrra? heres there error i get durring "make" http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20879
[03:42] <rulus> hi, anyone known how to add an emblem to a folder with command line?
[03:42] <harisund> kingsing so in those distros you mention in a config file which service to start when?
[03:42] <quiet> Lajuj, latitude?
[03:42] <Lajuj> quiet, yeah
[03:42] <dpupp> 18hours later.... i cant figure out whats going on with this network card.... So I posted a link to the forums. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140330&page=2 (cntinuing an existing thread. )
[03:42] <kingsing> harisund: Yeah.. So it's very easy to see what's to start etc..
[03:42] <haresltd> hmm... so i am screwed, i cannot install this driver ?
[03:42] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: what u try to do?
[03:42] <haresltd> i am installing intel 536ep modem drivers
[03:42] <haresltd> i have installed
[03:43] <bestial> Hello! The icons on my desktop is REALLY small, and there aren't no filename under them. I've tried to resize them but that won't last for the next icon I put there. It also doesn't bring forward the filename. Any suggestions?

[03:43] <haresltd> i can make clean
[03:43] <Captain_Fleming> haresltd: uhm, is there no .deb package for that?
[03:43] <haresltd> but make 536 doesnt work
[03:43] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: you are familiar with teh command line, right?
[03:43] <haresltd> i am following the stps from the wiki

[03:46] <Captain_Fleming> ok :)

[03:49] <Captain_Fleming> deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ dapper main
[03:49] <Captain_Fleming> I did include the -a

[03:49] <Captain_Fleming> Did I?
[03:49] <Captain_Fleming> Uuhm...
[03:49] <siXy> i would be surprised if you find the answer here
[03:50] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: hmmm.. ok hang on ..(check in your history to make sure you added the -a. -a is to append to the file. else it overwritees the file.
[03:50] <harisund> haresltd: ahh I downloaded it in my school's windows machine that can't extract .tgz files. Give me an instant.
[03:50] <Captain_Fleming> cpf-desktop% echo deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ dapper main | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/resources.list
[03:50] <Captain_Fleming> This is what my history says...
[03:50] <haresltd> okay :)
[03:50] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: Whoa! Just execute the same commands and change resources to sources
[03:50] <harisund> include the -a.The file name is /etc/apt/sources.list and not /etc/apt/resources.list :)
[03:50] <bestial> Aaah! rulus that made it! :) It was me who was insane and had made the adjustments as good as a monkey. :)
[03:51] <quiet> Lajuj, aptitude install bcm5700-source
[03:51] <Captain_Fleming> :P
[03:51] <Captain_Fleming> Whahaha
[03:51] <bestial> Thank you for clearing that one out,.
[03:51] <rulus> bestial: lol, fine its ok now :)
[03:51] <Lajuj> quiet, ok
[03:51] <bestial> rulus, yeah. :)
[03:51] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: then you would do 'sudo sh -c "apt-get update; apt-get install ntfs-3g"
[03:52] <Lajuj> quiet, done
[03:52] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: ;) I'm ahead of you :)
[03:52] <Lajuj> quiet, should i reboot?
[03:52] <MetaMorfoziS> how can is setup for one application isn't use swap, only memory
[03:52] <MetaMorfoziS> ?
[03:53] <siXy> hmm this cd is still not booting. ubuntu-alternate will not boot either.  the via VIA P4X533 isnt listed as unsupported so im really stuck here
[03:53] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Is it normal that I need to reboot?
[03:53] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: not in Linux, no.
[03:53] <siXy> nothign wrong with the hardware as centos will run on it...
[03:53] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Yet, there is this box that asks me to reboot -_-'
[03:53] <Captain_Fleming> Owh, wait...
[03:54] <harisund> Captain_Fleming that is probably becasue you installed a new kernel.
[03:54] <Captain_Fleming> That was because there was an update...
[03:54] <Captain_Fleming> :)
[03:54] <Captain_Fleming> Moment, I'll reboot now, could you in the mean time find me a good howto?
[03:54] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I will tell you ...before you reboot hang on.
[03:54] <Captain_Fleming> :)
[03:55] <Captain_Fleming> Zdra: Welkom :)
[03:55] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: do lsmod | grep fuse to make sure the fuse module is loaded?
[03:55] <rulus> hi, anyone knows how to add an emblem to a folder with the command line?
[03:55] <ookami> i want to Delete mrv8k.ko driver from /lib/modules/...kernel...  is there a safe way to do this? ...
[03:55] <Captain_Fleming> cpf-desktop% lsmod | grep fuse
[03:55] <Captain_Fleming> fuse                   38412  2
[03:56] <quiet> Lajuj, use module-assistant to build the driver... aptitude install module-assistant && module-assistant prepare && module-assistant auto-install bcm5700
[03:56] <whirm> hi
[03:56] <whirm> someone knows where can I find developer documentation about ubiquity?
[03:56] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: now .. I am modifying your pasting so you can see what to add in your /etc/fstab list
[03:56] <Captain_Fleming> ok
[03:57] <Lajuj> quiet, I am getting a weird error - I sudo'ed the commad, but module assistant says I am not root
[03:57] <harisund> haresltd: sorry for the delay. I finally managed to download a SCP client to access my Windows box. Ok so here we go, what did you do? make 586?
[03:57] <haresltd> yeah
[03:57] <quiet> sudo su -
[03:58] <haresltd> and it says missing autoconf.h
[03:58] <quiet> then do it.
[03:58] <ookami> how do i see if a file exists on my computer? im looking for mrv8k.ko to delete it.
[03:58] <harisund> haresltd: did you try installing autoconf then?
[03:58] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: just an instant.
[03:59] <Captain_Fleming> ok :)
[03:59] <harisund> Captain_Fleming under what username and gruop do you want it to be loaded?
[03:59] <haresltd> harisund: how do i do that? lol
[03:59] <Captain_Fleming> username=cpf group=ntfs
[03:59] <haresltd> i am a bit of a newb as you can tell :p
[03:59] <harisund> haresltd: execute on the command line 'sudo apt-get install autoconf'
[03:59] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: Do you know the uid and gid of those? As in the number? do you know how to find out?
[03:59] <mus0> on a box with win and ubuntu
[03:59] <siXy> ah ok found the issue. should have known really.
[03:59] <mus0> I fiddled with the linux partitions via a windows app.
[03:59] <harisund> YAY! I managed to tri boot my system. Ubiquity identified everything correctly ... sweet ......
[04:00] <Lajuj> quiet, okay,  it is installing
[04:00] <mus0> and broke grub, it seems.
[04:00] <Captain_Fleming> hhm... harisund gid=1001 for sure, I think uid should be 1001 too (or 1000)
[04:00] <rulus> hi, anyone knows how to add an emblem to a folder with the command line?
[04:00] <haresltd> E: Package autoconf has no installation candidate
[04:00] <mus0> booted from the ubuntu live cd now.
[04:00] <DrBanzai> Anybody here know how to get minicom to work when talking to something OTHER then a modem?
[04:00] <harisund> ok wait .. cat /etc/group | grep ntfs gives you gid
[04:00] <mus0> can I gix grub from here?
[04:00] <Captain_Fleming> mus0: grub-install /dev/<your drive>
[04:00] <harisund> cat /etc/passwd | grep cpf gives your uid, Captain_Fleming
[04:01] <haresltd> nm, i fixed that
[04:01] <harisund> haresltd: is that a new machine you are working on? Did you make any modifications to your sources.list repository listing?
[04:01] <Captain_Fleming> 1000
[04:01] <xiko1> k my noob friend just chmod 700 his /usr.  Is there any way I can fix it with the Live Cd or something?
[04:01] <mus0> thank you Captain_Fleming. let me try that.
[04:01] <Lajuj> quiet, done
[04:01] <haresltd> harisund: yeah, it is actually 5.10 and its a new install, and i haven't modified anything as far as i am aware
[04:01] <harisund> xiko1 by any chance is it Filipe245? He asked the same thing earlier, am surprised why nobody responded.
[04:01] <Aurorius> hi.. anyone free ? wanna ask a question about gaim
[04:02] <harisund> haresltd so could you get autoconf?
[04:02] <quiet> Lajuj, modprobe bcm5700
[04:02] <xiko1> harisund: yes, he is b my side, he rebooted and of course gnome didnt open. He cant even sudo anymore
[04:02] <haresltd> harisund: yeah actually i ran an sudo apt-get update and then it was able to get autoconf
[04:02] <xiko1> harisund: we are just looking for a way to fix it without total reinstall
[04:02] <haresltd> but now when i do make 536 it still says missing autoconf.h
[04:02] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: have live cd there?
[04:03] <Lajuj> quiet,  weird, nothing
[04:03] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: yes
[04:03] <harisund> haresltd: ok let me check.
[04:03] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: working on that now?
[04:03] <quiet> lsmod | grep bcm
[04:03] <haresltd> lol, thanks
[04:03] <mus0> Captain_Fleming, did that with "sudo grub-install" from a terminal.
[04:03] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: not him, I will do that and ask from there
[04:03] <Captain_Fleming> mus0: Yes?
[04:03] <RalleAb> why is it that the synaptic doesnt have wine?
[04:03] <xiko1> brb then
[04:03] <mus0> got "could not find device for /boot
[04:03] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20884 check the last 4 lines. I commented 2 of your last lines and added mine.
[04:03] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: Do that :)

[04:03] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:03] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: thnx :)
[04:04] <quiet> ifconfig -a
[04:04] <quiet> Lajuj, ^^
[04:04] <lukus001> Can anyone tell me how to fix this error when trying to install cinelerra? heres there error i get durring "make" http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20879
[04:04] <Linuturk_code> ok . . . dreamweaver officially sucks
[04:04] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: then check in your /etc/modules to see if fuse is loaded during startup. If not, just add the word 'fuse' at the bottm of the file.
[04:04] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: did that earlier :)
[04:04] <Linuturk_code> it's lagging behind with 2000 lines of html . . . on a fast machine. Got a replacement besides NVU ?
[04:04] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: ah yes. Ok cool.
[04:05] <MZM> Linuturk_code: Quanta+
[04:05] <RalleAb> it said I needed to do this: debhttp://wine.budgetdedicated.com/aptdappermain (how do I do that)
[04:05] <harisund> haresltd: oh wait wait .. do you have kernel sources installed?
[04:05] <ahammond> I want to get a monitor for my laptop. I need to find out what the hardware can support. How do I find out what kind of video card / memory my box has? Or better still, what's the maximum resolution it can support?
[04:05] <Lajuj> quiet, ifconfig -a still gives sit0
[04:05] <Linuturk_code> i'll look into it MZM
[04:05] <mus0> Captain_Fleming, so this is not working...
[04:05] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Uhm, my normal user still gets access denies...
[04:05] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: did that? Then unmount everything you might have mounted and remount using 'sudo mount -a'
[04:05] <mus0> anyway to use gnome partitioner or something to fix things?
[04:05] <Captain_Fleming> mus0: It should
[04:05] <haresltd> harisund: i'm not sure
[04:05] <haresltd> lmao
[04:05] <Aurorius> how can i minimize away message in gaim ?
[04:06] <harisund> haresltd: paste the output of 'uname -a' here?
[04:06] <Captain_Fleming> mus0: if not, try google: 'grub', go to the manual, and try with that advice.

[04:06] <Captain_Fleming> then I did 'cd /media/C'
[04:06] <harisund> Captain_Fleming can you try to find out under what permissions the folder has been mounted? Try to do a ls -l on the /media folder?
[04:06] <harisund> RalleAb: what?
[04:06] <RalleAb> how can I add stuff to repitoire?

[04:07] <MrKeuner> hi, last year when I bought 64 bit processor for my sister's laptop I installed debian on it, it was great except some non-free applications such as realplayer, macromedia, etc. did not have 64 bit binaries as well as some issues with openoffice and ndiswrapper device binaries etc. what is the situation of 64 bit processors today? is it still a bit early to buy one for ordinary desktop user?
[04:07] <Captain_Fleming> drwx------ 1 root ntfs 16384 2006-08-17 12:16 C
[04:07] <Apeiron> hey all :) i installed java like described in the ubuntu wiki, but limewire cant locate java.. how can i configure limewire to find my java, or set symlinks so limewire can find it?
[04:07] <RalleAb> harisund: do you know what to do?
[04:08] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: drwx------ 1 root ntfs 16384 2006-08-17 12:16 C
[04:08] <quiet> Lajuj, try to reboot... after reboot.. lsmod to see if the module is there.
[04:08] <cdubya> Apeiron, did you do update-alternatives?
[04:08] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: so basically the group was right, but uid wasn't right. Are you sure there exists a user id called 'cfs' ?/
[04:08] <RalleAb> !repertoire
[04:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repertoire - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:08] <ahammond> MrKeuner: unless you need binary kernel modules (stuff like nvidia or ndis) then 64bit is fine for desktop boxes.
[04:08] <Captain_Fleming> lol, I'll edit ;)
[04:09] <Apeiron> cdubya, oh, possible that i forgot that... lemme check :)
[04:09] <ahammond> MrKeuner: you can run 64 and 32 bit binaries on a 64b os. :)
[04:09] <harisund> haresltd: execute-> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[04:09] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: It was supposed to be uid=cpf...
[04:09] <Stromberg`> when you install the nvidia driver. is it normal  that the mouse cursor flickers badly when sth loads?
[04:09] <ninn> how can i create kernel-modules?
[04:09] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: But it still does not work :(
[04:09] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: So it still loads as uid root?
[04:09] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: ok im in the chmod 700 /usr machine
[04:10] <Captain_Fleming> xikol: Do chmod 777 /usr
[04:10] <harisund> Captain_Fleming you unmounted and remounted after changing cfs to cpf right?
[04:10] <J_P> hi all..
[04:10] <Captain_Fleming> Jep, moment harisund
[04:10] <Apeiron> cdubya, much thx :)
[04:10] <cdubya> np

[04:11] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: and I'm not sure...
[04:11] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: done already of course with sudo /D
[04:11] <haresltd> ok, sorry

[04:12] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: YESSSSS!
[04:12] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: What was happening?
[04:12] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Just needed to umount my drives :)

[04:13] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I told you to do that first :) Glad it worked. Now go ahead and reboot and have fun with your new kernel.
[04:13] <harisund> haresltd: any luck?
[04:13] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: nope, first help someone else out :)
[04:13] <harisund> Captain_Fleming you mean here?
[04:13] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: yep
[04:14] <harisund> Captain_Fleming sharing the love, eh?
[04:14] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: I'm helping out the 'chmod 700' thing...
[04:14] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Of course :)
[04:14] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: ah ok.
[04:14] <haresltd> harisund: yeah
[04:14] <haresltd> getting a bit farther now, thanks :)
[04:14] <harisund> haresltd: so how far along are we?
[04:14] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: That is something I can handle -_-' the rest I cannot =(
[04:14] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: you mean, cannot 'yet'.
[04:14] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: indeed :)
[04:14] <haresltd> i am up to installing the Intel536.ko file
[04:14] <harisund> sweet ....
[04:15] <Aurorius> err.. quick question.. how can i minimize away message in gaim ?
[04:15] <harisund> haresltd: did you read the readme.txt file?
[04:15] <harisund> Aurorius: I haven't found a way to do that myself. I just move it to another workspace :)
[04:15] <haresltd> yeah, i read it, but i seemed a bit different from the information on the wiki
[04:15] <siXy> can ubuntu cope with 2 independant swap partitions in case one disk dies?
[04:15] <harisund> haresltd: keep me posted on how it goes.
[04:15] <harisund> siXy: no reason why it can't.
[04:15] <siXy> or is one mirrored swap parttion better?
[04:15] <manmadha> is it possible to get FM radio on net
[04:15] <haresltd> harisund: will do :D
[04:16] <harisund> siXy: make sure theswap partitions are identified in the fstab or something. and I don't know if 'swap' partitions can be mirroed.
[04:16] <siXy> not sure how early ubuntu loads the raid drivers
[04:16] <Aurorius> harisund: lol.. it's still a solution.. thanks !
[04:16] <whirm> siXy: if you have 2 swap partitions and one dies, the system goes all the way down...
[04:16] <doughboy> Can someone point me in the right direction on printer sharing between an ubuntu box and laptop running windows?
[04:16] <manmadha> is it possible to get FM radio on net
[04:17] <J_P> HEY ALL, anyone know what is problem with gnome-terminal ?
[04:17] <harisund> J_P: what problem?
[04:17] <BlueEagle> manmadha: That would really be up to where you are in the world.
[04:17] <siXy> ok, so lets give a mirrored swap partition a try then
[04:17] <PingunZ> hey, any guides for setting up phpbb ?
[04:18] <manmadha> BlueEagle, ya but it is possible to listen the programs on net?
[04:18] <BlueEagle> manmadha: FM is a (relatively) short range system so if you've got a station streamin FM stations then you're still not guaranteed that they will be streaming the FM stations in your area.
[04:18] <beesandflowers> hello when trying to install ubuntu on my laptop i get a "kernel panic not syncing: VFS - unable to mount root fs on unknown block..."; i tried using the following options ide=nodma noapic nolapic as options but alas, to no avail. can anybody point me in the right direction please, i think i exhausted google as well...
[04:18] <stray77> phpbb is a easy to setup, its the apache, php, mysql thats tough

[04:18] <phaedrus44> what is this nUbuntu ?
[04:19] <richard_> can anyone please send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[04:19] <siXy> ubuntu server has an automagic lamp install thingie
[04:19] <manmadha> BlueEagle, what is the process/
[04:19] <harisund> manmadha here is one place you can start: http://www.live-radio.net/
[04:19] <Captain_Fleming> Soo nice, hearing my mp3's after some what 2hours of installation :)
[04:19] <phaedrus44> can i use network ubuntu as my home distro ?
[04:19] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: from your ntfs partition you mean?
[04:19] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Jep:)
[04:19] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: I know I could do read-only, but I just need rw...
[04:20] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I know ntfs-3g works fine, but I won't vouch for its safety. better have some form of backup for your ntfs files though.
[04:20] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Now I should be able to run wine on any program I have on my disk of win32... AND be able to store stuff :)
[04:20] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: uh ok. I don't use Wine, and know *practically nothing* about it.
[04:20] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: Ok, I'll backup everything on my linux...
[04:20] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I just dual boot anyway.
[04:20] <richard_> can anyone please send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?

[04:21] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: I meant back up everything on ntfs. ntfs-3g might suddenly go crazy sometime and might wipe the ntfs partition, (in the extreme worst hopefully-never-happens case of course)
[04:21] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: uhm...
[04:21] <harisund> J_P: ah ... hmmm...perhaps somebody else might be able to help. I use xterm.
[04:21] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: hello. It didnt work prolly because it didnt mount my filesystem. It is the livecd system that is loaded
[04:22] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: then I would have lost my backup too :)
[04:22] <jenda> Can anyone help me burn CDs on my new laptop? Gnome-baker gives me the following output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20886
[04:22] <Captain_Fleming> harisund: on my ext3 it should be safe :)
[04:22] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: lol.
[04:22] <harisund> Captain_Fleming: yse, I am guessing it will...
[04:22] <Captain_Fleming> xikol...
[04:23] <J_P> harisund: How I do to xterm are white in black ?
[04:23] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: what do you mean by that?
[04:23] <harisund> J_P: sorry :( no idea.
[04:23] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: are you back on the live cd, or have you realised what you needed to do? and fixed it?
[04:23] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: I did the chmod etc but it didnt work. When I boot with the file cd, my home directory is diferent for example
[04:23] <J_P> anyone terminal (not gnome-terminal) can I use with white in black ?
[04:23] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: Lol...
[04:23] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: I realized that I have toi chmod it back, but this is not my filesystem
[04:23] <haresltd> harisund: i got the modem installed, but now it says  need to create a file in /etc/udev/rules.d and i cannot create the file there
[04:23] <TheGateKeeper> phaedrus44: http://www.nubuntu.org/about.php and you could probable use it as your home distro if you wanted to
[04:23] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: I have to mount it ro something, im looking for it right now
[04:24] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: do this: 'sudo mount /dev/<your drive> /mnt'
[04:24] <richard_> can anyone please send me a copy of their /etc/fonts folder?
[04:24] <harisund> haresltd: you need root permission if you want to do that.
[04:24] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: after that, you do 'sudo chmod 777 /mnt/etc'
[04:24] <harisund> richard_: I know you have asked this question like 3 times already. I think it will be hard to just send over an entire folder?
[04:24] <richard_> harisund: i can provide an email address
[04:24] <richard_> its not many files
[04:25] <haresltd> harisund: is there anyway to recover the root pw, whatever i set it to on install, it doesn't like it now :-/
[04:25] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: it is prolly the right thing now, ty
[04:25] <Captain_Fleming> xiko1: :)
[04:25] <harisund> haresltd: don't do that. use sudo -i to get a root terminal, using your own password
[04:25] <kartik> !webmin
[04:25] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[04:25] <richard_> harisund<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[04:25] <xiko1> Captain_Fleming: rebooting and testing again
[04:25] <haresltd> ah, nice, thx
[04:25] <Captain_Fleming> Ok xiko1

[04:26] <Captain_Fleming> Something with a fish...
[04:26] <qwerty2k> bluefish (i think its called that)
[04:26] <richard_> Captain_Fleming: Screem is a nice one
[04:27] <cdubya> I use gedit for php and html all the time
[04:27] <Captain_Fleming> yes :)
[04:27] <harisund> richard_: I had like 6 or 7 files in there, and two are symlinks to somewhere else. I have tarred it here: http://www.cct.lsu.edu/~hsunda3/fonts.tar
[04:27] <Captain_Fleming> bluefish, thnx qwerty2k :P
[04:27] <qwerty2k> np :)
[04:27] <Captain_Fleming> richard_: I know screem, and I personally do not like working on it...
[04:27] <snoops> Captain_Fleming eclipse handles most of that..
[04:28] <harisund> Can somebody quickly give me a suggestion whether a Turion64 processor can handle a k8 kernel?
[04:28] <jenda> I need help with Gnome-Baker. It has some permission trouble, it seems. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20886

[04:30] <lipe> Captain_Fleming: until next newbish thing, thanks again ;D
[04:30] <santa99> sorry false channel
[04:31] <Captain_Fleming> Ok, something really annoying...
[04:31] <quiet> santa99, signs?
[04:31] <santa99> quiet, i think some UTF-8 signs
[04:31] <harisund> quiet: I am guessing santa99's problem is with encoding or something.
[04:31] <quiet> change the font?
[04:31] <Captain_Fleming> I used to work on a larger resolution then this one (1024x768 is this one), but it does not want to 'allow' a higher resolution...
[04:31] <Captain_Fleming> I know sure it can handle it though...
[04:32] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, you must edit your xorg.conf
[04:32] <chungaroo> how do i hide a folder? google earth installed to my home directory and i want to hide it but still retain the links
[04:32] <Captain_Fleming> Any nvidia-xconfig thingy to do?
[04:32] <haresltd> oki, i have to reboot, brb and thanks a ton harisund, i hope this works :D
[04:32] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: I'll look into it :)
[04:32] <quiet> Captain_Fleming, does xorg.xonf have the higher modes?
[04:32] <santa99> harisund, it shows me instead a square with some numbers in it
[04:32] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, any folder with a . before will make it hidden
[04:32] <pp> Hi folks, can anyone recommend a package which will log all of the terminal/console messages (say during compiling a kernel) to a text file?
[04:32] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: which files do i have to modify to make all of my shortcuts work though?
[04:33] <harisund> pp: you could redirect the standard output to one file and the errors to another file for monitoring later.
[04:33] <nso> Hi
[04:33] <erUSUL> jenda: it seems a medium error (the blank cd) not a problem with permisions... (i read the lines about setuid root but afaics they seem harmless becouse cdrecord goes on with the operation)
[04:33] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, sorry but im not at all sure, try and see if it still works after hdiing it
[04:33] <Lane> Hey you guys I know I am getting pretty need but, Here we go again....Hamachi gave me this error on "hamachi start" : 17 09:32:19.650 [   0]  [11281]  tap: connect() failed 2 (No such file or directory)
[04:33] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: nope
[04:33] <nso> Is anyone there that can help me out?
[04:34] <santa99> harisund, ideas ?
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: Modes      "1024x768" "800x600" "720x350" "640x480"
[04:34] <doug_> Can anyone help me I tried to upgrade ubuntu and now when I try to start up my computer it says operating system not found
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: can I just add my resolution I want, or what?
[04:34] <jrib> nso: just ask your question and we can find out :)
[04:34] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, add "1280x1024"
[04:34] <pp> harisund : ah, that sounds about right how do I do that? make-pkg kernel image > /log.txt would that do it?
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> qwerty2k: thnx :)
[04:34] <qwerty2k> Captain_Fleming, then restart X then you should be able to select it
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> k
[04:34] <Captain_Fleming> I'm going to restart my entire computer by then :)
[04:34] <doug_> i put ubuntu on my wifes computer
[04:34] <harisund> pp: I am guessing make_kpkg kernel_image >output.log 2>error.log would be fine.
[04:34] <qwerty2k> make sure you add that res to the colour depth you are using though
[04:35] <erUSUL> !anyone > nso
[04:35] <pp> thanks mate!!
[04:35] <doug_> it asks to to have udates installed I installed them then restarted the computer and now it says operating system not found
[04:35] <harisund> sorry santa99 not used to that :(
[04:35] <nso> When I boot ubuntu, after the login screen it stays on the marroon colored background without doing the gnome loader and just doesnt move...is this an ati problem?
[04:36] <Lane>  Hey you guys I know I am getting pretty needy but, Here we go again....Hamachi gave me this error on "hamachi start" : 17 09:32:19.650 [   0]  [11281]  tap: connect() failed 2 (No such file or directory)
[04:36] <haresltd> okay, now i just need to know what to use as a dial for my isp, lolo
[04:36] <doug_> i tried to reinstall the OS and it won't let me partition the drives
[04:36] <jenda> erUSUL: And would that be the reason why it has never burned a CD right? Doubt it...
[04:36] <waspius> do u know a good dvd player?
[04:36] <doug_> it syas that i have no hard drives
[04:36] <pp> waspius vlc
[04:36] <santa99> harisund, what irc program du you use ?
[04:36] <qwerty2k> waspius, mplayer, vlc, totem
[04:37] <waspius> pp: i am using vlc but it does not seem to play a dvd movie
[04:37] <qwerty2k> waspius, you will need the decss to play copyprotected dvd's though
[04:37] <qwerty2k> !dvd
[04:37] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html. Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[04:37] <harisund> santa99: irssi
[04:37] <qwerty2k> you need the libdvdcss
[04:37] <waspius> qwerty2k: where will i get them from?
[04:37] <erUSUL> jenda: you can figure it out running cdrecord from comand line with sudo (or running gnomebaker with gksudo) this will give cdrecord all the perms
[04:37] <cdubya> santa99, just curious, but what language support do you have selected?
[04:38] <santa99> cdubya, german english
[04:38] <santa99> harisund, you are writing from the terminal with it ?
[04:38] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: any ideas?
[04:38] <MrRio> Hello :)
[04:39] <Intangir> how do you see what the latest updates you installed are?
[04:39] <Spitfireleet> how do i start X?
[04:39] <nso> When I boot ubuntu, after the login screen it stays on the marroon colored background without doing the gnome loader and just doesnt move...is this an ati problem?
[04:39] <Intangir> i just did some updates now all my fonts look like crap
[04:39] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, when you tried to launch it after renaming the folder did you use commandline or shortcut?
[04:39] <qwerty2k> Spitfireleet, startx
[04:39] <harisund> santa99: yes. And I use UTF-8 when I connect from Putty.
[04:39] <RalleAb> does ubuntu have the dir opt/kde3/
[04:39] <Amwyll> Hello, everybody!
[04:39] <cdubya> RalleAb, I suspect only if you install kubuntu-desktop
[04:40] <harisund> besides, I doubt anything gets installed in /opt , unless you do it yourself.
[04:40] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: no, i used the gnome panel menu
[04:40] <santa99> harisund, I think I'm also using UTF-8
[04:40] <HEFO> HI
[04:40] <santa99> harisund, do you know how i can change the locale variable
[04:40] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, you will need to edit the pannel shortcut to update to the new location, try launchin it in a terminal (just too check) first before you edit anything though
[04:41] <mike-e> !easysource
[04:41] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:41] <HEFO> i have some problems installing ubuntu in my lap top
[04:41] <nso> I cant get past the gnome loader
[04:41] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: ok, i'll be right back with that..
[04:41] <DJAdmiral> HEFO: what kind of problems?
[04:41] <Amwyll> Can someone give me a hint as to how do I ADD a NIC to a working system?
[04:41] <doug_> ok anybody
[04:42] <jrib> nso: you get to the login screen, enter your username and password, and gnome tries to load but fails, is this accurate?  Do you get any errors?
[04:42] <HEFO> i have a laptop with external cdrom...when ubuntu loads (better say try) ...it get stucked ant automatic turns off the loader
[04:42] <kashual> :0)
[04:42] <doug_> i installed the updates for ybuntu on my wifes computer and now when I restarted it it says operating system nt found
[04:42] <doug_> any help?
[04:42] <pp> if anyone here is on an apple powerbook I would really appreciate a look at your kernel .config file :-)
[04:42] <HEFO> and says something about a box..
[04:42] <nso> jrib: Nope thats correct
[04:42] <jenda> erUSUL: In fact... running it as root worked.
[04:42] <mike-e> Amwyll : put it in the machine and boot it up?
[04:42] <kashual> doug check your bootloader config
[04:43] <doug_> i can't even get into the computer now
[04:43] <jrib> nso: ok, are you ona  different computer now?
[04:43] <jenda> erUSUL: And... I just noticed you suggested it :)
[04:43] <DJAdmiral> doug_: something probably went wrong with GRUB
[04:43] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: um, i don't know how to launch from the terminal.
[04:43] <doug_> yes
[04:43] <Amwyll> mike-e: Right. :) What about drivers?
[04:43] <qwerty2k> doug_, load up the livecd and reinstall grub
[04:43] <kashual> doug use the install cd
[04:43] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: how do i edit the panel?
[04:43] <pp> doug_: go into openfirmware
[04:43] <nso> jrib: nuhuh I'm on the live cd
[04:43] <DJAdmiral> doug_: what qwerty2k said
[04:43] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, i think its just 'googleearth' in terminal
[04:43] <doug_> i tried the install cd and it won't let me past partition
[04:43] <cdubya> heh, doug_, it's gonna blow.....too many suggestions.....:
[04:43] <cdubya> :)
[04:43] <jenda> So... how can I make sure cdrecord always has all permissions?
[04:44] <doug_> haha
[04:44] <jrib> nso: ok are you comfortable checking the permissions of ~/.Xauthority and ~/.ICEauthority on your system, or do you want me to walk you through that?
[04:44] <kashual> doug type at boot command expert
[04:44] <qwerty2k> doug_,  dont reinstall, simply install grub (the bootloader) back into the mbr
[04:44] <doug_> the computer acts like i have nop hard drives
[04:44] <kashual> and boot up..... later it comes an dialog for config grub
[04:44] <doug_> with the live cd?
[04:44] <erUSUL> jenda: i do not know. it should have all perms. hang on minute
[04:44] <nso> jrib: umm a walk-through would be nice lol
[04:44] <cdubya> doug_, yep, try what they're suggesting
[04:45] <Spitfireleet> "user not authorized to use x server, aborting"
[04:45] <doug_> ok , so use the live cd to install the bootloader
[04:45] <doug_> ?
[04:45] <qwerty2k> yes
[04:45] <doug_> ok brb
[04:45] <qwerty2k> boot into livecd open up a terminal then install the bootloader
[04:45] <qwerty2k> !grub
[04:45] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[04:45] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: ok i went to the menu editor and changed the location, but now the icon is missing. i think it lost the link to the icon in the process
[04:45] <kashual> Spifireleet outsch
[04:45] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, does it load?
[04:46] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: yeah, it loads from the panel shortcut
[04:46] <erUSUL> jenda: during install you misconfigured cdrecord. try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure cdrecord' and answer yes
[04:46] <qwerty2k> chungaroo,  and its hidden in your home?
[04:46] <kashual> Spifireleet need to chmod user and reconfig x server
[04:46] <HEFO>  busybox v1.01 (debian 1:1.01-4ubuntu3) built-in shell (ash)
[04:46] <HEFO> and this: /bint/sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
[04:46] <HEFO> is the error i got
[04:46] <HEFO> after the loader stops
[04:46] <jrib> nso: ok, since you are on the livecd, we'll just mount your partition and then take a look.  Go to system > administration > disks and mount your linux partition that contains /home.  Let me know when you're finished
[04:46] <Pensacola> I want to format an external hd to use FAT32 so I can use it in Windows and in Ubuntu, how can I do that?
[04:46] <grogoreo> hi
[04:46] <Spitfireleet> how do i do that?
[04:47] <grogoreo> from the CLI, how can I see a list of all my groups?
[04:47] <chungaroo> qwerty2k: yup. the only thing now is there's a file in my home called googleearth (properties says the filetype is: link)
[04:47] <synic> grogoreo: id <username>
[04:47] <pollypocket> hey there, last nite I install firefox-win on WINE and it worked with the sound and everything. Today, the sound doesnt work in either firefox for wine or firefox for linux

[04:48] <santa99> does anybody here know how to change the locale varible
[04:48] <synic> zool2005: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[04:48] <kashual> Spifireleet read the documentary or ask someone here for that
[04:48] <grogoreo> erUSUL, (though it seems to be /etc/group)
[04:48] <Amwyll> If I add a new NIC to Ubuntu box (different make from existing one), will it auto-detect and automatically install proper drivers?
[04:48] <richb> zool2005:   try "cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[04:49] <waspius> where is the sourcelist located?
[04:49] <zool2005> synic, cheers

[04:51] <jrib> nso: ok open up a terminal and type:  cd /media/name_of_partition             what is the name by the way?
[04:52] <qwerty2k> chungaroo, not sure about the other thing, sorry

[04:52] <qwerty2k> waspius,  sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:52] <beesandflowers> erUSUL: i am sure the cd is not broken. had problems installing the live cd before so i downloaded the alternate; cd reader is fine as suse enterprise installed fine (dont like the distro though)
[04:53] <qwerty2k> waspius, if you're using kde though it will be kwrite or kate instead of gedit
[04:53] <qwerty2k> :D
[04:53] <waspius> qwerty2k: oh ok..
