[09:09] <mattycoze> andruk; is there a way to autoupdate the lists for moblock?
[09:09] <bazhang> everyone should read this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy
[09:10] <chetnick> bazhang: great doc.
[09:10] <mattycoze> tarelerulz did you tell it to stop blocking port 80?
[09:10] <bazhang> chetnick: so true
[09:10] <revilodraw> firefox waits for ages before loading the pages... my sister has the same laptop running xp and its way faster running internet explorer at loading pafes
[09:10] <chetnick> i found 95% of the stuff that i needed there
[09:10] <tarelerulz> I never read anything about how to use moblock .  The site said nothing about that. You just thought you install it and it did the rest .
[09:11] <tarelerulz> What is on port 80 ? just asking
[09:11] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Does it display local pages fast? Sounds like a DNS rather than rendering issue
[09:11] <dave_> i just did a synaptic install and amarok is still doing the same thing when i click on the icon it just does nothing
[09:11] <winkman> revilodraw: This is probably not the right place for this
[09:11] <andruk> mattycoze: i dont know, sorry
[09:11] <Filled-void> revilodraw disable IPv6? I think that might help however ou might want to confirm with someone
[09:11] <mattycoze> ok
[09:11] <DarkW0lf> dave_: try right clicking?
[09:11] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang, fyda, filled-void: thaks for ya'lls help
[09:11]  * DarkW0lf shrugs
[09:11] <bazhang> ubuntu wiki + www.google.com = 90% of questions here solved :}
[09:11] <Filled-void> NeT_DeMoN, Enjoy putting fire on your desktop :D
[09:11] <NeT_DeMoN> lmao
[09:11] <revilodraw> i think ipv6 is disabled, how do icheck
[09:11] <mattycoze> andruk actually i contacted Morpheus once, lol he was fairly helpful
[09:11] <bazhang> no worries
[09:12] <Filled-void> !ipv6
[09:12] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[09:12] <NeT_DeMoN> filled-void: what does that do anyways?
[09:12] <DarkW0lf> Filled-void: I like the rain one :P
[09:12] <mattycoze> Morpheus is the dude who made Moblock i mean
[09:12] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: i dunno, what is a local page lol? my modem interface page?
[09:12] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: it draws fire on your screen :P
[09:12] <Filled-void> NeT_DeMoN, It puts fire on your desktop :D
[09:12] <mosno> DarkW0lf: evaporation effect is in the next release ;)
[09:12] <NeT_DeMoN> what does the rain and fire do
[09:12] <Filled-void> Darkion_, lol
[09:12] <NeT_DeMoN> oh
[09:12] <NeT_DeMoN> where
[09:12] <dave_> no w, i do have kubuntu-desktop,xubuntu-desktop,edubuntu-desktop,enabled in synaptic maybe some problem on one of the other os's is causing an all aroud problem with amarok
[09:12] <bazhang> NeT_DeMoN: lets you write with fire--be prepared to hard restart :}
[09:12] <NeT_DeMoN> i dont see any?
[09:12] <DarkW0lf> mosno: ooh sounds schnazzy
[09:13] <Filled-void> NeT_DeMoN, pretty much nothing :D
[09:13] <Ahri> hi, i'm running a different distro but would like to test out the ubuntu kernel and modules, where's the best place to get these?
[09:13] <NeT_DeMoN> ok
[09:13] <DarkW0lf> dave_: could be
[09:13] <NeT_DeMoN> wheres the fire and rain though
[09:13] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Go to a page, then do File -> save page as ( webpage complete ) then open the saved .html file
[09:13] <bazhang> !source
[09:13] <ubotu> You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[09:13] <dave_> when i right click it says the normal things add to desktop add to panel, add menu
[09:13] <andruk> mattycoze: did he get you out of the matrix?  ;-)
[09:13] <NeT_DeMoN> i think i have them both enabled
[09:13] <DarkW0lf> I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy
[09:13] <NeT_DeMoN> but i dont see any of it
[09:13] <NeT_DeMoN> same here darkwolf
[09:13] <bazhang> keybindings NeT_DeMoN
[09:13] <Ahri> bazhang: was that a reply to me?
[09:13] <mattycoze> andurk lol haha
[09:14] <bazhang> Ahri: a failed reply :}
[09:14] <Filled-void> NeT_DeMoN, Paint fire on screen i CCSM
[09:14] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang:key binding?
[09:14] <DarkW0lf> You'd think though that a program that runs on KDE would be compatible with Kubuntu which runs KDE...
[09:14] <bazhang> NeT_DeMoN: key combo = keybinding
[09:14] <tarelerulz> I don't want to sound dumb if you install some Linux to a usb thumb drive ?  I do you use that install to install  Linux to a hard drive in computer.  they are not made for use .  They are made to run on the computer . I mean does the normal  7.10 ubuntu when you install it have the install some where on it ?
[09:14] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: ahhh
[09:14] <Ahri> bazhang: ah, i'm running gentoo, so i don't have apt ;) just want to manually snatch the kernel and modules
[09:14] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: by the way, the "Super" key is the windows key :P
[09:15] <bazhang> !info source
[09:15] <ubotu> Package source does not exist in gutsy
[09:15] <DarkW0lf> Ahri: Gentoo has emerge, no?
[09:15] <bazhang> ugh
[09:15] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: i noticed
[09:15] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: Just thought you'd might like to know :P
[09:15] <Ahri> DarkW0lf: er yes. it doesn't have access to the ubuntu source repos...
[09:15] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: what keybinding is it, its not on my list?
[09:15] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile Ahri
[09:16] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: thanks anyways
[09:16] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: on mine it's Shift-Super then mouse click
[09:16] <dave_> ok im over it, so should i just try rythembox or exaile/ and thanks for all your guy's help
[09:16] <DarkW0lf> then Shift-Super-C to clear
[09:16] <bazhang> NeT_DeMoN: now that you are a compiz master--best to ask the wise folks in #compiz-fusion
[09:17] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: ok, thanks
[09:17] <bazhang> no problem
[09:17] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: holy crap!!!!
[09:17] <DarkW0lf> eh?
[09:17] <Ahri> bazhang: that's cool, but really i want the latest binary kernel shipped with ubuntu ;)
[09:17] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: What happened?
[09:17] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: this is awesome
[09:17] <DarkW0lf> ah
[09:17] <DarkW0lf> oh the joys of Pyromania
[09:17] <Filled-void> NeT_DeMoN, lol
[09:17] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: dude, i have fire :P
[09:17] <dave_> i think this may have something to do with amarok on my other versions of ubuntu that im running,-ubuntu-desktop,kubuntu-desktop etc.
[09:18] <DarkW0lf> without the second/third degree burns :P
[09:18] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: lmao
[09:18] <poeticrpm> whats going on with amarok?
[09:18] <DarkW0lf> have you got water enabled?
[09:18] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: yeah
[09:18] <bazhang> Ahri: packages.ubuntu.com is the place to search :}
[09:18] <DarkW0lf> try shift-F9 and Shift-F8
[09:18] <DarkW0lf> to turn them off hit them again
[09:18] <NeT_DeMoN> awesome
[09:19] <DarkW0lf> rain and wiper blades :P
[09:19] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: ok, thanks for telling me the combos :)
[09:19] <revilodraw> firefox takes 36seconds to start loading myspace.com... there is a problem here... and ipv6 is disabled
[09:19] <DarkW0lf> ew myspace
[09:19] <NeT_DeMoN> myspace??
[09:19] <DarkW0lf> myspace is bloated and flawed
[09:19] <bazhang> myspace problem most likely
[09:20] <NeT_DeMoN> myspace: a place for fags :)
[09:20] <poeticrpm> haha.. wow
[09:20] <bazhang> !ohmy | NeT_DeMoN
[09:20] <ubotu> NeT_DeMoN: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[09:20] <DarkW0lf> speaking of fags... time for a cigarette...
[09:20] <revilodraw> to all... lol who cares what website.. i mean firefox is sloooow for me
[09:20] <notgod> mmm, cigarette.
[09:20] <DarkW0lf> curse my addiction to these cancer sticks
[09:20] <NeT_DeMoN> im stealing my connection so my mozilla is naturally slow :P
[09:20] <poeticrpm> Darkw0lf.. i think ill join you, haha
[09:20] <notgod> mmm, cancer.
[09:20] <NeT_DeMoN> cigs sound good right now
[09:21] <notgod> agreed.
[09:21] <dave_> smokin mine right now
[09:21] <NeT_DeMoN> newports any one??
[09:21] <tarelerulz> I am not dumb and missing something. There is different from have Ubuntu install on the usb thumb drive and have some installer on the usb thumb drive.  So you can set the bios to boot from the usb thumb and use it to install Ubuntu to the hard drives in the computer  is there not ?
[09:21] <notgod> is linux-wlan-gn a package?
[09:21] <revilodraw> help me with my firefox slowness lol, not ur smoking addictrions
[09:21] <NeT_DeMoN> lmao
[09:21] <notgod> american spirits. :)
[09:21] <dave_> sure havent had a menthol in a long time
[09:21] <poeticrpm> is it only firefox?
[09:21] <DarkW0lf> and off we go like sheep... to get our nicotine fixation
[09:21] <dave_> check
[09:21] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[09:21] <NeT_DeMoN> indeed
[09:22] <revilodraw> poeticrpm; yes kazekase is blazing fast
[09:22] <DarkW0lf> screw going outside
[09:22] <notgod> revilodraw: have you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 yet?
[09:22]  * DarkW0lf lights up inside
[09:22] <dave_> lol
[09:22] <NeT_DeMoN> fire and water at the same time
[09:22] <revilodraw> notgod; ipv6 is off
[09:22] <NeT_DeMoN> awesome
[09:22] <chetnick> hey, i have unresolved problem with firefox and opera, try to open vayama.com and click on calendar (date) it should open the calendar on right side, it does not open for me on ubuntu, what is the problem any ideas?
[09:22] <NeT_DeMoN> it would be even more awesome if the water put the fire out :P
[09:22] <notgod> revilodraw: and your DNS servers are correct?
[09:23] <revilodraw> notgod; hmm i dont actually know what that is
[09:23] <dean5> msg NickServ IDENTIFY blue808
[09:23] <dave_> is running opendns worth the effort of setting up on ubuntu
[09:23] <notgod> revilodraw: who is your ISP?
[09:23] <bazhang> uhoh--time to change passwords dean5
[09:23] <poeticrpm> I would say to delete your profile and start one again
[09:23] <dave_> anyone
[09:23] <poeticrpm> you arent using fasterfox are you?
[09:24] <DarkW0lf> do it before someone beats you to it..
[09:24] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: how do i disable the water again, alt+shift+F8 or F9 right??
[09:24] <bazhang> dave_: try it and find out :}
[09:24] <DarkW0lf> ah...... sweet sweet tobacco :P
[09:24] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[09:24] <revilodraw> notgos; lol i was using my uni proxies... sorry
[09:24] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: nah just hit shift-F9 again
[09:24] <DarkW0lf> same with the wiper switch :P
[09:24] <Thornsberry> bazhang: I fixed it.
[09:24] <white_eagle> when I try to enable the water, my computer crashes
[09:24] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf:thanks
[09:25] <Thornsberry> bazhang: Turns out it was a problem with Firefox and not with Ubuntu.
[09:25] <DarkW0lf> white_eagle: what kind of gfx card do you have?
[09:25] <notgod> chetnick: hmm, seems to be a JS window, shoudl work (not on my ubuntu currently as I am working out network issues) -- might you have disabled JS?
[09:25] <white_eagle> DarkW0lf: ati radeon xpress 200m
[09:25] <bazhang> Thornsberry: oh good. you all sorted then?
[09:25] <NeT_DeMoN> i have a myspace problem, i hate it but yet i have one and always on it, can any one tell me why :P
[09:25] <revilodraw> yay firefox is fast again! thanks everyone
[09:25] <DarkW0lf> white_eagle: how does your compy crash?
[09:25] <dave_> does anyone think konqueror is better than firefox i havent really had a chance to try it out
[09:26] <bazhang> NeT_DeMoN: just say no
[09:26] <DarkW0lf> like... does it lock, or crash and burn?
[09:26] <chetnick> notgod: might you have disabled JS : how to check that?
[09:26] <tarelerulz> Is there a way to use a usb thumb drive as an installer like you would  a cd ?
[09:26] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: lmao
[09:26] <bazhang> haha
[09:26] <white_eagle> DarkW0lf: the water drops appear, but I cannot do anything except move the mouse cursor, and when I try to disable them, nothing happens
[09:26] <Thornsberry> bazhang: Yeah, the problem was that the default font that is set in Firefox wasn't something that had the Pashto script in it.  So I just changed the default font for Arabic to the Pashto font and now it works fine.
[09:26] <DarkW0lf> white_eagle: pressing shift-F9 does nothing?
[09:26] <bazhang> Thornsberry: excellent news :}
[09:27] <notgod> chetnick: you set up your machine? Or did someone set it up for you? unless you specifically disabled it, it shoudl be enabled.
[09:27] <chetnick> i set it up java scrpit should be enabled
[09:27] <Thornsberry> bazhang: Thanks for you help.  I don't think I would have solved the problem without it.
[09:27] <chetnick> i didnt disable
[09:27] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: are you on here all the time, i was in here the other dat and saw you, i think you tried to help me but my connection was reset
[09:27] <bazhang> Thornsberry: you did 90% of it :}
[09:28] <notgod> chetnick: just a stab in the dark, then. That's not the problem. sorry. :(
[09:28] <white_eagle> DarkW0lf: You miss understood me. When I press shift-F9 the drops APPEAR slowly, and my computer crashes, and I cannot disable them with the same command
[09:28] <bazhang> NeT_DeMoN: too much it seems :}
[09:28] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang:lol
[09:28] <chetnick> notgod:  :)
[09:28] <white_eagle> DarkW0lf: but I can move the mouse cursor
[09:28] <ogre> can some walk me through installing this cool conky script? I have my conkyrc open http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=70929&forumpage=0
[09:28] <u_angel> guys, i deleted a config file for a package. how do i reinstall the package and force it to put the config file back?
[09:28] <NeT_DeMoN> im getting addicted to this place, seems like home, more then yahoo ever did :P
[09:28] <notgod> white_eagle: does ctrl-alt-backspace restart your X session?
[09:28] <white_eagle> n
[09:29] <white_eagle> no
[09:29] <dave_> can anyone suggest some good greasemonkey user scripts to install
[09:29] <white_eagle> it simply crashes
[09:29] <white_eagle> nothing else
[09:29] <andruk> should i use envy to install proprietary drivers if the restricted-drivers-manager has failed?
[09:29] <notgod> dave_: for what purpose?
[09:29] <chetnick> ogre: still didnt install conky?
[09:29] <NeT_DeMoN> what does grease mokey do, i have it, just dont know what to do with it
[09:29] <riaal> My server has a hardwarefaliur and shuts down now and then, I have configured bios to make ut rebot automaticly, now I just need it to do a dhcp request when its running again, any sugestions?
[09:29] <bazhang> andruk: envy is not supported nor recommended
[09:30] <ogre> chetnick:  I got it up & running. just want to change it to look like that one
[09:30] <Xer0> gutsy ftw!
[09:30] <notgod> NeT_DeMoN: sounds like a worthy candidate for uninstall ;)
[09:30] <NeT_DeMoN> notgod: lol
[09:30] <andruk> bazhang: am i sol then, or what should i use?
[09:30] <dave_> well most of them that ive found seem to be minor im looking for some really good changes to google,lifehacker,or just any major site
[09:30] <DarkW0lf> Hey I've got a general linux question: How do you change the font in the terminal windows
[09:30] <NeT_DeMoN> i basically just download everything for my browsers
[09:30] <riaal> write a script that checks the interface and then run dhclient if its down? and put it in cron?
[09:30] <riaal> anyone?
[09:30] <white_eagle> I'll try the effects now, If I leave, that means i rebooted my computer
[09:30] <DarkW0lf> now Terminal, but the ctrl-alt-F1 terminal screens
[09:30] <u_angel> apt-get reinstall?
[09:31] <riaal> how to make my server run a dhcp request on boot?
[09:31] <notgod> NeT_DeMoN: seriously, though, if you don't need it, remove it. It's got a very specific and creepy purpose, imho.
[09:31] <chetnick> ogre copy this conf file http://www.howtoforge.com/conky_system_monitor_on_ubuntu704 and if you have black backgorund i sugest to change black to white in conf file
[09:31] <bazhang> andruk: some people report success with it--just letting you know that the ubuntu gods (and ops) frown on that
[09:31] <DarkW0lf> *Not Terminal
[09:31] <DarkW0lf> oh yes I also have a question reguarding DHCP
[09:31] <uasash> how to use Gfax i need man
[09:31] <riaal> does cron run a script with root privilage?
[09:31] <NeT_DeMoN> notgod: what is its purpose, i might want it, i just dont know what it does, if i need to learn how to use it, i'll google it :P
[09:32] <andruk> bazhang: okay, thanks.
[09:32] <DarkW0lf> every time I restart Ubuntu, even loging out, my IP address gets released. How do I set it up to do a DHCP request every time I restart?
[09:32] <bazhang> andruk: and dont mention automatix :}
[09:32] <dave_>  or any STYLISH user scripts for google
[09:32] <NeT_DeMoN> notgod: or ask bazhang, he seems to know everything about ubuntu
[09:32] <u_angel> is ther enayone that can help?
[09:32] <riaal> DarkW0lf: same question as me then..
[09:33] <Xer0> I'm experiencing my machine becoming rather sluggish...using Nvidia restricted drivers and I have a beefy machine - Due to running compiz/avant/conky together?
[09:33] <andruk> bazhang: lol, ive done that before...never again...  i heard that they were working towards compatibility?
[09:33] <NeT_DeMoN> you can change the font in the terminal?
[09:33] <ogre> chetnick:  I have it running already. I just want to change it to look like this conky http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=70929&forumpage=0 its more than just a txt file its several files and .sh scripts I just need to know how to set that 1 up
[09:33] <NeT_DeMoN> like different colors?
[09:33] <NeT_DeMoN> or just style?
[09:33] <riaal> I'm in a bit if a panic situatuon here, my server is even running on UPS power, I can't aford it not to be online, really need a quck fix for this
[09:33] <nabcore> How do I configure my ubuntu 7.10 machine to only come up in a non-graphical way? I know how to do this under RHEL, I set the /etc/inittab to runlevel 3
[09:33] <DarkW0lf> there is a way to change colours in Runlevel 3...
[09:33] <Wing> Xer0: Eye candy never helps performance.
[09:33] <bazhang> andruk: I heard that too--I'm agnostic on envy--just letting you know on the general reaction youll get if you mention here during daylight hours :}
[09:34] <andruk> lol
[09:34] <DarkW0lf> nabcore: Probably the same way
[09:34] <white_eagle> see, I had to restart my x session, like you said, no reboot was required
[09:34] <NeT_DeMoN> any one know the purpose for grease monkey though?
[09:34] <|_ocke> should i install adobe flash or gnash? opinions
[09:34] <white_eagle> although the pc stopped responding
[09:34] <dave_> for some reason i just love to tweak my computer,my os's,websites, but i spend so little time actually on the web its weird i just love tweaking stuff. I going to school for computer and electronics engineering
[09:34] <white_eagle> gnash
[09:34] <|_ocke> im concerned more with speed and compatibility than not having proprietary software
[09:34] <|_ocke> is gnash better technically?
[09:34] <white_eagle> At me It is faster
[09:35] <riaal> Does cron run as root?
[09:35] <ogre> chetnick:  any idea how to do it?
[09:35] <white_eagle> I don't know for the others
[09:35] <bazhang> |_ocke: faster but sometimes problematic
[09:35] <dave_> anyone been on firefox 3 yet or gran paridiso or whatever its called
[09:35] <andruk> bazhang: envy seems to be fairly nice...  any idea why the godz dont like it (besides supporting somebody else's software)?
[09:35] <Wing> |_ocke: gnash doesn't work half the damn time. Adobe flash works fine.
[09:35] <|_ocke> are there a lot of problems with it? or just a few?
[09:35] <revilodraw> my sister's dell inspiron 6400 running xp is waaayy louder than mine running ubuntu... and yes everything is on max
[09:35] <Wing> *Unless you're on 64bit. And then Adobe Flash becomes just as big a thorn as Gnash
[09:35] <bazhang> andruk: because then people here would have nothing to do?
[09:35] <|_ocke> this computer performs pretty darn well so i dont think slow is much of an issue
[09:36] <Xer0> Wing: Even with beefy video card/etc? I see no evidence in top/conky that x.org is eating resources
[09:36] <|_ocke> i ahve a 64 bit celeron 420 processor
[09:36] <|_ocke> i ahve 32 bit ubuntu installed though
[09:36] <|_ocke> could i install 64bit ubuntu on it?
[09:36] <bazhang> sure
[09:36] <andruk> bazhang: lol, ah, i see
[09:36] <DarkW0lf> |_ocke: having problems in firefox with flash?
[09:36] <NeT_DeMoN> seriously, any one know the purpose of grease mankey
[09:36] <NeT_DeMoN> monkey^^
[09:36] <Xer0> to be uninstalled?
[09:36] <Wing> Xer0: Try shutting them off and see what the difference is. That's the easiest place to start before you start hunting down more obscure issues.
[09:36] <|_ocke> DarkW0lf, no, i havent decided which to install yet
[09:36] <bazhang> andruk: that is not the official reason of course haha
[09:36] <|_ocke> this is a fresh 7.10 install on a computer i just bought earlier today
[09:36] <DarkW0lf> ok this is what I did: I firstly installed the plugins it told me: Flash_Nonfree and Gnash
[09:36] <blood_killer> I'm using Ubuntu 7.10. And I can't enable Visual Efects.. why?!
[09:37] <dave_> just to do minor changes to code, i dont think it s all that really
[09:37] <Xer0> kk, gracias wing
[09:37] <DarkW0lf> then I went and got the latest version from the adobe site
[09:37] <DarkW0lf> hang on a sec while I get the URL for it
[09:37] <|_ocke> i'm going to see how long I can have it running without restarting since the very first time it was booted
[09:37] <NeT_DeMoN> what happend to the "ubuntu" emblem that was on the cube from 7.04
[09:37] <NeT_DeMoN> i miss that
[09:37] <|_ocke> i'm on the first boot since install still now
[09:37] <andruk> bazhang: true, but official reasons are rarely the most compelling, imho...but just for kicks...what are the official reason, if you dont mind?
[09:37] <NeT_DeMoN> gave it more style
[09:37] <Wing> |_ocke: You *COULD* do 64bit, but if you feel the need to deal with any variety of proprietary software, 64bit is the biggest hassle in the entire world.
[09:37] <dave_> later and thanks everyone for your help

[09:38] <bazhang> blood_killer: try in appearance setting it to either basic or advanced/custom, then installing compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-gnome
[09:38] <twiztr> My monitor runs at 1200X900 or something, and works fine, but when I try to set it to anything lower, or any program that changes the res, all I get is a garbled bunch of diagonal line things.
[09:38] <ogre> can anyone help me install this conky script? its more than just 1 txt file and its very confusing to someone new like me. http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=70929&forumpage=0
[09:38] <Tyczek> hi... I still have issues with flash on mozilla
[09:38] <bazhang> !envy | andruk
[09:38] <ubotu> andruk: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[09:39] <DarkW0lf> |_ocke: then I grabbed the tarball, and ran it, installing it where firefox was and it seemed to work
[09:39] <NeT_DeMoN> any one know why the light on my laptop screen keeps going out and i have to turn it off for awhile to get it to stay on?
[09:39] <NeT_DeMoN> laptop monitor i should say
[09:39] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: explain
[09:39] <revilodraw> i have ipv6 disabled, but my firefox is so sloooow...
[09:39] <Wing> See, Restricted Manager would be nice... If it worked with custom kernels.
[09:39] <NeT_DeMoN> like i will have my computer will be in for awhile ans the monitors light will go out
[09:40] <NeT_DeMoN> and^^
[09:40] <NeT_DeMoN> like the moitor still works
[09:40] <DarkW0lf> |_ocke: from what I can tell the version of flash plugin is version 8 and the latest is version 9
[09:40] <NeT_DeMoN> just i cant see anything because the lights out
[09:40] <DarkW0lf> after I installed version 9 it ran well
[09:40] <Wing> Or even the server kernel.
[09:41] <Xer0> NeT_DeMoN, are you on a laptop?
[09:41] <revilodraw> any way to return firefox to default preferences in about:config
[09:41] <NeT_DeMoN> Xer0: yeah
[09:41] <NeT_DeMoN> the same one that does it
[09:41] <Xer0> NeT_DeMoN, when it goes out, can you re-raise it by using the function key?
[09:41] <NeT_DeMoN> its the only computer i got till i bhave my new one built
[09:41] <NeT_DeMoN> Xer0: no
[09:41] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: could it be a weird standby thing for the screen?
[09:42] <Xer0> it completley kills the backlight?
[09:42] <NeT_DeMoN> i was told it might be a virus thats effecting my fan and the light goes out because its hot
[09:42] <NeT_DeMoN> Xer0:yeah
[09:42] <Xer0> a virus in ubuntu? unlikely.
[09:42] <Tyczek> Download done.
[09:42] <Tyczek> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[09:42] <Tyczek> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[09:42] <NeT_DeMoN> i piss too many hackers off :P
[09:43] <bazhang> !flash | Tyczek
[09:43] <ubotu> Tyczek: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[09:43] <DarkW0lf> yeah do that :P
[09:43] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[09:43] <riaal> my server has a hardware failure and even thow its running on UPS power ut rebots now and then, I have configured bios to reboot it but it doesn't run any dhcp request
[09:43] <solitaire> is gnash actually usable now?
[09:43] <Tyczek> !restricted

[09:44] <Wing> NeT_DeMoN: Word of advice: Anyone saying there's a virus that affects your backlight - don't ever take technical advice from them again. And anyone that describes themselves as a hacker in any context even remotely similar to that, stab them in the eye.
[09:44] <DarkW0lf> solitaire: I think so
[09:44] <twiztr> So, no one has any idea then?
[09:44] <NeT_DeMoN> wing: lmao, ok
[09:44] <bazhang> sorry twiztr what was your question?
[09:44] <twiztr> My monitor runs at 1200X900 or something, and works fine, but when I try to set it to anything lower, or any program that changes the res, all I get is a garbled bunch of diagonal line things.
[09:44] <DarkW0lf> Wing: in my IT course next year I get to learn how to hack for security :P
[09:44]  * Xer0 hands Wing a beer
[09:44] <DarkW0lf> Ethical hacking and all that :P
[09:44] <NeT_DeMoN> .::ZoNe_VoRTeX::. killed my windoze
[09:44] <revilodraw> does anyone know why browsing is so slow on my laptop, when its so fast on my sister's, and we have the exact same laptop.. i run ubuntu, she runs xp
[09:45] <NeT_DeMoN> poor vista
[09:45] <bazhang> !resolution
[09:45] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:45] <NeT_DeMoN> never knew what was coming
[09:45] <twiztr> revilodraw: Usually it's the other way around. lol
[09:45] <NeT_DeMoN> :P
[09:45] <kuwabara> Hi, there. I'd like to sort the installed packages installed on my system, sorted by the size they take on the disk. Is there a way to get this ?
[09:45] <Wing> DarkW0lf: Don't tell me, you're one of those Penn State IST SRA majors.
[09:45] <amitprakash> revilodraw, maybe shes got faster fox installed
[09:45] <revilodraw> twiztr; i know, thats the point
[09:45] <bazhang> twiztr: see the link above from the bot
[09:45] <twiztr> bazhang: Thanks.
[09:45] <revilodraw> amitprakash; no she doesnt have fasterfox, but i do
[09:45] <DarkW0lf> revilodraw: maybe try a reinstall using synaptic?
[09:46] <revilodraw> darkwolf; a firefox reinstall
[09:46] <NeT_DeMoN> any of yall play halo?
[09:46] <amitprakash> o.O thats weird
[09:46] <Xer0> try #halo
[09:46] <NeT_DeMoN> theres a halo channel?
[09:46] <NeT_DeMoN> holy crap!
[09:46] <Xer0> sure.
[09:46]  * Xer0 shrugs
[09:46] <NeT_DeMoN> i got booted
[09:47] <Xer0> hm, they prob heard of you
[09:47] <NeT_DeMoN> like perm banned
[09:47] <NeT_DeMoN> i dont think i want to go in there
[09:47] <NeT_DeMoN> if it is real
[09:47] <DarkW0lf> revilodraw: yeah in Synaptic Package Manager seach for Firefox and right-click and select Mark for ReInstall
[09:47]  * DarkW0lf shrugs
[09:47] <DarkW0lf> revilodraw: just a suggestion
[09:47] <revilodraw> darkwolf; yeah worth a try
[09:48] <DarkW0lf> could be something conflicting with it
[09:48] <NeT_DeMoN> they might say "its the bastard who kills everybody and plays "barbie girl" over the radio" :P
[09:48] <Tyczek> allright it works now xD
[09:48] <DarkW0lf> if it doesn't fix it, then try Mark for Complete Removal and then go to Applications > Add & Remove Applications and install it again
[09:48] <Xer0> Anyone use Avant window navigator?
[09:48] <DarkW0lf> not that I know of :P
[09:48] <Xer0> gah
[09:48] <DarkW0lf> I guess I use Compiz Fusion...
[09:48] <Tyczek> is here who uses mplayer with flgrx?
[09:49] <amitprakash> how do i avoid auto deletion of packages downloaded to /var/cache/apt/archives?
[09:49] <NeT_DeMoN> how do i ask the bot about something? specifically grease monkey
[09:49] <NeT_DeMoN> ??
[09:49] <amitprakash> NeT_DeMoN, that shudnt be ubuntu support now :S
[09:49] <bazhang> he likely does not know that one
[09:49] <NeT_DeMoN> ok
[09:50] <NeT_DeMoN> damn
[09:50] <Jordan_U_> NeT_DeMoN, /msg ubotu <whatever> , most things won't work though, it's kind of an interactive FAQ, nothing more :)
[09:50] <bazhang> http://diveintogreasemonkey.org/install/greasemonkey.html
[09:50] <Jordan_U_> NeT_DeMoN, You can ask us though :)
[09:50] <NeT_DeMoN> ok, what is grease mankeys purpose
[09:50] <NeT_DeMoN> monkeys^^
[09:50] <bazhang> NeT_DeMoN: see the link above
[09:50] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: ok
[09:51] <NeT_DeMoN> my connection is slow
[09:51] <DarkW0lf> I think the coolest thing again the water effect in Compiz Fusion is when I turn off the wiper, it leaves a line where it was :P
[09:51] <DarkW0lf> then gets rained onagain
[09:51] <NeT_DeMoN> i need to get my own internet instead of stealing my neighbors
[09:51] <DarkW0lf> holy crap that's cool!
[09:52] <Jordan_U_> NeT_DeMoN, It lets you customize certain pages with javascript, like adding new buttons / themes to gmail
[09:52] <DarkW0lf> I made it rain then  rotated the cube with the mouse, the rain stays on the cube!
[09:52] <NeT_DeMoN> jordan_U_:ok, like maybe font colors to userplane chat rooms??
[09:52] <bazhang> please join #ubuntu-ohhtheshiny
[09:53] <DarkW0lf> and when I rotate it, the wiper blade can be seen on the other sides of the box in transperent mode going in the other direction... coolness!
[09:53] <NeT_DeMoN> i dont see the wiper blade
[09:53] <NeT_DeMoN> is there another thing i need to enable for that?
[09:53] <DarkW0lf> hit Shift F8 and you can see the effect of the blade
[09:53] <Jordan_U_> NeT_DeMoN, It's not visable by default
[09:53] <revilodraw> why is my faster laptop slower when browsing the internet than my sister's laptop? she uses xp... i have ipv6 disabled,
[09:53] <NeT_DeMoN> ok
[09:53] <DarkW0lf> Jordan_U: is there a way to make the blade visible?
[09:53] <Jordan_U_> revilodraw, Have you tried a saved page yet?
[09:54] <NeT_DeMoN> how can you make it visable?
[09:54] <Zenerek> any of you guys try to run the linux version of mugen? I can't seem to get it to detect game pads, one is an xbox 360 pad that i had to compile a driver for,the other is a psx2 pad with a radioshack usb adapter
[09:54] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: umm no.. so save a page and see if it loads quickly?
[09:54] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Yes
[09:55] <NeT_DeMoN> jordan_U: how do you make the wiper visable??
[09:55] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: ok when i do that its fast
[09:55] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, Don't know, I assume you have checked through ccsm already?
[09:56] <NeT_DeMoN> what does the cube gears do?
[09:56] <NeT_DeMoN> i have it enabled
[09:56] <NeT_DeMoN> dont see any gears
[09:56] <Wing> you need cube transparency on
[09:57] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, As a test ( this has worked for myself and 3 others so far, no idea why it works / why there is a problem in the first page ) try using openDNS ( http://opendns.org )
[09:57] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, * first place
[09:57] <DarkW0lf> there's no way to make the blade visible I think
[09:57] <DarkW0lf> you just see the wiper effect, not the blade
[09:58] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: ok is it self-explanatory
[09:58] <NeT_DeMoN> wing: wheres that at, i dont see it
[09:58] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, No, but there are instructions on that sire
[09:58] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, * site :)
[09:58] <DarkW0lf> but cause I saw the wipers through the transparent cube they were going in opposite directions
[09:58] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: ok thanks
[09:59] <DarkW0lf> revilodraw: fixed your problem?
[09:59] <NeT_DeMoN> goodness gracious great balls of fire!!!!!
[09:59] <NeT_DeMoN> :P
[09:59] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: Linux Nub :P
[09:59] <Zenerek> ok next question, anyone here try installing gutsy or feisty on a power pc mac? can't get it to work
[09:59] <revilodraw> DarkW0lf: not yet
[09:59] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[09:59] <hobojohn3> any ideas on how to get a wd my book to be recognized as a drive?
[09:59] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: sad thing is i am
[09:59] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Please tell me if that works, it's one of my "fixes that make no sense for bugs that by all logic can't exist" :)
[10:00] <NeT_DeMoN> just got it last month
[10:00] <NeT_DeMoN> IRCs are new to me too
[10:00] <NeT_DeMoN> im pleased though
[10:00] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, The other has to do with an imac that I inherited from a company throwing it out, it had a label on it "enigmac" :)
[10:00] <DarkW0lf> I've been IRC'n since ought-one... :P
[10:01] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[10:02] <NeT_DeMoN> how do i make the desktop transparent so i can see the gears?
[10:02] <Zenerek> I started using irc only after i started using ubuntu...though mostly i learn to fixmy own probs
[10:02] <cherva> if I have an output "/home/cherva/Desktop/file.cpp" can I grep the filename only ?
[10:02] <NeT_DeMoN> holy crap, i dont like the opacify
[10:03] <NeT_DeMoN> im a multi-tasker :P
[10:03] <Jordan_U> cherva, Yes, but you would use 'sed' rather than grep
[10:03] <|_ocke> i've been on irc since 1997
[10:03] <Wing> I have a really nice compiz setup with all kinds of fancy effects and crap - across my 8 displays.
[10:03] <|_ocke> actually, since 95 or 96 i believe
[10:03] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN_Noob: click on Desktop cube and go to the Transparent Cube tab
[10:03] <DarkW0lf> :P
[10:03] <Wing> The problem, though, is I never get to see it because I always have it buried in windows
[10:03] <|_ocke> 96 at the altest because zophars domain wasnt online yet and that went online nov 96
[10:04] <NeT_DeMoN> oh hell
[10:04] <NeT_DeMoN> didnt see it there
[10:04] <DarkW0lf> in the Compiz Config Settings
[10:04] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[10:04] <NeT_DeMoN> thanks darkw0lf
[10:04] <hobojohn3> any ideas on how to get a wd my book to be recognized as a drive?
[10:04]  * DarkW0lf shoves a Dunce Cap on NeT_DeMoN
[10:04] <andruk> anybody know how i can kill my gui so i can install the proprietary nvidia driver (yes, i know its not supported and i should be using restricted-drivers-manager, the restricted-drivers-manager didnt work)
[10:04] <hobojohn3> it worked once for me now its not recognizing it
[10:04] <Jordan_U> hobojohn3, wd?
[10:04] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[10:04] <Zenerek> i thought about irc before or something like it, at the time i was still using windiws and i read there weresecurity concerns so....
[10:04] <hobojohn3> western digital
[10:05] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: need more sleep or something? :P
[10:05] <hobojohn3> what is the hardware channel?
[10:05] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: naw, im good
[10:05] <NeT_DeMoN> :P
[10:05] <Jordan_U> andruk, ctrl+alt+F1 then "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop" same command but with 'start' when you are done
[10:06] <NeT_DeMoN> thanks though
[10:06] <NeT_DeMoN> i can see my gears :D
[10:06] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[10:06] <DarkW0lf> I remember trying to init 3 and bloody GDM started all the damn time
[10:07] <andruk> Jordan_U: thanks
[10:07] <NeT_DeMoN> does the fire ever go out??
[10:07] <Jordan_U> andruk, np
[10:07] <DarkW0lf> I love the fact that in Linux pretty much any hardware can somehow work
[10:08] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, You can put it out with a shortcut
[10:08] <NeT_DeMoN> i know
[10:08] <DarkW0lf> in Windows you have to search for drivers that may or may-not work
[10:08] <DarkW0lf> "Windows cannot find the drivers neccecary to run this device" "What? But...
[10:08] <NeT_DeMoN> i just want to know if it will stay on all night so when my flatmate wakes up he sees it and freaked out :P
[10:09] <NeT_DeMoN> freakes^^
[10:09] <NeT_DeMoN> freaks^^
[10:09] <DarkW0lf> I think it does sort of go out
[10:09] <cherva> DarkW0lf: pls give me an example
[10:09] <NeT_DeMoN> wow i need to learn my grammar again :P
[10:09] <paradoxfox93> one way or another...linux just worx!
[10:10] <DarkW0lf> here's a cooler one NeT_DeMoN: go to the Extras bit and find Annote
[10:10] <paradoxfox93> no more blue screen of death!
[10:10] <paradoxfox93> :P
[10:10] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, Does he know much about linux? There are some great pranks you can play on those that don't :)
[10:10] <paradoxfox93> soz I'm on a trip as I'm a noob :P
[10:10] <DarkW0lf> once you've enabled it hold alt>super> Left mouse button
[10:10] <DarkW0lf> and write a message for your flatmate on the screen :P
[10:11] <NeT_DeMoN> jordan_U: no he doesnt ;)
[10:11] <NeT_DeMoN> i want to learn
[10:11] <DarkW0lf> clear the screen with alt>super+K
[10:11] <bazhang> something scary
[10:11] <bazhang> like redrum
[10:11] <paradoxfox93> none of those do anything
[10:11] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[10:11] <DarkW0lf> with a backwards r
[10:11] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, Like sshing in and having the computer talk to your victim, or for something more automated but harder to setup you can have it do something when it detects his ( or any ) bluetooth phone :)
[10:11] <hobojohn3> what is button 1?
[10:11] <paradoxfox93> but then i havent gotten super to work thor sysrq
[10:11] <paradoxfox93> or anything but printscreeen
[10:11] <Stwange> I want some nice christmassy snow on my desktop (gnome), but I don't want to lose the background. Can anyone help me make my house more festive? :)
[10:12] <hobojohn3> windows key=super
[10:12] <NeT_DeMoN> like my blue tooth phone?
[10:12] <paradoxfox93> ik
[10:12] <mosno> Stwange: there used to be some crappy snow package in the Debian repo
[10:12] <Jay-Oh-En> how do you install frets on fire?
[10:12] <mosno> Stwange: xsnow or something
[10:12] <NeT_DeMoN> like how do you do the bluetooth thing
[10:12] <bazhang> Stwange: gnome-look.org has some nice stuff
[10:12] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, If your bluetooth phone fits the description of "any bluetooth phone", then yes :)
[10:12] <Stwange> mosno, "used to be" and "crappy" aren't my favourite words :)
[10:13] <NeT_DeMoN> that seems interestig
[10:13] <NeT_DeMoN> lol, ok
[10:13] <mmkay> would an intel core 2 duo be considered a 64 bit processor? (I don't know which iso to get)
[10:13] <NeT_DeMoN> im stupid right now, not enough fags tonight
[10:13] <NeT_DeMoN> :P
[10:13] <Zenerek> ok, question 3, hopefully some help on this one, when i play a dvd playback is choppy....how might i fix or tune this, could be because my pc is using the cache too much?
[10:13] <poeticrpm> mmkay.. yes
[10:13] <Jordan_U> mmkay, Yes, but you should probably stick with 32 bit
[10:13] <Gary> mmkay, yes, but a i386 iso will also work fine
[10:13] <paradoxfox93> my movie player is jacked up too
[10:13] <mmkay> why is that?
[10:13] <poeticrpm> im running 64bit buntu on a core2duo
[10:14] <DarkW0lf> Zenerek: what program are you running?
[10:14] <poeticrpm> no.. thats a thing of the past
[10:14] <poeticrpm> 64bit runs awesome now
[10:14] <bazhang> Zenerek: which video card?
[10:14] <freepenguin> hello everybody
[10:14] <NeT_DeMoN> is there a thing like limewire for linux??
[10:14] <Stwange> mosno, xsnow is great :)
[10:14] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: BitTorrent
[10:14] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, there is gtk-gnutella, and... limewire :)
[10:14] <DarkW0lf> don't freaking use LimeWire
[10:14] <NeT_DeMoN> darkw0lf: thanks
[10:14] <paradoxfox93> sit plays fine but when I try to drag to a specific spot of forward (with commands or the right key) or any type of time select funtion it jacks around
[10:14] <paradoxfox93> mostly restarting
[10:14] <hobojohn3> any ideas on how to get a western digital my book to be recognized as a drive?
[10:14] <NeT_DeMoN> limewire is linux compatible??
[10:14] <NeT_DeMoN> :|
[10:15] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, But limewire is horrible, gtk-gnutella uses the same network
[10:15] <DarkW0lf> hobojohn3: what do you mean?
[10:15] <poeticrpm> NeT_DeMoN: Frostwire
[10:15] <paradoxfox93> Frostwire is freeware and is better than limewire
[10:15] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, It's java based, I think it may even be open source

[10:16] <poeticrpm> mmkay: 64bit is just as easy and as stable as 32bit- youre only tough part will be java in firefox.
[10:16] <DarkW0lf> if it's Ubuntu it should automount it...
[10:16] <paradoxfox93> javaddict
[10:16] <hobojohn3> it is ubuntu

[10:17] <hobojohn3> nope
[10:17] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, Yes, it's there
[10:17] <DarkW0lf> Places > Computer

[10:19] <DarkW0lf> NeT_DeMoN: mine seems to run ok..
[10:20] <RoDoX> #ubuntu-br
[10:20] <hobojohn3> darkwolf it has an error
[10:20] <NeT_DeMoN> i have bittorrent already but where is it located?
[10:20] <Zero_> HMMM
[10:20] <dn4> Is there a device which can copy and paste pdf txt?
[10:21] <hobojohn3> error detils mount: /dev/sdb1: can't read superblock
[10:21] <wols_> aa device?
[10:21] <paradoxfox93> a program
[10:21] <paradoxfox93> i wondered that myself
[10:21] <paradoxfox93> c/p out of a pdf
[10:21] <wols_> dn4: there are things like pdf2ascii or pfd2html
[10:21] <Herbo> ??
[10:21] <wols_> and any pdf viewer can copy+paste
[10:22] <dn4> neat
[10:22] <NeT_DeMoN> where is bit torrent located because i just figured out i had it and i dont see it on the applications tab???
[10:23] <wols_> NeT_DeMoN: which torrent package did you install
[10:23] <Herbo> Hello folks, how do I add a permenant nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf ? however, I'm on desparte to add 'em but unforunately I'm using DHCP client that updates /etc/resolv.conf everytime your restart ur networking services.
[10:23] <NeT_DeMoN> it was in add/remove programs
[10:23] <wols_> Herbo: man interfaces, or chattr +i the resolv.conf file, or configure your dhcp client correctly
[10:24] <NeT_DeMoN> what i was doing was downloading everything one day :P
[10:24] <wols_> NeT_DeMoN: there is a NAME for it. what is it?
[10:24] <Zenerek> NeT_DeMoN open terminal and type whereis PROGRAM_NAME
[10:24] <NeT_DeMoN> bit torrent i think
[10:24] <dn4> wols_, what is the package name?
[10:24] <NeT_DeMoN> im downloading more stuff right now so i really cant check
[10:24] <wols_> Zenerek: he is trying to find the PROGRAM_NAME
[10:24] <hobojohn3> how do i get a drive to mount
[10:25] <wols_> dn4: why would I know or care. aren't you able to search?
[10:25] <wols_> hobojohn3: with the program "mount"
[10:25] <paradoxfox93> SO IT CAN! Adobe used to not let me do that..forgive..I'm still a little new to the wonderful world of linux :P
[10:25] <NeT_DeMoN> nothing there
[10:25] <hobojohn3> wols_ it gives me an error
[10:25] <ghatak> Hi, I have an external serial modem that i use to connect with windows. Now i have switched to gusty, the same modem does not work properly under gusty. The modem does not require any specific drivers and is connected to serial port of my pc. Are there any specific settings that I can change or tweak to make it work ?
[10:25] <wols_> hobojohn3: do you think I'm psychic?
[10:25] <hobojohn3> error detils mount: /dev/sdb1: can't read superblock
[10:25] <hobojohn3> sry
[10:26] <wols_> ghatak: not until you qualify your "does not work"
[10:26] <wols_> hobojohn3: what type of filesystem is it and what is your exact mount commandline?
[10:27] <NeT_DeMoN> it is bit torrent right??
[10:27] <wols_> NeT_DeMoN: you said you installed a bittorrent client. that client's package has a name. what name?
[10:27] <NeT_DeMoN> the file downloading program?
[10:27] <hobojohn3> idk but it has worked on this comp before and i right click it and click mount
[10:27] <wols_> hobojohn3: pastbein your fstab
[10:27] <hobojohn3> huh?
[10:27] <NeT_DeMoN> im not sure, how would i check??
[10:27] <wols_> !paste | hobojohn3
[10:27] <ubotu> hobojohn3: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:28] <wols_> NeT_DeMoN: by reasind what synaptic tells you
[10:28] <hobojohn3> fstab?
[10:28] <Zenerek> hobojohn3 the keyring daemon(i think) is supposed to handle your devices so that when you put em in they get auto mounted to the media folder in root, your gonna have to make a folder somewhere and mount it mnaually
[10:29] <NeT_DeMoN> im downloading stuff right now so i cant check
[10:29] <hobojohn3> zenerek how do i do that?
[10:29] <ghatak> wols_: well it works fine under windows, and it does connect sometimes under gusty too. but then it behave strangely (only under gusty). i am just wondering if here are any modem init strings that I can use or tune as I can do in windows, dont know how to do that in Ubuntu:(
[10:29] <NeT_DeMoN> it was under the add/remove programs tab under applications though
[10:29] <wols_> Zenerek: huh? keyring? what have passwords and certs to do with mounting?
[10:29] <NeT_DeMoN> the only one that i saw
[10:29] <wols_> ghatak: strangely HOW?
[10:29] <NeT_DeMoN> my screen just blacked out
[10:29] <NeT_DeMoN> later guys
[10:29] <wols_> ghatak: you can use the same strings as on windows since it's the same device...
[10:30] <NeT_DeMoN> thanks for the help
[10:30] <DarkW0lf> ok time to test my changes to the DHCP settings...
[10:30] <DarkW0lf> wish me luck
[10:30] <Zenerek> wols_ that is why i said i think
[10:30] <hobojohn3> how do i mount a drive manually
[10:30] <wols_> Zenerek: most like the thing it uses is gnome volume manager
[10:30] <dave_> help i cant run firefox-i get a alert that says could not initialize the browser's security component the most likely cause is problems with files in your browsers profile directory , please check that this directory has no read/write restictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. PLEASE ANYONE PLEASE HELP!!!!
[10:30] <ghatak> wols_: the modem intiates, and then does not detect tone and hangs up, this only happens in gusty, never in windows.
[10:31] <wols_> hobojohn3: as I told you: with mount. I am still watiing for the contents of your fstab file
[10:31] <hobojohn3> what is fstab?
[10:31] <hobojohn3> and how do i do it
[10:31] <wols_> ghatak: there are settings for hayes modems not to wait for the dialtone
[10:31] <wols_> hobojohn3: /etc/fstab
[10:31] <hobojohn3> oh
[10:32] <Zenerek>  hobojohn3: what i do know is that they are supposed to be mounted to media, fstab is a file in /etc that tells ubuntu what devies to mount and where
[10:32] <wols_> ghatak: the same AT commands as in windows will work in gutsy
[10:32] <dave_> help i cant run firefox-i get a alert that says could not initialize the browser's security component the most likely cause is problems with files in your browsers profile directory , please check that this directory has no read/write restictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. PLEASE ANYONE PLEASE HELP!!!!
[10:32] <hobojohn3> here you go http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48522/
[10:32] <ghatak> wols_: right, where do i change those? i can't see any thing in network connection settings for that
[10:32] <twiztr> Hey everyone... Thanks for the help, it worked. Now my other problem...
[10:32] <twiztr> How do I set my WinXP drive to mount automatically when I log on, so I don't have to click on the icon, and type in my password before I run any app that is on it?
[10:33] <wols_> twiztr: /etc/fstab usually
[10:33] <Zenerek>  hobojohn3: open a terminal and type man mount  you will get a man file on how to use the mount command
[10:33] <dave_> WHERE DO I CHECK MY DIRECTORY FOR READ/WRITE RESTRICTIONS AND WHAT SHOULD I DO?
[10:33] <wols_> ghatak: check if /etc/ppp/ has anything
[10:33] <ivan> now that you've asked in all caps i must help you
[10:33]  * wols_ ignores dave_ for shouting
[10:33] <dave_> sorry
[10:33] <dave_> thank you ivan
[10:33] <wols_> too late
[10:34] <wols_> ivan: please don'
[10:34] <wols_> t
[10:34] <twiztr> I thought fstab was only to like, tell the computer where to mount it to, and what file system it has, when you mount it. Does it actually mount it when you log on too?
[10:34] <ivan> #humor-impaired
[10:34] <utente> hi what is the option i shlould put instead of "?" in "cat 1.avi|mplayer -?"
[10:34] <ghatak> wols_: right, i will have a look, i will have to reboot because i am in windows, however my understanding is that ppp would be active after the modem has negotiated (layer1) connection with the other side
[10:34] <wols_> twiztr: it mounts when you start
[10:35] <wols_> ghatak: for modems, ppp dials too
[10:35] <ghatak> wols_: fair enough, i will dig for it
[10:35] <wols_> ghatak: as a workaround, install the driver from fs-driver.org and access the directory from windows
[10:35] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: hi, i am back my router was playing up... was that site, www.opendns.org?
[10:35] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Yes
[10:36] <Herbo> wols_, chattr +i doesn't work wtih dhclient eth0
[10:37] <darkblue_B> hello - I just installed GraphViz with the package mgr, but where is it?
[10:37] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: for a bit of trivia, that page took 27seconds to load.. i am on 1.5mbps internet (australia)
[10:37] <dave_> i was in the middle of restarting firefox with a bunch of add ons that i needed because i just started using ubuntu and firefox had no extentions then i went to reset and it said the alert
[10:37] <ghatak> wols_: yea, thanks for that, however i found that if you access ext3 with that, then there are occaianal super block errors on fsck
[10:37] <hobojohn3> that man page didnt help much wols_
[10:37] <hobojohn3> im too noob
[10:37] <darkblue_B> I looked in usr/bin
[10:37] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Sounds like the problem I have
[10:38] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, ( which using openDNS fixes )
[10:38] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: ok.. when i download a file i get really good speeds.. eg 160kbps
[10:38] <earlmred> heh sweet
[10:38] <kyle_> anyone know of a way to configure my network and have it work through cases where eth0 and eth1 get swapped?
[10:38] <hobojohn3> !fsck
[10:38] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[10:38] <earlmred> got gmailfs setup with encfs
[10:38] <darkblue_B> search for graphviz returns nothing... (desktop search).
[10:38] <darkblue_B> !graphviz
[10:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about graphviz - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:39] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Yeh, it's just a domain name resolution problem, if you go to sites by ip they should load immediately
[10:39] <dave_> any advice anyone
[10:39] <earlmred> now i just need to setup backups to gmail and i'm good to go heh
[10:39] <kyle_> earlmred: "microsoft just opensourced the bsd monopoly" comes to mind ;)
[10:39] <earlmred> kyle_, ?
[10:39] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: ok what is google's ip?
[10:40] <dave_> darkwolf can you help me
[10:40] <wols_> hobojohn3: I asked you several things, answer them
[10:40] <schneutzi> hallo ihr lieben
[10:40] <schneutzi> ich grüße alle die da sind

[10:41] <kyle_> earlmred: http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2000/01/31
[10:41] <void^> darkblue_B: dpkg -L graphviz, and note how the package description mentions it's a collection of command line tools.
[10:41] <earlmred> kyle_, of course, the question is, how to mount encfs on a free install, not sure i know how to do that
[10:41] <netdemon> are there quick keys for stand-by??
[10:41] <earlmred> kyle_, hehe, sorry, can't remember ALL the penny arcades :)
[10:41] <hobojohn3> wols_ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48522/ i dont know the filesystem type and to mount i right clicked it and clicked mount but that didnt do anything other than give me that error
[10:41] <kyle_> wols_: it runs dhcpd
[10:41] <dave_> ivan?
[10:42] <wols_> hobojohn3: sudo fdisk -l
[10:42] <schneutzi> thangs a lot i running ubuntu for the first time on my meschine
[10:42] <darkw0lf> hmmm I think I might have a conflicting dhcp or something perhaps
[10:42] <kyle_> earlmred: I remember lots of oddities :)
[10:42] <jussi01> Is anyone familiar with scribus? how do I make borders around an item?
[10:42] <netdemon> holy crap, im still in here
[10:42] <netdemon> lol
[10:42] <wols_> kyle_: tell your dhcpd to assign by MAC address
[10:42] <kyle_> wait wait wait
[10:43] <kyle_> I can hand out a dhcp address to myself?
[10:43] <wols_> you just said you run a dhcpd so you do hand out IPs, no?
[10:43] <hobojohn3> wols: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48523/
[10:43] <Pat__> Hello , i tired finding info on my own but could not! Is there an (easy) way to run ubuntu on a machine without a graphics card? I can put in a card during the installation and remove it later, but I did not find a howto about what should be done ...
[10:43] <darkblue_B> void^: aha  silly me, I thought there would be a demo app of some kind. thank you though
[10:43] <Pat__> Can anyone help ?
[10:43] <kyle_> i said IT runs dhcp actually
[10:43] <kyle_> *dhcpd
[10:43] <wols_> hobojohn3: there is no sdb on the system....
[10:44] <hobojohn3> wols_ huh?
[10:44] <wols_> Pat__: yes. just do it. will work find. Xserver is kinda problematic but doable
[10:44] <NeT_DeMoN_> are there quick keys for stand-by mode?
[10:44] <wols_> hobojohn3: there is no sdb1 partition as the fdisk output clearly shows
[10:44] <wols_> s/find/fine
[10:45] <hobojohn3> wols_ and that means?
[10:45] <Pat__> wols_ so I install ubuntu server make sure ssh is started and runnign then remove the graphics card and reboot ?
[10:45] <wols_> that means there is no sdb on your system and hance no sdb1 to mount
[10:45] <wols_> Pat__: pretty much, yes

[10:46] <hobojohn3> zenerek wd mybook 250 or 350 gig external usb
[10:47] <hobojohn3> i cant remember how big
[10:48] <wols_> hobojohn3: disconnect it
[10:48] <wols_> the reconnect and check your dmesg output
[10:48] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: it seems to have worked
[10:48] <hobojohn3> dmesg?
[10:48] <Zenerek> hobojohn3 strange, if the externel should be a sd device ,wols_ did you have him rub dmesg and grep for hd or sd?
[10:49] <paradoxfox93> why doesnt my sysreq btton work?
[10:49] <paradoxfox93> I'm on a laptop and I have to hit super+del for sysreq
[10:50] <paradoxfox93> I get printscreen functino
[10:50] <Zenerek>  hobojohn3 hey does it have a power button? did you power it on?
[10:50] <hobojohn3> yes i did
[10:50] <hobojohn3> and its all plugged in
[10:50] <paradoxfox93> which is what i get when I press super+ins which is what it is suppose to do
[10:50] <hobojohn3> i think i spoke with someone a while back aobut them spinning down when they used them in linux
[10:50] <hobojohn3> and that seems to be what mine does
[10:51] <wols_> Zenerek: it's what I just did
[10:51] <hobojohn3> it turns on and then it goes into what the standby mode looked like when i plugged itinto windows and it stops making sound
[10:53] <Zenerek>  hobojohn3 well do what wols_: said about unpluging it then run dmesg | grep sd   in a terminal, ass if it shows
[10:53] <hobojohn3> i unplugged it then replugged it then do what now
[10:53] <hobojohn3> sry im very nood
[10:53] <hobojohn3> noob
[10:53] <hobojohn3> i cant even spell it properly

[10:56] <Hattori> if i use "sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx //<IP_ADDRESS>/Temp /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp" it works, i can access the windows shared dir from  /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp dir.. how to set it auto mount on boot? i put in fstab file but seems i'm doing something wrong, since dirs are empty.
[10:56] <jussi01> !fstab
[10:56] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[10:57] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: can i ru bittorrent by typing a command in the terminal?
[10:57] <Zenerek> hold on reading
[10:57] <wols_> NeT_DeMoN: yes
[10:57] <NeT_DeMoN> wols_whats the command?
[10:58] <Hattori> in fstab i wrote: "//<IP_ADDRESS>/Temp /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp smbfs username=xxx,password=yyy 0 0". what's wrong?
[10:59] <NeT_DeMoN> im basically a linux noob
[10:59] <NeT_DeMoN> just got it last month
[10:59] <wols_> Hattori: "mount /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp"
[10:59] <VuurDraak> those are the best Net_demon
[11:00] <NeT_DeMoN> whats the best?
[11:00] <Hattori> wols_: i mean in fstab file..
[11:00] <wols_> Hattori: you missed the auto and the other stuff that makes up "defaults"

[11:00] <VuurDraak> I love them
[11:00] <Hattori> wols_: so the line should be?

[11:00] <VuurDraak> :P
[11:00] <wols_> VuurDraak: cause they're so crispy when flamed and go great with ketchup?
[11:00] <NeT_DeMoN> IM NOT ALONE!!!!! YAY
[11:00] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[11:00] <VuurDraak> :P
[11:01] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, rtorrent is a great CLI bittorrent client BTW
[11:01] <NeT_DeMoN> i just learned the flames and rain stuff
[11:01] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, did you get the help you needed ion your question?
[11:01] <NeT_DeMoN> thanks jordan_U
[11:01] <NeT_DeMoN> which question kbrooks
[11:02] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, terminal question
[11:02] <NeT_DeMoN> nope
[11:02] <hobojohn3> zenerek r u still here?
[11:02] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, you asked if you could start a program in terminal... yes you can
[11:02] <NeT_DeMoN> is bazhang still alive?
[11:02] <alka> internet cam not working
[11:03] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: opendns seems to have fixed the proble,
[11:03] <NeT_DeMoN> kbrooks: whats the command i would use?
[11:03] <alka> ok
[11:03] <wols_> NeT_DeMoN: we really hope so
[11:03] <Hattori> wols_: auto and noauto With the auto option, the device will be mounted automatically (at bootup, just like I told you a bit earlier, or when you issue the mount -a command). auto is the default option
[11:03] <ergun> find
[11:03] <NeT_DeMoN> wols_: lol
[11:03] <Hattori> wols_: so seems auto is not necessary
[11:03] <alka> hi demon
[11:03] <NeT_DeMoN> hello
[11:03] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, well you can use the terminal apps > accessories > terminal
[11:03] <wols_> Hattori: if you say so, then I can't argue
[11:03] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, You are the 4th in a prestigious group, you should be honored ;)
[11:04] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Fifth rather
[11:04] <NeT_DeMoN> huh
[11:04] <Hattori> not me
[11:04] <Hattori> !fstab
[11:04] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[11:04] <Hattori> it syas so
[11:04] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: hmm but i dont really like the idea of my internet going through an open server
[11:04] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, and then you type the name of a command, something like
[11:04] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, ls
[11:04] <Zenerek> hobojohn3 looks like there some sector errors on sdb ,wols_: have you seen his pastebin?
[11:04] <NeT_DeMoN> im confused
[11:04] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, It doesn't, a DNS server just resolves "whatever.com" to an IP
[11:05] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, i'm helping you
[11:05] <NeT_DeMoN> i know
[11:05] <dmgubuntu> Hi, I ran the Gutsy livecd and I got a wireless connection. I installed and there is no sign of wireless on the machine. Is that what happens when wireless doesn't work?
[11:05] <NeT_DeMoN> im just a noob and barely know anything about it
[11:05] <ninjagambit> i just had a brain storm but not sure if it will work
[11:05] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, about the terminal, you mean?
[11:05] <NeT_DeMoN> about anything
[11:05] <sinner51> Hi there everyone
[11:05] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: hmm ok..well i guess i can always change it back later... thanks heaps for your help
[11:05] <VuurDraak> o/
[11:05] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, look at the top of your screen
[11:05] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, np
[11:06] <Hattori> in fstab i wrote: "//<IP_ADDRESS>/Temp /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp smbfs username=xxx,password=yyy 0 0", and on boot /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp is empty. if i write sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx //<IP_ADDRESS>/Temp /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp" it works, i can access the windows shared dir from  /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp dir. what's wrong with fstab file?
[11:06] <ninjagambit> i have had problems with flash sence changing to kubuntu 64
[11:06] <sinner51> I have a strange problem on my Dell Inspiron. My dvd drive keep ejecting automatically every so often. Any ideas?
[11:06] <sinner51> I am running 7.10
[11:06] <ninjagambit> cant get it to work
[11:06] <NeT_DeMoN> i have my terminal up
[11:06] <Jordan_U> ninjagambit, 7.10 ?
[11:06] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, there you see a clock on the far right and a ubuntu logo, along with the words "applications", "places" and "system"
[11:06] <NeT_DeMoN> like i just cant find bittorrent
[11:06] <ninjagambit> gutsy
[11:06] <revilodraw> sinner51; sounds hardwareish... mine doesnt do that
[11:06] <NeT_DeMoN> i put it at the bottom :P
[11:07] <NeT_DeMoN> but yeah i see
[11:07] <wols_> ninjagambit: considering there is no flash for 64bit systems. quite a feat
[11:07] <ninjagambit> what if i used wine and ran a windows fire fox
[11:07] <ninjagambit> could i view flash sites
[11:07] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, fine, whatever. anyway, bittorrent is somewhere in the applications menu
[11:07] <wols_> you can. but usually one runs a 32bit firefox or something like nspluginwrapper
[11:07] <ninjagambit> i tried all the emulator stuff that never worked
[11:07] <laetitia> salut
[11:07] <BB88> NeT_DeMoN: It is 'gnome-btdownload'
[11:07] <NeT_DeMoN> its says its supposed to be under internet
[11:08] <ninjagambit> and nsplugingwrapper
[11:08] <wols_> WINE is another emulator even if they deny it
[11:08] <ona____> you must install plugin.....
[11:08] <NeT_DeMoN> yeah, from the add/remove programs thing
[11:08] <BB88> NeT_DeMoN: To run BitTorrent from Terminal, type 'gnome-btdownload'
[11:08] <NeT_DeMoN> ok
[11:08] <NeT_DeMoN> thanks
[11:08] <dave81> can some one help me get my tv to work as a second monitor?
[11:08] <kbrooks> BB88, thats a very watered down version n
[11:09] <kbrooks> BB88, of bittorrent
[11:09] <ninjagambit> wine is the only thing i havnt tried
[11:09] <laetitia> jai un tit probleme je sais pas comment on mes kopete en français
[11:09] <Spoozilla> Hello all
[11:09] <BB88> kbrooks: I did not say it was any better or worse than what it is.
[11:09] <NeT_DeMoN> it brought up my home folder :|
[11:09] <ninjagambit> but im thinking maby it will work
[11:09] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, sorry...
[11:09] <BB88> NeT_DeMoN: Yes, browse to the torrent you want to download, if you have saved the .torrent file to disk.
[11:09] <ona____> Spoozzilla : hello
[11:09] <NeT_DeMoN> i just want to be able to download music and stuff
[11:09] <BB88> NeT_DeMoN: Try out FrostWire.
[11:10] <NeT_DeMoN> ok
[11:10] <ninjagambit> download music from limewire
[11:10] <NeT_DeMoN> do i have to go to a site?
[11:10] <kbrooks> NeT_DeMoN, no
[11:10] <NeT_DeMoN> limewire i heard was gay
[11:10] <ninjagambit> download movies and stuff from mininova
[11:10] <BB88> NeT_DeMoN: http://www.frostwire.com/
[11:10] <dmgubuntu> Does anyone know why wireless would work with a livecd and not work once gutsy is installed?
[11:10] <ninjagambit> using bittorrent
[11:10] <kbrooks> !info frostwire
[11:10] <ubotu> Package frostwire does not exist in gutsy
[11:10] <NeT_DeMoN> thanks
[11:10] <BB88> dmgubuntu: What wireless do you have?
[11:11] <dave81> can some one help me get my tv to work as a second monitor?
[11:11] <ninjagambit> they have a napster package
[11:11] <dmgubuntu> BB88: I don't know. I am trying to install on my friends machine. How do I find out?
[11:11] <ninjagambit> but i havnt tried it
[11:11] <sinner51> revilodraw: oh man. its soo annoyinng you know. anyway, thanks.
[11:11] <NeT_DeMoN> is there a way to turn .exe files to linux files?
[11:11] <Spoozilla> I'm working on a Sun T2000 with Ubuntu 7.10 and I can't get it to autoboot. SILO will sit at the boot: boot: prompt until I attach a serial console and press return. Anyone have any suggestions?
[11:12] <BB88> dmgubuntu: I do it a simple way. Go up to the network icon and right click it, and then go to 'Connection Information'. Should be located under driver.
[11:12] <mosno> Spoozilla: never used SILO/Sun T2000, but it sounds like the bootloader doesn't have a timeout and/or default boot image
[11:12] <dmgubuntu> BB88: THat option is greyed out for me.
[11:13] <ninjagambit> to much tech jargon my brain is about to self destruct
[11:13] <ninjagambit> 5
[11:13] <ninjagambit> 4
[11:13] <ninjagambit> 3
[11:13] <wols_> ninjagambit: we got it. now stop
[11:13] <ninjagambit> i did
[11:13] <NeT_DeMoN> i hate my slow connection
[11:14] <Zenerek> hobojohn3 , i was looking online...might be a bug...have you tried getting a newer kernel?
[11:14] <NeT_DeMoN> i need to quit stealing my neighbors connection and get my own internet service :P
[11:14] <flo|va-nu-pied> plop les gens
[11:14] <Spoozilla> mosno: I have a default image set and I've tried setting the timeout to various settings. Setting it to 0 works intermitantly (which is annoying) and any other value just waits for the cosole to be attached.
[11:15] <flo|va-nu-pied> raah c'que c'est bon d'passer les firewall
[11:15] <flo|va-nu-pied> :)
[11:15] <BB88> dmgubuntu: lspci -v
[11:15] <flo|va-nu-pied> enfin pouvoir revenir sur IRC :)
[11:15] <manuel_> hello, I need some help with NetworkManager, resolvconf and dnsmasq. I want resolvconf to set my nameserver always to <IP_ADDRESS>, wich seems to work, and dnsmasq to forward to <IP_ADDRESS> for all connections (except some..), so my resolvconf now has "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>", but I can't even ping any adress - neither localnet nor internet. dnsmasq is running and tells in the logfile the right dns-forwards... any ideas anyone?
[11:15] <mosno> Spoozilla: intermittent? no idea mate
[11:15] <dave81> can some one help me get my tv to work as a second monitor? please
[11:15] <wols_> Zenerek: I have seen it. and it looks like it just can't get it running again after it spins down
[11:15] <NeT_DeMoN> rain drops keep falling on my head :D
[11:15] <dmgubuntu> BB88: Atheros AR2413...?
[11:15] <wols_> hobojohn3: what I didn't see is what I asked for however. so suit yourself
[11:15] <mosno> NeT_DeMoN: lol
[11:15] <Jordan_U> Spoozilla, Can you pastebin your silo.conf ?
[11:15] <NeT_DeMoN> i love the rain feature
[11:15] <BB88> dmgubuntu: Yes, that is the one.
[11:15] <mosno> NeT_DeMoN: but that doesn't mean my OS will soon be turnin' red...
[11:16] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[11:16] <mosno> NeT_DeMoN: Red Hat's not for me...
[11:16] <NeT_DeMoN> fire time
[11:16] <BB88> dmgubuntu: Yes, that is the one.
[11:16] <Spoozilla> Jordan_U: Without sounding like an idiot (as much as humanly possible) what is a pastebin?
[11:16] <wols_> !pastebin
[11:16] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:16] <NeT_DeMoN> rain and fire, now wheres the wind :P
[11:16] <Zenerek> wols_: was looking online it may be a bug, maybe he should try newer kernel....if he does not have it that is
[11:16] <dmgubuntu> BB88: what do I do with that info?
[11:17] <BB88> dmgubuntu: Open up the 'Synaptic Package Manager' and install 'acer-acpi' and 'acerwificontroller'.

[11:17] <Kalamansi> hello when i tried to insert my usb's in the port (front or back) there is no "eject"...how to install "eject"?so that my usbs wont crashed
[11:17] <NeT_DeMoN> the bot is pretty smart
[11:18] <NeT_DeMoN> like with the "in case you missed it" thing
[11:18] <Jordan_U> Kalamansi, use umount
[11:18] <ikonia> klfd4: what usb devices ?
[11:18] <klfd4> huh?
[11:18] <Kalamansi> umount : ubuntu 7.10 desktop here... what is umount btw?
[11:18] <ikonia> oops
[11:18] <klfd4> :)
[11:18] <Hattori> in fstab i wrote: "//<IP_ADDRESS>/Temp /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp smbfs username=xxx,password=yyy 0 0", and on boot /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp is empty. if i write sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx //<IP_ADDRESS>/Temp /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp" it works, i can access the windows shared dir from  /home/xxx/Desktop/Shared/Temp dir. what's wrong with fstab file?
[11:18] <ikonia> Kalamansi: what usb device
[11:18] <dave81> can some one help me get my tv to work as a second monitor? please
[11:18] <Kalamansi>  Jordan_U : ubuntu 7.10 desktop here... what is umount btw?
[11:18] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, That was added by me :) "!factoid | <string to put before factoid>" is the syntax
[11:19] <brobostigon> !mount
[11:19] <NeT_DeMoN> oh, cool
[11:19] <BB88> Kalamansi: It unmounts the drive.
[11:19] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[11:19] <Kalamansi> ikonia : its kingston and ipq
[11:19] <ikonia> Kalamansi: ipq ?
[11:19] <ikonia> Kalamansi: solid state disk ?
[11:19] <Spoozilla> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48526/
[11:19] <Kalamansi> yes ikonia
[11:19] <Jordan_U> Kalamansi, It's the command used to unmount partitions, you can also right click on said drive / partition and choose unmount
[11:19] <dmgubuntu> BB88: I did a search for those packages and I didn't find them. Are they in another repo?
[11:19] <Spoozilla> uboto: Got it, thanks.]
[11:19] <ikonia> Kalamansi: when you insert it do you get an icon on your desktop ?
[11:19] <NeT_DeMoN> you know have the time my konversation program dont work
[11:20] <NeT_DeMoN> but yet pidgon always does
[11:20] <Kalamansi> Jordan_U: umount is like remove?or format?
[11:20] <Jordan_U> Spoozilla, What happens when you choose '1' for the timeout?
[11:20] <NeT_DeMoN> i need a linux dude on my messenger list :P
[11:20] <Kalamansi> ikonia : yes..and i dont see "eject" there
[11:20] <NeT_DeMoN> i like the way it pulls up IPs though
[11:20] <Spoozilla> Jordan: I haven't tried 1 implicitly. I'll do it now.
[11:20] <BB88> dmgubuntu: Sorry, I was assuming it was a Acer Aspire 5040?
[11:20] <Jordan_U> Kalamansi, remove, it's basically the same as eject, but eject is not the proper word in this case because you have to pull the drive out yourself :)
[11:20] <NeT_DeMoN> pretty awesome, if only i knew how to use them :P
[11:21] <NeT_DeMoN> now im having mozilla problems
[11:21] <NeT_DeMoN> it wont download anything from mozilla
[11:21] <NeT_DeMoN> it gets so far
[11:21] <NeT_DeMoN> then stops
[11:21] <Kalamansi> Jordan_U: yes when i pull it up and try to insert in some pc it wont read meaning there is no files there
[11:21] <dmgubuntu> BB88: it's an aspire 3500. But the packages aren't showing up... so is that because they are in a non-default repo?
[11:22] <RenUbu> smb wont' display folder contents on gutsy anyone help?
[11:22] <NeT_DeMoN> is there a way for halo for PC to run on linux???
[11:22] <Jordan_U> Kalamansi, I am not sure what you mean, are you saying that you saved files to it but then those files didn't show up on another computer?
[11:23] <brobostigon> NeT_DeMoN: use wine
[11:23] <BB88> dmgubuntu: If they are not displaying now, then I assume so. Do you have the backup or recovery disk at hand?
[11:23] <Jordan_U> !appdb | NeT_DeMoN
[11:23] <Kalamansi> jordan_U yes
[11:23] <ubotu> NeT_DeMoN: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org
[11:23] <NeT_DeMoN> wine?
[11:23] <Daviey> RenUbu: samba was broken, sudo apt-get install --reinstall samba # should fix it
[11:23] <Jordan_U> !wine | NeT_DeMoN
[11:23] <ubotu> NeT_DeMoN: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[11:23] <RenUbu> tried it
[11:23] <NeT_DeMoN> my god, just throw the bot at me :P
[11:23]  * Jordan_U throws ubotu at NeT_DeMoN
[11:23] <NeT_DeMoN> lol
[11:24] <NeT_DeMoN> he scares me
[11:24] <dmgubuntu> BB88: I have only just installed gutsy so if that's what you mean by the backup/recovery disk... the install disk... then yes.

[11:27] <yusuo> ok then ill ask another question
[11:27] <RenUbu> hrm, complete removal of samba does libsmbclient need removal, as that will kill just about evertything?
[11:28] <yusuo> why on hell cant i get my file sharing working through samba
[11:28] <Adriaa1> I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 from a Live CD now, can I play a DVD-movie?
[11:28] <dave81> can some one help me get my tv to work as a second monitor? please
[11:28] <NeT_DeMoN> a dos attack?
[11:28] <NeT_DeMoN> like in MSDOS?
[11:28] <ikonia> yusuo: what sort of problems are you having, and please moderate your language
[11:28] <kyle_> yea like /con/con
[11:28] <kyle_> ;)
[11:28] <Spoozilla> Jordan_U: Ok, its just sat at the "boot: boot:" prompt. I assume a setting of 1 should be .1 of a second delay before autoboot?
[11:28] <ikonia> NeT_DeMoN: Denial of Service
[11:28] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, Denial Of Service
[11:28] <kael_> hi all
[11:28] <NeT_DeMoN> huh
[11:28] <Cubexombi> can someone gimme a little hand with X, it seems any video (avi or render like glxgears) once moved like to leave a ghost image behind, not sure what the root cause is but it is a wee bit annoying, wouldn't mind figureing it out
[11:28] <kyle_> NeT_DeMoN is getting a lot of stereo I see
[11:28] <NeT_DeMoN> i was just wondering
[11:29] <NeT_DeMoN> if thats what she was talking about
[11:29] <Jordan_U> Spoozilla, Yes
[11:29] <manuel_> I need some help with NetworkManager, resolvconf and dnsmasq. I want resolvconf to set my nameserver always to <IP_ADDRESS>, which seems to work, and dnsmasq to forward to <IP_ADDRESS> for all connections (except some..), so my resolvconf now has "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>", but I can't even ping any adress - neither localnet nor internet. dnsmasq is running and tells in the logfile the right dns-forwards... any ideas anyone?
[11:29] <Spoozilla> Jordan_U: Crap :)
[11:29] <yusuo> sorry im just havin alot of problems settin up file sharing and to be fair hell isnt a swear in the uk
[11:29] <kael_> i've noticed a lil problem on my gutsy install, seems it uses only a small amount of my ram, is there a way to force ubuntu to use more of my 2 Gb of ram?
[11:29] <ikonia> manuel_: drop dns masq and test your network
[11:29] <tubetop> i figure if I can port scan the nfsd, then I should be able to connect...yes?
[11:29] <ikonia> yusuo: I'm in the uk and the phrase hell was uncalled for
[11:29]  * k3ito thinks its hilarious that someone would ask a question about dos attacks in here lol!!!!
[11:29] <ikonia> yusuo: please explain your problem
[11:29] <yusuo> ok ok
[11:29] <ikonia> k3ito: please stop talking about it
[11:30] <NeT_DeMoN> yusuo: www.hellboundhackers.org
[11:30] <kyle_> yusuo: these guys like to be super formal :)
[11:30] <k3ito> ikonia: ok
[11:30] <ikonia> NeT_DeMoN: that is NOT appropriate to discuss, what part of that did I not make clear
[11:30] <NeT_DeMoN> ok
[11:30] <yusuo> umm i've installed samaba and followed a wiki on ubuntu guide but when i try and access my computer through a windows terminal i have ahte no access error pop up[
[11:30] <Jordan_U> Spoozilla, What happens if you comment out line one?
[11:30] <Zenerek> yusuo: personally some of usdon't care but we don't need to use such grammer anyway
[11:30] <ikonia> yusuo: have you added the samba user (not the actual login user)
[11:31] <tubetop> any nfs gurus in the house tonight?
[11:31] <ikonia> !samba >yusuo:
[11:31] <ricanelite> how can i check to see if my graphics card is working at full 3D
[11:31] <ikonia> !samba > yusuo
[11:31] <kyle_> hahahaha
[11:31] <k3ito> right.... I'd like to transfer files between two ubuntu boxes both hooked up to the same router.  do i need samba to do this or is that just win/linux combos?? any help on how to do this would be smashers
[11:31] <kedde> I have a problem with my wireless it's really slow I tried to add "alias ipv6 off" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist when I use a cable it runs ok. I'm sitting at my school the have a really good connection normally I have a speed on over 300kb/s but now the speed is max. 50 kb/s (I'm using gutsy 32 bit) does anyone have an idea?
[11:31] <dave81> A music messaging session has been requested. Please click the MM icon to accept.
[11:31] <ikonia> yusuo: have a quick glance through the message from ubotu
[11:31] <dave81> can some one help me get my tv to work as a second monitor?
[11:31] <kyle_> NeT_DeMoN: they're harder on noobs than #ubuntu nice
[11:31] <Spoozilla> Jordan_U: Trying now... I'll go make a cup of coffee whilst I wait for the wonder of OpenFirmware to ruin my morning.
[11:31] <ricanelite> hey dave that is what i'm trying to do as well
[11:32] <Zenerek> guys is it possible to network copms via bluetooth sticks?
[11:32] <NeT_DeMoN> huh
[11:32] <ikonia> kyle_: this is a busy support channel, please limit the off topic discussion, as you can see it is busy and hard to follow
[11:32] <Jordan_U> Spoozilla, I love OpenFirmware, but it doesn't take an eon to boot for me :)
[11:32] <Zenerek> i meant comps
[11:32] <kyle_> k3ito: I'd say samba is easier to set up than nfs
[11:32] <ricanelite> why is it that out of no where my ubuntu just freezes on me
[11:32] <kyle_> ikonia: this isn't busy
[11:32] <ricanelite> or if i'm having 2-3 different application open
[11:32] <yusuo> i know that
[11:32] <Cubexombi> <kedde is your card getting toasty? fine at first but mine gets HOT to the touch after about a 20 minute session
[11:32] <NeT_DeMoN> would i be able to download frostwire from synaptic?
[11:32] <ricanelite> it will freeze up on me
[11:33] <Spoozilla> Jordan_U: What sparc kit you using?
[11:33] <yusuo> i've had it workin before on my old network but havin troubles on this one
[11:33] <k3ito> kyle: do I have to isntall on both systems?
[11:33] <Jordan_U> ricanelite, Have you tried sshing in and running top?
[11:33] <ricanelite> how do i do that?
[11:33] <kyle_> k3ito: you'd pick one to be server, and then install smbfs on the other
[11:33] <ikonia> yusuo: ok, so can the two machines ping each other by ip and / or name
[11:33] <rasecs> sera que encontro alguem de lingua portuguesa
[11:33] <Jordan_U> Spoozilla, None, just an old imac :)
[11:33] <rasecs> para me ajudar
[11:33] <ricanelite> okay i got top running in terminal and what i'm looking for?
[11:33] <Spoozilla> Jordan_U: AHhh! Hence no waiting for hardware discovery ;)
[11:34] <NeT_DeMoN> !synaptic
[11:34] <RenUbu> hrm, complete removal of samba does libsmbclient need removal, as that will kill just about evertything?
[11:34] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[11:34] <dmgubuntu> BB88: do you know what repo those packages are from?
[11:34] <k3ito> kyle: would that allow me to be at either pc and transfer files?  I've not used samba before so don't really no the score.  can I not just ftp?
[11:34] <NeT_DeMoN> how do i zoom out with the cube effect?
[11:34] <NeT_DeMoN> like zoom the cube back?
[11:34] <Chinaski1> hello
[11:35] <ricanelite> ctrl+alt mouse button 1
[11:35] <yusuo> yup i can access the windows share but not the other way round
[11:35] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, IIRC Super + scroll wheel
[11:35] <yusuo> connected through a router
[11:35] <kyle_> k3ito: yea you can set up ftp, although I've been very unlucky with that recently :)
[11:35] <ikonia> yusuo: ok, so thats a start. On the ubuntu side have you setup a user to connect as ?
[11:35] <NeT_DeMoN> holy crap
[11:35] <ikonia> NeT_DeMoN: what ?
[11:35] <NeT_DeMoN> i ment like throw the cube back
[11:35] <ikonia> NeT_DeMoN: can you please calm down and stop the commentory
[11:35] <NeT_DeMoN> like watch the cube from afar
[11:36] <triplc> hi all
[11:36] <yusuo> ???????
[11:36] <k3ito> kyle_: how would i do that?
[11:36] <triplc> what is a program like xsel (stdin - x clipboard - stdout) but with UNICODE safe? I write a text filter and it works well, but when it come to Unicode text... xsel does not work as expected :(
[11:36] <yusuo> i guess not lol how do i go bout doin that
[11:36] <yusuo> oh yeah i have
[11:36] <ikonia> yusuo: when you connect to the share hosted on your ubuntu box you need a user to authenticate against
[11:36] <ikonia> yusuo: do you follow what I'm saying
[11:36] <yusuo> yeah
[11:36] <ikonia> cool
[11:36] <ricanelite> what did it do when you press ctrl+alt+mouse button1
[11:36] <Chinaski1> ho to get a projector to work over ubuntu?
[11:36] <NeT_DeMoN> like i saw a video on youtube with the cube like far back
[11:36] <NeT_DeMoN> and it was like rotating
[11:36] <yusuo> i added the name yusuo as the smb user
[11:36] <NeT_DeMoN> how do i do that
[11:36] <ikonia> yusuo: so you've done a "sudo smbpasswd -a"
[11:37] <yusuo> yup
[11:37] <ricanelite> yeah ctrl+alt+mouse button 1
[11:37] <ikonia> yusuo: ok, thats a solid start, have you looked at the samba log files and the sys log to see what it is complaining about
[11:37] <Zenerek> so no a one knows it possible to network copms via bluetooth sticks?
[11:37] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, Change your preferences in ccsm and ctrl+alt+ drag the mouse
[11:37] <NeT_DeMoN> its not working
[11:37] <NeT_DeMoN> which preferences?
[11:37] <Jordan_U> NeT_DeMoN, 3D cube
[11:37] <yusuo> no how do i view them
[11:37] <NeT_DeMoN> ok, thanks
[11:38] <ricanelite> system+preferences and avanced desktop settings
[11:38] <kyle_> k3ito: theres a bunch of howtos on the forums, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588
[11:38] <ryanakca> Jordan_U: eh? why would synaptic be helpful to me?
[11:38] <ricanelite> what is kacpid?
[11:38]  * ryanakca assumes it's a misstab and goes to have breakfast ;)
[11:38] <novas0x2a> i have a ppa-based source in my list. However, i only want to track a few packages for it. The source's Release file meta-information matches ubuntu's- how can i change the pin priority for packages in the ppa?
[11:39] <kyle_> ricanelite: kernel acpi daemon, google acpi if you're curious ;)
[11:39] <NeT_DeMoN> yay, i got it to do it
[11:39] <NeT_DeMoN> thanks guys
[11:39] <ricanelite> well is it fine that it is doing 80 cpu?
[11:40] <tubetop> Howdy all again....I got Desktop installed and got CUPS setup and working but now I cant get NFS to work... I did the sharing using the sharing Admin tool, Admin-> Sharing. When I am on my client machine, if I do a port scan I get Open TCP port 2049 nfsd..but I cant connect....I figured if I could scan the server and see the port everything would be happy....darn....not!  any ideas on what...
[11:40] <tubetop> ...to try next.... BTW... I set the NFS sharing using Networks like <IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS>
[11:40] <Spoozilla> Jordan_U: Ok, that's made no difference
[11:40] <NeT_DeMoN> jordan_U: how do i do that bluetooth stuff you were telling me about earlier
[11:41] <dave81> can some one help me get my tv to work as a second monitor?
[11:41] <NeT_DeMoN> s-cord?
[11:41] <dave81> !pm
[11:41] <ubotu> Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[11:42] <yusuo> sorry ikonnia how do u view the samba report files

[11:43] <fyrestrtr> yusuo: what command?
[11:44] <tomaso> erver
[11:44] <yusuo> i want to have a command repeat itself cause i keep losing connection so when it goes i want it to try and download a file again automatically
[11:44] <dave81> !screen
[11:44] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[11:44] <yusuo> fyrestrtr can i pm u
[11:45] <NeT_DeMoN> pm?
[11:45] <fyrestrtr> yusuo: launch the command in !screen, then detatch the screen so it runs in the background.
[11:45] <fyrestrtr> yusuo: ctrl+a+d to detatch a screen
[11:45] <mosno> or ctrl+a+D+D if you're emo ;)
[11:46] <fyrestrtr> what tha heck is a 'emo'?
[11:46] <Gothfunc> you stick your hand up it and it bites people fyrestrtr
[11:46] <kyle_> ^a D D logs you out
[11:46] <the_wall> irc.azzurra.net
[11:46] <mosno> fyrestrtr: hahaha, google emo, someone asked almost the exact same string
[11:46] <yusuo> i dont get u sry fyresrtr
[11:47] <gmngz> hello
[11:47] <Liquidfire-> Could anyone help me with acetoneiso2
[11:47] <Liquidfire-> I need to do some chmod commands
[11:47] <kyle_> yusuo: you probably want like wget -c http://url/to/big/file
[11:47] <fyrestrtr> yusuo: install screen (sudo apt-get install screen), then run the command you want to keep running even when you lose the connection in screen -- screen somecommand
[11:47] <Liquidfire-> but iso doesn't create any folder to do them on
[11:48] <ricanelite> okay i have a major issue. The computer will just freeze on me I could move the mouse around but the I cannot do anything with the KB. It never have done this before
[11:48] <ricanelite> it has been doing it since this past weekend. I did a clean install of Ubuntu Gusty
[11:48] <magnetron> ricanelite: USB keyboard?
[11:48] <ricanelite> ps/2
[11:49] <ricanelite> i had gusty installed before and never had a issue
[11:49] <stib> tel me it's not just me. I was having a look at the microsoft viral marketing recruitment site hey-genius.com, and looked at the forum pages. After a minute or so I realised I had moderator access. have a look at http://tinyurl.com/35r9t4
[11:50] <kyle_> its a trick, they want you to feel like a genius
[11:50] <magnetron> ricanelite: it may be an IRQ conflict. try deactivating some hardware (like USB or soundcard) is BIOS temporarily
[11:50] <bazhang> offtopic stib :}
[11:50] <stib> oh.. me lame.
[11:50] <Liquidfire-> anyone ^^?
[11:50] <mosno> stib: i can delete too
[11:50] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: i think that using this opendns is dangerous cos all your info goes through somewhere else...
[11:50] <bazhang> Liquidfire-: what was your question?
[11:50] <mosno> stib: that's so stupid
[11:50] <fyrestrtr> Liquidfire-: did you mount the iso?
[11:51] <Liquidfire-> I tried, through the gui
[11:51] <Liquidfire-> its giving some errors
[11:51] <fyrestrtr> through the gui? what gui?
[11:51] <Liquidfire-> Wait i'll rehprase the question
[11:51] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, Just info about what domains you go to, and otherwise it would be still going to your ISP's DNS server
[11:52] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, If you are doing something that really needs anonymity ( and is not high bandwidth ) use tor
[11:53] <ricanelite> I also have another question. When Installing ubuntu when I setup my harddrive so I still have my Windows Partition I never put a Swap for Ubuntu Linux
[11:53] <Liquidfire-> I've installed a acetoneiso2 Debian package. When I try to run it, it works like a charm. But when I try to mount an iso it gives the following error -> "error, could not mount image" Possible sulotion activiate Fuse, but when I try to do activate fuse, I can't because the folder I need to do a chmod command on isn't there
[11:53] <ricanelite> can that be a issue?
[11:53] <VuurDraak> you still have to encrypt your connection to anther server (like using https) if you use Tor to stay realy anonymous (end servers can grab unecrypted tor data)
[11:53] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: i dont need high anonymity, just dont like sending info such as ebay transactions ie credit cards etc
[11:53] <kyle_> Liquidfire-: you're using a gui to mount an iso?
[11:53] <revilodraw> Jordan_U: what is tor anyway?
[11:54] <dave81> Help me please anyone
[11:54] <Liquidfire-> kyle_:
[11:54] <Liquidfire-> yea
[11:54] <Liquidfire-> acetoneiso
[11:54] <kyle_> yeesh just mkdir /mnt/somethingshorterthanthis and mount file /mnt/whatever -o loop
[11:54] <fyrestrtr> revilodraw: you are not sending that information. opendns is for DNS only.
[11:54] <Liquidfire-> alright
[11:54] <bazhang> dave81: what is your question
[11:54] <VuurDraak> tor is like a p2p network that tries to hide your IP
[11:54] <Liquidfire-> kyle_: i'm still used to the GUI stuff, so I don't know alot about bash yet
[11:55] <revilodraw> fyresrtr; ok thanks
[11:55] <kyle_> oh, well uh I guess you'll want to sudo both those commands
[11:55] <Liquidfire-> k
[11:55] <RenUbu> smb://IPaddress will display folders but say contents can't be displayed. any help?
[11:56] <yusuo> how do i install a file into the bash
[11:56] <dave81> bazhang: i need to set up my tv as a second screen
[11:56] <kyle_> revilodraw: your computer is broadcasting an IP! (sorry couldn't help myself)
[11:56] <girolamo> !italiano
[11:56] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[11:56] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, That information is not sent to DNS servers, literally all that is sent to a DNS server is that you are trying to go to "google.com" and all that is sent back is "<IP_ADDRESS>" which you then connect to and actually do transfers with
[11:57] <bazhang> dave81: and the question is? :}
[11:57] <Tyczek> what is the best output for mplayer with ATI fglrx?
[11:57] <dave81> how can i do that?
[11:57] <kyle_> Tyczek: start with xv
[11:57] <bazhang> dave81: you have tv out? what card?
[11:57] <ricanelite> what is xserver-xgl?
[11:57] <recluse2> I use OpenDNS, All it does is translate a domain name to the IP address, for example: if I put http://www.whateverwebstite.com into my browser opendns grabs that and sends the browser to ###.##.##.#
[11:57] <Tyczek> kyle_: I haave problem with that
[11:57] <thalass> Hello folks
[11:58] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, And banks / paypal should all have security setup such that it doesn't matter if there is some creepy guy tapping your DSL, they would not be able to get that info
[11:58] <Liquidfire-> kyle_: , it says specifiy file system tiype
[11:58] <Liquidfire-> type
[11:58] <Liquidfire-> :F
[11:58] <Tyczek> kyle_: On full screen the image quality is really bad
[11:58] <thalass> Having some trouble getting the restricted firmware on my wireless card to cooperate
[11:58] <dave81> nivida gforce card i had it set up on windows but cant get it up and running on ubuntu
[11:58] <Tyczek> otherwise GL- looks good but it's freezing and skipping
[11:58] <Jordan_U> revilodraw, But again, that is not even the case with DNS servers
[11:58] <Liquidfire-> dave81, did you ran the restricted drivers thingy?
[11:58] <Liquidfire-> are trhose sources enabled
[11:58] <kyle_> Liquidfire-: excuse me while I google this one hehehe
[11:58] <dave81> oh yes the card seems to be working ok
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> hmm
[11:59] <Tyczek> I don't know what to do with that...
[11:59] <kyle_> Liquidfire-: -t iso9660
[11:59] <dave81> just cant get it to play thrue tv
[11:59] <bazhang> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NvidiaTVOut dave81 this may help
[11:59] <kyle_> Liquidfire-: sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 file.iso /mnt/test
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> where do i add that in the command line kyle_
[11:59] <dave81> cool thank you
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> ah
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> :P
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> hEYEQ.SPEED.READING.AND.BRAIN.ENHANCEMENT.TECHNOLOGY-JGTiSO.BIN
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> mm
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> its a bin file
[11:59] <kyle_> i am a google ninja
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> loller @ copy
[11:59] <Liquidfire-> i didn't even copy paste wtf- _-?
[11:59] <bazhang> dave81: if that does not work then geexbox might be a solution
[12:00] <thalass> That's the trouble I'm having. Not sure how to enable the sources for the wireless card. Also the graphics card, but that seems to be running fine as it is so I'm not fussed just yet.
[12:00] <dave81> ok thank you for your time
[12:00] <firekool> hi I just installed my system and I don't think alsa is configured for my 5.1 sound how would I go about checking that?
[12:00] <Jordan_U> Liquid, Middle click is paste :)
[12:00] <kyle_> Liquidfire-: highlight middleclick, it used to work in firefox too :(
[12:00] <kyle_> I actually liked being able to highlight a url, go over to firefox and then middle click to go to it
[12:01] <Liquidfire-> Jordan_U, i wasn't even touching my mouse lol

[12:05] <kyle_> lesshaste: bad answer: sshd
[12:06] <soundray> lesshaste: have you installed it?

[12:07] <seldon> hi, I'm new here, just testing out xchat-gnome
[12:07] <ikonia> g[r]eek: put a file system on it, what file system do you want
[12:07] <ikonia> seldon: welcome
[12:07] <seldon> thx
[12:07] <g[r]eek> It was from a windows computer and I want to format it for ext3
[12:07] <drez> hi ppl
[12:08] <Liquidfire-> I think i got it mounted now kyle_, how can I check ?
[12:08] <kyle_> g[r]eek: mkfs.ext3 /dev/whateveritis,but be careful
[12:08] <g[r]eek> ikonia, I cannot seem to find any "format" or "fdisk" type program on the menus.
[12:08] <yusuo> im tryin to write a.sh file to repeat a command in terminal
[12:08] <kyle_> Liquidfire-: ls /mnt/iso
[12:08] <ikonia> yusuo: which commands
[12:08] <araju> lesshaste: This link might help in some ways: http://pkeck.myweb.uga.edu/ssh/
[12:08] <kyle_> or wherever it was, or just go to there with the GUI
[12:08] <g[r]eek> ok
[12:08] <Liquidfire-> alright
[12:08] <Liquidfire-> coolios
[12:08] <ikonia> g[r]eek: mke2fs -j /dev/Device_name
[12:08] <g[r]eek> mkfs
[12:08] <Liquidfire-> now I need to use wine to run the cd
[12:08] <Liquidfire-> wish me luck lol
[12:08] <ikonia> g[r]eek: where device name = /dev/sda for example
[12:08] <g[r]eek> ikonia, what is the difference between mkfs and mkefs
[12:08] <kyle_> ikonia: nooooo dont format that
[12:08] <lesshaste> araju, thanks but I don't think I need anything else
[12:09] <kyle_> format the partition!
[12:09] <ikonia> kyle_: I said for example
[12:09] <g[r]eek> sda? Isn't that my hard drive?
[12:09] <ikonia> g[r]eek: yes, as an example
[12:09] <g[r]eek> Ok
[12:09] <ikonia> g[r]eek: /dev/sdc2 for second partition on sdc
[12:09] <drez> i want to change the way ubuntu display number, from 2,000.00 to 2000,00   is this possible?
[12:09] <g[r]eek> ikonia, also, I need the USB drive to be readable both on Ubuntu and Windows
[12:09] <araju> lesshaste: In the sense, u don't need to install, but the rest of the setup should be the same
[12:09] <g[r]eek> ikonia, what filesystem do you recomend?
[12:09] <ikonia> g[r]eek: then I suggest vfat
[12:09] <kyle_> drez: isn't that app specific?
[12:09] <drez> i dunno, is it?
[12:09] <ricanelite> how do i add more desktops screens?
[12:10] <lesshaste> araju, ok... I just want sshd running when I am in telinit 1
[12:10] <g[r]eek> ikonia, I see - it seems to already be on vfat. I checked its properties. I'm just wondering if perhaps I don't need to format it at all
[12:10] <kyle_> i dunno, I'm canadian and the C locale is fine for me :)
[12:10] <ikonia> g[r]eek: sounds good to me
[12:10] <soundray> ricanelite: right-click the workspace switcher and select Preferences
[12:10] <Liquidfire-> argh
[12:10] <Jordan_U> drez, Yes, it's possible, let me see if I can find out how ( should be something about localization in the preferences )
[12:10] <Liquidfire-> i'm a sad boy now wine can't emulate the setup
[12:10] <Liquidfire-> =(
[12:10] <kyle_> drez: what program?
[12:11] <Liquidfire-> Thanks anyways kyle_
[12:11] <Liquidfire-> learned some stuff =))
[12:11] <araju> lesshaste: Guess I totally missed the question.
[12:11] <drez> Netbeans
[12:11] <lesshaste> araju, :)
[12:11] <drez> im a java developer
[12:11] <ikonia> yusuo: which commands do you wish to execute
[12:11] <araju> Anybody played around with gnupod?
[12:11] <ricanelite> how come when i zoom out to see the cube i dont have a full cube?
[12:11] <ricanelite> it seems like i only have to desktops
[12:11] <ikonia> araju: a collegue of mine is using it, he finds it good with potential, but a few bugs compared to more mature options like gtkpod
[12:12] <poeticrpm> Set virtual desktops to 4
[12:12] <araju> ikonia: Kewl. Any way I could find out more? I just "initialized" my pod with gnupod, and it does nothing now. How can I add songs to it?
[12:12] <poeticrpm> do you have ccsm ricanelite
[12:12] <ikonia> araju: no idea, never used it myself
[12:13] <araju> ikonia: Thanks anyways. Any way I can contact your friend? :)
[12:13] <ikonia> araju: not really.
[12:13] <ikonia> araju: just googled and found a few sites about it
[12:13] <linduxed> for the terminal server client....how do i check my domain/host?
[12:13] <ikonia> araju: so there is info out of there
[12:13] <lesshaste> anyone know how to send an sms from the command line in linux?
[12:13] <araju> ikonia: <sigh> Yes, that's the first thing I always try
[12:13] <linduxed> so that someone can remotecontrol my comp
[12:13] <ikonia> lesshaste: you need an sms gateway
[12:13] <ikonia> lesshaste: or connect to a cell phone with bluetooth
[12:14] <lesshaste> ikonia, ok
[12:14] <ikonia> yusuo: which commands do you wish to execute
[12:15] <Liquidfire-> general question
[12:15] <Liquidfire-> is Cedega worth buying or should I stick with a dual boot ?
[12:16] <ikonia> Liquidfire-: I don't rate any of the compatability applications
[12:16] <ikonia> Liquidfire-: but thats my personal opinion
[12:16] <Liquidfire-> k
[12:16] <g[r]eek> ikonia, in my filesystem, where is the usb drive mounted?
[12:16] <Liquidfire-> in /mnt/
[12:16] <g[r]eek> I'm too used to accessing it on my desktop - but there the files are locked. So I need to delete them as sudo
[12:16] <Liquidfire-> if i'm not mistaken
[12:16] <g[r]eek> ok Thanks
[12:16] <ikonia> g[r]eek: type mount and take a look, normally /media/$name_of _volume
[12:16] <ikonia> Liquidfire-: no its not
[12:16] <Liquidfire-> oh
[12:16] <Liquidfire-> dont listen to me lol
[12:16] <Liquidfire-> !
[12:16] <yusuo> my own command
[12:16]  * Liquidfire- runs away
[12:17] <ikonia> yusuo: which ones ?
[12:17] <ikonia> yusuo: have you made your own binaries ?
[12:17] <g[r]eek> its in /media/disk/
[12:17] <Spoozilla> yusuo: PM'ed you the answer.
[12:17] <Pici> g[r]eek: it might be easier for you to use gparted if you arent sure what device it is.  gparted is in the repository
[12:17] <ikonia> g[r]eek: excellent
[12:17] <g[r]eek> Thanks for your help guys
[12:17] <VuurDraak> Is gutsy yet fully supporting NTSF ?

[12:20] <ktosia> mqsl fails to work

[12:20] <ktosia> ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' to database 'uhdb'
[12:20] <ktosia> wtf is that
[12:20] <ikonia> Liquidfire-: join #ubuntu-forums
[12:20] <ikonia> ktosia: wtf and language of that nature is not welcome or required in #ubuntu
[12:20] <g[r]eek> ikonia, any idea what that error means / why I cannot remove files even as sudo?
[12:20] <soundray> ktosia: don't use that abbreviation here
[12:20] <ricanelite> why i don't see a full cube?
[12:20] <ktosia> oh my
[12:20] <kyle_> g[r]eek: unmount it, mkfs.ext3 the partition, also make sure the readonly switch isn't selected
[12:20] <ktosia> so how about the problem?
[12:21] <ikonia> ktosia: that command is a grant permissions command for a mysql database
[12:21] <ktosia> ikonia: why it fails
[12:21] <ktosia> ikonia: Im logged in as mysql root user, and yt I cant create new users O_o?
[12:21] <ikonia> ktosia: please pastebin it so I can re-read it
[12:21] <ktosia> ikonia: how to

[12:22] <soundray> g[r]eek: mkdosfs
[12:23] <g[r]eek> ok
[12:23] <soundray> g[r]eek: you probably want mkdosfs -F32 -- read man mkdosfs before you go ahead
[12:23] <yusuo> is anyone willin to help me in a pm window please
[12:23] <ikonia> yusuo: please ask your questions in channel
[12:23] <g[r]eek> I tried umount /media/disk but it says it's not in the fstab
[12:23] <ikonia> yusuo: there are plenty of people who can help in channel, I'm happy to help.
[12:24] <g[r]eek> I don't understand this I'm just relaying the messages exactly I appreciate your patience
[12:24] <soundray> g[r]eek: on the command line, enter 'man mkdosfs' to read about the command and its options.
[12:24] <Liquidfire-> Does anyone have any experience with wine?
[12:25] <yusuo> ikona i wrote a script that repeats a command over and over but i want it to wait till it finishes d/l in the file before it d/l's it again
[12:25] <ikonia> yusuo: what is the commands ? can you show me the script in a pastebin
[12:25] <dave81> Liquidfire-: what do you need?
[12:25] <g[r]eek> soundray, ok I need to unmount it first. It is mounted at /media/disk/ but when I try umount /media/disk/ it says "it's not in the fstab"
[12:25] <yusuo> paste bin ????
[12:25] <ricanelite> anybody use compiz?

[12:25] <Pici> !anyone | ricanelite
[12:25] <ubotu> ricanelite: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:25] <ikonia> yusuo: if you put the script in a pastebin I can see it and help you fix it
[12:25] <soundray> g[r]eek: try 'eject /media/disk'
[12:26] <ktosia> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48532/
[12:26] <ktosia> ikonia: I can create test- databases
[12:26] <g[r]eek> ok that worked
[12:26] <ikonia> ktosia: I asked you to put the grant command in the pastebin, as that is the one thats failing. why have you put every command but the grant one in the pastebin
[12:27] <yusuo>  ok i pasted it ikonia
[12:27] <ikonia> yusuo: where ?
[12:27] <ktosia> ikonia: other commands are also failing aas you can see.
[12:27] <ikonia> kst: thats because of your permissions
[12:27] <Liquidfire-> dave81, :)?
[12:27] <Pici> yusuo: you need to provide us with the link.
[12:27] <yusuo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48533/
[12:27] <soundray> g[r]eek: once you know which options you are going to use, you can enter on the command line 'sudo mkdosfs -F 32 -n YourLabel /dev/sdb' (where /dev/sdb is just an example)
[12:28] <linduxed> anyone who can give me a quick rundown on how to use the termina service client to remote control my pals comp?
[12:28] <soundray> (as are the other options I'm showing)
[12:28] <g[r]eek> Ok it seems mkfs.vfat is a link to mkdosfs - so before I do this, just to confirm, its: mkdosfs -F 32 {usb}
[12:28] <ikonia> yusuo: why do you want to get the file over and over again
[12:28] <yusuo> i dont have a reason for that one
[12:28] <ikonia> yusuo: do you want that to finish before starting a new one, or keep starting new ones while the others are downloading
[12:28] <ktosia> why ubuntu fails to provide normally working mysql?
[12:28] <Liquidfire-> Anyone got any help for this problem, of wine ? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3966918#post3966918
[12:28] <g[r]eek> soundray, ok. Now that I have unmounted my flash drive from /media/disk/ - which label am I to pass to the mkdosfs command?
[12:28] <yusuo> download one and then start another one
[12:28] <ikonia> ktosia: show me the grant command as I've asked you 3 times and I'll explain
[12:29] <ikonia> yusuo: that is a DOS attack that I told you not to request in here
[12:29] <ikonia> yusuo: I've just made a request for freenode to report your AOL username to AOL also as a breach of TOC of AOL
[12:29] <g[r]eek> soundray, or does it need to be mounted? Someone further up said I must unmount if before formatting it
[12:29] <yusuo> i dont want it for that now, mainly just cause im curious for future scipts
[12:30] <ikonia> yusuo: unacceptable
[12:30] <g[r]eek> But now I don't know how to refer to it in the format command
[12:30] <yusuo> i wanna test it and then stop it
[12:30] <soundray> g[r]eek: the 'eject' command unmounted it for you
[12:30] <ikonia> yusuo: unaccaptable
[12:30] <yusuo> its for educational purposes
[12:30] <ikonia> yusuo: unaccaptable
[12:30] <Administrator> oh lol
[12:30] <ktosia> ikonia:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48534/  thi?
[12:31] <g[r]eek> soundray, ok, so how do I refer to it in the mkdosfs command now that it's ejected (ie: no longer available at /media/disk/)?
[12:31] <ktosia> ikonia: so?
[12:31] <ikonia> ktosia: when you connect as root can you do "connect mysql"
[12:31] <soundray> g[r]eek: run 'sudo fdisk -l' and see if it is listed
[12:32] <ktosia> ikonia: mysql> connect mysql     ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' to database 'mysql'
[12:32] <Zombocom> what did yusuo do that ikonia is so pissed about
[12:32] <ktosia> ikonia: damn it Just Worked (tm) last time I tried
[12:32] <ktosia> afair on debian
[12:32] <ikonia> ktosia: what have you done to remove the access frmo the root user
[12:32] <ktosia> ikonia: nothing
[12:32] <ikonia> ktosia: try setting the mysql root user password
[12:32] <ktosia> ikonia: how to set it?

[12:39] <kaptengu> I need a program to extract emails from a webpage, any suggestions?
[12:40] <Ubuntu2> is there a program to convert avi files to dvd
[12:40] <magnetron> revilodraw: try avidemux
[12:41] <magnetron> Ubuntu2: devede
[12:41] <Ubuntu2> ty
[12:42] <g[r]eek> soundray, I'm guessing it's sdb - because sda1, sda2 and sda5 are Linux /Swap / Solaris - then sdb is below on its lonesome, with 1048mb (its a 1gig flash drive) and its sdb1, sdb2 and sdb3 counterparts have "file system unknown"
[12:43] <revilodraw> magnetron: thanks!
[12:43] <soundray> g[r]eek: unusual -- you have a "raw"-formatted filesystem then. I would recommend creating a partition then. Try gksudo gparted (you may have to apt-get install gparted)
[12:44] <ktosia> ikonia:  changing of password also fails  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48535/
[12:44] <g[r]eek> soundray, the flash disk was formatted on windows to begin with that's probably why
[12:44] <g[r]eek> But I'll try gparted
[12:44] <ibou> salut$
[12:44] <ibou> hi
[12:44] <soundray> g[r]eek: even Windows partitions flash drives these days, afaik.
[12:44] <bingk> :-Dhi
[12:44] <g[r]eek> Ok I'm busy installing gparted. Thanks for the help
[12:45] <soundray> g[r]eek: gparted will let you make the fat32 filesystem, too.
[12:45] <soundray> g[r]eek: be careful to point it to /dev/sdb -- you don't want to mess up your hard disk partitions.

[12:53] <ktosia> I just installed app armored... perhaps it is doing too good job
[12:53] <Hagg1> Can anyone point me to a good maual/howto that describes how to install nfs-kernel-server inside a chroot?  What CPU?
[12:57]  * Hagg1 feeling very alone with his nfsd-problem
[12:58] <soundray> fyrestrtr: it won't solve the problem
[12:58] <fyrestrtr> ktosia: how did you install it?
[12:58] <predaeus> Hagg1, I don't think you can unmount /proc, it is just a virtual directory representing kernel settings.
[12:58] <ktosia> soundray: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 2.53GHz
[12:58] <soundray> fyrestrtr: do you want to take over?
[12:59] <ikonia> predaeus: correct
[12:59] <fyrestrtr> ktosia: that's not a 64 bit cpi.
[12:59] <ikonia> ktosia: apologies for the distraction, I was away
[12:59] <fyrestrtr> err, cpu.
[12:59] <soundray> ktosia: you don't have ia64 then
[12:59] <ikonia> ktosia: I had something else to take care of
[12:59] <Hagg1> predaeus: It's inside a chroot and I made "# mount -t none /proc" before the installation
[12:59] <Hagg1> maby I shouldn't?
[12:59] <ikonia> ktosia: do you want to resolve this issue
[12:59] <ikonia> Hagg1: what are you trying to install ?
[13:00] <ktosia> ikonia: yeap
[13:00] <ikonia> ktosia: ok, can you just explain where you are up to
