[07:57] <Evanlec> IndyGunFreak, u ever try 64-bit ubuntu?
[07:57] <PriceChild> IndyGunFreak, priority high
[07:57] <cntb> nobody
[07:57] <PriceChild> IndyGunFreak, means only questions with a high priority get asked
[07:57] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: no... to many things don't wrk
[07:57] <zegevrijt> ubuntu needs a centrelized hardware configuration tool like harddrake.. all these seperate tools driving people nuts
[07:57] <IndyGunFreak> PriceChild: oh ok.. makes sense.. not all the stupid stuff.
[07:57] <notchNICK> Does anyone know if it is possible to retreive data if a partition got marked with an exclamation mark while using gparted cd?
[07:57] <cki> i need ( i think it was ) 1680 x 1240
[07:57] <warbler> !synaptic
[07:57] <Evanlec> IndyGunFreak, i read that u just have to install 32-bit firefox and then the flash/java stuff is ok
[07:57] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[07:57] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: but then, to my knowledge, w32codecs don't work.
[07:58] <IndyGunFreak> so if you don't use any windows media files, you'll be fine.
[07:58] <Evanlec> IndyGunFreak, video codecs dont work?
[07:58] <IndyGunFreak> no.
[07:58] <multiverse> korhaf:  use the du command:  http://www.codecoffee.com/tipsforlinux/articles/22.html
[07:58] <Ranpha1> is it possible to use crossover network on linux?
[07:58] <zegevrijt> vlc can play wmv by default
[07:58] <Evanlec> IndyGunFreak, what about xvid/ffdshow stuff?
[07:58] <[fireman] > eurgh not again
[07:58] <cki> PriceChild thanks ill restart the X server :) and ill come back :)
[07:58] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: opensource ones probably work ok..., ist the windows formats/closed formats you'll likely have issues with(avi, mp3, etc.)
[07:58] <[fireman] > I installed that ntfs-3g via synaptic and still ktorrent doesn't save
[07:58] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: note..*probably*
[07:58] <[fireman] > its giving me the same error.
[07:59] <Evanlec> i c
[07:59] <zegevrijt> libacodec can play a lot of stuff
[07:59] <Evanlec> zegevrijt, u using 64-bit?
[07:59] <multiverse> Here's my question:  I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 64 bit onto a Lenovo Thinkpad R61 (a very new notebook).  I started it up in vga=792 mode and installed a new package like so:  apt-get install nvidia-glx-new for the nVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M, PC Card/ PCIe.  I want to switch from the vga to the nVIDIA, but I don't know how.
[07:59] <zegevrijt> not currently although one of the pc's is 64 bit it runs 32 bit now
[08:00] <Evanlec> what was your experience with it?
[08:00] <PriceChild> multiverse, system > admin > restricted drivers manager
[08:00] <multiverse> PriceChild:  I can't get X to come up.
[08:00] <PriceChild> multiverse, why not?
[08:00] <multiverse> I am in VGA mode at the moment.
[08:01] <zegevrijt> qwhen i had 64bit os on it i had trbouble with ati drivers and some stuff but that was la year ago
[08:01] <Evanlec> ah
[08:01] <PriceChild> multiverse, oh sorry i'm with you
[08:01] <zegevrijt> is there a wine now for 64 bit?
[08:01] <PriceChild> multiverse, what driver is /etc/X11/xorg.conf using?
[08:01] <multiverse> there is no xorg.conf
[08:02] <IndyGunFreak> then that explains your problem
[08:02] <PriceChild> multiverse, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[08:02] <Ktron> Trying to find cli ways to check the status of a service (running/stopped) and report the version of ubuntu
[08:03] <Kousotu> what does "repair a broken system" do? and whatare the differences between a GFX install and a text one?
[08:03] <bruenig> Ktron, more specific?
[08:03] <Ktron> bruenig, about which part?
[08:04] <bruenig> Ktron, well which service are you talking about, does this service have anything in it that reports these sorts of things, etc.
[08:04] <CoasterMaster> Kton: do display the version of Ubuntu you're using, cat /etc/issue
[08:04] <doktoreas> how can i reduce the cpu speed?
[08:04] <IndyGunFreak> text is well, text
[08:05] <Ktron> bruenig, its my company's service, and I'm trying to avoid asking them to build in more functionality
[08:05] <Kousotu> besides the obvious difference
[08:05] <Ktron> bruenig, fedora core lets you do 'service servicename status'
[08:05] <Ktron> bruenig, and (I think) gentoo let's you do 'rc-status servicename'
[08:05] <bruenig> Ktron, oh you mean daemon, ok  you were using fedora aliases
[08:05] <Ktron> bruenig, yes, sorry, I do mean daemon
[08:06] <ubuntu> hello
[08:06] <ubuntu> anyone alive
[08:06] <urthmover> no
[08:06] <multiverse> no
[08:06] <EchoBinary> yes!
[08:06] <urthmover> well kinda
[08:06] <ramster> not much longer
[08:06] <bruenig> Ktron, not sure for ubuntu, they do have a variet of rc* commands, might try doing rc<tab><tab> and seeing what looks good
[08:06] <keito> HELP! just changed my monitor from a sony 15" CRT to a 22" and now the picture doesn't fit thescreen properly.  had a look at my xorg.conf and it's still showing the old monitor settings.  where can I find the correct ones??????????

[08:07] <bruenig> Ktron, do ls /usr/bin | grep rc
[08:08] <keito> do I have to reconfigure my X server then?
[08:08] <Mark_newb> hello
[08:08] <bruenig> keito, yeah, how else are you expecting to change the settings to meet your new configuration?
[08:08] <Mark_newb> just a couple questions about installing
[08:08] <Ktron> bruenig, apt-ftparchive, dircolors, exo-csource, foomatic-searchprinter, hp-colorcal, paperconf, rcp, xarchiver, xdf-icon-resource
[08:08] <keito> I'm new to this
[08:08] <keito> 80)
[08:08] <keito> wouldn't know where to begin reconfiguring X
[08:08] <Mark_newb> when i go to install ubuntu i am getting errrors when i have it automatically partition
[08:09] <Ktron> CoasterMaster, thanks for cat /etc/issue
[08:09] <ylle> hey guys, I got this thing "new distribution release 7.04..." in my update manager thing.
[08:09] <bruenig> Ktron, well, I am not sure, I am not using ubuntu so I can't check that out, I know how to do it on arch
[08:09] <ylle> How much time/wait is it?
[08:09] <urthmover> irssi is the best irc client ever
[08:09] <ylle> And, should I press the update it?
[08:09] <Ktron> bruenig, just for refrence, what's it on Arch?
[08:09] <ferronica> can i install window 98se over ubuntu
[08:09] <cki> :( nuffin
[08:09] <urthmover> over?
[08:10] <Evanlec> why would u want to install 98se
[08:10] <aricz> games?
[08:10] <urthmover> inside vmware or Xen
[08:10] <keito> bruenig: can this potentially mess up my current setup?
[08:10] <bruenig> Ktron, on arch when a daemon is launched via init at least, the name of the daemon is touched in /var/run/daemons, so you have empty text files for all the things
[08:10] <urthmover> just do XP and use compat mode
[08:10] <keito> bruenig: do I choose vesa at the start for instance?
[08:10] <IndyGunFreak> ferronica: youc an, but it will be a pain in the.... easiest thing to do, install windows, thenn reinstall ubuntu.
[08:10] <bruenig> keito, it is meant to mess up your current setup, your current setup is wrong
[08:10] <aricz> not the same.. besides, you won't get "pure dosmode"..
[08:11] <keito> bruenig: I *mean* with compiz-fusion at al
[08:11] <ferronica> IndyGunFrea: okay
[08:11] <Ktron> bruenig, /var/run looks like it might have a useful file so I can write something
[08:11] <Ktron> bruenig, thanks
[08:11] <llanes> how im conectt to chaneel of ubuntu argentina?
[08:11] <ferronica> IndyGunFrea: so i have to format my HDD right
[08:11] <IndyGunFreak> ferronica: i guess it goes w/o sayng, make sure important files, etc, are backed up.
[08:11] <cki> so someone got idea? :S why my X server dont stars with NVidia driver on 6200 :S
[08:11] <keito> bruenig: is there no way to auto-detect the current setup?
[08:11] <IndyGunFreak> ferronica: just insert youur 98SE disk, and let it format the whole drive and install.
[08:12] <ferronica> IndyGunFrea: okay thanx
[08:12] <IndyGunFreak> then boot your Ubuntu disk, and reinstall ubuntu, and then restore your files from your backup
[08:12] <ferronica> IndyGunFrea: :)

[08:13] <cki> Anyone can help me with NVidia drivers on 6200 please?
[08:13] <pi3> Hit3k, I'm receiving a lot of connections to the port 22 (SSH) but Firestarter is blocking them.. would Ubuntu be safe in case I didn't have that firewall?
[08:13] <Zenom> man i wish my host used ubuntu server instead of debian
[08:13] <Zenom> so tired of outdated packages lol
[08:13] <Crustacean-Bob> Speech | anyone?
[08:13] <IndyGunFreak> Zenom: they're almost identical.
[08:13] <IndyGunFreak> well, that is one difference
[08:13] <Mark_newb> indy says it can't unmount
[08:14] <cki> Anyone can help me with NVidia drivers on 6200 please?
[08:14] <Zenom> IndyGunFreak: yeah the packages, i mean memcached 1.1.12 in stable

[08:14] <IndyGunFreak> Mark_newb: well thats not a very good explanation of your problem
[08:14] <monkeyBox> Ugh.. I'm trying to change my keybindings in compiz-fusion for window resizing to Mod4-Mouse2,  but It's not accepting my changes.  Even when I disable the conflicting one.
[08:15] <art> hello -
[08:15] <art> i cant update my 6.12 to 7,04 - i have that error
[08:15] <ajay> can someone please help?
[08:15] <kanuha> cki, did you enable the restricted drivers?
[08:16] <cki> it says i dont need one :S
[08:16] <warbler> who can help with chmod syntax?
[08:16] <Crustacean-Bob> Art: how about sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[08:16] <cki> nothin there :S
[08:16] <Mark_newb> indy guy i go install ubuntu and after it does the partition scan and i tell it to do guided-entire disk it goes to start the install and then comes back and says that the required changes cannot be commited because it cannot unmount /media/new\040volume
[08:16] <art> let me chceck
[08:16] <cki> i tryed last time but the X server dont stars again :(
[08:16] <art> :)
[08:16] <ajay> im thinking of getting ubuntu but need to know if it will erase my xp
[08:16] <ajay> ?
[08:16] <monkeyBox> It's wierd, because it changes to <Super>Button2 for half a second, then changes back to <Alt>Button2
[08:16] <iehova> Ajay, if you choose to
[08:16] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: only if you tell it to.
[08:16] <shade_>
[08:16] <ajay> so is it clear
[08:16] <Crustacean-Bob> warbler: what about chmod?
[08:17] <kanuha> cki, did you try installing using synaptic?
[08:17] <ajay> then will it let me choose to boot ubuntu or xp?
[08:17] <art> i have full updatet ubuntu 6,12 and cant update it to 7,04
[08:17] <iehova> ajay, the first option for partitioning in the installer dialog is toresize the existing partition (which will be XP) and install ubuntu on the rest. This allows for a dual boot.
[08:17] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: its pretty easy...
[08:17] <ajay> ok
[08:17] <iehova> You will be able to select ubuntu or xp on startup with GRUB
[08:17] <Crustacean-Bob> art: try a new livecd of 7.4
[08:17] <[fireman] > hmm IndyGunFreak
[08:17] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: how do you plan to install your system?
[08:17] <ajay> im gonna get it so i dont partition?
[08:17] <sbahra> hi
[08:17] <[fireman] > my external is mounted as ready only
[08:17] <[fireman] > and it says
[08:17] <monkeyBox> none of my keybindings work in compiz.  I can't even use the default ones :-(
[08:17] <cki> kanuha i installed with Envy and it makes the Xorg.conf but the X dont starts again
[08:17] <ajay> with xp and ubuntu
[08:17] <sbahra> i wunt to use ubuntu?
[08:17] <[fireman] >  You are not the owner , so you can't change these permissions?!!?!
[08:18] <cki> then i tryed with Automatix 2
[08:18] <[fireman] > how can I change the perms to 777 /
[08:18] <sbahra> does ubuntu have office with it?
[08:18] <cki> and same stuff :S
[08:18] <art> i dont have free cd and need to instal it now;/
[08:18] <[fireman] > sbahra, yes
[08:18] <[fireman] > Open Office
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: i mean, do you plan to have xp on one drive, ubuntu on another, or partition the 1 drive, for XP and Ubuntu to share.
[08:18] <sbahra> [fireman] ,  chmod 777
[08:18] <shade_> how can i view the user list in xchat ?
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> or what else?
[08:18] <ajay> partion for both

[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: on one drive?
[08:18] <[fireman] > sbahra, how do I do that to my external?
[08:18] <art> i have something like that
[08:18] <ajay> yes
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> ok..
[08:18] <Mark_newb> indygunfreak i go install ubuntu and after it does the partition scan and i tell it to do guided-entire disk it goes to start the install and then comes back and says that the required changes cannot be commited because it cannot unmount /media/new\040volume
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: obvioiusly, make sure you have a good backup
[08:18] <sbahra> [fireman] , oh, you have to upgrade the mount to rw.
[08:18] <Crustacean-Bob> art what do you get when you try dist-upgrade?
[08:19] <warbler> Crustacean-Bob: the syntax to change write permissions - I think it is - sudo chmod -Rv me:me /dev/ card#
[08:19] <sbahra> but i go now ;[
[08:19] <art> that my version dont need any updates
[08:19] <IndyGunFreak> Mark_newb: are you installing from the Live CD?
[08:19] <ajay> but can i definantly do it
[08:19] <kanuha> cki, it may be tryint to use a resolution or color depth your card doesn't support. You can try to edit your xorg.conf file manually.
[08:19] <ajay> i cant take the risk of losing things on xp
[08:19] <AdemoS|Away> Okay quick question, I just got a pre-instlled computer with Fiesty. But since I'm a linux newbie, I can't figure out which mount I'm supposed to put STUFF in. As in Downloads, Art projects, photos, music etc. I can't seem to find a directory where I can create a new folder...
[08:19] <Ranpha1> Does anybody KNOWS the setting for a crossover network setup???? because not even google knows this

[08:19] <ryanakca> Is there a way to add new users, from a file containing 'username:password' or 'username:shell:password', or of the same format as that for FreeBSD's 'adduser -f <filenam>'? (Or a way to easily add 35 users)

Selecting to uninstall the compiz package through synaptic tells me that this will also uninstall ubuntu-desktop... err... should I? It sounds slightly ominous.

[08:27] <kanuha> cki, you can use that command to view the file and see what resolutions are listed. Then you can delete any that your card doesn't support.

[08:29] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: thats good..
[08:29] <CoasterMaster> iehova: it's ok if you remove ubuntu-desktop, it's a metapackage that doesn't really contain everything, it just depends on all packages that are installed as a part of the standard ubuntu install.  it will be 'removed' because desktop-effects is part of the standard ubuntu install
[08:29] <multiverse> (10:59:39 AM) multiverse: Here's my question:  I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 64 bit onto a Lenovo Thinkpad R61 (a very new notebook).  I started it up in vga=792 mode and installed a new package like so:  apt-get install nvidia-glx-new for the nVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M, PC Card/ PCIe.  I want to switch from the vga to the nVIDIA, but I don't know how.

[08:29] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: you should torrent..., you'll get it in notime.

[08:29] <ajay> its gonna take 6 mins altogether
[08:29] <dzb> How do I rewrite grub into MBR after WinXP inst?

[08:30] <Xero> Hi, Is there someone who can help me install ubuntu on my laptop?
[08:30] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: remember when you burnt he ISO to a disk, burn it SLOW..
[08:30] <ajay> so is ubuntu good
[08:30] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: i love it, only have Windows for my GPS device.
[08:30] <rambo3> !paste
[08:30] <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)
[08:30] <CoasterMaster> ajay: yes, but I admit I'm biased
[08:30] <ajay> can i mount it to daemon tool?
[08:30] <IndyGunFreak> ajay: know nothing of that, i don't know.
[08:30] <astro76> ajay, no
[08:30] <CoasterMaster> ajay: no, you have to actually burn it to a CD to install
[08:30] <ajay> ok
[08:30] <aarcane> how do I install Ubuntu into an LVM group ?
[08:30] <[fireman] > astro76,
[08:31] <astro76> aarcane, you need the alternate install cd
[08:31] <[fireman] > I enabled write for external devices
[08:31] <aarcane> astro76, oh
[08:31] <Kousotu> aarcane: the text instalerhas that feature I believe
[08:31] <[fireman] > yet I still can't copy files
[08:31] <[fireman] > whats up
[08:31] <[fireman] > do I need to remount it?
[08:31] <CoasterMaster> [fireman]  you have to remount
[08:31] <[fireman] > reboot?
[08:31] <iehova> CoasterMaster, but might it not break upgrading? From Synaptic: "[ubuntu desktop]  is also used to help ensure proper upgrades, so it is recommended that it not be removed.
[08:31] <Strawberryjam> ok that seems easy enough thank you...linux is much easier than i figured it would be...thanks to ubuntu
[08:31] <[fireman] > ahh l
[08:31] <[fireman] > thanks CoasterMaster
[08:31] <an0malist> Could someone tell me why this line ruins my sudoers file?
[08:31] <an0malist> www-data	ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/adduser /bin/chmod
[08:31] <aarcane> Kousotu, I'm trying to install it side by side with another distro (preferably sharing a /boot) using LVM
[08:31] <an0malist> that block is a tab
[08:32] <Kousotu> why is the text installer so slow?
[08:32] <kanuha> cki, you will find the info under 'section screen'. a safe bet would be 1024x768 with defaultdepth at 24.
[08:32] <CoasterMaster> iehova: i'm not sure, i know removing it won't have any immediate effects, but you also don't really have to remove desktop-effects....it's your choice
[08:32] <Strawberryjam> how can i maually remove the xorg.conf.backup files...need to save a new configuration
[08:32] <cki> ye i know it i tryed it.. :S
[08:32] <iehova> CoasterMaster, Ok, thanks then
[08:32] <Xero> I'm having trouble installing ubuntu to my Laptop, can anyone help me?

[08:32] <weilawei>  vwpqx7dh84
[08:33] <staykovmarin> Strawberryjam, rm??
[08:33] <Kousotu> Xero: hopefully, wht's the problem?
[08:33] <IndyGunFreak> Strawberryjam: you'll have to use sudo for access to that file.
[08:33] <danbygrace> hey I found it
[08:33] <lee__> ok guys thanks for fixing X for me but now i have a bigger problem
[08:33] <Strawberryjam> nvidia wont save the xconfog file as it has to remove the old backups or rewrite them
[08:33] <kanuha> iehova, I installed fusion and I had to uninstall ubuntu-desktop. system still works great after.
[08:33] <Xero> When I use the CD, it looks like it's booting into the Live CD OS, but it just goes to a black screen afterward
[08:33] <yml> hello

[08:34] <warbler> usser: sda1 is the memory card
[08:34] <Xero> I know it works, because it came up once
[08:34] <danbygrace> do you recomend Avast?
[08:34] <kanuha> cki, try switching the driver from 'nvidia' back to 'nv' and see it x somes up.
[08:34] <Xero> Now it gives me some strange error message
[08:35] <Kousotu> Xero: run in safe mode
[08:35] <Strawberryjam> 15 mins to download of feisty left :)
[08:35] <astro76> an0malist, you need commas to separate the paths, so: www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/adduser, /bin/chmo
[08:35] <warbler> usser: hda... is the hard drive
[08:35] <bagualas> better option to desklets is the gdesklets?
[08:35] <lee__> i think ive broken ubuntu again :P
[08:35] <multiverse>  I restart my laptop and am eventually greeted with a blue screen that says the X server failed to start.  I review the error message and get this:

[08:35] <Kousotu> if it appears, it's probably the only plce it will
[08:35] <xjkx> my printer has only the black color, the other ones are out. Cups cant print, i think it uses the colors even though i want it to just print the black color, i am using "Color Model:  Grayscale"

[08:37] <warbler> usser: yes
[08:37] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.
[08:37] <usser> warbler if so first you have to mount the drive
[08:37] <usser> warbler do sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[08:37] <Xero> Kousotu: it looks like the same thing
[08:37] <lee__> anyone Free for a minuite or two?
[08:37] <warbler> usser: drive mountedread only

[08:37] <usser> warbler umount it then
[08:37] <Kousotu> Xero: did it open?
[08:37] <ubuntulover> can I use synaptic to find all installed packages that don't exist in the repositories (list manually installed packages from .deb files)?
[08:37] <aj_> IndyGunFreak any ideas
[08:37] <Xero> No
[08:37] <usser> warbler do sudo umount /dev/sda1
[08:38] <IndyGunFreak> aj_: no.. sorry
[08:38] <warbler> usser: have & remounted

[08:38] <Kasuko> May I request some help? I am looking to install SyncEvolution and I downloaded the .deb from the sourceforge page but when I opened it with Package Installer I get the Error Wrong Architecture 'armel'. Any thoughts?
[08:38] <aj_> anybody else have any ideas
[08:38] <warbler> usser: maybe windows type formatting prob?
[08:38] <usser> warbler where did u mount it?
[08:38] <lee__> i have a simple issue :) just waiting for someone to be free
[08:38] <usser> warbler nah unlikely
[08:38] <warbler> K
[08:38] <zerogroundin1> hallo
[08:39] <Xero> This is a fresh Hard drive, could that attribute to the problem?
[08:39] <warbler> usser: media
[08:39] <usser> warbler most likely since its mounted with sudo only root has writing access to it
[08:39] <ubuntulover> how can I find a list of all packages that were installed from .deb files?
[08:39] <usser> warbler so try accessing it as root
[08:39] <warbler> chown says I own it
[08:39] <subpar> is it recommended that I not write data to my NTFS hard drives?
[08:39] <kanuha> lee__, ask your question
[08:39] <usser> warbler hm is it NTFS?
[08:39] <Evanlec> subpar, u can write to ntfs drives no problem
[08:39] <lee__> kanuha,  is this wrong for a dvd rom drive ? /dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[08:40] <Kousotu> Xero: not at all
[08:40] <Xero> ok
[08:40] <subpar> Evanlec, I just need to set the permissions then right? I remember back in 6.06, people were telling me not to do it, since it could make my drives unstable
[08:40] <ubuntulover> subpar I use ntfs3g and never had any problems. If there are problems, the drive mounts as read-only
[08:40] <IndyGunFreak> subpar: it still can..,
[08:40] <Kasuko> May I request some help? I am looking to install SyncEvolution and I downloaded the .deb from the sourceforge page but when I opened it with Package Installer I get the Error Wrong Architecture 'armel'. Any thoughts?
[08:40] <Evanlec> subpar, yea what he said
[08:40] <lee__> kanuha, because i just swaped a cd drive for a dvd rom drive and now its not working and i dont understand why i only jumped from winblows today :)
[08:40] <Kousotu> Xero: you need to grab the alternate install cd
[08:41] <ubuntulover> subpar but usually that is fixed by restarting into windows and then back to your real system
[08:41] <dorana> hi, anyone know anyway to get latest flashplayer on Ununtux64?
[08:41] <warbler> usser:no
[08:41] <subpar> oh but I don't have any windows now
[08:41] <Xero> So that means this CD is bad?
[08:41] <subpar> I just got pissed off at it, went from dual boot to single boot ubuntu
[08:41] <kanuha> lee__,  this is my conf in fstab, /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[08:41] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[08:41] <IndyGunFreak> Xero: what makes you think you're cd is bad?
[08:42] <ubuntulover> Anyone know about synaptic (or another program) that will let me see what packages are installed that don't exist in repository?
[08:42] <lee__> kanuha,  so should i just add that?
[08:42] <usser> warbler well do cd /pathToYourMount && sudo mkdir test
[08:42] <kanuha> lee__, it should work, yours is the same as mine
[08:42] <reallyjoel> strawberry fields forever
[08:42] <usser> warbler then see if it creates a dir test
[08:42] <Strawberryjam> :)
[08:42] <warbler> usser: mount -0  remount,rw disk/ worked!
[08:43] <warbler> usser: thnx
[08:43] <lee__> kanuha, but it doesnt all i did was unplug a cd rom and put in a DVD rom and now nothing happens yet it finds it fine in bios? so its definatly a fault with the os?
[08:43] <ubuntulover> A lot of stuff broke or became unstable switching to gutsy, and reinstalling them fixed them... but I have a lot of manual packages and want to fix everything before I figure out how broken it is
[08:43] <usser> warbler oh well =)
[08:43] <astro76> ubuntulover, synaptic will, any packages that aren't in an enabled repository will appear in "local" (or something like that) if click "Origin"
[08:43] <warbler> k
[08:44] <ubuntulover> THANK YOU!
[08:44] <zerogroundin1> /close
[08:44] <kanuha> lee__, can you mount it?
[08:44] <dorana> how do I get latest flashplayer for ubuntu x64 architecture?

[08:44] <IndyGunFreak> dorana: first, jump through a bunch of hoops.
[08:44] <IndyGunFreak> !flash64
[08:44] <ubotu> You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[08:44] <Evanlec> dorana, i'll let u know when ive got 65bit installed

[08:46] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: good luck
[08:47] <lee__> kanuha, ok mate thanks anyways ;)
[08:47] <Evanlec> tx ;)
[08:47] <an0malist> sorry ubotu :(
[08:47] <an0malist> ;D
[08:47] <astro76> usser, printers use color to print grayscale
[08:47] <IndyGunFreak> !sorry | an0malist
[08:47] <ubotu> an0malist: It's ok, I can't stay mad at you.
[08:47] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: hi long time, yeha i was just wondering will be purchasing a new HD soon and I just though I could clone the data I have onto that one
[08:47] <xjkx> astro76: there isnt such model. models are: Grayscale Inverted Grayscale RGB Color CMY Color CMYK KCMY
[08:47] <Xero> Kousotu: I'm downloading the ISO right now, it shouldn't be more than a few minutes
[08:47] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: you might be able to, im' not really sure though..
[08:47] <warbler> !clone

[08:48] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: thanx will look around or just do it the old fashion way
[08:48] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: maybe you could use some sort fo drive cloneing utility
[08:48] <astro76> usser, if it only used black, it would need nasty halftoning to achieve different shades of gray
[08:48] <an0malist> !thanks
[08:48] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[08:48] <an0malist> heh heh
[08:48] <pteague_work> lee__> have you used modprobe or something similar to load the new drivers for the dvd-rom?
[08:48] <warbler> lee__: tried it in windows yet?
[08:49] <astro76> xjkx, you might be out of luck, you need a way to switch into black&white only mode
[08:49] <lee__> warbler, nope i just droped winblows to install linux to find out how good it is (but it came from a windows machine thats how i know it works)

[08:49] <yatiohi> Hello! does anybody know which package i have to install to do: man pthread.h
[08:49] <astro76> xjkx, what printer?
[08:49] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: that may make it a bit easier..., but itlooks like it would stillr equire you to reinstall the actual OS>
[08:49] <lee__> pteague_work, i just unpluged the old one and pluged in a new one :)
[08:50] <xjkx> astro76: epson stylus c85
[08:50] <Strawberryjam> anybody have any idea why firefox wont open any website yet the chat client runs fine...i had a similar problem with vista when it installed the updated driver to my nforce network controller?
[08:50] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: thats to replicate packages I wish to clone one HD and send it to another larger HD. I basically want to everything and that includes the OS
[08:50] <sayanriju> does the KUBUNTU gutsy ver include compiz fusion by default??
[08:50] <warbler> lee__: look in hardware info - see if it is there
[08:50] <usser> Strawberryjam probably something wrong with DNS setup on your machine
[08:50] <lee__> warbler, how?
[08:50] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: yes it does make it easier but I only have one machine
[08:50] <rexy_> Any way to permanently disable the joystick thingy in the keyboard of my laptop?
[08:51] <pteague_work> lee__> like in windows, linux needs drivers to be able to use the new drive... in your case it sounds like the cd-rom drive & the dvd-rom drive use 2 different drivers...  i believe there's a hardware detection program that will automatically take care of that, but i'm not sure what it is
[08:51] <Kousotu> rexy_: touchpad, yes
[08:51] <Strawberryjam> DNS...hhhhmmmmm...I have no idea what that is...:)
[08:51] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: yeah i know,  you could copy the file to CD, reinstall ubuntu, then take the cd, and run that restore command, not easy by any stretch.
[08:51] <astro76> xjkx, well it's listed as working only "mostly", so I wonder what the problem is: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-Stylus_C85
[08:51] <rexy_> Kousotu: i am using the touchpad, i want to disable the joystick, as it somtimes gets stuck in a certain direction
[08:51] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: does that drive have just Ubuntu, or ubuntu and xp?
[08:51] <art> what repository i need add to upgrade my ubuntu 6,12 to 7,04
[08:51] <Kousotu> oh.. hm... I'm not sure bout thta one
[08:51] <pteague_work> rexy_> i believe there is a way via the xorg.conf file
[08:51] <NemesisD> hi, for some reason whenever i connect via ssh to this machine after a few minutes i get this: Read from remote host <IP_ADDRESS>: Connection reset by peer
[08:51] <warbler> lee__: system tools on my feisty
[08:52] <rexy_> sayanriju: for gutsy stuff try ubuntu+1
[08:52] <IndyGunFreak> !upgrade | art
[08:52] <ubotu> art: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:52] <Strawberryjam> art just install all updates on update manager
[08:52] <lee__> pteague_work, i kinda figured it would be a driver issue but i have no idea how to make it work and im missing out on world of warcraft :(
[08:52] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: m$ XP, Feisty, Drapper & Xubuntu - dont ask why
[08:52] <rexy_> pteague_work: that would be my guess too, heh
[08:52] <usser> Strawberryjam in console try doing something like host google.com
[08:52] <warbler> lee__: system-preferences
[08:52] <xjkx> astro76: but the options should but there anyway :s seems like cups thingy

[08:52] <usser> Strawberryjam any meaningful output??
[08:52] <art> i install all updates

[08:57] <usser> Strawberryjam right, well first off try to restart your dsl modem

[08:57] <xjkx> "black light film" maybe?
[08:57] <Strawberryjam> usually that helps
[08:57] <Strawberryjam> but after a while it just does the same again

[08:58] <Strawberryjam> btw...how can i stop the modem from dialing auto on startup...i accidentally enabled it when i configured pppoeconf...not it does that all the time
[08:59] <lee__> warbler, i cant i dont have a live cd here but the disk that is in the drive is definatly working because i installed this disk about 20 mins ago
[08:59] <arman> hello, i want to run two commands on startup automaticly, how can i do that?
[08:59] <monkeyBox> yeah, the keybindings still don't work
[08:59] <warbler> K
[08:59] <Strawberryjam> re run pppoeconf i guess ya?
[08:59] <astro76> bobgill, if they're separate but adjacent, that must mean you have a extended partition (container for logical partitions) to resize
[08:59] <warbler> lee__ one min
[08:59] <monkeyBox> The move window stuff works now :-p

[08:59] <pteague_work> anybody heard anything on mobile ubuntu lately?
[09:00] <lee__> warbler, could it not be the fact that the fstab file is still pulling the origonal CD-Rom Drive ? because i all i did was pull out the CD-Rom and plug in the DVD-Rom?
[09:00] <UncleD> pteague_work: You mean iBuntu? :D
[09:00] <cox377> does anyone know a command for restarting all usb devices or a usbdevice? IE KVM switch?
[09:00] <usser> Strawberryjam oh i see, that happens with dsl, usually that means problems with your phone line or just faulty modem
[09:00] <_tux> arman: I wouldn't specifically know how to do that but you can make a bash script to execute commands at a particular time
[09:01] <warbler> lee__: sudo gedit fstab pls - but cd drivers work dvd too
[09:01] <Strawberryjam> k...thank you
[09:01] <lee__> warbler, got it up
[09:01] <pteague_work> UncleD> no idea... i just remember hearing something about there was going to be a version for phones... i'm hoping i can use it on my phone... i got it cause it was advertised as playing mp3s, but it doesn't really (it does, but its a pita) - it plays wmas (blech) just fine

[09:03] <lee__> warbler, done
[09:03] <bobgill> astro76: Is there any way around it or am I stuck with having to have 2 separate partitoins ?
[09:03] <Fenix|work> is there an Ubuntu installer that's in spanish?
[09:04] <astro76> bobgill, ok so they're not adjacent, your swap partition is in between. Just move the swap to the right
[09:04] <lee__> warbler, it ejected the disk
[09:04] <_tux> arman: http://tille.garrels.be/training/bash/ and here http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ should help
[09:04] <warbler> lee__: and did it open
[09:04] <arman> thanks alot
[09:04] <lee__> warbler, yes
[09:04] <pteague_work> UncleD> $ aptitude search apache | grep ^i     & see if apache2 is installed...  might be useful to try to uninstall apache2 & then reinstall
[09:04] <bobgill> astro76: okay, how ?

[09:04] <astro76> bobgill, click it, click resize/move, and slide it to the right
[09:04] <warbler> lee__ not the dvd then - try another disk to check
[09:04] <Fenix|work> a friend of mine is looking to play with linux but english is a second language and she's not that proficient in it yet.

[09:04] <bobgill> astro76: doesn't allow me.. there's a lock icon next to it
[09:05] <astro76> bobgill, oh you're using that swap currently
[09:05] <lee__> warbler, ok testing now on a disk i know works cus i just checked it in my mates machine
[09:05] <astro76> bobgill, type in a terminal: sudo swapoff -a
[09:05] <NemesisD> for some reason whenever i connect via ssh to this machine after a few minutes i get this: Read from remote host <IP>: Connection reset by peer. anyone know what might be causing this? i can't finish the installation im trying to do
[09:05] <lee__> warbler, woot that worked ;)
[09:05] <lee__> warbler, must of been locked or something :P

[09:06] <[fireman] > does anyone know how to get a dock like that on ubuntu?
[09:06] <[fireman] > apparently its just a theme
[09:06] <astro76> bobgill, now you can move it, when you're done you can reenable swap with sudo swapon -a
[09:06] <astro76> bobgill, turned off all swap partitions
[09:06] <warbler> lee__: probably just the disk :)
[09:06] <lee__> warbler, no the disk i was using a seccond ago that wouldnt load now loads fine

[09:07] <IndyLucian> [fireman] , you mean the panel at the bottom?
[09:07] <pteague_work> umount -l is a wonderful thing for blasted samba shares
[09:07] <lee__> warbler, they all do after the eject command so thanks :)
[09:07] <astro76> bobgill, you can't modify mounted (or in the case of swap, enabled) filesystems
[09:07] <warbler> lee__: you can make a launcher to open the dvd with " eject "
[09:07] <[fireman] > IndyLucian, I think its called gnome dock
[09:07] <lee__> warbler,  how?
[09:07] <[fireman] > would synaptic have that too?
[09:07] <bobgill> astro76: ahh yes, it makes sense now :) thanks very much, great help friend :)
[09:08] <pteague_work> whoever posted that new screen for gnome... that looks like mac
[09:08] <IndyLucian> i had that setup. . . all i did was right click the TOP panel, and add a new panel at the bottom. i then went to the properties of that panel by right-clicking and making the icons a bit larger. . . and you can also make the panel sit in the center like the pic shows too
[09:08] <pteague_work> i do like the firefox & thunderbird icons
[09:08] <IndyGunFreak> [fireman] : google "How to Make Ubuntu look like a Mac" or something like that, there's several faq's
[09:08] <m11> hi all, i instaled updated system with : libwrap0  , and after that my wlan stoped working. it acting real weird atm. can someone help ?

[09:09] <[fireman] > just asking for an add on
[09:09] <warbler> lee__: right click panel - top of screen - then choose custom app launcher - then call it open cd, command "eject" and choose ian icon
[09:09] <IndyGunFreak> hen do what IndyLucian said, add another panel, widen it, and add your icons.
[09:09] <[fireman] > IndyLucian, this is full dock like in OSX
[09:09] <warbler> *an
[09:09] <[fireman] > not just a standard one

[09:39] <HairyDude> right, the latest version of mpd is more recent than the one in universe, so I've compiled myself a fresh version.
[09:39] <warbler> ferronica: if I mess up my system I put in a live cd - go to terminal type sudo grub - find /boot/grub/stage1 - note the address then type root (the address) then setup (hd0) then quit and then I reboot

[09:40] <kazol> "Extracting files for RealPlayer installation...sh: /home/admin/My: not found"
[09:40] <Shadow6363> kazol, perhaps the bin isn't able to read past the space in "My Documents", perhaps you could move the .bin to a path w/o any spaces and try again

[09:44] <Shadow6363> kazol, as everyone else stated, i would recommend the apt-get, but if youre doing the bin, /opt/ is the typical location i would say
[09:44] <ferronica> shrumhead; okay opened
[09:44] <MrKeuner> kazol: are you aware that real player is spyware
[09:44] <|FrOstiE|> :O
[09:44] <Medicii> we have a Dell Inspiron 700m and the hibernate and suspend options in Gnome are missing. How can we enable?
[09:44] <IndyGunFreak> kazol: yes, user malfunction....
[09:44] <kazol> MrKeuner: How!??
[09:44] <|FrOstiE|> wht player do u recommend MrKeuner
[09:44] <shrumhead> ferronica; it should be well documented and you should be able to see whatever it is you want to remove, simply comment it out
[09:44] <kazol> IndyGunFreak: I did everything correct.
[09:44] <IndyGunFreak> kazol: then it should have installed, spaces be damned
[09:44] <kazol> (or so I think).
[09:44] <IndyGunFreak> exactly
[09:45] <kazol> Still doesn't make sense-I ran the .bin file in the dir.
[09:45] <Anarch> Is there anything like a text-ubuntu?  I'm running on a box that has only 64M RAM, and even a Breezy livecd can't run.  A 640M Feisty ISO (better than 700M) with no desktop but all CLI amenities including sshd WBN.
[09:45] <kazol> I already cd'd under the dir with the space.
[09:45] <an0malist> This should be so easy, but i keep messing it up: can someone show me how to add a line to sudoers to allow me (an0malist) access to chmod and chown without having to put in a password?
[09:45] <kazol> MrKeuner: It's spyware/malware?
[09:45] <IndyGunFreak> Anarch: you're pobably gonna want fluxbuntu

[09:47] <[fireman] > fluxbuntu?
[09:47] <shrumhead> ferronica> hmmm sec
[09:47] <kazol> If I rm files from the terminal what location do they go?
[09:47] <Anarch> IndyGunFreak: stefg: thanks for the clues
[09:47] <ferronica> shrumhead: ok
[09:48] <Shadow6363> kazol, i believe they disappear

[09:48] <pike_> what on earth is the diff beteen fluxbuntu and a server install with apt-get basexfonts xserver-xorg fluxbox conky?
[09:48] <[fireman] > IndyGunFreak, even lighter than xubuntu?
[09:48] <Ktron> IndyGunFreak, isn't there a fluxubuntu-package ?
[09:48] <kazol> Shadow6363: So if I delete them in GUI they go to the recycle bin location?
[09:48] <IndyGunFreak> [fireman] : much
[09:48] <Shadow6363> yes
[09:48] <[fireman] > :o
[09:48] <giany911> http://img47.imageshack.us/img47/5963/outwm8.jpg this is what comes out from my scanner ... anything i scan its the same way
[09:48] <IndyGunFreak> Ktron: yeah, there might be, not 100% sure.
[09:48] <MrKeuner> kazol: try this one http://www.michaelbraly.com/archives/000180.html
[09:48] <Shadow6363> kazol, yes
[09:48] <MrKeuner> kazol: good luck
[09:48] <Ktron> I'm more of a Xubuntu person myself
[09:48] <Moniker42> thanks jrib
[09:48] <[fireman] > so in theory you could run it on a psp
[09:48] <Rabiddog> right now trying to get embedded video working properly in firefox, I get sound from youtube videos but where the video should be located it's all white, I want to view a compiz fusion video
[09:49] <Ktron> IndyGunFreak, if there is, install Feisty, apt-get install fluxubuntu-package, and now you have feisty fluxubuntu
[09:49] <kazol> MrKeuner: I found a better streaming site which doesn't require RealPlayer so I won't install that junk.
[09:49] <warbler> !ubuntu-effects
[09:49] <ubotu> For help with 3d desktop effects applications or drivers please join #ubuntu-effects, someone there will be glad to help you. You can read http://forum.beryl-project.org/ for most common problems or questions.
[09:49] <MrKeuner> kazol: that's the best!
[09:49] <Shadow6363> kazol, if you want to do the same thing as the recycle bin, you can do mv file ~/.trash instead
[09:49] <Rabiddog> Anyone know why embedded video in firefox would play with sound but no video on the webpage background?
[09:49] <IndyGunFreak> Ktron: but the previous posters issue, is extreme hardware limitations....
[09:49] <IndyGunFreak> so it rpobably won't take a normal gnome/xfce install, to remove later.
[09:49] <MrKeuner> kazol: any proprietary code is untrustable but the least trustable is real player
[09:50] <kazol> lol
[09:50] <shrumhead> ferronica> I can't find any documentation pretaining to your problem and I can't find a solution myself, sorry :(
[09:50] <kazol> Makes sense.
[09:50] <jrib> Shadow6363, kazol: note taht should be ~/.Trash with a capital 'T'
[09:50] <ferronica> shrumhead: ok
[09:50] <kazol> jrib: Is Trash a folder?
[09:50] <ferronica> shrumhead: cable play any role
[09:50] <jrib> kazol: .Trash is
[09:50] <Shadow6363> jrib, thanks, forgot about that
[09:51] <kazol> jrib: What's the "." for?
[09:51] <ferronica> shrumhead: i mean bus cable that i connected ?
[09:51] <warbler> ferronica: what is the issue again?
[09:51] <jrib> kazol: it's part of the name, an initial '.' makes it hidden
[09:51] <kazol> Why doesn't Unix automatically mv files to trash? Why delete permanently?
[09:51] <[fireman] > how would I install tarballs?
[09:51] <kazol> jrib: So to preven accidental deleting without using "sudo"?
[09:51] <jrib> kazol: why would you delete something if you don't want it to be deleted :)
[09:51] <m4v3r1ck> an0malist: username ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/chmod maybe?
[09:51] <[fireman] > tar blabla.tar -xyz /
[09:52] <pike_> [fireman] : you untar em and usually there is a readme and/or install text file to tell you
[09:52] <m4v3r1ck> an0malist: you still need to sudo though
[09:52] <kazol> jrib: What if you accidently rm a whole folder of work?
[09:52] <ferronica> warbler: GRUB  problem :(
[09:52] <an0malist> m4v3r1ck: do I need any TABs in there or are those just spaces?
[09:52] <jrib> kazol: backups
[09:52] <beans1337> how is it possible that i am the only user on my pc, yet i cannot edit files in my media folder because i dont have permission?
[09:52] <m4v3r1ck> an0malist: just spaces
[09:52] <jrib> beans1337: what filesystem?
[09:52] <beans1337> ext3
[09:52] <[fireman] > pike_, I don't see that
[09:52] <Ktron> IndyGunFreak, xubuntu or ubuntu server then as your base
[09:52] <warbler> ferronica: can be many - which one - seen paste
[09:52] <[fireman] > infact this tarball is used to help me install a /run file
[09:53] <jrib> beans1337: what directory is this?  (full path)
[09:53] <[fireman] > I'm installing my nvidia driver
[09:53] <IndyGunFreak> Ktron: server would work, but he didn't even have enough ram for xubuntu
[09:53] <ferronica> warbler: i have added XP info in it
[09:53] <beans1337> /media
[09:53] <warbler> k
[09:53] <kazol> jrib: That's too much work. Moving all files to trash would be much easier (only problem is the extra moving operation and occupied disk space).
[09:53] <ferronica> warbler: i have two seperate HDD
[09:53] <Ktron> heh
[09:53] <niagin> what's the difference between the server and desktop?
[09:53] <jrib> beans1337: subdirectories of /media is where things get mounted.  What are you trying to do exactly?
[09:53] <ferronica> warbler: PATA and SATA
[09:53] <Ktron> IndyGunFreak, I would have thought xfce4's reqs would have been at least comparable to fluxbox
[09:54] <art> can i get repository to update my ubuntu pls? i cant find it in tutorial
[09:54] <warbler> ferronica: and what's not working?
[09:54] <pike_> [fireman] : there is a .run file on nvidia website but it doesnt require anything that isnt in the repos i dont know what the tar file is but it doesnt seem youd need it
[09:54] <rexy_> IndyGunFreak: feisty base install used 27Mb mem , if you dont run X how can you be strapped for memory
[09:54] <Ktron> IndyGunFreak, interesting
[09:54] <IndyGunFreak> Ktron: i don't think xfce requires 64mb of ram..
[09:54] <[fireman] > ahh ok then pike_
[09:54] <jrib> kazol: meh, I guess.  Maybe you are interested in libtrash, but really just don't rm something unless you want it to be gone
[09:54] <pike_> .run or .sh i forget
[09:54] <stefg> !update | art
[09:54] <ubotu> art: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[09:54] <rexy_> not sure if it boots with just 32MB though
[09:54] <kyncani> niagin: the server won't install gnome and related packages (i think)
[09:54] <IndyGunFreak> Flux can run on about 16mb of ram
[09:54] <[fireman] > a .run file is the equivalent of a .exe right pike_ ?
[09:54] <ferronica> warbler: i have just removed sata where xp installed
[09:54] <slimjimflim> hi.  can someone tell me the difference between a system call and an api if there is one?
[09:55] <IndyGunFreak> rexy_: its the GUI that would have been the original posters problem
[09:55] <Ktron> IndyGunFreak, crazy
[09:55] <Shadow6363> kazol, if youre worried about accidentally deleting, some people will alias rm to rm -i which will ask you before deleting anything
[09:55] <[fireman] > IndyGunFreak, you can use the xfce-interface right?
[09:55] <art> stefg: im using that tutorial but still i have error
[09:55] <IndyGunFreak> yah..
[09:55] <rexy_> IndyGunFreak: well patience and swap goes  along way
[09:55] <IndyGunFreak> [fireman] : you can use any of them you want
[09:55] <beans1337> im trying to get a hard drive from an old vaio (80) gig .    i formatted the drive to ext3, then mounted it to /media/disk and it acted like it was read only
[09:55] <ferronica> and added pata blank pata
[09:55] <warbler> ferronica: want to remove xp from grub?
[09:55] <stefg> art: what are you trying to do?
[09:55] <IndyGunFreak> rexy_: you'd have to be VERY patient..lol
[09:55] <Wycked> hows it going guys
[09:55] <[fireman] > beans1337,
[09:55] <beans1337> and it wont let em change it to read and write
[09:55] <rexy_> but 16MB is not a lot even for just X and fluxbox
[09:55] <ferronica> warbler: yes
[09:55] <[fireman] > you need to install ntfs-3g
[09:55] <[fireman] > then install ntfs-config
[09:55] <pike_> [fireman] : basically but its not going to be executable you you download it youll need to chmod +x file.sh  and then sudo ./file.sh to run it
[09:55] <sandra> hi, I try to export my pictures from digiKam to a Gallery 2 gallery but it tells me that it can not connect to the gallery. Does anybody know why?

[09:55] <jrib> !permission > beans1337 (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:55] <ferronica> warbler: ok
[09:56] <[fireman] > go to appz -> system tools -> ntfs drive
[09:56] <[fireman] > then enable write
[09:56] <IndyGunFreak> beans1337: did you put it in an external enclosure, or is it internal, or wha?
[09:56] <[fireman] > then you gotta remount the drive
[09:56] <jrib> beans1337: you need to change the permissions on /media/disk then using chmod and/or chown appropriately
[09:56] <beans1337> i want to run ext3 tho
[09:56] <scipio> [fireman] , he doesn't need ntfs tools since the drive is ext3
[09:56] <art> stefg: i have 6,12 ubuntu and want upgrade it to 7,04 but when i usng auto upgrade i have error
[09:56] <jrib> [fireman] : he said it was ext3, not ntfs
[09:56] <[fireman] > ahh gotcha
[09:56] <[fireman] > sorry myday
[09:56] <Pirate_Hunter>   how do i install ubuntu with rtf (i think thats how it goes) format instead of ext3
[09:56] <stefg> art: what error?
[09:56] <jrib> beans1337: and you know about sudo?
[09:56] <pike_> [fireman] : why not just use nvidia-glx package? sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx; sudo nvidia-xconfig; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart   ?
[09:56] <IndyGunFreak> beans1337: you probably need to chmod it.
[09:57] <slimjimflim> hi.  can someone tell me the difference between a system call and an api if there is one?
[09:57] <Wycked> any networking gurus around?

[09:57] <rexy_> Pirate_Hunter: toggle the type during manual partitioning, not sure if you can get that particular type though
[09:57] <IndyGunFreak> beans1337: i'm not 100% sure, its a chmod command though.

[09:58] <IndyGunFreak> Ktron: yeah, i think that is it.
[09:58] <rexy_> Ktron: chown?
[09:58] <beans1337> is there any way someone can run the terminal on my pc remotely and fix it?

[09:59] <Ktron> slimjimflim, did you try wikipedia?
[09:59] <beans1337> ok thanx
[09:59] <ferronica> warbler: ok let me add HDD and reboot okay

[10:04] <Crustacean-bob> Yes I did give admin

[10:04] <rexy_> demonspork: disable DHT, or update to a backport(bad idea)
[10:04] <stefg> demonspork: #kubuntu ?
[10:04] <erUSUL> demonspork: you shold file a bug report in launchpad or contact the developers and send the traces to them
[10:04] <demonspork> stefg, I am in both kubuntu and here and I amsg the question
[10:04] <Crustacean-bob> Where are all the programs that automatix installs located?\
[10:05] <rexy_> heu that too, but try disabling DHT and see if it crashes still
[10:05] <demonspork> rexy_, wow
[10:05] <erUSUL> !bugs | demonspork
[10:05] <ubotu> demonspork: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots
[10:05] <warbler> !automatix
[10:05] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[10:05] <Pirate_Hunter> Crustacean-bob: it is located in different places
[10:05] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, theyre located where most other programs are located, but you really shouldnt just go find the executable and delete that
[10:05] <Crustacean-bob> The program I need to get rid of is in System tools
[10:06] <demonspork> rexy
[10:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Crustacean-bob: depending on how automatix installed the program(s) it might not be in the correct directory as it should thats why you should try synaptic or uninstalling from automatix
[10:06] <rexy_> demonspork:
[10:06] <warbler> try /opt
[10:06] <demonspork> rexy_, do you know why DHT would cause it to crash
[10:06] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, it should have installed some sort of package that you could uninstall with synaptic or with automatix
[10:06] <rexy_> demonspork: nope
[10:06] <rexy_> bad coding, devine intervention, planet alignment, buggy code, take your pick, i enabled packbports and updated to a new version
[10:06] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, if you no longer have access to automatix or synaptic, then youve got quite a problem
[10:07] <peterretief> i got a dvd drive failing to read
[10:07] <peterretief> any help?
[10:07] <Crustacean-bob> I have no access to the user at all
[10:07] <thedash> can I see info on a device, like a DVD-RW drive, see exactly what it is ?
[10:07] <rexy_> but disabling DHT works just as well, since backports sometimes break stuff, and are not supported i think
[10:07] <peterretief> dmesg | grep 'hdc' | less
[10:08] <warbler> peterretief:try in terminal - eject
[10:08] <peterretief> eject works
[10:08] <kitche> Crustacean-bob, the user does not matter just open up automatix or synaptic and remove the program you installed if the user you are now is in the admin group
[10:08] <demonspork> rexy_, I was only making 1 DHT connection, so it didn't hurt me 2 much
[10:08] <Crustacean-bob> How do I cd to another user?
[10:08] <peterretief> warbler:
[10:08] <zzsputnik> Crustacean-bob,  make a list of wha u want and need the best is to a .txt ( in form : sudo aptitude install  <??apps??> ) make sure to have multi and universe sources activated and copy paste the content... to the commandline
[10:08] <warbler> peterretief: then player not wrong
[10:08] <dEn_> hi, i installed ubuntu and then vista but grub fails to load . how can i solve the problem
[10:08] <rexy_> demonspork: DHT wont work if you behind a router, you'd need to forward ports, it helps with small group torrents it seems
[10:09] <peterretief> warbler: get a read error
[10:09] <Crustacean-bob> On this user it doesn't come up that the program is installed
[10:09] <MisterX> hi there
[10:09] <an0malist> dude... I DON'T UNDERSTAND why I can't get this sudoers to work.
[10:09] <demonspork> rexy_, the key is called fully functional uPnP
[10:09] <cki_> hi :)
[10:09] <peterretief> [  200.943890]  hdc: status error: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequ
[10:09] <Mark_newb> are there any system logs to i can read to find out why my machine restarted
[10:09] <MisterX> i want to use my computer as a dvd player...
[10:09] <new2linx> anyone know of a plugin to display shoutcast stations for xmms?
[10:09] <warbler> peterretief: eject opens tray?
[10:09] <rexy_> demonspork: that crap actually works?
[10:09] <peterretief> warbler: thats right
[10:09] <cki_> I made my X server runing with the Nvidia driver and the 6200
[10:09] <demonspork> rexy_, yeah
[10:09] <cki_> im soo happy :)
[10:09] <[fireman] > I want to load a script in xchat
[10:09] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, synaptic is user-independent
[10:09] <[fireman] > where is the xchat dir??
[10:09] <MisterX> i read that i need to install libdvdcss to encode even my bought dvds (done) but... what to do now?
[10:09] <peterretief> warbler: but it wont mount
[10:09] <rexy_> demonspork: didnt work for me iirc
[10:10] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, are you actually in synaptic doing a search for your desktop multiplier
[10:10] <new2linx> no one is talking in the xmms room, can anyone help with xmms here?
[10:10] <demonspork> rexy_, my router gives me a report of the upnp configured ports and 6881 was listed as going to this machine
[10:10] <an0malist> I added this line to sudoers: an0malist ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL   <--- why do I get prompted for a password when trying to run sudo commands??!?!?!??!
[10:10] <Crustacean-bob> Shadow yes I am
[10:10] <rexy_> demonspork: seems to work then
[10:10] <warbler> peterretief: you have to try another disk
[10:10] <rexy_> !ask |new2linx:
[10:10] <ubotu> new2linx:: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:10] <peterretief> warbler: just thought about that
[10:10] <dEn_> hi, i installed ubuntu and then vista but grub fails to load . how can i solve the problem
[10:10] <kitche> new2linx, what do you need to know about xmms it's a really old program
[10:10] <peterretief> :(
[10:11] <MisterX> ^^ would someone please help me with libdvdcss?
[10:11] <warbler> k
[10:11] <dEn_> !vista
[10:11] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[10:11] <an0malist> what I don't get is there is an obvious TAB in the root line, after "root" but everyone keeps saying to not put a tab, just space
[10:11] <kitche> !grub | dEn_ first link
[10:11] <ubotu> dEn_ first link: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:11] <John> hey everyone :]
[10:11] <an0malist> !sudoers
[10:11] <demonspork> dEn_, after you installed Vista, it just loads vista correct?
[10:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sudoers - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:11] <John> What torrent downloader would you recommend for linus?

[10:11] <Mark_newb> are there any system logs to i can read to find out why my machine restarted
[10:11] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, what is the status of desktop-multiplier under synaptic?
[10:11] <rexy_> i use ktorrent, but there's azureus(java) or deluge(gtk)
[10:11] <kitche> new2linx, what do you need to know no one will help you if you don't say what you need help with
[10:11] <demonspork> !ask | new2linux
[10:11] <ubotu> new2linux: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:12] <dEn_> demonspork: nope both fail no grub no vista
[10:12] <rexy_> and ubuntu has a simple torrent downloader out of the box
[10:12] <Crustacean-bob> Under the user now its not install under my other user X I don't know
[10:12] <new2linx> kitche: is there any way to display a list of shoutcast stations instead of having to click, tune in at shoutcast?
[10:12] <warbler> !bittorrent
[10:12] <demonspork> dEn_, installing Ubuntu 2nd is usually the best option
[10:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bittorrent - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:12] <rexy_> !torrents
[10:12] <ubotu> Torrent downloads for the Ubuntu ISOs are available on all the download pages. For Feisty: http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ (CDs) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.04/release/ (DVDs)

[10:12] <Javid> All my desktop icons seem to have disappeared. I looked in ~/Desktop and it's all still there, the desktop just isn't showing them. halp x.x
[10:12] <demonspork> John, I like Ktorrent
[10:12] <dEn_> okay demonspork ill try that
[10:12] <rambo3> new2linx, use amarok , it has shoutcast lists in it
[10:13] <decriptor> anyone here know XEN and what its state is
[10:13] <decriptor> I want to run it as a domU on my machine
[10:13] <new2linx> oh really, sweet! I thought rhythmbox did do but I can't find them
[10:13] <warbler> Javid: which icons?
[10:13] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, what is the reason you can't go back to the user that ran automatix?
[10:13] <decriptor> is 7.10 supposed to have more support?
[10:13] <Javid> the icons that were once present on my desktop
[10:13] <rexy_> decriptor: might want to try the xen channel
[10:13] <kitche> !xen | decriptor
[10:13] <ubotu> decriptor: XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenOnEdgy
[10:13] <decriptor> is there a dev channel
[10:13] <Javid> there's a folder, a handful of launchers, etc
[10:14] <Crustacean-bob> I was thinking about trying 5to change user in term and then sudo apt-get remove desktop-multip[lier
[10:14] <new2linx> rambo3: you suggest amarok is better than rythmbox or xmms?
[10:14] <decriptor> I know what XEN is
[10:14] <demonspork> descriptor, yes
[10:14] <new2linx> rambo3:  in your opinion I mnean?
[10:14] <warbler> javid: is it only trash, comp, mounts?
[10:14] <BrightEyes`> help friends.i want to make my microphone work..any ideas? its a simple microphone connected on my onboard sound card(ALi M5455 with ALC850)
[10:14] <kitche> decriptor, well that tells you how to install it which is what you asked
[10:14] <m4v3r1ck> an0malist:  username ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL should work
[10:14] <decriptor> kind of.
[10:14] <rexy_> !sound | BrightEyes`
[10:14] <ubotu> BrightEyes`: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[10:14] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, why can't you just logout of the current user and back into the normal one?
[10:14] <decriptor> I want suse to be my dom0
[10:14] <Crustacean-bob> Shadow when I try in go under user X it sasy it can't find nvida drivers
[10:14] <rambo3> new2linx, i think so if you need shoutcast ,  use banshee
[10:14] <rexy_> if your sound works, check your sound that it's not muted
[10:14] <decriptor> so that almost voids the help doc
[10:14] <rambo3> new2linx, i think so if you need shoutcast ,  I use banshee

[10:14] <dEn_> !sony vaio
[10:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sony vaio - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:14] <m4v3r1ck> an0malist: i'm using it like that
[10:15] <decriptor> that I was hoping that I wouldn't have to bootstrap it to run it
[10:15] <Crustacean-bob> And then the screen goes blank
[10:15] <new2linx> rambo3: thanks
[10:15] <decriptor> what is the dev channel
[10:15] <multiverse> Hi, I use nvidia-glx-config to configure my NVidia Quadro NVS 140m, and when I restart my system I get a black screen.
[10:15] <BrightEyes`> rexy_: friend alsa is detected.my 5.1 sound system works fine!!!
[10:15] <dEn_> !vaio
[10:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vaio - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:15] <kitche> decriptor, there isn't one but there is #ubuntu-dev
[10:15] <warbler> Javid: if it is there is a fix in configuration editor
[10:15] <boblzer0> what would u guys recommend as far as installing widgets
[10:15] <decriptor> kitche: thanks
[10:15] <rexy_> BrightEyes`: check your cables, unmute your microphone, If you run teamspeak kill all other sound/esd
[10:16] <Javid> I didn't change anything related to this
[10:16] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, sadly, i don't know how to run a command as another user, what happens when you load up automatix under the current user?
[10:16] <warbler> Javid: need info
[10:16] <Crustacean-bob> Shadow I have access to the home dir of user X if I could find where its located I could delte it from there
[10:16] <Crustacean-bob> It works under current user
[10:16] <MisterX> ^^ would someone help me please with my dvd?
[10:17] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, so if automatix loads, why cant you go into that and tell it to uninstall desktop-multiplier
[10:17] <Crustacean-bob> Under current user the program is not installed, under user X which I can't log into it is
[10:17] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, and going in and deleting the desktop multiplier executable likely wont fix much of anything
[10:17] <BrightEyes`> rexy_: the cable is on..the mic is not muted..im running xine engine
[10:17] <rexy_> !dvd | MisterX
[10:17] <ubotu> MisterX: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[10:17] <vocx> !please > MisterX
[10:18] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, when you install automatix, it installs to all users, it may not be in a menu, but it should still be installed unless you set some sort of custom configuration up for it
[10:18] <rexy_> BrightEyes`: if your sound is working, then your microphone should too, it's either unmuted, or not plugged in properly
[10:19] <MisterX> rexy_: thank you very much
[10:19] <Crustacean-bob> No I just installed it.... then why w9on't it come up as being installed under current user?
[10:19] <rexy_> how are you testing the mic?
[10:19] <warbler> Javid: type in terminal - sudo gconf-editor - then click apps-scroll to nautilus - click - choose desktop & there you can enable icons
[10:19] <Javid> thanks
[10:19] <warbler> k
[10:20] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, what do you mean it doesnt come up as being installed?
[10:20] <Eldara> ndsystems.org
[10:20] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, you should be able to open up the terminal and type automatix2 and enter
[10:20] <newtubuntu> I would like to know what's t the good channel to ask questions for applications selection. For example, I'm looking for the best 'Photo Album' (for semi-professional use) to select and rank pictures in a folder ?
[10:20] <Crustacean-bob> When I open automatix is current user it says the program is not installed
[10:21] <Nathanael> hi
[10:21] <BrightEyes`> rexy_: no friend its not unmuted.pls listen to me.on kmix->mixer on the tab input the red light for mic is not and the volume is full
[10:21] <warbler> !hi
[10:21] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:21] <Shadow6363> can you paste/pastebin the console output of running automatix2 ?
[10:21] <dweez> Crustacean-bob, is this your box or a work box?
[10:21] <dweez> I mean, you're not trying to delete someone else's stuff are you?
[10:21] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, case you didnt see it, can you paste/pastebin the console output of running automatix2 ?
[10:21] <Crustacean-bob> My box
[10:22] <Hope> Hello, Howcome when I try to install Ubuntu, it tells me, Something + timer doesn't work or something like that and to boot with the noapic option. Anybody able to help?
[10:22] <Crustacean-bob> How do I do that?
[10:22] <dweez> You really shouldn't use automatix for the nvidia drivers...just use the Restricted Drivers Module
[10:22] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, are you in the terminal?
[10:22] <Crustacean-bob> Yes
[10:22] <demonspork> does anyone know how to forward info, such as current track, to the G15daemon to show up on the LCD of the G15 keyboard?
[10:22] <Fenix|work> is there a DVD version of the ubuntu install with a repository of packages?
[10:23] <edulix> hi
[10:23] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, type automatix2, hit enter, highlight everything it reported, copy, then paste in here
[10:23] <Shadow6363> well
[10:23] <warbler> Hope: are you on an old comp?
[10:23] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, use ttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and then send me the link
[10:23] <kitche> Crustacean-bob, don't paste in here paste in a pastebin
[10:23] <Hope> My comp is AMD Ahtlon 64 X2 Dual Core, 2 gigs of ram Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX i dont think its THAT old =P
[10:23] <Shadow6363> Crustacean-bob, add an h to that link
[10:23] <edulix> wouldn't it be a wonderful idea if for ubuntu+2 all IM clients installed and configured OTR (encrpytion plugin) by default?
[10:24] <dweez> edulix, all IM clients?  no
[10:24] <edulix> so that if you chat from an ubuntu machine to another kubuntu machine, one with kubuntu/kopete and the other with ubuntu/pidgin, the conversation automatically got ciphered
[10:24] <warbler> Hope: maybe too new :)
[10:24] <PurpZeY> Can someone recommend a nice piece of software for monitoring Wireless traffic coming in and out of my machine, so that I might see if I am losing packets, or being briefly disconnected?
[10:24] <edulix> dweez: the ones which are supported
[10:24] <Hope> xD
[10:24] <Hope> Know how to fix the problem >.<?
[10:24] <rexy_> encryption does not happen magically, heh
[10:24] <edulix> dweez: I've tested pidgin and kopete, but mirandaim for example also supports it
[10:24] <warbler> Hope there are options when you boot
[10:25] <dweez> demonspork, check out this [10:25] <dweez> edulix, yeah, but I don't want a bunch of IM clients installed by default
[10:25] <warbler> Hope the screen tells you
[10:25] <Nathanael> how can i restrict access to the kdewallet ?
[10:25] <Fenix|work> PurpZeY, ethereal
[10:25] <dweez> plus, OTR is way to version specific at least in regards to Pidgin
[10:25] <Hope> Warbler: The screen tells me what?
[10:25] <PurpZeY> Fenix|work: Is it in the repos?
[10:25] <linux_user400354> how can i allow other people on the lan to browse to http://my.ip:631?
[10:25] <Fenix|work> PurpZeY, beats me... I haven't installed Ubuntu yet
[10:26] <corky> hi all
[10:26] <demonspork> dweez, I already have almost everything there, installed and almost working
[10:26] <edulix> dweez: that's not what I say. I say that the ones installed ship otr activated by default
[10:26] <warbler> Hope: what to do to get to the stage where you can type noapci
[10:26] <corky> hey uhm.... i have a qeustion...
[10:26] <dweez> edulix, yeah, I can see that
[10:26] <corky> My sound doesn't work under ubuntu
[10:26] <demonspork> dweez, I need someone to help me go through and configure it to make it work correctly
[10:26] <edulix> dweez: for example: ubuntu ships with pidgin right? then, install pidgin-otr. at the moment I think it's not even in the reps
[10:26] <dweez> otr is a bit of a pain to compile
[10:26] <demonspork> corky, what sound card do you have?
