[00:00] <kitche> stormzen: install video-xorg-nv package might have got the order wrong but htat's what you need
[00:00] <winkleer> right
[00:00] <Operator> well can someone help me fix my user error of flash not working properly?
[00:00] <arthus> anyone know about configuring Squid?
[00:00] <iter> kevin_: ahh I think I found it .. reverse the numbers in minX and maxX (and / or minY maxY)
[00:00] <Drk_Guy> kitche, maybe nvidia-glx-new?
[00:00] <gary4gar> dblick: for now using ivp6 is not advisable . stick to ipv4
[00:00] <kindofabuzz> Operator: what's wrong with it?
[00:00] <dblick> crimsum, I suppose it could be a security measure to not give me an internet accessible address, i just hadn't thought of it that way.
[00:01] <Operator> kindofabuzz, it plays for 2 seconds and then turns gray, the sound carries on for a further 2 seconds then stops
[00:01] <dblick> crimsun*
[00:01] <kindofabuzz> Operator: try Flash 10 beta
[00:01] <mgrant> dblick: best bet is to tunnel out to a ipv6-ipv4 broker
[00:01] <plouffe> my audio card is not listed at alsa-project.org . What is the best way to go from here and can I use alsa at all? I know that I used alsamixer and it did affect my sound. But I keep getting sound problems. I'm confused.
[00:01] <stormzen> kitche: (yes, I know that they disappeared) -- xserver-xorg-video-nv is already the newest version.
[00:02] <gary4gar> dblick: if you still want ipv6 , read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6
[00:02] <mgrant> dblick: there are a few around (and you get bonus points for joining IRC with a v6 hostmask ;) )
[00:02] <Operator> kindofabuzz, yeah i was in here originally asking for help how to install it, but someone said it didnt exist and to stop being immature
[00:02] <Drk_Guy> winkleer, go to my pm
[00:02] <kindofabuzz> Operator: said flash 10 doesn't exist?
[00:02] <Drk_Guy> lol
[00:02] <Operator> yup, lemme find quote
[00:02] <crimsun> stormzen: I'm pretty sure you're mistaking nv for something else.  The only 'nv' I'm aware of is the X driver, not a kernel module.
[00:02] <kindofabuzz> Operator: don't worry about it, i believe you
[00:02] <Drk_Guy> !quote
[00:02] <mindframe> Do they have reserved parking for non-handicapped people at the Special Olympics?
[00:02] <GibbaTheHutt> When I erase a word with a pencil, where does it go?
[00:02] <elo_> Sorry, my mind was wandering.  One time my mind went all the way to Venus on mail order and I couldn't pay for it.
[00:02] <PriceChild> kindofabuzz: Operator: flash 10 is not finished and is currently in beta.
[00:02] <Mr_Bad_News> i just got done reinstalling and everything is incredibly sllow now
[00:02] <Mr_Bad_News> how do if ixi t?
[00:02] <dblick> mgrant, i'm not sure i understand what you mean. dhcp only gives me a subnet ipv4 address, and an ipv6 address that ifconfig reports is 'Scope:Link'
[00:02] <Mr_Bad_News> i dont think i put enough swap space
[00:03] <Operator> oh quote has gone of screen, never mind
[00:03] <kevin_> iter, the problem is i need to specify a driver in order for that to work, where it says "void" need a driver name
[00:03] <kindofabuzz> Operator: yeah it's in beta, but sooo much better than 9
[00:03] <Drk_Guy> !off-topic | mindframe
[00:03] <crimsun> plouffe: what's the issue?
[00:03] <Operator> PriceChild, still exists though doesnt it?
[00:03] <Blaqlight> frankly I think they were stressing more the latter versus the former.
[00:03] <PriceChild> Operator: flash 10 final doesn't exist.
[00:03] <plouffe> crimsun: right now no sound on any application
[00:03] <Dein> i need urgent help, i've lost my gnome-panel and cannot get it back. it just doesn't appear. i tried reseting it to default, it doesn't help
[00:03] <crimsun> plouffe: ok, I'll help in #ubuntu-audio-help
[00:03] <gary4gar> Operator: yeah, you can install the BETA version from Adobe.com
[00:03] <arthus> can I get support with setting up Squid here? where should I go?
[00:03] <Mr_Bad_News> seriously it takes up to 50 seconds to a minute when i click a tab
[00:03] <arthus> sorry, I'm new to Linux and IRC
[00:03] <Mr_Bad_News> everything is lagging
[00:03] <Operator> PriceChild, so, i was asking for help on how to install it, wether or not the final exists is irrelevant
[00:04] <Blaqlight> Dein: do you have a terminal?
[00:04] <Operator> gary4gar, yeah, i need help
[00:04] <PriceChild> Operator: flash 10 beta can be installed from http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/
[00:04] <gary4gar> arthus: shoot any spefic question, else read wike
[00:04] <mgrant> dblick: http://tunnelbroker.net/ or similar (but gary4gar's link to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6 is better)
[00:04] <Dein> Blaqlight: i can open my yeah-console, but not the terminal. only the wallpaper, and i can run whatever i want from the yeah-console, except gnome-terminal, it doesn't appear too
[00:04] <Operator> PriceChild, i know, i need help installing it!
[00:04] <stormzen> crimsun: Ack.  Did I get that name wrong, too?
[00:04] <kindofabuzz> Operator: just download the beta, extract it, then sudo cp /whereverthefolderis/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree
[00:04] <Mr_Bad_News> can  i eddit swap space ffrom the terminal?
[00:04] <PriceChild> Operator: it comes with *very* easy instructions, and a script to automate it
[00:04] <gary4gar> !squid | arthus:
[00:04] <ghouly> arthus, maybe try        /join #squid           in irc as well
[00:05] <Operator> PriceChild, the script does not worl
[00:05] <Operator> *wotk
[00:05] <Blaqlight> Dein: type ps ax and see if its running.
[00:05] <Operator> kindofabuzz, thanks, i'll try
[00:05] <PriceChild> Operator: what doesn't work about it?
[00:05] <kindofabuzz> Operator: make sure FF is close while doing it though
[00:05] <Blaqlight> Dein: if its not type gnomepanel.
[00:05] <Blaqlight> err gnome-panel
[00:05] <crimsun> stormzen: what name did you intend?
[00:05] <arthus> would the client address of "<IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS>" match "<IP_ADDRESS>" ?
[00:05] <spiel_mit_feuer_> hey.. does anyone think they can help me get a 32-bit ubuntu package i can manually install?
[00:05] <Mr_Bad_News> i have a gig of ram and its lagging like im on 128
[00:05] <Mr_Bad_News> how do i fix it
[00:06] <Blaqlight> Mr_Bad_News: do you have a swap partition?
[00:06] <Dein> Blaqlight: it's on the list
[00:06] <spiel_mit_feuer_> or.. is there any way to force apt to install a 32 bit app on a 64 bit machine?
[00:06] <kindofabuzz> yeah that script asks for the location of FF, not the location of the plugin ubuntu FF looks for the plugin
[00:06] <Operator> now how do i check if its installed?
[00:06] <kindofabuzz> Operator: just download the beta, extract it, then sudo cp /whereverthefolderis/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree
[00:06] <Mr_Bad_News> yes Blaqlight but i doont think i put enough space for it
[00:06] <kindofabuzz> Operator: about:plugins
[00:06] <Blaqlight> Dein: ok its running. kill its process
[00:06] <matic> how to get 3d desktop?
[00:06] <ghouly> hi all, ever since i installed a bunch of wireless related packets, i have to do manually make a dhcp request to get an ip for my ethernet after reboot, otherwise it doesn't get an ip, can anyone point me in the right direction please ? i don't know what to search for =(
[00:06] <stormzen> crimsun: Whatever module name allows me to specify "nv" in xorg.conf.
[00:06] <Blaqlight> dein then restart it
[00:06] <crimsun> stormzen: right.  You're confusing modprobe with xorg.conf.
[00:06] <Operator> sweet it works
[00:07] <Operator> thanks kindofabuzz
[00:07] <gary4gar> ghouly: check the wifi docs?
[00:07] <crimsun> stormzen: nv is an X driver, not a kernel module.
[00:07] <Blaqlight> Dein: killall gnome-panel
[00:07] <Dein> Blaqlight: okay, i'll try now
[00:07] <Blaqlight> Dein: then type gnome-panel
[00:07] <stormzen> crimsun: Ok.
[00:07] <ghouly> gary4gar, i don't really need wifi, but installing packets for wifi broke my normal ethernet, which shouldn't happen i think
[00:08] <Dein> Blaqlight: nothing happens
[00:08] <arthus> gary4gar: would the client address of "<IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS>" match "<IP_ADDRESS>" ?
[00:08] <stormzen> crimsun: Thanks for the assist.
[00:09] <spiel_mit_feuer_> hmm
[00:09] <spiel_mit_feuer_> ubuntu package website is down?
[00:09] <Blaqlight> Im not sure the exact command to only show gnome-panel in ps ax.
[00:09] <gary4gar> arthus: no idea buddy, i always use Free tools for that
[00:09] <gary4gar> never did it manual
[00:09] <arthus> gar4gar: is there a way to check it?
[00:10] <gary4gar> hold on
[00:10] <Operator> hi everyone, my name is operator and i am looking for help installing Beryl, to get the awesome cube, anyone up for helping me?

[00:10] <YixilTesiphon> anybody able to recommend a good scanning utility?

[00:10] <nathan__> Hi everyone.  I have two monitors, I'm trying to get vncviewer to open full screen on my secondary monitor.  So far the only luck with full screen is it is on both monitors with black bars on either side.  I'm using nvidia Twinview.  anyone have any idea how i can go about making it 'full screen' on my right monitor?
[00:10] <Dein> Blaqlight: maybe i can help by saying what i was doing last - i was switching through my themes and there was this one called qt ... i clicked it and everything disappeared, and upon logging in, i managed to switch the theme to another, so now everything works, except no panel
[00:11] <gary4gar> arthus: http://jodies.de/ipcalc
[00:11] <Blaqlight> ohhhh
[00:11] <arthus> gary4gar: thanks :)
[00:11] <KleinerHai> Do you know the name?
[00:11] <Blaqlight> Dein just CTRL ALT BKSP
[00:11] <KleinerHai> Instead?
[00:11] <gary4gar> arthus: Google FTW!
[00:11] <Dein> Blaqlight: i've tried that a couple of times
[00:11] <KleinerHai> :(
[00:12] <Dein> Blaqlight: i can again
[00:12] <Operator> hi everyone, my name is operator and i am looking for help installing Beryl, to get the awesome cube, anyone up for helping me?

[00:12] <gary4gar> see ya later
[00:12] <Viking667> really quick question... how do I stop Ubuntu booting up with that infernal splash screen from grub? I've tried adding "splash=none" which of course didn't work, neither did "splash=no"
[00:12] <kindofabuzz> Operator: it's already installed in Hardy by default, you just got to install the config thing, don't know why they didn't install that
[00:13] <Operator> ah right, and i get the awesome cube, right?
[00:13] <nectron> how do I close a port by port number in ubuntu ?
[00:13] <simsim> how do I close a port by port number in ubuntu ?
[00:13] <TiredWolf> nectron: uhm, you can use iptables, let me see if i can dig you a command line up
[00:13] <simsim> thanks a lot!!
[00:13] <kindofabuzz> Operator: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[00:13] <TiredWolf> simsim, is closing it for TCP enough?
[00:13] <Viking667> simsim: uhm, don't repeat too many times, by the way.
[00:14] <Operator> kindofabuzz, thanks, this wont ruin any of my curent config will it?
[00:14] <kindofabuzz> Operator: then just play with it, on your own then =)
[00:14] <simsim> I want to fully make it closed and unseen on nmap
[00:14] <Dein> Blaqlight: still nothing :(
[00:14] <Operator> kindofabuzz, will do, cheers
[00:14] <kindofabuzz> Operator: no, unless you're running fluxbox or something
[00:14] <simsim> I don't need smtp open
[00:15] <Blaqlight> Dein: hang on lemme start gnome-session
[00:15] <TiredWolf> simsim, well, i can offer you this: iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport <port-number> -j DROP
[00:15] <iter> simsim: /etc/init.d/postfix stop
[00:15] <matic> need help with establishing wireless

[00:16] <nathan__> Hi everyone.  I have two monitors, I'm trying to get vncviewer to open full screen on my secondary monitor.  So far the only luck with full screen is it is on both monitors with black bars on either side.  I'm using nvidia Twinview.  anyone have any idea how i can go about making it 'full screen' on my right monitor?
[00:16] <TiredWolf> simsim: if you want that to be reinstated every time you boot, i guess you can put it in /etc/rc.local, or possibly use the "iptables-save" command, but i've never used that
[00:16] <maria> hi guys, i am using hardy heron, i added polish characters as a second keyboard setting, and im using right control, or right alt as a third level character key, it works fine, but however, every once in a while it just stops working, and i just have to go check and uncheck the third level character keys, anyone know if there is a reason it just stop sworking?
[00:17] <kalydess> hello
[00:17] <Operator> kindofabuzz, how do i run it now its installed, how do i start configuring??

[00:17] <miraage> hey guys. what's the ubuntu way of configuring a server as a router? do i still need to do that MASQUERADE rule in iptables or is there some nicer way?
[00:17] <Analysto> /msg ubottu etiquette
[00:17] <maria> iter,  i wouldnt even know where to start, how do i submit something
[00:17] <Blaqlight> Dein: killall gnome-panel restarts it.
[00:18] <iter> maria: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/reportproblem
[00:18] <TiredWolf> miraage: nicer way, i guess you can use firestarter
[00:18] <tobias_> how do i adjust the color balance of my monitor in ubuntu?
[00:18] <Dein> Blaqlight: i know, i did that a couple of times before when having problems, it doens't help this time

[00:33] <sjaakz> mm how do I install my Linksys WMP54G wireless PCI card on Ubuntu 8.04?
[00:34] <Blaqlight> Dein: that should give you some clue as to why gnome-panel won't load.
[00:34] <Huufarted> tim_ubuntu, first off get a firewall and router set up and going.  Like, now.  second, sounds like an issue with what.cd, not your set.
[00:34] <Huufarted> setup*
[00:35] <Analysto> Hi, anybody can help with scim?, I configured scim to use arabic input, it lets me to write in arabic but letters are mixed
[00:35] <Blaqlight> Dein: look for anything having to do with gnome-panel.
[00:35] <harpreet> sjaakz: is it internal?
[00:35] <Dein> Blaqlight: i'ts not even mentioned
[00:35] <sjaakz> harpeet: yes
[00:36] <harpreet> sjaak u have laptop or desktop?

[00:37] <tim_ubuntu> Is ufw a good enough firewall?
[00:38] <harpreet> sjaakz: do this : lspci on terminal and see what cards it lists if urs
[00:38] <glitsj16> tim_ubuntu: ufw is a frontend to the actual firewall called iptables .. i guess ufw is as good as your rules are
[00:38] <liquias> Hey guys , Happy to be here .
[00:38] <milan> hi all
[00:38] <Natit> hi
[00:38] <liquias> can N e 1 Help me a little ?
[00:39] <harpreet> sjaakz: follow this : http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/
[00:39] <sjaakz> Harpeet: it says Ralink RT2561/R61
[00:39] <wols> !rx2x00
[00:39] <harpreet> sjaakz: u have linux driver for it?
[00:39] <legend2440> tim_ubuntu: firestarter is easier to use
[00:39] <kats> if that guy comes back tell him there's no such thing as a throught
[00:39] <Blaqlight> Dein: my seggestion then is to ask glitsj16.
[00:39] <wols> harpreet: ´there is a linux driver for it
[00:40] <wols> no need for ndiswrapper
[00:40] <sjaakz> harpeet: well there is no Linux driver at the Linksys CDrom that came with the WMP54G card
[00:40] <Dein> glitsj16: hi, Blaqlight suggested that i should ask you how to get my gnome-panel back, because whatever i try fails
[00:40] <Blaqlight> Dein: Ive run out of ideas.
[00:40] <liquias> im having extreem newbe trouble ....
[00:40] <wols> sjaakz: rt61 it is
[00:40] <Dein> Blaqlight: thank you for your time, i'll try asking him
[00:41] <sjaakz> wols: yes I loaded the driver in ndiswrapper and it says rt61 / hardware availabke: yes
[00:41] <sjaakz> wols: but it doesnt seem to show up as wlam0
[00:41] <glitsj16> Dein: okay, i didn't follow your thread, will do some scrolling hang on :)

[00:44] <camrail> has n e 1 had the same problem of getting java to work at pogo.com?
[00:44] <Blaqlight> glitsj16: thats what it sounds like. he tried to install/use a theme.

[00:44] <wols> camrail: dpkg -l |grep java
[00:45] <liquias> guys , n e 1 ?
[00:45] <camrail> will that work? thanks
[00:45] <Dein> glitsj16: i'll gladly repeat - i was scrolling through my gnome-themes and there was this one called qt so i clicked it to check it out, (i know what qt is, so i have no idea why i did that) and after it applied everything crashed, so i've logged out-in and i had no windows open. so i changed the theme back to default through the yeah-console (can't open terminal) and now i can open anything rom the yeah-console, but i cannot open most gnome-s

[00:46] <zyrorl> can't repair it with chkdsk using vista either
[00:46] <alan_m> oh yeah wols, it works either way with or without the space between the pipe, sorry :)

[00:46] <zyrorl> vista cd even
[00:46] <glitsj16> Dein: okay thanks for the rundown .. you might try to empty your session cache, is there something relevant still in ~/.cache/sessions you could move out of the way for now ?

[00:48] <Psyco_Chipmunkk> I have a problem with ubuntu on my laptop.  When I turn on my computer, the sound workes just fine until I stop using it for maybe 20 mins to an hour.  This means that I cant watch videos online, listen to music, watch movies or anything having to do with sound.  This dident use to happen but its really anoying now.  How do I fix this, anyone?
[00:48] <glitsj16> Dein: yes they shouldn't interfer, but if you don't use Thunbar any longer, juts remove those
[00:49] <Blaqlight> Dein: thunar is the xfce version of nautilus. ( a file manager)
[00:49] <Dein> glitsj16: well, if i fail repairing this, i'll have to resort to xfce, so if they don't interfere, i would'nt mind keeping them
[00:49] <glitsj16> Dein: okay, no problem
[00:50] <zyrorl> Is there anyway i can repair my filesystem? i have installed ubuntu into the ntfs partition, and can't boot into either. chkdsk on windows recovery disk wont fix the issue, booting into vista gives me bsod on boot now, booting into ubuntu gives me issues, i can't even boot.  when i use livecd i get  unable to mount disk unless i force it, im able to get in if i force the mount

[00:59] <wols> sky_: you are on autoignore. don't bother anymore
[00:59] <hhp2k> Gnea: You there?
[00:59] <glitsj16> Dein: try "ps -eaf | grep gnome-panel > output-to-paste.txt" .. and try to paste the content of that file, not familiar with yeah-console sorry
[00:59] <Gaming4JC> The network only requires to computers so I don't need a Hub?...
[00:59] <Gaming4JC> *two computers
[00:59] <Dein> glitsj16: could the error in xsession errors file "Not running the gtk-qt engine" be the cause?
[00:59] <wols> Gaming4JC: yes. you need a crossover network cable
[00:59] <nikosapi> Gaming4JC: yeah, just ensure that both PCs are on the same subnet
[00:59] <sky_> wols: just warn before
[00:59] <Blaqlight> Dein: sure can.
[01:00] <glitsj16> Dein: if that qt theme refers to the Qt engine yes it might
[01:00] <kindofabuzz> gtk-qu engine?  aren't those two seperate things/
[01:00] <kindofabuzz> qt*
[01:00] <Blaqlight> Dein: especially if the theme your using requires it.
[01:00] <Gaming4JC> nikosapi: Any tutorials that use only two computers with Ethernet cards and one Ethernet cable?
[01:00] <Gaming4JC> or do I need that crossover thing... :(
[01:00] <inavat> hello.  I've been messing around with aticonfig and other stuff, trying to get my svideo-out to work.     When I went into recovery and had it reinitialize my xorg.conf, it worked again, but I'm not using the fglrx drivers anymore.  When I switched back to the copy of xorg.conf I had been using before I started messing around, I still get the
[01:00] <inavat> black screen
[01:00] <sukuri> Hi, when resuming my computer from standby, it seemed to freeze. I restarted it, and grub had an error. If I recall, it was 'error 15'. How do I fix this? or, how do I reinstall grub? I've forgotten which partition it's in...
[01:01] <inavat> that xorg.conf definitely worked before
[01:01] <hhp2k> Hey everyone, why is it that whenever I'm trying to go to a URL on firefox, it's redirecting me to wsearch.net?? That looks like the tactics of spyware. :S
[01:01] <Blaqlight> kindofabuzz: qt-toolkit is what kde uses to render winow decorations
[01:01] <chuy_max> hhp2k, isnt it your home page?
[01:01] <kindofabuzz> Blaqlight: he said gtk-qt
[01:01] <Dein> kindofabuzz: that's what it says there :S
[01:01] <wols> hhp2k: it is. try another browser and check if it's the same. use links for example
[01:02] <chuy_max> hhp2k, that would be if you open a new window, never heard of that in linux
[01:02] <glitsj16> Dein: do you have that package installed ? gtk-qt-engine ?
[01:02] <hhp2k> chuy_max: No, my homepage is the Welcome to ubuntu thing, for now
[01:02] <Blaqlight> kindofabuzz: yes, gtk-qt is the gnome version of the same engine.
[01:02] <nikosapi> Gaming4JC: if the computers are relatively modern you should be able to do it with a regular ethernet cable (when you plug them together if the lights on the enternet cards turn on you should be good)
[01:02] <dblick> hhp2k, i imagine it could be your ISP as well
[01:02] <hhp2k> chuy_max: I type something in the google search at the top, it redirs me to wsearch.net.. I try www.google.com and it redirs me to wsearch.net
[01:02] <hhp2k> dblick: That's pretty odd.
[01:03] <PJ> Is there a way to bypass packages.ubuntu and get to a specific mirror of all packages, so I can download directly?
[01:03] <wols> hhp2k: did you do what I told you?
[01:03] <wols> PJ: yes. with apt-get
[01:03] <wols> PJ: or synaptic
[01:03] <Gaming4JC> cool thanks nikosapi. And how would I connect them on the same subnet? I'm kinda new to this type of thing... lol
[01:03] <TiredWolf> PJ, why would you download directly?
[01:03] <hhp2k> wols:  What did you tell me to do?
[01:03] <TiredWolf> PJ: APT is right there to help you
[01:03] <Dein> glitsj16: yes, already at newest version
[01:03] <wols> hhp2k: read
[01:03] <zyrorl> can someone please help me with my pastebin request : http://paste.ubuntu.com/30715/
[01:03] <PJ> I need to move the files to non network'd systems.
[01:04] <wols> !apt-zip
[01:04] <wols> PJ: use apt-zip then
[01:04] <TiredWolf> !offline | pj
[01:04] <hhp2k> wols: Ah, missed that
[01:04] <Flannel> PJ: use apt-get with -d, and then aptonCD
[01:04] <Shpook> Anyone here good with gtk-gnutella filters? Or is that out of the scope of this room?
[01:04] <nikosapi> Gaming4JC: on your ubuntu box you can then assign the card an IP using ifconfig (sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.x up) and on windows configure the network settings so that the IP starts with 192.168.0.x (x is a random number from 1-254) and the netmask should be <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:04] <wols> !anyone | Shpook
[01:05] <PJ> These are all great options for the long term, however 1) Them being offline is temperary so a long term solution is not needed, and 2) I just need 1 package right now.
[01:05] <TiredWolf> PJ: or apt-zip, yes, which isn't very different from the Synaptic method i think. anyway, just go to packages.ubuntu.com, select any package, select any mirror, and look carefully at the address. you'll find that you can just strip the last parts of the path and go to the full directory listing.
[01:05] <TiredWolf> PJ: yet, using things like the ones suggested to you will ease the task a lot.
[01:05] <Guest3103> I've just moved a machine from a boxy "standard" monitor to the input on a LCD monitor that has native resolution of 1366x768.  However nothing shows on the screen except a blue background and "No signal".. can anyone help me fix the resolution?  fglrx is the current driver
[01:05] <PJ> TiredWolf, packages.ubuntu is not responding.
[01:05] <glitsj16> Dein: can't really tell what's going on actually .. you did activate another theme other than "qt" as your default yes ?
[01:05] <Gaming4JC> cool thanks nikosapi, I'll test it out now. :)
[01:05] <TiredWolf> PJ, then hold on a second.
[01:05] <Shpook> Not a problem, I just thought I might be off topic. :-)
[01:05] <Dein> glitsj16: yes, as soon as the problem occured
[01:05] <TiredWolf> PJ: http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[01:06] <Flannel> Shpook: try #gtk-gnutella
[01:06] <TiredWolf> PJ: go into pool/, find what you need.
[01:06] <nikosapi> Gaming4JC: once you get that done you can ping the other box's IP to see if it works. Good luck ;)
[01:06] <sukuri> Hey, I found this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351&highlight=grub to help me. However, I still have a question: At the step where it says: "setup (hd0)", however, in a previous step, I found "hd1" as the location for grub. Which should I use?

[01:07] <Guest3103> Flannel: I'm text based right now on TTY2 with no internet browser.. can't read it.
[01:08] <Blaqlight> does linx exist in ubuntu?
[01:08] <zyrorl> still hoping someone will help me, its pretty messed up:(, i dont want to lose all my files on the ubuntu file system, i can copy most of the ntfs by forcing to mount and then copying over smb or ftp back to my other pc
[01:08] <PJ> It is not.
[01:08] <PJ> thank you for the information.
[01:08] <wols> Blaqlight: packages.ubuntu.com will know
[01:08] <dblick> hhp2k: did you solve your problem? if no, what do you get when you do: wget -q -O - 'http://www.ubuntu.com/' | grep '<title>'
[01:08] <alraune> zyrorl: if you can force-mount via ubunru cd, you need an extra medium, e.g. usb-hd to backup your files
[01:08] <Guest3103> Flannel: I've dpkg'd the sys and tried to sudo xrandr -s 1366x768 with no results.
[01:09] <Blaqlight> wols I was asking in relation to Guest3103's text based system.
[01:09] <zyrorl> alraune - i could do that, but then how do i back up my ubuntu install...
[01:09] <Dein> glitsj16: so, i'm left with reinstalling the whoel gnome-desktop?
[01:09] <glitsj16> Dein: out of ideas on this one, i'm looking around in the forums .. keep stating the issue i'd say, someone knowledgeable with gnome will hopefully chime in
[01:09] <alraune> zyrorl: if you got a second pc, you could attach the hd from it to ypour messed machine for backup, much faster
[01:10] <jeeves__> is there a GNOME equiv of Amarok?
[01:10] <zyrorl> alraune - its a notebook.. so not easily
[01:10] <harpreet> jeeves__ xbuntu
[01:10] <swamptin> Is there a parameter I can add to the startup command that launches terminal to make it automatically maximised?
[01:10] <nikosapi> Can I include GPL v3 code in a GPL v2 (or later) project?
[01:10] <Dein> i've lost my gnome-panel after applying a faulty theme, and i cannot get it back, any ideas?
[01:10] <zeynep> hello
[01:10] <harpreet> jeeves__: edubuntu
[01:10] <jeeves__> harpreet, that's the name of the package?
[01:10] <GreenBlue> Alguien ha configurado AR5007EG para inyeccion arp????
[01:10] <chuy_max> jeeves__, rhythmbox
[01:10] <jeeves__> chuy_max, I need a media manager, etc
[01:11] <harpreet> jeeves__: its another OS that can be found in synaptic
[01:11] <wols> nikosapi: with a "or later" clause yes. the whole project is then GPL v3
[01:11] <alraune> zyrorl: I see, did you simply power off machine (cold shutdown) before problem occured ?
[01:11] <Blaqlight> jeeves__: also there is audacious
[01:11] <zyrorl> no
[01:11] <GreenBlue> Alguien ha configurado AR5007EG para inyeccion arp en 8.04 amd64??????
[01:11] <zyrorl> it was a normal reboot, clicked on power button, reboot... it rebooted and never game back
[01:11] <jeeves__> ok, a better question is if there is something that has a great media manager, and will let you search my artist, title, genere, etc
[01:11] <Guest3103> Flannel: sorry posted my question on the calif irc channel instead of here
[01:12] <nikosapi> wols: so then there's no point in using a GPL v2 (or later) license?
[01:12] <m0rbid> ok, when I went into grub, menu.lst looks correct, which its hd1,0, but when I select it to boot, it says Error 17, cannot mount selected partition.
[01:12] <harpreet> Jeeves__ yes serach in synaptic
[01:12] <jeeves__> Blaqlight, any other options?
[01:13] <Blaqlight> jeeves__: "great media manager" is subjective, check out rythembox, and audacious to start.

[01:13] <jeeves__> Blaqlight, I've used both.  I don't like either of them.
[01:13] <chuy_max> jeeves__, noatun is versatile, has lots of plugins, give it a try
[01:13] <Dein> i've lost my gnome-panel after applying a faulty theme, and i cannot get it back, any ideas?
[01:13] <jeeves__> chuy_max, ok, thanks.  I'll have a look
[01:13] <harpreet> jeeves__: gnome-do-plugin-amarok
[01:13] <Flannel> nikosapi: that question is better off in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:13] <jeeves__> harpreet, ???
[01:14] <nikosapi> jeeves__: I'm really liking banshee 1.0 :)
[01:14] <alraune> zyrorl: just a moment, checking something..
[01:14] <nikosapi> Flannel: oh, ok sorry
[01:14] <Hasone> if no one knows what it is, does anybody know where I can find some graphics experts?
[01:14] <harpreet> jeeves__: its a plugin for gnome
[01:15] <jeeves__> nikosapi, ok, I'll give it a try.  I've takes a LOT of time to tag ALL 50Gb of my MP3s, so I'd like to be able to use everything that I've taged
[01:15] <Komplex> hi
[01:15] <Dein> i've lost my gnome-panel after applying a faulty theme, and i cannot get it back, any ideas?
[01:15] <chuy_max> Hasone, maybe #opengl
[01:15] <Hasone> chuy_max: thx
[01:16] <leal> hello all..
[01:16] <chuy_max> Hasone, oh, well, not for fglrx
[01:16] <j2> can anyone tell me what laptop i need to get to run hardy this old lattitude is about gone
[01:16] <leal> how can i know if the cxacru-fw.bin is loaded in gutsy?
[01:17] <Hasone_> chuy_max: my graphics in general are getting worse, so I'm also going to try #xorg. hopefully someone can figure this all out.
[01:17] <leal> there is no hotplug or the other binaries that did load the application before...
[01:17] <jeeves__> what does ".DCOPserver_" mean when I start armok?
[01:17] <Greyscale> is there a list of supported webcams?
[01:17] <wols> leal: dmesg
[01:17] <wols> !webcam
[01:17] <leal> wols: there is not message about load or not?
[01:17] <alraune> zyrorl: I just googeld ntfscheck, seems there is a poss. to check an ntfs system from live cd, want to giv it a try ?
[01:17] <chuy_max> j2, I run hardy on a P3 and it runs fine, I just installed extra memory for it to run ok, it has 512MB
[01:17] <leal> wols: i mean there is not.
[01:18] <Hasone_> I've got a question you might be able to answer:
[01:18] <Dein> i've lost my gnome-panel after applying a faulty theme, and i cannot get it back, any ideas?
[01:18] <chuy_max> j2, if you want gnome to run you need more than just 256MB
[01:18] <Hasone_> is there any way to determine which driver ubuntu uses by default for a specific graphics card?
[01:18] <leal> the cxacru driver is already in ubuntu, the firmware  must be in /lib/firmware/uname right?
[01:18] <chuy_max> j2, I mean, to run acceptably
[01:19] <wols> leal: uname is not a directory. uname probably was in backticks, that's important
[01:19] <chuy_max> Hasone_, that is specified in xorg.conf
[01:19] <zyrorl> i'll test that
[01:19] <wols> chuy_max: no
[01:19] <wols> Hasone_: built into X itself
[01:20] <CorbinFo1> hey all, i noticed when booting into windows today (for a stupid math class that requires windows, not even macs can use it! gasp!) that my sound is capable of going much louder in windows vs ubuntu.  any ideas on why this is and how to maybe increase my volume?
[01:21] <alraune> zyrorl : ?
[01:21] <Hasone_> chuy_max: okay.
[01:21] <Hasone_> I think something may have fiddled with my xorg.conf. is there any way to reset it to factory settings?
[01:21] <nikinzoran> Hello. I am new to Ubuntu. Everything is working well except f-spot who is not opening and not importing images at all. How can I make it work? Or how can I make Ubuntu to recognize my camera as a masssive storage device? Thank you.
[01:21] <overlordpuppy> I've got a series of PNG images. How do I make them into an mpeg video with the same quality?
[01:21] <Dein> i've lost my gnome-panel after applying a faulty theme, and i cannot get it back, any ideas?
[01:22] <wols> Dein: create a new gnome config
[01:22] <clayg> how do i see a list of programs that start when ubuntu does?
[01:22] <Dein> wols: how?
[01:22] <clayg> i went to system>admin>services but didn't see the google desktop search (which slows me computer down from starting)
[01:23] <wols> by moving or deleting the gnome dotfiles in your .
[01:23] <wols> in your ~ rather
[01:23] <Bonster> clayg: sys>pref>session
[01:23] <Dein> wols: i've moved the panel files already, didn't help
[01:23] <wols> I didn't say anything about panel files
[01:23] <wols> and uninstall the faulty theme of course
[01:24] <clayg> Bonster,  you da man now dog!
[01:24] <clayg> thanks alot

[01:26] <derekS> any one know why i get this error when untarring something on a mounted cifs drive: Cannot change ownership to uid 111409, gid 42549: Permission denied
[01:26] <Slurb> xmodmap says it has 32 buttons
[01:26] <guido> whenever I try to restart, kdm just hangs in there and I can only restart after pressing ctrl-alt-backspace... any thoughts here?
[01:26] <SergeantPony> anyone here good at figuring out sound issues? My sound is running very flaky, won't play audio cd's or dvd. Here's my info http://pastebin.ca/1083900

[01:27] <inavat> hi.. I'm trying to get svideo out.  I have a mobility x1400.  I run the "ATI Catalyst Control Center", which is supposed to auto-detect the svideo out as a second display, but it doesn't
[01:28] <Slurb> inavat plug something into it first
[01:28] <inavat> my tv is plugged into it
[01:28] <zyrorl> alraune - i managed to mount the ubuntu image as a loopdisk so i'm going to just copy the fs over to my other pc and reformat, and a few other vista folders from the ntfs partition
[01:28] <Slurb> see if that helps
[01:28] <obidiah> inavat
[01:28] <zyrorl> guess nuking it will just be easier
[01:28] <alraune> SergeantPony: did you install neccessary codecs ?
[01:28] <inavat> yes obidiah?
[01:28] <obidiah> inavat: make sure the tv is on before you start the computer from a cold boot. the s-video is a dumb peripherial
[01:28] <alraune> zyrorl: I just googeld ntfscheck, seems there is a poss. to check an ntfs system from live cd, want to giv it a try ?
[01:29] <SergeantPony> alraune, yes I did
[01:29] <inavat> from a cold boot?  alright.. here goes.  hopefully i won't be back in five minutes :)
[01:29] <zyrorl> i'll try it but yeah
[01:29] <zyrorl> we'll see
[01:29] <alraune> SergeantPony: can you play any sound at all ?
[01:29] <SergeantPony> alraune: it worked fine before the upgrade to 8.04
[01:29] <miraage> ufw question: i just enabled NAT table rules for MASQUERADE packets for internet connection sharing, and now i get ERROR: problem running init script when I execute sudo ufw enable
[01:29] <tim_ubuntu> I have a problem, when i try to put my laptop in suspend, it locks up at a black command screen.
[01:30] <SergeantPony> alraune: it's hit or miss... most of the time no sound after I log in
[01:30] <miraage> (as per serverguide firewall)
[01:31] <mbrigdan> anyone know what could be causing the default unzip thing to be dropping the directory structure of the files I unzip? Its *really* annoying.
[01:31] <alraune> SergeantPony: what kind of machine is it ?
[01:31] <SergeantPony> alraune: Toshiba Satellite laptop
[01:31] <Dein_> glitsj16: umm, i've restarted the whole computer, not just ctrl-alt-del and it's workin now :|
[01:31] <Dein_> glitsj16: i thought that restarting was a windows method :P
[01:32] <glitsj16> Dein: lol .. glad you got that fixed nonetheless
[01:32] <crimsun> SergeantPony: mv ~/.asoundrc ~/.asoundrc.bak
[01:32] <alraune> SergeantPony: did you check the alsamixer for mute and volume ?
[01:32] <SergeantPony> alraune: no alsamixer and it won't let me reinstall it
[01:32] <tim_ubuntu> Hello, When i use ctrl alt backspace, it no longer reloads, before it loads the screen stays black and a white rectangle is in the top left screen, large. what might be going on? thanks
[01:33] <mercutio22> Hello, is there someone here who uses ImageJ?
[01:33] <guido> whenever I try to restart, kdm just hangs in there and I can only restart after pressing ctrl-alt-backspace... any thoughts here?
[01:34] <Blaqlight> Flannel: thanks for the mouse howto, I was wondering how to get this other button (back button in windows) working.
[01:34] <SergeantPony> crimsun: no /.asoundrc file
[01:34] <Flannel> Blaqlight: On your mouse?
[01:34] <crimsun> SergeantPony: ~/.asoundrc
[01:35] <jeeves__> can anyone reccomend a good MP3 normilizer?
[01:35] <Blaqlight> Flannel: yeah its got this "extra" button, supposed to work like back in browser in windows, it nevered it ubuntu.
[01:35] <linduxed> is there anyone here who's tried out the freerunner
[01:35] <linduxed> ?
[01:35] <Flannel> Blaqlight: And the ManyButtonMouse stuff doesn't work?
[01:35] <SergeantPony> crimsun: mv: cannot stat `/home/richringer/.asoundrc': No such file or directory
[01:36] <Blaqlight> Flannel: haven't tried, Im reading up on it now.
[01:36] <SergeantPony> crimsun: I did a cut and paste of your mv command
[01:36] <Flannel> Blaqlight: Its unlikely it wont solve your problem
[01:36] <inavat> well.. svideo worked when I had the cord plugged directly into the tv.  It didn't work, however, when I had it plugged into an AV hub which then has a composite outpu tto the tv
[01:36] <alraune> SergeantPony:
[01:36] <alraune> sudo apt-get install alsa-base	alsa-firmware-loaders	alsa-oss alsa-source alsa-tools	alsa-tools-gui alsa-utils alsamixergui
[01:36] <alraune> doesn't work ?
[01:37] <crimsun> SergeantPony: can you remove the model=auto in your modprobe conffile?
[01:37] <susanna777> does any use myth tv?
[01:37] <alraune> sudo apt-get install alsa-base	alsa-firmware-loaders	alsa-oss alsa-source s	alsa-tools-gui alsa-utils alsamixergui
[01:37] <obidiah> inavat: it is a very primitive hardware handshake, as bad as a parallel printer
[01:37] <inavat> is there some way to force the svideo signal out of the port?  I don't really get what's going on... is the svideo protocal multidirectional or something?  how's it know if something's plugged in?
[01:37] <Falc> Hello, I'
[01:37] <alraune> susanna777: did before , but prefer tvtime
[01:37] <MaR> i have the poblem with ACPI support in ubuntu, everytime i boot the system i got message: "no DMI BIOS year, acpi=force is requaired to enable ACPI", when i force to load ACPI the system not booting, i have Fujitsu-Siemens D1107 motherboard, on Windows XP, Mandriva everything works fine (suspend-to-RAM, hibernate) sorry for my english
[01:38] <obidiah> inavat: now that you've stated with the tv, try switching the wire back to the av hub and see if it works now
[01:38] <susanna777> alraune, okay does tv time or myth tv display closed captions
[01:38] <SergeantPony> crimsun: 1 sec
[01:39] <Falc> Hello, I'm trying to get my sound working correctly in Ubuntu on my EeePC. However, every now and again I cannot hear anything or set the volume. This is due to Ubuntu "switching" to snd_pcsp as opposed to snd_hda-intel. The forum search I did pointed me to blacklisting snd-pcsp. But I can
[01:39] <Falc> 't find outhow to do it.
[01:39] <SergeantPony> alraune: it updated some of the files
[01:39] <obidiah> inavat: deep in the bowels of the video driver you can force it on
[01:39] <alraune> SergeantPony: sudo apt-get update  ....
[01:39] <inavat> well I tried that.  the problem is it's two different tvs.  One, which has a screwed up image, has an svideo-in.  The other, which works fine, doesn't have svideo in, so I wanted to use the AV hub.  So I booted ubuntu with it connected to the broken PC.. then unplugged and ran to the other tv and plugged it into the AV hub
[01:39] <inavat> it didn't work
[01:40] <SergeantPony> alraune: still get the alsamixer not found error
[01:40] <obidiah> inavat: at radio shack they sell a $15 adapter that converts s-video to rca video out

[01:41] <glitsj16> Falc: any modules you want blacklisted you need to add to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist manually
[01:41] <Blaqlight> !anyone | MaR
[01:41] <alraune> SergeantPony: but can find the tab under apps>multimedia ???
[01:41] <obidiah> inavat: it's how I solved it with an old dell inspiron notebook
[01:41] <alraune> susanna777: what do you mean with captions ?
[01:41] <miraage> does ufw work for NAT ip forwarding?
[01:41] <Falc> Awesome! How do I add snd_pcsp? Just that? snd_pcsp?, glitsj16?
[01:41] <inavat> alright, maybe i'll try it.  thanks obidiah
[01:41] <Mecha25> MaR, what is your native language?

[01:43] <mbrigdan> anyone know what could be causing the default unzip thing to be dropping the directory structure of the files I unzip? Its *really* annoying.
[01:43] <Falc> ano
[01:43] <Flannel> tabber: yes.  and please don't repeat so often
[01:43] <alraune> susanna777:  see , undertitel, I'll check, brb
[01:43] <Blaqlight> mbrigdan: in archive manager there is a checkbox to retain directory structure, check it.
[01:43] <MaR> mecha25 i tried and i not get the answer
[01:43] <SergeantPony> alraune: function snd_mixer_load failed: No such file or directory
[01:44] <alraune> SergeantPony: so you got a problem with the driver then
[01:44] <Mecha25> MaR: I don't know about ACPI, sorry
[01:44] <guido> how can I tell if there's a br0 error?
[01:44] <crimsun> SergeantPony: did you reboot after making the modprobe conffile change?
[01:44] <Flannel> tabber: wait.  No it won't.  That'll run in August.
[01:44] <mbrigdan> Blaqlight: hmm, don't seem to see it, which menu is it under?
[01:45] <truebosko> Hi there .. I am trying to configur my monitors (dual display) and I've followed numeruos guides with no luck. I just recently updated Ubuntu after a ~5 month hiatus. Has anything changed in the dual screen front?
[01:45] <Blaqlight> it should be on the extract dialog
[01:45] <Mecha25> truebosko: depends, what graphics card do you have?
[01:45] <truebosko> an amd
[01:45] <MaR> mecha25: ok, i keep searching
[01:45] <Blaqlight> sorry mbrigdan : it should be on the extract dialog
[01:45] <tabber> Flannel: thank you. true, so it doesn't matter it the last command runs at 11.58, it doesn't need to be "complete cycle" for it to stop executing right?
[01:45] <truebosko> I've noticed more people have trouble with ATI cards
[01:46] <mbrigdan> Blaqlight: yup, recreate folders. I think... Thanks
[01:46] <truebosko> Sorry, meant to say ATI :)
[01:46] <Flannel> tabber: cron starts jobs, after that they're on their own
[01:46] <Blaqlight> mbrigdan: thats it.
[01:46] <Mecha25> truebosko: good luck.  I'm on ATI, I have dual monitors working, but it took me 3 solid weeks and quite literally breaking my xorg.conf to do it
[01:46] <truebosko> haha
[01:46] <truebosko> :/
[01:46] <Blaqlight> mbrigdan: just for reference was it checked before?
[01:46] <truebosko> ...Share your xorg? :p
[01:46] <tabber> Flannel: thanks, i hope it works. otherwise my server will go to hell :P
[01:47] <truebosko> I have two LCD's, one is bigger then the other (wide screen) .. if atleast for now I could get the resolutions correct (right now the widescreen is kind of wonky) then that'll work until I get dual working
[01:47] <abbazabba> silly question guys, i currently can't get onto ubuntu, and i'm trying to back up all my files through the live cd, however it is saying i do not have read permission, is there any way i could get it?
[01:47] <SergeantPony> crimsun: take out this? : options snd-hda-intel model=auto
[01:47] <mbrigdan> Blaqlight: Well, it was working before, then it stopped, but I didn't change it (I didn't even know the option was there) the default might have changed in an update or something
[01:48] <crimsun> SergeantPony: or comment it out, yes.
[01:48] <Blaqlight> mbrigdan: was it checked when you saw it just then? yes or no?
[01:48] <inavat> obidiah: with the radioshack converter, you still need to cold-reboot right?
[01:48] <Mecha25> truebosko: I can give you my xorg, but part of the config is in the Catalyst Control center, and you have to reset the thing every boot.  Plus, it only works with one orientation, and with 1280x800 + 1280x1024 resolutions
[01:48] <alraune> SergeantPony: rturn from :  modprobe -l | grep snd | grep pci
[01:49] <Mecha25> truebosko: to be perfectly honest, I'm STILL not sure how I got it working
[01:49] <truebosko> Mecha25, ah well then it's probably best you not share and confuse me
[01:49] <truebosko> haha
[01:49] <truebosko> So you're using which drivers?
[01:49] <alraune> sudo SergeantPony: apt-get install hwinfo, pastebin output from hwinfo
[01:49] <Mecha25> the restricted ones, the ones that do 3d well
[01:49] <AMLNXUSR> Hello, I'm trying to get mac like widgets on ubuntu 8.04 any one know how i can do this?
[01:49] <inavat> oh
[01:49] <truebosko> Cause I tried using the other ones...err can't remember name atm, but they made my card constantly run the fan even with nothing happening so that kind of sucked
[01:49] <Zikey> Hi, is there any way to list the files that will be installed through an apt-get install <package> (without installing it)
[01:49] <Mecha25> amlnxusr: you can use either gDesklets (it's in Add/Remove programs), or screenlets
[01:50] <inavat> obidiah: believe it or not, I just tried one of those converters (I searched through my electronics junk drawer) and it worked!
[01:50] <Mecha25> truebosko: envy?
[01:50] <obidiah> inavat yes
[01:50] <truebosko> Nah..started with an 'f'
[01:50] <inavat> obidiah: only thing is, the tv output has no color
[01:50] <truebosko> (that's helpful eh?)
[01:50] <abbazabba> does anyone know the code to move something through terminal?
[01:50] <alraune> susanna777:  in the prefrences of tvtime I could't find any option for that, now installing mythtv..
[01:50] <AMLNXUSR> Mecha25, which one do you suggest?
[01:50] <Blaqlight> AMLNXUSR: you can also use adesklets
[01:50] <Mecha25> truebosko: fglrx?
[01:50] <truebosko> Yup..that's it
[01:50] <MaR>  i have the poblem with ACPI support in ubuntu, everytime i boot the system i got message: "no DMI BIOS year, acpi=force is requaired to enable ACPI", when i force to load ACPI the system not booting, i have Fujitsu-Siemens D1107 motherboard, on Windows XP, Mandriva everything works fine (suspend-to-RAM, hibernate) sorry for my english
[01:50] <blue112> Hello everyone, is there a packet editor on linux (like Wpe pro on windows) ?
[01:50] <alraune>  abbazabba: yep
[01:50] <obidiah> inavat: you should only be sending 16k color
[01:50] <Mecha25> amlnxusr: personally I don't use them, I use conky
[01:51] <abbazabba> alraune: is it something like sudo mv blah blah blah to blahblah blah?
[01:51] <tim167> should i make an ext2 or ext3 partition on my harddisk  ? (gparted suggests ext2 by default )
[01:51] <AMLNXUSR> whats conky?
[01:51] <alraune>  abbazabba: yep
[01:51] <susanna777> alraune, thanks
[01:51] <glitsj16> Zikey: add the "-s" switch to your apt-get to make a dry run
[01:51] <Blaqlight> AMLNXUSR: type apt-cache show conky in a terminal.
[01:51] <obidiah> inavat: weird about the bw, I didn't get that. have you thought about running xconfig again (back up your original xorg.conf file first!)
[01:52] <Blaqlight> AMLNXUSR: it will explain it all to you.
[01:52] <Zikey> glitsj16: unfortunately it doesn't list the files of the package :(
[01:52] <AMLNXUSR> k
[01:52] <inavat> run it now that I have the tv plugged into it?  you think it might autodetect it?
[01:52] <bsmus> anyone here knowledgeable in UFW?
[01:52] <abbazabba> alraune: alright last question, if i want to move something from my desktop, to a usb, how would i go about that?
[01:52] <lampliter> looking for packages on 6.06 that contains fonts mapping to  "-*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*"  a
[01:52] <obidiah> inavat: yes
[01:52] <obidiah> backup your xorg.conf first!!!!
[01:52] <lampliter> any suggestions?
[01:52] <enno_> bsmus: please ask your question
[01:53] <Blaqlight> AMLNXUSR: that really goes for any package that you know the name of.
[01:53] <inavat> obidiah: well taht wipes out my fglrx install (which I installed using EnvyNG).  Maybe I should try running Envy again?   Or i guess I could do xconfig again, and then envy again
[01:53] <blue112> Is there a packet editor on linux (like Wpe pro on windows) ?
[01:53] <bsmus> i've closely followed the server howto about setting up UFW for NAT masquerading. but now when i run sudo ufw enable, i get ERROR: problem running init scripts
[01:53] <obidiah> inavat: the second thing
[01:53] <bsmus> enno_: ever seen that?
[01:54] <truebosko> What is the best way to see if I have an app installed?
[01:54] <AMLNXUSR> blaqlight, what do you mean?
[01:54] <inavat> obidiah: okay, thanks for your help.  I'll try it.  see ya
[01:54] <obidiah> inavat: gl
[01:54] <enno_> bsmus: sry no, i thought you would mean an easier question ;)
[01:54] <alraune>  abbazabba: sudo mv  /home/<user>/Desktop/<filename>    /dev/sdx/
[01:54] <glitsj16> Zikey: i believe the package "apt-file" lists the contents of a package without installing or fetching it, not sure
[01:54] <TiredWolf> yes it does
[01:54] <Blaqlight> AMLNXUSR: to get detailed information on a package type apt-cache show packagename into a terminal for a rundown.
[01:54] <nickrud> !info apt-file
[01:55] <AMLNXUSR> oh ok
[01:55] <bsmus> hrm k
[01:55] <obidiah> truebosco: System | Administration | Synaptic Package Manager
[01:55] <Blaqlight> AMLNXUSR: you might also want to apt-cache -help to get a feature list of other nice things apt-cache can do.
[01:55] <Zikey> glitsj16: trying :)
[01:55] <keri> i need some help
[01:56] <blue112> Is there a packet editor on linux (like Wpe pro on windows) ?
[01:56] <R0b0t1> Wireshark, maybe?
[01:56] <blue112> No, wireshark is read-only :)
[01:56] <blue112> I want to edit packets ^^'
[01:56] <simula> does anyone have an opinion on the best video card for ubuntu / kde4 (x86)?
[01:57] <R0b0t1> Ah
[01:57] <simula> i'm swapping out the guts of my main box
[01:57] <ahmadnfmabelle> helo
[01:57] <Blaqlight> R0b0t1: isn't wireshark a packet sniffer as opposed to an editor?
[01:57] <enno_> simula: nvidia runs nice for me
[01:57] <R0b0t1> Yeah.
[01:57] <R0b0t1> I'm having problems finding a GNOME theme to my liking, does anyone have suggestions?
[01:57] <Blaqlight> R0b0t1: checked out gnome-look.org?
[01:57] <lampliter> blue112: check out netcat
[01:57] <R0b0t1> Blaqlight: Thats where I was looking :D
[01:58] <Blaqlight> R0b0t1: freshmeat.net has tons more.
[01:58] <blue112> lampliter: Thank's, i take a look.
[01:58] <simula> thanks enno_

[01:58] <R0b0t1> enno_ Thanks, I personally dualboot with OSX
[01:59] <blue112> lampliter: Do you know how it works ? It's CLI I guess >_<
[01:59] <enno_> R0b0t1: that customization is quite awesome i think
[01:59] <lampliter> yup cli
[02:00] <blue112> Do you have a tutorial or somethink more clear that the man page ^^' ?
[02:00] <blue112> something*

[02:01] <Jorophose> is hardy conflicting with some older BIOSs a general linux problem or just for hardy?
[02:01] <cxo> does the alternate cd have a pxe image?
[02:02] <alraune> cxo: what a pc, checked the cd for defects ?
[02:02] <cxo> alraune, nah my laptop's cdrom drive is buggered
[02:02] <nickrud> !install | cxo (not sure if pxe is covered there, but most likely)
[02:02] <nickrud> what!!
[02:02] <keri> i  think  it  may hae to do with my bios  i re installed ubuntu and the message went, but  i don't want it in  the future.  so  can it be prevented?
[02:02] <enno_> cxo: http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install
[02:03] <blue112> lampliter: Thank you for this page, but that doesn't explain me the way to use it as I want (packet editor)
[02:03] <alraune> cxo: c, could try net install, though you first need a proved burn of the - whatever - installer cd

[02:05] <lampliter> blue112: I'm not sure how to use it as an editor except and to read in a packet, alter it with an editor such as Emacs or a hex editor and then spit it out again

[02:06] <crimsun> stodge: sure, what's the issue?  randomly inaudible?
[02:06] <enno_> stodge: you need to install libflashsupport from the repos

[02:09] <instabin> Blaqlight : i installed java but that didnt fix it
[02:09] <cxo> they should put the netboot folder back on the disc

[02:11] <Harley^> Hello
[02:11] <overlordpuppy> I've got a series of PNG images. How do I make them into an mpeg video with the same quality?
[02:12] <alraun1> whta: sry, had to log off for a moment, got it
[02:12] <TiredWolf> overlordpuppy: you don't
[02:12] <TiredWolf> overlordpuppy: mpeg is a lossy format, png is not
[02:13] <Harley^> This morning, JACK Control in Ubuntu ran perfectly, I turned off my computer and now it won't start. Another user helped earlier and had me change the order of the somethingorother.ko's  can someone help please ?
[02:13] <mrpockets> Just installed Ubuntu on my laptop. How do i get dual view monitors when using the VGA out on my laptop?
[02:13] <crimsun> Harley^: what error is qjackctl giving?
[02:13] <nickrud> !dualmonitors | mrpockets (might help)
[02:13] <nickrud> !dualmonitor | mrpockets (might help)
[02:14] <Harley^> crimsun: Yes ! Its YOU !
[02:14] <TiredWolf> nickrud: dual monitor, dual factoid
[02:14] <nickrud> TiredWolf I might alias that, I think dual implies plural ;)
[02:15] <TiredWolf> nickrud: nah, or it'd be called "two monitors". but, alias away :P
[02:15] <krazy-h> Can somebody help me please
[02:16] <krazy-h> I have a problem with yasr
[02:16] <bartek> Does anyone know what repo I need to get BitchX?
[02:16] <CheeseGardener> Could someone here give me a hand choosing a power supply for my dual boot system?
[02:16] <bartek> everone says "universe" but I have a bunch of universe entries in my sources.list so that makes no sense to me
[02:16] <Flannel> bartek: BitchX is abandonware.  It isn't in a repo.
[02:16] <bartek> Ah
[02:16] <Jadewolf> Guys, would ubuntu be a good OS for using to install on a P1-233MMX laptop with 64mb ram a webcam? I'm trying to setup a commandline "security" camera with it.
[02:16] <bartek> ok..I need a good irc client then :-)
[02:17] <Flannel> bartek: Try irssi
[02:17] <RatKingX> try pidgin
[02:17] <soldats> bartek: irssi is superior to bitchx
[02:17] <soldats> its cli as well
[02:17] <bartek> ya I heard good things about irssi
[02:17] <TiredWolf> bartek, there are four main repositories: 1) hardy, the main one 2) hardy-updates, bugfixes 3) hardy-security, security fixes
[02:17] <soldats> give it a shot you may like it
[02:17] <bartek> Oh I see
[02:17] <TiredWolf> bartek: then Main, Restricted, Universe and Multiverse are *components*
[02:17] <bartek> Components meaning?
[02:17] <TiredWolf> bartek: for each component you want enabled, you should have all three repositories
[02:17] <TiredWolf> bartek: it means it's a part of a repository
[02:18] <bartek> I see
[02:18] <CheeseGardener> If anyone could, I need some help choosing a power supply for my dual boot system
[02:18] <ludwig> hey all, any body get the gtx260 nvidia card working from any stock repository
[02:18] <CheeseGardener> O dpm
[02:18] <TiredWolf> bartek: in other words, if you have Universe only enabled in the "hardy" repository, but not in the "hardy-updates" repository, then you won't get bugfixes for Universe packages
[02:18] <CheeseGardener> I don't use the GTX 200 series ludwig
[02:18] <RatKingX> CheeseGardener: what hardware do you have?
[02:18] <bazhang> #hardware CheeseGardener
[02:18] <Flannel> CheeseGardener: #ubuntu-offtopic would be the appropriate place
[02:18] <CheeseGardener> it is a waste of money
[02:18] <CheeseGardener> I use 2 ATI HD 4850s Crossfire
[02:18] <TiredWolf> bartek: so as a rule of thumb, you should have every needed component enabled in every repository, and that's why you see Universe in many places
[02:18] <miranda> okay this is another question related to the computer that I am working with...
[02:19] <enno_> CheeseGardener: http://web.aanet.com.au/SnooP/psucalc.php
[02:19] <bartek> Thanks TiredWolf , glad to know what it means now
[02:19] <CheeseGardener> Ok, off topic then?
[02:19] <miranda> it says that I have 3000MB and that I need 5000MB
[02:19] <alraun1> Jadewolf: PI ? not really, a PIII is very cheap at ebay nowadays...  | give additional 64 MB, try win 98, lol
[02:19] <ludwig> serisouly...anybody get the new nvidia 200 serious cards working with a default ubuntu package
[02:20] <bazhang> Jadewolf, that amount of ram really is too minimal unless you want a cli only system
[02:20] <ludwig> i've googled till i'm out of ideas on google bait
[02:20] <hsandhu> fuddi kidaan maaridi aa?
[02:20] <bazhang> hsandhu, english please
[02:20] <hsandhu> bazhang: sorry
[02:21] <chao1> I am trying to mount a hdd that I guess is about to fail. is there a way to mount it to view a corrupted ext2 partition. (a mess I know)
[02:21] <miranda> is there a version of ubuntu where I can install with less memory because I am deleting all of the files to make more memory
[02:21] <chao1> miranda try xubuntu
[02:21] <soldats> xubuntu
[02:21] <Ximal> xubuntu mm iranda
[02:21] <miranda> chao1: thanks
[02:22] <TiredWolf> chao1, well, i guess mount it read only, for a start... you don't really want to write on it if it's failing
[02:22] <chao1> welcome
[02:22] <bazhang> miranda, how little ram we talking
[02:22] <chao1> how do I do that?
[02:22] <miranda> IIRC 64 MB bazhang
[02:22] <TiredWolf> chao1: sudo mount /dev/whatever /mnt/whatever -o ro - i believe
[02:22] <chao1> I tried reading the man entry but those are still hard to understand
[02:22] <Blaqlight> the wine gecko installer won't install gecko, WoW keeps asking for it on load, how can I force it too finish the download?
[02:22] <bartek> woah
[02:23] <bartek> irssi is interesting :)
[02:23] <lnxmad> Hows Ubuntu coming on the ps3?
[02:23] <chao1> ok i will try now
[02:23] <bazhang> #ubuntu-ps3
[02:23] <miranda> does xubuntu work as well as ubuntu?
[02:23] <lnxmad> thanks
[02:23] <Blaqlight> bartek: its awesome once you get used to it... < former xchat user
[02:24] <bazhang> miranda, 64mb may not do it; fluxbuntu perhaps but even that is a stretch
[02:24] <Blaqlight> miranda: prolly a little faster, being as though xfce uses less rescources than gnome.
[02:24] <bartek> Blaqlight: oh I bet...I remember loading up VIM for the first time and being very confused. Now I swear by it, this seems like the same thing
[02:24] <bazhang> lots of gtk stuff in xubuntu though
[02:24] <miranda> bazhang: I am updating from windows 98
[02:24] <Blaqlight> bartek: Im still lost in vim.
[02:25] <chao1> this is what it put on screen: http://paste.ubuntu.com/30726/
[02:26] <chao1> ... and its /media/whatever instead of /mnt/whatever for those taking notes (in ubuntu)
[02:26] <TiredWolf> chao1: well, actually, it's wherever there is a valid directory :) but yeah, it's supposed to be /media
[02:27] <enno_> Blaqlight: get the gecko cab file from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6241&package_id=195269 and extract it using cabextract to .wine/drive_c/Program Files/
[02:27] <chao1> yeah :)
[02:27] <TiredWolf> chao1: try forcing ext2 by adding the "-t ext2" option. but if it can't understand it's an ext2 partition... tough luck i'm afraid
[02:27] <piratelordx> can anyone help me in pm im tryin to run internet explorer 7 through wine
[02:28] <TiredWolf> chao1, what you should do, really, is take an image of that drive into another drive, and then work on the image
[02:28] <swamptin> right, stoopid question, and I'm assuming you can, but... a lot of advice I've gotten has been like "<command> && <command>" in relation to installs etc. etc. Can you que up any sort/number/variation of commands in that way and let it run?
[02:28] <Blaqlight> enno_: it gets about 1/3rd of the way through and then mysteriously and without warning, dies.
[02:28] <bazhang> piratelordx, check #winehq and appdb
[02:28] <obidiah> miranda: is your problem a shortage of RAM or a shortage of hard drive space
[02:28] <bazhang> !appdb | piratelordx
[02:28] <piratelordx> kk
[02:28] <soldats> miranda: honestly as much as i hate to say it, you may need a different distro capable of handling little ram that you have. you may be able to try xubuntu with someting even smaller than fluxbox. possibly xubuntu with DWM may work. youll need some time to get DWm to work for you though
[02:28] <piratelordx> thankd
[02:28] <bazhang> np
[02:28] <enno_> Blaqlight: try the cab file, it is the same thing wine does, just manually
[02:29] <user1>  what are the ways to install a .deb ?  i cant install it with gdebi ?
[02:29] <TiredWolf> user1: yes you can, if it's an Ubuntu .deb
[02:29] <Blaqlight> miranda: 64mb ram is all you have?
[02:29] <bazhang> user1, what deb
[02:29] <miranda> so d/l xubuntu right...that handles 64MB of ram?
[02:29] <tim167> hello, i can't play a DVD movie, i installed libxine, gsreamer plugins and whatnot, but still no luck, can someone help me ? thanks
[02:29] <TiredWolf> miranda: still a bit tight i'd say
[02:29] <Blaqlight> miranda: you might just consider no gui at all. CLI only is fun.
[02:29] <soldats> there really isnt an ubuntu that handles such low ram
[02:29] <user1> TiredWolf:  bazhang is an ubuntu deb. but its it vanishes in the middle.  limewire it is.
[02:29] <bazhang> miranda, no
[02:29] <TiredWolf> !limewire | user1
[02:29] <soldats> the lowest wanted ram i think is 128
[02:30] <_Zeus_> what is ubotu?
[02:30] <_Zeus_> doesn't work here
[02:30] <bazhang> a bot
[02:30] <soldats> a bot
[02:30] <TiredWolf> !bot > _Zeus_
[02:30] <obidiah> miranda: xubuntu is your best bet for a real distribution
[02:30] <_Zeus_> oh it's ubottu not ubotu
[02:31] <_Zeus_> two t;s
[02:31] <TiredWolf> currently, yes
[02:31] <soldats> its the replacement
[02:31] <tim167> what does it take to play a DVD on ubuntu ?
[02:31] <obidiah> miranda: xfce is very similar to gnome and runs on older hardware
[02:31] <_Zeus_> libdvdcss1?
[02:31] <miranda> ok it has 64MB
[02:31] <bazhang> !dvd | tim167
[02:31] <_Zeus_> sry libdvdcss2
[02:31] <user1> TiredWolf:  sudo dpkg -i LimeWireLinux.deb works
[02:31] <bazhang> obidiah, not on 64mb
[02:31] <mouser-> tim167: Otherwise you should be able to play unprotected DVDs out of the box.
[02:31] <Blaqlight> _Zeus_: libdvdcss2
[02:32] <chao1> it told me to run e2fsck and this is what I got http://paste.ubuntu.com/30727/
[02:32] <fiXXXerMet> I just installed the flash-nonfree plugin from within firefox, but flash still isn't showing (It says "Click here to download the plugin."  But when I do so, it says that the plugin is already installed.
[02:32] <Sylphid> I have tk8.5 installed to fill the xchat dependancy for tk8.4 but it shows xchat as a broken package without tk8.4 installed ... how can I fix this without installing tk8,4 (it breaks some scripts)
[02:32] <soldats> miranda: if you have some time to kill look up some distros that handle low ram possibly arch. i dont want to push you away but ubuntu doesnt really run off 64
[02:32] <_Zeus_> did you restart firefox, fixxxermet?
[02:32] <enno_> fiXXXerMet: have you tried to restart firefox?
[02:32] <_Zeus_> ninja'd :-D
[02:33] <fiXXXerMet> haha
[02:33] <fiXXXerMet> Yeah, I did.
[02:33] <chao1> TiredWolf: what should I do?
[02:33] <fiXXXerMet> Oh, wait - I had another window open on another workspace.
[02:33] <fiXXXerMet> There we go!
[02:33] <enno_> fiXXXerMet: maybe you should try the flashplugin from the adobe homepage
[02:33] <soldats> fiXXXerMet: run firefx and int he address bar type "about:plugins" and see what it says about flash
[02:33] <miranda> I am thinking of doing xubuntu b/c it has greater support...second choice
[02:33] <TiredWolf> chao1: oh no, don't run fsck (well, too late). the more you write to the drive (and fsck could write a lot), the more you risk that it fails completely
[02:34] <chao1> :o
[02:34] <chao1> =-O
[02:34] <CShadowRun> Weirdest bug report you'll ever read people... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/252228
[02:34] <TiredWolf> chao1, i'd suggest a "dd if=/dev/sdb2 of=partitionimage-or-whatever", i think that should work to create an image - then work on that
[02:34] <TiredWolf> chao1: if you have the space, of course
[02:34] <soldats> miranda: if that doesnt work try arch, arch is a lot more complicated but runs a lot better on low memory systems
[02:34] <chao1> how would I work on that?
[02:35] <_Zeus_> i would use xubuntu
[02:35] <gradin> i'm having troubles mounting a directory
[02:35] <TiredWolf> chao1: just as if it were a real partition. almost. you can mount it with the "-o loop" option
[02:35] <tim167> how do i install  libdvdcss2 ?
[02:35] <_Zeus_> you need the medibuntu repos
[02:35] <_Zeus_> do you have them?
[02:35] <soldats> gradin: explain, maybe we can help
[02:35] <gradin> whats the easiest way to mount /home/test to /var/www/test ?
[02:35] <TiredWolf> chao1: like, "sudo mount partitionimage /media/blah -o loop", or you could just try "e2fsck -b 8193 partitionimage"
[02:35] <gradin> so that an ftp server can read it...
[02:36] <mlLK> in aptitude what does 'A' mean where it is displayed between install-status and package name?
[02:36] <enno_> gradin: have you tried to use a symlink

[02:37] <Blaqlight> I need to get gnome-settings-daemon running in fluxbox. it tells me ** (gnome-settings-daemon:11093): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to session bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-zUXDjxGpmv: Connection refused
[02:37] <gradin> Server sent passive reply with unroutable address. Using server address instead.
[02:37] <_Zeus_> CShadowRun: could  you include a copy of Xorg.log?
[02:37] <CShadowRun> _Zeus_ if you tell me where i can get it, sure.
[02:38] <gradin> so using symlinks is out
[02:38] <gradin> i tried a mount --bind and that didn't work either
[02:38] <bartek> can someone say my name? sorry.. wont ask again just need to test something qucik
[02:38] <Johnny> i cant get any themes working
[02:38] <Blaqlight> does that mean that it won't run without gnome-session running or am I missing something?
[02:38] <enno_> gradin: does the ftp server has access to the directory?
[02:38] <Johnny> i installed xfce-goodies and gtk-engines*
[02:38] <alraun1> bartek:?
[02:38] <bartek> alraun1: thank you :)
[02:38] <Johnny> and nothing shows up in preferences
[02:38] <Blaqlight> bartek: hi
[02:39] <CShadowRun> _Zeus_ can you tell me where i can find it?
[02:39] <gradin> enno_: yeah
[02:39] <fde> gradin: mount -o loop /whatever /wherever

[02:41] <Twili> Hey what's up
[02:41] <kadu> alguem pode me ajudar com o ubuntu... sou iniciante e não conheço nada
[02:41] <gradin> fde: didnt' work either
[02:41] <fde> gradin: is there an error?
[02:41] <CShadowRun> _Zeus_ i'm on it :D
[02:41] <alraun1> CShadowRun: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:41] <miranda> What's the net benefit of having more ram with ubuntu?
[02:42] <Twili> What new features are expected for the next release of Ubuntu?
[02:42] <lucent> Skype + Bluetooth headset + Ubuntu Hardy = pulseaudio segfault
[02:42]  * lucent :(
[02:42] <snarkster> just like windows you go faster more elbow room
[02:42] <fde> miranda: same as with any os... faster access to things you've already ran via cache.
[02:42] <CShadowRun> i'll move that one and then reproduce the bug, so in theory you should get a clear log with only the error in it
[02:42] <Sylphid> I have tk8.5 installed to fill the xchat dependancy for tk8.4 but it shows xchat as a broken package without tk8.4 installed ... how can I fix this without installing tk8,4 (it breaks some scripts)
[02:42] <alraun1> miranda: quicker page setup,...
[02:42] <Twili> What new features are expected for the next release of Ubuntu?
[02:42] <miranda> awesome...thanks
[02:42] <Twili> What new features are expected for the next release of Ubuntu?
[02:42] <lucent> miranda: the downside is that hibernate takes longer
[02:42] <Twili> What new features are expected for the next release of Ubuntu?
[02:42] <gradin> ok now it works sweet
[02:42] <RatKingX> hush!
[02:42] <Twili> What new features are expected for the next release of Ubuntu?
[02:42] <Twili> What new features are expected for the next release of Ubuntu?

[02:43] <lucent> miranda: you need lots of swap to cover the higher quantity of ram
[02:43] <CShadowRun> _Zeus_ it doesn't appear to add anything new to the log
[02:43] <kadu> #ubuntu-br
[02:43] <lucent> miranda: 2GiB is plenty of RAM for most desktop users
[02:43] <_Zeus_> roger CShadowRun
[02:43] <nickelodiun> I need help installing UBUNTU on my new Toshiba A305D
[02:43] <_Zeus_> they should be bold if there's anything new
[02:43] <fde> nickelodiun: What are you confused about?
[02:44] <alraun1> lucent: if its enough ram, you could also decrease swap to a min or disable it
[02:44] <CShadowRun> _Zeus_ by that i mean, i renamed Xorg.0.log to Xorg.0.log.back, then span my volume knob around for a while, it didn't create a new log
[02:44] <nickelodiun> I try to install, but it crash on the start up
[02:44] <lucent> alraun1: no, no, listen to what I'm saying here :P   Hibernate uses your swap partition to store the contents of RAM
[02:44] <_Zeus_> roger yeah that works
[02:44] <lucent> more ram = need bigger swap
[02:44] <CShadowRun> ok :)
[02:44] <fde> lucent: no
[02:44] <cars> Is there an automated way to repair an existing ubuntu installation using the hoary CD?
[02:44] <alraun1> nickelodiun: what problem you got ?
[02:44] <_Zeus_> hoary?
[02:44] <_Zeus_> that's like 2 years old!
[02:44] <Blaqlight> I think Im going to use gparted to remove windows from my system permenantly, I haven't used it in 4 months.
[02:45] <cars> er, the new one.
[02:45] <alraun1> lucent: k, for hibernation
[02:45] <_Zeus_> hardy?
[02:45] <bartek> time to try and get atleast one display working properly with the correct resolution...somehow I can see myself staying up till 4am
[02:45] <cars> Yeah.  4.08
[02:45] <Blaqlight> cars: thats hardy heron
[02:45] <fde> cars: install something newer, that is almost 4 years old
[02:45] <cars> Getting the animal names mixed up.  The newest one that I downloaded a second ago.
[02:45] <nickelodiun> this is the error http://mx.geocities.com/zednanreh69/errorubuntu.jpg
[02:46] <cxo> hey umm, i tried that netboot thing and its downloading packages from the net, can i point it to the cd i downloaded and kept on an nfs share?
[02:46] <fde> Blaqlight: no it's not... hoary was the only release that wasn't 04 or 10
[02:46] <lucent> nickelodiun: Hm, it will be important to drill this down some.   Bad CD? Not enough RAM? wrong display mode for your LCD (happens a lot on Dell or LCD displays)?
[02:46] <Blaqlight> cars 8.04 LTS?
[02:46] <nickelodiun> NOP
[02:46] <Flannel> fde: Hoary was, Dapper wasn't.
[02:46] <jeeves__> how can I find out why add/remove programs is locking up when I try to install new software?
[02:46] <fde> cars: Go grab hardy
[02:46] <CShadowRun> nickelodiun lol at the camera, heres a hint. Press the "Print screen" or "Prt Scr" button on your keyboard. It'll save a picture of whats currently on your screen to a file.
[02:46] <cars> Blaqlight, yes.  The one that was released this yer.
[02:46] <nickelodiun> I got 10 NEW CDS FROM CANONICAL, 3GB RAM
[02:47] <urbanmonkey> nickelodiun: have you tried the textbased installer?
[02:47] <Blaqlight> fde he said he just did.
[02:47] <lucent> nickelodiun: could be bad RAM, bad CD, or you just ran out of RAM because you did something else while running the GUI installer.... try installing using the alternate CD
[02:47] <chao1> TireWolf: currently running dd. had to get my external hdd. I have the bad hdd in my media tank that i got from thinkgeek.com (everyone should get one) and running it on my laptop.
[02:47] <alraun1> nickelodiun: 10 ??
[02:47] <lucent> nickelodiun: are you using a shipit CD? or have you burned your own?
[02:47] <nickelodiun> THIS IS NOT MY PICTURE, but seems like a lot of ppl are having the same problem
[02:47] <fde> Flannel: ahh... well 4.08 may have even been warty, I forget... that's very old.
[02:47] <jeeves__> Blaqlight, any ideas on this add/remove programs thing locking up?  I don't think I flushed all the LDAP stuff out
[02:47] <nickelodiun> yes, that too
[02:47] <nickelodiun> is not the cd, I checked that
[02:48] <Flannel> fde: no, 4.10 was Warty, 5.04 was Hoary (5.10 Breezy).  6.06 was Dapper.
[02:48] <cars> fde, Blaqlight, sorry for the confusion.  I'm using the latest release.
[02:48] <Blaqlight> jeeves__: sorry but no i don't
[02:48] <lucent> nickelodiun: what program do you use to write out your CD?
[02:48] <chao1> TiredWolf: /thanks
[02:48] <o0splitpaw0o> join #o0splitpaw0o's-show
[02:48] <nickelodiun> several, but is not the CD, this cd installs on other laptops
[02:48] <fde> cars: anyway... yes... I think it has a repair feature if you boot like you're going to install.
[02:49] <Johnny> can someone help me
[02:49] <Johnny> i cant get any themes to install
[02:49] <lucent> nickelodiun: I am curious though
[02:49] <LinkManDX> does Hardy come with a MIDI system preinstalled?
[02:49] <fde> Johnny: only if you ask a question.
[02:49] <qwm> Johnny: yeah, but you need to find that someone.
[02:49] <lucent> LinkManDX: ALSA has the "seq" subsystem which is for MIDI sequencing, yes
[02:49] <guido_> I'm getting an error while doing a poweroff ia vbox windows: http://paste.ubuntu.com/30730/ any thoughts?
[02:49] <qwm> pray and you will find God too.
[02:49] <jeeves__> Blaqlight, when I do a "sudo apt- get install", etc, it says... "sudo: unable to resolve host Pennie2"
[02:49] <cars> fde, thanks.  I'll try that.
[02:49] <nickelodiun> nero, alcohol just to mention some
[02:49] <alraun1> nickelodiun: so does this screen apear after first boot , when install has finished ?
[02:50] <LinkManDX> lucent: I was wondering because I'm running TuxGuitar and it's throwing an error at me when I try playback
[02:50] <derekv> Is compiz known to hang a lot with the ati proprietary drivers, that anyone is aware of? (i know ubuntu can't support these drivers, i'm just wondering if this is a known buggy combination or if it is unique to me)
[02:50] <EruditeHermit> does anyone know how to specify which video port xine uses
[02:50] <nickelodiun> no, before it trys to install
[02:50] <TiredWolf> chao1: well, now keep that drive image safe, and at least you know you won't lose your data, and one way or another you can recover what's left even if the drive fails. i'm heading to bed now though
[02:50] <jeeves__> Flannel, any ideas on this questionable issue?
[02:50] <lucent> LinkManDX: synthesizing sound based on MIDI events is a different issue though
[02:50] <Adantan_Alex> hey
[02:50] <Flannel> !hostname | jeeves__
[02:50] <nickelodiun> I put the cd in, boot to the loader, select to install and I get this
[02:50] <ManualOverDozer8> when will flash plugin for mozilla ever get fixed ? or is there one that works ?
[02:50] <Blaqlight> jeeves__: perhaps your link location is bad, try another. or open firefox and try google.com to see if your internet connection is working.
[02:50] <lucent> LinkManDX: look into some software called "timidity" there are a lot of posts about it on ubuntu forums
[02:50] <fde> lucent: most use brasero or k3b ... personally, I just use 'wodim --data file1 file2 file3'
[02:51] <Flannel> jeeves__: Thats your problem (hostname issues)
[02:51] <chao1> TiredWolf: thanks
[02:51] <alraun1> nickelodiun: did you try boot options, e.g. acpi=off ?
[02:51] <jeeves__> Blaqlight, it's comming back with pam_auth error
[02:51] <chao1> I had been trying to remember how to use the dd command
[02:51] <ManualOverDozer8> if someone knows of a flash-plugin for mozzilla that works, please let me know
[02:51] <Adantan_Alex> hey guys is there a way i can download the old version of ubuntu?
[02:51]  * lucent /whois fde
[02:51] <chao1> I learned it in my linux class
[02:51] <Flannel> Adantan_Alex: which version?
[02:51] <Adantan_Alex> the one before 8.04?
[02:51] <LinkManDX> lucent: thanks, i'll check that out
[02:51] <Blaqlight> jeeves__: listen to Flannel
[02:51] <alraun1> cxo: didn't understand your question
[02:51] <Flannel> Adantan_Alex: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.10/
[02:51] <Adantan_Alex> thats it? ty
[02:52] <jeeves__> Flannel, thanks
[02:52] <nickelodiun> I was told it was that ubuntu did not recongnized my hard drive\
[02:52] <ManualOverDozer8> the previous was 7.01 i believe
[02:52] <fde> chao1: what do you want to know about it?
[02:52] <Adantan_Alex> !info
[02:52] <lucent> nickelodiun: it's possible that your computer uses a chipset not yet supported by the installer
[02:52] <fde> ManualOverDozer8: 7.04
[02:52] <ailean> guys, i want to reinstall windows so i can use my iphone.  at present i have 2 partitions, both of which are linux.  how can i tape over one while keeping my current working linux partition selectable from a menu?
[02:52] <nickelodiun> what can I do?
[02:53] <alraun1> nickelodiun: can you run ubu as live system ?
[02:53] <Blaqlight> omg this wine gecko installer may actually finish downloading the file for the first time.
[02:53] <cxo> I'm install ubuntu using a pxe image i found on this site http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install however the installer is downloading packages from the net, which is gonna take ages since my connection is slow, I already have 8.04 disc downloaded and placed on an nfs share, how do i get the installer to use it?
[02:53] <guren> ManualOverDozer8: flashplugin-nonfree works fine with me
[02:53] <Flannel> fde, ManualOverDozer8, 7.10 was directly before, 7.04 was one before that.
[02:53] <jeeves__> Flannel, all of them show up as "Pennie2"
[02:53] <urbanmonkey> ok, possibly stupid question, under 7.10 i could write to my ext3 usb drive, i've done a clean install of 8.04.1, and now i can't write to the same drive... what changed?
[02:53] <ManualOverDozer8> fde: is there an archived one that he can download 7.04 ?
[02:53] <nickelodiun> nada, i does not work
[02:53] <chao1> i have it running. TiredWolf told me what I needed. However Now I need to mount it
[02:53] <ailean> guys, i want to reinstall windows so i can use my iphone.  at present i have 2 partitions, both of which are linux.  how can i tape over one while keeping my current working linux partition selectable from a menu? if i can't do this i'll just go back to windows.
[02:53] <nickelodiun> it does not work as live cd
[02:53] <lucent> nickelodiun: if it's not supported, there's not a lot you can do except wait for it to be supported.   if instead there is some other issue happening, then you need to do some more research
[02:53] <Flannel> jeeves__: Can you open up another terminal and sudo successfully?
[02:53] <fde> ManualOverDozer8: yes... but I forget the link... why do you want an old version though?
[02:53] <Adantan_Alex> !repeat
[02:54] <jeeves__> Flannel, no.  as well, add/remove programs wizard locks up.
[02:54] <fde> Flannel: What is the link for EOL versions of Ubuntu (say for supported upgrades etc)
[02:54] <lucent> nickelodiun: I find that Ubuntu Hardy is workable on about 80% of computers I try it on
[02:54] <chao1> nickelodiun: what kind of issue are you having again
[02:54] <lucent> nickelodiun: if it's not working right away, it takes me an average of 4-5 hours to make it working
[02:54] <nickelodiun> alraun1: no I can not run live
[02:54] <ManualOverDozer8> fde: another person had asked, but, i was interested in know if there was myself.
[02:54] <guren> ailean: resize one linux partition then reformat that partition..  reinstall windows on that separate partition then run grub on a livecd
[02:55] <lucent> nickelodiun: the easiest thing is if you have access to multiple computers, skip using it on your laptop and use it on another PC
[02:55] <jeeves__> I think I'm just going to blow this install away and try it again
[02:55] <cxo> alraun1, did you get it now?
[02:55] <ManualOverDozer8> nickelodiunL i found some things dont work on LiveCD, but, when you install it, they work just fine
[02:55] <Adantan_Alex> awkward
[02:55] <chao1> ailean: try this:
[02:55] <Adantan_Alex> lol j/k um ty
[02:55] <chao1> http://howtoforge.com/installing-vmware-server-on-ubuntu-8.04
[02:56] <Blaqlight> jeeves__: thats prolly not a bad idea.
[02:56] <lucent> jeeves__: your DNS is pooched
[02:56] <lucent> jeeves__: that causes X11 apps to stop functioning
[02:56] <ailean> chaol, apparently vmware won't allow the iphone to connect
[02:56] <alraun1> cxo: yes,I'm not shure as it is possible in debian, what bandwith does the download have ?
[02:56] <jeeves__> lucent, is it an easy fix, or should I just blow it away?
[02:56] <guren> ailean: how about wine?
[02:56] <lucent> jeeves__: X11 is network based.... when DNS goes fubar, practically nothing works
[02:56] <nickelodiun> I CAN NOT INSTALL, RUN LIVE OR BOOT UBUNTU.. I have a toshiba A305D-S6831, AMD Turion 64 x2 Dual-core M 3000mb RAM
[02:56] <Johnny> does anyone know how to fix themes not being able to install
[02:56] <chao1> how do you normally connect it?
[02:56] <lucent> jeeves__: should be an easy fix *if* you can still sudo, lol
[02:57] <rockenrola> I have a EPS file that I can't open with gipm, ghostscript and inkscape. It seems to have some errors. Is it possible to correct the errors?
[02:57] <mortal1> anyone know how to auto download recommended packages via apt-get?
[02:57] <LinkManDX> nickelodiun: did you boot off the cd?
[02:57] <lucent> jeeves__: got a LiveCD handy?
[02:57] <cgreen> nickelodiun: try using the alternate install disc, i had a similiar problem
[02:57] <fde> mortal1: you can't, try aptitude
[02:57] <chao1> nickelodiun: try puppylinux to see if a different live version will work
[02:57] <alraun1> nickelodiun: try goole: ubuntu  toshiba A305D-S6831 ?
[02:57] <cxo> alraun1, not much, 512kbit/s
[02:57] <ailean> guren, does itunes work under wine?
[02:57] <alraun1> nickelodiun: try google: ubuntu  toshiba A305D-S6831 ?
[02:57] <Kohlrak> I installed ubuntu server, but it hung when installing LAMP, Mail, and a few other things. So i decided to reboot instead and install from there and even install gnome so i have the fancy things with the desktop ubuntu (without all the extra programs), but i can't seem to get ubuntu to start gnome. Any ideas?
[02:57] <fde> ailean: yes
[02:57] <guren> ailean: yes, i've tried it before
[02:57] <nickelodiun> This is my last hope, I ve try all
[02:58] <mlLK> where does aptitude and apt-get store packages?
[02:58] <cgreen> quick ?, anyone know of a free inventory management software for ubuntu, im talking product inventory not hardware/software
[02:58] <lucent> mlLK: /var/cache/apt something or other
[02:58] <fde> mlLK: /var/cache/apt/archive
[02:58] <mlLK> gracias
[02:58] <lucent> mlLK: just do apt-get clean though
[02:58] <jeeves__> lucent, not here, and I don't have the usal blank CD-RW in my drive either.
[02:58] <Blaqlight> mlLK: /var/temp
[02:58] <lucent> don't mess with /var/*
[02:58] <mlLK> lucent, why?
[02:58] <Kohlrak> cgreen, if there aren't any, there's always gcc
[02:58] <fde> Blaqlight: huh?
[02:58] <cars> fde, I'm fairly sure I remember seeing it as a menu option in a previous release, but I don't see the automated repair option in the new graphical installer.  Do you know where it is?
[02:58] <jeeves__> lucent, are you going to be on-line for a while (under an hour)?
[02:58] <mlLK> i just need to configure something
[02:58] <lucent> mlLK: trust me!  you may find it exciting if you don't agree with me
[02:59] <mlLK> lucent, yikes
 I want to install linux on this laptop, so I am stock with Windows?
[02:59] <lucent> jeeves__: sure mate, are you in the US?  (checking...)
[02:59] <cgreen> nickelodiun: if the alternate wont work try going to forum.ubuntu.com somebody had to have had a similiar problem and fixed it, if not try using fedora, puppy, or some other linux to see if it is just ubuntu
[02:59] <alraun1> cxo: I've got an up to 16 MB downstream,  but never got more then 800kbit/s in Installations, mostly around 700k/s, so that shouldn't matter
[02:59] <mortal1> why would apt-get suggest packages that you can't automatically install via some switch?
[02:59] <mlLK> lucent, i just wanna configure vbox
[02:59] <fde> cars: Maybe it's just part of the GRUB menu after install, I've never had to use it (shocking considering how much I "play" with this system  :P )
[02:59] <Blaqlight> fde: mistype. dyxlexia kicks in when I least expect it.
[02:59] <lusepuster> Ooops.... I've seemed to remove myself from the sudoers list. Any way to fix this without doing a fresh install?
[02:59] <fde> mlLK: Are you getting any errors?
[02:59] <chao1> ailean: if you create a windows vm with any flavor of vm emulator you should be able to connect the iPHONE the same way as if you installed it on a different partition
[02:59] <lucent> lusepuster: yes
[02:59] <alraun1> cox: what a pc is it ?
[02:59] <cgreen> Kohlrak: gcc???
[02:59] <mlLK> fde, haven't attempted it yet
[02:59] <cxo> alraun1, you do know,  512kbit/s is like 64kbytes/s ?
[03:00] <fde> mlLK: Try it, then ask questions  :/
[03:00] <ailean> chao1, ok, but you can't
[03:00] <Tetrohead> hey guys. i just dragged my trash bin off my desktop. tried "Keep Aligned" and using gconf-editor
[03:00] <lucent> lusepuster: reboot, get to GRUB menu (escape key before 3 second count down), choose recovery mode
[03:00] <lusepuster> lucent, you happen to know a solution? ;-)
[03:00] <cars> fde, well, there is a rescue option which drops you into a CLI root session, but not what I was thinking of.
[03:00] <lusepuster> lucent, thanks...
[03:00] <alraun1> cxo: oohmps...
[03:00] <lucent> lusepuster: and uh...  that's classic
[03:00] <lucent> thanks
[03:00] <jeeves__> lucent, naaa, I'm in Vancouver Canada.  I'm just going to head back to the house to do a fresh install.  I was going to say if you're around, I'd get your help fixing this video issue
[03:00] <lucent> it makes me giggle
[03:00] <fde> cars: What exactly is wrong?
[03:00] <Kohlrak> cgreen, it's a C compiler. A program to take inventory shouldn't be overly hard to make if you don't need something with a professional logo on it
[03:00] <chao1> :-?
[03:00] <guren> ailean: i can't wait to get my hands on an iphone 3g.. have you tried rhythmbox with it?
[03:00] <Kohlrak> many would consider such a thing to be a hello world program
[03:01] <lusepuster> lucent, I know, it's stupid... So in reocovery mode...?
[03:01] <Sindacious> What would one do to extract a .gz file?
[03:01] <ailean> guren, not yet. i just got mine today
[03:01] <lusepuster> Sindacious, by command line you mean?
[03:01] <cgreen> Kohlrak: lol im still learning how to program in javascript lol, ya know where i could get some good reading on the subject, i really wanna learn
[03:01] <jeeves__> Sindacious, if it's in the dir where you want it.  tar -xvf <file name>
[03:01] <Tetrohead> Help me haha.  Can't get it back.
[03:01] <Sindacious> lusepuster, sure
[03:01] <lucent> lusepuster: recovery mode is a text console, you can "visudo" and stuff.  It's too verbose to explain in-channel
[03:02] <guren> ailean: i see.. there are plugins though in rhythmbox that you might wanna try..
[03:02] <lucent> jeeves__: alright
[03:02] <fde> Sindacious: tar.gz ? tar xzf whatever.tar.gz
[03:02] <lusepuster> if it's not a .tar.gz but just a .gz, use gunzip filename
[03:02] <ManualOverDozer8> cgreen check your messages, maybe that will help
[03:02] <lucent> I wish I could take donations, I know solutions to maybe 40% of problems here
[03:02] <Johnny> nm-applet doesnt connect
[03:02] <mlLK> ok so aptitude runs deb as well?
[03:02]  * lucent  =o)
[03:02] <Johnny> it just keeps swirling
[03:02] <Sindacious> fde, it's a sql.gz :/
[03:02] <Sylphid> I have tk8.5 installed to fill the xchat dependancy for tk8.4 but it shows xchat as a broken package without tk8.4 installed ... how can I fix this without installing tk8,4 (it breaks some scripts)
[03:02] <fde> Sindacious: you need the z tar option for gzip files...
[03:02] <Johnny> both dots are green
[03:03] <mlLK> unless optioned
[03:03] <fde> Sindacious: eh, then gunzip
[03:03] <nickelodiun> lucent help me out
[03:03] <lusepuster> Sindacious, gunzip
[03:03] <Tetrohead> i can't get my trash bin ahh!!!
[03:03] <mlLK> where does deb store apps?
[03:03] <nickelodiun> I will paypal you
[03:03] <mlLK> as sudo
[03:03] <fde> Tetrohead: You removed it from the panel?
[03:03] <Kohlrak> cgreen, it's alot like javascript, only a little more detail is needed for the code. Google "C tutorial" and chances are one of the first links will be enough to learn C. Then it's a matter of using printf and scanf
[03:03] <Tetrohead> i dragged it off desktop somehow
[03:03] <Sindacious> lusepuster, gzip: backup_1217058161_4e4d589fcb5688d0.sql.gz: unexpected end of file
[03:03] <lucent> nickelodiun: no kidding?  hm.   I'll help you anyways
[03:03] <bartek> Ok..enabling the ati accelerated drivers was a BAD idea
[03:03] <bahaa> hi guys
[03:04] <Tetrohead> fde: tried gconf-editor. didn't work
[03:04] <bahaa> wanna to ask about installing a package
[03:04] <lusepuster> Sindacious, hmmm.... Can't give you an explanation to that, sorry...
[03:04] <fde> mlLK: /var/lib/dpkg/ is where most of its info is...  Flash is horrible.
[03:05] <ManualOverDozer8> fde did you get flash running on hardy ?
[03:05] <fde> ManualOverDozer8: yes
[03:05] <alraun1> cxo: as far I can see you can try to install a minimal text-based system for a first boot and then gould chenge sources.list to a (local) ftp server...
[03:05] <Tetrohead> fde: also tried "Keep Aligned"
[03:05] <ManualOverDozer8> what version please ?
[03:05] <Dunas> Quick, what's the command to install the Nvidia GUI Control Panel?
[03:06] <fde> Tetrohead: "Clean up by name"?
[03:06] <ManualOverDozer8> i tried through SPM and it took forever, only to find, it doesnt work
[03:06] <Tetrohead> Dunas: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[03:07] <alraun1> Dunas: try envy
[03:07] <Tetrohead> fde: got it, thanks. can't believe i didn't try that hahaha
[03:07] <chao1> Someone needs to update the ubottu's information on how to install Limewire. Limewire has a .deb now
[03:07] <Dunas> Envy?
[03:07] <Ahadiel> chao1, Frostwire is open source.
[03:08] <alraun1> Dunas: (nick!) ...is an automatic installation tool for ATI/Nvidia chips
[03:08] <fde> chao1: try !frostwire is <what you think it should say>
[03:08] <fde> chao1: Or if it's a wiki page, just sign up and edit it.
[03:08] <Dunas> (nick!)?
[03:09] <ManualOverDozer8> fde i may have missed it, but what version flash you get working, and/or method of install ?
[03:09] <fde> ManualOverDozer8: 9.0.120-something I think is what was in hardy... I'm using intrepid atm... it has flash 10
[03:09] <qwm> i've had enough of these rascals!
[03:10] <ManualOverDozer8> fde: i have 10.x in now, and it doesnt work, i will try 9.x
[03:10] <alraun1> Dunas: (nick!) type my nick if u answer, otherwise its going under in the other replies |  apt-get install  envyng-core envyng-qt envyng-gtk
[03:11] <fde> Dunas: note you likely only want one of -qt or -gtk ... depending on the desktop you use
[03:12] <bartek> Does anyone know why the accelerated driver would cause my screens to not work? They get shut off as soon as I hit the login screen

[03:20] <yoyoned> sivel27: use pastbin
[03:20] <ejsilver26> I've been trying to find a "fix" or solution online all night. Any help is appreciated.
[03:20] <Yhapster> hey guys, what's the best option for running WinXP virtualized in Hardy?
[03:20] <sivel27> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/30739/
[03:20] <sivel27> thats from one of the text files priv8.txt
[03:20] <sivel27> heres another one
[03:20] <Yhapster> my gf wants to watch some show online, and it's DRM-encumber
[03:21] <alraun1> indra  first you should backup the old file, then sudo gedit ...xorg.conf
[03:21] <yoyoned> ejsilver26: did you run make config
[03:21] <ejsilver26> yoyoned: make menuconfig, yes.
[03:22] <namelestheone> hello
[03:22] <guren> hello
[03:22] <sivel27> heres go1.txt
[03:22] <sivel27> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/30740/
[03:22] <namelestheone> what is this chat room for
[03:22] <lucent> Yhapster: depending on what you want?
[03:22] <Blaqlight> sivel27: just the filenames themeselves lend towards highly suspicious.
[03:23] <sivel27> yup
[03:23] <giacomo> what is the default gnome sound manager?
[03:23] <alraun1>  ! offtopic |namelestheone
[03:23] <Yhapster> lucent: she just needs to run a copy of Firefox in Windows, so the Windows Media plugin will load up and play her show.
[03:23] <alraun1>  !offtopic |namelestheone
[03:23] <sivel27> the person erased my bash history, but left the few commands where they perled all four of the files
[03:23] <namelestheone> ??
[03:23] <lucent> Yhapster: so you need sound, and native speed
[03:24] <lucent> Yhapster: WINE won't do it ?
[03:24] <giacomo> what is the default sound manager for gnome?
[03:24] <lucent> I don't know
[03:24] <sivel27> thats all chinese to me, and im wondering if its running in the background or something
[03:24] <lucent> giacomo: Pulse Audio lately
[03:24] <Yhapster> lucent: yeah, exactly. i used to use VMWare server for this, but i think it'd be overkill
[03:24] <bartek> Quick question .. in the BinaryDriverHowto located here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#head-02330ccb580b6a9411d32bf617cc5a82116ba6b9
[03:24] <giacomo> like, for the system tray?
[03:24] <alraun1> ubuntu support is the channels theme namelestheone
[03:24] <Yhapster> lucent: will WINE run IE 7.0 with Windows Media Player?
[03:24] <bartek> It states "Enable accelerated the accelerated ATI graphics driver in the restricted-manager, then do: " ... where is this restricted-manager?
[03:24] <ejsilver26> yoyoned: I have been googling all afternoon trying to find similar issues. I came across about 10-15 entries, followed them all. I've re-downloaded and un-tar'd the thing a dozen times.
[03:25] <namelestheone> is this a help chat
[03:25] <lucent> Yhapster: oh... yeah I forgot you said WMP
[03:25] <Yhapster> lucent: at least i think it is. either that, or a silverlight-based player, one of the two. either way, it's Microsoft DRM, that I know for sure
[03:26] <alraun1> namelestheone: yup
[03:26] <namelestheone> oh ok cool
[03:26] <Yhapster> lucent: so.... what's my option for virtualization? virtualbox, qemu, kvm...? or back to vmware?
[03:26] <Blaqlight> sivel27: is this on a windows machine?
[03:27] <sivel27> nope, ubu 8.04
[03:27] <lucent> Yhapster: I've tried KVM extensively, this laptop has a core2duo with the VT extension.  I helped submit some bug reports and stuff.  Estimated time to screw around and make it work is about 7 hours ( including an install of winxpsp2 )
[03:27] <namelestheone> ok i got a question then when i went to reinstall ubuntu on my comp i got a busy boy error
[03:27] <lucent> Yhapster: sound works, but networking is a lot trickier
[03:27] <Yhapster> lucent: wow, ok, don't really wanna spend 7 hours. i think vmware was faster than that. and this laptop isn't Core2 w/ VT. Mine at home is.
[03:28]  * Joeb454 leaving - need sleep, later
[03:28] <TehRikard> Hi guys. I'm a fresh Ubuntu user. I'm working on installing some drivers. My first driver is the NVIDIA video card. I can't run the RPM from init 1 because it can't download a file it needs during hte installation, and if I kill gdm, my box locks hard.
[03:28] <alraun1> Yhapster:I'd try vmware, but as u need usb (??) for player/phone, the freee verson would't do it
[03:28] <Blaqlight> sivel27: yah those are very suspicious. I would dsudo apt0get install firestarter and start it.
[03:28] <sivel27> the 3rd file is rm.txt and this is the code.:
[03:28] <sivel27> !/usr/bin/perl
[03:28] <sivel27> exec("rm -rf *siti* && rm rm.txt");
[03:28] <TehRikard> Basically I need to kill x windows so I can install this video driver :(
[03:28] <lucent> Yhapster: if you don't have VT extensions, then it is pretty horridly slow
[03:28] <lucent> Yhapster: it's just qemu then
[03:28] <Yhapster> alraun1: why do i need USB?
[03:29] <sivel27> whats firestarter?
[03:29] <namelestheone> can any one help
[03:29] <Yhapster> lucent: qemu > virtualbox?
[03:29] <TehRikard> Anybody? How do I kill X-Windows to install these nvidia drivers that keep telling me X has to be shutdown?
[03:29] <havocstorm> hey guys
[03:29] <ejsilver26> sivel27: firestarter is a firewall.
[03:29] <Blaqlight> sivel27: it gets a file from the internet and then connects to an irc network.
[03:29] <havocstorm> anyone know how to add programs to ubuntu startup?
[03:29] <alraun1> Yhapster:didn't u say u wanted to connect a player ? or was a phone ?
[03:29] <havocstorm> sivel27: firestarter is an excellent firewall
[03:29] <cxo> TehRikard, logoff, hit ctl+alt+f1, login , install
[03:29] <lucent> Yhapster: I'm thinking more along the lines of suggesting that you get a 2nd computer just for Windows
[03:30] <TehRikard> ty cxo
[03:30] <lucent> Yhapster: an old laptop or something?
[03:30] <sap>  Hi, I just copied video from a camcorder to my computer and now it is in .avi format . The file size is ~ 12 GB and I want to burn the video to a 4.4 GB dvd . I was trying to find out an option in K3b to convert/compress to a suitable format but could not find anything.  Any recommendations ? or perhaps another program etc ? :)
[03:30] <guido_>  I'm trying to fix KDM, whenever I try to close a session or restart the computer it hangs and I have to kill it from another terminal. Any thoughts?
[03:30] <cxo> TehRikard, woops one more step, "init 3" before you install
[03:30] <TehRikard> I'm also having an issue with a lot of missing drivers.
[03:30] <Yhapster> lucent: won't go over well with the GF.
[03:30] <sivel27> what does the file do? from the irc channel? is there any way to allow local network only with this firewall?
[03:30] <Blaqlight> firestarter is a gui front-end for iptables.
[03:30] <Yhapster> alraun1: nope, just trying to watch a TV show online on CTV.ca
[03:30] <cxo> TehRikard, then "init 5" to get back
[03:30] <lucent> sap: oh, there's not an easy GUI that I can think of
[03:30] <TehRikard> tyvm cxo.
[03:30] <lucent> sap: you want to split, or just compress?
[03:31] <TehRikard> Anyway, I'm having an issue with a lot of missing mainboard drivers.
[03:31] <Yhapster> lucent: and I'm trying to get the GF to like Ubuntu
[03:31] <TehRikard> USB, that jazz.
[03:31] <sap> lucent, hmm.. compress.. because I just want to put it all on one dvd
[03:31] <TehRikard> Any suggestions on how to fix this? I don't see much on ASUS website regarding Linux drivers
[03:31] <cxo> jazz
[03:31] <alraun1> Yhapster:didn't get it right then, sry
[03:31] <guido_> sap: you should find some avi to divx converter, try googling that
[03:31] <sap> lucent, I wouldnt mind a CLI program  as long as I can run a command or two for conversion
[03:31] <lucent> sap: it's really, hairy
[03:32] <cxo> TehRikard, really? are you sure?
[03:32] <Blaqlight> sivel27: if you install firestarter it should block that file or any others from getting out to the internet without your permission
[03:32] <Blaqlight> !iptables | sivel
[03:32] <sap> guido_,  hmm.. okay but i suspect most of them would be windows based
[03:32] <TehRikard> hm, lxo, even after logging out and ctrl alt f1, init 3, it still says im running an x server
[03:32] <lucent> Yhapster: well, iPod devices work with Rhythmbox now
[03:32] <lucent> that's a start
[03:32] <lucent> and the bird is pretty
[03:32] <sivel27> excellent, im installing now
[03:32] <lucent> women love that bird artwork (can I say that?!)
[03:32] <TehRikard> When using an iPod with Rhythmbox, make SURE you eject/dismount.
[03:32]  * lucent waits for fembots to mow him down
[03:32] <TehRikard> I wiped my ipod twice not dismounting.
[03:33] <cxo> TehRikard, ctl+alt+f1 is a key combo, that will drop you into a shell, did you get it?
[03:33] <Yhapster> lol
[03:33] <lucent> TehRikard: good to know :|
[03:33] <TehRikard> Yep.
[03:33] <Blaqlight> sivel27: also you might want to make your root password alot stronger :P
[03:33] <smultron> what does a plus sign mean at the end of permissions? -rw-rw----+
[03:33] <Yhapster> most things work. just this one thing. ok thanks guys, off to do QEMU install
[03:33] <TehRikard> I logged in as root.
[03:33] <TehRikard> init 3'd
[03:33] <TehRikard> and tried to sh the .run
[03:33] <TehRikard> got into the installer
[03:33] <cxo> yeah
[03:33] <TehRikard> and it told me x was still up
[03:33] <FloodBot1> TehRikard: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:33] <cxo> wtf
[03:33] <guido_> sap: try adding linux as keyword... "avi to divx converter linux"
[03:33] <dubby> hey anyone
[03:34] <lucent> Yhapster: look into "virt-manager"
[03:34] <havocstorm> hey
[03:34] <sap> guido_, umm.. okay
[03:34] <Blaqlight> !hi | dubby
[03:34] <dubby> im trying install ubuntu
[03:34] <havocstorm> does anyone know how to add programs to ubuntu startup?
[03:34] <dubby> on a raid device
[03:34] <sivel27> heres a couple of quick qs- this box is my stroage server, and torrent box, can i set up firestarter to allow those progs?
[03:34] <lucent> Yhapster: it's a front-end gui for managing libvirtd controlled vt stuff, like qemu, kvm, xen
[03:34] <dubby> yet i cannot see my raid device anywhere
[03:34] <z4w3p> ...
[03:34] <guido_> sap: yeah, I know.. it's a long shot.. but there's bound to be one out there
[03:34] <dubby> but instead the drives that comprise it
[03:34] <TehRikard> Anyone? I can NOT figure out how to kill X to install these nvidia drivers :(
[03:34] <dubby> anyone know how to get raid devices working?
[03:34] <lucent> havocstorm: System | Preferences| Sessions
[03:35] <Bonster> havocstorm: sys>perf>session
[03:35] <cxo> TehRikard, try init 2, then
[03:35] <dubby> TehRikard : synaptic can do it for you
[03:35] <Blaqlight> sivel27: it will do whatever you tell it.
[03:35] <havocstorm> lucent, bonster, thanks
[03:35] <sap> guido_, another thing i think might be a hindrance is I probably dont want to burn it in divx format lest it refuses to play on a dvd player
[03:35] <cxo> TehRikard, and give it a sec or two, you might see some messages on the screen
[03:35] <havocstorm> lucent, bonster, hmm, what do I type in the commands?
[03:35] <obidiah> havocstorm: do you have an init script to add?
[03:35] <Blaqlight> it being a torrentbox is prolly why it got hacked in the first place to be frank with you.
[03:35] <guido_> TehRikard: the nvidia drivers from the website? try the ones from synaptic or apt-get..
[03:35] <havocstorm> lucent, bonster, hmm, just to run a program I guess
[03:35] <TehRikard> Synaptic has drivers? Mmm.
[03:35] <lucent> havocstorm: I have no idea
[03:36] <havocstorm> obidiah, just to run a program
[03:36] <lucent> havocstorm: I rarely ever turn off this computer or log out
[03:36] <dubby> anyone with raid devices ?
[03:36] <obidiah> havocstorm: /etc/rc.local
[03:36] <alraun1> TehRikard:tried envy ?
[03:36] <TehRikard> Whats envy?
[03:36] <guido_> sap: how old would the dvd player in question be? as far as I know, most can play divx
[03:36] <cxo> dubby, i have raid
[03:36] <lucent> dubby: softraid, halfraid, or hard raid?
[03:36] <havocstorm> obidiah, is that the command to run a program?
[03:36] <dubby> ? well i set it up from bios
[03:36] <obidiah> it is a text file
[03:36] <alraun1> TehRikard:automatic driver installer for ATI/Nvidia
[03:36] <lucent> dubby: probably won't work
[03:36] <lusepuster> lucent, thanks for your help before regarding the sudoers list problem. Found out wha my problem was; someone had given me wrong instructions for using usermod, so I'd removed myself from the admin group...
[03:36] <lucent> lusepuster: ouch
[03:36] <obidiah> it runs as a batch file at startup
