[17:48] <iceroot> skybinder: by chatting in #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:48] <Krauser_> Dr_Willis, is this ok ? ::: -->>   */10 * * * * root  php -q /var/www/panel/cron.php
[17:48] <whileimhere> I am creating a MAME machine and I really do not want a full blown XFCE or UBUNTU. It would be a waste of space and resources. Suggestions?
[17:48] <MindVirus> n8tuser: debfoster is what I was looking for.
[17:48] <iceroot> whileimhere: removing it
[17:48] <LjL> oorah: a number or address that just plays back what you say.
[17:48] <whileimhere> iceroot?
[17:48] <shivek> hi all
[17:48] <iceroot> whileimhere: you dont want xfce4 or gnome?
[17:49] <Halitech> whileimhere, do a minimal install and add what you want/need
[17:49] <n8tuser> MindVirus -> okay, ill take a note of that tool, thanks
[17:49] <timboy> n8tuser, typing echo -n 150 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/sensitivity in root console works fine. where can I put it to make it happen on startup?
[17:49] <iceroot> whileimhere: or you want xfce4 instead of xubuntu-desktop?
[17:49] <shivek> where can I get more info about ubuntu karmic (I need full details, added stuff and all)
[17:49] <whileimhere> iceroot: Once I have Wah!Cade and AdvMAME up and running I will not need a desktop at all. I would directly want to boot into Wah!Cade.
[17:49] <n8tuser> timboy -> what if on startup that file does not exist?
[17:49] <rafaelinux> buenas
[17:49] <LjL> !karmi | shivek
[17:49] <LjL> !karmic | shivek
[17:49] <LjL> !es | rafaelinux
[17:49] <rafaelinux> algún español??

[17:50] <Krauser_> hi is this in /etc/crontab ok ?  */10 * * * * root  php -q /var/www/panel/cron.php
[17:50] <skybinder> as i said i need to play tv online but can't a bit, a have vlc installed what can i do more, plz
[17:50] <timboy> n8tuser, I want to do it after that file exists. it has to get created at some runlevel...
[17:50] <whileimhere> iceroot: Fluxbox with a very minimal filemanager would be okay.
[17:50] <rafaelinux> Thank ;)
[17:50] <llutz> zer0byte: smartcam it is, smartcam.sf.net
[17:50] <iceroot> whileimhere: then install fluxbox and remove (x)ubuntu-desktop
[17:50] <n8tuser> timboy -> then have on your script check if that file exist before adding to it?
[17:50] <shivek> LjL >>> I know its ubuntu 9.10. Isn't there any official website for it ??
[17:50] <whileimhere> iceroot: That sounds like a good idea.
[17:51] <LjL> shivek: #ubuntu+1 should know
[17:51] <Halitech> whileimhere, instead of installing everything and then removing what you don't want why not just do a minimal install and add what you want?
[17:51] <whileimhere> Halitech I do not have a CD burner.
[17:51] <shivek> LjL >>> I know that !
[17:52] <zer0byte> llutz, thanks
[17:52] <whileimhere> I have  USB thumbdrive for installation.
[17:52] <LjL> shivek: then why ar you asking *here*?
[17:52] <Halitech> whileimhere, you could still set it up to boot the minimal install and go from there
[17:52] <shivek> LjL >>>OOpps! sorry
[17:53] <whileimhere> halitech how?
[17:53] <bobo> before i format my computer, i copied the whole mail directory from .evolution, after the installation i copied back and i got all my messages back, but now when i do send/receive i don't see my new messages, what do i do?
[17:53] <Halitech> whileimhere, same way you would set it up with the full install but use the iso for the minimal install
[17:54] <whileimhere> halitech: I do not have a CD burner and it seems that I cannot use the imagewriter to write it to my thumbdrive.
[17:54] <Halitech> bobo, did you reconfigure a mail account?
[17:54] <luis_> hello, does anyones knows how to check ur email account in by the terminal
[17:54] <Halitech> whileimhere, how are you going to install (x)ubuntu then?
[17:54] <MK13> is there any thing like http://www.autohotkey.com/ for ubuntu?
[17:54] <whileimhere> someone gave me a burned copy of Xubuntu
[17:54] <bobo> Halitech, how do you mean?, after the format i created the same account again, and after that i copied the folder back
[17:54] <whileimhere> So I have a regular non-burner to install with
[17:55] <Halitech> bobo, did it create a new folder for evolution and did you copy the old files into that folder?
[17:55] <mgv1> i hate i cant figiured out how to use airocrack
[17:56] <Eevee> MK13: you can bind keys in Compiz to run whatever you want, and you can generally write shell scripts to automate whatever you want
[17:56] <mgv1> now im not on the computer anyway
[17:56] <bobo> Halitech, i think it created new folder, and after that i merged the folder
[17:56] <Halitech> whileimhere, ok, you didn't mention that, you just said you were trying it with a thumbdrive .... there might be an option on the xubuntu cd to do a minimal install
[17:56] <whileimhere> halitech never thought of that!
[17:56] <MK13> eevee, k thought so
[17:56] <Halitech> bobo, so you see the old emails but not the new ones?
[17:56] <MK13> Eevee, thnx
[17:57] <MarderIII> luis_: telnet <host> 110 <return> USER <password><return> PASS <password> <return> <LIST> ... or something :-)
[17:57] <bobo> Halitech, just like that
[17:57] <Halitech> whileimhere, been awhile since I've used the xubuntu cd so might have to look around for that option, might also depend if its the alt cd or the live cd
[17:58] <Halitech> bobo, permissions issue with the old files maybe?
[17:58] <whileimhere> halitech I think its the live cx
[17:58] <whileimhere> cd
[17:58] <Mr_Giraffe> hey, a GTK+ theme I'm using (Elegant Brit) is making the menus in some Java apps unreadable. Is there any way I can fix this?
[17:58] <bobo> Halitech, so what kind of permissions should i put 666?
[17:58] <Halitech> whileimhere, ok, check the boot options when the initial screen comes up
[17:59] <Halitech> bobo, they need to have the same ownership as the new user has
[17:59] <Mr_Giraffe> barring, of course, changing the theme
[17:59] <whileimhere> halitech I will thanks for the idea!
[17:59] <Halitech> whileimhere, np, hope it works
[17:59] <bobo> Halitech, so what should i do?
[17:59] <MarderIII> luis_: but i think you want a program like mutt or pine
[18:00] <Halitech> bobo, try creating a new file, check the ownership info and compare that to your old mail files
[18:00] <Halitech> MarderIII, nothing like going old school to check your mail ;)
[18:00] <MarderIII> Malitech: :-D
[18:01] <megabraker> bye evry one
[18:03] <skybinder> help plz to make firefox play online tv i have vlc and flash player installed but it plays just a little
[18:05] <Neremor> hello!
[18:05] <MarderIII> Malitech: I'm suprised I even remembered those POP3 commands..
[18:06] <sweetleaf> æ
[18:06] <Neremor> I found this list of dvd-rippers http://bit.ly/1847lY, but which ripper would you suggest me to use? which do you think is the best one?
[18:07] <graingert> ps
[18:07] <Halitech> MarderIII, I had to use them just last week, used to use them daily when I did tech support, surprising what comes back when you need it
[18:09] <dev_n00b> Why am I at the PC running windows, and naked?
[18:09] <MarderIII> Malitech: tech support... yechh! glad to have left that behind :-X
[18:09] <MarderIII> Malitech: altough... what am i doing here? :-)
[18:09] <Dr_Willis> dev_n00b:  those pesky EULA's get you every time!
[18:11] <Halitech> MarderIII, so am I, did it for almost 10 years ... because you want to give back to the community :)
[18:12] <MarderIII> Halitech: ...should fix my fonts... read H as M?... not good...  Something like that :)
[18:12] <Halitech> MarderIII, maybe you just need to get your eyes checked ;)
[18:13] <MarderIII> Halitech: Maybe.. %-)
[18:13] <quentusrex> How do I find out which release a box has installed?
[18:13] <quentusrex> from the command line
[18:14] <quentusrex> lsb_release says there are no lsb modules installed
[18:15] <LjL> quentusrex: lsb_release -a
[18:15] <MindVirus> Does APT depend on dialog?
[18:15] <LjL> MindVirus: well, you could check that with "apt-cache depends apt", but i think so
[18:15] <MindVirus> LjL: it doesn't, which is the scary part.
[18:15] <MindVirus> I don't want to believe it.
[18:16] <LjL> MindVirus: it does
[18:16] <MindVirus> That's why I asked here.
[18:16] <LjL> MindVirus: apt-cache --recurse depends apt | grep dialog
[18:16] <apps> 8-)
[18:16] <MindVirus> LjL: oh goodness.
[18:17] <MindVirus> LjL: how is it that I can remove dialog without removing any other packages?
[18:18] <MindVirus> LjL: http://pastebin.com/d4d0949ec
[18:18] <LjL> MindVirus: alright i need to research this a bit better
[18:19] <MindVirus> Furthermore, how is it that one of the packages I have installed conflicts with dialog?
[18:19] <MindVirus> Hmm...
[18:19] <LjL> MindVirus: i think the thing is that you can use other alternatives to dialog. but there should be a multiple depends *somewhere*
[18:20] <MindVirus> I'm not using any alternatives to dialog AFAIK (but then again I don't know any).
[18:20] <MindVirus> Anything I should check?
[18:20] <LjL> MindVirus: ah, there is
[18:20] <LjL> MindVirus: apt-cache depends debconf
[18:21] <LjL> whiptail | dialog | gnome-utils  all provide dialog-like things
[18:21] <MindVirus> It conflicts with dialog.
[18:21] <LjL> what does?
[18:21] <MindVirus> And with apt.
[18:21] <MindVirus> debconf.
[18:21] <MindVirus> WTF?!
[18:21] <LjL> ?
[18:21] <LjL> debconf can't conflict with apt
[18:21] <MindVirus> I know!
[18:22] <LjL> do you have mixed versions of stuff by any chance?
[18:22] <MindVirus> I should not at all.
[18:22] <MindVirus> http://pastebin.com/d7e3f51b0
[18:22] <MindVirus> How can it suggest and conflict with dialog at the same time?
[18:22] <LjL> MindVirus: ah no sorry
[18:23] <LjL> MindVirus: my bad idea to use the "depends" command. use apt-cache show debconf
[18:23] <LjL> it's just specifying a versionnumber
[18:23] <serban> hello
[18:23] <MindVirus> LjL: ahh.
[18:23] <serban> is there any way to customize the notifications in ubuntu 9.04 ?
[18:23] <MindVirus> LjL: So I don't need debconf?
[18:23] <MindVirus> I mean.
[18:23] <LjL> MindVirus: still the slightly worrying thng is that dialog and its friends are just a Suggests
[18:23] <MindVirus> Dialog?
[18:23] <MindVirus> Yes.
[18:24] <MindVirus> Should I file a bug?
[18:24] <FloodBot2> MindVirus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:24] <LjL> MindVirus: well, i'd think you need *either* dialog or whiptail or gnome-utils...
[18:24] <LjL> MindVirus: i don't know. maybe it'll just fall back to Y/N questions at the console with printf
[18:24] <MindVirus> LjL: then it should be Depends: dialog || whiptail || gnome-utils.
[18:24] <LjL> MindVirus: but i'm not going to try (removing dialog, that is)
[18:25] <MindVirus> LjL: sometimes you need a choice of things which that can't handle.
[18:26] <LjL> MindVirus: well, but it *is* somewhere. i don't know where, but somewhere
[18:26] <LjL> MindVirus: because if i remove dialog, it doesn't bring anything with it; if i remove whiptail, neither; but if i attempt to remove both, all hell breaks loose
[18:26] <LjL> (i don't have gnome-utils)
[18:27] <makmum> help me pleease
[18:27] <MindVirus> LjL: good observation.
[18:27] <Halitech> !help | makmum
[18:28] <LjL> MindVirus: admittedly, though, neither "apt" nor "debconf" appear to be part of said hell.
[18:28] <void_pointer> !id | makmum
[18:28] <MindVirus> LjL: there is where we differ!
[18:29] <makmum> okey brother Halitech n Ubottu, how to activate 3d on via chrome9 hc igp?
[18:29] <MindVirus> LjL: removing whiptail destroys ubuntu-minimal.
[18:29] <xddw> can someone help me install ices0
[18:29] <LjL> MindVirus: yes, it does that for me too
[18:29] <izzaboo> I'm sure my problem's been encountered b4.  but I've not found a *solution*.  new install, dual boot w/XP on Acer Aspire One D250.  I am only prompted with two options, the install side-by-side option is not present.
[18:29] <MindVirus> LjL: so whiptail is preferred apparently.
[18:29] <LjL> MindVirus: still, that's a rather weak dependency
[18:29] <MindVirus> LjL: what?
[18:29] <MindVirus> ubuntu-minimal?
[18:29] <izzaboo> it was there when I was demo-ing the LiveUSB stick to my dad on his 8.9" AAO.
[18:29] <LjL> MindVirus: yeah. i wouldn't leave it up to a metapackage
[18:30] <LjL> MindVirus: i'd still be of the opinion that debconf itself should depend on it (unless there's something else we're missng)
[18:30] <izzaboo> anyone here run into this and/or seen a solution online anywhere?
[18:30] <MindVirus> LjL: I'm thinking about removing dialog now.
[18:30] <Halitech> makmum, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=967198&highlight=Chrome9
[18:30] <LjL> MindVirus: i'm not. maybe if i had a virtual machine on my hands...
[18:30] <izzaboo> using 9.04 install
[18:31] <xddw> hallo, someone has to have ices0 :)
[18:32] <makmum> okey Halitech
[18:32] <nicklas_> huj
[18:32] <Halitech> makmum, hope you aren't setting your hopes on doing it though, chrome9 cards suck in regards to 3d, lucky to have 2d
[18:33] <MindVirus> LjL: dialog is ugly and it doesn't seem like I've ever seen it.
[18:33] <MindVirus> I think debconf defaults to whiplash.
[18:33] <MindVirus> I mean.
[18:33] <MindVirus> whiptail.
[18:33] <LjL> MindVirus: wut? it's not dialog?
[18:34] <MindVirus> I guess not.
[18:34] <LjL> MindVirus: ah, uh yes
[18:34] <LjL> MindVirus: well remove whiptail then!
[18:34] <LjL> if you're brave
[18:34] <MindVirus> No!
[18:34] <MindVirus> I like whiptail.
[18:34] <MindVirus> I'm just pruning orphans.
[18:34] <LjL> by hand?
[18:34] <MindVirus> Negatory.
[18:35] <MindVirus> As dialog is an orphan that seems important, I stopped in here.
[18:35] <LjL> i see
[18:35] <MindVirus> But I guess it's not.
[18:35] <izzaboo> okay.  y'all are too busy?
[18:35] <makmum> Halitech : owh
[18:35] <MindVirus> !question
[18:35] <Halitech> makmum, is it a desktop or a laptop?
[18:36] <makmum> laptop. with sabily linux
[18:36] <void_pointer> izzaboo, ask again
[18:36] <pbn> Hi, I'm trying to (re)configure the locales on some Ubuntu machine. On Debian GNU/Linux "dpkg-reconfigure locales" brings me a dialog that allows me to choose which locales are generated, but on Ubuntu "dpkg-reconfigure locales" doesn't bring me that dialog. How can I (re)configure the locales ?
[18:36] <MindVirus> LjL: thanks for your help.
[18:36] <Halitech> makmum, ok, no way to change the graphics card then
[18:37] <MindVirus> I'll stop back in here if my computer explodes.
[18:37] <Guest16518> Anyone can direct me to a channel for real real real 'noobs in ubuntu from windows'?
[18:37] <void_pointer> ZooK, you have the right place
[18:37] <macdonalder> quick question... I've got netboot set up and I'm preseeding new installs of ubuntu. We just got new ASUS boards that have an attansic gigabit ethernet controller but it's not recognized by the kernel. When I throw in another card I and install it's fine and when the OS finally boots on its own the newer kernel it installs picks up the onboard attansic device just fine. Presumably the netboot kernel is out of date, but I think
[18:37] <macdonalder> I'm using the latest one. Is there anything newer than what's in the hardy repos (yes, I'm using hardy) and if not, what's the process for building support for that device into the netboot kernel?
[18:37] <void_pointer> ZooK,  just ask
[18:37] <izzaboo> i'm missing the side-by-side option in the Install app.  Acer Aspire One D250.  Wanting to install for dual boot.  heh.  @guest16518, me too!
[18:38] <void_pointer> izzaboo, side by side? Dual boot?
[18:38] <zalincognito> I have an HDX18 laptop, and from the beginning I haven't been able to get sound to come out of anything but the headphone jack. Anyone know a solution for this?
[18:39] <izzaboo> in the Install app I was expecting three options for answering the Question Where do you want to put Ubuntu 9.04?  I only have two.
[18:39] <izzaboo> I see Use entire disk or Specify partitions manually
[18:39] <void_pointer> izzaboo, well, I'm flying blind - it's been a while since I installed from scratch. But that sounds right. What was the other option you wanted?
[18:39] <Halitech> izzaboo, is it under manual?
[18:40] <ZooK> anyone know a site which explains really really simply yet effectively how to change users in ubuntu so that i can access root folder?
[18:40] <Halitech> !root | ZooK
[18:40] <izzaboo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOneAOD250  indicated there should be a side-by-side option...
[18:40] <void_pointer> ZooK, what is it you want to do?
[18:40] <makmum1> Halitech: are 9:04 Support driver via chrome?
[18:41] <ZooK> someone gave me ubuntu laptop
[18:41] <ZooK> so ineed to backup some stuff
[18:41] <izzaboo> halitech, under Manual it just allows me to edit partitions...
[18:41] <ZooK> mainlytransfer stuff to external
[18:41] <zalincognito> I have an HDX18 laptop, and from the beginning I haven't been able to get sound to come out of anything but the headphone jack. Anyone know a solution for this?
[18:41] <ZooK> thanks halitech
[18:42] <Halitech> ZooK, then you just need to change the permissions on the drive, not use root
[18:42] <jimmy51_> how does ubuntu support the latest HP Smart Array controllers?  does HP provide drivers?
[18:42] <Halitech> makmum1, no idea, not very well if they do from what I've read
[18:42] <void_pointer> Halitech,  you're going to have to slow down a little, and find out what the newbs are actually trying to do ;)
[18:42] <izzaboo> void_pointer, using the same USBStick I used a month ago to talk my dad into installing Ubuntu on his 8.9" AAO.  *then* I saw the third option.  *now* I don't.
[18:42] <Neremor>  which is the most common codex for video files right now? divx or xvid or anything else?

[18:43] <Halitech> izzaboo, shrink your windows partition under windows first and then install to the empty partition
[18:43] <zalincognito> I have an HDX18 laptop, and from the beginning I haven't been able to get sound to come out of anything but the headphone jack. Anyone know a solution for this?
[18:43] <seidos> is there a difference?  :o
[18:43] <Bug-C> hi, I messed up my raid 5 (consisting of 6 discs). I am using Ubuntu and used mdadm to manually fail two devices. Then I recognized my error and added them again. Now mdadm recognizes these two discs only as spares. Is there any possibility that I can restore my raid array (that is explain to mdadm, that it should use these two devices are disc 5, 6 of the raid and not as spare)
[18:44] <izzaboo> anyone know of a channel or forum specific to Acer Aspire One Ubuntu?
[18:44] <Halitech> void_pointer, I still think of myself as a newb after 3 years :)
[18:44] <void_pointer> ZooK, you want to copy from the ubuntu root directory to another hard drive/device
[18:44]  * seidos thinks he'll be a newb forever
[18:44] <void_pointer> Halitech, heh, I'm at intermediate stage after 12 ;)
[18:44] <izzaboo> Halitech, i've only been using linux for half a year, I'm absolutely still a newb.  each new machine makes me a newb!

[18:49] <Ese> I'm trying to install ubuntu using unetbootin and the ubuntu mini.iso but I'm getting an error at the boot
[18:49] <McAku> kiitos avusta
[18:49] <jalonso> hey, anyone here ever tried to do Linux From Scratch install?
[18:50] <zalincognito> Okay, well thanks anyway everyone.
[18:50] <izzaboo> void_pointer, nope.  only two partitions on /dev/sda  1 & 2.  both ntfs.  one is the Visa loader??? ~7.5GB and the other is XP ~150GB
[18:50] <izzaboo> void_pointer, err, I mean Vista loader
[18:50] <void_pointer> izzaboo, ok, well you don't have a free partition to install onto. Hence, no 3rd option
[18:51] <trijntje> conde: what have you tried so far to get the printer working? (plz put my name in front of your awnser, so I see you are talking to me)
[18:51] <izzaboo> void_pointer, so I'd have to somehow rip off a chunk of the XP partition and reformat it?  is that possible without destroying current intsallation of XP??
[18:51] <archman> how can i force an app to appear in notification area instead of in taskbar?
[18:51] <sebsebseb> hi
[18:52] <jalonso> void_pointer: hey, void, were you in the LFS Irc chatroom just now??
[18:52] <void_pointer> izzaboo, well you'll have to shrink the partition. Don't jump into that just yet .. one sec
[18:52] <void_pointer> jalonso, yeah I was going to direct you there ;)
[18:53] <jalonso> void_pointer: ah, ok, unfortunately no one is answering :(
[18:53] <void_pointer> izzaboo, first choice (for you) do you have a windows utility you can use to shrink the partition
[18:53] <jalonso> void_pointer: thanks anyways :)
[18:53] <void_pointer> jalonso, i have done so, but a looong time ago. Sorry
[18:53] <jalonso> void_pointer: did you see it as a lost cause?
[18:53] <izzaboo> void_pointer, I've not installed one.  this is a fresh from the store AAO D250.  It is still freeeesssshhhh.  heheh
[18:54] <void_pointer> jalonso, not at all. Great learning experience
[18:54] <izzaboo> void_pointer, but I will look into that.  is there one you'd recommend?
[18:54] <void_pointer> izzaboo, allright. Well if you don't have something like "partition magic" for windows, you can use this guide --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=370598
[18:54] <jalonso> void_pointer: oh ok, well thats encouraging to here
[18:55] <jalonso> void_pointer: thanks for the pointers!  *pun*  :D~
[18:55] <izzaboo> btw, Acer's eRecovery seems a bit weak.  how does one use it when the machine won't boot from the backup/restore DVD it created???
[18:55] <izzaboo> if my HDD fails I'm hosed.  I wish I hadn't paid for this copy of XP!
[18:55] <void_pointer> jalonso, use references - safer ;)
[18:55] <void_pointer> izzaboo, they didn't supply a DVD?
[18:55] <jalonso> void_pointer: references? how do you mean?
[18:56] <void_pointer> jalonso, never mind. Programming "joke"
[18:56] <izzaboo> void_pointer, nope.  seems as if one must order it from them on line.  another 20USD!
[18:56] <jalonso> void_pointer: OHHH!  lol, I never was good at C++
[18:57] <void_pointer> izzaboo, cripes ... well, if it is a just installed/new installation you should be able to shrink it without losing anything
[18:57] <void_pointer> izzaboo, or affecting anything
[18:58] <izzaboo> void_pointer, ya.  I'm not afraid of losing any data.  I just don't want to lose my paid-for copy of XP (for various reasons).
[18:58] <void_pointer> izzaboo, well you can use a demo/trial copy of partition magic to shrink it
[18:58] <izzaboo> void_pointer, and they make it quite clear that if you wipe the whole drive their recovery system won't work....
[18:59] <izzaboo> void_pointer, partition magic.  I'll look into it.  thanks!
[18:59] <warriorforgod> izzaboo: Do you not have the license key for that copy of windows?
[18:59] <void_pointer> izzaboo, yeah, they are talking about that first partition, the "recovery" one
[18:59] <void_pointer> heh first thing I do is wipe the whole drive ... :)
[19:00] <izzaboo> warriorforged, you'd think I would!  I've not been able to find it on the machine or in the docs that came with it.  i suppose I need to call Acer...
[19:00] <void_pointer> izzaboo, if there isn't a trial version, look at this page --> http://www.optimizingpc.com/miscellaneous/resize_windowspartition.html
[19:00] <markit> any special IRC channel for "remix"?
[19:00] <warriorforgod> izzaboo: Try this.
[19:00] <warriorforgod> izzaboo: http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder/
[19:00] <warriorforgod> izzaboo: It should give you your license key.
[19:01] <izzaboo> lol, magicaljellybean.  I will look at both those sites, warriorforged & void_pointer.  thank you very much!
[19:01] <izzaboo> better go feed the little girl!  bbl maybe
[19:01] <Axsuul> which subversion client do i need to access a svn repository (I don't need the svn server)

[19:02] <jrib> Axsuul: subversion...
[19:06] <kevliu> Hi guys, what does man -k do? I read the man page and it says "Equivalent to apropos".
[19:06] <kevliu> I have no idea what that means...
[19:06] <macdonalder> does a keyword search
[19:06] <kevliu> Sorry, what?
[19:07] <macdonalder> man man? ;)
[19:07] <genii> kevliu: It searches for descriptions of something and not for the thing itself
[19:07] <kevliu> How is that useful?
[19:07] <waltman> I have an ubuntu box that I'd like to set up mail on.  I don't need to receive mail, but I'd like all outgoing mail to go through a smart host (the department's smtp server).  What's the easiest way to do that?
[19:08] <Stoy> I have a small but weird problem with Ubuntu 9.04 on my Dell Latitude E5400, whenever X goes
[19:08] <void_pointer> waltman, set it up in your email client. Outgoing server
[19:08] <waltman> postfix is installed, but it look like it was never configured.
[19:08] <genii> kevliu: Because you can search for something like: mail in nthe descriptions and get info on ALL the mail-related pages
[19:08] <alex__> hey guys, I had an ati card in then i put a better nvidia card in. now i cant seem to get the drivers to install. i have tried envy also
[19:08] <macdonalder> kevliu, if you'd like to know of other pages that reference a command, configuration file, function, etc.
[19:08] <kevliu> Hmmm.
[19:08] <kevliu> I see.
[19:08] <kevliu> So man -k malloc
[19:08] <Stoy> I have a small but weird problem with Ubuntu 9.04 on my Dell Latitude E5400, whenever X goes down, my screen starts to flicker, that is untill somthing user than just plain text comes on screen
[19:09] <kevliu> Will list all the man pages that reference the "malloc" keyboard?
[19:09] <waltman> void_pointer: The goal is to have php's mail() command use it.
[19:09] <jimcooncat> man -k encryption
[19:09] <jimcooncat> gpg (1)              - OpenPGP encryption and signing tool
[19:09] <jimcooncat> seahorse-tool (1)    - PGP/GnuPG file encryption for the GNOME Desktop
[19:09] <purpzey> alex__: Have you tried the restricted drivers manager?
[19:09] <void_pointer> waltman, you can still direct the php mail() call to use the SMTP server you want to use
[19:09] <waltman> So I see.  Thanks.
[19:09] <jimcooncat> kevliu: see my man -k encryption above
[19:09] <Pici> kevliu: apropos is also a terminal command.
[19:10] <Barnabas> or man -K
[19:10] <kevliu> Hmmm.
[19:10] <kevliu> I'm still not entirely clear on when I would use man -k <item>
[19:11] <void_pointer> waltman, but if you just want to set up postfix it's pretty easy
[19:11] <fccf> kevliu: the apropos man page gives discription of what man -k does
[19:11] <pvvni> if I want to change my tty text size
[19:11] <pvvni> I know I can do setterm
[19:11] <pvvni> but how can I make it default on startup
[19:11] <Pici> kevliu: When you're searching for a command to do 'something', man -k something.
[19:11] <jimcooncat> kevliu: like in my example, I wanted something that does encryption, but I didn't know which man page to look at
[19:11] <kevliu> Oh, okay.
[19:11] <pipa> whats the camand to change run level singel user, something like init 2??
[19:11] <kevliu> I think I'm starting to understand.
[19:11] <jrib> pipa: why?
[19:11] <testingsomestuff> Don't mind me .. testing something
[19:12] <Icemagic> hmm
[19:12] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: TEST
[19:12] <Icemagic> I need some helps guys
[19:12] <Icemagic> how do I get out of a channel =.=
[19:12] <kevliu> Thank you!
[19:12] <jrib> testingsomestuff: please test in a different channel
[19:12] <Eevee> Icemagic: /part #channel
[19:12] <jrib> Icemagic: depends on your client
[19:12] <Icemagic> it keeps coming back when I close it >.<
[19:12] <Icemagic> ah ok
[19:12] <pipa> coss I want to do a dpkg-reconfigure xorg!
[19:13] <jrib> pipa: so do it, you don't need to change to single user mode
[19:13] <fccf> testingsomestuff: please test in another channel as #ubuntu is very busy and is used for support not testing
[19:13] <pipa> uk thanks jrib
[19:13] <ectropy> guys, I'm trying to get my eeepc to show up on my mac. I can see my mac with my eeepc, but not vice versa. I'm running eeebuntu and snow leopard
[19:13] <void_pointer> waltman, the easiest way is just to put the right SMTP server into php.ini
[19:13] <waltman> does it need a sendmail command?
[19:13] <jrib> pipa: As a side note just so you know, runlevels 2-5 are identical in ubuntu/debian
[19:13] <Halitech> pipa, press ALT + CTRL + F2 and you will be in a new terminal log in
[19:14] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: How are you?
[19:14] <void_pointer> waltman, it needs a working email system to send through. So just adjust php.ini as necessary
[19:14] <Halitech> pipa, ALT + CTRL + F7 will bring you back
[19:14] <waltman> sendmail_path
[19:14] <void_pointer> waltman, no, just the SMTP setting
[19:14] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: Great :-)
[19:14] <pipa> ok thanks every one just not thinking..
[19:14] <waltman> so php's smart enough to get mail to a working remote smtp server without any email on its own local box?  cool.
[19:15] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: Thanks for the patch btw
[19:15] <fccf> waltman: php has a handler to sendmail
[19:15] <waltman> nice
[19:15] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: Oh well.. I'll see you
[19:16] <void_pointer> waltman, ah, you are on an ubuntu box wanting to do that?
[19:16] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: ping
[19:17] <fccf> waltman: /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/lib/sendmail
[19:17] <void_pointer> waltman, in which case, you'll need to install an MTA. Like postfix. The config will be minimal
[19:17] <heathkid> quick question... is it possible to pipe the output of "parted print" to a file?
[19:17] <hax404> where can i change my E-Mailadress in my launchpad-account?
[19:17] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: pong
[19:17] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: it's like 280 ms
[19:18] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: Way too much
[19:18] <testingsomestuff> carresmd: isn't it?
[19:18] <waltman> fccf: THAT'S WHAT I ASKED.
[19:18] <waltman> sigh
[19:19] <Tronic> What's the 9.10 irc channel?

[19:23] <void_pointer> waltman, what you aren't listening to is that you can have the MTA listening on the localhost or a remote machine
[19:23] <seidos> another place to look for start up apps in gnome aside from system -> prefs -> startup applications?

[19:37]  * Starenki spent twoo weeks to get B4311 working
[19:38]  * Starenki meens 4311 in paticular
[19:38] <valley> I use a broadcom card as well, and mine works ok. Potentially you need to ifconfig wlan0 down, then do the airomon wlan0 thing
[19:38] <larsemil> ok will try
[19:38] <valley> when using the broadcom that is. I havn't gotten it to work with atheros
[19:38] <SuperUser|David> how do i get c++ running with eclipse? i always get an error "Launching"

[19:41] <Robert_Zenz> I've copied a FAT32 partition from one harddisk to another, unfortunately these two now have the same UUID, how can I change this? I've found tune2fs for ext and similar fs, but nothing for FAT32.

[19:43] <macdonalder> ok, progress. I'll re-frame my questions. The atl1e module is missing from the hardy netboot initrd, how does one have it added?
[19:44] <genii> macdonalder: add it to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and rebuild the initrd
[19:45] <macdonalder> will that work for the netboot initrd as well? I had assumed it was tuned for netboot installs whereas the generic one wasn't (a call to the installer somewhere?)
[19:46] <Robert_Zenz> Does somebody know how to change the UUID of a FAT32 partition?

[19:50] <derik> i can install ubuntu on a ntfs drive?
[19:50] <Two4> yes
[19:51] <Two4> i think
[19:51] <Robert_Zenz> derik: you could, but it's most likely not the best idea.
[19:51] <valley> Is it only possible with wubi?
[19:51] <derik> i whant to share file with a windows machine
[19:51] <thiebaude> !wubi
[19:51] <Robert_Zenz> derik: NTFS is missing all rights-management features, which would render nearly everything useless.
[19:51] <tzafrir_laptop> Is this the place to ask about issues with packaging?
[19:51] <thiebaude> derik, its better to use a linux file system
[19:52] <tzafrir_laptop> I'm trying to build a certain Debian package of mine in a hardy chroot with pbuilder
[19:52] <valley> Ideally ext3 boot partition of 200megs and ext4 / partition for the rest of the drive
[19:52] <derik> then how i share a file to windows users ?
[19:52] <Neremor> when i want to rip a dvd, which bpp value would you suggest me to use? I can choose in 0.05-steps (0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 ... to 1.00)
[19:52] <tzafrir_laptop> (host is Debian sid, FWIW)
[19:52] <valley> with a potential /home partition of ext4
[19:52] <tzafrir_laptop> Build fails, and the cause for this is basically:
[19:52] <Pici> tzafrir_laptop: #ubuntu-motu might be a better bet
[19:53] <Neremor> I found out that 0.05 (by way the smallest file) gives an low-quality result, but everything about 0.20 or so i can't see any difference
[19:53] <Neremor> except the file size

[20:01] <thiebaude> brandon420, did you goto system-admistration-hardware drivers
[20:01] <brandon420> yeah
[20:02] <brandon420> and sorry, i dont know how to pm back on this, im used to mirc
[20:02] <Two4> the restricted drivers can be found in the restricted repository
[20:02] <thiebaude> brandon420, and it will serach and select the first one thats recommended
[20:02] <Two4> let me get you a link to the package you need
[20:02] <brandon420> i got the recomended driver, its like 180.something
[20:03] <thiebaude> brandon420, but you got to save the settings
[20:03] <brandon420> a friend of mine had it working, but of course i messed it up
[20:03] <thiebaude> brandon420, gksudo nvidia-settings
[20:04] <brandon420> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[20:04] <thiebaude> brandon420, and i got full desktop effects now
[20:05] <brandon420> thiebaude i had them working at one time
[20:05] <thiebaude> brandon420, yea,  and i have the same 180.44 version
[20:05] <sheepsy> Pici: Is there a way to force a branding package on firefox-3.5? I don't like the blue icons :\
[20:05] <colblood> how do i use unzip? isnt it "unzip file.zip /path/to/extract/to" ?
[20:06] <Th3d3aD_91> hi all
[20:06] <Th3d3aD_91> :)
[20:06] <brandon420> heyy
[20:06] <Pici> sheepsy: Not that I'm aware of. You might be able to pick the launcher icon manually, it might be in /usr/share/icons/
[20:06] <Th3d3aD_91> how are you?
[20:06] <IpSe_DiXiT> amule crashes, no replies on #amule, help! :D
[20:06] <tvjudge> Im trying to help a friend of mine who's system seems to have had its MBR ruined He was running some updates or something (not sure) and it asked about modifying the mbr he thought he said no but now when he boots he gets a letter J and no more grub. Any ideas?
[20:07] <purpzey> !grub | tvjudge
[20:07] <thiebaude> tvjudge, isn't mbr a windows boot system?
[20:07] <Pici> thiebaude: mbr is the master boot record, it is where grub is installed normally.
[20:07] <Guest13900> h/quit
[20:07] <brandon420> !grub
[20:07] <thiebaude> Pici, thanks
[20:08] <brandon420> lol
[20:08]  * thiebaude windows also has a mbr
[20:08] <brandon420> so anyone have any great ideas, for fixing this
[20:09] <Th3d3aD_91> tvjudge your friend can start his computer with a live cd and modify the first partition with that distribution, if I remember that well
[20:09] <nmvictor> brandon420: fixing what?
[20:10] <Pastoolio> good evening, can someone please suggest a frontend for my (old) tv card, anything but mythtv please

[20:12] <tvjudge> thanks purpzey
[20:12] <durt> Pastoolio, known bug in the user directory, need to change permissions for that dir to save preferences.
[20:13] <Two4> sorry pastoolio, I was talking to brandon
[20:13] <dumont> I am having trouble moving 1 file into the same directory's subdirectory, anyone know why the permission is different for a subdirectory? i am the root and I did not change anything
[20:13] <Pastoolio> durt: thanks
[20:13] <dumont> although I'm root, I am not using root account to move the file
[20:13] <Pastoolio> for some reason i can't get mythtv to work
[20:13] <Th3d3aD_91> guys, i'm trying to write on a text file with a bash... but sincerly i can't find a way..can someone help me please?
[20:13] <Pastoolio> my bt tv card is setup as /dev/video0
[20:14] <Two4> gksudo gedit?

[20:15] <Th3d3aD_91> :)
[20:15] <dumont> how do I check chmod permissions for all the files in a directory?
[20:15] <Two4> ubottu, shush. there are no italians here.
[20:15] <linxeh> dumont: each directory has its own permissions - they dont inherit from the parent
[20:15] <Two4> that was futile, I know
[20:15] <Pici> Two4: Yes, someone was just speaking Italian.
[20:15] <Two4> really?
[20:15] <Two4> I missed it
[20:15] <linxeh> dumont: chmod [list of files]
[20:15] <thiebaude> ciao
[20:15] <linxeh> dumont: (list can be *)
[20:16] <dumont> linxeh, thx
[20:16] <Pici> thiebaude: I know you're not italian ;)
[20:16] <thiebaude> Pici, haha
[20:16] <guntbert> dumont: if you just want to see the permissions : ls -l
[20:16] <thiebaude> Pici, your a developer?
[20:17] <josvuk> Hello, how can someone change the default windowsize from the termial?
[20:18] <Pici> thiebaude: no, a helper. :)
[20:18] <thiebaude> josvuk, xrandr
[20:18] <Two4> why must everything be done from the terminal? woe is me
[20:18] <meero> mutt user?
[20:18] <rmccinfo_> Comment paramètre t on le webmail sur le serveur sous WEbmin?
[20:18] <thiebaude> !fr
[20:19] <brandon420> thanks two4, ill try that
[20:19] <seidos> Two4: not everything.  the shell is your friend
[20:19]  * thiebaude fast
[20:19] <Two4> seidos: we're talking about the same thing, I suspect
[20:19] <rmccinfo_> Comment fait on pour se connecter sur ubuntu en français
[20:19] <thiebaude> rmccinfo, i cant comment on your web mail server
[20:20] <seidos> Two4: ah, sarcasm
[20:20] <thiebaude> rmccinfo, non
[20:20] <Two4> text has a nasty habit of not conveying that, seidos
[20:20] <thiebaude> rmccinfo, your web server doesn't connect
[20:21] <Pici> rmccinfo_: This channel is english only
[20:21] <axell> xchat helpguide Please? where i can find it...?
[20:21] <seidos> Two4: that it does
[20:21] <Two4> the french have invaded!
[20:21] <dumont> how can I allow a user move\change files of a root?

[20:21] <mmarker> ok, anyone good with QoS and ubuntu, trying to figure out how to do something sanely. problem is, cant use more than x gb a month.
[20:22] <Two4> alex_ have you enabled restricted drivers?
[20:22] <thiebaude> seidos, oui
[20:22] <josvuk> thiebaude: I mean the terminalapplication windowsize when I launch it with doubleclick, it shoud be 70 x 120 charackters and not only 24 x 60 chars
[20:22] <thiebaude> josvuk, i dont know that
[20:23] <dumont> perhaps make the user an admin? I already added to sudoers username (ALL)=ALL ALL
[20:23] <dumont> anything else I should do?
[20:23] <larsemil> is there a curses or similar interface for jockey?
[20:24] <seidos> josvuk: I had a similar problem.  I wanted the terminal window to be smaller, but I couldn't figure out how to change its default size
[20:24] <Two4> larsemil, in my experiance, if you curse at a jockey, they punch you in the groin
[20:24] <Two4> experience*
[20:24] <seidos> josvuk: automatically upon start up anyway
[20:24] <larsemil> Two4: :)
[20:25] <Balsaq> i have a clean intall of 8.10 and it runs great, is there any reason why i should upgrade to the 9.04?
[20:25] <Two4> horseracing: small angry people on horseback. how can you go wrong?
[20:25] <cumulus007> Hi, what's the difference between the Main and Universe repo?
[20:25] <thiebaude> Balsaq, because if you want you can enable ext4
[20:25] <Pici> Two4: We really like to keep this channel for support only, if you're bored theres #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:25] <alex_> two4 it says no proprietary drivers to install. envy has an error. i was messin with it.

[20:30] <kris_> Hi. I just bought a Dell Inspiron Mini, with Ubuntu pre-installed. I am trying to get it to use the b43 driver, instead of the wl driver. Is there any way to force this?
[20:31] <Balsaq> i guess the software knows when you answer me and your name comes up bright...ok thanks again (thiebaude)
[20:31] <thiebaude> Balsaq, np
[20:31] <thiebaude> Balsaq, oh, you got compiz?
[20:32] <DonBrazini> hello
[20:32] <meero> hello
[20:32] <Balsaq> i didn't instal compiz? maybe if it came inside of 8.10? (thiebaude)
[20:32] <DonBrazini> sup?
[20:32] <boscop> how can I disable the possibility that someone hacks my root password when he has physical access to my laptop?
[20:32] <thiebaude> Balsaq, ok
[20:32] <mrwes> kris_, does the b43 driver show in system | admin | hardware drivers?
[20:32] <sash_> boscop: by default, root is not enabled.
[20:33] <clearscreen> boscop: you don't.. all hope is lost with physical access
[20:33] <meero> cool man
[20:33] <boscop> sash_: I've read this: http://blog.taragana.com/index.php/archive/how-to-hack-root-password-in-linux/
[20:33] <Balsaq> what is compiz(thiebaude)...
[20:33] <DonBrazini> help me with the sound problem,its driving me insane.
[20:33] <thiebaude> !compiz
[20:33] <boscop> sash_: how can I disable that for me?
[20:33] <brandon420> another question.............., when im in a terminal, and something is running, but i want to close it (without brandon@brandon420-desktop:~$) how would i close that without it messing shit up?
[20:34] <coordinador> When i try to open a file from other user, i got that a file is locked
[20:34] <sash_> boscop: first, you can set a password for grub. google that
[20:34] <bale> zdr
[20:34] <kris_> mrwes: There's some kind of Broadcom driver here. Lemme restart the mini and see what happens now ...
[20:34] <dojo> in ubuntu 9.04, xorg.conf doesn't seem to be used as much. its like all the options disappeared. can anyone help me setup dual monitors?
[20:34] <dumont> whats 755 chmod vs 777?
[20:34] <boscop> sash_: won't that be possible anymore, then?
[20:34] <sash_> when you setted up the password, nobody can modify grub-entries without knowing the password
[20:34] <dojo> dumont, look up file permissions
[20:34] <krdyt> can someone help me get my new winxp install to show up on boot menu and run if selected? its on /dev/sda3/ on my (hd0) drive i have 2HDDs
[20:35] <dumont> they are confusing as to what 1st 2nd and 3rd digits are
[20:35] <mrwes> kris_, I'll pray for ya :)
[20:35] <dumont> i know 7 is everything
[20:35] <dumont> read write and execute
[20:35] <dojo> dumont, look up chmod permissions and binary values
[20:35] <kris_> mrwes: Why thanks. Don't hear that too often on this kind of channel. ;-)
[20:35] <sash_> boscop: in this blog-entry you posted, the "hacker" has been able to modify those entries. if he is not, he cannot do this woooow"HACK!!!!"
[20:36] <mrwes> 4= read 2=write 1=execute
[20:36] <clearscreen> boscop: you may also want to look into LUKS
[20:36] <mezquitale> Is it possible to configure 128-bit WEP key with passphrase in ubuntu??
[20:36] <mrwes> kris_, bunch of non-believers :)
[20:37] <colblood> i get Failed on every file i try to unrar from commandline, ideas?
[20:37] <sash_> clearscreen: i dont really think so
[20:37] <mrwes> colblood, unrar e file.rar doesn't work?
[20:37] <DonBrazini> anyone?
[20:37] <Lifestream> ~ Hi all. Can I load LiveCD Ubuntu into Virtualbox in Windows, and from that VB Ubuntu, format an 320GB USB drive, and install Ubuntu into that USB drive?
[20:38] <kris_> mrwes: Ok. So, jockey just tried to install the "Broadcom STA wireless driver", but after the reboot, says that it is still not enabled. I'm not sure if that's the same as the b43 driver ... this isn't quite the Vanilla Ubuntu install ....
[20:38] <dojo> is anyone fluent on the new xorg stuff in here? (ubuntu 9.04+)
[20:38] <kris_> mrwes: Anyways, I can't seem to get it enabled.
[20:38] <coordinador> I have ubuntu 9.04, i have openoffice3, i got the error that a file has been locked by other user but that is not true
[20:38] <Two4> why not boot the liveCD then install Ubuntu on to the external drive from there?
[20:38] <Eevee> Lifestream: I..  think that should work yes, as long as the VM has full access to the usb drive
[20:39] <mrwes> kris_, could try using wicd instead of the network-manager aplet
[20:39] <Lifestream> Eevee, Yes!! Thank you :D
[20:39] <ratapoil> is CUPS-PDF obsolete in jaunty?
[20:39] <CocaCola77> Hi, I have this old left over grey box (Piv 1.4ghz, 256mb, 20gb) pc. That used to be a winxp machine. I want to use it as ubuntu server and then especially samba with nt4 like domain controller. Is there a way that I can test that machine is able to the task? I mean not physical but that it's a stable machine and doesn't crash due to hardware every other day?
[20:39] <Eevee> Lifestream: not positive!  but you can always boot directly off the cd if it doesn't work
[20:39] <kris_> mrwes: Never heard of it, but I'll give it a shot ...
[20:39] <mrwes> kris_, hang on I might have a link
[20:40] <Miko2> Okay, I ran the software updates, and it seems my Ubuntu got updated to karmic development branch and now / is mounted as readonly.
[20:40] <Lifestream> Eevee, yeah that's the thing, I'm so clumsy; all my blank CD's are scratched *snickers*
[20:40] <Miko2> Which prevents me from doing anything.
[20:40] <ratapoil> What's the easiest way to print to PDF in jaunty? (from a web article, not from openoffice)
[20:40] <mrwes> !wicd
[20:40] <kris_> mrwes: Actually, what I'm trying to do is enable aircrack-ng support. The `wl' driver doesn't seem to provide monitor/promisc support.
[20:40] <Mit> ratapoil, cups-pdf ?
[20:40] <DonBrazini1> Miko,dude,you will have to reinstall
[20:40] <blackxored> where's the lyrics support in banshee???
[20:40] <Cpudan80> !pdf | ratapoil
[20:40] <DonBrazini1> the same happened to me
[20:40] <Miko2> DonBrazini1: No!? :(
[20:40] <DonBrazini1> trust me
[20:40] <Cpudan80> ratapoil: hmm that factoid doesn't mention printing - you can add it under the printing config thing
[20:40] <Two4> Miko, first confirm that you have indeed done that
[20:40] <Eevee> Lifestream: ah, the tedium of cds is why I make a liveusb key  8)
[20:40] <DonBrazini1> does it says unmet dependencies?
[20:40] <Cpudan80> ratapoil: one of the options is CUPS/PDF
[20:41] <Mit> got an interesting one with the Karmic beta - I wondered if anyone would be able to help - every boot i get Ubiquity firing asking me 4 questiosn to "complete the install"
[20:41] <Miko2> DonBrazini1: Where?
[20:41] <Two4> what's the shell command to check your ubuntu version?
[20:41] <dedal> some one to know a program for data recovery and for system clean
[20:41] <Flannel> Mit: #ubuntu+1 for Karmic support, thanks
[20:41] <Flannel> Two4: lsb_release -a
[20:41] <DonBrazini1> do one thing,try installing any package.

[20:41] <ratapoil> I tried CUPs-PDF it keeps not working. Tried a lot of solutions offered on the web, none works. it always says Idle - /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf failed
[20:42] <axell> join  #nugteq
[20:42] <Two4> Miko, type the command 'lsb_release -a' into your terminal to check your version
[20:42] <Lifestream> Eevee,  oh yes! I will have to try that!
[20:42] <Miko2> Two4: Ubuntu karmic..

[20:42] <DonBrazini1> you wont be able to do a thing
[20:43] <DonBrazini1> Two4 can you help me with something?
[20:43] <Miko2> Okay..
[20:43] <Guest46088> Hi there, I'm looking for an app suggestion. I have an XP hard disk and I want to make a compressed backup, so I can restore it later on a separate (smaller) partition
[20:43] <Two4> coffee would be great
[20:43] <Miko2> But, how did apt-get install karmic? O.o
[20:43] <shoss> i forgot how i made my desktop transparent now i can't see the icons, how do i get it back?
[20:43] <Miko2> Or software updates.

[20:45]  * Guest46088 wants to make a backup of only about ~8 GB that's actually being used, not the 152 GB empty space
[20:45] <DonBrazini1> Miko2,it happens

[20:50] <DonBrazini1> alsamixer -Dhw
[20:50] <shoss> DonBrazini1: i don't understand
[20:50] <lasthopesinyouu> After playing with compiz my title bar on top of windows has gone away, any idea how i can get it back?
[20:51] <DonBrazini1> who wanted to get the mic settings right?
[20:51] <donaldo> hi anyone knows how to operate the integrated subwoofer a toshiba laptop on ubuntu?, any idea?
[20:51] <shoss> Two4: thank you
[20:51] <dubs13> Is there a way to use redirection to use locate, find a list of files, and then copy them somewhere
[20:51] <duffydack> donaldo, well on my dell is master mono channel
[20:52] <Eevee> duffydack: for file in $(locate foo); do cp $file /somewhere/; done
[20:52] <Eevee> er
[20:52] <Eevee> dubs13*
[20:53] <donaldo> duffydack:
[20:53] <donaldo> the laptop is a toshiba x205-S9800 and does not work.
[20:53] <duffydack> donaldo, I dont know then, I was just saying what mine uses for subwoofer.. might/not be the same on yours..  Googled it?
[20:55] <donaldo> duffydack:
[20:55] <donaldo> I already have a year like this. And I have not found information.
[20:56] <TLF> it's the keyserver working?
[20:56] <Miko2> I hope I have the USB stick lying around somewhere so I can actually do the reinstall.. :P
[20:56] <DonBrazini> dont you have the disk,Miko
[20:57] <Miko2> Nope. I got Ubuntu-stick. :P
[20:57] <DonBrazini> LOL
[20:57] <saru> i put Ubuntu on my USB 4gig stick, and i loved the install
[20:57] <DonBrazini> Nice
[20:57] <saru> worked great
[20:57] <neptune_> what program can i use to watch my movies?
[20:57] <DonBrazini> VLC
[20:57] <saru> mplayer
[20:57] <Eevee> totem
[20:57] <saru> bsplayer
[20:57] <neptune_> Movie Player lags, and doesn't show subtitles
[20:57] <saru> xine
[20:57] <Miko2> Of course, I have Windows, so if all else fails, I can start using it instead. :P
[20:57] <DonBrazini> Windows sucks
[20:58] <saru> VLC is nice :)
[20:58] <DonBrazini> i havewindows 7
[20:58] <DonBrazini> virtualbox
[20:58] <saru> you like windows 7?
[20:58] <neptune_> should i download VLC?
[20:58] <neptune_> hello?
[20:58] <Miko2> I like Windows 7.
[20:58] <_s_k_y_> VLC is the best
[20:58] <saru> i use VLC on my windows box
[20:58] <Eevee> VLC has a good backend but the UI is still kinda ugly, not very native, and obviously built by engineers
[20:58] <DonBrazini> No,but i am a poker addict,i need windows 7 .. lol
[20:58] <duffydack> how to make a good OS.... make a bad one before it..
[20:58] <meero> windows 7 is best
[20:59] <boscop> how can I set a global proxy for ubuntu that all internet protocols should use?
[20:59] <DonBrazini> VLC is good,but the latest version has some trouble playing dvd's.
[20:59] <saru> i need to get a copy of Windows 7
[20:59] <meero> yes mee to
[20:59] <DonBrazini> i Have it
[20:59] <DonBrazini> LOL
[20:59] <neptune_> VLC is not on synaptic :(
[20:59] <DonBrazini> go to add/remove
[20:59] <duffydack> apt-get install vlc
[20:59] <DonBrazini> windows 7 is wayy better than any windows releas
[20:59] <Two4> shoss, go to your terminal and type in 'sudo ccsm'
[20:59] <boscop> DonBrazini: how so?
[21:00] <ED6EY> I just got Ubuntu for the first time and i'm trying it out on my eee pc netbook, i'm just wondering is there any way to disable your trackpad while typing. It's gotten very annoying when tying out longer documents? thanks in advance!
[21:00] <neptune_> duffydack i am on ubuntu
[21:00] <Eevee> is it really surprising (or impressive) that the latest release of some software is the best version so far?
[21:00] <DonBrazini> boscopyou dont agree?
[21:00] <duffydack> neptune_, snap
[21:00] <boscop> ED6EY: Fn+F7 works for me
[21:00] <neptune_> i have apt-get but i was told it's for kubuntu
[21:00] <duffydack> neptune_, you were told wrong.
[21:00] <shoss> Two4: i got the compizconfig settings manager
[21:01] <Eevee> ED6EY: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad#Disabling%20the%20Touchpad%20Temporarily%20While%20Typing
[21:01] <saru> ED6EY, disabling your touch pad is an option your laptop has now the Operating System
[21:01] <ED6EY> I mean disable it auto then reenable auto after some given delay
[21:01] <saru> usually its a Function key, for me its Fn (Function) + F7
[21:01] <DonBrazini> saru,you ever got any sound problems?
[21:02] <Two4> shoss, any luck with that?
[21:02] <DonBrazini> saru,
[21:02] <saru> i haven't used Ubuntu for that long myself
[21:02] <XDevHald> I have an issue with my windows not popping up in front of each other. Say I have firefox open and I launch Computer from Places, it will go behind firefox and not in front.
[21:02] <saru> no sound issues that i know of...
[21:02] <DonBrazini> Devhald,u using compiz?
[21:02] <DonBrazini> my sound went off after the updates
[21:02] <DonBrazini> :|
[21:02] <saru> XDevHald, do you have your firefox on "always ontop"?
[21:02] <ED6EY> Eevee: thank you will try this
[21:03] <saru> right click on the menu bar and make sure it doesn't say always on top
[21:03] <shoss> Two4: not yet, i've been all over that menu but so far couldn't find it
[21:03] <duffydack> neptune_, smplayer is also a good player
[21:04] <assinine> I can't bring windows to the 2nd desktop (gnome) by dragging them to the side of the screen. Anyone know what's wrong?
[21:05] <duffydack> assinine, might need to enable viewport switcher plugin in compiz
[21:05] <assinine> i have all desktop effects turned off, duffydack
[21:05] <assinine> "none"
[21:06] <Two4> I think it may be under the settings for the desktop cube in the desktop category, shoss
[21:06] <duffydack> assinine, do you mean multi monitors?
[21:06] <assinine> no
[21:06] <duffydack> assinine, virtual desktops then?
[21:06] <neptune_> thx
[21:07] <assinine> no the 2nd desktop ubuntu has to the right by default.
[21:07] <duffydack> assinine, its a compiz effect..
[21:07] <shoss> Two4: that's the settings for the cube's transparency, i need the desktop transparency..
[21:07] <wullie43> hi all
[21:07] <duffydack> assinine, needs cube or the wall
[21:07] <motorr> hi all
[21:07] <assinine> duffydack: what is the wall?
[21:08] <Two4> I think they may be one and the same, judging by the forum posts
[21:08] <wullie43> im total linux noob who can help lol
[21:08] <duffydack> assinine, plugins for compiz.. you need to enable cube or the wall.
[21:08] <assinine> duffydack: what is "the wall"?
[21:08] <boscop> how can I set a global proxy for ubuntu that all internet protocols should use?
[21:08] <JohannesSM64> wullie43: don't ask to ask, just ask
[21:08] <DonBrazini1> shoss,
[21:09] <DonBrazini1> go to
[21:09] <Two4> it was just complete coincidence that these two unrelated problems intersected in the same topic at the same time?
[21:09] <duffydack> assinine, you cant drag windows to other desktops like that unless you have compiz enabled.  metacity doesnt allow that
[21:09] <DonBrazini1> desktop cube
[21:09] <ryguy> Is there a way to indent the newlines from the output of a `fold` command?
[21:09] <assinine> duffydack: but I've done it before without turning anything on.
[21:09] <DonBrazini1> desktop cube->transparent cube->opacity when not rotating.
[21:10] <DonBrazini1> it will cure your "problem"
[21:10] <XDevHald> DonBrazini1: Yes I am using compiz
[21:10] <DonBrazini1> what was ur problem,devhald?
[21:10] <XDevHald> Opening a window and it going behind others and not in front.
[21:10] <donaldo>
[21:10] <donaldo> operate as an integrated subwoofer toshiba x205 laptop with realteck ALC268, anyone know?
[21:11] <duffydack> assinine, for that effect you would have had compiz enabled.. with the desktop wall or cube plugin...  Ive never known plain old metacity do that.
[21:11] <XDevHald> I always seem to forget how to do this option.
[21:11] <shoss> DonBrazini1: yes! thank you!
[21:11] <ryguy> er, donaldo, your first line was omitted, please send again
[21:11] <DonBrazini1> you are welcome,shoss :)
[21:11] <DonBrazini1> devhald
[21:11] <shoss> Two4: DonBrazini1 found it.. thank you
[21:11] <duffydack> assinine, I think you can drag a window from the desktop switcher applet in panel like that, but not from an actual desktop
[21:11] <DonBrazini1> its something to do with compiz settings
[21:11] <XDevHald> Correct
[21:11] <DonBrazini1> will look inti it
[21:11] <XDevHald> Thank you.
[21:11] <shoss> yeah i knew that i just forgot where i changed it :p
[21:12] <saru> be back in a few
[21:12] <DonBrazini1> Shoss,new to ubuntu?
[21:12] <ryguy> Is there a way to indent the newlines from the output of a `fold` command?
[21:12] <shoss> DonBrazini1: yes i am
[21:12] <shoss> migrated from vista :p
[21:12] <neptune_> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[21:12] <XDevHald> DonBrazini1: It looks to be something with the focus for the windows.
[21:12] <Nadroj> Is there a command to see what my proxy server and port?
[21:12] <neptune_> VLC doesn't show my subtitles
[21:12] <DonBrazini1> good thing,vista sucks
[21:12] <donaldo>
[21:12] <donaldo> if anyone knows how to configure an integrated subwoofer toshiba x205 laptop with Realtek ALC268?
[21:13] <neptune_> its like it doesn't have greek characters
[21:13] <Two4> no problem
[21:13] <motorr> how can i find the german ubuntu channel
[21:13] <Two4> !de
[21:14] <Nadroj> Anyone know a command to see what my proxy server and port is?
[21:14] <jrib> Nadroj: your question is too vague
[21:14] <motorr> Two4, do you know when the next version of ubuntu will come out?
[21:14] <strange> the website
[21:14] <DonBrazini1> april 2010
[21:14] <strange> no
[21:14] <strange> thats the version after karmic
[21:14] <Eevee> karmic is october
[21:14] <motorr> DonBrazini1, next year?
[21:14] <Nadroj> jrib: What else do you need?
[21:15] <DonBrazini1> the stable version,yes,next year
[21:15] <Two4> motorr, I don't. check the documentation on karmic koala, though
[21:15] <motorr> ok thanks
[21:15] <jrib> Nadroj: how did you set it?
[21:15] <Nadroj> jrib: I'm not sure if there is one set, so i'm asking is there a command to check?
[21:16] <hairywombat001> g'day, is there a way I can easily upgrade from Ubuntu Jaunty desktop edition to Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[21:16] <DonBrazini1> No
[21:16] <DonBrazini1> you will need to have a netbook for that
[21:16] <jrib> Nadroj: well, one way to set it would be to set $http_proxy for example.  You could also just specify it for a particular app if it supports that (like firefox)
[21:16] <jrib> Nadroj: why do you want this?
[21:16] <hairywombat001> DonBrazini1: I am using a netbook. It has stock Jaunty installed, want to switch to UNR
[21:16] <whileimhere> hi when I go into my LXDF desktop the NBR also pops up in the background. I want to get rid of it permentaly. How can I do this?
[21:16] <phoenixz> Anyone here who has some experience with printers?  Eventually the printer was tried even on WinXP, but the problem persists.. What could this be?
[21:17] <Otacon22> Is the ubuntu keyserver down?
[21:17] <DonBrazini1> yeah,then you can ... download the netbook remix,install it,i guess,thats the best way.
[21:17] <DonBrazini1> Otacon,yeah,i guess.
[21:17] <LjL> Otacon22: many people have asked the same question, so probably yes
[21:17] <Nadroj> jrib: I just want to know what my proxy is.  I'm not sure if I'm behind one, so is there a terminal command to check?
[21:17] <jrib> Nadroj: check the value of http_proxy...
[21:17] <purpzey> phoenixz: Are you sure the printer is working? If it doesn't work in windows, and it doesn't work in Ubuntu. . .
[21:17] <XDevHald> DonBrazini1<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:18] <Nadroj> jrib: Where can I find that?
[21:18] <jrib> Nadroj: echo $http_proxy
[21:18] <ZykoticK9> DonBrazini1, you could start by just installing the interface "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix"
[21:18] <Nadroj> jrib:  Echoed back nothing.
[21:18] <Nadroj> Blank line.
[21:18] <enduser000> hello, does anyone know if there's a program in ubuntu that can read .one (one note) files? I unfortunately have one here and can't open it
[21:18] <jrib> Nadroj: then it's not set
[21:18] <phoenixz> purpzey: The same problem is there in windows and in ubuntu..
[21:19] <purpzey> phoenixz: Right, I am suggesting that maybe the issue is with the printer.
[21:19] <DonBrazini1> Zykotik,indeed,but it will be upgraded,lots of problems in that.
[21:19] <Nadroj> jrib: Thank you.
[21:19] <Eevee> hairywombat001: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-ubuntu-netbook-remix-in-ubuntu-810804.html for intrepid, ought to be similar for jaunty
[21:19] <jrib> Nadroj: you could probably use traceroute to check differently
[21:19] <DonBrazini1> i have my sound down because of an update
[21:19] <Two4> enduser, hold on. let me see
[21:19] <hairywombat001> eevee: thanks man!
[21:19] <enduser000> Two4: thanks
[21:19] <Eevee> sure
[21:19] <phoenixz> purpzey: I'd think so too, but what could cause just slow printing? its all perfect, prints without problem but one page of texts takes like 30 minutes
[21:20] <phoenixz> thats.. just weird..
[21:20] <ZykoticK9> DonBrazini1, you'll get the update probably the exact same in Stock or UNR?!?!
[21:20] <purpzey> phoenixz: If the printer was physically broken somehow, just a guess if it doesn't work in two O/Ses.
[21:20] <DonBrazini1> UNR , it will cause upgradation problems.
[21:20] <DonBrazini1> as in
[21:21] <DonBrazini1> the sound might not play,kernel wont accept the sound card.
[21:21] <saru> Hey quick question, how do you restart the Ubuntu X Manager without restarting the computer, looks like Ctrl+Alt+Backspace is disabled
[21:21] <purpzey> !dontzap | saru
[21:21] <ZykoticK9> DonBrazini1, you'll be getting the same Kernel updates on both systems - it's the same OS when it comes down to it
[21:21] <jrib> saru: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[21:22]  * LjL slaps jrib for ignoring invoke-rc.d
[21:22] <DonBrazini1> Zykotick,have you ever upgraded from a previous distro to a new one?
[21:22] <enduser000> saru: you can do "sudo /etc/initd./gdm restart" in a terminal or "gksu /etc/initd./gdm restart" in the run (alt+f2) prompt
[21:22] <jrib> LjL: I was gonna go with sudo service gdm restart but wanted to provoke you
[21:22] <arcsky> i run hamachi on my ubuntu server but i cant browse files from samba, can it be my iptables firewall?
[21:22] <duffydack> UNR is only a few packages to install....well it was when I first tried it.
[21:22] <LjL> jrib: only fair.
[21:22] <DonBrazini1> i want a net book :(
[21:22] <DonBrazini1> (
[21:22] <hairywombat001> trying... sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix
[21:23] <hairywombat001> all done
[21:23] <hairywombat001> thanks for the tips guys
[21:23] <scotsguy> hey guys
[21:23] <duffydack> ^ so theres a metapackage now... it was maximus and some other things before :) nice
[21:23] <hairywombat001> time to reboot and see what happens :)
[21:23] <scott_ino2> DonBrazini1, I'll sell you one ;-)
[21:23] <ZykoticK9> DonBrazini1, a couple of times, but when I suggested "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix" it's NOT the same as installing from a UNR USB stick!  This just adds the UNR interface to a regular Ubuntu.
[21:24] <DonBrazini1> i will give you an offer that you can not refuse :p;
[21:24] <DonBrazini1> LOL
[21:24] <duffydack> isnt that all people care about really..the only reason to use UNR is for the interface..
[21:24] <scott_ino2> anyone know if the UNR works with touchscreen?
[21:24] <scott_ino2> just curious
[21:24] <DonBrazini1> Zykotick,my bad. :P
[21:25] <Two4> Holy cow I just discovered my compiz expo plugin
[21:25] <FoolishOwl> I have a wireless router that I've misconfigured. I want to overwrite the firmware via tftp, but I don't know what the IP address of the router is.
[21:25] <Two4> shwoop-shOOoop
[21:25] <Two4> shwoop-shOOoop
[21:25] <lunatic> ccsm makes configuring compiz easy
[21:25] <duffydack> Two4, awesome isnt it
[21:26] <saru> FoolishOwl, your DNS should be the IP to the router
[21:26] <saru> usually like <IP_ADDRESS> or something
[21:26] <Two4> YES!
[21:26] <DonBrazini1> my sound isnt working,help ma :|
[21:26] <DonBrazini1> me*
[21:26] <FoolishOwl> saru, I'm not using the router to connect to the Internet, currently.
[21:27] <saru> it should still have a Local IP
[21:27] <duffydack> all those plugins and I dont touch the keyboard to use em :)
[21:27] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, don't know if this is really the channel for this, not that I mind ;-)
[21:27] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, what firmware are you using?
[21:27] <FoolishOwl> Right, it should have an IP address, but I don't know how to determine what it is.
[21:27] <DonBrazini1> anyone?
[21:27] <saru> connect it to your computer
[21:27] <FoolishOwl> I'll move to a different channel if there's one more appropriate.
[21:27] <saru> and do a ipconfig or ifconfig
[21:27] <mikeymike> HI MATT
[21:27] <krammer> I am trying to remove a program (directory) but the only way to do it file by file I forgot the command
[21:28] <Matt08642> HI MIKE!!
[21:28] <FoolishOwl> It is connected to my computer now.
[21:28] <xguru> is there a plugin that i need to install to listen to radio stations streaming music?
[21:28] <mikeymike> HOW ARE YOU MATTHEW
[21:28] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, i was only giving you a hard time im not the IRC police
[21:28] <FoolishOwl> I haven't yet changed the firmware.
[21:28] <saru> well if your connected to the router do a ifconfig under linux or ipconfig under windows
[21:28] <scott_ino2> xguru, try streamtuner
[21:28] <xguru> scott_ino2: thanks
[21:28] <scott_ino2> xguru, although many other players should work as well
[21:28] <saru> it should list your connected devices and give you a DNS IP for the router
[21:28] <FoolishOwl> At one point, I was trying to change it to wireless access point mode, and I haven't been able to access the thing since.
[21:29] <scott_ino2> xguru, are you yrying to do it via a website, or through an application
[21:29] <FoolishOwl> saru, it doesn't report an IP address for it.
[21:29] <xguru> well in firefox it opened up a flash windows, but nothing played...just stayed black
[21:29] <saru> you using windows?
[21:29] <xguru> web
[21:29] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, so stock firmware, if you hard reset router should go back to being <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:29] <FoolishOwl> No, Ubuntu.
[21:29] <FoolishOwl> scott_ino2, that's part of the puzzle. For some reason, the hard reset doesn't work.
[21:30] <saru> FoolishOwl, try clicking this link.. http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[21:30] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, give me one sec
[21:30] <saru> see if that connects you to your router
[21:30] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, sometimes hard resets can be weird... i have some suggestions
[21:30] <saru> you could go to google
[21:30] <FoolishOwl> I'd love to read them.
[21:30] <scott_ino2> xguru, do you have a link i can sample to check for you
[21:30] <saru> and look up your model number for the router and find the manual.
[21:31] <Matt08642> I am trying to mount my old SATA hard drive in a live session with windows XP installed on it. It seems like windows has marked it as in use: http://imgur.com/DZkJv.png
[21:31] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, on some routers you literally have to hold the button down for 30-45 seconds have you made sure you've done that
[21:31] <Matt08642> I just want to copy old files to back them up before formatting
[21:31] <Fox3211> firefox question here. firefox crashes every time I go away from start page. what gives?
[21:31] <DonBrazini1> saely remove it
[21:31] <FoolishOwl> That might be it.
[21:31] <DonBrazini1> and then use it
[21:31] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, try that first, if not let me know
[21:31] <DonBrazini1> safely remove it in windows
[21:31] <xguru> can i pate a url here, or message it to you?
[21:32] <Matt08642> I can't as I don't have a computer with a SATA port
[21:32] <scott_ino2> xguru, if it's long message me
[21:32] <xguru> http://www.channel955.com/main.html
[21:32] <izzaboo> i don't know if anyone here was on earlier when I was asking about installing Ubuntu on AAO D250 and I wasn't having the option to install it "side by side"...but I burned a CD with the .iso and booted from that.  Now I have the option.  crazy.  same image i used to make my liveUSB stick
[21:32] <DonBrazini1> i dunno then,ubuntu wont mount it
[21:32] <xguru> scott_ino2: on the right it says "on air"  just click that...i couldn't copy the direct url for some reason
[21:32] <scott_ino2> xguru, k let me check
[21:33] <saru> is there an option in Ubuntu or Compiz that dims your brightness if you don't use your mouse or keyboard for a few mins?
[21:33] <scott_ino2> xguru, this is a flash based player but works for me, do you have flash installed
[21:33] <DonBrazini1> ubuntu has
[21:33] <DonBrazini1> dunoo bout compiz
[21:33] <saru> how do you disable it?
[21:34] <xguru> scott_ino2: yes, it comes up with an arrow on most sites and i click it to view it..
[21:34] <nmvictor> i have a .rpm package , how do i install it using alien?
[21:34] <erUSUL> !alien
[21:34] <krammer> how can i remove a directory tried rm sudo <filename> -r but I am getting this error  descend into directory
[21:34] <Matt08642> How do I unmark my SATA drive as "in use?"
[21:35] <scott_ino2> xguru, when you click "listen live" does it launch a new window for you and launch the player?
[21:35] <erUSUL> krammer: is "rm -r foldername"
[21:35] <DonBrazini1> system->preferences->power management
[21:35] <alex_> i cant get emerald to work
[21:35] <KaiForce> I restored (with Clonezilla)  my dual boot windows/Ubuntu system.  The Windows system partition was encrypted with Truecrypt.  When I restored, the system reverted to the Grub boot loader.  Anyone have any idea how I can force the system to go back to the truecrypt bootloader?
[21:35] <Two4> enduser, I'm not finding much. the extension is proprietary, so I don't think open source developers want to touch it
[21:35] <xguru> scott_ino2: no it does open a new window.  In that window i have a huge background with an grayish arrow.  When i usually click these windows they load in though
[21:35] <nmvictor> how do i install a .rpm package using alien?
[21:35] <krammer> erUSUL, I am getting descending into directory?
[21:36] <saru> DonBrazini1, thanks
[21:36] <saru> got it working :)
[21:36] <DonBrazini1> pleasure
[21:36] <erUSUL> krammer: any other error ?
[21:36] <krammer> no
[21:36] <Fox> I guess i will try again. Anyone a firefox guru?
[21:36] <scott_ino2> xguru, hmmm that's not what happened for me, I got a loading screen and then it displayed all the controls along with other ads,pictures
[21:36] <boscop> hey. where is the grub.conf file??
[21:36] <krammer> another words I am being asked to descend the directory
[21:36] <DonBrazini1> i use chromium
[21:36] <DonBrazini1> :P
[21:36] <saru> i had the first window set, but on the second tab there was another idle check box i missed :)
[21:36] <scott_ino2> xguru, what
[21:36] <boscop> grub.conf is not in /boot/grub/
[21:37] <Eevee> krammer: 'sudo' goes first.  it looks like you're trying to delete a file named 'sudo'.  and the switches go after the command name.  you want 'sudo rm -r <filename>'
[21:37] <scott_ino2> s your environment? most recent ubuntu, 32 or 64 bit, firefox ?
[21:37] <krammer> ill try it thanks
[21:37] <xguru> karmic, and firefox 3.5.3
[21:37] <krammer> thanks you guys
[21:38] <alex_> it wont load, fusion icon, alt f2 emerald replace. it wont come up anymore
[21:38] <alex_> emerald --replace that is
[21:38] <FoolishOwl> scott_ino2, no luck so far. One odd thing is that when I executed "sudo ifdown eth0," part of the response is "DHCPRELEASE on eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67"
[21:39] <FoolishOwl> I would think that would mean that it *had* connected to <IP_ADDRESS> at some point.
[21:39] <xguru> scott_ino2: whats the best way to see if i still have the up to date flash?
[21:39] <squeezecheeze> "boys drool girls rule mavens mule"  -- quoth the WORKHORSE
[21:39] <djbpython> where should i put bash scripts so they are executable from anywhere?
[21:40] <squeezecheeze> /usr/local/bin
[21:40] <scott_ino2> xguru, any reason you're using karmic? it's beta you know right?
[21:40] <erUSUL> !karmic
[21:40] <xguru> yea, i only have it on this laptop.
[21:41] <scott_ino2> k just wanted to make sure you were using it intentionally
[21:41] <scott_ino2> xguru do you still have firefox 3.0.14 installed or no?
[21:41] <xguru> yea 9.04 has alot of hardware issues...supposedly fixed in 9.10 already
[21:41] <scott_ino2> oh wait you're using karmic nevermind
[21:41] <alex_> why wont my emerald load?
[21:41] <DonBrazini1> 9.04
[21:41] <xguru> nope.  3.5.3
[21:41] <erUSUL> !emerald
[21:41] <scott_ino2> xguru, yes 9.10 fixed a Lot...
[21:41] <DonBrazini1> sound troubles,lol.
[21:42] <mikeymike> hey guys how do you become root in a live cd
[21:42] <mikeymike> sudo yields options
[21:42] <mikeymike> su requires a password
[21:42] <Keiffer> how can i make the Terminal to remember a x*Y size?
[21:42] <Keiffer> mikeymike,  sudo su
[21:42] <mikeymike> OH DUH
[21:42] <mikeymike> HAHAHA
[21:42] <mikeymike> i always forget that!
[21:42] <scott_ino2> xguru, sorry i can't assist more, as im not running karmic, perhaps i can try and install in vmware and test, im in this channel a lot
[21:42] <djbpython> why can't i save a bash script in to usr/local/bin ?
[21:42] <erUSUL> !rootshell
[21:42] <jerkman> this may be the wrong channel to ask, but i cant get onto certain networks on irc
[21:43] <mikeymike> ubottu, thanks botty  :)
[21:43] <erUSUL> djbpython: you have to use sudo to writte there
[21:43] <xguru> scott_ino2: no need, thanks for the help....i'll just do some more reading :)
[21:43] <Ese> Can I do a minimal install, just the CLI with a live xubuntu CD?
[21:43] <squeezecheeze> make sure you are typing '/usr/local/bin' and not just 'usr/local/bin'  (note the leading slash)
[21:43] <djbpython> erUSUL, but I am using gedit
[21:43] <FoolishOwl> Is there a way to scan for wireless networks at the command line?
[21:43] <Keiffer> how can i force the termina to rmember a specific size?
[21:44] <erUSUL> djbpython: save the scriptt in your home then move or copy it to /usr/local/bin/
[21:44] <dedal> djbpython chmod +w usr/local/bin
[21:44] <erUSUL> FoolishOwl: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[21:44] <djbpython> its silly that i need to drop to the command line to save a file
[21:44] <jerkman> the server i cannot access is irc.abjects.net:6667 can anyone verify?
[21:44] <scott_ino2> erUSUL, beat me to it
[21:44] <djbpython> haha, I have to make a copy then move it?
[21:44] <erUSUL> dedal: do not advise that silly thing...
[21:45] <rent0n> hello
[21:45] <rent0n> so it will be ubuntu software center and not store :)
[21:45] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, its possible it's not wlan0 it could be eth1 or eth2 whatever your device is
[21:45] <erUSUL> djbpython: you should have used « gksudo gedit » in thwe first place so the error is between the chair and the keyboard not in linux
[21:45] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, mine is: iwlist eth1 scan
[21:45] <mikeymike> why is this command not working: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda5 /media/Local Disk -o force
[21:46] <saru> FoolishOwl, what type of router do you have?
[21:46] <djbpython> erUSUL, possibly, but don't you see the backwardness of such a process?
[21:46] <mikeymike> i suspect it's the /media/Local Disk ?? spaces in linux console?
[21:46] <erUSUL> mikeymike: it would help to see the error you get
[21:46] <lupu> hi... i`m new in ubuntu... how can i make mi sound to work 5+1? i have a realtheck sound card and is working only on 2 channels
[21:46] <mikeymike> erUSUL, usage instructions
[21:46] <ximusic> charakters like ∀ are not displayed in the right way in abiword. How can I fix that?
[21:46] <mikeymike> thats all
[21:46] <saru> FoolishOwl, sometimes when you do a hard reset on your router for Netgear for instance it disables Wireless functions
[21:46] <jerkman> can someone verify that for me please... irc.abjects.net is down from my machine... can anyone verify
[21:46] <djbpython> I've made a file, I want to save it to my filesystem, but before I can I need to jump through these extra hoops
[21:46] <erUSUL> djbpython: i see why it is needed. to prevent linux to become a virus loaded windows clone
[21:46] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, I can't stress enough how awesome and better an open firmware is (I use dd-wrt)
[21:47] <scotsguy> irc.p2p-network.net
[21:47] <FoolishOwl> saru, a Belkin F5D-7230-4002
[21:47] <seidos> scott_ino2: open firmware?  where?
[21:47] <mikeymike> erUSUL, it's just giving useage options... as if the command was issued incorrectly
[21:47] <djbpython> well at least have gedit/nautilus give me a root password prompt like if I were to run synaptic
[21:47] <xguru> scott_ino2:  u asked if i had flash installed.  I double checked because somethings get confused during upgrades.  Sure enough it hadn't been installed
[21:47] <scott_ino2> seidos, google dd-wrt, tomato firmware
[21:47] <saru> scott_ino2, what do you mean by open firmware?
[21:47] <scott_ino2> xguru, yay so does it work now
[21:47] <erUSUL> djbpython: if you want to writte whatever you want just install windows. you and anyone else will be able to writte whatever they please virus trojans malware all wriitting all over your hard drive... but hey at least i can too yay!!!
[21:47] <sdfsdfsd> beatriz
[21:47] <mike45094> I would say thif I chmod a directory and I want everything insite that directory to be touched with the same permissins how do I do that ? ..isn't is like chmod +t 644 or something like that?
[21:47] <FoolishOwl> scott_ino2, my plan is to install dd-wrt on this old Belkin, so I can use it as a wireless ethernet bridge.
[21:47] <scott_ino2> saru, an open router firmware such as dd-wrt
[21:48] <xguru> scott_ino2: yes it does.....just wanted to give u some credit....thanks again
[21:48] <jerkman> can someone verify that for me please... irc.abjects.net is down from my machine... can anyone verify
[21:48] <scott_ino2> xguru, cool beans!
[21:48] <mike45094> if I chmod a directory and I want everything insite that directory to be touched with the same permissins how do I do that ? ..isn't is like chmod +t 644 or something like that?
[21:48] <mikeymike> why is this command not working: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda5 /media/Local Disk -o force <--- i suspect it's the /media/Local Disk ?? spaces in linux console? it just tells me how to use the command. as if i did it wrong?
[21:48] <erUSUL> mikeymike: probably becouse of the space in the mount point name. enclose the name of the mount point in ""
[21:48] <Meekohi> Hello. If I have a .iso but want to install from a USB-key, how would I convert the .iso to a .img ?
[21:48] <mikeymike> thats what i thought
[21:48] <scott_ino2> FoolishOwl, yes that is a nice feature, just read up a LOT about dd-wrt bridging, it brought me many pains, and works better on certain routers
[21:48] <mikeymike> erUSUL, how about using the forward slash delineators?
[21:48] <mikeymike> can you tell me that way
[21:48] <FoolishOwl> I think it's broadcasting a wireless signal, so I guess I could try disconnecting from my regular network and connecting to it wirelessly, although it's actually connected by wire right now.
[21:49] <erUSUL> mikeymike: that's the other option. scape the spaces with \
[21:49] <sheepsy> Hey all, I'm trying to get package statistics from aptitude. I want to know when various packages were installed. Is that possible to get?
[21:49] <jerkman> can someone verify that for me please... irc.abjects.net is down from my machine... can anyone verify
[21:49] <kris_> Hi. I just bought a Dell Mini with Ubuntu pre-installed. I would like to force it to use the b43 driver, instead of the default wl driver, to connect wireless-ly, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Could anyone offer some help, please?
[21:49] <mikeymike> erUSUL, so it would be "/media/Local Disk"    or /media/Local\ Disk     ???

[21:49] <mgv2> how can i work on a text for forum and make a backup of the text in background as auto save?
[21:49] <FoolishOwl> Actually, I'm sure it's broadcasting, because it's the right MAC address.
[21:49] <erUSUL> mikeymike: both should work
[21:49] <mikeymike> awesome thanks
[21:49] <scott_ino2> jerkman, yes it's down
[21:49] <mikeymike> more hassling to come......

[22:11] <jerkman> what is NeXT
[22:12] <razor_X> i loved the old NeXT environment its call AfterStep
[22:12] <sako> Why was I kicked out?
[22:12] <sebsebseb> lucaxxxxxx: no, but there's a ppa for later kernel, why do you want it?
[22:12] <erUSUL> jerkman: google is tyour friend ;)
[22:12] <greenkernel> wallpaper manager?
[22:12] <razor_X> NeXT was its own unix system back in the day jerkman
[22:12] <jrib> sako: because this channel is for support, not trolling
[22:12] <programble> sako: prolly talking about useless stuff
[22:12] <jerkman> aha

[22:13] <razor_X> jerkman google online computer museum
[22:13] <sebsebseb> lucaxxxxxx: installing a newer kernel is unlikely to sot out your Intel graphics card issue
[22:13] <programble> greenkernel: like nitrogen or feh
[22:13] <erUSUL> jerkman: is the father of MacOS X
[22:13] <mikeymike> jerkman, it's just unix based computers steve jobs founded
[22:13] <sebsebseb> lucaxxxxxx: sort out above
[22:13] <erUSUL> jerkman: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Next_Computer
[22:13] <razor_X> they used them widely at my school for a long time
[22:13] <greenkernel> what do you want to do? using multiple workspaces?
[22:13] <Darkebrz> Hi, I am having some problems with Java. A game I play (Minecraft) uses some more advanced features I'm guessing, and it will not work.
[22:13] <razor_X> i loved it
[22:14] <mgv2> do you have suggestion to how to save many images at once in thunderbird?
[22:14] <m0r0n> Does anyone know if I can arrage music by the album track list on Songbird?
[22:14] <lucaxxxxxx> sebsebseb:  aactually ive installed it by hand....... but i want repos... so thats why im asking if any one knows any repos for kernel updates... dont remember the ppa?
[22:14] <Darkebrz> I can get some other Java apps to work though, but not this. I am using sun-java 6
[22:14] <razor_X> hmmm
[22:14] <boscop> erUSUL, guntbert: ubuntu 9.04, jaunty. all the tutorials say, the file must be at /boot/grub/grub.conf
[22:14] <razor_X> Darkebrz, i had to reinstall java to get my frostwire working
[22:14] <programble> greenkernel: different wallpapers for each
[22:14] <Darkebrz> razor_X, I just reinstalled it
[22:14] <Darkebrz> But it still won't work
[22:15] <greenkernel> oh .. I see . . sorry .. I don't know how to do that.
[22:15] <greenkernel> :P
[22:15] <razor_X> Darkebrz, did you fully remove java first?
[22:15] <beam> hello there, can anybody help me find a business channel in xchat?
[22:15] <sebsebseb> lucaxxxxxx: a kernel ppa won't fix your Intel graphics card issues
[22:15] <programble> beam: Server>Channel List
[22:15] <lucaxxxxxx> sebsebseb: it does
[22:15] <erUSUL> boscop: no in jaunty default is grub 1 which uses /boot/grub/menu.lst as config file
[22:15] <programble> beam: List of Channels*
[22:15] <Frudus> can someone /nick thewizord and tell me if it has a password for you please
[22:15] <xps9000> beam, what sort of business channel?
[22:16] <greenkernel> beam > type /list
[22:16] <razor_X> Darkebrz, did you fully remove java first?
[22:16] <greenkernel> :P
[22:16] <Darkebrz> razor_X, I removed all java packages
[22:16] <razor_X> hmmm
[22:16] <programble> greenkernel: suicide...
[22:16] <jerkman> are there any desktop unix distros?
[22:16] <nmvictor> which package provides glib development files?
[22:16] <greenkernel> :P
[22:16] <razor_X> Darkebrz, check and see which version of java your game requires
[22:16] <XDevHald> Has anybody figured out how to set the New Window Focus for 9.04 in compiz?
[22:16] <programble> nmvictor: glib-dev most likely
[22:16] <guntbert> boscop: I have such a file, but is just an old copy of menu.lst
[22:16] <beam> xps9000: well, id like to start my own business, and i want to find people who are familiar with that and have experience
[22:16] <Darkebrz> razor_X, It needs java 6, which I am using
[22:17] <beam> programble: thanks
[22:17] <erUSUL> nmvictor: glibc-dev ?
[22:17] <razor_X> Darkebrz, is it a web game or a downloaded game?
[22:17] <boscop> guntbert: so I should add "password --md5 <code>" to menu.lst at the end?
[22:17] <Darkebrz> It is a web based game
[22:17] <Darkebrz> I am running Firefox
[22:17] <programble> beam: np. you can do a search from there
[22:17] <razor_X> Darkebrz, link me
[22:17] <nmvictor> programble: No such package, erUSUL lemme try that
[22:18] <xps9000> beam, your best bet is to find a network that has channels devoted to whatever you are looking for
[22:18] <nastjuid> hey guys, I've been trying to set up this machine as a proxy with kerberos auth and ldap user info, but when I try `getent passwd` it keeps throwing 'Invalid Credentials'. using cn=administrator, so I don't think it's telling the truth
[22:18] <guntbert> boscop: sorry, no idea - I don't mess with grub :-)
[22:18] <programble> nmvictor: you can make use of the aptitude search function
[22:18] <Darkebrz> http://minecraft.net/play.jsp
[22:18] <tomas_> i cant hear nothing
[22:18] <razor_X> Darkebrz, what browser are you using?
[22:18] <nmvictor> erUSUL: no such too
[22:18] <boscop> erUSUL: should I add "password --md5 <code>" to menu.lst at the end?
[22:18] <Darkebrz> razor_X, just said, Firefox
[22:18] <erUSUL> nmvictor: search for something similar. i'm good bu i still do not have the apt database in my head you know ;)
[22:18] <xps9000> Darkebrz, I am inclined to think you didn't remove Java completely, run java -version in the terminal to check and see if it's still installed
[22:18] <jaggy> is there any tool to compare 2 images for difference?
[22:18] <beam> xps9000: actually im looking for a network that discusses affiliate marketing
[22:18] <programble> nmvictor: aptitude search glib | grep dev
[22:19] <xps9000> beam, marketing in what sector?
[22:19] <erUSUL> boscop: it should work in any position afaik
[22:19] <razor_X> Darkebrz, hmmmm its loading for me do you have the jre 6.16 firefox plugin?
[22:19] <boscop> erUSUL: ok, thanks
[22:19] <cellofellow> anybody know a way to embedd Evince into Firefox (Shiretoko) to view PDF and other documents? Similar functionality with OpenOffice for MSOffice/ODT documents too would be nice.
[22:19] <beam> xps9000: affiliate marketing. Its mostly done online
[22:19] <Darkebrz> razor_X, hm, maybe not. Where do I find this?
[22:19] <Darkebrz> xps9000, It would still be installed, I reinstalled it
[22:20] <cellofellow> and I'm not real interested in mozplugger unless someone can show me how to really make the most of it and have it not override existing plugins.
[22:20] <nmvictor> erUSUL: programble: Actually i am compiling xmms and it couldnt find glib-config so i guess it provided by some glib development file.
[22:20] <beam> xps9000: promoting other peoples products and recieving a comission
[22:20] <razor_X> look in your synaptic manager
[22:20] <erUSUL> nmvictor: install build-essential for a start
[22:20] <erUSUL> !xmms | nmvictor
[22:20] <xps9000> beam, there are so many sub categories in affiliate marketing. Hmm, what sort of products? Technology, makeup? Lawn Mowing?
[22:20] <Darkebrz> razor_X, I have, I removed anything related to java and then reinstalled the needed packages
[22:20] <programble> nmvictor: libglib-dev maybe? or libglib1.2-dev or libglib1.2-dev
[22:20] <erUSUL> !ot | xps9000 beam
[22:20] <rocky_> genii, are you here?
[22:21] <SeaPhor|game> nmvictor, with 9.04 it may be glib2-devel
[22:21] <nmvictor> programble: erUSUL thanks
[22:21] <purpzey> How do I install the jre-plugin for Firefox?
[22:22] <sebsebseb> purpzey: sudo apt-get intsall sun-java6-jre
[22:22] <xps9000> erUSUL, keep your !ot to yourself. I'm trying to help him find the right server.  beam, I cannot help you, since people don't allow ot'ing! So, if you need something, just pvt me. Please.
[22:22] <erUSUL> purpzey: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:22] <jaggy> is there any tool to compare 2 images for difference?
[22:22] <erUSUL> purpzey: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[22:22] <Darkebrz> Really, I need help, I can't get this to load
[22:22] <beam> xps9000: im thinking of web hosting because of the idea of residual income
[22:22] <Darkebrz> If the jre plugin is in restricted extra then I have it
[22:22] <baggar11> purpzey: or sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre
[22:23] <rocky_> I started backing up a drive last night that had bad sectors.  It has been about 19 hours now, the harddrive being backed up is 640 GB sata 3.0 Gb/s and the hardrive that its being backed up to is usb 2.0.......... is it just me, or is this taking to long?
[22:23] <rocky_> btw, I'm using dd
[22:24] <guntbert> xps9000: please move that "finding the rigtht server" to another channel (or to PM)
[22:24] <first> hay guys my friend just installed unbuntu and his sound dont work. what do
[22:24] <erUSUL> rocky_: well usb 2.0 has 30-35 MB/s max... also maybe it is retrying to much on bad sectors ??
[22:24] <rocky_> hmm... maybe
[22:24] <erUSUL> rocky_: maybe gddrescue is more suited to the task
[22:25] <xps9000> guntbert, it's already been done, why are you all over me. Good god, communistic channels
[22:25] <rocky_> well, I'll give it another day... lol.. there is tons of disk access
[22:25] <jaggy> is there any tool to compare 2 images for difference?????
[22:25] <Darkebrz> Okay, I am going to restate my problem. I have a java game that I can't play. I have sun-java-6 packages installed and jre. Can someone help troubleshoot this?
[22:25] <rcscomp> `groups <myuser>` lists a bunch of groups like adm, dialout, etc.  Where can I found out what these groups allow a user to do?
[22:27] <guntbert> rcscomp: most names are rather self-explanatory, members of admin are allowed to sudo
[22:27] <jaggy> Darkebrz, you got sun6-java-plugin installed?
[22:27] <nanotube> Darkebrz: jaggy: it's supposed to be "sun-java6-plugin"
[22:28] <jaggy> nanotube, good point :p
[22:28] <erUSUL> rcscomp: most other groups are to allow user to access some devices.
[22:28] <jaggy> well, anyone can help me with my problem? :(
[22:28] <yor> fffff...does anyone know how to access BIOS from Ubuntu??...
[22:28] <nanotube> jaggy: well, there is "diff" - it will tell you if the images are different or not - same as for any other binary file...
[22:28] <erUSUL> jaggy: byte by byte the same? do md5sum of the images and compare the sums
[22:28] <jaggy> oh, thnx :)
[22:28] <Darkebrz> nanotube, nope, I don't have it. Installing
[22:28] <Darkebrz>  :)
[22:29] <nanotube> Darkebrz: good luck ;)
[22:29] <rocky_> erUSUL, if/when I do that command, what would the syntax be? the partition being backed up is /dev/sda1 and its going to /dev/sdb2
[22:29] <nanotube> jaggy: md5sums will work too - but "diff file1 file2" is simpler :)
[22:29] <kkk> hallo kann mir jemand vielleicht helfen wo installiere ich bei xubuntu exe dateien hinein??
[22:29] <guntbert> yor: you cannot, you will have to reboot
[22:29] <erUSUL> rocky_: what command ? gddrescue ?
[22:29] <nanotube> !de | kkk
[22:29] <guntbert> !de | kkk
[22:29] <rocky_> erUSUL, yes
[22:30] <erikk71> be glad when i get the addition 256 mb
[22:30] <jaggy> nanotube, what about when the images differ in size? :s
[22:30] <erikk71> so ubuntu will run more smooth
[22:30] <nanotube> jaggy: if the files are not byte-by-byte the same, it will tell you that they're different.
[22:30] <erUSUL> rocky_: http://www.atlas-tuesday.com/using-gddrescue-to-save-your-data-part-1
[22:30] <rocky_> oh, erUSUL idk if it is relevant, but the filesystems are ntfs
[22:30] <yor> guntbert, i have ubuntu and i want to boot from CD to install XP. What  can i do?
[22:30] <scott_ino2> my lap is hot from my laptop.. sigh
[22:31] <jaggy> hmm, anyway around that? IFnot, i'll just use perl to quickly resize them in a tmp file
[22:31] <kkk> hello can somone help me plz where must i install exe dateien by xubuntu??
[22:31] <erikk71> with 256 mb it does ok
[22:31] <erikk71> i have to kill pc pnce
[22:31] <guntbert> yor: reboot, enter the bios-config, set it to boot from CD as first device
[22:32] <erikk71> an went to lxde
[22:32] <guntbert> kkk: exe-files are for windows, not for linux
[22:32] <kkk> rofl wine
[22:32] <FirstSgt> Any tutorials (recent) on setting up logetech mic/camera?
[22:32] <yor> "enter the bios-config"? how? i keep pressing DEL and i hear only a stupid deeeeep!!
[22:33] <TheChris80> hello everyone
[22:33] <nanotube> jaggy: well, remember that even if you resize, you have to use exactly the same algorithm, otherwise the bytes are still gonna be different... let me look around for an "image-specific" diff for you.
[22:33] <Darkebrz> Ugh
[22:33] <jaggy> thanks nanotube
[22:33] <Darkebrz> Java still wont work, one second I will give you the error message
[22:33] <nmvictor> i get this error when i start xmms,Error while loading shared libraies libxmms-so.1.Cannot open shared object or file.NO such file or directory.any one know why?
[22:33] <rocky_> hmmmmmmm... erUSUL, I'm pretty sure that dd is still working. the last time I checked, data was being written to the usb drive
[22:33] <nanotube> jaggy: maybe this? http://pdiff.sourceforge.net/
[22:34] <erUSUL> rocky_: i did not say dd was not working... i just said that maybe it would be sllower than a specialized app.
[22:35] <rocky_> ic
[22:35] <erUSUL> rocky_: you can still wait until dd finish
[22:35] <purpzey> erUSUL: Thanks for the info on the java plugin, worked perfectly.
[22:35] <TheChris80> hi people im new in ubuntu since few days
[22:35] <erUSUL> purpzey: no problem
[22:35] <jaggy> i'll give it a shot, thank you nanotube
[22:35] <guntbert> yor: most modern computers want F2 for the setup...
[22:36] <nanotube> jaggy: possibly also the imagemagick library 'compare' function may be helpful (as described in an aside on this page: http://www.phpied.com/image-diff/ )
[22:36] <yor> modern?? pfff..all these years i used DELETE
[22:36] <guntbert> !hi | TheChris80
[22:36] <lemurian> is it me, or are ubuntu fonts generically ugly (even with fixes)?
[22:36] <TheChris80> can anyone help me with my sound devices ?? :-S i working there since hours but without results
[22:36] <yor> thenks anyway!
[22:36] <nanotube> jaggy: you're welcome :)
[22:37] <TheChris80> thank you
[22:37] <yor> i've made plenty of rebbots today for this stupidity, just one more....
[22:37] <guntbert> lemurian: ugliness lies in the eye of the viewer, they say :-)
[22:37] <lemurian> guntbert: you should stop talking now.
[22:37] <scott_ino> yor, everytime you reboot "god" kills a kitten ;-)
[22:37] <TheChris80> i guess if u think its ugly so make your own skin on ubuntu ^^
[22:38] <setuid> Does anyone know of a colorized "configure" program? Similar to colormake, but one that wraps a GNU configure script? Something to output the "Looking for foo... no" style returns in red, for example?
[22:38] <guntbert> lemurian: I beg your pardon? No need to be rude...
[22:38] <scott_ino> lemurian, do you mean the default fonts used for the system or just the linux typeface in general
[22:39] <Darkebrz> UGH, please, I really need help. I need to fix my Java, and it seems that someone helps me then stops leaving me >_>
[22:39] <jrib> Darkebrz: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[22:39] <TheChris80> seems nobody can help me
[22:39] <jrib> TheChris80: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[22:39] <Darkebrz> Okay, I am going to restate my problem. I have a java game that I can't play. I have sun-java-6 packages installed and jre. Can someone help troubleshoot this?
[22:39] <guntbert> !sound | TheChris80
[22:40] <TheChris80> i have problems with my soiund devices (i have 2)
[22:40] <jrib> Darkebrz: what game?
[22:40] <TheChris80> sound
[22:40] <jrib> you guys need to be more specific...
[22:40] <Darkebrz> jrib, it is for Minecraft. minecraft.net/play.jsp for a link
[22:40] <Darkebrz> I guess I have to type out the error it gives me, as uploadscreenshot is down D:
[22:40] <TheChris80> i want hear with my onboard card but speak over my usb headset and i dont know how to make it work properly
[22:40] <brand0con> grub has rendered my windows drive (and linux disk) unbootable.  anyone particularly experienced with grub issues or repairing mbr on a windows disk?
[22:40] <jrib> Darkebrz: imageshack.us, imgur, etc....
[22:40] <guntbert> TheChris80: you could provide some more details too ...
[22:41] <purpzey> Darkebrz: I did the following commands to get that game working: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin and I restarted FireFox and it works.
[22:41] <jrib> Darkebrz: the game works here :)
[22:41] <gusan0r> Hello any from argentine ?
[22:41] <TheChris80>  i want hear with my onboard card but speak over my usb headset and i dont know how to make it work properly
[22:41] <bazhang> !ar
[22:41] <Darkebrz> purpzey, I have all of those (installed restricted extras was the first thing I did) and then I just recently got the java6 plugin but it still gives me the same error
[22:41] <TheChris80> for example over teamspeak i can hear but not speak
[22:41] <zebastian> Anyone here uses LXDE?
[22:42] <DonBrazini> TheChris,explain it again.
[22:42] <jrib> Darkebrz: pastebin the output of: apt-cache policy sun-java6-plugin
[22:42] <zebastian> I can't find the sound control in the lxde menu
[22:42] <XDevHald> Has anybody figured out how to set the New Window Focus for 9.04 in compiz?
[22:42] <brand0con> grub gives errors for both booting my windows xp drive and ubuntu disk.  how can i restore the mbr on a windows drive or make grub boot properly
[22:42] <DonBrazini> DevHald,still figuring it out mate.
[22:42] <TheChris80> i want use my onboard card as output but i want speak over my USB-headset
[22:43] <TheChris80> they are 2 different devices
[22:43] <scott_ino> TheChris80, this would be application specific
[22:43] <DonBrazini> try alsamixer -Dhw
[22:43] <scott_ino> TheChris80, what application
[22:43] <TheChris80> then im too stupid for linux teamspeak
[22:43] <Darkebrz> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu.com/278256/ I will give the error in a second if it helps
[22:43] <TheChris80> Teamspeak
[22:43] <jrib> Darkebrz: pastebin the contents of "about:plugins" when you enter that in your address bar
[22:44] <DonBrazini> type alsamixer -Dhw
[22:44] <DonBrazini> increase the volume
[22:44] <Gusan0r> who in this channel speak spanish? i have and answer...

[22:46] <david__> exit
[22:46] <danellisuk> Possibly udev or devicekit-disks ?
[22:46] <TheChris80> i have same over x-server but that dont fix my problem
[22:47] <danellisuk> Karmic by the way, so think it may be a regression due to the change from hal.
[22:47] <TheChris80> how to tell linux that he use my usb-headset as standard record device
[22:47] <jrib> Darkebrz: hmm, not what I thought then, but let's check anyway: sudo update-java-alternatives -l
[22:47] <erUSUL> !karmic | danellisuk

[22:49] <Neremor> hello! I've successfully set up my 5.1 system with pulseaudio, but now i've a problem: The rear speakers are a bit more away from me than the front speakers. so i would like to make the front speakers have a volume of 0.8 and the rear speakers a volume of 1. I try to do this via the pulseaudio volume control, but i can only move all sliders at once there. if i deactivate the shield over the 6 sliders, i can move each slider for its own, but
[22:49] <Azulreus> nothing happen -.-'.... well well well...
[22:49] <DonBrazini> DEvHald,thanks :)
[22:49] <Neremor> they are reseted to full volume after half a second or so... any ideas why?
