[19:18] <arvind_khadri> KOJV, mount the ubuntu partition and chroot into it then do sudo grub-install

[19:19] <BSG75> nateF: what's your question?
[19:19] <KOJV> arvind_khadri: removing the first slash doesn't change the error. The Ubuntu partition is mounted, how do I  "chroot into it" ?

[19:23] <WildChil17> is there a way so I can run it without sudo? becouse if I run it as sudo startx my x is in root... I don't think this is safe..
[19:23] <adog> Jack_sparrow: i can edit the file. i just cannot save it.
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> kingv, the 1505 is a broadcom chipset right..
[19:23] <kingv> yup
[19:23] <bent_> kingv: Is that a broadcom? Check by typing lspci (or lsusb if it's a usb thing) into the terminal, and look for your card. It might be listed as a broadcom.

[19:23] <adog> how can i edit AND save fstab from commandline?
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> adog, you need sudo or gksudo to have permissions to save the edit
[19:23] <wubrgamer> it's just open access

[19:23] <Flare183> Drew_l: try Control S
[19:23] <arvind_khadri> KOJV, i thought somethin else....well you need to make the usb as a secondary storage device then it'll work
[19:23] <adog> Jack_Sparrrow: sudo does not allow you to save an edit from fstab.
[19:23] <tgillespie_> Drew_l ctrl o with nano

[19:24] <steven> BSG75, I don't kno what mdadm is... but I did setup three mdx partitions... md0, md1, md2

[19:25] <KOJV> Flare183: thanks but I cannot find a "boot syntax" in GParted. Do you mean in the Terminal?
[19:25] <adog> Jack Sparrow: I repeat. it will not work from command line.
[19:25] <Flare183> KOJV: bring up gparted
[19:25] <rajiv_nair> After installing debian lenny also onto my pc my swap drive aint being used in kubuntu. But it works in debian. How do i fix this?
[19:25] <mwe> latitu, if you want it to show in the list of services you need to write a script in /etc/init.d and use update-rc.d to make it run
[19:25] <adog> there is a permssions error, Jack Sparrow.
[19:25] <chimp> When sshed onto a computer, is there a way to send messages to anyone who is using that computer (while they are using the gui)

[19:25] <NateF> ok, my loading is stuck on the install line text, blackbackground with text some text saying"ata 96 in"
[19:25] <Jack_Sparrow> adog, if you run that and still have permissions errors something odd is up
[19:25] <BSG75> steven: post to bin
[19:25] <Flare183> KOJV: and select the Flash Drive you have installed xubuntu onto.
[19:25] <KOJV> Flare183: yes I have Gparted up.
[19:26] <mwe> latitu, /etc/init.d/ is the directory where "service" scripts are kept
[19:26] <BSG75> adog: are you booted into a ro fs?
[19:26] <steven> BSG75, I am sorry I never did that before.. where do I go?
[19:26] <adog> JAck_Sparrow,  yeah, they dont't want people editted fstab.
[19:26] <latitu> mwe so what is more powerful and unstopable. init.d or rc.local?
[19:26] <Flare183> KOJV: have you selected the usb flash drive?
[19:26] <KOJV> Ah, it's on Manage Flags... thanks Flare183!

[19:26] <BSG75> steven: just pm me
[19:26] <Flare183> KOJV: yes exactly
[19:26] <adog> BSG75: can ypoiu repeat? im fairly new to ubuntu/linux.
[19:27] <Bubble_tea> Theres a error when i m runnning f spot
[19:27] <Jack_Sparrow> adog, I just did it from a terminal/command line prompt
[19:27] <mwe> latitu, essentially both are starting a program that can be stopped
[19:27] <BSG75> adog: if you are booted into a readonly file system .. it will not let you change any file .. no matter what you try.. you need to remount your files system with read write
[19:27] <adog> Jack_sparrow: did you boot to command line or are you using a gui?
[19:27] <Bubble_tea> I try reinstall still doesn't fix the problem
[19:27] <engwar>  /msg ubotu etiquette
[19:27] <Flare183> Bubble_tea: then report a bug for it

[19:27] <mwe> latitu, please tell me what you want more presicely
[19:27] <arvind_khadri> KOJV, sorry couldnt help much :(
[19:28] <adog> BSG75: how would i know if i booted into a read only and how do i change the file system to read/write?
[19:28] <KOJV> Thank you very much for your help, arvind_khadri, but I don't fancy that long a tutorial with text line commands. The GParted way given by Flare183 was much easier. :)  Thanks anyhow for your time!
[19:28] <adog> Jack_sparrow: as i said above. boot into command line.. and it will NOT work. i promise.
[19:28] <NateF> can anyone help me with loading proablems with the Ubuntu Alternative CD installing from text
[19:28] <Flare183> KOJV: your welcome
[19:28] <BSG75> adog: cd /etc .. then touch me
[19:28] <KOJV> Yeah, thanks a lot Flare183!
[19:28] <BSG75> adog: easiest way
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> adog, I have done it many times..dont know what to tell you
[19:29] <bent_> NateF: What's the problem?
[19:29] <NateF> ok
[19:29] <mwe> latitu, a program running with root privs is potentially very powerful by nature
[19:29] <arvind_khadri> adog, check fstab
[19:29] <adog> JAck_sparrow: you are incorrect.  goodle edit fstab and you will see what im talking about. it will work from a x windows..
[19:29] <KOJV> Thanks everybody for spending time helping in here, special thanks to arvind_khadri for taking a lot of time and special thanks to Flare183 for bringing the solution to my problem. I'll try and boot Xubuntu from my USB hard drive now... bye.
[19:29] <adog> BSG75 'then touch me'?
[19:29] <NateF> i install the alternative CD from text, its stuck with the loading text before you select your langue and keyboard layout
[19:29] <BSG75> adog: yeah .. just type .. touch me
[19:29] <BSG75> adog: does it give you an error?
[19:29]  * Flare183 smiles

[19:30] <steven> BSG75, did you get my PM ?
[19:30] <BSG75> poseidon: usually yeah

I have a desktop running Windows XP, and I can see the shares of my linux laptop. However, I can't see any shares from my laptop, so I can't access the windows shares. It's odd to me that it only works one way, because I can see the desktop's shares from the other Windows PCs.
[19:30] <oliver_> Hey, I have Ubuntu 6.02 and I am going to install Mac OS X. I want to install it so I no longer have Ubuntu, wil it work?

[19:30] <bent_> oliver_: Yup, just format over ubuntu in the OSX installer, taking up all space.
[19:31] <Flare183> Clinteger: try using the desktop's IP address.

[19:31] <Clinteger> its like the client part of samba doesnt work.
[19:31] <Flare183> ummm
[19:31] <arvind_khadri> bazhang, night
[19:32] <latitu> mwe just having info
[19:32] <Clinteger> it can see its *own* samba share by typing in smb://<IP_ADDRESS> but even then its still not in the list
[19:32] <NateF> i need to install the alternative though
[19:32] <Daniel1981> just need a bump in the right direction:S
[19:32] <BSG75> poseidon: more than likely your mbr will be rewritten and grub will crash... so you will either lose access to the systems or you will lose access to your opensuse

[19:32] <BSG75> adog: bingo
[19:33] <adog> BSG75, please tell me you have the answer :)
[19:33] <BSG75> adog: now you need to mount your / file system as read write
[19:33] <bent_> Daniel1981: Your printer appears on a list as supported, but it dosen't have the same name. I don't know if that is correct.

[19:33] <BSG75> adog: lol it's not hard ..
[19:33] <Flare183> Clinteger: have you tried smbtree?
[19:33] <BSG75> adog: one sec .. let me just quickly look at steven's
[19:33] <adog> BSG75, finding the ansswer on google is hard..  how would i mount my file system?

[19:33] <Rods_Tiger> oliver_ are you reinstalling OS X from the installer, anew?
[19:33] <steven> BSG75, that 077 uuid is mapped to my swap partition   on /dev/md0
[19:33] <adog> BSG75, ok, i will wait .
[19:34] <Daniel1981> bent_:  thanks.. i will read a little and then return;)
[19:34] <BSG75> steven: it's trying to boot from your raid .. from what I can tell .. it doesn't find a img so moving on to boot from normal .. I wouldn't worry but get someone to look into it in details when they get a moment
[19:34] <Clinteger> Flare183, smbtree is what lmao
[19:34] <BSG75> steven: I would move my swap away from a raid .. it's really a waste of raid space
[19:34] <mwe> latitu, well having a program regisered as a service doesn't make it more powerful. the nature of the program itself determines how powerful it is.

[19:58] <bent_> earthmeLon: Maybe it's a rouge plugin?
[19:58] <stder1> earthmeLon: what kind of borders/outlines are you talking about? any specific apps?
[19:58] <bent_> Red-Sox: Do you have a broadcom? I have the same problem too.

[19:59] <stder1> earthmeLon: I've had similar problems, but with specific apps like some under wine, some tunnelling over x... haven't got to the bottom of it yet though
[19:59] <genii> Stepa1: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=380394  may be useful

[20:08] <bent_> earthmeLon: Okay. Well, I'm not very good at partitions (seeing how I've destroyed a test computer... really)... maybe someone else can help.
[20:08] <Jack_Sparrow> earthmeLon, Are you running livecd to try and read it?
[20:09] <adog> is there any trick to installing sata cards with sata drives in ubuntu?  i put the card in, plugged the drive in..  i see the drive under SYSTEM->ADMIN->DISKS,but it doesnt give me the option to format.  it only says "There aren't known partitions in this disk".
[20:09] <earthmeLon> No, I am running my current Ubuntu installation.
[20:09] <earthmeLon> jack_sparrow No, I am running my current Ubuntu installation.

[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> adog, plug in sata cards usually require a driver and most are labeled windows only
[20:09] <iRelinquish> adob, you have to use gparted
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> earthmeLon, what error when you try to mount it
[20:10] <arex> Any ideas where to start troubleshooting sound problems?
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> arex, /join #Alsa
[20:10] <adog> IRelinquish: gparted? is that terminal?
[20:10] <arex> Thanks
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[20:10] <iRelinquish> its not
[20:10] <adog> an application?

[20:11] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)

[20:16] <earthmeLon> Jack_Sparrow:  NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Invalid argument. The device '/dev/sda2' doesn't have a valid NTFS.
[20:17] <frost0> iRelinquish, i am splicing together an xbox cable and a female usb cable to attempt to get xbox linux on my xbox. When I stripped them apart, all cables except the yellow xbox cable were supposed to match up.....everything matches up except on the usb there is a blue cable rather than a white? what should i do...is it safe to put those together?
[20:17] <iRelinquish> haha alex6691
[20:17] <iRelinquish> did you install the program yet?
[20:17] <mario> Hi, I'm having some problems with audio, hardy heron, and my macbook. Is anyone available to help me?
[20:17] <adog> Guys/Girls:   Does it matter what file system i use on a new drive if im sharing it with OS X or windows?
[20:17] <earthmeLon> adog, no
[20:17] <adog> Can i still wit EXT3? i'd imagine so.
[20:17] <XedLos> anyone know how to get the transparent bar behind the widgets on Screenlets
[20:17] <iRelinquish> there is no need for the yellow cable to be used
[20:17] <iRelinquish> actually the xbox doesn't even use it
[20:17] <Jack_Sparrow> earthmeLon, one sec.. let me look up something
[20:17] <Araldia> do i need to reinstall if recovery doesnt work?
[20:17] <earthmeLon> adog You will want to set up a samba server on Ubuntu and it doesnt matter what filesystem you are using
[20:17] <iRelinquish> it can be left un connected
[20:17] <Alex6691> iRelinquish i have installed ksynaptics what now?
[20:18] <erUSUL> adog: no ext3 is not supported out of the box by wndows or os X
[20:18] <iRelinquish> does it let you configure your synaptics card?
[20:18] <erUSUL> adog: the only true multiplatform fs is fat32 spite its limitations
[20:18] <mario> audio on the internal speakers works great but the audio out doesn't work at all
[20:19] <mnemo> erUSUL: thanks, but my file is in .off format? can I convert it to .avi somehow?
[20:19] <mnemo> .ogg
[20:19] <earthmeLon> adog, erUSUL is correct, but since Ubuntu is acting as a server, it translates the data for you, or at least that is what I've found in the past.  It's just like if you have an HTTD running on your server, on a ext3 partition (which Windows doesnt support) but you can still access the data with your browser in windows :D
[20:19] <adog> erUSUL: but if it's running on a linux machine, it doesnt matter, right?  SAMBA will take care of the rest?
[20:19] <arex> Hello. I have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto but still have no sound. How should I start troubleshooting?
[20:20] <erUSUL> adog: i understand it incorrectly i thought it was a filesystem for a portable hard drive; sorry
[20:20] <adog> erUSUL: no worries.
[20:20] <Jack_Sparrow> earthmeLon, Ubuntu does not have much in the way of ntfs repair tools..   check out  http://www.hiren.info/pages/bootcd
[20:20] <adog> Is creaitng a RAID in ubuntu easy?  ive never done it before.
[20:20] <n2diy> When I click on a link to a file at an ftp mirror, the DL starts ok, but when I try and get the file using wget, I'm getting a "login incorrect" error?
[20:20] <Noah0504> Can anyone tell me why I can't seem to find a .Mac option in Thunderbird?  I keep reading about it, but I'm seeing nothing.
[20:20] <Alex6691> iRelinquish, it comes up with a box saying, Shared memory not accessable please add the option SHMconfig ''ON'' into the touchpad section of etc/x11/xorg.conf
[20:20] <pclync1> are there virus on ubuntu? and if so are there anti-virus programs?

[20:21] <frost0> iRelinquish, i know, i'm not using the yellow cable...but, the remaining cables do not match up....everything except a white xbox cable and a blue usb cable match...
[20:21] <iRelinquish> so do just that
[20:21] <unop> adog, what matter is the file sharing service being able to read of the filesystem
[20:21] <earthmeLon> Jack_Sparrow, thanks.  Let me read up on this :D
[20:21] <Alex6691> How do i do that?
[20:21] <Jack_Sparrow> earthmeLon, wish I could do more.. good luck
[20:21] <iRelinquish> alex6691 pm me
[20:21] <iRelinquish> frost0 i dont know they matched up for me
[20:21] <adog> I must say, ive tried a few versions of ubuntu over the years and it's always been a nightmare and ive always just deleted them.. but this latest one (6.06) is amazing. almost everything is working out of the box!
[20:21] <iRelinquish> pm me
[20:21] <Araldia> do i reinstall if i cant boot in recovery or normal boot?
[20:21] <iRelinquish> frost0
[20:22] <iNetScanner> #ubuntu-de
[20:22] <Sinnerman> adog: 6.06 ain't hardly the latest version. we're at 7.10, 8.04 is going to be released in a couple of days :P.
[20:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Araldia, YOu might be able to fix it live.. and live will let you recover your files to usb etc even if you end up reinstalling
[20:22] <justme> hello all
[20:22] <adog> Sinnerman:  but it is for Server, no?
[20:22] <frost0> iRelinquish, it is really weird.
[20:22] <justme> can someone help me with my sound card issue
[20:22] <Araldia> thanks Jack_Sparrow, its a fresh install crashed after ndiswrapper
[20:23] <frost0> iRelinquish, only this would happen to me... :)
[20:23] <LogicalDash>  !ask | justme
[20:23] <Araldia> so nothing to recover
[20:23] <lz1gjd> !vpn
[20:23] <ubotu> justme: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[20:23] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[20:23] <Sinnerman> adog: they keep the same version numbers as far as i'm aware. maybe im wrong though.
[20:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Araldia, reinstall makes sense on that .
[20:23] <iNetScanner> hello
[20:23] <adog> Sinnerman, for Realz?  imma go check.
[20:23] <iRelinquish> have you checked xbox-scene frost0?
[20:23] <iRelinquish> i want to say thats where i did it
[20:23] <frost0> yeah
[20:23] <Araldia> Jack_Sparrow: thank you. hope it works this time, 5th install today, using edgy now
[20:23] <frost0> i've seen multiple tutorials
[20:23] <frost0> nothing is really helping
[20:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Araldia, I never cared for edgy...
[20:24] <frank_b> does anyone here play wolfenstein: enemy territory?
[20:24] <Araldia> Jack_Sparrow: couldn't get the gutsy install from linux mag to work after install
[20:24] <frost0> frank_b, alot...i run a couple servers.
[20:24] <lz1gjd> what is the easiest and quickest way to connect to a vpn in ubuntu hardy ?
[20:24] <iRelinquish> alex6691?
[20:24] <java-joe> can someone help me with my sound card issue
[20:24] <Noah0504> adog: 7.10 is the latest for the server.  They have the same release cycle.
[20:25] <J-Unit> does any1 no of a pdf file that goes into detail with images on each feature of cinelerra?
[20:25] <Alex6691> Yeah?
[20:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Araldia, did you get it to install but on boot get a black screen.?
[20:25] <java-joe> my sounds seems to be working but my mic is not
[20:25]  * rangef1nder is away (auto-away after 2hrs of inactivity) - (02:26 pm)
[20:25] <iRelinquish> my mic doesn't work either in ubuntu
[20:25] <adog> Noah0504: oh, i didnt see that for some reason when downloading.  that blows i just installed an old version. is it easy to update/grade?
[20:25] <Araldia> Jack_Sparrow: no it had no users installed. adduser and useradd wouldnt work and xstart loaded a ubuntu default with no privs
[20:25] <frost0> iRelinquish, do you think i should just match them up?
[20:25] <KOJV> unop, the error message appears to be German to me.
[20:25] <iRelinquish> sometimes things don't work its reality
[20:25] <Living-Hell> Hi, can anyone help me with my ET? I don't have Sound (even without using TS² ;))
[20:25] <iRelinquish> frost0 let me google it for you
[20:26] <KOJV> Okay, so I\m booting the Live CD... installed Xubuntu to an USB drive and set the partitions flag to Boot. But still I get this crazy, German ? error... though the installation is Swedish. It says, on a blank DOS page: Fehler beim Laden Betriebssystem.  Thanks for helping!
[20:26] <n2diy> When I click on a link to a file at an ftp mirror, the DL starts ok, but when I try and get the file using wget, I'm getting a "login incorrect" error?
[20:26] <arex> Hello. I have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto but still have no sound. How should I start troubleshooting?
[20:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Araldia, really odd...  but you entered a user during the install?
[20:26] <frost0> iRelinquish, ths
[20:26] <unop> KOJV, you should probably ask what that means in #ubuntu-de
[20:26] <frost0> thx*
[20:26] <KOJV> Okay unop.
[20:26] <Araldia> Jack_Sparrow: yes indeed. tried twice
[20:26] <frank_b> frost0, does your screen repeatedly gets darker on his own and only gets back to normal if you try to calibrate the brightness (who's value has not changed although you have a darker image)?
[20:26] <Noah0504> adog: Yes, but there might be a couple extra steps upgrading that far ahead.  If you're really just using Ubuntu for a server, I would just stick with 6.06.  That's what I use for mine.
[20:26] <hischild> KOJV, the message please? I might be able to translate.
[20:26] <Living-Hell> hmmm please help me =)
[20:26] <KOJV> hischild: ehler beim Laden Betriebssystem
[20:26] <frost0> frank_b, that has happened once i think...it was just bad nvidia drivers  and overheating i think... i just bought a pci fan and updated drivers i think?
[20:27] <adog> Noah0504, yeah, web server and file server.
[20:27] <adog> and ftp
[20:27] <KOJV> hischild: Fehler beim Laden Betriebssystem
[20:27] <iNetScanner> #ubuntu-de
[20:27] <hischild> iNetScanner, i asked him the message so i could translate it for him.
[20:27] <frank_b> frost0, ok, thanks
[20:27] <Noah0504> adog: Yeah, if it's working, don't worrying about upgrading until 8.10.  I think that's the next LTS release.
[20:27] <iRelinquish> frost0, i can't my speed is so slow
[20:27] <hischild> KOJV, it means it failed to load kernel/filesystem.
[20:28] <MrGnu> Hello all,  I was able to get the dual boot to work.  I just simply disconnected the drive that Ubuntu kept going afte.  whether I stil have the old ubuntu will be something else.  Can I do a post install migration from my old ubuntu into the new, or will I simply have to reinstall the apps?
[20:28] <Cerberus> Hello everybody

[20:31] <Cerberus> i always used to use Winblows but since 2 weeks i had to use ubuntu (winblows wouldn't install anymore) and i gotta say i love it . especially since if you have a problem in windows you gotta search for days without much result . with ubuntu i just put the problem in google and find a detailed solution
[20:31] <java-joe> any pointers on getting my microphone to work .. the sound is working fine
[20:32] <iRelinquish> alex6691, your going to have to give me a minute

[20:32] <TuxIc1> Cereberus: Welcome!

[20:38] <arex> Hello. I have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto but still have no sound. How should I start troubleshooting?
[20:38] <Joeseph> please help? normally I'm not this desperate, but I'm really angry that tihs is happening, my desktop should not be taking up half my porocessing power. xorg is gnome related, yes?
[20:38] <frogscott> I need some help installing simple fonts for cedega to make a game function...any takers?
[20:38] <Odd-rationale> anirudhbsg: if you install in text mode, you will have a gui when you finish and reboot
[20:38] <unop> anirudhbsg, not within the install session no
[20:39] <fimp> hi. I am trying to install Ubuntu 7.10 on my sisters laptop. But when trying to resize the ntfs-partition with gparted it only allows me to make the partition 8mb bigger. I cannot make it smaller. Do you know why this is?
[20:39] <Odd-rationale> anirudhbsg: both the livecd and the alternative cd will instal the exact same thing. only the install will be graphical or text mode respectively
[20:39] <adog> So i set my new drive up, ran gparted, set as ext3.. rebooted but when i got to my file browser and click the drive i get 2 errors "device/xx/xx is not removable" and "could not execute pmount"
[20:39] <Odd-rationale> fimp: try defraging it and try again...
[20:40] <frogscott> I need some help installing simple fonts for cedega to make a game function...any takers?
[20:40] <Joeseph> anyone? I'm trying not to be annoying, but I want an answer.
[20:40] <KOJV> fimp, try doing a full SPACE defrag with O&O Defrag or the like, in Windows, to ensure that no data is spread beyond the needed space on the drive. This should allow you to shrink the NTFS partition later.
[20:40] <anirudhbsg> thanks .....
[20:40] <Odd-rationale> Joeseph: no, xorg is not gnome related...
[20:41] <Odd-rationale> Joeseph: not gnome specific, i mean
[20:41] <fimp> KOJV: cannot I use the defrag tool that comes with windows?
[20:41] <Joeseph> Odd-rationale: what is Xorg? and why is it eating all my Cpu?
[20:41] <tgillespie_> Joeseph your gui system
[20:42] <miku19> Hello all
[20:42] <Odd-rationale> Joeseph: i don't know why it is using so much of you cpu, xorg is the x window system that draws all the gui stuff...
[20:42] <platyhelminth> salut GNUtoo
[20:42] <GNUtoo> platyhelminth, salut
[20:42] <hischild> Joeseph, xorg is the backend that gnome uses to show you all the graphical stuff
[20:42] <thingy> Joeseph: Xorg is the GUI system and if its taking up CPU, then your are probably doing some gui intensive, e.g. playing a video ?
[20:42] <aLeSD_> hi all
[20:42] <fuqi> hi, can anyone help me with HDMI Audio (Amd780g) and Ubuntu 7.10 ?
[20:42] <aLeSD_> what's the name of the package to have docks like in mac os x ?
[20:43] <Odd-rationale> !info awn | aLeSD_
[20:43] <ubotu> alesd_: Package awn does not exist in gutsy
[20:43] <aLeSD_> wow
[20:43] <aLeSD_> thanks
[20:43] <KOJV> fimp:  you can try with Windows Defrag, but that's not as effiencent as a full SPACE defrag. The latter will put all used blocks in a row at the beginning of the drive, so to free up sequential space at the end, in opposition of just defragging all files.
[20:43] <miku19> J'aurais une petite question pour les français. La version de Nexuiz présente dans Ajouter/supprimer est une vieille version, comment lui dire qu'il y en a une nouvelle dispo ?

[20:44] <adog> can anyone help with my questions above?
[20:44] <earthmeLon> What adog?
[20:44] <Joeseph> Odd-rationale: thingy: all I have up is pidgin... is there a way to rewstart it? Sorry, it's really hard to work under this too
[20:44] <crimsun> arex: please download and run the alsa-info.sh script mentioned at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems
[20:44] <unop> inet, you could try here and in #ubuntu-server
[20:45] <Odd-rationale> MooIsh: correct. you "shouldn't" lose date. but be sure to defrag first and backup just in case
[20:45] <arex> crimsun: Thanks.
[20:45] <adog> earthmeLon:So i set my new drive up, ran gparted, set as ext3.. rebooted but when i got to my file browser and click the drive i get 2 errors "device/xx/xx is not removable" and "could not execute pmount
[20:45] <MooIsh> Odd-rationale: do you have any idea how to get 'drivers' for a Dell Photo Printer 540 ?
[20:45] <Odd-rationale> Joeseph: right-click the pidgin icon in the tray and select quit

[20:46] <dave_h_d> Hi, i just got my self an ubuntu box with a provider, i pointed my DNS A records to the ip via my domain name interface, what do i need to do now on my ubuntu box to have it so that i can point other domains to it as in: ns.domain.com and ns2.domain.com
[20:46] <erUSUL> !fstab | adog
[20:46] <ubotu> adog: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[20:46] <dave_h_d> thank you in advance
[20:46] <earthmeLon> adog, what happens when you run: sudo mount -a
[20:46] <Odd-rationale> Joeseph: did you want to restart pidgin or X ? (sorry)
[20:46] <googlah> can I convert a NTFS disk into a ext3 without loosing data?
[20:46] <Odd-rationale> MooIsh: no i don't. sorry. try searching the ubuntu forums...
[20:46] <adog> earthmeLon: nothing. back to command line
[20:46] <unop> adog, also, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=305684
[20:46] <Odd-rationale> googlah: not that I know of.
[20:47] <Joeseph> Odd-rationale: Xorg: it's eating up my cpu, notp pidgin
[20:47] <speedhunt3r> hey how do you run a .bin file in terminal?
[20:47] <mutable> What can be useful if I separate / and /home (apart from backup) ?
[20:47] <MooIsh> Odd-rationale: I only see a guy "Name141" asking about his printer also, no replies.  I guess it's not supported?
[20:47] <mutable> is than system faster?
[20:47] <unop> speedhunt3r, chmod +x /path/to/file.bin;  /path/to/file.bin
[20:47] <earthmeLon> hehe, unop wins:D
[20:47] <googlah> but I can have it mounted and read and write to it? on a production server. Odd-rationale? :)
[20:47] <Odd-rationale> Joeseph: to restart X do ctrl+alt+bksp. you will lose all unsaved data. so quit pidgin first.
[20:47] <unop> mutable, sure, always a good idea
[20:48] <Odd-rationale> googlah: yes you can read/write to ntfs

[20:49] <XedLos> I just installed Heron and wanted a dock wich do you guys recomend?

[20:49] <Cyberai> hey, I have a seriously weird problem here. When I launch a terminal window, no prompt appears and after a few minutes the window goes dark (inactive). I assume the gnome-terminal app is hanging. Is there a config file I can kill to force it back to defaults and possibly fix it?
[20:49] <arex> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/991176
[20:49] <XedLos> anyone recomend a dock?
[20:49] <adog> so why does ubuntu automatically assume that a new drive is removable and use pmount?
[20:50] <dudeeee34> hi guys
[20:50] <dudeeee34> i am on a quest to turn my ubuntu into a mac
[20:50] <gjo> irc.oltreirc.net
[20:50] <earthmeLon> lol dudeeee34
[20:50] <dudeeee34> but i need a dock
[20:50] <dudeeee34> anyone got any ideas?
[20:50] <ech> lol wut?
[20:50] <unop> adog, ubuntu tries to mount a drive that is not already mounted using pmount (because pmount does not need root permissions) -- and pmount only works with removable drives, in your case the drive isnt
[20:50] <XedLos> i also want a dock which do u guys recomend
[20:50] <Speedy> dudeeee34,  the doc is just annoying
[20:50] <Speedy> but if you MUST have one
[20:51] <Odd-rationale> dudeeee34: google mac4lin
[20:51] <Speedy> try cairo-dock
[20:51] <KOJV> Okay, so I'm booting the Live CD... installed Xubuntu to an USB drive and set the partition's flag to Boot. But still I get an error... failed to load kernel. What to do? Thanks for helping!
[20:51] <dudeeee34> i have mac4lin
[20:51] <crimsun> arex: 1) remove the options snd-hda-intel model=acer  line from /etc/modprobe.d/*
[20:51] <dudeeee34> but they didnt give me a dock
[20:51] <crimsun> arex: 2) install linux-backports-modules-$(uname -r)
[20:51] <Odd-rationale> dudeeee34: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin
[20:51] <adog> unop: i see. so every drive i install that is not removable i will need to manually mount it?
[20:51] <dudeeee34> I have the theme set up
[20:51] <mutable> Is it possible to install WinXP on LVM (sorry, but enviroment around me pushes me to have it) ?
[20:51] <unop> adog, well, if you have a non-removable drive, it makes sense to have the system mount it, not you - so just put an entry for it in /etc/fstab - and you wont have any problems
[20:52] <dudeeee34> Also how do i change the icons?
[20:52] <Odd-rationale> XedLos: I reccomend awn (avant-window-navigator)

[20:53] <unop> linkmaster03, package names are case sensitive - try using all small case
[20:54] <Odd-rationale> I thought awn is in the gutsy repo? no? why ubotu cannot find it...?
[20:54] <earthmeLon> I use foobar2000 in windows and haven't found something to replace it on ubuntu. I''ve tried amarok and really hate the interface. Any suggestions?
[20:54] <unop> linkmaster03, also have a look on here - http://packages.ubuntu.com/

[20:55] <prakriti> but it doesn't start by default, I still have to start it by hand after every boot
[20:55] <unop> Odd-rationale, it's called something else, awn-manager i think :)

[21:17] <Zoem> Do buttons need to be mapped in xorg.conf before they will be recognized by xev
[21:17] <Zoem> ?
[21:17] <KOJV> thebigham: Ubuntu has great support for network cards from the live cd already. Are you sure the wifi is physically enabled? There's a button or switch on your laptop.
[21:17] <crimsun> arex: any of the playback options
[21:18] <gogeta> :P
[21:18] <n-iCe> can anyone check http://www.sadasdasd.pastebin.com/m208bb956

[21:20] <Speedy> n-iCe,  check wifi isnt disabled
[21:20] <Zoem> dudeeee34: .deb
[21:20] <Killy> So you say ubuntu 7.10 is totally safe if I install it on my laptop?
[21:20] <KOJV> n-iCe: I don't know what it is I'm looking at here... at your pastebin...
[21:20] <dudeeee34> .deb is like .exe?
[21:20] <Speedy> dudeeee34,  can you explain specificly what you mean?
[21:20] <rainwalker> how do I get to the print queue?
[21:21] <Zoem> no, it's like something you use to install stuff
[21:21] <Zoem> there is nothing like .exe
[21:21] <tomd123> dudeeee34: no, .deb is more like .msi
[21:21] <gogeta> dudeeee34 its like a msi yea
[21:21] <dudeeee34> I want to know like .deb is like .exe then what is like .zip and stuff

[21:21] <Jill_Not_Jack> Hi, Quick question. I just got a new laptop. Both 32 and 64-bit versions of Hardy Heron will install. I would like to use the 64 bit version because it's lightning quick! Can I still run 32-bin software on it, or will I be limited in what I will be able to install on the 64-bit Version?
[21:21] <gogeta> dudeeee34 .tgz .bz2 .zip

[21:22] <KOJV> dudeeee34: Linux doesn't use like .exe... the programs just have names and instead of .zip there's .gzip which often contains a .tar (tarball, like an uncompressed archive).
[21:22] <rainwalker> Speedy: that takes me to the printer settings, not the print queue
[21:22] <Zoem> Do buttons need to be mapped in xorg.conf before they will be recognized by xev?
[21:22] <gogeta> KOJV  linux can handel standerd formats to

[21:23] <Whatsinaname> Hello,  I was looking for help with samba.  I have it set up, but I am having problems.  I have a shared folder, but when users put files in, it retains them as owner.  others can not change or delete.  I want all files in this folder to be accessable for edit and delete.
[21:23] <Killy> Speedy, so if I install ubuntu 7.10 on my laptop, it would totally safe and my hdd wouldn't die? ;)
[21:23] <Killy> would be*
[21:23] <rainwalker> Speedy: thank you
[21:23] <Shizzo> Why would your hd die?
[21:23] <Speedy> Killy, you need to re-read the bug report and fully understand it
[21:23] <Speedy> Shizzo,  the hdd killer "bug"
[21:24] <Killy> Speedy oki thankie
[21:24] <unop> Killy, your hdd won't physically die by you installing an OS on it.. but you should backup any data before you partition the disk
[21:24] <Shizzo> oh.  Like, it bricks your machine?
[21:24] <Speedy> killy, chances are, your hdd would have a lesser life span, but there is a workaround
[21:24] <Zoem> Do buttons need to be mapped in xorg.conf before they will be recognized by xev?
[21:24] <unop> Speedy, eh?
[21:24] <Speedy> unop, eh?
[21:24] <achandrashekar> Im looking to build an external dns server for my domain, anyone have a good resource for how to?
[21:25] <Scunizi> Zoem: which buttons?
[21:25] <unop> Speedy, why would a hdd ave a "lesser life span" if you installed linux on it?
[21:25] <Zoem> Scunizi: 6-8
[21:25] <zionpsyfer> Just make sure you do the workaround..  I waited a few months before remembering that bug and racked up >100000 on my load cycle count
[21:25] <Scunizi> Zoem: wacom tablet.. keyboard.. ?
[21:25] <Speedy> unop, ubuntu doesnt do anything to prevent agressive powersaving features from wearing most laptop hdd's down
[21:25] <nxusr> unop, any suggestions on getting my ati remoter wonder plus working?
[21:26] <gogeta> unop i think hes talking abought that hold bug/rumer on harddrives
[21:26] <jontux> j'ai un probleme avec steam amis quelqu'un pour m'aider ?
[21:26] <unop> achandrashekar, see the bind9 howto on tldp.org
[21:26] <Zoem> Scunizi: umm, yes, I have a keyboard, no wacom
[21:26] <Speedy> zionpsyfer,  doesnt the workaround casue excessive heat though?
[21:26] <zionpsyfer> Speedy: we may be talking about different workarounds.  I just run hdparm -B 255
[21:26] <Zoem> Scunizi: the mouse is Logitech G5 with scroll, middle, tilt, and a side button
[21:27] <jontux>  I have a problem with steam amis nobody for help me
[21:27] <Zoem> Scunizi: 8 buttons total
[21:27] <tul> hi everybisy!
[21:27] <Shizzo> Is it a problem with ever version of *buntu?  The hd problem?
[21:27] <Scunizi> Zoem: many people (including me) use "Key Touch" it's in the repos.. it doesn't do anything to xorg.. some keyboard will just not work with their additional keys..
[21:27] <Speedy> zionpsyfer,  what exactly did that do for you?
[21:27] <arex> I have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto but still have no sound. How should I start troubleshooting?
[21:27] <Speedy> arex,  i have intel sound, it worked out of the box
[21:27] <Shizzo> Does ubuntu use ALSA or Pulse?
[21:27] <Speedy> what you got?
[21:27] <Zoem> Scunizi: this is a mouse thing...
[21:28] <Speedy> Shizzo,  alsa
[21:28] <tul> does any1 knows how to remove "Link to " prefix from multiple folders name?
[21:28] <username> ALSA I think
[21:28] <arex> I have Intel HDA
[21:28] <Speedy> arex,  laptop?
[21:28] <Prefix> lol highlight.
[21:28] <arex> Yes
[21:28] <Speedy> what make

[21:28] <tul> does any1 knows how to remove "Link to " prefix from multiple folders name?
[21:28] <Scunizi> Zoem  hang on looking for a link for you.
[21:28] <zionpsyfer> Speedy: My hdd no longer cycles off and my load_cycle_count has stopped climbing like a rocket.  It hasn't really hurt my battery life either as the hdd could never really stay in the PS mode
[21:29] <johnbran> has anyone been able to get the xrdp package on hardy to work?
[21:29] <akhilesh> hi
[21:29] <Jill_Not_Jack> Whatsinaname: Providing your samba shares are not sitting on a FAT32 drive, I think what you are looking for is called a mask
[21:29] <cameron122000> lzlgjd: that's just your video
[21:29] <Jill_Not_Jack> Whatsinaname: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/how-do-i-set-permissions-to-samba-shares.html Check this out
[21:29] <lz1gjd> cameron122000: dont think so
[21:29] <Shizzo> mmmm...root beer float
[21:29] <Whatsinaname> jill_Not_Jack thank you
[21:29] <cameron122000> is it the same resolution as your screen?
[21:29] <arex> Speedy: Compal IFL90+
[21:30] <lz1gjd> cameron122000:  no, its from a dvd
[21:30] <Speedy> zionpsyfer,  sounds interesting, i am yet to implement a fix to the problem, i have had this laptop for 4 days and already the load cyle  count is at 5739
[21:30] <Speedy> i'm sure thats insanely high?
[21:30] <lz1gjd> cameron122000: but should be rescaled ? to fit the screen using some algorithm
[21:30] <cameron122000> yeah when I watch from DVD's that happens too
[21:30] <Speedy> for the amount of time i've had the machine
[21:30] <Killy> well I guess I'd install ubuntu anyway, I still have a 2 years warranty on the laptop :)
[21:30] <cameron122000> it's because your monitor doesn't have scaling built into it like TV's
[21:30] <zionpsyfer> Speedy: ouch. :/
[21:30] <Speedy> killy you can apply the workaround to the problem
[21:31] <lz1gjd> cameron122000: but the player should do the scaling itself
[21:31] <Speedy> zionpsyfer,  run that command by me again
[21:31] <DriveTrax> .......... I LOVE IT!  ..... I Dunno what it is doing, but..... I LOVE IT  !
[21:31] <Jill_Not_Jack> Whatsinaname: No worries mate. I had the same issue a while back. I couldn't resolve my issue though as my shares were sitting on an external USB 2.0 FAT32 disk. It turns out that FAT32 does not support emulation for UNIX permissions sufficiently to allow SAMBA to manage control of read/write functions.
[21:31] <akhilesh> im new to ubuntu ... i have a usb bluetooth receiver .. had software for it on windows and i could sync contacts and stuff .. its a regular bluetooth usb device .. gets recognised in all windows machines .. how do i get it to work on ubuntu .. it doesnt seem to find it
[21:31] <zionpsyfer> Speedy: I just make a shell script in /etc/init.d that runs hdparm -B 255 /dev/sda
[21:31] <Scunizi> Zoem: Here's a couple of links.. One is for a bug report and the other seems to explain how to get most things working.. http://tektix.org/blog/linux-howtos/ubuntu-and-logitech-g5-refresh ...... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/83571
[21:31] <Speedy> zionpsyfer,  does the script have to run at boot time every time
[21:31] <Speedy> zionpsyfer,  does the script have to run at boot time every time?
[21:31] <Speedy> ?
[21:31] <Iceman_B> greetings, anyone knowledgable on Bluetooth dongles and edgy ?
[21:32] <Whatsinaname> jill_Not_Jack it is an ext3
[21:32] <lz1gjd> it looks ok in mplayer though
[21:32] <zionpsyfer> Speedy:  Then I just symlinked it to /etc/rc2.d/S99hd-fix.  Yes, my understanding is that it needs to run each boot.
[21:32] <DriveTrax> where can I find out what Ubuntu I downloaded, is there a place to see on the desktop?
[21:32] <Jill_Not_Jack> Whatsinaname: Quids in then. ;)
[21:32] <DriveTrax> bazhang:  ---- It works  !!!
[21:32] <DJones> !version | DriveTrax
[21:32] <ubotu> DriveTrax: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell
[21:32] <conartist6> go to System>Administration>System Monitor
[21:32] <arex> crimsun: Testing in the Sound Preferences doesn't work either.
[21:32] <unop> Speedy, you could just put the hdparm command in /etc/rc.local  on a line of its own before the last line
[21:33] <conartist6> and its under System
[21:33] <DriveTrax> k
[21:33] <Jill_Not_Jack> DriveTrax: Open System > Preferences > System Monitor. Look at the "System" tab.
[21:33] <Speedy> zionpsyfer,  thanks for the tip, I'm hoping this won't melt my hdd by keeping it running for large amounts of time
[21:33] <Zoem> Scunizi: thank you... it looks like nvidia-xconfig has not been updated for the new evdev.
[21:33] <Jill_Not_Jack> ...what conartist6 said.
[21:33] <conartist6> I need to kill my X session to install the nvidia drivers
[21:33] <conartist6> how do I do it?
[21:33] <Zoem> conartist6: you need to kill the whole gdm
[21:33] <Whatsinaname> jill_Not_Jack it also helps to restart samba :)  I spent at least half an hour before I figured it out lol.
[21:33] <Scunizi> Zoem: greek to me.. :)
[21:33] <conartist6> uuh, ok
[21:33] <conartist6> how?
[21:33] <Zoem> conartist6: use sudo killall gdm
[21:33] <unop> conartist6, sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop
[21:33] <DriveTrax> gutsy!
[21:33] <conartist6> k
[21:34] <DriveTrax> No LSB available?
[21:34] <conartist6> this will probably disconnect me eh
[21:34] <Iceman_B> when I try to make a bluetooth conenction to my phone, I get "obex://[00:1c:43:e4:f4:ea]" is not a valid location.
[21:34] <Zoem> conartist6: very much so ;)
[21:34] <conartist6> goodbye
[21:34] <Iceman_B> anyone know how to solve this ?
[21:34] <Jill_Not_Jack> Whatsinaname: Yes - I did the same. Congratulations on your record breaking time of 30 mins though!
[21:34] <zionpsyfer> Speedy: Nah, you're still way good on the cycle count.  Try unops method, probably easier than my method.  :P
[21:34] <Speedy> Iceman_B, yeah, stop calling it a dongle
[21:34] <linkmaster03> guys, this shows up in the terminal when I try to execute any java command. I have tried reinstalling Java but the same thing happens: "bash: java: command not found
[21:34] <akhilesh> i need help getting a blue tooth dongle to work with ubuntu
[21:34] <Zoem> Scunizi: when nvidia drivers configure xorg.conf, they use an old version of the input services
[21:34] <Speedy> zionpsyfer, thanks for the tip
[21:34] <Iceman_B> Speedy, what do you mean ?
[21:34] <DriveTrax> that was cool, too!!!
[21:34] <magnetron> Iceman_B: you need to install the gnome-vfs-obexftp package
[21:34] <DriveTrax> everything is Cool
[21:34] <Iceman_B> oh
[21:35] <Scunizi> conartist6: first CTRL+ALT+F2.. log in then if you're running gnome.. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop.. now install after installation.. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[21:35] <Jill_Not_Jack> New Question: Who can advise me on whether to use 32-bit or 64-bit?
[21:35] <adog> when setting the permissions on a folder.  where do i put username:username  or is it username:group ?
[21:35] <Iceman_B> right, I'll try that
[21:35] <adog> not where, *WHY*?
[21:35] <unop> linkmaster03, try this again.   sudo aptitude install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-bin
[21:35] <Whatsinaname> jill_Not_Jack well I had spent much much more then that on other samba stuff.  half the fun is figureing it all out.
[21:35] <Iceman_B> and whats wrong with the term "dongle" :p
[21:35] <Scunizi> Zoem: that's cause the restricted drivers don't really use xorg now.
[21:35] <DriveTrax> Jill_Not_Jack:  --- Helper in here said get 32, cas tha 64 is for like MASSIVE digit counting
[21:35] <Scunizi> Zoem: at least from what I understand.
[21:35] <KOJV> So I have installed Xubuntu to an USB hard drive and set it's flag to Boot. But as I try to boot it by chosing the USB drive from my BIOS boot menu, I get a message in German (my sys language is Swedish) saying the kernel is unable to load.

[21:36] <DriveTrax> Jill_Not_Jack:  now, I dunno, but.. thas what 64 is all for
[21:36] <adog> thanks unop.
[21:36] <arex> I have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto but still have no sound. How should I start troubleshooting?
[21:36] <Zoem> Scunizi: it's a bit complicated because I actually have to use beta version from NVidia... normal restricted doesn't support my card yet
[21:36] <Whatsinaname> jill_Not_Jack now if I can just figure out what mask to use :)
[21:36] <unop> linkmaster03, i'm only interested in what that aptitude command did for now.  please use the !pastebin (do not paste in here) and show us what it did.
[21:36] <Jill_Not_Jack> Drivetrax: Gotcha. Would 32-bit apps still run on 64-bit install? I am leaning towards 64, because it's HELLA faster!
[21:37] <akhilesh> KOJV: why would you install it on a usb hdd ?
[21:37] <thevoidreturns> help no idea on how to register - first main time using irc - can a staffer(???) help me please?
[21:37] <Kaja> ...it's not faster...

[21:40] <Scunizi> Zoem: when it's a little older and the new 10k series is announced.. it'll probably work great. :)
[21:40] <crimsun> arex: then you need to remove linux-backports-modules-$(uname -r) and then reinstall alsa-driver-1.0.16
[21:40] <Iceman_B> I installed the obex thing btw, and a few other packages, bluetooth seems to work now
[21:40] <Iceman_B> thanks
[21:40] <unop> zionpsyfer, interesting .. i didnt know this was such a big issue, i just relied on hdparm all the while, thanks again
[21:40] <arex> crimsun: Ok.
[21:40] <Speedy> ice_cream,  as does xchat
[21:40] <DriveTrax> I think, it is soooo nice... I thought, this Unetbootin is not working!  I left it on overnight after it started installing software, and Boom, I woke up with Ubuntu!  First, I looked at FireFox, and searched google.. (No set-up) then, I said where is chat.. and after Ksirc install.. Boom! here we are!  Cool!
[21:40] <Zoem> Scunizi: since I only buy video cards once every 2 years or so, that's just fine :)
[21:40] <Jill_Not_Jack> Unop / DriveTrax: Thanks for the info guys. BTW - I was thinking of buying Microsoft Windows Vista. It has really fancy effects and stuff and it's ULTRA secure according to the Microsoft homepage! What version of Vista is best in your opinion?
[21:41] <Zoem> hafta restart x, brb
[21:41] <akhilesh> KOJV: well im quite sure one may be able to figure that out in here .. these guys are quite good .. but i still recommend you install it on an internal drive
[21:41] <Speedy> having one of the latest models of laptop on the market is a real bitch when it comes to googleing for issues and support, everyone is like.. erm, thats a new model we have never come accorss it yet
[21:41] <akhilesh> KOJV: ditch windows if you have to believe me its worth it bro
[21:41] <linkmaster03> unop: echo $PATH returns /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
[21:42] <unop> linkmaster03, how about.  /usr/bin/java -version
[21:42] <DriveTrax> is there a list of the programs available for Ubuntu on the internet?  or, a firwall for this box?
[21:42] <linkmaster03> unop: bash: /usr/bin/java: No such file or directory
[21:42] <Jill_Not_Jack> I used Vista for the first time and it had really cool 3D window switching things!
[21:43] <Jill_Not_Jack> And it comes with Windows Defender
[21:43] <unop> Jill_Not_Jack, i'm not really interested in vista, my friends have mixed opinions about it, guess it really is down to the individual user on this one, so try it out to see what it is like -- and this is an off-topic question
[21:43] <blind> How can I have two programs playing sound at the same time?
[21:43] <sauvin> .oO("Windows Defender"?)

[21:44] <rsc___> blind, what program didn't want to play sounds while another was playing?
[21:44] <arex> crimsun: Now I have done it.
[21:44]  * Jill_Not_Jack is also ACTUALLY wearing an Ubuntu T-Shirt!! (On-topic)
[21:44] <kris-> Q: what is the U ultimate IRC channel?
[21:44] <jftsang> hello
[21:44] <blind> well, i can't play sounds via anything while another program that uses sound is running.
[21:44] <jftsang> I recently installed Ubuntu Linux onto a USB flash drive which was on a computer which ran WinXP Professional. The install worked, and none of my files have been damaged. However, the computer insists on booting from GRUB, so refuses to boot should I not have my USB flash drive connected. Also, the default OS to boot into is now Ubuntu; I want to change it to be WinXP. How?
[21:44] <DriveTrax> nxusr:  I must do that now, cas I got a 9600 card.. to use

[21:45] <akhilesh> Jill_Not_Jack: whats windows defender ??
[21:45] <blind> rsc___: I know esd is running, but I don't know.
[21:45] <Jill_Not_Jack> akhilesh: An oxymoron.
[21:45] <akhilesh> Jill_Not_Jack:  like a game or somthing ?
[21:45] <linkmaster03> unop: i was looking at the "java" file in the browser
[21:45] <Kleidersack> Sorry, can I make Grub run from the boot-sector of an logical drive (sda5)
[21:45] <nxusr> DriveTrax, have you been able to get it working?
[21:45] <jftsang> akhilesh, it's a "firewall"
[21:45] <linkmaster03> unop: I found that it was linking to icedtea which was uninstalled
[21:45] <sauvin> I expect it would be a firewall/virus scanner/whatever
[21:45] <Iceman_B> anyone know how to get my keyboard to behave like US-intl in XP? meaning I can type a ' and not having to type a space after it ?
[21:45] <tomd123> akhilesh: it's windows "solution" to spyware
[21:45] <linkmaster03> unop: I reinstalled it, and it seems to work fine now :D
[21:45] <DriveTrax> nxusr:  I am about to go to see about drivers
[21:45] <unop> linkmaster03, it appears that /usr/bin/java is not pointing to the right file
[21:45] <Jill_Not_Jack> akhilesh: "A game"........hrmmm. Yes. I suppose you could call it that.
[21:46] <unop> linkmaster03, right :)
[21:46] <linkmaster03> unop: thanks for leading me to that file :P
[21:46] <adog> how does ubuntu to respond to external ntfs drives?

[21:47] <jftsang> Jill_Not_Jack, thanks, I'll try to understand that :)
[21:47] <DriveTrax> nxusr:  -- what ATI product do you have, again?
[21:47] <Iceman_B> Shizzo, in a way, that's a good thing isnt it ?
[21:47] <tomd123> Shizzo needs more caffeine
[21:48] <Kleidersack> Sorry, can I make Grub run from the boot-sector of an logical drive (sda5)?
[21:48] <nxusr> DriveTrax, Remoter Wonder Plus
[21:48] <DriveTrax> k
[21:48] <Shizzo> Yeah...its a good thing.
[21:48] <zionpsyfer> Speedy: smartctl -a provides that data at the top of its output
[21:48] <Shizzo> Im thinking about installing kubuntu on my eeepc
[21:48] <crimsun> arex: you're still running 1.0.15rc, not 1.0.16.
[21:48] <akhilesh> Jill_Not_Jack: hey would you know how to configure a bluetooth dongle in ubuntu so i could send / receive stuff from my cell phone ?
[21:48] <adog> tomd123: cxan i give a external ntfs drive read permissions?
[21:48] <latitu_> when i boot, kde is not auto started, i get a black screen. i login  in and type startx. why?
[21:48] <Kleidersack> Shizzo: why?
[21:48] <steve__> hey has anyone had any experience of using fetchmail?
[21:48] <tomd123> Shizzo: if you want something slower/ you can keep track of easily, go to the ubuntu forums
[21:48] <nxusr> http://rafb.net/p/EtlPWz18.html my config
[21:48] <Shizzo> Is the next ubuntu release supposed to be an LTS distro?
[21:48] <blind> How can I upgrade from Edgy to Feisty, then to Gutsy?
[21:49] <Shizzo> Kleidersack: The default xandros wasnt to my liking...Although, it is much better than Mandrova
[21:49] <Shizzo> errr...Mandriva
[21:49] <arex> crimsun: How do I uninstall it? Because i just ./configure;make;make installed from a 10.0.16 tarball
[21:49] <Iceman_B> é
[21:49] <Iceman_B> oh hey, I got it
[21:49] <maskman> m

[21:49] <steve__> I have set up fetchmail to download mail from an account, and it says it is downloading it, but I cant find where the mail is being downloaded to
[21:49] <jftsang> Thanks, but that still doesn't help as much. Although it will now boot to WinXP by default, my problem still remains - do I have to keep my USB flash drive plugged in?

[21:49] <DriveTrax> nxusr:  -- what number is the video card called.. what series?
[21:49] <crimsun> arex: no, I mean that you have to remove linux-backports-modules-$(uname -r)  /first/
[21:49] <Speedy> thanks zionpsyfer  apparently its a western digitial scorpio
[21:49] <Jill_Not_Jack> akhilesh: from what I remember there is a bluetooth package in the Add/Remove section
[21:49] <arex> crimsun: I did
[21:49] <Kleidersack> Shizzo: But Xandros is optimized for eeePC and you can install most software by adding more source to spurce.list...
[21:50] <Iceman_B> now, I wich Samsung would develope a pc studio like packages for Linux
[21:50] <nxusr> DriveTrax, am not setting up a video card
[21:50] <Jill_Not_Jack> akhilesh: This installs a bluetooth daemon from what I remember that you can use to pair up a device.
[21:50] <GIn> Iceman_B: :P
[21:50] <arex> crimsun: I apt-get removed it. And it was successful.
[21:50] <nxusr> DriveTrax, it is a usb device?
[21:50] <DriveTrax> nxusr:  - right, but the details are in the PDF file Manual for the card
[21:50] <Shizzo> Kleidersack:  I dont know- I just didnt like it much.  However, after installing Mandriva, I like xandros a lot more
[21:50]  * Kleidersack made his Laptop unbootable again :,-)
[21:50] <Jill_Not_Jack> akhilesh: I could be talking out of my arse, mind.
[21:50] <crimsun> arex: please purge it also.
[21:50] <kejava> latitu_, what do you have in your /etc/X11/default-display-manager file?
[21:50] <arex> aha, ok
[21:50] <Shizzo> I just want it to operate like a normal laptop...None of that single user crap.  It doesnt even keep the files that you save to the desktop...

[21:51] <Shizzo> Kleidersack: Yeah- I switched to 'advanced mode'.  And it was strange how I kept losing icons in the easy mode.

[21:52] <cleg> I'm having trouble configuring fstab
[21:52] <nxusr> DriveTrax, it is just the usb device, am not using the video card
[21:52] <arex> crimsun: Thanks. Now reinstall driver?
[21:52] <Shizzo> The dealbreaker for the Xandros was that I cant figure out how to tether the EEE to my mobile phone for data
[21:52] <crimsun> arex: recompile and reinstall alsa-driver, yes
[21:52] <Speedy> zionpsyfer, Please keep in mind that this can do more harm than good,   i dont like the sound of that in the work around section of the link you posted
[21:52] <Jill_Not_Jack> akhilesh: Nope, I think I might be right, head on over to the Add/remove applications, search "bluetooth" and install everything but multisync. I think I had better luck back in the day with the KDE bluetooth apps. I dunno how gnome had progressed with KDE support. To send to a device you can right click it in gnome, send-to via bluetooth
[21:52] <kejava> latitu_, from a terminal, type 'cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager'.

[21:53] <latitu_> kejava /usr/bin/kdm
[21:53] <adog> Thank Jack_not_jill.
[21:53] <Kleidersack> No, I get the full 3G speed...
[21:54] <arex> crimsun: Now reboot?
[21:54] <gaurav_> i upgraded to 8.04 but the gdm login window doesn't show up, i've tried the suggestions in bug #210538 but no avail! anyone experienced the same?
[21:54] <Shizzo> Kleidersack: Is there some app that you use for it?
[21:54] <Jill_Not_Jack> adog. Both of these can be added to panel (I recommend doing this) Also: if something hangs badly in gnome, you can always use the good old CTRL + ALT + BCKSPACE to restart the X graphical server
[21:54] <Speedy> Jill_Not_Jack,  i just tried what you said, didnt work
[21:54] <Kleidersack> Shizzo: The "Networkmanager" of Xandros

[21:55] <Shizzo> In advanced mode?  Are you using USB or bluetooth, Kleidersack ?

[21:55] <Speedy> all
[21:55] <Speedy> alt f2 xxxmanager
[21:55] <Kleidersack> Shizzo: Some seconds after attaching my nokia 6110 Navigator it was recognized as an dialup device (dmesg)...
[21:55] <akhilesh> el_ruso: im downloading it right now
[21:55] <Kleidersack> Shizzo: I'm using USB
[21:55] <Shizzo> Kleidersack: Unfortunately, my Blackjack2 is not recognized.
[21:55] <adog> Ive got an external NTFS drive that is locking up when I try to view a certain  folder and it's contents.  I think it might be badly fragmented or something.  Is there an application for ubuntu that can do a low level data scan or anytihng?
[21:55] <Jill_Not_Jack> Speedy:....Look in the bottom left hand corner.  :S

[21:56] <cleg> I'm having trouble configuring fstab
[21:56] <benanzo> how can I socksify an app that only supports http tunnel?  I want to use ssh socks proxy
[21:56] <adog> unop.  Taking forever and every. slowing the system down.. when i try to see the drives properies and files it just sites there.. like it's trying to figure it out.
[21:56] <Iceman_B> GIn, see pm
[21:56] <sparr_> are non-standard debconf question thresholds supported on ubuntu?
[21:56] <Jill_Not_Jack> Speedy: Your comment confuses and displeases me.
[21:56] <adog> unop. it happens when i plug it into my mac and my windows box too..
[21:56] <GIn> Iceman_B: I replied :\
[21:57] <Speedy> Jill_Not_Jack,  which one?
[21:57] <el_ruso> Please help with my ad-hoc conexion
[21:57] <Jill_Not_Jack> Speedy: Please elaborate.
[21:57] <rkvirani> I have this HP computer, its an older P4, and for some reason the drive controller is extremely slow, its like the machine is waiting for somehting when it boots
[21:57] <BSG75> how do I install sans serif font.. anyone remember the apt source for it?
[21:57] <latitu_> how to reconfigure xserver?
[21:57] <rkvirani> there is a long pause between loading the initrd image and booting the us as well as between grub and loading initrd
[21:57] <Kleidersack> Shizzo: Sorry, no idea... Have you tald you mobile device to behave like a dialup device?
[21:57] <Speedy> Jill_Not_Jack,  which one?
[21:57] <unop> adog, the best thing to do is probably get windows' scandisk/chkdsk to run on it
[21:57] <adog> unop: doesnt help :(\
[21:57] <rkvirani> unop: fsck returns clean
[21:57]  * Kleidersack still meeds help with his grub on sda5

[21:57] <GIn> Iceman_B: join #pmgin
[21:57] <Speedy> i cant see anything that i have said that would cause confusion so i'm not sure which comment you are talking about Jill_Not_Jack
[21:58] <rkvirani> Has anyone heard of this wierd problem?
[21:58] <Jill_Not_Jack> adog: My bad. "gnome-system-monitor"...not manager.
[21:58] <achandrashekar> anyone have any experience with djbdns on ubuntu
[21:58] <Shizzo> Kleidersack: To thebest of my knowledge, I have, yes
[21:58] <linkmaster03> GIn: well when I try to run a .jar file that uses my default browser to show a webpage, this shows in the terminal http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63871/
[21:58] <Speedy> Jill_Not_Jack,  haha, thougt so
[21:58] <unop> adog, i know, but if i were you i'd count on something reliable to check the disk, despite there being an ntfsfix utility for linux
[21:58] <latitu_> how to reconfigure xserver?
[21:58] <Jill_Not_Jack> Speedy: I gotcha
[21:58] <Speedy> *thought
[21:58] <achandrashekar> specifically with tinydns?
[21:58] <Jill_Not_Jack> ;)
[21:58] <kejava> latitu_, from terminal, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg"
[21:58] <adog> hrm..
[21:58] <latitu_> thx\'\
[21:58] <latitu_> whats phigh for?
[21:58] <Kleidersack> Shizzo: I'm afraid I ran out if ideas... is your mobile phone usable with another distro?
[21:58] <Shizzo> Kleidersack: So, youre still running the default Xandros.
[21:59] <rkvirani> any ideas, the drive controller just waits and waits and waits
[21:59] <zionpsyfer> Speedy: Indeed. if you're unsure, use 254 instead.  This doesn't disable powersave on the drive but sets it at a less aggressive setting.  255 has worked well with my drive but they're all different.
[21:59] <rkvirani> the drive however is fine.
[21:59] <Shizzo> Kleidersack: I dont know.  Im a noob.   I personally condemn you to running in x safe-mode for 48 hours.
[21:59] <Whatsinaname> jill_Not_Jack  got it working,  thanks for the help with shares.  now I just have to do some fine tuning for private folders.  (setting up file server for family. media folder accessable to all, individual folders to each memeber, etc... fun never ends)

[21:59] <theperryfamily> I'm new to gnome, does evolution have a status bar icon like kmail? or do I have to leave the evolution window open to ensure that it checks and notifies me of new mail etc?
[21:59] <Speedy> lol
[21:59] <Jill_Not_Jack> Hey, Whatsinaname
[21:59] <arex> crimsun: No luck...

[22:00] <GIn> linkmaster03: sory, can't help you there
[22:00] <Kleidersack> Shizzo: You could use knoppix (or another livecd like the ubuntu-install-cd) to try, whether debian recognizes your phone...
[22:00] <latitu_> kejava $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure kde
[22:00] <latitu_> Package `kde' is not installed and no info is available.
[22:00] <latitu_> Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
[22:00] <latitu_> and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.
[22:01] <el_ruso> hey lod what's up
[22:01] <FloodBot1> latitu_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:01] <linkmaster03> GIn: ok :(
[22:01] <Jill_Not_Jack> Whatsinaname: Before you go. Can I suggest adding the shares to the fstab file. That way they will mount on boot. I did this with 2 external drives on my Mrs. PC. They appear as drives whenever I boot in. It's great. It means they can be added to the beagle/tracker indexing engines too! Sweet! :D
