[00:00] <nickrud> ryknow_, yes, that tells us some of the status of the package
[00:00] <khaije1> my virt-manager doesn't let me manage virtual networks, am i missing a package or something?
[00:00] <mysticdarkhack> the only thing I can't still solve is the usplash kernel bootup took so long to start to login screen
[00:00] <mysticdarkhack> bar keep moving back and torth
[00:00] <ryknow_> ok. I'll paste the the output. it doesn't start with ii.
[00:00] <zvacet> muffin-stump : do you have space to dual boot (just a suggestion)
[00:00] <nickrud> ryknow_, should only be one line that matters, last one:  does that start with ii ?
[00:01] <iphoneman> so
[00:01] <mysticdarkhack> I keep have to do all_generic_ide in kernel edit menu
[00:01] <khaije1> mysticdarkhack: did you try adding a noapic option on the kernel line of the boot paramaters?
[00:01] <Sanketsu> I've installed a game called AlephOne and am trying to play it and am getting the error "alephone: error while loading shared libraries: libspeexdsp.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"  Any ideas on a way to fix?
[00:01] <khaije1> that usually speeds it up
[00:01] <ryknow_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/30129/
[00:01] <ryknow_> Yes it does.
[00:01] <mysticdarkhack> maybe kernel 2.6.24 doesn't like my machine
[00:01] <ryknow_> The last line starts with ii
[00:01] <glitsj16> mysticdarkhack: perhaps some filesystem check (fsck) tat boot-up took some time
[00:01] <glitsj16> *at

[00:02] <sFEARs> my computer mysteriously shuts down once in a while for an unknown reason, what file can i look at to figure out why it's shutting down?
[00:02] <ekow> i have my video drivers and widescreen res set, (1280x800) but there are some things in ubuntu that don't fill the whole screen like the login screen and the upper taskbar, anyone know how to fix these?
[00:02] <sFEARs> i guess i should say what log file can i look at?
[00:02] <muffin-stump> bobertdos: thanks, but I found that early in my search; its not quite what I want since I would need a hard drive to use it.  What I want is to copy the image as it exists on the live CD with everything included into ram, then boot/run from ram and eject the CD.
[00:02] <Daisuke_Ido> Sanketsu: install libspeex1
[00:02] <Odd-rationale> !broadcom | HaSH
[00:02] <Sylphid> sFEARs, try /var/log/messages
[00:02] <sFEARs> will try
[00:03] <nickrud> ryknow_, ok, as I read your error output there's something wrong with some imports, and I think it's that package but could easily be wrong, I don't python. I'm going to check the bug tracker, brb
[00:03] <Sanketsu> Daisuke_Ido: would that be done with "sudo apt-get install libspeex1" ?
[00:03] <HaSH> hello all. iirc ubuntu's new kernel now used the b34 driver for broadcom drivers and no longer uses bcm43xx?.....i just installed and im having issues with my wireless broadcom card
[00:03] <muffin-stump> zvacet: i dont have access to the existing drive, nor do i have another that I can install.
[00:03] <Daisuke_Ido> Sanketsu: yes it would :)
[00:03] <Sanketsu> Daisuke_Ido: Thanks.
[00:03] <ryknow_> ok, thanks man!
[00:03] <HaSH> Odd-rationale, thanks.
yeah took sometime to bootup and starting in the processs when it take too long
[00:03] <Odd-rationale> HaSH: np
[00:03] <Daisuke_Ido> Sanketsu: you're welcome, and good luck
[00:03] <bobertdos> muffin-stump: yeah, that's what I thought you were after. I don't mean to be off-topic, but if you wouldn't mind a different distro, Fedora would probably serve you better.
[00:04] <Sylphid> sFEARs, you may also get something from /var/log/kern.log
restarting I meant
[00:04] <sFEARs> cool.. thanks Sylphid
[00:04] <arooni> i followed: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4910397 and it didnt work
[00:04] <zvacet> muffin-stump : look bobertdos link maybe that is what you need
[00:04] <arooni> i followed: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4910397 and it didnt work (using a bluetooth headset on ubuntu hardy) ...
[00:04] <Sanketsu> Daisuke_Ido: Just tried, I get "libspeex1 is already the newest version."
[00:05] <mysticdarkhack> it been two year now since I use linux, and still have much more to learn
[00:05] <mysticdarkhack> lol
[00:05] <Daisuke_Ido> Sanketsu: not sure then :\
[00:05] <mysticdarkhack> well, at least it keep me busy
[00:05] <muffin-stump> zvacet: nope, its not because it requires modifying a HDD, which is exactly what a live session is meant _not to do..
[00:05] <will00> i have a program that syncs all my phone information running under wine. it works very well but its only address book syncing software is outlook, is there a plugin or something that i can do to make thunderbird build its address book from there?
[00:05] <muffin-stump> zvacet: but its close.
[00:05] <ekow> i have my video drivers and widescreen res set, (1280x800) but there are some things in ubuntu that don't fill the whole screen like the login screen and the upper taskbar, anyone know how to fix these?
[00:06] <martin_> where in ubuntu can i change the number of displays used?

[00:06] <muffin-stump> zvacet: no bother :)
[00:07] <Stargaters> Hi :)
[00:07] <Stargaters> I'm having a problem with Rythymbox..
[00:07] <muffin-stump> bobertdos: I could tolerate a different distro, but I'm much more comfortable with debian-based ones.  and for what I need to do, it doesn't seem worth it.  It's probably a single parameter that i'm missing D:
[00:07] <chuy_max> !ntfs-3g
[00:07] <Sanketsu> Daisuke_Ido: No problem, I'll keep looking for an answer.
[00:07] <Blaqlight> here is kind of a weird question, when a wm draws the coordinates in the window when dragging are they shoing cursome position or middle of the window position or what?
[00:07] <nickrud> ryknow_, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[00:07] <ryknow_> 8.04
[00:07] <ryknow_> x64
[00:08] <nickrud> ryknow_, have you added any sound packages recently?
[00:08] <bobertdos> muffin-stump: What ARE you intending to do, anyway?
[00:08] <ryknow_> Nope.
[00:08] <Blaqlight> cursome = cursor
[00:08] <ryknow_> The only sound packages i added was when I setup my soundcard awhile back.
[00:08] <ryknow_> But I'm pretty sure that it worked even after that.
[00:09] <ryknow_> I'm not sure what caused it to stop.
[00:09] <ryknow_> It was pretty random.
[00:09] <ekow> i have my video drivers and widescreen res set, (1280x800) but there are some things in ubuntu that don't fill the whole screen like the login screen and the upper taskbar, anyone know how to fix these?
[00:10] <muffin-stump> bobertdos: wouldn't YOU like to know ;)  actually, its meant to run temporarily on a machine with no access to the HDD, and only one CD drive.  It's a HUGE limitation having that drive stuck with the live CD in it, I cant copy anything from CD or write anything to a blank one.
[00:10] <Stargaters> Neither my CDs nor my external hard drive will play music through Rythymbox... I can use youtube though, to hear sounds. My speakers are working. Is this just Rythymbox being shitty, or...?
[00:11] <nickrud> ryknow_, everything I find about that error is about adding oss (and apparently removing alsa)
[00:11] <mar77i_> hi, can someone help me re-install linux over ssh? I'd need to install a live system with sshd
[00:11] <ryknow_> hmmm
[00:11] <muffin-stump> Stargaters: actually it sounds like a gstreamer issue more than anything..
[00:11] <bobertdos> muffin-stump: Have you considered running a USB installation?
[00:11] <rafaelscj> how do I to change the onwer of a file?
[00:12] <ryknow_> What would cause me to remove alsa?
[00:12] <ryknow_> Any idea?
[00:12] <mar77i_> rafaelscj, chown ;)
[00:12] <nickrud> ryknow_, does 4front-tech.com mean anything to you?
[00:12] <will00> how do i convert a .dat to a .txt?
[00:12] <nickrud> ryknow_, http://www.4front-tech.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2273&sid=bb09619de0c16f1b9a2128adea4c6008
[00:12] <ryknow_> No. ?
[00:12] <muffin-stump> bobertdos: that's viable, but only if the machine will allow booting from USB devices, which isnt as universal as booting from CD
[00:12] <mar77i_> ryknow_, pulseaudio?
[00:12] <rafaelscj> mar77i_, thanks
[00:12] <ryknow_> No...?
[00:12] <rockenrola> will00: what does the .dat contain?
[00:12] <glitsj16> ekow: for the login screen issue you will need to get a widescreen gdm theme ( www.gnome-look.org, art.gnome.org or similar )
[00:13] <bobertdos> muffin-stump: true, and this system sounds somewhat dated
[00:13] <will00> rockenrola, it contains an address book i imported using myphoneexplorer
[00:13] <mar77i_> ryknow_, is this an issue with you or is this an issue with ubuntu?
[00:13] <ryknow_> It's ubuntu.
[00:13] <ekow> glitsj16: cool thanks!
[00:13] <muffin-stump> bobertdos: is one of those compact dell workstations with only one HDD and a laptop-style CD drive
[00:13] <rockenrola> will00: as text. just change the extension
[00:14] <will00> ok
[00:14] <ryknow_> I was able to change my menus just fine one day...and not the next.
[00:14] <bobertdos> muffin-stump: I see your dilemma.
[00:14] <ryknow_> It doesn't do anything a soon as I click edit menus, or Click on the Main menu tab in prefernces.
[00:15] <Sylphid> mar77i_, i dont believe that openssh is on the live cd so this may be a problem
[00:15] <mar77i_> Sylphid, okay, how can I create a live-iso myself?
[00:16] <sammino> i just created a 2gb swap file,  how can i check if its working correctly? I tried to understand /proc/meminfo  but I dont see to figure it out very well lol any advise is appreciated
[00:16] <mar77i_> Sylphid, with virtualbox?
[00:16] <rockenrola> sammino: you can use the system monitor
[00:16] <muffin-stump> bobertdos: I think my two options are to find and download an old Dapper live disc, or try to boot from USB as you suggested.  but I dont own the machine and have to respect it, so that means not modifiying anything, no opening the case, etc.
[00:16] <Sanketsu> I've installed a game called AlephOne and am trying to play it and am getting the error "alephone: error while loading shared libraries: libspeexdsp.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" even though libspeex1 is installed.  Any ideas on a way to fix?

[00:20] <Sylphid> fwaokda, you may want to look into running windows in a virtual machine
[00:20] <rockenrola> sammino: I don't know
[00:20] <Sylphid> fwaokda, i would recommend virtualbox
[00:20] <bobertdos> muffin-stump: and even though you're more comfortable in debian distros, I'd advise that you keep your mind open to Fedora. The only huge differences are the use of RPM files, YUM (if you use the command line for package management at all) and using Livna for restricted packages. Other than that, it's pretty much the same.
[00:20] <Zoot> Thanks Flannel! Worked like a charm
[00:20] <psilo-> why can i literally not find wpa_supplicant.conf :(
[00:20] <psilo-> its installed
[00:20] <unop> sammino, how much swap allocated? use this command to find out.   sudo swapon -s
[00:21] <fwaokda> Sylphid, virtualbox is nice but isn't quite what im looking for... maybe I'll just keep ubuntu on my laptop for personal use and build a windows pc for games
[00:21] <simtower> kile crashes X for me
[00:21] <Sylphid> fwaokda, what games are you looking to run ... many work fine for me in wine
[00:21] <ryknow_> whats the best program to burn iso's with? I want to try out xubuntu.
[00:22] <zvacet> ryknow_ : brasero,k3b
[00:22] <unop> bobertdos, i suppose the amount of difference depends on what type of a user you are on .. i find RPM based systems to have quite a different FSH too plus all the administrative commands are named differently or work differently
[00:22] <sammino> unop, this is what it says:   /dev/sda5              partition 2996080     /mnt/2048Mb.swap               file            2097144
[00:23] <fwaokda> Sylphid, spore when it comes out and then mainly I need something to run my CS3 suite that I haven't been able to get to work on ubuntu. CS3 suite not working takes a big toll on me -- not to mention my zune doesn't work on ubuntu :( i <3 my zune
[00:23] <sammino> when i run the sudo swappon -s thats what it says
[00:23] <admin1> hey guys
[00:23] <CatEater> is the zune not a drag-and-drop flash device? sounds gross
[00:23] <unop> sammino, hmm, not sure where that 5GB comes from then -- must be a misrepresentation
[00:24] <sammino> is sda5 a swap partitiont that the system created?
[00:24] <bobertdos> unop: Yeah, that may bother some, but for me, well that's why manpages exist.
[00:24] <fwaokda> CatEater, uses mtpz which hasn't been cracked yet i dont think
[00:24] <sammino> if so, do i need my swap file?
[00:24] <hwilde> is there something on boot that tries to get on any open network??
[00:24] <isakey> i always want to use latest versions of software. and backports is a joke. anyone got advices?
[00:24] <hwilde> is there something on boot that tries to get on any open network??
[00:25] <TiredWolf> isakey: switch distribution
[00:25] <unop> bobertdos, i'm not saying it's completely unusuable, you always have access to documentation - but it's the differences in how the system is constructed that can be quite disruptive
[00:25] <mar77i_> Sylphid, is this even possible to install ssh on a live cd? I think there's no users?
[00:25] <isakey> TiredWolf: any ubuntu-like distro?
[00:25] <muffin-stump> bobertdos:  as a matter of fact, i use the terminal for... lots :)  But I'll definitely look into it, having a different distro on a live CD is certainly not the end of the world.
[00:26] <Odd-rationale> in the ubuntuforums, what is a referral? and how do you get one?
[00:26] <unop> sammino, sda5 seems to be the partition you dedicated for swap
[00:26] <sammino> so i can drop my swap file?
[00:26] <TiredWolf> isakey: well, "ubuntu-like" includes not having the latest versions of software, but rather aiming for stability... so i don't know. debian unstable?
[00:26] <admin1> hey guys, i need some help please, its urgent
[00:26] <unop> sammino, that is the swap file :)
[00:26] <TiredWolf> !ask
[00:26] <muffin-stump> bobertdos: but it is frustrating.  I feel like I'm about 8 keystroke away from getting hardy to do what I want, and I cant figure out what I'm missing XD

[00:28] <bobertdos> muffin-stump; It's hard to recommend anything. You won't find the hardest core experts on this channel, necessarily. I guess if I were you, I'd spend more time scouring forums, and probably general Linux ones in addition to Debian and Ubuntu.

[00:32] <psilo-> hwilde:  can i pm, its getting a bit hard to keep track in here
[00:33] <TiredWolf> admin1, i'm not sure you've answered my question on whether it's Windows you're talking about.
[00:33] <Sylphid> muffin-stump, dunno if it was already suggested but you could run ubuntu off a live usb stick
[00:34] <psilo-> hwilde? anyone?
[00:34] <bobertdos> !pastebin > bobertdos
[00:34] <glitsj16> chuy_max: after installing an apache2 module you need to activate it via the "a2enmod <module name>" command .. sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload after that and you'll have it (for reference --> http://www.control-escape.com/web/configuring-apache2-debian.html)
[00:34] <muffin-stump> nickrud: in past releases like dapper, the liveCD had an option in the boot menu to do just that: it copied the entire CD to ram in a virtual drive volume of some sort, then booted and ran without needing the CD.  it was great.
[00:35] <Flannel> muffin-stump: Ubuntu really isn't designed as a LiveCD (for liveCDs sake).  There are some distros which cater specifically to being a liveCD, you may want to look into those.
[00:35] <muffin-stump> nickrud: it also ran MUCH faster, as it wasn't constantly reading from the CD or waiting for it to spin up again
[00:35] <nickrud> muffin-stump, don't remember seeing that myself, but I don't think I ran dapper livecd anyway
[00:36] <nickrud> I'll have to take a look when I get home, I have one floating around there
[00:36] <IndyGunFreak> muffin-stump: maybe knoppix is mroe to your liking, i think its geared towards being a live cd only, as opposed to being installed.
[00:36] <admin1> Tiredwolf, i'm running L;inux ubuntu :P
[00:36] <Flannel> muffin-stump: or DSL, (or a number of others, depending on what you're using said liveCD for)
[00:36] <TiredWolf> admin1: then what with AVG?
[00:37] <Flannel> admin1: tons of connections isn't necessarily indication of anything bad, we'd need more information (the output of netstat, for instance) to be able to tell you anything further without it being pure speculation
[00:37] <q_>  checking CPU and mobo temperatures?

[00:38] <stemount^> anyone have any idea where screensaver settings (the files / xml / whatever configs are)?
[00:38] <IndyGunFreak> muffin-stump: maybe, but you were asking about a distro that was geared towards just being a live cd(at least thats what i thought you asked), and Knoppix, well, thats what it is.
[00:38] <bastid_raZor> piko_water; via vmware is about the only choice
[00:38] <bastid_raZor> s/vmware/virtual machine/g
[00:38] <piko_water> oh ok
[00:39] <Mile5> Bah, why can't I use chmod on a .run file? It says "Operation not permitted". -.-;
[00:39] <Elijah> i just installed ubuntu on a mac via VMware fusion! It is looking good
[00:39] <Intrepid> crdlb: i don't think so...though the exact model is '7300 LE' which I understand is a stripped down version
[00:39] <TiredWolf> Mile5: bcause it's not owned by you?
[00:39] <emhs> Anyone have any experience with a dv9930us or equivalent?
[00:39] <bastid_raZor> Mile5; use sudo
[00:39] <Mile5> bastid_raZor: how?
[00:39] <muffin-stump> indygunfreak: actually, that's not what I asked for.  I asked if anyone knew what parameter was needed to boot and run entirely from ram.  I intentionally left other distro's out of the subject
[00:39] <stemount^> emhs: I've used quite a few of the HP DV line on Ubuntu, why?
[00:39] <TiredWolf> Mile5: sudo chmode ...
[00:39] <TiredWolf> mod
[00:39] <bastid_raZor> Mile5; sudo ./file.run
[00:39] <hvgotcodes> please someone help with wireless?
[00:40] <bastid_raZor> Mile5; errr.. sudo chmod xxx file
[00:40] <IndyGunFreak> muffin-stump: ah ok, guess ir ead to much into the answers youw ere getting
[00:40] <emhs> Friend of mine is standing in circuit city right now, debating whether to buy one or not.
[00:40] <Mile5> bastid_raZor: Doesn't work
[00:40] <Bodsda> Mile5, sudo chmod ### /.run
[00:40] <TiredWolf> !sudo > mile5
[00:40] <TiredWolf> !doesn't work
[00:40] <glitsj16> chuy_max: yes, and make sure you add Exec CGI in your virtual host file
[00:40] <stemount^> emhs: I'd go for it, they are good machines
[00:40] <Mile5> Nah, doesn't work.
[00:41] <bastid_raZor> Mile5; what does it tell you?
[00:41] <emhs> Danke, stemount^
[00:41] <chuy_max> glitsj16, already done that, I get this when I try to run the file: You don't have permission to access /test.cgi on this server.
[00:41] <Mile5> and when I try to use "sudo sh ###.run/" It just gives me a new line
[00:41] <TiredWolf> probably "doesn't work"
[00:41] <stemount^> emhs: np
[00:41] <mar77i_> what's the name of the text based install tool on the live cd?
[00:42] <TiredWolf> Mile5: perhaps it doesn't like that final "/"
[00:42] <TiredWolf> mar77i_: there is none that i know of.
[00:42] <TiredWolf> !alternate > mar77i_
[00:42] <Mile5> TiredWolf: It's the same without it.
[00:42] <chuy_max> glitsj16, the handler is this: http://pastebin.com/m5fe1682b
[00:42] <glitsj16> chuy_max: sounds like a permission problem .. chmod 755 your pl files
[00:42] <stemount^> Mile5: that means it has run
[00:42] <stemount^> sometimes :)
[00:42] <TiredWolf> Mile5: well you still haven't told us what "sudo chmod whatever filename" tells you
[00:42] <glitsj16> chuy_max: ok, i'llhave a look, hold on
[00:42] <muffin-stump> indygunfreak: its okay, dont worry.  I realize you're all trying to help and your ideas are valid ones.  BUT.  ubuntu is my preferred distro, hands down, because my experience with it has been almost completely positive no matter what hardware I try to use it on.  I cant say the same for any others, especially (ironically) the dedicated live CDs.  So my aim really is to learn what I need to learn in order to use my distro of choic
[00:42] <stemount^> if it doesn't echo anything in the script
[00:42] <chuy_max> glitsj16, I did chmod 777, but still doesnt work
[00:43] <stemount^> it might have done it, Mile5
[00:43] <Mile5> TiredWolf: Nothing.
[00:43] <Mile5> Just a new line
[00:43] <TiredWolf> Mile5: then it worked
[00:43] <mar77i_> TiredWolf, does the alternate cd have an ssh server installed?
[00:43] <TiredWolf> Mile5: when commands succeed, they don't say anything and just go to a new line. it's when the FAIL that they give you messages
[00:43] <TiredWolf> mar77i_: most likely not
[00:43] <TiredWolf> mar77i_: what prevents you from installing one though?
[00:43] <stemount^> mar77i_: what do you mean?
[00:43] <mar77i_> I'm working on it...
[00:43] <Mile5> TiredWolf: Ok, thanks, but now I should have new graphic drivers then?
[00:44] <TiredWolf> Mile5: graphics driver? i only came in when you asked about chmod.
[00:44] <Mile5> TiredWolf: Yeh
[00:44] <edju> How to get that "initiating startup sequence" ogg or wav that Knoppix has?
[00:44] <TiredWolf> Mile5: if, by any chance, you're trying to install nvidia/ati drivers from  a .run file... then that's something i strongly discourage
[00:44] <hwilde> !iptables > admin1
[00:44] <Mile5> TiredWolf: How should I do it then?
[00:44] <BrandonS> Does anyone know if I can share a printer over a network to a windows computer?
[00:45] <stemount^> BrandonS: you can indeed
[00:45] <TiredWolf> Mile5: by using the official Ubuntu package in the repositories
[00:45] <TiredWolf> !nvidia > Mile5
[00:45] <BrandonS> Can you point me in the right direction?
[00:45] <muffin-stump> edju: you could boot knoppix, then locate the folder the sounds are in and copy them to some drive?
[00:45] <mar77i_> stemount^, I'm reinstalling my friend's pc over the net. that means, I'm forced to, because I fucked up his distro & sources
[00:45] <azexian> acpi (and therefore all battery readings) are always showing 100%, despite the battery discharging, so I often get the system just turning off as power runs out, can someone help me?
[00:45] <muffin-stump> as an aside, I think it's funny that most linux people seem to be afraid to say, "DUNNO LOL" myself included :D
[00:47] <Stevethepirate> Hi, the icon's on my top panel won't move... how can I do this?
[00:47] <muffin-stump> Stevethepirate: right-click and uncheck the "lock to panel"
[00:47] <Bodsda> Stevethe1irate, right click on them, make sure the 'lock to panel' tick box is unticked
[00:47] <BrandonS> stemount^,  Do you know of any tutorials that will show me how or can you tell me?
[00:47] <Stevethepirate> muffin-stump: I have
[00:47] <Mile5> Ok, so now I have the newest drivers.. Now I can't adjust my screen to 1600x1200 and it doesn't recognize my screens..
[00:47] <Stevethepirate> its not locked to panel
[00:48] <muffin-stump> Stevethepirate: if you're trying to move it to a different spot on the panel, everything between it and where you want it to go has to be unlocked
[00:48] <TiredWolf> Mile5: well, if you're using the newest drivers rather than the ones officially packaged in the repositories, then you might not get help if you're not lucky.
[00:48] <azexian> anyone? battery always shows 100%, what can I do?
[00:48] <Sylphid> Stevethepirate, right click on the item and click move
[00:49] <glitsj16> chuy_max: you might want to try using "AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl" and add a <Directory your-cgi-dir>Options +ExecGCI</Directory>
[00:49] <muffin-stump> oh...and that too.  you cant just click and drag :)
[00:49] <lunaris> hello
[00:49] <georgy28> !nut
[00:49] <Stevethepirate> Ok, that doesn't work.
[00:49] <lunaris> is anyone free for some help?
[00:49] <Stevethepirate> Still won't let it move.
[00:50] <stuck1> I can't connect to wireless with my broadcom on a dell inspiron.
[00:50] <stuck1> any help?
[00:50] <pale-yafa> hello, after restarting my postgresql server it does not start
[00:50] <stuck1> the light won't turn on on the hardware, either.
[00:50] <azexian> anyone? battery always shows 100%, what can I do?
[00:51] <ubuntu_> hello, would you recommend me to install kubuntu with kde 4 instead of ubuntu
[00:51] <legend2440> edju: is   startup.wav   the same one used on knoppix?        http://simplythebest.net/sounds/WAV/events_WAV/startup_wavs_2.html
[00:51] <_2> now. let me ask again.    how do you control what the kernel spews on the console, is there a command or a config file ?
[00:51] <glitsj16> chuy_max: in that case, take out both <files> blocks, as it is setup now it doesn't know that those .pl files are also to be handled as cgi-script
[00:51] <TiredWolf> ubuntu_: how would we know?
[00:51] <stuck1> It's a Broadcom B43 wireless driver
[00:51] <BrandonS> ubuntu_ Someone just told me that on another network
[00:51] <Bodsda> ubuntu_, your choice, install either and you can install the other ontop of it and switch between the two
[00:51] <muffin-stump> stevethepirate: it could be that something is locking down all of your panels, in which case, poking around in gconf-editor might let you what you want.  what if you make  a brand new panel and add your icons to it?  can you move them then?
[00:52] <Gun_Smoke> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.   Can I just kill it and start over? http://pastebin.com/m56c85879
[00:52] <diogo> Hi I'm trying to figure uot why FGLRX 8.7 works better on ubuntu's xorg then on the other so how could I get the patches ubuntu uses on xorg
[00:52] <diogo> ?
[00:52] <ubuntu_> Bodsda, how do i install it ontop__
[00:52] <stuck1> In "Hardware Drivers" the check box is enabled, and it says In use
[00:52] <azexian> anyone? battery always shows 100%, what can I do?
[00:52] <Bodsda> Gun_Smoke, run 'dpkg --configure -a'
[00:52] <stuck1> but when I right click on the network icon and select networks, nothing shows.
[00:53] <Gun_Smoke> Bodsda: Look at the pastebin
[00:53] <stuck1> The ATI driver is working great, compiz is up and running beautifully.
[00:53] <_2> Gun_Smoke can't you just do what the error message is telling you
[00:53] <Gun_Smoke> _2: Pastebin.. ^^
[00:53] <stuck1> The laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1721, I'm sure this problem is not unusual.
[00:53] <genik__> whats the best video editting software
[00:54] <lunaris> is anyone free for some help?
[00:54] <chuy_max> glitsj16, on it
[00:54] <Bodsda> Gun_Smoke, do you have kernel headers installed?
[00:54] <stuck1> I looked up ndiswrapper stuff, but I'm not sure if I need it since the hardware is listed under the Hardware Drivers applet.
[00:54] <rafaelscj> ubuntu_, you can install the kubuntu theme on ubuntu using synaptic
[00:54] <_2> Gun_Smoke if that's a "clean" system file a bug on that package
[00:54] <glitsj16> chuy_max: okay

[00:55] <azexian> anyone? battery always shows 100%, what can I do?
[00:55] <crimsun_> er

[00:57] <rituais> Hi too all =D
[00:57] <genik__> whats the best video editting software
[00:57] <crimsun_> stuck1: you don't need ndiswrapper.  That chipset works fine with 8.04.1's b43 driver and b43-fwcutter.
[00:57] <TiredWolf> !best
[00:57] <lunaris> rafaelscj : I cannot see display pic from my contacts
[00:57] <muffin-stump> time to go.  I'll try again another day, maybe someone else will know.  thanks all
[00:57] <stuck1> crimsun_: OK, so how do I turn it on and connect to a network then?
[00:58] <stuck1> crimsun_: Does the LED ever come on?
[00:58] <crimsun_> stuck1: see the wiki.  Yes, it does.  Sorry, I need to run.
[00:58] <rituais> ??
[00:58] <rituais> i am new in Xchat
[00:58] <rituais> x\
[00:58] <spaceboy909> Anybody here ever use the Galeon browser.  I"m just now trying it out.
[00:58] <glitsj16> genik__: that's very hard to say in general .. have you tried any yet ?
[00:58] <Sylphid> Elijah, nvidia-glx-new ...... i think thats what your talking about
[00:58] <stuck1> where is the wiki?
[00:58] <stuck1> crimsun_: where is the wiki?
[00:58] <lunaris> rafaelscj
[00:58] <rituais> that's a bad browser
[00:58] <spaceboy909> Is it?
[00:58] <zaapiel> ubuntu owns
[00:58] <Elijah> Sylphid, no it had a real name
[00:58] <zaapiel> :D
[00:59] <azexian> anyone? battery always shows 100%, what can I do?
[00:59] <diogo> spaceboy909: epiphany is better than galeon on my opinion and firefox is even better
[00:59] <stuck1> FF ftw!
[00:59] <zaapiel> anyone had flash crashin since the update?
[00:59] <zaapiel> on firefox 3
[00:59] <Sylphid> Elijah, nvidia-glx-new is the package name for the binary driver... what is is that your looking for?
[00:59] <_2> azexian not a klew
[00:59] <zaapiel> it cant handle the myspace now :(
[00:59] <spaceboy909> Hmm, haven't tried Epiphany.........I use firefox mostly...........used to use Opera but have ran into too much trouble with it in recent years.
[00:59] <newuser> zaapiel, i did solve it uninstalling libflash
[00:59] <Bodsda> azexian, i found a few links, not sure of your exact prob, check some of these out -- http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=battery+always+shows+100%25+ubuntu
[00:59] <Elijah> Sylphid, it automatically detected yout card and downloaded the correct nvidia driver
[01:00] <zaapiel> although some would say crashin myspace is a feature not a bug :D
[01:00] <Elijah> genik, best video editing is generally avid, finalcut but for Linux there isn't much yet, however Blender is pretty slick (3d program)
[01:00] <Bodsda> zaapiel, my space has nothing to do with ubuntu tech support, please try and stay on topic
[01:00] <stuck1> anybody else want to give me a clue on how to get wifi working in hardy?
[01:01] <azexian> Bodsda: I think I searched that exact thing :p
[01:01] <stuck1> I'm about 30 seconds away from installing XP.
[01:01]  * zaapiel says sorry to Bodsda
[01:01] <Bodsda> thanks ;~)
[01:01] <stuck1> And this is for a client who might be a lifer if I can get this to work.
[01:01] <glitsj16> spaceboy909: the new Opera 9.51 works very well, fast as a bullet
[01:01] <Sylphid> Elijah, System > Administration > Hardware Drivers ?
[01:01] <rockenrola> stuck1: thats drastic. what seems to be the problem?
[01:01] <dumb_dumb> guys
[01:01] <dumb_dumb> need help
[01:01] <_2> stuck1 install xp.  but be sure and read the "EULA" befor you click  [yes i accept the agreement]
[01:02] <stuck1> I don't read or obey eulas.
[01:02] <hwilde> is there something on boot that tries to get on any open network??
[01:02] <Elijah> Sylphid, no, it was some other program actually, it was really nice
[01:02] <hwilde> is there something on boot that tries to get on any open network??
[01:02] <stuck1> further, it would be tinyxp rev5.
[01:02] <azexian> anyone? battery always shows 100%, what can I do?
[01:02] <dumb_dumb> i want to install ubuntu on my AMD turion 64 X2
[01:02] <_2> stuck1 that only makes you a liar.
[01:02] <dumb_dumb> which one i should download
[01:02] <spaceboy909> I've used Opera on Windows.....I always love the features but the problems I can't deal with anymore
[01:02] <Drk_Guy> What can i do to transform MKV into AVI, then add Subtitles?
[01:02] <dumb_dumb> AMD or i386
[01:02] <lunaris> Elijah : I have problem with amsn...I cannot see diplay pictures from my contacts...Any idea?
[01:02] <Sylphid> Sylphid, linux-restricted-modules?
[01:02] <Ahadiel> dumb_dumb, Just go with i386, unless you have >2gb of ram.
[01:02] <stuck1> rockenrola: The wifi shows up under hardware drivers, but then there is no way to connect.
[01:02] <Drk_Guy> spaceboy909: Firefox pwns man
[01:02] <spaceboy909> Last I looked I don't think Opera had 9.51 for Linux.......do they?
[01:03] <Drk_Guy> spaceboy909: They do have it
[01:03] <dumb_dumb> I got 2 G of RAM
[01:03] <glitsj16> spaceboy: sure they do, even have a deb repo these days
[01:03] <stuck1> _2: No, not at all.  I don't read, abide, or allow EULAs to enter my consciousness.  They are abhorant, immoral, illegal, and ludicrous.
[01:03] <Ahadiel> dumb_dumb, Then go with i386 as I said.
[01:03] <rockenrola> stuck1: what's the wifi card model? is your wireless WEP, WPA ?
[01:03] <Drk_Guy> spaceboy909: I have it here, and i totally recommend Firefox instead of it
[01:03] <spaceboy909> Ok..........I'll see about updating it........I've always preferred Opera's features, but Firefox is catching up with those plugins.
[01:03] <dumb_dumb> ok than
[01:03] <stuck1> rockenrola: No it's wide open.  It's a b43 broadcom
[01:03] <Drk_Guy> What can i do to transform MKV into AVI, then add Subtitles?
[01:03] <Drk_Guy> !video
[01:03] <TiredWolf> stuck1: well said
[01:04] <spaceboy909> Well, I've been using firefox exclusively for a year now......maybe I just need to tweak it some m ore.
[01:04] <Drk_Guy> !transcoding
[01:04] <stuck1> TiredWolf: Thanks!
[01:04] <Drk_Guy> spaceboy909: about:config provides hidden secrets ;)
[01:04] <rockenrola> stuck1: what have you tried so far?
[01:04] <Sylphid> Elijah, you may want the nvidia-settings package as well for configuring xorg.conf
[01:05] <stuck1> rockenrola: Right clicking stuff and trying to enable....
[01:05] <azexian> anyone? battery always shows 100%, what can I do?
[01:05] <spaceboy909> Ok, thanks, I'll check them out!
[01:05] <hwilde> is there something on boot that tries to get on any open network??
[01:06] <lunaris> stuck1 : I have problem with amsn...I cannot see diplay pictures from my contacts...Any idea?
[01:06] <Sylphid> azexian, dobt this helps but mine used to do that as well until recent updates
[01:06] <stuck1> lunaris: I use pidgin. :)
[01:06] <glitsj16> Drk_Guy: tried ffmpeg (from medibuntu repo) yet for the mkv2avi conversion ? winFF (http://www.winff.org/) has a nice frontend to go with that ..
[01:06] <azexian> Sylphid that might help, perhaps if I update...
[01:06] <hwilde> is there something on boot that tries to get on any open network??
[01:06] <lunaris> stuck1 : thanks
[01:06] <Drk_Guy> glitsj16: Gonna try, thx
[01:07] <lunaris> Does anyone use aMSN?
[01:07] <Ahadiel> !patience | hwilde
[01:07] <Drk_Guy> glitsj16: I've already found a Subtitle editor
[01:07] <hwilde> Ahadiel, new people joined!  maybe they know the answer
[01:07] <glitsj16> Drk_Guy: yw, yes there are a few nice ones around these days, vid preview and all :)
[01:07] <rituais> x\
[01:08] <Drk_Guy> glitsj16: I0'll give you updates ASAP
[01:08] <rockenrola> stuck1: have you checkout this page http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[01:08] <Shak-> has anyone gotten their iphone to work with itunes using virtualbox/vmware?
[01:08] <stuck1> rockenrola: Thanks, I'll read it now...
[01:08] <glitsj16> Drk_Guy: okay, never done the mkv to avi thing myself, but ffmpeg should be able to handle it
[01:08] <rockenrola> stuck1: also it seems to be a channel for broadcom users #bcm-users
[01:08] <Drk_Guy> glitsj16: Thx
[01:09] <isakey> BACKPORTS SUCKS!

[01:12] <Milos> Guys, how can I add and then give a user priveleges to /var/www/ on ProFTPD?
[01:13] <legend2440> stuck1: pretty sure you need to install   	b43-firmware_1.0-0cafuego0_all.deb to get it going. find it here  http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/dists/hardy-cafuego/broadcom/
[01:13] <bobertdos> isakey?
[01:13] <isakey> bobertdos: what?
[01:13] <histo> !user > Milos
[01:13] <bobertdos> isakey: :p Okay, random people calling me........never mind :D
[01:14] <rockenrola> greg__: try gnome-panel
[01:14] <azexian> milos for any folder, you can change the permissions very easily like this: chmod 777 /folder to make it writable by all or: chmod -R  777 /folder for all subfolders too, remember to not do this too all folders, as you need permissions
[01:14]  * AndrewGearhar2 sobs loudly because nobody is helping him
[01:14] <Delts> Hey guys, just tried to watch a flash video in firefox and I was getting no volume from it.  I'm using the adobe plug in
[01:14] <legend2440> stuck1: actually  	bcm43xx-firmware_1.4-0cafuego1_all.deb is for hardy   http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/dists/hardy-cafuego/broadcom/
[01:14] <azexian> greg__: you can press alt+f2 to open the run diag, then type gnome-panel, from this point you will get a panel, you can right click on this, and click add panel to make another one, and then you need to add all the applets back
[01:15] <Milos> azexian, so I just add a user like this: adduser myuser and then chmod -R /var/www/ and then I can login with that user on FTP?
[01:15] <Bodsda> is there a recommended way to configure pulseaudio?
[01:15] <histo> !broadcomm
[01:15] <azexian> Delts: I had this, try to upgrade to flash 10
[01:15] <histo> !broadcom
[01:15] <bobertdos> !raid > AndrewGearhar2
[01:15] <azexian> milos don't forget the premisson chmod -R 777 /var/www
[01:15] <Delts> Thanks, will do azexian
[01:15] <Schumbi> hi
[01:15] <azexian> Delts: np ;)
[01:15] <Bodsda> azexian, wwooh! 777 not good
[01:16] <Milos> Bodsda, why not.
[01:16] <Schumbi> somebody who knows how to teach gajim to communicate via IRC?
[01:16] <azexian> Milos not always good though, better off making it 700 for that user, or else all users can read and right, including bad peoples :p
[01:16] <greg__> Azexian, Alt-f2 doesnt work nor did gnome-panel
[01:16] <Milos> azexian, Bodsda, I'm the only user ;)
[01:17] <azexian> greg__: ok, in that case you have done something very bad, can you login
[01:17] <SolarWar> does ubuntu place application core dumps somewhere special?
[01:17] <azexian> Milos will this be online?
[01:17] <bobertdos> Schumbi: Gaim is Pidgin now. Yes, we can help you with that.
[01:17] <Bodsda> Milos, 777 is read write execute to everyone, thats an extremely radical solution to a perms prob, and no your not, theres you and root
[01:17] <Milos> azexian, yep.
[01:17] <Milos> Bodsda, I'm root as well...
[01:17] <Bodsda> Milos, are you sure?? i doubt you are
[01:17] <rockenrola> greg__: are you sure you are in gnome. you haven't been experimenting with openbox or similar ?
[01:17] <Milos> o_o
[01:17] <Schumbi> bobertdos: not gaim but gajim :-) it is a jabber client
[01:17] <Milos> Bodsda it's my server >_>
[01:18] <greg__> yes i am at my desktop and can access my documets, network etc, but not applications, settings etc
[01:18] <Milos> Bodsda, I'm logged in as root right now...
[01:18] <azexian> Milos ok, in that case you want to do this: sudo chown user /var/www and then you can chown 700 -R /var/www that way, only you can read-write to it
[01:18] <MattJ> Hi Schumbi, join<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[01:18] <Milos> azexian, thanks! :)
[01:18] <soldats> Milos: never log in as root it is not needed
[01:18] <Bodsda> Milos, you activated the root password, why?
[01:18] <azexian> Milos np ;)
[01:18] <MattJ> Schumbi: more Jabber help is available in ##jabber :)
[01:18] <Milos> because maybe
[01:18] <Milos> when
[01:18] <azexian> soldats: it's a server, why would you want to be a user :p
[01:18] <Milos> you get a server
[01:18] <Milos> you can only
[01:19] <FloodBot1> Milos: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:19] <Milos> login
[01:19] <greg__> everything seems to be working ok apart from I have no panels??
[01:19] <Milos> as that user
[01:19] <Schumbi> ah well  thanks :-)
[01:19] <Milos> azexian, excellent response
[01:19] <AndrewGearhar2> bobertdos: thanks... I'll check there first
[01:19] <glitsj16> Bodsda: have you tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 yet for setting up pulseaudio ? there's also http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup which provides general info on how to get all kinds of sound apps working with pulseaudio
[01:20] <gleaken> Is there any known problem with horiz scrolling with an apple mighty mouse in Hardy?  I have edited my xorg.conf to mirror a 7.04 machine that they were working fine on, now, on the hardy install, the horiz won't work.  The vertical scroll is fine and they are recognized.
[01:20] <azexian> I really think that this channel either needs to be split to ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-server, or people need to understand the difference, servers need root, how ubuntu does it is not all that good, if someone has a user password, they can delete everything! on a server, you give the users very little rights, and do everything important as root, with a very strong password, that's just how it is done
[01:21] <Bodsda> glitsj16, i was just intrigued as to how easy it was to get it working, i find it easier just to uninstall the thing, but thanks for your links, they confirmed my thoughts
[01:21] <addernato1> hey can someone help me please? :S
[01:22] <glitsj16> Bodsda: no problem
[01:22] <azexian> addernato1: what's the prob?
[01:22] <addernato1> i dont know how to install .tar.gz files
[01:22] <gleaken> is there any known issue with Guild Wars and Hardy,  Again, I had it working in 7.04, now, it freezes and I have a heck of a time getting X back, it doesn't crash it, but locks it up for a good long while.  This is on a GMA x3100 with compiz disabled because on 7.04, I found that running beryl and GW wasn't a good idea
[01:23] <Bodsda> azexian, if your doing everything as root, why the hell do you need to give the user rwe ?
[01:23] <azexian> addernato1: that sounds like source, you don't install source, you compile it, but first you must extract, to do this, just right click on it, and open with archive manager on desktop, or you can use the command line, from there,why you can then run it
[01:23] <Sylphid> azexian, there is an ubuntu-server channel
[01:23] <azexian> Bodsda: because users could be doing little tasks
[01:23] <glitsj16> gleaken: don't have input on those specific issues, but you v-can always search bugs.launchpad.net for known issues with any ubuntu supported package
[01:23] <addernato1> i have extracted it but there is no install file in it
[01:23] <azexian> Sylphid that needs to be put in the channel topic, I didn't know about it before, so I don't see why anyone else would
[01:23] <Bodsda> azexian, why not just use the user and sudo?
[01:23] <azexian> addernato1: ok, is there a MakeFile
[01:24] <addernato1> no
[01:24] <Mile5> Why doesn't my "Screen Resolution" thing in system preferences identify my screen?
[01:24] <bobertdos> addernato1: The thing to ask is, what IS this archive?
[01:24] <Dr_willis> addernato1,  perhaps the programs homepage has some docs.
[01:24] <azexian> Bodsda: because you have to constantly type sudo if you are always doing root things, and it's pointless, if you have root, and then make user less secure, it makes more sense
[01:24] <azexian> addernato1: what is the program?
[01:24] <addernato1> a game, its a remake of the mariokart double dash game for linux
[01:25] <Yon> hey hey
[01:25] <greg__> Hey Guys, I think I just solved my own problem re "no panels"
[01:25] <azexian> addernato1: a rom?
[01:25] <azexian> glad to hear it greg__ were you in gnome?
[01:25] <Bodsda> azexian, how does it make more sense, just increase the sudo timeout and you type it once and you dont have to type it again for 30 mins (oir whatever you extend the timeout to)
[01:25] <Yon> i need a hand i have to sort a ls output to only show files that are less that 100kb in size
[01:25] <greg__> I rebooted and changed the session to GNOME and "voila!!
[01:25] <azexian> Bodsda: what's the point in that, how is that any better then being root, you consider that more secure?
[01:25] <addernato1> no it's not a rom
[01:25] <azexian> addernato1: ok, what is inside the archive?
[01:25] <bobertdos> azexian: (It may or may not be source code, actually. Source code usually comes in tar.bz2 files).
[01:26] <addernato1> i read somthing on the forums about this and you have to complie it using ./compile?
[01:26] <azexian> greg__: glad to hear it =)
[01:26] <Yon> i think that i need to use "ls | find -size
[01:26] <Bodsda> azexian, yes, because after a time period you need the password, servers need to be secure, this is not achieved by giving 777
[01:26] <Dr_willis> Yon,  i belive 'find' can do it with out the need of ls.
[01:26] <azexian> addernato1: what is in that archive
[01:26] <greg__> Can you use "alien" to install tar file in Debian/Ubuntu??
[01:26] <azexian> bobertdos: I was suggesting 777 for one folder, not the whole server, I infact said don't do for whole server straight afterwards
[01:27] <rafaelscj> alien is fine
[01:27] <Yon> oh so how would it display al files as ls would in the cwd
[01:27] <Ahadiel> greg__, Alien is used for .rpm packages, however it's not recommended to do so.
[01:27] <azexian> greg__: alien is for rpm -- deb conversions
[01:27] <greg__> Ok Thanks!
[01:27] <bobertdos> azexian: I think we're talking about two different people here, but never mind :)
[01:27] <Dr_willis> Yon,  you could make find print only the names of the files that match your needs and pipe the list to the ls command.. perhaps.
[01:27] <Bodsda> azexian, 777 should never really be used, it is never necessary and activating the root password is definately not secure or necessary
[01:27] <Sylphid> greg__, tar files are archives you can extract them with the tar -x command
[01:27] <azexian> bobertdos: sorry, yeah :p
[01:28] <Yon> true thanks will try that
[01:28] <bobertdos> azexian: (gotta love the confusion of IRC traffic :P)
[01:28] <azexian> Bodsda: root is needed, users are silly with their password sometimes, which leads to insecurity, I would never give out my root password, but I wouldn't care if someone found out my user password AFTER I edited its rights
[01:28] <azexian> bobertdos: you both start with b, it was close enough :p
[01:29] <Sylphid> greg__, if it has another suffix after tar such as .bz2 or gz you will need to uncompress it with an extra option such as -j or -f
[01:29] <addernato1> ok new problem lol
[01:29] <histo> azexian: well on a debian system with sudo your user password could be disasterous as well.
[01:29] <bobertdos> addernato1: Okay, what is the new problem?
[01:29] <azexian> histro that was my point, Bodsda is the one who suggests this against root and users with less rights
[01:29] <kdb424> Sup
[01:29] <Bodsda> azexian, i just fail to see the point of having a weak password and a strong password when just a single strong password will do fine
[01:30] <histo> azexian: well its the same thing.
[01:30] <azexian> addernato1: please ask before pm'ing me, I'm talking to lots of people, so I can't help you for a bit, if you type it here someone else might be able to help you while I talk to others
[01:30] <thinman1189> in ufw I need to allow a port range but it won't let me, any idea how?
[01:30] <addernato1> ok sorry
[01:30] <histo> azexian: look at your user as root and the others as normal users.  If you lose your acount your system is comprimised the same way if you lost your root.
[01:31] <kdb424> Hey. I'm newer to ubuntu, and pretty much linux, and I was wondering if there are any programs that I should get? (this is a tripleboot system, and not my main OS. It's above windows, but lower than mac. Might beat mac though)
[01:31] <azexian> Bobsda the simple fact is, linux is multiuser, so you can't expect every user to have the respect or knowledge of the power of their password as you do
[01:31] <histo> !ask | addernato1
[01:31] <addernato1> can anyone help me in setting up my nvidia geforce fx 5700 dual head graphics card to run with 2 monitors?
[01:31] <Elijah> Sylphid, i found the program, the one for installing nvidia drivers, it is called envy
[01:31] <azexian> histro, please direct this to bodsda, this is my point
[01:31] <histo> !better > kdb424
[01:31] <WatchDragon> ok samba is drivign my nutty
[01:31] <Yon> find /home -name "*" -size -8k | ls -s
[01:31] <Ahadiel> addernato1, Make sure you are using the nvidia driver and do sudo nvidia-settings.
[01:31] <addernato1> ahadiel may i pm you?
[01:31] <Yon> that is what i got so far and it seems to just use the ls command
[01:32] <Ahadiel> addernato1, no
[01:32] <histo> !dualhead > addernato1
[01:32] <addernato1> i am using the nividia drivers
[01:32] <iCEifer> hello, when I connect my digital camera it detects it and says to import pics or ignore....if I choose either one it does nothing and I cannot see the camera under computer, /media, etc....how can I read the SD card?
[01:32] <histo> azexian: gotcha nad its histo not histro
[01:32] <azexian> sorry histo
[01:33] <histo> Yon: well its piping the output of find to ls
[01:33] <Dr_willis> Yon,  you may need to use xargs to  hav4 it run ls on each specific found file
[01:33] <Slyboots> Mm, how do you have linux mount disks as read-only on boot?
[01:33] <glitsj16> kdb424: loads of applications available in the repositories .. you can always browse around in synaptic and launch a search on "name and description" if you're looking for something specific
[01:33] <kdb424> ubottu: I sent you a message back
[01:33] <azexian> addernato1: do you have nvidia installed?
[01:33] <Slyboots> Im trying to boot my machine from the live-disk, and I dont want it to mount the drives as rw
[01:33] <kdb424> lmao. Fooled
[01:34] <histo> kdb424: you may want to install nvidia-settings
[01:34] <thinman1189> does firestarter work with ufw?
[01:34] <Bodsda> Slyboots, change the perms by chmod or look in the fstab file
[01:34] <bobertdos> iCEifer: What brand and model is the camera? Do you happen to know if the card is formatted in FAT? It should be.........
[01:34] <jeeves__> does anyone know how to fix the headphone issue on Toshiba laptops?
[01:34] <kdb424> glitsj16: None other than compiz that are just fun to play with? I knew that was one that many had, and didn't know if there were other like it
[01:34] <histo> Slyboots: is it a windows drive?
[01:34] <glitsj16> thinman1189: firestarter is another iptables frontend, an alternative to ufw
[01:34] <Slyboots> Linux disks
[01:34] <kdb424> histo: Thanks. I'm on it now
[01:34] <iCEifer> bobertdos, canon powershot, card hmmm...should be FAT
[01:35] <histo> Slyboots: uggh.  Maybe look at menu options
[01:35] <rockenrola> jeeves__: what headphones issue ?
[01:35] <Slyboots> Mm..
[01:35] <AndrewGearhar2> bobertdos: thanks, the fakeRAID tip was exactly what I needed.
[01:35] <bobertdos> iCEifer: That's odd.......Ubuntu doesn't have any problem with my A550
[01:36] <iCEifer> bobertdos, hmmm, maybe I will try rebooting :)
[01:36] <jeeves__> rockenrola, on Toshiba laptops (due to the sound chip), we've been having issues with getting the sound to work.  right now, I can get the speakers to work, but if I plug in the headphones, I get nothing.
[01:36] <glitsj16> kdb424: for graphical effects not that i know off no, compiz can be scripted as well, but that's not really a separate application heh
[01:36] <wegstar> Hello all, I'm having a bit of trouble installing Ubuntu onto my Thinkpad T61... it stops due to an error while installing grub.... is there a way I could manually install it?
[01:36] <AndrewGearhar2> anybody have any idea where the weather information in the location panel comes from?
[01:36] <RYknow> Hey guys. Got a quick question.
[01:36] <thinman1189> glitsj16: ufw won't let me allow a port range, for some reason, but I know how in firestarter. know a way to do it in ufw?
[01:36] <Bodsda> How can i launch an app (from cli) and have it open on workspace 2 instead of my current workspace?
[01:36] <kdb424> glitsj16: It didn't have to be graphical, I was just using that as an example
[01:36] <azexian> wegstar: you can manually install, but what error?
[01:36] <histo> !grub > wegstar
[01:36] <RYknow> I just burned xubuntu with brasero, and when I fire up my laptop, it just gives an "error loading os"
[01:37] <joshua24> could someone help me i get this issue when trying to use gscc drivers- compiling it. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/30147/plain/
[01:37] <RYknow> What settings do I need to change with brasero?
[01:37] <glitsj16> thinman1189: never used ufw sorry, there's bound to be a nice howto on the forums i'd imagine
[01:37] <rockenrola> jeeves__: mine is not toshiba, but in alsamixer i have a different channel for headphones and other for the speaker called front
[01:37] <azexian> RYknow: did you check the disk? it could have also been a bad iso, do a checksum
[01:37] <azexian> !checksum > RYknow
[01:37] <thinman1189> glitsj16: nope, just more people looking.
[01:37] <eraldo> is there anything like network-manager but for the cli ?
[01:37] <legend2440> thinman1189: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5380211
[01:37] <simtower> is bzr-gtk the best bazaar gui?
[01:37] <jeeves__> rockenrola, hummm.  I've seend a LOT of nasty "hacks" to try to get it to work, and so far, there is no resolve for it
[01:38] <rafaelscj> thinman1189, in my opnion, firestarter is easier
[01:38] <rockenrola> jeeves__: ok
[01:38] <bobertdos> AndrewGearhar2L I think it uses weather.com or something similar........
[01:38] <RYknow> how do I do a checksum?
[01:38] <azexian> RYknow: look at the pm from the bot, should explain it
[01:38] <joshua24> eraldo try cnetwork-manager but idk thats i got from fedora core 6 :|
[01:38] <joshua24> that was a guess
[01:39] <rockenrola> RYknow: try md5sum
[01:39] <RYknow> responce from the bot: ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about checksum
[01:39] <Dr_willis> thinman1189,  from the docs i am reading.. ufw cant do ranges.
[01:39] <Bodsda> eraldo, sudo <devicename> up/down    eg        sudo eth0 up

[01:40] <RYknow> Cool, thanks guys.
[01:40] <rafaelscj> !flood > rafaelscj
[01:40] <thinman1189> do I have to uninstall ufw or just disable it before I use firestarter?

[01:40] <kdb424> Hey, I'm having wireless problems with my macboo pro. ANyone have a mcbook pro?
[01:40] <Dr_willis> thinman1189,  both just run specific iptables commands to generate rules.. I would say disable it.
[01:40] <kindofabuzz> macboo mcpro, that's what i'm gonna name my kid
[01:40] <azexian> kdb424: try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro
[01:41] <Blaqlight> I have tried to get menu transparency to work; it doesn't, fbsetbg won't keep my requested desktop wallpaper. and fbdesk doesn't do anything but display a menu. none of the icons actually work.
[01:41] <susanna777> hi i would like to know if anyone has used myth tv and if so, does it support closed captioning?
[01:41] <histo> Blaqlight: have you asked int he flux rooms?
[01:41] <Blaqlight> histo yes
[01:41] <Blaqlight> for three days,
[01:41] <histo> susanna777: the cc is controlled threw your equipment not the software.
[01:42] <thinman1189> Dr_willis:  ok. thanks everyone that helped.
[01:42] <azexian> susanna777: try /join #mythtv more specialised people for mythtv there
[01:42] <susanna777> histo, so i would need a tv tuner that supported CC and then I could turn CC on?
[01:42] <kdb424> azexian: I did that. Still having issues after a couple restarts
[01:42] <histo> Blaqlight: perhaps user permitions to your home? maybe try #xubuntu
[01:42] <susanna777> azexian, okay i didn't know there was a myth tv room i will look for it
[01:42] <Blaqlight> user permissions are fine.
[01:42] <rafaelscj> !bot > rafaelscj
[01:42] <Blaqlight> I assure you.
[01:43] <histo> Blaqlight: well how did you install flux?
[01:43] <unop> Blaqlight, fbsetbg only works for the current session -- if you want to have a more permanent wallpaper, put a line in ~/.fluxbox/startup
[01:43] <azexian> kdb424: I'm afraid your best friend is google, I don't have a mac, feel free to keep asking, or search the channel list, may be a macubuntu channel
[01:43] <Blaqlight> at first from the repositories, then I removed it and built from source.
[01:43] <rootyrooty> Hi, I have 140 Gig free but Firefox is telling me that I have no disc space left. any ideas?
[01:43] <unop> Blaqlight, i've never found fbdesk to work well -- i use idesk now
[01:43] <azexian> susscorfa: np, just search first, try /just #whatiwant if it doesn't exist/too small ask here, just tends to be more specialised
[01:44] <Blaqlight> unop ahhh... ok. too both.
[01:44] <kdb424> azexian: Thanks so much. Google hates me after about 200 pages of searching on one topic. lol
[01:44] <Blaqlight> kdb424: google is a piece of software code, it is incapable of hating you.
[01:44] <rafaelscj> !java
[01:44] <azexian> kdb424: lol, you'll make up, if not, try the haxor version :p or perhaps the brazil version, apparently if you search 100 pages, google send you chocolate :p
[01:44] <simtower> google is sentient
[01:45] <kdb424> Blaqlight: I would like to think so. lol
[01:45] <kdb424> azexian: It keeps bringing me the same pages after a while
[01:45] <kdb424> azexian: or at least the same info
[01:45] <Blaqlight> on top of that, its the most popular search engine in the world.. prolly does 3 or 4 million requests a minute. no time to be hating.
[01:46] <azexian> kdb424: well, if you keep waiting, eventually at some point, a chocolate bar will come your way, I like to think of that as 'google's pushing influence' of real life :p
[01:46] <histo> thats a lot of chocolate
[01:46] <azexian> kdb424: so what's the problem?
[01:46] <kdb424> I know. I love it, but sometimes, I just have really bad luck and have problems that I'm too dumb to figure out and everyone else has
[01:46] <d-rock328> does anyone know if it is still possible to link a hotmail acct. to evolution
[01:46] <d-rock328> ?
[01:46] <kdb424> when I use sudo apt-get it will stop downloading on bigger applications
[01:46] <unop> Blaqlight, as for menu transparency  did you set  session.screen0.menu.alpha in ~/.fluxbox/init ?
[01:47] <kdb424> randomly, but I can still use the net, or download more. Only small stuff though
[01:47] <azexian> kdb424: ok, so you're timing out, overheating perhaps?
[01:47] <d-rock328> anyone
[01:47] <citizen42alpha> hello.
[01:47] <unop> d-rock328, unless hotmail has opened up to POP/SMTP again or is using IMAP now -- no
[01:47] <unop> d-rock328, i've heard of work arounds this -- but they are hacks and not quite supported
[01:47] <kdb424> azexian: Heat is fine. I keep an eye on it, and not timing out, cause it works great if I plug ethernet in and redo it a second later
[01:47] <azexian> kdb424: it happens on routers too, sometimes you get them so you have to reset after so much downloading, the bthomehub is the worse for that, reseting weekly...
[01:48] <kdb424> azexian: and the speed is fine till it dead stops
[01:48] <d-rock328> unop - thnxs im just trying to figure out some way to do it hot mail is open to it but not on free accnts
[01:48] <Saladin> Quick question... How do you reset metacity?
[01:48] <azexian> kdb424: are you using ndiswrapper?
[01:49] <kdb424> I have tried all meathods, but right now I am using madwifi drivers with the svn
[01:49] <jeeves__> how do I reload a modprobe if I've just added/changed something?
[01:49] <Bikerbob> anyone help me play media? I cant get more than a few seconds of playback?
[01:49] <azexian> kdb424: if it is atheros (I think madwifi is) then you are better off using the ubuntu-extras, they have it inbuild
[01:49] <thinman1189> I installed firestarter and when I click start it says eth0 is not ready, but I'm connected to the internet.
[01:49] <rootyrooty> Hi, I have 140 Gig free but Firefox is telling me that I have no disc space left. any ideas?
[01:50] <azexian> jeeves__: depends how lazy you are, might be a better way, for me: sudo rmmod module; sudo modprobe module
[01:50] <Voxicles> Okay, quick question, I used "sudo aticonfig --dtop=horizontal -f --mode2=1600x1200,1280x1024,1152x864,1024x768,800x600" to extend my desktop to my second monitor, how do I get the second montior to have it's own resolution?
[01:50] <IndyGunFreak> rootyrooty: that is weird, pastebin the output of df
[01:50] <azexian> kdb424: I mean the restricted ones sorry
[01:50] <jeeves__> azexian, thanks.  I'm frickin' around with the sound driver
[01:51] <azexian> jeeves__: fair enough, there might be a better way, but that's the quick answer
[01:51] <kdb424> azexian: I PM'd you
[01:51] <azexian> kdb424: but you don't have to use cvs, that could be the problem, it might just be unstable
[01:51] <jeeves__> azexian, I'm thinking I just need to reboot
[01:51] <Yon> my imp is broken
[01:51] <azexian> jeeves__: hehe, that tends to unload modules too, but rmmod will remove a module
[01:51] <rootyrooty> IndyGunFreak ok. doing so now
[01:52] <jeeves__> azexian, I'm trying to fix the headphone issue with this Toshiba
[01:52] <kdb424> I am using all of the updates all the way from sable to beta, (I started from the bottom and worked my way up) none worked
[01:52] <xTheGoat121x> Evening all... I'm having a problem with Pulseaudio...
[01:52] <azexian> jeeves__: I'm afraid I don't know too much about that
[01:52] <jeeves__> azexian, no worries
[01:52] <rootyrooty> IndyGunFreak: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/30149/
[01:53] <Bikerbob> could media play just halting have to do with hardware compatibility?
[01:53] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: what is the issue ?
[01:53] <IndyGunFreak> rootyrooty: well, df is showing 100% of your drive is in use.
[01:54] <diogo> Hey, have a question can X version influence on ati fglrx performance on linux.... can the patches that are applied make it run better or worse?
[01:54] <Bikerbob> how do you kill one program again?
[01:54] <Bikerbob> in X sorry
[01:54] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, I set up PulseAudio according to these instructions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578
[01:54] <K350> Hi, where can I cahnge icon size for teh desktop icons for instance?
[01:54] <glitsj16> Bikerbob: killall <program name>, or with sudo if it is under root's hold
[01:55] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, and now... my entire system hiccups whenever a sound plays
[01:55] <Bikerbob> thought there was a gnome keyboard shortcut no?
[01:55] <rootyrooty> IndyGunFreak: how do I find out what is using it? This should not be
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> rootyrooty: i really don't know, i'm a bit perplexed by that
[01:56] <rootyrooty> I had compiz / firefox running and the drive was full, after I emptied /tmp and had a reboot
[01:56] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: i see .. not familiar with that specific page, i find http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 to be rather helpfull for pulseaudio issues, might try that if you haven't already seen it
[01:57] <jeeves__> how can I find out why firefox and eoulition keeps crashing?
[01:57] <deserteagle> does anyone know why some avi's all of the sudden playback with scratched up audio after i installed a new sound card?
[01:57] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: it specifically mentions a fix for audio stuttering if that's what you meant by hiccups
[01:57] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, that link I posted was identical to the one you just sent.
[01:57] <Prez00> hello
[01:57] <Dein> i'm getting constant attacks on port 51400, and firestarter is clogging up my cpu up to 40%.. any ideas on how to prevent that?
[01:58] <__yy> Is there an option I can give to apt-get to have it just tell me what it would ordinarily do (like apt-get install package --pretend , or something of the sort)
[01:58] <Prez00> i just upgraded to latest firefox, 3.01 vis software updates on Ubuntu 8.04... it still crashes on http://www.laprensa.com.ni does it crash for anyone else?
[01:58] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, actually, the guide fixed my stuttering audio... but every time a sound plays, the system literally hiccups... the mouse and the entire system freezes for only an instant.
[01:58] <alex-weej> __yy: don't think so. what are you trying to do? detect what dependencies it brings in?
[01:58] <Prez00> eeeeerrrr, now it does not crash...
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> Prez00: seems to be working fine for me
[01:59] <alex-weej> __yy: actually, use the --simulate option
[01:59] <Prez00> IndyGunFreak: was crsahing this morning, they update the page quite a bit..
[01:59] <__yy> alex-weej: ahh, thank you
[01:59] <Voxicles> SO crazy newb question, but where do I get all the cool desktop effects?
[01:59] <Prez00> IndyGunFreak: so i cannot pin it down..
[01:59] <deserteagle> xTheGoat121x: was your audio stuttering like if it was scratched up?
[01:59] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: hmm, sorry, can't think of anything that relates to what you describe
[01:59] <Prez00> IndyGunFreak: not crashing for me either right now..
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> Prez00: then i would say the issue is on their end, not yours
[01:59] <legend2440> Voxicles: type aticonfig in terminal and read section about resolutions   aticonfig --resolution=Screen#,W1xH1,W2xH2,W3xH3,...      Set the modes for the specified screen.  You may specify several       resolutions separated by commas.       Screens start at 0.  You can use 1 for dual-head
[02:00] <xTheGoat121x> deserteagle, before I followed the guide, yes... now it plays fine, just with the momentary delay.
[02:00] <deserteagle> xTheGoat121x: mind if i ask which guide you followed?
[02:00] <Voxicles> thx legend
[02:00] <xTheGoat121x> deserteagle, sure... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578
[02:00] <jeeves__> is there any tests that can be done on Pidgen to see why it's not connecting?
[02:01] <Mr_Fixit> can someone give me an idea of what to write in the fsab if i want to add one drive, 2 parts..
[02:02] <Mr_Fixit> *fstab
[02:02] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: have you tried experimenting with a different nice level yet ? might be a shortage of RAM or CPU issue with pulseaudio set to -11 as per those instructions
[02:02] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, oh?   I allowed the ports for all of them but I still can't connect to msn. any ideas?
[02:04] <Mr_Fixit> thinman1189:  microsoft sucks??
[02:04] <luky> hey, does anyone have the same problem as I have? I can't play MP3 and watch a youtube movie at the same time... the sound doesnt work...
[02:04] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: the more negative you go, the more priviledged a process gets
[02:04] <Mr_Fixit> i need to know what to write in the fstab if i want to add one drive, 2 partitions..
[02:04] <Jeah> Hi, can anyone tell me how to do a thorough error/defect checking on a hard drive?  Something that checks free space as well as existing files?
[02:04] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: so make it less negative i'd guess
[02:05] <jeeves__> anyone?  coneection testing for Pidgen?
[02:05] <Sorcererbob> jeeves__: issues with msn?
[02:05] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, okay... I appreciate the input... I'll try a higher number.
[02:05] <Sorcererbob> I'm experiencing them on windows atm, current msn version
[02:05] <deserteagle> xTheGoat121x: were you having issues with pulseaudio or any of the other ones?
[02:05] <Voxicles> Legend, I keep getting "aticonfig: Writing to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' failed. Bad file descriptor.
[02:05] <Voxicles> "
[02:05] <xTheGoat121x> deserteagle, just PulseAudio
[02:05] <jeeves__> Sorcererbob, I don't know.  I just rebooted, and now it's stuck on connecting.
[02:06] <deserteagle> xTheGoat121x: :(
[02:06] <Sorcererbob> ...is it trying to connect to an msn account?
[02:06] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: just guessing here that that might interfere and cause your issues, easily checked though .. look at the realtime scheduling too perhaps
[02:06] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: realtime-priority that is
[02:07] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, okay, thank you so much... I've had this problem most of the week and it got so old I was actually using XP
[02:07] <thurloat> Is anyone else having issues signing into MSN ?
[02:07] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, this is the first lead I've had at all.
[02:07] <Sorcererbob> yes
[02:07] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: understand, irritating issue
[02:07] <Sorcererbob> thurloat: yes
[02:07] <jeeves__> Sorcererbob, it's saying it's a "writing error"
[02:07] <Jeah> Is there a way to do a thorough error/defect check on a hard drive in Linux that checks for problems with free space as well as files, file tables, etc?  Since the drive is empty, fsck just immediately says it's fine, but I'd like to check it out more thoroughly if possible.
[02:07] <thurloat> sorcererbob thanks, glad it's not my network flaking out again
[02:07] <xTheGoat121x> :D
[02:07] <Sorcererbob> jeeves__... well if it was working, and it now isn't, then I would think its a fault at the msn server end (assuming its an msn account)
[02:08] <jeeves__> Sorcererbob, looking into it.  hey look, it connects
[02:08] <Sorcererbob> np thurloat
[02:08] <Sorcererbob> serious? not fair! :P
[02:08] <Mr_Fixit> i need to know what to write in the fstab if i want to add one drive, 2 partitions..
[02:08] <jeeves__> Sorcererbob, nm, it's still not connecting
[02:08] <Sorcererbob> heh
[02:08] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: overall for sound you will get better performance and less chances of hiccups with a realtime kernel, but that's the 'hit the fly with an elephant' solution :p
[02:10] <neil_d> How do I check if a CPU supports hardware virtualization ?  something in /proc/cpuinfo I believe
[02:11] <mandark> can anyone tell me how to know wat is my sound drivers name
[02:11] <legend2440> Voxicles: are you doing   sudo aticonfig?
[02:11] <histo> mandark: lsmod
[02:11] <rockenrola> Mr_Fixit: what is the filesystem on those partitions ?
[02:11] <histo> mandark: lspci  and dmesg can help you figure it out.
[02:11] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, realtime kernel?  I remember mention of a 'tickless' kernel, but I thought anything after 2.6.24-16 was... I know that right now, I'm running 2.6.24-19
[02:12] <Mr_Fixit> fat32
[02:12] <Jeah> Is there a way to do a thorough error/defect check on a hard drive in Linux that checks for problems with free space as well as files, file tables, etc?  Since the drive is empty, fsck just immediately says it's fine, but I'd like to check it out more thoroughly if possible.

[02:12] <ProN00b> how do i view a crashdump ?
[02:12] <DaveS> Can anyone help me?
[02:12] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: not really, the realtime kernels are indicated with the -rt added to the end
[02:12] <hwilde> !ntfs | DaveS
[02:13] <DaveS> OK, Ill try that... Thanks
[02:13] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, ohhhh okay... that's cool.  But I also hear that compiling a custom kernel can be a bear.
[02:13] <mandark> histo:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/30152/   can u tell me which is my sound driver
[02:13] <tical> hey can anyone help me out?
[02:14] <Odd-rationale> !justask | tical
[02:14] <azexian> tical: go on?
[02:14] <xTheGoat121x> tical, depends on your question
[02:14] <glitsj16> Jeah: fsck also has a badblocks support switch, can't remember it's param, but it should be in man fsck somewhere
[02:14] <soul_786> How can I install a linux driver to make my touch panel work on eee pc after ive downloaded the tar.gz file which has the driver?
[02:14] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: no ned for manual compilation, they are in the repo's just as the others
[02:14] <tical> my screen after a period of time goes all white then i have to clear it away with a window
[02:15] <tical> what should i do to fix that?
[02:15] <jeeves__> azexian, well, I fixed the headphone issue!
[02:15] <azexian> sounds like an old beryl bug..
[02:15] <Jeah> glitsj16: Ok, thanks.  I didn't see anything, but I'll look over it again with more of an eye for that term
[02:15] <azexian> jeeves__: excellent, what did you do?
[02:15] <oriez> is it just me or MSN msngr's servers are dow
[02:15] <jeeves__> azexian, enabled the "front0" output!
[02:15] <oriez> down*
[02:15] <Mr_Fixit> rockenrola: ??
[02:15] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, oh really?  Well... if I can't get this to work... I might just go for that.
[02:15] <jeeves__> oriez, naa, I'm asking the same thing!
[02:15] <tical> msn is down for me too
[02:15] <dek> oriez: they are

[02:16] <mandark> histo yes
[02:16] <xTheGoat121x> Wow... the old white screen of death.
[02:16] <histo> mandark: what is the problem?
[02:16] <jeeves__> mandark, is it a Toshiba unit?
[02:16] <oriez> Microsoft are totally loco
[02:16] <azexian> jeeves__: hehe, it's always the simplest things that gets us, same with me, at the occasional lan party, I've spent ages trying to reconfig servers, but it's been a cable or something :p
[02:16] <tical> so anyone know how to fix my bizarre screen problem?
[02:16] <soul_786> !tar.gz
[02:16] <rockenrola> Mr_Fixit: you can try and edit the /etc/fstab directly your self. there is no problem as long as you back it up. Or you could use a GUI to do the job
[02:16] <jeeves__> oriez, is there a way to have it auto connect?  (Pidgen that is)
[02:16] <histo> mandark: lspci will give you more info abou thte soundcard
[02:16] <mandark> histo, actually i wasnt able 2 hear any sound so i was trying the troubleshooting
[02:16] <jeeves__> azexian, I'm a hardware guy, so that's the FIRST thing I check
[02:16] <Mr_Fixit> but rockenrola what do i add to it??
[02:16] <histo> mandark: make sure its not muted in the volume control and in alsamixer
[02:17] <mandark> histo, its not muted
[02:17] <histo> mandark: has it ever worked?
[02:17] <jeeves__> mandark, are you trying to get the sound to work on a Toshiba laptop?
[02:17] <oriez> jeeves__ yes but its not gonna help cuz the server is down
[02:17] <fin_> oh baby
[02:17] <soul_786> !tar.gz | 786soul
[02:17] <fin__> this is pretty hot
[02:17] <mharris_> what is the standard temp range for an nvidia 8600m gpu?
[02:17] <mandark> histo, yes i used it in XP a few days back
[02:17] <xTheGoat121x> All right... going to restart, tryin to fix this.
[02:17] <azexian> jeeves__: the times I've spent hours fixing little things, I always assume it's a big thing, and never check the little things
[02:18] <jejones> Running Hardy Heron; update to kernel 2.6.24-20 has stopped nvidia-glx-new-envy from working; I get API mismatch, because the kernel module is older than the nvidia client.  HOw should I fix this?
[02:19] <jeeves__> azexian, I'd like to install the flashy stuff on this box.  I'm not sure what happened to the Buryl package, but I can't find it
[02:19] <WatchDragon> yah
[02:19] <rockenrola> Mr_Fixit: try this page http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Fstab
[02:19] <mandark> jeeves_ mine is a home pc not a laptop
[02:19] <Jeah> glitsj16: Yeah, I didn't see it in fsck, but I googled it and came up with -c.  That's what you found, too?
[02:19] <isakey> jejones: ubuntu stores all kernels, you may just select previous kernel in a boot time
[02:19] <rockenrola> Mr_Fixit: if you have questions just ask
[02:19] <neil_d> jejones: can't you just tell grub to boot of the older kernel ?
[02:19] <jejones> Thanks, isakey.
[02:19] <jeeves__> mandark, ahhh, I was going to say.  the issues with the Intel chips are WELL knoewn with Toshiba.
[02:19] <mharris_> does the compiz settings manager come with hardy?

[02:19] <Blaqlight> !language ! Sorcererbob
[02:19] <WatchDragon> is it "soo-do" "soo-dough"... how would you say it
[02:19] <mharris_> do you know the package name to install?
[02:19] <Jeah> glitsj16: Ok, thanks a lot!
[02:20] <WatchDragon> so-do
[02:20] <glitsj16> Jeah: yw
[02:20] <Odd-rationale> mharris_: compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:20] <azexian> jeeves__: beryl merged with compiz, you can now enable that really easy, no more compiles or probs, just go sys -- pref -- appearance then the last tab has the option to go to extra, then it is enabled, then go get: apt-get install compiz-settings-manager from there you can fine tune it, the rain is nice :d

[02:21] <azexian> mharris_: providing you've got the driver installed for nvidia
[02:21] <soul_786> mharris_: It will run very well

[02:23] <ubuntu_> i can't connect to msn!!!!!
[02:23] <azexian> yeah I noticed that, hehe, msn down, linux up, what does that remind you of?
[02:23] <mattchew> oh noes!!!!!
[02:24] <mharris_> harpreet: not that much
[02:24] <glitsj16> soul_786: look at http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/ for all things install related on ubuntu, should give you some clues
[02:24] <rafaelscj> AMDpenguin, I use jfs
[02:24] <soul_786> harpreet: untar with the command line is easiest i presume? whats the command?
[02:24] <Blaqlight> azexian: a typical day at microsoft?
[02:24] <mharris_> just a couple windows open switching desktops etc
[02:24] <AMDpenguin> is it fast?
[02:24] <soul_786> Alright thanks glitsj16
[02:24] <ubuntu_> microsoft sc
[02:24] <ubuntu_> sucks!
[02:24] <ubuntu_> jajajaja!
[02:24] <FloodBot1> ubuntu_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:24] <mandark> FloodBot1, forgive me oh gracious,,, it was a mistake.. do not punish me
[02:24] <mattchew> soul_786: type "man tar"
[02:24] <mattchew> and read
[02:24] <rafaelscj> AMDpenguin, workbench says jfs is faster then ext3
[02:25] <AMDpenguin> Yay
[02:25] <harpreet> soul_786: use Ark
[02:25] <jeeves__> azexian, ahhh, ok, we're back
[02:25] <azexian> Blaqlight: dead on :d
[02:25] <jeeves__> azexian, I give it 10 mins before it locks up
[02:25] <AMDpenguin> I will reformat my muderfs partition to jfs tomorrow
[02:25] <mharris_> this is bad
[02:25] <Blaqlight> mandark: trying to convince a bot that your sorry is akin to asking the wall for forgiveness because you kicked a hole in it.
[02:26] <harpreet> soul zxv tar ..file..
[02:26] <azexian> jeeves__: ok, just mentioning it here, will get osmeone to type in !envy, but I'll go for it, try envy, it downloads the nvidia driver and does it for you. what do you mean by lockups? do you mean it freezes?
[02:26] <harpreet> soul_786: zxv tar ..file..
[02:26] <FAJALOU> has anyone had issues with the newest kernel release in the repoes?  i installed it, and when i tried to boot to it it would not work at all!
[02:26] <Yoshi1> how do you get something like gkrellm to play a sound file as an alaert?
[02:26] <mandark> Blaqlight, hmmm ppl do make mist somtimes, its human nature 2 understand,  nd it non human 2 those who dont
[02:26] <unop> AMDpenguin, also.  http://lkml.org/lkml/2002/3/27/58
[02:27] <name_name> yo
[02:27] <glitsj16> media frenzy causes reiserfs to really get a bad rep, it's actually a very sound file system ..
[02:27] <the|navigator> Is 1.06 (The version that comes on the Ubuntu LiveCD) the latest version of transmission that ubuntu provides?  The latest release by Transmission is 1.22 and I'm surprised in all that time nobody has updated the ubuntu one?
[02:27] <MrBucket> Hello!
[02:27] <jeeves__> azexian, yes, the system witll just freeze.  next on my hit list is to find out why firefox keeps crashing and locking up, why evoulition crashes, and why the system will be accessing the disk for hours on end and bringing the system to a crawl
[02:27] <AMDpenguin> yeah so jfs is more fast than ext3
[02:28] <Blaqlight> jeeves__: I had that problem last week
[02:28] <Blaqlight> jeeves__: open a terminal window and type ps ax and check to see how many firefox processes there are.
[02:28] <jeeves__> Blaqlight, what one?  the disk access?
[02:28] <Yoshi1> i personally would like to know why npviewer keeps glitching
[02:28] <azexian> jeeves__: that sounds bad, how is the heat in the machine? all of that sounds like a heat issue, and the fact that it happens when you enable the drivers, but only AFTER 10 mins, makes me think the graphics card simply overheats, next time it locks up, quickly reset, go into bios, and check your temperatures
[02:28] <jeeves__> Blaqlight, none are running right now
[02:29] <unop> AMDpenguin, faster* yes but not on all things - unless you are running something critical like a High-Availability database server or webservice, you won't feel the difference
[02:29] <name_name> hey anyone know a way that to login from the terminal on a boot up other then misabling gdm and using startx?
[02:29] <FAJALOU> name_name: ctrl alt F1
[02:29] <Blaqlight> yeah disk access and firefox.
[02:29] <AMDpenguin> for normal use i will
[02:29] <unop> name_name, disable the GDM service
[02:30] <mattchew> name_name: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-November/057420.html
[02:30] <Blaqlight> turns out I had 4 firefox processes running in the background lol
[02:30] <unop> name_name,  sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[02:31] <name_name> if I remove gdm shit hits the fan
[02:31] <Milos> Guys, does anyone know how to capture a screen to a JPG or something with xvfb?
[02:31] <unop> name_name, language
[02:31] <name_name> sorry
[02:31] <jeeves__> azexian, naaa, I know this system is running insanely hot.  And I can't figure out how to fix it.  right now, my Video card is @ 145F, my CPU is @
[02:31] <name_name> can it boot to the terminal login and the automatically do startx when a person logs in?
[02:32] <azexian> jeeves__: I find a lot of issues are down to heat, I suggest you get a fan in there soon, that would explain almost all of your problems
[02:32] <FAJALOU> Help please my kernel is messed up!  i just installed the new kernel, and that kernel will not work at all!  I tried reinstalling it, to no avail!.
[02:32] <skarface> name_name: yes
[02:32] <jeeves__> azexian, ok, now with this video driver, I'm getting white highlights over menu options, and the system just froze
[02:32] <mattchew> name_name: look at the link I sent you
[02:32] <name_name> k
[02:32] <jeeves__> azexian, well, under windows I don't have a problem!
[02:32] <unop> mattchew, your link does not address his requirements ..
[02:32] <azexian> jeeves__: you don't get crashes? strange behavouir?
[02:33] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: the 2.6.24-20 ? that has known critical issues on launchpad ..
[02:33] <mattchew> it doesnt?
[02:33] <name_name> unop is right, sorry I don't mean to be picky
[02:33] <tmajibon> I just encounter a problem that I can even figure out how to search for reliably... for some reason, my computer is using all my swap space and barely touching my actual ram?
[02:33] <unop> name_name, you can .. you will need to have startx run from with ~/.bash_profile
[02:33] <FAJALOU> glitsj16:  then why was it released into the repos?!  b/c it will not get past the "starting up" script for me.
[02:33] <tmajibon> err, encountered and can't...
[02:33]  * tmajibon doesn't like when he fails at english.
[02:33] <jeeves__> azexian, yes, as I said, I'm getting whiteouts over menu options, ocassional freezing, or studdering when moving the mouse, etc.  but when I disable the restricted driver, everything works fine (as far as the graphics go)
[02:34] <Milos> --> Does anyone know how to capture a screen to a JPG or something with xvfb?
[02:34] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: actually it is in proposed, so you can expect glitches if you have that enabled :)
[02:34] <FAJALOU> grar, well turning that off then!
[02:34] <azexian> jeeves__: ah I see, ok then
[02:34] <name_name> Milos: change the save name to filename.jpg
[02:34] <name_name> it will fool you
[02:34] <jeeves__> azexian, it would be nice to be using the 3d drivers though
[02:34] <echosystm> guys, i have a very hard question for you - how do you change the samplerate for sound in ubuntu? it is locked at 48000hz. in prior versions of ubuntu, you could edit the asound config, but 8.04 doesn't seem to have that?
[02:34] <name_name> but it's still a png
[02:34] <Milos> name_name: ?
[02:34] <Blaqlight> glitsj16: its why I turned off the proposed repository... to many problems
[02:35] <unop> name_name, this is what i have in my ~/.bash_profile to startx automatically
[02:35] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: for now there's still no fix
[02:35] <FAJALOU> glitsj16: i have another question, in software sources i am not able to click important security updates, is there a way i can check it anyhoo?
[02:35] <name_name> milos: screenshots
[02:35] <glitsj16> Blaqlight: wise decision yes
[02:35] <unop> name_name, http://pastebin.com/m94c227f
[02:35] <FAJALOU> and where is proposed?
[02:35] <name_name> unop, thanks!
[02:35] <Milos> name_name: I don't know what you mean, I'm not a pro at linux, this is the first time I've used xvfb.
[02:35] <azexian> jeeves__: try envy, see if you get the same results, and make sure when changing between nvidias own, and the ubuntu ones to remove the other, e.g sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-glx envy does this for you, so you should be ok using it
[02:35] <tmajibon> echosystm, I'm not sure, but I know it's probably because 8.04 doesn't use alsa anymore
[02:35] <Supremus> uit
[02:36] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: you can try via synaptic .. settings > repositories > updates
[02:36] <Lamerion> hello all, i've been trying to install php with libcurl, however halfway it prompts that i do not have libxml2 installed, however when i searched for libxml2 in the package manager, it shows up!
[02:36] <Blaqlight> tmajibon: actually to the contrary..
[02:36] <echosystm> 8.04 still uses alsa, it just has this "pulse audio" thing prior to it
[02:36] <tmajibon> ah
[02:36] <FAJALOU> glitsj16:  when i try to click on the security ones in the software sources, it doesn't work...
[02:36] <echosystm> its for mixing different apps
[02:36] <CaptainMorgan> how can I setup a security protocol whereby if a remote user fails to correctly login with just three attempts, their IP is flagged and blocked from further attempts at a rate that I can set... say five days?
[02:36] <zaapiel> lol
[02:36] <name_name> milos: in the applications --> accessories --> take screenshot
[02:37] <tmajibon> fair enough, I'm not extremely good with linux yet... I'm still using 7.10 because I couldn't get the sound fixed on my laptop in 8.04
[02:37] <Milos> name_name: I'm using Ubuntu Server :)
[02:37] <name_name> lol
[02:37] <name_name> printscreen?
[02:37] <Milos> ?
[02:37] <Milos> ...
[02:37]  * zaapiel pets name_name
[02:37] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: could be they are missing in your /etc/apt/sources.list ..
[02:37] <soul_786> Anyone running ubuntu on an Asus EEE Pc by any chance?
[02:37]  * name_name purrss
[02:37] <FAJALOU> glitsj16:  when i click on it in there, all it does is pretend click, and then no check :|
[02:37] <zaapiel> :D
[02:37] <FAJALOU> glitsj16:  then how to fix...
[02:37] <Blaqlight> name_name: bites. better watch it :P
[02:38] <scabflakes> i can't seem to get my screen to stop dimming when i plug it in
[02:38] <Elijah> i just installed a nvidia driver, how do i uninstall it, i used envy, it took away my 1920 x 1200 resolution and only gives me 800x600 now
[02:38] <name_name> milos: it's a key about the insert key
[02:38] <name_name> *avoe
[02:38] <name_name> *above
[02:38] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: check that file with an editor and uncomment the sources entress if they are commented out
[02:38] <Blaqlight> scabflakes: check your powermanagement settings.
[02:38] <scabflakes> i did
[02:38] <scabflakes> still nothing
[02:38] <Lamerion> hello all, i've been trying to install php with libcurl, however when i ./configured it halfway it prompts that i do not have libxml2 installed, however when i searched for libxml2 in the package manager, it shows up!
[02:39] <Milos> name_name: Lol.
[02:39] <Blaqlight> uncheck the box named dim display when idle.
[02:39] <scabflakes> Elijah: you should be able to do that under hardware drivers
[02:39] <name_name> Elijah: if you disable it then it goes away
[02:39] <tmajibon> right now, I'm trying to figure out why my laptop would be using swap when it has more than enough ram available?
[02:39] <scabflakes> it was already unchecked
[02:39] <Sylphid> Lamerion, have you tried purging the package?
[02:39] <name_name> Elijah: system --> admin --> hardware drivers
[02:40] <unop> Milos, which display does xvfb run on?
[02:40] <edz> can someone help me get to console
[02:40] <Elijah> name_name, it says no proprietary drivers are installed on this system
[02:40] <edz> i try cntrl alt f1
[02:40] <edz> it wont work
[02:40] <scabflakes> it's weird, when my laptop is unplugged it is at full brightness, when i plug it in, it dims
[02:40] <FAJALOU> glitsj16: what ones EXACTLY am i looking for... i don't see anything commented out that shouldn't be, and  what is this:  http://ppa.launchpad.net/flam3/ubuntu hardy main?
[02:40] <scabflakes> it's completely backwards
[02:40] <Milos> unop, I have no idea?! I'm running Ubuntu Server >_> ?
[02:40] <boonkerz> hello anyone knows an faktura programm?
[02:40] <name_name> scabflake: lol you just said that
[02:40] <boonkerz> which is free
[02:40] <Lamerion> urm Sylphid.. nope..
[02:40] <unop> Milos, ok then, how did you launch xvfb?
[02:40] <zaapiel> what mp3 player(software not hardware) you recommend?
[02:40] <legend2440> Lamerion: is     libxml2-dev installed?
[02:40] <zaapiel> audacious lags out on me
[02:41] <Milos> unop: xvfb-run -a -e error.log firefox
[02:41] <scabflakes> name_name: :-P
[02:41] <Elijah> oh wait, envy has a uninstall package
[02:41] <Sylphid> Lamerion, sudo apt-get purge {package}
[02:41] <Lamerion> libxml2-dev not installed
[02:41] <edz> is there another way to get into console... i cannot get into console just by pressing cntrl-alt-f1
[02:41] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: i don't know, no bell sringing with that ppa sorry .. as for the sources issue, could you paste your sources.list somewhere ?
[02:42] <name_name> Elijah: if it says nothing there then there's nothing installed from nvidia
[02:42] <FAJALOU> glitsj16:  yes.
[02:42] <Lamerion> ah i'll give it a try
[02:42] <unop> Milos,  try this.  ps ef | grep firefox-bin | grep --colour=always DISPLAY
[02:42] <wbmj> edz: ctrl-alt-f2
[02:42] <FAJALOU> glitsj16: http://paste.ubuntu.com/30157/
[02:42] <edz> wbmj: wont work
[02:42] <Lamerion> Sylphid: i tried installing libxml2-dev.. now it works.. thanks!
[02:42] <edz> duno whats the problem
[02:42] <edz> it use to work
[02:42] <bobertdos> edz: Applications->Accessories->Terminal
[02:43] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: checking, give me a minute
[02:43] <edz> i need to shutdown gdm
[02:43] <zaapiel> grrr
[02:43] <Elijah> name_name, well it installed something that gave me graphics probs, i am rebooting now
[02:43] <Milos> unop, cool, that worked - what did it do and what can I do with that now?
[02:43] <YouKnowMeDontLie> Does anyone in ubuntu MID works on tablet pc?
[02:43] <zaapiel> audacious work for you guys?
[02:43] <mharris_> hey is there a site listing stuff to install after installing hardy?
[02:43] <mharris_> codecs, flash, etc
[02:43] <FAJALOU> glitsj16:  kk
[02:43] <name_name> Elijah: =D
[02:43] <rockenrola> zaapiel: yes
[02:43] <unop> Milos, what display are you running?  you should see DISPLAY highlighted there
[02:43] <btfx_> Hey guys, I gust installed ircd-hybrid, and can connect to it via <IP_ADDRESS> but not via 192.168.x.x (LAN IP), any idea why not?
[02:43] <BCM43> anybody know a good open source irc? bersirc sucks
[02:43] <YouKnowMeDontLie> pidgin
[02:43] <Slyboots> irssi
[02:43] <FAJALOU> BCM43: miranda, and pidgin
[02:43] <BCM43> thanks
[02:43] <Odd-rationale> BCM43: xchat
[02:43] <name_name> BCM43: I use konversation
[02:44] <name_name> or pjirc (runs on java) in browser
[02:44] <Milos> unop, I'm quite new to this display thing so, sorry I'm not sure what you mean :P
[02:44] <FAJALOU> !poll | BCM43
[02:44] <soul_786> I use xchat without a problem | BMC43
[02:44] <Elijah> name_name, yeah still having problems now
[02:44] <bobertdos> mharris_: There's no particular site. It all depends on what you want. What sorts of things are you wanting to install.
[02:44] <name_name> there is also chatzilla for firefox
[02:44] <unop> Milos, do you see anything highlighted in that output?
[02:44] <regeya> tmajibon: I wouldn't worry overly much about it.  I forget the reason, but it seems like it doesn't matter how much ram you have, you'll use swap if it's available.  has something to do with the way memory management works, but I don't remember what
[02:44] <Sylphid> btfx_, are you running any firewall rules?
[02:44] <BCM43> FAJALOU: i did not ask for the best, just one
[02:44] <name_name> Elijah: =D
[02:44] <Elijah> how do i upgrade my nvidia 8800 driver without envy?
[02:44] <Milos> unop, it didn't return anything
[02:44] <Voxicles> Would anybody wh has dual monitors on ati, or knows the process well, take a look at this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/30158/
[02:44] <Elijah> i am using vmware fusion
[02:44] <btfx_> Slyboots: does ubuntu do that by default?
[02:44] <btfx_> oops
[02:45] <mharris_> bobertdos: flash, codecs, etc
[02:45] <name_name> Elijah: stop envying it
[02:45] <name_name> lol
[02:45] <FAJALOU> BCM43:  i believe that what it has to say is good, there is no best, just a reminder :)  it's all about experementation.
[02:45] <btfx_> does ubuntu do that by default Sylphid?
[02:45] <tmajibon> regeya, the problem is, my system is lagging and crashing because of it when I do some memory heavy stuff, even though I have enough memory to put all of it there
[02:45] <FAJALOU> tmajibon: do you have swap space?
[02:45] <jrolson> I'm wondering if anyone could help me with installing ubuntu on a laptop?
[02:45] <legend2440> Voxicles: use   sudo aticonfig
[02:45] <tmajibon> yes
[02:45] <Sylphid> btfx_, sudo iptables -L will show the firewall rules
[02:45] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: looks okay .. and in software sources, first tab labeled 'Ubuntu Software' you can't activate the 'source code' entree ?
[02:45] <Odd-rationale> !install | jrolson
[02:45] <bobertdos> !medibuntu | mharris_
[02:45] <Elijah> Sylphid, you had a suggestion earlier for installing graphics drivers, right
[02:45] <regeya> tmajibon: if your system is crashing when you do memory-intensive stuff, I'd worry less about swap and more about your memory.
[02:45] <btfx_> Sylphid: Thx
[02:45] <vanberge> anybody use banshee with last.fm ??
[02:46] <FAJALOU> glitsj16:  correct, it is set to a negative button
[02:46] <Sylphid> Elijah, yes, you want to install the nvidia-glx-new package
[02:46] <regeya> ungh.   How might I bring it back into view?
[02:46] <name_name> hodfdfsdfsdfds
[02:46] <name_name> ops
[02:46] <jrolson> I'm buying a gateway model M1624 and wondering if anyone has installed ubuntu on there yet??
[02:46] <Luke_> I'm gettin gthis error after the new kernel update: Failure registering capabilities with primary security module.
[02:46] <unop> Milos,  well i'll guess xvfb is running on the first display. try this.  import -window root -display servername:0 screenshot.jpeg
[02:46] <Sylphid> Elijah, nvidia-settings is another that i would recommend
[02:46] <Luke_> anyone know waht that is?
[02:46] <tmajibon> ftr, I've got 1.4 gb of ram available, and 1gb of swap space. when I ran the program, it was using the full swap space, but only about 300 mb of ram
[02:46] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: can't explain that, but perhaps try and change that by running it under sudo ..
[02:46] <FAJALOU> wait glitsj16 i stand corrected i can turn on sources now...
[02:46] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, looks like I might have to get that -rt kernel.
[02:47] <vanberge> MrBucket, try alt - tab
[02:47] <glitsj16> FAJALOU: okay, no problem
[02:47] <Milos> unop, what does "Error: no display specified" mean? It happened while trying to execute "firefox -install-global-extension "pagesaverbasic-1.7.1.xpi"
[02:47] <Milos> "
[02:47] <regeya> I used to have flawless burns, the only time I would have a coaster is if the power went out.  not so in the wodim-enlightened age
[02:47] <unop> Milos, where servername is the hostname as per $HOSTNAME
[02:47] <FAJALOU> glitsj16:  so now i can click sources, but still no security.
[02:47] <AMDpenguin> is there a way to download podcasts?
[02:47] <Milos> unop, Ok I'll try that
[02:47] <MrBucket> vanberge: Thx.. I tried that.
[02:47] <unop> Milos, it means firefox isn't able to launch because you aren't launching it under xvfb
[02:47] <btfx_> Sylphid: Looks empty to me, I never messed with iptables and assumed that no firewall stuff was on by default
[02:48] <glitsj16> xTheGoat121x: well it's not a bad thing, just make sure you don't install the 2.6.24-20-rt from proposed, that's not working
[02:48] <name_name> I have a partition /media/disk that I need to mount as soon as I boot up or login
[02:48] <Yanik> hi, could anyone help me making my 2nd network port works ?
[02:48] <name_name> plz halp
[02:48] <bobertdos> mharris_: You'll want medibuntu for w32codecs and libdvdcss2. You'll want the xine libraries and totem-xine, plus the DVDRead and dvdnav libraries for just about everything else. I recommend the beta of flash 10, because 9 has PulseAudio issues that make it rather incompatible with Hardy.
[02:48] <Milos> unop: -bash: import: command not found
[02:48] <AMDpenguin> !ext4
[02:48] <CyberCod> name_name: you need to put it in /etc/fstab
[02:48] <kok0> how do i edit 'Bookmarks' on folders?
[02:48] <tmajibon> the problem isn't that it's not using swap, it's that it's using it when it doesn't have to at the expense of stability
[02:48] <regeya> AMDpenguin: if you're listening to podcasts on your computer now, you're downloading podcasts...that's kinda the point of the things, you subscribe to a feed, your client downloads the necessary file :-)
[02:49] <name_name> CyberCod: what do I do edit in that file?
[02:49] <l3d> hI have a sony vaio and  everything worked out great during install but after a reboot after the updates it wont boot passed the starting up screen something to do with apci error and i cant get passed it  is there a way to fix it?
[02:49] <AMDpenguin> from the itunes store?
[02:49] <vanberge> MrBucket, do you need the app to run?  or do you want to restart it?  you could open a terminal and type "pkill appname"
[02:49] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, thanks for the warning.  I discovered that if I turn off realtime in daemon.conf... it returns to choppy sound, without the hiccup.
[02:49] <unop> Milos, hmm, no imagemagick installed.  does this give you anything?  which xwd
[02:49] <vanberge> MrBucket, "pkill firefox" for example
[02:49] <vanberge> then you could just restart the app
[02:49] <CyberCod> name_name: sudo gedit /etc/fstab  but first I'd look in /etc/mtab to see how it is currently mounted (it is currently mounted, right)
[02:49] <Blaqlight> son of a....
[02:49] <Milos> unop, doesn't return anything
[02:50] <Milos> unop, should I install imagick?
[02:50] <CyberCod> name_name: ?
[02:50] <vanberge> so; nobody currently in this ubuntu channel uses banshee as their media player with the last.fm plugin ?
[02:50] <Sylphid> btfx_, look in /etc/ircd-hybrid/ircd.conf ... what is in the listen{}
[02:50] <Milos> unop, imagemagick *
[02:50] <MrWGW> what text file is your IP config info stored in?
[02:50] <btfx_> Sylphid: lemme look
[02:50] <marco> is banshee good?
[02:50] <MrWGW> in Ubuntu, I mean, where are the interface configs etc k pet?
[02:50] <unop> Milos, yea
[02:50] <MrWGW> in particular anything relating to the default gw
[02:50] <Yanik> MrWGW: /etc/network/interfaces
[02:50] <vanberge> marco, banshee is very good imo
[02:50] <CyberCod> anyone know how to deal with the audacity/pulseaudio problem?
[02:50] <Voxicles> Thanks Legend, working perfectly now
[02:51] <MrWGW> ty
[02:51] <unop> Milos, to run firefox there. you might need something like this.  DISPLAY=:0.0  firefox -blah ...
[02:51] <Milos> unop, I read online that you put :1
[02:51] <Milos> unop, http://hopit.org/nf2w
[02:51] <marco> i'm getting pissed running rhythmbox, thanks I'll try it
[02:51] <CyberCod> Milos: it depends on whatever the current display is
[02:51] <unop> Milos, then to grab a screenshot afterwards.   import -window root -colors 16 +dither -display :0.0 myfile01.pcx
[02:52] <rampage73> HELP
[02:52] <MrWGW> if the default gateway is set correctly, the IP address is correct, the subnet mask is correct, and of course the DNS stuff is correct
[02:52] <legend2440> Voxicles: did you get resolutions figured out?
[02:52] <thinman1189> I installed wow through wine on my 8.04 laptop and when I go to use the updater it goes to 99% download and doesn't go further.
[02:52] <unop> Milos, well, perhaps -- i am not sure which display you are running xvfb in - try both
[02:52] <LanetLi> ?
[02:52] <name_name> CyberCod: I got mtab and fstab open
[02:52] <MrWGW> can you think of any reason why a box couldn't ping anything other than its NIC was faulty and/or the network was screwed uP?
[02:52] <xTheGoat121x> glitsj16, so any interesting problems goin in here?
[02:52] <Milos> unop, Ok well ImageMagick is installed now.
[02:52] <rampage73> is there an easy way to send mail on the command line ?
[02:52] <name_name> with sudo gedit
[02:52] <Elijah> Sylphid, how do i install that  nvidia-glx-new package
[02:52] <tmajibon> I'm guessing the otherwise lack of response means that nobody else has a guess at why it wouldn't allocate memory properly?
[02:52] <unop> Milos, actually since you wanted a jpeg.   import -window root -colors 16 +dither -display :0.0 screenshot.jpeg
[02:52] <marco> I think I need to download a new iso of hardy heron and re-install however
[02:52] <MrBucket> vanberge: It is producing data that is not being logged.
[02:52] <Yanik> MrWGW: good question, i have the same problem atm configuring my 2nd network port
[02:52] <Sylphid> Elijah, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[02:52] <Yanik> could anyone help me making my 2nd network port works ?
[02:52] <CyberCod> name_name: is the partition/drive you want automounted currently mounted?
[02:53] <unop> Milos, ok, launch firefox
[02:53] <vanberge> MrBucket, can you just kill it and restart it ?
[02:53] <rampage73> I used to use mail -s subject<EMAIL_ADDRESS>but now it says it won;t do it
[02:53] <Godspell> hey ?
[02:53] <unop> krazy-h, no pms without asking please
[02:53] <name_name> cybercod: /dev/sda1 /media/disk fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0
[02:53] <unop> !pm > krazy-h
[02:53] <krazy-h> OK
[02:53] <rampage73> cannot send mail to remote domains is the error message I get
[02:53] <Blaqlight> tmajibon: we have a factoid for just that purpose, wanna see it?
[02:53] <Milos> unop: import: unable to open X server `:0.0'.
[02:53] <yoyoned> MrWGW: could be routing problem, ate you doing anything weird
[02:53] <krazy-h> :D
[02:53] <MrBucket> I could.. but I would prefer to see the application and save the current data.
[02:53] <name_name> CyberCod: that's a yes
[02:53] <unop> Milos, try :1 then
[02:53] <btfx_> Sylphid: Thanks I found the bugger
[02:53] <axisys> in solaris i can add a virtual interface like this ifconfig eth0:1 plumb
[02:53] <tmajibon> Blaqlight, huh?
[02:53] <axisys> how do I do it in linux?
[02:53] <CyberCod> name_name: ok, copy that line (the entire line) to the fstab file save and close both... don't mess with the mtab file and don't save it
[02:54] <Milos> unop: import: unable to open X server `:1'.
[02:54] <Milos>  :(
[02:54] <axisys> how do I run solaris like command ifconfig eth0:1 plumb in linux ?
[02:54] <vanberge> MrBucket, if you cant see it and alt-tab doesn't bring it back; i think it's safe to say your app or desktop manager has faulted
[02:54] <Elijah> Sylphid, ok i did that, now when i run nvidia settings it says i do not appear to be running x driver, please edit x config file and restart x server
[02:54] <vanberge> MrBucket, i dont knwo what else you could try unfortunately.
[02:54] <Milos> unop, I don't think I have a display running?
[02:54] <unop> Milos, how did you launch xvfb again?
[02:54] <Elijah> Sylphid,  how do i restart x server
[02:54] <name_name> CyberCod: should I aline the tabs in fstab?
[02:54] <Milos> unop, I closed it :P
[02:54] <YouKnowMeDontLie> is anyone here good at using pdftk?
[02:54] <CyberCod> name_name: then reboot and see if it worked, and come back and let me know how it went
[02:54] <azexian> I have a i586 cpu, and am currently running a i686 kernel, I think that might be a problem, but I can't see a i586 kernel for my distro, am I better off sticking with i686, or going i386?
[02:54] <unop> Milos, sheesh :)
[02:54] <MrBucket> k
[02:55] <eugen> hey can somebody help me fix my sound problem?
[02:55] <yoyoned> azexian: i386
[02:55] <eugen> my card is detected..it just doesn't work
[02:55] <MrWGW> yoyoned: I'm not responsible for the router or the server
[02:55] <krazy-h> Some problems ?
[02:55] <unop> Milos, launch it like this.  Xvfb :1 -screen 0  ....
[02:55] <LSD|Ninja> azexian: you can't run -march=686 code on a 586
[02:55] <jga23> anybody know a reason why nautilus work work connecting to smb but smbmount won't?
[02:55] <MrWGW> I'm attempting to verify if an Ubuntu box's downtime is due to a network problem or a problem on the box
[02:55] <Sylphid> Elijah, ctrl + alt + backspace
[02:55] <rampage73> I need an easy email solution to put into a batch script, anyone?
[02:55] <unop> Milos, that sets it to run on :1.0
[02:55] <MrWGW> and it looks to mlike the box is configured properly
[02:55] <azexian> LSD|Ninja: but you can run i386 code on 586?
[02:55] <MrWGW> if there is a routing problem its something screwed up on a Cisco 6500
[02:55] <MrWGW> on aVLAN config most likely
[02:55] <MrWGW> fun stuff, fortunately, not my concern
[02:55] <Milos> unop, I can't do anything while it's running
[02:55] <unop> Milos, why not?
[02:55] <Milos> unop, it hoggs the SSH window
[02:56] <LSD|Ninja> azexian: yes, even if it has -mtune=686
[02:56] <Milos> unop, I have tlr CTRL+C it
[02:56] <unop> Milos, send it to the background then
[02:56] <Milos> to *
[02:56] <Milos> unop, how?!
[02:56] <bobertdos> axisys: If plumb isn't available, the equivalent is create
[02:56] <azexian> LSD|Ninja: thanks
[02:56] <unop> Milos, xvfb -blah .. &
[02:56] <tmajibon> Blaqlight, what factoid?
[02:56] <Elijah> Sylphid, thanks, i restarted x server and same message
[02:56] <eugen> I would appreciate it if somebody would help me get my sound to work...
[02:56] <CyberCod> eugen: you're not getting any sound at all?
[02:56] <Sylphid> Elijah, what message>?
[02:56] <Blaqlight> tmajibon: nevermind. sorry
[02:56] <Milos> unop, I start it like this: xvfb-run -a -e error.log firefox
[02:57] <axisys> bobertdos: i dont see plumb
[02:57] <Milos> unop, should I start it differently?
[02:57] <axisys> bobertdos: let me try create
[02:57] <m13> hi
[02:57] <unop> Milos, i guess you ought to do this. xvfb-run :1 -a -e error.log firefox &
[02:57] <r0oter> does anybody knows why apache is not logging my access_logs? just error_logs
[02:57] <Elijah> Sylphid,  "you do not appear to be running x driver, please edit x config file and restart x server"
[02:57] <axisys> bobertdos: ifconfig eth0:1 create did not work
[02:57] <Milos> unop: it returns [1] 25979
[02:57] <r0oter> any clues what could be the problem?
[02:57] <tmajibon> annoyingly, I can't think of a phrase to search for on google with this that won't pull of several million 'no swap file' or 'not enough ram' questions
[02:57] <axisys> i am running as root
[02:58] <unop> Milos, cool, that means it was sent into the background
[02:58] <Milos> unop, YAY!
[02:58] <unop> Milos, now try the import command
[02:58] <r0oter> both of them got the same permissions
[02:58] <name_name> Y__Y
[02:58] <CyberCod> name_name: working?
[02:58] <r0oter> both of them are loading the log module
[02:58] <name_name> CyberCod: it say I'm not privelegded to mount it
[02:58]  * xTheGoat121x gives up.
[02:59] <Sylphid> Elijah, try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:59] <Sylphid> Elijah, sry sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:59] <joe__> server irc.epiknet.org
[02:59] <CyberCod> name_name: did you just try browsing to it?
[02:59] <name_name> yeah
[02:59] <CyberCod> name_name: you may have to change the permissions of it
[02:59] <MrWGW> so would there be an aesy way, on a box with zero connectivity, to verify if the ethernet card works?
[02:59] <MrWGW> where easy == command line
[02:59] <MrWGW> some /dev file to read, some test program to run, something like that
[03:00] <Elijah> Sylphid, now it says "use kernel framebuffer device interface"
[03:00] <DysfunXionaL> i installed a Nvidia 6600GT 512 PCI-e card before installing 8.04, i've got envyng, downloaded nvidia-glx-new still not working right. Does a guy have to disable the onboard video??
[03:00] <unop> MrWGW, assign an ip address to the card and ping it :)
[03:00] <name_name> see I got a launcher on the desktop to the mount point, and it wasn't working after a boot up unless I went to places --> disk
[03:00] <name_name> then it was mounted
[03:00] <name_name> and the link worked
[03:00] <MrWGW> the box has no connectivity
[03:00] <Milos> unop, this is very annoying, as soon as I start it, it says what display it's on, right, and as soon as I type something it says: /usr/bin/xvfb-run: 173: :1: not found
[03:00] <unop> MrWGW, that's how you test a card out
[03:00] <Luke_> I'm gettin gthis error after the new kernel update: Failure registering capabilities with primary security module.
[03:00] <MrWGW> if the box can ping itself, does that mean the NIC works?
[03:00] <MrWGW> because it can
[03:00] <Elijah> DysfunXionaL, i am having same issue with 8800gt
[03:00] <unop> MrWGW, yes
[03:00] <MrWGW> ok superb
[03:01] <MrWGW> thus, it looks to me like there actually is a network problem
[03:01] <vanberge> anyone using banshee 1.0 ??
[03:01] <YouKnowMeDontLie> join
[03:01] <bobertdos> axisys: Hmm, try it without a colon and designation. Also, are you using super user privileges?
[03:01] <MrWGW> the routing must be screwed up, because everything on this box checks out in terms of configurations et cetera
[03:01] <DysfunXionaL> Elijah: glad to join you
[03:01] <unop> Milos, what command did you use there?
[03:01] <Intrepid> in soviet russia, network configures you
[03:01] <LSD|Ninja> MrWGW: The transport layer stuff might still be screwed, no way to really test that without connecting it to something though
[03:01] <CyberCod> name_name: ok, and now there's no icon on the desktop at all?
[03:02] <Zoidfarb> Hey, so I have like 3 avi files that I want to burn to a DVD that'll play in a normal DVD player (for my parents), what's a good app for doing that?
[03:02] <Milos> xvfb-run :1 -a -e error.log firefox & - and then - import -window root -colors 16 +dither -display :1 screenshot.jpeg
[03:02] <Milos> @unup
[03:02] <axisys> bobertdos: yes super user
[03:02] <Milos> @unop *
[03:02] <unop> Milos, ok .. take the :1 out
[03:02] <Blaqlight> unop: it seems idesk is broken too, it doesn't display a menu or anything, no way of controlling it.
[03:02] <MrWGW> what's the Ubuntu equivalent to "service network restart' ?
[03:02] <Sylphid> Elijah, is it asking you to select one?
[03:02] <Milos> unop, there's a :1 in both commands
[03:03] <unop> Blaqlight, welcome to the world of fluxbox - everything is done via editing files :)
[03:03] <unop> Milos, :1 in the xvfb-run command
[03:03] <axisys> bobertdos: ifconfig eth0-home create did not work
[03:03] <Elijah> Sylphid, yah, it went through a bunch of questions, i answered best i could
[03:03] <unop> Milos, keeping :1 in the import
[03:03] <Luke_> how do I downgrade the proposed kernel that is broken?
[03:03] <Blaqlight> unop: time to dust off nano.
[03:03] <name_name> Cybercod: no the icons still there, but that another story, don't worry about it
[03:03] <Yanik> MrWGW: /etc/init.d/networking restart
[03:03] <MrWGW> ok
[03:03] <name_name> I deleted the part of fstab I have edited
[03:03] <Milos> unop,
[03:03] <Milos> import: unable to open X server `:1'.
[03:04]  * MrWGW pines for the elegance of "service network restart'
[03:04] <MrWGW> alas
[03:04] <name_name> and saved and 'mount -a'
[03:04] <unop> Blaqlight, nano is frowned upon -- but yea .. :)
[03:04] <name_name> it works now
[03:04] <CyberCod> ok... if you reboot it will go back to the way it was
[03:04] <name_name> back to wut it was
[03:04] <Yanik> MrWGW you can also put up or down an interface like this: ifup eth0 ifdown eth0
[03:04] <MrWGW> yeah I know
[03:04] <unop> Milos, try :0
[03:04] <bobertdos> axisys: I can't seem to find the exact syntax, but create is what you want to use.
[03:04] <Blaqlight> unop: why it works... gedit is better?
[03:04] <Zoidfarb> Anyone, good app for creating/burning DVDs that'll play on a regular player? I'm looking for something like iDVD?
[03:04] <MrWGW> I want to restart the entire stack
[03:04] <CyberCod> name_name: but if you want it automounted, fstab is the way to go... I would just suggest you read a little bout that
[03:04] <Sylphid> Elijah, after answering them restart X
[03:04] <Elijah> Sylphid, it still says i don't appear to using a nvidia x driver in nvidia-settings
[03:04] <MrWGW> basically, I'd do a reboot if I could, but this IP KVM switch would disconnect
[03:04] <Milos> unop,
[03:04] <Milos> import: unable to open X server `:0'.
[03:04] <Milos> :A
[03:04] <Milos> :S *
[03:04] <FloodBot1> Milos: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:04] <unop> Blaqlight, vim or emacs ftw
[03:04] <Elijah> Sylphid, i restarted x
[03:04] <name_name> ok maybe copy pasting the mtab wasn't a good idea
[03:05] <unop> Blaqlight, that's just preferential tho .. nano works if it works for you :)
[03:05] <soul_786> Are there any differences between ubuntu and xubuntu in terms of things like the package manager and some of the gui based apps? besides xfce difference of course
[03:05] <Sylphid> Elijah, sudo less /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:05] <rockenrola> r0oter: do you have the Customlog command setup?
[03:05] <Blaqlight> emacs eh? I never thought to use it though... It didn't seem to do anything I wanted it too... perhaps its cause I hadn't used it enough?
[03:05] <unop> Milos, ok, i am not very aware of xvfb-run -- have a look in the manpage on how you can assign xvfb to a specific display
[03:06] <axisys> bobertdos: this is all I had to do ..wow
[03:06] <axisys> bobertdos: ifconfig eth0:0 <IP_ADDRESS> up
[03:06] <DysfunXionaL> # This file was generated by failsafeDexconf, using
[03:06] <mharris_> hey for a new laptop how do i train the battery?
[03:06] <DysfunXionaL> # values from the debconf database and some overrides to use vesa mode
[03:06] <DysfunXionaL>  You should use dexconf or another such tool for creating a "real" xorg.conf
[03:06] <mharris_> should i let it drain all the way, charge, drain, a few times?
[03:06] <Elijah> Sylphid, it gave me a xorg.conf file i beleive in terminal
[03:06] <unop> Blaqlight, vim and emacs are quite powerful -- but there is a steep learning-curve to get through to harness their potential
[03:06] <olskolirc> can someone tell me what happened to kde-window-decorator in the repository
[03:06] <CyberCod> name_name: what kind of file system is it?
[03:07] <unop> Blaqlight, but that's a task for another day - when you have time to kill
[03:07] <Sylphid> Elijah, look for a line that says nvidia in it ..... if its wrong it will say nv or vesa
[03:07] <olskolirc> am I spelling it wrong or got the wrong program name?  kde-window-decorator --replace&
[03:07] <Sylphid> Elijah, should be a device line
[03:07] <Blaqlight> unop: Ive noticed that when emacs has you do a lenghty tutorial to get you used to it, the learning curve is going to be quite steep heh
[03:08] <r0oter> rockenrola: do you mean  CustomLog "/opt/var/apache2/log/access_log" combined
[03:08] <bobertdos> axisys: Yeah, when you don't give it a specific name, it just assigns an arbirary designation.
[03:08] <unop> Blaqlight, yea, though i am not very aware of emacs -- it's the same with vim.
[03:08] <rampage73> ls
[03:08] <bobertdos> axisys: Debian believes in simplification :D
[03:08] <rockenrola> r0oter: yes.
[03:08] <DysfunXionaL> Sylphid, do i replace 'vesa' or 'nv' with something else??
[03:08] <Elijah> Sylphid, i dont see either
[03:08] <m13> test
[03:09] <rampage73> test received
[03:09] <r0oter> rockenrola: thats the one I have for access_log.The weird thing it was working hours ago
[03:09] <hagabaka> is anyone else's system not starting with the latest kernel update?
[03:09] <Blaqlight> emacs actually has a psychotherapist built-in. haha Im liking this already.
[03:09] <rockenrola> r0oter: if you access your server, that file doesn't change ?
[03:09] <r0oter> rockenrola: I kinda been testing apache restarting it couple times and then no more...
[03:10] <m13> thanks
[03:10] <Luke_> how do I downgrade the proposed kernel that is broken?
[03:10] <Sylphid> DysfunXionaL, it should say nvidia if you have installed nvidia-glx-new..... if not do that first
