[12:02] <Chapayev> I need to set up logitech qc comm. stx  (with 6.06)
[12:02] <Flannel> razzorz: ls -al /etc/apt, what are the perms on sources.list?
[12:03] <Blaza> ne one download naruto?
[12:03] <dcordes> is there any way to get rid of ubuntu? i prefer VLC for my video and don't need it anymore.
[12:03] <con-man> has anyone here had trouble getting kiba-dock to work with beryl? When I load it I get a black bar at the bottom and then my beryl cube spins incredibly fast non stop to the point where I have to restart X
[12:03] <dcordes> totem
[12:03] <dcordes> i mean
[12:03] <W4nnabe> is there any way that /etc/hosts could affect apache functionality
[12:03] <LjL> dcordes: it's part of ubuntu-desktop, so while you can remove it, it's probably best to just leave it there...
[12:03] <Blaza> can any one help me with downloading naruto (where can i find it)
[12:04] <Agrajag> Blaza: this is NOT the place to ask for that kind of thing.
[12:04] <razzorz> http://www.papernapkin.org/pastebin/view/5232
[12:04] <dcordes> LjL: evolution is also part of it (right?) and i removed it. apt-get says i had no totem installed after removing it but it's still there
[12:05] <jshadias> apt-get remove totem-gstreamer
[12:05] <LjL> dcordes: tried "dpkg --get-selections | grep totem"?
[12:05] <razzorz> Price: did you see that?
[12:05] <hendaus> somebody help me please!
[12:05] <LjL> razzorz: what are the errors? (and what is deb http://blognux.free.fr/debian unstable main  ?)
[12:05] <LjL> !helpme | hendaus
[12:05] <ubotu> hendaus: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:06] <Arrick> can anyone tell me how to enable the gui for the 6.06.1 LAMP web configuration?
[12:06] <Reuben> help please urgent question.....the updates added the restricted driver manager and updated the network manager...now my wifi isnt working
[12:06] <PriceChild> razzorz, and the error?
[12:06] <LjL> Arrick: GUI, what GUI? :)
[12:06] <dcordes> LjL: tells me something about totem-mozilla and stuff. can i also use vlc as mmozilla plugin?
[12:06] <razzorz> errors are:... one sec
[12:06] <LjL> dcordes: think so
[12:06] <PriceChild> razzorz, apart from you adding 3rd party repos, the sources.list seems fine. I'm guessing one of the mirrors is down.
[12:06] <con-man> does anyone here just get a black bar when they run kiba-dock?
[12:06] <hendaus> LjL,  thanx, how can i switch off the mo nitor after 20 minutes?
[12:06] <PriceChild> razzorz, but error will confirm

[12:07] <Arrick> LjL I looked on one of the servers the other day and I say the web config page, was pretty good, I was wondering how to enable
[12:07] <dcordes> thanks
[12:07] <LjL> hendaus: out of luck with me, i'm running KDE. but it should be somewhere under System / Preferences...
[12:07] <Flannel> razzorz: You'll probably want to comment out the CD from your repositories.  I don't imagine you use it at all, and it'll stop you from needing your CD in the drive.
[12:07] <dcordes> LjL: so how can i remove totem now?
[12:07] <Chapayev> Logitech stx webcam w/ 6.06 help! -= do i get spca5xx or LE or somethin else?

[12:07] <Arrick> jrib you around tonight?
[12:07] <LjL> dcordes: don't know, what is it exactly that it complains about?
[12:07] <Flannel> Arrick: That's a web based config thing, hardly a GUI.    I'm installing Ubuntu server on a new machine and have had a nightmate with LVM and partitions but installing is progressing - but it has go to LILO and it now says LILO install failed - what should I do ?
[12:08] <PriceChild> razzorz, hmm.... :S
[12:08] <Arrick> works off port 10000
[12:08] <hendaus> LjL,  so what can i do
[12:08] <razzorz> here is another one..
[12:08] <Flannel> Arrick: know ... of them.  I don't know which one you might be thinking of.
[12:08] <PriceChild> razzorz, I haven't seen this before, so I don't know the answer, but have you been messing with /etc/hosts or something?
[12:08] <pewbu> hey. i want to add universe/multiverse repositories for feisty fawn 7.04, but i can only find "HowTos" for dapper and egdy. (pretty new to ubuntu, 'xcuseme)
[12:09] <hendaus> LjL,  my monitor is hewlett packard pavilion D5258A
[12:09] <LjL> hendaus, heard me? i'm running KDE. i can't know where the DPMS settings are in GNOME. they're under the System menu. search.
[12:09] <Slart> Tatster: it installs lilo by default? I thought Grub was the flavour of the month?
[12:09] <PriceChild> !feisty > pewbu (see pm from ubotu)
[12:09] <pewbu> anyone care to lend a hend?
[12:09] <PriceChild> pewbu, btw feisty isn't released and new users shouldn't be using it ;)
[12:09] <Flannel> Arrick: Port 10000 is used by webmin I believe, which is no longer in Ubuntu
[12:09] <hendaus> LjL,  i also have kde kubuntu :)
[12:09] <LjL> razzorz uhm it would look like your APT is trying to fetch the lists from some local(?) cache instead of the actual repositories?!
[12:09] <Slart> pewbu: if I were new to linux/ubuntu I'd start with edgy.. there's a lot more documentation on edgy
[12:09] <Tatster> Slart: that's what the install scripts are trying to install
[12:09] <dcordes> LjL: apt-get just says it wasn't installed but it is...
[12:09] <Arrick> Flannel this one I saw was on dapper
[12:09] <Chapayev> whwerre can i get spca5xx/LE
[12:10] <razzorz> Hummm:..ok then..
[12:10] <Arrick> just saw it thi slast weekend when someone was asking me why he couldnt login, and I remoted in
[12:10] <Slart> Tatster: ah... so the Grub install fails? any error messages?
[12:10] <Flannel> Arrick: then I'm at a loss.  You'll have to just search the repositories
[12:10] <Arrick> ok
[12:10] <LjL> hendaus: then i think you might still have a problem, because IIRC that was broken (at least for some people) in Edgy. try System Settings / Monitor & Display / Power Saving, but i'm afraid it will not be there
[12:10] <Tatster> No the LILO install fails
[12:10] <Redhammer_the_Ol> hi
[12:10] <RoundyT1> who do i rename a folder via term
[12:10] <Redhammer_the_Ol> I have a short question
[12:10] <Slart> Tatster: oh.. and I don't know about the repos in feisty.. sorry
[12:10] <Redhammer_the_Ol> how do I flush dns cache
[12:11] <dcordes> LjL: ah now it is gone. I did that stuff you said and removed the packages
[12:11] <Reuben> how can i downgrade from feisty to edgy?
[12:11] <Tatster> Slart: This is edgy server
[12:11] <Slart> Tatster: but you can ask in #ubuntu+1 .That channel is dedicated to feisty suport
[12:11] <LjL> dcordes: as long as you make sure *important* packages aren't removed as well
[12:11] <hendaus> LjL,  yes i did the something :((((((((, so no solution coz my monitor is very hot
[12:11] <LjL> !downgrade | Reuben
[12:11] <Slart> bah.. sorry tatster..
[12:11] <ubotu> Reuben: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[12:11] <Slart> pewbu: but you can ask in #ubuntu+1 .That channel is dedicated to feisty suport
[12:12] <dcordes> LjL: for one of those apt-get said it would also like to remove gedit and stuff. that one i left
[12:12] <Slart> Tatster: sorry bout that.. so.. it is trying to install Lilo.. what is the error message? just "install failed"?
[12:12] <MoldPrince_> blah
[12:12] <LjL> dcordes: that sounds like a good idea ;P
[12:12] <rerconami> What package do I have to install so I can get manpages for C libraries? :P
[12:12] <dcordes> LjL: but i already noticed a big disadvantage. vlc seams to not play paths from ssh and smb. is that right?
[12:12] <LjL> !manpages-dev | rerconami
[12:12] <Reuben> LjL feisty updates broke my wifi support
[12:12] <ubotu> rerconami: manpages-dev: Manual pages about using GNU/Linux for development. In component main, is optional. Version 2.34-1 (edgy), package size 1183 kB, installed size 2908 kB
[12:12] <razzorz> LJL:http://paste.uni.cc/14118
[12:12] <rerconami> thanks
[12:12] <Tatster> Error is: The lilo package failed to install into /target/ Installing LILO as a boot loader is a required step.  The install problem might however be unrelated to LILO, so continuing the install may be possible
[12:13] <razzorz> http://paste.uni.cc/14118
[12:13] <razzorz> see that
[12:13] <Tatster> With an Option to continue anyway
[12:13] <LjL> dcordes: think so... those are KIO (under KDE) or gnomevfs (under GNOME) interfaces, not "real" file, and VLC is just a Wx app. you can always *mount* a Samba share and play from there, though, of course
[12:13] <PriceChild>  razzorz that error is actually just a warning
[12:13] <haxality> hello, I'd like to know why I used to be able to edit ID3 tags in rhythmbox but now I cant
[12:13] <moldprince> bl
[12:13] <razzorz> oic... ok..
[12:13] <Reuben> where can i get feisty support
[12:13] <PriceChild> razzorz, It wants you to import the "key" for seveas' repository, however I'm unsure where that is
[12:13] <Slart> Tatster: hmm.. well.. try continuing.. perhaps you can redo this step later.. you're not using anything weird in the disk setup?
[12:13] <Flannel> Reuben: #ubuntu+1
[12:13] <PriceChild> Reuben, #ubuntu+1
[12:14] <Redhammer_the_Ol> anybody know about the dns cache flush
[12:14] <PriceChild> beet you ;)
[12:14] <Reuben> thanks
[12:14] <LjL> razzorz: it's just saying you don't have the cryptographic key for that repository installed. you can get it if you want the warning to go away.
[12:14] <LjL> !seveas > razzorz    (razzorz, see the private message from Ubotu)
[12:14] <KurtKraut> Redhammer_the_Ol, ubuntu does not caches DNS queries by default
[12:14] <billy> RoundyT1: use the mv command.  mv /foldername1 /foldername2.  may have to use sudo, depending on whether or not root owns the folder.
[12:14] <Tatster> Slart: as in????
[12:14] <mountainman> does any one know if you can change the device that the volume up and down corresponds to?
[12:14] <LjL> !easysource > razzorz    (razzorz, see the private message from Ubotu) | this gives you the keys for all repositories you select, and short instructions for getting them
[12:14] <EchoBinary> Hello!
[12:14] <billy> mountainman:  right click the volume manager.  select preferences.
[12:15] <mountainman> does any one know if you can change the device that the volume up and down keys corresponds to?
[12:15] <billy> mountainman:  there will be a drop down list.
[12:15] <Tatster> 1 phys partition setup for LVM.  1 Vol group with that phy disk in, a few logical groups, and the partitions within those
[12:15] <razzorz> ok you read my source list...  why do i have 2 http://repository-cache:3142/ubuntu-security" and do i need 2 of them in there
[12:15] <EchoBinary> i need to back up about 300GB to multiple DVDs - anyone know of a free backup program that will queue it up for me?
[12:15] <Slart> Tatster: weird is for example.. using extremelt large or extremely small hard drives.. booting many operating systems from the same hard drive... using some ancient motherboard.... using a very very new motherboard
[12:15] <Flannel> !backup | EchoBinary
[12:15] <ubotu> EchoBinary: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[12:15] <Flannel> EchoBinary: some of those might, I dont know
[12:16] <Slart> Tatster: that doesn't sound weird to me... I haven't used lvm myself though..
[12:16] <haxality> can anyone tell me what's going on with rhythmbox?
[12:16] <Tatster> Slart: in that case no, quite normal.  a Dell Optiplex gx280 with a single 250GB IDE disk at the moment
[12:16] <Tatster> extra disks to follow - hence the LVM
[12:16] <Slart> Tatster: but continue the install.. I think you can install LILO or Grub later on
[12:16] <jaggz-> how do I know what's better for me, green or black tea?
[12:16] <billy> jaggz-: find your chi.
[12:16] <jaggz-> black being from the same plants as far as I know.
[12:17] <Tatster> Slart: ok - here goes nothing!
[12:17] <LjL> razzorz the repository list is half decent, and it's no issue that you have two security lines - what i don't in the leas understand is what that "repository-cache" it's trying to fetch things from *is*.
[12:17] <Slart> jaggz-: ask you inner child
[12:17] <jaggz-> billy, ahh..
[12:17] <haxality> jaggz-: drink both and see which one makes you feel better :)
[12:17] <kurkoten> hello
[12:17] <cafuego_> jaggz-: define 'better for me'
[12:17] <razzorz> hummm
[12:17] <jaggz-> you all are amazing
[12:17] <LjL> razzorz: have you installed things such as apt-cacher, approx, apt-proxy...?
[12:17] <EchoBinary> !sbackup
[12:17] <razzorz> No...
[12:18] <ubotu> sbackup is a tool to create complete and/or incremental backups (which can be scheduled to be automatic, and can be done over a network). It is available in !Universe
[12:18] <Slart> Tatster: I don't remember any problems with LILO/grub when I installed edgy... but I might just have been lucky
[12:18] <LjL> razzorz: also why do you have [what looks like]  a Debian repositories in your sources.list?
[12:18] <Slick__> hey guys, I've set samba up so my linux shares can be accessed from windows (but only by typing //ipaddress).  But it is not discoverable if I go in network neighbourhood or search for computers from inside media centre.  If anyone could give me any hints it would be really appretiated
[12:18] <razzorz> i see that too.. i am not sure..
[12:18] <razzorz> i got rid of it
[12:18] <RoundyT1> what permissions give www-data access and owner?
[12:19] <LjL> !offtopic
[12:19] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:19] <PriceChild> RoundyT1, keep them as defaults
[12:19] <RoundyT1> PriceChild, i need to change some i think for dokuwiki
[12:19] <RoundyT1> PriceChild, server side
[12:20] <Tatster> Slart:   It's looking good.  Rebooted at the end of the  install - and LILO ran, and now my shiny new server is coming alive!
[12:20] <floyd^> hello... can someone tell me a software similar to odc or strong dc or dc++ pls?
[12:20] <dcordes> LjL: is it possible to mount sshfs with fstab?
[12:20] <moonwatcher> hello
[12:20] <LjL> razzorz: you might still have stuff installed from it... anyway, try a "sudo apt-get clean" then a "sudo apt-get update", dunno what else do try
[12:20] <werdan7|away> Is there a way to install ubuntu with <256 MB of RAM?
[12:20] <KurtKraut> Tatster, why are you messing up with LILO ? Ubuntu is well integrated to GRUB
[12:20] <PriceChild> !alternate | werdan7|away (see the pm from ubotu)
[12:20] <ubotu> werdan7|away (see the pm from ubotu): The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[12:20] <cafuego_> werdan7|away: Yup, just install it as per normal.
[12:20] <moonwatcher> i am having issues with the avahi on fiesty
[12:20] <KurtKraut> werdan7|away, installing Ubuntu should be easy in machines with more than 192mb of RAM
[12:20] <digitalhav0c> hello can some one point me to were i could get web server hosting help on ubuntu?
[12:20] <LjL> dcordes: using FUSE
[12:20] <Tatster> KurtKraut: because that is what the installer installed.
[12:20] <Flannel> digitalhav0c: Here
[12:20] <KurtKraut> moonwatcher, as for help in #ubuntu+1
[12:21] <con-man> has anyone here had an issue with kiba dock showing up as a black bar?
[12:21] <Slart> Tatster, KurtKraut: apparently his install disc wants to install lilo.. I was asking myself the same question
[12:21] <KurtKraut> Tatster, in Ubuntu ? I dont think so. Ubuntu does not uses LILO.
[12:21] <cafuego_> werdan7|away: if you have *much* less, use the `alternate' iso and install in text mode - and perhaps not all of the Gnome stuff.
[12:21] <moonwatcher> KurtKraut: thx
[12:21] <PriceChild> con-man, #ubuntu-effects please. You need a running compositing manager
[12:21] <digitalhav0c> ok here is my issue i have a web server running on my other pc
[12:21] <CaptObvious> is there a way to force gnome into a custom resolution?  I need it in 1366x768
[12:21] <digitalhav0c> virtually hosting too sites
[12:21] <CaptObvious> I tried adding it into xorg.conf but it didn't seem to have any effect
[12:21] <razzorz> LJL:i think i know what it is:
[12:21] <Tatster> It's Ubuntu 6.10 server iso image - downloaded from ubuntu.com a couple of days ago
[12:21] <LjL> !sshfs > dcordes    (dcordes, see the private message from Ubotu) | look at the description, and check out the contents of tge fuse-utils package after installing it. i don't remember the specifics of mounting FUSE volumes
[12:22] <razzorz> i was trying to update my multiverse Packages
[12:22] <digitalhav0c> but i am unable to view them through url from any computer on my network but when im out side the network they are viewed correctly what could my problem be?
[12:22] <Flannel> Tatster: the alternate (and I guess the server) can install either GRUB or Lilo.
[12:22] <Nergar> where can i install a GUI for a ftp server???
[12:22] <cafuego_> digitalhav0c: name resolution
[12:22] <floyd^> hello... can someone tell me a software similar to odc or strong dc or dc++ pls?
[12:22] <LjL> !ftpd > Nergar    (Nergar, see the private message from Ubotu)
[12:22] <digitalhav0c> cafuego, how can i fix that?
[12:23] <Tatster> Flannel:  I didn't see a choice otherwise I would have chosen Grub
[12:23] <hanbus1> hi, does anybody know how to write a script that runs a program, then changes the name immediately after?
[12:23] <KurtKraut> digitalhav0c, something related to your routing settings. I suppose it is an issue outside your Ubuntu installation
[12:23] <digitalhav0c> ahh so could it be zoneedit?
[12:23] <LjL> !dcgui > floyd^    (floyd^, see the private message from Ubotu)
[12:23] <cafuego_> digitalhav0c: set up views in your local named, what's how I do it. That way, when on your lan, their names map to internal IP addresses.
[12:23] <Nergar> LjL, thanx, i think i'll try to install my wireless card with ndiswrapper
[12:24] <digitalhav0c> cafuego, could you go a little more in  to detail?
[12:24] <digitalhav0c> im not completely understanding?
[12:24] <Chapayev> help - where /how do i get spca5xx/LOE for my6 webcam ?
[12:24] <digitalhav0c> views? I am new to linux

[12:24] <Chapayev> help - where /how do i get spca5xx/LE for my webcam ?
[12:24] <floyd^> ty LjL
[12:24] <cafuego_> digitalhav0c: Your web server is on a 192.168.x.x address on the lan, right?
[12:24] <digitalhav0c> yes
[12:25] <digitalhav0c> hosts file?
[12:25] <yamit> somebody know something about beryl and knoppix
[12:25] <razzorz> LJL: now that i got rid of all that Garbage.... when i type "sudo apt-get update" everything shows with no errors
[12:25] <cafuego_> digitalhav0c: And your modem/router is port forwarding from a non-LAN IP
[12:25] <digitalhav0c> yes
[12:25] <jaggz-> cafuego, what is healthy for the body and spirit
[12:25] <KurtKraut> yamit, if you want general info about that, try searching in google instead.
[12:26] <cafuego_> digitalhav0c: When you conenct to the web adress now, your browser tries to reach your *external* IP from inside the lan, and the modem/router ignores you.
[12:26] <digitalhav0c> cafuego, i am using zoneedit for dns if that makes any difference
[12:26] <digitalhav0c> oh
[12:26] <razzorz> LJL: now that i typed that.. do i need to install them? or are they..
[12:26] <digitalhav0c> ok
[12:26] <cafuego_> digitalhav0c: What i do is run my own DNS inside the network - for just myself, which returns 192.168.x.x. IPs for those names that need to be useable from inside.
[12:26] <yamit> im write in the console beryl and show this mesage       XGL Absent, checking for NVIDIA    Nvidia Absent, checking for texture_from_pixmap    texture_from_pixmap Present  beryl: No composite extension
[12:26] <CaptObvious> I'm having an issue with screen resolution - I need to force GDM and Gnome into a non-standard resolution of 1366x768, but if I edit the xorg.conf to give this resolution as the only one available, it uses 1280x768 instead
[12:27] <digitalhav0c> ok
[12:27] <digitalhav0c> cafuego, is there a howto you could point me too again im a complete noob when it comes to linux
[12:27] <digitalhav0c> well not complete
[12:27] <cafuego_> digitalhav0c: Which admittedly isn't the easiest thing to set up in the world. Give the hosts file method a try and see how that goes first.
[12:27] <digitalhav0c> but might aswell be :(
[12:28] <CaptObvious> I found DNS really easy to set up with BIND and Webmin
[12:28] <digitalhav0c> but if i was to use hosts how would i be able to point to the other vitural hosts
[12:29] <LjL> razzorz, wait, install "them" what?
[12:29] <digitalhav0c> for example right now i have two tafadzwa.info and daclan.info
[12:29] <CaptObvious> foo.internal <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:29] <CaptObvious> bar.internal 192168.1.3
[12:29] <Redhammer_the_Ol> anything on the flushing of dns ?
[12:29] <Redhammer_the_Ol> I am still totally stumped
[12:29] <Redhammer_the_Ol> sorry to be a pain
[12:30] <razzorz> LJL:ya thats what i thought
[12:30] <bobbyd> hi, I'm having the problem described here with my G5: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-powerpc%40lists.debian.org/msg57822.html does anyone know how to fix it?
[12:30] <CaptObvious> Redhammer_the_Ol - http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=flush+DNS+linux&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a
[12:30] <bithunter> hi! is there a difference upgrading from edgy to feisty beta using the CD image or online upgrade?
[12:30] <digitalhav0c> CaptObvious, i think in turn lead me to the same page
[12:30] <razzorz> LJL: when i typed that.. and no errors came up.. all is well right?
[12:30] <CaptObvious> digitalhav0c - have you tried?
[12:30] <Redhammer_the_Ol> thank you cap obvious
[12:30] <Redhammer_the_Ol> but I tried that
[12:30] <theacolyte> !attitude Redhammer_the_Ol
[12:30] <Redhammer_the_Ol> and /etc/rc.d/init.d/nscd does not work
[12:31] <Redhammer_the_Ol> sorry I should have not pressed enter
[12:31] <McQueen> my touchpad is locking when i switch to other user. how can i fix it?
[12:31] <digitalhav0c> CaptObvious, how would the apache distingwish*sp between the too
[12:31] <CaptObvious> digitalhav0c - pixiedust and magic
[12:31] <CaptObvious> seriouly though
[12:31] <LjL> razzorz: if you have no errors and all the programs you want to have installed are installed, it should be alright.  only thing is, if that Debian repository installed stuff that it shouldn't have (remember, Debian != Ubuntu, don't use Debian repositories on Ubuntu), that could create problems. but it's hard to know if it did
[12:31] <Redhammer_the_Ol> it is a bad habit, it means I that I fail to write the entire message and therefore it looked very rude, I also tried restarting /etc/init.d/networking but that crashed my computer
[12:31] <digitalhav0c> oh ok
[12:31] <digitalhav0c> ill try real quick
[12:31] <Kazol> I am trying to install Nvidia, should I choose "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-23-686" or "linux restricted modules-686"?
[12:31] <CaptObvious> I think the browser sends the URL request in the header
[12:32] <CaptObvious> so as long as it's going to the right IP
[12:32] <haxality> hello, I'd like to know why I used to be able to edit ID3 tags in rhythmbox but now I cant
[12:32] <cafuego_> digitalhav0c: apache does that by looking at the Host: header and matching the host name strings internally.
[12:32] <con-man> PriceChild: Ive read your posts on the kiba howto thread, im not getting anywhere
[12:32] <KurtKraut> Kazol, what is your current kernel version ?
[12:32] <con-man> PriceChild: Im going to update beryl
[12:32] <noelferreira> what should be the line of /etc/fstab in order to mount a partition with ext3 filesystem and read/write permission for all users?
[12:32] <PriceChild> con-man, read the top of my first post :)
[12:32] <CaptObvious> cafuego - I was typing a serious response too :)
[12:32] <Nergar> i need someone to help me unistall the drivers for my wireless card so i can install it with ndiswrapper!!
[12:32] <razzorz> LJL: well i got rid of of it and looks ok now!....
[12:32] <KurtKraut> Kazol, type in terminal: uname-a and paste here saying my name.
[12:32] <mobomelter> hey is neozen around?
[12:32] <Flannel> noelferreira: I'd copy the ones from the other partitions
[12:33] <neozen> ish
[12:33] <neozen> helping someone locally
[12:33] <LjL> noelferreira: look at the line for / in your current fstab, that's exactly what is says... ;-) well, except that users will only have read/write on files they own, or files that were explicitly set read/write for everyone. but that goes for any normal Unix filesystem...
[12:33] <Kazol> KurtKraut: It cannot find the cmd
[12:33] <mobomelter> ah
[12:33] <con-man> PriceChild: ah the debs : ) nothing in there I need tho
[12:33] <neozen> ..there actually here asking for help
[12:33] <mobomelter> i need help with dual monitors when youget the chance
[12:33] <CaptObvious> Kazol - uname -a
[12:33] <neozen> kind of hard to ignore
[12:33] <Kazol> KurtKraut: I'm not sure howto find kernel version
[12:33] <PriceChild> con-man, down a bit
[12:33] <KurtKraut> Kazol, do you know how to open a Terminal window ?
[12:33] <neozen> mobomelter: I can't help you dude.. I don't do dual
[12:33] <CaptObvious> he missed a space by accident
[12:33] <mobomelter> bumer
[12:33] <con-man> PriceChild: lol the big red text?
[12:34] <PriceChild> con-man, that bold red text wanting you to read!
[12:34] <CaptObvious> KurtKraut - you missed a space in  your instructions
[12:34] <Kazol> I get 2.6.15-26-386
[12:34] <hobs> Hello again, yesterday I got help installing the nvidia drivers and they worked fine, today I got an error telling me that I had no nvidia capable devices on my machine :(
[12:34] <CaptObvious> KurtKraut - so he was typing uname-a instead of uname -a
[12:34] <noelferreira> LjL: so it will work like my /home partition write?
[12:34] <KurtKraut> CaptObvious, oh, I didn't notice... thanks
[12:34] <mobomelter> i guess i'll figure it out after i go outside
[12:34] <con-man> PriceChild: I know that and I have the older version installed
[12:34] <CaptObvious> KurtKraut - no problemo
[12:34] <Kazol> so I should download that package, right?
[12:34] <PriceChild> con-man, so what's the problem now? black bar?
[12:34] <KurtKraut> Kazol, as CaptObvious said, I've missed a space... type in your terminal: uname -a
[12:34] <con-man> PriceChild: yeah
[12:35] <KurtKraut> Kazol, this should prompt your kernel version;
[12:35] <Kazol> thx, done it already. I'm downloading the package with the same version.
[12:35] <McQueen> hey, i have got a problem with touchpad, i can use it well in a user but it s getting lock when i switch to other user. so i cant use my touchpad. how can i fix it?
[12:35] <hobs> What is the command to configure X again?
[12:35] <billy> bye y'all!
[12:35] <CaptObvious> I'm having an issue with screen resolution - I need to force GDM and Gnome into a non-standard resolution of 1366x768, but if I edit the xorg.conf to give this resolution as the only one available, it uses 1280x768 instead
[12:35] <noelferreira> didn't work LjL i can't write in it. ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[12:35] <KurtKraut> Kazol, don't do that. Paste your kernel version to me as I asked, please.
[12:36] <PriceChild> con-man, you're not running a compositing manager?
[12:36] <noelferreira> what should be the line of /etc/fstab in order to mount a partition with ext3 filesystem and read/write permission for all users?
[12:36] <Kazol> KurtKraut: 2.6.15-26-386 Should I download the package with this name?
[12:36] <con-man> PriceChild: Im running beryl right now.
[12:36] <LjL> noelferreira: change permissions on the root of it using sudo first. sudo chmod a+rwx /media/whatever
[12:36] <con-man> PriceChild: I know I should only get the black bar when I am not running beryl
[12:36] <con-man> PriceChild: but I get it anyways
[12:36] <PriceChild> con-man, well then i blame a bug in kiba-dock
[12:37] <KurtKraut> Kazol, what version of Ubuntu are you running ?
[12:37] <con-man> PriceChild: lol
[12:37] <Kazol> I think 6.06-the one on the free cds.
[12:37] <noelferreira> LjL: and i will have to do that every time i want to mount it?
[12:37] <LjL> noelferreira: no
[12:37] <noelferreira> LjL: i wanted it to be automounted. what shoul i do?
[12:37] <mihailo> anyone here know how to get tv out to work on an nvidia card?
[12:38] <LjL> noelferreira: i said "no"
[12:38] <LjL> noelferreira: will you have to do it every time? no. once.
[12:38] <digitalhav0c> CaptObvious, I apologize for doubting you it worked thanks guys :)
[12:38] <CaptObvious> digitalhav0c - no problem
[12:38] <CaptObvious> have fun with DNS if you eventually get one set up :)
[12:38] <McQueen> hey, i have got a problem with touchpad, i can use it well in a user but it s getting lock when i switch to other user. so i cant use my touchpad. how can i fix it?
[12:39] <razzorz> LJL: sorry to bother ya.. but i am ttying to get this prorgram working.. but it says:
[12:39] <KurtKraut> Kazol, then, install linux-restricted-modules-386
[12:39] <digitalhav0c> CaptObvious, yeah i want to get that down eventually but for now this will work
[12:39] <noelferreira> ok LjL
[12:39] <KurtKraut> Kazol, this is a shortcut to the latest linux-restricted-modules version for 386.
[12:39] <digitalhav0c> can you point me to a reference for internal dnx
[12:39] <digitalhav0c> can you point me to a reference for internal dnx
[12:39] <digitalhav0c> can you point me to a reference for internal dns
[12:39] <razzorz> LJL...Error: Could not find 'Gstreamer Multimedia Framework 0.8'. Try using the native package manager for Ubuntu 6.10 (apt-get) to install a package with similar name to 'gstreamer-0.8'.

[12:39] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:39] <digitalhav0c> CaptObvious, thats a will do thanks again
[12:40] <IndyGunFreak> poor fella probably didn't know.
[12:40] <noelferreira> LjL: still didn't work
[12:40] <Kazol> linux-image-2.6.15-23-386 (version 2.6.15-23.39) will be installed
[12:40] <Kazol> linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-23-386 (version <IP_ADDRESS>-1) will be installed
[12:40] <Kazol> nvidia-glx (version 1.0.8762+<IP_ADDRESS>-1) will be installed
[12:40] <razzorz> My bad,,,
[12:40] <LjL> !pastebin > Kazol    (Kazol, see the private message from Ubotu)
[12:40] <CaptObvious> and you can administer it from a web interface rather than command line :P
[12:40] <digitalhav0c> now for my last problem for the day
[12:40] <digitalhav0c> phpmyadmin
[12:40] <Kazol> oops, anyway, are those packages ok? Should I proceed downloading them?
[12:41] <KurtKraut> CaptObvious, that removes the beauty of the command life but... life is not perfect.
[12:41] <mihailo> tv out not working, geforce 6800, ubuntu edgy, help please!
[12:41] <digitalhav0c> how do i alias it so it works off the virtual hosts?
[12:41] <LjL> razzorz: try installing the package  libgstreamer0.8-dev... what program is that, anyway?
[12:41] <CaptObvious> KurtKraut - for the newbies it's sometimes necessary
[12:41] <KurtKraut> Kazol, no... you should install linux-restricted-modules-386. This package will require the latest linux-restricted modules as a dependency
[12:41] <digitalhav0c> i have it installed but im unable to go any furter
[12:41] <mxktmdude> Hi guys, im trying to figure out how to install the smp kernel.. is there a smp kernel version 2.6.17 or higher?
[12:41] <KurtKraut> CaptObvious, sure, I do know that... I was just kidding :P
[12:41] <noelferreira> LjL: /dev/hda2 /mnt/stuff    ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[12:41] <noelferreira> LjL: didn't work
[12:42] <digitalhav0c> i cant login to it
[12:42] <razzorz> LJL: Gaim-VV
[12:42] <razzorz> is the program.. and istall what?... libgstreamer0.8-dev
[12:42] <LjL> noelferreira: right, that's the fstab line, but what you did now is  sudo chmod a+rwx /mnt/stuff  after (or before?) it was mounted?
[12:42] <|Amon|> what's a good front end to courier mail server?
[12:43] <noelferreira> i did it LjL and it didn't worked
[12:43] <LjL> razzorz: that's what i said. try.
[12:43] <razzorz> sorry.. ty
[12:43] <DanteSparda> Hey I'm having an issue with installing Yahoo messenger. When I try to do it it says "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: xlibs". I've tried everything I could find to fix it and nothing works. I'm running Edgy Eft, if that helps.
[12:43] <Arrick> you know what?
[12:44] <Arrick> hey LjL what kind of apache experience you have?
[12:44] <noelferreira> LjL: it work now
[12:44] <KurtKraut> DanteSparda, isn't Gaim suitable for you ? You may use Yahoo accounts in Gaim to chat with your friends.
[12:44] <LjL> Arrick: very little. i have apache installed, but that's about it
[12:44] <LjL> noelferreira: what made it work?
[12:44] <Arrick> lol
[12:44] <|Amon|> DanteSparda, use Gaim?
[12:44] <RoundyT1> i need some dokuwiki help
[12:44] <DanteSparda> Gaim is sutable, I just like to try new things and I've never tried the official Yahoo on linux
[12:44] <Arrick> anyone here have the 6.06.1 LAMP server installed that would be willing to help out with getting the server to accept pages somehow?
[12:45] <Kazol> KurtKraut: I already have linux-restricted-modules-386 installed. Should I just install "nvidia-glx"?
[12:45] <DanteSparda> my mind works in mysterious ways and I just want Yahoo ^^
[12:45] <|Amon|> DanteSparda, why would you migrate from Windows to install non-open source software on your computer?
[12:45] <KurtKraut> Kazol, yes
[12:45] <|Amon|> one of the main points of GNU/Linux is to be free of restrictive licenses
[12:45] <digitalhav0c> I <3 ubuntu lol
[12:45] <Kazol> kurtkraut; ok, thanks for your help.
[12:45] <KurtKraut> DanteSparda, I think the same as |Amon|
[12:45] <mihailo> tv out not working, geforce 6800, ubuntu edgy, help please!
[12:46] <|Amon|> Also, if you use Gaim, likewise, if you use Ubuntu, make a donation if you can
[12:46] <|Amon|> or purchase from canonical... :>
[12:46] <noelferreira> i had a icon and i guess the path was not refreshed so i wouldn't be able for make a new directory lke i was testing. so opening a terminal makes me look that i could create directories.
[12:46] <noelferreira> LjL:
[12:47] <LjL> i see
[12:47] <Kazol> kurtkraut: ok, now I'm getting that "linux-image-2.6.15-23-386" has to be also installed. Is this normal?
[12:47] <DanteSparda> Well now that I'm here, I got one more question. What's the best torrenting program for Linux?
[12:47] <hanbus1> who here is good with shell scripts?
[12:47] <Flannel> !best | DanteSparda
[12:47] <ubotu> DanteSparda: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[12:47] <Shaba1> brb folks
[12:47] <digitalhav0c> how do i install the restricted codecs in fiesty
[12:48] <Flannel> digitalhav0c: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support, thanks
[12:48] <|Amon|> DanteSparda, theres lots. i use bit tornado which is pretty basic.
[12:48] <digitalhav0c> im trying to watch a avi
[12:48] <digitalhav0c> oh ok
[12:48] <digitalhav0c> thanks
[12:48] <hanbus1> |amon|: is there any way to even resume with bit tornado?
[12:48] <|Amon|> reopen the torrent
[12:48] <|Amon|> =]
[12:48] <DanteSparda> I'll rephrase. What's a good torrenting program that lets me select which files I want and which files I don't?
[12:48] <Kazol> So is it ok that "linux-image-2.6.15-23-386" is also going to be installed?
[12:48] <dws> how can i boot in non-X
[12:48] <dws> ?
[12:49] <Flannel> DanteSparda: er... don't you do that by choosing which torrents you download?
[12:49] <hanbus1> |amon|: are they stored if you open them instead of saving them in firefox?
[12:49] <|Amon|> DanteSparda, applications>add remove torrent
[12:49] <|Amon|> hanbus1, i always save the *torrent
[12:49] <hanbus1> |amon|: bloody hell, i gotta start doing that
[12:50] <thunder_storm> Hello everybody
[12:50] <|Amon|> :p
[12:50] <hanbus1> now is anybody here good with shell scripts?
[12:50] <Flannel> !anyone | hanbus1
[12:50] <ubotu> hanbus1: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:50] <User558> help
[12:50] <DanteSparda> Sometimes you get a torrent where there are some files in it that you don't want. I just want a torrenting program that lets me prune files outta the download that I don't want and uTorrent tends to freeze under wine
[12:50] <hanbus1> i need uber help with a shell script, i made some changes but i need help with some more
[12:50] <kinto> hi all
[12:50] <|Amon|> so does anyone know of a decent gui front end for courier?
[12:51] <kinto> how can I visualize correctly in nautilus accented characters?
[12:51] <thunder_storm> I have created a funny Ubuntu-Picture for our German Ubuntu Friends - just see: http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s77/Dinchen1/Ubuntu-Tube.png
[12:51] <User558> need help with loading desktop cd
[12:51] <linxeh> DanteSparda: does azureus do that ?
[12:51] <thunder_storm> What do you think about it?
[12:51] <DanteSparda> I believe it does
[12:52] <hanbus1> thunder_storm: thats so wrong, but so right hahaha
[12:52] <DanteSparda> Shoot I forgot about that. I used that under windows XD
[12:52] <rhY^3> How do I set up 5.1 sound?
[12:52] <thunder_storm> It's Marketing :-)
[12:52] <|Amon|> DanteSparda, my connection is 7Mbps so downloading files i dont want i just delete after i unrar them
[12:52] <rhY^3> Someone got a link?
[12:53] <adrian_hu> Hey all, id like to use Ubuntu again, was thinking of the Feisty beta but I have 2 small question about that (1: When in April its expected to come out? Very start, end or? 2: If I start using it now, can I upgrade to the final version normally?)
[12:53] <DanteSparda> I wish mine was that fast. I'm lucky to get 500kbps
[12:53] <yamit> hi
[12:53] <kinto> thunder_storm: what does mean "einfach wohlfuhlen"?
[12:53] <linxeh> |Amon|: wow. 7mbps
[12:53] <|Amon|> if you do what i said in add/remove programs you can search for a torrent app you want
[12:53] <rhY^3> april 19th
[12:53] <rhY^3> 2 yes.
[12:53] <|thunder> bittyrant rules
[12:53] <adrian_hu> Is the beta relatively stable now btw?
[12:54] <DanteSparda> Now I got a question. You on T3 or something?
[12:54] <thunder_storm> kinto: it means: "Ubuntu Linux - just feel good."
[12:54] <rhY^3> i find it stable.
[12:54] <Flannel> adrian_hu: #ubuntu+1 would better be able to answer re: stability
[12:54] <|Amon|> linxeh, my server is on a burstable 100mbps fast-e
[12:54] <KurtKraut> adrian_hu, no... I just had a X crash today and it was a bit hard to recover the ability of loggin into an X session. Beta should be not used in a production computer.
[12:54] <|thunder> |Amon|; what host ?
[12:55] <linxeh> |Amon|: there are people here with 100 mbit to their house
[12:55] <mikebeecham> #Beryl
[12:55] <kinto> ok thunder_storm, thanks :)
[12:55] <adrian_hu> KurtKraut: that could be a very rare case of a special vga or such :)
[12:55] <linxeh> |Amon|: some people here have STM64 to their servers
[12:55] <paradroid> Hi all. I have videos grabbed from a DV tape now residing as files with DV (ffmpeg) codec residing on my disk. I need to give them to a friend to edit them. He is on a Windows system and can't decode them. What would be the best, i. e. losless, format I should convert them to using what tool?
[12:55] <|Amon|> |thunder, it's down in the cage at my datacenter in denver tech center
[12:55] <|Amon|> linxeh, i wasn't bragging...
[12:55] <KurtKraut> adrian_hu, not at all... a genuine nvidia card properly working before the last update in reprositories :P
[12:56] <|thunder> |Amon|; ohh, hoped it was a commerc host
[12:56] <linxeh> |Amon|: my bad :)
[12:56] <adrian_hu> rhY^3, last question, does the 7.04 offer much more to worth using it even if its beta? (comparing to the stable 6.10)
[12:56] <linxeh> paradroid: if you convert them to a "lossless" format you are not going to have enough diskspace
[12:56] <|Amon|> comcast shares the building ;]
[12:56] <linxeh> adrian_hu: I just upgraded to get the newer kernels
[12:57] <Zaiden> I'm having trouble on step 2 of the "install and activate drivers" part: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[12:57] <rhY^3> Adrian, it offers significant improvements.
[12:57] <|Amon|> qwest
[12:57] <linxeh> adrian_hu: seems fine, and loads more stuff just "works"
[12:57] <|Amon|> it's in some bank building
[12:57] <|Amon|> heh
[12:57] <rhY^3> I didn't even like Ubuntu until Feisty.
[12:57] <paradroid> linxeh: I would hand them over on a mobile disk. Space is not really a problem (I hope).
[12:57] <mihailo> tv out not working, geforce 6800, ubuntu edgy, help please!
[12:57] <linxeh> paradroid: you likely wont have enough disk space :)
[12:58] <paradroid> linxeh: OK. Any recommended codecs for nearly-losless? ;)
[12:58] <rhY^3> What's a good Dscaler replacement for ubuntu?
[12:58] <|Amon|> paradroid, acc?
[12:58] <mihailo> no one here uses tv out?
[12:58] <rhY^3> Do you guys recommend MythTV?
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> mihailo: i do
[12:58] <jetscreamer> rhY^3: it's good
[12:58] <linxeh> paradroid: your friend should be able to read them if you did things right
[12:58] <adrian_hu> So linxeh and rhY^3 you suggest to use Feisty beta? Stability would be cool but if its crashing once in a while its not emergency (using it for web developing mainly)
[12:58] <jetscreamer> mythtv.org iirc.. know lwhat you're doing before you do
[12:59] <linxeh> paradroid: what codec did you use originally ?
[12:59] <mihailo> IndyGunFreak: what card do you have?
[12:59] <rhY^3> thanks jet, I'll give it a shot.
[12:59] <linxeh> adrian_hu: I'm using it now its beta - just be prepared to download lots of patches
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> mihailo: Hauppage WinTV GO+
[12:59] <rhY^3> I recommend Feisty.  Or some other distro.
[12:59] <KurtKraut> adrian_hu, I suggest to you just way. Feisty will be released within a month.
[12:59] <paradroid> linxeh: Right now there are 12 separate files of ~1GB size. Players tell me they are in DV (ffmpeg) for video and Linear PCM for audio.
[01:00] <linxeh> rhY^3: heh. for me ubuntu has been fine since dapper (hoary need too much tweaking)
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> rhY^3: there'snot that much difference between feisty and edgy
[01:00] <mihailo> IndyGunFreak: oh ok, im looking for someone with an nvidia card :)
[01:00] <KurtKraut> adrian_hu, I mean, I suggest you to wait until Feisty release in April
[01:00] <rhY^3> It's stable "enough" though... :)
[01:00] <linxeh> paradroid: hmm - what does the file command say they are in ?
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> mihailo: good luck
[01:00] <paradroid> linxeh: dvgrab-001.avi: RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 720 x 576, 25.00 fps, video:, audio: uncompressed PCM (stereo, 48000 Hz)
[01:00] <adrian_hu> Hm I really don't know what to do know :) I mean half of you suggesting beta, other half not hehe :)
[01:01] <rhY^3> The small diffs between Edgy and Feisty make it a OS I would suggest for the common person, I'd not have recommended Edgy.
[01:01] <linxeh> paradroid: hmm, so he should be able to read that on his machine - you have them as .avi files ?
[01:01] <Zaiden> I'm having a hard time figuring out what to do in these instructions on how to install my nvidia binary driver
[01:01] <IndyGunFreak> rhY^3: so what would you recommend over Edgy?
[01:01] <lineman60> dose anyone knwo if there is a package to chage the error messages to funny ones
[01:01] <linxeh> Zaiden: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx ?
[01:01] <paradroid> linxeh: Yes, the container is .avi. I tried on an old Windows machine with Adobe Premiere. It will play the sound but only display garbled video.
[01:01] <dws> how can i boot in non-X mode?
[01:01] <rhY^3> It still needs an icon on the desktop somewhere that automagically installs all the gstreamer codecs.
[01:01] <razzorz> LJL: you still here ?
[01:01] <KurtKraut> Zaiden, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:02] <linxeh> paradroid: did you have suitable codecs install on the windows machine? you might need to install the nimo codec pack, or the klite codec pack ?
[01:02] <rhY^3> But other than that and a few stability tweaks, Feisty is ready to beat windows.
[01:02] <mihailo> Ubuntu's a great distro, but it has the same problem for me as all other distros... i cant get a cloned picture onto my tv! and since i use the computer as a dvd player, thats a big minus
[01:02] <rhY^3> First distro I've tried that I would say that about.
[01:02] <KurtKraut> mihailo, have you asked for help in a webforum ?
[01:02] <linxeh> mihailo: worked here (albeit using twin DVI)
[01:02] <Zaiden> KurtKraut: I'm having an issue of step 2 in the "Install and activate" drivers part
[01:02] <paradroid> linxeh: There are probably hardly that much codecs set up on the Windows machine, you are right.
[01:02] <KurtKraut> Zaiden, what kind of issue ?
[01:03] <mihailo> i asked on a couple of forums
[01:03] <linxeh> paradroid: download the klite mega codec pack for a starter I think; see if that works
[01:03] <mihailo> and none of the suggestions worked
[01:03] <mihailo> whatever i did to xorg, it crashed
[01:03] <linxeh> mihailo: what card /
[01:03] <Zaiden> KurtKraut: I'm not sure which module to pick.
[01:03] <paradroid> linxeh: OK, thank you. Otherwise, what is acc. Sorry if that's a stupid question.
[01:03] <mihailo> GeForce 6800LE
[01:03] <KurtKraut> mihailo, have you reported in those forums that the proceedings leaded to no success ?
[01:03] <razzorz> LJL: your idea for me to install that worked wonders.. but for somereason the progy just hangs then stopes.. but when i installed it, this . Checking for GNU Transport Layer Security ... failed, how do i fix this?
[01:04] <mihailo> i tried nvtv but it says it can't recognise my card
[01:04] <nomad411> hi folks.. Why would a PC boot from windows CDs, but refuse to boot from Knoppix, Ubuntu, etc..
[01:04] <pb> command line equavalent for ndiswrapper uses "iwconfig wlan0 essid name"  what is the command when using a linux driver wifi?
[01:04] <KurtKraut> Zaiden, open up a terminal Window and type: uname -a
[01:04] <mihailo> i tried on nvnews forum and linux questions
[01:04] <linxeh> mihailo: I had it working on a 6600GT just fine - I had to install the binary nvidia drivers from the edgy repositories, and then it was easy (there was an nvidia control panel iirc that let me do it)
[01:04] <KurtKraut> Zaiden, paste the result here to me.
[01:04] <mihailo> I installed the nvidia glx package through automatix
[01:04] <Zaiden> KurtKraut: Linux mike-desktop 2.6.15-26-386 #1 PREEMPT Thu Aug 3 02:52:00 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:04] <KurtKraut> mihailo, distro-related forums are better for this
[01:04] <linxeh> eugh automatix
[01:04] <linxeh> DELETE THAT RUBBISH
[01:04] <linxeh> :)
[01:04] <KurtKraut> Zaiden, install linux-restricted-modules-386
[01:04] <IndyGunFreak> lol, mihailo, thats why it doesn't work
[01:05] <Zaiden> KurtKraut: Thank you
[01:05] <razzorz> Can anyone help me with this issue!!! " Checking for GNU Transport Layer Security ... failed "
[01:05] <mihailo> ahm, but i have the nv control panel, just no dual monitor option
[01:05] <aeropixie> mihailo: I agree, using automatix crates more problems than solutions.
[01:05] <linxeh> mihailo: odd; you might need to add options to the nvidia module when its loaded
[01:06] <eNons3nse> i'm having an internet problem with a laptop i just put ubuntu on.
[01:06] <mihailo> linxeh: how do i do that?
[01:06] <KurtKraut> eNons3nse, explain briefly what sort of problem
[01:06] <mobomelter> alright does anyone here run dual monitors?
[01:06] <aeropixie> eNons3nse: waht is the problm?
[01:06] <linxeh> mihailo: im having a search. Did you have the TV etc connected when you turned the machine on ?
[01:06] <razzorz> Anyone...Checking for GNU Transport Layer Security ... failed <<<< whats with this
[01:07] <Kazol> kurtkraut: I tried installing nvidia drivers, but I got this error message: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12415/
[01:07] <mihailo> yup, it's connected all the time by an svideo cable
[01:07] <rhY^3> Kazol, are you doing it through Synaptic?
[01:07] <abo> hey did any one read the mandriva's boss open letter to the french parliament, attaking their choice of Ubuntu  :-)
[01:07] <mihailo> in windows i have a picture on the tv the moment the system starts
[01:07] <Kazol> yes

[01:07] <eNons3nse> i'm trying to use a wired ethernet connection.  it works with the laptop just fine at my work.  when i've got it at home though & plug my e-net cord from my desktop into my laptop it say's that it's connected and is recieving & sending packets, but i can't get to any web pages or sign onto gaim or anything.

[01:08] <razzorz> :))
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> moron
[01:08] <aeropixie> is it possible to kick someone?
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> i wonder what inspired that
[01:08] <mobomelter> if we had an op
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> aeropixie: no, you need op powers
[01:08] <eNons3nse> the same cord works just fine on my ubuntu desktop.
[01:08] <aeropixie> ah
[01:08] <razzorz> he did not get enuff attention from his parents as a child
[01:08] <razzorz> thats all
[01:08] <abo> rhY^3,  aeropixie, I have it in french... I'll try to find a translation, here's the french http://corp.mandriva.com/webteam/2007/03/23/lettre-ouverte-aux-deputes-de-lassemblee-nationale/
[01:08] <aeropixie> that makes sense
[01:08] <rhY^3> It was probably Balmer.
[01:08] <Kazol> I tried executing md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf | sudo tee /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum, but it totally messed up X server and I had to reinstall Ubuntu?
[01:08] <razzorz> yeah
[01:08] <nomad411> So no one knows why a PC boots from windows CDs, but refuse to boot from Knoppix, Ubuntu, etc..
[01:08] <KurtKraut> rhY^3, ahahaha
[01:09] <razzorz> OK who is the biggest ubuntu GEEK here?
[01:09] <aeropixie> abo: i can run it througgh babel or something.
[01:09] <aeropixie> abo: thanks
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> nomad411: are you sure they're burned properly?
[01:09] <razzorz> someone help.. if i begg i will it help?

[01:09] <razzorz> Checking for GNU Transport Layer Security ... failed
[01:09] <razzorz> HELP
[01:09] <failure2stop> Hey,  Got a quick question.  FOr intel based macs i download the 64bit AMD and INTEL download or the standard one?
[01:09] <Kazol> Any idea why I get this message installing Nvidia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12415/ ?
[01:09] <razzorz> thats what it says when i install Gaim-VV....
[01:10] <eNons3nse> anyone have any ideas?
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> nomad411: are you sure the ISO files are burned correctly
[01:10] <nomad411> IndyGunFreak, I just realized, mayb ethe CDROM won;t read burned CDs
[01:10] <KurtKraut> Kazol, wait
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> nomad411: thats pretty unlikely
[01:10] <Zaiden> Kazol: I'm getting the same thing
[01:10] <nomad411> IndyGunFreak, I'm not sure, it;s for someone else
[01:10] <razzorz> I assume that no one knows!!
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> nomad411: what type of media?.. don't use RWs
[01:10] <morrolan> Hi, how can I install an smtp server on Ubuntu-Server 6.06?
[01:11] <Kazol> I installed it before, somehow before my hd failed.
[01:11] <KurtKraut> Kazol, type this in terminal and paste to me: lspci | grep nVidia
[01:11] <nomad411> IndyGunFreak, good point
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> nomad411: if no version of linux will boot, something tells me he's burning them wrong
[01:11] <Kazol> 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400]  (rev b2)
[01:12] <KurtKraut> Kazol, since you have a GeForce2 card, that is an old card, you have to install the package 'nvidia-glx-legacy' instead of 'nvidia-glx' only
[01:12] <rhY^3> Mandriva: How do you spell "sour grapes" in French?
[01:12] <pb>  ndiswrapper uses command "iwconfig wlan0 essid name"  what does linux driver wifi command look like?
[01:12] <Prez> hello
[01:12] <failure2stop> Hey,  Got a quick question.  FOr intel based macs i download the 64bit AMD and INTEL download or the standard one?
[01:13] <eNons3nse> should i try asking on the ubuntu forum instead?
[01:13] <Zaiden> KurtKraut: if I did an upgrade of a green squared module before the one you told me to do, will it affect my system at all?
[01:13] <morrolan> Hi, how can I install an smtp server on Ubuntu-Server 6.06?
[01:13] <Innatech> #morrolan: Try looking at the relevant sections of this HOWTO: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06
[01:13] <Kazol> kurtkraut: I'll try it, though the first time it did work under glx
[01:13] <Innatech> err, @morrolan, that is. :)
[01:13] <KurtKraut> Kazol, this process is well explained in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:13] <Bluedog> eNons3nse:
[01:13] <Bluedog> sounds like dns or something to me
[01:14] <Bluedog> does pinging microsoft.com work
[01:14] <KurtKraut> Zaiden, 'green squared' ?
[01:14] <morrolan> Innatech - thanks for that!
[01:14] <Innatech> morrolan -- my pleasure. Enjoy!
[01:14] <razzorz> wow...
[01:14] <razzorz> even google is no help
[01:14] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: ok bad example, try ping 3dpixelnet.com
[01:14] <aeropixie> ping microsoft.com, why microsoft.com? randome choice.
[01:14] <aeropixie> :p
[01:15] <Bluedog> microsoft seems to have filtered pings lol
[01:15] <aeropixie> really?
[01:15] <Pici> Bluedog: I was just going to say that.
[01:15] <Zaiden> KurtKraut: In the Synaptic Package Manager. When I searched "linux-restricted-modules", some of them were already checked green in the little squares to the left.
[01:15] <mihailo> so am i supposed to have some option to add a monitor in the nvidia panel?
[01:15] <KurtKraut> Zaiden, this mean that they're alread installed.
[01:15] <rhY^3> Zaiden: Those are already installed.
[01:15] <aeropixie> i always tell people to ping yahoo's ip, i just cant remember it. At work i have it on my monitro
[01:15] <mihailo> or do i have to manually mess with xorg?
[01:15] <aeropixie> *moitor
[01:15] <Kazol> kurtkraut: according to http://http.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8762/README/appendix-a.html, it did not list MX 400 as legacy.
[01:15] <rhY^3> *sigh* I'm too slow.
[01:16] <Zaiden> But if I marked one of them for an upgrade, will that affect anything?
[01:16] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: i'm gonna try.  is it just "ping 3dpixelnet.com" in the terminal?  i have to disconnect the e-net from this computer to try it, so i'll have to come back with the results.
[01:16] <adrian_hu> what version of Gnome does the Edgy has?
[01:16] <morrolan> exit
[01:16] <Zaiden> Marked for an upgrade and did the upgrade*
[01:16] <aeropixie> 2.14 i believe.
[01:16] <aeropixie> 2.16.1 that is
[01:16] <KurtKraut> Kazol, hmmm... quite funny
[01:16] <adrian_hu> and, is the FF 2 included by default?
[01:17] <aeropixie> yes
[01:17] <adrian_hu> thanks
[01:17] <KurtKraut> Kazol, so let's try to force the current installed nvidia-glx
[01:17] <KurtKraut> Kazol, are you using Ubuntu or Kubuntu ?
[01:17] <mihailo> can someone with nvidia drivers check the control panell?
[01:17] <Kazol> kurtkraut: ubuntu
[01:17] <ubuntu_> Is Feisty beta stable enough for normal use?
[01:17] <rhY^3> Adrian: yeah, FF is the default browser for a while.
[01:17] <aeropixie> no.
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_: no
[01:18] <aeropixie> ubuntu_: no, not really
[01:18] <rhY^3> ubuntu_: Yes.  Unless you run a bank or something.
[01:18] <paradroid> mihailo: Sorry, I didn't pay attention. What do you need to know?
[01:18] <asc> ./bonk self
[01:18] <adrian_hu> rhY^3, I know but 2.x+ version was my question ;)
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> rhY^3: that is very bad information
[01:18] <KurtKraut> Kazol, type: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:18] <mihailo> is there an option to add my tv in the nvidia settings panel?
[01:18] <linxeh> ubuntu_: im using it; i'd say it was - but some stuff is broken occasionally, and lots of packages change
[01:18] <Kazol> kurtkraut: I tried executing the command in the error message, but it completely messed up the X server, and I had to completely reinstall.
[01:18] <aeropixie> asc: you may have differenet reuslts than me, but it attacked me on vmware and on full install.
[01:18] <rhY^3> IndyGunFreak: I am providing my advice based on experience.
[01:18] <rhY^3> Your results may vary.
[01:18] <mihailo> because i installed the driver through automatix. it works but i see no such option
[01:18] <pb__>  ndiswrapper uses command "iwconfig wlan0 essid name"  what does linux driver wifi command look like?
[01:19] <dave> hello, i installed the w32codecs and m-player, it starts to load the mplayer and corrresponding wmfile, but then stops and closes window. I read all the wikis etc and am aware of the restricted status etc. Can you provide further help?
[01:19] <Zaiden> Bah, I keep getting that X error message
[01:19] <asc> Hmm, okay.  Been trying to install 6.10, and that's not working so well.  Probably a hardware problem though, so I suppose 7.04 wouldn't make it better.
[01:19] <Kazol> kurtkraut: ok, I opened it.
[01:19] <paradroid> mihailo: I neither see such an option. I did not use Automatix, though.
[01:19] <linxeh> mihailo: why didnt you use the ones in the repositories
[01:19] <rhY^3> But if you give Average Joe Feisty beta, or Edgy Stable, they are going to get more done easier with Feisty Beta.
[01:19] <paradroid> mihailo: My driver version is 1.0-8776
[01:19] <rhY^3> So screw edgy. :P
[01:19] <OuZo> where does GNUMP3d store its files or data? thanks
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> rhY^3: that may be the case, but why would youu suggest that to a newbie?
[01:19] <KalleDK> Hep is the ubuntu server edgy UTF-8 as standard ???
[01:19] <mihailo> because when i used those, i got some api mismatch error
[01:19] <linxeh> rhY^3: rubbish. the average joe wants to use openoffice and firefox at the most
[01:19] <KalleDK> Hep is the ubuntu server *dapper* UTF-8 as standard ???
[01:19] <aeropixie> asc: yeah, any hardware issues will probably be worse. Just install from 6.06 and upgrade, it always work best for me.
[01:19] <KurtKraut> Kazol, search for: Section "Device"
[01:19] <rhY^3> Because it's better than Vista?
[01:19] <linxeh> KalleDK: do echo $LANG
[01:20] <Pici> !offtopic
[01:20] <mihailo> so i reinstalled the whole ubuntu and added them with automatix
[01:20] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> rhY^3: get real...
[01:20] <linxeh> KalleDK: it will tell you the encoding used by default
[01:20] <KurtKraut> Kazol, and paste this section to me thru http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[01:20] <KalleDK> Thx you :D And its UTF-8 :D
[01:20] <root_> has anyone ever run halo on ubuntu in any way
[01:20] <mihailo> paradroid: same here
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> !automatix
[01:20] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[01:20] <linxeh> tainter: why the HELL are you running IRC as root ?
[01:20] <tainter> sorry
[01:20] <rhY^3> IGF: I AM real.  Vista is a significant downgrade of XP.  Feisty is an Upgrade, even in beta.  Edgy is a minor downgrade, even in stable.
[01:20] <tainter> lol
[01:21] <asc> aeropixie: Yeah, that's worth a try.  I'll just try 6.10 install two more times, then get a dapper CD.
[01:21] <linxeh> tainter: most unix channels automatically ban you if you do
[01:21] <tainter> uh-oh
[01:21] <tainter> one moment
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> rhY^3: i didn't suggst Vista wasn't a downgrade, what I suggested, is you're nuts for suggesting a BETA version of a completely new OS, to someone who will have no clue how to fix a problem should they encounter one
[01:21] <aeropixie> asc: yeah, the dapper livecd is the perfect version, it always works perfectly.
[01:21] <Kazol> kurtkraut: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12419/
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> obviosly reading comprehension has failed you
[01:21] <acoward> I'm going to switch from JDK5 to JDK6... should I uninstall jdk5 first?
[01:21] <asc> !upgrade > asc
[01:21] <chris3435> how do i see a artist or album column in nautilus for mp3's
[01:22] <blanky> hey guys I rar'ed a huge file on windows into multiple rar files, how can I extract it as a whole in linux?
[01:22] <mihailo> indygunfreak: i used automatix because the regular method didnt work. the driver is installed and its the same as paradroids
[01:22] <rhY^3> IGF: It's a damned solid beta in my experience. :D
[01:22] <asc> !upgrade | asc
[01:22] <asc> Eh, one of them.
[01:22] <paradroid> mihailo: On the other hand, I do not have a TV card in my machine...
[01:22] <IndyGunFreak> mihailo: automatix is the devil
[01:22] <KurtKraut> Kazol, let me check... when X does not start, do you know how to edit a file using only the terminal ?
[01:22] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: doesn't work.  say's "ping: unknown host 3pixelnet.com"
[01:22] <dave> hello, i installed the w32codecs and m-player, it starts to load the mplayer and corrresponding wmfile, but then stops and closes window. I read all the wikis etc and am aware of the restricted status etc. Can you provide further help?
[01:22] <aeropixie> !upgrade
[01:22] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:22] <tainter_> ok no more root :)
[01:22] <jimmygoon> dave what kind of file? wmv?
[01:22] <mihailo> paradroid: i also dont have a tv card, but i want to use the s-video tv out on my geforce :)
[01:22] <IndyGunFreak> !worksforme | rhY^3
[01:22] <ubotu> rhY^3: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[01:23] <jimmygoon> mihailo, have you tried EasyUbuntu?
[01:23] <paradroid> mihailo: Oh, ok. I have a GeForce 6600... don't even know if it has a video out. :/
[01:23] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: DNS issue then
[01:23] <dave> jimmygoon, standard one on net
[01:23] <tainter_> why would i be banned if i was root?
[01:23] <IndyGunFreak> jimmygoon: easyubuntu is awful
[01:23] <Bluedog> interesting
[01:23] <Bluedog> 1sec
[01:23] <jimmygoon> IndyGunFreak, really? what makes you say that?
[01:23] <IndyGunFreak> jimmygoon: experience
[01:23] <Zaiden> I'm afraid to restart. I know I'll get an X error again.
[01:23] <jimmygoon> dave, there are tens.... wmv, mpeg, avi, divx3,4,etc
[01:23] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: so can you suggest a fix?
[01:23] <dave> jimmygoon: ctv.ca for example
[01:23] <rhY^3> *sigh*
[01:24] <mihailo> paradroid: as far as i see it, it needs to be added in xorg.conf
[01:24] <IndyGunFreak> jimmygoon: just follow the FAQ, and install using traditional methods
[01:24] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: is it all set to DHCP / auto detect in system : admin: networking?
[01:24] <tainter_> nvm, just read about it
[01:24] <asc> Meh, wish Ubuntu could do a net install.
[01:24] <cafuego_> tainter_: being on irc as root increases your changed of changing nicknames to tainted_
[01:24] <mihailo> paradroid: the ubuntu wiki method didnt work, and i cant find anyone knowlegable enough to edit it for me
[01:24] <paradroid> mihailo: Yes, unfortunately not all settings can be achieved via GUI and xorg.conf needs a lot of tweaking sometimes.
[01:24] <cafuego_> s/changed/chances/
[01:24] <jimmygoon> IndyGunFreak, I agree. I was just trying to throw something out since mihailo was having troubles
[01:24] <KurtKraut> Kazol, when X does not start, do you know how to edit a file using only the terminal ?
[01:24] <Kazol> kurtkraut: I have no idea. I installed Nvidia before, somehow. There is a much easier way.
[01:24] <aeropixie> jimmygoon: easyubuntu and automatix both cuase more issues thatn solutions, easyubuntu is better, but alpha quality. Just install via terminal, there are plenty of nice manuals. Google "13 things to do after installing ubuntu" and you will get one that give instructions for quite a few.
[01:24] <jimmygoon> dave, lemme take a look
[01:24] <jimmygoon> aeropixie, seem my msg to IndyGunFreak above...
[01:24] <IndyGunFreak> jimmygoon: most likely, easybuntu would jus tmake it worse
[01:24] <rhY^3> I would recommend the Feisty beta over stable ubuntu because John Q. Public will be able to install real drivers and other things more easily.
[01:25] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: yep, it is.  thanks for the help btw.
[01:25] <Bluedog> np
[01:25] <aeropixie> jimmygoon: saw it after i pressed enter, sorry.
[01:25] <dave> jimmygoon: k thanks
[01:25] <Bluedog> hmmm
[01:25] <jimmygoon> IndyGunFreak, thanks for the heads up
[01:25] <mihailo> paradroid: looks like im stuck with dual booting for now :)
[01:25] <KurtKraut> Kazol, notice the line: Driver "nv" ... if you change "nv" to "nvidia" you will force the nvidia driver to load.
[01:25] <c-cuatro> hola..
[01:25] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: I know the issue is your box isnt resolving domain names, but not sure how to fix it.. maybe someone else can help.. sorry :)
[01:25] <rhY^3> And I would definitely recommend Feisty over Vista.  Nobody I know had an easy time setting up Vista, or got all their hardware to work.
[01:25] <c-cuatro> alguien sabe el nombre del cana Tuquito-Linux?
[01:26] <maz> Hi All, I'm still on Dapper and just wondering whether the upgrades to Edgy/Feisty are significantly better?
[01:26] <jimmygoon> dave, I don't mean to be repetitive (I don't know what you've done so far) but have you installed all the stuff in the codecs section on ubuntuguide.org?
[01:26] <cafuego_> !es
[01:26] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:26] <KurtKraut> Kazol, but, of course, if something still wrong, it wont open you X session. It would be nice if you learn how to edit files using a pure terminal so you could change it back to "nv"
[01:26] <paradroid> mihailo: Sorry I couldn't be of any help here...
[01:26] <c-cuatro> danke
[01:26] <Kazol> kurtkraut: So should I try it?
[01:26] <rhY^3> maz: It's a matter of opinion (apparently), but I would give it a resounding yes.
[01:26] <KurtKraut> Kazol, only if you will be able to set back to "nv" if things get worse.
[01:26] <mihailo> paradroid: thanks for trying, I seem to be the only one here to use the computer with my tv
[01:26] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: ok.  thanks.
[01:26] <maz> thanks rhY^3
[01:26] <paradroid> mihailo: ;)
[01:26] <IndyGunFreak> rhY^3: its not a matter of opinion, its common sense
[01:27] <KurtKraut> Kazol, do you know how to move files using the 'mv' command ?
[01:27] <dave> jimmygoon: yes
[01:27] <Bluedog> eNons3nse:
[01:27] <Kazol> kurtkraut: kind of
[01:27] <Bluedog> on the same tab, click dns
[01:27] <Bluedog> the same window, different tab rather
[01:27] <maz> rhY^3 and IndyGunFreak what is so much better about it?
[01:27] <asc> maz: I thought the upgrade to Edgy was good, but a lot of people say it's less stable.  I didn't have any stability problems, myself.
[01:27] <eNons3nse> Ok
[01:27] <paradroid> mihailo: I would often like to send the video signal from my machine to my TV, too... ;)
[01:27] <jimmygoon> dave, are you dead set on mplayer? I have NEVER gotten the mozilla mplayer package to work, though many others have... I finally got everything working with totem totem-mozilla and all the codecs
[01:27] <maz> thanks asc
[01:27] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: do you see anything listed under dns servers?
[01:27] <needhelp> Can someone name a DVD burning program that lets me backup (shrink and burn) my 8Gig DVD's to my 4GB DVD-R ?
[01:27] <asc> Well, at least until it exploded due to disk problems. ;p
[01:27] <Bluedog> It autodetected the 2 for my ISP.. but maybe yours didnt
[01:28] <IndyGunFreak> maz: its not whats better/worse, its that its still beta, what happens if you run into a problem, and for some reason cant' boot?  Are you experienced enough with t terminal to somehow get a working system?
[01:28] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: 3 addresses.
[01:28] <maz> lol asc
[01:28] <KurtKraut> Kazol, what would be easy is... coping the actual xorg.conf file with the "nv" setting to a file called something like 'xorg.conf.backup' and then edit the current xorg.conf to set "nvidia" in the Driver field
[01:28] <ant-> maz: download the live cd and just try it without installing it.
[01:28] <paradroid> OK, I'll try and get DV-grabbed files readable for a Windows machine. Still: what codec would be the closest to losless compressed video?
[01:28] <maz> good ideas ant- and IndyGunFreak
[01:28] <mihailo> paradroid: x264
[01:28] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: should i compare this list to the one in my working ubuntu box?
[01:28] <KurtKraut> Kazol, then, restart your X. If something goes wrong, you can delete the current xorg.conf file and then use 'mv' to rename the xorg.conf.backup file (with "nv") to xorg.conf again
[01:28] <Kazol> kurtkraut: if something happens, I'll find out howto edit files on my other windows computer.
[01:28] <KurtKraut> Kazol, so everything will be reset to your current configs.
[01:29] <paradroid> mihailo: Really? I know it does a very good job at compressing with nice quality but I need the files to be editable to go on a DVD later...
[01:29] <dave_> jimmygoon: i can try it
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> maz: if you want to try it, try it, but id' recommend against installng it,.
[01:29] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: yeah
[01:29] <Bluedog> it should match obv..
[01:29] <Kazol> kurtkraut: to restart x, do I press ctrl+alt+backspace?
[01:29] <c-cuatro> hello again, sorry but i can locate de ubuntu-es channel... somebody can help me?
[01:29] <maz> ok Indy... is this for Edgy or Feisty?
[01:29] <KurtKraut> Kazol, but it is important to you test a proceeding to edit/manage this files BEFORE trying to boot up with the "nvidia" settings
[01:29] <jimmygoon> dave_, would you give it a quick try... I will look for stuff in the meantime
[01:29] <KurtKraut> Kazol, yes
[01:29] <mihailo> paradroid: oh... for that, i guess you're stuck with mpeg2
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> maz: feisty... Edgy is final and stable... it should be no issue.
[01:30] <mihailo> x264 eats too much processor power for that
[01:30] <mihailo> and i dont know if video tools support it
[01:30] <xtknight> What facilities are available for controlling CPU frequency scaling (Intel EIST) on a Core 2 Duo under Ubuntu?
[01:30] <maz> ok IndyGunFreak.  I vaguely remember once that people recommend against skipping a release... is that right?
[01:30] <ant-> maz : or you could google for some feisty bugs and see if they will affect you in any way.
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> maz: it doesn't really matter..., are you upgrading or doing a clean install?
[01:30] <Kazol> kurtkraut: once I change to "nvidia", do I restart X or try to install the driver again?
[01:30] <maz> upgrading IndyGunFreak
[01:30] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: nothing in there matches.  is it maybe because I installed ubuntu on this laptop while I was on the connection at work?  If i copied the addresses on this list to my laptop would it be ok?
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> maz: ok, in that case,you shouldn't skip...
[01:31] <mihailo> sooo.... anyone here knowlegable about xorg willing to help me write a config file? :)
[01:31] <maz> LiveCD might be the way to go
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> maz: what do you havenow?. dapper?
[01:31] <xtknight> mihailo: sure
[01:31] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: sounds very likely to me
[01:31] <maz> Dapper IndyGunFreak
[01:31] <Bluedog> it should really have rededected them at home
[01:31] <PhreeStyle> did anyone else lose their wallpaper when they did the latest evolution update?
[01:31] <Bluedog> but it makes sense to copy working settings over regardless
[01:31] <KurtKraut> Kazol, the driver is already installed. The driver itself is the nvidia-glx package. But it is only turned on when "nvidia" is set in xorg.conf
[01:31] <ant-> maz: you cant skip edgy unless you clean install anyways
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> maz: personally, i'd just go with Edgy for now, back up all important stuff, etc, make sure you have a working live CD should there be a problem
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> etc.
[01:31] <maz> cool IndyGunFreak - I'll give that a go
[01:31] <Kazol> kurtkraut: ok, I'll try it!
[01:32] <KurtKraut> Kazol, just for a recheck, type in terminal: sudo aptitude search nvidia-glx linux-restricted-modules
[01:32] <xtknight> !EasySource
[01:32] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[01:32] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: so the DHCP setting should have made it copy this stuff on it's own right?  but it didn't?
[01:32] <dave_> jimmygoon: okay
[01:32] <KurtKraut> Kazol, and paste it to me thru http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ again
[01:32] <jimmygoon> dave_, lemme know how it goes
[01:32] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: The pc should have autodetected it from the network, yes, thats the normal case
[01:32] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: so I should make a 2nd profile for home & work.
[01:32] <mihailo> xtknight: can i pm you about it?
[01:32] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: guess it got confused..
[01:33] <xtknight> mihailo: why not just talk here?
[01:33] <kupesoft> Is there anyway to have NetworkManager ignore a given device? I have two wireless devices and I want to have NetworkManager leave one alone (for monitor mode).
[01:33] <mihailo> ok, it gets a bit hard to read, thats all
[01:33] <Zaiden> I think the drivers were installed for my card, but I can't go past 1024x768 for my resolution anymore.
[01:33] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: you could, but I can't see why it didnt auto detect...
[01:33] <Kazol> kurtkraut: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12421/
[01:33] <KurtKraut> Kazol, paste to me here: uname -a
[01:33] <mihailo> xtknight: so... i need to have a xorg.conf for my monitor and tv
[01:33] <bill_> anyone have any clue what would cause files to end up on the disk with a bit flipped?
[01:34] <ant-> Zaiden : do you have a intel 915?
[01:34] <mihailo> xtknight: and i only need the tv to duplicate the monitor picture
[01:34] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: ifup eth0
[01:34] <Kazol> kurtkraut: Linux RN-Desktop 2.6.15-26-386 #1 PREEMPT Thu Aug 3 02:52:00 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:34] <Bluedog> you can try that command if you dont want to do it manually
[01:34] <mihailo> xtknight: i have a geforce 6800 with a tv out
[01:34] <Bluedog> which should force a renew
[01:34] <hobs> Does anyone know the directory that the nvidia intaller backs up your previous x settings to is
[01:34] <hobs> I know it adds a date and time
[01:34] <KurtKraut> Kazol, the needed packages are properly installed. You're ready to go :P
[01:34] <Zaiden> ant-: Not as my graphics card, but I think thats close to my onBoard
[01:34] <hobs> but just the directory above it
[01:34] <xtknight> mihailo: ok are you using the 'nvidia' drivers or the 'nv'..
[01:35] <soundray> hobs: is it not in /etc/X11 ?
[01:35] <mihailo> xtknight: nvidia
[01:35] <jimmygoon> mihailo, if it helps you can type the first few letters of the user name you are wanting to address and then hit <TAB> and it autocompletes it
[01:35] <Kazol> kurtkraut: Ok, I'll try it! Thanks very much for your help.
[01:35] <NkZ> Greetings guys
[01:35] <hobs> let me check :)
[01:35] <ant-> Zaiden : ok, i have a 915 and that problem was easy to fix for me.
[01:35] <xtknight> mihailo: does 'nvidia-settings' help you?
[01:35] <KurtKraut> Kazol, you're welcome
[01:35] <hobs> it is!
[01:35] <hobs> thank you soundray
[01:35] <NkZ> Could you please tell ubotu to give me the link to install the nvidia drivers on my PC?
[01:35] <paradroid> mihailo: Did you try this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/nv-tv-out/
[01:35] <paradroid> mihailo: I guess you did...
[01:35] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: ok, thanks.  i'll try this real quick.
[01:35] <KurtKraut> NkZ, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:35] <soundray> !nvidia > NkZ
[01:35] <soundray> !msgthebot > NkZ
[01:36] <mihailo> xtknight: under display device, it just lists my monitor, and i cant find an option to add the tv
[01:36] <hobs> do you know any reason why one day the nvidia install would work, and then the next day it would say my hardware is imcompatible?
[01:36] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: no worries :)
[01:36] <KurtKraut> hobs, over what version of Ubuntu ?
[01:36] <mihailo> paradroid: i tried it but it looks like its not compatible with my card, it says it cant find it
[01:36] <hobs> I installed the nvidia drivers off their website and they worked like a charm, and then 2 reboots later it tells me I have no nvidia compatible hardwre
[01:36] <hobs> 6.10
[01:36] <Zaiden> Maybe 1024x768 is the hightest my card can go.
[01:36] <xtknight> mihailo: did you force tv detection?
[01:36] <NkZ> Sorry, Did I abuse of the bot?
[01:36] <hobs> I think it may be that I hav a 6150 go which is a not much used card
[01:37] <mihailo> xtknight: how do i do that?
[01:37] <xtknight> mihailo: wish i could tell you but i dont have nvidia-setings up right now
[01:37] <KurtKraut> hobs, over a Edgy's fresh install ?
[01:37] <needhelp> Can someone name a DVD burning program that lets me backup (shrink and burn) my 8Gig DVD's to my 4GB DVD-R ?
[01:37] <Kazol> kurtkraut: Ok, nvidia is working. I'll also remove the logo from the logfile after.
[01:37] <soundray> NkZ: no, I just wanted you to know that you can instruct the bot yourself
[01:37] <xtknight> mihailo: just assume the tv is a secondary mointor, maybe youll get somewhere then
[01:37] <KurtKraut> Kazol, I'm glad to hear that :P
[01:37] <hobs> yeah
[01:37] <hobs> completely fresh
[01:37] <KurtKraut> Kazol, mainly because of this problem, you had to deal with config files. Now you've learned a bit of 'hacking' over linux
[01:37] <NkZ> soundray: Oh, Thanks. :-) I rather ask the ops, you know, just to be safe.
[01:38] <paradroid> mihailo: Hm. There is this other hint on a German forum saying: using the proprietary driver, have TV attached using S-VHS, stop X-server, remove computer monitor cable, type in (without seeing it) startx
[01:38] <soundray> NkZ: sorry for the confusion
[01:38] <paradroid> mihailo: Sorry for the average translation. ;)
[01:38] <hobs> I am a total noob and was just installing things one by one, edgy, then graphics drivers, graphics drivers being the thing that keeps crashing my system
[01:38] <NkZ> You know, this "Murphy" guy is in deep love with me and loves to freak up things around me. :-P
[01:38] <KurtKraut> Kazol, things weren't working as expected and we've forced it to work by changing files :P That is usually impossible in other systems
[01:38] <hobs> I am also getting some error about a microcode thing that is very long
[01:38] <mihailo> xtknight: there is no add monitor, nor force tv anywhere
[01:38] <Zaiden> is there a way I can go into /etx/X11/xorg.conf and change the settings to have a higher resolution?
[01:38] <KurtKraut> hobs, and how are you installing you graphics driver ?
[01:39] <hobs> Well I tried: the repositories, automatix, and then finally off the nvidia website
[01:39] <hobs> the website one worked at last
[01:39] <hobs> (and then didnt)
[01:39] <soundray> Zaiden: it's easiest if you go through
[01:39] <mihailo> paradroid: hmm that looks like it would switch the picture onto the tv, but i need them both at the same time
[01:39] <soundray> Zaiden: it's easiest if you go through 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[01:39] <paradroid> Everyone: it seems that graphics problems are really a BIG problem. Ubuntu needs to somehow get that solved (although I know it's the cards vendors).
[01:39] <Kazol> kurtkraut: I realize that! I've finally converted to Linux. I am experienced in Windows but Linux was completely different. I'll try memorizing config file locations and commands.
[01:39] <KurtKraut> hobs, you might have better results if you follow the official instructions from Ubuntu to install a driver.
[01:40] <Zaiden> soundray: I tried that once, and I think I screwed up.
[01:40] <Zaiden> I didn't know some of the answers
[01:40] <hobs> ok I will check the website kurtkraut
[01:40] <mihailo> naah, it's mostly the lack of a good xorg settings gui
[01:40] <dave_> where is the source list file?
[01:40] <KurtKraut> hobs, for nvidia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:40] <soundray> Zaiden: if you're not sure, just accept the defaults. Even if they're empty
[01:40] <Zaiden> ok
[01:40] <soundray> dave_ /etc/apt/
[01:40] <paradroid> mihailo: I guess that's what the person was looking for: using the TV as the only output... can't find anything else that might be useful.
[01:40] <dave_> soundray: thanks
[01:41] <mihailo> paradroid: thanks for trying, i have tried a lot of forum settings, but all of them crash x
[01:41] <soundray> mihailo: nvidia?
[01:41] <mihailo> soundray:  nvidia what?
[01:41] <soundray> mihailo: never mind
[01:42] <mihailo> ok, im going to try to uninstall nvidia and reinstall without automatix, but i have a funny feeling ill get a xorg crash
[01:42] <soundray> mihailo: so you are using nvidia
[01:43] <hobs> kurtkraut, when it says the lspci | grep -i nvidia prints out a line of text, mine prints out like 30
[01:43] <IndyGunFreak> mihailo: backup xorg
[01:43] <Camaxtli> What was the command for checking the size of a directory again?
[01:43] <soundray> mihailo: read the readme in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/
[01:43] <soundray> Camaxtli: du
[01:43] <mihailo> indygunfreak: that part i learned the hard way :)))
[01:43] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:43] <jimmygoon> dave_, how did the totem trial go?
[01:43] <Camaxtli> soundray: Danke
[01:43] <soundray> Camaxtli: gern
[01:44] <KurtKraut> hobs, try typing nVidia (with capital V)
[01:44] <paradroid> mihailo: What was your card type again?
[01:44] <hobs> same thing
[01:44] <mihailo> 6800 LE
[01:44] <soundray> KurtKraut: won't make a diff if -i is used
[01:44] <hobs> I have like 30 nvidia components n here
[01:44] <mobomelter> hey how do i see what busid my video card has?
[01:44] <soundray> mobomelter: with lspci
[01:44] <mihailo> ok, im gonna try reinstalling... see youn in a little while
[01:45] <mobomelter> thank you
[01:45] <hobs> ata controller usb contoller pci bridge high def audio
[01:45] <hobs> etc etc etc
[01:45] <KurtKraut> soundray, oh, that's right.
[01:45] <KurtKraut> hobs, paste everything in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[01:46] <mihailo> wohoo uninstalled the driver. can someone give me the link to the nvidia instructions
[01:46] <mihailo> the driver installation instructions?
[01:47] <hobs> How do I select everything :) I am in the CLI
[01:47] <soundray> hobs: use the mouse to select, paste with the middle button
[01:47] <hobs> CLI means I have no mouse
[01:47] <hobs> command line interface
[01:47] <harpette> mihailo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Video
[01:47] <hobs> I have no gui
[01:48] <hobs> I am in text mode
[01:48] <soundray> hobs: then you should say virtual console :)
[01:48] <hobs> oh sorry
[01:48] <hobs> I am in virtual console mode
[01:48] <KurtKraut> hobs, search for the line starting with 'VGA compatible controller'
[01:48] <hobs> yes I have that
[01:49] <robbiev> How come I cannot find the wine package through apt-cache? I'm running feisty beta
[01:49] <hobs> Vga compatible controller: nVidia corp c51 PCI express bridge (rev a2)
[01:49] <soundray> robbiev: feisty questions in #ubuntu+1 please. Note no wine in amd64
[01:49] <hobs> sorry if this is a little slow, I am on another computer typing this
[01:50] <robbiev> soundray, that is helpful. Thank you. Why is there not wine packages for am64?
[01:50] <KurtKraut> hobs, this output is wierd for me. This is the onliest line with 'VGA compatible controller' ?
[01:50] <Slart> robbiev: there is no compiled package for amd64.. but you can force install the i386 package and it will work nicely
[01:50] <soundray> robbiev: because 64 bit wine is lagging behind 32bit development.
[01:50] <hobs> tes
[01:50] <hobs> yes
[01:50] <robbiev> Slart, ok, that is helpful thankyou
[01:50] <hobs> it is kurtkraut
[01:50] <robbiev> soundray, i understand. Thanks
[01:51] <void^> there isn't much 64bit windows software available anyway
[01:51] <KurtKraut> soundray, have you seen his lspci output ? This is wierd for me.
[01:51] <KurtKraut> soundray, hobs output
[01:51] <Slart> robbiev: I dont know the exact reason for the lack of packaging for the amd64.. but I remember trying to compile it myself and having all sorts of problems with missing libraries and stuff.. perhaps something it depends on isn't available for amd64
[01:51] <Frog29> hi, can someone help me mount a drive on the livecd..... i'm sorta new to linux :)
[01:51] <mindstate> postfix
[01:51] <soundray> KurtKraut: what is it that strikes you as weird?
[01:51] <harpette> i downloaded some artwork and installed it via GNOME Art, apparently it put all that stuff under my personal ~/.gnome2/gnome-art . i would like to make that stuff available system-wide. Which directory should i move those ~/.gnome2/gnome-art/download/backgrounds/ files to, please?
[01:51] <mikebeecham> Hi there, I've not long been using Ubuntu, and I wondered whether anyone could tell me if I can change the way that windows minimize?  I really dont like the way they shrink down to the taskbar
[01:52] <Slart> mikebeecham: you using beryl? or just plain gnome?
[01:52] <mikebeecham> gnome
[01:52] <robbiev> Slart, I'm on ftp.ubuntu.com, but cannot find packages. Can you reccomend a site?
[01:52] <harpette> Frog29: mkdir /mnt/thingy && mount -t ext2|3 /dev/hdx /mnt/thingy
[01:52] <Slart> mikebeecham: then I can't really help you.. haven't been messing with gnome that much =/
[01:52] <mikebeecham> Slart: the egde of the window remains, then shrinks down to the taskbar
[01:52] <Frog29> oh... i need the ext3?
[01:52] <Frog29> ok
[01:52] <Odd_Bloke> If I'm looking to install Ubuntu without X, do I want the alternate CD?
[01:52] <hobs> the entire line says 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a2) kurt kraut
[01:52] <KurtKraut> soundray, 'nVidia corp c51 PCI' ,,, this is not listed as a supported card: http://http.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8762/README/appendix-a.html
[01:53] <Slart> robbiev: hmm.. hold on.. I'll give you an url.. where in the world are you?
[01:53] <harpette> Frog29: it depends what filesystem is on the partition you wanna mount
[01:53] <byen> Hello. We tried installing Ubuntu on a laptop that was preinstalled with Vista. Now it does not boot. Installed just ubuntu on it. But i have another laptop that has the same hardware.. is there anything that i can do to not let ubuntu mbr effect vista
[01:53] <hobs> I apologize for the abbreviation
[01:53] <mikebeecham> I have beryl installed, but there's a couple of things on there that I dont like...so I've stopped using it for now
[01:53] <robbiev> Slart, us
[01:53] <Frog29> harpette - so would this work? mount /dev/sda3 -t ext3 /mnt/old
[01:53] <adrian_hu> Odd_Bloke: get the Server version then thats a minimal install without X
[01:54] <harpette> byen: did you make room for linux? or did you install over Vista?
[01:54] <Slart> robbiev: running feisty=
[01:54] <Frog29> i did mnake the dir
[01:54] <Slart> ?
[01:54] <KurtKraut> hobs, the thing is... I can't list your graphics card in the supported list: http://http.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8762/README/appendix-a.html
[01:54] <robbiev> Slart, yep
[01:54] <soundray> KurtKraut: sorry, I can't really help
[01:54] <KurtKraut> soundray, me neither
[01:54] <eduhat> how do i create a root user?
[01:54] <harpette> Frog29: lokks OK
[01:54] <Frog29> k....
[01:54] <KurtKraut> hobs, try asking for help in ubuntuforums.org
[01:54] <Odd_Bloke> adrian_hu: Cheers.
[01:54] <crafton> Ubuntu
[01:54] <soundray> eduhat: you don't. Ubuntu is designed to be used with sudo
[01:54] <hobs> GeForce 6150 	0x0240
[01:54] <eduhat> allright
[01:54] <hobs> I have a 6150
[01:54] <soundray> eduhat: btw, root exists, but the account is locked
[01:55] <hobs> I know that is the card in this laptop
[01:55] <adrian_hu> sudo passwd root
[01:55] <eduhat> allright, then what is the password when i sudo?
[01:55] <eduhat> my normal pass?
[01:55] <soundray> eduhat: yes
[01:55] <KurtKraut> hobs, so you have to install the nvidia-glx package, not the nvidia-glx-legacy
[01:55] <grim> im edgy, i just installed talk by inetd isn't firing it up.  according to dpkg, inetd isn't installed, do i need to install inetd or is something else handling what inetd usually does?
[01:55] <hobs> I did
[01:55] <Slart> robbiev: here are the official builds http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/pool/main/w/wine/
[01:55] <mihailo> I just wanted to say 'Thank you!' to you guy's! I Finally got it working!
[01:55] <Frog29> harpette- it says special device /dev/sda3/ does  not exist
[01:55] <soundray> adrian_hu: please don't give that advice. Ubuntu is designed for use with sudo for administration.
[01:55] <byen> harpette: Made partition using vista's shrink tool. Installed ubuntu on the new drive but there is something abt installing Grub into the mbr that is ruining it. least that i what i got reading various posts
[01:55] <Frog29> harpette - a path name is not a dricetory?
[01:55] <Slart> robbiev:  I don't see anything for feisty.. but perhaps you can try the one for edgy... (6.10)
[01:55] <mihailo> At last I can ditch Windows
[01:55] <hobs> that was what I tried off the repository, and it failed ;_;
[01:56] <KurtKraut> hobs, but did you installed the PROPER linux-restricted-modules ?
[01:56] <harpette> Frog29: do a fdisk -l /dev/sda
[01:56] <robbiev> Slart, ok.. thanks
[01:56] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: that didn't work either.  Do you think it may be a problem with the ethernet card built into the laptop?  i mean, it works fine on my work connection.  that's the only other place i
[01:56] <eNons3nse> 've tried it
[01:56] <hobs> yes, it said they were already installed
[01:56] <eduhat> can someone give me a link to the package system for ubuntu? i need to search for a package
[01:56] <Bluedog> I don't think so, I think its a configuration problem somewhere on there
[01:56] <MatthewV> eduhat, packages.ubuntu.com
[01:56] <Bluedog> did you try manually inputting the addresses eNons3nse?
[01:56] <Frog29> harpette... i didn, but nothing happened
[01:56] <adrian_hu> soundray: designed or not sudo is just slowing down my work.
[01:56] <Slart> robbiev: perhaps you could ask the people in #ubuntu+1 . They know a bit more about feisty and it's buddies
[01:56] <Frog29> *did
[01:57] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: yep.
[01:57] <harpette> byen: did Grub make a special entry for Windows in /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[01:57] <mikebeecham> Does anyone know how I can stop Beryl and it's icon from loading at startup?
[01:57] <grim> eduhat: try apt-cache search from a term
[01:57] <Bluedog> eNons3nse: I'm not sure then I'm afraid, sorry :(
[01:57] <byen> yup
[01:57] <hobs> the weirdness is kurtkraut, that it was working great yesterday, I could see a huge preformance increase in firefox and such, and today it does not
[01:57] <MatthewV> mikebeecham, go to System --> Preferences --> Session and disable the beryl startup item
[01:57] <robbiev> Slart, ok thanks
[01:57] <byen> vista boots and then nothing.. Hangs @ harpette
[01:57] <harpette> Frog29: then perhaps you don't have a /dev/sda
[01:57] <KurtKraut> hobs, did you have a kernel upgrade recently ?
[01:57] <harpette> Frog29: try sdb ?
[01:57] <eduhat> how would install hostap-source
[01:57] <mikebeecham> MatthewV: Yer a star mate...thanks
[01:57] <soundray> adrian_hu: still, you don't need to propagate your way. See also !worksforme
[01:58] <Frog29> k....
[01:58] <eduhat> it says it cant find package
[01:58] <dave_> once i install w32codecs and mozilla mplayer with firefox plugin, i should be able to see windows medai files on the net right? For example ctv.ca
[01:58] <soundray> adrian_hu: btw, have you tried sudo -i ?
[01:58] <Frog29> harpette - no dice
[01:58] <eNons3nse> Bluedog: if i wasn't switching the cable from computer to computer, but had 2 separate ones do you think it would matter?
[01:58] <harpette> byen: try booting vista in maintenance mode (or similar)?
[01:58] <SublimelyHowl> mmkay, how the heck do I set up DSL?
[01:58] <Smerity> dave_, with w32codecs yes it shouldn't be a problem
[01:58] <hobs> What I hav done so far kurtkraut, is start ubuntu, run the updates, run automatix to install a few proprietary codecs, then install the graphics drivers, in that order
[01:58] <hobs> after that I went to sleep
[01:58] <harpette> Frog29: what makes you think you have a /dev/sdx in your machine?
[01:59] <KurtKraut> hobs, automatix is not reliable.
[01:59] <soundray> eduhat: you need to enable universe. Read ubotu's private message please
[01:59] <soundray> !universe > eduhat
[01:59] <aeropixie> Excuse me, i am trying to install affinity search, and I am having troubel configuring the tar. Does anyone know the address of the repo that affinity-beagle and affinity-tracker are on?
[01:59] <KurtKraut> hobs, and is widely related to system crash/failure/malfunction
[01:59] <Frog29> harpette - i did when i installed ubuntu.....
[01:59] <dave_> Smerity: been struggling for awhile and read all ubuntuguide.org and all wikis on net
[01:59] <tkooda> can anyone tell me why `screen` in dapper refuses to display ansi chars?  (just rxvt: http://devsec.org/tmp/term-rxvt.jpg , rxvt+screen: http://devsec.org/tmp/term-screen.jpg )
[01:59] <byen> harpette: now the issue is not to fix vista but to carefully install ubuntu on the other laptop. this one has no recovery cd .. no cd was provided my the manufacturer
[01:59] <Frog29> harpette - and i checked hda as well, it jsut doens't do anything, remember thsi is a live cd
[01:59] <hobs> kurtkraut, I have had the same problem with the nvidia installs in the past without automatix
[01:59] <Frog29> harpette - am i doing something wrong with the /dev/
[01:59] <Bluedog> I ran a program with the -d flag to detach the console.. how do i reattach to stop it, without using kill?
[01:59] <Smerity> dave_, so exactly what's your issue now? And can you throw me a site that isn't working? I had issues with WMVs earlier and fixed it, hopefully we can do the same here
[02:00] <hobs> this is the first time I have used them
[02:00] <dave_> Smerity: ctv.ca
[02:00] <hobs> it*
[02:00] <Smerity> dave_, will just go test, won't be a second
[02:00] <kaushal> Hi
[02:00] <dave_> Smerity: try a video there, it uses windows media player
[02:00] <adrian_hu> soundray yes tried it NOW thanks for the advice, :P.
[02:00] <kaushal> sudo cp test.doc /var/www/minitest/
[02:00] <kaushal> I get cp: cannot stat `test.doc': Permission denied
[02:00] <harpette> byen: if a pre-loaded Windows machine does not come with a CD, there should be an app in Windows to create one, just for your system. Warning: it'll let you do that only once. So you may want to apply all the updates to Windows before making the CD disks
[02:01] <soundray> adrian_hu: if you want to mend your ways :)  you can run 'sudo passwd -l' to lock your root account for login.
[02:01] <Pelo> kaushal,  do you have the correct password ?  caps lock maybe ?
[02:01] <kaushal> nope
[02:01] <Frog29> harpette - is there any way to just see every drive form the livecd?
[02:01] <SublimelyHowl> More accurately, how can I find the IP address of my DSL router?
[02:01] <harpette> Frog29: live CD or not, it should detect all your drives in your system, but not mount them indeed.
[02:01] <Frog29> hmmmmm
[02:01] <KurtKraut> hobs, paste to me the result of: uname -a
[02:02] <Pelo> kaushal,  are you the user who created that file ?
[02:02] <kaushal> yeah
[02:02] <soundray> Frog29: in a terminal type 'sudo fdisk -l'
[02:02] <kaushal> I get $ sudo cp test.doc /var/www/minitest/
[02:02] <Pelo> very odd
[02:02] <kaushal> cp: cannot stat `test.doc': Permission denied
[02:02] <Frog29> k
[02:02] <kaushal> $
[02:02] <pooya> what are the default groups for a user in ubuntu?
[02:02] <KurtKraut> hobs, I'm interested in the thrid word that appears in this command
[02:02] <pooya> I meesed up my group memberships... :(
[02:02] <Frog29> soundray - it prints out /dev/sda1, etc.
[02:02] <coldboot> What's a practical way to get a 2.6.18 kernel on Ubuntu Edgy?
[02:03] <Frog29> 1-8
[02:03] <Smerity> dave_, getting video, no sound here, though that may be only as I had installed essentials - so where are you at so far - have you installed mplayer mozilla plugin and w32codecs?
[02:03] <Mirth> I was reading up on Kubuntu, and it says once you install it, you can choose between Ubuntu and Kubuntu.  How easy is it to "choose"?
[02:03] <soundray> Frog29: it shows all partitions on all drives that were recognized by the kernel.
[02:03] <dave_> Smerity: yes
[02:03] <hobs> Linux hobs-laptop 2.6.17-11-generic #2 SMP Thu Feb 1 19:52:28 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux  (it does say generic)
[02:03] <ribas> Why is git-core so old on ubuntu feisty????
[02:03] <Frog29> soundray ok....... but then how do i mount sda2?
[02:03] <MatthewV> aeropixie, there is a guide at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=385981 that may help
[02:03] <aeropixie> thanks.
[02:03] <dave_> Smerity: maybe i have to create a link in the plugins folder in firefox
[02:03] <soundray> Mirth: once you've installed the packages, it's an option you select on the login screen
[02:04] <Frog29> soundrat- it says special device /dev/sda3/ does  not exist
[02:04] <Mirth> Ah
[02:04] <soundray> Frog29: drop the trailing /
[02:04] <hobs> so maybe the correct headers were not installed kurtkraut?
[02:04] <Smerity> dave_, haha, sound actually did work, but something went funky on my system - does normal media work with mozilla-mplayer?
[02:04] <eduhat> when i search with the package manager... it still doesnt find the hostap
[02:04] <Mirth> Soundray, can you do the same with Xubuntu, and choose between the three?
[02:04] <Frog29> thanks
[02:04] <Smerity> dave_, once it does I'll throw you the guide to get WMV on Linux
[02:04] <Frog29> soundray- thanks :) so simple.....
[02:04] <harpette> Frog29: then do a sudo "parted /dev/sda print", it'll show you which filesystems are ob which partitions
[02:04] <soundray> Mirth: yes
[02:04] <dave_> Smerity: please do
[02:04] <Mirth> Thanks Soundray
[02:05] <mcscruff> lo all anyone use gtkpod?
[02:05] <Smerity> dave_, http://ubuntuos.wordpress.com/2006/08/01/howto-play-windows-media-video-wmv-in-ubuntu/
[02:05] <Flannel> ribas: It's not.  It's on schedule for Feisty
[02:05] <Frog29> soundray | harpette, thanks for the hlep, i think oi mounted it
[02:05] <KurtKraut> hobs, do you have the package linux-restricted-modules-generic installed ?
[02:05] <hobs>  Linux hobs-laptop 2.6.17-11-generic #2 SMP Thu Feb 1 19:52:28 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux   kurtkraut, sorry to not notify you when I typed it last
[02:05] <Pollywog> mcscruff: I use gtkpod
[02:05] <harpette> Frog29: cool
[02:05] <soundray> eduhat: have you enabled universe?
[02:05] <hobs> how would I check kurtkraut?
[02:05] <Smerity> dave_, I think the links are out of date, but the method still works - just go to mplayer.hq and download the essentials or all codec package
[02:05] <ddillow> I cannot install Ubuntu on my PC, it hangs during startup regardless of version. The only linux cd that will boot is knoppix. The graphic comes up going back and forth then starts. I have a P4, 1 gig of ram, nividia 6600. Can anyone help me out?
[02:05] <eduhat> soundray: i read the page... and i still dont know how to enable
[02:05] <hobs> I am new to virtual console
[02:05] <KurtKraut> hobs, to check that, type: sudo aptitude search linux-restricted-modules-generic ... the letter 'i' should appear in the first column
[02:05] <mcscruff> Pollywog, i clicked delted from disk accidently, do u know if they have all gone or they are on my pc somewhere waiting to be deleted?
[02:06] <soundray> eduhat: go through the page and tell me at what point you find it unclear
[02:06] <ribas> Flannel: feisty is with 1.4.4 ... and the latest is <IP_ADDRESS> and _debian_ unstable is with <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:06] <Pelo> mcscruff,   /home/.trash
[02:06] <Flannel> ribas: I guess they couldve had <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:06] <hobs> yes it does kurtkraut
[02:06] <Pollywog> mcscruff: if you confirmed the delete, they are gone
[02:06] <ddillow> I cannot install Ubuntu on my PC, it hangs during startup regardless of version. The only linux cd that will boot is knoppix. The graphic comes up going back and forth then starts. I have a P4, 1 gig of ram, nividia 6600. Can anyone help me out?
[02:06] <mcscruff> noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[02:06] <mcscruff> :(
[02:06] <dave_> Smerity: k thanks
[02:06] <hobs> i then the name then restricted linux modules for generic kernel and then it goes off the line
[02:06] <KurtKraut> hobs, so the needed packages are properly installed
[02:06] <Pollywog> mcscruff: did you remove from the Ipod?
[02:07] <Flannel> ribas: Feisty froze December 21, <IP_ADDRESS> was released the 20th, so, <IP_ADDRESS> is pretty normal
[02:07] <ticki> hi, i am getting this error message : "ubuntu sudo: can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission denied" i have booted and checked the file visudo and it says it's fine. does anybody know what can i do/
[02:07] <hobs> Ok, well I am glad that I didnt mess that part up :)
[02:07] <Smerity> dave_, once that's done tell me how it goes, would be interested myself. I did the same thing for an Australian news service to get their WMVs working
[02:07] <Mirth> If I have Ubuntu, install Kubuntu, and end up not liking it, can I install it and go back to Ubuntu?
[02:07] <ddillow> Can any one help me with the startup problem I have when installing Ubuntu?
[02:07] <KurtKraut> hobs, you still without X in the problematic machine, right ?
[02:07] <coldboot> If you want to get a 2.6.18 kernel on an Ubuntu Edgy system right now, is the only way to download the kernel sources and roll your own kernel?
[02:07] <Mirth> uninstall*
[02:07] <Pelo> ddillow,  I think in that situation you are meant to use the "alternate install" cd , it's txt base
[02:07] <mcscruff> Pollywog, i put them onto my ipod, but in the wrong bit so i went to delete them from ipod but clicked delete from disk
[02:07] <Pollywog> mcscruff: did you remove from the Ipod or just the playlist?
[02:07] <hobs> yes, x will not start
[02:07] <hobs> the backups do not seem to work kurtkraut
[02:07] <Flannel> Mirth: When you install Kubuntu and Ubuntu, you'll have them both, be able to switch betweeen them at login
[02:07] <ddillow> I've tried that and it wont work either
[02:07] <mcscruff> Pollywog, now they are not on my pc
[02:07] <ddillow> Pelos, I've tried that and it wont work either
[02:07] <Pollywog> mcscruff: they might still be there
[02:08] <soundray> ddillow: describe when and how it hangs
[02:08] <KurtKraut> hobs, let us bring X back to life. Do you know how to edit text files in terminal ?
[02:08] <Pelo> ddillow,  that was my best suggestion
[02:08] <Pollywog> mcscruff: try to copy them from the Ipod
[02:08] <hobs> I got x to work
[02:08] <aeropixie> wheni try to edit /etc/apt/sources.list in nano i get an erros that says my permission is denied. Do i need to do this is sudo somehow?
[02:08] <hobs> right there kurtkraut
[02:08] <Flannel> KurtKraut: nano is probably easiest
[02:08] <Pelo> ddillow,  did you check the forum for your computer model ? there might be a solution there
[02:08] <soundray> hobs: well done!
[02:08] <hobs> it is working1
[02:08] <ticki> so. can anybody help solving the issue with the /etc/sudoers files explained above?
[02:08] <ddillow> In the desktop version, the initial loading screen starts and then suddenly stops after a few seconds
[02:08] <adrian_hu> Mirth I think the only diff between ubuntu and kubuntu is the gnome and kde interface
[02:08] <hobs> hehe1
[02:08] <hobs> thanks soundray :)
[02:08] <mcscruff> Pollywog, they are not on ipod and cant see them on my pc
[02:08] <ddillow> I've also gotten randomly during one try a kernal panic error
[02:09] <ant-> ddillow : are you saying that it goes black after the splash screen?
[02:09] <Pollywog> mcscruff: whether they are really gone depennds on whether you confirmed the delete
[02:09] <hobs> it is definately x without accerleration though kurtkraut :)
[02:09] <ddillow> no it just stops during
[02:09] <KurtKraut> hobs, nice :P
[02:09] <ddillow> completely
[02:09] <mcscruff> Pollywog, i think i did
[02:09] <nedge> hey, how's it goin...
[02:09] <Pelo> ticki,  try  sudo chmod 755  /path/file( I don,t remember what it was)
[02:09] <soundray> ddillow: "randomly" indicates hardware problems. Have you tried memtest86?
[02:09] <mcscruff> Pollywog, gtkpod shouldnt be able to delete stuff from my pc!!!!
[02:09] <Pollywog> mcscruff: restart gtkpod but if it asks you to confirm say no
[02:10] <hobs> it was actually my own stupidity, I was trying cp xorg.conf_backup xorg.conf and it wasnt reporting an error, so I just tried sudo in front and it worked fine kurtkraut ;)
[02:10] <Pollywog> mcscruff: yes it is supposed to delete from the PC or the Ipod
[02:10] <nedge> got a question for you, I anticipate rought waters moving my PCI SATA card to my new and improved linux box...
[02:10] <ddillow> yes all of my hardware checks out, i got the kernal panic when i started it with nolapic and again with noapic which was suggested on this room before
[02:10] <xX-ACID-Xx> !
[02:10] <KurtKraut> hobs, that happens in the best families :P
[02:10] <ticki> Pelo: i can't run SUDO... whenever i try to run the sudo cmd i get this error: "sudo: can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission denied"
[02:10] <hobs> haha
[02:10] <nedge> is there a way to go from NTFS to ubuntu's perfered OS without loosing the drive
[02:10] <Pollywog> mcscruff: you can use Amarok if you want to be safer
[02:10] <Pelo> ticki,  are you the root for that computer ?
[02:10] <nedge> err perferred FS...not OS
[02:10] <ticki> Pelo: yes
[02:11] <ticki> Pelo: mayby i ca do that in safe mode
[02:11] <Frog29> Hi, i got some commands from someone earlier and i'm not sure how to use them, i seem to be getting a lot of errors....... here are the two "chroot /mnt/old
[02:11] <Frog29> mount /boot
[02:11] <mcscruff> Pollywog, i think i lost em, gotta redo an hours worth of renaming now
[02:11] <ticki> Pelo: I mean, in recovery mode at startup
[02:11] <ant-> ddillow : i would say it going black is a video driver problem but the text based installer should atleast install ubuntu and then not load the desktop
[02:11] <Frog29> i have /mnt/old alreast mounted
[02:11] <soundray> ddillow: two more boot options worth trying are 'pci=noacpi' and 'acpi=off'
[02:11] <_Falkon_> After installing some drivers in preparation for Beryl, my login screen ended up way too far to the left.  It's usable, just annoyingly off center.  I have a Radeon X300.  How can I fix this?
[02:11] <Pollywog> mcscruff: do you use grip?
[02:11] <hobs> kurtkraut, is there anyway to just tell x to ignore whether it is compatible or not and just try to run it? I think for some reason the card is not reporting correctly, but it can run the nvidia drivers as I have seen, I need some sort of voodoo
[02:11] <eduhat> okay, universe is enabled.. now do i have to restart?
[02:11] <ddillow> soundray, ive tried those options as well
[02:11] <mcscruff> Pollywog,  grip????
[02:12] <Pelo> ticki,   I don't realy have anything else to suggest,  maybe someone else can help ,  restate your problem periodicaly
[02:12] <ddillow> ant, ive tried in graphically safe mode and alternative and nothing
[02:12] <Pollywog> mcscruff: yes.   sudo apt-get install grip
[02:12] <soundray> eduhat: no, just 'sudo apt-get update' or click Reload, if you haven't done so already.
[02:12] <Frog29> so how would i set a mounted drive with chroot?
[02:12] <Pelo> ticki,  or try looking it up in the forum
[02:12] <Pollywog> it will save time on renaming
[02:12] <ticki> i am getting this error message : "ubuntu sudo: can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission denied" i have booted and checked the file visudo and it says it's fine. does anybody know what can i do/
[02:12] <soundray> eduhat: then you should be able to install hostap-source
[02:12] <KurtKraut> hobs, you'll need an X specialist. You may find one in ubuntuforums.org
[02:12] <hobs> I have seen the nVidia spashscreen kurtkraut, and it is good
[02:12] <hobs> oh ok :)
[02:12] <mcscruff> Pollywog, nope, might now tho, well im off to cry
[02:12] <ant-> ddillow : but is it letting you install ubuntu and then hanging?
[02:12] <ddillow> no it isnt getting to the installer
[02:12] <ant-> oh

[02:13] <soundray> ddillow: I had one machine which had similar troubles. I got it to work with the beta release. Have you tried feisty?
[02:13] <ticki> Pelo: ok. i think need to add a user from recovery mode
[02:13] <ticki> Pelo: thanks for the help
[02:13] <Pelo> Stylee-FilipBole,  uncompress it
[02:13] <Pollywog> so after putting tunes on the Ipod with gtkpod, use Amarok or rhythm
[02:13] <ddillow> no I haven't
[02:14] <ddillow> I will give it a shot though
[02:14] <ddillow> thanks all g2g
[02:14] <soundray> ddillow: it's not ready -- be warned. Join #ubuntu+1 and read the topic.
[02:14] <kaushal> where do the apache install httpd.conf file exits
[02:14] <kaushal> exists
[02:15] <soundray> kaushal: /etc/apache or /etc/apache2
[02:15] <kaushal> ok
[02:15] <harpette> kaushal: try slocate?
[02:15] <gili> can someone tell me how to get QT plugin in firefox
[02:15] <cafuego_> Of course, with apache2 you don't use httpd.conf
[02:15] <Frog29> hello, can someone help me with some basic livecd operations? i'm trying to gain access to my boot partition to run this code "apt-get install kernel-image0'uname -r'" i currently have the partition mouunted, but instructions i received say to chroot to it, but that gives me an error, so can someone help me?
[02:15] <kaushal> ok
[02:15] <Stylee-FilipBole> Pelo: I've also decompressed one, and burned it with K3B, but I was unable to play it, when I've tried to play it compressed, I've atlest had a sound...
[02:15] <Pollywog> or dpkg -L <packagename>
[02:16] <jlee_> cool
[02:16] <jlee_> is anyone here I see no usernames...
[02:16] <soundray> Frog29: what are you entering as the chroot command?
[02:16] <Pelo> Stylee-FilipBole,  I just read up on ratdvd a bit and I think unless you do it on a windows system you are screwed
[02:16] <Frog29> soundray - i'm enttering sudo chroot /mnt/old
[02:16] <Foon> oiye, is there an on-screen keyboard for linux?
[02:16] <Pelo> Stylee-FilipBole,  word of advice,  before downloading insanely large compressed file make sure you can do something with them
[02:16] <kaushal> so is it
[02:16] <kaushal> kaushal:/etc/apache2$ pwd
[02:16] <Foon> <-- for those too lazy to swap keyboard wires constantly
[02:17] <kaushal> /etc/apache2
[02:17] <kaushal> kaushal/etc/apache2$ sudo vi apache2.conf
[02:17] <Smerity> dave_, how are you going?
[02:17] <jlee_> ok, I am using GNOME, does anyone know how to have multiple backgrounds per desktop of the four desktops?
[02:17] <soundray> Frog29: try 'sudo chroot /mnt/old/ bash'
[02:17] <Stylee-FilipBole> Pelo: OMG, I've downloaded a ton of shit :)
[02:17] <soundray> Frog29: and I would suggest not to use uname -r in that apt-get command
[02:17] <Pelo> jlee_,  there is an applets that does that, let me try to remember the name of it
[02:17] <Frog29> soundray - no dice, it says bash cannot be run my chroot
[02:18] <jlee_> thanks I am a total newb, but just got beryl working and am having a blast
[02:18] <kaushal> soundray is that correct
[02:18] <_Falkon_> After installing some drivers in preparation for Beryl, my login screen ended up way too far to the left.  It's usable, just annoyingly off center.  I have a Radeon X300.  How can I fix this?

[02:18] <Pelo> jlee_, http://wallpapoz.akbarhome.com/
[02:18] <Foon> oiye, is there an on-screen keyboard for linux?

[02:19] <jlee_> anyone know how to see a list of usernames in the room?
[02:20] <Foon> can anyone else remember the name, mayhaps?
[02:20] <harpette> jlee_: which irc client?
[02:20] <Smerity> Does anyone know of the sound issue where sound will randomly stop working and only work again after a reboot? I feel it may be related to the use of Mplayer, Mozilla-Mplayer and Flash ... :S
[02:20] <Frog29> soundray - sorry, brb
[02:20] <Pelo> Foon,  look in the add/remove applet in the application menu,  search for keyboard
[02:20] <soundray> Foon: try onboard, or for a really weird experience, dasher

[02:21] <jlee_> Foon: I am using a kvm

[02:21] <Ferret> Foon: You probably want the lattermost for gnome, otherwise the second or third
[02:21] <Foon> :S jlee_
[02:21] <AskHL> Hello, I'm trying to mount a directory through sshfs. The host computer runs an ssh server which works (accepts ssh connections). When I run the command "smbfs userName@hostName:/remote/directory/ localDirectory", I cannot use cd to enter the local directory, and when I type "ls -l", the dir is listed in red, and all the permissions are question marks. Can someone help?
[02:22] <jlee_> foon: I had to ensure that the monitor was hooked up to the box WHILE booting for the new drivers to reconize the monitor
[02:22] <soundray> Foon: try it and you will see. It's a Super Mario-like way of entering text.
