[17:45] <danbh_intrepid> gianluca: what OS do you want?
[17:46] <harisund> Brainyiscool: Not sure to be honest. Maybe you could look into an application called "NX" .. FreeNX is one implementation
[17:46] <Brainyiscool> Alright, thanks
[17:46] <sacrebleu>  i'm having trouble .. a library is referencing libjpeg and it cannot seem to find the libjpeg symbols, despite the libjpeg-dbg library being installed as well as libjpeg, Gutsy Gibbon 7-10
[17:46] <spsneo> I am trying to install minix on qemu  over hardy . It hangs up . any solution ?
[17:48] <sambagirl> well i dont like it. but now i have that grub on there and that kinda sucks too. but i might just use elive instead since it hatleast has a interface in 2008.
[17:48] <NCommander> Does anyone know if I need restricted plugins installed to get audio CDs to play?
[17:48] <danbh_intrepid> sambagirl: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel
[17:49] <sambagirl> i personally think they should be ashamed for putting out something like that in 2008 with no gui.
[17:50] <joerack> Guys: I finally managed to install office 2007 under linux
[17:50] <sambagirl> you better believe apple would not do that.
[17:50] <joerack> the only problem with wine is that acess doesn't work - help?
[17:50] <Pici> joerack: Join #winehq for specific application help within Wine.
[17:50] <danbh_intrepid> sambagirl: all the boot loaders are the same that I have seen.  Windows is like that too
[17:50] <radioman{LT}> why not openoffice?
[17:51] <gianluca> Today on my laptop 530 hp I started ubuntu from live cd all right until I partitions removed ubuntu and now I error by resolving the grub that is, as I start to view and permanently delete ubuntu?
[17:51] <sambagirl> i am just frustrated they did not include a gui with the server danbh_intrepid.
[17:51] <danbh_intrepid> sambagirl: a general gui?
[17:52] <sambagirl> well webadmin would have been thoughtful
[17:52] <sambagirl> or anytyhing actually
[17:52] <erUSUL> !webmin
[17:52] <sambagirl> brb
[17:52] <erUSUL> !ebox | sambagirl
[17:53] <dryrot> ebox installs an estimated 30,000 things
[17:53] <joerack> I prefer office
[17:55] <jim_p> sasha_levin: can you also tell me the hardware that it is on?
[17:55] <bandoor> hello
[17:55] <jim_p> sasha_levin: mobo or laptop
[17:56] <deever> re
[17:56] <piotrek> hi all
[17:56] <sasha_levin> jim_p, It's a PC, with an ASUS mobo
[17:56] <sasha_levin> jim_p, Do you need specific model?
[17:57] <jim_p> sasha_levin: yes :(
[17:57] <piotrek> gg not disconnect
[17:57] <^paradox^> jim_p: i have hplip and hplip-data
[17:57] <Qster> hi i use windows as my main box and i usually vnc into my ubuntu box but for some reason it is not allowing me to vnc anymore just saying connection refused?
[17:57] <bandoor> is there someone i should chat to in regards to isntallation of ubuntu?
[17:57] <ratpoison> hello! how do I change the colour schemes / skins of my qt apps inside GNOME?
[17:57] <sasha_levin> jim_p, Give me a second please :)
[17:57] <jim_p> saschahl: ok
[17:57] <harisund> How do I see a list of all the environment variables that have been defined?
[17:57] <jim_p> ^paradox^: and?
[17:58] <deever> how can i install the python2.5 headers?
[17:58] <deever> 'apt-get install' says that python2.5-dev is installed, but its files are not on my system...
[17:58] <Pici> harisund: env
[17:58] <sasha_levin> jim_p, P5GC-MX/1333
[17:58] <harisund> Pici: sweet thanks :)
[17:58] <^paradox^> seems ive had them all along so i dont think itll solve the problem
[17:59] <Pici> deever: Where are you looking for them?
[17:59] <jerbear> i'm looking at tracker statistics. it's not indexing my music folder. what could be the problem?
[17:59] <jim_p> sasha_levin: thanks
[17:59] <sasha_levin> jim_p, I know that the network card on that motherboard wasn't supported until recently (ATL2), maybe It's the same issue?
[17:59] <deever> Pici: below /
[17:59] <jim_p> ^paradox^: try the ones from hp, not the ones in the repo. newer version .run file
[18:00] <deever> Pici: dpkg -L python2.5-dev
[18:00] <jim_p> sasha_levin: the ethernet card is another issue.  its drivers are proprietary i think
[18:00] <vock> Hi i was just wondering what the command was to run as root temporarily, not sudo, but the one that lets you run in a root shell?
[18:00] <Pici> deever: apt-file show tells me they should be in /usr/include/python2.5/
[18:00] <unop> vock, sudo -i
[18:00] <danbh_intrepid> vock: sudo -i        I think
[18:00] <vock> awesome, thanks guys
[18:01] <^paradox^> oh ok hang on
[18:01] <deever> Pici: these files are not there, although the package is considered installed...
[18:01] <unop> deever, you might want to purge and reinstall the package then
[18:01] <ZeroA4> vock, i think you are talking about su BUT to use su you have to know the root password... and the ubuntu root does not have one
[18:01] <bandoor> guys, i cant boot ubuntu form cd =/ it keeps booting me to a built-in shell (ash)
[18:01] <sasha_levin> jim_p, Good thing it's fixed now :)
[18:01] <ZeroA4> vock, so you have to use sudo -i
[18:01] <Pici> ZeroA4: sudo -i  will give you an interactive sudo sessions.
[18:02] <erUSUL> !rooshell | ZeroA4
[18:02] <vock> ZeroA4: yeah, sudo -i is perfect
[18:02] <ikkinu> I can't digit my passphrase when sending signed mails with thunderbird; can anyone help me?
[18:02] <deever> unop: 'apt-get remove python2.5-dev' would remove kubuntu-desktop too...
[18:02] <erUSUL> !rootshell > ZeroA4
[18:02] <ratpoison> hello! how do I change the colour schemes / skins of my qt apps inside GNOME?
[18:02] <ZeroA4> Pici, i know... it just becose he said "not sudo"
[18:02] <Pici> ratpoison: You can install kcontrol for that.
[18:02] <unop> deever,  you could try this.  sudo aptitude reinstall python2.5-dev
[18:03] <bandoor> hallo? anyone know why ubuntu is not booting properly in my xp?
[18:03] <ratpoison> Pici: thnx
[18:03] <vish> bandoor, what's your problem?
[18:04] <blekos> hello, is there any way we could install gnome 2.24?
[18:04] <sambagirl> thanks to know about ebox
[18:04] <harisund> Anyone knows how to install the Standard Template Library?
[18:04] <Pici> blekos: Wait for Intrepid to be released and then upgrade.
[18:04] <blekos> :) well I would like to give it a try... but I'd probably mess things up
[18:05] <unop> harisund, for C++
[18:05] <unop> ??
[18:05] <harisund> unop Yeah
[18:05] <ratpoison> blekos: download a GNOME 2.24 livecd
[18:05] <blekos> thnx ;)
[18:05] <ratpoison> http://torrent.gnome.org/
[18:05] <NicEXE> how can I set a hard drive to mount automatically?
[18:05] <Cobra_Fast> hey anybody can help me getting guest write access on samba?
[18:06] <deever> unop: they don't get installed with this neither...
[18:06] <jim_p> sasha_levin: in case you end up luckier than me : i am searching for some options that are parsed to the asound file and have to do with how the module "outputs" the audio from the video card
[18:07] <unop> harisund, errm, not sure, though you could try installing this package to pull the necessary headers in  libstlport5.1-dev
[18:07] <harisund> all right, will check it out unop. was just looking for a name to start with :0
[18:07] <NicEXE> how can I set a hard drive to mount automatically?
[18:07] <miguelinux> hi
[18:07] <genii> Cobra_Fast: I just got back now.   When you are browsing the share from the windows box, can you paste result of the command:   smbstatus
[18:07] <sasha_levin> jim_p, Are you looking at something I could give a try?
[18:07] <Qster> hi i use windows as my main box and i usually vnc into my ubuntu box but for some reason it is not allowing me to vnc anymore just saying connection refused?
[18:07] <Joaquingt> cobra_fast. add guest ok = yes and  read only = no in your /etc/samba/smb.conf
[18:07] <jerbear> i'm looking at tracker statistics. it's not indexing my music folder. what could be the problem?
[18:07] <unop> deever, hmm, why do you need the headers? maybe there's a better way around this?
[18:08] <miguelinux> does network-manager forget static DNS in your PC's???
[18:08] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Also, what windows version is it?
[18:08] <Cobra_Fast> ganii i tried the three commands u gave me. alle three did an error
[18:08] <Cobra_Fast> genii im using Windows XP Pro SP3
[18:08] <ljsoftnet> Qster: maybe the vnc server is not running?
[18:08] <jim_p> sasha_levin: for what i said above
[18:08] <Pici> Qster: Are you using Gnome's remote desktop as your vnc server?
[18:09] <deever> unop: i'm building gdb myself for python support
[18:09] <Qster> Pici: yes
[18:09] <genii> Cobra_Fast: OK. XP should be OK, Vista needs a tweak however (different default LanMan protocols)
[18:09] <Qster> Pici: i am using both vnc4server and Xvnc
[18:09] <NicEXE> how can I set a hard drive to mount automatically? (I am on Ubuntu) (hard drive is connected through SATA interface)
[18:09] <jim_p> sasha_levin: i know this >> snd_hda_intel is the module, i dont know the options for 5.1
[18:09] <sasha_levin> jim_p, Hm... Should I try: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[18:09] <gonzojive> Can I install Ubuntu on a software (md) raid array that is not configured prior to installation?
[18:09] <Pici> Qster: Then that user needs to be logged in for the server to be running.
[18:09] <luminerd> I am going to be using partimage to back up the whole system to a image (then "restore" to around 20 identical machines).  What is the best format to use for the partition I back up to?
[18:09] <Qster> Pici: i have autologin enabled on that user
[18:10] <Joaquingt> luminerd: i use g4l
[18:10] <luminerd> Someone recomended XFS to me, but in GParted it is greyed out, and in cfdisk the option isn't listed.
[18:10] <Val__> hi everybody ^^
[18:10] <miguelinux> hi
[18:10] <Val__> i need some help with kopete
[18:10] <zimbres> would i consume less cpu time if i use a display manager like twm instead of the default gdm(full desktop sessions)?
[18:10] <Joaquingt> donno about partimage but you can do a simultaneous restor with g4l
[18:10] <jim_p> sasha_levin: no, you already have the module and it works. dont make it from source :P
[18:10] <unop> deever, try these.  sudo aptitude install python-dev  python-all-dev
[18:10] <Val__> is there any way to have a personnal picture?
[18:10] <Cobra_Fast> genii so what should i do next?
[18:10] <miguelinux> is anybody here using static IP's through network-manager???
[18:10] <Pici> Qster: Are you sure the user is logged in? And/or the computer is on?
[18:10] <luminerd> Joaquingt: Simultaneous restore?
[18:10] <Joaquingt> val__: where ?
[18:11] <Joaquingt> luminerd: yeah you can restore the image to the 20 pcs at the same tim
[18:11] <unop> zimbres, possibly, though not necessarily - it depends what you run in the twm
[18:11] <vish> Val_, i the preferences, look into the about option.
[18:11] <Val__> i mean on msn messenger you have a picture (i don't know the term in english) that people can see
[18:11] <CarlFK> what command is it probably making this clonezilla output "Try to turn on the harddisk "/dev/sda" DMA...  HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device" (ibex kernel)
[18:11] <Joaquingt> avatar
[18:11] <jim_p> sasha_levin: somewhere in the middle of the page says "options snd-hda-intel model=MODEL" inside a code box. THIS is what i am looking for, the MODEL part
[18:11] <Qster> Pici: yes i am sure and yes it is on, i can connect to my vnc4server just fine, but when i try to connect to my Xvnc server it says connection refused
[18:11] <SlimeyPete> usericon
[18:11] <Joaquingt> val__ you should try emesene instead of kopete
[18:11] <erUSUL> luminerd: probably you need to install xfsutils or something like that
[18:11] <luminerd> Joaquingt: as cool as that sounds, I'm guessing my technical skills are a bit below it
[18:11] <Val__> emesene is better?
[18:11] <pir4> hi, im having a lot of problems with bluetooth. im using a laptop hp dv5000, tried to look for help in the forums without success, if theres anyone that know a lil bit about bluetooth ill be happy to get some help by PM. Thx
[18:12] <Val__> because i tried amsn and it really sucks
[18:12] <Joaquingt> val___ way better, kopete is horrible
[18:12] <deever> unop: this would install some python2.4 stuff...
[18:12] <pir4> emesene, your best option
[18:12] <benzss> is ndiswrapper designed only for wireless?
[18:12] <sasha_levin> jim_p, sasha@sasha-desktop:~$ cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
[18:12] <sasha_levin> Codec: Realtek ALC662 rev1
[18:12] <CarlFK> pir4:  your lap have an amd64?
[18:12] <Pici> Qster: I hate to ask the obvious, but if you are outside the network that the computer is in, that you have the proper ports forwarded to that machine?
[18:12] <ub00ntu> Hi there, I have problems viewing videos with flash on my laptop: in order to view a flash video or animation I have to click on a big grey "play" logo, and it plays very laggy. Any advice? (I normally downloaded the flash plugin with firefox.)
[18:12] <Joaquingt> val__ not sure if they updated emesene from the repositores so go to the main site and get the .deb
[18:12] <pir4> CapaH, yes!
[18:12] <erUSUL> benzss: only for network cards
[18:12] <Val__> ook then i'll try it thank you Joaquingt ^^
[18:12] <benzss> erUSUL: ok thanks :]
[18:12] <sambagirl> wow this ebox look hot. thanks alot erusul
[18:12] <sasha_levin> jim_p, That's how that page said to find model
[18:12] <Joaquingt> no problem val___
[18:12] <jim_p> sasha_levin: :O
[18:12] <erUSUL> sambagirl: no problem
[18:12] <Joaquingt> luminerd: lemme get a link for you
[18:12] <Qster> Pici: well actually i only access from within the network it is a headless system
[18:13] <sasha_levin> jim_p, Hm?
[18:13] <pir4> CapaH, are you having the same problem ? or you know something about it ?
[18:13] <CarlFK> pir4: guessing you meant that for me?
[18:13] <genii> Cobra_Fast: When you are browsing the share from the windows box, can you paste result of the command:   smbstatus             this should give us some info on what username is in effect, etc
[18:13] <sambagirl> i am getting it now. i will try it in vmware fusion and then do a real install. thanks again to everyone bbl
[18:13] <pir4> CarlFK, thats right :D
[18:13] <Cobra_Fast> okay genii
[18:13] <jim_p> sasha_levin: i am speechless. you found it in 1 minute how to! what does yours say?
[18:14] <Pici> Qster: Hmm.. Have you ever been able to connect?
[18:14] <unop> deever, well, i can't seem to find any other packages that might have the python headers - you can have both python 2.4 and 2.5 installed at the same time, though it might not suit your purpose if you want gdb to cater to 2.5 only - you could ask the guys in #python perhaps
[18:14] <jim_p> sasha_levin: mine says Codec: Realtek ALC885
[18:14] <harisund> How do I minimize the graphic effects? When I minimize a window, I just want it to vanish, I don't want it to animate itself getting minimized, and so on?
[18:14] <Cobra_Fast> genii in R/W it says readonly
[18:14] <sasha_levin> jim_p, Codec: Realtek ALC662 rev1
[18:14] <Qster> Pici: yes i have, i want to say it stopped working after i rebooted the computer after i had installed vnc4server so i could login to different users
[18:14] <ayhan> ubuntu forums down or overloaded ? cant get to the forums.
[18:14] <CarlFK> pir4: havn't tried bt - but ibex kernel hangs my dv6700 wondering if you too.  mind trying the latest live CD?
[18:15] <wiehan> I have a problem: after an ubuntu update (including some firefox updates) my firefox cursor is almost permanently loading - even though the website has finished loading ages ago - I know this sound like a noob misinterpretation, but it is not, in my firefox error console there are are thousand of warnings and errors, even if I'm not browsing, and just opened it and my homepage is the default ubuntu wellcome home page, this must be a bug
[18:15] <wiehan> and is extremely irritating, please help me solve this!!
[18:15] <pir4> CarlFK, cant now, but yes, having i lil problem there
[18:15] <Pici> Qster: Its possible that its running on a different port then. You can use   sudo netstat -tanp | grep vnc   to see what it may be listening on.
[18:15] <ub00ntu> Hi there, I have problems viewing videos with flash on my laptop: in order to view a flash video or animation I have to click on a big grey "play" logo, and it plays very laggy. Any advice? (I normally downloaded the flash plugin with firefox.)
[18:15] <Qster> Pici hmm let me see
[18:15] <NicEXE> when Ubuntu boots up my fixed internal hard drive (connected through SATA) is unmounted. I can temporary mount it manually. What do I have to do in order to mount automatically?

[18:16] <deever> unop: np! ;)
[18:16] <Qster> !pastebin
[18:17] <erUSUL> !fstab | NicEXE

[18:17] <Cobra_Fast> genii so what ^^
[18:17] <Qster> Pici: http://paste.ubuntu.com/53233/
[18:17] <CarlFK> pir4: add your dmesg to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/254668
[18:18] <pir4> CarlFK, ill do so
[18:18] <pingu_> i have tryed in my LAN with vncviewer and everything is fine, but now i have to help a friend with his ubuntu (compiz etc) and i need to access his ubuntu. He is under a firewall and is trying to open a port 5900 to me.
[18:18] <vish> Hey guys, Have you heard about the powua computer? Can I do blender rendering in that computer for free?
[18:18] <mhd> hi
[18:19] <pingu_> wich is the syntax i have to use with vnc? vncviewer pubblicaddressofrouter:5900 ?
[18:19] <wiehan> does anyone experience any firefox issues after a recent ubuntu update - i.e. your cursor won't stop loading?
[18:19] <Joaquingt> pingu_: thats depends, if you want to connect to a linux box, you need to use vncviewer address:0
[18:19] <Joaquingt> where 0 is the x session
[18:19] <mhd> well i am facing some troubles in java chat
[18:20] <mhd> java.lang.nullpointer exception :|
[18:20] <Cobra_Fast> genii for making this smbpasswd -an guest thing, do i have to add a user "guest" ?
[18:20] <pingu_> i want to connect to a ubuntu hardy desktop with vncviewer to a pic wich is under a firewall
[18:20] <Joaquingt> allow your ip in the firewall rules
[18:20] <Joaquingt> and try it
[18:21] <Pici> Qster: And does connecting on any of those ports work properly? I'm not sure I remember the syntax for connecting on a specific port, it may be host::port or host:port in your vncviewer dialog.
[18:21] <ub00ntu> Hi there, I have problems viewing videos with flash on my laptop: in order to view a flash video or animation I have to click on a big grey "play" logo, and it plays very laggy. Any advice? (I normally downloaded the flash plugin with firefox.)
[18:21] <mhd> does anyone faces any problems in chatting in java ? :|
[18:21] <Joaquingt> ub00ntu. try playing the videos without compiz
[18:21] <wiehan> I can't write to any windows shared folder on my network? What should I do?
[18:21] <Joaquingt> and tell me if that works
[18:22] <mhd> :)
[18:22] <pingu_> hmmm...
[18:22] <LonelyRacer> anyone know how to fix flickering screen while playing games?
[18:22] <wiehan> Joaquingt don't you think ub00ntu's problem lies within the fact that he is using the opensource flash plugin...
[18:23] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Apologies again on lag. They are buzzing for me every few minutes here at work right now :/       The names made with smbpasswd do not neccesarily have to have unix system names which correspond
[18:23] <pingu_> ...anyway is the firewall of my friend that have to be configured...not mine...am i right ?
[18:23] <ub00ntu> Joaquingt: compiz is off, I have to use the opensource driver or how its called, because of my graphics card
[18:23] <ub00ntu> wiehan: oh that may be....
[18:23] <Jork> does anyone maybe know how to chechk on amsn if someone gives you on block?
[18:23] <Cobra_Fast> genii but if i try to do the -an thing it says failed to modify
[18:23] <erUSUL> pingu_: yep
[18:23] <anuubuntu> hello ,i am newbie of ubuntu.i am trying to mount my sony digicam on my   laptop but it is not  detecting .is there any solution for this
[18:23] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Try stopping samba first then using smbpasswd then start it again after
[18:24] <wiehan> ub00nto yes I'm quite certain... i've tried the opensource plugin before, and sorry to say but the proprietary one is better polished
[18:24] <pingu_> thanx
[18:24] <Joaquingt> uboontu whats your video card ?
[18:24] <Cobra_Fast> genii still error modifying
[18:24] <pitbull666> hello everyone

[18:25] <genii> Cobra_Fast: 1 minute I'll test here. "guest" may be a reserved name which cannot be modified
[18:25] <pitbull666> I have a question regargind harware.How can I find out whether ubuntu installed correct drivers for the mainboard, cpu, etc?
[18:25] <Cobra_Fast> okay
[18:25] <Cobra_Fast> ill wait
[18:25] <amenado> pitbull666-> if they work, they are loaded and working okay
[18:25] <Slart> pitbull666: if it works the drivers are usually correct
[18:25] <Jork> is kde 4.1.1 more stable yet?
[18:25] <ub00ntu> Joaquingt: heres the lshw output.
[18:25] <`Matir> pitbull666, there's no such thing as a CPU driver
[18:25] <ub00ntu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/53237/
[18:25] <`Matir> pitbull666, other than that, what problems are you having?
[18:26] <Slart> pitbull666: there might be more than one driver for some things.. soundcards.. videocards are about the only two examples I know of
[18:26] <Joaquingt> k, 1 sec
[18:26] <pitbull666> I have standard problems with nVidia, but I'll sort that out. I'm curious about other hrdw.
[18:26] <genii> Cobra_Fast: sudo smbpasswd -an guest   result:  "User guest password set to none."         So this works on my box

[18:26] <Cobra_Fast> it doesnt on my box
[18:26] <Slart> wiehan: check permissions.. both on the share and on the underlying file system..
[18:27] <wiehan> Slart I'm vertain that the permissions are correct - I'm not that much of a n00b
[18:27] <pitbull666> So on ubuntu the hardware drivers are a priori properly installed?
[18:27] <Slart> anuubuntu: if your digicam is supposed to work as a hard drive it should be detected.. if not then it might get very tricky
[18:27] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Did you pastebin yet the result of command: smbstatus                     while browsing the share from the Windows machine?
[18:27] <wiehan> Slart *certain, I know that the permissions are correct on the windows side
[18:28] <Cobra_Fast> genii ill do that right now!
[18:28] <Jork> bitches i ask something!
[18:28] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Thanks
[18:28] <Jork> kde 4.1.1 and his stability?
[18:28] <pitbull666> Well.. .thanks everyone.
[18:28] <lastdays> Help:Fresh JeOS,I need use xDSL,How to?Thanks
[18:28] <Slart> wiehan: ok.. the next step I would check is to make sure you're really sending a username at all.. that you're not trying to login anonymously
[18:28] <wiehan> Jork should be kicked
[18:28] <Cobra_Fast> genii http://nopaste.org/p/al3k3NuSO
[18:28] <Jork> asaholes
[18:28] <vish> Jork, clean your mouth.
[18:28] <Slart> !ops | jork
[18:29] <^paradox^> jimp: whats the latest version of hplip from hp's site?
[18:29] <pitbull666> Jork: obviously people here don't know...maybe if you tried googling a bit?
[18:30] <Pici> pitbull666: Hes no longer here.
[18:30] <wiehan> Slart how do I do that, when I connect to a share (one wich I know has write permissions over the network) it asks for a username, so I just use what is default in the dialog boxes (my name) and hit enter...
[18:30] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Reading, 1 minute
[18:30] <Cobra_Fast> kk
[18:30] <pitbull666> OK
[18:30] <Cobra_Fast> genii it contains two smbstatus, one befor accessing and one while/after
[18:30] <Slart> wiehan: I'm not really sure about this.. enable loggin on the server computer.. see if any error messages pop up
[18:31] <luminerd> Joaquingt: Thanks for the link! As I feared it scares me though, and I dare not undertake it since I don't know if I'll be able to complete it ..and we need to get this done by Monday
[18:31] <pitbull666> I have another question... I have 2 comps I want to network... does anyone know of a good tutorial? I found quite a few but it doesn't work... :(
[18:31] <jerbear> i'm looking at tracker statistics. it's not indexing my music folder. what could be the problem?
[18:31] <Slart> wiehan: you might get some info from the client side too.. but I think the server will be more helpful
[18:31] <anuubuntu> Slart: how to detect it first
[18:31] <wiehan> Slart ok, I'll do that... thanks for the help though..
[18:31] <deathtech_> I wanna thank erUSUL for all of his help, he assisted me in getting my BCM4318 WiFi (Linksys WMP54GS) Working great!
[18:31]  * erUSUL :)
[18:32] <Pici> !cookie | erUSUL
[18:32] <Slart> wiehan: *if* it's supposed to be used as a hard drive.. which I would say is a 50/50 chance.. it should pop up when you connect the camera.. just like a regular usb drive
[18:32] <pitbull666> Anyone?
[18:32] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Weird. All looks good and as if it should work.
[18:32] <Cobra_Fast> genii at R/W it says RDONLY
[18:32] <Slart> ah.. sorry..
[18:33] <Slart> anuubuntu: *if* it's supposed to be used as a hard drive.. which I would say is a 50/50 chance.. it should pop up when you connect the camera.. just like a regular usb drive
[18:33]  * erUSUL crunch! crunch!
[18:33] <Slart> anuubuntu: you can also search the ubuntu forums for your camera model.. see if anyone else has had any problems
[18:34] <Slart> anuubuntu: just a regular search in google for manufacturer, model, +ubuntu usually gives a pretty good idea what people are saying about it
[18:34] <boliar> :)
[18:34] <luminerd> btw Joaquingt I do not have a server for all these machines either so I don't think that could work D=
[18:34] <anuubuntu> Slart: is there anything that i  need to install
[18:34] <Joaquingt> ub00ntu. are you using the precompiled drivers ?
[18:34] <Slart> anuubuntu: not that I know if
[18:34] <Slart> s/if/of
[18:34] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Yes. Try:  chown -Rh cobra:cobra /home/cobra/share              and: chmod -R 0775 /home/cobra/share
[18:35] <genii> Cobra_Fast: I am suspecting r/w/x  settings on host folder right now
[18:35] <kevin_> how do I increase my screen resolution - Its showing the max as 1280 - 800
[18:35] <ub00ntu> Joaquingt: theres no available linux driver for my graphics card so, yeah I think.
[18:35] <pitbull666> kevin_ is your graphic card properly installed?
[18:35] <genii> Cobra_Fast: They are calling me again. AFK
[18:35] <Cobra_Fast> genii didnt work
[18:35] <kevin_> pitbull666, is there a way I can check?
[18:35] <LonelyRacer> guys how come my screen flicker while playing game
[18:36] <ayhan> hello all, i need to install nvidia drivers in console. and asking me to restart pc in console mode. how can i do that.. kindly thanks..
[18:36] <zylche> Expresscard Help Wanted: Ubiquiti 300mW wireless card not being detected at all, worked before, unknown reasons why it isn't working now.
[18:36] <luminerd> Anyone here use PartImage?
[18:36] <anuubuntu> Slart: ok i will try thanku for ur idea
[18:36] <pitbull666> kevin_ which card do you have?
[18:37] <BashItOut> LonelyRacer: How badly flicker?
[18:37] <kevin_> pitbull666, nvidia something or other -- i forgot the cmd to check exactly what
[18:37] <LonelyRacer> BashItOut: like every 5-10 sec
[18:37] <pitbull666> kevin_ check out this tool
[18:37] <pitbull666> http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=298b787827ec67b4124827304476bb5c&t=72490
[18:37] <pitbull666> kevin_ solved most of my problems with nVidias.
[18:38] <deathtech_> im guessing xchat is the major irc app for nix ?
[18:38] <BashItOut> LonelyRacer: May be something to do with the driver, maybe something to do with the hardware. How old is the screen?
[18:38] <kevin_> pitbull666, does it matter that Im not running Fedora? (Im running lastest version of Ubuntu)
[18:39] <LonelyRacer> BashItOut: new 19" wide lcd like 5 months, im using ati hd2600
[18:40] <Pici> !nvidia | kevin_ please read
[18:40] <kevin_> pitbull666, nvm sory ..stupid ?
[18:40] <FiremanEd> deathtech: I use Irssi, terminal based
[18:40] <BashItOut> Nice, err, it might be a good idea to see if anyone knows what they are talking about when it comes to drivers
[18:40] <kevin_> Pici, kk tx
[18:40] <zylche> --- Expresscard Problem Solved: sudo modprobe pciehp pciehp_force=1   was all I needed to do if anyone in similar position.
[18:41] <Pici> kevin_: Using the official drivers that ubottu has linked you or envy-ng is always better than trying to install from the archive from nvidia's website, easier too.
[18:41] <kevin_> Pici, envy-ng?
[18:41] <ootnooboo> is firefox 2 unresponsive for anybody here?
[18:42] <Pici> !envy | kevin_
[18:42] <ootnooboo> 3*
[18:42] <^paradox^> jim_p: is there a deb package for hplip from hp?
[18:42] <Pici> kevin_: Try the official way first, of course.
[18:42] <ikonia> ^paradox^: contact hp
[18:42] <erUSUL> !info hplip
[18:42] <BashItOut> ootnooboo: Nah, its laggy sometimes though, but thats my rubbish hardware ;)
[18:43] <ootnooboo> well for me the clicking is unresponsive
[18:43] <kevin_> Pici, i c -- thanks I'll try the official way first then.
[18:43] <jim_p> ^paradox^: no, only a .run file that has the latest version 2.8.9
[18:44] <ootnooboo> turning off ipv6 (in about:config) made it better
[18:45] <e-ogma> how come #locate finds a file that is not on the folder it points to?
[18:45] <NiCK_NaME_> hello ?
[18:45] <NiCK_NaME_> anyone here
[18:45] <LonelyRacer> .....
[18:46] <BashItOut> Hey NiCK_NaME
[18:46] <erUSUL> e-ogma: uses a db that's is  updated only once a day
[18:46] <erUSUL> e-ogma: sudo updatedb
[18:46] <NiCK_NaME_> BashItOut hey whats up!
[18:46] <Pici> e-ogma: because locate uses a database to search quickly through your filesystem. You'd need to issue sudo updatedb to refresh it.
[18:46] <e-ogma> erUSUL: thanks a whole bunch!
[18:46] <Pici> e-ogma: 'find' will always return the proper results though, but may be slower.
[18:46] <BashItOut> NiCK_NaME: Not much, anything you wanted?
[18:47] <NiCK_NaME_> BashItOut yeah actually their is... but i was just trying to figure out how to ask
[18:47] <NiCK_NaME_> :P
[18:47] <x-X-x> i want to add a upto date alien arena 2008 repository. Is it okay to add a repository from packages.debian.org ??
[18:47] <rmn> lightning 0.9 worked with 8.04 after installing some library.  0.8 works with 8.10, but i can't get 0.9 to work.  suggestions as to which library to install?
[18:48] <erUSUL> x-X-x: better get it from www.getdeb.net
[18:48] <Cobra_Fast> genii im afk now
[18:48] <epitaph> Figured I would just go for it, but, external usb keyboards used to work in ubuntu if I just plugged them in. For some raeson, I have to reboot with the USB keyboard plugged in now, does anyone have an idea why I can't just plug them in and use them once in the OS? thanks.
[18:50] <kansan> how do i install xmms2 for ubuntu?
[18:50] <zinake> epitaph: i haven't had this issue.  I plug and unplug my usb keyboard anytime and it is recognized by Ubunut
[18:50] <mcbrided> is there a good resource that explains the fire structure of the ubuntu kernel source?  I just did a git to download the source and am attempting to learn how to add system calls and whatnot
[18:50] <kansan> why does audacious constantly crash
[18:50] <x-X-x> erUSUL: its not on there they have 2007 i need 2008
[18:50] <epitaph> zinake: yeah, that's how it used to work for me
[18:50] <NiCK_NaME_> Does Anyone know how to Install XGL/Compiz ?  I read about it and look at how to install it and it said: If you are new to ubuntu, or dont know what your doing... get a Veteran Linux user to Help you .... i have NO CLUE what i am doing...
[18:50] <epitaph> but then about a week or so ago it stopped working like that
[18:50] <epitaph> and i've tried various USB keyboards
[18:50] <rski> NiCK_NaME_: ubuntu comez with compiz by default
[18:50] <zinake> epitaph: sorry, i don't know how to fix it ; ;
[18:50] <leonida1> hi!! can someone help me with this problem .. everytime i try to install something appears this ... E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem
[18:51] <epitaph> =('
[18:51] <^paradox^> jim_p: ok i see. what about this dynamic link? what am i supposed to put there?
[18:51] <mcbrided> anyone able to give me a hand with the ubuntu kernel by chance?  or is there a better room to get support from?
[18:51] <Pici> leonida1: What happens if you run sudo dpkg --configure -a ?
[18:51] <NiCK_NaME_> rski: really ? how do i make it work ? i watched a video and they had a all kinds of stuff i dont...
[18:51] <jim_p> ^paradox^: what link?
[18:51] <zinake> epitaph: tho is sounds like the program that auto mounts stuff is borked, i'm just a linux newb, but that's how it appears
[18:51] <rmn> NiCK_NaME_: but you might have to enable a restricted driver for it to work/start.  that was the case on my laptop.
[18:52] <epitaph> zinake: hmm.
[18:52] <leonida1> pici: im new into this ... how can i do that
[18:52] <Qster> Pici: thank you for the help i figured out the problem was a permissions issue
[18:52] <rski> NiCK_NaME_: it's enabled when you installed ubuntu, no need to do anything
[18:52] <rski> NiCK_NaME_: well just config it :P
[18:52] <^paradox^> in the instructions at hp's site it says        1. Download the file to a convenient location (e.g., home directory or desktop, etc).
[18:52] <^paradox^>        2. Open a console/terminal and cd to the location where the installer was downloaded. (e.g., cd ~/Desktop)
[18:52] <^paradox^>        3. Type in and run this command: 'sh 2.8.9.run' < dynamic link needed>
[18:53] <jim_p> ^paradox^: dont put nothing and see how it goes
[18:53] <NiCK_NaME_> rmn: i did that... i got some cool graphics... and stuff like so, but nothing like the video....   where would i go to configure it ?  i just switched from windows to linux 3 days ago so all this is pretty foreign... to me want me to show you the website where i heard of this ?
[18:54] <epitaph> NiCK_NaME_: What kind of effects?
[18:54] <rmn> NiCK_NaME_, try ccsm in synaptic.  it's the compiz plugin manager
[18:54] <^paradox^> seriously?
[18:54] <Razzeal> evening'
[18:54] <rmn> NiCK_NaME_, also try windows-key plus tab just now
[18:54] <luminerd> Is there a terminal command to find out how much disk space there is on a particular drive
[18:55] <erUSUL> luminerd: df -h
[18:55] <NiCK_NaME_> OH WOW
[18:55] <NiCK_NaME_> HOLY CRAP!!!
[18:55] <jim_p> ^paradox^: yea, unless doing a hplip.run --help and it shows options
[18:55] <rmn> NiCK_NaME_, enjoy :)
[18:55] <e-ogma> I was running Azureus, and on a internet connection break a lost 5 data and torrent files. absolutely deleted! anyone can give me a clue on why this happend?
[18:55] <NiCK_NaME_> EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!! CHECK IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[18:55] <NiCK_NaME_> PRESS THE WINDOWS KEY + TAB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[18:55] <NiCK_NaME_> THATS SOOO FREAKING COOL!
[18:55] <genii> gaH
[18:56] <NiCK_NaME_> screw windows man
[18:56] <luminerd> erUSUL: Doesn't show the drive :/ I'm in a live CD does that change things
[18:56] <genii> Cobra_Fast: I'm back for the time being
[18:56] <Razzeal> it's not a windows key it's a superkey!
[18:56] <NiCK_NaME_> rmn: anymore cool trick DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!
[18:56] <erUSUL> luminerd: oops it only shows mounted filesystems
[18:56] <zafy> NiCK_NaME_, yeah I've known that one for a while
[18:56] <^paradox^> ok so i uninstall the hplip i have, install the one from hp's site? i hope it helps
[18:56] <rmn> NiCK_NaME_, there are plenty, but you will probably have to enable them separately.  use ccsm for that.
[18:56] <NiCK_NaME_> rmn:?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!
[18:56] <LonelyRacer> NiCK_NaME_: make cube :D
[18:57]  * Brent72 is having an audio problem, well i have none. I dl the alsa driver and used archive manager to extract it, but when it goes to extract it it says command line error
[18:57] <luminerd> Well I am running System Utility liveCD but I need to know the path to the external hard drive
[18:57] <LonelyRacer> with ctrl + alt + mouse hover will see cube rotate :D much set it on tho

[18:59] <kansan> i have 4GB of memory in 32 bit ubuntu hardy.  is there a way to get ubuntu to see all 4GB of my memory?
[18:59] <genii> kansan: smp kernel
[18:59] <erUSUL> luminerd: "sudo fdisk -l" or "ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/"
[18:59] <kansan> genii, whats that?  is it bad to use?  stable?
[18:59] <Guinnesss> Hi there. What is the correct options for mounting ntfs filesystem in order to use them as usual. By that I mean, just allow everybody and anybody to access the ntfs partitions? Currently I have "defaults" in fstab.
[18:59] <erUSUL> !generic
[18:59] <rmn> NiCK_NaME_, don't see why virtualbox would require reinstall?  ccsm has many, many options, so don't mess with too many options at the same time.  then you will know which to revert back
[19:00] <NiCK_NaME_> rmn: okay thanks...   !!! thats the coolest thing... WOW screw windows areo forreal
[19:00] <erUSUL> NiCK_NaME_: use simple-ccsm (install it and a new button will appear on system>Preferences>Appearance|Effects Tab )

[19:02] <leonida1> yes but nothing happen
[19:02] <NiCK_NaME_> rmn: no worries i got lots more things to play with then virtualbox i will try that agian a week from now or something
[19:03] <genii> kansan: They had previously a specific smp kernel but now you should use the server kernel to see all 4Gb of ram.
[19:03] <erUSUL> maniheer: ??
[19:03] <NiCK_NaME_> rmn: thanks alot man for the help!!!!
[19:03] <rmn> NiCK_NaME_, glad you got it to work

[19:03] <genii> kansan: If you have restricted drivers which rely on specifically i386 kernel, thay may not work afterwards
[19:03] <NiCK_NaME_> erUSUL: use simple-ccsm ?
[19:03] <NiCK_NaME_> their is more than 1 ccsm ?

[19:05] <erUSUL> luminerd: well you have to mount the partition first if you plan to store and image there
[19:05] <leonida1> erUSUL: when i run the command appears this dpkg: la operación solicitada precisa privilegios de superusuario
[19:05] <champy> ciao
[19:05] <NiCK_NaME_> erUSUL: oh so when i start ccsm... their is a "simple mode" option ? is that what your telling me ?

[19:06] <leonida1> erUSUL thank you let me go in there
[19:06] <erUSUL> luminerd: yes should work
[19:06] <kenporick> hello my serial mouse not working in gnome gui...works fine in winxp... http://pastebin.com/m7abb7263
[19:06] <luminerd> erUSUL: mount point does not exist..I thought I was naming the mount point?
[19:07] <erUSUL> luminerd: sudo mkdir /mnt/freeagent
[19:07] <erUSUL> luminerd:  a mount point is an already existing directory
[19:07] <luminerd> Oh okay cool
[19:07] <luminerd> Thank you so much erUSUL :D
[19:07] <erUSUL> luminerd: no problem
[19:08] <rmn> anyone got lightning 0.9 working in intrepid?
[19:08] <NiCK_NaME_> erUSUL: okay sooo cool, i will do that....   now 1 more question please ?    how about regular ccsm, should i get that later on ? to see the extra options ?  or is it not worth it if you got simple-ccsm ?
[19:08] <pointlessname> wep problem: i can't log into my secure network with my wep key.  should i use 128bit, 64 ascii, or 64bit hex?  i can log into my neighbor's unsecure network though.
[19:08] <erUSUL> NiCK_NaME_: on depends on the other so both will be installed
[19:08] <pointlessname> the wep key is correct though
[19:08] <Cobra_Fast> genii im back
[19:08] <Cobra_Fast> genii u wrote something?
[19:09] <NiCK_NaME_> erUSUL: okay now im con fused   so when i get this sudo apt-get install simple-ccsm  i will have regual ccsm too ?
[19:09] <_haywire_> pointlessname why not use wpa?
[19:10] <erUSUL> NiCK_NaME_: yep simple-ccsm depends on ccsm so it is installed when you install it
[19:10] <pointlessname> umm well i don't know if i have wpa
[19:10] <pointlessname> how do i use wpa?

[19:12] <Qster> any idea how to make a folder accessible for windows? i shared the folder thru properties however it is saying i do not have access on vista
[19:12] <AzizLight> hi everybody
[19:12] <_haywire_> i myself had problems using the gui stuff.... i switched to manual connecting and have had pretty good luck.... o
[19:13] <AzizLight> I want to buy a laptop and install ubuntu on it, what do you suggest I buy so that most (all) of the hardware will work?
[19:13] <pointlessname> well i don't really know how to do that
[19:13] <zinake> Qster: are you using samba?
[19:14] <Qster> zinake: yes
[19:14] <ericvw> What is the current Ubuntu way of installing python 2.6 currently?
[19:14] <_haywire_> pointlessname -- hold on i know a good link to walk you through trying it....
[19:14] <zinake> Qster: did you set up your smbpasswd file?
[19:14] <Qster> zinake: maybe not?
[19:14] <matthijs_> Cansomeone help me with compiz?
[19:14] <Qster> zinake: trying to access ubuntu folder from windows machine different users
[19:15] <_haywire_> pointlessname -- go to the synaptic package manager and install wpa_supplicant
[19:15] <Qster> zinake: to be honest i rather not have a password
[19:15] <Qster> zinake would just like it to just have access to the folder
[19:15] <matthijs_> can someone helping me with compiz, i'm getting this "error": Checking for Xgl: not present.
[19:16] <zinake> Qster: i'm not sure how to set it up w/o a password, but after you add a user and a password, you can make it a networked drive from windows
[19:16] <Mixed_--_> anyone knows of a utility to handle my wireless connections????
[19:16] <_Zeus_> matthijs_: do you have the restricted drivers enabled?
[19:16] <_Zeus_> matthijs_: what graphics card?
[19:16] <_haywire_> QSter --- there's two smb packages that need to be installed to allow windows to see ubuntu....
[19:17] <matthijs_> _Zeus_, nvidia geforece 8400M GT, drivers are installed
[19:17] <Qster> _haywire_: which two would those be?
[19:17] <zinake> Qster: i think you could also set up a quest login with samba, but it would be very unsecure
[19:17] <_Zeus_> matthijs_: you might want to install the package nvidia-glx-new, then run "sudo nvidia-xconfig"
[19:17] <_Zeus_> matthijs_: after you have done that, log out and log back in
[19:18] <pointlessname> haywire: any luck on that link?
[19:18] <matthijs_> _Zeus_, it says it's already installed
[19:19] <devsoul> hmm what is the best virtual machine for ubuntu ?
[19:19] <harisund> devsoul: Is Ubuntu going to be the host or the guest?
[19:19] <genii> Cobra_Fast: Around?
[19:19] <Qster> zinake: well i can see the folder on windows machine but when i double click it it will not let me in
[19:19] <_haywire_> pointlessname one sec
[19:19] <yao_ziyuan> is there a way to let the computer compare a md5sum result with a given md5 hash string?
[19:19] <mcbrided> I just added a source file to my ubuntu kernel source...what Makefile do I need to edit to add this?
[19:19] <devsoul> harisund, now i`m using ubuntu
[19:19] <devsoul> but need XP for some programs
[19:19] <ChrisSnyder> @devsoul. with a ubuntu host, virtual box is the best
[19:19] <devsoul> and thing to install virutal machine
[19:19] <ChrisSnyder> in my opinion
[19:19] <devsoul> have any problems with Network ?
[19:19] <harisund> yeah virtualBox is a good idea too
[19:20] <_haywire_> Qster you need smbclient & smbfs
[19:20] <DigitalFiz> vmware server is great too and its free
[19:20] <harisund> VirtualBox creates its own internal NAT .. haven't had any problems so far, but it becomes a pain if you want to access the virtual machine from outside
[19:20] <zinake> Qster: sounds like you have it set to browsable = yes in your smb.conf file and guest = no
[19:20] <mEck0> hi! Is it possible to enable CONFIG_LATENCYTOP in the kernel without rebuilding it?
[19:20] <DigitalFiz> harisund, yeah thats the problems ive been having
[19:20] <Qster> so if i add guest = yes it should allow me to get in?
[19:21] <zinake> Qster: if you set it to guest = yes, then i think it would work.  you need to reset samba in order for it to take effect
[19:21] <zinake> Qster: i think so
[19:21] <harisund> DigitalFiz: I believe you can do some stuff like port forwarding. Otherwise, I prefer VMware virtual server since it creates a new network interface
[19:21] <Mixed_--_> anyone know of another wireless utility besides "network"???
[19:22] <Qster> zinake: unfortunatley did not work
[19:22] <zinake> Qster: i skimmed over that part of samba b/c i wanted it to be a tad bit more secure since i'm on a laptop
[19:22] <Qster> zinake: still says access denied
[19:22] <zinake> Qster: did you reset your samba server?
[19:22] <_haywire_> Qster do you have smbclient & smbfs installed
[19:22] <Qster> _haywire_: yes
[19:23] <Qster> zinake: i did /etc/init.d/samba restart is that correct?
[19:23] <zinake> Qster: sorry, i don't remember the command to do it, i just rebooted when i was messing with it.  that sounds correct

[19:27] <zinake> Qster: sorry, when you tried resetting the samba server

[19:28] <simak04> heya~ if anyone has a minute: I get an error when I do # make when instaling compat-wireless
[19:28] <zinake> Qster: it might be smb restart instead of samba restart

[19:31] <luminerd> Cool thank you, couldn't see it :P
[19:31] <Mixed_--_> Mixed_--_: download "network manager", it is beta software but it works great!  "network manager" will help you manage your wireless connectivity whevever you go
[19:31] <luminerd> and can I change the password for sudo?
[19:31] <zinake> Qster: do you want read/write access or just read?
[19:32] <iiiiiiiiii> u mean root pw change
[19:32] <Pici> luminerd: sudo is your password.

[19:32] <ChrisSnyder> thanks mixed, i'll try it
[19:32] <nnull> is there anyway to grep text?, like open a txt file and grep it so it only returns lines with the string in it?

[19:33] <luminerd> How can I disable sudo then? I don't want the people using the machines to have much priveleges
[19:33] <Pici> luminerd: If that user is in the admin group, yes.

[19:39] <m000gle> Hi.  I've just found out that my university network is going to be limiting the number of new Internet connections can make in the span of an hour (in an attempt to limit BitTorrent usage).  Does anyone know if there is a way to keep track of the number of new connections, similar to how bandwidth monitors record your usage?
[19:39] <Pici> Mixed_--_: Sure, just clarifying
[19:40] <Mixed_--_> nando,  sounds like it's your network connection, try rebooting your dsl or cable modem
[19:40] <nubie> is it possible to start different jvms with different browsers?
[19:40] <pat1942> danbh_intrepid, the motherboard is an ecs gf7 about a year old and an intel petium 2 core, got both from tigerdirect. it isn't brand new top of the line so why would intrepid work better?
[19:40] <ubuntu> how can i mount acorrupt ntfs partition,, i havent acces to my windows so i can close it properly, is there any command or sonfware i can use to recober my info?

[19:42] <osubuck> nubie, yes
[19:42] <Mixed_--_> <----using hardy, ubuntu studio
[19:42] <nubie> is there anyway to have different jvms running for different browsers
[19:42] <pat1942> but the installer is the same right? if hardy won't boot and fedora, opensuse, pclinuxos etc won't boot what would make intrepid boot? just curious
[19:43] <nubie> caus it all seems to run in one jvm. which occasionally clashes
[19:43] <simak04> is there  a line or app to chekc how is kernel configurated?
[19:43] <danbh_intrepid> pat1942: hmmm, if ALL those wont boot, I guess you're right
[19:43] <Omeg1> how do i setup nat for using virtualbox on hardy henron

[19:46] <bandoor> comps got xp, tried installing ubuntu (but wont work) so im just removing it
[19:46] <_haywire_> bandoor: reinsert the disc and run it until you get to manual partition selection and delete the linux and swap partition
[19:47] <bandoor> thats the problem, cant run ubuntu
[19:47] <bandoor> it shows up on boot selection but whenever i try to boot i get kicked to busybox
[19:47] <LuYu> does kopete require kwallet to save passwords?
[19:47] <nubie> so does no one hav any ideas about my question
[19:47] <kansan> Pici, how do we get a UI for xmms?
[19:48] <danbh_intrepid> bandoor: boot the windows cd into recovery mode, and run fixmbr        that'll fix the boot problems.  Run any partitioner to delete the partitions...
[19:48] <turtle_> movie player plays wma's,
[19:48] <Pici> kansan: xmms isn't in the repositories  any longer.  I'm not sure if xmms2 has a gui.

[20:03] <Agent_bob> luminerd 644 is common for things like that.
[20:04] <IamSOG> they should have use a pengiun
[20:04] <Agent_bob> luminerd  755 for things that need to be executed   644 for things that only need read
[20:04] <BoterhamMetKaas> o/ hi all :)

[20:05] <mistform> echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card1/pcm0p/oss
[20:05] <Agent_bob> luminerd i answered that.   ^   755 if you have to exec it.  644 otherwise
[20:06] <luminerd> Oh the number is the mode
[20:06] <turtle_> Intuitive:  a logout required for the change to take place?
[20:06] <luminerd> Sorry
[20:06] <thiebaude> agent_bob:so i just you thunar, right now im using fluxbox
[20:06] <luminerd> Thank you Agent_bob :D
[20:06] <IntuitiveNipple> turtle: yes, and you can't dynamically switch to dual-screens unless both are connected when X starts
[20:06] <thiebaude> !x
[20:07] <IntuitiveNipple> turtle_: So at a minimum you have to log-out/log-in if you change what is connected
[20:07] <Agent_bob> thiebaude lets see if anyone else might know a way to use nautilus without it taking over x
[20:07] <turtle_> ok, logging out.
[20:07] <feach> can't get my geforce7900gs running, fails loading the nvidia kernel module, i'v reinstalled the restricted modules, iv'e wiped everything cleaned and tried install it all again over and over,   this is fresh install, i installed, then updated, rebooted, then install nvidia driver
[20:07] <turtle_> its connected from my windows partition
[20:07] <thiebaude> agent_bob:yea, i would love to have the answer also
[20:07] <luminerd> So can I easily copy over all the emerald stuff from one user to another?
[20:07] <luminerd> Or is it easier just to reinstall all themes
[20:07] <mistform> can someone help me figure out how to get my sound working? I muffed everything up trying to get sound to work in Enemy Territory
[20:08] <Agent_bob> can anyone tell me and thiebaude how to use nautilus without it hijacking the de ?
[20:08] <turtle_> Intuitive: Should I disable the cube and AWN manager?
[20:08] <FFForever> when will the next release be out?
[20:09] <FFForever> 9.(04?)
[20:09] <Pici> Agent_bob, thiebaude: I would it it would be: nautilus --no-desktop
[20:09] <Pici> !ibex | FFForever
[20:09] <Agent_bob> Pici thanks.  i'll go edit my blackbox menu now.
[20:09] <osubuck> will there be a way to update to the latest ubuntu without burning another cd when its available?
[20:09] <Hotbird> hi i have a second ext3 formatted hd in ubuntu but it says i have 4 gb in use... no file there.. can someone explain?
[20:10] <monstrfolk> does anyone have any experience with installing a nvidia and ati video card at thesame time
[20:10] <unop> osubuck, just use your package manager to update all packages, that should be enough
[20:10] <osubuck> ahh ok
[20:11] <unop> osubuck, actually wait, which version of ubuntu are you on now?
[20:11] <osubuck> hardy heron
[20:11] <Cew27> hey can anyone help me install hardy on my asus p5q deluxe mobo
[20:11] <thiebaude> agent_bob:do you type that into the terminal?
[20:11] <thiebaude> do
[20:11] <monstrfolk> does anyone have any experience with installing a nvidia and ati video card at thesame time
[20:11] <unop> osubuck, ahh, sorry, i assumed you were on a pre-release of 8.10 - you can follow the normal !upgrade process
[20:11] <sasha_levin> Hey Guys
[20:12] <unop> !upgrade > osubuck
[20:12] <osubuck> what process would that be? lol
[20:12] <thiebaude> thanks pici
[20:12] <sasha_levin> I've installed Ubuntu, it detects my soundcard as a 5.1, I've also set it to 5.1 in speaker arrangement in xine
[20:12] <trucjensen> Hi. Does anyone know the default password to use, when I type su in a console?
[20:12] <Agent_bob> thiebaude you can.  i edited my menu
[20:12] <osubuck> thank you
[20:12] <sasha_levin> But I don't get any surround controls in alsamixer
[20:12] <unop> !sudo | trucjensen
[20:12] <sasha_levin> And it outputs 2 channels
[20:12] <sasha_levin> Can someone help me please?
[20:12] <Agent_bob> and yes thank you Pici    that worked wonders.
[20:13] <thiebaude> agent_bob:i typed that command into the terminal
[20:13] <Hotbird> hi i have a second ext3 formatted hd in ubuntu but it says i have 4 gb in use... no file there.. can someone explain?
[20:13] <turtle_> Intuitive: its still not working after logout
[20:14] <unop> Hotbird, 5% of extX space is reserved for super-user blocks
[20:14] <Agent_bob> thiebaude you could also make a shell wrapper for that.   as root   echo '/etc/X11/blackbox/blackbox-menu
[20:14] <Agent_bob> woops my bad.
[20:14] <Hotbird> unop: m ok tnx
[20:14] <thiebaude> thanks agent_bob
[20:14] <IntuitiveNipple> turtle_: which 'it' ? btw, to your earlier question... I have compiz and the cube running on all the nvidia screens
[20:14] <trucjensen> Thanks for the answer, but I would like to be able to initiate a superuser session - so that I don't have to type sudo all the time...
[20:15] <IntuitiveNipple> trucjensen: sudo -i
[20:15] <NiCK_NaME> Hello, i was wondering if anyone has a couple simple answere's for me...
[20:15] <Agent_bob> thiebaude you could also make a shell wrapper for that.   as root   echo 'nautilus --no-desktop' > /usr/local/bin/nautilus.others ;chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/nautilus.others
[20:15] <bobertdos> NiCK_NaME: Did you ever get your hard drive worked out?
[20:15] <trucjensen> thanks 'Nipple. I'll give that a shot.
[20:16] <Agent_bob> thiebaude and when in gnome run nautilus when not in gnome run nautilus.others   ;/
[20:16] <NiCK_NaME> bobertdos: yeah i did, but i screwed it up agian and yeah...
[20:16] <trucjensen> Mr. Nipple! That works like a charm...
[20:16] <bobertdos> NiCK_NaME: Oi vei!! What did you do now??? :p
[20:16] <thiebaude> ok, agent_bob, thanks again
[20:16] <unop> trucjensen, sudo -i  will give you a super-user shell
[20:16] <supertanker> *sigh* I can't get Xubuntu to install MySQL from the downloaded .deb files I copied over
[20:17] <unop> supertanker, and how are you installing it?
[20:17] <bobertdos> supertanker: Is there a reason the repos don't work for you?
[20:18] <supertanker> bobertdos: I have dialup
[20:18] <osubuck> so what's the favorite IRC client in here
[20:18] <bobertdos> supertanker: good answer
[20:18] <supertanker> osubuck, mine's IRSSI
[20:18] <NiCK_NaME> bobertdos: well i been having this on on going battle with virtualbox... and it yeah... well long story short, i can NEVER get virtualbox to work and this last time it screwed something up i have no idead how or what and i had to re-install ubuntu (giving me horriable flash backs of MS Windows) and now my drives wont mount agian...
[20:18] <IntuitiveNipple> supertanker: probably missing dependencies?
[20:19] <unop> supertanker, so how are you installing mysql exactly?
[20:19] <fivre> does the ubuntu php package have mb_string enabled out of the box?
[20:19] <voodoox> hi
[20:19] <xai> Is there a way to setup VNC to accept an external connection w/o  keybouard interaction?
[20:20] <voodoox> hi dudes
[20:20] <bobertdos> NiCK_NaME: Unfortunately, my Virtualbox experience is pretty minimal, not sure I'll be of much help.
[20:20] <eitreach> Has II Beta been released today?
[20:20] <Kartagis> how do I empty a file?
[20:21] <bobertdos> Kartagis: empty? you mean delete?
[20:21] <kulight> yes beta is out http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/8.10/
[20:21] <homast> rm filename && touch filename
[20:21] <unop> Kartagis, from the command line?
[20:21] <NiCK_NaME> bobertbos: no problem its given me so many issues i gave up on it...
[20:21] <eitreach> kulight: thanks.
[20:21] <homast> quit
[20:21] <NiCK_NaME> bobertdos: do you know how to mount USB Drives ? and have them auto mount ?
[20:22] <supertanker> unop, I did it the first time with the apt-get system. I tried copying over the entire /var/cache/apt dir, but it's not taking it from there :/
[20:22] <Kartagis> bobertdos, not delete,  just empty. unop: yes
[20:22] <bmm> I have intrepid running and I can't keep the login tune from playing. Using gnome-sound-properties to disable the login sound doesn't seem to effect it. I can't find a bug report for it, what am I overlooking?
[20:22] <bobertdos> NiCK_NaME: with or without virtualbox?
[20:22] <supertanker> I'll just re-download it
[20:22] <supertanker> Again.
[20:22] <unop> Kartagis,  you could do this.   :> filename
[20:22] <NiCK_NaME> bobertdos: i have the awesome conversation, and still do on how to do that, but it is on a USB drive i cannot mount so it is doing me ABSOLUTLY no good LOL!!!
[20:23] <NiCK_NaME> bobertdos: without virtualbox  i gave up on it...
[20:23] <unop> supertanker, you'll need to use dpkg -i for that ..  sudo dpkg -i  file.deb
[20:23] <spiekey> hello
[20:23] <luminerd> How do you copy a directory
[20:23] <NiCK_NaME> bobertdos: i get goose bumps with i hear the word virtualbox now
[20:23] <spiekey> what tool can i use to manage/scan wirless networks? (gnome)
[20:23] <feach> Hi, nvidia module doesn't want to load using a 7900gs,  first install,  I installed then did normal updates, rebooted, then install nvidia new driver and rebooted, didn't want to load nvidia.ko and bootedup using low res, I stoped gdm, reinstalled restricted kernel modules via command line, rebooted still won't load, edited xorg.conf to use nv driver,  used synaptic to uninstall all nvidia stuff, rebooted, reinstalled all nvidia s
[20:23] <feach> tuff, still no go, any idea's ?
[20:23] <supertanker> unop, tried that
[20:23] <unop> luminerd, cp -a source  dest
[20:23] <luminerd> Thanks :D
[20:23] <NiCK_NaME> bobertdos: virtualbox is the devil in computer application form...
[20:23] <osubuck> ok one last question, is there anything i should know about security on IRC, like spoofing my IP or anything like that? are there any measures i need to take for security?
[20:24] <shepherd> who is the best person at linux in the world?
[20:24] <bobertdos> NiCK_NaME: Well, again, if devices (especially flash drives), don't automount when you plug them in, something is fairly amiss.
[20:24] <unop> supertanker, ok, i assume it failed, how did it fail exactly?
[20:24] <IntuitiveNipple> osubuck: yeah, don't tell everyone you're in Columbus :p
[20:24] <osubuck> no really though IntuitiveNipple > any ideas?
[20:24] <IntuitiveNipple> osubuck: basically, there's nothing to worry about unless you start running scripts that accept connections
[20:24] <unop> shepherd, Linus Torvalds probably
[20:24] <osubuck> ahh ok
[20:25] <luminerd> How can I get rid of the System> Administration panel for certain user?
[20:25] <unop> shepherd, but that's a vague question.
[20:25] <NiCK_NaME> bobertdos: yeah... its horriable
[20:25] <osubuck> not in columbus :D near central ohio though
[20:25] <supertanker> unop...er....it worked this time
[20:25] <unop> supertanker, ok :)
[20:25] <IntuitiveNipple> osubuck: thats roadrunner ... misnaming their nodes :)
[20:26] <supertanker> Wait
[20:26] <bobertdos> luminerd: Why would you need to?
[20:26] <supertanker> It says that apche2 needs a certain package, but it's not installed yet
[20:26] <supertanker> Ye the package is in the command line
[20:26] <luminerd> bobertdos: just don't want them messing with stuff
[20:26] <bobertdos> luminerd: so take away they're admin privileges
[20:26] <luminerd> bobertdos: they don't have them, but the menu's still tehere
[20:26] <linkmaster03> Why have my desktop shortcuts changed to *desktop files and are not icons all of a sudden?
[20:27] <bobertdos> luminerd:  *their -- Well, if they don't have admin priviliges, they shouldn't be able to access any of that anyway.
[20:27] <joerack> does anybody know how to create the effect that windows has with this program? http://www.360desktop.com/
[20:27] <shepherd> unop is he related to benjamin linus
[20:27] <Camel> giasas pedia
[20:28] <DavidCanarias> I have a foto shot I made with Totem from a video I had. It is png format which my player cant read. Does anyone know how to convert easily to a jpg format which anything reads? Thks
[20:28] <luminerd> Ok I suppose it doesn't hurt being there
[20:29] <turtle_> Intuitive: twin view works, but separate x screen doesnt?
[20:29] <rampageoberon> Hi, I started to have problems with samba shares after installing wine. The shares would not mount but as soon as i delete wine its fine. what could the problem be?
[20:29] <unop> shepherd, i don't know who that is - but i should think not - but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus_Torvalds
[20:30] <MetaMorfoziS> Hi all
[20:30] <MetaMorfoziS> How can i tunel _any_ outgoing connection from my machine via a remote server?
[20:31] <MetaMorfoziS> i'm at the ssh -D 999 user@host stufff, but  i don't know how can i manage out that every connection get redirected to localhost:9999
[20:31] <IntuitiveNipple> MetaMorfoziS: an openVPN tunnel and a default route (i.e. sudo ip route default dev tun0)
[20:31] <Gin> is there any good app for time management?
[20:31] <mike^> how can I get flash player to work in firefox?
[20:31] <MetaMorfoziS> IntuitiveNipple > yes, but that needs a server side stuff
[20:31] <MetaMorfoziS> and i have no acces for that, i'm just a simple user, so i can't install anything here
[20:31] <genii> fivre: Yes. A screenshot of mbstring info as provided by phpinfo on a default install http://i37.tinypic.com/4l6ouv.png
[20:31] <luminerd> Is add/remove programs a global operation? It will remove them for all users?
[20:32] <rampageoberon> MetaMorfoziS:  http://www.brandonhutchinson.com/ssh_tunnelling.html
[20:32] <IntuitiveNipple> MetaMorfoziS: okay, SSH then
[20:32] <NiCK_NaME> Anyone know how to use CCSM ?
[20:32] <IntuitiveNipple> MetaMorfoziS: ssh -R ...
[20:32] <MetaMorfoziS> rampageoberon > thanks, i check
[20:32] <xai> I lost my toolbar, how do I get it back?
[20:33] <xai> at the top... not sure what to call it.
[20:33] <voodoox> add a new tool bar
[20:33] <voodoox> is work back
[20:33] <DavidCanarias> Does anyone know how to convert a png image to jpeg?? pease?
[20:33] <voodoox> just have to right click and then add new tool bar
[20:33] <feach> Hi, nvidia module doesn't want to load using a 7900gs,  first install,  I installed then did normal updates, rebooted, then install nvidia new driver and rebooted, didn't want to load nvidia.ko and bootedup using low res, I stoped gdm, reinstalled restricted kernel modules via command line, rebooted still won't load, edited xorg.conf to use nv driver,  used synaptic to uninstall all nvidia stuff, rebooted, reinstalled all nvidia s
[20:33] <feach> tuff, still no go, any idea's ?
[20:34] <voodoox> warren whats
[20:34] <sia-eXtreme> DavidCanarias , i think you can do it with gimp
[20:34] <IntuitiveNipple> feach: Usually, the clues are in the /var/log/Xorg.0.{log,old} and /var/log/kern.log
[20:34] <bobertdos> !flash | mike^
[20:35] <DavidCanarias> si-Extreme: Thks I will h ave a look
[20:35] <hiptobecubic> what does it mean when an application 'forks' ?
[20:35] <mike^> ty
[20:35] <IntuitiveNipple> DavidCanarias: Look at image-magik
[20:35] <bobertdos> hiptobecubic: It means it spawns a child process, one program running another.
[20:35] <DavidCanarias> IntuitiveNipple: Thks I will have a look.
[20:36] <feach> (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
[20:36] <IntuitiveNipple> DavidCanarias: Image-Magik has a bunch of command-line tools. It is used in the background by web-apps like G2 for thumbnailing and resizing
[20:36] <GOt-RooT> how   can  help   me  with  text to  speech
[20:37] <IntuitiveNipple> feach: There'll usually be additional clues as to why, in one or other of those log files
[20:38] <GOt-RooT> how   can  help   me  with  text to  speech (looking  for  someone   who try   to get it  work with  alsa))
[20:38] <feach> i see
[20:38] <IntuitiveNipple> GOt-RooT: text to speech is often very difficult to configure correctly; you should investigate Festival as one possible
[20:38] <sia-eXtreme> anybody know how can i mount a JFS drive ?
[20:38] <devsoul> plss tell me , whats better , vmware server or VirtualBox ?
[20:39] <IntuitiveNipple> GOt-RooT: I know a blind lad who spent over a month trying to perfect the set-up so he was happy
[20:39] <devsoul> for ubuntu
[20:39] <zabbadapp> will *buntu 8.10 repos have the new versions of i.e. VLC (0.9.2), eclipse (3.4), gimp (2.6.0), etc? Version refreshes are a bit far apart at times. (Eclipse is still 3.2 i 8.04).
[20:39] <mike^> I some how got firefox running from the directory /home/mike/zip/firefox should it be in a different directory for flash to work?
[20:39] <genii> DavidCanarias: As IntuitiveNipple says, imagemagick. Then use the program called "convert" which it installs to convert between formats. Or just load up your png in gimp and then save it as jpeg
[20:39] <DavidCanarias> sia-eXtreme: Thks, but couldn't see how to do it with gimp.
[20:39] <IntuitiveNipple> zabbadapp: Look for yourself: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=vlc&searchon=names&suite=intrepid&section=all
[20:39] <bobertdos> mike^: May I ask how/why it got set up like that?
[20:39] <GOt-RooT> but   Festival   is   just  working from shell
[20:40] <linkmaster03> Why have my desktop shortcuts changed to *desktop files and are not icons all of a sudden?
[20:40] <traskeee> http://pastebin.ca/1217215 bad screensaver locks every 10 mins, this is my ps aux. looking for ideas on what to kill
[20:40] <GOt-RooT>  iam  looking   for    something i can give  text and  speak
[20:40] <MetaMorfoziS> rampageoberon > that isn't what i need
[20:40] <IntuitiveNipple> GOt-RooT: have you seen this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TextToSpeech
[20:40] <MetaMorfoziS> but it is what i did
[20:41] <zabbadapp> IntuitiveNipple: yay for vlc!! :-) but eclipse is still 2 releases behind :-(
[20:41] <MetaMorfoziS> It creates a tunnel, that's okay
[20:41] <sia-eXtreme> DavidCanarias: see can you open it and save it with diffrent format ?
[20:41] <GOt-RooT>  my  english  is  bad  and  iam  try  to  fix  it  with   text to speech
[20:41] <bobertdos> !info festival | GOt-RooT
[20:41] <fous_> hi how do i make a script ?
[20:41] <MetaMorfoziS> but how can i redirect every connection via that?
[20:41] <GOt-RooT> yes
[20:41] <GOt-RooT>  but u see its  working  from  just  shell
[20:41] <IntuitiveNipple> zabbadapp: Eclipse is easy to install from the tarball though, it's just Java after all!
[20:41] <DavidCanarias> IntuitiveNipple: Where can I get Image-Magik from as a debian package???
[20:41] <GOt-RooT>  and   conflict with    alsa
[20:41] <rsc-> why should i upgrade from eclipse 3.2 to 3.4?
[20:41] <unop> !info imagemagick | DavidCanarias
[20:41] <rsc-> im using eclipse from the ubuntu repositories
[20:42] <rsc-> it works fine for me. what am i missing?
[20:42] <rsc-> !info eclipse
[20:42] <DavidCanarias> genii: will try gimp again and try saving as jpeg
[20:42] <IntuitiveNipple> DavidCanarias: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/imagemagick
[20:42] <rsc-> !inof vlc
[20:42] <rsc-> !info vlc
[20:42] <IntuitiveNipple> DavidCanarias: sudo apt-get install imagemagik

[20:44] <linkmaster03> with what devsoul
[20:44] <devsoul> what i put for emulation for windows ... ?
[20:44] <unop> devsoul, what are you aiming to do ?
[20:44] <devsoul> i have some programs for windows..
[20:44] <linkmaster03> well you can try running them through wine, devsoul
[20:44] <devsoul> lineage2 ? :)
[20:44] <artworx> i have a little problem with /etc/hosts, values work as normal for root, but unknown host as a normal user
[20:45] <linkmaster03> devsoul: try typing this in terminal: sudo aptitude install wine
[20:45] <sia-eXtreme> mount : wrong fs type , badoption , bad superblock on /dev/sda1 missing codepage or helper program , or other error
[20:45] <DavidCanarias> genii: sia-eXtreme: IntuitiveNipple: Thks very much I did as genii said using Gimp just saved it as a jpeg image and that was it! Easy when you know how so many thanks to you all.
[20:45] <devsoul> linkmaster03, i have wine , but i need windows emulation , detect video drivers , and internet ;)
[20:45] <kho_zhi> asd
[20:45] <sia-eXtreme> ;)
[20:45] <linkmaster03> devsoul: you can setup a windows virtual machine
[20:45] <linkmaster03> devsoul: wine does all that though
[20:46] <xai> Whats the panel called that is at the top  with the Logout and volume control?
[20:46] <xai> I lost it, thought it was gnome-panel, but its something else
[20:46] <devsoul> linkmaster03, under wine play games ?
[20:47] <linkmaster03> devsoul: yes i searched the appdb, lineage2 looks like it works. http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=2273
[20:47] <sia-eXtreme> there is no help for my JFS mounting problem ?
[20:47] <GOt-RooT> who  i can   make  my   vodafone   usb  stick   work
[20:47] <GOt-RooT> it  work  like  dream  in  windows
[20:48] <GuraX> xai: might I am wrong but I think it is a normal panel but with "special" panel widgets
[20:49] <fous_> what file extension do i use for scripting
[20:49] <sia-eXtreme> xai: can you right click on downside panel and add a panel ?
[20:49] <sia-eXtreme> new panel
[20:50] <sia-eXtreme> and then  on new panel right clcik > add to panel
[20:50] <sia-eXtreme> and add what you need
[20:51] <adv> hey i'm installing heron and the resizing partition bar is stuck at 0% for 10 minutes no
[20:51] <adv> is that normal?
[20:51] <adv> top shows that it only uses the 7% of the cpu
[20:51] <adv> which is kinda odd
[20:51] <turtle_> adv: wait
[20:51] <genii> fous_: filename.sh
[20:52] <sia-eXtreme> can anybody help me with mounting JFS filesystem partition ?
[20:52] <ntebis> helo
[20:52] <ntebis> hello
[20:52] <unop> fous_, unix/linux don't rely on file extensions to make decisions - shell scripts usually have no file extensions - but it might be better to use something like .sh or .bash for your identification
[20:52] <sia-eXtreme> xai : you do that?
[20:53] <Prose> hey, I can't get avant-window-manager to startup on system boot
[20:53] <gustavold> I have wpa wireless manual configuration (set with Network Configuration Manager) in my hardy. But everytime I reboot network doesn't come back. Do you know why?
[20:53] <Prose> I added it to the things I want to startup, but it disobeys
[20:54] <adv> turtle_: ..
[20:54] <sia-eXtreme> Prose: try to add it to system > prefrences > session
[20:54] <jelica> hallo
[20:54] <sia-eXtreme> Prose: add avant-window-navigator
[20:54] <turtle_> adv:  maybe restart
[20:54] <SebNaitsabes> jelica: hello
[20:55] <adv> turtle_: damn stop the resizing process in the middle? that could lead to bad things.
[20:55] <genii> unop: If no !#/bin/sh in the file it takes a hint from file extension of .sh
[20:55] <Prose> sia-eXtreme: I did that already
[20:55] <Prose> sia-eXtreme: and thats where the working stops
[20:55] <unop> genii, no, that's not true .. the kernel is set to use a POSIX shell to process the script if no shebang is used
[20:55] <unop> genii, even without a file extension..
[20:56] <x2o> hi
[20:56] <sia-eXtreme> Prose: you computer stop working ?
[20:57] <leslieviljoen> a
[20:57] <Prose> sia-eXtreme: um no, I mean, "working stops" as in thats where to procesdure to get it to boot goes awry and I come here to cry
[20:57] <ntebis> hi
[20:58] <ntebis> can someone help me
[20:58] <sia-eXtreme> Prose: i don't know ;(
[20:58] <sia-eXtreme> :(
[20:58] <sia-eXtreme> sorry
[20:59] <genii> unop: Interesting. I've had troubles previously where it got confused as to what to use to run a file without the shebang
[20:59] <sia-eXtreme> there is no help for JFS partition mounting ?
[21:00] <jstanford1109> hello
[21:00] <unop> genii, well, without a shebang  /bin/sh is almost always used - but not by virtue of a file extension hint
[21:00] <sia-eXtreme> Prose: what did you exactly add to session ??
[21:01] <sia-eXtreme>  avant-window-manager ?
[21:01] <jstanford1109> where can i get a link or file to upgrade from 5.10 to the next
[21:02] <ian_`> what command can I use to limit the characters per line
[21:02] <ian_`> so it only prints those lines
[21:02] <ian_`> o.o
[21:02] <ian_`> when I cat a file
[21:02] <sia-eXtreme> prose : are you there ?
[21:02] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: what is the problem with mounting?
[21:02] <Prose> sia-eXtreme: yeah and as the command, I pointed it to the exetuble I click on to start the app
[21:02] <jstanford1109> anyone?
[21:02] <sia-eXtreme> try :  instead of manager use navigation
[21:03] <sia-eXtreme> leslieviljoen:
[21:03] <unop> ian_`, cut
[21:03] <sia-eXtreme> after power lose
[21:03] <sia-eXtreme> i can't mount it anymore
[21:03] <sia-eXtreme> mount : wrong fs type , badoption , bad superblock on /dev/sda1 missing codepage or helper program , or other error
[21:03] <unop> ian_`, thought, "limit" is a vague term - what do you mean exactly?  limit the length, limit by pattern, limit by type, etc?
[21:03] <IntuitiveNipple> jstanford1109: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/UpgradeFromOldVersion
[21:03] <Prose> sia-eXtreme: Im not sure I understand, what do you mean "instead of manager" ?
[21:03] <jstanford1109> thank you
[21:04] <sia-eXtreme> avant-window-navigator
[21:04] <sia-eXtreme> instead of avant-window-manager
[21:04] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: that's bad news. It's likely mangled. Your best bet is to look at the jfs utils to try and repair the partition
[21:04] <Prose> sia-eXtreme: ah ok!
[21:04] <Prose> trying then
[21:06] <sia-eXtreme> leslieviljoen: i think it is a safe filesystem, is ext3 better ? is it better to re format my drive ?
[21:06] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: JFS is known to be very stable
[21:06] <IntuitiveNipple> sia-eXtreme: Have you done fsck.jfs ?
[21:06] <sia-eXtreme> leslieviljoen: so i give it one more chance
[21:06] <sia-eXtreme> i can't remember
[21:07] <DrX> I'm unable to mount a remote windows share using mount -t cifs //<ip>/share /mnt/usb... why is it asking for a password when there is none (Nautilus browsing works but, as you know, file transfer is unreliable)?
[21:07] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: yes, don't you need to repair it? Have you tried?
[21:07] <sia-eXtreme> no
[21:07] <sia-eXtreme> but i haven't important data on it
[21:07] <dmh65> intrepid Ibex heh!
[21:07] <hwilde> how can I change the timeout how long ssh tries before giving up ?
[21:07] <sledge> Does anyone know what .daa files are, and how i can extract them in linux
[21:07] <sia-eXtreme> leslieviljoen: i'll try to repair it now
[21:08] <dmh65> whats it like?
[21:08] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: fsck.jfs
[21:08] <sia-eXtreme> leslieviljoen: it's /dev/sda1 what is the full command ?
[21:08] <DavidCanarias> sledge: Try typing in google   .daa files  and see what comes up. It might help u
[21:09] <sia-eXtreme> Error: Cannot open device /dev/sda1
[21:09] <IntuitiveNipple> hwilde: ssh -o  ConnectTimeout
[21:09] <dmh65> .daa is a format for a certain burner
[21:09] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: fsck.jfs -n /dev/sda1
[21:09] <dmh65> which one I forget
[21:09] <sia-eXtreme> Error: Cannot open device /dev/sda1
[21:09] <DavidCanarias> Can I successfully take a single shot foto from a vide?? A good quality one????? Please
[21:09] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: not sure, check permissions?
[21:09] <sia-eXtreme> whats wrong with it ?
[21:10] <sia-eXtreme> ok
[21:10] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: did you sudo?
[21:10] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: also, use -n first, to just check
[21:10] <sia-eXtreme> now i sudo
[21:10] <Prose> sia-eXtreme: it worked, thanks
[21:10] <sia-eXtreme> ;)
[21:10] <dmh65> whoohoo
[21:10] <sia-eXtreme> ok
[21:10] <sia-eXtreme> it worked
[21:10] <sia-eXtreme> with sudo
[21:11] <FloodBot2> sia-eXtreme: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:11] <sia-eXtreme> Filesystem is dirty but is marked clean.  In its present state,
[21:11] <sia-eXtreme> the results of accessing /dev/sda1 (except by this utility) are undefined.
[21:11] <DavidCanarias> I have taken a single shot foto from a video using Totem and its successful thks to yr help at ubuntu, but the quality is iffy!! Can I improve on the quality or is that the way it is???
[21:11] <kesha> hi, i'm using url_regex -i /path/to/blockedsites, in squid, the problem is blockedsites is a very huge file, and squid is using 70% of cpu, so when y disable de url_regex, squid is using just 10-20% of cpu, is that normal? or i have to search another solution for block sites?
[21:12] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: well give it a bash then with -a
[21:12] <IntuitiveNipple> DavidCanarias: capturing stills from a video will almost always be poor quality compared to a still-photo since the resolution of the video is much lower
[21:12] <ian_`> how can I grep a file so that it only contains specified characters on each line, like it can only have [q,w,e,r,t] for example?
[21:12] <sia-eXtreme> http://paste.ubuntu.com/53271/
[21:13] <DavidCanarias> Hi again IntuitiveNipple: So really it's impossible to expect much more then?
[21:13] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: grep '[qwert]' <file>
[21:13] <ian_`> it can only contain those characters
[21:13] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: when choosing a new filesystem, look at this page: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/388
[21:13] <pen> anyone using mrxvt?
[21:14] <pen> the option for turning off scrollbar doesn't work
[21:14] <IntuitiveNipple> DavidCanarias: If the original image is low-resolution, there isn't a lot you can do to improve it. You can try smoothing and interpolation and bicubic resize, but you can't add anything to improve the true resolution
[21:14] <ian_`> leslieviljoen, what I mean is, it can only contain any combination of those characters on the line
[21:14] <dmh65> !ibex
[21:14] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: and any other character fails the test?
[21:14] <ian_`> yea
[21:15] <Jampiter> How can I make a folder into an ISO?
[21:15] <zcat[1]> Jampiter: mkisofs
[21:15] <FoobarWidget> does anybody here think that gimp should have a different name? if so, what name would you suggest?
[21:15] <pen> anyone using mrxvt?
[21:15] <sia-eXtreme> leslieviljoen: i saw a benchmark and there jfs was a good speed filesystem
[21:15] <Jampiter> zcat[1]: Is that a simple GUI software?
[21:16] <sia-eXtreme> would fsck.jfs -a help me ?
[21:16] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: jfs is light on CPU, XFS is on average faster since it's a bit lighter on disk
[21:16] <zcat[1]> No, just open a terminal and type "mkisofs -o foo.iso foo/"
[21:16] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: yes, that is what I said
[21:16] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: give it a bash with -a
[21:16] <zcat[1]> Jampiter: alternatively use brasero or k3b and 'burn' to an ISO image instead of a disk
[21:17] <Jampiter> Thanks :)
[21:17] <FoobarWidget> anyone?
[21:17] <zcat[1]> Jampiter: but to be honest mkisofs is easier and faster than using the gui
[21:17] <sia-eXtreme> leslieviljoen: very thnaks it fixed and i have my data , how can i format it with XFS ?
[21:17] <sia-eXtreme> :D
[21:17] <Jampiter> zcat[1]: How do I use it?
[21:18] <Jampiter> Whoops
[21:18] <Jampiter> You alrealdy said :p
[21:18] <leslieviljoen> sia-eXtreme: mkfs.xfs
[21:18] <Jampiter> Guess I should read :p
[21:18] <sia-eXtreme> thnks
[21:18] <jesus_> someone speak spanish?
[21:18] <sia-eXtreme> you're the man
[21:19] <mefisto__> Jampiter: mkisofs has many options too. type mkisofs --help or man mkisofs
[21:19] <Jampiter> Thanks mefisto__
[21:19] <DavidCanarias> IntuitiveNipple: Thks for your advice once again. The gimp business worked converting to jpeg no problem. I'm grateful to you and all the others who enter this site to collaborate and help each other in the Linux community. It's fantastic! Well done everyone
[21:19] <ian_`> leslieviljoen, what was the expression for that? o.o
[21:19] <pen> anyone using mrxvt?
[21:19] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: ah, thinking, brain slow today :-)
[21:20] <ian_`> leslieviljoen, np, im terrible with reg exp :|
[21:20] <pen> anyone using mrxvt?
[21:20] <pen> the option for turning off scrollbar doesn't work
[21:22] <PostersandGuitar> Is there a way to resize the  unused part of an NTFS partition without disturbing data stored in it?
[21:22] <pasteeater> does aptitude have an "apt-get build-dep" equivalent?  I didn't see anything in man aptitude.
[21:22] <IntuitiveNipple> ian_`: how about grep '.*[qwert].*' ?
[21:22] <LuYu> how does one create a link on the desktop?
[21:22] <LuYu> if i create symbolic links in the Desktop folder, nothing shows up on the actual desktop
[21:22] <LuYu> in gnome
[21:23] <FoobarWidget> can anybody suggest a good name for an open source image editor?
[21:23] <erUSUL> PostersandGuitar: yes; gparted can do it
[21:23] <sia-eXtreme> PostersandGuitar: you need something like partition magic
[21:23] <jack1> qualche italiano per supporto?
[21:23] <erUSUL> FoobarWidget: gimp
[21:23] <erUSUL> !it | jack1
[21:23] <FoobarWidget> erUSUL: I don't mean existing software. I mean a name for a new image editor
[21:24] <ian_`> neg IntuitiveNipple, it can only contain those characters
[21:24] <FoobarWidget> one that sounds good, one that doesn't cause the angry mob at slashdot/osnews/reddit to flame
[21:24] <LuYu> what does the software do?
[21:24] <PostersandGuitar> erUsul: I tried gparted, and I couldn't figure out how to tell the difference between free and non-free space on the NTFS?
[21:24] <sia-eXtreme> PostersandGuitar: try gparted
[21:24] <LuYu> which kinds of images does it edit?
[21:24] <nnull> im trying to vnc into my ssh server and im getting this: vncserver: Wrong type or access mode of /home/username/.vnc. -- do i need to have xfce running before i start vncserver or?
[21:24] <FoobarWidget> well it's like gimp
[21:24] <FoobarWidget> or to be specific
[21:24] <FoobarWidget> I'm forking gimp with only the name changed. people have been complaining about the name for years
[21:24] <PostersandGuitar> I *did* try gparted, I couldn't tell the difference between the free and unfree space.
[21:24] <DigitalFiz> FoobarWidget, OpenVector
[21:24] <DigitalFiz> hu hu
[21:24] <FoobarWidget> this will give them one less thing to complain about
[21:25] <IntuitiveNipple> ian_`: you mean all of them must be there, or any one of them?
[21:25] <FoobarWidget> well gimp isn't a vector editor :/
[21:25] <erUSUL> PostersandGuitar: i'm not user i understand ... gparted does not show the space used in each partition...
[21:25] <ian_`> it can only be a combination of those characters
[21:25] <PostersandGuitar> Vectors? Try inkscape!
[21:25] <pasteeater> FoobarWidget: How about "Weasel Beard Image Editor".
[21:25] <DigitalFiz> OpenLackOfVector
[21:25] <damon> hi, my computer keeps crashing and it might be from flash but it seems more general.  any help would be appreciated
[21:25] <pasteeater> FoobarWidget: very unique
[21:25] <sia-eXtreme> i saw that after i post my text
[21:25] <guntbert> !ot
[21:25] <PostersandGuitar> ErUsul: Exactly. I need to take some of the space in the NTFS I'm not using, and put into my ext3 for linux.
[21:26] <sia-eXtreme> resize NTFS partition and give a larger number to ext3
[21:26] <DigitalFiz> how about P.I.M.P Pretty Image Maker Program
[21:26] <Moocher> Hey guys
[21:26] <erUSUL> PostersandGuitar: you now how mach space the total partition and you now how much is used (use df -h or other methods) then do the math
[21:26] <erUSUL> !ot
[21:26] <PostersandGuitar> Erusul: Is that safe?
[21:27] <fous_> how do i change ubuntu to look like a mac?
[21:27] <Moocher> Hey where can I get more info about Xubuntu this is my first install
[21:27] <DigitalFiz> fous_, look for a mac theme for what ever wm your using
[21:27] <pasteeater> fous_: there are several threads about that at ubuntuforums.org
[21:27] <mefisto__> PostersandGuitar: gparted won't let you shrink the partition smaller than the used space anyway. it will give you a range from the minimum (used space) to maximum (current size)
[21:27] <sia-eXtreme> erUSUL:oh thanks, that is a useful command for me
[21:27] <fous_> thanks
[21:27] <erUSUL> PostersandGuitar: resaizing is never totally safe but should relatively so. people resize its ntfs partitions to make romm for ubuntu
[21:27] <Moocher> k cool, thaks pasteeaster
[21:27] <DigitalFiz> FoobarWidget, did you get my last suggestion? P.I.M.P
[21:27] <Moocher> pasteeater*
[21:27] <FoobarWidget> yeah
[21:27] <PostersandGuitar> So, this won't wipe my windows part?
[21:27] <FoobarWidget> hm....
[21:27] <DigitalFiz> :P
[21:28] <FoobarWidget> how about I call it Creativity
[21:28] <DigitalFiz> would be unique and cause chatter :P
[21:28] <DigitalFiz> dont know how /. will react but who cares really
[21:28] <keystr0k> is there a way to get your clipboard history in Ubuntu>
[21:28] <sia-eXtreme> PostersandGuitar: i think before doing anytihn it's googd to defrag your NTFS drive
[21:28] <FoobarWidget> well look at all the people who are complaining about the name
[21:28] <PostersandGuitar> Ok.
[21:28] <FoobarWidget> they either say the name sucks,
[21:29] <FoobarWidget> or they say that they're being rediculed by their collegues after having suggested gimp
[21:29] <DigitalFiz> Creativity lacks about as much uniqueness as possible
[21:29] <mefisto__> PostersandGuitar: http://www.howtoforge.com/partitioning_with_gparted
[21:29] <vasilisa> baww. I installed proprietary ATI drivers to try to fix flickering shadows on something, and wont up having my 3d graphics completely screwed up... is there something i need to do after installing their drivers?
[21:29] <pasteeater> Moocher: yes?
[21:29] <FoobarWidget> DigitalFiz: well it's less about uniqueness as it is about having an acceptable name
[21:29] <DigitalFiz> dont conform man dont conform!
[21:29] <guntbert> FoobarWidget: DigitalFiz please kepp to the topic, thank you
[21:29] <PostersandGuitar> thanks
[21:29] <guntbert> *keep
[21:30] <cobalt027> not sure if this is the right channel but, i recently switched to ubuntu 8.04 from windows, what is the best iTunes replacement for linux/ubuntu? something that will sync podcasts specifically, to my ipod?
[21:30] <FoobarWidget> DigitalFiz: or as someone said it, "gimp will forever be the tool for kids living in their basement until its name doesn't bring up associations with crippled people"
[21:30] <DigitalFiz> guntbert, maybe he plans on releasing a version for ubuntu :P
[21:30] <pen> anyone using mrxvt?
[21:30] <vasilisa> cobalt027: Thats a nightmare of a task, ipod + linux. Unfortunately its an extremely proprietary device.

[21:31] <sia-eXtreme> anybody know ?
[21:32] <PostersandGuitar> Is anyone sure?
[21:32] <erUSUL> cobalt027: they  released 3.0 this week
[21:32] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: did you get it? I was foolishly testing with a file in DOS format!
[21:32] <vasilisa> i installed an ATI driver from their site and now my colors are inverted in 3d graphics
[21:32] <erUSUL> PostersandGuitar: yes
[21:32] <cobalt027> erUSUL: oh, i didnt know///
[21:32] <FoobarWidget> DigitalFiz: besides, I'm not sure whether people would find 'pimp' acceptable
[21:32] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: egrap '^[qwerty]+$' <file>
[21:32] <FoobarWidget> might even sound hostile to some
[21:32] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: ahem, egrep
[21:32] <ian_`> leslieviljoen, ty!
[21:32] <PostersandGuitar> ErUsul. Well, ok.
[21:33] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: np!
[21:33] <PostersandGuitar> How do I clone my hard drive onto an external USB drive, and then if necessary restore from it?
[21:34] <zcat[1]> PostersandGuitar: I'd boot from a live CD and use partimage
[21:34] <DigitalFiz> FoobarWidget, less hostile then gimp and look how big it is :)
[21:34] <PostersandGuitar> What about gparted?
[21:34] <danbh_intrepid> !clone | PostersandGuitar
[21:34] <cobalt027> erUSUL: that ipod howto doesnt mention podcasts..
[21:34] <zcat[1]> there's already a tunepimp package for labelling mp3's
[21:34] <danbh_intrepid> not quite what you are looking for, maybe try !backup
[21:35] <damon> Hello, I'm having problems with Ubuntu crashing on a fairly regular basis.  I'm no linux expert and haven't been able to diagnose the problem, although it may be related to flash.
[21:35] <tobor_> Hi, just checking, On Heron, I did an apt-cachesearch skype and got nothing. i thought there was a skype package for ubuntu?
[21:35] <erUSUL> !skype
[21:35] <PostersandGuitar> Anyone need help with inkscape?
[21:35] <zcat[1]> !info libflashsupport
[21:36] <xuflash> Greetings.  I'm looking for some help using a USB GSM device.  I can communicate with it, but not connect to ATT.  Can anyone help here?
[21:36] <PostersandGuitar> or Vector graphics?
[21:36] <mefisto__> PostersandGuitar: you can clone a partition with gparted. just right-click, copy, then paste on the usb drive in unused (no partition) space
[21:36] <damon> I already have libflashsupport
[21:36] <tobor_> erUSUL: thanks
[21:36] <zcat[1]> damon: that package might help you?
[21:36] <savid> If wanted to patch an ubuntu package given a patch file,  how would I do so?
[21:36] <Quontrex> hey yall I have a quandry here, how do I make a dial up modem work in ubuntu without having an internet connection, aka the dialup?
[21:36] <zcat[1]> Hmm ok.. so how does it 'crash' exactly?
[21:36] <PostersandGuitar> oh
[21:36] <damon> I've tried tinkering with that--it's not ALWAYS flash that crashes it.  It just crashed when I tried to open a word doc from gmail.
[21:37] <damon> It crashes regularly watching south park online, which I think is flash
[21:37] <damon> in firefox
[21:37] <leslieviljoen> mefisto__: cool! didn't know that
[21:37] <damon> I so much as loaded youtube in konqueror and it crashed
[21:37] <Quontrex> any help?
[21:37] <PostersandGuitar> Try uninstalling things in order of how likely they were to cause the problem.
[21:37] <carlosfss> Hello all!
[21:37] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: do you have a graphics tablet?
[21:37] <mefisto__> leslieviljoen: well I use qtparted, but I assume it's pretty much the same functionality
[21:37] <carlosfss> When will be the next release?
[21:37] <zcat[1]> damon: so it's just the browser.. does it lock up? quit unexpectedly?
[21:37] <PostersandGuitar> Long Name Person: No, why?
[21:38] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: I had an Inkscape tablet question!
[21:38] <Quontrex> ok a little bit of help, (insert here)
[21:38] <damon> zcat: No--the screens just go black and audio keeps playing.  I can't restart the X-server or ctrl-alt-del to reboot, or ctrl-f1 and try to reboot etc. etc.
[21:38] <PostersandGuitar> Long Name Person: I know about them , I can answer.  Which drivers?
[21:38] <PostersandGuitar> Long Name Person: I'm just not on it right now.
[21:38] <Quontrex> damon, using proper vid driver?
[21:39] <PostersandGuitar> So, ask
[21:39] <damon> zcat: nVidia geForce 6800 I think.  It's been a pain getting the drivers to work, I think I used some 3rd-party macro to do it for me.
[21:39] <emma> Did everything stop here?
[21:39] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: oh me? my tablet cursor 'sticks' quite often in gimp and inkscape
[21:39] <damon> zcat: Called "envy"
[21:40] <emma> That was odd. I thought perhaps every problem had been solved.
[21:40] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: I have had no luck fixing that and it's annoying
[21:40] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: Windows and OSX don't stick
[21:40] <PostersandGuitar> Long Name Person: Either a problem with the tablet itself, or slow processor or GFX card causing it to slow
[21:40] <zcat[1]> damon: Ahhh.. I'd suggest using nvidia-glx-new and nvidia-settings to get dual-head going, I think I have the same card here but I'd have to check
[21:40] <PostersandGuitar> or I'm wrong
[21:40] <DieseL> hey ho, anyone seen this problem with Cairo-Dock - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5893188
[21:40] <damon> zcat: I think I tried that with no luck.
[21:41] <damon> zcat:  I can try it again if you think that could work.
[21:41] <Shark_7-11> Hi
[21:41] <zcat[1]> damon: have heard of issues with the nvidia driver before but not sure where to start fixing it.
[21:41] <DigitalFiz> FoobarWidget, Artistico lol hows that very normal yet unique :P
[21:41] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: I think its the driver, but have no experience hacking HUD drivers, don't know where to begin
[21:42] <zcat[1]> hmm, can't ssh to my other box cos it's turned off ..
[21:42] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: I had to compile the driver in, which worked fine - it's a Genius mouspen
[21:42] <Distort1> "ErrorL Dependency is not satisfiable: libasound2"  AFAIK, every libasound2 package is installed, suggestions? :o
[21:42] <DieseL> anyone here using cairo-dock?
[21:42] <damon> zcat: yeah, I know.  ubuntu seems pretty awful with graphics, honestly.
[21:42] <Chowder> Can anyone help me with a printer question?
[21:42] <PostersandGuitar> Long Name Person: I don't know. When it gets beyond inkscape, i'm clueless
[21:42] <Shark_7-11> I have (clean, updated install) Ubuntu 8.04 and Screen card ATI HD 2600Pro. No 3D acceleration at the mo and my default brownish background has green arcs at the top?. How can i enable the 3D effect and what driver should i use
[21:42] <motasantos> foku you
[21:43] <Shark_7-11> nice
[21:43] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: hehe, you have a pretty long name yourself there :-)
[21:43] <zcat[1]> ahh no, I have a GeForce 8500 GT (just checked)
[21:43] <LittleWookie> hi
[21:43] <LittleWookie> question: how can i map grub to another partition
[21:43] <motasantos> are you terrorist man

[21:44] <danbh_intrepid> motasantos: not here
[21:44] <Chowder> I just bought a brand new HP F4280 printer and upgraded hplip to the latest release. My printer is recognized, print jobs are accepted, but it won't actually "print" anything
[21:44] <Chowder> I have the output of hp-check on pastebin. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated
[21:44] <thabc> cups
[21:44] <Distort1> Chowder: Put paper in it :)
[21:44] <Chowder> very funny, lol
[21:44] <xuflash> Is this the best place to get help with a USB network adapter?  Or is there another channel?
[21:45] <ian_`> leslieviljoen, how would I alter it so I can print lines only containing all specified characters, like it can be any word, but it must have a,x,i,e for example o_o
[21:45] <DieseL> ;(
[21:45] <Chowder> hp-check output--->  http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/f2327f382
[21:45] <JimmyDee> hola
[21:45] <Shark_7-11> Need help with ATI card
[21:45] <leslieviljoen> !language
[21:45] <DieseL> all here using cairo-dock say I
[21:45] <Shark_7-11> you
[21:45] <JimmyDee> need help with dialup modem using 7.10
[21:46] <yofel> Shark_7-11: try installing the driver with envyng
[21:46] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: that's just a normal grep: grep '[axie]' <file>
[21:46] <Shark_7-11> Joke: What is the password for the following command?  sudo rm -rf /
[21:46] <zcat[1]> internal modem?
[21:46] <JimmyDee> puhleeeze help
[21:46] <Chowder> JimmyDee, why are you still using 7.10?
[21:46] <JimmyDee> because its the cd I have chowder
[21:46] <Shark_7-11> yofel: if i use envyng, wont it bugger up other stuff?
[21:46] <Shark_7-11> yofel: like the auto update?
[21:47] <ian_`> leslieviljoen, it has to have all of the characters, not just one of the characters :o
[21:47] <Chowder> JimmyDee: just get the 8.04 iso image
[21:47] <DieseL> ok something else then, theres a patched version of the gnome main menu applet which doesn't have the little drop down arrow, where can i get it?
[21:47] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: oh
[21:47] <JimmyDee> d i a l u p
[21:47] <unop> Shark_7-11, please don't mention that command here again.
[21:47] <Distort1> "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libasound2"  AFAIK, every libasound2 package is installed, suggestions? >>
[21:47] <Chowder> JimmyDee: it might work automagically on 8.04
[21:47] <Kohlrak> anyone remember the way to view firefox crash logs?
[21:47] <Shark_7-11> soz :/
[21:47] <danbh_intrepid> Shark_7-11: you should have a separate /home, then you can do clean installs, and not worry about messing things up
[21:47] <Kingsy101> I am trying to use magento connect manager and its saying that I need to make the folder writeable.. how is that done in ubuntu?
[21:48] <JimmyDee> it would be another release before I could download that on dialup
[21:48] <leslieviljoen> ian_`: a quickie: grep 'a' <file>|grep 'x'|grep 'i'|grep 'e'
[21:48] <zcat[1]> Downloading a newer ISO on dialup would take three to five days solid, depending on the connection...
[21:48] <yofel> Shark_7-11: not really sure, but you will have to reinstall the driver every time you upgrade the kernel i think
[21:48] <Kingsy101> I thought it was something like chmod -R 777 or something...
[21:48] <Kohlrak> Kingsy101: right click.
[21:48] <DFlame> JimmyDee, you could order a free CD
[21:48] <Shark_7-11> i havent installed it using System --> Admin --> HW drivers
[21:48] <zcat[1]> JimmyDee: internal modem?
[21:48] <poseidond> is this only a help line??
[21:48] <JimmyDee> zcat[1]: YUP
[21:48] <JimmyDee> sorry caps
[21:48] <Shark_7-11> I did that before i reinstalled and that didnt work (had a GeForce 6600, even worse off with that)
[21:48] <ian_`> ty leslieviljoen
[21:49] <zcat[1]> JimmyDee: you're screwed then... get an external ;)
[21:49] <MetaMorfoziS> is there anybody who knows anything about openvpn?
[21:49] <JimmyDee> its a conexant
[21:49] <MetaMorfoziS> I'm about to start a server, but it wan'ts to create a a tun device
[21:49] <DFlame> poseidond..... ah wait nvm >.>
[21:49] <MetaMorfoziS> but i'm a normal user, not a root
[21:49] <JimmyDee> tried dellbuntu drivers ftl
[21:49] <MetaMorfoziS> so i can't do that
[21:49] <Kingsy101> Kohlrak - yea but you cant do that because it says you are not the owner (I need sudo) or to be root
[21:49] <JimmyDee> bow before me for I am ROOT!
[21:50] <yofel> MetaMorfoziS: openvpn needs a tun device, so use 'sudo openvpn...'
[21:50] <Shark_7-11> fakeroot
[21:50] <Kohlrak> Kingsy101: you could +w i think it would be, or you could "sudo nautilus"
[21:50] <zcat[1]> JimmyDee: most internals are 'winmodems' and bloody hard to get working in linux. If there's a lug nearby that might be your best option, otherwise pick up a second hand external, they're dirt cheap these days 'cos everyone is moving to broadband
[21:50] <damo1> zcat: so....my computer just crashed, on the laptop now
[21:50] <damo1> zcat: I'm running memtest
[21:50] <xuflash> Anyone know how to work with 3G modem which is getting <IP_ADDRESS> for remote address?  I can
[21:50] <JimmyDee> ok so, lets limit the options here z, it works or I scrap it
[21:50] <kansan> what are good replacmenets for xmms2 or audacious (neither seem to work).... looking for something that looks & feels like winamp.
[21:50] <xuflash> not seem to get to the Internet over it.
[21:50] <MetaMorfoziS> that isn't installed on that machine
[21:50] <Kingsy101> yea it says missing operand after +w
[21:51] <Kohlrak> xuflash: not sure, have you tried http://<IP_ADDRESS>?
[21:51] <Distort1> kansan: why not just get winamp? .__.
[21:51] <Kohlrak> Kingsy101: you forgot to put the user group (number or actual name) after the +w
[21:51] <kansan> Distort1, cuz i dont think it runs on linux
[21:51] <PostersandGuitar> Would it be possible to put Ubuntu Studio on an external USB hard drive and boot from it?
[21:51] <erUSUL> !usb
[21:51] <Kohlrak> Distort1: winamp is windows
[21:51] <Kingsy101> such as?
[21:51] <Kohlrak> kansan: you could try vmware
[21:51] <Distort1> I coulda swore WinAmp ran on Linux >>
[21:51] <LittleWookie> YOU SUCK
[21:52] <PostersandGuitar> This is Ubuntu Studio which has no live anything.
[21:52] <JimmyDee> ok simple plain english, installing a modem from CD on 7.10 anyone?
[21:52] <erUSUL> kansan: audacious or bmpx
[21:52] <xuflash> Kohlrak -- Not yet, but I can try...
[21:52] <PostersandGuitar> Oh, the bot answered.
[21:52] <Kohlrak> Kingsy101: um.... Find a usergroup, usually it's the user name
[21:52] <Shark_7-11> !ATIvsNVIDIA
[21:52] <PostersandGuitar> How would I put Ubuntu Studio on a external hard drive, and boot from it?
[21:52] <Shark_7-11> ? what
[21:52] <Distort1> !libasound2
[21:52] <zcat[1]> JimmyDee: basically it'll be anywhere between 'difficult' and 'impossible'.. winmodems are a bitch.
[21:53] <Kohlrak> Kingsy101: because chown and chmod are so painful for me to use, i usually just "sudo nautilus" or "sudo thunar" depending which ubuntu i'm using
[21:53] <JimmyDee> PostersandGuitar: thats a bios setting, boot from usb
[21:53] <PostersandGuitar> How would I get it on the drive in the first place
[21:53] <Shark_7-11> Question: How do i get compiz working on ATI. Answer: <<Place answer here>>
[21:53] <JimmyDee> the improbable done immediately, the impossible may take a bit longer, how do you install a modem from the CD?
[21:54] <_haywire_> JimmyDee --- have you scoured the ubuntu forums or researched how others may or may not have got your exact modem working??
[21:54] <pan_> does powertop really work in saving battery life on a laptop? anyone here use it?
[21:54] <JimmyDee> actually I came here first, this is where the smart people hang
[21:54] <zcat[1]> JimmyDee: from the CD.. you can't. You at the very least will need to install the build-essential stuff and compile a driver module.
[21:54] <Kohlrak> Can anyone tell me how to get firefox to stop crashing when using Anthy as an IME?
[21:55] <Shark_7-11> i are smartt
[21:55] <JimmyDee> you are smart, you make us go
[21:55] <xuflash> Kohlrak:  I don't get anything when I do that.  It's trying to connect.  I get a message that it can't identify the remote and is defaulting to <IP_ADDRESS>.
[21:55] <Kohlrak> xuflash: what are you trying to do again?
[21:56] <PostersandGuitar> Are the connectors for a small laptop-type hard drive the same as for a desktop's hard drive?
[21:56] <xuflash> I'm trying to get my ATT USB connector to connect to the Internet.  I can communicate with the device and it is communicating with ATT, but isn't completing the setup.
[21:56] <Shark_7-11> PostersandGuitar: not mine
[21:56] <pan_> anyone know how to declock in ubuntu?
[21:56] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: no
[21:56] <Kohlrak> xuflash: what setup? what's ATT stand for?
[21:57] <PostersandGuitar> thanks
[21:57] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: you can get adaptors
[21:57] <PostersandGuitar> Ok.
[21:57] <yofel> pan_: declock? (cpu?)
[21:57] <JimmyDee> would a total full up install maybe automagically make the modem work?
[21:57] <pan_> yeah
[21:57] <PostersandGuitar> Is it possible to boot from a USB?
[21:57] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: yes
[21:57] <PostersandGuitar> Hmm
[21:58] <yofel> pan_: try 'sudo cpufreq-selector -g powersave'
[21:58] <JimmyDee> yes in bios check usb as the first boot device
[21:58] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: your BIOS needs to support it, you'll see the option if you go to the boot section
[21:58] <Pretto> via VT6120 nic doesn't work as expected.. what  could be?
[21:58] <leslieviljoen> PostersandGuitar: most newish computers support it
[21:58] <xuflash> Kohlrak: AT&T (formerly Cingular Wireless).  I get an address for my machine of 166.x.y.z, I get the DNS IP addresses from them, but there is no "default remote address".
[21:58] <PostersandGuitar> sweet
[21:59] <JimmyDee> dingular should be 66 or 67
[21:59] <JimmyDee> getting 169 maybe?
[21:59] <Kohlrak> xuflash: i need lots more information on the device before i can google it.
[22:01] <bull66> ciao
[22:02] <Distort1> "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libasound2"  AFAIK, every libasound2 package is installed, suggestions? >>
[22:02] <shark711_> ok if my X server start up in a resolution that is to large for my screen, how can i change the resolution from the shell?
[22:03] <JimmyDee> ok I am lost
[22:03] <JimmyDee> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[22:03] <Tundrayeti311> shark711_: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restart x-server
[22:03] <xuflash> Kohlrak:  I can copy the output from pppd to a buffer somewhere.
[22:03] <Shark_7-11> Tundrayeti311: I dont see resolution there
[22:04] <JimmyDee> its under device
[22:04] <tschlr> Hi. I'm having issues with apt-get, could anyone help me?
[22:04] <tschlr> Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main binutils 2.18.1~cvs20080103-0ubuntu1
[22:04] <tschlr>   Bad header line [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[22:04] <tschlr> things like that
[22:04] <Shark_7-11> let me check again
[22:04] <JimmyDee> tschlr: did you bork apt again?
[22:04] <tschlr> no its a fresh ubuntu installation
[22:04] <Tundrayeti311> shark711_: Well, there should be, it should list a range of valid resolutions... you could also run the reconfigure as was suggested
[22:05] <tschlr> but the network's firewall/security is pretty tight although it should be allowed and seems fine
[22:05] <JimmyDee> ok what issues are you experiencing?
[22:05] <Shark_7-11> Tundrayeti311: reconfigure?
[22:05] <Tundrayeti311> Shark_7-11:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
