[08:23] <jlee> Man, I just used the ubuntu gnome package manager to re-install the beryl manager
[08:23] <Taromsn> khermans, I'm not quite sure what I need to do, should I change the up and down speeds to 20% of the up and down bandwidths or what?
[08:23] <jlee> now gnome won't work
[08:24] <jlee> I get a blue screen afer logging in with a mouse pointer, and that is it
[08:24] <eccentricity> better off without it
[08:24] <tondar> hey all
[08:24] <jlee> Ubuntu is ticking me off
[08:24] <eccentricity> same here
[08:24] <jlee> this is the second time this has happened
[08:24] <jlee> and I don't know what to do to fix it
[08:24] <jlee> I am a noob
[08:25] <roryy> jlee: maybe ask in #ubuntu-effects about beryl
[08:25] <eccentricity> I just can't get sound working
[08:25] <Eric_Jardas> Can anyone tell me why this code: http://pastie.caboo.se/69124 gives me "./1create_root: 12: Syntax error: Bad substitution" ?
[08:25] <jlee> I ran "ps ax | grep beryl", beryl isn't running
[08:25] <tondar> any references I could have about compiling a kernel? and what are its advantages
[08:25] <tondar> ?
[08:25] <slofgren> does anyone know how long 6.10 is support til?
[08:25] <PriceChild> jlee, beryl is alpha software etc. support in #ubuntu-effects or #beryl
[08:25] <jlee> gnome is, but nothing shows up on the screen
[08:25] <PriceChild> slofgren, 18 months on the desktop, 3 years on server
[08:25] <roryy> !kernelcompile | tondar
[08:25] <ubotu> tondar: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[08:25] <slofgren> PriceChild: thanks
[08:25] <jlee> PriceChild: I don't care about beryl, I just wana get my gnome working again
[08:26] <PriceChild> !away > foolsout
[08:26] <PriceChild> jlee, I'd suggest you apt-get remove beryl & beryl-manager
[08:26] <FerrariDreams> This will sound dumb, but what things can be done on the net via the text window? No GUI?
[08:26] <sebas_> jlee: #beryl, have you followed correctly the tutorial? Also: try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start to start GNOME or restart. someone correct me
[08:26] <tarzeau> FerrariDreams: internet browsing, links2
[08:26] <jlee> YEah, I've had beryl working for 2 months now, and yes, I restarted gnmome
[08:26] <tarzeau> FerrariDreams: chat, text editing, software development, games
[08:26] <jlee> that actually just worked, the third time I did it
[08:26] <angy89> who help me about adsl usb modem?
[08:27] <PriceChild> FerrariDreams, you can get text browsers, irc, instant messengers (msn, aim etc.) file transfers etc.

[08:29] <jlee> well, double clicking it doesn't work, right click it and I select show updates, but then it asks me for root password, I type that in however, and then nothing happens

[08:43] <TaJMoX> chombee : there are 3 you can try - nvidia-glx, nvidia-glx-legacy, nvidia-glx-net       make sure you un-install one before trying the other.
[08:43] <icanic> I did
[08:43] <icanic> ?
[08:43] <okonisfree> hm..
[08:43] <DrFEAR> Couldn't find the kernel package
[08:43] <TaJMoX> chombee : the last one is nvidia-glx-new    not net
[08:43] <DrFEAR> phresh_: Couldn't find the kernel package
[08:43] <WalloO> chombee: I'm looking for a way to fix it, because even installing Nvidia driver from nvidia doesn't work....
[08:44] <phresh_> DrFEAR: It sounds like you haven't got the kernel source installed.
[08:44] <josue> Issue Di L`Contre ad ramificae di Fractalis aceress  Cida?
[08:44] <chombee> Wallo0 -- well, I guess I'll stick with vesa for now, Thanks
[08:44] <WalloO> chomsee: there is an incompatibility with versions
[08:44] <josue> Issue Di L`Contre ad ramificae di Fractalis aceress  Cida?
[08:44] <WhoNeedszzz_> sorry, my connection got messed up, did anyone respond to my question?
[08:44] <okonisfree> yes
[08:44] <okonisfree> i did
[08:44] <DrFEAR> phresh_: but everything is working fine...installing programs and all...
[08:44] <josue> Issue Di L`Contre ad ramificae di Fractalis aceress  Cida?
[08:44] <WhoNeedszzz_> sorry, what was your answer?
[08:44] <icanic> okonis you don't get pm's?
[08:44] <josue> Issue Di L`Contre ad ramificae di Fractalis aceress  Cida?
[08:44] <DrFEAR> phresh_: one day shows up an system update, I selected it....
[08:44] <okonisfree> i said do the thing and wen u press the button u will get a msg sayying complete
[08:45] <josue> Issue Di L`Contre ad ramificae di Fractalis aceress  Cida?
[08:45] <DrFEAR> phresh_: download everything and it can't install
[08:45] <TaJMoX> I need help setting a custom display resolution with ATI fglrx.  Editing xorg.conf did nothing, and neither did reconfiguring xserver-xorg.  FGLRX gives me the same modes no matter what I tell it I want.
[08:45] <WhoNeedszzz_> ?
[08:45] <WalloO> chombee: in your xorg.conf, at driver, write "nv" to use the stardard driver instead of "nvidia", and it will work, but not with nvidia features
[08:45] <DrFEAR> phresh_: it says a dependencies problem
[08:45] <phresh_> DrFEAR: Have you tried "apt-get update"
[08:45] <WhoNeedszzz_> ATI SUCKS
[08:45] <okonisfree> u have vmware?
[08:45] <DrFEAR> phresh_: with linux-generic
[08:45] <okonisfree> or r u using regular computer
[08:45] <icanic> okonisfree?
[08:46] <TaJMoX> Whoneedszzz I have no choice, it's a laptop
[08:46] <chombee> Wallo0 - actually that didn't work, though I'll try again just in case
[08:46] <okonisfree> yes icanic i am not receving ne msgs
[08:46] <phresh_> DrFEAR: That's probably part of the problem -- you're not downloading packages specific for your version of the kernel.
[08:46] <josue> Issue Di L`Contre ad ramificae di Fractalis aceress  Cida?
[08:46] <WhoNeedszzz_> use nvidia...
[08:46] <icanic> can you send pm to me?
[08:46] <TaJMoX> whoneedszzz : and ati linux drivers suck, not ATI sucks
[08:46] <okonisfree> i did
[08:46] <okonisfree> duble click on my name
[08:46] <DrFEAR> phresh_: how do I solve that, sorry I'm kinda semi-newbie
[08:46] <WhoNeedszzz_> ATI sucked for me on windows too
[08:46] <WhoNeedszzz_> died really quickly and I wasn't overclocking it
[08:46] <icanic> don't know why it won't work
[08:46] <okonisfree> too many people talking same time!!! ahhhhhhhh
[08:47] <TaJMoX> whoneedszzz_ well mine have never died.   is that the only problem you have with it ?

[08:47] <dudley> lol
[08:47] <okonisfree> sry
[08:47] <WhoNeedszzz_> josue GO TO HELL
[08:47] <PriceChild> WhoNeedszzz_, calm down please :)
[08:47] <TaJMoX> WhoNeedszzz_ you're not helpful either
[08:47] <WhoNeedszzz_> i'm kidding ;)
[08:47] <DrFEAR> phresh_: linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic (2.6.20-16.29)
[08:47] <phresh_> Anyone have any experience installing Ubuntu server directly from the ISO image?
[08:47] <mEck0> is there a way to unpack an archive in gnome-commander? I mean like a keyboard-combination like in total commander?
[08:48] <WhoNeedszzz_> so is anyone actually talking to me about nvidia?
[08:48] <Tobias43> Now they even make me have to translate spam? :/
[08:48] <okonisfree> josue, va a el ?channel? de espanol
[08:48] <icanic> okonis, so I got this problem with my 8800GTS every time I install the driver I got error about server x, no screen or something like that. I think that something is wrong with the xorg.config file
[08:48] <WhoNeedszzz_> It won't find screens
[08:48] <TaJMoX> !es | okonisfree
[08:48] <ubotu> okonisfree: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[08:48] <WhoNeedszzz_> josue is gone
[08:48] <DrFEAR> phresh_: problemas de dependencias - se deja sin configurar, in english: dependencies problems, left without configuring....or something like that
[08:49] <TaJMoX> Oh, josue was speaking french wasn't he?
[08:49] <okonisfree> icanic, did you ever have problems installing ubuntu are r u just getting this now
[08:49] <WhoNeedszzz_> yeah...
[08:49] <PriceChild> icanic, afaik the 8800 won't work with the ubuntu packaged drivers... I think you need to install from nvidia.com but we don't really support that
[08:49] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[08:49] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:49] <DrFEAR> phresh_: and after it ask me to reboot the system so the upgrading can complete
[08:49] <icanic> I'm getting this every time I try to install driver
[08:49] <okonisfree> ok...1sec
[08:49] <WhoNeedszzz_> icanic, it appears I have the same problem as you
[08:49] <phresh_> DrFEAR: Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[08:50] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn
[08:50] <aa^way> hello, how to search from files to find up a specified function? maybe some grep and find ?
[08:50] <icanic> it seems like 8800gts cards are not supported
[08:50] <josue> alo
[08:50] <phresh_> DrFEAR: Did you reboot?
[08:50] <josue> Issue Di L`Contre ad ramificae di Fractalis aceress  Cida?
[08:50] <WhoNeedszzz_> that is what i have dammit!
[08:50] <TaJMoX> There are 3 nvidia drivers to try: nvidia-glx nvidia-glx-new nvidia-glx-legacy
[08:50] <todkon> Hello, does anyone know how to get higher resolution then 800x600 on an nvidia card?
[08:50] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  a thousand times
[08:50] <PriceChild> !fr  | josue
[08:50] <ubotu> josue: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[08:50] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  more or less :S
[08:50] <TaJMoX> looks like this channel turned into an nvidia support channel
[08:50] <aa^way> im thinking like "grep -r *.php / | find find_files_what_has_this_string"
[08:51] <WhoNeedszzz_> what happend to FULL support for nvidia?
[08:51] <okonisfree> ah...so why not try windows and install vmware and do it from there instead lol....i'm just joking but i find linux a pain and also a wonder at the same time... the pain is that not many companies make drivers and hardware compatible with all os
[08:51] <okonisfree> lol ya
[08:51] <icanic> I just wan't my native resolution of 1920*1200
[08:51] <icanic> :-(
[08:51] <WhoNeedszzz_> why isn't 8800 supported?
[08:51] <caner> how can i make an application to start up with boot???
[08:51] <PriceChild> WhoNeedszzz_, bug in packaging sorry.
[08:51] <WhoNeedszzz_> this is messed up
[08:51] <phresh_> DrFEAR: "apt-get -u upgrade"
[08:52] <phresh_> Anyone have any experience installing Ubuntu server directly from the ISO image?
[08:52] <TaJMoX> okonisfree : if you have an nvidia card, there should be no pain if you know something about linux and google
[08:52] <Dodek> caner: add it to /etc/rc.local
[08:52] <WhoNeedszzz_> what do you mean bug in packaging?
[08:52] <okonisfree> JOIN #UBUNTI-HARDWARE
[08:52] <okonisfree> UBUNTU*
[08:52] <icanic> gonna try
[08:52] <PriceChild> WhoNeedszzz_, they made a mistake when packaging the nvidia driver for ubuntu.
[08:52] <TaJMoX> I cant hear you, type louder
[08:52] <okonisfree> lol
[08:52] <SudoBash> lolol
[08:52] <redmozzy_> hi, i know this is a noob question but i cant seem to get a solid answer, I have changed to an intel core 2 duo 6420, is the amd64 version the right 64bit version for me?
[08:52] <WhoNeedszzz_> when will it be fixed?
[08:52] <okonisfree> lolol
[08:53] <kalibi> http://support-technique.fr.tc/astuce.htm
[08:53] <okonisfree> for all your hardware problems with ubuntu, join #ubuntu-hardware
[08:53] <jrib> redmozzy_: you can use either.  32bit will give you less headaches
[08:53] <phresh_> DrFEAR: "apt-get install kernel-image-<version>-<flavor>"
[08:53] <PriceChild> redmozzy_, the i386 and amd64 versions will both work
[08:53] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  it tries to install 4 packages...but the first pack depends on the second one, the second depends on the third, and so on
[08:53] <PriceChild> okonisfree, please don't spam.
[08:53] <roryy> phresh_: i have, though it was a while back.  Not sure what you mean by 'direct from ISO image' -- i burned the CD and installed.
[08:53] <caner> thnk you Dodek
[08:53] <redmozzy_> tnx guys, i have installed the amd64 bit version and all seems good, just a couple of lock-ups made me worry ;)
[08:53] <okonisfree> ok sry pricechild
[08:53] <redmozzy_> tnx again
[08:53] <WhoNeedszzz_> WTF, spell Louisiana right dumbass
[08:54] <okonisfree> Louisiana
[08:54] <phresh_> roryy: I mean installing it _without_ burning a CD.  I don't have a bootable CD-ROM drive on this particular server.
[08:54] <aa^way> hello, how to search from files to find up a specified function? maybe some grep and find ?
[08:54] <WhoNeedszzz_> dude ubuntu-hardware isn't an existing channel
[08:54] <PriceChild> !guidelines > WhoNeedszzz_
[08:54] <roryy> phresh_: hrm.  what's installed on the machine now?
[08:54] <phresh_> CentOS 4
[08:55] <icanic> I think I will go back to windows
[08:55] <WhoNeedszzz_> ok so since the good drivers aren't supported, how do I revert back to the drivers that actually work?
[08:55] <PriceChild> !xconfig | WhoNeedszzz_
[08:55] <ubotu> WhoNeedszzz_: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[08:55] <PriceChild> WhoNeedszzz_, second command (accept defaults)
[08:55] <phresh_> roryy: If you're not familiar with it, CentOS is a variation on RedHat
[08:55] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  its looking for linux-image, not kernel-image, when i try apt-get install kernel-image-... it says that the package is not found
[08:55] <WhoNeedszzz_> i don't want to use x-server...
[08:56] <phresh_> DrFEAR: "apt-get -f install"
[08:56] <Despero> hey all, I have a dilemma. I am new to Ubuntu and somehow the partition with Ubuntu installed got completely full and now Ubuntu will not even let me boot into it to delete some files
[08:56] <roryy> phresh_: yeah, i know centos.  I don't know, unfortunately, how to help you.  i take it you can't boot from usb or do a netinstall either?
[08:56] <Despero> is there any way to resize the partitions so I can boot back into Ubuntu?
[08:56] <Dodek> Despero: boot from live cd and remove some files
[08:56] <redmozzy_> any recomend irc s/w?  I'm using x-chat atm but used to mirc with scripts
[08:56] <WhoNeedszzz_> despero- very carefully
[08:56] <Despero> okay thank you
[08:56] <ubuntu_laptop> DrFEAR: linux-image-generic-'uname -r'
[08:56] <Dodek> or resize partition from live cd, if you have free space on drive left
[08:56] <Despero> WhoNeedszzz_ careful about what?
[08:56] <lt> how can i make a screenshot from beryl?
[08:56] <WhoNeedszzz_> resizing partion
[08:56] <ubuntu_laptop> DrFEAR: ther eis no kernel-image package
[08:56] <Despero> oh how can I do that, DodeK?
[08:57] <Despero> I do have lots of free space left
[08:57] <WhoNeedszzz_> i tried and i did it wrong and wound up messing it up
[08:57] <ubuntu_laptop> replace -generic with whatever arch you use
[08:57] <phresh_> roryy: I'd possibly be interested in a net install ... Is it possible to install Ubuntu via HTTP like one can with RedHat?
[08:57] <Dodek> Despero: have you got any live cd with ubuntu?
[08:57] <Despero> yes I do
[08:57] <Despero> the one I installed it with
[08:57] <ubuntu_laptop> !install | phresh_
[08:57] <ubotu> phresh_: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[08:57] <WhoNeedszzz_> dodek: live cd doen't mount the HDD
[08:57] <WhoNeedszzz_> hence live CD
[08:57] <Dodek> WhoNeedszzz_: so what?
[08:57] <roryy> phresh_: yeah, i'd recommend the wiki page.  I believe it has netinstall instructions
[08:58] <WhoNeedszzz_> so he can't delte files
[08:58] <ubuntu_laptop> it does
[08:58] <WhoNeedszzz_> delete*
[08:58] <PriceChild> WhoNeedszzz_, it does mount partitions on the drive. Will use swap if availiable for example
[08:58] <phresh_> ubuntu_laptop: I have scoured the pages you recommended.  I wonder if you would mind taking a moment to address the specific problem I am having?
[08:58] <Dodek> WhoNeedszzz_: and what prevents me from mounting it myself?
[08:58] <WhoNeedszzz_> whatever man
[08:58] <TaJMoX> !changes
[08:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about changes - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:58] <ubuntu_laptop> phresh_: you want to install from net image is what i saw
[08:58] <WhoNeedszzz_> i'm not here to argue :)
[08:58] <TaJMoX> Where do I find kernel change log?
[08:58] <Dodek> i don't get your point.
[08:58] <phresh_> ubuntu_laptop: I have already followed the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux.
[08:59] <Despero> sooooo I just throw my live CD in, boot from it and I should be able to at least delete files?
[08:59] <Dodek> Despero: run live cd, mount partition with ubuntu and delete some files
[08:59] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  same error :S
[08:59] <phresh_> ubuntu_laptop: I have come across a problem in the installation, though.
[08:59] <Dodek> Despero: not yey
[08:59] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  sorry
[08:59] <Dodek> yet*
[08:59] <ubuntu_laptop> phresh_: what is the issue?
[08:59] <Dodek> Despero: you should mount it first
[08:59] <Despero> Dodek: what do you mean mount?
[08:59] <phresh_> ubuntu_laptop: I have configured GRUB to boot the installation files from the partition, but the installation stops when it cannot detect the CD-ROM!
[08:59] <Dodek> Despero: "sudo mkdir /mnt/ubuntu && sudo mount /dev/xxxx /mnt/ubuntu"
[09:00] <Dodek> Despero: replace xxxx with your ubuntu partition
[09:00] <Despero> okay so do that and then delete files?
[09:00] <Dodek> you should be able to open the directory then
[09:00] <Dodek> via bash or any gui explorer
[09:01] <ubuntu_laptop> phresh_: nothing i can do with that, either the installer doesnt know that hardware or there is a problem with the cd. did you check the md5sum of the ISO to make sure it was right? did you burn cd at lowest speed possible?
[09:01] <Dodek> argh, ubuntu's gui installer is so slooow...
[09:01] <ubuntu_laptop> phresh_: is this live cd or alternate cd?
[09:01] <blue|palm> Hi there, has anybody got xgl+beryl working with the latest ATI driver?

[09:02] <crayzee> /dev/disk/by-uuid is not being fully populated. I think there is an issue with the udev rules that generate it  -65-persistant-storage.rules, but I am unsure how to fix. Any ideas?
[09:02] <Xucrute> I've been using Feisty sice it was release (my first try with linux). Today, after an automatic update, computer was asked to restart. After reboot screen resolution is limited to 800x600. Higher resolutions are available at xorg.conf. My graphics card is ATI Radeon 9200. Until today everything was working fine from install (even beryl).
[09:02] <ubuntu_laptop> crayzee: file a bug if those are the default rules (unchanged by you)
[09:03] <phresh_> ubuntu_laptop: Perhaps I have misccomunicated.  I downloaded the ISO, mounted it, and copied the files from it to a new partition on one of my HDs.  I created a GRUB entry for the installation, and succesfully launched it from the HD.  The problem I am having is that the installation doesn't seem to care that it is running from the HD -- it still asks for the CD-ROM.
[09:03] <phresh_> ubuntu_laptop: I followed the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux
[09:03] <phresh_> ubuntu_laptop: Note -- I am using the LTS Server installation so I had to configure the GRUB entry a little differently due to the differing directory structure.
[09:04] <Heptofite> i need a command or method to download every game in the repositories
[09:04] <ubuntu_laptop> Heptofite: synaptic
[09:04] <PriceChild> Heptofite, use add/remove
[09:04] <Heptofite> will that let me mass select?
[09:04] <Dodek> aptitude.
[09:04] <Heptofite> i don't want to have to click everything by hand

[09:06] <crayzee> I have solved it - a line contains filesystem|other|crypto, it should instead have filesystem|other|crypto|raid
[09:07] <Xucrute> PriceChild: thanks I'll check it

[09:09] <Quintin_> steel_lady: what is the problem?
[09:09] <ticky> Quintin_: why?
[09:09] <blue|palm> ticky, what do you want to achieve?
 my boyfriend messed up configuration of x win and now I can not enter. it says I have weong settings. I tried already with sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -pcritical

[09:12] <blue|palm> steel_lady, sure
[09:12] <AlbertoP> not on suse blue|palm
[09:12] <Quintin_> phresh_: explain your situation
[09:12] <AlbertoP> command not found :-)
[09:12] <phresh_> Quintin_: I have followed the instructions found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux.
[09:12] <ticky> because you can use "apt-get -d" to only download hte files
[09:12] <blue|palm> AlbertoP, is it an ubuntu thing?
[09:12] <AlbertoP> blue|palm, no
[09:12] <ticky> that was for Quintin
[09:12] <AlbertoP> it's gnome :)
[09:12] <ticky> ok. so you don't know
[09:12] <AlbertoP> gksu was abandoned
[09:12] <phresh_> Quintin_: The problem is that as the installation searches from the install CD, it doesn't find it and won't allow me to continue -- despite the fact that the files are all on the HD!
[09:12] <blue|palm> AlbertoP, yeah, but gksu works fine for me, sudo does too for that matter...
[09:13] <AlbertoP> gksu is NOT present on 10.2 :)
[09:13] <aricz> is it possible to have more virtual consoles than ctrl+alt+F1-F6.. ?
[09:13] <ticky> i knoew a way.. but i wanted to know if there was a better way to do it.
[09:13] <Quintin_> aricz: yes
[09:13] <blue|palm> ticky, im not sure if you can recover the .deb files once cleaned away
[09:13] <aricz> Quintin_ : how? :)
[09:13] <Quintin_> ticky: stfu.  kthnx.  they're gone.  stfu.  ok :)
[09:13] <xtknight> gnomesu vs gksu/gksudo?
[09:13] <AlbertoP> oops sorry, I'm in the wrong channel :(
[09:13] <blue|palm> AlbertoP, hehe
[09:13] <AlbertoP> sorry blue|palm ^^
[09:13] <ubuntu_laptop> Quintin_: stop no need to be nasty
[09:13] <xtknight> !stfu
[09:13] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[09:13] <blue|palm> AlbertoP, your in ubuntu land, np
[09:14] <naknomik> What options do I have in Ubuntu to do Audio/Video chat with people in the Windows and Mac world?
[09:14] <blue|palm> steel_lady, what is your model number?
[09:14] <Quintin_> ubuntu_laptop: there is also no need to be stupid, it doesn't stop some people though.
[09:14] <AlbertoP> blue|palm, hehe. xchat tabs :(
[09:14] <phresh_> Quintin_: Any idea?
[09:14] <Quintin_> aricz: give me a minute..
[09:14] <xtknight> hahah
[09:14] <blue|palm> AlbertoP, indeed :)
[09:14] <phresh_> NOOOOO!
[09:14] <ubuntu_laptop> Quintin_: now stop
[09:14] <Quintin_> idiots
[09:14] <phresh_> Quintin_:
[09:14] <ticky> blue|palm: i think if you use the option "-d" it will only download them. the hard part is tell apt-get which ones you want to install, but you can get the list with apt-cache
[09:15] <steel_lady> blue|palm it is Dell Inspiron C840
[09:15] <xtknight> gksu was abandoned?
[09:15] <AlbertoP> no xtknight, I was thinking to talk on #suse...
[09:15] <phresh_> Bah!  Quintin was going to help me!
[09:15] <xtknight> AlbertoP, ahh
[09:15] <linuxtx> xtknight: gksu is still there
[09:15] <xtknight> phresh_, what do you need help?
[09:15] <AlbertoP> xtknight, sorry. Confused the tab :\
[09:15] <xtknight> what do you need help with*?
[09:16] <phresh_> xtknight: Installing Ubuntu from Linux without using a CD.
[09:16] <blue|palm> steel_lady, one more thing - if you can tell me the error message it gives you (at the blueish screen) It will make things easier... you can just pace it in a pastebin or tell me here
[09:16] <phresh_> xtknight: (i.e. Following these directions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux)
[09:16] <xtknight> phresh_, which step are you stuck on?
[09:16] <aricz> Do anyone know how to add more virtual consoles than ctrl+alt+F1-F6 ?
[09:16] <phresh_> xtknight: I've done it all -- the installation, however, stops because it can't find the CD-ROM!
[09:17] <erUSUL> aricz: edit /etc/inittab
 nothing of a pastebin since the other laptom can not enter xwindows I am on another one
[09:17] <xtknight> phresh_, what IDE or SATA controller do you have the CD-ROM on?  is it supported fully by Ubuntu?
[09:17] <phresh_> xtknight: I don't have a CD-ROM drive on the machine!
[09:17] <aricz> erUSUL : inittab isn't there..
[09:17] <xtknight> phresh_, oh..right
[09:17] <steel_lady> F<blue|palm> it says: Failed to start xserver It is likely that it is not set up correctly. would you like to view xserver output to diagnose?
[09:17] <naknomik> If I decide to use Ekiga on Ubuntu for Audio/Video chat, what options do my friends in the Windows world have?
[09:17] <KI4IKL> I don't have any resolution above 800x600...wtf?
[09:17] <blue|palm> steel_lady, say yes to that
[09:18] <blue|palm> steel_lady, then look for the line that says EE:
[09:18] <xtknight> phresh_, hm i dont know.  do you have a usb stick?
[09:18] <djezer> Need help figuring out why I can't log on to wireless network. I have the right wep key, but it keeps asking me to enter it over and over again with no error message but no established connection either
[09:18] <aricz> erUSUL : I think ubuntuteam got rid of it.. I'm a newb so, big chance I'm wrong.. :)
[09:18] <phresh_> xtknight: Yes, I do.
[09:18] <erUSUL> aricz: :| err maybe in /etc/event.d/  ???
[09:18] <xtknight> phresh_, big enough?  700M+?
[09:18] <phresh_> xtknight: 4 GB
[09:18] <xtknight> phresh_, there's probably a way to use that.  let's see...
[09:18] <xtknight> !netboot

[09:18] <chm> hi, any germans here
[09:18] <aricz> erUSUL : nope, no inittab here

[09:19] <djezer> Anyone have a clue why I can't establish a connection to my wifi with my laptop running feisty??
[09:19] <chm> ookay
[09:19] <phresh_> xtknight: I'll give this a shot ...
[09:19] <xtknight> phresh_, sorry ive never really done it so i can only help you fidn instructions
[09:19] <xtknight> find*
[09:20] <djezer> I entered the wep key time and time again, but no connection
[09:20] <xtknight> phresh_, why dont you have a cdrom drive?  laptop?
[09:20] <linuxtx> djezer: I bet you have a Broadcom
[09:20] <djezer> linuxtx, Broadcom?
[09:20] <phresh_> xtknight: It just broke on me.
[09:20] <phresh_> xtknight: :(
[09:20] <blue|palm> steel_lady, ok, now are you familiar with the shells? (The command line interfaces)
[09:20] <linuxtx> djezer: the Broadcom wireless card is a pain to get working on linux
[09:20] <xtknight> phresh_, and getting another one is not feasible?  i'm just wondering why you're going the harder route :)
[09:21] <qaldune> linuxtx: true
[09:21] <linuxtx> djezer: do you know what card you have?
[09:21] <chm> wenn ich die 7.04 desktop cd starte (hab nur windows drauf) will er benutzername und passwort, ist das normal?
[09:21] <phresh_> xtknight: This really shouldn't have been an issue!  The installation shouldn't rely on a piece of hardware that is not present!
[09:21] <shiftplusone> Hey, can someone please help me with sound issues I have with linux? When running cpu-eating apps sound seems to go really distorted/noisy/choppy.... is there a way around it?
[09:21] <xtknight> !de | chm
[09:21] <ubotu> chm: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[09:21] <qaldune> chm: ich glaube nicht
[09:21] <erUSUL> aricz: i get it now... 'sudo cp /etc/event.d/tty5 /etc/event.d/ttyn' where n is the number of tty tou need. Do it as many times as necesary afaics
[09:21] <phresh_> xtknight: I may just abandon my attempt to install Ubuntu server over my CentOS installation.  I was hoping this would be less of a hassle!
[09:21] <xtknight> phresh_, that's like saying it shouldn't rely on a CPU..
[09:21] <chm> thanks
 not much, depends what you want me to do
[09:22] <djezer> linuxtx, nope I just bought the laptop this week. It worked on one connection at a cafe, it just doesn't work here. I can enter a command to find out if you tell me which :)
[09:22] <aricz> erUSUL : aha, thanks, I'll try
[09:22] <phresh_> xtknight: It's distinctly _dissimilar_ to saying that.  The CD-ROM is not an essential piece of hardware -- especially if the installation kernel has just booted from a HD!
[09:22] <blue|palm> steel_lady, noting too difficult... log in with your user name via the console shell (After X crashes) and then 'cd etc/X11/'
[09:23] <xtknight> phresh_, it's all great, it's just that the cd is the only supported way to install it.  you may run into significantly more problems with the other methods, which is why i strongly recommend just getting another cd drive first (you will need it sooner or later, no?)
[09:23] <rflmnz> hello everybody
[09:23] <aricz> erUSUL : didn't do anything..
[09:24] <rflmnz> i'm new on ubuntu and i  can't install GRUB on floppy!
[09:24] <djezer> linuxtx, It's an ibm laptop if that gives any clue
[09:24] <naknomik> linuxtx: how can my friend on yahoo messenger do video chat with me on Ekiga?
[09:24] <chombee> Thanks, person who helped me. The nv driver works, and I don't need the acceleration
[09:24] <PriceChild> rflmnz, what are you trying to achieve?
[09:24] <phresh_> xtknight: I haven't put a CD-ROM into this machine in the past 3 years.  It is strictly a server with little physical interaction.  It is _possible_ that I will need a new drive at some point, I was just hoping that it wouldn't have to be today.
[09:24] <shiftplusone> anyone? sound? help? Sound goes choppy when running games or when cpu usage is high? Any way to fix it? Please?
[09:24] <erUSUL> aricz: you have to reboot for that to take effect.. or maybe 'sudo telinit 3' (3 is the default runlevel?)
[09:24] <xtknight> phresh_, ah ok i can understand that a bit better now.
[09:24] <rflmnz> i've already searched on google and i could'nt find the right slution for me
[09:24] <roryy> erUSUL: 2 is the default
[09:24] <johnnytang24> oops, I made the mistake of doing an apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:25] <xtknight> phresh_, i assumed since you had other linuxes on there you had installed them all by cd and your cd just died
[09:25] <erUSUL> roryy: 'sudo telinit 2'
[09:25] <blue|palm> steel_lady, another thing, what did your bf do to mess up X?
[09:25] <chombee> I need to make 31 small text labels for printing. Each label has different text, not the same, and I want to print, say, 10 on a normal-sized sheet of paper. Which application would make this easiest?
[09:25] <phresh_> xtknight: That is precisely what happened.
[09:25] <rflmnz> i'v installed ubuntu (with grub in /dev/fd0) but when i insert the floppy i get the message "GRUB GEOM ERROR"
[09:25] <phresh_> xtknight: I installed CentOS on this machine a few years back.
[09:26] <linuxtx> djezer: hal-device will list your info
 ok I am there
[09:26] <blue|palm> steel_lady, now 'ls'
[09:26] <linuxtx> djezer: an easier way is to go graphical with device manager
[09:27] <dredhammer> hello real player from the repos will not playback real media files it says it has an application xmap error
[09:27] <djezer> linuxtx, what to you mean by going graphical with device manager?
 I was at my house and he was at his house with it and there is some mouse problem so they told me to tel him to write the comand to reconfigure xserver to fix that. i toild him just to accept defaults but he messed up somewhere, he doesn't have any idea about linux
[09:28] <rflmnz> anyone?
 I have varous xorg configs and stuff
[09:28] <djezer> I'm looking throught the result of hal-device ...
[09:28] <blue|palm> steel_lady, after 'ls' you should see xorg.conf and copies of it (backups really). The backups look like xorg.conf0 or something
[09:28] <icanic> someone who need to instal 8800GTS driver try this http://www.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.techzonept.com%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D154479&langpair=pt%7Cen&hl=en&ie=UTF8 and PM me if it works
[09:28] <johnnytang24> I made the mistake of doing a dist-upgrade, and now ubuntu won't boot.  It would hang right after 'Reading script /scripts/init-bottom'.  I reran lilo, and now it says 'mkdir failed: /dev/root already exists', followed by '<other stuff>... cannot open /dev/root: No such device or address', what the heck does that mean?
[09:28] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  thanks for your help
 yes I see it
[09:29] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  I couldn't solve it
[09:29] <linuxtx> djezer: if you have gnome, go to System:Preferences:Hardware Information
[09:29] <blue|palm> steel_lady, good, now you need to try each xorg.conf that you have there till you find one that works, start with the most recent
[09:29] <DrFEAR> phresh_:  maybe I'll try reinstalling
[09:29] <Supaplex> what packages can i choose from to be notified of updates?
[09:29] <linuxtx> djezer: you should be able to check your network card from there
[09:29] <blue|palm> steel_lady, to replace your current one, do this 'sudo cp <xorg.confbackup> xorg.conf
[09:29] <djezer> linuxtx, checking
[09:29] <blue|palm> steel_lady, where <xorg.confbackup> is the filename of the backup you are trying
[09:30] <rflmnz> hey guys, could someone here help me with the "grub geom error"??
[09:30] <FantasticFoo> hey y'all. i'm upgrading to feisty from edgy, and i'm encountering some things that i need advice on:
[09:30] <majmun> i'd like to conduct a survey here, to hear your guy's opinion: do you think, that XRMB2.net is overall a good/cool domain-name or is it a bad one? and if you'd be so kind, you may answer shortly why do you think so
[09:30] <Heptofite> um, what is a good flash player for ubuntu, the gnash or whatever REALLY sucks
[09:31] <johnnytang24> majmun : too confusing
[09:31] <FantasticFoo> there's this little warning that asks me if i want to enable my ati graphics driver, and that it is a restricted driver or something
[09:31] <FantasticFoo> what does this mean?
[09:31] <majmun> because i've got plans and i need a domain-name, this one is a name, i've got yet
[09:31] <johnnytang24> xmrb, xrbm, rbmx, what the heck was that domain again?
[09:31] <Heptofite> where can i get flashplayer-mozilla package?
[09:31] <clownbag> it means enable it fantastic
[09:31] <majmun> yeah, that's the primary problem
[09:31] <FantasticFoo> clownbag: oh
[09:31] <djezer> linuxtx, might this be it: AR5212 802.11abg NIC
[09:31] <FantasticFoo> clownbag: ok thanks.
[09:31] <blue|palm> steel_lady, every time you run the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it backs up the one you have. So you should be able to just use the last backup and resume full functionality
[09:31] <rdesh> hmm
[09:31] <clownbag> no problem!
[09:32] <djezer> linuxtx, by Atheros Communications, Inc.
[09:32] <FantasticFoo> and also, after i upgraded, beryl doesn't work.
[09:32] <clownbag> ha, cant help u there
[09:32] <majmun> any more opinions? maybe positive ones? :>
[09:32] <rflmnz> HELLO ANYBODY!
[09:32] <Despero> hey Dodek, are you still here?
[09:32] <FantasticFoo> i had beryl totally set up, and now, it just plain doesn't happen
[09:33] <Despero> I'm in Ubuntu now, booted from Live CD, should I resize my partitions using Ubuntu?
[09:33] <KI4IKL> I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and I still can't set my resolution any higher than 800x600
[09:34] <steel_lady> blue|palm ok when I do one trial, how do I check if it works?
[09:34] <Despero> if the partition Ubuntu is on ran out of space and I am now booted from Live CD, should I use the Ubuntu disk partitioner to resize the partitions?
[09:34] <Despero> I tried mounting the drives but I don't know if it worked
[09:34] <blue|palm> steel_lady, sorry, type startx...
[09:35] <jimmygoon> Why can I not resize my "menu bar" to something smaller than 21 px
[09:35] <pasi> KI4IKL, more info, what is your vga-chip?
[09:35] <gnomefreak> ticky: apt-get clean does not remove the .debs from /var/cache/apt/archives
[09:36] <salaah> i have aproblem with my display...everytime i restart X or reboot, the screen gets all messed up and then restarts
[09:36] <redmozzy> l8rs guys
[09:36] <FantasticFoo> also, i'm asked if i want to "remove deprecated packages" or something like this
[09:36] <redmozzy> and girls ;)
[09:36] <icanic> someone here have installed and working 8800gts?
[09:36] <Erich85> Hello all.  My computer is constantly bombarding me with messages that it cannot mount a drive of some sort, and this has persisted repeatedly for some time.
[09:36] <FantasticFoo> should i go on with this removal?
[09:37] <salaah> can some provide some input please?
[09:37] <KI4IKL> I really don't konw...I'll take my video card out later and look...bleh
[09:38] <pasi> salaah, have you looked your logs?
[09:38] <salaah> logs? can u guide me please
[09:38] <linuxtx> djezer: yeah, it's not a Broadcom
[09:38] <Despero> does anyone know if I can add space to my Ubuntu partition using Ubuntu partitioner?
[09:38] <kitsune> greyfrog: are you here?
[09:38] <pasi> KI4IKL, what computer do you have? laptop or so? iwde screen monitor?
[09:38] <salaah> Despero: did u try gparted
[09:38] <Erich85> "Cannot mount value" is what I'm being told again and again, however I'm not trying to mount one.
[09:38] <Erich85> Any ideas?
[09:38] <linuxtx> djezer: still you may want to check out ndiswrapper if linux doesn't have the driver
[09:38] <FantasticFoo> hmm
[09:39] <FantasticFoo> i have an ideab
[09:39] <djezer> linuxtx, ok, I know i got it to work in a cafe, why doesnt it connect here, any ideas?
[09:39] <FantasticFoo> brb
[09:39] <KI4IKL> pasi, it's a really old gateway essential
[09:39] <KI4IKL> it was made for win 98
[09:39] <linuxtx> djezer: you may want to check your wireless router
[09:39] <KI4IKL> Sorry I dunno more about it, my dad gave it to me a few weeks ago.
[09:40] <linuxtx> djezer: sorry to leave you hanging, but I gotta leave
[09:40] <schigh> Hello. Can anyone help me set up my USB speakers?
[09:40] <djezer> linuxtx, i did, it seems fine. It sees my machine but I've still got no net

[09:41] <Mr-Dark> Hello.
[09:41] <omha> hey
[09:41] <blue|palm> steel_lady, how is it going?
[09:41] <Mr-Dark> I'm having a problem with Ubuntu Linux after the installation of Beryl.

[09:42] <AnObfuscator> Can anyone here help me with Nvidia drivers on 7.04? 7.04 killed X :-(
[09:42] <blue|palm> salaah, might i ask why your nick is salaah? Any reason for it?
[09:42] <steel_lady> blue|palm I entered from the first trial but now I can not do anything inside because the mouse runs over the screen and hides in the one corner and I can not move it becvause it is just jumping in the corner
[09:42] <salaah> pasi: what should i be seeing?
[09:42] <blue|palm> steel_lady, try rebooting
[09:42] <KI4IKL> pasi, it is a gateway essential 700c...I can't find much more than that
[09:42] <pasi> KI4IKL, go to consoe and write " lspci|grep "Display" "
[09:42] <Mr-Dark> I'm now running Windows, because I somehow screwed up Ubuntu
[09:42] <johnnytang24> I made the mistake of doing a dist-upgrade, and now ubuntu won't boot.  It would hang right after 'Reading script /scripts/init-bottom'.  I reran lilo, and now it says 'mkdir failed: /dev/root already exists', followed by '<other stuff>... cannot open /dev/root: No such device or address', what can I do?
[09:42] <blue|palm> steel_lady, you would never enter with a startx like that anyway (when you normally log in)
[09:43] <pasi> salaah, something with Fatal Error is good start
[09:43] <schigh> Can anyone help me set up my USB speakers? I'm using 32 bit Feisty and I have 5.1 surround sound USB speakers, but sound gets routed to the sound card output jack.
[09:43] <HungryCakes> Ok, so someone here told me I had a problem with asynchronous bandwidth, specifically, with it causing the rest of my network to go down.  The connection to the wireless router is fine, but connection to the internet is lost.  This happens only when I'm torrenting on my Ubuntu box.  Anyone know how to solve this?
[09:43] <sx66> down

[09:45] <Despero> salaah: I am using GParted now, but do you know if I need any unpartitioned free space to grow my current Linux partition?
[09:45] <blue|palm> steel_lady, any luck?
[09:45] <Despero> plus, from what GParted is saying my Ubuntu partition isn't even full but it definitely said it was when I tried to boot into it
[09:46] <salaah> pasi: there are quite a few
[09:46] <LVKeulen> Would anyone care if I'd post my problem too?
[09:46] <blue|palm> Despero, best is to first delete some stuff so you can log in..., then back up your stuff, then resize
[09:46] <salaah> but i dont see anything to do with the display...most of them with my touchpad
[09:46] <LVKeulen> Because this channel seems quite busy.
[09:46] <Despero> blue|palm: I don't have permission to delete any files
[09:46] <Despero> I'm still on Live CD
[09:46] <pasi> salaah: send some examples to me in private
[09:47] <steel_lady>  blue|palm I restarted and mouse runs again in the corner
[09:47] <Despero> I don't even know which drive to delete off of, but I can't find any program files in Ubuntu
[09:47] <Wolfman2000> Is Ubuntu a good distribution for a bunch of 5-6 year olds to play games on?  I'm a little uninformed on that.
[09:47] <roryy> LVKeulen: be a little more specific about your problem; for beryl problems, you could also ask in #ubuntu-effects
[09:47] <badmacktuck> hey all
[09:47] <blue|palm> steel_lady, ok, now try the next backup
[09:47] <djezer> trying to connect to a speedstream router using an atheros card on feisty and i get a prompt for the wep key repeatedly but never establish a connection. The key is exactly the same as on the router. Any ideas of anything to try out to fix this?
[09:47] <pasi> LVKeulen, of course. some give a damn, some little more :)
[09:47] <badmacktuck> i need help with the sound on a lenovo 3000 n100
[09:47] <LVKeulen> Okay :)
[09:47] <LVKeulen> Well then...
[09:48] <LVKeulen> I recently installed Beryl.
[09:48] <badmacktuck> crimsun helped me last time
[09:48] <blue|palm> steel_lady, to get back to a console shell, use CTRL+ALT+F1
[09:48] <blue|palm> steel_lady, or F2, or F3 and so on
[09:48] <LVKeulen> I used the guide on Beryl-project.org...
[09:48] <Flannel> Wolfman2000: yeah.  Check out Edubuntu.  However, I wouldn't install Edubuntu (it has a bunch of stuff you won't need in a non-classroom setting, client/server stuff), instead install Ubuntu, and then add in the Edubuntu games/themes/etc
[09:48] <steel_lady>  blue|palm this was the wan that was working before, new ones are when system was messed up
[09:48] <LVKeulen> Well, it seemed to be for nVidia graphics cards, but I have an ATI graphics card.
[09:49] <ipx> Wolfman2000: well, i'd say if not the best its one of the best :)
[09:49] <salaah> pasi: im trying pastebin
[09:49] <Wolfman2000> Flannel: It's not me installing.  It would be my dad, and he's two hours or so away.  He just wanted me to scout out.
[09:49] <LVKeulen> Suddenly, the screen turned white and my mouse disappeared, and the cube could still spin anyway..
[09:49] <HungryCakes> Ok, so someone here told me I had a problem with asynchronous bandwidth, specifically, with it causing the rest of my network to go down.  The connection to the wireless router is fine, but connection to the internet is lost.  This happens only when I'm torrenting on my Ubuntu box.  Anyone know how to solve this?  I'm using Ktorrent, Feisty, and my ISP is Verizon FIOS.Ok, so someone here told me I had a problem with asynchro
[09:49] <pasi> LVKEulen, which one? i did some clusteerfucking recently with one
 it was happening also before but only with PS2 mouse. now it happens with USB mouse too
[09:49] <LVKeulen> pasi, what do you mean with 'which one'?
[09:49] <LVKeulen> 'What guide?'
[09:49] <Flannel> Wolfman2000: Ah, well, Edubuntu might be the easier method then.  Just plain Edubuntu, and then never use the client/server stuff.
[09:49] <LVKeulen> Or Beryl version?
[09:49] <pasi> LVKeulen, give URL
[09:49] <LVKeulen> Ok.
[09:49] <LVKeulen> The download link?
 we changed to USB mouse to avoid that problem but now it happenes even with this one
[09:49] <LVKeulen> Or guide
[09:50] <LVKeulen> I'll give the guide.
[09:50] <pasi> jep
[09:50] <AnObfuscator> I really need some help with Nvidia drivers in 7.04, I can't start X with the "nv" drivers (I get a garbled screen) or with "nvidia" drivers ("no screens found")
[09:50] <LVKeulen> http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/02/06/install-beryl-on-ubuntu-feisty-with-aiglx-for-nvidia-ubuntu-704/
[09:50] <LVKeulen> That's it.
[09:50] <crayzee> Does anyone here have software RAID5?
[09:50] <blue|palm> steel_lady, hmm.... I have no experience when it comes to the mouse on a laptop (its uses the synaptics driver) Maybe you could ask around here for help with that problem? I have 3 laptops running ubuntu with no problem at all...
[09:50] <djezer> can anyone help with my wifi connection, I'm about to kgive up if there's no response
[09:50] <AnObfuscator> I've done some searching but nothing seems to work yet
[09:50] <AnObfuscator> It was working perfectly in 6.10
[09:50] <WillJitsu> what is the proper way to install the Pidgin IM Client?  I don't see it listed in the repositories
[09:50] <blue|palm> steel_lady, sorry I couldnt be of more help...
[09:50] <pasi> LVKeulun, wait for a second
[09:51] <LVKeulen> Okay
[09:51] <KEEEV> AnObfuscator!
[09:51] <KEEEV> i can help
[09:51] <Flannel> !pidgin | WillJitsu
[09:51] <ubotu> WillJitsu: pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[09:51] <KEEEV> i've had your same issue
[09:51] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: man getdeb.com
[09:51] <icanic> THANK YOU LORD!! I DID IT
[09:51] <KEEEV> like<PHONE_NUMBER> times
[09:51] <AnObfuscator> KEEV: please do!
[09:51] <KEEEV> and im new to nix
[09:51] <KEEEV> =)
[09:51] <LVKeulen> But pasi, that's not the main problem..
[09:51] <ubunt1> .
[09:51] <KEEEV> PM?
[09:51] <Flannel> !enter
[09:51] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:51] <AnObfuscator> It's happening on my friend's box, too
[09:51] <AnObfuscator> ok
[09:51] <LVKeulen> The main problem is that ubuntu now really fails to start and displays error messages.
[09:51] <icanic> If someone need help installing 8800GTS just ask
[09:51] <Flannel> WillJitsu: Pidgin is still GAIM in Feisty, won't be pidgin until gutsy.
[09:51] <icanic> :-)
[09:51] <ubunt1> !Flanel
[09:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flanel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:51] <Despero> how do I delete files from my Ubuntu installation when I am just using Live CD?
[09:51] <ubunt1> !enter Flannel
[09:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about enter flannel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:51] <pasi> LVKeulen, ok. this one works. what is the problem?
[09:51] <Wolfman2000> Flannel: Edubuntu definitely looks like something I can work with.  My dad, though...well, I'll have to hope he can figure out how to format an old hard drive and run from the Live CD. :P
[09:52] <LVKeulen> The problem is..
 but where to search for help? since it happenes with internal mouse, with USB and PS2 mouse, can it be the problem of the motherboard or something? what if it happens in MS win too?
[09:52] <LVKeulen> I modified one of the config files.
[09:52] <Flannel> Wolfman2000: You don't need to format, it'll do that during the installation.
[09:52] <LVKeulen> Just a second..
[09:52] <ubunt1> FLannel
[09:52] <WillJitsu> Flannel: oh ok so I can just install GAIM from the repositories and it's actually the latest Pidgin?
[09:52] <ubunt1> !enter
[09:52] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:52] <schigh> Can anyone help me set up my USB speakers? I'm using 32 bit Feisty and I have 5.1 surround sound USB speakers, but sound gets routed to the sound card output jack.
[09:52] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: getde.com
[09:52] <LVKeulen> No wait, that's the wrong guide.
[09:52] <LVKeulen> http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Feisty_with_nVidia
[09:52] <LVKeulen> That's the one i used
[09:52] <Flannel> WillJitsu: no, Pidgin is v2.0 GAIM is last beta (beta 6) prior to the 2.0 release
[09:52] <djezer> Ok so NO ONE can help with a wifi connection here -- this sucks
[09:53] <blue|palm> steel_lady, it would be interesting to find out if it occurs in MS Win, but it sounds like an X problem
[09:53] <LVKeulen> Now it fails loading the 'X server' or something.
[09:53] <abzde> anyone ever gotten a vec usb foot pedal to work in feisty? (i've heard that they usually register as joysticks, but none are showing up when i plug it in)
[09:53] <Despero> does anyone know how I can delete files from my actual Ubuntu installation when I'm just booted from Live CD?
[09:53] <sebas_> i'm installing ubuntu but it fails resizing the ntfs partition "check filesystem", what should I do?
[09:53] <blue|palm> Does anybody here know anything about your mouse wondering off into a corner of the screen? And how to fix it?
[09:53] <AnObfuscator> Keev: did you get my pm? I'm not sure I sent it properly, this is a new IRC client to me, and it has an odd pm gui thing
[09:53] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: pidgin is the next release of gaim.
[09:53] <pasi> LVKeulen, that quide does not work with current Feisty
[09:54] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: gaim was the beta
[09:54] <LVKeulen> I'm really new to Ubuntu.
[09:54] <abzde> smash the mouse against the desk until it break, if the problem presists, the problem isn't with the mouse :P
[09:54] <Flannel> Despero: you'll need to mount the partition, and then you can delete files within that mount. Did the recovery console not successfully boot for you?
[09:54] <LVKeulen> Anyway, Ubuntu's
[09:54] <WillJitsu> ubunt1: ok how do I install the latest pidgin?
[09:54] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: getdeb.com
[09:54] <LVKeulen> 'graphical interface' doesn't want to start.
[09:54] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: this site is for ubuntu software
[09:54] <WillJitsu> ubunt1: in a web browser?
[09:54] <pasi> LVKeulen, with firs guide you sent, it will work. now reverse anything what you did with later one and try a
[09:54] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: there have games like counter strike
[09:54] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: yes
[09:54] <sx66> !synergy
[09:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about synergy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:54] <LVKeulen> I can't reverse anything..
[09:55] <kane77> anybody has BOINC installed? I had it in dapper but now I cant get it to work...
[09:55] <LVKeulen> Well~
[09:55] <LVKeulen> I'm getting some sort of terminal.
[09:55] <Despero> Flannel: should I just try booting into the recovery option instead of the normal Ubuntu installation?
[09:55] <LVKeulen> I don't know how to revert any of my settings..
[09:55] <WillJitsu> ubunt1: hmm I can't seem to go to that site
[09:55] <pasi> LVKeulen, why not?
[09:55] <LVKeulen> Well...
[09:55] <icanic> can someone tell me how to install beryl?
[09:55] <LVKeulen> I don't know how to revert stuff with the terminal
[09:55] <Despero> because right now I'm on Live CD
[09:55] <LVKeulen> I just installed ubuntu
[09:55] <HungryCakes> Ok, so someone here told me I had a problem with asynchronous bandwidth, specifically, with it causing the rest of my network to go down.  The connection to the wireless router is fine, but connection to the internet is lost.  This happens only when I'm torrenting on my Ubuntu box.  Anyone know how to solve this?  I'm using Ktorrent, Feisty, and my ISP is Verizon FIOS.
[09:56] <Flannel> Despero: At your GRUB prompt, yeah.  Try the recovery console.  I don't think that requires any writing to home.
[09:56] <schigh> Can anyone help me set up my USB speakers? I'm using 32 bit Feisty and I have 5.1 surround sound USB speakers, but sound gets routed to the sound card output jack.
[09:56] <joe3> I need some help with reinstalling LAMP through an SSH interface, any takers?
[09:56] <sebas_> please, who can help me?  i'm installing ubuntu but it fails resizing the ntfs partition "check filesystem", what should I do?
[09:56] <Flannel> !anyone | joe3
[09:56] <ubotu> joe3: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:56] <Despero> thanks
[09:56] <EADG> HungryCakes: try rtorrent, it lets you set up/down speeds. Not sure how to do that in Ktorrent.
[09:56] <SlimeyPete> godt_lobtab: because it's being included in the gutsy release.
[09:56] <ubunt1> WillJitsu:
[09:56] <ubunt1> http://www.getdeb.net/
[09:56] <blue|palm> godt_lobtab, I wonder too...
[09:56] <Flannel> godt_lobtab: because Ubuntu freezes versions of software in the repositories (except fixes), and Pidgin was released too late for Feisty.
[09:57] <LVKeulen> So..
[09:57] <LVKeulen> Is there any way to 'revert' settings through the terminal?
[09:57] <blue|palm> SlimeyPete, I cant accept the ubuntu team's philosophy on updates though...
[09:57] <HungryCakes> EADG: Ok, but what would I do after getting rtorrent?
[09:57] <godt_lobtab> SlimeyPete: i see.
[09:57] <Flannel> LVKeulen: revert what kind of settings?
[09:57] <ubunt1> Nexuiz is a fast-paced, chaotic, and intense multiplayer first-person shooter game, focused on providing basic, old style deathmatch. It is extremely modder-friendly.
[09:57] <HungryCakes> EADG:  I know how to set up/down speeds
 it is crazy, it runs to the corner like mouse to the hole
[09:57] <LVKeulen> I made some settings for Beryl to 'work'...
[09:57] <dasos> HungryCakes, it might be the number of connections you have
[09:57] <HungryCakes> EADG:  I just don't know what the problem is or what I should do
[09:57] <joe3> what commands would I use to reinstall lamp through an SSH connection? I totally borked my GRUB and superblock settings, and lamp is still loading, but I'd like to start over
[09:57] <sushubh> i need help with installing ubuntu
[09:58] <LVKeulen> But it was for another graphics card (nVidia, i have ATI.)
[09:58] <EADG> HungryCakes: Install it, open a torrent then hit the "S" key to increment upload speed by 5Kb
[09:58] <Flannel> LVKeulen: What files did you edit?
[09:58] <blue|palm> SlimeyPete, steel_lady nobody has replied yet...
[09:58] <LVKeulen> Well..
[09:58] <LVKeulen> Let me see..
[09:58] <LVKeulen> I believe it is ./beryl-install-script
[09:58] <Flannel> joe3: reinstalling LAMP won't help anything with GRUB
[09:58] <sushubh> can anyone help installing ubuntu for me? :P
[09:58] <LVKeulen> And..
[09:58] <R00tBreaker> does anyone know how to install the latest ATI drivers in ubuntu?  i've already downloaded the .run file
[09:58] <pasi> LVKeulen, you can always try in console: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg"
[09:59] <LVKeulen> Alright..
[09:59] <LVKeulen> What does that do anyway? :|
[09:59] <HungryCakes> What's a reasonable global connection limit?
[09:59] <WillJitsu> ubunt1: ok now I have the pidgin_2.0.1-1~getdeb2_i386.deb file.  what do I do from here?
[09:59] <HungryCakes> It's default was 800
[09:59] <dasos> HungryCakes, try 100
[09:59] <Flannel> LVKeulen: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support.  Most people here won't know much about it
[09:59] <dasos> that seems way too high, it would usually kill my router
[09:59] <LVKeulen> Alright.
[09:59] <aroo> !deb > WillJitsu
[09:59] <LVKeulen> Thanks for all the help guys. :)
[09:59] <pasi> that should revert your vgaconfig to original.
[09:59] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: press on the deb file
[09:59] <R00tBreaker> does anyone know how to install the latest ATI drivers in ubuntu?  i've already downloaded the .run file
[10:00] <PriceChild> WillJitsu, 3rd party applications/packages aren't supported in here.
[10:00] <ubunt1> WillJitsu: press on the deb file
[10:00] <hammedhaaret> hi. I was wondering how you delete some of the many themes I've made for ubuntu... right now they're all just filling up in the themes menu..
[10:00] <HungryCakes> dasos: Ah, so that might've been my problem?
[10:00] <PriceChild> WillJitsu, if that breaks then sorry. Make sure you trust the provider.
[10:00] <aroo> PriceChild, he was asking how to use .deb packages, not how to use a 3rd party app
[10:00] <dasos> HungryCakes, not sure, but i had problems related to that, turn it down and see what happens =)
[10:00] <pasi> salaah, nothing comes from you?
[10:02] <HungryCakes> dasos: Alright, so if I suddenly leave the channel, assume it's not fixed?
[10:02] <minseong> Hey, do you know how to get source code of ubuntu gusty?
[10:02] <okiaro> hey guys
[10:03] <Erich85> Ubuntu repeatedly tells me, through error messages, "Cannot Mount Volume".  I'm not doing anything to prompt this, any ideas?
[10:03] <roryy> !source | minseong
[10:03] <ubotu> minseong: You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[10:03] <bruenig> minseong, what do you mean? distros don't generally have much source code as they are just a group of applications combined together and a kernel
[10:03] <R00tBreaker> does anyone know how to install the latest ATI drivers in ubuntu?  i've already downloaded the .run file
[10:04] <bruenig> you can get the source for each application and kernel
[10:04] <kane77> how do I run two programs at once?
[10:04] <aamy> hi, total newbie. just downloaded the latest release of ubuntu and running off of the live cd. Before installing on my hard drive, i want to make sure my multiple monitor (3) setup will work with ubuntu. Right now only one monitor is active. How do I get the others to come on?
[10:04] <WillJitsu> ubunt1: how would I go about uninstalling pidgin if I decided I didn't want it anymore?
[10:04] <roryy> kane77: on the command-line?      firstprogram &     then    secondprogram
[10:04] <cman321> aamy see ubuntuguide.org
[10:04] <bruenig> !xinerama | aamy

[10:07] <bruenig> minseong, seriously that is a nonsensical question, ubuntu doesn't have source code, it is a collection of applications and a kernel

[10:08] <ubunt1> xor_: aha

[10:08] <pcgigabyte> okay little help please
[10:09] <pcgigabyte> this is a computer related issue. what is the black thing that holds the heatsink to the board called?
[10:09] <Erich85>  Ubuntu repeatedly tells me, through error messages, "Cannot Mount Volume".  I'm not doing anything to prompt this, any ideas?
[10:09] <aschmitz> Okay, I have a problem and I think I know the solution, but I'm not sure how to do it. I have a RAID array (software) that's mounted under /var. The problem is that I added the array to fstab by hand, so I'm not sure it's in the right place. Anyway, it works fine when the system's running, but networking isn't started. It works if I start it after the system is loaded, but it seems to be failing because /var isn't mounted when it
[10:09] <aschmitz>  tries to run. It also doesn't log any errors, because /var/log doesn't exist either at that point. How can I make /etc/init.d/networking wait until /etc/init.d/mdadm-raid is done?

[10:09] <Chago> I'd downloaded a .deb file and double click on that
[10:09] <bruenig> Chago, sudo apt-get remove limewire perhaps
[10:10] <kane77> can anybody help me to set up boinc?
[10:10] <sebas_> hi alexx
[10:10] <Chago> bruenig: tks, let me see
[10:10] <aschmitz> kane77: Feisty?
[10:10] <kane77> aschmitz, yep
[10:10] <joe3> I have a LAMP system that is throwing up some very strange error messages, it keeps saying I have a bad superblock and tells me to run E2fsck but if I exit the special terminal it drops me in, ubuntu is running just fine, what do these error messages mean?
[10:10] <minseong> The things I want right now is that of not compiled codes of Ubuntu (gusty)
[10:10] <aschmitz> kane77: Do you have universe/multiverse enabled?
[10:11] <kane77> I guess so...
[10:11] <alexx> hey, i'm using live CD and i want to install ubuntu without removing windows, but i can't seem to resize the partitions, anybody knows why?
[10:11] <bruenig> alexx, defrag if you haven't
[10:11] <alexx> in windows?
[10:11] <sushubh> alexx: i have the same issue.. i am confused with partitioning
[10:11] <cman321> make sure windows was shutdown correctly last time.
[10:11] <bruenig> alexx, yes
[10:11] <sushubh> i want to install ubuntu on the D: partition
[10:11] <aschmitz> kane77: Should just be under "Add/Remove Applications" if you're using the desktop version. You're looking for Boinc manager
[10:11] <sushubh> how do i go about it?
[10:12] <bruenig> sushubh, set it to automatically set it up for you, or do it manually if you have a specific setup you want, I have mine setup with root home and swap partitions
[10:12] <sushubh> well i have five partitions...
[10:12] <sushubh> c: has windows
[10:12] <Chago> bruenig: don't work!!!
[10:12] <sushubh> i want to dedicate d to ubuntu
[10:12] <sushubh> its totally emptu
[10:12] <bruenig> Chago, what the name of the deb
, still nothing? I can not work or do anything :-( how to know if it is a hardware prob?
[10:12] <sushubh> i cant seem to find a way to tell the isntaller to pick up that pratition
[10:13] <minseong> Hello. I don't know what this file is.. http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/Contents-i386.gz
[10:13] <roryy> Erich85: do you see anything in System -> Admin -> System log ?
[10:13] <roryy> Erich85: if there's nothing there, take a look at the output of dmesg ( Alt+F2, type 'gnome-terminal' and press enter, then type 'dmesg' and press enter)
[10:13] <cman321> I find the easiest way is to delete D: partition and then just tell ubuntu to use the largest free space available.
[10:13] <blue|palm> steel_lady, do you have a live cd somewhere?
[10:13] <Chago> Bruenig: LimeWireLinux.deb
[10:13] <sushubh> but i have 4 partitions
[10:13] <sushubh> all empty
[10:13] <bruenig> Chago, do you have a link
[10:13] <sushubh> equal size
[10:13] <alexx> bruenig: the problem i have is that when i use gparted, an error pops up when i try to resize and create the other 2 or 3 partitions por ubuntu, should i defrag?
[10:13] <sushubh> its a brand new hard disk :P 250 gigs
[10:13] <sushubh> five partitions of 50 gigs each
[10:13] <blue|palm> steel_lady, you can test if its a hardware problem by popping in a livecd and trying out the OS that loads up
[10:13] <bruenig> alexx, defrag windows, you probably got files strewn all across that partition and so it can't resize it without losing them
[10:13] <Chago> do you mean Lime's web site?
[10:14] <bruenig> Chago, direct link to that file
[10:14] <alexx> bruenig: thanks, i'll try that
[10:14] <sushubh> it seems to be trying to get free space from c: :(
[10:14] <sushubh> i dont want to touch that pratition
[10:14] <gonnaeatthat> anyone use amarok in here?
[10:14] <bruenig> sushubh, do it manually, it is very easy
[10:14] <Chago> www.limewire.com
[10:15] <gonnaeatthat> i need to find out how to get the open folder function to recognize my mounted windows hard drive
[10:15] <bruenig> Chago, direct link to that file, whatever you clicked on the download it, that one
[10:15] <sushubh> i get four options
[10:15] <minseong> bruenig: I really want to know what is http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/Contents-i386.gz is
[10:15] <sushubh> resize, use entire disk, use  largest contigeous and manual...
[10:15] <sushubh> which one to hcoose
 but it happens in microsoft also! so it has to be a hardware thing, no?
[10:15] <shiftplusone> hey, is new hardware detected automatically?
[10:15] <sebas_> do I have to run chkdsk from windows if i'm having troubles with resizing the NTFS partition to install ubuntu?
[10:16] <aamy> Question: A couple of years ago, I had installed Suse 10.0 in an attempt to move away from Windows, A friend created a dual boot setup. In the end it didn't work out because most of my hardware wasn't compatible. Now I'm trying to install Ubuntu using dual-boot config. I already have the boot loader that came with Suse installed in MBR. Now what should I do before installing Ubuntu? I'm sure Ubuntu comes with its own bootloader?
[10:16] <bruenig> minseong, that is a list of all the possible files you could have from the packages
[10:16] <blue|palm> steel_lady, Wow... its hardware for sure then
[10:16] <techjim> hey guys.  I'm resizing a 107gb ntfs partition.  Any tips?  I think gparted gave me some news about how I freed too much space.
[10:16] <sebas_> aamy: ubuntu uses GRUB as the default boot loader
[10:16] <blue|palm> steel_lady, sorry for not being able to help fix it, and keep your bf away from touching the xorg.conf :)
[10:16] <sebas_> !GRUB | aamy
[10:16] <ubotu> aamy: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:17] <minseong> Thanks.. So then what is the source code of ubuntu that people so-called?
[10:17] <aschmitz> Hey, how can I keep an init.d script (networking) from starting until another one finishes (mdadm-raid)?
[10:17] <techjim> hey guys.  I'm resizing a 107gb ntfs partition.  Any tips?  I think gparted gave me some news about how I freed too much space.
[10:17] <gonnaeatthat> speaking of grub is there a way to delete a version of the kernel from the list
[10:17] <gonnaeatthat> i just upgraded to .16 but have .14 and .15 still selectable
[10:17] <icanic> how to enable GLX not available: either the GLX extension is not
[10:17] <icanic> available on this X server, or there was a problem
[10:17] <icanic> retrieving GLX information from the X server.
[10:17] <aamy> Okay, and what does SUSE use? If I already have GRUB installed in my MBR, and want to remove Suse and put Ubuntu in its place, what steps would I  need to take?
[10:17] <GigaClon> gonnaeatthat, uninstall them from synaptic
[10:18] <gonnaeatthat> ah okay giga
[10:18] <gonnaeatthat> thanks didnt think it would be that simple
[10:18] <cman321> OH
[10:18] <sebas_> aamy: I have no idea, try joining #suse
[10:18] <cman321> Grub problems
[10:18] <cman321> Try super grub repair rescue disc http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/
[10:18] <Erich85> roryy:  I get a failed optcode message, that drive is not ready for command, and a status error.
[10:18] <techjim> hey guys.  I'm resizing a 107gb ntfs partition.  Any tips?  I think gparted gave me some news about how I freed too much space.
[10:19] <roryy> Erich85: could you perhaps put the message up on the pastebin ?
[10:19] <mcronline> doesnt suse use lilo?
[10:19] <roryy> !pastebin | Erich85
[10:19] <ubotu> Erich85: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:19] <sebas_> hey, do I have to run chkdsk if I can't resize the NTFS partition to install ubuntu?
[10:19] <pmangg> sums
[10:19] <roryy> mcronline: maybe you should ask that on #suse ?
[10:19] <mcronline> i am answering not asking
[10:20] <roryy> mcronline: ah, sorry
[10:20] <artabrahao> hi, when I type sudo su appears must be setuid root
[10:20] <mcronline> np roryy it is OT really :-)
[10:20] <Erich85> roryy: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24901/
[10:21] <idefixx> mcronline: in any case i dont think a recent suse uses lio anymore. the probably switched to grub, too.
[10:21] <techjim> hey guys.  I'm resizing a 107gb ntfs partition.  Any tips?  I think gparted gave me some news about how I freed too much space.
[10:21] <mcronline> oops i will shut up then..
 so I suspect it is motherboard no?
[10:21] <KimmoKe> why does vim-ruby package want to install X11 and all kinds of crazy stuff related to it?
[10:21] <KimmoKe> and how do i avoid that
[10:21] <LinuxP> God Evening! Anyone here with some experience on pcmcia wlan card issues?
[10:21] <roryy> Erich85: do you know if hda is your cd-rom ?
[10:22] <Erich85> roryy: How would I figure that out?  Though that sounds about right.
[10:22] <kane77> aschmitz, well the problem seems to be that the boinc_client doesnt run...
[10:23] <andrewww> How do i reset ubuntu to its clean install settings
[10:23] <bubblegum> http://paste.debian.net/30058--- can someone help me with that?
[10:23] <roryy> Erich85: what does 'ls -l /dev/cdrom' say ? (should have a -> hda if hda is the cdrom)
[10:23] <blue|palm> steel_lady, I have no clue :) It could be mb, or it could be the USB mouse interface controller or a host of other things
[10:23] <LinuxP> Well, I ask anyway :-P
[10:23] <Erich85> roryy: It says hda. :)
[10:24] <roryy> Erich85: i'd guess a bad cd in that case
[10:24] <blue|palm> steel_lady, does it happen with both the touchpad and the mouse?
[10:24] <idefixx> KimmoKe: you dont avoid it.
[10:24] <Erich85> roryy: My drive is empty.
[10:24] <Erich85> roryy: I get this message all the time no matter what's in there.
 yes it happens always
[10:25] <jesus> hello
[10:25] <bubblegum> hello
[10:25] <jesus> It is my first time in linux
[10:25] <idefixx> andrewww: you cant do that, most of the stuff in ect isnt backed up by default. if you just want to reset the desktop (gnome or kde) rename your home directory.
[10:25] <jesus> I am spanish
[10:25] <ubuB0nk3rs> hi people, quick bash question.. I'm trying to remove the coverart from my music collection so that rhythmbox re-fetches it.. is there a way of doing this at the command line rather than deleting each cover.jpg manually

[10:28] <PriceChild> techjim, defragment the ntfs partition
[10:28] <aschmitz> ahmed__: Yes, but it's not really fast at playing anything (at least, in my experience)
[10:28] <bubblegum> http://paste.debian.net/30058---help meeeee
[10:28] <Erich85> roryy: Oh man, this is annoying.  Is there a way to suppress error messages?

[10:29] <ahmed> ?
[10:29] <Fractal44> Anyone know why it stalls when starting the Ubuntu LiveCD ?
[10:29] <idefixx> KimmoKe: you might want to try apatitude. its has realy nice dependency handling an previewing - it also doesnt pull sugested packages with it if you configure it right. i dont think it'll help thou
[10:29] <roryy> Erich85: i don't know, sorry.  do you get these messages in gnome dialog boxes?
[10:29] <idefixx> KimmoKe: aptitude*
[10:29] <Erich85> Fractal44: Try starting it with the added "-nolapic".  That fixed it for me.

[10:31] <tibbe> is there any difference between running the vmware tools from vmware and those in the package manager?
[10:31] <Fractal44> Erich, im not sure where I'd type it, I get to the Ubuntu first menu Screen from LiveCD, but when I hit any option it says loading.. then waits forever, the CD rom light even goes off.

[10:34] <bubblegum> sorry, lol
[10:34] <bubblegum> no prob
[10:36] <Erich85> Fractal44: Yeah... you put in the live CD, and you get about six options.  Hit F6, then a terminal thing pops up on the bottom, and add on "-nolapic" and pretty enter.  Make sure the cursor is over the first option, "Boot Live CD" or whatever.
[10:36] <SDMX> Does anyone know why Fawn doesn't install ntfs rw on install if it attempt to detect ntfs patitions on intsallation?
[10:36] <bubblegum> n2diy: http://paste.debian.net/30058
[10:36] <SlimeyPete> SDMX: because that requir ntfs-3g, which is not very mature yet
[10:36] <Fractal44> Thankyou Erich I shall try it
[10:36] <SDMX> Hasn'
[10:36] <cman321> I thought it was licensing but that makes more sense.
[10:37] <n2diy> bubblegum: yes, I read it, it looks like something broke in dpkg, but I don't have a clue as to how to fix it.
[10:37] <SDMX> t ntfs-rw been in the kernel for like 3 revisions by now?
[10:37] <SDMX> It hasn't had that experimental tag in quite some time.
[10:37] <MacDrunk> hello
[10:37] <MacDrunk> any ideas why i cant install knetwork-fileshare
[10:37] <bubblegum> n2diy: hmmm. damn. i can't reinstall it either....fresh install?
[10:37] <cman321> I'm excited for the improved thumbdrive support gutsy is boasting.
[10:38] <n2diy> bubblegum: yes, that might work, back up your data first.
[10:38] <Enverex> IPTables seems to be running at startup, how do I stop that from happening?
[10:38] <bubblegum> okie dokie
[10:38] <bubblegum> thanks
[10:39] <bulmer> iptables is embedded in
[10:39] <kitche> Enverex: well by default iptables is not setup to block anything but you just have to turn the script off
[10:39] <ubuntuish> /ctcp ping ubuntuish
[10:39] <Enverex> kitche, It seems to be blocking anything from accessing the machine by default (it locks out Samba, SSH, etc) I have to keep opening FireStarter and telling it to stop IPTables before any of it is accessable by any other machine
[10:40] <econobeing> what exactly does "build-essential" install?
[10:40] <jrib> econobeing: apt-cache depends build-essential
[10:40] <econobeing> hmm, what's apt-cache?
[10:40] <blue|palm> steel_lady, its definitely hardware! your best bet is to contact dell...
[10:40] <kitche> Enverex: you must of set it up to block everything most likely but you just have to change the init script either the symlink or by chmod -x the main script
[10:40] <jrib> !apt > econobeing (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:41] <KI4IKL> what was the xorg config command? I know sudo dpkg-configure xorg- <then I dunno the rest>

[10:41] <AlexMax> Hi there.  I'm using xubuntu 7.04, and want to know how to switch the terminal emulator that shows up in the default menu to start rxvt-unicode instead of the default terminal
[10:41] <jrib> AlexMax: you mean the shell right?
[10:41] <SDMX> Can someone clear up how we go about making change requests? This whole gutsy blueprint yadda yadda stuff is kinda weird; I'm not sure where to start.
[10:42] <AlexMax> I've tried update-alternatives and switching the prefered application from within xfce, but they don't seem to have any effect on the terminal that's in the accessories menu
[10:42] <jrib> AlexMax: never mind, I'm dumb.  Just go to system -> preferences -> preferred apps
[10:42] <ubunt1> #squirrelmail
[10:42] <AlexMax> jrih: Already tried that, as stated :>
[10:42] <jrib> AlexMax: for the accessories menu, just create a new shortcut
[10:42] <AlexMax> How?
[10:42] <zeeeee> help, i'm trying to install package ocaml, but i get "WARNING: untrusted versions of the following packages will be installed"
[10:43] <AlexMax> I don't see an obvious way to edit menu options
[10:43] <jrib> AlexMax: oh xfce... hmm.  You can *probably* also use alacarte
[10:43] <zeeeee> this has happened before. last time the problem went away on reboot. but right now i just rebooted. why is my system sometimes not trusting the official repositories?
[10:44] <AlexMax> Also, why is it that when you install gvim you don't get a menu item to go with it?
[10:44] <jrib> AlexMax: you should, I think I've seen a bug filed already on bugs.ubuntu.com
[10:45] <blue|palm> does anybody know if there exists a community of linux developers? Like a forum or IRC based community? (Linux C++ Devs)
[10:46] <AlexMax> Hrm, apparently alacarte says that there IS a menu option for gvim, it's just not enabled
[10:46] <idefixx> zeeeee: 'sudo apt-key list' there should be a key 437D05B5 (called Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key)
[10:46] <LVKeulen> uhmm..
[10:46] <LVKeulen> What was the help channel for Beryl?

[10:47] <ivan> Hmm any idea why I would pick Ubuntu over other distros :) ?
[10:47] <jrib> ivan: try all of them and use the one *you* like best
[10:47] <ivan> :)
[10:47] <idefixx> ivan: because of this awesome support chan :)
[10:47] <ivan> heh
[10:48] <n2diy> ivan: how many other distros have  community support like you see here?
[10:48] <kitche> ivan: you can pick the best one for you use zealots usually don't work to well on chaning someone's mind :)
[10:48] <rjune> Is there a simple way to get Ubuntu to use LDAP auth from an ldap server
[10:48] <blue|palm> jrib, wouldnt that be more univeral? Like including windows? I am a windows dev, wanting to learn more about linux dev (API's etc.)...
[10:48] <kitche> n2diy: about 5 :)
[10:48] <AlexMax> ivan: It's debian based, and debian is seriously the best distro since sliced bread on its own
[10:48] <jrib> blue|palm: well that would be a good place to start I think.  They probably know of more focused forum communities
[10:48] <n2diy> kitche: with 1100 users logged in 24/7
[10:48] <blue|palm> jrib, thanks loads
[10:49] <Eric_Jardas> I created a HOWTO in the forum and it isn't there ? Is it waiting for approval or ?
[10:49] <ivan> AlexMax heh I like slack :P
[10:49] <kitche> n2diy: most are just idle so I don't count them :)
[10:49] <AlexMax> Ubuntu takes debian and includes a sane desktop that requires little configuration to be functional
[10:49] <ivan> but I get what you are saying
[10:49] <jrib> Eric_Jardas: #ubuntuforums
[10:49] <AlexMax> You won't like slack once you start using aptitude
[10:49] <n2diy> kitche: true, but you'll have idlers in the other groups too.
[10:49] <rjune> is aptitude what opens when you do applications->add/remove?
[10:50] <AlexMax> Nope
[10:50] <kitche> rjune: no
[10:50] <ndee> how can I copy the lines 930-till the end into a new file?
[10:50] <AlexMax> Aptitude is a command line program, it's the program that runs 'behind the scenes'
[10:50] <jrib> ndee: in an editor? as a command?
[10:50] <ndee> jrib: as a command
[10:50] <AlexMax> actually, i think that apt is a library and aptitude is just the best way of using it from a command line
[10:50] <jrib> ndee: use 'tail'
[10:50] <ndee> jrib: ok
[10:51] <jrib> ndee: or sed
[10:51] <zeeeee> idefixx, it seems to be there!
[10:51] <idefixx> AlexMax: no apt is a program it uses dpkg to install stuff.
[10:51] <n2diy> AlexMax: aptitude is a gui front end apt
[10:51] <AlexMax> plus you can play minesweeper while you wait for xubuntu-desktop-base to install
[10:51] <n2diy> for apt
[10:51] <aschmitz> Do I need to do anything to get Required-start to work (once I've changed it) in an init.d file? The LSB docs say something about install_initd, but it doesn't seem to be in Ubuntu. Any ideas?
[10:52] <KI4IKL> I was told by someone in the ubuntu channel that gnome wouldn't run well on 128mb ram...it runs perfect for me :)
[10:52] <zeeeee> idefixx, do you know why i'm still getting these errors?
[10:52] <michal_> hi all
[10:52] <idefixx> zeeeee: well in that case there is either something wrong with the repository or you install from a thrid party source.
[10:52] <SDMX> Can someone clear up how we go about making change requests? This whole gutsy blueprint yadda yadda stuff is kinda weird; I'm not sure where to start.
[10:52] <AlexMax> Well yeah, but doesnt aptitude/synaptic/etc. share a common library that interacts with dpkg?
[10:52] <Don> KI4IKL: me too
[10:52] <kitche> KI4IKL: well it doesn't but how much swap do you have bet it's probably using some of it
[10:52] <AlexMax> or do they have their own individual methods?
[10:53] <idefixx> zeeeee: take a look at settings->repositories (if you are in synaptic) and look for third party reps.
[10:53] <michal_> whats up?
[10:53] <zeeeee> idefixx, i'm not installing from third-party sources (i only have one third-party source). ocaml is from the main repositories. i also get the same warning from the update notifier/installer.
[10:53] <roryy> AlexMax: apparently the package 'apt' provides such a library
[10:53] <Tarkus> hey, anyone know where i go to replace the existing login and logout sounds?? i want to change them to something else.. any ideas?
[10:53] <AlexMax> bingo
[10:54] <AS6> hello guys..
[10:54] <aamy> hi, i'm installing the latest release of ubuntu. While installing, I get a choice of what filesystem to use. Which one is most common? The choice I have are: Reiserfs (default), ext2, ext3, jfs, xfs, efi
[10:54] <cootpc> is there a certain channel for ubuntu noobs?
[10:54] <roryy> aamy: reiserfs is the default?  odd.  i thought it was ext3
[10:54] <n2diy> Tarkus: system>prefs>sound
[10:54] <jhasse> Tarkus: you can select an audio file
[10:54] <zeeeee> idefixx, i also have installed keys for my third-party repo
[10:54] <AS6> I`m new to ubuntu. My question is, can i have both ms winxp and ubuntu on the same drive? can i select which os to startup?
[10:55] <Tarkus> n2diy, jhasse: ahh, i see. thanks
[10:55] <jhasse> AS6: yes
[10:55] <kitche> AS^: yes
[10:55] <zeeeee> idefixx, so i don't believe i should be seeing this message
[10:55] <aamy> no, i am installing this over a previous installation of suse 10.0, that may have come with ReiserFs. So ext3 is the default for ubuntu?
[10:55] <AS6> jhasse: how?
[10:55] <roryy> aamy: i believe so
[10:55] <zeeeee> (the update notifier says i need to update e.g. app-install-data-commercial and libxvidcore4, but when i hit install it also warns me about untrusted sources)
[10:55] <jhasse> AS6: when you install the install will create a new partition
[10:55] <roryy> aamy: or rather, i'm pretty sure it is
[10:55] <Surge> xchat default channel?
[10:55] <aamy> okay, thanks a bunch!!
[10:55] <idefixx> zeeeee: what if you install it via 'sudo apt-get install ocaml' ?
[10:56] <jhasse> AS6: you windows partition will get smaller for having space for ubuntu
[10:56] <Surge> wow ubuntu + linux are cool
[10:56] <zeeeee> idefixx, that's what i did
[10:56] <AS6> jhasse: will it format the disk? coz i have some data on the drive.
[10:56] <Surge> beryl is amazing
[10:56] <zeeeee> idefixx, that's what printed the warning
[10:56] <zeeeee> that i pasted
[10:56] <roryy> cootpc: just ask your questions here
[10:56] <Surge> even this, xchat is alot nicer than mirc
[10:56] <AS6> jhass: It wont corrupt my windows?
[10:56] <Tarkus> n2diy, jhasse: is it possible to use a .flac file?? cause it wont let me..
[10:56] <jhasse> AS6: if you select right, it won't. But i would make a backup
[10:57] <n2diy> Tarkus: I don't know, never heard of that format?
[10:57] <AS6> jhasse: thank u very much, buddy
[10:57] <Surge> should I stay with the nvidia drivers from system > administration > restricted drivers?
[10:57] <Surge> or get the latest offa the nvidia site?
[10:57] <idefixx> zeeeee: hmm... maybe its the mirror you're downloading form.. did you try to change it?
[10:57] <Tarkus> n2diy, you never heard of .flac?
[10:57] <Surge> anyone?
[10:57] <roryy> !flac | tarkus
[10:57] <ubotu> tarkus: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[10:57] <kitche> Surge: you would have to go though some steps to use the one from their site on ubuntu
[10:57] <Surge> oic
[10:57] <n2diy> Tarkus: Nope, but I don't play with audio stuff very often.
[10:58] <Surge> I'll do the automatic one then
[10:58] <roryy> Surge: i'd stick with the default ones unless you need something specific
[10:58] <Surge> the cube isn't very smooth rotation wise
[10:58] <Surge> no v-tearing, but jerky kinda
[10:58] <kitche> Surge: well your probably using the nv driver
[10:58] <DrFEAR> hi to all
[10:58] <DrFEAR> again
[10:58] <XiCillin> im trying to chnage my menu icon but gconf-editor doesn't have any dropdown menu to change to 'custom-icon'
[10:58] <DrFEAR> XD
[10:58] <XiCillin> anybody dne this?
[10:58] <zeeeee> idefixx, how do i do that? here's my sources.list http://rafb.net/p/l9M1Mi17.html the only third-party (non-ubuntu.com) repo is the last one
[10:58] <aamy> i'm installing ubuntu on my desktop right now, it didn't ask me to configure GRUB (to dual boot with windows) yet....i'm kinda worried, don't want to loose the ability to boot into windows just yet. is GRUB autoconfigured?
[10:58] <jhasse> kitche: Does compiz work with nv?
[10:58] <Surge> I used the one that downloaded automatically through restricted drivers
[10:58] <silvius> hi all
[10:59] <XiCillin> aamy, don't worry
[10:59] <Surge> what else is there to beryl?
[10:59] <silvius> whats the command to login as root in ubuntu terminal ?
[10:59] <zeeeee> idefixx, as you can see  i'm not using any mirrors
[10:59] <XiCillin> GRUB will detect your windows partition
[10:59] <kitche> jhasse: though aiglx it does I believe
[10:59] <Surge> I've seen videos where the application windows pop out of the cube
[10:59] <DrFEAR> I need to use sudo again, I activated a su password, how do I get back?
[10:59] <bruenig> silvius, there is no root account
[10:59] <aamy> XiCillin: that's a relief....thank you!
[10:59] <Deinumite> Surge: you have to enable a certain 3d effect in beryl, ive got it running
[10:59] <jhasse> kitche: oh cool. I have to try out.
[11:00] <Surge> must.... find
[11:00] <kitche> DrFEAR: just use sudo it should still work even if root does have a password and unlocked
[11:00] <Taromsn> So lowering the number of allowed connections did not keep it from happening
[11:00] <Taromsn> My internet still cuts out after 10-15 minutes of torrenting
[11:00] <idefixx> zeeeee: no mirros are ok. but your using feisty-proposed and feisty-backports try to comment them and run 'sudo apt-get update'
[11:01] <zeeeee> idefixx, ok let me try. (are those supposed to be untrusted?)
[11:01] <DrFEAR> kitche: Right...I've never tried that, sorry!
[11:01] <DrFEAR> kitche: Thanks!
[11:01] <zeeeee> (does this mean i cannot use them trustingly for some reason?)
[11:01] <econobeing> Taromsn: what's your torrent program?
[11:01] <idefixx> zeeeee: im not sure but they might use a differnt key... if its not that im out of options.
[11:01] <silvius> the problem is i need to change my monitor resolution manual and it won't work if i'm not loggee in as root
[11:01] <Surge> holy crap
[11:02] <Surge> super+scroll is BLOWING MY MIND
[11:02] <kitche> !caps | Surge
[11:02] <ubotu> Surge: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[11:02] <Surge> -_-
[11:02] <erUSUL> silvius: it will work with sudo as allways
[11:02] <kitche> !offtopic | Surge your a bit offtopic
[11:02] <ubotu> Surge your a bit offtopic: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:02] <Flannel> silvius: You don't.  Edit the file with sudo, (gksu gedit /file or sudo nano /file)
[11:02] <cootpc> brand new to ubuntu, when installing, my screen rez is so low i can't see everything...tried to increase rez in sys preferences...but 640x480 was biggest...any ideas
[11:02] <silvius> ok thanks
[11:02] <PriceChild> !fixres > cootpc (see pm from ubotu)
[11:02] <zeeeee> idefixx, that worked
[11:03] <zeeeee> idefixx, the warnings went away
[11:03] <zeeeee> so...does that mean i need to find out what those repos' keys are?
[11:03] <idefixx> zeeeee: well in that case google for the key to feisty-proposed and backport i dont know where to get them.. but im sure they are around :)
[11:03] <kitche> zeeeee: it's probbaly due to propose since that repo is mostly used for fixes that are not ready to go into the three main repos
[11:03] <cootpc> thanks pricechild
[11:04] <beta-guy> got KDE install an working fine under PS3
[11:04] <beta-guy> that was for kermans
[11:04] <zeeeee> idefixx, hmm...it seems that it doesn't even matter that i commented them out. i uncommented, ran update, and the warnings are still gone.
[11:04] <zeeeee> seems all i needed was an update.
[11:04] <beta-guy> khermans
[11:04] <zeeeee> no idea why.
[11:04] <Pazy> Can someone help me, i downloaded KDE using the Synaptic thing and now when i boot it calls Ubuntu 'Kubuntu', is there anyway to get it back to the original sign in screen without removing KDE?
[11:04] <idefixx> zeeeee: you'll have to add it to your apt keyring (apt-key)... but fyi you can install untrested packages since its just a warining. it just means they are not singned so they might contain unsave code.
[11:05] <cod> .
[11:05] <madman91> OMG guys
[11:05] <kitche> Pazy: use gdm instead of kdm sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[11:05] <TiagooO> \0/
[11:05] <madman91> kde uses my mouse properly... but gnome sees my scrolly as left and right
[11:05] <fjr> I need some help wth some mac->ubuntu file transfers
[11:05] <idefixx> zeeeee: odd.. im not sure how apt caches the packges.gpg but afaik know it should get them on every update... well if it worked :)
[11:05] <Pazy> kitche: can you say that again using simple words, im fairly new to this
[11:06] <aschmitz> How can I get an init.d script to wait until another one is finished to run?
[11:06] <daylighter> has anyone else had problems with Nvidia drivers after the recent updates?
[11:06] <tarzeau> daylighter: no
[11:06] <kitche> Pazy: type this in a terminal sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm should make your login go back to gdm instead of kdm
[11:06] <idefixx> zeeeee: on second thought its has to get it on updates.. well if it happens again you know what to do.
[11:06] <PriceChild> daylighter, did you install the drivers manually? ie not using ubuntu packages
[11:06] <Pazy> ah thanks so much
[11:06] <zeeeee> idefixx, yep :)
[11:06] <zeeeee> thanks for your help
[11:06] <daylighter> I had to download the drivers, recompile my kernel interface, and everything else.. thank god for lynx
[11:07] <kitche> daylighter: if you manually install the driver of course you will have a broken nvidia driver on a kernel update since the interface is different
[11:07] <daylighter> oh, that's weird kitche, because the last time I had a kernel update it was fine... hmm
[11:08] <kitche> daylighter: you were probably using the ubuntu packaged driver before most likely
[11:08] <daylighter> yeah, probably
[11:09] <AlexMax> I just installed Bitlbee, but I don't think it's coming up.  Anyone else have any experience with that package?
[11:09] <kitche> AlexMax: bitlbee doesn't have a menu for it
[11:09] <daylighter> I guess I'm moving out of the super-newb range since when I saw what x was telling me, I logged in, opened lynx, downloaded the driver, sudo sh'd it and let it install, then started gdm again :)
[11:09] <AlexMax> I know, but even after I install it and edit the conf file, I can't connect to it
[11:10] <drsys> hello people
[11:10] <idefixx> daylighter: nice :) log reading 4tw !
[11:10] <kitche> AlexMax: how are you connecting to it?
[11:10] <daylighter> indeed idefixx
[11:10] <drsys> how can i install & setup selinux on ubuntu 7.04 server ?
[11:10] <AlexMax> 	[ERROR] 	Connection to irc://<IP_ADDRESS>/ (irc://<IP_ADDRESS>/) refused. Reconnecting in 15 seconds.

[11:11] <silvius> hey guys its working i'm now in the xserver configuration menu, i need to tell him what vga card i have, its a standard intel card on a aspire 5630 laptop can i put it on vga ?
[11:11] <AlexMax> I am aware.
[11:11] <drsys> how can i install & setup selinux on ubuntu 7.04 server ?can anybody help?
[11:12] <kitche> n2diy: he installed bitlbee locally
[11:12] <n2diy> kitche: Ok, never heard of bitlbee?
[11:13] <kitche> n2diy: it's an irc based gateway to the im servers
[11:13] <robdeman> folks, can anybody give me an example for commandline when I want to use all files from /mnt/backup/MP3/* to /home/rob/MP3/ ?
[11:14] <GrueTamer> robdeman: like, copy them?
[11:14] <robdeman> no move
[11:14] <drsys> how can i install & setup selinux on ubuntu 7.04 server ?can anybody help?
[11:14] <rgl> hi
[11:14] <GrueTamer> um...it may be...
[11:14] <zabin> robdeman use mv
[11:14] <Flannel> !repeat | drsys
[11:14] <ubotu> drsys: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:14] <robdeman> I know
[11:14] <n2diy> kitche: Ok, that would explain why I never heard of it. :)
[11:14] <zabin> mv /files /locaiont
[11:14] <robdeman> but it says stuff like cannot overwrite target directory and stuff
[11:14] <GrueTamer> mv /mnt/backup/MP3/* /home/rob/MP3
[11:14] <rgl> is there a way to make ubuntu not touch /etc/resolv.conf while running the dhcp client?
[11:14] <n2diy> drsys: I thought selinux was a Red Hat product?
[11:14] <zabin> right
[11:15] <idefixx> robdeman: 'mv -R /mnt/backup/MP3/* /home/rob/MP3/'
[11:15] <drsys> not only is it?
[11:15] <Flannel> No, not only.
[11:15] <kitche> AlexMax: I never locally installed bitlbee before I only used the remote server that they run myself
[11:15] <drsys> i think it runs on linux generally isnt it?
[11:15] <n2diy> drsys: I don't know for sure?
[11:16] <n2diy> ! selinux
[11:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about selinux - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:16] <AlexMax> kitche: Why bother when bitlbee (should be) cake to set up?
[11:16] <AlexMax> Works fine in debian
[11:16] <AlexMax> ! bitlbee
[11:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bitlbee - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:17] <PriceChild> !info bitlbee
[11:17] <kitche> AlexMax: because it's just extra weight on my system, it's just as easy to use their servers :)
[11:17] <sx66> huh?
[11:17] <ubotu> bitlbee: An IRC to other chat networks gateway. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.3-1.3ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 308 kB, installed size 780 kB
[11:17] <Flannel> drsys: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SELinux might be enough to get you started
[11:17] <AlexMax> kitche: Go to a terminal and type in "man mt"
[11:18] <KI4IKL> Will the .deb package for avg work for ubuntu?
[11:18] <kitche> AlexMax: umm ok? magentic tape maniplating program?
[11:18] <AlexMax> Betcha didn't know that was on your computer, did you.
[11:18] <ramatieg> Can anyone recommend an incremental (versioned) backup system. Any comments on duplicity versus rdiff-backup?
[11:18] <GrueTamer> KI4IKL: it should
[11:19] <kitche> AlexMax: I know almost everything on my computer sicne I built it from scratch
[11:19] <XiCillin> none of these change panel menu icon howto's work
[11:19] <XiCillin> and they're all the same
[11:19] <XiCillin> :(
[11:19] <KI4IKL> I also have an issue with my firefox...the cursor, when inside the page part of firefox, blinks over and over and over.

[11:19] <AlexMax> My point is that in the age of gigahertzs of CPU processing, fat broadband pipes, gigabytes of RAM and video cards that can pump out billions of triangles per second, a small inted program 'taking up resources on your computer' is the least of your worries
[11:20] <AlexMax> there's *always* going to be cruft in a linux distro
[11:20] <Prognatus> Hello, anybody know where the nightly builds can be obtained?
[11:20] <kitche> AlexMax: not mine as I said I built it myself
[11:20] <Seveas> Prognatus, cdimage.ubuntu.com
[11:20] <AlexMax> And yet you still have 'useless' programs laying around your system that you never knew existed
[11:21] <Prognatus> Thank you, Seveas! :D
[11:21] <kitche> AlexMax: umm you sure it's useless to me ?
[11:21] <AlexMax> Should be, I ran Gentoo once and it actually didn't have mt, and it worked fine.
[11:21] <AlexMax> Unless you're running a mainfraime somewhere that I dont know about
[11:22] <cootpc> i went to the FixYourResHowto and it didn't help anything, says all the command are unknown
[11:22] <Seveas> heh, mt :)
