[17:16] <A-KO> rreyes: alternatively many might recommend using apache + phpmyadmin though that's not the preferable solution.....
[17:16] <oCean_> shabgard: which, by default in apache2, is /var/www. So, in your case, it tries to find the /var/www/nagios subdir, and it says "cannot find"
[17:17] <shabgard> Oh...i checked
[17:17] <porter1> How do we add textboxes to openoffice presenter?
[17:17] <rreyes> A-KO: phpMyAdmin might do the job, that's right. Why do you say it isn't the preferable solution? because it is not a traditional GUI?
[17:17] <arvind_khadri> porter1, by choosing a layout, onto your right hand side
[17:18] <shabgard> i don't found /var/www/nagis....what?
[17:19] <goncalopp> Drknezz: Tough i can't find the remote anywhere in the lshw, it is listed in lsusb, and I can get keystrokes with xev
[17:19] <A-KO> rreyes: because it involves setting up apache, php, and then myadmin, and preferably setup at the very least a self-signed certificate set for SSL to run (or of course over another encryption solution such as VPN)
[17:19] <porter1> arvind, I guess there's not much of a way except copying another textbox.
[17:19] <A-KO> but if that's the road you wanna take :D
[17:19] <A-KO> it's not that hard
[17:19] <A-KO> just more work than a single gui client, that's all
[17:19] <oCean_> shabgard: well, since you followd instructions from internet, I don't know were nagios is actually installed. But you need a link from /var/www DocumentRoot to the directory where the files are.
[17:20] <goncalopp> Drknezz, you're there?
[17:21] <rreyes> A-KO: Then any good GUI?
[17:21] <shabgard> yes..exactly...this link /var/www/  exsit
[17:21] <wrektjet> goncalopp: i dont really undersatnd what you are saying.  would u mind spelling it out for me. im a lil on the new/slow side
[17:21] <pulgoki> is there a way to limit sudo to the local keyboard?
[17:22] <oCean_> shabgard: yes, I understand, but you need a link from /var/www to the actual nagios install (maybe in /usr/local/nagios)
[17:22] <goncalopp> wrektjet: ok, get to the console first. in the menu, applicaitions->acessories->terminal
[17:22] <wrektjet> that im in
[17:22] <zagabar1> Yo guys.
[17:22] <goncalopp> wrektjet: ok, did you navigate to the correct directory?
[17:23] <wrektjet> do u mean in the terminal
[17:23] <goncalopp> wrektjet:yes
[17:23] <_DEL> cn someone help me with an issue dealing with sudo privilages?
[17:23] <arvind_khadri> _DEL, ask
[17:23] <shabgard> I don't think.
[17:23] <oCean_> shabgard: If the nagios tutuorial does not work, you should ask there. Ubuntu has it in it's repositories. So, If you're up for it, I suggest you re-install from repositories
[17:23] <goncalopp> wrektjet: ok. where is your directory, pathwise?
[17:23] <goncalopp> wrektjet: desktop?
[17:23] <wrektjet> im workin on it
[17:24] <zagabar1> I have some problems. Trying to write a disc, but the burner that comes with ubuntu don't want to. When it is about to start burning it ejects the CD telling me that 654 MiB is needed to burn.  However, they are too fast for me to read, are they logged somewhere?
[17:25] <zagabar1> HammerHead66: But this program worked before. :S
[17:25] <goncalopp> Anyone there has experience with a remote recognized as an USB keyboard?
[17:25] <HammerHead66> zagabar1: use K3b to burn it will allow you to not have to eject to verify cd
[17:26] <zagabar1> Okay, I can try it.
[17:26] <rreyes> A-KO: Tried navicat but it never got off the ground.  One could call it a keyboard... I'm not sure I'm helping though...
[17:27] <wrektjet> ohhh i figured out how to find the path :) you click that notepad in the file browser!
[17:27] <goncalopp> wrektjet: yea
[17:27] <wrektjet> goncalopp: i have the directory path
[17:27] <wrektjet> i was trying to use whereis command and not gettin it
[17:27] <HammerHead66> zagabar1:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/k3b/+bug/72609 if you need instructions go to this link scroll down til you see my post and follow the info there ok
[17:27] <pseubodot> Huufarted: do-release-upgrade fails at the 'Updating repository information' prompt
[17:28] <zagabar1> HammerHead66: Ok, thanks.
[17:28] <pseubodot> Huufarted: can't find 'gutsy' packages on old-releases.ubuntu.com
[17:28] <sky_> hi i need tool wit gui where i can edit grub, splash etc
[17:28] <HammerHead66> zagabar1: np
[17:29] <goncalopp> armence: yes, trouble is, it should be recognized as an IR device, but it seems the usb presents itself as a keyboard. that's not a problem in itself, but i need to somehow modify the keys, and preferably use it in LIRC
[17:29] <wrektjet> goncalopp: so now by run it with ./ what exactly does that mean? b/c this didnt work: sudo /home/marc/deluge-1.1.5+dfsg python setup.py build
[17:30] <goncalopp> wrektjet: hoa. ok, you should navigate there first. just do 'cd /home/marc/deluge-1.1.5+dfsg'
[17:30] <sky_> i know on ubuntu is some tool with gui where i can edit grub and splash...but i dont remember name....anyone know ?
[17:31] <the_eraser> hi anyone know a conky like app easier to configure?
[17:31] <o0Chris0o> !crosspost |the_eraser
[17:31] <wrektjet> ok awesome
[17:31] <the_eraser> oops
[17:32] <laeg> sky_: can't you do that through nano?
[17:32] <|PaperTiger|> Anyone here dual boot with Windows?
[17:32] <wrektjet> goncalopp, thanks
[17:32] <goncalopp> wrektjet: then, run it just like a shell script. i.e:    './setup.py'
[17:32] <Zair> Sorry, could I bother you guys with a quick simple question about ordering the Ubuntu CDs?
[17:32] <laeg> |PaperTiger|: yes
[17:32] <_DEL> |PaperTiger| i once did
[17:32] <goncalopp> wrektjet: you managed to make it work?
[17:32] <sky_> laeg: i have fear that i can anything destroy
[17:33] <Zair> On Desktop they don't give an option for 64-bit, do the CDs come with both 32 and 64 bit versions of the OS?
[17:33] <HammerHead66> Zair: yes
[17:33] <wrektjet> yep i didnt know about navigating to the directory. that will prob help many times in the future :)
[17:33] <|PaperTiger|> laeg: After using Super Grub Disk to reinstall GRUB launcher, Windows now won't launch. Any suggestions?
[17:33] <arvind_khadri> !anyone | |PaperTiger|
[17:33] <Zair> HammerHead66, Just to clearify, you said yes to that if I order the CD they give both 32 and 64 bit edition?
[17:33] <Huufarted> Question about themes.  In Gnome, to install a new theme, you just untar a file into your home directory and BOOM it's done.  Anybody know what the script is or which files have to be backed up to save a current theme's state?
[17:33] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: you can use fixmbr then try to fix grub with live cd :X
[17:33] <sjokkis> is pulseaudio in intrepid broken? i can't start it with /etc/init.d/pulseaudio start, and running mplayer with the pulse driver fails
[17:34] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: How do I do that?
[17:34] <HammerHead66> Zair: what I ment was you havea choice of one or the other
[17:34] <HammerHead66> Zair: sorry about the confusion
[17:34] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: which windows ?
[17:34] <Zair> HammerHead66, I get the choice when I choose server edition, but when I choose Desktop edition I can only pick how many CDs
[17:34] <|PaperTiger|> XP x64...
[17:35] <tarelerulz> I have been trying to user my mic on my laptop . It has one mic input , 2 headphone out puts and a mic on top of the screen . I have no idea which is the headset mic or the screen mics.  I had it working . I used the volume to chose the mic don't seem to work . How might I fix this
[17:35] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: boot from cd and then there will be some for repairing....you will see console and then type there fixmbr
[17:35] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: From the Windows CD?
[17:36] <zagabar1> Hmm, Now I tried K3b and it said "Cdrecord has no permission to open the device"
[17:36] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: yes
[17:36] <zagabar1> What does that mean?
[17:36] <HammerHead66> Zair: ok if you are going for desktop what kind of cpu do you have?
[17:36] <goncalopp> is /dev/input/mice supposed to input something when you move the mouse?
[17:36] <computer_> Hey im using ubuntu and i have a lexmark 510 series. ubuntu recognises the printer and has selected it as default etc etc, now when i attempt to print a file i can view the job in the job que and it says processing but i get no output from the printer. any ideas?
[17:36] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Just to double check, that does NOT do anything to files at all?
[17:36] <goncalopp> I meant, output something
[17:37] <Zair> HammerHead66, AMD64 bit Athalon, and AMD64-Quad Phenom (or however it's spelt)
[17:37] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: no it just repair mbr table...or you can all date save via linuxe -> live cd
[17:37] <HammerHead66> Zair: you can use 32bit or 64bit witch ever you would like
[17:37] <feliphe> hello have one account psybnc free¿
[17:38] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Linux boots, but not Windows. So I'm trying to get into Windows to A) Reformat the backup drive and B) copy the data to the backup drive
[17:38] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: So there is no need to use the LiveCD
[17:38] <Zair> HammerHead66, You're missing my question, I'm at the page https://shipit.ubuntu.com/  I choose 'request a CD of Ubuntu Desktop Edition' it does not offer me the option to pick 64-bit. If I choose server I can pick, but not Desktop for some reason
[17:38] <zagabar1> HammerHead66: K3b said "Cdrecord has no permission to open the device"
[17:39] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: fixmbr fix the windows boot problem but only windows will boot now...but i think its easier repair then linux booting as windows
[17:39] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Also, what would that do to the GRUB launcher? Would that overwrite that?
[17:39] <HammerHead66> Zair: ok I see what up
[17:40] <patricio> can soome one help me with iphone support un intrepid?
[17:40] <kushal_12_27_200> write something ...
[17:40] <eqisow1> zagabar1:  There should be a configure option for k3b where you can fix the permissions. It will ask you for your password to do it
[17:40] <eqisow1> zagabar1: It usually does it on first run
[17:40] <HammerHead66> Zair: can you burn cd's?
[17:41] <audifahrer> Hello
[17:41] <_DEL> what deskop environent has the fewest extras included with it, like gnome comes with several small games and all? I would like to install the smallest one. I have been using flux for quite some time but all I know of are gnome, kde, and the flux
[17:41] <Tuxist> hi
[17:41] <Zair> HammerHead66, yes, I actually alrady have done that too. I'm a computer technician and it'd be a lot better if I had actual pressed discs rather than burned ones. Also it'd look a lot more professional if I did. I only need one copy of each 64 and 32 bit versions
[17:41] <zagabar1> eqisow1: I could see the device in settings in k3b, but where do I set the permission?
[17:42] <audifahrer> I like to backport gtk+-2.14.4 to hardy. It needs libcups2-dev (>= 1.2). Is this a drop in replacement for libcups? Or do I run into bigger problems?
[17:42] <eqisow1> _DEL: Flux isn't technically a DE, it's a window manager. Try XFCE, but you can remove the games and such for any of them
[17:42] <EvilRoey> hi
[17:42] <EvilRoey> question
[17:42] <EvilRoey> Hello.. So a Server and a Desktop release share the same repositories.  So what does it mean when the Deskop gets EOL'd?  Do security updates come out only for the Server components and not for the Desktop ones (say, GNOME)?
[17:42] <FloodBot1> EvilRoey: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:42] <LjL> audifahrer: it's probably just "libcupsys2-dev" renamed
[17:42] <o0Chris0o> !enter EvilRoey
[17:42] <o0Chris0o> !enter | EvilRoey
[17:42] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Would Fixmbr delete the grub launcher?
[17:43] <LjL> audifahrer: i'd try just making it depend on libcupsys2-dev instead of libcup2-dev
[17:43] <Zair> HammerHead66, I use Ubuntu (both versions) as part of my toolkit to fix computers everywhere I go. I just want to have some proper discs in my set rather than burned ones that are no garentee are burned right. Also CD-R discs are prone to corrupt in simple sunlight within minutes
[17:43] <laeg> i've done make, make check but when i try make install i get http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/136158/ what am i doing wrong?
[17:43] <Crip> hey guys im after a ftp client that supports PRET
[17:43] <Crip> ?
[17:43] <shabgard> yohoooooooo..!! I can activate start nagios ...:))))
[17:43] <audifahrer> LjL: I'll try it. Where in the "debian" directory could I change this?
[17:43] <_DEL> eqisow1, oh ok. are there any other window mangers similar?
[17:43] <laeg> just needed a sudo i think.
[17:44] <HammerHead66> well I would burn Ubuntu 8.04 32bit and 8.04 64bit they are the most stable
[17:44] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: yes
[17:44] <shabgard> I used as package nagios3.deb
[17:44] <HammerHead66> Zair: well I would burn Ubuntu 8.04 32bit and 8.04 64bit they are the most stable
[17:44] <babo> how do i find which driver a device is using ?
[17:44] <Crip> hey guys im after a ftp client that supports PRET , can anyone help ?
[17:44] <eqisow1> _DEL: to flux? IceWM, blackbox, openbox, and others
[17:44] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: What is the easiest way to get the GRUB launcher back after that?
[17:44] <LjL> audifahrer: debian/control i think
[17:44] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: some small live distro ?
[17:44] <shabgard> This link helped :http://beginlinux.com/blog/2008/11/install-nagios-3-on-ubuntu-810/
[17:44] <Zair> HammerHead66, burned discs corrpt far too easily. That's why I'm after pressed discs
[17:45] <LjL> audifahrer: change both the build dependency (libcups2-dev) and the runtime one (libcups2)
[17:45] <sky_> !grub
[17:45] <cristi_> witch one is best fedora or ubuntu i don`t know what to chose
[17:45] <LjL> !best
[17:45] <shabgard> bye..ubuntu team..best regards
[17:45] <HammerHead66> Zair: the 8.10 might be free but it is a test version
[17:45] <_DEL> eqisow1, ok, just googled it, do you know how well enlightenment is?
[17:45] <Zair> HammerHead66, it's a huge waste of time having to make Ubuntu do a disc consistancy check every time I work on a computer. I never know if the disc got corrupt, or if there's something wrong with the computer I'm working on
[17:45] <sky_> cristi_: ubuntu is .deb distro and fedora is .rpm
[17:45] <cristi_> ok
[17:45] <Scunizi> cristi_: you've been in here before asking the same question.. you know that is for #ubuntu-offtopic..
[17:46] <eqisow1> _DEL: never tried it, but it's designed to be simple, so if that's your thing...
[17:46] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Because I want to back up files from both a Linux and Windows installation. So, unless someone could help me reformat a HDD within Ubuntu, I'll need to boot to Linux AFTER getting access to Windows, formatting the HDD and backing up them files.
[17:46] <HammerHead66> Zair: you burning on a laptop?
[17:46] <user___> Crip: apt-cache show kftpgrabber
[17:46] <Zair> HammerHead66, it never helps if you don't know if a burned disc went corrupt or if the computer you're repairing has bad RAM/CPU/Optical Drive/etc.
[17:46] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: then is easy https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub
[17:46] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Thanks
[17:46] <_DEL> eqisow1, aight.
[17:47] <Zair> HammerHead66, I have both desktop and laptop multi-drivers (CD/DVD combo)
[17:47] <Zair> multi-drives*
[17:47] <HammerHead66> Zair: burn it on desktop and verify it
[17:47] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Would it be easier to format the HDD now, copy the files from Linux across now, then get it to boot to Windows and boot then
[17:47] <_DEL> anyone, if i was to delete gnome, would all the programs i added go with it, or just those that come with gnome?
[17:47] <cristi_> Zair: if you are using a laptot, laptot cd drives work the worst when burning
[17:47] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Because after that, I want to do a complete reinstallation.
[17:48] <pulgoki> is there a way to limit sudo to the local keyboard? "no remote usage"
[17:48] <Zair> HammerHead66, as I said, even if I burn it successfully, mere sunlight can corrupt the disc. Pressed discs don't have that flaw
[17:48] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: reinstalllation is not good way to solve problems...but ok
[17:48] <HammerHead66> try and keep it out of the sun
[17:48] <_DEL> ie gparted, unetbootin, and few others
[17:48] <Zair> HammerHead66, CD-R uses photosensitive ink. Pressed discs are shaped metal/plastic wafers
[17:48] <HammerHead66> Zair: try and keep it out of the sun
[17:48] <audifahrer> LjL: oh no, it needs  libglib2.0-dev :-(
[17:49] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: This is complete reinstallation to make the system more stable and install a different version of Windows
[17:49] <cristi_> Hammerhead66: sunlight damages the disk by melting them very slowly
[17:49] <dan457> Standard CD case works fine.  I rarely have a burned disk go bad.
[17:49] <Zair> HammerHead66, 'keep it out of the sun' is what I already try to do. But when you're testing computers every single day, I need to know my disc works. If the disc is corrupt I could spend days checking RAM/CPU/Drives/etc. trying to figure out why there's a boot failer
[17:49] <Zair> failure*
[17:49] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: delete windows :D
[17:50] <HammerHead66> put is on a flash drive
[17:50] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Plus, my windows system is REALLY messy through bad practice.
[17:50] <eqisow1> zagabar1: I'm not in front of my computer atm and I can't remember k3b well enough to help you, but you should be able to add yourself to the cdrom group manually like this: usermod -a -G cdrom yourname
[17:50] <cristi_> !failure > cristi
[17:50] <LjL> pulgoki: there is the "requiretty" option of sudoers, but i can't think of much else
[17:50] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Why do you think I'm using Linux now, I would if it wasn't for games!
[17:50] <HammerHead66> Zair: put it on a flash drive
[17:50] <LjL> !msgthebot | cristi_
[17:50] <Zair> HammerHead66, that option only works on computers with USB 2.0!
[17:50] <pulgoki> LjL: a remote shell login is a tty yes?
[17:50] <_DEL> wine, |PaperTiger|
[17:51] <LjL> pulgoki: i'm afraid so. that will only stop things like rsh
[17:51] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: And Windows even fails at playing games at the moment, because I have the 64-bit edition and it's shit
[17:51] <|PaperTiger|> _DEL: Wine doesn't always work great for me.
[17:51] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: i play under linux a lot of games
[17:51] <sin> Hello everyone, What command can I use to see which sata controller I have or chipset?
[17:51] <pulgoki> LjL: well at least that is a form of security
[17:51] <Zair> HammerHead66, I work on ALL TYPES of computers. I'm a techncian. I keep trying to explain that. I work on ones with no USB, DVD-only, CD-only, only USB, etc. I have Ubuntu burned/copied in every form possible. CD is the most used by far with all computers to date
[17:51] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: What type of games?
[17:51] <pulgoki> LjL: maybe at that point just limit ssh to trusted ip's
[17:51] <eqisow1> |PaperTiger| I run XP 64 myself, and it works very well. perhaps there is something wrong with your particular install/setup
[17:51] <rashed2020> anyone know an ubuntu based NAS distro?
[17:51] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: WoW, CS, Warhammer online, medieval total war.....
[17:52] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: Possibly...
[17:52] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Using Wine?
[17:52] <sky_> eqisow1: he mean windows 64
[17:52] <Zair> HammerHead66, Unlike DVD that uses crystal that resists corruption from light sources, CD-R is VERY easy to corrupt. Pressed disc is the only safe way to have CDs when doing sensitive work
[17:52] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: yes
[17:52] <Crip> hey guys im after a ftp client that supports PRET , can anyone help ?
[17:52] <dan457> Zair:  My favorite method to install.. use remastersys on my main box to make a custom install DVD, then use the USB startup disk creator to make a bootable flash disk
[17:52] <eqisow1> sky_: So do I. Windows XP 64bit ed.
[17:52] <HammerHead66> Zair: sorry man I don't know what to tell you then...but keep extra copies around to check it if you have to
[17:53] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Lucky. What's the graphics support like though? 'cos I'm not great with Linux just yet.
[17:53] <Zair> dan457, That's a useful tip for the flash and DVD methods at least, thanks
[17:53] <Crip> hey guys im after a ftp client that supports PRET , can anyone help ?
[17:53] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: It must just be my setup that sucks...
[17:53] <eqisow1> PaperTiger: As long as your running nvidia, it's great. ATI is hit and miss
[17:53] <Akkernight> Why is my panel which shows my opened applications not working? The opened applications don't show down there...
[17:53] <sky_> eqisow1: yea ati fail
[17:54] <Cyberworm> hi
[17:54] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: nvidia 8600 GT
[17:54] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: ATi Radeon X1600 PRO... Mine's not great for Linux support I don't think
[17:54] <Cyberworm> I got a problem with my keyboard and first-person shooter (Laptop keyboard-only works)
[17:54] <regtech> hi all
[17:54] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: yea ati really fail under linux
[17:54] <Zair> HammerHead66, I'll have at least one disc ordered so I at least have the 32-bit edition then. I don't know why only server offers 64-bit discs. I'm also confused why you can only order the less stable 8.10 rather than 8.04LTS
[17:55] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: I can't have full screen graphics, like films etc.
[17:55] <regtech> i need to determine which ip is connected to my vnc server, its tunnelled through SSH
[17:55] <glen_> hello, can someone help me mount a nvidia raid
[17:55] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Hence, one of the FEW reasons I still use Windows. Also, I like my G15 keyboard too :)
[17:55] <HammerHead66> Zair: because they want people to test 8.10 lol
[17:55] <eqisow1> |PaperTiger| You will probably be OK since that's a slightly older card
[17:55] <Zair> HammerHead66, really?.. odd.. anyways thanks for the help then
[17:56] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: I can't have full screen graphics, like films etc.
[17:56] <Zair> HammerHead66, I have some work to do now
[17:56] <HammerHead66> Zair: no problem
[17:56] <eqisow1> Paper: with fglrx?
[17:56] <HammerHead66> Zair: take care
[17:56] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: i like environment without viruses, trojans and spyware :P
[17:56] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: Tried
[17:56] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: me too, another reason why I use Ubuntu as my main OS
[17:56] <zenwryly> My firefox "search google for" context menu broke recently.  Anyone else seen this?
[17:56] <Zair> HammerHead66, thanks for the help
[17:57] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: and Windows if I HAVE to... lol
[17:57] <zenwryly> it just goes to the home page

[17:57] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: Doesn't help I'm not really experienced with Linux too tbh.
[17:57] <eqisow1> |Papertiger| It might be worth it to try radeonhd with your card
[17:57] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: Which is what?
[17:57] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: but funny is that you can gain viruses to your windows partition if you use linux only :D
[17:57] <evilGUI> Akkernight: Right click the bar and click add to pannel.
[17:57] <_DEL> whats wrong with viruses, trojans spyware, and all the other pesky crap, sky_?
[17:58] <eqisow1> |PaperTiger| The new open source driver novell is working on with the AMD released specs

[17:58] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: :D
[17:58] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Windows BS'd on my playing CS:S

[17:59] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: Was not happy... XD
[17:59] <sky_> |PaperTiger|: i play CSS under ubuntu :)
[17:59] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: How do I get to xorg.conf?
[17:59] <[flx]> redtach:netstat doesn't work?
[17:59] <|PaperTiger|> sky_: I can't even watch a film in Ubuntu at the moment :( Bad graphics, flickers on full screen
[17:59] <Cyberworm> someone who could help me with my problem?
[18:00] <eqisow1> papertiger: Alt+F2 then run gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Replace "fglrx" with "radeonhd"
[18:00] <__mikem> I am having trouble with Naive Bayes classifiers in gnome
[18:00] <HammerHead66> Cyberworm: just ask
[18:00] <Cyberworm> I already did
[18:00] <evilGUI> zenwryly: Mines working fine, you could remove your firefox profile and see if it fixes it.
[18:00] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: So download xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd first, then do what you just said?
[18:00] <Cyberworm> I got a problem with my keyboard and first-person shooters
[18:00] <HammerHead66> Cyberworm: just tell what the problem is
[18:01] <eqisow1> |PaperTiger|: yes
[18:01] <glen__> did anyone reply to my question? Sorry i got disconnected
[18:01] <Cyberworm> that problem always occurs when my external keyboard is plugged-in
[18:01] <HammerHead66> Cyberworm: if anyone knows they will talk to you
[18:01] <zenwryly> evilGUI: good suggestion
[18:01] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: Shall do, thank you

[18:13] <Cyberworm> yes
[18:13] <HammerHead66> k
[18:13] <cristi_> it supports 1600x1200
[18:13] <gartral> cristi_: are you already running restricted drivers, or is this a fresh ubuntu install?

[18:21] <psychic> thank you
[18:21] <[flx]> anco: you mean you want to find the packages you have delete?
[18:21] <AnCo> flx : the bot game me the command "aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > my-packages" to make packages list
[18:22] <|PaperTiger|> eqisow1: So Alt+F2 and run "gkus gparted"?
[18:22] <LjL> AnCo: you can also just do "dpkg --get-selections"
[18:22] <AnCo> flx : No, create list of packages for easy restore from net... But I'll look into "aptoncd" ... sounded neat
[18:22] <eqisow1> PaperTiger: gksu gparted
[18:22] <bromic94> ah gparted is fun
[18:23] <[flx]> anco: sudo dpkg-scanpackages debs /dev/null |gzip >debs/Packages.gz i did this,it's used to make a local source :)

[18:24] <eqisow1> papertiger: what are you actually trying to do? If the drive is mounted you have to unmount it first, which means you can't do anything to the drive you're running from
[18:24] <ottertoast> anyone know which packages to remove to get rid of x/gnome/gui, etc
[18:24] <eqisow1> PaperTiger, but you should be able to right click unmount

[18:35] <Hovefirse> Hiya folks. An odd problem: I use Intrepid + Firefox. When I go to a homepage with a Java applet on it with account A, everything is fine and dandy. When I visit the same site using account B, the system freezes! Pulling the plug is the only thing that works. I have no idea where to start troubleshooting or repairing...any suggestions?
[18:35] <evilGUI> josh-l: Use aptitude, it does a better job of cleaning up.
[18:35] <LjL> josh-l: just keep in mind that /var/log/dpkg.log logs the recently installed packages
[18:35] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: Just gave my box the three fingered salute and nope, the themes are still broken.
[18:36] <josh-l> awesome thanks all

[18:36] <thewrath> arvind_khadri: that does nto work
[18:36] <macman> Tryfon, type ls -l  /home/tryfonas/generations.txt
[18:36] <Tryfon> macman: i got some characters...
[18:36] <LjL> !checkinstall > josh-l    (josh-l, see the private message from ubottu)
[18:36] <BlackBeast> i have ubuntu 7.10. but i need the actualization.. how can i get it?
[18:36] <thewrath> arvind_khadri: it comes with a makefile and it is raelly confusing
[18:36] <JMFTheVCI> evliGUI: thanks. I did some google but there were old (2007) posts that did not help
[18:36] <LjL> !upgrade > BlackBeast    (BlackBeast, see the private message from ubottu)
[18:36] <kratos> has any one fixed the 4 separate wallpaper issue for 8.10 using compiz
[18:36] <Tryfon> macman: i got some characters
[18:37] <arvind_khadri> thewrath, are you trying to build?
[18:37] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Try sudo aptitude install human-theme human-icon-theme
[18:37] <Tryfon> macman: is that what am i suppose to get with cat?
[18:37] <thewrath> http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php i have downloaded that arvind_khadri
[18:37] <macman> no Tryfon unless you put it there
[18:37] <thewrath> after that i am raelly confused
[18:37] <BlackBeast> LjL: thanks, but i have a problem. i can't use internet
[18:37] <thewrath> i ahve got the x64 and the patch
[18:37] <macman> Tryfon, something happend and the format got messed up
[18:38] <thewrath> so i have the updated driver and the patch
[18:38] <thewrath> i need to deal with the updated driver first
[18:38] <BlackBeast> !upgrade
[18:38] <LjL> BlackBeast: then upgrading won't be very easy at all.
[18:38] <Tryfon> macman : how do i fix this?
[18:38] <josh-l> okay another question, can i set a different browser (no konqueror) as default for all other programs ? or do i need to set it per program kind of thing?
[18:38] <macman> Tryfon, anything happen to that file since it has been on your home directory ?
[18:38] <BlackBeast> LjL it's for a laptop
[18:38] <macman> Tryfon, whats is suppose to be in the txt file ?
[18:38] <LjL> BlackBeast: alright, but i really don't know how to properly upgrade without an Internet connection
[18:38] <thewrath> hold on let me try seomthing arvind_khadri
[18:38] <heath|work> what's the easiest way to get all the apps reinstalled onto a new laptop?  Can I dump the list and apt-get all of them?
[18:39] <arvind_khadri> thewrath, sure :)
[18:39] <BlackBeast> thaks LjL
[18:39] <Tryfon> macman: i am programming in c++ and that file is connected with an ofstream so....... i am just basically openning it and writing some stuff in:)
[18:39] <Tryfon> with  the program i designed
[18:39] <Tryfon> hence the program is accessing it  and writing in it not me
[18:39] <LjL> !cloning > heath|work    (heath|work, see the private message from ubottu)
[18:40] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: I did a re-install of those packages with package manager and they are still broken.
[18:40] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Also could I get the output of sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop? post it here http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and give me the link.
[18:40] <macman> Tryfon, i don't know if you can fix it .. you probably have to ask some else in here .. but when a txt file opens in jibberish it means something got messed up when you saved it .. or you saved it and saved it in another format
[18:40] <macman> sorry
[18:40] <JMFTheVCI>  term
[18:40] <macman> Tryfon, can you do a screenshot ?
[18:41] <Tryfon> yes but where to put the screenshot?
[18:41] <heath|work> LjL, thanks
[18:41] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: http://paste.ubuntu.com/136189/
[18:41] <Tryfon> send it to u through here?
[18:41] <Tryfon> macman
[18:42] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: You should go ahead and run sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get autoremove
[18:43] <thewrath> arvind_khadri: i am following these instructions http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt
[18:43] <thewrath> i am to this part: On the target machine, and cd'ed to the directory that contains the Makefile (fragment)
[18:43] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: I'm not seeing any broken packages, did you install any theme engines?
[18:43] <thewrath> it gives me errors when i run these two commands
[18:43] <arvind_khadri> thewrath, use pastebin to paste :)
[18:43] <macman> Tryfon, tinypic
[18:44] <josh-l> okay another question, can i set a different browser (no konqueror) as default for all other programs ? or do i need to set it per program kind of thing?
[18:44] <JMFTheVCI> No. not that I know of. I just downloaded some themes from dnome-look.org and then used appearance, install etc.
[18:44] <thewrath> ok
[18:44] <Tryfon> erm macman whats that?:P
[18:44] <JMFTheVCI> Right, I have run the two cleanups
[18:44] <macman> Tryfon, http://tinypic.com/ it ask you to located the picture and what name .. click upload
[18:44] <macman> your uploading your pic so we can see it
[18:45] <Tryfon> macman u want the output in the terminal or the error f the file?

[18:45] <Iron-Bishop> ok thxbai
[18:46] <macman> Tryfon, the only thing you can do is try to rename the file to whatever extension will work
[18:47] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI. I can see the Human theme and the Human-clearlooks theme. When I select Human-Clearlooks I get a warning triangle pop-up telling me that it will nto work correctly as the Human theme is installed.  Definitely not the original human theme.
[18:47] <Tryfon> yeah but i want it in txt
[18:47] <macman> aw
[18:48] <macman> yea
[18:48] <kristian_> Hey! I've been trying to solve this problem for 2 days now, but still no luck! I'm having problems with burning cd/dvd in Ubuntu on a laptop (non-motorized tray). I have written the full explaination here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/136191/ - with log + screenshot.  Please have a look, and see if you guys can help me out with this one! Thanks! :-)

[18:49] <Tryfon> but i have another document macman which am copying from through my program it works just fine
[18:49] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Run sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-gdm-themes && sudo apt-get install buntu-gdm-themes
[18:49] <heath|work> LjL, anyway to tx the key-rings of added sources?
[18:49] <macman> so that file is probably corrupt Tryfon
[18:49] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gdm-themes* sorry typo.
[18:50] <LjL> !gpgerr | heath|work
[18:50] <clancy> hi
[18:50] <thewrath> arvind_khadri: if i am correct i have to run the rmmod commands

[18:50] <rar_> i am seeing errors from my external usb drive 'Add. Sense .. no Sense [current]' etc.. how to fix it? is there a update?
[18:50] <thewrath> then modprobe ieee80211_crypt_tkip
[18:50] <thewrath> then modprobe ieee80211_crypt_tkip then insmod <path>/wl.ko
[18:50] <arvind_khadri> thewrath, what does this return??
[18:51] <thewrath> when i run insmod wl.ko i get an error like permission denied

[18:52] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: This also uninstalled ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-artwork. I am re-installing those. then I will restart x
[18:52] <|PaperTiger|> Question - using the Windows disk to do a repair on the OS will not lose any data, will it?
[18:52] <jean_> hello i'm french could I have some help please ?
[18:52] <heath|work> LjL, one last question, can I just tar my entire home dir and put it over top the fresh install?  Will that keep all my settings?
[18:52] <macman> don't know what to do Tryfon
[18:52] <arvind_khadri> |PaperTiger|, no
[18:53] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Alright, if this doesn't work I would guess it would be a GNOME setting misconfiguration.
[18:53] <Tryfon> ok
[18:53] <arvind_khadri> jean_, ask in english :)
[18:53] <rashed2020> How do I specify which IP a client is allowed to SSH from?

[18:53] <jean_> I've got a problem with my screen resolution..
[18:53] <heath|work> LjL, thanks for the help
[18:53] <|PaperTiger|> arvind_khadri: Thanks

[18:53] <arvind_khadri> jean_, expalin your problem in one line
[18:53] <jean_> I want to be in 1440x900 but i'm in 640*320
[18:54] <heath|work> What about just clonzilla'ing the entire thing?
[18:54] <arvind_khadri> thewrath, use sudo when you get permission denied, are the makes working fine?
[18:54] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: I have done the reinstall. back in a mo.
[18:54] <thewrath> makes are workign fine
[18:54] <thewrath> i am to the last step

[18:57] <Guest90643> hi
[18:57] <sebsebseb> Guest90643: hi
[18:57] <Guest90643> can i help?
[18:57] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Let me do a bit more research.
[18:57] <kristian_> Awesome! Check this out: http://paste.ubuntu.com/136191/ ... Thanks! ;-)
[18:57] <FoolsRun> I have a question I think about DNS:  is it possible to set something up so that when I visit mysite.com from inside my network, the request goes over the local network, and over the internet if I'm outside my network?
[18:58] <arvind_khadri> thewrath, do rmmods and then do the insmod
[18:58] <Brianxxx> !list
[18:58] <Brianxxx> Hello
[18:59] <Guest90643> sorry that is abit above my head
[18:59] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Where did you install the themes you downloaded?
[18:59] <faeryan> kristian_: Earlier today I burned a dvd with Dvd+rw-tools. It didn't eject the drive before it was done.
[19:00] <sebsebseb> Guest90643: ha ha,  yeah I  woudn't except a helper to have a Guest name, as a result your either here to troll, or you want help with something yourself
[19:00] <Guest90643> i don't think that it is surpposed to eject the drive before it has finish burning
[19:00] <dan457> lol
[19:00] <JMFTheVCI>  I downloaded the tar.gz files and then used the Install option on System > Preferences > Appearance > Theme
[19:00] <thewrath> arvind_khadri: i get the same error: insmod: error inserting 'wl.ko': -1 File exists
[19:00] <thewrath> after doing that
[19:01] <sebsebseb> Guest90643: depends on your CD burner, some will  eject after burning and then do a check of the CD.
[19:01] <Guest90643> right
[19:01] <dan457> if verify is on yes
[19:01] <josh-l> okay another question, can i set a different browser (no konqueror) as default for all other programs ? or do i need to set it per program kind of thing?
[19:01] <sebsebseb> Guest90643: also it's  good idea to md5sum the ISO before burning
[19:01] <sebsebseb> !md5sum
[19:01] <arvind_khadri>  modprobe ieee80211_crypt_tkip wht does it return ?? thewrath
[19:02] <LjL> josh-l: isn't that in the "Default applications" control panel?
[19:02] <thewrath> when i ran that nothing
[19:02] <sebsebseb> josh-l: Konqueror is the default in Kubuntu sure, but in Ubuntu it would be FIrefox
[19:03] <arvind_khadri> thewrath, are you sure you have the correct tar ball?
[19:03] <thewrath>  yes
[19:03] <josh-l> LjL I thought so but its not working just entering "firefox" in the available location
[19:03] <thewrath> let me restart quick
[19:03] <thewrath> its yelling at me ansywas to do that
[19:03] <thewrath> brb
[19:03] <josh-l> sebsebseb: right but I want to change it from konqueror to firefox... kubuntu
[19:03] <beto> Hello all. I want to build a Ubuntu based VNC thin client network. I would like the clients to boot via PXE to a environment where a VNC client can be executed. Also each client should have its own desktop (session) in the server. Can anyone give me some hints? Thanks
[19:04] <saxs> Hi all. I need some help I have some problems with unresolved package dependencies using synaptic. I intalled WINE time ago and unistalled it. When I wanted to install the last version again through Add remove programs or using synaptic it gives me an error of unresolved package dependencies. I investigated in the Net and nothing. I only found a dependency with the package binfmt-support and I have a lower version installed in my h
[19:04] <sebsebseb> josh-l: ok so in the Firefox settings,  set it as the default browser
[19:04] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: run cd /usr/share/themes && ls and give me the output.
[19:04] <thewrath> i got the 64 bit tarbell that is what i am running arvind_khadri
[19:04] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[19:05] <arvind_khadri> thewrath, ok , after modprobe, do the insmod with the correct path, sudo insmod <path>/<filename>
[19:05] <sebsebseb> saxs: ok first of all  to make sure you always got the latest wine add the  Ubuntu repo from winehq.  http://www.winehq.org
[19:05] <saxs> If anyone can help pvt me pls
[19:05] <kristian_> faeryan : hmm, thanks, will check it out.
[19:05] <saxs> yes I downloaded the debian from wiinehq too
[19:05] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: http://paste.ubuntu.com/136195/
[19:05] <sebsebseb> saxs: I don't see the need to private about your issue,  this channel is not that busy at the moment
[19:05] <sebsebseb> saxs: Debian hummmmmm you want the Ubuntu version
[19:06] <sebsebseb> saxs: you are on Ubuntu, not Debian right?
[19:06] <saxs> yes
[19:06] <saxs> hardy
[19:06] <sebsebseb> saxs: yes  add the winehq repo for  Wine, and then sudo apt-get install it.  make sure your other wine is gone. sudo apt-get purge wine  will do that
[19:06] <sebsebseb> saxs: and it would leave the .wine folder probably as a hidden folder in home.
[19:06] <sebsebseb> saxs:  by the sounds of it also your package manager is broken?
[19:07] <saxs> ok trying it... tnx sebsebseb
[19:07] <sebsebseb> saxs: also what kind of stuff do you want to run in Wine?  you should use  native Linux programs most/all of the time :)
[19:08] <Frxstrem> !iso
[19:08] <saxs> this is the terminal output: "E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?"
[19:09] <sebsebseb> saxs: you can't have Synaptic or the cut down version add/remove open at the same time, that your trying to install stuff from the terminal
[19:09] <sebsebseb> saxs: the GUI stuff is just a GUI for apt-get
[19:09] <saxs> humm tnx for that... geez I'm really new to this :)
[19:10] <BellinXFelon> can someone help me i am trying to install xubuntu 8.10 on a laptop and the installation screen and everything works fine then it loads this thing called busy box and has a variety of different commands to enter, im not sure where to go from here?
[19:11] <sebsebseb> saxs: yeah thought so, as a result you probably don't reolize  that Desktop Linux wasn't meant to be like  Windows in the first place,  because they are an alternative to Unix.   also this kind of software is about freedom,  source code being availalbe to the general public, so that programmers from all over the world can make the programs better.   know about this stuff no?
[19:11] <sebsebseb> saxs: also ideally you should run programs that were made for  Linux, but sometimes there  may not be something good enough, and so yeah Wine
[19:11] <saxs> done... but it keeps the problems with the conflicting packages... I can't install Wine again
[19:12] <arvind_khadri> BellinXFelon, try using safe graphics mode
[19:12] <sebsebseb> saxs: ok  try installing anything from the terminal.  and pastebin the output
[19:12] <BellinXFelon> arvind_khadri, thank you
[19:12] <sebsebseb> !pastebin |  saxs
[19:12] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: This is the last thing I would try besides scraping your GNOME config files, sudo mv /usr/share/themes/themes themes.old && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[19:12] <kaista> hi anyone know why my keyboard and mouse fail on login (ubuntu latest ver) sony vaio laptop i can pull up a terminal with alt f1 and work from there but no mouse or keyboard in x/login screen
[19:12] <arvind_khadri> BellinXFelon, np
[19:13] <saxs> tnx ubottu I'll use it
[19:13] <daniel-vlc> .
[19:13] <o0Chris> kaista: #ubuntu+1
[19:13] <HammerHead66> kaista: tap on the keyboard when it boots up and it will see it ok
[19:13] <sebsebseb> saxs: and  you didn't ask for it, but if you see above,  I started trying to educate you a tiny bit in what  Desktop Linux is about,  so you don't  start trying to run loads of Windows programs in Wine :D.   and nah I triggered the bot to put that
[19:13] <kaista> HammerHead66 tried it :/
[19:14] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: In the human directory under /usr/share/themes I notice that after an install not all the files are updated. there is a cursor.theme file and an index.theme file which are not being changed. Is this significant?
[19:14] <HammerHead66> kaista: is the Num Lock light on?
[19:14] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: If you wish to try reseting GNOME it will remove all of your custom settings, *DOT NOT RUN UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR GNOME SETTINGS WIPED*     rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity
[19:14] <sebsebseb> saxs: if people  are going to use this kind of software, then ideally they should have a general idea, about what this kind of software is about,
[19:15] <sebsebseb> !freedom
[19:15] <sebsebseb> !unix
[19:15] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: After that I'm out of ideas, sorry =(

[19:15] <ZoOl007> hello all - I'm looking for information on corporate gnome/ubuntu deployments. I need info on prestaging user environments, automated installations. Does anyone over here has users on linux on an ad domain? Can someone point me to a correct channel? thx
[19:16] <sebsebseb> ZoOl007: oh Active Direcotry domain?
[19:16] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: No, everything should be removed, if you want run sudo rm -r on the folders.
[19:16] <ZoOl007> indeed
[19:16] <HammerHead66> kaista: u there?
[19:16] <kaista> yup
[19:16] <kaista> soz
[19:16] <sebsebseb> ZoOl007: sure Windows server and Linux servers could work together.  ,but Windows server hum I woudn't use that :)
[19:16] <kaista> HammerHead66 , tried it
[19:17] <HammerHead66> kaista: is the Num Lock light on when you boot up?
[19:17] <kaista> HammerHead66, not sure when i boot, i have tried swapping tho
[19:17] <sebsebseb> ZoOl007: what you want to know is not distro specific,  so going to this channel would make sense #linux
[19:17] <ZoOl007> :) thank you, I'll give it a go...
[19:17] <HammerHead66> keep tapping til the light stays on if it goes off turn it on again
[19:18] <sebsebseb> saxs: you still haven't pastebinned the output of the terminal
[19:18] <kaista> HammerHead66, nice ill try in a little while.. if your still on ill let you know what happened
[19:18] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: That's weird. I did the mv to backup the old themes and then re-installed the human themes. I now see both sets of themes in System> Preferences > Appearance.
[19:18] <databridge> is there a tool for finding double files?
[19:18] <hill_> who should i ask for help around here? ;p

[19:20] <kaista> HammerHead66, this a common thing?
[19:20] <Mr_Cheese> what program can i use on ubuntu, to repartition my hdd without disrupting my current install? I have full disk used for linux, then the last 1gb used for swap, i want to repartition free space into a new partition
[19:20] <Mr_Cheese> arvind_khadri, to the !justask command
[19:20] <HammerHead66> yeah
[19:20] <hill_> !ask how do i connect to a windows vista pc on the network with samba, it says failed to retrieve share list from server?
[19:20] <kaista> HammerHead66, i checked my xf86config had no mention of keyboard?!?
[19:20] <codazoda> Hi.  I have two monitors.  For a while, somehow, I accidentally got my icons on only my "center" (or right) monitor.  After a reboot, they are back to both sides, but I preferred it that way.  Can anyone tell me how to set the area where icons appear on the desktop?
[19:20] <kaista> is it auto?
[19:20] <fuks> sort: stray character in field spec: invalid field specification `3gpg'
[19:20] <fuks> arvind_khadri: sort: stray character in field spec: invalid field specification `3gpg'
[19:20] <fuks> :<
[19:21] <Voxicles> Is there a way to set this to run at startup http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m231b7e1  ?
[19:21] <arvind_khadri> Mr_Cheese, gparted
[19:21] <fearful> Voxicles, make it a script and put it in /etc/init.d it will load on startup
[19:22] <arvind_khadri> gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys (KEYS)" to get the keys, then "gpg --export -a (KEYS) | sudo apt-key add -  fuks
[19:22] <fuks> arvind_khadri: sort: stray character in field spec: invalid field specification `3gpg'
[19:22] <Mr_Cheese> arvind_khadri, i tried that but it wont let me resize my ext3 partition
[19:22] <fuks> how add it?:<
[19:22] <fuks> ok
[19:22] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: After running that and reapplying the themes what happens?
[19:22] <arvind_khadri> Mr_Cheese, to resize a partition it should not be mounted use a gparted live cd
[19:22] <invisibleninja> any good domain registrar/host? I was hosted with Dreamhost, but since some days my server is constantly 500ing, and just now they made me pay $20 for a domain name that they didn't even register. Really pissed!
[19:22] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: Did the remove and the .old go.
[19:22] <JMFTheVCI> I will try another re-install.
[19:23] <fearful> Mr_Cheese, it can't be mounted meaning if its a partition you have to do it through the livecd
[19:23] <Voxicles> not quite sure how to make it a script lol
[19:23] <Mr_Cheese> arvind_khadri, oh ok, yeah thats why i was asking since this is my only OS on it right now... so do i use ubuntu live cd and run gparted then?
[19:23] <psychic> can any one tell mea program to convert videos to mp3 on xubuntu
[19:23] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: This is truly a very odd problem.
[19:23] <fearful> Voxicles, you should learn the basics of bash scripting, its useful
[19:23] <arvind_khadri> Mr_Cheese, you can find the gparted live cd only :)
[19:23] <Mr_Cheese> fearful, yeah i was just asking because in windows you can do the changes you want and it will just partition on next reboot
[19:23] <Mr_Cheese> arvind_khadri, ok thx
[19:23] <fearful> Mr_Cheese, yea on linux it has to be unmounted :\
[19:24] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: I will restart x again
[19:24] <maximumbob> #opencog
[19:24] <Voxicles> indeed, I should.  Just trying to get everything running smoothly
[19:24] <codazoda> How do you change the area where icons appear on the gnome desktop?
[19:24] <fearful> arvind_khadri, thats not true, sudo apt-get install gparted will get you gparted
[19:24] <metalfan_> hi
[19:24] <Mr_Cheese> fearful, he was talking about the gparted live cd to boot to
[19:24] <arvind_khadri> Mr_Cheese, as on the boot the partitions arent mounted
[19:24] <Mr_Cheese> arvind_khadri, right i was thinking linux would have a similar program to make it easier to do re-partitions
[19:25] <arvind_khadri> fearful, he wants to edit the root partition, you cant edit it while its mounted
[19:25] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Any luck?
[19:25] <fearful> arvind_khadri, I know I told him this I thought you just said that gparted was only avaliable on LiveCD
[19:25] <fearful> arvind_khadri, my mistake.
[19:25] <arvind_khadri> fearful, no :)
[19:26] <metalfan_> im currently running archlinux and would like to take a look at ubuntu, i found this with google:   https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/linux-upgrade.html       the guide lists dpkg as "standard linux tool" which is of course not the case...do i need something else besides dpkg on a non debian system to install ubuntu this way?
[19:26] <arvind_khadri> fearful, its okkkkkk
[19:26] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: no. I am reluctant to hose all the .xxx files in my home dir. Is there a particular file that records desktop settings?
[19:26] <Tryfon> hi guys am having trouble with an ofstream... when the program writes on the file the following error occurs in the file(text file) : Could not open the file /home/tryfonas/generations.txt using the Unicode (UTF-8) character coding.
[19:26] <arvind_khadri> Mr_Cheese, aah , need to be thought upon
[19:26] <Mr_Cheese> arvind_khadri, maybe in jaunty :)
[19:26] <clancy> is it "better" for the hardware to always use the lastest kernels?
[19:26] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Yes, run this rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity, it will reset everything to defaults.
[19:26] <arvind_khadri> Mr_Cheese, no, gprated should implement it :)
[19:27] <Mr_Cheese> arvind_khadri, well lets talk to those guys then :p
[19:27] <arvind_khadri> clancy, if your hardware is working with the present one, then no need
[19:27] <psychic> sorry if everyones busy dont mean to seem impatient  just wondering if there is an xubuntu friendly program to convert  mp4to mp3
[19:27] <arvind_khadri> Mr_Cheese, :) sure
[19:28] <codazoda> Does anyone know what you might call the area on your desktop where icons are allowed to be positioned?  Where they snap back to?
[19:28] <clancy> ok
[19:28] <Mr_Cheese> psychic, mp4 is a video file, mp3 is an audio file, so you want to convert video to audio?
[19:28] <NeoDragon> hi
[19:28] <psychic> i had one for windows maybe a means of seperating the two?
[19:28] <JEEBcz> Mr_Cheese, don't forget that the .mp4 files are just marked by their container
[19:28] <arvind_khadri> !hi | NeoDragon
[19:28] <clancy> when my hardware won't be compatible with the next ubuntu jaunty kernel, can i always use the intrepid kernel in the future?
[19:28] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: You might also try removing everything in ~/.themes/
[19:28] <JEEBcz> So basically they're probably AAC in MPEG-4 Part 14 >_>
[19:29] <Mr_Cheese> JEEBcz, ok well if he wants to convert mp4 audio to mp3 audio, lots of programs can do that
[19:29] <sarmisak> hi all
[19:29] <JEEBcz> Mr_Cheese, yup
[19:29] <metalfan_> codazoda, desktop
[19:29] <Mr_Cheese> audacity
[19:29] <psychic> for xubuntu?
[19:29] <NeoDragon> I installed hardy on my father-in-law's PC yesterday and set it up to dual boot windows xp, and now when it boots all you see on the screen is an message that says "ERROR 21" can any one tell me what that means?
[19:29] <JEEBcz> or ffmpeg etc. etc.
[19:29] <safruhani> hi sarmisak :)
[19:29] <lesshaste> hi.. I am trying to get sound to work for the first
[19:29] <lesshaste> time
[19:29] <JEEBcz> he could even use mplayer to play and then pipe into neroaacenc
[19:29] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: FIXED!!! I went into the customise option for the theme and removed the "Controlls" Human entry. I then re-installed the Human theme and all is back to norm.
[19:29] <lesshaste> how can I test it?
[19:29] <Mr_Cheese> psychic, yes for xubuntu, try audacity
[19:29] <dan457> transcode is command line, there are a varity of front end programs that will use it.
[19:30] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: Sweet =)
[19:30] <arvind_khadri> clancy, how do you know its not compatible? kernels are made sure to have reverse comptability
[19:30] <psychic> ok thanks
[19:30] <JEEBcz> And again I forgot what was first and what was second >_> Btw, was audacity ok with aac source?
[19:30] <clancy> arvind_khadri, so a piece of hardware will always be supported by the kernel?
[19:31] <dan457> Audacity supports most formats out there.
[19:31] <arvind_khadri> clancy, afaik yes
 I installed hardy on my father-in-law's PC yesterday and set it up to dual boot windows xp, and now when it boots all you see on the screen is an message that says "ERROR 21" can any one tell me what that means?
[19:31] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: Clearly whatever the Contolls item for a theme does it is separate for the actual theme installed. It does have a big impact when something goes wrong.
[19:31] <clancy> ok i see, i thought they end the support one day that the kernel won't be bigger and bigger
[19:31] <clancy> but...the hard disks also are bigger and bigger
[19:32] <Mr_Cheese> i saw 1tb external drive, for $100 :O
[19:32] <JMFTheVCI> evilGUI: Thanks for all the suggestions.
[19:32] <arvind_khadri> clancy, it does :) but thats not a issue, they even try to make the code smaller :P
[19:32] <evilGUI> JMFTheVCI: no problem.
[19:32] <NeoDragon> I installed hardy on my father-in-law's PC yesterday and set it up to dual boot windows xp, and now when it boots all you see on the screen is an message that says "ERROR 21" can any one tell me what that means?
[19:32] <Mr_Cheese> hard drive failure?
[19:32] <HammerHead66> NeoDragon:     http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2567919 this tells you about error 21
[19:32] <JEEBcz> dan457, yeah - I know it does, I just never really tried it with aac - although if it's based on libavcodec I can understand if it can decode a lot of stuff ;)
[19:32] <arvind_khadri> !grub | NeoDragon
[19:32] <clancy> arvind_khadri, ok thank you :)
[19:33] <arvind_khadri> clancy, np
[19:33] <dan457> NeoDragon, Error 21 means "Can not find disk"
[19:33] <dan457> Grub error.
[19:33] <Mr_Cheese> grubs are disgusting little creatures
[19:33] <Mr_Cheese> OT sorry
[19:33] <dan457> error 21 is usualy caused by bad drive settings in your bios.
[19:34] <NeoDragon> ok thanks guys I think I can handle it now that I know what the problem might be
[19:35] <NeoDragon> thanks again

[19:44] <Quazar> Hi all, im getting a Dell Vostro with a Core 2 DUO 2.80GHz - My question is would it be wise to install the 64bit version over the 32bit version?
[19:44] <arvind_khadri> Quazar, yes
[19:45] <rebel_> I have a problem with screen resolution, keeps changing to 800x600 every time I log in...
[19:45] <pasteeater> Quazar: depends on what you're doing. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=765428
[19:45] <rebel_> I'm using nvidia driver
[19:45] <pasteeater> Quazar: personally i would since I do a lot of video encoding
[19:45] <pseubodot> can I upgrade 7.04 to 8.04 via CD?
[19:45] <oCean_> Quazar: probably not
[19:45] <arvind_khadri> rebel_, run nvidia-xconfig as root
[19:45] <Quazar> oCean_, what do you mean?
[19:46] <Winol> sarmisak, it works under WinXP :/ not on ubuntu ..; it's supposed to be the opposite :)
[19:46] <FireHopper> ugh, too much work atm.  maybe I can get the ethernet working
[19:46] <_DEL> arvind_khadri, sry abt that. http://paste.ubuntu.com/136214/
[19:46] <rebel_> arvind_khadri: I tried that.. same thing
[19:47] <oCean_> Quazar: well, the link that pasteeater send you contains lots of info (pros/cons for 64bit) But in general - one would not really notice discernable differences (in speed, that is), Since 64bits binaries are not twice as fast as 'normal' 32bits
[19:47] <arvind_khadri> rebel_, make an entry in xorg.conf
[19:47] <Quazar> So there wouldnt really be a difference
[19:48] <Quazar> pasteeater said he uses 64bit for a lot of video stuff
[19:48] <MeXTuX> I switched from GNOME to Fluxbox and when I was using GNOME my keyboard layout was "es". But now the layout is "us" and don't know how to change it to "es" on Fluxbox. Does somebody know how to fix this?? :(

[19:57] <fearful> saxs, you can't remove them automatically by fixing them on the synaptic manager or apt-get?
[19:57] <sebsebseb> fearful: I think he tried that, and what makes things worse for us, his install and so terminal output goes in Spannish
[19:58] <sebsebseb> fearful: and he said no one in ubuntu-es could help
[19:58] <saxs> I tried but I can't on synaptic
[19:58] <saxs> don't know why
[19:58] <fearful> saxs, I can speak spanish perfectely, matter fact its my native language
[19:58] <maxb> saxs: At a guess, based on those errors, I'd suggest you might be trying to install the wrong version of WINE for your distribution

[19:59] <marek__> hi i have two coputers, one is on my desk at work - and it has access to ftp server, and i also have one in my home, it has a different IP and has no access for that specific server. How can i "tunnel" the connection between them? i already installed ssh server on my work PC
[20:00] <Sjord> It contains these files: http://rafb.net/p/GROEQG78.html
[20:00] <saxs> ok fearful open me a pvt when you're done... and tnx a lot!
[20:00] <josh-l> metalfan_: dpkg
[20:00] <metalfan_> josh-l, ok...just checking the obvious...cant help...sry
 saxs: At a guess, based on those errors, I'd suggest you might be trying to install the wrong version of WINE for your distribution
[20:00] <maxb> saxs: ^^ Does that guess sound possible?
[20:01] <tj83> marek__, can you be more specific as to what you want to accomplish? i use FTP, VNC, SSH, and PPTPD-VPN from work to home... might be able to help
[20:01] <voice5sur5> how to quite by force a fullscreen mode?
[20:01] <pinkpotato> How would I mount an AFP share?
[20:01] <maxb> josh-l: That sounds like a dependency version problem. How (with exact commands) did you install the problem app?
[20:01] <artemis> does any1 use tvtime ??
[20:02] <Sjord> Normally, GNOME packages have the GNOME-team under "Uploaders" in the debian/control file. Should I keep that?
[20:02] <marek__> tj83 any type of tunneling that is easy :)
[20:02] <marek__> i thought about vpn but i remember that one i used simple CLI for that
[20:02] <voice5sur5> how to quite by force a fullscreen mode?
[20:02] <artemis> why do i have blue screen when i start my tvtime ?
[20:02] <josh-l> maxb: exact command: "sudo dpkg -i rekonq.deb"
[20:02] <slops17> hey all
[20:02] <fearful> saxs, pm me
[20:02] <bunjee> tiagofalcao - thanx for the info - it's faster than..............
[20:03] <tj83> marek__ tunnel for what? tunnel would to me be described as a carrier for another service.. for example to tunnel VNC over SSH... your trying to access file shares? desktop?
[20:03] <vito_> ciao a tutti
[20:03] <josh-l> maxb: it was built on a jaunty system, i'm running intrepid
[20:03] <slops17> i am trying to install ubuntu server
[20:03] <vito_> hi
[20:03] <maxb> Sjord: #ubuntu-motu is a quieter channel where you can get help on producing packages for contributing to Ubuntu
[20:03] <maxb> josh-l: Then that is the problem.
[20:03] <josh-l> ah bummer
[20:03] <slops17> after the install has completed i get to a grub menu
[20:04] <tj83> marek__ is it the FTP you want to tunnel over ssh?
[20:04] <slops17> but cant do any thing
[20:04] <artemis> why do i have blue screen when i start my tvtime ?
[20:04] <marek__> tj83 i mean this: i need to upload soe files, and edit some scripts on a server, that is only accesible from y work, i would like to do it from my home with my other PC
[20:04]  * taec wishes he remembers how he got his sound working on this Vostro laptop before. argh.
[20:04] <vito_> i'm using jaunty. good distro. only a problem  i can't resolve. can i ask here?
[20:04] <marek__> i have ssh access from work
[20:04] <maxb> josh-l: Also, whoever built it, didn't get the packaging quite right, or dpkg would have indicated the unmet dependencies
[20:05] <tj83> marek__, then that needs to be configured in the work router to forward specific ports to your work machine. making access from home possible.
[20:05] <slops17> is there a better channel for support on my issue
[20:05] <josh-l> maxb: is some how maybe if i extract the package i can find out what the unmet dep is?
[20:05] <marek__> tj83 i addedd 22 port fowarding to that work PC before
[20:05] <marek__> i can access to it via ssh
[20:06] <vito_> i can't install serpentine
[20:06] <fearful> sebsebseb, CTPC?
[20:06] <marcel1607> vito_, why not
[20:06] <tj83> marek__, ok, so if you can ssh into your work PC from home, then you need to set up the same kind of forward for your server that you need to access... only cant use 22, will have to use another port... which is safer anyways
[20:06] <sebsebseb> fearful: yeah  whatever that is,  and it tells me what client your running
[20:06] <caimlas> does anyone know what this avahi is, and how I'm supposed to use/utilize it on a network? is it possible to centralize it (ie give a specific system authority) and have it replace, say, dns + dhcp services on the network?
[20:06] <vito_> it depends on python4-suite-xml
[20:07] <marek__> tj83 yup, i addedd 2000 port fowarding
[20:07] <fearful> sebsebseb, oh
[20:07] <vito_> wixh depends on python <2.6
[20:07] <Tryfon> hi guys . now here is my problem i did this humble  program called the game of life. it gets input from the input file and outputs the generations in the generation file(all files are .txt) but i get a problem in outputting .
[20:07] <josh-l> maxb: is some how maybe if i extract the package i can find out what the unmet dep is?
[20:07] <SteWieH> is tanyone know where I can find linux drivers for my linksys wireless card?
[20:07] <marcel1607> vito_, what do you do to install it? apt-get install?
[20:07] <Tryfon> and a screeshot of the error in the output file is here: http://i43.tinypic.com/16is9dc.png
[20:07] <vito_> yes
[20:08] <marcel1607> vito_, you can try apt-get update first to see if the problem is already fixed
[20:08] <dan457> marek__, sounds like it might be simpler to just install openvpn server on your work computer and use that to join your home computer to that network.
[20:08] <marcel1607> vito_, also try sudo aptitude install serpentine
[20:08] <vito_> i tried but it is not fixed
[20:08] <tj83> marek__, you forwarded it in the router in addition to the sshd : /etc/ssh/ssh_config ?
[20:08] <voice5sur5> HOW to quite fullscreen mode?
[20:08] <maxb> josh-l: The problem is almost certainly that Intrepid's libraries are too old to run something built on Jaunty. So you're not going to be able to fix this by installing something extra. You need to rebuild the package on Intrepid.
[20:09] <marek__> tj83 i dont know
[20:09] <vito_> in lanchpad they say there is a bug in python4-suite-xml
[20:09] <josh-l> maxb: ah ok, i'm no good at building packages
[20:09] <slops17> are there any server specailists in here
[20:09] <tj83> marek__, you will need to make the server "listen" for port 2000 in /etc/ssh/ssh_config file by uncommenting the line that has #port 22  to port 2000 (without #)
[20:09]  * taec kicks alsa and it's stupid muted devices
[20:09] <erUSUL> slops17: #ubuntu-server ?
[20:09] <slops17> thanks
[20:10] <marcel1607> vito_, so wait for the fix or use a different application
[20:10] <erikh> greetings; how do I configure a static route (additional to my gateway) with the network configuration in debian/ubuntu?
[20:10] <marek__> tj83 but i also would have to connect from my home to port 2000?
[20:10] <vito_> i tried to build this package from the source with no success.
[20:11] <afallenhope|work> !gpg
[20:11] <erikh> I'd prefer not to write an init.d script for this
[20:11] <tj83> marek__, yes of course... you would instead of "ssh user@ip" it will be "ssh user@ip::2000"
[20:11] <Nasra> sebsebseb: hello...
[20:11] <sebsebseb> Nasra: hi
[20:11] <marek__> ok what next tj83?
[20:11] <Nasra> hi where you  been?
[20:11] <vito_> it is possible to do so?
[20:11] <marcel1607> vito_, no
[20:11] <Nasra> everything ok
[20:11] <daftykins> erikh, "route -n" to view on command line, then "route add gw x.x.x.x y.y.y.y" where x= network address IP and y = subnet
[20:11] <marcel1607> vito_, the problem is python, so wait for the fix there
[20:11] <vito_> ok
[20:11] <sebsebseb> Nasra: oh my Pidgin is closed
[20:11] <marcel1607> vito_, the bug has to be fixed, its not a packaging problem
[20:12] <vito_> thank  you
[20:12] <tj83> marek__, thats it... you should be able to ssh to either your desktop box with port 22 or the server with port 2000
[20:12] <Nasra> no problem...
[20:12] <erikh> daftykins: a) it's not my gateway, and b) I'd like to do it in /etc/network so it establishes it on start
[20:12] <Nasra> that is okay....
[20:12] <Joker_-_> I have added a line in rc.local (2 lines if you count the "pause 20") but it's not executing at boot. If I run the command myself it runs fine... why?
[20:12] <erikh> I know how to use `route`
[20:12] <daftykins> ah ok erikh
[20:12] <ubuntunoob> hi. can anyone confirm that usb wifi adapters do not work with any current linux kernel?
[20:12] <sebsebseb> Nasra:  this is all off topic,  pm is better :D well I am about to be on Pidgin again
[20:12] <_DEL> can someone help me with gparted?
[20:12] <Nasra> sebsebseb: what is the name of that website for linux?
[20:12] <erUSUL> !ask | _DEL
[20:12] <sebsebseb> Nasra: which website?
[20:12] <marcel1607> ubuntunoob, no cant confirm that
[20:12] <Nasra> camping one
[20:13] <sebsebseb> Nasra: camping???????
[20:13] <Nasra> oh no rember..no problem
[20:13] <Nasra> we talk later
[20:13] <ubuntunoob> marcel1607, i see. that's what i was told on another channel.
[20:13] <tj83> marek__, i have to run for a moment /join #seaphor if you dont have success brb
[20:13] <Joker_-_> ubuntunoob: my wifi connector does WORK with all the kernels I tryed
[20:13] <riwa> I'm having trouble with my console. It's like the whole screen is "bouncing" constantly, which makes it almost impossible to do anything but trivial work on it. What bugs me is that it actually jumps the very boot (when the bios checks memory etc). What could cause this?
[20:13] <marcel1607> ubuntunoob, linux kernel has support for usb wifi, its maybe not in the default kernel config
[20:13] <Nasra> I willl be here
[20:13] <ubuntunoob> marcel1607, i'm trying to get a belkin wireless g+ mimo adapter to work with intrepid
[20:13] <marek__> ssh: Could not resolve hostname 195.254.*.*::2000: Name or service not known tj83
[20:13] <sebsebseb> Nasra: maybe someone here knows about asterisk  on Ubuntu
[20:13] <marcel1607> ubuntunoob, let me check, hold non
[20:14] <vito_> this is the only thing that went wrong with this distro. everything else works perectly for a alpha release!!"
[20:14] <Nasra> I think so
[20:14] <ubuntunoob> marcel1607, thanks
[20:14] <Joker_-_> I have added a line in rc.local (2 lines if you count the "pause 20") but it's not executing at boot. If I run the command myself it runs fine... Any hint?
[20:14] <erUSUL> ubuntunoob: find out which chip the usb wifi uses. "lsusb" may help
[20:14] <sebsebseb> Nasra: there was some guy I could email stuff to, but I didn't round to that
[20:14] <_DEL> gparted will not recognize my 16G SDCard anymore, last night it saw it as fat16 partition, but it couldnt delete or reformat it. dmesg | tail result is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/136226/
[20:14] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: which lines? are the rc.local executable?
[20:14] <ubuntunoob> erUSUL, it's meant to use rt73
[20:14] <voyagi> Is there anybody who knows any console based programs to transfer videos to an iPod?
[20:15] <marcel1607> ubuntunoob, usb wireless is supported, are you able to build your own kernel?
[20:15] <Nasra> sebsebseb: okay....I have decided gonna learn more linux before jumping into that application
[20:15] <erUSUL> ubuntunoob: do you get a wlan0 device ?
[20:15] <Nasra> sebsebseb: have to learn alot of commands
[20:15] <Drknezz> !kernel > ubuntunoob
[20:15] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: well, good point, I always "supposed" rc.local was executable. The line is a screened virtual machine.
[20:15] <ubuntunoob> erUSUL, I've tried using ndiswrapper with the rt73.inf file on my belkin CD, that didn't work, also tried the serialmonkey drivers, again didn't work.
[20:15] <space_cadet> whaddup mike
[20:15] <boscop> how do I find out which graphics card I have?
[20:15] <sebsebseb> Nasra: oh right
[20:15] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: yes, it is executable...
[20:15] <vito_> in the meantime i can use brasero. does it support  gapless audio cd?
[20:16] <erikh> boscop: lspci is generally the easiest way
[20:16] <Drknezz> boscop, lspci
[20:16] <boscop> thx
[20:16] <Drknezz> np
[20:16] <erUSUL> ubuntunoob: the driver comes with the default ubuntu install no need to play games with third party drivers
[20:16] <Nasra> sebsebseb: by a way of pastebin....if need be to ask questions....
[20:16] <erikh> boscop: lspci | grep -i video
[20:16] <Nasra> it's better
[20:16] <marcel1607> ubuntunoob, you can build your own kernel and select usb wireless support, maybe that will work
[20:17] <erUSUL> marcel1607: the support is already there in default ubuntu kernels.
[20:17] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/fd57aaf2
[20:17] <erUSUL> marcel1607: no need to compile anything
[20:17] <vito_> (i love serpentine mainly for this reason)
[20:17] <chubs> d
[20:17] <sebsebseb> Nasra: no you pastebin stuff that,  like terminal output, so you don't flood the channel with it
[20:17] <ubuntunoob> marcel1607, ah... that sounds great, i think it maybe what ubottu pm'd me... now that is all very difficult for me! ;)
[20:17] <space_cadet> whaddup chubs
[20:17] <marcel1607> erUSUL, there are experimental new drivers
[20:17] <boscop> erikh, this doesn't show anything
[20:17] <erUSUL> ubuntunoob: can you do « sudo modprobe rt73usb »
[20:17] <dan-ubuntu> anyone here using jaunty? im having problems of distortion in 2ch mode, so i need to use 6ch, even though i use stereo
[20:17] <ubuntunoob> erUSUL, that sounds better, :)
[20:17] <sebsebseb> dan-ubuntu: yes I am, but this is the wrong channel  you want #ubuntu+1
[20:18] <fearful> !jaunty | dan-ubuntu
[20:18] <vito_> or there is another app too make gapless audio cd?
[20:18] <chubs> yah
[20:18] <daftykins> have to admit erikh i have no idea how to specify a second gateway in the interfaces file
[20:18] <erikh> daftykins: no worries
[20:18] <erikh> I think our sysadmin found it
[20:18] <daftykins> i tried the man page and googling, nothing!
[20:18] <Nasra> sebsebseb: pm me when you available:     gonna to eat now
[20:18] <erikh> daftykins: thanks for trying though
[20:18] <ubuntunoob> erUSUL, i can, it shows the rt73 driver is present but wlan0 doesn't show doing a iwconfig (i think that's what i did)
[20:18] <erikh> daftykins: yeah, I checked all the manpages I could find
[20:18] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: rc.local is ran as "root" right?
[20:18] <sebsebseb> Nasra: ok well  I will be around later, but TV evening :)
[20:18] <erikh> I might just write an /etc/init.d/ script
[20:18] <daftykins> ah, no problem erikh  :)
[20:19] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: right
[20:19] <daftykins> good luck
[20:19] <boscop> how do I know if my gfx card supports compiz fusion?
[20:19] <ubuntunoob> erUSUL, only things that show are lo and something else... eth0 i think not sure
[20:19] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: then I dont see what th eproblem is
[20:19] <erikh> thanks :) I'll come back and mention it
[20:19] <erikh> once I find a solution that works.
[20:19] <Nasra> sebsebseb: okay :-
[20:19] <beawesomeinstead> does anyone know how adduser without Full Name, Office Phone and personal info prompts?
[20:19] <Drknezz> boscop, what card you have?
[20:19] <daftykins> sounds good! may come in handy for me in the future
[20:19] <erUSUL> ubuntunoob: iwconfig should tell if any interface has wirelless extensions
[20:19] <daftykins> boscop once your drivers are installed you can go to system -> preferences -> appearance -> "effects" tab and enable it
[20:19] <marcel1607> beawesomeinstead, why not supply that on the commandline
[20:19] <daftykins> "visual effects" tab sorry
[20:19] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: well scrreen is a interactive program... i mean it needs a tty ...
[20:20] <ubuntunoob> erUSUL, sorry, yes i'm not near the machine tonight unfortunately. i can't remember all the different commands to be fair! ;)
[20:20] <marcel1607> beawesomeinstead, like adduser dummy dummy or something
[20:20] <ubuntunoob> i sued a tutorial i found here i believe , let me try and find it...
[20:20] <beawesomeinstead> marcel1607: i still need password to be asked
[20:20] <froosch> Lasivian: Joker_-_
[20:20] <erUSUL> ubuntunoob: you should check the dmesg output when you load the module
[20:20] <boscop> daftykins, is this already compiz fusion?
[20:20] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: ah, what should I do then?
[20:20] <BiosElement> What's the variable for the currently logged in user for bash?
[20:20] <AntonioRS> Buenas
[20:20] <froosch> Lasivian: Joker_-_ uh sorry... feel like cat on the keyboard
[20:21] <Drknezz> BiosElement, whoami ?
[20:21] <daftykins> if you are running 8.10 or near to that version then yes, boscop - if you have turned it on
[20:21] <marcel1607> beawesomeinstead, what are you trying to do? adduser frank is fine
[20:21] <Drknezz> !spanish > AntonioRS
[20:21] <AntonioRS> ok
[20:21] <BiosElement> Drknezz: I've seen it used in tutorials before for easy copy/paste. Something like $username I thought. Can't seem to remember it.
[20:21] <boscop> yes, i'm running 8.10, and turned it on
[20:21] <Drknezz> BiosElement, bash script?
[20:22] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: from screen man page  -d -m   Start  screen  in "detached" mode. This creates a new session but doesn’t attach to it. This is useful for system startup scripts.
[20:22] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: wich is what I do...
[20:22] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/fd57aaf2
[20:22] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: so use "screen -d -m restofoptions"
[20:22] <boscop> i though I had to install it
[20:22] <BiosElement> drknezz: Well it worked just by pasting it into the console.
[20:22] <Huufarted> Anybody able to tell me where I place custom mouse cursors?
[20:22] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: thats what Im doing... screen -dmS vbox VBoxHeadless -startvm winxp -vrdp=off
[20:22] <Drknezz> BiosElement, why not just taking whoami's output to your own var?
[20:23] <BiosElement> Drknezz: Aight, Thanks.
[20:23] <Time`s_Witness> any idea why do sound tests fail (trigger an error) as i try to start them at system->preferences->sound ?
[20:23] <Drknezz> BiosElement, np
[20:24] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: then i dunno; maybe it needs to be -d -m -S and it chokes at -dmS ?? some programs are weird at parsing options
[20:24] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: would be strange as it works if I copy/paste the command in the terminal...
[20:24] <boscop> daftykins, some of the keys don't work
[20:24] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: well then i'm out of ideas...
[20:25] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: so am I
[20:25] <billbeau> Hello all
[20:25] <daftykins> keys boscop? you need to enable features. use system -> preferences -> compizconfig settings manager
[20:25] <billbeau> does anyone have any good ideas on how to get Jack to work in 8.10
[20:25] <marcel1607> jack who?
[20:25] <daftykins> boscop: or if that's too complex, "sudo apt-get install simple-ccsm" for most basic features
[20:25] <billbeau> jackd
[20:25] <Drknezz> billbeau. hacking is not the topic of this channel
[20:26] <Joker_-_> is there a debug output of rc.local, or how could I add one?
[20:26] <erUSUL> !studio | billbeau
[20:26] <Guest79817> Help!!!  Saturday my 8.10 started randomly capitalizing the first character of things I typed, including in command lines (OUCH) and search boxes (Annoying)  Has anyone heard why?
[20:26] <boscop> daftykins, under system -> prefs  there is no compizconfig settings manager. So I have to install it yet?
[20:26] <billbeau> thanks
[20:27] <erUSUL> billbeau: in #ubuntustudio would be people more knowledgeable about jack
[20:27] <daftykins> install the other package i mention and see how you get on boscop
[20:27] <Joker_-_> Guest79817: wow, strange
[20:27] <erikh> daftykins: here you go (2 lines)
[20:27] <erikh> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[20:27] <erikh> post-up route add -net <IP_ADDRESS>/24 gw <IP_ADDRESS> eth0
[20:28] <daftykins> ah magic, thanks erikh!
[20:28] <Joker_-_> Guest79817: Just giving wild guesses: any new corrector application? Any "filter" that might change/format what you type?
[20:28] <boscop> daftykins, thanks, it's working
[20:28] <Fern> Hey guys! I need a volenteer who can read Arabic
[20:29] <Guest79817> No new corrector applications or filters that I chose to install, it's quite a mystery to me.
[20:29] <Mr_Cheese> Fern, do you need help with ubuntu? that's what this channel is for...
[20:30] <Joker_-_> Guest79817: it does that in console aswell, out of X? or in terminal inside X only??
[20:30] <Time`s_Witness> i also can't send any sound in amsn, i get "20:28:54] An error occured when trying to record the sound : Could not gain access to /dev/dsp for writing." lol.    can i get any help on that please? :P
[20:31] <Fern> Mr_Cheese: I'm aware of that, but this is the largest channel that is likely to have people who can speak both English and Arabic.
[20:31] <Mr_Cheese> Fern, it's on your skin if you want to get in trouble, for asking OT questions...
[20:32] <Fern> I've found a strange sight on Google Earth in the desert and it looks like Arabic writing inscribed into the ground and I'm trying to find someone who might be able to read what it says...
[20:32] <spader3d> hi
[20:32] <spader3d> where do i get kernels for kubuntu?
[20:32] <Joker_-_> Fern: it says: "if you ask OT questions, ull get kicked".
[20:33] <erUSUL> spader3d: all the ones you need are in the repositories and probably already installed
[20:33] <Fern> Okay thanks guys. -_-
[20:33] <erUSUL> spader3d: what are you trying to "fix"
[20:33] <spader3d> i am trying to install something and get compile error
[20:33] <spader3d> what can i do?
[20:34] <Mutu> guys can anyone help with getting a new ipod shuffle to work with ubuntu?
[20:34] <Joker_-_> spader3d: either be more specific or get help from thoses who make that application
[20:34] <erUSUL> spader3d: what is "something"? a device driver? what is the exact error msg you get? (use pastebin)
[20:34] <erUSUL> !details | spader3d
[20:34] <erUSUL> !paste > spader3d

[20:36] <spader3d> i am not at the computer at the moment but i will get with the error messages as soon as get there
[20:36] <Joker_-_> spader3d: you should try "ssh"
[20:36] <emilien> There anyway to fix it with out windows ?
[20:38] <saxs> bye all and thanks for your help and charming support... especially to sebsebseb and fearful... you've been great guys.
[20:39] <nado> hi
[20:39] <hauke> hallo
[20:39] <Mutu> guys can anyone help with getting a new ipod shuffle to work with ubuntu?
[20:40] <Mr_Cheese> Mutu, try songbird
[20:40] <emilien> Can't mount usb get FAT: bogus number of reserved sectors
[20:40] <nado> can somebody tell me how to move the display output of xorg? if i set the right solution for my 720p LCD, the picture is quite a bit too much to the left and upper side
[20:40] <hauke> or try gtkpod

[20:46] <Cobra_Girl> good afternoon
[20:46] <keck> Hello I am new to linux and I know how to change my workgroup in samba however it says to hit shift then ":" to save and exit and this does not work can anyone help me
[20:46] <zash> keck: sounds like vim
[20:46] <zash> !vim
[20:46] <|REM|> is it possible to write a script so that i never have to run fsck manually in case of a bad shutdown?
[20:47] <Voxicles> afternoon folks.  Anyone around that knows virtual box well enough to tell me why when I go to install xp pro, I get this error http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m238490a2
[20:47] <keck> huh?
[20:47] <zash> keck: :wq is save-and-quit in vi and vim
[20:47] <adamw9678> I'm still having probs finding my usb devices on my XP VBOX VM?
[20:47] <zash> keck: what did you do
[20:47] <keck> I was in the terminal
[20:48] <Cobra_Girl> I just upgraded my monitor to a 20" widescreen 1600X900 60hz, but I can't get ubuntu to make the change
[20:48] <zash> keck: sudo vi (or vim) /etc/samba/smb.conf ?
[20:48] <imachine> shouldn't it just work?
[20:48] <adamw9678> None of the net articals seem to work
[20:48] <Cobra_Girl> any way a complete beginner can do this?
[20:48] <keck> ues
[20:48] <keck> yes
[20:48] <keck> that was it
[20:48] <maximumbob> bizzare. my xchat right-side user bar disappeared
[20:48] <Voxicles> Cobra_Girl: are you running ati or nvidia
[20:48] <Cobra_Girl> everything is stretched and squished
[20:48] <imachine> Cobra_Girl, plug it in, it's sorted.
[20:48] <Cobra_Girl> nvidia
[20:48] <imachine> ok
[20:49] <zash> keck: i recomend you replace vi/vim with nano, it is much simpler
[20:49] <keck> but then I couldn't save and exit
[20:49] <Voxicles> did you install the nvidia settings?
[20:49] <imachine> I guess you should remove the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[20:49] <imachine> or so
[20:49] <zash> keck: type <ESC> :q!
[20:49] <imachine> but I don't want to wreck havoc

[21:10] <irbdavid> google seems to suggest there is no better option than the default one.  Shame - video performance is not what it could be :(
[21:10] <HammerHead66> floatboat: GUI stands for Graphic User Interface.

[21:11] <Ginbuntu> pressing on up+left takes a screenshot of my desktop. does any one has that shortcut key? how do I remove it?
[21:11] <egc> ok, thanks
[21:11] <oCean_> fabio_: several lines back you could type "very well done" without problems.
[21:12] <klync> egc: if you want to keep it clean, you could always put them in a separate file and then "source ~/my-bash-functions"
[21:12] <HammerHead66> floatboat: if you are on the desktop go /system/Admin/System monitor
[21:12] <fabio_> that is because i have to tune it in the keyboard panel
[21:12] <egc> klync: yeah im actually trying to merge them right now
[21:12] <floatboat> HammerHead66: i think we're both confused
[21:12] <fabio_> now i have to slow down the keyboard
[21:12] <HammerHead66> floatboat: click tab "Resources"
[21:13] <floatboat> HammerHead66: i'm using openbox and i have terminal access
[21:13] <floatboat> HammerHead66: i just need the name of the panel
[21:13] <HammerHead66> ok then forget what I just said
[21:13] <mathieui> floatboat: which panel ?
[21:13] <floatboat> one that has cpu and network graphs, tray, dock, desktops
[21:13] <mathieui> gnome-panel ?
[21:13] <floatboat> like fbpanel, except with some damn network graphs
[21:14] <floatboat> mathieui: something more lightweight
[21:14] <mathieui> pypanel ?
[21:14] <fabio_> hall sicks
[21:14] <mathieui> xfce4-panel ?
[21:14] <fabio_> hall sucks*
[21:15] <fabio_> is there anything i can do to fi my keyboard ?

[21:20] <Pollywog> I am wondering if it is possible that I am getting unstable updates from hardy-updates and that is why I ask
[21:20] <HammerHead66> fabio_: on bounce keys check that box
[21:23] <fabio_> this is a mess
[21:23] <HammerHead66> fabio_: did it help?
[21:23] <fabio_> the only way is to set the accessibility option,
[21:24] <HammerHead66> fabio_: to what?

[21:27] <lyhana8> hi, does ubuntu have an equivalent of gentoo `revdep-rebuild` to remove unused packages ?
[21:27] <bromic94> let me know if you understand adamw9678
[21:27] <HammerHead66> fabio_: please tell me what all the settings are and what tab you are under, so I know whats going on. I'll get you throw it ok
[21:28] <lyhana8> buttons1: for the bin, try `which <apps-name>`
[21:28] <sobczyk> anyone got serial mouse working with jaunty?
[21:28] <Cobra_Girl> thanks so much for the help
[21:28] <crdlb> fabio_: this channel is not for jaunty
[21:28] <Cobra_Girl> everything looks so much better now  :)
[21:28] <buttons1> If I installed a theme from the repositories shouldn't it already appear in the list or is there something else I have to do?
[21:28] <fabio_> i'm going to downgrade, thank u so much
[21:29] <crdlb> lyhana8: that's not what revdep-rebuild does, but there is apt-get autoremove for removing unused dependencies
[21:29] <lyhana8> crdlb: what does revdep-rebuild ? check broken deps ?
[21:29] <lyhana8> buttons1: a theme for what ?
[21:29] <kandinsk1> why do people still use apt-get instead of aptitude?
[21:30] <kandinsk1> not being snarky: someone told me aptitude was much newer and better, so I started using it
[21:30] <irvingh30> hello i need help
[21:30] <lyhana8> kandinsk1: some told that aptitude can introduce some problems...
[21:30] <kandinsk1> irvingh30: don't ask to ask, just state your problem
[21:30] <crdlb> lyhana8: it rebuilds packages broken by ABI bumps in shared libraries; as a binary distro, ubuntu does not make you deal with that
[21:31] <lyhana8> crdlb: what is ABI bumps ?
[21:31] <buttons1> I installed a theme from the repo and it did not appear in the theme list what should I do?

[21:32] <irvingh30> i dont know aparently is to log in
[21:32] <crdlb> lyhana8: the binary interface by which applications use shared libraries, but as I said, ubuntu handles it
[21:32] <HammerHead66> buttons1: browse for it.
[21:33] <buttons1> HammerHead66: can you tell me how to find out where the package is installed to?
[21:33] <kandinsk1> irvingh30: I don't know kubuntu live, but ubuntu live just lands you in a working desktop
[21:33] <lyhana8> crdlb: yep, that just to know.
[21:33] <lyhana8> Does aptitue have an equivalent of apt-get autoremove ?
[21:33] <Blase> i have a problem. Updated my Ubuntu 8.10 and after reboot is displayed only consol (sry of my english)
[21:34] <GillaGal> Does Ubuntu utilize a Quad core processoe?
[21:34] <HammerHead66> buttons1:   look on your desktop it's probably there
[21:34] <GillaGal> processor
[21:34] <irvingh30> well kubuntu live does not, and in fact, asks you for a password and username
[21:34] <crdlb> lyhana8: I believe aptitude just removes the dependencies at the same time that it removes the explicitly-installed package
