[06:36] <damneinstein> tomkelleher: could you clarify?
[06:36] <wastrel> `JD: you'll have to learn to use the command line, or boot from a rescue disk
[06:36] <monzie> hi all
[06:37] <`JD> How would I paste into command line!!!I cant.
[06:37] <zphinx> God damn, should it be so hard  to find a decent ipv6 tunnel broker :/
[06:37] <gloin> !bugzilla
[06:37] <ubotu> Ubuntu's bugzilla ( http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com ) is now closed to new bugs.  The new bugtracker is at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs
[06:37] <tomkelleher> damneinstein: just as it did before as soon as I give it an inital command like the "linux mediacheck" it scans my system then my screen goes black and it stops reading the CD
[06:37] <iceman> Still debating if i should actualy run Ubuntu 64 bit, or ubuntu 32 bit ... any one got input to offer ....
[06:37] <monzie> shift-insert to paste into command line `JD
[06:37] <damneinstein> it stops reading the cd?
[06:38] <corvax> you can copy from links browser
[06:38] <corvax> lol
[06:38] <makaveli> !tell makaveli ipv6
[06:38] <makaveli> he said I wont
[06:38] <`JD> What about if I have to restart the computer to get back into ubuntu monzie?
[06:38] <tomkelleher> damneinstein: yea
[06:38] <jsestri2> I am having trouble with XWindows, it will not start properly if my onboard network is enabled(cable in or out), but starts just fine completely if i disable it via BIOS...Anyone have any help/suggestions?
[06:38] <wastrel> `JD:  you could transfer the file on a floppy disk, you could print it out and retype it, you could mount your windows filesystem and copy it over, you could download it with a command-line web browser
[06:38] <crouton> jsestri2: Does X lock up hard if the NIC is enabled, or can you shift to a virtual terminal and get a dmesg?
[06:39] <wastrel> `JD:  you could boot from a rescue disk and paste it that way
[06:39] <damneinstein> tomkelleher: does it spit out a particular error?
[06:39] <`JD> I have a webserver.  Could it load a txt file from there?
[06:39] <tomkelleher> damneinstein: I don't think so, not that I could see
[06:39] <serpa> Anyone know a good site that can help explain to me how IRC works?  Unfortunatly I'm somewhat retarded when it comes to this stuff.  =/
[06:39] <wastrel> `JD:  yes
[06:39] <crouton> serpa: what part of IRC do you need explained?
[06:39] <`JD> What would I have to enter to load  it?
[06:39] <corvax> not sure if the knoppix hacks work on ubuntu live
[06:39] <jsestri2> crouton: it gives me a sort of error screen that looks like text based windows, with some sort of error messages...it then drops me out into the normal terminal login
[06:39] <wastrel> `JD:  wget  would probably work
[06:40] <jsestri2> crouton: it would appear everything boots, just not XWindows
[06:40] <yuri_> general lin question: the "bin" folder in the filesys is like a folder of ".exe's" in windows terms, correct? why are there more than one? thre is also a bin folder in /usr
[06:40] <wastrel> is wget installed by default?
[06:40] <damneinstein> tomkelleher: have you by chance tried the live-cd that comes with the pressed cd?
[06:40] <`JD> so say... wget www.mysite.com/txtfile ?
[06:40] <serpa> It's just the first time I'm using IRC, and I just don't know how it works in general.
[06:40] <martman> i reconfigured xorg so i could try and get some higher resoltuons, i can see the chnages in the config file to but im still running at 1024 and i dont have any higher choices in display system settings
[06:40] <crouton> jsestri2: do a 'dmesg' from the terminal, see if there's any weird error messages
[06:40] <concept10> gangsta, Ive found the source!
[06:40] <martman> anyone to get higher?
[06:40] <jsestri2> ok...I'll have to do a quick boot into ubuntu
[06:40] <jsestri2> be back in a few
[06:40] <wastrel> `JD:  yes
[06:40] <Swif> etc/apt/sources.list no such file or directory waaaa :(
[06:40] <IdleOne> `JD:  yes
[06:40] <tomkelleher> damneinstein: yea, I can't load into the system either, I can only get to the spalsh screen then it goes nuts on me
[06:40] <Swif> wtf did I do 8-(
[06:40] <crouton> serpa: pretty simple - just type.  tab lets you autocomplete most people's nicks, and you can /msg someone directly if need be.
[06:41] <concept10> Anyone having problems with direct rendering ATI drivers?  Check this page: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DriTroubleshooting
[06:41] <`JD> K, So, how would I open the xorg.conf file after that?
[06:41] <Swif> I have an xp system backup with all this in it and working lol
[06:41] <Swif> I can try that
[06:41] <wastrel> `JD:  you would  sudo cp xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:41] <Swif> brb
[06:41] <`JD> ah
[06:41] <wastrel> cp is the command to copy a file
[06:41] <damneinstein> tomkelleher: if by "nuts" you mean spewing out messages, that is normal for the live-cd version. How much time did you spend attempting to load the live-cd?
[06:42] <talisein> yuri_: /bin is for general utilities for all users, /sbin is for utilities for the system administrator, /usr/bin has your real programs like netscape, etc. and usr/sbin has more nifty badministrator programs. It just happens to be useful that way
[06:42] <Swif> im emailing this help file to myself lol
[06:42] <tomkelleher> damneinstein: by nuts, I mean my screen went strange colors, and I spent about half an hour trying to get the live cd to work
[06:42] <Swif> thanx 8-) everyone
[06:42] <`JD> and then, would the xorg.conf you first said would that be the one I want to replace the other?
[06:43] <damneinstein> tomkelleher: I see. I asked because it might have been a problem with the install cd.
[06:43] <wastrel> `JD:  you want to replace the (broken) conf file at   /etc/X11/xorg.conf   with the good one
[06:43] <`JD> Dosent that mean I need to save that one from the web?
[06:44] <damneinstein> tomkeller: what video card and motherboard do you have?
[06:44] <`JD> I would go wget www.mysite.com/goodconfigfile.txt
[06:44] <`JD> then save it?
[06:44] <tomkelleher> damneinstein: not sure about the motherboard, but I have an ATI Redeon Xpress 200M at 128MB
[06:44] <`JD> then replace it?
[06:45] <primoturbo> Does anyone know how to replace the globe icon with the real Firefox icon?
[06:45] <newbuntie> 'JD don't have to save it, wget downloads it for you
[06:45] <sagarp> how badly would Xgl run on an unaccelerated machine?
[06:45] <wastrel> `JD:  wget automatically downloads/saves
[06:45] <`JD> oh so it downloads and displays?
[06:45] <wastrel> `JD:  it doesn't display
[06:45] <damneinstein> tomkelleher: that might be the problem. ATI in general has very poor support for Linux. The drivers provided are not as good as the Windows counterpart.
[06:45] <wastrel> `JD:  wget just slurps them down
[06:46] <`JD> Then all I have to do is go sudo cp xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:46] <tomkelleher> damneinstein: so could it just be Ubuntu, because I tried the backtrack beta and it workd ok
[06:46] <wastrel> `JD:   sudo cp  <good config filename> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:47] <wastrel> `JD:  whatever the filename is called
[06:47] <kbrosnan> primoturbo, use firefox from mozilla.com, debian/ubuntu don't feel that mozilla's tradmark policy is compatable with their disto
[06:47] <`JD> so it needs not to be called xorg.conf wastrel?
[06:47] <kbrosnan> ubotu, tell primoturbo about firefox 1.5
[06:47] <wastrel> `JD:  the original file can be called whatever,  once you cp it the destination will be  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:47] <kbrosnan> ubotu, tell primoturbo about firefox1.5
[06:48] <rusga> Hi. Will Ubuntu install fine from iso on a Promise Fasttrak100 as a boot device? (Note: no IDE channels active)
[06:48] <`JD> Then I reboot and it shall be solved :D
[06:48] <`JD> thx
[06:48] <wastrel> `JD:  hopefully.... gl
[06:48] <`JD> I'll brb then
[06:48] <Swif> ok im bringing back my xp pro system restore so I can do the update I sent to my email pasted into email heh 8-) brb lol
[06:48] <damneinstein> tomkelleher: I am not familiar with backtrack and their drivers for ATI. I must apologize, I am not too familiar with ATI support on Ubuntu as I myself only have nVidia and Integrated cards. I am sure someone else, either on the IRC channel or on the forms, can help you better.
[06:48] <redblade> Hi I was wondering how to set up SunBird
[06:49] <Swif> thanx everyone :D
[06:49] <`JD> wait, does it need to have the file extension .conf wastrel?
[06:49] <redblade> I have the files and all but I'm not sure what commands to use
[06:49] <tomkelleher> damneinstein: it's alright, atleast I know it's probably my video card now, thanks for the help
[06:49] <SebastianM> good night guys. :) thanks for all the help!
[06:50] <wastrel> `JD:  /etc/X11/xorg.conf    needs to be called that exactly.  the other one  - doesn't matter
[06:50] <iceman> whats the command to install a .run file .... like this et-linux-2.56-2.x86.run
[06:51] <Belboz99> Hey all, I can't figure out why this script isn't executing.  I've updated the rc.d files, and it runs fine from the command line, any ideas?
[06:51] <`JD> I'm confused, I'm making a new file using the paste of the original conf file. Then getitng it and replacing it. Dosent that mean that the new one I am useing to replace the old need to be called xorg.conf too? or called anything and it will auto name...
[06:51] <OmegaAlpha> concept10, yeah im having probs getting my Radeon Direct rendering turned on
[06:51] <wastrel> iceman:  .run i think is a bash script  try  ./filename
[06:51] <OmegaAlpha> concept10, did you use that site to solve the same problem?
[06:51] <Autumn-Leaves> hi any one from indonesia?
[06:51] <Jivenix>  ndiswrapper (import:238): unknown symbol: ntoskrnl.exe:strrchr
[06:51] <concept10> OmegaAlpha, look at that page, its the best so far
[06:51] <Jivenix> does this error mean anything to anyone
[06:52] <damneinstein> tomkelleher: You are welcome. And I do apologize I couldn't help you further
[06:52] <redblade> Sunbird? anyone?
[06:52] <concept10> OmegaAlpha, go the the bottom and look at Userspace section
[06:52] <concept10> redblade, Sunbird calendar?'
[06:52] <wastrel> `JD:  you're downloading a file with wget, this will save it to the home directory.  then you are copying the file to  /etc/X11/xorg.conf    this both moves the file to the folder /etc/X11  and renames it to  xorg.conf
[06:53] <Belboz99> This script won't execute on boot, though it runs fine from the command line, any ideas? sudo -u dan sh -c "cd /media/sda3/f@h; sh go"
[06:53] <redblade> thats the one
[06:53] <`JD> ah okay so it can be newconfig.txt then.
[06:53] <wastrel> `JD:  or whatever, yah :]
[06:53] <concept10> redblade, you can get an calendar extension to thunderbird
[06:53] <jsestri2> crouton?
[06:54] <crouton> sorry
[06:54] <redblade> concept10, how?
[06:54] <crouton> what's up?
[06:54] <wastrel> Belboz99:  cd is a bash builtin....  i don't know if you can really use it that way
[06:54] <`JD> woot thanks wish me luck coz I dont have very good luck when it comes to these things
[06:54] <odat> yesterday my webcam was reconized and working and today it isn't   ????
[06:54] <jsestri2> crouton: no problem, I just got back, I did the dmesg command from the terminal, after XWindows fails to start...I saw no error messages.
[06:54] <concept10> redblade, goto the mozilla extension site for thunderbird
[06:54] <wisie> Was just about to install mysql but am getting this error 'http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8836' could anyone recomend whats up
[06:55] <jsestri2> crouton: any idea for a location of a Xwin log file that would contain the problems from its failed start?
[06:55] <Belboz99> thanks wastrel, it's worked before using the cd command though, any other ideas?
[06:55] <concept10> wastrel, would you run this for me on the box you were working on earlier?  locate radeon_dri.so
[06:55] <crouton> jsestri2: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:55] <glick> hey when you login remotely a message appears
[06:55] <glick> what file is that message in
[06:55] <wastrel> Belboz99:  sh /media/sda3/f@h/go    ?
[06:55] <wastrel> Belboz99:  not sure...
[06:56] <airmikey> usb port not working in breezy
[06:56] <_jason> glick: /etc/motd probably
[06:56] <jsestri2> crouton: anything else worth checking while im at it? (i'm dual booting this comp, so i cant have this up at the same time as ubuntu)
[06:56] <glick> thanks _jason
[06:56] <odat> yesterday my webcam was reconized and working and today it isn't   ????
[06:56] <wastrel> concept10:  /usr/lib/dri/radeon_dri.so
[06:57] <concept10> wastrel, thats the same one i have, but ...
[06:57] <crouton> jsestri2: i'm assuming you don't have a spare NIC?
[06:57] <Belboz99> wastrel, how do I restart the init script?
[06:57] <Unicorn_Giggles> hi everyone
[06:57] <crouton> oh my
[06:57] <wastrel> Belboz99:  dunno :]   i'm a bit fuzzy on init
[06:57] <concept10> wastrel, I get this error: libGL error: dlopen /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so failed (/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/radeon_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
[06:57] <crouton> rainbow skittles and unicorn giggles?
[06:57] <jsestri2> crouton: unfortunately no...but if it would solve the problem, i could probaly spare the 10$...or maybe my roommate here at college has one i can pilfer...heh
[06:57] <Jivenix> how do you remove a user and remove their home directory also
[06:58] <concept10> wastrel, im about to make a symlink!
[06:58] <crouton> jsestri2: just so I've got this straight - if the NIC is enabled and the cable plugged in, you *do* get inet access but X fails to start?
[06:58] <concept10> wastrel, how do I link those two?
[06:59] <crouton> Jivenix: 'man deluser' should tell you
[06:59] <Jivenix> ok
[06:59] <jsestri2> crouton: I'm going to check the inet capabilities when i restart this time...hopefully i can ftp that log file somewhere else...
[06:59] <wastrel> concept10:  ls: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/: No such file or directory
[06:59] <kyo> whats the bash line to shutdown?
[06:59] <zphinx> Anyone here use btexact for ipv6 tunnel brokering?
[06:59] <crouton> jsestri2: I was going to suggest just installing a commandline IRC client, but that would work as well.
[06:59] <jsestri2> crouton: at very least that dmesg made it sound like the eth setup was fine
[06:59] <wastrel> kyo:  sudo shutdown -h now
[06:59] <kyo> ah
[06:59] <kyo> -h
[06:59] <crouton> jsestri2: if the NIC was enabled, yeah.
[06:59] <jsestri2> crouton: well i'll see how it goes after this reboot...
[06:59] <kyo> I did 'sudo shutdown now' and it was in maintaince mode
[06:59] <kyo> lol
[07:00] <jsestri2> crouton: thanks for all the help thus far
[07:00] <crouton> jsestri2: sho
[07:00] <concept10> wastrel, one more command for me please! ldd /usr/bin/X11/glxinfo | grep dri
[07:00] <crouton> kyo: if it's in maintenance, maybe hit the power button? if it's a relatively recent machine it should honor the command and shutdown gracefully.
[07:00] <wastrel> concept10:  no output
[07:01] <concept10> okay
[07:01] <concept10> wastrel, maybe i need to reboot
[07:01] <wastrel> clear out the running modules
[07:01] <wastrel> might help
[07:01] <crouton> heh
[07:01] <Belboz99> hey wasterel, I think I got it running!  Turns out the script that it was pointing to was trying to create a file as a normal user in a single-user file-system :P
[07:02] <wastrel> Belboz99:  ahh that would explain the cd
[07:02] <glick> hey i just downloaded an icon theme for gnome
[07:02] <glick> how do i install it and choose it?
[07:02] <Scott31337> I'm getting a new computer in a couple days - haven't played with Linux since 99..looking at different distros... is this a good one?
[07:02] <wastrel> glick:  system > preferences > theme   drag & drop it into the window
[07:02] <glick> Scott31337, no its terrible
[07:02] <wastrel> Scott31337:  yes!
[07:03] <glick> thanks wastrel
[07:03] <wastrel> Scott31337:  what were you on in 99
[07:03] <Madpilot> Scott31337: you're going to get biased answers here, you know :P
[07:03] <Scott31337> Slackware and Redhat
[07:03] <Belboz99> hey wasterel, you wouldn't happen to know how to change the priority of a process, such as wine, to idle, would you?
[07:03] <wastrel> mmm slackware
[07:03] <Scott31337> mad: yes
[07:03] <`JD> Yay!
[07:03] <concept10> wastrel, thanks alot for your efforts, ill be back later, im going to reboot

[07:08] <Swif> sources.list 8-(
[07:08] <`JD> thanks
[07:08] <abk> on AMD64, couldn't get wine to install using Synaptic. Downloaded the binary .debs from the wine site and used dpkg -i --force-architecture to install. wine works, but it's saying that "the application is trying to create a window, but no such driver could be loaded. Be sure that your X Window server is running and that $SYSTEM is set correctly."
[07:08] <corvax> swif how is it messed up?
[07:08] <wastrel> Swif:  have you looked at synaptic?
[07:08] <Swif> I can reinstall
[07:08] <abk> I don't know where to start
[07:08] <Swif> yes
[07:08] <kuru> help
[07:08] <kuru> ?
[07:08] <kuru> \?
[07:08] <Swif> i changed it remember lol
[07:09] <wastrel> Swif:  i believe synaptic will write a correct sources.list file
[07:09] <Swif> i keep getting popups says it cant be found
[07:09] <makaveli> does yahoo messenger have webcam support on ubuntu?
[07:09] <corvax> swif dont reinstall download either the breezy iso or the dapper flight release 4
[07:09] <tkup|bed> Anybody who is using gtk-gnutell? Do I need to add a gnutella server to be able to search for files? I submitted a few queries but no results...
[07:09] <abk> no love, guys?
[07:10] <abk> can you tell me what the X Window server app is called so I can try and configure/research/reinstall?
[07:10] <inter> My 700m won't turn off after _successfully_ writing the suspend2 image to the hdd...manual reboot is required but restoring the image works perfectly...anyone got a suggestion on the poweroff prob?
[07:10] <stephen_> can anyone give me a hand setting up wireless with wpa_supplicant
[07:10] <makaveli> !tell makaveli webcam
[07:10] <gpm> hi guys. i just installed the clearlooks-quicksilver theme from art.gnome.org, all the other clearlooks-based themes work perfectly but clearlooks-quicksilver just looks like the default theme (not the way it's supposed to) anyone else have this problem?!
[07:11] <wastrel> abk:  your X window server is your graphical interface
[07:11] <abk> wastrel: I had that general idea.
[07:11] <inter> stephen_: what you trying to do?
[07:11] <abk> wastrel: any idea why Wine would give me that error?
[07:11] <inter> stephen_: err...what is the exact prob?
[07:11] <Frogzoo> !tell abk about xorg
[07:11] <wastrel> abk:  what does  echo $SYSTEM  give you ?
[07:11] <jsestri2> crouton: i do have inet access even after the XWindows server fails, and i use the terminal without XWindows
[07:11] <Swif> I added cd rom lol
[07:11] <Swif> it fixed it
[07:11] <crouton> jsestri2: That's interesting.
[07:12] <jsestri2> i'm dl'ing the logs now
[07:12] <Swif> looks like no errors popup
[07:12] <stephen_> it doesnt seem to be assinging me an IP
[07:12] <jsestri2> crouton: if you'd like to take a look...
[07:12] <abk> "echo $SYSTEM" at a brand-new prompt gives me a blank line and then anopther prompt
[07:12] <Swif> uhoh itsback
[07:12] <abk> no info.
[07:12] <crouton> jsestri2: sure, did you get the X log?  You can put it into pastebin..
[07:12] <crouton> !pastebin
[07:12] <ubotu> pastebin is, like, totally, a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[07:12] <Swif> so just download the breezy version of ubuntu??
[07:12] <jsestri2> !pastebin
[07:13] <wastrel> abk:  i don't know anything about wine- but the error implies it's looking for some value in your SYSTEM environment variable
[07:13] <jsestri2> crouton: whats the syntax as that?

[07:13] <inter> stephen_: your running dhclient or dhcpcd on your wireless device after wpa authenticates, right?
[07:13] <irv10tz> hey guys i need help on installing my printer
[07:13] <wastrel> abk:  perhaps wine install docs will tell you what
[07:13] <timfrost> abk, some thngs won
[07:13] <irv10tz> hey guys i need help on installing my printer
[07:13] <crouton> jsestri2: Oh, that's just the bot.. You'll need to visit the website, paste in the log, and then post the resulting URL here
[07:13] <tga> howdy
[07:13] <Swif> ok will do
[07:14] <tga> gpg question: if I have my public key and my passphrase but I lost my home dir can I somehow recover my private key?
[07:14] <abk> well, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg is doing something
[07:14] <jsestri2> ok
[07:14] <seank> after upgrading from breezy to dapper via apt-get dist-upgrade, the system does not boot.  it says /dev/hda1 does not exist right after GRUB.  is /dev organized differently in dapper?
[07:14] <abk> I'm reconfiguring
[07:14] <alcros> Hi, I just installed kubuntu on a AMD64 (Turion), but it hangs at boot time on "checking battery state", I found a few pointers but they all refer to nvidia cards while I have an ATI
[07:14] <abk> which looks promising.
[07:14] <alcros> any ideas?
[07:14] <jsestri2> crouton: i just ftp'd it to a website...will that be fine, or you want it there?
[07:14] <wastrel> abk:  you're reconfiguring your X server (your GUI)...   if you already have a GUI this is unnecessary and may break X
[07:14] <crouton> jsestri2: prefer pastebin, if it's ok with you.
[07:14] <IdleOne> !tell alcros  about nvidia
[07:15] <jsestri2> crouton: sure
[07:15] <abk> hokay.
[07:15] <IdleOne> alcros:  try #kubuntu also they can help more
[07:15] <irv10tz> hey guys, please help me... i need to install my printers.. can you give me a hand please?
[07:15] <jsestri2> !pastebin
[07:15] <ubotu> methinks pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[07:15] <abk> wastrel: so I should *not* continue with this reconfiguration process?
[07:15] <ubuntu> What happens if Ubuntu refuses to mount the partition when I click enable?
[07:15] <timfrost> abk, some things just won't work in 64-bit mode.  It sounds as if the version of wine you installed may be one of them.  If that is the case, you will need to install a 32-bit chroot, and run wine in that chroot.
[07:15] <crouton> lordy, apt-get upgrade on a K6-266 takes several forevers.
[07:15] <jsestri2> crouton: the bot dosent seem to be responding....
[07:15] <IdleOne> irv10tz:  without more info like make model we cant help..also what problem are you having
[07:15] <jsestri2> !pastebin
[07:16] <ubotu> [pastebin]  a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[07:16] <crouton> jsestri2: You need to visit that website.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[07:16] <alcros> I already did, but no answer, besides, seems more like an ubuntu thing...
[07:16] <jsestri2> kk
[07:16] <gloin> bloody hell
[07:16] <crouton> The bot just hands out information. :)
[07:16] <gloin> launchpad isn't sending my reg mail out

[07:16] <glick> hehe OSX theme is beautiful
[07:16] <gloin> worthless closed-source yadda yadda
[07:16] <airmikey> how come breezy dont see my usb external drive
[07:16] <ubuntu> What happens if Ubuntu refuses to mount the partition when I click enable?
[07:16] <abk> timfrost: I had wine up and running before, on an ATA HD. I reinstalled from scratch on a SATA HD, the Wine repositories weren't working, and now I'm rather stumped.
[07:16] <IdleOne> alcros:  did you try the link ubotu sent you
[07:16] <gloin> why the heck is ubuntu using that instead of bugtraq
[07:16] <Madpilot> aaron: right-click on the panel, click Add To Panel, look for the clock
[07:16] <irv10tz> i am printing something from the net, i executed the print command but my printer won't print.. can you help me?
[07:16] <ubuntu> What happens if Ubuntu refuses to mount the partition when I click enable?
[07:16] <crouton> airmikey: do a 'dmesg | grep sd' and see if it returns anything
[07:17] <wastrel> abk:  i don't think it's useful for your wine problem....  but it might be educational :]
[07:17] <irv10tz> i am printing something from the net, i executed the print command but my printer won't print.. can you help me?
[07:17] <`JD> grrrr
[07:17] <irv10tz> the model is from hp
[07:17] <crouton> ubuntu: Try mounting the partition from the terminal using sudo
[07:17] <abk> wastrel: thanks, I"ll continue and at worst I'll learn something :)
[07:17] <jsestri2> crouton: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8837
[07:17] <`JD> Whats with the freakin huge stuff on my screen.
[07:17] <aaron> Madpilot, right click doesn;t bring up a menu
[07:17] <jsestri2> crouton: thats Xorg.0.log
[07:17] <alcros> sorry, I didn't see it, I'm checking it out thanks
[07:17] <`JD> Everyhing is huge!
[07:18] <crouton> jsestri2: taking a look
[07:18] <wastrel> `JD:  did you do  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[07:18] <andrew_226> I am having trouble playing divx avi files
[07:18] <Madpilot> aaron: right-click somewhere else on the panel, you can move the clock afterward
[07:18] <IdleOne> irv10tz: try System > Advanced > Pringing
[07:18] <IdleOne> printing
[07:18] <`JD> I kinda cancelled it because I'm afraid to do something wrong
[07:18] <andrew_226> I followed the instructions
[07:18] <`JD> I'll try again
[07:18] <jsestri2> crouton: if you'd like to see the output of dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8838
[07:18] <aaron> oh, the whole menu is locked up
[07:19] <Yvette> why i open a soft or move the panel of gnome always slow.
[07:19] <crouton> jsestri2: For whatever reason, it's not recognizing your video card as valid for the driver it's loading.  Is this a laptop?
[07:19] <wastrel> `JD:  it will make an automatic backup of your current xorg.conf
[07:19] <irv10tz> IdleOne: there's no advanced in System
[07:19] <irv10tz> IdleOne: there's no advanced in System
[07:19] <jsestri2> crouton: no its a desktop
[07:19] <airmikey> crouton: its showing my internal drives
[07:19] <aaron> can you restart the menu ?
[07:19] <IdleOne> irv10tz:  I meant Administration sorry
[07:19] <`JD> Okay I did it. Should I restart?
[07:19] <jsestri2> crouton: thats odd that it recognizes it though if the onboard NIC is disabled...
[07:20] <abk> okay
[07:20] <crouton> airmikey: are you using onboard USB or is it an add-in PCI card?
[07:20] <Madpilot> aaron: "killall gnome-menu" should work - might close a lot of other stuff, though
[07:20] <airmikey> onboard
[07:20] <aaron> Madpilot, cheers
[07:21] <abk> I had it wrong: Wine's complaining about $DISPLAY. when I type "echo $DISPLAY" it gives me a line with ":0.0" in it. can I change this to make Wine happier?
[07:21] <gpm> hi guys. i just installed the clearlooks-quicksilver theme from art.gnome.org, all the other clearlooks-based themes work perfectly but clearlooks-quicksilver just looks like the default theme (not the way it's supposed to) anyone else have this problem?!
[07:21] <concept10> gangsta, OmegaAlpha I got direct rendering working ! with a symlink
[07:21] <gloin> so
[07:21] <gloin> just in case anyone that matters is here
[07:21] <gloin> launchpad's MTU is broken
[07:21] <gloin> sucks!
[07:21] <gloin> grr grr
[07:21] <wastrel> gpm:  are you sure it's a gnome 2 and not a gnome 1 theme?
[07:21] <Madpilot> gloin: what do you mean?
[07:21] <crouton> jsestri2: looking around a bit, brb
[07:21] <wastrel> what's launchpad and what's MTU?
[07:22] <jsestri2> crouton: alright...i'll be here
[07:22] <gpm> wastrel: yeah. it's a gtk2 theme.
[07:22] <gloin> Madpilot: it doesn't respect RFCs
[07:22] <alcros> Hi IddleOne and ubotu, I'm sorry but it still refers to nvidia, I have an ATI
[07:22] <gpm> wastrel: do they even have gtk1 themes on art.gnome.org?
[07:22] <airmikey> crouton: would this be my external.Attached scsi disk sda at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
[07:22] <alcros> have you had any experience with those cards?

[07:22] <andrew_226> how do you install themes?
[07:22] <wastrel> gpm:  you didn't say where you downloaded it ;]
[07:22] <gloin> Madpilot: do you know what launchpad is?
[07:22] <`JD> It hasent changed anything
[07:22] <crouton> airmikey: Possibly.  Do you have SATA drives?
[07:22] <gpm> wastrel: my bad
[07:22] <fuxk3dup> which packages are required to get vi mode when running perl -d ???
[07:22] <gloin> Madpilot: also, do you know what greylisting is?
[07:22] <crouton> jsestri2: What motherboard do you have again?
[07:22] <`JD> Noy that I really changed many things in that thing you told me to do wasterl.
[07:23] <`JD> *wastrel
[07:23] <Madpilot> gloin: launchpad.net, you mean? Of course - I use it regularly
[07:23] <gloin> yes
[07:23] <gloin> well
[07:23] <gloin> do you know what greylisting is?
[07:23] <wastrel> `JD:  you're sure your screen & video card can support higher resolutions?
[07:23] <windman77> anyone know where I can find additional xfig image libraries?
[07:23] <jsestri2> crouton: ASUS - P5GPL - (intel p4)
[07:23] <airmikey> crouton: for my internal drives , 1 is sata  the other is scsi
[07:23] <gloin> Madpilot: www.greylisting.org
[07:23] <`JD> yes
[07:23] <Madpilot> gloin: there is a #launchpad channel
[07:23] <concept10> wastrel, i just made a symlink to that file and it works now
[07:23] <gloin> yes
[07:23] <`JD> 19" dell LCD
[07:23] <gloin> it's about as busy as an empty chan
[07:23] <crouton> airmikey: SATA/SCSI both use the /dev/sd nomenclature.
[07:23] <alcros> Thanks for those links !!!
[07:24] <wastrel> concept10:  excellent
[07:24] <IdleOne> alcros:  hope that helps you

[07:24] <`JD> I'll get it one sec
[07:24] <tako> hello, anyone knows if it is possible to generate core dumps in Ubuntu? Is this disabled?
[07:24] <gloin> Madpilot: why the hell isn't ubuntu using something with a proper license?
[07:24] <concept10> wastrel, alright, later, i just came to help gangsta and OmegaAlpha but I guess they are idle

[07:25] <`JD> Wastrel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8825
[07:25] <Madpilot> gloin: LP is an in-house project by Canonical - the same company behind Ubuntu
[07:25] <Nunquam_Fidelis> please help, someone
[07:25] <fuxk3dup> which packages are required to get vi mode when running perl -d  ???
[07:25] <gloin> ergh
[07:26] <tako> glick, go to System/Preferences/Cursor Selection
[07:26] <gloin> Madpilot: until it's not-broken, perhaps they ought to use known-good software
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> Nunquam_Fidelis,  could close all windows accesing it.. then use the 'eject' command.
[07:26] <gloin> like, say, bugtraq
[07:26] <wastrel> `JD:  xdpyinfo | grep dimensions
[07:26] <`JD> Do I put that in terminal?
[07:26] <wastrel> `JD:  yes
[07:26] <crouton> airmikey: Copy your 'dmesg' into Pastebin and send the URL
[07:26] <Dr_Willis> Nunquam_Fidelis,  but it may be still mounted.. Hmm..  xfce may have some mounting tool.
[07:26] <tako> hello, anyone knows if it is possible to generate core dumps in Ubuntu? Is this disabled?
[07:27] <glick> tako, i did but i dont see how to install it
[07:27] <wastrel> tako:  dumps of what?
[07:27] <`JD> done, wastrel. Do I reboot?
[07:27] <wastrel> `JD:  no
[07:27] <wastrel> `JD:  what did it say?
[07:27] <AntMaz> anyone have any idea about fixing the lily problem
[07:27] <Nunquam_Fidelis> hmm
[07:27] <Nunquam_Fidelis> eject command?
[07:27] <tako> glick, there is a button that says "install theme"
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> Nunquam_Fidelis,  i used to use it all the time.
[07:27] <crouton> jsestri2: Try this.
[07:28] <Nunquam_Fidelis> Dr_Willis: how do I use it? :-)
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> Nunquam_Fidelis,  ages ago stuff like cd's dident 'auto mount' under linux :P
[07:28] <crouton> jsestri2: Copy your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak, and run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> type 'eject' :P
[07:28] <AntMaz> every package i install has an error
[07:28] <tako> glick, you have to download the themes first
[07:28] <Corsair> Can anyone assist me with a Samba question? ;x
[07:28] <OmegaAlpha> concept10, im here sorry was afk
[07:28] <glick> tako, i know
[07:28] <thelsdj> i have to say, Xgl/compiz is pretty amazing
[07:28] <glick> tako, but in preferences->mouse i see no such button
[07:28] <crouton> jsestri2: That should do the xserver reconfiguration from the terminal.  You said you have a GeForce 6600GT?
[07:28] <wastrel> AntMaz:  did you try to install the package it's complaining about?
[07:28] <Nunquam_Fidelis> err
[07:28] <Nunquam_Fidelis> hmm
[07:28] <wastrel> `JD:  what did the xdpyifo command say?

[07:28] <tako> wastrel, I'm trying to debug an applitaciton and trying to generate a core dump when it seg faults
[07:29] <jdumont> Something tells me that if I download the edubuntu cd image that i will have something differerent than my current install of ubuntu > edubuntu-desktop > edubuntu-server via the sudo apt-get install edubuntu-desktop.  yes/no?
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> gee - i really NEED that. :P lol
[07:29] <tako> glick, is not Preferences/Mouse
[07:29] <AntMaz> yes and it wont uninstall or upgrade or install im ready to start all over agian
[07:29] <`JD> Is that good or bad wastrel?
[07:29] <jsestri2> crouton: is there an commandline too built into Ubuntu?
[07:29] <tako> glick, is Preferences/Cursor Selection
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> jdumont,  you will have more items installed now - i imagine.
[07:29] <crouton> jsestri2: ?  commandline tool?
[07:29] <unix_infidel> umm there's no .xinitrc in ubuntu, how do i set which wm startx users?
[07:29] <jsestri2> crouton: i mean an commandline IRC tool? -- lost the IRC
[07:29] <unix_infidel> uses*
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> unix_infidel,  MAKE the file :P
[07:30] <wastrel> `JD:  it's your screen resolution - it is 640x480... that is small :]
[07:30] <glick> tako, i see no such menu
[07:30] <crouton> jsestri2: plenty of tools, what exactly do you mean? dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg is commandline that will re-setup your Xorg.conf file... which is why I advocating copying it into a backup file.
[07:30] <wastrel> tako:  maybe ask in #c  how to make your executable dump core - i'm not a developer
[07:30] <Corsair> When i try to connect to my samba share, it is asking me to login
[07:31] <irv10tz> hey i already installed my printer how come it doesn't print?
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> Corsair,  you are connecting with a windows machine to the linux 'samba' share?
[07:31] <Corsair> yea
[07:31] <jdumont> meh... I'll just d/l the edubuntu cd and see what happens.  got a slow connection right now of only 250KB/sec
[07:31] <`JD> How do I change that westrel?
[07:31] <crouton> Corsair: did you perform 'smbpasswd -a <username>' ?
[07:31] <Corsair> its a fresh install of Ubuntu
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> Corsair,  i recall that on the linux box you Must do a 'sudo smbpasswd -a YourUserName'
[07:31] <Corsair> um nope ;x
[07:31] <AntMaz> im ready to reinstall the operating system i dont know what little detail i missed
[07:31] <crouton> :)
[07:31] <biovore> oO
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> Corsair,  then you may have to restart samba.
[07:31] <jsestri2> crouton: i meant so i dont have to reboot into windows to use IRC
[07:31] <wastrel> `JD:  what resolution can your monitor support?
[07:32] <unix_infidel> Dr_Willis: i found it, but its in /etc?
[07:32] <crouton> jsestri2: Ah. Yes.  Lemme see which ones work from cli..
[07:32] <AntMaz> but maybe it was because i never stoped the script for mozilla movieplayer
[07:32] <`JD> I dunno. 1240 x 1240 something like that
[07:32] <AntMaz> well i did eventully
[07:32] <wastrel> what script?
[07:32] <`JD> brb food
... re-setup your Xorg.conf file... backup file.<--- it does make a backup of xorg.conf
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> unix_infidel,  thats the system wide one.. a .xinitrc is just a simple shell script. :P example -> 1 line.. --> 'gnome-session'
[07:32] <Corsair> ok, that made it login, am i going to have to enter the password every time I want to use this?
[07:33] <theshibboleth> where are fonts installed?
[07:33] <crouton> intelikey: I like to be super careful. :)
[07:33] <tako> wastrel is not about how to do it in the application itself... someone is helping me to debug Rosegarden 1.2.3 and asked me to generate a core dump but he warned me about some distros having this optiod disabled... and it seems to be like that in Ubuntu
[07:33] <tako> glick, are you using Breezy?
[07:33] <unix_infidel> Dr_Willis: gotcha.
[07:33] <glick> tako, yeah
[07:33] <unix_infidel> i'm beginning to hate all this gui
[07:33] <IdleOne> who was looking for cursor themes?
[07:33] <glick> IdleOne, me
[07:34] <IdleOne> http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Desktop_EyeCandy#HOWTO:_INSTALL_CURSOR_THEMES_ON_UBUNTU.2FGNOME
[07:34] <Dr_Willis> unix_infidel,  why even worry about it. :P thats what gdm/kdm handles nicely these days lol
[07:34] <Corsair> ok, now i have a little more complex of a question than that
[07:34] <IdleOne> try that
[07:34] <intelikey> unix_infidel so remove it ?
[07:34] <Corsair> How can i access the terminal for the linux box from windows
[07:34] <unix_infidel> lol.
[07:34] <tako> glick, do you have package gcursor installed?
[07:34] <unix_infidel> omf.g
[07:34] <crouton> jsestri2: irssi i think
[07:34] <glick> tako, i dont think so
[07:34] <AntMaz> wastrel it was something like lillypond that had the error
[07:34] <Dr_Willis> Corsair,  you mean get a SHELL on the linux machine - in a window on the windows machine?
[07:34] <crouton> !irssi
[07:34] <ubotu> irssi is probably http://f0rked.com/core/irssi
[07:34] <tako> glick, that's why, install it with synaptic
[07:34] <jsestri2> crouton: alright...we'll see if that works
[07:34] <glick> ahh
[07:34] <crouton> yup
[07:34] <crouton> it's cli
[07:35] <AntMaz> i didnt have this problem till after installing wine think i might of messeg it up
[07:35] <Corsair> Sure? lol, im setting up the other machine as a NAS basicly and want to be able to remotely access it
[07:35] <wastrel> AntMaz:  what script were you talking about for mplayer
[07:35] <lhoerste> hello, is there any way to get ubuntu to remember to connect to my wireless connection on startup? as of now, i have to go to the wireless menu and click OK to make the internet work
[07:35] <crouton> http://f0rked.com/images/irssi.png
[07:35] <glick> hmm looks like the archives are down
[07:35] <thelsdj> does ubuntu have a good program for recording a 'screencast'?
[07:35] <jsestri2> crouton: be back in a few
[07:35] <Nunquam_Fidelis> screencast?
[07:35] <carthik> How can I save the commands I enter at the terminal, and the output produced in a text file for a terminal session?
[07:35] <AntMaz> i dont remeber
[07:35] <crouton> jsestri2: aight
[07:36] <jdumont> dr willis.... what i want to do is setup my pc to be a server for edubuntu thin clients but can't see that option after running sudo apt-get install edubuntu-server.
[07:36] <carthik> thelsdj, search for xvidcap
[07:36] <wastrel> lhoerste:  you can set that in the network configuration tool.  system > administration > network
[07:36] <AntMaz> to tell you the truth i think ill just reinstall the operating system update lillypond so then i dont have this problem
[07:36] <carthik> theldsj, wink (non-opensource) also works fine
[07:36] <jdumont> hence the reason to d/l the "edubuntu cd"
[07:36] <glick> also how do i modify my task bar

[07:51] <Madpilot> tga: np - there are links to servers in that tutorial
[07:51] <tga> is keyserver.ubuntu.com synced with anything?

[07:54] <Vashypooh> when i tell Putty to connect to it, it is saying time out
[07:54] <punkass> wastrel: yes i know i can add it just to the panel...but it was in the notifcation area by default and i would like to put it back there
[07:55] <djs_2_6> IdleOne - Isn't the home directory /home/USERNAME ?
[07:55] <IdleOne> jason_:  the driver isnt read because its a windows driver
[07:55] <punkass> wastrel: doh nm..it was just on the left of the notification area
[07:55] <wastrel> punkass middle click moves it, you can put it back next to the notification applet
[07:55] <wastrel> :]
[07:55] <IdleOne> djs_2_6:  yeah
[07:56] <intelikey> djs_2_6 that is default... it can be set or changed.
[07:56] <jason_> Idleone: so is there any way that i can install my driver??
[07:56] <jason_> Idleone: so is there any way that i can install my driver??
[07:56] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  on the linux box what happens if you ssh localhost
[07:56] <djs_2_6> IdleOne - that is what I think I have it set to, since I did not change it, and I am not finding my firefox profile...
[07:56] <jason_> in linux?
[07:56] <No1Viking> Another firewall than firestarter?
[07:56] <IdleOne> !tell jason_  about printer

[07:57] <jdumont> how do I know my domain
[07:57] <odat> anyone familiar with gnomemeeting?
[07:58] <intelikey>  1024x1024 ?
[07:58] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  can you ping the linux box from windows?  are you running a firewall on linux?
[07:58] <jason_> Madpilot: where is the URL???
[07:58] <jason_> Madpilot: where is the URL???
[07:58] <jdumont> from what i read, gnomemeeting is still in development
[07:58] <Vashypooh> its a default install of Ubuntu, i am unaware if it installs firewall on install
[07:58] <jason_> about the printer thing
[07:58] <jdumont> like as in buggy maybe?
[07:58] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  i don't think so...  can you ping linux from windows?
[07:58] <dubnium> question: if I need to install windows, how will i go about it if i already have a windows partition?
[07:58] <Vashypooh> lemme check
[07:58] <IdleOne> jdumont:  what isnt buggy
[07:58] <Madpilot> jason_: please stop repeating everything - and check the msgs the bot has sent you several times now
[07:59] <Vashypooh> yes i can
[07:59] <IdleOne> jason_:  you here?
[07:59] <Vashypooh> everything <1ms
[07:59] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  ok did you specify ssh in putty?
[07:59] <crouton> jsestri2: back?
[07:59] <Vashypooh> yes
[07:59] <intelikey> Vashypooh sshd running ?
[07:59] <jdumont> i fired it (gnomemeeting) under suse today and said, "ummm maybe another time"
[08:00] <jsestri2> crouton: yeah, i missspelled your name a second ago...Thanks a bunch! I am talking via X-Chat!
[08:00] <crouton> jsestri2: X-chat? That's a Gnome app... you got X working?
[08:00] <Vashypooh> oops ;x i find out what is wrong lmao
[08:00] <Vashypooh> im dumb ^^;;
[08:00] <Vashypooh> i typed <IP_ADDRESS> instead of <IP_ADDRESS> ;x
[08:00] <wastrel> cool :]
[08:00] <jsestri2> crouton: you wouldnt have any clues as to where to go with onboard sound...that was causing issues at the "starting hotplug subsystem" stage of startup
[08:00] <thelsdj> hmm trying to compile something that is complaining about not finding X11/StringDefs.h and such, i installed the xorg dev package but doesn't seem to have that file?
[08:00] <Vashypooh> lol thanks for dealing with my stupidity
[08:01] <thelsdj> do i need xlibs-dev also?
[08:01] <`JD> Wastrel, it didnt work
[08:01] <crouton> jsestri2: not really sure, does the sound device show up if you do 'lspci'?
[08:01] <thelsdj> ah that must be it
[08:01] <jsestri2> crouton: trying...
[08:01] <Vashypooh> is it possible to login to X like this? or just this
[08:02] <wastrel> `JD:  did you copy the conf file you changed over to /etc/X11/xorg.conf  (keeping a backup of the origial xorg.conf , of course)
[08:02] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  that's what VNC is for
[08:02] <Vashypooh> I see
[08:02] <crouton> jsestri2: so it was the hotplug that was preventing Xorg from running successfully?
[08:02] <wastrel> !vnc
[08:02] <ubotu> well, vnc is http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-36715.html http://www.tightvnc.com/docs.html
[08:02] <jdumont> is remote desktop similair to vnc?
[08:02] <iceman> can you apt-get vnc ?
[08:03] <jsestri2> crouton: no...i have been running the on-board sound disabled since we started talking
[08:03] <wastrel> jdumont:  i don't know what remote desktop is :]
[08:03] <`JD> I edit xorg.conf directly, I still have the back up
[08:03] <crouton> jsestri2: Ahh. Interesting.
[08:03] <Xenguy> iceman: yep
[08:03] <jsestri2> crouton: the xorg stuff was fixed with the reconfigure you suggested
[08:03] <wastrel> `JD:  and you restarted after changing it?
[08:03] <intelikey> wastrel caution.  if there is an xorg.conf in the $PWD and you run startx it will read that one rather than the one in /etc/X11/    i had a big fight with that the other day.
[08:03] <Vashypooh> iceman that didnt work
[08:03] <jdumont> well i'm scouring my install and came across remote desktop
[08:03] <crouton> jsestri2: Excellent, that's good news.
[08:03] <iceman> Xenguy apt-get what ?
[08:03] <jsestri2> crouton: I have now moved onto trying to get it to work wtih my on-board sound
[08:03] <wastrel> intelikey:  i don't think he knows the startx command but thx for the tip :]
[08:04] <jdumont> i'll fire up xp and see if i can login to remote desktop
[08:04] <jsestri2> crouton: it dosent show up under lspci (i'd assume because its not enabled)
[08:04] <iceman> sorry, samba cant see it, vnc will let me log in and xfer the dockuments i need
[08:04] <`JD> Oh wait. No i didnt...
[08:04] <Xenguy> iceman: dpkg -l vnc*
[08:04] <Xenguy> iceman: will show you what is available
[08:04] <iceman> whats the name for linux-vnc ?
[08:04] <jdumont> ahhhhh kvm switches......
[08:04] <`JD> Its set to read only wtf?
[08:04] <wastrel> !vnc
[08:04] <ubotu> from memory, vnc is http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-36715.html http://www.tightvnc.com/docs.html
[08:04] <iceman> Xgenguy thanks
[08:04] <Xenguy> iceman: yw
[08:04] <jsestri2> crouton: when i say its not enabled, i mean i have disabled the onboard sound via BIOS
[08:05] <Vashypooh> that obotu vnc stuff its sending doesnt seem to be too usefull to me
[08:05] <crouton> jsestri2: That'd be correct.  Is it the standard AC97 or is it something else (Realtek or maybe Creative)?
[08:05] <RichART1> how do i UNinstall ubuntu?
[08:05] <iceman> No packages found matching vnc#.
[08:05] <Xenguy> RichART1: you can't...
[08:05] <wastrel> `JD:  you have to use sudo to edit the xorg.conf file.  that's why i suggested editing the one you downloaded and then copying it over with  sudo cp , like you did before
[08:05] <Xenguy> RichART1: that's part of the beauty of it all :-)
[08:05] <jsestri2> crouton: i'm pretty sure its Realtek
[08:06] <intelikey> RichART1 are you planing on using the partition/s or making new ones ?
[08:06] <crouton> jsestri2: Might as well enable it and check the lspci output when you reboot, that's the first step
[08:06] <Vashypooh> wastrel, where do i find vnc that i need to install for this
[08:06] <glick> sweet i finally have a decent desktop
[08:06] <`JD> oh ok
[08:06] <jsestri2> crouton: assuming nothing has changed with that, I cannot boot...it hangs the start-up at the "starting hotplug subsystem" step
[08:06] <iceman> lol now i got to find my winvnc cd ..
[08:07] <jsestri2> crouton: and I am not able to Ctrl+c it
[08:07] <wastrel> tightvncserver   and you'll need tightvnc viewer on windows
[08:07] <Vashypooh> that link obotu thing gave was all about redhat
[08:08] <djs_2_6> IdleOne - Followed all of the commands, and now have 2 problems.  1) I am getting an error when trying to start firefox saying that Firefox is already running but not responding...
[08:08] <crouton> jsestri2: Ah, right.
[08:08] <flodine> anyone running the new e17
[08:08] <Xenguy> iceman: here's a possibly better/different list: apt-cache search vnc |grep vnc
[08:08] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  yeah sorry it does appear useless that ubotu info ;]
[08:08] <djs_2_6> IdleOne - 2) My bookmarks are now gone...
[08:08] <intelikey> RichART1 if you are going to use the linux partition/s simple wat is mkfs.ext3 the partition.  else  c/fdisk  is the answer.     but be advised that if you use grub you may not be able to boot after such actions.
[08:08] <Vashypooh> synaptic is showing a VNC-Common package
[08:09] <crouton> jsestri2: You could pass 'nohotplug' as an option when you boot.  You aware of how to do that (with GRUB)?
[08:09] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  i think either vncserver or tightvncserver are what you want
[08:09] <jsestri2> no...
[08:09] <jsestri2> crouton: no
[08:09] <wastrel> i believe tightvncserver is a bit faster
[08:09] <Vashypooh> it lists vnc-common as Virtual network computing server software
[08:09] <Vashypooh> im not seeing tightvnc under synaptic
[08:09] <Xenguy> tight server and client are good
[08:10] <crouton> jsestri2: When the computer boots, press Esc, then hit 'e' to edit the preferred boot image, get down to where you see the line starting with 'kernel'
[08:10] <Xenguy> Vashypooh: you may need to enable the uni/multiverse repos
[08:10] <skwashd> hi
[08:10] <crouton> jsestri2: Add 'nohotplug' to the end of that line, and hit Enter.  You dont' want to hit 'b' to boot, but Return to boot with the changes you just made.
[08:10] <skwashd> i am trying to the fglrx drivers working with dapper on a dell d810 with a X600
[08:10] <thelsdj> hmmm no ffmpeg-dev package in dapper
[08:10] <Vashypooh> yeah i just did that, its rebuilding
[08:11] <skwashd> but no matter what i do it keeps on using mesa ... any ideas ?
[08:11] <jsestri2> crouton: alright cool, I'll brb after trying that out...
[08:11] <crouton> jsestri2: ok
[08:11] <djs_2_6> !ff1.5
[08:11] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[08:11] <Vashypooh> there it is, Tight VNCserver?
[08:11] <Xenguy> Vashypooh: nod
[08:11] <skwashd> btw i am running dapper with all updates loaded until about 20mins ago ... using 2.6.15-14 kernel so wine isn't broken
[08:12] <intelikey> skwashd it's probably not an option for you but; remove mesa ?
[08:12] <iceman> what do i type to install a run file shoot ./ does not work
[08:12] <Vashypooh> ok, now what was the windows software?
[08:12] <skwashd> intelikey: not really ... as next on the list is xgl :)
[08:12] <Xenguy> iceman: you are root?

[08:13] <wastrel> iceman:  is it executable?
[08:13] <wastrel> iceman:  what does  file et-linux-2.56-2.x86.run  say?
[08:13] <intelikey> iceman sh file
[08:13] <iceman> Xenguy cannot sudo it ...
[08:13] <iceman> sh/et-linux-2.56-2.x86.run: command not found
[08:13] <jdumont> YAY!  I can remote access the xp box via terminal server client.

[08:14] <intelikey> what is the error ?
[08:14] <iceman> ./et-linux-2.56-2.x86.run: Permission denied
[08:14] <Vashypooh> how do i setup and configure tightvnc on the linux machine, or was that automatic
[08:14] <Xenguy> iceman: it's permissions
[08:14] <crouton> file permissions - check output of ls -al
[08:14] <wastrel> iceburgh:  ls -l et-linux-2.56-2.x86.run:
[08:14] <djs_2_6> Hey guys, my upgrade to Firefox 1.5 has an error message - Firefox is already running but not responding...
[08:14] <intelikey> iceman  ls -l et-linux-2.56-2.x86.run
[08:14] <iceman> Xenguy how to get premission ?
[08:15] <crouton> chmod
[08:15] <crouton> !chmod
[08:15] <ubotu> hmm... chmod is a command used to change the permissions of a file or folder. see `man chmod` for a synopsis.
[08:15] <Vashypooh> search for any process runing djs for it
[08:15] <jdumont> where can i upload a file here?  if anyone wants to see my desktop.
[08:15] <Vashypooh> killall -l
[08:15] <Vashypooh> see if u see it
[08:15] <ba> yay! loudblog theme done! http://loudblog.nerdxcore.net
[08:15] <jsestri2> crouton: sorry, where do i add the nohotplug?
[08:15] <wisie> Hey lads, can anyone make anything out of this 'http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8844'
[08:15] <ba> shit! wrong windows
[08:15] <wastrel> !pastebin
[08:15] <crouton> jdumont: Text or Image
[08:15] <ubotu> I guess pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)

[08:16] <djs_2_6> Vashypooh - I do not see any process named firefox or mozilla in my system monitor list of processes...
[08:16] <iceman> dang this file
[08:16] <Vashypooh> hrm
[08:16] <Vashypooh> try restarting the machine
[08:16] <jsestri2> crouton: alright...be back in a few
[08:16] <intelikey> iceman i told you      sh et-linux-2.56-2.x86.run
[08:16] <crouton> iceman: sudo chmod 755 et-linux-blahblah
[08:16] <OmegaAlpha> is it possible to install linux on an external hd?
[08:17] <intelikey> crouton no sudo needed he owns it
[08:17] <crouton> intelikey: he can't execute it
[08:17] <wastrel> OmegaAlpha:  will your bios let you boot with an external HD?
[08:17] <bigfoot1> xnull-: did you see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d8843
[08:17] <wastrel> crouton:  it's a shell script
[08:17] <intelikey> crouton he can chmod without sudo because he owns the file.
[08:17] <OmegaAlpha> wastrel, from what i've seen in the boot order. its not listed...
[08:17] <crouton> intelikey: ah. right
[08:17] <iceman> finaly thanks
[08:17] <crouton> just habit
[08:18] <`JD> I'm stuck
[08:18] <intelikey> crouton also using  sh <file> will execute non executable files.
[08:19] <Vashypooh> wastrel: when i tried to run vncserver, im getting font errors
[08:19] <damian_> how do i automatically mount //5kfs/media upon booting its a windows folder
[08:19] <crouton> intelikey: right, but he said it wasn't working.
[08:19] <wastrel> damian_:  add it to /etc/fstab
[08:19] <intelikey> damian_ edit /etc/fstab
[08:19] <damian_> i know that part whats the command
[08:19] <biovore> damian_: you mounting a samba share on a winbox?
[08:19] <damian_> sorry wasnt more clear
[08:19] <damian_> yes
[08:19] <`JD> watrel: Should this work?
[08:19] <`JD> *wastrel
[08:19] <`JD> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8845
[08:20] <intelikey> crouton if  sh file  wont work then chmod wont help
[08:20] <crouton> damian_:  not a command, look at /etc/fstab
[08:20] <crouton> intelikey: so what fixed it, as I don't see him talking about it now.
[08:20] <Vashypooh> Couldn't start Xtightvnc; trying default font path.
[08:20] <Vashypooh> Please set correct fontPath in the vncserver script.
[08:20] <Vashypooh> Couldn't start Xtightvnc process.
[08:20] <damian_> i can access it from the places menu but i cant read files straight off the drive eg an mp3 or a video
[08:20] <intelikey> ask him.
[08:20] <crouton> iceman: what fixed the et script?
[08:21] <lhoerste> does anyone have this old ubuntu desktop: http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=305&slide=28 ?
[08:21] <damian_> so i can just mount //5kfs/media with -t samba or something
[08:21] <wisie> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8844
[08:21] <wisie> Anyone? :)
[08:21] <intelikey> crouton it seems that iceman is too busy playing games to mess with us anymore......   :)
[08:21] <biovore> damian_: add the following line to your fstab
[08:21] <wastrel> `JD:  i thought you wanted 1024x768 ?  maybe your monitor won't support that resolution
[08:21] <crouton> wisie: did you already set the password?
[08:21] <`JD> I do ihoerste
[08:21] <crouton> intelikey: highly likely
[08:22] <`JD> So I should go down a couple?
[08:22] <jdumont> oh oh... i vnc'd into myself
[08:22] <biovore> .  //<IP_ADDRESS>/movies /mnt/movies smbfs noauto,user,user,username=guest,password=password 0
[08:22] <biovore> as an example
[08:22] <crouton> jdumont: get the endless hall of mirrors? :)
[08:22] <OmegaAlpha> wastrel, is the only way to use linux on ext hd. is if it is able to boot from the BIOS?
[08:22] <biovore> (minus the . in the begining)
[08:22] <jdumont> heh...yup
[08:22] <wisie> crouton: Nope I havnt yet, thats the weird thing :/
[08:22] <damian_> oh i get it smbfs
[08:22] <damian_> stanks
[08:23] <damian_> thanks
[08:23] <biovore> try google next time
[08:23] <Vashypooh> wastrel: any idea of how to fix this?
[08:23] <iceman> This installation doesn't support glibc-2.0 on Linux / x86_64
[08:23] <iceman> (tried to run setup)
[08:23] <jdumont> you mean i spent half a day trying to get vnc to work and here it is already installed by default!  <sigh>
[08:23] <biovore> it knows all
[08:23] <wastrel> OmegaAlpha:  i dunno...
[08:23] <iceman> how to fix that error
[08:23] <crouton> haha
[08:23] <biovore> iceman: what you installing?
[08:23] <iceman> oh 64 bit ...
[08:23] <Xenguy> hehe
[08:23] <iceman> Enemy territory on a 64 bit linux install ... dang
[08:24] <crouton> wisie: does mysqladmin alone do anything?
[08:24] <biovore> iceman: there is a amd64 bin
[08:24] <intelikey> iceman maybe in a 32bit chroot ?
[08:24] <biovore> iceman: or run it with linux32 (its a package in apt)
[08:24] <jsestri2> crouton: i can't get that command to stick
[08:24] <damian_> this place knows all
[08:24] <damian_> and alot quicker than google
[08:24] <damian_> :)
[08:24] <iceman> looks like ill have to install 32 bit chrood ... or just install 32 bit linux
[08:25] <wisie> crouton: brings up a list of commands, i might give it a look :)
[08:25] <jdumont> i'll see if logging off solves the house of mirrors.
[08:25] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  sorry i don't know
[08:25] <jsestri2> crouton: i edit it, and it appears to stay, and then i back up and boot my kernel, but it drops the nohotplug part of it
[08:25] <biovore> iceman: look around.. I think there is a amd64 bin for RTCW
[08:25] <crouton> jsestri2: you can't backup
[08:25] <intelikey> google is now officially obsolete    lol
[08:25] <Vashypooh> ;/
[08:25] <crouton> jsestri2: that's why you hit Enter to use the edit
[08:25] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  take a look at the config file for your vnc server - what does the fontpath say?
[08:25] <Vashypooh> where do i find the config file for it
[08:25] <damian_> for certain things it is
[08:25] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  there are font lines in your xorg.conf file - you may be able to figure out what to change it to
[08:25] <iceman> biovore have not seen one .
[08:25] <jsestri2> crouton: ooo, i guess i misread what you said. You said not to use b, but if i use enter is all good?
[08:26] <djs_2_6> How can I get a list of the running processes in a terminal window?
[08:26] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  probably /etc/xvncserver or something...
[08:26] <crouton> wisie: you could try 'mysql -u root mysql'
[08:26] <Madpilot> djs_2_6: top
[08:26] <intelikey> djs_2_6 ps
[08:26] <crouton> jsestri2: Yeah, don't back up and don't hit b.  Just make the edit and hit Enter to boot with those edits
[08:26] <apakatt_2> djs_2_6: top
[08:26] <jsestri2> djs_2_6: ps -A
[08:26] <intelikey> djs_2_6 man ps    even.
[08:26] <jsestri2> crouton: alright i'll get that going then
[08:26] <heliotrope> what are the differences between ubuntu and kubuntu?
[08:26] <jdumont> nope... all i did was close the terminal
[08:27] <timfrost> jsestri2, you may need to add nohotplug to the default parameters in /boot/grub/menu.list
[08:27] <damian_> biovore do i have to include a username and password it dosent have one can i delete those parts?
[08:27] <crouton> man? what, rtfm? that's unheard of!
[08:27] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  /etc/vnc.conf
[08:27] <Xenguy> heliotrope: desktop managers
[08:27] <apakatt_2> heliotrope: ubuntu runs gnome and kubuntu kde
[08:27] <biovore> damian_: you don't need it for guest, anon access
[08:27] <heliotrope> apakatt_2, whats the difference between gnome and kde?
[08:27] <Vashypooh> every line of the file is comented out
[08:28] <Xenguy> heliotrope: google kde gnome screenshot
[08:28] <biovore> actual kubuntu can run gnome and vis versa
[08:28] <intelikey> timfrost or kick hotplug out of rcS.d even
[08:28] <trooper00> i can't seem to get any sound out of gaim but nothing else is having a problem. is there a simple workaround? for example, what command could i run to play the sounds?
[08:28] <apakatt_2> heliotrope: as they said, google pictures. its different desktopmanagers
[08:29] <iceman> think i'll toast 64 bit install, and run 32 bit
[08:29] <damian_> better idea how it the places menu accessing them can i make that read write
[08:29] <iceman> as bad as i hate to
[08:29] <intelikey> biovore yes  in fact i always remove ubuntu-base
[08:29] <jdumont> can i have your 64bit?
[08:29] <damian_> or in guest access can i load files straight off the server?
[08:29] <iceman> anyone have the 32 bit chroot link to install instructions
[08:29] <crouton> oy.
[08:29] <timfrost> !chroot
[08:29] <ubotu> it has been said that chroot is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575
[08:29] <Vashypooh> should i uncoment this shit?
[08:29] <crouton> timfrost: That's what I was trying to get him to do
[08:30] <iceman> Cost me 200 to build this 64 bit box ....
[08:30] <Tallia1Kubuntu> guys... anyone knows how to use VOB files in mplayer?
[08:30] <timfrost> crouton, did you *actually* advise what edit to make to menu.lst?
[08:30] <biovore> iceman: There is a method to get RCTW working..
[08:31] <jdumont> oh great... i only have ONE salvageable cdrw disk and it has suse boot image on it.  I spent 2 hours trying to find the proper ftp server to install it.  <sigh>
[08:31] <Tallia1Kubuntu> when i play one, it appears the dvd menu in which i can't click!!! :(
[08:31] <biovore> iceman: Its a ugly hack though..
[08:31] <iceman> biovore other than 32 bit chroot ?
[08:31] <Ashex> I seem to be having trouble connecting to the internet, even though during the final stage of install Ubuntu was able to connect to the server and download updates
[08:31] <biovore> yup
[08:31] <crouton> timfrost: I told him how to make the temporary change to GRUB at boot
[08:31] <crouton> timfrost: Since he's trying to figure out why his onboard sound is hanging his system during boot
[08:32] <iceman> biovore think i'll try chroot ...
[08:32] <biovore> http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-27879.html
[08:32] <biovore> its for FC3
[08:32] <biovore> but should work on ubuntu
[08:32] <jdumont> finally realized that opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0..... is different that sl-10.0.....

[08:32] <crouton> Jedrick: You overwrote your MBR.
[08:33] <Jedrick> is there anyway to recover my ubuntu?
[08:33] <lhoerste> anyone got a 1280x1024 or same ratio version of this wallpaper: http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=305&slide=28 ?
[08:33] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  sorry i don't know, i don't actually run VNC - i thought the package would work...
[08:33] <jsestri2> crouton: hmm, Enter doesn't do anything for me...I tried b, and nohotplug was there on the command line, however it still attempted to start the nohotplug subsystem...ideas?
[08:33] <Jedrick> i mean any other way
[08:33] <jdumont> did you install an install cd or maybe a live cd?
[08:33] <RancidLM> hey all.. i got a usbdrive that i needa re-partition.. im using the dismanager.. but in unable to add delete partitions.. how do i enable this feature?.. because i needa repartition this usb jumpdrive
[08:33] <intelikey> Jedrick cause M$ is too dumb to duel boot maybe ?    but at any rate you just need to reinstall grub/lilo
[08:33] <`JD> >:(
[08:33] <`JD> Still wont work
[08:34] <crouton> jsestri2: Hmm. That's weird.
[08:34] <`JD> I set it to 1024x782 and it still wont work wastrek
[08:34] <lhoerste> `JD: can you post that wallpaper on imageshack.us or soemthing?
[08:34] <`JD> *wastrel
[08:34] <Ashex> RancidLM: what do you need to repartition for?
[08:34] <`JD> Yeah sure
[08:34] <lhoerste> ty
[08:34] <damian_> wats wrong here   damian@ubuntu-damian:~$ sudo mount //<IP_ADDRESS>/media /mnt/media -t smbfs
[08:34] <Jedrick> crouton: how can i get my ubuntu back without re installing and damaging any data

[08:49] <glick> good thing i asked first
[08:49] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  looks like you need to turn in xdmcp in inet.conf
[08:50] <Vashypooh> inetd.conf same thing?
[08:50] <intelikey> glick usually configuring x is done without anything else running.... or as little as possabel.
[08:50] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  page 7 of that thread
[08:50] <wastrel> Vashypooh:  my mistake, inetd.conf
[08:50] <glick> intelikey, ahh
[08:52] <tuxcicles> nicholas, if you are using gdm, you could tell it to start an xsession session

[08:56] <wisie> guys ive missed something with setting up php
[08:56] <wisie> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8846 do any of you know what I could of missed?
[08:56] <jsestri2> intelikey: the startup hangs at "starting hotplug subsystem" if my onboard Realtek audio is enabled
[08:57] <intelikey> jsestri2 oh you are not trying to get sound working... you are trying to get init booted.   ok.
[08:57] <Vashypooh> sudo /etc/init.d/inetd restart doesnt do anything
[08:57] <MaxeyPad> just curious, but what effect will google's support for google have directly? Are they funding R&D now or what exactly
[08:58] <intelikey> jsestri2 which do you want to use   hotplug  or  the onboard sound ?      and if you say both, then get someone else to help ya fix it :)
[08:59] <jsestri2> intelikey: well, from what i've been told, turning off hotplug is a bad decision except for trying things out, so i guess the answer is both
[08:59] <jsestri2> intelikey: would you know how to boot without starting the hotplug subsystem?
[09:01] <intelikey> sure, jsestri2 access the linux / (a live cd can do that)  and move the symlink out of /etc/rcS.d/    i.e.  mv /mnt/etc/rcS.d/S??hotplug* /mnt/root/    then boot.
[09:02] <lhoerste> jsestri2: there are ways to use udev to do everything that hotplug does. but i dont know if it can be done in ubuntu
[09:02] <jsestri2> intelikey: oh, the other guy i was talking to suggested adding something to the command line in GRUB for booting the kernel
[09:02] <n00bmaste> will ubuntu run on my p1 with 30 megs of ram and with an isa network card
[09:03] <Vashypooh> lol maybe

[09:03] <n00bmaste> I know
[09:03] <Prohibited> How can I change it back, "sudo" doesn't work at all :(
[09:03] <intelikey> jsestri2 yeah, i don't think it will help to add an arg to the kernel  it is init that is loading it.
[09:04] <wastrel> Prohibited:  you should boot from a rescue disk and change it back
[09:04] <intelikey> but it "might" work.   nohotplug   added to the kernel line.
[09:04] <fangorious> Prohibited: boot in single user mode to get a root shell, then fix it from there
[09:04] <wastrel> or that
[09:04] <zphinx> anyone?
[09:05] <wastrel> heh forgot about the convenient rescue mode ubuntu installs in the grub menu
[09:05] <fangorious> zphinx: no ipv6 here
[09:05] <Prohibited> wastrel- I dunno how to do that (i'm a noob?) -- Fangorious- I tried that, I need "sudo" to change it though, sudo won't work at all.

[09:27] <intelikey> 'night.
[09:28] <wastrel> how do i set something to run on boot?
[09:28] <fangorious> brosioz: you may want to scan to see if anything was obviously truncated I just chose 256 randomly as it seems like it should be big enough
[09:28] <djs_2_6> Hey all, what was the default font in Firefox 1.0.7?
[09:28] <graveson> djs - i think it is breezy version 5.10
[09:29] <Prohibited> Okay, I need to have a program start up on boot up. How do I manage to do that?
[09:29] <graveson> wastrel: do i need to need a prompt
[09:29] <graveson> how do i stop the X server from starting up to do that
[09:30] <lhoerste> does ubuntu have a magical way to detect when I have a tv plugged into my computer as well or do i have to set up the xorg.conf manually?
[09:30] <fangorious> Prohibited: it depends on when in the boot sequence you want it to run
[09:30] <rabeldable> has anyone ever used mute for file sharing?
[09:30] <wastrel> graveson:  open a terminal window
[09:30] <chunkahoy> fangorious : do you have any idea why ./configure isn't working ?
[09:31] <fangorious> chunkahoy: because for the kernel you're supposed to use 'make config', 'make menuconfig', or 'make xconfig'
[09:31] <chunkahoy> ok, sorry if those are dumb questions, im pretty new to linux
[09:31] <chunkahoy> thanks for your help
[09:31] <zebraFusion> how can I tell what video drivers I'm using
[09:31] <fangorious> chunkahoy: np
[09:32] <graveson> wastrel - i cannot get to a terminal window as the login prompt appears and then the system hangs.i need to break out of the login prompt
[09:32] <graveson> djs - any ideas
[09:32] <wastrel> graveson:  ctrl-alt-backspace maybe
[09:32] <wastrel> graveson:  or ctrl-alt-f1
[09:32] <Fub> how do I stop a kernel module from being loaded?
[09:32] <wastrel> Fub:  take it out of /etc/modules maybe
[09:33] <Fub> hmm
[09:33] <Fub> not there:(
[09:34] <wastrel> Fub:  what module?
[09:34] <Fub> ac97 (sound card)
[09:34] <fangorious> Fub: /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[09:34] <Hivemind> (<- Newbie) Hello everyone. I had to reinstall WinXP and now GRUB doesn't work. I tried using the CD to install grub, after activating rescue mode (as an online guide suggested), but that did not work. Any ideas?
[09:34] <Fub> fangorious, thanks:)
[09:34] <djs_2_6> graveson - did you use the grub loader?
[09:35] <zebraFusion> How can I install the fglrx drivers for my ATI video card
[09:35] <graveson> djs - yes
[09:35] <fangorious> man, that probably would have worked for jsestri too. but he appears to be gone
[09:35] <djs_2_6> graveson - when you first boot up it gives you the option of accessing the loader.  I think you can get to an emergency mode and you should be able to get a terminal from there...

[09:36] <graveson> djs - thanx how do i reconfigure the X-server from there
[09:36] <wastrel> !fglrx
[09:36] <ubotu> rumour has it, fglrx is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:37] <wastrel> graveson:  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  maybe
[09:37] <fangorious> graveson: djs_2_6: from the grub menu, hit 'e' on the OS you want to boot, select the kernel line, hit 'e', add 's' to the end, hit enter, hit 'b' to boot. root shell in single user mode!
[09:37] <fangorious> graveson: you could run 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'

[09:38] <Protocol1> this is pretty weird.....my windws can get on the internet with this low signal
[09:39] <Protocol1> but my ubutu has trouble getting an ip
[09:39] <fangorious> it's really odd how many times i've told how to boot in single-user mode in the last 4 days
[09:39] <Protocol1> it can see the wireless with gtkwifi but thats about it
[09:39] <wastrel> different drivers...
[09:39] <Protocol1> true
[09:40] <djs_2_6> fangorious - do you by chance know what the default font was in Firefox 1.0.7?
[09:41] <No1Viking> How do I check a disk, if it's ok without bad blocks etc?
[09:41] <fangorious> djs_2_6: "serif"
[09:42] <synth> hey, i installed ubuntu w/evms and md raid on 3 WD 120gb's - on 2 Promise Ultra133 cards - each on its own cable
[09:42] <synth> ive got a failing drive, should i just yank it and replace it with one of the same?
[09:42] <Protocol1> im enjoying broadband internet while I have it
[09:42] <synth> or are there things ineed to do to remove the drive from the software setup before i physically replace it
[09:43] <synth> i dont want to screw myself now that ive setup raid heh
[09:43] <No1Viking> How do I check a disk, if it's ok without bad blocks etc?
[09:43] <fangorious> No1Viking: fsck /dev/<device>
[09:43] <fabian> is this a good place to ask questions about partman problems when installing ubuntu 5.10?
[09:44] <wastrel> my postfix is b0rked
[09:44] <Protocol1> i just cant wait to get clearwire service
[09:44] <fangorious> wastrel: give it some meatballs
[09:45] <fangorious> fabian: couldn't hurt to ask here
[09:46] <fangorious> fabian: although the mailing list and ubuntuforums.org would probably get more visibility
[09:46] <fabian> ok, so I had a 5.04 installed without a problem, I burned a new 5.10 and tried to install it. I have windows on /dev/hda1 which I didn't touch, and /, /boot and swap I re-formatted
[09:47] <fabian> however i also have a primary /dev/hda3 in fat16 I didn't even know I had, and it gives me errors on that partition
[09:47] <fabian> after formatting the first three
[09:47] <krz> ubuntu doesnt have sshd??
[09:47] <krz> in /etc/init.d/ ?
[09:47] <maihem> I think I have a bug, but it may just be a misconfiguration. I set the Gamma of my screen in the xorg configuration, and now all the GTK widget backgrounds and all the icons are pale. Is there a way to configure gtk to assume a gamma of 1.0 (since the X server is performing the adjustment), the font rendering already assumes a gamma of 1.0 (which is why I set my X server to adjust).
[09:47] <fangorious> krz: openssh-server might be the package name
[09:48] <fabian> partman says "A bug was discovered!". When I say "ignore" (/dev/hda3 shouldn't be used for linux, apriori), it starts installing the packages, but then it crashes in the middle of the base system installation
[09:48] <fabian> that is strange because gentoo and breezy installed without a problem
[09:49] <fabian> (and now of course grub is broken so windows and linux won't load anymore ;-)
[09:49] <fangorious> fabian: breezy is 5.10
[09:49] <fabian> fangorious, the 5.04 i meant
[09:50] <fangorious> fabian: hm, you probably boot the livecd to restore grub. or you could boot the windows (2k or xp) cd to run fixmbr and fixboot to get windows booting
[09:51] <pinkpanther> how do I manually uninstall something?
[09:51] <wastrel> what are you uninstalling
[09:51] <fabian> fangorious, do you have any pointer to instructions?
[09:51] <pinkpanther> Berkeley DB
[09:51] <fangorious> fabian: but as to the original problem, of the mystery partition, maybe boot a live cd to see what's on it, and delete it if it's stuff you don't care about
[09:51] <wastrel> how did you install it?
[09:51] <fangorious> fabian: instructions for which suggestion?
[09:51] <pinkpanther> through make
[09:51] <graveson> system hanging when booting up ,tried to reconfigure x-server but no change i have the breezy version of ubuntu
[09:51] <pinkpanther> I did make uninstall
[09:52] <pinkpanther> but it didn't remove it
[09:52] <fabian> fangorious, the less dangerous one? :-)
[09:52] <wastrel> heh
[09:52] <wastrel> well that was my idea
[09:52] <wastrel> pinkpanther:  there's no other uninstall targets in the makefile?
[09:52] <fangorious> fabian: if you can download the livecd and burn a copy, I would boot off that
[09:52] <tuxcicles> graveson, where is it hanging at?
[09:53] <krz> fangorious how do i get sshd to start?
[09:53] <fabian> fangorious, ok... do you think it could have anything to do with the fact that I tried to install a x86 on an amd64?
[09:53] <fangorious> fabian: then you can mount the hda3 partition (mkdir /mnt/hda3 && mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3) to see what's on it
[09:53] <fangorious> fabian: possible, but i wouldn't think so. why didn't you use the the x86_64 iso?
[09:53] <krz> how do i get sshd to start in ubuntu?
[09:54] <fabian> fangorious, I had too many problems with compilation of new software
[09:54] <fangorious> krz: sudo invoke-rc.d ssh start
[09:54] <yuri_> I have a logitech keyboard with volume buttons when i use the volume buttons it turns down the "Master" sliders. I'd like it to turn down the "PCM" sliders. any advice?
[09:54] <pinkpanther> uninstall:
[09:54] <pinkpanther> 	-cd $(bindir) && $(rm) -f $(PROGS)
[09:54] <pinkpanther> 	-cd $(includedir) && $(rm) -f db.h db_185.h db_cxx.h
[09:54] <pinkpanther> 	-cd $(libdir) && $(rm) -f $(libdb) $(libcxx) $(libso_target) $(libso) \
[09:54] <pinkpanther> 	    $(libjso) $(libjso_target) $(libtso) $(libtso_target)
[09:54] <pinkpanther> 	-cd $(docdir) && $(rm) -rf *
[09:54] <fangorious> fabian: well, x86_64 is supposed to be fully 32 bit compatible
[09:55] <pinkpanther> for some reason that part of the makefile didn't uninstall properly
[09:55] <tritium> pinkpanther: don't paste, please
[09:55] <wastrel> pinkpanther:  i assume you were superuser when you ran it?
[09:55] <pinkpanther> sorry
[09:55] <pinkpanther> yes
[09:55] <fabian> fangorious, I know I have to do some magic stuff to run in 32-bit mode and to get firefox plugins working and to get sun java etc
[09:55] <fabian> fangorious, but it will be easier to have it working directly :-)
[09:55] <maihem> fabian, is it a laptop? It could be a suspect partition, otherwise, it could be a recovery image for the original system.
[09:55] <fabian> maihem, yeah, laptop
[09:56] <tuxcicles> i was hanging up at bootup, and it turned out it was due to my buggy usb epson printer - i unplugged it and reset it  and walla - back to normal
[09:56] <maihem> s/suspect/sespend/
[09:56] <fangorious> fabian: i haven't messed with x86_64 very much
[09:56] <maihem> s/sespend/suspend/ -- buggering hell
[09:56] <fabian> maihem, the recovery partition I deleted to install linux on it :-)
[09:56] <fabian> maihem : besides, it's only 8MB
[09:57] <Cryptid> Some one please help me get and install intel 915 motherboard graphic Drivers!!!
[09:57] <fangorious> fabian: can you download/burn a livecd image to boot off of?
[09:57] <fabian> fangorious, on another computer, yes
[09:57] <yuri_> I have a logitech keyboard with volume buttons when i use the volume buttons it turns down the "Master" sliders. I'd like it to turn down the "PCM" sliders. any advice?
[09:57] <jnoon> when you use a shebang like "#!/usr/bin/env ruby", how does it figure out which ruby to use if there were one version in /usr/bin and one in /usr/local/bin?  how would you change which one its using?
[09:57] <krz_> fangorious, i get * Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server...                               [fail]
[09:57] <stjepan> hi
[09:58] <krz_> invoke-rc.d: initscript ssh, action "start" failed.
[09:58] <maihem> jnoon, when you use env, it does exactly the same thing as `which ruby`
[09:58] <krz_> why?
[09:58] <wastrel> jnoon:  i believe it uses the one that it finds first on the path
[09:58] <jnoon> oh ok
[09:58] <fangorious> fabian: that's probably your best bet. you can check out the contents of that partition that way. then re-run the install choosing to delete it if it's disposable
[09:58] <ChunkAhoy> fangorious: i get pages and pages of errors with sudo make menuconfig.       firsts lines of errors seems to be missing .h libraries than alot of compiling errors due to the missing libraries i guess.           scripts/basic/fixdep.c:105:23: sys/types.h: No such file or directory
[09:59] <ChunkAhoy> i installed all gcc packages and its still the same
[09:59] <fabian> fangorious, ok... do you think windows could need it to start up? I wouldn't think so but you never know
[09:59] <krz_> fangorious, im krz, btw. with the sshd problem
[09:59] <maihem> ChunkAhoy: install libc6-dev package
[10:00] <fangorious> fabian: i doubt it but
[10:00] <ChunkAhoy> ah,  thank you maihem,   i'll do that  :)
[10:00] <zebraFusion> 5. Another bug in the driver... And for video, there is a bug with xv, so we want to start "gstreamer-properties" and tell it not to use xv for video. (This is the same as starting "Multimedia Systems Selector", a Preferences application that is currently hidden in your menu system)
[10:00] <fabian> ok
[10:00] <zebraFusion> what does that mean, someone
[10:00] <fabian> fangorious, thanks for you help
[10:00] <Cryptid> i just bought a XFX nvidia Graphic card and i already have Ubuntu Installed when i insert the card and start Ubuntu i get some Xorg erro so how do fix this error????
[10:00] <fangorious> fabian: good luck
[10:00] <fabian> :-)
[10:00] <fangorious> krz, i'm trying to locate which logfile sshd logs to
[10:01] <RememberPOL> Why isn't Mozilla Firefox v1.5x in the Ubuntu repository?
[10:02] <maihem> Cryptid: you can try opening /etc/X11/xorg.conf using your favourite text editor (via sudo), searching for "nvidia" and replacing it with "nv". Then run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[10:02] <fangorious> zebraFusion: it means there's a bug in the driver which prevents you from using a certain video output mode
[10:02] <ploom> mm - can ext3 filesystem become fragmentated too??
[10:02] <krz_> fangorious, ok
[10:02] <maihem> RememberPOL: it is in Dapper. It was released after Breezy, so that's why it's not in there.
[10:03] <RememberPOL> maihem: Yes but why not allow current Breezy users be able to upgrade to it?
[10:03] <zebraFusion> fangorious, but it says to do something and I have no idea what
[10:03] <zebraFusion> so we want to start "gstreamer-properties" and tell it not to use xv for video. (This is the same as starting "Multimedia Systems Selector", a Preferences application that is currently hidden in your menu system)
[10:03] <wastrel> RememberPOL:  because breezy was frozen before 1.5 was released
[10:03] <fangorious> zebraFusion: on the menubar at the top of your screen you'll see "System", which has a "Preferences" sub-menu, which in turn has a "Multimedia Systems Selector" item which lets you specify the video output mode
[10:03] <zebraFusion> what does that mean
[10:03] <Cryptid> maihem, oh! so i just have to just open xorg.conf and edit it using gedit and find the word nvidia and replace it with nv??? do i have to replace all nvidias with nv???
[10:04] <maihem> RememberPOL: because whole new versions cmoe out once every siz months, so on average you only have to wait for three.
[10:04] <RememberPOL> I thought new Ubuntu versions were to feature complete new software packages and system features not just upgraded versions of the same package that could just as well be available using the Update Manager?
[10:04] <zebraFusion> fangorious, if you read the paragraph it says it's currently hidden in your menu system.
[10:04] <maihem> Cryptid: ah, gedit is not going to work in this case. try sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:04] <RememberPOL> maihem: But okay thank you. I will follow the wiki:FirefoxNewVersion instructions.
[10:04] <fangorious> zebraFusion: the program started by that menu item is 'gstreamer-properties', which you can also start by typing that into a terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal)
[10:04] <maihem> Cryptid: There is probably only one occurrence of "nvidia". It will be in the "Driver" section.
[10:05] <fangorious> zebraFusion: Are you running dapper or breezy (it shows up for me in breezy)
[10:05] <zebraFusion> fangorious, dapper.
[10:05] <krz> fangorious found anything? :)
[10:05] <fangorious> zebraFusion: Applications->Accessories->Alacarte Menu Editor, you can enable it in there
[10:05] <zebraFusion> fangorious, thanks, I got it by running the terminal command
[10:05] <fangorious> krz: not yet
[10:06] <thegladiator> how do I see my upstatus
[10:06] <thegladiator> ?
[10:06] <wastrel> fangorious, krz: /var/log/auth.log will record ssh logins...
[10:07] <Cryptid> maihem, ok so this will surely fix the problem rite and if there is ne problem can i switch back to my onboard graphic?????and do u have ne idea bout intel 915 mobo graphic drivers????
[10:07] <fangorious> wastrel: yeah, but it doesn't record the server starting/stopping, and any error messages during startup
[10:07] <fangorious> thegladiator: you mean uptime? run 'uptime' in a terminal
[10:08] <maihem> Cryptid: It is possible that it won't fix the problem. If the opensource nvidia driver (nv) doesn't support your graphics card it won't work.
[10:08] <tritium> Cryptid: did you disable the onboard video in BIOS?
[10:08] <Cryptid> maihem, i got a XFX 6600 256mb DDR card do u have ne idea if it is supported
[10:08] <maihem> Cryptid: BTW, if it already says "nv" and not "nvidia", then installing the nvidia binary packages may help (this would set the driver to "nvidia").
[10:09] <maihem> Cryptid: I don't know.
[10:09] <fangorious> brb
[10:09] <wastrel> fangorious:  it shows startup & such on my system
[10:09] <stjepan> do you know any gtk replacements for kpowersave?
[10:09] <thelsdj> hrm whats the command to see what code a key on keyboard sends?
[10:09] <graveson> system hanging when booting up into x,tried to reconfigure x-server no luck any ideas
[10:09] <Cryptid> tritium,,,  ??? noboard graphics of my mobo (D915) u talking bout,,, i have no idea i have check it out now
[10:10] <maihem> Repeating an earlier question, in case anybody has joined that knows:  I think I have a bug, but it may just be a misconfiguration. I set the Gamma of my screen in the xorg configuration, and now all the GTK widget backgrounds and all the icons are pale. Is there a way to configure gtk to assume a gamma of 1.0 (since the X server is performing the adjustment), the font rendering already assumes a gamma of 1.0 (which is wh
[10:10] <maihem> y I set my X server to adjust).
[10:11] <krz_> fangorious, when you said: sudo invoke-rc.d ssh start. you also meant for me to put my password and username?
[10:11] <krz_> im already logged in as root btw
[10:11] <maihem> GTK seems to be assuming a gamma of 2.2, giving me an effective gamma of 4.84 :/
[10:11] <maihem> I mean 0.4545454545...
[10:11] <wastrel> what's gamma?
[10:12] <maihem> wastrel: gamma curve. It is where 50 percent grey is not halfway between black and white.  So when drawn on gamma 1.0, it's too bright.
[10:14] <Corsair> is there any real harm to a HD if a pc's bios cant see its full size?
[10:14] <fangorious> krz: sudo should only need your password
[10:14] <maihem> most PC monitors have gamma 2.2. Mine now has gamma 1.0 since the X server is adjusting all pixels. This removes irritating colour artifacts from around text when using subpixel rendering for extra smooth fonts.
[10:14] <Mythri1> are there any programs out there that automatically traverse a directory tree and delete duplicate files?
[10:15] <fangorious> krz: and the default config should have sshd launching at boot
[10:15] <krz_> fangorious, maybe its already running. how do i check if this is the case?
[10:16] <wastrel> krz_:  ssh localhost
[10:16] <krz_> wastrel, i get The authenticity of host 'localhost (<IP_ADDRESS>)' can't be established.

[10:17] <Corsair> how do i see what drives are available

[10:18] <fangorious> krz: well you seem to have sshd running on your linux box now
[10:18] <Corsair> can anyone help? ;x
[10:18] <Mythri1> are there any programs out there that remove specific characters from filenames?
[10:18] <Mythri1> in an entire directory that is
[10:19] <krz> fangorious just to verify. ssh is on port 22 right?
[10:19] <carthik> Mythri1, there are renamers, search for rename in name and description in synaptic and you will find some

[10:26] <fangorious> Corsair: if it's going to be accessed over the network I would use ext3
[10:26] <Corsair> will other os's still be ok to store data onto it?
[10:26] <OmegaAlpha> Corsair, FAT32
[10:26] <fangorious> Corsair: then just share it with samba for windows machines, and nfs for linux machines
[10:26] <notos> its posible to upgrade from debian sarge to Ubuntu 5.10 ?
[10:27] <Corsair> its not letting me format it as fat32
[10:27] <mache> !windowsdrives
[10:27] <ubotu> windowsdrives is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions or see http://tinyurl.com/bly9f
[10:27] <elkbuntu> Corsair, why would you want fat32?
[10:27] <fangorious> Corsair: as long as they understand the protocol you share it with, they don't care what FS type it has
[10:27] <Corsair> ok
[10:27] <fangorious> Corsair: what OSs are you sharing it to?
[10:27] <ChunkAhoy> if i have to use ./configure --with-oss=yes --with-cards=hda-intel --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.12        to configure my kernel but i cant use ./configure, how can i do the equivalent using    make menuconfig    ??
[10:27] <Corsair> XP home, pro, 98
[10:28] <fangorious> Corsair: just set it up with ext3 and share it with samba
[10:28] <Toma-> ChunkAhoy, what are you trying to build?
[10:28] <ChunkAhoy> im following the steps on this web site to install alsa on my Asus z63a laptop         http://wingware.com/support/asus_z63a_ubuntu_5.10
[10:29] <fangorious> Corsair: you can configure the shares with System->Administration->Shared Folders
[10:29] <Corsair> yea, i know
