[07:24] <hackman2007> I'm trying to get FreeNX up and running on Ubuntu 6.10 64 bit, I got FreeNX properly installed, but when I try to remotely connect to the machine it will not start kde, because either the pathway is wrong or I do not have permission to do so. Any help?
[07:24] <Audiobahn> any1 about my prob ?
[07:24] <lazydog_> NET abuse: beats me...it's only on my NTFS RAID disc...can I turn it off? (I'm logged on as root, so it shouldn't be a question of Authority
[07:24] <osiris_> Never had a problem with nvidia before just in the feisty release
[07:24] <NET||abuse> lazydog_, internal disk? or usb or some other attached storage?
[07:25] <lazydog_> NET abuse: Internal drive
[07:25] <thirdstrike> I just installed compiz fusion, and everyhint gseems to be workingfine..The only problem is that whenever I start a fullscreen app, whetever it's a game, video etc, it starts up with an x percent opacity.... So its pretty annoying trying to play warsow when you can "see through" the game and onto your desktop
[07:25] <aabrahao> where Can I find kernel-headers-2.4.27-1-686
[07:25] <aabrahao> ?
[07:25] <lazydog_> NET abuse: SATA btw
[07:25] <thirdstrike> does anyone know where in the settings i can fix it? turn the opacity thing off
[07:26] <Gnea> thirdstrike: ask in #ubuntu-effects, they know
[07:26] <thirdstrike> thanks
[07:26] <dapiz987> after i installed the nvidia-glx drivers in feisty, after reboot, all i got was a black screen and the drums noise (geforce4 420 go)
[07:26] <colbert> Can I use a swap partition on a different drive than my ubuntu install?
[07:26] <qnyc> colbert, certainly
[07:26] <Gnea> colbert: yes.
[07:26] <colbert> ok
[07:27] <Gnea> dapiz987: does the version of nvidia-glx match the kernel driver version?
[07:27] <aa^way> hm any suggestions how to match up a string by regex and save output to file by terminal?
[07:28] <dapiz987> yes
[07:28] <Audiobahn> so 1140 members in here no idea how to kill all users ?
[07:28] <aa^way> echo $(grep -FE "^yo" "yoo") > match.txt but im not doing it right at all heh
[07:28] <lazydog_> NET abuse , any ideas?
[07:28] <Gnea> Audiobahn: probably not. what users?
[07:29] <_Ahti> do distribution upgrades generally work?
[07:29] <Audiobahn> again:  when i "uptime" is says 2 users connected, when i "who" or "users" only shows one connected, any idead why ?
[07:29] <Gnea> Audiobahn: because more than 1 person is logged in.
[07:30] <ryanakca> _Ahti: yes, between two consecutive versions
[07:30] <Gnea> or more than 1 account on more than 1 location
[07:30] <maximal_> I want to copy all the files from one user directory to another.  cp -r /home/user1 /home/user2 did mot copy the hidden files.  What flag do I need for cp?
[07:30] <`4aFkA`> how can i remove my sql database??
[07:30] <Audiobahn> noone else is connected !
[07:30] <dapiz987> _Ahti: always work for me, but its not las good as a fresh install of the new distro
[07:30] <Gnea> then it's just you
[07:30] <gordonjcp> `4aFkA`: depends what you mean "remove"
[07:30] <Audiobahn> why say 2 ppl then ?
[07:30] <ryanakca> _Ahti: you wouldn't be able to upgrade from dapper to feisty, rather, dapper -> edgy -> feisty
[07:30] <_Ahti> dapiz987: Ok
[07:30] <lazydog_> anyone who know how to not being forced to type in password  to enter RAID NTFS drives in Feisty?
[07:30] <Gnea> Audiobahn: what ttys is it reporting?
[07:30] <Audiobahn> how do i check ?
[07:30] <`4aFkA`> gordonjcp i want to delete that database
[07:30] <Gnea> who or w
[07:31] <_Ahti> ryanakca: Yep, know that much, but just wondering whether i'd end up with the exact same system as a fresh install from a CD
[07:31] <gordonjcp> `4aFkA`: do you mean "DROP DATABASE foo;" ?
[07:31] <Audiobahn> chris@LinuxBox:~$ who
[07:31] <Audiobahn> chris    pts/0        2007-06-24 18:27 (macbook.lan)

[07:32] <`4aFkA`> i want to delete it
[07:32] <Gnea> Audiobahn: thought you said it said 2 users
[07:32] <bingo> i've direct rendering: No atm, can any one help please ?
[07:32] <gordonjcp> `4aFkA`: so you'd log into the database as root, and say "DROP DATABASE joomla;"
[07:32] <Audiobahn> it does!
[07:32] <Audiobahn> lol
[07:32] <dijungal> Ubuntu + beryl ROCKS!!!
[07:32] <dijungal> just wanted to say that..
[07:32] <ryanakca> _Ahti: no, because you'd have the current packages, except the next release's version. I personally like to backup and fresh install, much safer
[07:32] <dijungal> :)
[07:32] <Gnea> Audiobahn: ok, well when you run the GUI, that counts as one login
[07:32] <Audiobahn> chris@LinuxBox:~$ uptime
[07:32] <Audiobahn>  18:28:28 up 31 days, 18:12,  2 users,  load average: 0.10, 0.04, 0.01
[07:32] <INIT_6_> I have 4 drives, I cfdisk all of them made a pri partion and put the FS type to 0xFD for auto raid. Then I turned the 4 disk into a raid. formated it with ext3. Now, if i run cfdisk it shows all freespace no partions. is that right or should I make one in here?
[07:32] <Audiobahn> i havent got a gui :)
[07:32] <_Ahti> ryanakca: Thanks, just wanted to know :)
[07:32] <Gnea> Audiobahn: so if you're ssh'd in from your mac laptop, then that'd be 2
[07:32] <ryanakca> ubotu, please tell _Ahti about clone
[07:33] <daskidude> i have an external hdd hooked up to my laptop and why doesnt ubuntu recognize it most of hte time, i have to get get it manually each time?
[07:33] <Gnea> Audiobahn: but you're logged in and typing 'uptime' :)
[07:33] <lazydog_> ubotu: ntfs
[07:33] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[07:33] <Audiobahn> but it used to say one lol
[07:33] <Gnea> that counts as a login too
[07:33] <Audiobahn> lol...
[07:34] <Gnea> Audiobahn: if you login at the console, that counts as 1 login for each terminal
[07:34] <Gnea> man
[07:34] <Gnea> this is all n00b stuff, i should give you a url to read
[07:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[07:34] <Audiobahn> well im not loged in on the pc!

[07:34] <Audiobahn> is that 2 connections ?

[07:34] <Audiobahn> no!

[07:36] <colbert> I have just formatted a drive into 3 partitions, 2 are intended as / and /home for a Feisty install i'm about to do, but I'd like to mount the drives on my Edgy right now. Can someone help?
[07:36] <Gnea> edaniel: turn it off, plug it in, turn it on
[07:36] <edaniel> Ill try that, brb
[07:37] <Audiobahn> !pastebin | Audiobahn
[07:37] <ryanakca> colbert: umm... why mount them? then you'd have to reformat them just in case something nasty got on them
[07:37] <daskidude> hmmm, i now see my external hdd, but i have my hard drive partitioned and i dont see the windows partition
[07:37] <Gnea> Audiobahn: http://www.linuxnewbieguide.org/
[07:37] <ryanakca> colbert: but, df, and then add the entries to /etc/fstab
[07:37] <ericrw> hello
[07:37] <Audiobahn> lol enx
[07:37] <Audiobahn> so np anw ?
[07:38] <colbert> ryanakca: What do you mean by that? They're formatted, just partitioned, empty.. ready for feisty to be installed on them..
[07:38] <Gnea> Audiobahn: what happens if you reboot it?
[07:38] <BloodHunter> hey
[07:38] <wietz0r> does the new ubuntu 7.04 disk still support text install ?
[07:38] <IndyGunFreak> why do people make separate partitions for / and /home, never understood that
[07:39] <Audiobahn> probably 1 user :)
[07:39] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate | wietz0r
[07:39] <ubotu> wietz0r: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[07:39] <wietz0r> IndyGunFreak: So you can switch distro and keep your files
[07:39] <preaction> IndyGunFreak: so you can clear / and still have /home
[07:39] <gordonjcp> IndyGunFreak: because that way you can reinstall without clobbering your homedirs
[07:39] <Gnea> Audiobahn: why don't you just do it and find out for sure? ;)
[07:39] <Audiobahn> but cant reboot
[07:39] <BloodHunter> i got a question :) ( iam linux newbie ok?^^ ) got ubuntu 7.04 and it installed gnome and if i want to install nvidia drivers it says i have to shutdown x server
[07:39] <preaction> IndyGunFreak: also if /home fills up it doesn't keep you from booting
[07:39] <BloodHunter> so how can i shut down gnome?
[07:39] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, well i love clobbering my /home when i reinstall..lol
[07:39] <ryanakca> IndyGunFreak: ah, well, saves from having to back up :) But I back up anyways
[07:39] <Audiobahn> reboots are pre-planned
[07:39] <Audiobahn> next one in 2 months
[07:40] <preaction> BloodHunter: did you try installing the drivers using Restricted Drivers Manager?
[07:40] <IndyGunFreak> i keep pretty good backups, so i can be back up and running in about an hour or so.
[07:40] <BloodHunter> no i didnt preaction
[07:40] <BloodHunter> thanks :)
[07:40] <Gnea> Audiobahn: no idea then
[07:40] <vox754> Everyone, If you want to create a /boot partition, make sure it is ext2 and at least 100 MB, that way you won't have issues with distribution upgrades
[07:40] <Audiobahn> enx
[07:40] <ryanakca> Audiobahn: it's a laptop... reboot, or let the battery die... it's not as if it's a server for the CIA...
[07:40] <Gnea> Audiobahn: maybe someone logged out and wtmp didn't update right
[07:40] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[07:40] <Gnea> ryanakca: it could be for the FBI

[07:45] <colbert> my fstab: http://pastebin.ca/587550   I am trying to mount the last line, I just added it and typed "sudo mount -a" but it's not mounted.. can some1 help
[07:45] <Gnea> S-_By: you need to tell windows to allow the printer to be shared out
[07:46] <ryanakca> zaggynl: you're supposed to unmount in windows too
[07:46] <zaggynl> wietz0r, I don't lose data in winxp
[07:46] <ericrw> nomic: you're looking at xscreensavers...
[07:46] <zaggynl> gotta go
[07:46] <wietz0r> zaggynl: You've been lucky
[07:46] <ericrw> nomic: jwz wrote them and "doesn't do Windows" but someone else did port them...
[07:46] <ericrw> http://tron.lir.dk/software/WinXScreensaver1.1-Install.msi
[07:46] <daskidude> i have my windows partition recognized in fstab but, i dont see it anywhere, how cna i look at it?
[07:46] <nomic> one person wrote all those screensavers?  wow
[07:46] <ericrw> nomic: there is also a port to OSX, although it crashes.
[07:47] <nomic> aha ericrw
[07:47] <ericrw> nomic: he wrote a good number of them, but many were contributed.
[07:47] <S-_By> i know but i have 3 pc with windows and 1 with ubuntu al the windows pc are connecten with the printer but my ubuntu wil not connecten
[07:47] <wietz0r> daskidude: where did you mount it ?
[07:47] <Gnea> nomic: no, different people did and they all were ported years ago
[07:47] <daskidude> wietz0r: i ran that diskmoutner thing
[07:47] <wietz0r> Can I turn off this "feature" that I type something and it isn't recognized it starts searching for the matching program ? (on the command line)
[07:47] <nomic> anyone know ... those screensavers are they written through the framebuffer?
[07:47] <ericrw> nomic:  btw, jwz wrote the mailer for Netscape 3 :P
[07:47] <wietz0r> daskidude: Is it ntfs ?
[07:47] <daskidude> yes
[07:47] <nomic> yes to my question daskidude?
[07:48] <daskidude> no, to wietz0r
[07:48] <ericrw> nomic: they're written for X11, not for the framebuffer.  Someone might've ported them, but I doubt it.
[07:48] <daskidude> wietz0r: it is an ntfs
[07:48] <wietz0r> daskidude: Do you have ntfs-3g installed ?
[07:48] <daskidude> wietz0r: i think i do, i have my ntfs external mounted and usable
[07:48] <nomic> ty all
[07:48] <ryanakca> wietz0r: umm.. probably.
[07:49] <taa> direct rendering: No can anyone help me with this (to install ati open source driver pelase ! help needed)
[07:49] <wietz0r> ryanakca: How
[07:49] <ericrw> nomic, however,  X11 can run on the framebuffer. if you really want to use xscreensavers there
[07:49] <Shaftino> Just wondering if there are audio converters, that will allow me to convert ogg to mp3?
[07:49] <OSBC> Hello everyone
[07:49] <wietz0r> Shaftino: mencoder
[07:49] <ericrw> Shaftino, yes, but don't do that.
[07:50] <Shaftino> ericrw, Why?
[07:50] <bruenig> you will lose quality for one
[07:50] <wietz0r> ericrw: Maybe he needs it for an mp3 player ?
[07:50] <Shaftino> Exactly that :)
[07:50] <bruenig> put rockbox on it
[07:50] <ericrw> it doesn't matter *why* he wants to do it
[07:50] <Shaftino> Cant get soundjuicer to extract into mp3 :(,
[07:50] <ericrw> you're gonna kill the sound.
[07:50] <Shaftino> Rockbox is poo
[07:50] <nomic> i'm just thinking of programming through the framebuffer ericrw ... i think that will be simpler than programming through x11
[07:50] <Flannel> wietz0r: I believe it's the package "command-not-found"  just remove that package.
[07:50] <GrubChub> Thanks Hacks!
[07:50] <codin> hi
[07:50] <wietz0r> Flannel: Thank you, THANK YOU
[07:51] <GrubChub> That improved performance by a multitude :)
[07:51] <OSBC> I got a problem with my usb key. When I plug it, it's not recognized. Dmesg return me errors -32 ans that's it. It's a Corsair Voyager and it works well under windows
[07:51] <tat__> why the hell does Ubuntu has decided to mount usbfs under /dev/bus/usb and not /proc/bus/usb like eevryone elese ?
[07:51] <codin> I got the latest ubuntu installer, but it taked forever to install it, why ?
[07:51] <ericrw> nomic, if you want to do easy graphics programming, I suggest SDL.   It is easy to target and will display under X11, framebuffer,  MS Windows, etc.
[07:51] <codin> I got the CD version
[07:51] <nomic> cool ericrw i have written it down
[07:51] <codin> and the graphical installer is VERY slow
[07:52] <nomic> maybe your machine is slow codin
[07:52] <OSBC> codin: if you tried with the desktop cd, try the alternate cd
[07:52] <wietz0r> codin: Because all the ubuntu installers are slow
[07:52] <ryanakca> wietz0r: dunno
[07:52] <tat__> and all the apps who use /proc/bus&/usb nedd to be patched , thsi makes totally no sence to me !
[07:52] <wietz0r> codin: except the text mode one
[07:52] <ryanakca> codin: try the alternative installer
[07:52] <nomic> i used that was fast
[07:52] <codin> what would that be ?
[07:52] <ericrw> nomic, and if you like python, pygame is the sdl wrapper for it... the code is mostly compatable with C/C++ so its great for doing rapid development, even if you will rewrite in C/C++ later
[07:52] <codin> alternate installer ?
[07:53] <nomic> codin it has 'alternate' in the filename
[07:53] <OSBC> codin: download the alternate iso instead of the desktop iso
[07:53] <codin> the machine is a P4 2.8 GHz
[07:53] <codin> how can I do it in text mode ?
[07:53] <GrubChub> http://www.ionpixel.com/browser_speed.html
[07:53] <Flannel> codin: how much RAM?
[07:53] <nomic> how much RAM codin?
[07:53] <OSBC> codin: download the alternate iso instead of the desktop iso
[07:53] <codin> 256
[07:53] <wietz0r> codin: download debian
[07:53] <nomic> ty ericrw
[07:53] <Flannel> codin: that's why it's running slow.  The liveCD is a memory hog.  Your system (once installed) will run fine though.
[07:54] <wietz0r> sup yrjan
[07:54] <codin> how can I go text mode ?
[07:54] <yrjan> wietz0r: hi wietz0r
[07:54] <OSBC> codin: alternate
[07:54] <wietz0r> codin: Download alternative installer cd, and it'll go automatically
[07:54] <codin> that means another ISO ?
[07:54] <OSBC> yep
[07:54] <codin> mm ....
[07:54] <codin> nope
[07:54] <Flannel> codin: yes.  Your desktop CD will install fine, just a smidge sluggish
[07:55] <wietz0r> "smidge"
[07:55] <codin> the desktop one does not have a text mode installer ?
[07:55] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> I want mysql to run? How=
[07:55] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> ?
[07:55] <clay_the_arc> Any1 here able to help me with an error? i'm stuck in CLI, alt+ctrl+f7 do nothing, once i type GDM it says "error while lloading shared libraries: libxau.so.6 cannot open shared object file: input/output error"
[07:55] <OSBC> Flannel: not everytime, I had to do my install with the alternate. THe desktop didn't wanted to install for a reason unknown
[07:55] <Flannel> codin: correct
[07:55] <Flannel> OSBC: For him, even slow, the desktop installer works.
[07:56] <codin> ok, thank you guys for the information
[07:56] <daskidude> i just realized that my exernal that i just mounted is only read only and i need to write to it so i can backup some stuff from my windows partition that doesnt boot into windows anymore that i can't access
[07:56] <OSBC> How can you tell ?
[07:56] <clay_the_arc> Any1 here able to help me with an error? i'm stuck in CLI, alt+ctrl+f7 do nothing, once i type GDM it says "error while lloading shared libraries: libxau.so.6 cannot open shared object file: input/output error"
[07:57] <taa> please can anyone help me to install aiglx (radeon open source ati drivers) ?
[07:57] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> it says
[07:57] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer>  * Starting MySQL database server mysqld
[07:57] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer>    ...fail!
[07:57] <wietz0r> daskidude: You need ntfs-3g
[07:57] <wietz0r> daskidude: google it
[07:57] <OSBC> Anyone knows about strange errors with usb mass storage ?
[07:58] <clay_the_arc> Any1 here able to help me with an error? i'm stuck in CLI, alt+ctrl+f7 do nothing, once i type GDM it says "error while lloading shared libraries: libxau.so.6 cannot open shared object file: input/output error"
[07:58] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> no
[07:58] <wietz0r> OSBC: Strange as in ?
[07:58] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, what did you do to your system?  You're missing a library.
[07:58] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, ubuntu won't do that by default,  you must've done something.
[07:59] <OSBC> wietz0r:  Strange as it's not recognized if I plug it while ubuntu running, but it works if I plug it before starting the computer (before grub is launched)
[07:59] <GrubChub> http://www.ionpixel.com/browser_speed.html
[07:59] <ericrw> (or your filesystem is massively corrupted ;-)
[07:59] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, it just stopped after i updated steam and firefox
[07:59] <INIT_6_> Thinking, When you go into cfdisk and create a partion and set the type and you hit write then quit. Is it still doing things to the drive when you quit? if so, Is there a way to look at the status?
[08:00] <wietz0r> OSBC: dmesg says nothing ?
[08:00] <clay_the_arc> ericrw
[08:00] <OSBC> wietz0r: he says device descriptor read/64 error -32 and device reject adress
[08:00] <clay_the_arc> i'm running xp and ubuntu dual os
[08:00] <clay_the_arc> could that cause it?
[08:00] <edaniel> I tried restarting and my USB mouse still does not work.
[08:01] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, dual boot has nothing to do with it, and steam isn't a Linux application.
[08:01] <wietz0r> OSBC: plug it in and run "rmmod ehci_hcd && rmmod uhci_hcd && modprobe ehci_hcd && modprobe uhci_hcd
[08:01] <wietz0r> that works when my external fucks up
[08:01] <OSBC> ok i tried that
[08:01] <OSBC> try*
[08:01] <fivetwentysix> How come i can't change my screen resoulution?
[08:02] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: xorg.conf
[08:02] <fivetwentysix> When i run starcraft it tells me to use 640x480 and switch to 256 colors
[08:03] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, it just stopped working
[08:03] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: then define 640x480 in your xorg.conf, run xorgcfg -textmode in a terminal
[08:04] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, did you upgrade from etch to feisty, or are you running Warty?
[08:04] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: And google around a bit before
[08:04] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, i'm on the default ubuntu 6 w/e that is
[08:04] <clay_the_arc> :|
[08:04] <fivetwentysix> bash: xorgcfg: command not found
[08:04] <sluimers> Hey there! I have problems getting my printer to work
[08:04] <nabster> hi everybody
[08:04] <sluimers> Can someone help me with that?
[08:05] <sluimers> to work in Ubuntu that is of course.
[08:05] <Cromag> !ask
[08:05] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[08:05] <sluimers> !ask
[08:05] <nabster> is there en extra ubuntustudio chan?
[08:05] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, you can try 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' to see if you have an incomplete upgrade.
[08:05] <clay_the_arc> ericrw
[08:05] <clay_the_arc> i don'thave an internet connection
[08:06] <Cromag> funny
[08:06] <clay_the_arc> i was downloading drivers for my modem
[08:06] <OSBC> wietz0r: nope, don't work. I get the errors -32
[08:06] <clay_the_arc> uploading to my ext HDD
[08:06] <fivetwentysix> wietz0r command not found
[08:06] <clay_the_arc> then when i restarted, it was in CLI
[08:06] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, modems don't need drivers -- unless you have a win-modem, in which case - don't bother
[08:06] <wietz0r> OSBC: what is the entire error ?
[08:06] <daskidude> i accidently mounted it to a bad place, how can i undo that?
[08:06] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, i need gnome PPP rather, not nessecarily drivers
[08:06] <wietz0r> daskidude: umount /path/to/mountspot
[08:07] <paritosh_> are there any good repositories for feisty? i cant find even the most trivial software on my enabled repositories..
[08:07] <wietz0r> daskidude: or umount /dev/to/devices
[08:07] <wietz0r> paritosh_: As in?
[08:07] <OSBC> wietz0r: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27047/
[08:07] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, what device is your root filesystem on?
[08:07] <wietz0r> paritosh_: Did you enable universe multiverse etcetera
[08:07] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, ext3
[08:07] <ericrw> *device*
[08:07] <paritosh_> wietz0r: mp3 codecs, opera
[08:07] <cafe_> !iso
[08:07] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[08:07] <wietz0r> paritosh_: google ubuntuguide
[08:08] <paritosh_> wietz0r: yeah all the repos except source code are enabled
[08:08] <daskidude> wietz0r: it keeps telling me:  unmount: command not found
[08:08] <ZeroXR> sudo umount
[08:08] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, /dev/hda*, /dev/sda*, etc?
[08:08] <OSBC> daskidude: umount not unmount
[08:08] <ZeroXR> not unmount
[08:08] <wietz0r> daskidude: there is no N in umount
[08:08] <clay_the_arc> oh
[08:08] <clay_the_arc> hda
[08:08] <daskidude> wietz0r: oh, lol
[08:08] <ericrw> run:  sudo badblocks -sv /dev/hda
[08:08] <wietz0r> OSBC: rmmod ehci_hcd and replug it ?
[08:08] <OSBC> wietz0r: there is a N < umouNt > :p
[08:08] <taa> no one knows how to install radeon open source drivers ?
[08:08] <ericrw> let it run for a few hours, see if it returns anything.
[08:09] <fivetwentysix> wietz0r what should i do theres no xorgcfg command
[08:09] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, its hda
[08:09] <ferronica> how can i find my posted messages in ubuntu forums ???
[08:09] <wilrecar77> it says on the ubuntu website that if i install the xubuntu-desktop package it will "morph" into xubuntu. does this replace the reg ubuntu files with the xubuntu ones or just add them
[08:09] <wietz0r> wilrecar77: add
[08:09] <OSBC> wietz0r: exactly the same, but with ohci_hcd
[08:09] <ericrw> clay_the_arc,  run:  sudo badblocks -sv /dev/hda
[08:09] <Gnea> ferronica: google
[08:09] <clay_the_arc> M'Kay
[08:09] <wietz0r> OSBC: wtb, what happens if you rmmod ohci_hcd ?
[08:10] <wilrecar77> ok. id like to replace them though. is there any way to do that(as in command line actions)
[08:10] <codin> where can I get an alternate install ISO from ?
[08:10] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, it will print the status, showing the currently testing block and the number of blocks.
[08:10] <ferronica> Gnea: google ???
[08:10] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, when it finishes, it *should* appear to have printed nothing, returning to hte prompt
[08:10] <wietz0r> wilrecar77: Yes, you can purge gnome and the like but meh
[08:10] <Gnea> ferronica: www.google.com  you've never heard of it?!
[08:10] <codin> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download <-- there are only desktop and server release
[08:10] <OSBC> wietz0r: i modprobe ehci_hcd or not ?
[08:10] <wilrecar77> ok
[08:10] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, if it finishes and returns any numbers... then you have a bad harddrive
[08:10] <wietz0r> OSBC: http://www.mepis.org/node/5860
[08:10] <wilrecar77> thanks for the help
[08:10] <wietz0r> I'm not sure if it's helpful
[08:10] <wietz0r> wilrecar77: I wouldn't do it, it can break stuff
[08:11] <clay_the_arc> ericrw
[08:11] <Gnea> !alternative | codin
[08:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alternative - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:11] <ferronica> Gnea: i know
[08:11] <Gnea> wtf
[08:11] <clay_the_arc> if it returns numbers, then reinstall?
[08:11] <Gnea> !alternate | codin
[08:11] <ubotu> codin: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[08:11] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> Anyone knows how I can make Mysql work?
[08:11] <vox754> codin, "Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer."
[08:11] <Gnea> !mysql | e3yhw45yerhg4yer
[08:11] <ubotu> e3yhw45yerhg4yer: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[08:12] <clay_the_arc> ericrwc if it returns numbers, then reinstall?
[08:12] <clay_the_arc> ericrw*
[08:12] <wilrecar77> ok. id just like to install xubuntu 7.04 and when the update manager tried to from 6.10( on xubuntu) the screen about the RAID stuff wouldnt accept the enter key for ok
[08:12] <fivetwentysix> Why can't i switch screen resolutions?
[08:12] <fivetwentysix> When I run Starcraft it says it can't switch video mode
[08:12] <Gnea> !minimal | codin
[08:12] <tombar> !php4
[08:12] <ubotu> codin: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[08:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about php4 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:12] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: Because you're xorg.conf isn't setup properly for different resolutions
[08:12] <ericrw> clay_the_arc, if it prints numbers, buy a new harddrive.
[08:13] <fivetwentysix> wietz0r so how do I set it up properly?
[08:13] <codin> is there a way to install it from the net direclty ?
[08:13] <wietz0r> fivetwentysix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=169674
[08:13] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, its the same 1 i run XP on
[08:13] <wietz0r> codin: What ?
[08:13] <OSBC> wietz0r: woot !!! works !!!!
[08:13] <CptAJ[ve] > Hello there, folks. I'm having some trouble with my sound cards. I have 2 soundcards, one PCI and one integrated. I want the PCI to be used as default instead of the integrated one. How do I do it?
[08:13] <OSBC> wietz0r: thx man :D
[08:13] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> How can I make a socket?
[08:13] <wietz0r> OSBC: No problems
[08:14] <codin> a net installer ?
[08:14] <boi1555> simple question .. when i had compiz i was able to go to the corner of my screen and all my windows would unclutter and be shown (like expose on x) .. now i have beryl .. im not sure if this is even a beryl or compiz or just ubuntu feature but how do i edit these corners?
[08:14] <sluimers> !ask
[08:14] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:14] <OSBC> wietz0r: I got a little problem in addition someover
[08:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Someone gave a link that showed Windows users the Linux Equivalent Programs. Does anyone have it?
[08:14] <crocodile> hey guys with compiz fusion, I can enable and disable all the features but how do I actually use some of them?  Cube for example, is there a hotkey to open the cube?
[08:14] <vox754> !minimal > codin
[08:14] <wietz0r> Jack_Sparrow: http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Linux_software_equivalent_to_Windows_software
[08:14] <Jack_Sparrow> TY
[08:14] <taa> can any one help me with glxinfo | grep "direct rendering" NO !!
[08:14] <OSBC> wietz0r:  ubuntu recognize it like a "music reader" instead of a usb storage key
[08:14] <wietz0r> crocodile: both mousekeys + drag
[08:15] <wietz0r> OSBC: As in some software starts up ?
[08:15] <CptAJ[ve] > could someone point me to the ALSA configuration files?
[08:15] <OSBC> wietz0r: yep, like rhythmbox
[08:15] <crocodile> wietz0r: is there something I can read to see all the hotkeys for each feature?
[08:15] <Gnea> e3yhw45yerhg4yer: you don't, just tell mysql what socket file to use and it'll create it on its own when you restart
[08:15] <OSBC> wietz0r: and it scans the disk for nothing
[08:15] <wietz0r> crocodile: type compiz in terminal and press tab and look around
[08:15] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> But I can't do that!
[08:15] <boi1555> :-(
[08:15] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> it wont make one
[08:15] <wietz0r> OSBC: Maybe you can configure it in rhythmbox itself ?
[08:15] <sluimers> I want to install a smartbase Canon MP360 printer, can someone help me with that? All I know is that it's best to choose a Canon S600 as the driver and I can add printers in Turboprint and localhost:631. I don't know which device I should choose nor the URI.
[08:15] <wietz0r> I'm not sure
[08:15] <Gnea> e3yhw45yerhg4yer: why not?
[08:15] <clay_the_arc> ericrw, i'll be back once i try
[08:15] <Bilaw> hello, all!
[08:16] <edaniel> How can I get a USB mouse working on this laptop?
[08:16] <crocodile> wietz0r: it says 'compiz is already running'
[08:16] <wietz0r> crocodile: Did you press TAB instead of enter ?
[08:16] <Jack_Sparrow> wietz0r: That was not the one but it will still help thanks,  the one I saw had screenshots and only covered maybe 10 programs
[08:16] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> I can't even run Mysql, Donno whats wrong

[08:16] <OSBC> wietz0r: i'm afraid not, but it must be some gnome config. I don't know where to configure that
[08:17] <fivetwentysix> My xorg.conf file is setup for multiple resolutions...
[08:17] <crocodile> wietz0r - theres only 2, compiz or compiz.real  Neither are telling me the hotkeys to use each feature of compiz fusion
[08:17] <fivetwentysix> Yet I can't switch resolutions
[08:17] <OSBC> wietz0r: I've also remarked that it's read as a simple mass storage with the live-cd
[08:17] <sluimers> !printer

[08:18] <wietz0r> OSBC: Hmm, preferences and then something like "removable storage"
[08:18] <crocodile> wietz0r: loading the config panel is not the problem, I can load that and enable/disable all kinds of features.  The panel is incomplete though as it doesn't tell me how to USE each feature.. that is the information I'm looking for
[08:18] <wietz0r> OSBC: It should be there

[08:18] <sluimers> I want to install a smartbase Canon MP360 printer. All I know is that it's best to choose a Canon S600 as the driver and I can add printers in Turboprint and localhost:631. I don't know which device I should choose nor the URI.  Can someone help!?
[08:18] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> only binary files
[08:18] <crocodile> wietz0r: no sir
[08:18] <Gnea> shawn34: have you tried #kino?
[08:19] <shawn34> Gnea, empty
[08:19] <Gnea> e3yhw45yerhg4yer: in /var/log? that can't be right, unless they're gzipped
[08:19] <wietz0r> crocodile: tried #compiz ?
[08:19] <OSBC> wietz0r: indeed, found. I've been looking in the past but I didn't saw it
[08:19] <crocodile> nope, I'll do that
[08:19] <wietz0r> OSBC: No problem, everything works now ?
[08:19] <CptAJ[ve] > fourth time asking... where are the ALSA configuration files?
[08:19] <wietz0r> CptAJ[ve] : There aren't any
[08:19] <OSBC> wietz0r: you're a god. Yep everuthing works all right ;)
[08:19] <shawn34> Gnea, on a different server? cause no one is in that room on freenode
[08:20] <CptAJ[ve] > wietz0r: Then how do I change the default sound card? I have 2. Linux uses the wrong one.
[08:20] <wietz0r> capgadget: Type "alsaconf"
[08:20] <OSBC> wietz0r: err... no, rhythmbox keep on scanning the key
[08:20] <Gnea> shawn34: how about the kino discussion forum?
[08:20] <wietz0r> OSBC: Do you use rhythmbox ?
[08:20] <OSBC> yep
[08:21] <BloodHunter> hi
[08:21] <e3yhw45yerhg4yer> When I open them in kate it says they are binary files.
[08:21] <greg__> how i mount cd manually ?
[08:21] <wietz0r> Damn, my next suggestion was going to be "aptitude purge rhythmbox"
[08:21] <NeoGeo64> Kino sucks.
[08:21] <wietz0r> greg__: with the mount command
[08:21] <BloodHunter> hm
[08:21] <nny> how do i manually add a gpg key for apt?
[08:21] <wietz0r> OSBC: The second tab
[08:21] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: no.
[08:21] <BloodHunter> how can i login as root ( so i got root rights in gnome )
[08:21] <OSBC> wietz0r: with the live-cd, the key is recognized as a mass storage, maybe i've messed with something but don't know why
[08:21] <OSBC> *what
[08:21] <CptAJ[ve] >  wietz0r: No manual entry for alsaconf
[08:21] <AidyMole> seargeant aids fer help!
[08:21] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: what's better then?
[08:21] <wietz0r> OSBC: on the storage one
[08:21] <NeoGeo64> The only reason to use Kino is if you have a DV cam, its not for editing AVI, MPG, or WMV files.
[08:21] <greg__> wietz0r, whats the full command?
[08:21] <wietz0r> greg__: mount /dev/cdrom /path/to/mountspot
[08:22] <Shaftino> !root | BloodHunter
[08:22] <ubotu> BloodHunter: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[08:22] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: you are mistaken.
[08:22] <sluimers> !root
[08:22] <NeoGeo64> I had no luck trying to use it.
[08:22] <BloodHunter> eh lol
[08:22] <BloodHunter> iam not very familiar with the terminal yet
[08:22] <AidyMole> BloodHunter: you can make a root account
[08:22] <wietz0r> sluimers: wat is er ?
[08:22] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: it depends what video files you feed it, it doesn't read everything
[08:22] <BloodHunter> how
[08:22] <BloodHunter> ?
[08:22] <NeoGeo64> I tried opening up some AVI files and it said it couldn't open it.
[08:22] <OSBC> wietz0r: yep, i've unticked it, but if I launch rhythmbox, it is scanning the key whatever
[08:22] <acojlo> anyone from finland?
[08:22] <Gnea> right
[08:22] <BloodHunter> if i enter : root ( in the login shell ) it says i cant login in this login shell
[08:22] <sluimers> wietz0r, niets, ik wacht totdat ik geholpen kan worden.
[08:23] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: it should open mpeg4 files just fine
[08:23] <Shaftino> BloodHunter, use 'su'
[08:23] <wietz0r> sluimers: With what ?
[08:23] <Flannel> BloodHunter: you don't need the root account.  alt-f2, `gksu nautilus`  and then close it as soon as you're done with it.
[08:23] <AidyMole> BloodHunter: it's impossible to log into gnome as root if you don't have a root user
[08:23] <sluimers> wietz0r, mijn printer
[08:23] <NeoGeo64> with a video editor, it needs to be able to read any file i give to it and i have all the w32 codecs installed in my box
[08:23] <inthepit> my root terminal freezes up when i try to start it.  anyone know of a way to fix this issue?
[08:23] <wietz0r> sluimers: Tried #ubuntu-nl ? or #cups ?
[08:23] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: well, tell that to the legal department.
[08:23] <Flannel> !fi | acojlo
[08:23] <ubotu> acojlo: Suomenkielinen keskustelu (K)Ubuntusta kanavilla #ubuntu-fi ja #kubuntu-fi
[08:23] <greg__> whats the full command to mount cd?
[08:23] <sluimers> wietz0r, ubuntu-nl al geprobeerd cups nog niet
[08:23] <acojlo> !fi
[08:23] <BloodHunter> thanks
[08:23] <BloodHunter> thats what i wanted
[08:23] <BloodHunter> :P
[08:23] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: otherwise, suggest another video editor
[08:24] <NeoGeo64> But I have tried opening non DV files in Kino and it flat out won't open them saying they're not DV files.
[08:24] <NeoGeo64> Gnea; Any suggestions :)
[08:24] <AidyMole> BloodHunter: sudo passwd -u root
[08:24] <wietz0r> inthepit: start a regular terminal and sudo su
[08:24] <AidyMole> i think
[08:24] <Gnea> NeoGeo64: LOL that's what i thought
[08:24] <wietz0r> AidyMole: sudo su and then passwd
[08:24] <aa^way> hm any suggestions how to match up a string by regex and save output to file by terminal?
[08:24] <sluimers> wietz0r, jij hebt ook geen verstand van Canon printers op Ubuntu?
[08:24] <aa^way> echo $(grep -FE "^yo" "yoo") > match.txt but im not doing it right at all heh
[08:24] <AidyMole> wietz0r: okay that's exactly the same
[08:24] <Flannel> AidyMole, wietz0r, please don't reocmmend that here.  BloodHunter, there's no reason to do that.
[08:24] <wietz0r> sluimers: Nope, geen flauw idee
[08:25] <AidyMole> Flannel: ah okay didn't know there was a policy thing
[08:25] <AidyMole> Flannel: but yes it's quite stupid to log in as root with your DE
[08:25] <Daveyboy> how do i remove php5 and install php4 completely
[08:25] <Gnea> shawn34: anyway, they buried the forums on the website a level due to spamming - click on the FAQ link to get there
[08:25] <wietz0r> Daveyboy: aptitude purge php5
[08:25] <inthepit> thanks
[08:25] <NeoGeo64> Gnea: Any other good video editors for ubuntu
[08:25] <boi1555> anyone know how do pull up gesture preferences (as in os x)?
[08:25] <Flannel> Daveyboy: Which version of ubuntu?
[08:25] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: tried cinelerra?
[08:26] <NeoGeo64> something a little more along the lines of WMM, which is what im used to
[08:26] <Daveyboy> wietz0r, thanks
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> Crap
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> I figured out how to change my resolution
[08:26] <NeoGeo64> tarzeau: I've heard of it, but cannot find a place to download it, and its not in the repos.
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> ihave to do it in nvidia-settings
[08:26] <shawn34> Gnea, gscanbus detects my JVC and I can control the playback function with it from pc. Its just this issue with Kino, I kow the cam work with linux now
[08:26] <OSBC> wietz0r: I should find how ubuntu says a device is a music reader or a mass storage
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> However now my resolution is 640x480
[08:26] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: make a package yourself. it's on the internet
[08:26] <fivetwentysix> I can't see anything and change my resolution back
[08:27] <NeoGeo64> tarzeau: What's it like?  Is it any good?
[08:27] <NeoGeo64> tarzeau:  I couldn't find any screenshots of it running.
[08:27] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: it's like a, uh, good video editor
[08:27] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: run it and make the screenshots?
[08:27] <Daveyboy> flannnel, 6.06
[08:27] <Gnea> shawn34: mkay, i've never used a dv cam with it before so i'm not entirely sure how to help you out with that
[08:27] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: http://images.google.com/images?um=1&tab=wi&client=iceweasel-a&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.debian%3Aen-US%3Aunofficial&q=cinelerra
[08:27] <NeoGeo64> I like to look @ screenshots before I download it.
[08:28] <rburton> are there business card/usb stick netinstall images of feisty?
[08:28] <Gnea> tarzeau: good afternoon
[08:28] <tarzeau> Gnea: good evening
[08:28] <Flannel> !minimal | rburton
[08:28] <ubotu> rburton: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[08:28] <rburton> woo
[08:28] <rburton> Flannel: thanks
[08:28] <NeoGeo64> I will check out cinerella.  I'll need to compile it from source?
[08:28] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: yes
[08:28] <rburton> Flannel: i can never find it :)
[08:28] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: unless you send me a lemon cake to make the pkg for you
[08:28] <Flannel> Daveyboy: Alright.  You have php4 (although, I think it's in universe).  Just remove php5 and install php4
[08:28] <NeoGeo64> ok i have build-essential, do i need anything else to compile code
[08:28] <NeoGeo64> tarzeau: lol
[08:29] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: yes, read their documentation
[08:29] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: i was serious
[08:29] <NeoGeo64> lol
[08:29] <tarzeau> rofl
[08:29] <NeoGeo64> lemon cake? is that any good? arent lemons sour?
[08:29] <NeoGeo64> you should try a key lime pie.
[08:29] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: i like lemon cake
[08:29] <NeoGeo64> if you like tart treats
[08:31] <NeoGeo64> hmm
[08:31] <Gnea> hrmmm
[08:31] <NeoGeo64> Is it just me or does Linux seem to need more CPU time to render pages in Firefox than under Windows.
[08:31] <OldPink> Hi All
[08:31] <Sika> Hi
[08:31] <xav35> hi
[08:31] <roddersg> Hi all
[08:31] <tarzeau> NeoGeo64: possible
[08:31] <xav35> i am french

[08:32] <wietz0r> xav35: /join #ubuntu-fr
[08:32] <roddersg> I have a question on Fiesty regarding cdr-dvdr burning, can anyone help?
[08:32] <jude> hey how do i remove genome?
[08:32] <NeoGeo64> Yeah, I think so.  When I try and play flash videos on youtube and browse the web around in another tab, the flash file will skip around a good bit. that doesnt happen on windows.
[08:32] <NeoGeo64> I wonder why
[08:32] <wietz0r> jude: aptitude purge gnome
[08:32] <rayden> join #gnome.pl
[08:32] <bluefox83> NeoGeo64, the firefox in ubuntu is not optimized, you should check out the optimizations in the forum
[08:32] <xav35> wietor>thanks
[08:33] <NeoGeo64> bluefox83, ok
[08:33] <roddersg> I just can't get fiesty to burn any cdrom/dvds (I'm using fiesy amd64) has anyone a solution?
[08:33] <Talaman72> does anyone know the link for the compatibility list?
[08:33] <jude> can any one tell me why my pc frizin severy time i try to log into geome
[08:34] <smeierjr> Hello all
[08:34] <NeoGeo64> That's saying the win32 binary is optimized?
[08:34] <wietz0r> jude: because your pc is too slow ?
[08:34] <jude> i don't think so
[08:34] <jude> i got 512
[08:35] <NeoGeo64> Firefox has plenty of RAM space to stretch out its legs.
[08:35] <wietz0r> jude: Could you login before ?
[08:35] <jude> yea
[08:35] <NeoGeo64> it will eat up 100mb of ram easy
[08:35] <wietz0r> jude: try this in the terminal "mkdir dotfile-old && mv ~/.* dotfile-old"
[08:35] <wietz0r> and see if you can login again
[08:35] <wietz0r> if you can, slowly start placing stuff back
[08:36] <jude> u think if i remove it an install it again it would work?
[08:36] <pop> hey does anyone know shorewall?
[08:36] <pop> i can't remember if it serves out ip addresses or if i need to run dhcpd seperately
[08:36] <jude> k thinks
[08:36] <jude> thanks**
[08:36] <Gnea> !shorewall | pop
[08:36] <ubotu> pop: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[08:36] <ompaul> Talaman72, there is none, what have you got?
[08:36] <Gnea> pop: afaik, dhcpd is separate
[08:36] <pop> that's not really helpful
[08:36] <pop> gnea; thanks!
[08:37] <OldPink> Anyone tried my "smaller menu" adjustments? I think I've nailed it now
[08:37] <kraut> moin
[08:37] <roddersg> can anyone advise on cdr/dvdr burning?
[08:37] <Talaman72> there is none? i saw one the other day, just can't find it again
[08:37] <NeoGeo64> I don't need a firewall.  I'm behind a NAT.
[08:37] <jude> dinn't do nothing
[08:37] <Talaman72> dang it, should have e-mailed it from work

[08:39] <wietz0r> With the alternate install cd, can I keep my /home partition ?

[08:50] <Leo89> Guys, does Kylix works under Ubuntu???  If yes, where can I download Kylix for free ^^
[08:50] <scary> Gnea: not that easy, the drivers are not loading.  aplay -l shows nothing
[08:50] <scary> not in the /procs either
[08:50] <dbbolton> what is considered an excessively high temperature for a laptop?
[08:50] <magnetron> littlebob: did you install the server version of ubuntu?
[08:50] <spangle> Shaftino: Does it work for 8800 series cards?
[08:50] <Gnea> scary: lspci | grep audio
[08:50] <littlebob> no desktop
[08:50] <Super_Cat_Frog> spangle: dunno, should do, its just the normal nvidia drivers, but package in a way that plays nicely with ubuntu
[08:51] <Gnea> xcd: sudo hal-device
[08:51] <Shaftino> spangle, I think that requires the beta drivers and im not to sure how you install them
[08:51] <w30> xcd: I dono, go to /proc and look around in there. less /proc/device etc.
[08:51] <Neko_o> little bob, try: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

[08:51] <erUSUL> Leo89: kylix is a little bit outdated i do not think that it will work in any modern distro...
[08:51] <sluimers> Does anyone here have experience in making canon printers work in Ubuntu?
[08:52] <littlebob> i used the netboot version and it gave me a choice to install the desktop, ill try that thanks
[08:52] <skenmy> Okay, we'll try with the actual issue im having. I'm being dumped to BusyBox on a fresh 7.04 install. No amount of fiddling with the toptions in the GRUB boot menu avoids this - it's exactly the same as the issue in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279884
[08:52] <scary> Gnea: I just installed the newest alsa drivers with help from #alsa, but it didn't load at start-up
[08:52] <Daveyboy> why is php4 still showing when doing 'whereis php4' after i did a apt-get remove php4?
[08:52] <erUSUL> Leo89: try lazarus http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/
[08:52] <Gnea> scary: did you install them the ubuntu-way?
[08:53] <Flannel> Daveyboy: you need to apt-get remove --purge php4, to remove all the config files and stuff
[08:53] <scary> Gnea:  I tried that first, I couldn't get it to load so I installed from source
[08:53] <Daveyboy> flannel , okay thanks
[08:53] <littlebob> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start          so this will start the desktop?
[08:53] <scary> Gnea: http://pastebin.ca/587616
[08:54] <Gnea> scary: bad move.
[08:54] <scary> why?
[08:54] <scary> Gnea:  why does that make any difference?
[08:54] <ericleblanc> hi
[08:54] <antonioabdulio> do you know where are the multimedia settings??
[08:55] <Gnea> scary: it makes ALL the difference - installing from source only breaks the base ubuntu sound system - if you upgrade later on, it could overwrite those files
[08:55] <littlebob> it is this computer so i got to go
[08:55] <Daveyboy> flannel , okay thanks, but did that command and still there in whereis, apt said php4 is not installed so not removed
[08:55] <mokomull> I'm having trouble with Gnome in Ubuntu... it doesn't like global shortcuts with Mod4, which it doesn't trap.

[09:03] <KDan> Hello, I'm trying to open something through xvfb-run. I keep getting "Error: Can't open display: :99" error messages. /tmp/.X11-unix/X99 exists, and i tried running it under sudo so I don't think it's a permissions problem. Anyone got any idea/pointers for how I can resolve that? Couldn't find much on google unfortunately... Yes, I've also tried exporting DISPLAY (to :99 and localhost:0.0)... no joy...
[09:03] <Nalleman> Gnea, is it in the repositories?
[09:03] <Gnea> Nalleman: i think so... apt-cache search tremulous
[09:03] <burtr> Hey I was wondering if core duo is considered 64 bit?
[09:03] <justinburger> is there a way to control the power provided to a USB port? ie: ON/OFF ?
[09:03] <Lamego> bur[n] er, all core2 duo processors support 64 bits, if that is your question
[09:04] <heatman> does anyone know what version on ndiswrapper works best for Ubuntu 7.04?
[09:04] <burtr> which ubuntu would i install?
[09:04] <niuq> how can i remove splash screen?
[09:04] <burtr> the  64 or the 486?
[09:04] <edison_> ive got a problem with HAMACHI i can see my friends and they can see me but i cant ping them and they cant ping me :( can someone help me?
[09:04] <Nalleman> Gnea, i try to install it now, but its about 100 megs so it will take some minutes
[09:04] <Flannel> heatman: the one that's in the repositories.
[09:04] <Shaftino> burtr, Id install the standard non 64 bit one,
[09:04] <tarzeau> niuq: of which program?
[09:04] <burtr> thanks shaftino
[09:04] <Gnea> Nalleman: np, i'm getting AC installed now
[09:04] <Shaftino> burtr, Get some other opnions though
[09:04] <nox-Hand> Where do I change the message printed at login on my server?
[09:04] <edison_> ive got a problem with HAMACHI i can see my friends and they can see me but i cant ping them and they cant ping me :( can someone help me?
[09:05] <niuq> tarzeau: it is actually the starting splash when i log in to ubuntu
[09:05] <heatman> Flannel: dont have access to internet and apt-get cant find it on Installation CD
[09:05] <burtr> Well I have XP on here and dell didn't recomend 64 t the time (although do they ever?)
[09:05] <Lamego> niuq, install something like the startup manager
[09:05] <littlebob> ubuntu is only starting in the commandline did i do something wrong
[09:05] <OSBC> wietz0r: I've solved my problem but now, when I mount my key, i got the rights permissions but I can create a folder (example) on it with nautilus
[09:05] <Shaftino> burtr, Well i think most people would probably recommend the standard 32 bit one
[09:05] <unimatrix9> heatman : download and put on usb?
[09:05] <w30> burtr: I was reading about that; Intel says you gota have the bios updated for 64bit support but it does not say whether current motherboards are updated for 64 bit
[09:05] <Havis_> burtr: just itstall any Ubuntu :) on your hardware it should run pretty well :)
[09:05] <Talaman72> edison_,, are you using a router?
[09:06] <Flannel> heatman: thats because it was removed from the CD for some reason in feisty.  Do you have internet on any other machines?  sneakernet is the way to go.  http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/misc/ndiswrapper-utils-1.9  and http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/misc/ndiswrapper-common
[09:06] <ekso> very newbie question.... how do i get out of man? :p
[09:06] <heatman> unimatrix9: I didnt all i get is errors
[09:06] <edison_> Talaman72, yes DLink Gaming router gbit
[09:06] <crocodile> when I run emerald I get this error:         (emerald:18768): Wnck-WARNING **: Unhandled action type (nil)
[09:06] <burtr> thanks for the input
[09:06] <ekso> esc did not worked..
[09:06] <ekso> ctrl-c neither
[09:06] <Flannel> heatman: the table/box with archetectures at the bottom, click the "all" or "i386" and then you'll be asked to choose a mirror to download it
[09:06] <heatman> Flannel: TY
[09:06] <Talaman72> edison_,, do you have icmp blocked?
[09:06] <qnyc> ekso, q
[09:06] <ekso> tks!
[09:06] <w30> burtr: also your operating system and apps must be 64bit also to use it.
[09:06] <darwich> can anybody help me find my Fake windows root ?
[09:07] <edison_> Talaman72, Icmp? i dont know i gonna look
[09:07] <justinburger> so there is no way to power up/power down a specific USB port?
[09:07] <ferronica> i am using ubuntu Fiesty Fawn to enter in GRUB esc , IS there any good graphical GRUB available ???
[09:07] <qnyc> ekso, man uses less, type man less for more options
[09:07] <littlebob> i was using the netboot does it install the desktop
[09:07] <darwich> can anybody help me find my Fake windows root ?
[09:07] <niuq> Lamego: startup manager?
[09:07] <OSBC> man useless ? :p
[09:07] <edison_> Talaman72, what are you doing?
[09:08] <Lamego> niuq, http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=Startup+Manager
[09:08] <w30> burtr: you can install things like 31bit flash on 64 bit Linux but it's a work-around.
[09:08] <taigeR_> hi
[09:08] <w30> 31/32
[09:08] <Nalleman> Gnea, Tremulous worked ok as well
[09:08] <Talaman72> edison_, i was trying to ping you
[09:08] <Lamego> I am using 64bits without any issues, for rare cases you use 32bits binaries
[09:08] <littlebob> anyone?
[09:08] <wietz0r> OSBC: Glad it all worked out :)
[09:09] <edison_> Talaman72, yes i see.. dont know why it doesnt work in hamachi, should i look for icmp?
[09:09] <kbrooks> 31 bit flash? heh :)
[09:09] <OSBC> wietz0r: not all, I don't have writing permissions under nautilus
[09:09] <w30> Lamego: yep 64bit Linux works swell.
[09:09] <wietz0r> OSBC: Oooooh
[09:09] <OSBC> wietz0r: but i can mkdir :)
[09:09] <ekso> qnyc: ok! tks!! :)
[09:09] <wietz0r> OSBC: You could always start a nautilus as root and change the permissions on it ?
[09:10] <wietz0r> Anyhow, I'm gonna install ubunt unow
[09:10] <taigeR_> you tell me ;)
[09:10] <Gnea> Nalleman: ok, i don't know what AC's setup is all about, it's really impossible to adjust the settings in that game
[09:10] <Talaman72> edison_, ping me and see if you get something back
[09:10] <Gnea> Nalleman: yeah, AC looks like it has some issues
[09:10] <wietz0r> Talaman72: 21:10 [freenode]  CTCP PING reply from Talaman72: 0.492 seconds
[09:11] <Talaman72> huh

[09:11] <Nalleman> ok, sorry
[09:11] <Gnea> np
[09:11] <OSBC> wietz0r: that's only nautilus who is fool
[09:12] <Gnea> Nalleman: i think you'll like tremulous - give it a bit and see how it grows on ya, the gfx/sound should keep up ok
[09:12] <edison_> Talaman72, dont know how to ping u here in xchat lol
[09:12] <littlebob> does netboot only install non-graphical ubuntu?
[09:13] <mzanfardino> I need some suggestions on how to properly evaluate the functionality of my wireless network.  I've recently installed ubuntu on a laptop with wireless connectivitiy.  I can get the wireless adapter to work, but I'm finding that I have a spoty connection.  I and another laptop running windows and it too has a spotty connection.  I'm suspicious of the router, but when I run various wired tests it performs perfectly.  Any suggestions?
[09:13] <Talaman72> just right click on the nick and it ping or ctcp then ping should be in the list
[09:13] <Nalleman> yes. its looks great. but i still have issues with flightgear and 3d chess (!)
[09:13] <tarzeau> Nalleman: nvidia?
[09:13] <littlebob> any help
[09:14] <Nalleman> tarzeau, no, intel
[09:14] <imachine> HEY
[09:14] <tarzeau> littlebob: netboot just says you boot from the network. you can do anything afterwards
[09:14] <imachine> cna someone tell me where I can get files from packages ?
[09:14] <tarzeau> Nalleman: haha, :)
[09:14] <imachine> http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/base/linux-amd64-generic <- i want this package
[09:14] <Talaman72> edison_, if you have xchat there is a button
[09:14] <tarzeau> imachine: from opening the package?
[09:14] <imachine> where can I find what is it built from ?
[09:14] <littlebob> well i installed the ubuntu desktop but it does not comeup
[09:14] <tarzeau> imachine: download it and unpack it?
[09:14] <imachine> tarzeau: dude, don't try to be funny please. I need to know about patches.
[09:14] <tarzeau> imachine: binary packages are built from source packages
[09:14] <OSBC> wietz0r: i'm trying a reboot, maybe something fooled
[09:15] <imachine> I need to patch my vanilla kernel with the same patch ubuntu patches it's asus-acpi module.
[09:15] <Nalleman> tarzeau, integrated intel card.  A guy across the street was using my wireless in his car but the computer in my bedroom is always droping connections, Go figure
[09:16] <Lamego> imachine, it includes everything which is used to build the binaries
[09:16] <imachine> mokomull: I mean I could just as well diff the files :)
[09:16] <imachine> Lamego: yes! that's what I want ;)
[09:16] <OldPink> /
[09:16] <mokomull> imachine: Of course not.  You could always search the changelog to find out.
[09:16] <imachine> Lamego: where could I find the package ?
[09:16] <mokomull> imachine: sudo apt-get source linux-kernel
[09:16] <imachine> http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/base/linux-amd64-generic that's the one I want
[09:17] <host_> question, how do I tell what video driver linux is using?
[09:17] <imachine> mokomull: well, yes, but I'm not on ubuntu. and I don't have ubuntu anywhere near except for on cds. where would this command fetch the source package from ?
[09:17] <tarzeau> host_: which video card? check the x config file?
[09:17] <imachine> mokomull: http://ftp.pwr.wroc.pl/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.22/ <- here, for example ?
[09:17] <Sebastianffx> hi, somebody can help me, i lost my ntfs disks, and when i remount them, it says: "File system incorrect, opcion incorrect, block incorrect on /dev/sda5. it miss the code page or so.  try dmesg|tail or so.
[09:17] <w30> mzanfardino: I suppose you have messed with locations and antenna positions, etc.
[09:17] <tarzeau> host_: if you're after ati/nvidia lsmod and look for nvidia or fglrx
[09:17] <Lamego> host_, you look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:17] <host_> nvidia gforce 5200
[09:17] <imachine> mokomull: I don't know how the mirrors are built for apt-get.
[09:18] <tarzeau> host_: lsmod | grep nvidia says something?
[09:18] <mokomull> imachine: You see down below where it says "Source package:"...
[09:18] <tarzeau> host_: then check the x config file if it has vesa, nv or nvidia
[09:18] <imachine> mokomull: I see nothing like that.
[09:19] <mokomull> Under "More information"
[09:19] <imachine> is there no View-CVS for stuff like that ?
[09:19] <Milux> hello! i can't see correctly the ...letters with kvirc. I tried UTF-8 and ISO 8859-1. What i do?
[09:19] <Lundn> a good linux editor that handles ftp highlightning and auto complete would be awesome :P
[09:20] <Ravenndude`> Is there a way to make boot time in fiesty quicker?
[09:20] <niuq> Lamego: i just installed wmanager, thought it was the same thing, but i cannot run it
[09:20] <Sebastianffx> somebody that help me please: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27054/
[09:20] <Sebastianffx> i dont know how to recover my ntfs discs
[09:20] <buddo> windowers soft wear

[09:21] <ferronica> i am using ubuntu Fiesty Fawn to enter in GRUB esc , is there any good graphical GRUB available ???
[09:21] <Gnea> Sebastianffx: got a windows cd?
[09:21] <Ravenndude`> i before e except after c
[09:21] <Sebastianffx> yes
[09:21] <Sebastianffx> why, Gnea?
[09:21] <host_> tarzeau, it has nvidia, but it's only allowing my refresh rate to go up to 54 hz
[09:21] <Gnea> Sebastianffx: boot it up, go into recovery mode console, and run chkdsk /r
[09:21] <buddo> printing with lexmark
[09:21] <wolfspirit> how do I install the dcop server?  is that something specific to installing kde?  I'm trying to run a kde app in enlightenment and I normally use gnome
[09:21] <Ravenndude`> Is there a way to make boot time in feisty*** quicker?
[09:22] <Sebastianffx> allright
[09:22] <wolfspirit> Ravenndude`: what is it at right now?
[09:22] <tarzeau> Ravenndude`: probably by removing all the stuff that's started at boot time?
[09:22] <Sebastianffx> Gnea, and thats all??
[09:22] <buddo> lexmarkprinter
[09:22] <Gnea> Sebastianffx: when it finishes, reboot to ubuntu and try to mount the ntfs then
[09:23] <Sebastianffx> ok i will, thanx a lot :)
[09:23] <pepe_> hello folks :)
[09:23] <host_> next question, how do I get my refresh rate options to allow me to make it higher? it's only going up to 54 hz
[09:24] <OldPink> host
[09:24] <OldPink> host_: Edit your xorg.conf :)
[09:24] <ubuntu_aa> help help
[09:24] <imachine> mokomull: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/devel/linux-source this is what I want
[09:24] <host_> thanks OldPink , i'll just fiddle around in that for a while til something works in a few weeks
[09:24] <ubuntu_aa> I booted ubuntu live cd to fix broken sysstem on hda
[09:25] <OldPink> host: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:25] <ubuntu_aa> but ubuntu livecd doesnt see my hard drive, there is no file /dev/hda wtf
[09:25] <imachine> mokomull: but it's built from some wacky linux-meta package. and that's all I can get from the Source package:
[09:25] <imachine> mokomull: it's terrible! :/// ffs
[09:25] <OldPink> host_: Then look for the list of refresh rates
[09:25] <OldPink> Add the ones you'd like
[09:25] <OldPink> Reboot
[09:25] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: it'd be /dev/hda1 (for the first partition on hda)
[09:25] <ubuntu_aa>  # ls /dev/hd?
[09:25] <ubuntu_aa> /dev/hdb
[09:26] <ubuntu_aa> it sees only my cdrom
[09:26] <unimatrix9> make sure your monitor can do the refresh rate you enter!
[09:26] <ubuntu_aa> but not ATA
[09:26] <mike> I have a problem with my screen resolution... I edited the config file and added in the resolution I need..
[09:26] <bri> hello

[09:26] <Lekrem> hey bri
[09:26] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: hdb is your CDrom?
[09:26] <ubuntu_aa> Flannel, yea
[09:26] <mike> but ubuntu desktop doesn't work at full resolution
[09:27] <mike> !resolution

[09:27] <ubuntu_aa> Flanne yeaaa
[09:27] <Gnea> mike: the system might not support that resolution

[09:27] <mike> :(
[09:27] <Gnea> it might not
[09:27] <Gnea> depends what your system is
[09:27] <ubuntu_aa> Flanne - LIVE cd ubuntu do create /dev/hda and so on if harddrive is connected??
[09:27] <mike> what do you mean by system?
[09:27] <mike> hardware?
[09:27] <Gnea> yes
[09:27] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: no.  Turn it off, open up the system, check your connections.
[09:28] <mike> 8800 GTS 320
[09:28] <Gnea> monitor?
[09:28] <ubuntu_aa> Flannel so you say it must be a hardware problem?
[09:28] <mike> Gnea, Why would the login screen work but the desktop not?
[09:28] <Flannel> ubuntu_aa: yes.    You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[09:30] <Flannel> imachine: follow the instructions on that page to get the kernel source
[09:30] <Gnea> mike: anyway, can you get a make/model of the monitor?
[09:30] <unimatrix9> is there an how to make your own ubuntu livecd some where, or how these were build?
[09:30] <imachine> Flannel: this better be worth it
[09:30] <unimatrix9> not on google...
[09:30] <Wisdom07> hello

[09:30] <mike> yeah 2 secs
[09:30] <imachine> Flannel: I need to know what patches are applied to vanilla.
[09:31] <kitche> unimatrix9: sicne I know one is on there but not sure if that's what you want or not
[09:31] <imachine> Flannel: I intend to use Ubuntu's acpi-asus patches for my kernel on another distro.

[09:36] <Gnea> !wireless | linracoon
[09:36] <linracoon> the smc cd doesnt have any driver for linux
[09:36] <ubotu> linracoon: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:37] <linracoon> Gnea: the smc cd doesnt have any driver for linux
[09:37] <Gnea> linracoon: right, linux should have the driver already - if not, you'd have to use it with ndiswrapper - look at the website that ubotu just gave you to check the compatibility list for your card
[09:37] <linracoon> Gnea: ok
[09:37] <Gnea> linracoon: hardly EVER does a cd have a linux driver on it :)
[09:38] <RoC_MM> What happens if I put a repo in my sources.list but don't install the gpg key?
[09:38] <savetheWorld> Hi all -where can i find info about Ubuntu's server releases?
[09:38] <savetheWorld> !ubotu server
[09:38] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[09:38] <linracoon> Gnea: im in that page but i dont see any doc for smc
[09:38] <savetheWorld> Thanks!
[09:39] <Gnea> linracoon: you have to look around and find it
[09:39] <savetheWorld> The werb helps those who HUP themselves
[09:39] <linracoon> Gnea: but i have and there isnt any for smc
[09:39] <imachine> Flannel: dude, http://ftp.pwr.wroc.pl/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.20/linux-source-2.6.20_2.6.20-16.29_all.deb <- is this the file to get ???
[09:39] <mike> Gnea, What do you think? :(
[09:39] <Gnea> linracoon: it's there, you're just not looking hard enough.
[09:39] <imachine> I see no patches, anywhere! it's terryfing how your devs even MANAGE to get about your build system
[09:40] <linracoon> Gnea: hu? where??
[09:40] <benofsky> argh, ubuntu won't install
[09:40] <host_> what's the command to re-run the xorg config?

[09:40] <benofsky> xorgconfig*
[09:40] <KDan> Hello, I'm trying to open something through xvfb-run. I keep getting "Error: Can't open display: :99" error messages. /tmp/.X11-unix/X99 exists, and i tried running it under sudo so I don't think it's a permissions problem. Anyone got any idea/pointers for how I can resolve that? Couldn't find much on google unfortunately... Yes, I've also tried exporting DISPLAY (to :99 and localhost:0.0)... no joy...
[09:41] <Gnea> mike: i think the Monitor section might not have the best HorizSync and VertRefresh values... are those automatically generated?
[09:41] <jrib> !xconfig > host_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:41] <benofsky> after a few minuets of the ubuntu install it tells me system temperature reached 51c too hot system halted

[09:41] <vafada> how can i add myself again to admin group?
[09:41] <neil_> hey guys, I have a vanilla install here with only restricted-packages added
[09:41] <Gnea> vafada: boot from the livecd
[09:41] <linracoon> Gnea: 7904wbra2
[09:42] <neil_> I cant play the streaming video on news.bbc.co.uk, its WM format
[09:42] <neil_> what do I need?
[09:42] <Incandenzian> Is there a way to get the Terminal to open in the dir you're in?
[09:42] <Incandenzian> e.g. I open up a folder on my Desktop, then a subfolder of that folder, etc.
[09:42] <Incandenzian> then click the Terminal icon.
[09:42] <AlestorJN> Hi everyone, I'm having some problems using the partition manager, fdisk, in the Ubuntu Terminal.  If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it. :)
[09:42] <kitche> imachine: umm I see a diff file for the linux source and it looks like a patch to me
[09:42] <vafada> Gnea, no other way to access root in my machine?
[09:43] <Gnea> vafada: negative
[09:43] <owas> preciso de dicas cedega+revolt
[09:43] <neil_> noone?
[09:43] <RoC_MM> vafada, yeah just a sec
[09:43] <GenNMX> How does one recover a lost ext3 partition? I tried converting multiple EXT3 partitions to a LVM, but I screwed up in that I didn't know it would dereference the existing partitions (stupid me). I didn't format the LVM, so the data should still be there. testdisk says the superblocks still exist.
[09:43] <lbawinowns> Ubotu told me that i can use Nautilius as an FTP?
[09:43] <Incandenzian> neil_, go to Synaptic and search for WM.
[09:44] <lbawinowns> What FTP related feutures does nautilius have?
[09:44] <Gnea> linracoon: what kernel are you using?
[09:44] <comosicus> i need to unninstall videoactivex from my comp and i can't find it
[09:44] <kitche> lbawinowns: umm ftp client

[09:44] <darwich> When i try to run WoW trough "  " display=0 wine WoW.exe " i still run 5 fps trough Wine .. Why ?
[09:44] <RoC_MM> vafada, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_gain_root_user_access_without_login
[09:44] <Gnea> darwich: because you should use cedega
[09:44] <lbawinowns> kitche, lamego - how do i activate :?
[09:44] <darwich> Gnea: Cedega isnt working here :(
[09:45] <vafada> RoC_MM, thanks let me check that
[09:45] <RoC_MM> vafada, you then need to use some command to add yourself back to the "admin" group
[09:45] <Gnea> darwich: why not?
[09:45] <juan278> how do i pair a phone with ubuntu? it keeps asking for a passkey

[09:45] <Gnea> darwich: i've had WoW work with cedega flawlessly
[09:45] <mike> Gnea, I think they were the auto-generated ones yes
[09:45] <kitche> lbawinowns: should just have to do ftp://<user>@<pass>:domain
[09:45] <darwich> Gnea : I dont know :/ .. but i know that my WoW worked once with Wine .. but cant make it work with more than 5 fps :/
[09:45] <Lamego> lbawinowns, you just need to go to Places -> Connect to Server
[09:46] <jrib> juan278: someone the other day said there was some default key, it was something dumb like 0000 or 1234 (I can't remember).  But  /usr/share/doc/RELEVANT_PACKAGE/README.Debian   would probably mention it
[09:46] <neil_> Do I need w32codecs If i have restricted-packages for ubuntu installed?
[09:46] <lbawinowns> ok thanks, can it act as server?
[09:46] <comosicus> i need to unninstall video activex...i don't now how
[09:46] <darwich> When i try to run WoW with the command " display=0 wine WoW.exe " i still run 5 fps trough Wine .. Why ?
[09:46] <jrib> neil_: I don't have w32codecs and I can play everything I've tried
[09:46] <PIPBoy_> is there a chat for the KDE enviroment? and the Gnome enviroment?
[09:46] <neil_> jrib: Can you play streaming video from http://news.bbc.co.uk ?
[09:46] <jrib> comosicus: why do you think you need to?    If you have a question about windows, you should ask in ##windows
[09:48] <comosicus> offfff
[09:48] <Sebastianffx> i dont wanna lost my data :(

[10:03] <weeeeb> i dont see any synaptic processes and besides im running adept and automatrix
[10:03] <weeeeb> which i also cannot find
[10:03] <dugurama> mmm automatix
[10:03] <dugurama> getautomatix.com
[10:03] <jrib> !automatix
[10:03] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[10:04] <Sebastianffx> i think the same, but even it dont recognize th partition (D:>)
[10:04] <dugurama> same deal with synaptic
[10:04] <neil_> jrib: Still no luck, even with mplayer. This has always been my problem with ubuntu.. it connects, says its buffering, then goes to 'stopped'.
[10:04] <neol> weeeeb: better restart ur system prob will be easily solved without any headache
[10:04] <jrib> neil_: right click -> play
[10:04] <weeeeb> you mean reformat?
[10:04] <jrib> dugurama: will you do what I asked so I can help you?
[10:05] <dugurama> sure
[10:05] <ibanex> weeeb: just restart it will kill the process
[10:05] <ibanex> it shouldnt be running at boot
[10:05] <weeeeb> ive restarted several times...
[10:05] <neol> weeeeb: i mean restart ur system
[10:05] <weeeeb> same error.
[10:05] <Arko> is there SecondLife in repositories?
[10:05] <neol> weeeeb: thats strange
[10:05] <neil_> jrib: repeats same.. connecting, getting playlist, buffering, stopped.
[10:05] <Sebastianffx> look what it says when i try to remoun under ubuntu :[  244.618723]  NTFS-fs error (device sda5): ntfs_fill_super(): Not an NTFS volume.
[10:05] <jrib> Arko: no, but you can download it from their website
[10:05] <weeeeb> its annoying ;p
[10:05] <kane77> Arko, not afaik, but it is on getdeb.org...
[10:05] <Arko> jrib: thanx
[10:05] <jrib> neil_: I used the "play directly in player" link
[10:05] <surviver> jrib, sry for interupt back but i am asking myself in my permissions i see drw... so where stands the D for?
[10:06] <dugurama> vncversion xyz123:0
[10:06] <weeeeb> therfe must be a process that i dont know what it is
[10:06] <kane77> Arko, eh sry getdeb.net
[10:06] <jrib> surviver: d means it is a directory
[10:06] <surviver> jrib, oke ty
[10:06] <ibanex> weeeeb: try the command: sudo ps ax | grep synaptic
[10:06] <ibanex> see what it gives you...
[10:06] <DrkCodeman> how do you enable opengl?
[10:06] <weeeeb> i did try intalling pidgin from the terminal and messed up because im inept at typing in terminal commands, perhaps it created some sort of process there
[10:06] <dugurama> install compiz
[10:07] <weeeeb> what could that be
[10:07] <kitche> DrkCodeman: use a binary driver but it's installed with mesalib
[10:07] <ibanex> weeeeb: that wouldn't spawn any kind of synaptic process
[10:07] <surviver> jrib, oke iam much farther now i can see only root has write premission and group nor other has the permission only read oke thx  iam bit farther i read on how i can change this stuff:D
[10:07] <Gnea> DrkCodeman: have you read this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120615
[10:08] <weeeb> well that didnt work
[10:08] <NaNO2x> how can i modify the applications menu?
[10:09] <ibanex> weeeb: what didnt?
[10:09] <neol> how do i open any application as root ?
[10:09] <jrib> NaNO2x: rigth click on the ubuntu icon -> edit menu
[10:09] <Shaftino> neol, gksudo
[10:09] <kane77> neol, sudo applicationname
[10:09] <kitche> neol: use gksu <application>

[10:09] <NaNO2x> thanks
[10:09] <mike> Gnea, Didn't work - same thing.. login screen is 1280.. then when I login the screen blacks.. then switches back on with 1024.. very strange behaviour indeed
[10:09] <neol> kane77: that is not working
[10:09] <kitche> neol: sudo is for console gksu is for graphical
[10:09] <kane77> neol, if it is gui then gksu
[10:09] <neol> Shaftino: kitche thanks trying now
[10:10] <dugurama> ok jrib now how do I change my dowloads file
[10:10] <dugurama> from Desktop
[10:10] <weeeb> does anyone have any clue how to asses what the hell is causing this message in adept installer:  Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one.
[10:10] <Gnea> mike: OH!!! right click on desktop->properties
[10:10] <terlmann> I have a strange error in one of my games ,and it has happened on other os's.the game ppracer's text ui elements are converted to gibberish for seemingly no reason  when aiglx is enabled.when software rendering is used the framerate is from the 1st century bc but the labels work. any help ?
[10:10] <terlmann> weeb
[10:10] <weeeb> yes
[10:11] <BURTS> what is the longest single span a 5e network cable is capable of?
[10:11] <Gnea> mike: see if you can switch the res for gnome up to 1280 there
[10:11] <terlmann> kill all apt-get , dpkg , and synaotic sessions
[10:11] <surviver> jrib, mzz got question there 3 groups: other owner and group : owner = root , what is group? or other? :s:s
[10:11] <terlmann> log everyone out
[10:11] <dugurama> 100 meters
[10:11] <terlmann> then yourself back in
[10:11] <BURTS> only a 100 meters :( crap
[10:11] <akromyk> hi, can anyone point me to a good linux game to improve memory
[10:11] <terlmann> yes
[10:11] <tarzeau> akromyk: nethack
[10:11] <terlmann> try suduko
[10:12] <mobutu> counterstrike
[10:12] <mike> Gnea, That's what I did though.. I logged in.. tried to change it.. the screen goes all mental and I can't see anything.. then it just leaves me with a blank screen (instead of changing the settings back after 15 seconds)
[10:12] <dugurama> you guys are wearing out your memory

[10:13] <brk3> does anyone know how I can get the name of my sound device for use with recordMyDesktop?
[10:13] <jrib> dugurama: you haven't done what I asked
[10:13] <Lekrem> brk3 sure
[10:13] <dugurama> yes I have and it installed to Desktop
[10:13] <terlmann> I have a strange error in one of my games ,and it has happened on other os's.the game ppracer's text ui elements are converted to gibberish for seemingly no reason  when aiglx is enabled.when software rendering is used the framerate is from the 1st century bc but the labels work. any help ?
[10:13] <jrib> surviver: owner is the user account that owns the file, group is the group that owns the file, and other applies to everyone else
[10:13] <brk3> Lekrem: can you tell me? :)
[10:13] <dugurama> jrib
[10:13] <terlmann> could someone hrlp mr ?
[10:13] <Gnea> mike: right - what i'm saying is that, X itself is able to do 1280 just fine - no problems there. the PROBLEM is within gnome itself - it somehow thinks that it should still be set to 1024 and so it's forcing the desktop back to that - so you need to tell gnome to go shove it :)
[10:13] <terlmann> me*
[10:13] <jbellis> how do i get the install disk to actually install instead of booting into livecd mode
[10:14] <jrib> jbellis: double click on the "install" icon on the desktop
[10:14] <surviver> jrib, iam now logged into as user or owner with other words? it an account of me
[10:14] <Shaftino> jbellis, Use the alternate
[10:14] <jbellis> jrib: there's no shortcut?
[10:14] <mike> ooooh I see.. I'm doing it through System.. Preferences.. Screen resolution at the moment.. is that wrong?
[10:14] <comosicus> i have wine and i'm using an old version of video activex....i whant to install a new version but i must uninstall the old oane.....i don't know how to do that
[10:14] <Flannel> jbellis: the shortcut isto use the alternate CD, which boots straight into a textmode installer
[10:14] <jrib> jbellis: what do you mean?
[10:14] <Shaftino> !alternate | jbellis
[10:14] <Lekrem> brk3 brb
[10:14] <ubotu> jbellis: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[10:14] <jbellis> tx Shaftino
[10:14] <Gnea> mike: if that's not doing it, try right clicking on the desktop and trying there
[10:15] <jrib> surviver: what do you want to do?
[10:15] <mike> I dont havea  resolution option on the desktop :(
[10:15] <surviver> jrib, i think i got it let me try :D i try to mount my partition rw for my account not only for root
[10:15] <mike> and the other way gave me a scrambled screen when I tried to change it last time :(
[10:15] <jrib> surviver: no, use chmod/chown on the mounted partition
[10:15] <dugurama> ctrl+alt+right arrow
[10:15] <Gnea> mike: what about ctrl+alt++ ?
[10:16] <Gnea> mike: or ctrl+alt+-
[10:16] <jrib> surviver: for example, to make your user the owner and your user's default group the group:  sudo chown -R $USER: /media/sda4
[10:16] <surviver> jrib, i was trying out sonthing like this : chmod u+rwx /media/sda4?
[10:16] <dugurama> enable desktop effects
[10:16] <mike> stuck at 1024 :(
[10:16] <Lekrem> brk3 System --> Preferences --> Hardware Information
[10:16] <jrib> surviver: sure, but since root is the owner, that only gives root those permissions
[10:16] <AnObfuscator> I'm installing 64 bit ubuntu to evalute it, but I'm retaining my 32bit partition. do I need separate swap partitions?
[10:16] <AlestorJN> Okay I'm going to go ahead and ask: how do I rename volumes via Terminal?
[10:16] <brk3> Lekrem: thanks alot!
[10:16] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: no
[10:16] <wietz0r> Awesome, new ubuntu pickup everything including propietary wifi
[10:16] <Gnea> mike: ok, then you'll have to reset the gnome settings: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[10:16] <wietz0r> I ove it
[10:16] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: sparc or amd64?
[10:17] <AnObfuscator> amd64
[10:17] <mike> ok..
[10:17] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: I didn't know there WAS an spark Ubuntu
[10:17] <surviver> jrib, oke so on my way i need to give this infact to the group? or other?
[10:17] <jrib> dugurama: do you understand what you need to do?
[10:17] <dugurama> How do I change my Downloads folder?
[10:17] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: popcon.ubuntu.com
[10:17] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: i run one at werk
[10:17] <dugurama> jrib
[10:17] <jrib> surviver: you need to change the actual owner or group or both
[10:18] <jrib> dugurama: in firefox preferences
[10:18] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: nice, that is very useful to know. :-)
[10:18] <sx66> how do you set the default backlight dimmer to less than 11min of the default?
[10:19] <surviver> jrib, nice it worked but ill give it a better look cause iam bit of confused at some part :D
[10:19] <Gnea> sx66: the backlight dimmer of *what*?
[10:19] <sx66> Gnea: of the powersettings.
[10:19] <weeeeb> nothing still seems to be working. Same error.
[10:19] <Gnea> sx66: laptop?
[10:20] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: not like they're great machines. i'd exchange any of them against an amd64 one
[10:20] <sx66> Gnea: yes...
[10:20] <Linracoon> Gnea: hello?
[10:20] <Gnea> Linracoon: hi
[10:20] <Linracoon> did you find the solution for the usb wifi adapter?
[10:20] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: yeah, but I know people who have old, unused ultraSPARC boxes lying around, so I'd like to play with one of them
[10:21] <AnObfuscator> It would be a fun experiment, at least
[10:21] <weeeeb> if i was trying to install something in the terminal, messed up, could that cause the error?
[10:21] <Gnea> Linracoon: i'm like that blue fish in Finding Nemo... you gotta keep up if you want me to remember...
[10:21] <Linracoon> Gnea: about the router smc 7904wbra2?
[10:21] <Gnea> ah ok
[10:21] <Gnea> Linracoon: did you read the websites i gave you?
[10:21] <weeeeb> how can i safely continue the install through the terminal, my knowledge of terminal commands sucks'
[10:21] <Linracoon> i did
[10:21] <Gnea> and?
[10:21] <sx66> Gnea: so, what do you think, how do I get it below the 11min default?
[10:21] <Linracoon> i dont find any solution for it
[10:21] <surviver> jrib, little question in ur command u gave me u set -R $USER:  so -r stands for not reading and the $user stands for all users? right?
[10:22] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: it's fun, but i'd never run kde or gnome on one
[10:22] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: that bad, eh?
[10:22] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: no. but gnome/kde are that bad
[10:22] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: the sparc are great compared to that software
[10:22] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: you know the non-ultra sparcs were great with openstep
[10:23] <Gnea> sx66: http://spidertools.com/ub_power.php
[10:23] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: it's just todays software is written worse :)
[10:23] <Devyll> can anyone tell me a code editor with upload on save feature ? (when you save the script it uploads it to the remote location)
[10:23] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: ha, I see. OpenStep ran on SPARC?
[10:23] <Gnea> Linracoon: oh yeah, you didn't tell me what kernel you're running
[10:23] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: yeah. and on hppa, and intel cpu
[10:23] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: I thought it was just ported to x86, then got bought.
[10:23] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: no it was quad fat binaries
[10:24] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: that's why the binaries had NIHS in the anme (next, intel, hppa, sparc)
[10:24] <Linracoon> GnarlyBob: 2.6.17
[10:24] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: intel was just the most popular one (because it was cheap)
[10:24] <Linracoon> Gnea: wait let me check
[10:24] <Theleo> used the following command to make a fat 32 filesystem on one of my disks(after ofcourse i partiotined it) mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sdb1.No errors.Rebooting in uncle bills O/S and i see the hard disk in device manager but i cant see in my computer.It seems that there is no letter assigned to it.Any ideas?
[10:24] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: Yeauch. SO that's where Apple got its Fat Binaries.
[10:24] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: yeah, apple didn't invent that. NeXT did
[10:24] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: like oh so many other things as well
[10:25] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: they only bought it
[10:25] <CTho_> of gxine, democacy tv, tvtime, xawtv, which do I want?
[10:25] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: Well, that's pretty much all of OSX :P
[10:25] <jrib> Devyll: you could use vim
[10:25] <taigeR_> hey
[10:25] <neol> i have to change my fat32 partition to mount only in read mode.. so i thought of changing fstab from rw to ro but i am not finding " rw " option in fstab here is the fstab content < http://pastebin.com/935408 >
[10:25] <ParanoyaM> hi guys
[10:25] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: all the cocoa.h is nothing else but #imports of ApplicationKit.h and FoundationKit.h :)
[10:25] <ParanoyaM> can anybody tell me how restart samba
[10:25] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: no the crappy part of it is Mac OS (but it's really shit, they should've left it away)
[10:26] <dcarros> /etc/init.d/samba restart
[10:26] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: Quartz? NExT. Safari? KHTML. Darwin? Mach + FreeBSD. Cocoa? hah, NSView, etc.
[10:26] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: namely hfs/hfs+, resource forks, the fixed menu bar on top, scrollbar on the left. carbon...

[10:26] <Devyll> jrib:  something .. less complicated ? ..
[10:26] <sx66> how do you set the default setting of 11min lower on the power mag. of a laptop? it stops at 11min
[10:27] <taigeR_> tell me
[10:27] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: the os underneath, doesn't matter. NeXT API was portable
[10:27] <Linracoon> Gnea: hello?

[10:27] <alesan> I'm getting tired to type my (rather long) root password every few minutes
[10:27] <neol> i have to change my fat32 partition to mount only in read mode.. so i thought of changing fstab from rw to ro but i am not finding " rw " option in fstab here is the fstab content < http://pastebin.com/935408 >
[10:27] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: here, but prepare for tears: http://gnu.ethz.ch/www.levenez.com/
[10:27] <Gnea> alesan: use sudo
[10:27] <jrib> Devyll: did you try using gedit?  I *think* it has taht feature
[10:27] <AnObfuscator> tarzeau: Yeah, it's too bad Apple killed the OpenStep porting
[10:27] <alesan> and people could have it already because of the many times I have to type it :)
[10:27] <alesan> Gnea, you miss the point
[10:28] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: not just that, they made it all butt slow
[10:28] <kitche> neol: just add ro to /etc/fstab
[10:28] <Gnea> alesan: no, i don't. use sudo, and change your password.
[10:28] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: people are impressed when i show them how much faster openstep 4.2 on crap hardware is compared to Mac OS X
[10:28] <alesan> Gnea, I do NOT want to type the root password.
[10:28] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: http://www.paullynch.org/NeXTSTEP/MacWorld.97.html
[10:28] <Gnea> alesan: sudo uses the user password, not root's.
[10:28] <Gnea> alesan: try it: sudo su
[10:28] <tarzeau> AnObfuscator: i'm still impressed how Apple people managed to make the shit sooo uberslow
[10:28] <alesan> Gnea, or sudo -i that's not the point I repeat
[10:28] <Flannel> Gnea, alesan, don't sudo su.  `sudo -i` if you really want a root shell.
