[10:51] <karthik> guys help needed... during my ubuntu start up i get an error "Failed to Initalized HAL!!" .....wht can i do?
[10:51] <nicholim> thanks all
[10:52] <neozen> Korgmatose: lol
[10:52] <AngryElf> nicholim, are you sure you dont have two instances of X running?
[10:52] <neozen> Korgmatose: what is the deal behind the version numbers anyway... they don't seem to be following any kind of systematic pattern?
[10:52] <dauoalagio2> eck, i see...i just ran that hopefully it works - thanks
[10:52] <neozen> Korgmatose: they just based on how much they change?
[10:52] <Seveas> neozen, they couldn't be more systematic....
[10:52] <BLG> Will the Final version of Fiesty be out next week?
[10:52] <nicholim> AngryElf: No, I only have 1
[10:53] <Seveas> BLG, that's the plan
[10:53] <nicholim> AngryElf: I'm using Twinview
[10:53] <BLG> Seveas: Great
[10:53] <neozen> BLG: should be released in 4 days
[10:53] <nicholim> AngryElf: Did you want 2 x's?
[10:53] <karthik> My system restarted due to power off....Then on during my ubuntu start up i get an error "Failed to Initalized HAL!!"
[10:53] <jasonmarcell> seveas: so i got my wireless card working (sorta) but i have only an ipv6 address and not an ipv4, how do i get an ipv4 only?
[10:53] <neozen> Seveas: perhaps I'm just tired today
[10:53] <Korgmatose> neozen, it's "year,month"
[10:53] <neozen> Korgmatose: O.o
[10:53] <neozen> Korgmatose: yeah... I must be sleepy
[10:53] <neozen> Korgmatose: lol
[10:53] <tjcarter> eck: =)  Just 30 megs more?  That's what, 1MB per extra library?
[10:54] <dauoalagio2> eck, no luck
[10:54] <eck> tjcarter: i'm sure you have a lot of the gnome shared objects loaded anyway
[10:54] <tjcarter> Actually, XFCE has become rather plump in its resource usage too.
[10:54] <Pathogen246> anyone familiar with gDesklets? specifically rhythmlet?
[10:54] <eck> dauoalagio2: what do you mean?
[10:54] <neozen> karthik: that sucks mon
[10:54] <andy_> is the file browser included per default or is it a plugin?
[10:54] <karthik> yes noezen
[10:54] <neozen> karthik: doing anything strange before it did this?
[10:54] <dauoalagio2> eck,
[10:54] <dauoalagio2> joe@joe-platform:~/Desktop$ cat /dev/hdd > foo.iso
[10:54] <dauoalagio2> cat: /dev/hdd: Input/output error
[10:55] <karthik> i was downloading.then due to power off my system got restarted
[10:55] <eck> dauoalagio2: do you have enough space?
[10:55] <eck> dauoalagio2: check with df -h
[10:56] <dauoalagio2> yeah i have 23 gigs open
[10:56] <dauoalagio2> eck, yeah i have 23 gigs open
[10:56] <AngryElf> nicholim, mythtv looks wacked out when it's split down the middle of two screens :(
[10:56] <eck> maybe you need to be root
[10:56] <AngryElf> i think I want two Xs
[10:56] <eck> try it with sudo
[10:57] <nicholim> eck, that's what I told him
[10:57] <neozen> AngryElf: um.... I don't think so....
[10:57] <neozen> AngryElf: take a look @ Xinerama
[10:57] <nicholim> AngryElf: the nvidia config needs you to be root in order to do anything
[10:57] <dauoalagio2> eck, okay one se cond
[10:57] <dauoalagio2> second*
[10:58] <Juancab> Can anyone help me, I got this problem: http://pastebin.ca/440092
[10:58] <AngryElf> neozen, the nvidia driver does just that, things just dont maximize correctly
[10:58] <eck> Juancab: you ran out of disk space
[10:59] <eck> Juancab: run df -h
[10:59] <dauoalagio2> ekc, same error
[10:59] <tjcarter> eck: That's probably a big part of why XFCE isn't as lightweight as it used to be.
[10:59] <Juancab> eck: in a normal terminal?
[10:59] <CheesyJedi> how do I set the keyboard shortcuts on my laptop that control volume control a certain device and track to control? (e.g.: PCM instead of Master?)
[10:59] <eck> Juancab: yeah
[10:59] <nicholim> AngryElf: Things do maximize correctly for me, but I think you need xinerama
[10:59] <Juancab> eck: I am in the graphic interface but with the CD
[10:59] <Jowi> Juancab, "sudo apt-get clean" should free some space for you
[11:00] <eck> tjcarter: the problem is that as soon as you start opening up non-xfce programs, you're going to start loading up a lot ofthe gnome/kde libraries anyway
[11:00] <Capslock118> hello, i was wondering if anyone knew how i can remove the hard drive icons off of my desktop, i cant seem to find the option to do so
[11:00] <nicholim> AngryElf: as well as run the nvidia x server settings as root to config stuff correctly
[11:00] <Juancab> Jowi: Didn't work
[11:00] <Jowi> Juancab, then if you have /home on the same partition it's time to start cleaning up manually.
[11:01] <eck> dauoalagio2: try dd if=/dev/hdd of=foo.iso
[11:01] <dauoalagio2> eck, i was just gonna ask that...it's been going for a few seconds now
[11:01] <Juancab> eck: I did, what now?
[11:01] <eck> Juancab: that should show you your disk usage... i am guessing something is full
[11:02] <dauoalagio2> eck, i got an "input/output error"
[11:02] <eck> again?
[11:02] <asc> !upgrade
[11:02] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:02] <Meshezabeel> I can't get line input working, how do I look at sound mixer?
[11:02] <Juancab> eck, Jowi: yes the / partition is full
[11:02] <neozen> Capslock118: lol... just the other day I was helping someone get them on
[11:02] <eck> dauoalagio2: look at the output of "dmesg | tail" and see if there is anything that looks like an error
[11:03] <dauoalagio2> eck, yeah few
[11:03] <wdr1_> is there anyone to have an interactive boot?  (in trying to setup my wireless card, ubuntu now locks & freezes in the bootup process on networking)
[11:03] <Capslock118> neozen, haha...well i dont like the clutterness of it to be honest
[11:03] <wdr1_> hopefully i can say skip it during it boot & then disable it?
[11:03] <neozen> Capslock118: lol
[11:03] <eck> dauoalagio2: if you pastebin it i'll see if it makes sense to me
[11:03] <andy_> how can I add a place in xubuntu(xfce)
[11:03] <Juancab> eck, Jowi: yes the / partition is full
[11:03] <dauoalagio2> eck, okay
[11:03] <neozen> Capslock118: I can understand that.... though I think its a great feature
[11:03] <neozen> Capslock118: plug in a disk... it pops up
[11:03] <eck> Juancab: as Jowi said, apt-get clean will remove quite a bit of space, but if you're running out you might want to consider repartitioning
[11:04] <Jowi> Juancab, remove as much as you can from /tmp then go to /home and remove big files/directories such as ~/.googleearth (if you have that installed, that dir is 300MB alone). you also can remove ~/.thumbnails
[11:04] <Excelsi0r> Hello guys. I encounter a problem : when I launch some games, my computer freeze and there's no way to get it back, I'm forced to hard-reboot it.
[11:05] <wdr1_> any grub/boot experts in the room?
[11:05] <neozen> Excelsi0r: did you create a swap partition?
[11:05] <Pathogen246> anyone help me install Steam?
[11:05] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, what type of games? is it SDL, wine, GL...?
[11:05] <eck> Juancab: the baobab program will also help you find where all the disk space is going
[11:05] <Excelsi0r> neozen: yep I have a 1.16Go swap part
[11:06] <starz> !paste
[11:06] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:06] <neozen> Excelsi0r: jeebus that's huge
[11:06] <Excelsi0r> Jowi: I dont know, I had it with supertux and racer.
[11:06] <neozen> Excelsi0r: used to have X go boom on a friend's comp when she'd load up stuff
[11:06] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, both use hardware accelleration. what video card do you have?
[11:06] <eck> having too much swap space is not good
[11:06] <neozen> Excelsi0r: come to find out she didn't have swap... and only 24mb ram in the box
[11:06] <dauoalagio2> eck, http://rafb.net/p/jjuIOI34.html
[11:06] <mikerobi> how can i reinitialize input devices without restarting X?
[11:06] <wdr1_> any pointers on next steps for fixing a crashing boot?
[11:07] <Excelsi0r> I have 1 Go RAM and 1.16 Go Swap
[11:07] <nicholim> eck: how much is too much swap and why is it bad?
[11:07] <neozen> Excelsi0r: beastie would run completely out of ram and start panicking
[11:07] <Excelsi0r> is having too much swap a problem ?
[11:07] <neozen> eck: indeed
[11:07] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, no
[11:07] <neozen> eck: how much is too much?
[11:07] <rambo3> enough +1
[11:07] <mikerobi> I ran out of swap once, it wasn't pretty
[11:08] <Excelsi0r> neozen: well, like me
[11:08] <kitche> neozen: nice waste of space :)
[11:08] <Pathogen246> Anyone know how to get counterstrike source running in ubuntu?
[11:08] <eck> if you have too much swap, you will be screwed when a program starts using up all your ram and then pushes out all your other apps to swap. it will take you like 10 minutes to be able to switch to a console and kill the app
[11:08] <neozen> kitche: lol
[11:08] <xyz-abc> hey neozen, can u help me in private?
[11:08] <kitche> Pathogen246: wine
[11:08] <eck> in that case you just want to OOM kill it
[11:08] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, I would verify that you have the correct video card driver first of all.
[11:08] <reuben> i'm missing two disks after my upgrade to feisty. they worked for one boot, after install. but not subsequently. fdisk doesn't see them. mount can't see them. they're missing from /dev/disk/by-uuid, but they are present in /dev/disk/path
[11:08] <reuben> ideas?
[11:08] <reuben> (err /dev/disk/by-path)
[11:08] <Pathogen246> kitche: I got wine, but i don't knwo what to do next
[11:08] <neozen> kitche: I'd change it... if anyone could provide me with a size which would be more correct for my situation
[11:09] <neozen> kitche: believe me... I'd love to get that 1gb back
[11:09] <mikerobi> Pathogen246: isn't it possible to limit the max amount of memory allocated to a single app?
[11:09] <kitche> neozen: 0 swap is good unless you play with kernel cores
[11:09] <Excelsi0r> Jowi: I don't think my video driver is a problem because i used to play some games before, and it was working
[11:09] <neozen> kitche: no... no kernel cores
[11:10] <eck> kitche: i read that if youhave 0 swap the kernel might use your available ram too conservatively, so it is better to have some
[11:10] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, then what did you do between "working" and "not working"? a system upgrade? a driver upgrade? removed programs?
[11:10] <mikerobi> It has been my past experience that linux is not very gracefull when it runs out of swap space
[11:10] <neozen> mikerobi: mine too
[11:10] <Admin__> hey neozen, could u help me in private?
[11:10] <dauoalagio2> eck, anything?
[11:10] <neozen> Admin__: ......I'll help you out here... if its all the same to you
[11:10] <eck> dauoalagio2: i think there is a problem with your cd drive
[11:10] <xyz-abc> well ok
[11:10] <Excelsi0r> jowi : I don't know, all I've done recently was upgrades with SYnaptic
[11:11] <dauoalagio2> i'll try the over, eck, it could be the disc
[11:11] <aleksanteri> i'll put a fast one... cmd to get the ubuntu version?
[11:11] <eck> dauoalagio2: or at least the kernel drivers for it
[11:11] <xyz-abc> i want to network an xp and an ubuntu pc
[11:11] <CheesyJedi> hey what's a good system startup sound to use? (I don't like the default edgy)
[11:11] <neozen> .........changing name and asking for help again.... don't do that xyz
[11:11] <mikerobi> anyone know if it is possible to reinitialize input drivers without restarting X?
[11:11] <xyz-abc> but i just fail........
[11:11] <xyz-abc> nezon: the ubuntu pc cannot see my xp pc
[11:11] <eck> dauoalagio2: or maybe the cd is bad?
[11:11] <neozen> xyz-abc: hmm... you need to install a samba client on the ubuntu pc
[11:11] <dauoalagio2> eck, definitely could be
[11:11] <Antrillion> Why does firestarter prevent any LAN access through the adapter not connected to the internet when internet connection sharing is disabled?
[11:11] <eck> dauoalagio2: it looks like it is having problems reading certain sectors
[11:11] <tuskernini> I have kopete crashing... where can i go for help other than #kopete...
[11:11] <E42> yo , im using mpdscribble to scribble my tracks on last.fm but everytime i listen to the end i get a message : Illegal Seek - wtf means that !?
[11:11] <xyz-abc> neozen: its already installed
[11:12] <neozen> xyz-abc: well then I can't help you more then that
[11:12] <xyz-abc> nezon: you're my last hope
[11:12] <neozen> xyz-abc: I haven't messed around with samba all that much
[11:12] <neozen> xyz-abc: um... there's over 1000 people in this room
[11:12] <neozen> xyz-abc: someone should be able to help you
[11:12] <charding> How is the update process from suse ubuntu? I have opensuse 10.0 and want to update or change totally but I don't want to format
[11:12] <xyz-abc> neozon: actually nobody helped me
[11:12] <charding> from suse to ubuntu I meant
[11:12] <xyz-abc> everyone links me to !NTFS or !Samba
[11:13] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - Whats up?
[11:13] <aleksanteri> !version
[11:13] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[11:13] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, ok. if you did a system upgrade and it replaced the kernel you might want to reboot and select the previous one.
[11:13] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: my Ubuntu PC cannot see my XP pc
[11:13] <aleksanteri> where's ubotu? :|
[11:13] <neozen> xyz-abc: and have you read the tutorials linked to ?
[11:13] <eck> E42: that means the programmer messed up
[11:13] <Excelsi0r> jowi : I know that, when I got these freezes, my speakers go with some buggy sounds like as if I was reading a scratched audio-cd
[11:13] <xyz-abc> yes
[11:13] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - when you say cant see - what do you mean
[11:13] <Hans-Martin> I'm having trouble accessing a camera connected via USB. udev does not seem to set up the permission and group correctly as specified in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules. Kernel is 2.6.17-11-386. Any ideas?
[11:13] <aleksanteri> oh :P
[11:13] <eck> E42: the program is trying to read past the end of the file
[11:13] <aleksanteri> thx ubotu
[11:13] <aleksanteri> :)
[11:13] <E42> eck: so what shall i do to fix it ;C ?
[11:14] <aleksanteri> !botsnack
[11:14] <ubotu> Yum!
[11:14] <eternaljoy> anyone know where I can get the latest Super Grub ISO?  I cant find it anywhere.  ANyone know pls?
[11:14] <neozen> xyz-abc: in order to do things with linux... sometimes you must learn new things
[11:14] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: for example "host <IP_ADDRESS>" or "ping <IP_ADDRESS>" dont return any results
[11:14] <mikerobi> Hans-Martin: I found the best solution is a card reader
[11:14] <eternaljoy> !super grub
[11:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about super grub - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:14] <rambo3> !info grub2

[11:14] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[11:14] <xyz-abc> nezone: i've read belive me
[11:14] <DeciSnel> Night night!
[11:14] <Excelsi0r> jowi : as far as I've seen, I'm still on the same kernel, although I had an upgrades that reinstalled my actual kernel (it even changed my menu.lst)
[11:14] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - OK first things first then - that looks like a networking issue to start with,
[11:14] <kneeki> Are there ports I have to unblock in Unbuntu to get Synergy working? My Unbuntu (server) and Windows (client) are having troubles connecting
[11:14] <eck> E42: file a bug report? there might already be a patch floating around somewhere if you check upstream
[11:15] <neozen> xyz-abc: so wait.... the beast won't respond to ping?
[11:15] <wdr1_> kneeki: i got it working out fo the box
[11:15] <eck> E42: you would have to recompile it though to get a fix
[11:15] <xyz-abc> neozen: yup
[11:15] <wdr1_> can you ssh from each machine to the other?
[11:15] <E42> eck: ok i;ll try thx
[11:15] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - could you describe your network briefly?
[11:15] <kneeki> wdr1: oh?
[11:15] <Hans-Martin> mikerobi: well it did work at some time, so it should now (it's an old canon ixus which is well supported by gphoto2). It jusst seems like udev does not react correctly
[11:15] <kneeki> wdr1: Using quick synergy?
[11:15] <neozen> xyz-abc: proper terminology helps alot... "cannot see" can mean so very many things
[11:15] <dauoalagio2> eck, a different cd worked
[11:15] <neozen> kneeki: quick synergy?
[11:15] <ajehuk> neozen - doesnt help that no one asked what he meant...
[11:15] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: the Ubuntu pc is connected wirelessly to a wirelessly to a wireless URS8054 router
[11:16] <kneeki> Quick Synergy is just an app you can install through Add/Remove that adds a graphical GUI to synergy
[11:16] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: the Ubuntu pc is connected via ethernet cable to the same router
[11:16] <Excelsi0r> jowi : don't you think i'll better have to reinstall the sdl library ?
[11:16] <wdr1_> kneeki: i just d/l'ed and compiled it on ubuntu
[11:16] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, "uname -a" so you know for sure if you're using the new or old one. if you still use the old one then it might be a driver upgrade that cause your problem. hard for me to say...
[11:16] <neozen> xyz-abc: ok.... are you sure both of them have a solid connection to this router?
[11:16] <kneeki> wdr1: Oh, I don't know how to compile stuffs =(
[11:16] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - so one router, two machines, one cabled and one not cabled?
[11:16] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: I can control the Ubuntu PC from my XP pc via RealVNC
[11:16] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: yes
[11:17] <Excelsi0r> jowi : i'm still on the 2.6.17-11
[11:17] <nixnoob> how do i blacklist a module on feisty?
[11:17] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - can you ping the ubuntu pc from the windows pc?
[11:17] <Excelsi0r> but I saw a reinstallation of the 2.6.17-11
[11:17] <eck> nixnoob: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[11:17] <xyz-abc> lemme try
[11:17] <reuben> (retry) i'm missing two disks after my upgrade to feisty. they worked for one boot, after install. but not subsequently. fdisk doesn't see them. mount can't see them. any ideas?
[11:17] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, I don't know how to resolve this unfortunatley...
[11:17] <Excelsi0r> fu..
[11:17] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: yes
[11:17] <aleksanteri> kneeki: it's not hard at all
[11:17] <neozen> reuben: apparently, this is a known issue w/ feisty....
[11:17] <Excelsi0r> hope it will work on feisty :-/
[11:17] <ajehuk> but you cannot ping the windows pc from the ubuntu pc?
[11:17] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: not vice versa
[11:18] <neozen> reuben: one of the reasons it's still not released
[11:18] <neozen> reuben: as stable
[11:18] <reuben> neozen: that sucks. are there workarounds?
[11:18] <neozen> reuben: in the works to my knowledge
[11:18] <WaZ`> Anyone know how to enable direct rendering on an intel i945GM ?
[11:18] <kneeki> aleks: oh? Do you know of a guide to teach me?
[11:18] <help> could anyone give me a  guide for n00bs on how to install or find out about linux
[11:18] <eck> WaZ`: it should just work
[11:18] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, there should be a way to install the earlier version of the kernel (even if it got the same name 2.6.17-11) but I don't know how. apt-cache policy should give the alternatives for you.
[11:18] <reuben> neozen: ok, thanks
[11:18] <WaZ`> eck: I know...
[11:18] <neozen> reuben: sorry i couldn't be of more help
[11:18] <WaZ`> eck: glxinfo says no ;-)
[11:18] <eck> WaZ`: my 855gm does
[11:19] <help> could anyone give me a guide for n00bs on how to install or find out about linux
[11:19] <eck> WaZ`: check your xorg log
[11:19] <nicholim> help: wikipedia
[11:19] <Jowi> Excelsi0r, dont know if apt-get or dpkg is the right one to use. I bet someone in here knows
[11:19] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - first off I would look at your touter, make sure that there isnt some sort of vlan set up with a firewall between the wireless and wired connections (implemented via vlan or otherwise) - can you give me the make and model of the router again?
[11:19] <WaZ`> eck: I have
[11:19] <ajehuk> *router
[11:19] <neozen> help: yeah.... take a look around ubuntu.com
[11:19] <Excelsi0r> jowi : okay, i think i'm gonna give up and wait for feisty, thanks anyway

[11:20] <duelboot> how can I rename multiple files in a directory.   when I enter "mv -T *.mod *.mpg", I getmv: extra operand `mov006.mod'...I've tried multiple ways but am at a lost
[11:20] <Meshezabeel> AngryElf, you mad at me?
[11:20] <Juancab> jowi, eck: are you still there?
[11:20] <eck> jmvidalvia: it depends...
[11:20] <Jowi> WaZ`, no probs at all. Use the i810 driver and install 915resolution if needed. make sure you have a DRI section in xorg.conf as well.
[11:20] <qbert_> do you guys think ubuntu should be used as my web server? or should I use something else?
[11:21] <kitche> jmvidalvia: umm ssh lets you login to the machine like your using it in console mode
[11:21] <eck> jmvidalvia: with ssh anyone who wants the files will need shell acess
[11:21] <neozen> qbert_: ubuntu is most secure out of the box
[11:21] <ajehuk> qbert_ - for internal or external use?
[11:21] <WaZ`> Jowi: ok, ill check the DRI, thx
[11:21] <nicholim> qbert_: windows 95 is the best server os ever
[11:21] <Meshezabeel> qbert_ nah you should use apache as your webserver ;)
[11:21] <eck> jmvidalvia: and with ftp you have the advantage of just being able to access the files in a browser
[11:21] <kitche> sysia__: might want to have your other two clients quit
[11:21] <qbert_> nicholim: i'm not that nieve
[11:21] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: USR8054: http://www.usr.com/support/product-template.asp?prod=8054
[11:21] <harbingdeth> I need help with wine
[11:21] <AngryElf> Meshezabeel, ?
[11:21] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - give me a minute
[11:21] <wdr1_> is there a way to change what run level i boot into?
[11:21] <nicholim> qbert_: *grin*
[11:21] <qbert_> mesh: really? ;D indians run web servers now
[11:21] <qbert_> ajehuk: external
[11:21] <duelboot> qbert_, I used the ubuntu LAMP install along with Joomla and have had no issues
[11:21] <nicholim> qbert_: I'm running an ubuntu server right now
[11:22] <qbert_> neozen: i didn't know that, i just knew debian was a nice flavor from what i read
[11:22] <Meshezabeel> qbert_ tapwe niciagan
[11:22] <neozen> qbert_: our security gurus have been pounding on my server with big sticks for a looooong time now.... and no breakins yet
[11:22] <xyz-abc> ajehuk: 1 thing to keep in mind: when I live-booted into Feisty Fawn on my XP PC, the pc's could share files immediately
[11:22] <jmvidalvia> so: ssh for managinf from outside, and ftp just for getting and sending files. right?
[11:22] <eck> jmvidalvia: if it is just for your own use i would use scp because you already have ssh running, if other people need to be able to get them i would go with ftp
[11:22] <Excelsi0r> thanks for those who answered me, have a good morning/afternoon/evening/night (pick whatever you choose)
[11:22] <duelboot> how can I rename multiple files in a directory.   when I enter "mv -T *.mod *.mpg", I getmv: extra operand `mov006.mod'...I've tried multiple ways but am at a lost
[11:22] <jrib> duelboot: use 'rename'.  Do you know regexp?
[11:22] <kitche> jmvidalvia: if you go the ssh way I have a ssh blacklist script which uses iptables
[11:22] <Jowi> WaZ`, here's my xorg.conf file so you have an idea on how it can look; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15667/ (see bottom of page where the DRI section is)
[11:23] <duelboot> jrib, tried rename and looked up the man, but guess I'm not doing it right...I'll show you the error is a sec
[11:23] <harbingdeth> Does anyone here have experiece with wine?
[11:23] <jrib> duelboot: k
[11:23] <WaZ`> Jowi: yeah I checked, the DRI section is there
[11:23] <Juancab> eck: I found a folder which is 9.2G but is the VM folder (VMWare). There is a folder in /usr/ named /shared/ can I errase everything inside it?
[11:23] <qbert_> wow, ubuntu as a web server sounds pretty nice.  maybe i'll stop my torrent of opensuse 10.2.  you guys think it's a good idea to run a web server in a virtual machine?
[11:23] <jmvidalvia> i'll try scp, thank.
[11:23] <jrib> !anyone | harbingdeth
[11:23] <ubotu> harbingdeth: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:23] <WaZ`> Jowi: ill compare, thanks a lot
[11:23] <eck> Juancab: don't erase anything in /usr
[11:23] <duelboot> rename s/\.mod$// *.mpg  gives me Unrecognized character \xE2 at (eval 1) line 1. jrib
[11:23] <Meshezabeel> qbert_ in all seriousness just make sure you disable all services you don't need and set your security/firewall/deny hosts/etc. properly
[11:23] <jmvidalvia> kitche: what is a ssh blacklist?
[11:23] <neozen> ...anyone know of an irc client that can open up another window which filters the chat based on regular expressions?
[11:23] <kitche> qbert_: my webserver runs in a virtual private server
[11:23] <Juancab> eck: what else then?
[11:23] <duelboot> jrib, how should I type it
[11:23] <qbert_> mesh: sounds appropriate
[11:23] <jrib> duelboot: use ' not
[11:23] <neozen> its really hard to monitor a single conversation in here
[11:23] <ajehuk> qbert_ - ubuntu would be fine in server mode, ou may want to look at debian stable too.  I would suggest that depending on load - the out of the box configuration of ubuntu may not be ideal, but in that case any Distro you choose will need tweaking.  Ubuntu would work, and work well though
[11:24] <kitche> jmvidalvia: it blacklists anyone trying to login 5 times and doesn't get the password right
[11:24] <eck> Juancab: i would just go with removing thins in /home, and if that is not enough then repartition
[11:24] <duelboot> jrib, can you give me the full line?
[11:24] <kitche> jmvidalvia: bans them from connecting
[11:24] <harbingdeth> I'm having issues running SWG in wine the graphics are realy choppy but everything looks good is there a way to smooth them out?
[11:24] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - OK so you could share files more recently...
[11:24] <duelboot> oh hold one jrib
[11:24] <jmvidalvia> oh! i see
[11:24] <OltreIrc`37870> ciao
[11:24] <eck> jmvidalvia: ugh.. just use ssh keys and don't bother with the deny hosts stuff
[11:24] <jrib> duelboot: but, that is a pretty useless command.  You will replace the .mod at the end of any files that end in .mpg
[11:24] <OltreIrc`37870> !lista
[11:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lista - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:24] <Jowi> WaZ`, I'm on a Intel Mac Mini though. not sure if other mainboards have problems or not. mine work like a charm running Beryl
[11:24] <neozen> xyz-abc: think the firewall on your xp machine might be getting in the way?
[11:25] <qbert_> I think you guys have sold me.  I was considering fedora and/or opensuse... what'd I expect in #ubuntu.  nonetheless, I'm familiar with it ubuntu so it should work.
[11:25] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - do you have a firewall installed on the windows box?
[11:25] <jmvidalvia> i see two different ideas...ummm
[11:25] <duelboot> jrib...that's okay I'm trying to rename multiple files from .mod to .mpg  so i will switch .mod with .mpg
[11:25] <WaZ`> Jowi: it should work, I have no idea why it doesn't :D
[11:25] <qbert_> any1 think it's a good idea to run DSLinux and virtualize ubuntu server?
[11:25] <kitche> eck: has nothing to do with deny hosts
[11:25] <jrib> duelboot: right you want s/\.mod$/.mpg/
[11:25] <eck> jmvidalvia: if you block based on ip address the blacklist is going to get huge really fast, and eventually that could slow it down. if you are using ssh keys you don't have anything to worry about
[11:26] <eck> kitche: iptables blacklist is basically the same thing
[11:26] <kitche> eck: well unless your keys get compromised
[11:26] <Meshezabeel> qbert_ also if you didn't know there's also a server installation disc
[11:26] <eck> kitche: yeah, in which case your blacklist won't help
[11:26] <kitche> eck: I use keys and a blacklist
[11:26] <jmvidalvia> thank you every body: I'm going to google for a while...
[11:26] <qbert_> meshezabeel: right. I'm familiar.  I suppose an old fashion native OS could work as a web server.  any1 in here think i should use vmware instead?
[11:27] <eck> if your keys are compromised and someone logs in before you can revoke the keys, you are completely screwed no matter waht
[11:27] <ajehuk> qbert_ - why do you feel you need to virtualise the OS?
[11:27] <Jowi> WaZ`, I tell you what... I had probs with 2.6.17-11-generic so I run 2.6.17-10-generic kernel instead. I use the standard i810 driver in xorg.conf.
[11:27] <qbert_> ajehuk: would make it remarkably easier to move the server to another computer
[11:27] <Juancab> eck: I don't think removing thing in home will work, /home is in a different partition, and the problem is with the one that boots
[11:27] <Jowi> WaZ`, can you post your xorg.conf to the pastebin?
[11:28] <WaZ`> Jowi: okay, is there another driver I could use? (i915?)
[11:28] <ajehuk> qbert_ - it would is that likley something you will need to do?
[11:28] <xyz-abc> neozen, ajehuk, I'll be back in 10-20 minutes, please dont run away
[11:28] <neozen> ok
[11:28] <EkToBoT> any one know how i make the sounds work in the snes emulator i pulled out of the repositorys? the emulator runs fine but no sound??
[11:28] <WaZ`> Jowi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15668/
[11:28] <ajehuk> kk
[11:28] <qbert_> ajehuk: i think so, lol thanks for the sort of dialectic.
[11:28] <harbingdeth> I'm having issues running SWG in wine the graphics are realy choppy but everything looks good is there a way to smooth them out?
[11:28] <WaZ`> Jowi: only difference i see is deb (which i believe is for dual screens) and XAANpixmaps wierd option
[11:28] <WaZ`> in device
[11:29] <eck> Juancab: did you remove everything in the apt cache?
[11:29] <WaZ`> Jowi:  dbe not deb
[11:29] <ajehuk> qbert_ - best thing to do is go figure out what you want to do - virtualisation is a bit of a trade off against performance, etc.. - you've got to go pick the combination that best fits whatever it is you want to do...
[11:29] <Juancab> eck: where is /apt?
[11:29] <duelboot> jrib, typing rename s/\.mod$/.mpg  doesn't do anything...even tried rename 's/\.mod$/' .mpg but get Substitution replacement not terminated at (eval 1) line 1.    What am I doing wrong?
[11:29] <eck> Juancab: you can delete some of the stuff in /var, but if you are not doing any server type things i bet /var will be fairly empty
[11:30] <Jowi> WaZ`, yeah, try to add the 	Option  "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" option.
[11:30] <jrib> duelboot: you forgot the / at the end
[11:30] <WaZ`> Jowi: okay ill try that
[11:30] <duelboot> jrib, did it too, to no avail...aaarrrrggggghhhhh
[11:30] <Jowi> WaZ`, dbe is "double buffer extension"
[11:30] <EkToBoT> Any one used the snes emulator??
[11:30] <qbert_> i'm thinking damn small linux as host and ubuntu server as guest inside vmware
[11:30] <Juancab> eck: /var is one of the heaviest folders
[11:30] <eck> Juancab: /var/cache/apt, it will be emptied when you run apt-get clean
[11:30] <neozen> gah!
[11:30] <WaZ`> Jowi: thats for dual screens right?
[11:30] <neozen> who know's xchat?
[11:30] <jrib> duelboot: paste the whole command you entered and the output on pastebin
[11:30] <Jowi> WaZ`, no, it's for double-buffering.
[11:30] <EkToBoT> bah
[11:31] <WaZ`> lol ok
[11:31] <AngryElf> woot, dual display working :)
[11:31] <eck> Juancab: which folders in /var are taking up space?
[11:31] <neozen> I just made the menubar go away.. and I don't know how to get it back
[11:31] <duelboot> jrib, I'll do it multiple ways and paste it...give me a couple mins
[11:31] <neozen> lol
[11:31] <Jowi> WaZ`, dbe make no difference for DRI so you can ignore it for now
[11:31] <Pathogen246> I just installed WINE, how do I get into the folders it creates?
[11:31] <jrib> duelboot: just do this one:  rename 's/\.mod$/.mpg/' *.mod
[11:31] <neozen> brb
[11:31] <WaZ`> Jowi: yeah, be back in a minute
[11:32] <ajehuk> Pathogen246 - I think they should be located in your home directory within .wine
[11:32] <WaZ`> Jowi: If i don't come back, thanks for your help ;-)
[11:32] <Jowi> WaZ`, you're welcome
[11:32] <duelboot> jrbi, YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  That worked perfectly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[11:32] <jmvidalvia> last question about ubuntu-server: apache is already working. I put a html file in /var/www and it works. But, what about if I want to host two diferent sites in the same machine, with diferents www.name.com ?
[11:32] <Pathogen246> ajehuk: there is no .wine directory
[11:32] <duelboot> jrib, thank you very much
[11:32] <jrib> duelboot: were you doing *.mpg at the end before?
[11:33] <CheesyJedi> I need a good network manager that supports ndiswrapper and will be able to search for access points on it's own (without me having to enter the essid). anyone have a suggestion?
[11:33] <duelboot> I had tried it, but didn't include the .mpg in the 's/\.mod$/.mpg/' part
[11:33] <Juancab> eck: one called /vm, but as I told you, that's the one for vmware, and there is the info I need to recover
[11:33] <ajehuk> Pathogen246 - it would be hidden - in most default file manager views - (you probably know that but I thought I'd point it out)
[11:33] <jrib> duelboot: ah ok
[11:33] <Hans-Martin> jmvidalvia: for that you should look up the virtual hosts apache docs
[11:33] <CppIsWeird> How do i add an additional keyboard language? i went to system > preferences > keyboard > layouts > add. and theres nothing there to add another language.
[11:33] <duelboot> jrib, my video camera puts the .mod extension, but the files are really .mpg ... it was aggravating, so i appreciate your help
[11:34] <Pathogen246> ajehuk: lol, I didn't. I'm a ubuntu noob, lol
[11:34] <jrib> duelboot: np
[11:34] <jmvidalvia> Hans-Martin: thanks!
[11:34] <Pathogen246> ajehuk: thanks man
[11:34] <eck> Juancab: if you don't want to reformat, and you have extra hard drive space not used by ubuntu, you can resize the other partitions and move /var to that partition
[11:34] <ajehuk> Pathogen246 - Np - for reference - files with dot (.) before them are hidden
[11:34] <Pathogen246> thanks
[11:34] <CheesyJedi> let's try that again: I need a good network manager that supports ndiswrapper and will be able to search for access points on it's own (without me having to enter the essid). anyone have a suggestion?
[11:35] <snowpunk98> mv drupal-x.x/* drupal-x.x/.htaccess /var/www/html what does that mean exactly
[11:35] <|thunder> shit, does anyone know how to install urbanterror on linux ?
[11:35] <snowpunk98> I know its moving the drupal DIR
[11:35] <kitche> !language | |thunder
[11:35] <ubotu> |thunder: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:35] <kjking02> i changed my boot splash screen to the kubuntu one, and am trying to change it back to the ubuntu one, i tried "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so" and it changed the screen when my computer shuts down, but not when it starts up
[11:35] <snowpunk98> but why are there two locaitons
[11:35] <AngryElf> so, I can't get a terminal started now that I have xinerama up and running......wtf :(
[11:36] <eck> Juancab: e.g. if you had another 20 GB partition, you could resize it to 15 GB and then use the extra space to create a 5 GB partition that you would move /var to
[11:36] <ajehuk> CheesyJedi - I havent tried using a gui network manager but I have had dificulty with some cards (using ndiswrapper) where the essid, and/or AP MAC wasnt specified - just FYI - I'm sure someone will have a good idea about what you want tho...
[11:36] <CheesyJedi> ajehuk: ok, thanks
[11:37] <ajehuk> AngryElf - your running multi-monitor and cant open a terminal?
[11:37] <AngryElf> yup
[11:37] <AngryElf> shows up in the panel as "starting termina" for 10 seconds? then disappears
[11:37] <CheesyJedi> ajehuk: I have a wireless connection fine, but it only works if I already know the essid name. I need a manager that can scan and tell me the available networks because I move around to different networks a lot
[11:37] <ajehuk> AngryElf - I doubt that that is a xinerama issue... - do other applications open?
[11:38] <Juancab> eck: Then I could move /var to the /home partition... but wouldn't that screw up the system?
[11:38] <AngryElf> xchat, firefox, synaptix
[11:38] <AngryElf> and now xterm
[11:38] <AngryElf> but not gnome-terminal
[11:38] <ajehuk> CheesyJedi - you can use iwconfig to scan - and then mod your config - but Im not to great with GUI applications
[11:38] <ajehuk> AngryElf - It may be opening but not within your visable desktop :) -
[11:38] <eck> Juancab: no, you don't want to do that. this would be if you had another partition e.g. with windows on it that you could resize
[11:38] <eck> Juancab: well, i guess you could resize /home
[11:39] <CheesyJedi> ya, but the only way I could get ndiswrapper set up was that iwconfig wouldn't do anything ubless I had already set the essid in the network manager
[11:39] <CppIsWeird> How do i add an additional keyboard language? i went to system > preferences > keyboard > layouts > add. and theres nothing there to add another language.
[11:39] <AngryElf> ajehuk, ps aux|grep gnome-terminal -- nothing
[11:39] <ajehuk> AngryElf - can you try opening a terminal using xterm to launch it - and then see what output there is in xterm?
[11:40] <eck> Juancab: and you don't have to move /var, it can be anything under / (e.g. /usr), whatever you move will give you the space you need
[11:40] <Juancab> eck: do you mean I can make the / partition bigger?
[11:40] <ajehuk> AngryElf - hmm that is strange - for reference I've got a few monitors and Im using xinerama - I'm just going to install gnome-terminal to confirm its not a xinerama issues
[11:40] <harbingdeth> I'm having issues running SWG in wine the graphics are realy choppy but everything looks good is there a way to smooth them out?
[11:40] <eck> Juancab: right now you have /usr, /var, etc. mounted under /. What i am saying is that you could createa a new partition, and move /var or /usr to be mounted on _that_ partition rather than the one it is currently on
[11:41] <pirothezero> whats the gnome partition manager command? I want to delete my windows partition and put that space on my home partition
[11:41] <Generation> how do I configure wine
[11:41] <AngryElf> what do I need to set DEVICE= to to send something to display 0 or display 1?
[11:41] <eck> Juancab: then you would reclaim all the space on / that was used by the directory you moved
[11:42] <duelboot> jrib, I'm out of here, but wanted to say thanks again
[11:42] <pgraves> Can someone please assist me with setting up samba usernames/passwords?
[11:42] <ajehuk> AngryElf - No problems with gnome terminal on xinerama (my environment will likley be very different from yours, but - just so that you know...) I cant think of much else it could be, unless there is something 3d related going on (with a terminal?? :)).  sorry
[11:43] <msikma> Hello everybody. I'm running 6.10 on Parallels, a virtualization program. I can't seem to get any other resolutions going besides 640, 800 and 1024. Is there any way I can configure it to use 1680x1050, my monitor's native res?
[11:44] <ghost> hi l
[11:44] <eck> msikma: have you edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[11:45] <ghost> maybe smbdy know why mozilla firefox do not starting???
[11:45] <ffm> how can I make sure there is no keylogger on my comp?
[11:45] <Juancab> eck: but if I create a new partition and assign it those folders, will it just relocate them properly or can I lose them?
[11:45] <msikma> eck: nope
[11:45] <msikma> But let's see
[11:45] <neozen> ffm: simple way: check names of all running processes
[11:45] <jrib> ffm: practice safe computing
[11:45] <eck> Juancab: you would have to move everything and set it up manually, but it is not very difficult to do so
[11:46] <ghost> when i start mozilla there is no answer to me and nothing else
[11:46] <ghost> just no loading
[11:46] <ffm> jrib: Some one else may have put it on there.
[11:46] <Anderbubble> my syslog indicates that my AGP card is in 1x mode. Why is this? (I have a 4x card and slot)
[11:46] <neozen> ffm: even more simple: don't be a moron... don't use untrusted computers to do trusted actions
[11:46] <ffm> neozen: How?
[11:46] <neozen> ffm: in a terminal ps -aux
[11:46] <ghost> i tried to install and uninstall but nothing...
[11:46] <msikma> eck: I've just edited xorg.conf. How would I go about restarting the X server?
[11:46] <eck> Juancab: basically waht you do is: 1) create the new partition, 2) copy over the old directory, 3) edit /etc/fstab to use the new partition, 4) delete the old directory, and then 5) remount everything
[11:46] <neozen> ffm: that lists all currently running processes
[11:47] <variant> anyone know how to allow gnome bittorrent to download more than one torrent at a time?
[11:47] <ffm> neozen: thz
[11:47] <eck> msikma: ctrl alt backspace
[11:47] <ffm> x
[11:47] <neozen> ffm: the honest truth is... its a long difficult process...
[11:47] <msikma> eck: thanks for your help, let's see if I did the editing right...
[11:47] <neozen> ffm: if someone installed a patched version of a program.... you wouldn't know
[11:47] <ffm> ooo.
[11:47] <ffm> so, no linuxav can detect them?
[11:47] <xyz-abc> neozen, ajehuk, it seems like XChat cut off some of your precious info... can you repeat some of it?
[11:47] <eck> ffm: you could try rkhunter, but it is not perfect
[11:48] <eck> ffm: the problem is that unless you have already done a scan of your hard drive, there is no well known signature for the files
[11:48] <variant> does the gnome bittorrent program that ships as default in ubuntu allow you to download more than one torrent at a time?

[11:49] <neozen> lol
[11:49] <ffm> neozen: linux antivirus.
[11:49] <ffm> also,
[11:49] <ajehuk> gils - do you mean remotley or locally? ssh or simply at the command line?
[11:49] <CheesyJedi> I just installed the network manager...how do I run it?
[11:50] <neozen> ffm: linux needs no such antivirus
[11:50] <ffm> it says ubuntu not supported.
[11:50] <eck> pirothezero: only if the unallocated space is to the "right" of /home
[11:50] <msikma> eck: I added "1680x1050" to all resolutions in xorg.conf, but it didn't seem to work.
[11:50] <variant> ffm: if you think you have been compromised the only really sure way to feel safe again is to reinstall from scratch
[11:50] <neozen> ffm: people don't write viruses for linux
[11:50] <Anderbubble> pirothezero: try gparted. you can expand a partition, but only into free space directly after the partition
[11:50] <variant> neozen: why did you laugh?
[11:50] <ffm> neozen: it says ubuntu not supported
[11:50] <pirothezero> dammit
[11:50] <ragu> msikma: I have the same problem
[11:50] <ajehuk> neozen - ahem they do, they are just very rare and hard to spread...
[11:50] <eck> neozen: there are a lot of script kiddies out there...
[11:50] <ffm> neozen: Well, there are targeted attacks...
[11:50] <Anderbubble> pirothezero: you cannot change the beginning of a partition, and a partition has to be all in one place
[11:50] <neozen> ajehuk: true
[11:50] <variant> ffm: there are a couple of anti virus programs for gnu/linux..
[11:50] <pirothezero> ya figured as much
[11:51] <ajehuk> ffm - whats the problem?
[11:51] <pirothezero> thanks I guess ill just reinstall
[11:51] <eck> msikma: did you add it to the right depth?
[11:51] <ffm> ajehuk: Nothing, just being parinod.
[11:51] <eck> msikma: you probably want to add it to the one for 24
[11:51] <gils> ajehuk: ok well. I am trying to VNC into my computer at home and for some reason someone at my house has logged me out so i am in the GDM welcome screen. I can still ofcourse ssh to my computer and want to restart gnome via ssh connection!!!
[11:51] <variant> neozen: you don't really seem to know what your talking about, no offence but most of what you said so far was not correct
[11:51] <jf_> i have graphics problems :(
[11:51] <ffm> uhhh, and Konsole is broken.
[11:51] <neozen> a little paranoia is a healthy thing
[11:51] <ajehuk> ffm - fair enough
[11:51] <ompaul> pirothezero, consider lvm if you think this resizing is to be an issue
[11:51] <ffm> Konsole will not work
[11:51] <neozen> too much ..... can do bad things to you
[11:51] <ajehuk> paranoia isnt paranoia if its justified...
[11:51] <ragu> eck: I have the same issue as msikma. I have nVidia GLX 7200 card and have enabled nVidia restricted drivers
[11:52] <xyz-abc> ajekhuk, can you re-post some of the info you already post to me (it got cut off my XChat)
[11:52] <pirothezero> thanks ompaul but i just thought of making those 14 gigs that was windows a download parition for newsbin
[11:52] <pirothezero> no big deal
[11:52] <eck> ragu, msikma: if you look at the xorg log file it will tell you why it couldn't use a higher resolution if you have set it up to do so
[11:52] <msikma> eck: I see. I'll try finding that file
[11:53] <eck> msikma: system > administration > system logs
[11:53] <ffm> help,
[11:53] <ffm> konsole looks like http://img358.imageshack.us/img358/3025/screenshotkq6.png
[11:53] <xyz-abc> ajehuk!
[11:53] <ompaul> pirothezero, you could do this mkdir /home/$user/somesubdirectory and mount the partition like that
[11:53] <eck> or /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:53] <jf_> Does anyone have an idea what the reason for me only being able to use the graphics mode which is in the e.g. SuSE installation menu?
[11:53] <ajehuk> gils - you could, I assume just log in at the log in screen? the other option (although  I am not 100% sure) is simply to start another session with the vnc server whilst logged in as the user you want to use, I guess that may work, never tried it myself tho
[11:54] <ompaul> pirothezero, I will leave the smarts to you :)
[11:54] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - Yes
[11:54] <xyz-abc> would you kindly repost some of that goodness?
[11:54] <ariston> hi, i'm running fiesty has a xen server. i'm trying to setup debian sarge as a guest, but debian isn't too happy because the lack of devpts in the Ubuntu xen kernel. Does anyone know what I'd need to enable in the xen kernel in order to be able to mount /dev/pts within /dev?
[11:54] <pirothezero> :)
[11:54] <ragu> msikma: Let me know, if you've figured out the problem
[11:54] <CheesyJedi> how do I start the network manager after having installed it
[11:54] <ffm> !fiesty
[11:54] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007.

[11:54] <eck> jf_: rephrase your question, i didn't understand it
[11:54] <cables> !networkmanager > CheesyJedi
[11:55] <ragu> eck: I couldnt find any such issues in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:55] <cables> CheesyJedi: read the instructions in the pm from ubotu
[11:55] <ajehuk> gils - just to clarify you can start as many vnc sessions as you wish, depending on your vnc server config they will either be related to scree0 or they will open additional sessions, (:0,:1,:2,:3 etc.)
[11:55] <cables> CheesyJedi: follow the guide in its entirety, it tells you what to do
[11:55] <jf_> eck: I get a graphics display error.

[11:57] <cables> CheesyJedi: like i said, follow the guide, it tells you what to do. To start it manually, start nm-applet
[11:57] <ragu> eck: Let me check that
[11:57] <jf_> no, there isn't an erro rmessage
[11:57] <jf_> not even in the log
[11:57] <ajehuk> xyz-abc - sorry that wasnt aimed at you... :)

[11:59] <ragu> eck: Any reason, why my laptop doesnt recognise the resolution?
[11:59] <ajehuk> gils - Ah right gotcha - sorry, let me have alook at that - can I get back to you in a moment?

[12:00] <gils> no problem
[12:00] <pgraves> Kendrick have you tried manually specifying the Gateway (My ubuntu box didn't automatically assign the gateway like my Windows boxes did, I had to specify it in the networking settings)
[12:00] <foug> Kendrick_: what do you mean?
[12:00] <ffm> help!!! http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/7600/screenshot2ou1.png

[12:00] <eck> ragu: i have never had an nvidia card, but i bet if you search for that error message in the forums you'll find something
[12:01] <ajehuk> Kendrick_ - can I suggest you try to ping your router - if that works try get the IP address of a website (google s good) and try to ping it from the linux box?  it may simply be a dns issue
[12:01] <sacater> ffm: may be display settings, or graphic driverzs
