[00:00] <ShadowBelmolve> Fryguy--, <ShadowBelmolve> anyone can help? my ubuntu is mute >.<, i tryed alsa, pulseaudio and jackd, but anyone function, jackd says alsa is in use =/
[00:00] <goldbond> can anyone see what is wrong with my fstab? http://dpaste.com/61239 the boot sequence presents an error that says the / partition does not exist
[00:00] <Miguel> hi
[00:00] <ikonia> jamus: thats not a straightforward task
[00:00] <Chaotic_Descent> I'm sure there's documentation somewhere for ... whatever. I'm just not sure I could have ever found it.
[00:00] <WebcamWonder> Is there documentation on wireless for ubuntu?
[00:00] <japheth> Lns: possibly you will see a file created called /var/run/reboot-required if a reboot is required after updating
[00:00] <macrobad> eitreach: Run a debugger, and try to understand the reason. You may also report a bug to the gedit package in ubuntu.
[00:00] <Chaotic_Descent> and I don't even know if just copying the one user's files into the other folder will be sufficient! :D
[00:01] <Carbonflux> if I have one machine that is running Ubuntu and I want to install it on another machine from a .iso image on the first machine over network, is that possible using network boot?
[00:01] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, we've all run into this sometime -- but you have to understand cp does things in a way that is confusing initially -- and that's not usually the way you want it to do things
[00:01] <Lns> japheth, thanks!! That's what i'm looking for :)
[00:01] <Storrgie> STORAGE DEVICE MANAGER
[00:01] <jamus> will it recognize it if i boot 'as is' with no prep?
[00:01] <__yy_> Carbonflux: yes
[00:01] <Fryguy--> Carbonflux: sure, tftp should work. googling ubuntu network boot should give you plenty of results
[00:01] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, you need to watch out for permissions now that you've copied one user's files into another
[00:01] <travis> do someone know any working app like xvidtune for nvidia
[00:01] <Aquina> Has anyone experience with programs like XawTV or TVtime? Can someone suggest me an app for usage with my old analog Pinnacle PC TV Sterio card?
[00:01] <Chaotic_Descent> oh, I find computers in general do that sort of thing. *half smirk, half frown*
[00:01] <Carbonflux> thanks
[00:02] <LLMP> is amarok possible for ubuntu or it will be buggy
[00:02] <macrobad> japheth: Wow! It was cool!
[00:02] <Flannel> LLMP: Why wouldn't it be possible?
[00:02] <Fryguy--> LLMP: amarok is in the ubuntu repositories
[00:02] <Chaotic_Descent> ah, rsync didn't handle permissions then...
[00:02] <Chaotic_Descent> gotta still use chown
[00:02] <LLMP> becasue it is KDE platform
[00:02] <Fryguy--> LLMP: all of KDE is available in ubuntu's repositories
[00:02] <japheth> Lns: no guarantees this file will be present on your system, but it's a good place to start checking.  I guess if you KNOW you're system will need to restart after an update, check to see if this file is there, and then you can even use an automated script to update your machines every evening and reboot if required.
[00:03] <WebcamWonder> LLMP: It is pretty stable
[00:03] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: that's why i said a while ago to use cp -a, it maintains permissions
[00:03] <zanberdo> A co-worker of mine inadvertently overwrote the /etc/sudoers file with one that is owned by a user other than root.  Now all sudo commands reply that the file must be owned by root.  How can I change ownership if I can't sudo chmod the file?
[00:03] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, it does, but it does not reset them in a way you want them done now -- it does not mind-read
[00:03] <giacomo_casanova> not sure how best to describe my problem but: the display is not properly being utilized, in that a smaller resolution than would use the whole screen is presented in the top left of the screen, below which the graphic interface is repeated.
[00:03] <LLMP> So you could use KDE in ubuntu
[00:03] <Fryguy--> zanberdo: boot from livecd or use rescue mode when booting
[00:03] <Fryguy--> LLMP: sure
[00:03] <LLMP> thanx
[00:03] <__yy> zanberdo: you need to boot into recovery mode.
[00:03] <ShadowBelmolve>  anyone can help? my ubuntu is mute >.<, i tryed alsa, pulseaudio and jackd, but anyone function, jackd says alsa is in use =/
[00:03] <Flannel> zanberdo: Reboot into the recovery console.  And teach him to be more careful
[00:03] <macrobad> japheth: google seems to verify your suggestion
[00:03] <Lns> japheth, yeah - i'm seeing some stuff on google re: that file, looks like it *should* be present when it's required
[00:04] <__yy> zanberdo: I did the same thing a couple days ago, unless you've set a root password there's no way to fix without rebooting
[00:04] <RAdams> scp -r root@example.com:/home/user/www doesn't work to capture the www directory, why?
[00:04] <Fryguy--> !work | RAdams
[00:04] <unop> Fryguy--, his problem was cp copying stuff _into_ the destination directory
[00:04] <RAdams> cram it robot
[00:04] <japheth> Lns: macrobad: well, if Google agrees with me, we must be making progress!  ;)
[00:05] <Lns> macrobad, and japheth - something that simple (creating a file) makes it SO easy to create scripts to...email/sms/etc
[00:05] <Lns> japheth, heh..totally
[00:05] <Fryguy--> unop: k, and cp -a is still helpful in that situation for maintaining permissions
[00:05] <nickrud> RAdams, probably because you didn't give a destination dir?
[00:05] <marko-_-> hello... my computer freezes all the time and i must reboot it... it just doesn't respons... it does that often when i'm using firefox... and now i had to reboot it 3 times because i played a file (first in totem then vlc) and it crashed... i don't even know what to do. Any suggestions ?
[00:05] <zanberdo> I think this exercise should teach him to be more careful! :)  Thanks
[00:05] <q_a_z_steve> travis: so now I have to sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop and start from Ctrl+Alt+F2 or something right?
[00:05] <yosho> hey, can anyone give me some help on kiba-dock? Their channel is silent.
[00:05] <Fryguy--> !anyone | yosho
[00:05] <RAdams> nickrud: oh... it won't default anywhere? didn't know that
[00:05] <marko-_-> i mean it didn't crashed it freezed
[00:05] <macrobad> japheth: :)
[00:05] <q_a_z_steve> !kiba
[00:05] <Chaotic_Descent> Fryguy--: except that cp doesn't work for this. ok. I think I changed file ownership.
[00:05] <marko-_-> hello... my computer freezes all the time and i must reboot it... it just doesn't respons... it does that often when i'm using firefox... and now i had to reboot it 3 times because i played a file (first in totem then vlc) and the computer froze... i don't even know what to do. Any suggestions ?
[00:06] <yosho> haha, ok
[00:06] <Mrevox11> Ok. One last question then I shall leave you guys alone.
[00:06] <q_a_z_steve> !kiba-doc
[00:06] <Lns> marko-_-, do you think it could be a hardware (like memory) failure? have you checked it?
[00:06] <q_a_z_steve> !kiba-dock
[00:06] <Fryguy--> RAdams: the manpage for scp details a list of optional and required parameters.  give it a read to learn more about the usage details of scp
[00:06] <marko-_-> Lns, do you know how to check such thing ?
[00:06] <Chaotic_Descent> later. I'm a little (little??) calmer now. (a lot, considering how much I freakin lost it)
[00:06] <marko-_-> with the ubuntu live cd maybe ?
[00:06] <Mrevox11> after I rebuilt my xorg.conf My wireless usb mouse stopped working.
[00:06] <unop> Fryguy--, sure, as does rsync -a - which is what he did
[00:06] <Lns> marko-_-, memtest via grub
[00:06] <Chaotic_Descent> thanks for your patience, everyone.
[00:06] <Mrevox11> What must I do to get it to work
[00:06] <marko-_-> Lns, i don't know how to do that... could you be more specific
[00:06] <yosho> when I start kiba-dock, I get a 128x128 white box on my desktop. no dock. The settings manager crashes when I click anything in it.
[00:07] <Lns> marko-_-, when your system boots, hit ESC and select "Memtest86" from the boot (grub) menu
[00:07] <goldbond> glitsj16: i hope i'm not bothering you. did you have a chance to take a look at my fstab?
[00:07] <Fryguy--> yosho: run it in a terminal and see if it gives you an error message
[00:07] <marko-_-> Lns, thank you! i will try that, be back later then
[00:07] <yosho> Fryguy--: nope, no error. it starts, but doesn't show anything other than that non-selectable 128x128 white box
[00:07] <Fryguy--> i really should go compile my kernel :/ i've been meaning to do it for 2 days now and I keep procrastinating
[00:08] <Fryguy--> :/
[00:08] <yosho> Fryguy--: and now it doesn't even show that box...
[00:08] <akuma5> i cant find my ntfs partition can someone help?
[00:08] <Fryguy--> i end up just sitting in here helping other people instead :/
[00:08] <glitsj16> goldbond: sorry, someone at the door, can I pm you ? not sure if i get the whole context on your question after the interruption
[00:08] <Fryguy--> akuma5: fdisk -l will show you a list of partitions on identifiable drives
[00:08]  * nickrud was just thinking that Fryguy-- seems to be living here recently
[00:08] <Kovert> Fryguy--: Use your 8 ball
[00:08] <goldbond> glitsj16: please do
[00:08] <akuma5> ok ill check
[00:08] <Fryguy--> Kovert: ?
[00:09] <macrobad> Fryguy--: People'll remember you! :)
[00:09] <Mrevox11> how would I get a Microsoft Wireless Mouse to work in Hardy
[00:09] <yosho> I ran it -v and got: Glib Object Warning: cannot register existing type GFileMonitor
[00:09] <MasterShrek> akuma5, sudo fdisk -l
[00:09] <waltons_pacman> looking for direction -> help with errors in Xorg.0.log file.
[00:09] <waltons_pacman> drive not loaded correctly.
[00:09] <Angelicaa> Anyone who knows why I cannot install ubuntu 8.04 ? It comes up with an "cd is acting confusing" error ?
[00:09] <Reformer81> Mrevox11: What mouse?  My wireless desktop worked just fine (better than in Windows where I had to install the drivers first) :P
[00:09] <Kovert> Fryguy--: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_8-ball
[00:09] <giacomo_casanova> anyone know any commands or starting points for re-setting the display? correct resolutions are not recognized and screen is "repeated"
[00:09] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: I know i already helped you, and said i can't offer anything else, but when you ask a question like that, include a link to the pastebin as well
[00:10] <Mrevox11> Its a Microsoft Wireless Optical
[00:10] <Fryguy--> Kovert: i'm confused
[00:10] <Reformer81> giacomo_casanova: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace will restart the X server and reload your config files.
[00:10] <teisei> Ubuntu FTW
[00:10] <thiefness> How could I find out exactly what wireless card I am using without opening my tower? I looked in 'hardware information' and all it said was vendor etc and ralink was the vender
[00:10] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: thanks for the etiquette tip.
[00:10] <Fryguy--> nickrud: compile my kernel for me lol
[00:10] <Mrevox11> It was working great then i had to rebuild my Xorg.conf  and now im stuck to using the touch pad on my laptop
[00:10] <Kovert> Fryguy--: thats why you need your 8 ball
[00:10] <__yy> thiefness: try lspci or lshw
[00:10] <erUSUL> thiefness: lshw -C Network
[00:10] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: not really an etiquette tip, just that anybody who's going to want to help you in that situation is going to be like "pastebin your xorg log".  just saves everybody a step
[00:10]  * nickrud hands apt-get to Fryguy-- (oh, that'
[00:10] <yosho> Angelicaa: what was that error?
[00:11] <Reformer81> Mrevox11: Then you changed something in your xorg.conf that broke it.  Retrace the changes you made and revert back to the proper settings.
[00:11] <Fryguy--> nickrud: lol you should know better :)
[00:11] <nickrud> s right, uses one of those off brand *nix's)
[00:11] <Mrevox11> Well its a new xorg.

[00:11] <Reformer81> Mrevox11: You didn't back it up first?
[00:11] <LLMP> how could i play dvd on ubuntu?
[00:11] <Angelicaa> yosho: It happens when I am booting ubuntu kernel.. Does that help you ?
[00:11] <Mrevox11> I did .
[00:11] <Fryguy--> !dvd | LLMP
[00:11] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: true, good forsight. i do appreciate the hlp.
[00:11] <Reformer81> Mrevox11: Then restore the backup :)  Or just compare the two.
[00:11] <LLMP> !dvd
[00:12] <thiefness> Would the usb wireless card be listed under Host Bridge?
[00:12] <dholbert> LLMP: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/07/01/enable-commercial-dvd-playback-on-ubuntu-804/
[00:12] <yosho> Angelicaa: does it happen when booting the cd, booting the live session, or installing?
[00:12] <Ahadiel> thiefness, If it's USB then you wouldn't need to open your tower up -_-
[00:12] <thiefness> Otherwise I don't see it listed in lspci, and lshw doesn't give enough information
[00:12] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: being ultra descriptive and providing as much identifying information as possible is helpful to people.  I would also suggest googling some of those errors, see if you can find someone else who has run into a similar issue
[00:12] <Angelicaa> booting the live session
[00:12] <Reformer81> Mrevox11: You could also try running this command: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (I think that's right, anyway)
[00:13] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: i have been. for the last two days. my complete: omg im so confused this is what is wrong can be found here. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5340127#post5340127
[00:13] <yosho> check the disk for errors, Angelicaa
 E.g.: fdisk /dev/hda  (for the first IDE disk)
[00:13] <akuma5>   or: fdisk /dev/sdc  (for the third SCSI disk)
[00:13] <akuma5>   or: fdisk /dev/eda  (for the first PS/2 ESDI drive)
[00:13] <akuma5>   or: fdisk /dev/rd/c0d0  or: fdisk /dev/ida/c0d0  (for RAID devices)
[00:13] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: ah, ok
[00:13] <SeaPhor> thiefness, have you tried lshw -C network ?
[00:13] <dholbert> Question: If I set up ubuntu to automatically unlock my SSH key at login time (storing my passphrase), is that stored in encrpyted form? (presumably with my login password?)
[00:13] <Fryguy--> akuma5: fdisk -l
[00:13] <akuma5> witch one is am i suppose to us?
[00:14] <dholbert> and if someone gained root access to my machine, would they be able to crack that and get at my passphrase?
[00:14] <thiefness> SeaPhor: yes, but it doesn't give a model name or anything like that, i'd like to be able to find if anyone else has had success getting it to run smoothly
[00:14] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: feel free to check it out and think on it overnight, post back. ^_^
[00:14] <Tepps> The GUI doesn't display when I try to boot into Ubuntu (all I get is the CLI (and I have tried "startx", which has given me errors: "Fatal server error: no screens found")).
 oh sorry
[00:14] <__yy> Tepps: try sudo /etc/X11/gdm start
[00:15] <Tepps> Ok, thanks
[00:15] <Angelicaa> yosho: can I do that from my terminal in mandriva ? I cannot open "Configure my computer" atm. on it
[00:15] <Mrevox11> ok. I tried that command and It just asked a bunch of questions about my keyboard.

[00:15] <FloodBot2> akuma5: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:15] <thiefness> Ahadiel: it is usb based, but it is within the tower as it comes already installed
[00:15] <__yy> akuma5: please stop doing that
[00:15] <Mrevox11> so what would I need to do next?
[00:15] <akuma5> oh oh sorry
[00:15] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: do you have an i810 driver on your machine (i'm flat out guessing here)
[00:15] <akuma5> wont do it again
[00:15] <yosho> eh? no, on the livecd. it's an option right when you boot
[00:16] <waltons_pacman> tepps: possible that the monitor/video driver isnt installed correctly, im still stuck in my video driver issue, but look at the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. look for Section "Screens" or something along those lines.
[00:16] <tim167> how do i export my calendar from Evolution ?
[00:16] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: also are you using 8.04?
[00:16] <Angelicaa> yosho:  Will try now .. I will come back later ;)
[00:16] <SeaPhor> what model again thiefness ?
[00:16] <Tepps> Alright
[00:16] <steven__> hello
[00:16] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: you would be correct. at least i can boot x-session with driver "i810" in the xorg.conf
[00:16] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: yes
[00:16] <Smegzor> I changed the mysql root user pass and now a lot of install scripts fail with this 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'.  How do I fix that?
[00:16] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: can you not use the intel driver ?
[00:16] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: Ubuntu hardy 8.04
[00:17] <ikonia> Smegzor: how did you change the password ?
[00:17] <tim167> can i export my calendar from Evolution ?~i read somewhere there should be a 'save to disk' option but i cant find it
[00:17] <__yy> Smegzor: use the -p option for mysql
[00:17] <Smegzor> directly in mysql
[00:17] <ikonia> Smegzor: explain how
[00:17] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: this seems like a known bug from this error https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/91966
[00:17] <waltons_pacman> ikonia: i can, but apparently, from fryguy, there are errors in my driver load i think that may be my wine problem.
[00:17] <steven__> im new to Linux (2days now) and im having trouble configuring ventrilo
[00:17] <Smegzor> i followed a howto in the mysql manual
[00:17] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: that sounds plauseable, what sort of errors are you getting
[00:17] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: took a lot of inferencing to come up with that, and you have to wade through a lot of other stuff, but your error is in there, in an unrelated portion
[00:18] <ikonia> Smegzor: what, you did a grant, or an update of the table, or mysqladmin
[00:18] <aestrivex> i have a new Creative Live! Cam Video IM Pro VF0410 which is supported by the UVC driver and which works on luvcview but the device doesn't appear to be supported by anything else and isn't showing up under /dev anywhere.  how do i get linux to acknowledge that it's there?  running hardy 8.04.
[00:18] <steven__> anyone here run ventrilo
[00:18] <Smegzor> i'll find the page I followed.  1 moment..
[00:18] <Aquina> Has anyone experience with programs like XawTV or TVtime? Can someone suggest me an app for usage with my old analog Pinnacle PC TV Sterio card? XawTV cause a blank screen...
[00:19] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: there seems to be a workaround like 85% of the way through that launchpad btw. give it a try
[00:19] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: Edit /etc/defaults/acpi-support, to comment out "POST_VIDEO=true".
[00:20] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: since im a noob, what is the syntax for whatever language its written in to comment? // or # or /* */ or whathave  you
[00:20] <goldbond> does anyone know what "Check root=bootarg cat /proc/cmdline or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls /dev" means?

[00:20] <Smegzor> ikonia  This looks like the method I used.
[00:20] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: i jumped through hella hoops to find this for you lol
[00:21] <Smegzor> meh.  didn't paste :/
[00:21] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: you are the MAN!
[00:21] <Kernel> hello all. now before i get told all about sudo...which ive used many many times and understand......would i break things by setting a root password?. i know in theory it should work..but are there things im overlooking which would be affected?
[00:21] <Smegzor> I had to stop the server and update the root user setting a password
[00:21] <Fryguy--> Kernel: no
[00:21] <ikonia> Smegzor: what is the method, please give me the exact command you used
[00:22] <MasterShrek> aestrivex, never used one, but type dmesg in a terminal after plugging it in may give you a lead
[00:22] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: how did you find it so fast? ive been doing everything from google to form post to irc chat for two days now.
[00:22] <Smegzor> I can't paste into this window.  I'll have to pastebin..
[00:22] <Kernel> Fryguy--: ok. i was pretty damn sure...but i just needed some confirmation. thanks :)
[00:22] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: quick summary of how you got it going please.
[00:22] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: googled first (EE) message in xorg.log, without the memory addresses
[00:22] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: PS still dont know if it fixed it but that was a very fast output for so little search criteria
[00:22] <macrobad> Kernel: Just in case, you've overlooked, try 'sudo -i'
[00:22] <corollax> Hello. Would anyone be willing to help me with port forwarding issues?
[00:22] <waltons_pacman> ikonia: ill keep you informed no forward progress as of yet
[00:22] <steven__> hi i just loaded ubuntu yesterday and i am trying to figure out how to run ventrilo,i run it thrugh Wine and it loads i just cant hear anyone talk, and i cant talk myself
[00:22] <Fryguy--> !ask | corollax
[00:22] <Kernel> macrobad: ok will check that now.
[00:22] <rdz> is there a way to change brightness of the laptop per commandline? in earlier ubuntu version i was able to 'echo 10 > /proc/acpi/LCD/brightness' or similar. how is it done in dapper?
[00:23] <tim167> is my calendar stuck in Evolution ? why cant i export it ? if its not possible i could just as well use a proprietary software!
[00:23] <Flannel> rdz: Dapper?
[00:23] <macrobad> Kernel: You'll like it! ;)
[00:23] <waltons_pacman> ikonia: correction, no definitive forward progress.
[00:23] <Kernel> ah macrobad i normally do sudo su -
[00:23] <Kernel> ;-)
[00:23] <rdz> Flannel, yeah, on that dapper, i could do it as i said.. but how do i do it now?
[00:24] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: still, what is the comment out syntax? # i assume/
[00:24] <macrobad> tim167: http://www.google.com/search?btnG=Google+Search&q=export+evolution+calendar
[00:24] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: yah, that's what i said before.
[00:25] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: it's the standard unix config file comment style
[00:25] <Mrevox11> anyone help? I would really like to stop using the touch pad. And i would like my mouse to start working again.
[00:25] <WebcamWonder> Does ubuntu have a problem with connecting with static IP configuration to a wireless WPA2 encrypted network>
[00:25] <rdz> tim167, i couldn't find it either, but when i reinstalled ubuntu i just copied everything from ~/.evolution to the new ~/.evolution and it worked
[00:25] <shade1> Fryguy--, macrobad, I'm back. I tried the tcpdump/ping combo. Unfortunately, while I did manage to intercept packets from my other computers, I don't think I captured any ping packets. Of course, I don't know what those look like anyway. Maybe this is because ping didn't know where to send them? because of the "destination host unreachable"?
[00:25] <Smegzor> ikonia  http://pastebin.org/49494
[00:25] <rdz> but that was to transfer mails, not calendar... but i suppose it is the same for calendar
[00:25] <tim167> rdz: yes but i want to export as ical to import it in google calendar
[00:26] <rdz> tim167, ah i see
[00:26] <tim167> rdz or even csv, some easily parseable format
[00:26] <ikonia> Smegzor: thats why you've borked it
[00:26] <aestrivex> my dmesg is overflowing with this message [ 2523.233540] atl1 0000:02:00.0: hw csum wrong, pkt_flag:1600, err_flag:80 which seems to be repeating every tenth of a second
[00:27] <Smegzor> ikonia  Yeah I knew that :)   How should I fix it?
[00:27] <novak> !gconf
[00:27] <ikonia> Smegzor: well because of how you've updated it, your options are limited
[00:27] <novak> how can I put garbage icon on my desktop ?
[00:27] <aestrivex> i'm a bit concerned by that but i have no idea what that means or if it has anything to do with my webcam because it keeps going when its unplugged
[00:27] <macrobad> shade1: So, you are saying that other computers' packets reach your interface, but your own do not leave it?
[00:27] <victor__> does anyone know if the Kworld PlusTV HD PCI 120 tv tuner works on ubuntu 7.10?
[00:27] <ikonia> Smegzor: you may want to stop mysql, restart it without the --skip-grant-tables, and hope that dpkg can prompt you for a root password when it needs to
[00:27] <Smegzor> limit options are better than none.  How should I have done it?
[00:27] <Smegzor> ok
[00:28] <mkargar> MKARGAR
[00:28] <ikonia> Smegzor: mysqladmin and created a root@localhost user
[00:28] <Smegzor> good to know :)
[00:28] <shade1> macrobad: not that I can tell, but I'm not sure, since I don't know much about ping's packets
[00:28] <ikonia> Smegzor: or mysql grant all privileges on *.* to 'root'@'localhost' identified by 'password'
[00:28] <Smegzor> hmm..  actually I set/changed the password because I could not log in with mysqladmin
[00:29] <l3d> need help with a printer issue
[00:29] <SitUbuntuSit> novak, run gconf-editor. under apps, go to nautilus, desktop, then check the icons you want on the desktop
[00:29] <ikonia> Smegzor: basiclly the default mysql account doesn't need a password (it doesn't actually have one) so that dpkg can update it when needed, you've changed the password, so locked it out
[00:29] <Smegzor> :D
[00:29] <Dream> yo
[00:29] <l3d>  I thought i installed it fime  when I click to print a test page it seems to try then nothing
[00:29] <afallenhope> does wireshark have be ran as root? because it's not picking up my network cards as normal but it works as root
[00:29] <Barracuda> Hi I am trying to add a new user in ubuntu server 8.04 with this command: sudo adduser matt. However no matt home folder was created. Does any one know why??
[00:29] <l3d> fine*
[00:29] <ikonia> Smegzor: does that make sense ?
[00:29] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: usually yes
[00:29] <Smegzor> yip
[00:29] <afallenhope> thanks Fryguy--
[00:29] <ikonia> Smegzor: super
[00:30] <Smegzor> brb  trying your suggested fix
[00:30] <l3d> lexmark z32 is the printer
[00:30] <Dream> ok, im trying to change my account to root, as its the only account that is used, i try to log the account named "root" and it says system admin cannot log in from the log in screen, any ideas?
[00:30] <ubunubi> Barracuda: i'm 99% the home directory isn't created until the new user logs in
[00:30] <ikonia> Dream: you don't use the root account on ubuntu
[00:30] <gam3r111> how do i get aim for lunux
[00:30] <shade1> macrobad: so, what do I grep for to find the ping packets? there's always the chance that I made a mistake, and didn't actually ping during that period. And maybe "host unreachable" means it gave up before even sending the packets.
[00:30] <ikonia> gam3r111: use pidgin
[00:30] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: use pidgin
[00:31] <IndyGunFreak> gam3r111: we went through this earlier, remembrer.
[00:31] <gam3r111> im using pidgin
[00:31] <l3d> gam3r111 pidgin does aim
[00:31] <gam3r111> i want aim for linux
[00:31] <SitUbuntuSit> gam3r111, its so old, its not worth it. use pidgin.
[00:31] <ikonia> gam3r111: AOL don't make a linux client any more
[00:31] <steven__> Can anyone help me with a ventrilo problem
[00:31] <Dream> i want msn on ubu, but i use my laptop insted
[00:31] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: should be available on aim.com's site, it's very old though
[00:31] <Barracuda> ubunubi:I see let me give it a try thanks
[00:31] <macrobad> shade1: I don't remember it by heart, hold on.
[00:31] <gam3r111> but im not sure how to install it
[00:31] <IndyGunFreak> gam3r is just trolling everyone, he spent 20min earlier saying he wants to use AIM for linux, not pidgin, how do i compile it, etc..
[00:31] <ikonia> gam3r111: it won't run properly on ubuntu
[00:31] <ikonia> gam3r111: use pidgin
[00:31] <tim167> anyone know what happened to the calendar export function in Evolution 2.12.1 ?
[00:31] <Commie_Jebus> gam3r111: you dont need to use AIM for linux... just use gaim or something
[00:32] <ikonia> gam3r111: or mail aol and ask them to make a compatible client
[00:32] <ubunubi> barracuda:: if that doesn't work you can force a specific home directory using adduser --home DIRECTORY
[00:32] <SitUbuntuSit> gam3r111, i think the dependencies won't allow it on ubuntu
[00:32] <shade1> macrobad: One quick, unrelated question: after I saved the tcpdump to a file, I (foolishly) tried to read it with cat. The result was to change my character map, so that half of the letters on my screen were unreadable. do you know of anyway to reset the char map without rebooting, for future ref?
[00:32] <ikonia> shade1: tput -reset
[00:32] <ubunubi> gam3r111: you could probably install AIM 6 with wine if you wanna get your hands dirty
[00:33] <shade1> ikonia: thanks
[00:33] <Fryguy--> shade1: type reset
[00:33] <Dream> reset
[00:33] <Dream> oh, im not shade
[00:33] <aestrivex> this is dmesg's output besides the incessant errors which i have no idea where they're coming from

[00:33] <gam3r111> y can u juss tell me  how to get aim linux
[00:33] <aestrivex> that directory doesnt appear to exist
[00:33] <gam3r111> how do i get aim 6 to work with wine
[00:33] <gam3r111> it wont
[00:33] <steven__> i am trying to run Ventrilo with Wine and i am having sound issues, anyone know any common problem asscoiated with the two?
[00:33] <macrobad> shade1: so, just add icmp to the end of the command, like 'sudo tcpdump -i eth0 icmp'
[00:33] <Fryguy--> !work | gam3r111
[00:33] <ikonia> gam3r111: what's the problem with pidgin ?
[00:34] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: any reason why you want to use that instead of pidgin btw?
[00:34] <ubunubi> pidgin doesn't support video chat or photo sharing, for one
[00:34] <l3d> pidgin is sweet
[00:34] <ikonia> ubunubi: neither with aol for linux
[00:34] <Fryguy--> ubunubi: neither does oscar afaik
[00:34] <shade1> macrobad: does that tell tcpdump to filter for that, or to bother saving those packets?
[00:34] <gam3r111> o because i cant send files to my friends using pidgin and pidgin dosent have the correct sounds
[00:34] <shade1> macrobad: could I use grep on the saved packets instead?
[00:34] <Dream> try EMAILING the photos, and send VIDEO files ^^
[00:35] <ikonia> gam3r111: it does support file transfer
[00:35] <Dream> then be happy ^^
[00:35] <IndyGunFreak> gam3r111: so have your friends send you sounds, and yes, you can sendfile w/ pidgin, i do it all the time
[00:35] <ubunubi> Dream: that's a lame work around. why not just send e-mails instead of pesky instant messages to begin with?
[00:35] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: you can customize the sounds fine, and pidgin works with sending files just fine, you have a problem with your network if it doesn't.  running a compatibility layer to get another app working isn't going to help you at all
[00:35] <gam3r111> but if they are using aim it is always a failure
[00:35] <bobertdos> Why can't you send files via Pidgin, gam3r111? constant failure?
[00:35] <ikonia> gam3r111: it works, we can help you debug that
[00:35] <macrobad> shade1: it would bother about the ping packets only. As for the second question, no, you cannot use grep on tcpdump file, but you may feed it to tcpdump, afaik.
[00:35] <DIL> dil says he suked you all in
[00:36] <Dream> Ubununi, exactly :P or, just get a 2nd computer to use AIM on >_< and play on ubu on a 2nd
[00:36] <gam3r111> ok please help
[00:36] <Barracuda> ubunubi: I ried log in with the new user I created and still no home folder was created fo that user. Any idea what is going on
[00:36] <afallenhope> I think my gksudo is broken. whenever I run apps using it.. it freezes the app
[00:36] <Barracuda> ?
[00:36] <steven__> so noen knows anything about running ventrilo with Wine?
[00:36] <UziMonkey> Is anyone having problems with Hulu on 8.04?  Videos play fine, but they'll randomly freeze up firefox and if you don't pause it quickly, Firefox will stop responding altogether.
[00:36] <afallenhope> steven__, I've heard of people doing it
[00:36] <bobertdos> gam3r111, What happens when you try to do a file transfer.
[00:36] <aestrivex> why exactly does this directory for my webcam not exist
[00:36] <bobertdos> *?
[00:36] <macrobad> shade1: yep. use -r option to specify the file to read packets from
[00:36] <gam3r111> it says the other person ended it
[00:36] <Fryguy--> steven__: looks like plenty of information here: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=Rhf&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=ubuntu+wine+ventrilo&spell=1
[00:36] <ubunubi> Barracuda: did you try the adduser --home DIR   i suggested? then log in
[00:36] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: no white man fix. however, i am now running about aprox 30fps in a city
[00:36] <gam3r111> but on their end it says unknown failure
[00:36] <shade1> macrobad: ok, I'll try that. It'll take a sec, because I have to swap monitor cables ;)
[00:37] <BaD-Laptop> steven__: maybe the guys in #winehq do and check http://apps.winehq.org/ for compatibility.
[00:37] <macrobad> kk
[00:37] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: so you def got something right, even if it wasnt the entire problem.

[00:38] <temoto-mobi> How to startup custom daemon? I would like something better than 'get apache initrc script and modify'.
[00:38] <gam3r111> bobertdos
[00:38] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: what daemon
[00:38] <gam3r111> yes
[00:38] <r00t> i have a probleme with postfix

[00:39] <DIL> indeed
[00:39] <ikonia> r00t: what's up

[00:44] <ikonia> r00t: what mail storage format are you using?
[00:44] <ubunubi> rdz: just sudo echo VALUE /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/asus-laptop/brightness
[00:44] <Fryguy--> runes: so then go ask in #apache
[00:44] <q_a_z_steve> Fryguy--: maybe I don't have repos... I'll turn on full source, but which one is missing?

[00:46] <ikonia> what's procmail doing ?
[00:46] <Fryguy--> rdz: add an exception for the command in /etc/sudoers
[00:46] <macrobad> shade1: did you catch anything at all?
[00:47] <shade1> macrobad: one packet, intended for a different computer
[00:47] <rdz> Fryguy--, ah.. this means, that this user always has root power? not only for this file?
[00:47] <Fungusman> I installed XP, then it erased my grub loader. I loaded a live CD and fixed it. NOW it won't detect xp
[00:47] <temoto-mobi> Suppose my custom startup daemon fails and i don't know about it and there is no one to restart it. I believe there are programs like watchdogs who monitor correct activity of services and restart them if needed. Are there?
[00:47] <CooperRJ> Alguem sabe um repositorio para instalação do xmms?
[00:47] <Fryguy--> rdz: no
[00:47] <ubunubi> rdz: let me look up some details brb
[00:47] <Fungusman> Is there a way to auto scan for os's ?
[00:47] <corollax> !English | CooperRJ
[00:47] <Fungusman> I can;t even get into that new partician now
[00:47] <rdz> ubunubi, cool...
[00:47] <Fryguy--> Fungusman: how do you want to determine if a partition has an OS on it or not?
[00:47] <shade1> macrobad: so, what do you think is wrong? could it be a driver problem?
[00:48] <r00t> ikonia:ok thanks
[00:48] <r00t>
[00:48] <r00t> I will try to reinstall
[00:48] <nickrud> temoto-mobi, yes a wide variety. I've used monit in the past
[00:48] <ikonia> ???
[00:48] <CooperRJ> sorry, my english is bad
[00:48] <Flannel> !br | CooperRJ
[00:48] <ikonia> r00t: how is a re-instal going to fix anything
[00:48] <temoto-mobi> nickrud, thanks.
[00:48] <bazhang> !xmms | CooperRJ
[00:48] <Fungusman> I want XP back in the boot loader
[00:48] <Fungusman> BUT
[00:48] <macrobad> shade1: o_O Wierd. I think you have some problems with your configuration, ip, routing or firewall configuration.
[00:48] <runes> Fryguy--: I did an nslookup what I wanted to know is what I need to populate the hosts file in /etc with if my local nic is set for <IP_ADDRESS> and I have two valid domains.
[00:48] <Fungusman> It wont happen just by editing the loader file will it ?
[00:48] <Fryguy--> Fungusman: it will
[00:49] <Fungusman> I know what drive it is one, but I dont under stand how to fin HD0 or HD1 etc
[00:49] <Fryguy--> runes: no
[00:49] <macrobad> shade1: so, it's not about physical connectivity or other hosts.
[00:49] <gam3r111> how do i log in as root
[00:49] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: use sudo
[00:49] <gam3r111> wat command
[00:49] <l3d> printer issues with the lexmark z32
[00:49] <bobertdos> Cooper, hay que utilizar Multiverse y los repos Limitados
[00:49] <r00t> ikonia:because I can miss a step
[00:49] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: the command is called sudo
[00:49] <gam3r111> ok
[00:49] <shade1> macrobad: at this point, I think it's going to turn out to be something annoyingly simple. I just don't know what.
[00:49] <runes> Fryguy--: ok so even hosts config is part of apache forum/
[00:49] <IMANOOB> how do i get uvcvideo
[00:50] <nickrud> Fungusman, take a look at /boot/grub/device.map , that should tell you what you need
[00:50] <q_a_z_steve> Fryguy--: nickrud thanks, hope that works. Will be back, I'm sure.
[00:50] <gam3r111> fryguy: umm nothing happens
[00:50] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: well what do you want to do
[00:50] <CooperRJ> Ubottu - I already have audacious, but he wanted xmms.
[00:50] <shade1> macrobad: I don't think it can be a firewall issue, we don't really have that much in that department, unless it is a local, outgoing firewall
[00:50] <gam3r111> just log in as root
[00:50] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: why
[00:50] <gam3r111> to install something
[00:50] <IndyGunFreak> CooperRJ: xmms is no longer supported.. tell him to use audacious.
[00:50] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: so use sudo to run the install command
[00:50] <ubunubi> rdz:: take a look at this http://news.softpedia.com/news/Grant-Root-Privileges-to-Regular-Users-41633.shtml
[00:51] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: if you insist on being root, use sudo -i or sudo su -
[00:51] <gam3r111> o thanks
[00:51] <corollax> Could someone help me with port forwarding issues for torrenting?
[00:51] <macrobad> shade1: Just go step by step. Now that we know it is not about physical connectivity, analyse IP issues. Anyway, unless you have a firewall set up on *your* machine, you should have observed outgoing ping attempts.
[00:51] <rdz> ubunubi, thanks a lot
[00:51] <m-c> !root
[00:51] <Fryguy--> !anyone | corollax
[00:51] <ynot> Fungusman, is xp on the first drive
[00:52] <corollax> I need help with port forwarding for torrenting. Please help?
[00:52] <Fryguy--> !ask | corollax
[00:52] <IndyGunFreak> corollax: thats most likely an issue w/ your router, refer to your router documentation.
[00:52] <q_a_z_steve> nickrud: Fryguy-- some sort of progress, I'm looking at a much bigger screen, but nvidia-xconfig still doesn't work, and so I'm sure I won't get external display...
[00:52] <shade1> macrobad: well, I didn't set up a firewall, but ubuntu server edition might have? I don't think so. It had dhcp problems during install, so I don't see how that would be it's own fault.
[00:52] <macrobad> shade1: By the way, try running 'arp -an'. It should give you some mappings between MAC and IP addresses.
[00:52] <IMANOOB> how do i get uvcvideo
[00:53] <Kappaccino> corollax, http://portforward.com/
[00:53] <corollax> Kappaccino: THANK You.
[00:53] <macrobad> shade1: No, Ubuntu Server 8.04 comes without a firewall.
[00:53] <gam3r111> i have ubuntu hardy and it used to be installed with windows using wubi... but i partioned it so i have an ubuntu partition and a windows partition and i un installed ubuntu that was in windows but it still shows up on the windows loader how do i get it off>
[00:53] <ubunubi> rdz :: here's a shorter version http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/33
[00:54] <macrobad> shade1: hmm... can you tell me once more the ip, netmask, and the gateway?
[00:54] <shade1> macrobad: could it be a driver problem? I know the driver module is loaded, and the card was recognized properly, but I don't think that lsmod indicated that the driver was driving anything.
[00:54] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove the entry that you don't want
[00:54] <q_a_z_steve> Fryguy--: nickrud so now what?
[00:54] <Fryguy--> !work | q_a_z_steve
[00:54] <shade1> macrobad: ip: <IP_ADDRESS> netmask: <IP_ADDRESS> gateway: <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:55] <macrobad> shade1: It might be a driver problem. If everything else fails, it is most likely to be related to drivers.
[00:55] <IndyGunFreak> Fryguy--: you can remove wubii entries from menu.lst?
[00:55] <shade1> macrobad: the gateway assigns dhcp starting at <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:55] <Fryguy--> IndyGunFreak: no idea
[00:55] <gam3r111> fryguy: it says access denied
[00:55] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: so use sudo
[00:55] <IndyGunFreak> !sudo | gam3r111
[00:55] <cincinnatus> I'm trying to go from Feisty to Gutsy and I keep getting an error about "failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-security/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2"
[00:55] <gam3r111> tell me the exact command i need to type
[00:55] <jmallin> IndyGunFreak: Did all the steps and it didn't solve the problem.
[00:55] <cincinnatus> anyone know how to fix that?
[00:56] <IndyGunFreak> jmallin: did you reboot?
[00:56] <zonkers> should i update 8.04 to 8.04.1?
[00:56] <shade1> macrobad: so, what do I do to get the right driver? I already spent a ton of time trying to fix it via drivers, but maybe you'll know something I couldn't find.
[00:56] <jmallin> Yes.. I rebooted after I disabled the drivers and again after the final step
[00:56] <macrobad> shade1: Two things. First, can other machines ping the gateway? For example, in our network, even ping traffic is filtered out.
[00:56] <q_a_z_steve> Fryguy--: nvidia-xconfig still complains that it's not running, which is probably something to do with http://qazsteve.pastebin.org/49507
[00:56] <LLMP> I can't get tilp working it says it can't find caculter but i have plug in with the usb cord?
[00:56] <gam3r111> please
[00:56] <jmallin> IndyGunFreak:  Yes.. I rebooted after I disabled the drivers and again after the final step
[00:56] <aestrivex> ok i'm completely lost now with my webcam
[00:56] <aestrivex> i still cant get it to work on any other applications
[00:56] <shade1> macrobad: yep
[00:57] <aestrivex> i have been running around looking for fixes or patches
[00:57] <shade1> macrobad: and the second thing?
[00:57] <IndyGunFreak> jmallin: well, i can help you, but you're gonna have to compile an older version of madwifi, and use a patch I have.. i can rapidshare both of them to you, this s a problem w/ a small percentage of those devices
[00:57] <aestrivex> and all it has brought me is more confusion
[00:57] <macrobad> shade1: Second, can you show 'ip link show | grep eth0'?
[00:57] <ynot> gam3r111, are you in ubuntu
[00:57] <IndyGunFreak> jmallin: type this w/o quotes.. "/join #indygunfreak":
[00:58] <xado> hi everybody
[00:58] <aestrivex> is this just an issue that UVC is poorly supported
[00:58] <Fryguy--> zonkers: you are already updated, it's integrated into normal updates
[00:58] <Fryguy--> zonkers: it's not a dist-upgrade
[00:58] <aestrivex> because it looks like some people have had similar problems but there are also a bunch of people that look like they've been relatively successful with webcam functionality
[00:58] <xado> I need help with my asus M51se
[00:58] <aestrivex> at least for simple applications like camorama
[00:58] <gam3r111> ynot: yes
[00:58] <xado> Gui doesn't work
[00:58] <Fryguy--> ok that's it, i've had enough, i'm leaving later guys
[00:59] <q_a_z_steve> Fryguy--: thanks for your help
[00:59] <zonkers> fryguy. ok, thanks, will there be any kernel upgrades in the 8.04 LTS releases?
[00:59] <aestrivex> but for the life of me i cannot figure out why this webcam is not showing up under /dev
[00:59] <cchance> Anyone know how to setup xp for a dual boot with ubuntu pre-installed
[00:59] <KDB9000> Is anyone here part of the ubuntu laptop testing team?
[00:59] <shade1> macrobad: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25812/
[00:59] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: What model cam is it?
[01:00] <ynot> in terminal type sudo -i then type gedit then from gedit open the boot/grub/menu.lst file
[01:00] <shade1> macrobad: I typed that in, so it might not be 100% accurate
[01:00] <randall> is there a program for ubuntu that will run macros like on windows like shortkeys or keytext just something that will run text for me
[01:00] <bobertdos> cchance: Yes, I just did that. It's perfectly doable but very annoying.
[01:00] <aestrivex> its a Creative Live! Cam VideoIM Pro
[01:00] <aestrivex> VF0410 product number
[01:00] <ftehw> I have a 2nd HDD, how do I get it to be automatically mounted (so I don't have to click on it in places before other apps can access it)?
[01:00] <cchance> bobertdos, i know what you mean. But how did you do it with xp pro setup?
[01:00] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: hold for a bit, let me look...
[01:00] <aestrivex> the UVC page says its fully supported
[01:01] <macrobad> shade1: It need not be. Let me google for LOWER_UP, 'coz it looks suspicious.
[01:01] <bobertdos> cchance: want to switch to PM? It's easier for me.
[01:01] <ynot> gam3r111, did you uninstall the wubi install
[01:01] <cchance> bobertdos ok
[01:01] <Fryguy--> zonkers: i have no idea
[01:01] <IMANOOB> how do i test if my webcam is working?
[01:01] <Fryguy--> !webcam | IMANOOB
[01:01] <IMANOOB> !webcam
[01:02] <IMANOOB> fryguy thanks
[01:02] <vistovistor> +OK YDe6x.rU5mR1
[01:02] <gam3r111> ynot: yes
[01:03] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: It looks like it is supported with V4L, not V4L2. Have you tried using Skype or Ekiga (select V4L driver)?
[01:03] <gam3r111>  i have ubuntu hardy and it used to be installed with windows using wubi... but i partioned it so i have an ubuntu partition and a windows partition and i un installed ubuntu that was in windows but it still shows up on the windows loader how do i get it off>
[01:03] <ynot> gam3r111, did you select not to load grub when you installed the new hardy??
[01:03] <LLMP> does anyone know how i could get tilp working?
[01:03] <aestrivex> V4L
[01:03] <gam3r111> no
[01:03] <aestrivex> ?
[01:03] <aestrivex> ok ill try that in ekiga
[01:03] <xserverx> I have a server with 8 cpu but I have on top status that mysql and many httpd process take 100% of CPU for each one how thats going on ? and is that's run on 1 Cpu or that 100% for 1 Cpu or all Cpus(8 Cpus) ??
[01:03] <aestrivex> ftr it seems to work in luvcview
[01:04] <IMANOOB> fryguys says i need uvcvideo driver
[01:04] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: Aye, some of the apps that use web cams are now supporting only V4L.
[01:04] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: I've had this issue using Cheese.
[01:04] <aestrivex> it doesnt look like its working with V4L either
[01:04] <Fryguy--> xserverx: maybe they are being hammered, or maybe they are stuck doing something, or maybe you are reading something incorrectly, (100% is all cpus IIRC, not sure about gnu top for that, i use a different top)
[01:05] <vistovistor> +OK KSg/P/2prI31.DIlX.NJkkZ09WT5c/NHjdT0.CK3m.ipQwT.GGo8g0kAMYp/jZUNo1p7t8n1txKVm1CoA7n1
[01:05] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: Can you test this on another computer?
[01:05] <aestrivex> that would take me a while to set up
[01:05] <aestrivex> the webcam is brand new
[01:05] <ynot> gam3r111, then how is it stil useing the windows boot loader???
[01:05] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: This would ensure your cam is not damaged.
[01:05] <aestrivex> and it is working with luvcview so i dont believe its a problem with the hardware
[01:05] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: Good point.
[01:06] <macrobad> shade1: well, it seems that LOWER_UP doesn't mean something bad. Now you have proper ip configuration. So, routing and firewalls have to be verified.
[01:06] <aestrivex> what i'm most confused with is that the cam is not recognized under /dev/video0
[01:06] <aestrivex> dmesg reveals this:
[01:06] <aestrivex> [ 2752.455458] input: VF0410 Live! Cam Video IM Pro as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:13.5/usb6/6-2/6-2:1.0/input/input8

[01:06] <shade1> macrobad: have we ruled out drivers?
[01:06] <Carbonflux> does anyone have any experience with geforce 9600 boards in 8.04 ? just wondering about the detection issues, I installed from a older iso, updating now.
[01:07] <Fryguy--> Carbonflux: you need to try envy or manually install drivers fron nvidia's website
[01:07] <Carbonflux> ok
[01:07] <Carbonflux> is envy ok to use?
[01:07] <gam3r111> in grub i can choose ubuntu or windows/ loader and when i klik windows it comes up with 2 options vista or ubuntu and if i click ubuntu it says somethiing about i uninstalled wubi and what not
[01:07] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: IMANOOB has a good point - check if you have the uvcvideo driver.
[01:07] <Fryguy--> !envy | Carbonflux
[01:07] <Carbonflux> it lools easy heh
[01:07] <ubunubi> Carbonflux: make sure to use envyng, as envy is deprecated for 8.05+
[01:07] <jtm> How can one add a program to the applications in a keyring?
[01:07] <macrobad> shade1: Since the ip link show says that the device is up and running, it is not an obvious problem with drivers, at least.
[01:07] <aestrivex> i just installed the uvc driver
[01:08] <gam3r111> i just want to get uubuntu off the windows boot loader
[01:08] <Carbonflux> thank you :)
[01:08] <shade1> macrobad:  the only thing that makes it seem to me as if it isn't driver problems is the fact that I've tried two nics, both of which have exhibited the same problem, and both of which were recognized properly
[01:08] <aestrivex> let me find it for the records
[01:08] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: probably edit boot.ini
[01:08] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: in windows
[01:08] <ynot> gam3r111,  oh didn't know it did that
[01:08] <Carbonflux> heh, I am hoping to get the 9600 working so I can use it to run blender :)
[01:09] <gam3r111> it does
[01:09] <jtm> I added a sftp connection in Nautilus and I am connected to the server and such, but why can't emacs open up the remote files on my computer, but someone else with the same setup can open and edit remote files directly with emacs.
[01:09] <gam3r111> i want a way to edit it in ubuntu
[01:09] <KDB9000> Does anyone have ubuntu running on a HP pavilion dv5000 (AMD64 CPU)?
[01:09] <Dr_willis_> jtm,  theres the sshfs - thats totally transparent to all programs.
[01:09] <Dr_willis_> !info sshfs
[01:09] <Fryguy--> !anyone | kbrosnan
[01:10] <macrobad> shade1: Let's check routing and firewalls first
[01:10] <ynot> gam3r111,  so what is happening is win boot shows you 2 sets of ubuntu?
[01:10] <jtm> Dr_willis_: I wanted to just do it through nautilus, I think though that the application needs to be on the keyring to see it.
[01:10] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: so then mount your ntfs partition and edit it in ubuntu
[01:10] <gam3r111> no it shows ubuntui and windows
[01:10] <aestrivex> agh i cannot find uvcvideo on the system log
[01:10] <sensae> How do I make my brightness control have more levels?
[01:10] <shade1> macrobad: ok
[01:10] <aestrivex> it is filled with some random error which keeps repeating itself
[01:10] <aestrivex> its quite bizarre
[01:11] <aestrivex> but it keeps going on when my webcam is unplugged
[01:11] <aestrivex> i have no idea what it is
[01:11] <gam3r111> fry guy: how
[01:11] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex:
[01:11] <Dr_willis_> jtm,  a lot of times if its not a gnome app. they canhave issues with some of the gnome file manager 'special' things like sftp, or smb:\\ or other special  urls like that
[01:11] <gam3r111> fryguy: how
[01:11] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: assuming it is the same error repeated, paste one line of it..
[01:11] <Dr_willis_> jtm,  i just use sshfs, and have them set up when i login, that way every app sees the remote ssh machine as if the diretory was local.
[01:11] <aestrivex> [ 2755.405872] atl1 0000:02:00.0: hw csum wrong, pkt_flag:1600, err_flag:80
[01:11] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: mount /dev/yourwindowsdevice  cd to the mountpoint, find boot.ini (use locate or the find command), edit it with vim/emacs/nano/gedit/whatever
[01:12] <ynot> gam3r111, your win drive should show up in place you just gotta click on it to mount it
[01:12] <shade1> macrobad: well, if the firewall is not on the ubuntu server, then we don't have one. all that's between the ubuntu server and the linksys WRT54g router is an 8 port switch.
[01:12] <aestrivex> synaptic indicates that the uvcvideo package is installed
[01:12] <jtm> Dr_Willis_ I see, ok
[01:13] <aestrivex> um no scratch that
[01:13] <aestrivex> it says luvcview is installed
[01:13] <gam3r111> ynot
[01:13] <gam3r111> it says it cant mount the volume
[01:13] <Dr_willis_> jtm,  i dont alwyas use gnome. :) so i perfer the sshfs way. since it dosent require any window manager at all.
[01:13] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: Ah! By the way, according to http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/98760, that error message has to do with packets that are too short.
[01:14] <aestrivex> i installed uvcvideo using the instructions on this page
[01:14] <ynot> gam3r111, are ubuntu and win on same drive
[01:14] <aestrivex> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-593231.html
[01:14] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: be root
[01:14] <gam3r111> umm yea but partioned
[01:14] <macrobad> shade1: Btw, switches can be tricky as well... let's come back to that in a moment
[01:14] <c0mrade> how can I install amavisd-new
[01:15] <spiniker_numb> hello
[01:15] <aestrivex> so that packet error has nothing to do with my current problem

[01:15] <spiniker_numb> help in putting xp like button on ubuntu

[01:15] <shade1> macrobad: ok, hang on

[01:15] <gam3r111> fryguy: how do i be root
[01:15] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: It appears so. Have you rebooted since installing uvcvideo or run 'modprobe uvcvideo'?
[01:15] <spiniker_numb> i downloaded some on gnome look.org
[01:15] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: use sudo
[01:16] <aestrivex> i did reboot
[01:16] <spiniker_numb> like the start button on xp
[01:16] <gam3r111> yea but how do i mount it
[01:16] <aestrivex> i didnt run modprobe
[01:16] <Fryguy--> gam3r111: use sudo
[01:16] <aestrivex> how do i do modprobe
[01:16] <m-c> ...press Start when you want to shutdown...
[01:16] <temoto-mobi> nickrud, monit could be used to replace init.d scripts, right?
[01:16] <ynot> gam3r111, go to terminal type sudo -i then type nautilus
[01:17] <m-c> !lnw
[01:17] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: You'd use modprobe to manually insert the kernel module. First, let's check two things. Run 'lsmod' and see if uvcvideo shows in that listing. You may have to use 'sudo' to get it.
[01:17] <spiniker_numb> fryguy: like the start button on xp,i found some on gnome.org,how can use?
[01:17] <aestrivex> yes uvcvideo is there
[01:17] <derspankster> my ubuntu hardy laptop "forgets" my network settings (name and password) on a regular basis. Anyone know whats going on?
[01:17] <Fryguy--> spiniker_numb: if it's part of a theme, just use the install theme button on appearances menu
[01:17] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: OK, the module is loaded and is working, so there's no need to modprobe.
[01:18] <spiniker_numb> i know im not supposed to make look like xp,but my sister isnt really familiar with linux
[01:18] <aib_> i wrote a tutorial on how to maintain an ubuntu system that mixes packages between distributions. hope it helps someone http://episteme.arstechnica.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/96509133/m/301004223931
[01:18] <aestrivex> ok, good
[01:18] <Fryguy--> spiniker_numb: you can make your desktop look like whatever you want
[01:18] <izmeh> I've dismounted a thumbdrive, and now it won't show up when i plug it in. Any solutions?
[01:18] <Fryguy--> izmeh: remount it manually
[01:18] <bullzeye95> hey guys, I have a question.  I had ubuntu installed, but I accidentally broke it.  When it broke, so did GRUB.  So, I installed ubuntu onto a new partition, while leaving the old broken one.  This fixed my GRUB problem.  If I were to delete the whole partition of the first one, would that screw up GRUB or my windows partition?
[01:19] <spiniker_numb> yeah i know,its just for the sake of familiarity
[01:19] <izmeh> how do i go about doing that?
[01:19] <spiniker_numb> just so they can also use my ubuntu desktop
[01:19] <kantor> hi, I have renamed all the SCSI subsystem drivers (so Linux can't load them) and all the SCSI subsystem drivers are compiled as modules, but strangely the SG_GET_VERSION_NUM ioctl returns the sg driver version, how is that possible if the sg (and all the SCSI subsystem) driver was renamed and it is not loaded ??
[01:19] <gam3r111> ynot: still says it cant be mounted
[01:19] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: on that 'lsmod' you ran, did you see the spca5xx module?
[01:19] <Fryguy--> izmeh: pmount-hal
[01:20] <macrobad> shade1: in order to test the firewall (assuming you're running kernel 2.6 and using iptables), you'd have to check out the follwing commands: 'sudo iptables -t filter -L', 'sudo iptables -t nat -L', 'sudo iptables -t mangle -L', and 'sudo iptables -t raw -L'. They should be more or less empty.
[01:20] <aestrivex> felix: i should have that as well
[01:20] <m-c> bullzeye95: I think it would not - just as long as you did not boot to that old partition
[01:20] <Fryguy--> bullzeye95: probably not
[01:20] <bullzeye95> thank you
[01:21] <shade1> macrobad: ip route and rule: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25817/
[01:21] <aestrivex> felix: no, i cant find spca5xx there
[01:21] <ynot> gaminggeek,  prob cuz the drive is mounted as ubuntu since it same drive but diff partitian
[01:21] <ynot> oops
[01:21] <aestrivex> although i did install that the other day
[01:22] <ynot> that was meant for gam3rllll
[01:22] <izmeh> Fryguy--: use fdisk to get the info correct?
[01:22] <Fryguy--> izmeh: i guess
[01:22] <aestrivex> do i need spca5xx in addition to uvcvideo?
[01:22] <shade1> macrobad: ok, I'll try those
[01:23] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: It's possible that's in the kernel instead of a module. We can try running 'sudo modprobe spca5xx' and see if it accepts.
[01:23] <Sorrowful> :o
[01:23] <klos> anyone cna help with a bcm43xx wlan card? when i boot my system i have to eject the card and when its booted i have to type in the command sudo modprobe bcm43xx

[01:23] <daggerx> hello people need some help
[01:23] <klos> possible to run this stuff at startup so i dont have to do it all the time ?
[01:23] <Sorrowful> Hello guys.
[01:23] <Fryguy--> !broadcom | klos
[01:23] <Commie_Jebus> why has noone ever made a Adium port :(
[01:23] <macrobad> shade1: it looks like you don't have a default gateway configured, and it means you cannot access internet. However, you should still be able to communicate within your LAN, because the default gateway is not necessary there.
[01:23] <Fryguy--> Commie_Jebus: adium is a port of pidgin

[01:24] <xserverx> did some one know server discussion channel ???
[01:24] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: From the results I'm finding, that particular model is not supported. There are many similarly named models, but that particular one has no support. http://hardware4linux.info/component/35516/
[01:24] <klos> Fryguy--, its empty :)
[01:24] <m-c> klos: You might consider purchasing a USB or PCMCIA wifi device, if all else fails.  There are linux driver issues with many wifi cards these days.  https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/32516  The cost of a wifi device may be much less than the effort required to enable and maintain a difficult to support wifi device with non-free drivers.   They are less than $20 these days, some less than $10 at Fry's Electronics.  No one is that broke they c

[01:25] <shade1> macrobad: I may have typed it in wrong, let me check. I tried the iptables commands, and none of the categories had any rules, that I could tell.
[01:25] <Fryguy--> klos: scroll through the page..
[01:25] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: One last thing to try...hold one...
[01:25] <Fryguy--> klos: it's certainly not an empty page, unless your browser is broken
[01:25] <aestrivex> felix: according to http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/ it is supported
[01:25] <macrobad> shade1: that means that there was no firewall configured.
[01:25] <klos> uh ok :)
[01:25] <klos> took soem tiem to load haha
[01:25] <IndyGunFreak> m-c: problem is, how many do you buy before one works the way you want
[01:25] <aestrivex> felix: as well as according to http://opensource.creative.com/webcam.html
[01:26] <macrobad> shade1: So, what's left?
[01:26] <daggerx> can some1 help me out
[01:26] <klos> it still doenst solve my problem, its not a problem with the network card, its an ubuntu issue
[01:26] <Fryguy--> daggerx: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=B90&q=ubuntu+wpa&btnG=Search
[01:26] <bullzeye95> alright, I deleted the partition without a problem :).  Now, if I were to boot into it, would anything bad happen?
[01:26] <klos> the network card works fine, just ubuntu always wants to load the wrong driver, i think i have to blacklist something and put the other driver in the modules
[01:27] <macrobad> daggerx: you'd better stick to NetworkManager (default with Ubuntu). If not, you'd have to install and configure wpa_supplicant.
[01:27] <derspankster> my ubuntu hardy laptop "forgets" my network settings (name and password) on a regular basis. Anyone know whats going on?
[01:27] <daggerx> thats what i have
[01:27] <daggerx> i have it installed
[01:27] <daggerx> configuration: broadcast=yes driver=ndiswrapper+bcmwl5 driverversion=1.52
[01:27] <shade1> macrobad: well, you were right about the gw, apparently when I rebooted because of the char map error, it forgot about the gw, but I added it back in.
[01:27] <lastnode> has anyone here ever used google talk / skype successfully under vmware running xp, on ubuntu?
[01:27] <daggerx> my wpa sup list has enabled=0 in it
[01:27] <daggerx> my wpa conf is empty
[01:27] <bob3213243> i am trying to connect to my home computer via Tight VNC. How do I connect when I am not on it's network. I have the WANip and LAN ip as well ass port 22 forwarded.
[01:27] <daggerx> my lo is in the interface file
[01:28] <shade1> macrobad: also, that first ip address was supposed to be <IP_ADDRESS>/24, not 192.168.0/24
[01:28] <Fryguy--> bob3213243: vnc uses port 5900, not 22
[01:28] <bob3213243> fryguy so I just need port 5900 forwarded so that local ip?
[01:28] <Fryguy--> bob3213243: yes
[01:29] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: Ah, I see what you mean. The last step, then, is finding the applications that accept the UVC driver.
[01:29] <macrobad> daggerx: That is what I am speaking about. You either let NetworkManager configure it for yourself, XOR let the NetworkManager do it, and trust me, it is better to leave this job to the NetworkManager, and not to edit any files by hand!
[01:29] <shade1> macrobad: hmm, well, I think that there's still a chance (minor?) of driver problems, because lsmod claims that neither of the two drivers that are supposed to be used by my nic are being used. There was also the possibility of the switch causing problems, or routing, I think you mentioned.
[01:29] <daggerx> macro i didnt
[01:30] <daggerx> i left it alone afteter i did the ndiswrapper from that no fluff stuff page
[01:30] <lastnode> compiz fusion that comes with ubuntu, when im looking for themes for it, i should look for emerald themes, yes?
[01:30] <daggerx> i did what it said and I got nothing
[01:30] <Fryguy--> lastnode: yes
[01:30] <bullzeye95> Now that I deleted my broken ubuntu partition, how would I go about deleting it from GRUB so that I don't accidentally try to boot into it in the future?
[01:30] <macrobad> shade1: Yeah. If the IP settings are correct, it is either the driver, or the switch (I doubt, a router).
[01:30] <aestrivex> felix: apparently other people have had success in getting the UVC driver to run with a variety of standard applications with other camera models
[01:30] <Fryguy--> bullzeye95: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:30] <lastnode> Fryguy--, thanks
[01:30] <Sorrowful> is there a way to run my Microsoft keyboard and mouse elite for bluetooth on ubuntu?
[01:31] <bullzeye95> ah, ok, thanks.  I couldn't remember the path
[01:31] <daggerx> name the file and ill tell u what in it
[01:31] <aestrivex> i dont understand why this one is different
[01:31] <lastnode> im also wondering about google talk and vmware, has anyone tried it?
[01:31] <daggerx> interfaces has the lo loopback
[01:31] <Fryguy--> lastnode: pidgin works with google talk, as for vmware, that works fine as well
[01:32] <lastnode> Fryguy--, i have a webcam driver that doesnt work under *nix, will it work in vmware?
[01:32] <Fryguy--> lastnode: probably not
[01:32] <lastnode> ok Fryguy--, thanks, that's pretty much the only thing that's keeping me dual booting. that and starcraft, but that i can run in a window
[01:32] <macrobad> shade1: Try to sniff the trafic with tcpdump, or check the switch config, or check the same card in a different environment.
[01:33] <macrobad> shade1: Sorry, I cannot suggest anything else remotely.
[01:33] <daggerx> macrobad network manager is showing my wnetworks
[01:33] <daggerx> but when i try to connect i cant
[01:33] <shade1> macrobad: well, this card just came out of a working computer, so I know the nic is good; the only problem is that it was on a windows computer, so I don't know how well linux supports it
[01:33] <Fungusman> Hey guys
[01:34] <bullzeye95> haha, another problem.  I don't know which ubuntu partition is left :(
[01:34] <Lo_Pan> lol
[01:34] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: I had to check something myself. /dev/video0 shows up when I plug in my Quickcam IM.
[01:34] <Fungusman> I got a kubuntu live cd I would like to add the KDE desktop to my current ubuntu install
[01:34] <macrobad> shade1: run ubuntu livecd on that machine!
[01:34] <Fungusman> Thing is, I'm on really slow internet
[01:34] <macrobad> daggerx: hmm..
[01:34] <MariachiAC> How do I connect to a wireless network using terminal? Wireless network is secured using wpa personal.
[01:34] <Fungusman> Can I dl the pakages fromt he cd ?
[01:34] <Fryguy--> MariachiAC: use iwconfig
[01:34] <daggerx> ive done a little homework
[01:34] <aestrivex> felix: that's weird
[01:35] <daggerx> and even it I leave the files the way they are, i still got nothing
[01:35] <aestrivex> felix: different applications are detecting the presence of the camera, even though they can't use it
[01:35] <macrobad> daggerx: what's the name of your interface?
[01:35] <MariachiAC> Friguy-- I do that iwconfig wlan0 essid "network name"   Then what?
[01:35] <aestrivex> as in drop down menus recognize that there is a video device called Live! Cam VF04 whatever
[01:35] <shade1> macrobad: the switch doesn't have any configuration, it's just a switch. Unless it has some sort of button on the back. I could try sticking the cable in another jack, but we already verified that the physical layer worked
[01:35] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: For ekiga, I had to purposefully pick the V4L driver over the V4L2 driver, but you mentioned that doesn't work for you.
[01:35] <Shiba> what is the codename for ubuntu 8.04?
[01:35] <Shiba> Edgy?
[01:35] <aestrivex> yeah it doesnt work
[01:35] <____Max> I'm having huge problems with hardy lately. Firstly, the terminal screen is blank, firefox wont start, my sounds not working with pidgin, everything's falling apart.
[01:35] <shade1> Shiba: Hardy Heron
[01:35] <Shiba> thx
[01:36] <daggerx> wlan0
[01:36] <daggerx> i believe
[01:36] <Fryguy--> Shiba: hardy heron
[01:36] <bullzeye95> how would I comment a line on GRUB's menu.lst?  Is it # or ##?
[01:36] <Shiba> thx
[01:36] <Fryguy--> bullzeye95: #
[01:36] <aestrivex> felix: oddly enough one of the instructions that i came across indicated that uvcvideo only worked with v4L2 and not with v4L
[01:36] <macrobad> shade1: ah, ok. Actually, switches might be very complicated, and support VLANs, i.e. even if physical layer works they can mess up stuff on the mac layer.
[01:36] <daggerx> logical name: wlan0
[01:36] <bullzeye95> thanks
[01:36] <ynot> bullzeye95, look in gparted to see what drive or partition you edited
[01:36] <aestrivex> at least iirc
[01:36] <macrobad> daggerx: you're lucky
[01:37] <FelixTheCat> aestrivex: Hate to say it, but I'm out of ideas. You could unplug the camera, run 'ls /dev > list1.txt', then plug in the cam and run 'ls /dev > list2.txt', then compare them both. That'd at least show you if there is a dynamic /dev file.
[01:37] <daggerx> whah - what do u mean
[01:37] <macrobad> daggerx: I am almost sure I know what's your problem
[01:37] <macrobad> :)
[01:37] <aestrivex> ok ill try that
[01:37] <daggerx> ha
[01:37] <daggerx> see - i told u i did my homework
[01:37] <xbj9000> what's /etc/mtab?
[01:37] <eboyjr> I don't want to have to wait 3 seconds for the GNOME calculator to start for a quick calculation. Is there anything that will help? Also, how do you say GNOME? I say it like Gee-Nome
[01:38] <Fryguy--> eboyjr: nome
[01:38] <MariachiAC> my screen reader says it as nome
[01:38] <Shiba> eboyjr: try bc for your calculation needs
[01:38] <Fryguy--> eboyjr: or ganome
[01:38] <____Max> Does anyone know how to fix my problems? This is a really weird issue, and I don't feel like restarting my computer every single time it happens.
[01:38] <Shiba> and its pronounced Guh-Know-Me
[01:39] <eboyjr> Shiba:: I'd rather use the GUI... plus the terminal takes 3 seconds too
[01:39] <eboyjr> and i dont want to leave my gui
[01:39] <daggerx> ok macro - what my issue
[01:39] <Marv3lz> noam
[01:39] <eboyjr> guh know me sounds cool
[01:39] <aestrivex> felix: the two files are exactly the same
[01:39] <Commie_Jebus> I like the termnal for simple stuffs, GUI for complex stuffs
[01:39] <shade1> macrobad: well, even if part of the problem is the switch, I think we would have caught some icmp packets, right?
[01:39] <aestrivex> i have no idea why the device isn't being read
[01:39] <Marv3lz> it's noam, the g is silent
[01:39] <macrobad> daggerx: In my case I also have wlan0, and it doesn't always work, but I've found a workaround. The problem is that the new kernel network stack (wlan0 instead of eth1 tells me about it) has a bit different way to configure. If you're running Ubuntu 8.04, I can just post my scripts in order not to explain all the stuff.
[01:39] <DarkAudit> it's embarrassing... I'm horde and I'm using GNOME >.<
[01:40] <cr> hello room
[01:40] <bazhang> !ot
[01:40] <macrobad> shade1: right
[01:40] <bullzeye95> What do you know, another problem... I don't have permissions to edit menu.lst.  How would I get the correct permissions to edit it without messing something up like I usually do?
[01:40] <aestrivex> or why it seems to be partially working
[01:40] <aestrivex> even though its not being read
[01:40] <macrobad> daggerx: 8.04?
[01:40] <daggerx> yup
[01:40] <r00t> good neight for all
[01:40] <ubunubi> DarkAudit: wow player, eh?
[01:40] <daggerx> can u email em
[01:40] <daggerx> would that be easier or here
[01:40] <macrobad> daggerx: hold on, let me paste them
[01:40] <Ericthegreat> hello
[01:40] <bob3213243> What do I type to gain root access in dolphin?
[01:41] <Ericthegreat> can i install ubuntu on my esata drive?
[01:41] <DarkAudit> ubunubi: yep... I get a fps hit in WINE, but it runs just fine with Hardy
[01:41] <xtknight> Ericthegreat, not sure.  isnt esata just a sata port outside your pc?
[01:41] <xtknight> no hurt to give it a try
[01:41] <Ericthegreat> kinda yea i guess
[01:41] <XVII> yes you can
[01:41] <bob3213243> What do I type to gain root access in dolphin?
[01:41] <ubunubi> DarkAudit: what video card? my hd 3850 is barely playable in org at 1024x768
[01:41] <strixv> Hey guys, I just installed the lamp-server package (metapackage?) and now when I ps -A it shows 6 instances of "apache2." Is that normal? thx
[01:41] <XVII> you just have to boot of of usb/firewire
[01:42] <Commie_Jebus> whats a MUD?
[01:42] <DarkAudit> ubunubi: nvidia 7800 GS
[01:42] <ubunubi> bob3213243: what you tried running dolphin with sudo?  sudo dolphin
[01:42] <aestrivex> MUD = multi user dungeon
[01:42] <Ericthegreat> i just do the norm install but to the external drive?
[01:42] <ubunubi> DarkAudit: what screen res...and fps?
[01:42] <xtknight> Ericthegreat, the drive should be detected like everything else
[01:42] <unop> emphasis on _should be_
[01:42] <XVII> yes. by the way, what size is it?
[01:42] <xtknight> so <external/internal/any-other-controller> ---->   Graphical installer
[01:42] <Fryguy--> Commie_Jebus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUD
[01:42] <Ericthegreat> 500 gig
[01:43] <XVII> thats great
[01:43] <XVII> it should work well.
[01:43] <Ericthegreat> it wouldent all go to ubuntu lol >.>;
[01:43] <DarkAudit> ubunubi: 1440x900... I can get ~40-50 fps in quiet areas... ~15-25 in Black Temple... do you have -opengl at the end of the launcher command?
[01:43] <ubunubi> DarkAudit: yes. and all the pixel shaders and what not disabled too. ATI drivers just suck that badly
[01:43] <XVII> smaller esata drives/flash drives burn out quicker with an os on them. that's why i asked.
[01:44] <Ericthegreat> ah i c
[01:44] <unop> strixv, yes
[01:44] <ubunubi> DarkAudit: what server ar eyou on?
[01:44] <aestrivex> lol these are wonderful ubuntu-related questions
[01:45] <DarkAudit> ubunubi: Dark Iron... member of Panda Attack, the pvponline guild
[01:45] <macrobad> daggerx: the first is here --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25820/
[01:45] <Shiba> eboyjr: stop whining then.  either use the calculator, or  fix it so it doesn't take so long
[01:45] <macrobad> daggerx: the second is here --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25821/
[01:45] <Shiba> eboyjr: you've got the source  code, profile it
[01:46] <ubunubi> DarkAudit: ah. i have a rogue alt on dark iron from a long time ago but have mains on archimonde
[01:46] <bullzeye95> Fryguy--: Sorry, but one last question :P.  I don't have the permissions to edit menu.lst.  How would I be able to edit it without messing something up?
[01:46] <macrobad> daggerx: you should backup your current versions, then substitue them with updated ones.
[01:46] <unop> bullzeye95, gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:46] <bullzeye95> thank you
[01:46] <unop> bullzeye95, but you should never have to edit the file directly ..
[01:46] <macrobad> daggerx: as soon as it is done, you should be able to 'sudo ifdown wlan0 && sudo ifup wlan0' to bring it online.
[01:46] <Fryguy--> bullzeye95: use sudo
[01:46] <tvrtko> im getting strange glibc runtime error with my code
[01:46] <bullzeye95> I shouldn't have to edit it directly?  why is that?
[01:47] <tvrtko> *** glibc detected *** ...............: invalid next size (fast): 0x0804b028 ***
[01:47] <tvrtko> wtf?
[01:47] <bullzeye95> could I change things another way?
[01:47] <xtknight> tvrtko, well what's your code
[01:47] <unop> bullzeye95, because you should let the package scripts set it up
[01:47] <xtknight> tvrtko, want to paste the source on pastebin or such?
[01:47] <unop> bullzeye95, what are you trying to do?
[01:47] <daggerx> sweet, which file to open to edit with this
[01:47] <bullzeye95> I deleted an ubuntu partition, and I want to remove it
[01:47] <tvrtko> using malloc on a char array and than free. nothing special
[01:47] <macrobad> daggerx: The changes I've made to the scripts are related to the order the commands are executed, and to some parameters.
[01:47] <bullzeye95> it was broken
[01:48] <unop> bullzeye95, but you still want to boot ubuntu?
[01:48] <tvrtko> char * mystring = (50 * sizeof mystring)
[01:48] <tvrtko> free(mystring)
[01:48] <macrobad> daggerx: It's written in the beginning of the file.
[01:48] <bullzeye95> yes, I have another partition installed though
[01:48] <daggerx> ah
[01:48] <xtknight> tvrtko, what language?
[01:48] <bullzeye95> I just wanted to remove the boot option for the old one
[01:48] <tvrtko> c
[01:48] <daggerx> gimme a minute
[01:48] <xtknight> tvrtko, char* mystring=malloc(char[50]); free(mystring);    see how that works for you.  i am not honestly sure abotu your syntax
[01:49] <Phixion> anyone decent at scripting want to write me an RSS script for terminal? :D
[01:49] <tvrtko> ill upload full code somewhere wait
[01:49] <unop> bullzeye95, all you should have to do -- considering you are running the ubuntu install you want to keep.  sudo update-grub -y
[01:49] <shade1> so macrobad, if you're not too tired, what do you want to look at first, routing, or drivers?
[01:49] <unop> bullzeye95, err,  sorry.  sudo update-grub
[01:50] <daggerx> so im assuming the sudo gedit deal
[01:50] <TropicalDude> Hi, Im new to ubuntu, Im having problmes with sound/audio when flash player play sounds it blocks Desktop sounds or multimedia apps, and viceversa
[01:50] <macrobad> shade1: :) Well, I was preparing to go to sleep already, but still I'm waiting for daggerx. So, let us start from routing.
[01:50] <unop> daggerx, gksudo gedit  rather .. don't use sudo with X apps
[01:50] <joshual> is there a good small quick image editor for quick simple edits when you dont want to load gimp for more complex stuff?
[01:50] <unop> joshual, gthumb
[01:50] <macrobad> daggerx: It would work, but don't forget to backup the files!
[01:51] <bullzeye95> I am not running the install.  Do I still need to manually edit it (or is it the easiest way)?
[01:51] <unop> joshual, but it depends again on what you want to do ?
[01:51] <macrobad> daggerx: Also, sudo nano might be easier.
[01:51] <tvrtko> xtknight: http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/5733
[01:51] <shade1> macrobad: ok, how does routing work? I've looked at route -n several times now, and everything seems ok, but I don't know if that's all there is to it, or whether I've done it properly.
[01:51] <Commie_Jebus>  why cant linux run mac apps I mean there both unix based but it can run widows which arenot related in any way
[01:51] <bullzeye95> oh, sorry.  I read your message wrong
[01:51] <unop> bullzeye95, well, if you know what you are doing - there is no stopping you from editing it -- but the recommended way is to use update-grub, it regenerates the menu.lst based on your system's setup
[01:52] <bazhang> Commie_Jebus, that is offtopic here
[01:52] <Commie_Jebus> bazhang: ISNT THIS #UBUNTU
[01:52] <unop> Commie_Jebus, linux does not run windows apps -- wine does
[01:52] <Commie_Jebus> sorry for caps
[01:52] <xtknight> tvrtko, ok i can reproduce it.  i will let you know if i figure out what's wrong
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> Commie_Jebus: its ubuntu support, thats not a support issue.
[01:52] <bazhang> Commie_Jebus, take it to offtopic
[01:53] <tvrtko> xtknight: seems like the problem is in malloc
[01:53] <bullzeye95> well, I just commented out the boot options for the broken one.  Is that the only thing I have to do to update it?  If not, I'll just do the other thing you said.
[01:53] <joshual> unop: basically just crop
[01:53] <unop> joshual, gthumb then
[01:53] <xtknight> tvrtko, ive never seen this before, but that doesnt mean it's incorrect.  sizeof *result
[01:53] <administrator_> hiiiiiiiiiiii
[01:53] <joshual> unop: cool thanks
[01:53] <unop> bullzeye95, that ought to do, yea
[01:53] <bullzeye95> ok, thanks a lot :)
[01:53] <sonofawhore> hi
[01:53] <macrobad> shade1: To start with, as a sidenote not all the routes are displayed there. Honestly speaking, there are dozens of "system" ones, which should never be modified. You should be looking at routes to the networks you're connected to straight away, and then to the default gateways.
[01:54] <tvrtko> sizeof (char) gives the same error
[01:54] <sonofawhore> how can i install apache?
[01:54] <mike3454> hi anyone know how to quick make the start bar pop up like in windows
[01:54] <Flannel> tvrtko: You need to malloc one more, for the null.
[01:54] <xtknight> tvrtko, are you adding an ull..
[01:54] <xtknight> ya what eh said
[01:54] <unop> sonofawhore, you should change your name first, it's really not appropriate in here
[01:54] <xtknight> he even!
[01:54] <joshual> unop: eyeofgnome doesnt do it does it? that seems to be the default image viewer
[01:54] <kenbw2> sonofawhore: whats it for?
[01:54] <macrobad> shade1: routes to the networks you're connected to, are identified by the network address in the first field, and zeros in the second.
[01:55] <tvrtko> Flannel: dont understand
[01:55] <Flannel> erohwafonos: sudo apt-get install apache2
[01:55] <erohwafonos> kenbw2: webserver
[01:55] <unop> erohwafonos, not funny
[01:55] <xtknight> tvrtko, malloc one more char for the terminating null
[01:55] <Flannel> tvrtko: Come to #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:55] <shade1> macrobad: ok
[01:55] <xtknight> tvrtko, (1+str1_len+str2_len)*sizeof(char)
[01:55] <macrobad> shade1: routes to gateways are the other way round, plus they are marked with "UG" letters usually.
[01:55] <victor__> hi i need help loading an unlisted tv tuner in Ubuntu for the cx88 chipset
[01:55] <tvrtko> xtknight Flannel
[01:55] <kenbw2> erohwafonos: to view php files?
[01:55] <x__> hi
[01:55] <tvrtko> xtknight Flannel yeah i understand, ill try it
[01:55] <shade1> well, from the last time I looked, the network was <IP_ADDRESS>, and the gateway was <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:56] <joshual> can eyeofgnome crop?
[01:56] <shade1> macrobad: whoops, I forgot to put your name on that last one
[01:56] <unop> joshual, i'm not sure it can, but i wouldn't be surprised if it does
[01:57] <macrobad> shade1: as long, as you have ip: <IP_ADDRESS> netmask: <IP_ADDRESS> it should work ok, and you should be able to see two lines in the 'route -n' output: the network line, and the gateway line
[01:57] <kenbw2> mike3454: do you want a start button?
[01:57] <mike3454> is there a way i can make my own keyboard shortcuts
[01:57] <joshual> unop: apparently not
[01:57] <mike3454> just want a shortcut like the windows key ,
[01:58] <Fryguy--> joshual: try imagemagick if you goal is to crop something
[01:58] <x__> hi people!
[01:58] <kenbw2> Alt+F1 by default
[01:58] <unop> joshual, whatis eog  eog (1)              - a GNOME image viewer # that says it all :)
[01:58] <kenbw2> mike3454: Alt+F1 by default
[01:58] <Maslow> Hey, just out of curiosity does anyone here happen to know if Wubi determines what sort of processor you have (32/64bit) before downloading the distro image? Or a way to check which its installed?
[01:58] <joshual> unop true
[01:58] <crh0872> need some quick help with a bash script, anyone available?
[01:58] <macrobad> shade1: That's it about routing, unless you have played with iptables, which you told you haven't.
[01:58] <Fryguy--> Maslow: uname -r
[01:58] <mike3454> cool thanks
[01:58] <xtknight> !anyone| crh0872
[01:58] <Maslow> Thank you Fryguy--.
[01:58] <macrobad> shade1: Do we check the drivers?
[01:58] <unop> crh0872, /join #bash
[01:58] <crh0872> unop thanks
[01:59] <shade1> macrobad: nope, I didn't know about iptables until you mentioned them
[01:59] <shade1> macrobad: sure
[01:59] <erohwafonos> how can i make files antivirus stealth?
[01:59] <Fryguy--> erohwafonos: what? please elaborate
[01:59] <macrobad> shade1: Ok, iptables - is a generic firewall / routing tool for linux starting from 2.6
[01:59] <Maslow> erohwafonos, Create a rootkit.
[01:59] <Maslow> lol.
[02:00] <unop> !ot
[02:00] <victor__>  hi i need help loading an unlisted tv tuner in Ubuntu for the cx88 chipset
[02:00] <erohwafonos> i don't want clam av to detect my file
[02:00] <erohwafonos> so what do i have to change?
[02:00] <kernel_ghost> victor__:  what is the card
[02:00] <Fryguy--> erohwafonos: lol
[02:00] <daggerx> ok i copied and pasted both files
[02:00] <Fryguy--> erohwafonos: wrong channel
[02:00] <macrobad> shade1: So, let us identify your drivers. If you're using PCI card, you can use lspci to get the model number
[02:00] <daggerx> whats the easiest way to test this
[02:00] <victor__> kworld ATSC 120
[02:00] <bazhang> erohwafonos, take it elsewhere
[02:01] <erohwafonos> okaay
[02:01] <Maslow> bazhang, Is it ok to tell someone where elsewhere is?
[02:01] <victor__> or conexant cx23800
[02:01] <Kcaj> Yo
[02:01] <macrobad> shade1: now do modprobe -l and try to find your stuff there
[02:01] <bazhang> Maslow, PM him
[02:01] <Kcaj> I'm sad
[02:01] <Kcaj> I can't start Ubuntu
[02:01] <Kcaj> It goes to some busybox crap
[02:01] <Kcaj> And just a command line
[02:01] <macrobad> shade1: or lsmod
[02:01] <Kcaj> This happened after I installed Compiz Fusion
[02:01] <Kcaj> Any ideas?
[02:01] <shade1> macrobad: I've tried two nics. The first was a Davicom dm9009 10/100, and the second was a realtek rtl8139 10/100, which is what I have in there now. both times the card was recognized, and the driver modules loaded, but lsmod claims that they aren't being used.
[02:01] <FAJALOU> help help!  i am getting a kernel panic, right now i am in a live cd and i can see my / partition and mount it; what i am guessing is that i installed startupmanager and it gave me an error but shutdown, and when i rebooted i got the kernel error, what can i do to either a) reinstall the kernel on the root partition, b) removing startupmanager from the livecd and restoring it how it was, or c) fixing it another way !!
[02:02] <Fryguy--> Kcaj: so find out what happened and fix it, try /var/log for starters
[02:02] <Maslow> Where would I go to learn what the outputs for uname -r mean? Is there a page on the wiki that describes it?
[02:02] <shade1> macrobad: ok, be back in a second
[02:02] <macrobad> daggerx: do you have dhcp or static addreses?
[02:02] <Kcaj> Yeah well, it is difficult when I can't get online while I am doing that
[02:02] <JarrettGreen> Hey noob here. I've had a dapper server running fine for months
[02:02] <Kcaj> I am not n00b, but close
[02:02] <daggerx> dhcp
[02:02] <victor__> kernel_ghost:  Conexant CX23800 or Kworld ATSC 120
[02:02] <JarrettGreen> just upgraded to hardy
[02:02] <joshual> is there anyway to remove something like eyeofgnome without removing ubuntu-desktop package?
[02:02] <Fryguy--> shade1: do you have an onboard nic
[02:02] <daggerx> im on an rj45 right now
[02:02] <ubunubi> maslow: uname -r tells you your kernel version
[02:02] <xtknight> victor__, sudo modprobe cx88 card=67 for kworld atsc 120 as you mentioned yesterday. http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb?cmd=file;file=linux/Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.cx88;filenode=-1;style=raw
[02:02] <Kcaj> I'll go check /var/log but I mean... maybe if I start in safe mode it will work?
[02:02] <FAJALOU> joshual:  you should be able to just go sudo apt-get remove eyeofgnome
[02:02] <JarrettGreen> Apache now needs 'apache2-default' in my url find files
[02:02] <JarrettGreen> I forgot where this was.
[02:03] <macrobad> shade1: err... how does lsmod claim there are not used. I've though lsmod tells whether it is loaded or not. If it is listed bu lsmod, then it is loaded.
[02:03] <xtknight> apt-get remove eog actually
[02:03] <Maslow> I did not know that. Thank you.
[02:03] <victor__> hey xtknight i did that and it tells me the driver is unknown/generic
[02:03] <ubunubi> maslow:: open terminal and type uname -r..you can see the exact output
[02:03] <macrobad> daggerx: ok, then can you paste output of 'ifconfig wlan0' and 'iwconfig wlan0'?
[02:04] <joshual> FAJALOU: apt-get wants to remove ubuntu-desktop
[02:04] <JarrettGreen> Though, could I move all of the files from apache2-default into var/www and be fine?
[02:04] <Gun_Smoke> I'm trying to have firefox use thunderbird instead of evolution.. I know it's in about:config But I can't remember what I need to change what to what.. Ideas/
[02:04] <FAJALOU> joshual:  then go into synaptic, and see if it will let you remove it from there w/o that
[02:04] <FAJALOU> help help!  i am getting a kernel panic, right now i am in a live cd and i can see my / partition and mount it; what i am guessing is that i installed startupmanager and it gave me an error but shutdown, and when i rebooted i got the kernel error, what can i do to either a) reinstall the kernel on the root partition, b) removing startupmanager from the livecd and restoring it how it was, or c) fixing it another way !!
[02:04] <ubunubi> gun_smoke:: system>preference>preferred applications
[02:04] <Flannel> Gun_Smoke: update-alternatives --config mail-client
[02:04] <Maslow> Right, I got that much. I'm just not entirely sure how to determine if this is a 32 or 64 bit distrobution of ubuntu from the kernel version.
[02:04] <kernel_ghost> victor__:  have u built the latest v4l
[02:05] <Fryguy--> Maslow: i686 or amd64
[02:05] <Maslow> amd64.
[02:05] <FAJALOU> 64 bit

[02:05] <strixv> ubuntu startup services: How do you control them? I just installed the lamp-server metapackage and I can't figure out how to get it to only start when I want it to, rather than at system boot
[02:05] <FloodBot2> daggerx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:05] <daggerx>           collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
[02:05] <victor__> what's the latest build for v4l kernel_ghost?
[02:05] <daggerx>           RX bytes:5821 (5.6 KB)  TX bytes:17742 (17.3 KB)
[02:05] <xtknight> victor__, type sudo modprobe -r cx88xx && sudo insmod /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/video/cx88/cx88xx.ko card=67
[02:05] <FAJALOU> !paste | daggerx
[02:05]  * IndyGunFreak sighs
[02:05] <Maslow> I would assume that Wubi may just download the 32 bit distro since 99% of peoples processors would support it.
[02:05] <kernel_ghost> victor__:  i have several new model cards that only work with the latest v4l source
[02:05] <Gun_Smoke> ubunubi, Thanks.. It's gotten even easier.
[02:05] <Maslow> I don't know that for a fact though obviously.
[02:05] <ubunubi> maslow: uname with the -a option will tell you that..it'll say like i686 or x64
[02:06] <kernel_ghost> victor__: u can use mercurial and the hg clone command to get the source and then build it
[02:06] <Maslow> Ah, I see it now. Thank you.

[02:07] <daggerx> sorry

[02:07] <joshual> so bizzare although i'm supposed to crop with gthumb i cant seem to actually apply it to the image
[02:07] <daggerx> im learning hold on
[02:08] <daggerx> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25822/
[02:08] <FAJALOU> how can i reinstall my kernel for ubuntu from my live cd
[02:08] <shade1> macrobad: whoops, let's try again shall we: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25823/
[02:08] <gaspipe1> hey people
[02:08] <nuno_nunes> HI PPL
[02:08] <m-c> FAJALOU: slow down .. what is the error for what you are trying to do?
[02:09] <macrobad> shade1: so it is loaded.
[02:09] <FAJALOU> m-c Kernel panic -not syncing :VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[02:09] <mariorz> is there some setting that kills cron jobs after a certain ammount of time? it seems my cronjobs are not completing
[02:09] <m-c> FAJALOU: Is that coming from the grub boot?
[02:10] <shade1> macrobad: yes, but supposedly not used, or do I misunderstand the third column?
[02:10] <macrobad> daggerx: so, you have your wireless interface down now.
[02:10] <guyzmo> hi
[02:10] <m-c> FAJALOU: Is the LiveCD working for you okay ?
[02:10] <FAJALOU> m-c no i can get into grub fine, it's when i actually try to load ubuntu, my windows partition
[02:10] <FAJALOU> load
[02:10] <guyzmo> how do I get the gui to configure my xorg ? :)
[02:10] <jh5386> can someone help me with a networking problem?
[02:10] <FAJALOU> m-c yes that is what i am running right now (gotta love ndiswrapper)
[02:10] <daggerx> im on the rj45 right now
[02:10] <m-c> FAJALOU: Can you backup /home and re-install Ubuntu?  That may be the easiest thing to do.
[02:10] <xtknight> guyzmo, gksu displayconfig-gtk   ?
[02:11] <xtknight> depeneds if you use fglrx,nvidia,or other
[02:11] <daggerx> want me to go try it and come back
[02:11] <christos__> hi there i cat't run some java softwares in ubuntu why
[02:11] <macrobad> shade1: no, it tells whether it is used by other kernel modules
[02:11] <xtknight> fglrx: gksu amdcccle  ; nvidia: gksu nvidia-settings
[02:11] <m-c> AMD developing open source ATI drivers
[02:11] <shade1> macrobad: ok
[02:11] <FAJALOU> m-c /home is on a sep. partition, but i just did that like a week ago, for a different reason,,, is there any way around it?? like synaptic etc is working fine on the live cd
[02:11] <shade1> macrobad: so then how do I tell whether it works for the card or not?
[02:11] <xtknight> yup radeonhd is decent for r5xx +rs6xx chipsets, altho r6xx need some time
[02:12] <macrobad> daggerx: can you just bring it up with 'sudo ifup wlan0' and test by scanning the environment with 'sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning'?
[02:12] <m-c> FAJALOU: Yeah, it can be a nucience reinstalling, but at least it is a last resort
[02:12] <FAJALOU> m-c true, but is there another way to fix it?...
[02:12] <zblach> anyone know how to get reiser to shut up during the boot process?
[02:13] <jscinoz> Hi i use ubuntu 8.04 on amd64, and I'm having trouble getting a 32bit binary game to work (ETQW) i got lib32asound2 and now the game starts, but i cannot get it to work with pulseaudio, i believe i need a lib32 version of libsdl or something, but this is not in the repo, any ideas?
[02:13] <macrobad> shade1: Well, if it is loaded - it means, it works: you cannot tell exactly what are the calls being made without kernel debugging.
[02:13] <shade1> macrobad: hmm
[02:13] <m-c> FAJALOU: a kernel error indicates the /boot is not happy.  did you muck around with it?
[02:14] <FAJALOU> i used some stupid package called startupmanager, and i got an error message but it closed out so fast i didn't have the chance to read it...
[02:14] <m-c> I reinstall Ubuntu at a drop of a hat - it is so easy
[02:14] <shade1> macrobad: well then, I suppose I'll have to presume that the driver works
[02:14] <shade1> macrobad: what's left?
[02:14] <macrobad> shade1: think of it as of a library being loaded into ram: as soon as a function is required, it is called...
[02:14] <Fryguy--> shade1: do you have an onboard nic?
[02:14] <FAJALOU> m-c i know it's easy but it's just easier if i can work around it,
[02:14] <macrobad> shade1: now, I'm confused.
[02:14] <FAJALOU> esp, b/c i just recently did it.
[02:14] <shade1> macrobad: what do you mean?
[02:14] <m-c> Is it? How much time will you spend researching this issue?
[02:15] <shade1> Fryguy--: nope
[02:15] <macrobad> shade1: do you have any http or telnet servers, or ftp in your lan?
[02:15] <daggerx> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25825/
[02:15] <daggerx> hows that
[02:15] <zblach> when i boot, i get all this debugging information from reiserfs. how can i show errors only?
[02:15] <shade1> macrobad: what do you mean?
[02:15] <Fryguy--> shade1: pastebin the results of lspci
[02:15] <FAJALOU> well m-c i was going to come here for help, and if not, then i was just going to go see if someone could send me their /boot partition, and see if that fixes the problem...
[02:15] <macrobad> shade1: try telnetting to them with 'telnet ip.ad.dr.ess port'
[02:15] <Flannel> FAJALOU: SUM should only tweak the grub menu (well, and associated files), and should be fixable.
[02:16] <FAJALOU> flannel:  ok then what is wrong ?  ;)
[02:16] <m-c> FAJALOU: Maybe someone here has the answer - I hope I am not stopping anyone from speaking up
[02:16] <beautifulsnow> hehe i wonder, how many miles do i have to walk to find a music player with ability to change Pitch/speed/tempo?
[02:16] <Fryguy--> beautifulsnow: audacity should do all of that for you
[02:16] <FAJALOU> flannel:  the only thing i really changed in SUM was splash image,,,,
[02:16] <shade1> Fryguy--: I have the relevant line pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25823/
[02:16] <Fryguy--> beautifulsnow: that's a function of music editing software, not music playback software (typically)
[02:17] <Flannel> FAJALOU: Alright, pastebin your menu.lst (this is the menu.lst on the mounted harddrive)
[02:17] <m-c> beautifulsnow: many - kind of an odd request
[02:17] <Fryguy--> shade1: i didn't ask for a line, i asked for the whole output
[02:17] <macrobad> daggerx: it means that everything should work. Specifically, it tells us that a network called "uriah" is found in the area, the signal is pretty good, and it is protected with WPA1/WPA2
[02:17] <Fryguy--> shade1: but ok
[02:17] <beautifulsnow> Audacity is a music editor, not  player :/ can't make playlist. Risk overriting my files.. its not odd request, Im a singer.. thats why I was wondering ^^ I use it a lot in Windows, winamp, WMP, Best Practice.......

[02:18] <daggerx> that my network - ill go give it a shot and come back in a few
[02:18] <tovella> I want to install Ubuntu on a computer to ship to my sister.  She's never used Linux, but I can help her via phone and internet.  The only concern I have is for x-ferring her Documents and settings from her old Windows box to the (slightly less old) Ubuntu box.  Is there a way to make the Migration Assistant work via a LAN?  Any other suggestions?
[02:18] <macrobad> daggerx: kk
[02:18] <daggerx> thanks much for the files and stuff
[02:18] <shade1> Fryguy--: well, I could type the rest of it out if you like
[02:18]  * chalcedony smiles
[02:18] <daggerx> be back in a jiff
[02:18] <macrobad> daggerx: btw, if it won't work you should try
[02:18] <daggerx> ?
[02:18] <FAJALOU> flannel:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/25826/
[02:18] <macrobad> daggerx: 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart'
[02:18] <shade1> macrobad: I tried, but it failed saying "no route to host"
[02:18] <beautifulsnow> gah....
[02:19] <daggerx> ah ok gotcha
[02:19] <allaun> hello everyone
[02:19] <macrobad> shade1: ? No seriously, how come it has no *route* to host??
[02:20] <aidy> hi
[02:20] <macrobad> shade1: Is it in the output of ' ip route' ?
[02:20] <aidy> where does the alsa-utils init script save the volume levels?
[02:20] <Fryguy--> shade1: what is the computer connected to via ethernet
[02:20] <shade1> macrobad: I don't know why it has no route, normally ping would say "destination host unreachable". I'll try ip route in a bit
[02:21] <m-c> tovella: good for you - good luck with that - sorry I cannot offer you a suggestion
[02:21] <Flannel> FAJALOU: I should be here, yes.
[02:21] <FAJALOU> ok thank you, just IM me if you need to leave, or stumble upon an amazing breakthrough ,and thank you soooo much
[02:21] <tovella> m-c: thanks anyway for replying.
[02:21] <chalcedony> I have a laptop, Compaq Armada 1700, running Gutsy, 7.10. It has a wireless card, 3COM OfficeConnect wireless, 3CRGPC10075 Recently the box froze as it has done before (maybe a heat problem) I let it cool and took out the battery and unplugged it. I restarted it and it refuses to see the lan. In System > Administration > network, Connections i have 'Wireless connection, roaming mode enabled' with a -
[02:21] <chalcedony> in the box on the left. Ideas?
[02:21] <shade1> Fryguy--: an 8 port switch. Two other Vista boxes are also connected to said switch, and a line to the linksys wrt54g router/gateway, which is connected to the cable modem, and some other computers
[02:22] <chalcedony> shade1: nice
[02:22] <Fryguy--> shade1: try changing ports on the switch
[02:22] <Fryguy--> shade1: i'm convinced this is a hardware/cable issue of some sort
[02:22] <Fryguy--> shade1: feel free to disagree with me if you'd like
[02:22] <macrobad> Fryguy: He has Ubuntu server connected to the LAN, and we have tried almost everything but couldn't get the connection working properly. Basically, there is a MAC-layer connectivity, and no firewalls whatsoever. I am suspecting routing/switch issue.
[02:22] <chalcedony> i just had to replace an 8 port switch with an intermittent problem.
[02:22] <Flannel> beautifulsnow: mixxx should do that.  Although its probably not the most ideal for your task (and I'm sure theres a better fit out there)
[02:22] <Fryguy--> macrobad: i've been watching him all day
[02:23] <victor__> kernel_ghost i built the latest v4l source, what should i do next
[02:23] <macrobad> Fryguy--: kk
[02:23] <beautifulsnow> Flannel :/ its so complicated. I just want a slider that lets me go -/+ pitch ,   i dont really want to mix music >.< haha its so though to find something so simple
[02:24] <beautifulsnow> but ill probably download that too and try it
[02:24] <|Zippo|> somebody having troubles with svn amsn?
[02:24] <kernel_ghost> victor__:  so u installed it
[02:24] <victor__> yes
[02:24] <kernel_ghost> victor__: did u reboot
[02:25] <victor__> i need to reboot first then ill be back
[02:25] <mike3454> anyone know how to make my graphics normal again without re-installing ,  they are slow
[02:25] <shade1> chalcedony: nice?
[02:25] <chalcedony> is there a link for enabling wifi in gutsy?
[02:25] <shade1> Fryguy--: ok, I'll try the port change
[02:26] <chalcedony> shade1: sounds like you've been all day on it.. i'll hold back on nice
[02:26] <macrobad> Fryguy--: shade1: Do you happen to have any routing daemons running there, e.g gated or routed?
[02:26] <macrobad> Fryguy--: sry. was meant for shade1
[02:26] <joshual_> hey folks I installed imagemagick package but i dont see anything new added to the graphics menu
[02:27] <mike3454> failsafe works fine ,  i removed compiz and everything i installed
[02:27] <Fryguy--> joshual_: it's a collection of command line tools
[02:27] <Fryguy--> joshual_: use dpkg -l to see what got installed
[02:27] <joshual_> ahh
[02:27] <mike3454> even installed flux box,  still lsow
[02:27] <shade1> chalcedony, yep, I've been on it all day. fortunately, I'm on break, so I have days to burn futzing with ubuntu ;)
[02:27] <joshual_> thx
[02:27] <chalcedony> shade1: glad for you, it's good stuff to know
[02:27] <m-c> mike3454: can you explain more of your environment??
[02:28] <loa_dude> yo ppl.  where has automatix gone too?  the old website goes somewhere else :-(
[02:28] <blibli> hola
[02:28] <shade1> macrobad: routing daemons? on the switch? no. It's a D-Link 8port nway switch. I don't think it has an ip address with which I could configure it.
[02:28] <macrobad> shade1: No, I mean routing daemons on the Ubuntu box.
[02:28] <reya276> Can anyone tell me how to check my logs for remote desktop viever
[02:28] <Drk_Guy> Hi!, how can i make the output of "zenity --file-selection" fill a variable for other programs to use?
[02:28] <chalcedony> is there some site i should look at for wifi on gutsy?
[02:29] <chalcedony> since everyone seems busy atm
[02:29] <mjj> hehe
[02:29] <macrobad> shade1: btw, check a console port on a switch.
its the newest ubuntu , i tryed to intall compiz then typed compiz --replace then everything buggered up. so i tried to remove it and its slower, but failsafe works
[02:29] <shade1> macrobad: ok then, no. not unless ubuntu server starts some. Or I installed the DNS server metamodule, and that causes problems.
[02:29] <rdz> hi all. when i suspend to ram, the led of the power button starts to breath (as on macs). is there way to control the led of this button directly?
[02:29] <scales138> hey all quick quick question i wanted to try a lighterweight desktop manager for ubuntu.  i was thinking like openbox.  anyone know if there is a wifi app for that desktop manager?  right now network manager handles it in gnome....
[02:30] <macrobad> shade1: I didn't need a DNS server, so I cannot say.
[02:30] <zblach> scales138: openbox is related to gnome, methinks
[02:31] <mike3454> like the graphics are crazy slow and glitchy
[02:31] <Guest57860> does anybody know how to spellcheck with kwrite?
[02:31] <shade1> macrobad: neither did I, but I didn't think it would cause any problems. If it does, then I'll uninstal it, and will have fulfilled my prophecy of the answer being annoyingly simple
[02:31] <FAJALOU> ok Flannel back
[02:31] <shade1> macrobad: there isn't a console port on the switch.
[02:31] <kwtm> mike3454: You're having trouble with compiz-fusion, too?  I had beryl installed with Feisty, and it worked like a charm.  Compiz-fusion is nowhere near as smooth.
[02:32] <Flannel> FAJALOU: You get a kernel panic for *both* Ubuntu and windows?
[02:32] <FAJALOU> kwtm #compiz helped me out with a problem with that.
[02:32] <FAJALOU> Flannel:  no only ubuntu, and recovery mode.
[02:32] <kwtm> FAJALOU: You mean #compiz-fusion?
[02:32] <macrobad> shade1: so, it must be an ummanaged one.
[02:32] <mike3454> kwtm yea I look for beryl in synaptic, and there is nothing
[02:32] <m-c> mike3454: please put it all in one line so everyone can read it
[02:32] <Averros> I've got what seem like a dumb question but does anyone know the lib package to install for gcc to be able to read logf functions from within code?
[02:32] <FAJALOU> hmmmm kwtm i guess, maybe #compiz redirects there for me or something...
[02:33] <shade1> macrobad: I guess so
[02:33] <LLMP> could someone explain this to me in easier words i am kind of confused on the directions
[02:33] <LLMP> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/25828/
[02:33] <Flannel> FAJALOU: So windows boots fine.  That's good.  Because if windows had a kernel panic, there'd be something terribly wrong.  What does the panic say exactly?
[02:33] <scales138> zblach: ok, but network manager won't work on it right?
[02:33] <chalcedony> scales138: this might talk about your problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=645611
[02:33] <zblach> i've not used ubuntu in a few years :)
[02:33] <victor__> Kernel_ghost in my dmesg output for the tv tuner i found "Error: firmware xc3028-v27.fw not found."
[02:33] <zblach> i'm here out of old habits
[02:33] <FAJALOU> Flannel:  Kernel panic -not syncing :VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[02:33] <kernel_ghost> victor__: thats a good thing really
[02:34] <kernel_ghost> victor__: u need the firmware and place it in /lib/firmware
[02:34] <Flannel> FAJALOU: Ah, much more helpful.  pastebin the output of `sudo blkid` please
[02:34] <mike3454> i installed compiz , then typed compiz replace then my graphics skowed down so i removed everything and its still glitchy and slow , then wehn i choose failsafe everything works properly
[02:34] <victor__> kernel_ghost: where do i find the firmware
[02:34] <macrobad> shade1: I've just checked with 'tasksel --task-packages dns-server' that it actually install bind and netbase packets only. So, no routing daemons.
[02:35] <FAJALOU> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25830/
[02:35] <joshual_> hmm trying to watch a .mov file with totem, says it cant find decoder, but i know that libquicktime is installed
[02:35] <Flannel> LLMP: alt-f2, `gksu "gedit ~/.mplayer/mplayerplugin-in.conf"`, hit enter.  Then paste that middle bit, then save/close and restart firefox
[02:35] <shade1> macrobad: so, no problems from dns metapackage?
[02:35] <macrobad> shade1: Nope.
[02:36] <victor__> kernel_ghost so where do i find the firmware?
[02:36] <macrobad> shade1: netbase package is installed anyway, and bind is irrelevant, because your problems are on IP level.
[02:36] <LLMP> it didnt work
[02:36] <LLMP> it says cant fun
[02:36] <kernel_ghost> victor__: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25831/
[02:36] <Flannel> FAJALOU: Also, mind pastebing the fstab from your harddrive?  (that is, the one on the HD youve mounted)
[02:37] <shade1> chalcedony: sorry, I don't know anything about wifi on gutsy. My entire experience with ubuntu has been spent in the past 24 hours trying to get regular ethernet to work ;)
[02:37] <chalcedony> i feel totally stupid but i need help to figure out what could be wrong with  Compaq Armada 1700, running Gutsy, 7.10. It has a wireless card, 3COM OfficeConnect wireless, 3CRGPC10075.. it was working fine but now it won't see the lan.
[02:37] <FAJALOU> flannel: how can i do that?
[02:37] <kernel_ghost> victor__:  that will give u the firmware file u want
[02:37] <scales138> chalcedony: thanks
[02:37] <FAJALOU> ooooooooo
[02:37] <FAJALOU> ok
[02:37] <victor__> thx kernel ghost
[02:37] <LLMP> cannot find it says
[02:37] <chalcedony> scales138: yw :)
[02:37] <chalcedony> shade1: you'll get there :)
[02:37] <shade1> macrobad: ok then, what are our other, rapidly diminishing options?
[02:37] <macrobad> shade1: you must be lucky to start from such an experience! :)
[02:37] <Flannel> LLMP: cannot find *what*
[02:38] <FAJALOU> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25832/
[02:38] <FAJALOU> flannel ^
[02:38] <macrobad> shade1: Uh, I cannot productively think anymore, it's already 04:38 here.
[02:38] <shade1> macrobad: very lucky, it just happens however that my luck happens to be of the generally bad kind
[02:38] <shade1> macrobad: wow. Sorry to keep you up so late
[02:38] <LLMP> command
[02:39] <mike3454> NOw im in failsafe and the graphcs are awesome
[02:39] <eboyjr> http://i31.tinypic.com/ne6ech.jpg <!-- Are those all the sound events I have!?!?! What about max/min-imize?
[02:39] <Flannel> FAJALOU: Hmm, well... this *looks* all pretty normal
[02:39] <shade1> macrobad: um, early, rather
[02:39] <FAJALOU> ya i know that ;)   unfortunately it is not acting normal...
[02:39] <shade1> macrobad: g'night!
[02:40] <FAJALOU> the UUID matches up and everything...
[02:40] <shade1> Fryguy--: what time is it over in your place?
[02:40] <rand0m> how come when i startup ubuntu into gnome, it automatically recgnizes & mounts my xp partition (with all my media and music on it).. but going into xfce, it doesn´t recognize it ?
[02:40] <Flannel> LLMP: Whatsays it cant?  When you do the run dialog? or after you restart? or what?
[02:40] <macrobad> shade1: You may try to bring there another computer and connect straight to it (don't forget to use a crossover cable then) so that you could either confirm or dismiss switches and routers issue.
[02:40] <Flannel> rand0m: because its a gnome utility that mounts it.
[02:40] <acp_> can anyone direct mo to a how-to, I would like to connect to the internet using my nokia E61 modem in hardy,tnx!
[02:40] <macrobad> shade1: Thanks, will do. A better luck to you! :D
[02:41] <mike3454> is xfce better then gnome ?
[02:41] <FAJALOU> Flannel: what about reinstalling the kernel from the livecd?
[02:41] <Flannel> FAJALOU: thats probably more work than reinstalling Ubuntu, to be honest (since your home is separate)
[02:41] <shade1> macrobad: thanks! Maybe I'll see you around tomorrow? I actually hope not, but one never can tell
[02:42] <victor__> kernel_ghost: running the script ./extract_xc3028.pl doesn't work
[02:42] <FAJALOU> hmmmmmmmm, what would that entail do you know?  because i really don't wanna reinstall :\
[02:42] <LLMP> Flannel: Could not open location 'file:///home/milan/%60gksu%20%22gedit%20~/.mplayer/mplayerplugin-in.conf%22%60'
[02:42] <macrobad> shade1: I might connect to irc from the Lab tomorrow. Well, unless I oversleep, it's gonna happen in 4 hours. :)) Anyway, I retreat.
[02:43] <kernel_ghost> victor__:  what happened
[02:43] <Flannel> LLMP: Alright, did you type it just as I said it?  You should remove the backticks (`)
[02:43] <AlphaXero> is there a way to upgrade or downgrade X.Org Server?
[02:43] <rand0m> rand0m, is there an xfce utility thatĺl mount it for me the same way ?
[02:43] <LLMP> Flannel didnt remove the backticks will do it again
[02:43] <victor__> kernel_ghost: ./extract_xc3028.pl: No such file or directory
[02:43] <eboyjr> `` are cool
[02:43] <AlphaXero> my X.Org.0.log says its prerelease
[02:44] <kernel_ghost> victor__:  its trying to find the downloaded zip file
[02:44] <LLMP> Flannel" a blank gedit pop up
[02:44] <rand0m> also, when i go Quit > Switch User, then change to Gnome in the Select Session part, it doesnt take me to gnome, it justtakes me back into my previous xfce session
[02:44] <kernel_ghost> victor__: edit the pl file if u have to
[02:44] <rand0m> even though the box is unchecked for save last session for whatever
[02:44] <Pici> AlphaXero: thats standard, just because Xorg doesnt support it, doesnt mean that we don't.
[02:44] <kernel_ghost> or just put the zip file in the same folder
[02:44] <Flannel> LLMP: Alright, you must've changed something else, but thats fine.  Do you already have that file? If so, open it, if not, paste that stuff and save it as that file
[02:45] <Flannel> !away > o_O-away
[02:45] <nilihanth> I have a sharing permissions question...How do I set up a user for access to my shared folder?
[02:45] <LLMP> ok
[02:45] <AlphaXero> ah ok thanks Pici. I only ask cause i'm getting random black screens when i'm doing everyday stuff
[02:45] <AlphaXero> and all i can do is his the reset button
[02:46] <LLMP> Flannel it says this Could not save the file /home/milan/~/.mplayer/mplayerplugin-in.conf.
[02:46] <shade1> Fryguy--: do you have any other ideas of what could be causing my ethernet problems? It's really weird what
[02:46] <shade1> Fryguy--: whoops
[02:47] <AlphaXero> i'm not sure what happened cause i didnt think ubuntu was as crashy when i installed it. must have been one of those "updates"
[02:47] <FAJALOU> flannel:  http://www.osnews.com/story/8472/A_quick_guide_for_repairing_your_kernel_from_a_live_CD  does this look like a good one?
[02:47] <r0xdrag0n> aciao
[02:47] <Flannel> LLMP: Just /home/milan/.mplayer/mplayerplugin-in.conf
[02:48] <LLMP> Flannel what do u mean
[02:48] <Flannel> LLMP: Wait.  Actually, close gedit, and then open it up nromally.  You *dont* want sudo
[02:48] <Flannel> LLMP: Close everything, don't save it.
[02:48] <victor__> kernel_ghost: the extract_xc3028.pl is nowhere to be found
[02:48] <shade1> Fryguy--: the symptoms are really weird: 1) I get incoming packets from other computers on the lan. 2) I can't ping any other computers, I get "Destination Host Unreachable" 3) I can't get dhcp, probably for the same reason, since I can't connect to the dhcp server. Actually, I don't think my nic is sending any packets out. tcpdump doesn't catch any. So, what could cause my nic to receive, but not send any packets? Thoughts?
[02:49] <LLMP> Flannel: ok than what do i do
[02:49] <Flannel> LLMP: then, alt-f2, gedit /home/milan/.mplayer/mplayerplugin-in.conf
[02:49] <kernel_ghost> victor__:  u did download the pl script didnt u
[02:49] <Flannel> LLMP: then paste the stuff and save it
[02:49] <victor__> kernel_ghost: i don't think it was in the zip file
[02:50] <gnome_> new install issue: sound is a little choppy with media players and embedded video. suggestions?
[02:50] <LLMP> Flannel: what know
[02:50] <kernel_ghost> victor__:
[02:50] <kernel_ghost> victor__: http://lists.zerezo.com/video4linux/msg20831.html
[02:50] <kernel_ghost> download the perl script attached to that post
[02:50] <Flannel> LLMP: Now restart firefox.
[02:50] <OSUKid7> what interface does vpnc use when it brings up a VPN connection? my connection is completing, but the only additional interface is a P-t-P tun0 interface
[02:51] <AlphaXero> sorry if anyone said anything to me. Xorg crashed on me again
[02:51] <LLMP> ok thanx
[02:51] <AlphaXero> i'm running 800x600 mode now
[02:52] <FAJALOU> flannel:  does that look good?
[02:53] <Flannel> FAJALOU: Just chroot, add another kernel in there, and then update-grub
[02:53] <AlphaXero> ok installing drivers again from hardware drivers util
[02:53] <Flannel> FAJALOU: update-grub takes care of the menu.lst
[02:53] <AlphaXero> lets see if this hunk o junk crashes again lol
[02:53] <FAJALOU> flannel:  just do that right now?
[02:53] <AlphaXero> brb reboot
[02:54] <Flannel> FAJALOU: Thats basically the ubuntu version of that howto
[02:54] <shade1> does anyone have any ideas on what could cause my ethernet card to receive packets (I can capture passing traffic via tcpdump) but not send packets? (when I ping, it says "destination host unreachable" and tcpdump doesn't catch any icmp packets)
[02:54] <ubunubi> !make
[02:54] <FAJALOU> but Flannel will that work, in the livecd, just do that now?
[02:55] <peterhd> I have an installation question.  I want to install 8.04 on a system currently running XP.  The system has two drives.  The XP drive, C, is dedicated to Windows.  The second drive is portioned, and I have available a 39g area (drive H:) on which I’d like to place Ubunut.  Can I tell the installer to use that Drive?  If not, please point me to a thread on how to complete a manual install. ...
