[09:23] <lilbit> what is the best barnone cd copying app out there for ubuntu?
[09:23] <SeanTater> blmartin777: okay -- make sure you spelled it perfectly, as flashplugin-nonfree

[09:24] <blmartin777> What does you repo list look like. Mine mus be wrong
[09:24] <jrib> lilbit: probably k3b
[09:24] <Warbo> FWO: Turn on DMA?
[09:24] <zenlunatic> how do you start gnome if you uninstalled gdm?
[09:24] <sireliah> will i get better performance if i install 686 instead of 386? im on a 1.8 pentium M
[09:25] <Warbo> zenlunatic: With an X server open, go into a console and do "DISPLAY=localhost:0 && gnome-session"
[09:25] <blmartin777> SeanTater: could you pastebin you repos?
[09:25] <FWO> warbo how do i do that?
[09:25] <lilbit> jrib, but I am running gnome, will it still work?
[09:25] <Warbo> FWO: Not sure really
[09:25] <Celestianpower> Warbo: Okay, I tried that and no, he still can't hear me, and I can't hear him
[09:25] <FWO> warbo haha okay
[09:25] <SeanTater> blmartin777: How about I tell you the important one, because mine is different and made for updated version of KDE and such
[09:25] <Warbo> How do you turn on DMA for DVD drives?
[09:25] <jrib> lilbit: yeah, it will just load the kde libs
[09:25] <blmartin777> ok
[09:26] <Warbo> Celestianpower: Make sure NOTHING is using the soundcard, no media players on pause or anything, killall esd then start Skype
[09:26] <SeanTater> One line should say: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse
[09:26] <Kinetico> how do i reinstall my cd drive?
[09:26] <SeanTater> blmartin777: One line should say: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse
[09:26] <boricua> !info flock
[09:26] <Celestianpower> Warbo: I have done
[09:26] <Celestianpower> Nothing else running at all
[09:26] <lilbit> jrib, ok, thanks
[09:26] <boricua> there is no flock version for ubuntu?
[09:26] <SeanTater> blmartin777: and the other: deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security main restricted
[09:27] <Celestianpower> Warbo: Except ChatZilla
[09:27] <Warbo> Celestianpower: Try starting then stopping esd with "esd &" then "killall esd" (sometimes works for me)
[09:27] <SVisor> There is no MC for ubuntu?
[09:27] <boricua> !info mc
[09:27] <ubotu> mc: (midnight commander - a powerful file manager), section universe/utils, is optional. Version: 1:4.6.1-1ubuntu2 (dapper), Packaged size: 2073 kB, Installed size: 5952 kB
[09:27] <Kinetico> my cd drive mounts the install and live version but nothing else
[09:27] <SeanTater> blmartin777: got it?
[09:28] <FWO> how do u turn dma on for a dvd drive
[09:28] <Warbo> Kinetico: Use lsmod to see the loaded modules, then rmmod the CDROM one and modprobe it. That has reinstalled it, but I doubt it will fix your problem
[09:28] <SeanTater> FWO: if you know how to do it with a hard drive, just replace /dev/hda with /dev/dvd
[09:28] <Kinetico> im new at this
[09:28] <Warbo> !dma
[09:28] <ubotu> Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[09:28] <wastrel> yay
[09:29] <FWO> seantater i have no idea what that means
[09:29] <clandestino> anyone knows anything about how /etc/auto.smb workds?
[09:29] <blmartin777> SeanTater: Thank I got it now
[09:29] <Bassetts> does anyone know why the tm symbol doesnt work in ubuntu?
[09:29] <SeanTater> ubotu tell FWO about dma
[09:29] <Warbo> Kinetico: I just told you how to "reinstall" your CDROM, but also said that this will probably not help. Reinstalling will reinstall. Actually fixing will solve the problem :)
[09:29] <lilbigman80> hi, maybe somebody in here has an idea. I just downloaded and installed the ubuntu 6.06 desktop version on a iBook g4. the installation went well but the system drops me a shell saying i do not have an root filesystem when booting. now i am using the live cd and can see /dev/hda but no /dev/hda[1-6]  with 5 as my root-partition. fdisk works fine on hda but there seem to be no mountable partitions... by the way i have a samsung hd (read
[09:29] <SVisor> ubotu: ty, will try to relook for it.
[09:29] <ubotu> SVisor: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:30] <Ng> nobody juggles geese. stupid bot ;)
[09:30] <Kinetico> how would i fix the problem Warbo
[09:30] <SeanTater> ubotu tell SVisor about bot
[09:30] <Kinetico> it mounts the ubuntu cd's fine
[09:30] <Celestianpower> Warbo: Tried that - no change
[09:30] <redguy> does anybody know why my ath0 wireless interface doesn't get it's config via DHCP on bootup, but it does get it when I run ifdown ath0 && ifup ath0 after booting? I have a auto ath0 stanza in my interfaces file. Maybe using wpa has something to do with it?
[09:30] <Kinetico> just nothing else
[09:30] <elknof3> hi everybody...  how can i check how many video i have assigned, and hom many is left for RAM??
[09:30] <Warbo> Kinetico: Are the CDs written by a CD Writer, or from Canonical?
[09:30] <Ng> redguy: could you paste your interfaces file to a pastebin?
[09:30] <SVisor> Heh did not notice it was a bot :-)
[09:30] <Kinetico> im not sure
[09:30] <redguy> Ng: sure
[09:30] <SeanTater> elknof3: "how many assigned", explain
[09:31] <Kinetico> dvd's burned cd's purchased it doesnt read anything
[09:31] <Kinetico> what could the problem be
[09:32] <elknof3> SeanTater, Kb... like how many MB to video and to RAM, since i have and internal chipset for video
[09:32] <Warbo> Kinetico: I was going to suggest that writable discs aren't showing up, but if you have tried regular discs as well then I don't know (BTW, have you tried mounting it manually? DOes it work or give an error?)
[09:32] <SeanTater> elknof3: The video card decides how much memory it gets, it should say on the box. Even if you could see it there would be nothing you could do about it
[09:32] <Kinetico> when i mount manually it says no media on disc
[09:32] <redguy> Ng: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16011
[09:32] <SeanTater> elknof3: with onboard, probably about 15 MB
[09:33] <SeanTater> elknof3: or less
[09:33] <lilbigman80> has anyone an idea why I only see /dev/hda but not my partitions e.g. /dev/hda[1-6]  with the 6.06 live cd (on an ibook)
[09:33] <Warbo> Celestianpower: I am at a bit of a loss then (although I suffer similar problems when I make a Flash animation in Moho, which hogs the sound, then I want to preview it with Flashplayer in Epiphany, which also hogs the sound. When I am creating a soundtrack in Audacity it becomes unbearable :))
[09:33] <Celestianpower> Warbo: Hmmph
[09:34] <Warbo> !esd
[09:34] <Celestianpower> Why would it just stop suddenly?
[09:34] <_absolution_> I'm looking for a program like itunes....where I can transfer my music from my Ipod to the comp
[09:34] <nny_>  does nayone know alot about software raid or know someone who does that wants to make some extra cash?
[09:34] <Warbo> !tell Celestianpower about esd
[09:34] <elknof3> SeanTater, when i configured it for 3Dacceleration i was able to decide the qtty for video, but im not sure if it works the same as win, cause in win, it takes from RAM, but not as sharing but as a totally apart resouce
[09:34] <redguy> Ng: the # on the first line didn't copy...
[09:34] <ardchoille> _absolution_: maybe gtkpod ?
[09:34] <Warbo> Celestianpower: maybe that will help?
[09:35] <AkumAPRIME> hey. ok, after install, the user name is not configured though, strangely, the pw is. what can I do?
[09:35] <affan> i all... i just installed XUbuntu but the Menu (applications as well as the right-click) disappeared. and the font size changed too
[09:35] <jenda-lappy> nny_, nice offer ;) but nope.. I'm a blank drive.
[09:35] <elknof3> SeanTater, or at least thats what i thoght
[09:35] <elknof3> thought
[09:35] <Slyboots> AkumAPRIME, it would have asked you for a username
[09:35] <SeanTater> elknof3: I'm not aware it;s possible for it to do that
[09:35] <tresoldi> trying again after 20min: I am trying to upgrade to (x)ubuntu 6.06, but I seem to have hit an already described HPA boot bug (https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/16610 -- its Ubuntu kernel bug #16610), could somebody kindly point to me to any resources?
[09:35] <AkumAPRIME> for the 3rd time, it didnt!!!
[09:35] <AkumAPRIME> idk wy
[09:36] <SeanTater> elknof3: even so, why do you need it?
[09:36] <Slyboots> Uh-huh..
[09:36] <AkumAPRIME>  but the fact is it didnt
[09:36] <Warbo> Does anyone know a WM-independant menu program for displaying a menu when right clicking on the desktop (like Fluxbox) since I have Nautilus disabled
[09:36] <Slyboots> How did you install it
[09:36] <AkumAPRIME> ubuntu dvd 6.06
[09:36] <AkumAPRIME> i386
[09:36] <mystamax> for those that use wireless, do you use the networkmanager package? My wireless works fine now, but I'm wondering if I should upgrade?
[09:36] <nny_> Warbo.. maybe something from xfce?
[09:36] <SeanTater> AkumAPRIME: md5sum it
[09:36] <lilbigman80> one last try: has anyone an idea why I only see /dev/hda but not my partitions e.g. /dev/hda[1-6]  with the 6.06 live cd (on an ibook). cause I can not install ubuntu...
[09:36] <MeGaQuArK> Does anyone know about a problem with missing TitleBars when using XGL??
[09:36] <AkumAPRIME> k
[09:37] <wastrel> i'm installing gstreamer stuff
[09:37] <redguy> Ng: any idea what might be wrong?
[09:37] <Warbo> nny_: Basically all I want is the menu, not something embedded into a background (because I have ChBg going) so will XFCE's desktop cover my root window (I'm guessing yes)
[09:37] <sireliah> how can i check to see if 3d acceleration is on?
[09:37] <ardchoille> sireliah: glxinfo | grep render
[09:37] <SeanTater> sireliah: what chipset (ati, nvidia, etc)
[09:37] <Polibio> hello
[09:38] <MonsieurBon> does anybody know gnormalize?
[09:38] <sireliah> its integrated 915
[09:38] <Warbo> MeGaQuArK: If you are using XGL alone then that may be common. If you are using Compiz in XGL then it shouldn't happen :)
[09:38] <nny_> Warbo yeah
[09:38] <elknof3> SeanTater, i'm trying to run epsxe (plastation emu) but it's been a challenge, cause i've been configured the video acceleration and all that stuff, but i just cant have the epsxe syncronized, like if i make the reolution too big, te sound gets slow and viceversa...
[09:38] <SeanTater> sireliah: do what ardchoille said
[09:38] <Polibio> how can I install smbmount in Ubuntu?
[09:38] <Slyboots> elknof3 what GFX card do you have?
[09:38] <Ng> redguy: just looking now...
[09:38] <SeanTater> elknof3: how many MB ram do you have?
[09:38] <sireliah> ok it says direct render is on. however i get unplayable fps in warcraft 3. it cannot be right
[09:38] <elknof3> integrated 915
[09:39] <Pandoheas> hello
[09:39] <nny_> Polibio aptitude or apt-get smbclient
[09:39] <elknof3> and 512 RAM
[09:39] <Slyboots> Ah, no diea then sorry :)
[09:39] <Pandoheas> help please
[09:39] <Warbo> MeGaQuArK: (in other words make sure that "compiz --replace -gnome-window-decorator" or similar is in your session startup)
[09:39] <Polibio> ok nny
[09:39] <Ng> redguy: looks ok to me. the only thing I can think of really is that somehow the wireless drivers aren't being loaded (or the card isn't finishing initialising) until after the network init script is called
[09:39] <Slyboots> sireliah, What about you.. what gfx card
[09:39] <elknof3> SeanTater, 915 integrated, 512 RAM
[09:39] <sireliah> slyboots i have intel 915
[09:39] <SeanTater> elknof3: okay -- integrated cards are not made for any big games or anything, they barely do word processing
[09:39] <Slyboots> Those are pretty rubish to be quiet honest
[09:39] <sireliah> however i can play warcraft 3 in winXXP with graphics all the way up!
[09:40] <FWO> seantater thanks dvds work perfect now
[09:40] <Ng> redguy: the only thing I can think of to suggest is to put ath_pci in /etc/modules, but I'm really not sure it'll make any difference. One other thing to check would be if oyu have network manager installed - that may be blatting the original state of the card
[09:40] <iiiears> sireliah - Cedega? the test a[pp says direct rendering isn't configured correctly. - Wish i knew what to do about it.
[09:40] <SeanTater> FWO: glad to be helpful
[09:40] <FWO> warbo ill let u know later how divx works
[09:40] <FWO> gott a find the disk
[09:40] <Polibio> how can I copy network windows directories into linux partitions preserving the files timestamps?
[09:40] <sireliah> iiiears yes i am using cedega. i dont understand your statement. are you saying its cedega's fault? does this happen to you too? is it just warcraft 3?
[09:40] <Slyboots> I didnet know Warcraft 3 was on Gentoo..
[09:40] <elknof3> SeanTater, when in win i was able to run splinter cell, counter strike, and games a little bit weighted...  so i thought i could do the same with epsxe....
[09:40] <SeanTater> elknof3: I do not see how that is possible -- but from here I;m not that much help anyway
[09:40] <Warbo> sireliah: It really depends on how the card was designed. Many older cards have fantastic DirectX performance, but no support for OpenGL acceleration
[09:41] <Slyboots> Uh.. Linux sorry
[09:41] <sireliah> btw i passed all the tests on cedega
[09:41] <SeanTater> elknof3: keep asking around
[09:41] <elknof3> SeanTater, yeah thanks a lot anyway...
[09:41] <iiiears> sireliah: Cedega complains direct rendering isn't configured. - It looks liike DRI is enabled in Ubuntu.
[09:41] <sireliah> i KNOW my graphics card is capable, ive heard of ppl getting 90fps with quake 3
[09:41] <SeanTater> elknof3: sometimes #ubuntu-offtopiv can be helpful too
[09:41] <SeanTater> elknof3: sometimes #ubuntu-offtopic can be helpful too
[09:41] <sireliah> iiears my cedega says i passed all its 3d tests
[09:42] <wastrel> mmm sound-juicer crashes
[09:42] <BCK> wastrel
[09:42] <ic56> Polibio: you wanna copy a single file, all the files in a single directory, or a tree containing many nested directories?
[09:42] <wastrel> yes my good fellow?
[09:42] <Polibio> ic56, many nested directories
[09:42] <Warbo> wastrel: Was that a Homer Simpson impression?
[09:42] <iiiears> wasterl - CDEX with WINE. - sigh.
[09:42] <BCK> what encoder do you use with sound juicer ?
[09:43] <wastrel> Warbo:  no (confused)
[09:43] <FWO> what is wine
[09:43] <jabra_> what version of php is included in the dapper lamp install
[09:43] <Warbo> wastrel: mmmmmm... confused

[09:43] <FWO> i have xine

[09:43] <BCK> hmm
[09:43] <ic56> Polibio: cp -Rp <pathname to root of source tree> <pathname of destination root>
[09:43] <BCK> i have mp3 support
[09:43] <BCK> but its encoding albums at 600+ mb a time
[09:43] <BCK> whats wiki url ?
[09:44] <Warbo> FWO: WINE lets a lot of crappy windows programs run on x86 Linux and (I think) FreeBSD
[09:44] <wastrel> ah i had another instance of sound-juicer running in anothre workspace
[09:44] <Polibio> ic56,  I have tried that but Ubuntu does not recognise a source path that is like this: smb://servidor-d7cbfa/
[09:44] <wastrel> that's probably worth a bug report.
[09:44] <FWO> warbo ohh thanks just heard talk of it and was curius

[09:44] <Definity> hi i just got a wireless card with atheros chipset and i cant seam to get iwlist to work or connect to any ap's
[09:45] <Definity> well iwlist scanning
[09:45] <ic56> Polibio: how do you normally access the files, to view them, on the command line?  What path do you use?
[09:45] <redguy_> Ng: sorry, got disconnected
[09:45] <FWO> alright im off to clean my room and hopefully find my movie
[09:46] <Ng> redguy: looks ok to me. the only thing I can think of really is that somehow the wireless drivers aren't being loaded (or the card isn't finishing initialising) until after the network init script is called
[09:46] <Ng> redguy: the only thing I can think of to suggest is to put ath_pci in /etc/modules, but I'm really not sure it'll make any difference. One other thing to check would be if oyu have network manager installed - that may be blatting the original state of the card
[09:46] <AkumAPRIME> the ubuntu boot disk has a built in cd error checker. does it just run a md5sm check?
[09:46] <Polibio> I see them on nautilus, the path is something like  smb://servidor-d7cbfa/jj  but, when I copy the nested directories, the timestamps are modified
[09:46] <BCK> ok ic56
[09:46] <Polibio> ic56,  I see them on nautilus, the path is something like  smb://servidor-d7cbfa/jj  but, when I copy the nested directories, the timestamps are modified
[09:47] <redguy_> Ng: network-manager is not installed
[09:47] <mrkoje> can anyone remember what the package is for selecting through a bunch of ubuntu themes and wallpapers?
[09:47] <laurens_s> Hello, I have a small question. Can you boot the live cd, and somehow tell it not to use the (already existing) swap partition on the harddrive?
[09:47] <redguy_> Ng: will try to put ath_pci in modules as you suggest
[09:47] <Polibio> ic56, when I copy them graphically, I mean
[09:47] <laurens_s> I'm trying to repartition the disk, and that's kinda hard with the swappartition mounted :)
[09:47] <gnomefreak> mrkoje: gnome-art
[09:47] <redguy_> Ng: the odd thing is that once in a while the iface gets it's config properly
[09:48] <mrkoje> gnomefreak, thanks
[09:48] <gnomefreak> yw\
[09:48] <AkumAPRIME> the ubuntu boot disk has a built in cd error checker. does it just run a md5sm check?
[09:48] <wastrel> laurens_s:  you can probably tell grub not to do that, or just use swapoff on the command line after you boot mebby
[09:48] <affan> Hi all, how do i fire the terminal program in Xubuntu using the Run Command... dialog? I have lost the menu. thanks
[09:48] <jrib> laurens_s: swapoff -a
[09:48] <laurens_s> Gnopme partition editor hangs if I disable the swap partition from the interface
[09:48] <IsaacKlinger> Hi, I'm using ml-sensors and fanconfig, but I can't change the speed of my fan.
[09:48] <redguy_> Ng: I was also thinking of deferring the dhclient, perhaps by putting a pre-up sleep 10 line in the interfaces files
[09:48] <laurens_s> jrib: so open a terminal , enter swapoff -a should do the trick? I'll try!
[09:48] <billybennett> Hey guys I lost my sound in Flash Videos... any idea why?
[09:49] <laurens_s> thanks so far :)
[09:49] <IsaacKlinger> I'm using a Gigabyte K8NS Pro 939 motherboard.
[09:49] <Ng> redguy_: it's not ideal, but that would be an interesting test
[09:49] <jrib> laurens_s: yeah, i think that worked for me
[09:49] <Draconicus> I've installed xubuntu-desktop. In XFCE, there is no background or desktop of any kind. Does anyone have an idea as to what could be wrong?
[09:49] <Definity> hi i just got a wireless card with atheros chipset and i cant seam to get "iwlist scanning" to work or connect to any ap's
[09:49] <IsaacKlinger> It detects the sensors and the fans just fine, but I can't control the speed of the fan.
[09:49] <reclusivemonkey> billybennett: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=199289
[09:49] <pikolo> how can I upgrade from hoary to breezy?
[09:49] <pikolo> or 6.06
[09:49] <pikolo> ?
[09:50] <jrib> ubotu: tell pikolo about upgrade
[09:50] <ic56> Polibio: cp works on things accessible through the filesystem.  For that matter, most unix tools work that way.  Nautilus is letting you access network filesystems without mounting them.  Ask in the channel how to mount an SMB share in Ubuntu.  Once that's done, then you can use the command I gave you.
[09:50] <laurens_s> jrib: booting now, will keep y'all posted.

[09:51] <laurens_s> @

[09:51] <zipper> for some reason, all my keys works fine, except "Alt Gr"
[09:52] <zipper> but it's xgl related
[09:52] <CurtisB> ubotu: tell CurtisB about upgrade
[09:52] <ic56> Polibio: on the other hand, maybe Nautilus can be told to preserve filestamps -- Try going through its menus to see if there's anything useful.  That's the problem with GUIs: in order to stay simple, they provide few options.
[09:52] <billybennett> reclusivemonkey, I'll brb
[09:52] <zipper> so not really a question for this channel
[09:52] <Sapholin> Good afternoon #ubuntu
[09:52] <reclusivemonkey> does anyone here use OGMRip?
[09:52] <Bassetts> does anyone know why the tm symbol doesnt work in ubuntu?
[09:53] <Polibio> ic56, I tried the GUI of nautilus but didn't find anything about preserving timestamps :(
[09:53] <CurtisB> 'ello Sapholin
[09:53] <ic56> Polibio: bummer.  good luck.
[09:53] <Sapholin> Maybe one of you could help me with an issue. It seems that my audio is delayed by about a second or two in some applications
[09:54] <Sapholin> the sound is onboard, nvidia nforce
[09:54] <Sapholin> nforce 2, pardon
[09:54] <Draconicus> Nice job, guys. Somebody wanted to know how to upgrade, and not a single person bothered to do !upgrade. I wasn't in the room.
[09:54] <affan> Does anybody know what is the name of the terminal program in Xubuntu? Thanks
[09:54] <CurtisB> Sapholin - what are some cases where you get delay (warning, I'm no expert)
[09:54] <Noeve> Evening. I'm running Ubuntu on an Acer 1692 WLMi, but it won't detect the DHCP and I can't get the internet to work no matter what I do. Do you have any ideas ?
[09:55] <compengi> does ubuntu has supports multi-language
[09:55] <laurens_s> noeve: are the drivers loaded?
[09:55] <MarcN> affan: xterm
[09:55] <eugman> compengi, yes. What language do you speak?
[09:55] <Noeve> laurens_s, seems so, yes.
[09:55] <Sapholin> I particularily notice it in games, but let's say, in DROD, or Darwinia, there's a short delay from when the sound should play, and when it actually does
[09:55] <Draconicus> xubuntu-desktop lacks a desktop. What gives?
[09:55] <abhijeet> can anybody suggest a good java ide for linux
[09:55] <iiiears> Change - Nautilus - To show URL path instead of block named path?
[09:55] <MarcN> affan: which is code that may be older than you are ;-)
[09:55] <laurens_s> noeve: any weird messages from dmesg?
[09:55] <affan> thanks MarcN
[09:55] <wastrel> bye folks <3
[09:55] <Noeve> laurens_s, the card is detected fine, but it just won't recognise that I'm connected to a network.
[09:55] <compengi> arabic
[09:55] <meand1> I am trying to install Opera 8.5 and get this message: dependency is not satisfiable: xlib6g|xlibs. Any ideas?
[09:56] <Noeve> laurens_s, I don't think so, but not being a top Linux geek, I'm unsure. A friend checked, he said dmesg looked fine.
[09:56] <laurens_s> noeve: Does it detect the networkcable? Or is it wireless?
[09:56] <abhijeet> can anybody suggest a good java ide for linux
[09:56] <affan> MarcN: i missed it after moving from my Gentoo to Xubuntu
[09:56] <CurtisB> Sapholin - is this new since upgrading to Dapper? (or, what version are you running anyway?)
[09:56] <Definity> hi i just got a wireless card with atheros chipset and i cant seam to get "iwlist scanning" to work or connect to any ap's?
[09:56] <richee> hi
[09:56] <eugman> compengi, Give me a moment to check if there is a support channel in arabic.
[09:56] <laurens_s> abhijeet: try eclypse
[09:56] <billybennett> reclusivemonkey, I did what the page said but still no sound for flash
[09:56] <Lisoe> uhm ... how do you remove directories in a terminal?
[09:57] <Noeve> laurens_s, it's a cable. It tried detecting the connection during install and failed, so I told it I'd install it later. Still won't work.
[09:57] <Sapholin> CurtisB: Dapper Drake 6.06, and I've just switched from Windows to Ubuntu
[09:57] <reclusivemonkey> billybennett: does the rest of your sound work?
[09:57] <Sapholin> A new convert so to speak
[09:57] <compengi> lol eugman
[09:57] <billybennett> yeah
[09:57] <meand1> should I suspect Opera or ubuntu?
[09:57] <laurens_s> noeve: have you checked on launchpad if it's a known problem?
[09:57] <reclusivemonkey> billybennett: did you close all instances of firefox?
[09:57] <Noeve> laurens_s, no, could you point me to it ?
[09:57] <compengi> eugman i don't need a support i'm asking if i can type with arabic
[09:57] <billybennett> reclusivemonkey, I even restarted :P
[09:58] <Noeve> laurens_s, I've checked multiple forums over and over.
[09:58] <reclusivemonkey> billybennett: sorry then i can't help you any further
[09:58] <laurens_s> noeve: go to http://launchpad.org
[09:58] <eugman> Oh, wasn't sure which kind you meant. In that case I think so.
[09:58] <Lisoe> how do you remove directories in a terminal?
[09:58] <compengi> how can i know for sure
[09:58] <billybennett> thanks anyways reclusivemonkey
[09:58] <reclusivemonkey> does anyone here use OGMRip
[09:58] <laurens_s> noeve: sorry: launchpad.net
[09:58] <laurens_s> noeve: that's the official ubuntu bugtracker
[09:59] <eugman> There is deinfitely language support listed so I'd assume so.
[09:59] <CurtisB> Sapholin - I see Darwinia has a linux port, what about DROD, are you running it native or under WINE?
[09:59] <haploid> using dapper, having serious CUPS issue:  got the printer installed, the cupsd running, and a test page successfully printed.  however any attempt to use lp to print a ps file results in lp: Error - no default destination available.
[09:59] <CurtisB> Lisoe - rm -Rf <dir>
[09:59] <Noeve> laurens_s, thanks, I'll look.
[09:59] <Api984> hello
[09:59] <Lisoe> thanks
[09:59] <Definity> why?
[09:59] <Api984> i installed ubuntu
[09:59] <Sapholin> CurtisB: Both are running natively
[09:59] <Api984> where is MAKE???
[09:59] <afflux> so, der fnord macht sich jetzt auch mal in die heia
[09:59] <gnomefreak> Api984: build-essential
[09:59] <Api984> im trying to compile a new kernel and some other software
[09:59] <Chousuke> Api984: install the package build-essential
[10:00] <Api984> is it on CD
[10:00] <jrattner1> QUESTION:  Will native support for broadcom43xx (from kernel 2.6.17) be backported to dapper or will broadcom support not exist until edgy
[10:00] <gnomefreak> Api984: yes
[10:00] <AkumAPRIME> will running the built in cd checker be equivalent to runnun an md5sum check?
[10:00] <Sapholin> CurtisB: It only seems to affect some applications. Video Lan Classic, my media player, isn't effected, for example
[10:00] <reclusivemonkey> gnomefreak: I have installed build-essential but still can't compile OGMRip; can you help?
[10:00] <eugman> Anyone know how to map ctrl-alt-del to system monitor?
[10:00] <Api984> thanks
[10:00] <CurtisB> Sapholin - do they have a way to configure the sound device? I.e. do you know if they use ESD, or ALSA, or OSS?
[10:00] <Spec> jrattner1: i think the current kernel has native broadcom43xx support
[10:00] <gnomefreak> reclusivemonkey: what aprt are you stuck on?
[10:00] <Draconicus> xubuntu-desktop lacks a desktop. What gives?
[10:00] <laurens_s> noeve: it seems there are 2 bug reports on it
[10:00] <Spec> jrattner1: i mean, i use a broadcom43xx card without using ndiswrapper, so i suppose i'd call that native support
[10:00] <reclusivemonkey> eugman: its on the wiki here http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu_dapper
[10:00] <Sapholin> CurtisB: I do not think they have a means to change them, or if they do, I don't know of it
[10:01] <Noeve> laurens_s, I haven't found them yet, can I ask for the URL ?
[10:01] <jrattner1> Spec, yeh but i mean good support, not using BCMCUTTER to generate firmware
[10:01] <Spec> jrattner1: is the support in 2.6.17 better?
[10:01] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: xubuntu-desktop is a complete desktop enviornment
[10:01] <Spec> isn't it bcmfwcutter? :)
[10:01] <laurens_s> noeve: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs - I entered Acer 1692 WLMi in the searchfield
[10:01] <jrattner1> QUESTION: What wireless card for laptop would everyone recomend? (That will work FLAWLESSLY) with linux
[10:01] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: Alright. I installed it. The desktop doesn't load with my XFCE session. Just the panels.
[10:01] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: what are you looking for to load?
[10:02] <CurtisB> Sapholin - hrm, because about all I know enough to suggest is if you could change from say ESD to ALSA that maybe that'd solve the problem... Sorry, I'm out of ideas... Can anyone else help to explain or help fix a delayed-sound problem for Sapholin
[10:02] <AkumAPRIME> will running the built in cd checker be equivalent to running an md5sum check?
[10:02] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: the menu should be in upper left corner
[10:02] <reclusivemonkey> gnomefreak: not sure what you mean by that. I want to install OGMRip, so I installed build essential, and tried to compile, but it complains about glib and gobject which I have installed
[10:02] <jrattner1> Spec, extremely, its autodetected / set up
[10:02] <crimsun> reclusivemonkey: but do you have libglib2.0-dev installed?
[10:02] <gnomefreak> reclusivemonkey: grab the -dev libs for them
[10:02] <reclusivemonkey> crimsun: thanks, I will try that
[10:03] <roler> Is there such an app for x windows that will read a windows content, such as an image, and then process it into text? Like OCR or whatever it is called for scanning?
[10:03] <Sapholin> CurtisB: Thanks for your help so far CurtisB, it's at least been of some aid.
[10:03] <gnomefreak> reclusivemonkey: to build/compile you need the devleopment libs with the normal libs
[10:03] <Spec> jrattner1: i shall try to compile that kernel later tonight on my laptop :o)
[10:03] <Polibio> I am triyng to install a samba share to copy files from a windows PC preserving filestamps, but the command smbmount does not work, how can I install it?
[10:03] <jrattner1> Spec, im just hoping it gets backported
[10:03] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: I have to remove the menu and rely on F12 to right click. You see, I'm setting up this old iMac for use by my great grandmother, and I need to have a desktop, not only for a background image, but for a way to access the main menu.
[10:03] <gnomefreak> jrattner1: what?
[10:04] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: right click should give you menu
[10:04] <laurens_s> noeve: have you found them yet?
[10:04] <jrattner1> gnomefreak, kernel 2.6.17's broadcom support, (not t he whole kernel) cause as I understand thats impossible
[10:04] <billybennett> Does anyone know how I can get sound working again in Flash?  It was working yesterday but I was dumb and followed a guide on how to fix firefox icons.. and well I lost my Firefox but I got it back now
[10:04] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: That's only if the desktop is running. There is no desktop, and therefor right clicking does nothing.
[10:04] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: if you have the 2 panels you should have menu in upper left
[10:04] <Noeve> laurens_s, they seem to be unrelated. The first one is regarding Debian, the second is a boot problem.
[10:04] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: reinstall it
[10:04] <SonicChao> I was just testing Ubuntu via LiveCD, but cannot figure out how to connect to the internet. can someone help a complete linux noob?
[10:04] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: I REMOVED the menu because it would be too complicated for my great grandmother to use.
[10:04] <Noeve> laurens_s, the Debian one might be interesting, I'll try it.

[10:04] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java and see also !javadebs
[10:04] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: How do you reinstall a virtual package?
[10:05] <gnomefreak> jrattner1: i dont forsee the kernel being backported
[10:05] <jrattner1> gnomefreak, any chances of seeing it?
[10:05] <mrDaniel> got a problem with linux+acpi: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=199929
[10:05] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: It won't reinstall the dependencies.
[10:05] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: sudo apt-get install --reinstall xubuntu-desktop
[10:05] <jrattner1> gnomefreak, not the kernel, but the broadcom support from it
[10:05] <Ronz> !javadeb
[10:05] <ubotu> In Breezy: j2re1.4 is in multiverse. In Dapper: sun-java5-jre is in multiverse
[10:05] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: --reinstall will include all dependencies?
[10:05] <laurens_s> jrib: I disabled the swap, but unfortunately gparted still hangs when I try to start it if there's no swap memory
[10:05] <gnomefreak> jrattner1: i dount it  to be honest but way too soon to tell
[10:05] <laurens_s> noeve: ok, good luck!
[10:05] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: yes
[10:05] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: Oh. Good to know. Thanks.
[10:06] <Noeve> Thanks laurens_s. I'll be back in a sec if it doesn't work :P
[10:06] <gnomefreak> doubt it even
[10:06] <laurens_s> Noeve: hope it helps :)
[10:06] <Ronz> how do i add multiverse in dapper drake?
[10:06] <gnomefreak> jrattner1: give it time it hasnt been released to apt yet even for edgy

[10:08] <amarokker> Hi, all- again :)
[10:08] <jrib> laurens_s: hmm if gparted isn't starting at all, I'm not sure what would do that
[10:09] <jrib> laurens_s: see fi there is any output in a terminal
[10:09] <amarokker> is there anyway to get access to a memory card on a sony ericsson w810i
[10:09] <SonicChao> Can someone help me connect to the internet  via wireless?
[10:09] <amarokker> I can already see the fat32 storage area of the phone-memory- problem is with the memory card- any help?
[10:10] <laurens_s> jrib: the system hangs, but I'll try to boot and start it from a terminal instead of the menu :)
[10:10] <AkumAPRIME> ok, what does oem stand for? is it simply the gui installer?
[10:10] <iiiears> jrib - mounted drives. - unmount them. - (unmounted all target drives before starting? - crosses fingers))
[10:10] <protocol2> SonicChao, have you got network-manager?
[10:11] <AkumAPRIME> because the text installer lets me create a user name(thank gods)
[10:11] <SonicChao> protocol2: Just tell me where to find everything, I just starting using Ubuntu
[10:11] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: Not only did that not fix the problem, but apt-get install --reinstall xubuntu-desktop shows only one package being reinstalled and 0 bytes being used even when I removed all of the original package files, rather than showing the 15+ dependencies. Any ideas?
[10:11] <SonicChao> protocol2: I am pretty sure my computer supports it
[10:11] <protocol2> you can find network-manager in synaptic
[10:11] <jastafa> anyone else having problem installing java and flash with ubuntu?
[10:11] <protocol2> just download it
[10:11] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: it should xubuntu-desktop is a meta package
[10:11] <zxc> How can I make it that Windows automatically boots from grub after 15 seconds
[10:11] <billybennett> Can someone help me figure out why I have no sound in Flash?  Ive changed my DSP from none to AOSS and still nothing.....
[10:11] <protocol2> that should help you with your wireless
[10:12] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: it isnt a package itself it just holds packages in it
[10:12] <iiiears> jastafa - Was the mozcontrol included somewhere?
[10:12] <SonicChao> protocol2: But how do i get to it if i cant connect to the internet?
[10:12] <jastafa> what is that?
[10:12] <reclusivemonkey> gnomefreak: crimsun thanks for the pointers, I found some more deps that I installed, but still can't get OGMRip to compile. It configures without error now, but I get ogmrip-backend.c:1440: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of 'ogmrip_codec_get_chapters' differ in signedness

[10:12] <Eleaf> Is there any use for Ageia's PhysX card in linux yet?
[10:12] <AkumAPRIME> all
[10:12] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: I know about meta packages, to a degree. Shouldn't it show the number of packages within the meta package, rather than just one, though?
[10:13] <Polibio> ic56, it works! many thanks!
[10:13] <gnomefreak> reclusivemonkey: take a look at the readme and install files it should give you list of things you need
[10:13] <iiiears> jastafa - Synaptic will tell you if it is installed.
[10:13] <ic56> Polibio: yw!
[10:13] <nickrud> SonicChao, do you have acces to a linux machine that's on the net? if so, synaptic will write a script you can use to downloaded the needed files
[10:13] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: no
[10:13] <protocol2> can you at least plug your station into a lan line temporarly to get the package?
[10:13] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: Alright...
[10:13] <laurens_s> eleaf: there's hardly any use for it under windows :)
[10:13] <SonicChao> protocol2: No access to a linux machine on the net
[10:13] <Eleaf> laurens_s, pffts
[10:13] <reclusivemonkey> gnomefreak: yeah I used to install this no problem on Slackware, I have mencoder, all the OGM/vorbis stuff. ./configure completes with no errors too?
[10:13] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: Why are 0 bytes used and no packages downloaded even after I did an apt-get clean?
[10:14] <protocol2> SonicChao, maybe you can get the program burned onto a cd?
[10:14] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: Even after apt-get clean and apt-get install --reinstall xubuntu-desktop, there is no change in the problem.
[10:14] <SonicChao> protocol2: It must be possible to do it from ubuntu, is there something listed in applications?
[10:14] <SonicChao> Or something to put in a terminal?
[10:15] <bert> Can someone tell me what 'new in repository' means? Does this imply packages I need to install because they are an addition to packages allready installed?
[10:15] <ilpum> n00b question
[10:15] <ilpum> how do i install a .deb-file?
[10:15] <SonicChao> protocol2: Should I install ubuntu?
[10:15] <jrib> !deb
[10:15] <billybennett> Can someone please help me figure out why I have no sound in Flash today?
[10:15] <reclusivemonkey> ilpum: just double click it, it should install
[10:15] <nickrud> bert, they're simply new programs added to the repos
[10:15] <RabidSnail> ilpum:Are you running dapper?
[10:15] <gnomefreak> Draconicus: im not sure than i would try using debfoster (iirc) to remove xubuntu-desktop and all its depends and try again thats not normal
[10:15] <jrib> ubotu: tell ilpum about deb
[10:15] <zxc> How can I make Windows boot by default from Grub?
[10:16] <protocol2> SonicChao, if your station temporarliy had net access with a direct ethernet connection you could do this "sudo apt-get install network-manger"
[10:16] <gnomefreak> damn forgot what i was working on :(
[10:16] <SonicChao> protocol2: No access
[10:16] <jrib> zxc: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and set the default to the number corresponding to windows (it starts at 0)
[10:16] <bert> nickrud: thnx. I just asked because I have no sound from my headphones and found an alsa-jack in the new in repository section...so I was just wondering if that would help
[10:16] <SonicChao> protocol2: I boot ubuntufrom liveCD and i dont get a connection of know where to find one
[10:16] <ilpum> Ah that's right, dpkg! THX
[10:16] <Draconicus> gnomefreak: Alright..
[10:16] <affan> wat is the difference between apt-get update and apt-get upgrade? i want to install latest dapper-updates...
[10:16] <protocol2> SonicChao, you might want to ask someone else on how to do that
[10:17] <protocol2> im a newb myself
[10:17] <gnomefreak> oh yeah
[10:17] <gnomefreak> ty brb
[10:17] <nickrud> bert, no, jack is a different sound server. I can see why it grabbed your eye, thoug

[10:17] <kdean06> I'm running a sendmail server, and for some reason, it it dropping the first character of the contents of /var/spool/mail/<user>. Since it doesn't know hwo e-mails are FROM it causes a lot of fuss and breaks. Does anyone have any clue as to WHY this would happen.
[10:17] <gnomefreak> SonicChao: whats up
[10:18] <jrib> zxc: do you see the line that starts 'default' and then has a number?
[10:18] <iiiears> SonicChao - sudo  ifup eth0   ??  to bring an installed configured nic to life?

[10:18] <gnomefreak> billybennett: its a known issue please look at launchpad.net for the bug
[10:18] <jrib> zxc: ok that 0 means that whatever is first on your list, will get booted.  Do you know what line windows is on in your list?
[10:18] <gnomefreak> SonicChao: nope thats iiiears department ;)
[10:19] <SonicChao> iiiears: can you help me?

[10:19] <nasso> does anyone know how i can change my screen resolution in a terminal?
[10:19] <jrib> zxc: ok, so you would put a 5 there.  Since 0 is for the first line, 1 for the second, so on

[10:23] <nickrud> Draconicus, you still trying to reinstall xubuntu-dependencies?
[10:23] <jrib> reclusivemonkey: are you sure it can't be something else?
[10:23] <Draconicus> nickrud: Yeah.
[10:23] <scompa> I need help! I just downloaded ubunut 6.06. I boot it and when I try to install it (double click on Install icon) installatin window appear but it wan't do anything else, computer becomes extermly slov! Can someon help?!
[10:23] <reclusivemonkey> jrib: not sure i follow you
[10:23] <nickrud> Draconicus, I could walk you thru the interactive aptitude method
[10:23] <Draconicus> nickrud: I'm not entirely helpless, but alright.
[10:24] <jrib> reclusivemonkey: I mean, are you sure it doesn't fail to compile for a different reason than that warning
[10:24] <erUSUL> reclusivemonkey: please use pastebin
[10:24] <billybennett> gnomefreak, I still am not sure what I should do.  It was working yesterday but I followed a guide to fix a darn icon and it gave me a different copy of firefox so I got rid of that and re-installed Ubuntu's Firefox
[10:24] <nickrud> Draconicus, it's a simple thing, start aptitude then find xubuntu-desktop, and hit enter
[10:24] <scompa> Anyone can halp with installation?!
[10:24] <reclusivemonkey> erUSUL: no idea what pastebin is
[10:24] <erUSUL> !anyone
[10:24] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? </hint>
[10:24] <scompa> yeaaa
[10:24] <haploid> is there any particular reason that ubuntu server requires the cdrom to apt-get install anything ?
[10:24] <erUSUL> !tell reclusivemonkey about pastebin
[10:24] <scompa> It worked in safe mode!
[10:25] <Draconicus> nickrud: Got it.
[10:25] <haploid> the server is 100 miles away, it would be nice not to have to drive over there to put in the ubuntu cd
[10:25] <jrib> haploid: it is probably in your /etc/apt/sources.list , just comment the line for the cd-rom
[10:25] <haploid> ok
[10:25] <erUSUL> haploid: the cd is still in the sources file.
[10:25] <nickrud> Draconicus, highlight the --\Depends line, just below Source Package
[10:25] <reclusivemonkey> jrib: ./configure completes without any errors. I've installed all the deps that are listed on the OGMRip site, and all the devs I can find. It compiled fine on Slackware, so I am lost on Ubuntu
[10:25] <CurtisB> I upgraded to Dapper, and the only real problem is that my Echo Mia (secondary sound-card) isn't working anymore.  When crimsun helped me with 5.10 I documented the process here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EchoMia and I've been trying to adapt that to Dapper, but it's not working out as smoothly as I'd hoped... I do think I correctly changed CC=gcc-4.0, and the drivers say they compiled okay, but they aren't installi
[10:25] <CurtisB> ng properly :(
[10:26] <jrib> reclusivemonkey: did it compile on slack with gcc 4 or gcc 3.4?
[10:26] <haploid> ah, xcellent, thanks :)
[10:26] <haploid> *excellent
[10:26] <nickrud> Draconicus, um, by that I mean arrow down to it
[10:26] <laurens_s> jrib: I tried to run gparted from the terminal, and it says it starts dumpe2fs, keeps on working some time after that, then hangs again :(. Thanks for your help, I'll continue some other time though.
[10:27] <reclusivemonkey> jrib: I was using 10.2, not sure what was installed by default. Knowing slack, gcc 3.4 ;-)
[10:27] <jrib> laurens_s: k gl
[10:27] <laurens_s> jrib: Thanks! Bye!
[10:27] <Draconicus> nickrud: Again, I'm not helpless. :P   I'm guessing I should mark them for removal? Should be fine as long as I stay out of X until they're reinstalled, don't you think?
[10:27] <jrib> reclusivemonkey: try installing gcc-3.4 with apt, doing 'export CC=gcc-3.4', and trying ./configure, make, ... again
[10:28] <nickrud> Draconicus, no, now hit shift L (reinstall) then g .
[10:28] <SonicChao> Please help me set up the wifi card that came with my laptop. Iw dont even know how to figure out who made the wifi card...
[10:29] <jrib> reclusivemonkey: I have to go, but gl
[10:29] <erUSUL> SonicChao: lspci will tell you the odel of your card
[10:29] <nasso> is it possible to change the x screenresolution via a terminal?
[10:29] <erUSUL> model*
[10:30] <erUSUL> !tell nasso about fixress
[10:30] <iiiears> SonicChao - sudo lspci  will give you some info
[10:30] <reclusivemonkey> jrib: thanks for that dude, I was just looking on the slack site. I will try thanks for the help
[10:30] <Dial_tone> you don't really care who made it; you do care about what chipset it uses; which should appear in dmesg
[10:30] <erUSUL> !tell nasso about fixres
[10:30] <nickrud> Draconicus, inspect the list you see after the g , then if you are satisfied with the list, hit g again to go reinstall
[10:30] <Jalla^> Question: how do I make my ubuntu-server auto-connect and stay connected to a specific wireless access point with encryption?
[10:30] <nasso> erUSUL, thx
[10:30] <SonicChao> erUSUL: I CANT connect to the internet
[10:30] <erUSUL> nasso: no problem
[10:30] <Draconicus> nickrud: Yes, I've used aptitude before for small things. I've just never played with dependencies in it. Thanks for the help, though. :)
[10:30] <quiet> does anyone know if they are working to fix the 'snow' on the buttons for the Human theme???  Using the ATI driver here.. not sure if ti's driver specific.. but the review on distrowatch also reported the same problem..
[10:30] <erUSUL> SonicChao: lspci is a comand you can run in a terminal
[10:31] <scompa> Does anybody know how to install kernel 2.6.17 in Ubunu? Is there any tutorial or site?
[10:31] <SonicChao> ok
[10:31] <erUSUL> it will tell you what hardware is attached to de pci bus as wi-fi cards are
[10:31] <nickrud> Draconicus, aptitude is very powerful, but obscure. I printed the manual a couple of years ago and kept around for reference.
[10:31] <erUSUL> SonicChao: no need to shout...
[10:31] <Draconicus> nickrud: Yeah. It's a handy tool. I just use Synaptic out of convenience, but aptitude is very nice. I might consider working with it more in the future.
[10:31] <nasso> erUSUL, that didnt help me att all. i just want a simple command like "resolution 1024x768"
[10:32] <SonicChao> erUSUL: ok
[10:32] <nickrud> Draconicus, as best I can tell, synaptic can do all that aptitude can. I'm just used to the keystrokes
[10:32] <billybennett> gnomefreak, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/29760 fixed it
[10:32] <nasso> like i can do in system -> prefs -> screenresolution
[10:32] <nasso> but i want to do it in a terminal
[10:32] <scompa> How I can install new kernel in Ubuntu 6.06?
[10:32] <scompa> Please
[10:33] <Jalla^> I ask again. Anyone please help. How do I make my ubuntu-server auto-connect and stay connected to a specific wireless access point with encryption?
[10:33] <Draconicus> nickrud: Ah. :)
[10:33] <scompa> I need it to support my broadcom wi-fi card.
[10:33] <erUSUL> nasso: Crtl. + Alt. + '+' should change resolution... as Crtl. + Alt. + '-'
[10:33] <nasso> erUSUL, i want to use it in a script
[10:34] <scompa> How do I install new kernel?!
[10:34] <tiagoboldt> scompa: kernel.org
[10:34] <tiagoboldt> download the one you want and read the readme, it has got all explained
[10:35] <iiiears> scompa - there are some precompiled kernels available in synaptic.
[10:35] <orn> I have a Dell Latitude laptop, and fullscreen 3d applications, such as games, don't stretch, so they only occupy part of the screen. Anyone know how to fix that?

[10:35] <nasso> i won ;)
[10:35] <gnomefreak> billybennett: try restarting lol thats how they fixed it lol
[10:36] <billybennett> gnomefreak, I fixed it with https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/29760

[10:36] <gnomefreak> ok

[10:36] <gnomefreak> billybennett: yw
[10:36] <reclusivemonkey> no luck with GCC-3.4, I still can't get OGMRip to compile
[10:37] <scompa> Where I can gat synaptic and how do I install kernel with that?
[10:37] <tiagoboldt> scompa: synaptics is already installed with ubuntu
[10:37] <scompa> that good news :)
[10:37] <tiagoboldt> Menu System->administration->synaptics
[10:37] <scompa> Thank you
[10:38] <scompa> It's now on 56% of installation....
[10:38] <tiagoboldt> and you've got there lot's of things to install and uninstall to your system:)

[10:38] <Xaero_Vincent> 2.6.17 kernel is available via synaptic?
[10:39] <scompa> Where can I ga kernel that I can install with synaptic?
[10:39] <tiagoboldt> nop,just 2.6.15
[10:39] <green_earz> asad1: you can put its startup command in .xsession  file in your home dir
[10:39] <Jalla^> I ask again. Anyone please help. How do I make my ubuntu-server auto-connect and stay connected to a specific wireless access point with encryption?
[10:39] <tiagoboldt> scompa: use the search in synaptics
[10:39] <nickrud> reclusivemonkey, you've just gotta identify the dev package for each compile failure. grunt work.
[10:39] <neutrinomass> Xaero_Vincent: No. Features may be backported to 2.6.15 but 2.6.17 won't make it to the dapper repos ...
[10:39] <scompa> Ups... I need 2.5.17...
[10:39] <scompa> *2.6.17
[10:39] <Lobster> n8
[10:39] <nickrud> green_earz, no, for gnome it is ~/.gnomerc
[10:39] <reclusivemonkey> nickrud: Or go back to slack, where compiling apps is simple...
[10:39] <green_earz> ok
[10:40] <Xaero_Vincent> scompa.. try using Archlinux then... they use the latest kernel always
[10:40] <NoUse> !kernelcompile
[10:40] <ubotu> You will probably find info about this at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCompileHowto
[10:40] <nickrud> reclusivemonkey, I'd guess that would be because slack always comes with headers, since it's designed for compilling type dude/dudets
[10:40] <iiiears> lol nickrud.
[10:41] <neutrinomass> scompa: For the bcm driver support maybe?
[10:41] <reclusivemonkey> nickrud: Yeah, I guess. No mplayer/mencoder devs I can see. looking for oggenc now
[10:41] <nasso> does anyone know how i can kill gnome-panel and make sure it stays killed? with a command...
[10:41] <nasso> i dont want it to restart
[10:41] <scompa> yes
[10:41] <reclusivemonkey> no vorbis-tools dev either...
[10:42] <gnomefreak> nasso: kill -9 pid   i think will replace pid with the pid
[10:42] <gnomefreak> nasso: im fairly sure it will stay gone than but not positive
[10:42] <NoUse> nasso are you running gnome?
[10:42] <nickrud> nasso, to make sure it's dead, System-Prefs-Sessions, look for it in the current sessions tab, and change the style from restart to normal. Then kill
[10:42] <nasso> gnomefreak, it restarted
[10:42] <scompa> Yes, for broadcom wi-fi....
[10:42] <neutrinomass> scompa: Lots of people have been inquiring about this today here.... try opening a bug at launchpad against linux-source-2.6.15 and get people to confirm it ...
[10:43] <gnomefreak> nasso: sorry
[10:43] <nasso> NoUse, yes i am
[10:43] <tiagoboldt> nasso: gnome will restart it always, you've got to get a way to disable it
[10:43] <neutrinomass> scompa: Sorry, have to leave now ....
[10:43] <nasso> im looking for a way to excecute a command in a script that kills gnome-panel.. execute som other commands and then start it again
[10:44] <j1p> has anyone installed E17 on dapper yet?
[10:44] <DShepherd> hey
[10:44] <nasso> nickrud, will look into it, thx
[10:44] <asad1> hey you all, i am still having problems getting gdesklets to start up when my machine does, how do i edit select it on session manager correctly?
[10:44] <nickrud> nasso, you have a very odd script in mind ;)
[10:44] <tiagoboldt> rotfl
[10:45] <nickrud> asad1, add it to the startup programs tab of the sessions preference
[10:45] <tiagoboldt> nasso: can't you just restart it in the end?:s
[10:45] <Xaero_Vincent> scompa: I tried compiling my own kernel for Ubuntu but it only screwed things up the internet wasnt working, etc.. the ubuntu kernel has alot of modifications... so a vanilla one might be problematic.
[10:45] <tristanmike> asad1: I'm assuming you just add the command "gdesklets" to the "Startup Programs" tab
[10:45] <scompa> Do I need any toold that doesn't come with ubunut 6.06 to compile 2.6.17 kernel?
[10:45] <scompa> *tools
[10:45] <asad1> tristanmike, that's it. i feel silly. :(
[10:46] <nasso> nickrud, nah.. i want to change my screenresolution to use my tvout. if i lower my the screenres everything in the gnome-panel cant fit anymore and gets all mixed up. i have to rearrange it every time
[10:46] <tristanmike> asad1: you shouldn't :)
[10:46] <nasso> and i dont want a gnome-panel when i use tvout
[10:46] <MrRio_> scompa: build-essential and kernel-source-*
[10:46] <asad1> what about this silly question? is there a way to bring terminal up using a key command?
[10:46] <nickrud> nasso, ah. Yes, that is a very good reason to kill gnome panel
[10:46] <Xaero_Vincent> scompa: use ndiswrapper fir biw
[10:46] <Xaero_Vincent> for now*
[10:47] <reclusivemonkey> is there anywhere you can request programs be added to the ubuntu repositories?
[10:47] <zybrid> Is there an asterix/trixbox channel on freenode?
[10:47] <nasso> i want a script that changes screenres and sets tvout on and kills gnome-panel and i want another script that sets everything back to normal again
[10:47] <luxifer1979> hi
[10:48] <scompa> I used ndiswrapper for some time in slackware... Looks like I'll have to use it in Ubunut too, at least until 2.6.17 becomes available at synaptics...
[10:48] <DShepherd> my gnome buttons are being painted with weird colours <a href="http://s71.photobucket.com/albums/i141/DShepherd_photos/?">Screenshots.jpg</a> and <a href="http://s71.photobucket.com/albums/i141/DShepherd_photos/?">Screenshot-2.jpg</a> are screenshots. can anyone help me to rectifiy this problem
[10:48] <tristanmike> asad1: you could try "alt+f2" to bring up the run dialog and type "gnome-terminal" to bring it up
[10:48] <luxifer1979> where can I find a list of what comes with ubuntu amd64?
[10:48] <nasso> nickrud, the "restart -> normal" thing in sessions worked
[10:48] <nasso> thx
[10:48] <Xaero_Vincent> scompa: your new to linux but were using slackware?
[10:48] <asad1> thanks tristamike
[10:48] <crimsun> luxifer1979: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[10:48] <luxifer1979> thx! ;)
[10:49] <nickrud> nasso, yw. Long term, I'm thinking you may have to make provisions for gnome expecting gnome-panel to respawn, but you'll have to cross that bridge when it shows up
[10:49] <scompa> Xaero, yes, I used it for aobut 10 days :)
[10:50] <nasso> nickrud, well. it is easy to start up manually :)
[10:50] <iiiears> nickrud - Is there a solution in gconf-editor??
[10:51] <Xaero_Vincent> scompa: thats cool that a newbie can dive into a difficult to use distro like Slackware
[10:51] <luxifer1979> there is no flash plugin for firefox (running ubuntu amd64)?
[10:51] <crimsun> luxifer1979: nope.
[10:51] <tristanmike> !tell luxifer1979 about flash
[10:52] <nickrud> iiiears, none I know of
[10:52] <CurtisB> I upgraded to Dapper, which worked great except for breaking ALSA for my secondary audio-card... anyone around that knows ALSA issues?
[10:52] <SonicChao> IS it possible to connect to the internet with ubuntu with a Mini PCI Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG 802.11B/G (Titus) WLAN card???
[10:52] <nasso> how do i stop and wait for the user to press return in a script?
[10:52] <crimsun> CurtisB: pastebin ``cat /proc/asound/cards ~/.asoundrc* && amixer''
[10:53] <scompa> Thank you all people and bye, I will come later maybe....
[10:53] <Sgeo> !tell Sgeo about branding

[10:53] <SonicChao> rverrips: It doesnt connect
[10:53] <reclusivemonkey> is there anywhere you can request programs be added to the ubuntu repositories?

[11:03] <bsg> hi
[11:04] <ubu_new> I have only bash
[11:04] <DoctorMO> rverrips: I'm hoping it doesn't replace my sources because it's unsecure and always asks me to varify the packages
[11:04] <christos> My sound card is correctly detected, in alsamixer everything is up, but I can only hear sound from my headphones in very low volume. any help?
[11:04] <affan> ubu_new: try startx?
[11:04] <Some_Person> and why wont mms:// work in rhythmbox?
[11:04] <green_earz> Some_Person: because its built on debian
[11:04] <bsg> my ubuntu is getting bigger and bigger when I install updates, os there any way to clean the system from unused files?
[11:04] <ubu_new> affan, -bach: startx: command not found
[11:04] <rverrips> DoctorMo - I don't have nvidia and can't comment on that options (sorry) - Perhaps try without it and see.  You could also try automatix (similar to easyubuntu) http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=177646
[11:05] <eigenlambda> bsg: you need to look at deborphan
[11:05] <affan> did u install gdm/jmd etc?
[11:05] <Some_Person> how do i get mms:// working on rhythmbox?
[11:05] <rverrips> bsg: Try sudo apt-get clean
[11:05] <affan> kdm*
[11:05] <kismet> how can I use update-alternatives to set my prefered program by command line without user prompt?
[11:05] <bsg> ok
[11:05] <ubu_new> affan, any ideas
[11:05] <ubu_new> ?
[11:05] <eigenlambda> Need to get 62.0kB of archives.
[11:05] <eigenlambda> After unpacking 381kB of additional disk space will be used.
[11:05] <affan> ubu_new: have u installed gdm/kdm?
[11:05] <ubu_new> I have no idea
[11:05] <eigenlambda> my guess is
[11:06] <ubu_new> just did all the istallation
[11:06] <eigenlambda> ext3 *sucks*
[11:06] <eigenlambda> reiserfs >> ext3
[11:06] <nickrud> Some_Person, I don't think rhythmbox has provisions for mms, sadly
[11:06] <rverrips> eigenlamdba - why does ext3 suck?
[11:06] <bsg> thx
[11:06] <rverrips> bsg: you're welcome
[11:06] <eigenlambda> because every single-byte file takes up 4k
[11:06] <zquirm> If I'm using svn 1.3.1, should I be using the 1.3.x manual?
[11:06] <zquirm> the book v1.3
[11:06] <nickrud> zquirm, yes.
[11:06] <crimsun> CurtisB: I haven't used the Mia; does it require firmware to be uploaded? (I haven't read the referenced wiki page because I'm very busy at work)
[11:06] <eigenlambda> and then it wastes space for a pool of inodes as well
[11:07] <affan> !gdm
[11:07] <ubotu> affan: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:07] <crimsun> christos: pastebin the output from ``cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer''
[11:07] <nickrud> eigenlambda, is this relevant?
[11:07] <affan> ubu_new: have u tried upgrading dapper?
[11:07] <kismet> nevermind I've found the answer update-alternatives --set
[11:07] <ubu_new> affan, this is the server disk installtion
[11:07] <rverrips> eignlamda: I'm with nickrud, what is better than ext3?
[11:08] <CurtisB> crimsun - understood... well to get it working in 5.10 was onyl a matter of properly installing the ALSA snd-mia, but even though I tried re-compiling ALSA with CC=gcc-4.0 (and it seemed to compile okay) it's not letting me get the module installed, for some reason....
[11:08] <ubu_new> affan, how can I check that the installation is 100% ?
[11:08] <haploid> xfs > ext3
[11:08] <haploid> * > ext3
[11:08] <nickrud> rverrips, depends on the system environment. ext3 is a fine generalist
[11:08] <affan> ubu_new: oohhh.. .. .i know.. .wait a minute let me find the link
[11:08] <eigenlambda> when i installed dapper, it was all like, you only get to install on ext3, but you can put /home on reiserfs if you want to
[11:08] <Some_Person> I'm so glad i got my Linuxant working for free on 56k
[11:08] <eigenlambda> ext3 is a waste of disk space, and it performs poorly at that
[11:09] <hav0k> i need help from someone who has had success with the compiz set with an ati card... or anyone for that matter
[11:09] <christos> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16017
[11:09] <billybennett> why is ext3 bad?
[11:09] <catch23_> hi, mdadm -E /dev/md2 complains that the superblock is missing, how can I rebuild the superblock without modifying any of the data on the drives?
[11:09] <rverrips> eigenlambda - You sure you wan't install dapper on reiser (you'd have to select manual partitioning of course)?
[11:09] <reclusivemonkey> is there anywhere you can request programs be added to the ubuntu repositories?
[11:09] <Tomcat_> I use ReiserFS only, but that's more of a personal preference... the benchmarks are only a bit better than with ext3.
[11:09] <eigenlambda> no, i might have wanted to a while ago but i don't care that much now
[11:09] <ubu_new> also the screen is a bit shecking
[11:10] <LjL> reclusivemonkey: #ubuntu-motu perhaps
[11:10] <Ackeubu_> how to config hotmail for evolution?
[11:10] <crimsun> CurtisB: under Dapper there's no need to export CC; the compiler version is identical for the toolchain and the pool packages. Which alsa-driver version are you using? Have you checked the 'alsa-source' factoid on ubotu?
[11:10] <reclusivemonkey> LjL: thanks I'll try there
[11:10] <eigenlambda> ext3 wastes a lot of disk space
[11:10] <ubu_new> affan, it's becuase it is server?
[11:10] <hav0k> reclusivemonkey: probably somewhere in the develop pages
[11:10] <eigenlambda> it is important to people who still have 40GB hard drives
[11:10] <affan> ubu_new: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingXubuntu this is for Xubuntu but u can use it for others as well.... also http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/xubuntu
[11:10] <hav0k> i need help from someone who has had success with the compiz set with an ati card... or anyone for that matter
[11:10] <CurtisB> ubotu tell CurtisB about alsa-source
[11:10] <affan> ubu_new: yes i think so
[11:10] <ubu_new> affan, thanks
[11:11] <Bassetts> can anyone recommend a wireless laptop card that works well with linux?
[11:11] <ubu_new> affan, and what about the shecking screen
[11:11] <billybennett> well I've only got a 80gb on my laptop but I've never heard of people using Reiser Ive heard of it but other then that dont know anything
[11:11] <moonunit> how do i enable support for .rar files?
[11:11] <iiiears> evolution+hotmail http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=evolution+hotmail&btnG=Google+Search
[11:11] <LjL> moonunit: install rar or rar-nonfree
[11:11] <LjL> moonunit: (rar-nonfree handles more files, but it's, well, non free)
[11:11] <moonunit> LjL, via synaptic?
[11:11] <crimsun> christos: amixer set 'Headphone Jack Sense' on
[11:12] <LjL> moonunit: via whatever package manager you like best, synaptic being one of them
[11:12] <leafw> why in the world doesn't the packaged BitchX read out the ~/.bitchxrc ?
[11:12] <FRbsd> did anyone have a problem with GDM starting a failsafe session rather than Gnome ?
[11:12] <affan> ubu_new: u mean shaking screen? well that might have to do with X configuration
[11:12] <Zambezi> moonlite, rar -x yourfile.rar to extract. x is better cause it doesn't affect subfolders.
[11:12] <JDahl> reclusivemonkey: even if someone is willing to package it, it will take some time.
[11:12] <hav0k> can anyone help me with setting up compiz?
[11:12] <moonlite> Zambezi: ok :)
[11:12] <catch23_> hm, anyone here know mdadm well?
[11:12] <FRbsd> catch23_: go on ?
[11:12] <LjL> moonlite: i think the Gnome File Roller will start handling .rar files too, once you have rar installed.
[11:13] <CurtisB> crimsun - re: export CC, roger.  re: driver version, I tried with both the sources on /usr/src (1.0.10, I think) as well as the set that I used succesfully in 5.10 (alsa-driver-1.0.11rc3)
[11:13] <reclusivemonkey> JDahl: if it arrives before Slackware 11 I may stick with Ubuntu ;-)
[11:13] <Zambezi> moonlite, One tip more. It will be extracted in the same folder.
[11:13] <affan> hi all. My right-click desktop menu in XFCE/Xubuntu disappeared for some reason.  I cant see where to fix them. Any ideas? thanks a lot
[11:13] <moonlite> i'm popular today :)
[11:13] <crimsun> christos: any luck?
[11:13] <catch23_> FRbsd: somehow the superblock magic got wiped...  would there be an easy way to rebuild that info without losing data on the drives?
[11:14] <christos> crimsun: no still the same
[11:14] <crimsun> christos: amixer set 'External Amplifier' off
[11:14] <CurtisB> crimsun - I don't have module-assistant, trying out the factoid now...!
[11:14] <iiiears> affan fontconfig ??
[11:14] <catch23_> FRbsd: basically, mdadm -E /dev/md2 says no magic is found....  only zeros
[11:14] <hav0k> can anyone help me with compiz?
[11:15] <christos> crimsun: it was off
[11:15] <mrDaniel> is here someone with knowledge about acpi under linux
[11:15] <mrDaniel> ?
[11:15] <FRbsd> catch23_: what does /proc/mdstat say ?
[11:15] <mrDaniel> i want to fix my dsdt
[11:15] <crimsun> christos: not according to the pastebin link you gave me...
[11:15] <LjL> oh about acpi, there's just been an acpi-support update, anyone know what it fixes?
[11:16] <Seveas> %config channel plugins.myfactoids.database ubuntu
[11:16] <Bassetts> can anyone recommend a wireless laptop card that works well with linux?
[11:16] <Seveas> %part
[11:16] <affan> iiiears: no it has to do with XFCE setting i guess... or XFCE theming... i m not sur
[11:16] <christos> Simple mixer control 'External Amplifier',0
[11:16] <mrDaniel> but: 8 errors
[11:16] <JDahl> reclusivemonkey: I experimented with debian packages awhile ago for a pet software project, and it was actually not hard (if I can do it, probably most people can)... http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ is your friend
[11:16] <catch23_> FRbsd: the /dev/md2 array is gone...  basically, how would I recreate the array, if I assume the other drives are all faulty except for 1 clean drive?
[11:16] <mrDaniel> which i don't understand: dsdt.dsl  1471:                     Name (_T_2, Zero)
[11:16] <mrDaniel> Error    1080 -         Use of reserved word ^  (_T_2)
[11:16] <christos> crimsun: the pastebin says Simple mixer control 'External Amplifier',0
[11:16] <mrDaniel> do someone know this error?
[11:17] <catch23_> FRbsd: can I state somehow to recreate /dev/md2 with 1 clean drive, and 1 faulty one that I won't add immediately?
[11:17] <reclusivemonkey> JDahl: I have a baby on the way. I am doing a trial of Ubuntu coming from Slack; If I still have to compile, and it takes any effort, I'm off back to Slack
[11:17] <FRbsd> catch23_: yes, follow this
[11:17] <iiiears> affan - is there a gconf-editor equivalent for XFCE4?
[11:17] <crimsun> christos: line 118. Mono: Playback [on]
[11:17] <mrDaniel> or in other words: do someone know a goos site about the specification of the intel ASL compiler and it's error-codes?
[11:17] <LjL> reclusivemonkey: what is it that you need?
[11:17] <reclusivemonkey> LjL: OGMRip
[11:18] <ubu_new> affan: what is the root password?
[11:18] <IsaacKlinger> I need some help with Gkrellm or lm-sensors.
[11:18] <LjL> reclusivemonkey: i can compile it for you. well i can try.
[11:18] <FRbsd> catch23_: mdadm -Cv /dev/md2 -l1 -n2 missing /dev/sdb1
[11:18] <affan> ubu_new: there is none... u should use sudo
[11:18] <reclusivemonkey> LjL: thanks
[11:19] <FRbsd> catch23_: where this is for raid1 and sdb1 is your second partition of the second drive
[11:19] <christos> crimsun: thanks a lot, I was making the changes you suggested from the asamixer gui,  everything works fine now, thanks again
[11:19] <catch23_> FRbsd: is /dev/sdb1 the clean or dirty drive?
[11:19] <HaMF> Hi
[11:19] <bsg> where I can configure what is startting at boot?
[11:19] <crimsun> christos: np.
[11:20] <hav0k> bsg under prefs and under sessions
[11:20] <FRbsd> catch23_: sdb1 is the clean one, the one where your data still is
[11:20] <FRbsd> actually hold on
[11:20] <bsg> hav0k: what do you mean?
[11:20] <FRbsd> catch23_: you can still mount the clean drive with the data on it ?
[11:20] <mindspit> hallo all! i want to uninstall glibc in ubuntu ... in oder for my apache/ISPConfig/php installation can work. can i ?
[11:20] <rverrips> bsg: sudo apt-get rcconf and then run rcconf
[11:20] <ubu_new> affan, when I try to install iapt-get install gdm - it writes me permission denied - are you root?
[11:20] <catch23_> FRbsd: yeah, i can still mount all 3 raid 1 drives actually (only individually though)
[11:21] <HaMF> i cant set the default sound card with the help of "gnome-sound-properties" everytime i click apply and start it again, the default sound-card is SAA7143 again and that's unforunately my TV card.
[11:21] <Eroick> how big is a server install?
[11:21] <HaMF> were is this configuration normally saved?
[11:21] <FRbsd> catch23_: raid1 is 2 drives
[11:21] <catch23_> FRbsd: could I even force all 3 drives to be "clean"?
[11:21] <hikikomori> hi
[11:21] <hav0k> bsg: under the main menu, then under system>prefs>sessions.  you can edit what you want to start up on boot... or at the begining of a session
[11:21] <FRbsd> catch23_: use this them : mdadm /dev/md2 -a /dev/sda6
[11:21] <hikikomori> how can i use secondary screen on ubuntu?
[11:21] <IsaacKlinger> Does anyone know how to, for instance, echo 255 > pwm2, in the fan speed settings, without getting an access error?
[11:21] <catch23_> FRbsd: well, i'm using raid1 with 3 drives :-)
[11:21] <hav0k> bsg: but i guess thats not what youe asking?
[11:21] <affan> ubu_new: try "sudo apt-get ......"
[11:21] <hikikomori> is it possible?
[11:21] <FRbsd> catch23_: where sda6 is the one you want to rebuild
[11:21] <FRbsd> catch23_: raid0+1 then ?
[11:22] <ubu_new> affan, I also don't think it is reading from the cd drive
[11:22] <CurtisB> crimsun - okay this is probably a dumb question -- You should now stop all applications using sound devices and reload all ALSA sound modules. -- does that mean do the sudo modprobe snd-mia; sudo modprobe snd-intel0x8?
[11:22] <bsg> hav0k: there is some of processes in rcconf, but not all I think
[11:22] <ubu_new> affan, couldn't find package xubuntu-desktop
[11:22] <FRbsd> catch23_: espresso, brb
[11:22] <bsg> for example I want to disable LVM
[11:22] <catch23_> FRbsd: no, just raid1 with 3 drives...  identical data being written to all 3 drives...  mainly because the data is rarely written, but read a lot...  more drives mean more concurrent readability
[11:22] <affan> ubu_new: it wont... it will download from the internet i think
[11:22] <catch23_> FRbsd: k
[11:22] <bsg> or raid support
[11:22] <ToHellWithGA> gnome volume manager freaks out a lot.  is that normal?
[11:22] <ubu_new> affan, there is still no internet connection only the cd on the drive]
[11:22] <hav0k> bsg, ah, i gotcha
[11:23] !lilo:*! Hi all. Just a reminder to Debian-related channels that may be switching networks: freenode channel termination policy ( http://freenode.net/policy.shtml#termination ) allows referrals from old channel to new for a week.... after that, it's most appropriate to update your project website to let your members know where the new official channel is located.... thanks!
[11:23] <affan> ubu_new: u want GNOME or KDE? or XFCE?
[11:23] <catch23_> FRbsd: if I wanted raid 0+1, I'd need 4 drives....
[11:23] <ubu_new> don't care
[11:23] <kblog> hi, does anybody know why i cant see anything if I play a wmf with mplayer / vlc?
[11:23] <hikikomori> hi?
[11:23] <crimsun> CurtisB: kill all the processes listed in the output of ``lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*'', then unload all the snd_ modules, then reload just the two you want.
[11:23] <ubu_new> affan, what you prefer?
[11:23] <dwt> HI there, can anybody give me a hint how I can find out which exact version of a driver linux is using? I want to find out if madwifi is used in the classic or ng version (dapper is used here)
[11:23] <hikikomori> do anybody know how can i use secondary screen on ubuntu?
[11:23] <hav0k> can anyone help me with compiz setup?
[11:23] <jrib> kblog: do you have w32codecs?
[11:23] <simian__> i keep getting attempted connections to port 5900 (VNC). should i be worried?
[11:23] <rverrips> hey tohellwithga: not normal for volume manager to freak out a lot
[11:23] <kblog> i can hear sound of this movie but cant se no images
[11:23] <ztripez> i've got this home brewd shelskript i made and now i whant it to been executet everytime an user log or out... where?
[11:23] <catch23_> I suppose I could do raid 0 with two drives, and raid 1 with the raid 0 and normal drive....  though that'd be weird
[11:23] <affan> ubu_new: if u have a decent computer (good memory etc.) i would go for KDE/GNOME since that is more user friendly
[11:24] <hav0k> kblog, it sounds like you dont have the codecs
[11:24] <ubu_new> affan, ok so I need to install from start now?
[11:24] <kblog> jrib: i cant find it in adept...
[11:24] <affan> ubu_new: try apt/getting ubuntu-desktop?
[11:24] <ubu_new> affan, I don't care if it is kde or gnome
[11:24] <ToHellWithGA> also, now that i've moved /home to a new partition, do i just use the "custom partitioning" option in the installer to get that one to be /home ?
[11:25] <jrib> ubotu: tell kblog about w32codecs
[11:25] <ubu_new> affan, to write app-get ubuntu-desktop ?
[11:25] <kblog> hav0k: so which codes do i need?
[11:25] <jrib> kblog: they aren't there, ubotu should have sent you a link with more info
[11:25] <affan> ubu_new: yes.. .with a sudo first
[11:25] <Eroick> how big is a server install?
[11:25] <ubu_new> affan, invalid operation ubuntu-desktop
[11:25] <affan> ubu_new: did u update apt get first? after editing the files like it said?
[11:25] <bsg> thx for your help. bye
[11:26] <ubu_new> affan, I think so
[11:26] <arnold> bonjour, je voudrais savoir comment faire apparaitre ma partition fat32 sur mon serveur linux... merci

[11:27] <hikikomori> do anybody know how can i use secondary screen on ubuntu?
[11:27] <hav0k> kblog, im guessing the w32codecs... i think you can find them under the restricted formats
[11:27] <_absolution_> how does one instal a splash screen?
[11:27] <affan> ubu_new: i m not sure if that will make a difference.. wait a sec.
[11:27] <FRbsd> catch23_: so did it work ?
[11:27] <hav0k> kblog: probably here:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[11:27] <arnold> Hello, I'd like to know how to make my "fat 32" appear...
[11:27] <Eroick> does linux suppport WMA files?
[11:27] <ubu_new> affan, ok thanks
[11:27] <affan> ubu_new: i think i saw a link somewhere for a Ubuntu server install
[11:27] <rverrips> hikikomori - you need to set up the second screen in xorg.conf
[11:28] <jrib> ubotu: tell arnold about vfat
[11:28] <catch23_> FRbsd: yeah it worked.  the array is rebuilding now.  thanks
[11:28] <dwt> HI there, can anybody give me a hint how I can find out which exact version of a driver linux is using? I want to find out if madwifi is used in the classic or ng version (dapper is used here)

[11:29] <FRbsd> catch23_: make sure you update your configuration file mdadm.conf adterwards
[11:30] <FRbsd> catch23_: also, how did it happen ?
[11:30] <dwt> iiiears:  well - I get the name of the module - but how do I get the exact version?
[11:30] <LjL> reclusivemonkey: that program does not compile. make fails with errors in ogmrip-backend.c that from the looks of them appear to be actual errors, not just missing packages that configure forgot to check for

[11:32] <CurtisB> crimsun - well, still no luck, but I have to go :( my family is starting dinner now.  in System Information I can see the card: Motorola DSP56361 but it/ALSA aren't cooperating so far... I'll have to revisit this later tonight or tomorrow.  Thanks for the help!
[11:32] <LjL> reclusivemonkey: well, it doesn't here. anyway, if you want to try yourself, i can tell you that you need at least the following packages installed: libxml-parser-perl lame ogmtools mencoder mplayer libdvdread3-dev libglib2.0-dev
[11:32] <ubu_new> affan, the only problem is that I thought that kde or gnome is already installed with the server installation
[11:32] <reclusivemonkey> LjL: have all those installed
[11:32] <LjL> reclusivemonkey: i tried with both gcc 4 and gcc 3
[11:32] <affan> Hi Guys, I have a weird problem in XFCE. I open the Desktop Manager and click "Let XFCE Manage the desktop" and everything works ok... but then suddenly there is a flicker and the right-click menu disappears. Any one knows wat might be the problem?
[11:33] <udo> i dont hear any sound i dont know why my system already detect my card
[11:33] <FRbsd> catch23_: you might want to check logs
[11:33] <crimsun> udo: pastebin ``cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer''
[11:33] <iiiears>  ubu_new - sudo apt-get ubuntu-deksop (gnome) kubuntu-desktop (KDE) xubuntu-destop (XFCE4)
[11:33] <scompal1> Hello people! Here I am on ubunutu!!
[11:33] <FRbsd> catch23_: and smart status too
[11:33] <arnold> ???
[11:33] <simian__> i keep getting attempted connections to port 5900 (VNC). should i be worried?
[11:33] <Gullstad> How setup a LAN-printer?
[11:33] <jrib> arnold: ubotu should have sent you information about fat32 partitions
[11:34] <airboy> hello
[11:34] <affan> iiiears: ubu_new doesnt have network on the machine
[11:34] <dwt> Well, thanks for trying to help! cu
[11:34] <XiXaQ> what is gam_server?
[11:34] <ubu_new> affan, e: invalid operation ubuntu-desktop
[11:34] <reclusivemonkey> LjL: thanks anyway
[11:34] <airboy> simple q: i have ns1, ns2 from my webhost where i buy my own vps server with ubuntu 6.06 which allready have webmin
[11:34] <arnold> sorry i don't think he did...
[11:35] <affan> ubu_new: u can get to the internet? did u configure the net?
[11:35] <airboy> did i still need to setup bind or i can just add user and virtual site in apache?
[11:35] <ubu_new> affan, no
[11:35] <iiiears> ubu - one of those should do it. - gnome is what most are using here. - KDE is a bit prettier. but uses some ram. xfce4 will run on nearly anything and use less ram. (more challenging to configure)
[11:35] <ubu_new> affan, how can i configure dail up?
[11:35] <Gullstad> How setup a LAN-printer?
[11:35] <airboy> and in godaddy i add webhost ns1 and ns2 right?
[11:35] <jrib> ubotu: tell arnold about vfat
[11:35] <jrib> arnold: check your private messages now
[11:35] <affan> ubu_new: oh i m not sure about that.... i have never done that
[11:36] <ubu_new> affan, but I am sure there is way to install it all from the cd drive
[11:37] <udo> crimsun i have VIA 8237 with AD1888 at 0xe400, irq 201 i think the problem is the irq
[11:37] <rverrips> Gullstad - What kind of LAN printer?  HP?
[11:37] <hav0k> can anyone help me with compiz?
[11:37] <crimsun> udo: the pastebin output would be more useful to me.
[11:37] <Gullstad> rverrips: Yes
[11:38] <LjL> reclusivemonkey: have a look here http://apt.cerkinfo.be/  --- no guarantees at all of course
[11:38] <Magical1492> Can anyone help me with dual booting the latest version of Ubuntu (A Live CD install) and Windows XP?
[11:38] <airboy> anybody plz?
[11:39] <LjL> Magical1492: maybe we can. what is the problem?
[11:39] <iiiears> ubotu tell Magical about grub
[11:39] <udo> where can i pastebin
[11:39] <iiiears> !grub
[11:39] <LjL> !pastebin
[11:39] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[11:39] <ubotu> Please do not flood the channel! Use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for pasting long pieces of text, to avoid disrupting the channel. You might also want to use the "webboard" package from Universe.
[11:39] <Magical1492> Alright, I have a copy of Windows XP on a laptop
[11:39] <arnold> ok great but actually I think the problem is in fstab....
[11:40] <Magical1492> And I want to use this Live CD that I'm on now, using the Install utility (if I can) to dual boot with Windows XP
[11:40] <LjL> Magical1492: that is possible.
[11:40] <Magical1492> Can I do it without disturbing the XP partition?
[11:40] <ubu_new> affan, thanks for your help
[11:40] <LjL> Magical1492: if you have some free space on your drive that's not taken by any windows partition, yes
[11:41] <hav0k> can anyone help me with compiz?
[11:41] <affan> ubu_new: did it work?
[11:41] <LjL> Magical1492: otherwise, the installer is supposed to be able to "shrink" your windows partition
[11:41] <ubu_new> no I will install it from the beginning as normal
[11:41] <rverrips> Magical - The installer will install something called GRUB in the boot space and when you startup the PC will ask if you want Linux or XP
[11:41] <ubu_new> because I don't know how to find way to update the kde or gnome from the cd
[11:41] <tempered> I want to run World of Warcraft and do Perl and HTML stuff.  Is the Ubuntu Desktop setup for this?
[11:42] <ubu_new> affan, unless you will give me idea ;-)
[11:42] <serverman> hey what is the room for server talk?
[11:42] <LjL> tempered: i don't see a problem with Perl and HTML. i hear that WoW can work in Cedega (and possibly Wine?), but i have no first hand experience
[11:42] <edneymatias> see ya
[11:42] <Magical1492> Yeah, I've heard about GRUB, but I wouldn't know how to install it without disturbing my other partition, really don't want to reformat if possible
[11:42] <tempered> thank you LjL
[11:42] <affan> ubu_new: i know how to do it from synaptic but since u dont have GUI you cant use that.... maybe ask some1 how to read package info from CD using apt-get
[11:42] <serverman> i need help with my server what room should i go to?
[11:43] <LjL> Magical1492: you don't have to know, the installer will take care of that automatically
[11:43] <rverrips> ask away serverman
[11:43] <affan> ubu_new: there must be a way to install packages from the CD
[11:43] <ccooke> serverman: What's the problem?
[11:43] <iiiears> LjL - Cedega - WINE? - not so well. WoW uses DirectX and Cedega supports it.
[11:43] <arnold> ??
[11:43] <arnold> I don't understand...
[11:43] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16020
[11:43] <Magical1492> Alright, so if I use the Install feature of Ubuntu, it will take care of it?
[11:43] <affan> ubu_new: can u see the GNOME/KDE packages in the CD?
[11:43] <Magical1492> LIVE CD
[11:43] <serverman> i just set up a LAMP but don't have very much experience with servers.. (this is my first one)
[11:43] <crimsun> udo: ok, one sec
[11:43] <LjL> iiiears: Wine supports DirectX too. it's just that the support is still a little broken
[11:43] <ubu_new> affan, how do I do that?
[11:43] <serverman> i would like to set my server up so i can edit it from my desktop
[11:44] <serverman> i was thinking of using vncviewer or ssh
[11:44] <crimsun> udo: are you trying to use the onboard sound device (Via, it looks like) as the default and not the tv tuner?
[11:44] <LjL> Magical1492: by "live CD" i assume you mean the Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake) Desktop CD? if so, then yes.
[11:44] <duckdown> Hey all.. Real easy question; I'm running a webserver from home, but my /pictures/ folder is WORLD READABLE (as oppposed to only be able to see specific links to .jpg's) how do I need to chmod that folder?
[11:44] <Magical1492> yep
[11:44] <ubu_new> affan, there is diffrance between the normal eddtion and the server eddtion if I want it to be server?
[11:44] <affan> ubu_new: thats a good question :)... .i guess just browse the CD using "ls, find" etc.
[11:44] <ccooke> serverman: So, you want a web site you can edit from the desktop?
[11:44] <_absolution_> what's a good dvd ripping program out there???
[11:44] <LjL> Magical1492: just make sure that you do *NOT* select the "Erase entire disk" option when then installer asks you which method to use ;-)
[11:44] <rverrips> serverman: SSH is probably better, with that you can upload/download as well - Your desktop is windows?
[11:44] <ubu_new> affan, I think it will be faster to install it all from the begining
[11:44] <serverman> rverrips no both are linux
[11:44] <Magical1492> Yeah
[11:45] <Magical1492> >_>
[11:45] <serverman> rverrips ubuntu linux both of them
[11:45] <ccooke> serverman: that's actually very easy. Make sure you have the ssh *server* (openssh-server) installed on the server, then mount "/var/www" from your desktop
[11:45] <affan> ubu_new: so how will that help? did u see an option to select GUI during install?
[11:45] <ztripez> anyone know sshfs here? need to know how to remove the password asking stuff all the time
[11:45] <AlinuxOS> hello all, where can I get my boot messages ? /var/log/somewhere.... Imean exactly that I see at boot.
[11:45] <udo> crimsun i have VIA the default sound card
[11:45] <rverrips> ccooke is on the money there serverman ...
[11:45] <AlinuxOS> I have some error messages
[11:45] <AlinuxOS> so I would like to investigate.
[11:45] <serverman> ccooke im not sure that i have my server set up correctly because when i go to my routers menu my servers ip doesnt show up
[11:45] <LjL> Magical1492: if you have some free space on your HD (i.e. unpartitioned space), the installer will ask you if you want to install there. if you have no free space, it will ask you if you want to resize your Windows partition so that it becomes smaller, and space for Linux gets created. in either case, GRUB is installed and automatically configured so that it will show a menu asking whether you want to boot Linux or Windows
[11:45] <hav0k> does anyone know anything about compiz?
[11:45] <ccooke> serverman: On the desktop, all you need is to click Places -> Connect to Server
[11:45] <hav0k> and xgl?
[11:45] <QPAD|W-DND> I was wondering how to boost the HZ to 1000 ? (Im using 2.6.12-10-686-smp, ubuntu 5.10 server breezy) Anyone ? (also, is this dangerous?)
[11:46] <rverrips> serverman - what router you got, and can you ping the server?
[11:46] <ubu_new> affan, no but if I will install the other cd - normal one and not server one it will be ok and there will be kde right?
[11:46] <ccooke> serverman: can you ping the server from the desktop?
[11:46] <crimsun> udo: amixer set 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' 0
[11:46] <serverman> my router is a Belkin
[11:46] <ubu_new> affan, or I will have to do it all over again?
[11:46] <QPAD|W-DND> Anyone who could help me out with boosting the HZ to 1000 ?
[11:46] <serverman> I don't know the static ip of my server
[11:46] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, yes changing HZ is dangerous
[11:46] <QPAD|W-DND> It is ?
[11:46] <serverman> i havent set one yet
[11:46] <ccooke> serverman: you'll need to set one, then
[11:46] <serverman> ya
[11:46] <QPAD|W-DND> Whys this dolmen, what exactly can happend?
[11:47] <serverman> how do i do that haha
[11:47] <crimsun> QPAD|W-DND: it's 1000 by default in Dapper.
[11:47] <QPAD|W-DND> I dont use dapper.
[11:47] <affan> ubu_new: if u use a normal Ubuntu CD you will get GNOME
[11:47] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, if you want more speed, upgrade to dapper
[11:47] <serverman> ccooke i have been trying to figure out how to do that but havening trouble
[11:47] <ubu_new> affan, and it will be good to be server?
[11:47] <QPAD|W-DND> dolmen, does dapper work good for game-servers?
[11:47] <crimsun> QPAD|W-DND: just so you know, it was dropped to 250 in Edgy.
[11:47] <roler> is the Intel Core Duo considered a Pentium M or a Pentium 4? in the cpu setup of 2.6.17?
[11:47] <ccooke> serverman: does your server have a graphical login or only text?
[11:47] <tempered> dapper is a lamp servcer?
[11:47] <serverman> ccooke only text
[11:47] <tiagoboldt> tempered: it could be installed like that
[11:47] <affan> ubu_new: i am not sure about this... ask the public... i think it should be ok... you might have to install a few more apps or make some changes after wards
[11:48] <ccooke> serverman: okay, then. You'll need to edit (using sudo) /etc/network/interfaces
[11:48] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, don't know for game servers.
[11:48] <ccooke> serverman: I'm guessing you don't know how to use vi, yes?
[11:48] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, but dapper is generally faster
[11:48] <ubu_new> affan, ok thanks for your help bye for now
[11:48] <QPAD|W-DND> dolmen oh well, is there a way to boost it up ?
[11:48] <QPAD|W-DND> well dolmen, in what ways?
[11:48] <serverman> ccooke .. i well i have used vim before but it wont let me edit the /etc/network/interfaces
[11:48] <serverman> ccooke is vi like vim??
[11:48] <ccooke> serverman: yes, it is.
[11:49] <ccooke> serverman: you'll need to use sudo to edit the file.
[11:49] <rverrips> cooke - I believe pico is part of standard ubuntu install and easier to use than vi
[11:49] <serverman> ccooke ok that might have been my problem
[11:49] <ccooke> serverman: that's 'sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces'. However, you'll probably find 'sudoedit /etc/network/interface' an easier one to use.
[11:49] <ccooke> serverman: sudoedit will automatically pick up the default editor (which on ubuntu is nano)
[11:50] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, a more recent kernel usually has additionnal optimisations
[11:50] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16022
[11:50] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, and this is the case with Dapper
[11:50] <serverman> ccooke ok so is this where i would then type in somthign like iface eth1 inet static
[11:50] <serverman> 	address <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:50] <serverman> 	netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:50] <serverman> 	gateway <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:51] <ccooke> serverman: That's right. Assuming your private network is using <IP_ADDRESS>/16, anyway.
[11:51] <Jinkguns> Excuse me, but could someone tell me how to turn off the marker line in Xchat?
[11:51] <ccooke> serverman: (sorry, /24 not /16)
[11:51] <Some_Person> Whats the best Linux Media Player?
[11:52] <udo> crimsun this command its only mute my speaker
[11:52] <Lens> when you deny an account administrative privaliges there is absolutely no way to to do anything administrative... right? no, logging in with root pass or anything?
[11:52] <Some_Person> I need a Windows Media Player 10/11-like player
[11:52] <QPAD|W-DND> dolmen, is dapper console, or graphic?
[11:52] <serverman> ccooke ... i would ask what the diffrences but I don't wanna confuse my self ha ha
[11:52] [cyanescent(n=niel@dslb-088-072-238-245.pools.arcor-ip.net)]  help
[11:52] <ccooke> Hum. Looks like a bug needs to be filed against ubuntu' use of nano (and sudoedit in particular)
[11:52] <serverman> ccooke ok im ganna do that brb ill tell you how it goes
[11:53] <ccooke> serverman: You'll need to add "auto eth1" there a well
[11:53] <NoUse> Some_Person you mean a really crappy player?
[11:53] <ccooke> serverman: are you sure the interface you want is eth1?
[11:53] <ccooke> serverman: firt ethernet device is usually eth0
[11:53] <Some_Person> No, a nice easy to use pretty player
[11:53] <udo> crimsun this is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16022
[11:53] <NoUse> Some_Person totem?
[11:53] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, Dapper is the new release 6 months after Breezy
[11:53] <serverman> ccooke um ya i belive im going to try it one eth0
[11:53] <Some_Person> Totem is CRAP
[11:53] <ccooke> serverman: Right.
[11:53] <NoUse> Some_Person did you install totem-xine?
[11:53] <QPAD|W-DND> dolmen, ah ok, so its not graphic ?
[11:53] <serverman> ccooke also, i should add "auto eth0" ??
[11:54] <ccooke> serverman: and a warning: Ignore what I said about sudoedit. I'll have to file a but there.
[11:54] <Lens> I just want to edit this xml file, but I'm in a non-admin priv. acct., so I guess the ONLY way is to log out and log in as admin to edit the locked xml file?
[11:54] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, Dapper is graphic
[11:54] <QPAD|W-DND> Then I cannot use it.
[11:54] <ccooke> serverman: Yes. The auto like tells Ubuntu to start the network device on bootup.
[11:54] <si|vercat> anyone quite familiar with iptables here? I want a firewall ruleset with masquerading, but restrictive. I want to add the IP's to computers granted access to "the outside" manually.. what's the basic idea?
[11:54] <serverman> ccooke sweet
[11:54] <Some_Person> totem is the only player that wont play audio correctly
[11:54] <NoUse> Some_Person mplayer is good player
[11:54] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, Wh?
[11:54] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, Why?
[11:54] <krang> I've got a few machines configured for NIS/NFS login and home dir, but every machine I setup for network auth and storage for homes breaks my sound. /dev/snd isn't open on the broken machines, so i'm a bit stumped as to why the ALSA mixer can't detect anything when it could before. The appropriate module is loaded, too
[11:54] <QPAD|W-DND> Because its not console based, I mean. Just text based. It wont work out well for my game-servers, as i run a few.
[11:54] <serverman> ccooke what about this part of the code do i really need to add it? "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[11:54] <Some_Person> i have mplayer, its ok, but i want a more easy gui
[11:55] <ccooke> serverman: (sudoedit, by default, calls nano. However, nano *by default* needs the parameter "-w" to be safe - without it, it can add breaks into long lines and break your configs)
[11:55] <NoUse> Some_Person you might have to write one
[11:55] <jammer> hi to all
[11:55] <Some_Person> no way
[11:55] <NoUse> Some_Person vlc is the only other thing I can think of
[11:55] <pteppic> Evening all.
[11:55] <tiagoboldt> Some_Person: just audio or also video?
[11:55] <crimsun> udo: good, can you try playing music?
[11:55] <Some_Person> both
[11:55] <ccooke> serverman: you only need one stanza for eth0
[11:55] <krang> I've got a few machines configured for NIS/NFS login and home dir, but every machine I setup for network auth and storage for homes breaks my sound. /dev/snd isn't open on the broken machines, so i'm a bit stumped as to why the ALSA mixer can't detect anything when it could before (gstreamer errors). The appropriate module is loaded, too
[11:55] <krang> oops sorry, double post
[11:55] <jammer> Someone ca nhelp me to install Video4Linux on my Dapper Box? Many thanks
[11:55] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, On a Linux system, the graphical environment (Gnome, KDE) is always optionnal.
[11:55] <krang> jammer: it's already in the kernel
[11:56] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, You an always disable it
[11:56] <udo> crimsun its mute
[11:56] <tiagoboldt> Some_Person: wine wmp.exe
[11:56] <ccooke> serverman: the 'dhcp' bit means "get an address automatically", the opposite of static addressing.
[11:56] <tiagoboldt> :P
[11:56] <pteppic> AMD64, nforce3, Dapper, 2.6.5-25, hangs at "Mounting root file system", trawled forums, still getting nowhere.
[11:56] <Some_Person> I got addicted to Windows Media Player 11 on Windows, so now I want something like that for Linux.
[11:56] <crimsun> udo: amixer set 'External Amplifier' on
[11:56] <ccooke> serverman: and a server really needs a static address
[11:56] <eigenlambda> if you want something like WMP, try XMMS
[11:56] <eigenlambda> IIRC
[11:56] <eigenlambda> LOL
[11:56] <serverman> ccooke oh right ok ... so then just do a "iface eth0" then???
[11:56] <nickrud> Some_Person, wine (runs)
[11:56] <Some_Person> i have xmms, its like winamp
[11:56] <ccooke> pteppic: Try waiting for about 10 minutes?
[11:56] <QPAD|W-DND> dolmen, is there a dapper installation only for server? without the graphic part?
[11:56] <jammer> krang: but for drivers of my new WINTV-PVR-500 w/ dual tuner what I can do?
[11:56] <dolmen> QPAD|W-DND, yes
[11:56] <Some_Person> i cant get wmp10 working in wine
[11:57] <Some_Person> or 11
[11:57] <eigenlambda> i ha8 wmp
[11:57] <serverman> ccooke or is that not needed either?
[11:57] <pteppic> ccooke: Not helping.  Fancy meeting you here :-)
[11:57] <ccooke> pteppic: I've found 2.6.15-25 stalls for a long time on this laptop (2 minute, sometimes) at that point
[11:57] <krang> jammer: Dunno, I only ever used webcams and made sure they were already supported
[11:57] <nickrud> alpha software, forever
[11:57] <Some_Person> i like WMP
[11:57] <eigenlambda> mplayer > wmp (on windows)
[11:57] <ccooke> serverman: You need exactly one block in the file that begins "iface eth0"
[11:57] <pteppic> ccooke: I've left it a couple of hours, still no joye.
[11:57] <NoUse> Some_Person I use Kaffeine but you'll have to pull down all the KDE libs
[11:57] <QPAD|W-DND> dolmen, how do i install it ? apt-get . ?
[11:57] <Lens> will I need to login to my admin acct to edit this locked xml file from my non-admin privliged acct?
[11:57] <Some_Person> WMP > any linux media player i've seen so far
[11:58] <eigenlambda> wmp sucks more than internet xplorer
[11:58] <ccooke> serverman: for a static IP, you need that to be: "iface eth0 inet static", followed by extra lines that give your server a static IP
[11:58] <jammer> Someone can help me with my new WinTV TVtuner Card????
[11:58] <Some_Person> Internet Explorer does suck
[11:58] <Draconicus> I've reinstalled all dependencies of xubuntu-desktop, and I've tried removing my home directory files related to XFCE. No matter what I do, the desktop will not show up. I get a panel and a taskbar, but no desktop.
