[19:26] <ZaphodBeeblebrox> spork969: Heh, ok I deserved that. Thanks spork969 :)
[19:26] <zcat[1]> AtomicSpark: well, spoofing it implies spoofing your MAC as well .. best answer is to turn off wireless security but the only route goes to a PPTP tunnel
[19:26] <chazco> Is the prefered way to install .debs from a script on Ubuntu gdebi?
[19:26] <Pelo> Seveas, I guess I am screwed then
[19:26] <KillDaDon> philphoto: sorry was away.. which app ?
[19:27] <Seveas> chazco, no, the prefered way is using a repository.
[19:27] <AtomicSpark> ZaphodBeeblebrox: http://www.docx2doc.com/ try that. of course dont use any secret documents. :P
[19:27] <KillDaDon> philphoto: hamachi?
[19:27] <chazco> Seveas - You know what I mean :D Its not in the repos
[19:27] <Pelo> chthe prefered way is to install from synaptic
[19:27] <Cyrus25801> i have a .rar file with a password on that i cant remember.is there any way of getting past the password of taking it off
[19:27] <Shyde> vita_: the website says http://forums.phoenixlabs.org/forumdisplay.php?f=15 is the place to get support, the only problem I had with moblock was that it was too annoying to set the ports up :)
[19:27] <philphoto> KilldaDon:  that one
[19:27] <prince_jammys> chazco: you can use gdebi or type   sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[19:27] <philphoto> thx
[19:27] <ZaphodBeeblebrox> lol of course. Thanks a lot AtomicSpark :D
[19:27] <Seveas> chazco, then file an inclusion request :)
[19:27] <xtknight> what is the best wireless pci card for linux?
[19:27] <spork969> anybody know of a way to turn three pdf files into one pdf file like instead of having three documents with 5 pages each, you have one with 15 pages?
[19:27] <xtknight> i'm going to order soething off newegg i want to order something supported fully
[19:27] <Fraser_M> the preferred way is APT/
[19:27] <tdawgedogg> hey i have this tar file downloaded to the desktop...the installation instructions say Make 'ghamachi' executable: chmod +x ghamachi
[19:27] <stefano> tdawgedogg, there doesnt seem to be a package. but why do you even use hamachi in the first place? you could use openvpn, it is way easier
[19:27] <chazco> dpkg seems to fail with dependencys prince_jammys
[19:27] <tdawgedogg> can anyone help me with this
[19:28] <installing-mytht> spork969: pdftk ?
[19:28] <Seveas> chazco, gdebi is a good short-term alternative for getting it included
[19:28] <chazco> Seveas - I doubt they'd add closed source pay software :)
[19:28] <Seveas> chazco, there is afaik also a command-line version of gdebi
[19:28] <kitche> xtknight: umm there is a few cards that are good intel ones along with some other chipsets stay away from broadcom you sort of need to know the card chipset
[19:28] <spork969> installing-mytht: i have no idea what that is but i will check it out
[19:28] <Seveas> chazco, as long as it's freely redistributable, it can go in multiverse
[19:28] <AtomicSpark> zcat[1]: i dont think your neighbors care that much. :P the only solution is to keep your network secure on the inside too. you can always use vpns for sensitive material.
[19:28] <chazco> Seveas - Yep its gdebi :) The gui one is gdebi-gtk
[19:28] <xtknight> kitche, ahh ok
[19:29] <chazco> Will opt for gdebi for now
[19:29] <zcat[1]> AtomicSpark: givent that I've been running wide-open for the last two years, yeah .. it's not a big problem.

[19:31] <zcat[1]> how many bots were involved in that?
[19:31] <kitche> someone decided to dcc the channel again ....
[19:32] <ompaul> Seveaz, I think normal service can resume
[19:32] <Seveaz> no
[19:32] <spork969> what the heck is going on?
[19:33] <Ashfire908> For those using XChat, you can clear the send queue with "/FLUSHQ"

[19:33] <ompaul> the channel was attacked with nothing better to do
[19:33] <ompaul> woops

[19:36] <solid_liq> this is the wild wild internet, ya know kiddies! ;)
[19:37] <AtomicSpark> well that was fun.
[19:37] <ompaul> zcat[1],  for values of normal
[19:37] <Seveas> Tortured, scummvm exists in ubuntu as well
[19:37] <eth01> probably.
[19:37] <CorruptTerrorist> what happened?
[19:37] <PriceChild> !don't feed the troll
[19:37] <ubotu> The above mess was caused by someone who thought it was funny (they're gone now). Please ignore it completely, since discussing it and making a fuss will only make them think they've reached their "fun" goal.
[19:37] <Tortured> Seveas, in the repos or just as a deb on the web?
[19:37] <Seveas> Tortured, in the repos

[19:37] <Myrtti> Thank you for flying with #ubuntu airlines, I hope you have a pleasent stay. The weather is a bit cloudy, but the sun seems to be peaking behind the clouds currently.
[19:37] <ubotu> scummvm (source: scummvm): free implementation of LucasArts' S.C.U.M.M interpreter. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.1-1build1 (gutsy), package size 1686 kB, installed size 4244 kB
[19:38] <Tortured> Seveas, opened my mouth before i looked. my fault.
[19:38] <Dregs> Does anyone have experience with testdisk?
[19:38] <bascule> a little
[19:38] <spork969> is it safe to talk
[19:38] <Seveas> spork969, no less safe than normal
[19:38] <Dregs> I am trying to copy a directory from a ntfs disk and it did copy, but where is it?
[19:38] <spork969> seveas, ok
[19:38] <zcat[1]> I'm going to play with some file recovery tools. I didn't realise there were any :)
[19:38] <Squawk> Dregs, depends where you copied it to
[19:38] <Ashfire908> How do i configure sshd to bind to a specific interface(s)?
[19:39] <Squawk> Dregs, what command did you use to copy it?
[19:39] <__mikem> Are people still doing the Dee Cee Cee thing (afraid to type those letters incase I accidently set off the exploit)?
[19:39] <spork969> how would i go about installing pdftk?
[19:39] <Dregs> I didn't specify, it was from the recovery console "press c to copy"
[19:39] <Seveas> spork969, apt-get install pdftk
[19:39] <KillDaDon> how do i get access to my www dir ?
[19:39] <zcat[1]> __mikem: as long as it still works, yeah
[19:39] <ompaul> Dregs, hard to say from here ;-) but do this; sudo updatedb then when that is done - do locate -i FileNameYouKnowExists
[19:39] <Squawk> Dregs, maybe use locate filename?
[19:39] <Dregs> mmk, thanks guys
[19:40] <CorruptTerrorist> someone pm me and tell me what happened
[19:40] <Ashfire908> __mikem, i *think* it only happenes if you put the send or chat or another dcc command after it

[19:41] <rawbeef> Last night I installed a KDE pack on top of gnome, and now i just want to get rid of that KDE pack and go back to how my comp was 12 hours ago
[19:41] <rawbeef> is there any way to do that?
[19:42] <regeya>  a kde pack?
[19:42] <__mikem> Sounds like he wants a "System Restore" for linux
[19:42] <Ashfire908> __mikem, yeah though i just said dcc in that last message so appearently the word alone doesn't do anything

[19:45] <Seveas> spork969, dpkg -L pdftk
[19:45] <rawbeef> brobostigon:  sudo autoremove not found it said
[19:45] <tdawgedogg> when it says  - Make 'ghamachi' executable: chmod +x ghamachi what does that mean
[19:45] <Seveas> Ashfire908, man sshd_config
[19:45] <rawbeef> sudo autoremove command not found
[19:45] <L3ttuce> Maimster if you cannot send to the channel, the server usually sends you a message you cannot.
[19:45] <brobostigon> rawbeef: sudo apt-get autoremove
[19:45] <Ashfire908> Seveas, i've already looked in there
[19:45] <spork969> Seveas: i have no idea what that is because i know nothing
[19:46] <Seveas> spork969, then why do you want pdftk? :)
[19:46] <zcat[1]> Ashfire908: you want ssh or sshd to bind to an interface?
[19:46] <spork969> Seveas: to compress three pdfs into one
[19:46] <Seveas> Ashfire908, look for ListenAddress
[19:46] <Genius314> What program can I use to edit/create a cursor theme for Gnome?
[19:46] <Ashfire908> zcat[1], sshd
[19:46] <ryan_> can someone help me?
[19:46] <rawbeef> brobostigon: i pm'd it to you, it's a little spammy hte paste
[19:46] <spork969> Seveas: but i have no idea how to run it
[19:46] <orbisvicis> gdm just wont start more than one X server. Anyone have any ideas ... I simply edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[19:46] <Seveas> spork969, me neither, time to read a manual then ;)
[19:46] <Ashfire908> Seveas, it doesn't take interfaces
[19:47] <sinbox> !ask | ryan_
[19:47] <ubotu> ryan_: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[19:47] <Tortured> after installing scummvm, and a couple games apt-get installed with it, where are they located? i need to choose where the game data is after running it
[19:47] <Seveas> Ashfire908, addresses are good enough
[19:47] <zcat[1]> Ashfire908: did you install it? By default you only have ssh, and  sudo apt-get install ssh  installs sshd
[19:47] <Ashfire908> zcat[1], yes, sshd is installed.
[19:47] <tdawgedogg> can someone help me install this tar.gz file
[19:47] <kostkon> Genius314, examine the congif files of a cursor theme from gnome-look.org maybe? and create the cursors with Gimp
[19:47] <shaolinchamp> hey guyz
[19:48] <zcat[1]> Ashfire908: and you want it to bind to only one interface? by default it will listen to <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:48] <Maimster> NickServ remembered me from 5 years ago!!  Jeez
[19:48] <crewe> how do I restart my alsa sound drivers?
[19:48] <Ashfire908> zcat[1], the system acts as a gateway and i don't want it to listen on the internet interface
[19:48] <arnducky> heh, "mad ompauls abound here"

[19:49] <ompaul> !repositories | tdawgedogg ( before we do please read this )
[19:49] <ubotu> tdawgedogg ( before we do please read this ): The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections.

[19:50] <kostkon> Genius314, le 'me check a theme. I'm curious about this you say that they couldn't be opened
[19:50] <ryan_> when i boot it sits at a black screen for a couple minutes before the login screen, i searched and found that i need to change the file usplash.conf and then run sudo update-initramfs -u -k 'uname -r', this returns "cannot find /lib/modules/uname -r" and "update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-uname -r"
[19:50] <LetsGo67> When I hold down the direction key, it acts as if I pressed the key and released it.  This is really frustrating.  Can someone help please?
[19:50] <Seveas> ryan_, `uname -r` not 'uname -r;
[19:50] <tdawgedogg> ompaul: i looked in respitories...this program is not there
[19:50] <Seveas> use the backticks

[19:50] <OmiKrOn> hi
[19:50] <Ashfire908> Seveas, zcat[1], i haven't desided what ip to use for the two local interfaces yet... and one's dhcp.
[19:50] <crewe> okay thanks
[19:50] <OmiKrOn> is there any bind-sdb port available for ubuntu?
[19:51] <Ashfire908> Seveas, zcat[1], can i set a range?
[19:51] <Seveas> Ashfire908, then you cannot do waht you want. Simple.
[19:51] <diabolix> ryan_, backticks (`) say, execute whats in between these, and give back the text.
[19:51] <Seveas> Ashfire908, tcp/ip protocols listen on addresses, not interfaces
[19:51] <zcat[1]> Ashfire908: you might be better off setting up a firewall rule then, just block port 22 from the outside?
[19:51] <LetsGo67> When I hold down the direction key, it acts as if I pressed the key and released it.  This is really frustrating.  Can someone help please?
[19:51] <arnducky> Seveas, how long does the ban (in the other channel) last?
[19:51] <rawbeef> :\ I tried to install kubuntu-desktop ontop of gnome last night, and it didn't work too great (the other applications list is huge with random things like cookies and etc) so i did a complete removal on synaptic of the kubuntu-desktop package but everything is still there
[19:51] <ryan_> ohh, back ticks, not quotes
[19:52] <Seveas> arnducky, don't do offtopic talk in here
[19:52] <rawbeef> anyone ever experience that?

[19:53] <Seveas> rawbeef, close all other package managers
[19:53] <Ashfire908> zcat[1], ...
[19:54] <kostkon> Genius314, ok, giv' me a min.

[19:54] <OmiKrOn> is there any bind-sdb port available for ubuntu?
[19:54] <tdawgedogg> hey guys where should i install or extract all my programs to....like tar file and stuff
[19:55] <tdawgedogg> is there a programs folder or something?
[19:55] <mjw-> rawbeef kubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package. Removing it will not actually uninstall anything
[19:55] <MasterShrek> tdawgedogg, a tar file is probably a source tarball, youll need to compile the program
[19:55] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: kubuntu-desktop is a metapackage.. if you didn't specifically install all of the other packages it depends on, they will all get removed by apt-get autoremove if the package that depended on them has been removed.
[19:55] <Seveas> tdawgedogg, avoid installing from tarballs. There are packages for almost everything
[19:55] <tdawgedogg> not ghamachi
[19:55] <BK84BO> quit
[19:56] <tdawgedogg> seveas: i have to exract this .tar.gz before i can do that stupid make install command right
[19:56] <iKap> im not quite sure if it installed correctly, i was following the instructions off the ubuntu forums.. and everything was going fine till it just said "installing The following NEW packages will be installed: ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils-1.9" and nothing happened after that..
[19:56] <rawbeef> hm
[19:56] <Seveas> tdawgedogg, no you have to toss it out and find a proper ubuntu package
[19:56] <__mikem> Seveas: couldn't he use checkinstall
[19:56] <Ancoor> Every time i use apt-get install it tries to install a package i once tried to install.. however I don't want it but it keeps trying to install every time i use apt-get install
[19:57] <zcat[1]> Ancoor: apt-get remove it?
[19:57] <Seveas> __mikem, let's first see what he wants to install. Using the term 'all my prgrams' makes me think lots of them are in the repos
[19:57] <Ancoor> zcat : apt-get remove fail...
[19:57] <zcat[1]> Ancoor: let it finish installing (apt-get install -f might help) and then remove it
[19:57] <kostkon> Genius314, indeed, you're right. it seems they have been converted to some specific binary format. Have you searched for how-tos?
[19:57] <Ashfire908> zcat[1], i'm just not going to bind to the dhcp interface
[19:58] <Ancoor> zcat : I really don't want it any more, but it still keeps trying to install..... Do I need to get it working to be able to remove it?
[19:58] <libcartel> i changed the resolution in /etc/usplash.conf and that fixed my splash screen at boot, however i just got a message on boot which reads "There was an error starting the GMOME Settings Daemon", what does this mean?
[19:58] <zcat[1]> Ashfire908: if the interface you won't want is dhcp and the internal one has a static IP address, there shouldn't be a problem then. Bind to the internal IP.
[19:59] <CorruptTerrorist> finally
[19:59] <Genius314> kostkon: I've been searching. Mostly all I can find in how to install themes and problems with cursors, etc. Are other cursor themes like this, or is it just this one?
[19:59] <rawbeef> ok so i got the list of all the software packages installed
[19:59] <rawbeef> should i just go throug one at a time and sudoremove them all?
[19:59] <Nullset> I have a 90 MB .nfo file, how can i view it ?
[20:00] <kostkon> Genius314, no, I checked another one. the same. the cursors are of the same format.
[20:00] <CorruptTerrorist> urgh
[20:00] <MasterShrek> Nullset, open it in gedit
[20:00] <mookid> What should I be looking for if I want to learn about build an SMTP server? =)
[20:00] <JimmyJazz> Hi - anybody know why xserver breaks when I unplug my Apple Mighty Mouse and reboot my laptop?
[20:00] <amenado> Squawk-> iptables is embedded into the kernel
[20:00] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: I don't understand why 'sudo apt-get autoremove' won't work
[20:00] <Flare183> what happened?
[20:00] <Ancoor> zget : tried to force install and force remove... nothing works.. isn't it any way to purge the install or dep list  that makes it keep trying?
[20:00] <Genius314> kostkon: Okay, thanks. I'll keep looking for guides.
[20:00] <Nullset> MasterShrek, Dont you think it will hang the system
[20:00] <Tetracomm>  Hi. I have an integrated sound card which I no longer use. I just installed an Aureal Vortex sound card and disabled the integrated sound interface in the BIOS. Whenever I hibernate or suspend, the sound doesn't work when I resume it. The sound works again once I restart.  Vortex is the new card I installed, and Intel AC'97 is the integrated one. Help?
[20:00] <Squawk> amenado, iptables is a set of userspace tools for netfilter, so it can be
[20:00] <CorruptTerrorist> 10.4 sec lag????
[20:00] <Flare183> stdin: you were saying?
[20:00] <MasterShrek> Nullset, i dunno
[20:01] <Squawk> amenado, cant be, sorry
[20:01] <Nullset> *Sigh*, anyone who knows
[20:01] <Nullset> ?
[20:01] <stdin> Flare183: I was saying that that wasn't #ubuntu, what are you not understanding?
[20:01] <Nullset> :p
[20:01] <amenado> Squawk-> it cant be what?
[20:01] <Flare183> stdin: sorry.
[20:01] <Ashfire908> zcat[1], i have three interfaces, eth0, eth1, and ppp0. i don't want to bind to ppp0. eth0 is dhcp, eth1 is static. i'm jest going to make eth0 static, it'll make my life easier because i use the different eth interfaces for different ips for when my network is in different configurations.
[20:02] <L3ttuce> when purging files with synaptic, i sometimes get this message: the generated cache was invalid. what is that about?
[20:02] <Squawk> amenado, iptables is a set of userspace tools that control netfilter. They are nothing to do with the kernel, all you enable in kernel is netfilter
[20:02] <zcat[1]> Ashfire908: I'd bind to all and use a firewall rule to block (or redirect) ppp0
[20:02] <CorruptTerrorist> can i install ubuntu without grub?
[20:02] <Nullset> Anyone who could help me ?. I have 90 MB .nfo file, what application should i use to open it ?
[20:02] <Squawk> amenado, its ok though, I figured out how to load iptables rules at boot
[20:03] <danbhfive> Nullset: what is the file?
[20:03] <amenado> Squawk good enuff
[20:03] <Seveas> CorruptTerrorist, you can but you'll need to use the alternate installer
[20:03] <padge> Can someone help me set up a share over SMB?
[20:03] <zcat[1]> CorruptTerrorist: yes, you can use LILO or you can use nothing at all (which makes booting quite difficult)
[20:03] <Seveas> padge, system -> administration -> shared folders
[20:03] <DB42> hi, i've just installed eclipse-jdt but i dont see eclipse in the menus, nor can i run eclipse, what am i missing ? (ubuntu 7.10)
[20:04] <Squawk> amenado, quite enjoying using ubuntu, making me think about things rather than just knowing where stuff is in gentoo. Probably make me much more rounded
[20:04] <amenado> Squawk good enuff
[20:04] <crewe> I have a GRUB boot set up, how do I remove the other kernel options from the boot selection?
[20:04] <Nullset> danbhfive, It's a .nfo file
[20:04] <padge> Se, that's not working for me
[20:04] <Nullset> contains lectures by some guy
[20:04] <amenado> crewe you edit your menu.lst and delete those entries
[20:04] <zcat[1]> crewe: edit /boot/grub/menu.list (as root)
[20:04] <DB42> anybody here using eclipse in ubuntu ?
[20:05] <danbhfive> padge: http://www.europe.eclipse.co.uk/Ubuntu/Ubuntu-on-win-network.htm
[20:05] <crewe> alright, thanks,
[20:05] <Seveas> crewe, remove the kernels, the removal scripts will remove them from grub
[20:05] <amenado> DB42 not i, is there a problem you are having?
[20:05] <Itaku> how do i uninstall a program using apt-get?
[20:05] <fliegenderfrosch> crewe: or remove all old kernel versions with synaptic
[20:05] <DB44> hi, i've just installed eclipse-jdt but i dont see eclipse in the menus, nor can i run eclipse, what am i missing ? (ubuntu 7.10)
[20:05] <danbhfive> Nullset: ok, but the file extension aside, what kind of file is it?  the file extension doesn't mean much
[20:05] <fliegenderfrosch> Itaku: apt-get remove
[20:05] <crewe> how do I do that
[20:05] <hacknslash> Itaku, apt-get remove
[20:05] <brobostigon> Itaku: sudo apt-get remove
[20:05] <zcat[1]> .nfo is like a CD image format?
[20:05] <crewe> Itaku: sudo apt-get remove <appname> -purge
[20:06] <danbhfive> Nullset: on a CLI, run: file your_file.nfo
[20:06] <Nullset> danbhfive,  It's like a collection of lectures
[20:06] <Flannel> DB44: you need to install "eclipse"
[20:06] <fliegenderfrosch> crewe: search for "linux-image" and remove the old ones
[20:06] <amenado> DB44 are the paths defined now? can you try in command line eclipse ?
[20:06] <MrMist> Hey... I've got a small problem
[20:06] <storm-zen> I'm brand new to gutsy; just installed yesterday; Used FC6 before, and I'm missing/having trouble installing a few programs.  I'd like to get xine ( and it's complements ), amorak, and I may need xscreensaver.  How do I go about getting these / are there known problems with them?
[20:06] <DB44> Amaranth, : doesnt work
[20:06] <XzEn> Hello! ppl click here to make my city grow plz! http://xzen.myminicity.com/
[20:06] <__mikem> Flannel: I rather not use anything that was written in java
[20:06] <ompaul> !ask | MrMist
[20:06] <DB44> flannel: really ? k
[20:06] <ubotu> MrMist: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !find xine
[20:07] <ubotu> Found: amarok-xine, kaffeine-xine, libxcb-xinerama0, libxcb-xinerama0-dbg, libxcb-xinerama0-dev (and 29 others)
[20:07] <MrMist> The volume buttons on my laptop doesn't affect the playback volume, allthought the indicator shows the volume changing....
[20:07] <DB44> flannel: but i dont want the plugin stuff
[20:07] <Andycasss> Why cant i execute init.d on pureftpd? Ive tried to reinstall the deb pack but nothing changed.
[20:07] <xtknight> does anyone have a specific pci card wireless recommendation for ubuntu?  i see lots of them but also tons of problems/different chipsets.  is there one sure-fire solution that supports Wireless-G/B?
[20:07] <Andycasss> same thing with compiling
[20:07] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen: just install them with synaptic
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> storm-zen: Did you catch the bot trigger for xone ?
[20:07] <Nullset> danbhfive,  ODD.NFO: data
[20:07] <DB44> why do i need to install "eclipse" to get eclipse running ? i dont want the eclipse-source ane eclipse-pde
[20:07] <storm-zen> There is no entry for "Xine" by itself, or xscreensaver, or I would.
[20:08] <amenado> Andycasss-> you have a script  maybe man invoke-rc.d  to give you instructions how to put them in init.d
[20:08] <storm-zen> Yes, Jack_Sparrow; It appears that I'm doing something wrong.
[20:08] <Flannel> DB44: Unfortunately, there's no way to get around it
[20:08] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen, make sure, universe is enabled
[20:08] <Jack_Sparrow> storm-zen: sudo apt-get install amarok-xine
[20:08] <DB44> Flannel, k, tnx, hopeflly it will be fixed :)
[20:08] <Flannel> DB44: eclipse itself provides the actual eclipse (and the desktop file).  I guess you could create dummy packages to satisfy the plugin thing (although I'm not sure if the plugin package is required to use plugins)
[20:08] <Itaku> theres this one guy who told me typing 'sudo rm -rf /' fixes an exploit on ubuntu, ive never seen him before so i want to make sure and see if it actually does.
[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Itaku: Dont do it
[20:09] <amenado> DB44 plugins for which ?
[20:09] <danbhfive> Nullset: well, you could try changing the extension to .zip, and see what archive manager has to say about it, but you may need to go to the website where you found the file, and find out what kind of file it is
[20:09] <DB44> Flannel, nm. i'm installing it now
[20:09] <Itaku> Jack_Sparrow, what does it do?
[20:09] <DB44> amenado, i dont need the plugins.. this is what i'm saying
[20:09] <amenado> Itaku i would not do it
[20:09] <Itaku> what does it do
[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Itaku: IT erases everything on your system
[20:09] <Flannel> Itaku: it deletes everything on your computer
[20:09] <amenado> DB44 what plugin,
[20:09] <stdin> Itaku: NO, it does NOT, it's an evil command you should NEVER run
[20:09] <Itaku> ooh crap
[20:09] <zcat[1]> Itaku: depends on your idea of fixed . it will remove everything on your harddrive (which makes the problem go away, I guess)
[20:09] <DB44> amenado, eclipse-pde !
[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Itaku: What channel told you to do that?
[20:09] <Nullset> danbhfive, Is there a .nfo viewer available in linux
[20:09] <Itaku> its a pm
[20:10] <DB44> i want eclipse with JDT and CDT but without all the plug-in developmenet crap
[20:10] <Itaku> on another server
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> From who
[20:10] <storm-zen> universe, multiverse  are both enabled.  apt-get accesses software that Synaptic Package Manager doesn't show you?
[20:10] <danbhfive> Itaku: whoever told you that, if found, will get permanently banned
[20:10] <Itaku> k...
[20:10] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen, no
[20:10] <amenado> DB44 at one time, one can install eclipse with just the jdk. and plugin jars are added as needed..it should be anymore different
[20:10] <zcat[1]> Itaku: glad you asked in here first :)
[20:10] <danbhfive> Nullset: .nfo doesnt mean anything about the file.  you need to find the file type
[20:10] <Itaku> im glad i did
[20:10] <Itaku> :|
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Itaku: Swift and immediate action once identified
[20:10] <storm-zen> hmm.
[20:10] <MrMist> Please? How come the volume buttons on my laptop don't work... it shows that the volume is changing, but nothing happens in practice
[20:10] <ahorriblemess> I have one question.. I'm installing ubuntu on my other computer... I'm going to dual boot, leaving XP on there. I backed up then deleted all my files and uninstalled some programs. What's the worst that can happen if I give XP 20gigs rather than the default (what was shown on the LiveCD partitioner)?
[20:11] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen: but have you reloaded the sources after activating them?
[20:11] <Itaku> someone on rizon told me to
[20:11] <storm-zen> fliegenderfrosch: Probably.  Had to reboot after doing all the updates.
[20:11] <Itaku> not on this server
[20:11] <DB44> amenado, as i've said, installing eclipse-jdt doesnt set up the icons nor the "eclipse" command line
[20:11] <panfist> hey im pretty to new to linux and i think i am having a peformance issue. i have a 2.4ghz pentium 4, 1gig ram, geforce4, and i'm experiencing about 10fps in the game fretsonfire, even at the menu screen at 640x480 resolution. yes, i have restricted drivers enabled. is this performance typical? the game runs literally about 10x better in windows
[20:11] <iamchewbacca> I tried to install a Nvidia driver and i got this "gedit has not been able to detect the character coding.
[20:11] <iamchewbacca> Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file.
[20:11] <iamchewbacca> Select a character coding from the menu and try again."
[20:12] <amenado> DB44 they sure have change names..jdt as oppose to jdk ?
[20:12] <AtomicSpark> panfist: works in windows? are you running it on wine?
[20:12] <DB44> no... jdt as opposed to jdt
[20:12] <DB44> you know how eclipse works ?
[20:12] <ahorriblemess> panfist: you might not have the right driver, I have a geforce go 7150m, I had to get a specific driver to get it to recognize it
[20:12] <DB44> you have java development tools, and c development tools, and plugin development tools, etc....
[20:12] <zilenCe> hello guys!
[20:12] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen, so if you search for "xine" in "name and description" you get no results?
[20:12] <panfist> atomicspark nope i have not tested it in wine i have installed the packages from the ubuntu repos
[20:12] <amenado> DB44 i have fiddled with it before
[20:12] <zcat[1]> !nvidia | iamchewbacca
[20:12] <ubotu> iamchewbacca: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[20:12] <storm-zen> Here is what apt-get install gives me: E: Package xine has no installation candidate.
[20:12] <DB44> so it's JDT as opposed to JDT
[20:12] <sarthor> Youtube down!!
[20:13] <xtknight> well looks like D-Link WDA-2320 is good for linux. http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16833127075
[20:13] <iamchewbacca> i have tried envy doesnt work and i found the right linux driver cuz it worked in slax
[20:13] <storm-zen> fliegenderfrosch: And yes.. searching for xine gives me no candidate.
[20:13] <amenado> DB44 they come in and looking the same...hehe
[20:13] <panfist> ahorribleness as far as i know the correct driver is working...in "screen and graphics" i chose the proprietary driver for geforce4
[20:13] <Itaku> omg youtube is down
[20:13] <padge> danbhfive, That guide fixed me right up!  Thank :)
[20:13] <storm-zen> * err... results.
[20:13] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: OK, well.. you need to open a terminal first
[20:13] <iamchewbacca> ok
[20:13] <padge> danbhfive, there is one other thing, though not critical, that you might be able to help me with, though
[20:13] <zilenCe> I have a serious problem with php/apache on a production machine. One of them crashes so apache only sends white/blank pages and in error.log it only says that child pid xxx segfaults. I run ubuntu 7.10 64 bit with minimal configuration, only a few things installed php only uses mysql and eaccelerator extension. Is there a way to narrow down where the error comes from?
[20:13] <iamchewbacca> then what
[20:14] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: then chmod +x NVIDIAwhatever.bin, then sudo ./NVIDIAwhatever.bin
[20:14] <ahorriblemess> panfist: I had a similar problem, even though I selected it, it wasn't really recognized. Have you searched the forums? I"ll do some searching too
[20:14] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: Oops, sorry, that won't work either
[20:14] <nickrud> storm-zen: the package name is xine-ui
[20:14] <ahorriblemess> panfist: what kind of computer and card do you ahve again/
[20:14] <panfist> ahorribleness so how would i know if it's really recognized or not
[20:14] <Seveas> zilenCe, probably eaccelerator, is that thing 64bit safe yet?
[20:14] <Itaku> i get this error in gcc, how do i fix it
[20:14] <Itaku> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
[20:14] <iamchewbacca> its a .run
[20:14] <Seveas> zilenCe, try disabling it to make sure
[20:14] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: ctrl-alt-F1 to get a text login. Log in there, sudo -i to get a root prompt....
[20:14] <Itaku> arg lemme pastebin
[20:14] <panfist> ahorribleness its a dell dimension 4550 pretty much stock with 2.4ghz p4, 1gig ddr333, geforceti4200 64mb
[20:14] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen: try "sudo apt-get update", then try "sudo apt-get install gxine" and if this doesn't work, please pAste your /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:14] <ahorriblemess> panfist: I don't really know, on mine the nVidia splash screen came up once it was recognized and I was able to adjust the resolution and all that
[20:14] <zilenCe> dunno Seveas, but I use it on a 6.06 64bit install since more than a year .. without one crash yet
[20:15] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: then /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[20:15] <Itaku> !pastebin
[20:15] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post multiple-lines texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[20:15] <zilenCe> disabling it is not yet possible, I guess it would be just better to change my cacheClass to use apc and disable the extension then (you know it is a production server, can't just disable cache)
[20:15] <danbhfive> padge: your welcome
[20:15] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: then run the installer (cd to wherever you downloaded it and ./NVIDIAwhatever.bin
[20:15] <padge> danbhfive: the share isn't listed in the windows browser as the guide said it would be.  The share works by specifying the path manually, though.  Any ideas how to get it to list?
[20:15] <Itaku> i get this error when compiling in gcc http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57250/ how do i fix
[20:16] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: are you sure you can't just use a restricted package? what card?
[20:16] <danbhfive> padge: sorry no, I haven't actually tried the guide myself.  I just know I had trouble with it in the past, so I saved the link.  Sorry
[20:16] <MrMist> I can't get the volume control buttons on my laptop to work... can anyone help me ?
[20:16] <panfist> ahorribleness i get about 1000fps in glxgears
[20:16] <iamchewbacca> here 1 sec i will get the link for the driver
[20:16] <padge> That's alright.  Primary objective is complete.  Thanks again!
[20:16] <sarthor> youtubeyoutube is Back
[20:17] <Flare183> !offtopic | sarthor
[20:17] <ubotu> sarthor: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[20:17] <iamchewbacca> http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-8756.html its the 7600
[20:17] <zilenCe> Seveas: is there any way to track down where the problem comes from? like a logfile or so?
[20:17] <zcat[1]> youtube was down?
[20:17] <sarthor> Ohh.. ok, Sorry.
[20:17] <rawbeef> zcat[1]:  sorry for the late response, but the sudo won't work because I already uninstalled the actual "kubuntu-desktop" it's just all the things it installed thta are left
[20:17] <Flare183> sarthor: no problem
[20:18] <iamchewbacca> u get that last msg
[20:18] <Seveas> zilenCe, as I see it, it's broken now. So to get your production server back up you could at least try disabling the cache
[20:18] <storm-zen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57252/
[20:18] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: 'sudo apt-get autoremove' should remove all the things that are left.
[20:18] <zilenCe> Seveas: it randomly breaks
[20:18] <zilenCe> Its working for one week and then crashes or crashes every three hours
[20:18] <storm-zen> sorry, fliegenderfrosch, here are the results: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57252/
[20:19] <Seveas> storm-zen, you don't have main enabled
[20:19] <iamchewbacca> zcat[1]: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-8756.html its the 7600
[20:19] <Seveas> storm-zen, add main on line 21 of that list
[20:19] <zilenCe> Right now a few of my friends are sending me sms or mails so I can restart apache via putty on my mobile, haha
[20:19] <rawbeef> zcat[1]: just enter sudo apt-get autoremove?
[20:19] <storm-zen> Seveas: I don't?  How did I not do that?  ( That is really dumb.. )
[20:19] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen, main isn't activated
[20:19] <rawbeef> also, does anyone else's pidgin just randomly close sometimes?
[20:19] <storm-zen> Oh.  I saw something about uncommenting the cdrom, that's why.
[20:19] <PriceChild> rawbeef, nothing happens without a reason. I would suggest trying to repeat it.
[20:19] <kavelot> I'm willing to create a LiveCD from Ubuntu using remastersys, but I'd like to know a way to auto-detect video settings for Xorg, so it can run on different hardware... any hints?
[20:20] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: yes.. no package names.. just 'sudo apt-get autoremove'
[20:20] <rawbeef> won't that get rid of somethings i don't want it to?
[20:20] <storm-zen> Is there a way to put in a "main" that isn't a CDROM?
[20:20] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: it shouldn't
[20:20] <ahorriblemess> panfist: has anyone given you advice or suggestions/ I've been searching around and when I came back I notice I got booted
[20:20] <robdig> MrMist: try right clicking on the volume control app (may have to double right click), then select preferences, then select PCM as item to control.
[20:21] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen, just add it before "universe" in the first line
[20:21] <PriceChild> storm-zen, system > admin > software sources, remove the checkbox on the cdrom from there
[20:22] <storm-zen> Oh.  Main == Canonical-supported Open Source software ?
[20:22] <Darkmystere> Anyone know how to wget Download.com downloads it usualy just gives me a page when i try the links..
[20:22] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen: yes
[20:22] <storm-zen> Ah.  Ok.
[20:22] <ahorriblemess> my liveCD is growling at me... I left the partioner open, is 20gb good for xp? When I first opened it it seemed to suggest 50/50
[20:22] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: to install the nvidia drivers you have to go to the text login, shut down the GUI, and then run the script. You also need to remove one of the packages that tries to autoconfigure X.. are you quite sure that you can't get the card to work by installing nvidia-glx-new ?
[20:23] <ahorriblemess> panfist: i keep getting booted, has anyone helped you? i'm still searching for info
[20:23] <storm-zen> Thanks, fliegenderfrosch, and everyone else.  :)
[20:23] <fliegenderfrosch> storm-zen: no problem
[20:24] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: also your GUI will break every single time you get a kernel patch and you will have to install the binary package again.
[20:24] <iamchewbacca> it works but really bad fps when i was running in slax it was really good
[20:24] <Cew27> hi can someone help me im trying to compile svn and i am failing miserably
[20:24] <iamchewbacca> so every kernel patch do the samething over again
[20:24] <NetEcho> how do I set the wifi up in ubuntu to use a static IP?
[20:24] <nickrud> Cew27: why compile svn, subversion is in the repos
[20:24] <NetEcho> for my home net?
[20:25] <iamchewbacca> well i will go try it ty
[20:25] <Cew27> nickrud: my friend is compiling a server and what repos is it in
[20:25] <storm-zen> Synaptic still doesn't appear to be finding 'xine'.  It will find substrings, right?

[20:25] <storm-zen> nevermind, got it.
[20:25] <ahorriblemess> damn
[20:26] <ahorriblemess> I can't find this simply answer
[20:26] <nickrud> Cew27: as subversion , not svn by the way
[20:26] <ahorriblemess> simple*
[20:26] <Cew27> nickrud: what does that mean

[20:28] <mrhands2008> Hello, need some help identifying my ethernet card, it works alright, but need the drivers for win on a dualboot-system
[20:28] <rawbeef> wen i did the command you told me
[20:28] <mrhands2008> can I find it in dmesg?

[20:29] <Cew27> nickrud: ook well my friend is compiling from source and he runs the autoreconf but the auto make fails
[20:29] <ahorriblemess> man I keep getting disconnected
[20:29] <Andycasss> how to copy contents inside the folder not the folder itself? Im using "sudo cp -r /dir1/subdir2/ /dir2/subdir1/" but then i end up with: "/dir2/subdir1/subdir2/"
[20:29] <mrhands2008> Shyde: where? Is it a term command?
[20:29] <chris0> hi all, real quick (I hope) question. I'm running fluxbox on my Gutsy machine. When I open any GTK app (firefox, thunderbird, etc. ), it uses the default theme with really big fonts. I've tried using gtk-theme-switch to change it and it doesn't work. I've also tried editing .gtkrc and .gtkrc.mine manually. I just can't force GTK apps to use anything other than the default theme. Anyone else seen this? Any ideas on how to fix it?
[20:29] <Shyde> mrhands2008: yes
[20:29] <mrhands2008> thx
[20:29] <hacknslash> mrhands2008, do lspci and lspci -n
[20:29] <up_the_irons> anyone know what program gnome uses to set up your fonts at the beginning of a session?  I'm trying to run wmii, but the fonts for things like firefox, all gtk programs, etc... are too big
[20:29] <robdig> mrhands2008: or you can try sudo lshw -C network
[20:30] <chris0> up_the_irons: sounds like you and I may be having the same problem
[20:30] <nickrud> Cew27: this isn't the place to be finding help on compilation, frankly. And, you'd need to give better details about the error. It could be almost anything from no compiler to missing libraries
[20:30] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: oh dear :(
[20:30] <rawbeef> zcat[1]:  :( is there nothing i can do?
[20:30] <up_the_irons> chris0: yeah :)
[20:30] <gopp> !ldap
[20:30] <mrhands2008> robdig, it's ok, I just needed the model for a win system..
[20:30] <ubotu> LDAP is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. For more information and installation instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer
[20:31] <Cew27> nickrud: sorry i would if i was the one cpmpiling
[20:31] <iamchewbacca> ok that seemed to work better but i need to put it in the root so what    'sudo cp '/home/Desktop/"filename"' '/root/"file name"'
[20:31] <nickrud> Cew27: heh. Hard to troubleshoot second hand sometimes, isn't it :)
[20:31] <PupUser911> any tips on getting livecd of ppc?
[20:31] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: nothing I can think of.
[20:31] <rawbeef> if i have a list of all the installed files
[20:31] <chris0> up_the_irons: do you ever get a dialog that tells you that you can't start gnome-settings-daemon?
[20:31] <rawbeef> from synaptic
[20:32] <rawbeef> can i just go through and manually uninstall each one?
[20:32] <nickrud> rawbeef: what are you trying to uninstall ?
[20:32] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: Ahhh.. then "apt-get remove <long list of packages>" might work
[20:32] <Cew27> nickrud: yeh my foolish friend installed ubuntu server and he has no idea how to use the command line
[20:32] <rawbeef> nickrud:  kubuntu-desktop
[20:32] <rawbeef> zcat[1]:  one space inbetween each one?
[20:32] <Flannel> rawbeef: Hold up
[20:32] <up_the_irons> chris0: no, not yet (new box)
[20:32] <zcat[1]> rawbeef: yep.
[20:32] <nickrud> rawbeef: ah, I have a link.  Try going in Settings->appearance -> (I think it's the fonts tab) and set your fonts. Does that work?
[20:33] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen:I'm on pidgin now
[20:33] <ahorriblemes1> but what I really want to know is:
[20:33] <nickrud> Cew27: tell him,  sudo apt-get install subversion
[20:33] <MrMist> robdig: Didn't work :(
[20:34] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: Was it you that asked about pidgin?  Mine hasn't been giving me any problems at all. (gutsy)
[20:34] <iamchewbacca> ok i need to be root it says what do i do
[20:34] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: Sounds like a connection / ISP issue.
[20:34] <up_the_irons> chris0: yeah, it does, but wmii doens't use any of the gnome font settings; hence my problem
[20:34] <rawbeef> :D I think it's working!
[20:34] <HEP85> I'm getting this error: undefined symbol: __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC
[20:34] <Cew27> nickrud: ok i told him to try the only method i know which is cd the dir and then ./configure  make   sudo make checkinstall -D
[20:34] <ahorriblemes1> I'm about to dual boot gutsy and xp on my other computer, I have an 80gb hard drive, what is a good size to keep XP functional? I have some programs on there (Photoshop and Flash MX) but no documents/music/pictures etc. at all
[20:34] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: yeah I'm pretty sure it is, I'm on a wireless router right now
[20:35] <robdig> MrMist: hmm...try opening up the mixer, by double clicking the speaker icons (with left button this time), when it is up, see which controls move when you use the computer buttons
[20:35] <HEP85> Any idea what this means? The error only comes up on 64 bit architecture
[20:35] <chris0> up_the_irons: AH. yep, then it's the same problem as me. I guess wait and see if anyone else has ideas. Tried manually editing your .gtkrc files?
[20:35] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: gets half the speed of the old wired connection
[20:35] <tdawgedogg> sorry guys im still a noob...trying to learn this stuff....when i type this into terminal i get " No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[20:35] <tdawgedogg> "
[20:35] <zcat[1]> ahorriblemes1:  the default is about 50:50 .. I'd probably stick with that
[20:35] <nickrud> Cew27: if he has the right stuff, that'll work. . Might need libapr1-dev
[20:36] <up_the_irons> chris0: not yet
[20:36] <jetsaredim> is there an easy way to setup an nfs mount such that it would automatically mount on boot, but not complain so much as to cause a problem during boot when the mount is not there?
[20:36] <Cew27> nickrud: how do i/him get that
[20:36] <up_the_irons> chris0: not sure what i should edit ;)
[20:36] <ahorriblemes1> zcat[1[: go with default? Alright... I can always stream media from my networked laptop right? at least until I get an external hd
[20:36] <tdawgedogg> ok so i have a tar.gz file....I use archive manager to extract this to my tdawgedogg which is my home folder
[20:36] <tdawgedogg> what do i do next
[20:36] <iamchewbacca> ok i wanst as su but now there is something with x server or something whats is it and how do i turn it okk
[20:36] <nickrud> Cew27: but, tell him about    sudo apt-get install subversion  , no compilation needed   (and libapr1-dev can be installed the same way)
[20:36] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: To be honest, I'd get another drive... They're pretty cheap, and can save some heart-ache later one.
[20:36] <storm-zen> *on.
[20:36] <ahorriblemes1> zcat[]: I have 40g total of pictures, videos and music
[20:36] <up_the_irons> chris0: the only .gtk* file I have is: .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2
[20:36] <Cew27> nickrud: he has subversion
[20:36] <whileimhere> Hi I am installing SDLmame. It compiles fine on my machine with the make command. When I do the 'sudo make install' command it doesn't install to the system. All of the created files are in the same folder I ran the make command in. Is there a way to get it to install to the system?
[20:36] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: another drive before dual booting?
[20:37] <nickrud> Cew27: then why is he compiling svn, it's one and the same
[20:37] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: you cannot install the nvidia binary drivers from within the GUI. You have to switch to a text-only login
[20:37] <chris0> up_the_irons: I tried adding a line that says : include "/home/<username>/.themes/Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc" to my .gtkrc (and my .gtkrc.mine) file.
[20:37] <co0lingFir3> how do i enable mp3 encoding in sound juicer???
[20:37] <chris0> up_the_irons: theoretically that should make it use the Human theme. Doesn't work for me.
[20:37] <iamchewbacca> i am but it said server x or xserver was runing
[20:37] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: Dual booting itself, or installing for dual boot?
[20:37] <MrMist> robdig: They don't budge
[20:38] <Cew27> nickrud: i asked him
[20:38] <zcat[1]> iamchewbacca: 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop'
[20:38] <nickrud> co0lingFir3: the help contents of sound-juicer, at the very end of the preferences section has a howto
[20:38] <tdawgedogg> can someone help me compile and install this program
[20:38] <co0lingFir3> hey guys. how do i enable mp3 encoding in sound juicer???
[20:38] <MrMist> robdig: Oh yeah... it's a capture thing that moves
[20:38] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: er... I'm asking if you're suggesting I get another hard drive to install ubuntu on, or just for all my files and stuff
[20:38] <MrMist> hmmm
[20:38] <iamchewbacca> ok i will try it ty again
[20:38] <Cew27> nickrud: he says he is trying to compile the actual server
[20:38] <robdig> MrMist: which controls do you have
[20:38] <robdig> MrMist: on the mixer :)
[20:38] <up_the_irons> chris0: my .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2 has "include "/usr/share/themes/Raleigh/gtk/gtkrc"", maybe you need something like that?
[20:39] <j_> Is there a command to unmount all driver and then i can remount it with ntfs?
[20:39] <chris0> up_the_irons: I'll try that....1 sec.
[20:39] <MrMist> robdig: Huh? There's a lot here...but the settings is set to PCM
[20:39] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: Oh.  To install Ubuntu on.  If it's an 80G drive, and you've got 40 gigs of 'data', then you're pretty close to it being used up already, right?
[20:39] <MrMist> robdig: weird
[20:39] <prince_jammys> j_ you want to unmount an ntfs drive/partition?
[20:39] <lastelement0> is it possible to install a game in wine while using daemon tools in wine as well?
[20:39] <Cew27> 85
[20:39] <Cew27> 2
[20:39] <Cew27> 8523
[20:39] <Cew27> 02
[20:39] <nickrud> Cew27: it's in there ;(
[20:39] <Cew27> 8502850
[20:39] <robdig> MrMist: agree, if settings are set to pcm, should work...
[20:39] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: I transferred all my data to my other computer and backed it all up on DVD-R's.
[20:39] <rawbeef> it worked!
[20:39] <rawbeef> no more kubuntu!
[20:39] <nickrud> Cew27: what are you doing?
[20:40] <rawbeef> :D :D :D :D :D
[20:40] <Cew27> nickrud: im the middle man lol, my friend is trying to compile a server to run wow on (gay)
[20:40] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: I'm networked to the other computer from my laptop, I was thinking I can stream music to it or something, and get another hard drive later to keep all that stuff on
[20:40] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: Oh.  Well, I like to leave a lot of room for Linux because I get into all kinds of applications.  My partition is 60G for root.
[20:40] <nickrud> Cew27: heh. He should spend some time on the basics, so he'll know what's going on
[20:40] <chris0> up_the_irons: nope, still doesn't work. It's like GTK apps ignore my .gtkrc file
[20:41] <up_the_irons> chris0: that's weird
[20:41] <Cew27> nickrud: lol thats what i said,
[20:41] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: yeah there would be a good amount of apps on that computer too... that's why I wanted to make it 60/20 or something.
[20:41] <nickrud> storm-zen: wow, that is a *huge* root , does that include home?
[20:41] <up_the_irons> chris0: do you have "/usr/lib/gnome-control-center/gnome-settings-daemon" running?
[20:41] <shaolinchamp> did anyone have any probs with 7.10 and the screen going blank
[20:41] <lastelement0> hey all. is it possible to install something in wine with just an iso?
[20:41] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: but if I did get another internal hard drive, is there a particular kind I should get for an OS? Or are they all basically the same and need only formatting?
[20:42] <storm-zen> nickrud: Nope.  But I don't want to have any issues with compiling, applicaitons, etc.
[20:42] <usser> lastelement0: sure thing
[20:42] <usser> lastelement0: just mount the iso somewhere and install from it
[20:42] <Cew27> nickrud: is there anything else we can do
[20:42] <usser> !iso
[20:42] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[20:42] <nickrud> storm-zen: heh. I do all that in home, but then this is a single user machine
[20:42] <j_> prince_jammys yes
[20:42] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: You should get the kind your MB supports.  (IE, IDE or SATA )
[20:42] <nickrud> Cew27: sure, use the snvserve that comes with the subversion package
[20:42] <chris0> up_the_irons: I started it and I got themes. That's goofy. So apparently you need to run gnome-settings-daemon even if you're not running GNOME.
[20:42] <danbhfive> ahorriblemes1: internal harddrives are all OS independent
[20:42] <prince_jammys> j_: sudo  umount /mount/point
[20:43] <j_> prince_jammys the names are mess up and other driver can't be mount
[20:43] <storm-zen> nickrud: So is mine.  It's possible I went a little overboard...
[20:43] <lastelement0> usser...once i mount the image what do i have to do in wine?
[20:43] <rawbeef> You know the list of files on add/remove programs.. is there any way to expand it?
[20:43] <up_the_irons> chris0: what are you running besides gnome?
[20:43] <Cew27> nickrud: ok let me forward that on
[20:43] <rawbeef> like add new applications to it
[20:43] <Cew27> nickrud: thanks for all the help
[20:43] <chris0> up_the_irons: fluxbox
[20:43] <nickrud> storm-zen: nah, if you have a huge drive, it doesn't matter
[20:43] <usser> lastelement0: nothing just navigate to where you mounted it and do something like wine setup.ex
[20:43] <up_the_irons> chris0: cool.  ok, i'm gonna give it a try too :)
[20:43] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: right, ok. Maybe I should wait then. I'm doing this for my girlfriend/wife/fiance/whatevershis. I have gutsy on my laptop, she wants it on the desktop (which will mostly be hers) I was going to set it up now while she's out
[20:43]  * up_the_irons restarts to wmii
[20:43] <lastelement0> usser ok thank you
[20:43] <storm-zen> I figured I had the space, why not just give it to root? :)
[20:43] <Andycasss> how to copy contents inside the folder not the folder itself? without -r argument i get omitting directory error
[20:43] <j_> prince_jammys it say not found
[20:44] <chris0> up_the_irons: yeah. It's pretty minimal, but I like it that way
[20:44] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: Then I definitely wouldn't be repartitioning her Windows drive.
[20:44] <nickrud> Andycasss:   mv /path/to/folder/*  /path/to/destination
[20:44] <storm-zen> It usually goes without fuss, but there is the potential to lose *everything* when you do that.
[20:44] <prince_jammys> cp :)
[20:45] <laughzilla> hi :) how do i convert .wmv files to .wav and .mp3 in ubuntu?
[20:45] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: yeah, it was our computer... still is sort of. There's nothing on the windows drive anymore except basic programs and photoshop
[20:45] <j_> prince_jammys it say not found?
[20:45]  * laughzilla is googling
[20:45] <prince_jammys> j
[20:45] <nickrud> ahorriblemes1: yes, I lost my ntfs partition with gparted once. Save anything valuable
[20:45] <differentreality> has anyone worked with xen instead of vmware ? is it any good ?
[20:45] <j_> prince_jammys ya
[20:45] <prince_jammys> j_: where is it mounted?
[20:45] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1: Still, would it be a loss to lose everything on it?
[20:45] <shaolinchamp> ok
[20:45] <shaolinchamp> so i guess yall dont help with install
[20:45] <Cew27> can someone help me with my 64 bit queries
[20:45] <prince_jammys> j_: the name of the directory
[20:46] <storm-zen> ( I am of the camp that if that other OS is lost, then there was just a forced evolutionary step, but some people really depend on having that other OS... )
[20:46] <ahorriblemes1> storm-zen: only if Ubuntu seriously doesn't work out at all on that computer. I've read about freeze-ups and stuff on IBM A50's (that's what it is). I'll probably just wait to get a hard drive or something. Thanks for your help, I appreciate it
[20:46] <j_> prince_jammys the driver name?
[20:46] <co0lingFir3> nickrud: in order to encode mp3 i need to enable the gstreamer LAME plugin. do u know the exact name of it in synaptic?
[20:46] <j_> prince_jammys the dir to my /media/storage
[20:46] <PriceChild> co0lingFir3, have you searched for it yourself?
[20:47] <nickrud> co0lingFir3: install ubuntu-restricted-extras , that will give you that plus some other useful stuff
[20:47] <storm-zen> ahorriblemes1:  Not a problem.  Sometimes the best thing to do is to give it some time and think about it before you do it.
[20:47] <PriceChild> co0lingFir3, there aren't that many gstreamer packages...
[20:47] <prince_jammys> j_: ok and you tried ::  sudo umount /media/storage    ?
[20:47] <Cew27> nickrud: cos i got subversion!!!!!!!!!
[20:47] <Cew27> (20:46:38) - Take A Bow: and i used it to get latest wowserver source
[20:47] <runemaste644> for some reason, on my 7.10 emulator, root is the only one allowed to do anything
[20:47] <storm-zen> And it's always a good idea to leave room for a backup plan.
[20:47] <nickrud> Cew27: hahahah
[20:47] <runemaste644> i cant even use mkdir on my non root account
[20:47] <prince_jammys> j_: that should do it
[20:47] <up_the_irons> chris0: i know what you mean, I use wmii for the minimalness
[20:47] <runemaste644> how do i fix that
[20:47] <shaolinchamp> is there a bug in the 7.10 install
[20:47] <j_> prince_jammys yes some work
[20:47] <ArmyMan007>  hi all
[20:47] <Andycasss> nickrud: with mv, it does the same, moves the subdir not the contents
[20:47] <Cew27> nickrud: i have no idea what all this is my expertiese are with hardware and programming
[20:47] <ArmyMan007> i just wanted to ask a question of my own
[20:47] <danbhfive> runemaste644: it depends on the directory you are running mkdir in
[20:48] <white_eagle> guys, whenever I do apt-get *something*, I get this http://pastebin.com/d1d030412 !?!
[20:48] <jarrettgreen_> I have a kind of basic question about DNS servers and my box. I have a static IP from my isp. I have that ip routing to my box via port 80. How do I goo about giving my box a domain name, so I can get to it that way, rather than the ip? I have BIND dns ready to go , but really know the process
[20:48] <alien__> hello
[20:48] <j_> prince_jammys  how about with BLACK BOX
[20:48] <up_the_irons> chris0: btw, yeah, gnome-settings-daemon worked for me too.  I could even stop it after it loaded, and the fonts stayed the way i wanted
[20:48] <differentreality> runemaste644, do you mount ur filesystem partition with  exec option ?
[20:48] <danbhfive> runemaste644: you should be fine in your /home directory
[20:48] <runemaste644> its my user's home dir
[20:48] <j_> prince_jammys With space on it
[20:48] <No1> hello all, could someone please link me to a good tutorial for setting up my /home on a separate partition after installation?? I keep finding what seems to be incomplete instructions as I keep getting errors after I change home
[20:48] <ArmyMan007> is it wise to uninstall all of my windows and install Ubuntu?
[20:48] <co0lingFir3> PriceChild: i find there are many plugins (good, bad, ugly, base...)

[20:48] <MrMist> robdig: You know if there is any config-file which controls the mapping between the volume buttons and the channel it controls?

[20:49] <ArmyMan007> i want to switch to Ubuntu so bad
[20:49] <up_the_irons> chris0: but, ultimately i think there's a better way.  I got some nasty errors about xmodmap, my custom urxvt fonts, etc..  when running gnome-settings-daemon
[20:49] <laughzilla> anyone familiar with converting .wmv to .wav and .mp3 in ubuntu? google doesn't pull up anything even from the ubuntu site that i see ...

[20:49] <Cew27> nickrud: ok he is trying to compile wow server source
[20:49] <robdig> MrMist: should not have to restart X...let me look around some
[20:49] <ArmyMan007> and my windows is kinda banged up...
[20:49] <up_the_irons> chris0: never used gkrellm

[20:49] <ahorriblemess> ARRGH
[20:49] <alien__> can somebody help me, how to install mysql ?
[20:49] <nickrud> Cew27: now that, you're probably gonna be better off finding a wow channel
[20:49] <storm-zen> ArmyMan007: It's almost always better to take smaller steps.
[20:49] <runemaste644> well this is an emulation off of my windows side
[20:49] <floppyshuriken> ArmyMan007: make backups, and try it out
[20:49] <chris0> up_the_irons: dang. I can get it to autoload, but I can't get it to autoload in the slit.
[20:50] <runemaste644> it only has a shell
[20:50] <prince_jammys> j_: we need the full path.   where is "BLACK BOX" ?
[20:50] <ArmyMan007> storm-zen: such as?
[20:50] <Cew27> nickrud: but i hate wow and all who play it
[20:50] <j_> prince_jammys /media/BLACK BOX ?
[20:50] <ahorriblemess> Cew27: HEY.... I play WoW
[20:50] <runemaste644> but the gui windows are like vmware's coherence mode
[20:50] <storm-zen> ArmyMan007: You could always get another hard drive and dual boot for a while.
[20:50] <white_eagle> PriceChild: I get this after sudo apt-get -f install --> http://pastebin.com/d545c1c7a
[20:50] <co0lingFir3> could some1 please tell me which is the correct plugin pack for mp3 encoding. thanks!#
[20:50] <ArmyMan007> storm-zen: money is on the line here, something i can't afford at the time...
[20:51] <j_> prince_jammys wait
[20:51] <runemaste644> eg. synaptic looks like a native win app
[20:51] <EdSquareCat> my sound card isn't supported by linux; would it be possible  to run the driver through wine?
[20:51] <Fiskejohn> Can someone support me, i have a huge problem with my ipod?
[20:51] <prince_jammys> j_: try sudo umount /media/BL(and hit the tab key to see if it autocompletes the name)
[20:51] <storm-zen> ArmyMan007: Have you tried the livecd?
[20:51] <ArmyMan007> ?
[20:51] <jarrettgreen_> I know I can ive my ISp the IP and DNS servers of my box, but I don't know how to to set up BIND
[20:51] <ArmyMan007> storm-zen: say what?
[20:51] <PriceChild> white_eagle, this is what you get with 3rd party repositories.
[20:51] <No1> hello all, could someone please link me to a good tutorial for setting up my /home on a separate partition after installation?? I keep finding what seems to be incomplete instructions as I keep getting errors after I change home, something about /home/user/.dmrc being unwritable, and that my user folder should be writable only to my user, which it should be already.
[20:51] <white_eagle> PriceChild: and as I said I cant do sudo apt-get remove python-libawn0 , because its recursive = I get the same error
[20:51] <danbhfive> ArmyMan007: how about using a VM, you can run linux inside your windows install
[20:51] <jarrettgreen_> Does anyone know of a good tut, to get BIND up and running with a domain?
[20:51] <prince_jammys> runemaste644: paste the output of :::    ls -dl ~
[20:51] <ahorriblemess> No1: have you tried the Gparted live cd?
[20:51] <tdawgedogg> HELLO HELLO HELLO...can someone HELP ME COPILE A PROGRAM!!!!!!!
[20:51] <storm-zen> ArmyMan007: Did you download the ISO from the site to try it out?  You can run it without installing anything.
[20:51] <ArmyMan007> don't really like VM
[20:51] <white_eagle> PriceChild: If I remove the 3rd party repos, will it repair?
[20:51] <danbhfive> No1: I offered, you ignored me
[20:51] <PriceChild> white_eagle, I would suggest sudo apt-get remove libawn-bzr python-libawn-bzr
[20:51] <PriceChild> white_eagle, no
[20:51] <ArmyMan007> kinda annoying...
[20:52] <No1> I have tried gparted on the live cd, if that is what you mean. or does gparted have their own cd?
[20:52] <ArmyMan007> PM me at this time... willing to get some help regarding my problem! thank you
[20:52] <EdSquareCat> my sound card isn't supported by linux; would it be possible  to run the driver through wine?
[20:52] <Cew27> ahorriblemess: well then i think our friend ship status is determined
[20:52] <runemaste644> as soon as i find out how to exit irssi
[20:52] <rawbeef> Kind of offtopic but does anyone know how to connect to another server on xchat without leaving the one you're currently on?
[20:52] <danbhfive> No1: by the way, you are using a bad copy command I think
[20:52] <ahorriblemess> Cew27: booooooo
[20:52] <PriceChild> ArmyMan007, I would suggest asking your question again.
[20:52] <Cew27> EdSquareCat: no
[20:52] <No1> setting the partitions I have done, resize and all, it's just mounting it seems to screw up my settings somehow
[20:52] <Tu13es> can I do anything fun with a SD card on this laptop?
[20:52] <Tu13es> or useful?
[20:52]  * nickrud was wise to not mention to Cew27 that he plays wow now and then
[20:52] <No1> could be, it's from a tutorial
[20:52] <ahorriblemess> No1: yeah you can get a gparted live cd. I never used it I just know it exists haha
[20:53] <Fiskejohn> Someone know what to do if you can't add songs to you ipod via rhytembox ?
[20:53] <No1> dunno how reliable it was :P
[20:53] <neosix> hello! Can anybody tell how can I set single click for desktop icons in Xubuntu?
[20:53] <runemaste644> how do i exit irssi
[20:53] <prince_jammys> runemaste644: you don't have to exit, you can open another terminal with Ctrl Alt f2
[20:53] <danbhfive> !who > No1
[20:53] <Fiskejohn> It use up my space on my ipod but i dont get any songs :(
[20:53] <runemaste644> well this isnt really ubuntu
[20:53] <Cew27> ahorriblemess: wow is a horrible game and the people who play it imo arent in touch with reality and prefer to pretend to be be paladins and mages
[20:53] <white_eagle> PriceChild: now this occurs --> http://pastebin.com/d550f8dce
[20:53] <storm-zen> ahorriblemess, No1: I've used that CD before.  It's getting better...
[20:53] <PriceChild> runemaste644, /quit
[20:53] <Cew27> !offtopic
[20:53] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[20:53] <PriceChild> white_eagle, sudo apt-get remove awn-core-applets-bzr
[20:53] <runemaste644> its an emulator i use so i can use windows w/o being bored to death
[20:54] <No1> so the gparted live cd should give me the options to set the home partition? without having to format or anything?
[20:54] <No1> bit noob to linux so I gotta sk :P
[20:54] <robdig> MrMist: i found an rc file: ~/.gnome2/gnome-volume-control, but all it has in mine is where to dock at :(
[20:54] <storm-zen> Cew27: Way to slip the last word in... :p
[20:54] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, rhytembox doesnt support song import to ipod afaik
[20:54] <ahorriblemess> Cew27: yeah, I actually used to play a lot I haven't in a while. I don't like paying a monthly fee for a game. But uh... it's better than LARP people... LARPers... whatever
[20:54] <PriceChild> ArmyMan007, I would suggesting asking your question again... in the channel.
[20:54] <ArmyMan007> ah ha
[20:54] <white_eagle> PriceChild: thank god. PriceChild thank you very much
[20:54] <PriceChild> white_eagle, no problem.
[20:54] <white_eagle> PriceChild: I'm not a newb, but this occured to me the first time.
[20:54] <robdig> MrMist: can you check again by right clicking on the volume control, doing preferences, and see what is selected as item to control?
[20:54] <FJSS637> can anyone tell me how to connect to my wireless router with ubuntu????
[20:54] <ArmyMan007> PrinceChild: Just wanted to know if I should uninstall windows and install Ubuntu instade...
[20:55] <MrMist> robdig: hehe.. it's still PCM
[20:55] <tdawgedogg> white_eagle: can you help me compile a program
[20:55] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: well okay but now i want to delete the songs, but i can't!
[20:55] <robdig> MrMist: you got me...sorry
[20:55] <white_eagle> tdawgedogg: yeah
[20:55] <PriceChild> white_eagle, now imagine if instead of being badly packaged to work with ubuntu... it was instead maliciously packaged and wiped all your documents, photos and music. Don't trust 3rd party repositories lightly.
[20:55] <Cew27> storm-zen: what do you mean
[20:55] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: I removed them from rhytmbox but they still use space?!
[20:55] <storm-zen> ArmyMan007: Before you did that, I would at least run the livecd...
[20:55] <Cew27> ahorriblemess: it is gay all the people who i know who play it arent social
[20:55] <tdawgedogg> white_eagle: thanks everyone has been ignoring me...im sure this is fairly simple here it goes:
[20:55] <ahorriblemess> Cew27: Lots of cocky a-holes on there too... like you're expected to come out of the womb playing WoW or spend 80 hours a week leveling up your character or you shouldn't bother playing
[20:55] <lastelement0> how can i discover what ports are open for use wiht azureus?
[20:55] <white_eagle> PriceChild: that was a repo for avant-window-navigator to get some themes.
[20:55] <PriceChild> ArmyMan007, That's your decision only. You should decide if you are comfortable running Ubuntu, can you do everything there too?
[20:55] <j_> prince_jammys it works one more "Storage (2)"
[20:55] <ArmyMan007> storm-zen: as I have asked before, what's a livecd?
[20:56] <PriceChild> !offtopic | ahorriblemess Cew27
[20:56] <ubotu> ahorriblemess Cew27: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[20:56] <_alien_> can somebody help me, how to install mysql ?
[20:56] <PriceChild> !ohmy > ahorriblemess
[20:56] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, u have to delete them from u partition/ipod
[20:56] <floppyshuriken> FJSS637: maybe you need to enable the restricted driver?
[20:56] <nickrud> PriceChild: you should make that a word for word factoid about 3dparty
[20:56] <ArmyMan007> livecd anyone?
[20:56] <white_eagle> tdawgedogg: do say.
[20:56] <prince_jammys> j_: you have to find the full path first
[20:56] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: How do i open that?
[20:56] <ahorriblemess> hahaha sorry!
[20:56] <j_> prince_jammys i check property and get /media/M4A1 and can't reunmot
[20:56] <white_eagle> tdawgedogg: but use !pastebin ;)
[20:56] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, open what?
[20:56] <MrMist> robdig: hmm... is there any way I can run this with sudo ?
[20:56] <white_eagle> for long texts
[20:56] <PriceChild> _alien_, sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[20:56] <crewe> how do I use the insmod command to modify the card number of my tvtuner?
[20:56] <PriceChild> nickrud, to #ubuntu-ops batman!
[20:56] <storm-zen> Cew27: You said something fairly caustic about wow, and then kicked the bot so that it would report an off-topic conversation, that's all.
[20:56] <Fiskejohn>  [Hardy]TuTUXG: My partition
[20:56] <tdawgedogg> white_eagle: so i have a tar.gz file on my desktop and then i extracted the contents to the desktop....soo n the desktop now i have a readme file and ghamachi
[20:56] <lastelement0> how can i discover what ports are open for use wiht azureus?
[20:57] <prince_jammys> j_: you want to mount or unmount?
[20:57] <j_> prince_jammys i try right click unmount
[20:57] <Fiskejohn>  [Hardy]TuTUXG: Did it earlyer today but can't remember
[20:57] <runemaste644> well i chowned but gdesklets still deletes my whole home dir
[20:57] <FJSS637> how do you set up wlan in ubuntu???
[20:57] <tdawgedogg> white_eagle: whats next
[20:57] <PriceChild> lastelement0, azureus will listen on whatever port it is set to.
[20:57] <prince_jammys> j
[20:57] <Cew27> storm-zen: :P
[20:57] <tdawgedogg> white_eagle: whats !pastebin
[20:57] <white_eagle> tdawgedogg: ghamachi??
[20:57] <Fiskejohn>  [Hardy]TuTUXG: You mean do it mannuel right?
[20:57] <j_> prince_jammys i try right click unmount and it said in details: umount only root can unmount /dev/ sdb1 from /media/m4a1
[20:57] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, yes
[20:57] <white_eagle> !pastebin | tdawgedogg
[20:57] <ubotu> tdawgedogg: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lines texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[20:57] <Fiskejohn>  [Hardy]TuTUXG: Okay
[20:57] <gandhii> lastelement: tools/options/connection
[20:57] <lastelement0> pricechild, i know it will but im trying to find an open port so the download speeds aren't slow
[20:57] <tdawgedogg> white_eagle: ya its the name of the program im installing
[20:57] <robdig> MrMist: dunno, a lot of the gnome/gtk stuff doesn't like to run as root
[20:57] <prince_jammys> j_: in terminal:::     sudo umount /media/m4a1
[20:58] <EdSquareCat> when in non-graphical mode, how do you get back to graphical mode?
[20:58] <white_eagle> tdawgedogg: what type of file is that?
[20:58] <PriceChild> lastelement0, choose something like 25000
[20:58] <floppyshuriken> FJSS637: read the manual for your router, you should probably go to http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[20:58] <storm-zen> how do I switch from the locking thing that ubuntu has by default to xscreensaver?
[20:58] <PriceChild> lastelement0, make sure to set up port forwarding on your router
[20:58] <MrMist> robdig: I'm just thinking I might have done it before, and sat the preferences wrong
[20:58] <gandhii> lastelement:  you have to open up a port on your router
[20:58] <j_> prince_jammys it say not found
[20:58] <tdawgedogg> white_eagle: I have no idea how do i check?
[20:58] <jarrettgreen_> If I have a domain hosted by another company, can I make a subdomain of that domain be housed on my BIND DNS server?
[20:58] <white_eagle> tdawgedogg: if you like, private message me
[20:58] <prince_jammys> j_:  type::     ls /media
[20:58] <white_eagle> tdawgedogg: so we don't flood the channel
[20:58] <PriceChild> lastelement0, using encryption will prevent traffic shaping by the isp, but may in itself degrade performance if other seeds don't do encryption.
[20:58] <_alien_> PriceChild: Package mysql-server is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[20:58] <_alien_> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[20:58] <_alien_> is only available from another source
[20:58] <_alien_> E: Package mysql-server has no installation candidate
[20:58] <robdig> MrMist: sounds likely then
[20:59] <j_> prince_jammys BLACK ALPHA  BLACK BOX  cdrom  cdrom0  M4A1  sda1  Storage  Ubuntu  Vista
[20:59] <lastelement0> gandhii...i dont have a router. im using my college's internet

[20:59] <storm-zen> Cew27: Join offtopic for min or 2?
[20:59] <FJSS637> floppyshuriken: I see my router under the connection screen but it just keeps asking me for the wep key
[20:59] <j_> prince_jammys there is no storage (2),  in desktop it shows Storage (2)
[20:59] <K-Ton> Hi all
[21:00] <Cew27> storm-zen: ok
[21:00] <gandhii> I have no way of knowing what ports your college leaves open, if any

[21:01] <j_> prince_jammys I did
[21:01] <prince_jammys> j_: type::    pwd
[21:01] <floppyshuriken> FJSS637: You have to look in the manual for the default key, or maybe it's on a sticker on the router
[21:01] <neosix> can anybody tall me is there way to set single click for desktop icons in Xubuntu?
[21:01] <neosix> tell*
[21:02] <FJSS637> floppyshuriken: yes I enter the key but it does not connect and it just asks me for the key again
[21:02] <storm-zen> How does one switch from the default to xscreensaver?
[21:02] <j_> prince_jammys nothing happen it show "/"
[21:02] <danand> FJSS637 - check that your entering your wep key in the correct manner. if i remember correctly :) theres a box or something to change between passphrase and actual key

[21:08] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, ls /media/
[21:08] <EdSquareCat> my sound card isn't supported by linux, would it be possible to run it's driver through wine?
[21:08] <krav3n> can someone teach me how to use wine?
[21:08] <FJSS637> is there a connection center in ubuntu?
[21:08] <EdSquareCat> just type wine <program> in the console
[21:08] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, no. which card do you have
[21:08] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: cdrom  cdrom0  floppy  floppy0  IPOD
[21:08] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, cd /media/IPOD
[21:08] <Whatever> How do you get the desktop cube?
[21:09] <EdSquareCat> haha i forgot, i tried to get it to work a while ago and now i forget what its called
[21:09] <erUSUL> !ccsm | Whatever
[21:09] <ubotu> Whatever: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion

[21:09] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, ls
[21:09] <_Enissay_> can someone gives me some useful applications (that not necessary he/she uses) to install please...
[21:09] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, open terminal, give "lspci"
[21:09] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, and there should be some files listed
[21:10] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Calendars  Contacts  iPod_Control  Notes  Recordings
[21:10] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, so u don't want any songs in ur ipod?

[21:10] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, oh!
[21:10] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, have u import any songs to u ipod under windows?
[21:10] <EdSquareCat> yeS?
[21:11] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: No i havent
[21:11] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, there's only a driver for 64bit systems, as far as I know
[21:11] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, and you'll have to compile it
[21:11] <EdSquareCat> ok, thanks; i'm running 32 bit linux
[21:12] <chris0> does anyone know off the top of their head what the command that starts the GNOME network applet is?
[21:12] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, not actuall support from linux for this card. creative is to blame
[21:12] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: No i have not importet any songs from windows ?
[21:12] <EdSquareCat> yes i've heard
[21:12] <puxel> im looking for an application that will shrink raw AVIs for me
[21:12] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, cd iPod_Control/music
[21:12] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, give some time, be patient, until alsa catches up
[21:12] <EdSquareCat> thanks kostkon
[21:12] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Done
[21:12] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, :)
[21:12] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, ls
[21:13] <erUSUL> puxel: avidemux ?? ffmpeg ?? mencoder ??
[21:13] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Nothing happend
[21:13] <puxel> thanks. all i needed
[21:13] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, so it's empty
[21:13] <EdSquareCat> so i have to buy a new soundcard to get sound to work?
[21:13] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, so do u know how to empty trash?
[21:13] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: But? At my control panel it says there is only 54,9 GB remaining
[21:14] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Go to Trash Can and press Empty Trash can ?
[21:14] <ilikemyself> ubuntu
[21:14] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, those files may be in Trash
[21:14] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, first check the forums to be sure. then, I don't know, if you would like to buy a cheap temporary card? doesn't you mobo have an onboard one?
[21:14] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, yes
[21:14] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: yeah i see they are :(
[21:14] <knoppix> hi
[21:14] <EdSquareCat> i'm sure it does, but i don't know how to use it
[21:14] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: They are deleted
[21:14] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG:I check now one second
[21:14] <EdSquareCat> i believe i've tried it before
[21:15] <ilikemyself> is it possible to have ubuntu on ps3?
[21:15] <Andycasss> is there a way to set shutdown timer through terminal
[21:15] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, first, you have to go into BIOS to activate, if it is not already
[21:15] <kostkon> activate it*
[21:15] <nickrud> Andycasss: you mean shutdown the system?
[21:15] <EdSquareCat> ah yes, i remember
[21:15] <rawbeef> Does the internet manager on ubuntu freeze for anyone else?
[21:15] <EdSquareCat> anyway to know if it's activated or not without entering BIOS?
[21:15] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Well yeah something happend :D
[21:15] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, good
[21:16] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Now there is 74,3 GB remaining ?
[21:16] <Andycasss> nickrud: yes
[21:16] <Fiskejohn> I guess the 5,7 GB is ipod includes ?
[21:16] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Like calenders and so on
[21:16] <ilikemyself> is it possible to have ubuntu on ps3?
[21:16] <nickrud> Andycasss:  sudo shutdown -h 06:00 will shut off the machine at 6am , see man shutdown for other options
[21:16] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, probably
[21:16] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Okay
[21:16] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Can you help me add Songs :D
[21:16] <PriceChild> !ps3 | ilikemyself
[21:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ps3 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:16] <Makuseru> hi, i just got a new moniter, and now i cant set it above 800x600 resolution, i go into the monitor setting in system settings and thats as high as it will let me set it, how can i fix this?
[21:16] <PriceChild> gah
[21:16] <PriceChild> ilikemyself, yes :)
[21:16] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: I know i am very annoying :(
[21:16] <krav3n> is there a way to partition a disk where the system is located?
[21:17] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, it's ok
[21:17] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, first of all you could do a "lspci" to see if it is recognized ok.
[21:17] <ilikemyself> sweet!
[21:17] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: So you can help me :D?
[21:17] <PriceChild> ilikemyself, there's instructions on the wiki, lemme find them.
[21:17] <Egeste> Good day Ubuntu users
[21:17] <ilikemyself> is it better than Yellow Dog Linux?
[21:17] <white_eagle> hey is the universal TUN/TAP driver in the repos?
[21:17] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, but i would suggest u to add songs to ipod under windows
[21:17] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Via Wine?
[21:17] <PriceChild> !away > Nookie^
[21:17] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, or u can check out gtkpod
[21:17] <chris0> Makuseru: what kind of graphics card do you have?
[21:17] <erUSUL> white_eagle: that is a kernel driver (module) that is installed by default
[21:17] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: So Amarok does not work ?
[21:18] <PriceChild> ilikemyself, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuPS3
[21:18] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, Amarok may work as well
[21:18] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, but i dont use it
[21:18] <Makuseru> chris0: an old ATI Radeon that dosnt support fglrx
[21:18] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, then go to "system -> preferences -> sound" and set this sound card as the default one
[21:18] <g0th> hi
[21:18] <white_eagle> erUSUL: then why when I install a software which demands it, it says "TAP/TUN driver not found"
[21:18] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: But you suggest install Itunes by useing wine ?
[21:18] <g0th> how do I set the desktop background without nautilus?
[21:18] <white_eagle> !hi | g0th
[21:18] <erUSUL> white_eagle: sudo modprobe tun
[21:18] <ubotu> g0th: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[21:18] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, no, itunes are not working under wine
[21:18] <Egeste> Hello all, I'm egeste. i've been a windows user since I was 8 years old and started using ubuntu as of yesterday. my goal is to learn the basics of the linux operating system and become an active member in the open-source community. I need some assistance with some of my devices and device drivers. Is there anyone here who has the time to help?
[21:18] <chris0> Makuseru: and you are trying to set this in a GUI? (youre not manually editing your xorg.conf?
[21:18] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, u have to boot into windows
[21:18] <white_eagle> yeah Egeste
[21:19] <white_eagle> we all are
[21:19] <blind> Hey guys, I'm having some trouble with my wireless connection... it just keeps dropping and then reconnecting, and I'm not sure why.
[21:19] <krav3n> hello...
[21:19] <danilo> Help please, I`ve installed Ubuntu with dual boot but it doesn`t load, always gives a message? can not allocare resources
[21:19] <white_eagle> blind: are you near the router?
[21:19] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, u can try amarok i guess
[21:19] <Makuseru> chris0: correct, i tried to set it going through "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but it didnt accept the resolution
[21:19] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Okay please its kind of confuseing
[21:19] <krav3n> guys is there a way to make a partition to a disk where the system is installed?
[21:19] <chris0> Makuseru: you're in GNOME?
[21:19] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Amarok
[21:19] <blind> white_eagle: I'm pretty close, when I'm connected, I reach high speeds.
[21:19] <Egeste> I need assistance with the following issues: Wireless adapter craps out after about 30 minutes
[21:20] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: I can try explain what make me confusing
[21:20] <Makuseru> chris0: no, KDE
[21:20] <Andycasss> how to see a chmod of a directory?
[21:20] <chris0> Makuseru: ah...
[21:20] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, i really don't use amarok, so i really cant help u there
[21:20] <danilo> Help please, I`ve installed Ubuntu with dual boot but it doesn`t load, always gives a message? can not allocate resources. If I try to boot I end up with a busy box message
 what card do you have?
[21:20] <Andycasss> I know its not really a chmod, but permission but anyway...
[21:20] <hischild> Andycasss, ls -a
[21:20] <Andycasss> thanks
[21:20] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Oh okay, but its a mount command i dont understand
[21:20] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, try to google amarok ipod support
[21:20] <storm-zen> does ubuntu have apropos?  Am I spelling it right?
[21:20] <white_eagle> blind: do you own that connection? perhaps the admin of it, set it up to kick connected comps. after 15 mins (for an example)
[21:20] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Okay
[21:20] <hischild> EnvoyRising, you're back :-)
[21:20] <EdSquareCat> nvidia CK804 and nvidia CK804 - IEC958 + alsa an such are my choices
[21:20] <chris0> Makuseru: the 1337 nerdy way to do it is to go into your xorg.conf and add the resolution you'd like to use manually
[21:20] <Seveas> storm-zen, it has and you do :)
[21:20] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, what mount command?
[21:20] <blind> white_eagle: it's my connection.
[21:20] <g0th> I deactivated Nautilus since it is quite ressource intensive and I never ever use the desktop manager. Though after doing this I just see a black background. When I open gnome-appearance-properties the background is shown though (just open it not setting anything). How can I activate the background by a command (which I will then start during each session)?
[21:21] <marx2k__> wow... floodnets... that takes me back...
[21:21] <Andycasss> hischild: sorry, but that just lists the files?
[21:21] <whiteeagle> oh
[21:21] <Egeste> mo0nsniper, hold on...
[21:21] <Egeste> mo0n_sniper, hold on...
[21:21] <hischild> wait
[21:21] <mo0n_sniper> ok
[21:21] <hischild> ls -al
[21:21] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Says: Pre-connect command
[21:21] <hischild> Andycasss, ls -al
[21:21] <Makuseru> chris0: alright ill do that, its been along time since ive messed with my xorg, its in /usr/bin/X11/xorg.config right?
[21:21] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Exemple mount %d
[21:21] <Egeste> ok, Belkin f5d7050 using ndiswrapper for windows xp driver rt73usb.inf
[21:21] <EnvoyRising> hischild: you're still up?
[21:21] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: I don't know what to type in :D
[21:22] <ArthurArchnix> so... I've finished creating my custom icon theme. But it took me 6 hours to do just the 48x48. I copied the entire folder, and now I want to scale every png in the new folder down. first to 32x32, then 24x24 etc. Aside from not knowing a program or command to do this, the folders are also full of symlinks and I need to do this recursively into the folders. .. any ideas?
[21:22] <hischild> EnvoyRising, sure, it's only 2222 hours here :-)
[21:22] <CorruptTerrorist> does wubi require the alternate iso's?
[21:22] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, what u want to mount?
[21:22] <Andycasss> hischild: but is there a command that would give me it in numerical value, like 777 or so?
[21:22] <ArthurArchnix> Is there a ubuntu theme channel? They'd probably know best...
[21:22] <white_eagle> blind: perhaps the router isnt properly configured
[21:22] <ArthurArchnix> or ubuntu art.
 i'm using ndiswrapper and i have problems too
[21:22] <g0th> afk
[21:22] <Egeste> is there a batter method?
[21:22] <white_eagle> blind: try connecting to it with a windows machine
[21:22] <hischild> Andycasss, i'm not sure
[21:22] <Egeste> better*
[21:22] <EnvoyRising> hischild: oh. its 0622 over here. then again, i only had an hour of sleep
[21:22] <ArthurArchnix> !art | ArthurA
[21:22] <ubotu> ArthurA: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
 maybe there is a open source driver for your card
[21:22] <chris0> Makuseru: it's /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  If you want, for example, 1280x1024, just stick in "1280x1024" (in quotes) in among the resolutions
[21:22] <blind> white_eagle: it's connected to a windows laptop... it works perfectly :|
[21:23] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, %d stands for device name, like /dev/sda /dev/sdb
[21:23] <storm-zen> Seveas: It's not finding the command?  ( Nor is it finding the 'man 'command )... did I do something wicked?
[21:23] <white_eagle> blind: :S
[21:23] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Set a command to be run before connecting to your device (e.g. a mount command) here.
[21:23] <EdSquareCat> i'm gonna make sure its activated
[21:23] <Egeste> mo0n_sniper, I happen to know taht my card is supported under an open-sou7rce driver but I do not know how to implement it
[21:23] <Makuseru> chris0: so if i add abunch of resolutions, i can choose them from the GUI later?
[21:23] <marx2k__> where can one get a listing for all bash aliases like %d, %f, etc
[21:23] <blind> white_eagle: yeah, #ubuntu is my last resort :P
[21:23] <chris0> Makuseru: yep.
[21:23] <laughzilla> ok i figured out to do wmv to mp3 in sound converter :) thx
[21:23] <Makuseru> chris0: thanks, ill try that
[21:23] <white_eagle> blind: try asking in the forums
[21:23] <ArthurArchnix> found it... thanks ubotu...  #ubuntu-artwork
 then install the open source driver
[21:23] <storm-zen> Cew27: Sorry, I just realized; you are probably relying on prompting.  I had been talking to you without it.. haha
[21:23] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: %d is replaced by the device mode, %m by the mount point
[21:24] <wobblywu> hi
[21:24] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, right
 try it for size
[21:24] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Empty commands are not executed
[21:24] <chris0> Makuseru: sure, np. the only trick is if you have an xorg.conf like mine with no resolution lines, but I think that's pretty rare.
[21:24] <Egeste> mo0n_sniper I do not know how to properly stop the current driver and implement the new driver
[21:24] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Have any idea of what to type in there ?
[21:24] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, for u ipod?
[21:24] <chazco> Any sed experts here? I'd like to find a line in a file, and uncomment it, and the following three lines (they begin with a #). Trying to enable USB support on Gusty with a script :)
[21:24] <danilo> Help please, I`ve installed Ubuntu with dual boot but it doesn`t load, always gives a message, can not allocate resources. If I try to boot I end up with a busy box message.
[21:25] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: YEah i have to configure my ipod
[21:25] <ompaul> !filenames
[21:25] <ubotu> File names in Ubuntu are case sensitive, MyFile is not the same as myfile, and if you put spaces in there and use a console you need to "escape" the space, thus "gedit My\ File.txt"
[21:25] <Makuseru> chris0: it has alot of resolutions already listed in there
[21:25] <hspaans> chazco: sed "s/^#//"
[21:25] <chris0> Makuseru: good. add whatever resolution you want into there.
 to unsinstall you current driver go to system>administration>restricted drivers
 and unchek it
[21:25] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, it's sould be auto mounted by default
[21:25] <Makuseru> chris0: the resolution i want is already in there
[21:25] <storm-zen> Is there a memoserv service here?
[21:25] <Egeste> mo0n_sniper is that like editing the blacklist?
[21:25] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: so i type in default ?
[21:26] <chris0> Makuseru: dang, that's what I didn't want to hear. That happens occasionally
[21:26] <Makuseru> chris0: none of them show up in the GUI though
[21:26] <mo0n_sniper> it's a gui
[21:26] <j_> ,,,
[21:26] <chazco> hspaans - So say I had a line "#firstline" and the next three began "#test" and so on, i'd use?
[21:26] <chris0> Makuseru: lemme google around for a sec and see what I can dredge up...
[21:26] <Egeste> mo0n_sniper "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers"
[21:26] <CorruptTerrorist> does wubi installer require the alternate iso's?
[21:26] <white_eagle> if anyone in here needs direct rendering with ati, follow this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=589637 but use the latest driver from ati.amd.com
[21:26] <Makuseru> chris0: only the three smallest resolutions show up, so the largest i can choose is 800x600
[21:26] <j_> prince_jammys #unmounting-trouble
[21:27] <danilo> can anyone help me with an installation issue? I can`t open my ubuntu installation
[21:27] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: so i type in default ?
[21:27] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, im confused, why u try to change those?
[21:27] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Change what :D ?
 wait a sec......\
[21:27] <hischild> EnvoyRising, if you've only slept for an hour, maybe go get some more sleep? :p
[21:27] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG; Na nvm :D I try google it
[21:27] <storm-zen> how do I get apropos on my system?  Can't find it in synaptic; it's probably provided in another package...
[21:27] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: Thanks for alot of you time :)
[21:27] <chris0> Makuseru: and you said that sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg didn't help?
[21:27] <hspaans> chazco: why not? sed is a stream editor, but the regexpr also works in vi/vim
[21:28] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> Fiskejohn, ya, sorry i dont know really what u are trying to do so...
[21:28] <Makuseru> chris0: right
[21:28] <Fiskejohn> [Hardy]TuTUXG: thanks alot anyways :D
[21:28] <bsdnewb07> guys sendmail is returning errors like SYSERR(root): collect: Cannot write ./dfm1OLMtlV007728 (bfcommit, uid=0, gid=117):

[21:29] <danilo> pls, anyone lend a hand of expertise for me to run my ubuntu install? I can`t get it to load
 you installed ndsipluginwrapper manually?
[21:29] <EdSquareCat> kostkon, i made sure my motherboard sound was activated, and tested my sound, but no sound
[21:29] <EnvoyRising> anyone know of a good graphical subversion client?
[21:29] <hischild> danilo, what seems to be the problem?
[21:29] <danilo> Help please, I`ve installed Ubuntu with dual boot but it doesn`t load, always gives a message, can not allocate resources. If I try to boot I end up with a busy box message.
[21:29] <Egeste> mo0n_sniper I installed it via the pacjage manager
[21:29] <Egeste> package**
[21:29] <hischild> danilo, you can run the installation just fine?
[21:30] <chazco> hspaans - Never used vim so i'm unsure
then remove it
[21:30] <Egeste> okee dokee
then try to install the open source driver
[21:30] <Egeste> if I do that I WILL be disconnected
[21:30] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, did you go to "system -> preferences -> sound" and set it and test it from there. furthermore, check you volume levels.
[21:30] <Tu13es> how do I add keyboard shortcuts beyond what's listed in Keyboard Shortcuts?
[21:30] <Egeste> gotcha
[21:30] <danilo> hischild, nope it doesn`t load at all I never leave the screen that shows the ubuntu logo
[21:30] <Egeste> link to current ndiswrapper?
[21:30] <chris0> Makuseru: can you post your xorg.conf somewhere for me to look at?
[21:31] <hspaans> chazco: but you know how sed works?
[21:31] <Makuseru> chris0: yes, just a second
[21:31] <hischild> danilo, are we talking about the installation of ubuntu or about the booting of it?
 what do you mean?
[21:31] <hischild> danilo, and are you using the live cd or the alternate?
[21:31] <chazco> hspaans - To some extent, not very good with it though
[21:31] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, if you open something in Totem, do you get an error or just you don't hear anything?
[21:31] <Egeste> mo0n_sniper location of most current package?
 for what?
[21:31] <EdSquareCat> totem?
[21:32] <Egeste> the most recent build of ndiswrapper
[21:32] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, any media player
[21:32] <Makuseru> chris0: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57267/
[21:32] <EdSquareCat> thought so :}
[21:32] <danilo> hischikd I installed Ubuntu 7.10 through desktop CD, i386. It went through well but when choosing through Grub it doesnt load. It doesn`t load after the splash screen
 you said there is a open source driver for your card
[21:32] <EdSquareCat> i just get no sound
[21:32] <EdSquareCat> no error
[21:32] <EnvoyRising> so everyone who's familiar with subversion just uses the command line?
[21:32] <Egeste> oh oh oh
[21:32] <Egeste> that
[21:32] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, do you get an error about the sound device or no sound
[21:32] <hischild> EnvoyRising, yeah d0h, it's much better :-)
[21:32] <puxel> thanks a lot erUSUL. I got Avidemux working fine
[21:32] <danilo> hischild sorry
[21:32] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, ok, no sound? check your volume levels
[21:32] <EdSquareCat> nope, i don't get an error, i just don't get sound
[21:33] <hischild> danilo, for what?
 open source usually works better on linux ;)
[21:33] <danilo> later on I`m directed to a screen that says busy box (I incorrectly typed your name)
[21:33] <EdSquareCat> all levels are max or near max
[21:33] <EnvoyRising> hischild: eh. i generally like a frontend for this kind of thing. seeing what all files are available without having to type a command string is nifty
[21:33] <hischild> danilo, oh wait now i see ... you can use tab completion ... if you type his and then hit tab it fills in my name
[21:34] <kostkon> EdSquareCat, ok, go to terminals and do "alsamixer" and change/check you volume levels there
[21:34] <kostkon> terminal*
[21:34] <chris0> Makuseru: what resolution is the screen supposed to run at?
[21:34] <erUSUL> puxel: no problem
[21:34] <hischild> danilo, did it give you any error when you were installing it?
[21:34] <choward> Is there an easy way to get the digital out working on an Audigy2?
[21:34] <danilo> hischild: cool. tks. Nope, no errors on the installation
[21:34] <hischild> ok gimme a second
[21:35] <Makuseru> chris0: my old moniter ran at 1280x1024 and it was a 14', this new one is a 16' so id like to run it at 1400x1050,
[21:35] <danilo> hischild: everytime i run a live CD also to try and troubleshoot I get a quick error message `can not allocate resources`
[21:35] <rawbeef> does anyone here have a BCM4306 802.11b/g?
[21:35] <rawbeef> i'm trying to get wireless working and it seems impossible
[21:35] <EdSquareCat> all up except for "LFE", whatever that is
[21:35] <crispy_chunks> Hello! Ive been trying to install ubuntu on my system, but the installation crashes all the time so i went with fedora core 8 instead. But i really hate this compated to ubuntu! Is it possible to somehow make fedora core 8 into ubuntu?
[21:35] <crispy_chunks> without reinstalling
[21:35] <chris0> Makuseru: I'd try copying your xorg.conf to a backup file somewhere and removing all of your resolutions except 1400x1050 and seeing what it does.
[21:36] <Makuseru> chris, alright, ill try that
[21:36] <EdSquareCat> says card: NVidia CK804      Chip:Realtek ALC850 rev 0
[21:36] <EnvoyRising> grrr.. i need cvs not svn
[21:36] <EdSquareCat> it also might be relevant that i have surround sound
[21:36] <Squawk> guys, keyboard question, currently I have to hit keys such as " with a space afterwards to get them to print, can I somehow change that so I just have to type "them once?
[21:36] <hischild> danilo, this error shows up shortly after grub?
[21:36] <crispy_chunks> Ubuntu + that onboard surrounds is a no go just FYI
[21:37] <choward> crispy_chunks, unfortunaly no.
[21:37] <CorruptTerrorist> does wubi installer require the alternate iso's?
[21:37] <Makuseru> chris0: going to logout and restar X to see if it works
[21:37] <chris0> Makuseru: ok
[21:37] <crispy_chunks> well at least you cant get it to fully work
[21:37] <danilo> hischild: the bar on the splash screen never fills up, after a couple of mins I get a `busy box` command prompt
[21:37] <hspaans> rawbeef: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/182716/+viewstatus
[21:37] <choward> Ubuntu is Debian based where Fedora is RedHat (RPM) based
[21:38] <EdSquareCat> so i have the worst combo of sound cards for linux?
[21:38] <EdSquareCat> haha
[21:38] <crispy_chunks> probably :)
[21:38] <gopp> does any know of a easy way to config ldap
[21:38] <gopp> graphical way
[21:38] <crispy_chunks> well you can get sound out, but you cant make passthrough to spdif
[21:38] <EdSquareCat> don't know what that means
[21:38] <hischild> EnvoyRising, do you know from the top of your head how to remove quiet boot from grub on bootup? :P
[21:38] <rawbeef> hspaans: i'm sorry, i can't make head or tails of this :\ is there no solution?
[21:39] <EdSquareCat> i'd be happy with the tiniest bleep :}
[21:39] <EnvoyRising> hischild: you have to delete the line from the menu.lst file don't you?
[21:39] <EdSquareCat> besides the system beep
[21:39] <EdSquareCat> haha
[21:39] <crispy_chunks> followed any guides so far?
[21:39] <EnvoyRising> hischild: or is that too easy for you? :P
[21:39] <Makuseru> chris0: nothing
[21:39] <hischild> EnvoyRising, yeah.... well the thing is, danilo's box crashes at some point ... thus he has to edit in grub on boot up .... so yeah that'd be 2 easy :p
[21:39] <prince_jammys> EdSquareCat: echo -e "\a"  :)
[21:40] <hischild> EnvoyRising, he has to edit it on bootup ... which is where i'm lost which line/words it were
[21:40] <EdSquareCat> yes, a couple months ago i tried to fix it for a while
[21:40] <chris0> Makuseru: ok, I'm firing up my kubuntu box to look around
[21:40] <danilo> hischild: now I see that the install partitions (ext3 and swap) are inside an extended partition, does that matter?
[21:40] <Makuseru> chris0: ok, thanks
[21:40] <crispy_chunks> try to run alsamixer and turn down everything with IECxxxx
[21:40] <EnvoyRising> hischild: haven't a clue, but can get one..
[21:40] <EdSquareCat> nothin happens
[21:40] <crispy_chunks> x = numbers
[21:40] <hischild> danilo, no ... a sec please while i'm looking which words  you have to edit
[21:40] <EdSquareCat> prince_jammys
[21:40] <edvpc> I'm new to ubuntu and I am having trouble with java plugin for firefox
[21:40] <avis> danilo, you should include a /home directory in case you'd like to reinstall and not lose your data
[21:41] <hischild> !java | edvpc
[21:41] <ubotu> edvpc: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)
[21:41] <danilo> hischild: tks
[21:41] <hspaans> rawbeef: short answer? put your money on something else for now
[21:41] <erUSUL> edvpc: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[21:41] <hischild> EnvoyRising, would be nice if you could :-)
[21:41] <jonnymac> quick question for the Ubuntu buffs, if a laptop is only W-Lan how is there any way for me to get it to detect normal/modern wi-fi connections?
[21:41] <Egeste> mo0n_sniper available?
[21:41] <danilo> avis: tks, but it is a fresh install so no problem, it never opened
[21:41] <albert> how to configure x.org to use the latest nVidia driver? coz i got blank screen after install it.
[21:41] <prince_jammys> EdSquareCat: sorry, bad joke.  typed it after you mentioned the tiniest bleep
[21:41] <edvpc> I've installed it and have made sure that it is my default but it still doesn't work
[21:41] <choward> Found my solution.  For those with an Audigy card run alsamixer from shell and mute <IEC958 0> This turns off 'Optical Raw'
[21:42] <chris0> Makuseru: OK Got it. Go to K -> System Settings and click on "Monitor and Display"
[21:42] <EdSquareCat> oh haha! the bleep was so tiny i didn't even here it over the the smack of the "enter" key
 kind of i'm trying to compile someting
[21:42] <Makuseru> chris0: alright
[21:42] <CorruptTerrorist> if anyone here uses/used wubi... can they pm me please?
[21:42] <Scunizi> jonnymac, W-Lan sounds like wireless lan which is the same thing as saying wi-fi..
[21:42] <avis> yes danilo i was just thinking about the long haul.  with only swap and / if you wanted to reinstall you'd lose your data.  / only needs to be about 12GB and the rest could go to /home
[21:42] <hischild> EnvoyRising, found it:-)
[21:42] <chris0> Makuseru: get into administrator mode and click the "Hardware" tab
[21:42] <danilo> avis: tks!
[21:43] <Makuseru> chris0: alright
[21:43] <crispy_chunks> EdSquareCat: so it works now? :p
[21:43] <jonnymac> hmm, just a friend has an ancient laptop (all of it in german) and she can't connect/detect to my wi-fi system
[21:43] <Scunizi> jonnymac, unless you're talking about an "aircard" from sprint, verizon etc..
[21:43] <Steve176> Hi, have got wireless networking with WPA working under 7.10 but need to restart networking manually after each reboot. Any ideas? Thx
[21:43] <chris0> Makuseru: Pick Monitor #1 and hit the Configure...button
[21:43] <EnvoyRising> hischild: where was it?
[21:43] <Makuseru> chris0: alright
[21:43] <EnvoyRising> hischild: i found where to specify the file to use, but not actually change it
[21:43] <EdSquareCat> yep, i'll just reprogram all my programs to use the system beep for everything!
[21:43] <Scunizi> jonnymac, do you have encription enabled on your lan?
[21:43] <EdSquareCat> it'll be wonderful :}
[21:44] <crispy_chunks> have you turned IEC playback down all the way?
[21:44] <chris0> Makuseru: if you know your monitor's manufacturer and model number, choose that, otherwise, go under Generic and pick your screen resolution
[21:44] <EnvoyRising> hischild: or was it update-grub? lol
[21:44] <crispy_chunks> and set IEC playback source to PCM?
[21:44] <jonnymac> her computer is strange to me, how can I use terminal command to show me all available wireless systems?
[21:44] <avis> Steve176, i used wicd to solve all my network-manager problems.  i noticed that things were more stable once i had a proper /etc/networking/interfaces file
[21:44] <hischild> danilo, please on the next boot on grub, press e. Go down to the kernel line. press e again to edit this line. Move to the end of the line and see if you see the words quiet or spash. Remove either one of these 2 if you see them. Press enter. Press b to boot up. Pay special attention when you boot wether you see any panics or other error messages.
[21:44] <robdig> Steve176: in /etc/network/interfaces do you have your interface set to auto? like auto eth1
[21:44] <fliegenderfrosch> EdSquareCat: "beep" is your program then
[21:44] <rawbeef> :\
[21:44] <hischild> EnvoyRising, no, it has to be done before you can boot into your box :-)
[21:44] <Steve176> avis i tried wicd but couldn't get it working with WPA.
[21:44] <Steve176> or WEP, just unencrypted
[21:44] <hischild> EnvoyRising, look at what i wrote danilo
[21:44] <EdSquareCat> yes
[21:44] <crispy_chunks> that driver for that soundcard is sooooooo bugged ;(
[21:45] <Steve176> robdig auto wlan0
[21:45] <Makuseru> chris0: ok, fount my manuf and model
[21:45] <rawbeef> Using a broadcom 43xx i'm able to connect to networks using wifiradar, but i can't get packets
[21:45] <rawbeef> ah!
[21:45] <Scunizi> jonnymac, that I don't know. You could in stall wifiradar.. for gui of same thing.. could also be that her wireless card needs a wrapper..
[21:45] <avis> very strange Steve176 mine works fine with WPA.  be sure to have a good /etc/networking/interfaces file regardless
[21:45] <speeddemon8803> Steve176, what kind of wireless card do you have?
[21:45] <chris0> Makuseru: if it's a widescreen, make sure to select Widescreen in the Image Format dropdown. Now hit OK.
[21:45] <Makuseru> chris0: and i can choose bigger resolutions now
[21:45] <Makuseru> chris0: thank
[21:45] <Makuseru> chris0: you very much
[21:45] <EnvoyRising> hischild: does that really show all the grub options? i was under the impression that was only for kernel options
[21:45] <chris0> Makuseru: no problem
[21:45] <komputes> rawbeef: have you tried NDISwrapper'in the windows drivers?
[21:45] <Steve176> avis, yes interface file is fine - works perfectly with manual restart
[21:45] <Scunizi> jonnymac, sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[21:45] <robdig> Steve176: that should do it if wlan0 is your wireless card...
[21:46] <Steve176> speeddemon, its one of those nightmare braodcoms
[21:46] <EdSquareCat> how do i set the iec playback source to pcm?
[21:46] <EdSquareCat> didnt see that
[21:46] <rawbeef> komputes: no
[21:46] <danilo> hischild: tks!! I`ll try it out now.
[21:46] <avis> in that case Steve176 i dont know why you'd have to manually start it.  sorry
[21:46] <jonnymac> problem for is that it's all in German, kay, will try that, thanks
[21:46] <Dan> hallo
[21:46] <komputes> rawbeef: broadcom is a little tricky at times
[21:46] <b4l74z4r> i installed ubuntu yesterday and i partitioned manually, i had one windows partition and one free space, so i created a / partition in the free space and sized it so that there would be 2048mb of free space behind it, i then mounted the 2048mb's of free space as swap so that i would be able to hibernate (my ram is 2048mb), after the system was installed i saw that the swap file wasn't 2048 but 1.9gb instead, how can this have happened?
[21:46] <hischild> EnvoyRising, it depends on which line you select from that list :-) you get like a few options where you can edit stuff ... and the kernel line shows you the things like quiet and splash
[21:46] <hischild> EnvoyRising, at least ... if i'm right on it
[21:46] <speeddemon8803> oh, i have a intel pro/wireless...now THATS a nightmare Steve176
[21:46] <Dan> what???????????
[21:46] <rawbeef> komputes: do people ever get it working?
[21:46] <Steve176> lol. it can't be as bad as this pos
[21:46] <EnvoyRising> hischild: well i'll certainly have learned something if (when) you're right
[21:46] <Scunizi> jonnymac, there is a way to change to english..  I don't know how. someone here will.
[21:47] <hischild> EnvoyRising, :-) we'll know soon enough once danilo returns
[21:47] <danilo> hischild: I`ll try it out now and hopefully will come back with good news
[21:47] <abomb83> hi, i'm new to irc as well as ubuntu... there are so many people on here, do I just ask questions in the main chat?
[21:47] <jonnymac> scunizi: that would work except she can't connect to the internet now :-[ woud an interface between the two ubuntu computers be simpler perhaps?l
[21:47] <avis> Steve176, i picked up a airlink usb network adaptor, tiny little thing at Frys.  was only $20  supports WPA but not WPA2.
[21:47] <EdSquareCat> abomb83: yes
[21:47] <iter> abomb83: yes, but don't paste logs here-- feel free to ask away
[21:48] <Scunizi> anyone know how to switch the system language from german to english?  If you do please direct it to johhymac
[21:48] <komputes> b4l74z4r: It's possible that it's calculating 1MB as 1024 instead of 1000, or that oneof your ram modules are faulty
[21:48] <albert> anyone got an idea how to fix the x-org.conf i got blank screen after install the latest nVidia driver with my GeForce Go 8700M GT
[21:48] <illriginal> anyone know how to install ubuntu 7.10 onto PS3 properly?...
[21:48] <hischild> abomb83, as you can probably see, we're preceding things with the names we're pointing the answers/questions to. This helps us as we can make out things easier :-)
[21:48] <Steve176> avis right now that doesn't sound like such a bad idea. It's taken 3 days to get this far
[21:48] <Scunizi> jonnymac, you may not have to have internet connection to change the language.. maybe just a live cd.
[21:48] <avis> Steve176, you want me usb adaptor model number ?  i can fetch it real quic
[21:48] <abomb83> well, I  was trying to enable dual monitors when I somehow lost my xorg.conf as well as the backup
[21:49] <Steve176> it's ok, I'm UK based it is probably different. I'll persist for a bit, then research something that's "known to work"
[21:49] <jonnymac> ok well, I might figure it out. I think the live cd is a good idea...
[21:49] <Steve176> avis thanks though
[21:49] <komputes> rawbeef: broadcom has pages like this, make sur you have the coorcr model by doing "lspci" in a shell
[21:49] <chris0> albert: use nvidia-settings
[21:49] <komputes> rawbeef: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM4311_rev_01_(ndiswrapper)
[21:50] <albert> i can only login in text mode.. thats the problem..
[21:50] <EdSquareCat> how do you get out of text mode by the way?
[21:50] <robdig> albert: to reconfigure X, run the command sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[21:50] <timglock> hello
[21:51] <illriginal> I'm tryin to install Ubuntu 7.10 (PowerPC) onto my Playstation 3, and I'm following this guide; http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/custom/20071115-gutsy-ps3/
[21:51] <EdSquareCat> hello timglock!
[21:51] <timglock> i have a question, sorry I am sure u see that all the time but
[21:51] <ompaul> EdSquareCat, depends how you got there
[21:51] <illriginal> is that the right site to go to?
[21:51] <EdSquareCat> how bout ctrl alt f2?
[21:51] <timglock> I am knowledgable so should be easy to fix, I want to run a script at start up that changes the mac address
[21:51] <ompaul> illriginal, it should be, it is legit
[21:51] <PriceChild> illriginal, yes
[21:51] <timglock> ive created the script and it works when i do it, ./script
[21:51] <timglock> it runs it
[21:52] <komputes> illriginal: PowerPC was dropped at 6.06 AFAIK
[21:52] <albert> thanks robdig, i copy that.
[21:52] <timglock> its a simple ifconfig hw ether.... then  echo "success" etc
[21:52] <ompaul> EdSquareCat, ctrl alt F7 but first CTRL D to logout
[21:52] <timglock> how do i make it run at boot?
[21:52] <droazen> timglock: you could add the script to /etc/rc.local
[21:52] <timglock> I added it to initrd and sessions
[21:52] <illriginal> PriceChild... what exactly do i need to do with those two additional files?... do i just copy them to a specific folder once linux is installed..?
[21:52] <timglock> but it doesnt run
[21:52] <chris0> does anyone know the command that starts the Gnome panel network applet?
[21:52] <timglock> i think maybe because it needs me to put in password but i cant?
[21:52] <oyvind> removed the wireless applet from the top panel, cant find it to put it back.. anybody know where it is?
[21:52] <EdSquareCat> why do i have to log out first?
[21:53] <releod> hi - I am trying to figure out how to get a total  number of files (recursively inside a folder) - any ideas?
