[08:28] <ubot3> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[08:29] <Andrew250> CarlFK: there should be way more
[08:29] <ritzcracker> hmm
[08:29] <Andrew250> CarlFK: I had almost 60GBs of MP3s
[08:29] <ritzcracker> musya: what is the error your getting again
[08:29] <kahrytan> Andrew250, Legal I hope
[08:29] <boontoo> is there anyway of capturing network packets on a wireless card that doesn't support monitoring mode?
[08:30] <Andrew250> sure
[08:30] <kahrytan> Andrew250, that sounded like a no
[08:30] <musya> ritzcracker: "Only one software managment tool is allowed to run at the same time"
[08:30] <boontoo> Andrew250: doing  some quick maths that would mean your very rich
[08:30] <chasetoys> does anyone know how to fix my authenticatoin so that only my thinkfinger swipe is required?  (right now i am prompted for both password and thinkfinger swipe)
[08:30] <ritzcracker> what package are you trying to install
[08:30] <musya> please close other apps. e.g.'update manager' 'aptitude'
[08:31] <musya> jedit
[08:31] <Andrew250> kahrytan: I put all of my rip on to 320 MP3
[08:31] <musya> i got the debian installer
[08:31] <kahrytan> Andrew250, You are obsessed with HQ music?
[08:31] <Andrew250> boontoo: that's my whole family's cds too
[08:31] <ritzcracker> ubuntu already has the debian installer
[08:31] <Andrew250> kahrytan: yep
[08:31] <ritzcracker> one moment
[08:31] <musya> ok
[08:31] <kahrytan> Andrew250, Use lossless format
[08:31] <musya> thanks btw
[08:32] <ritzcracker> np
[08:32] <Andrew250> kahrytan: why would I need that if I have the CDs? right?
[08:32] <bucky> timido, you there?
[08:32] <kahrytan> Andrew250, to have it digitally stored
[08:32] <TiMiDo> yeah im here bucky
[08:32] <boontoo> Andrew250: ah ok well 60 gigs is only about 3,000$ anyway
[08:32] <Andrew250> CDs are digital
[08:32] <chasetoys> does anyone know how to fix my authenticatoin so that only my thinkfinger swipe is required?  (right now i am prompted for both password and thinkfinger swipe)
[08:32] <chasetoys> oooops damn comp
[08:32] <ritzcracker> I do not see why you would be getting that error but you do not need to install that package
[08:32] <ritzcracker> because you already have it
[08:33] <ritzcracker> you can install .deb files by default in ubuntu
[08:33] <kahrytan> Andrew250, not that way
[08:33] <bucky> I entered those commands, I'm still having problems. Can you pm me?
[08:33] <TiMiDo> bucky, ask
[08:33] <Andrew250> I just put them on MP3s do I don't have to carry a huge CD player, now I have an ipod I can run with.
[08:34] <kahrytan> Andrew250, You could rip to lossless and burn a dvd audio disc if you got dvd player capable
[08:34] <bucky> I'm trying to install this ati driver, how do I run the file?
[08:34] <Chad> hey Chris24 :P
[08:34] <Andrew250> my dvd player doesn't play lossless
[08:34] <musya> ritzcracker: i have jedit?
[08:34] <ritzcracker> bucky: are you running ubuntu 7.04
[08:34] <bucky> Yeah
[08:34] <boontoo> does wireshark work over wireless im assuming it does
[08:35] <axel> where is dalnet
[08:35] <ritzcracker> just go to system - adminstration - restricted drivers
[08:35] <ritzcracker> and enable the ati one
[08:35] <musya> ritzcracker: its always worked, but were you talking about jedit? or gedit?
[08:35] <Andrew250> CarlFK: what should I do?
[08:35] <kahrytan> Andrew250, You should have gotten a meizu
[08:35] <bucky> ok, I'll try that thanks
[08:35] <Chris24> hi Chad
[08:35] <axel> hi... my sound card does not working
[08:35] <CarlFK> Andrew250: my head is getting fuzzy, but here is what I got:  assuming total sectors is 255 * 63 * 19457 = 312576705, round up to 320 000 000, sudo gpart /dev/sdc -K 320000000 -W /dev/sdc
[08:35] <Andrew250> kahrytan: never heard of it.
[08:35] <ritzcracker> musya: what exactly are you trying to install
[08:35] <Chad> twitter ftw, eh? :P
[08:35] <musya> jedit
[08:35] <ritzcracker> you said debian package manager
[08:35] <CarlFK> Andrew250: (^C to abort the current gpart run)
[08:35] <ritzcracker> okay
[08:36] <musya> ritzcracker: jedit
[08:36] <kahrytan> Andrew250, Meizu. Chinese flavor to the ipod
[08:36] <axel> hi... my sound card does not working
[08:36] <musya> http://jedit.org
[08:36] <bucky> ritzcracker: thanks, I'm rebooting now
[08:36] <kahrytan> Andrew250, http://en.meizu.com/ M3 is Nano clone and M6 is way beyond ipod video clone
[08:36] <boontoo> axel: try typing lspci in console is your soundcard shown
[08:37] <Andrew250> CarlFK: didn't do anything
[08:37] <ritzcracker> are you using apt-get
[08:37] <ritzcracker> our sympatic
[08:37] <CarlFK> Andrew250: the -K will keep it from scanning the 140 gig of the 300 that isn't part of the 160's bytes.  -W will prompt you to write out the part table it finds
[08:37] <boontoo> axel try lspci | grep -i audio
[08:37] <Andrew250> CarlFK: process didn't stop?
[08:38] <CarlFK> it it harder ?
[08:38] <ritzcracker> musya: you using sympatic or apt-get
[08:38] <Andrew250> CarlFK: what?
[08:38] <kahrytan> Andrew250, Meizu M3 supports WMA, WMA VBR, WMA LOSSLESS, OGG, WAV, FLAC Playback
[08:38] <musya> ritzcracker: nope i downloaded a .deb
[08:38] <Andrew250> kahrytan: cool
[08:38] <musya> and the debian package installer is installing
[08:38] <Andrew250> kahrytan: that's great
[08:38] <ritzcracker> musya: do this

[08:41] <Andrew250> CarlFK: ok
[08:41] <bucky> I installed the ATi driver, it looks like it's running fine, but I still can't set my monitor resolution to anything above 1024x768
[08:41] <kahrytan> Andrew250, How many cds do you have?
[08:41] <CarlFK> Andrew250: on that note, I wish you the best.  im going to bed
[08:42] <Meroigo> I have a Ubuntu 6.06 live CD, can I install Ubuntu with it, and then easily update to 7.04 with the update manager? :P

[08:42] <BetaTester> Hi all. How can I check if I have opengl activated on nvidia. I have no driver installed.
[08:42] <Andrew250> CarlFK: We're still think that all didn't copy right?
[08:42] <CarlFK> Andrew250: hard to say.  you have a fast box, not sure how fast usb2 can move 160 gig
[08:42] <dibblego> how can I tell my server the name of its network interface, since it seems to choose eth0 or eth1 arbitrarily?
[08:42] <sauvin> !mp3
[08:42] <BetaTester> glxinfo | grep opengl ? or there is another command?

[08:43] <dibblego> Kousotu, try #ubuntu-de
[08:43] <Andrew250> CarlFK: Thanks for all your help CarlFK even thought most of what you tryed to teach me went woosh.  I thank you for at lease attemping to help me and not just posting links to the man and forums like others do.
[08:43] <Kousotu> dibblego: I'd rather try herefirst lol
[08:44] <Kousotu> I'm not german-speaking
[08:44] <BetaTester> Anybody how do I check from console if opengl is activated :(

[08:45] <raboof> is it possible to suspend/hibernate, even if my root filesystem is an USB disk?
[08:45] <boontoo> BetaTester: try glxinfo
[08:45] <CarlFK> Andrew250: I would go back and note the few commands that you trred: dd and gpart are the main ones, if you want to see dd's progress, ps and kill.  if this doesn't work out, do it all again.  guessing because one of the kills killed it.
[08:45] <Andrew250> How can I format my laptops drive and mbr so that grub isn't there any more?
[08:45] <digitalsky> hi
[08:45] <BetaTester> ok boontoo thanks
[08:46] <boontoo> BetaTester: or glxinfo | grep -i opengl
[08:46] <raboof> when suspending to RAM, the system seems to suspend OK, but when I resume, I'm left with a bash prompt and no filesystem (so no 'ls', 'shutdown', or anything at all available :) )
[08:46] <jeremyc_> HEY Guys I totally think you should google your problems
[08:46] <jeremyc_> goodnight
[08:46] <Andrew250> CarlFK: Will do
[08:46] <CarlFK> Andrew250: oh yeah, fdisk too.  cuz the /dev/sdx may not be the same if you un/plug the drive
[08:46] <CarlFK> see ya
[08:46] <digitalsky> i'm new to ubuntu... just set up my canon inkjet, but i don't have the program to do head-cleaning.  The cd that came with the printer only supplied windows and mac software.
[08:46] <digitalsky> anyone know where i could do that in linux?
[08:46] <Andrew250> CarlFK: ok
[08:46] <Andrew250> CarlFK: take care.  Have a good sleep
[08:47] <Andrew250> CarlFK: Thanks again
[08:47] <BetaTester> boontoo, thanks
[08:47] <CarlFK> thanks
[08:47] <kahrytan> digitalsky, did you check if there is on printer head clean method?
[08:48] <digitalsky> kahrytan: sorry what do you mean? i have the software to run head cleaning/alignment only for windows and mac
[08:48] <digitalsky> kahrytan: actually i haven't checked if they have linux version on their web. let me check
[08:48] <chasetoys> i compiled alsa from source on my t61.... and now i can access alsamixer.... and my HDA INTEL shows up in alsamixer... but when i try to play back a stream with xmms for instance:  ** WARNING **: oss_open(): Failed to open audio device (/dev/dsp): Device or resource busy
[08:48] <chasetoys>  ..... any ideas?
[08:49] <bullgard4> What is meant by 'out-of-tree'? as in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Suspend2Kernel ?
[08:49] <kahrytan> digitalsky, Some printers may have method on it as well
[08:49] <kahrytan> digitalsky, without needing the computer
[08:49] <bucky> I got the ATi drivers working but how do I set my monitor resolution to something above 1024x768?
[08:50] <digitalsky> kahrytan: hmm i don't see any head-cleaning button on the printer
[08:50] <TiMiDo> bucky, sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[08:50] <erikja> I'm installing Ubuntu7.04 on a laptop. The resolution is very low, and I then cannot see the "OK" that I want after  having choosed an option and want to carry on the installation. What can I do ?
[08:50] <digitalsky> in canon it appears they don't have software/drivers for linux
[08:51] <Andrew250> CarlFK: can I format my laptops hd at the same time I'm doing the scan?
[08:51] <linxuz3r> when it says 2 x 1gb model does it mean 2 memory "sticks" of 1 gb model?
[08:51] <linxuz3r> module
[08:51] <kahrytan> digitalsky, It's not a button. its a method. Ask Cannon support.  it could be to hold a button down for few seconds or  push few buttons in order.
[08:51] <kayotic> linxuz3r that is correct 2 one gig sticks
[08:52] <witness273> I have non Ubuntu specific question I hope someone here can help me with.
[08:52] <witness273> I had a power outage tonight and the UPS were used up so my servers crashed.  I have one that is giving me a file system error message and forcing a check using ext2.  Anyway I have run the check several times.  Is there a way that I can by pass the forced check, to see if things will still work?
[08:53] <digitalsky> kahrytan: oh ok i didn't know that.
[08:53] <joeblow988> I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 on my toshiba x205 laptop and it doesn't appear to see my hd-dvd drive at all
[08:53] <brad016> I can not compile any source code. I untar The binary with "tar zxvf filename.tar.gz" and when I do "./configure" I gives me "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[08:53] <brad016> "
[08:54] <digitalsky> kahrytan: but for alignment, it requires input from the user so I would imagine that it's probably not possible with just the 3 buttons on the printer and no display?
[08:54] <digitalsky> kahrytan: would something like "wine" work with these kind of software?
[08:54] <cwraig> hi all, ii have a large unmber of cds (data) that i am trying to dump on a hard drive for backup, is there any way i can execute a bash script on media insert?
[08:54] <digitalsky> kahrytan: rather, would these software work in linux through wine?
[08:54] <brad016> Jordan_U, I can not compile any source code. I untar The binary with "tar zxvf filename.tar.gz" and when I do "./configure" I gives me "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

[09:12] <Kousotu> Myrtti 7.1 and 7.10 makes NO difference
[09:12] <Kousotu> boontoo: exactly
[09:12] <astro76> 10 stands for October
[09:12] <boontoo> mathamatically anyway
[09:12] <boontoo> perhaps aesthetically
[09:12] <avis> well from a mathematical perspective it might not make a difference however i have only seen it as 7.10
[09:12] <boontoo> ^
[09:12] <Johnuah> I got trouble when install the ubuntu through Wubi

[09:20] <Johnuah> dariuskane: is that based on the fact?
[09:20] <dariuskane> Kousotu, you doubt that kind of thing happens? many moon ago an asian MIT student wrote a paper on it
[09:20] <avis> boontoo, wicd might work for you it includes the selection of WPA supplicant drivers its not in the official repo but can be found using a google search.  i have heard it work in cases like yours when other methods might fail
[09:20] <boontoo> did it involve hallucinogenics
[09:20] <Johnuah> dariuskane: I know that game
[09:21] <dariuskane> try and google asian tattoo misinterpretation

[09:21] <Johnuah> we r all off topic
[09:22] <avis> boontoo, well wicd comes bundled with it and you basically select the driver from a drop down list.  makes things simple plus i like it much better than gnome-network-manager
[09:22] <boontoo> avis: ok cool
[09:23] <Johnuah> I'm installing the ubuntu through wubi now but it is choking at the screen of "importing document and setting from other system"
[09:23] <chasetoys> can someone give me a good reccomendation for a package full of good fonts to use ?  (i think some internet sites require fonts i dont hav eon my comp)
[09:23] <Johnuah> can anyone advise me?
[09:24] <avis> Johnuah, for me it seems you might try not importing windows stuff.  if it fails while you are still doing that then i might consider that method might not work for you
[09:24] <Andrew250> can someone help me remove GRUB Boot Loader so that I can use windows again?
[09:24] <Johnuah> avis: but you know, wubi will do that without my control
[09:25] <Andrew250> I know it has something to do my my drive's mbr but I don't know how to edit it.
[09:25] <Johnuah> avis: I just want to know whether I should force to reboot the computer or not
[09:25] <Kousotu> dariuskane: I doubt I have anything offensive
[09:25] <Kousotu> boontoo: do you have Ndis wrapper yet?
[09:25] <avis> Johnuah, sometimes you have to when you have no other choice

[09:28] <Johnuah> avis:reboot or wait for more
[09:28] <scipio> you need to boot from the cd
[09:28] <sauvin> I can't get Noatun to play mp3 files. Mplayer does, of course (mplayer plays ANYTHING), but it's cumbersome to use. Amarok does, too, but its interface is bizarre.
[09:28] <sauvin> How to get noatun to play mp3s? I tried the directions given on pages indicated by the bot; they don't work.
[09:28] <Andrew250> but I'm hoping there is a way to do it using the Ubuntu DVD because I'm currently running a recovery process on a different drive.

[09:29] <boontoo> skoenman: please provide more information
[09:29] <sauvin> Kousotu, those DO NOT WORK.
[09:29] <scipio> sauvin: if you can't get that to work try xmms or vlc. xmms looks similar to winamp

[10:11] <Andrew250> recovery a files on a deleted ext3 partition.
[10:11] <Andrew250> I meant recover files
[10:11] <dariuskane> GeneralK, never tried the DVD... but if you are creating LVM groups and parititon it can take up to a few minutes for each partition.. its a known bug... but it hasnt frozen... jsut slow
[10:11] <astro76> Andrew250, how was this partition deleted?
[10:12] <Andrew250> using the XP CD.  It was not formated just deleted.
[10:12] <dariuskane> m310107, well if you take the new card out and it works... then you replace the old card for the new card and it works again... then its a conflict
[10:12] <GeneralK> dariuskane, I had thought to try it without LVM. Same result. But I didn't know if it would recover from sitting there and not even letting me switch consoles or not.

[10:32] <Arafangion> familie: Your three alternatives are: (1) Upgrade wine to the latest version on winehq.org, (2) Install windows inside of a VMware session, emulating windows, and (3) Dualbooting.
[10:32] <SlimeyPete> Qodosh: Either the PocketPC or the Zaurus. Zaurus is difficult to get hold of these days though. I'd google around for "linux pocketpc" and see what state things are at if I wiere you - personally I haven't tried Linux on one for ages.
[10:33] <Arafangion> familie: There's a fourth alternative in that you could use a  different tax program that works natively on linux.
[10:33] <FurryNemesis> that's all I can find atm, am looking for more pages
[10:33] <Qodosh> SlimeyPete: ok, thanks!  have you heard anything about the nokia 770?
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> no, sorry
[10:34] <FurryNemesis> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[10:34] <eliphas_> hello
[10:34] <FurryNemesis> that is a more general guide
[10:34] <FurryNemesis> hello
[10:34] <familie> Arafangion: which one? There is a veryy good one in Germany calles WISO and it is the best with videos and a "real" Wizard, my father is using this for years now
[10:35] <familie> the vmware thingy sounds nice, may i try this?
[10:35] <Qodosh> SlimeyPete: Thanks anyways. My I ask why you stopped using linux on a handheld? :)
[10:35] <Arafangion> familie: Sure, but you require a windows installation CD.
[10:35] <SlimeyPete> Qodosh: I just got bored of using a handheld ;)
[10:35] <familie> Arafangion: I got all sorts of them no problem ;)
[10:35] <familie> !vwmare > familie
[10:35] <Arafangion> familie: Then go to vmware.com (Or is it .org?), and get the free vmware server.
[10:35] <JD> thx man, i have already read that, but
[10:36] <familie> Arafangion: okay, thank you I'll look
[10:36] <JD> somebody ever toldme something about PPP, but i don't know what it is
[10:36] <familie> its .com
[10:36] <FurryNemesis> oooh
[10:36] <FurryNemesis> ok
[10:36] <familie> JD: Point to Point Protocol. Protocol encapsulating a connection to a TCP/IP network through a modem and a telephone line.
[10:37] <FurryNemesis> It's (someone correct me if I'm wrong) the protocol used by your modem
[10:37] <familie> FurryNemesis: full ack
[10:37] <FurryNemesis> yep
[10:37] <FurryNemesis> sniped :p
[10:38] <JD> ah, ok, but
[10:38] <JD> i'm not and advanced user, and i have to keep on studing taht
[10:38] <JD> that
[10:38] <familie> Arafangion: and WinXP will run properly on VMWare?
[10:38] <FurryNemesis> I did it once before I got a router
[10:38] <FurryNemesis> It is doable, just take it slowly
[10:39] <Thirtysixway> I run windows98 on vmware fine
[10:39] <FurryNemesis> I too knew nothing
[10:39] <Ahadiel_> familie, I prefer VirtualBox
[10:39] <Arafangion> familie: Sure.
[10:39] <skoenman> if the apt-get doesnt want to work and you cant ping www.google.com but you can ping people on lan how do i fix it ...dns is setup correct
[10:39] <familie> Ahadiel_: pro/cons for this one?
[10:39] <Ahadiel_> it takes up less resources as opposed to VMWare
[10:39] <Arafangion> familie: Just don't install Vista.
[10:39] <familie> I basically need it only for one application
[10:39] <Ahadiel_> familie, easier setup IMO
[10:39] <familie> Arafangion: hello no ;)
[10:40] <familie> Ahadiel_: is it in the reps?
[10:40] <Ahadiel_> I have 1 gb of ram, compiz fusion running, and I can run WIndowsXP fine in VirtualBox
[10:40] <Ahadiel_> familie, yes
[10:40] <slytherin> familie: What application?
[10:40] <Arafangion> familie: Be aware that even though VMware claims to support 3D, it only does so on windows.
[10:40] <familie> slytherin: "WISO" It is a Multimedia Application for makin the Tax Report here in Germany. The best app for this.
[10:40] <JD> yeah i'm pacient with that, thx for the advise!
[10:41] <Thirtysixway> vmWare runs slow for me
[10:41] <Thirtysixway> :\
[10:41] <skoenman> if the apt-get doesnt want to work and you cant ping www.google.com but you can ping people on lan how do i fix it ...dns is setup correct
[10:41] <Arafangion> Thirtysixway: It likes RAM.
[10:41] <Ahadiel_> Thirtysixway, try VirtualBox
[10:41] <familie> skoenman: sudo dhclient
[10:41] <slytherin> familie: Wow. multimedia application for tax reports? What does it do? Play songs in background? :-P
[10:41] <Thirtysixway> Is it in apt-get?
[10:41] <JD> if i know something about it i'll publish it on ubuntu-es
[10:41] <Ahadiel_> Thirtysixway, yes
[10:41] <haru> how do i change the default device for alsa
[10:41] <lil-g-man> hello people!
[10:41] <familie> slytherin: nope it is a famous tv show and a lawyer is explaining the  new laws and stuff in videos
[10:41] <lil-g-man> good morning (in my timezone)
[10:42] <familie> lil-g-man: 10.42 am :)
[10:42] <skoenman> familie what does that do???
[10:42] <Thirtysixway> I'll probably try it then, but not right now ;x
[10:42] <Arafangion> familie: I suggest upgrading to teh very latest wine first.
[10:42] <lil-g-man> familie: 11.42 :)
[10:42] <haru> how do i change the default device for alsa ??
[10:42] <Arafangion> familie: What version of wine do you have currently?
[10:42] <skoenman> familie
[10:42] <slytherin> haru: Right click on speaker icon in panel. Open Volume Control. File->Change Device
[10:42] <skoenman> k that works thanks how do i get it back to static adress???
[10:42] <lil-g-man> does anyone know how to mute laptop's speakers but get sound from the headphone jack?
[10:43] <haru> slytherin, :i selected USB device there and totem and system sounds play fine..
[10:43] <Arafangion> lil-g-man: Impossible, usually.
[10:43] <JD> hey, how can i see the specifications of my procesor??
[10:43] <haru> slytherin, : however alsamixer still says default device not found
[10:43] <yanp> off topic: How would you pronounce the letter "L" if you were to type it using a real word?  Like 'real' is close to "ill"
[10:43] <haru> slytherin, alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[10:43] <lil-g-man> arafangion: great :)
[10:43] <skoenman> familie ????
[10:43] <slytherin> haru: Don't have much idea.
[10:43] <Arafangion> yanp: "real" is quite different to "ill", but that'd depend on the accent.
[10:43] <haru> how do i change the default device for alsa ??
[10:44] <astro76> yanp, el :)
[10:44] <yanp> Arafangion: I guess so..nevermind.
[10:44] <slytherin> lil-g-man: I think you can mute PCM. That way you will hear sound only from headphones.
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> what exactly do I have to remove from my system so that vmware-server will install? I only installed vmware-player, and that has already been removed (twice) with --purge and still I cannot install vmware-server because it is complaining that vmware already exists?
[10:44] <Arafangion> yanp: It all depends on the accent and listener.  There is an alphabet used for this, though - the phonetic alphabet.
[10:45] <lil-g-man> slytherin: if i mute PCM i lose sound completely
[10:45] <lil-g-man> slytherin: u mean mute it in alsamixer right?
[10:45] <slytherin> lil-g-man: I don't use alsamixer. I use GUI. I think there must be some option for headphone jack sense.
[10:46] <familie> skoenman: sorry i searched the xp cd :/
[10:46] <slytherin> lil-g-man: Right click speaker icon in panel and open Volume Control. In Edit->Preferences see if you can find Headphone Jack Sense.
[10:46] <familie> skoenman: try sudo gedit /etc/networking/interfaces

[10:48] <skoenman> familie im using server interface but ill do that just now
[10:48] <m310107> Hi there, am trying to get my 2 eth cards up. Can ping the router (<IP_ADDRESS>) but not outside. Any ideas?
[10:48] <lil-g-man> slytherin: nope no headphone jack in the list
[10:48] <skoenman> familie do you set it to static that ....??
[10:48] <magi> hi everyone!
[10:48] <magi> I have one problem
[10:48] <JD> tellme magi
[10:48] <HexJam> guys, i noticed when it run apt-get it says "The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: <packages>" Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.   -- But the thing is, I use some of these packages, should i really issue that command?
[10:48] <slytherin> lil-g-man: What is the list then?
[10:48] <pkakkar> Is there someway i can start sshd on remote shell. I am not able to enter my remote shell as i sshd is not running after reboot
[10:49] <Vivisector> Hi everyone, I just installed Gutsy on a macbook pro, and I'm not getting any sound.  I installed Amaork and the codecs, and I can see the visualizations playing with the shoutcast station, but I dont hear any sound.  I dont hear any login sound either.  Does anyone know how to fix this?
[10:49] <Arafangion> HexJam: Obviously not, which is why it doesn't remove it by default ;)
[10:49] <robin> no 'deb' command,why?
[10:49] <magi> Thanks. I logined the OpenVPN, and the ifconfig tell me I successed opened tap0 tunnel
[10:49] <lil-g-man> slytherin: master, pcm, linein, iec958, ext mic, int mic, intmic
[10:49] <magi> however, I found I still cannot access computers inside the VPN

[10:51] <RadicalME> g'd morning all!
[10:51] <magi> any suggestions?
[10:51] <lil-g-man> slytherin: yeah
[10:51] <Arafangion> HexJam: What it does is that if you install package Foo, but Foo requires Bar, then Bar is marked as "automatically installed".
[10:51] <skoenman> familie check prv
[10:51] <lil-g-man> slytherin: the name of the window is volume control preferencer
[10:51] <Travelocity> with regards to grub if u have a SATA DEVICE and a ATA harddrive and SATA is always first to boot, what what be teh designation of teh ATA device ie: (hd0,0)
[10:52] <JD> have you tray to do a ping to another computer?
[10:52] <lil-g-man> slytherin: maybe i should update alsa?
[10:52] <slytherin> lil-g-man: Which version of Ubuntu?
[10:52] <HexJam> Arafangion: I see, handy i suppose if you want to slim down your system, but in this case i think it would probably destroy mine! Thanks for the advice!
[10:52] <lil-g-man> slytherin: 7.04
[10:52] <magi> JD: yes I've tried. however, not successful.
[10:53] <Jordan_U> HexJam, To add to Arafangion's comment, there is a package called "ubuntu-desktop" that exists only to depend on other packages that are useful for a Gnome desktop, if this is removed then all of the packages that it depended on will be marked as automatically installed but no longer needed
[10:53] <slytherin> lil-g-man: I am surprised why that option is not there.
[10:53] <Selsi> This is an appropriate help channel?
[10:53] <lil-g-man> slytherin: i'm screwed :(
[10:54] <slytherin> Selsi: yes

[10:55] <skoenman> m310107
[10:56] <Selsi> From what I have read
[10:56] <JD> selsi,in wich partition didi yu install ubuntu?
[10:56] <cew> yes yes
 that must be a signal :P
[10:56] <Selsi> it is caused by low version Gparted

[10:56] <skoenman> m310107 yeah i goty it working with dhcp
[10:56] <Selsi> where ntfs is /dev/sda1
[10:57] <cew> basa alien yo
[10:57] <skoenman> m310107 gonna try and go back to static now
[10:57] <JD> ok, tell me again your problem?? you think you 've corruted the ntfs partition?
[10:57] <m310107> @skoenman: i'm keeping to static for now
[10:57] <magi> JD: yes,I can ping my own computer successfully. I am using an ADSL connection.
[10:57] <Selsi> basically, and I am having trouble getting an updated nftsprog for edgy
[10:57] <cew> I g tell mi goblek
[10:57] <slytherin> Travelocity: State your problem
[10:57] <skoenman> yeah i just needed to update sources
[10:57] <astro76> cew, what language are you speaking?
[10:57] <cew> no problem
[10:57] <magi> JD: and I can access the internet. however, not my VPN computer.
[10:58] <cew> ancenne
[10:58] <Travelocity> Does the fact that qa OS is installed on a SATA harddrive change it's designation in grub?
[10:58] <Travelocity> menu.1st
[10:58] <JD> uhmm, have you checked that you ip is part of the VPN group?
[10:58] <m310107> @skoenman static should be easier as long as all computers in the net keep to the rules
[10:59] <m310107> @skoenman but I can't get beyond the router ...
[10:59] <magi> JD: yes, in the ifconfig, I found the VPN group IP in part "tap0".
[10:59] <slytherin> Travelocity: Was it installed previously on another disk?
[10:59] <slytherin> Travelocity: I mean the OS you are referring
[11:00] <Selsi> Yea, I read up on people having similar problems with corruption, ntfsfix usually fixed it for them, however I am restricted to edgy (booting from a flash drive, interesting story) and the repositories posted on the forums no longer function
[11:00] <JD> but you are sure that you ip is in teh domain of the VPN, right?
[11:00] <SlimeyPete> Travelocity: if you're using grub to boot two different OSes from SATA and PATA disks, try swapping the disk IDs in menu.lst
[11:01] <skoenman> m310107 had same thing also could not get past router to internet but can see computers on nework
[11:01] <SlimeyPete> (there's a known bug which has been around for a while now)
[11:01] <magi> JD: yes, it is in the VPN domain. actually I am trying to access the VPN of my school, so I confide about the IP.
[11:01] <Travelocity> no....I have a windows harddrive and a linux harddrive, I've installed the linux harddrive just now and am trying to add grub, however I need to edit menu.1st, I'm trying to figure out if /dev/sda/ is designated (hd0,0) still and if /dev/hda1/ would be designated (hd1,0)?
[11:01] <JD> selsi, but you can't get into win??
[11:01] <magi> JD: it is in "tap0" if I use openVPN, or "ppp1" if I use vpnc
[11:01] <Travelocity> @sly
[11:02] <Selsi> nope
[11:02] <msjones> hi
[11:02] <slytherin> Travelocity: I believe your assumption is correct
[11:02] <JD> uhmm look,how didi you create your etx3 partition?
[11:02] <msjones> anybody know if kismet supports the IPW3945?
[11:03] <m310107> @skoenman hmm... wonder if it is /etc/network/interfaces setting... dns setting
[11:03] <Selsi> Vista reacts interestingly to a corrupt ntfs journal, it half loads and fails on the driver crcdisk.sys if you are interested
[11:03] <Travelocity> k sly
[11:03] <skoenman> m310107 im gonna have look now
[11:03] <Selsi> apparently the rescue disk fails at the same place, but since this computer has no CD rom drive, its not really an option anyway
[11:03] <lil-g-man> slytherin: would updating alsamixer fix the problem of not seeing headphone in volumemixer?
[11:04] <Selsi> flash disk with edgy was the only functioning boot i can get on this computer
[11:04] <Selsi> and its ntfsfix option cant mount ntfs =(
[11:05] <m310107> @skoenman /etc/resolv.conf settings: have nameserver [IP of gateway]  [newline]  search [home domain in my case home.xx]
[11:05] <skoenman> hmm ???
[11:05] <skoenman> m310107
[11:06] <m310107> @skoenman yeah?
[11:06] <skoenman> m310107 you need to run dhclient
[11:06] <skoenman> and then do /etc/init.d/networking restart
[11:06] <JD> uhmm, well, i don't know vista so much, let me see what i can find!!
[11:06] <skoenman> m310107 mine is working now
[11:07] <Selsi> i have some links for you if you want
[11:07] <m310107> @skoenman dhclient... for DHCP. So you've got a dhcp server somewhere, probably on gateway/router..

[11:07] <Selsi> actually exactly
[11:08] <skoenman> m310107 do that then yoou just do the restart worked for me'

[11:12] <linopil> some channels have uBOTu disconnected
[11:12] <mrga_cro> i compile it, and when i click execute, a just get that everything is fine. i use OpenLDev
[11:12] <Selsi> hmmmm
[11:12] <linopil> nay particular reason?
[11:12] <UB`> I have some icons with wrong resolutions
[11:12] <Travelocity> Anyone know if the following is the correct command to install grub on /dev/sda using infro from /mnt/hda1/root/boot/grub using "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/hda1/root /dev/sda"
[11:12] <linopil> >any
[11:12] <UB`> they are blurred
[11:12] <spiroo> Can I boot Ubuntu from USB? :P
[11:12] <Jordan_U> spiroo, Yes
[11:13] <spiroo> without to change to boot from it in BIOS?
[11:14] <spiroo> I do not have permissions to BIOS
[11:14] <Selsi> so you want me to try chkdsk?
[11:14] <spiroo> and where do I lay it in USB. I have an U3 Cruzer?
[11:14] <JD> yes,
[11:14] <JD> try it,
[11:14] <osfameron> mrga_cro: I don't know OpenLDev, you might get better support from their mailing lists.  But if your program was supposed to output something, say to the console, check that that was output.  If it didn't have any output, then add it (for testing)
[11:14] <SliMM> i have a problem with ubuntu 6 lts
[11:14] <Selsi> I am not sure how to do that within ubuntu
[11:15] <spiroo> JD: cool, how do I do?
[11:15] <spiroo> where should ISo be in USB?
[11:15] <_Shade_> hi there
[11:15] <mrga_cro> i have output, Hello World,
[11:15] <JD> what?? spiroo
[11:15] <pkakkar> How can do autologin in ubuntu 7.04
[11:15] <SliMM> actually, i think it's grub, it doesn't boot: Error 21, selected disk does not exist.
[11:15] <spiroo> JD: Where or how do I boot Ubuntu from the USB?
[11:15] <_Shade_> how do i share the internet connection between linux and windows? How to set it up?
[11:16] <JD> you have a laptop or desktop?
[11:16] <magnetron> !install | spiroo
[11:16] <ubot3> spiroo: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[11:16] <spiroo> JD: PC
[11:16] <SliMM> Pici: please? :-)
[11:16] <Jordan_U> _Shade_, Over ethernet or with a virtual machine?
[11:16] <jetscreamer> pkakkar: the login setup in the system menu
[11:17] <spiroo> okay, go to go now
[11:17] <pkakkar> jetscreamer, through commands i have remote shell no graphical view..
[11:17] <JD> OK, WELL, when you turn on the pc, you should hit f2 to open teh bios menu
[11:17] <_Shade_> Jordan_U: ethernet
[11:17] <Jordan_U> _Shade_, Install Firestarter, it makes internet sharing easy
[11:17] <osfameron> mrga_cro: then if that output is made then your program worked.  Your IDE may have a console view somewhere (check in the manual).  Otherwise try running the executable from the command line and see if it outputs to the console there.
[11:17] <josiah> !repos
[11:17] <ubot3> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:17] <jetscreamer> pkakkar: then edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf appropriately
[11:17] <Selsi> How would one go about getting the latest ntfsprog on edgy?
[11:18] <pkakkar> jetscreamer, which line any idea?
[11:18] <_Shade_> Jordan_U: thanks, i will try
[11:18] <josiah> any good startup guides for kubuntu/ubuntu? Information on adding repositories and which ones to add etc etc?
[11:18] <Selsi> thats being the tricky part, usually with the latest ntfsprog, one can ntfsfix without errors
[11:18] <_Shade_> Jordan_U: and could you look at this link please?
[11:18] <Jordan_U> _Shade_, You may also want to install dhcp3-server to let Ubuntu assign an IP to the windows box
[11:18] <_Shade_> the script gives me an error
[11:18] <Vivisector> does anyone know how to fix the speakers on a macbook pro?
[11:19] <Vivisector> headphones work, but not the built in speakers
[11:19] <_Shade_>  iptables v1.3.6: Bad state `RELATED '
[11:19] <mrga_cro> ok
[11:19] <mrga_cro> thanks
[11:19] <Selsi> http://opensource.apress.com/article/163/taking-a-look-at-vista-part-iii <--- the link to people discussing my problem, incase you missed it
[11:19] <lil-g-man> vivisector: i've got a laptop and i've got a problem with sound as well, when i plug in the headphones i get sound from laptop speakers and headphones.... and it sucks cuz i didn't find any good support on the web :(
[11:20] <jetscreamer> pkakkar: under [daemon] , TimedLoginEnable=true TimedLogin=username TimedLoginDelay=86
[11:20] <jetscreamer> is how i have it set
[11:20] <JD> i'm busy for a moment, i'll come back in 5 minutes
[11:20] <_Shade_> Jordan_U: will i have a peer connection available as well? you know with samba shares etc
[11:20] <pkakkar> jetscreamer, will it login immediately
[11:20] <jetscreamer> the 'just autologin' is a little different, man gdm.comf
[11:20] <RadicalME> hi all
[11:20] <Selsi> they come up with pretty straight forward solutions, but I am having trouble getting their updated software for edgy, private repositories are gone
[11:20] <jetscreamer> set it to a value less than 86
[11:20] <jetscreamer> try 1
[11:21] <Jordan_U> _Shade_, I would assume so, but I am not certain
[11:21] <pkakkar> jetscreamer, okay
[11:21] <cirrus_> lil-g-man: Run "sudo alsaconf" in a terminal, use spacebar to mute/unmute channels on your sound card until you get a combo you like...
[11:22] <giany911> does anyone know how to enable / flashing windows/
[11:22] <giany911> in the taskbar?
[11:23] <Jordan_U> Selsi, I have only skimmed the link you gave but Vista has a built in partition resizing option, and NTFS has been changed with Vista IIRC
[11:23] <Selsi> I see
[11:24] <daniele_982> hello all!!!! i've installed softbeep but i not understand how it found and the man is very small. Sameone can help me?
[11:24] <garryFre> I have a friend had similar problems. The vista stored the drive parameters, and if any of it changed, it would refuse to boot, you would have to repair it and do some extensive editing and then re-activate it
[11:24] <_Shade_> Jordan_U: what about the dhcp3-server... do i need to set it up as well?
[11:24] <Jordan_U> cirrus_, I think you mean alsamixer, and sudo is not needed ( or desired )
[11:24] <Jordan_U> _Shade_, No, just install the package and select the DHCP option in firestarter
[11:24] <garryFre> In his case, his drive fried, so he got an identical sized drive, and tried to restore the image, and it was fubar
[11:24] <Selsi> people post later on that they resized through ubuntu and it produced the same problem
[11:25] <garryFre> til he dis ome editing i
[11:25] <cruise1> hello
[11:25] <Selsi> I am having minor success installing ntfsprog 1.13.1 from source though
[11:25] <garryFre> til he did some editing, it would not boot. I don't have the link, but I remember it was a pain in the butt.
[11:25] <Selsi> so this may fix the problem

[11:27] <cruise1> i am having issues setting up my usb wifi dongle, it seems to fail to connect as a usb device as prism54usb fails with error 110
[11:27] <Selsi> so i went ahead and used gparted, reported success
[11:27] <Selsi> but killed the ntfs journal

[11:48] <TMM> hi all! I've got a question: I have two sites separated by a fairly slow link that have the NFS homedirectories for all the users in the network, now, the amount of users are increasing and I'd like to be able to asyncronously mirror the homedirectories of one  server onto a local server here, it would be find if that only happens once every night or something. I can't really use rsync as it would destroy the changes on one of the sides of the mirror
[11:48] <TMM>  during sync
[11:49] <RadicalME> my sound works while playing youtube movies...
[11:50] <RadicalME> just not in the movie player.. the one that comes with ubuntu
[11:50] <magnetron> TMM: rsync is smart, you can configure it to use the latest version of a file.
[11:50] <magnetron> RadicalME: can you play mp3 files
[11:50] <RadicalME> umm

[12:07] <TMM> magnetron, OK, I'll just test it :)
[12:07] <tjs_> G'day, sorry if this is easily found on google but I'm in failsafe terminal atm.. I downloaded the latest fiesty desktop image at work and just installed it on my inlaws machine, install went fine but GDM cannot start gnome, it says libjpg.so.62 has an invalid elf header
[12:07] <magnetron> TMM: remember to use --update
[12:08] <magnetron> TMM: also try with --dry-run
[12:08] <Kira> I have two directories and I suspect that some of the files with the same file names are identical. I used "openssl dgst" to generate a file containing SHA digests of the files from one directory. How do I verify the files in the other directory?
[12:09] <TMM> magnetron, thanks. I'll try with a couple of directories :)
[12:09] <riaal_> kritzstapf, sounds resonable
[12:09] <frindou> hello can you help me
[12:10] <pawan> hi
[12:10] <pawan> just got a new upgrade notification for ubuntu
[12:11] <magnetron> !ask | frindou
[12:11] <ubot3> frindou: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:11] <frindou> thanks
[12:11] <frindou> i can write my password in terminal
[12:12] <frindou> what i i do
[12:12] <frindou> i cant
[12:12] <kritzstapf> frindou: you password wont show, just type.
[12:12] <frindou> i try
[12:12] <frindou> but
[12:21] <frindou> i can write all words but if it ask me for enter my password
[12:21] <frindou> i cant write it
[12:21] <frindou> i change to ubuntu i find it verry good
[12:21] <magnetron> frindou: even if you don't see any stars, it will recieve your password anyway.
[12:21] <dwa> frindou: just type it in and press enter
[12:21] <dwa> it'll work
[12:21] <frindou> ok i try thank my friends
[12:21] <aa^way> hey, i really hate playing counter strike with 10 fps or something that, is there any programs what should allow me to make my monitor refreshrate little bigger? ( it lets me set 75 Hz only, but perhaps 80 Hz would help alittle or even 85.. ) and any programs to overclock in linux? im ready for everything expect for new hardware :( to get more fps, ive also tweaked my graphics to zero.
[12:21] <SlimeyPete> aa^way: refreshrate won't affect your FPS (unless youre using vsync, I guess)
[12:21] <frindou> because im begging in ubuntu
[12:21] <magnetron> aa^way: what graphic card do you use?
[12:21] <aa^way> magnetron: Nvidia geforce mx 440
[12:21] <oMish> What is /usr/bin/esd ?
[12:21] <oMish> What pkg is it ?
[12:21] <daniele_982> hello all! someone know softbeep??? i've read the man, documentation but it not found.I not understand
[12:21] <magnetron> aa^way: maybe your hardware just isn't enough
[12:22] <dwa> aa^way: what fps do you get in windows?
[12:22] <aa^way> dwa: well it was pretty much 123 fps ( not constant tho, changed to 30-40 when i saw much players in cs , but it was enough ) now its going to 10-20
[12:23] <kritzstapf> riaal: http://phpfi.com/257853
[12:23] <dwa> then you probably misconfigured your video drivers in linux
[12:23] <dwa> should be about the same as in windows
[12:24] <aa^way> dwa well it kinda is but running cs through wine takes pretty much memory and so on
[12:24] <CyberMad> what is minimum memory that require to running ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn
[12:24] <CyberMad> my ubuntu is very slow
[12:24] <dwa> i haven't tried it in a while but i didn't notice much difference between games in windows and in linux
[12:24] <kritzstapf> CyberMad: how much memory do you use?
[12:24] <magi> oh
[12:24] <CyberMad> and how to check memory?
[12:24] <CyberMad> kritzstapf yes how?
[12:25] <CyberMad> wait.. i do google
[12:25] <frindou> dwa can you give me site for ubuntu
[12:25] <dwa> a site for what frindou?
[12:25] <kritzstapf> CyberMad: cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal
[12:26] <frindou> for learn about ubuntu
[12:26] <kritzstapf> or just "grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo".. grr ;D
[12:26] <Jordan_U> frindou, help.ubuntu.com
[12:26] <CyberMad> hehe thanks dude
[12:26] <CyberMad> wait a minute.. i check it
[12:26] <kritzstapf> okay
[12:26] <frindou> ok thanks sahbi
[12:27] <dwa> frindou: ubuntuforums.org is also a very good resource
[12:27] <frindou> ok
[12:27] <frindou> thanks
[12:28] <JakeConnor_> helllllooooo cocky ubuntu users!
[12:29] <kritzstapf> JakeConnor_: smoked some crack?
[12:29] <pawan> hi
[12:29] <CyberMad> it's 239836 kB, the processor is AMD Duron 2600+
[12:29] <JakeConnor_> kritzstapf: yeah, good stuff
[12:29] <magnetron> !o4o | JakeConnor_ kritzstapf

[12:29] <JakeConnor_> apt-get more-crack
[12:29] <kritzstapf> CyberMad: shouldnt be very slow
[12:30] <frindou> dwa i wanna installer a driver what i do
[12:30] <dwa> a driver for what frindou?
[12:30] <kritzstapf> CyberMad: maybe some process has a high cpu load?
[12:30] <CyberMad> well, i install microsoft windows 2000 and XP before and that computer, and faster than ubuntu
[12:30] <JakeConnor_> magnetron: i just came in saying hello... kritzstapf is the one bringing up crack :P
[12:30] <CyberMad> do i need to tweak something
[12:30] <frindou> for ati
[12:30] <CyberMad> i just use default installation
[12:31] <frindou> ati-driver-installer-8.40.4-x86.x86_64
[12:31] <kritzstapf> CyberMad: you might start top on a terminal and check if there are processes with high cpu load or high memory usage
[12:31] <bullgard4> What is a 'Linux source tree'? See for example http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-linux-kernel/
[12:32] <CyberMad> does upgrade the memory to 512 MB will affect much the speed?
[12:32] <SlimeyPete> bullgard4: it's the source code for the kernel
[12:32] <CyberMad> i just run skype, gaim, mozilla firefox (open yahoo mail)
[12:32] <dwa> frindou: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI check out that document
[12:33] <CyberMad> sometime i open OO.org Writer
[12:33] <kritzstapf> CyberMad: im using 512MB and its just fine, but 256MB should be enough for a default installation also
[12:33] <bullgard4> SlimeyPete: I disagree. If this was true, then there would not be a need for another name.
[12:33] <frindou> ok dwa
[12:33] <SlimeyPete> bullgard4: often, projects are organised so that there is a "trunk" (the main source) and some "branches" (specialised or unstable versions of the source)
[12:33] <frindou> thanks
[12:33] <SlimeyPete> bullgard4: that sort of logic doesn't apply in I.T. ;p
[12:34] <linuxor> HI, I need to enlarge some pictures (zooom) without losing quality, which software is the best ? thx
[12:34] <dwa> linuxor: that's impossible
[12:35] <CyberMad> kritzstapf do you do something like tweak the performance?
[12:35] <dwa> but try the gimp
[12:35] <kritzstapf> except from vectorgraphics like svg ;)
[12:35] <kritzstapf> CyberMad: no
[12:35] <dwa> true kritzstapf :)
[12:35] <linuxor> dwa: I've tried gimp but I lose quality
[12:35] <kritzstapf> CyberMad: what exactly is slow on your machine, starting apps?
[12:36] <pkakkar> Where in graphical view i can start stop services..?
[12:36] <dwa> linuxor: you can't resize images without losing quality
[12:36] <kritzstapf> linuxor: the original picture does not contain the information for higher resolution, the programm resizing it does not know either
[12:37] <kritzstapf> the only way is interpolating and that way the picture gets more and more blury
[12:38] <linuxor> dwa: kritzstapf: I do not remember but Ive seen it in windows
[12:38] <dwa> linuxor: i don't think any windows program can do such magic either
[12:38] <kritzstapf> you may have seen it on tv when they use a webcam picture to scan fingerprints or sth
[12:39] <pawan> how to install audacious plugin
[12:40] <linuxor> dwa: kritzstapf: http://www.benvista.com/
[12:40] <frindou> dwa it ask me enter password i can write it i try and i try

[12:41] <reallyjoel> How can I set a certain application to always end up in a specific desktop when I start it?
[12:42] <dwa> frindou: it's the same password you use to log in
[12:42] <bullgard4> SlimeyPete: You are wrong. Even Linux version 0.01 had a source tree, see http://kerneltrap.org/node/14002.
[12:43] <SlimeyPete> bullgard4: Yes. A tree with just a trunk, I imagine.
[12:43] <dwa> linuxor: looks impressive but it's still using algorithms to zoom in, the quality is not perfect
[12:43] <dwa> i'm not sure if such a program exists for linux
[12:44] <kriser223> hi i have a problem with usb any thing i plug in doesn't initiate for me to use can any help
[12:44] <pawan> hello
[12:44] <linuxor> dwa: ok thx friend, by the way I can use this prog with wine ^_^
[12:45] <reallyjoel> How can I set a certain application to always end up in a specific desktop when I start it?
[12:45] <IndyGunFreak> reallyjoel: i don't think there is a way to do that.
[12:45] <kritzstapf> reallyjoel: stop repeating
[12:45] <dwa> linuxor: no problem, good luck with the app :)
[12:46] <bullgard4> SlimeyPete: You are imaging, but not facing facts. The source I cited explicitely spakes of sub-directories.
[12:46] <bullgard4> speakes
[12:47] <SlimeyPete> bullgard4: Why are you taking such a combatitive tone?
[12:47] <frindou_> dwa it same problim i cant write my password
[12:47] <tjs_> Hi, still having this issue, newly installed feisty, from the iso on the website, wont start any desktop, says invalid ELF header for libjpeg.so.62
[12:48] <SlimeyPete> bullgard4: bits of the tree have to be stored on disk. They areoften stored in subdirectories, yes. Or else a revision control system might choose to store them some other way.
[12:48] <pawan> hello
[12:48] <hypodyne> gday all
[12:49] <kriser223> can anyone help my laptop can find the usb sockets and recognise things are being inserted but i just cannot access or use things i connect there
[12:49] <hypodyne> is there an easy way to use the md5sum.txt file on the ubuntu cd to actually check the files on the cd?
[12:50] <b00gab00> hypodyne: md5sum -c md5sum.txt  (in the directory on the CD)
[12:50] <hypodyne> cheers
[12:50] <magnetron> what are you connecting to the USB ports, kriser223?

[12:55] <Jordan_U> RouteWay, What do you mean "with old linux distro on same partition"?
[12:55] <kritzstapf> kriser223: check what happens when you plug in the reader and when you plug in the card
[12:55] <pescez> hello, can somebody tell me which are those files that linux checks out when at boot time it says "reading files needed to boot"? because lately my computer takes a lot of time (like 1  minute or more) on that step... and i'd like to solve this problem!! thank you!
[12:56] <kriser223> the last line on it says "usb 4-4: device not accepting address 5, error -110"
[12:56] <hypodyne> okay so I have verified that the md5sum.txt file is not modified and that the hashes in the file also are okay..
[12:57] <hypodyne> is there anything i am missing?
[12:57] <kritzstapf> kriser223: can you paste the complete output, or at least everything related to this device?
[12:57] <kriser223> there is something about unlink  after wrong irq.
[12:57] <kriser223> you wantit on paste bin
[12:58] <kritzstapf> yes

[01:04] <chalkie1983> hey guys, im having some difficulties getting ubuntu to install on my machine, the disc wont load for some reason, and the net one which does it through dos keeps crashing when trying to detect os
[01:04] <zot> hi
[01:05] <_imran_> b00gab00, when i type mplayer into terminal it just gives me a list of controls
[01:05] <b00gab00> _imran_: not just "mplayer" but "mplayer -vo xv path/to/your/moviefile"
[01:07] <termitor> hello
[01:08] <Jordan_U> chalkie1983, The text based installer does not use DOS :)
[01:08] <spiroo>  OKay here we go again. How do I bot from an U3 USB?
[01:08] <spiroo> *boot
[01:08] <chalkie1983> Jordan_U: whats the text based installer??
[01:09] <Jordan_U> chalkie1983, The net install CD uses a text based installer, ie it does not have a full GUI
[01:09] <Jordan_U> !alternate | chalkie1983
[01:09] <ubot3> chalkie1983: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[01:10] <_imran_> b00gab00, it doesnt work
[01:10] <b00gab00> _imran_: then i don't know
[01:10] <_imran_> b00gab00, ok
[01:10] <chalkie1983> Jordan_U where do i find this alternative cd?
[01:10] <terraces> hi. I'm trying to install a rpm file on my new ubuntu box. Yet, it tells me I have missing dependency, but the mentionned files are on my server. what should I do ?
[01:10] <Pici> !rpm | terraces
[01:10] <ubot3> terraces: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[01:11] <Jordan_U> chalkie1983, There is a check box for it when you go to download the installer
[01:11] <jrib> terraces: what program are you trying to install?
[01:12] <Geek_> terraces: any specific reason why you can't use apt, a deb or compile it from source?
[01:12] <chalkie1983> Jordan_U: thankyou very much, thats been a great help i shall try that now, currently downloading at 870kbps
[01:12] <chalkie1983> shouldnt be too long
[01:13] <Jordan_U> chalkie1983, np
[01:13] <dany_76> ciao
[01:13] <terraces> jrib , Geek_ : the soft I want to install is available only on rpm (there's a tgz onlly for freebsd and solaris) : http://www.franz.com/products/allegrograph/index.lhtml
[01:14] <terraces> I'll try with alien to see if that works better that rpm -i or yum re. dependencies

[01:21] <magnus__> salve

I have to run `telinit 3` (sic!) to run all the daemons listed in /etc/rc3.d/ -- `telinit 2` leads to "unknown", too. apt-get dist-upgrade returns "0 ..., 0 ..., 0 ..., 0 ..." so everything should be in a proper state. Any idea which pkg to fix and how?
[01:23] <charlie> Pici, i can't see it in the list when i go to add to panel
[01:25] <Pici> charlie: Sorry then, perhaps someone else knows :)
