[05:43] <troy_s> kwwii: Tell me that you added a little complexity to the fela kuti wallpaper.
[11:01] <kwwii> troy_s: actually I was going to use your version :p
[13:59] <troy_s> kwwii: YIKES.  It needs a tidy... that was a PoP.
[14:03] <kwwii> troy_s: right, I fixed up the brown bg and made the stuff in the background a bit more transparent
[14:03] <kwwii> anyway, it is just a test :p (and it is already submitted so it is too late now!)
[14:03] <troy_s> kwwii: Yeah the palettizing is what I was probably getting at.
[14:04]  * troy_s outs.
[14:04] <kwwii> see you
[14:05]  * kwwii heads off to pick up a valentine day present for the little woman
[15:55] <kwwii> erm
[15:55] <kwwii> funky
[21:23] <Rapouc> hello there


[06:56] <dpm> good morning all
[07:48] <PaulW2U> y
[07:51] <davidcalle> Morning o/
[08:27] <svij> morning
[08:27] <Kilos> hi svij davidcalle
[08:28] <svij> hi Kilos
[08:37] <elacheche> Hey!
[10:30] <popey> davidcalle: did you say we have no snaps that do audio yet?
[10:38] <daker> anyone knows who is responsible for discourse.u.c ?
[10:38] <popey> define "responsible" :)
[12:03] <davidcalle> popey: scummvm should give you audio, if you let it access pulseaudio (I don't recall trying it in devmode, though)
[12:06] <popey> ok
[12:06] <popey> my mame one is segfaulting now, which is progress from not starting at all
[12:45] <davidcalle> popey: can you ack https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/click-apps/5092/rev/2/ ?
[13:05] <davidcalle> popey: https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/click-apps/5092/rev/3/
[13:32] <popey> davidcalle: I can't at the moment, sorry
[13:32] <davidcalle> popey: np, that's nothing urgent :)
[13:46] <daker> popey: responsible for the hosting, i can't open the site (fastly.net issues)
[13:54] <popey> daker: pretty sure it's marcoceppi
[13:56] <popey> daker: https://discourse-cdn.global.ssl.fastly.net/ubuntu/assets/application-140617837c7bf2e17718f04614d323d810b7a8862a3e162acf4417945b9bf314.js the problem?
[13:57] <daker> now it's works
[13:57] <popey> yay
[14:40] <davidcalle> dpm, hey hey, can you ack https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/click-apps/5092/rev/3/ ?
[14:42] <dpm> done :)
[14:44] <davidcalle> dpm: yay, feel free to test it (devmode required, though, as it downloads the file into your current dir)
[14:46] <dpm> ok :)
[15:18] <jose> popey: hey, would you say the brochure I sent your way was good enough so I can send it to legal for revision?


[11:05] <Vilhelms> I'm trying to run Beryl, but whenever I load with Xgl it gives me a white screen and I'm not sure why. I even uninstalled beryl completely to make sure it wasn't it inflicting with Xgl and I still got a white screen. Could someone please help me figure out what is going on? I'm on edgy with fglrx on an ATI Xpress 200
[11:05] <Vilhelms> Thanks
[11:05] <paradroid> train: how about sudo grub-install /dev/hda
[11:05] <mjg> pike.. start here... https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/edubuntu-software-survey
[11:05] <shmeelAway> alright still not working
[11:05] <Jester626> Anyone familiar with M$-Visio to advise me on a good linux alternative. I have looked at Kivio and Dia but they are not suitable for database design like visio is
[11:05] <Pelo> Vilhelms,   for beryl questions ask in #beryl
[11:05] <ardchoille> Vilhelms: Beryl support in #ubuntu-effects.
[11:05] <Vilhelms> Pelo, The issue isn't beryl
[11:05] <shmeelAway> do you guys think that if i uninstalled ubuntu and reinstalled it'd work? i currently am running both gnome and KDE
[11:05] <Pelo> Jester, http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html
[11:05] <Vilhelms> ardchoille, The issue isn't beryl, its Xgl giving me problems
[11:06] <Jester> Pelo: thx
[11:06] <ardchoille> Vilhelms: Ah, ok
[11:06] <Jester626> Pelo: Thanks I'll check it out
[11:06] <pike_> mjg: ok. slashdot has made me paranoid about such things
[11:06] <ompaul> Jester, look again at dia you just need to get the right stuff in there
[11:06] <Jester> ompaul: will do
[11:06] <Jester626> ompaul:  Like what?
[11:06] <Pelo> Vilhelms,  I think that ati cards require  axgl , not xgl.  the #beryl ppl will know better
[11:06] <Pelo> sorry Jester  blame nick complete
[11:06] <GoClick> If I start a 6.10 machine with a USB drive attached to it, will it automout it? If it doesn't, where is the device normaly?
[11:06] <Jester> =P
[11:06] <Vilhelms> Pelo, okay thanks
[11:07] <Jester626> ok, two Jester's :)
[11:07] <ompaul> Jester626, the last time I ran it I was in that space
[11:07] <paradroid> shmeelAway: So, what happens, is that you log in and get kicked back to GDM?
[11:07] <shmeelAway> yes
[11:07] <Jester626> ompaul:  Does it allow you to input field names and then set up realtionships?
[11:07] <shmeelAway> it worked just one time, and beryl ddin't work
[11:07] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Do you have 3D-effects installed?
[11:07] <shmeelAway> when i tried it, it kicked me out
[11:07] <ompaul> Jester626, have not used it in two years let me look
[11:08] <shmeelAway> paradroid, so you think that i should configure it to allow beryl right now?
[11:08] <shmeelAway> i don't know what else you mean by 3d effects
[11:08] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Actually I was wondering if it might be Beryl causing you trouble. :)
[11:08] <waseem> how do you change the resolution on your computer?
[11:08] <Pelo> waseem,   menu > system > prefs > screen rez or someting
[11:09] <shmeelAway> paradroid, i'm not sure, but i didn't change anything involving beryl
[11:09] <shmeelAway> no updates no nothing
[11:09] <shmeelAway> just the xconf update
[11:09] <shmeelAway> but that update might have wiped out what i previously added for beryl
[11:10] <ompaul> Jester626, I can do stuff there, it looks functional to me - try it
[11:10] <ZoOlMaN> hi all, I lost my boot
[11:10] <ZoOlMaN> how can I restore it back!
[11:10] <shmeelAway> grub?
[11:10] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: heh changed the slot now nothing
[11:10] <Pelo> ZoOlMaN,  lost your grub menu ?
[11:10] <ZoOlMaN> yes!
[11:11] <Pelo> ZoOlMaN,  what is the last thing you did before loosing it ?
[11:11] <ZoOlMaN> yes...I installed windows so it deleted the mbr record
[11:11] <pike_> !grub | ZoOlMaN
[11:11] <mon^rch> I am trying to install vmware but after a couple of fails and uninstalls when I try to install it again it fails saying that it is already installed (I know it's not) is there a way to FORCE it to install??
[11:11] <Pelo> ZoOlMaN,  I think you can resintall grub from the live cd
[11:11] <paradroid> shmeelAway: Hm, reconfiguring xserver didn't do anything for you...
[11:11] <pyr0000> can i play drm files on ubuntu? or strip the drm off?
[11:11] <ZoOlMaN> grub-install?
[11:11] <shmeelAway> paradroid, not really
[11:12] <ZoOlMaN> wats the aprobrite command
[11:12] <shmeelAway> same thing
[11:12] <shmeelAway> i will try and change it to allow beryl
[11:12] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: now when I modprobe I get nothing
[11:12] <Pelo> mon^rch,  you can try force removing it ,  search the hdd and manualy delete all instance of vmware you find
[11:12] <shmeelAway> maybe that will do the trick
[11:12] <paradroid> shmeelAway: ;)
[11:12] <wrox> how can i make my xchat not to automatically going to this network/channel after startup every time?
[11:12] <temporaryname> Firefox generates a crash report each time I boot, anyone know why?  Didn't have this problem till firefox upgraded it's self.  I would generally think it was due to add ons, but removing my add-ons didn't help a thing.
[11:12] <sirkism_> can anyone name another gnome docking program?
[11:12] <PriceChild> Priest-of-Psi, the guide isn't working? :( I'm not sure sorry...
[11:12] <sirkism_> something like the kiba dock? i tried installing in on fawn and it keeps giving me errors
[11:12] <ubotu> ZoOlMaN: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:12] <daren> leave
[11:12] <wrox> temporaryname: start Firefox from command line and see the output
[11:12] <Landon> Hey all, I can't seem to get my esd to stop running. I'll kill it, and then 1 minute later it'll be running again, and I can't figure out which program it is that is causing the problem. I need to kill it so I can run audacity. If anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it
[11:13] <fghj> what does -files 50000 -dcache 10000 -stat 15000 -daemons 5 -volumes 250 mean? (I need to increase some of these numbers to get better performance; right now, matlab takes forever to load, I'm guessing because it is trying to hit lots of libraries)
[11:13] <Pelo> sirkism,  I think there is a small start bar in gdesklet
[11:13] <sirkism_> nevermind, i just answered my own question
[11:13] <paradroid> ZoOlMaN: There is a nice project, the Super Grub Disk for doing all kinds of nice things. http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/
[11:13] <aimci> hola
[11:14] <ZoOlMaN> thx , checking all that :D
[11:14] <arnie_> hi all
[11:14] <DigitalNinja> I just installed Feisty Fawn. Can someone tell me how to get the "codec wizards"?
[11:14] <Priest-of-Psi> PriceChild: can you paste the guide again?
[11:14] <mweichert> using the debian installer, when configuring my wireless network I only have the option of specifying a WEP key? Is there anyway to input a WPA-Personal Passphrase?
[11:14] <PriceChild> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=153935
[11:14] <aimci> buenas noches o buenos dias!!
[11:14] <Landon> Or does anyone know of a good audio editor aside from Audacity?
[11:15] <arnie_> i have just installed ubuntu and am wondering if its possible to install the cube effects on the desktop ?
[11:15] <pyr0000> drm in ubuntu?
[11:15] <DigitalNinja> arnie_: What version of Ubuntu did you install?
[11:16] <arnie_> 6.10
[11:16] <EADG> Is there a console web browser that will display pictures? I'm using lynx atm.
[11:16] <PriceChild> arnie_, #ubuntu-effects Compositing is NOT for beginners.
[11:16] <arnie_> i managed it on open suse 10.2
[11:16] <DigitalNinja> arnie_ : Make sure you have 3D working. Once you have that take a look at beryl
[11:16] <temporaryname> from command, firefox starts fine, just seems to be after I reboot that I generate the crash
[11:17] <DigitalNinja> arnie_ : You could install Feisty Fawn. That comes with 3D support.
[11:17] <PriceChild> arnie_, support in #ubuntu-effects
[11:17] <DigitalNinja> Or I should say a 3D desktop
[11:17] <arnie_> is feisty fawn another release ?
[11:17] <PriceChild> arnie_, feisty is not finishedf
[11:17] <temporaryname> 3d desktop?  sounds kool..
[11:18] <arnie_> so i need the latest driver for m,y nvidia fx5200
[11:18] <benkillin> how do I run an app written for SCO UnixWare under Ubuntu 6.10
[11:18] <djm62> benkillin: do you have the source code?
[11:19] <Usher> hey guys, I'm installing Ubuntu on my desktop PC right now.. whats the deal with "Select a City in your Country and Timezone" part of the installation?
[11:19] <benkillin> all I have is some sort of binary
[11:19] <benkillin> its a .Z file
[11:19] <paradroid> shmeelAway: You could of course also do some reconfiguring of other things like Nautilus, Metacity, Gnome-Panel... all that stuff related to the desktop. ;) But I'm blindly guessing right now.
[11:20] <shmeelAway> i think it's beryl
[11:20] <cafuego_> benkillin: `uncompress'
[11:20] <temporaryname> arnie_: had that issue last night..  the guys over in effects directed me to albertomilone.com
[11:20] <shmeelAway> that might be the reason KDE works not gnome
[11:20] <Agrajag> benkillin: that's a compress archive, probably.
[11:20] <Usher> help help emergency
[11:20] <cafuego_> benkillin: or use 'znew *.Z' to convert it to .gz
[11:20] <temporaryname> http://albertomilone.com/index.html
[11:20] <Droce> I have a quick, and quite probably stupid question, I'm currently installing (running this off the disk) and it says "No root file system" I thought this was "/" which I have, can anyone give me a quick hand?
[11:20] <shmeelAway> completely uninstalling now and reinstalling, see if it works
[11:20] <arnie_> thanks mate
[11:20] <Agrajag> benkillin: if it's a binary you'r pretty much SOL.
[11:20] <benkillin> oh
[11:20] <benkillin> what about WINE
[11:20] <chewychomp> my 5700 overheats too much so i switched to 5200, uninstalled nvidia-glx and restricted kernels, then i reconfigured xserver(full reconfigure and  tried -phigh), and nvidia-glx does not work only nv
[11:20] <djm62> Agrajag: possibility of using vmware player?
[11:20] <Usher> my city and timezone aren't listed on the installation map
[11:20] <temporaryname> I ended up using Envy anyway..   too much head ache trying to get dual screen support thay way..
[11:21] <Agrajag> djm62: does unixware run on x86 machines?
[11:21] <temporaryname> headache*
[11:21] <PriceChild> Usher, use a city near with the same timezone
[11:21] <chewychomp> im on fiesty, envy doesnt work
[11:21] <temporaryname> oic
[11:21] <PriceChild> chewychomp, feisty in #ubuntu+1
[11:21] <Usher> PriceChild: there aren't any, lol
[11:21] <djm62> Agrajag: no idea, it's old school as far as I'm concerned
[11:21] <PriceChild> Usher, there is :)
[11:21] <mitah> hi
[11:21] <julian1223> hi, I'm trying to get edgy installed on my 2Ghz MacBook Pro and I keep getting throw to a Failed to start x server thingy, any ideas?
[11:21] <mitah> can someone help me?
[11:21] <Usher> PriceChild: who do I talk to about having Little Rock, AR, USA added to the map ?
[11:21] <PriceChild> Usher, use the nearest city with the same timezone
[11:22] <EnsignRedshirt> !someone | mitah
[11:22] <Agrajag> benkillin: if SCO Unixware runs on x86 processors, and that is an x86 binary you have, you might be able to run unixware in VMWare and run the program in that.
[11:22] <ubotu> mitah: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:22] <Usher> julian1223: I've had that happen to me twice, once installing edgy and once installing feisty
[11:22] <benkillin> that's too much overhead
[11:22] <benkillin> this is a RAID management app for my RAID 1 setup
[11:22] <benkillin> I have UnixWare and Windows downloads only
[11:23] <Agrajag> benkillin: then it's not going to work
[11:23] <julian1223> know what I can do to actually see a GUI? I spent 3 hours making boot camp happy so I could try it, a BSODy screen is somewhat anticlimactic ;)
[11:23] <benkillin> damn
[11:23] <benkillin> thanks anywqay
[11:23] <Landon> Hey all, I can't seem to get my esd to stop running. I'll kill it, and then 1 minute later it'll be running again, and I can't figure out which program it is that is causing the problem. I need to kill it so I can run audacity. If anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it
[11:23] <clouder`grr> will apt-get tell me if I need to reboot after an upgrade?
[11:23] <Usher> does Ubuntu support RAID? with winXP I have to have RAID drivers on a floppy disk and I don't have any :(    do I need them for Linux too ?
[11:23] <DigitalNinja> Where can I find the "codec wizards" for Feisty Fawn?
[11:23] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, #ubuntu+!
[11:23] <PriceChild> DigitalNinja, #ubuntu+1 sorry
[11:23] <DigitalNinja> PriceChild: thanks
[11:24] <kevin> HELLO
[11:24] <Usher> kevin: Hi
[11:24] <kevin> anyone know what i need to setup bluetooth
[11:24] <[doctor] > hi, can anybody say me last kernel version in Ubuntu-7.04?
[11:24] <kevin> i got the fileshareing program from synaptic, but theres no configuration for it
[11:25] <Droce> I have a quick, and quite probably stupid question, I'm currently installing (running this off the disk) and it says "No root file system" I thought this was "/" which I have, anyone know what I did wrong?
[11:25] <PriceChild> [doctor]  #ubuntu+!
[11:25] <PriceChild> [doctor]  #ubuntu+1 sorry
[11:25] <kevin> :d
[11:25] <Usher> ***kevin: huh?
[11:25] <kevin> i got the fileshareing program from synaptic, but theres no configuration for it
[11:25] <PriceChild> kevin, you on feisty?
[11:25] <Usher> click on System>About GNOME
[11:26] <kevin> umm, not sure
[11:26] <kevin> how do i tell?
[11:26] <paradroid> Droce: Are you in the middle of the installation process?
[11:26] <PriceChild> kevin, nevermind, what filesharing program?
[11:26] <Usher> kevin: click on System>About Ubuntu
[11:26] <Droce> yes paradroid, I just ran GAIN off the disk
[11:26] <frozenhan1> Hello
[11:26] <kevin> PriceChild,  I have a bluetooth device , i need to set up
[11:26] <paradroid> Droce: Which version are you installing? 6.10/7.04?
[11:27] <Droce> 6.04
[11:27] <paradroid> Droce: And what installer are you using? WIth GUI or text-based?
[11:27] <frozenhan1> Is here anyone german?
[11:27] <PriceChild> Droce, use you're on 6.04?
[11:27] <Droce> GUI
[11:27] <Droce> yes pricechild
[11:27] <frozenhan1> If yes, Query please.
[11:27] <PriceChild> Droce, sure you're on 6.04?
[11:27] <Droce> that's the one I clicked, yes
[11:27] <linxeh> you mean 6.06
[11:27] <Droce> oh, sorry
[11:28] <Droce> I have a screenshot of the problem
[11:28] <Droce> http://img61.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotpf0.png
[11:28] <kevin> Usher,  im on edgy 6.10
[11:28] <waseem> hi i need some help installing ubuntu edgy
[11:28] <s25_> hey all, i just install linux-current the kernel as i reckon that should have smp support so my dual core will work (did some googling and that was what was suggested) How do I make it boot said kernel? Thanks
[11:29] <fghj> !ati
[11:29] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:29] <waseem> im manually partitioning the hard drive right now and i plan on installing windows later one
[11:29] <waseem> on
[11:29] <pike_> s25_: the generic kernel has smp support
[11:29] <frozenhan1> Can anyone help me with the formating of the hardrivedisks?
[11:29] <Usher> frozenhan1: I'll try, whats up?
[11:29] <kevin> well
[11:30] <kevin> no one here uses bluetooth?
[11:30] <s25_> pike_, Yes well after upgrading the system my dual core is no longer recognised (strange as this was not the result of doing this before)
[11:30] <frozenhan1> I'm trying to format the disks manually. And i am not shure if is's right.
[11:30] <Usher> kevin: bluetooth for what, I use it on my phone
[11:30] <paradroid> Does / need a primary partition and won't accept a logical one?
[11:30] <elvirolo> when i plug my usb drive in, it seems to be detected (all the right stuff appears in dmesg) but it is not mounted automatically
[11:30] <PriceChild> paradroid, /boot needs primary
[11:30] <kevin> Usher, to transfer files from my pc to my phone
[11:30] <gOLdenHaWK3D> hi all.
[11:30] <paradroid> PriceChild: Thank you. I will direct that answer to Droce ;)
[11:30] <Usher> frozenhan1: Are you dual booting?
[11:31] <OuZo> how can i install 32bit debs on a 64bit pc? thanks
[11:31] <Droce> ohh, I see, it's logical atm
[11:31] <Usher> kevin: Oh, I use a USB adapter for my phone for that sort of thing
[11:31] <paradroid> Droce: Did you get PriceChild's hint? Obviously the root file system needs a primary partition and won't be satisfied with a logical one.
[11:31] <kevin> Usher, i have a usb bluetooth device and a motorola razor
[11:31] <Usher> kevin: and I don't think my PC has bluetooth
[11:31] <pike_> s25_: id ls /boot  and if you have old kernel there gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and point it to a different kernel
[11:31] <frozenhan1> Yes, Win XP is on the first Partition. On the second is Data. I'f got a third and want to install it on this.
[11:31] <Administrator> Hi, i'm wondering if it's possible to install Ubuntu, or Debian on a system running windows.  I have a panasonic toughbook for work, but no docking station :-(
[11:31] <kevin> i just have the usb wireless adapter
[11:32] <kevin> Usher, ok thanks anyway
[11:32] <pike_> s25_: what i mean to say is ubuntu should have a number of kernel versions for you to try. apt-cache search linux-image
[11:32] <Droce> one other quick question, do I set up GRUB after I install linux?
[11:32] <s25_> thanks
[11:32] <Usher> frozenhan1: what version of ubuntu are you installing
[11:32] <PriceChild> Droce, the installer does that
[11:33] <Droce> thank you PC
[11:33] <GrueTamer> when i try to launch games in ubuntu, they crash the entire system 90% of the time.  my video drivers are updated as far as i can tell, but feel free to tell me im wrong.  does anybody have any ideas what to do?
[11:33] <Usher> frozenhan1: I think Feisty has a friendlier setup for managing the partitions and from WinXP than previous versions
[11:33] <Landon> Hey all, I can't seem to get my esd to stop running. I'll kill it, and then 1 minute later it'll be running again, and I can't figure out which program it is that is causing the problem. I need to kill it so I can run audacity. If anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it
[11:34] <Usher> esd?
[11:34] <frozenhan1> 7.03? Im not sure... 7.04
[11:34] <Landon> esd, something to do with sound
[11:34] <Droce> do I have to turn off GAIN while I install?
[11:34] <Usher> does 7.04 not walk you through everything step by step pretty simple? I thought they had improved it quite a bit
[11:34] <PriceChild> frozenhan1, Usher feisty in #ubuntu+1 please
[11:35] <pike_> GrueTamer: what do you mean by whole system? just X or what?

[11:37] <duelboot> Vorian, XFL fan, eh?
[11:37] <methodx> hello
[11:38] <Vorian> duelboot, yep :)
[11:38] <geraldhornsby> uhhhhhrghhhhhh -.-
[11:38] <lynucs> is there anyway to remove synaptics driver over synaptic without removing xorg??
[11:38] <UnixTitan> and the ones in /usr/share/icons/hicolor aren't the same
[11:38] <geraldhornsby> I cant seem to fix this damn thing
[11:38] <duelboot> heHATEme was the best name on the jersey, Vorian...so stupid, but yet so good, he actually played in the NFL I think
[11:38] <geraldhornsby> is there any way to fix api mismatch quickly with nvidia drivers?
[11:39] <geraldhornsby> or can anyone help me with my xserver stopping the GUI starting
[11:39] <PriceChild> geraldhornsby, install them properly
[11:39] <geraldhornsby> i need some help...it may take a while
[11:39] <duelboot> PriceChild, thx for the non advice
[11:39] <geraldhornsby> oh I have. its kaneda btw, me again
[11:39] <fghj> !ati
[11:39] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:39] <darx> whats the command to run the default bt client?
[11:39] <geraldhornsby> its an api mismatch
[11:39] <Vorian> duelboot, :)
[11:40] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: just ask the question
[11:40] <PriceChild> gene_, how did you install them?
[11:40] <PriceChild> argh
[11:40] <PriceChild> geraldhornsby, how did you install it?
[11:40] <geraldhornsby> i have installed, reinstalled the nvidia-gtx thing
[11:40] <Sherlockian> where would i configure my default essid, my wireless card connects to wrong ap at boot?
[11:40] <Nazo029A> have you tried envy?
[11:40] <Nazo029A> automated i hear
[11:40] <ikonia> gtx thing - why can people not take the time to report things properly
[11:40] <geraldhornsby> a forum reccomended i used an auto update
[11:40] <cafuego_> !envy
[11:40] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. This software is NOT supported by ubuntu and you will not receive aid for it here.  I have problem with findinf ftp server that's insatlled. Any ideas how can I check which ftp server is installed. I just know that the name incluedes ftp and first latter is A as advanced..
[11:40] <geraldhornsby> yes that was it!
[11:40] <duelboot> Sherlockian, you can do it in the gui or command line...
[11:41] <Sherlockian> or where would i put a script to excute commands at boot???
[11:41] <vassely> #ubuntu-lb
[11:41] <darx> jrib: thanks
[11:41] <Sherlockian> commandline
[11:41] <lynucs> !synaptics
[11:41] <ubotu> For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[11:41] <Sherlockian> i have no X
[11:41] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: if you know its "bloody" envy - why did you use the bad product
[11:41] <Sherlockian> duelboot: i have no X
[11:41] <geraldhornsby> it made my system bugger up with an api mismatch
[11:41] <geraldhornsby> i didnt know til it made it not work ^^
[11:41] <duelboot> Sherlockian, setup your /etc/network/interface with the proper info
[11:41] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: why did you not use the driver in the repo - as instructed on the ubuntu forums official howto
[11:41] <geraldhornsby> im a noob.
[11:42] <Sherlockian> duelboot: i can put wireless infomation in there - such as essid?
[11:42] <duelboot> Sherlockian, are you registered?
[11:42] <duelboot> yes
[11:42] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: so why did you not use the ubuntu howto rather than some random website if your a "noob"
[11:42] <Sherlockian> in forums
[11:42] <Sherlockian> not here
[11:42] <Megaqwerty> Will making a disk image make an exact copy of the drive (like cluster for cluster) ?
[11:42] <geraldhornsby> i had some installed but there was some conflict with nvidia settings and nvidia gtx
[11:42] <duelboot> check private Sherlockian, we'll discuss there
[11:42] <clouder`grr> How would I know if I need to reboot or not after doing $ apt-get upgrade ?
[11:42] <geraldhornsby> because i googled the problem and that said it would fix my problem
[11:42] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: thats explained in the ububntu howto
[11:42] <duelboot> register Sherlockian  and we'll take it private
[11:42] <Sherlockian> and i register where??
[11:42] <ikonia> I just don't get why people don't use the rich ubuntu resources and listen to stupid 3rd party unofficial sites
[11:42] <geraldhornsby> alright alright so i shouldnt have done it
[11:42] <geraldhornsby> but i need to fix it =]
[11:42] <Sherlockian> duelboot: under freenode?
[11:42] <ikonia> geraldhornsby: re-install ubuntu
[11:43] <PriceChild> ikonia, ?
[11:43] <duelboot> nevermind..hold one and I'll get it for you
[11:43] <IgorSobreira> i have a video .mpg...but i doens't play the song...just the image...anybody knows? i use totem...
[11:43] <Sherlockian> duelboot:  ok
[11:43] <ikonia> PriceChild: "I found a howto on this website" "I used auto tools" "I did this" - did you check the ubuntu website/howto/wiki/forum "no I just found this extenral site"
[11:43] <cafuego_> clouder`grr: if you did not get 1) a new kernel  2) a new libc6 or  3) a new dbus version - you don't need to reboot.
[11:43] <duelboot> Sherlockian, using encryption?
[11:43] <PriceChild> ikonia, reinstalling is kinda drastic...
[11:44] <Sherlockian> duelboot: no
[11:44] <duelboot> okay
[11:44] <clouder`grr> cafuego: thanks :D
[11:44] <duelboot> hold one
[11:44] <ikonia> PriceChild: agreed, bit it will get him back to a plain statee thats "known" rather than what a 3rd party site has broke
[11:44] <cafuego_> clouder`grr: And even if you did, a reboot isn't requiored until you think you want to *use* these new versions ;-)
[11:44] <CDC171> good evening
[11:44] <ikonia> PriceChild: I don't feel like debugging a 3rd parties "how to" to put him normal, if he's not got the dirvers installed yet, should be a quick re-install
[11:44] <Sherlockian> duelboot: the ubuntu community is so great....check this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo
[11:45] <Usher> is there such thing as RAID 0 in linux?
[11:45] <amorphous_> can anyone tell me why I cant put new apps in my startup list (sustem>preferences>session>startup programmes)
[11:45] <Sherlockian> duelboot:  about half way down
[11:45] <ikonia> Usher: yes
[11:45] <[A] GreSor> Can i have KDE on ubuntu ?
[11:45] <ikonia> [A] GreSor: yes
[11:45] <Sherlockian> duelboot: my forums queston just got answerd
[11:45] <Usher> ikonia: How do I go about setting that up ?
[11:45] <ikonia> Usher: use mdadm
[11:45] <Nazo029A> yes sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:45] <[A] GreSor> how, and is it recomendet ?

[11:45] <amorphous_> they just dissapear when i close the box :/
[11:45] <Nazo029A> &packages
[11:45] <Usher> ikonia: I've never heard of that, whats that
[11:45] <duelboot> Sherlockian, add the following to your /etc/network/interfaces...under your iface add....wireless-essid <your-essid>
[11:45] <ikonia> Usher: its a command
[11:45] <jrib> !kde > [A] GreSor    ([A] GreSor, see the private message from ubotu)
[11:46] <Usher> ikonia: Do it during installation or after?
[11:46] <jrib> [A] GreSor: yes, it's perfectly fine, you can have as many wm's as you want.  You just select it when you login by pressing the "options" button in the corner
[11:46] <Sherlockian> duelboot: thank you for your help, this must be the info i am looking for
[11:46] <ikonia> Usher: advanced installation - the installer will do it for you, set it up afterwards, you have to do it
[11:47] <looner> can any help me with raid 1
[11:47] <duelboot> Sherlockian, you're quite welcome
[11:47] <ikonia> looner: whats up
[11:47] <Usher> ikonia: How do I do that advanced installation? Alternate CD?
[11:47] <mwtb> My Fedora Core server install has died, so I've got an opportunity to refit with Ubuntu to match my laptop. The server acts as my personal webserver (Apache, running Wordpress, RoR and Django app installs), mailserver (postfix) and as my MythTV server. I also use the box to test my own web-dev work. My question is whether I should use the server edition or the desktop edition.
[11:47] <[A] GreSor> Jrabbit, thanks :)
[11:47] <Sherlockian> duelboot: the ubuntu community is really amazing - just to let everyone knw =)
[11:47] <ikonia> Usher: think its the server cd only
[11:47] <Usher> ah damn
[11:48] <Jrabbit> [A] GreSor: YW
[11:48] <JosefK> mwtb, for those needs, only the server
[11:48] <flodine> how much longer before feisty is released?
[11:48] <duelboot> Sherlockian, it's simply the best out there...there is none better
[11:48] <julian1223> I ask here because the people in +1 appear to be asleep ;), https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/95411 if Mike is saying a later build fixes it, where do I go for such a build?
[11:48] <jrib> mwtb: server, why are you considering desktop for that out of curiousity?
[11:48] <ikonia> julian1223: this is not fesity support - thats in #ubuntu+1
[11:48] <mwtb> JosefK: Thanks. jrib: I just wasn't sure about the mythtv stuff.
[11:48] <looner> ikonia i want to recover raid one
[11:49] <snama> hey whats up?
[11:49] <ikonia> looner: ok - so whats the problem, and what have you done so far
[11:49] <julian1223> I know, I've been in there for 25 minutes
[11:49] <jrib> mwtb: ah well, the same repositories are used, the initial setup is just different
[11:49] <ikonia> julian1223: great, wait for a response
[11:49] <snama> iam just curious, whats the age of an average desktop linux user?
[11:49] <looner> one of the hard drives had crashed bad sector
[11:49] <Usher> 22 here
[11:49] <ikonia> looner: ok
[11:49] <snama> average age*
[11:49] <looner> and we need to change it
[11:50] <looner> luckly we have raid one
[11:50] <ikonia> snama: please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:50] <ikonia> looner: ok
[11:50] <looner> how can we recover
[11:50] <snama> ok
[11:50] <ikonia> looner: take the hard disk out, put the new one in and resync
[11:50] <looner> can it work
[11:50] <Desp_> Package proftpd-common has no installation candidate
[11:50] <ikonia> looner: totally, I do it all the time
[11:50] <mwtb> jrib: Okay, if that's the case then server it is. A-downloading I go. Thanks.
[11:50] <amorphous_> anyone know why anything i put in system>preferences>session>startup programmes dissapears from the list???
[11:50] <looner> give me alink

[11:56] <BarronVon> jrib: I used this client on my m$ box called bitlord, it worked well
[11:56] <cafuego_> azureus is a ram-eating crashing awful *****
[11:56] <OuZo> can anyone help with this: configure: error: Cannot find GTK: is gtk-config in path? thanks

[11:56] <PriceChild> agresor, no
[11:56] <cafuego_> agresor: This isn't #warez thanks.
[11:56] <derrin> No ideas why ubuntu is not recognising my usb phone?

[00:49] <popey> who did you email?
[00:49] <wxl> popey: i emailed all the admins on launchpad through launchpad itself
[00:49]  * popey goes to see who they are
[00:49] <wxl> alanbell
[00:49] <wxl> davewalker
[00:50] <wxl> aaand i guess that's it

[00:54] <czajkowski> pleia2: this is very true
[00:54] <czajkowski> a lot of fun on team nights out
[00:54] <wxl> "Hey Alan!"
[00:54] <pleia2> hehe
[00:54] <czajkowski> pretty much ;)
[00:54] <wxl> "What" "What" "What" "What" "What"
[00:55] <wxl> oh i'm sorry this is ubuntu-uk i mean "Wot" XD
[00:56] <wxl> popey: suffice it to say, if you know who i should get in touch with, let me know
[00:56] <popey> well.
[00:57] <popey> Alan Bell is the point of contact, but he's not replied to mails I've sent him either.
[00:57] <wxl> it seems silly to imagine that the loco centered in the home of ubuntu would not be verified
[00:57]  * popey takes to twitter
[00:57] <popey> haha
[00:57] <wxl> and i mean there are a TON of people
[00:57] <wxl> it's not for lack of resources
[00:58] <popey> https://twitter.com/popey/status/671493559917412352
[00:58] <wxl> popey: december 7 is d-day, so if you start to get a hint of some movement, please contact the loco-council so we can give a little extra time
[00:58] <popey> and now we wait
[01:00] <wxl> thank you kindly popey
[01:02] <pleia2> no no, june 6th is d-day, december 7th is pearl harbor day :P
[01:03] <pleia2> ok, less trolling, more releasing UWN now
[01:24] <tsimonq2> pleia2: is it released yet? :D

[22:40] <tsimonq2> sorry


[13:52] <wrst> netritious: just bought my little girl a guitar... my wife may shoot me so if this is my last irc message been great knowing everyone :)
[13:54] <netritious> lol nice wrst
[13:54] <netritious> I bet she'll love it
[13:55] <wrst> got her a baby taylor, she is just 5 but seems inclined to really learn
[13:55] <wrst> already seeing signs she has a singing voice
[13:56] <netritious> thats awesome. mine is 14 now and plays vibraphone now, but wants to go back to snare already lol
[13:57] <wrst> drummers run deep in your bloodline ;)
[13:57] <wrst> I would rather them being making music than cheerleading or softball or whatever
[13:57] <netritious> Same here wrst
[13:58] <wrst> I have been absolutely amazed at the quality stuff available for linux now
[13:58] <netritious> wife didn't get it about band until she heard a parent say her son got a full scholarship playing band
[13:59] <wrst> I know someone now that got a full ride at UT
[13:59] <wrst> drummer btw
[13:59] <netritious> nice
[14:00] <netritious> wrst I mainly use linux for server. I guess I would use for desktop, but just don't need it I guess.
[14:01] <wrst> well... I had been using a macbook for music stuff but really had not found what I was looking for
[14:01] <wrst> tried abelton live 9 out, and it is a bit intimidating, want something to do some minor "real" recording and do more digital stuff
[14:02] <wrst> it is great but just a bit much, bitwig strangely enough was right in the middle, and also completely crossplatform,
[14:02] <wrst> have it on the macbook so if i need to travel I can have the same setup
[14:02] <wrst> linux just works so well to record when properly setup you can cut it down to an absolute bare minimum and only be running the software you need
[14:03] <wrst> I usually install something like fluxbox when I get really serious and have no desktop stuff getting in the way
[14:03] <wrst> ardour has improved carzily since I really got into this stuff last also
[14:28] <netritious> nice. One day I hope to have time for music projects again.
[14:28] <netritious> Occasionally I jam with my brother, but he is convinced there is only one good software and that's cubase.
[14:45] <wrst> it is good stuff
[14:45] <wrst> I have just been looking for price/usefulness etc
[14:45] <wrst> and I do like stuff that runs on ubuntu I just can't afford 2 or 3 macs
[14:45] <wrst> but bitwig is really impressive and the linux support is awesome
[14:45] <wrst> first class citizen
[15:46] <[Ubik]> FYI, if anyone is needing the latest Jessie in us-east-2 (Ohio), ami-77055f12 is the AMI ID. Debian hasn't made one available there yet, and I needed to spin up a box or two there...
[15:46] <[Ubik]> So I just copied their us-east-1 public AMI over and made mine public, any of you need to use it feel free.
