[03:26] <Eleaf> ic56, -r----x--t 1 www-data www-data 98008 2006-03-29 18:27 test.blend
[03:26] <dt-oz-gc> Eleaf, I agree with ic56, blend should be added to the group www-data, then the file should have 770 permissions,ie chmod ug+rwx, then blend can read and write the file by virtue of being in a group that has read and write permission.
[03:26] <ic56> Eleaf: to remove a file, you need *write* perm on the parent directory and *execute* perm on all the directories up to the root of the tree.
[03:26] <swoop> bimberi,  good luck to me! :)
[03:27] <Eleaf> ic56, up to the root tree?
[03:27] <illusions> bimberi who are you ubuntu god! damn your good
[03:27] <swoop> bimberi,  thanks ahhaha and.... how can i use kde instead of gnome
[03:27] <swoop> ?
[03:27] <Eleaf> ic56, so you mean home would have to have it as well?
[03:27] <nickrud> ugly permissions ;)
[03:27] <swoop> illusions,  yes he is! ahhahaahaa
[03:27] <bimberi> illusions: no, i've just done this a few times myself :P
[03:27] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, alright, I'll try that next
[03:27] <illusions> bimberi will you marry me?
[03:27] <swoop> bimberi,  lol haahaha
[03:27] <illusions> bimberi :P
[03:27] <bimberi> illusions: steady on :P
[03:28] <swoop> hhahaha
[03:28] <ic56> Eleaf: if the file is in /home/blend/www/upload then you need execute perm on /home /home/blend /home/blend/www /home/blend/www/upload.
[03:28] <swoop> bimberi,  you, god of ubuntu, is it true that google will make a linux based in ubuntu:?
[03:28] <Eleaf> yikes
[03:28] <ic56> Eleaf: finally, you need write perm on just one directory: /home/blend/www/upload
[03:29] <ic56> Eleaf: no yikes.  Most directories have execute perm -- otherwise you wouldn't be able to ls them.
[03:29] <bimberi> swoop: (now cut that out!) they denied it, so it must be true!
[03:29] <Eleaf> ic56, will changing the permissions on home effect other user directories?  such as /home/user1 /home/me
[03:29] <dt-oz-gc> Eleaf, ic56's advice is correct: to remove a file, blend needs *write* perm on the parent directory and *execute* perm on all the directories up to the root of the tree. If its in the group www-data, it should get that permission by virtue of being in that group.
[03:29] <swoop> bimberi,  hmmm interestign
[03:30] <ic56> Eleaf: /home is already 755.  No change needed.
[03:30] <Snake__> Any grub masters in here?
[03:30] <ic56> Eleaf: yes, if you remove execute perm on /home , eg by setting it to 744 users will be unable to ls their own directories.
[03:30] <Eleaf> ic56, alright, how should I chmod this? /home = 775 /home/blend = 775 /home/blend/....
[03:31] <Eleaf> ah
[03:31] <illusions> bimberi  'sudo aptitude install libqt3-mt' i did that and it says
[03:31] <wastrel> drwxrwsr-x  4 root staff 4096 2005-01-14 23:51 /home/
[03:31] <ic56> Eleaf: why 775? Should 755.
[03:31] <wastrel> that's mine by default
[03:31] <Eleaf> oh
[03:32] <illusions> bimberi The following packages will be REMOVED:
[03:32] <illusions>   skype
[03:32] <rishi> what's up ubuntites
[03:32] <illusions> y/n
[03:32] <bimberi> swoop: no i have no idea really - http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=178600189&subSection
[03:32] <LathropWells> Hi rishi
[03:32] <illusions> bimberi The following NEW packages will be installed:
[03:32] <illusions>   libqt3-mt
[03:33] <rishi> i think i have installed ubuntu in some form about 10 times in the last week.
[03:33] <treyh0> there's nothing on ubuntuforums.org about k3bsetup2 being broken, and i saw that the debian bts blames it on an ubuntu patc
[03:33] <ic56> Eleaf: one cannot execute a directory the execute bit was reused.  On a directory it implements *search* permission -- it controls the right of users to descend through that directory.
[03:33] <treyh0> patch
[03:33] <swoop> bimberi,  hmm, ok!! i'll read it soon, just let me finish installing nvidia's driver
[03:33] <ic56> Eleaf: one cannot execute a directory so the execute bit was reused.  On a directory it implements *search* permission -- it controls the right of users to descend through that directory.
[03:33] <bimberi> illusions: hm, go ahead with it, you'll be installing skype again anyway
[03:33] <illusions> ok
[03:33] <arrick> Im back home now
[03:33] <dt-oz-gc> Eleaf, cd /home/blend ; chmod 750 www ; cd www ; chmod -R 750 *
[03:33] <rishi> hey you guys think i should install ATI's driver or fglrx
[03:34] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, ok..
[03:34] <ic56> dt-oz-gc, Eleaf: 750 bad idea
[03:34] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, should the chmod -R 750 * be on the last directory?
[03:34] <pianoboy3333> Anyone here ever tried using/compiling gtivo?
[03:34] <gfxstyler> ic56: hi again
[03:34] <ic56> $u3: did you find the answer?
[03:35] <ic56> gfxstyler: did you find the answer?
[03:35] <PwcrLinuxLive> Hello
[03:35] <dt-oz-gc> Eleaf, make that 770. 750 does not give write access to a group.
[03:35] <nickrud> rishi, a good rule of thumb is to use the distro's packages wherever possible. If you don't *need* the latest driver from ati for your card, stick with fglrx
[03:35] <Eleaf> humm
[03:35] <brandon_> Hello all novice user here looking for assistance with unresolvable "lib" dependencies
[03:35] <Eleaf> so confused! ;p
[03:36] <twirpie> im still getting nowhere with running games through wine and without, and also still having problems getting clamav up and running, any help please?
[03:36] <gfxstyler> ic56: yes
[03:36] <PwcrLinuxLive> How I can change the ppls's nick name so it's new version of Xchat, I wanted the same one in old version
[03:36] <gfxstyler> ic56: it was very easy actually
[03:36] <ic56> Eleaf: typically a ~/www directory needs to be publically readable. If you make it 770 (no perm for other) your webserver will be unable to access it u
[03:36] <gfxstyler> ic56: but you have to edit the gtkrc of your current theme
[03:36] <Eleaf> ic56, that's not my web dir
[03:36] <Eleaf> ic56, my main web dir is /var/www.  The php script just saves it to a directory in /home/blend
[03:36] <rishi> who would like to tell me if i should use ATI drivers or Fglrx?  anyone?
[03:36] <Eleaf> the uploaded file
[03:37] <nickrud> PwcrLinuxLive, click on the name next to the text entry line?
[03:37] <PwcrLinuxLive> okay
[03:37] <illusions> bimberi ok that is done
[03:37] <illusions> bimberi now next step?
[03:37] <twirpie> use ati as fglrx is prolly what screwed up my system
[03:37] <PwcrLinuxLive> Oh that's for nickname changes...
[03:38] <arrick> how to change the mouse settings to one click in ubuntu
[03:38] <arrick> ?
[03:38] <nickrud> brandon_, what libs?
[03:38] <rishi> twirpie: what?
[03:38] <ic56> Eleaf: the php script runs as a certain user and group.  That user and group needs search permission on the directories leading to where the file will be written.  Unless ~blend belongs to that group or that user, then you have to give search permission for other.
[03:38] <varicello> .br
[03:38] <rishi> arrick: it was in system > preferences?
[03:38] <arrick> ok
[03:38] <rishi> wasn't*
[03:38] <brandon_> libmad0, and linid3tag0
[03:38] <wastrel> we hates it
[03:38] <brandon_> libid3tag0
[03:39] <arrick> rishi, helps if I look doesnt it?
[03:39] <arrick> thanks
[03:39] <rishi> haha perhaps
[03:39] <ic56> gfxstyler: are you talking about ~/.gtkrc or about a file located somewhere else?
[03:39] <rishi> arrick: no prob
[03:39] <nickrud> brandon_, libmad0 is in main, no problem, but linid3tag0 doesn't show up anywhere; why do you need it
[03:40] <twirpie> how come i have desk top sounds and when playing videos and mp3s but not from the web like flash games?
[03:40] <Eleaf> ic56, alright.  (Wonders if I should just add blend and www-data to a group)  Will this be easier?
[03:40] <arrick> rishi there is not a setting for one click?
[03:40] <brandon_> trying to instal gstreamer0.8-mad
[03:40] <arrick> what next
[03:40] <nazty> how can i add a binary to update-alternatives --config
[03:40] <nazty> ?
[03:40] <illusions> bimberi sudo aptitude install libmad0
[03:40] <bimberi> illusions: sorry, was away, try reinstalling skype again
[03:40] <swoop> bimberi,  illusions  it was a pleasure to talk and be helped with both of you... thanks!!!
[03:40] <brandon_> or any meadi player for that matter its diffrent "lib" dependecny all around
[03:40] <PwcrLinuxLive> nickrud: this one is new version Xchat and Ubuntu 5.10 Live CD... I had the Live CD 4.10 that excatly I want use same themes of Xchat nicknames  for example  White < blue nick  white >  I use white foreground and black background.
[03:41] <dt-oz-gc> Eleaf, ic56, Maybe I would write the the file to /var/.../ or /tmp/... not /home/blend, ie to a common directory that is the store for the application... Or is blend an 'application only' account?
[03:41] <nickrud> twirpie, there's a couple of possibilities; http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats has some suggestions
[03:41] <rishi> twirpie: double click the volume icon and see if its all un muted
[03:41] <bimberi> swoop: cheers :)
[03:41] <rishi> what's everyone trying to install
[03:41] <PwcrLinuxLive> dark gray hard to see for my nick messages
[03:41] <gfxstyler> ic56: the file in your theme directory, for example /home/user/.themes/bla/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
[03:41] <gotaq> what is the regex for catching everything between /.cond1 to a .\ ??
[03:41] <illusions> swoop no prob but i know i was not much help lol
[03:41] <rishi> what is this libmad0 or something
[03:41] <nazty> how can i add a entry to update-alternatives --config?????
[03:41] <gfxstyler> ic56: then you need to add a few lines, should i send them to you via pastebin?
[03:41] <swoop> illusions,  but your intention was very nice! :) thanks!!
[03:41] <swoop> bimberi,  :) later!
[03:42] <pianoboy3333> Anyone ever heard of gnome-config?
[03:42] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, what do you mean?
[03:42] <nickrud> PwcrLinuxLive, ah, colors :) You can set them in Settings-Preferences-Interface-Colors ; I changed a few of the 'other colors' for a black background
[03:42] <rishi> pianoboy3333: are you talking about gconf-editor
[03:42] <illusions> bimberi sudo aptitude install libstdc++5' should i do that next?
[03:42] <nickrud> PwcrLinuxLive, and your text is color #30
[03:42] <swoop> bye :)
[03:42] <PwcrLinuxLive> okay hang on
[03:42] <dt-oz-gc> My understanding of /home is that it is intended for real users. Application users, eg postgres for the package/app of that named, are homed in /var/lib/[packageName]
[03:42] <rishi> illusions: what are you trying to install?
[03:43] <bimberi> illusions: ah, yes (sorry forgot that one)
[03:43] <pianoboy3333> rishi: I'm trying to compile gtivo, and it's looking for a /usr/bin/gnome-config
[03:43] <pianoboy3333> rishi: this is when I run ./configure
[03:43] <ic56> gfxstyler: my ~/.themes/ contains only . and ..   Yes, config lines much appreciated.  If < 30 lines, just /query ic56 and paste them to me via IRC.
[03:43] <illusions> rishi skype
[03:43] <rishi> pianoboy3333: i dunno, i've never messed with gtivo...you don't like mythtv?
[03:43] <rishi> illusions: ah...
[03:43] <pianoboy3333> rishi: what does mythtv do?
[03:43] <nazty> how can i add a entry to update-alternatives --config?????
[03:43] <dt-oz-gc> Eleaf, What is 'blend'?
[03:43] <gfxstyler> ic56: http://www.gfxstyler.de/screenshots/Screenshot.jpg    that's bold-menubars in action :D
[03:43] <gfxstyler> ic56: no its just 5 lines or something like that
[03:44] <rishi> pianoboy3333: essentially the same thing as a tivo? www.mythtv.org
[03:44] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, a user
[03:44] <illusions> bimberi so i think its just those 2 that need to be installed right?
[03:44] <DBO> am I supposed to have 20 or so "gnome-pty-helper" entries in my system monitor?
[03:44] <t1n_l0tus> *emoemo* My sound stopped working T_T.  My volume control reads out "No volume control elements and/or devices found" when I try to open volume control.  I have tried sudo gst-register-0.8 and su;gst-register-0.8 and in both cases re-logged in, but to no avail.
[03:44] <dt-oz-gc> A real user/person?
[03:44] <Kelsey23> Is the latest Ubuntu compatible with the HP PSC 2400 AIO
[03:44] <brandon_> Nickrud let see if i can paste the error i get
[03:44] <pianoboy3333> rishi: gtivo connects to the tivo box if it's hooked up wifi so you can get the programs that are on there...
[03:44] <nickrud> brandon_, , sorry I missed your messages; if sudo apt-get gstreamer0.8-mad fails, you have some sources errors
[03:44] <nickrud> brandon_, ok
[03:44] <brandon_> gstreamer0.8-mad:
[03:44] <brandon_>  Depends: libid3tag0 (>=0.15.1b) but it is not installable
[03:44] <brandon_>  Depends: libmad0 (>=0.15.1b) but it is not installable
[03:44] <dt-oz-gc> ... or a 'package'/'service'/'utility'
[03:44] <bimberi> illusions: yes, anyway the attempt to install skype will let you know for sure :)
[03:44] <Kelsey23> Is the latest Ubuntu compatible with the HP PSC 2400 AIO?
[03:44] <rishi> pianoboy3333: ohhhh...sorry dude, i don't even have a tivo
[03:45] <pianoboy3333> rishi: oh...
[03:45] <Eleaf> lol
[03:45] <illusions> bimberi ok thats done whats the next step
[03:45] <rishi> kelsey23: go to the ubuntu website and check hardware compatibility, it probably is
[03:45] <nickrud> brandon_, two lines, right on the edge :) you definitely have sources.list errors, you should go to !easysources
[03:45] <nickrud> !easysource
[03:45] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[03:45] <brandon_> ill give it a try
[03:46] <PwcrLinuxLive> nickrud: Hmm, I didn't find it, probably can be change in advanced settings, too complexited for me..
[03:46] <pianoboy3333> does http://www.gnome.org not work for anyone else?
[03:46] <LadyNikon> is there a .chm reader?
[03:46] <pianoboy3333> LadyNikon: sudo apt-get install xchm
[03:46] <nickrud> brandon_, enable everything above unofficial sources on that page
[03:46] <t1n_l0tus> Any idea why my sound stopped working, anyone?  I've tried google, but alas it helped me not.
[03:46] <illusions> bimberi sudo aptitude install libstdc++5 is installed
[03:46] <rishi> t1n_l0tus: there's nothing like that in the wiki?
[03:46] <nickrud> PwcrLinuxLive, menu bar, settings-preferences. Colors is right there on the left, click it
[03:47] <Eleaf> hmm
[03:47] <nazty> how can i add a entry to update-alternatives --config?????
[03:47] <t1n_l0tus> rishi, nothing that I saw, but I can check again.
[03:47] <bimberi> illusions: righto, try the dpkg command again
[03:48] <nickrud> nazty, from the man page: update-alternatives --install genname symlink altern priority [--slave genname symlink altern] ...
[03:48] <twirpie> bah this is way to anoying having to screw around with everything just to have one thing work properly. seems nothing works propperly without being tweaked or fixed.... im going back to windows..... thanks for all the help peeps take care
[03:48] <illusions> sudo dpkg install skype?
[03:48] <PwcrLinuxLive> nickrud: Foreground white and black background already in there for message boxes, nicklist and etc.. so need to change the channel nicknames like I am seeing your nick is dark green or something..
[03:48] <dt-oz-gc> Eleaf, i gotta go soon. Pvt chat?
[03:48] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, humm
[03:48] <arrick> illusions, get with Seveas about skype
[03:49] <arrick> there were some bugs he fixed
[03:49] <nazty> nickrud: there is a symlink there already
[03:49] <nazty> for irssi
[03:49] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, you there?
[03:49] <bimberi> illusions: 'sudo dpkg --install skype_1.2.0.l8-lubuntu3_i386.deb' (from the directory where the .deb is located.  Desktop?)
[03:49] <illusions> arrick i went to his site and i think i got the new one
[03:49] <pianoboy3333> !gnome-conf
[03:49] <ubotu> pianoboy3333: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:49] <pianoboy3333> !gnome-config
[03:49] <ubotu> pianoboy3333: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[03:49] <illusions> bimberi yes desktop
[03:49] <rishi> t1n_l0tus: what did you do just before your sound got effed?
[03:49] <arrick> ok
[03:49] <nazty> nickrud: update-alternatives --install epic5 irc ?
[03:50] <TheFaction20> How can i find out if my sound cards detected if no sound is coming out?
[03:50] <rishi> TheFaction20: double click the sound icon and see if your card is in the title
[03:50] <akamatos> hi, does anyone know where can i find skins for nautilus?
[03:50] <nazty> nickrud: update-alternatives --config irc :already exists i just wanna add epic5 to it
[03:50] <nickrud> nazty, why do you want to change the alternative for irssi anyway? (I'm suprised there is one in the first place)
[03:50] <nazty> i use epic
[03:50] <nickrud> ah irc
[03:50] <nazty> i was using epic4
[03:51] <dt-oz-gc> Eleaf, write into the pvt chat window/tab, not here.
[03:51] <brandon_> Nickrud once I enabled all above unofficial and it generates the list what do i do?
[03:51] <nazty> and it placed epic4 in update-alternatives
[03:51] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, you aren't registered
[03:51] <nazty> but i just compiled epic5 manually because there is no .deb for it
[03:51] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, identified
[03:51] <nazty> and i wanna add it
[03:51] <arrick> TheFaction20, did you get it going?
[03:51] <TheFaction20> arrick:i havent tried yet. im not sure what i wnat to do since it still is a family comp
[03:51] <TheFaction20> arrick: i might use our secondary comp which is kinda messed up
[03:52] <Eleaf> dt-oz-gc, ???
[03:52] <nickrud> brandon_, copy and paste the automatically generated sources.list to your desktop, and then sudo cp ~/Desktop/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:52] <rishi> TheFaction20: what kind of soundcard do you have?
[03:52] <arrick> ok
[03:52] <TheFaction20> rishi:creative
[03:52] <pianoboy3333> damnit! I wanna get on to gnome.org!
[03:52] <arrick> !language
[03:52] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[03:52] <nazty> nickrud: how would you add a entry to the preexisting table for update-alternatives --config irc
[03:52] <nickrud> nazty, a sec
[03:52] <orangey> hey all!
[03:53] <rishi> TheFaction20: i think you just have to play with the controls...i have a live 5.1 and it worked fine/
[03:53] <rishi> ?
[03:53] <PwcrLinuxLive> nickrud: did you get my last msg in here?
[03:53] <orangey> hey all

[03:53] <sgratra> Newbie question: Hi, can someone explaine the Ubuntu/Linux directory structure? I am used to windows and everything installing in C:\Program Files - is there an equivilant in Linux?
[03:54] <rishi> TheFaction20: to be honest..i have no idea..you might look in the system>preferences, maybe there's a sound menu
[03:54] <nickrud> PwcrLinuxLive, yes, on the text box preference page, untick colorized nicknames I think
[03:54] <wastrel> sgratra:  most programs will be in /usr/bin/
[03:54] <angustia> I just installed ubuntu, but I can't login... I most probably typed (and retyped) a password that's not the one I usually use. I don't feel like reinstalling the system, so I'm thinking of editing the passwd and shadow files
[03:54] <PwcrLinuxLive> okay hang on nick
[03:54] <nalioth> sgratra: you should always use your package manager to install things
[03:54] <frank23> sgratra: that was the most alien thing about linux when I started using it. There should be references about this online
[03:54] <illusions> bimberi ok dpkg: error processing skype_1.2.0.l8-lubuntu3_i386.deb (--install):

[03:54] <angustia> I have access to the files in windows. what should I change in passwd to have a known password to login in ubuntu?
[03:54] <HighHopes> Hello! I want to know how can I install "chkfontpath" in Ubuntu 5.10
[03:55] <nickrud> nazty, i installed epic4, and sudo update-alternatives --config irc  and select epic4

[03:55] <bimberi> angustia: boot into recovery mode (at the grub menu) and use 'passwd <user>' to set a new password
[03:55] <nemonic> there is no alternative for it
[03:55] <nemonic> just irssi and epic4
[03:55] <nemonic> thats because they were installed by synaptics
[03:55] <ubuntu> hallo
[03:55] <orangey> I'm trying to use firestarter, but it keeps flooding my /var/log/syslog file.
[03:56] <ubuntu> exit
[03:56] <orangey> how can i make it NOT talk to syslog?
[03:56] <nickrud> PwcrLinuxLive, then possibly xchat changed, I don't even remember the <> around nicks
[03:56] <nemonic> i just want to add /usr/local/bin/epic5
[03:56] <bimberi> illusions: are you in the right directory?  use 'ls' to make sure the file is there
[03:56] <angustia> bimberi: thanks... won't it ask me for the actual password?
[03:56] <frank23> sgratra: programs  in /usr/bin   libraries in /usr/lib,  configuration files in /etc, temp files in /tmp,  all your personal config and data files in /home/user
[03:56] <TheFaction20> rishi:is there a way i can see what my sound card may be named?
[03:56] <bimberi> angustia: no - it goes straight to a superuser prompt
[03:56] <PwcrLinuxLive> nickrud: yea, that's i like old one..
[03:56] <rishi> TheFaction20: does the computer currently work? without the live cd?
[03:56] <illusions> bimberi type ls in terminal?
[03:56] <TheFaction20> yeh
[03:56] <angustia> bimberi: cool. that's kind of unsafe though... but ok. I'll try
[03:57] <nemonic> nickrud: any clue
[03:57] <Eleaf> bash: ./configure: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
[03:57] <rishi> TheFaction20: the other thing is if you're running a live cd, it might have lil support for sound...but don't quote me
[03:57] <Eleaf> I'm getting this when trying to compile something
[03:57] <bimberi> illusions: yes, and see if the skype......deb file is there
[03:57] <_jason> Eleaf: that file was saved on a mac, you need to convert it
[03:57] <TheFaction20> rishi: ok
[03:57] <illusions> bimberi illusions@comcast:~/Desktop$ ls
[03:57] <illusions> skype_<IP_ADDRESS>-1ubuntu3_i386.deb  skype-<IP_ADDRESS>-fc3.i586.rpm
[03:57] <sgratra> frank23 - thanks! I also just did a search for file structure differences.
[03:57] <Eleaf> I searched in configure but didn't see anything regarding...
[03:57] <rishi> TheFaction20: what are you running on it natively?
[03:57] <Eleaf> _jason, oh really?
[03:57] <nickrud> nemonic, yeah a clue. a sec
[03:57] <illusions> bimberi yes it is
[03:57] <Eleaf> _jason, alright, what needs to be done?
[03:57] <TheFaction20> rishi:xp
[03:57] <illusions> bimberi i beleave
[03:58] <rishi> TheFaction20: haha does that mean you don't know?
[03:58] <rishi> TheFaction20: well, does it normally run windows?
[03:58] <nemonic> prolly update-alternatives epic5 irc
[03:58] <TheFaction20> rishi:yeah windows xp
[03:58] <wastrel> sgratra:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview    pretty basic but links to more detailed info
[03:58] <bimberi> illusions: gah, my pasted command was wrong ... try 'sudo dpkg -i skype_<IP_ADDRESS>-1ubuntu3_i386.deb'
[03:58] <_jason> Eleaf: make a backup first.  The try converting the files with 'sed -i s/\r// file' or search google for the problem and verify the solution :)
[03:59] <rishi> TheFaction20: well, you can check what soundcard you have via XP by going to the device manager
[03:59] <Eleaf> _jason, I'll try.  is file the "configure" file I need to convert?
[03:59] <sgratra> wastrel: beautiful - I appreciate it.
[03:59] <_jason> Eleaf: I don't know, probably all the text stuff
[03:59] <rishi> TheFaction20: in ubuntu, you might try system > Administration > Device Manager
[03:59] <illusions> bimberi ok its doing something lol
[03:59] <Eleaf> _jason, wha?  every file then? lol
[04:00] <HighHopes> Hello! I want to know how can I install "chkfontpath" in Ubuntu 5.10... please.. somebody can help me?
[04:00] <_jason> Eleaf: I have no idea, what are you compiling?
[04:00] <Eleaf> I still get that error
[04:00] <rishi> !chkfontpath
[04:00] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, rishi
[04:00] <Eleaf> _jason, the emulator "gens"
[04:00] <HighHopes> !chkfontpath
[04:00] <angelika> Hi  Anybody know how to make Ubuntu work with my Audigy 2 NX?
[04:00] <rishi> HighHopes: try looking through the wiki
[04:00] <rishi> i've never heard of that
[04:01] <illusions> bimberi ok no errors now
[04:01] <_jason> Eleaf: you can try dos2unix command, maybe that works despite it's name :)
[04:01] <illusions> bimberi I see it in applications>internet
[04:01] <HighHopes> rishi, no info in the wiki :(
[04:01] <frank23> Eleaf: for genesis? did you try dgen? it's in the repos. I never tried it though
[04:02] <PwcrLinuxLive> for ppl who own the Sony Vaio PCG GRZ610, it's everything fully compatible 5.10.. but mousepad need be turn off the ALPS.. I'm using USB mouse for awhile..  (using a live CD while my lappy HD's dead and plan to get new HD)
[04:02] <rishi> did you try sudo apt-get install chkfontpath?
[04:02] <pianoboy3333> Anyone know where to get the package/rpm of gnome-libs-devel or gnome-config?
[04:02] <Eleaf> frank23, I tried other genesis emulators and they work fine.  I need gens's netplay ability though ;/
[04:02] <HighHopes> rishi, yes... no package available.
[04:02] <nickrud> nemonic, try sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/irc irc /usr/bin/epic5 50
[04:02] <Eleaf> _jason, lol
[04:02] <rishi> HighHopes, have you opened up all the repositories?
[04:02] <wastrel> dos2unix should work for removing windowsish newlines
[04:02] <brandon_> Nickrud, let me show you what I typed and the error it gave me
[04:02] <_jason> wastrel: how about macs with ^M's
[04:02] <nickrud> nemonic, been a while since I looked at it, had to read the manpage agian
[04:02] <brandon_> brandon@LinuxToshiba:~$ sudo cp ~/desktop/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:02] <brandon_> cp: cannot stat `/home/brandon/desktop/sources.list': No such file or directory
[04:02] <frank23> Eleaf: maybe look in the forums for a post about gens
[04:03] <Eleaf> hmm, ok.
[04:03] <bimberi> pianoboy3333: install libgnome-dev  (tip: contents search on http://packages.ubuntu.com)
[04:03] <wastrel> _jason:  think so not sure
[04:03] <nickrud> brandon_, desktop with a Capital D , and I hope you saved the file as sources.list :)
[04:03] <HighHopes> rishi, yes...
[04:03] <_jason> I'll try making one :)
[04:03] <pianoboy3333> bimberi: THANKS~
[04:03] <brandon_> nickrud yes i saved it =) and thanks (my mind is still windows)
[04:03] <rishi> HighHopes: so you have universe and multiverse repos?
[04:04] <rishi> HighHopes: how about downloading it from whatever site you found it
[04:04] <HighHopes> rishi, let me see... how can I be sure of that?
[04:04] <PwcrLinuxLive> nickrud: does the dapper will be release in the future will have a mouse settings for ALPS (tapping/scroll sides)?
[04:04] <nickrud> brandon_, np, that's something we all do (I have a symlink from desktop to Destop just for that error)
[04:04] <Eleaf> I guess somebody make a deb file frank23 .  should I trust it? ;p.  I just want a binary, I don't want to install it system wide.
[04:04] <rishi> sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:04] <Xenguy> _jason: if you have vi or vim, :%s/Ctrl-V Enter//g   ?
[04:04] <_jason> Xenguy: ctrl-v M right?
[04:04] <nickrud> PwcrLinuxLive, I have not a clue, I'm not an ubuntite :)
[04:04] <rishi> booyah!
[04:05] <PwcrLinuxLive> nickrud: okay :)
[04:05] <_jason> Xenguy: ctrl-v ctrl-m rather
[04:05] <HighHopes> rishi, I read /etc/apt/sources.list and yes... multiverse and universe are enabled as repos...
[04:05] <Xenguy> _jason: no, press Enter key instead (if like on d0ze)
[04:05] <pete_> hey everyone. I need some help badly
[04:05] <Xenguy> _jason: that works too
[04:05] <rishi> nickrud, you are an ubuntite, just a fellow newbie like me maybe
[04:05] <_jason> Xenguy: ah I see, that generates too.  Cool, never knew that
[04:05] <pete_> like, literally holding my hand in the process kind of help
[04:05] <Xenguy> _jason: :-)
[04:05] <nickrud> nemonic, I forgot one thing, I assumed the location and name for epic5
[04:05] <illusions> bimberi I think it worked
[04:05] <rishi> HighHopes: have you tried trying to just download one from the internet?
[04:05] <brandon_> Nickrud, when i typed it that time and pressed enter   brandon@LinuxToshiba:~$ sudo cp ~/Desktop/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:05] <brandon_> brandon@LinuxToshiba:~$
[04:06] <bimberi> illusions: :)
[04:06] <nickrud> brandon_, looks good then. sudo aptitude update, then try installing gstreamer0.8-mad
[04:06] <HighHopes> yes but there are only RPM .. not DEB files
[04:06] <nazty1> nickrud: i just totally messed it up ;)
[04:06] <nickrud> rishi, I never even signed the coc, that's a first step I think
[04:06] <Sir_Fawnpug> Greetings everybody, I have a question about the Acer Aspire 3004WLCi's wireless (Broadcom 3418)
[04:06] <rishi> HighHopes: well you should be able to turn that into a .deb
[04:06] <illusions> bimberi add me oldyoda69
[04:06] <brandon_> wee all kinda of things are happening
[04:07] <rishi> nickcrud: i don't even know what coc is?
[04:07] <nickrud> nazty1, how?
[04:07] <AngryElf> hey all, what's a quick way to find out the total size of all the files in a directory?
[04:07] <rubso> Hi :)
[04:07] <giruz> Hi everybody, I'm using an ubuntu live and I'm trying to connect to my wifi network but it doesn't work. I'm following what the wiki says here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WirelessNetworking
[04:07] <nickrud> rishi, Code of Conduct
[04:07] <PwcrLinuxLive> AngryElf: df in terminal box
[04:07] <arrick> What are some good accouting programs for ubuntu?
[04:07] <giruz> do I have to do something after?
[04:08] <rishi> nickrud: apparently i haven't either then, haha.
[04:08] <bimberi> illusions: haha, ok, i don't have skype here though
[04:08] <nickrud> arrick, most of the good ones cost money, but gnucash & grisbi are ok
[04:08] <brandon_> Nickrud, I LOVE YOU
[04:08] <rubso> Hi guys, i like using KDE, and i want to download Kubunut, i'm wondering if Kubuntu supports all GNOME/GTKs Applications? thanks.
[04:08] <Sir_Fawnpug> Basically I'm having compiler issues with acer_acpi, which regurgitates FATAL: Error inserting acer_acpi (/lib/modules/2.6.12-9-386/extra/acer_acpi.ko): No such device
[04:08] <Sir_Fawnpug> "
[04:08] <arrick> thnks
[04:08] <Sir_Fawnpug> Err, sorry about the extra \n
[04:08] <nickrud> brandon_, I take it that means success :)
[04:09] <Sir_Fawnpug> And whoops, it ain't a compiler issue either, haha
[04:09] <brandon_> =)
[04:09] <paolob> Hi guys! I want to execute a gnome program on a computer of my lan, but as another user. I'm the principal user (the one that can use sudo) on both my computer and the other, but I don't know the password of the user I want to run the program. I tried something like "ssh -Yf otherpc gksudo gksuexec nautilus", but I can't have it work. Any idea?
[04:09] <AngryElf> PwcrLinuxLive, that gives the whole file system, what about a specific directory?
[04:09] <rishi> nickrud: what's the difference between aptitude and apt-get, any idea?
[04:09] <Sir_Fawnpug> paolob, sudo can be useful for that.
[04:09] <paolob> clearly both pc are ubuntu
[04:09] <rishi> rubso: what?
[04:09] <wastrel> AngryElf:  du -sh /some/directory
[04:09] <Sir_Fawnpug> err, whoops, I responded too quickly.
[04:09] <paolob> Sir_Fawnpug, how?
[04:10] <PwcrLinuxLive> Anger: try df -? for help information
[04:10] <rubso> rishi, kubuntu supports all GNOME/GTKs apps ?
[04:10] <illusions> bimberi it works i am on voise with a friend now thanks you so much
[04:10] <rishi> rubso: kubuntu is kde
[04:10] <edcorcoran> I'm having trouble getting Ubuntu Breezy Badger to recognize my soundcard, which is a Soundblaster Live.
[04:10] <AngryElf> wastrel, thanx
[04:10] <bimberi> illusions: enjoy! :)
[04:10] <_jason> rishi: aptitude keeps track of the dependencies that get installed with packages and it also has an interface if you just run 'aptitude'.  There is probably a lot more but that is all I know :)
[04:10] <nickrud> rishi, aptitude tracks the packages that were installed as dependencies of things that you explicitly installed; if a dependency is no longer needed (you removed the program you installed) aptitude will also uninstall the dependencies.
[04:10] <rubso> rishi i'm waiting -_-
[04:10] <nickrud> rishi, it also has really nice sorting & searching functions built in
[04:10] <rishi> nickrud: but doesn't apt-get do that?
[04:11] <nickrud> rishi, not the removal of unused dependencies, no
[04:11] <rishi> hmm...really?
[04:11] <Sir_Fawnpug> Well I can't reember if sudo requires you're in wheel or not, this is my first serious ubuntu installation and things are probably different.
[04:11] <illusions> bimberi only one bug i cant see any of my friends online but oh well lol
[04:11] <rishi> interestign
[04:11] <Kritical> Something is using 100% of my processor and I cant see it in the tasks list... any help? =(
[04:11] <_jason> rishi: nope, if you install something like kubuntu-desktop and then remove it, it won't remove all of the dependencies that got installed if you use apt-get
[04:11] <rubso> who's using Kubuntu here?
[04:11] <nickrud> rishi, and I absolutely love the interactive ncurses interface :)
[04:11] <_jason> rubso: #kubuntu has a lot of kubuntu users :)
[04:11] <giruz> Hi everybody, I'm using an ubuntu live and I'm trying to connect to my wifi network but it doesn't work. I'm following what the wiki says here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WirelessNetworking . I see interface ath0 active but I'm unable to use internet...
[04:11] <rubso> ok
[04:11] <Sir_Fawnpug> If I'm not making any sense it's because I've been drinking.
[04:11] <bimberi> illusions: yes i don't know if the linux skype is a full blown version (i haven't used the windows one)
[04:11] <ralpho> k when g is so fast
[04:11] <rishi> Sir_Fawnpug: i hear you
[04:12] <Sir_Fawnpug> giruz, what chipset? You and I may be trying to get the same thing working.
[04:12] <nickrud> rishi, but if you did install kubuntu-desktop with aptitude, then removed it, all of the stuff that was pulled in would be uninstalled.
[04:12] <rishi> nickrud: obviously you are a lil more apt at this than i am, i don't know what ncurses is either :(
[04:12] <giruz> Sir_fawnpug: is intel centrino (bg2200)
[04:12] <edcorcoran> Anybody have any advice on getting Ubuntu to recognize a soundcard?
[04:12] <Sir_Fawnpug> giruz, ahh
[04:12] <rishi> nickrud: oh for real?  that's awesome...i shall use that instead of apt-get now
[04:13] <giruz> Sir_Fawnpug: did I miss something:
[04:13] <giruz> Sir_Fawnpug: did I miss something?
[04:13] <nickrud> rishi, a text based screen writing & keyboard/mouse input library
[04:13] <nickrud> rishi, that was a lousy pun ;(
[04:13] <brandon_> Nickrud, yes yes yes nickrud thanks so much all is working well im off to set the system up =)
[04:13] <rishi> nickrud: what do you need that for?
[04:13] <rishi> haha
[04:13] <nickrud> brandon_, you should be set for everything in the repos now, enjoy
[04:14] <TSCHAK> is there a metapackage for installing build stuff?
[04:14] <bimberi> TSCHAK: build-essential
[04:14] <illusions> bimberi ok well this still works for sound and thats really what i need it for so its all good
[04:14] <illusions> bimberi ok thanks again
[04:14] <bimberi> illusions: yw :)
[04:14] <rishi> can anyone tell me if Dapper has the good ATI drivers by default? or do i have to install them?
[04:14] <nickrud> rishi, type aptitude on a command line, you're looking at ncurses
[04:15] <rishi> ok, hold up
[04:15] <Sir_Fawnpug> giruz, not at all. I got a phone call. Isn't bg2200 the chipset intel wrote drivers for?

[04:18] <pianoboy3333> _jason: can you tell me what they are? I think I have them though...
[04:18] <Sir_Fawnpug> giruz, if I'm not mistaken, wlan0 should be your wireless adapter.
[04:18] <TimmyJ> quick question, does anyone know if dapper drake will have out of box beagle integration?

[04:19] <rishi> teldo: just type out the problem, someone probably can
[04:19] <arrick> I'll still be watching, ut later Installer36
[04:19] <Installer36> lol
[04:19] <Sir_Fawnpug> teldo, what kind of problems? I haven't used this distro much but I might be able to hel pyou.
[04:19] <giruz> Sir_Fawnpug: no...I'm right..I got the same screen as here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WirelessNetworking
[04:19] <scramblesend> help please.
[04:19] <Sir_Fawnpug> giruz, well I haven't messed around with wireless too much so I'm not sure what the trend it.

[04:20] <Installer36> ! Tell Installer36 about apptitude
[04:20] <ubotu> Installer36: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

[04:20] <AngryElf> scramblesend, apt-get upgrade
[04:20] <ablyss> nto-ubu, what type of connection do u use? wired or wireless?
[04:20] <therealphoenix> Hi. My monitor can't handle the default resolution that Ubuntu uses when it first starts. How do I change it?
[04:21] <scramblesend> thanx AngryElf.
[04:21] <rishi> !aptitude
[04:21] <Sir_Fawnpug> teldo, the root password is hashed, so you can't reverse it. But, you can set it with the administration tools.

[04:21] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[04:21] <Sir_Fawnpug> teldo, actually that's the only thing I don't like about this distro so far, is the gratuitous use of sudo.
[04:21] <aleNava> ok
[04:21] <_jason> teldo: ubuntu's root password is locked.  It is preferred that you use sudo.  Check your private messages from ubotu for more info
[04:21] <_jason> ubotu: tell teldo about root
[04:21] <IamEthos> I have all of the SynapticsTouchpad lines commented out
[04:21] <pianoboy3333> _jason: libgnome-dev is the newest vers
[04:21] <IamEthos> and yet it still works
[04:21] <AngryElf> Sir_Fawnpug, sudo -i ?
[04:21] <ablyss> the root pass isn't lock
[04:21] <IamEthos> can someone help me stop this damn thing
[04:21] <rishi> !tell teldo about root
[04:22] <_jason> pianoboy3333: check the README or INSTALL files for all the depends
[04:22] <_jason> ablyss: ?
[04:22] <pianoboy3333> ok
[04:22] <Installer36> ! Tell Installer36 about aptitude
[04:22] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Installer36
[04:22] <teldo> thanks so much
[04:22] <_jason> ubotu: tell Installer36 about apt
[04:22] <Installer36> Thanks
[04:22] <Sir_Fawnpug> AngryElf, eh, it's just a personal preference of mine.
[04:23] <ablyss> _jason, the root pass can be set, just have to log in as super user terminal and change it
[04:23] <_jason> ablyss: yes, but it's locked by default :)
[04:23] <ablyss> yes
[04:23] <therealphoenix> Does anyone know how to change the default screen resolution?
[04:24] <AngryElf> therealphoenix, system -> prefs -> screen res
[04:24] <Sir_Fawnpug> therealphoenix, you can change it in xorg.conf
[04:24] <jbroome> !resolution
[04:24] <ubotu> well, resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:24] <Sir_Fawnpug> Or I guess that, haha.

[04:26] <nickrud> ablyss, you can set users allowed to use webmin in it's config I believe, that way you can get away from root there also :)
[04:28] <Eleaf> hello?
[04:28] <britto> hello
[04:28] <Mastastealth> hi
[04:28] <britto> i am a newview to ubuntu
[04:28] <britto> i would like to upgrade my kernel to the latest version how would i do that?
[04:29] <Eleaf> ipfw, ??
[04:29] <britto> can somebody help me?
[04:29] <Eleaf> who was just helping me? lol
[04:29] <SkippyX> K - got a weird configuration issue. I installed ubuntu. used automatix to nab the fonts. got repositories from the unofficial ubuntu starter guide (for breezy) from (I think ) linuxquestions.org. D/Led KDE 3.5. I like KDE and like gtk-based apps.  I can tell you how to do the former, I'm new to ubuntu too.
[04:29] <mrios> I have this wireless card and the source for the driver. I can't find the driver pre-compiled. Can anyone help me with some compile issues?
[04:29] <SkippyX> Tried to fix it through KDE's controls....no go.
[04:29] <wastrel> !automatix
[04:29] <ubotu> methinks automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[04:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> Hmm, I wonder...
[04:30] <Installer36> jason_ what I was wondering was the diference between apt-get and aptitude?....If any..
[04:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> !acer_acpi
[04:30] <ubotu> Sir_Fawnpug: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:30] <britto> i would like to compile a new kernel
[04:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> Haha, oh well, was worth a shot.
[04:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> Ok britto, the first step is to download the kernel sources.
[04:30] <_jason> Installer36: aptitude keeps track of dependencies that get install with packages, apt-get doesn't.
[04:30] <Mastastealth> Intaller: aptitude is an apt-get client, like Synaptic, but for commandline
[04:30] <nto-ubu> ablyss, wired
[04:30] <_jason> Installer36: that's the biggest difference
[04:31] <ablyss> nto-ubu what?
[04:31] <Installer36> Thank You
[04:31] <sHaDe> n8 all
[04:31] <britto> ok what else?
[04:31] <nto-ubu> ablyss, u asked what connection i used
[04:31] <Sir_Fawnpug> I assume you're using 2.6.* because that's what seems to be installd on the version I got.
[04:32] <Sir_Fawnpug> Britto, you can find your current kernel configuration in /proc/config.gz, I would recommend backing that up before you do anything.
[04:32] <britto> yes i have 2.6.* as well ... but i think there is an easier way to do this
[04:32] <britto> i believe there is an apt-get ... but i am searching for that one ...
[04:32] <Sir_Fawnpug> Britto, well I'm not sure but there may be like a stock kernel for i386 that they give you, I didn't pay much attention during the install process.
[04:32] <ablyss> nto-ubu oh okay, get yourself a windows 98 machine and do network sharing.. that will surely slow u down :P
[04:33] <Sir_Fawnpug> britto, there are kernel sources in the ubuntu tree you can download
[04:33] <bimberi> !tell Sir_Fawnpug about wireless
[04:33] <wastrel> when you apt-get upgrade  the newest kernel should be installed, unless i'm mistaken
[04:33] <nto-ubu> ablyss, :P
[04:33] <Sir_Fawnpug> himberi, thank you.
[04:33] <britto> ok ... going through the forums it seems that i686 is more stable
[04:33] <bimberi> britto: linux-source-2.6.12
[04:33] <britto> thats the reason I would like to upgrade it
[04:33] <Skippy_X> what a time for my dial-up to quit......
[04:33] <bimberi> Sir_Fawnpug: np :)
[04:34] <Skippy_X> anybody post a suggestion while I was reconnecting?
[04:34] <bimberi> britto: you can install linux-686 to get a 696 kernel
[04:34] <bimberi> *686
[04:34] <therealphoenix> how do you change the screen res used at the login screen?
[04:34] <niki> what command would i use to print the contents of a directory into a text file?
[04:34] <wastrel> britto:  uname -r
[04:34] <rishi> britto: sudo apt-get install linux-686
[04:34] <pianoboy3333> niki: ummm
[04:34] <ablyss> niki ls > textfile.txt
[04:34] <_jason> niki: ls > /path/to/textfile
[04:34] <niki> thanks _jason, ablyss
[04:35] <pianoboy3333> niki: or folder/folder/* > file.txt
[04:35] <_jason> pianoboy3333: that wouldn't work :)
[04:35] <pianoboy3333> _jason: why not?
[04:35] <britto> I have 2.6.12-10-386
[04:35] <_jason> pianoboy3333: try it
[04:35] <britto> wastrel
[04:36] <niki> pianoboy3333, he's right
[04:36] <niki> pianoboy3333, i just tried, it didn't work...but thx anyway :)
[04:36] <britto> rishi i tried apt-get install linux-686
[04:36] <ablyss> ls "/home/$whoami/docs/*" > textfile
[04:36] <_jason> pianoboy3333: you need to do something like echo /path/to/* > ok
[04:36] <Sir_Fawnpug> bimberi, well actually ndiswrapper works with the driver, I just have one of those wireless buttons that I apparently need kernel hooks for.
[04:36] <pianoboy3333> ok
[04:36] <britto> but i get the message unable to lock the list
[04:36] <pianoboy3333> _jason: ur right....
[04:36] <pianoboy3333> oz welz
[04:36] <niki> :D:D
[04:36] <rishi> britto: did you capitalize the L
[04:37] <therealphoenix> How do you change the screen res used at the login screen?
[04:37] <pianoboy3333> _jason: do you know what to do about http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11079 ?
[04:37] <britto> yes i did rishi
[04:37] <Sir_Fawnpug> bimberi, and additionally, the module that accepts those scancodes doesn't want to load with lsmod.
[04:37] <Sir_Fawnpug> err
[04:37] <Sir_Fawnpug> modprobe, my bad.
[04:37] <rishi> hmm..that's weird
[04:37] <Sir_Fawnpug> I guess it would be kind of hard to load a module with lsmod.
[04:37] <_jason> pianoboy3333: you showed me that before
[04:37] <britto> i am logged in as root thouugh
[04:37] <rishi> wait
[04:37] <britto> hold i know the reason
[04:37] <rishi> then did you put sudo before it all
[04:37] <rishi> ?
[04:38] <pianoboy3333> _jason: I know, do you know how I can fix it though, to make it work?
[04:38] <britto> i am running an instance of Automatix..
[04:38] <rishi> britto: did you use sudo
[04:38] <britto> i don't use sudo. ...
[04:38] <_jason> pianoboy3333: make sure you have all the deps
[04:38] <bimberi> Sir_Fawnpug: ah, can't help there sorry, sometimes that wiki page has hints for particular cards ( :) at your subsequent posts)
[04:38] <britto> i logg in as root
[04:38] <rishi> in ubuntu?
[04:38] <rishi> i thought you couldn't
[04:38] <britto> i am old school and dont like the sudo
[04:38] <pianoboy3333> _jason: /me does, it's some screwy thing with gnomemm
[04:38] <rishi> britto: you're lucky haha.
[04:38] <niki> britto, i think with ubuntu you pretty much _have_ to use sudo :P
[04:38] <britto> rishi the reason is that I am running an instance of Automatix
[04:39] <Sir_Fawnpug> bimberi, no problem. I have one of those acer laptops that apparently the french love.
[04:39] <rishi> oh okay
[04:39] <britto> well you can get away with sudo ... do sudo passwd root
[04:39] <therealphoenix> Does anyone know how to change the screen resolution used when you start your computer?
[04:39] <_jason> pianoboy3333: google the error, you will probably get some hits
[04:39] <pianoboy3333> ok
[04:39] <britto> and change the passwd to your new pwd ... and guess what from that point onwards
[04:39] <britto> u get access to root
[04:39] <Sir_Fawnpug> therealphoenix, check /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:39] <bimberi> Sir_Fawnpug: well no wonder :P
[04:39] <rishi> niiice
[04:39] <ablyss> wonder why ls /home/$whoami/docs > file didn't work :'-(
[04:39] <rishi> therealphoenix: try the wiki, i don't know how to
[04:40] <Sir_Fawnpug> ablyss, has to be surrounded in backticks I think.
[04:40] <_jason> ablyss: ls /home/$(whoami)/docs > file might
[04:40] <bimberi> ablyss: $(whoami)
[04:40] <Sir_Fawnpug> or $(whoami)
[04:40] <ablyss> oh
[04:40] <bimberi> consensus is achieved on that one :)
[04:40] <niki> ok, how do i rename file.txt to file2.txt?
[04:41] <Sir_Fawnpug> niki, mv
[04:41] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, that's right...thx :P
[04:41] <Sir_Fawnpug> mv file.name file.new.name
[04:41] <TheDracle> Hm, I'm trying to netcat on a port on my machine, using "netcat -l 5000".
[04:41] <britto> niki u can use link 2
[04:41] <TheDracle> I then try to telnet to that port: telnet <IP_ADDRESS> 5000
[04:41] <ablyss> the program PrefixSuffix works nice to renaming multip files too
[04:41] <niki> britto, link?
[04:41] <TheDracle> And it blocks me.
[04:41] <TheDracle> telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[04:42] <britto> yes link will create a second name to the first file
[04:42] <TheDracle> Is there some kind of firewall running by default on Ubuntu?
[04:42] <niki> britto, ah ok...but...it also leaves the old file
[04:42] <britto> it is kinda cool ... the inode is changed
[04:42] <Sir_Fawnpug> Is anybody familiar with acer_acpi? I'm having problems getting the module to load on my Acer 3004WLCi
[04:42] <Sir_Fawnpug> niki, did you type mv or cp?
[04:42] <britto> us mv as sirfwnpug says
[04:42] <jbroome> TheDracle: no FW 'cuase there's nothing listening by default
[04:42] <britto> it is easier
[04:43] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, i used mv, it worked :) ... i was talking about when i used link
[04:43] <Sir_Fawnpug> Ahh
[04:43] <pete_> heya... I need some help BADLY. I just switched from Windows XP to Ubuntu 5.10 today, but I have no idea what I'm doing. Can someone help answer some questions for me?
[04:43] <Sir_Fawnpug> Yeah, link basically stores a reference to the file.
[04:43] <TheDracle> jbroome: netcat -l 5000
[04:43] <TheDracle> jbroome: I have that running in the background, shouldn't that be listening?
[04:43] <Sir_Fawnpug> niki, I have a copy of the UNIX Programmer's Manual, Volume I for System III
[04:43] <therealphoenix> Sir_Fawnpug: I looked in the file, should i just delete the references to the bad screen res?
[04:44] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, i got a copy of Linux In A Nutshell, it's a pretty good desk reference
[04:44] <Sir_Fawnpug> therealphoenix, if they're bad, yeah
[04:44] <pete_> how do I install firefox 1.5?
[04:44] <therealphoenix> thank you
[04:44] <jbroome> TheDracle: yeah.  but if you didn't start one, there shouldn't be a FW.
[04:44] <Sir_Fawnpug> pete_, it should come already installed.
[04:44] <ablyss> i got learn unix in 24 hours... and that was 6 years ago and im still learning
[04:44] <Dr_House> anyone notice very slow burning speeds (around 3.0x) when burning a .img dvd in K3D?
[04:44] <niki> lol ablyss
[04:44] <Sir_Fawnpug> niki, yeah, some things are easy to forget.
[04:44] <frank23> !tell pete_ about ff1.5
[04:44] <TheDracle> jbroome: Oh... I didn't... Which is why this is so strangely confusing...
[04:44] <pete_> no, 1.0.7 came installed i mine
[04:44] <niki> same here, pete
[04:44] <Sir_Fawnpug> It kind of helps that I'm a programmer working in a unix environment most of the time.
[04:45] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, lucky...i'm a fence installer :P
[04:45] <ablyss> i wire houses
[04:45] <pete_> I'm so used to downloading simple .EXE files, that when I read about a terminal/console line, my jaw dropped
[04:45] <Sir_Fawnpug> niki, one way to make sure you'll never forget the commands is to install gentoo.
[04:45] <Sir_Fawnpug> In fact, gentoo was my first choice for this laptop, but I don't have distcc installed on either my athlon64 or my sparc.
[04:45] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, i dunno...i think i might like ubuntu too much :P
[04:46] <Sir_Fawnpug> It would take way too long to get a decent system.
[04:46] <Sir_Fawnpug> niki, well debian's not a bad foundation for it.
[04:46] <frank23> pete_: well software that you can install with synaptic is very easy. much easier than running around the web looking for programs
[04:46] <rishi> Sir_Fawnpug: i wanted to install gentoo, but i never could...i don't think i'm smart enough for it yet...:)
[04:46] <Sir_Fawnpug> Niki, I'm hoping one of these days somebody will come out with a "genbuntoo."
[04:46] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, i've never used pure debian....but i've been through a lot of other installs that i just couldn't get working like this one
[04:46] <ablyss> im a OS hobbyist too been on a lot of systems, make you all feel special im using ubuntu :)
[04:47] <bimberi> Sir_Fawnpug: get to it :P
[04:47] <therealphoenix> How do I edit a write protected file?
[04:47] <Milk_> Hello!   Is it possible to control which monitor that software starts on when running a dual head setup?  Or is that specific to the software?
[04:47] <rishi> therealphoenix: use sudo
[04:47] <frank23> pete_: but ubuntu sticks with a version (like firefox 1.0.7) for 6 months. If you still want to update it;s a bit harder
[04:47] <Sir_Fawnpug> Rishi, gentoo isn't too hard, there's tons of documentation out there.
[04:47] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, and for the record, the worst support came from slackware...i was banned within 5 minutes for asking for help installing my wireless network card on my laptop :(
[04:47] <IdleOne> therealphoenix, sudo gedit file.name
[04:47] <rishi> Sir_Fawnpug: i know..and i followed the tutorial...and it still didn't work!
[04:47] <Sir_Fawnpug> niki, I found the debian guys are arses too (is this a family channel?)
[04:47] <wastrel> !ff1.5
[04:47] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[04:47] <pete_> ehh  I'd rather have something I'm used to... I suppose a technological insecurity of mine?  =P
[04:47] <Sir_Fawnpug> rishi, what stage installation were you trying to install?
[04:48] <rishi> i dunno
[04:48] <Sir_Fawnpug> bimberi, haha, actaully believe it or not I am writing something pretty complex, working on my own compiler just for my own purposes.
[04:48] <BarneyWithoutApE> How do I put more mHz into my Processor? its running a little slow
[04:48] <IdleOne> Sir_Fawnpug, yup it is a family channel :)
[04:48] <pete_> so how does synaptic work?
[04:48] <pete_> the concept is completely new to me
[04:48] <Milk_> pete_, how do you mean?
[04:48] <Milk_> its a GUI for apt
[04:48] <frank23> !tell pete_ about synaptic
[04:48] <LathropWells> netcat is a "hacking" tool. - lol (glad to learn something of it just the same.)
[04:48] <Sir_Fawnpug> IdleOne, ahh, just making sure, I didn't want to get obscene because I tend to swear like a sailor otherwise.
[04:49] <BarneyWithoutApE> also, I put more PCI into my graphics, but the sata isnt running as fast
[04:49] <narg> so I set up wu-ftpd using webmin, and my user starts in the right place and can create files, but can't look. Any idea what I did wrong?
[04:49] <frank23> pete_: synaptic can install any program in the ubuntu repositories easily (about 15000 packages)
[04:49] <Sir_Fawnpug> rishi, nothing scares a new linux user more than a stage 3
[04:49] <Sir_Fawnpug> err, a stage 1
[04:49] <Sir_Fawnpug> Beer does strange things to you.
[04:50] <Sir_Fawnpug> The installation itself teaches you so much about general system administration.
[04:50] <Milk_> anyone here have experiance forcing an application to open on a specific display?
[04:51] <pete_> I know how to find it, but I've never used something like it before
[04:51] <pete_> so finding ff1.5, or anything for that matter, and installing it is waaay over my head
[04:51] <Sir_Fawnpug> Anyway niki, if you ever get the time and a spare machine, give it a try.
[04:51] <wastrel> Milk_:  -display <displayname>   ?
[04:51] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, definately :)
[04:51] <niki> @chuck
[04:52] <Milk_> wastrel, and display name matches wats in the xorg.conf?
[04:52] <Sir_Fawnpug> And seek the pre-gnu publications too, it helps you understand UNIX so much better than alot of today's tutorials.
[04:53] <Sir_Fawnpug> Anybody familiar with acer_acpi? I'm having trouble getting the module to load
[04:53] <Sir_Fawnpug> Built with 2.6.12 kernel headers
[04:53] <rishi> Sir_Fawnpug: nope, what does it do?
[04:53] <Sir_Fawnpug> And sources
[04:53] <Sir_Fawnpug> rishi, it enables the buttons on my laptop, one of them which enables my wireless.
[04:54] <rishi> oh sweet
[04:54] <Sir_Fawnpug> I'm not really concerned about the other buttons, haha.
[04:54] <kartik> how do i play mpeg video files?????please help???
[04:54] <rishi> haha
[04:54] <Sir_Fawnpug> kartik, mplayer can play MPEGs
[04:54] <wastrel> Milk_:  display is usually the x server hostname and the display number   servername:0  for example.
[04:54] <arrick> Hey guys does skype cost anything to run?
[04:54] <bimberi> !tell kartik about restricted
[04:54] <bimberi> arrick:  nope
[04:54] <HedgeMage> arrick: only if you want skype-out
[04:55] <HedgeMage> arrick: (ie to call regular telephones)
[04:55] <arrick> oh ok
[04:55] <wastrel> Milk_:  if it's localhost you can just do  :0
[04:55] <arrick> so I can call otehr pcs though?
[04:55] <arrick> like with yahoo messenger?
[04:56] <arrick> anyone know what skype-out costs per month?
[04:56] <Eleaf> uhh
[04:56] <Eleaf> arrick, look on their webpage
[04:56] <frank23> arrick: its per minute I think
[04:56] <arrick> ok
[04:57] <kartik> sir_fawnpug:can mplayer play video files???????
[04:57] <venox> hey... anyone here ever tried to watch nasatv on ubuntu?
[04:57] <venox> the url for watching it is: http://www.nasa.gov/55644main_NASATV_Windows.asx
[04:57] <venox> I tried using mplayer, but I can't get it working
[04:57] <rishi> kartik: you probably don't have the right codecs
[04:57] <venox> any ideas?
[04:58] <rishi> venox, maybe thats your problem too?
[04:58] <TheFaction20> is it possible to install things if using the ubuntu live cd?
[04:58] <venox> hmm, I don't think so
[04:58] <franklin> hola
[04:58] <pulgoki> is there a better gui firewall other than firestarter?
[04:58] <pulgoki> it gives me problems with my home network
[04:58] <pulgoki> :(
[04:58] <kartik> rishi:what are the codecs
[04:58] <nethgn> How do I use scp in a ssh session to copy files from one computer to the other?  I only seem to be able to copy files on the server to other locations on the server
[04:59] <dj-fu> use scp instead of ssh
[04:59] <dj-fu> usage: scp [-1246BCpqrv] ....
[04:59] <Sir_Fawnpug> rishi, the funny thing is that ubuntu seems to think my wireless button's light is a HDD led
[04:59] <Sir_Fawnpug> When ubuntu swaps or I use the harddrive otherwise, it starts lighting up and I think, woah, my wireless is working.
[05:00] <Sir_Fawnpug> So anybody here a fluxbox user?
[05:00] <Sir_Fawnpug> (No problems with it or anything, just curious, I like the fluxbox)
[05:00] <Sir_Fawnpug> Whoops, there went my hardwired connection.
[05:00] <GhostXz> HI, I WANT TO RUN A SERVER WITH UBUNUT, CAN YOU PLS TECH ME HOW
[05:00] <venox> hmm, maybe I need w32codecs
[05:00] <venox> huhh

[05:08] <Sir_Fawnpug> helder, xmame might be in the apt tree actually.
[05:09] <rishi> niki: hahaha...thanks anyway

[05:09] <Sir_Fawnpug> I almost called that portage, haha.

[05:11] <isilzha> _jason: it won't accept my pw either
[05:11] <niki> GhostXz, are you here just to annoy people?
[05:11] <_jason> isilzha: is this the first user you created during install?  and is this an expert install?
[05:11] <LadyNikon> heh
[05:11] <Nickgarvey> if windows edits my Ext2 partition, will it fragment it?
[05:11] <isilzha> _jason: expert
[05:11] <LadyNikon> niki: heh
[05:11] <Sir_Fawnpug> niki, I am more than certain he's just being flamebait.
[05:11] <_jason> ubotu: tell isilzha about expert
[05:12] <GhostXz> you people are no good
[05:12] <GhostXz> you no help
[05:12] <Nickgarvey> !patience
[05:12] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Please be aware there are a lot of questions, but only maybe few who might know the answer for you. Please be patient. Your attitude may determine their willingness to help you.
[05:12] <nickrud> helder, you would say alien --to-deb rpmfile
[05:12] <niki> Sir_Fawnpug, ah, ok...i'll just put him on ignore then
[05:12] <wasabi_> Where do the real-time utilities live?
[05:12] <isilzha> _jason: ohhhh. ok thanks
[05:12] <wasabi_> I want to give a process real time priority.
[05:13] <Sir_Fawnpug> wasabi, try nicing it less than 0
[05:13] <gabbah> if i create a guest share in samba, do i still need to create a "guest user" account that that share will use?
[05:13] <helder> thanks i'll try
[05:13] <nickrud>  linux is not a true real time os
[05:13] <Sir_Fawnpug> I don't think you can quite call that real time but it's very high prioirty.
[05:13] <wasabi_> Sir_Fawnpug: Yeah, I know about that.  Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Nickgarvey
[05:15] <GhostXz> gay,, you all gay
[05:15] <rishi> Nickgarvey it didn't work for me either
[05:16] <Sir_Fawnpug> Brb, going to smoke.
[05:16] <LadyNikon> thank the gods
[05:16] <nickrud> like I said, they get tired.
[05:16] <LadyNikon> that guy was entertaining while i was having my dinner
[05:16] <wasabi_> Sir_Fawnpug: package schedutils.
[05:16] <wasabi_> took me awhile to find it
[05:17] <xerophyte> does anybody know where can i find the wibmin 1.26 deb files
[05:19] <Sir_Fawnpug> wasabi_, ahh, good deal
[05:20] <intelikey> xerophyte is it not in the dapper repo ?
[05:20] <Sir_Fawnpug> Anybody familiar with acer_acpi? I'm having a problem getting the module to work
[05:20] <nazty> can anyone help me out with update-alternatives --install?
[05:21] <LadyNikon> who was it that was in here.. talking about watching proggys compile?
[05:21] <Agamotto> Sounds too much like watching golf on the telly
[05:22] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, I used to do that all the time, gentoo tends to put alot of noise on your monitor.
[05:22] <LadyNikon> Sir_Fawnpug: i used to goto sleep like that
[05:22] <LadyNikon> my husband thought i was a freak.
[05:22] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, haha, I would just screen portage and go to school usually.
[05:22] <Sir_Fawnpug> Come home and find something went wrong.
[05:23] <LadyNikon> Sir_Fawnpug: it was amuzing to watch the crap they toss in there
[05:23] <LadyNikon> and all the ;)
[05:23] <LadyNikon> its like watching one of those crazy screen savers
[05:23] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, cat the HME driver some time, there's some hilarious stuff in there.
[05:24] <LadyNikon> Sir_Fawnpug:  i got away from gentoo when i couldnt spent tons of time working on it
[05:24] <LadyNikon> heh
[05:24] <LadyNikon> job+work+school+workingout+wow = no time
[05:24] <dt0x> DCC SEND AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
[05:24] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, actually it was my first choice for the laptop I'm on, but I don't have distCC installed on any of my workstations.
[05:25] <_jason> !ops
[05:25] <ubotu> Help! lilo, fabbione, lamont, Keybuk, jdub, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob or Hobbsee
[05:25] <Sir_Fawnpug> It would've been a nightmare to even do a stage 3
[05:25] <bimberi> hmm, where is ubugtu?
[05:25] <_jason> bimberi: I think he messed up on his exploit
[05:25] <bimberi> Hobbsee: too slow :P
[05:25] <LadyNikon> is ubot going nuts?
[05:25] <GeorgeAScott> hello
[05:25] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, we have a 160 node cluster at the school I want to try using with it, though.
[05:26] <Sir_Fawnpug> err, whoops, 80 nodes, 160 procs.
[05:26] <Hobbsee> hehe
[05:26] <GeorgeAScott> does anybody know the name of the screen that comes up after the login?
[05:26] <tesseract> I have a DAC960 scsi card, and I did a default ubuntu install. On boot I get "ALERT! /dev/rd/c0d0p1 does not exist." how to fix?
[05:26] <Hobbsee> bimberi: indeed.  i dont have an awesome script.
[05:26] <Sir_Fawnpug> I don't think my boss would be too happy with that though, considering it's supposed to be for number crunching.
[05:26] <LadyNikon> Sir_Fawnpug: </drool>
[05:26] <nalioth> fabbione: i just got him
[05:26] <wastrel> GeorgeAScott:  gnome splash screen?
[05:26] <fabbione> * nalioth sets ban on<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:26] <bimberi> Hobbsee: :)
[05:26] <fabbione> nalioth: he did change ip 2 times :)
[05:27] <nalioth> fabbione: ah, how lovely
[05:27] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, you should see the air conditioner we got for it, it was like $25k and is likely to triple the power bill for CS
[05:27] <LadyNikon> ohh
[05:27] <LadyNikon> that was stupid
[05:27] <intelikey> hmmm is there not a package "alternatives" in ubuntu ?
[05:27] <Hobbsee> nalioth: why not kline instead?
[05:27] <GeorgeAScott> the splash screen comes up on it yeah... but i've changed my splash screen and can't find out how to change the background
[05:27] <fabbione> nalioth: that's why i didn't bad at speed light :)
[05:27] <GeorgeAScott> and the two just clash
[05:27] <nalioth> Hobbsee: if he's changing IPs a kline won't stop him, either
[05:27] <intelikey> how do you remove alternatives ?
[05:27] <Hobbsee> nalioth: ah darn!
[05:27] <Joetheodd> Hobbsee: Chanserv hates you! gg =p
[05:27] <nalioth> where is ubugtu?
[05:27] <Hobbsee> Joetheodd: i removed it :P
[05:28] <Hobbsee> nalioth: it's there...
[05:28] <Joetheodd> Hobbsee: Me want op please. =p
[05:28] <LadyNikon> wow.. all those people have the vuln
[05:28] <Sir_Fawnpug> I get to cut my teeth on that thing once we get the rack moved, they weren't able to put it in the room where we originally had it.
[05:28] <_jason> nalioth: he didn't end it in 0 0, that's my theory as to why Ubugtu didn't act
[05:28] <Hobbsee> Joetheodd: dream on :P
[05:28] <LadyNikon> heh i remember dumpstering a rack
[05:28] <nalioth> Ubugtu: is not opped, Hobbsee
[05:28] <LadyNikon> my now ex was like..
[05:28] <LadyNikon> what are you doing..
[05:28] <Hobbsee> nalioth: that script did work, on ubugtu
[05:28] <nalioth> Hobbsee: w/o being opped, Ubugtu is useless
[05:28] <LadyNikon> as i am trying to pull it out of the garbage
[05:28] <_jason> nalioth: that appears to be a better theory
[05:28] <Hobbsee> nalioth: op it then?
[05:29] <LadyNikon> my answer " welll if you would help me get this in the elevator.. i would be putting this in my apt"
[05:29] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, I would become your ex too.
[05:29] <Sir_Fawnpug> Haha
[05:29] <Hobbsee> there you go...
[05:29] <LadyNikon> yeh well he had issues that i was a geek
[05:29] <LadyNikon> how is that for a twist!
[05:29] <Hobbsee> obviously a whole lot of people are still stung by the exploit...
[05:30] <LadyNikon> Sir_Fawnpug: 19 inch rack.. that had all the power plugs working
[05:30] <pulgoki> is there anyone that may be able to help with a firewall issue?
[05:30] <LadyNikon> Hobbsee: yar.
[05:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, haha, I thought he was dumping you because of the rack.
[05:30] <Glacious> hello, i have a SATA controller card with XP + UBUNTU (Grub) installed.  Dual boot worked fine until I re-installed XP, then re-installed grub to get boot menu back.  now it says "Can't find NTLDR" when I goto XP
[05:30] <arrick> How do you add info to ubotu>
[05:30] <arrick> ?
[05:30] <LadyNikon> Sir_Fawnpug: nah he liked my rack.. it was my brain he didnt like ;)
[05:30] <Glacious> I know I had it all working before, but i can't remember how :(
[05:30] <_jason> ubotu: tell arrick about yourself
[05:30] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, let me ask you this; did you dump it so you could conviently go dumpster diving after work?
[05:30] <Jeshua> Hmm, seems like everyone is already busy.
[05:30] <Falstius> does ubuntu support wpa/wpa2?
[05:30] <_jason> arrick: add only useful stuff, adding silly things usually gets a ban for people
[05:30] <pussfeller> if i set a password for root, regular users should not be able to ls /root?
[05:31] <arrick> I found the answer to many questions about missing partitions a minute ago, that could help
[05:31] <LadyNikon> oh no.. i dumpstered it in my apt building
[05:31] <arrick> _jason, good evening
[05:31] <_jason> pussfeller: depends on permissions of /root
[05:31] <nalioth> pussfeller: you don't need to set a password for root
[05:31] <nalioth> pussfeller: a root password has nothing to do with /root
[05:31] <LadyNikon> i dont do the whole.. " oh .. its trash.." and then dumpster it later.. I like working
[05:31] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, haha, maybe it was the brain, although if you dumped a perfectly good rack, it may not be for the reason you think, haha.
[05:31] <pussfeller> i know, but root should not be readable my reg users
[05:31] <pussfeller> by
[05:31] <pussfeller> i dont remember changing the perms
[05:31] <nalioth> pussfeller: so use sudo to set the permissions
[05:31] <LadyNikon> dumpstered = taking it out of the trash
[05:32] <isilzha> _jason: doesn't seem to work
[05:32] <Sir_Fawnpug> Oh, I thought you meant the other way around.
[05:32] <nalioth> pussfeller: but be careful you know what permissions to set
[05:32] <LadyNikon> heh nope
[05:32] <intelikey> pussfeller users should not be able to ls /root whether or not you set a root passwd.
[05:32] <pussfeller> nalioth: i dont use sudo
[05:32] <Hobbsee> Sionide Trae, VRWarper , t1n_l0tus redir existance winXperts:  You should all connect on port #8001, not #6667, so that you will not be affected if some idiot does run the exploit.
[05:32] <Jeshua> If someone gets a free minute, I need instructions.. I don't know if it would mainly be ubuntu related or not.
[05:32] <nalioth> pussfeller: ah.
[05:32] <Sir_Fawnpug> Then allow me to retract my statement because of your rack.
[05:32] <_jason> isilzha: you may need to logout and back in
[05:32] <pussfeller> hmm
[05:32] <isilzha> _jason: i did that
[05:32] <Trae> heh
[05:32] <Sionide> whut
[05:32] <_jason> isilzha: paste the output of 'groups' command
[05:32] <Sionide> what exploit? :S
[05:32] <Hobbsee> Sionide: the one that booted your client before...
[05:32] <nickrud> Jeshua, ask away
[05:32] <Glacious> nobody knows why a SATA card /w XP and Ubuntu would give me "can't find NTLDR" when i try to goto XP?  it worked until I reinstalled XP + Grub.
[05:33] <intelikey> pussfeller i recomend chmod 000000 /root -R
[05:33] <arrick> ubotu https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GnomeComputerMenu is where you can find information on how to get missing partitions found.
[05:33] <ubotu> arrick: that's too long
[05:33] <Glacious> my ATA on board controller just has a drive for storage, no OS's
[05:33] <Jeshua> Well, I want to replace Metacity window manager, ubuntu related, with fluxbox, not ubuntu related.
[05:33] <isilzha> _jason:  isilzha adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin
[05:33] <arrick> ubotu https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GnomeComputerMenu is on how to get missing partitions found.
[05:33] <ubotu> that's too long, arrick
[05:33] <nickrud> Jeshua, you mean run fluxbox instead of metacity with gnome?
[05:33] <_jason> isilzha: su to root and pastebin /etc/sudoers please
[05:33] <nalioth> arrick: leave the bot alone, please
[05:33] <Jeshua> Nickrud: Correct.
[05:34] <arrick> _jason, how long can they be
[05:34] <nalioth> jason_: su?
[05:34] <_jason> nalioth: expert install with non-working sudo
[05:34] <nickrud> Jeshua, that used to be easy ;(
[05:34] <Sir_Fawnpug> LadyNikon, I don't think I've been dumpster diving in a while, but there's something wrong when I'm excited because I can get a sun5 for $75
[05:34] <Jeshua> I already have Fluxbox installed, I just need to switch them out.
[05:34] <LadyNikon> Sir_Fawnpug:  heh
[05:34] <LadyNikon> well..
[05:34] <LadyNikon> my first date with my now hubby was dumpster diving
[05:34] <LadyNikon> and then vadding
[05:34] <Sir_Fawnpug> And I thought that was a better buy than my athlon64
[05:34] <Sir_Fawnpug> Haha, a match made in heaven
[05:35] <Jeshua> Nickrud: So you got any idea on how I might do it? Got a FAQ lying around or some ideas?

[05:36] <LadyNikon> which later got tossed because we moved
[05:36] <LadyNikon> people do not shred
[05:36] <Sir_Fawnpug> I think the last thing I got out of a dumpster diving raid was the Parish's Apple IIe inventory.

[05:36] <TSCHAK> ummmm, where are the ld library paths kept?
[05:36] <Jeshua> Nickrud, heh. XP Well, think as long as you like. I'm sure someone-of-us can figure it out.
[05:36] <Sir_Fawnpug> Very well.
[05:36] <TSCHAK> they're not in /etc/ld.so.conf
[05:36] <LadyNikon> nalioth: i will just shut up.
[05:36] <nickrud> as well as dumpster diving trophies :)
[05:36] <LadyNikon> and read the troller stuff instead
[05:36] <mattcraigschultz> ok, i installed kismet and got a new wireless card (orinoco gold pcmcia 802.11b unknown firmware version) and i can't get it into monitor mode, and i cant compile new orinoco drivers, any ideas?
[05:37] <Sir_Fawnpug> Anybody happen to be familiar with acer_acpi?
[05:37] <Glacious> so nobody has used an SATA card to install Ubuntu?
[05:37] <Jeshua> I tried adding Fluxbox into the startup program under order of 10, Metacity under 20, to see if it would run first and work, then disable metacity.
[05:37] <Sir_Fawnpug> I am trying to install the module on my Asus 3004WLCi, but for some reason the kernel doesn't think I have the hardware.
[05:38] <isilzha> _jason: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11080
[05:38] <Sir_Fawnpug> Err, Acer, not asus.
[05:38] <wastrel> hi
[05:38] <Glacious> SATA add-on card with XP + Ubuntu dual boot, worked until I reinstalled XP, now XP on Grub just gives me "Can't find NTLDR".  On-board IDE just has a storage drive.
[05:38] <Glacious> any ideas?
[05:38] <LadyNikon> anyone having issues with breezy badger being laggy?
[05:38] <Glacious> I can't figure out for the life of me how I got it working last time with dual boot on the SATA card
[05:39] <rishi> LadyNikon: yeah
[05:39] <intelikey> Jeshua uname -r
[05:40] <gabbah> is someone here decent with samba config?
[05:40] <_jason> isilzha: 'visduo' as root and make your /etc/sudoers look like http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7021, the only diff I see is the Default line other than the comments
[05:40] <arrick> !samba
[05:40] <ubotu> it has been said that samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[05:40] <wastrel> LadyNikon:  firefox on breezy is slow, upgrade to ff1.5 if you haven't yet
[05:40] <rishi> LadyNikon: any ideas on how to fix that?
[05:40] <Jeshua> intelikey, I guess thats the version. I was asking more for if I'm Breezy or what c.c I had a brain-fail after a while and forgot.
[05:40] <LadyNikon> wastrel: is it part of the updater.. or is that something i have to do myself
[05:40] <Sir_Fawnpug> Anybody familiar with acer_acpi? I'm having trouble loading the module on my Acer Aspire 3004WLCi
[05:41] <LadyNikon> i was thinking of turning off framebuffer for one.
[05:41] <intelikey> Jeshua 5.10 is breezy
[05:41] <rishi> Jeshua: if you have 5.10 its breezy
[05:41] <wastrel> !ff1.5
[05:41] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[05:41] <wastrel> LadyNikon:  ^^
[05:41] <rishi> Jeshua: if you have 6.06 it is dapper
[05:41] <intelikey> Jeshua 5.4 hoary
[05:41] <LadyNikon> wastrel: does that fix all of the laggy issues?
[05:41] <Jeshua> "2.6.12-9-386" O_o
[05:41] <DBO> thats your kernel
[05:41] <gabbah> arrick, that setting up samba doesn't load for me..
[05:41] <Jeshua> Figures.
[05:41] <wastrel> LadyNikon:  it makes firefox faster ... won't fix any other probs ;]
[05:42] <intelikey> Jeshua errr -a
[05:42] <LadyNikon> doh
[05:42] <isilzha> _jason: yes it does actually. i omitted he comments and forgot about the defaults line with that
[05:42] <_jason> isilzha: yes it does what?
[05:42] <LadyNikon> wastrel: do you know if anyone has reported that turning off frame buffer support in the kernel makes a difference?
[05:42] <isilzha> _jason: look this way
[05:42] <gabbah> arrick, never mind
[05:42] <Jeshua> I got something very similar to the last, with no difference in numbers.
[05:42] <_jason> isilzha: and what does 'sudo echo hi' say?
[05:43] <intelikey> Jeshua hehhe well you could  cat /etc/*release
[05:43] <wastrel> LadyNikon:  i have no idea - never really tried tweaking for performance
[05:43] <isilzha> _jason: same as before... it diesn't accept my pw
[05:43] <Jeshua> Well that works! :D
[05:43] <_jason> isilzha: you are using the user password?
[05:43] <Jeshua> Breezy it is.
[05:44] <LadyNikon> wastrel: k
[05:45] <isilzha> _jason: oh... sorry expected that i needed the root pw. thanks
[05:45] <_jason> isilzha: np
[05:45] <LadyNikon> ok I raelly hate gnome terminal
[05:45] <intelikey> heh yeah but it doesn't work here i have no /etc/*release .....
[05:45] <wastrel> lsb_release -a
[05:46] <arrick> ubotu: tell arrick about yourself
[05:46] <intelikey> -bash: lsb_release: command not found
[05:46] <intelikey> :)
[05:46] <wastrel> someone's distro is non compliant
[05:46] <intelikey> hmmm it's ubuntu 5.4
[05:46] <axisys> how do i covert 5 searate one page .ps file to One 5 page .ps file?
[05:47] <wickers> Holy crap... when does ubuntu 6.04 come out?
[05:47] <_jason> !dapper
[05:47] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[05:47] <nalioth> intelikey: you won't have it. type  "cat /etc/issue"
[05:47] <Sir_Fawnpug> Oh, wow, I'm still registered.
[05:47] <wastrel> wickers:  heh it doesn't  - postponed a month & change. :]
[05:47] <wickers> I installed Fedora Core 5 to see how it runs... and I want my ubuntu back so badly.
[05:47] <hippie23> I cant log into any of my window managers, only iceWM and failsafe termanal, gnome, KDE, and XFCE all dont work
[05:47] <intelikey> nalioth issue is blank
[05:47] <hippie23> it just goes back to the login screen
[05:47] <hippie23> what happened?
[05:47] <nalioth> intelikey: i'm lost
[05:48] <axisys> never mind.. got it
[05:48] <axisys> cat 1.ps 2.ps 3.ps 4.ps > output.ps
[05:48] <wickers> I've doen so much to this FC5 install to speed things up... but it still is crap.
[05:48] <nickrud> odd that issue would be missing
[05:48] <intelikey> that's ok.  i'm not looking for the information. just pointing out that it wasn't avalable here.
[05:48] <wastrel> well some of us update our systems
[05:48] <wastrel> ;]
[05:49] <LadyNikon> ew fedora
[05:49] <TheFaction20> am i able to install things if im just running the live cd
[05:49] <intelikey> nickrud issue isn't missing  just has nothing in it.
[05:49] <WebLOCH> hey guys, does anyone know if its possible to get Epiphany 2 for breezy ?
[05:49] <KurtKraut> How do I hibernate my computer ? I'm using Dapper and I can succesufly hibernate it thru gnome, but I can't bring the system back again. I have to shut the power off and boot it again.
[05:49] <nickrud> intelikey, you must have removed it, or, nm :)
[05:49] <Sir_Fawnpug> Everybody loves RPMs.
[05:49] <KurtKraut> Any suggestions ?
[05:49] <arrick> ubotu: partitions is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GnomeComputerMenu on how to find missing partitions.
[05:49] <ubotu> ...but partitions is already something else...
[05:49] <tonyyarusso> TheFaction20: Yes, but it will bog down your RAM.
[05:49] <__mikem> I love binary installers
[05:49] <arrick> ok

[05:51] <__mikem> does liinx or lynx or how ever its spelled still exist
[05:51] <Sir_Fawnpug> Yes.
[05:51] <Sir_Fawnpug> Links
[05:51] <Sir_Fawnpug> And lynx both I think.
[05:51] <venska_rossy> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[05:51] <__mikem> !links
[05:51] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, __mikem
[05:51] <intelikey> WebLOCH it looks like 1.8 is the breezy vresion of epip
[05:51] <__mikem> obviously if I got hit by a windmill I wouldn't be here right now
[05:52] <TheFaction20> Can the ubuntu install make like 3 partitions? one splitting the xp from the files and then add another for ubuntu?
[05:52] <arrick> ubotu: lostpartitions is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GnomeComputerMenu on how to find missing partitions.
[05:52] <ubotu> okay, arrick
[05:52] <KurtKraut> How can I hibernate a Ubuntu box ?
[05:52] <wastrel> links, lynx, w3m
[05:52] <WebLOCH> intelikey, yeah i know ive been using it for awhile, but the dependancies for  2.x are the same, so i wnated to upgrade
[05:52] <Sir_Fawnpug> KurKraut, my hibernate was installed out of the box.
[05:52] <intelikey> WebLOCH you could build the new one.
[05:52] <Sir_Fawnpug> Err, KurtKraut
[05:53] <Sir_Fawnpug> Sorry
[05:53] <__mikem> I run my laptop off of ac power so I don't need hibernate
[05:53] <WebLOCH> intelikey, i cant find the source, im on the epip site, any directions?
[05:53] <intelikey> no.
[05:53] <TheFaction20> Can the ubuntu install make like 3 partitions? one splitting the xp from the files and then add another for ubuntu?
[05:53] <Sir_Fawnpug> Anybody happen to be familiar with acer_acpi? I'm having trouble getting the module to load on my Acer Aspire 3004WLCi
[05:53] <KurtKraut> Sir_Fawnpug, I'm able to hibernate my computer, but I don't know how to bring it back after hibernating.
[05:53] <LadyNikon> yay bye bye gnomer terminal :D
[05:53] <WebLOCH> intelikey, i just saw the link, i am such a moron
[05:53] <intelikey> WebLOCH search source forge
[05:53] <Sir_Fawnpug> Kurt, power button probably.
[05:54] <Jeshua> Oh well, back-ish.
[05:54] <intelikey> k
[05:54] <KurtKraut> Sir_Fawnpug, no, I've tried that, no response.
[05:54] <Sir_Fawnpug> Or opening the lid.
[05:54] <KurtKraut> I'm trying to hibernate a desktop, not a laptop
[05:54] <__mikem> Some laptops hibernate when you close the lid while they are running
[05:54] <Sir_Fawnpug> Oh, I see.
[05:54] <Sir_Fawnpug> I don't know about desktop hibernation, I never needed it myself.
[05:54] <__mikem> I don't understand the point of hibernating a desktop
[05:55] <__mikem> computers use virtually no power, except for the monitor which you can turn off
[05:55] <__mikem> and the fans which won't run unless the thing starts to over heat which won't be that often if you are not using it
[05:55] <tar_> How can I disable UIM for a session? It's interfering with many of my applications.
[05:55] <intelikey> yeah and my bios does all but powerdown this box anyway....    better than screen saver.
[05:55] <KurtKraut> __mikem, if your building is on fire and you don't have enough time to save all your current work it is the quickiest way of shutting off a computer without loosing the current data :P
[05:55] <LathropWells> around 200watts for a desktop muchless for a laptop
[05:55] <__mikem> lol
[05:56] <Sir_Fawnpug> I dunno man, a P4 dissipates ALOT of power.
[05:57] <__mikem> Sir_Fawnpug never heard of that happening
[05:57] <intelikey> what is UIM ?
[05:58] <michael> Does anybody know if a Creative Nomad Zen Xtra will play OGG Vorbis?
[05:58] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, a P4 dissipating alot of power? They're notorious for that aren't they?
[05:58] <tar_> UIM is the input manager that I am using for Japanese input.
[05:58] <__mikem> I always used athlon chips
[05:58] <__mikem> but I don't know if that makes a difference
[05:58] <__mikem> same archetecture
[05:58] <tar_> I just removed it, and I'm going to see if my problems disappear now.
[05:58] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, well it has more to do with how the chips are designed I think
[05:58] <TheFaction20> michael:im pretty sure that they dont play ogg's. i have a creative and they wont go on
[05:58] <intelikey> oh universal input manager   hehhe
[05:59] <__mikem> yes, so I doubt it makes a difference if its an intel or an athlon
[05:59] <__mikem> because the athlon chips use the intel designs
[05:59] <michael> TheFaction, if I rip to FLAC, can I convert to MP3 and keep the ID3 tags?
[05:59] <LathropWells> someone mentioned "netcat" earlier. take a look at "socat"  ;)
[06:00] <Jeshua> Oh dear..
[06:00] <kartik> can i use webcam while chatting from yahoo messenger???????
[06:00] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, well not nessescarily. AMD at one point did second source chips, but I think the latter support was reverse engineering.
[06:00] <__mikem> Yes, years ago they had their own chips
[06:01] <TheFaction20> michael:im not sure, havent had to do that much converting. actually never had to. but if u can get tit to mp3 its not hard to customize the id3 tags
[06:01] <sinblox> Can anyone direct me to instructions/help me to get Realplayer working in FireFox? When I try to run RM files that are on websites it tries to use totem
[06:01] <michael> TheFaction20, what is a good program to rip o MP3?
[06:01] <wastrel> bye now
[06:01] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, well I'd liken it to more like how sparcs are. The operating specifications are more or less the same, but not nessescarily the same.
[06:01] <__mikem> I don't know if real player has plugin support for firefox in linux
[06:01] <Sir_Fawnpug> err
[06:02] <Sir_Fawnpug> I meant the design is not nessescarily the same, just the architecture.
[06:02] <TheFaction20> michael: to be honest i dont know that one. im sure someone here can help you
[06:02] <__mikem> I have no experience with sparcs so, I wouldn't know about that
[06:02] <sinblox> Damn. Hmm
[06:02] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, the SPARC architecture is open, at least in comparison to the x86
[06:02] <arrick> michael, ask _jason your question
[06:03] <__mikem> Sparc is by Sun right?
[06:03] <_jason> sinblox: mplayer with w32codecs can play them
[06:03] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, well by FreeScale/Motorola.
[06:03] <kartik> !how to use webcam while cyhatting??????
[06:03] <ubotu> kartik: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:03] <michael> _jason, what is a good program to rip o MP3?
[06:03] <WebLOCH> intelikey, do you run epiphany 2.14?
[06:03] <arrick> kartik, good luck
[06:03] <__mikem> I see
[06:03] <intelikey> WebLOCH i use links2
[06:03] <LathropWells> search your favorite player ans LAME it sould be able to encode to mp3.
[06:03] <sinblox> _jason: so just install mplayer then?
[06:03] <sinblox> (sorry I'm a bit of a newbie)
[06:03] <WebLOCH> intelikey, okay
[06:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell sinblox about replacetotem
[06:04] <arrick> night all
[06:04] <_jason> ubotu: tell sinblox about mplayer
[06:04] <sinblox> Thanks Jason
[06:04] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, I guess a better analogy might be the PowerPC architecture, or the ARM architecture.
[06:04] <_jason> michael: I don't know of a good one, i've never had to do it sorry
[06:04] <Sir_Fawnpug> Basically the design expectations are the same, but the means to get there are not.
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> michael: grip
[06:04] <LathropWells> socat - glad i am not a hacker - roflmao
[06:04] <depakote> http://s49.photobucket.com/albums/f278/tripps6969/?
[06:04] <michael> _jason; what about converting FLAC to MP3 and keeping theID3 tag?
[06:04] <WebLOCH> anyone here running epiphany 2.14?
[06:04] <kartik> how to use webcam in yahoo??????
[06:04] <__mikem> Speaking of PowerPC, Apple is using the intel chips now
[06:05] <sinblox> !mplayer
[06:05] <ubotu> mplayer is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[06:05] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, yep, although if I were jobs I would've stayed with a RISC processor.
[06:05] <intelikey> WebLOCH my hdd is only 610m so space is vital.  i have to use the lightest of apps if i have a gui.   most of what i do is cli.
[06:05] <Sir_Fawnpug> I think the x86 is actaully a very messy platform.
[06:05] <__mikem> Yup, to much concern with backwards compat
[06:05] <TTilus> Sir_Fawnpug: messy and fast per buck
[06:05] <WebLOCH> intelikey, im impressed, i wouldnt wnat to do it myself, i like the idea of the efficiency but at the same time, i like pretty.
[06:06] <__mikem> an instruction set that was overextended
[06:06] <Sir_Fawnpug> But the way the hardware proliferates is amazing
[06:06] <Sir_Fawnpug> TTilus, I wasn't arguing against the x86 per se.
[06:06] <TTilus> all concern with backwards compat is good concern
[06:06] <TTilus> Sir_Fawnpug: i know  :)
[06:06] <__mikem> yes, it will be interesting to see if any newcommers imerge in the market as 64 bit computing catches on
[06:06] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, well you'll notice alot of older computers have relatively large instruction sets too.
[06:07] <__mikem> Yes, but they are more thought out and a bit neater
[06:07] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, maybe not as much as you think.
[06:07] <oRxo> heeey i'm in ubuntu!!!!!!!!
[06:07] <TTilus> Sir_Fawnpug: i wasn't arguing per pro x86
[06:07] <Sir_Fawnpug> Some are.
[06:07] <TheDracle> Eh, more geared for compilers is more important than neat.
[06:07] <LathropWells> Welcome oRxo :)
[06:07] <TheFaction20> do any of you guys like any of the usb thumbdrive distros?
[06:07] <Sir_Fawnpug> TTilus, ahh, I just thought at first I gave the impression I'm against the PC or anything, which would be odd, considering I'm using one.
[06:07] <__mikem> I have some experience with x86 asm, and I rarely use more than mov, push, call, add, sub, etc
[06:08] <intelikey> WebLOCH yeah eye candy is sweet if you can afford it.   links2 -g   does a pretty good job tho.   and it also works in text mode so i don't have to start a gui.    for anyone thinking "minimal" i recomend links2.
[06:08] <TheDracle> __mikem: But compilers tend to use a lot more.
[06:08] <bimberi> !tell michael about ripping
[06:08] <TTilus> __mikem: leave the other stuff to compilers
[06:08] <kartik> can i reinstall windows in my computer????????
[06:08] <WebLOCH> intelikey, if you lived in the UK i would send yuou a spare HDD
[06:08] <intelikey> :)
[06:08] <Sir_Fawnpug> Well every now and then an obscure opcode can be good when you're hashing out assembly.
[06:08] <TTilus> kartik: any reason why not?  (i can figure out several  :)
[06:08] <__mikem> Actually, I disassembled a lot of code immited by visual c++, and didn't see much leveraging of the other instructions
[06:08] <TheDracle> Right, having a huge insruction set is good if the extra instructions can be wielded by a good compiler.
[06:08] <Sir_Fawnpug> If you know how to use it.
[06:09] <Sir_Fawnpug> __mikem, was the code optimized?
[06:09] <TheDracle> __mikem: So have I, you haven't dissaembled enough :p And enough varied compilers.
[06:09] <TTilus> kartik: do you mean to install (re)windows as only platform?
[06:09] <__mikem> Yes
[06:09] <TheDracle> __mikem: But yes, 90% of instructions will be mov, and add, and push.
[06:09] <Sir_Fawnpug> To what level?
[06:09] <intelikey> kartik you are not allowed to go back to windows.  now don't ask again!   and go to your room.
[06:09] <LathropWells> lol
[06:09] <TTilus> kartik: or perhaps (re)install windows in side of ubuntu?
[06:09] <intelikey> :)
[06:09] <casey_> Greetings.
[06:10] <__mikem> Its a deep rooted issue heavly influenced by business decisions as apposed to rational thought
[06:10] <WebLOCH> TTilus, VM is the Devil
[06:10] <Sir_Fawnpug> TheDracle, it doesn't help execution any if you have to wait on microcode.
[06:10] <kartik> TTilus : i want to reinstall because i am not able to access my webcam
[06:10] <casey_> Might I ask a kind of esoteric sound-related question?
[06:10] <TTilus> kartik: webcam in windows?
[06:11] <LadyNikon> alright
[06:11] <LadyNikon> question
[06:11] <TTilus> casey_: no?   go ahead!!1
[06:11] <LadyNikon> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion can someone look at this page for me
[06:11] <TTilus> kartik: you have win ubuntu dualboot?
[06:11] <_jason> LadyNikon: what's the question
[06:11] <LathropWells> If you really must have windows reinstalled - ask the question and we can help (heck it is very likely you will be back here after the next virus/spyware/keylogger infection.
[06:11] <kartik> ttilus:because in ubuntu i am not able to use wwebcam while chatting from yahoo messenger
[06:11] <dtrostis> question guys, an easy one. Where Ubuntu stores the desktop backgrounds
[06:11] <casey_> Alright, so here it is.  I have an A7N8X-DX mainboard and I'm using the S/PDIF sound.  So I set up an asoundrc file to get that working, but OSS programs give me no sound.
[06:11] <__mikem> I never had any luck doing duel boot
[06:12] <casey_> Furthermore, the aoss wrapper causes them to segfault and work in unusual ways.
[06:12] <__mikem> the partitioning software we tried using never worked
[06:12] <casey_> (Rather than making them, y'know, produce sound).
[06:12] <LadyNikon> jason_: it just froze on me
[06:12] <TTilus> kartik: if you have problems in ubuntu, reinstalling windows will definitely not help you, quite contrary, windows install will propably squash ubuntu away without asking you any questions
[06:13] <LadyNikon> ill ask tomorrow when i wake up
[06:13] <intelikey> dtrostis /usr/X11* maybe ?
[06:13] <LadyNikon> bugers all
[06:13] <casey_> I'm assuming you'll want to look at the .asoundrc file.
[06:13] <dtrostis> maybe ladynikon, I will try there
[06:13] <LathropWells> windows for games. Ubuntu for everyrthing else
[06:13] <TTilus> kartik: iirc yahoo in linux does not support video
[06:13] <TTilus> kartik: i could be wrong
[06:14] <Sir_Fawnpug> TTilus, actually the two can co-exist peacefully even if you reinstall windows afterwards
[06:14] <TTilus> Sir_Fawnpug: tell me more, i would _love_ to know how to do that
[06:14] <kartik> ttilus:is that going to put any trouble to the mother board???????
[06:14] <Sir_Fawnpug> I keep windows around due to a microsoft pawn up at school.
[06:14] <casey_> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-75317.html Here, I used this asoundrc file.
[06:14] <dtrostis> sorry, intelikey
[06:14] <intelikey> np
[06:14] <TTilus> Sir_Fawnpug: i'm well aware that at some point some of my buddies will be asking that question  :)
[06:15] <IdleOne> !tell TTilus about dualboot
[06:15] <TTilus> kartik: one question mark does fine, dont waste them
[06:15] <Sir_Fawnpug> TTilus, at least in my general experience, besides the bootloader issue and of course having to keep a small FAT32 partition
[06:15] <TTilus> kartik: depends on what "that" is
[06:15] <Sir_Fawnpug> There weren't many issues with dual boot.
[06:15] <TTilus> kartik: you mean reinstalling windows?
[06:15] <casey_> So do any of you guys have any idea about the sound thing?
[06:15] <dtrostis> I couln't find it there. I have also a problem trying with the art manager :( It doesn't work, I mean it downloads and the dissapears.
[06:15] <kartik> ttilus:ya
[06:16] <TTilus> kartik: if you want to reinstall windows because you have problem with webcam in linux, Do Not Do That!
[06:16] <born_> j #ubuntu-br
[06:16] <TTilus> kartik: it wont help ya
[06:16] <Sir_Fawnpug> Naturally if you reinstall windows afterwards its going to want to overwrite the boot sector, but that's no problem, since you can just get a livecd, chroot into your root, and run grub
[06:16] <TTilus> kartik: and the problem most propably is not a prob at all
[06:16] <dtrostis> question guys, an easy one. Where Ubuntu stores the desktop backgrounds
[06:16] <TTilus> kartik: but a feature
[06:16] <intelikey> dtrostis if you know any of the names use   find /usr -name *blah*     it can tell you where.
[06:16] <tonyyarusso> born_: /join #ubuntu-br
[06:16] <kartik> ttilus:but i was able to access webcam in windows
[06:17] <__mikem> I always prefere to put linux on an old machine that is no longer in heavy use
[06:17] <Sionide> huzzah
[06:17] <TTilus> kartik: have you asked yahoo forums or somewhere where there are yahoo linux people?
[06:17] <Sionide> stupid exploit
[06:17] <__mikem> like this presario 900 I am on
[06:17] <born_> tonyyarusso,  I got it ! Thanks
[06:17] <TTilus> kartik: that does not have anything to do with the issue, windows and ubuntu are independet
[06:17] <__mikem> that way we don't need to worry about hurting a windows instalation
[06:17] <LathropWells> Old computers never die they just get more flexible and powerful with linux. :)
[06:18] <kartik> ttilus:ya they said in linux we cant use webcam feature
[06:18] <born_> tonyyarusso,  We can type only /j #channel  too.
[06:18] <TTilus> kartik: if something works under windows you can not deduce upon that something workin on ubuntu and vice versa
[06:18] <TTilus> kartik: so there you are
[06:18] <TTilus> kartik: if you want to use webcam in linux, use chatapp which supports webcam in linux
[06:18] <intelikey> LathropWells flexible and powerful ?   hmmmm i thought that linux just made use of what was there......
[06:18] <TTilus> kartik: i personally use gnomemeeting
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> if you can find a supported webcam
[06:19] <oRxo> hmm i'm having trouble trying to install mplayer
[06:19] <__mikem> talk about splitting hairs
[06:19] <LadyNikon> gn all
[06:19] <Arrick> !mplayer
[06:19] <ubotu> [mplayer]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto  For compiling, see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31061
[06:19] <oRxo> in debian, you added merriliat to the apt/sources
[06:19] <__mikem> night ladynikon
[06:19] <Elhaz> Hello
[06:19] <biovore> oRxo: ubuntu has a mplayer in there repos
[06:19] <LathropWells> there is joy in reusing a 200mhz laptop to serve webpages.
[06:19] <kartik> ttilus:from gnomemeeting can i access my yahoo account?
[06:19] <Elhaz> can somebody help me with my modem?
[06:19] <eth0-noob> hello
[06:19] <TTilus> Sir_Fawnpug: umm, gotta remember to have livecd ready
[06:20] <TTilus> kartik: hmm, yahoo, propably not, but i dont know for sure
[06:20] <eth0-noob> is there anyway i could make an ssh server on my windows computer and come over from my linux computer?
[06:20] <__mikem> LathropWells hope you have more bandwidth than you do processor speed
[06:20] <TTilus> kartik: i dont use yahoo
[06:20] <intelikey> !modem
[06:20] <ubotu> methinks modem is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[06:20] <Elhaz> yeah..
[06:20] <Elhaz> but..
[06:20] <eth0-noob> ?
[06:20] <Sir_Fawnpug> LAter nikon
[06:20] <Elhaz> i haver the Driver..
[06:20] <Elhaz> and i don`t know what happen
[06:21] <kartik> ttilus:please can i know what do u use for chatting with other people?
[06:21] <eth0-noob> is there a possible way i can make an ssh server on my winsows xp computer and ssh over from my computer?
[06:21] <Sir_Fawnpug> TTilus, the headache is minor in my experience.
[06:21] <tonyyarusso> eth0-noob: Look into putty.
[06:21] <Sir_Fawnpug> When you don't know about chroot it does suck though.
[06:22] <intelikey> eth0-noob yes.   google  putty
[06:22] <eth0-noob> ok
[06:22] <__mikem> or tight vnc
[06:22] <eth0-noob> well
[06:22] <eth0-noob> yea
[06:22] <eth0-noob> uhm but all i really am trying to do is copy some music files from windows to my computer
[06:22] <manji> hey, so how do fonts work in X if i wanted to specify one on the command line
[06:22] <eth0-noob> im using samba... but there is an error.. needs octet or something?
[06:22] <tonyyarusso> eth0-noob: Hmm, that says client; not sure if it does server or if you set it up with something else for that.  That'll get you going in the right direction anyway.
[06:22] <oRxo> well i've got my sources, open to restricted, universe, multiverse
[06:23] <TTilus> kartik: gnomemeeting, but i would not call that "chatting" in the sense you propably mean
[06:23] <__mikem> if your computer is on a network, all you need to do is provide the ip address of the computer you want to access
[06:23] <TTilus> kartik: that would be more like videoconference
[06:23] <[aJ] > I just setup MySQL on a Ubuntu server and I can't connect to it from another machine I receive the error "ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'jinx' (111)"   Does Ubuntu have a firewall setup by default that does not allow for me to connect? Anyone know how to fix this?
[06:23] <tonyyarusso> eth0-noob: It might be easier for you to hope someone here can help you with samba then.
[06:23] <Elhaz> ok.. thanks for help me
[06:24] <eth0-noob> __mikem, i have already done that. i have actually browsed through stuff on windows, but i cant copy them? heh.
[06:24] <manji> hey how do you specify X fonts at the command line?
[06:24] <manji> whats the format?
[06:24] <__mikem> interesting, you don't have read access to the files
[06:24] <eth0-noob> i guess not
[06:24] <eth0-noob> i actually
[06:24] <TTilus> [aJ] : i assume mysql on ubuntu doesnt have net enabled by default, see mysql conf (ps. clumsy nick you have)
[06:24] <eth0-noob> had to kind of hack it so i could browse windows
[06:24] <eth0-noob> using ettercap.
[06:24] <eth0-noob> using a couple plug-ins.
[06:25] <__mikem> that sounds like it might be a problem on the other end though, that is to say not on your linux box
[06:25] <mahangu> what's the bash to grep a file for "foo" and then remove all lines that have that?
[06:25] <[aJ] > TTilus: How would I enabled net access?
[06:25] <eth0-noob> hm
[06:25] <eth0-noob> i hate windows...
[06:25] <__mikem> ditto
[06:25] <eth0-noob> aj
[06:25] <kartik> ttilus:please can u tell me the procedure for inviting other to vedioconference in gnomemeeting?

[06:28] <TTilus> [aJ] : it means mysql is only listening localhost
[06:29] <[aJ] > TTilus: just add a , and the ip?

[06:30] <eth0-noob> hm
[06:30] <Agent_bob> JohnP789 not likely without modifying the initrd.img,  because the support for ide and vfat are not in initrd.img on the installer.

[06:41] <WiFi_Warri0r> ;)
[06:41] <narg> google is all knowing. It just denies knowledge to mortals when it sees fit. :)
[06:41] <simple1> very poorly at that.

[06:46] <eth0-noob> hopefull this works for you.
[06:46] <Crankeye> ethercap is fun heh
[06:47] <Crankeye> but yeah anyone have any clue why why x crashes only at startup
[06:47] <simple1> Crankeye less /var/log/messages   and  less /var/log/x<tab_key>     have a look at the logs.

[06:50] <WiFi_Warri0r> thnx alot for whoever told me how to get gcc!!!!!!!!
[06:51] <simple1> !b-e
[06:51] <ubotu> [b-e]  no make ?  you need build-essential or if you get errors saying gcc cannot create executables, or that you can't find header files like stdio.h, you need to do a    sudo apt-get install build-essential.
[06:51] <Sionide> WiFi_Warri0r, build-essential ? yeah.. fun stuff
[06:51] <Crankeye> maybe i should consult google
[06:51] <DBO> does anyone else have a clock applet that leaks memory like it is going out of style (in GNOME)
[06:52] <simple1> Crankeye check the x logs too like i first said
[06:52] <WiFi_Warri0r> what does that command mean tho?
[06:53] <WiFi_Warri0r> i mean i did it, but i dont understan what i did
[06:53] <WiFi_Warri0r> :\
[06:53] <Crankeye> hmmm i might of missed it one sec
[06:53] <WiFi_Warri0r> it doesnt help me if i dont understsand what im doin
[06:53] <Crankeye> ah ok well i seem to have found part of the error in my /var/log/syslog
[06:53] <Crankeye> Mar 29 21:40:03 localhost gdm[7005] : gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0
[06:54] <simple1> WiFi_Warri0r b-e is a meta package (empty package)  that depends on every thing that you need to compile 'most' things.
[06:54] <vvlaw_> anybody knows that how to set the config when i could not into the X window ?
[06:54] <WiFi_Warri0r> roy@ubuntu:~$ apt-get install build-essential
[06:54] <WiFi_Warri0r> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[06:54] <WiFi_Warri0r> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[06:54] <WiFi_Warri0r> ??
[06:54] <bimberi> WiFi_Warri0r: build-essential has a number of dependencies including libraries and compilers.  When you install it those things are installed with it.
[06:55] <bimberi> WiFi_Warri0r: sudo apt-get....
[06:55] <WiFi_Warri0r> i already did that one
[06:55] <WiFi_Warri0r> it completed
[06:55] <WiFi_Warri0r> ;/
[06:55] <simple1> WiFi_Warri0r sudo.     also make sure that synaptic or aptitude are not running.
[06:55] <WiFi_Warri0r> so gcc is installed now?
[06:55] <vvlaw_> no body knows ?
[06:55] <simple1> if you installed b-e then you have gcc. WiFi_Warri0r    gcc --version
[06:56] <bimberi> WiFi_Warri0r: if build-essential has installed successfully then yes
[06:56] <Crankeye> simplel i cant find the x<tab> file but i did find Xorg.0.log is this correct?
[06:56] <WiFi_Warri0r> kk checking
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> WiFi_Warri0r,  try gcc --version

[06:58] <WiFi_Warri0r> lol
[06:58] <carthik> Eleaf, "have you tried restarting the machine in question?" lol
[06:58] <Eleaf> This guy messages me, and he starts harrasing me "kinda"
[06:58] <Eleaf> then says if you don't tell me something I'll ddos you
[06:58] <Crankeye> are you sure he ddosed you or jsut dosed
[06:58] <Crankeye> dd = distribute denial
[06:58] <jbroome> Eleaf: if you're on the net right now, it's a pretty weak dos
[06:58] <Eleaf> then my internet went down, I saw all the bandwidth was taken up.
[06:58] <Crankeye> d = just plain denial
[06:58] <Eleaf> jbroome, I think it stopped..
