[03:13] <OkinawaSkittles5> i am trying to run ubuntu live cd 6.06 but it keeps hanging up at saving VESA state, i have tried ... pnpbios=off noapic noapic apci=off noacpi  ... does anyone else have any ideas or suggestions
[03:13] <navreet> wickedpuppy, basically, it's supposed to help out if you switch how you connect your disks
[03:13] <variant> henke: much better than my celeron and 196mb ram
[03:13] <mztriz> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28986/
[03:14] <strabes> variant: oh check in gconf-editor in apps/nautilus for something
[03:14] <AlanHaggai> coolpaul900 : type this at a terminal: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:14] <omac> newbie1: I started a private chat with you...but you aren't answering.
[03:14] <wickedpuppy> navreet, whats supposed to help out ?
[03:14] <AlanHaggai> coolpaul900 : and then paste it in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and send me the link
[03:14] <navreet> wickedpuppy, no, the program should've done that for me... and I do have a backup, but I want to make sure that whatever is reading fstab isn't expecting UUIDs, and there's no guarantee that my old config file will work (but I think it still should)
[03:14] <variant> omac: he is not registerd on freenode so he cant answer
[03:14] <navreet> wickedpuppy, the UUIDs in /etc/fstab
[03:14] <henke> I'll see if I can throw a bootchart screendump link
[03:14] <tazman> hello
[03:14] <dougsko> mztriz: well, you move it with the "mv" command. and you creat a symlink with the "ln" command. you want a soft link, so youd use the -s options switch
[03:14] <ThinkingMan> other question, there are a whole bunch of InputDevice sections in my xorg.conf file for wacom devices, yet I own none of these devices, is it OK to delete those sections?
[03:14] <xipietotec> does anyone know if the error in initramfs has been fixed yet (edgy)?
[03:15] <dabaR> mztriz: what part of that do you not understand?
[03:15] <dougsko> mztriz: man ln, man mv, and google can guide you further
[03:15] <RhiNo> i go to install something and i get the message "only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time" how do i close whatever else is running?
[03:15] <wickedpuppy> navreet, why make it so complicated ??????? i never think of such things when i do upgrade ... if i don't like whatever thats new i restore my backup file
[03:16] <BetaCookies> how can i reinstall the bootloader? grub didnt get installed.. the windows bootloader is still there.. I have a windows disk, then I have ubuntu on a separate disk. The windows is SATA, the ubuntu disk is PATA (aka IDE)
[03:16] <dabaR> omac: you gotta be registered, and him too
[03:16] <dabaR> he too?
[03:16] <xipietotec> RhiNo: system --> system monitor make sure you do not have synaptic or "add remove" running if you're trying to update via command line
[03:16] <variant> strabes: nope, cant do it in gconf either
[03:16] <xipietotec> also you cannot run the add remove and synaptic at the same time
[03:16] <RhiNo> k ty
[03:16] <AkumAPRIME> anyone here knowledgable about dualview xinerama ??
[03:17] <dabaR> AkumAPRIME: that is a stupid form of question...
[03:17] <SlackRat> k, so let me see if i got this right....if i want a stable working system till the next stable (non bleeding edge system) ubuntu, i keep running dapper till sometime next year?
[03:17] <dabaR> Didn't you read !anyone ever?
[03:17] <AkumAPRIME> dabar: is that a yes?
[03:17] <newbie1> ive dcc chatted you omac
[03:18] <navreet> wickedpuppy, nm... so apparently, my /etc/fstab is correct (even with the UUIDs), but they didn't automount :(
[03:18] <AkumAPRIME> because thats a stupid form of yes
[03:18] <dang`r`us> SlackRat, the current stable is edgy eft
[03:18] <dabaR> AkumAPRIME: no, it means ask your question, and see whether someone is along the way...
[03:18] <highneko> a=`echo "esxdefcgurttiynugi odpehaddslfyg hvjikrgudsx c.d.r.t" | sed 's/\(.\)./\1/g'`; for ((i=0;i<=100;i+=1)); do echo "$i% $a"; sleep .05; done; echo "thank you"
[03:18] <ompaul> ThinkingMan, they do nothing unless you have the hardware so I would not bother touching them
[03:18] <nrdb> Hi, I am thinking of making a PIC micro project, is there an open source PIC C compiler available?
[03:18] <AkumAPRIME> I asked my question, and if someone answers it, I'll continue
[03:18] <coolpaul900>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28989/
[03:18] <SlackRat> i thought edgy is the current edgy release?
[03:18] <AkumAPRIME> Ive asked it  several times today, no need for me to reype it if noone know wtf I'm talking about
[03:18] <coolpaul900> the only problem is this computer I updated allready

[03:19] <dang`r`us> SlackRat, edgy is not a qualifier for ubuntu releases, it's a part of the current stable's name
[03:19] <coolpaul900> well I mean on this computer
[03:20] <Garcher> meh
[03:20] <Garcher> my boot cd doesnt work...
[03:20] <AlanHaggai> coolpaul900 : yes the file is alright
[03:20] <Remy`> Hello, I'm having problems with the screen resolution on Ubuntu 6.10, it's only showing 480x600 and 600x800, when I'm positive my monitor supports higher resolutions.
[03:20] <SlackRat> of course the name is a quantifier, according to shuttleworth anyways

[03:21] <wickedpuppy> Remy`, you should have ubotu messaging you the exact same thing
[03:21] <ompaul> Remy`, the bot sent you that as a message, it would be preferred if you read that :) that is what the !fact>user is about
[03:21] <SlackRat> i m not convinced that an enterprise solution using ubuntu should upgrade to edgy....
[03:21] <AlanHaggai> coolpaul900 : type this in a terminal: gksu "update-manager -c"
[03:21] <ompaul> SlackRat, it should not
[03:21] <Garcher> lol
[03:21] <Remy`> Sorry, I didn't know how that command worked.
[03:21] <MugginsM> enterprise shouldn't upgrade to *anything* without testing it thoroughly for a few weeks
[03:21] <ompaul> SlackRat, dapper is LTS and enterprise
[03:21] <SlackRat> thanks ompaul, that was my basic enquiry
[03:21] <Remy`> The guide is written for 6.06, will it work with 6.10?
[03:22] <variant> strabes: found it, it is tied to the size of icons in the nautilus window, which is stupid
[03:22] <ompaul> Remy`, in most cases
[03:22] <SlackRat> so the next upgrade is when another LTS is released, right?
[03:22] <Remy`> ompaul, thanks, I'll get to trying it.
[03:22] <strabes> variant: that's because the desktop is pretty much one big nautilus window - nautilus controls the desktop
[03:22] <Garcher> so did anyone found a way to fix the usplash error in edgy?
[03:22] <strabes> variant: you can turn that off though
[03:22] <variant> strabes: I know that, but it is still very silly
[03:22] <strabes> Garcher: what usplash error?
[03:22] <dabaR> Garcher: which one is that?
[03:22] <dabaR> strabes: ;)
[03:22] <ompaul> SlackRat, no there will be few six montly updated versions with 18months support on the way then the next LTS
[03:22] <strabes> variant: yeah i know - it shouldnt control it
[03:23] <strabes> dabaRwhat?
[03:23] <strabes> dabaR: what?
[03:23] <strabes> oh
[03:23] <Garcher> the one where it doesnt appear when you boot

[03:23] <AlanHaggai> for me to upgrade, which are the essential repositories?
[03:23] <SlackRat> good point MugginsM.. .  :P
[03:24] <insane_awmn> I run a Battlefield 2 dedicated server, following the instructions of this . But the game at my desktop pc does not find it?.can someone help me to find out what happening ??
[03:24] <dabaR> Garcher: and sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash?
[03:24] <Garcher> oops
[03:24] <Garcher> nope
[03:24] <fildo> ompaul: its psybnc being a bitch
[03:24] <dang`r`us> any known problems with mesa-common-dev in edgy?
[03:24] <tiger_it> dabaR can I ask U somethig ?
[03:24] <SlackRat> dang, we could be talking a year and a half or so, till the next LTS??
[03:24] <dabaR> tiger_it: no
[03:25] <Bacon5o> I was wondering how I could uninstall ubuntu and return my certain partition back to a FAT32?
[03:25] <dang`r`us> SlackRat, no idea when the next LTS will be out
[03:25] <MugginsM> I suspect they'll do another LTS when they feel what they've got is a big enough step over the last one, and when what they've got is relatively stable anyway :)
[03:25] <david__> I have this line in my  "fstab /dev/hda1	/media/hda1	ntfs	defaults,user	0	1" its mounted ok, but i can't look at it unless a do "su" can someone help me?
[03:26] <BetaCookies> how can i determine my X.org version?
[03:26] <apokryphos> Beta_M: dpkg -l|grep -i xorg
[03:26] <tiger_it> dabaR you R antipatic. U know ?
[03:26] <MugginsM> Edgy is nice, but for enterprise setups, I don't see anything that makes it a must have over dapper
[03:26] <SlackRat> ah well, maybe next fall then <crosses fingers>
[03:26] <AlanHaggai> for me to upgrade, which are the essential repositories?
[03:26] <dabaR> david__: replace defaults,user with umask=0222
[03:26] <ompaul> fildo, I don't see anything and please mind your langauge - if you have someone abusing you in a pm then you have two choices (A) complain to an op where you and that person is or (B) go find a freenode staffer
[03:26] <SlackRat> and i imagine alot of dapper will be upgrading as well
[03:26] <apokryphos> AlanHaggai: if you're upgrading please follow the guide
[03:26] <david__> thanx
[03:27] <dabaR> tiger_it: thanks!

[03:28] <t0ny-p40> How do I make it go?
[03:28] <dabaR> you are asking is whether something is OK for you?

[03:29] <t0ny-p40> any know how to get apt-get or dpkg to force downgrade?
[03:29] <cybergod`> ljl: sorry im a newbie, what?
[03:30] <Garcher> you know it used to be like this:
[03:30] <Nuked> how weird is this. After upgrading from dapper to edgy cups no longer recognizes any of my printers connected via usb
[03:30] <Garcher> http://johnbokma.com/mexit/2005/10/25/vmplayer-ubuntu-terminal.png
[03:30] <Fireal> hey everyone,I have a small partition on my primary HD in FAT32, how can I "see" it?  (Like if it is hda3 or hda4 etc.)
[03:30] <Garcher> now its just the $ sign..
[03:30] <tiger_it> t0ny-p40:  why do not uninstall and then re-install
[03:30] <tiger_it> ?
[03:30] <Fireal> trying to mount it
[03:30] <SlackRat> Garcher, whats wrong with that?
[03:30] <t0ny-p40> Fireal: try sudo fdisl -l /dev/hda
[03:30] <SlackRat> some terms do that....
[03:30] <t0ny-p40> toger_it I did.
[03:31] <t0ny-p40> Nothing mysql on my system right now
[03:31] <Garcher> oh ok..
[03:31] <mamonassassina> tiger_it: does Kopete have webcam support?what about custom emoticons?
[03:31] <Fireal> fdisl command not found
[03:31] <mamonassassina> tiger_it: if it has audio conversation support,i'm moving to it now :P
[03:31] <Fireal> fdisk?
[03:31] <SlackRat> i think an xfce terminal does that.....
[03:31] <t0ny-p40> oops fdisk
[03:31] <Nuked> Why wouldnt cups recognize my printers
[03:31] <LjL> cybergod`: nothing, just on this channel we'd like you to keep to a "nice" language
[03:31] <Fireal> tOny: thanks
[03:31] <t0ny-p40> That will list your partitions
[03:31] <thin> is there a quick/easy/n00bFriendly method to install the latest flash player?
[03:31] <cybergod`> how do i switch between languge in ubuntu?
[03:32] <dabaR> Garcher: what is in your /etc/profile?

[03:32] <t0ny-p40> I think
[03:32] <grndslm> evermezah, of course
[03:33] <Nuked> dabaR, any Idea why cups is no longer recognizing my usb printers
[03:33] <tiger_it>  iocharset=utf8 and umask=000 are important features
[03:33] <LjL> cybergod`: if you mean keyboard layout, i think there is an applet (i.e. right click on the panel, add applet, and find it somewhere) - can't say precisely because i use kde, not gnome
[03:33] <everamzah> hmm, okay, i wasn't sure if gnome's volume management (or some system) blocked it, cause i had a failure. alas, i will try once more
[03:33] <everamzah> ;)
[03:33] <thin> ?

[03:35] <tiger_it> Fireal:  yes!! auto-mount!!
[03:35] <MugginsM> henke: 'fraid I don't know much more than that
[03:35] <Fireal> tiger_it: thanks will give it a enthusiastic newbie try!
[03:35] <ompaul> MugginsM, did it check a partition on the drive, or have a problem getting the network connection
[03:35] <henke> MugginsM: ok, thanks. modprobe - can I manually set hw?
[03:35] <Fireal> an enthusiastic
[03:35] <Garcher> thanks dabaR!
[03:35] <tiger_it> Fireal:  U R welcome!
[03:35] <wrabbit^> I'd really appreciate it if I could get a little help.  The Ubuntu forums don't seem to have the answer
[03:36] <godmachine81> wrabbit^:: i might can help you
[03:36] <godmachine81> do you not have any sound period? or just certain apps?
[03:36] <Eric> Hey im havin issues installing this file it says "Only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time" and i went into system monitor and didnt see "update manager", "aptitude" or "synaptic" running
[03:36] <Eric> what should i do
[03:36] <Nuked> dabar I didnt change anything. How would I reconfigure if the only printer types im allowed to choose from are those via samba ?
[03:36] <Code-E> Can anybody help me?
[03:36] <wrabbit^> godmachine81, My friend has no sound after upgrading to edgy.  What are some basic things I can do to work out the problem?
[03:37] <ompaul> Eric, easy answer reboot, hard answer find the synaptic that is open and close it or use it
[03:37] <tiger_it> dabaR:  I;ve no problem with anyone....... so... can I know WHY R U so bad with me ? is for my poor english ? or because Ive 3 days in Linux ?
[03:37] <Eric> idk how to find it
[03:37] <Eric> i did reboot and it was still doing that
[03:37] <godmachine81> wrabbit^:: make sure the sound module got loaded:  do lspci |grep -i audio   see what kind of sound device they have.. do lsmod and look for the appropriate module being loaded
[03:38] <tiger_it> dabaR:  Im an aprentice!! I need advises from people who knows more...
[03:38] <MugginsM> wrabbit: also something that got me with sound once was it set all the volumes to zero, so sound was working it was just silent. Check the mixer
[03:38] <Eric> any suggestions?
[03:38] <wrabbit^> godmachine81: Thank you.  He's not here at the moment so I've gotta write a few things down to take back.  Anything else I can try?
[03:38] <ompaul> Eric, are you the only admin on the box?
[03:39] <Eric> yes
[03:39] <tiger_it> MugginsM: apt-get install kmix
[03:39] <Code-E> Is there nobody that can help me with my problem I stated above
[03:39] <ArrenLex> wrabbit^: sound problems? Make him run "amixer" and send the output to us.
[03:39] <SlackRat> run alsa.conf if you wanna run sound thru alsa
[03:39] <godmachine81> wrabbit^:: yea you will need to check to make sure that alsa is running, you can do sudo /etc/init.d/alsasound restart  are you on regular Ubuntu (gnome) ?
[03:39] <wrabbit^> MugginsM, sounds simple enough to work ;) I'll try that too.

[03:40] <tiger_it> dabaR:  Im talkling U.......
[03:40] <wrabbit^> godmachine81: I think so
[03:40] <davidindarlo> can someone tell me how to pair a bluetooth mouse in edgy?

[03:40] <baggio1000000> i was at 70% on dapper, now 40% on edgy
[03:40] <Code-E> Nobody can help me?
[03:40] <Code-E> >_<
[03:40] <godmachine81> wrabbit^:: that was a good idea that he told you.. the mixer levels sometimes get dropped down. make sure the "pcm" is turned up and the "master" as well
[03:40] <dabaR> tiger_it: what do you want me to answer exactly?
[03:40] <cartucho> Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[03:40] <cartucho> X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

[03:41] <ubotu> hegemon: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:41] <dabaR> tiger_it: what is wrong, dude?
[03:41] <tiger_it> dabaR:  just that!! I j would like just know
[03:41] <dbmonk74> My monitor stops displaying video during the boot-up process
[03:41] <Eric> ompaul yes it does
[03:41] <tiger_it> dabaR:  Ive ask you....... you know.......
[03:41] <Flatz> I'm getting much happier with the Edgy upgrade thanks to variant and crimsun
[03:41] <cartucho> dabaR: any tips how to fix this ? i made the binary driver how to
[03:41] <baggio1000000> monk, try booting in safe graphics mode
[03:42] <ompaul> tiger_it, please stop misunderstanding  this is a text enviroment - it is easy to missunderstand and try to work with others
[03:42] <Flatz> Soudn card now works and all my drives are back
[03:42] <tiger_it> dabaR:  ok...... forget it!! maybe you have a bad-day
[03:42] <wrabbit^> ok, thanks guys.  This is enough to get us started.  I'll catch up with him later tonight so I'll let you know how things go
[03:42] <dbmonk74> If I'm booting from CD, how would I make that happen?
[03:42] <Eric> says eric   5916 0.0  0.1 2796  752 pts/0   S+  22:41  0:00  grep  syna
[03:42] <baggio1000000> you can boot in safe graphics with the cd
[03:42] <tiger_it> ompaul:  I hope...... U R right!
[03:42] <ompaul> Eric, then you have no other one that is the command finding itself
[03:42] <Eric> how do i make it not do that?
[03:42] <dbmonk74> I'll check for documentation on that - thanks :)
[03:43] <Abst> How do you make a script run at startup?
[03:43] <Flatz> One more question.  I have 2 mount points listed as /windows and /windows2.  However they are under /  I want them to be under /home/frank ( this is my home directory ).  Can I do this?
[03:43] <ompaul> Eric,  do this >>ps auwx | grep  syna | grep -v grep << does that give any output?
[03:43] <godmachine81> Eric:: thats normal
[03:43] <Nuked> anyone have in depth knowledge of cups?
[03:43] <tiger_it> ompaul:  anyway......... I know the anglo-speakers dont like how i speak
[03:43] <Eric> no output paul
[03:43] <MugginsM> flatz: simple way is just to do a softlink.     ln -s /windows /home/frank/windows
[03:43] <SlackRat> tiger_it, thats a generalization
[03:44] <MugginsM> flatz: doesn't move them but it's a handy shortcut
[03:44] <godmachine81> Eric:: try ps aux|grep dpkg |grep -v grep
[03:44] <tiger_it> SlackRat:  may be
[03:44] <Eric> godmachine i cannot run a install file though because it says something else is running
[03:44] <Abst> Flatz: Try gksudo gedit /etc/fdisk
[03:44] <SlackRat> my guess is clueless flamelords dont like how you speak
[03:44] <BetaCookies> Hey
[03:44] <Eric> no output
[03:44] <ompaul> tiger_it, you can't claim that, I speak english more than 90% of the time
[03:44] <Abst> Flatz: Nvm
[03:44] <cx> how do you turn on AIGLX in Edgy?
[03:44] <davidindarlo> can someone tell me how to pair a bluetooth mouse in edgy?
[03:44] <ompaul> Eric, so it is not seeing any process
[03:44] <godmachine81> Eric:: try ps aux |grep -i update |grep -v grep
[03:45] <Flatz> MugginsM: The only reason I care is when I login via FTP, I don't see those directories.  Will the softlink make them available when I connect to the box via FTP?
[03:45] <tiger_it> ompaul:  you......... but not me. Im living in Argentina
[03:45] <MugginsM> flatz: ah, might not, depends how ftp is setup
[03:45] <Flatz> Muggins:  I only see my home.  I want to see those two directories
[03:45] <ompaul> godmachine81, all yours .. :)
[03:45] <BetaCookies> I think that I need a better driver for my network adapter because it takes forever looking up hostnames -- or maybe it is using a weird dns server.. how can i change network stuff like that?
[03:45] <snoops> cx umm well in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf there's a flag you can turn on for extra info on that try out www.beryl-project.org
[03:45] <godmachine81> lol @ ompaul

[03:45] <Eric> oh wow
[03:45] <rixth> Is there a program that I can point an MP3 and it will fix the length header? I have files that are being reported as 9 minutes, when they are only 4.

[03:46] <snoops> Remy`, you can sudo chown the file
[03:46] <[ANF] MasterNinja> i cant use my wifi card on my laptop :(
[03:47] <snoops> or just open it in root.. sudo nano as SlackRat said
[03:47] <Eric> no output
[03:47] <Remy`> Alright, I'll try that.
[03:47] <t0ny-p40> any know how to get network manager to work on edgy?
[03:47] <godmachine81> Eric:: ok try killall -9 update-notifier && sudo apt-get update

[03:47] <cx> t0ny-p40, nm-applet --sm-disable
[03:47] <ompaul> tiger_it, as your english is not understood I suggest you ask in #ubuntu-es
[03:48] <[ANF] MasterNinja> Cysco systems 350 wifi card aronet wifi card wont connect tried everything. First time on linux.
[03:48] <ompaul> tiger_it, it should make for better help
[03:48] <godmachine81> update-notifier shouldnt be tying up your dpkg lockfile.. but i suppose its possible
[03:48] <tiger_it> ompaul:  thank you........ but there are less people there!!
[03:48] <Eric> ig
[03:48] <Eric> ic*
[03:48] <t0ny-p40> cx:I did that it does not see any interface. even ethernet
[03:48] <godmachine81> you see what Eric ?
[03:48] <ompaul> tiger_it, better be understood than have mistakes - you don't break a machine that way
[03:48] <Eric> well it went to 0% [connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com]   [connecting to security.ubuntu.com]
[03:48] <t0ny-p40> cx:even as root
[03:48] <[ANF] MasterNinja> Cysco systems 350 wifi card Aronet WiFi card wont connect tried everything. First time on linux.
[03:48] <Eric> and it is doing nothing
[03:48] <godmachine81> Eric:: that means its not locked
[03:49] <godmachine81> if it was locked it would say it is locked
[03:49] <cx> t0ny-p40, it's probably your internet card
[03:49] <Eric> oh
[03:49] <Crescendo> Gah, stop saying my naaaame.
[03:49] <Eric> it have no internet thats why its at 0% lol
[03:49] <tiger_it> ompaul: it will be consider. Thanxs
[03:49] <t0ny-p40> worked on 6.06
[03:49] <[ANF] MasterNinja> other people got it to work
[03:49] <Crescendo> -= Smacks Eric for naming his nick his name. =-
[03:49] <dabaR> [ANF] MasterNinja: you tried everything, so you just wanted to let us know about your non-successful attempt?
[03:49] <Crescendo> Yarrrr.
[03:49] <Eric> but it just said cant resolve
[03:49] <godmachine81> looks like your sources are being lagged out
[03:49] <pirateninja> I reparitioned my harddrive off livecd, installed linux, then installed XP. How do I put on grub loader so I can boot into ubuntu aswell?
[03:49] <godmachine81> Eric:: your using sources that everyone gets as a default
[03:49] <godmachine81> so its going to have some issues
[03:49] <[ANF] MasterNinja> i was wondering if you know a program to get wificards to work
[03:49] <Eric> is there any way to make this program install then?
[03:50] <grndslm> pirateninja...you must install xp first, then linux
[03:50] <Eric> like a way around that error
[03:50] <godmachine81> Eric:: yes you can replace your sources.list
[03:50] <ompaul> !offtopic > Crescendo
[03:50] <redguy> hhowdy, I have a dual screen setup. No xinerama, no twinview( plain x multiple screen setup ). I want to have control ofg what is run on a specific screen
[03:50] <godmachine81> hang on
[03:50] <dabaR> [ANF] MasterNinja: but you tried everything already...
[03:50] <wickedpuppy> pirateninja, always install windows before linux ...
[03:50] <Eric> alright
[03:50] <rixth> Is there a program that I can point an MP3 and it will fix the length header? I have files that are being reported as 9 minutes, when they are only 4.
[03:50] <pirateninja> grndslm, so is it impossibile?
[03:50] <Crescendo> Thanks, ompaul.
[03:50] <ompaul> yw
[03:50] <pirateninja> There has to be a way
[03:50] <grndslm> pirateninja, windows does not play well with others, so linux has to be installed last in order to correct their arrogant and ignorant mistakes
[03:50] <redguy> right noe I have different (?) KDE sessions on both screen
[03:50] <redguy> s
[03:50] <Remy`> When I try to open the file in nano, it's just bringing up a blank document, when I'm typing the file case sensitive, but when I open it from it's folder, it works fine.
[03:51] <Remy`> I'm really new at this, sorry. :\
[03:51] <SlackRat> Remy, check that there are no typos in your sudo nano command
[03:51] <godmachine81> Eric:: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28403/plain/
[03:51] <SlackRat> no problem, Remy
[03:51] <Remy`> sudo nano /ect/X11/xorg.conf
[03:51] <godmachine81> save that as a file in your /tmp
[03:51] <Eric> and how do i get to that file?
[03:51] <SlackRat> etc. NOT ect
[03:51] <godmachine81> Eric:: name it /tmp/sources.list
[03:51] <pirateninja> So all is lost?  I have to reinstall all this stuff all over again?
[03:51] <Remy`> oh, sorry.
[03:51] <SlackRat> heh
[03:52] <SlackRat> i do it all the time
[03:52] <wickedpuppy> Remy`, use tab
[03:52] <godmachine81> Eric:: save the page as in your browser
[03:52] <ompaul> !grub
[03:52] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:52] <Remy`> I'll try now
[03:52] <pirateninja> There are no other multiboot loaders or anything I can use to get into ubuntu other than grub
[03:52] <SlackRat> theres other boot managers out there
[03:52] <dougsko> Remy`: yeah, if you type part of the word out, tab will complete it, and if theres more than one choice, hit tab again and itll show you all the choices
[03:52] <wickedpuppy> pirateninja, there is partition magic
[03:52] <Remy`> alright
[03:52] <SlackRat> i think smart boot is OS independant
[03:53] <grndslm> pirateninja....if you install Windows, it will format your hard drive....there's no way of getting around this, no...unless of course you install it first and then ubuntu last
[03:53] <pirateninja> I partitioned it, it only formatted the partition I left for it
[03:53] <pirateninja> I still see my ubuntu and swap partitions in drive manager
[03:53] <gypo> Help with vsftpd in private
[03:53] <redguy> pirateninja: there's alway lilo...
[03:54] <Eric> machine how do i find the file
[03:54] <godmachine81> Eric:: where did you save it to?
[03:54] <Eric> i had to save it to my flash drive on windows
[03:54] <Eric> and move it over
[03:54] <grndslm> pirateninja...my bad, i didn't think you partitioned first...
[03:54] <Eric> so its a .txt file
[03:54] <redguy> pirateninja: lilo/grub is just a bootloader
[03:54] <JoeyDay> Can someone help me find my grub.conf file in Ubuntu 6.10 ?

[04:12] <BetaCookies> Why is ubuntu so much slower than windows when it is looking up a hostname? Please can someone help me? I feel like I am on dialup because it literally takes 10 seconds or more just to look up the hostname. Once that is done, it loads very quickly.

[04:22] <Azih> Hey guys I'm brand new to Ubuntu (Dapper Drake) and Linux in general and I'm having a weird problem. I just installed Ubuntu on my Dell laptop and on startup it doesn't recognize my network.
[04:22] <JoeyDay> That's my /boot/grub/menu.lst file.
[04:22] <TxTERMiNAOR> eternale1 : it boots and shows a message that xserver cannot be started or so
[04:22] <wickedpuppy> Battousai, then cd is not booted .... pls re check the bios again ? then also have you tried any other live cd ?
[04:23] <Azih> it comes in randomly almost before that I can't even ping anything
[04:23] <tiger__> logix: is an example (I;ve that configuration in my /etc/fstab)
[04:23] <Azih> when I ping something it says 'Network is unreachable'
[04:23] <tiger__> logix:  umask  !!!!
[04:23] <Azih> even though all the correct settings show up in the Network Settings window
[04:23] <eternale1> i've ran into an issue while upgrading to edgy. The system begins to boot up, but never gets to the login screen , it becomes frozen on the cross hair mouse right before xwindow loads up, anyone seen this on upgrading?
[04:23] <tiger__> logix:  umask =000 means read,write, and execution :)
[04:24] <Battousai> wickedpuppy, well since my connection is 56k i had to start and stop a lot and sadly i dont have another live cd other then the one i have
[04:24] <Azih> I'm connecting just fine through the XP Home partition so the cable and router and ISP are fine
[04:24] <TxTERMiNAOR> eternale1 : I get a screen with much characters here and there
[04:24] <wickedpuppy> Battousai, try this , do you have windows cd ? does it boot into installation mode or does it go into windows as usual ?
[04:24] <skel> eternale1: have you checked the xorg logs in /var/log ?
[04:24] <TxTERMiNAOR> any help to get xServer running will be appreciated
[04:24] <Azih> and it's not like it doessn't work on Ubuntu, it's just really flaky in starting.
[04:24] <Azih> once it starts it goes fine.

[04:30] <wickedpuppy> TxTERMiNAOR, have you done sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[04:30] <skel> eternale1: grep -i EE ?
[04:30] <TxTERMiNAOR> no
[04:30] <wickedpuppy> Battousai, then the cd is screwed .... thats all i can think of
[04:30] <Zoohouse> skel I found the shreader in KGPG :) Thanks for the help though

[04:31] <Logix> hey tiger__ , im back, and it didnt work...
[04:31] <Battousai> wickedpuppy, that should be the answer since i have tryed everything thx for all ur help, sorry to have bothered you
[04:31] <chuckles> why is us.archive.ubuntu.com so slow right now?
[04:31] <nikosapi> Is there another log (more detailed) for dpkg than in /var/log ?
[04:31] <tiger__> Logix: did u reboot ?
[04:31] <skel> eternale1: ok so its not X then.. anything in /var/log/messages .. whats the symptom again?
[04:31] <Logix> tiger__, yes i did
[04:31] <godmachine81> chuckles:: because its the default repos.. and people dont know how to change them
[04:31] <wickedpuppy> Battousai, no prob ... and pls upgrade your line :P
[04:31] <tiger__> Logix:  it should work!!!
[04:32] <chuckles> any way around them?
[04:32] <AgentCy> petrik, you have to set your apache server to serv files from that directory
[04:32] <TxTERMiNAOR> wickedpuppy : I tried that. But, it says the package is broken
[04:32] <Logix> tiger__, it always worked perfectly, until that one time amarok crashed, and since i've been seeing FSCK finding errors on the drive every time i reboot...
[04:32] <AgentCy> petrik, try checking with #apache
[04:32] <dudawifi> godmachine81: ok, when you like said me than I need to do
[04:32] <godmachine81> dudawifi:: get this file
[04:32] <eternale1> skel: after upgrade, reboot system, stuck on the mouse with the crosshairs.. frozen after that, can't even move the mouse... ill check /var/log/messages now

[04:32] <tiger__> Logix:  Have U  make a mount point (mkdir /media/hd xx) ??
[04:32] <wickedpuppy> TxTERMiNAOR, kindly do apt-get update ?
[04:32] <TxTERMiNAOR> ok wickedpuppy will try that
[04:32] <petrik> AgentCy, What would roughly be the entry I'm looking for and what file?
[04:32] <Logix> tiger__,  and then, i rebooted into my windows and fixed the drive and it worked.. but now my windows is unusable so i must find a solution within linux....
[04:33] <skel> eternale1: is it the generic X gray screen with the x cursor?
[04:33] <dudawifi> godmachine81: I have yet, now?
[04:33] <Logix> tiger__, yes i did... its mounted. and i can access the files, just not write on the drive.
[04:33] <godmachine81> download that
[04:33] <petrik> AgentCy, I've already chnage docroot and directory
[04:33] <AgentCy> petrik, youre looking for httpd.conf, and an entry for the server root perhaps
[04:33] <godmachine81> i dont understand your english very well
[04:33] <AgentCy> ok
[04:33] <skel> eternale1: could be a problem with your window manager
[04:33] <tiger__> Logix:  boot using a floppy disk with NDD (norton Disk Doctor)
[04:33] <eternale1> ya the generic xcursor
[04:33] <AgentCy> petrik, also make sure that the media/www/whatever directory is readable by the webserver
[04:33] <dudawifi> godmachine81: I have in my pc now, what i need to do?
[04:34] <Logix> tiger__,  good idea... didnt think about it... any idea where will be the easiest/fastest place to get this?
[04:34] <eternale1> not gray screen but black
[04:34] <mocker> Does anyone know a good mirror for packages.freecontrib.org?
[04:34] <Logix> tiger__, shit... no floppies...
[04:34] <petrik> AgentCy, How to check/do that?
[04:34] <godmachine81> dudawifi:: do you know where you saved it to?
[04:34] <skel> eternale1: hmm thats weird
[04:34] <TxTERMiNAOR> wickedpuppy : It is not updating. Fetched 6 KB only
[04:34] <godmachine81> probably your Desktop
[04:34] <tiger__> Logix:  buy one!
[04:34] <godmachine81> dudawifi:: try this
[04:34] <Logix> tiger__, no drive
[04:34] <dudawifi> yes
[04:34] <eternale1> skel: yes very...
[04:34] <dudawifi> in desktop
[04:35] <wickedpuppy> TxTERMiNAOR, then only thing i can think is upgrade was borked
[04:35] <tiger__> Logix:  ok.... from live CD ... in Linux ?
[04:35] <Logix> tiger__,  there MUST be another solution!
[04:35] <godmachine81> sudo dpkg -i ~/bcm43xx-firmware_1.3-1ubuntu1_all.deb
[04:35] <Logix> tiger__,  but from a live cd- what can i do?
[04:35] <TxTERMiNAOR> wickedpuppy : so what can I do to solve it?

[04:38] <godmachine81> SlackRat:: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg you mean?
[04:38] <godmachine81> SlackRat:: if your in X you shouldnt have to do that
[04:39] <TxTERMiNAOR> wickedpuppy : how to download xorg.deb. I know that a new install is better, but I wanted to do some important work now. :(
[04:39] <godmachine81> SlackRat:: i think whoever needs to fix X just needs to do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:39] <TxTERMiNAOR> wickedpuppy : thanks for the helping hand :)

[04:39] <SlackRat> or xorgconfig
[04:39] <BetaCookies> Why is ubuntu so much slower than windows when it is looking up a hostname? Please can someone help me? I feel like I am on dialup because it literally takes 10 seconds or more just to look up the hostname. Once that is done, it loads very quickly.
[04:39] <SlackRat> prolly yeah
[04:40] <SlackRat> in ##slackware, right?
[04:40] <Bacon5o> Well, I cant uninstall ubuntu without reinstalling windows, thanks ubuntu....

[04:40] <BetaCookies> wastrel well it happened on every version i've used, from hoary to edgy
[04:40] <tonyyarusso> Anyone that's up for trying to confirm a bug, try the following and let me know what happens (NOT if you have anything critical running): On a virtual terminal (I used tty2), do 'watch acpi -V', then try to switch back to Gnome with Alt-F7.
[04:40] <godmachine81> its there and it works?  what does?

[04:40] <sanmarcos> anybody using dual displays?
[04:41] <Bacon5o> wastral when I remove ubuntu via partition deletion, I get a GRUB error, which is the bootloader

[04:41] <SlackRat> theres other debian pkgs for x to configure, but i havnt used them as much.....
[04:41] <wickedpuppy> TxTERMiNAOR, to download use wget .. and for the important things you got to do , pls do in another computer
[04:41] <AgentCy> !java > screechingcat
[04:41] <wastrel> Bacon5o:  you need to get windows back in the bootloader.?
[04:41] <variant> anyone know how to disable the ubuntu/gnome splash screen?
[04:42] <SlackRat> old school isnt something like adept versus dist-upgrade, theyre both tools
[04:42] <wastrel> variant:  if you find out, let me know
[04:42] <variant> not the bootsplash, but the one you get after logging in
[04:42] <SlackRat> with good and bad points
[04:42] <variant> wastrel: will do :)
[04:42] <adele> can somebody help me with installing the latest ATI driver?
[04:42] <dfgsdgf> Is anyone else having problems installing ATI driver in edgy?
[04:42] <trippyD> anyone know the boot parameter to get edgy liveCD to use VESA?
[04:42] <wastrel> variant:  oh the gnome login screen?

[04:42] <godmachine81> SlackRat:: yea but still slack is stuck in the 90s ;)
[04:42] <TxTERMiNAOR> ok wickedpuppy : but what is the url I should use for wget to download xorg.deb (sorry for the trouble caused)
[04:42] <dudawifi> godmachine81: you read me?
[04:42] <skel> adele: is there a reason you don't want to use the ones in restricted-modules?
[04:42] <godmachine81> dudawifi:: what?
[04:42] <variant> wastrel: not gdm, but the splash you get after logging in
[04:42] <variant> wastrel: while the desktop loads
[04:42] <SlackRat> only if you dont use it
[04:42] <wastrel> oh.   no idea
[04:42] <screechingcat> AgentCy: I installed sunjava5-jre and sunjava5-plugin form the repos
[04:42] <wickedpuppy> TxTERMiNAOR, you got to use lynx or links to search the exact url
[04:42] <adele> skel: what are the ones in restribted-modyles?
[04:43] <SlackRat> its more up to date than my ubuntu box
[04:43] <Spottyfox> dfgsdgf : This worked for me. http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide
[04:43] <eternale1> skel: alright did that. removed the .gnome* .gconf* and rebooted gdm... takes me right to the issue spot. with the generic cursor and frozen after that.  One thing it does it like refresh the screen a few times but then becomes frozen after it refreshes itsself like3 times
[04:43] <TxTERMiNAOR> ok wickedpuppy . I will give it a try
[04:43] <SlackRat> and much much faster
[04:43] <adele> skel: I did what they told me on the ubuntu page but I dont think thats the very latest driver
[04:43] <eternale1> skel: looks to be something with gdm apparently
[04:43] <henke> edgy clean install, I have very long boot, 100+ seconds. Where does my boot go wrong? http://www.leotec.se/edgy/edgy-20061029-5.png
[04:43] <skel> eternale1: and still no errors in the X log :( ?
[04:43] <hackel_> Since upgrading to edgy, using Xv at all crashes my X server (hard) to the point where I can't even kill it or get back to a console.  My ctrl-alt-del is still able to get through to reboot the screen, but no video output.  I've got a Radeon XPRESS 200M.  Anyone heard of this issue or know a fix?
[04:43] <jldugger> question: how did i lock myself out of System->Administration tools?
[04:43] <eternale1> skel: let me check again
[04:43] <dudawifi> godmachine81: read the private message, i have pasted you that console said to me
[04:43] <variant> henke: you said it was 70 seconds earlyer
[04:43] <jldugger> it should be using gksudo to ask permission, instead i just get permission denied
[04:43] <henke> nope, 104 sec
[04:44] <BetaCookies> Spottyfox I'm not talking about ATi drivers, I got  those installed. I'm talking about >10 second hostname lookup in forefox and other web browsers

[04:49] <HaroldJohnson> Hi everyone!  Having trouble sftp'ing my backup back to my Ubuntu partition.  Any other tools I can do this with?  (Already tried FTP.)
[04:49] <AgentCy> wow :)

[04:51] <eternale1> skel: is there a way to get to the regular login screen via a reboot instead of the forced root login screen via recovery mode?  I've only been able to get to the root login
[04:51] <Bacon5o_> ok

[04:52] <HaroldJohnson> Anyone: How do I find out my IP address?
[04:52] <Bacon5o_> so I cant get rid of GRUB
[04:52] <Bacon5o_> how queer is that
[04:52] <harrisony1> HaroldJohnson, yep
[04:52] <eternale1> skel: it was just the recovery mode from GRUB, which boots i guess a safe version of the kernel
[04:52] <AgentCy> HaroldJonhson, go to www.whatismyip.com :)
[04:52] <skel> eternale1: I just let whatever component fail then ctrl-alt-F2 etc

[04:54] <harrisony1> HaroldJohnson, wha?
[04:54] <jldugger> Bacon2, what exactly is the problem?
[04:54] <Bacon5o_> dugger
[04:54] <dbmonk74> agentcy: I'm having problems with that - i can't even see the full screen when I'm running the command "suso dpkg-....
[04:54] <jldugger> bacon
[04:54] <Bacon5o_> when I remove ubuntu, I get a GRUB error
[04:54] <Bacon5o_> cause GRUB cant find the stupid kernel
[04:54] <HaroldJohnson> harrisony1: I'm just trying to transfer a file between two computers on the same network, but I don't know my Ubuntu computer's IP/network address.
[04:54] <AgentCy> dbmonk74, try hitting the auto button on your monitor
[04:54] <killown> linux no detect ip of pc in network with windows why?
[04:54] <jldugger> Bacon2, what would you like to have happen instead?
[04:54] <harrisony1> HaroldJohnson, http://www.whatsmyip.org/
[04:55] <harrisony1> :D
[04:55] <dbmonk74> agentcy: if it's that easy, i am going to turn in my geek card
[04:55] <AkumAPRIME> GREAT!!! I cant believe this is so bad. I just changed my resolution from 1280x800 to 1024x760 just to SEE what would happen. When I changed back, it Totally fragged my dual monitor setup
[04:55] <dbmonk74> bad geek!
[04:55] <Alpha3> haroldjohnson - ifconfig eth0
[04:55] <Bacon5o_> dugger remove GRUB altogether including ubuntu and have windows start normally?
[04:55] <HaroldJohnson> Alpha3: Thank you!
[04:55] <killown> help -me
[04:55] <dbmonk74> jldugger: I'm just checking into the native resolution
[04:55] <skel> Bacon5o_: fdisk /mbr with a livecd
[04:55] <AgentCy> dbmonk74, its hardly ever that easy :-p
[04:55] <jldugger> Bacon2, ok. you lost your windows cd?
[04:55] <jackyyll> hi, how do i use the multiverse sources?
[04:56] <Alpha3> jackyyll - edit /etc/apt/sources.lst
[04:56] <Bacon5o_> dugger I do not have my LIVE CD
[04:56] <harrisony1> jackyyll, add multiverse in ya sources.list
[04:56] <orkid__> are jigdo files for the DVDs available? (the finals, not the dailies)
[04:56] <Bacon5o_> err
[04:56] <Alpha3> jackyyll - remove the # from urls
[04:56] <Bacon5o_> windows CD
[04:56] <harrisony1> add it to the end that is
[04:56] <SlackRat> jackyyll:  very carefully :P
[04:56] <jackyyll> ooh
[04:56] <ckywalker> anyone setup snort ids on ubuntu
[04:56] <Alpha3> jackyyll - then run apt-get update
[04:56] <godmachine81> jackyyll:: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:56] <jldugger> well, the good news is that windows stores a backup copy in the first block of its partition
[04:56] <jldugger> the bad news is its a risky move
[04:56] <Bacon5o_> dugger, i dont like risk...
[04:57] <dbmonk74> jldugger: 1366 x 768
[04:57] <godmachine81> jackyyll:: in the lines that say edgy main   add multiverse and universe after main
[04:57] <dougb> bacon, you are back i see
[04:57] <jldugger> Bacon2, well, no risk wasnt an option any more the day you lost your windows cd :P
[04:57] <AgentCy> godmachine81, could you help me out with wireless too if you have the time? :)
[04:57] <Andruk> how do i start windowmaker?
[04:57] <godmachine81> jackyyll:: if your a complete n00b there is a way to enable them in synaptic afaik
[04:57] <skel> jldugger: can't he just wax the mbr?
[04:57] <jackyyll> thank you :)
[04:57] <jldugger> skel, what happens then?
[04:57] <godmachine81> been a couple years since i even loaded synaptic
[04:57] <godmachine81> heh
[04:57] <harrisony1> jackyyll, so one of mine is deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse
[04:57] <HaroldJohnson> What do I use to format a floppy disk so that I may store my Ubuntu backup on it?
[04:57] <jldugger> system boots from drive, sees no mbr, moves on to...?
[04:57] <Bacon5o_> I just want the original windows bootloader
[04:58] <HaroldJohnson> !format
[04:58] <skel> jldugger: lol something.. I've done it in the past to fix dual boot setups
[04:58] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[04:58] <asubedi> I installed and added compiz-start to my Session. However, I don't get any window decoration. Where do I add gnome-window-decoration?
[04:58] <Bacon5o_> dugger, when I remove ubuntu, GRUB cannot see linux kernel
[04:58] <harrisony1> HaroldJohnson,  you want to format a floppie?
[04:58] <Bacon5o_> doesn't do anything
[04:58] <jldugger> Bacon2, i know
[04:58] <HaroldJohnson> harrisony1: Yes, exactly.
[04:58] <skel> jldugger: not sure what it does.. but I've used fdisk /mbr as long as windows was the first OS
[04:58] <harrisony1> err 1 sec
[04:58] <HaroldJohnson> harrisony1: Command line app
[04:58] <dougb> bacon, you don't have your XP CD anymore?
[04:58] <harrisony1> gfloppy in terminal
[04:58] <jldugger> Bacon2, is there no option to boot windows at all in grub?
[04:58] <Bacon5o_> skel, I'm out of my league (its been awhile) at where would fdisk be applicable?
[04:59] <skel> jldugger: I think it looks for boot.ini in the first partition off the first drive in the chain
[04:59] <HaroldJohnson> harrisony1: Hmm...thanks!
[04:59] <Bacon5o_> dugger, I am in windows now
[04:59] <Bacon5o_> yes I can get in windows, but only with GRUB
[04:59] <jldugger> skeith, your bios can do no such thing
[04:59] <harrisony1> np
[04:59] <dougb> its because the Windows MBR doesn't add it by default
[04:59] <jldugger> Bacon2, good news. make some restore disks
[04:59] <dougb> you can add Linux to it though, you just have to edit a text file
[04:59] <skel> Bacon5o_: was windows on the first partition or installed after ubuntu?
[04:59] <skel> Bacon5o_: there's fdisk on the livecd but I don't know if that version has the /mbr option
[05:00] <Bacon5o_> skel, windows was installed first, on the master HD
[05:00] <Bacon5o_> ubuntu is on a slave
[05:00] <skel> Bacon5o_: ok then that *should* work.. may want to google fdisk /mbr
[05:00] <jldugger> Bacon2, just make sure you have a live cd of something lying around
[05:00] <Bacon5o_> live cd of ubuntu?
[05:00] <jldugger> Bacon5o_, ideally
[05:01] <Bacon5o_> yeah I have it
[05:01] <Bacon5o_> let me go do fdisk
[05:01] <Bacon5o_> and get back to you
[05:01] <chris0229> DBO here?
[05:01] <chris0229> :))
[05:02] <jldugger> i should go complain to microsoft that i cant get rid of their bootloader when i want to delete windows and lost my ubuntu cd
[05:02] <jackyyll> hmm... how do i install the gstreamer0.8-lame and the gstreamer0.8-mad packages? ;s
[05:02] <chris0229> DBO you here?
[05:02] <chris0229> :))
[05:02] <chris0229> DBO!!!!
[05:02] <harrisony1> jackyyll, sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-lame gstreamer0.8-mad
[05:02] <DBO> chris0229, hey im kinda busy, what do you need?
[05:02] <jackyyll> ah crap.. forgot the install part :p
[05:02] <chris0229> DBO how did we install no-ip
[05:03] <chris0229> :)
[05:03] <wastrel> i own a meteorite
[05:03] <DBO> erm you downloaded the installer and ran it afaik
[05:03] <harrisony1> just makesure you have universe enabled in ya sources.list
[05:03] <chris0229> DBO i am on gentoo :P
[05:03] <DBO> chris0229, thats unfortunate
[05:03] <chris0229> More fun
[05:03] <chris0229> :)
[05:03] <jldugger> does anyone know how gnome knows which programs should be run as root from the menu?
[05:03] <chris0229> Sabayon is awesome!
[05:04] <chris0229> DBo installing Ssh :)
[05:04] <harrisony1> jldugger, is would be in /sbin i think
[05:04] <ianmacgregor> jldugger: Either the menu entry begins with "gksu" or the app itself must be run with admin privs.
[05:04] <jldugger> harrisony1, they're not though.
[05:05] <jldugger> ianmacgregor, check out the System->Administriation menu
[05:05] <chris0229> Thanks DBO
[05:05] <chris0229> :)
[05:05] <ianmacgregor> jldugger: Ok.. your point?
[05:05] <jldugger> the entries don't have gksu/gksudo
[05:05] <DBO> chris0229, http://www.no-ip.com/downloads.php?page=linux  <--- download and install that
[05:05] <jldugger> ianmacgregor, my point is that mine don't work =(
[05:05] <nathanael> So.. if I have 5.10 running, will it automagically upgrade to 6.10?
[05:06] <jldugger> it does on my laptop though
[05:06] <nathanael> 'Cause it hasn't
[05:06] <SlackRat> nathianel no
[05:06] <HaroldJohnson> Okay, I'm having the worst time trying to simply copy my Ubuntu backup archive from my Mac (OS X) back to my fresh Ubuntu installation.  Anyone know of some tools I can use?  I thought it'd be easy to simply use sftp, which I usually use to do something like this, but I'm not having any luck with it.
[05:06] <SlackRat> upgrade to 6.06 then 6.10
[05:06] <nathanael> too much of a version diff?
[05:06] <nathanael> ah ok
[05:06] <skel> HaroldJohnson: scp ?
[05:06] <nathanael> Can I do that over the wire? (5.10 to 6.06)
[05:06] <ianmacgregor> jldugger: then I am guessing that the app itself has code in it to "if [ $ID -ne 0 ] ; then echo "this app must be run as root".. ie, it checks to see if the user who launched it has admin privs.
[05:06] <chris0229> DBO yup :)
[05:06] <skel> HaroldJohnson: or rsync over ssh
[05:06] <jldugger> ianmacgregor, it doesnt
[05:07] <ianmacgregor> jldugger: Have you studied the source code?
[05:07] <orkid__> nathanael, probably yes

[05:07] <nathanael> now just to figure out how...
[05:07] <HaroldJohnson> skel: Know how I can get that running?   I just installed a very basic Ext USrobotice modem to my serial port.  Is there anything I have to do to get ubuntu to recognize it?
[05:08] <gypo> orkid what?
[05:08] <HaroldJohnson> skel: that enables it, too?
[05:08] <orkid__> gypo, (as super user), then /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
[05:08] <hackel_> HaroldJohnson:  you only need sshd running on one of the machines.

[05:15] <dwango> nathanael, Ubuntu comes with no EULA that dictates which hardware I can/cannot run it on. That is free.
[05:15] <killown> hey
[05:15] <killown> help-me
[05:15] <skel> eternale1: what messages do you get on the standard kernel?
[05:15] <jlmb> AgentCy: try this: lspci -vvv | grep 802.11
[05:15] <Bacon5o_> well ya know skel
[05:16] <nathanael> I installed OSX on my Dell - THAT was free
[05:16] <Bacon5o_> this is the deal
[05:16] <grndslm> hackel_, i was unaware that it was in the official edgy repos....i've been reviewing ubuntuguide.org for the first time in several months and it was listed under the edgy section
[05:16] <jlmb> AgentCy: If it returns tooo much info, pm me that info.
[05:16] <jldugger> nathanael, and almost certainly illegal :P
[05:16] <Bacon5o_> I really dont care for the 10Go that Im losing with ubuntu
[05:16] <eternale1> well as far as i can tell the kernel loads up just fine, its just becoming frozen at the generic cross hairs
[05:16] <nathanael> :p
[05:16] <Bacon5o_> I just want windows to be the default starter when it runs out of time :)
[05:16] <jldugger> Bacon5o_, well thats an easy fix
[05:16] <hackel_> grndslm:  Well, probably not in Ubuntu but universe.  Either way, it installed fine. :)
[05:16] <Alpha3> nano /boot/grub/grub.conf change default to 1
[05:17] <skel> haha there is no /boot anymore
[05:17] <Bacon5o_> no no alpha, I want WINDOWS to be the default bot
[05:17] <AgentCy> jlmb, nothin
[05:17] <Bacon5o_> I'll figure it out tomarrow
[05:17] <Bacon5o_> seya guys
[05:17] <gu014> hello, i just upgraded to edgy..when i try to log in with GNOME i get looped back to the log-in screen everytime. other sessions such as KDE load fine...only GNOME(my default) gives me a loop back to the sign in screen.would anyone be able to offer any suggestions?
[05:17] <skel> how is he supposed to change the config? /root /boot are gone
[05:17] <nathanael> Either way - I've used all 3 major OS platforms extensively, and I have to say OSX takes the cake.
[05:17] <skel> Bacon5o_: night
[05:17] <grndslm> hackel_, interesting... that makes it even better IMO....
[05:17] <Bacon5o_> skel, an option in the LIVE CD

[05:18] <skel> Bacon5o_: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=261508
[05:18] <hackel_> gu014:  Probably need to rename your .gnome and .gconf directories and try again.
[05:18] <Alpha3> bacon, then edit your grub.conf .. lol
[05:18] <killown>  linux doesn't detect the ip of the network card of the pc with windows because this happens?
[05:18] <Bacon5o_> alpha
[05:18] <eternale1> skel: i can't remember the correct config file to say load up this x session instead of gnome, like point it to fluxbox instead or etc
[05:18] <Bacon5o_> ...I dont know @#$% about linux
[05:18] <skel> Alpha3: he removed ubuntu from the drive, but grub is still in place on the mbr
[05:18] <jldugger> Bacon5o_, how did you even "delete" ubuntu?
[05:18] <jlmb> AgentCy: ok try this. take the pccard out. type dmesg and check the ouput. Then reinsert the pccard and recheck the output. Give me the *new* info.
[05:18] <Alpha3> bacon - fdisk /mbr && /part
[05:19] <Alpha3> boot to 98 bootdisk & fdisk /mbr

[05:19] <gu014> hackel_: how might i go about doing that?
[05:19] <Frem> Noooo! Fatal upgrade error!
[05:19] <Bacon5o_> dugger I deleted ubuntu by deleting the partition :D
[05:19] <Bacon5o_> probably the worst thing an idiot could do
[05:19] <jldugger> Bacon5o_, with what?
[05:19] <Bacon5o_> partition manager
[05:19] <dwango> killown, your network card isn't getting an IP address?
[05:19] <Alpha3> boot to xp cd, recovery mode, fdisk /mbr
[05:19] <gu014> hackel_: at ! i see .gnome and .gnome2

[05:19] <Bacon5o_> I dont have a floppy drive

[05:20] <Alpha3> bacon, their free .. go d/l one
[05:20] <Bacon5o_> I'm on windows right now
[05:20] <Alpha3> this is the internet

[05:20] <dwango> killown: do you have a router?
[05:20] <Jaws> The flash...
[05:20] <skel> eternale1: hmm
[05:21] <jlmb> AgentCy: ummm ok. no good info provided. Which pccard model is it?
[05:21] <skel> eternale1: so if you login right as root in the recovery.. can you just do startx or gnome-session?
[05:21] <AgentCy> it is a gateway wbm-120
[05:21] <Bacon5o_> alpha
[05:21] <dwango> Jaws: appears to work here.
[05:21] <Bacon5o_> to get a winxp CD?
[05:21] <dwango> Jaws: did you install Flash 9?
[05:21] <hackel_> gu014:  Oh yes, sorry I forgot the 2!
[05:21] <jlmb> AgentCy: ok,  give me a second
[05:21] <AgentCy> apparently it uses prism2, but i have not verified that
[05:21] <Bacon5o_> i wouldn't even know where to get the damn ISO
[05:21] <Jaws> Im not sure
[05:21] <killown> dwango yes
[05:21] <eternale1> skel: when i attempt startx it just takes me to the same spot where the problem is
[05:21] <gu014> hackel_: i am not sure what i need to do to rename them?
[05:21] <eternale1> with the frozen generic mouse
[05:21] <dwango> Jaws: you'd remember if you did
[05:22] <dwango> Jaws: it's a manual process
[05:22] <Alpha3> bacon - d/l & install recovery console .. its free from m$'s site. it will add an entry to your ntloader boot to recovery console. then fdisk /mbr then fixboot
[05:22] <Jaws> dwango: I used Synaptic
[05:22] <Jaws> dwango: Well I guess not then...

[05:23] <dwango> killown: what interfaces (besides lo) does "ifconfig" show?
[05:23] <skel> eternale1: it would seem to be X or gnome

[05:23] <Jaws> dwango: Flash Movie player Version 0.4.12

[05:24] <dwango> Jaws: uh
[05:24] <dwango> heh
[05:24] <AgentCy> meh havent had much luck with linux-wlan :-/
[05:24] <exeakiel> What is kdesu?
[05:24] <jldugger> huh. apparently fdisk isnt in winXP
[05:24] <dwango> Jaws: that's probably Gnash?
[05:24] <exeakiel> Some sort of pakage?
[05:24] <dwango> Jaws: the GNU project
[05:24] <AgentCy> !linux-wlan
[05:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linux-wlan - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:24] <macd> exeakiel, su for kde.
[05:24] <jlmb> AgentCy: already tried linux-wlan?
[05:24] <jldugger> exeakiel, its a program that lets you run other programs as administrator / root

[05:25] <gu014> cd acd ~
[05:25] <exeakiel> Also, I'm a pirate.
[05:25] <Jaws> dwango: It says GPLFlash
[05:25] <skel> eternale1: what did you do to upgrade?  changed /etc/apt/sources.list to edgy, then apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[05:25] <jlmb> AgentCy: Try installing linux-wlan-ng
[05:25] <macd> jldugger, thats a possibility, or if your on a OEM installed winxp it wont have it.
[05:25] <dwango> Jaws: uninstall that package
[05:25] <Jaws> dwango: ok
[05:25] <jldugger> macd, ah. tabletPC
[05:25] <jlmb> AgentCy: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/admin/linux-wlan-ng <--we are installing this.
[05:25] <eternale1> skel: i did gksu "update-manager -c"
[05:26] <eternale1> skel: something along those lines
[05:26] <xipietotec> is it just me, or is anyone else finding usplash in edgy to be buggy?
[05:26] <eternale1> i found it off a post on ubuntu forums
[05:26] <skel> eternale1: thats it? to upgrade to edgy ?
[05:26] <eternale1> it upgrade/installed around 1200 pacakges
[05:26] <AgentCy> jlmb i saw that,.. i just got this error after installing.... "PCMCIA bridge driver already present in kernel"
[05:26] <dwango> Jaws: download Flash 9 from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer9.html
[05:26] <PWill> xipietotec: Only bug I found is that it doesn't support 16:10
[05:26] <eternale1> skel: using the upgrade to ubuntu 6.1 update manager
[05:26] <dwango> (for Linux)
[05:26] <macd> jldugger, you can download a bootable cd or usb image with fdisk though. ;)
[05:27] <dwango> Jaws: installing is easy.  Just copy 'libflashplayer.so' to ~/.mozilla/plugins
[05:27] <jldugger> mac, im not worried. just thought it was wierd that it wasnt there
[05:27] <dwango> and restart firefox
[05:27] <Bacon5o_> ok skel
[05:27] <Bacon5o_> if you're still here
[05:27] <skel> eternale1: never used that, and I don't know that I trust it =/
[05:27] <Bacon5o_> where do I obtain the recovery console?
[05:27] <skel> Bacon5o_: yah
[05:27] <Jaws> dwango: Just that one file?
[05:27] <Bacon5o_> to do the fdisk
[05:27] <dwango> Jaws: yes
[05:27] <eternale1> skel: eek :\
[05:27] <Jaws> dwango: Alright sweet thanks alot man
[05:28] <jlmb> AgentCy: dpkg -l | grep linux-wlan
[05:28] <skel> Bacon5o_: you could try booting off a cd from the link I posted, you need a dos version of fdisk
[05:28] <dwango> Jaws: there is a readme.txt in the download that says how to install it as well

[05:29] <Frem> I've got limited bandwith and a CDROM of edgy. The CD is giving me errors, and upgrading over the network wants either 1.2 GIGABYTES for everything, or 350MB for the base system. I'd really like to use the CD. :-(

[05:30] <eternale1> but then again i have no idea what libggi2 is used for
[05:31] <skel> eternale1: hmm yeah double check to make sure you don't have any other release lines in your sources.list
[05:31] <jlmb> AgentCy: take the pccard out
[05:31] <skel> eternale1: otherwise, I personally would just move forward
[05:31] <skel> eternale1: do you have all your personal stuff on a seperate partition?

[05:36] <plato> just a general question here: what's the policy on integration of newer releases of software making their way into the repositories.  it seems like the repositories are pretty static until it comes time for a new release, and all the updates are piled into a repository for said release.
[05:36] <skel> eternale1: hmm you could go to /etc/rc3.d and unlink S13gdm

[05:37] <tritium> Abst: use the lsb_release -a command.  EVery distro should have it.

[05:40] <Abst> apt-get --version
[05:40] <dwango> Jaws: are you sure you completely closed firefox?
[05:40] <plato> tritium: case in point would be gaim.  edgy was shipped with 2.0beta3.  wouldn't the final release, or even beta 4 (which has since been released) be naturally considered in some respects a security fix?

[05:41] <mike_> anyone with some knowledge in the enlightenment display system please help me, would be appreciated :)
[05:41] <dwango> Jaws: not necessarily..
[05:41] <jldugger> or it could be somethnig that isnt debian
[05:41] <skel> Abst: ah ok.. so some version of debian then I'd guess, are you sure there's not /etc/debian_version ?
[05:41] <dwango> Jaws: try "ps aux | grep firefox"
[05:41] <Abst> Yeah Im sure
[05:41] <dwango> to see if its still running
[05:41] <AgentCy> jlmb: any other ideas? :-/
[05:41] <Abst> Not found
[05:41] <Jaws> dwango: k 1 min
[05:41] <hoov> does anyone have a wifi card suggestion that "just works" with wpa support.  I couldn't get my current card to work with dapper, after trying many things, and after reading some threads at ubuntuforums thought it might be an issue that would be resolved in edgy.  so I've given up.  any hardware suggestions?
[05:42] <AlReece45> xipietotec: thanks it worked
[05:42] <plato> tritium: then are there any other repositories one should look to for newer releases, or is building from source the best option?
[05:42] <tritium> plato: aside from edgy-backports, no
[05:42] <jldugger> Abst, look at sources.list
[05:42] <jldugger> where do they point?
[05:43] <skel> hoov: there's many different authentication schemes for wpa.. to ask for a config wizard for something that "just works" is like asking for a common procedure to fix all brain tumors
[05:43] <Abst> Its sarge
[05:43] <xipietotec> AlReece45: cool, although you may still show kubuntu's colors on the text if you're running in verbose
[05:43] <xipietotec> like it does on mine
[05:43] <plato> tritium: okay, thanks.  you've been most helpful.  i've been searching the forums for days to find out the answer to that question.
[05:43] <jlmb> AgentCy: I'm checking docs for your card. Try rebooting and then reinserting the card
[05:43] <AgentCy> jlmb, i found this tutorial for my card on fedora, but now ubuntu uses pcmcia-utils instead
[05:43] <tritium> plato: :)
[05:43] <skel> hoov: is this psk with tkip? are you using radius? etc etc
[05:43] <jlmb> AgentCy: Give me the url
[05:43] <AgentCy> jlmb: http://nakedape.cc/wiki/FedoraNotes
[05:44] <skel> hoov: its not so much the card as it is your setup
[05:44] <Jaws> dwango: Ok, I put what you said into the terminal, made sure that the process was ended, and its still not working...
