[03:16] <Hollowman> how can i get the wheel on my mouse to work?
[03:16] <Hollowman> i think it got disabled somehow
[03:16] <_jason> cello123, didn't they have the source for you to download and build?  you are probably better off doing that
[03:16] <joseph> how do I install quicktime support?
[03:16] <bshumate> Felix15: you need the proper directives in your ~/.vimrc file.  see www.dotfiles.com for some good example .vimrc files with syntax colors enabled
[03:16] <jhenn> whats a good nes emulator for ubuntu (ppc)?
[03:16] <_jason> ubotu, tell joseph about w32codecs
[03:17] <joseph> _jason: I have w32codecs installed.  but this is not working check it out http://www.apple.com/intel/ads/
[03:17] <cello123> _jason: being that it is a script, there was nothing to compile
[03:17] <cello123> _jason: http://gprename.sourceforge.net/

[03:18] <_jason> cello123, the install script isn't too long, I'm gonna read it.  Try reading it as well, maybe we can figure out what went wrong.  Did you say it crashed when you typed ./install (can't remember)
[03:18] <joseph> _jason:  I have w32codecs installed but this is not working http://images.apple.com/movies/us/apple/intel/intel20060110_h.640.mov

[03:18] <supergee> Anyone know how to disable dmix? I tried creating a file as .asoundrc to do it, but it didn't work. :( wengophone won't work and keeps saying my soundcard is busy
[03:18] <joseph> _jason:  I'm using epiphany with mplayer plug-in
[03:19] <crimsun> supergee: just specify the [virtual] device that's not dmix, e.g., plughw:0,0
[03:19] <cello123> _jason: it installed, but then gnome took a nosedive. gnome panels died and the icons reverted to the basic gnome ones
[03:19] <shevegen> Hi. I am trying to install Dapper Drake on a notebook, the default display does not work, I think I need something like vesafb or so. Can I pass an option somehow to enable this?
[03:19] <supergee> crimsun, hm, yeah, I tried it, it gives a list of sound devices, but each one says the device is busy for some reason :(
[03:19] <Delvien> Anyone know any hacks/tricks to extend battery life... im only getting 2 hours on linux and 4 on windows  :( ??
[03:19] <crimsun> supergee: lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*
[03:19] <supergee> crimsun, and they aren't busy because xmms works fine
[03:19] <supergee> ok
[03:19] <crimsun> supergee: pastebin
[03:20] <supergee> mixer_app 8760 torque   36u   CHR  116,0      6924 /dev/snd/controlC0
[03:20] <pestilence> joseph: won't play for me either. must be a new quicktime decoder?
[03:20] <_jason> joseph, not playing for me either, about to say the same thing as pestilence
[03:20] <supergee> mixer_app?
[03:20] <supergee> hm
[03:20] <crimsun> supergee: is xmms configured to use alsa, esd, or oss?
[03:20] <supergee> crimsun, alsa
[03:21] <crimsun> supergee: mixer_app is the Volume Control applet in GNOME
[03:21] <joseph> _jason: it's the Apple advertisement showing MacOS on Intel
[03:21] <supergee> aha, ok
[03:21] <joseph> how do I enable flash and java on my browser?
[03:21] <crimsun> supergee: and which device is the alsa output plugin configured to use?
[03:21] <nbound> crimsun, you can change i in options
[03:21] <crimsun> nbound: I'm aware of that.
[03:21] <pestilence> !java
[03:21] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[03:21] <nbound> so if it doesnt work mess with it until it does? ;)
[03:21] <pestilence> !flash
[03:21] <ubotu> well, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here have been replaced by !FreeFormats
[03:22] <supergee> crimsun, it looks like 0,0
[03:22] <pestilence> !javadebs
[03:22] <crimsun> supergee: not "default"?
[03:22] <supergee> crimsun, er, it is default, but I thought that was the same
[03:22] <shevegen> let me ask in another way :) Does anyone know a site with boot options to ubuntu? listings, like quiet, or rw and so on
[03:22] <crimsun> nbound: -ECONTEXT
[03:22] <Hollowman> how can i get the wheel on my mouse to work?
[03:22] <Hollowman> i think it got disabled somehow
[03:22] <crimsun> supergee: "default" != hw:0,0 in Breezy
[03:22] <supergee> crimsun, What is default in Breezy?
[03:22] <crimsun> supergee: default is dmix
[03:23] <supergee> ahh
[03:23] <supergee> ok
[03:23] <theneonshadow>  what was the name of that program that allows windows programs on linux?
[03:23] <supergee> theneonshadow, wine
[03:23] <theneonshadow> i closed the window on acident :(
[03:23] <theneonshadow> thans
[03:23] <_jason> cello123, that script looks like all it does is copy things to /usr/local/shar/gprename so i don't really know how it can make your gnome crash?
[03:24] <_jason> cello123, did you actually get to run the program
[03:24] <cello123> _jason: no.
[03:24] <cello123> _jason: i had to force shutdown when gnome panels etc stopped
[03:25] <cello123> _jason: that may have been the wrong thing to do..
[03:25] <nbound> if i can transfer files to my PSP in win but not linux whats the problem, linux automounts and shows the filesystem and it will look like it works till i try to play them and they dont exist, when i reconnect the psp they still dont exist? anyone??? ='( (i think its a problem with the VFAT file system the PSP uses)
[03:26] <joseph> what is GIJ and how is it different than java?
[03:27] <timfrost> nbound, what mount options are shown for the PSP?  Most likely, the user and umask need to be reset.
[03:27] <cello123> thanks for the help
[03:27] <nvez> Hey guys, anyone know's what's a good PHP IDE for Ubuntu?
[03:27] <nbound> timfrost, ive tryed as root and it still didnt work... what is umask?
[03:28] <SolPhoenix> Okay...  I need some help getting wireless to work from Ubuntu.  I have the Intel Centrino 2200 BG or whatever.
[03:29] <_jason> cello123, you could always try installing kdm...
[03:29] <SolPhoenix> I've found http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26623 but I don't know where to get the needed packages.
[03:29] <timfrost> nbound, umask is a mask that forces certain permission bits off.  Try 'mount -oremount,rw,umask=000,user=<your ID> <PSP dev>'
[03:29] <jhenn> whats a good NES emulator for ubuntu?
[03:29] <nbound> timfrost, it automounts
[03:29] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: in Breezy?
[03:30] <SolPhoenix> crimsun: Yeah.
[03:30] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: just enable universe and install the wpasupplicant package
[03:30] <nbound> timfrost, its read like a mem stick or card reader
[03:30] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: I presume that you /are/ trying to use WPA/2, correct? (wpasupplicant isn't needed for WEP)
[03:30] <SolPhoenix> crimsun: I'm just trying to get the WEP to work.
[03:30] <joseph> what is GIJ and how is it different than java?
[03:30] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: then forget those instructions
[03:30] <SolPhoenix> The driver supplied with Ubuntu isn't working.
[03:31] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: it works fine
[03:31] <timfrost> nbound, I know.  The command I typed is for atfer it has mounted, to see if those options make a difference.  If it does make a difference, then we update the settings for the automounter
[03:31] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: paste your /etc/network/interfaces on pastebin
[03:31] <nbound> timfrost, oh ok
[03:32] <SolPhoenix> crimsun: I'm not on Ubuntu currently.  I could reboot and then come back to chat on another computer, though.
[03:32] <nbound> timfrost, what goes in the psp dev bit of Try 'mount -oremount,rw,umask=000,user=<your ID> <PSP dev>'
[03:32] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: that would help
[03:32] <SolPhoenix> BRB.
[03:33] <timfrost> nbound, either the device name or the mount point (/media/PSP or similar)
[03:33] <mahangu_> gnutella client for ubuntu?
[03:33] <nbound> timfrost, ohhh ok
[03:33] <mahangu_> don't say gtk-gnutella
[03:33] <mahangu_> it sucks
[03:33] <mahangu_> :)
[03:34] <mahangu_> :P
[03:34] <mahangu_> crimsun, ive tried mutella, etc
[03:34] <mahangu_> im wondering if there is a third party app i can compile or something
[03:35] <crimsun> --> Google
[03:35] <punkrockguy318> Whenever I do anything X11 related (screensaver, resizing a window, the logout/sudo fadeouts, my CPU usage jumps to 100%.  I'm using a nVidia GeForce 4.  Is this normal?  Shouldn't that kind of work being done by my gfx card not my cpu?
[03:35] <armosfighter> i cant find a place to download GLIB 1.2.2 or later any suggestions?
[03:35] <nbound> timfrost, nope =(
[03:35] <crimsun> armosfighter: dude, I told you an hour ago. sudo apt-get install libglib1.2-dev
[03:36] <nalioth> armosfighter: in a console, type "apt-cache search glib"
[03:36] <paul_> hi i have large font sizes in alot of things such as amsn and kubuntu
[03:36] <timfrost> nbound, that didn't work at all?
[03:36] <nvez> "Apache/2.0.54 (Ubuntu) mod_auth_kerb/5.0-rc6 DAV/2 SVN/1.2.0 mod_jk2/2.0.4 mod_ldap_userdir/1.1.7 mod_python/3.1.3 Python/2.4.2 PHP/5.0.5-2ubuntu1.1 proxy_html/2.4 mod_ruby/1.2.4 Ruby/1.8.3(2005-06-23) Server at localhost Port 80"

[03:36] <paul_> also on the login screen when i enter my name and password the font size is huge
[03:36] <nbound> timfrost, it work, but its exactly the same prob as before
[03:36] <nvez> paul_, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=118348 -- Same problem?
[03:36] <Syco54645> can anyone give me some help on pinning, the guide isnt working for me
[03:36] <paul_> yes
[03:37] <timfrost> nbound, in that case, I am stumped:(
[03:37] <SolPhoenix> Okay... I'm back.
[03:37] <SolPhoenix> crimsun, What did you want me to check?
[03:37] <paul_> nvez, yes
[03:37] <nbound> timfrost, it mounts and seems to write to it, but doesnt (the writing bit is far to wuick on psp screen)
[03:37] <armosfighter> well it couldnt find the package
[03:37] <nbound> quick*
[03:37] <nvez> No idea, see if someone posted at that post, but I have no clue myself.
[03:38] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces
[03:38] <paul_> aww
[03:38] <paul_> thanks anyways
[03:38] <nbound> /dev/sdb1 on /media/usbdisk type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=winnt,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077,iocharset=utf8)
[03:38] <nbound> thats what i get
[03:38] <nbound> if i juts type mount
[03:40] <nbound> u sex then u sulk =/
[03:40] <timfrost> nbound, if your uid is 1000, that *should* be correct.
[03:41] <SolPhoenix> crimsun: the part for the wireless starts out "iface eth1 inet dhcp" and then has my essid and WEP key.
[03:41] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: sanitise it, then pastebin it
[03:41] <nbound> timfrost, well it looks like ive found something where i have to use a windows box for still =(
[03:41] <SolPhoenix> I can't paste it... since I'm not online in Ubuntu.  I'm chatting on another PC.
[03:42] <_avatar> my "Places" menu has a blank entry... when I click it it nautilus pops up to the network browser. can i rename this blank entry? Its really bugging me.
[03:42] <hydroksyde_work> is there a console mode utility to set an IP for the machine?
[03:42] <_jason> _avatar, have you checked the bookmarks in nautilus?
[03:43] <_avatar> _jason: yeah, it has a name in the bookmarks section of nautilus. just not in the "Places" menu
[03:43] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: type it out
[03:43] <timfrost> hydroksyde_work, yes.  ifconfig eth0 ...
[03:43] <PovAddict> hi
[03:43] <_jason> _avatar, have you tried deleting it there and recreating it maybe?
[03:43] <PovAddict> I'm trying to install Ubuntu in Microsoft Virtual PC
[03:43] <PovAddict> but i'm getting this error during installation: http://pastebin.com/509234
[03:43] <KoruptidPryde> crimsun, speaking of network settings... is there an if command to check what the gateway is?
[03:44] <wastrel> anyone know how i can access the removable memory stick in my sony clie from my ubu system?
[03:44] <_avatar> _jason, just tried, didn't fix it. but i did fix it by renaming it again... even though it already had a name. oh well, whatever. thanks :)
[03:44] <brasko> Just to share my solution, I've asked several times here how to map arbirtrary keybindings to arbitrary commands in gnome
[03:44] <KoruptidPryde> PovAddict, won't work... try slackware.... I've used slackware in msvpc before
[03:44] <SolPhoenix> mapping hotplug
[03:44] <brasko> The answer is to use gconf-editor
[03:44] <SolPhoenix>    script grep
[03:44] <SolPhoenix>    map eth0
[03:44] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: pastebin, not here
[03:44] <brasko> and modify /apps/metacity/keybinding_commands/command_1 and /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_1
[03:44] <SolPhoenix> iface eth1 inet dhcp
[03:44] <rixth> sofa, you there?
[03:44] <PovAddict> KoruptidPryde: it's sad, after all the time it took to download :(
[03:44] <sofa> rixth: yeah
[03:45] <limer> hey guys
[03:45] <PovAddict> KoruptidPryde: actually, I'm using msvpc to try it out and if I like it, I'll go dual-boot
[03:45] <timfrost> KoruptidPryde, netstat -nr -prits the routing table.  The gateway is the line starting <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:45] <hyphenated> PovAddict: that's what the live cd is for :-p
[03:46] <crimsun> KoruptidPryde: use route(8)
[03:46] <PovAddict> I want to try it while my MSN Messenger still works... :D
[03:46] <armosfighter> when i did sudo apt-get install libhlibl.2-dev it couldnt find it
[03:46] <PovAddict> VPC looked like the best way to do it
[03:46] <armosfighter> where can i download it
[03:46] <hyphenated> can you really not spend a few minutes without messenger?
[03:46] <armosfighter> im really new at this
[03:46] <crimsun> KoruptidPryde: or if you prefer an inclusive way, use ip route
[03:46] <PovAddict> lol
[03:46] <hikenboot> is there a switch on dpkg for verbose output?
[03:46] <hikenboot> i cant seem to find one in the man pages
[03:47] <armosfighter> meh
[03:47] <crimsun> armosfighter: pastebin the result you get from ``apt-cache policy libglib1.2-dev''
[03:47] <rikai> hm, how do i get an ethernet inerface to see a change to /etc/resolv.conf?
[03:48] <Shadyman> Hey guys, is there an application where you can configure your ACPI settings? When i press my lid-close button, the screen flickers from off to no-light to off to.. etc
[03:48] <progrock> my sound stopped working in a lot of programs... Mplayer, firefox, among others... anyone know where to start to fix this?
[03:48] <PovAddict> well, so there is no way to get Ubuntu working in msvpc?
[03:48] <KoruptidPryde> PovAddict, that's what I have heard
[03:48] <_jason> progrock, have you since rebooted?
[03:48] <uber_spaced> what utility should I use to unpack a rar archive?
[03:49] <PovAddict> http://vpc.visualwin.com/ Ubuntu is in this unofficial list...
[03:49] <SolPhoenix> crimsun: http://pastebin.com/509247
[03:49] <hyphenated> PovAddict: did you try google to see if there were any mentions of "ubuntu" and "Virtual PC" on the same page?
[03:49] <MrPockets> is there a setting in XMMS that makes it go to the next song on the play list after a songs finished?
[03:49] <MrPockets> it used to, but now it doesnt
[03:49] <bimberi> uber_spaced: unrar-free (from universe) or unrar-nonfree (from multiverse)
[03:49] <progrock> _jason, I've restarted recently.... just realized sound is working in firefox.. but its rediculously low... used to be much louder
[03:49] <uber_spaced> thanks.

[03:51] <zerodni> hey i was wondering has anyone noticed that in ubuntu if your are using bash in xterm that if you tab for autocompelte it only works for the first command
[03:51] <blacks> bimberi, its not the same mixer thing as the icon by the notification area
[03:51] <SolPhoenix> crimsun: Yes.
[03:52] <progrock> In MPlayer when i'm playing video the fullscreen and zoom features dont work (they simply stetch a blank screen and keep the video the sasme size
[03:52] <bimberi> blacks: k, sry
[03:52] <SolPhoenix> crimsun: It gets stuck on DHCPDISCOVER
[03:52] <punkrockguy318> Ugh 500 fps on glxgears? :-\
[03:52] <_jason> progrock, are you using 'xv' as the video output?
[03:52] <Shadyman> punkrockguy318: Hah.
[03:52] <crimsun> SolPhoenix: try using the iwconfig directives directly, then
[03:52] <eugman> Hey what is the worst thing that could happen to a computer if the website it's running is comprimised.
[03:52] <progrock> _jason, how do i check that?
[03:52] <_jason> progrock, are you using mplayer or gmplayer?
[03:52] <nvez> Someone having troubles with wireless? :-P
[03:52] <Shadyman> eugman: Depends if you're running Windows or not ;)
[03:53] <punkrockguy318> Shadyman: I don't know what it is.  My x config has glx, nvidia, and my card is supported by the driver
[03:53] <blacks> eugman, local compromise leading to elevated priviliges, and installation of a rootkit you'll never find
[03:53] <progrock> _jason,  gmplayer i believe
[03:53] <KoruptidPryde> SolPhoenix, that usually means you have the wrong encryption key entered
[03:53] <nvez> What does iwconfig give back (pastebin please.)
[03:53] <zerodni> dose any one know how to get autocomplete to work all the time in bash shell
[03:53] <_jason> progrock, preferences -> video
[03:53] <eugman> Ah k. Was wondering what the worst that could happen is.
[03:54] <blacks> well I suppose it could try to re-write your bios or something like that too, hehe
[03:54] <progrock> _jason, x11 is selected
[03:54] <_jason> progrock, choose xv
[03:54] <jwilliams> Hi all.  Does anyone know how to extract one's public key from the gnome-keyring daemon?  I have been googling for this information to no avail
[03:55] <nvez> SolPhoenix, Care to create a pastebin with what 'iwconfig' gives back?
[03:55] <Knelix> So, I just installed 5.10 and I'm trying to re-install my NVIDIA driver...
[03:55] <mkyb14> is there a program that i can use to magnify my screen so that if i'm sitting further back that i can see it??
[03:55] <nvez> Okay, Knelix ?
[03:55] <armosfighter> crimsun... i typed that in and i still get nothing
[03:56] <Knelix> I'm following the directions at the forums.
[03:56] <blacks> mkyb14, try a smaller screen resolution
[03:56] <Knelix> And I still can't install it.
[03:56] <Knelix> Honestly.
[03:56] <mkyb14> anything simplier?
[03:56] <Knelix> It's so annoying.
[03:56] <nvez> Hold on a second, Knelix.
[03:56] <progrock> _jason, do i have to reboot or anything.. since the fullscreen/double size is stil not working
[03:56] <_jason> progrock, did you restart mplayer?
[03:56] <Knelix> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75074 is where I'm looking at.
[03:56] <mkyb14> i'm sitting on my bed watching a mover and i'd like to be able to see gaim
[03:57] <mkyb14> so i was looking fro something to magnify the screen or something
[03:57] <blacks> mkyb14, try the assistive technologies control panel
[03:57] <mkyb14> wheres that

[03:57] <nvez> Tell me if you have troubles with that, but its 5x easier. :-)
[03:57] <rikai> Okay, i'm having a really strange issue, a  friend of mine has an actiontec router that he uses for his verizon dsl to access hte inernet. at first, the internet wouln't work at all, but diabling ipv6 in firefox allowed him to vew web pages, and nothing else. i thought it was jsut ipv6 not working, so i had him disable ipv6 systemwide, which didnt work. I think it may be something relating to /etc/resolv.conf,, but i dont know wha
[03:57] <rikai> t to do at this point or how to fix it, anyone have any idea what i should do?
[03:58] <progrock> _jason, oh, thought i did.. pparently not.. now i get a fatal error"Error openeing/initializing the seleced video_out(-vo) device
[03:58] <punkrockguy318> This is great.. When my cpu is working, i'm getting 6 fps on glxgears
[03:58] <Shadyman> punkrockguy318: Nice.
[03:58] <_jason> progrock, lol great, have you installed your video drivers?
[03:58] <Shadyman> punkrockguy318: I think my laptop with no-name video controller beats you ;)
[03:58] <punkrockguy318> _jason: yeah, my card is supporting and my xconf is loading nvidia and glx...
[03:58] <progrock> _jason, yeah.. fglrx
[03:59] <punkrockguy318> Shadyman: my card isn't that bad.. nvidia geforce4 mmx
[03:59] <punkrockguy318> Shadyman: my card shouldn't be hogging my cpu usage should it?
[04:00] <Shadyman> punkrockguy318: No.
[04:00] <_jason> progrock, can you change it back to x11 or does mplayer just crash
[04:00] <Shadyman> punkrockguy318: Maybe a little bit, but not like that.
[04:00] <punkrockguy318> Shadyman: what could be the problem?
[04:00] <Shadyman> punkrockguy318: Do you have the drivers installed?
[04:00] <nvez> How is it going, Knelix? :)
[04:00] <punkrockguy318> Shadyman: yes, and glx is loaded and so is nvidia
[04:01] <bradley_> hello!
[04:01] <jtaylor> how do i get glxgears to show fps?
[04:01] <progrock> _jason, it switchs back no problem
[04:01] <bradley_> can anyone give me an idea on how to configure openssh?
[04:01] <SolPhoenix> iwconfig returns http://pastebin.com/509258
[04:01] <Shadyman> punkrockguy318: Not a clue, then. sorry
[04:01] <punkrockguy318> jtaylor: glxgears -printfps
[04:01] <_jason> progrock, okay let's see if we can figure out why you get that error
[04:01] <punkrockguy318> Shadyman: could it be a hardware problem?
[04:01] <nvez> "Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00"
[04:01] <nvez> You're not connected to your network, SolPhoenix.
[04:01] <Shadyman> punkrockguy318: Doubtful.
[04:01] <SolPhoenix> Someone had me do an "iwlist scan" earlier...  It said "no scan results"
[04:02] <punkrockguy318> bradley_: what would you like to do?  it's all in /etc/ssh/*
[04:02] <nvez> Try it again, if it says the same that means some driver troubles.
[04:02] <progrock> _jason,  ok, tho i dont even know where to start... more or less a newbie... with some random experience
[04:02] <bradley_> punkrockguy318: i would like to use it to connect to another linux box to access a mysql database.
[04:03] <nvez> err, bradley_, it should be kinda functionining
[04:03] <nvez> ps -A and check for "sshd"
[04:03] <_jason> progrock, gedit ~/.mpalyer/config
[04:04] <punkrockguy318> bradley_: if you want a permenant connection, look into mounting through sftp.  if not, you should be able to do it all with command-line utilities (ssh, scp, sftp)
[04:04] <bradley_> nvez: i just installed openssh... how do i connect to it from another box?
[04:04] <nvez> If it's installed then
[04:04] <nvez> From another linux box
[04:04] <punkrockguy318> bradley_: ssh <user>@<address>
[04:04] <nvez> "ssh -l username hostname.com
[04:04] <SolPhoenix> nvez: I know that I'm not connected...  I can't even connect with my normal ethernet card.
[04:04] <progrock> _jason, ok, the files empty.. just has a comment
[04:04] <_jason> progrock, ok in a new line: zoom=yes
[04:05] <nvez> SolPhoenix, software problem then, not even your ethernet card, did you have some troubles with it in Windows XP?
[04:05] <nvez> Or any other OS.
[04:05] <progrock> _jason, ok
[04:05] <_jason> progrock, save and reopen gmplayer
[04:05] <SolPhoenix> nvez: None at all...
[04:05] <nvez> Did you have to run it sometimes at 10MB?
[04:05] <odat> anyone know of a good way to get my ip address ( by the way i'm on a router )
[04:05] <nvez> odat, whatismyip.com
[04:06] <nvez> If you want your public IP.
[04:06] <CentHOGG> ifconfig
[04:06] <nvez> Private IP, then ifconfig.
[04:06] <SolPhoenix> nvez: Not that I know.
[04:06] <nvez> SolPhoenix, is your ethernet connected now?
[04:06] <progrock> _jason, well, i can zoom now, lol, thank you
[04:06] <_jason> progrock, yep np
[04:07] <bradley_> what's the default port for ssh?
[04:07] <nvez> 22
[04:07] <odat> thanx
[04:07] <CentHOGG> 21 around there
[04:07] <SolPhoenix> nvez: Not currently.  I could, though.
[04:07] <bradley_> thank you
[04:07] <progrock> _jason, I guess no point in attepting to get xv to work since x11 is?
[04:07] <nvez> SolPhoenix, well, if you can try to, as setting up ethernet is way easier than wireless on linux.
[04:07] <_jason> progrock, yeah has something to do with the drivers
[04:08] <nvez> SolPhoenix, though were you able to access local network while being on Ethernet?
[04:08] <progrock> _jason, lol.. guessi  should expect that with ati.. anyway, thanks again
[04:08] <CentHOGG> what happened with ATI?
[04:09] <bradley_> how do you change the default port in ssh?
[04:09] <nvez> bradley_, I'm sure it's in OpenSSH's configuration
[04:09] <nvez> Hold on, let me look.
[04:09] <bradley_> ok
[04:09] <bradley_> i'll look into it... thanks for the help nvez
[04:10] <ejofee> how do i make sound available in... two accounts at the same time?
[04:10] <SolPhoenix> nvez: I simply tried connecting the ethernet to my router.  It failed.
[04:10] <nvez> So, it's connected VIA ethernet now?
[04:10] <SolPhoenix> nvez: Yes.
[04:11] <nvez> Okay, pastebin -> ifconfig
[04:11] <Knelix> nvez, thanks... looking now...
[04:11] <nvez> NP.

[04:16] <hav0k> im trying to resize my linux partition, and ive booted up off a live cd and opened up qtparted, but when i choose the partition, it says the status is "readonly."  how can i change this so that i can resize the partition?
[04:17] <cyphase> so that any program can use the sinle connection
[04:17] <lysis> where do you recommend to get some really REALLY kickin background?  prefereably with a ubuntu theme to it.
[04:17] <cyphase> lysis, try art.ubuntu.com
[04:17] <cyphase> and art.gnome.org
[04:17] <_jason> ubotu, tell lysis about themes
[04:17] <lysis> thanks
[04:17] <rikai> nvez, any dns serverss hould work, ne?
[04:17] <cyphase> lysis, actually, there's a program that gives you an interface to art.gnome.org
[04:17] <_jason> lysis, try deviantart, there is nice stuff there.  For ubuntu stuff use the links ubotu sent you

[04:18] <hav0k> does anyone know how to change the permissions on a partition?
[04:18] <_jason> hav0k, is this a partition you mounted?
[04:18] <hav0k> the partition is not mounted... because im wanting to resize it.
[04:19] <cyphase> the package is art-manager i think
[04:19] <luisito> hello
[04:19] <_jason> hav0k, not sure what you mean by permissions then
[04:19] <hav0k> well, its has it listed as "readonly"
[04:20] <hav0k> in status of qtparted
[04:20] <luisito> anyone knows something abut cable modem uncapping?
[04:20] <_jason> hav0k, boot with a livedisk

[04:20] <luisito> offtopic, I know...
[04:21] <_jason> hav0k, oh I don't know then.  I tried using synaptic for that same exact thing and wasn't sure what to do.  Popped in the ubuntu live and had it done in 2 seconds
[04:21] <cyphase> lysis, it's actually gnome-art (i checked this time :P)
[04:21] <hav0k> you resized a partition?
[04:21] <_jason> hav0k, yes
[04:21] <BxL> is there any way to make this webcam work in ubuntu? http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/CA/FR,CRID=2204,CONTENTID=10136
[04:21] <_jason> hav0k, I used gparted though
[04:21] <SolPhoenix> I'm just wondering but could my router be the reason that I can't go online via ethernet or wireless in Ubuntu?
[04:21] <hav0k> with the ubuntu live cd?  does it have gparted on it
[04:21] <hav0k> ah
[04:22] <hav0k> maybe ill try that...  i have the ubuntu live cd... i just didnt know if gparted came on it
[04:22] <CentHOGG> hav0k: sposed too
[04:22] <_jason> hav0k, when I said synaptic above that probably made no sense... I meant knoppix :P
[04:22] <hav0k> alright, well, ill boot up with that and see if i have any better luck.
[04:22] <hav0k> yeah, not a whole lot
[04:22] <hav0k> alright, well i guess ill be back in a second.

[04:26] <skon> RuthFan: just ask
[04:26] <Corrupter> how do i make a file hidden from the command line
[04:26] <_adub> no other than apt-cache search i need to find apt sources to add to sources.list
[04:27] <progrock> how do i enable repeat in mplayer?
[04:27] <skon> Corrupter: name should start with .
[04:27] <_jason> Corrupter, precede it with a '.', so test becomes .test
[04:27] <CentHOGG> Corrupter: put a "." in front of it
[04:27] <RuthFan> I was able to connect to the internet, but unable to use internet applications.
[04:27] <JeffATL> skon: what about the password for user "ubuntu"?
[04:27] <Knelix> Thank you, nvez. Yes, this was much easier.
[04:27] <Corrupter> lol, ok, how do i rename it in command line?
[04:27] <_jason> Corrupter, mv old new
[04:27] <CentHOGG> RuthFan: duhhhh
[04:27] <MacSlow> Corrupter, e.g.: mv somefile .somefile
[04:27] <_jason> ubotu, tell Corrupter about cli
[04:27] <skon> JeffATL: hm, I'm not sure actually, don't use the LiveCD
[04:28] <JeffATL> skon: but i must
[04:28] <SolPhoenix> So is it not possible that I need a different wireless driver?
[04:28] <_jason> _adub, if you wanted a web-search: packages.ubuntu.com, otherwise synaptic and/or apt-cache search is what you want
[04:28] <MacSlow> Corrupter, you can also do it via the the UI (inside nautilus)
[04:28] <skon> JeffATL: I meant, I don't use it
[04:28] <JeffATL> skon: oh ok
[04:28] <MacSlow> Corrupter, you don't have to use the shell/commandline/cli/terminal

[04:41] <linux_user400354> why does linux use PNG? Is it because PNG pictures are better than JPEG?
[04:41] <cafuego> nalioth: My iBook is online using WPA on Dapper.
[04:41] <poningru> linux_user400354: yes
[04:41] <nalioth> cafuego: yes, i've heard it's possible. cool!
[04:41] <poningru> linux_user400354: because jpeg is different use than png
[04:42] <cafuego> nalioth: 2.56.15-12 with a small custom patch did the trick.
[04:42] <blacks> PNG is freer, it also compresses vector art much nicer than jpeg
[04:42] <poningru> jpeg is for pictures and stuff png is for icons/clipart etc

[04:50] <skon> linux_user400354: I have, what version do you have
[04:50] <Syco54645> linux_user400354: get gmeeting or what ever the gnome meeting thing is
[04:50] <volvoguy> hey all. does anyone know of an inexpensive colocated or virtual server service that allows you to use Ubuntu?
[04:50] <nrdb> Ap4ch3, that appears to be the trouble i forgot about the usb. thanks a lot.
[04:50] <bimberi> volvoguy: unixshell.com
[04:51] <volvoguy> bimberi, they list debian - are you sure they'll let you use Ubuntu?
[04:51] <owner> ubuntu is debian based
[04:51] <bimberi> volvoguy: they also list ubuntu (on the front page - 'bout half way down)
[04:52] <jonshea> Is there any easy way get streaming mp3 working (like .pls files)? I love Ubuntu with all my heart, but I'm dying without NPR. Something in the PLF repository, maybe?
[04:52] <_adub> they say multiverse has mplayer but it doesnt??

[04:53] <blacks> _adub, be sure to update

[04:53] <poningru> jonshea: look into rythmbox
[04:53] <nalioth> jonshea: have you enabled your machine with mp3 capability?
[04:53] <linux_user400354> skon: i dont know the version, the only thing i know is the output lsusb tells me

[04:54] <linux_user400354> Syco54645, Gnomemeeting comes with Ubuntu, but I think I need a driver for gnomemeeting to use my cam
[04:54] <nalioth> _adub: in your /etc/apt/sources.list  find and replace "universe" for "universe multiverse" and then update your apt
[04:54] <PuMpErNiCkLe> jmhodges: Is it formatted?  Have you checked in GParted?
[04:55] <nalioth> Cr0w-: we learn things every day  :)

[04:58] <dwhsix> any thoughts on a halfway-decent podcast aggregator for ubuntu?
[04:58] <speedy> isnt there mysql5 package for ubuntu?
[04:58] <jmhodges> poningru: it makes me think i've got a bad kernel or some such
[04:58] <dwhsix> ipodder seems to have morphed into juicer which doesn't have a linux download right now
[04:58] <poningru> jmhodges: no it cant be
[04:58] <Friman> I just installed ubuntu, and decided not to put an account, and now it wont let me log in as root
[04:59] <poningru> jmhodges: you sure bios detects it?
[04:59] <dwhsix> and the ipodder I'm running keeps making 0-byte files...
[04:59] <jonshea> robotgeek, poningru, nalioth: mp3 decoders seem to be the issue. Is it just a matter of figuring out the right package to apt-get?
[04:59] <Friman> it says root cannot log in through this screen
[04:59] <jmhodges> poningru: yep
[04:59] <gach> HELLO I NEED HELP
[04:59] <theneonshadow> with what Gach

[05:00] <bimberi> gach: add the module name to /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[05:00] <jmhodges> was getting a "Error: Unable to open /dev/hdb - unrecognised disk label."
[05:00] <Friman> How do i log in as root? i cant from the log in screen...on ubuntu..
[05:00] <theneonshadow> hm how do you make the text appear red to the people you want to be talking to
[05:00] <_jason> ubotu, tell Friman about root
[05:00] <poningru> Friman: use sudo instead
[05:00] <Friman> :o
[05:00] <nalioth> ubotu: tell jonshea about mp3
[05:00] <PuMpErNiCkEl> theneonshadow: Stick their name in front?

[05:00] <theneonshadow> i was just checking
[05:01] <Friman> sudo? hehe < noob
[05:01] <poningru> jmhodges: but its fixed now?
[05:01] <poningru> !root
[05:01] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[05:01] <Friman> i got it
[05:01] <Friman> yeah
[05:01] <jmhodges> poningru: oh yeah
[05:01] <jmhodges> poningru: now i need to figure out where it is in my dmesg and wahy i didnt find it
[05:01] <Cythril> How would i go about customizing the look and location of like the task bar and such?
[05:01] <Shadyman> Cythril: Click and drag :)
[05:02] <_jason> ubotu, tell Cythril about themes
[05:02] <Shadyman> Cythril: Most things you'll have to right click on and take off "Lock to taskbar"
[05:02] <Shadyman> Cythril: Make that, Panel
[05:02] <bimberi> Cythril: also, right-click -> Properties
[05:02] <Friman> Can i still use sudo without another user? because i never created one at start up, i only have root...
[05:02] <_jason> Friman, did you do expert install?
[05:03] <Friman> no
[05:03] <Cythril> Yeah...like, I saw this pic: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=31128&file1=31128-1.jpg&file2=31128-2.jpg&file3=31128-3.jpg&name=Gentle+Gnome+mockup and the way the bar looked pretty neat, is there a way to make it look more like that?
[05:03] <stpere_notebook> hi, anyone have experience in updating mesa on breezy?
[05:03] <stpere_notebook> I tried to get help in #dri without answer
[05:03] <poningru> jmhodges: you sure you are doing sudo dmesg?
[05:03] <theneonshadow> so are you peeps just random people who hang out in linux help chatrooms or some kind of linux professionals
[05:03] <adriyel> !vnc
[05:03] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, vnc is http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-36715.html http://www.tightvnc.com/docs.html
[05:03] <PuMpErNiCkEl> theneonshadow: Random people. :)
[05:03] <_jason> Friman, with a normal install you don't get root, you create a user that get's sudo priv
[05:03] <theneonshadow> PuMpErNiCkEl: cool. I fit right in then
[05:03] <Friman> well um
[05:04] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: Some of both :)
[05:04] <Friman> maybe i did do expert install
[05:04] <poningru> pssh
[05:04] <Orborde> What command do I type to lock the screen?
[05:04] <poningru> I am a linux professional
[05:04] <poningru> muhahahaha
[05:04] <_jason> Friman, after you installed did you just get thrown to a terminal when you booted up?
[05:04] <poningru> Orborde: what so you mean lock the screen? system->lock screen?
[05:04] <joaquinz> hey
[05:04] <joaquinz> i've serious trouble here
[05:04] <Friman> no, im at the log in screen
[05:04] <jmhodges> ok, and  now a silly question and i know is probably very wrong.. if i copy over my entire harddrive as it is now, and switch the new drive over as the new master, will it boot properly?
[05:04] <Friman> after touching nothing
[05:04] <joaquinz> i've updated to dapper drake flight 3
[05:04] <phiber_optic> Good nite everyone
[05:04] <seadog409> theneonshadow: I have been running ubunu for about 6 months now
[05:04] <_jason> Friman, strange...
[05:04] <theneonshadow> poningru: i just started linux training
[05:04] <blacks> Orborde, try xlock
[05:04] <joaquinz> and network card doesnt want to work at start up
[05:04] <Orborde> poningru: Yes. I'm trying to use xbindkeys to configure a key to do it, and to do that, I need the command.
[05:04] <phiber_optic> UBUNTU ROCKS F.. WINDBLOWS
[05:05] <Orborde> blacks: It doesn't seem to exist, though I'll try apt.
[05:05] <_jason> Friman, pastebin the contents of /etc/sudoers
[05:05] <joaquinz> ive to do /etc/init.d/networking restart in order to get it working
[05:05] <theneonshadow> I learn more in these chatrooms than in classrooms :)
[05:05] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: Ditto :)
[05:05] <poningru> Orborde: just go to system->pref->keyboard shortcuts
[05:05] <seadog409> theneonshadow: same here
[05:05] <Friman> what jason? 0_0
[05:05] <_jason> ubotu, tell Friman about pastebin
[05:05] <Hollowman> how do i start mysql
[05:05] <theneonshadow> thats kinda funny huh
[05:05] <joaquinz> any idea??
[05:05] <Orborde> poningru: That appears to have issues with key combos.
[05:05] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: I've learned things like.. Uninstalling Python is usually a BAD thing.
[05:05] <poningru> Orborde: what do you mean?
[05:05] <Friman> well, i cant paste anything because i cant log in
[05:05] <poningru> Orborde: what do you want the key combo to be?
[05:05] <seadog409> theneonshadow: and with chatting with ubotu
[05:06] <Orborde> poningru: Oh, wait. It has no problem with Control, etc.
[05:06] <theneonshadow> shadyman: oh yeah... i learn stuff like the hard way
[05:06] <Orborde> poningru: So I suppose I COULD make it work. I'm trying to do Super+L.
[05:06] <jmhodges> ah, hmm
[05:06] <Hollowman> how do i start mysql
[05:07] <theneonshadow> Shadyman: although i wouldnt wanna uninstall python, i took a class on useing it. I almost didn't even need the class but i felt like getting my skillz on paper
[05:07] <ceWek_LUCU__fs> alow
[05:07] <poningru> !tell Hollowman about mysql
[05:07] <Orborde> poningru: Sorry, I hit Control+Q. Ain't I clever?
[05:07] <_jason> Orborde, are you tring to make ashortcut use the win key?
[05:07] <poningru> Orborde: hehe
[05:07] <_jason> trying even
[05:07] <phiber_optic> !tell Hollowman about mysql
[05:07] <deicidus> hi. so i installed dapper and it looks like that'll fix my airport extreme problem once i instal the firmware, *but X won't start*. it says "failed to start the X server (your graphical interface). it is likely that it is not set up correctly. would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?". when i did the xserver config thing, and then startx, it says "the x server is now disabled. restart gdm when it is confi
[05:07] <deicidus> gured correctly."
[05:07] <Hollowman> :D
[05:07] <Orborde> _jason: Yes.
[05:07] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: Yeah, but there are some programs that depend on python. And doing an absolute remove doesn't help matters.
[05:08] <deicidus> also, i previously upgraded from breezy to dapper via apt-get, and that booted fine, but i did a clean install to get rid of package messiness.
[05:08] <poningru> deicidus: airport extreme should have worked out of the box for dapper
[05:08] <_jason> ubotu, tell Orborde about winkey
[05:08] <deicidus> poningru: i thought you had to install specific firmware
[05:08] <BenC> cafuego: the -13.18 kernel has wpa capable bcm43xx+ieee80211+softmac
[05:08] <theneonshadow> shadyman: haha, yeah i don't doubt that
[05:08] <BenC> not uploaded yet though
[05:08] <_jason> ubotu, tell Orborde about winkey
[05:08] <poningru> deicidus: no the broadcom module is in the kernel by default in dapper
[05:09] <phiber_optic> whats the command to see which version im at on?
[05:09] <deicidus> poningru: aw, crap, then why wont mine work? it sees the device but it wont join any networks.
[05:09] <_jason> phiber_optic, version of ubuntu? lsb_release -a
[05:09] <tyler> i wonder if anyone here has error 41 problems with brother multifuntion centers here?
[05:09] <poningru> deicidus: hmm
[05:09] <ceWek_LUCU__fs> alow
[05:10] <poningru> deicidus: look into the wiki troubleshooting
[05:10] <Shadyman> tyler: The better question is does anyone have a brother multifunction center that works, period.
[05:10] <poningru> err wifi troubleshooting in the wiki
[05:10] <deicidus> poningru: ok
[05:10] <tritium> hi Orborde
[05:10] <theneonshadow> is there a program thats similar to telnet on Linux?
[05:10] <Shadyman> tyler: "Works" is a relative term with brother printers.
[05:10] <poningru> !wifi
[05:10] <ubotu> rumour has it, wifi is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[05:10] <phiber_optic> _jason there is another command if im not mistaken
[05:10] <PuMpErNiCkLe> theneonshadow: ssh?
[05:10] <phiber_optic> theneonshadow ssh
[05:10] <theneonshadow> i see... so how do i run this ssh
[05:10] <poningru> theneonshadow: you can use telnet on linux
[05:10] <tyler> Shadyman, hahahaa
[05:10] <tyler> lolz
[05:11] <PuMpErNiCkLe> theneonshadow: Not that linux doesn't have telnet, too... it's just insecure, old, and deprecated. :)
[05:11] <_jason> phiber_optic, let me know if you figure it out, I'd like to know if there's another :)
[05:11] <pder> I TRY THE UBUNTU AND IT ARE CRAP
[05:11] <phiber_optic> i remember there was another
[05:11] <Shadyman> pder: Good for you.
[05:11] <robotgeek> pder: that will not help :)
[05:11] <tyler> its really pissing me off..
[05:11] <poningru> !tell theneonshadow about ssh
[05:11] <_jason> pder, yep, that'll get your problem solved
[05:11] <phiber_optic> but its being long i dont use it
[05:11] <nalioth> pder: join #ubuntu-offtopic to discuss that, please
[05:11] <theneonshadow> poningru: thats the best responce i've gotten. do i just type telnet in the command
[05:11] <tyler> brother told me to get new print haed n labor charges n transport charges
[05:11] <PuMpErNiCkLe> theneonshadow: yeah
[05:11] <tyler> freak
[05:11] <poningru> theneonshadow: yeah dude pretty sure you can just do that
[05:11] <Orborde> tritium: Hello. Who are you?
[05:11] <poningru> theneonshadow: try man telnet
[05:11] <poningru> hold on
[05:12] <theneonshadow> poningru: sweet
[05:12] <theneonshadow> whats the terminal server client do?
[05:12] <tritium> Orborde: I'm one of your friendly channel ops.
[05:12] <poningru> theneonshadow: yeah dude do man telnet for help
[05:12] <nalioth> tritium: you are?
[05:12] <poningru> he is?
[05:12] <theneonshadow> poningru: thanks!
[05:12] <Shadyman> tritium: I was going to suggest to Orbode that you were a stalker ;)
[05:12] <poningru> yep
[05:13] <Shadyman> hehe
[05:13] <GameOver> hey guys does anyonen know how to get a HP multimedia keyboard to work... so i can control the volume and stuff?... maybe get onscreen graphics too when i do so
[05:13] <tritium> Shadyman: :)
[05:13] <Shadyman> GameOver: There was a package i found once. Look in Synaptic for hotkeys
[05:13] <GameOver> shadyman: will do
[05:13] <tritium> Orborde: I noticed you're on purdue resnet, so I figured I'd say "hi"
[05:14] <poningru> GameOver: iirc thats in multiverse so make sure that is turned on
[05:14] <Shadyman> poningru: True that.
[05:14] <Orborde> tritium: So I am. And I can't /DNS you, you stinker.
[05:14] <GameOver> shadyman: hotkeys... or hotkeys setup
[05:15] <GameOver> poningru: iirc?... and whats multiverse?
[05:15] <Orborde> poningru / _jason : That doesn't quite solve the problem; I apparently still need a command to run to actually lock.
[05:15] <tritium> Orborde: sorry ;)  Anyway, I'm an alum
[05:15] <Shadyman> GameOver: Something to do with hotkeys, and not the one that comes with ubuntu
[05:15] <Shadyman> GameOver: Let me look
[05:15] <GameOver> shadyman: ok
[05:15] <Orborde> tritium: Glad to see that Purdue isn't COMPLETELY full of Windows blockheads, eh?

[05:16] <phiber_optic> anyone know how can I configure the buttons from my keyboard to make it like stop xmms
[05:16] <s_spiff{AWAY}> abotu?
[05:16] <_jason> Orborde, configure it with the regular keyboard shortcut interface, make it ALT+L i guess, then change it in gconf to use <mod4>L
[05:16] <tritium> Orborde: nope :)
[05:16] <GameOver> thanks
[05:16] <Orborde> tritium: You'd prefer we all used Windows?
[05:16] <Shadyman> GameOver: Is Hotkey-setup already installed?
[05:16] <theneonshadow> Windows is for sux0or
[05:16] <tritium> Orborde: no way, man
[05:17] <GameOver> let me check its on my other computer
[05:17] <GameOver> one sec shadyman
[05:17] <poningru> Orborde: hold on
[05:17] <Orborde> tritium: "Glad to see that Purdue isn't COMPLETELY full of Windows blockheads, eh?" "nope :)"
[05:17] <nate__> is there a way to turn on root access in nautilus so you can copy/paste files that you normally can't copy/paste/delete?
[05:17] <Shadyman> GameOver: Ok, because hotkeys-setup comes bundled with Ubuntu, IIRC.
[05:17] <nalioth> nate__: it's not advised to use any gui with superuser priveleges
[05:17] <tritium> Orborde: as in, nope, it is not full of...
[05:17] <GameOver> shadyman: so i should get the ohter?
[05:17] <_adub> how do i change my clock to not do military time
[05:17] <nate__> nalioth, ok, that's what i thought
[05:18] <Shadyman> GameOver: If you already have the first one, then yes.
[05:18] <poningru> Orborde: why cant you just use the super_l button then?
[05:18] <Shadyman> GameOver: Are you on Gnome or KDE?
[05:18] <poningru> Orborde: it works for me
[05:18] <theneonshadow> can a windows computer and a linux computer be on the same network without causing problems
[05:18] <nalioth> ubotu: tell nate__ about gksudo
[05:18] <nalioth> ubotu: tell nate__ about kdesu
[05:18] <jclinton> nate__: you shouldn't be using nautilus for file copying right now anyways
[05:18] <_adub> im using kde how do i change my clock to not do military time
[05:18] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: Yes.
[05:18] <nate__> that leads to my next question, any way to delete entire directories from the terminal?
[05:18] <poningru> theneonshadow: ofcourse
[05:18] <theneonshadow> cool i was just makin sure
[05:18] <Orborde> poningru: Because I assigned other stuff to Super_L + blah, and I don't want to nail it accidentally.
[05:18] <nate__> jclinton, what should i be using?  i'm using the terminal right now, what are the downsides to nautilus?
[05:18] <PuMpErNiCkLe> _adub: Right click -> prefs -> uncheck '24h clock'
[05:18] <jclinton> nate__: 'rm -rf dir/'
[05:19] <nalioth> ubotu: tell nate__ about cli
[05:19] <jclinton> nate__: nautilus has some serious data loss bugs
[05:19] <nalioth> nate__: read the info ubotu just linked you to, it will open doors for you
[05:19] <nate__> -rf ok thanks
[05:19] <jclinton> nalioth: stop spamming
[05:19] <poningru> Orborde: oh dude just use the pause/break button
[05:19] <nate__> nalioth, Dude, i know what the terminal is, i've been doing hours of work inthe terminal, last time i was in here you linked me to the cli thing too, i don't need that
[05:19] <poningru> oh no he didn
[05:19] <GameOver> shadyman: KDE
[05:19] <GameOver> and yes its only the setup one thats installed
[05:20] <nilsL> a gui based ftp program, except for gFTP? :)
[05:20] <nate__> nalioth, do you really think anybody in here doesn't know what the terminal is?
[05:20] <_jason> Orborde, /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/screensaver <- that's what you want to set to lock the screen
[05:20] <Shadyman> GameOver: Ok, yeah. When I was using Kubuntu, I had to get the Hotkeys scripts
[05:20] <nalioth> nate__: then if you know the terminal, why are you asking about file mangling in nautilus?
[05:20] <jclinton> nilsL: any of the file managers
[05:20] <hippie23> how do I turn up the refresh rate on my monitor?
[05:20] <nilsL> jclinton: oh really
[05:20] <nilsL> jclinton: thx
[05:20] <GameOver> shadyman: so i get both?
[05:20] <poningru> nilsL: there are many I would say fireftp in firefox extension
[05:20] <GameOver> i mean the othe rone
[05:20] <jclinton> nalioth: leave him alone
[05:20] <Shadyman> GameOver: Do you have hotkey-setup already?
[05:20] <GameOver> shadyman: yes
[05:20] <nate__> nalioth, because i wanna get a directory of php files and images and stuff that i've made into my apache root folder, but it's a pain copying 15 images one by one
[05:20] <Shadyman> GameOver: Yeah, go for the other one
[05:20] <hippie23> its runing at 1024x768 @ 60hz, it can do 85hz
[05:20] <Shadyman> GameOver: Both
[05:21] <nalioth> nate__: so use the terminal to cp them recursively
[05:21] <nilsL> poningru: thx
[05:21] <poningru> nilsL: yep
[05:21] <hippie23> it only gives me the 60hz option
[05:21] <nate__> nalioth, now we are getting somewhere, what's recursively?
[05:21] <GameOver> Shadyman: and should work once installed?
[05:21] <poningru> !bash
[05:21] <ubotu> For a list of basic commands, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands
[05:21] <Shadyman> GameOver: May take some minimal configuring.
[05:21] <poningru> nate__: look through that
[05:21] <jclinton> hippie23: go to a terminal and run as root: dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver
[05:21] <GameOver> shadyman can u help me with it if needed?
[05:21] <poningru> it should help, also look into regular expressions
[05:21] <nilsL> jclinton: could i do it in rox?
[05:21] <nalioth> nate__: you are sending very mixed signals here. ubotu has linked you to a lot of info on using the terminal
[05:21] <Shadyman> GameOver: It should have man pages though. I can try, but it's been a while.
[05:22] <_adub> pumpernickle i think mine is different
[05:22] <jclinton> nilsL: no idea what rox is; use konqueror or nautilus
[05:22] <nalioth> jclinton: rox is a lightweight gui file manager
[05:22] <nate__> i know what the terminal is, i know how to use it, i just started using it yesterday so i do not know all the commands by heart and what the modifiers do, i just need help on what modifies do what
[05:22] <GameOver> ok let me try, ill brb shadyman
[05:22] <phiber_optic> anyone know how can I configure the buttons from my keyboard to make it like stop xmms?
[05:22] <jonshea> nalioth: Thanks for that mp3 help. That was _exactly_ what I was looking for.
[05:22] <jclinton> nalioth: too lightweight to be well known then
[05:23] <deicidus> poningru: ok, im finding nothing on the wiki. i think there might not be a driver, but i dont know how to check.
[05:23] <hippie23> thats a lil bit of a pain to configure my monitor, I just want to set my refresh rate, not my whole x-server setup
[05:23] <_jason> nate__, do you know about man pages?  that's probably the fastest way to get that info
[05:23] <nalioth> nate__: we are not here to spoon feed you. you have been given links to info that will help you.
[05:23] <poningru> deicidus: oh sorry dude here let me link you to it
[05:23] <nate__> i am on wiki.ubuntu.com/basiccommands, it doesn't have anything aobut -r, i'd use the man files but they are usally confusing and it's easier to get an answer from IRC
[05:23] <theneonshadow> my brain hurts
[05:23] <theneonshadow> stupid lcd lights
[05:23] <jclinton> phiber_optic: go to System and configured keyboard shortcut
[05:23] <_adub> im using kde how do i change my clock to not do military time
[05:23] <jclinton> hippie23: that's how it's done
[05:23] <_jason> nate__, try 'man cp' for example
[05:23] <jclinton> hippie23: there are only 5 questions
[05:23] <nalioth> jclinton: it was for an older time when the machines weren't as powerful or advanced. it still works in a simple way
[05:23] <poningru> deicidus: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiTroubleshooting
[05:23] <nate__> i know the man pages, i just needed a quick, specific, answer, not a definition of CLI, good lord
[05:23] <Shadyman> _adub: They might know in /join #kubuntu
[05:23] <nate__> forget it, i'm just going to man pages
[05:24] <nate__> i thought it'd be easy to get somebody to just tell me the command to copy whole directories
[05:24] <deicidus> poningru: ok thanks
[05:24] <poningru> nate__: stop let me link you to a bigger tutorial
[05:24] <seadog409> _adub: right click clock > date and time
[05:24] <jclinton> nate__: cp -R source/ destination/
[05:24] <hippie23> last time I did it, there was about 15
[05:24] <_jason> nate__, you can search a man page by hitting '/', you search term, enter... n and N to navigate back and forth
[05:24] <nate__> thanks guya
[05:24] <nate__> guys*
[05:24] <nate__> :)
[05:24] <jclinton> hippie23: well then why are you asking? you say the option there? are you just wasting our time?
[05:24] <Orborde> _jason: Doesn't seem to want to work.
[05:24] <seadog409> _adub: date and time format I mean
[05:24] <nate__> that really helped, thanks especially to jclinton and jason :)
[05:24] <_adub> seadog409 gosh that was easy i feel dumb
[05:25] <nbound> how do i turn on dma for my cd-rom, and then make it that way as default
[05:25] <_jason> Orborde, grr let me try, did you manage to change the setting ok?
[05:25] <poningru> nate__: http://linuxcommand.org/
[05:25] <GameOver> shadyman: yeah it doesnt work by just installing it
[05:25] <_adub> thanks bro
[05:25] <poningru> that explains pretty well
[05:25] <Orborde> _jason: Yeah
[05:25] <nate__> oh, one more thing, is there a way to exit a man page and go back to the terminal you were at?  I usually just close the terminal window
[05:25] <poningru> nate__: thats how I learned almost all bash
[05:25] <jclinton> nate__: 'q'
[05:25] <hippie23> no, Im looking for a easyer way to do it
[05:25] <poningru> I kno
[05:25] <nalioth> nate__: jclinton and jason will not be around all the time at your beck and call.
[05:25] <nate__> jclinton, thanks, i knew it'd be obvious
[05:25] <Orborde> _jason: I set it to <mod4>l
[05:25] <seadog409> _adub: in Tme format change it to PH:MM:SS AMPM
[05:25] <jclinton> nalioth: come again?
[05:25] <nate__> nalioth, as long as you aren't around i'll do just fine
[05:25] <nate__> :)
[05:25] <nbound> how do i turn on dma for my cd-rom, and then make it that way as default????
[05:25] <jclinton> hippie23: THERE ISN'T ONE, stop whining
[05:25] <hippie23> can I just edit my xorg.config file?
[05:25] <poningru> nate__: thats not fair
[05:26] <_adub> yeah i got it seadog409 thanks bro
[05:26] <nate__> thank you to jclinton and _jason for being helpful, thanks to nalioth for giving me the history of linux :)
[05:26] <nate__> good day
[05:26] <seadog409> _adub: no prob
[05:26] <poningru> jeez
[05:26] <nalioth> jclinton: i am here to teach folks how to use their *nix systems. not spoon feed them every little command. nate was given several differnt links to help himself
[05:26] <hippie23> F-you jclinton... I wast rude to you, theres no rason for you to be rude to me
[05:26] <jclinton> nalioth: go away then, you don't have the right attitude
[05:26] <theneonshadow> holy cow i just noticed that if you log in to aim using gaim it doesnt send the message telling you theres multiple log ins
[05:26] <tritium> hippie23: chill out please
[05:26] <poningru> jclinton: its the feed a man for a day and feed him for life metaphor applies
[05:27] <poningru> !tell hippie23 about coc
[05:27] <jclinton> hippie23: you are being patronizing; i answered your question
[05:27] <nbound> nalioth, and thats the way it should be, so users dont have to rely on this channel
[05:27] <GameOver> also... does anyone know how to get rid of the black frames around the pciture when u zoom or go fullscreen in mplayer?
[05:27] <GameOver> the movie doesnt get bigger the black frames do
[05:27] <sklav> GameOver, its because its widescreen formated the black frames are there
[05:27] <nbound> GameOver, thats weird, which player?
[05:27] <GameOver> Mplayer
[05:27] <sklav> i have had luck with using the anamorphic option
[05:27] <GameOver> and no its no a movie
[05:27] <GameOver> its a tv show
[05:28] <GameOver> it doesnt zoom in
[05:28] <poningru> GameOver: thats part of the tv show
[05:28] <GameOver> only the black bars get bigger
[05:28] <GameOver> no
[05:28] <phiber_optic> on my keyboard shortcut what does it mean 0xa0
[05:28] <GameOver> its with everymovie i have
[05:28] <nbound> GameOver, does it do it in totem?
[05:28] <GameOver> i dont like totem
[05:28] <GameOver> it doesnt do it in vlc
[05:28] <GameOver> player
[05:28] <Shadyman> phiber_optic: That's a special key. Some kind of hotkey
[05:28] <_jason> Orborde, strange, it works for other commands fine.  Try restarting X
[05:28] <jclinton> phiber_optic: its just a default; change it
[05:28] <deicidus> poningru: thanks but i'll come back to that. my main problem now is no gui! it does look like its a driver problem though.
[05:28] <Orborde> _jason: What do you mean?
[05:28] <tritium> jclinton: please be polite
[05:28] <phiber_optic> when I click like the special keys, it doesnt do any effect to xmms.
[05:28] <nbound> GameOver, whats wrong with totem?
[05:28] <Orborde> _jason: I mean, what does it work with?
[05:28] <jclinton> tritium: pardon?
[05:29] <GameOver> Shadyman: can u help me configure the hotkeys
[05:29] <phiber_optic> Pasue key + XF86AudioPause
[05:29] <Slaj_R> If I want to petition the developes to update a package, whom do I contact?
[05:29] <Shadyman> GameOver: I can try.
[05:29] <phiber_optic> what is xf86?
[05:29] <GameOver> nbound: i dunno just didnt like it
[05:29] <_jason> Orborde, with the metacity -> keybindings (the screensaver lock didn't work for me either)
[05:29] <GameOver> same with kaffeine
[05:29] <jeff303> does anyone know if there is a firefox extension ro resubmit a POST periodically?
[05:29] <GameOver> didnt like it
[05:29] <poningru> deicidus: hmm disable the firmware that you added
[05:29] <jclinton> phiber_optic: it's a name for a key code that's all
[05:29] <nbound> GameOver, um ok
[05:29] <_jason> Orborde, but it may be worth a try to set the change and restart X
[05:29] <deicidus> poningru: i didnt add any
[05:29] <GameOver> does totem handle streaming video well?
[05:29] <Shadyman> GameOver: Try going in to terminal, do "man hotkeys". That should give you some info about it
[05:29] <Orborde> _jason: So you can assign super commands to the metacity binds?
[05:29] <jclinton> phiber_optic: just set the key you want that's all, press backspace if you need to clear it
[05:30] <poningru> jeff303: do you know how to program in js?
[05:30] <GameOver> will do shadyman
[05:30] <phiber_optic> is there a way to link it to xmms to make it play or stop?
[05:30] <tritium> jclinton: my words were clear.
[05:30] <poningru> jeff303: you can do it using greasemonkey
[05:30] <GameOver> brb
[05:30] <jeff303> poningru: thanks
[05:30] <jclinton> tritium: you need to reparse the conversation because you don't have all the context
[05:30] <Bobby> Hello there :)
[05:30] <Shadyman> GameOver: Also, there should be a directory, either /etc/default/hotkeys, /etc/hotkeys, /usr/share/hotkeys, something like that
[05:30] <_jason> Orborde, no, I don't.  I've only figured out how to do that recently and I am used to windows key opening a terminal now.  But I did just try and verified that things like 'run dialog' opens with windows+F2
[05:31] <Bobby> Hello everyone! :) I have a question about dual monitors. Can someone help?
[05:31] <Shadyman> GameOver: This will have all the configuration files, as well as keyboard definitions
[05:31] <jclinton> phiber_optic: XMMS doesn't know about those shortcuts
[05:31] <phiber_optic> jrclinton is there a way to link it to xmms to make it play or stop?
[05:31] <Shadyman> Bobby: Ask :)
[05:31] <BigDaddy> Evening all
[05:31] <phiber_optic> is there a way i could make them work?
[05:31] <Shadyman> phiber_optic: Yes. xmms --help
[05:31] <Orborde> _jason: Okay, X is going down.
[05:31] <poningru> nalioth: not fair dude
[05:31] <tritium> jclinton: I saw enough.
[05:31] <Bobby> Shadyman: I am using a 7800GTX. I installed the latest nvidia drivers fine, but i want to get dual monitors working.
[05:31] <poningru> nalioth: seriously he just doesnt know about us thats all
[05:32] <poningru> nalioth: he just doesnt know good support practice
[05:32] <Shadyman> Bobby: I meant, ask the room, and see what happens. I don't know, personally. Sorry :)
[05:32] <BigDaddy> I have a quick quesion (hopefully) about partitions and Ubuntu. Anyone here familiar with this subject?
[05:32] <Bobby> ok, thanks anyway :)
[05:32] <theneonshadow> is ubuntu the only free shipping linux or is there more
[05:32] <PuMpErNiCkLe> BigDaddy: yeah, most of us
[05:32] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: Loads more.
[05:32] <BigDaddy> Sweet
[05:32] <phiber_optic> I mean to link my shortcuts?
[05:32] <nbound> can SATA drives have dma enabled using hdparm???
[05:32] <Jimmi_jones> got a seriously newb question if anyone has the patience.
[05:32] <Orborde> _jason: No cigar.
[05:32] <nalioth> Jimmi_jones: just ask
[05:32] <deicidus> can anyone help me get X running on my new dapper install?
[05:32] <nbound> Jimmi_jones, just ask it =)
[05:32] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: But this is the best out of the box, imho
[05:32] <BigDaddy> I hope this is not mentioned somewhere I haven't looked, but I could not find anything on linuxquestions.org
[05:33] <nbound> deicidus, startx ;)
[05:33] <_jason> Orborde, ah don't know then.  You may be able to hack around it by figuring out the command to lock the screen and just bind it to that
[05:33] <Jimmi_jones> I want to know how to change file associations, so that xmms is the default for internet radio and things like that
[05:33] <theneonshadow> shadyman: sweet. I could have gone and figure out alot of the things i've asked in here myself, but this is easier
[05:33] <theneonshadow> lol
[05:33] <Orborde> _jason: Well, do you happen to know the lock command...?
[05:33] <deicidus> nbound: it says "failed to start the X server (your graphical interface). it is likely that it is not set up correctly. would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?". when i did the xserver config thing, and then startx, it says "the x server is now disabled. restart gdm when it is configured correctly."
[05:33] <nitrocks> what is the application that will take output from a command line and put it right on your desktop background in gnome?
[05:33] <phiber_optic> jrclinton I mean to link my shortcuts?
[05:33] <_jason> Orborde, I don't
[05:33] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Jimmi_jones: Right-click -> properties -> open with
[05:33] <mkyb14> how do you enable the assistive technology preference magnifier... i can't figure it out or how to activate it.  i have all the required packages installed
[05:33] <BigDaddy> What I am wondering about is this: Lets say I make my hard drive with my windows installation two partions. One for Windows, one for Ubuntu
[05:33] <nbound> deicidus, have u installed any video drivers?
[05:34] <Orborde> _jason: w00t
[05:34] <_jason> Orborde, got it?
[05:34] <deicidus> nbound: nope, its a fresh install. breezy worked fine.
[05:34] <BigDaddy> If for some reason I decide to remove my Ubuntu partition, can I resize the Windows partition back to the entire HD volume?
[05:34] <nbound> Jimmi_jones, find a file with the same extension (the .xxx bit) and goto properties one of the tabs on their does it ;)
[05:34] <theneonshadow> i installed windows media player using wine but i don't know where it went... :(
[05:35] <nbound> deicidus, have u viewed the output to see what the error is?
[05:35] <Jimmi_jones> thx will try
[05:35] <Orborde> _jason: Nope
[05:35] <deicidus> nbound, yeah its got a bunch of errors from mouse to video. want me to bring them up?
[05:35] <phiber_optic> jrclinton I mean to link my shortcuts?
[05:35] <BigDaddy> Does that question make sense?
[05:35] <PuMpErNiCkLe> BigDaddy: Probably, although I've never tried it.  If not, you can certainly reformat it from Windows and use it again.
[05:36] <PuMpErNiCkLe> (although as a separate driver)
[05:36] <nbound> deicidus, yeah pastebin them =)
[05:36] <PuMpErNiCkLe> *drive
[05:36] <BigDaddy> PuMpErNiCkLe - reformat the entire hard drive and reinstall Windows?
[05:36] <PuMpErNiCkLe> BigDaddy: No, only the linux partition.
[05:36] <BigDaddy> That is pretty much whatI was wanting to avoid
[05:36] <poningru> BigDaddy: what are you trying to do?
[05:36] <theneonshadow> bigdaddy: Windows is for sux0rs
[05:36] <nalioth> theneonshadow: please be polite
[05:36] <seadog409> theneonshadow: i think it went to /home/yourusername/.wine/ somewhere there should be the media player in c/program files/
[05:36] <BigDaddy> I do not want to get into a debate on the merits of OS'es
[05:37] <PuMpErNiCkLe> BigDaddy: And that's the pessimistic option... I'm pretty sure you can do what you want, I've just never done it.
[05:37] <theneonshadow> seadog409: thanks. It is!
[05:37] <BigDaddy> I have had several distro's installed before, because I really do wish to leave M$
[05:37] <poningru> BigDaddy: no one does what do you want to do?
[05:37] <phiber_optic> M$ucks
[05:37] <BigDaddy> But hinestly none of them "worked" so I went back to XP.
[05:38] <poningru> phiber_optic: seriously dude keep that kinda stuff out of here it kinda gets boring when people start arguing about that
[05:38] <Jimmi_jones> ok I am really sorry for this, but I go to a internet radio station locating site (with firefox) click on a link to a station and it automatically tries to open totem. Am I just having a dense moment? This is a clean install minus the xmms and thunderbird that was added.
[05:38] <BigDaddy> I have been hearing so many good things about Ubuntu (especially apt-get) from debian
[05:38] <Shadyman> BigDaddy: Ubuntu's the one that "worked" best for me, so far.
[05:38] <deicidus> nbound, i forgot what pastebin is, could you do that bot thing?
[05:38] <phiber_optic> why didnt ubuntu "worked" for you? bigdaddy?
[05:38] <BigDaddy> that is what I hear from so many
[05:38] <Shadyman> BigDaddy: Even a lot of the laptop features.
[05:38] <_jason> Orborde, got it: xscreensaver-command -lock
[05:38] <Shadyman> Ubotu: tell deicidus about pastebin
[05:38] <poningru> Jimmi_jones: whats wrong with that?
[05:38] <nalioth> Jimmi_jones: use vlc for listening to internet radio
[05:39] <BigDaddy> phiber_optic - I haven't installed it yet, I was refering to my old Red Hat, Mandrake, Mandriva installs
[05:39] <Orborde> _jason: Oops. I thought xscreensaver-command didn't exist on my system, but Lo, it does. X)
[05:39] <jvai> Bdaddy, i reinstalled like 8 tymes, learning all the while, w/ ubuntu
[05:39] <nbound> deicidus, yep just a tic
[05:39] <Shadyman> BigDaddy: ubuntu worked better for me than redhat :)
[05:39] <Jimmi_jones> totem says that it can't do it. vlc? I will try it, but how do I keep firefox from wanting to default to totem.
[05:39] <nbound> !pastebin
[05:39] <ubotu> pastebin is, like, totally, a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:39] <PuMpErNiCkLe> BigDaddy: Just from a quick glance at http://mlf.linux.rulez.org/mlf/ezaz/ntfsresize.html it looks like you can resize the XP partition to cover the linux one if you need to.
[05:39] <jvai> & ima noob
[05:39] <phiber_optic> BigDaddy, i've been in Redhat, Fedora, Mandrake and I've never seen something like ubuntu
[05:39] <phiber_optic> It just works...
[05:39] <BigDaddy> I just don't want to go through the hassle of reinstalling XP all over again...looking at it now phiber_optic
[05:39] <Shadyman> phiber_optic: Ditto
[05:39] <nbound> there u go deicidus
[05:40] <theneonshadow> is ubuntu really that much better?
[05:40] <phiber_optic> yeahh...
[05:40] <poningru> BigDaddy: what exactly do you want to do?
[05:40] <poningru> partition your hd?
[05:40] <BigDaddy> that is all I hear
[05:40] <phiber_optic> theoneshadow.. it all depends on tastes.. And ubuntu definetiley works for me
[05:40] <GameOver> shadyman: well i got the mute button to work
[05:40] <GameOver> lol
[05:40] <theneonshadow> yeah me too
[05:40] <GameOver> it only supports one hp keyboard
[05:40] <Orborde> _jason: Well, that works. Thanks.
[05:40] <theneonshadow> i just havnt used much linux other than this
[05:40] <phiber_optic> ive benn in 4 distros and ubuntu is my 5th im staying with it
[05:40] <_jason> Orborde, yw
[05:40] <GameOver> i guess its not mine
[05:40] <Bobby> Does anyone know how to enable dual monitors?
[05:41] <jvai> the only thing that i cant do w/ hoary vs xp, is play dvd disc, & view wmp files, but that's not major
[05:41] <theneonshadow> i think im sticking with ubuntu too
[05:41] <phiber_optic> game over I have an hp keyboard and mute
[05:41] <theneonshadow> i might play around wtih other oses though
[05:41] <phiber_optic> works
[05:41] <phiber_optic> also volume
[05:41] <poningru> Bobby: hold on
[05:41] <Bobby> k
[05:41] <BigDaddy> poningru - I just want to know that if I do not like Ubuntu that I will be able to reclaim that partition under windows XP
[05:41] <poningru> BigDaddy: yes
[05:41] <phiber_optic> Bigdaddy always
[05:41] <theneonshadow> how does dual booting work
[05:41] <jvai> i dl'd "hydra" 3 weeks ago
[05:42] <jvai> nmap bfore that
[05:42] <poningru> Bobby: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XineramaMultipleMonitors
[05:42] <Jimmi_jones> oh, well, will try again tomorrow. Thanks anyway, night.
[05:42] <jvai> & learning tcpdump
[05:42] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Bobby: http://www.granneman.com/techinfo/linux/installation/dualheadhowto.htm <--- this may help.
[05:42] <Bobby> lol... 2 different methods
[05:42] <Bobby> any way to know which is better?
[05:43] <poningru> what level of expertize?
[05:43] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Bobby: They're different... it's just personal preference.
[05:43] <Bobby> hmm.... whcih is easier?
[05:43] <BigDaddy> Say XP is on Partition A (100 GB, and I make a partition B for Ubuntu 100GB.  Try it out and for whatever reason, I don't like it. Can I make partition A 200 GB agian without reformating and reinstalling
[05:43] <BigDaddy> that is what I was trying to say earlier
[05:43] <phiber_optic> gameover where you able to make work forward and pause buttons on hp keyboard?
[05:43] <nbound> deicidus, u done it yet?
[05:43] <Dr_Willis> BigDaddy,  theres tools that can resize existing xp partitiobns
[05:43] <GameOver> yes but its preset for xmms
[05:43] <poningru> Bobby: if you are just starting out with linux and dont know enough about it try xinerama
[05:43] <GameOver> for some reason
[05:44] <phiber_optic> Yeah you would be able... I think you could use some tools to resize
[05:44] <BigDaddy> Dr_Willis - any recommendations?
[05:44] <Bobby> ok
[05:44] <phiber_optic> your existing partitions
[05:44] <Shadyman> GameOver: There's a config file where you set all the commands for it
[05:44] <poningru> BigDaddy: you can use the rescue cd and gparted to do that
[05:44] <Dr_Willis> BigDaddy,  other then delete xp :P and use linux.
[05:44] <BigDaddy> I am looking at this link provided a few minutes ago. Sounds about right
[05:44] <GameOver> phiber_optic but i cant get the volume to work :(
[05:44] <Shadyman> GameOver: It might be /etc/Hotkeys?
[05:44] <phiber_optic> wow gameover...
[05:44] <poningru> BigDaddy: http://www.sysresccd.org/
[05:44] <phiber_optic> my volume works...
[05:44] <poningru> GameOver: here do this
[05:44] <phiber_optic> But stop an other buttons doesnt work
[05:45] <poningru> GameOver: go to system->pref->keyboard shortcuts
[05:45] <Dr_Willis> BigDaddy, the url poningru  gave you - has a "must have" live cd - that should be part of every toolkit.
[05:45] <Shadyman> poningru: GameOver's on Kubuntu
[05:45] <poningru> oh my bad
[05:45] <GameOver> that i am
[05:45] <phiber_optic> oohh
[05:45] <BigDaddy> poningru - that sounds like exactly what I was wanting
[05:45] <Shadyman> poningru: Not bad, just, different for kubuntu :)
[05:46] <phiber_optic> I couldnt help you
[05:46] <Bobby> Hmmm....... whenever i try one of those files (like /etc/X11/XF86Config-4) it says it doesnt exist
[05:46] <BigDaddy> Dr_Willis - I can see why. Very impressive
[05:46] <GameOver> pningru... guess i cant do it in kubuntu then>?
[05:46] <poningru> Bobby: hmm hold on
[05:46] <deicidus> nbound, sent but i sent it by you not to you... that button wasnt intuitive.
[05:46] <phiber_optic> poningru is there a way I could configure my buttons to make it work for xmms?
[05:46] <Shadyman> GameOver: Nope, that's why we're doing it with the hotkeys package ;)
[05:46] <poningru> GameOver: yes you can just find the keyboard shortcut
[05:46] <deicidus> nbound, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7239
[05:46] <poningru> well not sure
[05:46] <poningru> Bobby: what site did I send you to?
[05:46] <Shadyman> poningru: IIRC, it doesnt' recognize the hotkeys correctly.
[05:46] <Shadyman> poningru: But that could just be me
[05:47] <phiber_optic> poningru is there a way I could configure my buttons to make it work for xmms???
[05:47] <Bobby> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XineramaMultipleMonitors
[05:47] <poningru> phiber_optic: hmm it should recognize the default gnome settings
[05:47] <Syco54645> can anyone give me some help on pinning, the guide isnt working for me
[05:47] <poningru> phiber_optic: go into keyboard shortcuts and change the play pause thing in there
[05:47] <phiber_optic> ok
[05:47] <phiber_optic> hold on
[05:47] <poningru> Bobby: hmm hold on let me see
[05:47] <BigDaddy> Dr_Willis, poningru, PuMpErNiCkLe - thank you for the info. Really good stuff here. I havea already order my CD's and will most likely give t a whirl. I must say that I don't remember using GRUB before, I think I have only used Lilo
[05:47] <nbound> nbound, sent but i sent it by you not to you... that button wasnt intuitive. <--- errrr, deicidus
[05:47] <rixth> How can i stop the install process from checking the MD5's of packages?
[05:48] <Shadyman> rixith: IIRC, there should be an option to "check or skip"
[05:48] <poningru> Bobby: for you its the first one
[05:48] <deicidus> nbound: what?
[05:48] <nbound> deicidus, i dont get what u typed
[05:48] <poningru> Bobby: /etc/X11/Xorg.conf
[05:48] <GameOver> what do u guys suggest as the best video player for both files and web broswer for streaming and stuff?
[05:48] <nbound> deicidus, as for the error try reconfiguring x
[05:48] <Bobby> pon: but it still says it doesnt exist when i enter it in Terminal
[05:48] <deicidus> nbound, well if you can see my pastebin nvm
[05:48] <BigDaddy> OH, one last thing. File Managers under Ubuntu. Does anyone know of a file manager similar to xplorer2 for linux?
[05:48] <nbound> ubotu tell deicidus about xorg
[05:49] <poningru> Bobby: hmm that cant be right
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> never heard of xplorer2 :P
[05:49] <poningru> Bobby: what did you enter in the terminal?
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> but theres dozens of different ifle managers out
[05:49] <BigDaddy> http://zabkat.com/x2support.htm
[05:49] <jclinton> BigDaddy: the best two file managers are konqueror and nautilus
[05:49] <rixth> Shadyman, I didn't see it?
[05:49] <Bobby> dan@ubuntu:~$ /etc/X11/Xorg.conf
[05:49] <Bobby> bash: /etc/X11/Xorg.conf: No such file or directory
[05:49] <BigDaddy> it is a dual pane file manager with a tree view as well
[05:49] <Shadyman> rixth: Maybe it's my bad.
[05:49] <poningru> Bobby: hold on
[05:49] <poningru> doh
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> I perfer good old 2 Pane File Managers. :P
[05:49] <Bobby> ?
[05:49] <deicidus> nbound, i did that, then did startx again, and it gave an error about gdm
[05:50] <phiber_optic> poningru after I changer it doesnt work on xmms :(
[05:50] <poningru> Bobby: its /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:50] <deicidus> nbound unless im misunderstanding one of the setting screens in the config utility
[05:50] <nalioth> BigDaddy: apt-cache search manager
[05:50] <BigDaddy> bad link - http://
[05:50] <linux_user400354> Is there an open ssh server that will run on windows?
[05:50] <nbound> deicidus, why are you using dapper anyway?
[05:50] <poningru> Bobby: the problem was the capital X on Xorg.conf
[05:50] <Bobby> ah
[05:50] <nalioth> linux_user400354: google 'cygwin'
[05:50] <jclinton> linux_user400354: cygwin
[05:50] <deicidus> nbound because my airport extreme card wont work in breezy
[05:50] <BigDaddy> lol, that was a bad link, http://zabkat.com
[05:50] <BigDaddy> that is one app that I cannot live without in Windows
[05:51] <nbound> deicidus, what makes you think it will work in dapper?
[05:51] <Bobby> pon: so i do this?   gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:51] <phiber_optic> poningru after I changer it doesnt work on xmms :(
[05:51] <poningru> Bobby: first back it up
[05:51] <deicidus> nbound, some other people in here said it probably would, and i read tons on the forums, and it actually recognizes the device but i think i just need to tinker a little to get it to completely connect
[05:51] <poningru> Bobby: cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.backup
[05:51] <Bobby> is xorg.conf.backup ok?
[05:51] <deicidus> nbound, its just hard to do that with no gui
[05:51] <Bobby> ah
[05:51] <poningru> phiber_optic: hold on
[05:52] <poningru> Bobby: yeah thats fine
[05:52] <phiber_optic> sure
[05:52] <Syco54645> poningru: .bak is sufficient
[05:52] <BigDaddy> anyine here ever heard of Kruiser File Manager?
[05:52] <Bobby> pon, it says permission denied
[05:52] <nbound> deicidus, heh, dapper is still unstable, thats why u'll get weird errors like that, and u are guaranteed more, either wait, or find a work around
[05:52] <poningru> Bobby: sorry add a sudo in front of it
[05:52] <nbound> !dapper
[05:52] <ubotu> The 6.04 version of Ubuntu will be called the "Dapper Drake" release. Release date April 20, 2006. Not before. It is NOT ready for use.  Use it at your _own_ risk, when it breaks you need to be able to fix it yourself.
[05:52] <k3Rn> hallo!
[05:53] <k3Rn> ich habe hier ein problem
[05:53] <nbound> !de
[05:53] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu und Kubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de resp. #kubuntu-de
[05:53] <Bobby> pon: ok, now   gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf  ??
[05:53] <poningru> Bobby: yeah except add a sudo in front of that
[05:54] <KrulleTrap> .de sleeps :-)
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> Snell! Strudle!
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> :P
[05:54] <_jason> Bobby, precede it with sudo, like: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> Leider Hosen!
[05:54] <deicidus> that sort of warning would have been much more helpful before i started
[05:54] <BigDaddy> Ich spreche keine Duetch
[05:54] <deicidus> well ill install breezy again and upgrade again, that seemed to work last time
[05:54] <Bobby> ok, the file is up... but i'm still not sure how to edit it
[05:54] <nbound> u speak some german =P
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> :)
[05:54] <BigDaddy> 14 years ago in High School
[05:54] <poningru> Bobby: you mean what to edit?
[05:54] <theneonshadow> im bored! QUICK gimme somthing fun todo
[05:54] <BigDaddy> enuff to know I forgot it all almost
[05:54] <Bobby> pon, dont i have to edit it?
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> theneonshadow,  go to www.imboard.com
[05:55] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: Juggle mouse balls
[05:55] <theneonshadow> shadyman: hm... i have enough mouses for that too
[05:55] <nbound> BigDaddy, i speak a little too, but only what ive learnt myself
[05:55] <k3Rn> i while installing a linux system on my computer i loaded GRUB bootmanger onto my windows hard disc. i now wanna remove grub from it - restore my boot record so that windows boots when i boot from that drive
[05:55] <theneonshadow> shadyman: if that didnt sounds oh so wrong
[05:55] <k3Rn> can anyone here help me with that?
[05:55] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: I know, I know.
[05:55] <nbound> k3Rn, you want it to boot back into windows instead of ubuntu?
[05:56] <phiber_optic> which is better rythmbox or xmms?
[05:56] <BigDaddy> Well, it is almost 12 here. Thanks again for the help people. I will probably be back in a few days when my CD's arrive for maassive amounts of help!
[05:56] <Shadyman> k3Rn: You should be able to use your Windows cd's recovery console to rewrite the MBR
[05:56] <nbound> phiber_optic, xmms
[05:56] <Shadyman> BigDaddy: See you then!
[05:56] <BigDaddy> later
[05:56] <theneonshadow> WHY DO NONE OF THE LINKS IN THESE CHATROOMS OPEN THE BROWSER
[05:56] <phiber_optic> whats the difference?
[05:56] <nbound> Shadyman, thats what i was gonna say =(
[05:56] <theneonshadow> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhh
[05:56] <NCLife> hi, i want to install gdesklets and id like to know if there is a how-to for it somewhere
[05:56] <tritium> theneonshadow: stop that, please
[05:56] <stat> theneonshadow, right-click?
[05:56] <k3Rn> Shadowline yea i thought about that - i don't have my win cd here - so i am thinking about what i could do else?
[05:56] <nbound> theneonshadow, right click ;)
[05:56] <jclinton> phiber_optic: XMMS hasn't been updated in several years and lacks a number of features
[05:56] <k3Rn> is there no other way?
[05:56] <theneonshadow> i tried
[05:56] <NCLife> id searched on the wiki and on the forum but didnt find anything
[05:56] <theneonshadow> tritium: its not like i was flooding the screen, it was 2 lines chill out
[05:57] <phiber_optic> yeah i hate that u cannot search
[05:57] <phiber_optic> and u dont have a library
[05:57] <nbound> theneonshadow, right click -> firefox -> open in new tab/window
[05:57] <deicidus> phiber_optic, well im not sure but affaik rhythmbox has a simple gtk interface, a library, and is like itunes. xmms is more graphical and is like winamp.
[05:57] <magez> someone could help me??? =)
[05:57] <Bobby> pon, are you still there?
[05:57] <theneonshadow> nbound: yes yes i know but i dont WANT to do it that way... i always do though
[05:57] <linux_user400354> will the ssh server in cygwin let me view and modify files on windows ntfs partitions?
[05:57] <tritium> theneonshadow: you were using all caps, and repeating a single character
[05:57] <phiber_optic> i used to like itunes
[05:57] <phiber_optic> in windblows...
[05:57] <Shadyman> deicidus: Yes. Rhythmbox is almost exactly like itunes, except without the blatant promotion of itunes music store
[05:58] <theneonshadow> tritium: so?
[05:58] <tritium> theneonshadow: so I asked you to stop.
[05:58] <Shadyman> deicidus: XMMS is a clone of Winamp
[05:58] <linux_user400354> phiber_optic you can use itunes in ubuntu. the howto is under restricted formats in the user documentation.
[05:58] <nbound> without the kewl 3d thing with the camel =(
[05:58] <robotgeek> phiber_optic, take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:58] <phiber_optic> what u mean linuxuser?
[05:58] <deicidus> phiber_optics: yeah i liked it too, except that its really slow with videos.
[05:58] <theneonshadow> tritium: and i did, i just don't see why it bothers you so much, and it wasnt ALL caps, just all but the last 2 chariters :p
[05:59] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: That's a downhill battle. I'd just give it up, IMHO
[05:59] <nbound> theneonshadow, what u did wasnt that bad, but dont do it again ;)
[05:59] <theneonshadow> nbound: i'm not gonna
[05:59] <theneonshadow> Shadyman: yeah im just testing
[05:59] <linux_user400354> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats#head-3b21b161513c49f26dac2aaca9afd8f64e21aaaa
[05:59] <linux_user400354> phiber, go there
[05:59] <AF_Vet> I've got a noto so quick question.. I just installed Ubuntu on a relatively virgin box.. Via chipset onboard video.. now I can't get out of 640x480 res and the refresh rate is all screwed and the Xwin desktop is all screwey.. anyone have suggestions or clues of what I might do or where I might go?
[05:59] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: I wouldn't test too hard.
[05:59] <theneonshadow> shadyman: im done
[05:59] <tritium> remind me not to ask nicely
[06:00] <phiber_optic> so u guys suggest i should stay with rythmbox?
[06:00] <deicidus> why would you install itunes when you have rhythmbox? rhythmbox seems so much cleaner and faster
[06:00] <brenner> ubotu: tell AF_Vet about fixres
[06:00] <Shadyman> phiber_optic: It depends what you want.
[06:00] <theneonshadow> tritium: sorry by the way, just had too much sugar today and too little adhd meds
[06:00] <phiber_optic> I would stay with rythmbox
[06:00] <Shadyman> deicidus: Rhythmbox is better than itunes. Itunes freezes every time it tries to access an ipod.
[06:00] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell theneonshadow about coc
[06:00] <AF_Vet> thanks brenner
[06:00] <phiber_optic> but I also used to like xmms
[06:00] <nbound> AF_Vet, reconfigure x
[06:00] <deicidus> phiber_optic, i would try both for a few minutes each and see which you like. im probably going to use rhythmbox but im not sure yet.
[06:00] <tritium> theneonshadow: no worries, buddy :)
[06:01] <Corrupter> ok, what exactly IS dapper?
[06:01] <Shadyman> !dapper
[06:01] <nbound> !dapper
[06:01] <ubotu> The 6.04 version of Ubuntu will be called the "Dapper Drake" release. Release date April 20, 2006. Not before. It is NOT ready for use.  Use it at your _own_ risk, when it breaks you need to be able to fix it yourself.
[06:01] <Shadyman> nbound: Too slow :)
[06:01] <nbound> =(
[06:01] <theneonshadow> are you seriosuly telling me there is a rule in the coc agenst using the same chariter more than once in all caps?
[06:01] <lysis> it won't let me take a screenshot
[06:01] <lysis> any recommendations?
[06:01] <deicidus> i have a love/hate relationship with dapper
[06:01] <Corrupter> ah
[06:01] <tritium> theneonshadow: no
[06:01] <nbound> lysis, printscreen key
[06:02] <lysis> yep me too. =)
[06:02] <tritium> such a rule would be a bit much
[06:02] <Felix15> Hey, I purchased a new monitor, but the system will not let me increase my resolution beyond the old monitor's max.  Does anybody know how to fix this?
[06:02] <theneonshadow> tritium: well good, cuz im not going through that whole thing... im not THAT hyper
[06:02] <nbound> Shadyman, only if u wanna ship it all the way from good old canada to australia ;)
[06:02] <robotgeek> theneonshadow: i just felt that it might have been offensive, so i tht i'll remind you.
[06:02] <lysis> nbound, it doesn't work.
[06:02] <brenner> ubotu: tell Felix15 about fixres
[06:02] <robotgeek> nvm
[06:03] <theneonshadow> shadyman: whao how'd you do that * thing with the offering caffeine? i want cyber caffeine!
[06:03] <nbound> ;)
[06:03] <Shadyman> theneonshadow: It's a secret.
[06:03] <frazmanw> For some reason install fails on this computer (with SATA drives) but etc3, jfs xfs work, I am not sure why, but XFS and JFS are good too I have heard. Which shouuld I use?
[06:03] <theneonshadow> robotgeek: yeah i understand. It prolly was. Being off adhd meds makes me a little less thinging
[06:03] <Bobby> poningru: are you there?
[06:04] <theneonshadow> shadyman: :( please?
[06:04] <theneonshadow> shadyman: tell me in a pm!
[06:04] <nbound> frazmanw, it shouldnt =S
[06:04] <Felix15> I tried running the autodetection script, but after restarting, it crashed horribly and I had to switch back to the original xorg.conf file
[06:04] <nbound> Felix15, reconfigure x
[06:04] <nbound> ubotu tell Felix15 about xorg
[06:04] <robotgeek> theneonshadow: sorry, i misunderstood the situation. i tht u meant tritium. i need sleep
[06:05] <theneonshadow> robotgeek: its all cool
[06:05] <brenner> Felix15: what script?
[06:05] <theneonshadow> nbound: lol... what?? lol
[06:05] <frazmanw> nbound (10 installs failed with reiserfs tells me it may have run out of room in VAR directory, however I have set it up as 1 Gig swap, reiserfs 40 gig / dir, and 109 G /home
[06:05] <theneonshadow> YES
[06:05] <phiber_optic> are there any equalizer presets for Rythmbox?
[06:05] <theneonshadow> I CNA DO IT!
[06:05] <theneonshadow> YESSS
[06:05] <theneonshadow> Shadyman = the best
[06:05] <nbound> theneonshadow,  /me <stuff here>
[06:06] <nbound> frazmanw,  wait u said it worked and with ext3 didnt u?
[06:06] <frazmanw> nbound: yes
[06:06] <phiber_optic> are there any equalizer presets for Rythmbox??
[06:07] <nbound> frazmanw, thats the default install, so whats the prob?
[06:07] <nbound> frazmanw, what else would u want to use and why?
[06:07] <frazmanw> nbound, aren't the other filesystems better, I have always used reiserfs
[06:07] <theneonshadow> nbound: haha what now! you have nothing ot hit me with
[06:08] <nbound> frazmanw, i dont know ive never used em, i always though ext3 was best... what advantages do they have?
[06:08] <nbound> theneonshadow, type in !offtopic
[06:09] <Felix15> Felix15: asdf
[06:09] <phiber_optic> does anyon know how to change the default player?
[06:09] <frazmanw> nbound, I am sure other people in here could answer that better than me, however I have always used reiserfs in Gentoo in the past, From what I understood it is faster with small files
[06:09] <theneonshadow> do yall have any idea how terrible those jack in the box tacos are
[06:09] <theneonshadow> its like death... only more annoying and bad tasting
[06:10] <nbound> frazmanw, hmmm... ill have to read up on this before my next reinstall =P
[06:10] <tritium> theneonshadow: truly I tell you, that is offtopic
[06:10] <nbound> !offtopic
[06:10] <ubotu> offtopic is probably Non-support discussions maybe carried out in #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[06:10] <Felix15> nbound: when in the configuration, what would be my "video card's bus identifier"  Its agp.  but the default says PCI:1:0:0
[06:10] <brenner> phiber_optic: use the open with tab in an mp3's properties thru nautilus
[06:10] <theneonshadow> tritium: sorry... what is the topic, Linux related questions/answers only?
[06:10] <crimsun> Felix15: that's because agp is nothing more than a glorified pci bus
[06:10] <frazmanw> Does anyone know which is better JFS or XFS file systems?
[06:11] <tritium> theneonshadow: ubuntu, more specifically ;)
[06:11] <nbound> Felix15, thats it, it counts it as a PCI bus
[06:11] <nbound> Felix15, it does the same with PCIE too
[06:11] <tritium> frazmanw: they each have pros/cons.  Like most choices, there are tradeoffs.
[06:11] <theneonshadow> tritium: you remind me of my trombone teacher
[06:11] <sam_> hi, ima having a problem accessing  a NTFS drive. can someone help
[06:11] <nbound> Seveas, can u kick him or something?
[06:11] <theneonshadow> where can i get the upgrade for firefox so that i can view wmv streams on webpages
[06:12] <nbound> theneonshadow, mozilla-mplayer
[06:12] <frazmanw> tritium: I have always used reiserfs, but it will not work correctly for some reason on this SATA setup on this machine so I am choosing a 2nd choice, any info for me?
[06:12] <glick> hey has anyone been havin trouble with the automounting of external firewire drives lately?
[06:12] <theneonshadow> nbound: sweet
[06:12] <Glacious> has anyone gotten Ubuntu to install onto a SATAII drive on a PCI SATA controller?
[06:12] <sam_> i do
[06:12] <brenner> sam_: what problem exactly?
[06:12] <tritium> frazmanw: not specifically.  I've only used ext3 and reiserfs journaling filesystems (I'll likely never use reiserfs again)
[06:13] <nbound> Glacious, most common sata controllers have drivers built in
[06:13] <sam_> basically, in the disk manager, the drive says inaccessable
[06:13] <phiber_optic> but that doesnt change the defautl
[06:13] <phiber_optic> it still opening with somehting else
[06:13] <sam_> i click enable and nothing
[06:13] <Glacious> nbound: using the 5.10 install/boot CD, it will not detect the SATA drive.
[06:13] <frazmanw> tririum, why you have issues with reiserfs?
[06:13] <nbound> glacious what model?
[06:13] <tritium> frazmanw: I've had serious corruption problems with it
[06:13] <brenner> sam_: chuck youer /etc/fstab content onto a pastebin
[06:14] <phiber_optic> anyone know any equalizer plugins for rythmbox?
[06:14] <sam_> whats the command for that?
[06:14] <sam_> thanks
[06:14] <frazmanw> tritium: never had those issues before. hmmm always worked perfect in other distros, and ubuntu on other machines
[06:14] <nbound> glacious also if u know what your doin u could try dapper
[06:14] <brenner> sam_: gedit /etc/fstab
[06:15] <tritium> frazmanw: just my personal take.  I'm not suggesting you avoid it.
[06:15] <jampdx> hey guys

[06:16] <tritium> sam_: pastebin next time, please
[06:16] <sam_> where is the pastebin
[06:16] <nbound> theneonshadow, if u associate windows exe's with it, it wont
[06:16] <nbound> !pastebin
[06:16] <ubotu> it has been said that pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[06:16] <jariep1_> how do I remove phpmyadmin, if it won't uninstall through adept?
[06:16] <nbound> Glacious, ill see what i can find
[06:16] <theneonshadow> k
[06:16] <phiber_optic> anyone know any equalizer plugins for rythmbox?
[06:16] <theneonshadow> nbound: sweet... it worked...
[06:16] <tritium> sam_: it's also listed in the channel topic
[06:16] <adub> in mplayer how can i make the video display bigger full screen still shows the video window bigger but the actual video stays the same size how can i change this??????
[06:16] <Glacious> nbound: excellent, thank you.
[06:16] <Felix15> thanks for the help all. about to see if it works :D
[06:17] <_jason> adub, change video output to 'xv'
[06:17] <Bobby> Hello everyone :)
[06:17] <theneonshadow> bobby: hello
[06:17] <Bobby> I have a newb question (sorry) :)
[06:17] <Bobby> ty :
[06:17] <Bobby> :)
[06:17] <theneonshadow> this is exaclly the place for newb questions
[06:17] <theneonshadow> i ask alot of them
[06:17] <nbound> Glacious, theres drivers and kernel source here http://www.promise.com/support/download/download2_eng.asp?category=all&os=100&productID=139
[06:18] <Bobby> do you know a lot about ubuntu, thene?
[06:18] <Foopub> How do you make a directory writable by "the web server" (Apache2)?
[06:18] <theneonshadow> bobby: me personally, no, but im in a class for it. But theres loads of cool peeps in here that are good with it
[06:18] <brenner> sam_: unless i'm mistaken, there aren't any ntfs partitions there.
[06:18] <nbound> Glacious, it might be hard gettin that to load in in install but =/
[06:18] <sam_> i think i did it
[06:18] <brenner> ubotu: tell sam_ about ntfs
[06:18] <theneonshadow> bobby: like nbound, he's helped alot that i've seen
[06:18] <tritium> theneonshadow: an ubuntu class?
[06:18] <Bobby> well, How to I install Firefox 1.5 on ubuntu?
[06:19] <GeorgeAScott> !diskmounter
[06:19] <ubotu> [diskmounter]  to automatically mount your ntfs, fat32 or hfs+ drives, download and read http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter
[06:19] <Glacious> nbound: yeah thats what i was thinking.  if it's not working during install, i can't get ubuntu on my desktop =(
[06:19] <brenner> sam_: check your pms
[06:19] <adub> _jason thanks how can i make the sound quality louder its feint
[06:19] <nbound> theneonshadow, hehe thanx =)
[06:19] <theneonshadow> Tritium: well no, not ubuntu, just linux in general.
[06:19] <timfrost> !ff1.5
[06:19] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[06:19] <phiber_optic> anyone know any equalizer plugins for rythmbox?
[06:19] <Glacious> nbound: just drool over the live CD for now, or install it on the slower IDE drive seconday.
[06:19] <_jason> adub, 9 and 0 change volume, if you need more 'man mplayer' and look for max software output or something like that
[06:20] <nbound> Glacious, does ur board have onboard sata?
[06:20] <theneonshadow> nbound: np :p
[06:20] <Glacious> nbound: no, just the PCI promise controller.
[06:20] <Bobby> thank you, ubotu :)
[06:20] <_jason> adub, -softvol-max is th option you want to look at
[06:21] <nbound> Glacious, damn =( , u could try dapper see if its install willrecognize it
[06:21] <theneonshadow> tritium: are there ubuntu classes?
[06:21] <_jason> adub, but really I've never had a need, are you sure your volume is up?  (double-click on the volume ivon by the clock and check pcm)
[06:21] <nbound> Glacious, but dapper is unstable still so wouldnt recommend unless u know what ur doin
[06:21] <tritium> theneonshadow: not that I am aware of.
[06:21] <Glacious> nbound: how unstable?
[06:21] <Foopub> I'm trying to figure out how to make a directory writable by the web server. Is there a group or user I need to give ownership? (I tried www-data already.)
[06:21] <sam_> in the diskmounter instructions, it says to save the file on the local hard disk, but where
[06:22] <adub> normalize sound option did it
[06:22] <GeorgeAScott> anywhere you want
[06:22] <theneonshadow> tritium: yeah i didn't think so
[06:22] <GeorgeAScott> you just have to type the full path
[06:22] <nbound> Glacious, it works, but u may run into problems, depending on ur setup etc., and other ones just because =P
[06:22] <GeorgeAScott> so don't save it anywhere where the path name is real long...
[06:22] <GeorgeAScott> well you could if you wanted to
[06:22] <brenner> sam_: anywhere, it's just a small script.  you can delete it later
[06:22] <sam_> i then type sudo bash diskmounter. no such file or directory
[06:23] <sam_> it's an html file
[06:23] <nbound> Glacious, for example a guy earlier tryed it, and it couldnt start xserver up
[06:23] <Glacious> nbound: i'll risk it.  as long as the boot loader goes in fine and i can still get to XP for those 'stupid programs' i need.
[06:23] <nbound> Glacious, use wine =P
[06:23] <Bobby> Hello :) Can someone help me to install Firefox 1.5?
[06:23] <nbound> !ff1.5
[06:23] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[06:23] <Knelix> Okay, so I installed the NVIDIA driver and control panel.  Questions: Where is the NVIDIA control panel and how do I get my monitor to a higher refresh rate than the resolution control panel lets me (I knowit  can do more than 60Hz.) ?
[06:24] <brenner> sam_: no.  it's a plain text bash script
[06:24] <Bobby> ubotu, i tried that, it gives me an error
[06:24] <ubotu> Bobby: Did you get hit by a windmill?
[06:24] <Bobby> ubotu, i tried that, it gives me an error
[06:24] <sam_> do i have to rename the file extension?
[06:24] <brenner> sam_: you have to type that command in the dir where you saved the file
[06:24] <Bobby> ubotu, i tried that, it gives me an error
[06:24] <theneonshadow> ok i'm out y'all!! c ya
[06:24] <nbound> Bobby, ubotu is a bot
[06:24] <nbound> theneonshadow, cya
[06:24] <theneonshadow> bobby: ubotu is a robot
[06:24] <brenner> sam_: no. linux FS don't depend on extensions to determine filteype
[06:24] <Bobby> ah, ok
[06:24] <nbound> Bobby, i made him say what he said
[06:25] <nbound> !ff1.5
[06:25] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[06:25] <nbound> hehe
[06:25] <Glacious> nbound: i'll grab dapper now and just see if it even detects the SATA.  if it does, at least i have something to look forward to later :)
[06:25] <Bobby> nbound, so you know?
[06:25] <nbound> Bobby, not a clue, whats wrong with what ur using atm anyway
[06:25] <nbound> Glacious, good luck =)
[06:25] <Bobby> nbound, its an older version, and slower too
[06:26] <Shadyman> How come i can't edit tags from within Rhythmbox?
[06:26] <nbound> Bobby, slower? that depends on ur connection speed
[06:26] <sam_> for firefox run these 2 lines - wget http://beerorkid.com/automatix/automatix-ubuntu_4.4-2_i386.deb
[06:26] <sam_> sudo dpkg -i automatix-ubuntu_4.4-2_i386.deb
[06:26] <brenner> Shadyman: b/c they didn't include a tag editor
[06:26] <Glacious> nbound: thank you :)
[06:26] <Bobby> nbound, no, i mean rendering speed
[06:27] <nbound> Bobby, u can speed that up, google: speed up firefox
[06:27] <tomkelleher> hey guys, whats this nubuntu I've read about
[06:27] <Bobby> nbound, but there are extensions i want to use with v1.5
[06:27] <theneonshadow> k bak... :( where is the C;/program files. dir for wine
[06:28] <brenner> Shadyman: try easytag or mp3info-gtk
[06:28] <theneonshadow> i cant find the wine directory at all
[06:28] <nbound> Bobby, wait till dapper then =P , what extensions u need anyway?
[06:28] <Bobby> nbound: from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion "For some reason, the mozilla.com build of Firefox is significantly faster than the default Ubuntu one. Firefox 1.5 is even faster, and has many new features."
[06:28] <nbound> theneonshadow, u ran winecfg?
[06:28] <Bobby> a whole bunch
[06:28] <theneonshadow> yeah
[06:28] <theneonshadow> nbound: yea
[06:28] <Shadyman> brenner: thx
[06:29] <brenner> sam_: did you mount your partition/s?
[06:29] <tritium> theneonshadow: perhaps you'd find using winetools from winehq.com easier thanw winecfg
[06:29] <sam_> yes
[06:29] <nbound> theneonshadow, , ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/
[06:29] <Glacious> wheres the best place to get the latest dapper install cD?
[06:29] <theneonshadow> nbound: ahhh that worked
[06:29] <Shadyman> brenner: The play count and Last Played date don't show up on Rhythmbox either. Is it not supported yet?
[06:29] <nbound> Glacious, any of the ubuntu mirrors
[06:29] <sam_> but they seem inaccessable through disk in administration
[06:29] <brenner> sam_: ok cool.  what are you doing now?
[06:30] <crimsun> Glacious: http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2006-January/000048.html
[06:30] <nbound> theneonshadow,  .wine is a hidden folder in ur home directory and that ~ = /home/<your name>/
[06:30] <Glacious> crimsun: thanks
[06:30] <Foopub> What do you guys recommend as a mailserver?
[06:30] <brenner> Shadyman: it is.  edit > prefs
[06:30] <Glacious> nbound: got it
[06:30] <theneonshadow> yeah i got it
[06:30] <sam_> ubuntu can't seem to access the drive
[06:31] <theneonshadow> nbound: i just did a search under what you typed before and it found it
[06:31] <nbound> theneonshadow, if u enable hidden folders u can even goto it in nautilus instead of terminal
[06:31] <theneonshadow> nbound: oh, good idea
[06:31] <brenner> sam_: paste your /etc/fstab again. to a PASTEBIN. :)
[06:31] <nbound> theneonshadow, hehe ;) remember use appdb if a game doesnt work properly its invaluable
[06:32] <theneonshadow> it gives me a weird message when i try to use winecfg: fixme:jack:JACK_drvLoad error loading the jack library libjack.so, please install this library to use jack
[06:32] <theneonshadow> i didnt try to use any 'Jack'
[06:32] <crimsun> check your config file for wine
[06:33] <nbound> AHHHH all my rightclick open in webbrowser clicks open it ina browser called galleon =S
[06:33] <bimberi> !flight3 is <reply> Dapper Flight CD 3 is ready - http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2006-January/000048.html
[06:33] <ubotu> bimberi: okay
[06:33] <brenner> Shadyman: wanna try out a bug i found in rythmbox?  try resizing any of the columns.
[06:33] <theneonshadow> nbound: you lost me
[06:34] <theneonshadow> brenner: thats in intersting name
[06:34] <Foopub> Can anyone see this at all? I haven't gotten a response for an hour.
[06:34] <sam_> pasted
[06:34] <nbound> theneonshadow, lol sorry, what did u set ur sound to in winecfg
[06:34] <Shadyman> Foopub: Yep
[06:34] <theneonshadow> nbound: psh i dunno
[06:34] <bimberi> Foopub: no :)
[06:34] <nbound> theneonshadow, set it to oss or alsa (oss gives best results for me but ymmv)
[06:34] <brenner> theneonshadow: ta
[06:35] <Foopub> bimberi: How do I fix that?
[06:35] <sam_> i get this message when trying to access the drive-->>mount: /dev/hde1 already mounted or /media/hde1 busy
[06:35] <bimberi> Foopub: i was joking ...
[06:35] <Foopub> bimberi: Me too
[06:35] <bimberi> Foopub: phew, you had me worried :P
[06:35] <theneonshadow> nbound alrighty
[06:36] <bimberi> Foopub: i've seen dovecot recommended a bit
[06:36] <nbound> sam_, unmount then remount it
[06:36] <nbound> also if its a cd try to ejject it
[06:36] <nbound> eject*
[06:37] <Foopub> bimberi: Hmm, OK. I've never heard of it. Is it widely used?
[06:37] <ilba7r> any one know of a link that have goals/ packages and status of Dapper. Other than just cosmetics change?
[06:37] <Foopub> I'm sort of looking for the Apache of mail servers.
[06:37] <adriyel> then use apache
[06:37] <nbound> theneonshadow, sif they didnt know that ; P
[06:37] <frazmanw> I think I may be missing a library or something, I have the regular ubuntu sounds but don't get sound in any little linux games. ie. supertux, pingus, chromium. any ideas
[06:37] <Foopub> adriyel: Apache is a mail server now?
[06:37] <sam_> i can't, it sayd it's not mounted
[06:37] <theneonshadow> nbound: you solved the weird error message!
[06:37] <Bobby> Where is package manager in ubuntu?
[06:38] <adriyel> Foopub, whoa
[06:38] <adriyel> Foopub, woops, brain fart
[06:38] <ilba7r> Bobby, synaptic
[06:38] <adriyel> Foopub, its 1am where I am
[06:38] <Bobby> under what?
[06:38] <nalioth> ubotu: tell Bobby about apt-get
[06:38] <adriyel> Foopub, darn, I need sleep
[06:38] <pansonic> i need to set my horizontal & vertical settings for my monitor - which file do i edit
[06:38] <Foopub> adriyel: OK. :)
[06:38] <nalioth> Bobby: look to your private msgs
[06:38] <theneonshadow> nbound: what would happen if i just enabled all the sound drivers? would that be ok?
[06:38] <ilba7r> Bobby, system>administration but you can type gksudo synaptic in a terminal
[06:38] <nbound> theneonshadow, yeah, but u'll get that msg again AND it will run slower
[06:39] <theneonshadow> nbound: i'll take that as a no
[06:39] <nbound> theneonshadow, just use OSS its fast and it works =P
[06:39] <brenner> pansonic: as in sync rates?  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:39] <theneonshadow> nbound: kk
[06:39] <nbound> brenner why did u ask me if it was the original gta3
[06:40] <bimberi> Foopub: unsure of dovecot usage sorry
[06:40] <pansonic> brenner yes synch rATES
[06:40] <theneonshadow> nbound: is there a way to make it tell me all the windows type programs installed or od i have to go to the c:/program files/ to find that out
[06:41] <nbound> theneonshadow, not afaik

[06:43] <SlashX1896> hey all.. i had to get rid of ubuntu =\ i couldnt get internet on it w/o wireless... and i d ont get my new router for a week... i d die without interent for a week
[06:43] <Glacious> is it possible (or even remotely easy) to build a Ubuntu installation on an ATA drive, compile SATA support into the kernel, move it to a SATA drive, and boot it?
[06:43] <theneonshadow> nbound swwwwwwweet
[06:43] <SlashX1896> When i get a new router im gonna need to learn how to dual boot
[06:44] <joseph> I don't understand man visudo
[06:44] <nbound> Glacious, possible id say so, remotely easy i highly doubt it
[06:44] <nalioth> Glacious: ubuntu has sata support by default
[06:44] <Glacious> nalioth: not for PCI Promise controllers
[06:44] <Glacious> at least not in 5.10
[06:44] <nbound> nalioth, not all sata controllers
[06:45] <Shadyman> night all
[06:45] <nalioth> Glacious: ah, yes, the problematic controller issue...
[06:45] <White_Lightning> hey I have a dual-boot machine, can I access my linux drive when running windows?
[06:45] <geneo93> crimsun:  are you around
[06:45] <sam_> any reason why i would have mounting problems with an ntfs drive
[06:45] <Glacious> nalioth: Promise SATA300TX2plus, doesn't detect any SATA drives.
[06:45] <theneonshadow> nbound: ahhh, i cant find that stupid c:/program files again
[06:45] <crimsun> geneo93: pong
[06:45] <White_Lightning> NTFS doesn't work well with linux
[06:45] <White_Lightning> FAT32 does
