[11:48] <powner> well u got me, i usually just try an rmmod/modprobe after that
[11:48] <Ward1983> powner, will try thanx
[11:48] <perlsyntax> does anyone know is this card will work?
[11:49] <powner> check the dmesg when you do - for any weirdness that may require reboot
[11:49] <white-sheep> Anybody here experienced with LVM?
[11:50] <white-sheep> I'm trying to rename few VG + LV
[11:50] <Ward1983> powner, still nothing :s
[11:51] <Ward1983> powner, its just a RTL8187, allways worked
[11:51] <Commie_Cary> is there a verison of ubuntu for the N810
[11:52] <powner> i do see a related driver issue still marked as new
[11:52] <powner> #286681, scanning fails after first association
[11:52] <oCean_> white-sheep: well, there's vgrename I think
[11:53] <emma> Say you have openoffice running on the windows side of your laptop. Say you have saved openoffice documents on the windows partition. If while booted into Ubuntu you mount the windows partition, can you copy those openoffice documents over to the home directory without compromising them?
[11:54] <powner> do you get "Operation not supported" anywhere
[11:54] <powner> ward1983
[11:54] <achadwick> Commie_Cary: No (IIRC, no ARM ports of any kind). But you have Debian and Android as alternatives. Personally I think OS2008 is fine.
[11:54] <Ward1983> powner, nope
[11:55] <powner> which driver are you using?
[11:55] <Ward1983> achadwick, you can run ubuntu on ARM devices aswell
[11:55] <oCean_> powner: why not using nicks before typing message?
[11:55] <powner> cos i'm a newb
[11:55] <powner> oCean_: =P
[11:56] <powner> oCean_: seems so quiet in here, never figured i'd need it
[11:56] <oCean_> powner: ah well, you seem to get the hang of it :) It makes the channel more readable
[11:57] <pwuertz> any idea why I can't run ssh forwarded X11 applications on a particular machine? I'm getting "Error: Can't open display: localhost:10.0"... I already copied the sshd_config from another working ubuntu machine to the not-working machine but it's still not working...
[11:57] <Ward1983> Commie_Cary, http://leapster.org/linux/armbuntu/
[11:57] <Ward1983> Commie_Cary, dont try it if you are new to linux
[11:57] <achadwick> Commie_Cary, Ward1983: quite so. Ignore me.
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[11:57] <Ward1983> achadwick, no problem its just not widely known
[11:57] <oCean_> pwuertz: type "xhost +" before you start your ssh session
[11:57] <tsairox> anybody here got an hdmi graphics card working?
[11:58] <pwuertz> the DISPLAY string localhost:10.0 seems to be fine, thats what I'm getting an any other remote system
[11:58] <Ward1983> Commie_Cary, debian's ARM port is a better choice though imo, i had that myself on my PDA and it worked very nicely
[11:58] <quibbler> ActionParsnip, ahhh the getto santa, hi
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> guys, if a window of an app is minimised, does the x server still draw it so it is ready for maximisation or is it only drawn when it is maximised?
[11:58] <pwuertz> oCean_: does not fix :/
[11:58] <shams_> hi there
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> hi shams_
[11:59] <shams_> i have some problems with my usb tv tuner Avertv volar ax. My distr is ubuntu 8.10 with kernel 2.6.27-9 on notebook. i can't my tv tuner work it out. Having googled for a week i have no option
[11:59] <shams_> can you help me with this plz
[11:59] <oCean_> oCean_: so you are on DISPLAY 10.0 ?
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> shams_: run lsusb, one line will identify the dvice, websearch for the identifier
[11:59] <onats> how can i burn onto a disc files from a network drive? is that possible?
[11:59] <seravitae> anyone here use bind/named
[11:59] <onats> any program suggestions?
[11:59] <hm1> which program lets me create the entries in /etc/fstab to always mount ntfs drives on boot?
[11:59] <oCean_> pwuertz: i typo'd "you are on display 10.0" ?
[12:00] <oCean_> pwuertz: locally you can start x applications? "e.g. xclock" ?
[12:00] <shams_> AVerMedia Technologies, Inc.
[12:00] <shams_>  no option in google
[12:00] <pwuertz> oCean_: no.. I think thats just the way sshd handles X11 forwards nowdays
[12:00] <pwuertz> sure ^^
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> onats: if you mount the network folder, yes sure
[12:00] <oCean_> pwuertz: no
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> onats: mount it with smbmount then you can access it like any other data on your system
[12:00] <powner> i'm interested in setting a framebuffer background and setting an offset to the text on my console, anyone?
[12:00] <pwuertz> oCean_: locally: DISPLAY=:0.0
[12:00] <prodigel> hi all. I'm searching for a magnification tool that can help me see flash movies in full screen mode. When using flash player maximize functionality it's slow, unwatchable.
[12:01] <oCean_> pwuertz: those are different things. You need to give the (remote) application 'access' to the xclient @your display
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> onats: i'd burn it as slow as you physically can as the data coming over the lan will be hugely slower than the burn so you need to give the data chance to come down the line
[12:01] <onats> ActionParsnip, somethings wrong though.. whenever i navigate into the mounted network drive, brasero/k3b closes/crashes...
[12:01] <powner> i remember seeing a nice gentoo one years ago - something like that - edges of my screen are a bit fuzzy sometimes
[12:01] <oCean_> pwuertz: so that is also your $DISPLAY?
[12:01] <_0x404> how enter to polish channel ??
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> onats: is it mounted with smbmount or do you mean smb://<servername>/<share>
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> !polish | _0x404
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> _0x404: /join #ubuntu-pl
[12:02] <_0x404> thanks
[12:02] <onats> ActionParsnip, via FTP
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> onats: then its not mounted
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> onats: you need to mount the ftp as a local folder
[12:02] <onats> ActionParsnip, can you point me to the right direction?
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> !mount | onats
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> onats: you could also wesearch: ubuntu mount ftp
[12:03] <jav> I'm trying to connect a SATA disk to my hardy machine ('hotswappping'). It is not popping up as a new /dev/sd* . does any one have any debugging tips?
[12:03] <oCean_> pwuertz: set your $DISPLAY to localhost:0.0, then use "ssh -X" into client machine
[12:03] <Ryan_Delaney> When playing music with foobar2000 in wine, the output sometimes crashes, locking up foobar and leaving behind a repetitive choppy sound that I can't make go away without restarting X. How can I find out what is making this annoying noise so I can make it stop without logging out?
[12:03] <onats> ok thanks.
[12:03] <onats> googling too
[12:03] <ickis> When delegating a domain to my own Ubuntu server, should I repeat the static ip in both dns name and ip?
[12:03] <jav> Ryan_Delaney: have you checked the sampling rate in winecfg?
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: check the appdb for compatibility, I'd ask in #wine for wine support
[12:04] <jav> Ryan_Delaney: that gave me a similar problem in spotify
[12:04] <harald1> why does it show harald1, when /whois haraldw shows, that it is me?
[12:04] <onats> ActionParsnip, is there a choice on the protocol on how i mount it? i believe SMB is slow?
[12:04] <Ryan_Delaney> jav: No. If that were the problem would it cause it to work 99% of the time with only occasional crashes?
[12:04] <Ryan_Delaney> Jav: Also, in the short term, how can I make this choppy noise go away?
[12:04] <lamba> what would be the correct way to apt-pin a repository which is local (given as deb file:/dir/path in sources file), i want any debs in that dir to override any other source
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> onats: its fine
[12:04] <jav> Ryan_Delaney: Dont know, havn't thorough about it carefully. That's the only tip that hits me.
[12:05] <jrib> harald1: /msg nickserv help ghost
[12:05] <Ryan_Delaney> jav: It seems to be related to pulse audio since I now can't get sound from any application
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: restart pulse
[12:05] <powner> kill pulse?
[12:05] <jav> Ryan_Delaney: Maybe experiment with  pasuspend and/or padsp
[12:05] <Ryan_Delaney> How?
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=13412
[12:05] <jrib> lamba: it's probably easier to just list them first in your sources.list and use sane versioning
[12:05] <Ryan_Delaney> jav: I run foobar2000 with padsp wine foobar2000.exe
[12:06] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: killall pulseaudio from userspace, i mean

[12:08] <lamba> jrib: unfortunately its really not. as this is all scripted.
[12:08] <ezerhoden> i see in xorg.conf that many things have been configured automagically. i am used to setting up this file myself. is there a way i can find out what values are associated with "Configured Monitor

[12:08] <ickis>  When delegating the hosting of a domain to my own Ubuntu server, should I repeat the static ip in both dns name and ip?

[12:09] <emrah> AA
[12:09] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: selinuxenabled &
[12:09] <powner> should return a PID if it is
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> Is mythbuntu an official release??
[12:10] <Ryan_Delaney> The program 'selinuxenabled' is currently not installed.
[12:10] <powner> yea it's not on
[12:10] <powner> exist status 1 means it's off
[12:11] <powner> well you could add yourself to rt-pulse
[12:11] <oCean_> powner: dude..
[12:11] <powner> oCean_: sry XD
[12:11] <jrib> lamba: I don't understand.  What exactly is all scripted?
[12:12] <Ryan_Delaney> What?
[12:12] <jrib> !pinning > lamba, in any case here is the documentation
[12:12] <jrib> ...
[12:12] <jrib> !pinning > lamba
[12:13] <Ryan_Delaney> powner: According to the users and groups app under administration, I am in group pulse-rt
[12:13] <_Andrew> pozic: yeah just type then arrow up/down
[12:13] <pozic> ezerhoden: oh, it does work, exactly like I said.
[12:13] <pozic> _Andrew: yes, I just noticed.
[12:13] <powner> do you know the versin of pulseaudio package you are using?
[12:13] <Ryan_Delaney> It would be whichever one is from the ubuntu repos. how can I check?
[12:14] <Ryan_Delaney> manpage says 0.9.5
[12:14] <powner> sounds old to me
[12:14] <powner> fixed in 9.8 in 2007
[12:14] <Ryan_Delaney> sorry?
[12:15] <Ryan_Delaney> maybe that's just the manpage then
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:15] <powner> i fail at debian, i'm a redhat guy XD  here for something else
[12:15] <Ryan_Delaney> okay, $ pulseaudio --version says 0.9.10
[12:15] <Ryan_Delaney> Actionparsnip: thanks, I do that daily
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: make sure you are fully updated
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: good, many dont
[12:16] <rmt> Hi, Does Wubi have problems with kernel upgrades from within Ubuntu (& generating a working initrd, I guess) ?
[12:16] <ickis> When delegating a domain to my own Ubuntu server, should I repeat the static ip in both dns name and ip?
[12:17] <hmw> i forgot the name of a very simple tool, that allows ntfs partitions to be automatically mounted on boot. what program could that have been?
[12:17] <hipitihop> what config setting/file would effect all keyboard and mouse input being ignored ?
[12:17] <ezerhoden> i see in xorg.conf that many things have been configured automagically. i am used to setting up this file myself. is there a way i can find out what values are associated with "Configured Monitor" and "Configured Video Device"?
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> rmt: as far as I know its ok, I dont use wubi though
[12:17] <hmw> ezerhoden: you could look into the xorg.log
[12:18] <jrib> ezerhoden: please read wiki.ubuntu.com/X
[12:19] <ezerhoden> hmw jrib, thanks. i will read both
[12:19] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: you good now or what?
[12:19] <Ryan_Delaney> powner: Nope. no progress.
[12:20] <Nik_Gr> hello, inrelevant, but can someone here cand send me an invitation please for torrentleech.org?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> rmt: if you reinstall the kernel after booting to an older kernel is it ok?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> rmt: you could log a bug
[12:20] <jrib> !ot | Nik_Gr
[12:20] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: mind checking "groups username" to check that your are in pulse-rt?
[12:21] <zamba> has anyone set up gdm with ldap? i'm experiencing a problem saying "cannot set your user group" and then something that it's unable to log in
[12:21] <TecR0c> how do you upload a folder to a ftp server ?
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> powner: if you just run groups, it assumes the current working user
[12:21] <zamba> TecR0c: use a ftp client
[12:21] <s0undt3ch> maxb
[12:21] <Ryan_Delaney> powner: http://www.fopedush.com/upload/malathion/pulse.png
[12:21] <TecR0c> I AM USING A FTP CLIENT
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> !ftp | TecR0c
[12:22] <zamba> TecR0c: then what's the problem? and stop shouting please
[12:22] <TecR0c> and i am trying to use mput
[12:22] <seravitae> anyone here use bind/named
[12:22] <TecR0c> but i don't know how to do folders?
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: just drag the folder over to the server in your client app
[12:22] <_anu> i install eclipse but the disk space is up , how can i uninstall it ?
[12:22] <TecR0c> sorry about the caps didn't mean it
[12:22] <zamba> TecR0c: typically -R
[12:22] <zamba> TecR0c: like put -R
[12:22] <TecR0c> im using terminal
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> _anu: sudo apt-get --purge remove <applcation name>
[12:22] <zamba> TecR0c: which ftp client are you using?
[12:23] <_anu> ActionParhship : thank you a lot , i must try ^^
[12:23] <TecR0c> the server is proftpd
[12:23] <TecR0c> and i am using the standard ubuntu one
[12:23] <zamba> TecR0c: the server has to comply with RFCs, so the server you're using is irrelevant
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=395385
[12:23] <ickis>  When delegating a domain to my own Ubuntu server, should I repeat the static ip in both dns name and ip?
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> zamba: it doesnt have to, its just advised if the software is to get anywhere
[12:24] <zamba> ActionParsnip: sure, but said in practical terms :)
[12:24] <csteel> TecROc: you say you are using terminal? tried scp?
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> zamba: true but its not enforced in any way
[12:25] <Dexi> is there anyone here familiar with coding tcl on eggdrops that could maybe help me with a short script?
[12:25] <zamba> ActionParsnip: nono, of course not.. i can write my own ftp server using my own set of standards, but the problem would be that practically noone would use it :)
[12:25] <_anu> ActionParsnip: I typed " sudo apt-get --purge remove eclipse", it said dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. cry
[12:26] <zamba> ActionParsnip: so in practical terms, and all TecR0c really needs to concern himself about, is that proftpd acts the way it's supposed to and thus is not part of the problem
[12:26] <cjae> !gnash
[12:26] <TecR0c> im not sure what you mean zamba
[12:26] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: might be network related then, also you don't need to be in the pulse group
[12:26] <TecR0c> sorry
[12:26] <TecR0c> ;/
[12:26] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: do you use a firewall?
[12:27] <syockit> I'm sure gnash doesn't work on nicovideo.jp
[12:28] <jrib> Dexi: try the eggdrop channel
[12:28] <Dexi> jrib: i did, nobody there on here or on efnet
[12:28] <jrib> Dexi: there are 30 people in #egghelp
[12:28] <cjae> I am using kubuntu and need flash but would like an open source solution, is gnash at a desktop alternative solution level (I know its beta)? plus isn't it for gnome, being that its (g)nash
[12:29] <cjae> !flash
[12:29] <powner> how do i disable join/part messages in irssi?
[12:29] <csteel> TecROc: are you logged into the ftp server? then you are trying to use the put command?
[12:29] <Dexi> oh egghelp
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: you could create the folder on the server then mput * to copy all the files
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: not massively graceful but should do the job
[12:29] <jrib> powner: http://irssi.org/documentation/tips
[12:29] <powner> jrib: ty
[12:29] <TecR0c> i guess that would work
[12:30] <cjae> there is another one too but I cannot remember name
[12:30] <powner> now to go into the other console and lynx that bad boy..
[12:30] <csteel> just a general question, does scp work on ftp servers?
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: you could try mput -R foldername
[12:31] <powner> csteel: i'm guessing no
[12:31] <Dexi> jrib: 30 people who arent responding :(
[12:31] <TecR0c> mput -R does not work
[12:32] <TecR0c> because it picks the -R as the folder
[12:32] <hmw> csteel: no. scp talks via ssh to the server
[12:32] <TecR0c> when i do mput -R filename
[12:32] <TecR0c> when i do mput -R folder
[12:32] <Bomber87> hello all!
[12:33] <boingOo> No manual entry for mput
[12:33] <hmw> what is a simple gui tool to make a ntfs partition automount on boot?
[12:33] <csteel> thanks hmw, I never use ftp, only ssh so I hadn't tried, but I figured as much
[12:33] <majnoon> !ot
[12:33] <csteel> TecROc: does the put command work?
[12:34] <cjae> anyone using gnash
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: when you are in the ftp prompt
[12:35] <boingOo> No manual entry for gnash
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> hmw: you can add a line to /etc/fstab to make the partition mount at boot
[12:35] <onats> !hdmi
[12:35] <TecR0c> ActionParsnip, that is when i tried it
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> hmw: or create a script to run the mount command when you log in
[12:35] <hmw> ActionParsnip - thanks, but i am looking for a SIMPLE tool, i already had, and forgot the package name
[12:35] <onats> anyone here been able to play audio via hdmi? I am on ati 3870 video card...
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> !info ntfstools
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> hmw: apt-cache search ntfs
[12:36] <powner> which is bets supported by ubuntu, dwm, wmii, xmonad, awesome or ion? (these are window managers)
[12:36] <powner> bets=best
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> hmw: i'd just use fstab, it will then be mounted even if you dro pto osafe mode root console
[12:36] <TecR0c> csteel, put ?
[12:36] <hmw> ActionParsnip - already doing this... for over 40 minutes now, also google of course. that package had some cryptic name - i lost my ubuntu-notes.txt file due to my stupidity
[12:36] <hmw> ActionParsnip - i had problems making it manually
[12:37] <Dr_willis> powner,  with alternative window managers like that - you just gotta use them and see. depends on how you define 'supported' also.  - i perfer jwm as an alterantvie
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> powner: all are supported well, just use the one you like
[12:37] <rohil> Hi , how do I change the brightness level of my Sony Vaio laptop screen ? The Power management tab does nothing in this regard .. thanks
[12:37] <Dr_willis> 'supported' means they work? :)
[12:37] <hmw> ActionParsnip - the tool writes all the stuff to fstab
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> powner: i use fluxbox on all my systems
[12:37] <powner> ratpoison wake broke for me so i don't want to try 10 wm's just to find one
[12:37] <mkf1> hello :)
[12:38] <white-sheep> rohil: Use your keyboard.  It's standard.
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> hmw: ive not come across it but you can use apt-search to see whats on the repos if you search intelligently, you can even grep the output
[12:38] <Dr_willis> powner,  you could always go compile the source.   with those wm's its a matter of taste as to what featres you want.
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> hmw: try: apt-cache search disk | grep -i tool
[12:38] <TecR0c> is there much speed difference between doing it through ftp or dragging and dropping folders through a network share?
[12:38] <hmw> ActionParsnip - thanks for your attention. i give up and will try tweaking fstab manually. it is a new computer, maybe it will work here...
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: could use apt-build if there is a source deb ;)
[12:38] <powner> it' snot a matter of taste for me, it's necessity
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> !fstab | hmw
[12:38] <white-sheep> TecR0c: I doubt it -- but you get better user feedback using FTP / Filezilla -- Progress.
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> hmw: backup the original first so you can easily roll back
[12:39] <hmw> ActionParsnip - okok... luckily, i am just lazy and not a total newbie
[12:39] <powner> so i want to find the best userbase i can to help me along
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> hmw: i assume nothing in here, no offence meant
[12:40] <cjae> ok I just installed gnash and would like to revert it and all it dependencies how do I do this?
[12:40] <hmw> ActionParsnip - misunderstanding! i just would like the easy-click-and-go version
[12:40] <Dr_willis> powner,  best user base would be on the more common window managers.. I guess you could check out the specific WM you are insterested in and see how good of a forum/web site/homepage they got.
[12:40] <cjae> it installed way to much stuff I would like to keep my system gnome free as possible
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> hmw: i dont know of such an app, i always manually update fstab
[12:41] <powner> guess i'm better sticking to console framebuffer anyway
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> hmw: if you know the command to mount it at command line, the fstab entry is very little different

[12:42] <uzer> hello who know how to optimize eclipse , it is work too slow
[12:42] <CrownAmbassador> This is a wild shot, but can anyone using a eth0 connection paste the contents of /etc/network/interfaces and post the link please please please?
[12:43] <powner> uzer: never heard of that - besides "don't use eclipse"
[12:43] <Dr_willis> powner,  ratposion works here..  of course for terminal work i tend to use the 'terminator' gnome-terminal variant
[12:43] <powner> seriously, vi is optimal in every why, why use eclipse at all?
[12:43] <CrownAmbassador> Anyone using ibex that is.
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> CrownAmbassador: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> CrownAmbassador: pretty decent guide there
[12:44] <powner> Dr_willis: !  how do i change the default term in rat?  mine defaulted to x-terminal-emulator
[12:45] <CrownAmbassador> ActionParsnip: Thanks. Thats what I wanted!
[12:45] <powner> Dr_willis: when C-t c nothing happens besides the exec notice
[12:45] <uzer> powner what you advise instead eclipse?  i don know other Java IDE ?
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> CrownAmbassador: np man, its a sweet file
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> !ide
[12:45] <powner> uzer: vi?
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> uzer: apt-cache search ide
[12:46] <Dr_willis> powner,  no idea.. read its docs..  x-terminal-emulator is   part of the  system ubuntu has to set system wide defaults for common tasks
[12:46] <powner> Dr_willis: so you just installed it an it worked?  version?
[12:46] <uzer> ActionParsnip i use synaptic manager, i will try this way
[12:47] <darksifer> hi everyone
[12:47] <Dr_willis> powner,  whatever was in the 8.10 repos
[12:47] <Dr_willis>  ratposion 1.4.3
[12:48] <powner> Dr_willis: guess my install is broke, i'll try a resinstall
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> uzer: same kinda back but if you use command line you can grep the output to filter it better
 thank for advise
[12:48] <darksifer> i download a bin file to my desktop but i cant get it install. i tried sudo chmod a+x RealPlayer11GOLD.bin /sudo bash ./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin/ chmod 755 RealPlayer11GOLD.bin but in vain
[12:48] <darksifer> plz help me out
[12:48] <rohil> I still can't change the brightness of my Vaio laptop ..any help would be very appreciated.
[12:49] <onats> rohil, squint your eyes a bit... jk
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> uzer: as you use linux you will tend to find command line offers way more power than gui apps (as you can see in that example) but they are great for novices
 no it is not problem for me, i mean  command line, i learn it fast... but i thought that command line gives less the GUI
[12:51] <Morclye> Hi. I'm newbie with Ubuntu as also with linux in general. I have problem that opening a page in firefox takes nearly half a minute. It says it's "looking up". Synaptic has same problem.
[12:51] <Uatec> w00t
[12:51] <Uatec> it let me in
[12:51] <Uatec> Hi there
[12:51] <onats> !kill
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> uzer: in some situations (cd burning, web browsing) I'd use gui but for copy, rename, open files, install apps etc etc, command line for me please
[12:51] <Uatec> Morclye: it sounds like a DNS issue to me. Are you familiar enough with DNS to run some checks  on that?
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> Uatec: welcome
[12:52] <Dr_willis> !realplayer
[12:52] <onats> how do i force kill an application (which i dont know the PID of) on my desktop?
[12:52] <Morclye> I have tried disabling ipv6 in firefox and made put ipv6 in off mode in alias
[12:52] <jav> !sata
[12:52] <Dr_willis> onats,  the 'xkill' command then click on the apps window.  works for most .
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> onats: try kill -15 <pid>
[12:52] <jxander> how do i grant root access to another user? i tried editing /etc/sudoers, by adding "jxander ALL= /usr/bin/moblock-control" but it didn't work.
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> onats: if its no good, try kill -9 <pid>
[12:52] <darksifer> thanks
[12:53] <Dr_willis> jxander,  thats how ya go about doing it.. if thats the right syntax. but the user must be in the proper group also.
[12:53] <Morclye> Uatec, I'm not familiar with working of DNS servers but I did manually enter my ISP DNS address in network configuration, didn't help though. In XP I have it set automatic
[12:53] <onats> Dr_willis, that worked, thanks!
[12:53] <onats> ActionParsnip, didn't know what the PID was
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> onats: kill -15 is a graceful kill and makes theprogram end, kill -9 just stops it dead
[12:53] <jxander> Dr_willis: in the same group as root?
[12:53] <Uatec> Morclye: in XP on the same network i assume you don't have the same issue?
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> onats: ps -ef | grep <app name>
[12:53] <Morclye> Uatec, Correct
[12:57] <Dr_willis> jxander,  i forget the details but thers some group thats allowed to use sudo..
[12:57] <T2loc> lu
[12:57] <T2loc> j'ai un probleme avec apt-get
[12:58] <jrib> !fr | T2loc
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> !fr | T2loc
[12:58] <T2loc> sorry
[12:58] <Dr_willis> jxander,  looking at the groups file it may be the 'adm' group
[12:58] <SmokeyD1> hey people. To get the latest stable clamav installed, which repositories do I need?
[12:58] <SmokeyD1> The standard repository packages seem to be a little behind ClamAV
[12:59] <SmokeyD1> 0.92 vs 0.94
[12:59] <jrib> SmokeyD1: 0.94 is what I see in intrepid's repositories.  What ubuntu version are you using?
[12:59] <jxander> Dr_willis: line adm:x:4:jxander is already there
[12:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Out of Date? !latest: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit.
[12:59] <jxander> Dr_willis: there is a sudo:x:27 . should i add :jxander?
[13:00] <Dr_willis> jxander,  i would ahve to say go google/read up on sudo configuration  and ussage.. its somtnhing you do not want to mess up
[13:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning jrib .. I made it home safely
[13:00] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: good to hear
[13:00] <jxander> Dr_willis: lol... you're right! :)... thanks :D
[13:01] <rmt> Does wubi's initrd require losetup?
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> rmt: do you mean the interface lo ?
 vi it is text editor and it is not convenient for programming on java
[13:01] <Jack_Sparrow> rmt, Please read and understand the differences between a Wubi install and a regular hard drive install.
[13:02] <SmokeyD1> jrib: sorry I meant hardy
[13:02] <SmokeyD1> :)
[13:02] <rmt> Jack_Sparrow, I'm quite familiar with partition installs .. installed via Wubi, did an apt-get update, including a new kernel, and now it won't boot.
[13:02] <rmt> ActionParsnip, No, I mean /dev/loop0 etc.
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> rmt: boot to the older kernel and read the logs
[13:03] <rmt> Would be nice, but the default upgrade seems to have replaced the old kernel completely. Annoying.
[13:04] <Jack_Sparrow> rmt, NO problem but since I dont recommend, nor use wubi I cant really help
[13:04] <rmt> So now I'm trying to figure out what I need to do to create a new initrd, which I presume is the key..
[13:05] <jrib> SmokeyD1: usually security patches are cherrypicked, so the version you are using probably already has the security patches from 0.94 (check the changelog).  See: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/clamav/+bug/296704
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> rmt: if you can find out the kernel version of the new malfunctioning kernel you could use: sudo apt-get install initrd.img-<kernel version>-generic
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> rmt: boot to the old kernel and run: dpk -l | grep -i kernel
[13:05] <SmokeyD1> jrib: yeah but I remember from previous experiences that clamav always complains if you don't update it
[13:05] <SmokeyD1> or has that been changed?
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> rmt: make a note of the newest kernel, then run the initrd installation as I said
[13:07] <rmt> ActionParsnip, Yes, I think that I can probably copy the appropriate kernel & initrd to the C:\ubuntu\host\boot (or whatever) directory and recover this way..
[13:07] <jrib> SmokeyD1: I don't use clamav.  Is it complaining?
[13:08] <SmokeyD1> jrib: I didn't install yet. I assumed it would be since I experienced that before. I'll see first before wasting time :)
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> rmt: could be an option, wubi is okay to try ubuntu but as a full OS its pretty nasty, some love it though but swings and roundabouts eh
[13:08] <SmokeyD1> jrib: I know debian has a volatile repository with clamav because of the clamav complaints when it 's not the newest version
[13:09] <rainbowinfinity> to install adobe acrobat in order to file my taxes, but every time i try to download/install, it fails because the helper applicatio is not present...can anyone help???
[13:09] <jxander> Dr_willis: i found a solution, adding jxander ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL to sudoers... do i need to logout for the changes to take effect?
[13:09] <rmt> ActionParsnip - annoyed that they pitch it as such a wonderful problem free solution, though.
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: i found the clamav on the repos refused to update definitoins and had to compile the source for the latest from the clamav site
[13:09] <jrib> SmokeyD1: the bug mentions some ppa, but I would try with the default repositories first
[13:09] <SmokeyD1> Yep, clamav is complaining it is outdated
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> rmt: ubuntu and linux as a whole are great, no OS is problem free
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: try: sudo freshclam
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: if it doesnt update you may have to compile it
[13:10] <Dr_willis> jxander,  not for  sudoers i think.. but thats not really a 'good' fix. :) you just disabled a big psr tof the secuity behind sudoers
[13:10] <Deany> i use avast.. has a gui too
[13:10] <SmokeyD1> ActionParsnip: freshclam only updates the virus definitions, not the program itself
[13:10] <SmokeyD1> that works fine
[13:10] <SmokeyD1> definitions are up to date
[13:11] <SmokeyD1> but the program is not
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: apt-get upgrade upgrades the app
[13:11] <SmokeyD1> ActionParsnip: 0.94 isn't available for hardy
[13:11] <jrib> SmokeyD1: apt-cache policy clamav   shows what version?
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: but you are relying on the repo maintainers to update them
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: then compile it
[13:11] <SmokeyD1> jrib:  Installed: 0.92.1~dfsg2-1.1ubuntu0.4
[13:11] <SmokeyD1>   Candidate: 0.92.1~dfsg2-1.1ubuntu0.4
[13:12] <coky> hi all
[13:12] <rmt> ActionParsnip, Oh, I know. Been using Linux since 95, and (almost) exclusively since ~2003. ;)
[13:12] <coky> any1 using LX 800 epson?
[13:12] <PhilTar> People are up at this time..?
[13:12] <coky> how to get the driver?
[13:12] <San> massa
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> coky: let me see what i can find
[13:13] <Pnux> hey, i have a file in the trash:/// that i cant delete because i dont have enough permission.. already tried chmoding trash:/// and sudo nautilus trash:///
[13:13] <SmokeyD1> ActionParsnip: so there is no other ubuntu repository that provides 0.94.1?
[13:13] <Pnux> any ideas?
[13:13] <coky> ok thanks
[13:13] <SmokeyD1> similary to the debian volatile repos
[13:13] <robocop> hello.
[13:13] <jxander> Dr_willis: i'm the only one using this lappy... is it that bad? could someone through internet gain access my comp because of this?
[13:13] <coky> ubuntu doesnt support it as default
[13:13] <SmokeyD1> It is quite useless to have a virusscanner without it's program (apart from the virus definitions) being up to date
[13:14] <Bormy> Hello
[13:14] <jrib> SmokeyD1: why is that useless?
[13:14] <robocop> It is normal if, next install apache2, the file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf is empty ?
[13:14] <Bormy> anybody could help?
[13:14] <jrib> SmokeyD1: did you see if the changelog mentions the 0.94 changes?
[13:14] <jhonnyboy> hey guys what does it mean to be identified to join a channel??
[13:14] <PhilTar> Bormy: You need to say what your problem is, first.
[13:14] <cousteau> what are ~/.fr-* folders?
[13:15] <SmokeyD1> jrib: since new virusses get released all the time that first try to disable the virusscanner so it can't be detected, even if the scanner knows about it.
[13:15] <rainbowinfinity> can anyone help me install adobe acrobat??
[13:15] <jrib> cousteau: folders that start with ".fr" in your home directory...  Why?
[13:15] <SmokeyD1> that is why the program itself is updated so often
[13:15] <Dr_willis> jxander,  proberly not too bad.   theres a lot of features sudo has -  for a varity of situations.. You could proerly set it where just that one command dosent need a password. if you wanted to
[13:15] <Bormy> the text of some of my applications' menu are not well displayed (ubuntu 8.10) .
[13:15] <Pnux> hey, i have a file in the trash:/// that i cant delete because i dont have enough permission.. already tried chmoding trash:/// and sudo nautilus trash:///. Any ideas?
[13:16] <jrib> SmokeyD1: I really doubt that happens on linux, but like I said, security fixes are cherrypicked into -updates.  That's why I am asking you to check the changelog of the version you have now to see if it mentions the bug I linked you to
[13:16] <cousteau> jrib: I mean, what's their purpose
[13:16] <jxander> Dr_willis: will any rule like that i set for sudo work for gksu too?
[13:16] <jrib> cousteau: your question is to general
[13:16] <jrib> too
[13:16] <PhilTar> Bormy: Did you mess with any of the theme settings? Metacity/Emerald
[13:16] <Deany> wish avast had a repo then i could update the program, but grabbin a deb now n then is fine, its always updated and has a nice gui
[13:16] <Dr_willis> jxander,  not sure.. but i think so
[13:16] <meican> hola
[13:17] <ezerhoden> jrib: that wiki.ubuntu.com/X link was exactly what i was looking for. Thanks again.
[13:17] <jrib> ezerhoden: no problem
[13:17] <cousteau> jrib: they seem to be temporary folders to unzip files
[13:18] <Bormy> philTar
[13:18] <Bormy> PhilTar: how to set it as default?
[13:18] <cousteau> but shouldn't them be automatically deleted when I'm not using the archive any more?
[13:18] <jrib> SmokeyD1: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-motu/2008-December/005068.html mail mentioning the ppa in the bug report
[13:19] <PhilTar> If you want to use Metacity, then press Alt+F2. Then type:    metacity --replace
[13:19] <SmokeyD1> jrib: thanks for the info
[13:19] <coky> ok iam loading the pages
[13:19] <meican> i have update my ubuntu (8.04) package,  but suddenly my all file type changed to plain text
[13:19] <meican> what's wrong ?
[13:20] <SmokeyD1> Indeed that security fix of clamav from 0.94.0 to 0.94.1 has been included in 0.92 of the ubuntu repos
[13:20] <rainbowinfinity> anybody have any ideas about installing adobe??
[13:20] <unomi> hi, any ideas on how i can speed up copying files over smb?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> meican: is that in nautilus etc/
[13:21] <hmw> rainbowinfinity: acrobat reader? try foxit reader instead
[13:21] <unomi> between to ubuntu intrepids i get about 5.3 MB/s
[13:21] <unomi> s/to/2/
[13:21] <meican> ActionParsnip, no
[13:21] <Dr_willis> unomi,  the smb.conf file has some suggested  tweaks - but smb can be sluggish.. nfs i hear is faster
[13:21] <meican> *.jpg, *.sxw, etc
[13:21] <meican> except system file configuration
[13:21] <Dr_willis> unomi,  and for linux to linux - i think the tweaks/comments suggest may help a lot.
[13:21] <rainbowinfinity> hmw..i tried, but the site i need to file my taxes ONLYuses adobe reader...i tried to install, but it said helper papps were missing
[13:21] <Dr_willis> unomi,  but for Ubnut to ubuntu - you may really want to use nfs
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> unomi: try using: socket options = TCP_NODELAY in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[13:22] <unomi> ill have a look, thanks
[13:22] <sipior> unomi: what speeds are you expecting?
[13:22] <zamba> how can i set the language used for the whole of ubuntu for one user?
[13:22] <unomi> for 100mbps net?
[13:22] <zamba> what file is that defined in?
[13:23] <unomi> sipior: lets just say higher than 5mb/s
[13:23] <jrib> zamba: enable the language in system -> administration -> language support.  Then at the login screen, click "options" and select your language
[13:23] <sipior> unomi: well, 5.3 MB/sec is over 40Mbit/sec, which is quite reasonable for switched 100BaseT
[13:23] <Dr_willis> I always get the MB/sec and Mbit/Sec stuff confused...
[13:24] <Dr_willis> and how it relates to 100/1000/whatever network speed #;s
[13:24] <sipior> unomi: rare to get more than 40-50% of max throughput as packet collisions become an issue
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> unomi: gksudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf and find the socket options, add that option and it goes a lot faster
[13:24] <unomi> trying to apply that now
[13:26] <Elmnas> hi guys can someone a easy program I can merge partitions in without lost the data on em?
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: gparted in livecd might be able to
[13:26] <Elmnas> ok
[13:26] <PhilTar> If I deleted all the settins in my home folder, will a reboot revert everything back to the default settings?
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: i'd run your backup before undertaking anything like that
[13:26] <Dr_willis> I dont think gparted can merge 2 partitions with data.. and KEEP the data on both
[13:26] <Dr_willis> that would be a neat trick
[13:26] <Elmnas> I cant have no space :(
[13:26] <PhilTar> Elmnas: google system rescue cd
[13:27] <Elmnas> but can you please remote me action please master
[13:27] <unomi> do i need to restart smbd ?"
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> PhilTar: yes, the folders for each app will be recreated as you run them
[13:27] <Dr_willis> Elmnas,  lets just say  i learned over the weekend.. if you cant afford to back stuff up.. expect it to get LOST at any time.. Had a 500gb hd die on me
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: so what if your drive fails, where is your data then?
[13:27] <Elmnas> ok..
[13:28] <PhilTar> What's the story with those 1TB seagate drives?
[13:28] <Dr_willis> Elmnas,  500gb hd..  did a click click.. and dead ;) on me thios weekend
[13:28] <PhilTar> Is it just a faulty batch or is the firmware on all them bad?
[13:28] <rainbowinfinity> can anyone help with adobe??
[13:28] <dinesh372> how to install vlc player in ubuntu i have alread downloaded .bz2 file and want to know how to proceed further
[13:28] <Elmnas> ok
[13:29] <Dr_willis> dinesh372,  remove the bz2 an install it from the repositories.
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: adobe what, they make about 30 apps i can pull of the top of my head
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: can you be more specific
[13:29] <Dr_willis> dinesh372,  theres no need to mess with the source - unless you have a need. :)
[13:29] <PhilTar> 10 bucks says acrobat
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: if your data is important, get a backup
[13:29] <Elmnas> ok
[13:29] <unomi> thanks for that, its up to 8.6 MB/s now
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: if its not, stay backupless
[13:29] <rainbowinfinity> Action Parsnip...i need reader inorder to file my taxes.. I tried to install, but it said helper apps were missing
[13:29] <sipior> PhilTar: my understanding was that the problem extended to a number of the Barracuda 7200.11 line, including the 500GB models...
[13:29] <jhonnyboy> how can i identify myself to join other servers?
[13:30] <dinesh372> Dr_wills: how to go in epositories
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> !info acroread
[13:30] <ezerhoden> jhonnyboy: /msg nickerv help identify
[13:30] <Dr_willis> dinesh372,  its in the normal package manager/repositories.. fire up synaptic and look for it..  learn how the package manager system works on Ubuntu
[13:30] <Dr_willis> !info vlc
[13:30] <Dr_willis> dinesh372,  you will need to be sure to enable the 'multiverse' repository
[13:30] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...i tried the installation instructions on the adobe site, but it got me nowhere
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: sudo apt-get install acroread
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: you can also use the open source one: xpdf
[13:31] <cousteau> so what are all those folders begining with ".fr-" that appear in ~?
[13:31] <jhonnyboy> how can i register a nickname?
[13:31] <ezerhoden> jhonnyboy: and /msg nickserv help register
[13:31] <jhonnyboy> ah thanks
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: its on the repos, you dont need any websites at all
[13:31] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...the doc reader will NOT work...tried already
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: if you want to CREATE pdfs, you can print through the pdf printer you have which is standard
[13:32] <PhilTar> off topic: is there a general computer chat channel on freenode?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: acrobat reader doesnt create pdfs
[13:32] <Jack_Sparrow> PhilTar, many, depending on hardware software or your interests
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> !ot | PhilTar
[13:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !irc
[13:32] <Dr_willis> If you print a pdf from acrobat reader to the PDF printer...  what does it really do? :)
[13:33] <PhilTar> Thanks
[13:33] <kompi07> fsgfsfgsdfgdfg
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: so you want to print a pdf to a pdf/ seems like a cp command to me :)
[13:34] <kid_kaito> azkum....
[13:34] <Dr_willis> ActionParsnip,  wonder if the 2 files would be identical ? :)
[13:34] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...apt-get did not work...says package is missing or only availible from another source
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: could use compare ;)
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: do you want to create a pdf, or simply look at one?
[13:35] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...I need to open a pdf on my state's tax site to file my taxes...the forms are inpdf
[13:35] <ScottG> How do I increase my swap space?
[13:35] <jrib> !swap > ScottG
[13:36] <PhilTar> rainbowinfinity: just get foxit PDF reader
[13:36] <IndyGunFreak> rainbowinfinity: just use evince, its part of the default ubuntu install
[13:36] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...I already tried all of the linux doc readers...they won't work...need adobe
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: then xpdf will let you view the file, thered pdfedit if you wish to edit the file itself
[13:37] <Dr_willis> I forget which repo i found acrobat reader in.. was it the Medibuntu ones?
[13:37] <rainbowinfinity> sorry...nevermind
[13:37] <IndyGunFreak> rainbowinfinity: if you must have adobe (which i doubt), medibuntu has acroread in its repository
[13:37] <ScottG> jrib: Thanks. I'm just having trouble hibernating when I have firefox open which usually has a lot of tabs.
[13:37] <shauno> I've not found any pdf readers that handle pdf forms properly.  I stick to acrobat reader too
[13:37] <jdangerous> 1337 userss
[13:37] <kenalex> hello
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: not sure myself, I use the open one
[13:38] <unomi> strange, pdfs open 'out of the box' for me
[13:38] <Dr_willis> dosent ockular also open them?
[13:38] <IndyGunFreak> unomi: they do for all of us.. for some reason, he claims he can't use evince (the program that works out of the box)
[13:38] <ScottG> jrib: Is this a good way to find out if I will be able to hibernate. I type "free" in terminal and if memory used + swap used > total swap, then I won't be able to hibernate?
[13:38] <co_naNO_MIx> hi
[13:38] <sipior> unomi: IndyGunFreak : the problem is form editing, i believe.
[13:38] <unomi> it could be some pdf 'inline forms' kind of thing
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> sipior: i was under the impression the problem as reading
[13:39] <jrib> ScottG: I don't know
[13:39] <unomi> whats the point of having a proprietary format if you don't leverage it
[13:39] <asdfasdfasdf> anyone tried installing latest opera in Ibex ?
[13:39] <co_naNO_MIx> hjgd
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> asdfasdfasdf: i've got it.
[13:40] <PhilTar> asdfasdfasdf: Me too
[13:40] <asdfasdfasdf> well, when i install it.. and i have on two different pc's.. two seperate installs,
[13:40] <asdfasdfasdf> the menu text doesn't show up
[13:40] <asdfasdfasdf> it's all underscores
[13:40] <ScottG> jrib: I was told that I didnt really need that much swap when I was installing but this is telling me i need double my RAM. odd
[13:40] <asdfasdfasdf> you guys have that issue?
[13:41] <sipior> IndyGunFreak: 2:35pm rainbowinfinity I need to open a pdf on my state's tax site to file my taxes...the forms are inpdf
[13:41] <PhilTar> Works fine with me
[13:41] <Dr_willis> asdfasdfasdf, its working here - i just used opera
[13:41] <sipior> moot point, he seems to have left :-)
[13:41] <asdfasdfasdf> fuck sakes
[13:41] <asdfasdfasdf> wtf
[13:41] <jrib> ScottG: just equal to your ram
[13:41] <PhilTar> I'm using custom fonts for everything though, that might be playing a role
[13:41] <cousteau> ~/.fr-* seem to be file-roller temporary files, shouldn't them be automatically deleted?
[13:41] <co_naNO_MIx> hgj
[13:41] <asdfasdfasdf> ibex is a POS
[13:41] <IndyGunFreak> sipior: then adobe reader isnm't gonna work either.
[13:41] <jrib> asdfasdfasdf: that doesn't get you help faster.  Stop with the language
[13:41] <elmnas> hi guys can someone a good program for see chasi fan controller like a panel, on desktop I downloaded im sensors but I can just see the temp on my mainpanel
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: its not for everyone
[13:41] <Dr_willis> asdfasdfasdf -    it just hates you
[13:42] <IndyGunFreak> asdfasdfasdf: what menu text?
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: when do you see the underscores?
[13:42] <asdfasdfasdf> in any menu text
[13:42] <asdfasdfasdf> hold on i'll get a screenshot
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: does it happen for all users? (you could create a test user to test)
[13:43] <backkom> Wenas
[13:43] <jdangerous> can anyone help me, iam trying to install videop drivers for my ati firemv 2250 pcie card.. i tried to install the FirePro_8.543_Linux_71557.zip driver but when i restart i get no video and have to bootin recovery mode to get it back
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: if its ok for the test user, rename ALL ~/.gnome* folders and reboot
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: if it happens in the test user, its te app thats broken
[13:44] <Dr_willis> I recall there being some font/compiz issues with some apps.. but i dont recall hearing Opera Mentioned inthe list
[13:44] <sipior> IndyGunFreak: actually, it does work, but doesn't save to pdf. if you're planning on printing out the forms and mailing them in, it works fine.
[13:45] <elmnas> can someone help, me I want have my im-sensors like a styled window on my desktop so I can see the temps how do I do
[13:46] <JePeaL> np
[13:46] <zamba> jrib: but what if i want to set the system-wide language using flat configuration files?
[13:46] <paul68> what are the benefits of a vpn connection over a ssh connection?
[13:46] <zamba> jrib: i'm maintaining a bunch of computers over ssh
[13:46] <jrib> zamba: for a single user or?
[13:46] <zamba> jrib: for all users
[13:47] <jrib> zamba: setting LANG in /etc/environment is probably enough
[13:47] <bn43> hi has anyone come across a situation where shutdown and reboot just don't execute?
[13:47] <bn43> via command line
[13:47] <asdfasdfasdf> http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/1450/screenshotmg6.png
[13:48] <sipior> bn43: any error messages?
[13:48] <bn43> no
[13:49] <zamba> jrib: ok.. cool :)
[13:49] <asdfasdfasdf> IndyGunFreak, ActionParsnip - check that out ;o
[13:49] <burkmat> Any easy way to read keys out of my keyring? I'm very well aware of the keyring password but apparently it doesn't memorize my SMTP-key, so I need to take my POP one and stick it in there...
[13:49] <gidna> Hi
[13:49] <bn43> system says its going down for reboot but then nothing happens
[13:49] <gidna> http://rafb.net/p/jbRsh030.html  why can't I install perl 5.10?
[13:49] <elmnas> asdfasdfasdf what is it for program you have to see the system , info etc?
[13:50] <sipior> bn43: might check /var/log/messages and dmesg for unusual entries. may i ask what command you used to start the reboot?
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: is that in compiz?
[13:50] <ScottG> Why does the SwapFaq on the ubuntu site say that swappinness os 10 is recommended but then its set at 60 by default.
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> ScottG: never worked that one out myself
[13:51] <bn43> sudo reboot
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> ScottG: I always change it myself
[13:51] <elmnas> actionparsnip do you know what is it for program asdfa...  he use to show the system info?
[13:51] <asdfasdfasdf> elmnas, it's called: conky
[13:51] <elmnas> okej thanks :)
[13:51] <asdfasdfasdf> ActionParsnip, is what in compiz?
[13:51] <asdfasdfasdf> yes i have it installed..
[13:51] <asdfasdfasdf> it comes installed by default ;p
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: are you running compiz when you get the underscores?
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: compiz is optional.
[13:52] <bn43> sipior: nothing in there
[13:52] <n8tuser> bn43 -> after you issued that command, ctrl+alt+f1 to see if any syslog displayed there
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: if you switch back to metacity, is it ok?
[13:53] <elmnas> asdfasdfasdf how can I modify it?
[13:53] <bn43> I'm ssh into the box
[13:53] <bn43> is there a way to see that otherwise?
[13:53] <ScottG> ActionParsnip: If I use a vm frequently that takes up 2 gb of my 4 gb of ram, should i leave my swappiness at 60 or would 10 still be best?
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> ahh shit
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> ScottG: i'd try both settings for a week or so, see which makes your system perform best
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> yeah when i switch to MC the menus are there
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> wtf
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> that is, metacity
[13:55] <Pici> asdfasdfasdf, Please watch your language in this channel, thank you.
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> stfu
[13:55] <sipior> oh dear...
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> ScottG: it all varies on how and what you use your system for. I set it to 10 on my 1Gb ram system but i rarely exceed it
[13:56] <uriol> hi
[13:56] <sipior> asdfasdfasdf: could you try communicating in words instead of grunts? if you just want to vent, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:57] <uriol> do you know a way to see the size of the folder in file navigator ? without doing du commands ?
[13:57] <asdfasdfasdf> lol losers

[13:58] <ActionParsnip> !dualhead | jwiddwii
[13:58] <jwiddwii> !Xinerama
[13:58] <jwiddwii> Cheers

[14:00] <ActionParsnip> dundel: its a terminal command
[14:00] <homy> Hi! How can I stream music (mp3) from my ubuntu box to the wii using the lan? (and the wii web browser channel)?
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> dundel: it shows the outputs of all inputs to the system
[14:00] <centoasa> Hi everybody
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> dundel: if you are running compiz, there is a bug with it where certain settings kill mouse clicks
[14:01] <centoasa> my network manager don't accept static IP
[14:01] <centoasa> it's normal?
[14:01] <xiaojianjun> Good evening!
[14:01] <Heliodor> Hey
[14:01] <centoasa> I'm chatting form Italy
[14:01] <Heliodor> Im trying to install Eclipse PDT 2.0 but nothing happens when i run the executable file.
[14:01] <sipior> centoasa: afraid so. i understand the latest version allows for static IPs (long overdue...)
[14:01] <Heliodor> Any ideas why?
[14:02] <centoasa> in fact I've 8.10
[14:02] <Deany> homy, bit OTT maybe but try apache and musicindex module
[14:02] <dundel> ActionParsnip: yes i'm using compiz, and yes i get events in xev
[14:02] <Deany> v nice
[14:02] <tr3nd> How do i make sure my graphic drivers are installed?
[14:02] <sipior> centoasa: yes, but 8.10 doesn't have the latest network manager
[14:02] <centoasa> wht's the latest network manager?
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> dundel: bad compiz crippling the click, head into #compiz I'm sure they get this a lot, if you default all the compiz settings it should return
[14:02] <xiaojianjun> Can someone tell me how to install flash player in power pc
[14:02] <jwiddwii> hrm, I've asl decided that it is not worth it
[14:02] <sipior> centoasa: http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/
[14:03] <Heliodor> None?
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> xiaojianjun: you have gnash or swfplayer
[14:03] <skoef> act
[14:03] <dundel> ActionParsnip: Thanks, i'm going to try it there
[14:03] <jwiddwii> I'll wait a while, don't want to bugger asl it up guys
[14:03] <centoasa> can I upgrade network manager from within Ubuntu?
[14:03] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips?
[14:03] <homy> Deany: what do you mean with OTT?
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> homy: ott == over the top
[14:04] <sipior> centoasa: is it so important? you can use the network configuration dialogue to set up a static network. i agree it's not ideal. of course, you could always build a new network manager, but building gnome apps is a special form of pain...
[14:04] <homy> and how can over the top help me with streaming music to my wii?
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> homy: can wii access windows shared folders?
[14:05] <centoasa> sipior: you say it's better dhcp instead static IP?
[14:05] <n8tuser> matteo1990 -> thats unique, whats a vga cable? video cable?
[14:05] <remoteLAP> hi all
[14:05] <Deany> homy,  heres a very old guide i knocked up...  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202837
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> centoasa: its not a case of better, if dhcp suits your needs, use it
[14:05] <sipior> centoasa: no, i said you can configure a static ip from within the networking dialogue
[14:05] <homy> ActionParsnip: no. There only is the web browser channel with a opera web browser. But accessing a mp3 or even flv file doesn't work. But flash works on the wii.
[14:06] <matteo1990> n8tuser->RGB/VGA, the cable for screens.
[14:06] <Deany> if you can follow that, using the latest musicindex (1.2.2 i believe) then you`ll be grand
[14:06] <Deany> still have one setup myself
[14:06] <remoteLAP> ActionParsnip: hey dude, all straight?
[14:06] <homy> Deany: does it stream with flash? Because otherwise the wii can't play it
[14:06] <sipior> centoasa: or just modify /etc/network/interfaces by hand. the syntax is pretty easy to follow, and is documented in "man interfaces"
[14:06] <n8tuser> matteo1990 -> HD is hard disk?
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> remoteLAP: yeh pretty much
[14:07] <Deany> homy, ahh.. not flash no..
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> homy: if you install vlc, you can catch the stream like a webcast
[14:07] <matteo1990> matteo1990->High definition.
[14:07] <homy> Deany: but doesn it work with the wii?
[14:07] <remoteLAP> ActionParsnip: nice:) well then let suppot a little
[14:07] <Deany> homy,  make a vidiscript server
[14:07] <centoasa> siprior, can you help me step by step to configure static ip?
[14:07] <remoteLAP> homy: should not be platform dependent
[14:08] <homy> ActionParsnip: but there isn't a "stream receive programm" on the wii, only a web browser with flash (not even java!) support.
[14:08] <Deany> (your own flash site)
[14:08] <sipior> centoasa: sure, although, if you've already got dhcp working...
[14:08] <mr_bmh> anyone tell me what the software I can use to convert the .mov to .wmv in Ubuntu
[14:09] <mr_bmh> Need the program in Gnome
[14:09] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips?
[14:09] <centoasa> I'm click right: modify connection
[14:09] <Deany> homy, i dont know if it will work with the wii no.. (musicindex) it just displays your music nicely as a webpage where you click on and it streams it to your assigned music player.
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> homy: I think you can access it via http, I'd look into it
[14:09] <remoteLAP> !video | remoteLAP
[14:09] <homy> Deany: wait a moment, I'll try the vidiscript live demo with the wii...
[14:09] <homy> ActionParsnip: thanks
[14:10] <sipior> centoasa: actually, have a look here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-set-a-static-ip-address-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html
[14:10] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: have a look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[14:10] <Deany> is the web browser the only thing it has?
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> remoteLAP: dude check Penumbra out, its a sweet first person game
[14:11] <remoteLAP> matteo1990: what laptop is it?
[14:11] <remoteLAP> ActionParsnip: well do, sec
[14:11] <centoasa> sipior: great! I'm trying it
[14:11] <uriol> how can i record dvb tv signal in divx format ?
[14:11] <matteo1990> remoteLAP: Fujiitsu amilo Pi 1505
[14:11] <uriol> the kaffeine it records in mpeg-2 format
[14:11] <uriol> it make very big files
[14:12] <uriol> 1gb for 10 minutes video
[14:12] <mr_bmh> I am using ubuntu, I want to convert the .mov file to wmv for my gigabeat. I have read that site
[14:12] <remoteLAP> matteo1990: happen to know what graphics card you got?

[14:13] <remoteLAP> ActionParsnip: looks nice on first sight
[14:13] <new_on_linux> hi, i wonder if kaspersky av can be installed on wine?
[14:13] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: wahts the problem there?
[14:13] <xiaojianjun> I downloaded the swfplayer and installed it.but i  still don't know how to use for firefox
[14:13] <Fuzzy> hey guys how to install icons?
[14:13] <homy> Deany: yes, it only has the opera browser. (And the game channel, mii channel, shop channel, weather channel and news channel).
[14:14] <remoteLAP> xiaojianjun: it does it automagically when you open a website with flash content nothing more to do
[14:14] <mr_bmh> I need the software convert the .mov to .wmv in my hardy Sir
[14:14] <Deany> homy, guess vidiscript is the best/only way then...  got my own setup of that too :)
[14:14] <remoteLAP> new_on_linux: to what purpose?
[14:14] <elmnas> Hi use conky now, and I have modifed the .conkeyrc but how do I remove the border, ? http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/1598/screenshotnu6.png
[14:14] <homy> Deany: can it also stream mp3 files? Do you have it working with the wii
[14:14] <JackWinter> anyone managed to get vmware to output sounds under 8.04 ?
[14:14] <matteo1990> remoteLAP: yea i got the basic intel one :  "Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express" thats the xorg row.
[14:14] <Deany> erm... yes
[14:15] <Deany> and pics
[14:15] <dsdeiz> hi, may i ask what the effect in compiz that is similar to the widgets in vista? :-/
[14:15] <pzy> hi
[14:15] <Deany> it acts like youtube... basically but you can upload mp3 and pics
[14:15] <Fuzzy> pls i have to hurry tell me how to install icons
[14:15] <Deany> takes some installing tho
[14:15] <remoteLAP> matteo1990: you might haver to attach the3 cable and the reboot in order for that to give an output to the hd
[14:16] <Deany> unless you are proficient with linux.
[14:16] <homy> Deany: does that mean I have to upload every mp3 file manually? Can I just point it to a directory on the server on which it is installed that contains all the music?
[14:16] <Deany> afraid so...
[14:16] <Deany> you upload like youtube..
[14:16] <Deany> lemme just check something, brb
[14:16] <mr_bmh> anyone tell me how to convert .mov to .wmv in Ubuntu?
[14:17] <remoteLAP> dsdeiz: you might wand to install desklets for that
[14:17] <pzy> today i installed ubuntu intrepid with kde4 and it all works fine, besides that global shortcuts that should start an application won't work, i've googled a bit there i found 1-2 solutions, but none works for me, also i'm not sure if it is an ubuntu or a kde4 issue, can somebody help me?
[14:17] <matteo1990> remoteLAP: i tried also rebooting, the resolution of my screen changes like he detected the other. But the tv gets no signal. I tried with a Projector and it worked instead...
[14:17] <error404notfound> anyone ever used smbspool?
[14:17] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: well buddy i cant help you if you dont answer my questions
[14:17] <homy> Deany: ok, so that doesn't make any sense. I mean, I'd have to upload hundreds of songs manually.
[14:17] <remoteLAP> matteo1990: in that case the problem is obviously homet at your tv
[14:17] <mick02> Alright folks, myself and a few friends were hoping to set up a VPN between a few different boxes (all with different ISP's) so we could share files. I was wondering if OpenVPN would be the best way to go or can someone suggest a different alernative
[14:17] <Starhero> Ok does anyone know of any like voice chat rooms for ppl that wanna learn linux or have isssues, I don't mean a service...i mean something like this but for fucks sake with voice!
[14:18] <paul68> asdfasdfasdf: 2 questions concerning your screenshot how do you get your icons like that at the bottom of your screen and the side bar with your system statistics?
[14:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !ohmy > Starhero
[14:18] <toddoon> how does it called the meta package for installing meta package such as lamp
[14:18] <asdfasdf> hi everybody, does anyone know how to run the migration assistant after installing ubuntu?
[14:18] <matteo1990> remoteLAP: it works great with the same computer and windows...
[14:18] <mr_bmh> remoteLap: Could you please give me the question again
[14:18] <Deany> so you need it to use flash to stream mp3?
[14:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Starhero, See also offtopic
[14:19] <Starhero> Who here has Teamspeak?
[14:20] <homy> Deany: yes. I also tried openening a playlist, mp3 or flv via the web browser but it said unsupported format. And java isn't supported either, only flash.
[14:20] <paul68> how do you get conky on your desktop?
[14:20] <Deany> so it has to be encoded then as flash
[14:20] <Uatec> so some of you might have heard last night, me talking about getting no audio out of my headphones, it's not quite that simple. i WAS getting audio out of the headphones, but it was being drowned out by the onboard speakers
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> paul68: sudo apt-get install conky
[14:21] <Uatec> the strange thing is now that my realtek sound card plays out of the headphones AND speakers at the same time, i haven't found any control to allow me to change the volume of the two outputs independently (i want to turn off the PC speakers if the headphones are plugged in)
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> paul68: then you will need to manually create ~/.conkyrc from the example one, or use one from online
[14:21] <mr_bmh> remoteLap: in the site has not the information for video converter
[14:21] <Uatec> has anybody had this behaviour using a realtek sound card and 8.10?
[14:21] <homy> Deany: there are some windows programs that stream to the wii (somehow encoding-on-the fly), but, well, they're not for linux/ubuntu.
[14:21] <mr_bmh> remoteLap: can you give me the name of software?
[14:21] <paul68> ActionParsnip: already done that where do I find these examples online?
[14:22] <candra> wawaxs
[14:22] <Deany> let me check this vidi with mp3
[14:22] <Uatec> homy, deany, have you thought about VLC? that transcodes on the fly to and from a million different things, you might find a way to configure that to do your thing...
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> paul68: websearch for conkyrc
[14:22] <paul68> ActionParsnip: ok
[14:22] <ahes_> hello ubuntu
[14:22] <Jack_Sparrow> candra, Hello, did you have a ubuntu support question for us
[14:22] <Mickmeister> I have a small issue here. Since modifying my Advanced Desktop Effects settings my machine has been reduced to an absolute crawl. It's on it's knees. Simply loading my IRC client took about 10 minutes.When I modified a couple of settings, the GUI vanished and displayed a black screen with random parts of colour. I rebooted and as soon as I logged in I'd be logged out again straight away. After 3 reboots I manage to g
[14:22] <Mickmeister> et in but the output on my display is all over the place, a 4th reboot gets the display working but leaves my system virtually at a standstill. I have since tried undoing the settings I have modified, but that hasn't worked. Does anybody have the vaguest idea why this is happening? Or what I can do to correct this issue?
[14:22] <homy> Uatec: can it transmit audio via flash so I can play it on the Nintendo Wii?
[14:23] <wawaxs> alo
[14:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !hi
[14:23] <ahes_> I got ubuntu-specific problem with mysql
[14:23] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: umm please dont write to me encryptet that causes problems here
[14:23] <ahes_> mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my.cnf --print-defaults
[14:23] <ahes_> it  works fine
[14:23] <homy> !wii
[14:23] <ahes_> after copying file to another e.g.: cp /etc/mysql/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my2.cnf
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: have you installed video drivers?
[14:23] <ahes_> I get
[14:24] <ahes_> # mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my2.cnf --print-defaults
[14:24] <tritium> !enter | ahes_
[14:24] <ahes_> Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/my2.cnf
[14:24] <ahes_> Fatal error in defaults handling. Program aborted
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> ahes_, Please keep your questions on one line,
[14:24] <mr_bmh> remoteLap: What the exactly software I need to install in my Ubuntu?
[14:24] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, no. It appeared to be modifying my Advanced Desktop Effects that caused this issue.
[14:24] <ahes_> ehh
[14:24] <ahes_> all right
[14:24] <ahes_> wait
[14:24] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: gimme a sec
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> ahes_, Please stop that
[14:25] <sevenseeker> if anyone uses sox, do you know if it links to the wavpack lib(s)?
[14:25] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips?
[14:25] <feelshift> matteo1990: try inteprid ibex
[14:25] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, the system is literally crawling. Just loading the drop down menu for applications takes about 10 seconds.
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: then default what settings you have and add the settings one by one and testing, then build up until you have what you want. One setting will tip it over
[14:26] <shubbar> is there an open source program like Skype?
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> ekiga
[14:26] <shubbar> does Ekiga support video calls?
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: if you enable the prettys without installing your video card drivers it will perform badly
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, not sure of the spelling
[14:26] <mr_bmh> Anyone can tell me how I can install the Gmencoder in Ubuntu 8.04
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> !info ekiga
[14:26] <ahes_> Command "mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my.cnf --print-defaults" works fine. After changing file name by copying it from my.cnf to my2.cnf I get error "Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/my2.cnf" after running mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my2.cnf --print-defaults. File are the same, same permissions, same acls, same owner - exactly the same. Strace says "open("/etc/mysql/my2.cnf", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1
[14:27] <tritium> shubbar: absolutely
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> !info gmencoder
[14:27] <mr_bmh> I got the sourse but there need some independence
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: apt-cache search mencoder
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: compile the source, make sure you have te deps installed
[14:27] <shubbar> can i use Ekiga to call Skype users?
[14:27] <Jack_Sparrow> ahes_, check permissions on the new location
[14:27] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: theres this perl module: http://search.cpan.org/~allenday/FFmpeg-6036/FFmpeg.pm
[14:28] <ahes_> Jack_Sparrow: checked, ecatly the same
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, Dont think so
[14:28] <aar> Hi, I'm running dosemu in Ubuntu 8.04. I want to upload a file from my desktop to the virtual c: directory. I have tried cp-ing to /etc/dosemu/drives/c , but nothing comes up in the DOS console. Where am I going wrong?
[14:28] <ahes_> Jack_Sparrow: could you try this in your ubuntu?
[14:28] <Jeruvy> ahes_: what was the cp command you used?  Likely didn't move permissions.
[14:28] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I have enabled my video card and ran the most fancy desktop effects with no difference in performance for a long time.
[14:28] <shubbar> i installed Skype but the video isn't working in it, in Ekiga it works, but havn't used it yet
[14:28] <linuxman410> shubbar there is one like skype called gizmo
[14:28] <olifox> hi all - i've got some csv files whose mimetype is somehow set to "audio/mpeg". if i open the file in text editor and write it to a new file, its type shows up correctly as ascii/plain text - is there a command line way of doing that?
[14:28] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: okie thanks. Once more question, I have try to compile the Gmencoder source
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: ok thats a good sign
[14:29] <ahes_> Jeruvy: just cp my.cnf my2.cnf
[14:29] <Jack_Sparrow> ahes_, No, I dont use mysql .. fyi there is a server channel and an apache2 channel that may be of more help
[14:29] <pzy> nobody can help me?
[14:29] <mr_bmh> It does not work
[14:29] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: ok?
[14:29] <ahes_> Jeruvy: ls -l and getfacl say that permissions are exactly the same
[14:29] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh:  wha is that?
[14:30] <Jeruvy> ahes_: ah ok, should use --preserve
[14:30] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I have disabled everything. There an increase in performance, but nothing like what I originally had.
[14:30] <mrjohnsen> Hi. I got a xorg-intel update today and now i can't enable  compiz. Any tips?
[14:30] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: I have try with the ./configure than there are some mistake
[14:30] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: what error?
[14:31] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips? I think the problem is simply with the (fn+f4 key that switch screen) in ubuntu i haven't it... DO u know how to emulate its effect or to replace it? thx
[14:31] <ahes_> Jeruvy: the same problem after using --preserve
[14:31] <ahes_> Jeruvy: could you check in your system?
[14:31] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: checking for libgnomeui-2.0... Package libgnomeui-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgnomeui-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libgnomeui-2.0' found
[14:31] <mr_bmh> configure: error: Library requirements (libgnomeui-2.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
[14:31] <frostschutz> how to get a list of files of a package? (command line)
[14:32] <Pici> frostschutz: dpkg -S packagename
[14:32] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh:  what does dpkg -l libgnomeui-2.0 return?
[14:32] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, okay then now the toolbar at the top of my windows have vanished. So the minimize and the close X etc etc for every window.
[14:32] <mr_bmh> I donot know
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: ok then add a single effect and run it for 10 mins to test its ok, if its good, add another
[14:33] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: umm you need to enter that in a console
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: you on an nvidia gfx card?
[14:33] <mr_bmh> RemoteLAP: correct, I am do it in terminal
[14:33] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I'm not entirely sure. I think so yeah, if I remember rightly.
[14:34] <mr_bmh> RemoteLAP: can you help me to build it in Ubuntu 8.04
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: lspci | grep -i vga
[14:34] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, it's a factory installed GFX card built into an Intel Inspiron 530.
[14:34] <unomi> hi, ive installed java-6-sun, does that automagically create a $JAVA_HOME for me?
[14:34] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: you need to enter the command dpkg -l libgnomeui-2.0 into a console
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: the command wil tell you
[14:34] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: thaqt tells you if you have that package installed
[14:34] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=77186
[14:34] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[14:34] <shubbar> my Ekiga is 2.0.12 but there is 3.00 now available.
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: ok
[14:35] <Jeruvy> ahes_: what are the permissions for my.cnf or my2.cnf?
[14:35] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: please wait, I check it
[14:35] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: your cpompile process tells you that you are missing prerequisites to compile
[14:35] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: sure
[14:35] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, Out of Date? !latest: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit.
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: have a websearch for the card and see if there are any options you can set
[14:36] <homy> Deany: you still there?
[14:36] <shubbar> thanks Jack_Sparrow, sometimes i get lost searching for the latest
[14:36] <jdangerous> cann anyone tell me what package i shuld be installing for an ATI FireMV 2250 PCIe card, i used FirePro_8.543_Linux_71557.zip but it didnt work for me
[14:37] <Absolute0> I am thinking of getting a new laptop, which manufacturer is best for linux/ubuntu os?
[14:37] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP:  apt-get install libgnomeui-2.0
[14:37] <mr_bmh> Reading package lists... Done
[14:37] <mr_bmh> Building dependency tree
[14:37] <mr_bmh> Reading state information... Done
[14:37] <mr_bmh> E: Couldn't find package libgnomeui-2.0
[14:37] <FloodBot2> mr_bmh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:37] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: exactly
[14:37] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: ah ok gimme a sec
[14:37] <ahes_> Jeruvy: the same, http://pastebin.com/m4b7de192
[14:37] <Deany> homy, yes but i dont have any idea other than VLC like he said
[14:37] <shubbar> jack_sparrow, even in Ubuntu, i went for the latest and upgraded to 8.10 and lost my graphic 3d acceleration
[14:37] <homy> Deany: how vlc?
[14:37] <Starhero> I have teamspeak server waiting for anyone that wants to get away from this text chat bull and use something alot more easier to help and get help to and from ppl.
[14:38] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I have just reset the defaults and have my toolbars back. Performance appears to be 70% of what is originally was.
[14:38] <homy> Deany: does it supply a web interface?
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: sounds like you have a lot to do man
[14:38] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips? I think the problem is simply with the (fn+f4 key that switch screen) in ubuntu i haven't it... DO u know how to emulate its effect or to replace it? thx
[14:38] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, LEarn to compile your own, learn to package for others but first of all please learn how to backup as learning the other two will mean you will need the last
[14:38] <Starhero> not only am i doing this for everyone else, i am doing this cuz  i am bored and i don't have a soul to TALK to about linux and am craving more info
[14:38] <coky> hi all
[14:38] <Deany> you stream with it, using HTTP
[14:38] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: have a look at this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libgnomeui&mode=filename&suite=intrepid&arch=any
[14:38] <coky> anyone use totem?
[14:38] <Deany> so you enter the url into your wii browser.
[14:39] <Deany> and it should play
[14:39] <coky> how ti enable ssa subtitle?
[14:39] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, yeah sure does. I don't know what went wrong, I enabled one setting and them BOOM! Graphical display gone in an instant. I didn't understand the logging me out as soon as I logged in either, I thought that was quite strange.
[14:39] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: i cant tell exactly what package it is but pick the nevest versions and maybe also install a.dev version
[14:39] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, If you installed the drivers manually and did a kernel update you will probably need to reinstall the drivers like you did before
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: you may need an extra package to stop windows decorations vanishing
[14:39] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: What i need to do? There are many libs
[14:40] <Jeruvy> ahes_: and the result of the mysqld?
[14:40] <Derf_the_> Hi all
[14:40] <mr_bmh> RemoteLAP: could you please compile the Gmencoder in Ubuntu and give the link I download it? Thansk
[14:40] <Jeruvy> ahes_: the permissions do look fine
[14:40] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar,  May I pm you for a sec
[14:41] <ahes_> Jeruvy: Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/my2.cnf
[14:41] <homy> Well, too bad I can't play my music collection on the wii then. Well, anyways, thanks for your help.
[14:41] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: well as said i dunno which exacly search through it an lokk for the newest versions
[14:42] <error404notfound> how can I change a ps file from portrait to landscaoe
[14:42] <DasEi> my pidgin doesn't do sound no more, what to check ?
[14:42] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: errr noipe, sry
[14:42] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I'm seriously just considering a complete back-up and format.
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: its an option
[14:43] <Mudf1apMike> I've installed postfix for the purposes of only sending outgoing mails via php scripts. Everything works great except for when I try to send an email to the same domain that postfix has set as the hostname.. I get a bounceback message saying that the mailbox doesn't exist (loopsback to myself). How can I convince postfix that it is not the real incoming mailserver?
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: you could make a new user to try with a blank set of settings maybe
[14:43] <mr_bmh> anyone has successfuly install Gmencoder in Hardy?
[14:43] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, a final option, the one I'd like to avoid most. I have major issues with installing Linux distro's on my machine you see because of a hardware compatibility issue. Took me ages to get the damn thing running.
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: try the new user, then you can see hwat settings are good
[14:44] <Derf_the_> I have locked up everything on my U8.10 actual visible desktop; ie there are no icons showing on the desktop and the Right & Left buttons do nothing only when on actual desktop.
[14:44] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I think Dell made their own Linux Ubuntu 7.04 release with a patch to fix the hardware issues. I have that on CD-R somewhere, I hope.
[14:45] <mr_bmh> Anyone done the synchronization between windows mobile with Ubuntu? What the driver need for to do it?
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: theres a debian deb but its not advised to install it
[14:45] <Derf_the_> Anyone have any ideas how I did that?
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: let me see if i can dig up an ubuntu deb
[14:45] <buize> helo friends
[14:45] <shubbar> jack_sparrow, yes
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> Derf_the_: does it go ok after you restart the x server
[14:46] <KenSentMe> I'm having trouble installing an Adobe Air program on Ubuntu 8.10 (tweetdeck). I tried the tips from Adobe, but air still says my AIR file is damaged. Anyone have a hint on what to do to solve this?
[14:46] <mr_bmh> ActionParsnip: Please help me
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: i wouldnt advise using it, the developer isnt supporting it anymore
[14:47] <Derf_the_> The icons all show in a file manager window and the permissions are all normal.
[14:47] <shubbar> jack_sparrow, ill be back in 15 min
[14:47] <N-A> Hello all
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: if you instamm mencoder from repos, you can then compile the app from source for hardy
[14:48] <N-A> How can I make a small shell script to automatically run wine with the aoss wrapper? (equiv. of aoss wine "program")
[14:48] <mr_bmh> ActionParsnip: I have successful install the mencoder. But to do in the comand line is very difficult for me.
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> N-A: small text file with: #!/bin/bash
[14:49] <mr_bmh> ActionParsnip: I aslo try to compile the Gmencoder after install the mencoder. It does not work
[14:49] <citoy3n> a few days ago my numerical keypad stopped working, is this a known problem? (8.10)
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> N-A: then just add the line you use to run the app as you do in terminal
[14:50] <N-A> ActionParsnip: Yes, but I wan't it to do it in general
[14:50] <sipior> N-A: just make the second line: "aoss wine $1"
[14:50] <brotherhand> can anybody tell me how to access the restricted drivers manager?
[14:50] <N-A> ActionParsnip: so I want to replace the original wine executable with this script
[14:50] <IndyGunFreak> brotherhand: sys/admin/hardware drivers
[14:51] <N-A> sipior: Cool, how do I find the original location of wine?
[14:51] <ActionParsnip> N-A: you can alias the command
[14:51] <brotherhand> thanks
[14:51] <Jeruvy> ahes_: I tried it and it works fine.
[14:51] <sipior> N-A: "which wine"
[14:51] <ahes_> Jeruvy: mysql --version
[14:51] <akravets> hello
[14:51] <Derf_the__> Hi all
[14:51] <dinesh372> can anyone tell me how to install vlc player in ubuntu
[14:51] <N-A> sipior & ActionParsnip: Awesome! Thanks!
[14:51] <mr_bmh> ActionParsnip: Any idea for me Sir
[14:51] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips? I think the problem is simply with the (fn+f4 key that switch screen) in ubuntu i haven't it... DO u know how to emulate its effect or to replace it? thx
[14:51] <Jeruvy> !info mysql
[14:52] <unr3a1> dinesh372: sudo apt-get install vlc
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: compile the app using the source on sourceforge
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: http://gmencoder.sourceforge.net/
[14:52] <ahes_> !info mysql-server-5.0
[14:52] <brotherhand> uh wait how do I run the restricted drivers manager, I mean?
[14:52] <Jeruvy> ahes_: 5.0.51a
[14:53] <N-A> sipior: what right do I need to set on the script? 777?
[14:53] <akravets> When Ubuntu 8.10 was released I tried to install it on my Lenovo T61: install went fine but wireless would not work - the system would just halt after about 10 min of use. Has anybody with T61 tried to install updated 8.10 with wireless working?
[14:53] <ahes_> Jeruvy: not 5.0.67?
[14:53] <sipior> N-A: just chmod u+x should do fine
[14:53] <dsdeiz> lol, i don't know how to install a theme.. may i ask how? :D
[14:53] <N-A> sipior: Thx!
[14:53] <rootmentor> whats that traffic on "cat /proc/kcore ?
[14:53] <Derf_the__>  I have locked up everything on my U8.10 actual visible desktop; ie there are no icons showing on the desktop and the Right & Left buttons do nothing only when on actual desktop.  The permissions are fine and everything is there from a file manager; so how do I get back to normal?
[14:53] <localt> Hello, I want to use Ubuntu 8.04 desktop. I've done the install, noticed that the machine comes up already using ~ 500MB RAM, anyone got tips on how to decrease the memory usage?
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> Derf_the_does an x restart )ctrl + alt + backspace) make it ok?
[14:54] <ahes_> Jeruvy: I will report a bug in ubuntu launchpad.
[14:54] <sipior> guess it did :-)
[14:54] <ahes_> Jeruvy: and we will see whether it's ubuntu or mysql bug ;)
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> localt: mem usage will be high as its used as disk cache, as apps need it it will be decreased to make room for the app
[14:54] <Jeruvy> ahes_: good idea.  It doesn't look like a mysql bug
[14:54] <brotherhand> dsdeiz: go to system>preferences>appearance. any themes you have downloaded you can simply drag and drop into the window that displays what themes are available
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> localt: top will show you the ram usage and what apps are using it
[14:55] <dinesh372> UNr3al: i tried sudo apt-get install vlc but it says some package cannot be installed
[14:55] <dsdeiz> i don't know what the .emerald is about.. any ideas? :-/
[14:55] <unr3a1> dinesh372: what package?
[14:55] <easyfit> this might be a pretty particular question... but does anyone know how to pass arguments to sshfs when you're doing the mounting in fstab? I need to specify the port since I don't use 22 for SSH on the target machine... but I can't figure out how to specify that through fstabs syntax, if it is at all possible
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> dsdeiz: its an emerald theme
[14:56] <N-A> sipior: I get permission denied, -rwxr--r-- 1 root root 25 2009-01-21 15:54 wine
[14:56] <localt> ActionParsnip: top shows ~500MB
[14:56]  * eikichi mange
[14:56] <nbah> Hi all,  using fluxbox, I can't get to ttys. Pressing Ctrl-Alt-Fn doesn't work... ?
[14:57] <unr3a1> dinesh372: copy everything that you see and paste it here:  http://www.rafb.net/paste/
[14:57] <sipior> N-A: well, first, don't call the script "wine", because there is already an executable by that name. second, why is the file owned by root?
[14:57] <unr3a1> dinesh372: then provide the link to the paste
[14:57] <N-A> sipior: I renamed wine to wine.org
[14:57] <N-A> sipior: And the file is owned by root because I had to sudo nano wine to have permission to create the file
[14:57] <dinesh372> unr3al: which link
[14:57] <sipior> N-A: don't do that...
[14:58] <sipior> N-A: best to create the script with your username. really :-)
[14:58] <linuxman410> kensentme what app in adobe air
[14:58] <N-A> sipior: OK but then how do I get the wine command to run aoos wine
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> localt: if you read the screen it will sow you the apps using it, you'll find most of the 500mb is used for disk cache
[14:58] <KenSentMe> Linuturk, tweetdeck

[14:59] <mrjohnsen> I can't enable compiz after updating the xserver-xorg-intel package today. What to do?
[14:59] <N-A> sipior: Yes, but I need wine to run aoss wine, since whenever i install something in wine it creates a/several shortcut(s) and I want them to work, without having to change them all
[14:59] <sipior> N-A: what i typically do is keep scripts in /home/<username>/bin, and just add that directory to my path
[14:59] <dad_> Hi Don_Miguel, .dmrc was ignored on x restart, I'm just having a look at what that is now.
[14:59] <dsdeiz> uhm, i've already installed the theme but i'm not sure how to use it.. :-/
[15:00] <eikichi> Hello my newly installed ubuntu use 900Mo in RAM is it normal ?
[15:00] <N-A> sipior: Could I then get the files in /home/... to take precedence over /usr/bin?
[15:00] <dinesh372> unr3al: i had send you the output on runnu=ing the command sudo apt-get install vlc
[15:00] <hwilde> hey everybody :)    I have two monitors running separate xscreens.  why can't I open firefox on both xscreens?
[15:00] <N-A> sipior: For that user, that is
[15:00] <dsdeiz> it  isn't listed in Appearance > Themes :-/
[15:00] <Deany> localt, there is a lot of gunk (I personally) dont need in sessions and services... saved a lot disabling em

[15:00] <raven> hi
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> localt: server edition doesnt have a big fat x server
[15:01] <Uatec> has a small X server?
[15:01] <Linuturk> KenSentMe: :)
[15:01] <hwilde> !server | Uatec
[15:02] <raven> could anyone tell me how to "install" partimage with an 8.10 live cd session??
[15:02] <localt> yea, I guess you're right
[15:02] <N-A> sipior: how do I do that? And how do I know which has precedence? (So if there are two files with the same name in both folders the one in /home/... wil get executed and not the one in /usr/bin)
[15:02] <linuxman410> kensentme i just installed it worked fine
[15:02] <bridawson> hi everyone
[15:02] <KenSentMe> Linuturk, sorry :)
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> localt: if the system is running ok then the system is running the ram as disk cache to improve hdd speed
[15:02] <KenSentMe> linuxman410, hmm, i tried deleting all the air stuff in my home, but didnt help
[15:02] <dinesh372> how to install vlc player in ubuntu
[15:02] <bridawson> i just installed Ubuntu 8.10.  But i need help with the xorg.conf file so it can see both my monitors.
[15:03] <mrjohnsen> I can't enable compiz after updating the xserver-xorg-intel package today. What to do?
[15:03] <Uatec> hwilde, i was just being silly, picking up on the seize of the xserver rather than it's presence :P
[15:03] <raven> could anyone tell me how to "install" partimage with an 8.10 live cd session and to use it this way???
[15:03] <linuxman410> kensentme the only diffrence is i am running 9.04 instead of 8.10 ubuntu
[15:03] <sipior> N-A: well, just put this in your .bashrc: "export PATH=/home/N-A/bin:${PATH}", and everything in /home/N-A/bin will be run first. another option is to leave the /usr/bin/wine script in place, change the permissions with chmod o+x, and make sure it points to the real wine binary.
[15:03] <dinesh372> how to install vlc player in ubuntu
[15:04] <Deany> raven, what do you want to do
[15:04] <localt> thanks ActionPrasnip
[15:04] <unr3a1> dinesh372:  I am trying to help you, but you gotta help me get the errors that you are seeing.  paste what you are seeing to that link that I sent you
[15:04] <raven> dinesh: use synapics, it's in the list
[15:04] <N-A> sipior: Your solution with /home/... sounds cleaner, right?
[15:04] <unr3a1> dinesh372: http://www.rafb.net/paste/
[15:04] <sipior> N-A: either way.
[15:04] <raven> deany: backup my partition
[15:04] <DarkKnight> hey can anyone tell me a good editor for C and C++ where i can compile and execute comfortably
[15:04] <KenSentMe> linuxman410, shouldnt make a difference i think. Air installes fine
[15:05] <N-A> sipior: is .bashrc in my home dir?
[15:05] <sipior> N-A: yep
[15:05] <Deany> raven, well try out clonezilla then... uses partimage and other tools..
[15:05] <Deany> and is livecd
[15:05] <linuxman410> kensentme i just told it to install when i click on it and it did
[15:05] <Linuturk> KenSentMe: no problem. I just started using twitter too . . . lol
[15:05] <raven> isn't it possible to boot from the ubuntu 8.10 cd and "install" partimage?
[15:06] <raven> i mean like apt-get install partimage... something like that
[15:07] <step93> [ ][ ][ ] OlA CoMpAgNeRoS Di #ubuntu [ ][ ][ ]
[15:07] <N-A> sipior: Should that export line be added somewhere specific in .bashrc? or should I just append it at the bottom?
[15:07] <Deany> you need to unmount the partition you wanna backup tho
[15:07] <phanbt> hi guys what's the best way to downgrade to 2.6.24-7 kernel?
[15:07] <dinesh372> raven: synaptics asking for mark additional require changes
[15:07] <wers> i need to make a pie chart for my statistics class. is there a pie chart maker for ubuntu? :)
[15:07] <sipior> N-A: makes no difference. at the bottom is fine.
[15:07] <N-A> sipior: OK, thanks again :)
[15:08] <Deany> hence clonezilla
[15:08] <ezerhoden> phanbt: apt-pinning ?
[15:08] <raven> dinesh did you choose "every source"?
[15:08] <phanbt> ezerhoden: apt-get doesn't have it
[15:08] <albuntu> wers: sorry if i misunderstood but if you want to make charts you can try openoffice spreadsheet
[15:08] <kenalex> do any of you guys virtual windows on your ubuntu desktops ?
[15:08] <wcdl> does anyone knows how to get photoshop cs3 working under wine 1.1.13?
[15:08] <wers> oh nice. i'll try that albuntu :)
[15:09] <raven> deany the required partition is my boot partition. i read on http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/partimage that it is possible too boot up from live cd and then temporarily install partimage for that session
[15:09] <dinesh372> raven: Depends: vlc-nox but it is not going to be installed
[15:09] <raven> but how?
[15:09] <unr3a1> raven: dinesh is getting an error when he tries to install vlc that tells him that one of the apps required to install vlc cannot be installed
[15:09] <Deany> yes, and clonezilla does this, Live...
[15:09] <SlimeyPete> wcdl: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=6584
[15:09] <raven> sry
[15:09] <SlimeyPete> wcdl: short answer is "it doesn't work", I think
[15:09] <Deany> its made for this purpose
[15:10] <wcdl> according to this link it works
[15:10] <raven> ok thanks i'll try
[15:11] <SlimeyPete> ah, yeah, I msiread
[15:11] <SlimeyPete> anyway, try those instructions
[15:12] <wcdl> im trying but no luck
[15:12] <albuntu> wcdl what about using it with virtualbox ? its just an idea
[15:13] <linuxman410> kensentme i notice alot of things just run in9.04 that i could not get to run in 8.10 i know 9.04 is still  in alpha though that is why i dual boot 9.04 and 8.10
[15:13] <hwilde> ok so why can I only open firefox in one xserver at a time, when I can open almost any other program in both
[15:13] <wcdl> i already have it in virtualbox, but natively is better
[15:13] <wcdl> i think
[15:14] <laeg> has anyone had issues with bluetooth on ubuntu?
[15:14] <Deany> wcdl, is using an earlier version an option
[15:14] <hmw> when i type "gnome-terminal --geometry=120x35" from command line, it works. how can i make it work in the applications menu, too? (it is ignored there)
[15:14] <N-A> sipior: Hmm, it doesn't appear to work, it doesn't look like it is running the script, but just the /usr/bin/wine file directly
[15:14] <Deany> im still on version 7 :)  works tho
[15:14] <albuntu> wcdl: i dont know. if you really need photoshop you can try 7. i know for sure that it works
[15:14] <KenSentMe> linuxman410, hmm, i dont want to run 9.04 now and dont link dual boot, lets see if others have managed to run it on 8.10
[15:14] <sipior> N-A: you'll need to restart your terminal...
[15:14] <N-A> sipior: I did, and /home/user/bin is at the start of the PATH variable
[15:14] <linuxman410> kentsentme that is fine just a suggestion
[15:15] <sipior> N-A: you've replaced "user" with your own username, right?
[15:15] <wcdl> albuntu i have cs2 installed and working well, but i want the cs3 cause it haa somethings that cs2 hasn't
[15:15] <N-A> sipior: yes
[15:15] <ubuntuteen> i want help
[15:15] <sipior> N-A: what does "which wine" output?
[15:16] <N-A> if I go into ~/bin and run ./wine it runs the script
[15:16] <ubuntuteen> my intex tv tuner
[15:16] <N-A> /home/user/bin/wine
[15:16] <Mudf1apMike> Can someone point me in the right direction? I'm trying to configure postfix so that mail sent from itself does not get intercepted if it is to the same domain.. I'm getting a 'loops back to itself' undeliverable error because it thinks that it is the final destination when the mxrecord says otherwise
[15:16] <N-A> sipior: /home/user/bin/wine
[15:16] <albuntu> wcdl: ah ok. i never tried but whats the problem by the way ? because getting installed cs2 and cant install cs3 it seems strange to me. i didnt thought it might have problem
[15:16] <sipior> N-A: and the exact error you get is?
[15:16] <james296> can anyone here help me change the menu icon next to the Applications area?
[15:16] <N-A> sipior: I don't get any error, it just runs wine
[15:17] <N-A> sipior: without aoss
[15:17] <Irfan> please solve my problem
[15:17] <wcdl> cs2 is easy to install as in windows but cs3 is to hard to install

[15:19] <wcdl> and the output has a lot of "fixme"
[15:19] <ubuntuteen> plz guys
[15:19] <james296> just for one icon?
[15:19] <albuntu> james296: i dont know if i remember it exactly but if i am not wrong the name of the icon is something like gnome-desktop-icon or something like that. i think you can find it in /usr/share/gnome/ try finding it and replace it
[15:19] <linuxman410> guest90689 what u need
[15:19] <ubuntuteen> help

[15:20] <albuntu> james create your own and replace it with sudo cp by terminal
[15:20] <N-A> sipior: Yeah I did copy and paste :-S
[15:20] <sipior> N-A: yeah, typed it wrong, apologies
[15:20] <hmw> james296 maybe using a downloadable theme will do it - google for e.g. "art gnome" or "gnome desktop theme"
[15:20] <sky_> why i cant kill Opera ? :(

[15:21] <Boohbah> ubuntuteen: mythtv + ubuntu = mythbuntu
[15:21] <rww> !repeat | ubuntuteen
[15:21] <sipior> ubuntuteen: a piece of advice: asking every ten seconds just makes us despise you.
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuteen, Please dont repeat we see your question

[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !mythtv
[15:21] <Boohbah> sky_: kill -9 $PID
[15:21] <albuntu> hmw: yes. but he already has the theme. if he has human theme he can change it directly there
[15:21] <Uatec> sky_, how are you trying to kill it?

[15:24] <albuntu> james296: check the option "use custom icon" and select your icon
[15:24] <rww> DasEi: Is Tools > Preferences > Sounds set correctly?
[15:24] <ubuntuteen> i use intex tv tuner card jack_sparroe
[15:24] <albuntu> james296: you have to find menu-object there
[15:24] <james296> but theres nothing there...
[15:24] <rww> DasEi: (Pidgin preferences, that is)
[15:24] <DasEi> ubuntuteen: install tvtime
[15:25] <md22> hello
[15:25] <N-A> sipior: I added an echo command to the start of the script, just to be absolutely certain it isn't running the script. It isn't unless I explicitly specify the path. :-S
[15:25] <albuntu> james296: find menu-object and select the option "use custom icon" and select your own
[15:25] <ubuntuteen> will that do the job for me
[15:25] <tritium> ubuntuteen: if your card is supported on linux, it iwll
[15:25] <tritium> will*
[15:25] <hmw> albuntu i dont have "menu-object" there, neither. only "menu_path"
[15:25] <DasEi> rww: checked that before, (and had it working, then stopped for no reason), test doesn't sound, rest of soundsys is fine
[15:25] <sipior> N-A: well, call the script something else, i guess
[15:25] <james296> I found it under browser_launcher_screen0
[15:25] <ubuntuteen> thank u tritium and dasei
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuteen, there are several ways to   do it..  verify your card is supported
[15:26] <ubuntuteen> how
[15:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware
[15:26] <james296> also menu_bar_screen0
[15:26] <hmw> albuntu but there is "use custom icon" and "custon_icon"!! james296
[15:26] <DasEi> !who | ubuntuteen
[15:26] <Loof> Anyone know how to get the 'Terminal Service Client' to stop retrying on disconnect or close?
[15:26] <tritium> ubuntuteen: linuxtv.org has an wiki page you can check
[15:26] <rww> DasEi: Hrm. Closing and reopening pidgin sometimes helps that, or playing with the Method setting on that page.
[15:26] <Jeruvy> !patience | ubuntuteen
[15:26] <albuntu> james296: let me check one minute
[15:26] <james296> yes
[15:27] <DasEi> rww: neither alsa or automatic fixed it, very bad not to get sound on a reply
[15:27] <alisson> alguem brazuca
[15:27] <albuntu> james296: ok do this in terminal : locate distributor-logo
[15:27] <ubuntuteen> ok thank you very much
[15:27] <DasEi> ubuntuteen: sudo apt-get install tvtime
[15:27] <ubuntuteen> i got it
[15:27] <rww> DasEi: yeah, it is somewhat annoying. I'm not on an Ubuntu system right now, so I can't check my settings for it.
[15:27] <PsynoKhi0> hi, I'm looking for anyone with some experience with Kino
[15:28] <alisson> brasileiros cade????
[15:28] <tritium> !br
[15:28] <james296> done
[15:28] <N-A> sipior: Yes, well, what I was hoping to achieve was to get the wine command to run: aoss wine $1 so just renaming it really doesn't achieve what I was going for. Maybe I'll have to rename the wine executable? I just find it strange that "which wine" returns the script file, yet it's not what gets run when I type "wine" in the console???
[15:28] <albuntu> james296: find the path to the logo of your theme. the one that you are using. and replace it there. you can use in terminal : sudo cp /path/to your logo.svg /path/to the logo in the theme.svg
[15:28] <sipior> N-A: what username are you currently running under?
[15:28] <Deany> think im gonna format my home to jfs, ext3 makes things  painful to use when extracting a dvd packed as rar, is it just a matter of booting livecd and copying my entire home folder to external, formatting, copying back and fixing fstab?
[15:29] <N-A> sipior: PM?
[15:29] <sipior> N-A: sure
[15:29] <james296> well Im only using Human-Clearlooks with the GNOME-Human iconset
[15:29] <ubuntuteen> thank u very much dasei.
[15:29] <DasEi> rww: also when I did a purge-remove, reinstalling pidgin came up with all my preseeds (chats, nicknames) too, so config wasn't erased
[15:29] <albuntu> james296: i found mine in /home/snake/.icons/hydroxygen/22x22/places/distributor-logo.png
[15:30] <tritium> DasEi: naturally.
[15:30] <james296> it needs to be 24x24
[15:30] <xujun> hello
[15:30] <DasEi> ubuntuteen: if you run tvtime, card found ?
[15:30] <albuntu> james296: so try checking yours in .icons folder. and look carefully to your size. i dont know what size ar you using
[15:30] <rww> DasEi: per-user configurations aren't removed by purging the package. To remove your per-user configuration for Pidgin, delete the .purple directory in your home directory.
[15:30] <dinesh372> how to play songs using terminal
[15:31] <albuntu> james296: if it has to be 24X24 than change that one
[15:31] <xujun> mplayer
[15:31] <james296> it still wont work I tried it and had the gnome panel refreshed
[15:31] <DasEi> rww: will try this later, thank you
[15:31] <oCean_> dinesh372: you're back! We told you yesterday :)
[15:31] <hmw> james296 i had to log out
[15:32] <albuntu> james296: it worked for me in this way. i had the gnome foot before and i have the ubuntu logo now
[15:32] <dinesh372> oCean: i am unable to solve the problem

[15:39] <albuntu> james296: i use the ubuntu logo. :)
[15:39] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:right click on the screen, set the correct -TV norm, -input , start channel-search
[15:39] <james296> dont you think the Ubuntu logo is a lil right centered?
[15:40] <albuntu> james296: yes. it seems a little more near to the menu
[15:40] <Sh4mmah> Hello guys
[15:41] <ubuntuteen> dasei: in input configuration i didnt find channel seach
[15:41] <oCean__> dinesh372: sorry, had connection error. Did it work?
[15:41] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:sudo lspci | grep video                                    , which card ?
[15:41] <dinesh372> oCean: what happen
[15:41] <dinesh372> oCean: no reply from yours side
[15:41] <james296> which folder is the gnome foot located in lol
[15:41] <xakep_inc> Hey guys.. I was wondering if someone might be able to help me out with a postfix config problem
[15:41] <xakep_inc> I spent two days on it already with no results almost
[15:41] <nix_> sorry, disconnected
[15:41] <oCean__> dinesh372: sorry.. disconnected :( You should be able to use command "mpg123 song.mp3"
[15:41] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:tvtime's  menu is self-explaining, play around a little
[15:41] <nix_> repeat: hi all, do you know how to prevent network-manager to disconnect wlan when logging off?
[15:42] <jtaji> james296: it's an optical illusion because there's more weight on the right of the logo, it's centered, notice when you open the app menu all the icons are on the same center
[15:42] <wayne> can someone give me the link too setting up multimedia
[15:43] <james296> damn optical illusions...lmao
[15:43] <nix_> also: do you know what the "system settings" checkbox means, given that it's unresponsive
[15:44] <ubuntuteen> dasei:the above command which u gave seems not working
[15:44] <nix_> I'm talking about stock Ubuntu 8.10 Network Manager version 0.7.0
[15:45] <ubuntuteen> dasei:when agian i started the apllication it stated with blue screen then turned balck
[15:45] <oCean__> dinesh372: did it work
[15:45] <ackbahr> Hi folks! I'm about to flush my Ubuntu 8.04 and try 8.10 (I have the opportunity as I've messed everything up). I want to backup my personnal data, it's supposedly all in /home, right?
[15:45] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:then search for your card in the out from :  sudo lspci | less
[15:46] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:good sign, dig tvtimes menu
[15:46] <rww> ackbahr: yup, assuming you didn't make an effort to throw it all over the filesystem
[15:47] <ubuntuteen> dasei: i got output
[15:47] <xakep_inc> I have a problem configuring postfix.. I followed the tutorial on the ubuntu web page, but it didn't quite work. I have 4 different IP addresses configured on the same machine with 4 different domain names associated with it. I use ip virtual hosts and named hosts in apache and they all work like a charm. Now I tried to set up postfix.. But it is working only partially..
[15:47] <xakep_inc> It complains that "unable to use my hostname"
[15:47] <nix_> ackbahr: I suggest you to backup also /etc, it may contain useful, hard earned, system settings.
[15:47] <xakep_inc> And I can only send mail and not receive
[15:47] <linuxman410> kensentme i just login to 8.10 and installed tweet deck and it work fine
[15:47] <xakep_inc> And even that not for all the domains
[15:47] <laeg> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6590809#post6590809 bluetooth
[15:47] <ackbahr> nix_: Thanks a lot, I'll do that too
[15:48] <oCean__> xakep_inc: did you visit #postfix channel?
[15:48] <dinesh372> oCean: now how to use the player i am able to install it
[15:48] <ubuntuteen> dasei:it is philips semiconductors SAA7130 video broadcast decoder
[15:48] <xakep_inc> nope.. didn't know it exists
[15:48] <xakep_inc> I'll try that
[15:48] <xakep_inc> thanx :)
[15:48] <ubuntuteen> dasei:what can i do now
[15:48] <oCean__> dinesh372: as I told you several times type the command "mpg123 surfinusa.mp3"
[15:49] <ackbahr> cool, I'd like to listen to it too!

[15:50] <wayne> new install of 8.10, where can I find all the details I need to install multimedia support?
[15:50] <rww> wayne: what do you mean by "multimedia support"?
[15:50] <oCean__> dinesh372: are you rockin' already!?
[15:51] <wayne> rww, playing dvds, mp3 and windows codexs and such
[15:51] <xakep_inc> oCean_: the postfix chan looks kinda empty
[15:51] <rochdi> Hi ALL
[15:51] <xakep_inc> Don't see many people talking there..
[15:51] <rww> !restricted | wayne: oh, restricted formats
[15:51] <wayne> ty sir. !
[15:51] <oCean__> xakep_inc: they're all asleep? Sorry, thought they might help out.
[15:51] <rochdi> I want to install Hylafax+Avantfax on Ubuntu HArdy
[15:51] <rochdi> can you help me
[15:51] <xakep_inc> I see
[15:51] <rww> xakep_inc: most other channels aren't as busy as this one; it might take a while for someone to answer ;)
[15:52] <flamoot> why won't any of the mirrors in the expert install for my ubuntu 5.10 cd work
[15:52] <xakep_inc> :P
[15:52] <nix__> wayne: open a terminal and type the command "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" (without quotes)
[15:52] <flamoot> i can reach web.sf.net
[15:52] <xakep_inc> Yeah.. but I kinda used up all my resources on trying to solve this one
[15:52] <flamoot> w/ sftp
[15:52] <xakep_inc> So I guess I'll have to wait around
[15:52] <rww> flamoot: because Ubuntu 5.10 is no longer supported and its repositories have been removed from the mirrors.
[15:53] <Jeruvy> !eol | flamoot
[15:53] <mattia> salve ragazzi, posso chiedere anche qui informazioni su kde oppure dovrei spostarmi su un altro canale?
[15:53] <flamoot> hey so what url should i try instead jeruvy
[15:53] <flamoot> i mean, what hostname. is there a release file it will accept somewhere else?
[15:53] <albuntu> !it | mattia
[15:53] <Jeruvy> !eol | flamoot
[15:53] <rww> flamoot: you shouldn't. You should go get a CD of a newer version of Ubuntu, because the one you have is ridiculously out of date.
[15:53] <flamoot> no stop
[15:53] <flamoot> wow that's really hurtful and insulting rww
[15:53] <flamoot> it's ok
[15:53] <flamoot> i understand the concept of planned obsolescence
[15:54] <franki^> heh, how's that insulting?
[15:54]  * flamoot rages
[15:54] <franki^> the new version's are free, and better
[15:54] <franki^> versions*
[15:54] <flamoot> maybe i can burn a cd but then i'd be better off with knoppix
[15:54] <nix__> do you know how to prevent network-manager to disconnect wlan when logging off?
[15:54] <lieuwe> hi there, i need some help with my ubuntu usb-startup disk, first off all, my bios doesn't support booting from usb, i solved that using a bootloader an a cd, which loads the ubuntu boot loader, but because off this i can't give aditional startup parameters, which i need for it to work.
[15:55] <rww> flamoot: It is not feasible for Ubuntu to continue to support all previous versions perpetually. If you need long term support, get an LTS release (supported for 3 years on the desktop, 5 on the server).
[15:55] <dinesh372> oCean: thank you very much now i am able to play songs but just one more query is it necessary that there must be no space in the song name as when i tried with songs having space between words i am not able to play the songs
[15:55] <xakep_inc> anyways, #postfix looks dead
[15:55] <flamoot> hmm
[15:55] <flamoot> ok thanks bye for now
[15:55] <xakep_inc> is there any postfix ace here up for the task? :)
[15:55] <zanophol> can anyone help me with what I believe to be an easy dnsmasq issue?
[15:55] <xakep_inc> I'm kinda clueless on that
[15:55] <Broken|Arrow_> xakep_inc: ?
[15:56] <oCean__> dinesh372: ok. If you have spaces in your filename, you can use the <tab> key to complete your filename.
[15:56] <rochdi> I want to install Hylafax+Avantfax on Ubuntu HArdy
[15:56] <ackbahr> so long folks!
[15:56] <xakep_inc> Broken|Arrow_ - Basically I'm trying to set up postfix on a machine that has 4 IP addresses associated to it, and 4 domain names. And I can't receive any mail.. And it says "unable to use my own host" all the time
[15:57] <xakep_inc> I've been googling and RTFM'ing for the whole day
[15:57] <xakep_inc> Couldn't find anything that quite solved my problem
[15:57] <lieuwe> anyone hase expierience with a ubuntu-boot-usbstick, the 'buffer error on device sr0' error adn the pendrivelinux.com bootfromcd-cd?
[15:57] <zanophol> dnsmasq is handing out dhcp addresses and correctly resolves properly formed addresses fine (at least 99% of the time). If I ping madwifi.org from a client, I get the proper name resolution..if I ping svn.madwifi.org, it appends my domain name to the end of it...it will also do this for any other garbage name...like ping crap...crap.zanoware.org replies
[15:57] <oCean__> dinesh372: so type "mpg123" and the first two or three characters of the song. Then hit <tab>. It wil autocomplete the filename like "surfing\ usa.mp3"
[15:57] <Broken|Arrow_> xakep_inc: can you pastebin your main.cf somewhere ?
[15:58] <xakep_inc> Broken|Arrow_ - yeah.  1sec
[15:58] <KenSentMe> linuxman410, ok, then there is something wrong with my system, thanks
[15:58] <sipior> xakep_inc: is your mydestination variable set properly in /etc/postfix/main.cf?
[15:58] <blue112> Hello everyone, my Trust Office Scan Compact 19200 USB Scanner doesn't want to works, what can I do ?
[15:58] <xakep_inc> sipior - I'll pastebin my main.cf in a sec
[15:58] <zamba> blue112: make it
[15:59] <[[thufir]]> fonts and icons are just a *bit* bigger on reboot. my max screen resolution is 960x600, but I don't know what it was before.  could it be a video card?  It's a built-in video card.
[15:59] <sipior> xakep_inc: unfortunately, i need to be off in about five minutes. still someone in the channel may find it useful for a diagnosis
[15:59] <zamba> blue112: or provide more information here, so we can help you debug it
[15:59] <ubuntuteen> dasei: in those forums they have another type of card well i have philiips
[15:59] <lieuwe> blue112->did you plug both the power and usb cable in?
[15:59] <ubuntuteen> dasei:so what should i do
[15:59] <blue112> lieuwe: There is no power cable, and the usb cable is pluged in.
[15:59] <xakep_inc> http://pastebin.com/m5e18bff
[16:00] <zamba> blue112: check your logs what happens when you plug it in
[16:00] <xakep_inc> here .. my main.cf
[16:00] <lieuwe> blue112->did it work before?
[16:00] <zamba> blue112: 'dmesg'
[16:00] <blue112> I'm trying to use the gt68xx scanner.
[16:00] <blue112> lieuwe: It did work.
[16:00] <blue112> When I try to scan something, it says "Invalid argument" (in french)
[16:00] <lieuwe> blue112->thats odd, try pugging it in to another usb-port
[16:00] <churl> where should i start with a WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0        in my /var/log/syslog?
[16:00] <dinesh372> ocean: tab is working but before i press enter it move to next line by double pressing tab
[16:01] <lieuwe> blue112->nvm, that wont work
[16:01] <blue112> lieuwe: I've just tried, nothing more happens.
[16:01] <blue112> nvm ?
[16:01] <lieuwe> blue112->try asking someone else:)
[16:01] <ubuntuteen> dasei:ok thank you i got one
[16:01] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:close tvtime, try http://paste.ubuntu.com/107810/  , reopen it , menu...
[16:01] <xakep_inc> Broken|Arrow_ -> (http://pastebin.com/m5e18bff) <- my main.cf  ... btw- some lines are commented out. these are other combinations that didn't work either
[16:01] <blue112> zamba: It says : [ 1989.962048] usb 1-9: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd xsane rqt 64 rq 1 len 64 ret -71

[16:02] <Blatz> Is it normal for gnome system monitor cpu graphing to eat tons of cpu?

[16:02] <churl> Blatz: how much?
[16:02] <Jeruvy> Blatz: yes, especially with a slow cpu
[16:02] <nite_johnboy> Hi - Get following error when booting up - Has red asterisk to left of message < No suitable module for running kernel > Anyone know what this means ?
[16:03] <churl> where should i start with a WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0        in my /var/log/syslog?
[16:03] <hmw> what happened to synaptic, i dont find things anymore? did something change in the last 2 months?
[16:03] <Blatz> Well, I have the Q6600 core 2 quad, I just notice that the monitor uses alot of cpu, especially when maximized
[16:03] <tr3nd> How do i make sure my graphic drivers are installed?
[16:03] <ubuntuteen> dasei:fatal : module saa7130_alsa not found
[16:04] <[[thufir]]> what could distort aspect ratio?  only resolution settings, yes?
[16:04] <rww> churl: Are you using Nvidia drivers?
[16:04] <albuntu> tr3nd: check System - Administration - Hardware Drivers and see if are enabled
[16:04] <xakep_inc> [[thufir]] - Resolution and maybe your monitor size settings
[16:04] <ubuntuteen> dasei:fatal error it did not find the module when i typed the first command
[16:05] <churl> rww: probably, i did see people mentioning it in google searches, but i dotn know how to check my drivers
[16:05] <[[thufir]]> xakep_inc: monitor settings on the monitor itself?  physical buttons?
[16:05] <xakep_inc> [[thufir]] - yeah _^_^
[16:06] <[[thufir]]> heh, ok.  aargh, I think there's been some sort of hw failure.
[16:06] <Administrator_> is there a specific channel for ubuntu help?
[16:06] <rww> churl: From looking through launchpad, it seems that message might be a little too generic. You'd probably want to look in the Xorg logs in /var/log/ and see if there's something more specific in them.
[16:06] <hmw> churl rww in rare cases i had issues with the aspect ratio on flat screens combined with bad refresh frequencies
[16:06] <rww> Administrator_: you're in it.
[16:06] <albuntu> Administrator_: this is it
[16:06] <Administrator_> k
[16:07] <Administrator_> not sure if I can describe the issue clearly, but here it goes:
