[20:30] <xphisherx> i'm outputting with a vga connection to my tv
[20:30] <k33qk> Slart:But the risk here is that while logged in as normal user, he could copy files to /tmp and then login as guest and mail them from /tmp
[20:30] <lucas> how can I send them to the repository?
[20:30] <xphisherx> does anyone have any experience with mythtv/mythubuntu?
[20:30] <kitche> lucas: you don't

[20:31] <lucas> kitche, of course I do
[20:31] <iMohseni> can anyone help to install eciadsl for DSL200 ?

[20:35] <Slart> k33qk: I meant.. what if a user brings a private laptop to work and connects it to the network?
[20:35] <acid-trip> whats the bitchx client called in Ubuntu

[20:35] <BlanzA> MINDENKI
[20:35] <Seeker`> acid-trip: what do you mean?
[20:35] <gnutron> Radit: try system > preferences > preferred appliactions.
[20:35] <acid-trip> Seeker`, when i run apt-get install bitchx
[20:35] <shane2peru> how do a I add a user to the sudoers file?
[20:35] <acid-trip> doesn't show up
[20:35] <acid-trip> it fails
[20:35] <kitche> acid-trip: bitchx :)
[20:36] <xphisherx> well i guess no one here has any info at this time.. :)  thanks anyway..
[20:36] <gnutron> shane2peru: sudo visudo
[20:36] <xphisherx> bye
[20:36] <SliMM> the only problem is that the system is on the hard disc, and i have to unmount the hard disc in order to partition it
[20:36] <Seeker`> acid-trip: have you tried running it from the command line
[20:36] <k33qk> Slart:that sounds reasonable but i am not the one who is facing the problem
[20:36] <SliMM> any suggestions?
[20:36] <DaveKong> Anyone have problems connecting to a router with BCM4401 ethernet card(wired)?
[20:36] <shane2peru> gnutron: is that vi?  I don' t do vi.
[20:36] <dhamma> my audio suddenly stopped working and i went through the audio troubleshooting guide with no luck
[20:36] <acid-trip> Seeker`, yeah
[20:36] <Slart> k33qk: well.. back to the /tmp folder.. you could always have a separate /tmp folder for the guest
[20:36] <acid-trip> i'm on ssh access to the machine
[20:36] <shane2peru> gnutron: can I sudo nanosudo?
[20:37] <Seeker`> acid-trip: Do you get any error messages?
[20:37] <robg_> SliMM: you can use gparted to examine a harddisk and edit it.
[20:37] <gnutron> shane2peru: no choice, /etc/sudoers file must be editted by visudo only.
[20:37] <unstable> How can I set it up, so "python" by default, uses python 2.4?
[20:37] <kitche> unstable: alias the command
[20:37] <acid-trip> E: Couldn't find package Bitchx
[20:37] <SliMM> robg_: it says that i have to unmount it in order to edit it
[20:37] <gnutron> shane2peru: sudo less /etc/sudoers  and read it first
[20:37] <shane2peru> gnutron: ahh, man I hate vi, it is not a simple editor, I'm sure it is powerfull, I just don't know how to use it.
[20:37] <k33qk> slart:oh..is it so?
[20:38] <kitche> acid-trip: it's bitchx not BitchX
[20:38] <Slart> k33qk: I don't really know.. I haven't tried this before.. but it should be possible
[20:38] <robg_> SliMM: you can also shut down linux and boot up gparted from CD-ROM
[20:38] <shane2peru> gnutron: how do I get out of this vi?? editor?
[20:38] <acid-trip> E: Couldn't find package bitchx
[20:38] <SliMM> robg_: well, can i just unmount the partition?
[20:38] <Seeker`> acid-trip: I dont think it is in the repos
[20:38] <Odd-rationale> shane2peru: esc, :q!
[20:38] <Seeker`> apt-cache search bitchx shows nothing
[20:38] <shane2peru> gnutron: it is so powerfull ctrl-c doesn' t even work
[20:38] <acid-trip> :/
[20:39] <gnutron> shane2peru: hit escape then :wq  will save and exit
[20:39] <arpreply> acid-trip: no more bx i noticed too...
[20:39] <Odd-rationale> shane2peru: then enter
[20:39] <acid-trip> :/
[20:39]  * acid-trip likes bitchx
[20:39] <acid-trip> lol
[20:39] <robg_> SliMM: I do not know. I always do everything with tools.
[20:39] <acid-trip> not even epic
[20:39] <acid-trip> lol
[20:39] <arpreply> acid-trip: ive been using pidgin.. actually like
[20:39] <shane2peru> Odd-rationale: thanks, I'm so not a vi person
[20:39] <acid-trip> arpreply, i'm in ssh
[20:39] <acid-trip> lol
[20:39] <Seeker`> acid-trip: have you got universe enabled?
[20:39] <acid-trip> it's epic4
[20:39] <acid-trip> lol
[20:39] <SliMM> robg_: i am not against doing it with tools, but i find it difficult if not impossible to boot from a cd
[20:40] <Odd-rationale> shane2peru: once you get used to it, you'll love it!
[20:40] <arpreply> acid-trip:  www.bitchx.com/download/ircii-pana-1.1-final.tar.gz
[20:40] <robg_> SliMM: just keep your finger on the boot options key (f*)
[20:40] <tyler> I need help with partition information
[20:40] <shane2peru> Odd-rationale: I'm a simple nano guy, or gedit, lol
[20:40] <SliMM> robg_: grub?
[20:40] <robg_> SliMM: gparted liveCD
[20:41] <tyler> I have a main partition of 10gigs for "/" and I fear it isn't enough, but I can't resize it
[20:41] <Nalleman> hi, how can I enable "mouse gestures" or something like that (so
[20:41] <rabelais> what would cause a long delay (black screen) between grub loading of kernel and the splash screen to show up (where the orange ubuntu bar is going across the screen)?
[20:41] <DOOM_NX> is there anyway to pass the sound of microphone in the virtual machine of virtualbox?
[20:41] <SliMM> robg_: in order to use it i have to boot from it, does <F*> work with GRUB?
[20:41] <kitche> acid-trip: actually it seems liek bitchx is not in the repos anymore
[20:41] <acid-trip> kitche, that kind of sucks
[20:41] <amenado> SliMM-> you can not dismount if you only have one disk and same disk is where you have your linux installed
[20:42] <lw0x15> yo i have ONE pidgin frozen window... ( i restarted pidgin) but the chat window stayed and i cant turn it off, how can i kill it ?
[20:42] <robg_> SliMM: I never work with GRUB. You force a CD boot by keeping your finger on F8.
[20:42] <kitche> acid-trip: sicne I checked the packages.ubuntu.com and only thing that comes up is epic4 among others since they have themes for it
[20:42] <rabelais> long delay, as in > 30 seconds, it only happens when I connect the computer to the tv, there is no delay when I connect the machine to an LCD display, it seems like a display probing/detection problem, can I disable that somehow?
[20:42] <gnutron> tyler: 10 gigs is enough.
[20:42] <Slart> !info bitchx
[20:42] <kitche> acid-trip: but you could use finch if you wanted to really but finch/pidgin is not really good for irc
[20:42] <SliMM> amenado: could I use a RAM Disk temporarily?
[20:43] <acid-trip> kitche, like i said i'm using ubuntu through ssh
[20:43] <acid-trip> on my personal machine i use bsd
[20:43] <acid-trip> lol
[20:43] <tyler> gnutron: but I'm doing alot of dvd ripping
[20:43] <amenado> SliMM-> you can if you know how to
[20:43] <kitche> acid-trip: and your point being finch is pidgins cli program
[20:43] <dhamma> i think i'm going to be forced to do a reinstall...the forums and irc haven't been able to help...what i would need to know at this point is if the default livecd support lvm, because my /home is mounted on an lvm partition...i think in the past, you had to d/l a special install disk
[20:43] <tyler> gnutron: is there anyway for me to allocate another partition for ubuntu and tell it to use that as well?
[20:43] <kitche> acid-trip: I know you use BSD mostly it's FreeBSD correct :)
[20:43] <Slart> for those of you looking for bitchx.. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-motu/2007-November/002726.html
[20:43] <acid-trip> yes
[20:44] <acid-trip> :D
[20:44] <SliMM> amenado: i know how to create a filesystem on a ramdisk, and mount the ramdisk
[20:44] <robg_> dhamma: a re-install destroys everything on the disk.
[20:44] <SliMM> amenado: but in a certain place under /, not as /
[20:44] <SliMM> amenado: any suggestions?
[20:44] <amenado> SliMM-> but you know you can not umount the / you have booted from
[20:44] <gnutron> tyler: you can create another partition if you have room yes
[20:45] <dhamma> robg_: / is on a 'real' partition and /home is on a seperate lvm partition
[20:45] <amenado> SliMM-> find a way to boot from cd or usb disk
[20:45] <SliMM> amenado: ok, I'll have to hope F8 will work then, thanks
[20:45] <tyler> gnutron: Lol I know I can create another partition, but I want ubuntu to move it's /tmp directory to another partition
[20:45] <KRaZy_WaKa> this may be offtopic or not, what is a public key and how do i get one? if it is off-topic could somebody point me in the right direction please?
[20:45] <robg_> dhamma: I never use GRUB. If I re-install I simply create an empty space and install into it,
[20:46] <kibibyte> hi i have problem built-in microhone , speeakers are working, i have sound but i cannot record any soound , its SB600 soundcard
[20:46] <Slart> KRaZy_WaKa: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography
[20:46] <lw0x15> yo i have ONE pidgin frozen window... ( i restarted pidgin) but the chat window stayed and i cant turn it off, how can i kill it ?
[20:46] <dhamma> robg_: i've used grub and lilo for years without problems
[20:46] <kibibyte> help
[20:46] <robg_> dhamma: fine then go ahead and do it.
[20:46] <tyler> gnutron: When I tell k9copy to use another folder for its tmp files I get errors
[20:46] <Slart> lw0x15: xkill and click on the offending window
[20:46] <gnutron> tyler: that should be done during installation, as for 'moving' /tmp, that may be tricky.
[20:46] <dhamma> what i need to know is whether or not the livecd supports lvm...anyone know?
[20:46] <amenado> KRaZy_WaKa-> you can create one with the openssl tools, man openssl, but for detailed explain, you have to google for a tutorial
[20:46] <KRaZy_WaKa> TY Slart
[20:46] <tdawgedogg> does anyone know of a good guide for setting up sql through amarok?
[20:46] <Slart> lw0x15: xkill -9 to stop asking nicely and just murder it
[20:47] <lw0x15> lol ok thanks
[20:47] <KRaZy_WaKa> and amenadoi
[20:47] <lw0x15> thanks Slart :)
[20:47] <KRaZy_WaKa> trying to get pidgin IRC set up to run tor
[20:47] <lw0x15> god i love linux
[20:47] <lw0x15> lol
[20:47] <KRaZy_WaKa> man is this a pain in the @ss
[20:47] <bmhm> hi all
[20:47] <bmhm> how do i start a program in a different language?
[20:47] <dhamma> in the past you had to download a different install cd for lvm support, but i don't know if that's still the case
[20:48] <bmhm> LANG="XX_XX" works with oowriter, but nothing else
[20:48] <amenado> dhamma-> i dont think liveCd supports it, perhaps the alternate cd do
[20:49] <kibibyte> how to execute script with sudo ?
[20:50] <Starnestommy> kibibyte: sudo ./script
[20:50] <Slart> kibibyte: sudo sh scriptname.. or sudo bash scriptname
[20:50] <kibibyte> bartosz@bartosz-laptop:~$ sudo ./alsa-info.sh
[20:50] <kibibyte> sudo: ./alsa-info.sh: command not found
[20:50] <Starnestommy> kibibyte: try sudo sh script
[20:50] <bmhm> how to start a programm in a different language?
[20:51] <rabelais> kibibyte, it probably doesn't have execute permission set, try chmod 755 alsa-info.sh and then try again
[20:51] <kibibyte> ok
[20:51] <k31to> how do I get the default wifi drivers to load during startup
[20:53] <yedda2>  for my custom mount script, how can I test if some device is mounted? needed for unmount command in stop() .. yes, I know, it appears in mount, but testing for mount | grep | /mnt/my_mountpoint  is just a bit wacky *g (#!/bin/ash)
[20:53] <jadams_> so I have some imagemagick versions that I built from source, and I'd like to delete them (having IM problems, want to just reinstall only from apt)
[20:53] <jadams_> can someone tell me, can I just remove the files/folders from /usr/lib without wreaking havoc?
[20:53] <bascule> no
[20:53] <Starnestommy> jadams_: it's impossible
[20:53] <Slart> jadams_: I don't think so
[20:54] <Starnestommy> jadams_: almost every program uses something that's in there
[20:54] <Slart> yedda2: you can check in /etc/mtab
[20:54] <fde> jadams_: Chances are if you compiled from source, it didn't go to /usr/lib ...
[20:54] <mad_max02> !install
[20:54] <S4nD3r> Is there someone from dev ubuntu here?
[20:54] <kurugah> robg_: re, i booted with another distro it worked so its not a hw issue of some kind is there any way i can reset all my network stuff to a working state?
[20:54] <fde> S4nD3r: What do you need to talk to them about?
[20:54] <jadams_> fde: I just got it fixed actually, surprisingly
[20:54] <jadams_> just built from source with --prefix=/usr, ldconfig'ed, and reinstalled rmagick and it's all better
[20:54] <jadams_> thanks though
[20:55] <amenado> kurugah-> you can try /etc/init.d/networking restart and if it resets
[20:55] <S4nD3r> when I run normal boot (first choice) in grub, my gnome do not shows nothing in screen
[20:55] <robg_> kurugah: you may have messed up the install. A failed network connection is often a first sign of that.
[20:55] <lw0x15> hmm..how can i make my bar at the bottom a bit wider ?
[20:55] <Starnestommy> jadams_: it's better to use --prefix=/usr/local for compiled programs
[20:55] <S4nD3r> I have a inspiron 1525, that was working properly in first instalation.
[20:55] <S4nD3r> can you help me ?
[20:55] <fde> S4nD3r: Devs are busy people, not there to assist you with support issues...
[20:56] <S4nD3r> so
[20:56] <S4nD3r> then, tell me
[20:56] <lw0x15> dont be too rude
[20:56] <lw0x15> lol
[20:56] <kurugah> robg_: it worked till today. do you really think i have to reinstall?
[20:56] <fde> S4nD3r: Do any other Ubuntu boot options work fine? Do you get a GUI? What platform?
[20:56] <JonSnow> hi
[20:56] <S4nD3r> WHich application runs after recovery mode?
[20:56] <genii> bash
[20:56] <robg_> kurugah: can't say. Find a pratical solution to the problem.
[20:56] <Starnestommy> S4nD3r: the bash shell, running as root
[20:57] <troy_thetechguy> My screen went blank & the lights on my keyboard are gone.  Is there a way to start my gui again, without loosing what I have on my desktop?
[20:57] <S4nD3r> because, in recovery mode, I  just hit ESC, then some services is runned, then gnome is showed normally
[20:57] <JonSnow> i was wondering if theres an easy way to get the nautilus "extract here" option, since i installed all the graphical system starting from a terminal only instalation
[20:57] <kurugah> robg_:  are there any logs that could be of use nailing the problem down?
[20:57] <DIL> lw0x15: right click on bar properties -expand
[20:58] <robg_> kurugah: you would have to ask a Linux nerd in the room.
[20:58] <movedx> OK, what's required to get Perl/CGI support working on Ubuntu Hardy?
[20:58] <k31to> kurugah: you should never* have to reinstall
[20:58] <SuN13> i downloaded the recommeded update from the update manager yesterday i guess some nvidia driver update was included and now my video is not working like before i just get generic vga ...i uninstalled the nvidia new driver and installed it and also did the same with the restricted driver but no luck?
[20:58] <movedx> I have Apache2 installed; I have libapache2-mod-perl2 installed
[20:58] <movedx> Yet, Perl scripts are served to me as a download, and not executed.
[20:58] <movedx> I've checked permissions, changed the ScriptAlias path, etc
[20:59] <kibibyte> whereis alsaconfig command in ubuntu?
[20:59] <macd> movedx, refer to the DirectoryIndex directive in the apache2.conf file.
[20:59] <sensae> Does anyone know why Nautilus and Rhythmbox would be incorrectly reading ID3 tags?
[20:59] <LordMetroid> how do I create a link?
[20:59] <macd> movedx, i.e. add index.pl
[20:59] <Starnestommy> movedx: you might need ExecCGI in the Oprions lines in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
[20:59] <Slart> kibibyte: there is a asoundconf command.. is that what you want?
[20:59] <kurugah> k31to: do u have any idea why my eth0 stopped working suddenly? what can i do to find information what is not working?
[20:59] <movedx> Starnestommy: That's already there by default
[20:59] <Slart> LordMetroid: ln -s
[20:59] <LordMetroid> Slart: Thank you
[20:59] <k31to> kurugah: dmesg have any clues?
[21:00] <frojnd> how can I check what graphic card do I have in command line ?
[21:00] <kibibyte> Slart, no in debian i run command alsaconf and itconfigured my sound card and i hadsound
[21:01] <kibibyte> in ubuntu there is no alsaconf
[21:01] <jadams_> frojnd, lspci
[21:01] <Slart> kibibyte: this isn't debian
[21:01] <kibibyte> Slart, so how to force alsa to detect soundcards
[21:01] <kibibyte> ??
[21:01] <fde> S4nD3r: friendly-recovery is responsible.
[21:01] <mad_max02> can anyone help me with creating installation USB for kubuntu 8.04 ???
[21:02] <mad_max02> I followed some guides but I have no luck
[21:02] <kurugah> k31to: can i dump the output somewhere and u have a look?
[21:02] <Slart> kibibyte: you could try restarting alsa-utils.. I don't know if that goes through the whole detection routine though
[21:02] <lw0x15> DIL, i see do you know how to make it higher lol "fatter"
[21:02] <sensae> Anyone? Tags in Nautilus?
[21:02] <Slart> kibibyte: you might just be forced to do a reboot..
[21:02] <mad_max02> !install
[21:02] <S4nD3r> ok
[21:02] <Alan_M> !anyone
[21:03] <S4nD3r> but, when I run this friendly recover, I do nothing, just hit ESC, then my system works properly (gnome is showed in my screen)
[21:03] <sensae> How does Nautilus and Rhythmbox read ID3 tags?
[21:03] <Luhta> how can I find out what device a usb flash stick is that won't mount?
[21:03] <DIL> lw0x15: increase from 24 to 50 or your pref.
[21:03] <k31to> kurugah: i might not be much help I'm afraid as I have my own network related woes.  are there no obvious lan related entries?.  you can post to pastebin

Tried with the resricted drivers menu, rebooted, same thing.  Then tried ENVY, same theing, 800X600.  And the wierd thing is when it reboots, I get the ubantu logo with progress bar in the correct graphics mode and size....   Any ideas?

[21:12] <limac> guys, how do you kill X in ubuntu
[21:12] <Jaikkuli> fde:  i dont use that.. i use the compacted version.. :) worked it out.. thanks
[21:12] <Starnestommy> limac: ctrl+alt+backspace
[21:12] <amenado> timholum-> is there another command you run after you set the static ip address?
[21:12] <fde> limac: just log out... or type 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop'
[21:12] <limac> Starnestommy: that logs me out
[21:12] <Rothun_> it
[21:12] <fde> limac: ctrl+alt+backspace is bad.
[21:12] <timholum_home> nope i just edit /etc/network/interfaces
[21:12] <CHC> when i try goto computer it says nautilus cannot handle computer: locations. i am running ubuntu 8.04
[21:12] <SATA> I want to create my own custom ubuntu by relpacing the kernel. What should i do to replace it?
[21:12] <timholum_home> and then i edited /etc/resolv.conf
[21:13] <fde> You should NOT use ctrl+alt+backspace unless your X is frozen, and you can't get to a console at all.
[21:13] <x-punk> I'm having problems with both sound and flash in Hardy. for instance, when using the adobe flash player in firefox, the sound stops working. fixed that by installing libflashsupport. however, libflashsupport seems to crash firefox when playing flash content. is there a workaround for this or do I simply have to chose what to have (either sound or working flash)?
[21:13] <amenado> timholum-> but then you still have to activate your interface right after?
[21:13] <limac> fde: ok thanks you, that is going to put me in the CLI right, because I have to install my nVdia drivers and it requires X to be shut off
[21:13] <fde> Either log out... or /etc/init.d/gdm restart etc
[21:13] <SuN13> scorch: i have the same problem im stuck in vga generic mode
[21:13] <timholum_home> my static ip stays
[21:13] <timholum_home> only the resolv.conf is changing
[21:13] <fde> limac: yup... then just '/etc/init.d/gdm start' when you're done setting it up.
[21:14] <amenado> SATA  google for remastering ubuntu
[21:14] <scorch_> Sunl3: same graphics card?
[21:14] <limac>  fde: and getting back in X is startx for ubuntu too right?
[21:14] <limac> fde:  oh nm
[21:14] <SATA> amenado, i did it?
[21:14] <fde> limac: ctrl + alt + backspace will just respawn x ... not useful  :P
[21:14] <amenado> timholum-> but then you still have to activate your interface right after? <-- yes or no?
[21:14] <sensae> What ID3v does Rhythmbox/Nautilus default to reading?

[21:15] <Alan_M> limac, check our "home room" I have a website on it for you :)
[21:15] <amenado> SATA-> you created the iso?  you can mount it to verify the contents
[21:16] <sensae> fde: Well that's really odd. I can open the files in Ex Falso or MusicBrainz and the right tags are there. Nautilus and Rhythmbox insist that tag data doesn't exist, and won't write new tag data
[21:16] <SATA> amenado, it just helped to add packages. replacing kernel ???
[21:16] <Housefly7k> I am having an issue, pressing CTR+ALT+RIGHT registers multiple instance of that....can be seen here http://pastebin.com/m4d15258d where i pressed RIGHT 3 times but it registered over 20 instances of it in xev.... any odeas or directions to where I should go check for this issue?
[21:16] <sensae> fde: And this is only for part of my music collection

[21:16] <MAHerron> hey has anyone here set up dual monitors with mergedFB for an ATI radeon graphics card... every time i try to edit xorg.conf it eff's up the config and i have to revert to the backup
[21:16] <amenado> SATA you can too, but you have to learn how to compile the kernel and make the necessary linkage
[21:17] <kibibyte> how to compile alsa from sources in ubuntu
[21:17] <SATA> amenado, is Adding the package== make it install by default at installation time?
[21:17] <limac> brb
[21:17] <kibibyte> \
[21:17] <kibibyte> ds
[21:17] <Housefly7k> CTRL+ALT+LEFT has the opposite problem, sometime pressing it doesnt register anything at all...
[21:17] <Starnestommy> frojnd: are you usiung a nvidia card?
[21:17] <Starnestommy> *using
[21:17] <jah> hello...
[21:17] <MAHerron> hello
[21:17] <Alan_M> sorry if that was a bit non-helpful guys, was meaning for limac to check #ubuntuforums-beginners as I gave him a website before he came here.
[21:17] <SATA> amenado, I have compiled kernel.
[21:17] <jah> hmm, which app do you guys recommen for playing mp3s?
[21:17] <amenado> SATA i already advised you, once you make the iso, you can mount it first and verify the contents.. check  whatever package you added is there
[21:17] <MAHerron> there are many apps for mp3
[21:18] <fde> jah: Rhythmbox ... install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras'
[21:18] <MAHerron> that works
[21:18] <hak5fan> jah:  xmms or amarok
[21:18] <MAHerron> i like amarok
[21:18] <Alan_M> !best
[21:18] <fde> All of these play MP3's with ubuntu-restricted-extras installed
[21:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Housefly7k HAve you tried turning off compiz?
[21:18] <fde> jah: Make your own decision on the matter later!
[21:19] <jah> well Im trying amarok.. but its crashing way too often...
[21:19] <jah> so I tried to install xmms as you just said...
[21:19] <jah> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[21:19] <jah> is only available from another source
[21:19] <fde> jah: XMMS isn't in Ubuntu.
[21:19] <askand>  Is someone in here able to reproduce bug 235307?
[21:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter | jah
[21:19] <fde> jah: Just use Rhythmbox it is default, and has good functionality, and is stable.
[21:19] <MAHerron> jah: do amarok
[21:19] <sensae> Okay well, screw the whole tags thing - if Amarok works right, then I'll use Amarok.
[21:19] <Housefly7k> Jack_Sparrow: doing it now
[21:19] <scorch_> anyone had and video driver problems when upgrade in 7.10 to 8.4?
[21:19] <fde> sensae: haha
[21:19] <Kl4m> jah: xmms --> audacious
[21:20] <jah> sorry Jack_Sparrow
[21:20] <fde> scorch_: lots... what is your specific issue?
[21:20] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[21:20] <sensae> It leads me to my next problem though - Amarok doesn't detect my iPod, though the rest of my system does.
[21:20] <SATA> amenado, thanx. One thing  more ,,, after adding a package (probably in extras) does it mean to auto install the package during the installation of dist from that iso?
[21:20] <MAHerron> anyone know about setting up xorg.conf for mergedFB/ dual monitors with an ATI Radeon
[21:21] <hak5fan> Just out of intrest does someone know if linuxing an ipod will make it easier for linux to detect?
[21:21] <thebishop> I've got a Toshiba laptop, and Ubuntu won't boot unless I disable the wired Ethernet card, Wireless works fine
[21:21] <Housefly7k> Jack_Sparrow: Same problem with compiz disabled
[21:21] <amenado> SATA if you have not modified the debian installer inside that remastered sys..those packages will not be installed
[21:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Housefly7k I dont have an answer, I just had that one thought on the subject
[21:22] <MAHerron> anyone know about setting up xorg.conf for mergedFB/ dual monitors with an ATI Radeon
[21:22] <SATA> amendo, any hint to modify that?
[21:22] <fde> Housefly7k: What is the issue? Apologies, I didn't catch it earler.
[21:22] <fde> !repeat | MAHerron
[21:22] <Jack_Sparrow> MAHerron Hold off on repeating quite so often thaks.  If someone knows they will answer
[21:22] <MAHerron> apologies for repetition
[21:22] <Housefly7k> fde: pressing CTR+ALT+RIGHT registers multiple instance of that....can be seen here http://pastebin.com/m4d15258d where i pressed RIGHT 3 times but it registered over 20 instances of it in xev...
[21:23] <scorch_> fde: boots up in low graphics mode...  tried fixing with restriced drivers and ENVY.  Still boots in low.  However when it reboots the status bar and logo are in the correct graphics mode
[21:23] <ey3c4milz> exit
[21:23] <amenado> SATA the remastering ubuntu should have covered that topic? if not, google for ubiquity and debian installer..depends on which cd you have modified..also you can look into debootstrap
[21:23] <amigrave> got the same problem mentioned here : https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/135738   , the follow-up on the page says the bug has been resolved, but I still have the issue with final hardy 8.04

[21:23] <MrBill> I have an 8GB USB stick that is formatted NTFS, I use it to hop some files back and forth between my install of Hardy and WinXP on another system. Up until last week when I wanted to unmount it i woudl right click it on my desktop and select "unmount volume" which would result in it dissapearing a second later so I knew I could unplug it. I'm now not getting an icon for it at all on my desktop, and when i go into my file browser and right click i
[21:23] <MrBill> t in the "computer" window it does not dissapear after I select unmount volume. Anyone have any thoughts to what may be happening?

[21:29] <Soopa> i made a symbolic link, but that didn't work

[21:30] <STSX> k31to: Just put your module in the /etc/modules file and it should get loaded on booting up.
[21:30] <pds> jjlee: uhh? ok, can you help me set up a cron job?
[21:30] <fde> harpreet: you have to install 'sun-java6-plugin' ... have you already installed 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' ?
[21:31] <k31to> Flare183: the bot used to tell you where ot ask about factoids when there was no entry.  it was helpful. someone should put it back. ;)
[21:31] <K-4U> So.. i'm back!!! How to connect to a wireless network trought the terminal? Xserver won't install somehow...
[21:31] <DIL> why is it that linux themes are always animals
[21:31] <troxor> pds: easy way: shell script in /etc/cron.daily
[21:31] <Brutus> can anyone help me? when i start xchat-gnome, it automaticly closes the application. when i try to start it from the terminal, it says "Segmentation fault". i removed the application with synaptic, and reinstalled it, i fully updates my system, rebooted twice
[21:31] <jjlee> yedda2: ugh, now you're asking... you need whitespace around the [ and ] I think, for a start
[21:31] <DvDongeren> fde: Alright thanks, i was hoping i could go around my repo error -_-
[21:31] <Jack_Sparrow> scorch_ Not sure as I am not on a Hardy box atm... and cant do it from memory  I would assume envyng will pull what ever other parts it needs
[21:31] <troxor> pds: hard/annoying way: crontab -e
[21:31] <k31to> STSX: I am curious as to why this used to load without such an entry?
[21:31] <fde> harpreet: The latter depends something that breaks sun-java6-plugin, so it's important if you want games.yahoo.com to work
[21:31] <harpreet> fde; kitche, i have it installed but still dont work
[21:31] <sensae> Erm
[21:31] <sensae> in my File Management window, I can't set Amarok as default music player. What gives?
[21:32] <pds> troxor: is there a easy non annoying way? I tried using kcron, but it didn't work.
[21:32] <kitche> harpreet: you will have to restart your web browser after installing it
[21:32] <STSX> k31to: Do you have it blacklisted? Check /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist first.
[21:32] <Brutus> i found out that segmentation is that it can't access a part of my memmory. the memmory is fine though. i ran a mem-test a week ago
[21:32] <harpreet> kitche, i did that too
[21:32] <jjlee> yedda2: why the double quotes and backticks around the umount command?
[21:32] <Jack_Sparrow> sensae system pref prefered apps
[21:32] <k31to> STSX: no removed all blacklisted items
[21:32] <troxor> pds: see my first message
[21:32] <fde> harpreet: sudo aptitude purge icedtea-gcjwebplugin
[21:32] <troxor> pds: shell script in /etc/cron.____
[21:32] <yedda2> jjlee: that's how I read it in some howtos
[21:32] <Housefly7k> How do i go about renaming the label of a NTFS volume?
[21:32] <jjlee> pds: what do you want to do exactly?
[21:32] <jjlee> yedda2: what are you trying to do?
[21:33] <yedda2> jjlee: I guess only double quotes would suffice
[21:33] <troxor> pds: and of course, make sure the perms are right
[21:33] <stroyan> Soopa:  If you mean that you are using an ftp client and want to create a file system link on the remote server, then you can't do that.  Ftp does not have protocol for creating links
[21:33] <k31to> STSX: it was never on the blacklist the br43 and ssb were (both broadcom!) don't know why the acx card worked before hand!
[21:33] <Housefly7k> Or do I just do it from windows and it gets recognised in ubuntu the new name
[21:33] <fde> Housefly7k: That would work, probably... yes
[21:33] <sensae> Jack_Sparrow: Well I set that to amarok but in file management it still doesn't give me the option
[21:33] <fde> Housefly7k: NTFS support on linux is still pretty weak.
[21:33] <Georgij> i dont get it how can i install w32codec???????????????????
[21:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Housefly7k Or you can just create a new mount point with a descriptive name..
[21:33] <pds> troxor: oh i didn't see that first meessage, thanks
[21:33] <jjlee> yedda2: if [ true ] ; then echo 'yep' ; else echo 'nope'; fi
[21:33] <gnutron> sensae: system > preferences > preferred applications and set it.
[21:33] <jrib> !w32codec > Georgij (read the private message from ubottu)
[21:33] <jjlee> play with that
[21:34] <pds> troxor: i added a line to /etc/crontab
[21:34] <pds> troxor: that seems to have done the trick
[21:34] <STSX> k31to: I don't know why its not loading then. Make sure your ndiswrapper module is uninstalled so it won't conflict with it at least.
[21:34] <pds> troxor: thanks for the help
[21:34] <jjlee> yedda2: /bin/false is also handy for this :-)
[21:34] <Georgij> why do i have to read a 10000 line page if i wanna watch a simple movie=
[21:34] <Housefly7k> Jack_Sparrow: create a new mount point for an exisiting volume?
[21:34] <yedda2> jjlee: thanks
[21:34] <fde> Georgij: What kinda movie?
[21:34] <Georgij> why do i have to waste 3 hours to watch a 1 hour movie?
[21:35] <k31to> STSX: it was installed out of the box.  i have removed ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 though and the gtk frontend
[21:35] <troxor> pds: np
[21:35] <Georgij> can u just tell me how to get w32codec
[21:35] <jrib> Georgij: because you want to watch a movie with codecs that microsoft does not like to share?
[21:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Housefly7k Yes, and change your fstab to reflect the change
[21:35] <k31to> STSX: gonna restart and see if that helps. thanks anyhow
[21:35] <sensae> gnutron: I did do that. Now it's set to Amarok. However, in file management I still only get the option of banshee, rhythmbox and do nothing. When I plug in my iPod it still launches rhythmbox
[21:35] <Georgij> cant i just apt-get install something
[21:35] <fde> !medibuntu | Georgij
[21:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Georgij The link has all the info
[21:35] <jrib> Georgij: yes, the thing ubottu told you about.
[21:35] <Georgij> but its a freaking<PHONE_NUMBER> lined page
[21:35] <Soopa> stroyan: my proftpd runs as FTP-user. I want to login as that user, but still be able to get to the path /mnt/itunes
[21:36] <fde> Georgij: Go there, set up the repo, the page tells you how to get the codecs too
[21:36] <STSX> k31to: How do you know it's not being loaded? Are you using "lsmod" or something else? Just curious.
[21:36] <harpreet> fde, it removed icedtea java 7 plugin i had and also removed restricted ones and installed new 6 but still doesnt work
[21:36] <Jack_Sparrow> !attitude | Georgij
[21:36] <Soopa> is that possible?
[21:36] <my_haz> Soopa: yes
[21:36] <jrib> Georgij: it's really not, use the medibuntu repo.  You just add the repo and install the w32codec package.  You could have done it by now :)
[21:36] <gnutron> sensae: you may need to restart X, or atleast the filemanager, try right-clicking the file and choose app that way.
[21:36] <k31to> Georgij: lol.  you have been helped it is easy from there on in
[21:36] <fde> harpreet: can you pastebin the output of: ls /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins
[21:36] <fde> !paste
[21:37] <Mus> Hi guys.  How to list all serial ports via shell on ubuntu?
[21:37] <sensae> gnutron: I'm not trying to change what is used to open a certain file, I'm trying to change what launches when I plug in my iPod
[21:37] <Soopa> my_haz: when i create a symbolic link, though, i can't see it when i ftp in
[21:37] <Gman99999> Does anyone know how to fix a microphone problem in hardy heron with an HP laptop, my microphone used to work and now it no longer does, I've looked for the sound control buttons and such and its not muted from where I can see, does anyone know where I can find it?
[21:37] <kitche> sensae: it's a udev rule you need to add
[21:37] <Georgij> i dont see where is the w32codec?
[21:37] <my_haz> Mus: like `sudo scanpci`
[21:37] <my_haz> ?
[21:37] <troxor> Mus: `ls /dev/ttyS*` <-- samething like that?
[21:37] <harpreet> fde ; flashplugin-alternative.so   libtotem-cone-plugin.xpt
[21:37] <harpreet> libjavaplugin.so             libtotem-gmp-plugin.so

[21:37] <troxor> something*
[21:37] <jrib> Georgij: did you enable the medibuntu repo?  That's the first step
[21:37] <sensae> kitche: Ok?
[21:37] <kitche> !w32codecs | Georgij
[21:37] <Georgij> i want a big fat text that says DOWNLOAD W32CODEC DEB PACK HERE
[21:38] <Georgij> lol
[21:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Mus Find the ports by going to a terminal and typing dmesg | grep ttyS
[21:38] <k31to> Georgij: you add the repo then do sudo apt-get update  && sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[21:38] <fde> harpreet: I said pastebin ... not here
[21:38] <k31to> Georgij: perhaps ubuntu isn't for you lol
[21:38] <my_haz> Soopa: it depends on if you let pureftp follow symbolic links and the permissions ont the directories (as based on the user loggin in)
[21:38] <Soopa> ohhh, okay
[21:38] <fde> harpreet: can you pastebin the output of: ls -l /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libjavaplugin.so please
[21:39] <Soopa> my_haz: thanks, i'll look at proftpd docs
[21:39] <kitche> sensae: look up this Ipod and Udev and exec program it should show you what you need to add to do what you want it might not be Ubuntu specific but you can convert it pretty easy to the ubuntu/debian way
[21:39] <my_haz> Soopa: proftp or pureftp?
[21:40] <Georgij> k31to it has its good points
[21:40] <Georgij> windows had too many bad points
[21:40] <fde> sensae: Go to Places > Home ... Edit > Preferences ... "Media" tab... "Music Player" ... change that
[21:40] <Georgij> so i went to ubuntu
[21:40] <stu> guys, I downloaded the source for ubuntu-modules and edited appleir.c to update the device ID for my iMac remote control. I installed the deb package I built and the remote worked... now after a reboot it's stopped working - re-installing the deb package now does not fix the remote - any ideas???
[21:40] <Georgij>  what repo?
[21:40] <sensae> fde: Amarok is conveniently missing from the list
[21:40] <jrib> !who | Georgij
[21:41] <hanth1> Georgij: When you try to download a deb package the packagemanager only knows where to find it because it has a list of repositories (collections of packages). If you want to download from a repository that Ubuntu is not allowed to include by default it makes sense that you have to add a new repository manually. It is quite easy once you get the hang of it and it will be very useful to you later on, which is why people here want you to learn it :
[21:41] <Georgij> there isnt a repo for hardy
[21:41] <fde> sensae: "ask what to do" ... then select amarok when it does so
[21:41] <Georgij> so i took 7.10 insted
[21:41] <harpreet> where do i paste it fde? i dont know
[21:41] <jrib> Georgij: there is.  Use medibuntu
[21:41] <my_haz> Georgij: yes there is i just did it this morning
[21:41] <genii> stu: Likely you need to insert the module for it
[21:42] <thekip_> Georgij -> administration -> software sources
[21:42] <stu> genii: the module is loaded
[21:42] <sensae> fde: It still gives me the same options
[21:42] <Georgij> I swear to god after i ve done this it wont still work
[21:42] <scorch_> jack_sparrow:  Did not work...  Any other ideas?
[21:42] <thekip_> Georgij -> 3rd party sources, add medibuntu repo there
[21:42] <genii> stu: Is it a USB device?
[21:42] <fde> harpreet: It should only be one line... so yes
[21:42] <Georgij> i did this it worked now i can watch my movie ? sudo apt-get update  && sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[21:42] <Jack_Sparrow> scorch_ nope
[21:42] <thekip_> Georgij -> sudo apt-get update
[21:42] <harpreet> fde, it says no such file or directory
[21:43] <my_haz> Georgij: Georgij i added `deb http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy free non-free` and then i installed the w32 stuff
[21:43] <stu> genii: lsmod | grep apple gives me appleir                 7040  0
[21:43] <jrib> Georgij: depends on whether you enabled the repository first...
[21:43] <thekip_> Georgij 0> sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[21:43] <stu> genii: yes its a USB device
[21:43] <scorch_> Anyone have a low graphic mode problem after 7.10 to 8.04 upgrade?
[21:43] <stroyan> Soopa:  Your proftpd may be using chroot which will prevent symbolic links from working.  See http://www.castaglia.org/proftpd/doc/contrib/ProFTPD-mini-HOWTO-Chroot.html for details on using "mount -o bind" instead.
[21:43] <Georgij> i have w32codec now
[21:43] <stu> genii: and I have reloaded usbhid as well
[21:43] <eventmaster> hello can somebody say me a program, for .ccf files
[21:43] <Georgij> Can i look my video now?
[21:43] <genii> stu: Unplug it, wait 10 seconds. Replug it. Then see if dmesg reports anything about it.
[21:43] <thekip_> Georgij: how about trying?
[21:43] <alexi5> Georgij:you could be watching that movie right now and enjoying your bow of popped corn
[21:43] <Georgij> WOHO!
[21:44] <Georgij> THANKS
[21:44] <thekip_> lol
[21:44] <thekip_> how can we tell :P
[21:44] <my_haz> alexi5: "bow of popcorn" does that have +5 damage (explode)
[21:44] <jedimind> hey ... since the last set of updates this morning, my virtualbox doesnt want to launch windows any more stating: VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel, e.g. virtualbox-ose-modules-generic.."
[21:44] <stu> genii:  I can't unplug it as its built into the machine... upon usbhid restart I see the following in dmesg: [  458.002971] hiddev96hidraw2: USB HID v1.11 Device [Apple Computer, Inc. IR Receiver] on usb-0000:00:1d.2-1
[21:44] <jedimind> ive installed the virtualbox-ose-modules-generic package, but no go
[21:44] <my_haz> alexi5: add butter gives +5 poison heart damage
[21:44] <Slart> eventmaster: ccf = Cannondale Motorcycle ECM System Engine Calibration File ?or something else?
[21:44] <alexi5> my_haz: haha.mean 'bowl'
[21:44] <thekip_> jedimind: do exactly as told
[21:45] <jedimind> thekip_: i did, it still refuses to run
[21:45] <jedimind> pudly@lappy:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv start
[21:45] <jedimind>  * Starting VirtualBox kernel module vboxdrv
[21:45] <jedimind>  * No suitable module for running kernel found.
[21:45] <STSX> jedimind: Maybe give the #vbox channel, they might be more knowledgeable about your problem.
[21:45] <thekip_> I ran into the same, here's a post about it: http://www.thekip.nl/2008/05/15/virtualbox-running-smoothly/
[21:45] <harpreet> fde, No such file or Directory
[21:45] <genii> stu: After you installed the deb did you do the depmod -a to update the module list?
[21:46] <alexi5> my_haz:what about the damage over time it does before the final hart damage tick
[21:46] <jedimind> thekip_: thanks i'll take a look
[21:46] <thekip_> I don't know if it's exactly the same however but you could give it a try
[21:46] <stu> genii: no... but it did work after I installed the .deb - until I rebooted
[21:46] <lw0x15> whats a good alternative to pidgin for MSn
[21:46] <my_haz> alexi5: thats in the expansion set
[21:46] <fde> harpreet: I saw the first time... please type it correctly
[21:46] <stu> lw0x15: pidgin, its already installed
[21:46] <thekip_> is there anyone who knows how to completely reconfigure libapache2-mod-php5
[21:46] <alexi5> my_haz:haha
[21:46] <Slart> !msn | lw0x15
[21:46] <izzyb_> how do I edit the "open with" list in kde3.5?
[21:46] <harpreet> fde, ls: cannot access /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libjavaplugin: No such file or directory
[21:47] <Jack_Sparrow> lw0x15 amsn
[21:47] <genii> stu: Maybe you need a corresponding udev rule for the vendor:device
[21:47] <thekip_> all my configs can be overwritten but I just want to get php5 to work again (I did a test with mono but can't get php to work again)
[21:47] <Slart> lw0x15: ok.. that wasn't very helpful.. amsn is one.. there might be others
[21:47] <Slart> !im | lw0x15
[21:47] <Slart> bah..
[21:47] <stu> genii: yes I did that by editing appleir.c before I built the .deb
[21:47] <stu> thekip_: dpkg --reconfigure libapache2-mod-php5
[21:47] <thekip_> stu doesn't work
[21:48] <fde> harpreet: Like I said, type it correctly... there is .so on the end.
[21:48] <stu> thekip_: try apt-get remote it and then dpkg --purge to purge the config and then reinstall it
[21:48] <thekip_> what i've tried: apt-get remove, apt-get purge, dpkg-reconfigure
[21:48] <stu> thekip_: i.e dpkg --purge libapache2-mod-php5
[21:48] <jedimind> no help :\
[21:48] <harpreet> fde, output is: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 45 2008-05-26 13:17 /usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libjavaplugin.so -> /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so
[21:48] <my_haz> thekip_: i missed your initial problem, what did you do to mess up php?
[21:48] <thekip_> did that, I supposed that SHOULD have done the trick but it didn't
[21:49] <my_haz> thekip_: and does it work without the apache?
[21:49] <stu> genii: I had to edit applir.c to change the device id from 8240 to 8242... this is how I got it to work originally.... but then like I said, its just stopped working again now
[21:49] <Starnestommy> jedimind: I think there was a problem with the recent kernel update and virtualbox
[21:49] <thekip_> I tried to get mod-mono running (which removed all my php settings)
[21:49] <alienbrain> my mplayer picture freezes, all the controls of mplayer are working, even forward/backward, and I can see the picture change, but it's freezed. I press pause/play, nothing moves. It's like I'm browsing the frames manually. Any hints?
[21:49] <fde> harpreet: please ls -l /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so now
[21:49] <stu> alienbrain: right click preferences - video - choose X11 and then restart mplayer
[21:49] <my_haz> thekip_: i have no idea, never even heard of that mod
[21:49] <thekip_> mod-mono was running perfectly but now I can't get php to run again
[21:49] <siriusblack> hey
[21:49] <lw0x15> Slart, hmm.. ok i see i wanna change pidgin cuz it keeps on closing down without no reason randomly
[21:49] <thekip_> it's the Apache ASP mod
[21:49] <siriusblack> how do i format a drive from ubuntu?
[21:50] <jedimind> Starnestommy: got a url to a workaround by chance ? im sure its got something to do with the latest updates
[21:50] <thekip_> just for testing purposes
[21:50] <thekip_> full name libapache2-mod-mono
[21:50] <alienbrain> stu: I tried -vo x11 and gl, gl2 and xv
[21:50] <my_haz> thekip_: what error is php giving?
[21:50] <Slart> lw0x15: might be the sound.. try disabling sound and see if it works better
[21:50] <alienbrain> (I use the command line version)
[21:50] <Starnestommy> jedimind: you'll need to wait a while for the right virtualbox-ose-modules-<kernel-version> package to be available
[21:50] <harpreet> fde output: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 2008-05-27 13:33 /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so -> /usr/lib/gcj-4.2-81/libgcjwebplugin.so

[21:50] <jedimind> ah
[21:50] <jedimind> well crap
[21:50] <jedimind> lol
[21:50] <my_haz> thekip_: try <?php echo "test"; ?>
[21:50] <thekip_> so it's not even running I guess (apache doesn't load)

[21:50] <thekip_> nope nothing
[21:50] <stu> alienbrain: not sure then soz
[21:50] <beltran> #planeshift
[21:50] <thekip_> phpinfo -> nothing
[21:50] <beltran> oops sorry
[21:51] <my_haz> thekip_: it could be as simple as not being able to do <? echo "foo"; ?>
[21:51] <alienbrain> stu: no probs mate :)
[21:51] <Slart> lw0x15: or try setting the sound to alsa.. not automatic
[21:51] <beltran> trying to change channels but new to irc
[21:51] <thekip_> I'll try
[21:51] <siriusblack> because i have a 2 GB SD-card but something went wrong and now i can only format to fat-12 giving the SD-card only 512 KB of memory
[21:51] <Starnestommy> beltran: /join #channel
[21:51] <beltran> thanks
[21:51] <fde> harpreet: I have to go... reinstall sun-java6-plugin please...

[21:54] <my_haz> thekip_: is it disabled in php.ini ?
[21:55] <my_haz> thekip_: but then again i don't know why that would give you such an error, is it giving you the source code or just a blank file?
[21:55] <modulargaming> how would I go about packaging http://modulargaming.com for ubuntu universe? would I split the external libraries up? e.g. Smarty and ActiveTable
[21:56] <thekip_> it gives me the source file
[21:56] <my_haz> thekip_: and this is with <?php phpinfo(); ?>
[21:56] <thekip_> jep
[21:56] <DIL> !format
[21:56] <invite> what's the command to activate emerald ?
[21:56] <thekip_> which worked before installing mod-mono
[21:57]  * invite is Pelo
[21:57] <my_haz> thekip_: never seen that before. how about other random functions? like <?php date('z'); ?>
[21:57] <m13> invite , emerald --replace ?
[21:57] <DIL> ">test
[21:58] <thekip_> lol date("Y-m-d") works too :+
[21:58] <thekip_> no idea why phpinfo wouldn't work
[21:58] <my_haz> thekip_: what does #php have to say?
[21:59] <thekip_> hmmm it looks like it has something to do with file permissions
[21:59] <hp2133> Ever type mk2fs when you meant tune2fs? Yeah, that sucks.
[21:59] <thekip_> allthough they look exactly the same
[21:59] <m-c> is it possible to daisy chain SATA drives?
[21:59] <Slart> m-c: I don't think so
[21:59] <StevenX> can anyone recommend a simple alarm for ubuntu?
[22:00] <thekip_> my_haz: thx for the tips, just found my error
[22:00] <thekip_> the phpinfo() command was opened with <? instead of <?php (short tags)....
[22:00] <my_haz> thekip_: what was it so we know?
[22:00] <my_haz> StevenX: what do you want it to do
[22:00] <Slart> m-c: eSATA might be able to.. not sure though
[22:00] <caleb> I get a white screen when I log into ubuntu, unless I select the failsafe gnome session. I am sure this has nothing to do with emerald (I am using an emerald theme) or compiz as I have tried to remove them and then log in.
[22:00] <StevenX> my_haz, play a sound file at a certain time
[22:00] <my_haz> thekip_: didn't i mention that up top? my very first suggestion?
[22:01] <The_PHP_Jedi> I'm having problems with my sound on fresh installs of Ubuntu Hardy and Debian Etch/Lenny. My old install of Feisty, which I upgraded to Hardy, still has sound working. Any clues? I've debugged just about everything :-s
[22:01] <Swish> you can use an eSATA port multiplier as a single "chain" increaser
[22:01] <my_haz> StevenX: i mean the very very very simplest would be to use `at` or `sleep 3500 ; mplayer good-morning.mp3`
[22:01] <m-c> Slart: thank - no, I just bought a new hard drive and noticed 2/2 sata slots were used
[22:01] <Swish> or also, an infiniband->sata module (and back again to sata)
[22:01] <lw0x15> The_PHP_Jedi, have you checked alsamixer, i had my sound muted
[22:01] <Swish> but that's passive, I think.
[22:01] <m-c> my board is pretty old, so I doubt it has eSATA
[22:01] <thekip_> ah damn, I'm sorry, didn't notice the lack of php at the opening tag....
[22:01] <Slart> m-c: ouch.. well.. there are SATA controller cards that doesn't cost an arm and a leg
[22:01] <my_haz> StevenX: failing that xmms has a plugin xmms-alarm
[22:02] <m-c> thanks for your thoughts then
[22:02] <The_PHP_Jedi> lw0x15, yeah, I checked volume levels and unmuted.
[22:02] <m-c> oh, good idea
[22:02] <thekip_> I thought you meant to just try a echo
[22:02] <StevenX> my_haz, the 3500 is in seconds?
[22:02] <Swish> anyway, there are such things as eSATA hubs/active things that increase the number of meters you can run the sata cable.
[22:02] <my_haz> StevenX: yes
[22:02] <steven> ah i forgot to check if the string is *only* my own name
[22:02] <StevenX> my_haz, k, thanks
[22:02] <steven> i wonder how the other clients do it
[22:02] <my_haz> StevenX: you might do `sleep $(( 3600 * 8 )); mplayer good-morning.mp3`
[22:03] <kushal1> Hello, I am making a home DVD with about 200 short clips using Devede. I have already added about 60 files one at a time but my hand is starting to hurt. It is also really boring. Is there a way for me to add a bunch of mpg files on to the devede list like a batch or drag and drop? please let me know. thanks  (please answer)
[22:03] <m-c> slart: you think it is worth getting a sata controller that is faster than 1.5 Gbit/s ?
[22:03] <modulargaming> no
[22:03] <jedimind> lol kushal1
[22:03] <modulargaming> as I doubt the drive can push that much data
[22:03] <_eMaX_> hi all
[22:03] <MAHerron> hi
[22:03] <modulargaming> hello
[22:03] <kushal1> jedimind :(
[22:03] <m-c> modulargaming: thanks
[22:03] <_eMaX_> how can I start programs automatically in gnome after a login?
[22:04] <jedimind> kushal1: sorry dont mean to be rude was just a funny request, wish i could help but ive neer used devede
[22:04] <Slart> m-c: you mean if you should get a SATA 1 or SATA 2 controller?
[22:04] <ixion> guys, I downloaded the source for ubuntu-modules and edited appleir.c to update the device ID for my iMac remote control. I installed the deb package I built and the remote worked... now after a reboot it's stopped working - re-installing the deb package now does not fix the remote - any ideas???
[22:05] <kushal1> no I am not angry at you. it is just that I don't want to be adding all these files by hand
[22:05] <gnubie> _eMaX_,  System>Preferences>sessions
[22:05] <my_haz> _eMaX_: or `$ vi ~/.xinitrc`
[22:05] <my_haz> without the $ of course :D
[22:05] <jedimind> is it wrong for me to be using ubuntu mouse icons in windows?
[22:05] <Slart> m-c: I just check my local computer shop and the SATA 2 cards aren't that much more expensive.. I'd go with a SATA 2 card
[22:06] <my_haz> jedimind: very un-jedi
[22:06] <kushal1> jedimind, looking back, I don't know what I was thinking trying to add everything by hand. I cannot even believe I added over 60 of those by hand. I wish I could drag and drop using default settings
[22:06] <rhsanborn> Strange thing happening. If I use a media player to play music (Rythmbox) and then go into firefox and try to listen to audio, nothing comes out without a reboot. Is it just me, or....
[22:06] <siriusblack> hey
[22:07] <siriusblack> !format
[22:07] <_eMaX_> my_haz, gnubie: tnx
[22:07] <The_PHP_Jedi> rhsanborn, have you attempted to close Rythmbox before opening Firefox and trying to listen to audio?
[22:07] <my_haz> rhsanborn: that happens on redhat some times, i have never had it happen on ubuntu
[22:07] <Alan_M> !diskmounter > alan_m
[22:07] <The_PHP_Jedi> rhsanborn, afaik, only one app can use audio output at any given time.
[22:08] <patholio> has apparmor been giving ppl issues?
[22:08] <Slart> m-c: oh.. just thought of something.. it you buy a pci-card you'll probably be limited by the pci-bus.. not the SATA connection
[22:08] <ixion> no way
[22:08] <ixion> you must be able to output audio from more than one app at a time
[22:08] <prakriti> anybody getting this problem?: scp: warning: Executing scp1 compatibility.
[22:08] <prakriti> scp: FATAL: Executing ssh1 in compatibility mode failed (Check that scp1 is in your PATH).
[22:08] <prakriti> lost connection
[22:08] <my_haz> The_PHP_Jedi: not all the time, i watch movies and music all the time together on my dapper box (havn't tried it on hardy yet)
[22:08] <ixion> um prakriti dont just dump stuff in the channell
[22:08] <prakriti> its only a couple lines
[22:08] <siriusblack> what the hell...
[22:09] <Sneakers> i got an error stating that fsck had failed on boot, giving me a maintenance shell, so i ran "fsck /dev/sdb1" (my install/boot drive) and i've got "unattached inode 1009910. connect to /lost+found<y>?" <-- should i be pressing yes?
[22:09] <rhsanborn> The_PHP_Jedi, I can't remember if I've done it in that order. I just had rythmbox open, and, with it open tried to listen to something on myspace. It still wouldn't work even after closing the music player
[22:09] <AkatO_o> salut
[22:09] <The_PHP_Jedi> my_haz, maybe your sound card has better compatibility with ESD or something.
[22:09] <siriusblack> i am missing 1 GB 99 MB and 99.5 KB
[22:09] <The_PHP_Jedi> Anyways, I'm having sound problems myself
[22:09] <The_PHP_Jedi> I'm having problems with my sound on fresh installs of Ubuntu Hardy and Debian Etch/Lenny. My old install of Feisty, which I upgraded to Hardy, still has sound working. Any clues? I've debugged just about everything :-s
[22:09] <siriusblack> umm
[22:09] <siriusblack> 1 gb 999 mb and 999.5 kb
[22:09] <m-c> slart: thanks - can you recommend any sata boards?  going to buy one online now
[22:09] <gbolte> hey all
[22:09] <ixion> The_PHP_Jedi: what hardware?
[22:10] <gbolte> quick question
[22:10] <Alan_M> !hi | gbolte
[22:10] <gbolte> what error message dose the ubuntu sshd throw if you try to log in 3 times with the wrong password?
[22:10] <m-c> slart: ubuntu compatibility being the most important aspect, of course
[22:10] <Alan_M> !ask | gbolte
[22:10] <Slart> m-c: I've used a promise card before.. but that was a couple of years ago
[22:10] <siriusblack> (1 gb 1023 mb and 1023.5 kb really)
[22:10] <StevenX> what reposetory do i need to add so that i can install xmms using apt-get?
[22:10] <rhsanborn> hmm...perhaps it's firefox. I had to kill it to bring it down, and when I brought it back up, it can play fine...
[22:10] <StevenX> Package xmms is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[22:10] <StevenX> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[22:10] <StevenX> is only available from another source
[22:10] <StevenX> E: Package xmms has no installation candidate

[22:10] <The_PHP_Jedi> ixion, 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03)
[22:11] <fredh> I don't understand why I get offered restricted drivers for VMWare kernel driver this morning, when I installed VMWare Player on saturday morning. Also I ticked "Off" under Restricted Drivers manager but it still says "In Use" just next to where it is NOT ticked Enabled...
[22:11] <Pici> StevenX: xmms is no longer being developed, I suggest trying audacious instead.
[22:11] <ixion> ok The_PHP_Jedi is this a system you built yourself or what ?
[22:11] <The_PHP_Jedi> ixion, pre-made HP system.
[22:11] <StevenX> Pici, thanks
[22:11] <rabelais> what would cause a long delay (black screen) between grub loading of kernel and the splash screen to show up (where the orange ubuntu bar is going across the screen)?
[22:11] <gbolte> anyone wanna humor me here and try sshing to a ubuntu machine 3 times?
[22:11] <rabelais> long delay, as in > 30 seconds, it only happens when I connect the computer to the tv, there is no delay when I connect the machine to an LCD display, it seems like a display probing/detection problem, can I disable that somehow?
[22:11] <siriusblack> wtf...
[22:11] <siriusblack> now the disk is -512 b in size
[22:12] <siriusblack> filesystem unallocated
[22:12] <gbolte> :/
[22:13] <siriusblack> size -512 b, first sector: 0, last sector: -1, total sectors: -1
[22:13] <Toba_> how can I find out what the most advanced version of a package is in ubuntu repositories?
[22:13] <Luig1> in terminal apps with no established exit feature, is the proper way to exit ctrl+C or ctrl+D?
[22:13] <Toba_> the version that's in standard hardy isn't new enough
[22:13] <Tux2K9> I installed pidgin 2.4.1 from source, now i want to install 2.4.2 , how to remove 2.4.1 properly?
[22:13] <ArthurArchnix> The error message I received was "You have used your three wishes. Goodbye."
[22:14] <ixion> Tux2K9: you have the untar'd directory? if so make uninstall
[22:14] <Pauldb> hello world
[22:14] <gnutron> Luig1: ctrl+c
[22:14] <StevenX> i'm trying to install mplayer but it get stuck on this part
[22:14] <StevenX> I hope 2 lines is not flooding
[22:14] <Tux2K9> ixion
[22:14] <StevenX> Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
[22:14] <StevenX> 0% [Connecting to packages.medibuntu.org]
[22:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Toba_ It may not be the newest, but it is tested and will work
[22:14] <Luhta> is there an easy to setup media player for the console?
[22:14] <Tux2K9> ixion : I only have the 2.4.2 souce directory...not 2.4.1
[22:14] <Toba_> Jack_Sparrow: I *need* a feature that the new version has
[22:14] <ArthurArchnix> stevenx there's you problem right there... why are you downloading mplayer from medibuntu? Why not use the ubuntu repositories?
[22:14] <rabelais> Luig1, ctl+c send SIGINT, most applications end when taht is sent
[22:14] <Luig1> ty gnutron. How are they different in practice, btw (I've been using ctrl+C, in case you wondered)
[22:15] <Luig1> ?
[22:15] <StevenX> ArthurArchnix, don't know. i'm not sure why it is doing that.
[22:15] <The_PHP_Jedi> ixion, any other ideas? :-s
[22:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Toba_ Then get a deb or compile it yourself
[22:15] <Sneakers> i got an error stating that fsck had failed on boot, giving me a maintenance shell, so i ran "fsck /dev/sdb1" (my install/boot drive) and i've got "unattached inode 1009910. connect to /lost+found<y>?" <-- should i be pressing yes?
[22:15] <Toba_> I guess I can just install it from source but I'd rather not, you know?
[22:15] <hendrix> jebite si mater
[22:15] <ArthurArchnix> stevenX ok, it's because you've got the medibuntu repository for things like codes, wmv, dvd etc.
[22:15] <rabelais> Luig1, ctl+D sends end of transmission, most terminals will exit when recieving end of file (EOF)
[22:15] <Luig1> Oh, OK. Bye then!
[22:15] <styyle> after upgrading from linux kernel 2.6.24-16 to 2.6.24-17, ubuntu no longer pays attention to my blacklisted modules, meaning it still loads them when i need it not to.  I am blacklisting the ath_pci module so that i can load the patched madwifi version and us my atheros wifeless card.   I'd like to remove a host from known_host, which seems to be given with a ipv6 adress or something like that. Anyway, how can i find out the right on ?
[22:17] <siriusblack> yea
[22:17] <siriusblack> i do
[22:17] <sensae> How can I functionally replace Rhythmbox with Exaile? I can't change it in the file management window
[22:18] <StevenX> ArthurArchnix, thanks
[22:18] <ArthurArchnix> sure... does that mean it worked?
[22:18] <Soopa> stroyan: that worked.. I had to mount the dir instead of linking it
[22:18] <Soopa> stroyan: thanks :)
[22:18] <gnutron> matisse: rm or modify ~/.ssh/known_hosts
[22:18] <styyle> to replace rhythmbox, right click a music file, and then got to properties->open with, and change it to exhaile.  It should then use exhail from then on as the default loader
[22:19] <sensae> Why doesn't the File Management window detect new programs I've installed?
[22:19] <synt> any wine guru here who might help me get Wow working again?
[22:19] <siriusblack> i fired up CFdisk and it shows yet a different size...
[22:19] <sensae> styyle: But I need to change it to open Exaile when I plug in my iPod too
[22:19] <styyle> ok, one sec
[22:19] <Jack_Sparrow> synt  /join #Winehq
[22:19] <DIL> siriusblack: using fat 12 or 16
[22:19] <jrib> sensae: issue with the .desktop file most likely.  File a bug
[22:19] <ArthurArchnix> siriusblack: CDdisk under hardy is reporting all kinds of disk errors for me. Refuses to start. I'm not sure how much I believe it.
[22:19] <Scunizi> I'm looking at a Brother MultiFunctionPrinter. Brother's page shows linux systems their LPR & Cups drivers have been tested with but state that they don't work with Debian 3.0. Anyone with Brother Experience that has a unit working under Ubuntu?
[22:19] <siriusblack> on windows i got 506208 bytes(or so) gparted gives me 512 b, and cfdisk gives me 524288
[22:20] <siriusblack> fat 12 i guess
[22:20] <AlsMe> hey.. what can I use as a myth tv frontend for windows XP?
[22:20] <jrib> AlsMe: ask ##windows?
[22:20] <jrib> AlsMe: or maybe the mythtv channel
[22:20] <AlsMe> k thanks
[22:20] <ArthurArchnix> OR the magic 8 ball...
[22:20] <sensae> jrib: Where does the .desktop file live?
[22:20]  * ArthurArchnix shakes ball. Outlook not good.
[22:21] <Radit> how do i format a partition? and what is the equivalent of scandisk in ubuntu?
[22:21] <Alan_M> ArthurArchnix, be nice :)
[22:21] <styyle> sensae: what does it do now when you plug in your ipod?
[22:21] <jpastore> hi recent ubuntu update broke virtual box for me. claiming I need to install the virtualbox modules for my kernel...I went through synaptic and they seem to be installed
[22:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !fsck
[22:21] <sensae> styyle: Whatever I have selected in file management - right now it launches rhythmbox
[22:21] <siriusblack> dil: fat 12 i think
[22:21] <Scunizi> Radit: scandisk=checkdisk but not the same or neccessary.. your sys will self check every 30 days.
[22:21] <jrib> sensae: /usr/share/applications/.  Though you may just copy it when you find it to ~/.local/share/applications/ and edit it there.  (You'll need to update-desktop-database ~/.local/share/applications after)
[22:22] <tripps> i am upgrading my copy of gutsy to hardy and an at the "remove obsolete packages" step, where it instructs me that 109 packages are d
[22:22] <tripps> going to be removed. are these being replaced by newer packages or are they orphans
[22:22] <Radit> Scunizi: thanks :-)
[22:22] <n6rej> whats the advantage/disadvantage of using fat32 for partition that is going to be shared on the lan?
[22:22] <Scunizi> Radit: np
[22:23] <jpastore> upgrading to 8.04 ruined my life
[22:23] <harpreet> java is being pain in the a.. how do i configure , install or anything
[22:23] <sensae> jrih: I'm not quite sure how this directory functions, but I see an exaile.desktop
[22:23] <n6rej> jpastore: ditto
[22:23] <siriusblack> arthuratchnix: itś not a problem with the program,
[22:23] <DIL> siriusblack: try qtparted see if you can resize fat 12 may have some limitations fat16 is 2gb and fat32 is 4gb not sure what fat12 is so try format in 16 and see what you get
[22:23] <styyle> sensea: in a open nautilus window, go to edit-> preferences->media and wou can change the default application for media players
[22:23] <Scunizi> n6rej: disadvantage all the way.. limited max file size .. bad file system structure.. use ext3 and if you have windows boxes there is a driver for them to read/write ext3
[22:24] <n6rej> Scunizi: oh really? kk... cause I have OSX, *Nix and XP
[22:24] <Radit> what is the command to foramt a partition to ntfs?
[22:24] <n6rej> 4 machines
[22:24] <n6rej> oh and 98
[22:24] <Leftmost> Is it possible to force a package with circular dependencies to a specific version?
[22:24] <ge> !paste
[22:24] <harpreet> how to i install java
[22:24] <n6rej> !java > harpreet
[22:24] <sensae> styyle: That's the problem, the other programs aren't listed there
[22:24] <Scunizi> n6rej: if you're hosting the shared drive on an ubuntu machine.. networking will allow read/write from whereever.
[22:25] <sensae> styyle: And I've restarted
[22:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !pinning | Leftmost
[22:25] <n6rej> Scunizi: yep.. ok, so stick with ext3 and then use samba?
[22:25] <tripps> someone please explain what "obsolete packages" are during upgrade to heron. In my case it is a list of 109 packages that seem to include lots of software I want.
[22:25] <AlsMe> anyone know how to fix my OPENSSH? I heard there was a vunerability
[22:25] <Scunizi> n6rej: yep.. or setup ftp . or both.. kd6wqk here :)
[22:25] <Jack_Sparrow> AlsMe see channel topic
[22:26] <n6rej> Scunizi: nice to meet you OM
[22:26] <siriusblack> dil: can only use one or 2 functions in qtparted, still sais i only have 1 sector available
[22:26] <Scunizi> n6rej: back to work for me  73's
[22:26] <AlsMe> but this problem is only with Ubuntu computers
[22:26] <node357> and Debian
[22:26] <jrib> AlsMe: just make sure your openssh-* packages are updated and you have the -security repositories enabled
[22:26] <n6rej> Scunizi: kk ty.. .now to just get everything backed up so I can reinstall because of this WONDERFUL 8.04 update :(
[22:26] <Sneakers> i got an error stating that fsck had failed on boot, giving me a maintenance shell, so i ran "fsck /dev/sdb1" (my install/boot drive) and i've got "unattached inode 1009910. connect to /lost+found<y>?" <-- should i be pressing yes?
[22:26] <AlsMe> what is the Ubuntu command to update openssh?
[22:27] <AlsMe> I tried 'sudo apt-get update open-shh'
[22:27] <jrib> !apt > AlsMe (read the private message from ubottu)
[22:27] <AlsMe> didn't work
[22:27] <n6rej> AlsMe: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade
[22:27] <jrib> AlsMe: s/update/install   and use the right package name
[22:27] <siriusblack> "it starts at 0 and ends at 1, it can grow left -0.00004 something and right 0.00004 something, filesystem: unknow
[22:27] <Scunizi> n6rej: if you have the room just make another partition and copy your /home to it.. you should, on reinstall have a separate /home anyway just for this type of thing.
[22:27] <DIL> siriusblack: did you not see fat 32
[22:27] <AlsMe> I'm using 'xubuntu' tho
[22:27] <AlsMe> will it be the same?
[22:27] <jrib> AlsMe: doesn't matter
[22:27] <AlsMe> k thankx
[22:27] <siriusblack> dil i only saw unknown
[22:27] <n6rej> Scunizi: thats what I did I resized the partition and i'm trying to copy /home over so I can do just that.
[22:28] <bitzero> anyone have any tips or tricks to getting network briding working properly with Xen 3.2.0 under Hardy?
[22:28] <jrib> AlsMe: well, if you want to use the GUI, it's different of course :)
[22:28] <DIL> siriusblack: did you see the drive
[22:28] <n6rej> Scunizi: its taking blooming forever to cp 26G
[22:28] <siriusblack> yes
[22:28] <Scunizi> n6rej: if you backup to an external hd.. on reinstall 8-12gigs for /... 1gig for /swap and the rest for /home
[22:28] <bitzero> I can ping Dom0 from DomU but DomU can't reach the rest of the network.
[22:28] <DIL> siriusblack: hilight it
[22:28] <zeno_> hi i just installed 8.04 but wireless isnt working. it did on 7.10. lsmod shows the driver is running, but iwlist eth1 scan returns no results
[22:28] <siriusblack> dil: itś the only thing there, it is highlighted
[22:28] <n6rej> Scunizi: let me right that down.
[22:28] <DIL> siriusblack: click on operations format choose fat32
[22:29] <tripps> does compiz work in hardy heron?
[22:29] <Scunizi> n6rej: if you're copying using the gui you'll miss the hidden files.. it's also faster using the terminal for copying.. sometimes nautilus hickups
[22:29] <jrib> tripps: yes
[22:29] <Leftmost> Jack_Sparrow, thanks. Everything else I could find said to go with Force Version, which was failing.
[22:29] <siriusblack> operations, only available option is configuration
[22:29] <n6rej> Scunizi: this is a server so no gui
[22:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Leftmost np
[22:29] <sensae> argh frustrating
[22:29] <n6rej> Scunizi: told it "cp -R /home /backup
[22:29] <noelferreira> how do i decrease resolution of my vnc server (vino)?
[22:29] <Saub> how do i ad a irc channel?
[22:29] <avernos> sabeis si el Avid funciona en ubuntu?
[22:29] <DIL> siriusblack: using qtparted
[22:29] <n6rej> Scunizi: to cp everything form /home to /backup
[22:29] <tripps> can I select "keep" when upgrade asks me about removing obsolete packages and remove them later using upgrade manager just in case?
[22:30] <siriusblack> dil: yes
[22:30] <jrib> Saub: /join #name_of_channel
[22:30] <avernos> yay, mistake
[22:30] <Scunizi> n6rej: ah! ok.. if you're hosting Joomla (by the looks of google) you might consider separating /var as well. since www lives there.
[22:30] <jrib> !es | avernos
[22:30] <n6rej> Scunizi: yep.  I love J!
[22:30] <chev_chelios> which repository gets updated first? main repo? I installed a few minutes ago, and my local repo said 59 updates, and main repo said 75 or so...???
[22:30] <erisco> is there any way to rename a file that is mounted from a read-only storage device (a cdrom)? For some reason a file's name is simply incorrect
[22:30] <n6rej> Scunizi: I've got to figure out how much I need for /var though
[22:30] <erisco> I don't care for the changes to be written to the disk or anything
[22:30] <Scunizi> n6rej: www.tangsoosam.com  is my setup.. pretty basic
[22:30] <n6rej> wish df -h told you the real usage
[22:31] <DIL> siriusblack: i see that under options findopertaions
[22:31] <n6rej> Scunizi: cool!  I've used J! for years... I really like it.. I have about 5 sites with it.
[22:31] <n6rej> Scunizi: should it be taking 15 min on an older system to cp 26G?
[22:31] <Bingulim> Someone knows which directory Ubuntu saves the information about the server that I can add using the Locals->Connect to Server... ?
[22:31] <avernos> thanks, anyway, does anyone know if avid works under ubuntu? or a guide to do it?
[22:31] <Prefix> how do i get the 32bit environment in 64bit ubuntu? I need it for this game: http://www.penumbra-overture.com/demo.php
[22:31] <noelferreira> how do i decrease resolution of my vnc server (vino)?
[22:31] <jrib> !chroot > Prefix (read the private message from ubottu)
[22:31] <siriusblack> under options there also only configuration
[22:32] <Jack_Sparrow> n6rej yes
[22:32] <tony403> anyone know how to disable compositing via command line?
[22:32] <n6rej> hiya jack!
[22:32] <Scunizi> n6rej: /var will get eaten up with photos not joomla by itself really.. I'm pretty noob with joomla .. could be with the time factor, drive speed etc..
[22:32] <n6rej> kk ty
[22:32] <Prefix> jrib: Cheers man :0
[22:32] <caleb> It seems that the ati driver 8.5 makes my screen go white when I log in. I upgraded gusty to hardy, but then installed from a live cd to get a clean slate, it didn't do this when I just upgraded. Also, the driver worked for a little while after I installed from a live cd, but now it doesn't.
[22:32] <DIL> siriusblack: version?
[22:32] <jrib> Prefix: make sure yo udon't just need some ia32* packaages
[22:32] <siriusblack> 0.4.5-CVS
[22:32] <Saub> does anyone here know anything about elisa media center?
[22:32] <n6rej> Scunizi: yeah, once I get everythign backed up I think I'll make /home a small part... make 10G and the rest to /var/www since thats mainly what its for.
[22:32] <chev_chelios> caleb: check if the system is using restricted drivers.
[22:33] <DIL> siriusblack: same, did you run it as sudo
[22:33] <siriusblack> think no will do
[22:33] <n6rej> saub there is a media version of U!
[22:33] <Scunizi> n6rej: that'd work.. not sure where mysql lives though.. gotta think of that since it's the backend database.
[22:33] <n6rej> Scunizi: which version of j! r u using?
[22:33] <Radit> hi, i'm using ubuntu 8.04, when i use gparted to format the partition the ntfs option is grayed out. Anybody knows why?
[22:33] <caleb> chev_chelios: I followed the guide here: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Hardy_Installation_Guide
[22:33] <siriusblack> same functions, only now i also see my hard-drives
[22:33] <Scunizi> n6rej: version just before 1.5
[22:33] <DJ_Cranky> can anyone tell me how to mount a drive on login, i am having troube
[22:34] <n6rej> Scunizi: well 12G for / should cover it
[22:34] <Saub> what is it called?
[22:34] <DJ_Cranky> the drive is sdb1 its label is Data Drive
[22:34] <sensae> How do I install an exaile plugin? o.o
[22:34] <n6rej> Scunizi: unless you NEED .15 mod's switch to 1.5.x its much more stable and very very nice.... its where everythign is going.
[22:34] <tripps> can someone please explain the meaning of "obselete packages" during upgrade to heron?
[22:34] <chev_chelios> caleb: wait, I'll see that now...
[22:34] <Scunizi> n6rej: since you're in 6 land do you log onto #ubuntu-california?  I'm there most all the time.
[22:35] <tripps> s/obse/obso/
[22:35] <DIL> do you know how to mount from cli
[22:35] <hsuarez> hello all
[22:35] <DJ_Cranky> can anyone help me add a line to my fstab file?
[22:35] <caleb> chev_chelios: I did the manual way on that page
[22:35] <Scunizi> n6rej: easy upgrade?
[22:35] <siriusblack> dil: i only see my hard-drives as well, no other difference
[22:35] <n6rej> Scunizi: no never even knew it existed... I'm in 0 land now... i've had my call almost 20yrs
[22:35] <caleb> chev_chelios: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Hardy_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Manual_Method_.28installing_Catalyst_8.5.29
[22:35] <c1|freaky> is anyone in here using btnx?
[22:35] <n6rej> Scunizi: NO!  read very carefully
[22:35] <DIL> siriusblack: but do you see where you can format from operations
[22:35] <chev_chelios> caleb: what was wrong with "ubuntu way"?
[22:35] <n6rej> Scunizi: but easier now then in 6 months
[22:35] <chev_chelios> caleb: i see
[22:35] <siriusblack> dil: yes, i do see it, but it's grayed outr
[22:36] <Scunizi> n6rej: I think I'm approaching 15yrs. My site is hosted commercially.. why easier now than in 6 mths?
[22:36] <n6rej> Scunizi: its unlike any upgrade J! has ever done
[22:36] <noelferreira> where do i change the configuration of vnc server?
[22:36] <sociologicamente> eee
[22:36] <DJ_Cranky> can anyone help me format a line for my fstab?
[22:36] <DIL> siriusblack: click on 1 of your drves but dont fromat
[22:36] <n6rej> Scunizi: because when 1.6 or 2.0 comes out there will be no more support for .15
[22:36] <siriusblack> dil: yes
[22:36] <Scunizi> n6rej: arg.. I guess I better do it.
[22:36] <n6rej> Scunizi: the 1.0 series is at EOL
[22:36] <caleb> chev_chelios: I like to get the latest drivers and being able to somewhat control a problem if something goes wrong during installation
[22:36] <chev_chelios> caleb: i think you messed up the default ubuntu packages, and that the system is not using the drivers you installed.
[22:36] <sensae> I'm having problems installin plugins in Exaile.
[22:36] <n6rej> Scunizi: do you use any special mods?
[22:37] <chev_chelios> caleb: did the install went good? no problems?
[22:37] <Jack_Sparrow> DJ_Cranky What are you trying to do
[22:37] <Scunizi> n6rej: since this is a bit off topic join me at #kd6wqk  ie /j #kd6wqk
[22:37] <caleb> chev_chelios: no problems
[22:37] <DJ_Cranky> Jack_Sparrow i have a partition sdb1 i want to mount on login with the label Data Drive, it is ntfs
[22:37] <DIL> siriusblack: try mounting sd from cli and restart QT then try formating - you will have to select the drive -hey are you sure none of them is the sd card
[22:38] <chev_chelios> caleb: and the driver, does it load? check if the system is using restricted drivers.
[22:38] <caleb> chev_chelios: it seems that the bug was reported: http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1107 but that is for 8.4
[22:38] <siriusblack> cli?
[22:38] <StoneApple> hum...
[22:38] <Jack_Sparrow> DJ_Cranky sudo mkdir /media/Data_Drive   no spaces
[22:38] <caleb> chev_chelios I know it loads
[22:38] <DIL> siriusblack: command line
[22:38] <siriusblack> ahh...
[22:38] <eduardo> Question: hello i have an epson stylus CX5600 multifunctional but the system detects it as a CX5400 is there anyway i can change this so i make full use of my multifunctional?

[22:39] <siriusblack> dil: and i do know i had the SD-card selected because the SD-card is called SDa, and the hard drives are called HDa and HDb
[22:39] <DJ_Cranky> Jack_Sparrow okey lets try
[22:39] <Jack_Sparrow> DJ_Cranky mount -a  should read the fstab again
[22:40] <Jack_Sparrow> DJ_Cranky remove any other sdb1 mounts in fstab
[22:40] <eduardo> Question: hello i have an epson stylus CX5600 multifunctional but the system detects it as a CX5400 is there anyway i can change this so i make full use of my multifunctional?
[22:40] <MKT-Juliana> #ht16
[22:40] <chev_chelios> caleb: you installed 8.5 drivers, right? and you got the same problem? perhaps, they are buggy...
[22:40] <DIL> siriusblack: sda could be scsi as well
[22:40] <fiete> hi! is there a way to suspend my machine remotely?
[22:41] <tripps> please answer: are "obsolete packages" during upgrade to heron, a) old versions of packages being replaced, b) orphaned packages, or c) other?
[22:41] <siriusblack> scsi?
[22:41] <chev_chelios> caleb: sorry, i cannot help, maybe someone could direct you on changing some config file...
[22:42] <DIL> siriusblack: sd was mounted automatcially -Qt should gave seen it. try downloading GPARTED live cd and rebOot with sd attached it should have same options as qt
[22:42] <eduardo> last five times ive been here, nobody has helped me, i think this will be sixth one..
[22:42] <gnutron> tripps: A. go ahead and delete those packages
[22:42] <chev_chelios> eduardo: what is the problem?
[22:42] <eduardo> Question: hello i have an epson stylus CX5600 multifunctional but the system detects it as a CX5400 is there anyway i can change this so i make full use of my multifunctional?
[22:43] <skiter> Hi... I install ubuntu desktop 8.04 but it is freezing... When I unload all modules that don't be used, don't freeze
[22:43] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo Attitude and how well your question is phrased have a lot to do with how good of an answer you get..
[22:43] <tripps> gnutron: great thanks!
[22:43] <siriusblack> dil: qtparted has seen the SD card, it just displays the wrong size
[22:43] <DJ_Cranky> Jack_Sparrow thank you so much!
[22:43] <laughingman> come now jack, cut him some slack, he's obviously frustrated.
[22:43] <eduardo> Jack_Sparrow: i dont think im having a bad attitude
[22:43] <siriusblack> dil: gparted displays an even less likely size...
[22:43] <skiter> have any module that report problens?
[22:43] <siriusblack> dil: an impossible size really...
[22:43] <DIL> siriusblack: IF YOU ARE SURE THAT IT IS THE SD CARD SELECT AND FORMAT TO FAT32
[22:43] <Jack_Sparrow> DJ_Cranky You good to go ..?
[22:43] <fredh> I am on Ubuntu 7.10, uninstalled vmware player by vmware-uninstall.pl and removed /etc/vmware and /opt/vmware but something still remains. Under restricted drivers VMWare kernel driver is still listed (in red though). lsmod | grep vm shows nothing... any ideas to what I missed?
[22:43] <siriusblack> dil: -512
[22:43] <eduardo> chev_chelios: did you read my question?
[22:43] <chev_chelios> sorry eduardo, i do not use printer on my box :)
[22:44] <eduardo> chev_chelios: ok
[22:44] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo I feel your statement was rude and offensive to the people that are here helping
[22:44] <chev_chelios> eduardo: yes, sorry, i do not use printers.
[22:44] <sensae> argh
[22:44] <DIL> siriusblack: sry for caps
[22:44] <sensae> Does anyone use exaile? I can't install plugins.
[22:44] <tim167> what does it mean when files are shown in green in xterminal and i cannot tab-complete them ?
[22:44] <eduardo> Jack_Sparrow: yes, and i feel ofended each time i get here and nobody helps me
[22:44] <laughingman> Jack, can you help him or not?
[22:44] <siriusblack> dil: i cant format, but when i select SDa it sais multi flash reader
[22:45] <FFighter> hello
[22:45] <daemon3_> Anyone know about converting m4a and m4p files to mp3?  I have just about every codec known to Linux, so I how do I use the codecs?
[22:45] <FFighter> how can I adjust the brightness, contrast of my display ?
[22:45] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo If someone knows the answer they will help.  You are free to leave and look for the answer elsewhere
[22:45] <The_PHP_Jedi> eduardo, we're not obliged to help you. Ubuntu's support is provided by the community of volunteers who decide to support and contribute to the project.
[22:45] <FFighter> I'm using a hp dv6800 laptop
[22:45] <gnutron> eduardo: can you http://localhost:631  and talk to cupsys printing daemon. the colon may need to be a slash.
[22:46] <matisse> I've deleted the known_hosts-File, running a ssh-session adds 2 entries, why that ?
[22:46] <DIL> siriusblack: then it maybe hosed? if you have a winows box see if you can format to fat32
[22:46] <eduardo> omg, im not saying you guys are obligued to help. god i just made a statement and now everybody is arguing with me
[22:46] <siriusblack> no, i cant i tried, i can only format to fat(16 or 12)
[22:46] <gnutron> matisse: known_hosts is re-created whenconnecting and accepting any key
[22:47] <laughingman> eduardo, might i suggest windows XP. At least then everything will just work, and you won't have to be talked down to everytime you have a question.
[22:47] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo You made an inflamatory statement and now complain when you get flamed.. go figure
[22:47] <matisse> gnutron: there was only 1 connection
[22:47] <DIL> siriusblack: then fat 16 check mfg site to see if they have a formating utility
[22:47] <matisse> why 2 keys ?
[22:47] <theman> hello everybody I am kind of a n00b but my question for somebody is how do I make my gdesklets setup launch automatically at startup?
[22:47] <eduardo> laughingman: i dont like windows xp, thanks for the heads up.
[22:47] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo Did you even look to see if xsane sees the scanner portion of your printer
[22:48] <siriusblack> mfg site
[22:48] <siriusblack> ?
[22:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !startup
[22:48] <eduardo> Jack_Sparrow: it doesnt, thats why i need to change de driver
[22:48] <DIL> siriusblack: who made it
[22:48] <eduardo> Jack_Sparrow: but idk how to do it
[22:48] <siriusblack> ah
[22:48] <Odd-rationale> theman: try going to System --> pref --> sessions and reate a new entry for gdesklets
[22:48] <Radit> what do i use to scan a ntfs partition for a bad sector and mark it to not be used?
[22:49] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo Did you read the supported hardware page to see if your printer is listed
[22:49] <FFighter> any hints?
[22:49] <eduardo> Jack_Sparrow: yes, its not listed
[22:49] <DIL> siriusblack: did you try fdisk
[22:49] <adakole5> people still complain on how to use some soft e=wares like auto cad on linux
[22:49] <siriusblack> umm... okay? this page is weird, a page "who we are" stating you know who we are
[22:49] <siriusblack> yea, but i cant use it...
[22:50] <siriusblack> well
[22:50] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo then the additional features are not supported and it is using the driver that will let it work as a printer only
[22:50] <theman> ok odd-rationale and where would i do that at exactly?
[22:50] <eduardo> Jack_Sparrow: but before my last ubuntu reinstallation it worked fine and it recognized as the model it is, idk whats going wrong now
[22:50] <siriusblack> im probably able to, but i dont know how to
[22:50] <Odd-rationale> theman: in the startup tab
[22:50] <DIL> siriusblack: sudo fdisk -l to list your drives
[22:50] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo Hope you find an answer
[22:50] <DIL> siriusblack: determine the relevant drive
[22:51] <eduardo> Jack_Sparrow: thanks, do you know if theres any other way i can use the scanner?
[22:51] <DIL> siriusblack: fdisk /dev/relevantdrive
[22:51] <laughingman> eduardo you can use it if you install XP in a virtual box
[22:51] <siriusblack> itś not in them
[22:51] <Jack_Sparrow> eduardo nope
[22:51] <laughingman> and run the scanner through XP, and set up a shared folder.
[22:51] <DIL> siriusblack: huh
[22:51] <adakole5> i need an answer pls
[22:51] <siriusblack> theres only my HD-drives showing up
[22:52] <Jack_Sparrow> siriusblack Does gparted show your usb stick?
[22:52] <The_PHP_Jedi> I'm having problems with my sound on fresh installs of Debian Etch/Lenny + Ubuntu Hardy. My old install of Feisty, which I upgraded to Hardy, still has sound working. Any clues? I've debugged just about everything :-s

[22:53] <Odd-rationale> theman: http://www.howtoforge.com/gnome_gdesklets_p3 see step 5
[22:53] <eduardo> oooohh!! i found a driver :)
[22:53] <Jack_Sparrow> adakole5 See cedega, wine appdb etc
[22:53] <siriusblack> jack_sparrow: it shows the SD-card at a size of negative 512 bytes
[22:54] <DIL> siriusblack: use the name of the person you are resopnding to Jack_Sparrow
[22:54] <Jack_Sparrow> siriusblack You know it cant be a negative number...   will it let you unmount it and format it to anything
[22:54] <StrongMotive> which program can I use to unrar things?
[22:54] <Trollslayer> evening folks, my first time here
[22:54] <StrongMotive> anyone know any good unrar softare?
[22:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !rar
[22:55] <siriusblack> Jack_Sparrow: no, i can just change the label
[22:55] <iRelinquish> hi trollslayer, and welcome to ubuntu : )
[22:55] <anachronoks> can anyone recommend a screen recorder? i can't get any of the popular ones to work
[22:55] <boggystudios> I can't seem to get ksysguard to connect to a remote machine.  When I try the daemon mode it says connection refused.  When I try ssh it just doesn't connect.  Any Ideas?
[22:55] <anachronoks> i tried istanbul, mydesktoprecorder, and xvidcap
[22:55] <Jack_Sparrow> siriusblack Odd..  I would try the gparted stand alone livecd
[22:56] <Trollslayer> quick question - more people are askign abotu HDMI audio which I have got working on my system - who do I contact to suggest a sticky on the subject?
[22:56] <iRelinquish> i 2nd gparted live cd
[22:56] <siriusblack> gnna try fdisk first...
[22:56] <DIL> Jack_Sparrow: he referred to sda as the SD card
[22:56] <anachronoks> anyone know of a working desktop recorder on gutsy?
[22:56] <amenado> anachronoks-> import does not work for you?
[22:56] <siriusblack> dil: what do i do after fdisk /dev/sda
[22:56] <iRelinquish> in the forums trollslayer?
[22:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Trollslayer Put your info in the pastebin and give us the link and we will see what we can do
[22:56] <anachronoks> amenado: never heard of import, i will check itout
[22:57] <amenado> anachronoks-> it just take a snapshot of your windows
[22:57] <DIL> siriusblack: m
[22:57] <HappyHater> is there a command I can use to view info about my internet connection?
[22:57] <Trollslayer> >iRelingquish< - I was wondering if there was a specific place
[22:57] <anachronoks> amendo: i am looking for a video recorded though
[22:57] <ixion> every time I boot up my machine I have to rmmod appleir and then modprove it again to get it to work.... how can I fix this ?
[22:57] <siriusblack> yea...
[22:57] <siriusblack> dil: then what
[22:57] <amenado> anachronoks-> umm you take multiple snapshots? and sequence them?
[22:57] <zeno_> hi i just installed 8.04 but wireless isnt working. it did on 7.10. lsmod shows the driver is running, but iwlist eth1 scan returns no results
[22:57] <ixion> I believe its because the appleir that gets loaded automatically has the wrong device id associated with it
[22:57] <jinho> hi, I recently tried to tweak my 8.04 installation, using the tips at http://news.softpedia.com/news/Optimize-Ubuntu-8-04-for-Speed-86405.shtml, however now X won't startup, and I can't seem to rechange the files i modified, even though I use sudo- how can I overcome this? Thanks!
[22:58] <anachronoks> amenado: lol, i am sure there is a better solution
[22:58] <gnutron> HappyHater: /sbin/ifconfig  for starters.
[22:58] <DIL> siriusblack: CREATE DPARTITION
[22:58] <theman> thank you odd-rationale odd-rationale your the man
[22:58] <HappyHater> thanks, gnutron
[22:58] <feydr> does anyone have resources on emulating a webcam? maybe having a fake device that just plays an avi?
[22:58] <jjlee> how does one connect a pulseaudio source to a pulseaudio sink?
[22:58] <theman> that was exactly what i was looking for
[22:58] <DUC1> anyone try dual booting ubuntu and opensolaris?
[22:59] <chev_chelios> DUC1: no, but i guess it could be done if you use ubuntu's grub
[22:59] <DUC1> well
[22:59] <siriusblack> dil: wtf... all primary partitions have been defined already,
[22:59] <DUC1> that's my problem
[22:59] <siriusblack> m
[22:59] <chev_chelios> what?
[22:59] <anachronoks> i should clarify, does anyone know of a screen recorder that works in gutsy?
[22:59] <amenado> anachronoks-> proly there is..try  pyvnc2swf  and can you let me know how it works for you?
[22:59] <Trollslayer> >jinho< - start up in text mode the reinitialise the graphics driver? I had to do this with and ATI card
[23:00] <anachronoks> amenado: okay, i will try it, thanks!
[23:00] <ixion> every time I boot up my machine I have to rmmod appleir and then modprove it again to get it to work.... how can I fix this ?
[23:00] <DIL> siriusblack: you have to be aboslutly sure that this is your sd card
[23:00] <DIL> siriusblack: d
[23:00] <jjlee> jinho: which files
[23:00] <dirk_> hello, does anybody know how to lock the screen on suspend and hibernate in xubuntu
[23:00] <siriusblack> yea
[23:00] <DIL> siriusblack: dto delete partition
[23:00] <siriusblack> i deleted all 4
[23:00] <DUC1> I had to install opensolaris first, as it needs the first partition. It would appear that ubuntu erased opensolaris from grub
[23:00] <jinho> I'm having troubles with "sudo", apparently it doesn't work as it should...
[23:00] <theman> ok i got one more question for anybody that cares to answer... how do you fake your ip address with ubuntu? im not talking about the one that your router assigns to you but your real one that is set to you by your isp?
[23:00] <DIL> siriusblack: n
[23:00] <jjlee> jinho: specifically?
[23:01] <chev_chelios> DUC1: if you have opensolaris already installed, install ubuntu on another patrition, and it should autodetect the other one, and even if it does not, you can add one line to grub config file
[23:01] <ixion> theman you cant fake an IP address
[23:01] <Trollslayer> >jinho< I think it's /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[23:01] <ixion> theman you can proxy through another IP address, but you cant fake it
[23:01] <MAHerron> anyone know the package name for mergedfb?
[23:01] <foxhop> My drop down menus just died
[23:01] <DIL> siriusblack: n to create new partition?
[23:01] <theman> oh ok... that sucks lol
[23:01] <foxhop> What would cause gnome/naut to do tis?
[23:01] <chev_chelios> DUC1: ubuntu installed its own grub
[23:01] <theman> i know there is a mac changer
[23:02] <siriusblack> sil: sure
[23:02] <theman> i was wondering if you could do the same thing with an ip
[23:02] <jinho> jjlee: I modified /etc/fstab and /boot/grub/menu.lst
[23:02] <siriusblack> dil: sure *
[23:02] <ixion> theman yes you can spoof a mac address but spoofing IP would just be pointless as the packets would never get back to you
[23:02] <DIL> siriusblack: p
[23:02] <siriusblack> dil: done
[23:02] <Slart> theman: you cant fake your ip.. not on mac, not on windows, not in ubuntu.. it's not for lack of tools
[23:02] <skiter> is it possible see the modules that one program is using?
[23:02] <dirk_> you can use a proxy
[23:02] <chev_chelios> DUC1: and did not autodetect opensolaris. you will need to add a line to grub config file and point that grub to opensolaris path.
[23:02] <fde> ixion: spoofing mac is illegal... please don't advise it here.
[23:02] <siriusblack> dil: partition number 1
[23:02] <jinho> jjlee: coincidentally, you wouldn't happen to be john lee at MRL would you (if that doesn't make sense ignore me)
[23:02] <jjlee> jinho: usual questions - what did you do, what happens, and what did you expect to happen?
[23:02] <Trollslayer> >theman< - surely the outside world will see the ISP address because the router does IP address translation
[23:02] <theman> really? i never thought about it like that... i told you im still a n00b please be patient with me
[23:02] <siriusblack> First cylinder (2-1024, default 2):
[23:02] <DIL> siriusblack: 1 for one partition
[23:02] <DUC1> I got that far, thanks
[23:03] <jinho> jjlee: I followed some of the tips here: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Optimize-Ubuntu-8-04-for-Speed-86405.shtml
[23:03] <jjlee> jinho: MRL doesn't ring a bell
[23:03] <DUC1> just have no idea where to go for the lines I need; I'm gonna try switching over to the opensolaris server
[23:03] <Trollslayer> >fde<  -illegal? No, but pointless I think
[23:03] <chev_chelios> DUC1:  example ( hd0, 0) etc
[23:03] <fde> Slart: yes you can... but also not something for #ubuntu
[23:03] <foxhop> What would cause dropdown menus / lists to break for all gnome/naut?
[23:03] <fde> Trollslayer: No it is illegal.
[23:03] <n6rej> anyone know how to backup teh mysql data files without running mysql?
[23:03] <jjlee> jinho: don't make me read that, pick a specific problem, explain what you did, what happened, what you expected
[23:03] <jinho> jjlee: specifically the ones to tweak the harddrive
[23:03] <siriusblack> dil: First cylinder (2-1024, default 2):
[23:03] <lw0x15> any on knows why i had turn off firefox to listen to music in xmms
[23:03] <fde> Trollslayer: At least to then connect to the internet with that spoofed MAC
[23:04] <Trollslayer> >fed< under what law? And which country?
[23:04] <stroyan> foxhop:  maybe gnome-panel crashed.  If you have no top menu panel, try typing  gnome-panel   in a terminal.
[23:04] <fde> lw0x15: XMMS is not using ESD
[23:04] <chev_chelios> n6rej: try backing up a file where you bd is.
[23:04] <lw0x15> :|
[23:04] <DIL> siriusblack: select it
[23:04] <lw0x15> fde, solution /
[23:04] <jinho> jjlee: I modified /etc/fstab so that it went from something like: UUID=19f70288-7340-40c0-82d1-ee4b218fee1d / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
[23:04] <lw0x15> ?
[23:04] <Slart> fde: I don't agree about the ip faking.. but I agree that this isn't the place to discuss it =)
[23:04] <eduardo> Jack_Sparrow: sorry to bother you again, can u tell me the argument for make please?
[23:04] <n6rej> chev_chelios: thats just it I don't know where mysql stores the db
[23:04] <DIL> siriusblack: 2
[23:04] <siriusblack> dil select it?
[23:04] <jinho> jjlee: to: UUID=19f70288-7340-40c0-82d1-ee4b218fee1d / ext3 noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro,data=writeback 0 1
[23:04] <ripps> Should I install from Hardy-Proposed, or are there any serious problems with it?
[23:04] <siriusblack> ok
[23:04] <jjlee> jinho: so what's the problem right now?
[23:04] <lw0x15> cuz i cant hear the sound on youtube while having xmms on
[23:04] <fde> lw0x15: Make it use ESD? It's in the prefs somewhere... XMMS isn't in Ubuntu though
[23:04] <chev_chelios> n6rej: what are you using?
[23:05] <n6rej> hardy
[23:05] <siriusblack> Last cylinder or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK (2-1024, default 1024):
[23:05] <Jaikkuli> wheni log in.. it tells me something about home and .dmrc and permissions.. anyone know what i am talking about?
[23:05] <grumpygramps> i need to burn a dvd-r through the command line... know any tutorials or walkthroughs for that?
[23:05] <DIL> siriusblack: then the highest 1024
[23:05] <Trollslayer> >ripps< - I've found a few minor issues but seems pretty good
[23:05] <n6rej> chev_chelios: hardy is the distro
[23:05] <fiz1> Is it possible to upgrade firefox 3 to the release candidate yet?
[23:05] <chev_chelios> try the forum n6rej
[23:05] <n6rej> chev kk
[23:05] <siriusblack> dil: done
[23:05] <jinho> jjlee: gdm doesn't startup, but everything else is working, with the exception that I can't modify those files now, not even if I use "sudo"
[23:05] <andersbr> Quick question:  Is Firefox supposed to close when you hit C-x?
[23:05] <chev_chelios> n6rej:  i know. and you installed mysql from a repo?
[23:05] <foxhop> stroyan: What would cause dropdown menus / lists to break for all gnome/naut?  A panel is already running
[23:05] <n6rej> chev_chelios: yeah
[23:05] <jjlee> jinho: what exactly do you type, what happens then, what did you expect to happen?
[23:05] <fde> fiz1: there are PPA's for it... you can check planet.ubuntu.com ... someone was discussing how earlier
[23:05] <ixion> jinho: startx does what ?
[23:05] <Slart> andersbr: mine doesn't
[23:05] <DIL> siriusblack: w to eritr it
[23:05] <andersbr> Slart:  FF3?
[23:06] <DIL> siriusblack: w to write
[23:06] <foxhop> Seems the dropdown menus are working they are just showing up behind everything else
[23:06] <Slart> andersbr: yes.. the regular one in hardy
[23:06] <chev_chelios> n6rej: well, I think you should find what you are looking for on the forums.
[23:06] <jinho> jjlee: I'm basically in console mode- I typed "sudo vim /etc/fstab" hoping to be able to change the file back to the way it was, but vim won't let me save
[23:06] <Miesco> I get choppy sound while playing Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, like it will play a sound every second, the rest of the game works fine, how might I troubleshoot this?
[23:06] <fiz1> fde: any idea when the final will be out?
[23:06] <n6rej> chev_chelios: kk
[23:06] <siriusblack> WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 13: Permission denied.
[23:06] <siriusblack> The kernel still uses the old table.
[23:06] <siriusblack> The new table will be used at the next reboot.
[23:06] <andersbr> Slart:  Mine is woefully crash-happy.
[23:06] <siriusblack> Syncing disks.
[23:06] <stroyan> foxhop:  So you have a top panel with labels like "Applications" but clicking on them brings up no menu?
[23:06] <ibioss> hey. I have an Intel X3100 and in 8.04 desktop effects "Normal" works, but in 7.10 it does not, any idea?
[23:06] <jjlee> jinho: what does vim say when you attempt to save?
[23:06] <fde> fiz1: When it's ready (although on Linux, it'll be released with a critical bug from what I've heard  :/ )
[23:06] <chev_chelios> n6rej: etc/mysql perhaps?
[23:06] <Trollslayer> >anders< - what hardware?
[23:06] <Slart> andersbr: is ctrl+x supposed to do something? some kind of plugin problem?
[23:07] <jinho> jjlee: before the file opens up it says "Error detected while processing /usr/share/vim/vim71/debian.vim: line 58: E483: Can't get temp file name"
[23:07] <n6rej> chev_chelios: thats what I'm hoping.. either there or /var
[23:07] <fde> andersbr: ctrl x is supposed to cut
[23:07] <ixion> jinho: press the escape key, followed by a colon and the letters wq and an exclamation mark... :wq!
[23:07] <fiz1> fde: yeah, im just ready to get all my old extensions working again, such a pain being without them
[23:07] <jjlee> jinho: df -h
[23:07] <siriusblack> well, iĺl reboot
[23:07] <foxhop> stroyan: i have a top menu, clicking them brings up a list, but the list goes behind other windows
[23:07] <andersbr> Slart:  I don't think so.  I hit it accidentally.
[23:07] <tripps> so does suspend, etc. work better in heron? is it new code?
[23:07] <ixion> jinho: that will force vim to save the changes
[23:07] <chev_chelios> n6rej: i google-fu mysql and ubuntu file path, and i think it should be /etc/mysql
[23:07] <stroyan> foxhop:  That's a new one to me.
[23:07] <fde> fiz1: what extensions? there is a way to force them to work... I forget how though, google
[23:07] <ceil420> !alternate
[23:08] <ixion> every time I boot up my machine I have to rmmod appleir and then modprobe it again to get it to work.... how can I fix this ?
[23:08] <n6rej> chev_chelios: ok, then i'm safe cause i backed up all of /var and /etc
[23:08] <fiz1> fde: most of the usual, foxmarks, themes, just little things
[23:08] <jinho> jjlee: wq! gives me "/etc/fstab E212: Can't open file for writing
[23:08] <fiz1> fde: thanks anyway, take it easy:)
[23:08]  * fde has no idea what a foxmark is
[23:08] <jjlee> jinho: type df -h
[23:08] <chev_chelios> n6rej: there you go, but just to be doublesafe, google-fu it
[23:08] <ceil420> can i pick and choose what packages to install with the alternate cd?
[23:08] <n6rej> chev_chelios: yep.. ok.. off to fix the server
[23:08] <DIL> siriusblack: have you rebooted yet
[23:08] <jjlee> jinho: "df -h" into bash prompt, that is, not into vim
[23:08] <tripps> !acpi
[23:09] <fiz1> fde: foxmarks is a exension that saves your bookmarks on a server so that you can keep them sycronized over several computers
[23:09] <tripps> !suspend
[23:09] <ixion> jinho: and you opened it with sudo? if so your file system has been mounted as read only or something
[23:09] <jinho> ixion: wq! doen't work, it adamntly refuses to save, despite me trying to override and despite the fact that I used sudo
[23:09]  * Slart wants an extension that doesn't send my bookmarks off to some weirdo server
[23:09] <fde> ceil420: no, you can limit what is installed based on function, then install explicitly, that's about it....
[23:09] <DIL> siriusblack: you have to format it
[23:09] <ceil420> fde, is there no way to install Ubuntu without all it's crap? ;x
[23:09] <jinho> jjlee: do you want me to rewrite everything here?
[23:10] <Slart> ceil420: I think there's a minimal version
[23:10] <iRelinquish> ceil420, server edition
[23:10] <jjlee> jinho: huh?  did you run df -h yet?
[23:10] <ceil420> Slart, minimal version won't boot for me
[23:10] <chev_chelios> n6rej: good luck
[23:10] <n6rej> ty
[23:10] <jinho> jjlee: yeah, sorry I got the list
[23:10] <fde> ceil420: sure... alternate in 'expert' mode... or the server install, again, not installing everything
[23:10] <ixion> jinho: boot from the linux CD... mount the file system there are read write and try again
[23:10] <jjlee> jinho: don't paste the output here
[23:10] <iRelinquish> ubuntu JEOS
[23:10] <jinho> jjlee: /dev/sdb1, varrun, varlock, udev, devshm
[23:10] <Slart> ceil420: well, who would have thought that.. the crap was there for a reason ;)
[23:10] <iRelinquish> Just enough operation system, ceil its ubuntu jeos
[23:11] <jjlee> jinho: just look at output, consider if you have any free space on the partition on which /tmp is mounted
[23:11] <jjlee> or on which / is mounted
[23:11] <jinho> jjlee: I have lots of free space
[23:11] <jjlee> good
[23:11] <fde> Slart: Other than the decision that choice is confusing, there is no reason.
[23:11] <ixion> jinho: type mount --- are any file systems read only ?
[23:11] <StuckMojo> ??output parameter
[23:11] <ceil420> fde, but is it just gonna have some vague things like "desktop", "server", "office", "design", etc, or can i choose 'xfce', 'apache and mysql', 'abiword' and 'gimp'?
[23:11] <StuckMojo> ??out params
[23:11] <DIL> siriusblack: you have to format it
[23:11] <StuckMojo> wrong channel
[23:11] <jjlee> jinho: sudo touch /tmp/foo
[23:11] <Slart> fde: huh?
[23:12]  * TopoMorto is Going To Sleep :))
[23:12] <jinho> jjlee: cannot touch
[23:12] <siriusblack> dil: partition disappeared too, with restart
[23:12] <jinho> jjlee: Read-only file system
[23:12] <alt12> hi, i changed routers today and can't connect to the shared folders in other computers on my network, i have to type out the entire ip address
[23:12] <alt12> is there a way to 'reset' this?
[23:12] <ceil420> !server
[23:12] <jjlee> jinho: what did you mount readonly?
[23:12] <DIL> siriusblack: it should be blank
[23:12] <fde> ceil420: yes.. it'll give you things like "Ubuntu Desktop" "Kubuntu Desktop" "Apache" "MySQL" ... etc, nothing for specific packages... just deslect them all, and use apt after
[23:12] <ouellettesr> is anyone else expierencing internet connection problems or is it just me?
[23:13] <jjlee> remount it rw
[23:13] <siriusblack> dil:p?
[23:13] <ixion> ping?
[23:13] <ixion> woah
[23:13] <ceil420> fde, alright, i guess i'll do that :x
[23:13] <ouellettesr> i havent been able to connect to this channel most of the day
[23:13] <bascule> ixion: pong
[23:13] <DIL> siriusblack: use fdisk again
[23:13] <ceil420> fde, ought to be a fast install, anyway :p cheers o/
[23:13] <jinho> jjlee: I booted up the system as normal, except gdm failed to come up, and then I logged in, except now everything is read-only
[23:13] <fde> Slart: Where did I lose you? Other than base, there is no need for anything in Ubuntu... it is there to give a complete system that doesn't confuse n00bs with choice.
[23:13] <siriusblack> ya
[23:13] <jinho> jjlee: how would I remount as rw?
[23:13] <ixion> bascule: thanks, im lagging bad
[23:13] <ixion> ah so it was mounted read only
[23:14] <DIL> siriusblack: use fdisk to format it
[23:14] <bascule> jinho: mount -o remount,rw /where/ever
[23:14] <ixion> unount it first
[23:14] <jjlee> jinho: ah, perhaps there was an fsck failure
[23:14] <ixion> oh remount
[23:14] <ixion> nm
[23:14] <jjlee> look in dmesg
[23:14] <jjlee> dmesg | less
[23:14] <siriusblack> how
[23:14] <fde> Slart: I was responding to your statement to ceil420
[23:14] <Slart> fde: ah.. yes.. I understand now.. it's getting late.. I blame it on lack of coffee
[23:14] <siriusblack> fdisk -f /dev/sda?
[23:14] <alt12> hi, i changed routers today and can't connect to the shared folders in other computers on my network, i have to type out the entire ip address. seems like its looking for the other computers based on the old ip addresses, can some one help me?
[23:14] <jjlee> type "/" (without quotes) in less to search.  Search for "fsck" (without quotes)
[23:14] <daemon3_> I tried using instructions here (http://gimpel.gi.funpic.de/wiki/index.php?title=Howto:convert_aac/mp4_to_wav/mp3/ogg_on_Linux) to convert m4a to mp3, but it didn't seem to work.  Please help.  Thanks.
[23:14] <bascule> siriusblack: for what?
[23:15] <ceil420> Slart, tea is superior :)
[23:15] <DIL> siriusblack: same procedures but will use t
[23:15] <ixion> alt12: do you have a DNS server on your network ?

[23:15] <kushal1> Hello, I am making a home DVD with about 200 short clips using Devede. I have already added about 60 files one at a time but my hand is starting to hurt. It is also really boring. Is there a way for me to add a bunch of mpg files on to the devede list like a batch or drag and drop? please let me know. thanks  (please answer)
[23:15] <alt12> ixion, wouldn't that be my router?
[23:15] <fde> ceil420: bah... has less caffeine, so it loses  :P
[23:15] <jjlee> jinho: anything about readonly?
[23:15] <ceil420> the only coffee i can drink is the french cafe stuff at work
[23:15] <alexi5> after i installed the fglrx driver for my ati gfx card the fonts appear to be very large
[23:15] <jjlee> normally, I think filesystems get mounted rw quite early on
[23:15] <ceil420> fde, i savour the flavour, not the caffeine count :p
[23:15] <alexi5> how can is olve this
[23:15] <jjlee> post your fstab in the pastebin
[23:15] <siriusblack> no, doest work
[23:15] <jinho> jjlee: nothing about readonly
[23:16] <ixion> alt12: depends on the size of the network.... if when you try communicate via a hostname its resolving the old IP address it means that DNS has not updated... reboot whatever might be your DNS server
[23:16] <siriusblack> -t is invalid
[23:16] <jinho> jjlee: k, one sec
[23:16] <fde> ceil420: But... the flavor has little effect on your state of tiredness...
[23:16] <DIL> siriusblack: sudo fdisk /dev/sd?
[23:16] <Miesco> ah ha, Okay I am getting this when I play Quake Wars: preparing audio device for output
