[02:25] <ubotu> knifepoint LokiListens: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:26] <scales> it's installing now
[02:26] <LokiListens> i was about to say something like that about automatix
[02:26] <steveire> mc44: I wouldn't have any trouble changing grub. I just wonder if it's as simple as copy the stuff over.
[02:26] <knifepoint> bah it works fine
[02:26] <javaJake> Anyone here use BackupPC? I need to know how to upload the backups it makes onto an FTP server.
[02:26] <crdlb> knifepoint, feisty uses gnome-volume-manager (system>preferences>removable drives and media)
[02:26] <julius> hello
[02:26] <knifepoint> thanks crdlb
[02:26] <mc44> steveire: sure, as long as grub is pointing at the right partition
[02:26] <ziroday> !welcome | julius
[02:26] <ubotu> julius: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[02:26] <steveire> Has anyone tried copying partitions? You should use dd right?
[02:26] <Stephen> ziroday: yes, i do have a wireless card
[02:26] <mc44> steveire: and you may have to change fstab
[02:26] <Me2resh> HowardTheCoward, u think this is it http://www.debuntu.org/2006/02/22/7-virtual-hosting-using-apache-2?
[02:27] <steveire> mc44: Yeah, that stuff won't be a problem

[02:28] <HowardTheCoward> Me2resh: try it, looks simple
[02:28] <defrysk> scales, run envy from the menu
[02:28] <jonathan_> ubotu is a bot?
[02:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a bot? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:28] <mc44> jonathan_: yes

[02:28] <jonathan_> he2
[02:28] <knifepoint> crdlb: is there any other way to edit it than the GUI because i want to run the script for a certain USB soundcard
[02:28] <mc44> !bot | jonathan_
[02:28] <ubotu> jonathan_: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[02:29] <defrysk> and scales you know envy is not supported by ubuntu so,,, you are off topic
[02:29] <walnut> hello everybody .... is there anyone who knows how to install cspace on feisty?
[02:29] <jonathan_> it's very cool!
[02:29] <jonathan_> anybody a bot in here after ubotu?
[02:29] <jonathan_> he2
[02:29] <LokiListens> anyone at all have ideas on why it won't recognize dvds?
[02:29] <_Ahti_> Anyone here use BitTorrent? Which would you say is better... Azureus, or Deluge?
[02:29] <scales> defrysk: what do you mean it's not supported
[02:29] <LokiListens> _Aht_ i prefer Azureus
[02:30] <defrysk> scales, its not an ubuntu product
[02:30] <_Ahti_> LokiListens: Yeah? The thing about Azureus though, its in Java...
[02:30] <mc44> scales: it tends to break
[02:31] <knifepoint> _Aht_: i know you didnt list it but ktorrents not to bad
[02:31] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: do you have codecs?
[02:31] <_Ahti_> LokiListens: Yeah, KTorrent is mad, but i dislike running KDE programs on GNOME and vice versa
[02:31] <scales> mc44: then how to install nvidia drivers
[02:31] <LokiListens> _Ahti_ agreed, but it just fits my tastes better.  i think those two and ktorrent are about the same in fucntionality
[02:31] <scales> ??
[02:31] <idefixx> how does ubuntu set LC_stuff (locales)? I can choose a language in the gnome greeter... but when i edit /etc/environment or /etc/default/locale that doesnt do anything.
[02:31] <mc44> scales: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:31] <jimmy> hey
[02:31] <LokiListens> Frogzoo i have installed all codecs from the wiki
[02:31] <Frogzoo> idefixx: logout/back in to get new env't
[02:31] <scales> utlimate 1.3 on ubuntu 6.10
[02:31] <scales> ultlmate 1.3 on ubuntu 6.10
[02:31] <knifepoint> _Aht_: fair enough never looked for a gtk replacement
[02:31] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: & libdecss2?
[02:31] <mc44> scales: ultimate?! I have no idea what that is. Why don't you use feisty
[02:31] <defrysk> _Ahti_, try deluge-torrent or transmission
[02:31] <crdlb> scales, do a fresh install of regular feisty
[02:31] <jimmy> is it even possible to to a "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" on the live CD?
[02:32] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i believe so, i'll check
[02:32] <jonathan_> ach! Why I can't using beryl on my vmware?
[02:32] <firedrops> lol
[02:32] <defrysk> _Ahti_, as a gnome user I think transmission is great
[02:32] <idefixx> Frogzoo: i know that i still dont know what sets them.
[02:32] <mc44> jonathan_: because it doesn't support 3d
[02:32] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: libdvdcss2 actually
[02:32] <firedrops> jonathaN, there's no 3d accleration
[02:32] <firedrops> inside vmware
[02:32] <jonathan_> there is no 3d acceleration on my vmware?
[02:32] <scales> i have 7.04 but it's to simpli it doesn't all the programs like ultimate 1.3
[02:32] <jonathan_> how can?
[02:32] <knifepoint> what does feisty use instead of hotplug i want to run a script when a usb soundcard is inserted anyone? volume manager doesnt work
[02:32] <firedrops> i mean, i think there's an experimental module...
[02:32] <mc44> jonathan_: you can't
[02:33] <Pici> jonathan_: It doesnt support it, period.
[02:33] <mc44> firedrops: for workstation only I think
[02:33] <julius> please help me, I have to send Ubuntu repository on DVD to Congo but It doesn't work. I get a "dists" and a "pool" file on the DVD. It seems correct i think
[02:33] <macsim> how can I remove the beryl shadow ?
[02:33] <jonathan_> oh...
[02:33] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i have the newest version
[02:33] <Stephen> im trying to connect to a vpn network for internet access. can some pleeeese help? im really stuck!

[02:33] <firedrops> never tested it though
[02:33] <jonathan_> I always wanted to using beryl
[02:33] <Frogzoo> idefixx: update-locale ?
[02:33] <mc44> jonathan_: then install ubuntu properly :)
[02:33] <firedrops> jonathan_, put the real thing
[02:34] <firedrops> virtualization is the last option, at least to me
[02:34] <firedrops> :P
[02:34] <jonathan_> he2, my PC broken.. I can't install xp, or ubuntu as well

[02:34] <scales> how to install nvidia drivers on ubuntu 6.10
[02:34] <jimmy> is it even possible to to a "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" on the live CD?
[02:34] <jimmy> *do a
[02:34] <mc44> !nvidia | scales
[02:34] <ubotu> scales: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:34] <idefixx> Frogzoo: afaik that just changes /etc/default/locale .. which doesnt change anything. as stated before :)
[02:34] <walnut> anyone who knows how to install cspace on feisty?
[02:34] <firedrops> jimmy, theoretically
[02:35] <firedrops> never tested installing anything though
[02:35] <jimmy> mmm, that dosnt sound to promising :(
[02:35] <LokiListens> frogzoo, any other thoughts?
[02:35] <firedrops> why would you want to do that?
[02:35] <confusednoob> anyway to convert .rpm to .deb?
[02:35] <jimmy> well im trying to install Mythbuntu, and i was having an error on install, so someone suggested doing that..
[02:35] <jonathan_> but if my VGA is on board can I'm using beryl?
[02:35] <macsim> confusednoob: alien
[02:35] <HowardTheCoward> confusednoob: alien, but don't do that
[02:35] <jimmy> but i get an error trying to do it.
[02:36] <Frogzoo> idefixx: worth a shot though
[02:36] <mc44> !rpm | confusednoob
[02:36] <ubotu> confusednoob: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[02:36] <Pici> !alien | confusednoob
[02:36] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: you tried vlc?
[02:36] <knifepoint> Anyone know what feisty uses instead of hotplug?
[02:36] <confusednoob> ok :(
[02:36] <firedrops> jimmy, if i am understanding what you're saying....you need to install ubuntu first
[02:36] <mc44> confusednoob: what are you trying to install
[02:36] <firedrops> before you implement that
[02:36] <confusednoob> nestopia its a nes emulator
[02:36] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i will, but file browser doesn't even recognize
[02:37] <jimmy> yeh this is Mythbuntu (Ubuntu with MythTV installed), but it dosn't like me :(
[02:37] <jimmy> i may install ubuntu and then install MythTV but that seems harder..
[02:37] <mc44> jimmy: asak in #mythbuntun :P
[02:37] <mc44> *mythbuntu
[02:37] <jimmy> i have, they are all afk :p
[02:37] <mc44> heh
[02:37] <jonathan_> anybody can help me to using beryl?
[02:38] <confusednoob> i found the sources too but have no idea what to do with them
[02:38] <jonathan_> or compiz?
[02:38] <DJ-_-> Hi, is rtorrent the best deal for ubuntu-server OS
[02:38] <idefixx> Frogzoo: i allready edit the usual system files... without the result i would have expected. thats why im asking. well.. gonna start ubuntu without gdm/kdm and see what the locals say at that point.
[02:38] <_Ahti_> *sigh* What is the best BitTorrent client for GNOME, i like Deluge but think its not as configurable as i'd like, Azureus is java and hence a no-no... i don't like mixing KDE apps with GNOME enviroment and vice versa. Should i emulate uTorrent under WINE?
[02:38] <DJ-_-> i mean good*
[02:38] <Pici> !torrent
[02:38] <ubotu> Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt), rTorrent (C++) -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[02:38] <LokiListens> frogzoo, no response with vlc
[02:39] <LokiListens> frogzoo, it is recognizing normal cds
[02:39] <jimmy> is it hard to install MythTV yourself?
[02:39] <DJ-_-> can you get me a good torrent client's name for ubuntu-server
[02:39] <mc44> !mythv | jimmy
[02:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mythv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:39] <Narada> hi which package contains the command epstopdf
[02:40] <DJ-_-> confusednoob: can i set upload limits?
[02:40] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: ls -l /dev/dvd
[02:40] <HowardTheCoward> DJ-_-: i'd suggest you to open the wikipedia page for bittorrent, to scroll down to the list of clients and try them one by one.
[02:40] <noob> stop saying noob :)
[02:40] <Pici> !noob | noob
[02:40] <ubotu> noob: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[02:40] <LokiListens> frogzoo, uncertain, where should that be?
[02:40] <Pici> noob: :p
[02:40] <confusednoob> DJ i cant remember exactly
[02:41] <knifepoint> !hotplug
[02:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hotplug - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:41] <confusednoob> i do know you have to have mysql installed to use it though
[02:41] <jonathan_> exiit
[02:41] <DJ-_-> confusedn00b: ok
[02:41] <Plantain> With much hackery, I've got twinview working, but my screens are backwards, how might I change the orientation of them?
[02:41] <confusednoob> im pretty sure its rather configurable though
[02:41] <_Ahti_> knifepoint: Ubuntu doesn't use hotplug anymore, its all done by udev
[02:41] <DJ-_-> confusednoob: well mysql...dont think i am looking for heavy stuff
[02:41] <Plantain> So if I move to the left of the left screen, it appears on the right of the right screen
[02:41] <Plantain> mysql is easy stuff
[02:42] <DJ-_-> Plantain: more packages...less performance
[02:42] <confusednoob> dj http://www.torrentflux.com/
[02:42] <DJ-_-> k
[02:42] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: ls -l /dev/dvd

[02:44] <Plantain> DJ-_-: You could probably use SQLLite, which is a lot faster
[02:44] <confusednoob> command line only but everyone says the commands are rather simple
[02:44] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: ls -l /dev/cdrom
[02:44] <HowardTheCoward> confusednoob: rtorrent is not command-line only
[02:45] <Sidey> ok.. I finally made it lol.. guys I need simple guidance before I trash the drive with my normal windows based tools..

[02:46] <HowardTheCoward> confusednoob: it has a ncurses interface. not very cute, but still saves you from the hassle of typing long commands in console
[02:46] <DJ-_-> howardthecoward: rtorrent sounds perfect then
[02:46] <DJ-_-> howardthecoward: for the server
[02:47] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i have tried multiple dvds, so it's not scratches or anything
[02:47] <aze_> hi
[02:48] <confusednoob> HowardTheCoward:  i think ill have to check that one out then since its not command line only
[02:48] <confusednoob> anyone have experience compiling from source?
[02:49] <HowardTheCoward> confusednoob: if you mean rtorrent, you will also need libtorrent for it
[02:49] <Pici> !compile | confusednoob
[02:49] <ubotu> confusednoob: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[02:49] <DJ-_-> HowardTheCoward: how do you close that..rtorrent

[02:49] <DJ-_-> oh ok

[03:02] <d1> logmein: you have a URL of a good fix?
[03:02] <ark__> hello
[03:03] <Frogzoo> yeah LokiListens it's odd - this is just stock install?

[03:03] <julius> logmein, Jack_Sparrow, I want to put Ubuntu repository on DVD. So I download them all, use debpartial, debcopy.  When I burn what's inside "ubuntu0", Synaptic doesn't seem to understand that the DVD is a source of packages
[03:03] <logmein> julius: you want to install ubuntu to a dvd? yeah that should work
[03:03] <LokiListens> frogzoo, yes, ubuntu off the paid for cd-rom, computer came with dvd drive
[03:03] <DJ-_-> brb
[03:04] <BlueDevil> i'm running feisty on a core2duo/asus p5b-deluxe and it won't see the whole 4GB of ram, it only sees 2GB; what can i do to fix it?
[03:04] <d1> why would repartitioning do anything to a liveCD
[03:04] <d1> ?
[03:04] <logmein> julius: if you want to shove a bunch of files on a dvd then its not an image
[03:04] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: There were two parts to make that cd dvd thing work..
[03:04] <julius> logmein, no I just want repository on DVD to send them to Congo
[03:04] <logmein> d1: your installing the liveCD right?
[03:04] <my_haz> is there a tool that you can script mouse movments and mouse clicks with?
[03:04] <d1> yea
[03:08] <logmein> julius: well download the directory and copy it to dvd
[03:08] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: one was the files the other was the file list and you had to also add the dvd as a repo in synaptic..
[03:08] <julius> logmein, the directory is about 15 go
[03:08] <my_haz> like i would like to script the clicking of two buttons which are on different parts of my window
[03:08] <logmein> julius: oh so your using compression and don't want to compress it all ok
[03:08] <freeagy> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiLK7S2fXqQ
[03:08] <julius> logmein, that's why I used debcopy and debpartial to creat 4 directory
[03:08] <freeagy> lol
[03:08] <Me2resh> how can i add more character encodings to evolution mail ?
[03:08] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, I try to add the DVD as a repo... wait I show you
[03:08] <logmein> julius: that's confusing, ohhh so your adding a local directory to the repository list?
[03:08] <julius> logmein, yep that's what I did
[03:08] <julius> It works when the 4 directorys are on my external HD
[03:08] <julius> but when I burn one of them, it doesn't seem to be recognized by synaptic
[03:08] <NemosNemos1> Hi
[03:08] <NemosNemos1> Esecuzione di 'grub-install (hd0)' fallita.
[03:08] <NemosNemos1> Questo  un errore fatale.
[03:08] <idefixx> julius: are you sure the repository is ok? what does apt-get update say when you run it?
[03:08] <NemosNemos1> What do I have to do?
[03:08] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: LEt me see if I can find the tutorial on that..
[03:08] <julius> idefixx, look here : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25397/
[03:08] <julius> it seems to work
[03:08] <zumi> the quality of my sound is very bad, where do i get nforce2 drivers from?
[03:08] <mario_> test
[03:08] <Frogzoo> BlueDevil: you might need to pass a kernel option to get 4gig iirc
[03:08] <logmein> zumi: alsa and by using sound mixer, also sound under wine is different settings
[03:08] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i've just read that rebooting with a dvd in drive sometimes, works, so i will be back
[03:08] <idefixx> julius: so the same 4 dirs work of the hd but when you just burn them to a dvd they dont anymor?
[03:08] <ndee> hello there, I want to access "man 2 read" but it tells me that there is no manual entry for read in section 2 although there should be one.
[03:08] <julius> idefixx, that's it... wait I show you
[03:08] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: i googled it and found some "fixes" like blacklist intel_agp and tweak bios, but they don't work :(
[03:08] <logmein> julius: what is the dvd's filesystem? it has to be ext3 doesn't it
[03:08] <Me2resh> how can i add more character encodings to evolution mail ?
[03:08] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: at boot bios sees 4096MB
[03:08] <julius> logmein, ohhhhhh !!! it must be ext3 ? I just burn it without any options
[03:08] <idefixx> julius: well thats in french :) cant to much with it.. let me see what i can remember
[03:09] <Supaplex> ndee: you'd have to install the package that provides it.
[03:09] <ndee> Supaplex: which package is that?
[03:09] <julius> idefixx, I speak french :)
[03:09] <julius> is it racoon's blog ?
[03:09] <Pici> julius: I know theres an option to specify a deb cdrom, I just cant rememebr it
[03:09] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: : even kernel sees it at boot, but then every app reports 2GB
[03:09] <Supaplex> ndee: use apt-file search
[03:09] <julius> Just check here : I put the DVD in the sources.list and try an apt-get update : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25398/
[03:09] <Pici> julius: try using apt-cdrom
[03:09] <julius> Pici, hmmmm... maybe that's the problem
[03:10] <julius> Pici, apt-cdrom doesn't work... It doesn't find the dvd repo
[03:10] <BlueDevil> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25399/
[03:10] <ndee> Supaplex: is that a man page browser?
[03:11] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25399/
[03:11] <julius> with the 4 repository on the external HD : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25397/     |   with one directory on the DVD : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25398/
[03:11] <lt> hy
[03:11] <lt> i cant install my soundblaster audigy
[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: http://swik.net/opensource/del.icio.us+tag%2Fopensource/APTonCD+-+download+and+create+repository+on+CD/0ki8
[03:12] <Jimmey> lt, I have one - What is the problem?
[03:12] <lt> i cant find the driver
[03:12] <tck> should one install linux-686 for feisty to improve CPU performance over the generic one?
[03:12] <tck> i have a 1.5 ghz celeron
[03:12] <hylje> tck: 686 gets some arch-specific optimization
[03:12] <TakeOut{u}> tck, not worth it
[03:12] <idefixx> julius: well like Pici said try cdrom.. even though it should work with file, imo.
[03:12] <tck> ok
[03:13] <Jimmey> lt, the driver is already installed..You just make sure that the computer is trying to use the Audigy, and not the onboard sound chip. Let me find you a link on how to do thit
[03:13] <Frogzoo> BlueDevil: just an idea, try the linux-image-server-bigiron kernel
[03:13] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, I'll check this but, you understand...... my directory's are working but only if they're not burn :( I'd like to understand what doesn't work
[03:14] <Sidey> guys.. sorry to bother. but I got grub questions for stage 1.. can someone help
[03:14] <Jimmey> lt, follow this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 - Scroll to where it says "Configuring default soundcards / stopping multiple soundcards from switching"
[03:14] <lt> ok, thx!!
[03:14] <Frogzoo> BlueDevil: or a bios upgrade might fix it
[03:17] <vigneswari> idefixx, i think that panel is not coming with gnome-panel.
[03:17] <aMMuNix> I want to resize my ext3 partition, why can't I do that?
[03:17] <vigneswari> idefixx, anymore idea?
[03:17] <magnetron> !info nvu
[03:17] <ubotu> Package nvu does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:17] <julius> Is it possible to burn an ext3 DVD ? O_o
[03:18] <idefixx> vigneswari: no.. i dont even have gnome here sry.. was just a guess. what is your problem with the panel?
[03:18] <aMMuNix> why can't I resize my ext3 partition?
[03:18] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: you can, but you can't move the start of the partition - use gparted
[03:19] <vigneswari> idefixx, no probs yeah. i want to customize
[03:19] <LokiListens> frogzoo, reboot made no difference, i continue to google
[03:19] <aMMuNix> what do you mean the start of the partition Frogzoo?
[03:19] <aMMuNix> and I am using GParted, that option cannot be clicked Frogzoo
[03:20] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: this is silly, it should just work - can you at least mount the dvd?
[03:21] <idefixx> julius: i justed check with my own local repo. when it says ignore here the Packages file is missing, but the dir exists. does the file still start with a capital 'P'?
[03:21] <LokiListens> frogzoo, "unable to mount, there may be no media in drive"
[03:21] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, what do I have to do in order to resize it then? (all I want is to take some free space out of it)
[03:21] <julius> idefixx, I don't understand ? which file ? Packages.gz ?
[03:21] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: /var/log/messages might give a clue
[03:22] <idefixx> julius: yes
[03:22] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: just run gparted & wind back the size
[03:22] <LokiListens> frogzoo, okay, is that a gedit?
[03:22] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, I am, the resize option cannot be clicked
[03:22] <Frogzoo> LokiListens: learn to use 'less'
[03:22] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, right click on the partition, click "umount"
[03:23] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: oh, cos the partition is mounted - you'll need to boot the livecd & resize
[03:23] <aMMuNix> ah
[03:23] <vigneswari> which package is responsible for bringing the panel with log out, hibernate, switch user, shutdown icons
[03:23] <zmeiat_joro> how do I add an entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst for debian? I have ubuntu installed and I installed debian too but in the end it failed to change grub
[03:23] <aMMuNix> I'll do that Frogzoo, thanks
[03:23] <Poromenos> how do i zip something from stdin?
[03:23] <julius> idefixx, yes there's a capital
[03:23] <zmeiat_joro> http://grub.enbug.org/Debian ?
[03:23] <julius> idefixx, I did this : http://www.howtoforge.com/dvd_images_of_ubuntu_repositories
[03:24] <fathor> hy
[03:24] <julius> but I didn't make iso files... I burn the directory. This can be the problem... But why ?
[03:24] <LokiListens> frogzoo, i have no log directory in /var
[03:24] <iratsu> what does rc mean in `dpkg-l`?
[03:24] <idefixx> julius: let me see.. also check for the Release file it should be there, too.
[03:25] <julius> hmmm
[03:25] <julius> I try with the .iso
[03:26] <idefixx> julius: howto sounds good never mirrored stuff to a dvd but i know debpartial works just fine.. i've got no idea why that wouldnt work.
[03:28] <jrib> iratsu: the first two lines of output explain: r is for Removed and c is for Config-files
[03:28] <julius> idefixx, i think the options of making the iso will help (sorry for the bad english)
[03:28] <julius> I try this and I'll tell you if it works
[03:28] <general> anyone : Er, can I get some help regarding XFCE?
[03:28] <thmcmahon> !anyone | general
[03:28] <ubotu> general: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:28] <general> ubotu : okay, sorry. I need to install XFCE on Ubuntu but don't want to install the entire xubuntu-desktop package because it replaces the bootscreen and all. So, should apt-get install xfce work?
[03:28] <linuxor> Salut, quel logiciel me permet de faire defiler mes photos avec une music en ariere plan? merci bcp
[03:29] <confusednoob> where can i find a very indepth step by step guide to compiling from source?
[03:29] <thmcmahon> general: why don't you want to replace the boot screen
[03:29] <magnetron> !fr | linuxor
[03:29] <ubotu> linuxor: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[03:29] <idefixx> julius: well but the howto states to use 'apt-crom' to add the repo? did you do that? because i wounder why you still got 'deb file:/...' in your sources.list.
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: I am back.. Did you get it figured out yet?
[03:30] <LokiListens> frogzoo, thanks for all the help.  i'll keep trying from here.  if you think of anything, PM me, please
[03:30] <general> thmcmahon : I want to retain my GNOME desktop and the default bootscreen etc. I'd only like to try XFCE. I haven't decided to switch to it yet.
[03:30] <linuxor> ubotu, sorry

[03:31] <markymarkus> Hi folks
[03:31] <markymarkus> how do i change my encoding to Latin1?
[03:31] <Wips> is it possible to install Windows on another partition after I've installed Ubuntu?
[03:31] <thmcmahon> general: ah ok, just type "sudo apt-get install xfce4"
[03:31] <alesan> re
[03:31] <Me2resh> anybody here has good experience with webmin ?
[03:31] <general> thmcmahon : Okay, thanks a lot!
[03:31] <markymarkus> how do i change my encoding to Latin1?
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Wips: YEs, but Windows is the one that will fight you later if it is not the first OS on the first drive
[03:32] <Wips> Jack_Sparrow: Oh, in what ways?
[03:32] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, you there?
[03:32] <jli> general: just do apt-get -s install xubuntu-desktop (i think) and it'll give you a list of all the packages that get installed. copy and paste those into a text editor and remove the ones you don't want and then apt-get install those
[03:32] <JuJuBee> What should I be using to authenticate in a client server environment?  I tried NIS (broken) and LDAP(cant get to work).
[03:32] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: aye
[03:32] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, I'm now talking from the LiveCD, it gives me a different error now
[03:32] <general> jli : Okay, I'll try that.
[03:33] <jli> general: don't forget the -s !
[03:33] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, it says /dev/sda1 is mounted
[03:33] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: that's bad, it shouldn't
[03:33] <julius> idefixx, I can't do any "ls" on the dvd. I think making the iso will solve the problem...
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Wips: I am not awake enough to remember the problems, just that it was a problem
[03:33] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: well unmount it
[03:33] <general> jli : Yeah, got it :-)
[03:33] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, I'll tell you this in about 30 min :p
[03:33] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, wow I'm dumb
[03:33] <Wips> Jack_Sparrow: Ok :)
[03:33] <idefixx> julius: i guess so
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, still won't work
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: did you post your repo file list?
[03:37] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, what do you mean ? That's only the Ubuntu repo.
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: sure it will
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, it ain't working :P
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> julius: I wanted to see how you added your dvd to the repo list
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: is the disk full?
[03:37] <aMMuNix> nop, 60gigs free
[03:37] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: pls dont offer advice you seem to know nothing about... again installing windows on any partition is no problem at all.. you should at least be able to explain your concerns.
[03:37] <julius> Jack_Sparrow, just put "deb file:/media/cdrom feisty main" in sources.list for example
[03:37] <steveire> Hey. I'm trying to copy my ubuntu installation to another partition. 'cp -a / /media/disk' would work, but I don't want to include /home in the copy, as it is on a separate partition. Can you help me?
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: you're running gparted?
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, are you pressing "apply"?
[03:37] <aMMuNix> yes Frogzoo
[03:37] <julius> but apt-cdrom add should work if the dvd is well burned :p
[03:37] <Tr0nic> what is the best wireless USB adapter for ubuntu (completely compatible) the forums are contradictory on this
[03:37] <aMMuNix> yes Jimmey
[03:37] <Tr0nic> ?
[03:37] <Tr0nic> anyone
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, the error comes up when I press apply
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, what error?
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, it says /dev/sda1 is mounted
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: It IS a problem to install XP on other than the first partition. Feel fre to do whatever you want
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, and I keep unmounting, but it keeps mounting back
[03:37] <Tr0nic> feisty
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, ahh.
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, maybe you need to edit /etc/fstab
[03:37] <rb008> I'm trying to load fiesty on an external USB hard drive.  So far it has failed twice (both times shows MBR error 3 and then MBR error 1).  I'm installing it now for a third time, and I'm in the "Advanced Options" -- it says "Device for boot loader installation: (hd0)"  Should I change this?
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, what should I edit in it
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: did you umount the partition??
[03:37] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: would you like to elaborate what these problems might be?
[03:37] <Jimmey> Frogzoo, it's getting mounted as again right after
[03:37] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, right click > unmount? yes
[03:37] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, remove the reference to sda1
[03:37] <Frogzoo> aMMuNix: close gparted, unmount all mounted hdd partitions, rerun gparted
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: Sure, there are problems reinstalling grub, there were issues with the mbr...
[03:37] <aMMuNix> how do I do that Frogzoo?
[03:38] <markymarkus> could someone tell me how to change the encoding to Latin1?
[03:38] <vigneswari> which package is responsible for bringing the panel with log out, hibernate, switch user, shutdown icons
[03:39] <julius> markymarkus, where ?
[03:39] <tck> question, every time i boot my laptop i have to keep setting up my WPA2 network via network manager
[03:39] <tck> anyway around this?
[03:39] <brk3> hi just wondering does anyone here use a wallpaper switcher and if so what one Im having a hard time finding a good one!
[03:39] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: grub is usually installed into the mbr which is just the first 512k of your hd0/hda whatever... windows has nothing to do with grub by the way. it just chainloads to the windows bootsector which is the first 512k of the windows partition. and it doesnt at all matter where this partition is.
[03:39] <aMMuNix> Frogzoo, can you please explain how can I unmount all hdds?
[03:39] <Jimmey> brk3, wallpaper-tray works with some fiddling
[03:40] <ror> I can't get the nvidia module to load with the latest kernel
[03:40] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, I think sudo umount -a will do that
[03:40] <brk3> hey tck :)
[03:41] <tck> hullo brk3
[03:41] <brk3> tck: still hang about on #2600?
[03:41] <bmh> idefixx, I think Jack_Sparrow means that if you install windows after something linuxy then you have to reinstall grub because windows will overwrite the mbr without asking.
[03:41] <tck> nope ;)
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: How long have you been in this channel?
[03:41] <aldin> hi, why is my selfcompiled "initrd" so bigger than ubuntu default one:
[03:41] <tck> they hang out on silcnet 2600 server now
[03:41] <aldin> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  48M 2007-06-13 15:40 initrd.img-<IP_ADDRESS>
[03:41] <tck> check website ;)
[03:41] <wangking> Hi,I'm a new linux user.
[03:41] <aldin> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6.7M 2007-06-01 15:15 initrd.img-2.6.20-15-generic
[03:41] <brk3> tck: ya i know, just never bothered with it once they changed
[03:41] <carlosqueso> !welcome | wangking
[03:41] <ubotu> wangking: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> bmh: It goes beyond just overwriting the mbr and a simple reinstallation of the grub.
[03:42] <kitche> aldin: you probably added everything intot he initrd image that you could most likely ubuntu didn't
[03:42] <brk3> tck: you just not bother with it anymore either?
[03:42] <idefixx> bmh: no he keeps telling ppl windows 'has to be installed' to the first part first hd.. and he isnt talking about the mbr but about the windows data. i keep telling him to stop that :)
[03:42] <tck> brk3, chick takes up so much time
[03:42] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, everytime I open GParted, it opens a new browser window with the name "disk" with my HDD
[03:42] <brk3> tck: lol
[03:42] <tck> only getting back into linux the last week
[03:42] <aldin> kitche: yes, but how to reduce it? btw i used this command sudo mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-<IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:42] <tck> anyways, less talk, need to get back to study ;)
[03:42] <brk3> tck: right o
[03:43] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: I did not say it HAD to be the  first OS ... it just works better that way.
[03:43] <brk3> tck: just an idea for your question, network manager kind of sucks, try wifi-radar
[03:43] <aMMuNix> Jimmey, I'm going crazy, each unmount, mounts it back up
[03:43] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: why does it matter how long i've been here, i seem to know a lot more about the issue at hand, just proof me wrong.
[03:43] <Joelio> Is anyone else having an issue with X? My gnome's seriously broken after an apt-get upgrade!
[03:44] <tck> wifi-radar does not support g only b
[03:44] <jungo> hey, i can access my samba share from my windows laptop, but not vice versa, anyone know what the deal is?
[03:44] <tck> afaik
[03:44] <idefixx> Jack_Sparrow: there is NO reason for it beeing installed on the first partition other than speed.
[03:48] <brk3> tck: mine seems to suppport both, maybe you need to upgrade?
[03:48] <lt_> i followed the guide, but my soundblaster doesnt work..
[03:48] <Joelio> My X session keeps getting killed?!? It happens for every desktop manager.. I've apt-get upgraded today, what the hell's happened?
[03:48] <tck> i'll check it out :)
[03:48] <kitche> Joelio: no clue but check your Xorg.0.log it should tell you why it keeps crashing
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> idefixx: Fine.. I will get a link with people having problems and XP on other than the first os on the first partition.  And YES it does matter how long you have been working the channel as you see the problems that come up with things like that..
[03:48] <ubuntu-rocks> if i'm only using 1 hd, do i bother with LVM? i'm installing feisty on a new box
[03:48] <aMMuNix> anyone know why can't I unmount my hdd so I can resize it? (I'm in the liveCD right now, each unmount to the HD, mounts it back up)
[03:48] <kitche> Joelio: sicne withoutthat we can't help you much anyways since X can crash for many reasons
[03:48] <kitche> aMMuNix: how are you trying to umount it?

[03:48] <lt_> i chek out the alsa webpage, but the exactly name of my soundcard isnt in the list
[03:48] <Jimmey> aMMuNix, I think that the only way is to remove the lines containing "sda1" from /etc/fstab
[03:48] <Joelio> kitche: I'm on X now though, using fail-safe gnome.. so tailing the logs doesn't show the error.
[03:48] <carlosqueso> aMMuNix: you might have better luck with the gparted live cd: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php

[04:07] <idefixx> psst: no.. you cant convert the live-cd to an alternate cd. if that is what you're getting at.
[04:07] <yaser_> how do i execute a program in another tab
[04:07] <kdubois> easiest fix for that is to pop in a live CD, email the xorg.conf file that the live CD generates to yourself and replace the one on your HDD install

[04:19] <KomiaPoika> why is there no cups package in 7.04?
[04:20] <Stormx2> Hawkins: That's it querying DNS...

[04:23] <KomiaPoika> oh, thanks
[04:23] <preaction> johan_: the deb ones are easy: apt-get remove <package>, but again, the tarballs have to be uninstalled by removing the files that were added manually

[04:27] <idefixx> bullgard4: The netmask for the destination net; <IP_ADDRESS> for a host destination and <IP_ADDRESS> for the default route.
[04:27] <Stormx2> johan_: How have you installed, repos?
[04:27] <Almagesto> can someone help me please...
[04:27] <Stormx2> Almagesto: You screwed X up?
[04:28] <Almagesto> no it works and beryl too
[04:28] <Chops`> hi, i am having a problem with my Ubuntu install. I have installed it using the Live CD, now the system has restarted but hangs when it goes to the ubuntu splash screen with the progress bar only slightly filled
[04:28] <Stormx2> Almagesto: What's the issue then?
[04:28] <Chops`> booting in recovery mode shows
[04:28] <Chops`> Begin: Waiting for root file system... ...
[04:28] <Stormx2> Hmm
[04:28] <Almagesto> I've tried to install ATI drivers but something gone wrong
[04:28] <Stormx2> Looks like grub has got the wrong end of the stick.
[04:28] <Stormx2> Almagesto: What is wrong?
[04:28] <binvij> Chops: must be an issue with graphics card
[04:28] <Chops`> [ 25.08194]  FDC 0 is a post-1991 82077
[04:29] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR :)
[04:29] <Stormx2> binvij: Why do you say that? o.O
[04:29] <johan_> use commands like :sudo apt-get install ruby rdoc irb libyaml-ruby libzlib-ruby ri ruby1.8-dev , and download the tar file to install manually in /usr/local/ruby
[04:29] <ALLIGATOR> Sergo sexos :)
[04:29] <bullgard4> void^: man route does not explain the name 'Genmask'. It only uses ist without explaining where the name comes from. Did you read man route before?
[04:29] <Stormx2> Chops`: Chances are its grub has got the "kernel" line wrong.
[04:29] <Chops`> ok
[04:29] <Chops`> well
[04:29] <Sergo> alligator: aici coroce pt mat te avertizeza cu
[04:29] <idefixx> bullgard4: it does i posted it...
[04:29] <Chops`> during the intial install
[04:29] <Sergo> !language
[04:29] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:29] <Chops`> to get the livecd to boot
[04:29] <primski> what does that got to do with graphics card ? :o
[04:29] <johan_> by now i'm definetly confusing...
[04:29] <Almagesto> if i type fglrxinfo it tells me: The program 'fglrxinfo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[04:29] <Almagesto> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[04:29] <Hawkins> kitche, I'll reboot now and report if it helped.
[04:29] <Sergo> )
[04:29] <Chops`> i had to add acpi=off to the boot line
[04:30] <Almagesto> if I do that nothing works more
[04:30] <Chops`> but i cant work out how to add acpi=off to the bootline for a normal boot
[04:30] <Stormx2> bullgard4: Google: define:genmask
[04:30] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR: sa'ti zic inca un, feenode e mult mai user-friendly decit undernet
[04:30] <Sergo> :)
[04:30] <bullgard4> idefixx: I have read what you wrote. You simply repeated a passage from man route but you did not answer my question.
[04:30] <ALLIGATOR> Sergo da de ce nui @ ?
[04:31] <idefixx> bullgard4: wasnt your question what Genmask means?
[04:31] <Chops`> Stormx2 - i left it for ages and got: Check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls /dev
[04:31] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR: aici e chanserv ca X, pe dinsu poti sa'l scoti de pe canal ca pe x
[04:31] <Almagesto> If I try to enable ATI restricted drivers it tells me that the hardware doesn't need restricted drivers
[04:31] <bullgard4> Stormx2: Thank you very much for your advise. What do you think I havwe done before I posted here?
[04:31] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/37130540-......... does not exists. Dropping to shell!
[04:31] <ALLIGATOR> Sergo aista e cel mai mare canal ?
[04:31] <bullgard4> idefixx: No. I want to know where the name comes from.
[04:31] <void^> bullgard4: sorry, i assumed you were interested in the functionality and not linguistic history of the term :]
[04:31] <Stormx2> primski: The solution would be: Boot into the live cd, figure out which partition is your route partition (e.g. /dev/hda1). Mount it. Locate /boot/grub, edit menu.lst. Replace stuff like "UUID=z8f8g77hg9h7ghd9gh76dg" with /dev/hda1
[04:31] <crdlb> Almagesto, what ati card?
[04:32] <Stormx2> Chops`: yeah, that's what I thought it might be.
[04:32] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR: nu stiu daca e cel mai mare , acus vedem
[04:32] <wastrel> "feinsty"
[04:32] <Sergo> /status
[04:32] <Chops`> ah, how would i go about fixing this Stormx2?
[04:32] <Almagesto> radeon 9600
[04:32] <primski> stormx2: yea, probably, and then generate the uuid againg and start over, been there done that :P
[04:32] <Stormx2> Uhg.
[04:32] <Hawkins> kitche, Nope didn't do the trick, next I'll try that Open DNS thing Stormx2 suggested
[04:32] <crdlb> Almagesto, you realize that fglrx will work worse with beryl than the free driver right?
[04:33] <Stormx2> Who here is having issues with the boot. is it primski or Chops` ? o.O
[04:33] <Stormx2> I'm kinda tired.
[04:33] <Chops`> me
[04:33] <primski> not me
[04:33] <primski> :d
[04:33] <primski> gl mate ;)
[04:33] <idefixx> bullgard4: well since it can mean more than one thing.. i'd guess it means generic mask.. what else.
[04:33] <Stormx2> The advice i gave to primski was meant for Chops`
[04:33] <Stormx2> :)
[04:33] <Stormx2> Chops`, The solution would be: Boot into the live cd, figure out which partition is your route partition (e.g. /dev/hda1). Mount it. Locate /boot/grub, edit menu.lst. Replace stuff like "UUID=z8f8g77hg9h7ghd9gh76dg" with /dev/hda1
[04:33] <Chops`> can i point out that I am a windows user, this is my first linux install :S
[04:33] <Sergo> ALLIGATOR: nus precis da credca e cel mai mare
[04:33] <Stormx2> bullgard4: Well you're above 90% of the channel then.
[04:33] <Sergo> -)
[04:33] <hatter> how do i reinstall the libraries for opengl / mesa ?
[04:34] <Almagesto> no I just tried to install ATI drivers following the wiki, but Beryl was working no more
[04:34] <bullgard4> idefixx: Someone told me it means 'generate mask', and I could not confirm that.
[04:34] <Stormx2> Chops`: Well, boot into the livecd and open Gaim. Connect to IRC like you are now, and I'll walk you through it.
[04:34] <Chops`> i had the pc next to me
[04:34] <crdlb> Almagesto, so beryl is broken now because you installed the proprietary driver?
[04:34] <Chops`> :p
[04:34] <Stormx2> Ah okay
[04:34] <Chops`> have*
[04:34] <AtSquiggs> how can I get reolve this? libkadm55: Depends: libkrb53 (= 1.4.3-5) but 1.4.3-5ubuntu0.3 is to be installed
[04:34] <crdlb> hatter, what video card?
[04:34] <Stormx2> Chops`: Okay. Boot the live CD. Tell me when you're done.
[04:35] <Sergo> Alligator: bun dar eu ies
[04:35] <Almagesto> it was broken, now it works but I am not able to install proprietary drivers again
[04:35] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: Where are you installing libkadm55 from? the official repos?
[04:35] <hatter> crdlb, ati 9200., using the radeon driver,  ldd /usr/bin/glxinfo says libgl.so.1 => not found
[04:35] <Chops`> Stormx2 - i have to add acpi=off to the boot line to get the livecd to boot
[04:35] <Almagesto> I'd like to make beryl work with ati drivers
[04:35] <crdlb> hatter, sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgl1-mesa-glx
[04:35] <Chops`> using F6
[04:35] <AtSquiggs> stormx2 - I thought so.  I'm running server 6, does that matter?
[04:35] <Stormx2> Chops`: Okay, do that then.
[04:36] <dredhammer> hello has anyone else been experiencing slow burn times using gnomebaker in feisty?
[04:36] <crdlb> Almagesto, beryl with the proprietary driver is extremely difficult and rarely works right
[04:36] <dredhammer> i am creating a 500mb cd iso and it is listing the time as 60 minutes to complete it
[04:36] <hatter> crdlb, thanks so much , that fixed it :)
[04:37] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: Shouldn't matter. 6.04 or 6.10? Its very odd if you're using the official repos. Could you open your sources.list (in /etc/apt) and check that you don't have any unofficial repos? Comment em out if you do. sudo apt-get update and try again
[04:37] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ok livecd booted
[04:37] <idefixx> bullgard4: i honestly dont know.. usualy it helps to check the source for comments :)
[04:37] <kaktuskatta> Hi! I've just upgraded to Feisty from Edgy. I'm experiencing videoproblems after the upgrade. I
[04:37] <Stormx2> Chops`: Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[04:37] <Stormx2> Chops`: Run sudo fdisk -l
[04:37] <Chops`> will do
[04:37] <Almagesto> but why if I try to apply restricted drivers it tells me that current hw doesn't need restricted drivers?
[04:38] <Stormx2> Chops`: Then open firefox, go to www.pastebin.com, and paste the output in there. It will give you a link. Hand me back the link.
[04:38] <AtSquiggs> ok let me check
[04:38] <idefixx> bullgard4: maybe its just one of these things like 'inode' nobdy knows what it means. information node or index node...
[04:38] <kaktuskatta> I've managed to install the drivers, and the card is detected and all, but only as root! If I run fglrxinfo as normal user, I get the mesadrivers, but if i sudo the same command I get the proper info. Which files need changing of permission to fix this?
[04:38] <dredhammer> hello has anyone else been experiencing slow burn times using gnomebaker in feisty?
[04:38] <dredhammer> i am creating a 500mb cd iso and it is listing the time as 60 minutes to complete it
[04:38] <matt__> what is the easiest way to encode videos for the video ipod? first i'd just like to know how to, for example, take an .avi and encode it...
[04:39] <AtSquiggs> if this line is in, I get an error when I try to do an apt-get update, deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security main restricted
[04:39] <kitche> dredhammer: it's probbaly just using a slow speed
[04:39] <Stormx2> Chops: Oh, also. How many hard drives do you have, and if more than 1, which one is ubuntu installed on?
[04:39] <kaktuskatta> a hint would be much appreciated ;)
[04:39] <nathanj> can anyone help with a tv card?
[04:39] <hatter> ah, now i get error: couldnt get an rgb , double-buffered visual
[04:39] <bullgard4> idefixx: If the situation resembles that of 'inode' I will give in.
[04:39] <Almagesto> and if I type fglrxinfo: The program 'fglrxinfo' is currently not installed
[04:39] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: maybe...what's the problem
[04:39] <Stormx2> dredhammer: Ack, what is it called. DMA I think. You need that enabled :)
[04:39] <dredhammer> but its the iso image creation not a burn to the cd-r yet
[04:39] <Chops`> pastebin doesnt seem to be working, ill use another
[04:39] <Pici> !dma
[04:39] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. It makes hard disks & optical drives transfer data faster, and is almost always enabled in Ubuntu 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[04:39] <Stormx2> dredhammer: i recommend you use k3b for burning. it's a much better burner.
[04:40] <nathanj> kaktuskatta it comes up as a bttv0 under dvb0 in dmesg but tvtime/mythtv doesn't find it :s
[04:44] <Stormx2> Chops`: I tend to use pastebin.ca, even though I'm from the UK.
[04:44] <Stormx2> =)
[04:44] <matt__> Pici: is dma usually turned on it feisty? i was wondering this the other day, if how can i check
[04:44] <dredhammer> shouldn't DMA be on by default in Feisty?
[04:44] <Stormx2> I just did a clean feisty install
[04:44] <Stormx2> Let me check
[04:44] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: And the card is listed when you run lspci?
[04:44] <matt__> Stormx2: how can you check..
[04:44] <AtSquiggs> storm2 - http://pastebin.ca/564269
[04:44] <Pici> matt__: sudo hdparm /dev/devicename | grep dma
[04:44] <nathanj> kaktuskatta yup as a bt878 card
[04:44] <Stormx2> matt__: sudo hdparm /dev/hdc

[04:44] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:44] <Hawkins> Stormx2, Million thanks. Using Open DNS solved my annoying browsing lag =)
[04:44] <Stormx2> Its enabled by default for both my CD drives.
[04:44] <Stormx2> Hawkins: ooh good :)

[04:44] <tbk> rap
[04:44] <tbk> where to get codec
[04:44] <Pici> tbk: rap?
[04:44] <Stormx2> lol
[04:44] <Stormx2> xD
[04:44] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: I assume that youve checked the input settings in tvtime...?
[04:44] <Stormx2> That was pretty funny tbk
[04:44] <matt__> Pici: I did sudo hdparm /dev/dvdrw |grep dma, it told me HDIO_GETGEO failed:Inappropriate ioctl for device
[04:44] <nathanj> kaktuskatta no inputs come up ;s
[04:44] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: They're all official. Run a sudo apt-get update and try again
[04:44] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: if it still doesn't work, google the error.
[04:44] <kaktuskatta> Mine works fine with tvtime, I only had problems with sound
[04:44] <kaktuskatta> Hmm...who's the manufacturer of the card?
[04:44] <nathanj> kaktuskatta its a dvico dvb-t lite
[04:44] <Pici> matt__: Take a look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[04:44] <matt__> Stormx2: i ran sudo hdparm /dev/dvdrw, this is what i got.
[04:44] <matt__> /dev/dvdrw: IO_support   =  0 (default 16-bit) readonly     =  0 (off) readahead    = 256 (on) HDIO_GETGEO failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[04:44] <Stormx2> Chops`: Okay, looks like a pretty generic install, good.
[04:44] <nathanj> kaktuskatta are options suspose to come under "video source"
[04:44] <nathanj> ?
[04:44] <Chops`> :D
[04:44] <AtSquiggs> this is what I'm getting, http://pastebin.ca/564279
[04:44] <Stormx2> matt__: I'm not sure DMA is used on DVDs? No idea. I get that error too.
[04:44] <Hawkins> How do I get better resolution than 1024x768 which is quite ugly. Editing xorg.conf does not help nor does using dpkg-reconfigure. I've got Radeon X850XT and ATI drivers working.
[04:45] <M_Fatih> how can i start non-graphical text based installer in ubuntu live cd?
[04:45] <AtSquiggs> it's like it's trying to bzip2 when it should be using gzip :)
[04:45] <Stormx2> Chops`: Go back to that terminal, or open a new one. Run this:
[04:45] <matt__> Stormx2: umm..i think so, i ran into that when trying to setup dvd decrypter in wine,it works, but slow, it asked me to turn on dma in the tutorial
[04:45] <kaktuskatta> nathanj: well, to be honest I'm not sure
[04:45] <matt__> Stormx2: http://mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu/dvdshrink/

[04:46] <Stormx2> matt__: dvd decrypter in wine? o.O You know you can do that with css?
[04:46] <wastrel> M_Fatih:  open a terminal and type "nano"

[04:47] <M_Fatih> i want to start installer at live cd's boot grub menu
[04:47] <M_Fatih> text installer
[04:47] <wastrel> M_Fatih:  sorry i thought i read text editor :]
[04:47] <M_Fatih> :)
[04:47] <dfarje> hey guys
[04:47] <M_Fatih> haha, np
[04:47] <wastrel> there's no text installer on the livecd.  you need the "alternate cd"
[04:47] <Stormx2> M_Fatih: The live cd doesn't have a grub menu...
[04:47] <dfarje> I have trouble installing java
[04:47] <sirbooboo> Stormx2: that cd /var/log && ls-l did not work. I found a xorg.log is that it?
[04:47] <matt__> Stormx2: oh, i know what you are talking about...but this rips the disk to your hard disk unencrypted. can you do that with css? (serious question)
[04:47] <assobachant> bon tous a pour vous dire que je suis retourn chez bill        ou pas bien ; mais que je reviens bientt.........

[04:47] <assobachant> @llez ce soir je vous lit
[04:47] <Stormx2> sirbooboo: You need a space, "ls -l", but it doesn't matter. Yeah, nano xorg.log

[04:48] <assobachant> yo a pas vu dsl m'enfin bonsoir quand mme @++
[04:48] <Stormx2> matt__: You need libdvdcss2 for READING dvds. You can use k9copy to copy them to your hard drive (unencrypted or otherwise)
[04:48] <nathanj> kaktuskatta it looks like its trying to open /dev/video0 not /dev/dvb0 :D
[04:48] <BlueDevil> Frogzoo: please help
[04:48] <sirbooboo> stormX2: When I nano xorg.log there is a bunch of stuff in there; at the end it says fatal server error: no severs found.
[04:48] <matt__> Stormx2: i have libdvdcss2, but k9, does it work?
[04:49] <Stormx2> sirbooboo; look for the first line with (EE) near the start
[04:49] <kaktuskatta> Anyone here with experience on the setup of ATi cards  under linux?

[04:49] <Chops`> Stormx2 - sorry didnt know if you saw or not, i have done that mounting and stuff
[04:49] <matt__> Stormx2: lol, ok
[04:49] <Stormx2> Chops`: Goodo.

[04:50] <ubotu> Stormx2: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[04:50] <Stormx2> cables: yeah yeah I know
[04:50] <sean_> whats the command to get the !ubotu bot to talk to me about getting my windows hd's recognized?

[04:51] <Stormx2> sean_: /msg ubotu whatever
[04:51] <kaktuskatta> hmm....I think there is a command that can "route" the signal to the video0 port, but I'm not sure which ....:-| Maybe you can change some conf. file for your TV-app aswell?

[04:51] <Chops`> Stormx2 - do you mean menu.lst?
[04:51] <Stormx2> Chops`: Yeah I do, heh.
[04:51] <kaktuskatta> Stormx2: I've managed to install the drivers, but I'm only getting the correct info from fglrxinfo when I run it as root!
[04:51] <Stormx2> Chops`: I haven't had much sleep :)
[04:51] <CheshireViking> Stormx2, it was for sean_ , but i got the wrong one & missed the nick off by mistake
[04:52] <Stormx2> haha
[04:52] <AtSquiggs> stormx2 - fixed it!  I removed the files from /var/lib/apt/lists/partial and then apt-get update worked.  thanks for your help
[04:52] <Stormx2> ah okay, sorry.
[04:52] <Chops`> Stormx2 - lol, ok, that file is open now
[04:52] <Stormx2> AtSquiggs: Ooh good.
[04:52] <sirbooboo> stormx2: can I access that file from XP?
[04:52] <kaktuskatta> Stormx2: Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be anyone else here with the same problem.... :-|
[04:52] <Stormx2> Chops`: Locate a line containing "UUID=", and then paste me that specific line. You don't need to use a pastebin to paste 1 line.
[04:53] <BlueDevil> where can i get a kernel package with PAE enabled?
[04:53] <Stormx2> sirbooboo: You'll need to install additional drivers to read ext3 from windows, but it isn't hard.
[04:53] <AtSquiggs> have a good day guys!
[04:54] <sirbooboo> stormx2: can you tell me how?
[04:54] <yaser_> hello, how do i execute a program in another terminal?
[04:54] <Chops`> Stormx2 - /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=UUID=37a30540-299c-4220-bcf1-fe4eed410239 ro quiet splash
[04:54] <Stormx2> sirbooboo: Sure. Let me quickly check which driver I use
[04:54] <Stormx2> yaser_: Open another terminal? Open a new tab?
[04:54] <MitchM> !mondo
[04:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mondo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:55] <yaser_> Stormx2, from a script, execute a program in another tab
[04:55] <Stormx2> Chops`: I want you to do a find and replace on the file. There is an option in the menus "replace". Replace: "UUID=37a30540-299c-4220-bcf1-fe4eed410239" with "/dev/hda1" throughout the entire file.
[04:55] <matt__> Stormx2: thanks for the suggestion, k9 looks great, however, i do have a question, it has an option for "mpg4). isn't that what an ipod uses for video? i was going to try it, however, it saves it as an .avi. any knowledge there?
[04:55] <Stormx2> yaser_: You can fork it with a ampersand (&) at the end.
[04:55] <Chops`> ok Stormx2 - and then reboot and it works? :D
[04:55] <CheshireViking> sirbooboo, try http://www.fs-driver.org/ - thats what i use to access my ubuntu partitions from windows
[04:56] <DJ-_-> how do i set a visible_hostname permanently via CLI
[04:56] <yaser_> Stormx2, i want it in another tab
[04:56] <Stormx2> matt__: None. I don't actually have a DVD drive. Does k9 allow you to edit a gstreamer pipeline. if so, you could figure that out.
[04:56] <Stormx2> yaser_: Uhg.
[04:56] <void^> matt__: mpeg4 means any divx-like codec, not mp4
[04:56] <DJ-_-> not squid or stuff, is there a way to add a hostname permanently
[04:56] <Stormx2> yaser_: I'm not sure that's possible. Check man gnome-terminal
[04:56] <matt__> Stormx2: um..ill look into that, so i guess i'll need to find the exact specifications for ipod video...
[05:00] <yaser_> Stormx2, ok
[05:00] <matt__> void^: ok ok, so what do i need to do? do you know how i could encode it for the ipod?
[05:00] <Stormx2> matt__: Do some googling, and also check ubuntuforums.org
[05:00] <matt__> Stormx2: i don't know what i haven't thought to look there...
[05:00] <ubuntu> people my xconf crashed i'm using the live cd how can i restore my linux?
[05:00] <_Ahti> could someone tell me if Mplayer (and the mozilla plugins) has a cache anywhere on my computer where a file is stored when i view a movie file online?
[05:00] <void^> matt__: i know nothing about ipods. i guess some sort of h264/avc+aac combination in an mp4 container.
[05:00] <Stormx2> ubuntu: Your xorg "crashed"? Just reboot.
[05:00] <Stormx2> ubuntu: or do you mean you've editted the config and now it doesn't work?
[05:00] <ubuntu> Stormx2: i tried many times i get a blue screen
[05:00] <matt__> void^: i think that sounds right.
[05:00] <Stormx2> Guys, I'm only staying here until Chops` sorts out his problem.
[05:00] <DJ-_-> ok, anyone know how to properly configure torrentflux?
[05:00] <_Ahti> !bluescreen
[05:00] <axisys> how do I limit number of ssh login attempt for a user?
[05:00] <Stormx2> ubuntu: With what error?
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bluescreen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <novato_br> ubuntu, saw novato_br ?
[05:00] <kitche> ubuntu: jsut means you need to configure X or use the alternate cd
[05:00] <_Ahti> !blue
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about blue - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <Chops`> Stormx2: ok replaced all that
[05:00] <Stormx2> Chops`: Sure you did it absolutely correct and replaced all occurances? :)
[05:00] <novato_br> what's the bot of this channel ?
[05:00] <Chops`> it replaced 3 occurances
[05:00] <DJ-_-> !torrentflux
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about torrentflux - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <kitche> novato_br: ubotu
[05:00] <CheshireViking> !bot | novato_br
[05:00] <ubotu> novato_br: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[05:00] <novato_br> ubotu, saw novato_br ?
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about saw novato_br ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <ubuntu> Stormx2: i tried to configure nvidia drivers ind linux crashed
[05:00] <novato_br> is it smart ?
[05:00] <kitche> !fishing | novato_br
[05:00] <ubotu> novato_br: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[05:00] <Stormx2> Chops`: Hmm. I've just realised a potential problem, but chances are it won't happen. Save the file, and reboot.
[05:00] <Chops`> right :|
[05:00] <Chops`> lol
[05:00] <novato_br> the bot on br-channel is very idiot
[05:00] <Stormx2> novato_br: That's unpossible!
[05:00] <ubuntu> Stormx2: help please
[05:01] <Stormx2> ubuntu: It will have made a backup. cd /etc/X11
[05:01] <Stormx2> ubuntu: Then, ls -l | grep xorg
[05:01] <Stormx2> ubuntu: Pastebin the output for me.
[05:01] <Chops`> Stormx2 - same problem =(
[05:01] <Stormx2> Chops`: bah!
[05:02] <Chops`> Stormx2 - could i try adding acpi=off to that kernel line?
[05:02] <hgh> Hi, in this howto http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51611 it says I should do this to create a user "sudo useradd userftp -p your_password -d /home/FTP-shared -s /bin/false". Is "your_password" supposed to be *my* password or the password of the person that will be logging in to my ftp server?
[05:02] <ubuntu> Stormx2:  how to restore or to rolldown the nvidia drivers
[05:02] <akahige> doing a conversion from Ubuntu to Xubuntu (by reinstalling). Got an error during the install. Failed to install libicu36 (and presumably other things that are associated with it, but I didn't see errors). Should I be concerned about this?
[05:02] <Stormx2> ubuntu: I just gave you instructions on that. Follow them.
[05:02] <Stormx2> Chops`: Yeah, possible.
[05:03] <Chops`> and restore the original file that we edited?
[05:03] <Hawkins> How to get resolutions over 1024x768? Editing xorg.conf or using dpkg-reconfigure does not help. I've got Radeon X850XT with ATI drivers working.
[05:03] <Chops`> (i made a backup)
[05:03] <idefixx> hgh: its the pw of the person login' in. not your pw. sudo will ask for you pw when you execute the command.
[05:03] <hgh> idefixx: Thank you
[05:03] <novato_br> he should be little bit smart
[05:03] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: have you tried aticonfig?
[05:04] <kitche> novato_br: it's just an info bot not a bot to play around with
[05:04] <sirbooboo> StormX2: OK, I installed that EX2 reader. I can access that folder and file now. Is there a way I can send you the log to inspect?
[05:04] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, no I haven't.
[05:04] <av16ar> hello everybody, I would like to take a screenshot on which the mouse cursor is visible. How can I do it?
[05:04] <idefixx> novato_br: i dont see how !seen makes a bot smart what do you think qualifies as 'smart'??
[05:04] <Stormx2> Chops`: You should remove the new one (sudo rm menu.lst) then copy the backup (sudo cp backupfilename menu.lst)
[05:05] <novato_br> good answers, idefixx
[05:05] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ok ill give it a go
[05:05] <ubuntu> Stormx2: can you explain like to a noob
[05:05] <Stormx2> Chops`: You can edit the file to add the acpi=off line
[05:05] <Chops`> ok
[05:06] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: that tool might do the trick. If you did a correct installation of the files, it's supposed to work
[05:06] <Stormx2> Chops`: If you need help adding it, pastebin the file.
[05:06] <Pegazz> Hello all, I'm trying to install ubuntu on a extern HD, but I have some problems with the partition editor etc...
[05:06] <idefixx> novato_br: well its answers are not the bots fault... maybe you should talk to the bots maintainer and/or contributers :)
[05:06] <novato_br> on br-channel, i can ask bot for people and it answered if it saw them on channel before
[05:06] <Stormx2> Chops`: Helpful guide here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[05:07] <Stormx2> ubuntu: Once X crashes, you can get back to a command line, yeah?
[05:07] <novato_br> yep, idefixx
[05:07] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, I'm quite newbie using linux so could you give me more information how to use it ?
[05:07] <sirbooboo> StormX2: OK, I installed that EX2 reader. I can access that folder and file now. I opened the log with notepad and do not see a first line with EE. Is there a way I can send you the log to inspect?
[05:07] <nuked_omen> how do i force kill a program if everything freezes
[05:08] <idefixx> novato_br: have you ever run a bot. Not having a seen command on this absurd huge channel is pretty smart imo.
[05:08] <Stormx2> sirbooboo: pastebin it.

[05:08] <jmail> I am running on Dell 1505, Feisty 7.04.  Until yesterday, I was able to connect wirelessly, altho had trouble consistently accessing network drives.  Today, I cannot connect wirelessly.  I've tried re-ndiswrapper install, and troubleshot dhcp (which FAILs)
[05:08] <novato_br> ok
[05:08] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Use gnome-system-monitor
[05:08] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: If you prefer to use command line, try "killall appname" (e.g. gedit)
[05:08] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: what if i can't start it
[05:08] <kam1> sers guys i got a wine question-> if installed wine wit this command sudo apt-get install wine ... is it then compiled?
[05:09] <Stormx2> kam1: In a way, yeah
[05:09] <nuked_omen> ok
[05:09] <Stormx2> kam1: When you install a program, it get's the compiled binary, yeah.
[05:09] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: you'll se the syntax if you run aticonfig in terminal
[05:09] <Stormx2> kam1: But it doesn't compile it. That's already done.
[05:09] <nuked_omen> it is precompiled
[05:10] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Are you only at a command line?
[05:10] <kam1> oh u mean compiling is done everytime i install sth.?
[05:10] <Stormx2> kam1: No.
[05:10] <sirbooboo> stormx2: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25406/
[05:10] <Stormx2> kam1: The people who put the packages in the repos compile them. You simply download the compiled version.
[05:10] <letronje> hi, is it possible to restart networking services using the network manager ?
[05:10] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: no.. GUI, but sometimes it freezes so bad that i can't do anything with the mouse.. i was thinking of pressing some keys to kill the program like you do with windows (sometimes)
[05:10] <Chops`> Stormx2 - that worked :D
[05:10] <Chops`> well
[05:10] <idefixx> kam1: if you want to compile stuff everytime you install something you'll have to get gentoo. ubuntu works different.
[05:11] <letronje> i have to reset my cable modem when i restart into another OS
[05:11] <Chops`> the bar has gone further this time
[05:11] <shamael002> how do i install java onto my ubuntu version of linux
[05:11] <kam1> oh
[05:11] <kam1> -.- k thats all i wanted to know good that it is already compiled
[05:11] <kam1> thanks a lot
[05:11] <Chops`> Stormx2 - ok thats booted :D thank you so much for your help
[05:11] <Stormx2> Chops`: Fully? Great.
[05:11] <Stormx2> Chops`: Sorry I took you on a wild goose chase a bit.
[05:11] <Chops`> well logining in now
[05:11] <Chops`> hey its fine
[05:12] <void^> !java | shamael002
[05:12] <ubotu> shamael002: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:12] <Chops`> i get the impression linux is like that Stormx2 ;)
[05:12] <Stormx2> Chops`: That common is a lot less common than the one I was initially trying to "fix"
[05:12] <Stormx2> Chops`: Ah its fine when everything works :)
[05:12] <letronje> hi, i have to restart my cable modem each time i switch between OSs. so when i reboot to ubuntu from windoze, i have to restart networking services after resetting my cable modem. whats the fastest way to do it thru GUI ?
[05:12] <eyemean> hi, can any1 tell me how to add a picture to the bottom part of the cube (ubuntu feisty compiz)
[05:12] <nuked_omen> i installed java from the default repositories and it sucks bad
[05:12] <eyemean> pls
[05:12] <Chops`> Stormx2 - as is everything :D
[05:12] <nuked_omen> azurues often crashes.. and java in firefox does to
[05:12] <shamael002> thank you ubotu is that all i have todo
[05:12] <nuked_omen> o
[05:13] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: You can go to a command line with Ctrl + Alt + F1. From there, login. Then "killall appname"
[05:13] <nuked_omen> shamael002: ubotu is a cybrog
[05:13] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: If that won't work, you can kill it with kill -9 pid
[05:13] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: But I wouldn't recommend it...
[05:13] <letronje> when i restart to windoze from ubuntu, all i have to do is reset the cable modem, window auto restarts n/w services
[05:13] <Stormx2> (I *think* that's the right signal)
[05:13] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: why not
[05:13] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: It doesn't allow the app to finish properly. Temporary lock files, etc, won't get deleted.
[05:14] <nuked_omen> that's good to know
[05:14] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, Ah, it was terminal command. I tried to look it from menus :) . I tried this 'aticonfig --resolution=0,1280x960' but got following 'error at set screen resolution : screen0 does not exist' and 'aticonfig: parsing the command-line failed.'
[05:14] <av16ar> nobody knows how to take a screenshot with the mouse cursor?
[05:15] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Basically it *can* screw things up, because the app is just completely killed with no warnings. A normal kill be the same as hitting the X button, etc.
[05:15] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: what's the output of fglrxinfo
[05:15] <kaktuskatta> ?
[05:15] <VanDaMe> anybody got success installing apf on ubuntu ?
[05:15] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: normal kill = killall, right?
[05:15] <not_a_k> i installed meta tracker. and set IndexThunderbirdEmails=true in ~/.Tracker/tracker.cfg.. yet my thunderbird emails aren't being indexed. am i missing some step here?
[05:16] <Stormx2> nuked_omen
[05:16] <Stormx2> Ack!
[05:16] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Yeah.
[05:16] <crdlb> Stormx2, not exactly
[05:16] <Stormx2> I really must go sleep now...
[05:16] <noelferreira> how can i have sound in both my system and firefox applications?
[05:16] <nuked_omen> good night
[05:16] <VanDaMe> anybody got success installing apf on ubuntu ?
[05:16] <Stormx2> noelferreira: Flash hogs sound :(
[05:16] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, 1st line: aticonfig: parsing the command-line failed. 2nd line: OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. 3rd line: OpenGL renderer string: RADEON X850 XT Platinum Edition 4th line: OpenGL version string: 2.0.6334 (8.34.8)
[05:16] <not_a_k> in fact i see the following in my tracker log: Thunderbird email indexing enabled :        no
[05:17] <noelferreira> Stormx2: there's no way to solve it?
[05:17] <Stormx2> noelferreira; I think there is... I'm not sure. Just make sure you're using ALSA (System > preferences > sounds).
[05:17] <crdlb> noelferreira, are you using flash 9?
[05:17] <Stormx2> I think flash9 works fine...
[05:17] <Stormx2> Yeah
[05:17] <noelferreira> yes crdlb
[05:17] <mark__> everytime i try to copy a disc brasero tells me "Session error : the drive can't be locked (Extracting audio from CD)". what could i do to copy cds.
[05:17] <Stormx2> I can't be sure but I'm pretty sure flash9 has dmix support?
[05:18] <nuked_omen> sound mixing in linux still need some overhauling
[05:18] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: Its come a long way
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins:  Here's mine: display: :0.0  screen: 0
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> OpenGL renderer string: ATI MOBILITY RADEON X600
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> OpenGL version string: 2.0.6473 (8.37.6)
[05:18] <Stormx2> nuked_omen: i don't have any issues with it anymore. I just use ALSA
[05:18] <jmail> I am running on Dell 1505, Feisty 7.04.  Until yesterday, I was able to connect wirelessly, altho had trouble consistently accessing network drives.  Today, I cannot connect wirelessly.  I've tried re-ndiswrapper install, and troubleshot dhcp (which FAILs)

[05:18] <Stormx2> Ah
[05:18] <Stormx2> That's it. I'm typoing lots.
[05:18] <Stormx2> This is not good.
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> It says display and screen 0, so I were wondering if you hade the same
[05:18] <Stormx2> Goodbye all!
[05:18] <kaktuskatta> Stormx2: Sorry
[05:19] <jmail> How do I get Ubuntu to detect wireless again
[05:19] <calc> nuked_omen: would be cool to get sound mixer support like what vista has, eg where you can change volume on a per app basis, etc
[05:19] <nuked_omen> Stormx2: bye
[05:19] <sercik> Hi| i have a little problem with nvidia-glx-new
[05:19] <sercik> when i install it x gives an error about a mismatch version
[05:19] <DJ-_-> ok i need some help with some dns, i know its off topic, but does anyone know whether cname and mx records can coexist with each other
[05:19] <nuked_omen> calc: exactly
[05:19] <sercik> i need to use the old version nvidia-glx
[05:19] <sercik> someone can help me to install nvidia-glx-new?
[05:20] <kitche> DJ-_-: yes sicne they both do different things
[05:20] <DJ-_-> kitche: so basically i can point a cname to another website, and at the same time have the same host to point mx elsewhere?
[05:21] <kitche> DJ-_-: correct sicne CNAME is an alias while a MX is for mail servers to tell people where mail servers are located
[05:21] <DJ-_-> kitche: thx, i got confused cuz the hosts lists that cname records can not be used with other types of records
[05:21] <sirbooboo> stormx2: is it hopeless?
[05:21] <kitche> DJ-_-: I have CNAME for Mail and a MX pointing to mail.kitchetech.com
[05:22] <akahige> are there rdesktop guis that are not gnome dependent? (I'm on Xubuntu)
[05:22] <DJ-_-> kicthe: so do you have another cname pointing to your site?
[05:22] <rinky3> anyone know how to make a command line session "forget" the recently cached sudo password?
[05:22] <kitche> DJ-_-: www is one think mail www is the only two that I have
[05:22] <Cleri1> i need help setting up a logitech wireless keyboard and mouse on ubuntu
[05:22] <ror> how are you invoking sudo? it shouldn't cache it
[05:22] <sercik> rinky3: i think that if you open a different terminal you resolve the problem
[05:23] <DJ-_-> kitche: wait i will try and let you know
[05:23] <predaeus> rinky3, see "man sudo" you can configure how long it takes to forget it. no idea how to forget it immediately by command though.
[05:23] <rinky3> predaeus cheers
[05:23] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, Seems to be almost the same. How did you get better resolution ?
[05:24] <dclam> are ubuntu ISOs ever re-spun?  I'm on a slower connection and don't want to have to download all the updates since Feisty's release =|
[05:24] <ror> oh, you mean you want it to prompt every time? yeah man sudo covers that, thought you meant you were getting the sudo password appearing in the shell history file
[05:24] <Q_Continuum> I have an issue with the 'Desktop Effects' provided by feisty
[05:24] <predaeus> dclam, not sure, probably check the dates on the ftp directories
[05:24] <sirbooboo> Stormx2: are you still here?
[05:24] <shamael002> ok i when to this link that was posted by:ubotu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java  to download java for ubuntu but i have ubuntu 7.4 i dont see the download for java for using the lastest version of ubuntu
[05:24] <DJ-_-> kitche: > pm
[05:25] <LEMONed> Hey, how would I go about letting applications have read/write access to my Windows partitions without having to type "sudo appname" everytime?
[05:25] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: Hehe....preferences-> screen resolution :)
[05:25] <mrobbert> dclam: They're "respun" every 6 months.  Note that if a domain name has a CNAME record associated with it, then it can not have any other record types. In addition, CNAME records should not point to domain names which themselves have associated CNAME records, so CNAME only provides one layer of indirection. Defined in RFC 1035.
[05:26] <dclam> predaeus, thanks, good idea.  unfortunately, it appears only Dapper (i.e. LTS) is updated
[05:27] <mrobbert> LEMONed: There are mount options that allow you to mount the partition with whichever UID or GID that you want.
[05:27] <Hawkins> kaktuskatta, What and earth is going on. I've got only: 1024x768 , 960x720 , 864x648 , 800x600 and 640x480 =(
[05:27] <Beamoo> is emacs a c++ compiler?
[05:27] <ror> Hawkins, that's what's listed in your xorg.conf
[05:27] <calc> Beamoo: er no
[05:27] <tritium> Beamoo: no
[05:27] <predaeus> dclam, I don't know but it is likely they update critical things from time to time. Keep asking and scan the forums for info.
[05:27] <calc> Beamoo: it can do nearly everything but that ;)
[05:27] <ror> it can be tho I suspect, emacs can be everything
[05:27] <Beamoo> oh lol ok
[05:27] <magnetron> Beamoo: no, it's a text editor
[05:27] <Beamoo> allright
[05:27] <bmh> DJ-_-, That's if you have a CNAME for the whole domain, i.e. www.example.com can be a CNAME and you can still have MX records for example.com, but if example.com itself is a cname, it can't have MX records (or anything else)
[05:27] <ror> oh, it can't compile c? how boring of it
[05:27] <Beamoo> what should i use for a c++ compiler?
[05:27] <ror> gcc
[05:28] <kaktuskatta> Hawkins: Hm.....Odd.
[05:28] <calc> Beamoo: g++
[05:28] <DJ-_-> bmh: gotcha
[05:28] <Hawkins> ror, I've got only Depth 24 and Mode 1280x960

[05:29] <marco_linux> I need some help with VIA 8235 soundcard. I am using ubuntu feisty. I am not able to record any sound or use Skype. Anyone can help me?
[05:29] <Beamoo> Ie installed g++ but dont understand how it works :S
[05:29] <DJ-_-> bmh: so basically if they try to goto example.com....they get a cannot display page
[05:29] <Beamoo> do i write a code in lets say gedit then compile it with the command in the terminal?
[05:29] <shamael002> what is? Multiverse repository
[05:29] <predaeus> Beamoo, see "man g++" or "man gcc"
[05:30] <bmh> DJ-_-, You can still set an A record for the domain to point to the same IP as the host you want, instead of using a CNAME
[05:30] <Frogzoo> grrr.. emacs in a gnome-terminal doesn't recognise ansi escape, instead I get ';5D' hitting ctrl left arrow
[05:30] <predaeus> Beamoo, find some C++ or C turorials on the web, they will tell you the details

[05:30] <NeXtDaY> what is mounting? what is it useful for?
[05:31] <DJ-_-> bmh: unless I am on static ip that is?
[05:31] <predaeus> NeXtDaY, see "man mount"
[05:31] <calc> Beamoo: typically people use make and/or automake and the autotools to do building for projects
[05:31] <shamael002> and i need java installed on here so i can work on my website on yahoo geocities
[05:31] <NeXtDaY> ok
[05:31] <Vaske_Car> how do I start computer back from Suspend mode?
[05:31] <Beamoo> calc: that how you compile ?  gcc foo.cpp -o foo?
[05:31] <Frogzoo> Vaske_Car: hit a key

[05:31] <calc> Beamoo: for a simple one file program, yes
[05:31] <ror> shamael002, you need java vm and plugin for your browser then
[05:31] <Vaske_Car> Frogzoo, I did and nothing heppend
[05:31] <Vaske_Car> I had to restart
[05:31] <Beamoo> calc: ok and change foo to the filename?
[05:32] <calc> Beamoo: yes
[05:32] <tritium> Beamoo: if you're going to be compiling software, etc., you probably want to install build-essential
[05:32] <ruks> hello
[05:32] <shamael002> and what is java vm and plugin
[05:32] <calc> Beamoo: -o foo outputs a binary that is named foo
[05:32] <DJ-_-> bmh: ok, is there anyway I can run a DNS server on my pc and point to that using the domain name host
[05:32] <Beamoo> calc: sweet and i can write the code in lets say getid?
[05:32] <DJ-_-> bmh: so basically i can confgiure more stuff like mx and stuff on my dns server
[05:32] <sean_> my software index is broken
[05:32] <ruks> i have a question if anyone could help me in pm or on here
[05:32] <sean_> how do i fix it?

[05:33] <Trae> hmm
[05:33] <sean_> anyone know how to get rid of the "software index is broken" error?
[05:33] <calc> Beamoo: yea you can write the code in pretty much whatever you want, there are some IDE for linux like KDevelop

[05:33] <calc> Beamoo: and Eclipse
[05:34] <idefixx> DJ-_-: no, you need a static ip to run a dns server on it. if you have a static ip you can make the dns1 and dns2 point to the same ip.
[05:34] <Trae> Anyone know how to get an ACX 111 TI wireless card pci card going with Ubuntu?
[05:34] <needs_help> just installed ubuntu dual boot with xp,but cant access my wireless in ubuntu
[05:34] <predaeus> !wlan | ruks
[05:34] <chatter> hi
[05:34] <Beamoo> calc: just to brake it down, Il write the code in Kdevelop then compile it with the command  gcc foo.cpp -o foo. But what does build-essentail do?
[05:34] <DJ-_-> idefixx: ok, so i am better off with CNAME, well i have to configure mail servers after which i will make a CNAME record, thx
[05:34] <bmh> DJ-_-, You could, because NS records take a host name instead of an IP address, but it's not a good idea to have a domain's nameserver on a dynamic IP address, and it wouldn't help with the original problem.
[05:35] <ruks> didnt catch that?
[05:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wlan - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:35] <DJ-_-> bmh: thx man
[05:35] <calc> Beamoo: if you already know how to program most of that will transfer over to linux, the main new things you will need to learn for larger projects is how to create Makefile's, automake, autoconf are good things to look at
[05:35] <chatter> i will have to install my machine. can i save all the list of installed packages from dpkg or apt and read it after reinstallation to get the same config up and running again?
[05:35] <calc> Beamoo: build-essential is a package that pulls in the packages you need to build most stuff on ubuntu

[05:35] <ubotu> ruks: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:35] <idefixx> DJ-_-: the proper way is make an A entry for yourdomain.foo CNAME for www.yourdomain.foo and add a MX to yourdomain.foo and so on.
[05:35] <calc> Beamoo: KDevelop may be able to do the building for you as well, i haven't used it myself though
[05:35] <Beamoo> calc: Im kind of a programming noob
[05:36] <frojnd> does anyone know where I could get some skydome images for beryl?
[05:36] <idefixx> DJ-_-: if you want two mailservers you can create another A entry for ie. mail.yourdomain.foo and add a differnt MX.
[05:36] <DJ-_-> idefixx: what if I wanted the A entry to point to a website in freehostia
[05:36] <calc> Beamoo: actually i'm pretty sure kdevelop will build stuff for you, i just don't know what the commands are in the menu
[05:36] <Frogzoo> chatter: dpkg --get-selections
[05:36] <ror> build-essential is a collection (pseudo package) of packages that are useful;
[05:36] <Beamoo> calc:  ok :)

[05:36] <ror> I'd recommend vim but everyone has their preferences
[05:37] <ruks> but once downloaded i dont know how to execute it
[05:37] <sean_> anyone know how to fix the "software index is broken" error?
[05:37] <idefixx> DJ-_-: if i understand you correct.. that has nothing to do with the dns anymore. Just point it to the IP of freehostia and they'll have to create a VHOST in the webserver config.
[05:37] <ror> sean_, I don't know, but it sounds like something to do with apt-cache
[05:37] <DJ-_-> idefixx: can i talk to you in pm?
[05:37] <Johto> hello everyone, greetings from finland :)
[05:37] <sean_> ror: it wont let me do anything, i cant install anything or update anything
[05:38] <idefixx> DJ-_-: so that the webserver knows which webpage to serve if someone rquests a webpage on www.yourdomain.foo
[05:38] <idefixx> DJ-_-: goahead
[05:38] <DJ-_-> ok
[05:38] <predaeus> sean_, look through "man apt-cache" "man apt-get" etc... maybe there is some option to reset some caching
[05:38] <Trae> sorry for repeat.... but anyone know about TI ACX 111 Pci network card with Ubuntu 7.04 ?
[05:39] <not_a_k> anyone know how to get meta tracker to index thunderbird email?
[05:39] <sean_> predaeus: how do i do that exactly?
[05:39] <davidc_> Hey there, I just have a quick question about how kernel updates work in Ubuntu.  The last update broke my sound card (making it so that the internal speakers of the machine do not mute when a headphone is plugged in), so I've been booting off the previous kernel which is fine.  Another kernel update just appeared and I'd love to give it a spin but I'm afraid of losing the ability to boot my current kernel.  Will I keep the older ke
[05:39] <davidc_> rnel as well?
[05:39] <davidc_> Thanks
[05:39] <chatter> Frogzoo: and how do i apply it after a clean installation?
[05:39] <Beamoo> Can you compile in Kdevelop?
[05:39] <predaeus> sean_, open a terminal and type      man apt-cache      quit the man pages with :  and then q and enter
[05:40] <kitche> davidc_: ubuntu just keeps adding lines to menu.lst so you can fallback to older kernels
[05:40] <predaeus> Beamoo, look at wikipedia what an IDE is
[05:40] <Johto> funny thing this is, no tweaking to do (well there always are) but now my system is in nice shape and i'm just relaxing, drinking coffee and listening to classical music :P
[05:40] <davidc_> kitche: Thanks!
[05:40] <predaeus> Beamoo, same for gcc
[05:40] <davidc_> I'll go ahead and see if it works then and if not give it a bug report.

[05:42] <predaeus> dclam, maybe they did not have time for that yet. and it might not be done automatically.
[05:42] <Beamoo> ror: well in linux, i know some language i just need to get started with the apps
[05:42] <Johto> i like this gnome-xchat version
[05:43] <kitche> Johto: well it's it's own program
[05:43] <Johto> kitche: yeah, i ment, i like this gnome frontend for it :)
[05:43] <Johto> simple and elegant

[05:44] <CheshireViking> setuid, i think you have to email them with a specific request and an explanation of why you want more than 3 copies
[05:45] <kitche> BlueDevil: most likely yes
[05:45] <Trae> I have a tester that's a patch check
[05:45] <Trae> and everything seems fine
[05:45] <ror> How have you been writing the visual basic programs?
[05:45] <Trae> yet... the damned cables won't work.
[05:45] <setuid> CheshireViking, Its for a popular lug. THey sent me 50 CDs just shy of a year ago.
[05:45] <dclam> predaeus, i think they just don't do it for non-LTS versions.  looking at the ISOs of edgy and feisty, their timestamps indicate they aren't updated.  I'm guessing they don't bother if it's not LTS

[05:46] <Beamoo> afk
[05:46] <predaeus> dclam, probably yea, but I can't think of any reason why they would not automate that process
[05:46] <lauchlin> help
[05:46] <kitche> BlueDevil: most liekyl yes
[05:46] <setuid> marco_linux, probably not supported. Find a soundcard made by a vendor that supports Linux.

[05:46] <dclam> predaeus, i'm guessing respins have to go through a QA process that can't be fully automated
[05:46] <predaeus> dclam, probably because they introduced fatal errors in the repos before, that had to be fixed, so CDs would need testing....
[05:46] <predaeus> yup
[05:47] <limale2> the monitor of the battery don't indicate the level of the battery !

[05:48] <CheshireViking> setuid, not sure what else you can do, all i'd suggest would be to try the special request page with the explanation about the size of LUG & whether the;s a specific event that you'd need them for
[05:49] <limale2> what is the package that show the level of the battery in notebook ?
[05:49] <hylje> limale2: it's included..?
[05:50] <predaeus> dclam, somebody posted a minimal ubuntu install cd here before that could be found in the forums, and it would only install very few packages and fetch the rest from the repos. you could look for that.
[05:50] <limale2> yes, but now don't work properly...so....what are tha necessary packet ?
