[00:00] <PirateHead> moh: in System -> Administration -> Shared Folders
[00:00] <riaal> TTY=pts is from a local terminal and TTY=tty Is fron an ssh/telnet session?
[00:00] <PirateHead> moh: see if it tells you you need to install file sharing support
[00:00] <riddareralf> PirateHead, Why should I use public ftp? Then it only tries to connect anonymously, so I couldn't enter my usr and pwd
[00:00] <rondonson> JJtech, ah it loaded up , for some reason it just doesnt show me the process of it loading everything , thanks
[00:00] <DanThirst> Any one know more about video driver, and monitor setups >_>
[00:00] <JJtech> rondonson: ^_^     kk.. np :)
[00:01] <PirateHead> riddareralf: If you don't want to connect publicly, use the FTP (with login) option.
[00:01] <riddareralf> PirateHead, I CAN'T connect publicly. But with this virtual drive I can't open a file on the fly and edit
[00:01] <riddareralf> PirateHead, But I suppose that's normal since it's still FTP
[00:02] <zstars> So people, what do you do if you erase your PATH? How can you restore it to default or whatever?
[00:02] <PirateHead> riddareralf: Some programs, ones that have built-in support for Gnome VFS, will be able to edit "on the fly" as you say, without having to download, edit, and upload.
[00:02] <soldats> DanThirst, do you have the graphics drivers enabled as well
[00:02] <smth> dfd
[00:02] <DanThirst> i think how would i find out ?
[00:03] <PirateHead> riddareralf: Other programs don't have that support, but you might be able to find it in a plugin or patch if it's important to your workflow.
[00:03] <riddareralf> PirateHead, Ah okay, thanks
[00:03] <soldats> DanThirst, view this page and see if it helps http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Graphics_Driver_.28NVIDIA.29

[00:03] <smth> hi it's me
[00:04] <PirateHead> Is there a way in Ubuntu to upgrade to the latest version of Wine without breaking anything?
[00:05] <soldats> PirateHead, what would you break
[00:06] <PirateHead> soldats: My current Wine installation, the one that came with stock Gutsy.
[00:06] <seekay> non-LTS ubuntu releases get security updates for 18 months, right?
[00:06] <soldats> PirateHead, i really dont think upgrading it will hurt your system in any way
[00:07] <Grav3Mind> hey guys how can i install an icon package?
[00:07] <Grav3Mind> i just downloaded an osx one ^_^
[00:07] <PirateHead> soldats: Alrighty then, here goes nothing. :-)

[00:08] <ShaunB> Hello from a serious newb
[00:08] <CaptainMorgan> !google
[00:08] <ubotu> Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[00:08] <Grav3Mind> anyone know how i can install the icon packages?
[00:09] <jayde_drag0n> Grav3Mind: hi there again... just untar the files into your .icons folder
[00:09] <ShaunB> Anyone here know how to fix apt-get / synaptec ?
[00:09] <CaptainMorgan> Grav3Mind, maybe google does?
[00:09] <Grav3Mind> hey jayde ^_^
[00:09] <CaptainMorgan> jayde_drag0n, depends on which application he is installing icons for
[00:09] <soldats> ShaunB, what is wrong with it
[00:09] <ShaunB> Spits out this error whenever I attempt an update or install a package.Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[00:09] <jayde_drag0n> Grav3Mind: home/yourname/ hidden files .icons    thoe true
[00:10] <soldats> ShaunB, are the download mirrors correct
[00:10] <ShaunB> They appear to be
[00:10] <ShaunB> I've run apt-get update
[00:10] <Grav3Mind> should there be a index.theme and development and scalable folders?
[00:10] <ShaunB> And run apt-get autoremove
[00:10] <jayde_drag0n> CaptainMorgan: true... tho i just drag and drop when i'm just changing an icons picture
[00:11] <fungz0r> so what interesting things can i do with ubuntu
[00:11] <fungz0r> i just installed
[00:11] <ShaunB> that shows some packages that can be removed yet it wont uninstall/install anything
[00:11] <soldats> ShaunB, when doing apt-get you need to specify the package name as well
[00:11] <jayde_drag0n> Grav3Mind:  unless captain knows of another way .. if you want to change the picture of an icon .. like on my desktop.. i just went into properties.. and dragged the picture of what i wanted onto the picture of whats showsn in properties and it changes... i haven't figured out how to make it system wide yet tho
[00:11] <Micheru> hi all, i just set up ssh and i can ssh to localhost fine, but when i ssh from wan i get connected to my router, how would i get to my computer (router is <IP_ADDRESS> computer is <IP_ADDRESS> if it helps)
[00:12] <soldats> ShaunB, like apt-get install pidgin or apt-get autoremove pidgin
[00:12] <ShaunB> If I use synaptec, it gives me the same error in the console window
[00:12] <Evanlec> um why did i just get 10 dcc requests to send me Fedora 8 iso ?
[00:12] <gordonjcp> Evanlec: spammer, I should think
[00:12] <virtuososteve> fedora 8 isn't very good
[00:12] <astro76> Micheru, you need to forward port 22 to <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:12] <gordonjcp> Evanlec: some little kiddy undoubtedly found it very funny
[00:12] <soldats> Evanlec, yes it is a spammer you may be redirected if it happens a lot
[00:12] <ShaunB> Funny thing is it references Hotplug yet says its not installed when I try to remove
[00:12] <Micheru> ah, thought it would be something like that thanks
[00:12] <Laney>  /window level -JOINS -PARTS -QUITS -NICKS
[00:12] <PirateHead> fungz0r: There are lots of cool things you can do.
[00:12] <Laney> Err, oops.
[00:13] <jayde_drag0n> CaptainMorgan: do you know how to change the icon picture for where it shows up on the ... um whats the ubuntu equivalent of taskbar? t
[00:13] <ShaunB> Here is the c/v of the error
[00:13] <Grav3Mind> ah see i wanna make it system
[00:13] <ShaunB> dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 1685 package `module-init-tools': `Replaces' field, reference to `hotplug': version contains `)'E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[00:13] <Evanlec> soldats, okay, redirected?
[00:13] <PirateHead> fungz0r: If you're new to Desktop Linux in general, you definitely want to check out the awesome selection of free apps you can download. (Applications -> Add/Remove...)
[00:13] <fungz0r> oo kk thanks
[00:13] <soldats> ShaunB, hmm ive never seen that error
[00:14] <ShaunB> Because of that, it seems I can't install anything.
[00:14] <Triskaidekaphobi> what causes this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46195/ when trying to compile in a new module?
[00:14] <CaptainMorgan> jayde_drag0n, icons tend to fall in: /usr/share/icons/
[00:14] <rondonson> fungz0r, compiz is pretty cool
[00:14] <soldats> Evanlec, if you keep getting dcc requests youll be redirected to #ubuntu-???
[00:14] <CaptainMorgan> jayde_drag0n, right-click the menu or application and select "Edit Menu"
[00:14] <fungz0r> whats compiz?
[00:14] <ShaunB> fungz0r: 3D desktop + effects
[00:14] <fungz0r> oo
[00:14] <fungz0r> how do i get it?
[00:14] <jayde_drag0n> Grav3Mind:  from what i see under appearance customize... in icons... the things i untarred into .themes seem to show up in there as well
[00:14] <Evanlec> soldats, right but why me? im connected via port 8001 which i thot prevented this issue
[00:14] <PirateHead> fungz0r: Compiz makes the computer look a lot glitzier. 3D effects and so on.
[00:15] <jcsteele> i am having some troubles with the forum, it seems whenever I post a long reply, and then click on "submit" firefox just hangs and does nothing...if I log out and log back in, and then try to reply again with the copied text from my previous post....it still hangs. I can post to any other thread with no problems, and this has occured twice now on 2 different threads...any ideas?
[00:15] <PirateHead> fungz0r: You need a graphics card and driver, first of all.
[00:15] <gilnim> hi
[00:15] <jane_> ShaunB, try  sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a
[00:15] <fungz0r> haha yeah i got that :P
[00:15] <soldats> Evanlec, not sure its just lame kiddies trying to be funny
[00:15] <PirateHead> fungz0r: assuming you have a graphics card, go to the Restricted Drivers manager and enable a graphics driver.
[00:15] <Micheru> astro76: i am still getting the router on ssh, i have port forwarded as you said
[00:15] <CaptainMorgan> jayde_drag0n, once things are changed there, it will typically change what's showing for the taskbar icon
[00:15] <Evanlec> soldats, yea i know
[00:15] <soldats> they get random people
[00:15] <PirateHead> fungz0r: You could possibly use an Open Source one, but they are notoriously bad and under-powered compared to the restricted ones.
[00:15] <jcsteele> is there any illegal character combinations that I need be aware of or anything?
[00:15] <gilnim> What's the comment for scanning all devices. I want to know where my hdd are.
[00:16] <diafic> Someone name a web-based torrent client?
[00:16] <ShaunB> jane_: error - dpkg: conflicting actions -e (--control) and -r (--remove)
[00:16] <PirateHead> gilnim: lspci
[00:16] <astro76> Micheru, also you need to connect to the external public IP, not <IP_ADDRESS> which is the internal IP, and you probably can't do it from behind your router
[00:16] <jayde_drag0n> CaptainMorgan: i think i've done that... i went to edit menu... then went to the properties of each individual item and changed the picture... but while it shows up as the correct icon in the menu... it doesnt when its launched where it sits on the upper right of my screen
[00:16] <fungz0r> when i go to restricted drivers manager, says that my hardware does not need any drivers
[00:16] <fuma218> hello, have an issue connecting to a windows share
[00:16] <gilnim> PirateHead: thanks
[00:16] <PirateHead> gilnim: no problem.
[00:16] <fuma218> i am able to mount the share with the correct username and password, but i am unable to open anything. I get an Input/output error
[00:16] <CaptainMorgan> jayde_drag0n, you may need to restart your windowing system
[00:16] <Micheru> astro76: why not, i am connecting to my external ip (using a dyndns url)
[00:17] <PirateHead> fungz0r: Assuming that it's telling the truth, the next thing depends on whether you are on Feisty or Gutsy.
[00:17] <ShaunB> jane_: first console said dpkg: conflicting actions -e (--control) and -r (--remove)
[00:17] <PirateHead> (or Dapper)
[00:17] <Micheru> as in why wouldn't i be able to do that?
[00:17] <ShaunB> oops...sorry it said dpkg: unknown option --reconfigure
[00:17] <fungz0r> on using gutsy
[00:17] <jane_> ShaunB sems type    --reconfigure                  2 --
[00:18] <EjChris> alguem me chamo?
[00:18] <jayde_drag0n> CaptainMorgan: well i believe a reboot will accomplish the same thing.. and i've done that since making the changes.. and it didn't change... or is that a specific command that a reboot doesn't fix?
[00:18] <jane_> ShaunB,  typo
[00:18] <PirateHead> fungz0r: In that case, you can very easily enable Compiz by going to System -> Preferences -> Appearance
[00:18] <astro76> Micheru, only if your router supports nat relfection will that work
[00:18] <tacone> hello, question:
[00:18] <tacone> ctrl+alt+backspace reset the box, not only X
[00:18] <PirateHead> fungz0r: From that point, go to Visual Effects (the last tab), and enable one of the 3D Effects options.
[00:18] <Micheru> astro76: apparantly not then i will try from another bot thanks for the help
[00:18] <CaptainMorgan> jayde_drag0n, hmmm... I've made icon changes many times...
[00:19] <tacone> can somebody help me resolve that ?
[00:19] <CaptainMorgan> jayde_drag0n, *successfully.. so I'm not sure what's wrong with yours
[00:19] <fungz0r> which effects should i do?
[00:19] <jayde_drag0n> CaptainMorgan: i'll take a new screenshot with the menu showing so you can see what i see.. i might not be explaining right
[00:19] <mikebeecham> can anyone explain how I get Sonata to work?  It's all a little confusing for me?
[00:19] <PirateHead> fungz0r: I suggest the Extra effects, for the most wow-effect right out of the box.
[00:19] <ShaunB> jane_: Help doesn't show a reconfigure but a configure so I used that instead, and it gave me this output: dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 1685 package `module-init-tools': `Replaces' field, reference to `hotplug': version contains `)'
[00:19] <PirateHead> fungz0r: However, there is an advanced effects configurator that allows you to customize and totally soup up the effects engine.
[00:20] <fungz0r> oo kk compiz fusion just showed up
[00:20] <fuma218> anyone worked with mounting windows shares with samba?
[00:20] <tamer_> how can i see my ram size on ubuntu???
[00:20] <UBUNTUISLOVED> is there an easy way to restart network manager dameon through command line?
[00:20] <gilnim> i want to mount my ntfs hdd. normal mount doesn't work
[00:20] <ZaNGaMaN> hi there i have a little problem
[00:20] <soldats> tacone, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_disable_Ctrl.2BAlt.2BBackspace_from_restarting_X_in_GNOME
[00:20] <jane_> ShanB   sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a
[00:21] <ShaunB> k lemme try that
[00:21] <gilnim> PirateHead: lspci doen't list my hdd's
[00:21] <soldats> tamer_, type free in a terminal window
[00:21] <pipo> i was wondering how to find out the name of my network wifi card on my laptop running ubuntu (noob here)
[00:21] <PirateHead> tamer_: For RAM info, you can use the System Monitor (System -> Administration -> System Monitor) which will show you your total ram, vram, and ram usage.l
[00:21] <ZaNGaMaN> i cannot lissten to music and it does not alow me to fownload codecs i am using ubuntu
[00:21] <soldats> gilnim, type fdisk in a terminal
[00:21]  * CaptainMorgan will be back....
[00:21] <jcsteele> gilnim: man mount.ntfs-3g
[00:21] <riotkittie> PirateHead: open a terminal and type lspci
[00:21] <tacone> well
[00:21] <PirateHead> gilnim: lspci lists everything that HAL sees, so if it isn't listing your hdds, there is a problem somewhere down deeper.
[00:21] <tacone> i want it to restart gnome :-)
[00:21] <tacone> it restart everything :-)
[00:21] <tacone> i am reading thx
[00:22] <riotkittie> errr.
[00:22] <mikebeecham> is there a sonata channel, where I can get some info?
[00:22] <ZaNGaMaN> can enyone help me a litle
[00:22] <riotkittie> i suck at tab completion
[00:22] <soldats> tacone, it may be a config error so you may need to remap it
[00:22] <JJtech> !sonata
[00:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sonata - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[00:22] <ShaunB> jane_: still gives me this: dpkg: unknown option --reconfigure
[00:22] <kelsin> mikebeecham: what's the issue?
[00:22] <pipo> i was wondering how to find out the name of my network wifi card on my laptop running ubuntu (noob here) wow this channel is packed lol
[00:22] <PirateHead> riotkittie: Why should I type lspci?
[00:22] <tacone> soldats: where i find the config for that ?
[00:22] <mikebeecham> kelsin...I've installed sonata via the repos, and put into preferences what I THINK should be in there, but none of my music is showing?
[00:23] <skelter> hey all - having a problem where when i boot with my nvidia drivers enabled, something goes wrong and i have to use "low graphics mode", I think it's having issues detecting my monitor. with the drivers disabled, i don't have to use low graphics mode. can anyone help me troubleshoot this?
[00:23] <riotkittie> PirateHead: if it seems totally nonsensical, the best thing to do is disregard, eh :P
[00:23] <soldats> tacone, if you read that wiki article it should explain how to do it
[00:23] <kelsin> mikebeecham: do you know if mpd is working?
[00:23] <fungz0r> what else can i do with compiz?
[00:23] <tacone> i am reading
[00:23] <riotkittie> pipo: open a terminal and type lspci ... or lshw -C network
[00:23] <mikebeecham> no....I've been using linux for about a week kelsin
[00:23] <tacone> i guess that's not the problem
[00:23] <ZaNGaMaN> Cannot install 'gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse'
[00:23] <ZaNGaMaN> This application conflicts with other installed software. To install 'gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse' the conflicting software must be removed first.
[00:23] <ZaNGaMaN> Switch to the 'synaptic' package manager to resolve this conflict.
[00:23] <tacone> but i am trying
[00:23] <mikebeecham> kelsin...I mean I dont know
[00:23] <jayde_drag0n> CaptainMorgan: its gunna take a minute.. little laggy
[00:23] <tamer_> hi every buddy please i need to know how can i check my computer ram on obuntu????

[00:23] <tigran> Hey. I've asked this question a couple times here, so I apologize if I get repetitive. My wireless connection is less than 20mbps. It should be 54mbps. I have an Atheros card and was using the restricted driver for it. Someone here told me to try ndiswrapper and I did. Though, it did no good. If anyone else has any other ideas I would greatly appreciate it.
[00:23] <ZaNGaMaN> can you tell me why/.?
[00:24] <riotkittie> tamer_: open a terminal and type free -h
[00:24] <riotkittie> tamer_: open a terminal and type free
[00:24] <pipo> riotkittie: thanks, i got a huge list of things how do I know which is my wifi card?
[00:24] <kelsin> mikebeecham: sonata is a frontend for mpd... I would recommend (unless you KNOW you want mpd) you look into banshee, rhythmbox, or listen as a music player
[00:24] <UBUNTUISLOVED> Are you using only G on the wifi to get 54mb
[00:24] <JJtech> tamer_: go to system>>>>administration>>>>system monitor
[00:24] <PirateHead> tamer_: For RAM info, you can use the System Monitor (System -> Administration -> System Monitor) which will show you your total ram, vram, and ram usage.l
[00:24] <tamer_> tnx alot my dera
[00:24] <UBUNTUISLOVED> if you use Wifi B mode it will downgrade to what is most stable
[00:24] <mikebeecham> kelsin....are there any benefits of mpd / sonata over rhythmbox?
[00:24] <riotkittie> pipo: try lspci | grep -i wireless
[00:25] <tamer_> ok tnx alot
[00:25] <tigran> UBUNTUISOLVED: Is that for me?
[00:25] <ZaNGaMaN> PirateHead:  can you help me a little bit i am newbie in linux
[00:25] <UBUNTUISLOVED> Yup
[00:25] <UBUNTUISLOVED> go into your router and check if Wifi b mode is off
[00:25] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: I can certainly try. Are you having any particular problem?
[00:25] <tigran> UBUNTUISOLVED: Let me check. and if I understood correctly, it should be G?
[00:25] <soldats> tacone, run this in a terminal instead of using the keys sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[00:25] <Evanlec> mikebeecham, lower resource usage, thats about it
[00:25] <UBUNTUISLOVED> Yes wifi G mode is the faster of the too
[00:25] <UBUNTUISLOVED> two
[00:25] <kelsin> mikebeecham: mpd is a daemon that runs in the background behind X, to play music... there are benefits and drawbacks. If you JUST need a iTunes like music player the other three are good. MPD just allows you to restart X without killing the music player (rarely useful unless you work in odd ways) or want to control the music playing from another computer
[00:26] <Kveldulf> Is there a chance I could get help with a problem installing?
[00:26] <mikebeecham> Evanlec: thanks
[00:26] <Evanlec> mikebeecham, i like rhythmbox, and if you're happy with it, you won't be happy with mpd/sonata
[00:26] <ZaNGaMaN> piratehead i cannot listen or play a movie ,and when i am trying to instal codec it gives me that eroor mesage that i post 2 minutes ago
[00:26] <UBUNTUISLOVED> also tigran what is your percent on network manager for strength of signal
[00:26] <mikebeecham> kelsin: Evanlec...I have used rhythmbox and I do like it...I've just trying all of Linux's lovely stuff before settling down, I guess
[00:26] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: I looked up and saw your error. How did you install Ubuntu?
[00:27] <tigran> UBUNTUISOLVED: It was G and B in my router, so I put G only now. Lets see if it makes a difference
[00:27] <pipo> riotkittie: i got this 04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02) so what is the name lol sorry for the dumb question
[00:27] <UBUNTUISLOVED> yea diid you reboot or save it in the router
[00:27] <mikebeecham> I used Exaile for a while, but it kept crashing, so Rhythmbox works fine
[00:27] <tigran> UBUNTUISOLVED:Saved in the router, its at 41% now, but even if its in the 90's its the same thing
[00:27] <jayde_drag0n> CaptainMorgan: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y186/jayde_dragon/Screenshot-2.png   okay in the picture you see the main menu and you see pidgin and ktorrent... and they have pretty icons... now i have both of those running and in the upper right they have different icons there.... but they did sucessfully change when i open the menu and look thru
[00:27] <PirateHead> mikebeecham: Rhythmbox just keeps getting better. I wish they would use a slightly slicker UI, though.
[00:27] <ZaNGaMaN> piratehead i downloaded from th einternet latest veriosn
[00:27] <semba> I've got a problem since updating my Feisty box to Gutsy today - it hangs during boot, spewing out tons of "Lost interrupt" messages about my PATA drives
[00:27] <ZaNGaMaN> and after that installed
[00:28] <UBUNTUISLOVED> were are you reading this info
[00:28] <UBUNTUISLOVED> where
[00:28]  * JJtech be right back..
[00:28] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: How are you trying to install the codecs?
[00:28] <Evanlec> mikebeecham, if u find rhythmbox is laacking in some features, u might try banshee as it has more features (tho none i ever needed)
[00:28] <mikebeecham> PirateHead: the audio codec seems to be a little crisper than itunes imo
[00:28] <ZaNGaMaN> p
[00:28] <skelter> i like amarok as a music player
[00:28] <tigran> UBUNTUISLOVED: The signal strenght?
[00:28] <soldats> mikebeecham, also amarok is really nice and has many features
[00:28] <UBUNTUISLOVED> on network manager?
[00:28] <mikebeecham> Evanlec: never heard of banshee
[00:28] <riotkittie> pipo: Intel 3945ABG -- i'm not personally familiar with that chipset but afaik, intel is easy to get working
[00:28] <skelter> amarok looks slick, searches music fast, and works well with my ipod
[00:28] <tigran> UBUNTUISLOVED: Yes
[00:28] <mikebeecham> soldats: I tried Amarok...it's too 'bubbly'
[00:28] <Evanlec> mikebeecham, its a similar one to itunes/rhytmbox
[00:28] <mikebeecham> I dont like all the glossy buttons
[00:29] <soldats> mikebeecham, to each his own then
[00:29] <ZaNGaMaN> piratehead i try to play a song ,and it now working and the program is loking for codecs he found some codec i pres to instal but it not alowing me
[00:29] <UBUNTUISLOVED> what is your network card
[00:29] <pipo> oh ok no it works i just need the name for something else i was just really confused but thanks a lot
[00:29] <PirateHead> Evanlec: banshee is a music player built using Mono and C# by Novell. It's tied to the "Helix" community. It's a pretty nice player in general.
[00:29] <UBUNTUISLOVED> brand name and model
[00:29] <semba> Booting the same system with a kernel I still have left over from Feisty works, so it's something different between the two kernel versions that is causing the "Lost interrupt" message.  Has anyone else seen this?
[00:29] <ZaNGaMaN> Cannot install 'gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse'
[00:29] <jane_> ShaunB, very sory its          sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[00:29] <ZaNGaMaN> This application conflicts with other installed software. To install 'gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse' the conflicting software must be removed first.
[00:29] <ZaNGaMaN> Switch to the 'synaptic' package manager to resolve this conflict.
[00:29] <tigran> UBUNTUISLOVED: Its an atheros. And lspci to check the model?
[00:29] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: I have no clue why that would be. It should just work - it certianly did for me.
[00:29] <ZaNGaMaN> this is my eroor mesage
[00:29] <Evanlec> PirateHead, thanks for the technical info ;p
[00:29] <fungz0r> does anybody have warcraft 3, frozen throne on their ubuntu?
[00:29] <kelsin> mikebeecham: if you def try banshee and listen, both are nice as well. If you really like the look of sonata google for "Mpd" and check out it's main site. That will explain alot, good luck
[00:29] <UBUNTUISLOVED> yes
[00:30] <tigran> UBUNTUISLOVED: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212/AR5213
[00:30] <brian994> WAZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
[00:30] <brian994> oops
[00:30] <pipo> just wondering how u guys put up with this channel lol, i would go crazy trying to help everyone
[00:30] <UBUNTUISLOVED> one sec
[00:30] <brian994> sorry
[00:30] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: However, perhaps you can get things working using VLC.
[00:30] <soldats> pipo, yea it goes by really fast
[00:30] <mikebeecham> going to look at banshee...see what thats like
[00:30] <soldats> pipo, we do what we can though
[00:30] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: To try that, go to Applications -> Add and Remove, then search for VLC.
[00:30] <ZaNGaMaN> pirate i wil instal kubuntu is more easy
[00:30] <tigran> I love this channel, so helpful and people don't flame :)
[00:30] <fungz0r> anybody have warcraft 3 installed?
[00:30] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: That's a bit drastic, but if you're wanting to give Kubuntu a try, go for it!
[00:31] <kelsin> fungz0r: I do
[00:31] <ZaNGaMaN> piratehead i belive that i instaled a version for amd 64 procesoors
[00:31] <pipo> ;) cudos to you guys then lol keep up the good work!
[00:31] <kelsin> fungz0r: wine is not the easiest thing, be prepared to read and google a lot
[00:31] <ZaNGaMaN> mayby that why it does not work
[00:31] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: Are you not on an AMD 64 processor?
[00:31] <ZaNGaMaN> i am on amd am2 64 bits
[00:31] <soldats> fungz0r, vmware may also work for you
[00:32] <graelin> Can anyone point me in the right direction here? System monitor says that there 17.4G total space on my /home dir. The only subdir there is my home directory that says 95 files totaling 4.4GB. Says there is 696Mb free. Any idea where the rest is?
[00:32] <fungz0r> well my friends want to get wc3, and then i want to dl a program so i can play online
[00:32] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: Ah, that explains some things. Restricted codecs are often broken on 64-bit machines.
[00:32] <jdfoote2> Hi - I'm having some problems with OOo - Writer takes up the whole screen, covering my panels, etc. Does anyone know how that setting can be changed?
[00:32] <ZaNGaMaN> pirate head what veriosn you recomand for newbies like me?
[00:32] <UBUNTUISLOVED> Tigran DO THIS    iwlist wlan0 bitrate
[00:32] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: Version of Ubuntu?
[00:32] <ZaNGaMaN> no linux
[00:33] <graelin> How do I run a check on that partition?
[00:33] <scguy318> ZaNGaMaN: you could try enabling Medibuntu if that helps
[00:33] <ZaNGaMaN> i liked kubuntu i sow on internet somthing
[00:33] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: Ubuntu is great for Newbies. Mandriva also comes highly recommended.
[00:33] <Lounge> i locked a package version down in synaptic but the update manager still wants to update it!!! is this a bug?
[00:33] <ZaNGaMaN> wich is the difference betwin kubuntu and ubuntu?
[00:33] <scguy318> !medibuntu | ZaNGaMaN
[00:33] <ubotu> ZaNGaMaN: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[00:33] <hubuntu> which channel for talk about ububntu as a  trademark*? I'm buying a domian for the LoCo tema so I thought it would be an idea to check it
[00:34] <fungz0r> has anybody tried using a program to play LAN over the internet?
[00:34] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: Kubuntu uses a desktop environment called KDE, which is geared more for computer power-users and hackers.
[00:34] <sotec_prod> Can someone tell me what program or what alternate program I need to convert dvd ifo files to...anything? swf, avi, mpeg, anything? (it's a commercial we shot at work and it needs to go on the website)
[00:34] <scguy318> fungz0r: Hamachi, but on Windows, on Ubuntu it seems to be fubared
[00:34] <mikebeecham> banshee...looks great...but I've had to import my music from rhythmbox, as I could not specifically choose my shared media drive as a source Evanlec
[00:34] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: Gnome, which Ubuntu uses, is widely considered more newbie-friendly since it has fewer options and configuration steps to go through.
[00:34] <scguy318> sotec_prod: I know more about that stuff on Windows :P I prob would check out Afterdawn and 9doom for stuff like that
[00:34] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: However, if you love to tweak your computer, KDE gives you plenty of opportunities.
[00:35] <scguy318> sotec_prod: immediate thought would be oh VLC transcode? im not too wise on this stuff
[00:35] <mw-home> Am experimenting with editing my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  How do I restart X?
[00:35] <ZaNGaMaN> piratehead so you recomand i get ubuntu for normal 32 bits?
[00:35] <Lounge> i locked a package version down in synaptic but the update manager still wants to update it!!! is this a bug?
[00:35] <scguy318> mw-home: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
[00:35] <fungz0r> is there another program that can be used instead of hamachi?
[00:35] <fungz0r> one that works on ubuntu?
[00:35] <logan> I need to clear the MBR on a sata drive, how can I do this without a windows xp cd?
[00:35] <slvmchn> ok i have three partitions, a windows, linux, and storage partition (and linux swap but i don't count that because i don't actually see it)... so my bootloader was on my storage partition, and i used grub to dual boot vista and gutsy.... now i reinstalled XP, formatting the vista partition, but when i boot it skips grub and goes right to XP... how do i re-enable grub?
[00:35] <sotec_prod> argh.
[00:35] <tigran> UBUNTUISOLVED: I think my wifi went out for a sec. Not sure if you said anything.
[00:35] <PirateHead> ZaNGaMaN: If you're using a 64 bit processor, then using it to run a 32 bit operating system means you're giving up some of your potential.
[00:35] <sotec_prod> i need this by Monday.
[00:36] <Evanlec> mikebeecham, well, i'd stick with rhythmbox then, it does everything i need...
[00:36] <riddareralf> I did some settings to edit my mouse, now when I try to start x it gets a bit messy. XGL won't load, can I somehow check in xorg.conf where it starts?
[00:36] <mw-home> thanks for the advice.  control-alt-backspace logged me out also.
[00:36] <PirateHead> Gotta go guys.
[00:36] <ZaNGaMaN> PirateHead: but the 64 bits sistem is not working i barely instalet chatzila nothing works
[00:36] <graelin> Can anyone point me in the right direction here? System monitor says that there 17.4G total space on my /home dir. The only subdir there is my home directory that says 95 files totaling 4.4GB. Says there is 696Mb free. Any idea where the rest is?
[00:36] <kakoonia> hey, if im trying another desktop manager, lets say im switching from gnome on gutsy to kde enviorment.. if i remove gnome packages, will they remain in the same settings if im installing them back?
[00:36] <ZaNGaMaN> xcaht not alowed
[00:36] <wabiD> is there an easy way to mount an ipod as a hard drive, and not a music player
[00:36] <mikebeecham> well I've give it a go first Evanlec
[00:36] <ZaNGaMaN> rmc arhives don`t work
[00:36] <soldats> mw-home, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[00:36] <mikebeecham> I like a lot of it's features already
[00:36] <wabiD> for some reason samba wont share folders on my ipod
[00:36] <ZaNGaMaN> audiocodec don`t work
[00:36] <Evanlec> ZaNGaMaN, that is unlikely to be a 64bit issue
[00:37] <cafuego> graelin: in dotfiles and hidden directories
[00:37] <Evanlec> ZaNGaMaN, xchat and almost any other app will work on 64bit Gutsy
[00:37] <jane_> graelin, use df and du
[00:37] <sotec_prod> wabiD, mojopac for Windows allows you to boot a windows system from your ipod. Don't know about linux though
[00:37] <ZaNGaMaN> tel me at instalation
[00:37] <wabiD> i just want to be able to share my ipod file to my xbox
[00:37] <tigran> UBUNTUISOLVED: I cant send private messages. Can you tell me how to register the nickname?
[00:37] <ZaNGaMaN> i use main partiition as ext2
[00:37] <ZaNGaMaN> or as ext 3
[00:37] <Evanlec> ZaNGaMaN, ext3
[00:37] <PriceChild> !register | tigran
[00:37] <ubotu> tigran: By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about  registering your Freenode nick can be found at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration
[00:37] <UBUNTUISLOVED> one sec
[00:37] <sotec_prod> Does anyone know of video conversion software for linux?
[00:38] <ZaNGaMaN> i had ext2 now cand this be a problem?
[00:38] <deniz_> can sum1 help me with my physical science homework?
[00:38] <sotec_prod> dvd to swf. I'
[00:38] <deniz_> lol
[00:38] <sotec_prod> I've scoured the web and can't find anything
[00:38] <scguy318> sotec_prod: ffmpeg
[00:38] <Evanlec> ZaNGaMaN, no...and u can convert it to ext3
[00:38] <UBUNTUISLOVED> thanks pricechild
[00:38] <scguy318> sotec_prod: but not sure how well it does DVD IFOs
[00:38] <sotec_prod> thanks scguy318, I'll try that
[00:38] <Evanlec> ZaNGaMaN, ext3 just offers better stability if ur system crashes
[00:38] <scguy318> sotec_prod: i really would strongly suggest peeking at Afterdawn or those video sites
[00:38] <scguy318> Evanlec: along with faster mount and fsck :)
[00:38] <ZaNGaMaN> so where is the problem..... then.... cose it not alowing me anithing
[00:38] <sotec_prod> Afterdawn?
[00:38] <jb0nd38372> !register | jb0nd38372
[00:38] <sotec_prod> alright
[00:38] <scguy318> sotec_prod: doom9 also perhaps
[00:39] <Evanlec> scguy318, yea that too i spose
[00:39] <Evanlec> scguy318, but slower performance overall
[00:39] <deniz_> is FeCl3 called Iron Triclorine, Iron Tricloride or neither?
[00:39] <mw-home> is there some command-line way to discover what the current resolution is?
[00:39] <whabo> i know this might be a silly question. but is there any First Person Shooter games for ubuntu? NOT windows based... just FPS games from linux ( multiplayer)..????
[00:39] <slvmchn> whabo: yes
[00:40] <deniz_> whabo, ya
[00:40] <Evanlec> whabo, http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?src=rss&id=1907
[00:40] <Micheru> whabo: lots
[00:40] <TD-Linux> hello
[00:40] <whabo> slvmchn what games are they???
[00:40] <slvmchn> whabo: True Combat: Elite, Tremulous, and Savage: Battle for Newerth are among the best in my opinion
[00:40] <TD-Linux> I'm starting an ubuntu cd on an old computer
[00:40] <TD-Linux> how do I keep it from taking years to start?
[00:40] <deniz_> Micheru, ive never actually seen or played them
[00:40] <whabo> NICE THX .. thank you alllll
[00:40] <TD-Linux> it's been loading for 15 min
[00:40] <whabo> ill try them :P
[00:40] <slvmchn> True: Combat Elite is a mod for Wolfenstein: Enemy territory, but ET is like WW2: quake edition, too fast-paced
[00:40] <TD-Linux> X server is up
[00:40] <deniz_> Micheru, r they good like halo or half-life 2?
[00:40] <slvmchn> but the mod is amazing, it's like counterstrike but 10x better
[00:40] <Micheru> deniz_: same, my computer doesn't have the power
[00:40] <TD-Linux> see brown background and cursor
[00:40] <TD-Linux> it's busy loading off cd
[00:41] <slvmchn> much more balanced and realistcally paced
[00:41] <Evanlec> TD-Linux, there probably is no way...liveCD will always take much longer to load up then a hard drive install
[00:41] <TD-Linux> I know
[00:41] <Evanlec> TD-Linux, and on an old computer that effect will be magnified
[00:41] <TD-Linux> on other computers it takes ~10 min
[00:41] <aricz> get Warsow!
[00:41] <slvmchn> ok i have three partitions, a windows, linux, and storage partition (and linux swap but i don't count that because i don't actually see it)... so my bootloader was on my storage partition, and i used grub to dual boot vista and gutsy.... now i reinstalled XP, formatting the vista partition, but when i boot it skips grub and goes right to XP... how do i re-enable grub?
[00:41] <TD-Linux> this one
[00:41] <TD-Linux> is rediculous
[00:41] <scguy318> TD-Linux: use alternate CD if LiveCD sucks
[00:41] <TD-Linux> the purpose of the livecd is to dd the hard disk
[00:42] <deniz_> Micheru, well mine is not that weak, but this summer im collecting to buy a quad core with 8800 gt gfx which is rely good :D and im 15 ;)
[00:42] <scguy318> TD-Linux: dont use the LiveCD, use safe graphics or a different distro like Linux System Rescue CD
[00:42] <scguy318> TD-Linux: or the alternate
[00:42] <TD-Linux> okay
[00:42] <Micheru> deniz_: hehe i have an onlt pos dell and no job hehe
[00:42] <fungz0r> anybody use lancraft or battlelan? or know if it works in buntu?
[00:42] <riddareralf> If I don't have XGL at /usr/bin, then there is something wrong right?
[00:42] <Micheru> *old
[00:42] <TD-Linux> the other thing
[00:42] <TD-Linux> is there a way to force ubuntu to use dma when loading off the livecd?
[00:42] <TD-Linux> I have a feeling that might be the problem
[00:43] <scguy318> TD-Linux: it should do that automatically I believe, as kernel option dunno
[00:43] <deniz_> Micheru, i have no job yet, im hoping to work for a month and buy a comp
[00:43] <scguy318> TD-Linux: it might be something...Compiz related, dunno
[00:43] <jayde_drag0n> slvmchn: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351   that should solve your problem
[00:43] <Micheru> deniz_: then how did you get the card?
[00:43] <scguy318> TD-Linux: screw that use Linux System Rescue CD
[00:43] <Micheru> present ?
[00:43] <deniz_> Micheru, im going to get them this summer
[00:43] <Micheru> ah
[00:43] <kakoonia> how can i switch the current login screen?
[00:43] <scguy318> kakoonia: change appearance?
[00:44] <deniz_> Micheru, its my goal
[00:44] <Micheru> deniz_: i just graduated, applied in a million places and no reply :(
[00:44] <deniz_> Micheru, currently i have a p4 3 ghz with ht and 1 gb ram with ati radeon x600 pro
[00:44] <ArthurArchnix> kakoonia: >system >administration >login window... I beileve it's the second tab
[00:44] <Grav3Mind> guys how do i enable the default theme manager? i dont wanna use emerald
[00:44] <deniz_> Micheru, im in grade 10
[00:45] <scguy318> Grav3Mind: just remove the emerald --replace thing if you did that
[00:45] <scguy318> Grav3Mind: how exactly did you enable Emerald anyway?
[00:45] <kakoonia> ArthurArchnix : hehe.. i was just there... looked for it 2 times.. and couldnt find it :) now i did!
[00:45] <TD-Linux> w00t
[00:45] <kakoonia> ArthurArchnix : thanks.
[00:45] <Micheru> p4 1.6 ghz 384MB SDRAM 32MB ATI RAGE 128 PRO, as i said just completed hs
[00:45] <ArthurArchnix> kakoonia:  np
[00:45] <TD-Linux> looks like it spent the last 5 minutes loading the desktop picture
[00:45] <deniz_> Micheru, is there any chance that u did chemistry or physical science?
[00:45] <jdfoote2> Can anyone help with an OpenOffice problem?
[00:46] <Micheru> deniz_: none
[00:46] <ArthurArchnix> ask! | jdfoote2
[00:46] <ArthurArchnix> oops
[00:46] <ArthurArchnix> !ask | jdfoote2
[00:46] <ubotu> jdfoote2: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[00:46] <jdfoote2> OpenOffice is taking up my whole screen, covering the panels, etc.
[00:47] <ArthurArchnix> jdfoote2: Sounds like it's in full screen mode.
[00:47] <jdfoote2> And the menu is unresponsive
[00:47] <deniz_> Micheru, i kinda have to do my homework and i came on the ubuntu channel looking for help lol, i thot i would find some but ill google insted
[00:47] <jdfoote2> Do you know where that setting is?
[00:47] <gilnim> howto mount a *.iso
[00:47] <fungz0r> lol
[00:47] <scguy318> gilnim: use fuseiso or do mount -o loop isofile /mnt/point
[00:47] <ArthurArchnix> jdfoote2: Try hitting Ctrl+Shift+J
[00:47] <danbhfive> anyone know about apache configuration? ie how do I add to it?
[00:47] <Micheru> deniz_: haha, hmm maybe we should take this convbo to pm, (i am unfiltered so you can pm, me)
[00:48] <Lounge> i think this is a synaptic bug - wants to update locked packages
[00:48] <jdfoote2> Arthur: No go - that puts it into fullscreen mode
[00:48] <fungz0r> what are some good keyboard or mouse shortcuts?
[00:49] <ArthurArchnix> jdfoote2: You'll have to describe your problem then. I thought you were stuck in full-screen mode, but it sounds like going full screen then undoing has no effect on your problem. So what exactly is the problem?
[00:49] <danbhfive> how do I edit my apache configuration?
[00:51] <ZaNGaMaN> how i unrar an rpm archive i instaled rpm too
[00:51] <tyler_3> ssh password storage on either putty or poderosa? anyone wanna take a stab or refer a program?
[00:51] <nirgle> *ahem*
[00:51] <nirgle> somebody kb me
[00:51] <nirgle> somebody kb me
[00:51] <nirgle> somebody kb me
[00:51] <nirgle> somebody kb me
[00:51] <ZaNGaMaN> !rpm
[00:51] <ubotu> 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)
[00:51] <jdfoote2> Arthur: That makes the icon menu disappear - when out of full screen mode the icons are there, but the program takes up the whole screen, and doesn't show the top bar, and covers my panel at the bottom
[00:52] <jayde_drag0n> hey what is the command to change my name in here?
[00:52] <danbhfive> \name maybe
[00:52] <jdfoote2> Clicking a menu button (File, edit, etc.) brings up the menu for a moment, then the menu disappears
[00:52] <jdfoote2> Arthur: In addition, right-clicking in the program does the same thing - bringing up a menu, which quickly disappears
[00:52] <Jack_Sparrow> nick?
[00:52] <ArthurArchnix> jdfoote2: Oh... I think I understand. When you hit maximize it takes up the whole screen and your panels don't act like the edge of the screen then?
[00:52] <ZaNGaMaN> use /nick ............
[00:53] <jdfoote2> I've heard that it's related to Compiz
[00:53] <magnetron> tyler_3: i got to go now, but you need to generate a private/public key pair. putty has a tool with good instructions.
[00:53] <jdfoote2> Arthur - it's maximized from the start, and that's right - the panels don't act like the edge of the screen
[00:53] <jayde_drag0n_im_> grr
[00:53] <tyler_3> thats not the answer
[00:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !patience
[00:53] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[00:53] <jayde_drag0n_gir> ugh
[00:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !attitude
[00:53] <jayde_drag0n_gir> i guess theres a character limit
[00:54] <Jack_Sparrow> mine is 12.. how long do you want it.
[00:54] <soldats> !grrr
[00:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about grrr - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[00:54] <soldats> lol
[00:54] <jaydedrag0n_girl> hehe there it is
[00:54] <soldats> yay
[00:54] <magnetron> tyler_3: password storage is not enabled for SSH sessions, in accordance with the ssh specification. that's why you generate a key pair.
[00:55] <jaydedrag0n_girl> hahah ubotu doesn't know frustration... thats nice
[00:55] <southafrikanse> hello. Does WIndows boot in a Logic partition?
[00:55] <ArthurArchnix> Ok... well, that's quirky behaviour which I presume lasts even after restarting openoffice and rebooting the computer? I'll take a quick look into this.. in the meanwhile, have you tried enabled hardware acceleration in >tools >options >view ? It may help openoffice "play nicer" with compiz.
[00:55] <K_Dallas> Hi guys! Installed, updated gutsy on toshiba satellite laptop and mplayer plays nicely the movies except that i  do not have sound! any help? Thanks
[00:55] <soldats> does ubotu know what love is
[00:55] <jaydedrag0n_girl> !love
[00:55] <ubotu> Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.
[00:55] <jdfoote2> Arthur: Is that in OO or Compiz?
[00:55] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: windows prefers primary partition.. but #windows people will know other options
[00:55] <jaydedrag0n_girl> LMAO

[00:56] <Jack_Sparrow> lspci or lsusb
[00:56] <dondong> hi,ever1
[00:56] <soldats> K_Dallas, do you have the codecs for audio
[00:56] <southafrikanse> Jack_Sparrow: The problem is I am unable to boot Windows in grub menu
[00:56] <magnetron> !msgthebot > jaydedrag0n_girl
[00:56] <wordupson> Jack_Sparrow, just say "belkin components"
[00:56] <jaydedrag0n_girl> !msgthebot
[00:56] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids.
[00:57] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: Was windows installed first or aftewr Ubuntu
[00:57] <K_Dallas> soldats, i thought w32... would install everything
[00:57] <K_Dallas> soldats, what should i install then
[00:57] <southafrikanse> Jack_Sparrow: before obviously
[00:57] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: NOt so obvious..
[00:57] <lightrush> !seen file
[00:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen file - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[00:57] <soldats> K_Dallas, use 'synaptic' package manager and search for all the codecs you want
[00:57] <danbhfive> !apache
[00:57] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[00:57] <ZaNGaMaN> !soundcodec
[00:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about soundcodec - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[00:57] <ZaNGaMaN> !sound
[00:57] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[00:58] <southafrikanse> Jack_Sparrow: can I or can I not boot Windows?
[00:58] <ArthurArchnix> jdfoote2: Openoffice... though if you're running compiz I think the eventual solution will be found in there. But for an easy try at fixing it you can try and play with those view settings in openoffice, tools, options

[00:58] <Jack_Sparrow> boot
[00:58] <magnetron> K_Dallas: many users prefer the ubuntu-restricted-extras package, contains most codecs
[00:58] <Csaba> i cant get trash can and showdesktop on there
[00:58] <soldats> lol
[00:58] <K_Dallas> soldats, but before that, how could i check to see if the system sound is working? the volume control looks all right nut i have to see if it works, to hear something
[00:58] <jdfoote2> Arthur: Thanks for your help
[00:59] <K_Dallas> magnetron, thanks i check that out
[00:59] <southafrikanse> Jack_Sparrow: then can you help me?

[00:59] <soldats> K_Dallas, type alsamixer in a terminal and turn all the levels up
[00:59] <ArthurArchnix> ok
[00:59] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: I would suggest you fdisk -l   to see your partition layout..
[00:59] <magnetron> !msgthebot > ZaNGaMaN
[00:59] <soldats> K_Dallas, then try a song if it doesnt work install the codecs via synaptic
[00:59] <K_Dallas> soldats, master and mc... they are both up, 100%
[00:59] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: then /boot/grub/menu.lst  will show you where grub is looking for windows
[00:59] <Hanyou> Hello, I have a Gutsy install that is not pulling down an IP address from DHCP, but has all the drivers installed and I am posting this from a Gutsy laptop at the same time the desktop is running. So it's not a Linux issue. Please help!

[01:00] <danbhfive> !msgthebot > danbhfive
[01:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Hanyou: if you type an ip address into firefox do you get google or whatever..
[01:01] <kyley> !ask
[01:01] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:01] <Hanyou> No, I can't even execute a ping command.
[01:01] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: there should be a section on your windows install if one exists
[01:01] <Hanyou> To my Local net*
[01:01] <Hanyou> I.E. <IP_ADDRESS>-254 I get nothing.
[01:02] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: post your menu.lst to the pastebin and give up the link in channel
[01:02] <Tornado> anyone who know where i can get help with beryl manager
[01:02] <K_Dallas> soldats, i put an audio CD and there is no sound! i shouldnt need a codec for that, should i?
[01:02] <Jack_Sparrow> !beryl
[01:02] <ubotu> Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion.  New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz
[01:02] <K_Dallas> soldats, and all the controls are up
[01:02] <magnetron> Tornado: in some cases, here. ask your question to the channel

[01:03] <Odd-rationale> Tornado: Why not use compiz-fusion instead?
[01:03] <Tornado> o
[01:03] <Jack_Sparrow> pipo: It is always better to get a program through the repos and not try to compile it yourself...
[01:03] <kelsin> Hanyou: you can try running the dhclient command on the command line (Just "sudo dhclient eth#" where eth# is your network card [ussually eth0]) and see if you get any type of errors
[01:03] <Hanyou> Jack_Sparrow: Right now I'm trying to do static IP if that helps at all
[01:03] <loca|host> i've just installed Ubuntu Gutsy and got a problem with the sound, i get it very very low

[01:05] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[01:05] <pipo> whats a repo lol? i instaled it with synaptic and i found the app in usr/bin and it says i dont have permissions
[01:05] <kelsin> pipo what app
[01:05] <user1> hi
[01:05] <ToddEDM> Jack_Sparrow:  i have the printer installed
[01:06] <user1> are ubuntu defaults set up by idiots?
[01:06] <pipo> does it matter what app?
[01:06] <thor> ToddEDM: do you have samba installed?
[01:06] <PriceChild> user1, ask your real questino and think carefully.
[01:06] <user1> there is some horrible noise when I use terminal... wtf
[01:06] <kelsin> pipo yes
[01:06] <magnetron> pipo: yes
[01:06] <PriceChild> user1, that isn't normal.
[01:06] <Micheru> ToddEDM: try echo "test123" | lpr and see if anything happens
[01:06] <ToddEDM> yes thor
[01:06] <user1> PriceChild: when I press backspace for example
[01:06] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: windows was installed first?  any other windows partitions?
[01:06] <PriceChild> user1, that's the pc speaker
[01:06] <pipo> lol ok, its called kismet something to see info about my network
[01:06] <ToddEDM> echo "test123" | lpr
[01:06] <LjL> PriceChild, i think he means the bell.
[01:06] <ToddEDM> just type that in Terminal?
[01:06] <Micheru> ToddEDM: yes
[01:07] <user1> PriceChild: how to stop that
[01:07] <Micheru> yeah
[01:07] <ToddEDM> cool i will try
[01:07] <kelsin> user1: if you're using the gnome terminal just right click / edit current profile and uncheck terminal bell
[01:07] <kelsin> pipo that program needs root
[01:07] <magnetron> pipo: type "sudo kismet" in a terminal
[01:07] <ArthurArchnix> Do you know, is there a pdf viewer that let's you make notes on it, like foxit reader?
[01:07] <kelsin> pipo: run it as "sudo kismet"
[01:07] <ToddEDM> absolutly nothing happened, it just went to the next line
[01:07] <user1> thanks
[01:07] <n215> how do i setup default gw for nas0 interface that wasnt created yet?
[01:07] <tuxthepenguin533> #kubuntu
[01:07] <Micheru> ToddEDM: how did you install the printer?
[01:07] <ZaNGaMaN> The required software to play this file is not installed. You need to install suitable codecs to play media files. Do you want to search for a codec that supports the selected file?
[01:07] <ZaNGaMaN> The search will also include software which is not officially supported.
[01:08] <kelsin> pipo: non-root users aren't allowed to get that type of info from the network card, so in this situation that program shouldn't be able to be run as a normal user
[01:08] <user1> why is that stupid noise on by default?
[01:08] <PriceChild> user1, because it informs the user of something
[01:08] <LjL> thank you chanserv, sorry chanserv
[01:08] <virtuososteve> hey
[01:08] <PriceChild> user1, its a feature.
[01:08] <pipo> any ideas?
[01:08] <ToddEDM> Micheru:  well i wouldnt say "i" installed it , but it came up in the list of printers to use , in a drop box
[01:08] <virtuososteve> i was wondering if somebody could help me on getting halo to work on linux
[01:08] <soldats> sometimes ubotu gets mad whe you ask the same question more than once
[01:08] <user1> PriceChild: that user it not deaf and is irritated by high pitch sounds?
[01:08] <Impiety> i've done literally everything i could find to do to try to get mp3s to play with amarok, but for some reason it won't work
[01:08] <magnetron> pipo: yes, run it with "sudo kismet" in a terminal
[01:08] <PriceChild> user1, then turn it off. EOD.
[01:09] <Impiety> would anyone know why?
[01:09] <virtuososteve> im reading a website on it but i dont understand on how to do it
[01:09] <soldats> be patient and if anyone knows how to solve your problem they will try to help
[01:09] <Micheru> ok then it should just work :/ it did for me. did you choose the correct driver? (stupid question i suppose)
[01:09] <LjL> !info xournal | ArthurArchnix

[01:09] <user1> how to use sounds?
[01:09] <Hanyou> kelsin: When I run that command from terminal I get good results and it binds to <IP_ADDRESS>, but still no internet access or ability to ping local IP's.
[01:09] <thor> ToddEDM: did you run CUPS and configure the printer? Cups is reached via a browser...localhost:631
[01:09] <user1> dvd player shows video, but silence
[01:09] <kelsin> Hanyou: run ifconfig and make sure the ip / netmask and other settings look ok
[01:10] <pipo> oh ok so thats what sudo is about thanks
[01:10] <ToddEDM> thor, when i selected the printer, it said it was using CUPS
[01:10] <thor> ToddEDM: you should be able to find the same printer in cups on both computers...your desktop and laptop ...it should show as a network printer on the laptop and a local printer on the desktop
[01:10] <soldats> user1, you need the codecs use synaptic and search for all codecs and install them
[01:10] <pipo> ill be back in a bit
[01:10] <LjL> !restricted > user1    (user1, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:10] <ToddEDM> so cups is the driver?

[01:10] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: windows was installed first and installed itself on sda6 ?
[01:10] <user1> how to have alsa using the creative
[01:10] <PsyDeViL> hmm. can anyone suggest me what ubuntu version i should stick with.  i have tried gutsy , feisty , on my desktop and they install by using safe graphics mode.  However when i try to use edgy eft i can not boot into install.  The system crashes and i hear a beep and screen goes black. (if any1 could shed some light on boot options to use with f6).  The reason i am doing this is because my ati AGP card is not supported in fesity and gutsy.

[01:11] <virtuososteve> so does anyone know who to install halo on linux through wine?
[01:11] <Hanyou> kelsin: Stupid question "What is bcast in Linux's ifconfig?"

[01:11] <ubotu> hate is a thing we don't encourage - why waste your energy
[01:11] <soldats> lol i like ubotu

[01:11] <virtuososteve> read this: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Halo:_PC_(Linux)
[01:12] <user1> wow first 5 minutes in ubuntu and it already crashed!  awesome job ubuntu team
[01:12] <scguy318> or better yet, the AppDb
[01:12] <scguy318> user1: what's the problem?
[01:12] <duhokay> lol
[01:12] <soldats> your doing it wrong
[01:12] <PsyDeViL> user1

[01:12] <LjL> user1, do you want support, or are you trying to troll? i'm starting to think the latter.

[01:12] <ToddEDM> thor  just add it from add/remove programs?
[01:12] <LjL> !dvd > user1    (user1, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:12] <southafrikanse> Jack_Sparrow: I had Mandriva installed as well. But I then installed Ubuntu over it. Maybe that's why Windows is sda6
[01:12] <DanThirst> is there a way to turn ssh on from recovery console, or a way to get network working from recovery mode?
[01:12] <scguy318> user1: if you run VLC from the terminal, can you pastebin the error messages at the terminal prompt?
[01:12] <scguy318> user1: or perhaps an excerpt of the messages that VLC produces
[01:12] <thor> cups...yeah..I guess so. To be honest I don't recall if I added it or if it was there by default
[01:13] <user1> libdvdread: Encrypted DVD support unavailable.
[01:13]  * user1 slaps riaa
[01:13] <LjL> then read the bot factoid
[01:13] <jaydedrag0n_girl> PsyDeViL: those are just different versions of ubuntu... gutsy is the lastest install of the product.. edgy is a couple years old if i am correct
[01:13] <thor> ToddEDM: open your browser on the desktop and for the url type 'localhost:631'
[01:13] <thor> see if it works
[01:13] <danbhfive> PsyDeViL: why isnt your card supported in gutsy?
[01:13] <Hanyou> user1: VLC does not have some codecs for protected DVD's sometimes. Try a different DVD player.
[01:13] <DanThirst> or even boot from grub loader with out the GUI to boot up because something is screwed up i just need networking and a console
[01:13] <scguy318> user1: you need to enable the Medibuntu repo
[01:13] <user1> LjL: still, it is not very pro to just crash instead any msg box is it
[01:13] <virtuososteve> no vlc works you just have to get the right codecs
[01:13] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: http://pastebin.com/m4649723a           is where I would start  or try super grub repair cd
[01:13] <scguy318> user1: and install libdvdcss2, that cannot be distributed legally in some jurisdictions
[01:13] <DanThirst> but whenever grub loads stuff just stop displaying
[01:13] <scguy318> !medibuntu | user1
[01:13] <ubotu> user1: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[01:13] <virtuososteve> i had the same problem w/ vlc
[01:14] <soldats> user1, also try gxine
[01:14] <kelsin> Hanyou: so pings to other local addresses that are local do not work?
[01:14] <ToddEDM> ok cool  thor
[01:14] <scguy318> virtuososteve: libdvdcss2 :)
[01:14] <thor> ToddEDM: once you have the desktop configured...do the same in the laptop, but configure a network printer
[01:14] <virtuososteve> yeah thats what i got and it worked
[01:14] <LjL> user1, that's VLC, it's not developed by the ubuntu developers, it's in universe (community supported packages), and it's done for free, so feel free to ask question, but there's no need to be sarcastic
[01:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !dvd
[01:14] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs

[01:15] <ToddEDM> thor:  im on my laptop, and i selected PRINTERS , and the printer from the desktop is there

[01:15] <magnetron> LjL: EUCD is a directive and not a law
[01:15] <Hanyou> kelsin: It now pings to <IP_ADDRESS>-254, but not to my net at the other end of a point to point T1 that has the local IP range of <IP_ADDRESS>-254. It needs to ping to that to get out to the net.
[01:15] <virtuososteve> i have wine

[01:16] <thor> ToddEDM: so....do we need to be MORE successful <smile>
[01:16] <jrib> clay3482: you need to tell us the promlem
[01:16] <magnetron> virtuososteve: did you check appdb?
[01:16] <virtuososteve> i just need to know how to do this:  The installer will not run without mfc42.dll, so download the file from [1] and extract the file to your /home/<yourname>/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 directory
[01:16] <LjL> magnetron: as a directive, countries must implement it as a law. some might not have done so yet, and others may have interpreted it more liberally, but the fact remains that it applies in a few of them.
[01:16] <soldats> !ask | clay3482
[01:16] <ubotu> clay3482: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:16] <virtuososteve> what is "appdb?"
[01:16] <user1> so UE now also is that stupid america corportations bit^H hostage :( ?
[01:16] <Hanyou> kelsin: I have my laptop running the same config and it is not having any problems so I doubt it's just Linux unfriendly hardware.

[01:16] <kelsin> Hanyou: check the output of route -n on your laptop and desktop and compare
[01:16] <Jack_Sparrow> southafrikanse: You might try !diskmounter  and mount your windows partitions and make sure windows files are still there.
[01:17] <ToddEDM> thor:  nm
[01:17] <virtuososteve> look i have wine updated and everything i just need to know how to put this certian file in the wine folder
[01:17] <LjL> user1, this is not a politics channel, i'm simply telling you even if you don't live in the US, there may still be laws against using some DVD decryption... you should check from more reliable sources if you're concerned about it.
[01:17] <Hanyou> kelsin: Yes, just double checked.
[01:17] <ToddEDM> i spoke too soon
[01:17] <scguy318> virtuososteve: use Nautilus or whatever you do when you want to copy files
[01:17] <jrib> virtuososteve: if you want to know what appdb is, visit winehq
[01:17] <thor> ToddEDM: log into the desktop. You view the jobs in a terminal with 'lpq' and cancel them with the 'cancel' command
[01:17] <virtuososteve> can you give me the link again please?
[01:17] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: k3b will do it..  do you have an iso you are working with
[01:17] <scguy318> !appdb > virtuososteve (see the PM)
[01:17] <K_Dallas__> guys! I installed the restricted-extra and still no sound!
[01:17] <ToddEDM> thor i canceled them with cups , in the browser
[01:17] <thor> ToddEDM: I assume you have sshd running on one or both computers?
[01:17] <danbhfive> virtuososteve, what is the problem that you are having?
[01:18] <ToddEDM> thor:  im not sure what sshd is
[01:18] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: if so.. right click the iso and select write to disk
[01:18] <scguy318> ToddEDM: sshd = SSH server
[01:18] <clay3482> my problem is I changed the mount point on a external USB HD - I thought I could make it open up to specific directory - anyway now when I try and mount it the system displays moint_point cannot contain the following characters: newline, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /) so apparently i didnt set it right. how do i reset it back to default?
[01:18] <kelsin> Hanyou: and this is probably a stupid question, but the netmask and broadcast are the same on desktop and laptop?
[01:18] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, yes. I can't find the option and I found an article stating that it lacked the unfunctionality
[01:18] <ToddEDM> how do i check?
[01:18] <LjL> K_Dallas__: does « sudo cat </dev/urandom >/dev/dsp » give you sound? (warning, might be loud)
[01:18] <Hanyou> kelsin: My laptop was having similar problems earlier today, but it resolved itself mysteriously.
[01:18] <thor> ToddEDM: it is the ssh server...you should install it on the desktop, then you can log into the desktop from the laptop without having to go in the other room
[01:18] <Hanyou> kelsin: I will check.
[01:18] <ZaNGaMaN> for a newbie wich is better mandriva or kubuntu?
[01:18] <virtuososteve> i have to put mfc42.dll in  /home/<yourname>/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32
[01:19] <virtuososteve> UBUNTU
[01:19] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: Please link the article..
[01:19] <LjL> virtuososteve: the problem being?
[01:19] <jrib> ZaNGaMaN: try both and use what you like
[01:19] <danbhfive> so, whats the problem?  why dont you just do it?
[01:19] <kelsin> ZaNGaMaN: either
[01:19] <thor> ToddEDM: after you install and learn ssh and sshd...look at the -X option for ssh...you can run linux apps on the desktop in a window on the laptop
[01:19] <soldats> clay3482, you most likely need to edit your fstab file
[01:19] <clay3482> ZaNgaMan - UBUNTU 7.10 no doubt
[01:19] <magnetron> LjL: the implementation differs greatly between countries. as an example, the Swedish implementation allows you to circumvent copy protection if it's necessary for legal access to your media. (watching your dvds with libdvdcss2 etc)
[01:19] <virtuososteve> how to get to it and getting the privileges
[01:19] <Hanyou> kelsin: They are the same.
[01:19] <K_Dallas__> LjL, it says device is busy
[01:19] <ArthurArchnix> LjL: xournal loads the pdf as a background image, making reading difficult. Any other suggestions? An adobe acrobat like product perhaps?
[01:19] <clay3482> soldats - where is teh fastab file
[01:19] <virtuososteve> becoming root
[01:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[01:19] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[01:19] <astro76> clay3482, you changed it through the properties? when you edit it there, it should not be the full path, but just the directory under /media to use
[01:19] <scguy318> virtuososteve: the Wine folder is owned by you...
[01:19] <kelsin> Hanyou: honestly this goes beyond my understanding then :-( good luck with it
[01:19] <danbhfive> virtuososteve: ok, i can help, but you need to be specific with your questions
[01:19] <jrib> virtuososteve: it's in your home, you don't need to be root
[01:19] <scguy318> virtuososteve: Ctrl + H in Nautilus to see
[01:19] <LjL> magnetron, i don't think i've said *all* EU countries make it illegal.
[01:19] <ToddEDM> thor:  im not getting what your saying... it is a linux box too, my desktop
[01:19] <ArthurArchnix> Jack_Sparrow: I'd never seen that root thing before. That's hilarious
[01:19] <soldats> clay3482, sudo gedit fstab
[01:19] <user1> how to tell alsa to use my creative card (i have 2 cards)
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[01:20] <scguy318> soldats: gksudo gedit
[01:20] <LjL> ArthurArchnix, perhaps acrobat itself?
[01:20] <clay3482> astro76 - I know that now - thanks
[01:20] <ToddEDM> ubuntu
[01:20] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, I just closed it...let me look...I think it was older version...he was referencing...but google didn't turn up much else. you stated that it will do it...can you point me to where the option was?
[01:20] <thor> ToddEDM: right...but you can run everything from both computers on the laptop screen (or the desktop screen if you prefer)
[01:20] <Hanyou> kelsin: Don't worry I bashed my head with my laptop for 2 hours today for it to mysteriously start working tonight.
[01:20] <soldats> scguy318, huh
[01:20] <LjL> virtuososteve, why would you need root, since the folder is in your own user's home?
[01:20] <astro76> clay3482, to fix it you will have to find and delete the entry using gconf-editor
[01:20] <scguy318> soldats: when running GUI apps, use gksudo
[01:20] <soldats> scguy318, i know i was trying to help clay3482
[01:20] <thor> ToddEDM: install sshd on the desktop...it will only take a minute
[01:20] <danbhfive> Hanyou: have you tried the dig command?
[01:20] <scguy318> soldats: not sudo
[01:20] <virtuososteve> ok i get it
[01:20] <virtuososteve> no root
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: what kind of file is it you are starting with?
[01:20] <pikeshouse88> you know what you could do for halo with linux, buy a freaking xbox for 50 bucks, there you go, geez people are we serious about this?
[01:20] <virtuososteve> here's my question
[01:20] <ArthurArchnix> LjL: Under wine, of course... I mean I can just take notes. I'm not about to drop a few hundo's for the privelege of making a few notes. I'll keep my eyes out though for something...
[01:21] <scguy318> pikeshouse88: we dont want to sponsor MS, duh
[01:21] <K_Dallas__> LjL, when i installed and the livecd was loaded, there was sound! now that it is fully installed, no sound
[01:21] <scguy318> pikeshouse88: though I guess the copy of Halo does that in a way :P
[01:21] <pikeshouse88> dont be ridiculous
[01:21] <soldats> scguy318, gedit runs as gui anyways
[01:21] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, article: http://alternativenayk.wordpress.com/2007/01/19/the-value-of-k3b-cddvd-burning-software/
[01:21] <scguy318> pikeshouse88: some of us like our PCs
[01:21] <scguy318> soldats: when running a GUI app as root, prefix with gksudo
[01:21] <Hanyou> danbhfive: Didn't know there was one. I'm pretty new to Linux as a whole since the late 90's.
[01:21] <scguy318> soldats: not sudo
[01:21] <thor> ToddEDM: you might also need xinet...not sure if it is installed or not
[01:21] <Jack_Sparrow> virtuososteve: Questions about getting your windows programs to run under wine are better asked in #winehq
[01:21] <Xacarith> Has any one here ever tried to run something called OpenRPG?
[01:21] <LjL> ArthurArchnix, uh, no, not under WINE. there is a Linux version of Acrobat Reader, and there used to be an official Ubuntu package too. now there's no official package anymore, but i think it's still in some repository
[01:21] <ToddEDM> whats the command to install sshd
[01:21] <kelsin> virtuososteve: honestly wine is going to take work to make work right. If you don't fully understand copying files around your home directory yet you might want to wait a bit and learn some about linux before trying to get wine working
[01:21] <thor> ToddEDM: install it from synaptic
[01:21] <pikeshouse88> the microsoft gaming division is fine to support
[01:21] <duhokay> is it possible to share an ntfs drive from ubuntu?
[01:21] <thor> ToddEDM: and make sure xinet is installed also
[01:21] <virtuososteve> i need to get mfc42 into the wine folder, and ive looked for it but cant find it, i have wine but cant find the file
[01:21] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, it's a windows xp volume license iso I created from the original...which is in the safe at the office and I've burned a ton of cd's from.
[01:22] <jrib> !ssh > toddedm (read the private message from ubotu)
[01:22] <scguy318> pikeshouse88: great i guess
[01:22] <ToddEDM> k thor
[01:22] <Jack_Sparrow> !ntfs-3g
[01:22] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:22] <magnetron> !anyone > Xacarith
[01:22] <scguy318> virtuososteve: Ctrl+H!
[01:22] <scguy318> virtuososteve: just do it
[01:22] <virtuososteve> and i know my way around ubuntu, k? i just cant find the file
[01:22] <virtuososteve> i did
[01:22] <danbhfive> hanyou: lol, I've only been using it for a year, I know random bits, dig tests the dns
[01:22] <thor> ToddEDM: I'll wait here <smile>
[01:22] <kelsin> duhokay: yes, once you get ntfs reading and writing working, you can share it just the same as any other linux fs (nfs, samba etc)
[01:22] <virtuososteve> nothing happens
[01:22] <duhokay> thanks
[01:22] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, I mounted the iso into a folder to test the contents were accessible. I only did a ls but looked fine...
[01:22] <scguy318> virtuososteve: in Nautilus?
[01:22] <scguy318> virtuososteve: should show hidden files in your home
[01:22] <virtuososteve> wats is nautilus?
[01:22] <scguy318> virtuososteve: the file manager
[01:22] <jrib> !who | virtuososteve
[01:22] <ubotu> virtuososteve: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[01:22] <danbhfive> hanyou: dig yahoo.com to see if you get an ip
[01:22] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: then do as I said earlier... right click the iso and select write to disk
[01:22] <virtuososteve> k
[01:22] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: You dont need k3b
[01:22] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, I'm looking to see if gnome baker has an option
[01:22] <LjL> virtuososteve: "I know my way around Ubuntu" - "What is Nautilus?"
[01:22] <southafrikanse> Jack_Sparrow: I have sda6 mounted. I can access my windows files perfectly
[01:22] <LjL> funny...
[01:23] <thor> ToddEDM: it is called xinetd in synaptic
[01:23] <virtuososteve> LJL: wow your funny
[01:23] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, I did that and it's not working. to be fair I didn't try to browse the cd after burning
[01:23] <Xacarith> I'm getting this error along with one other 'socket.gaierror: (-5, 'No address associated with hostname')
[01:23] <Xacarith> '
[01:23] <amicrawler> what is the command to tell what  ubuntu i'm running
[01:24] <scguy318> amicrawler: lsb_release -a
[01:24] <Hanyou> danbhfive: It stops at the other end of my T1 line on my firewall at <IP_ADDRESS>. I don't think it's just my firewall though, because it can't hit any of my server farm on that range either.
[01:24] <K_Dallas> amicrawler, uuname
[01:24] <LjL> virtuososteve, so are you. i think you're not listening to what people actually suggest to you, and rather assuming you know better. perhaps you don't, if you don't even know what nautilus is. open Nautilus in your home directory, hit Ctrl+H, and see if a ".wine" folder appears.
[01:24] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: that option works fine.. best to select a slower burning speed than normal
[01:24] <thor> ToddEDM: and opensshd
[01:24] <virtuososteve> i did it thank you
[01:24] <magnetron> LjL: keep an eye on FloodBot<1,2,3>
[01:24] <LjL> magnetron, duh, look at the hostmasks
[01:24] <amicrawler> ok thanx
[01:24] <thor> ToddEDM: nope...openssh-server
[01:24] <virtuososteve> LjL: "thanks man your a great help"
[01:24] <Hanyou> danbhfive: the last valid thing it hits is my Cisco Gateway on this range at <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:24] <amicrawler> runing feisty
[01:25] <amicrawler> cool
[01:25] <ToddEDM> ok got em both instsalled
[01:25] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, maybe that's it...trying to mount now...it seems to mount fine
[01:25] <ToddEDM> hey thor, should i be doing this on the desktop too ?
[01:25] <K_Dallas> LjL, any hope that i get my sound back?
[01:25] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, I'm trying to install into a virtual box...and I'm getting invalid bootable media
[01:25] <thor> ok...let's see if it is working. On the laptop open a terminal and type 'ssh desktopip'
[01:26] <danbhfive> hanyou: interesting, so you can't ping outside of that
[01:26] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, I'm wondering if there's a problem with the file because I couldn't mount the iso from virtual box
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: ok.. I dont do anything vm,wine etc...  someone may be able to help
[01:26] <ToddEDM> todd@todd-laptop:~$ ssh desktopip
[01:26] <ToddEDM> ssh: desktopip: Name or service not known
[01:26] <ToddEDM> todd@todd-laptop:~$
[01:26] <thor> ToddEDM: it will ask if you want to accept the key...say yes...it will only ask the first time
[01:26] <LjL> K_Dallas, i'm not very experienced with sound and ALSA to be honest. besides telling you the obvious - i.e. to make sure everything relevant is enabled and set to a medium volume in the system mixer - i'm not sure what to tell you
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: possibley...  you are trying to burn or copy a mounted iso?
[01:26] <scguy318> ToddEDM: well, substitute the IP address for desktopip
[01:26] <Hanyou> Nope I get to <IP_ADDRESS> and connection stops, just on the desktop though. Not the laptop or the 50 windows boxes sitting in the office.
[01:26] <thor> ToddEDM:no..you need the ip address of the desktop....<IP_ADDRESS> or whatever
[01:26] <ToddEDM> hey thor, gimme a sec, i gotta take a piss
[01:26] <ToddEDM> ok
[01:26] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, well interestingly enough i used a cd burned from this image to install into a vm under virtual box before...I just really trashed it...and deleted it ...so I'm starting over
[01:27] <fungz0r> hey whats the best linux internet browser?
[01:27] <fungz0r> firefox?
[01:27] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: ok.. good luck..
[01:27] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, nah...it's on my desktop I copied it from my external last time my laptop was on and I just turned it on...it's not mounted anywhere
[01:27] <Jack_Sparrow> !best
[01:27] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task.  to people who're trying to help sounds arrogant. not stupid, just arrogant.
[01:28] <LjL> fungz0r: all 1152 of us?
[01:28] <fungz0r> haha
[01:28] <fungz0r> if all 1152 is actually here :P
[01:28] <danbhfive> firefox
[01:28] <LjL> !browsers > fungz0r    (fungz0r, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:28] <Hanyou> danbhfive: I'm a MCP and what works, works lol.
[01:29] <Invert314> how do i get my task bar to group simial apps together?
[01:29] <LjL> Invert314: "similar"? how do you define it?
[01:29] <fungz0r> question, how do i get firefox so that when i click on the address bar it is automatically highlighted?
[01:29] <jaydedrag0n_girl> LjL; i'm sorry i was just trying to give the benefit of the doubt... i know i don't always communicate the best
[01:30] <danbhfive> hanyou: do you know how to restart the networking from the CLI?  I believe its sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[01:30] <ToddEDM> whew!!!! im back
[01:30] <Hanyou> danbhfive: Do you think it could be b/c I have two network cards that it is confusing the Linux config?
[01:30] <LjL> danbhfive: that works, although « sudo invoke-rc.d networking restart » is better form
[01:30] <danbhfive> fungz0r: ctrl+L
[01:31] <zstars> How can you display the contents of PATH?
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: The discussion at the end of the article says k3b does burn bootable cd's...
[01:31] <ToddEDM> ok so i need to find the IP of my desktop.. that would be 192.168.1.*** yes?
[01:31] <tuxthepenguin533> #windows
[01:31] <thor> ToddEDM: right
[01:31] <danbhfive> cool
[01:31] <makzu> net
[01:31] <thor> ToddEDM: I am trusting you got the right numbers...but that's the general idea
[01:31] <Invert314> LjL, i mean how do i group all 10 firefox things into one thing?
[01:32] <Invert314> in the panel
[01:32] <jimjam> Is there any way to see *all* files on a computer that have changed in the last x number of days?
[01:32] <fungz0r> well danbhfive, i know that one, but is there a way so that whenver i just click on it, its already highlighted?
[01:32] <Invert314> i need a better word than thing
[01:32] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, that's annoying I read that it doesn't and stopped there...why contradict yourself...that's just bad writing
[01:32] <thor> ToddEDM: the prompt should change to reflect that you are now at a prompt on the desktop
[01:32] <jrib> jimjam: you can use 'find'
[01:32] <ToddEDM> refused connectinon
[01:32] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, or was that in a comment from a user?
[01:32] <n215> how do i setup default gw in startup for nas0 interface that wasnt created yet??
[01:32] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: that was a comment from a user.
[01:32] <thor> ToddEDM: no problem..you need to start sshd...the magic incantation....
[01:32] <Ongaku> hmm well rhythmbox and amarok are acting funny...i can play a song, but when i switch to a different song it freezes
[01:32] <gorilla3d> Is there a way todo a commandline package search?
[01:33] <chetnick> hi guys does anybody use Anjuta on ubuntu? I`m missing Build menu ... maybe few more things ..?
[01:33] <thor> ToddEDM: sudo /usr/sbin/xinetd restart
[01:33] <Hanyou> danbhfive: I tried restarting the networking to no effect.
[01:33] <user1> how to tell alsa to use my creative card (i have 2 cards)
[01:33] <ToddEDM> on desktop ?
[01:33] <thor> ToddEDM: right
[01:33] <Jack_Sparrow> jpastore: I also never said k3b wouldnt, just that there was an easier way to burn bootable iso's
[01:33] <jpastore> Jack_Sparrow, ahhh...well let me give it another go maybe I'll try burning directly from my external...maybe the copy was bad
[01:33] <danbhfive> fungz0r: goto about:config and type in urlbar
[01:33] <Ongaku> i tried reinstalling but to no avail...acting so weird, it´s making me mad >.<
[01:34] <jimjam> jrib: Thanks
[01:34] <LjL> Invert314, i think that happens automatically when it gets too crowded, at least that's what it does in KDE. don't know how to force it to always make it happen
[01:34] <jpastore> brb going to try and reboot and see if the installer starts...maybe virtual box is f'd
[01:34] <jrib> jimjam: -mtime is the switch you want probably
[01:34] <Invert314> ty LjL
[01:34] <Ongaku> anyone know what´s going on? i can play one song, i try to switch to the next and it crashes...
[01:34] <PeteOnline> Anyone know of a website with a really good description of static routing on a standard ipv4 network?  I know this isn't exactly the best place to ask this, but it does involve staticly routing my ubuntu server
[01:35] <jimjam> jrib: I was looking at -ctime, but I can't figure out which order my arguments should go in.
[01:35] <Hanyou> Anyone have any other ideas?
[01:35] <robdig> gorilla3d: apt-cache search package-name-or-keyword
[01:35] <jrib> Invert314: right click on the window list and go to properties/preferences
[01:35] <ToddEDM> whats that second thing you had me install thor
[01:35] <jimjam> jrib: i'm trying sudo find -L -ctime 3 /
[01:35] <jrib> jimjam: you understand how mtime, atime, and ctime differ?
[01:35] <thor> ToddEDM: xinetd runs a bunch of network services like apache and ssh
[01:36] <Invert314> jrib, i see it
[01:36] <Invert314> thanks

[01:37] <thor> ToddEDM: I lack a life
[01:37] <danbhfive> hanyou: im not the most knowledgable about these things, but I have heard that routers can block individual ports
[01:37] <Pici> openmindDJ: Its in the Nautilus preferences.
[01:37] <ToddEDM> haha
[01:37] <openmindDJ> ohh yea....
[01:37] <thor> ToddEDM: and I was lucky enough to find someone to help when I was sitting there where you are <smile>
[01:37] <Ongaku> hmm well rhythmbox and amarok are acting funny...i can play a song, but when i switch to a different song it freezes
[01:37] <ToddEDM> ok i got all that installed on the desktop.. and restarted xinetd
[01:38] <Hanyou> danbhfive: Went through that with the laptop. All that was left when I was done was me to terminal into my Cisco Gateway and rewrite my routing table.
[01:38] <ToddEDM> yeah i thank you thor
[01:38] <jimjam> jrib; Oh! Thanks!
[01:38] <scguy318> ToddEDM: old age and experience :P
[01:38] <thor> ToddEDM: now try ssh to the desktop from the laptop...
[01:38] <thor> remember when it asks to use the pw you have on the desktop...not the laptop
[01:38] <Csaba> i need some help getting trash can and showdesktop on avant dock
[01:38] <openmindDJ> Thanks Pici, can;t believe I forgot that!
[01:39] <ToddEDM> cool i think that worked
[01:39] <thor> ToddEDM: it gets better...stick with me
[01:39] <PeteOnline> or a good irc channel where I could talk to some networking gurus as my question isn't specific to ubuntu...
[01:39] <kakoonia> hey, is there a way to go back to a previouse state of ubuntu?
[01:39] <ToddEDM> haha right on
[01:39] <duende> hiii
[01:39] <kakoonia> restore...
[01:39] <Ongaku> kakoonia: reinstall old one :P lol
[01:39] <duende> jomknjoip
[01:39] <thor> ToddEDM: if you look around you will see you are now on the desktop...you see the desktop file structure. Every command you enter there will occur on teh desktop...not the laptop
[01:39] <duende> mnklnion
[01:39] <ToddEDM> thor , you realize, now i will be looking for you EVERYTIME i have a problem!
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> kakoonia: dont suppose you made any backups
[01:39] <scguy318> kakoonia: like downgrading version? no
[01:40] <Hanyou> danbhfive: I'm pretty swift when it comes to anything PC or Apple related, but this has me tied upside down on a freeway overpass.
[01:40] <jimjam> jrib: Any way I can copy all of those files?
[01:40] <kakoonia> jack
[01:40] <thor> ToddEDM: and most importantly...everything you do is via ssh...and encrypted channel...so it is about as safe as it can get
[01:40] <scguy318> kakoonia: you could clean install but that's not typical meaning of downgrade in the usual sense
[01:40] <ToddEDM> cool
[01:40] <thor> ToddEDM: we will make it a little safer later...
[01:40] <thor> ToddEDM: now...when you are done....type 'exit' and you should return to the laptop prompt
[01:40] <thor> ToddEDM: take your time
[01:40] <jrib> jimjam: you can use -exec cp (see examples in find's man page) or pipe to  xargs cp
[01:41] <jimjam> jrib: Thanks so much
[01:41] <ztomic> I could swear this is caused by the linux-kernel-rt: "There was an error starting GNOME settings daemon... will try to restart the next time you log in." I have two computers that started doing this after upgrading to the real-time kernel. Anyone know what's going on?
[01:41] <kakoonia> im not meaning downgrade, i tried to fix something with my laptop screen, so i did some bad adjustments.. now.. i got some bad things going on reboot and resolution got bad.. so i was wondering if theres a way to go back to a previouse state of this installation that worked fine...
[01:41] <root_> ghgf
[01:41] <stodge> Just installed Gutsy - I thought this version was supposed to have complete/easier support for configuring xorg? I'm still stuck at a refresh rate of 50Hz.
[01:42] <ztomic> Is anyone using the real-time kernel?
[01:42] <danbhfive> stodge: are you using nvidia?
[01:42] <stodge> yes
[01:42] <Jack_Sparrow> stodge: use dpkg-reconfigure and enter the refresh rates for your monitor
[01:42] <danbhfive> there is a bug in the nvidia drivers concerning refresh rates
[01:42] <thor> ToddEDM: remember...you can open several terminals so you can compare what you are doing on the desktop to what you have on the laptop (if you are so inclined)
[01:42] <stodge> compiz works a treat though with minimal work, which was nice
[01:42] <stodge> jack_sparrow: I thought that was supposed to be a thing of the past?
[01:43] <thor> ToddEDM: you can even open several ssh sessions to the desktop...although that would be redundant and repetitive
[01:43] <kakoonia> im not meaning downgrade, i tried to fix something with my laptop screen, so i did some bad adjustments.. now.. i got some bad things going on reboot and resolution got bad.. so i was wondering if theres a way to go back to a previouse state of this installation that worked fine...??
[01:43] <Galatea2> i've got a problem with networking.
[01:43] <ztomic> stodge: I have to edit my xorg.conf to get proper refresh rate.
[01:43] <Jack_Sparrow> stodge: If it dosent setup your hardware you still need to do it manually
[01:43] <ToddEDM> sorry for sounding so newbish, but what am i supposed to do on the desktop?
[01:43] <stodge> :(
[01:43] <thor> ToddEDM: nothing...you do it all from the laptop...that is the point
[01:44] <ToddEDM> yeah thats what i meant
[01:44] <Galatea2> ubuntu is NOT giving itself an ip address, even though i specifically told it to do so
[01:44] <danbhfive> stodge: the nvidia driver scrambles the refresh rate information, so if you are using the driver, the wrong refreshes will get reported
[01:44] <ToddEDM> i just wanan print a doc
[01:44] <stodge> ah ok
[01:44] <danbhfive> stodge: i have the same problem
[01:44] <thor> ToddEDM: for instance, if you type 'mkdir /home/ToddEDM/temp' it will make the directory on the desktop...not on the laptop...even though you are typing on the laptop
[01:44] <scguy318> kakoonia: oh, probably your xorg.conf
[01:44] <PeteOnline> ping
[01:44] <stodge> I have the horiz and vert values set in xorg.conf
[01:44] <Galatea2> pinging doesn't work since it doesnt have an IP
[01:44] <scguy318> kakoonia: you could try doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg to possibly regenerate the default config
[01:44] <Galatea2> everything is just lost
[01:44] <ToddEDM> i want print/my/damn/document
[01:44] <Galatea2> no route to host, etc
[01:44] <ToddEDM> lol
[01:45] <Hanyou> danbhfive: Well, regardless I got it to work on one machine today even if it was just luck.
[01:45] <kakoonia> scguy318
[01:45] <kakoonia>
[01:45] <cyzie> ToddEDM, setup your printer already
[01:45] <cyzie> ?
[01:45] <kakoonia> bahh
[01:45] <thor> ToddEDM: by the end of this evening...you can put your desktop in the closet and let it run there <smile>
[01:45] <ToddEDM> lo
[01:45] <ToddEDM> l
[01:45] <ztomic> danbhfive: I don't think it has anything to do with vid card.... I could be wrong but I don't think so.
[01:45] <tuxthepenguin533> does ubuntu have a registrey
[01:45] <scguy318> tuxthepenguin533: not really
[01:45] <ToddEDM> cyzie:  yes
[01:45] <Galatea2> tuxthepenguin533: no
[01:45] <cyzie> tuxthepenguin533, no
[01:45] <danbhfive> hanyou: yeah, I dont think i can help much more
[01:45] <Marcusklaas> God I love virtualbox
[01:45] <cyzie> ToddEDM, so setup it then, it's easy
[01:45] <scguy318> tuxthepenguin533: GConf is about the closest thing to one, and its hardly a registry
[01:45] <tuxthepenguin533> then where do configs go
[01:45] <ToddEDM> it is
[01:45] <thor> ToddEDM: when you are ready...log out of the desktop
[01:45] <Galatea2> anyone here good with networks?
[01:45] <Pici> scguy318: No. gnome uses a registry-like system called gconf, but its very organized
[01:45] <Pici> tuxthepenguin533: files
[01:45] <scguy318> kakoonia: wut
[01:46] <thor> ToddEDM: and log back in with 'ssh -X ipaddress'
[01:46] <musashi> i want to extract an osx .dmg to get at a graphics file. can i do this in ubuntu?
[01:46] <kakoonia> scguy318 is xserver-xorg a part of the command?
[01:46] <ztomic> Galatea2: just ask.
[01:46] <scguy318> Pici: I meant in the Window sense :)
[01:46] <danbhfive> hanyou: it is interesting, your pings are getting stopped at a certain spot
[01:46] <scguy318> kakoonia: yes
[01:46] <thor> ToddEDM: that is an uppercase X
[01:46] <lukaszz> hi
[01:46] <kakoonia> k
[01:46] <scguy318> kakoonia: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:46] <tuxthepenguin533> whats kde use then like gconf
[01:46] <Hanyou> danbhfive: Don't worry I didn't come in expecting a solution, just a push in the right direction.
[01:46] <lukaszz> Jest tu ktos z polski ? :>
[01:46] <ztomic> So nobody's using real-time?
[01:46] <Pici> !pl | lukaszz
[01:46] <ubotu> lukaszz: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[01:46] <cyzie> thor, what is his problem ?
[01:46] <kakoonia> ill try, thanks\
[01:46] <Pici> tuxthepenguin533: I think it just uses files
[01:46] <Assid> heya
[01:46] <lukaszz> ok
[01:46] <Galatea2> why can't ubuntu just work?
[01:46] <scguy318> kakoonia: after doing that try restarting X
[01:46] <Hanyou> danbhfive: As I said, samn thing with the computer I am typing on right now earlier today. Then, poof, magic it works. Wierd......
[01:46] <musashi> Galatea2, it does for me
[01:47] <thor> cyzie...nothing...we got the printer working and now I am showing him how to control the desktop without having to be in front of it
[01:47] <cyzie> Galatea2, why nto ?
[01:47] <ToddEDM> cyzie:  i want to print a doc. with my desktop... im on my laptop
[01:47] <Assid> is it me,  or does compiz manage to work better with ubuntu/gnome?
[01:47] <PeteOnline> why can't windows just work?
[01:47] <tuxthepenguin533> where do the files get stored
[01:47] <Galatea2> because one moment ago
[01:47] <ToddEDM> no no thor, it hasnt printed yet
[01:47] <ztomic> ...
[01:47] <corruptionoflulz> tuxthepenguin533: everything is in your home dir
[01:47] <cyzie> thor, many ways then, ssh and vnc, rdesktop is a few ways
[01:47] <Galatea2> i was transferring files from this laptop to the computer running ubuntu
[01:47] <Galatea2> through a physical network link
[01:47] <tuxthepenguin533> ok
[01:47] <Galatea2> the next second, i return, and it refuses to connect
[01:47] <cyzie> ToddEDM, easy, 1st ssh to your desktop, do the lp command
[01:47] <thor> ToddEDM: should...you said you found the printer in cups on the laptop...so it should be in the printer menu when you print from a program
[01:47] <PeteOnline> anybody know static routing?
[01:47] <Hanyou> danbhfive: Just wish there was someone in here that knew exactly what my problem was.
[01:48] <Assid> PeteOnline: what about it?
[01:48] <PeteOnline> or a good channel to ask that same question in?
[01:48] <danbhfive> ztomic: i filed a bug report because I couldn't select a valid refresh rate, even though it was in my xorg.cong, and the guy told me it was a bug in the nvidia driver, it sounded like that guy was having the same problem, but for sure, i still cant select a refresh rate  :)
[01:48] <Galatea2> and now using ifconfig -a
[01:48] <Assid> PeteOnline: whats your question on it
[01:48] <Galatea2> my network does not contain an inet entry
[01:48] <Hanyou> PeteOnline: This channel is as good as any go.
[01:48] <PeteOnline> Assid: I've been trying to wrap my head around it basically.  To actually understand it
[01:48] <cyzie> Galatea2, dhcp ?
[01:48] <thor> ToddEDM: the ssh stuff is so you can install and config programs without having to sit in front of the computer...sorry...got ahead of the game
[01:48] <Galatea2> yes
[01:48] <ztomic> danbhfive: hmm... interesting.
[01:48] <Galatea2> "roaming mode"
[01:48] <PeteOnline> I get ip addressing and subnetting and all
[01:48] <Galatea2> and this computer is configured with a static IP
[01:48] <cyzie> Galatea2, do a networking restart
[01:49] <Assid> PeteOnline: very very simple.. think of the destiantion ip address as a destination on a map
[01:49] <ToddEDM> thor:  thats ok... that was good info
[01:49] <Galatea2> how do i do that?
[01:49] <Assid> the route itself as different routes to that location
[01:49] <cyzie> Galatea2, /etc/init.d/networking restart in root
[01:49] <AutoMatriX> just updated GPSD ... gpsdrive don't work no more
[01:49] <thor> ToddEDM: if you open the document on your laptop, when you go to print it, you should find the network printer on the drop down menu
[01:49] <ToddEDM> ok i see the printer when im printing from openoffice
[01:49] <Assid> if you hve a multi homed network, then you basically choose which netwrok you want to use to reach that destination
[01:49] <ToddEDM> yes i see it thor
[01:49] <lukaszz> hi
[01:49] <thor> ToddEDM: ok...does it print?
[01:49] <Galatea2> okay let's see now
[01:49] <lukaszz> i need help
[01:49] <ToddEDM> no, it sits in queue
[01:50] <Galatea2> nope, still not there
[01:50] <PeteOnline> I understand the idea behind static routing, but the way you enter static routes on most consumer grade routers confuses me
[01:50] <lukaszz> how to get more bright  in ubuntu  ?
[01:50] <Hanyou> PeteOnline: Go to https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/networking-enable.html#networking-enable-nm
[01:50] <Assid> if you wanna go to florida from newyork, then you choose a route for the whole state of florida.. and not just cape canaveral
[01:50] <thor> ToddEDM: is it in the queue on the laptop or the desktop?
[01:50] <Laney> Does anyone know why my display still suspends after 10 minutes even though I've turned it off in Screensaver and Power Management? It's quite annoying when watching videos (shouldn't video players disable this anyway?)
[01:50] <ToddEDM> haha it woulda been funny if i said YA IT PRINTS
[01:50] <thor> ToddEDM: use the 'lpq' command on both machines
[01:50] <billy> anybody have some extensive knowledge about windows?
[01:50] <Galatea2> in fact, now i can't even select the radio button in the network menu near the clock thing
[01:50] <Ongaku> rhythmbox keeps on crashing when i manually select a song...anyone know wtf is up with it?
[01:50] <Hanyou> PeteOnline: That is the Ubuntu Documentation on manual config and such.
[01:50] <Assid> PeteOnline: just read up on subnet masks.. that should easily clear it for you
[01:50] <ToddEDM> lpq: error - no default destination available.
[01:50] <AutoMatriX> anybody who uses gpsd ?
[01:50] <cyzie> Galatea2, i have never get any porblem on that
[01:51] <Galatea2> (the radio button which corresponds with my network)
[01:51] <thor> ToddEDM: was that on the desktop or the laptop?
[01:51] <Galatea2> well maybe you're lucky :(
[01:51] <jaydedrag0n_girl> billy: can i ask why you are asking about windows in the ubuntu channel?
[01:51] <ToddEDM> both
[01:51] <billy> just wondering :p
[01:51] <cyzie> Galatea2, not lucky u dumb
[01:51] <thor> ToddEDM: you can print from the desktop, right?
[01:51] <billy> cause my windows isnt booting
[01:51] <PriceChild> !windows | billy
[01:51] <ubotu> billy: For discussion and help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[01:51] <ToddEDM> yes
[01:51] <cyzie> Galatea2, cehck in network setting in /etc/
[01:51] <scott__> I am brand new to Ubuntu.  I have been running PCLinuxOS for about 9 months.  I'm having some issues with Grub.  Is this the right place to ask for help?
[01:51] <Galatea2> how so?
[01:51] <Assid> okay so, does compiz somehow work better on gnome for some stupid reason? or is that just me
[01:51] <PeteOnline> I have read up on subnet masks, how it bitwise masks the ip address to discern the network portion and the host portion, etc
[01:51] <jaydedrag0n_girl> billy: is it not in your grub menu?
[01:51] <Galatea2> you see, if i was to connect to it wirelessly though the house's router, it connects to my shared folder almost instantly
[01:52] <cyzie> Galatea2, what do YOU mean how ?
[01:52] <billy> well its in the menu
[01:52] <billy> when when i boot it
[01:52] <ToddEDM> yup... im printing a test doc right now thor
[01:52] <Galatea2> well, what do you want me to check, cyzie?
[01:52] <billy> it loads the welcome page, then restarts
[01:52] <ToddEDM> from the Desktop
[01:52] <thor> ToddEDM: from the desktop, right?
[01:52] <ToddEDM> yes
[01:52] <ztomic> no help on GNOME Settings Manager?
[01:52] <Galatea2> it's just weird how it's not the same for when you use a physical connection
[01:52] <Torahteen> Anyone here know how to use rn?
[01:52] <ztomic> I need a guru
[01:52] <thor> ToddEDM: when it is done...try printing the test document from the laptop using cups
[01:52] <jaydedrag0n_girl> billy: when you load into ubuntu and check the file directories.. is everything seemingly in order? or are your folders empty?
[01:53] <cyzie> Galatea2, go to /etc/network check the interfaces entry
[01:53] <PeteOnline> well lemme try this question: I have an ubuntu server behind a router and I want to give it an external static ip through the router
[01:53] <thor> ToddEDM: and you did add the network printer on the laptop using cups, right?
[01:53] <cyzie> Galatea2, dont enable wireless and ethernet at the same time
[01:53] <Torahteen> If I want to start reading usenet posts on a certain server, how would I set up "rn" to do this? I want to connect to news://freenews.netfront.net
[01:53] <billy> everything is still there for my windows files
[01:53]  * ^garfield2^ is away (I am Off Line Now...)
[01:53] <Ongaku> rhythmbox keeps on crashing when i manually select a song...anyone know wtf is up with it?
[01:53] <ztomic> PeteOnline: DMZ
[01:53] <billy> but when i boot into windows, it just restarts at welcome page
[01:53] <ToddEDM> thor the printer was there  already, i didnt manually add it ...and the test page i tried... is just sitting in queue
[01:54] <Galatea2> well i can't exactly disable wireless
[01:54] <scguy318> Ongaku: hmm, sometimes my VLC crashes when I spawn Open File dialog
[01:54] <thor> ToddEDM: from the laptop?
[01:54] <scguy318> Ongaku: coincidence?
[01:54] <Hanyou> Anyone know how to setup a Dell Laserjet to a gutsy install that is networking. I tried the Samba browser and I couldn't find it. Would manually entering it in do the trick?
[01:54] <Ongaku> scguy318: heh
[01:54] <PeteOnline> already being used for another device, and I can't seem to DMZ 2 hosts
[01:54] <Galatea2> because what else can i enable, since i can't select anything apart from wireless
[01:54] <jaydedrag0n_girl> billy: did this just happen when you installed ubuntu... or was this previously working and then stopped suddenly
[01:54] <scguy318> Ongaku: try running from terminal and see what error messages u get
[01:54] <thor> ToddEDM: the test print you sent from the desktop worked OK, right?
[01:54] <billy> it wasnt working before i installed ubuntu
[01:54] <cyzie> Galatea2, why cant u disable wireless?
[01:55] <PeteOnline> i'm using a linksys wrt54g with dd-wrt firmware on it
[01:55] <Ongaku> scguy318: i ran this gdb thing and i got this Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[01:55] <cyzie> Galatea2, u can either disable physically or through the OS
[01:55] <netsrot> what is this "partition has been mounted several times check forced"?
[01:55] <jaydedrag0n_girl> billy: okay windows was already broken before you installed ubuntu i have this correct?
[01:55] <Galatea2> okay i'll do that
[01:55] <ztomic> PeteOnline: nope. you can't do two. but you may forward from other server or set up individual ports from the router.
[01:55] <Hanyou> billy: Then please refer to Microsoft Knowledge Base or call their customer support.
[01:55] <Galatea2> interfaces has
[01:55] <ToddEDM> thor, it ws just an emaikl i had up.. it printed fine
[01:55] <Galatea2> auto lo
[01:55] <Galatea2> iface lo inet loopback
[01:55] <Galatea2> is that normal?
[01:55] <thor> ToddEDM: ok....first let's clear the queue...on both machines type 'cancel -a' in a terminal
[01:55] <AutoMatriX> got a problem with gpsd ... can anyone help ?
[01:55] <PeteOnline> ztomic: you wouldn't happen to know why that is, would you?
[01:56] <thor> ToddEDM: you can use an ssh shell on the laptop if you like instead of going to the desktop
[01:56] <Ongaku> scguy318: segmentation fault....
[01:56] <noobynoob> is it possible to install ubuntu to fat32
[01:56] <cyzie> Galatea2, after that 2 lines, there are no anymore below ?
[01:56] <ztomic> PeteOnline: because DMZ is designed for quick and easy.
[01:56] <Galatea2> by the way, what is eth0-avah?
[01:56] <billy> Jaydedragon yeah it was broken before i installed ubuntu
[01:56] <thor> noobynoob: no
[01:56] <Galatea2> that's all there is in interface
[01:56] <noobynoob> y
[01:56] <noobynoob> y
[01:57] <Ongaku> what can i do? uninstall reinstall  or what...
[01:57] <jaydedrag0n_girl> billy: than yes you will need to find a windows channel or referr to microsoft support.. research it on google.. call a friend .. or call microsoft
[01:57] <cyzie> wrong entry Galatea2
[01:57] <khin> hi, whenever i try to do a sudo command with & it just skips over the password prompt and cancels the command, how do i do this
[01:57] <thor> ToddEDM: once you have both queues cleared...open cups on the laptop and go to the Printers tab
[01:57] <cyzie> that is why your networking fuckup
[01:57] <Galatea2> heh yeah
[01:57] <cyzie> Galatea2, what did u do ?
[01:57] <Galatea2> it's /etc/network/interface, right?
[01:57] <Galatea2> nothing
[01:57] <noobynoob> were allowed to swear
[01:57] <cyzie> Galatea2, no
[01:57] <Galatea2> as i said, i returned and then it wouldn't work
[01:57] <jaydedrag0n_girl> no not really
[01:57] <cyzie> it's /etc/network/interfaces
[01:57] <billy> oh ok
[01:58] <Galatea2> well yes that's what i meant
[01:58] <PeteOnline> ztomic: so would I be able to do the same / similar thing with static routing?
[01:58] <ToddEDM> thor:  its asking for the password on my desktop... it wont take it

[01:58] <thor> ToddEDM: give it your password....
[01:58] <Galatea2> would it be possible to rebuild it?
[01:58] <ToddEDM> password for roxanne on localhost..... i type it, and it just keeps asking me
[01:58] <danbhfive> I'm trying it out myself atm

[01:59] <robdig> msgthebot | noobynoob
[01:59] <thor> ToddEDM: your wife is a second account on the computer?
[01:59] <ztomic> PeteOnline: never tried it, but I bet it would be more difficult than setting the router to forward port ranges or specific ports.
[01:59] <Galatea2> where could a location of such file be found?
[01:59] <scott__> I have had a working install of PCLinuxOS on what would be in Windows Terms my Primary Master HD.  I wanted to try some other Linux Distros withour giving up PCLOS until I found something I like better.  When I tried to install Fedora 8 onto a new HD located as secondary slave, the Fedora installer screwed up my GRUB and computer wouldn't boot.  Fedora screws up Grub every time I've tried it.  So I wiped Fedora and i
[01:59] <scott__> nstalled Ubuntu 7.04.  Ubuntu works fine but I can't boot into my PCLOS system.  I get Error 11 Unrecognized device string.  Can anyone help me fix this please?
[01:59] <noobynoob> ! msgthebot | noobynoob
[01:59] <ToddEDM> thor:  ok that worked
[01:59] <cyzie> Galatea2, have u ask google?
[01:59] <danbhfive> Hanyou: well, hehe, I don't know,  I'm a total noob at this, but im using wireshark,     It just seemed like a next step for you
[01:59] <Galatea2> i'll do it now
[01:59] <ToddEDM> thor, yes, but i believe i gave her admin privleges
[01:59] <cyzie> Galatea2, u can type my name, so easier to see here
[02:00] <danbhfive> watch the packets from another computer
[02:00] <thor> ToddEDM: ok...clear the queue on the laptop as well...
[02:00] <ToddEDM> hold on
[02:00] <PeteOnline> ztomic: unfortunatley, the same port is going to be used on 2 different machines behind the router
[02:00] <thor> ToddEDM: then open cups in the browser on the laptop
[02:00] <Hanyou> danbhfive: I will try that, though I doubt it will help me much.
[02:00] <ztomic> PeteOnline: thats a predicament.
[02:00] <ToddEDM> hold on a sec... walmart photo just called , i gotta call my wifey
[02:00] <Galatea2> cyzie: if this interfaces file was so bankrupt of information, why was it able to accomdate my wireless card?
[02:00] <thor> ToddEDM:k
[02:00] <cyzie> Galatea2, /usr/share/doc/ppp/examples/interfaces
[02:00] <johnnybezak> anyone know if these internet problems with gutsy are being fixed - cos mine is stuffed and the ipv6 stuff doesn't help.
[02:00] <ToddEDM> l
[02:00] <ToddEDM> ol
[02:01] <PeteOnline> ztomic: I have a small block of static ip addresses that I can use, I just can't figure out how to use them through a router
[02:01] <Marcusklaas> Nice I emulated Vista with virtualbox
[02:01] <cyzie> Galatea2, i have no idea how is your setup and what u going to do with it. you youself dont know what u are doing and that is dangerous
[02:01] <scguy318> Marcusklaas: no Aero tho :P
[02:01] <thor> Marcusklaas: now...can you emulate a more serious disease <smile>
[02:01] <Marcusklaas> aero = ??
[02:01] <ztomic> PeteOnline: put a switch between the modem and the router. set up the servers on the switch and the other computers on the router.
[02:01] <scguy318> Marcusklaas: the fancy Vista 3D
[02:01] <Marcusklaas> oh lol :(
[02:02] <ToddEDM> thor:  ok cups is open on the laptop
[02:02] <scguy318> Marcusklaas: 3D typically doesn't work on VMs, hard to virtualize
[02:02] <ToddEDM> test page , no working
[02:02] <thor> ToddEDM: ok...on the Printers tab....
[02:02] <scguy318> Marcusklaas: VMware is the only thing that has basically beta support
[02:02] <Csaba> i need some help getting trash can and showdesktop on avant dock, anyone??
[02:02] <Hanyou> This is honestly about to make me cry.
[02:02] <ToddEDM> ok
[02:02] <Marcusklaas> i heard there's a very lean version of ubuntu of vmware integrated .. liek 300 MBs big
[02:02] <thor> set printer options
[02:02] <ToddEDM> ok
[02:02] <thor> ToddEDM: make sure they are ok
[02:03] <cyzie> thor, how do u know if ToddEDM know how to make sure? he is newbie
[02:03] <ToddEDM> controlled by printout mode....
[02:03] <thor> cyzie...they are page length and such...would be specific to his setup
[02:04] <PeteOnline> ztomic: I was thinking of doing that, but I also need to use it locally, inside the router
[02:04] <ToddEDM> it all looks good thor
[02:04] <ToddEDM> error policy is retry-job
[02:04] <tuxthepenguin533> !logs
[02:04] <thor> ToddEDM: on the printers tab also check the line 'Printer State' it should say 'idle, accepting jobs'

[02:04] <cyzie> thor, ok, i hope he know
[02:04] <PeteOnline> I have /etc/network/interfaces set up with a virtual interface for the second ip address
[02:04] <Grav3Mind> can anyone recommend a good screen video capture program for ubuntu?
[02:04] <Marcusklaas> hey scguy318: can i do the glassy window look tho?
[02:04] <ztomic> PeteOnline: that's where you're gonna have to set up static routing and I don't know how.
[02:04] <cyzie> Marcusklaas, yes
[02:04] <thor> cyzie...they aren;t real important right now...would just mess up the format
[02:04] <Marcusklaas> ah cool
[02:04] <Marcusklaas> where can i configure that?
[02:04] <thor> cyzie...I wanted him to know they are there
[02:04] <PeteOnline> in interfaces?
[02:05] <Galatea2> right.
[02:05] <cyzie> thor, hehe. yes, show the kiddie
[02:05] <ToddEDM> yes also it says published thor
[02:05] <robdig> Grav3Mind: applications->accessories->take screen shot
[02:05] <thor> ToddEDM: good...then it should be working. When you click on Print Test Page does it give an error?
[02:05] <Grav3Mind> VIDEO
[02:05] <Grav3Mind> not screen shot
[02:05] <PeteOnline> ztomic: i have that figured out, my question is more on the router's side, which I realise isn't really this channel's purpose
[02:05] <robdig> Grav3Mind: ah...you did say video, my apologies...don't know there
[02:06] <ToddEDM> ok i see something i idnt notice before, which i shoulda, its in big bold type ....Unable to connect to CIFS host, will retry in 60 seconds...
[02:06] <Grav3Mind> lol sorry robdig....
[02:06] <thor> ToddEDM: really...that means it can't get to the desktop...are you running firewalls?
[02:06] <cyzie> Galatea2, good to go now ?
[02:06] <kn4rF> it's possible to run keyboard events from bash terminal?
[02:06] <ztomic> PeteOnline: yeah, i hear you. I'v never done it. probably set your servers up to receive from IP and the router to static route to an ip. I dunno.
[02:06] <thor> ToddEDM:...wait...check this....
[02:07] <ToddEDM> thor, maybe on my router
[02:07] <thor> ToddEDM: on the printers tab...click on Modify Printer
[02:07] <Galatea2> nope
[02:07] <Galatea2> is it possible
[02:07] <cyzie> Galatea2, ?
[02:07] <Galatea2> that i just add my own entry
[02:07] <thor> ToddEDM: no...the router would only be firewalled to the internet
[02:07] <kn4rF> Galatea2, how?
[02:07] <cyzie> Galatea2, yes
[02:07] <ToddEDM> k
[02:07] <ArthurArchnix> I'm looking at an emacs interface for the first time because i want to learn to use 'r' and I'm told ESS (emacs speaks statistics) is the way to go, but I am really displeased with the display. It looks bad, like what gnucash looked like in Feisty. Any ideas on improving font rendering, at the very least?
[02:07] <thor> ToddEDM:click on Modify Printer, then Click on Continue...
[02:07] <PeteOnline> ztomic: yeah, I think we both have the same level of knowledge on this, neither of us know how to do static routing on the router.  blind leading the blind and all
[02:07] <Grav3Mind> anyone know of a good VIDEO screen capture program
[02:08] <Galatea2> like, i'd just write iface eth0 inet static
[02:08] <ztomic> hehe
[02:08] <mark_> whats a good lightweight Mplayer GUI?
[02:08] <Galatea2> this shouldnt be happening though
[02:08] <ToddEDM> thor ok
[02:08] <Galatea2> ubuntu is just meant to work without a hitch
[02:08] <Marcusklaas> and it does
[02:08] <cyzie> Galatea2, yes, then u need to insert the ip ssubnet mask and gw
[02:08] <thor> ToddEDM: Make sure the device is right...I think it should be AppSocket/HP Direct
[02:08] <Galatea2> yeah
[02:08] <stodge> Any ideas what I'm missing:  undefined reference to `XPending'
[02:08] <neko> hi
[02:08] <kn4rF> no1 knows?
[02:08] <vee_> Hi. does anyone have a minute to answer some Ub. Ser. 7.10 questions?
[02:08] <ToddEDM> thor:  it was windows printer via samba
[02:09] <ToddEDM> i changed it
[02:09] <cyzie> Galatea2, yes, ubuntu work out of the box unless u go mess it up and that u dont know what u are doin
[02:09] <danbhfive> !ask | vee_
[02:09] <ubotu> vee_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:09] <thor> ToddEDM: you may have to play with those to see which driver works
[02:09] <vee_> hehe
[02:09] <neko> i have a problem. when i move icons on desktops , it makes copy instead of just move it
[02:09] <vee_> thanx
[02:09] <ToddEDM> ok np
[02:09] <vee_> first involves RAID 1
[02:09] <vee_> I used my BIOS to set up a RAID 1
[02:09] <vladc> Hi, I can't boot Ubuntu 7.10 a 500Mhz G3 iMac because the machine will power off 3 seconds after yaboot. I tried passing "video=ofonly", but that results in an empty black screen.
[02:09] <thor> ToddEDM: I am running a Canon iP90 on ubuntu and that is what I needed for my laptop
[02:09] <Galatea2> well i didn't touch anything at all!
[02:09] <kelsin> ArthurArchnix: you can install emacs 23 from http://peadrop.com/blog/2007/01/06/pretty-emacs/
[02:10] <vee_> I was hoping this would make things easier.
[02:10] <Galatea2> this is frustrating. ubuntu isn't meant to destroy the network after i leave for a few minutes
[02:10] <thor> ToddEDM: once you have it changed (try the AppSocket) click continue and see if the device url is OK
[02:10] <vee_> When I went to install 7.10 - it saw two disks instead of 1
[02:10] <thor> ToddEDM: oops...hold on
[02:10] <vee_> So I choose the first
[02:10] <Hanyou> How do you go about disabling a piece of hardware in your system?
[02:10] <ztomic> PeteOnline: you may be able to install extra nic's on the servers and connect them to the router but that defeats the purpose of wide area network.
[02:10] <scott__> Can anyone help me with my GRUB issue, or point me to a GRUB support channel please?
[02:11] <cyzie> Galatea2, no it wont, i been running ubuntu like >100 days, no problem on my networking
[02:11] <ArthurArchnix> kelsin: Beauty. Thanks.
[02:11] <PeteOnline> I wasn't really expecting anyone here to know static routing, I was more hoping someone knew a good irc channel I could go bug
[02:11] <IndyGunFreak> scott__: whats your issue?
[02:11] <thor> ToddEDM: no...it should be Windows/Samba...I was looking at the wrong machine...sorry
[02:11] <Galatea2> but why am i the unfortunate one?
[02:11] <ztomic> extra cost too but nics are cheap
[02:11] <vee_> installation said it was finished and now- I have the reboot and selct proper Boot Device...message
[02:11] <cyzie> if u are not the one who is change it, then have u look into other possiblity?
[02:11] <thor> ToddEDM: on the next page you should see the device url
[02:11] <vee_> what did I do wrong?
[02:11] <cyzie> like software that change it ?
[02:11] <PeteOnline> yeah, i might just do that in the end, but static routing through the router and locking down that specific ip address would be best
[02:11] <ToddEDM> ok
[02:11] <brian994> DCC SEND "itsabeautifuldaythesunisshiningifeelgoodnobodyisgoingtoletmedown" 0 0 0 0 0
[02:12] <neko> nobody have an idea ?
[02:12] <danbhfive> PeteOnline, don't the linksys routers have good config software, which handles all that?
[02:12] <thor> make sure the device url is something like...'smb://192.168.1.xxx/name' where name is the name of the printer
[02:12] <scott__> I had PCLOS on my primary HD.  I added another HD and installed ubuntu.  Ubuntu works but i can't boot into my PCLOS.  I get Error 11 unrecognized device string
[02:12] <ToddEDM> thor smb://MSHOME/PC-HOME/printer
[02:12] <ToddEDM> hmmmm
[02:12] <Galatea2> why does eth0 broadcast an ipv6 address, but not an ipv4?
[02:12] <thor> ToddEDM: nope...your desktop is linux, right?
[02:12] <PeteOnline> danbhfive: I'm using dd-wrt, custom firmware installed on a linksys
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> scott__: when grub loads, i presume its when you boot your ubuntu drive first, right?
[02:12] <ToddEDM> yeah!!
[02:12] <danbhfive> i see
[02:12] <ToddEDM> usd to be windows
[02:12] <Galatea2> and what's the difference between eth0 and eth0:avah
[02:13] <kelsin> ArthurArchnix: you can install the emacs-snapshot-gtk official package just to get gtk widgets, but that package from that blog also includes nice XFT font support
[02:13] <scott__> The working Grub is on the new hard drive
[02:13] <cyzie> Galatea2, fix yoru problem first.
[02:13] <thor> ToddEDM: is the desktop named MSHOME?
[02:13] <plamo> Query: Gparted doesn't let me unmount my /dev/sda1 hard drive because other things are mounted to the same point, how do I get it so I can unmount it?
[02:13] <ToddEDM> thor: no
[02:13] <cyzie> Galatea2,  u are running away from your own problem
[02:13] <ToddEDM> its wrong
[02:13] <Galatea2> well i've tried everything including setting my network to DHCP inside interfaces
[02:13] <thor> ToddEDM: right...you need to change that...smb://ipaddress/name
[02:13] <scott__> I boot up and I get a grub menu to choose my OS.  Ubuntu and PCLOS are both on the list
[02:13] <thor> ToddEDM: ipaddress is the ipaddress of the desktop, and name is the name you put into Samba on the desktop
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> scott__: ok, can you browse the old drive, and look at the grub menu config?  IF so, it will tell you what parameters it was using, and you can just set those perameters inside Ubuntu's grub menu.lst,
[02:13] <Galatea2> I am literally lost for ideas
[02:14] <danbhfive> vee_ i have no idea, but, I'm gona send you a webpage
[02:14] <vee_> ok
[02:14] <danbhfive> !raid > vee_
[02:14] <thor> ToddEDM: sorry about this...I am usually better <smile>
[02:14] <scott__> ok.  I'll try that.  Thanks.
[02:14] <ToddEDM> hey thhis is great thor thanks
[02:14] <ztomic> PeteOnline: try some other channels... these guys are pretty specific in here. If it aint ubuntu, they don't know.
[02:14] <ToddEDM> ok the mane i put in samba.......
[02:14] <ToddEDM> name
[02:14] <Galatea2> okay
[02:14] <Galatea2> this is strange
[02:14] <thor> ToddEDM: once you have the url set, click continue
[02:14] <Galatea2> interfaces is now devoid of the entry i put in, and saved
[02:15] <thor> ToddEDM:choose the printer and click continue
[02:15] <vee_> yes- i went to that site already -- doesnt cover 71.0
[02:15] <ToddEDM> i dont know thqat name i put in samba
[02:15] <vee_> 71.0
[02:15] <ztomic> or just don't care
[02:15] <PeteOnline> ztomic: I tried networking, but it was like talking to a room full of statues
[02:15] <Galatea2> that definitely isn't normal.
