[06:14] <kaptengu> is it possible to see which kernel modules my memory card reader uses?
[06:14] <verb> fc, did you try System>>Preferences>>Network Proxy   ?
[06:14] <bulmer> Ashfire908: well, as i've suggested, make your ubuntu the router (which will do the ppp ) and have another nic card and hub to run dhcp on ubunt to share with other pc's
[06:14] <endo> after I re-install audacious i'll let you know

[06:14] <bluebanana> I have 2 moniters plugged into my video card, and they both show the same thing. How can I have a dual-monitor setup that essentially gives me an expansion of my desktop, if you know what I mean (rather than just 2 duplicates)?
[06:14] <jrib> }}Y2J{{: best to just ask the channel your next question and see if anyone knows the answer
[06:15] <fc> no, the university has a seperate inetkey program where i enter the password

[06:15] <hegur1> kaptengu: dmesg should show you the module name
[06:15] <Ashfire908> bulmer, i really don't want to use the computer as the router. it's actually a rack server and it makes a ton of noise, and most likey uses a lot of power
[06:15] <endo> jrib: It's saying I should check the permissions when I try to install it
[06:16] <karel> is it normal that gnome-panel is using 50% cpu all the time?
[06:16] <jrib> endo: wait, I didn't say install it.  Install it from the terminal with 'sudo dpkg -i /path/to/virtualbox/deb'
[06:16] <vcool> karel: do u run a lot of background process ?
[06:16] <Strang3love> hello all

[06:19] <Strang3love> i have just received an update for gutsy gibbon and upon reboot i am unable to load any or my partitions, the grub comes up but it is unable to load selected partition.  Does anyone know where to find the config file that indicates the locations in grub (hd0,0) for instance.
[06:19] <erik78s1> I've got 2 identical laptops (packard bell easynote mz35-v-091). One of them kept getting completely stuck once I installed Ubuntu 7.04. I replaced the hardware in the store (the whole thing) - but the same thing occured on the "new" one. I've tried running on "koppix" too, and the same thing happens. It runs winXP (*shrug*) just fine, no lock-ups at all... I'm deep in this shit,

[06:40] <Rade> erik78sl - My recommendation is to use xubuntu instead if you really need low memory usage, KDE has a big overhead in comparison
[06:40] <erik78s1> I know there is xunbuntu... but anyway
[06:41] <mindframe> what's a good utility to monitor cpu temperature?
[06:41] <USMarine> mindframe ksensors
[06:41] <Rade> Well, you can check out the services manager and turn stuff of
[06:41] <erik78s1> yes, but maybe there is someway to reduce the ubutu thing too... xunbutu is too far stretched for me =)
[06:41] <WoahWoah> services manager?
[06:41] <mindframe> user01, anything in xubuntu?
[06:41] <mindframe> err USMarine, anything in xubuntu?
[06:41] <fc> thanx a million verb, i think it's working now
[06:41] <USMarine> erik78s1 gnome has less features than kde, still it uses the sames resources
[06:42] <USMarine> mindframe nop, i never touched that in my life
[06:42] <verb> fc, did you update your system properly
[06:42] <verb> ?
[06:42] <Rade> Ever since upgrading (full re-install) to Feisty I've had a problem with my network connection.  Pages won't load the first time, I have to refresh multiple times to get the page, stylesheets, etc.
[06:42] <verb> fc, I mean succeeded in doing that?
[06:42] <endo> I need to un-install audacious, what's the command?
[06:43] <Rade> apt-get remove audacious
[06:43] <USMarine> endo apt-get remove package
[06:43] <Rade> well, sudo apt...
[06:43] <endo> oh, it is apt-get
[06:43] <endo> ok
[06:43] <fc> i saved that file and when i go to add programs it actually downloads the new list
[06:43] <erik78s1> ... or "sudo aptitude remove <packagename>"
[06:43] <fc> and it says new updates available
[06:43] <Rade> is aptitude and apt-get the same thing?
[06:43] <verb> fc, so you've noticed that he discovered the new list right?
[06:44] <fc> yes
[06:44] <verb> fc, good
[06:44] <verb> :)
[06:44] <faust_> Rade, they split ages ago. apt-get was created to test new features for aptitude.
[06:44] <endo> brb, gotta restart
[06:44] <fc> thanx so much
[06:44] <faust_> These days, apt-get is deprecated. Even Debian has gone back to aptitude.
[06:44] <WoahWoah> None of the processes seemed to have been stopped...
[06:44] <faust_> Some apt-get features are missing, but all essential features are working the same way in aptitude as in apt-get.
[06:45] <verb> fc, no problem .....in fact this exact problem was thw same one I've had when I first used ubuntu ...Good luck :)

[07:15] <bluebanana> ArmedKing: So which should I use? I want to make use of mulitple monitors in such a way that I expand my deskops.
[07:15] <hbons_> hi
[07:15] <bluebanana> Should I use xinerama or bigdesktop?
[07:15] <ArmedKing> bluebanana: Then i should advise Xinerama
[07:15] <ArmedKing> bluebanana: Your taskbar remains on your main screen and the other monitor is just extra space
[07:16] <bluebanana> ArmedKing: I believe you are wrong about Nvidia's TwinView. Though it may sound like all it does is give you 2 exact clones, twinview doesn't just do that. It allows you to do more: http://www.nvidia.com/object/feature_twinview.html
[07:16] <ckh> does anyone has any experience with the Hula Project? and; is there any softwarepackage for it in Ubuntu?

[07:20] <Johnson> anyone know whi can do to fix it?
[07:20] <bluebanana> ArmedKing: and one of those cards in your pc is simply to allow 2 more video outputs?
[07:20] <ArmedKing> bluebanana: Nope only 2 at the moment

[07:24] <prabhupada> but i've seen screenshots where it actually shows on the side of the desktop
[07:24] <orangefly> can someone help with sound in vmware on fiesty running xp....???....
[07:24] <MasterShrek> prabhupada, u are talking about screenlets
[07:24] <prabhupada> yeah i think so. :P
[07:24] <prabhupada> i'm not 100% sure though
[07:25] <MasterShrek> orangefly, i dont think sound works through vmware, at least it never used to
[07:25] <Ubuntu-Virgin> anybody know how to reenable Desktop Effects when it gives you the Error "Desktop Effects could not be enalbed" ?
[07:25] <mooper> mboldisc: http://rafb.net/p/yYRCfZ46.html

[07:26] <cimon> Hi! What is the status on that ACPI thing generally?
[07:26] <MasterShrek> !ntfs-3g | neophyte
[07:26] <ubotu> neophyte: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[07:26] <prabhupada> the sticky note and stuff in that screenshot is what i'm talking about
[07:26] <matux> hi, I have a problem with my audio recording settings, the sound recorder returns "invalid parameters" when I want to save a file
[07:27] <narothepharoh> MasterShrek you have answered my questions before why is nobody answering me ive been asking here for a while it seems the past week nobody will answer
[07:27] <orangefly> i am going to try....thought it would be easier with vmware plus i need xp for a few things at work....
[07:27] <heguru> orangefly: sound DOES work with qemu
[07:27] <mooper> orangefly vmware is easy!
[07:27] <MasterShrek> narothepharoh, i was afk until a couple minutes ago, whats the problem?
[07:27] <Usrl_> Can someone please recommend me a torrent client? Azureus works with encryption on, but it randomly crashes which makes it completely unusable. Everything else I've tried doesn't even work. I'm on comcast, and I know they block bittorrent upload traffic, which is why I need the encyrption
[07:27] <heguru> orangefly: and with KVM (if you have a new processor) its much faster as well
[07:27] <Usrl_> So does anyone have any ideas for a client that might WORK?
[07:27] <matux> I can play sounds, but I can't record them
[07:27] <mooper> Usrl_: ktorrent
[07:27] <MasterShrek> Usrl_, transmission, or utorrent with wine
[07:27] <MasterShrek> or ktorrent
[07:27] <Usrl_> mooper: tried it
[07:27] <neophyte> iubotu i just need to know the sudo command thank you

[07:34] <scaldov> hmhowie, by the way, the same picture have been recently observed while connecting to FreeBSD ssh server
[07:34] <jshriver> How do you run the  Ubuntu X autoconfigure?
[07:34] <jshriver> so it detects the video card, etc?
[07:34] <heguru> matux: System -> preference -> Sound, then click at Sounds and uncheck "Enable software sound mixing (ESD)"
[07:35] <heguru> matux: if it doesn't work already, then restart the machine (ESD locks the sound device some times)

[07:44] <heguru> roid: wrong
[07:44] <verb> roid, wrong
[07:44] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> I would be very suprised if that were true ^^
[07:44] <Pelo> roid, it would be a little sitty and defeate the purpose of passwords
[07:44] <roid> ok cool, i just installed and wanted to be sure, i heard rumors
[07:44] <verb> roid, it's encrypted
[07:44] <scaldov> hmhowie, And I make a connection directly by IP, directly to the mothership

[07:45] <heguru> MasterShrek: configure reverse lookup
[07:46] <fei_>
[07:46] <Pelo> endo,  don'T do that , use menu > system > admin > software sources instead
[07:46] <MasterShrek> ?
[07:46] <Pelo> fei,  what is wrong ?
[07:46] <scaldov> hmhowie Can I paste config to you?
[07:46] <endo> Pelo: fine
[07:46] <verb> koer, he meant / did you change the repositories
[07:46] <koer> dont think so
[07:46] <fei_>
[07:46] <heguru> koer: are you using feisty? or gutsy?
[07:46] <Pelo> endo,  basicaly if you have to ask how/where to manualy edit a file you are probably safer using a dialog box
[07:47] <hmhowie> scaldov: i doubt i can help, if it's a configuration problem. have a look at the routing as well on both computers ("route")
[07:47] <koer> feisty
[07:47] <verb> heguru, he said feisty
[07:47] <Tohru> anyone know how i can restore windows boot sector using ubuntu terminal?
[07:47] <verb> Tohru, you mean boot loader?
[07:48] <ckh> Tohru, you should look into the coroners tool kit they have all the tools needed to perform that type of operation
[07:48] <Tohru> verb: if that is what can fix windows to boot then yes :)
[07:48] <heguru> koer: ok your application requires libc6 2.6 while the one that comes with feisty is 2.5
[07:48] <Tohru> ckh: where can i find that please?
[07:48] <koer> so that marked update isnt for feisty ?
[07:48] <heguru> koer: you must have configured a non feisty repository
[07:48] <Pelo> Tohru, did you uninstall ubuntu and need to restore windows mbr ?
[07:48] <verb> Tohru, didn't you get windows listed in the grub loader?
[07:49] <endo> Pelo: I know what you mean, I just have the hardest time remembering the command
[07:49] <koer> how can i change that config ?
[07:49] <Tohru> Pelo: yes thats exactly what i did :)
[07:49] <heguru> koer: verify your repositories System -> Administration -> software sources
[07:49] <verb> Tohru, fdisk /mbr I think
[07:49] <Tohru> verb:  what i wanted to do was uninstall ubuntu and restore windows
[07:49] <heguru> koer: try to uncheck all 3rd party repositories, and reload in synaptic and try again
[07:49] <Pelo> Tohru, just google for restoring windows mbr and you should find some howto
[07:49] <Tohru> verb: in terminal?
[07:49] <verb> Tohru,
[07:49] <koer> okay
[07:49] <verb> Tohru, no
[07:50] <scaldov> hmhowie, Oh, routing works well. When I get connected, I issue scp command to copy a file, and it shows speed at 3.8MB/s
[07:50] <koer> yes i did mess with this 3rd party sources yesterady hahah
[07:50] <Pelo> Tohru,  it won'T be  something you do with the ubuntu cd,  you'll be using the windows install cd
[07:50] <verb> Tohru, google "windows mbr"
[07:50] <heguru> Tohru: do this from a windows boot cd in rescue mode: fdisk /mbr
[07:50] <Pelo> Tohru,  you can also try asking in ##windows
[07:50] <ashu> will firestarter keep running in the background once i install it?
[07:50] <Tohru> verb: well thats the rpoblem, i cant boot into windows. im having grub loading issues
[07:50] <h08817> i just burned the image of 7.04 on two cds and i did the check cd for defects and I keep getting this error on both cds failed MD5 checksum
[07:50] <Merlin--> hi guys If i have a question about transparent proxying on what channel should I ask it
[07:50] <K-Rich> Is anyone here familiar with Firestarter ?
[07:51] <heguru> Tohru: it will fix windows, but you wont be able to boot into linux
[07:51] <Pelo> ashu,  firestarter is just a gui frontend,    netfilter and iptable are the firewall stuff and they are always running
[07:51] <heguru> K-Rich: ask your question
[07:51] <koer> now it wont show any updates
[07:51] <Tohru> verb: i tried restoring boot sector in terminal but terminal say unknown HD =/
[07:51] <verb> Tohru, So you really want ubuntu with windows but couldn't ?
[07:51] <narothepharoh> I guess thats why noone answers because nobody knows anything
[07:51] <Pelo> K-Rich, see comment to ashu
[07:51] <Tohru> heguru: thats fine for now :) i jus need to boot into windows for my family to use
[07:51] <K-Rich> Pelo: I know this i'm trying to figure out how to use wildcards
[07:51] <ashu> Pelo: so my firewall was active evn b4 i got firestarter?
[07:51] <Tohru> heguru: i still got ubunto on the family laptop :)
[07:51] <Pelo> narothepharoh, some questions get lost in the trafic , repeat occasionnaly
[07:51] <koer> okay i think that fixed it
[07:52] <Pelo> ashu,  active but empty
[07:52] <narothepharoh> pelo how are you
[07:52] <heguru> Tohru: if you installed ubuntu right, you will have windows on the GRUB boot menu, which you can access by pressing Escape at Boot
[07:52] <ashu> Pelo: empty?  :?
[07:52] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  otherwise busy, do you have a query
[07:52] <scraliontis> thats good exposing the family to an opens sytem like linux, ie ubuntu
[07:52] <Pelo> ashu,  no rules in it
[07:52] <Xerostyle> MasterShrek: It's a broadcom wireless card.
[07:52] <verb> Tohru, heguru  is right
[07:52] <Tohru> heguru: what i did was deleted the ubuntu partitions, now i cant boot into anything
[07:52] <Pelo> ashu, open a terminal and type   iptables -L
[07:53] <ashu> Pelo: anyway now that i have firestarter, has iptables rules?
[07:53] <Tohru> verb: what i did was deleted the ubuntu partitions, now i cant boot into anything
[07:53] <narothepharoh> no offense just have asked a few questions lately and for the past week or so ive not been getting many responses ive posted numerous times
[07:53] <Pelo> ashu,  firestarted is just a gui frontend,  it can make rules if you tell it to
[07:53] <verb> Tohru, then you have to search google for "windows mbr" and it's not difficult
[07:53] <h08817> Has there been an updated version of 7.04 uploaded onto the site since june 28th?
[07:53] <heguru> ashu: firestarter creates iptables rules for you, to check what rules firestarter created run: sudo iptables -L
[07:54] <Tohru> verb:  problem is to use fixmbr i need to boot into windows which i cannot :(
[07:54] <scaldov> sshfs package is too old. Is it normal If I compile new one from sources?
[07:54] <verb> Tohru, use the windows install CD
[07:54] <koer> yeeeessssss!!!
[07:54] <ashu> Pelo: heguru: so is there any need to include firestarter in the auto-start list?
[07:54] <koer> it worked!!!
[07:54] <heguru> Tohru: you can boot into recovery console using XP cd
[07:54] <K-Rich> Pelo: how do i set the rule with wildcards with firestarted (say i want to block <IP_ADDRESS> through <IP_ADDRESS>)
[07:54] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  the skill set of the channel changes with the members attending,  you sometimes need to be patient,  you can also search in www.ubuntuforums.org for info
[07:54] <koer> thanks too all of you who helped :D
[07:54] <Tohru> verb:  and usecommand prompt?
[07:54] <verb> Tohru, yes
[07:54] <mrga_cro> why is linux windows connection so slow
[07:54] <Pelo> ashu,  no you don't need to put firestarted in the startup list
[07:55] <heguru> ashu: yes, iptables rules are not persistent, they are lost on reboots, so firestarter should run on every reboot to recreate them
[07:55] <verb> Tohru, the windows terminal if you want to call it that
[07:55] <Pelo> K-Rich,  I don,t know ,  myabe  yu can try asking in #firestarter
[07:55] <ashu> Pelo: heguru: also firestarter shows something called 'hits', are those hits still blocked when the gui is off?
[07:55] <h08817> According to my 7.04 i get the error ./pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.20/linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic_2.6.20-15.27_i386.deb file "failed the MD5 checksum verification."

[07:55] <Some_ux> how do i remove the annoying hostname from the login i get when i connect to my ubuntu ?
[07:55] <Pelo> ashu,  no clue
[07:55] <MasterShrek> Xerostyle, do u konw what kind of broadcom card 4311, 4318, etc?

[07:56] <heguru> ashu: close firestarter gui, run: sudo iptables -L
[07:56] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  your best bet for that is to look up the model of the hardware in the forum www.ubuntuforum.org
[07:56] <heguru> ashu: you will see all the rules, that means firestarter gui doesn't have to run
[07:56] <Pelo> K-Rich,  there is a firestarter website with a manual    look for it on google

[07:58] <Pelo> K-Rich,  that 's all I know
[07:58] <YeTr2> who paged me?
[07:59] <Pelo> andy_, those are it

[07:59] <Merlin--> guys anybody got experiance with transparent proxy ?
[07:59] <MinuteElectron> Pelo: So that will switch to true command line mode? I want to set up a server box, but I am new and some things won't work for me via the command line. I also need to reactivate without starting up the server. Thanks.
[07:59] <heguru> Merlin--: ask your question
[07:59] <BMT> is there a way to find out my WLAN address ( on my wireless router) using terminal
[08:00] <curious101> andy_, you can also go to /usr/src to verify
[08:00] <nanonyme> you mean mac?
[08:00] <curious101> iwconfig
[08:00] <Pelo> MinuteElectron, that will restart x and give you another login ,
[08:00] <scaldov> BMT, iwlist scan
[08:00] <Merlin--> i need someone to check the  routing script im working on for transparent proxying on squid
[08:00] <davee> I've just received a follow-up on a couple of Launchpad bugs from 'Launchpad Janitor' saying "Expired for <application> because there has been no activity for 60 days".  All bugs have recent (< 2 weeks) comments.  Anyone know what that's about?
[08:00] <MinuteElectron> Pelo: Oh, so gnome\KDE\sce all use X?
[08:00] <Pelo> Merlin--,  try asking in #networking
[08:00] <heguru> Merlin--: paste the script and i will check it
[08:01] <scaldov> BMT, this will scan ether for access points and print out their ESSIDs
[08:01] <kbrooks> MinuteElectron, indirectly.
[08:01] <MinuteElectron> *xce
[08:01] <K-Rich> heguru: i responded in #firestarter
[08:01] <MinuteElectron> kbrooks: cool
[08:01] <BMT> is wlan0 my wireless router ?
[08:01] <kbrooks> MinuteElectron, gnome and xfce use gtk. kde use qr.
[08:01] <MasterShrek> BMT, it should be your wireless card
[08:01] <Pelo> Dave123, I think you can safely ignore them
[08:01] <BMT> i want to find out the ip address of the wlan
[08:01] <kbrooks> mindrape, er, qt
[08:01] <kbrooks> er
[08:01] <Pelo> later folks
[08:01] <Merlin--> can someone to check the  routing script im working on for transparent proxying on squid
[08:01] <kbrooks> MinuteElectron, qt*(
[08:01] <fogobogo> Whats ssh and how can i use it? does anybody know a good link or so? do i have to run a server for that?
[08:01] <MinuteElectron> kbrooks: heh
[08:01] <BMT> i know i could very well go into the router...but i figured terminal was powerful enough to do it for me
[08:01] <kbrooks> mindrape, sry
[08:01] <curious101> BMT, it's your wireless card, not the router
[08:01] <scaldov> BMT what mode does it run?
[08:02] <MasterShrek> BMT, ifconfig
[08:02] <Merlin--> or maybe refer me to a script that will do so ?
[08:02] <BMT> i am running dhcp on my router
[08:02] <scaldov> BMT, roaming or managed

[08:03] <Frustrated> I want to install Ubuntu, but my Nero burner somehow fails to burn the CD correctly
[08:03] <Frustrated> It ends up having 0 bytes free data with 0 bytes used
[08:04] <Rainarrow> Hello, my Ubuntu suddenly went no sound after I exited a instance of dosbox
[08:04] <Frustrated> Someone experienced this same problem and found an answer?
[08:04] <BMT> scaldov, i dont want  configre my "wireless" care....i just want to see if terminal can tell me what my external ip address is from my router
[08:04] <Rainarrow> After restarting the problem persists
[08:04] <BMT> care - card
[08:04] <verb> Frustrated, are you sure the ISO is not corrupt
[08:04] <scaldov> aa. well. ifconfig
[08:04] <scaldov> it will print all info including IP
[08:05] <Rainarrow> The machine is a Thinkpad T40, and the sound device is Intel 82801DB-ICH4
[08:05] <MasterShrek> i dunno DocTomoe thats really strange
[08:05] <Rainarrow> I'm using ALSA sound drivers
[08:05] <Frustrated> verb: I am pretty sure it is not corrupted. My father burned an Ubuntu install CD earlier (I cannot find it anymore) and he had a similar problem but he solved it by some trick and I guess he does not remember how
[08:05] <Xerostyle> sorry MasterShrek, I have no clue. How do I find out?
[08:05] <Rainarrow> anyone could help?
[08:05] <lastent> how can I change the DNS from the terminal?

[08:05] <georo> @Mp3Q8.Us V1.0 By, Mp3Q8.Us Team
[08:06] <predaeus> Rainarrow, check alsamixer settings and switches.
[08:06] <verb> Frustrated, Did you just copy/paste the ISO or used the "burn ISO" wizard
[08:06] <DocTomoe> Funny thing is: it worked great on the intel32 system I had before, but refuses to do at AMD64
[08:06] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> have you tried downloading from another source @ frustrated
[08:06] <Frustrated> I ran Nero and chose the CD image burn option
[08:06] <georo> can some one help me
[08:06] <Frustrated> I am pretty sure it is not corrupted.
[08:06] <MasterShrek> DocTomoe, is it a 32-bit binary?
[08:06] <Haru> verb, hes getting 0 bytes, apparantly either his iso is bad or his burner is bad
[08:06] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> and did you slow down the burn process to 8x ? @ frustrated ?
[08:06] <MasterShrek> DocTomoe, try   linux32 [filename]
[08:06] <BMT> is anyone here totally "linux_dependent"....i mean doesn't use windows for anything ? !
[08:06] <Frustrated> It was x 10
[08:07] <georo> hi a have some problem my desktop did`t work and loading
[08:07] <Rainarrow> predaeus, even if I click test in the Multimedia System Selector or the Pref->Sound, there is still no sound
[08:07] <Frustrated> x 10 and x 4 were the only options the program offered
[08:07] <andy_> I have a problem with the nvidia driver, I've followed this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368  Now when I install the nvidia drivers and are restarting the xserver I get: the xserver is not configured correctly blabla, So it won't let me get into gdm/start the xserver. I've checked the xserver error report and it says that my nvidia-kernel module aint matching with my nvidia driver. How should I fix this?
[08:07] <BMT> MasterShrek, how long did it take you to get to this point....i am currently trying to achieve this goal
[08:07] <MasterShrek> andy_, recompile the driver?
[08:07] <heguru> BMT: I don't use windows at all
[08:07] <xerxe> andy, try envy!
[08:07] <Rainarrow> the sound has worked perfectly before
[08:07] <Rade> BMT: I am at home, work requires windows (though not for any reason regarding my job)
[08:07] <predaeus> Rainarrow, run alsamixer and check the settings, switch tabs with the TAB key. Exit with ESC.
[08:07] <BMT> heguru, what about you....same question
[08:08] <andy_> by recompile you mean? :x
[08:08] <andy_> Just got ubuntu
[08:08] <predaeus> Rainarrow, in a terminal.
[08:08] <Frustrated> So is it that I must not use x 10?
[08:08] <BMT> rade....also to you same question
[08:08] <MasterShrek> BMT, depends, how much time you put into it
[08:08] <Xerostyle> it
[08:08] <predaeus> DocTomoe, hm try running it like "linux32 appname"
[08:08] <verb> Frustrated, ok then you need to check the md5sum (the best way to check the integrity of a file) wait a sec ...I'll give you the tool
[08:08] <Xerostyle> it's a 1390
[08:08] <Rade> BMT: It took about 6 months
[08:08] <andyrug> !envy
[08:08] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[08:08] <Rainarrow> predaeus, the results is same as the volume control in the notify area
[08:08] <georo> hi a have some problem my desktop did`t work and loading
[08:08] <verb> Frustrated, using 4x is preferred but not required
[08:08] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> I dont know, I doubt that that will make much of a difference... It was just a thought to slow down the bruning speed... but 10x should be fine
[08:08] <verb> Frustrated, wait a sec
[08:08] <dgjones> BMT, my wifes got a dual boot XP machine, the win xp gets used for 90 minutes every other week, other than that our house is ubuntu only
[08:08] <andy_> Ah btw, when i install the driver it says it doesn't find any kernel so it tries to look it up on nvidias website, but it doesn't find any matching kernel there either. So the next step the installer does is "do you want us to compile a driver blabla"
[08:08] <Rainarrow> Master, Master Mono, Headphone is set to 70
[08:09] <andy_> and i said yes
[08:09] <Rainarrow> and PCM
[08:09] <BMT> MasterShrek, i am currently working on trying to become a java developer.....and part of my goal is to totally becoming "windows-free"
[08:09] <andy_> still, it says the kernel module aint matching with my driver
[08:09] <Rainarrow> I intentionally turned off the MIC and Line in
[08:09] <DocTomoe> MasterShrek / predaeus: negative, linux32 does not do the trick, same error ("ysflight cannot be found"). Also tried linux32 ./ysflight
[08:09] <heguru> BMT: as a java developer, you will never miss windows :)
[08:09] <Rade> BMT: I'm a java developer... using Eclipse, Tomcat, etc... no windows required.
[08:09] <BMT> MasterShrek, i only want to use linux and unix....nothing else....maybe macs..if i ever get the money together
[08:09] <Rade> I think IntelliJ is also cross platform, lots of people like that
[08:10] <BMT> rade, i need to talk to you in private chat if that is possible
[08:10] <verb> Frustrated, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[08:10] <BMT> heguru, i agree
[08:10] <Rainarrow> predaeus, the sound worked perfectly before, today I played some old DOS game with dosbox
[08:10] <Rade> If you want, I am an irc newb, so I dunno how to private chat
[08:10] <MasterShrek> BMT, anyone can become windows-free, its just a matter of finding programs that do what you want, and living with the fact that most games wont be playable under linux
[08:10] <Rainarrow> predaeus, and upon exit I noticed the sound went out
[08:10] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> yeah md5 is a good idea!
[08:10] <Frustrated> Verb: Thanks, I'll see if that helps
[08:10] <wastrel> irc
[08:10] <Rainarrow> predaeus, after restart and playing various settings, the problem persists
[08:11] <verb> Frustrated, this tool let's you know weather your ISO is correct or corrupt
[08:11] <verb> Frustrated, for windows
[08:11] <heguru> Rainarrow: try to do this: mv ~/.asoundrc ~/.asoundrc.bak
[08:11] <BMT> MasterShrek, i don't get into the game too much...if i do ...it is console gaming
[08:11] <heguru> Rainarrow: restart alsa
[08:11] <heguru> Rainarrow: try playing sound
[08:11] <Frustrated> Oh, ok
[08:11] <madnewbie> BMT: iwconfig?
[08:11] <Frustrated> And what if it is not corrupted?
[08:11] <Rainarrow> heguru, I have no .asoundrc in my home directory
[08:12] <heguru> Rainarrow: do you have /etc/asound.conf ? if yes rename that to bak as well
[08:12] <MasterShrek> Xerostyle, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/1390
[08:12] <verb> Frustrated, if the problem is that the file is corrupt , you may want to download the ISO from bittorrent, because it automatically checks md5sum....if the ISO is correct but you still has the problem ...come here and tell us :)
[08:12] <Rainarrow> heguru, ok that's done, now how do I restart ALSA?
[08:12] <RogerBacon> does anyone know an utilities that can format any hard drive from an usb device ? (I will put my HDD on a ipod and boot on rescue mod), im on windows btw, but i can use ubuntu.
[08:12] <Frustrated> OK, thx for the help
[08:12] <heguru> Rainarrow: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[08:12] <MasterShrek> BMT, you should be fine, especially if u are computer savvy enough to program java, itll just take some time to figure out how things in linux work, once u do, youll wish you have made the switch sooner
[08:13] <se-agapo> is it any programs like the programs of stardock to use ?
[08:13] <heguru> Rainarrow: if that doesn work, you may have to restart :(
[08:13] <fogobogo> verb sooo.... i need to run a server for ssh?
[08:13] <MasterShrek> se-agapo, you dont need those programs, everything in linux is customizable out of the box
[08:13] <verb> fogobogo, on ubuntu or on windows?>
[08:13] <Rainarrow> heguru, seems it did restart ALSA for me
[08:13] <heguru> Rainarrow: can you play sounds?
[08:14] <Rainarrow> heguru, I see the shutting down ALSA/starting up ALSA message in my terminal
[08:14] <Rainarrow> however there is still no sound

[08:16] <Frustrated> Verb: Uh, I selected the ISO with the browsing thing of the check program and now it appears to be calculating something happily. Did it start the check automatically?
[08:16] <fogobogo> verb will it setup automatically? don`t i need a static ip or so?
[08:16] <wweasel> Hello, I am trying to write a bash script and have a notification dialog pop up using Zenity. Can someone tell me how to get the script to continue after the zenity command, without me having to hit "OK" and close zenity's window?
[08:17] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> hey is there a way to run Ubuntus Driver recognition thingy again, so it automatically recognises my graphics Card again ?
[08:17] <verb> Frustrated, did you first supply it with the md5sum code for the ISO you downloaded?
[08:17] <ubuntu_> h

[08:17] <ubuntu_> can i ask for some help please with http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=557012
[08:18] <Frustrated> Oh, what is that, actually? I don't really get it

[08:18] <verb> fogobogo, it depends ....but you can use the host name instead (computer name)
[08:18] <Frustrated> Is that a code that is used to identify the content?
[08:18] <verb> Frustrated, ok ...tell me the complete name of the ISO you downloaded
[08:18] <blessid> Ubuntu roxx!  compiz+avant ftw!

[08:27] <GBenemy> fish and chips mainly
[08:27] <mete_888> yes, I was there 3-4 weeks in my holidays

[08:27] <mete_888> GBenemy, noup, I only understand a little bit italian
[08:27] <heguru> MrPink: ATI drivers = restricted drivers
[08:27] <Frustrated> verb: Should I maybe try re-burning with the 4 x speed?
[08:27] <MrPink> after the install it was working fine... Desktop Effects and resolution... then I screwed up the xorg.config and I had to manually chose from a List... and it didn't automatically install the drivers, I had to chose restricted ATI drivers

[08:29] <ubuntu_> umm sorry i newbie
[08:29] <heguru> Rainarrow: good :)
[08:29] <curious101> hi, anybody have used swat? how do you start the service?

[08:30] <|thunder> pvl1; python with a little gtk i think
[08:30] <verb> Frustrated, ok then try and see if you can boot from it (don't forget to change the boot order to boot from CD drive first)
[08:30] <Rainarrow> heguru, I mean the wireless NIC
[08:30] <heguru> curious101: swat has to be started using inetd (or xinted)
[08:30] <h08817> Currently I have the 5.04 release installed (yes I am well aware it is old and unsupported) but, is it possible that it supports wpa encryption for my wireless connection? In the settings it only says wep

[08:30] <pvl1> I thunder, thanks

[08:31] <wastrel> ubuntu_:  what's the drive number?  /dev/sdXX  ?
[08:31] <heguru> Rainarrow: ok
[08:31] <ubuntu_> um sorry its a bit fast wait
[08:31] <Rainarrow> heguru, thanks a lot, but does turning off ESD affect my other applications?
[08:31] <ubuntu_> should be 2

[08:31] <verb> h08817, look for the official torrents...you will find official torrent files in the download pages here .....don't look in other torrent site..
[08:31] <BMT2> hello

[08:32] <verb> h08817,, I meant ubuntu.com by the word here :)
[08:32] <heguru> Rainarrow: well 99% of new applications support alsa, ESD is a thing of the past i would say. I guess only Gnome sounds (startup and all) use them now, if you need them you can stil configure esd to run with -terminate
[08:32] <Frustrated> Verb: Btw, I also found 8 x speed. Is that a better choice than 4 x?
[08:32] <ubuntu_> all pictures are here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=557012
[08:32] <bluefox83> Frustrated, that's currently correct, but that's changing very shortly as ATI has announced they are going to be stepping up their linux driver support
[08:32] <verb> Frustrated, the lower the safer
[08:32] <h08817> verb, what am I supposed to do? I have azureus open, you want me to set it to download the release from ubuntu.com?

[08:33] <ubuntu_> ok
[08:33] <verb> h08817, no
[08:33] <ubuntu_> sorry how do i mount
[08:33] <wastrel> ubuntu_: if that works you just need to fix /etc/fstab  for /dev/sda2
[08:33] <crimsun> heguru: by default esound releases the default audio device after 1 idle second.  It has been that way for four Ubuntu releases. :)
[08:33] <Iradigalesc> Hello! Can I run screen with a command and detach it automatically? I would like to implement it in a shell script; so I can only have it in 1 line...

[08:36] <verb> Frustrated, heh :)
[08:36] <heguru> psgrewal: you can use snort, its available in the repository
[08:36] <Frustrated> I wonder if it is somehow related to the fact that the burning process failed badly last time
[08:36] <crimsun> heguru: there's work to remove the esound dependency from libgnome.  It's in the pulse roadmap portion of gnome's dev pages.
[08:36] <Malachi> How can I change my Remote Desktop password through the terminal?
[08:36] <psgrewal> thanks

[08:37] <Frustrated> Oh, another burning program?
[08:37] <Frustrated> Sounds good
[08:37] <wastrel> ubuntu_: ok first make a backup copy  cp /etc/fstab  ~/fstab.bak
[08:38] <heguru> Rainarrow: hmm, well what applications are you using?
[08:38] <heguru> Rainarrow: some applications will lock the sound device irrespective of ESD
[08:38] <verb> Frustrated, it's open source :)   (open-source goodies)

[08:38] <Rainarrow> heguru, I tested with mpg123 and beep-media-player

[08:39] <verb> Frustrated, yes it can ( we call it Blank a CD-RW or erase a CD-RW)
[08:39] <Rainarrow> heguru, I started mpg123 first, then when I try to play another mp3 with bmp it gives me a "can't open sound" error

[08:42] <verb> Frustrated, maybe the CD is no a good one

[08:44] <h08817> verb, now i just have to do a search
[08:44] <heguru> Rainarrow: I don't thing it was ESD, it might have been your /etc/asound.conf file
[08:44] <verb> h08817, no
[08:44] <h08817> verb, then where do i download the file from?
[08:44] <verb> h08817, wait I;ll give you the torrent file

[08:45] <h08817> verb, ok
[08:45] <Frustrated> This might be slightly offtopic, but does Linux provide any effective tools for shrinking png size without affecting the quality?
[08:45] <puffy-san> mete_888: thanks, I'll check it out
[08:45] <jetscreamer> Kanuha: yes to both. no i don't have any answers cept use grub

[08:46] <h08817> verb, how is this? releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent
[08:46] <Frustrated> Does that come with the default package?
[08:46] <Kanuha> jetscreamer, thx, I did not install it yet, but thinking about it because it supports boot images. I know grub does as well, but was thinking of upgrading
[08:46] <heguru> Rainarrow: i mean some program when run as root, can modify files in /etc without you knowing, i don't know if dosbox would do that though
[08:46] <Rainarrow> heguru, ok thanks a lot
[08:47] <verb> h08817, yes that's it ....:) I was searching for it but my browsing speed is killing me(he is downloading)

[08:47] <verb> h08817, I mean my brother is downloading

[08:47] <h08817> verb, hopefully this version won't crash
[08:48] <ubuntu_> thank u wasterl that worked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:48] <ubuntu_> :)
[08:48] <Rainarrow> heguru, I heard that with recent kernel releases it's no long necessary to install CPU-specific kernel, such as i686 and K7?
[08:48] <ubuntu_> :)
[08:48] <Kanuha> jetscreamer, thx
[08:48] <BMT2> .rar files are not supported in linux ?
[08:48] <verb> h08817, hope so....and it shouldn't ....how's the download speed?
[08:48] <peepsalot> is there a gui terminal software that will "unwrap" lines that have already been written when you resize the window?
[08:48] <Rainarrow> heguru, someone in this chatroom suggested me to just stick with the generic one
[08:48] <verb> Frustrated, what's new?
[08:48] <Pelo> BMT2,  sudo apt-get install unrar
[08:48] <stonebear> Hi

[08:49] <h08817> verb, 840 and above
[08:49] <mete_888> so, I'm afk
[08:49] <jetscreamer> BMT2: of course they are?
[08:49] <Frustrated> Then I'll try burning the ISO again
[08:49] <jetscreamer> chatroom?
[08:49] <Pelo> jetscreamer,  not out of the box
[08:49] <Frustrated> I have kind of bad memories of Nero now :/
[08:49] <Frustrated> It has failed me before as well
[08:49] <jetscreamer> well you have to actually install some programs... :o
[08:49] <stonebear> Anyone know if the newest release comes with samba?
[08:49] <verb> h08817, good :)   you don't usually get this speed with other torrent files (games, etc)
[08:49] <Pelo> Frustrated, burn at very low speed
[08:49] <Frustrated> OK
[08:50] <jetscreamer> they all come with samba if you install it
[08:50] <Rainarrow> heguru, is that true? that CPU-specific kernel is useless now
[08:50] <h08817> verb, yeah i know im quite surprised at the number of seeders
[08:50] <javabugz> is there any special requirement to get Fiesty/Gusty to use gigabit speed on my forcedeth device?  it works fine with Gentoo
[08:50] <koudelka_> if i want to install new icons, which folder should i put the icons in?
[08:50] <verb> h08817, the ubuntu community is one of the best out there :)
[08:50] <Pelo> javabugz, look it up in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[08:51] <BMT2> jetscreamer, my ubuntu is telling me .rar is not supported
[08:51] <h08817> verb, yes it is and best of all open-source
[08:51] <Humpy> Anyone know a lot about the CD install files for Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:51] <macd> javabugz, are you familiar with ethtool?
[08:51] <verb> Pelo,  hehe ...that's right :)
[08:51] <MrPink> hmm I tried "sudo dpfkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but that doesnt have ubuntu recognise and install the drivers automatically, but I have to choose the graphics driver from a list of manufacturers.... any other Idea of how to have the Hardware recognition from the installation be run again ?
[08:51] <Pelo> Humpy,  specific questions are easier to answer
[08:51] <h08817> verb, does 7.04 support wpa encryption? or do I have to download something special for that?
[08:52] <heguru> Rainarrow: sorry was away
[08:52] <verb> h08817, I think it does
[08:52] <Pelo> MrPink, do you knwo what your video card is ?  if not use vesa
[08:52] <Rainarrow> heguru, np :)
[08:52] <heguru> Rainarrow: CPU specific kernels do help, but negligible advantage on end-user machines
[08:52] <Humpy> Is it possible to install Ubuntu from CD starting at a DOS prompt?
[08:52] <MrPink> yes I have a ATI 9600 Pro
[08:52] <heguru> Rainarrow: on server however its a different story
[08:52] <verb> Frustrated, hopefully it no longer complains about missing the CD ?
[08:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry people, having a brain fart day.  I want to make a launcher for sauerbraten.  I can get to it from terminal with cd sauerbraten and then ./sauerbraten_unix -w1280 -h960... what is the correct syntax to make one command line for the launcher...?
[08:52] <h08817> verb, good
[08:52] <javabugz> macd..yes
[08:52] <Pelo> Humpy,  you need the alternate install cd or  the install dvd
[08:53] <javabugz> it listed the 1000baseT as supported
[08:53] <macd> javabugz, you could add a line something like: 'pre-up /usr/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000' to /etc/network/interfaces
[08:53] <javabugz> i guess i can force it to 1000baset using sudo ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg of
[08:53] <MrPink> any ideas now that you know its a 9600 pro @ Pelo ?
[08:53] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow,  what'S the command line to start it from the terminal same thing
[08:53] <jetscreamer> BMT2: some winrar3 format isn't supported by the default rar... but iirc there is a version that will do that format,but not positive
[08:53] <heguru> MrPink: for ATI 9600 just install fglrx-kernel
[08:53] <javabugz> but just want to understand why the negotiation failed
[08:54] <macd> javabugz, adding it to /etc/network/interfaces makes it a perm change.
[08:54] <MrPink> is that like: xgl  ?
[08:54] <Frustrated> Verb: I think that was caused by the broken CD
[08:54] <Rainarrow> heguru, ok I see, but I guess on servers won't a specifically compiled kernel do even better?
[08:54] <Pelo> MrPink,  is that an intel chip ?  company is more usefull to me,  I'm not great with hardware
[08:54] <macd> javabugz, dmesg, and syslog can help you to understand what went wrong.
[08:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: I thought it needed the cd sauerbraten
[08:54] <maney> hmmm.... the web site seems to have been deranged completely since last time I needed to find anything.  got Gutsy sort of up on a Compaq C560 laptop, seems to be totally lost about the 945GM video (only suggests i810 driver, which refuses to run at 1280x800, so the screen kind of sucks). and other stuff
[08:54] <heguru> MrPink: and then run aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:54] <javabugz> there is nothing in dmesg
[08:54] <Humpy> Pelo, where can I get the alternate CD?
[08:54] <Pelo> Humpy,  I don,t allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel
[08:54] <javabugz> same as syslog
[08:54] <javabugz> it just picked 100 instead of 1000
[08:54] <Frustrated> Verb: Uh, this open source thingy offers 1 x writing speed... doesn't that take a bit long?
[08:54] <Pelo> Humpy,  from the ubuntu.com site just check box under the download now button
[08:55] <YBH_1> How do I install Ubuntu on my commodore 64?
[08:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: I now type in two commands, I want either a seperator for the command line or syntax including the path
[08:55] <MrPink> how do I install fglrx-kernel ?
[08:55] <Pelo> YBH_1, firt you need to transfer from the cd to 164 magnetic tapes
[08:55] <verb> Frustrated, it does but gives the best result(you should have chosen a faster one...but no problem :)   )
[08:55] <heguru> MrPink: sudo apt-get install fglrx-kernel
[08:55] <Frustrated> It is actually possible to install Ubuntu on Commodore? Whoa... O_o
[08:55] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow,  && I beleive is the seperator
[08:55] <Frustrated> Verb: I did not start yet
[08:55] <Frustrated> So should I go with the 4 x instead?
[08:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: will try that .. thanks
[08:56] <Pelo> Frustrated,  as low as you can
[08:56] <verb> Frustrated, yes if you are in a hurry
[08:56] <MrPink> ok I will try that heguru thanks
[08:56] <Frustrated> Oh, well, I guess I do not have any more CDs to waste so I go with 1 x
[08:56] <Humpy> Pelo, so I should be able to load the alternate one from DOS?
[08:56] <verb> Frustrated, but lower ids better as I told you
[08:56] <Frustrated> During that I'll copy all those 1337 files I want to preserve
[08:56] <verb> is*
[08:57] <Frustrated> What are these option checkbox things here?
[08:57] <Pelo> Humpy,  you'll boot the alternate install cd, and from the menu you wil have command line options or you can also use the text based installer
[08:57] <Pelo> Frustrated, whut ?
[08:57] <MrPink> @heguru  E:  "Couldn't find package fglrx-kernel"
[08:57] <Frustrated> "Simulation" "Buffer overrun protection" "Pad Data Tracks" and "Fixate disc after writing"
[08:57] <heguru> Rainarrow: on servers i prefer CPU specific kernels, i usually end up compiling my own though
[08:57] <Pelo> Frustrated,  if you don'T know what they mean, leave them alone
[08:57] <lovingyou> hello
[08:58] <Pelo> Frustrated,  and you are burning an imaghe, not  burning data , get out of there now
[08:58] <heguru> Rainarrow: but again, only on high-end servers where every bit of performance matters
[08:58] <Pelo> hello lovingyou
[08:58] <Frustrated> Uh...?
[08:58] <Rainarrow> heguru, ok I see, thanks for your patience :P
[08:58] <Humpy> Pelo, I can't get my PC to boot from CD, I had to load DOS to get it to see the CD
[08:58] <Frustrated> Pelo: What do you actually mean?
[08:58] <MrPink> heguru ?
[08:58] <rothchild> Hi can anyone tell me how I switch my input devices between 2 different xservers (ie my monitor on vga and the the TV on svhs)
[08:58] <lovingyou> Anyone know where are the PHP logs on Ubuntu ?
[08:58] <Frustrated> Did I choose something wrong?
[08:58] <macd> doesnt gnome have right click to burn isos
[08:59] <Pelo> Frustrated, you want to burn an iso file ? that is a cd image, you do not copy it to a cd like files,  you need to "burn image" , look around your menus for that option
[08:59] <rothchild> I've used this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOut
[08:59] <georo> hi a have some problem my desktop did`t work and loading?
[08:59] <Frustrated> OK
[08:59] <heguru> MrPink: try: sudo apt-get instaoo xorg-driver-fglrx
[08:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: right cligh... write iso to disk
[08:59] <Frustrated> Hmm, looks like I was using "Burn image"
[08:59] <Jack_Sparrow> click
[08:59] <psgrewal> hey i need an application layer based ids does anybody know anything abt such systems
[08:59] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow, I don,t think he's in ubuntu
[09:00] <heguru> psgrewal: Snort can do Layer 7 IDS
[09:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: If windows..iso recorder is very small free iso burner..
[09:00] <stonebear> Woot! 21st bday. Sparks & ubuntu = 8)
[09:00] <psgrewal> thanks man
[09:00] <Frustrated> Well, it is writing now
[09:00] <MrPink> heguru: that worked better but now it says: xorg-driver-fglrx is already the newest version
[09:00] <Frustrated> I'll be back if more problems occur. Thanks for all the help
[09:00] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow,  I think Frustrated  is using nero , I know it is somewhere in the menus but nero has multiple interfaces so it's a pain to walk him through it,  and i donT' have it available anyway so
[09:01] <Frustrated> Pelo: Using the open source one now
[09:01] <Pelo> Frustrated, best of luck
[09:01] <heguru> MrPink: ok next just do: aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:01] <Frustrated> Thx
[09:01] <mnemo> can anyone recommend a good CPU profiler for linux, which does not require instrumentation of the binaries?
[09:01] <evilgeek> some combination of this ubuntu feisty machine and its monitor are unable to display resolutions higher than 800x600.  the video card is happy to set 1024x768, but the monitor won't display anything.  the video card is an "Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04)" and the monitor is an IBM E74.  (when it ran windows, it was capable of running in modes up to 1280x1024, i believe.)
[09:01] <heguru> MrPink: then try to start gdm sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: Nero is a long way around just to burn an iso
[09:01] <evilgeek> (i'm using the i810 X driver, of course.)
[09:01] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow,  depends on what comes installed with your windows computer when you bought it
[09:02] <Jack_Sparrow> evilgeek: post your xorg.. to the pastebin.. we will check it out.
[09:02] <heguru> evilgeek: you need to fix the refresh rates, if you can find the refresh rate range for this monitor i will tell you how to configure it
[09:02] <MrPink> heguru: "Found fglrx primary device section... Nothing to do, terminating" :-(
[09:02] <evilgeek> Jack_Sparrow: xorg.conf, you mean?
[09:02] <Pelo> later folks
[09:02] <evilgeek> heguru: oh god, i have to write modelines?
[09:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo... Take care...
[09:02] <georo> i can`t access to my desktop is login then stop then i have a  blank screen
[09:02] <Jack_Sparrow> evilgeek: yes
[09:02] <heguru> MrPink: hmm, well join me in #ubuntu-video to try to solve this
[09:02] <javabugz> macd..thanks
[09:03] <james296> does anyone here know any good site thats an alternative to ubuntuguide.org? I noticed that site has been down for a while now...
[09:03] <andy_> I've got a question regarding nvidia drivers(32bit) I just installed the nivida drivers from the official nvidia website and when i restart the x server i get that the x server is not configured correctly, in the error log it says the nivida kernel moduel does not match the current nvidia driver(100.14.19) What should I do? been working with this the last 4 days, cant seem to figure anything out! :/
[09:03] <Jack_Sparrow> evilgeek: Wont know til we look at it eh?
[09:03] <evilgeek> Jack_Sparrow: okay.  an embarrassing question, but how do you get w3m to use vi as its default text editor rather than pico? =)  i don't know how to read a file in pico.
[09:03] <peepsalot> where can I find a list/comparison of gui terminals?
[09:03] <javabugz> andy_: if you use the native nvidia drivers...you need to also compile the nvidia kernel module
[09:03] <mauri> where are stored the packaged dowloaded with adept updater
[09:04] <rothchild> Hi can anyone tell me how I switch my input devices between 2 different xservers (ie my monitor on vga and the the TV on svhs)?
[09:04] <javabugz> ubuntuforums has a few posts where you can find details on how to do it
[09:04] <xerxe> hello to all! i have a  problem. when i play a video file with vlc player, i get a green bar on the top of th epicture. how can i solved that? got x1300 radeon , fglrx, xorg, no beryk
[09:04] <javabugz> andy_: i suggest that you use the driver that come with ubuntu
[09:04] <andy_> when i installed the driver the installer told me that it didn't find any precompiled kernel, therefore it asked me if it was going to search for one on nivida's ftp
[09:04] <Jack_Sparrow> evilgeek: I dont know.
[09:04] <Rainarrow> heguru, thanks again for helping me, I am leaving, goodbye
[09:04] <andy_> I did so, but it didn't find anything. So, it asked me if it should compile a kernel for me
[09:05] <andy_> I said yes and it installed
[09:05] <heguru> Rainarrow: welcome anytime :)
[09:05] <javabugz> andy_: using the command prompt...just type in "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new"
[09:05] <mauri> where are stored the packaged dowloaded with adept updater
[09:05] <javabugz> you should get the new drivers
[09:05] <avt3kk> freinds can you help me please?
[09:05] <evilgeek> figured it out.  http://rafb.net/p/uNUOmK97.html

[09:05] <andy_> 7.04 javabugz
[09:05] <evilgeek> (i did some small edits to the file --- namely changing default depth to 16 and adding the 1024x768 resolution.)
[09:06] <Jack_Sparrow> andy_: were you having problems with the drivers from the repos?
[09:06] <andy_> repos?
[09:06] <andy_> fairly new to ubuntu
[09:06] <avt3kk> Heguru: itsa been a couple weeks and I havnt found a way to get into yahoo chat witn tubuntu yet with the new letters and numbers verification entry system they are using now so im wondering if theres a new gaim or something out that will do this?
[09:06] <avt3kk> *ubuntu
[09:07] <Jack_Sparrow> andy_: If you are fairly new to ubuntu, you might want to learn about the repositories, how to use synaptic, aptitude or apt-get to find and install software
[09:07] <verb> h08817, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/704tour    you asked me if ubuntu had WPA encryption ....take a look at the network part of the release notes

[09:09] <c3p0> hey guys i just did a fresh install of 7.04 been tweaking it for the last few hours -- just a quick question... unless i missed something during installation my USER account and my ROOT account have the same password by default? seems a bit redundant any ideas?
[09:09] <Frustrated_Again> This CD corruption happened again with the other CD :/
[09:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Frustrated_Again: You are in windows right?  google up isorecorder and get the right one for your system/service pack...
[09:09] <javabugz> seems lazy..but is anyone aware of current kvm (with kernel module) for gusty?
[09:10] <PriceChild> !gutsy | javabugz

[09:11] <avt3kk> ubuntu makes it so easy

[09:11] <verb> h08817, what's the model?
[09:11] <Frustrated_Again> Verb: It seems that trying to burn a CD corrupts it, both with Nero and the open source one
[09:11] <panosru> can someone help me install wine on my Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty 64bit?
