[20:42] <Geek`N`Proud> jmulloy, look at a piece of software called Sabayon for making locked down profiles
[20:42] <Geek`N`Proud> it is included mostly with Red Hat and Novell distros but there may be a package for Ubuntu too
[20:43] <jmulloy> Is sabayon stable for Ubuntu?
[20:43] <sam555> what's the command to stop the mysql server in ubuntu?
[20:43] <mucter> does anyone know an ETA for a fix on the issues with installing 8.10 server onto ICH9r raid 5?
[20:44] <glitsj16> sam555: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop
[20:44] <jmulloy> Perhaps I could make a script on logout/login that deleted any settings they changed.
[20:44] <sam555> glitsj16: awesome!
[20:44] <Geek`N`Proud> jmulloy, it is in main by the looks of
[20:44] <sint> daftykins: i will search the internet, maybe someone has the same problem! thanks anyway :)
[20:44] <Geek`N`Proud> jmulloy, so the answer to that is yes - as stable as any other main component
[20:44] <glitsj16> sam555: use a similar syntax to start it again when needed
[20:45] <style> siemanko
[20:45] <style> mam pytanie
[20:45] <jmulloy> Thank you dafty and geek I will check out both options.

[20:45] <stevr1it> hello I have a problem, I ma suing intrepid with nvidia 4000 and its dirver but when I am on some forum on the web i see not words but just they are covered by black and when I  mark them the words appear magically, can you help me?
[20:45] <Scunizi> Is there an easy tool to administer samba?
[20:45] <_VIM_> !info swat
[20:45] <mucter> webmin
[20:46] <Myrtti> !webmin | mucter
[20:46] <Scunizi> Thanks _VIM_ & mucter
[20:46] <_VIM_> wow ubottu is lagging bad, i only have a 83 ms delay from clarke.freenode.net so it's not me
[20:46] <_VIM_> you're welcome Scunizi
[20:46] <mucter> oh really? interesting
[20:47] <daftykins> mucter i don't think it would be worth their time fixing installs to intel fakeraid
[20:48] <mucter> well its important for my Clients server
[20:48] <salifa> hey guys my grubs getting an error 17 and im unable to load any os - what can i do
[20:48] <mucter> so i guess I'll have to try a different distro, everyone told me ubuntu was "the way"
[20:48] <deathtech> Hello all! Im currently running a VNC Server, on a Seperate Machine, and rather than create multiple desktops , i would like to Mirror the Current running desktop, is this poissible ?
[20:48] <daftykins> is it server you're trying to install?
[20:48] <_VIM_> mucter: you'll later find out they were correct
[20:48] <mucter> yes
[20:49] <daftykins> you wouldn't put the OS onto a RAID 5 volume imo
[20:49] <mucter> haha, I've been using redhat for 10 years
[20:49] <Geek`N`Proud> mucter, Ubuntu is geared around desktops
[20:49] <daftykins> you'd put the OS on a normal disk, then use the RAID 5 volume as the storage only sorta thing
[20:49] <Geek`N`Proud> i'd recommend CentOS or Debian for servers
[20:49] <mucter> and all of my friends keep trying to switch me to ubuntu, so I thought I'd give it a shot
[20:49] <_VIM_> Ive tried a million distros, no one beats ubuntu's community/support that's what keeps me sticking with ubuntu :)
[20:49] <salifa> no im just installed the standard ubuntu 8.109
[20:49] <salifa> 8.10**
[20:50] <mucter> _VIM_: thats what I've been told, the support is key
[20:50] <mucter> as with other open source projects I work with, Drupal, CakePHP, etc.
[20:50] <Chris___> how can I compile grub2 for ubuntu intrepid?
[20:50] <daftykins> deprecated /etc/X11/xorg.conf left me being able to do virtually nothing with X config issues :P
[20:51] <daftykins> though that's more newer gnome than it is newer ubuntu
[20:51] <mucter> so if I was going to try to stick with ubuntu, you'd suggest running the OS on a single non-raid drive, then put the partition for my storage on the raid after the install is finished
[20:51] <daftykins> yep, if it supports it after being installed
[20:52] <_VIM_> daftykins: I thought it was the new x server
[20:52] <daftykins> yeah newer X.org
[20:52] <daftykins> my bad, multi-tasking badly here
[20:52] <mucter> cause I got part way through the install then on reboot it said that the root mapped device didn't exist.
[20:52] <mucter> and since I'm an ubuntu n00b, here I am
[20:52] <mucter> lol
[20:52] <daftykins> sounds more like an install bug
[20:52] <Leonidas889> hi
[20:52] <deathtech> Hello all! Im currently running a VNC Server, on a Seperate Machine, and rather than create multiple desktops , i would like to Mirror the Current running desktop, is this poissible ?
[20:53] <treboko> hi, quick question. Got ext mic working, but dont want to hear it. Solution?
[20:53] <daftykins> mute it? ;)
[20:53] <treboko> no, you silly
[20:53] <red-lichtie_> treboko: Mic output volume to 0
[20:54] <ALonzo> hellowwwwwwwww
[20:54] <ALonzo> hellowsssssss
[20:54] <Dreamglider-> i have a disk with no partition table, gpart found 4 partitions and the one i need is apparently safe, now i want to copy the partition to my internal harddisk and be able to boot ubuntu, can it be done ?
[20:55] <_VIM_> !welcome | ALonzo
[20:55] <ALonzo> hola
[20:55] <ALonzo> Holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[20:56] <Pici> ALonzo: stop.
[20:56] <Ace2017_-> ALonzo: Hi
[20:56] <erUSUL> Dreamglider-: did you used gpart to writte the partition table?
[20:56] <istvan_> can I make folders with filters? the equivelent of a smart folder?
[20:57] <phantom1> hi all is anyone familiar with the problem that gnome has (editing tags from musik, ex: banshee isent able to aply them to the file)is there a warkaround or dose it function in kde?
[20:57] <ALonzo> Holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[20:57] <ALonzo> K paso
[20:57] <_VIM_> ALonzo: take the cat off the keyboard
[20:57] <ALonzo> como estas
[20:57] <istvan_> i want to say 'make a wip folder, any file that has been modified in the last XX days that is in these folders'
[20:57] <_VIM_> !es
[20:57] <ALonzo> Speak
[20:57] <Ace2017_-> phantom1: to edit tags you can use easytag to edit tags
[20:57] <ALonzo> spanish
[20:58] <_VIM_> ALonzo:  type /join #ubuntu-es
[20:58] <ALonzo> ok
[20:58] <ALonzo> Hellows Baby
[20:58] <_VIM_> O.o
[20:58] <ALonzo> What is name
[20:59] <Dreamglider-> erUSUL: i have not written any table yet i just scanned the disk for partitions and found the Ubuntu partion
[20:59] <istvan_> so.. smart folders anyone?
[20:59] <phantom1> Ace2017_-:im interested mostly in the rating (stars) so i nead a player that functions
[21:00] <erUSUL> Dreamglider-: well if you do not restore a partition table you wont be able to access the partition
[21:00] <Ace2017_-> phantom1: amarok has always been good at that, it also rates them on your listening habits
[21:00] <Dreamglider-> erUSUL: here is the output from gpart /dev/sdc -> http://pastebin.com/d5aea5905
[21:00] <Dreamglider-> erUSUL: i dont know how to restore a table
[21:00] <erUSUL> Dreamglider-: read gpart documentation
[21:01] <hunt577> Are Kubuntu and Ubuntu the same things?
[21:01] <phantom1> Ace2017_-:at the moment i had the same idear thanx
[21:01] <hunt577> Wondering if I should try Kubuntu since Ubuntu doesn't run good at all on this computer
[21:01] <Geek`N`Proud> hunt577, two different default package sets
[21:01] <Geek`N`Proud> Ubuntu uses GNOME
[21:01] <daejones> Can I use my ipod touch on ubuntu 8.10?
[21:01] <Geek`N`Proud> Kubuntu uses KDE
[21:02] <hunt577> oh ok Geek'N'Proud.
[21:02] <erUSUL> Dreamglider-: http://www.brzitwa.de/mb/gpart/index.html
[21:02] <hunt577> I have a HP G60 and it lags so bad on Ubuntu 8.10....
[21:02] <_VIM_> kubuntu will likely lag even more
[21:02] <Geek`N`Proud> hunt577, the low-level details are the same, the GUI and such is different
[21:02] <NDS|Brandon> Im getting an error described here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=999549&page=3 I dont have a DVD ROM DRIVE, any siggestions?
[21:02] <_VIM_> try xubuntu
[21:02] <hunt577> _VIM_ I will try xubuntu
[21:02] <hunt577> thanks
[21:02] <_VIM_> np
[21:03] <tiredbones> for some reason I'm unable to use sudo command. How does one change the password for root or  how do i get back the ability to use sudo?
[21:03] <Geek`N`Proud> hunt577, if you need something ultra-light then install LXDE and run that
[21:03] <jrib> tiredbones: pastebin
[21:03] <erUSUL> Dreamglider-: basically if everything looks ok from the scan is « sudo gpart -W /dev/sdc /dev/sdc »
[21:03] <Pici> tiredbones: sudo uses your password, not root's.
[21:03] <Geek`N`Proud> and don't download a new CD if you want Xubuntu either
[21:03] <Geek`N`Proud> just sudo apt-get xubuntu-desktop
[21:03] <_VIM_> that's even better, LXDE is good too
[21:03] <erUSUL> Dreamglider-: you can try testdisk too
[21:03] <killer_> untuforums
[21:03] <nivalis> hunt577, or even a minimal server install then add openbox or some other lightweight window manager
[21:03] <killer_> err
[21:03] <killer_> sorry
[21:03] <erUSUL> !info testdisk | Dreamglider-
[21:03] <NDS|Brandon> I have an external DVD drive, is it possible to boot from that?
[21:03] <hunt577> _VIM_ I have xubuntu installed already on the ubuntu 8.10 I installed....but I updated to xubuntu through ubuntu once it was already installed...you think a direct download of xubuntu would work better?
[21:04] <ALonzo> spanish
[21:04] <hunt577> without ubuntu already being in the mix
[21:04] <dougl> 8.04 = hardy heron right?
[21:04] <erUSUL> NDS|Brandon: USB ?
[21:04] <erUSUL> !es | ALonzo
[21:04] <NDS|Brandon> Yes
[21:04] <dirtbag> if i want to run xp under vmware, how does it work, do i install vmware first then install xp throught hat somehow, or do i just have to install xp on a new partition and then load that partition through vmware?
[21:04] <Geek`N`Proud> dougl, yes
[21:04] <Geek`N`Proud> !hardy > dougl
[21:04] <dougl> thanks
[21:04] <jrib> dirtbag: the first thing you said
[21:04] <tiredbones> Pici, I know that, but my password  doesn't work anymore for sudo.
[21:04] <Geek`N`Proud> dougl, that should confirm it
[21:04] <Geek`N`Proud> :P
[21:04] <dougl> yep
[21:04] <_VIM_> hunt577: sounds like you already have xubuntu then, if not try what Geek`N`Proud said above... sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[21:04] <Pici> tiredbones: Are you still in the admin group? (groups on a terminal should show you)
[21:04] <NDS|Brandon> I am considering giving up on Ubuntu :|
[21:05] <Geek`N`Proud> NDS|Brandon, what issues are you experiencing
[21:05] <NDS|Brandon> IT wont boot for me :\
[21:05] <hunt577> Thanks I will try LDX Geek'N'Proud
[21:05] <hunt577> LXDE* I mean
[21:05] <NDS|Brandon> I get an error of my I/O Device SR0
[21:05] <NDS|Brandon> And Booting from DVD isn't an option
[21:05] <sileni> hey guys i have a 16 gb ssd and it has xp preinstalled. i wanted to install ubuntu so i freed up 7.7 gb what partitions do i have ot make ?
[21:06] <rob_F> Greetings all  :)
[21:06] <NDS|Brandon> Its in the install
[21:06] <NDS|Brandon> Just follow it
[21:06] <Myrtti> NDS|Brandon: which one did you burn, the Desktop installation or the Alternate installation disc?
[21:06] <NDS|Brandon> Desktop
[21:07] <Geek`N`Proud> NDS|Brandon, Desktop is for new'ish boxes
[21:07] <tiredbones> Pici, here is the line from my /etc/group    adm:x:4:wayne,admin.
[21:07] <NDS|Brandon> Ohh :s
[21:07] <Myrtti> NDS|Brandon: now I don't know about would it help, but you could try burning the Alternate one and try if it works with that
[21:07] <nivalis> sileni. /, /swap (if you want to use swap on ssd), and a separate /home is always nice
[21:07] <NDS|Brandon> Ill tyr that too
[21:07] <NDS|Brandon> Someone mentioned: IRQPOLL ALL_GENERIC_IDE=1
[21:08] <NDS|Brandon> And that would help if it was my CD Drive
[21:08] <daejones> Can i use an ipod touch with ubuntu 8.10?
[21:08] <Geek`N`Proud> NDS|Brandon, Alternate uses a command-line installer, it's less friendly compared to a GUI but it's more reliable
[21:08] <jrib> daejones: depends what you mean by "use" really.  What firmware version?
[21:08] <NDS|Brandon> Ummm
[21:08] <Pici> tiredbones: I'm sorry, I need to deal with an issue here, try asking your question again and someone should answer you.
[21:08] <daejones> ah..2.2? lemme make sure
[21:08] <NDS|Brandon> Thats bad :\ I have no experience with Linux
[21:09] <tiredbones> Pici, thanks
[21:09] <Geek`N`Proud> NDS|Brandon, I managed it as a newbie
[21:09] <jrib> tiredbones: pastebin the command you are trying to sudo and the full output
[21:09] <Geek`N`Proud> when I first used Ubuntu there was no desktop CD
[21:09] <Geek`N`Proud> the normal CD was the alternate
[21:09] <NDS|Brandon> How hard is it ?
[21:09] <Geek`N`Proud> have you ever installed Windows?
[21:09] <ajhtiredwolf> Hey does anyone know of a way to broadcast your mp3 collection so that a client program can listen to it, sort of in the style of raidio but over the internet?
[21:09] <treboko> skype on laptop concern; no matter which option i choose, this devils work always uses built in mic instead of ext. Help? (mic is working and enabled)
[21:09] <ewook> Geek`N`Proud: erhm.. not to be rude, but everyone starts of with o knowledge sometime.
[21:09] <tiredbones> jrib, give me a sec.
[21:10] <ewook> NDS|Brandon: not hard at all now a days :)
[21:10] <NDS|Brandon> Yes Ive installed windows hundreds of times
[21:10] <nivalis> Geek `N`Proud, CLI is user-friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are :)
[21:10] <daejones> yeah version 2.2
[21:10] <Geek`N`Proud> NDS|Brandon, then you'll have no problem most likely =]
[21:10] <NDS|Brandon> Ok :)
[21:10] <NDS|Brandon> Ill try that to
[21:10] <NDS|Brandon> I really want Linux :\ But It seems to hate all my distros
[21:11] <brandon_> hello i tryed starting a ./conf file but it keeps telling me start: Need to be root what am i doing wrong
[21:11] <Scunizi> I just installed SWAT and I get nothing at localhost:931 or <IP_ADDRESS>:931.. what am I doing wrong?
[21:11] <jrib> brandon_: what exactly are you doing?
[21:11] <gogeta> bo
[21:11] <red-lichtie_> NDS|Brandon: What exactly are you trying to do `
[21:11] <NDS|Brandon> Trying to install it

[21:12] <brandon_> yes

[21:13] <NDS|Brandon> :
[21:13] <NDS|Brandon> |
[21:13] <Geek`N`Proud> brandon_, have you not built it yet?
[21:13] <jrib> daejones: if you jailbreak, you can ssh and transfer files that way.  You won't be able to sync your library though as the hash for the itunesdb hasn't been broken
[21:13] <jrib> !ipod | daejones
[21:14] <daejones> alright thanks for that
[21:14] <NDS|Brandon> Have you changed all the settings properly?
[21:14] <brandon_> i built it but i don't know how to run it
[21:14] <NDS|Brandon> :
[21:14] <NDS|Brandon> |
[21:14] <NDS|Brandon> Run the binary
[21:14] <brandon_> how
[21:14] <Geek`N`Proud> brandon_, have you done make and make install yet?
[21:14] <NDS|Brandon> and see if accepts what you have given it
[21:14] <brandon_> they have makefile.in
[21:15] <sileni> nivalis: yes that is what i did now i have 5.1 gb / .... 2 gb /home ... and 525 mb swap does that sound right? and both my / and /home are EXT3
[21:15] <Geek`N`Proud> brandon_, have you ran the commands make and make install yet?
[21:15] <brandon_> No
[21:15] <sam555> found easy reset instructions
[21:15] <sam555> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/recover-mysql-root-password.html
[21:15] <Geek`N`Proud> right.. okay
[21:15] <NDS|Brandon> I cant find the alternate :|
[21:15] <Geek`N`Proud> brandon_, first sudo apt-get install build-essential
[21:15] <Myrtti> !alternate
[21:15] <Geek`N`Proud> then ./Config
[21:16] <Geek`N`Proud> then make
[21:16] <Geek`N`Proud> then make install

[21:17] <daejones> any way to fix this?
[21:17] <IdentifyTarget> ok ty
[21:17] <Geek`N`Proud> depends on how how many packages you want to install from backports
[21:17] <NDS|Brandon> guys ill be back later

[21:19] <IdentifyTarget> Geek`N`Proud: normally I type apt-cache show lirc     to get the version number. How would I check the version number it is going to install via backports?

[21:25] <Rexie> hey.. I can't full screen streaming videos after I updated flash-nonfree thingy.. why is that? and what can I do to fix it?
[21:25] <Geek`N`Proud> when you're inside the Unreal3.2 directory
[21:25] <brandon_> but it says bash: ./Conf: No such file or directory
[21:25] <tiredbones> jrib, see you on the other side of reboot. thanks for your help!
[21:25] <brandon_> config
[21:25] <brandon_> not conf
[21:26] <Geek`N`Proud> are you inside the Unreal3.2 directory?
[21:26] <Geek`N`Proud> brandon_, try reading this  http://forum.totalpenguin.com/tutorials-guides-tips/1808-installing-unreal-ircd-source.html
[21:26] <Geek`N`Proud> that should help a lot
[21:26] <Geek`N`Proud> it shows you step by step what to do
[21:27] <tadayoshi_> #ubuntu-de
[21:27] <brandon_> should i type path/to/.config
[21:27] <Geek`N`Proud> no you should cd into the Unreal3.2 directory then do ./Config
[21:27] <Geek`N`Proud> and it's case-sensitive
[21:31] <avis> i have a simple bash script i've chmod +x to, it belongs to my user, and my user's crontab which i call up with crontab -e (without sudo) references that script location @hourly /home/user/Ubuntu/callthiscsript.sh but for some reason it wont run  i've tried a dot before /home.. and i've just now simply pointed to the .sh file haven't had a chance to see if it'll call the script
[21:31] <karlbrun> Does anyone know how to, using CloneZilla or some other means, create a full system restore disk?
[21:32] <brandon_> i don't know how to change the cd
[21:32] <brandon_> and it dose not say how to
[21:35] <tiredbones> jrib, how does one get the grub menu on reboot? Google info said to press the Esc key, that doesn't work.
[21:36] <Daniel_G> tiredbones: there is a chance your bios isn't detecting your keyboard, is it USB or seriel?
[21:36] <evil_tech> can some one point me to a good how-to on setting up and using SQUID
[21:36] <Rexie> hey.. I can't full screen streaming videos after I updated flash-nonfree thingy.. why is that? and what can I do to fix it?
[21:37] <Droopsta915> I want to slipstream a disk. is there something for ubuntu similar to nLite?
[21:37] <tiredbones> Daniel_G, it looks like serial.
[21:39] <Dr_willis_AAO> You mean you cant fullscreen 'flash' videos :)  - No idea on a fix. I find flash and some sites are often flakey and only let you full screen  when they decided you can. :(
[21:39] <Droopsta915> I want to slipstream a disk, what program can i use in ubuntu?
[21:40] <tiredbones> Daniel_G,  jrib from what i read on google i should be seeing the grub menu whenever i boot. is this correct
[21:40] <Dr_willis_AAO> Droopsta915,  you dont reall y 'slipstream' ubuntu. You can 'remaster' things.
[21:41] <Droopsta915> Dr_willis_AAO:I don't wantto slipstream ubuntu, I want to slipstream xp for my friends laptop. I don't want to go to windows to do this, Im trying to prove him wrong about Linux.
[21:43] <Droopsta915> tiredbones:have u got the grub bootloader fixed yet, if not i will help
[21:43] <liminal> hi
[21:43] <tiredbones> Droopsta915, no
[21:43] <liminal> my sound stopped working yesturday, and i have no idea why. does anyone have any good ideas for testing whats up?
[21:44] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal do you use 5.1 surround?
[21:44] <liminal>  no its a laptop
[21:44] <liminal> ive tried plugging external speakers in tho, still nothing
[21:44] <Droopsta915> tiredbones:Are you dual booting windows and Linux?
[21:44] <liminal> just linux
[21:45] <liminal> ubuntu 8.10 was working fine two days ago
[21:45] <tiredbones> Droopsta915, no, just distro 8.10
[21:45] <private> asshole
[21:46] <tiredbones> Droopsta915, i'm reading google now to see what i can do, but i think i need sudo to do anything.
[21:46] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal Im not on my linux box right now but i believe if you go to system preferences sound there should be a list of audaio devices
[21:46] <liminal> under audio devices?
[21:46] <evil_tech> can some one point me to a good how-to on setting up and using SQUID
[21:47] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal yeah, do you have moer than one?
[21:47] <liminal> i dont have an audio devices option under system>preferences
[21:47] <Droopsta915> tiredbones:whats wrong, Linux wont boot?
[21:47] <ajhtiredwolf> no
[21:47] <ajhtiredwolf> system/ preferences/sound
[21:48] <liminal> yeah i have sound
[21:48] <ajhtiredwolf> open it
[21:48] <sam555> does ubuntu already have phpmyadmin installed for 8.04?
[21:48] <liminal> when i run the tests i get nothing back
[21:48] <tiredbones> Droopsta915, no, I just can use sudo command anymore.
[21:48] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal at the bottum you see where it says devices?
[21:48] <brandon_> Geek`N`Proud i don't know how to change the cd
[21:49] <brandon_> and when i type ./Config it still wont work

[21:54] <kane77> hi, on my laptop I tried to enable magnifier in compizconfig and it said it needs to enable mouse polling so I enabled that and that restarted X.. now I cannot login.. it logs me in but restarts x, how do I disable compiz (or compiz) from command line?
[21:54] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal ive had this problem before im trying to remember what i did to fix it
[21:55] <Gnea> private: do you have a problem?
[21:55] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal i thin that i just googled that error message with my auudio device and i found the answer
[21:55] <tiredbones> Droopsta915, I can't do that because my passwrd is denied.
[21:55] <Gnea> tiredbones: are you a part of /etc/sudoers?
[21:56] <ZachFlem> hi folks, i need to connect to a VPN at my office, what should i install to do so?
[21:56] <tiredbones> Droopsta915, I can't execute any command where i need my password.
[21:56] <Gnea> ZachFlem: using what protocol?
[21:56] <ilovebrownies> Can someone help me with adding Arch to my Ubuntu GRUB?
[21:56] <liminal> ill love you if you have
[21:56] <ajhtiredwolf> anyone know of an alternative to icecast that supports mp3's? ice cast is a broadcasting server for music like an online radio
[21:56] <tiredbones> Gnea, i use to be. this is my home pc.
[21:56] <liminal> what is it?
[21:56] <ZachFlem> Gnea, no idea, it just works on the M$ laptop =)
[21:57] <davygrvy> are there boot options to set a hint port address of the cd-rom drive?  xubuntu installer can't find the cd-rom at step #3 even though it just loaded from it
[21:57] <Gnea> ZachFlem: lol, can you check to see what vpn software is being used/installed on it?
[21:57] <hb|work> anyone experience or know a fix for Xorg locking up with a black screen and some colorful static-looking bars at fairly frequent and random intervals?  I'm running intel graphics, and only ubuntu exhibits this behaviour
[21:57] <ZachFlem> Gnea, not at the moment, it's broken, that's why im using my personal laptop =(
[21:58] <Gnea> tiredbones: you need to be able to check to see if you're part of it or not - if you can't use another account on the system to check, then the livecd should be able to show it
[21:58] <Droopsta915> tiredbones:Do you need to recover your password?
[21:59] <ZachFlem> gnea, is there an option to install all the common protocols?
[21:59] <Gnea> ZachFlem: well, ubuntu supports several vpn solutions. you're probably using PPTP
[21:59] <Droopsta915> tiredbones: http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2007/09/recover-forgotten-ubuntu-password.html
[21:59] <Thirtysixway> is there an remote desktop connection client for Ubuntu that can connect to windows machines
[22:00] <Gnea> Thirtysixway: rdesktop, tsclient
[22:00] <ajhtiredwolf> Thirtysixway yes tightvnc
[22:00] <Thirtysixway> isn't vnc different?
[22:00] <ajhtiredwolf> Thirtysixway tightvnc can connect to remote windows machines
[22:01] <ajhtiredwolf> Thirtysixway but you have to install their software on it
[22:01] <tiredbones> Gnea and Droopsta915, i think i know what i did wrong. I add a user called admin. When I realized that my user password did authority was i then sign on as admin. things worked under admin. so i commented out the admin user in the passwrd file. when i sign back on to the system with my user ps, thing still didn't work. now I'm out of luck.
[22:01] <davygrvy> I looked at the boot options page <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions> but it doesn't mention much more than APIC options
[22:02] <tiredbones>  Droopsta915, no i still can use my ps.
[22:02] <Gnea> ZachFlem: something like this maybe.. http://adventuresinswitching.blogspot.com/2007/12/ubuntu-and-microsoft-vpn-setup-or-how-i.html

[22:02] <Vinceman> linux is not virusproof!
[22:02] <_VIM_> !ot | Vinceman
[22:03] <Vinceman> look _VIM_ that IS an ubuntu related question
[22:03] <ZachFlem> Gnea, just spoke to the Alcatel guru at work, it uses PPTP for client connections.
[22:03] <_VIM_> sounds more trollish than anything, what's your point?
[22:03] <_VIM_> !virus | Vinceman
[22:03] <oCean_> !virus | Vinceman
[22:03] <_VIM_> oCean_:  :P
[22:03] <Vinceman> I get some windows application wanting to download to my PC while on internet
[22:04] <Gnea> ZachFlem: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VPNClient  then you'll want the first option
[22:04] <davygrvy> are there boot options to set a hint port address of the cd-rom drive?  xubuntu installer can't find the cd-rom at step #3 even though it just loaded from it
[22:04] <ajhtiredwolf> linux is not idiot proof*
[22:04] <Dreamglider-> Can anyone help me to mount a partition on a disk where the partition table is lost ? the output from gpart /dev/sdc is here -> http://pastebin.com/d5aea5905 it's partition 2 that contains Ubuntu.
[22:04] <oCean_> _VIM_: yeah, I'm lagging a little, allbeit not technically - just tired :/
[22:04] <ZachFlem> Gnea, thanks! :)
[22:05] <tiredbones> Gnea and Droopsta915,  Thanks for your time. After supper I 'll try my to recover from installed cd.
[22:05] <Vinceman> _VIM_ someone messaged me with 'is this your picture?' and later on apologized it for being a virus, unfortunately I did click on the link, the browser said the address didn't exist though. Do you think I have a virus?
[22:05] <Dreamglider-> Sorry it's partition number 1 that i want to mount
[22:05] <Gnea> ZachFlem, tiredbones: cheers :)
[22:06] <ilovebrownies> Anyone? Adding Arch to Ubuntu GRUB?
[22:06] <_VIM_> Vinceman: doubt it, even *IF* you got a virus, it wont go anywhere as it will need root access to do any real harm...
[22:06] <Rexie> hey.. I can't full screen streaming videos after I updated flash-nonfree thingy.. why is that? and what can I do to fix it?
[22:06] <SilverBridge> i need a hand over here
[22:06] <jco> hi, what is the best way to get kde 3.5 on Ubuntu 8.10?
[22:06] <magnetron> ilovebrownies→ we don't know much about how to install Arch.
[22:06] <SilverBridge> someone might help
[22:06] <Vinceman> but since I'm the only user of this PC I am root and i did click the link
[22:06] <_VIM_> Vinceman: that's why viruses/spyware don't make it far in linux
[22:07] <SilverBridge> now i am trying to log on to the IRC
[22:07] <Gnea> ilovebrownies: it's just another OS that's linux-based on the system, right? it's just like adding any linux installation to grub
[22:07] <magnetron> SilverBridge→ just ask your question right out
[22:07] <SilverBridge> the old on in thathe ICQ c
[22:07] <SilverBridge> any one knows which server'
[22:07] <ajhtiredwolf> Vinceman you are not root, you are in the root group
[22:07] <_VIM_> why were you surfing the web as root Vinceman?
[22:07] <Vinceman> ok but I didn't sudo click it or whatever
[22:07] <SilverBridge> magnetron,
[22:07] <ajhtiredwolf> _VIM_ I think he means that he can use root through his user
[22:07] <SilverBridge> Can u help with that
[22:07] <SilverBridge> ?
[22:07] <SilverBridge> i tried IRCnet
[22:07] <rmrfslash> Anyone have a Dell XPS M1530?
[22:07] <magnetron> SilverBridge→ just ASK THE CHANNEL YOUR QUESTION
[22:07] <SilverBridge> well i did
[22:07] <Vinceman> ajhtiredwolf, yes with sudo
[22:08] <SilverBridge> i used to chat at  the server irc.icq.com
[22:08] <Gnea> !enter | SilverBridge
[22:08] <magnetron> SilverBridge→ in one line, please
[22:08] <Vinceman> can anyone use root with sudo? or only the root group users?
[22:08] <ajhtiredwolf> Vinceman that isn't quite the same thing. You should be fine
[22:08] <SilverBridge> and now i cannt log in to it from here
[22:08] <SilverBridge> cause i got no clue what is the server name
[22:08] <rmrfslash> only users in the "wheel" or "admin" group
[22:08] <liminal> ajhitiredwolf?
[22:08] <_VIM_> Vinceman: I think you'll be fine :)
[22:08] <Gnea> SilverBridge: stop. back up. ask it all on one line, please. it's easier to get help that way.
[22:08] <SilverBridge> ok
[22:08] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal yes?
[22:08] <liminal> google hasnt helped me with my sond
[22:08] <liminal> sound
[22:09] <davygrvy> are there boot options to set a hint port address of the cd-rom drive?  xubuntu installer can't find the cd-rom at step #3 even though it just loaded from it
[22:09] <yoyit2> how to i format my 2GB flash drive??
[22:09] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal did you google that error message plus the namee of your uadio device?
[22:09] <funkyHat> rmrfslash: isn't wheel the group that has su root permissions?
[22:09] <rmrfslash> or the root group
[22:09] <rmrfslash> you know what, I'm not sure about the diff between wheel and admin
[22:09] <SilverBridge> i used to chat be4 using the mIRC , from windows , i used to type in the command line /server irc.icq.com , now i tried to log in into the same server using the Xchat , but seems i cannt find the same server with the same channels i used to chat at
[22:10] <ajhtiredwolf> liminal all i remember is that my issue was that I had to set it to use Multichannel playback
[22:10] <SilverBridge> mmmmmmm
[22:11] <dieselsmoke> funkyHat: I believe the 'admin' group is what you want. e.g. sudo adduser user admin  --adds user to admin group
[22:11] <dirtbag> i search for vmware on apt, but i'm not sure which package i need to install. any suggestions?
[22:11] <funkyHat> dieselsmoke: I think you're right, someone else was asking though...
[22:12] <oCean_> !vmware | dirtbag
[22:12] <dieselsmoke> funkyHat: oh, sorry dude
[22:12] <dieselsmoke> rmrfslash: I believe the 'admin' group is what you want. e.g. sudo adduser user admin  --adds user to admin group
[22:12] <dirtbag> !vmware
[22:12] <Gnea> SiliconViper: what's different with xchat?
[22:12] <davygrvy> !bootoptions
[22:12] <Gnea> oops
[22:12] <rmrfslash> or usermod -a -G admin user
[22:12] <Certh> vmware can be installed from rpm after transforming it with alien -c command
[22:12] <funkyHat> dieselsmoke: np :) thanks for being less lazy than me and actually scrolling back to see who it was ;)
[22:12] <davygrvy> !bootoptions more
[22:12] <Gnea> SiliconViper: sorry, mis-msg
[22:13] <ajhtiredwolf> dirtbag i wold recommend virtualbox, but not the OSE
[22:13] <rmrfslash> to append the admin as a group for user
[22:13] <dirtbag> vboxgtk?
[22:13] <dieselsmoke> rmrfslash: I thank you then :)
[22:13] <Vinceman> why is open source code a tough place for a virus to hide?
[22:13] <ajhtiredwolf> dirtbag http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
[22:14] <oCean_> !virus > Vinceman
[22:14] <dieselsmoke> Vinceman: because someone will find the problem and fix the source.
[22:14] <Vinceman> ok, I suppose open source is meant to be edited and checked completely
[22:14] <oDesk> hello,  wine --version #-> wine-0.9.46  and it seems the latest into ubuntu repositores could i install wine-1.1.16 though the system repository ?
[22:14] <threepwood> is it bad practice to run files off an external HD?
[22:14] <ajhtiredwolf> Vinceman not all open source software is more secure
[22:14] <amgarchIn9> hi, when I tar/untar a root partition to a new disk, how do I fix all those UIDs in grub/menu.lst and fstab?
[22:14] <dieselsmoke> Vinceman: open means everyone has access to the code, microsoft is secret, only they can fix things.
[22:15] <dirtbag> thnc ajhtiredwolf
[22:15] <Vinceman> but if some virus maker hacks a repository he can infect all the open source on it
[22:15] <dieselsmoke> Vinceman: checksums would spot that, and gpg key sigs
[22:15] <_VIM_> thats what the gpg keys are for
[22:15] <oCean_> Vinceman: read the link i (ubottu) send. That explains technically
[22:16] <davygrvy> are there boot options to set a hint port address of the cd-rom drive?  xubuntu installer can't find the cd-rom at step #3 even though it just loaded from it
[22:16] <threepwood> why doesnt microsoft just buy java
[22:16] <Vinceman> I'm reading it right now, the question came from it
[22:16] <threepwood> they would pwn linux
[22:16] <threepwood> lol
[22:16] <threepwood> microsoft is one of the biggest corps in the world when it comes time to squash linux they will
[22:16] <dieselsmoke> Vinceman: Sun Systems aren't stupid. my guess
[22:16] <oCean_> !ot
[22:16] <Koenigsegg> I've managed to start 8.10 for the first time without nvidia gfx driver errors(needed linux headers and restricted modules). But Screen resolution says my max resolution is still 1024x768. Nvidia X server settings is a bit nicer, 1360x768. Hardware driver routines(not 100% sure about the english menu name here) says I can only use v173 och 177, while Synaptic says I've got nvidia-glx-180 installed(I did apt-get). I'm missing something here, but I'm to
[22:16] <_VIM_> stay on topic please, this isnt the place for Microsoft Vs. Linux
[22:16] <Koenigsegg> o new on all this to see it. Help?
[22:17] <ajhtiredwolf> they cant squash linux,  its open sour and community maintained, they have no way of squashing it
[22:17] <dieselsmoke> _VIM_: begging to differ, open source leads directly to the value of ubuntu, linux in general. the defense rests :)
[22:17] <threepwood> canonical is for-profit though
[22:18] <neal__> well they could just remove fat support
[22:18] <threepwood> microsoft says heres $500 million the owner sells it and bam offline
[22:18] <_VIM_> well #ubuntu isn't the place for OS wars
[22:18] <ajhtiredwolf> threepwood there isnt just one linux distro
[22:18] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg, try starting the nvidia config app with sudo:  sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-settings
[22:18] <mrwes> how can you squash a squash file system? heh
[22:18] <threepwood> it's true, im just speculating
[22:18] <mrwes> sorry...couldn't resist
[22:18] <neal__> well use other file systems
[22:18] <dieselsmoke> _VIM_: agreed but it wasn't a war, merely stating fact.
[22:19] <oDesk> wine --version #-> wine-0.9.46  and it seems the latest into ubuntu repositores could i install wine-1.1.16 though the system repository ?
[22:19] <_VIM_> dieselsmoke: ok let's let it rest.
[22:19] <dirtbag> hmm, how do i add a user to a new group?
[22:19] <_VIM_> before the ops come in here with those huge !OT Hammers ;)
[22:19] <ajhtiredwolf> add user group
[22:19] <dirtbag> ahh nvm, i didn't notice the unlock button
[22:19] <dieselsmoke> dirtbag: sudo adduser user group
[22:20] <dirtbag> will remember the command line though
[22:20] <dirtbag> thnx again
[22:20] <funkyHat> dieselsmoke: doesn't that make that group the primary group for the user?
[22:21] <dieselsmoke> funkyHat: probably, adduser with typical flags should be done first.
[22:21] <davygrvy> are there boot options to set a hint port address of the cd-rom drive?  xubuntu installer can't find the cd-rom at step #3 even though it just loaded from it
[22:22] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: Thanks, it seems to be starting and all, but it says my max res is 1360x768, and I used to have 1600 width on windows, I get the feeling that something's still wrong..
[22:22] <Huufarted> Anybody know how to prevent Gnome (and X Windows I assume) from Loading on 8.10?  I set up a server using Ubuntu Desktop, but it's headless so I don't need the GUI.
[22:23] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg:  does the nvidia config app have 1600 even listed?
[22:23] <ajhtiredwolf> Huufartedi guess you could just remove gnome
[22:23] <Huufarted> ajhtiredwolf: I'd rather just prevent Gnome from running.  Any ideas?
[22:23] <Joushou> Hmm, i have a quick question before i go to sleep, that google won't help me with... When setting kernel boot-param vga to 37d, usplash's resolution gets messed up... any ideas why?
[22:24] <dirtbag> ajhtiredwolf, where  in the menu does vrtualbox appear onc eit's installed? i'm not finding it :\
[22:24] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg:  it might be a pnp monitor thing
[22:24] <LjL> Huufarted: sudo update-rc.d gdm remove
[22:24] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: Nope, 1360x768 is at the top of the list. It's better than before though, before I got linux headers, restricted modules and nvidia glx 180 the max was 1024x768 I think.
[22:24] <ajhtiredwolf> dirtbag applications system tools
[22:24] <LjL> Huufarted: (if you're using GDM, which is the default, as your login manager)
[22:24] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: Possible. But I hope not, I've no idea how to fix that =|
[22:24] <ajhtiredwolf> dirtbag or just type virtualbox in a console
[22:25] <LjL> Huufarted: besides haven't you considered using Server given it's, well, a server?
[22:25] <Huufarted> LjL, it is the same.
[22:25] <LjL> Huufarted: kernel's slightly different
[22:25] <Huufarted> LjL, from what I understand, the only difference is the default installed apps and gdm.
[22:25] <ajhtiredwolf> LjL the server versino has a GUI as well now
[22:25] <LjL> Huufarted: also, you get less cruft installed that isn't relevant to a server
[22:25] <Huufarted> LjL, do you know how it's different?  NVM, i can go look it up
[22:25] <LjL> ajhtiredwolf: it does?
[22:25] <thecookie> How would I install a version of a package that's not "stable" for my current release (a version of php later than 5.2.6)
[22:25] <Huufarted> LjL, cruft?
[22:25] <NativeAngels> is there a free version of plesk anywhere or something like it
[22:25] <ajhtiredwolf> LjL yeah, which is kinda lame i think
[22:25] <LjL> Huufarted: not entirely - it does have the PAE extension enabled, i know that much
[22:26] <LjL> Huufarted: GUI apps and such... i didn't mean cruft in a negative sense, just as stuff that a server won't need
[22:26] <davismj> !ask
[22:26] <davismj> will do
[22:26] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg:  as the saying goes, it should all just work ;)  max for me is 1920x1200 on my old 7800GTX, for which my monitor can NOT do
[22:26] <funkyHat> NativeAngels: the closest thing is probably webmin
[22:26] <LjL> ajhtiredwolf: do you have a pointer to the specific changes and/or the rationale for me?
[22:26] <sputnik> hey... anybody familiar with trackerd?
[22:26] <ajhtiredwolf> LjL negatory, i just have it installed on one of my servers
[22:27] <NativeAngels> im usin that
[22:27] <Joushou> Is there anyone that might know why setting the vga kernel-param, might mess up usplash-resolution (stetched vertically)?
[22:27] <NativeAngels> how easy it to setup zones on webmin
[22:27] <amonkey> i'm trying to mount a raid1 set of 2 disks, but for some reason i see both disks as devices for mount. can I just mount one of them or is there something I have to do so that it uses both of them as raid?
[22:27] <LjL> !webmin | NativeAngels
[22:27] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg:  does CRT-1 have the correct name of your monitor?
[22:28] <NativeAngels> !ebox
[22:28] <corey> Someone told me to check the repositories. what does that mean?
[22:28] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: That would be nice, right ;-j.. I've got a 8800GT, so I'm pretty much convinced..
[22:28] <funkyHat> Oh, my bad
[22:28] <LjL> NativeAngels: actually, i think there's yet another alternative to ebox as ebox is likely still broken on intrepid. the name escapes me though
[22:28] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: Is that in nvidia x sverver settings? Checking
[22:28] <NativeAngels> ok
[22:29] <corey> Someone told me to check the repositories. what does that mean?
[22:29] <ajhtiredwolf> hey can you combine two satas on a raid after ubuntu has already been installed on one?
[22:29] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg:  under GPU1, should list the monitor.  Yeah, something is wrong
[22:29] <Tapout> damn, everytime I get this ;  [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.  .... I end up being frozen, gotta reboot :(
[22:29] <daftykins> ajhtiredwolf, you could probably create a RAID 1, by telling the controller to copy from one to the other
[22:29] <daftykins> but the default behaviour is to wipe any disk involved in a RAID array
[22:29] <oCean_> !repos | corey
[22:30] <corey> ajhtiredwolf: Short answer : no . if you can it would be dangerous
[22:30] <dieselsmoke> corey: the repositories are 'mirrors' in which you get all your updates and program packages.
[22:30] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: *sigh* =[.. I don't even have GPU1, only X screen 0 and GPU 0..
[22:30] <ajhtiredwolf> daftykins corey that is kinda what i figured... i just REALLY dont want to redo my mythserver when I upgraded to my terrabyte drive haha
[22:30] <NDS|Brandon> :S Why does Ubuntu hate me ;'(
[22:30] <corey> dieselsmoke: is that similar to the add/remove programs tab?
[22:31] <corey> ajhtiredwolf: What kind of RAID do you want?
[22:31] <ajhtiredwolf> corey just want to combine the terrabyte drive to my existing 500g because ftp has run out of space
[22:31] <oCean_> NDS|Brandon: I honestly cannot tell you to ask a question, since yours is one :) However, you might want to share some details. And see if anyone here can help
[22:31] <ajhtiredwolf> corey troble is i also use it as a myhtserveer music server and ssh server so wiping and reformatting will be a pain
[22:32] <dieselsmoke> corey: yes, thats where they can be installed from, they are populated from the enabled repositories, look in 'synaptic'settings, repositories. in your menu.
[22:32] <omega260> anybody here konw how to disable ssh in ubuntu?
[22:32] <daftykins> ajhtiredwolf, just plug in the new drive and setup everything storage wise to be on that drive
[22:32] <daftykins> instead of on the internal one
[22:32] <daftykins> *500GB
[22:32] <corey> ajhtiredwolf: You wouldnt want to do that. There is no point in installing a RAID unless you want increased performance or redundancy. For you mythserver the bottle neck is network performance not HDD performance.
[22:33] <syntac> hi, i have an X11 server running on a remote system and ubuntu on my laptop. is there a way i can view X from the rmeote system on my laptop (remotely)?  Something like 'remote desktop' in windows
[22:33] <ajhtiredwolf> daftykins I could seperate the mythserver to the 500gig and the storage on the terrabyte but I dont think thta I can create an ftp home directory on the terrabyte drive, i had problems with that in the past
[22:33] <omega260> how do i disable ssh on ubuntu so i do not get hacked?
[22:33] <danbhfive> omega260: can't you just remove it?
[22:33] <ajhtiredwolf> corey  i would be upgraind for more space not for performance
[22:33] <_VIM_> omega260: unless port 22 is open i wouldnt worry too much, or just remove it
[22:34] <omega260> how to i remove it?
[22:34] <NDS|Brandon> :) Ok heres some details, I have a Dell Optiplex GX260 and I am trying to install Ubuntu, but I get to the point where teh desktop loads and get the following erroe: "Buffer I/O Error on Device SR0, Logical Block 357794" I burned on the lowest possible speed 16x and I cant see why my PC is rejecting it
[22:34] <_VIM_> assuming you have it on 22
[22:34] <dieselsmoke> syntac: look in the menu, system, preferences, remote desktop. and set it up.
[22:34] <davismj> where would i go to ask a question about alpha 5 network manager
[22:34] <oCean_> omega260: I don't think the ssh server is installed by default (on desktop) but you could remove it from startup, or remove it completely
[22:34] <omega260> i installed it
[22:34] <omega260> but i do not know what im doing
[22:34] <danbhfive> davismj: #ubuntu+1
[22:34] <omega260> so i think its best to take it off for now
[22:34] <ajhtiredwolf> omega260 just apt-get remove ssh
[22:34] <corey> ajhtiredwolf: then dont worry about RAID. I do recomend playing around with a RAID array though. It is amazing to see performance actually double!
[22:34] <omega260> oh sweet thaks
[22:34] <danbhfive> anyone know how to collect error data from dmesg when the harddrive is locked up?
[22:34] <syntac> dieselsmoke: am i setting it up on the remote machine or on my local machine? I tried that already and it said could not connect and had something to do with port 5900
[22:35] <ajhtiredwolf> omega260 it might be ssh-server
[22:35] <sputnik> hey, can trackerd index email under ubuntu?
[22:35] <dieselsmoke> syntac: set remote desktop to allow, on the remote box.
[22:35] <sputnik> can't get the @#$ thing to work, with either evolution or thunderbird
[22:35] <ajhtiredwolf> corey the problem is for some reason you cant have a uservers home dir in an external drive
[22:35] <syntac> dieselsmoke: it isn't running gnome, i am using the 'awesome' window manager
[22:35] <WorldBFree> anybody tried booting the alternate .iso straight from the hd?
[22:35] <NDS|Brandon> :) Ok heres some details, I have a Dell Optiplex GX260 and I am trying to install Ubuntu, but I get to the point where teh desktop loads and get the following erroe: "Buffer I/O Error on Device SR0, Logical Block 357794" I burned on the lowest possible speed 16x and I cant see why my PC is rejecting it
[22:36] <corey> ajhtiredwolf: then make it internal...
[22:36] <_VIM_> omega260: I think its openssh-server and openssh-client
[22:36] <daftykins> NDS|Brandon, that usually happens when the CD drive is faulty or just plain can't read the disc properly
[22:36] <qknight> schmidtm_: huhu
[22:36] <dieselsmoke> syntac: then I can't help you much, the server uses vino-server, the client viewer is vinagre
[22:36] <NDS|Brandon> Well, my CD Drive is impossible to change
[22:36] <daftykins> it can also happen when the disk drives are configured incorrectly within a PATA/IDE system
[22:37] <daftykins> that's one of those little Dell's with a laptop style drive isn't it?
[22:37] <NDS|Brandon> yes
[22:37] <NDS|Brandon> :|
[22:37] <NDS|Brandon> I have an external drive
[22:37] <qknight> schmidtm_: hab dir das falsch gesagt: cubic ist jetzt default im kernel nicht reno, siehe: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUBIC_TCP
[22:37] <NDS|Brandon> But the BIOS doesnt support USB BOOT
[22:37] <qknight> schmidtm_: und sag mir bei gelegenheit mal dein jabber account im query  ;-)
[22:38] <yoyit2> i have a 2GB flash drive.. its completely empty but it says that im using 700MBs
[22:38] <_VIM_> !de
[22:38] <oCean_> !de | qknight
[22:38] <qknight> oh sorry
[22:38] <guntbert> !de |
[22:38] <_VIM_> gotcha again oCean_ :P
[22:38] <danbhfive> NDS|Brandon: is your computer really old?
[22:38] <oCean_> _VIM_: yes!
[22:38] <melik> hey would anyone be willing to help me out for a quick second, they just have to help test my SSH daemon :$, it'll take like 2 minutes tops.
[22:38] <_VIM_> :)
[22:38] <NDS|Brandon> no itsnot really old
[22:38] <Tapout> For a newer ati driver, do you go to ati.com's website and download it or is there usually a package containing the latest video drivers?
[22:38] <NDS|Brandon> :\
[22:38] <NDS|Brandon> Its only like 2 years old
[22:39] <NDS|Brandon> :s
[22:39] <guntbert> !ot | melik
[22:39] <ajhtiredwolf> corey i mean a drive besides where the OS is installed
[22:39] <Zoimaru> Hello people i have installed Xubuntu on a Mac but now i have problems makin' the iSight working can u help me?
[22:39] <oCean_> NDS|Brandon: sometimes changing dma mode might help. (bios thing)
[22:39] <LinMint-Cholo> NDS|Brandon do you know it doesnt support usb boot or can you just not get it to work?
[22:39] <omega260> thanks its removing it il learn how to remote connect when i feel more comfortabl working in linux
[22:39] <MalfermitaKodo> Hi! Y'all!
[22:40] <daftykins> hai
[22:40] <danbhfive> NDS|Brandon: I ask because the few newer computer Ive come across support usb booting.  My computer is only a few years old, and the way it is supported is kinda obscure.  I have to have the device plugged in, then select harddisk as the first device to boot, then select my usb drive as the harddrisk to boot.
[22:40] <corey> ajhtiredwolf: that is a problem then. It sounds like a RAID solution is your only hope. It may be easier to just back everything up and reinstall
[22:40] <qknight> schmidtm_: this is the device i meant: http://www.alwaysinnovating.com/home/index.htm
[22:40] <WorldBFree> i have the alternate iso downloaded.  i have extracted vmlinuz and initrd.  i have changed grub accordingly but yet it still asks me for the cd location when it boots for install
[22:40] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg:  my fault, I meant GPU0
[22:40] <MalfermitaKodo> How can I upgrade to a newer version of subversion (pun not intended)?
[22:40] <ajhtiredwolf> corey aye, but i might as well screw with it first before wiping heh.
[22:40] <Rexie> hey.. I can't full screen streaming videos after I updated flash-nonfree thingy.. why is that? and what can I do to fix it?
[22:40] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: Wahey, you're alive :). Checking
[22:41] <danbhfive> MalfermitaKodo: have you checked getdeb.net?
[22:41] <NDS|Brandon> So the How do I boot from it :|
[22:41] <LaNCeloT_RW> Hi guys, i got a problem on my laptop: I used to have 8.04 but (now using Vista) and I'm now trying to install 8.10 .. but, it doenst even boot! Sometimes i get into live CD but as soon as I open an application or something it crashes my laptop. The laptop completely turns off... and I have to unplugg and plug it again several time to the power cable. Any 1 knows about this?
[22:41] <corey> ajhtiredwolf: there must be a way to get it to do what you want... Are you an experienced linux user?
[22:41] <NDS|Brandon> I have the alternate one downloading
[22:41] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: Display devices: CRT-0 (CRT-0)
[22:41] <Zoimaru> Sombody have installed linux on a mac?
[22:41] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: Was that what you wanted?
[22:41] <MalfermitaKodo> danbhfive: I did now, no hits
[22:42] <corey> zoimaru: yes, i have
[22:42] <sergius> hello
[22:42] <ajhtiredwolf> corey semi, the problem is that you can't create links to a secondary partitioned drive in linux
[22:42] <Zoimaru> corey wich mac version do u have?
[22:42] <danbhfive> NDS|Brandon: well, my implied suggestion would be to play around with your bios, and see if you can find the setting somewhere.  O, and btw, you need livecd version I think.
[22:42] <Lisimba> Can I configure ubuntu to not wake up (from suspend) when I open the lid of my laptop, but instead to wait until I hit the power button?
[22:42] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: did you make the disk that youre using to install?
[22:42] <NDS|Brandon> I have the livecdversion
[22:42] <corey> zoimaru: iBook, I was going to ask the same of you
[22:42] <NDS|Brandon> And I have the alternate downloading
[22:42] <Zoimaru> :P
[22:43] <NDS|Brandon> so once that finishes Ill play around in the bios
[22:43] <danbhfive> MalfermitaKodo: well, you could install the package from jaunty maybe, but thats totally unsupported.  The other option is to upgrade to jaunty, and that is not yet supported :p
[22:43] <yoyit2> how do i  free up space on my flash drive, beaause it says its already empty
[22:43] <yoyit2> HELP!!
[22:43] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: yes, I just downloaded ubuntu from their website, burnt the cd and put into the drive... :) I tried MInt as well (with the same Re-Writable CD)
[22:43] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: I've already tried to turn off ACPI LAPCI and other F6 options from boot menu
[22:44] <corey> yoyit2: I already did. Your problem has been solved.
[22:44] <NDS|Brandon> Is 16x to fast to burn a cd?
[22:44] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg:  yeah, was off screen for a bit..  I don't understand why the nvidia driver doesn't offer you any high resolutions
[22:44] <emma> test
[22:44] <MalfermitaKodo> danbhfive: you see, I come from Gentoo and know that you can there selectively install unstable packages... is this possible in Ubuntu as well? I tried many options in synaptic but couldn't find something like that
[22:44] <emma> what's this?
[22:44] <corey> nds|brandon: no. slower is better though
[22:44] <Pricey> emma: I'm sure there are other channels you can test in.
[22:44] <davygrvy> Koenigsegg:  g2g
[22:44] <MalfermitaKodo> Can I have some pointers?
[22:44] <Pricey> NDS|Brandon: Probably. Depends on the drive and disk i guess.
[22:44] <Koenigsegg> davygrvy: Makes two of us then. Thanks anyway
[22:44] <emma> Pricey something is confusing here.
[22:45] <saywatmang> im trying to use chkconfig to disable some daemons but insserv keeps telling  me there is a loop between services and exiting w/o making any changes
[22:45] <yoyit2> corey: sorry i dont see it
[22:45] <NDS|Brandon> :s
[22:45] <guntbert> !welcome | emma
[22:45] <saywatmang> is there any way to get around this or do i have to fix this loop manually ?
[22:45] <LinMint-Cholo> first problem LaNCeloT_RW: i wouldnt use a rewritable for a boot disk.
[22:45] <emma> This is not #ubuntu though.
[22:45] <Guest13512> What program do I need to convert a movie from avi to mp4?
[22:45] <emma> here I am in #ubuntu yes?
[22:45] <Zoimaru> yes
[22:45] <MalfermitaKodo> emma: yes
[22:45] <Pricey> emma: Yes.
[22:45] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: get a dvd-r or dvd+r and then put the iso file on there
[22:45] <emma> This is making no sense.
[22:45] <Pricey> emma: /redraw
[22:45] <NDS|Brandon> :s
[22:45] <corey> yoyit2: to free up space you delete stuff
[22:46] <danbhfive> MalfermitaKodo: no, at least not in a supported manner.  Try going to packages.ubuntu.com      and then directly download and install whatever you want.  The only generally supported method of upgrading in Ubuntu is to wait for the next release (backports being the exception)
[22:46] <NDS|Brandon> So if I cant boot from USB my only option is to keep trying?
[22:46] <yoyit2> corey: i know.. i have but it says i still have stuff on it
[22:46] <emma> I've started a query with #ubuntu and I'm seeing chat here, but I still see chat in #ubuntu but it does not match.
[22:46] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: will Ubuntu boot from the .iso file on a DVD ??? Don't need to "burn iso to cd" ?
[22:46] <funkyHat> MalfermitaKodo: you can try a couple of things :there may be a ppa with a newver version of the software you want, or it might be in the backports repository (in which case you could use pinning to put backports at a lower priority for most packages, and then pin the package you want higher
[22:46] <corey> yoyit2: did you try to format it? Try on a different machine
[22:46] <MalfermitaKodo> funkyHat: what is ppa?
[22:46] <yoyit2> corey: i delted everything including the hidden trash folder.. yet it says it still has 700MBs on it
[22:46] <Guest13512> What program do I need to convert a movie from avi to mp4?
[22:47] <NDS|Brandon> Reformat?
[22:47] <kane77> hi, on my laptop I tried to enable magnifier in compizconfig and it said it needs to enable mouse polling so I enabled that and that restarted X.. now I cannot login.. it logs me in but restarts x, how do I disable compiz (or compiz) from command line?
[22:47] <NDS|Brandon> :s
[22:47] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: or do I need to burn the image to the DVD ?
[22:47] <Dr_willis_AAO> Guest13512,  ffmpeg, mencoder,  and perhaps front ends  for those command line tools.
[22:47] <NDS|Brandon> Is installing inside windows bad?
[22:47] <yoyit2> corey: when i use gparted on it, it comes up with an error right before it does the fat32
[22:47] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: yes, dvds are the best to use for isos, just dont get a dvd-r|W|, cant be rewritable
[22:48] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: are you using power2go to burn the iso?
[22:48] <Guest13512> is there any graphical ? Im new user of a linux and I hope I won't handle with this in console ^^
[22:48] <guntbert> emma: "with #ubuntu and I'm seeing chat here, but I still see chat in #ubuntu but ..." doesn't make sense to me, what is your problem?
[22:48] <corey> yoyit2: dont use gparted then! I really do suggest trying a different computer to
[22:48] <yoyit2> and if i dont have another pc?
[22:48] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: I use DeepBurner to burn ISO... but I think I can burn the "cd iso" on a DVD even it's diff. media
[22:48] <yoyit2> corey: if i dont have one??
[22:49] <funkyHat> MalfermitaKodo: ppas are personal package archives, they are extra package repositories available on launchpad.net
[22:49] <Dr_willis_AAO> Guest13512,  theres front ends to those tools.. or read some guides on how to use them. there are plenty of examples on theur ussage online
[22:49] <corey> yoyit2: I know nerds are antisocial but, you should have at least one friend
[22:49] <emma> guntbert -- I typed /query #ubuntu by accident. It's opened up this window (in irssi) I already had #ubuntu open in another window (I meant to type /join #ubuntu). Now I see this chat here (but cannot tab complete) and the chat in the #ubuntu channel but they don't match up!
[22:49] <Dr_willis_AAO> Guest13512,  or try avidmux (in the repos) , or winff. (not in the repos)
[22:50] <Dr_willis_AAO> !find avid
[22:50] <Dr_willis_AAO> avidEmux :)
[22:50] <MalfermitaKodo> funkyHat: ty!
[22:50] <salmon> hey having a problem i can't seem to find anything on; on the net... when i try to run the updater, synaptic, anything like that i get this message     E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
[22:50] <salmon> E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_hardy-updates_main_binary-i386_Packages

[22:50] <corey> yoyit2: try to free up space from within a live cd
[22:51] <NDS|Brandon> Is running Ubuntu from within XP ok :s
[22:51] <NDS|Brandon> Or will it still run slow
[22:51] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: i just wouldnt depend on a cd or cd-rw for booting, data might have trouble on there. whats happening when youre booting up also almost sounds like youre booting on a virtual drive, you arent installing it inside windows are you?
[22:51] <spiritwalker> why i cant make compiz-icon starup when the ubuntu starts and when the system is fully charged i can????
[22:51] <funkyHat> MalfermitaKodo: generally googling for '*program name* ppa' will find the most useful info :)
[22:51] <emma> Yes this is very unusual I'm closing this window :)
[22:52] <guntbert> emma: on freenode there can be only one channel named #ubuntu, I have no idea what /query does. I suggest you close that other channel and ask your questions here :)
[22:52] <spiritwalker> does any one knows
[22:52] <emma> guntbert: yeah I have it synced appropriately now. It was very twilight zone. Apparently there would be chat while I was observing it, but no chat while I was not observing it.
[22:52] <CppIsWeird> just double checking, if I rsync -rctv /dir1 /dir2, dir2 will be an exact replica of dir1, correct?
[22:53] <guntbert> emma: nice, do you have a support question?
[22:53] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: I'm booting it as usual... just put the cd on drive, start live cd (since installation is inside live cd) then it crashes, the laptop just turns off COMPLETELY, even the leds turn off! =/
[22:53] <salmon> so whenever i try to run synaptic or the updater, i get this error message. http://paste.ubuntu.com/126959/ and i don't know what to do to fix it. can someone please help me
[22:53] <deany> Guest13512, ffmpeg -i inputfile.avi -vcodec libx264 -b 800k  -acodec libfaac -ab 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 outfile.mp4
[22:54] <ziroday> salmon: try do sudo apt-get clean, and then sudo apt-get update
[22:54] <Dr_willis_AAO> amazing :) i actually know enought to know what that command did deany  :)
[22:54] <salmon> ziroday, will give that a shot
[22:55] <sprinkmeier_> CppIsWeird, I use "rsync --archive --verbose --dry-run", check the output, then drop the "--dry-run"
[22:55] <nigtv> Im wondering, im running in console only without x, and there is a web page: www.kennethkirschner.com, with links on it to many mp3's, but the links are named differently than the mp3s they link to. In w3m, i can press SHIFT+L to show all of the links, but i cant copy them, and i need the entire list so i can wget it
[22:55] <anti_theocon> hey!
[22:55] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: and when boot is going to start I can read something like no APCI connected or something like this... but since I used to have 8.04 running on this laptop I think it should be ok running 8.10 ...
[22:55] <nigtv> I would just use wget, but i cannot use wildcards
[22:55] <anti_theocon> help with quanta?
[22:56] <guntbert> !ask | anti_theocon
[22:56] <Dr_willis_AAO> I thouhgt you quoted wildcards with wget... or i may be mistaken :)
[22:56] <salmon> ziroday, so i tried that and got this "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[22:56] <salmon> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[22:56] <salmon> "
[22:56] <Dr_willis_AAO> otherwise the shell expands the  wildcards
[22:56] <nigtv> is there any way to just like show all the links on the page and export that to txt
[22:56] <anti_theocon> tnx...the help menu is not working in quanta, and i'm running gnome
[22:56] <nigtv> no, you cannot use wildcards in html
[22:56] <nigtv> at least thats what its saying
[22:57] <nigtv> they are all named ######.mp3, i.e. 6 numbers
[22:57] <jrib> nigtv: use grep
[22:57] <nigtv> i think im using the wrong syntax for that
[22:57] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: the only time ive had that happen before is with a virus, but then again if your comp is trying to boot solely on a disk it seems possible that if the cd is faulty then it could lead the computer to shutdown. Try running the boot process using a dvd-r and if the same thing happens, install it without the live cd, ive done it that way alongside vista and itll do fine. with the other thing check and see what your boot
[22:57] <LinMint-Cholo>  priority is set as and keep your disk drive at the top, then your hard drive, then usb, etc.
[22:57] <frostburn> salmon you have another package manager running
[22:57] <kane77> hi, on my laptop I tried to enable magnifier in compizconfig and it said it needs to enable mouse polling so I enabled that and that restarted X.. now I cannot login.. it logs me in but restarts x, how do I disable compiz (or compiz) from command line?
[22:57] <cyanide> Hello everyone. Can anyone tell me the location or command line to download "deb"? I don't know what it is but I need it for an install it seems :)
[22:58] <guntbert> !doesnt work | anti_theocon
[22:58] <nigtv> i -dump 'd the page source, and grepped that for .mp3, then -o it, but that just prints ".mp3" 86 times
[22:58] <jrib> cyanide: take a step back.  What are you trying to do?
[22:58] <jrib> nigtv: do it right?
[22:58] <david__> Hello,
[22:58] <nigtv> i think so, is there a way to make it also print the 6 characters before mp3?
[22:58] <nigtv> i was looking but couldnt find one
[22:58] <jrib> nigtv: that's what I mean.  Do it right
[22:59] <salmon> frostburn, im sure i don't. when i first encountered the problem, i simply re-started my computer hoping that would fix it. so i went straight back to the updater and got the same message..
[22:59] <cyanide> Was going to install btnx, but then discovered I can't in 8.10 so google'd and discovered this post, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=968530
[22:59] <emma> Guys, the last two days my audio in Intrepid has been extremely doggy. Worse than ever. And it's practically random.
[22:59] <kane77> cyanide, why would you need 'deb'?
[22:59] <LinMint-Cholo> cyanide: you should have a gdebi program preinstalled that when you download a .deb file you should be able to choose to run it with the program and it will install the package for you.
[22:59] <emma> It just fails to work all of a sudden.
[22:59] <anti_theocon> more secific...when accessing help message state 'could not find service khelpcenter' which is installed on machine
[22:59] <jrib> nigtv: you want to match a pattern of some sort.  Not just ".mp3"
[22:59] <nigtv> emma: compare process lists
[22:59] <emma> Is there any sure fire way to restart pulse from the command line?
[22:59] <nigtv> right
[22:59] <cyanide> which gives "E: Type '‘deb' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openoffice.sources.list
[22:59] <cyanide> E: The list of sources could not be read." when I attempt the first command
[22:59] <cyanide> I'm trying to configure my MX Revolution
[22:59] <davidstri> I'm having trouble installing a program from sourceforge.
[22:59] <jrib> !who | cyanide
[22:59] <frostburn> salmon, are you using sudo?
[23:00] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: ok mate. I will try to burn it on a DVD-R and check if it will boot, otherwise I will be back here and check with you how to install it without the LiveCD ;) Thanks!
[23:00] <salmon> frostburn, always :]
[23:00] <emma> !sound
[23:00] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: I will try Mint 6 using a CD-R as well.. I liked Mint Style
[23:00] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: absolutely, let me know
[23:00] <Guest13512> guys, what command I need to use to convert an avi to mp4 in mencoder?
[23:00] <daftykins> emma, "sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart" i think
[23:00] <jrib> cyanide: I don't see how mouse configuration and openoffice are related
[23:00] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: so do i :)
[23:00] <LinMint-Cholo> lol
[23:00] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: LOL
[23:00] <jrib> nigtv: do you know about regular expressions?
[23:00] <LaNCeloT_RW> ok.. brbr
[23:00] <LaNCeloT_RW> brb*
[23:01] <cyanide> jrib: either do I but thats the error I'm receiving :(
[23:01] <nigtv> not sure, let me check
[23:01] <jrib> cyanide: receiving when doing what exactly?
[23:01] <Koenigsegg> displayconfig-gtk seems like a nice tool, judging from some forums. Has it been replaced by something else or has it just been discontinued?
[23:01] <frostburn> salmon, can you do a ps -ef and pastebin it?
[23:01] <cyanide> Jrib: sudo apt-get install xbindkeys xmacro
[23:01] <salmon> frostburn, gimmie a sec
[23:01] <nigtv> --regexp= ?
[23:01] <davidstri> Is there anyone in particular that can help me with installing a program from sourceforge?
[23:01] <LaNCeloT_RW> [LinMint-Cholo]: should I use POwerISO in order to burn Ubuntu Iso to a DVD ??? Or can I use Deep Burner?
[23:01] <nigtv> david: probably
[23:01] <Brad450> about ubuntu isnt working anymore any ideas???
[23:02] <jrib> cyanide: pastebin the contents of the file in the error message and the output of the command « sudo apt-get update »
[23:02] <jrib> davidstri: if you're more specific maybe...
[23:02] <NDS|Brandon> If I cant get Ubuntu working, any other good distros to try that would be easier?
[23:02] <LinMint-Cholo> LaNCeloT_RW: id use either power2go or infrared burner
[23:02] <Guest13512> guys, what command I need to use to convert an avi to mp4 in mencoder?
[23:02] <kane77> hi, on my laptop I tried to enable magnifier in compizconfig and it said it needs to enable mouse polling so I enabled that and that restarted X.. now I cannot login.. it logs me in but restarts x, how do I disable compiz (or compiz) from command line? can anyone help me? I need my laptop functional ;)
[23:02] <nigtv> generally, you would extract it if it is archivved, then cd to where it is, then ./configue, then make, then make install
[23:02] <jrib> Guest13512: ffmpeg is probably easier (my 2 cents)
[23:02] <guntbert> !compile | davidstri
[23:02] <salmon> frostburn, http://paste.ubuntu.com/126962/

[23:03] <OzFalcon> Anyone having stability problems with 9.04 on netbooks? (hp2133). Networking seems to hard crash..... Randomly.
[23:03] <cyanide> jrib: "E: Type '‘deb' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openoffice.sources.list" from sudo apt-get update
[23:03] <Guest13512> anyway how to do it in ffmpeg?
[23:03] <Zopiac> if I use a hard reset when booted from my windows partition, can I not mount the windows part. from ubuntu?
[23:03] <emma> daftykins: that did not return the audio

[23:03] <MalfermitaKodo> Let me retry with unset LANG
[23:03] <davidstri> guntbert: Alright, thanks, I'll take a look at that website.
[23:03] <daftykins> emma at what point did it stop working?
[23:04] <frostburn> salmon, you're running a dist upgrade here root     26101 26100  0 17:46 ?        00:00:01 /usr/sbin/synaptic --dist-upgrad   while that's running you won't be able to do any package manipulation
[23:04] <LaNCeloT_RW> - err - power2go ? W4rez
[23:04] <OzFalcon> ubottu, k ta
[23:04] <daftykins> hehe
[23:04] <guntbert> davidstri: have fun :)
[23:04] <emma> daftykins: I just did something to make it work again.
[23:04] <daftykins> what was that emma ?

[23:05] <salmon> frostburn, i shoultn't be running a dist upgrade, i never told my comp i wanted to :[ last time i tried to upgrade to 8.10 it failed horribly so i have just been waiting on the new one. so im screwed right?

[23:06] <Magilum> Is there any way to change how gnome renders links? I have a dark theme, and as such the dark blue is unreadable.
[23:06] <NDS|Brandon> ERm...
[23:06] <NDS|Brandon> I think my CD rom is dead
[23:06] <NDS|Brandon> :|
[23:06] <MalfermitaKodo> jrib: ty!
[23:06] <frostburn> salmon, unsure.  if an upgrade ever goes bad, i just blow away every partition other than /home and rebuild
[23:06] <NDS|Brandon> It waswnt booting, so I tried installing in Windows, it says it cant acces the CD
[23:06] <jrib> cyanide: still there?
[23:07] <cyanide> jrib: yes :)
[23:07] <jrib> cyanide: pastebinning?
[23:07] <nigtv> i cannot get this to work
[23:07] <nigtv> ill try it later
[23:07] <nigtv> bye
[23:07] <NDS|Brandon> It waswnt booting, so I tried installing in Windows, it says it cant acces the CD
[23:07] <cyanide> jrib: how do I do that?
[23:07] <jgood> Hey guys, came here a few days ago about installation problems, never got it solved hoping maybe to get it this time
[23:07] <balleyne> Zopiac: you're having trouble mounting an NTFS windows partition after doing a hard reset? Using the ntfsfix command, you may be able to get it to mount properly.
[23:07] <jrib> !pastebin | cyanide
[23:07] <salmon> frostburn, thats what i did the last time, but i just went back to 8.04 because i had the disc for it. just been waiting on the new distro to come out... rats. if i can't update anything till then will that cause any real issues?
[23:07] <fish> ok, so what do I need to put in console to convert from avi to mp4 in ffmpeg?
[23:08] <cyanide> jrib: bash: !pastebin: event not found :(
[23:08] <jrib> cyanide: read what ubottu said
[23:08] <Koenigsegg> Is there *no* way to edit screen resolution/monitor settings besides gedit+xorg.conf??
[23:08] <NDS|Brandon> :| Why wont Ubuntu work :|
[23:08] <jgood> so what happens, i through my CD into my computer, the startup comes up, i select my language, i select any option and i press enter.... nothing happens, the disk kinda starts to spins but then does nothing and i can use my arrows anymore (it beeps when i do) and i can't do anything else
[23:08] <Zopiac> balleyne: says ntfsfix command is not found
[23:08] <Dr_willis_AAO> !find ntfsfix
[23:08] <balleyne> Koenigsegg: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution ?
[23:09] <gajop> Koenigsegg: think xrandr used to do something, or at least display resolution
[23:09] <NDS|Brandon> !help
[23:09] <NDS|Brandon> !install
[23:09] <_VIM_> jgood: did you check cd for errors first?
[23:09] <jgood> yes
[23:09] <gajop>  i'm having trouble with 32bit libstdc++, i don't know where to put it so compiler recognizes it; if i put it in /usr/lib it messes up 64bit compiles (though they do compile, just at first report invalid versions); and if i leave it in the original install place, it reports this: http://codepad.org/XL1neRvT
[23:09] <jgood> i did an MD5 check
[23:09] <_VIM_> jgood: did you try burning the cd at a lower speed?
[23:09] <jgood> i did it at the lowest speed possible
[23:09] <NDS|Brandon> Same here
[23:10] <Koenigsegg> balleyne: It ssays my max res is 1024x768. Nvidia X Server settings says 1360x768. But I don't believe that..
[23:10] <jgood> and i reburnt the iso, which was clean
[23:10] <NDS|Brandon> Thats my problem
[23:10] <_VIM_> jgood: have you tried the alternative CD yet?
[23:10] <balleyne> Zopiac: yeah, you'll need to install ntfsprogs as ubottu mentioned
[23:10] <jrib> cyanide: do you understand?
[23:10] <Koenigsegg> gajop: Will check, Thanks
[23:10] <jgood> by alternative CD do you mean just another copy?
[23:10] <_VIM_> !alternative > jgood
[23:10] <NDS|Brandon> What Kind of system can the Alternative be installedon?
[23:10] <balleyne> Koenigsegg: ah, yeah, that GUI seems to only work within the limits of xorg.conf I think
[23:10] <jgood> nope didn't try that.... let me find it real fast
[23:10] <phox> Koenigsegg: ctrl-alt-+ and ctrl-alt-- will change resolutions, but you probably need to fix modelines for your monitor; the binary nvidia driver generally manages to pull in DDC data correctly.
[23:10] <fosco_> NDS|Brandon: any system
[23:10] <Zopiac> balleyne: ok, its installed, but how do I use ntfsfix? I can't just do 'ntfsfix /media/disk/' as it isn't mounted there already
[23:10] <Dr_willis_AAO> NDS|Brandon,  same as the desktop
[23:11] <_VIM_> NDS|Brandon: any
[23:11] <cyanide> jrib: I just did it, I think lol you receive anything
[23:11] <phox> but that assumes that your xorg.conf is set correctly to use DDC....
[23:11] <jrib> cyanide: you have to give me the url
[23:11] <guntbert> NDS|Brandon: all systems,  but it is no live CD
[23:11] <Dr_willis_AAO> Zopiac,  you DONT use  it on a mounted filesystem use the device /dev/sd## and use sudo
[23:11] <NDS|Brandon> Yeah
[23:11] <cyanide> jrib: sorry, first time doing it: x.x http://paste.ubuntu.com/126968/
[23:11] <NDS|Brandon> Does Ubuntu Support NTFS?
[23:11] <Dr_willis_AAO> NDS|Brandon,  Yes.
[23:11] <phox> NDS|Brandon: any distro does.
[23:11] <jrib> cyanide: I need you to open /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openoffice.sources.list
[23:11] <phox> NDS|Brandon: ntfs-3g
[23:12] <jrib> cyanide: I need you to open /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openoffice.sources.list and pastebin the contents
[23:12] <balleyne> Zopiac: ah, you'll need the device name instead of the mount point. `sudo fdisk -l` will list all the detected devices, you should be able to see which is the NTFS partition you want
[23:12] <NDS|Brandon> Ok :)
[23:12] <Koenigsegg> phox: Well, that's the running point, isn't it.. This is my first Ubuntu installation, and then you can probably figure out the rest..
[23:12] <NDS|Brandon> I might try this trick then
[23:12] <Kriss3d> uhm i have a little issue with VI.. when i start it to edit a file and press the insert key to edit the file contents.. if i then press the arrow keys to normally move the cursor. it instead prints letters like ADN and such.. what am i doing wrong ? havent been using vi for a very long time
[23:12] <jrib> Kriss3d: arrow keys in vi?  blasphemy.  You probably want to use "vim-gnome", not the default "vim-tiny"
[23:13] <jgood> _VIM_, which version of the alt CD should i download? I386 right?
[23:13] <frostburn> gajop, you can change your libraries in your Makefile before compiling
[23:13] <Kriss3d> jrgp, then what should i use if not arrow keys ?
[23:13] <Zopiac> tried ntfsfix /dev/sda4 and it says it doesn't exist
[23:13] <cyanide> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/126969/
[23:13] <jrib> cyanide: get rid of the quotes
[23:13] <_VIM_> jgood: is unless you have 64 bit computer, I'd go with i386
[23:13] <frostburn> Kriss3d, just get the standard vim package
[23:13] <balleyne> Zopiac: did you use sudo?
[23:13] <Dr_willis_AAO> Zopiac,   you did use sudo at the front? and perhaps its not sda4
[23:14] <gajop> frostburn: libraries are fine, when i compile with -m32 option i expect it to search in /usr/lib32 or /lib32 to find the proper lib32 libraries... or the entire idea of having 32bit libraries is pointless
[23:14] <Zopiac> lol I feel stupid xD thanks, I didn't use sudo
[23:14] <timothy> i need help finding a video editor that lets me have a video with audio and also have background music playing.
[23:14] <Dr_willis_AAO> Kriss3d,  FAQ - :) - install the vim-full package
[23:14] <NDS|Brandon> :s
[23:14] <Zopiac> wait---nope, nothing
[23:14] <Kriss3d> Dr_willis_AAO,  thanks
[23:14] <n8tuserf> Kriss3d -> i  is for insert, not the key marked insert
[23:14] <frostburn> gajop, you'll probably have to specify to use the lib32 instead, i've never done it before so not sure what the switch may be
[23:14] <balleyne> Zopiac: nothing as in, same error? (doesn't exist)
[23:14] <Zopiac> same error
[23:14] <cyanide> jrib: update worked that time :D
[23:15] <carol_> Olá
[23:15] <frostburn> gajop, man gcc =P
[23:15] <cyanide> jrib: so did the original command I was trying! Thanks a lot :)
[23:15] <Kriss3d> n8tuserf,  ah that makes sense... though i have already vim installed on this distro..
[23:15] <Kriss3d> but thanks..
[23:15] <jrib> cyanide: no problem
[23:15] <gajop> frostburn: ok... ill try it out then, thanks
[23:15] <balleyne> Zopiac: hmm, you're sure it's /dev/sda4? fdisk said that's the NTFS partition?
[23:16] <n8tuserf> Kriss3d -> well then just launch it, vi filename
[23:16] <_VIM_> Kriss3d: you can type vimtutor in a terminal, if you have 30 minutes to spare...
[23:16] <Zopiac> balleyne: im guessing you can't say /dev/sda4/, it must be /dev/sda4 ?
[23:16] <Kriss3d> by the way.. are there any guides to how to have "/etc/init.d/networking start"  and NetworkingManager start automaticly instead of me having to write it myself ? which rc should i edit if any ?
[23:16] <balleyne> Zopiac: yes, no trailing slash
[23:16] <timothy> i need help finding a video editor that lets me have a video with audio and also have background music playing.
[23:16] <Zopiac> all right
[23:16] <Kriss3d> _VIM_,  thanks ill do that when i got more time
[23:17] <metalforever> wow... this channel got much more popular... geez
[23:17] <carol_> Timothy, sorry, but i don't know how could i help you
[23:17] <snarkster> ive got an issue with ubuntu on a dell optiplex gx260.  the desktop will not finish loading and the keyboard locksup so i cant change to a vterm
[23:17] <NDS|Brandon> :|
[23:17] <NDS|Brandon> There
[23:17] <_VIM_> metalforever: most popular distro! so I would hope so :)
[23:17] <timothy> carol_: ok thanks.
[23:18] <NDS|Brandon> Thats my exact issue as well
[23:18] <Magilum> Is there any way to change how gnome renders links? I have a dark theme, and as such the dark blue is unreadable.
[23:18] <NDS|Brandon> Snarkster = Exactly my problem
[23:18] <metalforever> eeek
[23:18] <metalforever> i remember the 6 version.
[23:18] <metalforever> s
[23:18] <jrib> Magilum: I'd guess that's done in the theme
[23:18] <balleyne> !openmovieeditor | timothy
[23:18] <balleyne> !kino | timothy
[23:18] <metalforever> try kino
[23:18] <jussi01> !info openmovieeditor
[23:18] <snarkster> hmmm must be this system as I have 2 such machines identical.
[23:18] <metalforever> sudo apt-get intall kino
[23:18] <jussi01> !info kino
[23:19] <jussi01> !info kdenlive
[23:19] <balleyne> lol thanks jussi01
[23:19] <jussi01> ;)
[23:19] <carol_> Someone want talk with me?
[23:19] <NDS|Brandon> Snarkster its not
[23:19] <_VIM_> of course ubottu's master gets it right ;)
[23:19] <metalforever> sure.
[23:19] <carol_> i'm brasilian
[23:19] <NDS|Brandon> My machine does it too
[23:19] <timothy> balleyne: i've tried kino, pitivi, open movie editor, avimedux, and kdenlove
[23:19] <metalforever> try cinelerra
[23:19] <metalforever> the spelling probably isnt right on that
[23:19] <timothy> metalforever: i've tried that too.
[23:19] <metalforever> and.. whats the problem.
[23:19] <frostburn> Magilum, you can change your gnome-terminal color scheme under edit > profile pref > color
[23:19] <NDS|Brandon> Snarkster
[23:20] <NDS|Brandon> Try the alternative
[23:20] <snarkster> ok well im going to forums to try and find out some info...
[23:20] <timothy> metalforever: its horrid.
[23:20] <snarkster> see ya
[23:20] <metalforever> well
[23:20] <metalforever> i cant help you there
[23:20] <metalforever> i thought cinelerra had a lot of options
[23:20] <NDS|Brandon> and type in IRQPOLL ALL_GENERIC_IDE=1
[23:20] <metalforever> try wine if you're that bothered.
[23:20] <timothy> is there any program like windows movie maker
[23:20] <metalforever> try wine
[23:20] <metalforever> and yes, if you know how to use them.
[23:21] <NDS|Brandon> Wine is its own worst enemy
[23:21] <metalforever> give each one a chance, hm?
[23:21] <metalforever> brandon- homebrew?
[23:21] <metalforever> last i checked, nds's couldnt enter irc any other way.
[23:22] <diesel> I noticed that I have cups and cupsys installed?  What is the difference?
[23:23] <Dr_willis_AAO> !info cupssys
[23:23] <fsufitch> hi. i need some help. it would appear that the nvidia driver is broken on my computer. whenever i boot while using it, ubuntu freezes when i get to X actually being launched
[23:23] <Dr_willis_AAO> !info cupsys
[23:23] <Dr_willis_AAO> diesel,  nothing it seems :) they point to same package.
[23:23] <daftykins> i really hate the lack of customization in Rhythmnbox, i just want to change the text size so i can see more on-screen yet there seems to be no way to do it
[23:23] <alexei> hi, after moving the root partition to a new bigger disk I dont see the graphical boot progress bar anymore. Any idea why?
[23:23] <metalforever> i dont use nvidia... cant help you
[23:23] <metalforever> did you use ubuntu's proprietary driver install?
[23:24] <fsufitch> metalforever, yes
[23:24] <metalforever> next time, dont.
[23:24] <metalforever> the radeon hd installer doesnt work either.
[23:24] <davidstri> Does anyone know how to resize the window for kdenlive?
[23:24] <daftykins> fsufitch, try reinstalling nvidia-glx-177
[23:24] <davidstri> The window is too big for my screen
[23:24] <fsufitch> metalforever, well gee thanks, and not use any of my video card either, i assume? It worked properly until today
[23:25] <metalforever> well no
[23:25] <fsufitch> daftykins, 177 didn't work before, so i was using 173
[23:25] <metalforever> you need to install the drivers using the installer on the nvidia website.
[23:25] <daftykins> reinstall that then.
[23:25] <fsufitch> daftykins, i tried. same problem.
[23:25] <metalforever> or use open source drivers
[23:25] <metalforever> it isnt my fault its broken
[23:25] <daftykins> did you purge the package properly and force it to redownload fsufitch  ?
[23:25] <skinny__> hi , i have problem to install skype
[23:26] <fsufitch> metalforever, the open source drivers arent good enough (yet), and i know it's not your fault.
[23:26] <fsufitch> daftykins, i tried remove and reinstall, but i'll do a purge now
[23:26] <metalforever> install off the website
[23:26] <metalforever> it might be a source install.. im not sure.
[23:26] <skinny__> could somebody help me ??
[23:26] <metalforever> probably not.. its proprietary.
[23:26] <daftykins> fsufitch, "apt-get clean" as well to remove it from the apt cache
[23:26] <metalforever> should be very easy to do
[23:26] <metalforever> download to your desktop
[23:27] <sparklejess> skinny__: what have you tried already?
[23:27] <_VIM_> !skype | skinny__ (have you looked here?)...
[23:27] <metalforever> right click, go to properties or what have you
[23:27] <fsufitch> metalforever, i'll try that if purge/reinstall doesnt work
[23:27] <metalforever> choose the checkbox that says can boot this file, or similar
[23:27] <metalforever> i dont know the specifics
[23:27] <metalforever> open terminal
[23:27] <metalforever> cd Desktop
[23:27] <jgood> what does the wubi installer do? how does it transform windows into linux?
[23:27] <DasEi> !wubi
[23:28] <Magilum> jrib: How can I edit that?
[23:28] <metalforever> sudo  ./filenamehere
[23:28] <skinny__> the problem is i have AMD processor and the installer is only for intel processor i think
[23:28] <DasEi> jgood: it performs 'alright' but is only recommended for testing I believe
[23:28] <Dr_willis_AAO> jgood,  it installs to a file on the windows sytem and boots that file basically
[23:29] <metalforever> geez, well i have amd and i can tell you you can get skype working with it
[23:29] <jgood> DasEi, yea, i was looking at it trying to figure out what it is like... i guess if your not tech savey it is easy to double click something then to partition and dual boot or something
[23:29] <metalforever> i cant tell you how though, sorry.
[23:29] <CrocoJet> how can I remove program "firestarter" to do not load at boot ?
[23:29] <_Whipper__> its not the processor :)
[23:29] <metalforever> go to services in the admin menu?
[23:30] <metalforever> or system monitor
[23:30] <metalforever> one of those has the ability to change startup programs.
[23:30] <CrocoJet> metalforever, not showing at services
[23:30] <metalforever> i dont know, i dont use ubuntu.
[23:30] <CrocoJet> ok
[23:30] <_VIM_> jgood: if you need windows that badly it's better to install Ubuntu normally, then just get VirtualBox or Vmware (assuming you have a Windows CD/.iso file) that way you can use windows when you're on ubuntu...
[23:30] <cjae> what is the command to rebuild kde's window decorator again
[23:30] <DasEi> jgood: as said above it nstalls like an app in win and is not a native linux
[23:30] <_Whipper__> sudo is quite useful command..
[23:31] <DasEi> !dualboot | jgood
[23:31] <dotblank> _Whipper__: its soo much better then windows UAC
[23:31] <cjae> sudo dpkg -reconfigure -kwin-decorator or something like that
[23:31] <n8tuserf> CrocoJet -> you can de-install your firestarter if you wish
[23:31] <davidstri> Whipper: My windows won't fit my moniter. Do you know how to change my windows sizes?
[23:31] <metalforever> found it
[23:31] <metalforever> preferences >
[23:31] <CrocoJet> n8tuserf, was thinking ... that
[23:32] <metalforever> sessions
[23:32] <Kriss3d> _VIM_,  I can strongly recommend installing ubuntu via WUBI instead for people who want easy installs
[23:32] <metalforever> ;)
[23:32] <jgood> yea, i wasn't planning on using the wubi, just waiting for the alt CD to finish and browsing the site...
[23:32] <_Whipper__> get rid of that win s**t :)
[23:32] <DasEi> !resolution | davidstri
[23:32] <_VIM_> Kriss3d: well I don't
[23:32] <AakashPatel> anyone installed ubuntu on thier macbook pro?
[23:32] <jimdb_> State of Colorado office of technology says that firefox is insecure and that only ie6 is safe.
[23:32] <_VIM_> :)
[23:32] <metalforever> oh boy
[23:32] <Kriss3d> it makes alot of things very easy
[23:32] <dotblank> jimdb_: says slashdot
[23:32] <_VIM_> easy != stable
[23:32] <sparklejess> skinny__: yep, I'm pretty sure it works on all processor types.  Have you downloaded the .deb file from the skype website?
[23:32] <sebsebseb>
[23:33] <dotblank> jimdb_: the page is down now
[23:33] <jimdb_> True
[23:33] <metalforever> fock.
[23:33] <DasEi> jgood: for a first taste, the dektop-cd is live-able with no changes to your pc, dualboot the most common way
[23:33] <metalforever> this is why i hate installing linux
[23:33] <_Whipper__> im using Caos on my Acer lap-top, and it runs like a dream :) even with nVidia chipset and all :)
[23:33] <metalforever> brb while i get a screwdriver
[23:33] <kindofabuzz> has anyone done a "do-release-upgrade -d" to upgrade to jaunty alpha5? what were your results?
[23:33] <metalforever> my cd drive doesnt open when you mess up the bootloader.
[23:33]  * n8tuserf hands a sledgehammer to metalforever
[23:34] <metalforever> it has to be unplugged on the inside on startup
[23:34] <metalforever> and you need to plug it in while its running
[23:34] <metalforever> hang on.
[23:34] <dotblank> _Whipper__: The wireless card is super sensitive and seems to support injection, additionally it runs about 3x faster then windows
[23:34] <kindofabuzz> umm there is a lttle hole you stick a paper clip in to open a cd tray
[23:34] <horndog> CrocoJet, have a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=542756
[23:34] <GeffIsLegend> can someone help me uninstalling ubuntu and reinstalling windows?
[23:34] <jgood> guess wubi has its purpose... i kinda want to install it just to see what exactly it does, because how do you get windows to function like a taste of linux?
[23:34] <metalforever> right
[23:34] <metalforever> except it doesnt open
[23:34] <metalforever> tried that .
[23:34] <dotblank> GeffIsLegend: :(
[23:34] <jgood> GefflsLegend, do you have xp discs?
[23:34] <jgood> or windows discs?
[23:35] <metalforever> Geff, insert windows cd.
[23:35] <DasEi> GeffIsLegend: #windows is tere, too
[23:35] <GeffIsLegend> i have windows vista yes
[23:35] <cjae> sudo dpkg -reconfigure -kde-window-mamager or something like that
[23:35] <dotblank> I bet windows is harder to install now
[23:35] <cjae> -m+n
[23:35] <sparklejess> skinny__: there are people on ubuntuforums talking about problems with AMD 64, is that what you're running?
[23:35] <GeffIsLegend> but when i try to boot from cd it doesnt work, it just loads in ubuntu
[23:35] <kindofabuzz> GeffIsLegend, stick the cd in and follow directions, just like installing linux
[23:35] <_Whipper__> dotb: yep, u can fight til the end with ubuntu & nvidia :P
[23:35] <jgood> when installing linux did you partition or delete windows?
[23:35] <_VIM_> jgood: windows is so closed sourced, it's very hard to get it to 'function like a taste of linux' as you put it. Wubi would be the closest thing to that...
[23:35] <GeffIsLegend> pretty sure its deleted lol
[23:35] <DasEi> GeffIsLegend: #windows is tere, too;;; check your bios to boot from cd
[23:35] <kindofabuzz> nice
[23:36] <dotblank> GeffIsLegend: This a issue with your bios not booting from the cdrom drive first
[23:36] <jgood> yea what they all say
[23:36] <kindofabuzz> why do you want windows back, linux has everything you need and more, for free!
[23:36] <_Whipper__> DONT install Windows if u have Lin on your machinae
[23:36] <GeffIsLegend> oo ok so go to bios options and select boot from cdi n there?
[23:36] <n1gh7m4r3> ive installed a theme (mac 4 linux) with epidermis on ubunto 8.10 and when i go to themes it says this theme will not look right because gtk + theme engine is not installed
[23:36] <_Whipper__> youll get in So much troble..
[23:36] <jgood> _VIM_ yea thats why i'm wondering how the wubi works.... because windows is so far away from linux i don't get how you can sample linux without at least VM'ing or dualbooting
[23:36] <skinny__> sparklejess , yes i got amd 64x2
[23:36] <dotblank> _Whipper__: why not? it will still work well except ubuntu
[23:37] <GeffIsLegend> wouldnt the windows cd just reformat my whole pc anyways and it partitions?
[23:37] <jgood> GeffisLengend, depending on your BOIS you will have to select your start up order
[23:37] <GeffIsLegend> oh ok
[23:37] <jgood> and then just put CD drive first....
[23:37] <scootie> hi
[23:37] <GeffIsLegend> okay will do
[23:37] <dotblank> GeffIsLegend: that is your choice. but it will overwrite the boot loader
[23:37] <DasEi> GeffIsLegend: #windows is there, too, and yes it does
[23:37] <sparklejess> skinny__: what version of linux are you using?
[23:37] <_Whipper__> dot: yeah, if u part. it all over, and Dont use lin anymore
[23:38] <GeffIsLegend> okay thanks , im going to go look at something then ill be right back fellas :]
[23:38] <jgood> have fun XD
[23:38] <skinny__> sparklejess , i use ubuntustudio 8.10
[23:38] <vladdY> how do I install mono on ubuntu server, apt-get install mono is not working?
[23:38] <_Whipper__> u CAN put windows in Linux-based machine, but then u really want to know what the f**k r u doing :)
[23:38] <_VIM_> !info mono
[23:38] <_VIM_> hmmm
[23:39] <sparklejess> skinny__: When you run it from the applications menu, does it give you a particular error message?
[23:39] <scootie> i need to do a backup of a partition, preferably to a dvd or two. paragon hard drive manager 2009 didn't work. i'm running off the ubuntu 8.1 install cd in livecd mode. any suggestions?
[23:39] <dotblank> !mono-common
[23:39] <dlmarti> I thought the general consensus was to get rid of mono?
[23:39] <jgood> scootie have you tried magic?
[23:39] <_Whipper__> Rsync
[23:39] <dotblank> mono-common is the package name though
[23:39] <kindofabuzz> scootie, Clonezilla
[23:39] <vladdY> why would you get rid of mono
[23:40] <dlmarti> why would you want it?
[23:40] <vladdY> im switching my custoemrs from windows to linux, our app is c#.net
[23:40] <kindofabuzz> scootie, well you have to backup to a hard drive somewhere locally or on a network, but then you could burn to dvd
[23:40] <vladdY> so they can run c# on ubuntu-server
[23:40] <sparklejess> skinny__: I don't have experience with this personally, but there's a workaround linked here:
[23:40] <Flynsarmy> How do i change my own password from the terminal?
[23:40] <dlmarti> vladdY That is probably a good reason, the only one I've heard
[23:40] <fosco_> Flynsarmy: passwd user
[23:40] <Dreamglider> i'm trying to salvaga a disk with testdisk,  i had ubuntu and windows installed, now in testdisk at asks men what type of partition table was: Intel/pc partition, EFI GPT part, Apple part, Non part, Sun part or xbox part. which is it ?
[23:40] <dotblank> vladdY: sudo apt-get install mono-common
[23:40] <christian_> hello people i have a problem with my ubuntu 8.10 Kernel 2.6.27-11-generic X86_64. The first problem is npviewer.bin uses many resources. Any solution?
[23:41] <vladdY> mono is one of the best thing to happened to linux, coming from windows guy that's slowly learning linux
[23:41] <dlmarti> I just never liked #.net
[23:41] <scootie> kindofabuzz: that should work. thanks
[23:41] <jgood> while i'm still waiting for my alt CD to download and i have time to kill, anybody have a linux/ubuntu 101 page that i could read over....
[23:41] <sparklejess> skinny__: http://macprolinux.blogspot.com/2007/10/skype-on-64-bit-gutsy.html (It's gutsy-specific, but there's a good chance it'll work with intrepid too.)
[23:41] <HoNgOuRu> I have accidentally deleted /usr/lib32, what consequencys will I face now???????
[23:41] <dotblank> Dreamglider: probally intel or dos
[23:41] <vladdY> i worked as java programmer but c# > java in every way
[23:41] <metalforever> THERE we go.
[23:41] <HoNgOuRu> I have accidentally deleted /usr/lib32, what consequencys will I face now???????
[23:41] <kindofabuzz> scootie, yeah i love Clonezilla, i just backed up all my partitons to a samba share, works perfectly
[23:41] <vladdY> ok, looks like mono-common works, thanks
[23:42] <dotblank> HoNgOuRu: umm...
[23:42] <_Whipper__> more beer..
[23:42] <liminal> hi
[23:42] <_Whipper__> eyes hurt.. too much vector-graphs..
[23:42] <dlmarti> HoNgOuRu, the packages that depends on it will not work, try to reinstall that package.  Sorry I'm not that familiar with non-rpm installs so I don't know the commands off the top of my head
[23:42] <HoNgOuRu> I also have /usr/lib64
[23:42] <sam555> Does ubuntu come with Samba?
[23:42] <liminal> yesturday my sound stopped working and i have no idea why
[23:42] <dean> sam555: yes
[23:42] <metalforever> you can tell i skimped on parts when i built this
[23:42] <HoNgOuRu> oh, ok
[23:42] <dean> sam555: if not you can install it
[23:43] <LjL> sam555: uhm i don't think it's installed by default, but it's definitely in the repositories and can be enabled/installed very easily
[23:43] <sam555> dean: thanks!
[23:43] <liminal> everything seems to be functioning,  justno sound
[23:43] <skinny__> sparklejess , thank you dude I fixed the problem right now , im from italy i tried to ask in italian ubuntu support but nobody could help me.. thanks again !!! :)
[23:43] <LjL> !samba > sam555    (sam555, see the private message from ubottu)
[23:43] <_VIM_> _Whipper__: what do you use to create the vector-graphs?
[23:43] <Gnea> sam555: not by default, but it's there to be installed
[23:43] <DasEi> !samba | sam555
[23:43] <dean> !samba
[23:43] <liminal> anyone have any ideas on what i can test for?
[23:43] <HoNgOuRu> but is there any wat dlmarti to install back again all the packages that use that directory?
[23:43] <dean> !snack
[23:43] <HoNgOuRu> "any way"
[23:43] <dean> !botsnack
[23:44] <_Whipper__> VIM: it depends.. Inkscape or XaraXtreme..
[23:44] <dotblank> HoNgOuRu: sudo apt-get remove lib32gcc1 && sudo apt-get install lib32gcc1
[23:44] <HoNgOuRu> ok, thanks dotblank
[23:44] <metalforever> does anyone here know whether arch has decent usb wireless support (i know this is a ubuntu channel0)
[23:44] <vladdY> wow mono-common installed mono 1.0 (crap version)
[23:44] <_VIM_> _Whipper__: ok ty ill try xaraxtreme, already have inkscape (i like inkscape too) but just kinda wanting to see what else is out there :)
[23:45] <metalforever> but im on ubuntu on the laptop, thanks.  (8.04)
[23:45] <metalforever> also
[23:45] <metalforever> anyone here have creative ideas on what to do with about 30 ubuntu 8.10 cds.
[23:45] <kindofabuzz> give them to people
[23:45] <jgood> microwave
[23:46] <metalforever> like.. the official ones.
[23:46] <_Whipper__> VIM: its not so different.. suits for different purpose better.. or something.. i use what i feel like :)
[23:46] <dotblank> metalforever: give them to librarians
[23:46] <dean> metalforever: how did you get cannonical to mail you 30 ubuntu cds
[23:46] <metalforever> they were supposed to be for a speech, but they came like.. 3 days late.
[23:46] <metalforever> .
[23:46] <deinspanjer> I'm trying to install VMware tools on an ubuntu VM, but the install package is warning me that the kernel I currently have was compiled with gcc 4.2.3 instead of 4.2.4.  Will I need to compile my own kernel to get around this error or might there be another kernel-image I could apt-get that is compiled with 4.2.4?
[23:46] <krepo> givi them to me
[23:46] <kindofabuzz> metalforever, put them in random mailboxes in your neighborhood
[23:46] <Frauq> SeLamun Aleyküm . hi.
[23:46] <metalforever> im good like that.
[23:46] <jgood> metalforever, see if your local high school/kids in the high school want them?
[23:46] <LjL> HoNgOuRu: sudo apt-get --reinstall install $(dpkg -S /usr/lib | tr "," " " | sed 's/:.*//g')
[23:46] <metalforever> that might work
[23:46] <metalforever> you think people would take them at a punk show?
[23:46] <kindofabuzz> yeah
[23:46] <metalforever> mmn
[23:46] <metalforever> awesome
[23:47] <krepo> trt
[23:47] <kindofabuzz> tell them all about linux, convert them!
[23:47] <jgood> metalforever, i know at least at my high school if somebody was handing out linux discs i know about 50 people that'd want one
[23:47] <dean> anyone know what I can do with 2 official ubuntu 7.10 cds and a bunch of unofficial ubuntu cds of various versions
[23:47] <kindofabuzz> dean, garbage =)
[23:47] <Dr_willis_AAO> Put them in a box at the local library
[23:47] <dotblank> metalforever: give them out at any programing class
[23:47] <metalforever> well.. i need to get rid of them because of 9.04
[23:47] <jgood> same thing that i suggested to metalforever
[23:47] <metalforever> well
[23:47] <metalforever> unfortunately, my school lacks those
[23:47] <mrwes> Dr_willis_AAO, with a copy of the ubuntu pocket guide
[23:48] <metalforever> they do have one, but i tried to get in there 3 years in a row, and it got axed every time from lack of interest.
[23:48] <krepo> probam sisaj kurac
[23:48] <kindofabuzz> anyone try an intrepid to jaunty upgrade yet? what were your results?
[23:48] <krepo> hohohoh
[23:48] <dean> I did
[23:48] <_Whipper__> anyone know here what to do with a usb-flash loaded with DSL-N ?-)
[23:48] <LjL> krepo: English please
[23:48] <dotblank> metalforever: library is best bet
[23:48] <krepo> sorry
[23:48] <metalforever> i have.... AP Calculus, photography, economics and 9th grade science
[23:48] <metalforever> nah
[23:48] <Dr_willis_AAO> mrwes,  and 'hot babes of linux' calenders!
[23:48] <metalforever> library here is full of...nevermind.
[23:49] <mrwes> Dr_willis_AAO, including Oolga :)
[23:49] <dotblank> Dr_willis_AAO: its missing 9/12 months!
[23:49] <HoNgOuRu> LjL it gave me an error, "adobe-flash plugin not found...something like that"
[23:49] <metalforever> think if they were slightly outdated, people would want them once i get to carnegie mellon?
[23:49] <krepo> thats normal
[23:49] <metalforever> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[23:49] <LjL> HoNgOuRu: can you give the exact error?
[23:50] <metalforever> ^
[23:50] <dotblank> metalforever: they are still valuable because I guarantee there will be issues during the immediate release of jaunty
[23:50] <dean> too bad 8.10 isn't LTS
[23:50] <kindofabuzz> i agree
[23:50] <krepo> does anybody know some free sign cutting program for ubuntu?
[23:50] <metalforever> awesome.
[23:50] <metalforever> thank you.
[23:50] <dotblank> dean: IMO 8.04 was a better release
[23:51] <kindofabuzz> no way

[23:51] <darktemplar> hi guys ... im new tu ubuntu (linux) and i was wandering if u know a free piano simulator?
[23:51] <dean> kindoefabuzz: yes
[23:52] <LinMint-Cholo> no i mean without actually locking it
[23:52] <Poscaenium> it is possible to convert ext3 to ext4 ...
[23:52] <jgood> ChrisW, do you have the driver installed properly
[23:52] <vijay> does any one know how can i fix the font issue with wine install
[23:52] <dux0r> how is babby formed?
[23:52] <dean> kindofabuzz: edit fstab and then enable extents
[23:52] <kindofabuzz> dean, cool. did you say you did a intrepid to jaunty upgrade?
[23:52] <dean> yes I did
[23:52] <krepo> sign cutting?
[23:52] <dean> kindofabuzz: I am running jaunty now
[23:52] <kindofabuzz> everything ok, as far as an alpha is concerned?
[23:52] <dotblank> Poscaenium: ext3 is forward compatable
[23:52] <dean> kindofabuzz: everything seems to work
[23:53] <kindofabuzz> right on, gonna try it now
[23:53] <HoNgOuRu> E: Couldn't find package adobe-flashplugin LjL
[23:53] <ChrisW> jgood: dunno, how would I check?
[23:53] <dotblank> !adobe-flashplugin-nonfree
[23:53] <kindofabuzz> dean, did you do a do-release? or use the cd?
[23:53] <krepo> nabijem vas na kurac good night
[23:53] <LjL> HoNgOuRu: then try with    sudo apt-get -m --reinstall install $(dpkg -S /usr/lib | tr "," " " | sed 's/:.*//g')
[23:53] <ChrisW> I just installed from the CD, wouldn't that pick the right driver?
[23:53] <jgood> ChrisW, no, there are to many thousands of drivers.....
[23:53] <_Whipper__> im running in this desktop.. umm.. ubuntu studio.. kub, edu.. and some pretty weird other stuff :) and running like a moose ;)
[23:53] <dotblank> !flashplugin-nonfree
[23:54] <dean> !flash
[23:54] <jgood> ChrisW, check your laptops manufactors site, they usually have a list of all your drives, and then download the graphics one
[23:54]  * _Whipper__ slaps krepo with an russian trout :)
[23:54] <jgood> ChrisW, since you are running linux you'll need something to convert or run .exe's
[23:54] <dotblank> jgood: usually thats only for windows
[23:54] <ChrisW> jgood: well, how do I find out which one I need and how do I install it?
[23:54] <Kriss3d> hmm what could be the cause of me not being able to configure the clock to show 24 hour at all ?
[23:54] <dean> !wine
[23:55] <LjL> HoNgOuRu: oh hell wait a second. when i said /usr/lib there i didn't actually mean /usr/lib
[23:55] <HoNgOuRu> LjL: the same error
[23:55] <dean> to convert ext3 to ext4 enable extents
[23:55] <LjL> HoNgOuRu: i meant whatever directory you actually want to restore files to
[23:55] <ChrisW> huh? how is a .exe going to help me get drivers on linux?
[23:55] <DasE1> Kriss3d: right-click it, set preferences ?
[23:55] <jgood> ChrisW, on linux i don't know how to install, i'm working on my linux install right now... give me a week and i'll know, or try getting someone else to help XD
[23:55] <HoNgOuRu> oh, ok
[23:55] <daejones> is there anyway to connect the terminal to a keyboard shortcut?
[23:55] <dotblank> ChrisW: good question it won't
[23:55] <HoNgOuRu> I'll change it so
[23:55] <dean>   tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index $DEV
[23:55] <dean>   fsck -pf $DEV
[23:55] <DasE1> ChrisW: more details? see:
[23:55] <jgood> hey, i'm still windows based here..... i'm working on this turnover to linux still
[23:55] <ActionParsnip> ChrisW: some dell drivers come in an exe and need extracting with cabextract
[23:55] <HoNgOuRu> ok, it installed a package
[23:56] <Kriss3d> DasE1, well rightclicking the clock gives various menu options.. none of which include options to switch to 24 hour
[23:56] <HoNgOuRu> thanks

[23:57] <dotblank> DasE1: ChrisW his question was installing drivers and was told to look for drivers from manufacture and use wine if they are exes
