[03:17] <mttr> yes.. what ever comands are on the appliction applets (top) bar.. all seem to be messed up
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> mttr: Sorry, but I am out of answers for today... Hope I can come up with more for tomorrow
[03:17] <mttr> with permissions that is
[03:17] <robdig> shadowblade: just the terminal window...you are running bash as your shell, right?
[03:18] <mttr> thanks for your help
[03:18] <mttr> may have to reinstall
[03:18] <Jack_Sparrow> np.. sorry it wasnt an easy fix
[03:18] <shadowblade> rodbig: ... dunno, sorry
[03:18] <denardo> So it appears that if I'm to listen to non-firefox audio while keeping firefox open, the solution is to boot into Windows. *sigh*
[03:18] <greencookie> Does anyone in here know if scribefire can be set up with a last.fm journal account?
[03:18] <Jack_Sparrow> mttr: remember after you get it reinstalled to do a backup..
[03:18] <shadowblade> rodbig: again, its not a big deal, i thought it might be a quick change kind of thing
[03:19] <Jack_Sparrow> mttr: also.. if you burn var/cache/apt/archives to a cd you can save a ton of dl time later
[03:19] <robdig> shadowblade: if you haven't changed it then it is bash. try putting it in ~/.bashrc, that's what i meant to say...sorry
[03:19] <mttr> can't someone do a ls -l on there /usr/bin folder
[03:19] <shadowblade> rodbig: that worked, thanks
[03:19] <mttr> well i lease my home folder is on seperate drive
[03:20] <mttr> can someone do a ls -l on there /usr/bin folder
[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> goodnight
[03:20] <desertc> Sounds like on of those, "Oh, so that's why everyone says not to run programs as root user..."
[03:20] <desertc> moments
[03:20] <robdig> shadowblade: sorry for misdirection first, at work use ksh, which uses .profile...anyway glad it worked for you
[03:21] <denardo> Looking at QAmix doesn't show anything revealing.
[03:21] <desertc> mttr: Reinstall your root directory, and you should be all set
[03:21] <mttr> about 30 min haha
[03:22] <mttr> what folder in root should i back up before i reinstall
[03:22] <skar> how do i remove kernel modules?
[03:23] <DM|> skar synaptic
[03:23] <noob101> whats the difference between d3d9 and d3dx9_25?
[03:23] <pawan> hi
[03:24] <skar> DM|, synaptic can't find the ones i need to remove
[03:24] <skar> DM|, i need to remove vmnet and vmmon to install vmplayer
[03:24] <robdig> !hi | pawan
[03:24] <ubotu> pawan: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:24] <skar> DM| vmware player*
[03:24] <DM|> skar use the vmware uninstal script
[03:25] <Darius08x> Why would my wireless work on the ubuntu live cd, but now that i've got it installed, it doesn't seem to work anymore. o.o
[03:25] <skar> DM| how do i do that? i think the kernels were installed when i installed the vmware server
[03:25] <skar> DM| from synaptic
[03:26] <DM|> skar look in /usr/bin, should be named "vmware-uninstall" or similar
[03:26] <DM|> skar will have a .pl after it
[03:26] <skar> DM| ah thanks, i'll check it out
[03:27] <skar> DM| i can't find anything with vmware in /usr/bin
[03:27] <DM|> skar sec
[03:27] <skar> DM| k
[03:28] <Darius08x> D:
[03:28] <cvd> can i ask one quest about the opencobol compiler?
[03:28] <DM|> skar try this in a terminal  "sudo apt-get remove vmware-player --purge" should go through stopping the services
[03:29] <DM|> vmnet is a service, vmmon is the kernel module
[03:29] <robdig> cvd: of course you can ask, but will anybody be able to answer? never know until you ask...
[03:30] <DM|> dont ask to ask a question, just ask it
[03:30] <lucieniu1> hey guys, fixed the soun problem... how do I determine what Compiz version I have?
[03:30] <skar> DM| ah, i think it might work now..one sec

[03:32] <DM|> yerp
[03:33] <FunnyLookinHat> mnereson8, you just have to remove the CD from your sources...  here is how to
[03:33] <FunnyLookinHat> mnereson8, sudo pico /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:33] <mnereson8> remove or add?
[03:33] <tomd123> does anyone know of any very good grammar checkers?
[03:33] <FunnyLookinHat> mnereson8, put a # at the beginning of the first source line, the one with the CD
[03:34] <MeTrOiD014|Kevin> holy shit
[03:34] <Ashfire908> fun.
[03:34] <Darius08x> ... whats goin on o.o

[03:34] <mnereson8> I saw
[03:34] <Ashfire908> oh lol
[03:34] <robdig> cvd: long time since i did cobol, but it sounds like it doesn't like the comment. Don't remember what the comment symbol is in cobol...
[03:34] <mnereson8> is that it?

[03:34] <meoblast001> hello i have 2 problems today.... the first.... i have my EXE files set to open with wine in the properties menu of the files, but the default appears as Text Editor when the file is right clicked.... i want it to open with Wine by default...... and the second.... Evolution does not notify me of mail until i launch it.... is there anyway to have the notifier launch with my session?
[03:35] <mnereson8> FunnyLokinHat: thanks, just comment out that one cdrom line?
[03:35] <Darius08x> I need help getting my wireless thing to work on ubuntu 7.10. It worked on the live cd, but not now. ?_?
[03:35] <cvd> i just copy the 'hello word' from open-cobol
[03:35] <FunnyLookinHat> mnereson8, yup, then do control + x to exit and make sure to hit yes for save
[03:35] <FunnyLookinHat> mnereson8, then you have to sudo aptitude update and then you can install your program   : )
[03:35] <mnereson8> FunnyLokinHat: awesome, its going now - thanks a ton mate
[03:35] <cvd> http://tinyurl.com/3blqj5
[03:36] <meoblast001> any ideas?
[03:36] <FunnyLookinHat> mnereson8, no problem   : )
[03:36] <robdig> cvd: so try removing the first line and see what it does...
[03:36] <Ashfire908> !netsplit > quanticle
[03:36] <tntCry> Darius08x, what do you mean worked? the wireless card or the internet connection ?
[03:37] <FunnyLookinHat> meoblast001, with the email notification, I'm not sure of a way to do that with evolution, sorry
[03:37] <meoblast001> ok
[03:37] <Darius08x> tntCry: ...Both? I could connect wireless and everything
[03:37] <meoblast001> any ideas for the WINE problem?
[03:37] <robdig> cvd: ah, * is in wrong column in your pastebin...compare to sample
[03:37] <FunnyLookinHat> meoblast001, with the .EXE files, you can set the default when you right click a .EXE - Choose Open With - Open with Other Application ---  Just type in wine and check the box to make it default
[03:38] <tntCry> Darius08x, so you mean ubuntu havent detected your card ?
[03:38] <Darius08x> Yeah
[03:39] <TigranG> Does building a custom kernel actually make the system faster?
[03:39] <cvd> still the same :-)
[03:39] <cvd> :-(
[03:39] <meoblast001> FunnyLookinHat: i dont have that option
[03:39] <tntCry> im the wrong person to help you with Darius08x , but if its an internet problem that means if your card works and your connected to your router and erverything but your internet isnt working it means you cant surf or log in msn ect.. that is a problem i can help you with.
[03:39] <Darius08x> tntCry:  Thats not my problem, it's just not detecting the card. ): But it did in the live cd which is odd
[03:40] <robdig> cvd: try deleting the first line and see if it will compile
[03:40] <tntCry> hmm
[03:40] <tntCry> did you type dmesg?
[03:40] <FunnyLookinHat> meoblast001, Ahh, so it isn't there...   hold on, I forget how to do it
[03:40] <FunnyLookinHat> meoblast001, give me a sec, I'll find it for you
[03:40] <tntCry> intrminal Darius08x
[03:40] <Darius08x> nope hold on
[03:40] <cvd> after deleting the first line http://pastebin.com/d3af8d0c7
[03:41] <tntCry> and see if you find the name of your WIcard theyr Darius08x
[03:41] <judgement07> does anyone use DEVEDE?
[03:41] <FunnyLookinHat> meoblast001, hmm..  I'm not totally sure.  You should google for it.  When I installed WINE, it automatically set the default for .EXE files to be WINE
[03:41] <TigranG> Does building a custom kernel from source actually make the system faster?
[03:41] <Darius08x> tntCry:  Don't see it
[03:42] <meoblast001> will reinstalling Wine destroy all my previous settings and files?
[03:42] <cvd> maybe there something wrong with the terminal?
[03:42] <FunnyLookinHat> meoblast001, probably not,   you can make sure it doesn't by doing this in a console
[03:42] <FunnyLookinHat> meoblast001, mv .wine .wine_backup
[03:42] <cvd> cuz sometimes i cant use the su at all
[03:42] <FunnyLookinHat> meoblast001, then once you reinstall wine, do this:   mv .wine_backup .wine
[03:43] <tntCry> dirst of all Darius08x what is it a laptop? built in wireless with mobo or a PCMCI laptop card or a PCI slot for PC.
[03:43] <Darius08x> PCI slot for pc
[03:44] <MattJ> Is it true that there is a maximum of 2GB for swap in Linux?
[03:44] <tntCry> you know Darius08x if i was you i would remove it and put it in another slot
[03:44] <Darius08x> Ok, thanks I guess i can try
[03:44] <tntCry> and try booting ubuntu again . this may cause of conflict that is 1 of the 80 reasons
[03:44] <tntCry> but the other reasons is you must get some files and stuff but that is also recommended if my way didnt work .
[03:45] <robdig> cvd: i don't remember, does cobol statements start in column 7 or 8? been too long...either way, for the warning, try doing cobc -free hello.cob
[03:45] <robdig> cvd: that will allow free format cobol
[03:45] <tntCry> i always start with basics Darius08x before i go with the hardcore setting
[03:45] <Darius08x> Ok, thank you, gonna go try that out, bye for noe
[03:45] <Darius08x> now
[03:45] <meoblast001> i want to make a ubuntu commercial for Albino Black Sheep because Canonical doesnt make commercials
[03:45] <Ashfire908> no more netsplit!
[03:45] <tntCry> good luck
[03:45] <Ashfire908> :)
[03:46] <Alyxander> hey guys has anyone checked out GEubuntu
[03:46] <ajeet> pls what is the comibation keys for kill command
[03:46] <Zhaozhou> Alyxander, heh, gebuntu. Allways new flavours.
[03:46] <meoblast001> ajeet: to kill an application use System > Administration > System Monitor
[03:47] <Zhaozhou> i wish there was a list of them. _all_ of them.
[03:47] <meoblast001> ajeet: there you will be able to right click on the name of the process and click kill
[03:47] <ajeet> is there a key combo
[03:47] <Alyxander> Zhaozhou, yup Gnome mixed with E17 very nice very very nice
[03:47] <meoblast001> ajeet: you can make one
[03:47] <ajeet> like in suse
[03:47] <Zhaozhou> Alyxander, e17 <3
[03:47] <Fyda> ajeet: No, but you could set one or create a launcher for 'xkill'
[03:47] <meoblast001> ajeet: first install the program xbindkeys
[03:48] <Zhaozhou> Im thinking of getting e17 on my box. e17 is really keyboard-friendly.
[03:48] <robdig> cvd: i don't remember, does cobol statements start in column 7 or 8? been too long...either way, for the warning, try doing cobc -free hello.cob
[03:48] <robdig> cvd: as far as the ld error, looks like you need to install ncurses
[03:48] <meoblast001> ajeet: Fyda's idea sounds a little easier
[03:49] <Alyxander> Zhaozhou, its hot the only reason i switched fro xubuntu with e installed was to see if they got it right with wireless and yeah they did
[03:49] <cvd> cannot find -lncurses
[03:49] <Zhaozhou> Alyxander, :D nice!
[03:49] <lht> Hi all. my apache wont start with /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[03:49] <Zhaozhou> Alyxander, what wireless card do you have?
[03:50] <Fyda> meoblast001: ajeet left :(
[03:51] <meoblast001> Fyda: he did?
[03:51] <meoblast001> im always late on that stuff
[03:51] <robdig> cvd: you need to install ncurses, the open cobol web site says 5.2 or later, not sure i see that, but try this...sudo apt-get install libncurses5
[03:51] <cvd> i have intalled the libncurses5, libncursesw5,libncurses-base,ncurses-bin
[03:52] <robdig> cvd: did you install open cobol from the ubuntu repositories or from their website?
[03:52] <cvd> from synaptic
[03:52] <cvd> and all the requirements
[03:53] <robdig> cvd: then it should have downloaded everything you need...suggest you open a bug on it
[03:55] <daks> does anybody know what could cause gnome to start slowly, displaying the ubuntu splash screen for an extended period?
[03:57] <judgement07> jkgkj
[03:57] <judgement07> whats wrong w/ this? is this slow or just me?
[03:58] <judgement07> devede question? please
[04:00] <jonesy> anyone else having issues with any application obeying sound settings set via the taskbar applet?
[04:00] <jonesy> my volume is muted, but firefox and totem are still loud as all hell.
[04:00] <jonesy> even when I turn the volume all the way down on totem, it's still loud as all hell.
[04:00] <sorely> ....
[04:01] <jonesy> then I did 'test' under "Sound Preferences" and it's loud as all hell... with everything muted!
[04:01] <Fyda> jonesy: But what about the sliders? Have you turned them all down to 0%, too?
[04:02] <jonesy> Fyda: the volume indicator on my panel says it's muted.
[04:02] <jonesy> if I click on it, it's all the way at the "-"
[04:02] <Fyda> jonesy: Yes. But look at the other channels in the mixer.
[04:02] <jonesy> yeah, that's where my confusion is.
[04:02] <jonesy> wtf is going on?
[04:02] <Fyda> I know it's inconsistent, and would like a fix as well.
[04:03] <jonesy> if I turn "PCM" down (wtf is that?) the volume goes down.
[04:03] <DG19075> jonesy, you have to open the mixer and make sure alll the controls are at minimum
[04:03] <skar> I used easyvmx.com to make an XP machine, and tried to use vmware-player to run it, but when I power up the machine, it gives me an error: "VMware Player unrecoverable error: (vcpu-0)
[04:03] <skar> Failed to allocate page for guest RAM!"
[04:03] <jonesy> this is an area where instead of having 15 different sound systems to choose from, it would be nice if linux had *one* that worked with the major desktops in some kind of seamless way.
[04:04] <nickrud> jonesy: if changing pcm (pulse code modulation?) , right click the volume control and tell it to control pcm
[04:04] <nickrud> *works, that is
[04:04] <Fyda> PCM typically corresponds to most sound output from most apps, at least as far as I can see.
[04:04] <DG19075> Fyda, you are right
[04:05] <jonesy> I've been using linux for many years, and the only thing about it that sucks more than sound is printing (but that's any os) ;-P
[04:05] <jonesy> thanks Fyda
[04:05] <skar> I used easyvmx.com to make an XP machine, and tried to use vmware-player to run it, but when I power up the machine, it gives me an error: "VMware Player unrecoverable error: (vcpu-0)
[04:05] <skar> Failed to allocate page for guest RAM!". How do i fix this?
[04:07] <robrrr> how can i make it so that the the root account can't be used to login? ie must su to root
[04:07] <skar> how do i change the permissions on my other partitions?
[04:07] <nickrud> skar, have you tried googling that error?
[04:07] <robdig> robrrr: by default, ubuntu has root disabled...the recommendation is to use sudo or gksudo for root access
[04:07] <skar> nickrud, oh, actually i haven't, thanks for the advice, hehe
[04:08] <nickrud> robrrr: passwd --lock <user>
[04:08] <ivan_> hi can someone help me with my wacom tablet??
[04:09] <robrrr> nickrud: thanks, will that stop the account from being used or just mean that i must su to root?
[04:09] <cvd> :-)
[04:09] <nickrud> robrrr: sudo will work, su shouldn't
[04:09] <skar> nickrud, a solution mentioned setting something to false in the "vmx", how do i edit the vmx?
[04:09] <juanbond> Hey guys, quick question... How can I disable the speaker beep when you backspace to far in terminal, or doing an illegal key stoke.
[04:10] <nickrud> skar: with a text editor :)
[04:10] <skar> nickrud, ah hehe, thanks
[04:10] <Fyda> juanbond: That's the system bell. Try looking in the Sound settings.
[04:10] <juanbond> Sounds good.
[04:10] <juanbond> Thanks!
[04:10] <Neodudeman> gutsy wont start
[04:11] <Neodudeman> it just gives me a blank screen
[04:11] <nickrud> juanbond: on the terminal, edit->current profile, untick system bell
[04:11] <Neodudeman> after grub loads
[04:11] <Fyda> Neodudeman: Try pressing Alt+F2 when it's at the black screen?
[04:11] <Neodudeman> ok, then?
[04:11] <troythetechguy> I'm looking for the "info" pages, and I don't see many of them in 7.04.  Is this common within Ubuntu?
[04:11] <Fyda> Neodudeman: I have seen 2 people with the same issue -- it turns out they have no splash screen, and Ubuntu won't finish booting unless they switch to the virtual terminal.
[04:12] <Neodudeman> weird
[04:12] <Fyda> Neodudeman: That shortcut switches to the VT. It seems that this allows the system to finish booting up. I do not know of a solution.
[04:12] <Neodudeman> what should i do in the virtual terminal?
[04:12] <Neodudeman> any commands that need be typed
[04:12] <Fyda> Neodudeman: Wait for it to finish booting up :)
[04:12] <ivan_> where can i ge helh a wacom tablet??
[04:12] <Neodudeman> oh
[04:12] <Neodudeman> lol
[04:12] <Neodudeman> ok, thanks, i'll try it now
[04:15] <robdig> troythetechguy: you probably need to install them...usually in packages that have a -doc on their name...there aren't a lot installed by default
[04:15] <mohd> Hello, is is possible to use emerald themes along with compiz fusion>
[04:15] <mohd> ?*
[04:16] <Morphius> QQ: I've followed to docs on ubuntu.com to get DVDs, but when I apt-get install libdvdplay0, the package doesn't exist.
[04:16] <troythetechguy> robdig, are the info pages more current than the man pages?
[04:16] <Morphius> And it appears taht gxine won't play DVD's without it.
[04:16] <robdig> troythetechguy: in my experience, no...many times they are exactly the same :(
[04:17] <troythetechguy> robdig, Thanks for the information.
[04:17] <Morphius> Anyone?

[04:21] <adamonline45> I'm trying to play a dvd on Kubuntu gutsy, and Kaffeine says: "The source can't be read.  Maybe you don't have enough rights for this, or source doesn't contain data (e.g: no disk in drive). (Error reading NAV packet.)"  Does anyone know what this could be?  I _do_ have a disk in the drive, of course 8)  And I can see the FBI warning before it says this...
[04:22] <ToddEDM> he guys, im trying to partition a external USB hard drive .... it is already partitioned FAT32, and im not sure what to do in Gparted, it wont let me format it!!!
[04:23] <Joey_Adams> ToddEDM> Do you care what's on there already, or are you not worried about deleting everything on there?
[04:23] <Kryll> is there a way to run windows based 3d games
[04:24] <dooglus> Kryll: yes, a friend of mine does it all the time
[04:24] <Fyda> Kryll: Some of them might work under Wine. Which one were you thinking of in particular?
[04:24] <ToddEDM> i tired to get CoD to work .. no go
[04:24] <thor> ToddEDM are you trying to format it as a fat32 drive?
[04:24] <adamonline45> Fyda: I'd like to know about Counter-Strike: Source, and equally important, hammer level editor...
[04:24] <Kryll> turf battles
[04:24] <ToddEDM> Joey_Adams:  ... i want it all gone!
[04:24] <Joey_Adams> Okay.
[04:25] <Joey_Adams> Open up a terminal, type sudo su to become root
[04:25] <ToddEDM> i want 2 partitions on it
[04:25] <Fyda> ToddEDM: Did you unmount it before trying to format it?
[04:25] <Joey_Adams> Then type fdisk -l and see what disk you want to reformat.
[04:25] <Joey_Adams> Oh, that too :)
[04:25] <ToddEDM> no fyda
[04:25] <Fyda> ToddEDM: Please unmount it in Gparted then try again :)
[04:25] <ToddEDM> ohhhhh i didnt know that it had to be unmounted
[04:25] <Joey_Adams> Yup.

[04:28] <daks> !ubotu
[04:28] <ToddEDM> hmmm i cant format to NTFS? with GParted
[04:28] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:28] <Strangework> I just upgraded to gutsy gibbon this afternoon. I am having trouble finding the correct driver for my graphics card. my graphics card is some express chipset. I am using an HP Pavilion dv6000. How can I find the correct driver?
[04:28] <adamonline45> That's what we get for not helping me for like my 12 previous requests! >:O bwarharhar
[04:28] <fiber> i was wondering if there is a method to pipe a password to the input of ssh
[04:29] <Phildo> hey - how do i stop my new install from being an ipv6 monkey? :D
[04:30] <komputes> what is the UBUNTU equvalent for the group file /etc/groups
[04:30] <robdig> !ipv6 | Phildo
[04:30] <ubotu> Phildo: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[04:30] <Phildo> ty :>
[04:31] <nickrud> Strangework: lspci | grep -i vga should tell you your chipset
[04:31] <ToddEDM> thor:  you still around
[04:31] <nickrud> komputes: /etc/group
[04:31] <thor> ToddEDM yup
[04:31] <cvd> any way to fix this, /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lncurses
[04:31] <komputes> nickrud: that is an empty file
[04:32] <komputes> nickrud: actuallt it doesn't even exist
[04:32] <ToddEDM> hey , do you know why my USB drive wont format as NTFS?
[04:32] <nickrud> komputes: not on my machine, it is and always has been
[04:32] <komputes> ToddEDM: I always format mine as Fat32, i think it's the only possibility...
[04:33] <komputes> nickrud: what version of ubuntu do you run?
[04:33] <thor> ToddEDM didn't think you could do that with usb drives even in windows...they have to be fat32
[04:33] <ToddEDM> linux wont read/write fat32, will it ?
[04:33] <ToddEDM> really.....
[04:33] <thor> ToddEDM yup...no problem
[04:33] <nickrud> komputes: gutsy, but it's inherited from debian, it's always been that file are you sure you typed it correctly? /etc/group
[04:33] <thor> ToddEDM ntfs used to be a problem, but fat32 has been around for years
[04:33] <ToddEDM> ok , well i didnt have to wipe everything off it then!!! doh
[04:34] <ToddEDM> ok cool guys thanks
[04:34] <Bryan> my Wifi doesn't work after I suspsend. I have a bcm43xx. Anyone got anything that would fix this?
[04:35] <nickrud> !suspend
[04:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about suspend - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:35] <Fyda> Bryan: Do you know which kernel model it uses?
[04:35] <Fyda> Bryan: *model -> module
[04:35] <Bryan> the latest one?
[04:35] <Bryan> it's 7.10
[04:35] <ToddEDM> my wife doesnt work after i told her she was getting chubby.... anyone got a simple fix?
[04:35] <Strangework> nickrud:  Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03), this is what I found, I cannot find an exact driver for it. May I use a substitute?
[04:35] <adamonline45> Is there a reason to install Xine if I already have kaffeine?
[04:35] <firebird619> Could someone help me with Compiz Fusion and Window Borders? I am not using the compiz in Ubuntu's repos, I am using a different repo that is a newer version of compiz. When I start it, I do not have any window borders, and windows will not move with alt+click to drag the window around. How can I fix this? I have tried emerald --replace with emerald installed, but it doesn't start.
[04:35] <Fyda> Bryan: With my wireless card, at least, I do a "sudo modprobe -r <module name>" then "sudo modprobe <module name" if it's not working after suspend
[04:35] <grzegorz> hello
[04:36] <galacticone> hey does anyone know if a live cd loads the same mac address everytime when you use wireless internet?
[04:36] <Bryan> Fyda, is there a way to enable that into a scribt or something?
[04:36] <Bryan> script*
[04:36] <Fyda> Strangework: I have that exact graphics card on this laptop, and I use the "intel" driver (which appears to be the same as i810, but I could be wrong)
[04:36] <nickrud> Strangework: you can the intel driver, it supports that chip
[04:37]  * nickrud is late again :)
[04:37] <Strangework> hm. okay, I will give that a shot, thanks guys :)
[04:37] <Fyda> Bryan: Well... you could write those two commands into a text file, make it executable, and run it,  but I don't know if this is what you mean by script ;)
[04:38] <weltall> sorry it's normal that gutsy has an extremely OLD clamtk package (old almost as feisty...)
[04:38] <komputes> nickrud:
[04:38] <komputes> sudo find / -name "groups"
[04:38] <komputes> /usr/bin/groups
[04:38] <komputes> /usr/share/restricted-manager/groups
[04:38] <nickrud> komputes: group not groups
[04:38] <adamonline45> I can't play DVDs... Can anyone help? <:D
[04:39] <kishan_> adamonline45, did u install the codecs
[04:39] <Fyda> adamonline45: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[04:39] <nickrud> weltall: normal, but maybe not optimal
[04:39] <kishan_> adamonline45, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[04:39] <komputes> nickrud:  thanks, that worked - stupid tutorial on http://www.ubuntu1501.com/
[04:40] <adamonline45> kishan_: Fyda: I isntalled the kubuntu-restricted-extras package; would that do it?
[04:40] <kishan_> no adamonline45 ,just follow the howto we send u
[04:41] <weltall> nickrud: well it's quite bad as the 2.99 version has an important feature (no file size limit) for an antivirus
[04:41] <galacticone> anyone farmiliar with ubuntu ultimate?
[04:41] <nickrud> kishan_: the packages that make gutsy were frozen back in august, so that's the latest release of all but critical or pet stuff
[04:42] <kishan_> sorry nickrud i did not get u
[04:42] <weltall> well 2.99 was of june
[04:42] <nickrud> galacticone: according to people who should know, it's a hacked up version
[04:42] <weltall> so someone forgot to update it :P
[04:42] <weltall> well i'll go for the old manual way
[04:42] <galacticone> ok does anyone know if it has a mac spoofer?
[04:43] <nickrud> weltall: yeah, the ubuntu stuff comes from debian, and sometimes it lags badly
[04:43] <weltall> ok thanks :)
[04:43] <Ashfire908> is there a guiode or anything to combining two ppp connections?
[04:44] <nickrud> weltall: don't know if you're aware of checkinstall, you should use it to make a hacked up package for installation
[04:44] <daks> so my gnome has begun lagging quite a bit when I first login, displaying the ubuntu splash screen for a long time, does anybody know what might cause this?
[04:44] <weltall> yes but i was fortunate there was a premade package on the site of the author :)
[04:45] <weltall> lucky*
[04:45] <weltall> daks: compiz
[04:45] <nickrud> the author is used to debian, i guess :)
[04:45] <weltall> :)
[04:46] <weltall> well he has also rpm packages :P
[04:46] <Ashfire908> is there a guide or anything to combining two ppp connections?
[04:46] <Strangework> okay. Um, I chose the 'intel' driver, and like you said, it still showed up as i810, now how do I know if it works properly?
[04:47] <nickrud> Strangework: look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log , there's a lot of stuff there but if you go about halfway down it'll tell you about it's recognition of the video card
[04:47] <tushyd> anyone know how to convert vcf files to csv?
[04:47] <Strangework> nickrud: Yessir
[04:48] <nickrud> Strangework: if you have trouble with it, put on paste.ubuntu-nl.org & I'll take a look
[04:49] <devin_> having some issues with here and im not finding much on forums, I'm getting this error: (dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system)

[04:50] <Mike>  Can someone please help me with flash on Firefox 64-bit?
[04:51] <Strangework> nickrud: Hm, not sure how to interpret this at all. :( but almost every number is a zero. :\
[04:52] <nickrud> Strangework: what you're looking for is the section where most lines will start with either intel or i810, it'll say if it's using the 945 capabilities
[04:52] <zzap> Fyda: You there?
[04:52] <adamonline45> kishan_: Oh wow, libdvdcss2 did it, when 3 didn't... thank you 8)

[04:53] <zzap> Fyda: I got the monitor working. :D
[04:53] <Bryan__> However, I type it into a terminal, at it works just fine
[04:53] <zzap> Fyda: Thanks for your help yesterday.
[04:53] <zzap> Fyda: Still there? :P
[04:53] <Fyda> zzap: Er, yes
[04:53] <sina> hi can anyone help me out
[04:54] <zzap> Damn netsplits.
[04:54] <Fyda> zzap: Did it work out okay? How is your display?
[04:54] <sina> im trying to get my ndiswrapper working
[04:54] <sina> iv been at it for a good hour
[04:54] <nickrud> Bryan__: leave out the sudo , and call it like sudo <file>
[04:54] <zzap> Fyda: Primary monitor works fine.
[04:54] <zzap> Fyda: But I can't get the second monitor to work. :/
[04:54] <Bryan__> nickrud, hows do I do that?
[04:54] <zzap> Fyda: Like, in the options there's the "Screen 2" there, but it's disabled.
[04:54] <sina> ANYONE
[04:54] <nickrud> Bryan__: you're calling this scipt manually, right?
[04:55] <sina> JUMP RIGHT IN ANYTIME
[04:55] <zzap> Fyda: And I can't enable it without setting it to the primary monitor.
[04:55] <adamonline45> I have an old bruce lee DVD that LOOKS like it's wide screen, but it's really just a 4:3 with a black top and bottom.  Is there a way in Kaffeine to fit-to-width?
[04:55] <devin_>  Need some help here. I tried reinstalling Konqueror because it kept using 99% cpu and now im getting ( dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system) any idea how to fix this?
[04:55] <sina> whenver u feel ready to help ill be waiting
[04:55] <Bryan__> nickrud, no I just stuck it into /etc/acpi/resume.d/ and made it an executable
[04:55] <Strangework> nickrud: I found no lines beginning with 'intel' and 'i810' never appeared, but VESA appeared a lot.
[04:56] <Fyda> zzap: I don't know, I haven't set up a dual-head system successfully yet. But there's the man page for xorg.conf's options: http://linux.die.net/man/5/xorg.conf
[04:56] <nickname6324> Hey all, I have gutsy and I get frequent crashes and lockups when browsing the web or doing other regular activities. Is there any one to begin troubleshooting these errors?
[04:56] <zzap> Fyda: Hmm, so you think I'll have to edit the .conf?
[04:56] <nickname6324> Firefox crashes all the time
[04:56] <nickrud> Strangework: then you're not getting the intel driver during X startup alright. How did you set up the config? sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , and selecting the driver is recommended
[04:57] <Fyda> zzap: Perhaps? I'm not sure that there's a tool that could reliably detect your hardware and generate a correct, working xorg.conf
[04:57] <Fyda> Someone might correct me on that though :/
[04:57]  * IpMooIng tips hatt
[04:58] <Strangework> nickrud: excuse me? I didn't understand that last statement
[04:58] <nickrud> Fyda: we could wish for that on dual configs :(
[04:58] <nickrud> Strangework: run the following:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg   . It'll ask you to select a driver, choose intel

[05:00] <juanbond> thank you, i'm trying to setup my user to belong to the apache group.
[05:00] <zzap> Fyda: Hmm, I'll do some research on it. Also, when I go into the "Add/Remove Programs" app., like half the applications say they can't work because of my hardware being i386 or something. ?
[05:00] <sina> as soon as someone can hook me up wit some aid cause my hairs kinda fallin out here
[05:00] <sina> see issue is
[05:00] <nickrud> juanbond: why? and you'd do sudo adduser <user> www-data
[05:00] <tritium> juanbond: you'd use: sudo adduser <username> <group>
[05:00] <sina> i cant use ndiswrapper
[05:00] <Fyda> zzap: I'm not familiar with that, sorry.
[05:00] <tritium> !enter | sina

[05:01] <Bryan> wow
[05:01] <Bryan> okay
[05:01] <nickrud> Strangework: now take a look at the /etc/X11/xorg.conf , see what driver it used (should have asked)
[05:01] <sina> yes sir will do forgive me i am a nub i will not use enter as punctuation but do u know wat i can do about ndiswrapper not working
[05:01] <cvd> a have to write the numbers to the left to compile in cobol? 000010,00020?

[05:02] <Johnny_5> how do i adjust enlightenment so the menus aren't too big without changing the theme?
[05:02] <nickrud> Strangework: are you sure you used -phigh ? I just tested it here again
[05:02] <Aztec007> any cute girls here?
[05:02] <Strangework> nickrud: yah, claims it is using intel
[05:02] <Bryan> so this is a weird one: my wifi returns when I get out of suspend. BUT it won't connect to anything. When I type in "sudo modprobe -r -f bcm43xx" and "sudo modprobe bcm43xx" into the terminal it restarts my drivers and THEN I can connect to WAP's. Is there anyway I can put this in a script, so I don't have to type this into a terminal everytime I get back form suspend?
[05:02] <tritium> Aztec007: that's offtopic here
[05:02] <nickrud> nickname6324: you would need rm -rf (recursive , force )
[05:03] <nickname6324> thanks
[05:03] <Aztec007> just kidding bro
[05:03] <onats> does anyone know where i can find apt.conf?
[05:03] <Aztec007> i actually had a question on running X on gentoo
[05:03] <nickrud> Strangework: ok, logging out, hit clt-alt-backspace , log back in. Take a look at that log file again
[05:03] <nickrud> onats: /etc/apt
[05:04] <Aztec007> It doesnt recognize my ATI All in wonder
[05:04] <juanbond> How can I remove my user from the www-data group?
[05:04] <tritium> Aztec007: this is an _ubuntu_ channel
[05:04] <onats> nickrud, i only see apt.conf.d directory

[05:04] <Johnny_5> how do i adjust enlightenment so the menus aren't too big without changing the theme?
[05:04] <Aztec007> woops
[05:04] <Strangework> ok
[05:04] <Aztec007> joing #Gentoo
[05:04] <nickrud> onats: that's the new method, apt will read all the fragments there and combine them to create apt.conf on the fly each time it's called
[05:05] <Fyda> Johnny_5: Adjust the font sizes, perhaps? If I recall correctly, E allows for changing that for individual elements
[05:05] <onats> nickrud, which file should i put in Acquire::http::Proxy “http://apt-cache-machine:3142″;?
[05:05] <nickrud> onats: you'd look for the options there you want to change; if it's not already set, make a new fragment there
[05:05] <Darius08x> About how big should my swap and root partion be?
[05:05] <Darius08x> hahaha, oh wow

[05:06] <Strangework> nickrud: Did it, what I noticed is that when I logged out, I went into a terminal window. later, a box came up saying I was in "low graphics mode" :(
[05:06] <nickrud> onats: use a new fragment, the reason debian uses those *.d directories is so you or dev's can adjust the behavior without affecting any other package
[05:06] <Johnny_5> Fyda: how do i get to it?
[05:06] <Bryan> so this is a weird one: my wifi returns when I get out of suspend. BUT it won't connect to anything.

[05:07] <onats> nickrud, so if i just add a file there, it will automatically include it, irregardless of naming convention?
[05:07] <nickrud> Strangework: put you /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log on that pastebin

[05:07] <MikeOxbigger> Wtf...I cannot see my mouse :(
[05:08] <Shadow147> I have to use the nvidia-glx-legacy drivers
[05:08] <onats> nickrud, how would i know btw, if the proxying would work? would you know?

[05:08] <ubotu> Shadow147: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:08] <Strangework> nickrud: what category do I place it under?
[05:08] <Fyda> Johnny_5: Are you using E17?
[05:08] <cvd> Hey thats was the problem. i do not write the first 6
[05:08] <nickrud> Strangework: open each file in gedit, then copy and paste. Just stick it up there, and put the link here. Category isn't really relevant
[05:08] <onats> nickrud, i'm planning to use the acquire http proxy, so that the package manager can fall back to the internet, in case the cacher is offline...
[05:09] <nickrud> onats: I'd make it 90
[05:09] <Fyda> Johnny_5: In E17, go to the main menu -> Configuration -> Configuration Panel, then under Appearance, open Fonts.
[05:10] <onats> nickrud, yeah, but upon placing it there, how do i know my system's actually using the proxy, and not the sources from internet repositories?
[05:10] <MikeOxbigger> Help...I cannot see my mouse pointer...my computer is pwning me >;(
[05:10] <nickrud> onats: you can see how apt will see it with cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/*
[05:10] <game> hello lovely ubuntu users,
[05:10] <Fyda> Johnny_5: The Advanced mode in the Fonts dialog should let you select specific elements (eg. title bars, menu items, menu titles) and adjust their font style
[05:10] <Johnny_5> i think i may be using e16 because i don't see anything like that
[05:10] <nickrud> onats: now that I don't know, I've never run a proxy so I've never learned
[05:10] <Johnny_5> k
[05:10] <CoasterMaster> whoooo
[05:11] <onats> nickrud, ok, thanks for your help still... will test it out
[05:11] <Strangework> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47184/
[05:11] <Fyda> Johnny_5: Well, I don't have e16, but I figure it should be similar -- probably available in the control panel somewhere.
[05:11] <game> i would like to know. that my school has WIFI and i cant use chat room. does any one know why?
[05:11] <Johnny_5> k
[05:11] <IpMooIng> humm
[05:11] <game> hmmm
[05:11] <Fyda> game: They might've blocked it? :P
[05:12] <IpMooIng> or is that yeehaw
[05:12] <MikeOxbigger> I cannot see my mouse pointer, and ideas anyone?
[05:12] <juanbond> Thanks for the help tonight!
[05:12] <MikeOxbigger> any*
[05:13] <Bryan> how do you get a script to run automatically after unsuspending?
[05:13] <UbuntMe> Wasup guys??
[05:13] <paragonc> is there a way to install from the default cd w/o using a GUI?
[05:13] <Johnny_5> <MikeOxbigg  er:reboot
[05:13] <nickrud> Strangework: ok, now the xorg.conf. But possibly, try logging out and check to see if you're using the gnome session or the failsafe session (look under options on the screen)
[05:13] <game> Fyda: i used wireschirk and it went nuts.. well the network. is using wire shark illegal
[05:13] <MikeOxbigger> Johnny_5: Okay, but then how do I stop this from happening again?
[05:14] <MikeOxbigger> And/or what causes it?
[05:14] <UbuntMe> Hey, i need some quick help.  I just downloaded JAVA from the java website but i dont know how to install it.  The files is  jre-6u3-linux-i586.bin and its on my desktop.  Could one of you possibley give me a code that i could put in the terminal to install this?   Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:15] <paragonc> seems like i should be able to do a command line install
[05:15] <UbuntMe> Can someone just give me a terminal command please?  I'm kinda in a rush.
[05:15] <cvd> what is the terminal command to show the kernel and ubuntu version?
[05:16] <nickrud> UbuntMe: that factoid is a bit out of date, the web page should be more current
[05:16] <IpMooIng> u gott learn dude
[05:16] <nickrud> UbuntMe: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin (you don't need the file from sun)
[05:16] <Strangework> nickrud: hm.. I have found no xorg.log. :\
[05:17] <nickrud> Strangework: /etc/X11/xorg.conf <-- conf :)
[05:17] <Darius08x> About how big should I make my swap and root partiton? I'm installing ubuntu 7.10 desktop edition and it's on a 160GB HDD?
[05:17] <Strangework> OH!
[05:17] <Strangework> sorry sorry sorry. >_<
[05:17] <nickrud> cvd: lsb_release -a
[05:17] <nickrud> Strangework: no worries, it's all new
[05:17] <devin_>  Need some help here. I tried reinstalling Konqueror because it kept using 99% cpu and now im getting ( dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system) any idea how to fix this?
[05:17] <kelsin> Darius08x: swap should be between 2x and 1x of your ram, depending, root can be the rest but I normally make home a separate partition to ease when reinstalling
[05:18] <devin_> tired it as root
[05:18] <UbuntMe> nickrud: thanks dude! rock on
[05:18] <devin_> don't understand
[05:18] <nickrud> Darius08x: 15gb root, 2xram up to about 2gb, the rest /home
[05:18] <nickrud> Darius08x: 2gb swap that is
[05:18] <Bryan> how do you get a script to run automatically after un-suspending?  anyone?
[05:18] <Darius08x> Ok, thank you nickrud
[05:18] <cvd> Hey any editor to add 6 spaces/numbers etc  automaticaty in each line?
[05:18] <alevine> anyone know what library the function XMoveWindow belongs to?
[05:18] <Strangework> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47185/ here ya go!
[05:19] <cvd> to the left
[05:19] <nickrud> Bryan: the scripts in /etc/acpi.d/resume.d get run on resume, but I'd hesitate to mess with that myself
[05:19] <s1ntax> Are there any data recovery tools i can run on an NTFS drive from ubuntu?
[05:20] <danayelx> guys, for networking questions where do I go?
[05:20] <danayelx> well, ubuntu related net questions
[05:20] <nickrud> Strangework: lspci | grep -i vga , could you show me the one line output of that
[05:21] <cvd> .
[05:21] <Strangework> nickrud: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[05:21] <mrAshley> Has anyone gotten the svideo out for an i810 on an HP dv1000 series to work? (or any combination thereof)
[05:21] <thor> s1ntax none that are linux based that I know of. It might be possible to run some windows software using wine to recover the data
[05:21] <nickrud> Strangework: ok, I was wondering about the bus id, I guess that's right
[05:21] <s1ntax> hmm
[05:22] <Strangework> nickrud: I beg your pardon? I am rather stupid with this stuff. >_<
[05:22] <annihilus> can someone explain why i am getting sound from cd's over speakers but not from anything else (youtube videos, etc)
[05:22] <cvd> Diag
[05:22] <cvd> Dialog
[05:22] <cvd> DIALOG
[05:22] <onats> question on apt-cacher, i'm trying to do a proxy method, in my other computers, which point to the server which containts the apt-cacher. now, for the primary source of these "client" pc's, does it need to have the same repository (e.g. us.ubuntu.com, as what is stored/being used by the apt-cacher server)?
[05:22] <mrAshley> annihilus: just audio cds? that's it?
[05:23] <danayelx> oh sound, that too, how doe I make it so that my laptop stops making this loud annoying sound when i close it?
[05:23] <nickrud> Strangework: ok, the config looks right. (I meant the PCI:0:2:0 in the config) . I'd log out, click the options button, and make sure I'm not using the failsafe mode.
[05:24] <Strangework> nickrud: I will do just that :)
[05:24] <cvd> its there away so xchat automatically load this channel at statup?
[05:24] <cvd> or the server
[05:24] <cvd> ?
[05:24] <annihilus> mrAshley, yeah just audio cd's
[05:25] <onats> eny1?
[05:25] <nickrud> cvd: yes, xchat->network list , select freenode, edit, and click auto connect and add ubuntu to the channel list
[05:25] <Strangework> nickrud: I am back
[05:25] <nickrud> Strangework: ok, does the log have anything nice to say? If not, I'm at a loss
[05:26] <Strangework> nickrud: xorg.0.log I assume?
[05:26] <mrAshley> annihilus: My first suggestion would be to check your audio volume settings.. do you know how?
[05:26] <nickrud> Strangework: yes :)
[05:26] <nickrud> danayelx: it makes that sound when you go to suspend?
[05:27] <danayelx> well, yeah, i close the laptop
[05:27] <danayelx> then it starts making the sound
[05:27] <root_> hi I am having problems with my harddrives  going to about 55C anyone know how I can fix this >?
[05:27] <nickrud> danayelx: then don't close the lid :) (I don't, because I don't get my screen back)
[05:28] <danayelx> right, thats the issue, what can we do about it, or is it something that we have to live with?
[05:28] <danayelx> im used to working on my laptop, walking out w it, and openig it in the next room etc
[05:28] <nickrud> danayelx: sorry for being a fart there, I make jokes about suspend so I don't cry
[05:28] <danayelx> with fedora i didnt have this issue
[05:28] <annihilus77> mrAshley, sry im using a diff name, got kicked randomly
[05:28] <danayelx> lol
[05:29] <danayelx> someone turn them ddosers into an heroes plz
[05:29] <danayelx> :P
[05:29] <danayelx> stealz their ipods!!!
[05:30] <Strangework> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47186/ hope this yields good results. >_<
[05:31] <nickrud> Strangework: the vesa is recognizing your chip; one last try: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf , manually change   intel   to   i810  , log out and try again.
[05:31] <nickname6324> What text editors do you use for coding ?
[05:32] <danayelx> gedit
[05:32] <navynewyorker> Hi I'm a newbie to linux and I need help with an install
[05:32] <ciclo> i didn't do anything just now, just stay on the desktop, but the utilization of CPU is always higher than 50%. I didn think it's nomoral, and used "top". I found it's naulitus and trackerd who take up so much cpu. I killed them and everything is okay. It's strange; can anybody tell me why did these to process occurs while I didn't open them at all
[05:32] <Javid> !install | navynewyorker
[05:32] <ubotu> navynewyorker: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[05:32] <nickrud> nickname6324: my little stuff I use eclipse , emacs , gphpedit , gedit
[05:32] <nickname6324> thanks nickrud
[05:33] <Jack_Sparrow> !ask | navynewyorker
[05:33] <ubotu> navynewyorker: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:33] <kelsin> nickname6324: emacs all the way
[05:33] <Javid> !lol
[05:33] <ubotu> Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.
[05:33] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: sorry, a bit slow on the draw
[05:33] <navynewyorker> well I did the install and upon reboot it get a Grub error 17 in the bios prompt
[05:33] <nickrud> nickname6324: I use eclipse in emacs emulation, by the way :)
[05:33] <nickname6324> what do you mean?
[05:34] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: ask your question..
[05:34] <nickrud> nickname6324: more a response to kelsin , and a plug for emacs
[05:34] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: what in particular are you having trouble wiht
[05:34] <nickname6324> lol you respond to me but really mean to respond to kelsin
[05:35] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: are you trying to dual boot?
[05:35] <navynewyorker> during start-up i get a "grub error 17" message and the computer locks up
[05:35] <nickrud> nickname6324: eh, I figured you'd read it all in context, might miss it if directed at kelsin. kelsin seems to follow multiple convo's here easily
[05:35] <nickname6324> lol
[05:35] <kelsin> nickname6324: esp when my name is on every other line :)
[05:36] <Strangework> nickrud: Post up my xorg.0.log?
[05:36]  * nickrud adds extra text so I can lol
[05:36] <rabi> navynewyorker: what is ur problem in shortcut.
[05:36] <Fyda> navynewyorker: Okay, that error is "Cannot mount selected partition". Could have a few different causes.
[05:36] <nickrud> Strangework: sure, but look at it yourself first: where the others have vesa, you should see i810
[05:36] <Jack_Sparrow> rabi: He installed and now has grub error.  I asked if he was trying to dual boot.
[05:37] <onats> anyone here who can help me with apt-cacher?
[05:37] <Fyda> navynewyorker: How many hard drives are attached to the system?
[05:37] <navynewyorker> jack: i have winxp installed. made a partition for linux, and install
[05:37] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: fine.. I dual boot here too..
[05:37] <Fyda> navynewyorker: also, what did you do during installation? Did you manually edit the partitions?
[05:37] <navynewyorker> fyda: one 160gb hard drive
[05:38] <navynewyorker> fyda: yes
[05:38] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: If you manually created the ext3 (or other) it would work better if you made it smaller and left unallocated space for the installer to do it on its own
[05:39] <Strangework> nickrud: i810 wasn't found :(
[05:39] <navynewyorker> with partition magic i made a 20gb partition in winxp
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: you will have an extra ext3.. which we will use
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: partition magic is fine.
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: is that 20 for xp or for Ubuntu
[05:40] <nickrud> Strangework: either something strange is working here, or I am freaking blind. I'd look for better help, either here or on the forums. Paste links to the log and conf
[05:40] <navynewyorker> then installed ubuntu unto that partition, using ext3
[05:40] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: what about swap space?
[05:40] <UbuntMe> Ok, that thing that someone told me to put into the terminal to get java dident work.  Sooo, how do I install the file jre-6u3-linux-i586.bin thats on my desktop?
[05:40] <navynewyorker> jack: 2gb
[05:40] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: can you get to xp.?
[05:41] <nickrud> UbuntMe: what does java -version in a terminal say?
[05:41] <navynewyorker> jack: no, it freezes when i get errror 17
[05:41] <Strangework> nickrud: Hehehe.. My name appeared in that sentence.. Well, thank you for your effort nickrud, I will post them up immediately. I truly appreciate how much you put into my little problem. :)
[05:41] <nickrud> Strangework: it should be a simple problem ;(
[05:42] <UbuntMe> oh, hi nickrud,  well, it worked.  But it dosent work..  Like, it installed and everything with no error message, but it dodent do anything
[05:42] <navynewyorker> I tried hitting "esc" to edit grub, no joy
[05:42] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: fdisk /mbr     will get you back into windows...  use partition magic and delete the linux partition... boot live and let ubuntu set it up
[05:42] <nickrud> UbuntMe: by 'doesn't do anything', could you give a concrete example?
[05:42] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: are you running livecd now
[05:42] <Jack_Sparrow> !doesntwork
[05:42] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[05:42] <navynewyorker> jack: yes
[05:43] <navynewyorker> I think, I'm running off the CD
[05:43]  * nickrud notes that factoid
[05:43] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: do you have a boot floppy?
[05:43] <navynewyorker> jack: no floopy drive
[05:43] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: booting live, does that cd offer an option to boot the hard drive?
[05:44] <navynewyorker> Jack: can't recall, i don't think so
[05:44] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: fdisk -l      small l   in a cli
[05:44] <navynewyorker> it's 7.10
[05:44] <Fyda> Strangework: I am puzzled, too, that it isn't working for you. I'd be interested in your xorg.conf and perhaps the output of 'dpkg -l | grep xserver-xorg-video-
[05:44] <navynewyorker> Cli?
[05:45] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: terminal window
[05:45] <Fyda> Strangework: Oops, forgot a closing '
[05:45] <Strangework> Fyda: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47185/ this is my xorg :)
[05:45] <UbuntMe> nickrud: ok, I installed it, i try to use a yahoo thing that requires java, and go to the java site and it says i need java.
[05:45] <nickrud> UbuntMe: what does java -version in a terminal say?
[05:46] <nickrud> UbuntMe: that is, does it say version 1.6.0 .. etc?
[05:46] <Fyda> Strangework: Well, that's odd -- the xorg.conf looks fine...
[05:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Strangework: line 81 or so.. I dont see refresh rates.. that might help
[05:47] <nickrud> UbuntMe: and, did you do the full line I gave, including the sun-java6-plugin ?
[05:47] <navynewyorker> Jack: response is, command not found
[05:47] <UbuntMe> nickrud:  how do i find out?
[05:47] <UbuntMe> yes, i did
[05:47] <UbuntMe> wait, maybe not
[05:48] <Strangework> Jack_Sparrow: oh damn.. X__X what do you think about this?
[05:48] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker:   sorry  sudo fdisk -l
[05:48] <nickrud> UbuntMe: java -version in a terminal, will spit out the version you are using. And, dpkg -l 'sun-java*' , the packages with ii at the beginning are installed
[05:48] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: cut and paste requires Shift Key
[05:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Strangework: I really need to go.. but I think you are getting the card right but not the monitor info
[05:50] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: he's getting vesa, not i810 in the log
[05:50] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: I saw that too...
[05:50] <UbuntMe> paistbin?
[05:50] <Jack_Sparrow> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:50] <UbuntMe> How do i get to the paisnbin nick?
[05:51] <navynewyorker> Jack: ok originally showed 4 boot device, then one"/dev/sdb1"
[05:51] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: one of my lappys gave me fits for res until I corrected that
[05:51] <UbuntMe> 0
[05:51] <UbuntMe> tks
[05:51] <nickrud> Strangework: and Fyda has a very good point: COLUMNS=255 dpkg -l 'xserver-xorg-video-*' , is the intel and i810 listed as installed?
[05:52] <Strangework> nickrud: I am not sure, how can I check?
[05:53] <UbuntMe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47187/
[05:53] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: I dont have time to troubleshoot grub atm..   someone may be able to help.. or boot xp cd into recovery mode and do fdisk /mbr   not to be confused with terminal or cli command line interface.. sorry.  Just getting tired.
[05:53] <nickrud> Strangework: copy and paste that command, if the line starts with ii it's installed
[05:53] <Strangework> OH!
[05:53] <Strangework> whoops. :P
[05:54] <navynewyorker> Jack: It's cool thanks for your help, good night
[05:54] <Jack_Sparrow> navynewyorker: navy inspector.. retired in san diego
[05:54] <Jack_Sparrow> goodnight all.
[05:55] <Strangework> goonight!
[05:55] <UbuntMe> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47187/
[05:55] <Strangework> nickrud: Found it, both are installed
[05:55] <IpMooIng> aint just this  server getting hitt
[05:55] <dwj> hi
[05:56] <nickrud> UbuntMe: nope, you don't have the plugin installed:  sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin
[05:56] <Fyda> !hi | dwj
[05:56] <ubotu> dwj: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:56] <nickrud> Strangework: oh, well, it was a thought
[05:56] <dwj> hehe
[05:56] <IpMooIng> nickrud: how long u been using  linux
[05:56] <Strangework> nickrud: Heh, better than what I am doing.. :P
[05:56] <nickrud> IpMooIng: I switched in 2000
[05:57]  * IpMooIng sighs 2 yrs ago
[05:57] <dwj> everybody can't speak english :)
[05:57] <IpMooIng> i should been on this 15 yrs ago
[05:57] <nickrud> IpMooIng: heh, me also. I actually used minix, but totally missed linux.
[05:58] <nickrud> dwj: yup, and there's lots of language specific channels
[05:58] <IpMooIng> well given mi family background.. wish it was nix
[05:58] <dwj> ok
[05:58] <jaypro> whats a good program that plays dvds?
[05:58] <dwj> ok
[05:59] <noiesmo> jaypro, vlc player
[05:59] <nickrud> jaypro: vlc, mplayer, gxine are the most capable ones
[05:59] <jaypro> vlc? hrmm...i have that and i dont know how to open the file
[05:59] <Learning-Ubuntu> Hi all, Im trying to run a vnstat frontend on my computer so I dont have to open a terminal always for it. The first step says to confirm whether I have a working PHP setup. Im guessing I do but how would I confirm it. Does being able to browse other forums count?
[06:00] <jaypro> oh nm...i got it.. but it looks all fucked up
[06:00] <nickrud> jaypro: open vlc, and file->open disk
[06:00] <nickname6324> What are your favorite ubuntu Links?>
[06:00] <nickrud> !libdvdcss | jaypro
[06:00] <ubotu> jaypro: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[06:00] <nickname6324> !links
[06:00] <ubotu> Do NOT post links to Gutsy ISO files before an official release announcement is made.  These files are not the final release and will cause confusion.  Doing so will get you removed from the channel.
[06:00] <jaypro> nickrud yeah i opened it, but it looks all messed up
[06:01] <jaypro> oh okay.... thanks nickrud
[06:01] <nickrud> jaypro: you probably need libdvdcss to decrypt the disk
[06:01] <robrrr> is there somewhere i could get a default copy of: /etc/ssh/ssh_conf
[06:01] <Tanmaya> I can connect to internet via adsl but it breaks off after some time .. why ?
[06:01] <dwj> debian and unbuntu are ????
[06:01] <Strangework> nickrud: okay, I posted up a thread in the ubuntu forums
[06:01] <paragonc> whats the proper way to change the resolution in 7.10
[06:01] <Strangework> nickrud: I will check back later tomorrow, now, I am off to bed
[06:01] <Strangework> Goodnight everyone! :)
[06:02] <robrrr> good night
[06:02] <dwj> here !is morning
[06:02] <Tanmaya> here afternoon
[06:02] <nickrud> robrrr: you can get a copy of the deb on packages.ubuntu.com, and open it with archive manager
[06:02] <Learning-Ubuntu> COuld anyone tell me how to make this work http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Networking/vnstat-PHP-frontend-25160.shtml on my Ubuntu machine
[06:02] <ToddEDM> hey guys, my wife is using the Desktop upstairs, which is connected to the same wifi router as this laptop... is there a way i can send a message up to her.... without actually talking to her ;)
[06:02] <Pandemic> Hiya
[06:02] <robrrr> nickrud: thanks
[06:03] <Pandemic> Quick question: Is there a way to add the nm-applet icon to my menubar?
[06:03] <dwj> /etc/issue meaning?
[06:05] <Pandemic> Anyone know how I can add nm-applet to my menu bar?
[06:05] <nickrud> dwj: inextricably related
[06:06] <jaypro> worry nickrud, whats that link again?
[06:06] <jaypro> worry = sorry
[06:06] <nickrud> !medibuntu | jaypro (I'd do the wget stuff at the bottom)
[06:06] <ubotu> jaypro (I'd do the wget stuff at the bottom): medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[06:06] <jaypro> ahhh thanks!
[06:07] <robrrr> nickrud: im new to linux how would i download the package so it won't install, i've only ever used apt-get
[06:08] <jaypro> hrmm that wasnt the one
[06:08] <nickrud> robrrr: use these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu#head-381bea41610683e5e26322fd7028e7aef85e3105
[06:09] <robrrr> nickrud: thanks
[06:09] <nickrud> robrrr: sorry, wrong person
[06:09] <UbuntMe> nickrud:   it dident change anything, results where the same
[06:10] <robrrr> nickrud: lol ok :)
[06:10] <nickrud> robrrr: you can do sudo apt-get install --download-only ssh-server ; the file will be in /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:11] <nickrud> UbuntMe: hrm, maybe you also need sudo update-alternatives --config java ; choose the sun one. It should be chosen automatically, though
[06:12] <cvd>  and how how to join more than one network at the same time at starttip, i want Freenode and Undernet
[06:12] <robrrr> nickrud: great thanks
[06:12] <nickrud> jaypro: the link I gave just above to robrrr , the link to help.ubuntu.com is the instructions you want
[06:13] <cvd> ?
[06:13] <nickrud> cvd, I've never tried more than one, but repeat the stuff you did with freenode?
[06:14] <cvd> ups my bad
[06:14] <Shadow147> th is line of code added to xorg.conf works Section "Extensions"    Option  "Composite" "Disable" EndSection
[06:14] <UbuntMe> nickrud:  so, what do i do?
[06:15] <Shadow147> any of the errors I got using opengl or uging wine stopped coming up
[06:15] <nickrud> UbuntMe: again, what does java -version tell you?
[06:16] <UbuntMe> java version "1.5.0_11"
[06:16] <UbuntMe> Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_11-b03)
[06:16] <UbuntMe> Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_11-b03, mixed mode, sharing)
[06:16] <regeya> meh.
[06:16] <nickrud> UbuntMe: ok, do:  sudo update-alternatives --config java  , then select the sun 1.6 you installed
[06:18] <UbuntMe> nickrud:  select what?

[06:21] <UbuntMe> wait, no
[06:21] <UbuntMe> no it dosent

[06:21] <jrib> gvsa123: by mozilla, you mean something other than firefox?
[06:21] <gvsa123> jrib: oh sorry... i mean Firefox
[06:22] <nickrud> robrrr: ah, you need to install mc , it's a text file browser. It'll open a deb package
[06:22] <robrrr> nickrud: thanks! :)
[06:22] <jrib> gvsa123: you should just need to visit a page that requires flash and click on "install" on the yellow bar that pops up
[06:22] <gvsa123> jrib: i clicked on install missing plugins and installed the adobe plugin, but i still can't view flash.. youtube for example
[06:22] <nickrud> robrrr: mc is just fantastic in a terminal
[06:22] <jrib> gvsa123: ah, when did you do this?
[06:23] <gvsa123> jrib: just last night... there were two options for plugins... i chose the adobe...
[06:23] <nickrud> UbuntMe: if you did:  sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin , yes it's there
[06:23] <MLeBlanc> Hello there, is anybody running WoW on Ubuntu?
[06:24] <jrib> gvsa123: yes, adobe released a new version so you won't be able to use the package in apt until it is updated.  For now, you can download the tar.gz from adobe and install the plugin intor ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[06:24] <daya> what command is used to run webcam

[06:28] <LimCore> does ubuntu supoport flash?
[06:28] <nickrud> LimCore: flash, not shockwave
[06:28] <LimCore> gnash sucks,  and adobe flash (for amd64) sucks even more, both fail to play correctly youtube
[06:28] <LimCore> how to watch youtube on ubuntu amd64
[06:28] <jrib> LimCore: youtube plays fine here with flash with nspluginwrapper on amd64
[06:28] <LimCore> jrib: in firefox it says I dont have flash at all
[06:29] <ssam> i need to mount my ntfs partition
[06:29] <ssam> help
[06:29] <jrib> !ntfs > ssam (read the private message from ubotu)
[06:29] <LimCore> I clicked ffox to install it, restared, now ffox says it have flash, but still nothing plays
[06:29] <jrib> LimCore: yes, adobe released a new version so you won't be able to use the package in apt until it is updated
[06:29] <nickname6243> Hey all, is there a good program for ubuntu to make beats with?
[06:30] <jrib> !flash64 > limcore (read the private message from ubotu)
[06:30] <ssam> does 7.10 has diskmounter by default?
[06:30] <nickrud> jrib: I've been thinking about giving 64bit another chance, are there any gotcha's left?
[06:31] <jrib> LimCore: that page has manual instructions for using nspluginwrapper, just note that there is a package for nspluginwrapper in gutsy so do not convert an rpm
[06:31] <LimCore> hmm thanx jrib
[06:31] <jrib> nickrud: sun java plugin is all I can think of
[06:32] <nickrud> jrib: and that can be got around ...
[06:32] <nickname6243> IS there anyway to find the origin of my crashes/lockups?
[06:32] <jrib> nickrud: yep, that's the only thing that ubuntu does not automatically take care of for you.  There are some windows movie codecs too that you only get from w32codecs
[06:32] <nickname6243> automatix2
[06:33] <jrib> !automatix | nickname6243
[06:33] <ubotu> nickname6243: automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe »
[06:33] <nickrud> jrib: thanks
[06:33] <nickname6243> lol
[06:33] <ssam> jrib: As of Ubuntu 6.04 (Dapper Drake) there is slightly more NTFS writing support
[06:33] <ssam> through a very experimental NTFS FUSE module. Using this seems to work but
[06:33] <ssam> is NOT recommended. Do you want to use this? [no]
[06:33] <ssam> what should i do?
[06:33] <UbuntMe> nickrud:  Arg...  dident work.. Oh well, thanks for helping me.
[06:34] <jrib> ssam: umm, there is no such thing as 6.04.  What docs are these exactly?  And what version of ubuntu are you using?
[06:34] <ssam> 7.10
[06:34] <ssam> id mount it manually if ud guide me
[06:34] <nickrud> my favorite text substitution: w f m -> Worked For Me™
[06:35] <onats> does anyone know how i can change X resolution in command prompt?
[06:35] <ssam> but i am using diskmounter
[06:35] <jrib> ssam: and my first question?
[06:35] <ssam> i dont understand what docs?
[06:35] <ssam> could u ellaborate place
[06:35] <jrib> ssam: where did you read what you just pasted
[06:35] <jrib> ?
[06:35] <ssam> oh
[06:35] <ssam> terminal
[06:35] <ssam> the link u sent me
[06:35] <jrib> !enter | ssam
[06:35] <ubotu> ssam: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:36] <ssam> said cd wget http://media.ubuntu-nl.org/scripts/diskmounter
[06:36] <jrib> ssam: just use ntfs-config
[06:36] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > ssam (read the private message from ubotu)
[06:36] <ssam> its not showing...the partitions are not visible
[06:36] <jrib> ssam: with ntfs-config?
[06:36] <linxuz3r_> sup guys
[06:37] <ssam> dont know about that just letting you know the partitions are not visible....
[06:37] <jrib> ssam: visible where?
[06:37] <ssam> on ubuntu i cant see them let alone access them
[06:37] <shishio> guys, i am currently installing Flash on my Mozilla and it has two options which will i pick: the Gnash SWF player or the Adobe Flash player... ?
[06:37] <jrib> ssam: where are you looking
[06:37] <jrib> !who | ssam
[06:37] <ubotu> ssam: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[06:38] <shishio> guys, i am currently installing Flash on my Mozilla and it has two options which will i pick: the Gnash SWF player or the Adobe Flash player... ?
[06:38] <ssam> jrib: i cant seemt o see my partitions on ubuntu GUI though fdisk -l makes them visible on the terminal there not mounted it says
[06:38] <nickname6243> Hey you know wha't sucks?
[06:39] <jrib> shishio: no need to repeat.  gnash is open source and adobe is the official adobe one.  Trying to install adobe's at the moment will probably fail, so if you want that one, you should download the tar.gz from adobe and install it manually to ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[06:39] <jrib> ssam: ok, use ntfs-config then
[06:39] <ssam> alright
[06:39] <gvsa124> jrib: what was that path
[06:39] <jrib> gvsa124: path for?
[06:39] <gvsa124> jrib: oh there you go.. someone has the same problem as i do
[06:39] <shishio> jrib: so i can choose the adobe flash player riht>?
[06:39] <shishio> rught*?
[06:39] <gvsa124> jrib: the mozilla plugin
[06:40] <ssam> jrib: one more thing.......do you know how to compile a code?
[06:40] <gvsa124> jrib: do i have to uninstall the adobe i got from the plugin finder?
[06:40] <jrib> shishio: I just said it will probably not work at the moment because adobe has a new version and the package has not been updated.  But you can try of course.  I recommend installing manually to ~/.mozilla/plugins/ until the package is updated.
[06:41] <shishio> jrib: okey
[06:41] <jrib> gvsa124: doesn't matter, but if you leave it installed, you will be notified of the updated package when it arrives
[06:41] <jrib> !compile > ssam (read the private message from ubotu)
[06:41] <ssam> thanks
[06:41] <jrib> ssam: it is very rare that you will need to compile something on ubuntu
[06:42] <gvsa124> jrib: even if i manually install the flash player 9... it will update and fix itself automatically?
[06:42] <cocox> does anybody has the link to "fashion desktops" in ubuntu forums?? i used to but now is lost i have been searching and i cant found it
[06:43] <ozzloy> can i get some help with this please: http://rafb.net/p/Akimen65.html  ??
[06:43] <jrib> gvsa124: the package installs to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/.  You will install manually to ~/.mozilla/plugins/.  Firefox will prefer the one in ~
[06:43] <ssam> jrib: i need to convert flv to avi there is a site which said this is the code save it as as a file.sh and all that
[06:43] <ozzloy> screen resolution changing messed up compiz, please help
[06:43] <ozzloy> ?
[06:43] <gvsa124> jrib: i see... thanks a lot
[06:43] <jrib> ssam: that's a shell script, you don't compile it
[06:43] <ssam> jrib: then what do i do?
[06:44] <xyvuoeua> argh! pirates. i need some help. i've been toiling for an hour now and i can't get vlc to play back this fricken wmv trailer. it's wierd because it plays in beos but not on linux.
[06:45] <jrib> ssam: I would recommend opening it in a text editor and reading it first to make sure it is safe.  You can execute it by making it executable first (chmod +x FILENAME.sh) and then executing it (./FILENAME.sh).  Or, just have the shell read it (sh FILENAME.sh).  You need to be in the directory where FILENAME.sh is located
[06:45] <jrib> !cli > ssam (read the private message from ubotu)
[06:45] <cocox> does anybody has the link to "fashion desktops" in ubuntu forums?? i used to but now is lost i have been searching and i cant found it
[06:45] <jrib> ssam: make sure you read the extra links at the bottom

[06:50] <subzero800> I need help
[06:50] <chief> hi, I installed ubuntu sound studio, it install another kernel ( I think judging from the grub menu ), but when it boots into xorg it crashes any idea why? considering it should be using the xorg.conf that I'm using now which is functional.
[06:50] <subzero800> How do I install 3 packages at once and ignore dependancy errors?
[06:50] <rabi> subzero800: yah
[06:50] <subzero800> rabi: if they are all downloaded to a directory
[06:50] <rabi> subzero800: sudo apt-get install package1 package2 package3
[06:51] <rabi> subzero800: do they depend upon each other?
[06:51] <subzero800> yes
[06:51] <syndr0> would anyone be able to tell me why im having problem with flash on browsers?
[06:52] <syndr0> would having an olde computer make a difference?
[06:52] <syndr0> i mean mine can run flash well it did before
[06:52] <rabi> subzero800: then you install these three package seperately, "sudo dpkg -i package", ignore dependency problem for a while.
[06:52] <syndr0> but now on firefox it cause it to freeze ubuntu
[06:52] <rabi> subzero800: then finally you give a command "sudo apt-get -f install".
[06:52] <syndr0> and on and konqueror loads flash but it doesnt play correctly
[06:53] <rabi> subzero800: it will install these three package and manage dependency.
[06:53] <subzero800> rabi, thanks
[06:53] <chief> can I have kde & gnome, on the same system ? (gnome was installed first)

[07:16] <gwark> my intel wireless chipset recognises and works under 704, but not 710.  does anyone know how to fix this please ?
[07:16] <GOdFAThe1> Does anyone know why a program would tell me there is no hardware acceleration in the terminal when executing the program?
[07:16] <indhu> here im not able to connect the projector, when im connecting it is in black
[07:16] <indhu> so give me an idea over the connection of projector
[07:17] <gwark> fuckit im going back to 704.
[07:17] <mediahunter> can someone please help me get my atheros wifi card to work
[07:17] <slytherin> Is anybody able to install anjuta in gutsy?
[07:17] <pg> indhu: usually the projector cable ends with a jack that is similar to a monitor cable jack.  Plug it in where you would usually plug in a monitor cable into the computer
[07:18] <spongebob> slytherin : i did
[07:18] <rabi> slytherin: sudo apt-get install anjuta. or you can just install it from add/remove programs
[07:18] <pg> indhu: then with some computers you have to push Fn+F7
[07:19] <slytherin> spongebob: Fro official repositories? I am getting error.
 : what error?
[07:19] <slytherin> rabi: Thanks. I know how to install packages. Problem is beyond that point.
[07:19] <slytherin> spongebob: Package anjuta has no installation candidate
[07:20] <aantn> !python
[07:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about python - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:20] <sunogbaga> slytherin: add repositories
[07:20] <netsrot> GOdFAThe1: yes I have installed q3 a few times in linux.
[07:20] <pg> mediahunter: have you checked that it is supported - see the list linked from the Networking & Wireless sectio fo the Ubuntu forums
 :  maybe there's no link for the package fro the repo
[07:20] <Darius08x> Hmm. Sudo apt-get install apache2 didn't work. It was saying could not find package or something. I googled the program made a apt.conf file, and now it says E: syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf:2: Extra junk at end of file.
[07:20] <slytherin> sunogbaga: I have all repositories active.
[07:21] <Darius08x> What exactly am I suppose to put there?
 :  got to the anjuta website and copy their repository address
[07:21] <mediahunter> supported by wht utilites
[07:21] <mediahunter> it is supported by both ndiwrapper and madwifi
[07:21] <mediahunter> i just cna not get it to work
[07:21] <slytherin> spongebob: Yes, I can do that. I was just wondering is this is known bug.
[07:21] <ketrox> Darius08x, you messed your apt.conf
[07:22] <Darius08x> D: ketrox I didn't have a apt.conf before.
[07:22] <Darius08x> unless it's hidden
[07:22] <Darius08x> >.>
 :  no it only happens if the link to package is broken try sudo apt-get update
[07:22] <sunogbaga> slytherin: did you apt-get upgrade?
[07:22] <sunogbaga> i mean update
[07:23] <pg> Darius08x: Which versio of Ubuntu are you using?
[07:23] <nickrud> Darius08x: not hidden, just parted out in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d .   Any ideas?
[07:24] <slytherin> sunogbaga: Found the problem. I had some preferences set in /etc/apt/preferences regards to anjuta. Looks like they got carried from feisty when I was using their repository instead of official repository
[07:24] <pg> Darius08x: then you should not need an apt.conf file.  apache2 is in the repositories.
[07:24] <sunogbaga> spongebob: cge.. pm
[07:25] <Darius08x> pg:  I'm just doing what googled said. I deleted the file now though. It still says reading package lists, bulding tree..reading state info, then goes to say E: couldn't find package apache2
 : you did the dist upgrade from feisty to gutsy?
[07:25] <BobSapp> this is strange, normally ubuntu says it cant find the nvidia kernel driver, but when i boot into rescue mode it can startx?
[07:26] <pg> mediahunter: do you have madwifi module loaded and ndiswrapper unloaded?
[07:26] <slytherin> spongebob: Yes, I did
 : the anjuta website has an info and there's is a particular file you need to delete as it is no longer needed check their website for more info
[07:26] <nickrud> Darius08x: applications->add/remove, preferences button, make sure all the sources are ticked. Then, close, close, and try the install again
[07:27] <mediahunter> nither
[07:27] <mediahunter> i was trying the acer-apci
[07:27] <mediahunter> acer-acpi
[07:27] <mediahunter> i mean
[07:27] <mediahunter> it does not seem to work or i can not fig it out
[07:27] <GOdFAThe1> does anyone know how to install the latest ATI mobility drivers?
[07:27] <slytherin> spongebob: Yes. Solved my problem. Thanks for all the help.
[07:28] <mediahunter> so the next best thing i guess madwifi is beter then ndiswrapper
[07:28] <spongebob> hi does anyone here knows a good .kar and .midi player for ubuntu that supports "channel" editing. I know pykaraoke exists and it's a good one but you can't edit or view the channelds. KMid exists but to tell you guys the truth it's crappy and useless pykaraoke are a lot better but i'm lookin for midi/kar player that supports channel viewing and editing.
[07:28] <parth> hello i wanted to create a custom distro of mine
[07:28] <parth> using gutsy
[07:29] <lazarus_lupine> what do you have in mind?

[07:29] <ketrox> GOdFAThe1, http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide
[07:29] <Darius08x> nickrud: Thank you, that did it. Nothing in there was checked at all
[07:29] <sunogbaga> slytherin: can u search the package using synaptic.., this problem happens if apt cannot find the package
[07:29] <parth> whenever i try to install a package it gives me an error saying
[07:30] <sunogbaga> ooops solved
[07:30] <scottux> helloo
[07:30] <parth> Can not write log, openpty() failed (/dev/pts not mounted?)
[07:30] <spongebob> sunogbaga : slytherin's prob has been resovled... :D

[07:30] <sunogbaga> spongebob: sorry... sorry saw it after i posted

[07:31] <scottux> anyone here familiar with NAS usage under linux?
[07:31] <pg> mediahunter: then install the madwifi-tools package, load the module (I guess "modprobe madwifi" or something) and try again
[07:31] <Darius08x> Ok, I'll look at it some, thank you.
[07:31] <mediahunter> ok
[07:31] <indhu> here im not able to connect the projector, when im connecting it is in black please
[07:31] <mediahunter> i will give it a try
[07:32] <scottux> doesn't anyone know enough about NAS usage enough to want to help me?
[07:32] <scottux> please?
[07:32] <pg> My thinkpad laptop no longer suspends or hybernates since a few days ago.  Here is the relevant part of /var/log/messages: http://pastebin.com/da0447de  .  I suppose some upgrade caused this.  How can I fix it?
[07:33] <thor> scottux no one has any idea what your problem is...so how can we know if we can help?
[07:33] <pg> scottux: what is NAS?
[07:33] <scottux> Network accessable storage
[07:33] <scottux> sorry
[07:33] <Oni-Dracula|lapp> enough with the incest talk, I'm going to bed!
[07:33] <parth>  hello i wanted to create a custom distro of mine using gutsy i used the method suggested on  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization whenever i try to install a package it gives me an error saying Can not write log, openpty() failed (/dev/pts not mounted?)
[07:34] <pg> scottux: describe your problem and if someone knows they will help you
[07:34] <GOdFAThe1> ketrox:  The terminal says I am using software acceleration innstead of hardware after I run those commands, any thoughts?
[07:34] <scottux> anywho, my problem is not at all with using my network accessible storage drive, more with how to figure out what the ip address it is
[07:34] <scottux> from there I think I could figure my own way out of my problems
[07:35] <ketrox> GOdFAThe1, you used  method1 or method2 ?
[07:35] <GOdFAThe1> method1
[07:35] <thor> scottux you can see the ip address of the server by opening a terminal and typing 'ifconfig' at the prompt
[07:35] <thor> scottux but you should really set a static ip address for an NAS server
[07:35] <scottux> such as ifconfig eth0(my ethernet)
[07:35] <ketrox> GOdFAThe1, try the scond the first wont install the lastest drivers
[07:36] <scottux> thor: I don't exactly know how to do so...any pointers?
[07:36] <GOdFAThe1> ok brb
[07:36] <sunogbaga> scottux: ifconfig
[07:36] <pg> scottux: see thor's messages
[07:36] <GOdFAThe1> ketrox: is there a way to get a device listing in linux?
[07:37] <rabi> hello everybody, i am facing problem installing flash.
[07:37] <scottux> so, ifconfig --help and sort it out, or what
[07:37] <ketrox> GOdFAThe1, lspco lsusb
[07:37] <rabi> is anybody there who can help?
[07:37] <ketrox> GOdFAThe1, lspci lsusb
[07:37] <pg> !justask | rabi
[07:37] <ubotu> rabi: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:38] <pg> My thinkpad laptop no longer suspends or hybernates since a few days ago.  Here is the relevant part of /var/log/messages: http://pastebin.com/da0447de  .  I suppose some upgrade caused this.  How can I fix it?
[07:38] <Noir__> Hey
[07:38] <rabi> pg: I am facing problem installing flash.
[07:38] <GOdFAThe1> ketrox: the device profile says VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M52 [Mobility Radeon X1300]
[07:39] <GOdFAThe1> ketrox:  I wonder why I am getting a MESA issue when trying to run a program?
[07:39] <Noir__> Anyways I can't seem to install 7.10 it tell me "can't display video mode" or something I looked up online and it told me it was a monitor issue
[07:39] <alvin> hi
[07:39] <Noir__> Can anyone confirm the alternative cd will let me install?
[07:39] <ketrox> GOdFAThe1, what gives u fglrxinfo ?
[07:39] <shishio> guys, any idea how can in open and play .exe files??
[07:39] <pg> rabi: can you be a bit more specific?  What flash - a flash player, a flash plugin to mozilla?  Which one?  How are you trying and what is the problem?
[07:40] <GOdFAThe1> ketrox: it says its not installed
[07:40] <pg> shishio: install the wine package
[07:40] <ketrox> GOdFAThe1,  then install using the guide
[07:40] <ketrox> :)
[07:40] <shishio> pg: where can i get wine package
[07:40] <GOdFAThe1> ketrox:  ok brb
[07:40] <Noir__> package manager
[07:40] <rabi> pg: flashplugin-nonfree, when i install it, it downloads flahs.....tar.gz file from server and says md5 checksum error. or something.
[07:40] <ketrox> shishio, sudo apt-get install wine
[07:40] <scottux> ifconfig isn't giving me any useful ip addresses. I have a wireless card (internet connection) and a gigabit ethernet card connected directly to my NAS server
[07:41] <shishio> kk ill try
[07:41] <sunogbaga> scottux: ifconfig.. find the line that says inet addr.
[07:41] <thor> scottux are you running ifconfig on the server?
[07:41] <shishio> ketrox: after installing how do i use this?
[07:42] <sunogbaga> scottux: do this on the remote machine
[07:42] <ketrox> shishio, wine somefile.exe
[07:42] <scottux> inet6 addr has a funky hex code, not a familiar ip address
[07:42] <sunogbaga> shishio: wine config
[07:43] <scottux> sunobaga: the remote machine is a self contained linux based NAS drive. no screen, no ssh, just an ethernet port
[07:43] <sunogbaga> shishio: wine <file.exe>
[07:43] <shishio> ketrox: do i need to locate the file location on that ?
[07:43] <sunogbaga> ow
[07:43] <scottux> *sunogbaga
[07:43] <shishio> sunogbaga: same to u
[07:44] <pg> shishio: from the repositories.  From the system menu, choose System -> Administration -> Synaptic package manager.  Then from the list of packages, find "wine" and install it.
[07:44] <thor> scottux do you have the docs on the drive? There should be a way to address the box to configure it...maybe via a web interface?
[07:44] <pg> rabi: tell me exactly what it says
[07:44] <sunogbaga> shishio: are you running an installer?
[07:44] <scottux> thor: yes, web interface is the usual method, but typically that's accessed via windows machine at address \\mybookworld\
[07:45] <scottux> thor: and I can't manage to get there from linux
[07:45] <rabi> pg: it downloads: the file from server, then says md5 checksum error, flashplugin-nonfree not installed.
[07:45] <shishio> sunogbaga: i am trying to run one of my windows xp programs
[07:45] <GOdFAThe1> ketrox: ok lol I did the flgrxinfo and it reloaded my session lol
[07:45] <sunogbaga> scottux: can you access it using windows box? via web interface?
[07:46] <sunogbaga> shishio: i suggest you install it first using wine
[07:46] <Player> What DNS server software is recommended for someone with simple needs on Ubuntu 7.10?
[07:46] <thor> scottux if that is what you are using in windows it should work in linux...assuming you are on the same network
[07:46] <lazarus_lupine> rabi, have you tried apt-get remove --purge flash-plugin-nonfree and then reinstalling?
[07:46] <scottux> sunogbaga: ultimately if it comes to that, I suppose. I was attempting to leave the awful thing behind completely
[07:46] <sunogbaga> shishio: run wine <installer.exe>
[07:46] <scottux> thor: I am. The same computer even.
[07:46] <thor> scottux if nothing else, you should be able to ping mybookworld and find the address
[07:46] <slytherin> Player: dnsmasq
[07:46] <GOdFAThe1> ketrox: I assume that is what is supposed to happen eh?
[07:46] <rabi> lazarus_lupine: yah i tried it, but not succeed.
[07:46] <Player> slytherin, thanks
[07:46] <shishio> sunogbaga: are you pinoy? can u help me
[07:46] <lazarus_lupine> hmm
[07:46] <scottux> thor: i"ll give that a shot
[07:46] <owen1> I am trying to connect to my ubuntu via vnc viewer (Preferences->Remote Desktop). I get "connection refused". any ideas?
[07:47] <sunogbaga> shishio: yes
[07:47] <shishio> sunogbaga: hay salamat
[07:47] <sunogbaga> shishio: pm me
[07:47] <scottux> thor: simply "ping mybookworld" in terminal?
[07:47] <thor> owen1 did you set a vnc password (vncpasswd)
[07:48] <eggroll> Hello
[07:48] <shishio> sunogbaga: hmm... are you still there
[07:48] <owen1> thor: yes, but got the same error (in the vnc, i only have field for ip. where do u enter this password?)
[07:48] <scottux> hello eggroll
[07:48] <thor> scottux  right....it should return the ip address
[07:48] <rabi> is there any method to install manually Adobe Flash Player?
[07:49] <scottux> unfortunately it returns: "unknown host mybookworld"
[07:49] <sunogbaga> scottux: should your device supposedly has a default ip when connecting to a network?? (just a guess)
[07:49] <shishio> rabi: i got the same problem too
[07:49] <thor> owen1 you will be prompted for the password when you connect
[07:49] <sunogbaga> shishio: yes i am
[07:49] <shishio> sunogbaga: reply ka naman pm ko
[07:49] <sunogbaga> shishio: what software are u using?
[07:49] <owen1> thor: I get "connection refused" immediately.
[07:49] <spongebob> hi does anyone here knows a good .kar and .midi player for ubuntu that supports "channel" editing. I know pykaraoke exists and it's a good one but you can't edit or view the channelds. KMid exists but to tell you guys the truth it's crappy and useless pykaraoke are a lot better but i'm lookin for midi/kar player that supports channel viewing and editing.
[07:49] <sunogbaga> shishio: registered ka ba? i can't receive you p
[07:49] <owen1> thor: (with or without password)
[07:49] <scottux> sunogbaga: supposedly, yes.
[07:50] <shishio> sunogbaga: im non registered...
[07:50] <rabi> can we install flalsh player by converting rpm package into deb package?
[07:50] <thor> owen1, are you running the vncserver on the ubuntu computer, and are you using the right ip address
[07:50] <owen1> thor: maybe i need to add a port?
[07:50] <thor> owen1 and do you have 590x open to the ubuntu box
[07:50] <owen1> thor: i went to preferences->remote desktop. is it enough?
[07:50] <thor> owen1 if you are using :1 for the server you need port 5901 open
[07:50] <sunogbaga> shishio: wat software are you trying to run?
[07:51] <pg> rabi: the deb package jsut downloads the file from Adobe and installs it.  The message you got was that the file was not downloaded correctly.
 : actually you can just copy the xpi and other .so to mozilla plugins dir
[07:51] <Noir56> Whats faster ndiswrapper or the built in drivers in the kernel?
[07:51] <sunogbaga> scottux: but?
[07:51] <shishio> sunogbaga: im trying to run Silkroad online on ubuntu
[07:51] <owen1> thor: i didn't understand your last comment...if i am using what>
[07:51] <owen1> thor: ?
[07:51] <rabi> spongebob: can't we install from rpm package, i.e. in adobe site?
[07:52] <thor> owen1 how did you start the vncserver in ubuntu?
[07:52] <scottux> well, I don't exactly know what that address is
[07:52] <sunogbaga> shishio: install silkroad first using wine.. wine <installer.exe>
[07:52] <grindcore> http://www.trosch.org/lif/cannibalism.html   this is bad. they dont know what they want to eat
[07:52] <scottux> sunogbaga i don't have a clue what it is
 : you can't ... you have to convert rpm to deb try sudo alien --script yourplayer.rpm
[07:52] <owen1> thor: preferences->remote desktop. i checked a few checkboxes
[07:52] <owen1> thor: am i missing something?
[07:52] <scottux> sunogbaga and thor: I'm trying to figure out what the default might be.
[07:52] <shishio> sunogbaga: okey
[07:52] <thor> owen1 in a terminal type 'ps ax | grep vnc' and see if vnc is running
[07:52] <sunogbaga> scottux: the manufacturer should have docs for this
[07:52] <owen1> thor: ok, 1 sec
[07:53] <pg> rabi: an rpm package would probably do the same thing, though I'm not sure.  You can download the installation file yourself from Adobe and install it, but then you have to remember that it is installed, where it is installed and what version it is/
[07:53] <shishio> sunogbaga: u have a YM>? can i pm u in YM>? OMG thanks i finaly seen pinoy on ubuntu
[07:53] <sunogbaga> shishio: erwin003
[07:53] <rabi> spogebob: yah i will convert it to deb
[07:53] <scottux> sunogbaga: they do, but I swear they're the worst docs you could possibly ask for
[07:53] <owen1> thor: yes.

[08:09] <shishio> rabi: i have done extracting it
[08:10] <rabi> shishio: then point to extracted folder from terminal.
[08:11] <zewb> hey
[08:11] <zewb> how do you get a mouse cursor in the command line
[08:11] <zewb> i forgot what you need to do it
[08:11] <mediahunter> anyone have any thoughts on geubuntu
[08:11] <mediahunter> or linuxMint
[08:12] <zewb> im using arch
[08:12] <zewb> you don't really learn a lot about linux using ubuntu
[08:12] <shishio> rabi: point extracted folder? like how?
[08:12] <zewb> but yeah
[08:12] <rabi> shishio: do you have extracted it in desktop?
[08:12] <zewb> does anyone know how to get a mouse cursor in the command line?
[08:13] <shishio> rabi: yes; how can i point the extracted folder to the desktop
[08:14] <rabi> shishio: if it is in desktop, then go to terminal and type "cd /Desktop/install_flashplayer_9_linux/"
[08:14] <slytherin> Player: In that case you will need another DNS. Sorry I misunderstood your requirement
[08:14] <mediahunter> can anyone tell me how good LinuxMint or GeUbuntu are
[08:15] <slytherin> mediahunter: What is GeUbuntu?
[08:15] <mediahunter> it is a distro of Linux that is compiled of of Ubuntu using Enligtment for the Desktop evirment
[08:15] <mediahunter> and gnome
[08:15] <mediahunter> mixed
[08:15] <shishio> rabi: done then what?
[08:16] <zewb> anyone know how to get a mouse cursor
[08:16] <mediahunter> i really wish i can get dreamlinux to work but i can not fig out the partion part
[08:16] <mediahunter> not to user friendly on the install
[08:17] <rabi> then type the command $ sudo ./flashplayer-installer
[08:17] <pg> My thinkpad laptop no longer suspends or hybernates since a few days ago.  Here is the relevant part of /var/log/messages: http://pastebin.com/da0447de  .  I suppose some upgrade caused this.  How can I fix it?
[08:17] <rabi> shishio: then type the command $ sudo ./flashplayer-installer
[08:18] <bullgard4> zewb: Ubuntu provides a mouse cursor automatically. If it is not provided on your system, consult the dmesg messages for relvant errors.
[08:18] <bullgard4> relevant
[08:18] <zewb> ok
[08:18] <zewb> im not using ubuntu
[08:18] <AgentHeX> anyone know where the config option is to see "shutdown" and "restart" in the "Quit..." section of the "System" menu?
[08:19] <pg> !anyone | AgentHex
[08:19] <ubotu> AgentHex: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:20] <AgentHeX> i used to see them, but now I don't.  both suspend and hibernation don't work, and luckily i have shutdown mapped to my power button or i would be bringing up the console and typing sudo /sbin/shutdown or reboot
[08:20] <AgentHeX> pg: that WAS my question
[08:20] <zeay> help witrh sound card
[08:20] <slytherin> AgentHeX: you should see them by default. What did you change to make them invisible?
[08:20] <shishio> rabi:sudo: ./flashplayer-installer: command not found
[08:21] <slytherin> zeay: State your question
[08:21] <bullgard4> AgentHeX: Normally, they are to be seen there in the lower right. If not so on your system, then there is an error. Try to find an error in kern.log.
[08:21] <slytherin> shishio: Are you trying to install flashplugin?
[08:21] <zeay> cannot detect my sound card but if i type lspci it states ali corp m5455
[08:21] <AgentHeX> slytherin: i don't know.  i don't remember changing any setting that have to do with that.  i've been fiddling with my power options panel, but i never saw an option for that, and i've looked there.
[08:21] <shishio> slytherin:yes
[08:21] <RantingHuman> hey zewb, pop by the FR channel sometime, will ya ;)
[08:21] <rabi> shishio: don't sudo: ./flashplayer-installer, only sudo ./flashplayer-installer
[08:22] <slytherin> shishio: Why not install flashplugin-nonfree from repositories?
[08:22] <AgentHeX> it's just when i hit System->Quit..., i don't see options for restart or shutdown.  i have log out, lock, suspend, hibernate, and one more i can't remember, but i can't see shutdown or restart
[08:22] <bullgard4> "detlef@MD97600:~$ s2ram; bash: s2ram: command not found" although the uswsusp package is installed. Why does Gutsy provide no program package which includes s2ram?
[08:22] <shishio> rabi: command not found
[08:22] <AgentHeX> slytherin: we've been experiencing problems from adobe's nonfree plugin.  there was an old version floating around here recently, lemme check my chat logs and i'll see if i can find it
[08:23] <GOdFAThe1> Does anyone know the command string to rename a file?
[08:23] <pg> AgentHex: I've never seen syspend or hybernate under the system menu.  They always appear under the power applet, thought.  You can make that appear in your panel from System -> Preferences -> Power options -> General
[08:23] <bullgard4> GOdFAThe1: mv
[08:23] <rabi> shishio: ohhh. can you go to the extracted folder?
[08:23] <shishio> rabi: ok
[08:23] <rabi> just go there.
[08:23] <owen1> when running vncserver :1   I get this in the log: Fatal server error:
[08:23] <owen1> could not open default font 'fixed'
[08:24] <rabi> shishio: from commandline.
[08:24] <slytherin> zeay: Can you paste output of lspci somewhere?
[08:24] <shishio> rabi: done: from commandline?
[08:24] <GOdFAThe1> bullgard4: would it be like sudo mv /file.zip /file.exe ??

[08:24] <pg> My thinkpad laptop no longer suspends or hybernates since a few days ago.  Here is the relevant part of /var/log/messages: http://pastebin.com/da0447de  .  I suppose some upgrade caused this.  How can I fix it?
[08:25] <zeay> cant, im running xp. i cant go to this channel if i use ubuntu
[08:25] <AgentHeX> drop that in /var/cache and run "sudo aptitude reinstall flashplugin-nonfree"
[08:25] <eNons3nse> Can someone please help me set up a Static IP?
[08:25] <bullgard4> GOdFAThe1: Yes, in general. But your particular example might not be a good idea, depending on the circumstances.
[08:25] <slytherin> zeay: Can you access internet from Ubuntu?
[08:25] <owen1> when running vncserver :1  I get "fonts error"   any ideas?
[08:25] <zeay> yup
[08:25] <slytherin> eNons3nse: What is there to help?
[08:26] <AgentHeX> eNons3nse: you should have a network icon in the top right.  click that and manually configure.
[08:26] <slytherin> zeay: Then copy output of lspci command and paste it at pastebin.com
[08:26] <owen1> how do i run vnc server on ubuntu?
[08:26] <AgentHeX> !vncd
[08:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vncd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:26] <AgentHeX> meh
[08:26] <eNons3nse> slytherin: I found a guide to tell how to do it and it seems easy enough.  I don't know how you know what values to enter into the various fields though.
[08:26] <zeay> ok il try. tnx in advance

[08:27] <eNons3nse> slytherin: port forwarding
[08:27] <bullgard4> GOdFAThe1: yes
[08:27] <GOdFAThe1> bullgard4: Thank you, you wouldnt happen to know much about hardware acceleration would you?
[08:28] <AgentHeX> !vnc4server

[08:28] <AgentHeX> well, it's in the repository...  :(
[08:28] <Shinici> hai
[08:28] <slytherin> eNons3nse: Not sure how it is supposed to be working at your end. So can't help much. May be you should ask your service provider
[08:28] <AgentHeX> owen1: check Synaptic for vncserver

[08:30] <AgentHeX> *whiffs*
[08:30] <CyberMad> do you mean choose Visual Effects ? then choose Normal or Extra ?
[08:30] <owen1> AgentHeX: i installed it from the command line. when I run vncserver :1 i get this error: Fatal server error:

[08:30] <AgentHeX> FluxD: you wanna be my sidekick?  we can fight crime?
[08:30] <FluxD> AgentHeX: fo sure!

[08:31] <slytherin> CyberMad: right
[08:31] <ahoj> morning guys. Got a big problem. After an accidental hard shutdown, my ubuntu won't boot, it crashes to BusyBox. Any help available?
[08:31] <FluxD> CyberMad: normal is not to fancy extra is really fancy
[08:31] <CyberMad> slytherin use Extra ?
[08:31] <CyberMad> oh
[08:31] <eNons3nse> AgentHeX: I'm at the static IP configure screen.  how do i know what to put in for IP, Mask & Gateway
[08:31] <CyberMad> ok thanks..
[08:31] <FluxD> CyberMad: if u install ccsm there is another option u will see
[08:31] <AgentHeX> owen1: iono. it appears that vncserver has a ton of dependencies.  did it download a poopload of stuff?
[08:32] <owen1> AgentHeX: no. it's amazing. why is it so hard to connect remotely to Ubuntu machine????
[08:32] <ahoj> is there any possibility of booting the original ubuntu?
[08:32] <owen1> AgentHeX: it's not user friendly..
[08:32] <slytherin> CyberMad: Try normal first.
[08:33] <CyberMad> hmm.. after choosing Extra, i got "Desktop effects could not be enabled" :(  ?
[08:33] <lht> Hi all. How do I check my graphics type version details etc ?
[08:33] <changer_> ...
[08:33] <CyberMad> FluxD apt-get install ccsm ?
[08:33] <FluxD> !ccsm | CyberMad
[08:33] <ubotu> CyberMad: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion
[08:34] <AgentHeX> eNons3nse: you probably want some IP on your local network.  i.e. 192.168.0.x where the subnet mask is typically <IP_ADDRESS> for class C networks (i.e. 99% of home networks) and the gateway is your router's IP address (where the port is being forwarded from)
[08:34] <ahoj> any help with this busybox stuff?
[08:34] <AgentHeX> owen1: did you try looking at system->preferences->remote desktop?
[08:34] <FluxD> CyberMad: then u dont have compiz support
[08:35] <CyberMad> FluxD how to enable it?
[08:35] <AgentHeX> owen1: if all you wanted was console access, look into sshd
[08:35] <AgentHeX> !sshd
[08:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sshd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:35] <FluxD> CyberMad: what card?
[08:35] <AgentHeX> BAH!  what kind of helper bot is this?
[08:35] <AgentHeX> !ssh
[08:35] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[08:36] <Gropi> Who could I talk to if something in the bug process got totally stuck and affects a lot of people?
[08:36] <CyberMad> i use ATi Radeon 64 MB
[08:36] <ahoj> !busybox
[08:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about busybox - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:36] <ahoj> just trying...
[08:36] <FluxD> CyberMad: need model #
[08:36] <AgentHeX> Gropi: launchpad.net ?
[08:37] <Gropi> AgentHeX: The is reported on launchpad for various releases but is being ignored. Basically most Samsung Laptops are not usable with Ubuntu.
[08:37] <CyberMad> I see on Device Manager, Radeon 9200 SE
[08:37] <Gropi> bug
[08:38] <CyberMad> RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE]
[08:38] <AgentHeX> Gropi: not sure about bugtracker etiquette, but i'd probably create a login and subscribe to the bug (if not post your problem on the bug's page).  it will be assessed eventually.
[08:38] <FluxD> CyberMad: my radeon 9200 works but not sure what that SE is
[08:39] <AgentHeX> SE is the low-end edition of the card
[08:39] <CyberMad> does compiz automatically installed and active when install ubuntu 7.10 ?
[08:39] <Gropi> AgentHeX: Of course. I all did this. Others did too. But the bug is not processed. The bug fixing process seems to be totally broken from my point of view. Whom can I talk to?
[08:39] <AgentHeX> CyberMad: no.  you have to enable extra effects once the restricted driver is installed
[08:40] <CyberMad> AgentHeX how to enable it?
[08:40] <AgentHeX> Gropi: don't know.  what's the link to the bug?
[08:40] <pg> My thinkpad laptop no longer suspends or hybernates since a few days ago.  Here is the relevant part of /var/log/messages: http://pastebin.com/da0447de  .  I suppose some upgrade caused this.  How can I fix it?

[08:40] <AgentHeX> Gropi: can you get a terminal?
[08:41] <Jockeo> I downloaded a gdm login manager theme from art.gnome.org and installed it into ubuntu using gdmsetup. However the theme doesn't show up in the list of themes. I get the following terminal output when installing: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47192/ If I try to install it again, it sais that the theme is already installed. Any ideas about what's wrong?
[08:41] <xeer> so i've heard of the 'split' command, but how would i join it back
[08:42] <xeer> i have a file that's a little bit too big for my cd, and i'd like to take it into parts
[08:42] <Gropi> AgentHeX: there is a workaround described, that works. But it won't be easy enough for ordinary users. And the bug is still present in Hardy.
[08:42] <AgentHeX> sudo vi /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:42] <AgentHeX> try adding acpi=off to the module line including your kernel near the bottom of the file.
[08:43] <AgentHeX> Gropi: judging by the inference that this is an ACPI issue, i would try disabling it and see if that helps.  i'm not a dev, just trying to offer a solution.

[08:44] <peacepipejv> hey, i get "composite extention not available" when I try to enable my desktop effects.
[08:44] <AgentHeX> peacepipejv: what videocard do you have?
[08:45] <xeer> anyone? .. know how to split a file, and rejoin it?
[08:45] <Gropi> AgentHeX: I am not trying to get the bug fixed for me but for others. And it seems there is no process. I get the impression that the ubuntu bug fixing model is broken. The importance is still "undecided" which means they haven't even looked at it after months!
[08:45] <Gropi> progress
[08:46] <pg> xeer: use the split command and the cat command?
