[07:23] <pdxkid> the hostRAId part is proprietary..
[07:23] <billy> eck:  oh.  I was thinking of the possibility of Feisty running faster, perhaps.  Honestly, though, I've worked hard getting Edgy all nice and functional, so I should hold off on Feisty, I think.
[07:24] <tallman> good morning
[07:24] <billy> Mornin tallman.
[07:24] <Geadin> ah crap it's morning.
[07:24] <eck> billy: it might run faster, not from changes in the kernel though
[07:24] <billy> eck:  ooooooh.  don't tell me that!  :D
[07:25] <tallman> billy, you're also from europe?
[07:25] <eck> there's a good chance that the applications have been improved in the meantime though :-)
[07:25] <billy> tallmen:  no.  I hail from Sirius Prime.
[07:25] <pdxkid> i have tackled google pretty hard - it seems the only way to get the module is install and old version of RH ... maybe someone out there has this module already?
[07:25] <tombow> is there a magical command I can run to fix a broken software index? the network went down yesterday when I was upgrading dapper to edgy. apt-get install -f isn't working
[07:25] <hayden_> how can i mount a disk image to a directory?
[07:25] <intelikey> confirmed --exclude=   is broken.
[07:26] <billy> eck:  I guess I could always put it on another partition and check it out.  :)
[07:26] <intelikey> someone file a bug on tar
[07:26] <mirra> hey everyone
[07:26] <tallman> hayden_, what is the image?
[07:26] <billy> Hi mirra.
[07:26] <mirra> i got a few simple questions - is it alright if I ask?
[07:26] <l90bpm> hello
[07:26] <tallman> hey mirra
[07:26] <mirra> my first time here
[07:26] <billy> Mirra: of course.  What can we help you with?
[07:26] <l90bpm> my third..
[07:26] <l90bpm> maybe 4th
[07:27] <mirra> well first off, what exactly do I have to add in iptables to allow name servers to resolve?
[07:27] <Plamo> Okay, when booting from the live CD, I get to the point with the orange-ish loading bar, and then Ubuntu freezes, or something, it stops at about 95% of the bar full. Anyone know whats going on?
[07:27] <tallman> billy, Sirius Prime ? USA?
[07:27] <mirra> i tried just allowing all traffic from my name servers but they change..and that doesnt even work now...
[07:27] <tallman> !resolve
[07:27] <bullgard4> hayden_: You can only mount a file system
[07:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about resolve - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:27] <eck> intelikey: it works for me
[07:28] <eck> are you sure you're using it correctly?
[07:28] <hayden_> bullgard4, can't mount an iso created from a cd?
[07:28] <Plamo> !worksforme
[07:28] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[07:28] <Plamo> :D
[07:28] <intelikey> eck on dapper it is broken.
[07:28] <mirra> does anyone else know about name servers and iptables that can help?
[07:28] <tallman> hayden_, you can
[07:28] <intelikey> i have ran about 8 tests now and they all fail.
[07:28] <tallman> man mount
[07:28] <bullgard4> hayden_: if it is a file. Then yes, otherwise no.
[07:29] <l90bpm> I installed from 6.06..  updated.. seems fine thus far
[07:29] <intelikey> changing syntax and order of options.   it will NOT exclude a /dir/ or /path/*
[07:29] <hayden_> bullgard4, tallman well how do i mount that file
[07:30] <mirra> anyone here good with apache2 ? have two simple questions..
[07:30] <tallman> !man | hayden_
[07:30] <ubotu> hayden_: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[07:30] <bullgard4> hayden_: read first 'man mount'. Then put a more detailed question here.
[07:30] <billy> tallman:  Follow the imaginary line created by Orion's Belt to the left, the brightest star in Canis Major.
[07:30] <Plamo> 666 threads in News and Announcements.
[07:31] <tallman> billy, you alien, or sth ?)))
[07:31] <mirra> how can I use htaccess to redirect all traffic within a specific directory to a certain page
[07:31] <mirra> example..someone goes to myurl.com/certaindirectory/thing.php and they get redirected to .../certaindirectory/index.php
[07:32] <tallman> mirra, if I knew that I would be here =)
[07:32] <billy> tallman:  I've lived on earth all my life, but I know I'm from Sirius Prime.  The voices confirm this daily.  8D
[07:32] <mirra> what?
[07:32] <eck> mirra: you need a Redirect
[07:32] <eck> look at the apache docs
[07:33] <mirra> i know..i couldn't figure it out
[07:33] <eck> there are different kinds of them, so you need to figure out which one you want
[07:33] <mirra> alright..i'll look more
[07:33] <tallman> billy, what are those voices?
[07:33] <billy> tallmen:  my Masters.
[07:34] <l90bpm> just stopped in to see what was happening..   you all have a good one
[07:34] <jrandolph> !ati
[07:34] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:34] <mirra> where should the entire servers htaccess to moved to for better performance (know it was httpd.conf for apache, its different with apache2 right?)
[07:34] <l90bpm> hey wait
[07:34] <tallman> !envy
[07:34] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[07:34] <eck> mirra: put it in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
[07:34] <Pepper> !ping
[07:34] <ubotu> pong
[07:34] <mirra> it doesnt work
[07:34] <l90bpm> I do have a question about that..  does nividia have a linux display manager?
[07:34] <Pepper> heh
[07:34] <eck> well, it depends on the distro
[07:34] <eck> but that will work in ubuntu
[07:34] <l90bpm> nvidia*
[07:34] <mirra> i have mod_rewrite..and it screws up
[07:35] <mirra> clean_urls enabled for a drupal site
[07:35] <mirra> it also doesn't block the user-agents I have listed
[07:35] <l90bpm> so I can cast to tv and (fine tune)
[07:35] <tallman> billy, and who are your masters?
[07:35] <hayden_> bullgard4, tallman thanks -,-
[07:35] <eck> mirra: have you tried #apache?
[07:35] <tallman> hayden_, you're welcome
[07:36] <mirra> i will now..i dont really use irc at all
[07:36] <bullgard4> !ping | bullgard4
[07:37] <eck> intelikey: which ubuntu release?
[07:37] <eck> dapper?
[07:37] <intelikey> 6.6
[07:37] <intelikey> yes
[07:37] <lisapc> whats the diff between /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java and /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java?
[07:37] <eck> uh, i think you need to edit /etc/inittab to stop the gettys from spawning
[07:37] <eck> it is different in edgy though, since upstart deprecated inittab
[07:37] <intelikey> eck yes there is no getty running on them.
[07:38] <eck> and they are still activated?
[07:38] <intelikey> eck have also edited /etc/init.d/console-screen.sh.    yes
[07:38] <eck> weird
[07:38] <zarul> ok great
[07:38] <intelikey> that's what i though.
[07:38] <eck> haha
[07:38] <lisapc> i get this error all of a sudden whe runing azureus:  No SSL provider available.  Whats that mean?
[07:38] <zarul> where to get the mss2 codec?
[07:39] <intelikey> so eck got any thoughts on   #2. ?
[07:39] <eck> what is the grub issue?
[07:39] <intelikey> no partitions
[07:39] <intelikey> :)
[07:39] <eck> you have no partitions?
[07:39] <intelikey> exactly
[07:39] <l90bpm> play anything ---->  http://www.ehomeupgrade.com/entry/2663/how-to_get_full
[07:40] <eck> well if you happen to be using FAT you can use syslinux, probably doesn't apply
[07:40] <zarul> l90bpm,  seen that...
[07:40] <l90bpm> 3 easy steps
[07:40] <eck> intelikey: did you try manually mapping the drive device node in the grub shell? i guess that mjight work
[07:40] <l90bpm> it fixed my problem the other night
[07:41] <intelikey> eck i'll let you walk me through it if you like...
[07:41] <l90bpm> may not want some of the extras though.. like skype
[07:41] <mikefoo> ok so I just installed lm_sensors, ran sensors, and it says "no sensors found" this happens on two different servers. Anyone have an idea if I am missing something?
[07:41] <intelikey> eck  grub --no-floppy   ?
[07:41] <linux_user400354> im logged into a machine through ssh. i have an app running. how can i use screen so that when i logout, the app is still running?
[07:41] <even> hellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllpppppp
[07:41] <l90bpm> lol
[07:42] <even> I have a very big problem witch apache2
[07:42] <eck> intelikey: is there a grub error when you boot up?
[07:42] <even> about htdocs
[07:42] <intelikey> eck can't be.  grub has never been installed.
[07:42] <even> somebody can help me ?
[07:42] <eck> intelikey: yeah, go to the grub shell
[07:42] <intelikey> k there
[07:43] <zarul> l90bpm,  I will look and see, but I guess most if not all of  them already on my machine
[07:43] <tombow> is there a command to find out what version of ubuntu I'm running?
[07:43] <tallman> !ask | even
[07:43] <ubotu> even: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:43] <eck> try just running root (hd0) or whatever, and then the setup command
[07:43] <l90bpm> @ even, I'm sure sombody will
[07:43] <even> I can't create a folder in htdocs
[07:43] <intelikey> grub> root (hd0)
[07:43] <intelikey>  Filesystem type unknown, using whole disk
[07:43] <even> beacause acess restriction
[07:43] <user1> exit
[07:44] <tallman> even, what about sudo su ?
[07:44] <eck> hmm.... remove the stage 1.5 stuff from /boot/grub and run it again and see if grub is actually putting them in the right place
[07:44] <l90bpm> zarul, what did you say you was trying to play again?
[07:44] <eck> if it is it might work
[07:44] <even> htdocs
[07:44] <intelikey> k
[07:44] <tombow> so is there a command to find out what version of ubuntu I'm running?
[07:45] <even> I want to create a folder in htdocs but I can
[07:45] <zarul> wmv that requires mss2 codec
[07:45] <eck> tombow: cat /etc/lsb-release
[07:45] <lisapc> what java should I be using?  it seeems I have 3 versions installed.
[07:45] <even> beacause it is lock
[07:45] <tombow> eck: thanks, looks like my upgrade succeeded
[07:45] <intelikey> eck ok now what ?
[07:45] <tallman> mikefoo, you can try searching on ubuntuforums.org
[07:45] <even> I have already us chmos but nothing .. snifff
[07:45] <eck> intelikey: when you run the setup command it should put grub on the mbr, after that you have to hope it works
[07:45] <l90bpm> haven't tried to play a wmv yet, so I can't answer that one.. wish I could
[07:46] <intelikey> setup ?
[07:46] <tallman> even, what about chmode ?
[07:46] <intelikey> setup (hd0) ?
[07:46] <eck> i have never put grub on a disk where i put the FS on the whole device though, not sure if it will work
[07:46] <l90bpm> VLC won't play it?
[07:46] <tombow> does ubuntu generally have problems with opterons?
[07:46] <eck> yeah
[07:46] <intelikey> Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
[07:46] <zarul> vlc, only the audio
[07:47] <eck> intelikey: you are probably out of luck. why can't you partition the drive?

[07:49] <chalmer> matt:ok
[07:49] <Lgndryhr> i have a few questions about booting and restarting......i recently upgraded to 6.10 from 6.06 and didnt have these problems
[07:49] <l90bpm> killer..  glad somebody is coming around  (dell) figures it would be them
[07:49] <arfy> hi all. Well after configuring and compiling the latest alsa drivers, I successfully have an audigy 2 zs working, after alsaconf. However, when the system is rebooted it appears the audigy isn't ven loaded, and the sounds return to the internal card. Any suggestions here?.
[07:50] <eck> intelikey: what filesystem? i have never heard of anyone not partitioning except with fat and iso
[07:50] <mattyv> chalmer: is it usb or oci wireless card
[07:50] <zarul> l90bpm, no worries, everyone is a n00b...nobody knows everything till they die
[07:50] <mattyv> *pci
[07:50] <intelikey> eck ext2
[07:50] <eck> hmm, i am surprised it will do that
[07:50] <intelikey> you can have any fs that will support the size of the disk...
[07:50] <l90bpm> so very true
[07:51] <ohana> can someone please help me out with installing ubuntu? every time i try, just before it loads the screen goes blank
[07:51] <eck> i thought it would check to make sure you are putting it on a partition
[07:51] <eck> i guess not
[07:51] <chalmer> matt: pci
[07:51] <ohana> then ive got no keyboard/mouse access
[07:51] <ohana> all i can do is reboot :(
[07:51] <intelikey> eck thought what would ?
[07:51] <eck> mkfs
[07:51] <ohana> any ideas people? muchly appreciated
[07:51] <l90bpm> bet that will knock a couple hundred of the selling price of those dells
[07:51] <intelikey> nah
[07:51] <mattyv> chalmer: ok, try lspci and look for what sort of card it is (chipset)
[07:51] <billy> ohana:  more than likely your xserver is misconfigured.
[07:52] <ohana> billy: i dont understand. im booting from the cd. how am i supposed to configure it even before installing?
[07:52] <chalmer> i got it activated and put n mt SSID and key
[07:52] <l90bpm> your probably right, just a way for them to make a proffit w/o sharing w/ microsuck

[07:52] <l90bpm> http://www.ehomeupgrade.com/entry/2663/how-to_get_full
[07:52] <arfy> where is disk manager located? I looked under system, administration as suggested by the users guide, but can't see it.
[07:52] <mattyv> chamler: did you enter anything for the DNS server addresses?
[07:52] <billy> ohana:  there's a video mode option in the boot menu when you first start it up.
[07:53] <Schalken> does anyone have the md5sum of the ubuntu 6.06 (not 6.06.1) iso?
[07:53] <ohana> billy: ive tried setting that to 1024x768 32 and same thing happens
[07:53] <mattyv> chalmer: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[07:53] <intelikey> ohana assuming sufficient ram. (196m+) i'd guess you need to hit [ctrl] +[alt] +[f1]   and run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:54] <Lgndryhr> i have a few questions about booting and restarting......i recently upgraded to 6.10 from 6.06 and didnt have these problems before

[07:55] <kaushal> Hi
[07:55] <chalmer> matt
[07:55] <mattyv> chalmer: ok atheros cards should work, and you have DNS. Can you ping anything?
[07:56] <Lgndryhr> i have a few questions about booting and restarting......i recently upgraded to 6.10 from 6.06 and didnt have these problems
[07:56] <Lgndryhr> when i restart it just hangs there and when i boot it doesnt look the same at all. and i dont mean the graphical look. i mean the text i see
[07:56] <Schalken> Lgndryhr: but it still boots?
[07:56] <Lgndryhr> yea
[07:56] <Lgndryhr> i can turn it off
[07:56] <intelikey> ohana frame buffer is out of sync.   that happens    boot with  vga=normal nosplash     added to the kernel line.   that might get you as far as a console so you can reconfig the xserver
[07:56] <Lgndryhr> and then turn it right back on
[07:56] <ohana> intelikey: to give you a better idea of what happening: just as xserver is about to load, its as if someone has unplugged my monitor/keyb/mouse. its not that my monitor has gone black, but has no signal
[07:56] <Schalken> Lgndryhr: but it wont reboot?
[07:56] <Lgndryhr> yea
[07:56] <l90bpm> mine boots slower after the very same upgrade..  but no problems
[07:56] <Lgndryhr> when i select reboot
[07:57] <Lgndryhr> it go to the text with some numbers in front saying system restarting
[07:57] <Lgndryhr> then it all of a sudden hangs
[07:57] <Lgndryhr> my keyboard is turned off
[07:57] <intelikey> ohana yeah  try that boot line  ^   might help.
[07:57] <Lgndryhr> but my computer stays on
[07:57] <chalmer> i ping google.com and it keeps going ? what am i looking 4
[07:57] <Schalken> Lgndryhr: my friend has the same problem.... never found a fix. not too much trouble to hit the reset button after the system has shut down
[07:57] <l90bpm> strange
[07:57] <Lgndryhr> true
[07:57] <ohana> intelikey: so vga=normal nosplash?
[07:57] <kaushal> I have posted to ubuntuforums
[07:57] <mattyv> chalmer: just looking for a response, press crtl + c to stop it
[07:57] <Lgndryhr> didnt know if there was a fix
[07:58] <Lgndryhr> i figured i shouldnt have upgraded to 6.10
[07:58] <kaushal> for apt-get install
[07:58] <dougb> does grub work if you have vista already installed?
[07:58] <intelikey> ohana yes.    but i make no promices  that it will fix it.   it "might."
[07:58] <Lgndryhr> i should have kept 6.06 lTS
[07:58] <kaushal> no one has replied
[07:58] <Lgndryhr> *LTS
[07:58] <kaushal> :-/
[07:58] <Schalken> does anyone have the md5sum of the ubuntu 6.06 iso?
[07:58] <chalmer> ok now what?
[07:58] <Lgndryhr> also when i boot
[07:58] <Schalken> or know where to get it?
[07:58] <Lgndryhr> i dont see the normal text
[07:58] <whta> i have libdvdread3 installed but I can't play any DVDs (i'm playing from VLC if that matters). what could be the problem?
[07:58] <Lgndryhr> like i did when i would boot in 6.06
[07:58] <Schalken> whta: you also need libdvdcss.
[07:59] <MasseR> Those with boot trouble, make sure apt-get has installed properly to the end
[07:59] <ohana> intelikey: thanks for that. this is probably asking too much, but any ideas on how to reconfigure the xserver once i hit console?
[07:59] <jlgaddis> Schalken: gimme a sec for the md5sum
[07:59] <l90bpm> whta..   just go here..  http://www.ehomeupgrade.com/entry/2663/how-to_get_full  and do exactly what it says
[07:59] <mattyv> chalmer: thinking...
[07:59] <chalmer> mattyv> no what?
[07:59] <Lgndryhr> MasseR: what do you mean
[07:59] <l90bpm> it will take about 7-10 minutes
[07:59] <jlgaddis> Schalken: what's the filename of your iso?
[07:59] <l90bpm> and you won't have this problem
[07:59] <Schalken> jlgaddis: thanks. wait on...i can just do "check cd for defects" on boot instead. lol my bad
[07:59] <chalmer> mattyv>113 packets transmitted, 112 received, 0% packet loss, time 112481ms
[07:59] <intelikey> ohana the xserver on the live CD uses vesa   the splash uses frame buffering  some times the two are incompatable    if that don't help you can try the "alternate" install CD it has the textmode installer.
[08:00] <jlgaddis> Schalken: http://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/linux/ubuntu-releases/6.06/MD5SUMS
[08:00] <chalmer> mattyv> is that what u r wanting to c ?
[08:00] <MasseR> Lgndryhr: Lgndryhr Nevermind I thought I was in #ubuntu+1
[08:00] <intelikey> ohana  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:00] <Lgndryhr> oh k lol
[08:00] <mattyv> chalmer: that shows a response, so yeh it's good
[08:00] <ohana> intelikey: and where can i get the 'alternate' install CD from?
[08:00] <intelikey> that's the command you want in the console ^ ohana
[08:00] <Schalken> jlgaddis: yeah they are of 6.06.1 and not 6.06. nevermind i will just do the check cd for defects.
[08:00] <whta> l90bpm: that just installs xine. will that let me play DVDs from VLC?
[08:01] <intelikey> ohana from the same place you got the live.
[08:01] <jlgaddis> ohana: http://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/linux/ubuntu-releases/6.10/, for one
[08:01] <whta> ahh never mind
[08:01] <mattyv> chalmer: are you going through a proxy by any chance?
[08:01] <chalmer> mattyv> ok
[08:01] <intelikey> !alternate | ohana
[08:01] <ubotu> ohana: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[08:01] <jlgaddis> Schalken: s/6.06/6.06.1/ in that url i pasted then, or run the check
[08:01] <l90bpm> xine?
[08:01] <jlgaddis> Schalken: comparing md5sum's is usually faster though
[08:01] <chalmer> mattyv> whats that?
[08:01] <l90bpm> are you logged in to a user that has privelidges?
[08:02] <mattyv> chalmer: I guess you're probably not
[08:02] <Lgndryhr> is it normal to not see anymore when booting in 6.10 the usual booting system files, etc... with [ok]  directly horizontal from the item on the right side like i would in 6.06 when i would boot........i now see something about swap file and loading and then it loads

[08:02] <idiot_> i'm having some trouble getting an initial xterm to pop up when logging into X.  running ubuntu and gdm...
[08:02] <Lgndryhr> it does load faster i noticed though
[08:02] <intelikey> i'm gone for a while. later folks.
[08:02] <ohana> intelikey: ok, so once i use that command in console, what will that do? or is there something else i need to do once that goes through?
[08:02] <chalmer> mattyv>  lynksys 54 G router
[08:02] <Schalken> jlgaddis: yeah ill just do the check cya
[08:02] <cosmo_> this is going to drive me nuts, I have searched both the ubuntu and kubuntu forum for a soulution and have tried what they suggest but it is still happening, when I boot up into kubuntu both of my moniters come on and show the splash screen, but as soon as I log in the CRT moniter on the DVI output turns off and I cant seem to figure out how to get it working
[08:02] <mattyv> chalmer: did you try cat /etc/resolv.conf ?
[08:03] <Lgndryhr> is it normal to not see anymore when booting in 6.10 the usual booting system files, etc... with [ok]  directly horizontal from the item on the right side like i would in 6.06 when i would boot........i now see something about swap file and loading and then it loads
[08:03] <Lgndryhr> it does load faster i noticed though
[08:03] <cavediver> Hi. Anyone knows if it's possible to activate the new gnome 2.18 controlcenter in Feisty ? I see it uses the old way as a default.
[08:03] <chalmer> mattyv>  with 3 other comp's with windows they run fine
[08:03] <mattyv> chalmer: the fact that you can ping google shows the wireless itself is working fine
[08:03] <wazesz> anyone know how to update my graphic driver? i cant get widescreen for some reason
[08:03] <mattyv> cavediver: edit the menu
[08:04] <chalmer> mattyv>  what that is it a program/ or the terminal
[08:04] <Lgndryhr> wazesz: what kind of gfx card you have?
[08:04] <wyndblade> !envy | Wazesz
[08:04] <ubotu> Wazesz: envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[08:04] <Lgndryhr> nvm they bet me to it
[08:04] <mattyv> chalmer: your router and wireless card should be fine under linux, it's a config problem of some sort...Oh yeah, run it from the terminal, Apps > Accessories > Terminal
[08:04] <Lgndryhr> *beat
[08:05] <cavediver> mattyv: what do you mean? What's the command for the new thingy then ?
[08:05] <wazesz> i have an hp a1640n with a GMA 3000 graphic card running on a i810 driver
[08:05] <l90bpm> I would like to have a display manager for a nvidia 5500 fx so I can fine tune a few settings if anyone knows anything.. let me know..
[08:05] <cavediver> If you mean removing all the stuff and adding the cc.
[08:05] <ohana> jlgaddis: sorry to bother you but intelikey went away, are you able to help me for a moment?
[08:05] <chalmer> what about tha drivers for tha card i have not installed them yet?  mattyv
[08:05] <jlgaddis> ohana: perhaps, what's up?
[08:06] <lisapc> when i ./configure it says: checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X libraries. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!.  Whats the solution?
[08:06] <mattyv> cavediver: Right-click the System menu, and select Edit Menus, you can then add the control centre to Prefs I think. AFAIK you can't use the Contorl Centre by default though. Ask in #ubuntu+1 for more info
[08:06] <chalmer> mattyv>  will that matter?
[08:06] <Lgndryhr> is it normal to not see anymore when booting in 6.10 the usual booting system files, etc... with [ok]  directly horizontal from the item on the right side like i would in 6.06 when i would boot........i now see something about swap file and loading and then it loads
[08:06] <Lgndryhr> it does load faster i noticed though
[08:06] <mattymonkey> anyone know how to do a text only install using the 6.06lts cd they send out?
[08:06] <ohana> jlgaddis: intelikey told me to enter sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, once i hit the console when installing ubuntu. what do i do from there? does that open a file for me to edit or what?
[08:06] <mattyv> chalmer: the drivers are built in already :)
[08:06] <chalmer> mattyv>  will that matter?
[08:06] <chalmer> ok

[08:06] <GuHaSe> anyone know why gmplayer crashes with that msg?
[08:07] <lisapc> how do I install the x development libraries
[08:07] <GuHaSe> gmplayer crashes but mplayer works fine
[08:07] <mattymonkey> anyone know how to do a text only install using the 6.06lts cd they send out? sorry for repeating didnt think anyone saw
[08:07] <wazesz> i dont have an ati or nvidia card..its an intel
[08:07] <jlgaddis> ohana: you'll probably want to use dpkg-reconfigure -p high xserver-xorg, then it'll open up a dialog box and prompt you
[08:07] <l90bpm> wish I did mattmonkey
[08:07] <Lgndryhr> wazesz: so it's integrated?
[08:08] <wazesz> yea
[08:08] <chalmer> mattyv: would i need to do a reboot after the card was installed
[08:08] <eck> lisapc: easiest way might be to apt-get build-dep something that depends on them, there are a lot
[08:08] <eck> lisapc: they are mostly named libX*-dev
[08:08] <tombow> whats my super key if i don't have a windows key on my keyboard?
[08:08] <l90bpm> <--- dumb as a wet rock
[08:08] <ohana> jlgaddis: is it pretty clear what i have to do from there or is there something else that ill need to know?
[08:08] <mattyv> chalmer: I don't have an atheros card so don't know about any problems they might have, don't think I can help you any more. Jump on ubuntuforums.org and have a search, or start a thread and describe that you can ping but not get internet. Reset shouldn't be needed
[08:08] <wazesz> Graphic Media Accelerator 3000
[08:08] <chalmer> mattyv: i guess not if i did'nt need tha driver cd then
[08:08] <lisapc> eck, when I try to ./configure ktorrent, it says: checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X libraries. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!    What can I do?
[08:08] <ohana> jlgaddis: (im relatively new to linux... sorry to be a pain)
[08:08] <Lgndryhr> wazesz: hmm? much about integreated gfx card......i dont think you can upgrade it
[08:09] <jlgaddis> ohana: i dont recall what it asks right offhand.  if you're not sure, you can usually just accept the defaults.  worst case, you can hit ctrl-c to exit out
[08:09] <Lgndryhr> *i dont know much about
[08:09] <eck> lisapc: is ktorrent in universe? if so try apt-get build-dep ktorrent
[08:09] <ohana> jlgaddis: thanks for that, ill give it a try. although  i might be back here in about 20 mins :p
[08:09] <Lgndryhr> also if it doesnt allow widescreen is it b/c ur monitor cant do it
[08:09] <lisapc> eck, i cant as its old.  i got the latest version from website
[08:09] <ohana> jlgaddis: thanks again
[08:09] <eck> lisapc: that's ok, this is just for the libraries
[08:10] <wazesz> my monitor is widescreen
[08:10] <Lgndryhr> oh k
[08:10] <Lgndryhr> was just checking
[08:10] <eck> lisapc: the X11 dependencies and so forth are probably the same
[08:10] <wazesz> i was able to get widescreen on the same monitor but older pc
[08:10] <chalmer> mattyv: yea i got another same card in my windows comp and not 1 problem installing it
[08:10] <Lgndryhr> did u use ubuntu on older pc?
[08:10] <Lgndryhr> and was its gfx integrated
[08:10] <wazesz> no same version
[08:10] <wazesz> gfx wasnt integrated
[08:10] <Lgndryhr> that might be ur problem
[08:11] <wazesz> so ubuntu got problems with integrated gfx?
[08:11] <Lgndryhr> that i dont know
[08:11] <eck> integrated intel is the best :-)
[08:11] <wazesz> lol eck
[08:11] <Lgndryhr> ive only been using ubuntu for about 6 motnhs
[08:11] <Lgndryhr> *months
[08:11] <l90bpm> I downgraded but upgraded my integrated..  lol..  went from a 6100 to a 5500 w/ 256mb..  so yeah.. it made sense in the end
[08:11] <wazesz> i only use for 2 days ^_^
[08:11] <Lgndryhr> lol
[08:12] <Lgndryhr> i can only do a few things but can get around overall just fine
[08:12] <wazesz> the stretch screen is driving me insane
[08:12] <Lgndryhr> i bet
[08:12] <Lgndryhr> hmm u search the forums?
[08:12] <wazesz> yea i tried 915
[08:12] <wazesz> i tried xorg.conf
[08:12] <eck> 915 is intel only
[08:13] <wazesz> its intel integrated gfx
[08:13] <eck> wazesz: then it should work with the right magic
[08:13] <wazesz> but it didnt
[08:13] <tombow> omg upgrading to edgy solely for beryl was soooo worth it
[08:13] <mattyv> chalmer: atheros is the chipset, have a search for issues with that
[08:13] <eck> wazesz: what resolution?
[08:13] <l90bpm> magic.. lol   ain't that the truth
[08:13] <wazesz> all res except none on wide screen mode
[08:14] <wazesz> let me see the 915..i got an error on that
[08:14] <chalmer> mattyv: is there a network setup wizard in ubuntu that i can run?
[08:14] <QRZ> chalmer: If you can get traffic to/from a remote host, then your wireless connection is working!  Look elsewhere if your browser cannot retrieve Websites.
[08:15] <l90bpm> does it say eth0 is already running?
[08:15] <wazesz> i try to set it at 1280x800
[08:15] <l90bpm> had that problem w/ suse..  wanted to break something
[08:15] <l90bpm> try another card
[08:15] <eck> wazesz: i have used this for 1440x900 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10736/
[08:15] <l90bpm> if you have one
[08:15] <eck> three is probably some other magical command for that resolution
[08:15] <mattyv> chalmer: Not so much a wizard, the System > Admin > Networking tool should be all that's required in most cases. You could try a program called Network Manager Gnome, if your card works with it life will become very easy
[08:15] <wazesz> cool thanx eck, i'll check it out
[08:15] <eck> i'm not really sure how 915resolution works
[08:15] <buddha> does sudo aptitude install whatever install the librarys auto.?
[08:16] <mattyv> chalmer: Are you using dhcp?
[08:16] <chalmer> mattyv> yea
[08:16] <eck> maybe if you replace the 1440 and 900 by the numbers for your res?
[08:16] <wazesz> me neither lol..i just follow the direction on forum
[08:17] <chalmer> mattyv: the card works cause i had it n another comp w/ windows
[08:17] <eavawter> I'm trying to get my wireless card to connect through belkin F5D7231-4 and keep getting the message from the firewall on the router "1 blocked by DoS protection.  Anyone know how to fix this problem?
[08:17] <wazesz> oh yea i get that error
[08:17] <wazesz> Intel chipset detected.  However, 915resolution was unable to determine the chipset type.
[08:17] <eck> hm
[08:17] <wazesz> Chipset Id: 29a08086
[08:17] <mattyv> chalmer: Last thing I can think of is to manually put your DNS server addresses in. Did your ISP gives you 2 IP addresses for DNS? If so, go to the Network setup dialog and click on the DNS tab.
[08:18] <l90bpm> well yeah.. w/ windoze..  mine did too.. but my integrated absolutely will not work in linux.. so I have two cards installed.. the on-board.. and the extra
[08:18] <mattyv> chalmer: yeah I'm sure the card works, you wouldn't be able to ping google otherwise
[08:18] <wazesz> maybe i810 driver doesnt support that type of intel gfx
[08:18] <eck> what model is that?
[08:18] <wazesz> GMA 3000
[08:18] <chalmer> mattyv: o ok
[08:18] <Lgndryhr> wazesz try this here ----> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=262236
[08:18] <wazesz> thanx lgndryhr
[08:18] <chalmer> mattyv: it must b ubuntu
[08:18] <eck> eavawter: if you don't have any windows machines on your network, you can just drop the firewall on your router
[08:18] <wazesz> i'll check it out
[08:18] <l90bpm> thats just how I had to do it (the lazy way) got tired of flipping back and forth from static ip's to dhcp etc. nothing ever worked
[08:18] <Lgndryhr>  and here -----> http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p7.html
[08:18] <Cryoniq> eavawter, that is not a problem, DoS stands for Denial of Service, if I place it in the correct environment
[08:19] <eavawter> unfortunately I have xp as well eck
[08:19] <mattyv> chalmer: yeah almost definitely a DNS issue
[08:19] <Cryoniq> eavawter, You really want to deny DoS and what is defined as DoS attacks
[08:19] <mattymonkey> anyone else notice the live cd runs *really*really* slow?
[08:19] <eck> Cryoniq: yes, but the firewall probably thinks the linux computer is trying to attack the network and is dropping it
[08:19] <mattymonkey> like painfully slow i wish i could just install this but i cant even set it up to install cuz its so slow
[08:19] <jlgaddis> chalmer: are there any dns servers listed in /etc/resolv.conf?
[08:20] <Lgndryhr> wazesz -----> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/i915Driver
[08:20] <eavawter> I have no clue what this means ... but I do KNOW that it's me .. on my ubuntu machine trying to get in
[08:20] <l90bpm> well that depends on ram.. and drive speed and cpu..   runs fine on mine.. but not on the old latitude
[08:20] <eck> eavawter: well if it was me i'd drop the router's firewall, it is obviously incompetent. maybe you can run a firewall on the windows machine?
[08:20] <wazesz> thanx for the help guys..i really appreciated it...im going to try one of those methods and restart x
[08:20] <mattymonkey> i dont know why but every comp ive tried it on its as slow as molasses

[08:24] <eavawter> unfortunately I'm not sure how to do that eck

[08:30] <l90bpm> theres my next headache..   setting up all the printers in this house
[08:30] <l90bpm> ouch
[08:30] <ohana> !alternative | ohana
[08:30] <tungarbulb> LGNDRYHR: Everything seems to be properly installed.
[08:30] <eck> l90bpm: i hope the printer supports ipp
[08:30] <Lgndryhr> hmm h/o
[08:31] <l90bpm> what's ipp?
[08:31] <Cryoniq> !ipp
[08:31] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[08:31] <eck> l90bpm: it is the best thing ever. if your printer supports it, all clients need to do is enter the ip of the printer and it is set up
[08:31] <eck> generally you can just use post script, so you don't have to mess with printer drivers or anything like that
[08:31] <ohana> can someone please point out where to get the "alternative" install cd?
[08:31] <eck> works with any operating system :-)
[08:31] <l90bpm> really, I only need the one to work...  HPlaserjet 4..  that all-in-one isn't worth the ink
[08:32] <Lgndryhr> tugnarbulb: when you say it wont play you mean it wont play mp3's or what?
[08:32] <Lgndryhr> lisapc: idk never used that much of ktorrent sorry
[08:32] <eck> l90bpm: nmap -A your printer and see if it is running lpd or ipp
[08:32] <tungarbulb> "Lgndryhr: hmm h/o" - What do you mean?
[08:32] <Lgndryhr> lisapc: i just use it to dl stuff thats it
[08:32] <eck> if so, you might be able to save yourself some trouble
[08:33] <Lgndryhr> h/0 means "hold on"
[08:33] <eck> err, this would have to be a network printer of course
[08:33] <Lgndryhr> *h/o
[08:33] <l90bpm> thanks uboto
[08:33] <Lgndryhr> tugnarbulb: when you say it wont play you mean it wont play mp3's or what?
[08:33] <l90bpm> ubotu*
[08:33] <tungarbulb> It won't even start, period.
[08:33] <Lgndryhr> oh k give me a second
[08:34] <ohana> !alternate
[08:34] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[08:34] <l90bpm> I don't have it hooked up at the moment.. we've been doing a bit of re-arranging
[08:34] <ohana> can someone please give me the link to get the alternate install cd?
[08:34] <tungarbulb> I should say I just upgraded to Edgy a few days ago.
[08:34] <buddha> does sudo aptitude install whatever install the librarys needed to run the program too?
[08:35] <l90bpm> that's a huge printer..  I'll wait to move it..  lol  it's late
[08:35] <Imsdle> Hi, Everyone... I have run out of diskspace after deleting a large number of photos on my computer... and now i cannot log in. two question. how do I delete files/folders in the .Trash folder and two.. isn't there any way I can stop this from happening again?
[08:35] <mattyv> buddha: should do
[08:35] <Lgndryhr> k i am too but my xmms still works hold on a second
[08:35] <l90bpm> bought it at an auction..   $2 bucks.. and it prints like 25 pages a minute or so
[08:36] <l90bpm> way better than that hp 1210v
[08:36] <lisapc> anyone here using ktorrent?
[08:36] <l90bpm> just not in color :C
[08:36] <tungarbulb> I should also say that I installed a few interesting-looking audio programs from the "Add-Remove" function. I've since removed them.
[08:36] <tungarbulb> I hope I didn't hose something.
[08:36] <eck> ohana: it is on the page with the desktop cd
[08:37] <eck> ohana: network printers are the way to go, if you can afford them
[08:37] <eck> oops
[08:37] <eck> not to you, ohana
[08:38] <QRZ> Imsdle: Can you get to a command prompt?
[08:38] <l90bpm> yeah that would be great..  for the laptops
[08:38] <Imsdle> yup.. i can ssh in
[08:38] <l90bpm> as far as the desktop goes..  it don't matter that much 2me
[08:38] <Lgndryhr> tungarbulb: odd i cant think of a reason why
[08:38] <Lgndryhr> all i can say is
[08:38] <Imsdle> i can't delete the folders in the .Trash file.. i have tried the --ignore-fail-on-non-empty
[08:38] <QRZ> Imsdle: Ok then.  You can manually delete all the items in your .Trash dir by doing something like, "rm -f ~/.Trash/*"
[08:39] <H264> quich question: where is the preference file for the clock that displays in the upper right hand of the screen?
[08:39] <H264> *quick
[08:39] <Lgndryhr> make sure everything that was there before is installed and xine is up to date and all lib's are there and uninstall xmms and reinstall (in that order)
[08:39] <H264> I broke 7.04 by changing it from 24 hour to UNIX time
[08:40] <H264> so I am limited to the command lineright now
[08:40] <tungarbulb> I uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Damn, I don't want to erase the HD and reinstall from scratch but I cannot think of what else to do.
[08:40] <eck> H264: you don't like unix time? ;-)
[08:40] <l90bpm> running out of space is no good..  makes a pc act up constantly..   you need to always have a lil space to write to..
[08:40] <H264> don't know
[08:40] <Lgndryhr> let me search real quick
[08:40] <H264> I was going to check it out
[08:41] <H264> but when I chaned it, it flashed several times and then both the top and bottom pannel was gone
[08:41] <H264> leaving me with nothing to click on
[08:41] <Imsdle> nope.. that didn't work
[08:41] <Imsdle> still have all the directories in there
[08:41] <eck> H264: /apps/panel/applets/clock_screen0/prefs/*_time
[08:41] <eck> it is a gconf string
[08:41] <eck> so you have to use gconf-editor or the comand line tool for it
[08:41] <H264> ok
[08:41] <QRZ> Imsdle: Then do it with root privs (use sudo).
[08:42] <Lgndryhr> tungarbulb: put this in terminal "xmms %U"
[08:42] <Lgndryhr> and tell me the outcome
[08:42] <eck> haha, you definitely don't want unix time
[08:42] <tungarbulb> What will that do?
[08:42] <H264> can you post a command to do it?
[08:42] <Imsdle> yeah tried that too
[08:42] <Imsdle> same thing
[08:42] <eck> H264: you have to do it from the command line?
[08:42] <H264> lol, poor us
[08:43] <l90bpm> I'm a recovering "point and clicker" myself
[08:43] <QRZ> Imsdle: But you will need to specify the whole path. (ie: sudo rm -f /home/username/.Trash/*)
[08:43] <Imsdle> rm: cannot remove `/home/melissa/.Trash/rdiff-backup-data': Is a directory
[08:43] <Imsdle> :(
[08:43] <H264> I dont see any other way to do it
[08:43] <Lgndryhr> will bring up xmms it will work no matter what and say something in terminal "Message: device: default"
[08:43] <tungarbulb> I did as you said. Nothing. No response. Cursor just sits there
[08:43] <Lgndryhr> *if it will work
[08:43] <eck> H264: run gconf-editor
[08:43] <Lgndryhr> let me know what happens
[08:43] <QRZ> Imsdle: Ok, then do, "sudo rm -rf /home/melissa/.Trash/*"
[08:43] <tungarbulb> No response, no error message, no action of any kind.
[08:44] <H264> meh
[08:44] <Lgndryhr> just goes to a new line?
[08:44] <H264> mind if I pm you?
[08:44] <eck> sure
[08:44] <tungarbulb> That's right, but without the prompt.
[08:44] <Lgndryhr> hmm
[08:44] <l90bpm> anyone know where I can find a crafty shell replacement?  want to be tacky..  something CSI'ish if you can
[08:44] <l90bpm> lol
[08:45] <Imsdle> QRZ - I get the same error
[08:45] <tungarbulb> Either something went flaky during the upgrade from Dapper to Edgy, or I punched the wrong button someplace.
[08:45] <QRZ> Imsdle: Even with the -rf switches?
[08:45] <l90bpm> hey, I noticed someone on jericho earlier using the gimp.. made me happt to see linux in use on tv
[08:45] <Lgndryhr> i think something went flaky
[08:45] <Lgndryhr> b/c it shouldnt be doing that
[08:45] <Lgndryhr> as far as i know
[08:46] <tungarbulb> Damn. So what do I do? Can I repair my installation or is it totally hosed?
[08:46] <Lgndryhr> that idk
[08:46] <tungarbulb> What's IDK?
[08:46] <Lgndryhr> i dont know
[08:46] <Lgndryhr> (sorry sorta sleepy)
[08:46] <tungarbulb> You too huh?
[08:46] <Lgndryhr> (so becoming lazy)
[08:46] <Lgndryhr> actually i should be in bed since i have work in the morning
[08:47] <Lgndryhr> lol
[08:47] <robby> k can i get a quick tut on how to get wireless to work
[08:47] <l90bpm> sleep is over rated
[08:47] <tungarbulb> Any idea as to what else I could do in the way of research, repairs, etc.?
[08:47] <robby> im using edgy on a toshiba satalite m105
[08:47] <billy> Anyone else ever have mplayer mozilla plugin just suddenly stop after playing a few seconds of quicktime format movies?
[08:47] <robby> i hate work, but dam i love the paycheck
[08:47] <l90bpm> must have a good job
[08:48] <Imsdle> it's doing something
[08:48] <l90bpm> hate work and the paycheck too'
[08:48] <Flannel> !wifi | robby
[08:48] <ubotu> robby: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:48] <robby> nope
[08:48] <Lgndryhr> post in ubuntu forums help, google around, and try looking around the synaptic installer
[08:48] <robby> i just need money
[08:48] <tungarbulb> Can I re-run the upgrade?
[08:48] <Lgndryhr> u can try to re-run it but ive never tried that
[08:48] <tungarbulb> I've been all over Synaptic. No dice.   And, what errors does "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" give?
[08:49] <Imsdle> thats awesome
[08:49] <kane77> what is the program that sets the amd cool n quiet?
[08:49] <QRZ> Imsdle: welcome
[08:49] <tungarbulb> Good night and thanx Lgndryhr.
[08:49] <Lgndryhr> np
[08:49] <Lgndryhr> night tungarbulb and l90bpm
[08:49] <Lgndryhr> peace
[08:49] <l90bpm> night night
[08:49] <eck> kane77: i think powernowd
[08:49] <l90bpm> xoxoxox
[08:49] <kane77> eck, right! thanx
[08:49] <foutrelis> good morning :)
[08:49] <tungarbulb> Flannel - I'm a recovering Windows user so I'm not sure what you're talking about. Please clarify.
[08:50] <l90bpm> we all are
[08:50] <Flannel> tungarbulb: Pastebin /etc/apt/sources.list (open it in a text editor)
[08:50] <l90bpm> winblows got us all started except maybe a few old heads that used unix
[08:50] <l90bpm> @ work..
[08:50] <Flannel> !paste | tungarbulb
[08:50] <ubotu> tungarbulb: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:50] <l90bpm> or they had one hell of a power bill
[08:51] <l90bpm> ubuntu is sexy..
[08:52] <tungarbulb> Flannel - Oh, you mean the list of sites where Ubuntu downloads files & updates from. Those are sll set to pull down from the Edgy archives.
[08:53] <Flannel> tungarbulb: alright, then open a terminal, and 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'
[08:53] <kane77> how do I temporarily disable powernowd?
[08:53] <tungarbulb> Ubotu - Not sure I understand what pastebin is for. I have no dumps or bug logs that I know of, if that's what it's for.
[08:54] <robby> can someone walk me thru gettign my wifi up please
[08:54] <Flannel> tungarbulb: I had said to pastebin your sources.list, so I gave you the URL, incase you didn't need it
[08:54] <robby> the tut is making me feel inferior
[08:54] <tarelerulz__> my ip keeps changing that that  make azureus stop working
[08:54] <lostdream> QQ
[08:54] <Priest-o1-Psi> is there a subversion client like tortoise svn?
[08:54] <buddha> ubuntu is WAY better than windows
[08:54] <lostdream> 88
[08:54] <QRZ> kane77: "/etc/init.d/powernowd stop" I'd say.
[08:55] <wyndblade> !vista
[08:55] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[08:55] <foutrelis> lol
[08:55] <foutrelis> ^.^
[08:55] <jlgaddis> damn, i can hear lindsey snoring all the way in here in my office
[08:55] <Flannel> Priest-o1-Psi: no, just standalone clients.
[08:55] <l90bpm> stupid question alert:  how do I check to see what version I'm currently running?
[08:55] <jlgaddis> erm, wrong channel
[08:55] <jlgaddis> heck, wrong network for that matter
[08:55] <tungarbulb> Flannel - I ran the sudo command. It says there's nothing to upgrade.
[08:55] <kane77> QRZ, but now it stayed at 1GHz...
[08:55] <l90bpm> vista: that shit is poop
[08:55] <robby> i agree
[08:56] <QRZ> kane77: Ok.
[08:56] <l90bpm> drm
[08:56] <Flannel> tungarbulb: alright, so, what's going wrong?
[08:56] <l90bpm> yuck
[08:56] <jlgaddis> l90bpm: cat /etc/issue should work
[08:56] <robby> can someone walk me thru getting my wifi up please
[08:56] <l90bpm> thanks
[08:56] <jlgaddis> Vista is nice.
[08:56] <robby> ive done it before i jsut want to write it down correctly so i can do it again if need be
[08:56] <tungarbulb> I wish I knew. XMMS will not start, period. Everything else works (as far as I know) but I could be wrong about that.
[08:56] <aldin> robby: say ur probl
[08:56] <mirra> can anyone here help me with iptables w/ nameservers ?
[08:56] <mirra> cant resolve names
[08:56] <Flannel> tungarbulb: in a terminal, type "xmms" and see what errors it gives
[08:57] <jlgaddis> mirra: You know the IP addresses of your nameservers?
[08:57] <robby> i am trying to get my wifi working so i can surf in bed
[08:57] <Flannel> tungarbulb: but, a quick way to fix it would be to remove xmms (completely), then reinstall
[08:57] <l90bpm> lol...  well I thought I upgraded
[08:57] <H264> :)
[08:57] <jlgaddis> iptables -I INPUT -s $dns_ip/32 --sport 53 --dport 1024:65535 -j ACCEPT
[08:57] <tungarbulb> Flannel - I type XMMS and NOTHING happens. No response whatsoever.
[08:57] <l90bpm> nope..  still running 6.06
[08:57] <H264> life is too easy
[08:58] <wyndblade> tungarbulb: using lowercase for xmms I hope
[08:58] <l90bpm> guess I better upgrade huh?
[08:58] <tungarbulb> Flannel - I removed then reinstalled several times. No dice. Feels like I'm using WIN 98 again!
[08:58] <mirra> yes..i tried adding them to the tables to accept but it doesnt work..it used to..
[08:58] <mirra> jlgaddis, that was to you
[08:59] <Flannel> tungarbulb: Did you "remove" or "complete removal" in synaptic?
[08:59] <tungarbulb> Flannel - Uppercase or lowercase, same thing - Nothing.
[08:59] <jlgaddis> mirra: can you post your iptables to pastebin?
[08:59] <tungarbulb> Perhaps it's time to empty out my bank account and buy a Mac.
[08:59] <mirra> pastebin is a channel?
[08:59] <jlgaddis> !pastebin
[08:59] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:00] <Flannel> tungarbulb: Did you remove the package completely? or just "remove" it?
[09:00] <l90bpm> is an upgrade absolutely nessesary?
[09:00] <tungarbulb> Flannel - completely.
[09:00] <l90bpm> I mean just so long as your updated
[09:00] <mirra> jlgaddis, one second
[09:01] <l90bpm> nanoo nanoo
[09:01] <jlgaddis> man, busy day tomorrow for a saturday... taco bell at 10am, looking at a bike at noon, another one at 2pm, then migrating a database server at 4.30.
[09:01] <l90bpm> sounds fun
[09:01] <Flannel> !offtopic
[09:01] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:01] <l90bpm> why taco hell at 10 in the am?
[09:02] <l90bpm> talk about heart burn
[09:02] <jlgaddis> l90bpm: heh, have to pull a dead hub and put a switch in its place
[09:02] <l90bpm> take the pink stuff
[09:02] <l90bpm> oic
[09:02] <Marupa> Heya, quick question about JRE, if anyone can help.
[09:02] <mirra> jlgaddis, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10739/ - i use webmin to configure the tables..
[09:02] <l90bpm> great.. now I have the song stuck in my head
[09:03] <Flannel> !anyone | Marupa
[09:03] <ubotu> Marupa: 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?
[09:03] <Flannel> l90bpm: Please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:03] <tungarbulb> Flannel - you there?
[09:03] <l90bpm> oops..  ok chief
[09:03] <jlgaddis> !foad
[09:03] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:03] <Marupa> I'm running an applet on a windows computer and on an ubuntu computer, both use JRE6, yet windows uses 0-2% CPU, while linux uses 92-100% CPU.  Is there a reason why?
[09:03] <Flannel> tungarbulb: I am.  I don't know what to say.  It not running, and not giving an error is most odd.
[09:04] <aldin> robby: can u post "lspci" command on pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org
[09:04] <jacquesmerde> quick question, if i boot a fesity livecd, i assume it will automount a fat32 partition on the harddrive, yeah? will it monut it ro or rw?
[09:04] <aldin> robby: and "iwconfig" too
[09:04] <tungarbulb> Flannel - So it's pile the data onto DVD's and wipe the HD and reinstall from scratch, right?
[09:04] <Marupa> rw, I'm pretty sure, jacquesmerde.
[09:04] <l90bpm> it's easy to get off subject when nobody answers your questions..
[09:04] <robby> aladin, do i do those in terminal
[09:04] <mirra> jlgaddis, any idea?
[09:04] <Flannel> tungarbulb: Do you have /home on it's own partition?
[09:05] <jlgaddis> mirra: well, your input chain is a little... weird, but it looks like it should work
[09:05] <tungarbulb> Flannel - No.
[09:05] <mirra> it doesnt
[09:05] <jlgaddis> mirra: i'd add a rule to the end that logs anything that's dropped
[09:05] <yvone> hi
[09:05] <jlgaddis> mirra: that might give you some more clues
[09:05] <mirra> where do i check the lgos
[09:05] <mirra> logs*
[09:05] <aldin> robby: yes
[09:05] <yvone> hello
[09:05] <jlgaddis> it'll log to /var/log/messages by default, iirc
[09:05] <yvone> hola
[09:06] <mirra> k ill check..thanks
[09:06] <robby> aladin how do i do it in paste bin?
[09:06] <aldin> robby: lspci & iwconfig -> paste it
[09:06] <robby> i havent used it yet
[09:06] <Zambezis> Is <IP_ADDRESS> called subnet? "Ntmask" in Swedish, I'm not sure.
[09:06] <yvone> nadien habla espaol?????????????
[09:06] <jlgaddis> Zambezis: subnet mask, or just netmask
[09:06] <Flannel> !es | yvone
[09:06] <ubotu> yvone: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[09:06] <eck> subnet and netmask are interchangeable
[09:06] <Flannel> tungarbulb: Ah, then... yeah.  Backup I suppose.  When you reinstall, you might want to put /home on it's own partition, to cut out the "backup" parts later, you can reinstall around all your personal stuff.
[09:06] <aldin> robby: ok, just open this site pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org and all ur results copy/paste there and send us link here
[09:06] <Flannel> !backup | tungarbulb, these might help
[09:06] <ubotu> tungarbulb, these might help: There are many ways to back your system up.

[09:17] <bkw> Even if I install Xfceubuntu on a computer, can I still install and run applications such as kwrite kate etc from the kde packages?
[09:17] <dilch> billy, to slashdot?
[09:17] <phinite> checking that now MainEiac
[09:17] <dilch> billy, i'll let you guess it
[09:17] <eriksomebody> any screensaver tips here?
[09:17] <Slynderdale> yvone: espaol -> #ubuntu-es
[09:17] <billy> dilch: i don't understand.  I must be out of the loop on something.
[09:17] <tarelerulz__> have any of used qtorrent and if so well it load a torrent and  pick up where you lleft off?
[09:17] <dilch> billy, go to slashdot.org or direct to http://www.osnews.com/story.php/17505/Ubuntu-Feisty-Fawn-Desktop-Linux-Matured/
[09:17] <aldin> robby: "encryption key:on" hmmm, well i dont know how to do this, i heard that u need some wpasuplicant package,...
[09:18] <billy> dilch:  thanks for the link.
[09:18] <aldin> robby: but u can try this
[09:18] <bullgard4> What is the effect of the line 'iface ath0 inet dhcp' in the file /etc/network/interfaces? (I have read 'man interfaces'.)
[09:18] <aldin> robby: it works for me on unencrypted networks
[09:18] <robby> aldin i know what the key is so how do i put it in so i can use the wireless
[09:18] <mirra> jlgaddis, you there?
[09:18] <dilch> billy, haha, i thought you were joking about a link for slashdot
[09:18] <phinite> MainEiac: I'm not seeing anything in dmesg to be honest.
[09:18] <aldin> robby: sudo iwconfig eth1 essid Terrazas
[09:18] <joshjosh> quick gnome question: how do I set my texts on panels to appear in a color other than black? I want to change them to white
[09:19] <billy> dilch:  no.  i'm just out of the loop.  :)  I've only used linux for about two months now, so there's lots I don't know.
[09:19] <phinite> would a reboot need to be done before I see anything in there anyway?
[09:19] <robby> aldin then what?
[09:19] <dilch> billy, ok .. well slashdot is good for a browse now and then, especially for a nice linux bias ;)
[09:20] <billy> dilch:  bookmarked.
[09:21] <MainEiac> phinite: was the printer on and connected when you installed the driver?
[09:21] <phinite> yes, it was.
[09:21] <aldin> robby: robby now with iwcongfig see if u got an network
[09:21] <dilch> billy, you liking linux? You must be, you lasted 2 months heh
[09:21] <phinite> linux printing is one of the one things that always makes me nervous.  I never seem to get it right
[09:21] <robby> aldin sudo iwconfig eth1 essid Terrazas
[09:21] <MainEiac> phinite: maybe you need to config cups,or,start cupsd
[09:22] <Cryoniq> !panel
[09:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about panel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:22] <robby> aldin sry
[09:22] <phinite> looking up where to do that now MainEiac
[09:22] <robby> unassociated
[09:22] <aldin> robby: what is sry
[09:22] <robby> aldin unassociated
[09:23] <robby> aldin is what it says
[09:23] <robby> aldin i dont know
[09:23] <dilch> sry == sorry
[09:23] <billy> dilch:  yeah.  I like Linux.  I like the freedom, the novelty.  I enjoy the challenge of learning new stuff.
[09:24] <dilch> billy, lol, you'll get over that when you run into some hard-core problems .. then you'll see how much you like it. That's when it becomes really fun though
[09:24] <aldin> dilch: thx
[09:24] <mirra> where does iptables keep its logs????????
[09:24] <aldin> robby: can u make ur wireless unencrypted
[09:24] <graulich> I'm sharing a folder via SMB but when I try to access it on Windows it asks for un+pass and none of the accounts on the Ubuntu machine work. how can I access this folder?
[09:24] <dilch> mirra, it logs to /var/log/messages by default
[09:24] <aldin> robby: ur AP so we connect on it
[09:24] <tarelerulz__> Do any of you know any torrent client that will pick up where other one  left off . So you don't have to start all over again if you have download alot of an iso
[09:24] <MainEiac> well way past my bedtime goodnight all
[09:25] <robby> aldin what?
[09:25] <robby> aldin ap?
[09:25] <mirra> nothing is being logged there tho
[09:25] <billy> dilch:  I haven't hit any hardcore problems yet.  I learn lots (especially what *not* to do) just reading this chat.
[09:25] <mirra> i added a rule for it
[09:25] <aldin> robby: acces point
[09:25] <robby> aldin oh
[09:25] <robby> aldin k what do i do tho?
[09:26] <dilch> billy, yeah it's good .. would have been handy when i was learning *nix back in the stone ages
[09:26] <aldin> robby: can u make it withtout encryption
[09:26] <dilch> mirra, do you have any logging rules?
[09:26] <robby> nope
[09:26] <mirra> yes..log all incoming
[09:27] <dilch> mirra, did you use firestarter?
[09:27] <robby> aldin nope sry
[09:27] <mirra> no
[09:27] <robby> aldin i know the wpa password tho
[09:27] <cypher1> !firestarter | mirra
[09:27] <ubotu> mirra: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[09:27] <dilch> mirra, does the rule show up when you do "iptables -L"?
[09:27] <aldin> robby: ok, wpasupplicant is thing what u need, AFAIK
[09:27] <mirra> yes
[09:28] <robby> aldin afaik?
[09:28] <aldin> robby: i never tried to connect on crypted wireless but i heard it is ok, it is possible
[09:28] <robby> where do i get it from?
[09:28] <dilch> mirra, and is it high enough up to actually get the traffic (ie not last so it only logs the dropped)
[09:28] <aldin> As Far As I Know = AFAIK
[09:28] <mirra> nope
[09:28] <mirra> good call...one sec
[09:28] <aldin> robby: dpkg -l | grep wpa
[09:28] <AzMoo> Hey, I'm having an issue connecting to a Vista share from this Ubuntu box. It keeps asking for a password, but there it shouldn't be.
[09:29] <aldin> robby: this one is to seee if it is installed
[09:29] <AzMoo> s/there//
[09:29] <Cryoniq> Anyone know how to edit color and text color etc for the gnome panels? One have to dive into config files and do it manually from there?
[09:29] <aldin> AzMoo: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER
[09:29] <aldin> AzMoo: sudo smbpasswd -e $USER
[09:29] <robby> aldin how do i install it or see if it is?
[09:29] <AzMoo> aldin, that's only required for connecting to the ubuntu box, isn't it?
[09:29] <Priest-o1-Psi> hmmmm rugby time
[09:30] <aldin> robby: to se if it is do dpkg -l | grep wpa
[09:30] <robby> ii  wpasupplicant                              0.5.4-5                       Client support for WPA and WPA2 (IEEE 802.11
[09:30] <aldin> to install it sudoa pt-get install wpasupplicant
[09:30] <aldin> AzMoo: is Vita sking u for pass or ubuntu
[09:31] <AzMoo> When I try to access the Vista share (smb://vistamachine/share) I'm asked for a password.
[09:31] <aldin> robby: ok, it is installed
[09:31] <robby> aldin k then what?
[09:31] <mirra> dilch, not working................
[09:31] <billy> dilch, nice article.  Once feisty is released April, I'm going to install it on a separate partition and see how it all goes.
[09:32] <dilch> mirra, ok, did you get the iptables script you're using from somwhere? Like maybe it's has it's logging set up to go somewhere else
[09:32] <aldin> robby: just sec i will explore a bit, never done this for my own cause i dont use crypted wirelles.. ok, brb, in meantime u can ask here how to connect u crypted wireless
[09:32] <kosnick> i try to compile some game, the instructions say "sh ./configure" but when i do so i get the response "can not guess the build type" . Can someone explain?
[09:32] <mirra> nope
[09:32] <mirra> did it in webmin
[09:32] <robby> anybody know how to conenct to a wap encrypted wireless
[09:32] <dilch> mirra, ah .. i kinda avoid webmin ... i wouldn't be surprised if it logged to somewhere else
[09:33] <cypher1> !wifi-radar | robby
[09:33] <mirra> any idea how to figure that out
[09:33] <ubotu> robby: wifi-radar: graphical utility for managing Wi-Fi profiles. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.9.7-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 36 kB, installed size 208 kB
[09:33] <AzMoo> aldin, When I try to access the Vista share (smb://vistamachine/share) I'm asked for a password.
[09:33] <robby> ubotu where do i get that from?
[09:34] <cypher1> robby, sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[09:34] <joshjosh> cypher1, sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[09:34] <kosnick> ubotu!
[09:34] <dilch> mirra, um, there could be if you pasted the iptables script to pastebin ... i don't know where webmin keeps it though
[09:34] <kosnick> ubotu
[09:34] <kosnick> !ubotu
[09:34] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:34] <phinite> I see the printer now through cups (v1.1.23) web administration, and I can send another test page, but nothing actually comes out
[09:34] <aldin> robby: ubotu is just a bot it automatically answers... u can try this sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[09:34] <kosnick> robby see this
[09:34] <kosnick> !ubotu
[09:34] <dilch> mirra, maybe /etc/rc.d/init.d/webmin-iptables
[09:34] <mirra> it doesn't list it when i view the tables from the command line
[09:35] <robby> aldin it didnt work
[09:35] <phinite> I can't see any errors in /var/log/syslog /var/log/cups/error_log or /var/log/dmesg
[09:35] <dilch> mirra, doesn't list what?
[09:35] <phinite> thoughts?
[09:35] <aldin> did u enabel ur repositories?
[09:35] <aldin> robby: is it WPA WEP or third..
[09:35] <robby> wpa
[09:36] <mirra> dilch, i dont have a rc.d directory...rc.local, rc0.d, rc1.d, etc... i was saying that iptables -L doesnt show any log paths
[09:36] <aldin> robby: what about ur repositories?
[09:36] <robby> aldin how do i check?
[09:37] <aldin> robby: hmm cat /etc/apt/sources.list or go to system->administration->synaptic
[09:37] <dilch> mirra, ah ok ... well there is a couple things to do ... are you registered? Can we go pm?
[09:37] <aldin> system->adinistration>software sources
[09:37] <aldin> robby: the upper line
[09:37] <mirra> dilch, i am not registered
[09:38] <phinite> how can I see what jobs are in a print queue?
[09:38] <v_> lpq
[09:38] <kosnick> in my panel the same "buttons" are collected under the same tab. How can i change that?
[09:38] <v_> phinite: lpq
[09:38] <mirra> dilch, i dont remeber how far our conversation goes..by my end result is to figure out why i cannot get nameservers to work with my iptables
[09:38] <eriksomebod1> can anybody help me with turning on my screensaver?
[09:38] <dilch> mirra, well, do /msg nickserv mirra <password>
[09:39] <robby> aldin k i think i turned them on now do i just try again for wifi radar?

[09:40] <hole> is the fish floppy?
[09:41] <dilch> mirra, lol, well register a nick, only because it probably isn't wise to be advertising what your doing to the firewall while testing
[09:41] <foutrelis> kyriakosax: I <3 you too.
[09:41] <aldin> robby: i think im gettin git?
[09:41] <aldin> robby: i am not englihman hehe

[09:56] <joshjosh> albertjh, I'm not familiar with your card...but try reading this thread and using what they've done; http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140085
[09:56] <albertjh> joshjosh, i configure all, i need to put the code for when i start ubuntu that my computer recongnize my eth1
[09:57] <joshjosh> albertjh ifconfig eth1 up
[09:57] <joshjosh> add that to system: preferences: sessions
[09:57] <albertjh> joshjosh, and that's all?
[09:57] <joshjosh> albertjh, yeah, that should work.
[09:57] <Newbi1> hey! does any1 know how to fix my 'system sanity check!, says it failed?
[09:58] <AzMoo> How do you change the sudo password?
[09:58] <albertjh> joshjosh,  look this :albertjh@albertjh-portatil:~$ sudo ifconfig eth1 up
[09:58] <albertjh> Password:
[09:58] <albertjh> albertjh@albertjh-portatil:~$
[09:58] <Newbi1> says something trying to run "dpkg  configure--a?
[09:58] <albertjh> joshjosh, when i start again its configure??
[09:58] <IndyGunFreak> well, i'd start with running that command, albertjh
[09:59] <joshjosh> albertjh, it should be
[09:59] <Newbi1> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.    any1 understand this?
[09:59] <albertjh> joshjosh, ok im going to try now, see in a minut ty!!
[09:59] <IndyGunFreak> Newbi1: open a terminal and run that command.
[10:00] <joshjosh> albertjh, alright. if that doesn't work...we'll try something else
[10:00] <IndyGunFreak> its telling you how to fix it.
[10:00] <Newbi1> ok

[10:04] <aldin> robby: what is situation
[10:04] <alecjw> rambo3, using sudo for graphical apps can cause the program not to work properly. do it to your own computer by all means, but please dont tell anyone else to

[10:17] <alecjw> ubtu, do you know what wireless card you have?
[10:18] <ubtu> intel 2200bg
[10:18] <alecjw> ubtu, it should be fine. my friend has one of those. it works fine, but the wireless light doesnt switch on
[10:18] <aldin> Huffalump: thx in my name... btw if i go ad-hoc would i be able to have wpa crypto
[10:19] <ubtu> well
[10:19] <ubtu> ok
[10:19] <ubtu> thanks
[10:20] <Huffalump> aldin - I don't see why ad-hoc or infrastructure would be different.
[10:22] <IndyGunFreak> Linux is pretty easy, but if you're so braindead you can't do a google search, you should stay away
[10:22] <phinite> ok, the printer is now installed on the linux box and working from there, working from the windows box correctly.  and finally, I have to get it printing from the mac..... I'm ALMOST there
[10:22] <phinite> peace all and thanks for the help
[10:22] <IndyGunFreak> oops, that shoulda been a PM..lol
[10:22] <Huffalump> haha
[10:23] <IndyGunFreak> well, not really a PM< just for another room
[10:23] <Huffalump> #ubuntu-oh-noez!!!
[10:23] <kalin> hi, i have an ubuntu installation completed on a hdd and i am trying to edit my existing windows xp bootloader boot.ini to add the ubuntu installation to the list. I used bootpart to create a boot file, but i think that requires lilo to be installed on the linux installation and i dont think it is. Is there some way I can setup grub for use from the xp bootloader?
[10:24] <IndyGunFreak> kalin: grub should have installed with your installation(at least it always has for me)
[10:24] <aldin> Huffalump: cause once i saw in XP's that it becomes disabled automatically whey u point to ad-hoc... nevermind perhaps i saw WEP instead WAP?
[10:24] <kalin> yeah, that's what i thought also, but i'm not sure how to get the xp bootloader to load it
[10:24] <Huffalump> yes, grub should have.  did you tell it not to, during the install?
[10:24] <robby> can i run kde and gnome on the same edgy comp?
[10:24] <aldin> robby: of course
[10:24] <kalin> the ubuntu is not on the boot partition
[10:24] <aldin> i do it on mine
[10:24] <Huffalump> kalin, the xp boot loader doesn't.  grub becomes the boot loader.
[10:24] <IndyGunFreak> kalin: are you running ubuntu on a second hard drive?
[10:25] <Huffalump> ah.
[10:25] <kalin> IndyGunFreak, yes
[10:25] <rambo3> i know i used loadlin for that kalin
[10:25] <IndyGunFreak> kalin: set your bios to boot that hard drive first
[10:25] <pierodelta> !fstab
[10:25] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[10:25] <DivineLight> Does Ubuntu manages binaries of packages not included in the distro cd?
[10:25] <Huffalump> DivineLight, can you be more specific?
[10:26] <IndyGunFreak> kalin: most likely, you installed grub to that drive, instead of your windows drive, not a huge deal, you just need to set your bios to boot your linux drive first
[10:26] <Huffalump> There's always something you could download which might not be on the CD.  But the CD has everything you need.
[10:26] <DivineLight> I need to download Bison package, is it available on the Ubuntu site as a binary ?
[10:26] <alecjw> kalin, you're go9ing to have ro reinstalll grub to the mbr. do you know how to do that?
[10:26] <DivineLight> Compiling from source is sometimes problematic.
[10:26] <IndyGunFreak> alecjw: its probably on his second drive,
[10:26] <IndyGunFreak> DivineLight: sometimes?..lol
[10:26] <Priest-o1-Psi>  root@jeanre-desktop:/home/jeanre# apt-cache search bison
[10:26] <Priest-o1-Psi> bison - A parser generator that is compatible with YACC
[10:27] <DivineLight> Huffalump: No, to compile wine I need flex and bison that are not included
[10:27] <Priest-o1-Psi> DivineLight: its in the repos
[10:27] <alecjw> IndyGunFreak, kalin, thn you need to tell your bios to boot from your second hard drive first
[10:27] <DivineLight> Yeah, 90% of the time :D
[10:27] <Huffalump> DivineLight, http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=bison&searchon=names&subword=1&version=edgy&release=all
[10:27] <IndyGunFreak> alecjw: thats what i told him
[10:27] <rambo3> hahaha
[10:27] <alecjw> IndyGunFreak, oh sorry
[10:27] <DivineLight> Thanks Huffalump !
[10:27] <Fujitsu> DivineLight: Why would you compile wine? Just open up Synaptic Package Manager (System->Applications->Synaptic Package Manager), and locate the packages you need (wine, in this case)
[10:28] <robby> can i run kde and gnome on the same computer and just choose which i use at bootup?
[10:28] <DivineLight> Fujitsu: My Uber Modem (Huwai Wireless Modem) doesn't work on Ubuntu :(
[10:28] <Huffalump> robby, yes.
[10:29] <Fujitsu> DivineLight: You can find the packages at packages.ubuntu.com. There are download links there, if you can't access the Internet in Ubuntu.
[10:29] <robby> huffalump how can i do that?
[10:29] <DivineLight> Fujitsu: Yes i am searching them. thanks :)
[10:30] <IndyGunFreak> robby: search synaptic for kde... then install the kde-desktop GUI....(i think its named just, kde).
[10:30] <Huffalump> robby - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-kde-kubuntu-on-ubuntu/
[10:30] <IndyGunFreak> it'll take about 5mn or so to install.
[10:30] <xc_legend> hello i have a question concerning e17 on 6.06 lts
[10:30] <svu> why would user apps be refused connection to dbus - if system dbus-daemon is running and user dbus-launch as well???
[10:30] <Fujitsu> robby, IndyGunFreak: It's kubuntu-desktop
[10:30] <Huffalump> robby, after you play with that and have it working.... then try xfce w/ Beryl
[10:30] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: i'm pretty sure last time i installed it, it was just kde
[10:30] <IndyGunFreak> in synaptic that is.
[10:30] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: I can assure you it is, and always has been, kubuntu-desktop.
[10:31] <Fujitsu> Huffalump: ... why?

[10:31] <robby> huffalump does beryl work with a laptop touchpad?
[10:31] <`nicola> which port does ubuntu remote desktop use ? I need to forward it because I'm behind a router
[10:31] <`nicola> thanks
[10:31] <Huffalump> IndyGunFreak - I've decided xfce is not longer for free
[10:31] <Huffalump> IndyGunFreak - freaks
[10:31] <Fujitsu> robby: Of course!
[10:31] <IndyGunFreak> Huffalump: lol.
[10:31] <Huffalump> Fujitsu - Because it's great?
[10:31] <Fujitsu> Well, as much as Beryl works with anything.
[10:31] <Huffalump> robby, most likely it will work just great.
[10:31] <Fujitsu> Huffalump: Beryl is unstable as anything. You shouldn't tell newish users to use it.
[10:32] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: so whatis the kde package in synaptic?  kde...... The K Desktop environment official modules
[10:32] <tombow> beryl is the greatest thing ever
[10:32] <robby> huffalump thnx
[10:32] <IndyGunFreak> thats the one i've always installed, and it worked fine
[10:32] <Huffalump> Fujitsu - I am new.  Under a month and now have it on multiple machines with vastly different video cards.  All working fine.
[10:32] <robby> ill have to try that
[10:32] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: That's a small component of it.
[10:32] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: but when i choose to install it, it installs all dependencies, programs, etc.
[10:32] <Fujitsu> kubuntu-desktop is what you should use to get the whole thing.
[10:32] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: ... that's the point.
[10:33] <kalin> rambo3, so loadlin will allow me to boot from my windows install, but i want to get it added to the bootloader list so i dont have to boot windows first :)
[10:33] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: i guess i'm missing the point, what do you mean?
[10:33] <Priest-of-Psi> man gnome feels so uh how can I explain this...... stupid
[10:33] <Fujitsu> Having KDE without any of its applications is sort of losing the whole effect.
[10:34] <IndyGunFreak> i don't even have kubuntu-desktop
[10:34] <Fujitsu> Priest-of-Psi: Some feel that way.
[10:34] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: it installs all the applications
[10:34] <Huffalump> Priest-of-Psi, if you find yourself unable to use it effectively, then change to KDE or XFCE
[10:34] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: Your point? That's the ideal situation.
[10:34] <Priest-of-Psi> Huffalump: yeah
[10:34] <Priest-of-Psi> it does not feel effective
[10:34] <Huffalump> Or put Beryl on top.
[10:34] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: i guess i'm trying to figure out why mine says kde.... and yet you recommended kde-desktop.
[10:34] <Huffalump> Vrrrooooom.
[10:34] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: I recommended kubuntu-desktop.
[10:35] <IndyGunFreak> thats what i meant, sorry
[10:35] <IndyGunFreak> i guess it doesn't matter, end result is the same
[10:35] <Fujitsu> kubuntu-desktop depends on the entirety of KDE, so brings in more than just kde.
[10:36] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: everyti8me i've installed kde using apt-get kde.., i got a zillion programs with it, it was definitely kubuntu in its entirety
[10:36] <Jimmey> What kind of cable do I need to be able to watch what's going on on my Xserver on my TV?
[10:36] <tritoch> Jimmey: depends on what kind of output/inputs you have
[10:38] <Jimmey> tritoch, I've got a nVidia FX5700LE, on the box next to "TV-Out", it says "DVI-I"
[10:38] <Jimmey> tritoch, but the card didn't come with any cables/adapters
[10:39] <tritoch> what does your tv have?
[10:39] <tritoch> for inputs
[10:39] <Jimmey> tritoch, scart, and normal AV
[10:40] <tritoch> sounds like you want a dvi-->scart ?
[10:40] <Fujitsu> tritoch: More likely S-VIDEO->SCART or normal AV.

[10:59] <MrStein> szevasz
[10:59] <Rooy> KDan: in ~/.wine/drive_c/Pro...
[10:59] <Fujitsu> KDan: ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files

[11:27] <nitalaut> hello guys
[11:27] <Shaffox> MaximusBrood, install unrar :)
[11:27] <Ace2016> That should work
[11:27] <gn0me> Running any apt-get command except "upgrade" results in the following error: "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." -- but when I do run dpkg --configure -a, it returns no output, and running any apt-get command again gives the error again. Is there some kind of lockfile I could get rid of or something to make dpkg restart on whatever package it's stuck on?

[11:29] <MrStein> let me refrase: Will Feisty have or have not ntfs r/w support ? As is "having",  not "being able to download and do it yourself".

[11:30] <Craeo> GParted, do I install that with Synaptic?
[11:31] <Lattyware> Hey all, I'm running a live CD trying to install onto a Raid0 array, using DMraid, following this guide: http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto - it all works, except for the fact that I can't do a apt-cdrom add - and don't want to download loads of packages to do the install, can anyone help? It gives me the error: E: Failed to mount the cdrom.
[11:31] <Lattyware> Craeo: Yeah, it's the one used in the installer.
[11:31] <nitalaut> MrStein, thanks, it seems virtualbox it that what i need, already downloading
[11:31] <Craeo> Lattyware: Is it installed by default or do I need to install it manually?
[11:32] <MetaMorfoziS> what i need, if i have two network interface, and i want something like dhcp server, that automatically manages the ipadresses for the connecting clients
[11:32] <MetaMorfoziS> ?
[11:32] <Lattyware> Craeo: you need to install it manually, unless you are running the live CD
[11:32] <Lattyware> synaptic with a search for gparted should do it.
[11:32] <Craeo> Lattyware: Thanks for the info, I will put it to good use

[11:40] <jrib> Orta: the easiest way would be to create a symlink in /usr/local/bin .  If you want to understand more, google for "linux path"
[11:41] <clarkphp> me-: If you hit http://www.ubuntuforums.org/ and click the tag cloud tag "nvidia", you may find a decent starting place for solving your problem.  I don't know how to help, myself.  Good luck with it.
[11:41] <Orta> what would a symlink be?
[11:41] <jrib> Orta: ln -s TARGET NAME
[11:41] <Lattyware> Orta: Think Shortcut.
[11:41] <Orta> i thought about that tbh
[11:42] <me-> clarkphp: ty
[11:42] <Andeh> I finally got beryl up and running!
[11:42] <unop> Orta,  you might want to add ./bluej_dir to your path ..  export PATH=$PATH:./bluej_dir

[11:46] <Lattyware>  because it crashes every time I try and boot into it since I added my SATA Hard/DVD drives.
[11:46] <Orta> is /usr/lib/bluej a recommendable location?
[11:46] <Wooksta> "/dev/hdb1       /media/200gig   defaults                0       0"  <--- any reason this line wouldn't work when the mount point & hd / partition are correct?  (i dont seem to get any errors on boot up, is there a log from failed fstab attempts?
[11:47] <Lattyware> Wooksta: Where is the filesystem?
[11:47] <Lattyware> ext3? fatx?
[11:47] <Wooksta> hmm good point lol
[11:47] <Wooksta> doh!
[11:47] <Wooksta> its ext3
[11:47] <Lattyware> lol.
[11:48] <Wooksta> jesus sorry, slow this morning :D
[11:48] <Lattyware> NP - I've done similar.
[11:48] <Lattyware> Now I have to wait 2 hours to download packages I allready have.
[11:48] <Lattyware> ugh
[11:48] <kingrayray> I LOVE THAT
[11:48] <kingrayray> lol
[11:48] <clarkphp> Lattyware: Wish I knew what to tell you; is it possible to contact the author of the guide?  I'm sure you've looked in other forums, too.
[11:49] <Lattyware> clarkphp: Yeah, But contacting the author will take longer than just downloading the packages.
[11:50] <Lattyware> I never thought setting up 1TB of hard disks would become this hard :/
[11:50] <clarkphp> Lattyware: Oh.  True.  If you need a quick solution, I'm afraid I'm not the one to ask this morning.
[11:50] <Lattyware> heh
[11:50] <Lattyware> At least the SATA DVD drives worked fine from the word go.
[11:51] <Lattyware> Now I have two writers, at 16x.  Wine works to an extent, but still.
[11:53] <aspetos> hi, is there a gui to edit fstab?
[11:53] <Lattyware> I use Ubuntu for 99% of stuff though.
[11:53] <Lattyware> aspetos: Why bother? It's easy enough.
[11:53] <infidel> when did they change modtools to module-init-tools?
[11:54] <Lattyware> colo_intevo: If I didn't have windows aswell, what would be the alternative?
[11:54] <aspetos> Lattyware cause i see the uuid entries on the default fstab and i'm wondering if there might be some aytomations from the distro that like that format
[11:55] <pixi> cool
[11:55] <Rooy> aspetos: no, uuid is permanent and unique, therefore it's used to point to /, not the /dev/hda* stuff
[11:56] <Nookie> has anyone managed to install this theme? http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Nimbus+%28Gentoo+ebuild%29?content=54702
[11:57] <aspetos> so there is no danger in puttint plain old /dev/sda1 etc entries in fstab
[11:57] <aspetos> because the default entries i'm seeing have uuid as the first part of the line
[11:57] <ompaul> aspetos, why not system -> administration -> disks
[11:58] <Rooy> aspetos: if you don't bring the drive to another comp where it may become sdc or smt else
[11:58] <aspetos> ompaul i dont have such an entry under system-> administration. what do i search for in synaptic to install that utility?
[11:58] <Lattyware> Hey all, I'm running an edgy live CD trying to install onto a Raid0 array, using DMraid, following this guide: http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto - it all works, except for the fact that I can't do a apt-cdrom add - and don't want to download loads of packages to do the install, can anyone help?

[11:59] <aspetos> 6.10
[11:59] <aspetos> desktop

[12:00] <ompaul> battery flat back in three
[12:00] <etchris> Guys, how do i make Beryl startup with ubuntu?
[12:00] <HONKyTONK> Wow! Nice support channel here ;)
[12:00] <Lattyware> etchris, System -> Prefs -> Sessions
[12:01] <aspetos> etchris you go to system -
[12:01] <Lattyware> Then add 'beryl-manager'
[12:01] <twager> Anyone know if the md5sum generated by k3b needs to be checked against the md5sum file or is it correct ?
[12:01] <aspetos> etchris you go to system -> preferences-> Sessions and put beryl-manager on the programs
[12:01] <etchris> Lattyware, Argh i only missed out the -
[12:01] <Lattyware> heh
[12:01] <aspetos> and i was overtaken by Lattyware (-:
[12:02] <etchris> hehe
[12:02] <Lattyware> lol

[12:02] <MartinE> Hi all
[12:02] <MartinE> Can someone tell me how to install an nvidia video card driver as I'm a noob!
[12:03] <HONKyTONK> Hey MartinE
[12:03] <MartinE> hi
[12:03] <HONKyTONK> There are a lot of "HowTo's"
[12:03] <HONKyTONK> Wait, I'm searching for a very good one for you...
[12:03] <MartinE> i thought this was going to be complicated
[12:03] <Rooy> MartinE: open a terminal and execute :"sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx"
[12:04] <[WaZ] > anyone been able to set beryl on dual monitors with ATI/XGL?
[12:04] <HONKyTONK> ;) Thank ya rooy
[12:04] <MartinE> I downloaded the nvidia driver from the nvidia website
[12:04] <jpjacobs> !nvidia>MartinE
[12:04] <MartinE> was this the correct thing to do?
[12:04] <MartinE> !nvidia
[12:04] <[WaZ] > im using xinerama for dual monitors and the fglrx driver
[12:04] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:04] <Lattyware> [WaZ] : I've done it with an nVidia card.
[12:04] <[WaZ] > Lattyware: yeah I know it works on nvidia
[12:04] <foutrelis> MartinE: There are basically 3 steps :)
[12:04] <[WaZ] > but session crashes on fglrx
[12:05] <MartinE> ok
[12:05] <MartinE> carry on
[12:05] <impact> hi
[12:05] <impact> this sounds a  little bit stupid, I cannot remember if I installed 64 bit or 32 bit version of ubuntu. What is the easiest way to find that out?
[12:05] <Lattyware> Hey all, I'm running an edgy live CD trying to install onto a Raid0 array, using DMraid, following this guide: http://www.ubuntu-in.org/wiki/SATA_RAID_Howto - it all works, except for the fact that I can't do a apt-cdrom add - and don't want to download loads of packages to do the install, can anyone help? It gives me the error: E: Failed to mount the cdrom. - Also note I can't boot my original install on my IDE drives,
[12:05] <Lattyware>  because it crashes every time I try and boot into it since I added my SATA Hard/DVD drives.
[12:05] <foutrelis> MartinE: First you stop gdm by running sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (don't do that now)
[12:05] <MartinE> ok
[12:05] <MartinE> what is gdm?
[12:06] <[WaZ] > Gnome Desktop Manager
[12:06] <ompaul> aspetos, system preferences removable drives and media
[12:06] <MartinE> k
[12:06] <Lattyware> impact: What CPU do you have?
[12:06] <juan_> buenos dias
[12:06] <MartinE> but not yet?
[12:06] <impact> dual core opterons
[12:06] <foutrelis> MartinE: Next you [apt-get install build-essential]  and [apt-get remove nvidia-kernel-common]
[12:07] <foutrelis> MartinE: Write down these steps cause you will get into command line after stopping gdm :)
[12:07] <MartinE> foutrelis, where do i type those commands into, a terminal window?
[12:07] <Lattyware> impact: I'm pretty sure they are 64bit, so you can install either version, 32 bit has better support and apps, 64 has better speed.
[12:07] <foutrelis> MartinE: Yep
[12:07] <MartinE> without the brackets?
[12:07] <impact> that is not the problem
[12:07] <etchris> Ok....I added that beryl-manager line to startup, then when i rebooted, all icons off desktop disappear, and upon load it opens my home folder like 7 times
[12:07] <foutrelis> MartinE: Yep
[12:07] <impact> I have already installed xubuntu
[12:07] <impact> but I cannot remember which version ;(
[12:08] <foutrelis> MartinE: Last step is to run the nvidia installer you downloaded from nvidia.com
[12:08] <Lattyware> oh, right.
[12:08] <MartinE> how do i run it. its not a .deb file
[12:08] <aspetos> ompaul i believe that is for hotplug devices and actions to be automatically executed when plugged in. what i had in mind is the scenario where one edits her hard disks with something like gparted and then wants to have the new prtition(s) mounted after reboot
[12:08] <HONKyTONK> Is there a translator for ubunutu available...like Babylon for Windowsj???
[12:08] <impact> and my kernel is 2.6.16.-11-generic
[12:08] <foutrelis> MartinE: You [cd directory_where_you_saved_the_nvidia_installer]
[12:09] <[WaZ] > MartinE: sudo ./file
[12:09] <impact> so it does not impl that it is amd64
[12:09] <MartinE> its on the desktop
[12:09] <Lattyware> impact: Ah, then it'll be 32bit, I think. 64bit would be named differently.
[12:09] <Lattyware> I'm not 100% sure though.
[12:09] <MartinE> I'm a bit confused as to what steps to do first now!
[12:09] <[WaZ] > Lattyware: correct
[12:10] <[WaZ] > MartinE you should just follow a tutorial
[12:10] <Rooy> impact: the generic kernel replace x86_64 kernel (saw that in Synaptic description)
[12:10] <MartinE> the tutorial link is not for my video card. I have a 7600
[12:10] <foutrelis> MartinE: Stop gdm, [apt-get install build-essential]  and [apt-get remove nvidia-kernel-common] , and then run the nvidia installer :)
[12:10] <[WaZ] > MartinE just a sec
[12:10] <impact> the origin of my problem is something different: I tried to install VMWare Server, and I get a strange error message with the config script ...
[12:10] <MartinE> k
[12:11] <MartinE> is there mirc for ubuntu as I'm doing this on my windows pc
[12:11] <impact> according to the inet, multilib support is missing. But multilib is only needed if I have amd64, or am I missing the point?
[12:11] <[WaZ] > MartinE: yes
[12:11] <Rooy> MartinE: there's xchat for IRC
[12:11] <[WaZ] > MartinE: install X-chat
[12:11] <MartinE> that simple?
[12:12] <krzysiek> jest kto z Polski?
[12:12] <worzl> nope xD
[12:12] <foutrelis> MartinE: The PC you're talking from now is the same with the PC you 'll install the nvidia drivers?
[12:12] <MartinE> no
[12:12] <HONKyTONK> No Dictionary's or Texttranslators AV for ubuntu???
[12:12] <ompaul> aspetos, have a look at endeavour2 I am not saying it is what you want but it might work
[12:12] <MartinE> I wanted to be able to chat with you guys from my ubuntu pc
[12:13] <ompaul> !pl
[12:13] <ubotu> Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[12:13] <[WaZ] > Martin-E: in terminal: sudo apt-get update | sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome
[12:13] <MartinE> I tried the install x-chat but get an error. something to do with destination
[12:13] <me-> does anyone know how to execute "/sbin/modprobe -a nvidia" before kdm starts?
[12:13] <aspetos> ok, thanks for the effor ompaul :)
[12:14] <enyc> me-:  i would think nvidia module is loaded autematically when X server starts the nvidia driver
[12:14] <me-> sry "/sbin/modprobe -r nvidia" i mean
[12:14] <me-> enyc: not by me :(
[12:14] <enyc> me-: hrrm remove the module?
[12:14] <enyc> me-: well i dont see why youd want that...
[12:15] <enyc> me-: reconfigure the xserver so it doesn't use the nvidia binary driver?
[12:15] <[WaZ] > MartinE_ worked?
[12:15] <MartinE_> hi
[12:16] <MartinE_> now i'm on my ubuntu pc
[12:16] <MartinE_> excellent!
[12:16] <MartinE_> now can you very helpful people help me with this video driver
[12:17] <foutrelis> MartinE: I tried but I guess I'm not very good at tutoring.. : (
[12:17] <enyc> me-: if you want to switch between the "nv" driver (no 3d acceleration, does not need the nvidia module) and the "nvidia" driver... use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[12:17] <MartinE_> now i'm on the correct pc, can you run through it again for me please?
[12:17] <enyc> me-: if you really want to stop a module loading at all I think you can put it in a modules "blacklist" somewhere
