[13:22] <ravious> i dont have a duel head, i have two cards.. I've totally reconstructed my xorg.conf file.. from my original settings "Pre-xrandr" and they give me errors..

I've got an nvidia pci, and an onboard via card.. by default.. ubuntu detects, installs drivers and works fine with the nvidia card.. just everything breaks when

[14:03] <wikkedfin> ozgur, so i am ;)

[14:04] <Ascavasaion> ActionParsnip: I think I am too dumb for this.

[14:05] <runpain2> actcually need to check if hard drive is bad
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> Ascavasaion: just keep at it. as far as the guides have said I dont think it has infared. But i could be wrong. Have a swing at it if you get time. IBM supprt linux very well
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> !fsck | runpain2
[14:06] <Ascavasaion> ActionParsnip: check http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-55318  There is says (and shows a picture) of the infrared port.
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> Ascavasaion: doesnt mean theres an IR sender behind it
[14:06] <ozgur> I couldn't write a text with newlines as a body in nofity-send command, what I tried is: "/usr/bin/notify-send -u normal "New mail\n" "You have new messages in your inbox\n\n" -t 3000" but it couldn't work, how can i enable interpretation of backslash escapes in notify-send command

[14:07] <runpain2> Will that also do a scan like the dos does for windows
[14:07] <jackiemcghee> is there console app that will display a clock similar to the way ncmpc does? Sadly, any search of Google with clock, linux and console brings up a myriad of unhelpful info.
[14:07] <quibbler> fioccobianco: just tell your problem and someone will probably help

[14:08] <ozgur> i want to enable the interpretation of newlines in notify-send command

[14:09] <jrib> or just press enter
[14:09] <runpain2> a surface scan is what i want
[14:09] <ozgur> but it didn't work

[14:09] <fiftyone> hello all, i was wondering if someone could help me with my interent. I go to alot of internet cafes with my laptop and until now I have always just pluged in the ethernet cabel and was online instantly. Today I am at a new cafe and for some reason my net is not working, I cannot connect. This is the second cafe I tried.
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> runpain2: not sure but if you drop to the console you can run fsck with any options you choose
[14:10] <fiftyone> also, usually the ethernet cabel lights up when i connect it but now nothing... No lights no nothing.
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> dad: ok so did you just run sudo nvidia-xconfig ??
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> dad: I think you are close
[14:11] <jackiemcghee> fiftyone: the two places you have tried, has your laptop worked there before? Or are these new places?
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> dad: if you just ran sudo nvidia-xconfig you will need to restart your xserver
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> dad: then rerun gksudo nvidia-settings
[14:12] <fiftyone> jackiemcghee,  these are new places I have never been with this laptop before.
[14:12] <dad> I did: same error message

[14:15] <hyakuhei> Hi All, the Netbeans package wants to use a number of packages like libgcj - I have no intention of using these, is there a way I can just pull down the netbeans stuff without the deps and install it through apt so that I still get updates ?

[14:21] <tomkirby> actionparsnip: i'll leave my machine running the test user for a few hours while i'm out and then see what the logs say when i get back!
[14:22] <DarkKnight> ActionParsnip; http://paste.ubuntu.com/117271/
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> tomkirby: if its ok then its your profile which i'd suggest you troubleshoot from the test user, rename config folders in the home folder til you get a stable system
[14:22] <daleharvey> does screen keep history
[14:23] <fiftyone> hi, i was wondering if someone could help me with an networking problem. I go to alot of net cafes with my laptop and until now I have always just plugged the cabel in and was online. However, today I have been to two cafes and my internet is not working at all. I am not even getting a light from the ethernet connection port it usually lights up...
[14:23] <fiftyone> these are new cafes i have never been to with my laptop before
[14:23] <heatmzzr> Why does my ubuntu only recognize 3gb of the 4gb ram i have?
[14:23] <deany> heatmzzr, you need to modify kernel to see 4gb or use server kernel
[14:23] <DarkKnight> ActionParsnip; what should i do now??
[14:24] <deany> heatmzzr, pretty silly really as 4gb is more common these days..
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> DarkKnight: let me get the link
[14:24] <hateball> deany, heatmzzr: 64-bit is a viable option
[14:24] <Impulsive> hey all, anyone want to try and help me solve my apache/ubuntu problem?
[14:25] <deany> im guessing he doesnt have 64bit cpu..
[14:25] <dad> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/f5900aecf
[14:25] <deany> or he`d have used it.. just an assumption
[14:25] <dad> still in low-resolution... sniff
[14:25] <heatmzzr> hateball: 64bit
[14:25] <hateball> deany: 4GB and a 32-bit cpu seems strange tho :)
[14:25] <mandrig> !anyone
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> DarkKnight: try: sudo apt-get instal flashplayer-nonfree
[14:25] <hateball> heatmzzr: I'd have installed the 64-bit version instead. Works a charm
[14:26] <hateball> heatmzzr: Even Flash and the Java plugin are 64-bit these days so
[14:26] <dad> here is the xorg log: http://pastebin.com/f181ec9c7
[14:26] <deany> 64bit version works with 32bit cpu system/
[14:26] <deany> ?
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> dad: does gksudo nvidia-settings run ok now?
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> deany: no, but 32bit can work on 64bit
[14:26] <cdavis> What program can I try to send SMS messages to Verizon cell phones? I am hoping to do something so that they Verizon SMS can still be considered "IN" txting.
[14:26] <dad> nope
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> DarkKnight: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.d21.1.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[14:27] <dad> hello xaos11!!
[14:27] <xaos11> hi
[14:27] <xaos11> any progress?
[14:27] <fiftyone>  hi, i was wondering if someone could help me with an networking problem. I go to alot of net cafes with my laptop and until now I have always just plugged the cabel in and was online. However, today I have been to two cafes and my internet is not working at all. I am not even getting a light from the ethernet connection port it usually lights up... these are new cafes i have never been to with my laptop before
[14:27] <dad> I removed the 9400GT, and I am struggling to have the onboard nForce610 working... but it looks the same...
[14:27] <Roq> fiftyone: what happens if you ifdown/ifup ?
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> dad: try adding the resolution lines like in my xorg.conf
[14:28] <deany> never knew that.. hmmm..
[14:28] <dad> ok
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> dad: http://pastebin.com/f78b3a09e
[14:28] <fiftyone> Roq, I am not sure what you mean.
[14:28] <mandrig> cdavis: I read somewhere that sms is treated like email, and you should be able to send an email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:29] <Roq> fiftyone: interface down interface up
[14:29] <xaos11> ActionParsnip: i thought that 8.10 doesn't use xorg.conf? or does it?
[14:29] <mandrig> cdavis: google email to sms, I'm sure you'll find something
[14:29] <DarkKnight> ActionParsnip; thank you very much...i am downloading it...can you tell me how to install
[14:29] <cdavis> mandrig: I can but the problem is Verizon doesn't consider that Verizon to Verizon texting and charge per message
[14:29] <perlsyntax> What is a good gui for python?
[14:29] <dad> ActionParsnip: you mean the line with "metamode..."?
[14:29] <xaos11> pygtk?
[14:29] <perlsyntax> that in the package manger for unbuntu
[14:29] <fiftyone> Roq, no idea i didnt try that. Like I said i usually just go plug it in and it works. but twice today it has not worked.
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> dad: yeah
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> DarkKnight: mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins
[14:30] <perlsyntax> pygtk?
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> DarkKnight: then extract the .so file to ~/.mozilla/plugins
[14:30] <mandrig> cdavis: Oh, I don't know how to get around that... Besides, trying to get around that is likely violating the ToS
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> !info pygtk
[14:30] <ActionParsnip> !pygtk
[14:30] <perlsyntax> how do i install it
[14:31] <xaos11> perlsyntax: i don't know exactly what you mean about gui to python, but i have needed it before
[14:31] <xaos11> perlsyntax: do you need it to compile a package?
[14:32] <perlsyntax> you mean tar zxvf file name and then cd and then sudo make?
[14:33] <fiftyone>  hi, i was wondering if someone could help me with an networking problem. I go to alot of net cafes with my laptop and until now I have always just plugged the cabel in and was online. However, today I have been to two cafes and my internet is not working at all. I am not even getting a light from the ethernet connection port it usually lights up... these are new cafes i have never been to with my laptop before
[14:33] <xaos11> perlsyntax: if that's what you need it for, look for a package in synaptic called libpython-gtk, or just do a search for python gtk
[14:33] <heatmzzr> hateball: can i install 64 bit ubuntu without completely distroying other data?
[14:33] <xaos11> perlsyntax: and you might need to install the one with "-dev" at the end
[14:33] <perlsyntax> thanks
[14:33] <xaos11> perlsyntax: what you trying to install?
[14:33] <hateball> heatmzzr: Well if you put /home on it's partition you can keep that. / will get overwritten tho
[14:34] <xaos11> fiftyone: you have the usb adapter?
[14:34] <fiftyone> xaos11, what do you mean usb adapter?
[14:34] <hateball> heatmzzr: if you specifically tell the installer to keep /home, that is... not doing a guided install
[14:34] <quibbler> could someone shed some light on this: my system login sound has stopped working...for the rest, sound is fine..amarok vlc mail notification etc work great
[14:34] <heatmzzr> hateball: best to just wipe it out and restart anyway right, fresh everything?
[14:35] <b1> asda
[14:35] <dad> ActionParsnip: added the metamode option, restarted the X server... and now what? Nvidia-settings says the same message, and still stuck with 800x600
[14:35] <xaos11> fiftyone: i thought you were here yesterday taling about a usb wifi. maybe it was someone else. what type of connection do you use to get online?
[14:35] <hateball> heatmzzr: if it's a brand new install, yeah. Takes like 20 minutes anyhow :)
[14:35] <ActionParsnip> quibbler: what if you set it to something else?
[14:35] <hateball> heatmzzr: I suggest making a separate /home partition when/if you do so tho
[14:36] <fiftyone> xaos11, no not me. I am connecting threw a wired connection. Unplug from the pc plug it into the lappy. It usually works without a hitch but today its not working at all. No idea what the problem is.
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> heatmzzr: hateball: +1 for home partition
[14:36] <heatmzzr> hateball: not that, just all the extra stuff. Ive been considering getting rid of winblows all together as I no longer use it so maybe a good time to do it all over... damn though, i got alot on these drives\
[14:36] <Roq> fiftyone: how is your eth interface configured? dhcp?
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: try: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart    when you attach it
[14:37] <ociugi> i have problem with my totem, it played with sounds but no images.
[14:37] <hateball> heatmzzr: backup whatever data you need to an external source if possible, wipe the legacy OS and start anew :)
[14:37] <SunnyDP> ociugu: you dont like VLC ?
[14:37] <ActionParsnip> !plugins | ociugi
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> !plugins
[14:38] <quibbler> ActionParsnip: i did but that had no result..i find it strange because sound tests are all fine ...sound in other programs and devices are fine..just no system sound any more and no files play there either
 i install other video player but the same problem
[14:38] <SunnyDP> hmmm
[14:38] <SunnyDP> fresh ubuntu install: 8.10 ?
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> ociugi: have you installed the medibunti codecs?
[14:38] <heatmzzr> hateball; yep, thats what ill do... just gonna wait til tonight? so is the ext4 version out and stable yet?
 yes
[14:38] <LeoWei> i setting up no ip in my machine but i dont know what is the name of the network device connected to my computer.. The Vm still using NAT as the host interface is not functioning
[14:39] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip, nothing didnt work
 nut yet
[14:39] <LeoWei> anyone can tell me what the network??
[14:39] <silv3r_m001> hi there
[14:39] <SunnyDP> sounds to me like a CODEC problem like ActionParsnip said
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: do you get an ip address (run ifconfig)
[14:39] <hateball> heatmzzr: ext4 is stable, but the 8.10 kernel doesnt have it. So you'd have to go for 9.04 alpha if you want it
 *not yet
[14:39] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  I have Conection : lo
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> ociugi: go get em
[14:39] <silv3r_m001> it sometimes happens that my hard disk suddenly starts working very vigorously and the computer becomes very slow almost hanged
[14:39] <ociugi> ActionParsnip>: ok i will try
[14:39] <silv3r_m001> why does that happen
[14:39] <mylarry> Hi! How can I add a new repository to apt-get?
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: then the nic is either not detected or down
[14:39] <heatmzzr> hateball; 20 second bootup sounds nice. may wait then until it is stable
[14:40] <deany> what is the ext4 when you format with mkfs.ext4 then (8.10)
[14:40] <quibbler> ActionParsnip: i'm going to logout and in brb
[14:40] <LeoWei> !no-ip
[14:40] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  ipconfig = command not found
[14:40] <SunnyDP> fiftyone:ifconfig
[14:40] <SunnyDP> ipconfig is windows :D
[14:40] <fiftyone> lol
[14:40] <fiftyone> lol
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: try: sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[14:41] <silv3r_m001> ActionParsnip: can u help me on my issue ?
[14:41] <Pirate_Hunter> hi can someone advise me on a good typing tutor?
[14:41] <SunnyDP> Pirate : me too please :D
[14:41] <LeoWei> i setting up no ip in my machine but i dont know what is the name of the network device connected to my computer.. The Vm still using NAT as the host interface is not functioning
[14:41] <fiftyone> nothing
[14:41] <ikonia> LeoWei: eth0
[14:41] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip, nothing
[14:41] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: ifconfig, no ipconfig, ipconfig is windows
[14:42] <scientes> ahh xkill seg faults
[14:42] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip, yea i know my bad lol , ifconfig gives me a large list
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: it wont say anything after up, try ifconfig now
[14:42] <oCean_> silv3r_m001: using 'top' you could see what process is taking up how much cpu. Install "iotop" and use that to see what process is using most io
 i cant find  medibunti in synaptic
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> ociugi: its not that simple
[14:43] <silv3r_m001> oCean_: hmm
[14:43] <SunnyDP> ociugu:follow tye tutorial i sent
[14:43] <perlsyntax_> for pygtk is it python -gtk2-dev ?
[14:43] <LeoWei> ikonia: i use NAT for this vm, does it still eth0?
[14:43] <ociugi> SunnyDP: ok
[14:43] <perlsyntax_> if i am right
[14:43] <fiftyone> i got Eth0 lo and ra0 connections listed here after ifconfig
[14:43] <SunnyDP> yes it does
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> ociugi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[14:43] <oCean_> silv3r_m001: How often does it happen
[14:43] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  lots of information
[14:43] <quibbler> ActionParsnip: same no system sounds
[14:43] <SunnyDP> Leo
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: do you have an ip that fits your networks settings
[14:44] <gabri-shatana> ciao
[14:44] <perlsyntax_> does anyone use pygtk?
[14:44] <SunnyDP> later
[14:44] <silv3r_m001> oCean_: many a times... and like when I leave the computer idle for about 30 mins or so then it suddenly starts
[14:44] <heatmzzr> hateball; how can I tell if I can use 64bit version?
[14:44] <perlsyntax_> i want to make sure i got the right package.
[14:44] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  I am not sure man, basically, I have until now just plugged in and was online instantly, howver, today two different internet cafes and i havent been able to connect to eather.
[14:45] <xaos11> perlsyntax_ what are you trying to do again? compile something?
[14:45] <Jack_Sparrow> heatmzzr If you have over 4 gigs of ram and a cpu that can handle 64 bit.. but 32 is still recommended
[14:45] <xaos11> I run 64 bit
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: well if your network uses 192.168.0.x like many do and you have that ip in your ifconfi output then you are recieving dhcp
[14:45] <hateball> Why would you recommend 32-bit when 64-bit works just fine without nasty PAE hacks?
[14:45] <xaos11> used to have problems with flash etc but now its fine
[14:45] <perlsyntax_> someone told me in here to use libpython-gtk.But i found a package cll pygtk-2-dev
[14:45] <oCean_> heatmzzr: use 'sudo lshw -C cpu' to see what cpu you have
[14:45] <perlsyntax_> call
[14:46] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  I see. Is there some kinda application I can use to search for active connections?
[14:46] <Jack_Sparrow> hateball We have always recommended 32 over 64 .. for flash and other minor issues that new users seemed to have trouble with like chroot etc
[14:46] <LeoWei> ikonia: i use NAT for this vm, does it still eth0? I am using vbox
[14:46] <DarkKnight> Jack_Sparrow; i am tired of this 64 bit thing...got many flash problems....how can i make it 32 bit...do i have to reinstall....i suppose that's a big task
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: ifconfig will show you, if a device fails dhcp you will see a 164.254.x.x ip
[14:47] <silv3r_m001> oCean_: could it be due to somekind of scheduled indexing of files
[14:47] <DarkKnight> Jack_Sparrow; is there nothing simpler
[14:47] <hateball> Jack_Sparrow: Flash and Java are not an issue anymore
[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow> DarkKnight You cant downgrade.. reinstall is recommended
[14:47] <silv3r_m001> oCean_: when it happens the computer almost hangs
[14:47] <heatmzzr> width says 64bit.... is that what i was looking for?
[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow> hateball I do know that, but there are still issues with people on 64 bit
[14:47] <DarkKnight> Jack_sparrow; and i dont want to lose data as well
[14:47] <hateball> Jack_Sparrow: Such as?
[14:48] <oCean_> silv3r_m001: sure, if anything like that is scheduled, like "updatedb", but that should not run that often. See the /etc/cron.daily, cron.hourly et cetera.
[14:48] <Jack_Sparrow> hateball ask in another channel.. this is support.. not 32 v 64 discussion
[14:48] <heatmzzr> hateball: width says 64bit.... is that what i was looking for?
[14:48] <DStrevinas> fiftyone: http://paste.ubuntu.com/. Paste the results of your ipconfig command
[14:48] <Jack_Sparrow> DarkKnight backup /home for a start
[14:48] <DStrevinas> ifconfig
[14:48] <silv3r_m001> oCean_: coz when it happens even running top in konsole wud be difficult
[14:48] <fiftyone> ok
[14:48] <freegoo> hey guy, qemu but it seems to be running slow. is there another program i could use, or any prefromace tips you ncoulnd give me
[14:48] <xaos11> perlsyntax: that one might work, you might as well install them both, it cant hurt to have both packages
[14:48] <fiftyone> let me try because im not online on that machine
[14:48] <silv3r_m001> oCean_: so I just have to press the restart button
[14:48] <fiftyone> i sec
[14:48] <oCean_> silv3r_m001: install iotop. Let it run, and see what pops up
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> freegoo: virtualbox or vmware
[14:49] <cedrichurst> could anyone explain how this could be happening: http://cedric-screencasts.s3.amazonaws.com/UbuntuNoSuchFileError.mov
[14:49] <DarkKnight> Jack_Sparrow; how can i do that without transferring to some other system
[14:49] <dad> ActionParsnip: still the "unable to load Nvidia module when rebooting, I have to go in low-resolution mode...
[14:49] <cedrichurst> sorry for the mov link, btw... it was the only output my screencast tool would support
[14:49] <silv3r_m001> oCean_: E: Couldn't find package iotop
[14:49] <dad> the log says: (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)
[14:49] <Jack_Sparrow> DarkKnight there are lots of ways to backup your system.
[14:50] <DarkKnight> Jack_Sparrow; can you tell me how??
[14:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup
[14:50] <oCean_> !info iotop
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> dad: you may need nvidia-glx-173-kernel-source
[14:50] <hateball> heatmzzr: yeah

[14:50] <hateball> !pastebin | heatmzzr
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> heatmzzr: uuse pastebin
[14:51] <mustangg1> hey the chan.. Q: Is there a similar linux util in ubuntu as the MS dxdiag, where it can test various basic settings for audio/video, etc..?
[14:51] <dad> 173, not 177!!
[14:51] <hateball> heatmzzr: It's up to you really. Use 64-bit which works perfectly fine for me and many others, or hold on to old technology and mess about with PAE kernels...
[14:52] <danina> ciao
[14:52] <dad> ActionParsnip: nvidia-173-kernel-source was already installed
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> dad: well we pulled 177 and installed 173
[14:52] <dad> yep
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> ok thats cool, when it installed did it compile the nvidia kernel?
[14:52] <dad> but the problem was the same with 177
[14:52] <heatmzzr> hateball: I just wanted to be sure i could run 64bit. Which by the looks of things here I can... thanks man
[14:52] <dad> I don't know
[14:53] <dad> I haven't pais attention
[14:53] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/117287/ thank you BTW :)
[14:54] <hateball> heatmzzr: also, the live-cd will tell you right away if it doesnt like your cpu :)
[14:54] <calamari> lol.. if by "tell" you mean.. it just wont work, then yes
[14:54] <cedrichurst> so i feel like i'm missing something pretty basic, but it's driving me crazy
[14:54] <cedrichurst> i'm trying to launch a file called "install"
[14:55] <cedrichurst> i ls and the is in the pwd
[14:55] <jiffe92> when doing an apt-get, if it says size mismatch on the deb, where is it pulling that size from?
[14:55] <cedrichurst> i do ./install and i get a "no such file or directory" message
[14:55] <jiffe92> this is from our local repository and I just repackaged that package with some additional files
[14:55] <cedrichurst> not "invalid permissions", but "no such file or directory"
[14:55] <jiffe92> suppose I could just change the version
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: ok try this: sudo mv /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interfaces_old
[14:55] <Jack_Sparrow> heatmzzr Problems installing from Livecd... At start or install screen, press F6 and remove splash and quiet,  if that does not work do it again but now also add noapic acpi=off before the -- on the command line
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: and reboot
[14:55] <cedrichurst> but the file is clearly there
[14:55] <pavel_> $this->_output->setPlaceholder('linkbar', $tpl);
[14:55] <cedrichurst> what could be causing this?
[14:56] <heatmzzr> hateball: it will like it fine, gonna try 64bit and see how it goes.. I think april is scheduled release date of stable ext4
[14:56] <Like> atento a.k.a CQ
[14:56] <Like> buenos dias
[14:56] <n8tuser> cedrichurst-> which file is there?
[14:56] <hateball> heatmzzr: you can always convert to ext4 later on anyhow
[14:56] <heatmzzr> besides fresh install I will be completely done with WINBLOWS
[14:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !es > Like
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: that will blank you network config which you can re-establish next boot
[14:57] <cedrichurst> n8tuser: take a look at this screen capture... http://cedric-screencasts.s3.amazonaws.com/UbuntuNoSuchFileError.mov
[14:57] <oCean_> cedrichurst: see the first line of the "install" The interpreter (e.g. !#/bin/bash) might be wrong
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: the file is only renamed so we can roll back
[14:57] <heatmzzr> yeah, will install 64bit this evening.. cant now.. laptop I use for work
[14:57] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  ok cool thanks alot man.
[14:57] <cedrichurst> oCean_: it's a binary file
[14:57] <Shadoweaver> Hello everyone, I have a question.  Does xubuntu need a c++ compiler to run programs c++ programing or does vi handle it?
[14:58] <Jack_Sparrow> !compile
[14:58] <Like> yea
[14:58] <calamari> you dont need a compiler to run programs, you need a compiler to COMPILE programs shadoweaver
[14:58] <Like> :))
[14:58] <oCean_> cedrichurst: ok. the mov was cool though :)
[14:59] <n8tuser> cedrichurst-> but the file it may need is not on the current dir?
[14:59] <Shadoweaver> Ok, I am a bit confused.  I am new to xubuntu and trying to learn how to program in c++.  What is ment by compiling the program?
[14:59] <dad> that's hopeless.;;; I GIVE UP....
[15:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Shadoweaver Please see the link from Ubottu above on compiling
[15:00] <Shadoweaver> ok.
[15:00] <Jack_Sparrow> dad is this a 6600 nvidia?
[15:00] <cedrichurst> oCean_: yeah, that's possible
[15:00] <n8tuser> cedrichurst-> it uses its own jre? so that maybe the case
[15:00] <dad> nope, a nForce610/GF7050
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Shadoweaver: source code is plain text that coders write to make a program work. They use common libraries and functions to work. If you want to compile you will make a binary (or program) which your system can run to make the program work
[15:00] <datakid> hey, I set focus=strict under metacity in gconf-editor on unbuntu intrepid...do I need to restart gnome for it to take effect?
[15:00] <cedrichurst> n8tuser: yeah, it does use its own jre
[15:01] <Jack_Sparrow> dad sorry, have not seen or dealt with one of those
[15:01] <cedrichurst> is there a way to determine which file it's looking for
[15:01] <xahuar>  /msg NickServ identify noporolo
[15:01] <dad> and what about a GF9400GT?
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> Shadoweaver: as a basic user you cacn probably install pre-compiled packages (the stuff you apt-get) and achieve the same end
[15:01] <Jack_Sparrow> xahuar go change your password NOW
[15:01] <oCean_> cedrichurst: do a "file ./install" Does that return something like "executable" ?
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> Jack_Sparrow: d'oh ;0
[15:02] <Like> np
[15:02] <xaos11> I liek 64 bit
[15:02] <dad> This computer had a GF9400GT in PCI Xpress, with a ECS motherboard and a nForce610/GF7050 on-board chipset
[15:02] <Like> i be nedd that
[15:02] <Jack_Sparrow> ActionParsnip not like most of us have not made that same mistake
[15:02] <datakid> Jack_Sparrow, i did it this morning, doh
[15:02] <datakid> annoying
[15:03] <oCean_> cedrichurst: use "strace -f ./install 2>/tmp/debug.txt" to trace the execution. Output of strace is in /tmp/debug.txt. Search that file for the missing file(name)
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Like /join #ubuntu-es           or /join #ubuntu-pt               or /join #ubuntu-br
[15:03] <LeoWei> !pastebin
[15:03] <cedrichurst> elf 32-bit lsb executable, intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped
[15:03] <ActionParsnip> Jack_Sparrow: true
[15:04] <Like> Jack_Sparrow,  how make mf :)
[15:05] <Shadoweaver> Jack_Sparrow:  Thanks for the info.  That helps.  But do I really need to compile a program that I am writing in order to run it?
[15:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Shadoweaver Yes
[15:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Shadoweaver unless bash script or something.. but yes
[15:05] <sriramoman> i have to run <timidity `locate tempest`> but certain directories returned by locate command create errors if spaces exist in their names. where am i supposed to insert the quotes?
[15:05] <Chousuke> there's a C interpreter too
[15:05] <Chousuke> but usually you wouldn't use such a thing.
[15:06] <adubz> i want to have a drive mount everytime ubuntu loads instead of having to issue the mount command
[15:06] <adubz> can someone help me with this
[15:06] <jrib> adubz: filesystem?
[15:06] <adubz> yes
[15:06] <oCean_> adubz: add the drive/partition to /etc/fstab file
[15:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Shadoweaver You may want to spend some time in CC++ channel or one of the many others
[15:06] <nextma> #openobject
[15:06] <Like> :=))
[15:06] <Dillizar> xsensors
[15:06] <Shadoweaver> I am sure that my tutorial I found on it will explain any further ANNOYING question I may have.  If I have any questions that are not covered in my tutorial can you help?
[15:07] <jrib> adubz: I mean *what* filesystem?
[15:07] <Dillizar> !xsensors
[15:07] <Shadoweaver> cc++ channel?
[15:07] <xaos11> lol
[15:07] <Dillizar> !sensors-x
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib morning..  can you talk with Like.. he is from Uraguay and seems to be having language issues
[15:07] <adubz> its a slave hard drive i added
[15:07] <Dillizar> !x-sensors
[15:07] <cedrichurst> oCean_: http://rifers.org/paste/show/8773
[15:07] <zleap> erm
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !irc
[15:07] <adubz> my master comes up and this one comes up as scsi device annd i cant click on it when OS loads
[15:07] <zleap> adubz try fdisk -l to get the correct partition
[15:07] <oCean_> adubz: see next link for wiki page on fstab https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[15:07] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: unfortunately I was just about to walk out the door
[15:08] <zleap> a normal hdd should mount surely
[15:08] <Dillizar> why x-sensors are not working for me
[15:08] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib np
[15:08] <cedrichurst> oCean_: should i just install coreutils, then?
[15:08] <adubz> i know the correct name b/c i can mount its /dev/sdb1
[15:08] <Ascavasaion> what port (/dev/something) does  an infrared port use?
[15:08] <zleap> ok
[15:08] <cedrichurst> i thought that came with ubuntu out the box
[15:08] <Shadoweaver> not right now of course.  I guess I could always come back here.
[15:08] <adubz> not sure of the parameters i add in but ill ssee what i can do with fstab
[15:08] <oCean_> cedrichurst: that's a start
[15:08] <Shadoweaver> Thanks ubottu
[15:08] <n8tuser> cedrichurst-> perhaps read up on how to install that..
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Shadoweaver ubottu is a bot that we trigger to present factoids to users in channel
[15:09] <cedrichurst> will do
[15:09] <oCean_> cedrichurst: indeed. coreutils, and try again
[15:09] <adubz> /dev/sdb1       /media/tb       auto    rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0     <--- does that look good that is the line  i added to fstab
[15:10] <jrib> adubz: depends on the answer to my question, but now I must go...
[15:10] <cedrichurst> sudo apt-get install coreutils -> "coreutils is already the newest version"
[15:10] <cedrichurst> is there an internationalized version of coreutils i need to install
[15:11] <Like> how make a file into the c++ chanel
[15:11] <cedrichurst> the langpack
[15:11] <xaos11> yay firefox finally in the repository
[15:11] <oCean_> adubz: the third field (where you specify 'auto') should represent a filesystemtype. like ext3, ntfs ...
[15:12] <Shadoweaver> Jack_Sparrow:  Sorry annoying question,  what is a "bot"?
[15:12] <Dillizar> i have problems with my totem! An error occurred Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[15:12] <quibbler> my system sounds in hardy are no longer working.....however sound in general is fine...could anyone shed some light  as to why?
[15:12] <xaos11> Shadoweaver: it's a program that submits automated replies
[15:12] <xaos11> !bot
[15:13] <oCean_> adubz: and your line should end "0 0", not only "0" - each line contains 6 fields.
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Shadoweaver silly software program pretending it is a human...  :)   scripted user perhaps..
[15:13] <adubz> k im giong to reboot
[15:13] <Shadoweaver> Oh.  Ok.  I get it!  Thanks.
[15:13] <adubz> ill come back and let you guys now how it worked
[15:13] <oCean_> adubz: not necessary
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[15:13] <adubz> oCean what do you mean
[15:13] <oCean_> adubz: type "mount -a"
[15:13] <adubz> how can i test then
[15:14] <Jack_Sparrow> oCean_ Still nice to know when something worked..
[15:14] <oCean_> adubz: that's what happens each boot sequence
[15:14] <Like> upgrade grub dont work
[15:14] <Jack_Sparrow> adubz yes.. run mount -a
[15:14] <Dillizar> !totem
[15:14] <Dillizar> !codecs
[15:14] <Like> totem have the codec
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Like we need full and complete questions and your language barrier seems to be a problem here
[15:15] <H8_Machine> I have a problem- on my kernel <IP_ADDRESS> in 8.10, after installing nvidia-glx-180 from repos, glx module won't load at start, because xserver is using xorg.conf.failsafe all the time
[15:15] <H8_Machine> any solution?
[15:15] <Like> wll im reading the licences today
[15:15] <adubz> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
[15:15] <Like> sorry mf Jack_Sparrow
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> H8_Machine Where did you get that kernel.  running jaunty perhaps?
[15:15] <Dillizar> like use google translator pls :) its the best
[15:16] <oCean_> adubz: what did you specify for filesystem in /etc/fstab? You had 'auto'. I told you to change
[15:16] <H8_Machine> Jack_Sparrow: i compiled it myself
[15:16] <adubz> /dev/sdb1       /media/1.5tb       vfat    default 0 0
[15:16] <oCean_> adubz: is the directory /media/1.5tb existing?
[15:17] <adubz> yes
[15:17] <adubz> i had to create it
[15:17] <adubz> in order to attempt mount -a
[15:17] <Ascavasaion> Whoever invented Infrared... hope you dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!
[15:17] <CyL> How do I restore windows MBR after installing ubuntu?
[15:17] <MuffloN^> How do I unhide a NTFS partition in Linux?
[15:17] <oCean_> adubz: and "fdisk -l /dev/sdb" tells you that there is 1 partition /dev/sdb1 with vfat?
[15:17] <MuffloN^> lilo is my boot manager
[15:17] <Boohbah_> CyL: if you restore the windows MBR you won't be able to boot ubuntu. are you sure you want to do that?
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> CyL restoring mbr will kill ubuntu grub..
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> CyL are you just trying to get windows included in your grub menu?
[15:18] <oCean_> Ascavasaion: that's not nice
[15:18] <adubz> /dev/sdb1               1      182401<PHONE_NUMBER>    7  HPFS/NTFS
[15:18] <CyL> Boohbah_, Jack_Sparrow: I can still run from the live cd and install grub on ubuntuś partition
[15:18] <adubz> yes
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> MuffloN^ What release of ubuntu are you using
[15:19] <Ascavasaion> oCean_: Ja well... too bad for him.
[15:19] <Shadoweaver> !c++ tutorial
[15:19] <oCean_> adubz: use ntfs-3g for filesystem type in your /etc/fstab
[15:19] <MuffloN^> 8.10
[15:19] <adubz> k
[15:19] <Jack_Sparrow> CyL install grub on the mbr of the bootable sda drive
[15:19] <Dillizar> i have installed flash player 10! but when i open my firefox its showing that i have 9! how can i fix this
[15:19] <CyL> Jack_Sparrow: nope, I'd really like to restore windows MBR... I must use windows in work, I installed ubuntu to give it a try, but every time I start my computer i gets on ubuntu
[15:19] <Jack_Sparrow> MuffloN^ and why lilo?  we use grub by default
[15:20] <adubz> mount -a ran fine
[15:20] <MuffloN^> Jack_Sparrow: Because it's easier to manager with Linux Live
[15:20] <adubz> let me see if drive is accessible
[15:20] <oCean_> adubz: ok!
[15:20] <Jack_Sparrow> CyL are you in ubuntu now.. or on livecd
[15:20] <SunnyDP> Dzillar: in a terminal window type: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:20] <CyL> Jack_Sparrow: besides this, I think it is easier to include ubuntu in windows boot menu
[15:20] <CyL> Jack_Sparrow: ubuntu
[15:20] <Dillizar> SunnyDP, k but i think it will not do any thing
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> CyL then you need help from the windows people on editing their boot.ini
[15:21] <CyL> Jack_Sparrow: that would be allright for me to do
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> CyL and it is not easier
[15:21] <adubz> nice it appears all is working now
[15:21] <tuna-fish> Hi. How can I change the language that an user starts with when more than one language is installed?
[15:21] <MuffloN^> Well, Jack_Sparrow: Got any ideas?
[15:21] <oCean_> adubz: that's how we like it :)
[15:22] <Dillizar> SunnyDP, flashplugin-nonfree is already the newest version.
[15:22] <adubz> yep thanks man
[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> MuffloN^ Nope
[15:22] <CyL> Jack_Sparrow: isn't kind of a virtual package that restores windows MBR?
[15:22] <SunnyDP> Dizilar: now type: sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:22] <SunnyDP> and then
[15:22] <SunnyDP> Dizilar: now type: sudo apt-get update
[15:23] <SunnyDP> and after that try the flashplugin afgain
[15:23] <Jack_Sparrow> CyL we used to have ms0sys or something, but I think it was pulled.. just use a windows boot disk and get help from the windows channel
[15:23] <LeoWei> hat the command to restart any app?
[15:23] <LeoWei> !restart
[15:23] <LeoWei> what*
[15:23] <jeeves_Moss> how do I set up BlueProx?  I can't get it to lock my system with my phone
[15:23] <oCean_> MuffloN^: unhide ?
[15:23] <MuffloN^> Yes, it gets set as hidden it seems
[15:23] <SunnyDP> LeoWei the kill command ?
[15:23] <CyL> Jack_Sparrow: I don't have a wind boot disk, since I'm on a laptop without floppy...
[15:23] <Odd-rationale> LeoWei: send it the SIGUP signal?
[15:24] <LeoWei> kill command? i just awnt to restart my no-ip application
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> CyL windows cd will  work
[15:24] <CyL> Jack_Sparrow: I'm almost sure that there such a package, as I recall doing this trough a package in the past
[15:24] <oCean_> MuffloN^: When, where... ? "sudo fdisk -l" does not show your partitions?
[15:24] <SunnyDP> LeoWei: close and restart
[15:24] <MuffloN^> oCean_: Oh it shows it, and it can be seen and used in Linux
[15:25] <MuffloN^> Too bad booting Windows 7 and trying to use it there, is a no go
[15:25] <cedrichurst> oCean_ & n8tuser: so i verified that i have coreutils installed, and i have the /usr/share/locale-langpacks/en langpack installed
[15:25] <MuffloN^> /dev/sda2            5737       13288    60653564   17  Hidden HPFS/NTFS
[15:25] <cedrichurst> but how do i get the en_US-UTF8 langpack
[15:25] <oCean_> MuffloN^: ow ok. And that is Linux' fault?
[15:25] <MuffloN^> oCean_: Actually, yes, it's lilo's fault
[15:26] <MuffloN^> or well, partly my fault as well
[15:26] <oCean_> MuffloN^: :)
[15:26] <MuffloN^> But it's still partly lilo's as well, I'm not alone! :P
[15:26] <SunnyDP> what's a Mufflon ? :D
[15:26] <n8tuser> cedrichurst-> what does the site say about the need to use coreutils?
[15:26] <MuffloN^> A mufflon is a sheep
[15:27] <cedrichurst> n8tuser: which site?
[15:27] <DarkKnight> i have gzip installed but i am still unable to access a gzip file...
[15:27] <Symmetria> question, if I need to rebuild my kernel from scratch, how do I extract my current kernel config so I dont have to go through and reconfigure the new kernel from step 1
[15:27] <n8tuser> cedrichurst-> whereever you downloaded that program you're attempting to install
[15:27] <Symmetria> I've done it before I just cant remeber how
[15:27] <oCean_> cedrichurst: sorry, no clue to that langpack..
[15:27] <cedrichurst> n8tuser: oh, it doesn't
[15:27] <cedrichurst> it's officially only supported on rhel & suse
[15:28] <DarkKnight> i have gzip installed but i am still unable to access a gzip file...can anyone help
[15:28] <n8tuser> cedrichurst-> then why are you asking it here in ubuntu?
[15:28] <IcyPolecat> hiya, can anyone help with an ATI dual head config problem - running Intrepid 32bit
[15:28] <LeoWei> there is no software running and cannot close and restart SunnyDP
[15:28] <Pici> DarkKnight: How are you trying to access it?
[15:28] <cedrichurst> n8tuser: bc ubuntu is the distribution i'm using currently, and i'm trying to avoid installing rhel or suse
[15:29] <oCean_> MuffloN^: well, were are the lilo addicts when you need'em. What could lilo've done to that partition?
[15:29] <DarkKnight> Pici; i just clicked on the folder and tried opening it and it says archive type not supported
[15:29] <n8tuser> cedrichurst -> i suggest you read up from their web site and find out whats needed to run it on diff distros
[15:29] <c0rrupt0r> I am having audio problems with ubuntu intrepid. I don't believe I am a member of the audio group. I have executed the command "groups" in terminal and here is what i get: c0rrupt0r adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare ..What shall I do or how to become a member of the audio Group
[15:29] <MuffloN^> oCean_: Flag it as hidden
[15:29] <MuffloN^> There is a fdisk command for this
[15:30] <MuffloN^> To change the partition type
[15:30] <MuffloN^> BUT WHAT THE HECK IS IT
[15:30] <Pici> DarkKnight: Perhaps its not really gzipped. Ubuntu has support for gzipped files out of the box.
[15:30] <cedrichurst> n8tuser: ok, thanks
[15:30] <mandragora22> hi can anyone help me saving my system?
[15:30] <cedrichurst> i think i have a lead on the langpack thing
[15:30] <Pici> DarkKnight: If you want to try from a terminal. You can do: gunzip file.gz
[15:30] <n8tuser> MuffloN^ -> on the fdisk menu   choose m  for help
[15:31] <DarkKnight> Pici; actually i backed up my home directory... and i just wanted to see it

[15:37] <dhruvasagar> hey guys, is there some way to filter out messages only from a particular user in a channel in IRC ?
[15:37] <bryant> How can you tell if Ubuntu is using a proprietary driver?
[15:37] <ikonia> dhruvasagar: depends on your client
[15:37] <ikonia> bryant: for what device ?
[15:37] <ikonia> bryant: system->administration->hardware driver gui
[15:38] <dhruvasagar> ikonia: I am using chatzilla, which one are you using?
[15:38] <ikonia> dhruvasagar: irssi
[15:38] <dhruvasagar> ikonia: so can we filter?
[15:38] <ikonia> dhruvasagar: check your client documents
[15:38] <ikonia> dhruvasagar: I'm sure you can

[15:44] <ricky_clarkson> I have a wonky X configuration for some reason, and would like to stop X.
[15:44] <ricky_clarkson>  /etc/init.d/gdm stop says [ OK ], but does nothing.
[15:44] <annie> ikonia :
[15:44] <ricky_clarkson> What should I do?
[15:44] <annie> hi sir
[15:44] <david__> hello
[15:44] <ricky_clarkson> I am ssh'd into the machine running these commands.
[15:44] <annie> How can i install data 1x driver
[15:44] <david__> i'm looking for help with my ubuntu 8.10 system
[15:45] <david__> i have problems with the atheros pci wireless card
[15:45] <david__> i've tried everything on all the forums and I still can't get it to work
[15:45] <ali1234> if i deleted a system file, how can i restore it with apt/synaptic?
[15:46] <bjay> ricky_clarkson: sudo /etc....
[15:46] <ali1234> david__: what card?
[15:46] <oCean_> Ascavasaion: See next link on bluetooth setup: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup.
[15:46] <david__> thanks - atheros AR242X
[15:47] <orifice_work> ugh
[15:47] <ricky_clarkson> bjay: Yes, I did that.
[15:47] <david__> right now I'm using a wired connection to get online
[15:47] <orifice_work> I've imaged a drive onto a larger drive
[15:47] <ricky_clarkson> bjay: Bah.  I believed I had.  An error would be nice.
[15:47] <ricky_clarkson> Thanks.
[15:48] <ali1234> david__: did you try installing linux-backports-modules-intrepid?
[15:48] <orifice_work> I've imaged a drive to a larger drive but grub won't start even if I install it manually after (w/ grub -> root (hd0,0) -> setup(hd0).  The process seems to proceed fine though.  Is there a step I'm missing
[15:48] <annie> ikonia: r u der
[15:48] <jacobi> any experts here on connecting a linksys router to a verizon westell dsl moden while running Ubuntu 8.04?
[15:48] <david__> i did try installing the backports module
[15:48] <david__> that didn't work
[15:48] <annie> can any one help me to connect my BSNL data 1x mobile dial up modem
[15:48] <david__> should i do it again
[15:48] <ali1234> david__: did it actually use the module ath5k?
[15:49] <annie> can any one help me to connect my BSNL data 1x mobile dial up modem
[15:49] <david__> that i don't know
[15:49] <david__> how can I tell if it saw it?
[15:49] <ricky_clarkson> When I start X, it appears corrupt.  Is there something I should run?
[15:49] <ikonia> annie: yes, ask a question
[15:49] <ali1234> david__: check dmesg
[15:49] <ricky_clarkson> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg # doesn't fix it.
[15:49] <david__> I'll do that now
[15:49] <annie> can any one help me to connect my BSNL data 1x mobile dial up modem
[15:50] <dhruvasagar> annie: what problems are you facing?
[15:50] <ikonia> annie: I don't even know what that kit is, let me google it, I suspect it's a win modem
[15:50] <annie> ikonia:  how can i install driver
[15:50] <ali1234> david__: there are two different drivers for atheros cards, ath_pci aka madwifi hal which is the old driver, and ath5k/ath9k which is the new driver.
[15:50] <dhruvasagar> ikonia: BSNL is a ISP
[15:50] <david__> OKAY
[15:51] <Shadoweaver> I am trying to learn how to use a program language.  C++ seems a bit out of my league.  What language should a beginner to unix start?
[15:51] <annie> dhruvasagar: how can i install driver
[15:51] <annie> i have data 1x Huaie mobile modem
[15:51] <david__> sorry about the caps
[15:51] <david__> I did the dmesg and I see where I tried to use ndiswrapper
[15:51] <ali1234> david__: the old driver isn't really updated much, but the new driver is still not really ready. so you have to try both, and with the new driver you may have to try multiple different versions of it before you find one that works
[15:51] <david__> ouch
[15:51] <david__> so what is the procedure i need to follow?
[15:51] <ikonia> dhruvasagar: ahh thank you
[15:52] <dhruvasagar> annie: how do you connect to your modem?
[15:52] <ali1234> david__: it depends exactly which card you have
[15:52] <dhruvasagar> annie: usb/com ?
[15:52] <annie> Huwawei modem
[15:52] <freegoo> guy what virtual machine software should i run? qume, vmware, xen?? are any faster thwan otherws???
[15:52] <david__> i understand that but are there specific steps I need to follow once I load the backports package
[15:52] <david__> ?
[15:52] <annie> i have only windows driver
[15:52] <annie> ikonia: i have only windows driver
[15:52] <ali1234> david__: the backports package didnt work for me
[15:53] <ali1234> david__: for others it does
[15:53] <ikonia> annie: the windows driver is not usable, I'm just trying to find info on the modem
[15:53] <Shadoweaver> Is bash an easy language to learn?  If so where does one start?
[15:53] <david__> i understand
[15:53] <dhruvasagar> annie: drivers are for a modem, ubuntu should be able to support it out of the box in my opinion
[15:53] <dhruvasagar> annie: have you tried to connect to the modem?
[15:53] <ikonia> Shadoweaver: not really an ubuntu question
[15:53] <Aiot> Hey everyone!
[15:53] <Myrth> anyone can recommend mysql gui for ubuntu?
[15:53] <ikonia> Shadoweaver: have a look around the web
[15:53] <ali1234> david__: you can also try compiling the latest ath5k/ath9k drivers from source which gets you a newer one, that did work for me
[15:53] <ikonia> Myrth: mysql-admin
[15:54] <david__> i have tried wpa_supplicant, wicd,  ndiswrapper, and every other thing I could find
[15:54] <dhruvasagar> Myrth you can install MySQL admin package
[15:54] <ali1234> david__: however there's no point messing around with that unless you know for sure which driver you are currently testing :)
[15:54] <Myrth> is that the best available?
[15:54] <david__> LOL
[15:54] <Guest98514> hello ppl, does anyone know any free sms gateway?
[15:54] <david__> that makes sense
[15:54] <Guest98514> provider?
[15:54] <dhruvasagar> Myrth: check out synaptic, it is available indeed
[15:54] <jiffe92> why am I seeing this when that version of the package doesn't even exist on the repository?  'Get:7 http://repository.jiffe.com hardy/main pamldap 1.8.2-2ubuntu2 [99.5kB]'
[15:55] <annie> ikonia: the modem name is Huawei EC325
[15:55] <Shadoweaver> Ok.  Your right.  Sorry.  But I do have a hard drive that I would like to mount to xubuntu but, I don't know how.  Can anyone help with this?
[15:55] <Aiot> I'm having a problem getting the Nvidia drivers working on a Dell xps m1340 with a Nvidia 9500m card.  If I install any of the restricted drivers and reboot I get a black screen that says "No Screens" and I cant start X.  Any help would be awsome
[15:55] <jiffe92> I did an apt-get update, but this didn't seem to fix it
[15:55] <Guest98514> or such a gateway that I can install on ubuntu?
[15:55] <annie> dhruvasagar: Yes i had tried
[15:55] <david__> should I disable the support for atheros 5XXX in my hardware drivers section?
[15:55] <ali1234> david__: probably
[15:56] <ali1234> david__: is that from ndiswrapper?
[15:56] <dhruvasagar> Aiot: you should try and installing the drivers from synaptic instead of the hardware section....
[15:56] <david__> i think so
[15:56] <Aiot> I have tried it both ways
[15:56] <Aiot> I have reinstalled Ubuntu 8.10 7 times now
[15:56] <Aiot> have also tried to use the beta 180.29 driver
[15:56] <dhruvasagar> Aiot: what version Nvidia drivers did you install?
[15:57] <annie> dhruvasagar: i dont know the driver is detected or not
[15:57] <dhruvasagar> hmm
[15:57] <Aiot> I have tried the 177, 172 and the 180.29
[15:57] <Aiot> err 173
[15:57] <david__> okay - i've deactivated the support for the atheros card in the hardware drivers section
[15:58] <Aiot> no matter which ones I try, once I reboot I cant startx
[15:58] <ali1234> david__: is the backports module still installed?
[15:58] <dhruvasagar> annie: hmmm I am not very much aware about it sorry, try here you should get help
[15:58] <annie> ikonia: did u found any thing
[15:58] <ikonia> annie: nope, not yet
[15:59] <Aiot> would the no screens error be a xorg.config issue?
[16:00] <dhruvasagar> annie: try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[16:00] <Aiot> I have tried to let nvidia config the file and also the defualt from the restricted drivers
[16:00] <annie> dhruvasagar: i m very very new to linux
[16:00] <ali1234> david__: you need to first disable the old driver: put a line "blacklist ath_pci" into /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-local
[16:00] <ali1234> david__: then install the backports module and reboot
[16:00] <ali1234> david__: after reboot do "sudo modprobe ath5k" and check dmesg
[16:01] <ali1234> david__: you might need to use ath9k instead
[16:01] <dhruvasagar> annie: its alright, you'll make it :)
[16:01] <ali1234> david__: if it still doesn't work try the daily snapshot
[16:01] <fr00d> Hello!
[16:01] <annie> dhruvasagar: can i get the manual of ubuntu as i have just migrated from windows
[16:02] <fr00d> Do I have to be worried about this suspicious file found by chkrookit? /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-xen/volatile/.mounted
[16:02] <dhruvasagar> annie: you should just search in google....
[16:02] <Pici> annie: https://help.ubuntu.com/
[16:02] <annie> dhruvasagar: i had but i ddnt got the manual
[16:02] <ricky_clarkson> When I do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, I don't get asked any graphics questions, only keyboard ones.
[16:02] <Aiot> Anyone a Video card expert ;-)
[16:03] <dhruvasagar> annie: you should try System->Help & Support
[16:03] <annie> Pici: can i get manual der
[16:03] <annie> dhruvasagar: i cantunderstand that help
[16:03] <dhruvasagar> annie: why is that?
[16:04] <Shadoweaver> Hey, maybe someone could explain why my copy of xubuntu runs like a herd of turtles stampeding through penut butter and the the response time is a force to be reckond with?
[16:04] <Aiot> Are there any Ubuntu shops you can send them your laptop and pay to have it installed and working with all the drivers?
[16:04] <david__> sorry - my son called
[16:04] <annie> dhurvasagar: coz one of my frd had done all these
[16:04] <david__> thanks alil234
[16:05] <annie> dhurvasagar: so i m able to talk
[16:05] <fr00d> apt-file search and dpkg -S didn't find the file /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-xen/volatile/.mounted whose file is that?
[16:05] <david__> I'm going to follow your instructions now
[16:05] <annie> dhurvasagar: even i dont know to install
[16:05] <annie> dhurvasagar: i nill in linux.
[16:06] <ali1234> david__: good luck
[16:06] <Aiot> lol @ shadoweaver
[16:06] <AwaDoV> hi
[16:06] <dhruvasagar> annie: that's not a problem
[16:06] <david__> blacklist ath_pci was already in the file
[16:06] <Pici> annie: Like I said. https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/index.html is a good place to start.
[16:06] <Wizzup> Aiot:
[16:06] <dhruvasagar> annie: you will get to know things
[16:06] <Shadoweaver> Any suggestions?
[16:06] <annie> dhurvasagar: where is control panel
[16:06] <david__> I'm install the backports module now
[16:06] <Wizzup> Why not install it yourself, this channel is here for support and help. I am sure you will manage to install it
[16:07] <Wizzup> annie: What exactly do you want to change. Also, what Desktop envoriment are you on. Do you have Gnome or KDE?
[16:07] <jiffe92> I have a program I want to make a package of, it is a commercial program that has an install process, I'll need to be able to track what files are created, anyone know a good way to do this?
[16:08] <Aiot> I have it installed however I CAN NOT GET the nvidia driver installed.  I actually just got done doing all the updates on a fresh install of 8.10 (8th time reinstalling).  Every time I try to enable the nvidia drivers and reboot I get welcomed with a Black screen letting me know it cant startx
[16:08] <jiffe92> the machine I am installing it on is not an active machine so determining any new files would probably be good enough
[16:08] <AwaDoV> hi
[16:08] <AwaDoV> how i can make the taskbar bigger
[16:08] <Wizzup> Aiot: System -> Administration -> Hardware drivers
[16:09] <AwaDoV> ?
[16:09] <SunnyDP> awadov
[16:09] <SunnyDP> right click on it
[16:09] <david__> i reinstalled the backports for intrepid
[16:09] <dhruvasagar> annie: Sytem menu has most of the administrative
[16:09] <Wizzup> Oh right. Aiot, ehm. So the actual config does not work?
[16:09] <SunnyDP> and go to properties
[16:09] <david__> now I'm going to reboot and rejoin this chat - thanks
[16:09] <Aiot> Wizzup: if I activate one of those drivers (even the reccomended ones) and reboot I cant startx
[16:09] <BTuser93> hi
[16:09] <SunnyDP> change pixel size :D
[16:09] <SunnyDP> right ???
[16:09] <Bolin> How do i recieve files via bluetooth from another bluetooth device?
[16:09] <Wizzup> Aiot: I see... Ehm. Did you try sudo nvidia-xconfig before logging out?
[16:09] <BTuser93> #ubuntu-fr
[16:10] <Myrtti> Bolin: if you're in Ubuntu, install gnome-bluetooth and use the gnome-obex-server to receive
[16:10] <AwaDoV> noooooooooooo
[16:10] <BTuser93> why i can not go to unbuntu-fr??
[16:10] <Shadoweaver> Does anyone else have problems with xubuntu locking up on them?
[16:10] <Aiot> Wizzup: no, but I did run it once I couldnt startx
[16:10] <macman> whats the best website to find my up and down speed of my dsl ?
[16:10] <Pici> BTuser93: type: /join #ubuntu-fr
[16:10] <Bolin> Myrtti: Will try that .. thanks
[16:10] <[nrx]> hi all. After a recent update, none of my multimedia works. I get the usual startup sound when Ubuntu launches however, if i want to view a video file or listen to music (local or streamed) ubuntu hangs (I can't change windows, launch or close but mouse works). Can anyone suggest a resolution?
[16:10] <profanephobia> whats it called when i want to workstations to boot from a image on a ubuntu server, and can it be done without the use of hdds?
[16:10] <annie> dhurvasagar: there is no option for driver installation
[16:11] <Aiot> it reconfig'd my xorg file however it still couldnt startx
[16:11] <BTuser93> no it s not ok
[16:11] <BTuser93> :-(
[16:11] <Myrtti> BTuser93: do you get some error message?
[16:11] <trygg> i can mount a hdd anywhere, including within my home folder right?
[16:11] <Wizzup> Aiot: And what did it output?
[16:11] <BTuser93> no i dont thing
[16:11] <Aiot> wizzup: the xorg file?
[16:11] <Wizzup> No, nvidia-xconfig
[16:11] <Wizzup> Did it say it was succesful?
[16:12] <abc> im running ubuntu on a netbook with a 9" screen. sometimes windows are too large all i can't see the whole window. i have to scroll up and down to see the full window.. any fix for that for the window to resize automatically?
[16:12] <Bolin> Myrtti: I installed it but how do i start it?
[16:12] <Aiot> wizzup: let me activate the driver and sudo run the config.  I'll tell you extactly.  Worst case I just reinstall for  a9th time
[16:12] <Wizzup> Aiot: I am sure you can disable the drivers without reinstalling
[16:13] <Myrtti> Bolin: you should get an entry to your applications menu with "Bluetooth File Sharing"
[16:13] <Bolin> There it is.. didnt see it first:)
[16:13] <Aiot> Wizzup:  Well I'm not that good with linux to know what to do without a gui
[16:14] <Myrtti> !away > jos-away
[16:14] <hacker_kid> when i create a user with users and groups a home folder isnt created for them
[16:14] <Aiot> Wizzup:  so I just reinstall.  Prolly faster to spend 15 mins reinstalling then poke around tryin to startx without the driver again
[16:14] <Wizzup> Aiot: There is probably an easy way. I'd tell you to google how to deactivate them, but meh.
[16:14] <orifice_work> Under what conditions would grub not be detected on boot after a #grub -> root (hd0,0) -> setup (hd0)  command ?
[16:15] <Aiot> Wizzup: alright, going to activate and sudo nvidia-xconfig
[16:15] <Aiot> 1 sec
[16:15] <Wizzup> Aiot: Let's pray
[16:15] <Jack_Sparrow> orifice_work if sda1 did not contain ubuntu with a /boot folder
[16:15] <Wizzup> Aiot: You might also want to nvidia-settings before logging out
[16:16] <Wizzup> see if it states that you have to enable it
[16:16] <Aiot> Wizzup:  lucky number 8 eh?
[16:16] <Wizzup> Aiot: :p
[16:16] <AwaDoV> my screen resolution is 1024-784 or something like that ... and no thing better although the card on windows support many resolution better ?
[16:17] <Shadoweaver> Can anyone tell me where to find help with my system.  The bot it not much help.
[16:17] <AwaDoV> how i can fix ?
[16:17] <Wizzup> AwaDoV: Did you install the drivers for your video card?
[16:17] <orifice_work> Jack_Sparrow: would grub stage1 at least start though and print a message about not being able to find stage 2 or 1.5 ?
[16:17] <Jack_Sparrow> orifice_work what os is on sda1
[16:18] <Aiot> Wizzup: k activated and ran nvidia-xconfig.  Output some warnings about "No layout specified constructing implicit layout section using screen defualt screen" and "Unable to find corepointer in X configuration, attempting to add new corepointer section"
[16:18] <orifice_work> it's fedora
[16:18] <IcyPolecat> hi again, now seriously need help with ATI dual head config - I've aticonfiged, tried to use the Catalyst control centre and am still stuck with 2 monitors, seperate X sessions (or looks like) and a res of 1024 x 768 on both... HELP PLEASE!!!
[16:18] <orifice_work> it has the same boot structure as ubuntu though
[16:18] <Wizzup> Aiot: Just a sec
[16:18] <Shadoweaver> I went to the help and support and got this bot thing.  It answered some of my questions but did not resolve the ultimate problem.  Can anyone help?
[16:19] <orifice_work> grub in /boot/grub
[16:19] <rootrot> Hi how do i use wget to copy a entire directory from a website

[16:23] <Wizzup> Aiot: Hmmmmm
[16:23] <Shadoweaver> I was told this copy of xubuntu I have would make my computer run better.  I am having more troubles with it than I know how to deal with.
[16:23] <Wizzup> Aiot: Check the xorg.conf
[16:23] <Pici> Shadoweaver: If you would elaborate what sort of issues you are having we may be able to help you.
[16:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Shadoweaver Please ask direct questions.  all on one line.  relating to your problem or issue
[16:23] <calamari> often when something linux runs really slow, i find its because you dont have all the correct drivers installed
[16:23] <Wizzup> Does it have a section screen?
[16:23] <Aiot> Wizzup: I get a xinit: Connection refused (errno 111) and xinit no such process (errno 3)
[16:24] <Wizzup> Aiot: vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:24] <maria> hello
[16:25] <maria> i have a network problem with my newly installed 8.04
[16:25] <Shadoweaver> Well, it loads things at a snails pace.  Every now and then it will lock up.  And when I run ANY program, the keyboard response seems delayed.  Help!
[16:25] <Aiot> Wizzup:  yes it has a screen section
[16:25] <Wizzup> What does it say
[16:25] <Wizzup> ehm, paste at pastebin.com
[16:25] <maria> seems that everytime I restart my PC I have to manually reenter the securtiy WPA to get my internet connection to work
[16:26] <maria> any ideas where the problem lies
[16:26] <profanephobia> i need for my workstations (with no hdds) to boot from an image on the network, can someone point me towards a tutorial to get me started please?
[16:26] <annie> how can iknow dat my hardware is detected or not?
[16:26] <Aiot> Wizzup:  1 sec work calls

[16:26] <Wizzup> ok Aiot

[16:29] <maria> Wizzup...only the Ubuntu machine, i have to manually reenter the WPA

[16:30] <Shadoweaver> When I was running windows 2000, my computer worked fine.  But, my father told me if I used xubuntu 8.10 it would run 10 times faster.  Why does it run slow?
[16:30] <wulonghao> 都是英语我不懂阿
[16:30] <Wizzup> The answer probably lies there
[16:31] <Wizzup> Shadoweaver: Did you set up all drivers, what are comp specs, what tasks are running. What is running slow?
[16:31] <jStefan> I found a bad translation, there is already a suggestion in place in launchpad, but it's been there since 2006-10-11, are there any additional steps needed?
[16:31] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: what are your computer specs?
[16:32] <Wizzup> maria: Also, mind that Ubuntu 8.10 has a new Network Manager. It is quite user friendly. You might want to try that if all else fails. (Not that 8.10 is bad)
[16:32] <fiftyone> guess we dont have alot of gamers here
[16:32] <IcyPolecat> please - can anyone assist?
[16:32] <sathyrion> I'm a small-time gamer
[16:33] <J-Un17> has anyone tried that reactor os?
[16:33] <Shadoweaver> Wizzup, j-Un17:  Well, I have Celeron 533mhz processer with 156mb ram.
[16:33] <maria> Wizzyup...reading you links now
[16:33] <ikonia> J-Un17: is that anything to do with ubuntu ?
[16:33] <Wizzup> Shadoweaver: I think that is below the minial specs Ubuntu specified
[16:33] <Shadoweaver> Just about every program, including the xfce menu take forever to load.
[16:33] <maria> wizzyup...not sure, where is the option to continously try and connect?
[16:33] <genii> Shadoweaver: You need more ram
[16:33] <sathyrion> I run steam source, wow, bf2, gw, left4dead etc..
[16:33] <Wizzup> You might want to try Damn Small Linux instead
[16:34] <annie> how caniknow my usb hard ware is detectedor not
[16:34] <Wizzup> maria: I don't know, I am on 8.10, which has a new network manager
[16:34] <jStefan> Shadoweaver: you would benefit from more memory
[16:34] <tonyyarusso> Shadoweaver: it'ss also possible that you didn't specify enough swap space when you installed.
[16:34] <Shadoweaver> Then why was I told to use this version rather than others
[16:34] <Aiot> Wizzup:  post bin now
[16:34] <Shadoweaver> what is swap space tonyyarusso
[16:34] <tonyyarusso> annie: dmesg will tell you if it sees it being connected at all.
[16:34] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: with those specs, i don't think anyything would run incredibly fast
[16:34] <Wizzup> Aiot: Ok. I hope I can help, I'm not too great with xorg.conf
[16:34] <tonyyarusso> Shadoweaver: Space on the hard drive that is set up to act as a (slower) extension of RAM, also known as virtual memory.
[16:34] <Shadoweaver> I hate windows 2000 but, it seems that it worked better.
[16:34] <Aiot> Wizzup : http://pastebin.com/m5e5c4f01

[16:35] <maria> Wizzyup...bbl
[16:35] <sathyrion> dsl would run ok
[16:35] <Wizzup> ok maria
[16:35] <Wizzup> good luck
[16:35] <Shadoweaver> Oh, kinda like cache?
[16:35] <Aiot> Wizzup:  I couldnt copy and paste becuase its on a laptop with no gui and I dont know how to do it any other way
[16:35] <fiftyone> games, linux, anyone?
[16:35] <tonyyarusso> Shadoweaver: No, the Windows equivalent is the pagefile.
[16:35] <Wizzup> Aiot: That looks alright. Is that all, though?
[16:35] <sathyrion> fiftyone, Yes, What u asking about?
[16:35] <jStefan> I found a bad translation, there is already a suggestion in place in launchpad, but it's been there since 2006-10-11, are there any additional steps needed?
[16:35] <Shadoweaver> Oh "pagefile" ok.  How do I go about doing that?
[16:35] <J-Un17> i would buy a new comp, like a 200 dollar one, or upgrade the mem on it. if you tried to install xp i think it would probubly flip out too\
[16:36] <Myrtti> jStefan: you could try to get it included upstream
[16:36] <Aiot> Wizzup for the scren section
[16:36] <fiftyone> sathyrion,  I am looking for some good linux games, where is the best place to get games for linxu?
[16:36] <Wizzup> Aiot: It looks alright to me. You might want to alternatively google for your card specs + ubuntu X problems
[16:36] <Shadoweaver> Do you think that will fix my problems
[16:36] <mne> Hi, how can I have the OS X exposee effect on gnome using compiz ? There is an expo plugin in compiz, but instead if the OS X expose effect which shows all windows on a desktop (by aligning all windows next to each other so that no window is ontop of another window), the plugin does a different effect
[16:36] <tonyyarusso> !games | fiftyone
[16:36] <jStefan> Myrtti, how would i do that? i was thinking more if a bug should be reported and where?
[16:36] <Wizzup> See if other people had the same problem and have solved it some how

[16:36] <mib_s1zwxgho> Hello friends I had a problem while configuring network settings in Ibex! Can you guys help me out?
[16:36] <IcyPolecat> hi again, now seriously need help with ATI dual head config - I've aticonfiged, tried to use the Catalyst control centre and am still stuck with 2 monitors, seperate X sessions (or looks like) and a res of 1024 x 768 on both... nothing I do seems to affect this and I'm going quietly crazy here. PS if #ubuntu isn't the place to get answers can someone suggest a more appropriate channel?
[16:37] <jiffe92> I have a program I want to make a package of, it is a commercial program that has an install process, I'll need to be able to track what files are created, anyone know a good way to do this?
[16:37] <sathyrion> Linux native games can be found in Add/remove in your Programs menu. Shoothers, puzzles and strategy. Or you can run wine/cedega to get windows titles running
[16:37] <mib_s1zwxgho> Hello friends I had a problem while configuring network settings in Ibex! Can you guys help me out?
[16:37] <Myrtti> jStefan: that's exactly what I mean - launchpad is usually used mainly for ubuntu bugs, but sometimes those bugs aren't transported to the original project.
[16:37] <tonyyarusso> jiffe92: Odds are that you aren't legally allowed to do so.
[16:37] <Shadoweaver> genii I know I need more ram it is just that I currently can't afford to buy it right now.
[16:37] <Aiot> Wizzup:  I have several times.  I guess its back to windows.    Over the past several years I have tried to use linux but I always have Video card issues and I dont know enough to fix them.  I had it all working for a few months however got this new laptop and now .... meh

[16:39] <genii> Shadoweaver: Well, at least the box is operational for now, even if extremely slow
[16:39] <sathyrion> Aiot, Simple to install it. Type in consol: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[16:39] <IcyPolecat> annie: pull up a terminal, plug in the hardware and issue the dmesg command.
[16:39] <Shadoweaver> However, how does one set up the virtual memory?
[16:39] <Wizzup> annie: Your question is very vague
[16:39] <Shadoweaver> True.  But it is aggrivating
[16:39] <mib_s1zwxgho> Hello friends I had a problem while configuring network settings in Ibex! Can you guys help me out?

[16:42] <Wizzup> /var/log/Xorg.0.log or something
[16:42] <Shadoweaver> Hopefully J-Un17 it will help to some extent.
[16:42] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  doing sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 now
[16:42] <shadeslayer> J-Un17: i wont help,rather i cant,i have kubuntu
[16:42] <sathyrion> Aiot, use: sudo apt-get install nvidia-180-modaliases
[16:43] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  k will do
[16:43] <shadeslayer> mib_s1zwxgho: enable DHCP then
[16:43] <Shadoweaver> However, I don't remember having the option of setting up SWAP when I installed xubuntu 2 days ago.
[16:43] <shadeslayer> on your router
[16:43] <J-Un17> shadowweaver: yeah, it's one of those things where you need to fix the hardware before fixing the software, but the swap should help out a lil.
[16:44] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  says it cant find package nvidia-glx-180-modaliases
[16:44] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: when you installed it, remember where it asked about your partitions?
[16:44] <tonyyarusso> Shadoweaver: If you used to automatic "do everything for me" option you would never have seen it.
[16:44] <sathyrion> Aiot, only nvidia-180-modaliases
[16:44] <Shadoweaver> Yea
[16:44] <[gloom]> I just installed Ubuntu 8.10 from the cd iso (kernel 2.6.27-7). All went fine, LAN worked flawless (RTL8101E/RTL8102E). I just ran the update manager, and it installed among other updates, the new kernel (2.6.27-11) and now I got the interface eth0, but it does not detect when the cable is plugged/unplugged. Any idea about what can be doing this??? Thx
[16:44] <tonyyarusso> !lowmem | also check this out Shadoweaver
[16:44] <Shadoweaver> I know.  I am still learning
[16:45] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  k, its done.  should I startx or reboot?
[16:45] <sathyrion> Aiot, reboot
[16:45] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: DO A MANUAL PARTITION THING, ANd in there you should be able to create the swap then the partition for /
[16:45] <Wizzup> Aiot: reboot is always easier

[16:45] <skeebo_> Hi guys, I have an external drive with a FAT32 FS running on my ubuntu 8.10 desktop. I was wondering if there is a tool for ubuntu I can use to defrag my external drive?
[16:46] <shadeslayer> J-Un17: manual partition thing lol
[16:46] <SunnyDP> of course
[16:46] <skeebo_> Or would it be ok to mount my external drive to my windows xp vm and defrag it there?
[16:46] <SunnyDP> juts like any other drive !!!1
[16:46] <Shadoweaver> Oh, I do remember seeing that.  Do you think it would help to mount my other 10 gig hard drive and set it up for just swap?
[16:46] <J-Un17> shadeslayer: i'm technical like that :P
[16:46] <SidGBF> tonyyarusso: I wanted a small paragraph describing it, so I have an idea about wich one I want
[16:46] <cdavis> I got a document scanner working with Intrepid, can someone suggest a good Document Manage application?
[16:46] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  Same thing:  cant startx
[16:46] <cdavis> I want to save nearly everything I receive in paper format
[16:46] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  do I need to remove the 177 driver?
[16:46] <tonyyarusso> SidGBF: In terms of comparing different licenses, your best options are wikipedia and the OSI site.
[16:46] <sathyrion> Aiot, What does the error log say
[16:47] <SidGBF> OSI?

[16:49] <lithixium> LeoWei, Are you using a service like dyndns
[16:49] <LeoWei> lithixium: but dyndns gives sub domain

[16:49] <lithixium> leonel, sorry, wrong username :P
[16:49] <LeoWei> lithixium:  then the domain point to that subdomain

[16:49] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  Datak server error:  No Screens Found
[16:49] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: if it is a usb, i think as long as it's plugged in when you try to re-install it it should come up, it did with mine, almost destroyed my pron :)

[16:50] <lithixium> LeoWei, hmm
[16:50] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: and it does not show up when you try to install it?
[16:50] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  how?
[16:50] <SidGBF> thanks folks
[16:51] <maria> wizzup....its the easybox a801...im almost positive it can do more than 1mbit
[16:51] <maria> but ill look it up to be sure
[16:51] <Wizzup> maria: I more or less meant your actual connection with the provider
[16:51] <maria> oh
[16:51] <IcyPolecat> well thanks everyone - have finally managed to get full res by using the open source driver and xrandr. Not ideal but at least I'm not going crosseyed trying to read giant terminal output.
[16:51] <Wizzup> Not the modem. I was a bit vague I recon
[16:51] <lithixium> LeoWei, without a static IP, I'm not sure what else you can do
[16:51] <maria> yeah...thats 16mbit
[16:51] <Shadoweaver> I thought that when I installed it 2 days ago, I partitioned it.  Guess not.
[16:51] <Tbolt> can anyone help with a sound card issue... i have 8.10 on a Dell xps400 and i can't seem to get the (Sigmatel Stac92xx) sound card's "line in" or "mic" ports to work
[16:51] <sathyrion> Aiot, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[16:51] <maria> Wizzup...the other PC as a strong 16mbit connection from the ISP
[16:51] <Wizzup> maria: Using wifi?
[16:51] <Shadoweaver> But I did find a website that might help.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive
[16:52] <maria> Wizzup...yes
[16:52] <maria> no
[16:52] <maria> #wait
[16:52] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: if you are going to do that, back up all your stuff off of that hard drive then try to re-install it with the manual partition
[16:52] <maria> wizzup...hes cabled
[16:52] <Wizzup> Wifi is generally quite slow, at least slower than cable
[16:52] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: it should show up
[16:52] <Tapout> i hit ctl+-   and it zoomed out, made my font 1/2, how do I increase it?  ctl++ does nothing
[16:52] <J-Un17> shadoweaver: good luck again
[16:52] <LeoWei> lithixium:  then if i use the no-ip i still need to use the subdomain to point to my ip is it?
[16:52] <Tapout> there we go
[16:52] <Tapout> nevermind
[16:52] <J-Un17> time for class, i hate network design/troubleshooting
[16:52] <Shadoweaver> I have nothing on it.  It is still, practically a clean install
[16:52] <maria> Wizzup...the upload bandwidth is 1mbit, same as download.  I am suspecting something to do with a driver setting here
[16:53] <wardt> Tbolt, tried all the sound systems via System>Prefs>Select Multim...?
[16:53] <Wizzup> Possibly... I haven't experienced problem with it alot
[16:53] <maria> wizzup...what terminal commands can i use to "look" at my Wifi NIC
[16:53] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  ran though config.  just did default options.  Rebooting now

[16:53] <Wizzup> And I have to go for now... Good luck
[16:53] <amikrop> Where "Removable Drives And Media" has gone?
[16:54] <lithixium> LeoWei, I would guess so, are you using the free no-ip service?
[16:54] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  ame ussye
[16:54] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  same issue
[16:54] <lithixium> This sounds like something the paid for extra service might accomodate
[16:54] <satansaunt> rh
[16:55] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  when I try to startx it says "Primary device is not PCI (EE) no Devices Detected
[16:55] <Shadoweaver> I can't find my other hard drive.  Do I need to mount it manually and set up partitions or is there a way to mount it without reinstalling?
[16:55] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: I'd confirm that you don't already have swap first (or that the amount you have is insufficient)
[16:55] <Shadoweaver> I don't think so.
[16:56] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: you ok starting a terminal window?
[16:56] <Shadoweaver> Yea
[16:56] <Shadoweaver> Hold one
[16:56] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: ok - pull one up and run the following command - free
[16:56] <amikrop> Where "Removable Drives And Media" has gone?
[16:56] <EvilDennisR> I'm trying to install sun-java5-bin and sun-java5-jre with a non-interactive frontend, however it fails to say "YES" to the license agreement and backs out of the installed. I tried aptitude -R -y -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confdef" -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold" install with no luck -- Any ideas how to get this installed noninteractivly ?
[16:56] <amikrop> I can't find it and I need it.
[16:57] <SlimeyPete> amikrop: it's still in the Places menu. Well, it should be, anyway.
[16:57] <Shadoweaver> Ok its up.  So type "free" then return?
[16:57] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: yup - you're looking for a line that looks something like: Swap:      3903784          0    3903784
[16:57] <LeoWei> lithixium:  yes..then there is this one thing where i use it to redirect to my ip but it did access my router not my lamp server
[16:57] <amikrop> SlimeyPete: Actually, it always was in System->Preferences but now it's absent.
[16:58] <amikrop> Now = Intrepid
[16:58] <Shadoweaver> IcyPolecat:  Ok it states 361420  total  163460  used and 197160 free
[16:58] <Shadoweaver> That is on the swap
[16:58] <amikrop> Where "Removable Drives And Media" has gone?
[16:59] <Shadoweaver> No shared or otherwise
[16:59] <Aiot> Sathyrion:  when I try to run sudo nvidia-xconfig it says "Validation error"  data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  Device section "Configured Video Device" must have a driver line
[16:59] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: well in that case you already have swap and you're using less than half of it so not sure adding more is going to help massively
[16:59] <lithixium> LeoWei, you should be able to set your router up to forward the traffic onto your server
[16:59] <LeoWei> how to set it to point to my LAMP server in vbox?

[17:01] <LeoWei> now that i access xxx.xxx.com it will go to my router
[17:01] <LeoWei> then i need to set my router to point to my LAMP server in vbox
[17:01] <Shadoweaver> 123804 total, 121116 used,  32460 is free
[17:01] <LeoWei> but in vbox itself i was using NAT as host interface is not orking
[17:01] <LeoWei> any threads or ideas on this?
[17:02] <hatten> hello, i wanna move a bunch of files in a bunch of different folders to another folder, renaming the files with their original folders names. Is that possible to do in a quick way with the terminal?
[17:03] <tonyyarusso> hatten: you can probably  do it with 'rename'.
[17:03] <hatten> give me the full command
[17:03] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: yeah as I thought - tbh, adding swap is not going to speed anything up as you'll be thrashing the disk most of the time. I've got to go with the previous recomendation and say you need more RAM - 256MB minimum to get a usable Xubuntu system
[17:03] <tonyyarusso> hatten: a little bit of regex and scripting foo will be required.
[17:03] <hatten> oh
[17:03] <tonyyarusso> hatten: I can give you the pointer, but I'm not going to do the work for you and spoonfeed it to you.
[17:04] <hatten> k
[17:04] <Shadoweaver> I was afraid of that.  So, until I get more RAM, I will be pulling my hair out.  Oh well.
[17:04] <hatten> its like 10 pictures in about 100 folders that i wanna view in the order the folders are in
[17:04] <Shadoweaver> I guess I can live with that.
[17:04] <atharh> hey everyone. I can listen to an mms stream by doing "mplayer url". How do I also simultaneously record it? Thanks.
[17:04] <linduxed> is there a way to easily broadcast the music youre listening to in rhythmbox?
[17:04] <Shadoweaver> But I will have to do that.
[17:05] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: I think sometimes people forget that even Xubuntu has a lower threshold below which it's not usable... Shadoweaver there are a couple of things you could try but they'll mean a re-install.
[17:05] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: or just manage your memory differently
[17:05] <wintermu1e> how do I change the ip address in butuntu server (without the graphical tool)
[17:05] <hatten> but the pictures have similar names so if i simply moved the files they wouldn't get in order
[17:05] <Gnea> IcyPolecat: why a reinstall?
[17:05] <trygg> is it possible to bypass a gpg error when you've added a 3rd party software source?
[17:05] <Shadoweaver> Oh..  Thats ok.  I have nothing on here to loose.
[17:06] <IcyPolecat> Gnea: well with that little memory the swap is going to be very active to dropping to ext2 would be a good idea. also he can bump the swap up a bit in the process
[17:06] <IcyPolecat> *so dropping to etx2...
[17:06] <Shadoweaver> Hey can we chat on a private, i guess it is called channels.
[17:06] <Shadoweaver> IcyPolecat
[17:06] <DarthPidgin> atharh, with mencoder. open the terminal and type "man mencoder". mencoder and mplayer pretty much take the same options...
[17:06] <lithixium> trygg, Yse
[17:07] <lithixium> Yes
[17:07] <lithixium> trygg, Just ignore the error
[17:07] <trygg> lithixium: i trust the source so its not a problem, how do i do it? :)
[17:07] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: would rather keep it on channel if you don't mind ... if only cos I'm not sure how to get direct channels in irssi :-)
[17:07] <hatten> is there a picture viewer that i can view a few pictures in about 100 folders without moving them, and watching them in the order.
[17:07] <lithixium> trygg, from the command line, or the gui?
[17:07] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: better to keep it here, in case someone else has a good/better idea
[17:07] <Shadoweaver> oh.  O.k.
[17:08] <trygg> lithixium: from a terminal. oh, i noticed it updated anyway
[17:08] <lithixium> trygg, Yeah, it'll complain, but it won't stop you updating/installing from the source
[17:08] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: you should read this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=189192
[17:08] <atharh> DarthPidgin: Thanks
[17:08] <Shadoweaver> What is it that you have in mind
[17:08] <Shadoweaver> Ok gnea
[17:08] <trygg> lithixium: perfect, thanks :)
[17:09] <wisnut> anyone know if I can get the ubuntu-desktop-8.04.1 iso somewhere?  I can find 8.04.0, and 8.04.2, but not 8.04.1. . . . .
[17:11] <Shadoweaver> I am going to read this.  BRB Gnea and IcyPolecat
[17:11] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: certainly the tips re filesystem and services
[17:11] <lithixium> wisnut, Why would you need it? A disto upgrade will get you to the latest 8.04 version anyway
[17:11] <DarthPidgin> wisnut, can I ask why you want that specific version?
[17:11] <DarthPidgin> :D
[17:11] <tonyyarusso> wisnut: why would you want to?
[17:11] <DarthPidgin> Great minds think alike...
[17:11] <nx9005> hi i have hp compaq nx9005 notebook. i installed ubuntu 8.10 server edition but i can't use keyboard and mouse help me please
[17:11] <wisnut> good question
[17:12] <jester7> ok, here's a strange one.  I have an 8.04 server that becomes inaccessible over the network after a random amount of time.  you can't ping, ssh, http.  all i have to do to get it accessible again is ping out FROM the server itself.  any idea what's happening?
[17:12] <Shadoweaver> Alright.  BRB
[17:12] <silv3r_m001> hi thre
[17:12] <lithixium> Wiseguy, Is there an answer?
[17:12] <lithixium> wisnut, Is there any answer?
[17:12] <DarthPidgin> I'm curious too
[17:12] <silv3r_m001> I installed tomcat from synaptic ... and now how to use it ....localhost:8080 doesnt work
[17:12] <lithixium> Wiseguy, sorry, not you
[17:12] <Myrtti> wisnut: why do you want specifically 8.04.1 ?
[17:13] <wisnut> had students install a vm using 8.04.1, and do some labs that I tested with 8.04.2, which worked flawlessly.  Students' vm's kept getting a bunch of errors (perl/cpan related) that we couldn't come up with a consistent fix for, so I wanted to test out their images with a fresh 8.04.1 install. . . .
[17:13] <Aiot> Alright All, Thanks for trying to help.  I guess its back to windows till I can get some driver support for this laptop
[17:13] <Shadoweaver> Hey does this information also include xubuntu or are they pretty much the same?
[17:13] <lithixium> nx9005, So you can't login?
[17:13] <wisnut> just hoping to reproduce the problem and repair
[17:13] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: a lot of it is below the window manager so it will be the same
[17:14] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: yeah, it's pretty much all-encompassing
[17:14] <DarthPidgin> wisnut, isn't it easier to downgrade the perl/cpan stuff
[17:14] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: I'd avoid prelink as it will just put extra load on your system. The EXT3 tips will be useful as will the services / daemons
[17:14] <DarthPidgin> + questionmark
[17:15] <Shadoweaver> Uhh, okay.
[17:15] <tonyyarusso> wisnut: You might still be able to find VMware or VirtualBox images somewhere if you can't find an original ISO.
[17:16] <wisnut> DarthPidgin: ran some cpan updates, which worked on about 30% of the computers, the other ones got just a ton of continual errors, and I'm not good enough to troubleshoot the perl stuff well, so just hoping to reproduce and figure it out
[17:16] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: but you should experiment and see what works best for your situation
[17:16] <lithixium> wisnut, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/8.04/release/ seems to have 8.04.1
[17:16] <wisnut> tonyyarusso: good idea - i'll look for some, but have a general lack of trust in getting someone else's vm's
[17:17] <tonyyarusso> wisnut: Eh, I don't know that I'd use them for a production server or something, but just to test student work there's no issue.
[17:17] <wisnut> lithixium: Awesome!  I just couldn't find it. . . .thanks!!!!!
[17:17] <DarthPidgin> wisnut, http://isohunt.com/torrents/?ihq=ubuntu+8.04.1
[17:17] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: another thing to consider is memory tuning: http://www.broadbandreports.com/forum/r21772995-Perfect-linux-memory-management-accuracy~start=20
[17:18] <Shadoweaver> Alright.  Well, what I am going to do is this;  I will reinstall xubuntu and load it on my other hardrive, play around with the different install settings and see what works best.
[17:18] <wisnut> tonyyarusso: yeah, but what updates did they run before packaging the vm. . . .we started from a scratch install, which is what I'd like to reproduce
[17:18] <Shadoweaver> That way I still have one working (to some degree) OS.
[17:18] <Shadoweaver> What do you think?
[17:18] <wisnut> Thanks DarthPidgin!
[17:18] <DarthPidgin> Isohunt is your buddy
[17:18] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: sounds like fun :)
[17:18] <wisnut> I have a new bookmark now!
[17:18] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: sounds good - will fill the time whilst you're waiting for the mailman to deliver your ram chip :-)
[17:19] <Shadoweaver> Thank you guys so much.  I will let you what happens.  May I add the two of you to my friends list?
[17:19] <Gnea> okay
[17:19] <Jason_CO> can someone please tell me what in the hell console-kit-daemon is and much more importantly why it is CONTINUOUSLY eating up 50 to 75% of my processor.  im runnin kubuntu 8.10 with the kde 4.2 betas installed and up to date
[17:19] <Gnea> !language | Jason_CO
[17:20] <Jason_CO> oops - sorry Gnea
[17:20] <Gnea> Jason_CO: there is never a need for that sort of tone in here.
[17:20] <Jason_CO> Gnea:  as i said -- im sorry --
[17:21] <mheath> Does anyone know what the "Broadcom STA Wireless Driver" restricted driver is for? The Hardware Drivers app offers it for my system, but the wireless works out of the box with free drivers.
[17:21] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: if you have such a thing feel free but this a screened session so 90% of the time I'm not actually looking at it!
[17:21] <Gnea> Jason_CO: what does this command return:  which console-kit-daemon
[17:21] <whut> What repository should I add so that adobe-flashprayer package would be contained within it?
[17:21] <Stefcho> i need some help :S
[17:21] <Stefcho> i run ircd and then he stops auto.. :(
[17:21] <Jason_CO> gnea comes back as /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon
[17:21] <thrope> hi i've got a usb drive that doesn't automount - im trying to setup a regular mount point, but it doesnt seem to have a uuid and i can't find the sysfs serial to make a udev rule so I'm a bit stuck - can I create a uuid without damaging the partition (fat32)? any other suggestions?
[17:22] <Shadoweaver> Oh.  I thought it was like yahoo where you could add people of intrest to a list to keep in contact.
[17:22] <lithixium> whuffor, flashprayer? :D it's in the standard Ubuntu repos (multiverse I think)
[17:22] <Gnea> Jason_CO: okay, now what does this command give you:  dpkg -S /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon
[17:22] <lithixium> whut,  flashprayer? :D it's in the standard Ubuntu repos (multiverse I think)
[17:22] <lithixium> whuffor, sorry, I really need to stop doing this!
[17:22] <Shadoweaver> Sorry, I am still new to this stuff.
[17:22] <DarthPidgin> thrope, did you look in the /dev/disk-by-uuid directory?
[17:22] <Shadoweaver> =)
[17:22] <whut> lithixium: Ah, sory, it's just called flashplayer-nonfree
[17:22] <thrope> DarthPidgin: yes - there isn't a listing there for this partition
[17:22] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: heh, no, this is IRC, which was around years before the concept of IM was born :) you can add us to your /notify list, however
[17:23] <fiftyone> hi im trying to register my nic on irc anyone know how to do it?
[17:23] <DarthPidgin> you can create a uuid as far as i know
[17:23] <thrope> DarthPidgin: and vol_id says unknown volume type
[17:23] <Shadoweaver> oh.  Kinda like the BBS?
[17:23] <tonyyarusso> !register | fiftyone
[17:23] <Scunizi> thrope: you can "find" uuid's with sudo blkid.. sd fo rthe usb drive, since it has the possibility of mounting off different usb ports that might change the uuid. i don't know
[17:23] <DarthPidgin> sounds like a wrong formatted disk
[17:23] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: much more advanced than any bbs chat that existed, but yeah, it evolved around the same time period
[17:23] <Jason_CO> Gnea: consolekit: /usr/sbin/console-kit-daemon
[17:23] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: IRC - a second to get started ... a lifetime to master :)
[17:23] <thrope> DarthPidgin: it mounts fine manually
[17:24] <Shadoweaver> Sounds like fun!  =)
[17:24] <DarthPidgin> that doesn't say anything about the state of a disk ;)
[17:24] <thrope> Scunizi: ah blkid worked
[17:24] <Gnea> Jason_CO: now, please don't paste it here, because we don't do the whole flooding thing ;)  apt-cache show consolekit
[17:24] <refdef> Hey guys. I just uninstalled firestarter from ubuntu 8.10 and rebooted and now my internet connection doesnt work. I get a valid ip and everything but there is no data transfer. Could anyone pleqse help? Thanks
[17:24] <thrope> DarthPidgin: i guess not... :) but i can read and write stuff (just quick test) - guess there could be problems though
[17:25] <Stefcho> damn i know it no one will help me :/
[17:25] <DarthPidgin> u can use uuidgen to create a new uuid
[17:25] <Jason_CO> Gnea: ok - -did it -- what do you need to see?
[17:25] <Shadoweaver> Before I get started on the poking and prodding of the install, what should I be careful of?
[17:25] <Gnea> Jason_CO: it's not what i need to see, it's what you need to read - it tells you what that daemon is all about :)
[17:26] <Stefcho> :/
[17:26] <thrope> Scunizi: but since it doesn't show up in dev/disk/by-uuid it doesnt mount with uuid in fstab
[17:26] <DarthPidgin> thrope, if that doesn't work you can think about automounting with a label
[17:26] <Jason_CO> Gnea: im far more concerned about why its burning up 50% - 75% of my processor speed
[17:27] <Scunizi> Stefcho: you can repeat your question every few minutes or so.. you've got people waking up and joining from around the world while others are tired and going to bed..
[17:27] <thrope> DarthPidgin: ah that would do - how do I label an fat32 partition?
[17:27] <Stefcho> ok Thanky
[17:27] <Gnea> Jason_CO: well, take a look at what it's designed to do. now, take a look at your process list in realtime with the top command
[17:27] <Stefcho> i run ircd and between 10 minutes he stops auto can anyone help me ?
[17:27] <Scunizi> thrope: usb is handled differently .. not directly in fstab.. unless you're dealing with a vm in virtualbox
[17:28] <refdef> Any help?
[17:28] <refdef> Please i just uninstalled firestarter and rebooted and now my internet connection does not work anymore
[17:28] <whut> I have a FAT32 flash card with a damaged disk map, what can I restore/fix it with?
[17:28] <DarthPidgin> thrope, there is an mtools package for that
[17:28] <Stefcho> i run ircd and between 10 minutes he stops auto can anyone help me ?
[17:28] <Gnea> whut: testdisk
[17:28] <Shadoweaver> Gnea: is there anything that I need to be careful with while playing with the different setting in the installation?
[17:28] <thrope> Scunizi: not in this case - it doesnt auto mount or anything, so i just thought id put in fstab
[17:28] <Stefcho> i run ircd and between 10 minutes he stops auto can anyone help me ?
[17:28] <Scunizi> Stefcho: what you wrote doesn't make any sense.. however if you need ircd assistance that's not directly ubuntu related.. might try in ##linux
[17:29] <bpatterson_> I'm running nfs-user-server in Ubuntu 8.10 (i386) and trying to mount a share on an ubuntu 8.04 (x64) server.   I get an access denied error.  Relevant files: http://paste.ubuntu.com/117353/
[17:29] <Jason_CO> Gnea: my computer has only one user -- me
[17:29] <Stefcho> Scunizi its from ubuntu
[17:29] <DarthPidgin> thrope, I warn you, the mtools package is probably the worst thing the ubuntu community ever faced... But it will work... eventually.
[17:29] <Scunizi> thrope: have you tried a different usb port.. perhaps one without a hub on it if that's what it's plugged into now.
[17:29] <Stefcho> cuz when i look at the System log
[17:29] <Stefcho> there is error from the ubuntu
[17:29] <erUSUL> !info tstdisk | whut
[17:29] <erUSUL> !info testdisk | whut
[17:29] <SAnDY_COOl_> hi
[17:30] <SAnDY_COOl_> raj
[17:30] <whut> Thanks!
[17:30] <rw> Hi, I'm installing an ubuntu command line install and during installation it asks for the ubuntu intrepid cd. I can't open the cd rom drive to put it in there. What going on?
[17:30] <SAnDY_COOl_> its wa too complicated da
[17:30] <Gnea> Jason_CO: but perhaps there's a rogue process that's causing problems
[17:30] <platypus_> i'm having an issue in ubuntu i haven't come across before, dual monitors using the proprietary nvidia driver, one monitor will dim randomly and then return to normal
[17:30] <Jason_CO> Gnea: ok -   thanks i'll start digging
[17:30] <Scunizi> Stefcho: still .. to get help on a package and how it works or configuration you're at the mercey of finding someone that has done it before.. you might have a better chance at this time period to try ##linux
[17:31] <Shadoweaver> Gnea
[17:31] <Stefcho> Scunizi ok dude thank u :)
[17:31] <Shadoweaver> Did you see my last
[17:32] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: basically take your time and try not to get discouraged if you lock your system up once or twice
[17:32] <platypus_> not sure if thats a question for the nvidia folks or something going on with acpid
[17:32] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: not really - obviously make sure you're working on the right disk if you're partitioning other than that make sure you patience, and a clock - tweaking can seriously eat into your day
[17:32] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: but that's just a worst-case thing, I doubt that you'll have that problem :)
[17:33] <Shadoweaver> How do I know which hard drive to use so I don't mess up this one?
[17:33] <refdef> Please! I uninstalled firestarter and rebooted my pc and now my internet connection doesnt work. Cqn anyone hel p please? Hanks
[17:33] <Gnea> platypus_: odd, sounds like the monitor is on the fritz
[17:33] <platypus_> Gnea, I suspected the same
[17:33] <platypus_> however ive tried a few monitors
[17:33] <platypus_> and it happens to all of them
[17:33] <Gnea> o.O
[17:33] <platypus_> and, it happens to the left or right one
[17:33] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: well one will have the root ext3 patitions and swap already laid out. the other will have whatever was on it before. FAT or NTFS
[17:33] <rraj_be> SAnDY_COOl
[17:33] <platypus_> not just one
[17:33] <rraj_be> i am here
[17:34] <platypus_> if it was just one side i would have thought similar but its not
[17:34] <rraj_be> u can post ur doubts SAnDY_COOl
[17:34] <Shadoweaver> I deleted the partitions on the other drive
[17:34] <Scunizi> platypus_: which driver are you using?
[17:34] <Shadoweaver> How do I find the Hard Drive names?
[17:34] <platypus_> the nvidia linux driver for quadro cards
[17:34] <platypus_> let me get the specific revision
[17:34] <Scunizi> platypus_: which version number
[17:34] <Shadoweaver> That way I don't have to guess.
[17:34] <Gnea> Shadoweaver: they aren't 'named', but mapped in /etc/fstab
[17:34] <Gnea> !fstab
[17:34] <wikkedfin> Does ubuntu have any app to make say birthday cards?
[17:34] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: ok so that's the empty one! Will be identified by either hdd# or sda# where # is the disk number and provided you don't physically disconnect them thos number shouldn't change
[17:35] <Stefcho> i run ircd and between 10 minutes he stops auto can anyone help me ?
[17:35] <Shadoweaver> Yea, I got that.  When in installation mode, How will I tell the difference?
[17:36] <Shadoweaver> If you told me before I am sorry.
[17:36] <IcyPolecat> Shadoweaver: if you go for custom partition the disks will be refferred to by their ID
[17:36] <platypus_> Scunizi, - NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.22
[17:36] <whut> How can I upgrade to KDE 4.2/OpenOffice.org 3 using only bash? (using ssh to work this one)
[17:36] <Scunizi> platypus_: you installed that one yourself .. right?
[17:36] <platypus_> yes
[17:36] <Shadoweaver> Oh.  I get thanks.
[17:37] <LaGeek> whut ask #kubuntu
[17:37] <refdef> Please
[17:37] <Shadoweaver> When in terminal, what command do you I use to see the ID for the one I am on now?
[17:37] <Scunizi> platypus_: you might download the latest which I think is 180.29.. when you install it it will automatically uninstall the other.. remember you have to do it from a TTY without gdm running.
[17:37] <platypus_> right
[17:37] <platypus_> is this a known issue with that release?
[17:38] <platypus_> there's nothing in the change log
[17:38] <platypus_> and it was released in late january
[17:38] <Scunizi> platypus_: not really sure.. but I know there were major strides on my machine between x.11 and x.22 .. I'm installing .29 today
[17:38] <platypus_> ah
[17:38] <platypus_> it was just released yesterday
[17:38] <jester7> ok, here's a strange one.  I have an 8.04 server that becomes inaccessible over the network after a random amount of time.  you can't ping, ssh, http.  all i have to do to get it accessible again is ping out FROM the server itself.  any idea what's happening?
[17:39] <Shadoweaver> anyone?
[17:39] <lithixium> whut, do you have the right repos enabled?
