[00:00] <prince_jammys> rhineheart_m: echo $UID
[00:00] <Slart> Takatski: the ubuntu install should set that up for you automagically
[00:00] <Takatski> Oh ok
[00:00] <ejer> forget that pen, if your hard drive is 100GB, that is what is going
[00:00] <pen> ejer: cool, it doesn'teven say 100
[00:00] <MsK`> pen, if it's a /dev/hd it's a PATA, if it's /dev/sd it's SATA
[00:00] <Pete_B> Takatski: the ubuntu installer is supposed to handle that for you, giving you a menu when you boot, offering ubuntu or windows
[00:00] <JoshPC> hey anyone got compiz-fuzion working under vmware fusion or parallels?
[00:00] <Slart> Takatski: ubuntu plays nice with the other os's in the playground.. guess who's the big bully hogging all the toys  ;)
[00:00] <ejer> no it says 100030MB = 100GB pen
[00:00] <pen> ejer: then why having a cd in cdrom solved the problem partially?
[00:00] <nouMenon> Pete_B, how do I figure how which IP/Mask/Etc to use?
[00:00] <AutoMatriX> oh, tant que j'y suis, qui peut m'xpliquer comment démarrer kismet SANS devoir entrer le mot de passe root ?
[00:01] <Slart> !fr | AutoMatriX
[00:01] <ubotu> AutoMatriX: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[00:01] <Pete_B> nouMenon: ask you system administrator
[00:01] <pen> ejer: actually, mine is hda
[00:01] <gamma> so can anyone help me out?
[00:01] <pen> MsK`: thx, I think mine is hda
[00:01] <rhineheart_m> prince_jammys: why mine is 0?
[00:01] <nouMenon> Pete_B, I essentially am my system administrator, thanks anyways.
[00:01] <prince_jammys> rhineheart_m: you are logged in as root
[00:01] <pen> ejer: ??
[00:01] <Takatski> Also, when i was running Ubuntu off the dvd i made, i had abnormally large window border tops, is that because my graphics card isnt supported well? or is it something else
[00:01] <prince_jammys> rhineheart_m: type:::   whoami
[00:01] <Pete_B> nouMenon: copy the settings from when it was DHCP
[00:01] <ejer> pen what is your question? I have answered it afaik
[00:01] <Takatski> Not to mention my sound was almost.. dampened and i could barely hear anything
[00:01] <nouMenon> Pete_B: Thanks.
[00:01] <solexious> [Q] I want to install pport, but its not in the reposetory, ive downloaded a gz but dont know where to go now...
[00:01] <pen> ejer: ah
[00:02] <pen> ejer: NO
[00:02] <Slart> Takatski: you probably have to install a better graphics driver.. are you using nvidia or ati?
[00:02] <AutoMatriX> oops sorry folks, tryinbg to translate that, obviously M IN THE WRONG ROOM CAN SOMEBODY TELL ME TO SATRT Kismet, WITHOUT having to enter the root-password ?
[00:02] <danbhfive> CarlFK: the weird thing that I experienced (and sorry for not mentioning this earlier) is that I had to type my password twice.  Once, it was hidden.  the next time, it was echoed
[00:02] <pen> ejer: it's sad
[00:02] <pen> ejer: mine is sad
[00:02] <pen> sda
[00:02] <pen> nvm
[00:02] <pen> I will go backup
[00:02] <pen> not a big deal
[00:02] <FloodBot2> pen: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:02] <ejer> yes losing a hard drive is sad :(
[00:02] <Takatski> I'm on a laptop and its an onboard
[00:02] <rhineheart_m> prince_jammys: But I head of a man saying things like linux user license
[00:02] <Pete_B> nouMenon: netmask is likely <IP_ADDRESS>; IP address is likely 192.168.1.x; gateway is likely <IP_ADDRESS>; DNS is likely <IP_ADDRESS> but who knows
[00:02] <AutoMatriX> should not have shouted either, damned I'm in a very tired mood ;)
[00:02] <jonnyro> I am trying to compile something that requires ctype.h
[00:02] <ejer> rhineheart_m: http://counter.li.org/ ?
[00:02] <LHX2> Wow... montser channel
[00:02] <jonnyro> how can i find out what package contains that
[00:02] <Slart> AutoMatriX: why not use sudo? no root password needed..
[00:02] <prince_jammys> rhineheart_m: can't help you there.  don't know what that is.
[00:03] <Bitmess> I lose my screen resolution settings when I reboot. How can I fix this?
[00:03] <Jangari> Are there any calendar-only apps?
[00:03] <Slart> jonnyro: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[00:03] <ejer> jonnyro: not to be rude, but google gives answer
[00:03] <Slart> jonnyro: that should fix it
[00:03] <pen> ejer: thx again anyway for the clarification
[00:03] <sammyF> how can I revert to lic6 v6 when i tried installing libc6 v7 and apt-get wants to remove the whole system if I deinstall v7?
[00:03] <MsK`> Jangari, click or double clic on the time at the top right of the screen
[00:03] <WorkingOnWise> where can I go to learn about the differances between OSS and ALSA, and which is better for what?
[00:03] <jonnyro> Thanks!
[00:04] <ejer> WorkingOnWise: alsa is better in general, oss is old and not used much
[00:04] <Jangari> i know, MsK`, but i don't want to use evolution just for its calendar section
[00:04] <Pete_B> WorkingOnWise: forget OSS
[00:04] <MsK`> Jangari, duh ? I don't use evolution either
[00:04] <ejer> Jangari: lightning on thunderbird is nice if you use gcal
[00:04] <AutoMatriX> Slart, sudo kismet ... and password otherwise it won't start
[00:04] <jonnyro> Slart: thanks.  I am stunned that i did not already have build-essential installed. I have a bunch of ubuntu systems, and i guess i never got around to it on this one
[00:04] <sammyF> WorkingOnWise: right on ejer, except for the "old" .. there is a new OSS version out that supports the newer creative labs soundcards, which are NOT supported by ALSA
[00:04] <Slart> AutoMatriX: your password.. your user password.. not a root password.. try it
[00:04] <Jangari> yeah, ejer, that's true, i forgot i had that set up
[00:04] <MsK`> Jangari, if you want *just* a calendar, and nothing else, just click ON the time, a window popup will appear with a calendar of the month
[00:04] <Takatski> If im running on a laptop and an onboard video card, what could the problem be?
[00:05] <lmiller> I have a non-networked laptop running dapper. It has USB. Is there a (least worst) way to upgrade dapper to gibbon?
[00:05] <Takatski> SoundMAX sound card
[00:05] <sammyF> Pete_B: it REALLY depends on your soundcard
[00:05] <Slart> jonnyro: I can't think of any reason not to have it installed by default.. but I guess there is some kind of reason
[00:05] <Pete_B> sammyF: good point
[00:05] <Jangari> MsK`: what i want is to be able to put in appointments without having to open evolution, i already know what day it is
[00:05] <ejer> sammyF: have a link on this? interesting...
[00:05]  * bluefoxx is away: lost in my thoughts...or maybe even a movie, the web or music
[00:05] <Takatski> and id hafta figure out what my video card is called
[00:05] <CarlFK> danbhfive: something werided me out.  I typed it 3 or 4 times.  then wondered if my user had sudo privs, so tried sudo vi /etc/sudoers
[00:05] <AutoMatriX> Slart,do you realy thik I would bother people at this hour if I did'nt have testedtaht ?
[00:05] <MsK`> Jangari, ok so you don't want a calendar but an agenda
[00:05] <sammyF> how can I reinstall libc6 without having half the system removed?
[00:05] <sammyF> ejer: one sec
[00:05] <Pete_B> sammyF: I'm shocked tho that any still don;t work with ALSA
[00:05] <CarlFK> danbhfive: which meant I didn't need it when I treid again
[00:05] <rhineheart_m> Is CAcert could be recognized as valid ssl issuer in firefox?
[00:05] <Slart> AutoMatriX: you'd be surprised at the questions we get here =).. so.. sudo won't accept your user password.. you are running ubuntu, right?
[00:06] <sin|g_x|> any1 use the democracy player ?
[00:06] <WorkingOnWise> ok. where can I learn what I need to do to be able to hear multiple sound sources at the same time, like a message notification from Pidgin, music played in a widget in firefox, and game sound in World of Warcraft?
[00:06] <ejer> rhineheart_m: if you server is set up right, yes
[00:06] <sammyF> Pete_B: yep ... so was I when I tried to use my brand new and very good sounding Xfi in Ubuntu
[00:06] <dmoerner> WorkingOnWise, use pulseaudio
[00:06] <dmoerner> WorkingOnWise, it isn't in gutsy as far as i know
[00:06] <Slart> WorkingOnWise: google for "+dmix +ubuntu" there are lots of howto's out there
[00:06] <sin|g_x|> having trouble with E: Package libboost-python1.33.1 has no installation candidate
[00:06] <cexshun> anyone else have sound randomly "freeze" in gutsy?
[00:06] <knox_> eha
[00:06] <NativeAngels> hello
[00:06] <AutoMatriX> sladen, sudo accepts my password, but I don't want to type it in each time i want to use kismet
[00:06] <sammyF> ejer: http://www.opensound.com/
[00:07] <NativeAngels> ive just installed the server edition of ubunto
[00:07] <Pete_B> AutoMatriX: tough
[00:07] <NativeAngels> but found it hasnt go c installed on it
[00:07] <sammyF> ejer: check the oss4.0 release. the Xfi support works quite nicely, even though "early alpha"
[00:07] <NativeAngels> how do i dl it
[00:07] <knox_> :D
[00:07] <NativeAngels> or install it
[00:07] <AutoMatriX> Slart,in fact I'm using a tablet PC, and typing in a pwd is not that handy with a stylus
[00:07] <dmoerner> AutoMatriX, edit the sudoers files with "visudo"
[00:07] <WorkingOnWise> dmoerner: Slart  thanks
[00:08] <Pete_B> NativeAngels: what do you want to install?
[00:08] <sammyF> please, how can I reinstall the standard libc6 from synaptic after having installed a newer libc6 version without having half the system erased?
[00:08] <NativeAngels> c
[00:08] <Laney_Family> Q. i was speaking with someone earlyer, at the time i had server installed with ubuntu desktop gui installed, it caused issues, so now ive installed the desktop version and plan on installing server over, how do i do this?
[00:08] <Pete_B> NativeAngels: be more specific
[00:08] <AutoMatriX> dmoerner, that seems to be a hint in the good direction
[00:08]  * sammyF is desperate
[00:08] <ejer> sammyF: it is interesting... http://4front-tech.com/hannublog/?p=5 guess it is not dead
[00:08] <NativeAngels> the c u use make to compile stuff
[00:09] <NativeAngels> is it dcc ?
[00:09] <Pici> NativeAngels: gcc.
[00:09] <Pete_B> NativeAngels: gcc
[00:09] <AutoMatriX> that sudoers-file can that be limited to one program only ?

[00:09] <kostkon> knox_, where else? skype.com
[00:09] <NativeAngels> can i use apt get to  install it
[00:09] <sammyF> ejer: it's more on the resurected side of things
[00:09] <knox_> thanks
[00:09] <Slart> AutoMatriX: ah.. that's another question altogether... I guess you could pipe the password from a file to your command.. but you'll be putting your password in cleartext in a file which isn't really good
[00:09] <knox_> bro
[00:09]  * bluefoxx is back (gone 00:04:35)
[00:10] <AutoMatriX> ejer, thanks, 'm Going to have a closer look at that thing, now,

[00:10] <Christina18> Need help connecting my camera HP M307. I use Ubuntu, when I connect nothing happens. And no new icons anywhere. I have tried both Camera and Disk mode on the menu on the camera. F-Spot says "no camera detected"
[00:10] <cexshun> Soundblaster Audigy 2 Plat. Alsa. Ubuntu Gutsy. Sounds works fine for a while, sometimes days. Then, it seems random, any software playing a sound will freeze, XMMS/rhythembox/firefox/etc. But for some reason, mplayer will still play fine. No errors in log files that i've found
[00:10] <Takatski> Slart: my laptop is using a Intel Graphics media accelerator and my sound card is soundMAX i believe

[00:10] <CarlFK> danbhfive: thanks
[00:10] <kgx> hey...is it possible to use grep but instead of outputting the entire line, only output the match?
[00:10] <sammyF> ejer: and installing oss4.0 breaks down a few things, like the skype beta
[00:11] <Pete_B> Christina18: no icons are going to appear. If it's supported then it will be available in cameras software such as camorama and Skype. Maybe youre isn;t supported
[00:11] <ejer> sammyF: can it run more than one sound at same time?
[00:11] <Fireclown> hey
[00:11] <AutoMatriX> ejer, BINGO, if I don't find it ther, I'll find it nowher, I guess
[00:11] <Fireclown> how do I reinstall the ubuntu bootloader? I had to reinstall xp on my other drive and the install program replaced it with this XP install bootloader thingamajig
[00:11] <kgx> never mind ggot it
[00:11] <Slart> Takatski: well.. intel should be supported.. one of the better videocards for ubuntu afaik
[00:11] <sammyF> ejer: let me try actively, but I think I did a few times already
[00:11] <Pete_B> Christina18: sorry, it's not a webcam is it?

[00:11] <Christina18> Pete_B: no it is not a webcam. It is a real HP digital camera
[00:11] <Fireclown> thanks!
[00:11] <IndyGunFreak> Slart: some of the newer intel chips aren't supported very well yet
[00:11] <sammyF> ejer, VLC and Amarok running at the same time right now ... so yes
[00:12] <ejer> sammyF: well, something else may be doing it at that point
[00:12] <Pete_B> Christina18: maybe it's not supported. does 'lsusb' at the command line tell you it sees the camera?
[00:12] <NativeAngels> E: Couldn't find package dcc
[00:12] <AutoMatriX> so I've got another minor malfun ctioning ...
[00:12] <NativeAngels> thats what im getting
[00:12] <Pici> NativeAngels: install build-essential
[00:12] <Takatski> Slart: then what could be the problem? i've seen no way to resize the border
[00:12] <Slart> AutoMatriX: I'm not really sure about this.. but couldn't you set the suid-bit on the kismet executable and make root own it.. ?
[00:12] <sammyF> ejer, you need pulseaudio for everything to work with OSS4.0 though
[00:12] <Pete_B> NativeAngels: gcc
[00:12] <ejer> Christina18: it looks like a bug, I found it but launchpad is down :(
[00:12] <Pici> NativeAngels: Thats contains everything you need to compile things.
[00:12] <Slart> IndyGunFreak: oh.. that's to bad..
[00:13] <starpause> has anyone gotten sweep to work under ubuntu?
[00:13] <Christina18> Pete_B: can't see it in lsusb. But I am pretty sure Hewlett Packard M307 is supported by Ubuntu..
[00:13] <AutoMatriX> xorg doesn't allow me a config of 1400*0150 and 1240*960 .... anyway how to change that ? I'm running NVIDIA-GLS
[00:13] <Slart> Takatski: you'll probably have to find a graphics driver.. or tweak the one that you're using..
[00:13] <Laney_Family> no one?
[00:13] <Christina18> ejer: what is launchpad? What can I do ?
[00:13] <Pete_B> Christina18: if it ain' there in lsusb then it ain't gonna work
[00:13] <sammyF> anybody could tell me how to reinstall a lib without apt-get or synamtic telling me it's going to wipe out the whole system?

[00:15] <ejer> Christina18: look carefully ;) you missed a d
[00:15] <Pici> sammyF: Why is that not installed?
[00:15] <Pete_B> is there any info online about the setup that the Ubuntu LAMP server installation does beyond if I were to just install the packages separately?
[00:16] <Christina18> ejer: you are right! and now? camera is still on
[00:16] <blastron> Hello, I have a rather major problem with my server that I'm hoping to find support for. I'm relatively new to Linux (and servers), so I'm not exactly sure where to begin...
[00:16]  * AutoMatriX thanks you, folks, I'll drop a 6 pack, next time :p
[00:16] <ejer> Christina18: ?
[00:16] <iositd> blastron: what is your problem? that way others might have ideas on the solution
[00:16] <sammyF> Pici: I tried installing the latest cinelerra which needs libquicktimehv which is sadly only compiled with libc6 2.7-1. so .. being kind of esperate to have cinelerra back, and assuming I could have BOTH libs, the current and this one, iunstalled, I installed the deb package from heron
[00:16] <Pete_B> blastron: don't ask to ask, just ask
[00:17] <Christina18> ejer: I typed that command, no output and replugged the camera. But nothing seems to have happened..
[00:17] <blastron> Alright, right now my problem is that none of its services are actually accessible from outside.
[00:17] <sammyF> Pici: it broke up with an error about dependancies not being fulfillled, but now if I try to reinstall 2.6-1 sit asks me to remove 136 other packages :/
[00:17] <ejer> hmm does anyone know if Christina18 needs to be in plugdev  group for cam to work?
[00:17] <blastron> For example, Apache is running, but all connections time out.
[00:17] <Pete_B> ejer: yeah
[00:17] <sammyF> Pici: most of which are basic libs
[00:17] <nickrud> ejer: should be
[00:18] <Pete_B> blastron: outside?
[00:18] <iositd> blastron: can you access them locally?
[00:18] <blastron> Remote, sorry
[00:18] <Pici> sammyF: You may be out of luck here.
[00:18] <Pici> sammyF: libc6 is *the* core package
[00:18] <solexious> [Q] I want to install pport, but its not in the reposetory, ive downloaded a gz but dont know where to go now...
[00:18] <blastron> yeah, I can access them locally
[00:18] <ejer> ok, Christina18 in the terminal window try typing 'sudo gpasswd -a yourusername plugdev' with no quotes and replace yourusername with well... your user name :)
[00:18] <Laney_Family> can anyone tell me how to install ubuntu server withing ubuntu desktop?
[00:18] <iositd> Pete_B: iptables blocking it?

[00:19] <sammyF> Pici, there is no obvious way to just reinstall the old version against which all of my system was installed without breaking everything apart?
[00:19] <nickrud> Laney_Family: just install whatever server you want, it'll slide right into the desktop no problem
[00:19] <Pete_B> iositd: what service needs to be accessed?

[00:20] <Pete_B> solexious: check back with the web site to see if they offer a .deb to download
[00:20] <sammyF> dmoerner: downgrading is okay at this point. I think I'll just wait for Heron before using cinelerra again
[00:20] <releod> Anyone know why my monitor is not using the full screen in ubuntu 7.10?

[00:21] <furious_gerbil> command line prompt, all I get is a flashing curser
[00:21] <Slart> furious_gerbil: ah.. ok.. you mean *that* prompt.. tried pressing enter a few times?
[00:21] <furious_gerbil> I will try that :)
[00:21] <ejer> rhineheart_m: i may be wrong, am looking
[00:21] <rhineheart_m> ejer: I have an account already in CACert..but the problem is how could I integrate it to ubuntu?
[00:21] <sammyF> CarlFK: wild guess but it's probably libmagick-dev
[00:22] <releod> How do I find out what Video Card my ubuntu system has?
[00:22] <furious_gerbil> nope, didn't work
[00:22] <sammyF> dmoerner: so ... what are the easy ways to downgrade?
[00:22] <blastron> iositd: Thanks for your help!
[00:22] <Pete_B> rhineheart_m: checkout tinyca
[00:22] <gold44> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/binary-i386/    <--- i am trying to look for a package, gimp., but i don't see it in there
[00:22] <Slart> blastron: firestarter isn't a firewall.. it's an application to setup the firewall which is called iptables, afaik
[00:23] <Slart> blastron: this means.. even if you shut down firestarter, the firewall is still active
[00:23] <Slart> furious_gerbil: is it the same on all the ttys?
[00:23] <blastron> Slart: Ahh, how would I go about configuring iptables?
[00:23] <Pete_B> releod: you can atleast use, at the command-line, lspci or lspci -v
[00:23] <dmoerner> sammyF, just use dpkg -i --force-downgrade $package
[00:23] <ejer> rhineheart_m: http://blog.thedebianuser.org/?p=286
[00:23] <furious_gerbil> Slart: yes
[00:23] <dmoerner> sammyF, just download the old .deb
[00:23] <haxit> prince_jammys: Are you busy?
[00:23] <Slart> blastron: that's a lifetime of knowledge right there =).. but I can tell you how to reset it =)
[00:23] <ejer> rhineheart_m: and http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/BrowserClients
[00:23] <prince_jammys> haxit: what's up?
[00:24] <sammyF> dmoerner: thanks :) you'r saving my life (well .. kind of :)
[00:24] <Slart> furious_gerbil: odd...
[00:24] <haxit> imma query you
[00:24] <azazel>  /QUOTE PASS 17828
[00:24] <danbhfive> gold44: what package?
[00:24] <azazel> QUOTE PASS 17828
[00:24] <blastron> slart: Ah right, sorry, forgot to check Google first! If you could tell me how to reset it, though, that would be fantastic.
[00:24] <Slart> azazel: ?
[00:24] <Pici> azazel: Thats not how you identify.
[00:24] <haxit> prince_jammys: dam, i cant query you, o well
[00:24] <furious_gerbil> Slart: I am wondering if there is a setting in Ubuntu that limits tty's?
[00:24] <WhoaItsPhil> can anyone give me a hand with compiz? when i go to system-> appearances, and go to visual effects and try to change it from None to Normal or Extra, it says "The Composite extension is not available" and i have to click the X to get it to go out of that...pressing OK doesn't do anything
[00:24] <dmoerner> sammyF, manpages are your friend
[00:24] <Slart> blastron: first.. let's see what is there.. open a terminal, run "sudo iptables -L"
[00:24] <haxit> prince_jammys: good to see you again :) i have a question about my ssh, how can i set my own welcome message
[00:24] <nickrud> gold44: it'll be hiding under http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/ ; but why not just install it with apt-get or synaptic?
[00:25] <prince_jammys> haxit: that's something i have no experience with
[00:25] <Slart> furious_gerbil: there might be but I doubt it's set by default.. I have 7 ttys.. f1-f7
[00:25] <furious_gerbil> WhoaItsPhil: do you have Xgl installed?
[00:25] <haxit> prince_jammys: ok :)
[00:25] <prince_jammys> haxit: sorry
[00:25] <haxit> prince_jammys: so whats up?
[00:25] <haxit> prince_jammys: np :)
[00:25] <Slart> blastron: you should get some text and 3 lines with policy something, right?
[00:25] <gold44> danbhfive: gimp
[00:25] <prince_jammys> haxit: not much
[00:26] <haxit> prince_jammys: so are you american? canadian?
[00:26] <georgesimpson> hi there, I know that some graphics cards ( mine is SIS 760) is not really compatible with linux, would the Intel GMA X3100 be easy to use?
[00:26] <rhineheart_m> ejer: okay..but it will still give a warning right? is there an organization that issues certificate for free but recognized by browsers like IE/Mozilla?
[00:26] <haxit> prince_jammys: european?
[00:26] <gold44> nickrud: just want to see how things are organized. gimp is already installed on my machine
[00:26] <WhoaItsPhil> yes i have the right drivers installed for my ATI card and i have whitelisted them as it says in the ubuntu tutorial
[00:26] <prince_jammys> haxit: originally from argentina, live in new york
[00:26] <blastron> slart: ...I'm using the default command-line on the server because I can't get SSH, how do I scroll up?
[00:26] <ejer> rhineheart_m: it should not warn after
[00:26] <haxit> prince_jammys: im originally from iran, live in canada
[00:26] <CarlFK> sammyF: searching for that gave me graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat - but I also found libmagick9-dev - any idea which i want?
[00:26] <haxit> prince_jammys: ottawa to be exact
[00:26] <lubosz> hi, how do i change the login sound (drums)
[00:26] <VSpike> ejer: thanks for that mplayer fix earlier, it worked perfectly... someone arrived at that moment so didn't have a chance to say thanks
[00:26] <Slart> blastron: scroll up.. not sure you can do that.. you get that much text from that command?
[00:26] <nickrud> gold44: everything is in the pool, the thing you were looking at is a pointer to particular packages in the pool
[00:26] <icesword> good morning ,everyone
[00:26] <AntiUSA> anybody know any really good Linux games?
[00:26] <blastron> yeah
[00:26] <ejer> np VSpike
[00:27] <haxit> Hello, Can anyone direct me on how to change my ssh servers login message, i am using open ssh
[00:27] <rhineheart_m> ejer: but I'm concern with the visitors of my site.. they will be warned for sure.. right?
[00:27] <furious_gerbil> WhoaItsPhil: I didn't ask about the drivers, I was wondering if you had Xgl installed?
[00:27] <blastron> slart: Yeah... I'm going to write it to a file and look in there.
[00:27] <AntiUSA> specifically, what are good linux multiplayer games
[00:27] <prince_jammys> lubosz: i think in preferences->sound and there's a submenu in there
[00:27] <ozzloy> amarok says the sound device is busy.  how do i find out what's using the sound device?
[00:27] <WhoaItsPhil> umm i'm not sure then? how do i check/
[00:27] <prince_jammys> haxit: cool
[00:27] <ejer> rhineheart_m: there is no free ssl cert that is installed on everyone's browser
[00:27] <Slart> blastron: ok, try this then.. "sudo iptables -F" that should reset the rules.. then try that first command again
[00:27] <gold44> danbhfive: nickrud  , i want to be able to just download that package.deb and save it to flash drive and install it on a offline machine
[00:27] <CarlFK> sammyF: nm, this made the choice for me: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/all/graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat/filelist
[00:27] <ejer> that i know of rhineheart_m ;)
[00:27] <haxit> prince_jammys: kk, ttyl, ill see if anyone can help me with my prblem
[00:27] <lubosz> prince_jammys: thats just for the sound after the login, i want the drum sound before you type anything
[00:27] <danbhfive> gold44: try here: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz
[00:27] <sammyF> CarlFK: cool :) would have thought the second
[00:28] <nickrud> gold44: look into aptoncd and apt-zip , they help with that
[00:28] <furious_gerbil> WhoaItsPhil: go into synaptic and search for Xgl, if it's not installed, install it ;)
[00:28] <georgesimpson> hi there, I know that some graphics cards ( mine is SIS 760) is not really compatible with linux, would the Intel GMA X3100 be easy to use?
[00:28] <rhineheart_m> ejer: okay.. so what's then the prupose of CACert if the browsers won't accept its digital certificate?
[00:28] <WhoaItsPhil> k
[00:28] <ejer> rhineheart_m: they will, you need to install it first, it is all on their wiki
[00:28] <blastron> slart: Now I get a bunch of lines of Chain whatever with no references
[00:28] <starpause> can anyone tell me how to install fonts on a xubunu machine?
[00:28] <AntiUSA> what are good multiplayer games for linux?
[00:28] <ejer> rhineheart_m: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAcert
[00:28] <Slart> blastron: and some lines that say Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) ... or it says REJECT?
[00:28] <gold44> danbhfive: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/a/abiword/abiword_2.4.6-2ubuntu2_i386.deb  package not found
[00:29] <furious_gerbil> WhoaItsPhil: a warning though, since I installed xgl none of my opengl games work...
[00:29] <ozzloy> why is evince using the sound device?
[00:29] <reikalusikka> any german speakers here?:D
[00:29] <blastron> slart: it says DROP for input, forward, and output.
[00:29] <nickrud> gold44: the gimp package by itself isn't enough, there's at least gimp-data you'll need as well, and gimp-gnomevfs is useful.
[00:29] <danbhfive> gold44: what?
[00:29] <lubosz> reikalusikka: yes
[00:29] <haxit> can anyone assist me with setting a custom welcome message for my openssh server?
[00:29] <prettyricky> Does anyone know what codecs I need to play movies with VLC?
[00:29] <Christin18> ejer: still there ?
[00:29] <prince_jammys> lubosz: system->administration->login window and a submenu in there
[00:29] <nickrud> gold44: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/abiword/
[00:29] <ejer> Christina18: yep
[00:29] <Slart> blastron: that means that all traffic is dropped... we want to change that.. "sudo iptables --policy INPUT ACCEPT"
[00:30] <furious_gerbil> prettyricky: what formats?
[00:30] <WhoaItsPhil> hmmm well i installed it but still no change...do i need to restart?
[00:30] <Slart> blastron: "sudo iptables --policy FORWARD ACCEPT"
[00:30] <furious_gerbil> WhoaItsPhil: restart x
[00:30] <Slart> blastron: "sudo iptables --policy OUTPUT ACCEPT"
[00:30] <bluefox83> prettyricky, you need the same codecs as all other players, libdvdread3
[00:30] <WhoaItsPhil> k
[00:30] <lubosz> prince_jammys: thx
[00:30] <Slart> blastron: run all those three
[00:30] <reiner> I need help. where are the C header files to compile?
[00:30] <reiner> ubuntu gutsy
[00:30] <WorkingOnWise> My laptop is a fairly high end model, but I don't think it really has 2 sound cards installed...so why does gnome volume control show both an HDA Nvidia and a Realtek ALC883?
[00:30] <blastron> slart: Done.
[00:30] <Starnestommy> reiner: I think /usr/include/
[00:30] <Slart> WorkingOnWise: one might be for alsa, one for oss
[00:31] <danbhfive> reiner: maybe you need to install build-essential?
[00:31] <Slart> blastron: that should be it.. it should be wide open now
[00:31] <rhineheart_m> ejer: ubuntu by default includes CACert already. Right?
[00:31] <ejer> rhineheart_m: no i was wrong  - the blog has instructions how to install it
[00:31] <blastron> slart: Hm, I'm still unable to contact it on telnet, ssh, or http.
[00:31] <gold44> nickrud: i was reading http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  , so i just cut and paste url  to obtain http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/a/abiword/abiword_2.4.6-2ubuntu2_i386.deb
[00:32] <solexious> [q] Trying to config a program, i get: checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[00:32] <solexious> help!
[00:32] <prettyricky> ok, do i just apt-get install libdvdread3
[00:32] <gold44> nickrud: apt-zip is the solution then
[00:32] <Starnestommy> solexious: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[00:32] <Slart> blastron: ok.. were you able to do that before you installed firestarter?
[00:32] <prettyricky> formats are mp4
[00:32] <nickrud> gold44: yes, it works really well with a thumbdrive
[00:32] <solexious> ty
[00:32] <WhoaItsPhil> hmm ok still no change...it says the same thing when i try to change the visual effects
[00:32] <Christin18> can anyone please help me to connect my camera to my comp? F-spot sais "No camera detected" after I have connected and turned the cam on!
[00:32] <blastron> slart: Yes, this problem only occurred very recently.
[00:32] <WorkingOnWise> Slart: the Nvidia is ALSA, and the Realtek is OSS, but if the sound subsystem were the only diff, wouldnt it be the same device, or at least same make? afaik, Nvidia and Realtex dont share any components...
[00:33] <NativeAngels> hey Starnestommy
[00:33] <ejer> Christin18: i gave you a command to try
[00:33] <cicero_b_> anyone know how to shut down xwindows (go into server mode)
[00:33] <Slart> blastron: hmm.. can you pastebin the output from "sudo iptables -L"
[00:33] <rhineheart_m> Is there a way that putty will only allow connection remotely with a verification file/script/whatever before it allow you to log-in?
[00:33] <Slart> !paste | blastron
[00:33] <ubotu> blastron: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[00:33] <reiner> again me: /usr/include is not correct
[00:33] <sammyF> dmoerner: thanks a lot. It seems like it worked :)
[00:33] <gold44> nickrud: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/abiword/ is for all versions of ubuntu? 7.08, 7.10?
[00:33] <reiner> I need to know where are the correct C header files for the running kernel
[00:34] <dmoerner> sammyF, excellent
[00:34] <ejer> rhineheart_m: that is done on server side
[00:34] <Christin18> ejer: think I missed it, had some net issues, can you repeat it ?
[00:34] <Slart> cicero_b_: ctrl+alt+f1, log in .. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[00:34] <ejer> rhineheart_m: you disable password logins
[00:34] <blastron> slart: One moment, I'll see what I can do about that.
[00:34] <cicero_b_> Slart: thanks -- i'll try it
[00:34] <nickrud> gold44: yup. That's why you want to use apt tools, it figures out all at stuff for you
[00:34] <ejer> ok, Christina18 in the terminal window try typing 'sudo gpasswd -a yourusername plugdev' with no quotes and replace yourusername with well... your user name :)
[00:34] <sammyF> dmoerner: of course, I'll only know for sure next time I reboot ... and I'm postponing that ;)
[00:34] <rhineheart_m> ejer: how would it be accomplished?
[00:34] <icesword> gold44, that sort of thing you can only connect to it with apt-get
[00:35] <prince_jammys> ejer :)
[00:35] <Slart> cicero_b_: if you reboot, x will still start.. but until then, it's shut down
[00:35] <WhoaItsPhil> i've done everything in th eofficial ubuntu guide and made sure that Xgl is installed but still cannot get Compiz to work...when i try to change the visual effects from none to normal or extra is says "The Composite extension is not available"
[00:35] <Christin18> ejer: oh, I didn't miss that. I have typed that command
[00:35] <gold44> nickrud:  icesword thx
[00:35] <ejer> Christin18: unplug cam, reboot, login, then replug cam
[00:35] <nickrud> WhoaItsPhil: try typing   compiz   in a terminal, you'll get better error messages maybe
[00:36] <ejer> rhineheart_m: you comment out the usepasswordauth in sshd_config
[00:36] <reiner> can someone help? need to know where the C header files are
[00:36] <Christin18> ejer: ok, brb
[00:36] <reiner> during installation I have been aske
[00:36] <reiner> d
[00:36] <ejer> or set it to no actually i think
[00:36] <Slart> reiner: c header files for what? I've got some here for my tetris game.. you want those? =)
[00:36] <blastron> Slart: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56804/
[00:36] <prettyricky> is there a codec pack? I have been using bittorrent movies and they dont play with VLC?
[00:36] <ejer> rhineheart_m: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/530
[00:36] <rhineheart_m> ejer: after which how would I access the server then with putty?
[00:36] <reiner> kernel source C header files
[00:36] <nickrud> reiner: did you install build-essential , that gets you the basic c headers
[00:36] <Slart> reiner: hmm.. hang on.. you've got them installed?
[00:36] <sammyF> dmoerner: scrap that. just installed something randomly from synaptic and had no errors, so it really worked
[00:36] <nickrud> reiner: in that case,   sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[00:37] <icesword> prettyricky, you mean you can watch it while download ,not sure
[00:37]  * sammyF does the "happy ubuntu user dance"
[00:37] <WhoaItsPhil> nickrud, it's quite long, can i copy/paste it to you in a pm?
[00:37] <speeddemon8803> haha sammy, glad your happy :)
[00:37] <cicero_b_> Slart: this is odd -- when i it ^+alt+f1, it seems i lost the keyboard
[00:37] <reiner> slart: did not install build-esseential
[00:37] <nickrud> WhoaItsPhil: better is putting it on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org , if I don't recognize the error someone else might
[00:37] <prettyricky> No watch it after it has downloaded.
[00:37] <nouMenon> I'm trying to delete deluge using the command [sudo apt-get remove deluge] even though I can start the program with the name "deluge" it keeps telling me the package is not found when I go to delete it. I tried "Deluge" as well. Any suggestions?
[00:37] <icesword> cicero_b_, what ?lost what?
[00:37] <two_bits> is there anyway i can check which boot parameters that I used for the current session?
[00:38] <Starnestommy> two_bits: I think cat /proc/cmdline
[00:38] <cicero_b_> my keyboard types gibberish
[00:38] <cicero_b_> or nothing at all
[00:38] <sammyF> two_bits: do you mean the grub params?
[00:38] <two_bits> yeah
[00:38] <sammyF> two_bits: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[00:38] <two_bits> thanks, that did it
[00:38] <WhoaItsPhil> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56805/
[00:38] <Slart> reiner: mine are in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.22-14
[00:39] <WhoaItsPhil> i notice it still says Xgl is not present...i coulda swore i just installed it
[00:39] <ps3noob> Hi.How do i disable online repositories from command line and install packages only from cd?
[00:39] <Slart> cicero_b_: huh? you've got some fancy wireless keyboard?
[00:39] <cicero_b_> no -- old school dell (like 10 years old)
[00:39] <nickrud> WhoaItsPhil: what video card are you using?
[00:39] <speeddemon8803> !repositories > speeddemon8803
[00:39] <WhoaItsPhil> ATI radeon 9800 pro
[00:39] <cicero_b_> hooked into kvm with four boxes on it
[00:39] <der|kunstler> how can I disable compositing from X ?
[00:39] <two_bits> i have another question: i've heard using irqfixup can cause serious performance problems... is this true?
[00:39] <Slart> blastron: hmm.. that looks ok.. wonder what else could be wrong
[00:40] <ejer> cicero_b_: try manually setting your keyboard layout
[00:40] <nickrud> WhoaItsPhil: did you install the restricted ati driver, system->admin->restricted manager ?
[00:40] <prettyricky> is there a codec pack? I have been using downloading bittorrent movies and they dont play with VLC?
[00:40] <WhoaItsPhil> yes
[00:40] <mIKEjONES> can someone tell me why ubuntu's xchat packages don't have channel and private messaging enabled?
[00:40] <Slart> cicero_b_: shouldn't be a problem then... nothing works? caps-lock light?
[00:40] <mIKEjONES> my channel/private message tabs don't change color to red when I get messages
[00:40] <blastron> slart: If it helps clarify the problem, also very recently I've been getting system crashes every two or three days.
[00:40] <nickrud> WhoaItsPhil: then what I'd do is uninstall xserver-xgl , log out and back in, and then run  fglrxinfo , make sure I was using the ati 8.37.6 driver (the one that comes with ubuntu)
[00:41] <Slart> mIKEjONES: private messaging disabled? are you really really sure?
[00:41] <Christina18> ejer: Hi, now I have rebooted the com and replugged the camera. But seems nothing has happened
[00:41] <der|kunstler> how can I disable Compositing from X in 7.10 ?
[00:41] <prince_jammys> !medibuntu | prettyricky: i think you want this
[00:41] <ubotu> prettyricky: i think you want this: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[00:41] <ejer> i am stuck then Christina18
[00:41] <WhoaItsPhil> k brb
[00:41] <mIKEjONES> Slart, even then, if I'm not looking at a channel and someone says something in that channel X-chat should change the color of that tab to red
[00:41] <Christina18> ejer: ok, thnx anyway :(
[00:41] <blastron> slart: I usually don't keep a keyboard or monitor attached to the computer, so I'm not sure if it was an actual kernel panic, but it has necessitated hard resets each time.
[00:41] <ejer> i would do it in hard drive mode, that should always work
[00:42] <Slart> mIKEjONES: might be some setting... I don't use xchat myself.. still using xchat-gnome
[00:42] <Odd-rationale> what is the kernel line for grub for booting ubuntu on sda3?
[00:42] <prettyricky> prince_jammys----> thank you!
[00:42] <AutoMatriX> ejer, thank you so much, problem is solved
[00:42] <ejer> Christina18: you could try booting from the ubuntu livecd and see if it works... then you would know it is a problem with your config somewhere... but it is hard to troubleshoot
[00:42] <prince_jammys> ejer: could this help tje camera problem? https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-bugs/2006-May/014837.html
[00:42] <weeder> im having a problem compiling a piece of software for ubuntu
[00:42] <Slart> blastron: can you ping the machine?
[00:42] <ejer> prince_jammys: yes, but launchpad is down so I can't see resolution
[00:42] <Christina18> ejer: I have tried on two different computers
[00:43] <weeder> when i ./configure it goes well for a while and the i get configure: error: Package requirements (sqlite3 >= 3.2)
[00:43] <Christina18> ejer: both using same OS
[00:43] <weeder> ive got sqlite 3.4 installed
[00:43] <ejer> prince_jammys: modprobing ehci_hcd is in the bug report, had her do that
[00:43] <blastron> slart: Nope.
[00:43] <prince_jammys> ejer: ah

[00:49] <Slart> AntiUSA: right-click.. properties.. "open with"
[00:49] <prince_jammys> !defaultapp | AntiUSA
[00:49] <ubotu> AntiUSA: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. In Kubuntu, Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure and then hit "File Associations"
[00:49] <Plight> I'm trying to send e-mail with evolution using 'sendmail' and I get this error "Error while performing operation.

[00:49] <weeder>   video transcoding (experimental)
[00:49] <weeder>   ffmpeg     : disabled
[00:49] <AndrewB> Plight: try it as root or using sudo
[00:49] <weeder> i need transcoding
[00:50] <Slart> blastron: so.. no network traffic in.. no traffic out.. I'm starting to think you have other problems than the firewall
[00:50] <CarlFK> weeder: you mean transcode ?
[00:50] <WhiteNerd> How well are Ubuntu Wi-fi drivers?
[00:50] <dmoerner> WhiteNerd, for what
[00:50] <Plight> i was using the graphical interface i don't know how to use evolution in CLI
[00:50] <blastron> slart: Oh, I can get network traffic out, I loaded up a couple of pages via lynx as soon as I got it to reboot.
[00:50] <speeddemon8803> whitenerd, as good as the people who make them :)
[00:50] <jeffMASTERflex> Plight: also, make sure you have sendmail installed. it's not installed by default
[00:50] <CVD-PR> me fui
[00:50] <Plight> oh
[00:50] <weeder> say if it was encoded in mov and the player only worked with divx or somthing, it would encode it as it streams to the player
[00:50] <Plight> what's the package name?
[00:51] <AndrewB> sendmail iirc
[00:51] <WhiteNerd> dmoerner: For wireless network connections. Like laptops and all
[00:51] <jeffMASTERflex> Plight: sudo apt-get install sendmail
[00:51] <dmoerner> WhiteNerd, it all depends on the chip you have
[00:51] <CarlFK> WhiteNerd:  thats kinda vauge.  it is like asking "how are cars"
[00:51] <weeder> aha i think its after i get to ./configure --enable-video-transcoding
[00:51] <CarlFK> or something.
[00:51] <AntiUSA> slart, that is temporary isn't it?
[00:51] <CarlFK> weeder: what are you trying to build?
[00:51] <WhiteNerd> CarlFK: Sorry I'm looking for a general/overall thought, since at the moment the laptop is't with me

[00:53] <Slart> blastron: ok.. just to make sure.. try these too.. "sudo iptables -L -t mangle" and "sudo iptables -L -t nat", they should all be empty with ACCEPT as policy
[00:54] <TheZealot> cafepress doesn't seem to have ones on clear decal material, it's all white sticker material

[00:54] <speeddemon8803> !shipit > TheZealot ....they come with the live cd's you order from there :)
[00:54] <norml_advocate> when I type "gparted" it says only the root may run it.  how do I get into root

[00:55] <Slart> blastron: bah
[00:55] <speeddemon8803> sudo gparted
[00:55] <Slart> !sudo | norml_advocate

[00:55] <Slart> blastron: hehe.. nice to be able to give you a reason to do that =)

[00:56] <ubotu> normal_advocate: The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option.

[01:03] <Rowanaki> reikalusikka: Yup. All changes were done as root, saved, logged out of user, rebooted
[01:03] <norml_advocate> i am downloading the cd. but i already have it on my computer

[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> thechris: what are you trying to play in audacity?.. mp3, or what
[01:15] <thechris> but i'm trying to test out a microphone, so i need something that can record
[01:15] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: so I copy exactly what you wrote, then do ./myprogram ?
[01:15] <Rowanaki> So how do I get Xorg to actually use the changes I made in its configuration file after saving as root and rebooting?
[01:16] <thechris> IndyGunFreak: "sine wave", generated from audacity, and really, i want to record
[01:16] <reikalusikka> yeah and replace arvauspeli.cpp with yourprogram.cpp and arvauspeli with yourprogram
[01:16] <Rowanaki> I mean, I want to turn off the tap on click of my tuochpad...
[01:16] <IndyGunFreak> thechris: now i'm not sure on mic.... some chipsets have very spotty record support
[01:16] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: got it, thanks!
[01:16] <Rowanaki> touchpad*
[01:16] <reikalusikka> be sure to be in the folder of your .cpp
[01:16] <acee1237> where is the file to configure your network devices duplexing transfer speed etc?
[01:16] <Rowanaki> I use qsynaptics and stuff and it says an option I set doesn't exist.. even though it does
[01:18] <tdawgedogg> sorry im a n00b whats kde?
[01:18] <prince_jammys> tdawgedogg: another desktop manager, like gnome
[01:18] <prince_jammys> !kde | tdawgedogg
[01:18] <ubotu> tdawgedogg: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE version is 3.5.8 for Gutsy and Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information.
[01:19] <tdawgedogg> so if im using gutsy im using kde which sucks?
[01:19] <jeffMASTERflex> i think different DE's are a tough thing to grasp at first for the noobs. they usually can't believe that you can switch and use an entirely different interface
[01:19] <prince_jammys> tdawgedogg: no. you are probably using gnome. and whether kde sucks or not is a matter of opinion
[01:19] <rhineheart_m> how to remove user in ubuntu gutsy?
[01:19] <jeffMASTERflex> tdawgedogg: gutsy comes in gnome and ide flavors. ubuntu and kubuntu, respectively
[01:19] <reikalusikka> If I chande to KDE, will some programs stop to function?
[01:19] <tdawgedogg> jeffmasterflex: I understand the concept but this is my first dayt with linux lol
[01:20] <insert_> aeww
[01:20] <prince_jammys> reikalusikka: no
[01:20] <Grim76> tdawgedogg, KDE, Gnome, XFCE Windows manangers are a preference....find which one works for you.
[01:20] <prince_jammys> tdawgedogg: reikalusikka: you dont even have to change. you can have both
[01:20] <sdsheeks> I really have to commend the ubuntu folks.
[01:20] <reikalusikka> so I heard KDE is more powerfull and just simply better than gnome, are there any things I should be aware of before changing?
[01:20] <reikalusikka> prince_jammys: oh ok
[01:20] <reikalusikka> how can I choose between them?
[01:20] <sdsheeks> I've been using Linux in some for since 96 and I can say it has come a very long way.
[01:20] <tdawgedogg> how do i switch between different desktop environments
[01:21] <prince_jammys> reikalusikka: you choose your session when you log in
[01:21] <sdsheeks> I have now fully replaced my OS with Ubuntu and couldn't be happier.
[01:21] <reikalusikka> ok
[01:21] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: I just did that, it said "bash: conversation.cpp: command not found"
[01:21] <pfn> holy nick-list batman!
[01:21] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: conversation.cpp is the program
[01:21] <reikalusikka> ahorriblemess: I think you have to download some library
[01:21] <pfn> Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer.
[01:21] <pfn> ^^ wtf does this mean?  it's ambiguous
[01:21] <tdawgedogg> when i log in....so if i click the logg off i will have options for different environements or do i have to download htem
[01:21] <tdawgedogg> them
[01:21] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: man... ok haha.
[01:21] <pfn> does the desktop cd that I need to check for not include the live cd?
[01:22] <reikalusikka> ahorriblemess: let me check :D
[01:22] <pfn> or does the default download not include the livecd?
[01:22] <credible> pfn: the desktop cd is the livecd
[01:22] <prince_jammys> reikalusikka: tdawgedogg:  if you get both, your menus will have many applications, and you'll probably want to edit them.  then you'll have a separate menu for gnome and one for kde.  other than that, everything should work normally
[01:22] <credible> the "alternate" cd is a traditional installer
[01:22] <pfn> that message needs to be clearer, thanks
[01:22] <pfn> eh?
[01:22] <jeffMASTERflex> pfn: the regular install disk is the livecd. the alternate disc has a text based installer only.
[01:22] <pfn> so it's the "desktop cd" and the "alternate desktop cd" the "alternate desktop cd" does not have the live cd?
[01:23] <pfn> ok, thanks
[01:23] <tdawgedogg> you know how in OSX how when ur in a program all the file edit view and shit goes to the top bar
[01:23] <jeffMASTERflex> pfn: correct
[01:23] <pfn> I just need a VM I can shell into to test a few things
[01:23] <tdawgedogg> is there any way i can get that with ubuntu
[01:23]  * pfn needs a livecd
[01:23] <sdsheeks> pfn: for install?
[01:23] <jeffMASTERflex> pfn: then download the regular desktop disc
[01:23] <reikalusikka> ahorriblemess: type 'sudo apt-get install g++'
[01:23] <pfn> jeffMASTERflex, yeah, doing that... the checkbox was a little ambiguous, making sure I got the right thing
[01:23] <lakcaj> tdawgedogg, I really don't think so
[01:23] <reikalusikka> it should install the right libraries
[01:23] <pfn> thanks
[01:24] <tdawgedogg> also the top and bottom bars just look kinda plain...
[01:24] <pfn> sdsheeks, no, for booting a VM and testing some pam stuff
[01:24] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: ok, thanks a lot for finding that out. I was looking on the anjuta site and I read something about g++ but there was a list... I got a little confused I guess. Thank you though
[01:24] <tdawgedogg> besides compiz fusion what graphical tools can u use to snaz up ubuntu
[01:24] <sdsheeks> pfn: just download the regular desktop install iso then.  It is bootable and goes into the gui.
[01:24] <tdawgedogg> can I install something similar to the leopard dock
[01:24] <pfn> sdsheeks, yeah, already doing that, just wanted to make sure I was getting the right disk, the message, as I've stated, is ambiguous
[01:24] <reikalusikka> ahorriblemess: or you can go to synaptic packet manager and install from there
[01:24] <jeffMASTERflex> tdawgedogg: if you want to customize check out www.gnome-look.org
[01:24] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: I already have it
[01:25] <tdawgedogg> woot thanks
[01:25] <reikalusikka> ahorriblemess: well then go to synaptic package manager
[01:25] <sdsheeks> pfn: Understand.  Yes I would think you have the right CD.  In the GUI it should have some installed apps such as firefox.
[01:25] <hwilde> can I use wine to simulate ie for those stinking webforms that wont work in firefox ?
[01:25] <reikalusikka> ahorriblemess: and search for 'g++'
[01:25] <jeffMASTERflex> tdawgedogg: also, appearance settings you can find in System/Preferences/Appearance
[01:25] <TheZealot> Anyone know a good battery power monitor package?
[01:25] <pfn> sdsheeks, thanks, all I really need is an xterm  :)
[01:25] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: wait, is the command simply "$program.cpp -Wall -g -o program name" ?
[01:25] <sdsheeks> pfn: grab the server edition then
[01:26] <reikalusikka> ahorriblemess: yeah
[01:26]  * pfn downloads it as well, just in case
[01:26] <sdsheeks> pfn: lighter weight and keeps you in the terminal
[01:26] <sdsheeks> pfn: or you could download an already created vmware image
[01:26] <ahorriblemess> reikalusikka: ok i wanted to make sure I had it right. I'm going to be afk for a bit, thanks for the help so far I appreciate it
[01:26] <reikalusikka> if nothing seems to happen it compiled it
[01:26] <reikalusikka> :D
[01:26] <reikalusikka> np
[01:26] <pfn> sdsheeks, I'm sure a livecd will be smaller than an existing vm image
[01:26] <tdawgedogg> anyone know how i can install a leopard dock
[01:26] <pfn> thanks for the help
[01:26] <tdawgedogg> sorry i have crazy questions 2nite
[01:26] <jeffMASTERflex> !vant
[01:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vant - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:27] <sdsheeks> pfn: server edition of a vmware image is 188mb
[01:27] <pfn> sdsheeks, link?  :)
[01:27] <hwilde> tdawgedogg, just google it you'll find it
[01:27] <sdsheeks> pfn: hold
[01:27] <josspyker> hwilde: yep
[01:27] <tdawgedogg> i saw it but the instructions were hard
[01:27] <jeffMASTERflex> tdawgedogg: avant window navigator
[01:27] <jeffMASTERflex> tdawgedogg: what do you mean? you can install in synaptic
[01:27] <tdawgedogg> i want a dock that can be downloaded in the package download manager so i dont have to compile it or something
[01:27] <hwilde> !synaptic | tdawgedogg
[01:27] <ubotu> tdawgedogg: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[01:27] <mikebot> Is it possible to have as my screensaver just an animated gif?
[01:28] <jeffMASTERflex> tdawgedogg: i suggest you take a look around and get used to using ubuntu before trying to make any radical changes.
[01:28] <prince_jammys> that is a very good suggestion
[01:28] <Lifeisfunny> newb here ... I have some mount point issues for a couple usb disks.  I thought I could designate their mount point but I get a warning box when I use the gpanel applet to mount and it doesn't mount so I look under Details and it says:   mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newline, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /)
[01:28] <sdsheeks> pfn: I can say that this link has a good working copy.  I have several vmware images with it running.
[01:28] <hwilde> jeffMASTERflex, some ppl just want it to look cool...
[01:28] <sdsheeks> pfn: http://www.thoughtpolice.co.uk/vmware/#ubuntu7.10
[01:28] <tdawgedogg> there is no avant in the package download manager

[01:29] <jimlay_> I hate to ask this but does anyone have a glx on a newer nvidia card working with amd64 in gutsy?

[01:29] <faileas> pfn: wget tends impressive speeds ;p
[01:29] <hwilde> jeffMASTERflex, some ppl all they want to do is customize the gui.  if ubuntu wants to win the mainstream they have to make it easy to just click and say wow
[01:30] <tdawgedogg> i have an amd 64 and a nvidia 7600 gt and gutsy and its working fine
[01:30] <pfn> faileas, that depends on a number of factors
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> tdawgedogg: you can download hte .deb files for avant from getdeb.net
[01:30] <josspyker> hwilde: ubuntu is eay
[01:30] <pfn> faileas, e.g. with a host that only has a 512kbps link, you aren't going to get impressive speeds

[01:46] <pfn> sdsheeks, didn't get a chance to run it, I was running the livecd  :)
[01:46] <iter> AntiUSA: short answer yes but depends a lot on the hardware
[01:46] <AntiUSA> i see
[01:46] <sdsheeks> pfn: cool my latest use of that image was to setup an amanda backup server.
[01:46] <pfn> man, ubuntu sure is pretty... makes me want to setup a linux desktop machine  :)
[01:46] <prince_jammys> reikalusikka: this i don't know.  i probably means you'll get a headache trying to get it to work
[01:47] <AntiUSA> so 4096 encrfyption would probably make my lappie wine
[01:47] <reikalusikka> :D
[01:47] <sdsheeks> pfn: sure is
[01:47] <reikalusikka> x3100 is still pretty "powerfull" for an integrated
[01:47] <pfn> why doesn't ubuntu use pam_stack/system-auth like redhat?
[01:47] <mbrush> i could do without the brown
[01:47] <iter> AntiUSA: I suggest using truecrypt to create a container and keep your pr0n in there
[01:47] <reikalusikka> well, I'll go to #compiz-fusion
[01:47] <sdsheeks> pfn: crossover completes it for me...I need those programs
[01:47] <reikalusikka> :D
[01:47] <pfn> it'd be so much nicer than how ubuntu has it, imo
[01:47] <AntiUSA> lol
[01:47] <reikalusikka> thanks for answers
[01:47] <sdsheeks> iter: lol
[01:47] <AntiUSA> porn is the last of my worries
[01:47]  * pfn goes back to trying to figure out why cyrus-imapd isn't talking to saslauthd
[01:47] <prince_jammys> your swiss account info
[01:48] <iter> AntiUSA: with a nick like that I could have guessed as much
[01:48] <AntiUSA> HAH!
[01:48] <sdsheeks> iter: lol good point never picked up on that
[01:48] <mbrush> AntiUSA: do you want to encrypt the whole drive?
[01:48] <prince_jammys> with all that porn you keep in the safe
[01:48] <bkr> hey, anyone know how to access usb external drive from a livecd boot?
[01:48] <AntiUSA> i was considering it
[01:48] <mbrush> do you need to?
[01:48] <sdsheeks> haha
[01:48] <jmdc> mbrush - is installing firefox a problem?
[01:48] <iter> AntiUSA: why encrypt all your system files? no need really and all it will do is be a PITA down the road
[01:48] <pfn> bkr plug it in and find it under /media or /mnt ?
[01:49] <AntiUSA> well I was just concerned that if I just encrypt documents then won't there be traces of temp files/
[01:49]  * pfn hates truecrypt 5
[01:49] <sdsheeks> AntiUSA: what kind of documents?
[01:49] <bkr> pfn: thanks... i didn't see it under mnt boot i'll check media
[01:49] <sdsheeks> :)
[01:49] <mbrush> jmdc: no not really, I was just not wanting to install the extra 30MB
[01:49] <thechris> ok, new issue
[01:49] <AntiUSA> I'm not a terrorist if that's what you're getting at
[01:49] <reikalusikka> prince_jammys: what about beryl, any idea?:D and how does it differ from compiz fusion
[01:50] <sdsheeks> AntiUSA: nope just got me curious is all
[01:50] <AntiUSA> hahaha
[01:50] <AntiUSA> I'm with the Houston Revolution Club
[01:50] <thechris> The microphone will play over the speakers, but i can't get any recording software to see it
[01:50] <credible> reikalusikka: compiz fusion replaced beryl
[01:50] <sdsheeks> Houston, TX?
[01:50] <eshaase> does ubuntu come installed by default with vpn software setup?
[01:50] <prince_jammys> reikalusikka: beryl is history
[01:50] <thechris> so the mic works, but is invisible
[01:50] <jmdc> mbush - if you want to be super minimalist, there is always lynx ;-)
[01:50] <reikalusikka> prince_jammys:ok thanks
[01:50] <AntiUSA> yep
[01:50] <Lifeisfunny> I guess no one knows, I'll look in google
[01:50] <sdsheeks> AntiUSA: I travel there every other week via continental express
[01:50] <rhineheart_m> is there a way to access the files share in the network (windows machines) from ubuntu server?
[01:50] <WeedGrinch> I really need help: My goal is to make it so my site is hosted locally.  I have <IP_ADDRESS> to point to my server, now what?
[01:50] <sdsheeks> AntiUSA: hang around the Galeria area
[01:50] <prince_jammys> reikalusikka: beryl has merged with compiz to become compiz fusion
[01:50] <amenado> mbrush-> w3m is installed, try that
[01:51] <AntiUSA> I have, haha
[01:51] <sdsheeks> prince_jammys: and it is pretty cool
[01:51] <reikalusikka> prince_jammys: oh ok :) thanks
[01:51] <prince_jammys> reikalusikka: this was done mostly to confuse everyone
[01:51] <iter> prince_jammys: lol
[01:51] <sdsheeks> lol
[01:51] <jmdc> Lifeisfunny - how did you set the mount point?
[01:51] <reikalusikka> :D
[01:51] <reikalusikka> hehe
[01:51] <hw00djohn> hey, I'm trying to get my HP VGA webcam to work but am having trouble.  I read about a package called 'easycam' and i'm trying to install that, but it's not working either (asking for a cd)  i'd really like to get my webcam working again.
[01:51] <bkr> okay so nothing shows under media or mnt when I plug in the usb external drive... any suggestions on mounting it?
[01:51] <AntiUSA> to give you a general idea of what the HRC is into, you can check out www.revcom.us
[01:51] <AntiUSA> that's the website of the paper we distro
[01:51] <sdsheeks> hw00djohn: this on a laptop?
[01:51] <Exershio> Is there any program I can use to overclock my Radeon 9550?
[01:52] <Exershio> I know what speeds it's capable of
[01:52] <hw00djohn> yes, but the webcam is not internal.  It's one that i have to plug in thru usb
[01:52] <AntiUSA> anyway, is there a problem with temp files?
[01:52] <rhineheart_m> Hello! Is there a way to access the files share in the network (windows machines) from ubuntu server?
[01:52] <amenado> bkr  on a terminal if you type mount, is it listed?
[01:52] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: yea install samba
[01:52] <faileas> bkr: check if it shows up in /dev if it does you can mount it manually with mount
[01:52] <AntiUSA> if I keep documents encrypted won't there be unencrypted temp files?
[01:52] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: then mount //ipaddress/sharename /mointpoint
[01:52] <fredsua> good evening
[01:53] <mbrush> jmdc: xterm doesn't do copy?
[01:53] <sdsheeks> AntiUSA: it's possible yes
[01:53] <hw00djohn> sdsheeks yes, this is on a laptop, however the cam is not built in, i bought it seperately and it plugs in thru USB.  I tried to set it up with ekiga, but ekiga didn't recognize it.  i've been scouring the forums and google with no luck
[01:53] <fredsua> does someone here knows how to make a DVD player play DVDs?
[01:53] <AntiUSA>  thats' why last night i was asking for wiping tools for linux but no one knew of any
[01:53] <sdsheeks> hw00djohn: i'm looking around now.  I have never tried mine.
[01:53] <emma> Hi. I have a home partition and I only have one user (myself) on my system. My home directory is called emma.  I wish to do a fresh install.  Could someone tell me how to go about doing that so I can retain my old home directory after the fresh install?
[01:53] <todd> Hello, Is ther a driver out there for philips WebCam works great in MS junk but slowin moving to linux
[01:53] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: how would I access it?
[01:53] <prince_jammys> fredsua: do you have libdvdcss2?
[01:53] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: did you apt-get install samba?
[01:53] <jmdc> mbrush - try selecting text, then middle clicking
[01:54] <fredsua> yes I do
[01:54] <optx> hi can somebody tell me how i get ubuntu running under the vista bootloader ? i dont get it right :(
[01:54] <rhineheart_m> yeah..
[01:54] <mbrush> jmdc: ah
[01:54] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: and a share exists on the windows machine?
[01:54] <mbrush> jmdc:nope
[01:54] <fredsua> prince_jammys: I do and it still does not work
[01:54] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: yeah
[01:54] <Jordan_U> AntiUSA, Only if you open them in apps that use temp file in an area of the file system which is not encrypted
[01:54] <Jordan_U> AntiUSA, You can even make an encrypted /tmp, though that may slow certain things down :)
[01:54] <jmdc> mbrush - well, it works for me
[01:54] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: then do sudo mount //ipaddress/sharename /mountpoint
[01:54] <josspyker> emma: is home on a different partition?
[01:54] <prince_jammys> fredsua: frustrating.  what player do you use? and have you tried different DVDs?
[01:55] <emma> Yes my home directory is on its own partition.
[01:55] <rhineheart_m> mount //ipaddress/sharename /mountpoint?? can't understat
[01:55] <Exershio> Is there any program I can use to overclock my Radeon 9550? I know what speeds it's capable of
[01:55] <sfrailer> hi all, can i get some help diagnosing this ubuntu issue? i run dhclient on my ubuntu box, nbtstat -R (to clear WINS cache) on my windows box, and cannot ping my ubuntu box (by name) from windows
[01:55] <mbrush> jmdc: it launches the now installed fifefox to this page: http://www.libhunspell-1.1-0/
[01:55] <mbrush> hahaha
[01:55] <mbrush> middle click ads?
[01:55] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: ok you know the IP address of the windows machine?
[01:55] <emma> I had originally thought I could sign up again with the same user name and it would all just work but there seems to be some technicalities. Like the installer is going to move the old directory and call it emma.00001 or something.
[01:55] <AntiUSA> openoffice does make temp files, right?
[01:55] <bkr> amenado: it finally came up under media, but I'm trying to transfer files from the hdd to the external so I can wipe the system...it won't boot currently
[01:55] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: yeah I know
[01:55] <r00723r0> Hi, I rebooted my computer and now there are no audio devices. Any help?
[01:55] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: okay then go to a terminal window
[01:56] <bkr> don't know the best way to view the files with a filemanager
[01:56] <bkr> so I can see them easily instead of with an ls
[01:56] <bkr> recommend a good file manager?
[01:56] <jmdc> AntiUSA - I would imagine they would be in your home directory
[01:56] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: type sudo mount //ipaddress of the windows machine/sharename /mountpoint
[01:56] <fredsua> prince_jammys: I have a Plextor PX-712A DVD-RW.  I've tried playing backup movies and they play fine but when I try playing a movie from blockbuster or others that I have it can't read it.
[01:56] <AntiUSA> ok
[01:56] <AntiUSA> thanks all
[01:56] <AntiUSA> brb
[01:56] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: for example sudo mount //<IP_ADDRESS>/myshare /mnt/myshare
[01:56] <amenado> bkr command line is good , use it
[01:56] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: how about in the sharename and mount point?
[01:56] <eshaase> does ubuntu come installed by default with vpn software setup?
[01:57] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: for the sharename you would use whatever you set the sharename as in windows
[01:57] <kevin_121> so. in appearance preferences -> visual effects, the custom radio button will not stay selected... anyone know why this could be?
[01:57] <Raiders32> how do you prevent a new file browser opening up each time you insert a CD?  I'm using Gutsy
[01:57] <josspyker> emma: make a backup first,do a fresh install and assign home the partion and don't format it
[01:57] <Shuggle> can anyone here help me with grub?
[01:57] <bkr> amenado: only when tranferring all files or a few files... I'm trying to tranfer large numbers of files but not the whole drive
[01:57] <jmdc> eshaase - no
[01:57] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: for the mountpoint it is up to you where you mount it to, but the mountpoint has to exist already so create it if you need to
[01:57] <jordan_> !anyone | Shuggle
[01:57] <ubotu> Shuggle: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:57] <mbrush> jmdc: wierdest thing ever, I just middle clicked xterm and it started installing something automatically in the background downloading stuff from ubuntu
[01:57] <jordan_> mbrush, Middle click is paste
[01:57] <fredsua> prince_jammys: I'm speculating reinstalling Ubuntu
[01:58] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: Is samba secured?
[01:58] <prince_jammys> fredsua: i don't know the solution, sorry.  i actually just got a dvd drive on this computer and havent gotten around to dealing with that
[01:58] <mbrush> jordan: I don't know what the hell happened ... there shouldn't have been anything in the clipboard
[01:58] <jordan_> mbrush, And anything you paste into a terminal is interpreted ( including carridge returns )
[01:58] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: don't think so
[01:58] <prince_jammys> fredsua: i really doubt you need to reinstall
[01:58] <jmdc> mbrush - middle click pastes whatever was last selected. whatever was last selected was a install command with a newline
[01:58] <amenado> bkr  use regexp and selected directories
[01:58] <emma> josspyker,  how about doing this:  mv /home/emma /home/oldemma
[01:58] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: so you couldn't recommend it, right?
[01:59] <fredsua> prince_jammys: Thanks for trying.
[01:59] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: for what I use it for sure I would recommend it, but your use may be different than mine.
[01:59] <Shuggle> I installed Sabayon linux to my harddrive and told it not to install grub. Now when I try to test boot sabayon from the grub command line (before editing menu.list) grub tells me that the partition does not exist
[01:59] <jordan_> mbrush, It's also 'copy' when you have text selected, have you middle clicked any text recently?
[01:59] <emma> josspyker,  then doing the reinstall, not formating the home partition, and then doing mv /home/oldemma /home/emma
[01:59] <jackfusion> hi all
[01:59] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: what are your concerns with it being secure or nonsecure?
[01:59] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: you're using it for what
[01:59] <hw00djohn> sdsheeks: any luck with the webcam issue?
[01:59] <jackfusion> How is every one doing tonight?
[01:59] <fredsua> Is there an expert on linux Ubuntu in the house?  I'm having trouble playing DVD's
[01:59] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: to copy files back and forth from one of my windows machines
[01:59] <fus10nx> Has anyone here properly configured an HDMI motherboard or graphics card to work FULLY in Ubuntu? I can currently get video working but no audio. In windows its not a problem. I am just debating weather or not to get a new motherboard so I want to see if anyone has gotten it to work properly and if so what motherboard or card? Thanks.
[02:00] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: non sensitive stuff just documents and music
[02:00] <sdsheeks> hw00djohn: nothing yet
[02:00] <Indiadev_Techie> fredsua: ???
[02:00] <jmdc> eshaase - you probably want to install one of the vpn plugins for network manager. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN
[02:00] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: can the internet access the shared folders over the network?
[02:00] <jordan_> !offtopic | jackfusion
[02:00] <ubotu> jackfusion: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:00] <Indiadev_Techie> fredsua: did u update ur dvd codecs in ubuntu ???
[02:00] <mbrush> jordan_ : I must've it's the only explanaition ...
[02:00] <kevin_121> fus10nx: i have not heard of anyone doing audio yet over hdmi. i think there may be legal setbacks involved, but im not entirely sure
[02:00] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: not if you don't allow it through a router or windows firewall
[02:00] <josspyker> emma: use grsync for a backup to be sure,install ubuntu and assing your home part.without formatting
[02:01] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: but my theory is if someone wants it bad enough they will get it
[02:01] <jackfusion> what raid software dose ubuntu server use?
[02:01] <fredsua> Indiadev_Techie:  Yes, I've updated all the codes.  the drive plays some of my backup movies fine, but dies not play movies from regular DVDs
[02:01] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: if that someone could have access to the router's firewall right/
[02:01] <codyduncan> anyone have any idea why writing to my external just became extremely slow?  why near everything is now going really slow?  why startup just takes forever?  (just the first one will do for now)
[02:02] <prettyricky> My player plays the movies but sometimes I get the blue screen of death>>>>>
[02:02] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: sure
[02:02] <fredsua> Indiadev_Techie: are you an expert in linux?
[02:02] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: how would the users access their home folders from windows machine?
[02:02] <Indiadev_Techie> fredsua: no im not...but trying to figure out ur problem....
[02:03] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: samba you can setup the linux home folders and map them in windows
[02:03] <solexious> [QQ] I need to make pport have super user privlages at startup, how do I do that?
[02:03] <sdsheeks> oh crap
[02:03] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: map them in windows? like using my networkplaces?
[02:03] <jmdc> codyduncan: maybe some process is zombified and running wild. try running top
[02:03] <sdsheeks> Forgot about the lunar eclipse!!
[02:03] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: yea
[02:03] <jordan_> fredsua, You probably need libdvdcss2
[02:03] <sdsheeks> east coast people remember anytime now a full lunar eclipse
[02:04] <fredsua> Indiadev_Techie: Is very frustrating.  I've tried different DVD media such as VLC and gxine with the same results.
[02:04] <soulburner> is there somewhere i can change my keyboard configuration?
[02:04] <jordan_> !dvd | fredsua
[02:04] <ubotu> fredsua: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[02:04] <mbrush> fredusa: ubuntu-restricted-extras?  did you download the one dvd thing from that?
[02:04] <sdsheeks> lol look at the moon
[02:04] <rhineheart_m> sdsheeks: so they could access their folders from the networkplaces... and if they will click on it.. samba would ask for their usernames and passwords. correct?
[02:04] <TheZealot> Anyone know how to change the time from 24 hour time to 12?
[02:04] <sdsheeks> rhineheart_m: you can set that up yes
[02:04] <fredsua> Indiadev_Techie: I've downloaded the entire medibuntu library and nothing
[02:04] <asmoore82> fredsua: do you have libdvdcss??
[02:05] <jordan_> mbrush, That alone won't do it
[02:05] <gzb> too cloudy here to see the moon
[02:05] <mbrush> jordan_: isn't that the lib to play drm'd dvds?
[02:05] <mbrush> the one in that package?
[02:05] <fredsua> Yes, I've been to those websites and downloaded all the software.
[02:05] <prince_jammys> he has libdvdcss, can play dvds he's made himself, can't play store-bought or rental dvds
[02:05] <fredsua>  and nothing.
[02:05] <r00723r0> Hi, I rebooted my computer and now there are no audio devices. Any help?
[02:05] <sdsheeks> gzb: :( perfect here
[02:06] <sdsheeks> gzb: it's about 1/4 gone
[02:06] <jordan_> mbrush, Yes, it's not included in ubuntu-restricted-extras ( or anywhere in the official repos ) because it's illegal in some countries ( ie the U.S.)
[02:06] <gzb> is it red yet?
[02:06] <sdsheeks> gzb: no black
[02:06] <fredsua> I've downloaded the entire medibuntu library
[02:06] <jackfusion> dose any one know any thing about ubuntu server?
[02:06] <fredsua> and all the libdvdcss avaialble
[02:06] <gzb> wanted to see it, hope it clears here soon

[02:07] <chimericalbrio> on the keyboard
[02:08] <fredsua> should I reinstall Ubuntu, could this be a really bas software problem?

[02:11] <prince_jammys> fredsua: cd /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/
[02:11] <fredsua> still can't play, trying jordan solution now
[02:11] <macogw> jackfusion: because this channel isnt for chatter, it's for tech support
[02:11] <macogw> jackfusion: what's the problem with the server system?
[02:11] <jordan_> fredsua, That may have actually been the wrong path, I am using 8.04 currently
[02:11] <itisi> and i can still browse the NAS shares from a web browser
[02:11] <macogw> jackfusion: chatter happens in #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntuforums usually
[02:12] <hw00djohn> speaking of tech support...i'm still looking for some help
[02:12] <mbrush> itisi: /etc/fstab?
[02:12] <yoda> Hey can someone help me get my 8800GTS drivers working
[02:12] <codyduncan> jmdc: I am looking at the system manager, and nothing seems out of the ordinary, but it should be said that I have less than a huge ability to recognize such things
[02:12] <prince_jammys> fredsua: actually just::::    sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[02:12] <macogw> hw00djohn: ask your question
[02:12] <jackfusion> I don't have a problem with the server I just want to know what raid software the server uses?
[02:13] <itisi> mbrush: i will check it to see if anything changed, but they still show in my mount folder
[02:13] <macogw> jackfusion: oh hmm... you can setup LVM during install if you want
[02:13] <fredsua> prince_jammys: did it
[02:13] <yoda> Has anyone isntalled a 8800GTS in ubuntu?
[02:13] <mandje> if i want to use a Win wifi driver with ndiswrapper for ubuntu AMD64 from what Win version should the driver be? Vista 64 or just plain XP ?
[02:13] <mbrush> itisi: the directories may remain
[02:13] <hw00djohn> I have an HP VGA webcam that I've been trying to get working since yesterday.  I tried setting it up with EKIGA.  I checked the forums and google with no luck.  Is there a package that can install the drivers for my HP VGA webcam?
[02:13] <prince_jammys> fredsua: any luck?
[02:13] <mbrush> but not mounted
[02:13] <macogw> jackfusion: 6.06 had EVMS, but it's not compatible with the current kernels, so it's been removed
[02:13] <prince_jammys> fredsua: probably not
[02:14] <chimericalbrio> anyone know where i can find a table of what the entries like "0x99" in "keyboard shortcuts" correspond to on the keyboard?
[02:14] <fredsua> prince_jammys: nope, nothing
[02:14] <jmdc> codyduncan: sorry, was afk. top is command line tool that does something like what the system monitor would do. Just stay in there and do View->All Processes and look for something using high percentages of the cpu.
[02:14] <jackfusion> I know about LVM but what creating raid zero what software is used?
[02:14] <CarlFK> how can i see the name of the deb (so the version) that will be installed when I apt-get install foo?
[02:14] <prince_jammys> fredsua: the dvd shows up on your desktop and is mounted, right?
[02:15] <zcat[1]> Q: I removed all of the packages related to 'mono' and it was about 400M freed.. the only things that looked remotely useful from that was some photo manager and some other program I can't recall, and there doesn't seem to be the slightest impact on my system. Is mono actually used for anything important at all?
[02:15] <PriceChild> CarlFK, apt-cache info foo
[02:15] <CarlFK> PriceChild: thanks
[02:15] <EADG> CarlFK: try apt-cache show foo. I think thats what yer looking for.
[02:15] <jackfusion> so being polite in this chat is not accepted?
[02:16] <fredsua> prince_jammys: yes it shows on the dekstop and is mounted
[02:16] <jordan_> fredsua, What is the output of "dpkg -s libdvdcss2 | grep Status" ( should be only one line )
[02:16] <codyduncan> jmcd: there was nothing like that.  I don't know what the problem is.  I just installed (reinstalled) Gutsy yesterday, and already it is kicking me
[02:16] <CarlFK> EADG: yeah, thanks
[02:16] <asmoore82> fredsua, What is the output of "dpkg -s libdvdcss2 | grep Status" ( should be only one line ) ++
[02:16] <itisi> mbrush: they are still mounted in fstab...also, even before i mounted them they showed in my network, now they dont even show up there as folders
[02:16] <CarlFK> PriceChild: apt-cache info transcode = E: Invalid operation info
[02:16] <PriceChild> CarlFK, gah, show then
[02:16] <mbrush> zcat: i believe mono is basically a .NET framework port for linux
[02:16] <jordan_> jackfusion, Being polite in this channel means helping to keep it uncluttered
[02:17] <fredsua> jordan_: I'm not sure how to get that.  Do I copy and paste that command in the termina?
[02:17] <macogw> jackfusion: with how quickly this channel moves and how full it is, idle chatter just gets in the way.  the signal to noise ratio is bad enough with the joins & parts.
[02:17] <albert_kam> Hi ubuntu people, i've just installed ubuntu to give it a try. Could anyone tell me why at boot before getting into login screen, there's nothing but a monitor warning "scanlines out of range" ? And when shutting down, this shows up too. Where should i take a look / configure ?
[02:17] <jordan_> fredsua, Yes
[02:17] <PriceChild> CarlFK, apt-cache show transcode, or apt-cache madison transcode
[02:17] <jmdc> codyduncan - hmm. Has the system been slow ever since  you installed?
[02:17] <KCYNICE_> hi,I remove my old dvd rom and installed a new Blu-ray dvd rom. The system could not find the new device.What should i do?
[02:17] <jackfusion> oh sorry
[02:17] <Chris_x> got some probs with setting up my bind9 (1st time). Everything ran smooth locally but now I got problems with the rndc.key. the server is running as dns slave and I used rndc-confgen -a to create a new key but still errors in the log....
[02:17] <codyduncan> jmcd: no, it was fast for a bit, now it's dragging, immensely
[02:17] <Chris_x> named seems to run though
[02:17] <fredsua> jordan_: install ok
[02:17] <itisi> mbrush: actually, none of the shared folders show in my network places anymore
[02:18] <jackfusion> dose any one know what software raid ubuntu server uses when creating raid zero?
[02:18] <macogw> jackfusion: md is what's used for raid
[02:18] <jackfusion> thank you
[02:18] <Chris_x> syslog says:
[02:18] <Chris_x> none:0: open: /etc/bind/rndc.key: permission denied

[02:18] <zcat[1]> mbrush: I've decided I want to part of .NET on my machine.. and so far that doesn't seem to be a problem. Why is it installed by default? it's actually pretty huge and doesn't seem too important.
[02:18] <jackfusion> /exit
[02:19] <codyduncan> jmcd:  I mean, it was working fine, other than the fact that it was taking a long time to start up (but I think that is related to wireless card problems)
[02:19] <macogw> jack-desktop:  it's /quit
[02:19] <fredmv> Hey all.   Is anyone well-versed in SDL issues?
[02:19] <mandje> if i want to use a Win wifi driver with ndiswrapper for ubuntu AMD64 from what Win version should the driver be? Vista 64 or just plain XP ?
[02:19] <jmdc> codyduncan - did you change anything before it started being slow?
[02:19] <chimericalbrio> anyone know where i can find a table of what the entries like "0x99" in "keyboard shortcuts" correspond to on the keyboard?
[02:19] <jordan_> fredsua, Have you ever set the region for your dvd drive? ( I am not sure if this should be needed with libdvdcss but it's something worth checking )
[02:19] <mbrush> zcat: it's open source i think, and it brings over C# language from windows which is IMO one of the best languages ever (for me)
[02:19] <fredsua> jordan_: No I haven't.  Not sure how.
[02:19] <reasons> chimerica, open a termina and type xev
[02:19] <chimericalbrio> reasons: thanks
[02:19] <mbrush> zcat: if you don't have any mono apps, it ok to uninstall
[02:20] <solexious> [QQ] I need to make pport have super user privlages at startup, how do I do that?
[02:20] <jordan_> fredsua, Do DVD's play properly in Windows?
[02:20]  * badboy ciao a tutti
[02:20] <fredmv> I'm getting the dreaded "Unable to initialize SDL: No available video device" when I try running SDL-based games.  I've already installed the latest 1.2 libs for Debian and ran a "xhost + localhost".   Still not working.
[02:20] <fredsua> jordan_: yes they did before I switched.  :-)
[02:20] <codyduncan> jmcd:  well, as I had just installed, I changed a lot of things, basically, I installed amarok, wine, mplayer, got rid of rhytmbox, got ktorrent, enabled the restricted drivers, then disabled them, as they were doing nothing for me
[02:20] <zcat[1]> mbrush: ahh.. ok. cool. I'm feeling very ant-MS this week. I decided I'd like to avoide a technology that MS still seems to have so much control over.
[02:21] <jordan_> fredsua, Then the region has already been set
[02:21] <_Oz_> HALLLOOOOOOO Ubuntu friends!
[02:21] <fredsua> jordan_ I was using DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter before with no problems
[02:21] <DrunkenPi> hey sorry to bother you but is there a active C++ channel?
[02:21]  * _Oz_ screams into #ubuntu like a cannonball shot from a distant ship in the bay.
[02:21] <Pici> DrunkenPi: ##C++ ?
[02:21] <ryaku> This is likely a stupid issue, but is there anyone here who can help me with video issues?
[02:21] <mbrush> zcat: i hear ya .. it's a killer language though
[02:21] <reasons> ryaku, that depends on the video issue
[02:22] <jordan_> fredsua, That is different, could you use a ( legal ) DVD playing software?
[02:22] <DrunkenPi> thanks Pici
[02:22] <zcat[1]> mbrush: never used it. I kinda picked up python a few years back and that was quite easy, but I haven't used it since.
[02:22] <pawan> amule unable to load servers quits
[02:22] <ryakufox> reasons: Well, I've just installed Ubuntu not a few hours ago. I've managed to work around the usual ATI deal and get ATI drivers for my x1600P working, with XGL and everything. But, it keeps giving me both an XFree86-DRI missing error, and refuses to do direct rendering.
[02:23] <pawan> is there ares for ubuntu
[02:23] <fredsua> jordan_: that was before in windows.  I'm now using VLM, Totem and gxine and none works
[02:23] <jordan_> ryakufox, That is a result of the fact that you are using XGL
[02:23] <zcat[1]> jordan_: Dell was shipping Linux preinstalled with something which I assume was blessed by the DVDCCA or whoever
[02:23] <ryakufox> Well, is there any workaround? All I wanted was to be able to get desktop effects, and still be able to play my games.
[02:24] <reasons> ryakufox, I believe you have to use alglx
[02:24] <fredsua> jordan_: how do I reinstall Ubuntu without deleting everything?
[02:24] <Hiliku1> hey guys, i have two hard drives, one's ide the other one is sata, which one would you recommend installing my os on??
[02:25] <ryakufox> reasons: Any way you can run me through that?
[02:25] <Hiliku1> the second drive is used to store data
[02:25] <jordan_> fredsua, You can put your /home on a separate partition:
[02:25] <mbrush> ryakufox: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, there should be a DRI section with a mode line
[02:25] <zcat[1]> Hiliku1: sata, it's generally much faster
[02:25] <jordan_> !home | fredsua
[02:25] <ubotu> fredsua: Your home folder is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For mounting your home folder on a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[02:25] <Hiliku1> zcat[1]: i know, but i do want the faster to be for the OS or for all my data (big files and all that)
[02:25] <zcat[1]> Hiliku1: you want the faster one for the OS..
[02:25] <Hiliku1> zcat[1]: excellent!
[02:26] <ablyss> jordan_, from my experience putting home on a separate partition can get messy if you dont delete the hidden config files
[02:26] <Hiliku1> zcat[1]: thanks
[02:26] <jeffMASTERflex> Hiliku1: i think you want a more responsive OS
[02:26] <fredsua> jordan_: thank you
[02:26] <reasons> ryakufox, never had an ATI card but I believe this might be of use to you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=145068

[02:27] <jordan_> ablyss, It shouldn't, how did you do it? ( you should not just use cp with no arguments )
[02:27] <jmdc> codyduncan - I'm stumped. Why did you reinstall?
[02:27] <prince_jammys> ubotu: anything
[02:27] <ubotu> So, you wanted to lure me into saying I don't know anything about anything? Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone.

[02:28] <_Oz_> oops
[02:28] <_Oz_> sorry for the repeat

[02:28] <_Oz_> heheh
[02:28] <_Oz_> thanks, speeddemon8803
[02:29] <fredmv> Even with the latest 1.2deb libs this simply doesn't work.
[02:29] <ablyss> Jordan_U, fresh install but using existing /home partition which retained old config settings from previous install.   some settings are depreciated which might adversely effect new protocols
[02:29] <_Oz_> fredmv: what's that?
[02:30] <fus10nx> kevin_121: thanks. I know it works in windows, the audio over HDMI
[02:30] <itisi> does anyone know why..after being able to see all my network drives...now i can no longer see any network folders? I know they are still connected (can browse them in firefox), but they arent visible from folders
[02:30] <Jordan_U> ablyss, He is presumably going to install the same version of Ubuntu
[02:30] <fredmv> Basically, I'm trying to get an SDL-based game working (sauerbraten) and it keeps failing with "Unable to initialize SDL: No available video device"

[02:31] <fredmv> I already a) installed the latest libs, and b) ran an xhost + localhost to no avail.
