[15:36] <psinetic> yeah i had no idea what you meant by "install ubuntu-desktop metapackage", i figured i'd run "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop metapackage" but that didn't work
[15:36] <kappaccino> Is there a gui for handling archives - rars - zips - etc ??
[15:36] <Pici> clone_: See upstream: http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1932
[15:37] <arand> kappaccino: file-roller?
[15:37] <Delvien> psinetic, i didnt say install ubuntu-desktop metapackage :) that was someone else. the first commands were fine you ran
[15:37] <kappaccino> I was at work yesterday trying to find it. I realize I installed 7zip but it's all terminal work :(
[15:37] <Delvien> psinetic,  gimme a sec, reading something about it
[15:37] <psinetic> ok
[15:37] <Pici> kappaccino: If you install the 'rar' and 'p7zip' packages, file-roller will be able to handle those filetypes automatically.
[15:38] <kappaccino> cool thanks
[15:38] <Delvien> psinetic, when is the last time you update?
[15:38] <Delvien> updated*
[15:38] <arand> psinetic: exactly what packages did you remove with the orphan-clean-thingy?
[15:38] <psinetic> about two hours ago
[15:39] <psinetic> i have no idea, it just gave me a bunch of boxes to check, i figured they were all from bad installs or where i half-installed something manually and left alot of trash behind. so i checked them all and hit "ok"
[15:39] <psinetic> ...it even removed itself...
[15:39] <gamerx> anyone know of any GUi's for kismet?
[15:40] <Delvien> psinetic, without knowing what is missing :x..... try "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" and post the output to pastebin
[15:41] <psinetic> what's the difference in sudo apt-get and sudo aptitude?
[15:42] <arand> psinetic: did you have a lot of packages installed without using a repository (i.e. downloaded deb files) or from a repository which are no longer enabled?
[15:42] <maciej_> helo all
[15:42] <BlouBlou> psinetic: aptitude is an alias from apt-get
[15:42] <Delvien> aptitude is more comprehensive
[15:42] <mgolisch> no its not
[15:42] <llutz> BlouBlou: wrong
[15:42] <mgolisch> its a different programm
[15:42] <BlouBlou> llua: ops, so what is it?
[15:42] <llutz> psinetic: both are different front-ends to apt
[15:42] <BlouBlou> llutz: sorry, what is it?
[15:43] <llua> :x
[15:43] <psinetic> i think the Remove Orphaned Packages program removed packages that were related to apps that were standalone as well. for example, if an app has no dependencies, then i think it autoassumed it was an orphan and marked it for deletion.
[15:43] <arand> psinetic: aptitude is a higher-level program with a semi-gui available, it also tends to give you more information compared to apt-get...
[15:43] <psinetic> http://pastebin.com/d5cfa6a21
[15:44] <fccf> BlouBlou: apt-get aptitude explanation here http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/aptitude
[15:44] <grawity> BlouBlou: apt-get/apt-cache are purely command-line tools, aptitude is kind of menu-based, and synaptic has a full, clickable GUI - and all three are just interfaces to the 'apt' package management system.
[15:44] <L1nUX1z3R> can anyone help me with dockbarx...cant change the themes
[15:44] <BlouBlou> fccf, grawity: ok thanks for info :)
[15:44] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  dockbarx?
[15:44] <Delvien> psinetic, .... wow its all kinds of borked, did you have KDE4 installed?
[15:44] <L1nUX1z3R> coz, yes
[15:44] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  I have to google that one
[15:44] <psinetic> no idea
[15:45] <gamerx> coz_, http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/DockbarX?content=101604
[15:45] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, yaaaay :P
[15:45] <Delvien> psinetic, you shouldnt run things in root (mode), you should always use sudo
[15:45] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, what?
[15:45] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, are you using it??
[15:46] <psinetic> oh ok
[15:46] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, no i just googled it, found the page on it lol
[15:46] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  let me install this and see
[15:46] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, k, thanks
[15:46] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R,  i shall check it out too
[15:46] <Delvien> psinetic, aptitiude removed alot of things... I only wanted the output not for you to continue on and agree to what it was removing doh.
[15:46] <arand> psinetic: did your desktop include a menubar at the top.
[15:46] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, thanks too
[15:46] <L1nUX1z3R> it basically makes a task bar like the one on windows 7, but better
[15:47] <psinetic> uh...well i have both status bars on the bottom of the screen if that's what you're asking
[15:47] <Delvien> IS there a K on the bottom left hand side?
[15:47] <psinetic> no
[15:47] <psinetic> i think it's gnome based
[15:47] <arand> psinetic: or rather, are you using Kubuntu rather than the gnome-based ubuntu.
[15:47] <Delvien> Whats there?
[15:47] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  hold on ...apparenlty this takes a few dependencies
[15:47] <psinetic> i'm using Ubuntu
[15:47] <psinetic> it's the funky looking circle thing
[15:48] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, i can find the link to them..
[15:48] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  ? and a couple manual install things
[15:48] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  thats ok they are installing
[15:48] <Delvien> ubuntu is a distro, KDE and Gnome are desktop environments. (kubuntu for kde and ubuntu for gnome)
[15:48] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, yeah...a couple of copying files to /usr/bin etc
[15:48] <psinetic> ah. i'm using gnome
[15:48] <acr0nym> hello, is it possible to split my current ubuntu partition in half without losing my distro/data
[15:49] <psinetic> acr0nym: you can use a partition manager to split the un-used space.
[15:49] <grawity> acr0nym: Yes, but you'll need to do that from a LiveCD (because you cannot edit partitions that are being used)
[15:49] <Delvien> psinetic, does it look like this? http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/screenshots/desktop.jpg
[15:49] <acr0nym> aah grawity  that explains why it didn't work
[15:49] <grawity> acr0nym: Also, resizing partitions is a little risky.
[15:49] <BlouBlou> psinetic: When you install "Ubuntu", Ubuntu installs gnome, but you can install KDE later via synaptic
[15:50] <psinetic> no, it doesn't look like that
[15:50] <Delvien> psinetic, okie
[15:50] <psinetic> hmmm, i'll take a screeny myself
[15:50] <Delvien> psinetic, do "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" again, and without continuing post the output to pastebin
[15:50] <psinetic> and for the love of god this is pissing me off >_> my music player just up and freaking freezes >_>
[15:51] <Delvien> psinetic, maybe the best option for you is to backup your data and reinstall a non-beta version
[15:51] <Delvien> psinetic, Usually we all suggest STRONGLY not to get into the beta software unless you really know how to tear things apart
[15:51] <psinetic> http://pastebin.com/d1bf26021
[15:51] <psinetic> hmmm ok
[15:52] <Delvien> psinetic, you spelled ubuntu-desktop wrong  in your terminal command
[15:52] <psinetic> well i didn't go into beta until after this happened
[15:52] <BlouBlou> Delvien: maybe psinetic can wait few weeks, and install RC or definitive version upgrading
[15:52] <Delvien> "ubnuntu-desktop"
[15:52] <psinetic> go figure >_>
[15:52] <acr0nym> thanks
[15:52] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  oh a systray??
[15:52] <acr0nym> one more question, I want to use the same home partition on different distros
[15:52] <xliiv> will you clear one thing to me? i use [alt]+[f2] run program and i'd like to add an activator to it? some hints?
[15:52] <Delvien> BlouBlou will be better for him to just reinstall, since we have no idea what packages are missing
[15:52] <BullHornL> i can have ubuntu installed on the same partition as windows?
[15:53] <acr0nym> do I have to make a different partition for home and can this be done without reinstalling my current ubuntu from scratch?
[15:53] <Delvien> BullHornL, with wubi, yes
[15:53] <arand> psinetic: using tab-completion makes spelling mistakes rarer ;)
[15:53] <BullHornL> is it stable/worth-checking?
[15:53] <BlouBlou> psinetic: if you're using beta version join in #ubuntu+1 for karmic support ;)
[15:53] <psinetic> http://pastebin.com/d2d2c4a9
[15:53] <Delvien> acr0nym, You dont HAVE to
[15:53] <azimout> question: now that we use gdm 2.28, which doesn't (seem to) support themes, what do we do with all the *gdm-theme* packages?
[15:53] <grawity> acr0nym: Resize the current /, create a new partition, move data from old /home to the new partition, edit the /etc/fstab apropriately. Note that using a single /home for two distros _may_ create some problems (if you use different versions of Firefox, for example) - but other than that, good.
[15:53] <Delvien> BlouBlou, Im already helping him, no need to direct him somewhere else
[15:53] <KingOverload> Anyone know why splashy will not install under Ubuntu Jaunty?
[15:53] <psinetic> BlouBlou: right now i'm only concerned about Ubuntu support.
[15:53] <Pici> azimout : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion.
[15:53] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, yes
[15:54] <L1nUX1z3R> is it working??
[15:54] <BlouBlou> okay
[15:54] <Delvien> psinetic, Id say, just back up your stuff and reinstall 9.04
[15:54] <azimout> ok, thank you
[15:54] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  yes its working now let me try to change themes
[15:54] <psinetic> haha, ok. that'll make reinstall number three this month ;)
[15:54] <acr0nym> thanks grawity, one last question, I'm not very familiar with /etc/fstab can you perhaps explain what I have to do there or a link to a tutorial?
[15:54] <KingOverload> I had an error installing the 'splashy' package; "Conflicts with lsb-base" said its overwriting base-logging.sh
[15:54] <KingOverload> Anyone know if its safe to force an install?
[15:54] <Delvien> psinetic, this time, to make it easier, make your / and /home different partitions, so you dont have to mess with your data all the time
[15:54] <erUSUL> !fstab
[15:55] <psinetic> hmmm never thought of that
[15:55] <acr0nym> thanks
[15:55] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  mm I cannot find the preferences dialog
[15:55] <Delvien> psinetic,  :) if you bork your system, your data is safe, well unless your HDD goes nuclear
[15:55] <acr0nym> would it also be better to have the home partition as the first partition on my harddisk
[15:55] <Delvien> acr0nym, / first
[15:55] <luisfqs> !Partitions
[15:55] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, i couldnt the first day...but i think if you right-click on it
[15:56] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  nope no preferences let me look hold on
[15:56] <psinetic> to be honest this has been a very hard and frustrating experience. I'm a military IT and work on computers everyday, but use windows. I know computers, I just don't know linux. and i'm sick of windows and viruses and junk like that and screw mac so i went linux. and ever since i installed it i've had problem after problem. very frustrating.
[15:56] <L1nUX1z3R> try logging out then in coz_
[15:56] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  ok hold on
[15:56] <Delvien> psinetic,  we all go through that, but at least you can open the hood up and figure it out
[15:57] <BullHornL> is there a linux alternative to nokia pc suite for connecting to the internet with a nokia phone?
[15:57] <Delvien> psinetic, the beauty of linux :)
[15:57] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, lolz
[15:57] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, it lookz sexy :0
[15:57] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, yeah, right....
[15:57] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, send me a screenshot
[15:57] <pooka> psinetic: To add to Delvien's point, the fact you're managing to break it repeatedly probably means you're tinkering and trying to learn; you'll benefit in the long run. :o)
[15:57] <KingOverload> Breaking stuff is the quickest way to learn imho
[15:57] <Delvien> pooka well said
[15:57] <psinetic> true. it's like, the first time i installed it, graphics wouldn't work. i did everything i could, googled for a week straight, asked for help, nothing. reinstalled the os and it came back up. then i had another problem
[15:58] <psinetic> actually, it's not that i'm breaking it, it's just that crap doesn't work when it's installed
[15:58] <psinetic> for example. skype doesn't like my webcam
[15:58] <psinetic> so i have to fix it
[15:58] <psinetic> ubuntu doesn't like my graphics card, so i have to fix it
[15:58] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  no still no preferences   although I am karmic right now
[15:58] <psinetic> and in the process of fixing, i screw something up
[15:58] <psinetic> and have to fix that too
[15:58] <BullHornL> webcams suck, it took me a month to get mine working on windows
[15:58] <BullHornL> lol
[15:58] <KingOverload> Anybody savvy on splash package issues? Not an emergency but if somebody knows it'd be helpful
[15:58] <KingOverload> *splashy
[15:58] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, can you not even get it installed?, im just trying to do the themes now
[15:58] <psinetic> screw windows
[15:59] <Delvien> psinetic, Most of the major issuses you will run into with linux is poor hardware support. The companies spend as little as possible on developement, and while it may work in windows, linux is another story.
[15:59] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, it worked for me after reboot...but i still couldnt change themes
[15:59] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, i can, i just cant change the themes
[15:59] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, im on jaunty
[15:59] <psinetic> yeah i've noticed that. one thing that's pissing me off is that there's no yahoo messenger for linux
[15:59] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, mine worked straight away :0,
[15:59] <Delvien> psinetic, pidgin
[15:59] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, in just reading thru the docs now
[15:59] <grawity> psinetic: Pidgin, Empathy, etc.
[15:59] <kelohippi> I will install linux this weekend for a first time on my computer as a dual boot but now im reading about ext3 and ext4 filesystems. they've got me a bit mixed up and i wonder that if i make one partition with ext3 where i keep my /boot as it is recommended and use ext4 on other partitions will it be a bit too experimental for a first time linux user. meaning do i have to spend hours on internet looking for some solutions for conflicts.
[15:59] <pooka> psinetic: I believe there are various tools that'll work with messenger for you. Pidgin perhaps?
[15:59] <Delvien> psinetic, its all of the IM protocols in one nice app
[16:00] <psinetic> i have to use some gyachi, which was removed in the recent screw up
[16:00] <psinetic> pidgin doesn't use webcams
[16:00] <psinetic> and empathy doesn't accept yahoo webcams
[16:00] <grawity> psinetic: Pidgin already supports video for XMPP; Yahoo is coming someday.
[16:00] <BlouBlou> psinetic: try amsn for use webcam
[16:00] <psinetic> yep that's not working either
[16:00] <grawity> BlouBlou: He wants Yahoo, not MSN -.-
[16:00] <psinetic> i have both accounts
[16:00] <psinetic> neither work
[16:00] <pooka> kelohippi: I'd say stick with the simplest thing you can to start with. It's great that you're reading up and learning.
[16:01] <Delvien> psinetic, does it say its not connecting?
[16:01] <pooka> kelohippi: You can get adventurous once you're happy with your basic system.
[16:01]  * grawity never understood why are webcams so popular.
[16:01] <BlouBlou> grawity: sorry, It's friday and I am tired of working ;)
[16:01] <GregoryC> does anyone have experience setting up wine on a fresh install of ubuntu 9.10?
[16:01] <pooka> grawity: Total mystery to me too, but then I'm rather technophobic.
[16:01] <adalal> anyone with experience with bind9? i want to setup one, but im not sure if it'll work with dyndns.com's free service..
[16:02] <GregoryC> 9.10 prerelease i mean?
[16:02] <grawity> pooka: And I'm a geek.
[16:02] <Pici> GaeliX_alt : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion.
[16:02] <Pici> GaeliX_alt: sorry, wrong nick.
[16:02] <draculatici> !ops
[16:02] <psinetic> oh the webcam shows
[16:02] <fabiobassa> very good morning room
[16:02] <psinetic> but
[16:02] <Pici> draculatici: ?
[16:02] <FloodBot3> Pici: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:02] <KingOverload> ^^
[16:02] <draculatici> !ops
[16:02] <psinetic> sorry
[16:02] <Pici> draculatici: Why did you call ops?
[16:02] <draculatici> !ot
[16:02] <LjL> draculatici: stop
[16:02] <psinetic> it shows up in preview
[16:02] <draculatici> !ops
[16:02] <psinetic> but when i use it it just freezes and the person never sees it
[16:02] <KingOverload> Spammer..
[16:02] <kelohippi> pooka: yeah thanks you are probably right. I just would like my installation be the best possible from the start so i dont have to keep changing all the time :) thanks
[16:02] <psinetic> and it doesn't send me a request on my end
[16:03] <fabiobassa> please I need help with the old problem of resolution in xubuntu 9.04
[16:03] <pooka> kelohippi: I understand; I'd recommend using the defaults for the most part - they're set that way because they work well for the majority of users.
[16:03] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, is it working??
[16:03] <abdusamed> need help downloading from launchpad.. how do i exactly download? i did the software source steps.. now to download monoxide [https://launchpad.net/~directhex/+archive/monoxide]
[16:03] <psinetic> fabiobassa, what graphics card do you have?
[16:04] <adalal> need help with bind9... will it work with dyndns? or is there a separate channel for it?
[16:04] <KingOverload> Your setting up a private NS for dynamic DNS? wow.
[16:04] <coz_> L1nUX1z3R,  well it works but  no preferences in karmic  so far   and I cant change themes
[16:04] <fabiobassa> i have an ati rage 128 and a 15 inches monitor that works fine up to 1025*768
[16:04] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, have you got it working yet?,
[16:04] <LongFist> Is there a network specialist in the house?  My Ubuntu 8.04 LTS network layer just borked.
[16:04] <L1nUX1z3R> coz_, :(...will try and google it
[16:04] <adalal> KingOverload: yeah, trying to
[16:04] <pooka> adalal: What is it that you want to accomplish DNSwise?
[16:04] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, it works, i just cant change the themes
[16:05] <psinetic> fabiobassa, you've gone into system->prefs->display?
[16:05] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, as far as i can see you put the .tar.gz file into /usr/share/dockbarx/themes and then relog?
[16:05] <KingOverload> adalal, Good luck with that. seriously.
[16:05] <abdusamed> fabiobassa -> whats ur prob?
[16:05] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, then go into the properties and change it
[16:05] <abdusamed> i bet u have a old dell... :)
[16:05] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, i got it installed...but i cant change themes...can you?
[16:05] <psinetic> abdusamed, the US Navy uses dell quite a bit ;)
[16:05] <kelohippi> pooka: yea thanks.
[16:05] <fabiobassa> i cannot have 1024*768, but only 800*600. i tried googleing but all seem to edit xorg.conf
[16:05] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, yes i can change them, im trying to install one now, can you get into the properties page?
[16:06] <adalal> pooka: im trying to setup a dns server, that'll point to my ftp server, and one to mail ... i already have a domain setup, i jus wanna know if i can actually setup wildcard support with my own bind server, using dynamic dns' free service
[16:06] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, yes...right-click it then im lost from there
[16:06] <L1nUX1z3R> wait i relogin
[16:06] <fabiobassa> it seeeìms a very common problem
[16:06] <psinetic> fabiobassa, haha, i dunno man, mine was with nvidia not working. it took me a reinstall of the OS to get it to work
[16:06] <abdusamed> how do i download from launchpad? after doing the software source steps?
[16:07] <thijs> Hello.
[16:07] <fabiobassa> ty psinetic, it seems a very common problem that the resolution is set on 800*600
[16:07] <pooka> adalal: You want to host all of this (including the DNS server?) on a dynamic address?
[16:08] <adalal> pooka: technically i dont have a dynamic address.. mine's static
[16:08] <psinetic> fabiobassa, are you able to change the res in system->prefs->display?
[16:08] <pooka> adalal: Okay. Why is dyndns involved?
[16:08] <adalal> pooka: jus wanted to use a dns server to point to my address..
[16:08] <zoolook> Hello. Any preseed guru here?
[16:08] <fabiobassa> no psinetic just 800*600 and 600*480.. i want it bigger
[16:08] <adalal> pooka: got any services that would point an address to my ip?
[16:08] <psinetic> ok, hang on
[16:08] <KingOverload> adalal, Your dyndns account will do it
[16:09] <KingOverload> adalal, you just have to log in and give it your IP (which it can autodetect)
[16:09] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, how the hell do you make it vertical???
[16:09] <pooka> adalal: Any DNS domain reseller should allow you to set the NS records for your domain to point to your personal DNS server.
[16:09] <psinetic> fabiobassa, try going to system->Administration->hardware drivers
[16:09] <adalal> KingOverload: the problem is, wildcard support is supposedly disabled in a free account, i dont know what that means,... as in, will it allow me to create wildcards using my own bind server?
[16:10] <thijs> I've got this problem, I want to install ubuntu 8.10 on a laptop, but because i only have a 8.04 livecd i installed it via installing 8.04, and then upgrade to 8.10, however it always crashes.. Now i managed to atleast get it working for some part. There's a GDM (the 8,04 one) but i can't type in it, i can get in console, and when i type sudo apt-get upgrade, it sais 0 new, 0 to remove, and 92 not upgraded
[16:10] <fabiobassa> it is empty psinetic
[16:10] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, right-click on the taskbar then properties > orientation
[16:10] <KingOverload> adalal, wildcard support is free
[16:10] <thijs> How do i fix it so it will upgrade?
[16:10] <psinetic> it's empty?
[16:10] <psinetic> ...odd
[16:10] <KingOverload> adalal, I have a dyndns account lol
[16:10] <fabiobassa> i suppose i am using a generic droiver
[16:10] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, i stil cant change the themes
[16:10] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, btw, i changed the theme to a new one and it seems to apply, but no icons show up
[16:10] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, maybe  i need a re-log, but cant as im doing the dvd rip :/
[16:10] <fabiobassa> i suppose xubuntu 9.04 didn't recognize my screen and not my card
[16:10] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, ok
[16:11] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, brb
[16:11] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, so you right click it then select properties?
[16:11] <Jordan_U> thijs: How did you upgrade to 8.10, via update-manager?
[16:11] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, yes
[16:11] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R, then the window comes up?
[16:11] <cody_> How do i install my video's card propritory drivers? I have the nVidia RIVA TNT2 Model 64 Pro
[16:11] <psinetic> fabiobassa, , it does look like it's a driver problem. you'll probably have to go download that driver and compile it for linux. they might have a linux version available.
[16:11] <Jordan_U> cody_: Have youtried System > Administration > Harware Drivers?
[16:11] <thijs> Jordan_U, yes, via update manager in GUI, but half way(don't know exactly when) it crashed, so i rebooted, continued the upgrade
[16:12] <gamerx> cody_, have yyou tried hardware drivers under system - admin
[16:12] <L1nUX1z3R> yes...then you select where you want to put it in the orientation tab
[16:12] <L1nUX1z3R> gamerx, brb
[16:12] <gamerx> L1nUX1z3R,  kk'
[16:12] <Jordan_U> thijs: Ok, run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[16:12] <fabiobassa> ok psinetic , i hoped xubuntu already had it in . ty so much for helping
[16:12] <cody_> gamerx and Jordan_U: Yes, I have. Nothing is in there
[16:12] <gamerx> cody_ have you tried searching the nvidia site for linux drivers?
[16:13] <psinetic> fabiobassa, alot of times hardware support just isn't given on linux. i would go to the website vender for your graphics card, and see if they don't have a third-party linux driver on the main site
[16:13] <Jordan_U> !envy | cody_
[16:13] <thijs> Jordan_U, doesn't that install 9.04? because the fglrx drivers are incompatible with my über video card...
[16:13] <fabiobassa> ok ok  i will do so
[16:13] <fabiobassa> psinetic, ty again
[16:13] <Jordan_U> thijs: No, that will only continue the upgrade to 8.10
[16:13] <cody_> gamerx: No, i have not. I dont know if they even have it there anymore. Oh, well, it dont matter. I doubt compiz will run with the proprietory driver anyway :\
[16:13] <thijs> Jordan_U, when i type lsb_release -a it tells me it's using 8.10,
[16:13] <thijs> really? :D
[16:14] <Guest58594> Hi, can anyone recommend a program or script that is capable of taking a bunch of pictures and making a video?
[16:14] <Guest58594> I tried Lives, but it isn't working.
[16:14] <gamerx> cody_ it might, even try the gfx card manufacurer website?
[16:14] <mne> Hi. How can I _dis_able the NX (Execute Disable) protection ?
[16:14] <LongFist> Hi.  Is there a network specialist in the house?  My Ubuntu 8.04 LTS network layer just borked.
[16:14] <cody_> gamerx: Okay, ill look on their website
[16:14] <Jeruvy> Guest42055: kino
[16:14] <thijs> Jordan_U, ok, thank you. Will inform you when it shows me more info, because it needs to download 200+ mb, with a not-so-fast internet connection
[16:14] <Jordan_U> mne: Why?
[16:15] <mne> Jordan_U, not why, how is the big question
[16:15] <Jordan_U> mne: Why is my question though :)
[16:15] <Pici> !dist-upgrade | thijs
[16:16] <llutz> !ask | LongFist
[16:16] <mne> Jordan_U, vulnerability research
[16:16] <LongFist> Sorry.
[16:16] <cody_> gamerx: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_71.86.11.html That might be it
[16:16] <Jeruvy> Guest58594: Oops wrong nick ;)  try kino
[16:17] <llutz> Guest58594: imagemagick, dvd-slideshow
[16:17] <gamerx> cody_ i would just try it and not hope for anyhting :0
[16:17] <LongFist> My Ubuntu 8.04 LTS network layer is no longer functional - hardline or wireless.  Is there a way to fix/reinstall?
[16:18] <cody_> gamerx: Okay, i am. What if GUI happens to fail?
[16:18] <gamerx> cody_, but it looks like it should work fine (hope i didnt jinx it)
[16:18] <psinetic> delvien, http://tinypic.com/r/2chrtw4/4 that's the screenshot of my computer. notice all the black boxes with "no" signs on it. And this is another: http://tinypic.com/r/9i6b69/4 that shows the different "Add Applications" window that I've never seen before.
[16:18] <gamerx> cody_, it shouldnt, although in no expert on linux
[16:18] <juliana_> hola
[16:18] <cody_> gamerx: Lol okay, would i need to get out of GUI to install it?
[16:19] <gamerx> cody_, no you would just use terminal to install it as they say on that site
[16:19] <thijs> ty Pici
[16:19] <juliana_> hay alguna  chica
[16:19] <gamerx> cody_, STEP 3: Install
[16:19] <Guest58594> Kino seems to work, Jeruvy. Thanks.
[16:19] <cody_> gamerx: Okay, i am waiting for ubuntu-restricted-extras to install then i will run its install
[16:20] <juliana_> hola
[16:20] <mne> Jordan_U, kernel boot option noexec=off is the answer
[16:20] <thijs> Jordan_U, ok, the update finished, I'll reboot it now
[16:21] <cody_> gamerx: *chuckle* i do need to quit x :P BRB, quitting X
[16:21] <gamerx> cody_, okay im leave soon too
[16:21] <cody_> gamerx: Okay, i hope i will be done before you do
[16:21] <gamerx> cody_, me too
[16:21] <gamerx> cody_ allthough its allmost 1 am :0
[16:22] <cody_> gamerx: O_O Here it is 9:22 AM
[16:22] <cody_> gamerx: What is the command to stop X?
[16:22] <cody_> sudo /etc/init.d/???? stop
[16:22] <gamerx> cody_, lol lucky you. are you running in command line?
[16:22] <Jordan_U> cody_: gdm
[16:22] <hwilde> cody_, gdm
[16:23] <cody_> Jordan_U and hwilde: Thank you
[16:23] <cody_> gamerx: No, im backing out in TTY
[16:23] <gamerx> cody_ okay
[16:24] <gamerx> anyone here can help me installing kismet?, i did it through synaptic, but now i have no clue how to run it
[16:24] <psinetic> brb all, taking a shower
[16:25] <thijs> Jordan_U, Thank you a lot! That really helped me out with the upgrade part! :D
[16:25] <Jordan_U> thjnp :)

[16:26] <kermit> genii: i'm not particular on which terminal type, i really don't know the differences
[16:27] <kermit> genii: xterm is certainly faster than what i was using though, which edbian suggested
[16:28] <docmax> hello. my printer is blinking orange! what can i do?
[16:28] <gamerx> xguru, looking at it now
[16:29] <n8tuser> docmax-> what do you want to do? replace your printer?
[16:29] <miha> is there a way to watch tv over network... from notebook on same LAN, rather than desktop PC?
[16:29] <gamerx> how do you remove /away
[16:29] <cody_> where do i find xorg.conf?
[16:29] <IdleOne> /back
[16:29] <xguru> ./back or /away again
[16:29] <gamerx> xguru, cheers
[16:29] <thijs> Nother problem: My system freezes randomly, how do i start solving this problem?
[16:29] <n8tuser> miha there is like using icecast, google for tutorials on these
[16:29] <gamerx> cody_ howd it go?
[16:29] <Repentinus> Hmm.
[16:30] <cody_> gamerx: So far so good, i just need to edit the xorg.conf file. idk where to find it though :p
[16:30] <n8tuser> cody usually in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:30] <gamerx> n8tuser, you are to fast for me
[16:30] <Repentinus> I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop and the graphics are fucked up now.
[16:30] <cody_> n8tuser: Thank you very much
[16:30] <n8tuser> !language | Repentinus
[16:30] <IdleOne> Repentinus: #ubuntu+1 for karmic and please watch the language
[16:30] <Repentinus> Flickering when I boot up, when I log in and start some apps, display goes crazy.
[16:30] <Repentinus> Sorry, for inappropriate language.
[16:31] <Repentinus> I won't speak like that in the channel anymore.
[16:31] <cody_> I dont see anything the nVidia README tells me to edit
[16:31] <cody_> ill pastebin it
[16:31] <IdleOne> thank you. now /join #ubuntu+1 and they should be able to help
[16:32] <thijs> Another problem: My system freezes randomly, how do i start solving this problem, where do I look for errors and stuff?
[16:32] <werfact> Repentinus, install windows

[16:33] <docmax> in lunux i have nothing
[16:34] <cody_> http://pastebin.ca/1623828 help me with that plz? :)
[16:35] <henry_> hi there
[16:35] <cody_> henry_: Hello
[16:35] <docmax> hello. my printer is blinking orange! what can i do?
[16:36] <werfact> cody_, yeah they changed corg.conf, so you can't edit shit now
[16:36] <amgarching> cody_:  they are talking about "Device" section
[16:36] <Unknown1x> hello everyone.
[16:36] <thijs> I get a total freeze when using firefox (gmail, loaded and then it freezes)
[16:36] <llutz>  docmax learn to ask less stupid questions, read printer-manual to see what it means
[16:36] <gamerx> is there any way of increasing the max volume, my speakers are all turned up but the noise is low :0
[16:36] <cody_> amgarching: Okay, so just add lines like: Device = nVidia?
[16:36] <n8tuser> docmax-> what does  http://localhost:631  tells you?  am assuming it is attached to your host and not a network shared printer
[16:36] <amgarching> cody_:  "nvidia" watch the case
[16:37] <docmax> llutz, can be anything
[16:37] <nachox> is there any way to limit the usage of su to certain users? or rather prevent some users from using su?
[16:37] <werfact> cody_, did you install nvidia driver?
[16:37] <nsahoo> hi .. I put a CD in. Then an icon appeared on the desktop. But, it is still there when I took the CD out. How do I remove it?
[16:37] <cody_> amgarching: Okay, i will add that real quick
[16:37] <cody_> werfact: Yes, just now
[16:37] <docmax> windows displays a specific answer
[16:37] <grawity> nachox: Don't tell the root password to other users.
[16:37] <werfact> cody_, how? did you reboot?
[16:37] <Madsy> If I install nvidia drivers from source, will that collide with Ubuntus proprietary driver system?
[16:37] <Unknown1x> I have a Wubi Installation of Ubuntu 9.04. Is there a particular reason I am unable to mount my windows partition so that I can play my music?
[16:37] <llutz> docmax: windows != linux so what
[16:37] <IdleOne> docmax: without knowing make and model of the printer, is like me asking you why my car won't start. There is a thousand reasons....
[16:37] <n8tuser> nachox-> yes prevent them with no capabilities in /etc/sudoers file
[16:37] <grawity> Unknown1x: It is already mounted under /host, that's why.
[16:38] <grawity> n8tuser: He said su, not sudo.
[16:38] <cody_> werfact: No i did not reboot, i shut down x server and then started it back up after install was finished. I installed the driver with the one supplied by nvidia (NVIDIA-linux......run
[16:38] <cody_> )
[16:38] <IdleOne> docmax: llutz was a little harsh but he was correct in suggesting you look at the manual for the printer
[16:38] <docmax> IdleOne, the windows driver tell me: wrong paper format f.e.
[16:38] <thijs> Jordan_U, can i ask something more? I just googled a bit about internet usage, and it seems it might be my internet card failing. Would you care to help me out fixing this ?
[16:38] <werfact> cody_, try to reboot first
[16:38] <llutz> IdleOne: i'm far away from bein harsh :)
[16:38] <jkarlos> hello
[16:38] <IdleOne> docmax: then that is probably the issue.
[16:38] <n8tuser> grawity-> my coffee has not kicked in, hehe
[16:38] <cody_> werfact: Okay, reboot
[16:38] <cody_> ing
[16:39] <docmax> i dont know what the issue is
[16:39] <jkarlos> anybody can help me
[16:39] <gamerx> does anyone know of a gui program that shows nearby wireless networks, and their channels, etc.
[16:39] <xguru> jkarlos: maybe, whats the problem
[16:39] <n8tuser> gamerx-> use command line,  sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[16:39] <Unknown1x> grawity, thanks. seems so simple, but I guess you learn something everyday. ;)
[16:39] <psinetic> ok i'm back
[16:39] <jkarlos> well, not is a real problem
[16:39] <grawity> nachox: To limit usage of 'su', you'll have to make sure other users don't know the root password. 'su' does not support other ways - the reasons are described in http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/su-invocation.html
[16:39] <jkarlos> just, im looking for a sofware
[16:39] <grawity> nachox: To limit usage of 'sudo', you'll just remove the users from the 'admin' group.
[16:40] <jkarlos> maby a MRP system o logitic
[16:40] <psinetic> how do you set yourself as "here" in xchat?
[16:40] <jkarlos> or logistic
[16:40] <grawity> psinetic: Try /back
[16:40] <n8tuser> nachox-> besides, not knowing the password of the other users, that user cannot su to the new user
[16:40] <IdleOne> psinetic: /back
[16:40] <nachox> Graviton, su can do more than switching to the root user, and i have a couple of users sharing their passwords, so not disclosing the root password doesnt help here. They dont have it already
[16:40] <gamerx> n8tuser, okay thats great, allthough i asked for gui
[16:40] <psinetic> hmmmmm ok
[16:40] <docmax> cups reports: "If you have more than one Canon iP3500 series printer connected to this machine, please unload (and blacklist) the "usblp" kernel module as otherwise CUPS will not be able to distinguish your printers."
[16:40] <Unknown1x> why would I not have a context menu when I right click on the desktop?
[16:41] <docmax> (???)
[16:41] <grawity> nachox: Well, if user A gives his password to user B, what is the difference between B using 'su', and B simply logging out and logging in again?
[16:41] <cody_> werfact: Okay, now what? I finished rebooting
[16:41] <iggi> nachox: to be most secure, make the root passord nearly impossible (i.e. 64 char upper+lower+num+symbol) then simply remove everyone but your admin user from the admin group, also check /etc/sudoers that also limits who can sudo (which is similar)
[16:41] <xguru> docmax: i haven't had that problem before, but have you tried removing all printers and reinstalling them?
[16:42] <n8tuser> nachox-> perhaps you give a case of what your intentions really are..
[16:42] <docmax> xguru, i will try... one sec
[16:42] <nachox> Graviton, responsability assignment
[16:43] <psinetic> omg you have GOT to be freaking kidding me >_>
[16:43] <nachox> and suauth is what i was looking for
[16:43] <psinetic> ugh!!! >_>
[16:43] <tred> i have a quick and probably easy question, where is the shutdown/reboot/logout timer on jaunty? i want to edit that 30 seconds down to 5 or 10 secs
[16:43] <iggi> nchox: If you hate typing sudo every time, I would suggest removing everyone (but root) from admin, iirc that removed the use of sudo which should be in /sbin/ (non admin cannot see this) then simply add your admin approved users to /etc/sudoers and use sudo -s -H for perm sudo per session
[16:43] <psinetic> now amsn is gone too. freaking great
[16:43] <Sous_Cloporte_88> hi!!
[16:44] <thijs> Can anybody help me with the following ethernet problem? I did a cat /var/log/dmesg | grep eth and i saw this error: ACPI Error(psparse-0530); Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.P0P2.PEGP.LCD ._BQC] (Node f7414978), AE_AML_OPERAND_TYPE

[16:44] <thijs> My system totally froze
[16:44] <Sous_Cloporte_88> does anyone know how I can remove the last letter of a file in bash script?
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> Kilo-Tango:  ubuntu will install its own menu and by default it will show windws in the menu.
[16:44] <e66> is there any graph plottng GUI app in kubuntu?? I want to plot y=m-c/x type equation and some advanced functionality like integration, defferentiation etc
[16:44] <werfact> cody_, ok u there?
[16:44] <xguru> tred: http://bigkidsdidit.co.uk/disable-the-shutdown-timer-on-ubuntu  <--- think this will work
[16:45] <cody_> werfact: Yes i am, i have rebooted
[16:45] <amgarching> thijs:  M*eth*od
[16:45] <thijs> e66, There is a science ubuntu distro, maybe check their programs, i bet they've got one
[16:45] <cody_> werfact: And i see no nvidia control panel? :(
[16:45] <Chousuke> e66: octave is a matlab clone, but it's probably a bit heavyweight for you :P
[16:45] <BullHornL> how can i connect to the internet on ubuntu with a nokia phone (pc suite alternative?)
[16:45] <thijs> amgarching, what do you mean ? Sorry I do
[16:45] <Kilo-Tango> I know, but Ubuntus GRUB will still recognize Windows 7 as OpenSuse's GRUB did right Dr_Willis? Your positive?
[16:45] <Sous_Cloporte_88> a login file , that is to be turned into a berkeley db, must end with a "enter"
[16:45] <miha> e66: http://www.gnuplot.info/
[16:45] <thijs> don't understand what you where saying
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> Kilo-Tango:  it did here.
[16:46] <amgarching> thijs: that line has nothing to do with *eth*ernet
[16:46] <e66> miha:  I know about gnuplot. But I need a GUI.
[16:46] <miha> e66 Chousuke there's also real linux matlab :)
[16:46] <Kilo-Tango> ok gracias
[16:46] <tred> i dont want to disable it, just reduce it, plus im using kubuntu
[16:46] <Sous_Cloporte_88> when I add text to this file, I shall remove this "enter" thing, otherwise there will be a blank between the last word and the one I added
[16:46] <cody_> im installing xserver-xorg-dev  right now werfact
[16:46] <cody_> is that okay?
[16:46] <e66> miha:  Not matlab like soft.
[16:46] <Dr_Willis> Kilo-Tango:  the menu entry for windows 7 was idenbtical to the ones it makes for windows earlier versions... its alwyas seen it as far as i know
[16:46] <cody_> well, i guess it down matter much since it finished :p
[16:46] <BullHornL> how can i connect to the internet on ubuntu with a nokia phone (pc suite alternative?)
[16:47] <werfact> cody_, what problem do you have?
[16:47] <thijs> amgarching, Aww, oke... so where do I start looking then? I mean the system freezes after about 5~10 minutes
[16:47] <miha> e66: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/oswins/doc/mathematics.html
[16:47] <B9> My Update Manager says: you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. but i can't figure out what to do in sudo once i go there
[16:47] <miha> HMM
[16:47] <miha> sorry
[16:47] <miha> :)
[16:47] <cody_> werfact: I need to edit xorg.conf to where it allows me to add those lines
[16:47] <sczgilae> hello. i have an kubuntu 9.04 installation and for some reasons i have installed GDM to access to the system. The problem is taht when an normal user start session GDM says "creating /home/user directory" and i want to quit this message. anybody knows where is it?
[16:47] <e66> thijs: what is the repo source url of science distro? I'll add them and check packages from synaptic.
[16:47] <grawity> B9: Go to a terminal, and then run this command, exactly like it told you:    sudo dpkg --configure -a
[16:47] <erUSUL> B9: you have to manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' <<<
[16:47] <miha> e66: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=9881
[16:48] <tred> in kubuntu when i uncheck the confirms in stystem settings it no longer shows me the options, just drops to a login screen
[16:48] <cody_> werfact: Im going to restart gdm one last time
[16:48] <amgarching> thijs:  looses network connection? or literally freeses? Are you in front of the monitor?
[16:48] <thijs> e66, I wouldn't know, I think it's on their website
[16:49] <B9> grawity: i did that... (thanx for ur help)
[16:49] <cody_> Back werfact
[16:49] <B9> grawity: what do i hav to do now?
[16:49] <thijs> amgarching, literally freezes, can't move mouse, no panic button(alt prnt scr) etc, nothing works, have to hold the power switch to turn it off and on again
[16:50] <thijs> e66, check http://scibuntu.sourceforge.net/
[16:50] <BullHornL> how can i connect to the internet on ubuntu with a nokia phone (pc suite alternative?)
[16:50] <e66> thijs: thaks
[16:51] <werfact> cody_, the only thing i can recomend is find an old xorg.conf file on the net to see where to add the appropriate entries
[16:51] <cody_> How do i install compiz-check?
[16:51] <thijs> e66, np.
[16:51] <werfact> cody_, and u need to edit as root
[16:51] <wrapster> interesting scenario... system monitor doesnt even show vbox running?
[16:51] <cody_> werfact: okay
[16:51] <e66> miha:  Thanks, I got bunch of things.
[16:51] <wrapster> how is it possibe?
[16:51] <amgarching> thijs: this doesnt need to be network. Check if it runs longer in runlevel 2 or 3. (execute "init 2" or add "2" at the grub prompt)
[16:52] <thijs> amgarching, alright, will try that
[16:52] <cody_> werfact: http://www.crowsons.net/puters/txt/xorg.conf.fcm.txt like that?
[16:52] <amgarching> thijs: I use Cups-Lock to chek the LED in such cases
[16:52] <Pici> amgarching, thijs: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal.
[16:53] <cody_> is there any command or downloadable terminal command to allow me to create my own xorg.conf file without editing it myself?
[16:53] <thijs> amgarching, that one doesn't switch either. Anyway, do i just add a 2 in the grub kernel entry? (like after the "ro splash")
[16:53] <werfact> cody_, yeah that should work, just make sure you put them under right places, if you mess up, you can restore a backup from a console
[16:53] <amgarching> thijs, Pici: then run "stop gdm" right after boot, see what Pici had told
[16:53] <esther> hello
[16:54] <thijs> thank you for the explanation Pici
[16:54] <cody_> werfact: okay
[16:54] <andrewflix> ciao
[16:54] <andrewflix> !list
[16:55] <thijs> ok, so do i login via the gdm, or do I already switch to different runlevel ?
[16:56] <nsahoo> I don't seem to have java on firefox 3.5.3. How can I install it?
[16:56] <amgarching> thijs: login first, then stop the graphics subsystem by "sudo stop gdm", then stress-test your network scp/wget
[16:56] <thijs> amgarching, alright
[16:58] <amgarching> thijs: you dont even need to login into graphics, type Cnrtl-Alt-F1, login there and then "sudo stop gdm"
[16:58] <thijs> amgarching, umm, i just entered 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' but i just see a black screen with a flickering character in the left corner. Shall I go to another runlevel? (ctrl+alt f3)
[16:58] <cody_> werfact: Restarting GDM
[16:59] <grawity> thijs: That's called a terminal (or a tty) - not a runlevel.
[16:59] <amgarching> thijs: Cntrl-Alt-F1 should give you a login prompt
[16:59] <Madsy> Again, is it safe to install the nvidia drivers from source, instead of using the "proprietary drivers" GUI?
[16:59] <TeLe> anyone having problems with flashplayer installer working in firefox 3.5.5
[16:59] <thijs> grawity, thank you
[16:59] <Pici> !crosspost | TeLe
[17:00] <grawity> thijs: Usually ttys 1-6 are set for text-only logins, and the seventh has X running (the GUI)
[17:00] <psinetic> alright folks, it's 1 am, night night time.
[17:00] <thijs> amgarching, yeah, i logged in, and stopped the display mgr, just need to think of some download that will stress the network
[17:00] <thijs> grawity, thank you. That was clarifying
[17:01] <amgarching> thijs: "w3m" is a console web-browser
[17:01] <Unknown1x> why would I not have a context menu when I right click on the desktop?
[17:01] <soulchild> Hi all...
[17:03] <thijs> amgarching, alright. well i can surf around and no freeze yet. So is this a display problem? =/
[17:03] <subito> to get ubuntu 64 bits, do i have to fully reinstall my system?
[17:03] <erUSUL> subito: yes
[17:03] <Biganon> Guys
[17:03] <Biganon> I've deleted /etc/apache2
[17:03] <subito> erUSUL: too bad :(
[17:03] <Biganon> and I can't get it back with a reinstall
[17:03] <Biganon> what should I do
[17:03] <Biganon> ?
[17:04] <perlsyntax> Can you install like fluxbox and other one from apt-get?
[17:04] <amgarching> thijs: graphics is another week point in linux, maybe. Was it a fresh install? What Ubuntu version?
[17:04] <thijs> amgarching, sort of fresh install, and ubuntu 8.10
[17:05] <cody_> LOL, im kinda screwed. That one xorg.conf file is no good, im trying to restore to backups ;) bbs
[17:05] <Biganon> Hey
[17:06] <Biganon> I've removed /etc/apache2, I can't get it back by re-installing apache2
[17:06] <Biganon> What should I do
[17:06] <Biganon> ?
[17:06] <amgarching> thijs: what is you graphics card "lspci -v", "grep -i Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[17:06] <BlouBlou> !enter | Biganon
[17:06] <thijs> amgarching, fresh as in no stuff installed yet, but installing was a little bit of a problem because it would constantly crash
[17:06] <Pici> Biganon: reinstall apache2-common
[17:06] <amgarching> thijs: check the CPU fan
[17:07] <Biganon> Pici: I've already done that
[17:07] <Guest59302> Anyone feel like screwing with X settings with me?
[17:07] <thijs> amgarching, is there any possibility how i can post that from CLI to somewhere else?
[17:08] <cody_> Okay, im back on a default xorg.conf
[17:08] <trijntje> thijs, install pastebinit
[17:09] <thijs> trijntje, thanks, though i installed openssh-server, so having a terminal here too :D
[17:09] <cody_> restarting GDM one last time
[17:09] <amgarching> thijs:  lspci -v | mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>may or may not work, dont remember
[17:11] <cody_> Okay. In my xorg.conf in the first section, i added Device "nvidia" and Load "glx" and now i get this error: Problem parsing config file.. Error parsing config file
[17:11] <cody_> i have a backup ready if i need to restore
[17:12] <cody_> Im in TTY (CTRL+ALT+F1)
[17:12] <amgarching> cody_: Load "glx" probably belongs to a different section
[17:12] <cody_> amgarching: Any idea what section?
[17:13] <amgarching> cody_: your pastbin was talking about "Modules"
[17:13] <thijs> amgarching, it's taking a little long, but i'm posting to pastebin. Sec... http://pastebin.ca/1623857
[17:13] <cody_> amgarching: Correct, but there is no such section as modules
[17:13] <DeathFox> my cd rom dont wanna eject 90 percent of the time it acts like it does but the trey dont come out
[17:13] <DeathFox> what is it probleyu
[17:13] <DeathFox> typo
[17:13] <amgarching> cody_:  copy/paste rename another one
[17:14] <cody_> amgarching: Okay, will i need to restore my backup first? or can i edit it inside TTY1?
[17:14] <thijs> amgarching, in the comments i posted the xorg driver
[17:14] <Biganon> it's okay
[17:14] <pusewicz-werk> hi, with ld, how can I lislist shared objects for a binary?
[17:14] <Biganon> I had to reinstall : libapache2-mod-php5
[17:14] <Biganon> thank you for your "help".
[17:15] <cody_> !attitude
[17:15] <amgarching> thijs: this is your GPU: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series
[17:15] <cody_> i am going to restore my oringal xorg. brb
[17:15] <thijs> GPU = graphical processing unit?
[17:15] <plue> yes
[17:15] <thijs> as in: yes thats my video card
[17:16] <amgarching> thijs: google for it, maybe somebody already has reported similar problems
[17:16] <thijs> amgarching, alright, thank you for all your time already
[17:17] <amgarching> thijs: no problem, sitting and waiting for the second upgrade 8.10 -> 9.04 -> 9.10 to finish ...
[17:17] <thijs> amgarching, it has some problems for jaunty, but u see it worked a few months ago...
[17:17] <cody_> Okay, restoring xorg.conf did not work, i got error: Greeter application failed.
[17:17] <thijs> ahh, you going alpha ehh
[17:18] <saba_> Is it possible to resize icons in the panels, when they are hovered by the mouse? in GNOME
[17:18] <docmax> i fixed the problem
[17:18] <cody_> Im restoring ubuntu haha. I am SO glad i have a sep partition for /home ;) thing is, how do i make the installation know that is /home
[17:19] <LaireTM> Is it possible to mount a ftp folder?
[17:19] <thijs> amgarching, do you think this would help me as well: http://www.paulocabido.com/ubuntu/ati-mobility-radeon-hd-3400-series-jaunty-xorg-and-compiz/
[17:19] <n8tuser> cody_-> during install, you select that /home as part of the install
[17:20] <n8tuser> docmax what was troubling the printer? and how were you able to get the status you seeked earlier?
[17:20] <cody_> n8tuser: Okay, but wont it format it?
[17:20] <LaireTM> Found only lufs, but that isn't in my Synaptic
[17:20] <n8tuser> cody_-> there is a selection to format it or not, do not check formatting it
[17:21] <cody_> n8tuser: OOOOOOOOOOOH okay. Thank you very much! restoring ubuntu now :)
[17:21] <axisys> where can I get a driver fro hp le2201w 22" lcd monitor ?
[17:21] <LaireTM> Found only lufs, but that isn't in my apt
[17:21] <llutz> axisys: displays usually don't need a driver
[17:22] <sczgilae> hello. i have an kubuntu 9.04 installation and because of some reasons i have installed GDM to access to the system. The problem is that when an normal user start session GDM says "creating /home/user directory" and i want to quit this message. anybody knows where is it?
[17:22] <axisys> llutz: i have 22" that supports 1600 x 1400 .. but i get only 1024
[17:23] <llutz> axisys: your video-card needs configuration
[17:23] <axisys> llutz: how do I do it? or are you saying my video card may not support it?
[17:23] <docmax> n8tuser, i just hold the button on the printer for 5 sec
[17:23] <llutz> axisys: what card are you using?
[17:23] <docmax> but i still never know why its blinking...
[17:24] <thijs> Is there a possibility of installing a different distro from a livecd without installing the livecd?
[17:24] <amgarching> thijs: no idea. Ask people what is known about your ATI. I've met only Intel/Nvidia. Next thing I would try is to put Device = "vesa" into Driver section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf, it will be terribly slow, but will test the graphics subsytem
[17:24] <axisys> llutz: i am using hp nc6220 laptop .. and here is the lshw http://pastebin.com/f798634ee
[17:25] <thijs> amgarching, alright.. Will ask around a bit then. :) Thank you
[17:25] <axisys> llutz: Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller
[17:25] <Rumo> Hi @ all:
[17:25] <Rumo> I have a >Intel Modem PCI 56K CTR-21< and get the following line when I type lspci:
[17:25] <Rumo> 01:06.0 Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface
[17:25] <Rumo> what does it mean? which driver do i need to run it under ubuntu 9.04 64 BIT ??
[17:25] <axisys> llutz: driver=agpgart-intel module=intel_agp
[17:25] <FloodBot3> Rumo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:26] <n8tuser> docmax wrong paper size?  i have to struggle with that myself, i didnt realize that OpenOffice defaults to european A4 on another pc, and when brought over to where my printer is, it carries that A4 and my default is letter size
[17:26] <llutz> axisys: try xrandr
[17:26] <maurer_> How do I set a wireless connection to remain active when I log out?
[17:26] <thijs> Anybody knows how to get the ATI Radeon 3400HD card working correct on ubuntu 8.10?
[17:26] <docmax> n8tuser, whe have to struggle cause we use ubuntu
[17:27] <incentifit> I've created a developer group and added several developer users to that group.  My user account's home has a "tools" folder that contains a couple of command line applications that I want other developers to be able to use.  Where should I move these applications so that current and new users can use them?  I'm guessing there is a proper location for such things.
[17:27] <n8tuser> maurer_-> how do you know wireless if not connected once you log out?
[17:27] <axisys> llutz: http://pastebin.com/feacdab4
[17:27] <docmax> driver support is choppy
[17:27] <n8tuser> docmax-> what? your blaming ubuntu? perhaps use a better printer like HP ?
[17:27] <maurer_> n8tuser: I have a backgrounded process, I log out of the gnome interface, and when I come back it is complaining that the network disappeared.
[17:28] <llutz> axisys: seems the intel-driver doesn't support that resolution. try driver "intel"
[17:28] <trikiki> hi
[17:28] <n8tuser> maurer_-> what does your background process do? access the net?
[17:28] <trikiki> I have a doubht with openssl, I read that when I send the csr to the ca this is signed by my private key (to check my private and public key are correct) is that correct ?
[17:28] <Rumo> Hi @ all:               I have a >Intel Modem PCI 56K CTR-21< and get the following line when I type lspci:               01:06.0 Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface          what does it mean? which driver do i need to run it under ubuntu 9.04 64 BIT ??
[17:28] <axisys> llutz: where do I get the driver 'intel' ?
[17:28] <maurer_> n8tuser: Yes--it is actually just a test to get the net working so I can use krb5 as an alternate auth method when in network range.
[17:29] <n8tuser> incentifit-> usually in /usr/local/bin
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> !dialup > rumo
[17:29] <LaireTM> Hello, how i can mount a FTP Server?
[17:29] <llutz> axisys: create a xorg.conf, load it there
[17:29] <IdleOne> docmax: it is not Linux fault if driver support for your printer is "choppy" complain to the manufacturer and ask them to put out some linux drivers for the product
[17:29] <whileimhere> hi. I was wondering if I have two machines, one wired and one wireless on the same router how hard is it to set one up so that I can control its files via the wireless machine?
[17:29] <n8tuser> maurer_-> tried  screen perhaps?
[17:29] <cody____> Okay, im halfway through the install. Is Ext4 or Ext3 better?
[17:30] <ActionParsnip> LaireTM: http://ubuntu-install.blogspot.com/2009/05/ftp-site-in-fstab.html
[17:30] <cody____> im going to install jaunty, then upgade to karmic after it is installe
[17:30] <cody____> d
[17:30] <maurer_> n8tuser: This does not help. The problem is that nm-applet/NetworkManager kills the connection when I log out of the graphical interface. I can background the process just fine.
[17:30] <n8tuser> whileimhere-> i think i advise you of this before, unless you get yourself familiar with routing, do not have two interfaces on same subnet (served by same router)
[17:30] <callnett> hi
[17:30] <axisys> llutz: can't do it dynamically.. like dpkg-reconfiure something?
[17:30] <n8tuser> maurer_-> you can try do disable nm-applet and just use the /etc/network/interfaces file
[17:31] <callnett> wich program i need to install programs because i get errors
[17:31] <maurer_> n8tuser: OK, do we have any nice config tools for setting up WPA there, or is it just an edit by hand deal at this point?
[17:31] <cody____> I'm at the partitioning part of the install of ubuntu 9.04. I am wanting to know if Ext 3 or Ext 4 is better (P.S. i am going to upgrade to karmic koala after)
[17:31] <Rumo> ActionParsnip: what do you mean by !dialup   ??
[17:32] <n8tuser> maurer_-> by hand, and all those can be controlled via the /etc/nework/if-up.d
[17:32] <n8tuser> maurer_-> man interfaces
[17:32] <cody____> I'll just use Ext 4
[17:32] <n8tuser> Rumo->  you require dial up access still?
[17:32] <IdleOne> cody____: karmic uses ext4 default. so use ext4, wether is is better or worse is a matter of opinion. ext4 works fine here with jaunty
[17:32] <cody____> IdleOne: Okay, thank you
[17:33] <Rumo> n8tuser: no have no access here (dial up)
[17:33] <MrSchmo> any know how to use Kismet? i got this program running and it was probing wireless networks around me. but when i tried to close out the program, my wireless connections stopped working. i can get my wireless up until i reboot my computer. why is that?
[17:33] <Rumo> n8tuser: but i travel to a village and theres only dial up...
[17:33] <cody____> okay, going to go wash family dishes, brb
[17:34] <cody____> its also installing :p
[17:34] <n8tuser> MrSchmo-> try to use sudo ifup wlan0  and if the driver somehow got unloaded, use modprobe or insmod to reload it
[17:35] <n8tuser> without rebooting
[17:35] <tntc> is there a way to make my touchscreen pointer different from my regular pointer in Xorg?
[17:35] <tntc> just when I touch the screen?
[17:35] <n8tuser> Rumo-> what is the problem you're having with dial up? i did not read the entire question you had earlier
[17:35] <mortezaes> Hi everybody
[17:35] <mortezaes> Is it possible to create an image from flash memory with dd ?
[17:35] <mortezaes> I tried it, but when i put the image on flash again, the flash was damaged (Unformatted)
[17:35] <LaireTM> ActionParsnip: the first command give me an error
[17:35] <iamleneko> hi
[17:36] <erUSUL> mortezaes: what dd command you used ?
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> mortezaes:  dd if=/dev/sda1 of=whatever  for a partition.. use 'sda' for the whole drive
[17:36] <iamleneko> i am into update to the karmic beta
[17:36] <erUSUL> !karmic | iamleneko
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> mortezaes:  for 'bad' media - youmay want to try dd_rescue or some similer recovery tools
[17:36] <Rumo> n8tuser: Hi @ all: I have a >Intel Modem PCI 56K CTR-21< and get the following line when I type lspci: 01:06.0 Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface what does it mean? which driver do i need to run it under ubuntu 9.04 64 BIT ??
[17:36] <LaireTM> ActionParsnip: but its in in geman and i dont now the translation
[17:36] <mortezaes> erUSUL: as Dr_Willis said
[17:36] <iamleneko> (i know this)
[17:36] <thijs> amgarching, I started gdm again, and not copying files, (no firefox open) and it hasn't froze yet. Does that mean it might not be the driver problems but still firefox?
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> mortezaes:  take care to not use 'sda' when you mean 'sda1'
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> Rumo: ubottu gave you a factoid to read with some links
[17:36] <iamleneko> just it seems to freeze at configuring mysql-server
[17:37] <iamleneko> wonder how i can bypass this to let it finish
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> LaireTM: i havent given any commands, only to rumo
[17:37] <erUSUL> mortezaes: with sda1 ? you should have dome the whole drive (sda) to avoid confusion when restoring (as Dr_Willis has said)
[17:37] <mortezaes> Thx Dr_Willis
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> !dialup > Rumo
[17:37] <n8tuser> Rumo-> umm it looks like thats a Windows modem, so you may not get the correct driver, trial and error is your best bet..  look for it at intel web site?
[17:37] <Rumo> ActionParsnip: i read this before...
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> Rumo: thats how you get modems working
[17:37] <erUSUL> mortezaes: becouse if you read sda1 and then restored to sda you loose the mbr and table of parition etc
[17:37] <iamleneko> ah
[17:37] <iamleneko> sorry
[17:38] <iamleneko> not in the right room
[17:38] <mortezaes> ok erUSUL , thank u
[17:38] <gpled> what is a good video card for ubuntu, when building a nice desktop?
[17:38] <LaireTM> ActionParsnip: The first command on the page, wich link you posted
[17:38] <werfact> how can i upgrade installed app from the install file of the new version of the app?
[17:38] <Xcell> gpled-  nvidia 7600 or better
[17:39] <HexTasy_> so I'm trying to PXE/Netboot Ubuntu-live for PPC.  All works untill it tried to find the CDROM - which I have the contents of exported via NFS on my server.
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> !info curlftpfs
[17:39] <HexTasy_> is there a boot option or something to tell the kernel not to look for a CDROM, and use NFS instead?
[17:39] <gpled> Xcell: thanks
[17:39] <Xcell> ok
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> LaireTM: make sure you have universe repository enabled
[17:40] <amgarching> thijs: running firefox is a kind of stress-test of graphics. If graphics driver is buggy it may expose the bugs. Try running OpenGL apps, also an extreme test.
[17:40] <ActionParsnip> could run doom3 natively, thats fun :D
[17:40] <amgarching> thijs: glxgears is a simple OpenGL app
[17:40] <thijs> amgarching, how do i know what kind of app is an opengl app? Which apps are written with openGL ?
[17:40] <ichat> HexTasy_:  -  debian hass network install's
[17:40] <thijs> k
[17:40] <thijs> ty
[17:41] <HexTasy_> but I'm not working with an install
[17:41] <HexTasy_> i'm working with a LiveCD
[17:41] <nerdy_kid> i cant make my ftp server work
[17:41] <nerdy_kid> been trying to get it to work for months
[17:41] <TheJesus> nerdy_kid: Get any errors ?
[17:42] <TheJesus> or Just wrong configuration
[17:42] <TonyB82> Hi all. I have Ubuntu 9.04 and I need to install Ghostscript 8.63, but the latest in the repositories for 9.04 is 8.61. Is there an easy way to get it?
[17:42] <ichat> HexTasy_:  -  its possible  ive seen howto's about it,   for example on howto  for  filezilla...
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> TonyB82: you will need a PPA
[17:42] <jhg> !help
[17:42] <adamkex> how good is the hardware support in the mini cd, which is only 10-30mb large?
[17:43] <HexTasy_> everything work fine till it tries to mount the CDROM - I just want it to try and mount NFS instead of the physical CDROM
[17:43] <thijs> amgarching, there's no such thing as glxgears apparently
[17:43] <Slart> adamkex: iirc it downloads the same packages included on the normal install cd.. so it should be the same
[17:43] <sczgilae> HI! i have this code http://pastebin.com/d5f402f7f   in /etc/profile to put some shortcuts on the users desktop depends of the language they choose but in /etc/profile doesnt run. If i run manually everything is ok. i supose that when /etc/profile executes the Desktop directory dont exist still .
[17:43] <ichat> HexTasy_:  - it boot an boot image from tftp,  and than mounts either an nfs  ftp or even a http stream for its live image... let me look where i fount it
[17:43] <nerdy_kid> TheJesus when i try to list dir contents from terminal :500 Illegal PORT Command ftp: bind: Address already in use  (i forwarded the correct ports)  what is happening is it is sending the data encypted to random ports
[17:43] <nerdy_kid> cant fix it
[17:44] <TonyB82> OK, I've searched on launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas for ghostscript, but it doesn't return anything. What can I do?
[17:44] <adamkex> Slart: i meant would it support all hardware before it connects to the internet
[17:44] <ActionParsnip> thijs: amgarching: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Glxgears_is_not_a_Benchmark
[17:44] <Slart> adamkex: I think the installer itself supports the same hardware..
[17:44] <thijs> thx ActionParsnip
[17:44] <jhg> HI I am trying to install ubuntu onto a Gigabyte Mini PC (http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Barebone/Products_Spec.aspx?ProductID=2016) The installer works fine but the system is unable to boot into a graphical desktop. I get a black screen but can switch tty and the console works.
[17:44] <adamkex> Slart: ok, thank you
[17:45] <Slart> adamkex: you're welcome
[17:45] <HexTasy_> ichat: I have no problems botting the image.  but as I said, I don't want it to look for a CDROM, I want it to use NFS
[17:46] <amgarching> thijs: try "aptitude install mesa-utils", ActionParsnip: his X with ATI is freezing randomly.

[17:47] <nerdy_kid> MR_OS not possible if the disk is in journaling mode
[17:47] <jhg> MR_OS: have you tried using fuse?
[17:47] <callnett> ActionParsnip: how
[17:48] <MR_OS> how can i check if it is in journaling mode? how can i change it?
[17:48] <TheJesus> nerdy_kid: Can you access it from localhost so <IP_ADDRESS>?
[17:48] <sczgilae> HI! i have this code http://pastebin.com/d5f402f7f   in /etc/profile to put some shortcuts on the users desktop depends of the language they choose but in /etc/profile doesnt run. If i run manually everything is ok. i supose that when /etc/profile executes the Desktop directory dont exist still .
[17:48] <nerdy_kid> TheJesus yes, and via sftp
[17:48] <KaibutsuX> I only know this because I was trying to dual boot xp and ubuntu, but my lan says media disconnected in ipconfig in windows and the wired light is off on the router when I'm in windows, but when I run the livecd for linux, the light turns back on and I have wired lan, I reboot back into windows and now the nic is on, but if I reboot again, no more internet in windows until I do this reset thing by running ubuntu again
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> callnett: copy all the output. go to http://pastebin.com  and paste the text there and type your name, when you click paste you will see a new page. Copy the address bar and paste it here
[17:48] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: sftp comes from openssh-server
[17:49] <jhg> HI I am trying to install ubuntu onto a Gigabyte Mini PC (http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Barebone/Products_Spec.aspx?ProductID=2016) The installer works fine but the system is unable to boot into a graphical desktop. I get a black screen but can switch tty and the console works.
[17:49] <_Trullo> anyone got any idea why atilibusb won't load?
[17:49] <nerdy_kid> iceroot, yeah but the issue is that i can only access my ftp server from a sftp client onless im on LAN
[17:50] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: run nmap from lan to see if the port is open
[17:50] <nerdy_kid> MR_OS sorry not a mac user, itd be in you disk config utility, no idea were it is sorry
[17:50] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: port for ftp
[17:50] <llutz> nerdy_kid: setup ftp to passive mode and check your portforwarding
[17:50] <nerdy_kid> iceroot it is, the encypted data is sent to random ports so it doesn't help
[17:50] <thijs> amgarching, http://pastebin.com/f629780ff
[17:51] <nerdy_kid> the server or client to passive?
[17:51] <nerdy_kid> iceroot the server or client to passive?
[17:51] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: fromclient look with nmap if the prt is open
[17:51] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: port 21 imo
[17:51] <KaibutsuX> anyone know about my NIC?
[17:51] <thijs> amgarching, i searched for opengl in the package manager, and installed Achilles, some sort of opengl stuff. It's been running steadily for 5min+
[17:52] <tobylane> When i convert from fat to ntfs what happens to the files
[17:52] <nerdy_kid> iceroot it is
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> tobylane: i'd ask in ##windows

[17:52] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: ftp serveradress    from terminal, says what?
[17:52] <phate> hi
[17:53] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: from client terminal
[17:53] <asus901> Hello
[17:53] <JonathanEllis> !hello | asus901
[17:53] <nerdy_kid> iceroot logs on, but when i try to list dir contents (ls) it gives me the error.  I wiresharked it, its sending ssl packets
[17:54] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: ftp != ssl
[17:54] <simmerz> hi, i'm trying to use 2 screens with an nvidia card and twinview. on OS X when I try the same, the two screens are actually different sizes but in Ubuntu, the usable area includes a massive block of non-existant space. any idea why?
[17:54] <asus901> I need your help...
[17:54] <asus901> I have a laptop, that in bios, SATA AHCI and I have installed Ubuntu in the bios so well ... SATA AHCI but on reboot, will not start. It cuelgua after the Ubuntu loading bar and black screen. If so I select SATA IDE Bios loads correctly and works perfect. But I read that SATA AHCI is compatible with Ubuntu. I have to do, to start Ubuntu in SATA AHCI mode?
[17:54] <nerdy_kid> iceroot right, thats the problem, the stupid 'ftp' server is really a sftp server, which i dont want.
[17:54] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: then use proftpd
[17:54] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: or any other working ftp-server
[17:54] <llutz> simmerz: because thats the way X handles screens.
[17:55] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: and sftp = ftp over ssh, not ftp with ssl
[17:55] <simmerz> llutz: seems wrong to me
[17:55] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: you mean ftps
[17:55] <MR_OS> thanks nerdy_kid i have found a wokaround i will reboot to try it now... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2346494#post2346494
[17:55] <phate> i tried that http://eklenet.de/archives/Funktionstasten-des-SL500-unter-Linux-9.html but it doesnt work, can somebody help me?
[17:55] <amgarching> thijs: they seem to be discussing "radeon" vs. "fglrx" drivers for ATI on the internets, learn which you are using, learn the difference. Eventualy try both. No further ideas what is going wrong.
[17:55] <simmerz> i mean, i add something to my desktop and it disappears off to the top of my usable area that i can't see or use
[17:56] <simmerz> and my mouse goes off into the invisible area past the toolbars - also a bit odd
[17:56] <nerdy_kid> iceroot ok sorry maybe it is get them mixed up, which ever one sends the data part encrypted.  ive tryed several diffent servers, they all do the same thing. sorry to be a pain, but i really have no clue why :(
[17:56] <thijs> amgarching, thank you for all your time and effort. However, i still think it's firefox, i mean it's running, downloading, playing music, and running an opengl app.
[17:57] <over51> buonasera
[17:57] <callnett> ActionParsnip:thanks
[17:57] <iceroot> nerdy_kid: hm, sounds strange
[17:57] <nerdy_kid> iceroot lol all the people i ask say that haha
[17:57] <asus901> I have a laptop, that in bios, SATA AHCI and I have installed Ubuntu in the bios so well ... SATA AHCI but on reboot, will not start.

[17:58] <whileimhere> Hi. When I boot the machine it drops to a command line. I am not sure what I did to the GDM but is there a way to reinstall the gdm or whatnot without re-installing the whole system?
[17:58] <nerdy_kid> iceroot i mean, its not an issue from linux to linux connections, but windows doesnt have native support(that i know of) for sftp
[17:58] <ubuntu_> Hi, where can I go with problems on the karmic beta
[17:58] <adamkex> what does the server version of ubuntu install?
[17:58] <iceroot> whileimhere: what tells    sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

[17:59] <whileimhere> iceroot: I dont know. I even try running the startx from the cli and get that it cant find any screens. I was playing with the reconfigure of the xserver but it failed aboislui
[17:59] <thijs> amgarching, thanks. And goodluck with your karmic release!

[18:03] <callnett> ActionParsnip:32
[18:03] <whileimhere> iceroot: THANKS!
[18:03] <iceroot> whileimhere: we deleted your old xorg.conf and if x-server cant find a xorg.conf it will create a new (most times working) one#
[18:04] <whileimhere> Iceroot: Do you know anything about how to directly boot into a program and not use XFCE but something lighter like fluxbox or even startx ?
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> callnett: ok gimme a sec
[18:04] <datz> Hi, I'm wondering how I can get a nvidia control panel on my ubuntu desktop?
[18:04] <iceroot> whileimhere: you want to start a GUI-program directly without a desktop environment?
[18:05] <iceroot> datz: installing the nonfree-driver
[18:05] <callnett> ActionParsnip: ok, take your time
[18:05] <nerdy_kid> datz nvidia-settings
[18:05] <datz> iceroot, I'm pretty sure it's installed.
[18:05] <datz> nerdy_kid, is that a command?
[18:05] <whileimhere> iceroot: I am setting my MAME cab up and want retain as much system resources for the MAME program as I can. I would like to boot directly in to the frontend called wahcade
[18:06] <iceroot> datz: type oon the terminal nvidia and then twitimes the tab-key
[18:06] <nerdy_kid> datz yeah
[18:06] <mgv1> not always i able to see the address bar history-  why?
[18:06] <iceroot> wiretapped: hm and wahcade is an x-app?
[18:07] <datz> nerdy_kid:  install: missing destination file operand after `nvidia-settings'
[18:07] <datz> tried to install it
[18:07] <xdccMule[1802WZ]> ciao
[18:07] <ActionParsnip> callnett: run all this as one command: cd ~/; wget http://www.opera.com/download/get.pl?id=32303&location=40&nothanks=yes&sub=marine; sudo dpkg -i ./opera_10.10.4672.gcc4.qt3_i386.deb
[18:07] <xdccMule[1802WZ]> !list
[18:07] <whileimhere> iceroot: wahcade is written in python.
[18:08] <datz> nerdy_kid nevermind I think.  forgot apt-get :) been using yum latley
[18:08] <iceroot> whileimhere: that is not saying if it is needing x or not
[18:08] <iceroot> wiretapped: imo
[18:08] <iceroot> wiretapped: sorry wrong nick
[18:08] <whileimhere> iceroot: I think that wahcade needs some DE. I am sure that it needs X
[18:08] <iceroot> whileimhere: so why not using a very small de?
[18:08] <ActionParsnip> callnett: id yu add this line to your /etc/apt/sources.list   you can use apt-get to install it: deb http://archive.canonical.com/ jaunty partner
[18:09] <whileimhere> iceroot: I rebooted. It takes me to the CL
[18:09] <iceroot> whileimhere: xfce4 or smaller
[18:09] <nerdy_kid> datz did you install the nvidia driver through the Hardware Drivers program?
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> callnett: you will need to run this to import the opera key: wget -O - http://deb.opera.com/archive.key | sudo apt-key add -
[18:09] <ManDay> Say, when is Karmic due?
[18:09] <iceroot> whileimhere: normal ubuntu or server-edition?

[18:09] <ManDay> 22nd, was it?
[18:09] <whileimhere> iceroot: Normal
[18:09] <xdccMule[1802WZ]> !list
[18:09] <iceroot> whileimhere: installed adriver by hand?
[18:10] <ManDay> !karmic
[18:10] <datz> nerdy_kid, installing a package "nvidia-settings"
[18:10] <whileimhere> iceroot: I do not know what a driver is
[18:10] <TheJesus> is it safe to use the * , so apt-get remove gnome*
[18:11] <iceroot> TheJesus: no
[18:11] <TheJesus> I want to remove all gnome
[18:11] <iceroot> TheJesus: i am very sure that will break your system
[18:11] <ActionParsnip> !purekde | TheJesus
[18:11] <whileimhere> iceroot: If I installed fluxbox via synaptic and then wanted to boot into fluxbox and then wahcade automagically how would I do that?
[18:11] <JonathanEllis> Is there a simple way to get a list of packages installed on my machine that are additional to the default install? I want to upgrade my distro from Hardy Studio to Jaunty Desktop but I dont want to retain all the Studio stuff, just the extra packages I installed myself.
[18:11] <iceroot> whileimhere: at loginscreen choose fluxxbox session
[18:12] <datz> nerdy_kid, just waiting for updates to finish before I can install. thanks. ;)
[18:12] <whileimhere> iceroot: okay
[18:12] <TheJesus> ActionParsnip: ok thanks
[18:12] <iceroot> whileimhere: and at your program to autostart but i dont now fluxxbox so dont know how to autostart there something+
[18:13] <TheJesus> whileimhere:  to auto start program once fluxbox start add a line in .fluxbox/startup
[18:13] <nerdy_kid> datz ok if u have any issues find me on ubuntu forums; i use nvidia and have done some extensive tweaking ;)
[18:14] <datz> nerdy_kid, thanks, appreciate it
[18:14] <miranda_> hello, very stupid question, why when i divide 1/C2 in openoffice calc i get a date instead of the value?
[18:14] <nerdy_kid> datz no problem :)
[18:15] <miranda_> hello?
[18:15] <whileimhere> The Jesus Thanks I will try that
[18:15] <wickoo> how can I run an script as root? I think chmod +s must do it but it asks password (sudo password I guess)
[18:15] <hwilde> !sudo
[18:15] <firdau5> hi miranda
[18:16] <TheJesus> miranda_:  Ask in a oppen office dev chan , bit to specific
[18:16] <h32Lg> hi everybody
[18:16] <tavi> hy
[18:16] <tavi> how i can see what's the refresh rate ?
[18:16] <tavi> and how can i chage it?
 i would imagine you should set calc up to do calculus
[18:16] <datz> nerdy_kid, just trying to get my dual monitor setup working, am I heading in the right direction?
[18:16] <whileimhere> is XGM faster then GDM
[18:17] <Aurus> Where does the popularity in the Package Manager come from?  Actual installations?  Is there some sort of "voting" somewhere?
 i don't think it can be done though
[18:17] <grawity> wickoo: You're almost right about chmod +s - but 1) it doesn't work for scripts anymore, only for binary executables, and 2) that executable must request the new privileges using setreuid(), simply having the setuid bit is not enough.
[18:17] <whileimhere> okay going nuts. My system still boots into the command line not the gdm
[18:17] <TheJesus> whileimhere: yes , or just type startx in tty even lighter
 use the calculator in scientific
[18:17] <grawity> Aurus: IIRC, there's a package that reports what you have installed to Them.
[18:17] <firdau5> hi miranda
[18:17] <firdau5> you still there?
[18:17] <grawity> Aurus: popularity-something, don't remember the exact name.
[18:17] <Aurus> grawity: Okay, so it's actual installs.  Thanks! :)
[18:18] <unop> popularity-contest
[18:18] <unop> or popcon as its known
[18:18] <firdau5> miranda, refer this tutorial.. it may help you http://www.tutorialsforopenoffice.org/tutorial/Spreadsheet_Math.html
[18:19] <Aurus> unop: grawity:  Is there anywhere one can see raw data on packages?  ie:  If I'm comparing two similar packages, one is 1 star, the other 4.  I can estimate, but curious if I can see numbers?
[18:19] <grawity> Aurus: http://popcon.ubuntu.com/ seems to be it.
[18:19] <phate> http://eklenet.de/archives/Funktionstasten-des-SL500-unter-Linux-9.html  i can control the sound but can´t control the brightness.
[18:20] <Aurus> grawity: Duh, I found that right after I asked :)
[18:20] <unop> Aurus, hmm, not sure - I would delve into the sourcecode for popcon and start looking there
[18:20] <Rumo> how do i know the RAM size of my computer?
[18:20] <hwilde> Rumo, free
[18:20] <wickoo> grawity: Thanks! But I have a cgi script that executes the useradd command (I don't know if the whole idea is good or not). What should I do now? It can not be binary
 interesting.......can one indeed use calculus in calc?
[18:20] <grawity> wickoo: Find out what user does the script run as. Edit the sudoers file to allow passworless useradd to that user.
[18:20] <Rumo> hwilde: thank you
[18:21] <callnett> ActionParsnip:sorry but is not working
[18:21] <wickoo> grawity: Nice idea! thanks again
[18:21] <firdau5> Rumo,  go to System ---> Administration ---> System Monitor
[18:21] <grawity> wickoo: And for added security, make a wrapper for useradd, to disallow creating users with uid=0 :)
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> callnett: ok lets clarify. Did you run: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list   ?
[18:22] <firdau5> cbone, I never heard about that.. heh
[18:22] <cbones> nor i
[18:22] <wickoo> grawity: What does your last message mean? ;)
[18:22] <unop> grawity, then perhaps, a dpkg-divert for the new actual location of useradd? :)
[18:22] <firdau5> :)
[18:23] <grawity> unop: Not necessary, as it's a cgi script calling useradd - and it's enough to modify that one with the new path, IMO.
[18:24] <squeegy> how can i alter sudo's PATH?
[18:24] <grawity> wickoo: Eh, I'm just saying that since your addition to sudoers ( www-data ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/adduser ) allows CGI scripts to add new users, someone might found a way of tricking your script into creating a user whose uid equals 0 (and all users with uid=0 have root privileges automatically)
[18:24] <squeegy> seems like it ignores /etc/environment
[18:25] <phate> should i delete the module and try it with the source?
[18:25] <cemc> hi. I have a laptop and a desktop machine with ubuntu 9.04 on both. I installed sensors-applet, and on the laptop it shows CPU and other temperatures. on the desktop it doesn't, only the GPU temp (and hdd). what's wrong?
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> callnett: its a simple question
[18:26] <miranda_> thank you firdau5
[18:26] <cemc> it's not some old machine, it's an intel i7-920 with some gigabyte mobo. do I need to do something to get it to show cpu temps?
[18:26] <firdau5> welcome
[18:26] <callnett> ActionParsnip: i dont know, everithing is hard. Is a simple think and become a complicated hiber tech
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> lm-sensors cemc
[18:26] <llutz>  cemc install lm-sensors
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> callnett: ok run the command, it will open the sources file for you, let me know when it is opened
[18:27] <docmax> hello, is there a document management solution for ubuntu?
[18:27] <v0lksman> anyone know of any good OCR software for linux?
[18:27] <cemc> ActionParsnip, llutz: it's installed
[18:27] <ActionParsnip> !inf xsensors
[18:27] <docmax> !inf ocr
[18:27] <llutz>  cemc configure lm-sensors (sensors-detect)
[18:27] <BlouBlou> try !info
[18:28] <docmax> !info ocr
[18:28] <wickoo> grawity: Nice explanation! and by wrapper you mean I check useradd before call so that no one can pass uid = 0 ? right?
[18:28] <v0lksman> !info ocr
[18:28] <Pici> !msgthebot
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> cemc: then run:  sudo sensors-detect
[18:28] <ActionParsnip>
[18:28] <ActionParsnip>
[18:28] <ActionParsnip>
[18:28] <FloodBot3> ActionParsnip: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:28] <hickop_> Hi , when I maximize my terminal , last line is "blank" , is there a way to remove that line please ?
[18:28] <docmax> i need to print envelopes
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> i really hate firefox
[18:29] <cemc> llutz, ActionParsnip: Sorry, no sensors were detected. (sensors-detect)
[18:29] <Pici> docmax: I've heard good things about glabels
[18:29] <llutz> cemc: hardware too new. better luck next year :)
[18:29] <callnett> ActionParsnip: but how ? wich command?
[18:29] <grawity> wickoo: A little more limiting, maybe. An oneliner like this: exec useradd -m -g users "$1"; <-- that way the wrapper will be bullet-proof against various script kiddies.
[18:29] <docmax> Pici, thanks
[18:29] <grawity> wickoo: Of course, if you write a wrapper, then you need to add that, _not_ useradd itself, to sudoers.
[18:29] <ktwo> hi, any idea why pidgin 2.6.2 does not flash the items on the taskbar (e.g. when i get a new message) it just stays white

[18:32] <turlando> hello
[18:32] <Peregrino> grawity: But I don't order CDs since 8.04!
[18:33] <wickoo> grawity: I have a samba file server. Users store their files with windows client. It also has a apache server which serves static stored files. I have written some script for managing users on file server. I need to have some sort of web admin. And since I had apache I thought it might be good to use cgi instead of socket programming! But the whole security issue is still ahead ;)

[19:17] <tonii> can't copy dirs without -r, no?

[19:36] <a__> sebsebseb: ok\
[19:36] <webbb82> wheelz, so what els did you need help with
[19:36] <sebsebseb> a__:  You can go into pm or ubuntu bots  to  find out what factoids are and such
[19:36] <genii> ikonia: If you have /dev/sdb1 mounted to /media/sdb   and chown yadda:yadda /media/sdb   next boot it usually reverts the root of the drive

[19:37] <ikonia> genii: that shouldn't happen, as that permission if on the file system, you should only have a problem if you chown /dev/sdb1
[19:37] <webbb82> wheelz, its hard to find what you said if you dont put my name in
[19:37] <ikonia> genii: udev onlt controls device files

[19:44] <system404> peleg: the working week starts on a monday atll be why
[19:44] <peleg> "atll be why"?
[19:44] <sebsebseb> system404: I think that's a feature of most players?
[19:45] <pooka> came0: It doesn't change any file. What you're doing is changing the environment of your shell - the set of variables in the shell. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable
[19:45] <system404> sebsebseb: i cant find it in amarok
[19:45] <TheJesus> a__: so chown -R user:user /File , guess you tried that
[19:45] <cordor> dios_mio: ubuntuzilla, update to 9.10 won't solve the problem seems ubuntu upgrade every 1/2 year while firefox has new release every month
[19:45] <sebsebseb> system404: It's there in Banshee for example
[19:46] <came0> pooka:  thanks1
[19:46] <a__> TheJesus: I used chown user:user hR /file
[19:46] <Mikel> good afternoon
[19:46] <sebsebseb> system404: I never really understood what the big deal is with Amarok and I have used  Desktop GNU/Linux since 2004
[19:46] <cordor> help, i update-rc.d -f foo remove, but foo keeps comming back. how do i prevent a service from autostart?
[19:46] <system404> sebsebseb: my pc connected to my tv which is connected to my surround sound system which has awsome base but amarok seems to have poor base on my music so needs equaliser to tweak it a little guns n roses so much better with base lmao is there any all round apps
[19:46] <firdau5> good evening
[19:47] <Mikel> i was wondering how you get a "tar.bz2" file to installsomething in the package manager...
[19:47] <system404> sebsebseb: amarok is awsome
[19:47] <system404> sebsebseb: also it looks amazing
[19:47] <sebsebseb> system404: Exaile is  like Amarok also, but for Gnome and that
[19:47] <system404> sebsebseb: apart from the whole equaliser thing
[19:47] <system404> sebsebseb: amarok is gnome
[19:48] <sebsebseb> system404: No Amarok is a KDE app, that can also be run inside Gnome
[19:48] <Mikel> I'm trying to find an eay way to install "programs" that are tar.bz2 files... but got no answers in Ubuntu forums that assisted me
[19:48] <bazhang> Mikel, which program
[19:48] <TheJesus> a__: odd should work =/ can't help anymore, just a gerneal linux mystery
[19:48] <system404> sebsebseb: aww i see well i use it in gnome lol so do you know of any ways for me to fiddle with my settings to up the base
[19:48] <grawity> Mikel: .tar.bz2 usually contains compressed source code. You'll have to open Terminal, unpack the file (tar xf foo.tar.bz2), read the file named "README"
[19:48] <Mikel> well, the example i gave was Cinelerra, but there are others
[19:49] <sebsebseb> system404: no, but if you try alternatives :)  Banshee, Exaile, etc,  I expect you can get the feature that you want
[19:49] <system404> sebsebseb:  true but i love amarok sooo much really not wanting to leave it behind but i guess your right needs must and that
[19:49] <sebsebseb> system404: Also since Amarok is really a KDE app, and probably most people in here don't use it,  maybe you should ask in #kubuntu
[19:49] <Mikel> i am not sure that if I am looking for a program on sourceforge... but it's not in the package manager already... how to get it installed
[19:50] <sebsebseb> !love > system404
[19:50] <talldave> I cannot write to external usb drive i do not have permission. All that has changed on my system is that i have added a new user. I have tried creating a user group and chown the mount piont, but no joy, please help
[19:50] <system404> sebsebseb: cool ill try kubuntu then if no joy try alternative apps cheers seb
[19:50] <joseantoniordlmc> WhoIs TheJesus
[19:50] <sebsebseb> system404: yes the channel, not the actsaul Kubuntu software
[19:50] <dementor> hy all ,how can y enable voice/video in pidgin?
[19:50] <sebsebseb> system404: that's a good way to do things, run a few KDE apps in Gnome,  I do that :)
[19:50] <cordor> talldave: was it automount?
[19:50] <system404> sebsebseb:  i know lol
[19:50] <module000> talldave: can't write or can't mount? if you can't write, make sure you are a UID that coincides with the permissions on your drive
[19:50]  * TheJesus he is amazing
[19:50] <jrib> talldave: what filesystem?
[19:51] <chess_player> hello
[19:51] <sebsebseb> system404: np gl
[19:51] <pooka> Mikel: .tar.bz2 means a bzip2-compressed 'tar' archive. You can extract the contents using something like tar --bzip2 -xf myfile.tar.bz2 (have a look at the tar manpage using 'man tar'). It's probably source code; if so, there'll probably be a README or INSTALL file (or both) that describe what you might want to do next.
[19:52] <Mikel> " Mikel: .tar.bz2 usually contains compressed source code. You'll have to open Terminal, unpack the file (tar xf foo.tar.bz2), read the file named "README"" That's what I tried to get those on "ubuntu forums" to do... but theyclosed the forum l forum thread

[19:53] <bazhang> joseantoniordlmc, that is not appropriate for here

[19:54] <kaeser> I am looking for a monochromatic(black and white) laser printer. Where I can look for it to be compatible with gnu/linux?>
[19:54] <Mikel> anyone know how I can get a way to install those Bz2files?
[19:54] <grawity> Mikel: Well, do what "README" said.
[19:55] <Mikel> well, i did.
[19:55] <Mikel> didn't install
[19:55] <IdleOne> !compile | Mikel
[19:55] <Mikel> i had someone on ubuntu forums give me an addy to get the repoz addy
[19:55] <Zzeiss> kaeser: look in http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/Printing-HOWTO/printers.html
[19:56] <grawity> Mikel: Also, explain what do you mean by "addy" and "repoz".
[19:56] <talldave> module000: I can mount and read, its only been a problem since i added a new user account

[19:56] <Mikel> addy... short for the address to get the repository listing installer
[19:57] <bazhang> Mikel, that is a deb
[19:57] <talldave> jrib: its an ext3 file system
[19:57] <Mikel> my problem is that if I use a program from sourcforge, on ubuntu... it may not install, since they put quite a few "bz2 files there
[19:58] <bazhang> Mikel, I just gave you a link on how to install cinelerra from a .deb
[19:58] <Mikel> needless to say, I have cinlerra. but need advice on trying to get other bz2 files to install
[19:58] <bazhang> Mikel, such as?
[19:58] <Mikel> at one point, VLC, the linux version... SAM3 broadcaster, etc.
[19:58] <Zzeiss> Mikel: ahhh... you may need to install bunzip2.  (and yes, I hate that too.  I personally won't put up anything other than a .gz and I rag on other project members who like .bz and bz2)
[19:58] <IdleOne> Mikel: you don't install bz2 files. you compile the source code that is contained in the bz2. please follow the link ubottu gave you about compiling
[19:59] <bazhang> Mikel, vlc is in the ubuntu repos
[19:59] <IdleOne> Mikel: btw sam3 does not work on linux
[19:59] <Mikel> yes, it is now
[19:59] <bazhang> Mikel, any others
[19:59] <Mikel> but when i first got converted a few years ago, it was not, that i was aware of... and used it in windows
[19:59] <mlissner> Hi, I can't get banshee to play m4a files. I have gstreamer-bad-multiverse installed, but still nothing. Any thoughts?
[20:00] <jess^> mlissner: is alsamixer muted? ;)
[20:00] <bazhang> Mikel, any others now
[20:00] <Mikel> thank god i didn't use it in linux
[20:00] <mlissner> jess^: Ummm...no, banshee is throwing an error. Good theory though.
[20:00] <Mikel> i still have 1/2 windows and 1/2 ubuntu
[20:00] <jess^> mlissner: it's always worked for me. ;) what error?
[20:01] <Mikel> can't think of the others, off hand... but do have another general question
[20:01] <mlissner> jess^: It puts a big gray X next to the song, and says there's no codec. It tries searching for a codec, but naturally, it fails.
[20:01] <jess^> hm
[20:01] <Mikel> on one of my programs in windows... i notice the "speed" of scrolling is much faster in windows, than in ubuntu 9.04... why?
[20:01] <IdleOne> !w32codecs
[20:02] <bazhang> Mikel, which program
[20:02] <jess^> mlissner: after you installed the package, did ldconfig run?
[20:02] <Mikel> how different is that from the ubuntu that is for a/v writing?
[20:02] <mlissner> jess^: ldcon-what?
[20:02] <Mikel> Adobe audition
[20:02] <jess^> mlissner: as root, run 'ldconfig' and then restart banshee and see if the damn thing works
[20:02] <bazhang> Mikel, dont think adobe has a linux version of that
[20:03] <Mikel> i use it in linux... all the time
[20:03] <jess^> god i'm tired.
[20:03] <Mikel> i just cannot see all of the buttons
[20:03] <IdleOne> jess^: go take a nap :)
[20:03] <bazhang> Mikel, via wine?
[20:03] <Mikel> yes
[20:03] <jess^> IdleOne: i'm at work for another...two hours?
[20:03] <jess^> IdleOne: i have not slept since 10/15/09 10:00am. i'm being kept animate by monster and no-doz.
[20:03] <bazhang> check the appdb Mikel help in #winehq
[20:04] <mlissner> jess^: No dice. Same errors.
[20:04] <Mikel> was done... since i was one of thier testers
[20:04] <jess^> hm
[20:04] <IdleOne> mlissner: http://www.medibuntu.org and install w32codecs
[20:04] <Mikel> i said 1.5 works... 2.0 did not
[20:04] <j0nr> hey all...fresh install of jaunty and i have no ethernet...I can't remember how to fix that :/
[20:04] <bazhang> Mikel, that has nothing to do with ubuntu
[20:04] <arvind_khadri> hi, i have an issue here, what happens is that i receive mail only when mail is being CC'ed to a different inbox.like the mail is not being delivered to evolution, until its cc'ed.
[20:04] <jess^> mlissner: hm. thinking.
[20:04] <bazhang> j0nr, ifconfig has eth0 ?
[20:05] <Mikel> i don't understand... i use it in ubuntu... but it has nothing to do with ubuntu?
[20:05] <j0nr> bazhang: no, just lo
[20:05] <jess^> mlissner: stupid question: these m4a files aren't protected are they?
[20:05] <grawity> jess^: They'd have the .m4p extension, then.
[20:05] <mlissner> jess^: Nah - I thought of that too. I made them myself (foolishly)
[20:05] <bazhang> J0nr what does lspci show as the device name
[20:05] <Mikel> i was thinking that somehow, ubuntu might have been slowed by wine?
[20:06] <jess^> grawity: right you are. again, sleep dep
[20:06] <jess^> lol
[20:06] <IdleOne> Mikel: if you are using a program with wine then ubuntu has nothing to do with it
[20:06] <IdleOne> Mikel: #winehq will hopefully be more help.
[20:06] <Mikel> ok, so the 2 are paralell programs, totally independant of each other.
[20:07] <kernel_panic> y0
[20:07] <j0nr> bazhang: i cant see a network device in lspci other than the wireless one i think
[20:07] <bazhang> j0nr, please paste.ubuntu.com with the output of lspci
[20:08] <j0nr> hmm, not easy as the pc has not network connection bazhang
[20:08] <toefur> how do i find my sound devices?
[20:08] <unknown1x> ouch
[20:08] <firdau5> toe
[20:09] <firdau5> toefur, whats your problem?
[20:09] <toefur> im trying to get my sound to work in mplayer
[20:09] <mgmuscari1> this is driving me crazy - if i paste something as a floating layer in gimp, how do i move back to the layer underneath to work on that?
[20:09] <bazhang> j0nr, right, what about ethernet devices then (just a single line here)
[20:10] <j0nr> bazhang: no mention of ethernet devices in lspci
[20:10] <mgmuscari1> in photoshop one would just click on the desired layer... no dice here, unless i anchor the layer, but that seems to merge it
[20:10] <Lockerz_Invites> someone wants an invite for www.lockerz.com ?
[20:10] <bazhang> Lockerz_Invites, wrong channel please stop
[20:10] <trism> mgmuscari1: you need to convert the floating layer to a real layer, then you can merge it
[20:10] <genii> Lockerz_Invites: No ads here
[20:10] <trism> mgmuscari1: right click on the layer and do new layer
[20:10] <unknown1x> Is any one here familiar with Wubi Installations?
[20:11] <Mikel> for a second... i thought i was back in the old "yahoo" chats... with the spammers

[20:11] <unknown1x> lol
[20:11] <mgmuscari1> trism: thanks
[20:11] <sebsebseb> unknown1x: Probably a good idea to avoide Wubi really, because sometimes  it goes rather wrong on people,  also in the long run a partitioned install is better
[20:11] <bazhang> unknown1x, best to just ask your question

[20:17] <bazhang> j0nr, is this a dual boot
[20:18] <Len_> Only root can change group?
[20:18] <j0nr> nope, fresh install using whole disk bazhang
[20:18] <jack87> it is all grayed out for devices i have added the usb filters to the list
[20:18] <flanders> Len_: You mean for a folder/file permission?
[20:18] <j0nr> bazhang: it worked before i reinstalled, asnd i have reinstalled many times
[20:18] <bazhang> j0nr, very strange; does a new user or the live cd get the ethernet

[20:19] <jack87> anyone else know how to mount usb devices to virtual box guest os
[20:19] <Len_> flanders: chang group of folder, no permision
[20:19] <bazhang> jack87, which version of virtualbox
[20:19] <flanders> Len_: I don't understand. What do you mean "change group"?
[20:19] <jack87> bazhang: 3.0 closed source
[20:20] <haroelcabo> hi ! What does "[sda]  Add. Sense: Unrecovered read error" mead ?
[20:20] <j0nr> bazhang: ill try a live cd
[20:20] <jack87> bazhang: 3.0.8 closed source to be exact
[20:20] <flanders> So does anyone know how to get Autofs to work in Ubuntu? (It works fine for me in openSUSE.)
[20:20] <bazhang> jack87, you may also wish to post a question in #vbox while you wait for an answer here
[20:21] <Len_> flanders: chgrp. When you say permission I think of chmod
[20:21] <haroelcabo> s/mead/mean/
[20:21] <ortsvorsteher> !autofs | flanders
[20:21] <flanders> Len_: That's what I meant. Whoever is the owner of the file/folder can chgrp.
[20:21] <toefur> ugh is there a good x264 driver that is free and that utilizies both cpu cores?
[20:21] <jack87> good call thanks bazhang
[20:21] <flanders> ortsvorsteher: I've already tried there, but no luck.
[20:22] <chx> how can i manually trigger automount? the device was attached at boot time and i just want to mount now w
[20:22] <bazhang> jack87, I would make sure you have the guest additions and kernel headers installed as well
[20:22] <toefur> i got the sound to work... but supposedly my comp isnt powerful enough to watch movies
[20:22] <ortsvorsteher> flanders:  i didn't use id, so i have no experience... only that link :(
[20:22] <flanders> ortsvorsteher: no problem, but thanks.
[20:22] <ortsvorsteher> :)
[20:23] <jack87> bazhang: i do have guest edition installed as for kernel headers how would i install thenm
[20:23] <flanders> ortsvorsteher: It's strange because it works on openSUSE, without requiring anything special.
[20:23] <Len_> flanders: strange. I got a folder here with my user as owner/group and i cant change its grp
[20:23] <ortsvorsteher> flanders: did you read the man page? is there any?
[20:23] <flanders> ortsvorsteher: But on both of my Ubuntu computers, it does not work. Manually mounting CIFS works fine, but not with Autofs (automatically.)
[20:23] <Len_> flanders: 755 chmod
[20:23] <flanders> ortsvorsteher: Yes, but it does not tell me anything I didn't try.
[20:24] <ortsvorsteher> flanders: strange...
[20:24] <flanders> Len_: You are the owner and typing "chgrp GROUPNAME FOLDERNAME" doesn't work?
[20:25] <ortsvorsteher> flanders: you use it to automount your usb drives?
[20:26] <flanders> ortsvorsteher: No, to mount a CIFS network share.
[20:26] <Len_> flanders: yes, i'd take u a shot but I dont know to do that on terminal only linux
[20:26] <ortsvorsteher> flanders, ah, okay...
[20:26] <flanders> ortsvorsteher: If I use the fstab, I can connect to the CIFS share, no problems. But I want to use autofs (for a few reasons), but on Ubuntu it just doesn't work / do anything.
[20:27] <flanders> Len_: what do you mean?
[20:27] <ortsvorsteher> flanders: i only found something about autofs and ubuntu for usb drives
