[02:16] <Eroick> This is wierd, I did a dist-upgrade from a Wubi install without realizing the problem with it. It resulted in an error that looked like "PCI: Cannot allocate resource region ..." once it got past grub. So I cut my losses and uninstalled Wubi and went to install ubuntu for real. I tried to use Unetbootin but when it got past grub, I got the same "PCI: Cannot allocate resource region" error......
[02:17] <Eroick> ...What does this error mean? Im worried that I will install ubuntu and the error will persist.
[02:17] <jengc0il> Stormx2: cannot be loaded and dont have a access
[02:17] <Malachi> Aztec007: I'm sorry, glxinfo | grep direct
[02:17] <brooksbp> if i have an application binded to port 11211... will the port be open?
[02:17] <Malachi> Aztec007: A bit tired, forgive me. :\
[02:17] <Malachi> brooksbp: No.
[02:17] <fwaokda> AzTec_Warrior1
[02:17] <Stormx2> jengc0il, open a terminal. gksu time-admin. What does that give, same error?
[02:17] <Aztec007> Malachi; dont worry about, you're being more than helpful :)
[02:18] <Malachi> brooksbp: That depends on two things: Your router (completely independent of the operating system) and the firewall (Ubuntu can solve this problem.)
[02:18] <brooksbp> Malachi: how do I make it open... I can't even telnet to my server... even though it's on a static ip address
[02:18] <Aztec007> Malachi: it said NO
[02:18] <Eroick> It seems that most people that have this problem still have their computer boot. Mine freezes at that error.
[02:19] <Malachi> brooksbp: Applications > Add/Remove  and search for Firestarter
[02:19] <brooksbp> Malachi: server ed
[02:19] <Malachi> Aztec007: Then you don't have the right driver for your card.
[02:19] <Aztec007> Malachi: it also said that if you want to find out why, to set LIBGL_DEBUG = verbose
[02:19] <Malachi> brooksbp: Oh. Hm.
[02:19] <Malachi> brooksbp: One moment.
[02:19] <Old_Gregg> How do I start the Gnome Control Center?
[02:19] <geonerd> need help with wireless when someone gets a chance thx
[02:19] <Malachi> Aztec007: Don't worry about that.
[02:19] <brooksbp> Malachi: didn't install a firewall anyways
[02:20] <Aztec007> Malachi: so, dont set it to verbose?
[02:20] <Malachi> Aztec007: Go to System > Administration > Restricted Driver Manager
[02:20] <Malachi> brooksbp: Firetables is preinstalled.
[02:20] <Stormx2> brooksbp: Ubuntu comes with ipfilters that default to no open ports.
[02:20] <Aztec007> Malachi: ok...
[02:20] <Malachi> Aztec007: No.
[02:20] <Stormx2> iptables*
[02:20] <Stormx2> rather.
[02:20] <Malachi> Firetables? iptables.
[02:20] <sam_> hi how do I get sound on ubuntu?
[02:20] <Malachi> Thanks, Stormx2
[02:20] <Malachi> Man, I need sleep.
[02:20] <Old_Gregg> Simple question:  How do I load the Gnome Control Center?
[02:21] <Stormx2> Old_Gregg, lemme see, hold up
[02:21] <Malachi> Aztec007: What options are there?
[02:21] <Old_Gregg> stormx2: thanks!
[02:21] <Dr_willis> Old_Gregg,  try 'gnome-c<tab>'  from a terminal?
[02:21] <Malachi> brooksbp: What ports need opening?
[02:21] <brooksbp> Stormx2: How can I open up a port then... it looks like even though I have a socket listening it wont read anything cause the port isn't publicly accessable
[02:21] <Stormx2> Old_Gregg: gnome-control-center
[02:21] <Aztec007> Malachi: just one option for my Modem
[02:21] <Dr_willis> Gotta love gnomes rather verbose-names-method-of-naming-things
[02:21] <Ttech> Hi, how cam I get my Wifi icon on my Dell laptop to work?
[02:22] <Malachi> Aztec007: Have you installed all updates?
[02:22] <Aztec007> Malachi: its giving me an option to enable it
[02:22] <Ttech> Dr_willis, heh
[02:22] <brooksbp> Malachi: I have a socket listening to port 11211... the machine has a static ip address... but a client can't connect to the port
[02:22] <Stormx2> brooksbp: If you're running graphically, firestarter is the way to go, as someone has already suggested to you.
[02:22] <Malachi> brooksbp: I'm actually unfamiliar with iptables. The only way I know to open a port is Firestarter.
[02:22] <brooksbp> Stormx2: server

[02:23] <Peddy> can someone help me? In a torrent, is it the more you upload, the faster you get it? (like if I make the cap higher)
[02:23] <Malachi> Peddy: No.
[02:23] <Peddy> the upload cap
[02:23] <Peddy> Malachi:thanks
[02:23] <Malachi> Peddy: But this isn't a torrent channel.
[02:23] <Old_Gregg> stormx2:  No go on that.  "command not found"
[02:23] <Aztec007> Malachi: here's what happened, the other night I did a whole bunch of updates from synaptic not really knowing what I was doing.  *Blush*
[02:23] <Peddy> mmmmkay sorry
[02:23] <Stormx2> Old_Gregg: sudo apt-get install gnome-command-center then.
[02:23] <Malachi> Aztec007: But that's fine. Updates are supposed to be that way. You just install them.
[02:23] <fwaokda> is there a setting in Gusty to disable my mouse touchpad while typing to avoid the touchpad picking up in another location while im typing?
[02:24] <Stormx2> jengc0il: Weird. You might have fouled up su somehow. Perhaps... reboot?
[02:24] <Ttech> fwaokda,  probbably but it won't not be working without a restart
[02:24] <Stormx2> Can't believe I'm suggesting it, bleh.
[02:24] <Aztec007> Malachi: before I did those updates everything was working fine
[02:24] <fwaokda> Ttech, thats fine i dont mind restarting just wondering if it existed
[02:24] <geonerd> also, what can I do (efficiently) to be able to play iTunes files in Ubuntu (again, i am new...sorry for the dumb ?s)
[02:25] <Stormx2> geonerd: DRM'd?
[02:25] <Nyax> Hi, I'm having a problem.
[02:25] <Ttech> fwaokda, restaring Ubuntu?
[02:25] <Stormx2> !itunes | geonerd
[02:25] <ubotu> geonerd: itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[02:25] <Old_Gregg> Says I already have it
[02:25] <Old_Gregg> stormx2:  It says I already have it installed and that it's current
[02:25] <Ttech> Anyone?
[02:26] <Stormx2> Old_Gregg: What does dpkg -L gnome-control-center | grep bin say?
[02:26] <Eroick> This seems to be a problem with Acer computers like mine... The error is specific to the 386 revision of the kernel
[02:26] <Malachi> Aztec007: Go to System > Administration > Screens and Graphics
[02:26] <Eroick> any ways around that while installing gutsy?
[02:26] <Aztec007> Malachi: ok
[02:26] <Old_Gregg> a lot of stuff
[02:26] <Malachi> Aztec007: Hit the driver tab.
[02:26] <Nyax> Hey, half the time when I restart my computer instead of actually loading the OS, I get a screen full of short, horizontal lines.
[02:27] <Old_Gregg> aha
[02:27] <Aztec007> Malachi: done
[02:27] <Nyax> Any idea what would cause that?
[02:27] <Stormx2> Old_Gregg: got it?
[02:27] <RenatoSilva> verb3k_: I've GOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[02:27] <Nyax> Is restarting with the Ubuntu CD in the drive a bad thing?
[02:28] <geonerd> Stormx2: thx, i don't know what DRM means lol...was going to use Rhythmbox or banshee.  but do i have to do anything to the .m4p files so that they will play?
[02:28] <Old_Gregg> stormx2: Not sure exactly.  I went to gnome-sound-properties but I'm not sure that's the right place
[02:28] <eth01> nyax, not really.
[02:28] <verb__> RenatoSilva, good :)
[02:28] <Aztec007> Malachi: I'm gonna test the drivers one by one until it works
[02:29] <RenatoSilva> verb__:  now it's on the 2nd stage!
[02:29] <eth01> it depends if your bios sees it as a boot option automatically ;)
[02:29] <Aztec007> Malachi: I already tested one driver and it failed
[02:29] <Nyax> Hrm.
[02:29] <RenatoSilva> verb__: changing software channels
[02:29] <Nyax> Because I've installed Ubuntu three times now and every time it's died within 24 hours.
[02:29] <eth01> if it *does*, then you'd probably be best keepin' it out the drive, or telling the bios otherwise..
[02:29] <eth01> nyax, run a memtest?
[02:29] <Stormx2> geonerd: Unfortunately apple's iTunes uses something called DRM. It's a technology mandated by overzealous wealthy and technologically-impared label chairs. It means that those files are tied down specifically to your copy of iTunes, and your iPod if you have one.
[02:30] <eth01> !tell Nyax about memtest
[02:30] <eth01> ops
[02:30] <eth01> !memtest

[02:30] <RenatoSilva> verb__: but I've discovered I cant' upgrade from CD!!!!
[02:30] <Stormx2> geonerd: There are illegal ways to strip the DRM, which I won't recommend as doing illegal things is naughty. You can also burn CDs and re-rip them.

[02:31] <geonerd> Stormx2: is the audio quality ok after the CDs are re-ripped?
[02:31] <verb__> LjL, I see
[02:32] <Stormx2> geonerd: It'll be worse, because it's been transcoded.
[02:32] <Nyax> Will re-installing Ubuntu multiple times cause it to partition my HD to hell?
[02:32] <DaveBloor> Hello everyone
[02:32] <Nyax> Or does it write over previous Ubuntu partitions?
[02:33] <verb__> LjL, I've discovered it, it's  jp  :D
[02:33] <LjL> Nyax: it depends on what you tell it to do, of course. the installer has options
[02:33] <Stormx2> geonerd, depends what your audio setup is like. I notice the difference, others don't.

[02:41] <LjL> Aztec007, RaDa-X: I've told you a number of times to please speak *English* here. use #ubuntu-es for help in spanish.
[02:41] <Ttech> Any help?
[02:42] <Stormx2> LjL: Can you do something about RenatoSilva? When I direct an ubuntu factoid at him, he does it back, ignores it, and repeats his question.
[02:42] <Josh1> I have a question???????
[02:42] <LjL> !attitude | RenatoSilva
[02:42] <ubotu> RenatoSilva: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[02:42] <Malachai> Aztec007: It's okay if the Radeon driver looked fuzzy. Did you have the option to keep changes?
[02:42] <RenatoSilva> Stormx2: if you don't know the answer, don't try to tell it can't be asked
[02:42] <UbunNoob> anyone interested in helping me try and connect my linux box to the net?
[02:42] <Aztec007> Malachai: yes I did have that option I just didnt keep it
[02:42] <Malachai> Aztec007: If you did, I believe that's your driver (based on the forums)
[02:42] <RenatoSilva> LjL: Stormx2: if you don't know the answer, don't try to tell it can't be asked
[02:42] <Josh1> I want to put a mirror of my ubuntu on my 2nd 20GB HD how do I do that?
[02:42] <RaDa-X> ubotu: You're a Hacker???
[02:42] <Stormx2> RenatoSilva: It can be asked. Just not so regularly, asking it so often doesn't help you, it just annoys people.
[02:42] <Malachai> Aztec007: Try keeping it. Then change your resolution.
[02:43] <Malachai> RaDa-X: He's a bot.
[02:43] <HardDisk> !bot | RaDa-X

[02:43] <RaDa-X> L0L
[02:43] <Aztec007> Malachai: Ok, I try and keep it
[02:43] <Josh1> My 1st HD is 160GB
[02:43] <fwaokda> anyone have the patch for flash-nonfree or rather a link to it ?
[02:43] <Malachai> Aztec007: After your keep it, change the resolution to whatever your screensize is.  Is this possible with software based RAID? Is fakeRAID the way to go?
[02:45] <Aztec007> RaDa-X: you keep that up and you'll be out of here, dont mess with Malachai
[02:45] <jadder> hey I have a tvcard, work with my ubuntu 7.10  I can plug consoles, but I can't watch tv, I have a vhs, to make some test, but say no signal
[02:45] <ctothej> actually, that's a raid 1 I want...
[02:45] <zzxc> Is there a method for creating an Ububtu live usb drive from a live cd image?  I got mount errors when attempting it manually with 7.10.
[02:45] <DaveBloor> Can anyone help me quickly with a permissions issue please?
[02:45] <pg> What is the "allow-hotplug" stanza in /etc/network/interfaces used for?
[02:45] <LjL> Aztec007: if you scroll up, you'll see rada-x is out of here already.
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> DaveBloor: just ask your question
[02:45] <Malachai> RaDa-X: I don't approve. What was that for, anyway?
[02:45] <Stormx2> DaveBloor: State your issue
[02:45] <Belkinze1> Hi, I have a problem with mounting my windows NTFS drive(separate drive). I've tried Ubuntu Community tutorials, but they don't work for me. Although I can see the drive on fdisk. I can't get it to mount
[02:45] <pg> ask | DaveBloor
[02:45]  * Josh1 wants to put a mirror image of my ubuntu 7.10 on a 2nd 20GB HD but my first HD is 160GB can that be done?
[02:45] <DaveBloor> I ave user directories in the /home
[02:45] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Have you tried ntfs-config?
[02:46] <LjL> Malachai: make sure the person you're trying to speak to is in the channel, before speaking to them :)
[02:46] <DaveBloor> They are all readable but not writeable
[02:46] <Eroick> any ideas for that PCI: Cannot allocate resource region error? It seems that it is the one kernel verson that causes it
[02:46] <scragar> Josh1: depends, run du to see if your using under 20GB of space first
[02:46] <Malachai> LjL: Oh. Didn't see him leave. Thanks.
[02:46] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Off course
[02:46] <Malachai> LjL: "leave"*
[02:46] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Does it give you an error.. or?
[02:46] <drkokoloko> Eroick: I have the same on ACER laptop, apparently some motherboard problem, or ACPI
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> DaveBloor: what are the names of the folders?
[02:47] <Malachai> Anyway, Aztec007: Did you change your resolution to the proper one?
[02:47] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Well, I set the it in the GUI options to enable read/write on all ntfs drives
[02:47] <Eroick> drkokoloko: its an acer problem
[02:47] <tehhehh> does dovecot require postfix to work?
[02:47] <Eroick> drkokoloko: some thinkpads seem to have it to. any workarounds?
[02:47] <DaveBloor> they are the names of the users, I only want the individual user to be able to browse/wtite to their folder if that makes sense!!
[02:48] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: it doesn't recognize my mount points , or maybe I'm just doing things improperly
[02:48] <Aztec007> Malachai: sorry dude the phone rang I stepped away
[02:48] <fwaokda> how long until the expected Hardy Release? is this something that is supposed to happen in weeks, months, "?
[02:48] <Malachi> Aztec007: No problem.
[02:48] <Malachi> fwaokda: April of 08.
[02:48] <robdig> fwaokda: in april
[02:48] <Flannel> DaveBloor: so remove read permission for others
[02:48] <fwaokda> k
[02:48] <scragar> DaveBloor: use chown to set ownership, then use chmod to set perms to only give owner perms
[02:48] <Malachi> fwaokda: That's what 8.04 means. 8th year, 4th month.
[02:48] <Aztec007> Malachi: trying it now, btw, are you Malachi or Malachai?
[02:48] <drkokoloko>  Eroick:Iam looking around and found MAYBE this http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/view.php?id=577
[02:48] <fwaokda> ahh k thanks
[02:49] <Malachi> Aztec007: Malachi. Only Malachai because I disconnected and my nick was still active here.
[02:49] <IndyGunFreak> DaveBloor: just set it to where only your user can use it.. right clcik/properties/permissions tab.
[02:49] <Eroick> drkokoloko: maybe lilo?
[02:49] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: If you run "mount" (no parameters) does it show up?
[02:49] <Aztec007> Malachi: oh ok, just asking cuz I copy and pasted Malachi:
[02:49] <UbunNoob> Anyone able to help me troubleshoot why my linux box is not connecting to the internet
[02:49] <DaveBloor> OK I will try, I am very new to linux so it is taking my time to get to grips with permissions etc !!!
[02:49] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Yes
[02:49] <drkokoloko> nope I had it before...
[02:49] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: What's its mountpoint?
[02:49] <Malachi> Aztec007: It's fine. Did you get your resolution straight when using the Radeon driver?
[02:50] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: wait, no.....=/
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: what type of connection?
[02:50] <Aztec007> Malachi: trying that right now.......
[02:50] <robdig> UbunNoob: wired or wireless
[02:50] <UbunNoob> wired
[02:50] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Could you make a pastebin of your /etc/fstab?
[02:50] <Flannel> DaveBloor: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: DSL?
[02:50] <kenan> is there a command that can turn off my restricted drivers while i am in recovery mode?
[02:50] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: I sure can, one sec
[02:50] <UbunNoob> I've tried using auto configuration
[02:50] <tony_math> Well, I tried upgrading to the latest version of the nvidia driver and now all my desktop settings are gone. Compiz will not work. No cube. Nothing. After 2 hours I've finally been able to get an acceptable display resolution to get back into the IRC channel. Anyone have a solution for this?
[02:50] <UbunNoob> static
[02:50] <UbunNoob> Indy:yes DSL
[02:51] <Stormx2> UbunNoob: Can you see your router?
[02:51] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: http://pastebin.ca/829372
[02:51] <UbunNoob> Storm: No
[02:51] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: I set the mount point as /media/windows
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: well thats probably your prob. can't you just use network tools, and plug in yuour IP address?
[02:52] <tehhehh> does anyone know if dovecot needs postfix to work as a mail server or does it need it to function as a mail server
[02:52] <Eroick> drkokoloko: what if we tried another kernel?
[02:52] <Aztec007> Malachi: ok here's the deal I selected Radeon(fglr) and I kept the settings but it didnt change the driver
[02:52] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Does the /media/windows directory exist?
[02:52] <UbunNoob> Indy: I tried that and it doesn't work
[02:52] <drkokoloko> i have it ALSO with MS win
[02:52] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: In Nautilus?
[02:52] <Stormx2> Yeah
[02:52] <MrPiracy> hello, anyone could point me to a tutorial on how to install AWN on ubuntu gutsy gibbon?
[02:52] <Flannel> tehhehh: define mail server
[02:52] <drkokoloko> even without having UBUNTU installed
[02:52] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: No
[02:52] <macabro22> Hello
[02:52] <Eroick> drkokoloko: through GRUB?
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: i take it you have a router
[02:53] <Stormx2> Create it. You need to have an empty directory to mount into.
[02:53] <tehhehh> i want to send recieve mail thats all i dont really need imap
[02:53] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: I wish it did, otherwise i wouldn't be here =/
[02:53] <Eroick> drkokoloko: can i msg you?
[02:53] <UbunNoob> Indy: I'm connected now with the same connection with my windows box
[02:53] <drkokoloko> i think it is ACPI / motherboard problem
[02:53] <drkokoloko> sure !!!
[02:53] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: from terminal: sudo mkdir /media/windows
[02:53] <Aztec007> Malachi: whats up
[02:53] <wy> Can I change the window system's PATH in ubuntu?
[02:53] <UbunNoob> Indy: going from the modem through a SMC switch
[02:53] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[02:53] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Then do a sudo mount -a
[02:53] <tony_math> When I click on SYSTEM --> PREFERENCES --> GL DESKTOP and check ENABLE GL DESKTOP. The settings don't stay. When I return to that screen, the check mark is gone.
[02:53] <macabro22> Ubuntu won't always automatically recognize and mount my external firewire HD. Can someone assist me?
[02:53] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: I've done that, it says it already exists
[02:54] <Stormx2> Hmm.
[02:54] <UbunNoob> Indy: I tried sudo ifconfig and input the ip address
[02:54] <kenan> Is there a command where I can disable my ATI graphics card while I am in recovery move? if there is, what is it?
[02:54] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: ls /media/windows - anything inside?
[02:54] <UbunNoob> doesn't work
[02:54] <Malachi> kenan: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:54] <Malachi> kenan: Set it to VESA
[02:54] <UbunNoob> when I reboot and look and look at the connection information everything has zeros
[02:55] <kenan> thanks
[02:55] <Malachi> Aztec007, don't worry about direct messaging.
[02:55] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: If the command returns nothing, it's empty.
[02:55] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Right, it's empty...
[02:55] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Eck. I can't see the problem o.O
[02:55] <Aztec007> Malachi: I must sound like a total linux virgin
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> doesn't make a whole lot of sense UbunNoob
[02:55] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: sudo mount -a <-- that do anything?
[02:55] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: =/
[02:55] <Belkinze1> um
[02:55] <DaveBloor> on my home directory the permissions are 0755 but I can't write to it
[02:56] <Malachi> Aztec007: Since you have an M6, we'll install a certain card.
[02:56] <UbunNoob> Indy: eth0 as of now has a wierd info in the ip address fe80::200:e2ff:fe33:95d9
[02:56] <Malachi> Aztec007: Go to System > Administration > Synaptics Package Manager
[02:56] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Failed to open ntfs attribute: No such file or directory
[02:56] <Belkinze1> Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': No such file or directory
[02:56] <Stormx2> DaveBloor: Are the owner and group set correctly?
[02:56] <Aztec007> Malachi: ok
[02:56] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Hmm.
[02:56] <UbunNoob> I know I'm a little frustrated to say the least
[02:56] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: ntfs-3g _is_ installed, right?
[02:56] <Eroick> drkokoloko: you've gotta msg me back...
[02:56] <MrPiracy> what's the best irc client for ubuntu? this GIMP is not so good ....
[02:56] <Malachi> Search for xorg-driver-fglrx
[02:56] <linxeh> UbunNoob: ipv6 ?
[02:56] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: are you sure its seeing your ethernet device?
[02:57] <Stormx2> MrPiracy: GIMP is a graphics editor, not an IRC client ;D
[02:57] <timandtom> MrPiracy: Try XChat
[02:57] <UbunNoob> Indy: I've even connected the modem directly to the linux box to no avail
[02:57] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Yes, NTFS-3g
[02:57] <Malachi> Aztec007: Search for xorg-driver-fglrx. Is it enabled?
[02:57] <MrPiracy> sorry i meant pidgin
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: that sounds like it might not have your ethernet device configured.
[02:57] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Double check that for me: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[02:57] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Wait, hold up. Just re-read the error message
[02:57] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 165 not upgraded.
[02:57] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Looks like /dev/sda1 isn't your ntfs partition.
[02:57] <Aztec007> Malachi: ok, now synaptic is not loading, tell you what: I'm gonna log out and log back in on my machine and see if that fixes it,
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: type this w/o quotes.. "/join #indygunfreak"
[02:58] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: One second, let me post fdisk -lu
[02:58] <Malachi> Aztec007: Okay.
[02:58] <Aztec007> Malachi: I'll be back
[02:59] <TheEagle> which is the best language to learn to program in
[02:59] <Stormx2> TheEagle: Depends what you're programming.
[02:59] <DaveBloor> Stormx2 Im not sure to be honest Im learning as I go, user and group are the name of the directory
[02:59] <nickrud> deja vu all over again
[02:59] <timandtom> What ports should I probably have my torrents run on in Ubuntu 7.10? Or does it even matter?
[02:59] <TheEagle> Stormx2: applications
[02:59] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: http://pastebin.ca/829379    /dev/sda1/ is the main NTFS drive for windows(it's physically separate), the other drive /dev/sdb/ is also NTFS but i'm not worrying too much about that(it's an additional HDD, with no OS on it, just backup)
[02:59] <Stormx2> DaveBloor: Yeah, but every directory has an owner and a group.
[02:59] <TheEagle> a sort of joke application
[03:00] <Ttech> How can  I  find a device light for Wifi and turn it on and off?
[03:00] <DaveBloor> The owner is dave the group is dave the directory is dave
[03:00] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: can we PM? I'm quite with troubleshooting
[03:00] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: Mighty odd. Mount can't find /dev/sda1, yet fdisk displays it perfectly.
[03:00] <dan_> I have a logitech webcam, that i want to be able to stream, i have got so far, but now everytime i reboot, my cam light is on, and if i unplug, and replug it in, it doesnt come up in dev/video0, how can i findout/stop whats using it?
[03:00] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: yep, very
[03:01] <Ttech> dan_ heh your farther then me. ;(
[03:01] <Stormx2> Belkinze1: You need to be identified to services to receive PMs on Freenode.
[03:01] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: okay, one sec
[03:01] <dan_> Ttech: lol, try http://naaa.de/uvc_streamer.htm
[03:02] <Malachi> Aztec007: Get Synaptic up?
[03:02] <Aztec007> Malachi: while I was loggin off, I realized it was in a different workspace
[03:02] <zephyrus17> Does anyone use Dell 1501 with the Ati Xpress 1150 card?
[03:02] <Malachi> Aztec007: Ah. ;)
[03:02] <GHOST> "/whoisdan
[03:02] <zephyrus17> What is the best way to install drivers? Envy?
[03:03] <Aztec007> Malachi: and yes I do have Xorgdriver fglrx
[03:03] <fwaokda> if i can't find AWN in the repos how would i go about getting it installed?
[03:03] <Malachi> zephyrus17: In Gutsy, no. Either the restricted drivers manager or System > Administration > Screens and Graphics
[03:03] <robdig> !envy | zephyrus17
[03:03] <ubotu> zephyrus17: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[03:03] <Malachi> Aztec007: Uninstall it.
[03:03] <Omlette> Download the AWnpackage from getdeb.net.
[03:03] <nickrud> zephyrus17, no, use   restricted-manager in a termnal
[03:03] <Aztec007> Malachi: oh ok
[03:03] <Malachi> Aztec007: But before you click apply....
[03:03] <Aztec007> Malachi: yes
[03:04] <Malachi> Install libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri
[03:04] <Malachi> Aztec007: And also xlibmesa-dri
[03:04] <zephyrus17> The problem is it's very confusing to install it. My D2 used to work full screen, then only windowed, and now, not at all.
[03:04] <tony_math> fwaokda: you need to add a couple more repositories to synaptic. They are: deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/syzygy42/ gutsy avant-window-navigator and deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/syzygy42/ gutsy avant-window-navigator
[03:04] <DaveBloor> Im off to bed, thanks for the help !!!!
[03:04] <zephyrus17> I don't really understand where the problem lies.
[03:05] <Aztec007> Malachi: I need to step away, an emergency just came up
[03:05] <fwaokda> tony_math, how do i add them?
[03:05] <Aztec007> Malachi: is there a way to save this dialog?
[03:05] <Malachi> Aztec007: Okay. Hope it goes alright.
[03:05] <macabro22> guys
[03:05]  * Pelo hopes for a good resolution for Aztec007 's emergency
[03:05] <Malachi> Copy and Paste into the text editor.
[03:05] <Malachi> Aztec007: Applications > Text Editor
[03:05] <Omlette> Aztec: Sometimes you can save it from your chat program, too.
[03:05] <Malachi> Aztec007: Applications > Accessories Text Editor
[03:06] <tony_math> fwaokda: open synaptic package manager. then select SETTINGS --> REPOSITORIES
[03:06] <Malachi> Omlette: Yeah, I'm saving logs through X-Chat now, and would like to know how to view them.
[03:06] <Aztec007> Pelo: thank you, I just got some bad news
[03:06] <macabro22> gutsy isn't recognizing/ automounting my  firewire external HD. How do I check whether it is there?
[03:06] <Pelo> macabro22, lsusb maybe
[03:06] <Ttech> Malachi, you don't know how to view them?
[03:06] <Malachi> Ttceh: Nope. O.o
[03:06] <macabro22> Pelo: it's a firewire device though
[03:06] <Pelo> macabro22, you might want to do a search in the forum for firewire  www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:06] <tony_math> fwaokda: Then under THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE click on the ADD button and add the repositories.
[03:07] <Pelo> macabro22, I don't know of a command for listing firewire devices specificaly I'm assuming it might be covered under lsusb
[03:07] <Malachi> macabro22: It shoud just pop up...
[03:07] <codeshah> hey guys, I'm trying to copy a file from my ubuntu to my windows sda2 ... how can I do this ?
[03:07] <Ttech> How can  I  find a device light for Wifi and turn it on and off?
[03:07] <Pelo> Ttech, come again ?
[03:07] <macabro22> Malachi: I know.. sometimes it does. It hasn't lately
[03:08] <romistrub> wahh
[03:08] <romistrub> the flash install isn't working for me
[03:08] <romistrub> hehe
[03:08] <Ttech> Pelo: its the shortest question I could come up with since I've asked here for 3 days!
[03:08] <Pelo> romistrub, it's not workgin for anyone
[03:08] <Malachi> !flashissues | romistrub
[03:08] <ubotu> romistrub: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[03:08] <Ttech> How can I find a device the Wifi Light and turn it on and off?
[03:08] <romistrub> ahh...
[03:08] <romistrub> kthx!
[03:08] <macabro22> Malachi: do you know how to list firewire devices?
[03:08] <Ttech> Pelo How can I find a device the Wifi Light and turn it on and off?
[03:09] <Pelo> Ttech, I haven't been around for the past 3 days,
[03:09] <Malachi> Nope, macabro22...
[03:09] <macabro22> ok, thanks
[03:09] <Ttech> LOL No probolem. Anyoen?
[03:09] <Pelo> Ttech, I think what you want is the network manager , in the top pannel, but I'm probabaly wrong
[03:10] <Ttech> Pelo: heh yeah, no the light is on my laptop. But it does not work now.  Winowos it did. But now it does not.
[03:10] <Pelo> Ttech, much better info in this one,
[03:10] <romistrub> so Malachi, what's the ETA on a fix for that? :P
[03:10] <robdig> macabro22: maybe sudo lshw -C disk
[03:11] <bulmer> Ttech-> does it have an on/off switch? look around your laptop, sometimes they are obscured
[03:11] <Malachi> romistrub: No idea. If you need flash now, there's a package you can download: http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=53648&stc=1&d=1198033466
[03:11] <Pelo> Ttech, so what you want is for the wifi indicator light on your laptop to turn on and off, , this is probably driver related, if the driver does not support it , it is unlikely you will get it to work with an extra scritp of something similar
[03:11] <dragonforce99> i am trying to run EVE online and teamspeak at the same time... but I get no sound. can anyone help me,?
[03:11] <Zephyr> Should I uninstall the Envy installation and install the Resricted one?
[03:11] <Old_Gregg> Hello again.  What is the ubuntu command that is similar to "format c:"?
[03:11] <dragonforce99> I am using 7.1
[03:12] <Ttech> bulmer, No, the light shows if hte wifi is on because the FN+f2 disabled or enabled Wifi, but the netowrk software with ubuntu does not show me anything.  It still thinks wifi is enabled. So I need the light because I can't find out a think.
[03:12] <Old_Gregg> I basically want to format the computer and completely remove ubuntu.
[03:12] <Pelo> Zephyr, we are not very found of installer scripts here, so my guess is you might want to proceed
[03:12] <macabro22> robdig: nope.. it isn't listed ={
[03:12] <Ttech> Pelo, I tried installing the widows drivers but no effect. Or maybe I did it wrong.
[03:12] <Zephyr> I see. Thanks.
[03:12] <dragonforce99> Old_Gregg: use another OS to do that
[03:12] <thor> Old_Gregg are you going to reinstall windows or just format the partition that linux is using?
[03:12] <ChuckFu> how do I fix this problem E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[03:12] <ChuckFu> E: Unable to lock the download directory
[03:12] <Old_Gregg> reinstall windows.
[03:13] <dragonforce99> Just reinstall windows Old_gregg
[03:13] <thor> Old_Gregg then when you start th einstall just tell windows to use the entire drive...
[03:13] <Ttech> Old_Gregg: format?
[03:13] <Pelo> Ttech, ndiswrapper is a bandaid solution, not all options of the driver will work,  your best bet would be to search in th forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:13] <Ttech> and reinstall.
[03:13] <Stormx2> Old_Gregg: How many hard drives do you have?
[03:13] <romistrub> Old_Gregg: you can format from the windows installer, no?
[03:13] <robdig> macabro22: too bad, probably means it doesn't know its a disk...have you looked through dmesg or syslog (/var/log/syslog)?
[03:13] <furthur> why go back to windows??
[03:13] <Old_Gregg> romistrub:  Not sure.
[03:13] <Ttech> Pelo: I did try that I used a tutorial, but it did not help.
[03:13] <Omlette> romistrub: yes, you can.
[03:13] <bulmer> Ttech-> what are you trying to do? activate your wifi?
[03:13] <Stormx2> The windows installer can and will blindly remove your ubuntu partitions ;D
[03:13] <Old_Gregg> Stormx2: just one.
[03:14] <macabro22> rodbig nope. What should I look for?
[03:14] <romistrub> Old_Gregg: Boot from the windows CD
[03:14] <Ttech> bulmer: No but if I hit those keys and the wifi is on , I do not know if the Wifi is on Or off the netowrk icon jus stays the same
[03:14] <Old_Gregg> stormx2:  I tried to run it from ubuntu, but it gave me an error.
[03:14] <tony_math> ChuckFu: Do you have another synaptic window open?
[03:14] <robdig> furthur: to raise stress and frustration levels?
[03:14] <Old_Gregg> romistrub:  That's what I thought
[03:14] <furthur> lol
[03:14] <Stormx2> Old_Gregg, run it from ubuntu? Eh? you need to boot the cd.
[03:14] <Old_Gregg> stormx2:  Yea, that's what I thought
[03:14] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: no success =/
[03:15] <robdig> macabro22: look for any errors related to firewire or your external drive
[03:15] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Can't do mount -a
[03:15] <Stormx2> Belkinze1, I'm completely out of ideas.
[03:15] <timandtom> When I use uTorrent, it makes my internet INSANELY slow(Yet, getting the same speeds/same number of connections on a Windows box affects me less). Any reason why that could be? Would changing what port I use fix it?(What port should I change it too then)
[03:15] <macabro22> robdig: let me pastebin for you... nothing seems wrong
[03:15] <romistrub> Old_Gregg: You going to XP or Vista?
[03:15] <Old_Gregg> xp
[03:15] <Stormx2> Belkinze1, if you change "ntfs-3g" to "ntfs" in fstab?
[03:15] <romistrub> okay good :P
[03:15] <ChuckFu> tony_math no
[03:15] <Pelo> timandtom, just lower your upload speed by 10 k
[03:15] <romistrub> I dual boot XP and Ubuntu, because I'm learning :P
[03:16] <macabro22> robdig: http://www.pastebin.ca/829389
[03:16] <timandtom> Pelo: How would that help?
[03:16] <Old_Gregg> romistrub: Vista is the devil.  I gave Linux a try, but just trying to run two programs (WoW and Ventrilo) seemed to be too much for it.  It took me 4 days just to get the video card working.  I don't have the time or patience for it anymore.
[03:16] <robdig> macabro22: looking
[03:16] <Omlette> romistrub: I've been using Ubuntu since april, and I still do that. :)
[03:16] <Ttech> Olg_Gregg: Wine, and Wow, works out of the box.
[03:16] <romistrub> Old_Gregg: I find that it's good to have that XP backup in case I need to do something mission critical, and I don't have the patience to get it working yet... it's a learning process :)
[03:16] <furthur> I dual boot but gonna clean install gutsy and scrap windows altogether... I havent used xp in ages
[03:16] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Nope, but i think we can narrow it done to a fstab problem =/
[03:17] <Old_Gregg> Thanks for all the help guys.  Good luck.
[03:17] <furthur> you can alwyas emulate windows..
[03:17] <romistrub> furthur: I will do that, too, once I get the hang of it
[03:17] <Pelo> timandtom, a small amount of upstream is required for overhead ,  if you have your upload speed set to high or even to unlimited,  your computer cannot effectively communicate with your isp and other server and it slows down everything else
[03:17] <macabro22> robdig: actually there ARE errors related to iee1394
[03:17] <Stormx2> Belkinze1, your fstab line is identical to mine
[03:17] <Pelo> timandtom, more or less
[03:17] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Oh
[03:17] <Nyax_> Hey, how important are the software updates when you first install Ubuntu?
[03:17] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Let me screenshot what Ntfs-3g says when i try to mount
[03:17] <Carzand> Hey, I'm new to linux, what partition type should I use to install with?
[03:17] <axjv> Does anyone know how to use mencoder or ffmpeg to convert from rmvb to avi?
[03:18] <scguy318> Carzand: ext3
[03:18] <furthur> Nyax : Some security fixes can be rather important
[03:18] <Carzand> Alright, thanks
[03:18] <Stormx2> Nyax_, important. they fix bugs, stability issues and security problems
[03:18] <tony_math> ChuckFu: is there a lock file in /var/lib/dpkg?
[03:18] <Nyax_> Okay
[03:18] <robdig> macabro22: yup, firewire is ieee1394...
[03:18] <furthur> Nyax : but I wouldent worry too much about it...
[03:18] <kromagnon> can anyone recommend a compatible webcam to use with ubuntu?
[03:18] <free1> on the top right hand corner of gnome what are those 3 little vertical bars?
[03:18] <Pelo> Nyax_, there have been quite a few updates since the release of 7.10,  you don'T need them to use gutsy but most of them are secutiy and you should do them eventualy,  but if you are too bussy atm they can wait
[03:18] <dragonforce99> what is the command to list all processes?
[03:18] <Ttech> So should I just give up?
[03:19] <furthur> dragonforce : top
[03:19] <romistrub> I'm assuming most people here have experience with compiz... I think they should add "effects themes" for increase productivity and what not.
[03:19] <timandtom> Pelo: Ah, makes sense. But my internet can handle more then what I'm using, and my Windows box runs torrents the same, yet loads pages in the browser faster
[03:19] <Nyax_> I'm not busy. It's just that every time I install them my computer crashes.
[03:19] <Pelo> Ttech, I would
[03:19] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: http://i11.tinypic.com/8714rnl.png
[03:19] <Stormx2> dragonforce99: ps, top, or gnome-system-monitor for a GUI
[03:19] <Ttech> :( ok
[03:19] <Pelo> timandtom, we are talking about the upload speed ,  did you follow the connection guide on the utorrent website ?
[03:20] <Pelo> Ttech, remain hopefull for a resolution in the future but don'T waste any time on it atm
[03:20] <ChuckFu> tony_math what is the command to unlock
[03:20] <macabro22> robdig: what do you read from those errors? It's not very informative to me. Do you know what to do?
[03:20] <Belkinze1> Stormx2: Out of the 1052 people in this room, know anyone else that might have the slighest clue to the remedy of my problem?
[03:20] <furthur> can you recap problem?
[03:20] <Stormx2> Belkinze1, most aren't here ;D
[03:21] <Belkinze1> furthur: were you taking to me?
[03:21] <robdig> macabro22: looking
[03:21] <Carzand> Alright, here goes
[03:21] <Pelo> Belkinze1,  it helps if you restarte your problem periodicaly,  and at different times on different days,  different crowds
[03:21] <timandtom> Pelo:Yeh, I get torrents working great on my Windows box. The thing is, I have a torrent using X amount of bandwidth on my Windows box, and my browsers load pages FAST. But on Linux, my torrents use the SAME amount of bandwidth, but my pages load HELLA slow
[03:21] <Stormx2> Belkinze1, the fact that ubuntu a) didn't pick up on windows being installed and b) didn't add it to fstab automatically shows that there is some problem with the partition or the partition table.
[03:21] <macabro22> robdig: thanks. Ah, the HD works alright when plugged via an USB cord
[03:22] <|ns|nR8> timandtom, cause your uploading more
[03:22] <RandyboY> Could anyone tell me why my SB Live sound card wount work in ubuntu? It worked in xubuntu... I have one 3,5mm jack in the card and two composite(red and white) in my amplifier in one cable.
[03:22] <dan_> My Computer tells me my cam is inuse, but it isnt, and this says it is inuse from bootup, how can i stop this? [if i unplug, and replug in, it then says it cannot be found]
[03:22] <Pelo> timandtom, does the problem go away when you turn off ut ?
[03:22] <tony_math> ChuckFu: There's not command that I know of to unlock. let me check and let you know what file you need to remove.
[03:23] <Stormx2> RandyboY, both xubuntu and ubuntu use the same sound drivers
[03:23] <Malachi> Randyboy: Have you looked at System > Preferences > Sound?
[03:23] <timandtom> Pelo: Yeh. I wouldn't be worried, except for it only slows me down on Linux, not Windows, THERES the problem.
[03:23] <xoqa> my system freezes after starting blender.. this thread is similar to my situation.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=177396  ..and i'm wondering if anyone knows of a similar situation.. ..currently, i'm removing blender and reinstalling... ...not sure what version i'm going to install... maybe a test or dev version? ..if that exist.
[03:23] <windsor510> timandtom: I have a situation where I'm using ndiswrapper instead of native drivers for my wireless card under linux (because they don't exist), and I notice a performance decrease in download / upload speed in linux.
[03:23] <kromagnon> can anyone recommend a compatible webcam to use with ubuntu?
[03:23] <Stormx2> !webcam | kromagnon
[03:23] <ubotu> kromagnon: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[03:23] <Malachi> timandtom: What app?
[03:23] <xoqa> not seeing another version
[03:23] <cvd> Why  everytime i logon in ubuntu i dont have internet conection until i write in the terminal sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0?
[03:23] <timandtom> Malachi: uTorrent, running in wine
[03:24] <Malachi> timandtom: Hm....
[03:24] <RandyboY> Stormx2, then its my brand new computer ubuntu doesnt like? Cause its the same card(picked it out of the xubuntu machine)
[03:24] <furthur> timandtom : try deluge ;)
[03:24] <timandtom> windsor510: AH! That MIGHT be it, that makes sense, although I think these are official drivers for my wireless. How would I check?
[03:24] <timandtom> furthur: Whuzzat and why?
[03:24] <Pelo> timandtom,  I'M running ut in ubuntu , and I have no problems, I actualy found I could get a higher upspead in ubuntu then on windows if you can beleive it,  try and use one of the default setting sfrom the  speed guide settings manager in the options menu, in ut, see if that works better for you,  also ,  don'T forget to enable encryption
[03:24] <RandyboY> Malachi, yes i have. And there are no errors. And i have turned all options up a bit.
[03:24] <Stormx2> RandyboY, could be a motherboard issue I suppose
[03:24] <kromagnon> Stormx2: and ubotu: thanks!
[03:24] <Malachi> Randyboy: Is it set on Alsa? Or your soundcard?
[03:25] <Stormx2> I can't help, I'm going to sleep
[03:25] <pacman2> If I have the sound driver I need in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/oss/via8233.ko and my sound isnt working
[03:25] <pacman2> what do I need to do?
[03:25] <Stormx2> !thanks | kromagnon
[03:25] <ubotu> kromagnon: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[03:25] <RoDoX> hi folks...once again i'm here to ask for some help. this time, its the neogeo/SNES emulator that doesnt work. can anybody help me?
[03:25] <cvd> ?
[03:25] <windsor510> timandtom: not quite sure, I only found out after my wireless wasn't working and I found lots of posts documenting it.
[03:25] <|ns|nR8> RandyboY, do yo have a volume control  ?
[03:25] <RandyboY> |ns|nR8, not on the card itself, no
[03:25] <|ns|nR8> on the taskbar at top ?
[03:25] <windsor510> timandtom: try "dmesg | more" to see what the systems reports on bootup.
[03:25] <RandyboY> Malachi, seems to be a generic driver
[03:26] <robdig> macabro22: don't see anything that jumps out...perhaps someone here knows more about firewire and can assist
[03:26] <RandyboY> |ns|nR8, yes. And ive turned it up to 50%
[03:26] <Pelo> later folks
[03:26] <anonymousxxx> irc://irc.abjects.net/045
[03:26] <windsor510> cya
[03:26] <|ns|nR8> RandyboY, i have one of those cards, this may sound weird but i had to change what plug i plugged the line out into
[03:26] <|ns|nR8> windows uses one line out on me sound card and ubuntu uses another
[03:26] <wh0anur> hiiiiiiiiiii
[03:26] <timandtom> windsor510: Um... what does "dmesg | more" mean, and how do I do it? New to linux, haha
[03:27] <RandyboY> |ns|nR8, ive tried all the holes :-)
[03:27] <macabro22> robdig: thanks man... I will research some more
[03:27] <RoDoX> someone...
[03:27] <robdig> macabro22: sorry couldn't help resolve it
[03:27] <cvd> dont know?
[03:27] <macabro22> robdig: no problem man. I will find it sooner or later
[03:30] <windsor510> timandtom: you'll have to have access to a terminal, aka a shell. "dmesg | more" is a command you'll have to type in to the terminal (it's like a DOS window, in windows).
[03:30] <windsor510> timandtom: you should see the terminal application somewhere in ubuntu's 'start menu'.
[03:30] <TheEagle> is it possible to eject the cd rom drive of a pc with just their ip address?
[03:31] <timandtom> windsor510: What do I look for after i type that?
[03:31] <RoDoX> how can i remove a tar.gz/tar.bz2 package that was manually installed?
[03:31] <kromagnon> has anyone used the "Logitech Quickcam Chat" successfully with Ubuntu 7.04?
[03:31] <mortal1> hello all
[03:32] <ohsnap> hi :]
[03:32] <kromagnon> hello
[03:32] <mortal1> anyone here know what would cause a cpu fan to run constantly, even when the pc is switched completely off?
[03:33] <mortal1> I think it's either the mb or the power supply
[03:33] <timandtom> mortal1: Plugged in wrong, or not actually off?
[03:33] <Cpudan80> mortal1: Something is feeding it power 24x7
[03:33] <|ns|nR8> sounds like its going into standby and not switching off
[03:33] <Cpudan80> Are you sure it is plugged in the correct way?
[03:33] <windsor510> timandtom: if you're new to linux, you will probably not be able to glean too much information from the output, but basically you will see a list of all the hardware being detected, and usually your network interfaces will be given names like 'eth0' 'wlan0'. Keep an eye out for that.
[03:33] <robdig> mortal1: or bad temperature sensor
[03:34] <timandtom> windsor510: Ah, well, theres nothing like that in here
[03:34] <mortal1> well, this just started happening on a 10 year old computer
[03:34] <mortal1> that I haven't messed with hardware wise in quite a while
[03:34] <timandtom> windsor510:Scratch that, theres a more button, haha, sorry
[03:34] <windsor510> timandtom: I'd try to figure out what kind of network interface you have (get your PC's specs, or open it up and look), and then reference the hardware's chipset against some of the 'known supported' lists that are available online.
[03:34] <kromagnon> possible bad mem
[03:35] <windsor510> timandtom: oh, yeah hit the space bar to scroll down =)
[03:35] <kromagnon> has anyone used the "Logitech Quickcam Chat" webcam successfully with Ubuntu 7.04?

[03:37] <sam_> im on adobe flash player site
[03:37] <suweid> heh, seems like every other question is about flash
[03:37] <sam_> just copy paste the answer
[03:37] <windsor510> timandtom: sounds like it. looks like a hard wired connection (not wireless).
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> suweid: just trigger the bot
[03:38] <timandtom> windsor510: Ah, ok, ill keep looking
[03:38] <marcioapf> i have a mp3-player but i just can't write to it: every time it mounts as read-only! I found some stuff about this at http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/usb-flash-drive-pen-drive-mounts-read-only-508524/, but the solution requires me to format it. Can anybody help me with that?
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: What format does the player show up as?
[03:38] <windsor510> timandtom: are you trying to use a wireless adapter?
[03:39] <|ns|nR8> marcioapf, given the correct mount command it will let you write aswell
[03:39] <timandtom> windsor510: Yup
[03:39] <xoqa> grr
[03:39] <xoqa> can someone help me?
[03:39] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, what do you mean?
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: SOme of the ipods have been a problem, but the generics work fine
[03:39] <xoqa> ~$ sudo aticonfig --initial

[03:40] <xoqa> blender freezes my computer when starting
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: THe plaer should show up as a generic drive?
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> xoqa: Please do not paste in the channel
[03:41] <xoqa> and i figure it's the graphics card since grid wars runs extremely on this computer. which it shouldn't because this is a 1.7+mhz processor and it ran fine once on another installation of ubuntu on this computer
[03:41] <windsor510> timandtom: you might want to familiarize yourself with the 'ifconfig' command, it will list the interfaces that your system knows about.
[03:41] <EeeKay> I am in the hunt for music files. i dont want to use a bit torrent. and p2p seems to be coded for windows.. so any other suggestions?
[03:42] <sam_> #ubuntu
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: If you type fdisk -l in a terminal with the player plugged in does it show up
[03:42] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, it shows as "Audio Player Music Player"
[03:42] <sundar> my ktorrent gets firewalled..i have enabled UPnP plugin but no port forwarding happens...downloads are crawling..any way of resolving the issue?
[03:42] <sam_> sadfasdfa
[03:42] <windsor510> timandtom: and iwconfig also, that will give extra information about wireless adapters. but if you know the chipset now, you should check out articles and see if people are having issues with that particular chipset.
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: Does gparted see it as well
[03:42] <|ns|nR8> sundar, manually set port forwarding
[03:42] <timandtom> windsor510: Ok, thanks

[03:42] <Ttech> Ok,  Ihave another question. :P   How do I make the Menu Icon (not the menu bar one) larger more like the windows start menu?
[03:42] <TheEagle> can you eject someone's cd tray remotely?
[03:43] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: you couls also post your fstab to the pastebin for reference
[03:43] <TheEagle> with a python scritp
[03:43] <EeeKay> i never said i wouldnt pay for it
[03:43] <Ttech> TheEagle, yeah
[03:43] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, shows as /dev/sdb1
[03:43] <sundar> how do i do it manually???
[03:43] <windsor510> timandtom: good luck!
[03:43] <Ttech> TheEagle, using windows. :P
[03:43] <TheEagle> remotely?
[03:43] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, on fdisk -l
[03:43] <sundar> i did rescan...no devices were found
[03:43] <Ttech> TheEagle, yeah
[03:43] <|ns|nR8> connect to your router sundar, what is your machine's LAN ip ?
[03:43] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, whats gparted?
[03:43] <TheEagle> without the other person knowing your going to do it?
[03:44] <jeff__> evening.  upgraded to ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon, now stuck with two printing systems, two printers entry in system menu.  which to uninstall?
[03:44] <timandtom> windsor510: :D Thanks! Btw, it's normal to have some error'd and dropped packets, right?
[03:44] <TheEagle> like my sister - if i wanted to randomly eject her cd tray?
[03:44] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: What system is shown for the partitions on it
[03:44] <windsor510> timandtom: on wireless, yea depending on the link quality
[03:44] <sundar> nR8 - I dont get you..
[03:44] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, sorry, i also dunno what is fstab
[03:44] <Dregz> anyone have experience with the closed x-fi drivers
[03:44] <Ttech> TheEagle, No, there cd tray would open. But I'm not one to give people hacks. As I don't like hacking. You plant it on someone computer and run it. :P
[03:44] <timandtom> windsor510: 85%, about 110k good packets, 4k bad
[03:44] <|ns|nR8> sundar, in your browser put iin http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[03:44] <|ns|nR8> anything happen
[03:44] <|ns|nR8> ?
[03:44] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: Does fdisk show anything for the system typw
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> e
[03:45] <windsor510> timandtom: nobody's perfect =)
[03:45] <timandtom> windsor510: Haha, ok, thanks, just wondering if that was insanely high or anything
[03:45] <TheEagle> Ttech - so your not going to tell me how to do it?
[03:45] <hayden> I have ubuntu 7.10 server installed atm, is there a way to install a bare-bones gui (without openoffice, games etc) ?
[03:46] <timandtom> TheEagle: I haven't been paying attention to what you've really been asking... But are you trying one of those things where the CD autoruns a program that ejects the CD?
[03:46] <TheEagle> hayden - you can install a gui and then uninstall the openoffice and games
[03:46] <TheEagle> timandtom
[03:46] <refa_imoet> server irc
[03:46] <TheEagle> i dont think so
[03:47] <timandtom> TheEagle: Ah, k, my mistake. I see a lot of people around the internet who try that
[03:47] <TheEagle> i want to be able to sit at my computer here - and type some code or press a few buttons and for my sisters cd drive to eject
[03:47] <hayden> TheEagle: ok thanks
[03:47] <sundar> nR8 - got the router page..it says the local ip as <IP_ADDRESS> (thats router's i think) and starting ip on my dhcp server is <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:47] <Old_Gregg> I'm back.
[03:47] <windsor510> timandtom: you could always experiment with it (move the machine around), or read articles online - I'm no expert in that, but I'd say it's acceptable.
[03:47] <broken> Have a question, I got a few video clips on a ftp server for quick access, i am on my gentoo laptop and I was wondering is it possible to stream the video? Whenever i go to download it says (no video) and the stream doesn't start, I don't want to download to the laptop i'd prefer just to watch it stream, is this possible?
[03:47] <TheEagle> hayden - do you knwo how to do it?
[03:47] <Old_Gregg> Anyone know if there is a terminal command to copy files to a CD?
[03:47] <elkbuntu> TheEagle, please stop asking how to do exploits
[03:47] <jeff__> broken> ftp does not stream.  http would be a proper transport for streaming.
[03:47] <|ns|nR8> ok sundar login to the router, default username and password is prolly admin admin
[03:48] <hayden> TheEagle: Is there meta-packages for openoffice and games?
[03:48] <sam_> how do i know if i have a 32bit or 64 bit ubuntu?
[03:48] <broken> jeff__, hmm.. that sucks.
[03:48] <kalpik> sam_, uname -a
[03:48] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, that is what i got from fdisk: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49375/
[03:48] <|ns|nR8> find port forwarding, look in your bittorent clinet, see what ports it uses and forward those ports to your machines LAN i
[03:48] <|ns|nR8> ip
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: lol, well what iso did you download?
[03:48] <broken> jeff__, is ftp also slow?
[03:48] <jeff__> broken> let me rephrase that> ftp is not a proper transport for multimedia streaming.  it's a file transfer protocol.
[03:48] <TheEagle> im not sure - what id du is: run "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[03:48] <timandtom> windsor510: Ok, thanks for the help =]
[03:48] <sam_> um dont remember
[03:48] <TheEagle> thts a gnome
[03:48] <sam_> ill do what kalpik said though
[03:48] <TheEagle> if u want kde use kubuntu-desktop instead
[03:48] <TheEagle> and let it install
[03:48] <jeff__> broken> it is not the fastest transfer protocol indeed.  http is much better at fast streaming.
[03:48] <Old_Gregg> Is there a command in terminal to write files to a blank CD?
[03:48] <sundar> nR8 - i'll try it..and let you know
[03:49] <|ns|nR8> sundar, you might find an option in there to enable upnp
[03:49] <TheEagle> then use the package manager in the gui to uninstall office and the games
[03:49] <|ns|nR8> that might help also
[03:49] <broken> jeff__, alright thanks. I guess I'll have to set up a small server on it.
[03:49] <robdig> Old_Gregg: cdrecord?
[03:49] <TheEagle> hayden: did you get all that?
[03:49] <jeff__> broken> that should help :)
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: It is a one gig plaer with a fat16 partition...
[03:49] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, ok.
[03:49] <hayden> TheEagle: Yep, I already knew that. Was wondering if they had implemented a better server gui since I last used it.
[03:50] <TheEagle> i don't think so
[03:50] <Old_Gregg> robdig:  anything else on that command?  Like cdrecord filename ?
[03:50] <qwerty121> hi all! can someone tell me how to compile C programs in Ubuntu?
[03:50] <jeff__> old_gregg> it's a little more complicated.  you'll have to make your iso image first and then burn it.
[03:50] <robdig> Old_Gregg: it has a bunch of options, and it's been a while since i used it...
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> !compilers
[03:51] <jeff__> qwerty121> you'll need to install gcc for that.
[03:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about compilers - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:51] <|ns|nR8> qwerty121, install a compiler like gcc
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> !compile
[03:51] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)
[03:51] <robdig> qwerty121: install build-essential
[03:51] <qwerty121> jeff__ and |ns|nr8, it is installed
[03:51] <jeff__> old_gregg> Guis are a much better option, or else you'll have to do some reading.
[03:51] <sam_> i'm still not sure if i have 32bit or 64 bit, i didnt check when i installed with cd
[03:51] <|ns|nR8> whats the prob then
[03:51] <Old_Gregg> jeff_:  Okay, so I have a folder on my desktop.  Inside of which are 6 files, and a folder with 5200 other files in it.  I want to put the folder from my desktop onto the CD sans the folder (like, the CD itself is the folder on my desktop).  I have tried with the gui, but it locks up
[03:51] <jeff__> qwery121> then gcc filename.cpp should do.
[03:52] <jeff__> old_gregg> which gui app was it you tried?
[03:52] <kalpik> sam_, what output did uname -a give?
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: gksudo gedit  /etc/fstab
[03:52] <sam_> um
[03:52] <qwerty121> jeff__, but where are the conio.h and stdio.h files?
[03:52] <Old_Gregg> jeff_:  the CD/DVD writer with Gnome.
[03:52] <nickrud> Old_Gregg, take a look at the cdw package, it's used on in a console
[03:52] <Dregz> so, no creative x-fi guys in here?
[03:52] <sam_> linux sam-laptop 2.6.22-14-generic
[03:52] <sam_> #1 smp
[03:52] <Old_Gregg> nickrud:  I don't know what that means.  :(
[03:52] <MrPiracy> can anyone help me with AWN and intel video card? all help i find on the internet talks about nvidia ...
[03:53] <kalpik> sam_, the complete output..
[03:53] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, want me to pastebin?
[03:53] <Old_Gregg> Nautilus
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> YEs please
[03:53] <nickrud> Old_Gregg, what part?
[03:53] <Old_Gregg> jeff_:  Nautilus is what I'm using.
[03:53] <inaety> hello, for some reason amaroK started saying that my sound device is busy and there are xine parameters.  how can i fix this without rebooting
[03:53] <kalpik> sam_, in the end does it say i686 or x86_64?
[03:53] <sam_> linux sam-laptop 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMPdeb http://blognux.free.fr/debian unstable main
[03:53] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49376/
[03:53] <sam_> oh wait
[03:53] <Old_Gregg> nickrud:  Kind of all of it.  I know what a package is, but do I need to install something else?
[03:53] <jeff__> old_gregg> you might want to install GnomeBaker and give that a try, in case it's a software issue.
[03:53] <sam_> Linux sam-laptop 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Dec 18 08:02:57 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:54] <sam_> there it is
[03:54] <kalpik> sam_, its 32 bit :)
[03:54] <Old_Gregg> jeff_:  Can I just do sudo apt-get install GnomeBaker?
[03:54] <sam_> forgot i could copy paste
[03:54] <sam_> ok so that means it should be able to play flash..
[03:54] <kalpik> sam_, i686 is 32 bit and x86_64 is 64 bit
[03:54] <jeff__> old_gregg> that ought to do it.  if not, then Synaptic Package Manager might help.
[03:54] <kalpik> sam_, flash works in 64 bit too :)
[03:54] <sam_> oh but its easier with 32
[03:54] <Old_Gregg> jeff_:  Got it.  Is it ran from a terminal?
[03:55] <kalpik> sam_, true
[03:55] <sam_> i have a hp pavilion laptop with dualcore processor 2gb ram
[03:55] <jeff__> old_gregg> synaptic and GnomeBaker are both gui apps, so you'll find them in the gnome menus.
[03:55] <sam_> but wasnt sure if it could handle 64bit
[03:55] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: I dont see it in there... there is an option to mount removeable media.. I dont remember where it is in Gutsy and I am on a Feisty box at the moment
[03:55] <MrPiracy> hello, i receive error "could not acquire decoration manager selection ..."  when i try to run emerald -replace. Anyone could help me with this?
[03:56] <kalpik> sam_, it should support 64 bit
[03:56] <sam_> how can i get flash,java to work so I can view videos on youtube/google?
[03:56] <Old_Gregg> jeff_: Sweet!
[03:56] <Old_Gregg> jeff_: Gnomebaker ftw!

[03:57] <sam_> uh
[03:57] <derlin1400> todos
[03:57] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: Look for something in system preferences for removeable media
[03:57] <The_Doctor2> thor: The one that comes iwth Ubutnu \
[03:57] <Old_Gregg> jeff_:  If I want to be able to load the disk from boot, do I need to do something different?  ie do I need to "only create image"?
[03:57] <qwerty121> jeff__, how can i access stdio.h and conio.h files with gcc?

[03:57] <Old_Gregg> jeff_:  The disk already has an AUTORUN.INF on it
[03:57] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, found it
[03:57] <kalpik> sam_, lol.. what do you wanna know?
[03:58] <thor> The_Doctor2 again...depends. There are at least three different window managers for ubuntu, and each will use different software
[03:58] <zeeo2> hey guys how can i edit  vino settings from ssh im trying to setup vnc access from ssh
[03:58] <sam_> oh well..theres alot i need to know but first: how can I get sound to work?
[03:58] <kalpik> sam_, just install ubuntu-restricted-extras from synaptic
[03:58] <sam_> oh yea did that
[03:58] <reportingsjr> Does anyone know how to reinstall the codecs for all videos?
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> sam_: That link just says to put the name in your text of the person you are talking to to avoid confusion in a busy channel
[03:58] <sam_> someone told me that before
[03:58] <kalpik> sam_, which soundcard do you have?
[03:58] <jeff__> old_gregg> autorun.inf will not cause a disc to load on boot.  loading on boot requires a different disc image (i believe it is an option in gnomebaker somewhere though)  such discs are known as El-Torito discs.
[03:58] <sam_> kalpik_, not sure how do i find out?
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> thank you
[03:59] <qwerty121> how can i access stdio.h and conio.h files with gcc?
[03:59] <jeff__> old_gregg> look for an option like "bootable disc" in gnomebaker
[03:59] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, but it doesn't have many options... the only thing, on multimedia, is to choose wheter to play automatically or not.
[03:59] <marcioapf> Jack_Sparrow, what exactly should i look for?
 how do i find out which soundcard i have?
[03:59] <kalpik> sam_, lspci | grep audio
[03:59] <jeff__> qwert121> those are standard files, the path to which has to be set with the -I switch to gcc.
[03:59] <The_Doctor2> thor: Ubuntu Ubuntu, the one that uses GNOME. :P  What ever coems with it by default. Gnome-Screenshot I belvee
 ok
[03:59] <kalpik> sam_, paste it at pastebin.com and give link here
[04:00] <sundar> nR8 - Thanks!! port forwarding on the router helped :)  I see uploading and downloading happening at a good speed..seeding does not seem to be happening!! not sure why...probably ktorrent setting
[04:00] <Jack_Sparrow> marcioapf: Look at manually mounting it...
[04:00] <Old_Gregg> jeff_: there is an option for "Only Create Image"
[04:00] <robdig> qwerty121: should be in /usr/include. if not, install build-essential
[04:00] <qwerty121> jeff__, can you gimme a link that describes it all?
 pastepin.com says /home/pastebin/public_html/../posts/ needs to be a writable dir to use file storage engine
[04:00] <jeff__> old_gregg> that will actually take all your files, create what's called an "image" - that's the contents of the cdrom, sector by sector, and store that on disc.
[04:01] <qwerty121> robdig, thanks. they are there.
[04:01] <jeff__> old_gregg> you could use that option to prepare a disc to burn mutltiple times ahead of time and burn copies of that image repeatedly.  so not quite what you need. :)
[04:01] <Old_Gregg> jeff_:  and that does not make it bootable?
[04:01] <kalpik> sam_, how mane lines is it?
[04:01] <reportingsjr> How do I install video codecs? I don't know the name of them and somehow messed up the ones I have now
[04:01] <kalpik> sam_, its pastebin.com you can also try pastebin.ca

[04:02] <reportingsjr> Thank you
[04:02] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[04:02] <jeff__> old_gregg> nope, making the disc bootable requires a special header at the beginning of the image.  looking up your answer, hang on...
[04:02] <reportingsjr> Jack_Sparrow: Wait, what do I do with that?
 not sure it gave me this link: http://pastebin.ca/829424
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: ok.. so i think this is probably gonna be an issue w/ your Ethernet device.
[04:02] <thor> The_Doctor2 this is a guess as I don't use gnome...right click on the gnome-screenshot applet and see if you get a config menu
[04:02] <Old_Gregg> jeff_: I'm looking it up too, thought not terribly successfully.
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> UbunNoob: i really can't help you w/ that, as Google turns up nothing ont hat device.
[04:02] <Jack_Sparrow> reportingsjr: That is how you add the codecs that you wanted
[04:03] <UbunNoob> Anyone know how to manually configure an ethernet device
[04:03] <The_Doctor2> thor,  lol
[04:03] <tarzeau> UbunNoob: i know
[04:03] <kalpik> sam_, lol! run that command at the terminal, and paste the _output_ on pastebin.ca :P
[04:03] <UbunNoob> Indygunfreak: Thanks for your help
[04:03] <thor> UbunNoob change the lines in /etc/network/interfaces
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> np
[04:03] <reportingsjr> Jack_Sparrow: Oh, ok.
[04:03] <UbunNoob> not quite sure how to do it
 running lspci | grep audio at the terminal didn't have any effect
[04:04] <thor> UbunNoob you can also do it from the command line using the ifconfig command
[04:04] <thor> UbunNoob  open a terminal and type 'man ifconfig' for details
[04:04] <kalpik> sam_, hmm.. that means your card isnt being detected by the kernel
[04:04] <UbunNoob> I'm getting ready to open a terminal
[04:05] <Flughafen> can somebody help me, im having some trouble with ntfs support
 well I'm using a hp pavilion dv6000 laptop that was working just fine with vista
 i accidently erased vista with linux :(
[04:05] <alfermp> sam_, Good
[04:05] <kaje> I know it says it is still broken in the channel header, but has there been any breakthroughs on the Flash plugin for Gutsy?
[04:05] <reportingsjr> Jack_Sparrow: Umm, I think that's just for non-free formats. I somehow messed up the Ogg codecs :)
[04:05] <The_Doctor2> thor,  nope. that didn't work. :(
[04:05] <kalpik> sam_, i think that has the intel HD audio card.. which isnt supported well by gutsy.. you could try compiling a newer kernel
[04:06] <Jack_Sparrow> reportingsjr: You asked for video codecs...
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> kalpik: mine works fine, you need to recompile alsa.
 how do i do that?
[04:06] <Ttech> Jack_Sparrow,  LOL there the same thing. :P
[04:06] <Ttech> JK
[04:06] <jbmigel> sam_ it's lspci | grep Audio with a capital A
[04:06] <Dr_willis> There is a page for compiling the newer alsa modules also.
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> !intelhda | sam_
[04:06] <ubotu> sam_: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[04:06] <kalpik> jbmigel, small a also works :P
[04:06] <Old_Gregg> jeff_: Any luck?  I can't find anything
[04:06] <kalpik> sam_, follow what IndyGunFreak said
[04:06] <jbmigel> kalpik not on my machine
[04:06] <reportingsjr> Jack_Sparrow: I asked how to reinstall the messed up ones I have now, but fair enough..
 oh i got this: lspci | grep Audio
[04:07] <kalpik> jbmigel, hmm.. it works on mine! weird..
 i mean: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
[04:07] <kalpik> sam_, yea.. that's the HD Audio controller
 ok just making sure
[04:07] <Toma> Need a lil help. Im trying to get my wireless working again, but its not setting the mode to managed. Im using sudo of course, and using iwconfig. Im also using the ndiswrapper driver.
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: thats the exact one i have
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !lol > Ttech
 you fixed your problem i guess?
[04:08] <Ttech> Jack_Sparrow,  heh.  Although, I think you've gone a little bot happy. :P
[04:08] <tehm0nk> what is the command to get into the nvidia-settings?
[04:08] <IndyGunFreak> yes... hang on a sec.
[04:08] <thor> The_Doctor2 checking google...looks like gnome-screenshot should ask for a filename when you hit the button...you should be able to change the path there
[04:08] <kaje> Any word on when Flash is going to work in Gutsy?
[04:08] <The_Doctor2> thor: It does, but it alwasy goes back to the deckopt
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Ttech: After 50 or so hours of helping people each week, the fingers get a bit tired
[04:08] <kalpik> kaje, use the manual installer by adobe.. it works
[04:08] <reportingsjr> Jack_Sparrow: Any clue the name of Ogg codecs?
[04:08] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: what do you get when you put this in a terminal...   cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> kaje: no idea yet, but if you must have it use the workaround
[04:09] <Ttech> Jack_Sparrow,  heh. I do the programing, so I do a bit of both, techsupport and Programing, so I don't really get into the Ubuntu help because I don't have time. :P
[04:09] <thor> The_Doctor2 and now you know why I prefer xfce and gkrellmshoot <smile>
[04:09] <The_Doctor2> thor,  I suppose, but I can alwasy just install kscreenshot. OR something like that. And mess around iwth it. But i'd have to uninstall gnome screenshot
 I'm following the link you sent previously and right now the terminal is asking for a disk labeled ubuntu 7.10 gutsy gibbon
[04:10] <thor> The_Doctor2 not necessarily...they can all coexist on the same system
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: hold on just a sec, put this in a terminal, and see what your output is...   cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> reportingsjr: I need to eat dinner...   But not knowing what all you did or didnt do, I would start with the restricted formats, which is why I linked them.

[04:11] <UbunNoob1> The problem I'm having is that I'm not able to connect to the net. I've tried a static IP address, auto config and nothing works so I think it is an issue with the configuration of my ethernet adpt
[04:11] <Belkinzed> um
[04:12] <Fezzler> My Update Manager stopped working.  It will notify me of updates, but not install them.  Any ideas?
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: hmm, well, the Realtek is the same as mine, the other one is different though, mine is Conexant ID 2c06
 does that mean you can't fix the audio?
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: i don't know, i'll help you w/ it the way i did mine, but i won't guarantee success.
 I'll try anything at this point
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: type this w/o quotes.. "/join #indygunfreak"
[04:13] <jeff__> old_gregg> must fly, haven't found your answer but it's out there!
[04:13] <kalpik> IndyGunFreak, i guess compiling 2.6.23 works always..
[04:13] <Old_Gregg> Is there a way to create a partition, put files onto the partition, set that partition as the boot partition?
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> kalpik: maybe, i dont' know.. i've never messed w/ compiling kernels.
[04:14] <testtesttest3> test
[04:14] <bazhang> success!
[04:14] <kalpik> IndyGunFreak, you should try ;) kernelcheck makes it VERY easy! kcheck.sf.net
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> kalpik: lol, maybe some othertime, almost bedtime
[04:15] <jimmygoon> I want to be able to access my files from a server at home anywhere from a web browser, how would this be possible?
[04:15] <Fezzler> Can someone acknowledge this post as I'm not sure my connection is working correctly.
[04:16] <bazhang> hi Fezzler
[04:16] <Fezzler> baz : Txs
[04:16] <Flannel> jimmygoon: Sure.  Put them in ~/public_html and make them readable by www-data
[04:16] <bazhang> np
[04:16] <Flannel> jimmygoon: then go to http://yourhost/~username/
[04:16] <si0n>  do you guys know any good site or good book that has tutorials about linux system administration ?
[04:16] <Flannel> jimmygoon: or just move them to /var/www
[04:16] <FireJammer> Is there any known problem with window's boot manager not allowing GRUB to work?
[04:17] <jimmygoon> Flannel, yeah, that's what I said, he is looking for something more user friendly I guess
[04:17] <bazhang> http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialSysAdmin.html si0n
[04:17] <Flannel> jimmygoon: moving them to public_html is probably the most user friendly.  Any user can just drag his stuff there
[04:18] <bazhang> http://librenix.com/?inode=1917 si0n
[04:18] <jimmygoon> Flannel, yeah, alrighty, I'll talk to him again, thanks for the info
[04:18] <si0n> thanks bazhang

[04:19] <Fezzler> Can I reinstall the app that provides Update Manager?  It no longer works
[04:19] <jimmygoon> Fezzler, what doesn't work about it?
[04:20] <jbmigel> Old_Gregg you could do all that, though it's not easy... why would you want too?
[04:20] <jbmigel> Old_Gregg wouldnt it be easier to create a partition, backup your files there, then reinstall over the old one
[04:20] <Fezzler> jimbo: I tells me there are files that need updating, but when I click Install, nothing happens.
[04:20] <joann> does any one know information of compiz programming? I am looking for some tutorials or websites to get started.

[04:28] <adrift> was wondering if someone could help me out. I installed dual booted Ubuntu 7.10 a couple months ago, and updated it today and um... i'm experiencing some issues for one, my grub bootloader now no longer has Vista in it (the OS that i dual booted Ubuntu with) and also, my Resolution is totally screwed up. I have a Nvidia Geforce 7600 and I had the resolution displaying 1280x1024 and before I updated, everything looked an seemed fine. I was
[04:28] <adrift>  wondering if anyone could give me advice on getting back to where I was?
[04:28] <IdleOne> !compiz | joann try asking at the follwing link
[04:28] <thor> CppIsWeird if that is supposed to enable vnc so you can log in from elsewhere I don't think that will work

[04:28] <Old_Gregg> For the love of god, can someone help me?  I'm about to throw this POS out the window.  I have 6 files I want to turn into an ISO and burn onto a CD so I can boot from it.  I cannot get it to work for the life of me.
[04:29] <bastid_raZor> Old_Gregg:: possibly try poweriso to convert them.
[04:30] <IdleOne> Old_Gregg: dont think it will help if you throw it out the window. just relax and try poweriso like bastid_raZor just suggested
[04:30] <Ryan52> my laptop has x kind of messed up. In gdm the letters (where I type my user) are really big but they work fine in gnome. But now I switched to ion so in my terminal windows its like that too. Its so big that 3 lines of like 7 characters fit on my screen. Is there any way to fix this? I tried dpkg-reconfigure many times...
[04:30] <Toma-> I cant set the mode on my wifi card. Im using ndiswrapper and the r8180 driver. Any tips?
[04:31] <Old_Gregg> poweriso is windows though.
[04:31] <Fezzler> my Update Manager isn't working.  Can I reinstall or update???? What?  That apt?  GNOME?  Nautilus?
[04:31] <ryan_> How do you guys feel about BitchX vs. XChat?
[04:31] <bastid_raZor> adrift:: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg may help you fix your resolution issues
[04:32] <IdleOne> !offtopic | ryan_
[04:32] <ubotu> ryan_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:32] <IdleOne> ryan_: try them both and make up your own mind about it
[04:32] <bastid_raZor> Old_Gregg:: no it is available for linux. i use it in command line all the time
[04:32] <joann> thanks I'll take a look
[04:32] <charlesgrn> Hi. I've got a bit of an issue.. Ubuntu is detecting my WDA-1320 pci wireless card, but it's not creating an ath0 interface. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
[04:33] <adrift> Ryan, I was curious, do you know what I updated that messed up my resolution and took away Vista out of Grub?
[04:33] <skullhead> dos any one know what would be the problem if i have no audio in any browser when i go to youtube and yes i have the fix and ive installed flash player 9 manualy
[04:33] <Schiz0> Hey, where can I find the changelog of packages? Like recently there was a security update for the kernel, and I'm wondering what was changed.
[04:34] <ryan_> Nope.
[04:34] <ryan_> I've got no clue.
[04:34] <adrift> ok, well thanks anyways :D
[04:34] <Old_Gregg> bastid_raZor:  I unzipped it but how do I run it now?
[04:35] <bastid_raZor> Old_Gregg:: try poweriso -help
[04:35] <joann> thanks I'll take a look
[04:35] <adrift> is there anyway to go back to my previous install of ubuntu?
[04:35] <Old_Gregg> bastid_raZor:  Command not found
[04:36] <IdleOne> adrift: fresh install
[04:36] <IdleOne> !backup | adrift
[04:36] <ubotu> adrift: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[04:36] <adrift> ack IdleOne, any other way?
[04:36] <bastid_raZor> Old_Gregg::  right.. poweriso -? .. my mistake
[04:37] <Old_Gregg> bastid_raZor:  Command not found
[04:37] <skullhead> has any one fixed this whole flash player problem or is it just me still geting it?
[04:37] <sundar> i am having slow speed on my ktorrent...i forwarded the port in router
[04:37] <adrift> IdleOne, is there specifically a command that will restore back to a previous install?
[04:37] <IdleOne> adrift: you could try the Restore to Previous version application. ( hmmm wait that doesnt exist )
[04:37] <adrift> or, at least, do you know of one?
[04:37] <adrift> hehe
[04:38] <bastid_raZor> Old_Gregg:: move the poweriso binary to /usr/local/bin then try .. or be in the same directory as the unzipped and use ./poweriso -?
[04:38] <IdleOne> adrift: no there isnt any. fresh install is your best bet backup your /home and anything else you might want or need and there you go
[04:38] <adrift> wow
[04:38] <adrift> that sucks
[04:39] <adrift> my fear is that if I do a fresh reinstall I'll still have to figure out how to reconfigure grub to recognize Windows
[04:39] <IdleOne> adrift: I dont think it sucks. that is why sudo is required to install an app or upgrade. forces you to think of what you are doing and the implications
[04:39] <adrift> I mean, I've done it once, I just don't want to have to go through all of that again.
[04:40] <IdleOne> !fixgrub | adrift

[04:40] <adrift> good point IdleOne, but I suppose I relied on the Gui version of update manager to do my work for me
[04:40] <IdleOne> there you go
[04:40] <IdleOne> even the gui asked for password
[04:40] <adrift> haha.
[04:40] <Old_Gregg> bastid_raZor:  Okay, I got a list of commands.  I would like to turn the contents of a directory into an ISO file.  Would I go poweriso /home/greg/Desktop/Windows/*.* /home/greg/Desktop/WindowsXP.iso -ot iso  ?
[04:40] <adrift> well i suppose there's that.
[04:40] <IdleOne> but me telling you I told you so doesnt help.

[04:42] <adrift> hmm the link give me some info IdleOne,but it seems to depend heavily on me getting back into Vista. Unfortunately Vista is no longer an option in Grub

[04:48] <MuDBluR> nomasteryoda: don`t ?
[04:48] <nomasteryoda> nullvoid, you should be able to do that from live cd
[04:48] <nomasteryoda> MuDBluR, yes
[04:48] <IdleOne> nullvoid: use gparted ( in repos ) make sure to defrag windows first
[04:49] <nomasteryoda> its on the Ubuntu live cd
[04:49] <IdleOne> also on live cd yeah
[04:49] <EADG> charlesgrn: I'm outta ideas, other than trying eth1.
[04:49] <nullvoid> IdleOne: apt-get gparted, defrag windows and resize with gparted?
[04:49] <nomasteryoda> ya defrag is a must to make it work
[04:49] <nullvoid> don't have a live cd... only install.
[04:49] <nullvoid> can you run it over X
[04:49] <nomasteryoda> nullvoid, the alternate cd? or the one where you get a GUI desktop with the install icon on it?
[04:49] <IdleOne> nullvoid: you are probably better off using the live cd to do it but defrag is a must like nomasteryoda said
[04:49] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, it didnt quite work
[04:50] <nullvoid> Alternate CD
[04:50] <charlesgrn> EADG: Oh well. Thanks anyway.

[04:56] <ramon> welcom
[04:56] <orb> ah
[04:56] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, same result
[04:56] <pg> khaotik: What's the problem?
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen, pastebin the listing fdisk -l
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> err, sudo fdisk -l
[04:58] <orb> IndyGunFreak, how's that ubuntu working out for you?
[04:58] <khaotik> my restricted driver for nvidia is nabled. but i cant no longer access nvidia settings cuz it says command not there. i just want to change my screen resolution to 1280x800
[04:58] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49381/
[04:58] <IndyGunFreak> orb: perfect, been using it for 2yrs.. :)
[04:58] <orb> ah, awesome
[04:58] <orb> hmm, i'll bbl
[04:59] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen, so you have 2 ntfs drives....
[04:59] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, yes, one has windows on it, the other is for music and stuff
[04:59] <nomasteryoda> i've got one partition that is such
[04:59] <nomasteryoda> right
[04:59] <nomasteryoda> i gotcha
[04:59] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, i can no longer access my music and studd
[04:59] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, stuff*
[05:00] <Ryan52> how do I make xdm start ion3 enstead of gnome?
[05:00] <tehm0nk> !compiz
[05:00] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[05:00] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen,  so... if it is mounted... then try "ls /media/DRV5_VOL1"
[05:01] <myke54142> where can i see what req/min hardware requirements are?  i need to decide between xubuntu or kubuntu for a 800mhz pIII desktop
[05:01] <calvin> server asdf
[05:02] <wease|> hello people
[05:02] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, did nothing
[05:02] <Eroick> Wow, ubuntu's installer wont even start. This is with the alternate CD. It gives an error about PCI: Cannot allocate resource on region 1...
[05:02] <Eroick> It seems to be an Acer problem
[05:02] <Eroick> stupid acer...
[05:02] <khaotik> i did a sudo apt-get upgrade. could that have messed something up?? i had it working fine this morning until i ran that command. is there a way to reverse what i done
[05:02] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen, so its not mounted...
[05:02] <pg> I can't make Linux automatically establish a connection by dhcp when I boot.  Ndiswrapper is inserted, but I have to run dhclient manually.  dmesg output is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49380/
[05:02] <nullvoid> I have an Acer and I have no problems with Ubuntu
[05:02] <nullvoid> It works right out of the box.
[05:02] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, well it is but it isnt
[05:02] <Eroick> nullvoid: what version?
[05:02] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, it was yesterday but its not today
[05:03] <nullvoid> 7.10
[05:03] <nomasteryoda> has your system been restarted?
[05:03] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, it shows up in /media/ but i cant access it....many times
[05:03] <pg> myke54142: I want to know the answer to that question too
[05:03] <nomasteryoda> ya that is just a file pointer to mount it to
[05:03] <Sir_Sid> Where do applications install to? I just installed azureus and i want firefox to "open with" azureus instead of its default
[05:03] <snurtle> evening yall
[05:03] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, i can access it from windows fine so the drive is still in good shape
[05:03] <Eroick> there's something about gutsy's kernel that this computer (and a bunch more acers) can't handle.
[05:04] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen, so lets try again.. sudo mount ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/DRV5_VOL1
[05:04] <THE_FCC> mayday mayday
[05:04] <nomasteryoda> and report any errors
[05:04] <RB2> If I want to have a drive automatically mounted on boot, what's the easiest way to set that?
[05:04] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, same result
[05:04] <Eroick> It starts loading the kernel, gets to 100% and gives that error, ive tried noapci nolapci and still no dice.
[05:04] <nomasteryoda> errors?
[05:04] <Sir_Sid> Where do applications install to? I just installed azureus and i want firefox to "open with" azureus instead of its default
[05:04] <Eroick> Same deal with Wubi install.
[05:04] <Eroick> so its not the liveCD
[05:04] <nullvoid> hmm...
[05:05] <nullvoid> Is your Acer a 64 bit?
[05:05] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, no errors, same output
[05:05] <nomasteryoda> sudo ls -al /media/DRV5_VOL1 will show anything listed there
[05:05] <migman> does anyone know how to tell which temperature sensor controls what in pwmconfig program?
[05:06] <gvtbs> ssss
[05:06] <gvtbs> sssssss
[05:06] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen, try "sudo mount -a" just to let me see what it tries to do
[05:06] <nullvoid> Speaking of which, is there anyway to downgrade from a 64bit Ubuntu to a 32bit Ubuntu.
[05:06] <RB2> Sir_Sid, I use: 'whereis <filename>' to find executables. Then, you can set it in your firefox preferences.
[05:06] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, it outputs 2 things that are not files
[05:06] <nomasteryoda> should mount all drives/partitions in /etc/fstab
[05:06] <nullvoid> ... or at least preserve the data.
[05:06] <Eroick> nullvoid: nope
[05:06] <Sir_Sid> Thanks RB2, I got it. It was in /usr/bin
[05:06] <aaabbbcccddedfsd> hey
[05:07] <aaabbbcccddedfsd> look at there
[05:07] <aaabbbcccddedfsd> http://pastebin.ca/829465
[05:07] <Eroick> nullvoid: i think its the Radeon graphics card
[05:07] <nullvoid> That causes your error?
[05:07] <pg> !offtopic > gvtbs
[05:07] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49382/
[05:08] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen, hang on... just leave off the ntfs-3g part... and try sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/DRV5_VOL1
[05:08] <michael> How can I change the default fonts in Ubuntu 7.10?  After I installed the fonts from Automatix, everything is light and fuzzy
[05:08] <nomasteryoda> automatix is not nice
[05:09] <michael> I thought it would be, but now dissapointed
[05:09] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, same output as -a
[05:09] <myke54142> pg: http://linuxreviews.org/software/desktops/
[05:09] <nomasteryoda> and that mount point is there?
[05:09] <myke54142> i guess it'll be xubuntu then
[05:10] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, you mean /media/DRV5_VOL1?
[05:10] <RB2> michael, automatix is the devil incarnate. :) Go to System-->Preferences --> Appearance
[05:10] <nomasteryoda> myke54142, the gnome should work on there if you wanted to live with some slowness...
[05:10] <nomasteryoda> yes Flughafen
[05:10] <RB2> michael, There's a Fonts tab
[05:10] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, yes, its in my filesystem already
[05:10] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, could it be a permissions thing?
[05:10] <nomasteryoda> try the command sudo umount /media/DRV5_VOL1
[05:10] <pg> michael: Have you tried System -> Preferences -> Appearance?
[05:11] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen, if you do a "sudo ls -al /media/DRV5_VOL1" there is no higher ... so you'd be able to see files in it if it was mounted
[05:11] <pg> myke54142:: thanks.  I actually use Ubuntu (GNOME) on an 800MHz thinkpad fine
[05:11] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, its it says /media/DRV5_VOL1: not mounted
[05:11] <nomasteryoda> yes .. more ram is better
[05:11] <nomasteryoda> ok
[05:11] <xcom> the latest version of ubuntu has good bluetooth support?
[05:12] <rubydiamond> xcom: yes
[05:12] <Eroick> nullvoid: thats my best guess.
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen,
[05:12] <Eroick> nullvoid: its an onboard card
[05:12] <nullvoid> ohh...
[05:12] <xcom> rubydiamond: so it's got some kind of gui program that displays what devices it can see
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> your NTFS drive contains errors from that "sudo mount -a"
[05:12] <xcom> rubydiamond: and you can transfer files easilly?
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> it shows them that is...
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/DRV5_VOL1 -o force
[05:12] <pg> myke54142: And they say KDE4 beta is 40% faster than KDE3, so maybe you can use that in April
[05:12] <Eroick> I guess my options are to go down to LTS or 7.04...
[05:12] <nullvoid> It sounds like for now you have no choice but to try another distro and see if it works... unless someone here or on the forums has a solution. :s
[05:13] <nomasteryoda> will mount it, but i recommend checking for errors before doing so
[05:13] <rubydiamond> xcom: try #ubuntu
[05:13] <nomasteryoda> if you want to keep the info on it
[05:13] <pg> I can't make Linux automatically establish a connection by dhcp when I boot.  Ndiswrapper is inserted, but I have to run dhclient manually.  dmesg output is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49380/
[05:13] <xcom> oh, this is #ubuntu-unregged or #ubuntu?
[05:13] <IdleOne> xcom: same thing
[05:13] <tehm0nk> anyone here with dual video cards w/ dual X screens?
[05:14] <nomasteryoda> mount tried to tell you that... i had to learn that myself... ntfs-3g was new to me with Gutsy...
[05:14] <Eroick> nullvoid: well, i know that older releases work
[05:14] <RB2> xcom, also take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bluetooth and the links on that page.
[05:14] <Eroick> nullvoid: so its looking like that or PCLinuxOS
[05:14] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, i would love to keep everything on it
[05:15] <brokentire> I have an HP notebook...I have sound...but I cant get the builtin mic to work any suggestions...pm me you may
[05:16] <tehm0nk> Has anyone had problems with compiz and ubuntu
[05:16] <sancho___> since upgrading to 7.10 (gutsy), i've been getting errors when i try to save files to disk in openoffice apps, gvim, maybe others...
[05:16] <sancho___> "Invalid file name"   "Invalid byte sequence in conversion input"
[05:16] <presto101> anyone here use envy
[05:16] <W1ZrD> Any tips regarding a good c++ editor?
[05:16] <sancho___> W1ZrD: vi(1)
[05:16] <W1ZrD> argh :)
[05:17] <voidmage> W1ZrD: i second vi
[05:17] <KyleS-home> vim?
[05:17] <W1ZrD> everything that starts with 'vi...' is....unf unf
[05:17] <sancho___> W1ZrD: if you want an IDE, that's a different story.
[05:17] <Dr_willis> i sort of like fte.. :)
[05:17] <HardDisk> presto101, you really don't need envy.
[05:17] <KyleS-home> vi is the best :P
[05:17] <xcom> RB2: thanks, it looks good. I'm getting sick of having to hook my phone up each time i want to test stuff on it
[05:17] <presto101> i had a bit of trouble upgrading my driver and was wanting to discuss the issues i still have
[05:17] <Dr_willis> I second that.. envy = bad. :)
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> Flughafen, then you can defrag and it should fix your error and let it mount easily like before
[05:18] <RB2> W1ZrD, I haven't used it, but if you're looking for an IDE, I heard good things about Code::Blocks
[05:18] <nomasteryoda> apt-get install defrag
[05:18] <RB2> xcom, np
[05:18] <presto101> yeah it was my mistake i got impatient for the new 169. nvidia drivers
[05:18] <W1ZrD> RB2: thanks, I just wanted something else than vi :)
[05:18] <MrSmurfing> hi
[05:18] <HardDisk> I would advise to either use the restricted drivers OR if you have to, use the binaries provided by the manufacturer ie ATI/Nvidia.
[05:18] <presto101> my nexuiz benchmarks are higher but my glxgears is lower?
[05:19] <Dr_willis> glxgears is not a reliable benchmark. :)
[05:19] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, now how do i use it?
[05:19] <HardDisk> don't depend on glxgears.
[05:19] <RB2> W1ZrD, I rely on SciTE Text Editor
[05:19] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, is it a command line program?
[05:19] <MrSmurfing> I'm new to shell scripting... I have a variable $signal and it contains a number with a - in front of it... I'm trying to strip off the "-" character - so if signal=-65 then signal=65
[05:20] <W1ZrD> RB2: syntax highlightning?
[05:20] <RB2> W1ZrD, yep.
[05:20] <W1ZrD> Nice, I'll take a look at that one then
[05:20] <RB2> W1ZrD, Support everything from HTML/CSS to C/C++, python... a huge range of language support.
[05:20] <presto101> HardDisk and Dr_willis so id trust the nexuiz benchmarks more than glx gears
[05:20] <ericsc> Hello all.  Anyone familiar with a Dell Inspiron 9300?
[05:21] <W1ZrD> ericsc: it's a black box from dell?
[05:21] <Cavisty> Could anybody help me out with my USB headset? Ive gotten the sound to work with like xmms, it wont work with totem, or firefox
[05:21] <ericsc> W1ZrD.  Silver, not black notebook
[05:22] <HardDisk> presto101, aye.
[05:22] <W1ZrD> ericsc: ah, was a 50/50 :)
[05:22] <HardDisk> presto101, speaking from a tux gamer myself :)
[05:22] <presto101> HardDisk thanks
[05:22] <HardDisk> as*
[05:22] <pg> MrSmurfing: new=$(echo $signal | sed -r 's/^-//')
[05:22] <presto101> HardDisk i was a bit worried after i had some trouble
[05:22] <ericsc> W1ZrD:  Running Gutsy, but have no sound from the built in speakers.  Fiesty had no problems.
[05:23] <MrSmurfing> pg: dude, I have no idea what that means, but I'll try it... thanks
[05:23] <HardDisk> if you have nexius on high settings and still getting over 80-100FPS you're alright :)
[05:23] <pg> MrSmurging: see also http://wooledge.org:8000/BashFAQ
[05:23] <MrSmurfing> great, thanks
[05:23] <W1ZrD> ericsc: would that be the openal drivers then?
[05:23] <pg> MrSmurfing: man sed
[05:24] <W1ZrD> ericsc: you get sound with plugged in speakers/headphones?
[05:24] <ericsc> W1ZrD:  Don't know.  How would I check (I don't think I insalled anything special)
[05:24] <HardDisk> presto101, speaking of games I know this is offtopic, BUT..try alien arena, urban terror, frets on fire and gridwars
[05:24] <MrSmurfing> which man sed what?
[05:24] <Flughafen> nomasteryoda, ill defrag it from my windows partition
[05:24] <presto101> my nexuis benchmark went from 26/50/75 old to 37/60/92 new
[05:24] <ericsc> W1ZrD:  Headset works fine.
[05:24] <MrSmurfing> lol
[05:24] <sancho___> MrSmurfing: or ${signal##-}
[05:24] <Jack_Smirnoff> HardDisk: dont forget sauerbratten
[05:24] <HardDisk> well yea :)
[05:24] <pg> I can't make Linux automatically establish a connection by dhcp when I boot.  Ndiswrapper is inserted, but I have to run dhclient manually.  dmesg output is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49380/  It seems that the connec
[05:25] <HardDisk> but the last two games I mentioned are not FPS
[05:25] <pg> it seems that the connection is dropped by NM
[05:25] <romistrub> Allo allo
[05:25] <HardDisk> I love gridwars, you HAVE to play it when you're not sober.
[05:25] <HardDisk> ok enough of that, I have to go to bed, 7:30am
[05:25] <presto101> HardDisk ive tried most of those and like them quite a bit i mainly was useing nexuiz as a benchmark tool
[05:26] <moDumass> hey all
[05:26] <moDumass> any ideas on how to install a logitech quickcam communicator in gutsy?
[05:26] <sancho___> pg: good syntax to know ( ${name#pattern} and ${name%pattern} )
[05:26] <HardDisk> presto101, understandable.
[05:26] <Jack_Smirnoff> moDumass: the bot has a link for webcams , I dont have one...
[05:26] <HardDisk> moDumass, I have one, and it works out of the box
[05:26] <presto101> one other question if i can HardDisk is there a way to make sure everything is good to go
[05:26] <moDumass> !webcam
[05:26] <ubotu> Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[05:27] <HardDisk> moDumass, you can test it, but downloading an app called Cheese
[05:27] <moDumass> thanks
[05:27] <HardDisk> but = by
[05:27] <HardDisk> damn
[05:27] <HardDisk> I really need sleep :)
[05:27] <HardDisk> well presto101 check by looking at nvidia-settings (if you're nvidia) and got all your settings in order.
[05:28] <HardDisk> presto101, and I assume you are using the restricted drivers?
[05:28] <_Casey_> !hdaintel
[05:28] <ubotu> For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[05:28] <moDumass> hmm, what is the difference between easycam and easycam2?
[05:28] <romistrub> alright, so... I'm trying to settle myself into the "linux community" so to speak...
[05:28] <HardDisk> difference of 1
[05:28] <HardDisk> romistrub, you don't settle, you dive in.
[05:28] <presto101> HardDisk yes the brand new ones
[05:28] <romistrub> I want to help out... learn more....
[05:28] <HardDisk> presto101, then you should be fine, enjoy gaming :)
[05:28] <presto101> 169.07
[05:29] <HardDisk> that's fine.
[05:29] <romistrub> HardDisk: You're not kidding :P
[05:29] <Jack_Smirnoff> romistrub: You are in the rihgt place to learn
[05:29] <HardDisk> there are sites to help such as ubuntuguide.org ubuntugeek.com ubuntuhq.com
[05:29] <presto101> i checked everything and it looks good except im getting 2 errors when i start
[05:29] <HardDisk> 2 errors when you start what?
[05:29] <presto101> nvidia settings
[05:29] <W1ZrD> ericsc: not sure about that problem, but this might help https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gutsy_Intel_HD_Audio_Controller
[05:30] <presto101> i start it from the terminal
[05:30] <HardDisk> ok
[05:30] <HardDisk> does it load?
[05:30] <ericsc> W1ZrD:  Thanks.  Will take a look
[05:30] <HardDisk> also you may have to sudo nvidia-settings
[05:30] <presto101> yes it does
[05:30] <HardDisk> not just plain
[05:30] <romistrub> Well, the more I learn, the more I'm fascinated by it. From the very beginning, working with linux has made me gain a new appreciation for the work that goes into hardware and software. Used to take all of that jazz for granted. Hehe.
[05:30] <HardDisk> you wont be able to save some settings without sudeo
[05:30] <HardDisk> sudo
[05:30] <presto101> no the full gui interface
[05:31] <presto101> here is the 1st error
[05:31] <pg> sancho_: it's cool, but I think it's more readable to use universal tools.  Less things should be implemented inside the shell, less special cases in bash scripts and more portability across shells

[05:31] <HardDisk> presto101, I know run sudo nvidia-settings rather than nvidia-settings alone
[05:31] <ime3> i'm trying to figure out what is wrong with this code... cat >> /etc/inittab << face="courier new">1:2345:respawn:/sbin/rungetty                (line2)       --autologin intel        (line3)   EOF                  and i get            ">" when i copy paste this into the terminal
[05:31] <HardDisk> presto101, oh just ignore that
[05:31] <HardDisk> not a big deal
[05:31] <Khisanth> romistrub: many people would say that is a bad thing :)
[05:31] <Jack_Smirnoff> presto101: Please use the pastebin to upload that.... then post the link to it in here
[05:31] <presto101> ok thanks i feel better
[05:32] <presto101> oops sorry your right i forgot
[05:32] <HardDisk> s/your/you're
[05:32] <HardDisk> don't you just hate people that do that?
[05:32] <The_Doctor2> ../aprt
[05:32] <romistrub> Khisanth: Well, I've always enjoyed poking around with things I didn't understand... this opens up a whole new world of those things ;)
[05:32] <Fezzler> Id I'm user "Dad" and I'm the administrator, what command line instruction do I give to make sure "Dad" has administrator rights?
[05:32] <kye> how can i make ubuntu auto mount /dev/sda1/WinXP when it starts?
[05:33] <HardDisk> " I've always enjoyed poking around with things I didn't understand..." I don't know if that's a good thing too :)
[05:33] <pg> HardDisk: s/that/who
[05:33] <The_Doctor2> Fezzler, there is only one "super user" and You can set user options fomr the users & groups menu
[05:33] <HardDisk> pg, my point exactly :)
[05:33] <romistrub> HardDisk: Hogwash :P... one of my favourite ways to learn!
[05:33] <HardDisk> had a buddy who did that ALL the time with me.
