[01:48] <learnfromscratch> i had installed lftp ... but when i connect it says Login failed: 550 SSL/TLS required on the control channel ...
[01:48] <raid> i cant write on my external HD or flashdisk, so i was wondering if i could just change permanently permissions to /media
[01:48] <rockz> i have a little problem... i compile my program and when i run (f3) my program dont run... a message appear: anyone runable for this file (translate portuguese to english)
[01:49] <ubu_on_epia> Jowi, so agppart, direct rendering manager, and via unichrome are compiled in... 8no module)
[01:50] <debussy> ?
[01:50] <irvin> raid, what's the current permission of /media?
[01:50] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: yep, that's it.
[01:51] <Knight_Lord> rockz what?
[01:51] <debussy> what?
[01:51] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: and in agpgart there is a "Via chipset support" as well
[01:51] <rockz> my C program dont run
[01:51] <ubu_on_epia> I'm pretty sure i double checked the kernel config.... it takes ages to compile :-0
[01:51] <rockz> i compile the program... ok
[01:51] <Knight_Lord> rockz can you paste the original message
[01:52] <Knight_Lord> rockz (even if it's in portuguese)
[01:52] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: will be quicker this time to compile. depends on how many modules you have. the more modules, the longer time it will take
[01:52] <ubu_on_epia> Jowi, via-agp support is compiled in
[01:52] <rockz> in portuguese: Nenhum executvel para este arquivo.
[01:52] <Knight_Lord> rockz open a shell and check the permissions of the file
[01:52] <rockz> ok
[01:53] <ubu_on_epia> rockz, try chmod +x on that file
[01:53] <Knight_Lord> rockz you can also check with "file <filaname>" to see what kind of file it is
[01:53] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: very good. then you MUST check your monitor ranges. they are way off, probably that's why you don't get a picture but hear a sound. fix that before you compile.
[01:53] <Blue-Steel> how do i add  the kdm scritp to boot ? or once we install  kde its auto-done ?
[01:54] <raid> irvin, its 755
[01:54] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: "sudo ddcprobe" should give you plenty of info
[01:54] <ubu_on_epia> Jowi, I think my kernel is fine so far... will do another dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with conservative settings. be back in a minute
[01:54] <raid> irvin, i dont have write permissions on group and others
[01:55] <rockz> if i create a new program it dont run too
[01:56] <irvin> raid, that's the same as mine
[01:57] <irvin> raid, if you know the device name of the external disks you can try hardcoding it to /etc/fstab and mount it on your home folder
[01:57] <irvin> like /home/raid/external
[01:57] <raid> irvin, i tried to format also my external disks with gparted, but i dont have permissions...
[01:57] <raid> irvin, ok... but i'm gonna have to do it every time for every external disk i mount?
[01:58] <irvin> umm.. automounting of usb disks should work in breezy
[01:58] <albacker> yes you have to do it, unless you edit fstab
[01:58] <albacker> /etc/fstab
[01:59] <irvin> and mount -a later
[01:59] <raid> albacker, i'm too noob to do that yet
[02:00] <raid> albacker, dont know how, i'm still learning how to mount with terminal... :((
[02:00] <irvin> raid, can you do a test for us?
[02:00] <raid> irvin, of course
[02:00] <irvin> raid, can you insert your usb disk and try pasting what mount says
[02:00] <raid> ok
[02:01] <raid> wai, i'll get it
[02:01] <albacker> raid, mount /dev/devicename mountpoint     where mountpoint is a dir
[02:02] <Troggeh> A quick question for safety: Does the ubuntu installer check an existing boot-partition I previously declared to be /boot for an existing grub before overwriting and killing my existing grub-config ?
[02:02] <talavera> i have download a file and i don't know where is the file?
[02:02] <irvin> talavera, maybe on your desktop
[02:03] <albacker> talavera, what did you downloaded it with ?
[02:03] <albacker> desktop, homedir or /temp
[02:03] <talavera> amule
[02:03] <albacker> it might be on /temp my firefox downloads files there :)
[02:03] <albacker> there should be something like ~/.amule
[02:03] <mumu> just installed. having major problems...
[02:03] <albacker>  /home/talavera/.amule
[02:04] <albacker> try that, and see if theres any download directory.
[02:04] <ejofee> what i love about ubuntu is that it doesn't have anything like a comercial version, with us using a shitty "community version" (like some bunch of... testers, as mandriva, redhat, suse, etc. make their community members feel like), while it still compares to them in quality. i simply feel respected in this community.
[02:04] <raid> irvin, devicename is what i see in "computer"
[02:04] <raid> irvin, ???
[02:04] <mumu> does anyone know why sudo wouldn't work? no error message. sudo just doesn't work.
[02:04] <irvin> raid, can you open a Terminal for us?
[02:05] <Jowi> mumu: exactly what do you type?
[02:05] <Knight_Lord> mumu it there's not error message, then it works ;-)
[02:05] <raid> irvin, did so... how do i see my devicename?
[02:05] <irvin> Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[02:05] <mumu> say, sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:05] <mumu> nothing happens.
[02:05] <odat> i know this is ubuntu which i use daily and i'm using right now but can anyone give me an honest opinion of which is faster gnome or kde
[02:05] <albacker> raid, device name is something like hda1, hda2, hda3 or sda1, sda2, sda3...
[02:05] <irvin> raid, what does mount say?
[02:05] <ejofee> ... if you feel what i mean :)
[02:05] <Knight_Lord> mumu what about sudo ls?
[02:05] <Troggeh> I'm terribly scared of grub-installation messing up my existing bootloader.config
[02:06] <raid> /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)

[02:06] <Mabus06> no pastes
[02:06] <alamba> hi all...anyone here tried out LTSP on ubuntu?
[02:06] <Mabus06> !paste
[02:06] <ubotu> rumour has it, paste is please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ or #flood to paste large amounts of text
[02:06] <raid> mabus06, sorry
[02:06] <talavera> i haven't such file
[02:06] <irvin> yes raid, please use the pastebin
[02:06] <Mabus06> raid, just telling you before some grumpy oldbie yells
[02:06] <mustard5> :)
[02:06] <mumu> i just created this user doing `adduser mumu`. maybe that doesn't work?
[02:06] <Mabus06> oh, hey there mustard5
[02:06] <mustard5> hey Mabus06 :)
[02:07] <Jowi> mumu: you must add the "admin" group to the user
[02:07] <raid> will keep in mind, nobody told me so far :P
[02:07] <mumu> jowi: tks
[02:07] <irvin> raid, i should have sorry
[02:07] <raid> irvin, np... "ignorantia lex non excusat" :D
[02:08] <raid> irvin, my bad... anyway... going back to my prob... what should i do now ?
[02:08] <irvin> raid, is the device present in /media ?
[02:09] <albacker> CYA ALL
[02:09] <Jowi> cu albacker
[02:09] <irvin> bye albacker
[02:09] <raid> no, i unmounted it
[02:10] <irvin> :-(
[02:10] <raid> remounting, sorry
[02:10] <mustard5> hehe
[02:11] <irvin> it appears that the device is automounted with rw access, there should be an icon on the desktop
[02:11] <raid> ok, should i repaste you mount output?
[02:11] <raid> irvin, there is
[02:11] <knubbe> anyone who can help me to enable gd in php on ubuntu?
[02:12] <irvin> raid, can you double-click on it any try creating a folder?
[02:12] <LeeJunFan> is the gcc in ubuntu multiarch? ie, there isn't a special one to install for compiling 386 binaries on a x86_64 system?
[02:12] <raid> irvin, thats not my problm... i can use my flash disks
[02:13] <raid> irvin, i cant for xample format them with gparted or so
[02:13] <raid> irvin, and having problems with my external hd, it all seems ok when i write and all but afetr i unmount and when i try to use it with other pc i find nothign in it... as if it hadnt writtn everything...
[02:15] <Jowi> raid: if the disk/partition is locked in gparted you have to unmount it first. if it is not locked and nothing seem to happen after you apply the changes, try to reboot the pc (the partition table might have been changed)
[02:16] <raid> irvin, if i unmount it it disappears from gparted list of devices
[02:16] <irvin> raid, of course it should
[02:16] <Jowi> raid: then you should add it to fstab, but add the option "noauto"
[02:17] <Jowi> raid, example: /dev/hda1      /media/windows  vfat    defaults,user,noauto,umask=000  0       0
[02:18] <bradley_> any tips on getting java to work with firefox?
[02:18] <Jowi> !java
[02:18] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[02:18] <raid> irvin, ok, so what i'm i doing... i'm disabling the automatic mounting of that volume?
[02:18] <Jowi> there you go bradley_ , the restrictedformats page got the plugin covered as well
[02:19] <_sebastian> Hi I need help.  I have set up Apache,  PHP, and MySQL to wrok on my Ubuntu.  and now I am trying to make it so people can put in my ip address in there browser and connect to my web server.   I have tryed to  open up the ports on my router.  and stuff.    ,but nope when I put my own ip address in.  I ccannot connect to it
[02:20] <korhalf> apache isnt up.
[02:20] <ubu_on_epia> re
[02:20] <_sebastian> what?
[02:20] <bradley_> thanks!
[02:20] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: update please
[02:20] <korhalf> _sebastian, try typing localhost in the address bar, if that doesnt work, restart apache with sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart
[02:20] <ubu_on_epia> tried another monitor (better one)
[02:20] <ubu_on_epia> so it's not a sync prob
[02:20] <_sebastian> yes Apache is running
[02:20] <korhalf> remember to open port 80
[02:21] <_sebastian> i'll try that korhalf and I tryed to open port 80
[02:21] <korhalf> and it maybe possible that your isp doesnt allow you to use port 80 or something
[02:21] <ubu_on_epia> the monitor would tell me, if the video is out of sync. But there's just no video output with the via xmodule
[02:21] <lfop> is firefox released under some kind of free software license?
[02:21] <mjr> lfop, yes, it is
[02:22] <lfop> how come there is no source to download
[02:22] <_sebastian> yes localhost works
[02:22] <mjr> yes, there is
[02:22] <lfop> oh
[02:22] <lfop> k
[02:22] <ubu_on_epia> dri and stuff is loaded and seems to work, according to the logs....
[02:23] <ubu_on_epia> .... hmmm... so why is there no (/&$-ing video :-(
[02:23] <_sebastian> well I opended up a port in my routher configuration page.  a efw weeks or more ago.  so I could host my game.  I just put the port in the special application stuff.  and it worked.  I treyd the same thing with 80  for APpache, but nnoope that won't do it
[02:23] <lfop> ubu_on_epia, what is your problem?
[02:23] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: i tell you. the monitor values are whack. what is your monitor model and number?
[02:24] <Jowi> lfop: customer epia kernel with dri.
[02:24] <_sebastian> I was reading some webpages.  and something about how Apache can be set up to use a virtual server or something?
[02:24] <Jowi> customer = custom
[02:25] <redguy||work> _sebastian: the best advice you can get is to read more of these webpages you were talking about
[02:25] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: paste me your new xorg.conf
[02:26] <ubu_on_epia> One is an el cheapo (Scott 14-inch TE518B) which i just use for setting up the boxes, and i tried my big Fujitsu-Siemens M2102 21 inch lately
[02:26] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: which one you want to use?
[02:26] <_sebastian> or have I opended up port 80 wrong in my routher configuration?  Trigger Port 80  Public Port 80  Public Type TCP Enabled Tick.  and that's a SMC Networks router by the way
[02:27] <ubu_on_epia> None of them.... it's going to be a 15 inch TFT, but it's not here at the moment
[02:28] <jonty34>  Hello im new to linux, I have a network setup with a windows pc and a linux pc. How would i run a windows program from the windows machine on my linux pc using Wine over the network? Is there any other programs i could use?
[02:28] <ejofee> is it feasible to port yast to ubuntu?
[02:28] <guest_> hi
[02:28] <guest_> how do i shut off autocompletion in openoffice2?
[02:29] <Goshawk> i've problem play a dvd... this is the error reported by totem: Could not read title information for DVD.
[02:29] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. when selecting the monitor untick all values except 1024x768 (just to make sure). select the via driver and dri. after your done, give me the xorg.conf and i check it out.
[02:30] <redguy||work> ejofee: i've heard that some people are trying to port yast to debian
[02:30] <ubu_on_epia> Here's my current xorg.conf (except that I changed the driver back to vesa...)
[02:30] <ubu_on_epia> http://pastebin.com/465186
[02:30] <ejofee> guest_: tools (menu entry) / autocorrect (menu entry) / word completion (tab)
[02:31] <ejofee> guest_: is this what you were looking for?
[02:31] <ejofee> redguy||work: is it serious a project?
[02:31] <guest_> oh, of couse ejofee
[02:31] <guest_> thank you a lot man : )
[02:31] <ejofee> guest_: anytime! :)
[02:31] <guest_> See you around :) )
[02:32] <redguy||work> ejofee: http://yast4debian.alioth.debian.org/
[02:32] <ejofee> redguy||work: thank you
[02:32] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: the horiz values are definetley wrong.
[02:32] <gnomefreak> it should be safe to go into grub/menu.lst and just change the name of one of the operating systems right?
[02:32] <ejofee> hey, anybody have any idea what happened to #gentoo? why has it disappeared from freenode just like that?
[02:32] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: sudo ddcprobe to check
[02:33] <ejofee> (and then reappeared)
[02:34] <ubu_on_epia> Jowi, yes, I'll paste the output of ddcprobe into the xorg.conf...
[02:34] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: k
[02:35] <ubu_on_epia> http://pastebin.com/465189 is the ddc-probe-output for the currently connected el-cheapo
[02:37] <Goshawk> what about this error reading a dvd? libdvdread: Can't open file VIDEO_TS.IFO.
[02:39] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: looks ok. did you run the via driver successfully before doing the wiki?
[02:41] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi: it's me, ubu_on_epia, from my big box...
[02:42] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: k. did you get my last message?
[02:42] <stef_ubu_epia> No, was fumbling on the xorg.conf
[02:42] <linuX|BowlingX> hi
[02:43] <geloescht> how can i check, which version of ndiswrapper is included in ubuntu 5.10?
[02:43] <stef_ubu_epia> Ok, where do you think is the problem: 1.) kernel miscompiled 2.) xorg.conf 3.) drivers buggy?
[02:43] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: ddcprobe look good. did the via driver work before you compiled the epia kernel from the wiki?
[02:43] <linuX|BowlingX> iam new @ubuntu and i have a small question :D, whats about the root account? I never give a password, how can i join my root Account after a fresh installation?
[02:43] <gnomefreak> packages.ubuntu.com has a list of all packages for all distros of ubuntu
[02:44] <Amaranth> !tell linuX|BowlingX about sudo
[02:44] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi: no, never... the only time the via driver was working was with an old Knoppix CD with Xfree 4.3... never got it to work with xorg
[02:45] <stef_ubu_epia> but the via driver on xfree did only 640x480
[02:45] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: are you using a standard breezy install?
[02:45] <gnomefreak> safe to change name of os in grub but keep boot options and parameters the same?
[02:45] <linuX|BowlingX> k, thanks ;)
[02:45] <stef_ubu_epia> yup, freshly installed and untweaked (except dist-upgrade)
[02:47] <DeathWatch> wenas
[02:47] <DeathWatch> alguien vivo por ahi?
[02:47] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: hmmm. my via driver worked fine in 2d on a fresh install.
[02:47] <stef_ubu_epia> Maybe i should try the binary drivers from viaarena (as told in epiawiki.org)
[02:48] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi, is there a way u could send me your kernel image? Would a test help at all?
[02:49] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: try to install one of the linux-restricted-modules as well. i will put up all the files on my webserver. hang
[02:50] <lahDdah> hi all.. newbie ubuntu user.. it rocks
[02:51] <linkd> yay
[02:52] <u|qos> why can't i use log_progress_msg? always "command not found" ... i included ". /lib/lsb/init-functions" ... does somebody know?
[02:52] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: not sure the image will do you much good since I probably have other modules. but take it if you wish. i also put my kernel .config file. cp it to your sourcedir and make it, and don't forget to install the modules.
[02:52] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: http://underlig.homelinux.org
[02:53] <k31th> watsup
[02:54] <jono> is there a way to turn off usplash on boot?
[02:54] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi: thx so far... for diagnostic purposes they will help me, even if they don't work as a working kernel
[02:54] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: wierd. maybe it's worth installing fresh and see if via driver work in xorg for you in pure 2d.
[02:55] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: we have the same board (haven't we? running the Nehemia cpu?)
[02:55] <stef_ubu_epia> jang on, got to switch over to the epia-box
[02:55] <selinium> hi all, i am doing a remote upgrade on a PC, it appaers to have locked up on a fontconfig question.  What is my best option now?
[02:56] <selinium> hi thoreauputic :)
[02:56] <thoreauputic> hi selinium :)
[02:57] <drcode> hi all
[02:57] <drcode> how I can setupup socks 5 in linux?
[02:57] <drcode> any idea?
[02:58] <esj> are there any good instructions on how to take an existing debian package and convert it to ubuntu?
[02:58] <indypende> someone know something like kuake for GNOME?
[02:58] <jdub> indypende: describe it
[02:58] <esj> drcode: first, use the basic install process even to you by the .deb package from the ubuntu repository
[02:59] <drcode> I know
[02:59] <esj> then look look for general socks5 instructions and use that to modify the baseline configuration
[02:59] <drcode> but socks 5 , any one know good server on l inux
[02:59] <indypende> jdub, kuake.. pressing F12 on the desltop a terminal descend from the top of the screen...
[02:59] <Jowi> !info kuake
[02:59] <DuXia> hi
[02:59] <ubotu> kuake: (Console which looks like Quake game console), section universe/kde, is optional. Version: 0.3-2build1 (breezy), Packaged size: 44 kB, Installed size: 248 kB
[02:59] <esj> I wish I could give you more specifics, but it's been almost a decade since I've seen any call for that particular package
[02:59] <DuXia> anyone's free? i need some help
[03:00] <Jowi> hehe, cool
[03:00] <redguy||work> !ask
[03:00] <jdub> indypende: ah, that's right - not that i know of, though you could hook it kuake up in gnome, i'm sure
[03:00] <esj> don't we all (need some help)
[03:00] <gnomefreak> DuXia, ask in the room if someone knows they will answer
[03:00] <redguy||work> darn
[03:00] <DuXia> how do i install a mail server?
[03:00] <jdub> indypende: wouldn't be a tough hack to do the same thing with gnome/vte
[03:00] <DuXia> i tried postfix + courier but failed
[03:00] <esj> DuXia
[03:01] <DuXia> now i am trying hula project
[03:01] <indypende> jdub, i will try find it on google
[03:01] <DuXia> but cannot seem to send mail to outside world
[03:01] <esj> DuXia: is not a the project but I think you want with the wrong components
[03:01] <indypende> jdub, my question it's only for a fast and sure reply!
[03:01] <esj> postfix is fine but courier is way too complicated for most people
[03:01] <indypende> thanks
[03:01] <ubu_on_epia> Jowi, thx, got the config and image. /lib/modules folder <IP_ADDRESS>-epia is correct?
[03:01] <esj> I would recommend postfix and dovecot
[03:01] <DuXia> when i install postfix, i can send email thru php mail function
[03:02] <DuXia> but i cannot test the connection using telnet
[03:02] <DuXia> any idea why? i got stuck at the mail from: command
[03:02] <esj> the port 25 connection?
[03:02] <DuXia> yup.. telnet localhost 25
[03:02] <DuXia> then when i type mail from:, the entire screen froze
[03:02] <DuXia> cannot even exit
[03:03] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: huh? /lib/modules what?
[03:03] <esj> I don't think the screen froze.  I think what happened was the system was probably waiting for DNS resolution
[03:03] <DuXia> oh.. so how shld i resolve it?
[03:03] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: yes, correct
[03:03] <esj> if you had typed the telnet escape sequence, you would have returned back to the command prompt
[03:04] <esj> first test would be to make sure DNS is working properly both internally and externally
[03:04] <DuXia> what is the escape sequence for telnet?
[03:04] <esj> host is the first level command
[03:04] <thegladiator> hi
[03:04] <ubu_on_epia> The modules-folder which goes with this bzImage .. mine is <IP_ADDRESS>-epia... I can#t boot ur image if I don't have the proper modules-folder installed, of course
[03:04] <DuXia> and how to test my DNS?
[03:04] <esj> you are told the escape sequence when you first type telnet commands
[03:04] <redguy|work> DuXia: AFAIR ctrl-[
[03:04] <thegladiator> i am getting a error
[03:04] <thegladiator> i cant mount cd rooms
[03:04] <thegladiator> Error: libhal_ctx_init: (null): (null)
[03:04] <DuXia> oh ok.. i didnt notice it
[03:05] <thegladiator> i could mount it a while back
[03:05] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: the bzImage is your /vmlinuz file
[03:05] <DuXia> so how do i test my DNS?
[03:05] <esj> testing DNS host, dig are good options
[03:05] <ubu_on_epia> i know,
[03:05] <redguy|work> a cd room?
[03:05] <esj> test addresses both internal and external
[03:05] <thegladiator> yes cd rom
[03:05] <thegladiator> sorry
[03:05] <ubu_on_epia> ok, let me put it in place and have a test drive...
[03:05] <DuXia> wat is the command to use?
[03:05] <esj> host or dig
[03:06] <esj> as in host Google.com
[03:06] <thegladiator> the cd used to work when i installed the machine
[03:06] <DuXia> u mean both are valid tools?
[03:06] <esj> or dig yahoo.com
[03:06] <thegladiator> the error now i get is Error: libhal_ctx_init: (null): (null)
[03:06] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: the .config goes to your source dir. if you followed the wiki it should be in /home/user/linux-2.6.12-epia/linux-2.6.12
[03:06] <esj> yes, both are valid tools.  host is simple, dig is complicated
[03:06] <K-Rich> Can anyone tell me the kernel version on a fresh breezy install?
[03:06] <gnomefreak> 2.6.9 i think
[03:07] <DuXia> so that means if i can resolve using host, then my DNS is working?
[03:07] <drazq> hi all! :)
[03:07] <thegladiator> can someone help me with mounting a cd rom ?
[03:07] <jdub> K-Rich: 2.6.12
[03:07] <thegladiator> its not mounting
[03:07] <gnomefreak> jdub,  no it isnt
[03:07] <thegladiator> Error: libhal_ctx_init: (null): (null)
[03:07] <K-Rich> can't be 2.6.9
[03:07] <momo> hello again friendly helper guys
[03:07] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: or actually /home/user/epia-kernel/linux-2.6.12
[03:07] <gnomefreak> 2.6.10 is the upgraded kernel version for breezy
[03:07] <jdub> gnomefreak: that's hoary
[03:07] <esj> yes, if you can resolve using host, your DNS is working
[03:08] <DuXia> if cannot, wat is the problem?
[03:08] <nickrud> gnomefreak, 2.6.12-10 you mean
[03:08] <DuXia> is it becoz my DNS servers are not configured properly?
[03:08] <thegladiator> ny experts in cd rom mounting ?
[03:08] <thegladiator> what is the cause of this error ?
[03:08] <momo> i need help changing my screen resolution. the gui applet only offers 680x480@60hz. I've browsed by xorg.conf file but haven't found a problem.
[03:08] <esj> not sure.  I would first start by testing from end to addresses on the machine
[03:08] <thegladiator> Error: libhal_ctx_init: (null): (null) ?
[03:08] <Jowi> !tell momo about fixresolution
[03:08] <gnomefreak> ok sorry kernel version for breezy freash is 2.6.12-9
[03:08] <esj> then I would start testing from addresses on the machine to addresses external to the machine
[03:08] <thegladiator> momo > try gnome-display-properties
[03:08] <willii> hi all
[03:09] <Jowi> !tell momo about resolution
[03:09] <Jowi> ah
[03:09] <K-Rich> thanks
[03:09] <thegladiator> Jowi, do you know why cd rom is not mounting?
[03:09] <augustin> hello
[03:09] <esj> that's about where I would go at this point
[03:09] <willii> I have lokking for a ssh-server howto for unbuntu -breezy badger
[03:09] <DuXia> so if i cannot resolve, then how do i remedy the problem?
[03:09] <Jowi> thegladiator: what error you get?
[03:09] <momo> i'm afraid the applet only offers 640x480. this must be  amistake
[03:09] <thegladiator> Jowi, Error: libhal_ctx_init: (null): (null)
[03:09] <esj> if you cannot get to resolve, I would look at the settings in /etc/resolv.conf
[03:09] <thegladiator> Jowi, my wild is guess is it has to do with HAL
[03:09] <augustin> anyone knows how i can force a Java program to use a character set different from the default system one ? i want it to launch using the Western one instead of UTF-8
[03:09] <esj> make sure they point to valid name servers.
[03:09] <Jowi> thegladiator: hal error?
[03:09] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi: Ok, I've set up ur kernel, and changed the xmodule back to via... x-ing fingers for a reboot
[03:10] <thegladiator> Jowi, when i sometimes log in as root i get some hal error
[03:10] <esj> If you are using DHCP, you are probably getting valid name servers but you never can tell
[03:10] <Jowi> thegladiator: no idea
[03:10] <thegladiator> Jowi, not sure Error: libhal_ctx_init: (null): (null)
[03:10] <ThePyromaniac> hey, how do you do remote desktoping? the link it gives just says localhost and stuff
[03:11] <esj> by the way, people may tell you to use a static IP address for servers but if you use DHCP with allocations bound to your Mac address, it's just as good and many times better
[03:11] <DuXia> my first dns server is the ip address of my router.. is it correct? or shld i use the dns server provided by my isp?
[03:11] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: if i were you, you should copy the .config, make, sudo make modules_install and sudo cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /vmlinuz
[03:11] <esj> unless your router is also a DNS proxy (such as ipcop), that's a problem
[03:12] <redguy||work> DuXia: that depends if you have a DNS server in your router
[03:12] <drazq> Wireless problem: I've installed ndiswrapper and the winxp drivers for my usb wireless dongle (sys & inf). but when I do an "iwconfig" I don't see wlan0 there .. just eth0 etc. with "no wireless extensions." .. anyone know what the problem might be?
[03:12] <esj> what type of router do you have?
[03:12] <DuXia> speedtouch
[03:12] <DuXia> model i think is 570
[03:13] <esj> isn't that a usb adsl router?
[03:13] <redguy||work> sin't that an adsl modem?
[03:13] <hmpedersen> Windows just killed itself on my computer..
[03:13] <webwolf_27> hmpedersen, good riddens
[03:14] <DuXia> that's an adsl modem.. but i am connected to it using ethernet cable
[03:14] <mustard5> hmpedersen, maybe it was lonely :)
[03:14] <hmpedersen> Kept changing all my default settings.. So now, it made the decissions for me..
[03:14] <hmpedersen> decission*
[03:14] <DuXia> i test the host command
[03:14] <hmpedersen> Its going out..   It does do DHCP and DNS proxy
[03:15] <hmpedersen> Hey.. Did anyone follow the latest discussion Linus joined in on?
[03:15] <hmpedersen> kde vs. gnome..
[03:15] <bushblowz> i dont like gnome
[03:15] <deltron> xfce :)
[03:15] <deltron> 4 that is
[03:15] <DuXia> ok. so what may be the reason the mail from: froze?
[03:16] <bushblowz> why does my ubuntu 5.10 live cd not let me connect to the internet
[03:16] <esj> how long did you give it?
[03:16] <bushblowz> but it is recognizing my etho
[03:16] <DuXia> ard 1 min or so
[03:16] <DuXia> maybe i try again now
[03:16] <esj> If it's on the order of two minutes or less, wait a bit longer and see what message you get.
[03:16] <DuXia> ok!
[03:16] <Seveas> hmpedersen, -EOLDNEWS
[03:16] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi: Ok, ur bzImage won't boot on my box (probably no reiserfs-support compiled in).... but remarkably the framebuffer doesn't work (have to say vga=0)
[03:16] <DuXia> do u know abt hula project?
[03:17] <esj> also, you may want to look at the mail error logs
[03:17] <esj> and see what the system complains about.
[03:17] <hmpedersen> Seveas, just made it to newz.dk 2 days ago..
[03:17] <esj> what's the hula project?
[03:17] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi: Did u update the bios on ur box (I didi not, so far)
[03:17] <drazq> mustard5: it's an ASUS wireless thing .. apparently it should work on linux (according to the company). They even have drivers source code for linux .. but I did the ndiswrapper thing cause it seemed simpler..
[03:17] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: yeah, i don't use framebuffer at all. no, no bios update.
[03:18] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: and no reiser since i never use it
[03:18] <esj> is that the mail server from Novell?
[03:18] <DuXia> another mail server by novell
[03:18] <DuXia> yup
[03:18] <DuXia> i managed to install it
[03:18] <DuXia> but i dunno how to send external mail from it
[03:18] <DuXia> very hard to configure
[03:18] <esj> I should probably check in with them because I have a very nice antispam system of developed and it needs more public exposure
[03:18] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: make gconfig (or menuconfig) and add the stuff you need. maybe it's the framebuffer that make xorg fail!
[03:18] <mustard5> drazq, hmmm..might be better to try the drivers for linux
[03:19] <mustard5> drazq, I'm going to have a look on the wiki and see what i can find there
[03:19] <stef_ubu_epia> .... hmmm... ok, i'll investigate that further after a meal :-()  Many thanks up to here , we'll have a good addendum to the howto when i figured this one out
[03:19] <hmpedersen> hmm.. i -am- going to miss photoshop, though..
[03:19] <drazq> mustard5: allright, thanks:)
[03:19] <esj> I should figure out how to organize it better so that it's easier to package
[03:20] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: yep, i bet. almost feel like installing breezy fresh and follow my own guide again. but i'm lazy now that it works for me
[03:20] <DuXia> hmm..
[03:20] <hmpedersen> jowi, ur guide?
[03:20] <tRSS> hey guys, can I export my pst to evolution?
[03:20] <Jowi> hmpedersen: yeah
[03:20] <mustard5> drazq, would that come under the category of wireless usb adaptor?
[03:21] <hmpedersen> jowi, link?
[03:21] <DuXia> esj, if i wanna test telnet to port 25, wat host to use?
[03:21] <Jowi> hmpedersen: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ViaEpiaDriHowto
[03:21] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi: that's basically what i did... an u did ur share of work in writing the howto, so it#s fair that someone else is debugging it
[03:21] <hawarit> i installed postgresql with : apt-get install postgresql-8.0; after this psql -d template1 works, but psql -h localhost -d tempalte1 fails (psql: FATAL:  could not open file "/usr/local/pgsql/data/global/1262": No such file or directory)
[03:21] <esj> DuXia: you need to have your local host recognizable to DNS.  You can do this usually through your hosts file
[03:21] <tRSS> guys can I export my exchange pst to evolution?
[03:21] <hawarit> how do i let it look at the correct data directory?
[03:22] <esj> another alternative would be to define your internal network as a valid source for relaying e-mail
[03:22] <drazq> mustard5: I guess so :)
[03:22] <mustard5> drazq, I've looked over this link...it has wireless usb adapters at the bottom, but I dont see your hardware https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards?highlight=%28wireless%29
[03:22] <esj> then you can try sending mail externally.
[03:22] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: tell you what, i have some free space on the disk. while you eat i will have a go to see. i still wont enable framebuffer though :)
[03:22] <esj> But I seriously think you want to go internal host to an internal host for source and destination addresses.
[03:22] <mustard5> drazq, that doesnt mean its not supported..just not documented as supported :)
[03:22] <stef_ubu_epia> Jowi: I will compile a new kernel with ur config (adapted to my needs) and have lunch then
[03:23] <esj> So tasked to make sure that host can find you then try the mail path
[03:23] <stef_ubu_epia> ...while gcc is having code-lunch
[03:23] <DuXia> err..
[03:23] <mustard5> drazq, perhaps if you get it going you might be inclined to document your journey in the wiki ;)
[03:23] <Jowi> stef_ubu_epia: ok, logging off and trying to find my breezy disk. c u in an hour or two
[03:23] <stef_ubu_epia> Cu then :-)
[03:23] <Jowi> bbl guys
[03:23] <DuXia> i have updated my hosts file
[03:23] <DuXia> so which host to ehlo to?
[03:23] <DuXia> when i telnet?
[03:24] <esj> what is the domain name of that host?
[03:24] <mustard5> drazq, there are a number of links on that page too, that might be useful to you.
[03:24] <esj> (two-minute warning, I need to go fix breakfast and leave for an appointment)
[03:24] <drazq> mustard5: Ok, I'll keep trying .. and I'll be sure to add info to the wiki if I get it working :)
[03:24] <DuXia> i am telneting myself
[03:24] <DuXia> telnet localhost 25
[03:25] <esj> no.  That machine must have a domain name is associated with
[03:25] <DuXia> then what do i put it the ehlo command?
[03:25] <mustard5> drazq, k :)
[03:25] <esj> so that it can know what address it sends out e-mail as
[03:25] <DuXia> ya. my domain name is 3sedan.com
[03:25] <esj> for example, my host is  mail.harvee.org
[03:25] <DuXia> so i telnet 3sedan.com?
[03:25] <esj> type this
[03:26] <esj> telnet localhost 25
[03:26] <esj> ehlo junk
[03:26] <DuXia> then?
[03:26] <tRSS> helllooooooo? can I import my exchange (outlook) pst to evolution?
[03:26] <redvelvet> i am using ubuntu on a laptop.  after the screensaver is on for awhile, the screen turns white.  Is there a way to get it to turn off?
[03:26] <esj> mail from<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:26] <DuXia> oh it works!
[03:27] <mustard5> redvelvet, system>>preferences>>screensaver?
[03:27] <esj> rcpt to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:27] <DuXia> wat is junk?
[03:27] <mustard5> redvelvet, I'm assuming you mean turn the screensaver off
[03:27] <esj> in the real world, junk is the domain name of the host contacting your mail server
[03:27] <redvelvet> mustard5, yes I wenr there, the settings appear to be correct.
[03:28] <esj> but quite frankly, it doesn't matter.  The text is just junk
[03:28] <esj> which is why I use junk
[03:28] <redvelvet> i want the screen to turn off after like 20 minutes of screensaver
[03:28] <redvelvet> instead it goes white, very bright
[03:28] <esj> anyway, my time is up.  But I need to leave but I think you are heading in the right direction
[03:29] <DuXia> quit
[03:29] <DuXia> oops.. wrong msg
[03:30] <hmpedersen> well.. Only a few more folders to backup, and windows goes poff.
[03:30] <hmpedersen> poof*
[03:30] <mustard5> redvelvet, hmmmm k..not sure about how to do that
[03:30] <redvelvet> mustard5, I have the prefrenses set to blank after 20 minutes, but going blank doesnt really go blank... its strange if I go to file, go blank it workss
[03:31] <mustard5> redvelvet, do laptops have any bios settings that control power to the screen?
[03:31] <redvelvet> hmm, not really sure.  i just got this for the purpose of seeing how fun it would be to have linux on a laptop. haha
[03:31] <hmpedersen> Most laptops do..
[03:32] <redvelvet> thanks guys, i  will check that out
[03:32] <hmpedersen> I disabled all the power management stuff.. Both in bios and in ubuntu..
[03:32] <mustard5> redvelvet, I dont have much idea myself..but I wondering whether that would create a clash of some kind
[03:32] <k31th> anyone use ispconfig ?
[03:33] <k31th> wats better RSA or DSA ?
[03:33] <redvelvet> yeah, idk.  I think the bios controls are something like, if the power is unplugged (battery) then go to these settings
[03:33] <suerrahotel> hello
[03:33] <mustard5> welcome suerrahotel
[03:34] <redvelvet> wonder where the controls are for a laptop... say if I close the laptop, it hibernates... i dont want it to do that.
[03:34] <suerrahotel> a/s/l
[03:34] <LeeJunFan> yay! almost have my mini ubuntu ready to put on compact flash for my WRAP board based access points!
[03:34] <mustard5> suerrahotel, this is a technical support channel ;)
[03:34] <redvelvet> hehe
[03:34] <suerrahotel> ok
[03:35] <suerrahotel> why is that when you play xbox 360 it freez
[03:35] <soundray> suerrahotel, because it's not running ubuntu.
[03:35] <suerrahotel> ok
[03:35] <hmpedersen> suerrahotel, i dont think thats the correct technical problems :)
[03:35] <redvelvet> hahah
[03:35] <LeeJunFan> that's a feature all microsoft products have.
[03:35] <suerrahotel> well im a ps2 guy
[03:35] <redvelvet> its to give the users a break
[03:36] <suerrahotel> well xbox 360 sucks
[03:36] <hmpedersen> suerrahotel, M$ have identified the problem, and have offered to give all users with defect x360 a new console...
[03:36] <mustard5> suerrahotel, this is a support channel for linux..ubuntu linux in particular
[03:36] <redvelvet> i dont think it will suck once the new HD DVD comes out in them
[03:37] <LeeJunFan> redvelvet: no, it still will.
[03:37] <redvelvet> i hope that this blue-ray hits it big
[03:37] <DuXia> hi.. anyone knows whether dovecot can support virtual users?
[03:37] <redvelvet> leejunfan, it might, I have never played one.  I just like racing games.
[03:37] <hmpedersen> redvelvet, i hope they make a light-version that doesnt draw the power of 5 computers and 2 flatscreen tv's at the same time..
[03:38] <redvelvet> HAHAHHA
[03:38] <hmpedersen> Only then will i consider gettin one..
[03:38] <redvelvet> I have to iron my clothes and go to work, later fellas
[03:39] <hmpedersen> at the moment, my old xbox does what i need it to.. functioning as a good mediabox for tv, playin any video/music i need it to..
[03:39] <hmpedersen> oh..
[03:39] <hmpedersen> right.. done with the backup.. and have been so busy, ive forgotten to write breezy to a disc!
[03:41] <momo> thanks to the guy who sent me a link on the screen res problem. its fixed now!
[03:42] <mustard5> momo well done :)
[03:46] <bazx> how do i make mplayer-plugin the default for embedded wmv's ?, totem tries to play them but fails ?
[03:46] <funkyHat> bazx, right click on one, go to properties, and click on the open with tab at the top
[03:47] <bazx> funkyHat, thanks, but is there a way i can do this from the desktop, ?
[03:47] <funkyHat> select which program you want to open that file type with
[03:48] <Raskall-mob> I am going to install my new server tonight. :) I wonder if all config files from my old hoary server will work in my new breezy server. Only time will tell. :)
[03:48] <funkyHat> I don't think so bazx (the way I described does do the  file TYPE not just that particular file btw)
[03:49] <soundray> There are four different network environments where I use my laptop.   Back to Debian where the shit is called shit at least.
[03:49] <Raskall-mob> soundray: install networkmanager
[03:50] <trappist> what a nice fella.
[03:50] <gnomefreak> lol
[03:50] <soundray> pappy-, you're welcome.
[03:50] <Raskall-mob> soundray: are all four environments wireless?
[03:50] <mustard5> hehehe
[03:50] <soundray> Raskall, no, only one of them.
[03:51] <Raskall-mob> soundray: ok. so why do you need different setup for the three cabled locations?
[03:51] <Raskall-mob> soundray: plug in, get dhcp-lease, start working.
[03:52] <mustard5> rudiz, I'm not sure what you are after
[03:52] <soundray> Raskall-mob, one is static IP (work), one DHCP (home) and one is no-net (on the train).
[03:52] <soundray> Raskall-mob, the fourth is wireless DHCP.
[03:53] <Raskall-mob> soundray: take a look at network manager (sudo apt-cache show network-manager). If that's the same as NetworkManager in Fedora, it's just what you're looking for I think
[03:54] <Raskall-mob> soundray: it's in Universe, btw
[03:54] <soundray> Raskall-mob, thanks, I just installed it.
[03:55] <Raskall-mob> soundray: the network setup tool in breezy actually has "locations" functionality, but I have no idea how to set it up
[03:55] <rudiz> imustard5, i need the wiki instructions for installing some apps
[03:56] <Raskall-mob> I juste have different setups in /etc/network/interfaces that I comment/uncomment as needed and then does ifdown/ifup on the interface
[03:56] <rudiz> mustard5, wiki.ubuntu.com/Formats....
[03:56] <mochabyte> is it possible to install a gtk theme engine without root acess?
[03:56] <blitznl> I want to build some app but get a "X11/extensions/Print.h : No such file or dir.." any idea which package provides this?
[03:56] <trappist> Raskall-mob: check out the 'whereami' package.
[03:57] <mustard5> rudiz, like restrictedformats?
[03:57] <rudiz> y
[03:57] <rudiz> thnx
[03:57] <soundray> Raskall-mob, I've tried locations, it never seems to do what I expect. Also, it's not automatic.
[03:57] <trappist> *cough* whereami
[03:58] <soundray> trappist, thanks, I'll look at that too.
[03:58] <Raskall-mob> soundray: automatic is difficult to do, I think. Unless you can do something you can configure with grub. But then you'd have to boot every time you change locations
[03:58] <shanonx> how do you force a program to quit? .. like if it is freezing up
[03:59] <blitznl> sorry found it, libxp-dev
[03:59] <mochabyte> anyone know if its possible to install a gtk-engine w/o root?
[03:59] <thoreauputic> shanonx: open a terminal and type  killall <programname>
[04:00] <linkd> i dont think so
[04:00] <linkd> its a system change :/
[04:00] <mochabyte> doh
[04:00] <linkd> shanonx: kill -9 PID
[04:00] <shanonx> thanks Thoreauputic
[04:00] <Raskall-mob> whereami looks cool
[04:00] <thoreauputic> shanonx: no worries :)
[04:00] <shanonx> whats that kill -9 do?
[04:01] <linkd> blah i didnt see thoreauputic's reply
[04:01] <linkd> it kills it properly
[04:01] <thoreauputic> shanonx: kill -9 is a "no second chance" kill ;)
[04:01] <linkd> sorta
[04:01] <Raskall-mob> soundray: but why is the train no-net? ;) I am online 3 hours on the train every day
[04:01] <linkd> what he said ^
[04:01] <thoreauputic> linkd: actually kill -9 is a last resort
[04:01] <soundray> Raskall-mob, whenever I boot in a new location, I have trouble with gnome-session. So I login on a text console, run a script to exchange /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf... annoying.
[04:01] <linkd> thoreauputic: yes i know how signals work
[04:01] <thoreauputic> linkd: OK :)
[04:02] <jono> anyone know if there will be a 2.6.12 release for breezy?
[04:02] <soundray> Raskall-mob, on-train-line?
[04:02] <Raskall-mob> soundray: enter your hostname as an alias to <IP_ADDRESS> in /etc/hosts
[04:02] <Raskall-mob> soundray: then your hostname is always resolvable
[04:03] <Ng> jono: it's running 2.6.12 already
[04:03] <soundray> Raskall-mob, I just assumed that it was...
[04:03] <Raskall-mob> soundray: and gnome-session will not have problems. I alternate between work (cabled), train (gprs/edge) and home (wlan) without any trouble with gnome-session
[04:03] <jono> Ng, oh shit, so it is
[04:03] <Ng> jono: slick ;)
[04:03] <jono> Ng, trying to get a dvb card working, y'see
[04:04] <soundray> Raskall-mob, how do you connect to GPRS, via a phone or PCMCIA card?
[04:04] <hmpedersen> right.. ununtu is installing on my pc now :)
[04:04] <hmpedersen> Finally
[04:04] <Raskall-mob> soundray: phone. bluetooth. So I just keep my phone in my pocket and dial.
[04:04] <thoreauputic> jono: loved your Jeff Waugh vid, mate ;)
[04:04] <Ng> jono: cool, which one?
[04:04] <Raskall-mob> soundray: use the gnome-ppp for dialing.
[04:04] <hmpedersen> no more Bills on that computer :D
[04:04] <Ng> jono: I just set up a hauppauge nova-t a couple of weeks ago, it rocks :)
[04:05] <jono> Ng, is that the connexant chip one?
[04:05] <Ng> jono: yes
[04:05] <jono> Ng, woo! what did you do to get it working
[04:06] <mod> kak ?
[04:06] <mod> how are you ?
[04:06] <mod> slt !
[04:07] <soundray> Raskall-mob, back in a few minutes...
[04:07] <Ng> jono: well the kernel as-is seemed to include enough drivers to get it going, so I rebuilt vdr and xine packages from http://www.youmustbejoking.demon.co.uk/progs.sid.html
[04:07] <abarbaccia_> hey is there any command to execute from the command line that just maximizes a window - like if i have an instance of xchat running and i click the icon it just maximizes the window
[04:07] <Ng> jono: although you may be going for mythtv or something
[04:07] <Ng> jono: snag the dvb-utils package, you can use the scan and dvbstream tools in that to get a channel list and try and grab an mpeg stream
[04:09] <jono> Ng, I am using mythtv - how do I use scan to search for my signal?
[04:09] <chasnam> hello, cout somebody help me with the following eclipse problem : I just installed ubuntu en the eclipse platform, and when I go to my Java preferences and I click on Compilers I get the following error....Plug-in org.eclipse.jdt.ui was unable to load class org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.preferences.CompliancePreferencePage.
[04:09] <chasnam> ... And I'm also unable to start a new Java Project.. Java version is now 1.4.2.. I just installed ubuntu today.. Any idea's ? Thanks in Advance
[04:10] <Ng> jono: /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/README.scan
[04:10] <Ng> ;)
[04:10] <Ng> basically you just give it the file for the transmitter you're using and away it goes
[04:10] <hmpedersen> mythtv?
[04:11] <stef_ubu_epia>
[04:11] <jono> Ng, I get main:1882: FATAL: failed to open '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0': 19 No such device
[04:11] <Ng> jono: is there anything in /dev/dvb?
[04:12] <Ng> maybe you have a slightly different hardware version and do need a newer kernel or something
[04:12] <jono> yep adapter0 through 3
[04:12] <j2daosh> whats up people?
[04:13] <e-head> whaz up sucker ?
[04:13] <stef_ubu_epia> jono: does ur card need firmware at boottime and is the proper firmware file in place (usr/lib/hotplug/firmware)

[04:13] <e-head> :)
[04:13] <j2daosh> not a whole lot

[04:13] <tRSS> Guys, i need help badly. I have configured my evolution for our win2k3 exchange server. everything is working like a charm, except for the fact that it won't load the address book from excahgne server?!
[04:13] <tRSS> any help would be appreciated!
[04:13] <j2daosh> am i supposed to mount it?
[04:13] <e-head> j2daosh: I've never done that.
[04:14] <j2daosh> lol why cant it just detect plug and play and set it up lol
[04:14] <e-head> It is probably some sort of kernel module driver or something.
[04:14] <e-head> j2daosh: ha !  not on linux.  everything is a little bit painful, but good for you.
[04:14] <j2daosh> lol good for me? lol not yet... but im trying
[04:15] <e-head> Hey people, I have a question.
[04:15] <jono> hmmm
[04:15] <e-head> When I do a "apt-get update", or try to install via an "apt-get install", it complains about a GPG key.
[04:15] <e-head> I get this message:
[04:15] <j2daosh> i managed to get the sound working... my ntfs drives are read and write now... and i can play mp3's... i just need to get ssh working, webcam installed, and more decoders for movie files... oh and get firefox off my box and just use mozilla
[04:15] <e-head> W: GPG error: http://archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[04:16] <jono> Ng, the perms on /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 is crw-rw---- - is that right?
[04:16] <e-head> j2daosh: you're doing pretty good then.
[04:16] <e-head> j2daosh: are you using that captive ntfs driver ?
[04:16] <j2daosh> well ive only had this os for about 6 days now...
[04:16] <hmpedersen> ahh.. ubuntu booting on pc for the first time :)
[04:16] <e-head> even my ntfs drives are only read.
[04:16] <hmpedersen> Beautiful sight :D
[04:16] <Ng> jono: depends which user you ran scan as I guess
[04:16] <j2daosh> really?
[04:16] <Ng> jono: just use sudo for now
[04:16] <j2daosh> dont know why i can do it then...
[04:16] <e-head> Anybody got any clues to why my package/apt keys from some sources are screwed up ?
[04:17] <Amaranth> !gpg
[04:17] <soundray> Raskall, still here?
[04:17] <ubotu> [gpg]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GPGKey or http://www.linuxgazette.com/node/8746
[04:17] <hmpedersen> now if it wasnt so slow.. (due to the motherboard/hdd incompatibility issues...)
[04:17] <Amaranth> bah
[04:17] <Amaranth> !gpgerr
[04:17] <ubotu> somebody said gpgerr was a GPG-related error that sometimes occur when accessing the Ubuntu archives; it can usually be solved by typing "sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*Release*" (without the quotes!) in a terminal
[04:17] <redguy|work> which one is better: to have a dvd recorder as "slave" with a hdd on ide0 with a 80 wire cable, or as "master" on ide1 with a 40 wire cable and no hard disk?
[04:17] <n9uib> any video card guru's here ?
[04:17] <e-head> thanks ubotu.
[04:17] <j2daosh> redguy... no hard drive on opitcal cable
[04:18] <jono> Ng, no luck as sudo
[04:18] <n9uib> got a borked system and dont know how to fix it
[04:18] <j2daosh> and that doesn't matter what o/s ur using
[04:18] <Ng> jono: hrm, offhand I'm not sure, I'm sort of at work at the moment, so I don't have my notes to hand of what I did
[04:18] <redguy|work> j2daosh: you sure? notice the difference in cables as well
[04:18] <e-head> ubotu: I take it that is the location of the master package lists on the computer ?  Just delete them all and let apt-get update download new ones ?
[04:18] <ubotu> e-head: I think you lost me on that one
[04:19] <jono> Ng, /var/log/messages seems to suggest cx88xx: disagrees about version of symbol tveeprom_hauppauge_analog
[04:19] <Amaranth> e-head: ubotu is a bot :)
[04:19] <Amaranth> e-head: but yeah
[04:19] <e-head> ohh !  ha !
[04:19] <e-head> thanks Amaranth.
[04:19] <Ng> jono: erk
[04:19] <xored> JA ICH CHEATE UND ?
[04:19] <redguy|work> !de
[04:19] <ubotu> it has been said that de is Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu und Kubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de resp. #kubuntu-de
[04:19] <redguy|work> ?
[04:19] <j2daosh> its just a rule of thumb red
[04:20] <j2daosh> something to do with the mobo
[04:20] <e-head> 2.6.11 is the most recent kernel ?
[04:20] <n9uib> anyone ????
[04:20] <soundray> !anyone
[04:20] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and YOU decide? <hint>
[04:21] <soundray> n9uib, what's the problem?
[04:22] <llamuh> Anyone feel like helping a somewhat noob get his Orinoco Gold wifi card working on breezy? ;)
[04:22] <n9uib> well, i installed a geforce fx5500 in my dell 2350... and not when i try boot ubuntu, i get a kernal panic
[04:22] <n9uib> not syncing- killing init...... and it stalls at hotplug at that point
[04:23] <soundray> n9uib, can you boot the rescue kernel?
[04:23] <n9uib> i had the system working with the intergrated card
[04:23] <n9uib> ummmmmm.....   recovery mode ????
[04:23] <soundray> n9uib, ummmm, yes.
[04:23] <superneo> does ubuntu have the proper drivers for my audigy soundcard ??
[04:23] <n9uib> still does the same thing
[04:24] <soundray> n9uib, can you enter the BIOS setup?
[04:24] <sethk> n9uib, try adding vga=ask to the kernel boot line
[04:24] <Ng> jono: I think http://www.ethics-gradient.net/myth/mythdvb.html is the guide I used to get a channel list
[04:24] <n9uib> yeah, i can get inot the bois
[04:24] <n9uib> well, i am in winders now
[04:24] <trappist> superneo: yes
[04:25] <eksajm> why wont adept accept my root password?
[04:25] <soundray> n9uib, note sethk's advice. Also check the BIOS to see if you can switch the video default between integrated and add-on card.
[04:25] <superneo> is there a way to use the creative proggys on ubuntu then trappist ?
[04:25] <eksajm> do i have to be in certain group?
[04:26] <superneo> creative playcentre
[04:26] <n9uib> well, i can use the intregated card... this is a add on that i ust installed about 1 1/2 weeks ago
[04:26] <trappist> superneo: they might work in wine, but the drivers are not creative drivers.
[04:26] <sethk> n9uib, it's possible you have to replace the video driver in the initrd file
[04:27] <soundray> n9uib, did Ubuntu ever boot with the add-on in place?
[04:27] <llamuh> i tried loading the XP drivers that i obtained from Agere for the orinoco gold using ndiswrapper but it claims 'No Vendor' for the INF.  should i just try to find some other windows driver elsewhere or what?  also, would a 2K driver work?  i have no experience with ndiswrapper.
[04:27] <n9uib> so, i need to  switch back over to the intragated card and do this and then see if it will boot
[04:28] <n9uib> no, it would never boot with the new add on
[04:28] <n9uib> see, how weird this is
[04:29] <n9uib> bee driving me batty
[04:29] <eksajm> when i use adept, does the user have to be in a certain group? cause when i try to do it with my user, adept wont accept the password?
[04:29] <Haroldo16> #ubuntu-pt
[04:29] <windmill> hi, encrypted dvds won't play back on my laptop but unencrypted ones will, what do I need to install?
[04:30] <windmill> I have got libdvdcss installed
[04:30] <trappist> how did you install it
[04:30] <hmpedersen> right.. now i see a grey screen with alot of text.. starting with call trace..
[04:30] <eksajm> when i use adept, does the user have to be in a certain group? cause when i try to do it with my user, adept wont accept the password!
[04:30] <windmill> apt-get intall libdvdcss2
[04:30] <trappist> windmill: try sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh
[04:30] <hmpedersen> oh..
[04:31] <llamuh> guess my question is too noobish.. or everyone is too busy heh
[04:31] <hmpedersen> will the i386 install if i have an amd 64 cpu?
[04:31] <soundray> n9uib, you may have to play with the settings in the BIOS, and possibly reset the configuration to exclude any conflicts.
[04:31] <soundray> hmpedersen, yes.
[04:31] <trappist> llamuh: sorry, I've never used ndiswrapper.  have you tried the linux native orinoco drivers?
[04:32] <hmpedersen> soundray, then this doesnt make any sence..  It installed fine.. No errors..
[04:32] <hmpedersen> But now it wont finish booting..
[04:32] <n9uib> sound:  thanks for the push in the right direction.... i have never had a kernal panic problem before.... this is all pretty new...lol
[04:32] <eksajm> anyone uses the adept package to install thigns?
[04:32] <hmpedersen> no.. it didnt finish installing..
[04:32] <windmill> trappist that downgraded it
[04:33] <hmpedersen> hmm.. configuring cupsys.. that didnt take more than a second on the laptop..
[04:33] <llamuh> trappist: no i havent because on the forums people acted like it was no problem to use the windows drivers for this card.  i have downloaded the linux drivers from agere but they dont seem to like the pcmcia "drivers" (for lack of a better word) that come with ubuntu.  i guess ill try the linux ones again and tell you the exact error
[04:33] <llamuh> thanks anyways..
[04:35] <norskfjord> hello
[04:35] <norskfjord> my apt-get is broken

[04:36] <norskfjord> {anthrax}

[04:36] <norskfjord> yes, it's excellent
[04:36] <norskfjord> and blackbox
[04:36] <norskfjord> I actually run blackbox
[04:36] <norskfjord> but it

[04:36] <{anthrax}> ok
[04:36] <norskfjord> easy
[04:36] <{anthrax}> :D we like easy lol
[04:36] <norskfjord> sudo apt-get install blackbox

[04:36] <norskfjord> then look in the menu for blackbox
[04:37] <norskfjord> and it will start that wm
[04:37] <{anthrax}> k
[04:37] <eksajm> norskfjord, hwo do you choose which to run if you have fluxbox and balckbox installd?
[04:37] <MrFarts> anyone here know about envision monitors ?
[04:37] <eksajm> oh ;)
[04:37] <eksajm> srty ;)
[04:37] <norskfjord> what wm are you using now?
[04:37] <norskfjord> should be under window managers
[04:37] <{anthrax}> brb
[04:38] <eksajm> i have kde, but i was just wondering. pure intrest ;)
[04:38] <cgnet> how can I increase the speed of my browser?
[04:38] <_jason> cgnet, which browser would that be
[04:39] <cgnet> firefox 1.0.7
[04:39] <DJ_Necrogami> how do i find out what is running on port 80 because something is blocking my Web Server from starting
[04:39] <_jason> cgnet, http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html#id2523397
[04:40] <trappist> DJ_Necrogami: it's almost certainly your webserver
[04:40] <Kian> Hm. I chose to format my whole disk, and it set-up ekt3, but i got no question of making av swap-disk... Does it make swap itself?
[04:40] <DJ_Necrogami> trappist, its not runing
[04:40] <iGen> DJ_Necrogami: nmap yourself or check you're firewall
[04:40] <cgnet> I will check it now _jason
[04:40] <trappist> DJ_Necrogami: netstat -ntlp
[04:40] <DJ_Necrogami> ps aux | grep lighttpd shows nothing
[04:41] <soundray> norskfjord, I found an article that may have the answer to your apt problem.
[04:41] <soundray> norskfjord, http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=05/10/12/1952217
[04:41] <DJ_Necrogami> nothing on 80
[04:41] <trappist> DJ_Necrogami: what error is lighttpd giving you
[04:41] <DJ_Necrogami> necrogami@serv1:~$ lighttpd -f /etc/lighttpd.conf
[04:41] <DJ_Necrogami> 2005-12-15 10:41:41: (network.c.265) can't bind to port 80 Permission denied
[04:42] <linuX|BowlingX> hi@all, i have 3 windows (ntfs) partitions and iam unable to mount them, even as I add the options "ro,user,auto" to fstab, any suggestions?
[04:42] <DJ_Necrogami> oh duh
[04:42] <DJ_Necrogami> retard me forgot i need root to run that
[04:42] <trappist> DJ_Necrogami: permission denied is a little weird.  if it's taken usually it'd say socket in use.  does fuser -v -n tcp 80 say anything?
[04:42] <rosen> does anyone know what port 137 is used for ?
[04:42] <DJ_Necrogami> i was running it as a user not root
[04:42] <trappist> oh wait I forgot that too :)
[04:43] <trappist> rosen: grep 137 /etc/services
[04:43] <gundu> hi
[04:43] <linuX|BowlingX> hi
[04:44] <nox_ghost> I wrote a script that compiles the newest <IP_ADDRESS> kernel. Someone wants to give it a try? http://ilunix.org/scripts/CompileKernel26144.sh
[04:44] <gundu> how can I find out what for a desktop-resolution my laptop supports ?
[04:44] <linuX|BowlingX> manual
[04:44] <rosen> trappist, huh ?
[04:44] <gundu> havent :(
[04:44] <gundu> lost it
[04:44] <gundu> :/
[04:44] <soundray> gundu, 1024x768
[04:44] <Ricker> hello
[04:44] <trappist> rosen: /etc/services is a fairly comprehensive list of what services run on what ports.  type 'grep 137 /etc/services' in a console to see what it says.
[04:45] <DJ_Necrogami> gundu, google!
[04:45] <soundray> gundu, it's a guess, but very likely.
[04:45] <gundu> hm ok
[04:45] <rosen> trappist, I get this return - bash: greb: command not found
[04:45] <DJ_Necrogami> gundu, http://linux-laptops.net
[04:45] <soundray> gundu, is this for setting up X?
[04:45] <trappist> rosen: grep.
[04:45] <rosen> lol
[04:45] <rosen> sorrrry
[04:46] <DJ_Necrogami> gundu, http://www.linux-laptop.net/ -s
[04:46] <DJ_Necrogami> i added a s in the last url
[04:46] <gundu> soundray yes, want to set my desktop resolution higher
[04:46] <soundray> !fixres
[04:46] <ubotu> somebody said fixres was http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:46] <trappist> gundu: shoot for 1280x1024.  if that doesn't work, it's probably 1024x768
[04:47] <Ricker> when I create an appache website folder in my /var/www/ folder, do I need to set certain permissions in order for the users to execute scripts correctly?  I am trying to install wordpress and I have the wordpress folder in my /var/www/ folder and it's not working correctly.
[04:47] <Zambba> I've installed the minimal install of Ubuntu. Now I've heard about the Ubuntu Server which has "server-orientated kernel". How can I install that kernel-image to my home server and what benefit do I get if i do so?
[04:47] <soundray> gundu, do you have the diagonal size in inches?
[04:47] <gundu> trappist, DJ_Necrogami, soundray thats mine: http://rcswww.urz.tu-dresden.de/~s2890409/linux_maxdata_eco4500a.html
[04:47] <gundu> 15' ?
[04:47] <trappist> Ricker: what kind of scripts?  is it perl or what?
[04:48] <eksajm> how do i add support for synaptic in sudo?
[04:48] <trappist> eksajm: I don't understand your question.
[04:48] <Ricker> trappist, hmm I'm not sure what wordpress is written in to be honest.
[04:48] <_jason> eksajm, what do you mean
[04:48] <DJ_Necrogami>  gundu, i'd go with 1024x768
[04:48] <gundu> yes i already have this
[04:48] <Ricker> I'm thinking it's php
[04:48] <_jason> gundu, how old is the laptop
[04:48] <eksajm> trappist, well when i try to start synaptic it wont accept the correct rpot password. just says it is wrong
[04:48] <eksajm> but its not
[04:49] <gundu> but for me the resolution is too small :/
[04:49] <trappist> Ricker: unless it's php it's probably a cgi, in which case you need to put it in /usr/lib/cgi-bin
[04:49] <gundu> _jason, about half a year
[04:49] <_jason> eksajm, are you using your root password?
[04:49] <DJ_Necrogami> _jason, Processor:  	AMD Turion64 3000 (1.6 GHz, ML30, 35W)
[04:49] <eksajm> _jason, yeah? should i not?
[04:49] <_jason> eksajm, arg, i meant 'user' apssword
[04:49] <trappist> eksajm: you're giving it the root password, or your password?
[04:49] <bipolar> eksajm: it's not asking for a root password. it's asking for yours
[04:49] <DRAGON_Ultra> is your cap lock on?
[04:49] <eksajm> rioot password
[04:49] <DJ_Necrogami> _jason, his laptop isnt old at all
[04:49] <linuX|BowlingX> no one knows how to access a ntfs partition as a user?
[04:49] <eksajm> oh!
[04:49] <_jason> DJ_Necrogami, indeed
[04:49] <pesco> Waah, there is no uqm-0.4.0 in multiverse! This is horrible! ;-)
[04:49] <eksajm> wtf? can i use synaptic on my own account?
[04:50] <iGen> no good :(
[04:50] <Ricker> trappist, ok so then I'll need to edit an apache config file to point to that folder in my /usr/lib/cgi-bin dir?
[04:50] <bipolar> eksajm: ubuntu has no root password by default.
[04:50] <soundray> gundu, what resolution are you using now?
[04:50] <eksajm> why is it then asking for a password?
[04:50] <linuX|BowlingX> still studied the wiki :D
[04:50] <_jason> ubotu, tell eksajm about sudo
[04:50] <bipolar> eksajm: look at the man page for sudo
[04:50] <trappist> linuX|BowlingX: add 'umask=000' and/or 'uid=1000' to the /etc/fstab line with your ntfs partition
[04:50] <eksajm> bipolar, yeah okeyt thanks..
[04:50] <trappist> Ricker: I haven't looked but I'm pretty sure it's already there as a ScriptAlias.  may just need to comment it out.
[04:50] <eksajm> be back later with more questions then ;)
[04:51] <windmill> my totem-xine doesn't want to use libdvdcss :((
[04:51] <gundu> soundray, 1024x786
[04:51] <gundu> sorry had givven you the wrong link, right is http://www.komputilo.org/~joostje/linux/maxdata/
[04:51] <iGen> eksajm, the sudo password is you're user password
[04:51] <linuX|BowlingX> ok, thanks
[04:51] <_jason> gundu, can't you just call your manufacture and find out the resolution?  Otherwise, just try the most common and see which one looks the best, that will be your native resolution :)
[04:51] <soundray> gundu, according to http://www.maxdata.de/news_press/Presseberichte/2005/03/21_notebook.html, that's all you will get from this laptop.
[04:51] <ofir> can rpm files can be opend in ubuntu ?
[04:52] <trappist> ofir: they can be converted to .debs with alien
[04:52] <iGen> gundu, should say on the back of the monitor
[04:52] <_jason> ofir, yes, but it is preferrable that you find an ubuntu package
[04:52] <Ricker> trappist.  ok cool.  the thing that i"m still frustrated with on linux is I NEVER know where to put what files.  Is there a quick & dirty white paper explaining where to put things in linux, and why?
[04:52] <_jason> ubotu, tell ofir about alien
[04:52] <anthrax> can anyone help with gdesklets?
[04:52] <ofir> ok
[04:52] <soundray> iGen, you clearly haven't followed the conversation.
[04:53] <SanderD> How dangerous is it to try out Dapper? Do I help the developers if I do that (and report bugs etc.)?
[04:53] <trappist> Ricker: there might be, but mostly it's something you just get a feel for.  the cgi-bin being in /usr/lib is a little new to me, but it's always outside the web tree.
[04:53] <Ricker> trappist:  I was afraid you were going to say that.  ;)
[04:53] <ofir> can wine work with ubutu ?
[04:53] <anthrax> yes
[04:53] <trappist> SanderD: it would help you be helpful, but if you don't feel very confident about being able to restore a busted system, don't do it.  it's unsupported and unstable.
[04:53] <trappist> ofir: yes
[04:54] <nox_ghost> SanderD, yeah, you can help the developers by reporting bugs. You can encouter problems that in order fix them you have to rewrite part of the code and recompile it to get it work.
[04:54] <gundu> maybe i should try it ..
[04:54] <pesco> Seriously though, I have no knowledge about the debian package system, but if it's not too complicated I want to help by turning an existing Debian deb into one for multiverse. What do I do?
[04:54] <gundu> whats the next resolution after 1024x786
[04:54] <jbroome> 1280.1024
[04:54] <jbroome> and it's 768
[04:54] <nox_ghost> guerby, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. you don't have to write the resolutions yourself.
[04:54] <ofir> thanks
[04:55] <SanderD> trappist: do you mean the OS can get busted, or can it break my computer (when I'm using wrong drivers or something like that)?
[04:55] <SanderD> nox_ghost: and if I can't really write code?
[04:55] <soundray> gundu, you will never go above the native resolution of your laptop, unless you want to use panning.
[04:55] <anthrax> i get this error when running ./configure on gdesklets.... checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool
[04:55] <nox_ghost> SanderD, So you will be stuck with a system that can't boot, for example.
[04:55] <balor> Are the special function keys on my laptop (for screen selection etc..) handled by the kernel or xorg?
[04:55] <pesco> balor: most probably neither.
[04:55] <Zoohouse> Why is it that when I want to uninstall programs like gnome-games that uninstalling those packages will also uninstall gonome-desktop ?????
[04:56] <SanderD> nox_ghost: okay, but then I could always reinstall ubuntu...
[04:56] <nox_ghost> anthrax, You don't have a perl module needed for this operation. Why don't you install gdesklets from the repos ?
[04:56] <windmill> oh no hang on it is trying to use libdvdread but it's failing saying :   libdvdread Invalid main menu IFO (VIDEO_TS.IFO).  why it that???#
[04:56] <anthrax> k
[04:56] <nox_ghost> SanderD, If you have the time and patience, do it.
[04:56] <tty54> can someone send me the ip of a proxy in the US
[04:56] <Ricker> trapper: where do I look for the ScriptAlias reference that you mentioned?
[04:56] <soundray> Zoohouse, yes, but don't worry -- these are metapackages. If you remove gnome-desktop, you won't actually be removing software.
[04:56] <nox_ghost> anthrax, try this sources.list file: http://ilunix.org/scripts/related-files/sources.list
[04:57] <nox_ghost> anthrax, it has gdesklets and much more on it.
[04:57] <Zoohouse> soundray, I did not understand
[04:57] <soundray> Zoohouse, gnome-desktop is a package that contains no software of its own.
[04:57] <ofir> is there a linux that open both rpm and deb ?
[04:58] <imnes> In 5.10, if I create a gnome main menu (not menu bar) and set a custom icon for it, it displays a black arrow Y pixels from the left side of the image.  Any way to disable drawing that?
[04:58] <linkd> not that i know of
[04:58] <trappist> SanderD: it's not likely to damage your hardware.  it's really not very likely to be unbootable, but it's fairly likely, for example, that X will fail to start.
[04:58] <Amaranth> ofir: nope
[04:58] <Amaranth> ofir: they use incompatible backends
[04:58] <Ricker> trappist: where do I look for the ScriptAlias that you mentioned?
[04:58] <Zoohouse> so if I remove kbluetooth it says it will untinsall kubuntu-desktop but my kde desktop will stay put?
[04:58] <anthrax> ill try it
[04:58] <bipolar> I just switched to kubuntu using apt, its there a way I can remove the gnome stuff without apt-get removing package by package?
[04:58] <soundray> Zoohouse, it just depends on other packages, meaning that if you install it, you will have all the luxuries of a desktop system, including somewhat silly games.
[04:58] <SanderD> trappist: okay, I've already had many problems of that kind, so I think I can handle that :-)
[04:58] <tty54> can someone send me the ip of a proxy in the US
[04:59] <trappist> SanderD: awesome, go for it :)
[04:59] <tty54> can someone send me the ip of a proxy in the US
[04:59] <Zoohouse> soundray, i want KDE but not all the stuff that it comes with. Is that another package other then kubuntu?
[04:59] <trappist> tty54: quit repeating yourself.  there are many kinds of proxies.  try being more specific.
[05:00] <tty54> can someone send me the ip of a proxy in the US, all i need is to get to sourceforge, anything will work
[05:00] <aTypical> Morning
[05:00] <_jason> tty54, if you googled for a proxy in the US you'd probably have your answer by now
[05:00] <Amaranth> tty54: most open proxies are banned from sites like that
[05:01] <soundray> Zoohouse, check out 'apt-cache depends kubuntu-desktop'. From that list, install what you need.
[05:01] <bipolar> tty54: why do you need a proxy to get to sf?
[05:01] <imnes> tty54: http://www.publicproxyservers.com/index.html
[05:01] <imnes> accoding to google
[05:01] <tty54> bipolar: the site is blocked
[05:01] <tty54> ALL SITES ARE BLOCKED AT MY SCHOOL THAT HAVE TO DO WITH PROXIES
[05:01] <DjLinX> Hello i was wondering if USB loads b4 or after networking when u first start up ur comp
[05:01] <hmpedersen> No.. Ubuntu will -not. install on my computer..
[05:02] <_jason> tty54, use google's translate feature, it will act as a proxy
[05:02] <bipolar> tty54: where are you that it's being blocked? A school in the US?
[05:02] <Zoohouse> soundray, but I still want to run KDE as my desktop
[05:02] <ofir> i tried slick the freesusse and it was very cool - very simple to use
[05:02] <Zoohouse> im not following along here...
[05:02] <Amaranth> tty54: Please don't yell.
[05:02] <hmpedersen> Ive removed everything thats not essential for installing..
[05:02] <soundray> Zoohouse, advice is the same.
[05:02] <imnes> <IP_ADDRESS>   <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:02] <dion> Hi all
[05:02] <imnes> I dunno if those work they're just on the list
[05:03] <Amaranth> ajmitch: Do you know who removed my +J?
[05:03] <dion> It's seems i can't open alot of programs?!
[05:03] <tty54> imnes: port numbers?
[05:03] <eksajm> _jason, "the conversation with su failed"
[05:03] <Zoohouse> kinda sucks not being able to just uninstall things without getting rid of kde...
[05:03] <_jason> tty54, try: http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sourceforge.net&langpair=de%7Cen&hl=en&safe=off&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&prev=%2Flanguage_tools
[05:03] <dion> Is that a common bug?
[05:03] <Kian> Hm. Is it possible to get APT to search other places on the net?   Use your user password.   Just some programs in Gnome wont load
[05:09] <_jason> eksajm, just blank?  it didn't say incorrect password?
[05:09] <ermo> was it a bot?
[05:09] <Amaranth> dion: what was the error?
[05:09] <nickrud> gundu, if you look through /var/log/Xorg.0.log, there's a list of resolutions that your system supports, along with a bunch it doesen't
[05:09] <dion> None
[05:09] <stef_ubu_epia> !bot
[05:09] <eksajm> _jason, no just didnt say anything
[05:09] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel.
[05:09] <superneo> i have ubuntu on a p3 450 with 384Mb of ram ...are there any proggys to tweak or accelerate the performance ?
[05:09] <gundu_> does anyone knows an alternative for "gedit" ? because he brakes every line when it had reached the end and thats not very clear
[05:09] <amparo_pzzi> someone???????????
[05:09] <eksajm> _jason, the password was correct
[05:09] <Amaranth> superneo: Not really, but you might like xubuntu better.
[05:10] <eksajm> Dec 15 17:08:04 localhost sudo: (pam_unix) authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=pts/1 ruser= rhost=  user=simon
[05:10] <eksajm> _jason, ^
[05:10] <Amaranth> gundu_: Disable line wrapping in the gedit preferences
[05:10] <eksajm> thats tha auth.log
[05:10] <gundu_> have not found it, already searched..
[05:10] <oudeis> hi, where do i change input language in ububtu?
[05:10] <superneo> xubuntu ?
[05:10] <Amaranth> dion: gksudo synaptic didn't output anything at all?
[05:10] <dion> I get a error
[05:10] <Amaranth> dion: that's what i wanted to see
[05:10] <dion> Amaranth: I typed it wrong (Shame me)
[05:10] <gundu_> ah
[05:10] <dion> Ok the error is
[05:10] <gundu_> sorry
[05:10] <_jason> eksajm, groups | grep admin, return anything?
[05:10] <dion> (synaptic:9841): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure: assertion `gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure (accel_closure) != NULL' failed
[05:10] <dion> (synaptic:9841): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure: assertion `gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure (accel_closure) != NULL' failed
[05:10] <gundu_> have found it now, thx
[05:11] <Amaranth> eek
[05:11] <amparo_pzzi> wzsaq
[05:11] <dion> It will load know but only when i start it manually in the terminal
[05:11] <Amaranth> dion: that's odd..
[05:11] <imnes> Is there a developers channel for ubuntu?
[05:11] <dion> If I try to open updates It wont open
[05:11] <eksajm> _jason, yeah
[05:11] <shadewind|laptop> anyone who knows why the ubuntu installation fails when installing the linux-386 package?
[05:11] <eksajm> _jason, simon and some more
[05:11] <Amaranth> dion: you're starting it from the terminal the exact same same it starts from the menu
[05:11] <mahangu> shadewind|laptop, i had some problems with the servers on that package
[05:12] <Amaranth> imnes: What do you need?
[05:12] <dion> Oh weird
[05:12] <mahangu> shadewind|laptop, are you using net install?
[05:12] <shadewind|laptop> mahangu: nope, Ubuntu Server 5.10 install CD
[05:12] <eksajm> _jason,  now it doesnt even ask for a password when i try sudo echo..
[05:12] <imnes> Amaranth: working on a patch I'm not sure how to use the debian packaging tools to build / install the modified sources
[05:12] <oudeis> can someone help? i cant' find how to switch input languages
[05:12] <mahangu> shadewind|laptop, have you checked the md5sum of the CD
[05:12] <ofir> how to run wine/xwine ?
[05:12] <mahangu> could be a bad burn
[05:12] <imnes> Amaranth: used apt-get source gnome-panel, changed some code, now I want to build and test it.
[05:13] <Amaranth> imnes: that's probably a question for #ubuntu-motu
[05:13] <ofir> just downloading an exe file ?
[05:13] <imnes> Okay, thanks
[05:13] <stef_ubu_epia> ofir: just start w(h)ining ;-D
[05:13] <_jason> eksajm, you type 'sudo echo hi' and nothing happens at all?  The only way it won't ask for a password is if you entered it correctly, it saves it for some time (I think this is the only way)
[05:13] <eksajm> _jason, okey but why doesnt it echo hi?
[05:13] <eksajm> nothing apperas
[05:14] <ofir> didnt understand
[05:15] <shadewind|laptop> mahangu: the md5 sum is fine
[05:15] <_jason> eksajm, I don't know... that's strange
[05:15] <dion> Well i must go and buy some fish
[05:15] <stef_ubu_epia> ofir: forget ist, it doesn't have any benefit for you... if u still want to waste time you have to apt-get install wine first
[05:15] <_jason> eksajm, sudo synaptic, does that run?
[05:16] <mahangu> shadewind|laptop, then i dunno, sorry
[05:16] <dion> Many people have problem with synaptic i see
[05:16] <dion> wow
[05:16] <eksajm> _jason,  no nothing happands
[05:16] <ofir> i have installed xwine - what do i do next
[05:16] <_jason> eksajm, sudo -K, and try again
[05:16] <shadewind|laptop> anyone else who knows why ubuntu server install fails on package linux-386? seems to be a common problem
[05:16] <stef_ubu_epia> get a terminal an type wine or xwine
[05:17] <ofir> my mother dont like the linux since she cant see her bank acount in firefox and opera
[05:17] <eksajm> _jason,  simon is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
[05:17] <eksajm> never got that before
[05:17] <eksajm> first time
[05:17] <_jason> eksajm, sudo cat /etc/sudoers | grep admin
[05:17] <LaptopZZ> hey, I upgraded my kernel and I get a vfs unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[05:17] <LaptopZZ> I booted from a CD, ran chroot
[05:17] <LaptopZZ> and installed the old kernel that worked from apt repo
[05:17] <LaptopZZ> still same problem
[05:18] <eksajm> _jason, it dosnt work since the user is not in sudores
[05:18] <Amaranth> LaptopZZ: dapper?
[05:18] <LaptopZZ> I think my initrd or vmlinuz got trashed
[05:18] <LaptopZZ> Amaranth: yah
[05:18] <_jason> eksajm, lol right
[05:18] <eksajm> _jason, as root it gives nothing
[05:18] <Amaranth> LaptopZZ: dapper is very broken right now
[05:18] <Amaranth> LaptopZZ: new kernel needs a new userland, old kernel doesn't work well with new userland
[05:18] <_jason> eksajm, get rid of the grep and see who is getting sudo priveleges
[05:18] <Amaranth> LaptopZZ: but it sounds like your partition got trashed
[05:19] <LaptopZZ> Amaranth: its not, I mounted ir from another hd
[05:19] <eksajm> Defaults        !lecture,tty_tickets,!fqdn
[05:19] <eksajm> # User privilege specification
[05:19] <eksajm> root    ALL=(ALL) ALL
[05:19] <eksajm> thats all
[05:19] <eksajm> and a lots of comment
[05:19] <eksajm> s
[05:19] <LaptopZZ> Amaranth: I think I Just need to get my initrd back or something
[05:19] <LaptopZZ> it worked fine till I removed my old kernels
[05:19] <LaptopZZ> and installed only linux-image-k7-smp
[05:20] <LaptopZZ> it previously had -k7 and -386
[05:20] <_jason> eksajm, okay, add the following tow lines to the end:
[05:20] <Amaranth> LaptopZZ: that looks like a grub error
[05:20] <hmpedersen> I'm gonna give install 20 more minutes before i kill it.. this time it stopped at libsdl1,2debian-oss
[05:20] <_jason> eksajm, # Members of the admin group may gain root privileges
[05:20] <LaptopZZ> Amaranth: will a reinstall of grub get me running?
[05:20] <_jason> eksajm, %admin  ALL=(ALL) ALL
[05:20] <LaptopZZ> Amaranth: how can I tell grub to reinstate everything
[05:20] <_jason> eksajm, wait!
[05:20] <eksajm> _jason,
[05:20] <eksajm> what?
[05:20] <_jason> eksajm, use visudo to edit it
[05:21] <eksajm> i dont have sudo priveleges ;D
[05:21] <_jason> eksajm, just run visudo as root
[05:21] <eksajm> nano -w is that good enough
[05:21] <eksajm> kk
[05:21] <trappist> LaptopZZ: that sounds exactly right.  your initrd has your filesystem drivers and without it your kernel won't be able to mount your filesystems.
[05:21] <eksajm> _jason, in gentoo we have a group called wheel. which is the group that can su to root
[05:21] <eksajm> nothing like that in ubuntu?
[05:21] <DRK13> a
[05:22] <_jason> eksajm, not that I've seen, just admin to get sudo priveleges
[05:22] <LaptopZZ> trappist: yea makes sense, how can I get that back? I thought that would be included in the linux-image-xxxx
[05:22] <eksajm> _jason, okey
[05:22] <eksajm> well lets try it
[05:22] <DjLinX> wats the command to change permissions
[05:22] <eksajm> sudo echo hi?
[05:22] <trappist> LaptopZZ: I dunno, I wrestled with the same thing for some time before giving up.  I couldn't even get an initrd building the kernel myself.  you might try apt-get install --reinstall.
[05:22] <_jason> eksajm, sure
[05:23] <Ng> DjLinX: chmod
[05:23] <eksajm> _jason,  it doens show anything
[05:23] <_jason> eksajm, sudo -K and try again
[05:23] <eksajm> mm did ;/
[05:23] <eksajm> sudo synaptic didnt work either ;/
[05:23] <djib> is there a program to open sqlite databases ?
[05:23] <LaptopZZ> trappist: I'll give it a shot
[05:23] <hmpedersen> does ubuntu have problems with fx5200 chipset and sb live?
[05:24] <trappist> hmpedersen: never heard of fx5200 but sblive is supported.
[05:24] <Amaranth> LaptopZZ: dpkg-reconfigure the kernel package
[05:24] <Kian> How do I change so I can se chars like    ?
[05:24] <Amaranth> LaptopZZ: it'll remake the initramfs
[05:24] <Amaranth> Kian: you should be able to already
[05:24] <dpupp> is /etc/apt/preferences suposed to be a blank file? im wanting to make sure i install the wineHQ version... and its telling me to add those lines...
[05:24] <hmpedersen> trappist, nvidia chipset for graphic cards..
[05:24] <jowi> hello all
[05:24] <LaptopZZ> Amaranth: k I will do that
[05:24] <Amaranth> dpupp: it starts blank, yes
[05:24] <stef_ubu_epia> wb jowi
[05:25] <dpupp> Thanks Amaranth
[05:25] <Kian> Amaranth: I am not... I can write it in bash, but not in irssi.
[05:25] <nickrud> hmpedersen, I use the fx5200, the stuff from ubuntu works just fine
[05:25] <_jason> eksajm, hrmm your user is in the admin group, you can pastebin your sudoers file to make sure it looks like mine if you'd like.  maybe something needs to be refreshed, you can try to reboot if the syntax of sudoers checks out
[05:25] <Amaranth> Kian: gnome-terminal?
[05:25] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: cheers. breezy installed, compiling the kernel now
[05:25] <Kian> Amaranth: no, ssh-connection
[05:25] <hmpedersen> nickrud, its just interesting.. Ive installed twice now.. It either freezes at trying to setup graphics or sound..
[05:25] <Amaranth> Kian: what terminal are you using?
[05:25] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: same here (gcc going along)
[05:25] <Amaranth> Kian: konsole, gnome-terminal, putty, etc
[05:25] <Kian> Amaranth: Hm, you mean putty?
[05:25] <Kian> putty
[05:25] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: via driver works out-of-the-box with breezy btw. so you should not have any use for the vesa driver
[05:26] <trappist> is everyone's dmesg polluted with messages like atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed... ?
[05:26] <Amaranth> Kian: ok then, i have no idea
[05:26] <Amaranth> Kian: i blame putty :P
[05:26] <Kian> ok.. :-P
[05:26] <Kian> Well, it works on another server.. so i guess its not putty
[05:26] <Kian> hehe
[05:26] <Amaranth> trappist: mine was
[05:26] <eksajm> _jason, you think a reboot might work?
[05:26] <Amaranth> trappist: or is, i dunno
[05:26] <trappist> oh, putty.  I couldn't even enter my password in putty.
[05:26] <robotgeek> Kian: putty might have some encoding.
[05:26] <LaptopZZ> Amaranth: do u know how to stop messages from going to the console?
[05:26] <nickrud> hmpedersen, do you have onboard, sound & video, and if yes, did you disable in bios (I didn't need to but...)
[05:26] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: had to disable framebuffer because my lcd errored to "out-of-range"
[05:26] <Kian> Hm..
[05:26] <LaptopZZ> Amaranth: this old sata_nv driver streams this annoying stuff non stop
[05:26] <hmpedersen> nickrud, allways disable that sort of stuff.. it never works
[05:27] <trappist> !tell Amaranth about e02a
[05:27] <Amaranth> trappist: err
[05:27] <_jason> eksajm, I think it should be working now, since your setup is the same as mine now.  I think rebooting is worth a shot
[05:27] <Amaranth> trappist: was on a desktop
[05:27] <trappist> need to turn that into a bug report I guess.  thought it was just here and there, but I have it on all my boxes.
[05:27] <eksajm> kk lets try it then.
[05:27] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: Naaahhhh, not with me! After the install routine i had the same prob... black screen but hearing the drumroll, until i manually changed the driver to vesa
[05:27] <Amaranth> trappist: well, actually a vmware image
[05:27] <eksajm> be back ;)
[05:27] <trappist> Amaranth: me too, I think it's there for laptops and it's busted.
[05:27] <Kian> Well there is something starnge with putty i guess. It works on the server..
[05:28] <k_> why doesnt my sound work in vlc?  system sounds work, but not vlc.
[05:28] <mahangu> how can i unrar a file?
[05:28] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: after a fresh breezy install!? that is bad bad bad.
[05:28] <trappist> mahangu: unrar x file.rar
[05:28] <mindframe> why doesnt my sound work in vlc?  system sounds work, but not vlc.
[05:28] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: but true
[05:28] <DRK13> anyone get conky working in ubuntu> ?  I tryed to compile from source, but no workie. I ran a 686 version with my 686 kernel. and it says that I need the 686 version of conky, I did use the 686 version!  WTF?
[05:29] <nickrud> hmpedersen, all I can say is that http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia worked like a charm
[05:29] <tiris> could someone direct me to the correct documentation...I am having trouble finding out how to do something?
[05:29] <llamuh> trappist:  its me again with the proxim orinoco gold card problems.  from what i can gather from netstumbler forums and such, the card i have is not a classic gold card and thus does not have the hermes chipset.  i believe it is the 11b card they made which should have the Atheros chipset that they used in the b/g cards.  now what i dont get is this is a very common card and i dont see how it isnt already supported in ubuntu.  ive read on some forums that peo
[05:29] <mahangu> trappist, oh the package wasnt installed. thanks
[05:29] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: maybe you should run the memtest in the grubmenu...?
[05:29] <robotgeek> DRK13: conky is in the repositories
[05:29] <dgb> how can I logon with root in ubuntu?
[05:29] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: what are your bios settings for the agp? do you have another video card plugged in?
[05:29] <trappist> llamuh: if it has an atheros chipset it should work fantastically with the madwifi drivers
[05:30] <robotgeek> DRK13: enable universe
[05:30] <DRK13> conky dosent install correctly from the repos.
[05:30] <DRK13> I tryed it
[05:30] <DRK13> its a bad version for something, I read about it on the forums
[05:30] <trappist> !tell dgb about root
[05:30] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: No other video, video-ram in bios set to 32M
[05:30] <LaptopZZ> llamuh: the madwifi-ng is aewsome
[05:30] <llamuh> yeah i saw someone mention madwifi on a forum.  where can i get info on madwifi?
[05:30] <llamuh> just google it? ;)
[05:30] <LaptopZZ> llamuh: google for madwifi-ng, and follow the noobie guuide
[05:30] <llamuh> im being such a noob, i know
[05:30] <trappist> llamuh: that's always a good start
[05:30] <LaptopZZ> llamuh: walks you right through it
[05:30] <stef_ubu_epia> Ok, kernel compile just finished
[05:31] <llamuh> thanks
[05:31] <trappist> doesn't ubuntu ship with the madwifi drivers?
[05:31] <DRK13> maybe
[05:31] <robotgeek> DRK13: try compiling from source, it is pretty easy. apt-get build-dep conky first
[05:31] <LaptopZZ> trappist: even dappers doesn't have new enough ones
[05:31] <khermans> HOw can I install Bitpim?
[05:31] <trappist> oh
[05:31] <LaptopZZ> trappist: my p7010d is a year old and dappers doesn't even support my atheros, only the latest svn does
[05:31] <hmpedersen> nickrud, well.. it might work for me aswell.. if i could do it while installing ubuntu
[05:31] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: maybe you should disable framebuffer in ubuntu install and not use it in your custom kernel either
[05:31] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: you can also try in the installer pci=noacpi
[05:32] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: compiled it as module, so i can turn it off
[05:32] <nickrud> hmpedersen, install problems are mostly over my head, I don't know enough about the internals of that
[05:32] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: brilliant
[05:32] <DRK13> ok will trywill try
[05:32] <stef_ubu_epia> OK, just let me set up the new kernel and see
[05:32] <robotgeek> DRK13: while you are at it, file a bug too :)
[05:33] <nickrud> hmpedersen, didn't realize it was during the install :)
[05:33] <DRK13> Ok
[05:35] <mindframe> anyone know why  ifconfig  is reading my cisco aironet 350 card's hardware address as 00-0C-30-E9-7B-D3-65-74-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 ?  im guessing thats why i cant get the card to work :(
[05:35] <trappist> I just got an email about how dapper is gonna have 'less' bugs (should be 'fewer') than any release ever.  seems like a premature announcement given the current extreme brokenness of dapper.
[05:36] <DjLinX> how do u chown a whole dir with sub dirs and other files
[05:36] <_jason> DjLinX, chown -R
[05:36] <trappist> DjLinX: chown -R
[05:36] <DjLinX> thx
[05:36] <LaptopZZ> trappist: yeah I wish I had stayed with breezy
[05:36] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: i forgot to put in pci=noacpi in the installer so i got some funny errors during "installing packages" process. very interesting error indeed: "apm: overridden by acpi" "apm: disabled on user request". I hope this won't affect anything i'm doing now though...
[05:36] <trappist> DjLinX: also feel free to 'man chown'
[05:36] <DjLinX> wats the man do
[05:37] <LaptopZZ> trappist: I have it going up till it tries to mount the rootfs
[05:37] <DRK13> I am still using horry untill Dapper is final
[05:37] <_jason> DjLinX, man man
[05:37] <stef_ubu_epia> ok, x-ing fingers...
[05:37] <_jason> DjLinX, manual files
[05:37] <hmpedersen> gonna try some other params when starting install this time..
[05:37] <DjLinX> o
[05:37] <DRK13> k
[05:37] <DjLinX> i was on ubuntu guide
[05:37] <eksajm> _jason, it works
[05:37] <Joemama_> hello, quick question, is there something i need in order to see an ntfs file system over the network, i got a samba share on this puter, but cant seem to write to it, so i shared the other computers drive, and this computer cant seem to see the files and folders in the share
[05:37] <LaptopZZ> trappist: dies there saying it can't open /dev/sda2 :-(
[05:37] <SanderD> trappist, LaptopZZ: what kind of problems do you have with Dapper?
[05:37] <eksajm> thanks!!
[05:37] <hmpedersen> This computer is going to run ubuntu!
[05:37] <_jason> eksajm, great
[05:37] <eksajm> _jason, dont know why it didnt work before reboot
[05:37] <DjLinX> but all it did was the basic chown
[05:37] <eksajm> thans mate..
[05:37] <trappist> LaptopZZ: it's a scsi drive?
[05:37] <LaptopZZ> SanderD: at the moment the new kernel blew up my grub/initrd, I can't boot
[05:37] <_jason> eksajm, np
[05:37] <LaptopZZ> trappist: sata, I have satanv and SiI
[05:37] <trappist> SanderD: I'm going on hearsay, but I'm about to do a vmware install.
[05:38] <LaptopZZ> trappist: tried with both it's like the driver is gone
[05:38] <trappist> LaptopZZ: can't help you there.  I've never used a sata drive.
[05:38] <LaptopZZ> trappist: generally its pretty straightforward..
[05:38] <LaptopZZ> trappist: this setup as worked for the past 6 mos
[05:38] <stef_ubu_epia> shi.....
[05:38] <freddie> my flash player wored dont show up can someone help me
[05:38] <Joemama_> is there something i need to see an ntfs file share on windows xp computer?
[05:38] <stef_ubu_epia> i had that before
[05:39] <hmpedersen> right.. never seen this before..
[05:39] <ideafix> hello unters
[05:39] <LaptopZZ> Joemama_: no such thing as ntfs etc over smb
[05:39] <LaptopZZ> Joemama_: it's all smbfs or cifs
[05:39] <Joemama_> hrmm
[05:39] <Joemama_> cifs ?
[05:39] <Joemama_> what is cifs?
[05:39] <stef_ubu_epia> x seems to be at the edge of initializing..... 5 sec... and then the monitor switches to black
[05:39] <ideafix> many shipits to you
[05:39] <SanderD> LaptopZZ: how long does it take until such problems are fixed? or should you reinstall then?
[05:39] <Ng> Joemama_: an enhanced and standardised version of smb, ish
[05:39] <Joemama_> well, when i log into the share, it tells me that some of the files are not able to be displayed
[05:39] <LaptopZZ> SanderD: what do you mean?
[05:39] <stef_ubu_epia> no fb, booted with vga=0
[05:39] <LaptopZZ> SanderD: I don't maintain the ubu kernel
[05:39] <Joemama_> which happens to be all the files
[05:39] <ideafix> any niggaz in here ?
[05:40] <LaptopZZ> SanderD: I might get the live cd out to have it load the stock breezy kernel
[05:40] <jowi> Joemama_: smbclient should be able to write to it if the kernel's got ntfs write support enabhled. i don't know if the stock kernel has. maybe someone else knows.  I heard many packages are being updated every day or something like that, so I guess those problem might be fixed quickly
[05:40] <SanderD> ah, ok
[05:40] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: So i took ur config as a starting point just added reiserfs-support and framebuffer as a module
[05:40] <LaptopZZ> SanderD: I don't see how I'm going to resolve any problems if I can't even uncompress the kernel from grub
[05:40] <TasmanianDevil> i have installed ubuntu 5.10 on my laptop
[05:40] <hmpedersen> i wonder how long he's gonna keep that up.. and how many names he'll be using..
[05:40] <freddie> freddie my flash player wored dont show up can someone help me
[05:40] <Joemama_> hrmm
[05:41] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: is there an option for framebuffer in dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[05:41] <TasmanianDevil> i don't have mp3 support on it
[05:41] <mindframe> anyone know why  ifconfig  is reading my cisco aironet 350 card's hardware address as 00-0C-30-E9-7B-D3-65-74-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 ?  im guessing thats why i cant get the wifi to work :(
[05:41] <TasmanianDevil> what can i do about it
[05:41] <adroc> helo all
[05:41] <_jason> ubotu, tell TasmanianDevil about mp3
[05:41] <freddie> freddie my flash player wored dont show up can someone help me
[05:41] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: mom, let me try something
[05:41] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: i followed my own wiki to see if i have everything, so i went with a new config. we'll see in  a while
[05:41] <freddie> my flash player wored dont show up can someone help me
[05:42] <freddie> my flash player wored dont show up can someone help me
[05:42] <hmpedersen> Well.. I'm going to have to temporarily install wi.. BAQH!
[05:42] <adroc> does anyone in here use airodump?
[05:42] <_jason> freddie, what is 'wored'
[05:42] <hmpedersen> bah*
[05:42] <SanderD> is it possible to use one /home partition with two linux versions?
[05:42] <muep> SanderD: yes
[05:43] <freddie> _jasonthe wordes and the nubers just dounr show up
[05:43] <hmpedersen> hmm.. i have xandros somewhere on the desk..
[05:43] <freddie> dount*
[05:43] <D1> anyone tried clearlooks-cario yet? on breezy or dapper?
[05:43] <Joemama_> Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "Windows Network: minint-bhi9gl".
[05:43] <Joemama_> that is the error
[05:43] <bliplsjfo> can anyone give me some grub advice?  i have it set to timeout 0 and it's crashing without giving me a chance to repair it.
[05:43] <Joemama_> that i am getting
[05:43] <D1> I wanna know if its too slow to use.
[05:43] <D1> since it wsa put on dapper
[05:43] <stef_ubu_epia> Intresting things happen here...
[05:43] <Joemama_> and i dont see any files listed
[05:43] <SanderD> muep: so I could leave breezy on one partition, install dapper on another and share my /home partition?
[05:44] <jowi> Joemama_: never seen before i'm afraid
[05:44] <Joemama_> hrmm
[05:44] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: tell me then :)
[05:44] <hmpedersen> I dont like the idea of installing xandros.. worst purchase i ever made :(
[05:44] <muep> SanderD: yes, it would probably work
[05:44] <Joemama_> lemme go see if i can indeed access it from another windows computer
[05:44] <Joemama_> brb
[05:44] <_jason> freddie, I don't know if this will work for you, but google says: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/17/flash-text-fix/
[05:44] <muep> SanderD: newer versions of software might have different conf files but most of the stuff should work ok
[05:44] <jowi> Joemama_: check the software firewall while you're at it :)
[05:45] <selinium> how do you shut down via the commandline?
[05:45] <Ng> shutdown -h now
[05:45] <SanderD> muep: okay, thanks, I think I'll try that (I could always remove the conf files and reconfigure things)
[05:45] <selinium> Ng, Cheers
[05:45] <depx_> hi
[05:45] <stef_ubu_epia> I got a strange looking colorful x-desktop on console 1 (!), x-server screwed up, and just a blue empty screen on all other consoles
[05:45] <muep> SanderD: no prob, at least it won't mess up your system, the worst damage possible should be some distorted user configs
[05:46] <_jason> freddie, you may want to try just 'sudo apt-get install gsfonts-x11' first and then msttcorefonts afterwards if that doesn't work alone
[05:46] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: don't like the sound of that. what did you do to make it ...ehhh... wierd?
[05:46] <D1> nobody with clearlooks-cario? ;[
[05:46] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: how much ram have you got on that board?
[05:47] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: just booting the new kernel with vga=791 and havving the driver set to via
[05:47] <depx_> i'm trying to boot a diskless worstation with pxe + nfs
[05:47] <mebsd> what's the difference between debian and ubuntu
[05:48] <Hericus> mebsd, do you run either?
[05:48] <stef_ubu_epia> I think there's something really screwed up in terms of hardware board revisions, and the via concept of preferring the frambuffer as a graphical output
[05:48] <ofir> how to use wine ?
[05:48] <mebsd> deb
[05:48] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: got 512mb
[05:49] <LaptopZZ> mebsd: if you're a noob, you might want to run ubu
[05:49] <adroc> how do u manually put your NIC into promiscuous mode?
[05:49] <depx_> the boot process fail after the kernel : /dev/nfs does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
[05:49] <ofir> installed it but dont know tp use
[05:49] <Hericus> LaptopZZ, define a noob.
[05:49] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: me too, using 64mb for the agp. have you disabled plug-and-play in bios?
[05:49] <adroc> how do u manually put your NIC into promiscuous mode?
[05:49] <LaptopZZ> Hericus: someone who doesn't know how to setup X on his own using the config file
[05:49] <hmpedersen> hmm.. never got this far in install before.. But im gonna wait and see if it works.. Im sure it wont beat ubuntu, though..
[05:49] <gypsymauro> hello
[05:49] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: i'll try that
[05:49] <adroc> how do u manually put your NIC into promiscuous mode?
[05:50] <hmpedersen> hmm.. my pizza must be gettin cold..
[05:50] <Hericus> LaptopZZ, hm.. thats a nice one. I'll save it for christmas eve.
[05:50] <mebsd> i  run netbsd and windows xp.. am i newbie?
[05:50] <LaptopZZ> Hericus: hm?
[05:50] <gypsymauro> please tell me the application of ubuntu that's not in the official DB and that you download when installa new one ubuntu:)
[05:50] <Hericus> "do you know how to setup x on your own"
[05:50] <Hericus> hah
[05:50] <LaptopZZ> Hericus: I ran slack in the 3.x days
[05:50] <Hericus> Admirable..
[05:50] <Hericus> And now..
[05:51] <LaptopZZ> I am in school and don't have time to screw with it so I went from deb to ubu
[05:51] <LaptopZZ> very nice overall
[05:51] <Hericus> Yes..
[05:51] <Hericus> :)
[05:51] <ofir> need help how to run ie under xwine
[05:51] <Hericus> Ubuntu is satisfactory.
[05:51] <trappist> ofir: might not work at all.  but wine IEXPLORE.EXE should do the trick if it's going to work at all.
[05:51] <LaptopZZ> Hericus: they follow their 'linux for human beings' to a t, it really is useable more or less by non nerds
[05:52] <LaptopZZ> Hericus: but at the same time offers a fair amount of flexibility
[05:52] <ofir> thanks , also xwine ieexplore.exe ?
[05:52] <hmpedersen> ofir, ie6 wont install
[05:52] <LaptopZZ> ofir: crossover office
[05:52] <Hericus> Yes, yes..
[05:52] <adroc> how do u manually put your NIC into promiscuous mode?
[05:52] <LaptopZZ> ofir: its your only option
[05:52] <hmpedersen> crossover might work...
[05:52] <tiris> anyone know how to run files from a remote server (I am trying to play music located on my server harddrive but the player on my local machine is not seeing the files. The remote machine is a Linux BOX)?

[05:54] <freddie> _jason this sudo apt-get install gsfonts-x11
[05:54] <LaptopZZ> iG3n: well until we have a good paste, hard to say
[05:54] <ofir> crossover office cost 65 dollars ...
[05:54] <LaptopZZ> ofir: its very good
[05:54] <_jason> freddie, you type that in a terminal, apt-get is like synaptic on the command line
[05:54] <trappist> ofir: best $65 you'll ever spend on software.  it's awesome.

[05:54] <dePOLL> Hi. I'm looking for some tool to easily convert a xcursor file to an animated gif or to create an animated gif out of a series of single pngs. i feel like gimp is a bit of an overkill for that task :)

[05:55] <_jason> freddie, app menu -> accessories
[05:55] <mebsd> is ubuntu better than debian??
[05:55] <LaptopZZ> iG3n: hm you broke it bad
[05:55] <trappist> mebsd: of course.
[05:55] <LaptopZZ> iG3n: apt-get update; apt-get -f install
[05:56] <iG3n> doesn't fix it
[05:56] <_jason> mebsd, for some people, what really amtters is if it's better for you :)
[05:56] <ofir> the only money i spent on software yet was win95 at 9t cosy me 120 $

[05:56] <ofir> at 98
[05:56] <occy> So I guess I'm the only person having problems with Ubuntu breezy.  Gnome barfing here and there, Firefox dies... bmp dies, rhytembox dies on me... xchat will go poof too.
[05:56] <_oP> @mebsd it has more implemented, like samba, also it is a little more easy to find support for newbies
[05:56] <Hericus> Back.
[05:56] <dePOLL> trappist: mh.. that means crawling through hundreds of command line options.. but i'll take a look, thx.
[05:56] <Hericus> The question isn't how.
[05:56] <trappist> ofir: apparently ye olde wine isn't yet up to the task of running ie.  but cxoffice is pretty awesome.
[05:56] <Hericus> Or is it..

[05:57] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: OK, addendum to the wiki: Make sure, the video out in the bios is set to CRT only, if CRT and TV is set, the monitor isn't detectet
[05:57] <trappist> freddie: sudo apt-get install gsfonts-x11
[05:57] <_jason> freddie, you forgot the 'sudo' aprt in the beginning
[05:57] <iG3n> says E:Unmet dependencies. Try using -f
[05:57] <Nei> hi my ubuntu wine doesn't give access to my cdwriter to nero, how can I fix it?
[05:57] <Nei> the error message says
[05:57] <_jason> ubotu, tell freddie about sudo
[05:57] <Nei> err:aspi:SCSI_GetDeviceName Could not open HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi\Scsi Port 0\Scsi Bus 0\Target Id 1\Logical Unit Id 0
[05:57] <ofir> i think i will go back to xp - that will end my suffers
[05:57] <LaptopZZ> iG3n: hoary or breezy
[05:57] <pipeline> Nei: I wouldn't expect that to work.
[05:57] <trappist> Nei: probably need to tweak your wine config
[05:57] <Nei> pipeline, it works fine on debian
[05:57] <trappist> pipeline: I've run nero in wine
[05:57] <pipeline> Nei: Use the Nero ISO writer and burn the ISO with linux software.
[05:57] <trappist> but
[05:57] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: that's it? that was what was wrong all along?
[05:57] <hmpedersen> Now.. I do hope Cedega runs in xandr..
[05:57] <trappist> nero makes a linux version too
[05:58] <freddie> _jason it say the same thing
[05:58] <iG3n> YESSSSS
[05:58] <LaptopZZ> trappist: since when?
[05:58] <Nei> pipeline, the nero image writer only produces proprietary images
[05:58] <iG3n> I fixed it!
[05:58] <LaptopZZ> iG3n: what did u do?
[05:58] <pipeline> Nei: That is not true.
[05:58] <_jason> freddie, close synaptic or any other installing program before running that command
[05:58] <pipeline> Nei: And even if it were, they're easily converted.
[05:58] <iG3n> apt-get -f --reinstall fixed it :)
[05:58] <trappist> LaptopZZ: http://www.nero.com/en/NeroLINUX.html
[05:58] <stef_ubu_epia> I think yes.... so i'll test my previously built kernel again with the via drivers
[05:58] <LaptopZZ> iG3n: congrats
[05:58] <Nei> pipeline, how do I convert a nrg to iso?
[05:58] <pipeline> Nei: It is true that by default, it produces the nero format, but it is indeed possible on the "full" version of nero to burn regular isos.
[05:59] <pipeline> Nei: nrg2iso
[05:59] <_oP> @ofir what seems to be the trouble
[05:59] <nlindblad> Seveas, are you with us?
[05:59] <Seveas> nlindblad, half
[05:59] <LaptopZZ> trappist: hmm $20, not bad, gnomebaker seems to work reasonably well for me though
[05:59] <nlindblad> Seveas, update on my rootish-problems
[05:59] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: so the via drivers are buggy insofar, that the detection of the correct output device fails if not set to CRT only
[05:59] <trappist> LaptopZZ: it's all about the k3b
[05:59] <freddie> _jason im not installing any thing
[05:59] <nlindblad> Seveas, I remember now, that I was prompted to set a root-password during the install
[06:00] <ofir> my mother can not enter her bank acount with firefox
[06:00] <LaptopZZ> trappist: heh whatever floats your boar
[06:00] <LaptopZZ> boat
[06:00] <_jason> freddie, why not?
[06:00] <xirtus> anyone here know a good 64bit compatible dvd shrink program for linux?
[06:00] <Seveas> nlindblad, server install i guess
[06:00] <nlindblad> Seveas, I thought it was weird back then but I didn't think that much about it
[06:00] <Nei> pipeline, thanks I'll try that, but still it should work :/
[06:00] <nlindblad> Seveas, no, a regular installation
[06:00] <trappist> LaptopZZ: yeah right.  everyone knows it's the best.  just like kde is the best desktop environment.
[06:00] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: just booted fresh. for me the wiki works flawless. perfect dri rendering. with all correct options. seems like there is a bug in the via driver for sure. I've CRT+TV, PAL, AGP as primary device.
[06:00] <freddie> _jason i mean im not trying to install any thing
[06:00] <LaptopZZ> trappist: hah, I'm fine with gnome
[06:00] <Seveas> nlindblad, regular ubuntu install has never asked for a root pw
[06:00] <pipeline> Nei: Well, you could write the ISO Directly >:(
[06:00] <pipeline> Nei: Also, there's a variety of decent native software
[06:00] <Nei> nero should be able to find my cd writer
[06:00] <nlindblad> Seveas, might I've invoked a function?
[06:01] <iG3n> is it easy to get bootsplash to work on ubuntu?
[06:01] <ofir> i am spending hours in installig software
[06:01] <ofir> not everything is working
[06:01] <LaptopZZ> iG3n: it takes effort to get rid of it
[06:01] <Nei> which native software supports nrg natively?
[06:01] <_jason> freddie, to get flash to display properly, I thnik you will need that package.  I have tha package installed myself, it is from main.  It's perfectly fine.
[06:01] <Seveas> nlindblad, can't imagine which if you didn't do a server install
[06:01] <ubu_on_epia> jowi, that's how it looks here
[06:01] <iG3n> thats alright
[06:01] <nlindblad> Seveas, I did the regular one
[06:01] <Seveas> iG3n, ubuntu uses usplash
[06:01] <antgel> when i do /etc/init.d/networking restart, it hangs. is this supported?  i don't want to have to use the gnome gui to do this
[06:01] <ubu_on_epia> :~$ glxinfo | grep rendering
[06:01] <ubu_on_epia> __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 - succeeded
[06:01] <ubu_on_epia> direct rendering: Yes
[06:01] <nlindblad> Seveas, I'm sure
[06:01] <iG3n> I really want it
[06:01] <LaptopZZ> upgrade to breezy
[06:01] <jowi> ubu_on_epia: perfect
[06:01] <LaptopZZ> you can have it
[06:01] <Nei> anyway although some software like k3b is close, nero is still better
[06:01] <trappist> Nei: nerolinux
[06:02] <Seveas> iG3n, get the ubuntu kernel source, patch it, compile
[06:02] <iG3n> it's not working
[06:02] <iG3n> do I have to apt-get it
[06:02] <ubu_on_epia> Thanks for all the fish .;-D
[06:02] <Seveas> yes, and manually patch and compile
[06:02] <iG3n> can you give me though it?
[06:02] <Nei> trappist, are you sure? anyway nerolinux sucks
[06:02] <freddie> _jason i cant read it cause the wordes dont show up
[06:02] <Seveas> iG3n, no
[06:02] <zauber> Hi.. having trouble with iptables on my ubuntu server. I have a client whose firewall won't allow him to use port 22 (don't ask why - I don't get the answer...). Anyhow, I thought I could use iptables on the server to route all requests on port 2222 to 22 (say that ten times:) ) I tried a one liner but it doesn't seem to be working. May I paste it?
[06:02] <jowi> ubu_on_epia: you're welcome man. nice to know that the wiki was ok.
[06:02] <_oP> @ofir try to switch pipelining off type in adress bar about:config and scroll down to network.http.pipelining and deactivate it
[06:02] <ubu_on_epia> but at least the howto is now perfectly proven
[06:02] <Seveas> zauber, sure
[06:02] <nlindblad> Seveas, will recovery be a pain in the ass?
[06:02] <zauber> sudo /sbin/iptables -t=nat -p tcp --dport 2222  -j DNAT --to <IP_ADDRESS>:22
[06:02] <jowi> ubu_on_epia: will add the crt+tv issue in the troubleshooting section
[06:03] <Seveas> nlindblad, boot from a live cd, reset the root password
[06:03] <_oP> maybe it will help
[06:03] <nlindblad> Seveas, considering root isn't permitted to log in and no user is in the admin-group
[06:03] <_jason> freddie, I've told you, to fix that problem I think you will need to install gsfonts-x11.  If you don't want to do that then I don't what else to suggest.
[06:03] <zauber> woops.. wrong one (btw - the ipadress is not to my server - so dont try)
[06:03] <nlindblad> Seveas, boot: recovery ?
[06:03] <Seveas> nlindblad, livecd is a different environment
[06:03] <Seveas> not recovery mode, you need a live cd
[06:03] <nlindblad> oh
[06:03] <Hoxzer> can I somehow see from open office how many words I have into my text?
[06:03] <zauber> $ sudo /sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 2222  -j DNAT --to <IP_ADDRESS>:22
[06:03] <nlindblad> Seveas, you mean chroot?
[06:03] <Seveas> yup
[06:03] <zauber> thats the one I thought would work...
[06:04] <nlindblad> Seveas, okey
[06:04] <freddie> _ i want to install it but i dont no how
[06:04] <iG3n> how do I capture images off a usb webcam?
[06:04] <trappist> zauber: you want -j REDIRECT --to-ports 22
[06:04] <iG3n> ov511 driver
[06:04] <freddie> _jason i want to install it but i dont no how
[06:04] <Seveas> zauber, echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[06:04] <zauber> trappist: great! I'll try that
[06:04] <_jason> freddie, okay, can you use the search function in synaptic?  Search for 'gsfonts-x11' and install it.
[06:04] <Seveas> -j DNAT is good
[06:05] <khermans> HOw can I add /usr/local/lib to my library path?
[06:05] <trappist> zauber: I'm assuming you're doing this on the same box he wants to ssh to
[06:05] <ofir> :) i am too tired of trying things , thanks for the help
[06:05] <khermans> I have a program that is not finding libtiff3, that i installed manually
[06:05] <zauber> trappist: yes
[06:05] <trappist> khermans: add it to /etc/ld.so.conf
[06:05] <_oP> :)
[06:05] <steve_> hey can someone explain how to access apt-get?
[06:05] <zauber> seveas, do you mean echo 1> /proc...
[06:05] <Seveas> khermans, echo /usr/local/lib | sudo tee -a /etc/ld.so.conf && sudo ldconfig
[06:06] <steve_> where do I need to go inorder to input commands?
[06:06] <Seveas> zauber, ehm, yeah
[06:06] <trappist> khermans: what Seveas said
[06:06] <khermans> Seveas, thanks!
[06:06] <_oP> @steve_ u mean use it? try apt-cache search + what u are looking for then apt-get install + what u need ...
[06:06] <ofir> even the bitorrent does not working
[06:07] <zauber> Seveas... I get permission denied when doing that. even when sudoing. do you need to be real root for that?
[06:07] <_oP> @ofir do u use a firewall ? like firestarter ? or router?
[06:07] <LaptopZZ> trappist: k3b has gotten a lot better
[06:07] <LaptopZZ> trappist: very nice
[06:07] <freddie> _jason thx 1 owe u 1
[06:07] <trappist> zauber: are you sure you got the file right?
[06:07] <_jason> freddie, np
[06:07] <trappist> LaptopZZ: I like it better than anything on win32
[06:07] <LaptopZZ> trappist: gnomebaker kept crashing on load, it looks really nice
[06:07] <tiris> Anyone know how network drives are mounted in this distro I don't see anything in the /mnt/ dir?
[06:08] <zauber> Seveas: yes, I can paste two lines if its ok (command and result)
[06:08] <LaptopZZ> trappist: yeah I'll stick with this
[06:08] <trappist> tiris: try /media
[06:08] <ubu_on_epia> jowi, just booted my previous kernel again (with fb-support compiled in) and it works as well
[06:08] <ofir> i have conection my problem is installing stuff and not seeing sites corectly with fire fox
[06:08] <mindframe> anyone know why  ifconfig  is reading my cisco aironet 350 card's hardware address as 00-0C-30-E9-7B-D3-65-74-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 ?  im guessing thats why i cant get the wifi to work :(
[06:08] <tech9iner> misfit_toy you up chum?
[06:08] <jowi> ubu_on_epia, stef_ubu_epia: gonna shutdown this comp and login on my real one. brb. ahh, that is great news
[06:08] <misfit_toy> hey tech9iner , just sat down
[06:08] <Seveas> zauber, echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/.....
[06:08] <steve_> like how do you get to it?
[06:09] <ofir> also the bitorrent asking me to find a meta file
[06:09] <jordo23> What's the command to tell if you are connected to a domain?
[06:09] <steve_> OP: how do you get to the apt-get input?
[06:09] <ubu_on_epia> jowi, thanks again, and #we had a lot of fun' hadn't we ?
[06:09] <steve_> OP: I cant seem to find it
[06:09] <tiris> cdrom and floppy are there. but not the network drives. I gained access to the network drives using Places>Connect to server  if that helps.
[06:09] <deflux-> Is there any decent howto's for wine on ubuntu?
[06:09] <jowi> ubu_on_epia: it was interesting. best thing is that you now have a proper system! btw, did your boot-time improve?
[06:10] <tech9iner> timing is EVerythang eh misfit_toy ;]
[06:10] <D1> YAY!!!!!
[06:10] <steve_> OP: Like where do I input apt-get MPlayer
[06:10] <D1> FILEZILLA RUNS ON UBUNTU!
[06:10] <steve_> or something like that
[06:10] <D1> the linux version that is....
[06:10] <android_> what version of macromedia dreamweaver works on crossover office?
[06:10] <jowi> ubu_on_epia: my boot time went from 65 to 35 seconds.
[06:10] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: of course.... got rid of evms and lvm as well :-D
[06:10] <misfit_toy> tech9iner, heh, so you have come over to the dark side have you?
[06:10] <_oP> @steve_ what are u searching for? trying to install, have u tryed --> System --> Administration --> Synaptic Package Manager its very easy prog to search and instal stuff
[06:10] <Nei> how hard is it to get scsi emulation work on ubuntu? according to winehq I need that
[06:10] <zauber> Seveas that seems to have done the trick - still, the server is not responding on port 2222
[06:11] <zauber> even after rerunning the iptables command
[06:11] <trappist> zauber: if you're not flushing your rules, you need to use -I instead of -A to put the new rule at the beginning of the chain
[06:11] <Seveas> zauber, did you install the ssh server?
[06:12] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: i think that you can leave crt+tv if you start breezy installer with "linux debian-installer/framebuffer=false pci=noacpi" actually. but then framebuffer will be off. it was a hit and miss really. very good troubleshooting stef
[06:12] <zauber> trappist: thats probably it
[06:12] <zauber> Seveas: yes, ssh works fine on port 22 as it should
[06:12] <stef_ubu_epia> jowi: very good help on ur side as well...
[06:12] <Seveas> zauber, iptables -t NAT -L -v
[06:13] <Seveas> output -> pastebin
[06:13] <trappist> -t nat
[06:13] <krikey> how can I reconfigure the resolution in Ubuntu?
[06:13] <steve_> oP: well I would like to install MPlayer although it isnt shown in the Add/Remove programs
[06:13] <zauber> Seveas: what does that do?
[06:13] <jowi> stef_ubu_epia: you're the first person to try the wiki as far as i know. it's only been up for a week :)
[06:13] <Seveas> zauber, it lists the rules in the nat table
[06:13] <zauber> (the L and v)
[06:13] <Seveas> don't forget to take trappist's suggestion
[06:13] <trappist> L for list, v for verbose
[06:13] <krikey> ive tried the system/preferences/screen res but this only gives me 620x480
[06:14] <krikey> also I have a dual monitor setup
[06:14] <frafra> hi all
[06:14] <jowi> brb
[06:14] <stef_ubu_epia> c u
[06:14] <ubuntu_> Hi
[06:14] <frafra> my friend have sent me an email, cripted with gpg
[06:15] <dmitriy-X> how to install the cd driver ?
[06:15] <frafra> I've imported the key, but I don't know how decrypt it
[06:15] <krikey> whats the default root password?
[06:15] <krikey> after install
[06:15] <ubuntu_> Does any one no where I could download free MP3
[06:15] <Seveas> !tell krikey about root
[06:15] <Seveas> ubuntu_, google for 'creative commons music'
[06:15] <nadia007> can you have a win xp box authenticate users on a ubuntu server?
[06:15] <tech9iner> yepper.. i can recall all the numerous friges with had inside and out in barn n garages and henhouse n such on ks farm when a kid.. nuttin stopped them for decades..
[06:16] <dmitriy-X> how to play file .mp3 while using ubuntu linux OS ?
[06:16] <Seveas> nadia007, with samba
[06:16] <kane__> hey How are you?
[06:16] <Seveas> !tell dmitriy-X about mp3
[06:16] <DRK13> nuttin but a g-thing/
[06:16] <albacker> dmitriy-X, use xmms or beep-media-player
[06:16] <krikey> so how do I reconfigure ubuntu with the right monitor types and resolutions?
[06:16] <DRK13> I like beep
[06:16] <Seveas> !tell krikey about fixres
[06:16] <DRK13> beep beep!
[06:17] <DRK13> you can use winamp skins for beep
[06:17] <frafra> the mail starts with --BEGIN PGP MESSAGE--
[06:17] <frafra> I don't know how decrypt it
[06:17] <albacker> yes thats true,
[06:17] <frafra> who can help me?
[06:17] <nadia007> seveas, I'm trying to setup an ubuntu box as server in a win environment.  Ubuntu would be the only server.  Know of any resources that can help?
[06:17] <trappist> frafra: what email client
[06:17] <albacker> but i like the default skin, and i like more something functional than something good-looking.
[06:17] <Seveas> frafra, save it to file and run gpg --decrypt < filename
[06:18] <Seveas> nadia007, the samba docs & website :)
[06:18] <steve_> can anyone inform me as to how to get MPlayer installed on ubuntu?
[06:18] <frafra> I've download the mail with a mail client, I'm on the web interface of google
[06:18] <zauber> Seveas. & trappist. thanks for the tips! but It still doesn't quite seem to be doing it right, looking in the list of rules I now have target "REDIRECT", prot "tcp", "any" on in and out, "anywhere" for source and dest, plus the info: "tcp dpt:2222 redir ports 22"
[06:18] <trappist> frafra: paste it into a text file and decrypt it per Seveas's suggestion
[06:18] <nadia007> seveas, I thought samba was just for file sharing?
[06:19] <Jowi> ubu_on_epia: updating the wiki now. if you wish me to add anything in particular feel free to tell me.
[06:19] <kane__> !tell steve_ try using synaptic package manager
[06:19] <zauber> Seveas & trappist: and its not responding to ssh requests on 2222, but it is responding on 22
[06:19] <_oP> yum just eating scampis and ships, carbohydrates and proteins good brain food yum yum
[06:19] <trappist> zauber: toes it timeout, or do you get connection refused, or what?
[06:19] <zauber> (ie I can log in when using the regular port)
[06:19] <Seveas> zauber, -j REDIRECT won't work, you need -j DNAT
[06:19] <zauber> trappist: timeout
[06:19] <zauber> Seveas, ok
[06:19] <trappist> -j REDIRECT was invented just for this
[06:19] <Seveas> nadia007, samba can also be the domain server
[06:19] <steve_> kane: how? what do you have to do, I search for Mplayer although it doesnt come up with any results
[06:20] <albacker> steve_, apt-get install mplayer-..  try doing unaame-a and se ethe number there. it should be 686, 386, 586, k7..
[06:20] <frafra> no openpgp data found, it says
[06:20] <nadia007> seveas, thanks... I'll do some reading.
[06:20] <blaaman1> steve_: Perhaps you need to add an repository ?
[06:20] <dmitriy-X> i want play need for speed most wanted using ubuntu linux Os, but i dont know how to install it. Can Someone help me ?
[06:20] <_oP> @blaaman1 true
[06:21] <frafra> how to decrypt it?
[06:21] <kane__> does anyone know how to make linux read my NTFS hdd?? Is there a way?
[06:21] <Kazidhea> steve_: if you understand french here is a very good howto http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=17087
[06:21] <albacker> dmitriy-X, you can play TUX-racer that is as COOL as need for speed underground.. but tuxracer has a great graphic. and its free !
[06:21] <Seveas> kane__, system -> admin -> disks
[06:21] <alexissoft> hi
[06:22] <Zoohouse> whats the name of a kde app that changes the screen resolution?
[06:22] <Riddell> krandr
[06:22] <Riddell> krandrtray
[06:22] <_oP> @kane__ firs u have to find out ur connected hdds with sudo fdisk -l
[06:22] <Seveas> Riddell, do you have a trigger on kde? :)
[06:22] <kane__> Seveas, Ialready tried it, mounted the disk to /media/hda1/ but there is nothing inside...
[06:22] <GameCat> hi
[06:22] <Seveas> kane__, what does ls /media/hda1 say?
[06:23] <_oP> then mount /dev/hd* + 123445 -t ntfs /path like /media/windows, but u have to create the directory first
[06:23] <kane__> Seveas, nothing it's empty
[06:23] <GameCat> can anyone tell me if Zend Studio Professional will run on (k)ubuntu? it requires glibc 2.1 apparently, and I'm unsure if I have that or not :)
[06:23] <Seveas> no error?
[06:23] <sebastian> When I run Apache and put in my external IP address  I get a blank page.   I think the reason for this is, because I get my IP address from DHCP.  and that I need to set up a static ip address  for Ubuntu,  ,but   I am not sure how to do that.   I was told also that my multi boot with XP can still use DHCP.  and all other computers on the network can use DHCP.  and Ubuntu can use the static
[06:23] <Seveas> kane__, put the output of the command 'mount' on the pastebin
[06:24] <pipeline> GameCat: It should work.
[06:24] <GameCat> pipeline: lovely, thnaks
[06:24] <_oP> @kane_ http://ubuntuguide.org/#mountunmountntfs and http://ubuntuguide.org/#automountntfs
[06:24] <frafra> It doesn't decrypt the txt file that I've created pasting the text of the mail. Who can help me?
[06:25] <_jason> frafra, if you use thunderbird there is an extension that will make gpg easy... you just click and it does what you want

[06:25] <thegladiator> hi
[06:25] <thegladiator> i installed mozilla internet application suite
[06:25] <thegladiator> where can i find it ?
[06:25] <_jason> thegladiator, is it under the internet menu?
[06:26] <thegladiator> _jason, no i can nly see firefox there
[06:26] <blaamann> thegladiator: Maybe you need to restart Gnome
[06:26] <sktrdie> how do I take away
[06:26] <_jason> thegladiator, did you refresh the panel? (killall gnome-panel)
[06:26] <thegladiator> ok i will try that
[06:26] <sktrdie> GDM starts everytime automatically... I don't want that
[06:26] <sktrdie> !
[06:26] <ubotu> sktrdie: Do they come in packets of five?
[06:26] <sktrdie> how do I take it off?
[06:26] <zauber> Seveas & Trappist: using DNAT or REDIRECT gives same problem... I wonder .. there should be some iptables command to log an attempted connection right? You know what that would look like? seems like I'll need to do some dbugging...
[06:26] <markive> i can't get airsnort to work :(#
[06:27] <bshumate> zauber: if you're going to be connecting to your sshd on the non-standard port of 2222 anyway, why not simply edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config, change the 'Port' directive to 2222 and restart sshd with sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart, and be done with it?
[06:27] <trappist> zauber: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 2222 -j LOG --log-prefix "ssh attempt: "
[06:27] <Hericus> markive, you can however tell us what error message you get.
[06:27] <kane__> Seveas, there is no output... how do I do it...
[06:28] <zauber> bshumate: yea.. thought of that first... but, I want ssh to answer on 22 _also_ this "2222" business is mostly a hack for just one guy on an annoying firewall.
[06:28] <xirtus> linux ist gay//]
[06:28] <trappist> zauber: oh, also: iptables -I FORWARD -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
[06:28] <trappist> zauber: are you sure this guy can get out on 2222?
[06:29] <iG3n> how can I make it so when someone logs into my system before you can type anything you have to type y/n after the motd?
[06:29] <markive> Hericus, i don't get an error message  , it just doesn't start scanning
[06:29] <mindframe> anyone know why  ifconfig  is reading my cisco aironet 350 card's hardware address as 00-0C-30-E9-7B-D3-65-74-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 ?  im guessing thats why i cant get the wifi to work :(
[06:29] <iG3n> like to agree to my rules
[06:29] <zauber> trappist: yes, I have it from him that all ports above 1024 'can' be opened by his network administrator
[06:29] <thegladiator> the mozilla suite still doesnt exist
[06:29] <bshumate> zauber: ahhh...sounds like your chap cannot create outgoing traffic on 2222 then maybe?
[06:29] <Seveas> mindframe, cisco's create 2 interfaces, one with a good mac and one with a wrong mac
[06:30] <kane__> there is one more thing... Is there any way to somehow set up my other disk (fat32) because I have to use terminal and sudo command to copy/delete/move stuff...
