[00:00] <bod_> !ask | Chewy
[00:00] <ubotu> Chewy: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[00:01] <stormze1> Slart: That was it.  Wow. o O  Thank you.
[00:01] <Slart> stormze1: wow.. I've learned something as well.. I've never put a space there in my files.. guess I've been lucky so far =)
[00:01] <bod_> !helpersnack | Slart
[00:01] <ubotu> Slart: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!
[00:01] <Slart> yum.. or.. apt

[00:01] <Slart> just ask you're question, chewy
[00:02] <bod_> !gq | Chewy
[00:02] <ubotu> Chewy: Are you sure your question allows us to help you? Please read http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html to understand how to ask a 'better' question.
[00:02] <icesword> hello
[00:02] <claudio75> danand: thanks a lot...you've been patient and gentle
[00:02] <icesword> i am back
[00:02] <claudio75> danand: :)
[00:02] <Slart> you're question? really slart... shape up.. shesh..
[00:02] <mewshi> Can someone help me with my wireless?
[00:02] <Chewy> ok anyway, im not sure what the problem is, that when i start firefox, it loads for like 2 seconds then imediately the program closes
[00:02] <danand> claudio75 - no problem ... my pleasure
[00:02] <arakthor> How can I stop gnome-power-manager from running? It causes problems for me on my laptop, the work around is to disable it, but I don't want to have to kill it everytime I start the machine again
[00:02] <kenro> Hope Hardy is solid enough...
[00:02] <mad_max02> Slart, I just ran that script and I got some strange stuff. I'll paste it in pastebin uf ur wiling to check them out
[00:02] <danand> claudio75 - you learn fast :)
[00:03] <claudio75> danand: ciao
[00:03] <Slart> Chewy: try starting it from a terminal.. that way you'll see the errors
[00:03] <kostkon> Chewy, open a terminal and give "firefox" to run it from there
[00:03] <Slart> mad_max02: sure.. seems I'm on a roll =)
[00:03] <bod_> Chewy, open a terminal and type   firefox        then pastebin the error messages (if any)
[00:03]  * bod_ curses at Slart for beating him to the response
[00:03] <Chewy> ok
[00:03] <Chewy> ill come back here if i get any
[00:03] <Chewy> :)
[00:03] <Chewy> im currently on other pc
[00:03] <Slart> finally my gold plated keyboard is paying off... carpal tunnel syndrome.. here I come =)
[00:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Chewy, Did you install flash?  and how did you install it?
[00:04] <stormze1> Slart: Now that I've read the wiki, I might change my scripts to work differently.  (They were kind of slow...)  Thanks alot!
[00:04] <mrunagi> is it possible to see the contents of a locked folder on an OSX hard drive?
[00:04] <Chewy> I installed it from the flash website linux version
[00:04] <bod_> Jack_Sparrow, flash wouldnt stop firefox from loading,.,.would it?
[00:04] <deadlyallance259> what is a good pice of software i can apt-get that alowes me to do a video capture of my desktop
[00:04] <Slart> stormze1: you're welcome
[00:04] <icesword> Jack_Sparrow, does sygate have a linux firewall
[00:04] <EmmerP> hi
[00:04] <bod_> Chewy, get it from epo's,.,.more reliable
[00:04] <bod_> repo's*
[00:04] <EmmerP> What do I need to do to get vlc working with firefox-3.03b?
[00:04] <Jack_Sparrow> bod_, There are some poorly written plugins that would.. or corrupt flash
[00:05] <Chewy> the problem is, now i cant even access internet, and it worked fine until i updated ubuntu
[00:05] <bod_> Jack_Sparrow, oh, ok,.,.i thought if they were that bad, they wouldnt be released
[00:05] <fentontravers> how do I open port 8080 on ubuntu server 7.1
[00:05] <mewshi> i have a bcm4318 chipset.  It seems to have been disabled somehow, and I screwed around and used different solutions to try to get it to work.  The light comes on, and it lists "wlan0_rename" in the network selector applet, but it never works.  can someone help me out, please?  I'd appreciate it! :D
[00:05] <Slart> fentontravers: it's usually open.. you have to have something listening on the other side though
[00:05] <icesword> fentontravers, are you working on apache
[00:06] <fentontravers> I've got oracle xe running a webserver on that port...I know it's running cause I can telnet to locally, but I need to access from outside
[00:06] <fentontravers> so I know the port must be closed off.
[00:06] <Chewy> so could it be an update issue?
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> bod_, I have seen a few pwople with problems directly related to bad plugins.. not sure where they got them.. that is a whole nother matter.  Chewy.. have you installed any other plugins.. and have you ever used automatix or envy scripts
[00:06] <Slart> fentontravers: you might have to tell it specifically to listen on the external network interface.. you have to do that with ssh and apache for example
[00:06] <bod_> Chewy, unlikely,.its your the first case ive seen of this recently,.,.
[00:07] <bod_> del=its ^^
[00:07] <fentontravers> slart_how do I do that?
[00:07] <Chewy> no other plugins, and niether of those, i am a Ubuntu/linux first timer, so i dont know what im doing, ive been getting help from someoen though
[00:07] <tinman> hmm, I have managed to figure out my x server is NOT working (I havent even touched the configueration) (chrooting through live cd and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with ALL default option didnt to the trick)
[00:07] <drew_> hi, stupid question, how do I move the panel back from the side to the top?
[00:07] <Slart> fentontravers: I have no idea.. I've never used oracle
[00:07] <mewshi> i have a bcm4318 chipset.  It seems to have been disabled somehow, and I screwed around and used different solutions to try to get it to work.  The light comes on, and it lists "wlan0_rename" in the network selector applet, but it never works.  can someone help me out, please?  I'd appreciate it! :D
[00:07] <Slart> drew_: tried dragging it?
[00:07] <bod_> Chewy, in terminal type            sudo apt-get purge firefox && sudo apt-get install firefox
[00:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !broadcom
[00:07] <ubotu> Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[00:07]  * danand just spent 10 mins googling ciao to find out what it stood for ...
[00:08] <drew_> Slap_Sti1k, there is no where to click
[00:08] <drew_> oops
[00:08] <Chewy> will that reinstall firefox?
[00:08] <mad_max02> Slart, here it is http://www.pastebin.org/21769
[00:08] <bod_> Chewy, correct
[00:08] <mewshi> No, it was working.  Then it got disabled.  Now it doesn't anymore.
[00:08] <drew_> Slart, , there is no where to click
[00:08] <Chewy> ok
[00:08] <Jack_Sparrow> bod_, I would pull out flash and use the repo version too..
[00:08]  * danand - not an acronym ... just italian for bye :)
[00:08] <drew_> Slart, it is all taken up with stuff
[00:08] <Slart> drew_: just click anywhere on the panel.. or you caN't see it?
[00:08] <Chewy> and i tried another browser too, but it would load google, and the home page but had trouble otherwise
[00:08] <bod_> Chewy, also uninstall the flash thing you got, then install the correct one from synaptic
[00:08] <Slart> drew_: oh come on.. you can find one little spot to click on.. or you'll have to remove something
[00:09] <Chewy> how do i uninstall
[00:09] <bod_> Chewy, sounding more and more like flash
[00:09] <Chewy> hmm
[00:09] <Slart> mad_max02: doesn't it offer to do that for you?
[00:09] <drew_> Slart, I really have to remove something? that strikes me as a bug
[00:09] <bod_> Jack_Sparrow, i was gonna suggest it but i thought maybe see if its a bad install first,.,.but if othe browser has probs then flash may be the prob,.,.;~)
[00:09] <Jack_Sparrow> bod_, You may also find something odd in his sources list...
[00:09] <bod_> drew_, just because its broken doesnt mean its a bug
[00:10] <Slart> drew_: there might be some secret shortcut key voodoo combo.. but I don't know one... dragging is the only way I know of
[00:10] <judgen> !nvidia mobile
[00:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidia mobile - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[00:10] <bod_> Jack_Sparrow, true,. but why would that stop firefox?
[00:10] <drew_> bod_, a feature then ? ;)
[00:10] <judgen> help... i cant get video to work properly.
[00:10] <Jack_Sparrow> bod_, I am thinking a script was used by his friend to try and get him going..
[00:10] <mad_max02> Slart, Yeah it asks to add these lines to /etc/modules
[00:10] <bod_> drew_, yer,.,.if you like ;~)
[00:10] <Slart> drew_: you can change it in "properties" too.. but then you have to rightclick on the panel..
[00:10] <Slart> mad_max02: let it do it's magic
[00:10] <mad_max02> Slart, you think I should add them ?
[00:10] <mewshi> ok, I have discovered that I have the kernel driver loaded.  However, it doesn't seem to like me.  How can I go about fixing this, and make it work again?
[00:10] <bod_> Jack_Sparrow, what sort of script?
[00:10] <Slart> mad_max02: that's why you ran the program in the first place =)
[00:11] <bod_> Jack_Sparrow, flash downloading script?
[00:11] <Chewy> so how would i uninstall flash?
[00:11] <judgen> i need help nvidia driver wont work, and nv just dont cut it. what  do i do??
[00:11] <mad_max02> Slart, okay lets try
[00:11] <tinman> Hi Jack_Sparrow, my x server that had worked for pass 6 month is now sudenly not workign and I have not even touched the configuration, (I tried chrooting with live cd and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with all the default options (seve selected) and didnt work) . Now I just get a gray screen when I should get a login screen
[00:11] <mad_max02> Slart, should I reboot after that or something ?
[00:11] <judgen> i mean BeOS have better 3d support for gods sake at this point
[00:12] <bod_> Chewy, not sue, you'd need to know the name of the plugin you donloaded
[00:12] <Slart> judgen: buy a new computer.. if indeed the nvidia driver wont work..   if you want help with the nvidia driver that's another thing of course..
[00:12] <mewshi> judgen, did you use the ubuntu package of the nvidia driver?
[00:12] <bod_> Chewy probably flash
[00:12] <Jack_Sparrow> tinman, what about recovery mode...  can you get into that  and from there can you startx
[00:12] <Chewy> it is flash, just from the FLASH website
[00:12] <Slart> mad_max02: I'm not sure.. can't really remember
[00:12] <judgen> mewshi, yes
[00:12] <bod_> Jack_Sparrow, r u getting my pm replies>
[00:12] <bod_> ?
[00:12] <judgen> Slart, its an mobile chipset that has accelerated 3d in BeOS
[00:12] <mewshi> Try using the official driver directly from nvidia
[00:12] <Slart> mad_max02: try running some kind of application that uses those sensors..
[00:12] <tinman> Jack_Sparrow: Go to recovery mode and manually start x?
[00:13] <drew_> Slart, bod_ I've had to remove the clock and user switcher
[00:13] <mohbana> Hey guys any idea when the icedte plugin is going to be fixed? i can't run azureus because of it, and i dont intend to isntall sun's eithe
[00:13] <miladen> when i put in my new external harddrive it says: hal-storage-removable-mount-all-options refused uid 1000... Why cant i do anything with it?
[00:13] <Jack_Sparrow> tinman, Just a thought.
[00:13] <judgen> Slart, nforce4 go
[00:13] <Jack_Sparrow> bod.. no
[00:13] <mad_max02> Slart, I'll just reboot
[00:13] <Slart> judgen: and the restricted driver doesn't work?
[00:13] <mewshi> judgen, go get the official nvidia driver from nvidia, and install it
[00:14] <judgen> Slart, as nvidia does not develop any go driver before geforce7, sadly no
[00:14] <Daisuke_Laptop> mewshi: wouldn't apt-get install nvidia-glx-new be better?
[00:14] <judgen> mewshi, does not work as nvidia has never made the drivers for nvidia go
[00:14] <bod_> Jack_Sparrow, would    sudo apt-get purge flash               remove the flash he downloaded ,. or will it scew other things up?
[00:14] <judgen> untill now
[00:14] <mewshi> no, because i had a similar experience with the ati driver
[00:15] <Slart> judgen: what chipset does the videocard use?
[00:15] <mewshi> the ubuntu package had problems, but the offical driver worked great, and even automatically detected my proper dual-head setup :D
[00:15] <rene> hello everybody
[00:16] <rene> wont install flashplayer in fluxbuntu
[00:16] <Daisuke_Laptop> mewshi: ati != nvidia
[00:16] <rene> ?
[00:16] <amenado> miladen-> as soon as you plug in your external hd you get that error?
[00:16] <Daisuke_Laptop> expect ati problems, nvidia works a whole lot better.
[00:16] <miladen> as soon as i try to open it yes
[00:16] <rene> kazehakase
[00:16] <rene> ?
[00:16] <mewshi> Daisuke? O_o
[00:16] <miladen> as soon as i try to open it yes amenado
[00:16] <rene> howto install flashplayer in kazehakase ?
[00:16] <bod_> Chewy, search Synaptic for Flash, anything that is installed called 'Flash' mark for complete removal
[00:17] <mewshi> yes, daisuke, I know they're not the same
[00:17] <mewshi> I was just relation an anecdote about the ubuntu package not being 'right'
[00:17] <amenado> miladen-> without opening it, type mount and paste the line for this partition here
[00:17] <Slart> judgen: I think you might be able to see the chipset.. or at least the device id by running "lspci -v" and looking for the videocard part
[00:18] <miladen> amenado this partition? it is just called media
[00:18] <amenado> miladen should be just one line am interested in
[00:18] <Daisuke_Laptop> mewshi: understandable.
[00:18] <amenado> miladen well paste the result of mount..specifically just for that problematic partition
[00:18] <boolka> when is the next ubuntu release? are there any screenshots availble?
[00:18] <mewshi> april
[00:18] <Daisuke_Laptop> boolka: april, and it's going to look about the same
[00:18] <bod_> boolka, 8.04
[00:19] <mewshi> and i'm testing it atm
[00:19] <Daisuke_Laptop> mostly under-the-hood improvements
[00:19] <mewshi> it's pretty nice so far :D
[00:19] <Daisuke_Laptop> there is a big theme change coming in october with the release of 8.10 (or so i've heard)
[00:19] <miladen> amenado in the terminal i type mount and then what?
[00:19] <boolka> interesting
[00:19] <bod_> Daisuke_Laptop, 8.10?
[00:19] <mewshi> they should provide girl-friendly themes :P
[00:19] <amenado> miladen paste it here, i can not read your mind, so i can see here
[00:19] <bod_> Daisuke_Laptop, codename?
[00:20] <Daisuke_Laptop> but with 8.04 being a long-term support release, it's not happening yet
[00:20] <Daisuke_Laptop> bod_: intrepid ibex
[00:20] <amenado> miladen well paste the result of mount..specifically just for that problematic partition
[00:20] <boolka> is there a list of improvements?
[00:20] <Daisuke_Laptop> which i hate saying :D
[00:20] <Daisuke_Laptop> boolka: not yet
[00:20] <bod_> Daisuke_Laptop, what a stupid name,.,.;~)
[00:21] <Daisuke_Laptop> bod_: hence why i hate saying it
[00:21] <Daisuke_Laptop> i like ignoble iguana :D
[00:21] <bod_> Daisuke_Laptop, what does ignoble mean?
[00:21] <amenado> miladen have I lost you?
[00:22] <mewshi> it means not noble
[00:22] <bod_> oh, ok,. ty
[00:22] <bod_> Daisuke_Laptop, i agree,.that name is better
[00:22] <nfusco> If i have a partition of 50Gb for a fresh install, i want to have: /, /home, /swap - what partion sizes  should I pick for each?
[00:22] <jeffMASTERflex> an ibex is a horrible animal. lion snack is all it is
[00:22] <EmmerP> who's got VLC with Firefox 3.03b working?
[00:23] <mewshi> EmmerP: there's no such thing as 3.03b in firefox yet
[00:23] <combat_> nfusco: /swap = size of ram, / = 6-8GiB, /home rest
[00:23] <Slart> nfusco: I'd use 10 GB for everything but home... swap should be about 2GB or so.. twice your memory... and the rest for /home
[00:23] <EmmerP> 3.0b3 sorry
[00:23] <Daisuke_Laptop> probably 3.0b3
[00:23] <Daisuke_Laptop> wow, i'm good.
[00:23] <bod_> combat_, its usually swap = ram *2
[00:23] <EmmerP> I see video, but don't see controls... or right-click menu
[00:23] <combat_> bod_, why?
[00:24] <tinman> Anyone good with x servers? :s
[00:24] <bod_> combat_, because swap isnt as good as physical memory,. so you need more,.,. its usually suggested to have twice the amount
[00:24] <Slart> the swap=ram*2 is an ancient rule passed down from our ancestors.. noone knows why.. =)
[00:24] <jeffMASTERflex> combat_: if you have over a gig of ram, it's safe to make it the same size as the ram
[00:24] <nfusco> twice meory or same as memory or does it really matter? machine has 3Gb...
[00:24] <acee1234> are there any linux programs that can encrypt a cd simular to full drive encryption?
[00:24] <nfusco> 3gb memory
[00:24] <bod_> !anyone | tinman
[00:24] <ubotu> tinman: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[00:24] <Chubbyone> Got a dvd/ cd drive that plays dvd's but wont recognise cd's
[00:24] <tinman> bod_: I have asked it 10 times hence simplifying the question :\
[00:24] <LimCore> what is the difference betwen server and normal edition?
[00:24] <LimCore> server edition is the same tihng only it installs less by default?
[00:25] <combat_> bod_, its an old opinion, i only need swap for hibernate, and therefore it has the same size as my ram
[00:25] <LimCore> combat_: it is totall bullshit to "use x2 more swap then you have ram"
[00:25] <bod_> combat_, fair play ;~)
[00:25] <Slart> acee1234: you could create a truecrypt volume and burn that to a cd.. I suppose
[00:25] <Daisuke_Laptop> !wtf | LimCore
[00:25] <ubotu> LimCore: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[00:25] <Slart> LimCore: I think the server version doesn't install gnome/kde/xfce
[00:25] <Daisuke_Laptop> the most common number is 1.5x ram
[00:25] <bod_> tinman, well people come and go all the time,. a question that isnt eally your question is unlikely to get you an answer
[00:25] <LimCore> Slart: but it is the same distro, only it installs less by default?
[00:26] <nfusco> so just match the size of your ram then?
[00:26] <Slart> LimCore: it's the same distro
[00:26] <jeffMASTERflex> LimCore: server version includes apache, mysql and php and no GUI
[00:26] <mewshi> it depends on how much ram you have
[00:26] <LimCore> Daisuke_Laptop: that is totall bull rainbow as well
[00:26] <nfusco> mewshi, 3gb of RAm
[00:26] <acee1234> Slart: ill give it a go
[00:26] <bascule> nfusco: the old 2x RAM is a bit old thinking, but if you wan to suspend you will need more than 2x ram
[00:26] <mewshi> nfusco then prolly... like... 1GB swap
[00:26] <LimCore> swap_size = RAM_SIZE - memory_your_applications_need_at_once * 1.2 + 128 mb
[00:26] <tinman> bod_: Somehow my x server crashed (I havent touched the configs) so i chrooted through a live cd then dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and used all teh default options (seve was selected) but the problem still presists
[00:26] <LimCore> so basicly, use 2 gb swap.
[00:26] <LimCore> or less
[00:27] <bascule> tinman: describe problem
[00:27] <mohbana> Hey guys any idea when the icedte plugin is going to be fixed? i can't run azureus because of it, and i dont intend to isntall sun's eithe
[00:27] <SimplySeth> is there a graphical proggy that lets me add boot entries to grub ?
[00:27] <jeffMASTERflex> merde extraordinaire, i see
[00:27] <bod_> tinman, well,. im off in a min, so you should prob address the channel,. not just me
[00:27] <Daisuke_Laptop> LimCore: forgive me for offending the almighty swap god.  i was just quoting the most common number bandied about
[00:27] <LimCore> SimplySeth: like, kate
[00:27] <mewshi> Ok, I need help fixing my internet configuration settings
[00:27] <SimplySeth> LimCore: cool .. kate .. thanks
[00:27] <mewshi> I A) don't want to see wlan0_rename anymore
[00:27] <combat_> SimplySeth, /boot/grub/menu.lst is self-explaining, u dont need a tool for it
[00:27] <Daisuke_Laptop> and for most users, who have 1-2gb ram, 1.5x ram is a perfectly sane amount.
[00:27] <LimCore> Daisuke_Laptop: ok you ar forgiven, next time dont quote stupid old superstitions
[00:27] <mohbana> Hey guys any idea when the icedte plugin is going to be fixed? i can't run azureus because of it, and i dont intend to isntall sun's eithe
[00:27] <void^> mohbana: on 64bit?
[00:28] <mohbana> void^, yes
[00:28] <warriorforgod> I am having problems burning cd's in 7.10.  Is anybody else having any issues?
[00:28] <bod_> !elaborate | warriorforgod
[00:28] <ubotu> warriorforgod: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel)
[00:28] <mewshi> b) want my bloody wireless to work
[00:28] <LimCore> warriorforgod: k3b works fine here. what is the problem
[00:28] <nfusco> thanks guys
[00:28] <SimplySeth> combat_: yeah .. I'm a vi master .. but I'm out to show the world that Ubuntu can be as mindlessly easy to configure as the worst OS :)
[00:28] <void^> mohbana: there seems to be an issue with the build environment, who knows when it will be figured out..
[00:28] <Daisuke_Laptop> LimCore: perhaps you could try not being a dick and sharing this information before calling people and ideas "stupid"
[00:28] <Slart> warriorforgod: I have problems too.. my problem is that I don't have any blank cds.. what is yours?

[00:29] <mohbana> void^, it works perfectly fine on fedora 8 64 bit, what seems to be the matter, can't they just resolve it
[00:29] <combat_> SimplySeth, most people in the world dont need to add boot-entries :D
[00:29] <Kuwanger> How do I find out all packages (installed or not) that depend on a package?
[00:30] <warriorforgod> I have been able to burn cd's find up until today.  I cannot seem to blank a cd-rw or burn one without gnomebaker, or Write-to-disc saying there was an error in burning.
[00:30] <bascule> a GUI wouldn't be so hard, browse for kernael image, set sane defaults that can be configed with an advanced button, easy really
[00:30] <LimCore> Kuwanger: perhaps in synaptic or other gui (or not gui) package manager by browsing dependencies info
[00:30] <SimplySeth> combat_: unless they have a lost boot partition somewhere :-/
[00:30] <jeffMASTERflex> Kuwanger: if you use synaptic, it will tell you when you right click on a package and select properties
[00:30] <SimplySeth> combat_: but good point
[00:30] <Slart> Kuwanger: there are probably better ways.. but you could try removing it and see what goes with it.. use the -s switch to simulate
[00:30] <SimplySeth> LimCore: thanks for tryin' ta help :)
[00:30] <void^> mohbana: like i said, an issue with the build environment. if you build it yourself (from ubuntu sources even) it will work just fine.
[00:30] <mewshi> Why not set up different channels for different topics?
[00:31] <LimCore> mewshi: there are many other channels =)
[00:31] <amenado> there are already
[00:31] <Slart> mewshi: it would be very very confusing for the people trying to help out
[00:31] <SimplySeth> combat_: I'm bloggin' the setup of my Lappy too .. :)
[00:32] <LimCore> !elaborate SimplySeth
[00:32] <mewshi> hm... well, still, then if someone has, say, a wireless problem, they could go to #ubuntuWireless or something
[00:32] <mewshi> instead of this crap here
[00:32] <amenado> its is not crap
[00:32] <SimplySeth> *hands mewshi some TP
[00:32] <LimCore> mewshi: this is a good idea which some people try to implement ;) want to help?
[00:32] <Slart> mewshi: and noone would be there.. we'd all be in the general channel
[00:33] <jeffMASTERflex> mewshi: that would be too specific and the helpful folks would have to switch between lots of different channels. horrible idea
[00:33] <mewshi> Having so many different topics that it's impossible to keep track IS crap, sorry :\
[00:33] <SimplySeth> mewshi: what Wireless device are you running ? what is your issue ? have you used KWLan ?
[00:33] <AtomicSpark> anyone use firestarter, firewall for ubuntu?
[00:33] <amenado> mewshi-> you have apache issues? visit apache channel, java? java channel
[00:33] <SimplySeth> AtomicSpark: yes ?
[00:33] <jeffMASTERflex> mewshi: if you are down to provide support for the wireless problems, then by all means, go ahead and do it
[00:34] <mewshi> yeah, but those channels don't have over 1000 people all talking about DIFFERENT THINGS
[00:34] <mewshi> it's REALLY hard to keep track :\
[00:34] <combat_> erm, whats happened to the hidd tool in the bluez-utils package in hardy? cant connect my bluetooth devices anymore
[00:34] <LimCore> mewshi: want to help with such idea?
[00:34] <jeffMASTERflex> imagine that, people complaining about free support
[00:34] <zeeeee> is there any way to "merge" two ext3 partitions? one is / and the other is /export/home; i'd like these to not be partitioned.
[00:34] <amenado> the beauty of open source, great minds comes together. :P
[00:34] <Slart> mewshi: you can always start by putting the name of the person you're talking to first in the line
[00:34] <SimplySeth> combat_: is it in gnome-bluetooth ?
[00:34] <zeeeee> (both contain data that i need to preserve)
[00:34] <AtomicSpark> SimplySeth: i just installed it and it's blocking TCP connections already from a public ip address (i am behind a firewall) and i dont have port forwarding enabled. this is probably stuff from gaim being blocked correct? i have nothing else running.
[00:35] <SimplySeth> AtomicSpark: that would be a good guess .. yes
[00:35] <combat_> SimplySeth, no it belongs to bluez-utils, but i reinstalled bluez-utils a few times and there appaers no hidd :(
[00:35]  * AtomicSpark found lookup hostname option
[00:35] <AtomicSpark> heh aol
[00:35] <amenado> zeeeee-> not in one shot, save both to a temporary dir, repartition or merge the two, then move the temp over
[00:35] <zeeeee> amenado, thanks!
[00:35] <combat_> suddenly, hidd disappeared after a bluez-utils update, a few weeks ago
[00:36] <mcview> @zeeeee: copy /export/home to a temporary location in your "/", afterwards use eg. gparted and repartition
[00:36] <AtomicSpark> SimplySeth: should i allow or ignore? only thing that works in pidgin is p2p from and to pidgin lol.
[00:36] <mewshi> I'm trying to be helpful
[00:36] <SimplySeth> AtomicSpark: disallow unless you really really really know you need it :)
[00:36] <Hilikus> how to i expand the partition where root is mounted?? it seems i need to unmount a partition to extend it but i cant unmount /
[00:36] <SimplySeth> Hilikus: 'cause / is your c:\ drive ?
[00:36] <combat_> Hilikus, boot a livecd
[00:37] <SimplySeth> Hilikus: try gnoppix or knoppix :)
[00:37] <Hilikus> SimplySeth no, its not, but i cant unmount it
[00:37] <AtomicSpark> SimplySeth: k thanks. :D maybe this will protect my computer a bit more.
[00:37] <amenado> Hilikus-> not in one shot, save to a temporary dir, repartition  then move the temp over
[00:37] <amenado> Hilikus-> you can not unmount what you are using now
[00:37] <SimplySeth> AtomicSpark: yeah FireStarter even does internet connection sharing
[00:37] <jeffMASTERflex> Hilikus: i siggest using the gparted live cd. because it's a root partition you can't unmount it when you log in to your computer
[00:37] <Hilikus> cant i just use the ubuntu live cd?
[00:38] <SimplySeth> Hilikus: you can :)
[00:38] <combat_> does nobody know whether hidd is gone? :P
[00:38] <amenado> but do not forget to save, just in case...
[00:38] <Hilikus> amenado save what? you mean backup the partition?
[00:38] <amenado> Hilikus you like to take risk? go ahead and just move things around.without saving
[00:38] <Slart> good night everyone
[00:38] <combat_> Hilikus, backup your data
[00:39] <Hilikus> oh yeah, i have that already
[00:39] <combat_> ok
[00:39] <SimplySeth> combat_: funniest thing .. I just did apt-get install  bluez-utils and its there
[00:39] <billy> sup guys
[00:39] <combat_> which version is it?
[00:39] <Hilikus> is it even possible to extend a ext3 partition??
[00:39] <SimplySeth> combat_: 3.19
[00:39] <amenado> extend in what sense?
[00:39] <Pelo> Hilikus, yes it is  you just need room
[00:39] <combat_> ok in hardy its 3.26 already
[00:40] <SimplySeth> combat_: ahhh bleeding edge .. nvm :)
[00:40] <Hilikus> amenado i removed a partition i had before to store media, now i dont need that and want to give it to /
[00:40] <juannicolas> Hi, I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 server and trying to do a file transfer  via ftp or samba of a file more than 4.0Gb from a windows machie to thise server and everytime the file reach the 4.0GB file size the conection or transfer breaks.
[00:40] <jeffMASTERflex> Hilikus: / is  a waste of space. add it to /home if you have a separate home partition
[00:41] <amenado> Hilikus-> yeah per the other gentleman, use it for /home instead of expanding /
[00:41] <combat_> juannicolas, which file system goes the file to? fat32 only supports 4gb files
[00:41] <Pelo> juannicolas, what is the FS onthe window machine ?  fat32 is limited to files size of 4gig
[00:41] <Hilikus> jeffMASTERflex its not, i actually need more space when creating dvds, thats /tmp which is /
[00:41] <juannicolas> combat_ so maybe thats the problem, the HD in my ubuntu is fat32 (160GB)
[00:42] <amenado> juannicolas-> try scp  you maybe surprised that it will work
[00:42] <juannicolas> scp
[00:42] <juannicolas> on windows?
[00:42] <jeffMASTERflex> Hilikus: in most burning programs you can set the tmp directory. also, you could always make a separate temp partition if that is the case
[00:42] <juannicolas> how can I do a file transfer of more than 4.0GB?
[00:42] <amenado> juannicolas-> from linux, you can scp
[00:42] <SimplySeth> what size blocks does fdisk show ?
[00:42] <AtomicSpark> SimplySeth: i switch from wireless to lan a lot, will this be a problem for me? seems to only detect one at a time.
[00:42] <juannicolas> yes, but this time is from windows to linux
[00:43] <combat_> juannicolas, get another FS, fat32 does not even support acess restrictions
[00:43] <SimplySeth> AtomicSpark: not really .. if you don't mind switching it in FireStarter :)
[00:43] <_Marek_> hi all
[00:43] <amenado> juannicolas-> if it has sshd (openssh) you can

[01:05] <tinman> Rawr, any better resource on how to reconfigure xserver-xorg? o reven use a .conf from a few days ago when it was working (I havent changed ay thing and it stopped working) :<
[01:06] <LimCore> gamma
[01:06] <LimCore> oh thanks Seveas.
[01:06] <Blaze2011> VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel and execute '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv start' as root.
[01:06] <mad_max02> How can I use extra desktop effects with newest Nvidia drivers ????
[01:06] <Blaze2011> Thats what terminal says when I try to start it
[01:06] <lollo_> a good program that can match ( in a sequence ) more videos together ? ?
[01:06] <lollo_> and a music background too :P
[01:07] <mad_max02> How can I use extra desktop effects with newest Nvidia drivers ????
[01:07] <stormze1> I had to take the -e from the command echo -e out of my scripts because it was adding "-e" into the output;  Now the scripts are being interpreted so that they're not escaping the \t's.  What's going on?  Is this another dash thing?
[01:07] <Scunizi> Blaze2011, sounds like maybe you had a kernal upgrade (or sideways) and vbox doesn't know how to talk to it.. reinstall vbox.
[01:08] <bastid_raZor> l815; technically firefox 3 isn't out yet.. you can play with the beta though .. package firefox-3.0

[01:09] <Blaze2011> Ok I'll try it I did run apt-get update and upgrade and it made me restart but why would that screw up X-Server?
[01:09] <tinman> j_: it's not being auto detected?
[01:09] <j_> Flare183 i can't see it or view it it say you are not privilged to mount the volume 'name'
[01:09] <lollo_> a good program that can match ( in a sequence ) more videos together ? ?

[01:09] <kenro>  wha dis ting? http://mfrost.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2008/02/26/old_camera_446.jpg
[01:09] <l815> bastid_razor, i know, but will it require me to do something funky like linking my current installation?
[01:10] <j_> tinman with sudo /media/ ????
[01:10] <j_> tinman with sudo where dir?
[01:10] <bastid_raZor> l815; it'll be as if you installed a fresh browser. no theme or add-ons or bookmarks.. etc but so.. it is beta
[01:10] <tinman> sudo -t vfat /dev/name /mount/point -o rw
[01:10] <bastid_raZor> l815; you can have both ff2 and ff3 installed at the same time.. no worries
[01:10] <mad_max02> How can I use extra desktop effects with newest Nvidia drivers ????
[01:10] <l815> bastid_razor, alright thanks for the response :)
[01:10] <tinman> j_: that worked for me, see if it works for oyu
[01:11] <tinman> j_: err sudo mount <options here> in terminal
[01:11] <j_> tinman where is the dir for flash drive
[01:11] <tinman> j_: in /media/ probably
[01:11] <j_> tinman i know drivers are /media but dont see the flashdrive
[01:11] <bastid_raZor> l815; sure.. ff3 has some great features..
[01:12] <tinman> j_: it's sdb for me (gusty)
[01:12] <Kuwanger> How do I find out all packages (installed or not) that depend on a package?
[01:12] <l815> bastid_razor, do you know if ff3's buttons look better, or do i also have to install the widgets?
[01:12] <bastid_raZor> l815; widgets for? the buttons look fine.. i'm sure there is a screenshot available if you google
[01:13] <LimCore> what should I use... noobuntu that messes kernel so much I dunno how to rebuild it, or oldbian with outdated versions of software I need, hmmm
[01:14] <lollo_> a good program that can match ( in a sequence ) more videos together ? ?
[01:14] <Blaze2011> It says I need to install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-server when I try to run Restricted Drivers Manager to fix my video card...
[01:14] <LimCore> how to rebuild a kernel so that it will work fully; last time I builded vanilla kernel for ubuntu it didnt worked fully.  Should I apply some extra drivers / patches etc?
[01:14] <l815> bastid_razor, okay, if you google "ubuntu firefox buttons" the first link should be what i'm talking about
[01:14] <mad_max02> How can I use extra desktop effects with newest Nvidia drivers ????

[01:14] <teqsun> mad_max02 Do you have the envy drivers?
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> !envy | teqsun don't recommend that
[01:15] <ubotu> teqsun don't recommend that: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[01:15] <teqsun> hmm
[01:15] <teqsun> Sorry indy
[01:15] <KiD_ChAoS> why do i get a "sound device is in use" when i'm trying to play a new music file with xmms. I usually have to wait 2 minutes between songs for them too play successfully
[01:15] <l815> oh wow the font with ff3 is hurting my eyes T-T
[01:15] <Blaze2011> Hmm and apt-get says it can't find the package
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> teqsun: i could care less, it just does more harm than good
[01:15] <teqsun> does it./;
[01:15] <dark> hola algun español queme pueda echar una mano
[01:15] <dark> ?
[01:15] <bastid_raZor> l815; i see.. cool.
[01:15] <Odd-rationale> !es | dark
[01:15] <teqsun> If you have a better driver please let me know.
[01:16] <IndyGunFreak> teqsun: if you use it, you will soon find out
[01:16] <teqsun> please let me know why :)
[01:16] <ubotu> dark: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[01:16] <IndyGunFreak> cuz you'll end up reinstalling when it screws up.
[01:16] <teqsun> argh
[01:16] <teqsun> I just want a hassle free driver installation for my nvida geforce 8600gt
[01:16] <l815> bastid_razor, ff3 font looks different, it hurts my eyes haha
[01:16] <bziobnic> I have the Intel ICH9 chipset. Does anyone know if there is a driver available that will let me use the esata port?
[01:16] <teqsun> I figure I'll be reinstalling shortly heh
[01:16] <warriorforgod> teqsun: Did you try the restricted drivers manager before install envy?
[01:16] <Frogzoo> !compile | LimCore
[01:16] <ubotu> LimCore: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)
[01:17] <Frogzoo> !kernel | LimCore
[01:17] <ubotu> LimCore: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - For more: /msg ubotu stages
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> teqsun: well, envy will cause you more hassle than compiling the driver.
[01:17] <teqsun> hmm
[01:17] <teqsun> Im kinda a linux nub when it comes to compilin
[01:17] <KiD_ChAoS> why do i get a "sound device is in use" when i'm trying to play a new music file with xmms. I usually have to wait 2 minutes between songs for them too play successfully
[01:17] <mad_max02> teqsun, I installed newest nvidia drivers via envy. now I cant enable extra desktop effect
[01:17] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, ^^
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: well, thats your own fault.
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> good luck
[01:18] <bastid_raZor> l815; yeah, i guess my system theme has an effect that i didn't realize. i like my OSX buttons a bit better :)
[01:18] <jeffMASTERflex> teqsun: you don't really have to "compile" anything. the nvidia driver provides a script that builds the driver against your kernel
[01:18] <teqsun> oooh wait.  I went to nvidia.com and they were giving me trouble when I tried to install their binarys
[01:18] <l815> bastid_razor, oo maybe you should share it with me :D
[01:18] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, what do you mean ?
[01:18] <teqsun> but that was before I enabled the restricted stuff....
[01:18] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, what did I do wrong ??
[01:18] <stormze1> IndyGunFreak: What are you supposed to do when the restricted drivers don't work?
[01:19] <NetM> Hello
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> stormze1: either install the drivers from Nvidia's site, or wait till its supported, trust me, i understand, i've got an unsupported intel chipset, but it works fine on 8.04 Alpha 5
[01:19] <l815> anyone here use ff3?
[01:19] <dark> hay algun español queme pueda ayudar?
[01:19] <teqsun> hrm how does one get the 8.04 alpha?
[01:19] <stormze1> IndyGunFreak: Oh; which chipset do you have?
[01:20] <jeffMASTERflex> l815: what is the problem?
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> 965BM, or something like that..
[01:20] <Comet> !es | dark
[01:20] <ubotu> dark: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[01:20] <warriorforgod> teqsun:
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> teqsun: download it.... just google "Ubuntu 8.04 alpha", and it will pop up
[01:20] <teqsun> nice
[01:20] <l815> jeffmasterflex, the font looks horrible compared to ff2 and i read it has to be compiled with cario to fix it?
[01:20] <stormze1> IndyGunFreak: Ah-hah.  That might be my problem, too.  ( G965WH )  You're using the alphas?
[01:20] <teqsun> I hear they fix the nvidia problems with splash in 8.04
[01:20] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, can you please tell me what did I do wrong ???
[01:20] <NetM> I m trying to install ubuntu @ my pc , when i choose install starting loading and then in screen nothing readable showing.. sorry for my english... anyone help ?
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: nothing, you did everythin right, thats why it works
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> geez
[01:21] <teqsun> NetM what graphics card are you using?
[01:21] <mad_max02> I dont get it ?
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> stormze1: i'm not using the alpha now, its dual booting with gutsy, but yes, it works perfectly with my intel chipset
[01:21] <NetM> Nvidia 6600 le
[01:21] <teqsun> NetM I have an nvida 8600GT and I was having trouble
[01:21] <mad_max02> should i remove envy and reinstall driver or something ?
[01:21] <jeffMASTERflex> l815: definitely do not have that problem. the fonts look exactly the same to me. and i am using 3b3 and 3pre4
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: do whatever you want
[01:21] <teqsun> I just removed the splash option from the boot and it worked.  just wait a few min after your monitor turns off and see if that doesnt work
[01:21] <warriorforgod> NetM: restricted driver manager should work for 6600.  That is the same card I have.
[01:21] <mad_max02> dude I asked for help because I dont know what to do
[01:22] <mad_max02> not because I'm bored
[01:22] <stormze1> Oh -- alpha as in Hardy?
[01:22] <IndyGunFreak> stormze1: yes.. as in Hardy
[01:22] <NetM> How can i remove splash screen from setup ?
[01:22] <l815> jeffmasterflex, that's strange :/, I googled it and it seems to be a common problem
[01:22] <teqsun> I think its F6
[01:22] <warriorforgod> NetM: Wait, wrong response.  When does the screen get garbled?
[01:22] <teqsun> lets you choose boot options
[01:22] <teqsun> just delete it from the list
[01:22] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: unfortunately, helping you at this point, will be more headache than its worth
[01:22] <Name141> Should I install the nVidia linux driver for my video card ?
[01:22] <stormze1> foo.  ( hehe )
[01:22] <NetM> Hmmmmmm
[01:22] <lollo_> i'm in the folder extracted manually from the tar.gz, i type ( like the instruction suggest) ./configure in the folder but it says DIRECTORY NOT FOUND !!!!
[01:22] <warriorforgod> Name141: What card?
[01:22] <NetM> Graphics.........
[01:22] <lollo_> what could it be ?
[01:22] <NetM> Whatever u think :P
[01:22] <teqsun> Worked for me NetM
[01:22] <NetM> Ok lets try
[01:22] <stormze1> well, good to know it'll work in the next one..
[01:22] <EitheL> Hmm i have a question
[01:22] <teqsun> my monitor turns off while the ubuntu bar is loading then it comes on
[01:23] <Name141> warriorforgod: nVidia GeForce 8300 GS
[01:23] <EitheL> When I go to add/remove program and i choose a program, it keeps on saying that the list needs to be refreshed or something and I click ok, and it downloads a file
[01:23] <jeffMASTERflex> l815: try using the swiftfox build and see if that solves any of your problems
[01:23] <EitheL> but then it keep sayin
[01:23] <EitheL> the list is outdated or something
[01:23] <warriorforgod> Name141: Try the restricted driver manager.  If that doesn't work, get the install script from nvidias site.
[01:24] <teqsun> how do you use the restricted driver manager?
[01:24] <teqsun> <--- nub
[01:24] <lollo_> i'm in the folder extracted manually from the tar.gz, i type ( like the instruction suggest) ./configure in the folder but it says DIRECTORY NOT FOUND !!!!
[01:24] <warriorforgod> teqsun: System -->  Administration --> Restricted driver mangaer
[01:24] <nikon252> could some please tell me how to fix this error?
[01:24] <teqsun> Thank you
[01:24] <lollo_> please smeone could answer me ?
[01:24] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, well atleast you can tell me what is wrong in this picture so I can not do it next time or something coz I tried to install drivers manually and failed every time
[01:24] <nikon252> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libvolume-id0_113-0ubuntu17_amd64.deb: files list file for package `mono-runtime' is missing final newline
[01:24] <jeffMASTERflex> teqsun: open it, it should be pretty explanatory when you open it up, there are only boxes to checkmark
[01:24] <teqsun> WOW
[01:25] <teqsun> Thanks guys Didn't even know this was here
[01:25] <EitheL> And also why am I not able to use my external hard drive in my linux computer
[01:25] <EitheL> and it says unable to mount

[01:25] <techII> ok, i want to toggle wwwoffle's (proxy that stores web pages for offline use) offline/online modes from network manager, how do i do this?
[01:25] <NetM> How can i remove it ?
[01:25] <teqsun> just wait like 5 min
[01:25] <teqsun> you hit backspace
[01:25] <teqsun> :)
[01:25] <Name141> warriorforgod: my hardware doesn't need any restricted drivers
[01:25] <NetM> I think that i cant change the options
[01:25] <NetM> Oooooooo
[01:25] <Name141> warriorforgod: is what it says anyway.
[01:25] <whiteguysamurai> internet connection sharing
[01:25] <NetM> I m noob
[01:25] <NetM> Sorry
[01:25] <NetM> :/
[01:25] <teqsun> me too :)
[01:25] <EitheL> When I go to add/remove program and i choose a program, it keeps on saying that the list needs to be refreshed or something and I click ok, and it downloads a file  and it keeps asking me to refresh the list so I can't install any apps...
[01:26] <warriorforgod> Name141: Go to nvidias site and grab the linux drivers
[01:26] <teqsun> eithel are you on a macbook?
[01:26] <EitheL> nop
[01:26] <teqsun> I had that same problem.

[01:26] <teqsun> sry.
[01:26] <EitheL> its ok
[01:26] <EitheL> mabye because acer just sucks :D
[01:26] <teqsun> ll

[01:27] <EitheL> i actually got my friend to install ubuntu on his comp since windows failed on his
[01:27] <NetM> *teqsun* "quiet splash" ?
[01:27] <Name141> warriorforgod: I am guessing http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_169.12.html
[01:27] <teqsun> keep quiet
[01:27] <teqsun> remove splash
[01:27] <EitheL> and i would install ubuntu on my comp if i could keep my windows runnin :P
[01:27] <NetM> :)
[01:27] <teqsun> or else its very... loud ;)
[01:27] <IndyGunFreak> EitheL: all you have to do is dualboot
[01:28] <EitheL>  dualboot...?
[01:28] <teqsun> I have it dualbooting with windows xp
[01:28] <NetM> Says "loading, please wait..."
[01:28] <NetM> :D
[01:28] <teqsun> k
[01:28] <IndyGunFreak> !dualboot | EitheL
[01:28] <ubotu> EitheL: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[01:28] <teqsun> just keep letting it load
[01:28] <Name141> I just use Vmware
[01:28] <teqsun> may take like 6 - 7 min
[01:28] <NetM> :D
[01:28] <teqsun> exciting aint it ;)
[01:28] <EitheL>  ooo
[01:28] <teqsun> I darn near jumped for joy when I got ubuntu to boot
[01:28] <teqsun> tried almost every distro I could get my hands on
[01:28] <maimster> Hi all.
[01:28] <l815> what's the terminal command to remove a folder with files inside?
[01:28] <warriorforgod> Name141: yes
[01:28] <IndyGunFreak> EitheL: short and sweet, you partition your hard drive, 1 partition for Ubuntu, 1 for Xp/Vista, and you get a menu when you turn on yoru PC, asking which to boot.. i'd say a majority of folks dualboot.
[01:28] <teqsun> rm -rf dir
[01:29] <teqsun> rm -rf "dirname"
[01:29] <l815> thanks teqsun
[01:29] <NetM> It says errors @ blocks :x
[01:29] <teqsun> yep
[01:29] <mouseboyx> Is there a hotkey to show desktop?
[01:29] <teqsun> Is your Master IDE device a hard drive?
[01:29] <mad_max02> anyone else that knows how to enable extra desktop effects with newest nvidia drivers installed ???
[01:29] <NetM> Sata
[01:29] <mouseboyx> ctrl+alt+d nvm
[01:29] <teqsun> ok
[01:29] <teqsun> I think all satas are masters ?
[01:29] <NetM> Yes
[01:29] <teqsun> just see if it goes past that
[01:29] <NetM> Shit
[01:30] <teqsun> uh oh
[01:30] <NetM> Same think with graphics
[01:30] <teqsun> wait
[01:30] <teqsun> just let it go
[01:30] <teqsun> its probably loading the ubuntu OS
[01:30] <maimster> mad_max02: What new features do you get when using the nVidia cards?
[01:30] <NetM> Its the same :/
[01:30] <teqsun> i kno
[01:30] <teqsun> just give it a few min
[01:30] <mad_max02> maimster, what do you mean ?
[01:30] <teqsun> did your monitor turn off?
[01:30] <NetM> Blue green screen with purple mouse
[01:30] <maimster> mad_max02 I have a few of them lying around.
[01:30] <NetM> No
[01:30] <teqsun> uhh
[01:30] <techII> anyone know if there is some place i can put scripts, that execute when network-manager comes up/down
[01:30] <teqsun> wow...
[01:31] <NetM> :/
[01:31] <maimster> mad_max02 I thought you were saying that you can different features.
[01:31] <kenro> For wishink me luck, upgradink to Hardy already.
[01:31] <mad_max02> maimster, I still dont get it what ur trying to ask me.
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> maimster: he's trying to use compiz... unfortunately his card requires the binary driver... and he's robably already hosed any chance of getting it to work by using envy
[01:32] <maimster> mad_max02 IndyGunFreak just explained it.  Thanks.
[01:32] <stormze1> IndyGunFreak: That's a "temporary hose", right?  Can't he just uninstall everything he installed?
[01:32] <maimster> Anyone having a problem with download speeds?
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> stormze1: not usually, thats why its such a bad idea.
[01:32] <maimster> My 7.10 is crawling....
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> its the same problem wiht automatix, easyubuntu, etc.
[01:32] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, I dont want to use compiz. Compiz works on my machine
[01:32] <marble53_> can someone help me with updating my alsa driver?
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: then what do you want to do?
[01:33] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, I just want to use plain and simple extra desktop effects
[01:33] <tinman> k, tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg plenty of time :<, i get an error, too many paramater given in line 47 in /gmd/defaultXserver or something similar
[01:33] <tinman> any way at all to fix this?
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: if compiz works, then extra should work, pure and simple.;
[01:33] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, there is none, normal, extra and custom
[01:33] <stormze1> oh. :(  I resorted to envy as well when the restricted drivers didn't work.  Oh well, doesn't sound like it will work for 965 anyway until the next release.
[01:33] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, nope. thats the problem.
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> don't know.
[01:33] <f4_> con
[01:34] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, I can select custom and use compiz but I cant select extra coz then it asks to enable driver which installs the old 100.xx one
[01:34] <Devourer> How I extract a .tar.gz file?
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: i really don't know, i dont' know how many times i can say that
[01:34] <joshaidan> Devourer: tar xvfz filename.tar.gz
[01:34] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, do you really think that envy is bad thing ?
[01:34] <dvarg388> Devourer, tar -xvfz
[01:34] <Devourer> joshaidan, thanks.
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: i don't *think* envy is a bad thing
[01:35] <teqsun> I made the mistake of installing kubuntu over ubuntu...
[01:35] <mouseboyx> In xchat is there a key to scroll up in the window?
[01:35] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, u just dont like it ?
[01:35] <teqsun> now all of my options and stuff are in weird places
[01:35] <stormze1> IndyGunFreak: .. I should have known from the crappy interface... hehehe
[01:35] <mad_max02> or its really that problematic
[01:35] <NetM> *teqsun* with "safe graphics" its ok :)
[01:35] <celi0us> !envy
[01:35] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: ok, i guess you didn't get it, I *know* is a bad thing
[01:35] <ubotu> envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[01:35] <NetM> Lets try :)
[01:35] <teqsun> hmm
[01:35] <teqsun> maybe you can install with safe graphics
[01:35] <teqsun> and install driverS?
[01:35] <NetM> Dunno yet
[01:35] <teqsun> you can boot into safe mode
[01:36] <NetM> Loading.
[01:36] <Logiar> I'm just curious. How do i uninstall stuff that I've installed by doing make install?
[01:36] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, ah. Ok. Then I should uninstall it ? I have problem coz I cant install driver manually
[01:36] <teqsun> uninstall
[01:36] <teqsun> ?
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: no.. cuz then you'll have more problems than yous tarted with most likely
[01:36] <teqsun> oh wait
[01:36] <teqsun> did you make uninstall?
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | teqsun geez.. there's 1200 people here
[01:36] <ubotu> teqsun geez.. there's 1200 people here: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:36] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, but I can always roll back to old 100.xx drivers
[01:36] <Ububegin> Is AVG a gud anti-virus software for Ubuntu... or any else , u guys can recommend
[01:37] <IndyGunFreak> mad_max02: you can do anything you like
[01:37] <teqsun> allrighty.
[01:37] <techII> also, anyone know how to automatically authenticate against cisco's clean access?
[01:37] <maimster> Ububegin: Have you tried Avast?
[01:37] <IndyGunFreak> Ububegin: you really don't need antivirus for ubuntu, unless you plan on protecting windows machines w/ it
[01:37] <IndyGunFreak> !virus | Ububegin
[01:37] <ubotu> Ububegin: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[01:37] <Name141> warriorforgod: I am guessing that the nVidia driver will help Ubuntu run better?
[01:37] <LimCore> are there gui tools to appArmored to configure it?  how secure is this solution?
[01:38] <juggaloreborn> can anyone tell me how to reg my nick on here?

[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> Ububegin: well, i wouldn't say none, but i'd say you really have to piss someone off to get one..lol
[01:39] <maimster> juggaloreborn /msg nickserv help should get you started
[01:40] <Gatton> Does hdparm / dma need to be set for SATA drives? Or does gutsy configure that automatically?
[01:40] <dvarg388> Good to know about the lack of virus thing, JUST made my first leap into Linux.
[01:40] <LimCore> dvarg388: therre are viruses etc for linux
[01:40] <maimster> I have never ran virus software within linux. In years....
[01:41] <LimCore> maimster: me too, but dont let the guards down
[01:41] <EitheL>  can spyware effect linux?
[01:41] <LimCore> maimster: btw, you didnt run skype? its accused of beeing spyware
[01:41] <Odd-rationale> !virus | dvarg388, you can read more here:
[01:41] <ubotu> dvarg388, you can read more here:: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[01:41] <LimCore> EitheL: yes
[01:41] <EitheL>  ahh like all spyware?
[01:41] <EitheL>  same as ones that will infect windows
[01:41] <maimster> LimCore I have a Skype account on a windows box, and on my Nokia phone never had a problem though.

[01:41] <tinman> x-server problem, i get a something/gdm/defaultXserver too many paramater given on line 47 when i boot, i have tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with no avail
[01:41] <Name141> !virus
[01:41] <ubotu> A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[01:42] <EitheL>  ahh I see
[01:42] <EitheL>  thanks :D
[01:42] <LimCore> wow this !virus entry is faulty
[01:42] <juggaloreborn> sweet
[01:42] <jscinoz> is it possible to use suspend2 to instead of the default suspend/hibernate functionality without using a custom kernel (e.g. as a module)?
[01:42] <magnetron> LimCore: why do you say that?
[01:43] <ogre_> hello everybody!)
[01:43] <nikon252> hi
[01:43] <LimCore> magnetron: there are TONS of troyans, worms, rootkits etc targetet at linux.  such fanboi articles do not help by false sense of security
[01:44] <magnetron> LimCore: the article is only about VIRUSES. please don't confuse viruses with other malware
[01:44] <juggaloreborn> but with linux, if you get a virus you go into Godmode (Use the CLI) and cleanse it
[01:44] <mouseboyx> How do you run commands with a keystroke in the terminal
[01:44] <LimCore> magnetron: users confuse it.  No viruses (omg omg)  ....but rootkits etc.
[01:44] <ogre_> I'm a newbie in Linux, plz help me fix the problem
[01:44] <juggaloreborn> whatcha need ogre
[01:44] <LimCore> ogre_: what problem
[01:45] <nikon252> could some please help me take care of this error:  E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libvolume-id0_113-0ubuntu17_amd64.deb: files list file for package `mono-runtime' is missing final newline
[01:45] <celi0us> LimCore: go google "rootkit"
[01:45] <EcoBlue> how will ubuntu handle a new dvd drive
[01:45] <LimCore> celi0us: and?
[01:45] <magnetron> LimCore: so we agree the article is not faulty
[01:45] <Jangari> when i run vpnc, it causes my connection to the server to choke, and eventually nautilus freezes. Even cd'ing to the server in a terminal freezes up. Any ideas?
[01:45] <teqsun> I just finished reading the article about the virii Awesome read!
[01:45] <EitheL>  Ecoblue: all you need are the driver and software to run DVDs from it
[01:45] <mouseboyx> how do you open something from the system try without a mouse?
[01:45] <magnetron> LimCore: it's just possible to misinterpret... as other texts
[01:45] <EitheL>  like VLC player
[01:45] <LimCore> magnetron: worms, viruses, same thing for end user
[01:45] <ogre_> I don't now how to chage xdm to kdm
[01:46] <ogre_> Kubuntu 7.10
[01:46] <magnetron> LimCore: no.
[01:46] <EcoBlue> EitheL, will it just detect it and use it?
[01:46] <EitheL>  also is there a shortcut for switching screens?
[01:46] <Odd-rationale> ogre_: Have you installed kdm ?
[01:46] <EitheL>  yep
[01:46] <EitheL>  works for me :P
[01:46] <nikon252> anyone able to solve that problem
[01:46] <ogre_> yes
[01:46] <LimCore> magnetron: I got my files deleted by a virus :((((   No... WAIT! it was a WORM not a virus! pheeeew!
[01:46] <EitheL>  ur comp should be able to detect it even before linux starts up
[01:46] <bluefoxx> ok, so i just got a new dvd drive and installed it, however, gxine wont detect it, and says something about dma mode rad failure from /dev/dvd. the device in question is a brand new lg super multi dvd burner with secure disk capabilities. how should i configure this device?
[01:46] <EitheL>  thats how ppl install linux anyway :P
[01:47] <magnetron> LimCore: worms don't do that, get your facts straight
[01:47] <LimCore> magnetron: some do, why not? or cause other damage
[01:47] <IndyGunFreak> magnetron: he apparentlly likes to imbelish a bit, in case you havent noticed
[01:47]  * magnetron is imbelished
[01:47] <LimCore> it might delete files on a host system (e.g., the ExploreZip worm)  -  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_worm
[01:48] <jarrettgreen> Evening guys. I've got a newb question here. I don't know what I'm even referring to - perhaps DNS, so I don't really know where to start looking for tutorials. Here's my scenario. I've got a Dapper box up and running. Everything is awesome, working well togheter, ftp, ssh, apache, etc. I have a static IP from my cable provider, and have routed port 80 on that IP to the box. I work with a hosting company for our corporate
[01:48] <LimCore> magnetron: either you, or wikipedia article on Worms, is mistaken. I guess that you
[01:48] <NetM> Teqsun partition for boot , logical or primary ?
[01:48] <ogre_> I've installed fluxbox and KDE
[01:48] <bluefoxx> so how do i configure a new dvd drive in 7.10?
[01:48] <LimCore> bluefoxx: hmm what is there to configure? it should just work
[01:48] <magnetron> LimCore: yes, but does worms magically become viruses? no?
[01:49] <KiD_ChAoS> when i right click on a file and i go to Actions---> then Email, it always opens up with Kmail but i want to use evolution. i have changed many settigns trying to achieve the task but still i get krappy kmail. help me please
[01:49] <ogre_> Also I don't know how to add fluxbox to boot list
[01:49] <LimCore> magnetron: both viruses and worms can destroy user files; or do other damage. linux may be quite secure from viruses, but not so much from worms, which that fanboy style article forgotten to mentioned
[01:50] <bluefoxx> LimCore: for the most part, it does. however it doesnt appear as /dev/dvd and as such gxine cant seem to use it. also i dont belive the dvd reigon has been set in it
[01:50] <LimCore> ogre_: just install it
[01:50] <Odd-rationale> ogre_: Have you tried uninstalling xdm and reinstalling kdm? form command line, kill X.
[01:50] <Odd-rationale> from
[01:50] <KiD_ChAoS> when i right click on a file and i go to Actions---> then Email, it always opens up with Kmail but i want to use evolution. i have changed many settigns trying to achieve the task but still i get krappy kmail. help me please
[01:50] <teqsun> howdy yall... having to use Bitchx now
[01:50] <LimCore> KiD_ChAoS:   run kcontrol and change default applications there
[01:50] <maimster> teqsun: You mean there are other chat clients other than BitchX?
[01:51] <LimCore> KiD_ChAoS: and btw, kmail > evolution,  from what I've seen :)
[01:51] <guillaume> hi all
[01:51] <maimster> Hi
[01:51] <guillaume> im kind of new to this
[01:51] <Gatton> Thunderbird ftw ;-)
[01:51] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[01:51] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[01:51] <teqsun> does kmail support imap?
[01:51] <guillaume> i need to run a program from terminal
[01:51] <KiD_ChAoS> LimCore, i use an exchange server, Kmail doesn't have the wit for that
[01:51] <ogre_> Isn't possible do it by editinh any configs?
[01:51] <Jangari> woohoo!
[01:51] <Gatton> mmm splitteroo!
[01:51] <Jangari> yeeee haw!!
[01:51] <osxdude|laptop> wahooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[01:51] <Jangari> i love a good netsplit!!
[01:51] <magnetron> LimCore: power shortages may also damage your computer. so does your brother, or a corrupted hard drive or static electrical charges. they are not !viruses anyway.
[01:51] <teqsun> haha
[01:52] <Jangari> again again!!
[01:52] <Gatton> just like the good ole days
[01:52] <teqsun> so does kmail support imap?
[01:52] <guillaume> and then save the outoup
[01:52] <KiD_ChAoS> LimCore, i use an exchange server, Kmail doesn't have the wit for that
[01:52] <guillaume> outpu
[01:52] <Odd-rationale> teqsun: Yes.
[01:52] <teqsun> thank you odd
[01:52] <maimster> Anyone know the site for ubuntu forums?
[01:52] <LimCore> magnetron: most users mistake viruses for worms.  most users do NOT mistake viruses for brother
[01:52] <Gatton> ubuntuforums.org?
[01:52] <tinman> xserver is not loading.. can't get it to work..kill self
[01:52] <evilbat> http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php
[01:53] <magnetron> LimCore: you have apparently not met my brother
[01:53] <maimster> evilbat: Thanks.
[01:53] <evilbat> no problem
[01:53] <KiD_ChAoS> LimCore, it already has evolution in there, i made that change but still Kmail opens instead
[01:53] <LimCore> KiD_ChAoS: hmm not sure then... from every program?
[01:53] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, dude I just uninstalled both nvidia and envy
[01:53] <wols_> tinman: check your Xorg.0.log
[01:53] <KiD_ChAoS> yes
[01:54] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, do you maybe have any link to good install guide ?
[01:54] <LimCore> KiD_ChAoS: hmm not sure then... perhaps ask also #kamil and/or file a bug
[01:54] <KiD_ChAoS> do you know the evolution executable
[01:54] <tinman> wols_: then? :,
[01:54] <tinman> :<*
[01:54] <LimCore> KiD_ChAoS: evolution
[01:54] <guillaume> what is the comand to run a program in a console?
[01:54] <IndyGunFreak> !nvidia | mad_max02
[01:54] <ubotu> mad_max02: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:54] <NetM> Installing :)
[01:54] <KiD_ChAoS> LimCore, ok thankyou
[01:54] <guillaume> and Stay in the console
[01:54] <NetM> Error :x
[01:54] <wols_> tinman: then you pastebin its contents
[01:54] <LimCore> guillaume: open a console, then type the program name and press enter
[01:54] <wols_> guillaume: command&
[01:54] <LimCore> guillaume: to open a console use alt+f2 and type  aterm   or  konsole   and enter
[01:54] <tinman> wols_: okey, i did that last time, was told to dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, didnt help
[01:55] <rycole> hey guys, i just installed ubuntu, and i am trying to install xchat via the "Add/Remove" dialog. when i click the check mark for xchat, it tells me the list of applications is not available, and to click refresh. when i click refresh it seems to download a list (it says "download file 6 of 6") and then processes it, it looks like
[01:55] <tinman> wols_: brb, i'll reboot into live cd
[01:55] <rycole> but it does this every time i click the x next to xchat
[01:55] <rycole> any ideaS?
[01:55] <guillaume> but it's start the program in a window
[01:55] <LimCore> rycole: click apply
[01:55] <guillaume> I need to copy the result to pastebin/...
[01:55] <wols_> guillaume: so?
[01:55] <LimCore> guillaume:   what result?
[01:55] <guillaume> I get an error in gnucash and they asked me to do this
[01:55] <rycole> LimCore: the apply button is never enabled
[01:56] <guillaume> I need to open a invoice in the console
[01:56] <guillaume> no clue how to do that
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: just open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install xchat"
[01:56] <wols_> ubotu: you will see output in the xterm you can copy+paste
[01:56] <LimCore> guillaume: start an xterminal like  aterm   or konsole,   then write there   gnucash  and press enter
[01:56] <guillaume> yea
[01:56] <guillaume> gnucash is starting
[01:56] <LimCore> rycole: or just click APPLY instead refresh
[01:56] <guillaume> put can I stay in the console and use the program in the console
[01:56] <guillaume> ?
[01:56] <mouseboyx> what is the keyboard shortcut in gnome to give focus to the panel or , how do I select the system tray?
[01:56] <rycole> LimCore: there's *never* an apply button enabled for me to click.
[01:57] <wols_> an X program AWLAYS opens a GUI window
[01:57] <LimCore> guillaume: hmm?
[01:57] <mad_max02> IndyGunFreak, that guide is for installing restricted drivers which are old 100.xx ones.
[01:57] <LimCore> rycole: strange, perhaps indeed just use apt-get
[01:57] <wols_> but gnucash will write its errors in that xterm
[01:57] <LimCore> wols_: (actually not really always ;)
[01:57] <wols_> LimCore: when not?
[01:57] <guillaume> aaaaaa
[01:57] <guillaume> I see
[01:57] <rycole> IndyGunFreak: i tried that as well, and it says there's no xchat package. i even tried apt-get update, and it doesn't seem to download anything new.
[01:57] <guillaume> thanks
[01:57] <LimCore> wols_: one can make window-less X program
[01:57] <mrpockets> i need the command to force kill a program
[01:57] <baldio> is ubuntu a circus? www.ubuntu.de
[01:58] <LimCore> mrpockets: kill
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: hav eyou modified your source list?
[01:58] <mouseboyx> killall name of progam
[01:58] <dzer0> hello
[01:58] <KiD_ChAoS> who handles Kmail issues? there is no Kmail room here
[01:58] <rycole> IndyGunFreak: nope
[01:58] <rycole> do i need to?
[01:58] <LimCore> baldio: sure
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: maybe.
[01:58] <baldio> :D
[01:58] <LimCore> KiD_ChAoS: try #kde  or use some mailing list etc
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: open synaptic package manager.. system/admin/synaptic
[01:58] <mouseboyx> Is there a keyboard shortcut for pidgin to bring up the buddy list?
[01:58] <Ashnal> okay, so, a friend of mine left his computer installing updates and locked the screen so no one else could touch it, his sibling cold booted the thing into windows while he was gone and now the kernel is kaput and wont mount the root filesystem, so i fiured we need to rplace the kernel, so my question is, where can we obtain the kernel for gutsy and where do we put it? We will be using the windows ext3 driver to do this since he los
[01:58] <Lifeisfunny> I try ot do an update through the terminal and all I get is one line of.........    0% [Connecting to <IP_ADDRESS> (<IP_ADDRESS>)] [Connecting to <IP_ADDRESS> (192.16
[01:59] <guillaume> what does that mean: "gnc.bin-Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disabled at configure time."
[01:59] <dzer0> I recently installed Ubuntu 7.10 and then Windows XP on another partition. Is there a way to activate grub again from Windows?
[01:59] <Carbonflux> http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> dzer0: you'll have to do it from the live CD
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> !grub | dzer0
[02:00] <ubotu> dzer0: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: were you able to install from there
[02:01] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Um, what do you mean it won't mount the root filesystem?  Does it say it doesn't exist or is the kernel hanging in some bizarre way?
[02:01] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Further, what about the recovery mode option?
[02:01] <computer09809> do i need a hub or a router? i have a print server
[02:01] <rycole> IndyGunFreak: i don't see an xchat package in this. it looks like a different package manager?
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: click settings/repositories
[02:02] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: 14.319125 kernel panic - not syncing:VFS:unable tomount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[02:02] <Ashnal> recovery mode does the same thing

[02:02] <rhineheart_m> Hello! Is anybody of you here knows postfix very well? I've been trying to visit #postfix and send messages there but nobody responded.
[02:02] <rycole> i have download from main server chosen
[02:02] <rhineheart_m> m configuring it work in my ubuntu box
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: thats fine, are all the boxes checked? on the top under "download from the internet"
[02:03] <tinman> wols_: okey, i am pastebinning
[02:03] <rycole> no, none are
[02:03] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Is block(0,0) the right place to be mounting?
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: thus the problem,check them all
[02:03] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: I have no idea
[02:03] <nikon252> how do I recover .deb packages that fail to install
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: after checking them all, apply changes, then in synaptic, click "reload"
[02:03] <mouseboyx> nevermind i enabled mousekeys
[02:03] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: but the OS is installed at the beginning of the disk so i think
[02:04] <rycole> IndyGunFreak: ok, this seems to be working. it's downloading about 45 files.
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: right, now, you can either search synaptic for xchat, and install it, or go to add/remove, or in a terminal, sudo apt-get install xchat
[02:05] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: See, my guess would be either (a) the wrong locations is being pointed to or (b) initramfs wasn't created properly.
[02:05] <Lifeisfunny> anybody have a good website that can teach someone about compiling programs?
[02:05] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: In any case, your easiest option would be to boot the Ubuntu Live CD and go from there.
[02:05] <Lifeisfunny> sorry, that might be for offtopic
[02:05] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: umm i stated that the liveCD was lost
[02:05] <rycole> IndyGunFreak: thanks. i have to say, desktop linux has come a long way since i last used slackware/freebsd back in 2000, or so. :P
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: a LONG way
[02:05] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Make a new one?
[02:06] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: not an option, could you answer my original questions please?
[02:06] <rycole> yeah, i almost fell out of my chair in shock at the graphical install
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:06] <rycole> and how sound actually worked out of the box.
[02:06] <jarrettgreen> Hey guys. I have a newb ? here. I don't really know what I referring to, but I think it's a DNS thing. Here's my scenario. I have a Dapper box up and running, everything works good. I ahve a static IP, and our router points port 80 to our box. I use a seperate hosting company and would like to have dev.ourcompany.com point to out box. With my host I can redirect (which just resovles to the ugly IP but works) or do a CNAME
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> hardware support is quite good now days
[02:06] <praetor> Lifeisfunn: http://tldp.org/FAQ/Linux-FAQ/development.html
[02:07] <rycole> yeah, i just need to figure out this wireless adapter issue. it says i need some proprietary firmware, or something. i
[02:07] <jarrettgreen> I guess the reason i can do a namesever thing from my host is because this is a sub-domain- is what I want even possible?
[02:07] <rycole> will have to do some googling.
[02:07] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Fine, but I still doubt it's the kernel that's the issue.
[02:07] <tinman> wols_: http://pastebin.ca/922867 <- the x log you wanted me to pastebin
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: whats yhour wireless chipset?
[02:07] <jsteezey> rycole what wireless do you have/
[02:08] <rycole> well, it's a newer dell laptop, so im sure it'll have some support somewhere. it was telling me the chipset in a notification earlier.. let me see if i can find it again
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: open a terminal, "lspci" no quotes.. see how it identifies your wireless device
[02:09] <jsteezey> or lsusb depending lol
[02:09] <wols_> tinman: this is not the one when it doesn't work, is it? you get vesa loaded with it. what vga chipset do you use?
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> true, well i'm assuming its internal.
[02:09]  * wols_ bets it's a broadcom. oh joy
[02:09] <jsteezey> right i did also when i bought this new box
[02:09] <tinman> wols_: umm, inbuilt intel vedio card?
[02:09] <jsteezey> mine is usb though
[02:09] <jsteezey> rt73
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: how does it work?
[02:10] <wols_> tinman: so why is acpi and agpgart not working?
[02:10] <jsteezey> great with the Ralink drivers
[02:10] <rycole> umm.. the output of lspci is at http://dpaste.com/37294/
[02:10] <jsteezey> the one is the repo are horrible
[02:10] <tinman> wols_: when it dosent loat it points to something/gdm/defaultXserver or something similar and says too many paramaters on line 47
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: whats the specific make/model of your device?
[02:10] <jsteezey> also i had to blacklist all the other Ralink modules
[02:10] <rycole> broadcom, you were right wols_ :P

[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: what model USB wireless device do you have?
[02:12] <wols_> genbuntu: some other program already uses the port nessus wants to use
[02:12] <jsteezey> uh its a Ralink rt73
[02:12] <amenado> genbuntu-> which port your nessus is attempting to use?
[02:12] <BoostedSS> if I have a program that I want to start up automatically how do I do it?
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: thats a chipset isn't it?
[02:13] <tinman> wols_: okey, it's /etc/gdm/failsafeXServer and somethign about too many parameters on line 47, that what i  get when i try to boot in
[02:13] <genbuntu> wols, amenado: how to I check which prot nessus or other program is trying?
[02:13] <rycole> IndyGunFreak: ok ill check that link out. that's the thing it was giving me in the notification earlier, btw. the bcm43xx :P

[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> rycole: lol
[02:13] <jsteezey> IndyGun: I guess
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: well i don't think ralink makes a usb device, thats strictly a chipset.
[02:14] <amenado> genbuntu-> look to its manual? readme files?
[02:14] <tomd123> does anyone know of any tool which will tell you the bandwidth usage/ total bandwidth used in the past 24 hours, hopefully something like a graph that just sits in my desktop bar

[02:15] <tristanmike> Hi all...weird thing happening. I've tried installing DVD playback using the instructions found under "Help and Support" in the menu, and when it didn't work, I went to the Ubuntu Documentation site for Restricted Codecs, but now my DVD-RW doesn't read discs and I get "cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!" and "end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 4" in messages. Any ideas ?

[02:16] <wols_> tinman: errors never say "somethign about" so don't try to fool me
[02:16] <amenado> genbuntu-> research what it uses as ports
[02:16] <on_hiatus> hello...
[02:16] <genbuntu> amenado: do u remember what was the command to view all the internet applications which are using ports ? (something similar to "top" ) ?
[02:16] <tinman> wols_: i didnt say error said that, that is me trying to remember it..
[02:16] <bastid_raZor> Jahromeo;  avant-window-navigator and awn-core-applets-bzr

[02:19] <on_hiatus> i'm currently running Ubuntu 5.10... tried to load 7.10... coiuldn't load it... not enough RAM... question: will incremental upgrades one release at a time allow me to reach 7.10 without using up all available RAM?

[02:20] <jarrettgreen> Hey guys. I have a newb ? here. I don't really know what I referring to, but I think it's a DNS thing. Here's my scenario. I have a Dapper box up and running, everything works good. I ahve a static IP, and our router points port 80 to our box. I use a seperate hosting company and would like to have dev.ourcompany.com point to out box. With my host I can redirect (which just resovles to the ugly IP but works) or do a CNAME
[02:20] <genbuntu> amenado: hmm.. i checked with netstat and lsof but the TCP port 1241 doesn't seem to be in-use . (nessus uses tcp 1241)
[02:20] <wols_> !repeat | jarrettgreen
[02:20] <ubotu> jarrettgreen: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[02:20] <tristanmike> on_hiatus, how much RAM do you have ?
[02:21] <Jahromeo> I think I might give gnome a go kde is too buggy for me atm
[02:21] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak: I was using Sabayon with KDE on the box before
[02:21] <prettyricky> Hey guys what can I use to increase the hard drive space since I only allowed 10 gig for the installation of ubuntu. Is there anything that I can repartition my drive?
[02:21] <KiD_ChAoS> how do i edit my context menus (ie. right-click menu) in kde?
[02:21] <genbuntu> amenado, can I manually stop that port's use : tcp 1241?
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: never cared for sabayon., are you sure thats the right model number?.. can't find one of that model for belkin
[02:21] <amenado> genbuntu-> those port are not showing in lsof -i ?
[02:21] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak: and it listed it as Ralink USB wireless device so i just assumed and i didnt no nothing about it
[02:21] <AutoMatriX> hi folks, which firewall does one use with gutsy ? and how can I be notified of an intrusion in realtime ?
[02:21] <jarrettgreen> wols_ thanks for the repeat............
[02:21] <zero> hi any one can help me with a problem with a card reader ?
[02:21] <genbuntu> amenado, nope :(
[02:21] <on_hiatus> less than the 384 (approx.) that I seem to need... a full 7.10 install conks out at 82% complete...
[02:21] <wols_> jarrettgreen: no thanks for yours
[02:22] <tristanmike> KiD_ChAoS, check out #kubuntu
[02:22] <amenado> genbuntu can you try moving the nessus port to something without conflicT?
[02:22] <genbuntu> amenado, lsof -i only shows 5 ports in use : 4 of pidgin and 1 of xchat
[02:22] <KiD_ChAoS> tristanmike, thanx
[02:22] <Jahromeo> on_hiatus i had that problem
[02:22] <amenado> genbuntu-> netstat -aup same?
[02:22] <jarrettgreen> how do I change a users password that I've just created?
[02:22] <on_hiatus> & how did you fix it, jahromeo?
[02:22] <wols_> on_hiatus: how much do you have?
[02:22] <hoarycripple> tinman, log in on a terminal CTRL-ALT-F1 and issue the command: sudo modprobe intel-agp
[02:22] <amenado> genbuntu-> netstat -atup same?
[02:23] <Jahromeo> on_hiatus is it a kubuntu or ubuntu install
[02:23] <zero> any one get a card reader on aspire 3680 working ?
[02:23] <bastid_raZor> jarrettgreen; in a terminal sudo passwd username
[02:23] <on_hiatus> as I said... about 380 +/-
[02:23] <killerbeesateme> AutoMatriX:  I've had good luck with a program called Firestarter
[02:23] <hoarycripple> tinman, and then try restarting gdm: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:23] <wols_> on_hiatus: ubuntu needs "only" 256MB
[02:23] <Jahromeo> on_hiatus what installed is it ubuntu/kubuntu?
[02:23] <Jahromeo> installer*
[02:23] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:how can i find out cuz i went to Ralinks website and that was the only one that was listed under RT73 chipset along with one other Linksys device
[02:23] <genbuntu> amenado, netstat -aup gives a list of only UDP ports, and none of them are 1241.
[02:23] <hoarycripple> tinman, also, you can check if intel-agp is loaded:  lsmod |grep intel-agp
[02:23] <foibles> whats a good rss feed program?
[02:23] <hoarycripple> tinman, and check the output of that
[02:23] <on_hiatus> jahromeo: regular old Ubuntu (gnome)
[02:23] <amenado> genbuntu-> netstat -atup same?
[02:24] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: lsusb in a terminal should say
[02:24] <tristanmike> on_hiatus, have you tried the alternate disc with the text based install and opt out for installing any of the eye-candy ?
[02:24] <AutoMatriX> killerbeesateme, thanks
[02:24] <Jahromeo> ok on_hiatus and 82% is scanning mirrors?
[02:24] <killerbeesateme> AutoMatriX:  no problem.
[02:24] <on_hiatus> tristanmike: no
[02:24] <Jahromeo> kubuntus 82% is scanning mirrors thats where i got stuck , can fix that
[02:24] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak: when i do that it doesnt list a wireless device
[02:24] <Jahromeo> is ubuntu the same?
[02:24] <AutoMatriX> killerbeesateme, that gives you a real-time warning ? or can it be configued that way ?
[02:24] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[02:25] <on_hiatus> jahromeo: not sure I understand your reply... old noob disease...
[02:25] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:it just list other devices
[02:25] <tinman> hoarycripple: i am on live cd, should i do that in recovery mode
[02:25] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: is your wireless device connected to a USb device?
[02:25] <Jahromeo> on_hiatus when it says 82% what part of the install is it busy doing "scanning mirrors"
[02:25] <IndyGunFreak> *port
[02:25] <KiD_ChAoS> now im going to ask a bunch of questions and i want you to answer them immediately
[02:25] <tristanmike> on_hiatus, I'd say if Jahromeo has a solution for you, great, otherwise, I'd suggest doing the text based install and see if you have better luck
[02:25] <killerbeesateme> AutoMatriX:  Yes, it will place a program in your system tray that will turn red with alerts...if I remember correctly.  I havne't used it for a while
[02:25] <jarrettgreen> bastid_raZor what are the default permissions given to a user?
[02:25] <tinman> hoarycripple: also, i fond the error using google, the forum said dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg fixed one guys problem but the the other ones
[02:25] <on_hiatus> no... if i understand you... no... I'm working off a cd
[02:25] <Jahromeo> I had this issue with Kubuntu and I fixed it so if ubuntu installer is similar nowdays it might work
[02:26] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:its in the back of the box
[02:26] <killerbeesateme> AutoMatriX:  it's pretty easy to set up too, it will also monitor active connections too
[02:26] <on_hiatus> ok, tristanmike...thx
[02:26] <IndyGunFreak> hmm
[02:26] <Jahromeo> yes but during install when it reaches 82% is installer displaying "scanning for mirrors" e.g. does it get stuck when its scanning for repositories?
[02:26] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:all i had to do was srew on the attena
[02:26] <IndyGunFreak> ok.
[02:26] <genbuntu> amenado, hmm.. netstat -atup gives some tcp and udp ports . Some tcp ones are like :*:nfs , *:netbios-ssn , localhost:ipp etc..
[02:26] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: You can download a kernel here: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.22/linux-image-2.6.22-14-386_2.6.22-14.46_i386.deb
[02:26] <on_hiatus> not that I recall...
[02:26] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:it just said it was usb in network menager
[02:26] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:the one that is in the KDE
[02:26] <genbuntu> amenado, but none specifically 1241
[02:26] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[02:26] <Jahromeo> on kubuntu when it gets stuck at 82% it is a bug with scanning the repo's what I do for that is enable/disable network card
[02:26] <on_hiatus> stupid noob should have written that down...
[02:27] <Jahromeo> and installer carries on
[02:27] <tristanmike> on_hiatus, out of curiosity, do you get an error telling you you're out of RAM ? or is that an assumption ?
[02:27] <on_hiatus> ... and next time i will
[02:27] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: so its actualy in a PCi lot?
[02:27] <AutoMatriX> killerbeesateme, ok, so I will not get into trouble if I plugin a windows machine via ethernet ?
[02:27] <Jahromeo> so if its a mirroring issue disable network card / internet then install
[02:27] <on_hiatus> tristanmike... assumption
[02:27] <KilllerKlown> can anyone help me with xcompmgr here please>?
[02:27] <amenado> genbuntu am not familiar with nessus nor what port 1241 is..
[02:27] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:maybe
[02:27] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:lol i feel like a noob
[02:27] <wil> hi, When I type shift 2, I get ¨ instead of the usual quote mark... this is a problem as I cant do querys on google and I have a similar problem with apostrophe. How can I put the normal ones on?
[02:27] <on_hiatus> it seems to load slowly... then stop at about 82%
[02:27] <tristanmike> on_hiatus, have you confirmed the disc is good by doing a check on it ?
[02:27] <amenado> genbuntu-> are you sure those are the port it uses  now?
[02:27] <bastid_raZor> jarrettgreen; what you give them.
[02:28] <tinman> and wols http://pastebin.ca/922893 that's the EXACT error i am getting
[02:28] <on_hiatus> yes... worked just fine on my friends machine
[02:28] <Jahromeo> is the install direct from the livecd like kubuntu on_hiatus?
[02:28] <levander> Are there any good GUI video editors available?
[02:28] <tristanmike> cool
[02:28] <KilllerKlown> xcompmgr is giving me a continuous error... someone please help
[02:28] <jsteezey> IndyGunFreak:i dont even now what device it is but i had to compile the rt73 drivers and it works now lol
[02:28] <KiD_ChAoS> now im going to ask a bunch of questions and i want you to answer them immediately!
[02:28] <genbuntu> amenado, yes thats what someone posted on the internet
[02:28] <IndyGunFreak> jsteezey: ok.
[02:28] <on_hiatus> it is a live cd that can also be used for a traditional install
[02:28] <killerbeesateme> AutoMatriX: are you using the linux box as a firewall for the windows machine?  or are you just on the same network?
[02:28] <amenado> genbunt verify, it proly has a config file, look for it
[02:28] <genoobie> alright people...I'm a little desperate and I need some help...I'm trying to rescue my filesever HDD data and temporarily transfer it to a windows machine
[02:28] <amenado> genbuntu verify, it proly has a config file, look for it
[02:28] <Jahromeo> on_hiatus sounds the same as kbuntu install - if it gets stuck on 82% check if installer says "scanning for mirrors" if thats the case go into networking disable and enable network card / internet
[02:29] <on_hiatus> ok, jahromeo... thx
[02:29] <tristanmike> on_hiatus, yeah, for sure. Um, I still suggest if you still hit a roadblock, to do the text based install and see if you have better luck...however, the upgrade may work too...
[02:29] <genbuntu> amenado, okie . *runs off to look for more info*
[02:29] <genoobie> I have sysrecuecd booted and I'm staring at a command prompt, not quite remembering how to setup the SMB from command prompt
[02:29] <AutoMatriX> killerbeesateme, I'd like to 'dowload' some pics to my windowsmachine but I don't trust that thing :D don't know what's been going on with it and if it's contaminated or not
[02:29] <on_hiatus> thx, tristanmike
[02:29] <ffm_> How do I supress "gnome-session" 's many debug/warning messages?
[02:29] <pbj> hi! -- just installed Gutsy with alternate cd and can't even boot to a visible console. i think it's my ati x1550 causing problems. Can anyone help me?
[02:29] <KilllerKlown> help with xcompmgr please someone
[02:29] <tinman> http://pastebin.ca/922893 <- I am getting that error (regarding x server) can anyone help?
[02:29] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: You can use 7zip to extract the .deb file.
[02:30] <genoobie> ugh...okay
[02:30] <credible> Kuwanger: why are you using xcompmgr?
[02:30] <credible> err
[02:30] <on_hiatus> i'm starting to think that the sheer size is the problem... you know... the more complex the more likely to break
[02:30] <credible> KilllerKlown: ^^
[02:30] <KilllerKlown> i'm getting an error 182 when i run xcompmgr
[02:30] <KilllerKlown> please help
[02:30] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: is there any way to fix this without a liveCD? If not, is there a way to use the live CD to repair the installation without reformatting?
[02:30] <wil> hi, When I type shift 2, I get ¨ instead of the usual quote mark... this is a problem as I cant do querys on google and I have a similar problem with apostrophe. How can I put the normal ones on?
[02:30] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: And once you do, you should put the kernel image into /boot.  Now, that may be on the root partition or it may not be.  But if it is, you should also see a /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:30] <KilllerKlown> dude i'm running fluxbox ... its the shizzle
[02:30] <killerbeesateme> AutoMatriX:  well if you're looking to protect your linux box from it, it should work perfectly for you.  If you're plugging the windows pc directly into your linux PC, all bets are off of course.

[02:31] <ffm_> KilllerKlown: in any case ask in #fluxbuntu, we don't support itl.
[02:31] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Um, you said you were going to use the ext3fs driver.  I assume that means you know the filesystem is ext3 and you've installed said driver.
[02:31] <xeenan> Hey guyz noob ? here. Trying to install an ATI driver but when I click the installer I get an error box that says.....gedit has not been able to detect the character coding.
[02:31] <xeenan> Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file.
[02:31] <xeenan> Select a character coding from the menu and try again.
[02:31] <AutoMatriX> killerbeesateme, ok, tx for info, I'll find it out :D
[02:31] <xeenan> what should i do
[02:31] <wols> AutoMatriX: windows malware generally doesn't attack linux and vice versa
[02:31] <credible> KilllerKlown: xcompmgr is a worthless hack intended only as a "technology preview"
[02:31] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: i cant get the driver to work, so ill have to wait a while to get a live CD i suppose
[02:32] <_Oz_> what's fluxbox?
[02:32] <credible> it's extremely slow and rather ugly
[02:32] <AutoMatriX> wols, nice to know :D thanks, too

[02:32] <tristanmike> Hi all...weird thing happening. I've tried installing DVD playback using the instructions found under "Help and Support" in the menu, and when it didn't work, I went to the Ubuntu Documentation site for Restricted Formats, but now my DVD-RW doesn't read discs and I get "cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!" and "end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 4" in messages. Any ideas ?
[02:32] <on_hiatus> thx for all the help, all!  Have a good night.
[02:32] <xeenan> gedit
[02:32] <icesword> !fluxbox > _Oz_
[02:32] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: What's the problem with the driver?
[02:32] <ffm_> icesword: already did that.
[02:33] <icesword> ffm_, what?
[02:33] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: the machine was cold booted so no nothing was properly shut down and it was in the middle of updates
[02:33] <wols> tristanmike: on a console /etc/init.d/gdm stop   then run "startx" and then check your Xorg.0.log
[02:33] <icesword> oh i see
[02:33] <ffm_> icesword: I already sent oz that message,
[02:33] <ffm_> .
[02:33] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: it detects the filesystem as RAW and wants to format it
[02:33] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Ie, you're using an ext2 fs driver.
[02:33] <wols> tinman: on a console /etc/init.d/gdm stop also make sure NO X server is running at all then run "startx" and then check your Xorg.0.log
[02:33] <_Oz_> thank you, icesword
[02:33] <icesword> heheh
[02:33] <icesword> nope
[02:34] <xeenan> ya im useing gedit, im new to linux didnt know there was more that one installer
[02:34] <tristanmike> wols, what exactly am I looking for in that log ?
[02:34] <tinman> wols: okey
[02:34] <wols> tristanmike: sorry, worng nick complete
[02:34] <tristanmike> heh, LOL no worries :D
[02:34] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Have you considered making a recovery floppy, then mounting and unmounting root?
[02:34] <wols> tristanmike: have you rebooted since then?
[02:35] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: no floppy drive
[02:35] <tristanmike> yeah
[02:35] <tristanmike> I should clarify that "burned" dvd's do work
[02:35] <tristanmike> it's just Pressed Movie dvd's dont' work
[02:35] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Got a network connection to another machine that you trust?  Got a BiOS that supports netboot?

[02:36] <wols> tristanmike: answer my question
[02:36] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: I dont know if his computer supports netboot, but we can always use my computer for the one to connect ot
[02:36] <AtomicSpark> so when i try a fresh install of the alt cd, i get that problem where it freezes at "loading boot scripts". any ideas? I've read it's a problem with the inittab or event.d format is invalid, but a fresh install shouldnt have such bugs. this also happens with 8.04.
[02:36] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Then you could try a recovery netboot.
[02:37] <Ertain> Hello everyone.
[02:37] <tristanmike> wols, It doesn't work
[02:37] <Ashnal> Kuwanger:how do we go about that?
[02:37] <wols> tristanmike: come back if you can answer my question. good day
[02:37] <Ertain> I'm trying to remove this pack meant for Heady, but it won't uninstall.
[02:37] <Brakkvatn> Hello. When will the new ATI driver become available in ubuntu?
[02:37] <tristanmike> wols, I don't understand the question
[02:37] <TrichomeKid> Anyone familiar with GXMame?  I need to load the roms from a windows machine on the network
[02:37] <foibles> why does evolution keep freezing on me!
[02:37] <foibles> would anyone have any ideas?
[02:37] <bombi> Hi - anyone got exp in unerase files ?
[02:37] <wols> tristanmike: what commands did you use to get dvd watching work?

[02:38] <wols> bombi: what filesystem?
[02:38] <jarrettgreen> Hey guys. I have a newb ? here. I don't really know what I referring to, but I think it's a DNS thing. Here's my scenario. I have a Dapper box up and running, everything works good. I ahve a static IP, and our router points port 80 to our box. I use a seperate hosting company and would like to have dev.ourcompany.com point to out box. With my host I can redirect (which just resovles to the ugly IP but works) or do a CNAME
[02:38] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Download a tftp server.  Download a netboot image to server.  Run the tftp server.  And then netboot from the other system.
[02:38] <ffm_> wols: pardon me, I misread and didn't AGF.
[02:38] <wols> ffm_: I ask clear questions and I want answers to those questions. if they will tell me non sequiturs I stop talking to them. easy
[02:38] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: how do I perform the netboot on the computer booting?
[02:39] <icesword> !netinstall
[02:39] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[02:39] <ffm_> Ashnal: depends on the system.
[02:39] <wols> jarrettgreen: repeating it over and over won't help you especially when your question is so unclear
[02:39] <_Oz_> question: how can I mount an .ISO in ubuntu for viewing, like daemon tools would work in Windows?
[02:39] <Gatton> !fluxbox
[02:39] <ubotu> fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox
[02:39] <ffm_> Ashnal: see above from ubotu
[02:39] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Going into the bios and change the boot order so that netboot occurs before other booting.
[02:39] <mrpockets> best way to mount an iso in Ubuntu?
[02:39] <wols> _Oz_: yes
[02:39] <tristanmike> wols, I installed gxine, libdvdnav4, libdvdread3, libxine1-ffmpeg, totem-xine, build-essential, debhelper, fakeroot, then installed the libdvdcss script
[02:39] <ffm_> !iso > _Oz_
[02:39] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen: what are you trying to do?  I can try to help.
[02:39] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: At least, that seems the msot standard way BIOSs do it.
[02:39] <wols> tristanmike: where did you install that script from?
[02:39] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: okay thanks i will check to see if it supports netboot
[02:40] <killerbeesateme> jarretgreen:  a cname to your ip address should work...at least if i'm understanding your question right...
[02:40] <tristanmike> /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[02:40] <tristanmike> wols, ^^
[02:40] <wols> tristanmike: and that file you got from where?
[02:41] <wols> tristanmike: dpkg -S /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[02:41] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: If you do go with netboot, don't go with the ubuntu netboot installer image.  It doesn't have mount tools in the image.
[02:41] <tristanmike> it was on my computer, I'm assuming when i installed libdvdread3
[02:41] <tristanmike> wols, ^^
[02:41] <wols> tristanmike: wher did you get libdvdread3 then?
[02:41] <genbuntu> amenado, Yea the nessus document says that it listens to port 1241 by default. I even tried opening port 1241 from firestarter but no use .
[02:41] <Ashnal> Kuwanger: what will I wan to use?
[02:41] <tristanmike> wols, the ubuntu repositories
[02:41] <Chewy> hello
[02:41] <Chewy> i am back, and am still having firefox issues
[02:41] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Some sort of recovery image.  I'm currently searching around for one.
[02:42] <tristanmike> wols, done, reinstall ?
[02:42] <neonprophet> quick question, and yes I know there is a wine channel, no ones alive in there :)
[02:42] <neonprophet> hello all, can anyone think of a reason that playonlinux would make all the text and buttons disappear when I try to start wine without using playonlinux?
[02:42] <_Oz_> To mount an ISO image, ubotu tells me to use this syntax: sudo mount -o loop <iso filename> <mountpoint>
[02:42] <wols> tristanmike: you should have used medibuntu repos
[02:42] <_Oz_> what is the mountpoint?
[02:42] <wols> tristanmike: what did the script do? make a kernel module?
[02:42] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme: I don't know how else to say my question, as I'm unsure what I'm referring to. I need to make it so dev.server.com points to my dapper box
[02:43] <jarrettgreen> rather than getting to it from it's IP
[02:43] <Chewy> ok can someone help me, i run firefox and the second it opens, it closes, i ran in console and the error is "bus error"
[02:43] <wols> _Oz_: the directory where you want to mount the ISO
[02:43] <tristanmike> wols, I followed the instructions on the "Official" Documentation, I don't know what the script does....lol
[02:43] <jarrettgreen> wols_ you could have pointed out my question was unclear 40 minutes ago
[02:43] <wols> tristanmike: pastbein the scrip
[02:43] <wols> t
[02:43] <icesword> jarrettgreen, hahah,then you need a dns service
[02:43] <Chewy> anyone>
[02:43] <wols> jarrettgreen: stop whining please
[02:43] <genbuntu> amenado, is there a command to stop all net services, so that i can run nessus alone?
[02:43] <jarrettgreen> wols lol whining?
[02:43] <J-a-k-e> doesn anyone know how i might get better sound quality in ubuntu?
[02:43] <Chewy> anyone able to help>
[02:43] <Chewy> ?
[02:43] <wols> !volunteer | jarrettgreen
[02:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about volunteer - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:44] <neonprophet> Chewy, you have HAL installed I assume?
[02:44] <_Oz_> wols: okay, I did that, it says the directory does not exist, must I create it first?
[02:44] <jarrettgreen> awww your fun irc stuff didn't work
[02:44] <wols> jarrettgreen: this is a volunteerchannel. if you don't like it here, pay someone to give you support
[02:44] <Chewy> HAL???
[02:44] <Chewy> what is HAL
[02:44] <wols> _Oz_: of course
[02:44] <neonprophet> !hal
[02:44] <icesword> jarrettgreen, hahah,or anyway you get a domain name
[02:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hal - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:44] <neonprophet> grr
[02:44] <neonprophet> !HAL
[02:44] <wols> Chewy: hardware abstraction layer
[02:44] <_Oz_> wols: so I should just create a dir like /media/whatever/ ?
[02:44] <jarrettgreen> Icesword i have bind9 installed
[02:45] <jarrettgreen> I have a domain through another host
[02:45] <Xacarith> Easy question.  How do you disable dragging windows using alt+left mouse button And disable ctrl+alt+d to show desktop
[02:45] <Chewy> umm no? i dont know tell you the truth
[02:45] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  where does your domain point?  does it point to the public IP of the machine?  or does it point to somewhere else?
[02:45] <wols>  <dpkg> hal is probably a Hardware Abstraction Layer from freedesktop.org, which gives desktop software a programmatic way to examine
[02:45] <wols>              the hardware present in a system and be notified of its changes.
[02:45] <jarrettgreen> and just wanted to resolve the subdomain 'dev' to it
[02:45] <Chewy> so i need it?
[02:45] <icesword> jarrettgreen, is it on line ,and did you try ping your localhost,that name
[02:45] <wols> Chewy: usually yes
[02:45] <neonprophet> so, no closet wine wizards in here?
[02:45] <wols> neonprophet: #winehq ?
[02:46] <Chewy> hmm, well i cant download it if the internet wont work...
[02:46] <Chewy> if the browser i mean
[02:46] <wols> Chewy: it comes with your ubunut install by default
[02:46] <wols> and your browser doesn't have anything to do with HAL usually
[02:46] <tristanmike> wols, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57781/
[02:46] <Chewy> then i do
[02:46] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme - my main domain is hosted by another company. I can POINT dev.thatdomain.com to my IP, which is then routs port 80 t0 my box
[02:47] <jarrettgreen> but it ends up as the ugly IP in the browser
[02:47] <wols> Chewy: sudo ps aux|grp -i hal
[02:47] <jarrettgreen> rather than dev.
[02:47] <Chewy> wgat???
[02:47] <Chewy> type that into term?
[02:47] <Xacarith> Thought for sure some one would know those..
[02:47] <CrocoJet> hi for all
[02:48] <CrocoJet> someone knows if exist some software to generate a revocation certificate, and upload that to the keyserver ?
[02:48] <Gatton> !wine
[02:48] <ubotu> WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[02:48] <bombi> Anyone got Exp in unerasing files from a EXT2 Filesystem?
[02:48] <wols> tristanmike: pastbin your /var/log/dpkg.log
[02:48] <CrocoJet> (pgp)
[02:48] <wols> bombi: was it ext2 when you deleted the files?
[02:48] <techno_freak> CrocoJet, gnugpg?
[02:48] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  thats a weird one.  are you checking that address from where the dev box is?
[02:48] <genoobie> hey all...I need a little help
[02:48] <Chewy> so what do i do???
[02:49] <neonprophet> wow, I say "wine" and everyone ducks for cover ;p
[02:49] <_Oz_> thanks for the help wols, that worked
[02:49] <bombi> @ walls - jep didnt even change the FS yet
[02:49] <wols> neonprophet: I told you whre to go
[02:49] <Chewy> wols?
[02:49] <wols> your choice if you ignore it
[02:49] <genoobie> I just booted a linux live cd in an attempt to rescue a freebsd hdd
[02:49] <wols> Chewy: I asked you something
[02:49] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme - checking what address? my public IP?
[02:49] <_Oz_> neonprophet: let's just say that with virtualbox out there, WINE's days are somewhat numbered
[02:49] <Chewy> repeat please
[02:49] <wols> Chewy:  /lastlog wols
[02:49] <bombi> Is there a tool to recover my deleted data?
[02:50] <tristanmike> wols, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57782/
[02:50] <wols> bombi: midnight commander has one
[02:50] <Chewy> no such command!
[02:50] <chetnick> hi i'm running ubuntu gutsy and i have some problems viewing some web pages. I tried opera and firefox, same problem. Can somebody use this navigation menu on the left side on this page http://tncc.edu/
[02:50] <Devourer> How do I make mv create the directory if it doesn't exist?
[02:50] <genoobie> I'm really kind of desperate here...
[02:50] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  are you accessing "dev.mydomain.com" from the same internet connection as the dev machine?
[02:50] <Chewy> i dont see your question
[02:50] <jarrettgreen> I was. I'm not at the office now though
[02:50] <jarrettgreen> I can try it from hom
[02:50] <jarrettgreen> give me a sec
[02:50] <chetnick> or use calendar on http://www.vayama.com
[02:50] <bombi> thx wols man I'll try that out
[02:51] <wols> tristanmike: uninstall (and purge!) libdvdcss2 and all other packages you installed on behest of that dccu entry
[02:51] <wols> tristanmike: then reboot and try your dvd drive with a data dvd again
[02:52] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme I'm pretty sure the problem though is when I choose "redirect" in my hosts control panel, and type in my IP, it's just going to simply forward the domain to that one.
[02:52] <tristanmike> wols, data dvd's work fine, it's the encrypted "store bought" movie dvd's that don't, just in case you missed that part.
[02:52] <Chewy> so what do i do naw
[02:52] <wols> tristanmike: then it'S defintely your facked libdvdcss2 I guess
[02:52] <wols> so rmeove it and all should be well
[02:52] <tristanmike> wols, LOL
[02:53] <wols> !*fscked
[02:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fscked - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:53] <wols> !dvd | tristanmike
[02:53] <ubotu> tristanmike: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[02:53] <Chewy> anyone?
[02:53] <wols> tristanmike: medibunut has a  prbuild libdvdcss2 for you
[02:53] <tristanmike> wols, yeah, I have all that info....not so much a noob this time around ;)
[02:53] <tristanmike> wols, good to know, never really dabbled in medibuntu
[02:53] <pawan> how to enable automatic updates
[02:54] <wols> Chewy: in a termina: lynx www.google.com
[02:54] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme still resoles to IP
[02:54] <Chewy> i can user internet, thats my issue...
[02:54] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: Sorry, but I'm not finding anything specific.  :/  Floppy rescue distros seem common enough.  Let me look on freshmeat.
[02:54] <Chewy> so i cant google
[02:54] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme I can do a DNS transfer or a CNAME to my subdomain in my hosts panel
[02:54] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  so you're redirecting your whole domain to the router's address?
[02:54] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme
[02:54] <genoobie> okay...how do I start a simple ftp server...
[02:54] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme nope - I want to just redirect subdomain
[02:55] <pawan> have to check manullay to update
[02:55] <Chewy> so you cant help me?
[02:55] <bob> has anyone had luck getting vinagre to grab keyboard input?
[02:56] <bob> i can click all i want. just cannot type >_>
[02:56] <robdig> Chewy: hey, check /etc/firefox/firefoxrc, make sure that the option FIREFOX_DSP="none"
[02:56] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  so, do you have a CNAME pointing to dev.mydomain.com?
[02:56] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme I have nothing right now - except an http redirect. I don't know WHAT I should have to accomplish this - that's my question
[02:57] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  i got ya.  So, where does your mydomain.com point to?
[02:57] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme my host
[02:57] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme their nameservers I guess
[02:57] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen: ok, but what page does it bring up, or where is that webserver?
[02:58] <danbhfive> jarrettgreen: can I get the actual address, maybe I can help too
[02:58] <Chewy> it Was set to none
[02:58] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme  yeppers - blinkmg.com brings up our page on THEIR servers -which is what we want
[02:58] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen: what kind of hosting panel is it by the way?  or what DNS service do you use?
[02:58] <pipino> hi anyone here who uses WPA2?
[02:58] <pipino> wlan?
[02:58] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme I dunno I use 1and1.com for a host
[02:59] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  ok, let me check on 2 things, and i'll be right back
[02:59] <jarrettgreen> k
[02:59] <Elevator_Hazard> Who knows anything about how ubuntu running on external that I usually have plkugged into my desktop would work on my laptop? Its got different graphics card type like nVidia where this one has ATI, and other differences like that...
[02:59] <xeenan> I have a noob question for you guys. I have a creative X-Fi sound card and im have trouble getting sound. its recognized in the hardware menu but the volumn has an x thru it and i get the error box     ""No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.""  any help would be apreciated
[02:59] <d0s4gw> Is anyone aware of any tools for partitioning and formatting a newly added second hard disk?  In this case the drive is SATA.
[02:59] <Chewy> so what do i do>
[03:00] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  i just tried dev.blinkmg.com and it doesn't flip to an ip on me
[03:00] <Chewy> i checked the file and it is set to none
[03:00] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme oh yeah crap. we switched it back to their server
[03:00] <Chewy> so what do i do
[03:00] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme i'll change it back to the ip
[03:01] <killerbeesateme> jarrettgreen:  ok, let me know.  i'm checking out 1 on 1 right now
[03:02] <Kuwanger> Ashnal: I might have found something.

[03:03] <jarrettgreen> killerbeesateme - ok it's up. But again, all I did was hit "http redirect" on that subdomain - so obvioulsy it'll show the IP, just as if I put google.com in there - I know this is not the right way to go about this. I need to choose either DNS or CNAME, but I don't know which
