[00:00] <Jack_Sparrow> shinjin some of the different gdm themes will do that for you.. gnome-look.org
[00:00] <Laney> tanath: ARGH!
[00:00] <Dreamsorcerer> Gr34t3st: Have you tried pushing F4 on the menu (after language selection) and selecting 'safe graphics mode' and then selecting install, that's what I had to do.
[00:00] <tanath> Laney, lol, sorry
[00:00] <Laney> np
[00:00] <Lanlost> YixilTesiphon, that's.. crazy
[00:00] <shinjin> I'm using coverflow GDM and it's supposed to but none are showing up.
[00:00] <Gr34t3st> Dreamsorcerer: Yeah I tried that. Let me try again.
[00:00] <YixilTesiphon> Lanlost: that's what I thought
[00:01] <Jack_Sparrow> afallenhope if you did a windows system restore you dont have grub unless you reinstalled after that
[00:01] <tanath> Lanlost, only seems to be an issue for certain apps, but might explain why i can't run WoW :P
[00:01] <shinjin> Would a link to the theme I'm using help?
[00:01] <rogerramjet1> If i set a grace period what happens to the files once that time has passed? do they get deleted?
[00:01] <Gr34t3st> Dreamsorcerer: Did you have the same problem as me? The blank screen?
[00:02] <tvynr> I get the blank screen with the cursor as well.
[00:02] <tvynr> When trying to install under QEMU.
[00:02] <Lanlost> YixilTesiphon, are you sure it's not just a coincidence?  I just can't think of how they would even be connected in that way
[00:02] <Jack_Sparrow> shinjin I will take a quick look ..
[00:02] <YixilTesiphon> Lanlost: it has happened four times
[00:02] <shinjin> http://paullinux.creations.googlepages.com/home
[00:03] <Bizzeh> is there anything like visual studio for ubuntu?
[00:03] <ringer> is there a plugin that lets me see when people sign in?
[00:03] <Lanlost> DSL -> router = ok.  DSL-> router -> computer = DSL ! Router
[00:03] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  welll.. how would I reinstall it lol
[00:03] <Dillizar> Dreamsorcerer:  can you help me
[00:03] <Dillizar> or
[00:03] <tvynr> Bizzeh: What are you trying to develop?   Should I install a dual boot, or should I run virtual machines, and if I start using vm which one? xen, qemu, VMware, etc..?
[00:03] <Bizzeh> gui applications, C++, and i dont want something writen in java
[00:03] <Jack_Sparrow> afallenhope by reading the link we repeatedly have given you
[00:04] <IrishDavid> I trying to use the intel vtune software that required the user to be a member of the vtune group but i cant get myself properly added. I have run "sudo adduser david vtune" and yet when i execute it still complains that the user needed added to vtune group
[00:04] <Dreamsorcerer> Gr34t3st: I didn't have the blinking line, just a black screen the moment the splash screen had finished loading up Ubuntu
[00:04] <shinjin> How do I change the pictures that appear next to the names?
[00:04] <Jack_Sparrow> shinjin that looks good, glad you found the problem
[00:04] <dri> try virtualbox
[00:04] <shinjin> nvm found that one to
[00:04] <Gr34t3st> Dreamsorcerer: Were you overwriting windows ME?
[00:04] <shinjin> Thanks for the help everyone
[00:04] <mdmkolbe|work> When my (Ubuntu 8.04) computer awakes from sleep it says something about drm_sysfd restore failed.  What is drm_sysfs and what does it do?
[00:04] <Cr0w> hello, in download section only appears intel x86 and amd64 bits..intel x86 has support for both 32 and 64bits? or is only for 32bits?
[00:04] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[00:05] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  yes yes yes rtfm I get it but I don't understand... what't eh point of this channel if you guys simply point ppl to a manual? it's a HELP channel
[00:05] <Dreamsorcerer> Dillizar: What makes you think you're screen may be unsupported?
[00:05] <KindOne> 32 bit
[00:05] <SebNaitsabes> Crow  32 bit
[00:05] <Starnestommy> Cr0w: the x86 version is 32-bit but works on 32-bit and 64-bit machines
[00:05] <European-African> dri: virtualbox, is that the best choice?
[00:05] <SebNaitsabes> dri:  virtualbox is rather good yeah
[00:05] <DemonicButthead> Cr0w- EM64T enabled processors will work with 64 bit versions of ANY operating system
[00:05] <DemonicButthead> inetl processors anyway.. who even uses amd :P
[00:06] <ringer> in pidgin messenger, how do i download libnotify
[00:06] <Dillizar> Dreamsorcerer: cuz i cant change the resolution and if i chage to liek 640 i my hz are like 60 or smt
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> afallenhope we didnt say rtfm...  but you need to have a basic understanding of the problem in order for us to properly help you
[00:06] <eHome> i damaged my ubuntu7.04, after trying to upgrade directly to 8.04 -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades
[00:06] <Dillizar> or Dreamsorcerer the pic goes crazyyyyyyyyyyyy
[00:06] <Dreamsorcerer> Gr34t3st: Nope, installing it in a second partition, with 7.10 in already in the first partition
[00:06] <ryancr> Just did a fresh install of Hardy, resolution on monitor was perfect, install complete, rebooted, now I get Sync Out of Range
[00:06] <European-African> what VM will fully utilize the 64 processor and the nvidia graphics card?
[00:06] <ryancr> what is the best way to deal with that?
[00:06] <Condoulo> ok, just a question. I have this HP hub here, and I can't use it at all (Got it used), and I'm wanting to get in there using a Serial Cable and an ASCII Console to see if I can find any settings... how would I do that?
[00:06] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  I know... but it's how it feels. Try to undertsand that not everyone is a guru. I apprecitate the help I'm just,.. I don't know.. frustrated.
[00:06] <eHome> i m going to re-install 7.04, does that means that: i have to update everything, before upgrade to 7.10 ?
[00:06] <Starnestommy> ringer: look for libnotify in the package manager
[00:06] <tvynr> Bizzeh: Depends on how much code assistance and stuff you want.  I'm not sure why you care what language your IDE is written in.  Are you looking for something very invasive and full featured or something more simplistic and hands-off?
[00:06] <Cr0w> DemonicButthead, do u mean that i should downalod amd64 for intel micro? (i dont speak english very well)
[00:06] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  I know... but it's how it feels. Try to undertsand that not everyone is a guru. I apprecitate the help I'm just,.. I don't know.. frustrated.
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> eHome As you found out.. you cant go from 704 to 810
[00:06] <afallenhope> oops
[00:07] <afallenhope> sorry for the double post/
[00:07] <Jack_Sparrow> afallenhope did you read the link we gave you
[00:07] <ringer> Starnestommy: simple as that? sweet thanks!
[00:07] <IrishDavid> I trying to use the intel vtune software that required the user to be a member of the vtune group but i cant get myself properly added. I have run "sudo adduser david vtune" and yet when i execute it still complains that the user needed added to vtune group
[00:07] <afallenhope> the fix grub one?
[00:07] <afallenhope> !fixgrub
[00:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !grub

[00:07] <Bizzeh> tvynr: intelisence, makes things easier, right click on a #include and open... stuff like that... and i care about what its writen in, because i feel dirty having java installed, nevermind using it... its the most horrid thing in the world, has ruened so many good programmers

[00:08] <Jack_Sparrow> afallenhope specifically https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[00:08] <Dreamsorcerer> Dillizar: ermm, sounds like you may have a similar problem to me, will require some xorg.conf changing, have you got MSN messenger or something?
[00:08] <rinovan> how to convert tgz to deb in gnome
[00:08] <tvynr> Cr0w: The "amd64" architecture is used by AMD and Intel alike.  Intel just calls it EM64T 'cause they don't want to put anything with "AMD" in it on their stuff.  It's generically called x86_64, but the name amd64 caught on.
[00:08] <Jack_Sparrow> eHome that will do it
[00:08] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  I didn't install Windows though.. Windows was installed before anything
[00:08] <mdmkolbe|work> When my (Ubuntu 8.04) computer awakes from sleep it says something about drm_sysfd restore failed.  What is drm_sysfs and what does it do?
[00:08] <Bizzeh> i would like to use kdevelop, but i CBA with half of kde being installed just to use it
[00:08] <Dillizar> yes
[00:08] <Dillizar> yes Dreamsorcerer
[00:08] <Cr0w> tvynr, ok, thanks :)
[00:08] <Jack_Sparrow> afallenhope you said you did a windows system restore, or did I miss something
[00:09] <Soopa> hey gang
[00:09] <Dillizar> yes Dreamsorcerer that was the problem :P
[00:09] <eHome> Jack_Sparrow: i mean: in order to save time: can i do this: re-install 7.04, then upgrade to 7.10 directly ?
[00:09] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  yeah... and it didn't work...
[00:09] <Dillizar> Dreamsorcerer<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[00:09] <Jack_Sparrow> eHome yes
[00:09] <afallenhope> or does that screw stuff up?
[00:09] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:
[00:09] <Jack_Sparrow> afallenhope it DID wipe out grub..
[00:09] <afallenhope> dang it.
[00:09] <eHome> Jack_Sparrow: ok thank. i m trying now.
[00:10] <Jack_Sparrow> afallenhope it is the same as reinstalling windows
[00:10] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  it's still on my linux partition thouhg:-s
[00:10] <afallenhope> I can see my partitions on the live CD
[00:10] <Soopa> hey everyone, is there a tutorial about init.d that you all could point me to?  i want to take an app and run it as a daemon
[00:10] <eHome> Jack_Sparrow: i discovered that ubuntu is not secure: i have XP+ubuntu, yesterday i install ubuntu on a USB, when i login usb-ubuntu, i can see anything in my pc-ubuntu ?
[00:10] <DemonicButthead> I'm working off a fresh install of HH 8.04 and all audio drivers and utilities were installed and worked out of the box.  I did have to un-mute my PCM in alsamixer in terminal, but I am still left with one problem.  When I adjust my master volume either by using the buttons on my keyboard or using the Volume Control: HDA Intel (Alsa mixer), the "Master" volume doesn't adjust the loudness of my PCM/SPDIF output?  Anyone know why?
[00:11] <eHome> Jack_Sparrow: is that a big ubuntu security hole ?
[00:11] <tvynr> Bizzeh: Being a Java developer by day and a Python programmer by night, I'm afraid I'd have to disagree with you.  But you're allowed your preferences.  :)  How about http://www.codeblocks.org/ ?  I've never used it, but a cursory Google and a look at the screenshots seems nice.
[00:11] <sarthor> my creative vista webcam is working fine with cheese and xtv.. but now going online on gyachi?? Help
[00:11] <micahcowan> Soopa, they're just shell scripts. Maybe have a look at /etc/init.d/skeleton?
[00:11] <IrishDavid> nope, it's still not working and when i go to a terminal as david and type groups, vtune doesnt show up
[00:11] <sarthor> my creative vista webcam is working fine with cheese and xtv.. but not going online on gyachi?? Help
[00:11] <SeaPhor> afallenhope, make sure you put the name of who you are speaking to with every line
[00:11] <xur1z> could someone give me advice on configuring grub for md raid?
[00:11] <m0u5e> @#$%^& blah gstreamer i hate you T__T;
[00:11] <IrishDavid> but when i type sudo adduser david vtune it says user already added
[00:11] <micahcowan> Soopa, you can copy that, and then fill in the details.
[00:11] <LinuxNIT> can anyone point me in the right direction for enableing s-video output on a ati radeon 9600 in hardy?
[00:12] <xur1z> i have a machine with /boot = sda2, / = md0, but i can't get past GRUB on boot
[00:12] <m0u5e> LinuxNIT: i hear fedora works with that sort of thing...
[00:12] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  /media/disk-1 (linux) and /media/disk (Windows)
[00:12] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, doesn't user david already exist?
[00:12] <LinuxNIT> m0u5e, are you saying ubuntu cant do it?
[00:12] <m0u5e> LinuxNIT: no, but if you figure out how, i would like to know too :X
[00:13] <sarthor> its my 3rd day that i am calling for the same help, but the Nature is against me these days i think :)
[00:13] <LinuxNIT> well fedora wont install on my laptop so im out there
[00:13] <m0u5e> LinuxNIT: i don't know why, but to me it seems like there has been a regression with video output to external displays...
[00:13] <Jack_Sparrow> eHome doesnt sound like a security hole. did you use the same user name and password on both?
[00:13] <SeaPhor> afallenhope, can you see /media/disk-1/boot/grub ?
[00:13] <IrishDavid> micahcowan, he does but i am attempting to get him as a user in group vtune as the vtune program requires this for launch but it keeps complaining
[00:13] <afallenhope> SeaPhor:  yes I cam
[00:13] <m0u5e> LinuxNIT: have you tried playing around with the screen resolution utility under system>preferences?
[00:13] <afallenhope> can*
[00:13] <eHome> Jack_Sparrow: no. it's different user name
[00:14] <LinuxNIT> yes i have m0u5e
[00:14] <eHome> Jack_Sparrow: i would say it is a security hole. as i login from usb, and can edit anything on pc-ubuntu
[00:14] <m0u5e> LinuxNIT: did it even detect the display?
[00:14] <LinuxNIT> 2nd display is disabled and i cant enable it
[00:14] <sarthor> my creative vista webcam is working fine with cheese and xtv.. but not going online on gyachi?? Help
[00:14] <sarthor> its my 3rd day that i am calling for the same help, but the Nature is against me these days i think :)
[00:14] <SeaPhor> afallenhope, thats probably the part that needs to be known, and you missed his name in that last post
[00:15] <LinuxNIT> unless i make it my default screen
[00:15] <IrishDavid> eHome, I know what you mean as I am doing the same thing here in terms of logging in from usb
[00:15] <Whtiger> Is my gpg key vulerable to the debian/ubuntu openssl thing?
[00:15] <eHome> Jack_Sparrow: so ubuntu is heckable -- IrishDavid
[00:15] <IrishDavid> eHome, it's effectively the same as taking the hard drive and plugging it into another system
[00:15] <eHome> Jack_Sparrow: and much easier to be hecked than XP
[00:15] <afallenhope> SeaPhor: okay... so I'm confused as to what I do lol.
[00:15] <Jack_Sparrow> eHome sorry, but I really really need to go...  physical access is not the same as hackable...
[00:16] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, AIUI adduser is for creating wholly new users.
[00:16] <IrishDavid> eHome, it requires physical access to the system
[00:16] <eHome> IrishDavid: ok - :)
[00:16] <IrishDavid> micahcowan, it is also for adding users to a group...
[00:16] <afallenhope> I'm sorry to everyone though. I know you're all like :what a noob:
[00:16] <IrishDavid> micahcowan, check the output from adduser --help because i checked to make sure i was right
[00:17] <eHome> IrishDavid: now i got a question. when i installed ubuntu in usb. everytime i have to plug the usb to boot pc, if not , i got an error" grub error 21 "
[00:17] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, is it? I've never done it that way... but then I usually use vigr. ...usermod should also be usable for that.
[00:17] <AzMoo> Does gksudo use the same sudoers file as normal sudo?
[00:17] <eHome> IrishDavid: but sometime i'd like to use my pc-ubuntu
[00:17] <m0u5e> blah banshee can't play my mp3s... yet movie player can play them :/
[00:17] <SeaPhor> afallenhope, tell him you can see /media/disk-1/boot/grub from the live cd, and ask if that makes any difference, i'm logging for a while else i'd try
[00:17] <m0u5e> AzMoo: i believe so
[00:17] <IrishDavid> eHome, i got the same problem on one of my laptops when i tried to use it, but every other system i boot on has worked (system that supports usb booting)
[00:18] <afallenhope> SeaPhor: okay thanks
[00:18] <AzMoo> m0u5e: That's what I thought too.
[00:18] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, what's the output of "grep ^david /etc/group" ?
[00:18] <sarthor> my creative vista webcam is working fine with cheese and xtv.. but not going online on gyachi?? Help
[00:18] <IrishDavid> micahcowan, it does work, but then again it doesnt seem to be working for me right now..... still trying
[00:18] <sarthor> its my 3rd day that i am calling for the same help, but the Nature is against me these days i think :)
[00:18] <SeaPhor> afallenhope, no, i'll be back in a hour or so
[00:18] <Soopa> micahcowan: oh, cool.. thanks!
[00:18] <IrishDavid> david:x:1000:
[00:18] <m0u5e> does anyone elses banshee simply not play mp3s?
[00:18] <AzMoo> Any idea why my sudoers configuration works in a terminal but not from a shortcut?
[00:18] <IrishDavid> david:x:1000: micahcowan
[00:19] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, sorry, I should have given you grep ^vtune, instead.
[00:19] <jim-Dandy> hello, any recommended apps to dump sprites and tilemaps from nes roms?
[00:19] <m0u5e> AzMoo: it should? try alt+f2 and type gksu <app name>
[00:19] <eHome> i got a 7.04CD, no 8.04CD, is there a better way to install 8.04, instead of install 7.04->upgrade to 7.10->8.04 ?
[00:19] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  hey! I can see the /media/disk-1/boot/grub from the live CD which is located at /dev/sda5
[00:19] <m0u5e> if that works, your shortcuts should work too
[00:19] <m0u5e> eHome: yes just install 8.04 Hardy Heron
[00:19] <IrishDavid> vtune:x:100:
[00:19] <m0u5e> eHome: go to www.ubuntu.com and download the latest cd or ask them to ship it to you
[00:19] <tanath> anyone care to nominate a best linux chat client?
[00:20] <eHome> m0u5e: howto? i do not have the CD -- good on you :)
[00:20] <m0u5e> tanath: if you're using gnome i strongly recommend xchat-gnome
[00:20] <afallenhope> tanath: I personally like X-Chat
[00:20] <Piglet64> hello
[00:20] <m0u5e> eHome: you can either download it, or ask them to ship it to you
[00:20] <tanath> m0u5e: i like xchat, but that's just for irc
[00:20] <Broadcom> !hi | Piglet64
[00:20] <dkt> tanath: xchat-gnome best bet probably if you are using ubuntu
[00:20] <jbalint> hi
[00:20] <m0u5e> tanath: oh like pidgin?
[00:20] <eHome> m0u5e: seems have to install from a liveCD
[00:20] <tanath> m0u5e: yes
[00:20] <m0u5e> tanath: i've never really tried kopete but i've heard good things about it
[00:20] <tanath> dkt: what about for more than irc?
[00:20] <afallenhope> tanath:  if you're using gnome pidgin if your using KDE kopete
[00:21] <m0u5e> tanath: theres also a new client called empathy which i hear will replace pidgin in gnome 2.24
[00:21] <Broadcom> !hi  | jbalint
[00:21] <dkt> tanath: pidgin?
[00:21] <Piglet64> I have an old computer
[00:21] <jbalint> how can i get the el source for emacs? seems it was included in 21.4, but not longer in 22.1
[00:21] <tanath> i'm using pidgin, but i was hoping for something better
[00:21] <angus393> /msg ubottu etiquette
[00:21] <IrishDavid> hey micahcowan I managed to get it working :)
[00:21] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, yeah? How?
[00:21] <tanath> maybe something that can support audio calls on gtalk, for instance
[00:21] <Piglet64> not that old dell 4600c/p4 2.6G/738M DDR/60G/nvidia 7300
[00:21] <IrishDavid> i reinstalled with me already added to the group :)
[00:21] <m0u5e> is there a way to reinstall an entire app dep tree?
[00:21] <Lanlost> Weird.. I went to a terminal and typed compiz and it loaded compiz over top of the desktop effects that were already loaded. So I ctrl-c it and now I don't have window borders.
[00:21] <IrishDavid> i think it was just me being silly micahcowan
[00:21] <dkt> tanath: well i like pidgin ;-) works for me and what i need hehe... what are you missing from pidgin that you are looking for?
[00:22] <Piglet64> I am thinking to put an ubuntu linux into it
[00:22] <afallenhope> tanath:  then I would suggest aMSN for MSN and Pidgin
[00:22] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, I was about to suggest Administration -> Users and Groups
[00:22] <m0u5e> for example, if i'm not sure if one of my packages is corrupt, i want to reinstall all apps which banshee deps on
[00:22] <ubunt2ok> anyone know anything about ubuntu-xbox?
[00:22] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, Or maybe sudo vigr (that's how I always edit groups)
[00:22] <IrishDavid> micahcowan, I had been in there and done that, it may have just been me doing some silly
[00:22] <m0u5e> can i be like... sudo aptitude reinstall banshee --FIXEVERYTHING********? xD
[00:22] <tanath> dkt: pidgin doesn't support audio calls or file transfers on google talk, or status changing/updating on msn
[00:22] <tanath> dkt: nor any video calling
[00:22] <IrishDavid> micahcowan, ill remember that, thanks :)
[00:22] <Piglet64> Should I put the latest version or should I put some older version into it
[00:23] <tanath> afallenhope: amsn is good for msn, but i'd like to use a multiprotocol client so as not to have to run multiple clients
[00:23] <micahcowan> IrishDavid, vigr uses vi for editing by default, I think, though, so may not be what you want (unless you first mess with the VISUAL env var).
[00:23] <Piglet64> Does the new version have too much for the hardware
[00:23] <afallenhope> Anyone know how to recover my GRUB if it's located at "/media/disk-1/boot/grub"
[00:23] <afallenhope> I'm on a linux LIVE Cd.
[00:24] <Condoulo> ok, just a question. I have this HP hub here, and I can't use it at all (Got it used), and I'm wanting to get in there using a Serial Cable and an ASCII Console to see if I can find any settings... how would I do that?
[00:24] <jim-Dandy> ubunt2ok: afaik ubuntu on xbox hasn't seen much love, it may be easier to go with gentoo, which still has an active profile for xbox.
[00:24] <m0u5e> tanath: i don't like amsn... in my experience its clunky, and crashes frequently
[00:24] <m0u5e> afallenhope: i don't know about recovering it... wwhy not just try reinstall grub?
[00:24] <Bizzeh> i wouldnt use gentoo on xbox for moral reasons
[00:24] <m0u5e> Bizzeh: moral reasons? :3
[00:25] <Piglet64> I will need this computer mostly for the web browse/multimedia/a light file server for the home network
[00:25] <Bizzeh> since shallax did all the work, then gentoo took credit for it and kicked him off the team and took his work
[00:25] <m0u5e> Bizzeh: ah i c
[00:25] <afallenhope> m0u5e:  I'd reinstall it but there's more than one Partition... there's my XP recovery partition and my Media Center, as well as my Windows partision
[00:25] <tanath> m0u5e: i used to have issues with amsn, but it seems good now. it's a bit iffy with sound though, but that's it
[00:25] <Fritzel> IS it possible to set GPU fan speed in ubuntu?
[00:26] <Bizzeh> its another one of those things that claim to be "a movment of freedom" when its more of an act of comunism, "do what we say or your gone"
[00:26] <m0u5e> tanath: i dun like it >__<; (but then again's pidgins constant "error: msg could not be send errors" are annoying too)
[00:26] <jim-Dandy> Fritzel: anything is possible
[00:26] <hisingh1> How do i undo a installation with synaptic]
[00:26] <tanath> m0u5e: i don't seem to get that in pidgin...
[00:26] <Lanlost> afallenhope, you should try LinuxMint, it has a Live CD. It's an ubuntu derivative and the best I've used.
[00:26] <Fritzel> Anyone, jim-Dandy, better question, how can it be done?
[00:26] <tanath> m0u5e: which protocol?
[00:26] <m0u5e> Bizzeh: there needs to be a balance (like all good things) between individuality and communistic ideologies
[00:26] <hisingh1> when i forgot the stuff i installed
[00:26] <dkt> tanath: sorry cant help you, i don't have any use for the features
[00:27] <tanath> m0u5e: personally, i think xchat is the best for irc, amsn is the best for msn, and pidgin seems the best all-around
[00:27] <afallenhope> Lanlost:  what do you mean derivative?
[00:27] <elephant> t
[00:27] <m0u5e> does anyone have any words of insight on best music players / organizers for gnome?
[00:27] <tanath> m0u5e: amarok
[00:27] <SebNaitsabes> Rythombox is pretty good
[00:27] <eHome> ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso vs ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso --> what's the difference?
[00:27] <m0u5e> tanath: for gnome :X
[00:27] <tanath> m0u5e: amarok for the win. it pwns all
[00:27] <dkt> m0u5e: xmms2! lol
[00:27] <m0u5e> tanath: i don't like amarok... its too feature bloated -__-;
[00:27] <Bizzeh> m0u5e: what im trying to get at is, gentoo claim to be about freedom, yet they took his name out of all the source he wrote.... they wouldnt dare do that with any gnu supplied code
[00:27] <m0u5e> dkt: i use audacious
[00:27] <tanath> m0u5e: who cares. i use gnome, but i still use amarok
[00:27] <tanath> m0u5e: fine. audacious :P
[00:28] <tanath> m0u5e: i like listen for gnome
[00:28] <hisingh1> Help! i accidently installed crap and i need to undo the install, but i dont remember what i installed, is there a way to recover??
[00:28] <DIL> libcaca
[00:28] <eHome> is ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso used to install directly from c:\
[00:29] <m0u5e> tanath: blaghalgagha why won't it play T__T
[00:29] <Fritzel> IS it possible to set GPU fan speed in ubuntu? And how can it be done
[00:29] <tanath> m0u5e: ?
[00:29] <m0u5e> tanath: i'm trying to get rhythm box working but it refuses to want to play
[00:29] <jim-Dandy> hisingh1: usually if crap is involved, some tp and maybe a little water will clean it up
[00:29] <Fritzel> eHome, most likely you'll want to use the regular desktop iso
[00:29] <m0u5e> tanath: omg it works LOL
[00:29] <Fritzel> eHome, I think
[00:29] <Arrick> ok, new problem.. when I close the lid on my laptop and then open it, the video is gone to crap, IBM Thinkpad T60p, and I cant bring back the normal video, any ideas would be appreciated
[00:29] <m0u5e> tanath: for some reason it didnt want to play with audacious...
[00:29] <jansen> gd morning
[00:29] <eHome> Fritzel: well i m thinking of installing from non-CD
[00:30] <Fritzel> eHome, if via wubi I have no idea I 've never used it
[00:30] <tanath> m0u5e: have the plugins? configured properly?
[00:30] <hisingh1> jim-Daddy funny, but can i undo a install
[00:30] <Bizzeh> i would like to name and shame someone
[00:30] <mdmkolbe|work> asdfasdf
[00:30] <tanath> m0u5e: oh, i see it works now. good stuff
[00:30] <Fritzel> IS it possible to set GPU fan speed in ubuntu? And how can it be done?
[00:30] <mdmkolbe|work> asf
[00:30] <m0u5e> tanath: dunno what happened but it works now...
[00:30] <eHome> Fritzel: is it a waste that ubuntu has to be installed from a liveCD ?
[00:30] <Bizzeh> http://www.navicat.com <<< download their "linux version"... its the windows version pre set up with wine....
[00:30] <m0u5e> tanath: i like how banshee looks (and its simplicity) but rhythmbox seems to have improved since i last saw it
[00:31] <tanath> m0u5e: hardy's sound seems messed up
[00:31] <m0u5e> tanath: while banshee seems to still be extremely alpha :/
[00:31] <Piglet64> anyone has some suggestion?
[00:31] <m0u5e> tanath: yeah... it is ... (they should just adopt phonon and be overy with it xD)
[00:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Bizzeh please not in here..
[00:31] <tanath> m0u5e: rhythmbox improved? cool. i thought it was decent before, but amarok still owns it
[00:31] <Fritzel> eHome, certainly not in fact I much prefer it that way, it gives you time to play your favorite flash game while you're installing the os ^^
[00:31] <tanath> m0u5e: phonon?
[00:31] <SebNaitsabes> mOuse:  if you run Wine you can have winamp if you really want
[00:31] <Fritzel> eHome, only bad part is the install doesn't take long enough and I usually have to quit my game :(
[00:32] <m0u5e> mmm... i wish there was instant search & highlight (like firefox) in xchat-gnome... so i could find and highlight previous comments by certain users
[00:32] <quad3d-dbi> is there a way stop installation to eject the CD after install?
[00:32] <SebNaitsabes> mOuse: or Foobar 2000 even if you run it in WIne
[00:32] <m0u5e> Piglet64: if its any indiciation i'm on a 512mb RAM inspiron 1150
[00:32] <m0u5e> SebNaitsabes: i try to stick to native apps
[00:32] <Fritzel> IS it possible to set GPU fan speed in ubuntu? And how can it be done?
[00:32] <m0u5e> SebNaitsabes: yeah, otherwise i'd use uTorrent for everything
[00:33] <m0u5e> anyways, gtg cya'll :0
[00:33] <eHome> Fritzel: LOL
[00:33] <jansen> hello everybody.. can anyone answer meif we need to remove an USB device?? (stop the USB device like in windows) or you can just remove it withouth saying the SO you will rmeove?
[00:33] <tanath> m0u5e: what are you using? you not using xchat?
[00:33] <m0u5e> jansen: you should unmount it before you remove it (right click on device and say unmount)
[00:33] <m0u5e> tanath: i'm using xchat-gnome
[00:33] <jansen> oh
[00:33] <jansen> ty
[00:33] <m0u5e> okay cya'll :D
[00:33] <Fritzel> jansen, well if it's a disk you'll generally want to unmount it but other than that you're typically ok I believe
[00:33] <SebNaitsabes> m0u5e:  same here, but let's be honest,  certain native apps suck really.  as in the music players and MSN clients
[00:34] <Xsploit> talking about msn clients, amsn doesnt highlight when i get a new message
[00:34] <Xsploit> fs
[00:34] <tanath> anyone know how to prevent irc windows in pidgin from stealing focus?
[00:34] <angus393> Is there a more "high-powered" or "advanced" session manager for gnome?..In particular I want all my command terminals and windows (like eclipse) to open automatically when I login. The "save session automatically" only seems to restore things like firefox. Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
[00:34] <Fritzel> m0use SebNaitsabes, and the fan overclocking utilities for the gpu
[00:34] <Piglet64> m0u5e:   And you are in the latest ubuntu? What is your cpu?
[00:34] <tanath> other chats don't, but irc does
[00:34] <matt_> I am looking for a distro that is great. I've tried (K)ubuntu before, right now I'm using Fedora 9. I love Kubuntu, but it seems to be a little "slow" in some areas. Perhaps this is just because of KDE, I'm not sure.    That'll fix everything! (Noone EVER run this command, please!)
[00:35] <eric_noob> quick question, I tried googling, but I think i must be phrasing this wrong: I just installed emerald on 8.04 and now some of the menus in my apps are way to tiny, and I didn't see an option to adjust menu fonts in emerald, any idea, or is there a directive to add to the config file?
[00:35] <`Kermudge> Simple question.  Is there a script or something that I can add to Xchat that allows for auto ops?
[00:36] <Nyad> if someone here has the ISO of the alternate install CD of ubuntu with them could they tell me what the names of the files are called in the isolinux dir in the ISO
[00:36] <Fritzel> SebNaitsabes, more the other way around, but yes you're on the right track, the gpu is the hardware that processes the instructions opengl gives it, (that's a users rendition of what actually happens and 90% guesswork)
[00:36] <tanath> matt_, heh, that wouldn't work anyway :P
[00:36] <SebNaitsabes> Fritzel: well I got an opengl problem
[00:36] <junot> woiiiii anjing
[00:36] <noah> does dpkg-reconfigure log the commands it runs somewhere?
[00:36] <matt_> tanath: oh, wouldn't it? Oh well
[00:37] <anabolix> anyone know how to fix login screen size?
[00:37] <xciiio> Is there a link that shows me how I should set up my HDD partitions so I can dual boot XP - Ubuntu?
[00:37] <Fritzel> SebNaitsabes, what type of graphics card and does "glxinfo |grep direct" give you "Yes"
[00:37] <tanath> eric_noob: emerald-theme-manager
[00:37] <SebNaitsabes> Fritzel:  the graphics card not sure, some Nividia one though I guess
[00:37] <tanath> matt_, there'd be dependency conflicts
[00:37] <eric_noob> I don't see the option in the theme manager for menu size
[00:37] <eric_noob> only titlebar size
[00:37] <Fritzel> SebNaitsabes, know thine hardware
[00:37] <junot> woiii ngewe

[00:43] <SilverMx> tanath: i can to know work my card or no with LiveCD? what i must write?
[00:43] <jramsey> legend2440, i found it in the properties for synaptic; txs
[00:43] <Fritzel> SebNaitsabes, ok first thing you need to do is find out what brand of video card you have Nvidia or ATI (and that's not something I know how to check) next thing you should do is install envyng and install the correct video card driver after that you should be able to progress past where you are now
[00:43] <dimas869> tanath the .deb package give me an error message still...saids the codec is already installed is there anyways to copy the file to a different directory?
[00:43] <tanath> SilverMx: if you use a live disc, you can try ubuntu without installing it. if it works, it works :p
[00:43] <cwraig> hi all, i am having a strange problem, when i play video (VLC, Mplayer, Movie Player) the colours all wrong but youtube is fine any ideas?
[00:43] <SebNaitsabes> Fritzel:  well I guess it 's Nividia since I installed the propritary driver
[00:43] <tanath> eric_noob: emerald-theme-manager
[00:44] <SilverMx> tanath: i try to use livecd, but how i can know work 3d or no?
[00:44] <tanath> SilverMx: 'glxinfo | grep -i direct'
[00:44] <Jack_Sparrow> SilverMx If you are that concerned, google up info on your hardware and ubuntu

[00:45] <hisingh1> ibasically installed a restricted i basically installed some restricted drivers that i didnt need and that caused my computer to , well cause applications to  not work
[00:45] <SilverMx> Jack_Sparrow: but i cant find something about 9500gs AND ubuntu :(
[00:45] <Fritzel> SebNaitsabes, well then I suppose you can try to install envyng and the video driver through that

[00:54] <tanath> infamous: what changed before it started?
[00:54] <tanath> _charlieX: depends on the package
[00:54] <_charlieX> realplayer

[00:55] <Housefly7k> is there an option within the default settings for dual monitor support? or do I have to install something
[00:55] <dimas869> tanath i did upgrade to hardy not too long ago do i have to add repos again?
[00:55] <tanath> _charlieX: you can use 'dpkg -L packagename' to see what it installs & where
[00:55] <jramsey> can i change the behavior of Alt-Tab in keyboard shortcuts so that i switch between two windows; one being the last one active?
[00:55] <_charlieX> tanath: k

[00:55] <tanath> dimas869: make sure your repos are right
[00:55] <Jav13r> how can i open a program from the start menu as a root?
[00:55] <infamous> tarant evrything
[00:55] <tanath> dimas869: 3rd party repos get disabled on upgrading
[00:55] <Housefly7k> jramsey: doesnt it already do that?
[00:55] <dimas869> tanath where do i check the i forgot...synaptic?
[00:56] <_charlieX> tanath: is there another app that can handle *.rm files?
[00:56] <jramsey> Housefly7k, it rotates between all active windows, not between the most current 2 which is what i want
[00:56] <tanath> _charlieX: mplayer
[00:56] <_charlieX> ./claps for tanath
[00:56] <marreco> _charlieX: u can use a realplayer ou mplayer
[00:56] <marreco> anyone knows how to add a rmvb codec to vlc ?
[00:56] <jramsey> Jav13r, open a terminal and run it from there prefixed with sudo
[00:56] <_charlieX> tanath: any special plugins?
[00:56] <cgentry72> how do i convert an ogg to wav but with the wav getting compressed
[00:56] <tanath> _charlieX: if you have the codecs it'll play anything
[00:57] <_charlieX> tanath: righto
[00:57] <_charlieX> ty all
[00:57] <tanath> _charlieX: you can use w32codecs package from the medibuntu repo
[00:57] <_charlieX> url for repo?
[00:57] <jim-Dandy> cgentry72: wav files aren't compressed
[00:57] <bloodrock> Jav13r, what you could do is put that program on the desktop then edit the command adding gksudo before the command for program
[00:57] <tanath> _charlieX: google medibuntu
[00:57] <_charlieX> tanath: kk
[00:57] <Jav13r> jramsey:  when i do this with thunderbir. there are 2 different thunderbirds
[00:57] <Housefly7k> jramsey: i dont know, but why not just press it once....that will get the last active window up
[00:58] <jim-Dandy> cgentry72: do you mean reduce the sample rate?
[00:58] <jramsey> Housefly7k, all i want is to flip between two windows quickly;
[00:58] <jramsey> Jav13r, why do u want to run Tbird in root?
[00:58] <cgentry72> jim-Dandy: yes, i have some ogg files that I want to use for system sounds but when I convert them they are over 2.5MB and they won't play for system sounds
[00:58] <afallenhope> Jack_Sparrow:  I got it to work.. the tutorial on the Ubuntu site sucks lol. but the one on the GRUB site worked. Thanks anyways
[00:58] <Nith> jramsey: did you change your default alt-tab behavior?
[00:58] <Nith> *behaviour
[00:58] <marreco> anyone knows how to add a rmvb codec to vlc ?
[00:59] <tanath> dimas869: the error says the w32codecs package is conflicting with gyachi-codecs. that means you can't have both installed at the same time
[00:59] <jramsey> Nith, trying ... but "Move between windows with popup" is all i see
[00:59] <Jav13r> jramsey:  when i try to open it as user. is asking me to create a profile. and i cant wite the profile it seems. probably because im no root
[00:59] <infamous> tanath wat can i do to fix it
[00:59] <jim-Dandy> cgentry72: i believe audacity will convert between various formats and sample rates
[01:00] <tanath> infamous: need more info. when did it start? what did you do before that?
[01:00] <jim-Dandy> cgentry72: i'm not sure what is required for system sounds tho
[01:00] <cgentry72> jim-Dandy: ok i tried soundconverter and it doesn't give you the option of sampling rate so the wav is to big
[01:00] <dimas869> tanath so what do you suggest?...is that mean?...
[01:00] <jramsey> Jav13r, as a user? i don't see why you can't write a profile for your own username; there is no way you need to run Tbird in root
[01:00] <tanath> dimas869: well, do you really need gyachi-codecs package installed?
[01:00] <Nith> jramsey: I'm currently set to that and if I <alt+tab><release> then I will only switch between two windows
[01:01] <infamous> tanath i didnt do nothing maby my sister iz its wos ok 2day
[01:01] <cgentry72> jim-Dandy: i'll give audacity a shot then
[01:01] <Nith> that is if you repeatedly alt+tab then release
[01:01] <Jav13r> jramsey: hold on a sec. ill print a screen so you can see better what the problem is
[01:01] <avatarone> hey all
[01:01] <avatarone> can i ask a question
[01:01] <jramsey> Nith, yep ... i fixed the mapping and it works ... txs
[01:01] <dimas869> tanath i want to be able to have a voice conference and i dont know how it work on kopete and netmeeting wich i have to integrate ekiga...do you know anything about it?
[01:01] <jramsey> Jav13r, don't print it here; use pastebin
[01:02] <afallenhope> anyone know the difference between the XChat-gnome and Xchat?
[01:02] <jramsey> !pastebin | Jav13r
[01:02] <afallenhope> other than the name LMAO
[01:02] <tanath> dimas869: do you need to use a particular protocol?
[01:02] <tanath> dimas869: you could use something like teamspeak
[01:02] <jramsey> Jav13r, then paste the pastebin url here so i can get to it
[01:02] <avatarone> how do I boot Ubuntu with GUI from BusyBox?
[01:03] <tanath> dimas869: i haven't used those ones myself
[01:03] <Jav13r> jramsey: here, http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/8551/screenshotdp8.png
[01:03] <gpm> hi all, which package provides /usr/sbin/sendmail in the default ubuntu install?
[01:03] <ryancr> just did a fresh install of hardy, but I get no network, its a via rhine 2 chip, any ideas?
[01:03] <bloodrock> afallenhope,  i think the gnome one has less options
[01:03] <hydester> hi.  i am using trying to configure hplip via hp-setup.  i have an hp photosmart 6280 via tcp/ip.  discovery fails, but i know the IP of the printer.  what do i do?
[01:03] <dimas869> tanath i have a yahoo network and need to get to yahoo conference room...so i have kopete and has netmeeting as a plugin but i have to do something with ekiga but i dont know axactly what....
[01:03] <tanath> gpm: synaptic can tell you that
[01:04] <afallenhope> bloodrock: you're right
[01:04] <Housefly7k> Dual monitor on a laptop anyone??
[01:04] <gpm> tanath: ah, but i don't have an ubuntu box handy
[01:04] <jramsey> Jav13r, which version of Tbird?
[01:04] <protocol1> is there a command to remove kubuntu-desktop from console
[01:04] <avatarone> here's what I did, I have win XP and I've made a new partition with partition magic, then I
[01:04] <tanath> gpm: well, i imagine it would be 'sendmail' ;p
[01:04] <jim-Dandy> hydester: does the network card appear to be functioning otherwise? (can you ping the router, use internet, and so on)
[01:04] <protocol1> wipe it all off?
[01:05] <ras> my autoconnect isn't working correctly :\
[01:05] <gpm> tanath: i'd be surprised actually, sendmail is big and bulky and not necessary for desktop systems
[01:05] <hydester> jim-Dandy, yes.  windows vista laptop connected fine.
[01:05] <ras> instead it autoconnects to the ubuntu server every time
[01:05] <tanath> dimas869: there is an official yahoo linux client...
[01:05] <bazhang> !puregnome | protocol1
[01:05] <Jav13r> jramsey:  its the very last one *14
[01:05] <tanath> gpm: sendmail-bin
[01:05] <jim-Dandy> hydester: I mean the pc from which you are attempting to print.. you can connect to the network ok?
[01:06] <hydester> jim-Dandy, yes, it is this one i'm on irc with
[01:06] <dimas869> tanath yeap but nether voice or webcam work
[01:06] <avatarone> here's what I did, I have win XP and I've made a new partition with partition magic, then I've tried to install ubuntu on it, selected manual from the ubuntu's partitioner, choosed location as / and installed it on that one... unfortunatley i get BusyBox now when I boot it... is there a way to get into Ubuntu with GUI from there?
[01:06] <tanath> dimas869: maybe not configured right?
[01:06] <jramsey> Jav13r, shrug ... i've <IP_ADDRESS> (older version) and it was a breeze to set up
[01:06] <dimas869> tanath do you have the link of it?
[01:06] <tanath> dimas869: i can google it...
[01:07] <jim-Dandy> hydester: if its not the network I can't help, sorry
[01:07] <dimas869> tanath dont worry i will ..thank you very much ok?
[01:07] <tanath> dimas869: ok, sorry i couldn't be more help
[01:07] <tanath> dimas869: did find a java version already though. that may work: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jymsg9/
[01:07] <dimas869> tanath i really appreciate your help which it was a lot
[01:07] <Jav13r> Jav13r:  <IP_ADDRESS> here
[01:08] <Jav13r> jramsey:  <IP_ADDRESS> here
[01:08] <redpill> hi everyone, i've been maked a router with my ubuntu, but, i dunno why, the "microsoft's services" just don't work... can u help me?
[01:09] <bloodrock> Jav13r, did you install tbird as root?
[01:09] <Jav13r> bloodrock: yes as root via apt-get
[01:09] <wers> from what repo do I get cinelerra?
[01:09] <jramsey> Jav13r, awwww man don't do that; use Synaptic
[01:09] <twisted_steel> does anyone know where totem stores its temp files?
[01:09] <bloodrock> maybe that is why it wants root it was installed as root?
[01:09] <SebNaitsabes> twisted_stell:  try the /tmp folde
[01:09] <tanath> twisted_steel: in /tmp i believe
[01:09] <Flare183> twisted_steel: /tmp
[01:10] <Flare183> yeap
[01:10] <tanath> hah
[01:10] <SebNaitsabes> twisted_stell:  try the /tmp folder
[01:10] <tanath> lol
[01:10] <Jav13r> hmm
[01:10] <twisted_steel> I looked there, maybe it's just the movie then?
[01:10] <jramsey> Jav13r, use Synaptic as your user (not root or sudo), remove Tbird then reinstall it
[01:10]  * SebNaitsabes twice with the name  done wrong oh well
[01:10] <dimas869> tanath thats 64 bit
[01:10] <tanath> twisted_steel: might be named something funky
[01:10] <Jav13r> jramsey: ok im gonna try that
[01:10] <afallenhope> what a good music player?
[01:10] <eross>  in a bash script file I have this..  SVN CO https:// ....   then I have  cd irrlicht/source/Irrlicht  on the next line.   The svn works but the change directory doesn't, I'm still in the \opt directory, why didn't I change the dir after teh SVN checkout?  I used VIM to create this script.
[01:10] <SebNaitsabes> twisted_stell: next place to look is the hidden  dot folders ./  folders in Home
[01:10] <jramsey> Jav13r, but remove it as root :)
[01:10] <tanath> afallenhope: amarok
[01:10] <twisted_steel> tanath: yeah, I usually see fla-whatever for flash files and whatnot, but nothing for this movie
[01:10] <bazhang> !players | afallenhope
[01:10] <afallenhope> that will play online radio streams... like asf?
[01:11] <twisted_steel> maybe I'm SOL :P
[01:11] <SebNaitsabes> twisted_steel: next place to look is the hidden ./ folders in the home folder
[01:11] <Jav13r> jramsey: should i remove with apt-get remove thunderbird?
[01:11] <tanath> twisted_steel: try this in terminal: 'lsof | grep totem'
[01:11] <NicholasBernhard> Hello all, would anyone be willing to help with a quick wifi problem?
[01:11] <SebNaitsabes> !wifi
[01:11] <tanath> twisted_steel: or tmp instead of totem
[01:11] <jramsey> Jav13r, yeah as root or sudo apt-get pkg-name
[01:11] <avatarone> !busybox
[01:11] <hydester> jim-Dandy, grrr.  firewall :(
[01:11] <tanath> afallenhope: yep
[01:11] <d[X_X]b> where is conky config file in ub 8.04
[01:11] <bloodrock> afallenhope, i'm useing gnome mplayer seems nice
[01:12] <twisted_steel> thanks all, I will poke around and see if I can see anything
[01:12] <SebNaitsabes> !mplayer
[01:12] <avatarone> is there any way I can get to GUI from BusyBox? Sory for being kinda boring with this question :)
[01:12] <hydester> jim-Dandy, i didn't realize it would matter since it was on my local lan.  not port 9100 either.  the browsing for it was still not getting through
[01:12] <NicholasBernhard> My question can't be found at the wifi documents
[01:12] <jramsey> Jav13r, sudo apt-get remove mozilla-thunderbird
[01:13] <reya276> Does anyone know how to fix the Firefox Flash video issue? It keeps crashing when I try to play a flash video
[01:13] <SebNaitsabes> NicholasBernhard:  setting up a wifi with Linux depending on your hardware can be a right issue, because of lack of Linux manufacture suppourt
[01:13] <bloodrock> afall another thing you might try is streamtuner if you want to listen to streams
[01:13] <Jav13r> jramsey:  its done
[01:13] <wers> what repo has cinelerra?
[01:13] <tanath> avatarone: what gui? busybox already provides that...
[01:13] <jramsey> Jav13r, use Synaptic; search for thunderbird, mark the mozilla-thunderbird and then click apply
[01:13] <bazhang> !info cinelerra
[01:13] <tanath> reya276: works for me
[01:13] <woli> how do i change a folder icon using python?
[01:13] <SebNaitsabes> reya276:  did you get the  flash-nonfree one
[01:14] <dalcio> #ubuntu-br
[01:14] <tanath> woli: might try #python
[01:14] <reya276> no I installed the Adobe version
[01:14] <SebNaitsabes> from there website?
[01:14] <reya276> yes
[01:14] <woli> lol... i went there and they told me to try here...
[01:14] <SebNaitsabes> ok so version 9 not the beta of 10?
[01:14] <woli> "nobody knows" there
[01:14] <NicholasBernhard> SebNaitsabes: I had xubuntu and everything works. I've switched to ubuntu and roaming no longer works (everything worked in xubuntu)
[01:14] <woli> or so they claim
[01:14] <tanath> reya276: maybe that's why
[01:14] <reya276> yes version 9
[01:14] <avatarone> Tanath: I just get BusyBox that looks DOS like, so it's just a shell i persume
[01:14] <jramsey> anyone ever get bridge-utils working?
[01:14] <tanath> reya276: flashplugin-nonfree is version 9
[01:14] <kisid_one> can someone help: how do i fix this "*** The resources directory 'resdir' is missing!"
[01:14] <SebNaitsabes> NicholasBernHard:  Xubuntu could be installed   I mean then you got Ubuntu and Xubuntu
[01:14] <avatarone> can't load Ubuntu
[01:15] <woli> I've been updrading to latest ubuntu since 4pm
[01:15] <reya276> tanath: no it is not because it works just great on my work PC buddy
[01:15] <avatarone> I've tried startx
[01:15] <tanath> avatarone: hrm. well you could run 'gnome-panel' for gnome...
[01:15] <tanath> avatarone: no, x is already running
[01:15] <Housefly7k> where do i go for compiz support?
[01:15] <SebNaitsabes> NicholasBernHard: in fact if you had known this is what you should have done :)   with your working Xubuntu  get ubuntu-desktop
[01:15] <tanath> avatarone: try logging into a different session
[01:15] <avatarone> how can I run gnome-panel?
[01:15] <reya276> tanath: and I'm running the same OS(hardy)
[01:15] <tanath> Housefly7k: i believe #compiz-fusion is the channel
[01:15] <NicholasBernhard> SebNaitsbes: Point taken.
[01:16] <tanath> avatarone: you could run 'gnome-panel &' in terminal
[01:16] <SebNaitsabes> NicholasBernHard:  that's right you can have Xubuntu/XFCE   KDE/Kubuntu and Ubuntu/Gnome and other window managers all in the same install
[01:16] <Housefly7k> NicholasBernhard: thanks
[01:16] <avatarone> btw, thanx for taking time to answer my question
[01:16] <Swatfoot> hello everyone
[01:16] <tanath> avatarone: but you should be able to choose another session, such as gnome, from the login screen
[01:16] <SebNaitsabes> NicholasBernHard: which Xubuntu verison was it?
[01:16] <d[X_X]b> where is conky config file in ub 8.04
[01:16] <NicholasBernhard> SebNaitsabes: Hardy Heron 8.04
[01:16] <NicholasBernhard> So is the ubuntu
[01:16] <kisid_one> d[X_X]b, your home folder .conky.rc
[01:16] <Dante123> hey, friend has pentium celeron 800 mhz.  Will 8.04 work on that machine or woefully slow.....this is for a newbie Linux user
[01:16] <woli> so, does anybody know how to do such thing? I mean, change the folder's icon via python to a folder
[01:17] <avatarone> I get:     /bin/sh: gnome-panel: not found
[01:17] <SebNaitsabes> NicholasBernHard: look around the menus  there should be stuff for setting up a network connection
[01:17] <avatarone> I don't get login screen
[01:17] <Jav13r> jramsey:  i removed. then installed via synaptic. and guess what. same #%^&*! problem
[01:17] <avatarone> from loading it gets me straight to busybox
[01:17] <NicholasBernhard> Thanks, I'll see what I can turn up.
[01:17] <d[X_X]b> kisid_one what if it isnt there? i just installed it
[01:17] <avatarone> :S
[01:17] <tanath> woli: you're prolly best off looking for help with python in the #python channel
[01:17] <SebNaitsabes> NicholasBernHard:  system administation network try that
[01:17] <kisid_one> d[X_X]b, you can make one, just grab a template online and name it .conky.rc
[01:18] <d[X_X]b> thank you
[01:18] <kisid_one> d[X_X]b, are you viewing hidden items
[01:18] <d[X_X]b> yesd
[01:18] <woli> tanath, sorry for double-asking, but I told you that they refered me this channel on #python, because nobody claimed to know how to do it
[01:18] <hbaolong> hello
[01:18] <kisid_one> d[X_X]b, the "." before conky is important
[01:18] <Dante123> hey, friend has pentium celeron 800 mhz.  Will 8.04 work on that machine or woefully slow.....this is for a newbie Linux user
[01:18] <reya276> tanath: ok I re-install the flash-nonfree plugin
[01:18] <wittyphotons> hey, uh, does anyone know how i'd go about editing my winxp registry from linux?
[01:18] <SebNaitsabes> Dante123: how old is the computer?
[01:19] <wittyphotons> preferrably within the ubuntu gui?
[01:19] <d[X_X]b> kisid_one yea i guess you mean . for hidden
[01:19] <Housefly7k> Help with dual-monitors on hardy needed...any help
[01:19] <kisid_one> d[X_X]b, yea
[01:19] <hbaolong> how can i remove shockwave flash add-on from firefox?
[01:19] <woli> is better to hide with the .hidden list file i think
[01:19] <bloodrock> Dante123,  should work if it slow he/she could always try xbuntu
[01:19] <beford> uninstall flashplayer-nonfree
[01:19] <SebNaitsabes> hbaolong:  you got it from the network ?
[01:19] <tanath> wittyphotons: there is a wine registry editor
[01:19] <woli> specially if you use the same folders in another os
[01:19] <hbaolong> yes.
[01:19] <beford> or flashplugin-nonfree, can't remember the name
[01:19] <tanath> wittyphotons: or do you mean the registry from an actual winxp install?
[01:19] <DIL> is there a chan for xubuntu
[01:19] <SebNaitsabes> bbalong:  open a termianl and  sudo apt-get purge  flashplayer-nonfree
[01:20] <Dante123> SebNaitsabes I have no idea.  Does has 512 memory
[01:20] <beford> #xubuntu
[01:20] <DIL> ty
[01:20] <SebNaitsabes> Dante123:  yes Ubuntu should run good with 512
[01:20] <hbaolong> OK,i'll try it .
[01:20] <kisid_one> hbaolong, are you trying to remove flash or flash from firefox?
[01:20] <tanath> wittyphotons: not sure if there's an app for that, but you could use a livedisc for windows
[01:20] <hbaolong> yes.
[01:20] <SebNaitsabes> Dante123: it's not VIsta :d with a 1GB requirement
[01:20] <Dante123> okay, will give that a try.  My main thing is that ubuntu looks good and is fairly easy for newbies...that is why I want to stick with regular ubuntu...
[01:21] <woli> how much systematic RAM does ubuntu use?
[01:21] <hbaolong> the shockwave is bad for flash, i want install another one.
[01:21] <ak47> why does it say doesn't support RPM installation'
[01:21] <kisid_one> Dante123, SebNaitsabes - it is going to run a little slow, you should use xubuntu or fluxbuntu
[01:21] <SebNaitsabes> Dante123:  also other distros to look at if Ubuntu is not so good on that computer
[01:21] <wittyphotons> tanath, what is a livedisc for windows?
[01:21] <Nostahl> hi all im trying to play a dvd movie in ubuntu and its looking like scrambled porn?
[01:21] <Dante123> SebNaitsabes....I think Vista needs at least 2gb doesn't it.  I was thinking of puppy linux if ubuntu is too slow
[01:21] <woli> the way to install ubuntu
[01:21] <SebNaitsabes> Dante123:  well yes use another  window manager desktop envrionemnt such as Xubuntu or Fluxbuntu if  Gnome is running not so well.  or try another distro such as Damn Small Linux
[01:21] <avatarone> all i get is (initramfs)   ...
[01:21] <kisid_one> hbaolong, check the .mozilla folder, you can remove the simlink to flash
[01:22] <SebNaitsabes> Dante123: or Puppy Linux
[01:22] <woli> you insert disc, use ubuntu as if it was installed, and then install ubuntu from it
[01:22] <bloodrock> ak47 cause rpm is for red het you need to get alien a prog that makes a rpm into a .deb
[01:22] <kisid_one> hbaolong, give me a sec and i will check
[01:22] <jf_> Hi everyone, quick question...I just installed Apache2 and all the files are in var/www which isn't writable by the default user.

[01:30] <ak47>   To install/upgrade VMware Tools for Linux,
[01:30] <ak47>   run the program "vmware-install.pl" from a command prompt, either in text
[01:30] <ak47>   mode or from a terminal inside an X session. You must have super user
[01:30] <ak47>   privileges (i.e. be logged as root) to run it.
[01:30] <FloodBot3> ak47: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:30] <afallenhope> I saw that there's guardog
[01:30] <bloodrock> avatarone, did you try the option to recover ubuntu at bootup
[01:30] <ak47> Do i sudo ./vmware-install.pl??
[01:30] <avatarone> how do i do that? i have the dual boot
[01:31] <steve__> Is Fire Fox 3 RC1 going to be on 8.04!?!?!?!?!?!?!
[01:31] <steve__> and update
[01:31] <bloodrock> avat you do the wubi intall
[01:31] <bloodrock> *install
[01:31] <KyleS-home> Anyone else in here having stability issues?
[01:31] <avatarone> wubi install?
[01:31] <steve__> no linux is amazing
[01:31] <KyleS-home> Cheese is acting up, as well as applications crashing
[01:32] <steve__> yes i had problem with cheese too
[01:32] <bloodrock> avatarone,  did you install ubuntu from livecd or inside windows
[01:32] <kisid_one> hbaolong, "cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins" change the flashplugin-* to something else
[01:32] <KyleS-home> Suppose it's the 2.6.24 kernel? or perhaps all the new features in gnome?
[01:32] <Swatfoot> yeah linux is great just could not get my xfi card to work
[01:32] <avatarone> live cd
[01:32] <KyleS-home> maybe the 169 nvidia driver?
[01:32] <KyleS-home> I'm having issues :(
[01:32] <avatarone> i did start it from win, the cd
[01:32] <steve__> i had some problems with firefox too
[01:32] <kisid_one> hbaolong, good luck, i am going to go, but i hope it all works ok
[01:32] <avatarone> then took that option where ubuntu helps you out to boot from cd
[01:32] <KyleS-home> same steve__
[01:32] <avatarone> and then got the live cd
[01:32] <steve__> I say new gnome fetures
[01:33] <KyleS-home> ah
[01:33] <steve__> it needs time to get smoothed out
[01:33] <KyleS-home> cause I'm having this issue on Arch Linux too
[01:33] <avatarone> installed it on a partition that i've chosen manualy
[01:33] <hbaolong> but nothing in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.
[01:33] <hbaolong> see you.
[01:33] <KyleS-home> that's why I was wondering :P

[01:33] <avatarone> and as a point choosed "/"
[01:33] <Housefly7k> I cant follow any of the online guides since my xorg looks different
[01:33] <bloodrock> ok then at bootup you should have option to recover ubuntu in the grub menu
[01:33] <steve__> Yeah i have no answers kyle, i am experiencing the same things though
[01:33] <KyleS-home> I can't wait until the 2.24 gnome myself

[01:57] <Morgans> Myrtti,: When i move my mouse cursor on the desktop it selects applications without clicking on it like when i open 2 shells terminals and i move my cursor from terminal 1 to terminal 2 it selects terminals without clicking on them
[01:57] <arbir> anybody has found a difference between totem and vlc in terms of video quality ?
[01:57] <lwizardl> anyone here have experience with setup linux point of sale machines using ubuntu?
[01:58] <Broadcom> Morgans, seems stupid, but do you have a autoclicker on?
[01:58] <Myrtti> sorry folks, I'm getting really tired here
[01:58] <Morgans> how to disable
[01:58] <Morgans> autoclicker
[01:58] <NEUR0M4NCER> Morgans: have you got mouse-over set to focus?
[01:58] <Morgans> it might that the problem is with a autoclicker
[01:58] <Broadcom> Morgans: well, a window would be open if it were on
[01:59] <tj1515> Myrtti: did u see the error i posted? do u know why i got it
[01:59] <Broadcom> tj1515: use pastebin
[01:59] <robdig> Morgans: system->preferences->windows, uncheck the box at the top
[01:59] <Myrtti> tj1515: you don't have all the repositories enabled
[01:59] <Gazoz> how can i make my dual-boot PC a mono boot PC i want ubuntu to boot automatically  with out asking which OS to load
[01:59] <tj1515> how?
[01:59] <Myrtti> !info unrar | tj1515
[01:59] <Morgans> I just move a mouse cursor to diferent window it selects a window without clicking on it
[01:59] <tj1515> ok
[01:59] <Vicfred> how do i mount a mp3 player which is not mounting automatically?
[01:59] <Myrtti> tj1515: you've got to have multiverse enabled
[01:59] <ari_stress> morning all
[01:59] <Myrtti> tj1515: system - administration - software sources
[01:59] <Morgans> robdig,: you are the the man
[02:00] <Morgans> Thank you guys
[02:00] <Firefishe> I'm having a recurring problem with certain sound files locking up the system for a bit when using, say, xmms and amarok music players, reading .mp3 files from /media/hda1 (WinXP).  Some output here:  http://pastebin.com/m481f446f
[02:00] <Morgans> Problem solved
[02:00] <Myrtti> tick multiverse on
[02:00] <robdig> Morgans: np
[02:00] <arbir> Myrtti: where can i find shortcut keys for Totem player ?
[02:00] <Firefishe> I don' t know if I have ntfs file system errors, the sound files are bad, or what.
[02:00] <Morgans> Myrtti,: Anyway thanks for your help
[02:00] <tj1515> it is on
[02:00] <tj1515> it has a check
[02:00] <BinaryFu> Okay, quick question...how do you remove all of one type of file, including subdirectories? So, rm *.txt for example?
[02:01] <Starnestommy> BinaryFu: rm -r ./*.txt
[02:01] <BinaryFu> ./ is what I forgot...thanks.
[02:01] <justdave> I've got a box I'd like to install Ubuntu on...  but it has no CD-ROM drive, no floppy drive, and it's not PXE-capable
[02:01] <Starnestommy> BinaryFu: and the -r
[02:01] <Gazoz> how can i make my dual-boot (XP/Ubuntu) PC a mono-boot (Ubuntu) PC? i want ubuntu to boot automatically  without asking which OS to load?
[02:01] <justdave> I can take the hard drive out, and in theory install it to the drive from another machine, then put it back...
[02:01] <BinaryFu> No, I was doing the -r, it just kept telling me there was no such file or directory
[02:01] <NEUR0M4NCER> justdave: Does it have USB, or can you add it?
[02:01] <justdave> actually yeah, it does have USB
[02:02] <BinaryFu> No, my bad, that was when I just tried your method.
[02:02] <Swatfoot> -r does that mean recursive
[02:02] <Firefishe> -rf ??
[02:02] <justdave> I'm not sure if it's capable of booting from it though, it's an pretty old box
[02:02] <Starnestommy> Swatfoot: it does
[02:02] <NEUR0M4NCER> justdave: If you've got access to another box, you can make a live USB to install from. It's a bit awkward though.
[02:02] <lwizardl> Gazoz: is ubuntu the first OS listed in the GRUB loader?
[02:02] <BinaryFu> That one gave me zero issues, but still didn't cut the mustard.
[02:02] <Gazoz> yes
[02:02] <bazhang> justdave, windows on there now?
[02:02] <tj1515> !info unrar
[02:02] <illriginal> does anyone know if 8.04 is really freaking buggy?... Amarok freezes, Firefox freezes, Nicotine freezes... this is by far the worst Distro I've ever had on my PC.
[02:03] <durka> question: i am trying to add a startup program, but it needs to be run with a certain current directory, how do i do that
[02:03] <NEUR0M4NCER> bazhang: Good one - forgot about the Win installer.
[02:03] <lwizardl> Gazoz: then just leave the loader open for 10 secs and ubuntu will auto boot
[02:03] <woli> why are 84 of my packages obsolete? (i'm upgrading)
[02:03] <Myrtti> woli: because they are old
[02:03] <justdave> bazhang: no, it's got a custom-built linux distro that's about 7 years old on it, looks like it's loosely based on Slackware
[02:03] <woli> uh ok
[02:03] <BinaryFu> I need to rm 1 type of file within a directory tree, including ALL files in the subdirectories of said type.
[02:03] <woli> so they will be replaced with new ones?
[02:03] <justdave> and there's no dev toolchain, so I can't compile anything
[02:03] <bazhang> justdave, then unetbootin if it has internet
[02:03] <Myrtti> woli: basically yes.
[02:03] <illriginal> will hardy be replaced? this distro sucks =\
[02:04] <Gazoz> lwizardl - i know i just don't want to see this list and wait 10 secs, besides.. i don't use XP any more
[02:04] <tj1515> hardy has been the best one for me so far
[02:04] <NEUR0M4NCER> justdave: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[02:04] <justdave> but it's x86 so I could probably drop statically-linked binaries on it and have them work
[02:04] <durka> Gazoz: in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:04] <illriginal> hardy has been horrible... it keeps freezing up all my programs.
[02:04] <durka> there is a line that says "timeout 10"
[02:05] <tj1515> 64 or x86
[02:05]  * Firefishe is still using Feisty 7.04, the box is almost five years old, kde is 3.5.6, and life is good :)
[02:05] <justdave> hmm, actually, it's got a whole mess of partitions on the drive right now...
[02:05] <Swatfoot> lets play whos line is it ahhha
[02:05] <hjc> sorry about this begginer question but when i am manually partitioning my Ubuntu for a duall boot on Ubuntu 7.10 live cd what should I do?
[02:05] <justdave> some of them are shadow partitions intended for emergency restore and so forth
[02:05] <illriginal> x86
[02:05] <Gazoz> so should i change it to 0
[02:05] <lwizardl> Gazoz: durka has the correct info, or google on how to remove XP from the loader and then partition the XP drive
[02:05] <hjc> sorry about this begginer question but when i am manually partitioning my Ubuntu for a duall boot on Ubuntu 7.10 live cd what should I do?
[02:05] <tj1515> i had problems with 64 but x86 has been running nice with me
[02:05] <justdave> if I dd an iso image onto one of those partitions, would it be bootable from there? :)
[02:06] <Vicfred> how do i mount a mp3 player which is not mounting automatically?
[02:06] <D0ugh_B0ii> hey what is the code to get the ndiswrapper utils?
[02:06] <BinaryFu> Meh, I'm going to have to do this the find way.
[02:06] <hjc> sorry about this begginer question but when i am manually partitioning my Ubuntu for a duall boot on Ubuntu 7.10 live cd what should I do?
[02:06] <tonyyarusso> !dualboot | hjc
[02:06] <bazhang> justdave, unetbootin or your way seem the best to go if you have internet on that
[02:06] <cirkit> Good evening. Can anyone make out this output from dmesg? http://pastebin.ca/1024421
[02:06] <NEUR0M4NCER> justdave: WAAAAY beyond my knowledge, lol.
[02:06] <tonyyarusso> hjc: Essentially, you can make it as simple or as complicated as you like.  :)
[02:06] <justdave> yeah, it's got internet
[02:06] <lwizardl> anyone here have experience with setup linux POS (point of sale) machines using ubuntu?
[02:06] <durka> Gazoz: yeah, but I would leave it at 1 or 2; in case you change your mind you can cancel the automatic boot by pressing an arrow key
[02:06] <tonyyarusso> hjc: However, the most basic tip is install Windows first, Ubuntu second.
[02:06] <bazhang> then either will do justdave
[02:06] <illriginal> what's the command to stop gdm?...
[02:06] <Makuseru> hi, im having a problem with playback in Ardour, when i record it shows the "waveform" (i think thats what it is) and everything, so i know its actually recoding it, but it looks weird, http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/9007/snapshot37cu7.png like that, and when i try to play it back i get no sound, even if i export it and try to play in something else. whats wrong here, and why does the "waveform" look like that? the grey and red
[02:06] <illriginal> I can't even log out of my user -,
[02:06] <hjc> yes, i have windows currently
[02:06] <Starnestommy> illriginal: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[02:07] <cirkit> My Lenovo laptop with Hardy can't see my wireless AP on channel 11. Can make out of this output? http://pastebin.ca/1024421
[02:07] <arbir> anybody finds, video quality of mplayer better than totem or vlc ?
[02:07] <tonyyarusso> hjc: If you wish, you can use the "resize hda1 and automatically partition the rest" option rather than full manual, or whatever it's called.
[02:07] <trunks> hello
[02:07] <yvan_> Hi all, has anyone been successful in installing a webcam in Ubuntu?
[02:07] <tj1515> yep its easy
[02:07] <tj1515> easier then windows for me
[02:08] <illriginal> What's the command to stop gdm, please.
[02:08] <hjc> on my cd only two options are given
[02:08] <justdave> this is actually a pretty nifty piece of hardware for how old it is...  it's about the size of a Mac Mini, and has a 7" touchscreen on the front, meant to hang on a wall
[02:08] <tonyyarusso> yvan_: doing your research and buying a supported one is the biggest factor.
[02:08] <trunks> I'd like some help to get recursivly a website
[02:08] <tj1515>  illriginal: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[02:08] <hjc> tonyyarusso: on my cd only two options are given
[02:08] <justdave> 2.5" hard drive, USB, ethernet, and a PCMCIA slot
[02:08] <tonyyarusso> hjc: oh really?  Which version of Ubuntu, and which kind of CD?
[02:08] <NEUR0M4NCER> hjc: http://apcmag.com/the_definitive_dualbooting_guide_linux_vista_and_xp_stepbystep.htm
[02:08] <durka> cirkit: do you have the encryption key right? it looks like the auth is timing out
[02:08] <justdave> the software that came on it is intended for scheduling a conference room
[02:08] <Steve-cal> Does anyone have experience using the linux-rt package, i.e. realtime enabled kernel? For one thing I'm using ndiswrapper for my wireless, and I read that ndiswrapper breaks under linux-rt. Anyone have any thoughts/experience to offer?
[02:09] <hjc> tonyyarusso: Ubuntu 7.10 my friend got for me
[02:09] <ezzieyguywuf> which script controls what happens when i press fn+f4 to make my computer suspend? i have a custom script that I want ubuntu to run
[02:09] <tonyyarusso> Steve-cal: I know Mythbuntu uses the RT kernel, so perhaps the people in #mythbuntu will have run across that.
[02:09] <trunks> I'm trying: wget -rkpE --limit-rate=1k [website] but i've only got index.html
[02:09] <tonyyarusso> hjc: huh, okay.  (I don't use the desktop CDs much).
[02:09] <trunks> somebody can help me?
[02:09] <Sonja> i have thisproblem with java http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5004933
[02:09] <hjc> ill just try it and see what happens
[02:09] <D0ugh_B0ii> hey what is the code to get the ndiswrapper utils?
[02:10] <Steve-cal> tonyyarusso: Thanks I'll check that channel out.
[02:10] <cirkit> durka: I'll double check that. Just odd the SSID is not broadcasting.
[02:10] <tonyyarusso> ezzieyguywuf: probably something in /etc/acpi/, but I've only fiddled there once, so...
[02:10]  * cirkit double checks everything
[02:10] <Starnestommy> D0ugh_B0ii: sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[02:10] <justdave> want to try to customize the thing a bit, but the software that came on it is all java, and I hate java :)
[02:10] <afallenhope> who ever told me about Amarok I luh you
[02:10] <afallenhope> lol
[02:10] <ezzieyguywuf> i know the script that controls suspend, but i don't know what in ubuntu tells it to go to that script when i press fn+f4
[02:10] <durka> D0ugh_B0ii: sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 ?
[02:10] <ezzieyguywuf> anyone else?
[02:10] <D0ugh_B0ii> yea thx
[02:10] <ezzieyguywuf> thanks btw tony
[02:10] <justdave> (and there's no source, it's all compiled class files)
[02:11] <trunks> could anybody help me to get a website?
[02:11] <justdave> would be cool to write something simple with python or somesuch to use on it
[02:11] <bazhang> trunks what about downthemall ff plugin
[02:11] <Swatfoot> host or just a domain
[02:11] <trunks> I ll try
[02:12] <woli> lol... i was developing a script to read windows autorun files and put icons to drives mounted, but after update i saw it was already done! damn!
[02:12] <trunks> I tried a recursive wget
[02:12] <mvip> anyone got any experience with replicating/distributed filesystems?
[02:12] <trunks> but i've only download the index.html
[02:13] <Firefishe> I'm getting strange errors when reading certain .mp3 files on either xmms or amarok from my linux side:  Some output:  http://pastebin.com/m481f446f
[02:13] <otg> x8
[02:13] <Firefishe> ie, linux side reading ntfs partition
[02:13] <otg> 嗨
[02:14] <trunks> bazhang, i'm juste watching about downthemall, does it only dl link of the page or is it recursif?
[02:14] <bazhang> !cn | otg
[02:14] <lwizardl> H5
[02:14] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: Have you tried to drag them on over to a Linux partition and see if you get the same issue?
[02:14] <SilverMx> Guys Help! Somebody use UBUNTU with video card nVidia GeForce 9500GS ?
[02:15] <woli> lol 5900 Ultra!!!!!
[02:15] <woli> if you could swap the first 2 digits i could help tou!
[02:15] <woli> you*
[02:15] <Firefishe> BinaryFu:  I've tried that before, but  usually get the same problem.
[02:15] <SilverMx> )
[02:15] <Firefishe> BinaryFu:  did you read the pastebin?
[02:15] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: No, toss it out there again?
[02:15] <woli> SilverMx, whats your problem anyway?
[02:15] <Firefishe> http://pastebin.com/m481f446f
[02:16] <hisingh1> Hello! anyone familiar with how to clear the terminal history
[02:16] <bazhang> SilverMx, those may only be covered with beta driver as they are so new; you can try envyng-gtk to test though
[02:16] <lwizardl> anyone here have experience with setting up Linux POS (Point of Sale) machines ?
[02:16] <Firefishe> not I lwizardl
[02:16] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: What kind of error do you get if you run it from a Linux partition though?
[02:17] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: I'm guessing not an NTFS-fs error
[02:17] <bazhang> Firefishe, seems an error reading from the ntfs partition
[02:17] <BinaryFu> bazhang: That's what I'm thinking, but he said he's getting similar from a 'nix partition.
[02:17] <SilverMx> bazhang: wow, where i can get that driver?
[02:17] <Firefishe> BinaryFu:  That is the error I get when running it from the linux partition.  I'm using either xmms or amarok to read the file *on the ntfs partition*.  That output is in ALT-F1 Terminal.
[02:18] <bazhang> !info envyng-gtk | SilverMx
[02:18] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: Okay, maybe I'm not too clear on how I say this..."If the music file, is relocated to the Linux partition, and then played, while in Linux...what happens?"
[02:18] <bazhang> Firefishe, no ntfs on linux
[02:19] <SilverMx> ubottu: just only 324 kb ?! oh my god
[02:19] <SilverMx> nice ^^
[02:19] <Firefishe> bazhang:  Actually, the read/write problem, so far as I thought, was supposed to have been handled.
[02:19] <Firefishe> bazhang:  Hasn't it?
[02:19] <SilverMx> bazhang: only 324 kb ?! ^^
[02:19] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: It's been handled as well as Paris Hilton.
[02:20] <bazhang> Firefishe, copy some over to your ubuntu partition and try again
[02:20] <BinaryFu> ^^
[02:20] <afallenhope> w00t
[02:20] <Firefishe> bazhang:  And, so far as read-only is concerned, I have never had a problem with that until now.
[02:20] <afallenhope> is there a front-end for ufw?
[02:20] <afallenhope> like GUI?
[02:20] <Firefishe> k, let me try the copy-over thing...one sec
[02:20] <Firefishe> the file in question is easy to find
[02:20] <BinaryFu> Good deal...
[02:21] <yaman> hi every one any one knows how can i set a proxy for all of the system ? i have a network and i want to set the proxy enviroment so it redirect every connection like wget to the proxy ? and i need the shortcut for languge switching in the kubuntu plz
[02:21] <azzco> Anyone know how to increase the volume for recording things with pulseaudio?
[02:21]  * BinaryFu fights to keep silent...
[02:22]  * BinaryFu puts forth valiant effort in not saying, "Install ALSA?"
[02:22]  * Nith hands BinaryFu a lolli for his effort
[02:22] <BinaryFu> azzco: No clue on that one bud...I'm not much on the old pulseaudio.
[02:22] <BinaryFu> Thanks Nith...that was a tough one.
[02:22] <eric_noob> simple question, but new to gnome and ubuntu: how to i change the shortcut for deskbar-applet to the windows/super key instead of alt+f3?
[02:22] <bazhang> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#Tor.2Cprivoxy_and_Tor_GUI_.28Vidalia.29 yaman
[02:22] <eric_noob> or atleast hwat command line path will open it up
[02:22] <azzco> BinaryFu: I have my reasons for using pulseaudio =/
[02:23] <woli> how do you say those ***nick messages?
[02:23] <Starnestommy> woli: /me
[02:23] <woli> oh, like in msn
[02:23]  * woli just knew how to say messages
[02:23] <BinaryFu> azzco: I understand...there's always some sort of evil lurking in everyone's lives.
[02:23]  * BinaryFu welcomes woli to IRC!
[02:23] <BinaryFu> Now don't abuse the power.
[02:23] <yaman> bazhang: what about the short cut to switch between languages ?
[02:23] <bazhang> easy on the /me messages
[02:24] <wobblywu> is there any proper method of adding applications to auto-startup through the terminal in Ubuntu 8.04?
[02:24] <eric_noob> How to reassign the shortcut for deskbar-applet to another key sequence, I just don't see where to do it
[02:24] <Firefishe> bazhang:  Apparently the file must be corrupt.  I say this because it copied all of 512KB over to my kde desktop, but it also gave me an error popup which said it couldn't copy it, at least it didn't copy it all.  Just the front part of End of the Innocence by
[02:24] <Firefishe> Don Henley
[02:25] <Firefishe> fingers slipped LOL
[02:25] <david__> i would definatley tell you if i knew
[02:25] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: So...wait a sec....
[02:25] <robdig> eric_noob: system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts
[02:25] <Firefishe> BinaryFu:  k
[02:25] <bazhang> Firefishe, sounds more like there issues with that partition than anything
[02:25] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: You have a problem transferring data from one "supposedly" fine partition, to one that's obviously working just peachy...
[02:25] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: And the file's corrupt?
[02:25] <Roey> hello all.  I have pidgin freezing on me in Ubuntu 8.04 only 20s after I launch it... anyone else get this?
[02:25] <Roey> hey randall
[02:25] <robdig> wobblywu: do you mean when you boot or when you open a shell?
[02:26] <bazhang> Firefishe, best boot into windows and defrag that partition pronto
[02:26] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: It could be possible that bazhang NAILED the issue in under 20 seconds when he said your NTFS partition could have an issue.
[02:26] <randall> hey roey
[02:26] <eric_noob> which action control deskbar- i  don't seem to see it listed there
[02:26] <wobblywu> robdig, when I boot (or, specifically, log into my session)
[02:26] <wobblywu> robdig, the key being I want to do it through terminal, not through the Sessions dialog
[02:26] <david__> im trying to get gcc to compile stuff eith the gcc (arguments) comand could someone help?
[02:27] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: I'd do what bazhang says, the words spoken are wise indeed.
[02:27] <BinaryFu> Good call bazhang
[02:27] <bazhang> BinaryFu, just thought of it after reading what you wrote
[02:27] <robdig> wobblywu: looking
[02:27] <Starnestommy> david__: what exactly are you trying to do with gcc?
[02:27] <wobblywu> robdig, thanks :)
[02:27] <Firefishe> BinaryFu:  There are two music files in that folder.  I successfully tranfered the other one over, and it is playing fine.  The other one not only didn't transfer completely and gave me an error, but it also gave that weird output at http://pastebin.com/m481f446f when played in a music player.
[02:27] <david__> make files
[02:27] <david__> and just general c compiling
[02:27] <BinaryFu> bazhang: Awww shucks, glad I could throw my two cents over the cliff. :)
[02:27] <bazhang> robdig, that should be in sessions startup
[02:27] <hisingh1> Hello! anyone familiar with how to clear the terminal history
[02:27] <Firefishe> I'll defrag it, but it was just done a while ago.
[02:28] <bazhang> BinaryFu, :)
[02:28] <Firefishe> $clear
[02:28] <Starnestommy> david__: gcc -o output-filename input-file.c
[02:28] <david__> ok thanks ill try
[02:28] <Firefishe> sorry...leading space in front of $   as in    $ clear
[02:28] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: If the defrag doesn't cut it, then yeah, the file itself could have been chopped up and served to some mean codemonger as sushi.
 if i do that it just clears the terminal screen, i wnat to clear the whole history
[02:28] <Starnestommy> david__: then ./output-filename to run the new program
[02:29] <Firefishe> hisingh1: oh, I dunno, sowwy
[02:29] <hisingh1> ]k
[02:29] <alexbOrsova> Hey, if anyone cares, ubuntu ships with a wordlist which is found in /usr/share/dict/. I thought I should share that with everyone.
[02:29] <wobblywu> could I just add shortcuts to ~/.bash_profile/ to auto-start applications?
[02:29] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: are you here?
[02:29] <d4t4min3r> i cant watch this dvd i just bought
[02:29] <david__> ive seen that wordlist before
[02:29] <d4t4min3r> i installed the codec and i installed vlc and both wont load the dvd
[02:29] <bazhang> !dvd | d4t4min3r
[02:29] <d4t4min3r> can anyone help me
[02:29] <wobblywu> minus the /
[02:29] <BinaryFu> hisingh1: What are you using for chat? Because I use pidgin, and I just tell it to NEVER EVER EVER log anything...EVER. And that seems to solve the problem.
[02:29] <ubuntufreak> What is the best backup utility for Ubuntu 8.04
[02:29] <wobblywu> wait nevermind, that was a stupid question -- confused a few files there
[02:30] <BinaryFu> ubuntufreak: The one that works for your scenario...I think there's a few Cli and a few GUI
 i dont care much about chat history, i care about Terminal history
[02:30] <Firefishe> BinaryFu, bazhang:  One other weird thing is, when I boot into doze, it takes *forever*.  The h/d spins and spins and spins, then, after about 5 minutes, finally stops, but occasionally speeds up again, hangs everything up for a long time, then quiets down again.
[02:30] <Firefishe> Not that I like that side of the drive much these days :)
[02:30] <Starnestommy> hisingh1: echo "" > ~/.bash_history
 i want it to stop logging what erve i type
[02:31] <ubuntufreak> BinaryFu: Can you tell me some
[02:31]  * Firefishe is gone to defrag
[02:31] <BinaryFu> Firefishe: Sounds like that drive is going up.
[02:31] <BinaryFu> ubuntufreak: What kind of backup are you looking for? Complete system? /home only? Just a few files here and there?
[02:32] <cedarchang> hello
[02:32] <david__> dude. google it
 what will that do? i tried it but nothing happened
[02:32] <jeyk> is there a way I can tell apt-get to always include the "-dev" versions of packages? I'm getting quite irritated by having to track down the appropriate missing packages always... (e.g. for "imagemagick" I also turned out to need "libmagick9-dev")
[02:32] <ubuntufreak> BinaryFu: Complete system backup
[02:32] <Starnestommy> hisingh1: exit all terminals, then go back in.
[02:32] <Starnestommy> hisingh1: the history should be clear
[02:32] <arbir> is back
[02:33] <BinaryFu> ubuntufreak: IF you are into the whole CLI thing, there's backup-manager...which is supposed to be pretty solid...
[02:33] <arbir> anybody knows shortcut keys for Totem player ?
[02:33] <hisingh1> thanks a lot <Starnestommy>
 i think it is best to make an alias
[02:33] <Starnestommy> hisingh1: that won't stop new things from being added to the history, though
[02:33] <ubuntufreak> BinaryFu: How do i access it
[02:33] <SebNaitsabes> k
[02:33] <SebNaitsabes> l
[02:33] <jeyk> hisingh1: an alias to what?
[02:33] <BinaryFu> ubuntufreak: Hop on into synaptic package manager and do a search "system backup" you'll find scads of things in there.
[02:34] <ubuntufreak> BinaryFu: Ok would that now
[02:34] <jeyk> hisingh1: it's not as simple as "imagemagick-dev" when installing "imagemagick" --- I had to install "libmagick9-dev" to get the devel stuff
[02:35] <d4t4min3r> i installed xine and it wont play my dvd either
[02:35] <d4t4min3r> can anyone help me
[02:35] <Swatfoot> Hi ,im just beginning to learn python I want to be able to run my programs from /home/username/Documents I add this to my $path so i should be able to run the program just by typing the name in terminal but it dosnt work
[02:35] <hisingh1> oh, sorry i miss read, i thought you wanted a shortcut
[02:35] <Starnestommy> hisingh1: actually, "history -c" works better
[02:35] <jeyk> Swatfoot: you need to add a #!/usr/bin/python   line to the top of your file
[02:35] <BinaryFu> ubuntufreak: Yeah, for me, a lot of times, when I want to find a certain type of program, I just use the package manager almost like google, and I can find a LOT of interesting stuff in the repositories.
[02:35] <hisingh1> sorry jeyk
[02:35] <jeyk> no prob
[02:35] <jeyk> thanks for trying :)

[02:36] <kyle_> bazhang, I am not talking about ubuntu... someone wants to send me a dvd image of some videos and I am trying to figure out what would be the best way
[02:36] <kyle_> does ubuntu have a way to unzip stuff?
[02:36] <BinaryFu> ubuntufreak: Awesome! Enjoy bud! :)
[02:36] <bazhang> got the stuff from medibuntu? d4t
[02:37] <d4t4min3r> vlc, xine, and the defualt ubuntu app

[02:37] <DaveyJ> recently i've been having problems with my sound drivers
[02:37] <d4t4min3r> can anyone help me
[02:37] <DaveyJ> like if firefox is open,amarok wont work
[02:37] <kyle_> BinaryFu, should I use 7zip or just archive manager if it is a multilevel ziip?
[02:37] <Starnestommy> d4t4min3r: did you install libdvdcss?
[02:37] <DaveyJ> now when i try to run amarok it says it coudlnt initialize the xine engine
[02:38] <kyle_> multi-volume zip
[02:38] <d4t4min3r> how can i check
[02:38] <DaveyJ> is there a way to like 'reboot' or restart my sound service?
[02:38] <BinaryFu> kyle_: I'd just let the archive manager take care of it...it's pretty solid imho.
[02:38] <d4t4min3r> Starnestommy: how can i check
[02:38] <Swatfoot> JEYK do i have to save it as .py
[02:38] <SeaPhor> afallenhope, hey, did you get fixed up, or have to re-install?
[02:38] <jeyk> Swatfoot: no
[02:38] <bazhang> if you went to medibuntu then you got it d4t4min3r
[02:38] <jeyk> Swatfoot: but you do need to make it executable
[02:38] <jeyk> Swatfoot: and you need that #! line
[02:38] <Noak3> ho-hum
[02:38] <wobblywu> robdig, any luck?
[02:38] <Starnestommy> d4t4min3r: did you do everything on https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html ?
[02:39] <d4t4min3r> yes
[02:39] <d4t4min3r> still wotn play
[02:39] <bazhang> sounds like hd-dvd or blu-ray then
[02:39] <d4t4min3r> its just a regular dvd
[02:39] <Swatfoot> ah i need to make chmod a+x
[02:39] <hisingh1> Hey! what is the best version of ubuntu EX:kubuntu, ubuntu studio...
[02:39] <ray_> what are you trying to get done with a dvd
[02:39] <ray_> i take it not playing
[02:39] <d4t4min3r> just watch it
[02:39] <d4t4min3r> lol
[02:40] <afallenhope> SeaPhor: I fixed it. basically the tutorial on ubuntu's site sucked. I went to the grub website and followed the recvering thing
[02:40] <bazhang> hisingh1, ask in #ubuntu-bots
[02:40] <Flannel> hisingh1: There is no best version, its all a matter of personal preference.  And as far as studio and stuff go, what you're looking to accomplish.
[02:40] <BinaryFu> ^^
 i want lots of eyecandy, and then the normal user stuff
[02:40] <Flannel> hisingh1: Ubuntu is probably the one you're looking for.
 i already have the latest compiz
[02:41] <Gr34t3st> Can anyone help me with the installation of Ubuntu 8.04 on a windows ME laptop?!
 ya i figured
[02:41] <bazhang> hisingh1, then ubuntu with screenlets and awn
[02:41] <BinaryFu> hisingh1: If you like KDE style, use Kubuntu, if you like gnome style, use ubuntu.
[02:41] <d4t4min3r> Could not read from resource. is what movie player says

[02:42] <Steve-cal> Gr34t3st: Just use the installer that comes on the Ubuntu LiveCD.
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> hisingh1 http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=5303
[02:42] <Gr34t3st> Steve-cal: I've tried that's what I need help with
[02:42] <BinaryFu> pen: Do you mean, "How do I fool a program into thinking it's going through ESD even though it's going through ALSA?" or do you mean, "How do I make the program think it's running ALSA when it's actually ESD?"
[02:42] <MeKi> anyone here have a dv9000 laptop
[02:42] <pen> maybe
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> hisingh1 see also cairo dock
[02:42] <pen> BinaryFu, maybe, yea
[02:42] <Steve-cal> Gr34t3st: OK, be specific then--give the details of where your at, or how far you got. :)
[02:42] <BinaryFu> Steve-cal: He just said it's on an ME laptop...I'm guessing 64mb of ram tops...
[02:43] <d4t4min3r> can anyoen here help me with a dvd playing issue
[02:43] <pen> BinaryFu, because pulseaudio is a no go
[02:43] <MeKi> or a geforce/go 7150  card?
[02:43] <d4t4min3r> usually vlc will play any dvd i through at it
[02:43] <BinaryFu> pen: Okay...so yes to both and don't bother about the bread?
[02:43] <robdig> wobblywu: think you can put it in ~/.gnome2/session file. see man gnome-session for more info
[02:43] <Steve-cal> BinaryFu: Very good point. :)
[02:43] <pen> BinaryFu, what do you mean
[02:43] <Steve-cal> Gr34t3st: How much RAM does your computer have?
[02:43] <MeKi> 3 gigs
[02:43] <Gr34t3st> steve-cal: I've done the re-booting and the language menu comes up. I choose english then pick install Ubuntu. The loading screen comes up and then after like 10 min the screen goes blank
[02:44] <MeKi> how much does your have?
[02:44] <BinaryFu> pen: I took your question, and divided it into 2 possible questions...I'm wondering which one is the accurate one...maybe I should start off like this, "Hey pen, whatcha looking to do with your audio there bud?"
[02:44] <Steve-cal> Gr34t3st: How much RAM does your computer have?
[02:44] <d4t4min3r> can anyone help me
[02:44] <pen> BinaryFu, lol, I'm just looking for alternatives, since pulseaudio really is a mess
[02:44] <BinaryFu> pen: Ooooohhhh.
[02:44] <Gr34t3st> let me go check (it's a different computer)
[02:44] <DaveyJ> recently i've been having problems with my sound drivers; like if firefox is open,amarok wont work. now when i try to run amarok it says it coudlnt initialize the xine engine
[02:45] <pen> BinaryFu, fire away, I want to hear both
[02:45] <mixter> ok can anyone see me now?
[02:45] <BinaryFu> pen: I prefer to do a search in Syn for ALSA and then install all things ALSA, and then go into the sound section of my system, and tell it that everything is to run through ALSA.
[02:45] <Starnestommy> mixter: maybe
[02:45] <DaveyJ> mixter: nope, keep trying
[02:45] <mixter> thank you
[02:45] <BinaryFu> pen: And then I write the word, ALSA a lot while listening to every thing on my system work perfectly.
[02:46] <mixter> i cant my nvidia card to work with hardy
[02:46] <afallenhope> Is there any linux packet sniffers that have a GUI that's not Wireshark or Ethereal? because apparently my card isn't supported
[02:46] <Starnestommy> mixter: which card is it?
[02:46] <mixter> anyone still have fingers left to type?
[02:46] <DrthHmstr> yo
[02:46] <BinaryFu> afallenhope: Is your card a windows card?
[02:46] <mixter> its a geforce go 7150m on a hp dv9000 laptop
[02:46] <bazhang> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#Installation_of_both_ATi_and_nVidia_Graphics_drivers mixter
[02:46] <Gr34t3st> Steve-cal: 128mb
[02:46] <dabbill> Is there a way to change the icon for XChat in the system tray ?
[02:46] <afallenhope> BinaryFu: it's broadcom running a b43 driver
[02:46] <mixter> lots of problems with this card
[02:46] <Gr34t3st> it's really cheap. That's why I'm using it to test ubuntu
 I made it a executable ,but seems it is not being read from my path am i missing a command
[02:47] <mixter> also i cant get my network card nor my wifi to work either
[02:47] <hisingh1> To all that love compiz-fusion (latest from git) :http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showpost.php?p=35679&postcount=2
[02:47] <hisingh1> To all that love compiz-fusion (latest from git) :   http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showpost.php?p=35679&postcount=2 (sorry for double post)
[02:47] <d4t4min3r> im searching synaptic and it doesnt have libdvdcss
[02:47] <pen> BinaryFu, you mean you want me to use dmix?
[02:47] <BinaryFu> afallenhope: You just trying for packet sniffing over a LAN or are we talking WAN here? Because, there's VERY few cards that WAN works on yet.
[02:48] <Starnestommy> d4t4min3r: you need the medibuntu repositories to install libdvdcss through the package manager
[02:48] <DemonicButthead> hisingh1 - as per that guide you posted... If you use GNOME:
[02:48] <DemonicButthead>        	Code: 	COMPIZREMOVE=”kde”
[02:48] <DemonicButthead> lol
[02:48] <afallenhope> BinaryFu:  WAN
[02:48] <BinaryFu> pen: ?
[02:48] <mixter> any idea Starnestommy?
[02:48] <Steve-cal> Gr34t3st: OK, I'm not even sure 128 MB is enough for Ubuntu--have you checked the ubuntu website for minimum system requirements?
[02:48] <BinaryFu> afallenhope: Yeah, best bet, find out which cards are supported, and go buy one.
[02:49] <Starnestommy> mixter: try bazhang's link
[02:49] <pen> BinaryFu, well, I don't quite get what you mean in your response
[02:49] <theFATMAN> hey, my fellow ubuntians
[02:49] <afallenhope> BinaryFu: I have a "supported card" I just don't like using USB prisms
[02:49] <d4t4min3r> Starnestommy: is that at http://packages.medibuntu.org
[02:49] <mixter> will that also work with compiz?
[02:49] <bazhang> Gr34t3st, best to up the ram or have a really slow system (if any); may also try fluxbuntu
[02:49] <Starnestommy> d4t4min3r: it is
[02:49] <d4t4min3r> what repo do i need to add
[02:49] <DrthHmstr> you tell me
[02:49] <BinaryFu> pen: I mean, I prefer ALSA for everything. It just plain works, gives me multi-sounds, etc...and isn't quirky or buggy, and I don't have to tweak it, mod it, or alter it.
[02:49] <hisingh1> will a live cd work with wubi??
[02:50] <hisingh1> i try and it says disk not found
[02:50] <Starnestommy> d4t4min3r: follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[02:50] <theFATMAN> does anyone know a good 'x' format to dvd conversion programs?
[02:50] <BinaryFu> afallenhope: There's not a lot of GUI luv out there for packet sniffing...you named the two that are out there.
[02:50] <mixter> i love you guys
[02:50] <Gr34t3st> Steve-cal: Ok it says 256 mb is required
[02:50] <pen> BinaryFu, really? you mean pure alsa?
[02:50] <DemonicButthead> I have a problem with unpacking tar-balls.. can anyone help me out?
[02:50] <theFATMAN> 'x' being avi, xvid, etc., etc.
[02:50] <wishie> theFATMAN: ffmpeg :)
[02:50] <Starnestommy> DemonicButthead: what kind of problem is it?
[02:50] <pen> BinaryFu, I thought alsa mixing is only works with dmix
[02:51] <BinaryFu> pen: Well, as pure as ubuntu will let you without going, "Fine, remove that and I take the Desktop home with me...*pout*"
[02:51] <theFATMAN> wishie: so that will convert any to dvd?
[02:51] <pen> BinaryFu, is there any sideeffect?
[02:51] <Steve-cal> Gr34t3st: Well, that's your answere then. :) As bazhang mentioned while you were away, you should either up the RAM or maybe look at fluxbuntu.
[02:51] <wishie> theFATMAN: its cmd line, and complicated, but..sure
[02:51] <TMLer> can  someone plz help me install a gtk theme, it has no index.theme so I can't select it
[02:51] <DemonicButthead> Starnestommy- I go here.. http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showpost.php?p=35679&postcount=2 and download the http://personales.ya.com/telemako/makefusion.tar.gz tarball to my desktop
[02:51] <BinaryFu> pen: Yes...gotta be careful with this part, I do have to say there is one MAJOR side effect...
[02:51] <wishie> theFATMAN: for easy to use stuff, try ManDVD (i think it converts to, or might be FROM dvd)
[02:51] <theFATMAN> wishie: whoa, lol, i dont know that much cmd line yet
[02:51] <mixter> hmm cant find package, guess i need to download envyng-gtk
[02:51] <wobblywu> robdig, thanks a lot... googling that got me /.gnome2/session, which seems to do startup in 8.04
[02:51] <wobblywu> robdig, thanks :)
[02:51] <Starnestommy> DemonicButthead: cd ~/Desktop; tar xzf makefusion.tar.gz
[02:51] <DemonicButthead> STarnestommy- when i type the command they suggest using.. chmod +x makefusion in terminal.. it says no such file or directory
[02:51] <afallenhope> BinaryFu: would Ettercap work?
[02:52] <Gr34t3st> Steve-cal: What is fluxbuntu
[02:52] <bazhang> TMLer, just download the tar.gz, put in a folder then install via the gui in appearances
[02:52] <dabbill> Is there a way to change the icon for XChat in the system tray ?
[02:52] <BinaryFu> pen: You may get used to listening to more than one sound at a time on your computer, and you might actually consider it becoming your home ET center like I use mine...
[02:52] <hisingh1> Anyone a pro with IRC on TERMINAL?
[02:52] <wobblywu> robdig, uh.. /.config/autostart/ I mean
[02:52] <d4t4min3r> Starnestommy: what is the gpg key
[02:52] <afallenhope> hisingh1: what's the issue
[02:52] <black9ice> hmmm  I have everything working I need to work or want in i686, thinking of trying 64bit, I have 8gig lying on my desk begging for use, should I?  lol
[02:52] <robdig> wobblywu: cool
[02:52] <Starnestommy> d4t4min3r: install it with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update
[02:52] <TMLer> bazhang, i did that but in appearance - theme it doesn't show up
[02:52] <BinaryFu> afallenhope: Errrmmm...Hmmmm...now that I'm not sure about. I mean, technically it should...
[02:52] <wishie> theFATMAN: http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/11/20/create-video-dvds-with-mandvd/
[02:52] <mixter> ok now how do i get my network card to work
[02:52] <johnfg> hi folks
[02:52] <theFATMAN> wishie: thanks, i'm gonna check it out
[02:52] <d4t4min3r> Starnestommy: ??
[02:52] <pen> BinaryFu, how is that counted as a side effect? soumd mixing is a must
[02:53] <afallenhope> BinaryFu:  I don't see the "packet sniffing" part though
[02:53] <d4t4min3r> Starnestommy: what do i need to do
[02:53] <Starnestommy> d4t4min3r: that command
[02:53] <Starnestommy> d4t4min3r: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update
[02:53] <fyodordost> edit
 i want to run irc from SSh but dont know how
[02:53] <BinaryFu> pen: Well, I didn't say it was a BAD side effect... :D
[02:53] <danonura> i'm locked out of computer after hardy upgrade. it prompts for admin pwd twice, but 2nd prompts disappears in 1.5 seconds & all i can do is look at desktop
[02:53] <Steve-cal> Gr34t3st: It's just a lighter weight Ubuntu. See fluxbuntu.org for details about it.
[02:53] <afallenhope> hisingh1: download irsii or Bitch-X
[02:53] <Starnestommy> hisingh1: irssi with screen works great with ssh
[02:53] <pen> BinaryFu, cool
[02:53] <johnfg> I downloaded and burned the iso for the i386 server, and verified both the sums on the iso and the disk.  However, when I try to boot it, i get an error saying i have the wrong system/cpu.
[02:53] <cdsmithu1> I just upgraded to Hardy Heron, and now my sound doesn't work.  Any ideas?
[02:53] <afallenhope> sudo apt-get irsii | sudo apt-get install Bitch-X
