[03:22] <pcfreak30> would require a network install
[03:22] <hitman1985> hey all, quick question how do i install an application from a couple of .xml and .mst files ? any idea (UBUNTU HARDY 8.04)
[03:22] <m1r> histo: but then i need be root to edit /home/user/www ?
[03:22] <pcfreak30> and be supported by the pc bios
[03:22] <RyanPrior> m1r: you shouldn't have to be root to edit something in /home
[03:22] <Terralthra> I still need help with a TI 1620 card reader
[03:22] <pcfreak30> m1r, sudo
[03:22] <Terralthra> if anyone has any ideas
[03:22] <m1r> ye, sry, sudo
[03:22] <histo> RyanPrior: but its a link to /var/www
[03:22] <jmichelsen_> is there a place in Xubuntu/Ubuntu to set "xset -dpms" at startup?
[03:23] <Terralthra> the how-to I linked earlier has a whole bunch of errors when I tried to make it
[03:23] <Saladin> m1r: Are you talking about Apache?
[03:23] <m1r> Saladin: no , ubuntu
[03:23] <pcfreak30> any ideas bout my screen?
[03:23] <RyanPrior> histo: That sounds silly.
[03:23] <pcfreak30> anyone?
[03:23] <histo> Saladin: yeah he wants  a remote www directory that is transparent to apache. ex: /home/m1r/www would lik to /var/www
[03:23] <Saladin> m1r: Okay, was just you talking about the www folder.
[03:23] <mralexandro> patifa: to be honest i see no change, but at least i dont need to worry about the problem i guess
[03:23] <histo> RyanPrior: why.
[03:23] <RyanPrior> !patience | pcfreak30
[03:23] <pcfreak30> understood
[03:24] <m1r> Saladin: symlink from user folder to www folder
[03:24] <Saladin> m1r: Why?
[03:24] <pcfreak30> read the conduct
[03:24] <luks_> xfce4 has problems accessing /home/user/Desktop it says its not a folder... i got it installed in spanish... any ideas??? how do i solve the enoying box pumping all times i login..!
[03:24] <m1r> Saladin: so user can edit files in his docs
[03:24] <RyanPrior> histo: Why do you link /home/user/www to /var/www?
[03:24] <m1r> Saladin: and have them published online same time
[03:24] <Whiz_2> ok i think ubuntu has lost it's mind
[03:24] <histo> m1r: the proper solution would be to add the user to the www group. and just have him edit /var/www files
[03:24] <histo> RyanPrior: because he wants to do that.
[03:25] <electrofreak> does anyone have any advice to fixing issues with standby and/or hibernation?
[03:25] <Saladin> m1r: Use sudo nautilus /var/www to open up the folder in root mode and then just allow that user the correct permissions.
[03:25] <RyanPrior> Saladin: sudo nautilus sounds like a recipe for disaster
[03:25] <histo> Saladin: but I don't believe he wants to do that.
[03:25] <rocky> hm, i'm looking around for a socks client cmd-line tool (like tsocks) that will allow me to provide the socks server on a per cmd basis ... does something like that exist?
[03:25] <histo> !gksu | Saladin
[03:25] <Whiz_2> on my server install (alternate) CD i started the installation, and during install it says that no common CD-ROM drive was detected... but it's booted the install from CD... what sense does that make?
[03:25] <Sanketsu> RyanPrior: Ok, it did  15 out of 312 and then hangs.  I hit ctrl-c in terminal to kill the process and tried it again and got no new files in "DS Formatted".
[03:25] <m1r> histo , RyanPrior , Saladin , i just want symlink from user folder to var/www, so user can edit his files in his folder without worry for any permisions or problems
[03:26] <RyanPrior> Saladin: A) you should use gksudo for graphical apps, B) Nautilus as root?!
[03:26] <Saladin> RyanPrior: I did it for changing the sudoers file.
[03:26] <histo> m1r: You are still going to run in to permission problems you are trying to edit something outside of the users home.
[03:26] <mralexandro> when i try to mount my external harddrive i get an error message saying "unable to mount the volume "My Book"
[03:26] <zachb> histo: any ideas?
[03:26] <zachb> histo: any ideas?
[03:26] <m1r> histo: i shouldnt have problems as iit is symlink ? no ?
[03:26] <RyanPrior> Sanketsu: that sucks. Is there a particularly large file that it's hanging on, perhaps?
[03:27] <bastid_raZor> mralexandro; don't use a space in the mountpoint
[03:27] <histo> m1r: they would still need permissions to the target.
[03:27] <histo> m1r: which is /var/www
[03:27] <RyanPrior> !worksforme | Saladin
[03:27] <mralexandro> bastid_raZor: all i did was plug in the usb
[03:27] <Whiz_2> Any ideas on why ubuntu server is telling me it doesn't detect a CD-ROM drive when it's booted from one?
[03:27] <m1r> histo: chmod o+rx ~/www ?
[03:28] <Sanketsu> RyanPrior: I'm not seeing one, and the ones that it has done are rather...  randomly selected from the folder, it's not in order at all.
[03:28] <_spm_Draget> Is it normal that I always get the warning that all my packages I install are untrusty versions?
[03:28] <Saladin> Sorry RyanPrior; was the advice I was given
[03:28] <linuxfce> A program I'm trying to install requires GTK+-2.14, there is no GTK+-2.14!!!
[03:28] <bastid_raZor> mralexandro; where is it trying to mount it?
[03:28] <mooms> mralexandro:can you se it when you run sudo fdisk -l ?
[03:28] <RyanPrior> Saladin: I would have protested if I saw you being given that advice. Now you know better, and can join me in protest. :-)
[03:28] <mralexandro> let me check
[03:28] <histo> m1r: hodl on a sec
[03:28] <bastid_raZor> mralexandro; what does dmesg | tail give you? pastebinit please
[03:29] <linuxfce> Even unstable only goes to 2.13
[03:29] <m1r> histo: ok
[03:29] <histo> m1r: yeah either way you need to make the user part of the proper group
[03:29] <RyanPrior> Sanketsu: Well, perhaps try doing them one by one then. Unfortunately, I don't have any solution that I think is particularly likely to work.
[03:29] <zachb> Is there some way that I can do a fresh install from within ubuntu wo/ burning another disk?
[03:30] <RyanPrior> Sanketsu: Finding the problem would probably take more time than I have this evening.
[03:30] <Whiz_2> Any ideas on why ubuntu server is telling me it doesn't detect a CD-ROM drive when it's booted from one for installation?
[03:30] <Sanketsu> RyanPrior:  Ok then, no worries mate, thanks for all the help!!  *^_^*
[03:30] <mralexandro> i think it is this one cause it is the only one i have with 500 gb: Disk /dev/sdb: 500.1 GB,<PHONE_NUMBER>16 bytes
[03:30] <histo> m1r: let me check something
[03:30] <user01> anto9us, did you blacklist ipw2200 before installing ndiswrapper?
[03:30] <m1r> histo: ok

[03:31] <sk33t0r> whats the best program for linux to setup a proxy to connect to irc?
[03:31] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: this is during the installation. it's already started detecting hardware, and it is running from the CD yet telling me it can't detect any common CD-ROM drives (the only one it has is the one it's running from)
[03:31] <_spm_Draget> Every package I install is in an untrusty version o.o

[03:32] <pcfreak30> when i ran slackware
[03:32] <LamerC> Hello all.  I can use hdparam to control write caching to hard disks.  Can I do something similar for removable disks? I wan't to disable the caching for usb drives.
[03:32] <ShdwShinobi> danopia_, it's a sceptre... wouldn't surprise me somehow
[03:32] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: I dunno anything at all about slackware so that doesn't help me
[03:32] <bastid_raZor> mralexandro; sorry.. my wife calls.. i'm out
[03:32] <pcfreak30> it tried to detect the cd-rom, and sometimes couldnt. During istallation
[03:33] <sk33t0r> Ive seen ezbounce, muh and bnc
[03:33] <sk33t0r> whats the best?
[03:33] <danopia_> ShdwShinobi, in the config you shuold be able to select monitor drivers
[03:33] <pcfreak30> well slackware is same as ubuntu, except gui ant enabled by dfault
[03:33] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: will it cause a problem if I install it like this, or should I keep trying until it sees it?
[03:33] <pcfreak30> nd root ant protected
[03:33] <ShdwShinobi> danopia_, in the nvidia-settings window?
[03:33] <pcfreak30> try
[03:33] <danopia_> ShdwShinobi, yea

[03:34] <ShdwShinobi> danopia_, not seeing where
[03:34] <danopia_> ShdwShinobi, second
[03:34] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: no need to shut it down... it's not liveCD
[03:34] <pcfreak30> haardware may be a prob, but prob not the case. cause linux supports all hardware usually

[03:45] <mavsman4457> talk about wireless
[03:45] <dumples> does anyone know a good windows channel or would mind helping me even though its unrelated?
[03:45] <kitche> amenado: kinda off topic but looks just like a supped up power over ethernet sorta
[03:45] <kitche> dumples: ##windows
[03:45] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: That's why it's a good idea to put a name in front of what you're saying so people know who you are talking to (like i did)
[03:46] <dumples> thanks
[03:46] <jambooda> does anyone know how to install a package without some of its dependencies
[03:46] <mavsman4457> dumples you can ask here and go there too
[03:46] <amenado> kitche  am ready to be beamed up..skotty :P
[03:46] <jigp>  pcfreak30 yes but after 30 minutes it will gone...how to see the icons in my desktop?when i plug my usb flash drive before it will show the icon in desktop.now there is no icon anymore....done with alt f2 compiz and metacity but same thing....
[03:46] <jambooda> i want to install openoffice base but it wants to install some java stuff
[03:46] <jambooda> i already have my own version of java installed that I odn't wnat to overwrite
[03:46] <mavsman4457> jambooda install the dependecies first?
[03:46] <Whiz_2> jambooda: when you install a package, it normally installs the dependancies with it automatically as far as I know
[03:46] <mralexandro> pcfreak30: ah ok thanks:) so i go in windows and disable usb hardrive in advanced settings under my computer or something then?
[03:46] <ShdwShinobi> danopia_ any luck?
[03:46] <dumples> Ok, would I be able to use an old sony vaio's install discs to reinstall windows xp on my compaq presario?
[03:46] <kitche> amenado: go to #ubuntu-offtopic and we can talk there about it
[03:46] <jambooda> the problem is I dno't want the dependencies at all
[03:47] <jambooda> only some of them
[03:47] <danopia_> hi ShdwShinobi, no i can't find it
[03:47] <jambooda> not all
[03:47] <danopia_> but i saw it before
[03:47] <Terralthra> anyone free to help with the TI 1620 sd card reader?
[03:47] <amenado> kitche nah, one lil comment i had thats it..
[03:47] <pcfreak30> mralexandro: yea, but if u dont have windows.then i feel sry 4 u
[03:47] <pcfreak30> lol
[03:47] <danopia_> ShdwShinobi, switch the outputs on the card? :P
[03:47] <mavsman4457> jambooda why not? there is no problem in having them
[03:47] <jambooda> can i select which dependencies to isntall and which to leave off
[03:47] <Whiz_2> jambooda: if the package you want is dependant on those other packages, I don't think you will be able to install it without them
[03:47] <mralexandro> pcfreak30 i do have windows
[03:47] <pcfreak30> jambooda: not really
[03:47] <os2mac> anyone got any info on how to get an open source ID certificate?
[03:47] <jambooda> well when it installed it puts its version of java ahead of theone I already have installed
[03:47] <pcfreak30> dont know any way to trick the manager
[03:47] <croddy> Whiz_2, there is a way, actually, but it breaks more than it fixes
[03:48] <ShdwShinobi> danopia_, if it doesn't recognize the monitor... what good will it do?
[03:48] <ShdwShinobi> but i'll try it
[03:48] <adakos> howdy folks. I was wondering how I would go about setting up another network interface ( i have 3 NIC's installed, autoconfig took care of 1 during setup, how do I go about enabling the other 2 so i can use the server as a DHCP host/ firewall)
[03:48] <pcfreak30> even if u could u would prob mess up the package and it would not run
[03:48] <Whiz_2> croddy: then it's not recommended
[03:48] <danopia_> ShdwShinobi, see if it recognizes it in the other plug
[03:48] <croddy> agreed
[03:48] <m1r> histo , Saladin , RyanPrior , many many tnx for your help guys i got almost where i wanted with your help, it is working now.
[03:48] <danopia_> ShdwShinobi, are you using dual x displays or twinview
[03:49] <ShdwShinobi> twinview
[03:49] <pcfreak30> mralexandro: just saying/joking
[03:49] <Whiz_2> if ubuntu server won't detect the CD-ROM that it is installing from (odd i know) would it make sense to tell it to use /dev/cdrom or whatever the default usually is?
[03:49] <ShdwShinobi> bad idea switching
[03:49] <IsleVega1> my friend just got an ASUS M51TA-X2 with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 and when trying to boot the Ubuntu 8.04 cd he has no success with any of the options on the CD, such as safe graphics mode, try ubuntu without changing your computer, etc. Even the check CD for problems didn't work. They appear to start and then the video goes blank and nothing happens even after a long while.
[03:49] <danopia_> ShdwShinobi, me too
[03:49] <marco--> I'm trying to install build essential on a laptop that doesn't have access to the internet. I've tried apt-get from the ubuntu CD, without sucess. Is there a way other than downloading all the build-essencial dependencies separetly?

[03:50] <pcfreak30> mralexandro: no prob
[03:50] <adakos> vasilia : usually configs are under /etc/program_name/
[03:50] <vasilisa> adakos: thanks :)

[03:50] <adakos> vasilia: dont thank me yet, i could be wrong! :)
[03:50] <anto9us> jambooda, cross that bridge "if" you come to it, I don't think you will, you can have several java versions installed

[03:52] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: same issue. it won't detect the CD-ROM even tho it's booted from it. claims it may not be IDE or SCSI but it is an IDE Atapi CD-ROM
[03:52] <IdleOne> shiloh7, advice on?
[03:52] <shiloh7> question: i have a Dell inspiron 1100
[03:52] <etzerd> hello all
[03:52] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: keep trying
[03:53] <shiloh7> where can i read if there are drivers for the video
[03:53] <pcfreak30> if u have to use a diff kernal
[03:53] <electrofreak> can someone help me get standby and/or hibernation working on my system? I just installed ubuntu 8.04 on an abit AN8 nforce4 board.
[03:53] <vasilisa> *sigh*
[03:53] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: I'm only going to try so many times before I threow it out the window
[03:53] <mavsman4457> how do i uninstall songbird? i think i installed it with a .deb but I may have installed it with a script
[03:53] <SinisterBen> if add/remove programs freezes up when you try to download a network manager and also I can no longer get into samba even after a reboot what should i fo
[03:53] <SinisterBen> do*
[03:53] <pcfreak30> whiz_2:lol
[03:53] <RyanPrior> Sanketsu: I'm glad you found a way to make it work!
[03:53] <IdleOne> !hardware | shiloh7 take a look at the follwing link and see if your harware is supported
[03:53] <adakos> SinisterBen: try removing and reinstalling samba
[03:54] <SGB> Anyone know how to fix my partitions mount point,  I'm unable to access my windows drive it comes up with "mount_point unable to contain following characters: new line, G_DIR_SEPERATOR"
[03:54] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: try using a scsi compatible kernal
[03:54] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: my previous installation of kubuntu 6.06 LTS had absolutely no problems with the CD drive
[03:54] <SinisterBen> adakos Add/remove locks up whenever I try to do anything
[03:54] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: why? it's an IDE device
[03:54] <adakos> SinisterBen: try doing the old-fasioned way with terminal and sudo apt-get --purge remove samba
[03:54] <pcfreak30> wjiz_2: well the os doent know it
[03:54] <pcfreak30> lol
[03:54] <SinisterBen> ok thanks
[03:54] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: it is a standard cd-rom drive double speed
[03:55] <etzerd> guys, since yesterday I tried all the distro out there to see which one reconize my IBM ThinkPad T42 Wireless none of them. That's when I said let me try ubuntu, bengo my wireless connection work fine under ubuntu.
[03:55] <shiloh7> thank you very much :)
[03:55] <pcfreak30> is it usb or  built in
[03:55] <shiloh7> i love this distro so much i want it on my work pc
[03:55] <shiloh7> :-)
[03:55] <SGB> Anyone know how to fix my partitions mount point,  I'm unable to access my windows drive it comes up with "mount_point unable to contain following characters: new line, G_DIR_SEPERATOR"
[03:55] <SGB> Anyone?
[03:55] <RyanPrior> etzerd: I'm glad it worked out!
[03:55] <etzerd> me to shiloh7
[03:56] <adakos> SGB: I dont know if this will help, but try reinstalling NTFS-3g, or check to make sure there are no illegal charcters in the drive name
[03:56] <pcfreak30> sgb, try deconnecting it from the usb list in windows,then try to use it in linux
[03:56] <pcfreak30> but that might not be ur prob
[03:57] <pcfreak30> cause u wernt clear enough 4 me
[03:57] <etzerd> RyanPrior, I tried them all. From Suse to Fedora, none of them work with the wireless that build in the laptop
[03:57] <RyanPrior> !u | pcfreak30
[03:57] <SGB> Its my actual HDD,  when I try to load it up in ubuntu I get the unable to mount volume error...
[03:57] <Omar87> How do I safely upgrade to Intrepid Ibex?
[03:57] <pcfreak30> wbottu: well i am a bad typer
[03:58] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: could it be the fact that my BIOS sees it as an ATAPI CDROM device?
[03:58] <anto9us> Omar87, it isn't safe for use on production machines yet
[03:58] <electrofreak> can someone help me get standby and/or hibernation working on my system? I just installed ubuntu 8.04 on an abit AN8 nforce4 board. Could the software raid0 have anything to do with them not working??
[03:58] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: good idea
[03:58] <pcfreak30> check ur bios settings and make sure they are correct
[03:58] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: they are.
[03:58] <RyanPrior> etzerd: distros like Ubuntu, Mepis, and Knoppix work very hard for out-of-the-box hardware support, and though we've still got a long way to go, we're proud of the wide array of stuff that works without any extra fiddling.
[03:58] <Omar87> anto9us, I'm not on a production machine, that's my own laptop... at home.
[03:59] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: uh, maby try doconnecting it physically boot up
[03:59] <pcfreak30> thrn reconnect it?
[03:59] <pcfreak30> not sure
[03:59] <pcfreak30> just throwing stuff out
[03:59] <Terralthra> Speaking of out of the box working with hardware...
[03:59] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: now why would that make a difference? it boots from it
[04:00] <pcfreak30> i dont know
[04:00] <anto9us> Omar87, my point is, it's not yet ready to be "safely upgraded"
[04:00] <pcfreak30> judt trying to think
[04:00] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: maybe I should just try telling ubuntu it is /dev/cdrom?
[04:00] <adakos> omar87: Intrep. Ibex isn't ready for the public yet, it's still in testing phase
[04:01] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: that could work
[04:01] <RyanPrior> !intrepid | Omar87
[04:01] <pcfreak30> couldnt hurt
[04:01] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: this is a hd right
[04:01] <Omar87> adakos, yeah, I know, but I did upgrade to Hardy Heron when it was Alpha 4.
[04:02] <jmichelsen_>  anyone know the modprobe command for a Airgo Networks Inc AGN100 card?
[04:02] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: no it's not a hard drive. it is a CD-ROM drive
[04:02] <Omar87> adakos, and I'm thinking of doing the same with Intrepid Ibex.
[04:02] <Ben511> Hi all, can anyone recommend a gigabit NIC which works without any tweaks at gigabit speed?!!!
[04:02] <RyanPrior> Omar87: Thank you for being a brave pioneer and alpha tester. However, once you upgrade, you shouldn't look in #ubuntu for support - #ubuntu+1 is your channel now, until October.
[04:02] <shiloh7> etzerd, i was die hard fedora 8, that died on an update, critical kernel
[04:03] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: can u boot from a usb stick?
[04:03] <shiloh7> loaded fed 9, same thing last week
[04:03] <Omar87> RyanPrior, :-)
[04:03] <pcfreak30> does ur bios support it
[04:03] <shiloh7> this is a work of art :)
[04:03] <pcfreak30> mine does
[04:03] <Omar87> RyanPrior, I didn't upgrade yet, I'm just planning to do so.
[04:03] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: if you have a usb stick try that
[04:03] <linuxfce> I am desperately trying to disable, or change delay of, gnome tooltips
[04:03] <RyanPrior> Omar87: Ah. My comment is slightly premature then. :-)
[04:04] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: no and even if I could, it doesn't matter cuz I don't have one anyway
[04:04] <Omar87> RyanPrior, :)
[04:04] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: k, just checking
[04:04] <Ben511> Can anyone recommend a gigabit NIC which works without any tweaks at gigabit speed?!
[04:05] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: wait
[04:05] <pcfreak30> i have an idea
[04:05] <Whiz_2> yes?
[04:05] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: does ubuntu support network install
[04:05] <RyanPrior> Is there a performance testing / bottleneck assessing suite for Ubuntu similar to Vista's "performance information" view?
[04:05] <pcfreak30> like getting everything fromthe web
[04:05] <kitche> RyanPrior: yep
[04:05] <pyrak>  is there a command to check the physical sanity of a hard drive, as opposed to just the sanity of a particular partition?
 meaning, i know this drive has give me trouble in the past.  it seems to be working fine now.  if i reformat it, can i start trusting it again?
[04:05] <pcfreak30> i know debian does
[04:06] <magic_ninja> are there any good utilities out there (aside from dd) to move this 12 gb windows partition to my new hard drive?
[04:06] <Gillpy> !info netselect
[04:06] <Whiz_2> says it does, but I dunno how to do it on a system that needs drivers to access the network (NO OS is installed anymore)
[04:06] <magic_ninja> i want to basically copy the install over
[04:06] <pcfreak30> whiz_2: if it does then run
[04:06] <pcfreak30> a copyof it on cd
[04:06] <pcfreak30> and it will download everything
[04:06] <ShdwShinobi> can someone help me acheive the proper screen resolution for one of my monitors on a 8600GT?
[04:06] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: I'm running an alternate CD with no LiveCD
[04:07] <kitche> RyanPrior: hardinfo is one
[04:07] <deepak> linux or windows ?
[04:07] <RyanPrior> apt://hardinfo
[04:07] <RyanPrior> Hmm, my irc client doesn't like apt links.
[04:08] <mralexandro> pcfreak30: it worked!:)
[04:08] <jahnkeanater> i need help with mysql
[04:08] <jahnkeanater> http://www.php-login-script.com/
[04:08] <jahnkeanater> im trying to get this working
[04:08] <DareDevil> I need a software to see wich of my lan computers is generating spam
[04:08] <kitche> RyanPrior: sudo apt-get install hardinfo
[04:08] <DareDevil> kitche, are you talking with me?
[04:08] <anto9us> DareDevil, nmap will list computers, ports and services running on the network
[04:08] <pyrak> how can i check this external hard drive for damage?
[04:09] <pcfreak30> jahnkeanater: ur in luck
[04:09] <RyanPrior> kitche: I know. :-) However, hardinfo is not sufficiently comprehensive. Any other ideas?
[04:09] <jahnkeanater> when it tells me to Copy the following SQL to create a table and structure what do i do to do that
[04:09] <jahnkeanater> ok
[04:09] <pcfreak30> i am a full blown phpprogrammer
[04:09] <DareDevil> anto9us, thank you very much
[04:09] <kitche> DareDevil: umm no is your name RyanPrior :)
[04:09] <jahnkeanater> k
[04:09] <jahnkeanater> how do i do that
[04:09] <pcfreak30> u have a web host
[04:09] <kitche> RyanPrior: well look up a better one then just look up system profiler in synaptic and such
[04:09] <pyrak> also, what format do you recommend using for an external (used just for backups/extra storage)
[04:09] <dispraekailo> Might anyone here have experience with rt2500 in feisty?
[04:09] <pcfreak30> oh
[04:09] <DareDevil> you are rigth sorry kitche
[04:09] <pcfreak30> nvm
[04:10] <jahnkeanater> what
[04:10] <DareDevil> does nmap have graphique interface?'
[04:10] <jahnkeanater> the php is already done i need to do the mysql part
[04:10] <maxi_> hola
[04:10] <Ben511> Can anyone recommend a gigabit NIC which works without any tweaks at gigabit speed?!
[04:10] <deepak> how do i free up resources and processes so i can run a command and install something from terminal ?
[04:11] <isiah> pkill will end process
[04:11] <IdleOne> deepak, you should not need to kill processes to install something
[04:11] <isiah> so if you type in "pkill firefox" it will end firefox
[04:11] <DareDevil> anto9us, does it have graphique interface??
[04:11] <dispraekailo> Nice, duplicate entry for freenode listed as 'Ubuntu Servers' from default install ;[
[04:11] <mralexandro> is it possible to mount my memory stick reader in linux?
[04:11] <isiah> yes
[04:12] <kitche> mralexandro: if linux sees your memory reader
[04:12] <deepak> ok, so bad to kill processes to install something...noted
[04:12] <anto9us> DareDevil, no, use it like this, nmap <IP_ADDRESS>/24 or perhaps nmap <IP_ADDRESS>/24 depending on your network numbering
[04:12] <Appl3Kork> I need some help with installing like apps or emulators on ubuntu
[04:12] <Appl3Kork> I can't get the commands "make" and "make install" working
[04:12] <gregbrady> I just installed Ubuntu via Wubi on my laptop and I'm wondering how to tell if I'm running the 32bit or the 64bit version?
[04:12] <IdleOne> deepak, not it is not neccesarily bad just i don't understand why you would want to do that or need to
[04:12] <DareDevil> anto9us, thank you
[04:12] <isiah> try using the program nice
[04:12] <mralexandro> kitche: do you have a command i can type in terminal to see if linux does in fact detect my memory reader?
[04:13] <isiah> deepak: use nice
[04:13] <kitche> mralexandro: look at dmesg to see if linux sees it
[04:13] <bobertdos> Appl3Kork: Install build-essential
[04:13] <Appl3Kork> I did already
[04:13] <deepak> ok, will try another way
[04:13] <Appl3Kork> cause I was trying to install a game, and the ./configure would fail
[04:13] <kevin_> et
[04:14] <deepak> ok, heres one, how do i know that my display drivers are installed?
[04:14] <deepak> or drivers for all my hardware for that matter?
[04:14] <bobertdos> Appl3Kork: Take note of the dependencies causing it to fail. You will need to install any dependencies the configure script demands before proceeding any further.
[04:15] <Appl3Kork> how do I check the dependencies?
[04:15] <IdleOne> Appl3Kork, what are you trying to install?
[04:15] <mralexandro> kitche: alot of text....
[04:15] <Appl3Kork> Well first I was trying to install xmoto, but it didn't work for configure
[04:15] <Appl3Kork> now I'm just trying to install tuxnes
[04:15] <BeepII> ok, I just got a NVidia e-GeForce FX 5200 graphics card
[04:16] <IdleOne> Appl3Kork, sudo apt-get install xmoto
[04:16] <BeepII> and a notification came up when I turned my computer on about drivers from the restricted set.
[04:16] <bobertdos> Appl3Kork: Just watch the output of the script for errors about missing dependencies.
[04:16] <Whiz_2> pcfreak30: looks like my problem is a common one with this latest release of ubuntu! https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdrom-detect/+bug/195614
[04:16] <BeepII> .... and it said something about them not being free...
[04:16] <BeepII> did I understand that right?
[04:16] <BeepII> :)
[04:16] <IdleOne> Appl3Kork, always search in Synaptic or use apt-cache search package-name to see if it is available in repos
[04:16] <Appl3Kork> ok
[04:17] <anto9us> BeepII, they're not free as in speech, they're free as in beer
[04:17] <kitche> mralexandro: yep you kinda have to dig though that text to see if it's detected or not
[04:17] <BeepII> ok, so I don't have to pay for them
[04:17] <unavailable> i need libexpat.so.0
[04:17] <IdleOne> Appl3Kork, what errors are you getting for tuxnes?
[04:18] <anto9us> BeepII, not in cash, no, just in freedom :)
[04:18] <BeepII> anto9us: well, I'll worry about the freedom when I can actually understand source code. =P
[04:18] <BeepII> thanks
[04:18] <IdleOne> BeepII, you dont have to pay for them but you are not allowed to give them away either or modify them and ubuntu does not support them if they don't work but yeah you can use them
[04:19] <Appl3Kork> it says this

[04:21] <pwnedulongtime> why have there been no updates for Hardy for a few days?
[04:21] <Whiz_2> anyone know if it is possible to load MS-DOS CD-ROM drivers such as mscdex.exe for mounting my CD-ROM drive since 8.04 LTS obviously doesn't detect it? (all older versions detected the drive perfectly fine so someone screwed something up in this release)
[04:21] <IdleOne> pwnedulongtime, nothing to update perhaps or none available
[04:21] <IdleOne> Appl3Kork, i have no idea what that error means
[04:21] <pwnedulongtime> weird....usuelly something every day
[04:21] <Appl3Kork> hmm
[04:22] <maxi_> ee
[04:22] <bobertdos> pwnedulongtime: Nah, not every day. Believe it or not, sometimes a distro does reach a period of everything being "good enoug"
[04:22] <linuxfce> The is rather program specific, so I'm not really expecting answer, but.. Is there a way to set a custom, or higher resolution in flashcam?
[04:22] <unavailable> pwnedulongtime ive had updates every day...
[04:22] <unavailable> i need libexpat.so.0
[04:23] <anto9us> Whiz_2, are you sure it's not detected? Try sudo lshw | grep cd
[04:23] <pwnedulongtime> unavailable: today?
[04:23] <Whiz_2> anto9us: it tells me that it is not detected right here on my screen
[04:23] <unavailable> yep kernel, headers, and nvidia drivers
[04:23] <Whiz_2> anto9us: during installation no less
[04:23] <IdleOne> Appl3Kork, there are plenty of NES emulators in the repos search Synaptic
[04:23] <unavailable> pwnedulongtime: yep kernel, headers, and nvidia drivers
[04:23] <gregbrady> Where are the settings for compiz found?
[04:24] <mralexandro> kitche: found it ricoh mms

[04:24] <SinisterBen> any ideas?
[04:24] <anto9us> Whiz_2, have you checked the media for defects from the install menu?
[04:24] <iplaythisgame> !cssm
[04:24] <Whiz_2> anto9us: here look at this... this is exactly what I'm dealing with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdrom-detect/+bug/195614

[04:25] <iplaythisgame> !ccsm > gregbrady
[04:25] <kitche> mralexandro: probably will until a card is put in it
[04:26] <mralexandro> i have put a card in
[04:26] <tritium> ikonia: rounding?
[04:26] <anto9us> Whiz_2, what about a netboot install?
[04:26] <Whiz_2> anto9us: even when i choose to check the cd for defects i get the saem message
[04:27] <Whiz_2> anto9us: my network is not designed for netbooting
[04:27] <anto9us> Whiz_2, you have a floppy drive?
[04:27] <Whiz_2> anto9us: why else would I ask about loading drivers such as mscdex.exe?
[04:28] <mralexandro> kitche: i think i found out what is wrong, the reader will not detect memory stick cards: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=760357
[04:28] <gregbrady> iplaythisgame:  thanks
[04:28] <anto9us> Whiz_2, sorry, I don't understand, what's your question exactly?
[04:29] <Whiz_2> anto9us: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdrom-detect/+bug/195614 <-- how do I solve this problem?
[04:29] <anto9us> Whiz_2, do you have a floppy drive?
[04:29] <Whiz_2> anto9us: we are going in circles
[04:30] <anto9us> Whiz_2, not if you answer the question
[04:30] <SurfnKid> hi
[04:30] <kitche> mralexandro: all I m not great with readers so it's probably a driver issue or something
[04:30] <SurfnKid> What is the best Wireless Express card out there for Ubuntu without all the FWcutting/NdisTortillaWrapping stuff, that can be easily configured or detected or moded??
[04:31] <kitche> SurfnKid: probably Intel but you still need to get the firmware
[04:31] <Whiz_2> anto9us: yes I have a floppy
[04:32] <Whiz_2> anto9us: why else would I ask about loading drivers such as mscdex.exe?
[04:32] <anto9us> Whiz_2, then you can boot of that for a network install
[04:32] <SurfnKid> kitche: I've been on Dapper/Edgy/Fiesty and now Im on Hoary and the Broadcomm 4306 is not installing well due to the new b43 and b43legacy drivers
[04:32] <anto9us> !netboot | Whiz_2
[04:32] <andresj> hey wanna play Spring? spring.clan-sy.com why am i saying this? cuz at this time there's not a lot of people :P
[04:33] <mralexandro> kitche: but thanks alot anyway!:)
[04:33] <SurfnKid> kitche: I could just get that card and get rid of that problem, and forget assistance from the bcm-users group. since no one seems to be helping
[04:33] <Whiz_2> anto9us: that has nothing to do with my problem
[04:33] <SurfnKid> kitche: what do you have
[04:33] <bozy> :>
[04:33] <anto9us> Whiz_2, I'd try it and see if it works after install
[04:34] <kitche> SurfnKid: a broadcom I don't use native drivers though since all drivers really for broadcom are bad
[04:34] <SurfnKid> but they work dont they?
[04:34] <SurfnKid> i used ndiswrapper all the time
[04:34] <anto9us> Whiz_2, or you could make a live USB stick if you have one
[04:35] <kitche> SurfnKid: yep work just drop connections alot
[04:35] <Whiz_2> anto9us: don't have one
[04:35] <SurfnKid> and never had any problems after, like now where the card isnt being detected after following all the instructions.
[04:35] <Ben511> Can anyone help with an RTL8169 NIC performing very very slow?
[04:35] <Whiz_2> anto9us: this is not a liveCD installation anyway. it is an alternate CD for a server
[04:36] <mralexandro> when i try to print it says printer is sleeping:) what should i do
[04:36] <anto9us> Whiz_2, then I recommend a bootable floppy for a network install
[04:36] <fauzie> can anybody tell me where ubuntu stores downloaded packages?
[04:36] <Whiz_2> anto: you don't get it... it is *booting* from the CD
[04:36] <SurfnKid> kitche: im using a usb wifi linksys stick, and once its connected, the Broadcomm 4306 is seen by the system... although it doesnt detect anything... and once I unplug the usb stick,... that stick PLUS the Broadcomm are gone from the system, wlan0 which is the BC card, shows up with iwconfig, but ifconfig says device doesnt exist

[04:37] <unavailable> ok guys. i compiled gyachE / py! voice, make install yah yah....  had to make a symbolic from libexpat.so.0 to libexpatso.1
[04:37] <unavailable> now
[04:37] <unavailable> when i run it its fine
[04:37] <P_Kable> Hi there, long time no see... One of my machine got something wrong
[04:37] <unavailable> except when i try voice
[04:37] <P_Kable> here is the pastebin
[04:37] <unavailable> i get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/39598/
[04:37] <anto9us> Whiz_2, my guess is that it may be a problem with the installer's kernel and not the finally installed kernel
[04:37] <P_Kable> http://pastebin.com/d512fec45
[04:38] <danhs> I just installed brand new wireless card intel 4965agn
[04:38] <danhs> but, ubuntu isn't detecting it
[04:38] <danhs> I guess it needs drivers setup
[04:38] <Reformer81> My internet connection has been incredibly slow all day (the web, downloading, apt, etc).  What steps should I take to find out why and fix it?
[04:39] <danhs> how do I do that?  I thought it'd be like plug n' play like windows
[04:39] <test34> If I play music and then start a game, I get no sound in the game.. which sound server should I use?
[04:40] <test34> Reformer81: what speed is your DSL
[04:40] <anto9us> Reformer81, if it's wireless then do iwconfig <device> and check what speed that is running at

[04:47] <hitman1985> how do i get the gfx driver in there the right way ?
[04:47] <unavailable> hitman1985: depends on your chipset
[04:47] <xaj> hi all, i'm pretty new too ubuntu but i have a quick question i'd like to ask: i've noticed that everytime i want to do something in ubuntu (play music, play videos) i have to download dependency after dependency after dependency.  is there anyway i can install these files from my copy of ubuntu cd? or must i download these drivers using apt-get?  it just seems to me that some of these programs should include the necessary files in order to play music/video
[04:47] <little> how can I traslade all my favorites pages from  other user section to my new one
[04:47] <little> ?
[04:47] <test34> Whiz_2: what is your Q again

[04:48] <Totakeke> Does anyone have any experience with UNetBootin
[04:48] <Whiz_2> test34: During install of ubuntu server (alternate CD) when booting from the CD it says it can't detect any common CD-ROM drives. I do not have any floppy disks I can use for a netboot, and I have no USB stick. this installation *must* be done from a CD
[04:48] <hitman1985> unavailable, but as far as i know i need the gfx installed for compiz right ?

[04:49] <little> me
[04:49] <unavailable> anto9us: i already did the link
[04:49] <floppyears> does radeon have better support than nvidia ?
[04:49] <test34> Whiz_2: did you try mounting the CD from the command line?
[04:49] <hitman1985> unavailable, any idea about compiz to install
[04:49] <unavailable> anto9us:   when i run it its fine ... except when i try voice i get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/39598/
[04:50] <Totakeke> I succesfully installed Linux to the flash drive, but when I boot it says, "Default, Try Linux, Install, etc. etc." What am I supposed to do after that? The website was no help and I couldnt' find anything about it on the internet.
[04:50] <drderek_> test34 - nah, didn't do anyhting
[04:50] <Whiz_2> test34: i would if it was listed in /dev but /dev/cdrom doesn't exist
[04:50] <drderek_> test34 - still a blinking cursor
[04:50] <drderek_> er, leme try running gdm now
[04:50] <test34> drderek_: did it tell you that it didnt kill any process?
[04:51] <gwd> ?
[04:51] <G3N0> Does anyone know how to use airodump?
[04:51] <hitman1985> floppyears, its user preference, cant say that in gerneral i d say
[04:51] <test34> Whiz_2: is it IDE ?
[04:51] <floppyears> thanks hitman1985
[04:51] <drderek_> test34 - it gave me a new line, so I'm assuming the process was killed.
[04:51] <gwd> my god ,how to use this
[04:51] <Whiz_2> test34: it's atapi according to my bios, but it is connected to a standard IDE interface
[04:51] <mwanderley> oi galera
[04:52] <test34> Whiz_2: try /dev/hdb, /dev/hdc, etc..
[04:52] <hitman1985> floppyears, i do prefer nvidia since the gaming support is better ie driver software of ati buggers up if u play steam games (did it for a bunch of my clan mates)
[04:52] <Whiz_2> test34: those are hard drives
[04:52] <hitman1985> i ll brb (restart)
[04:52] <floppyears> cool thanks hippu
[04:52] <test34> whiz, no
[04:52] <unavailable> ok guys. i compiled gyachE / py! voice, make install yah yah....  had to make a symbolic link from libexpat.so.0 to libexpat.so.1....    when i run it its fine ... except when i try voice i get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/39598/
[04:53] <Totakeke> I succesfully installed Linux to the flash drive using UNetBootin, but when I boot it says, "Default, Try Linux, Install, etc. etc." What am I supposed to do after that? The website was no help and I couldnt' find anything about it on the internet.
[04:53] <anto9us> Totakeke, is it booting again from the installation disk?
[04:53] <hitman1985> unavailable, do you know what the best themes are or some advice how to do themes in ubuntu (newbie)
[04:54] <unavailable> hitman1985: try emerald
[04:54] <Totakeke> Anto9us: No, I make sure it boots from the flash drive. Then it gives me the UNetBootin menu.
[04:54] <unavailable> hitman1985: and go to gnome-look for themes
[04:54] <jansen> pkill -9 X ??
[04:54] <jansen> How do i stop X ??? pkill -9 X ??
[04:55] <test34> drderek_: try init 3 ; init 5
[04:55] <anto9us> Totakeke, you need to make sure you select the device for grub to go to during the install process, it's easily missed in the process
[04:55] <Whiz_2> test34: nothing starting with hd shows in /dev either.
[04:55] <jansen> test34, how do i stop X to install nvidia driver?
[04:55] <unavailable> hitman1985: http://www.gnome-look.org/
[04:55] <G3N0> Has anyone every used airodump or kismet before?
[04:55] <Gnea> jansen: ctrl-alt-backspace
[04:55] <unavailable> hitman1985: and you may wish to try out screenlets
[04:55] <Gnea> jansen: or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:55] <jansen> gnea, how do i stop X when im control + alt + f1?
[04:55] <hitman1985> unavailable, i have that site
[04:55] <jansen> gnea.. i do that, but it says i already have an X prcoess running
[04:55] <hitman1985> unavailable, but i never figured out how to use that stuff :(
[04:55] <Gnea> jansen: killall -9 X
[04:56] <jansen> when i go to isntall nvidia driver
[04:56] <jansen> ty
[04:56] <greeg> hi
[04:56] <test34> jansen: why do you want to do this?
[04:56] <jansen> i need to isntall the gforce driver
[04:56] <greeg> is there a list of linux compatable nvidia cards ?
[04:56] <hitman1985> i can do wine and my day by day stuff fine (just reinstalled few mins ago) because i made a mistake installing wine
[04:56] <Gnea> test34: nvidia.ko probably won't unload until he does
[04:56] <hitman1985> so i had to redo everything
[04:56] <Totakeke> Anto9us: Okay, I made a little clerical error. I didn't completely isntall it, I get to the part where I have to reboot (after the UNetBootin thing finishes) and when I reboot, a text menu comes up saying "Default, Try Ubuntu, Install, etc. etc." I'm not sure what to do next. Default? Install?
[04:56] <jansen> i could do that on hardware fdrivers
[04:56] <Gnea> !nvidia | greeg
[04:56] <Whiz_2> test34: I'm looking at the /dev list. if you give me about 10-15 mins or so I can provide a paste of the entire /dev list as detected by the installer to get idea
[04:56] <unavailable> hitman1985: and Cairo-dock http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5578231&postcount=31
[04:57] <test34> Whiz_2: ls /etc/ > ~/list.etc
[04:57] <greeg> i know how to install drivers.
[04:57] <unavailable> hitman1985: well for emerald themes, you download the theme you want, open your emerald icon, and import the theme
[04:57] <greeg> i want to make sure the card is compatable with linux in the first place
[04:57] <Gnea> greeg: then you didn't fully read the site.
[04:57] <G3N0> Whats the best game compatible for linux?
[04:57] <anto9us> Totakeke, install, make sure you configure grub to install on your flash drive
[04:57] <hitman1985> unavailable, first i got to restart in one sec, for the gfx card to take the driver update, then i want the cube (compiz/ equal) and some cool animations what dont eat to much juice
[04:57] <Gnea> !best | G3N0
[04:58] <test34> G3N0: this is like asking what is the best linux distribution
[04:58] <unavailable> hitman1985: you may wish to know that the new compiz has sphere cube
[04:58] <G3N0> D:
[04:58] <G3N0> cant i just get a simple answer
[04:58] <IdleOne> test34, that would be gentoo correct?
[04:58] <hitman1985> unavailable, sphere ?
[04:58] <unavailable> yep
[04:58] <Whiz_2> test34: what am I supposed to do with that once it's output? I can't get it anywhere you can see it that way, cuz the computer has no network access
[04:58] <hitman1985> unavailable, (german/american) here not toooo good in english but almost 90%
[04:58] <unavailable> hitman1985: globe
[04:59] <greeg> are all geforce compatable with linux?  im looking for a PCI card
[04:59] <test34> IdleOne: if you say so;)
[04:59] <hitman1985> unavailable, looks bad or good ? :) what u think
[04:59] <test34> Whiz_2: dcc send to me
[04:59] <unavailable> hitman1985: i love it
[04:59] <hitman1985> unavailable, screenshot available ?
[04:59] <Gnea> greeg: no, seriously, visit that link and click on the nvidia section - there's a link to a list of compatible cards there.
[04:59] <hitman1985> unavailable, i had this one :
[04:59] <Whiz_2> test34: I can't paste it!
[04:59] <Totakeke> Anto9us: Shouldn't it do it for me? I'm using an application that installs Linux onto the drive for me.
[04:59] <salmon> question. im trying to run WoW through wine. i have an older copy so i have had to download a whole mess of patches. well i'v downloaded and installed about 5 patches now and i get to this last one and i keep getting an error message when i try to open the game. the whole thing locks up and i have to force quit the whole thing. anyone know or have experienced this??
[04:59] <greeg> ok
[04:59] <unavailable> hitman1985: hold on one sec, lemmie get it
[04:59] <Whiz_2> test34: i have to write it out manually
[05:00] <test34> Whiz_2: you should learn to cut and paste before using linux
[05:00] <cwill747> salmon: visit #winehq
[05:00] <hitman1985> unavailable, ohhhh i also need help with flash and sound in it :) if you know that much
[05:00] <IdleOne> test34, guessing it is on another machine without internet
[05:00] <Whiz_2> test34: i can not open a terminal window. i'm running straight ona command line
[05:00] <Whiz_2> test34: pay attention please
[05:00] <salmon> #winehq
[05:00] <unavailable> hitman1985: not too good at flash, nor sound, just the eye candy :)
[05:00] <IdleOne> salmon, /join #winehq
[05:01] <anto9us> Totakeke, the ubuntu installer defaults to putting grub on the first HD, you have to tell it specifically where to put it if you want it elsewhere
[05:01] <test34> Whiz_2: it is 30$/hr for me to pay attention
[05:01] <jcarter>  Why can´t any of my applications, aside from the browser, show an icon for Network Servers for open/save operations? I´m using Ubuntu Desktop 8.0.4 in VMWare on a Mac OS X 10.5.4
[05:01] <R_YoYo_R> 30$ an hours is cheap too
[05:01] <hitman1985> unavailable, ok i guess if u got some time it would be nice to get that eye candy goin for this machine and i ll get the sound and flash figured our myself ?
[05:01] <greeg> Gnea: i scrolled all the way down.  i dont see a list
[05:01] <greeg> nor do i see a link pointing to a list
[05:01] <ajhtiredwolf> Lets start it loading
[05:01] <test34> Whiz_2: copy on CD or floppy or get creative to save some time
[05:01] <greeg> why dont you just give me the link to the list
[05:01] <G3N0> jcarter: boo just overwrite your mac installation with unbuntu :)
[05:02]  * cwill747 agrees with G3N0
[05:02] <hitman1985> unavailable, http://hitman1985.com/gallery/album05
[05:02] <hitman1985> thats the cube i had
[05:02] <Gnea> greeg: because you ought to know how to read if you want to use a real OS.
[05:02] <unavailable> hitman1985: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5558229&postcount=23
[05:02] <hitman1985> unacompiz sorry :)
[05:02] <Whiz_2> test34: no network access of any kind, running without LiveCD (command line installation only), no working floppy disks, nor can it mount the floppy for some reason, no way to get it to you except typing it out manually
[05:02] <unavailable> hitman1985: you may need to login or sign up for that to see my screenies
[05:02] <hitman1985> im on there :)
[05:02] <greeg> ugh... reading
[05:02] <hitman1985> registered my friend :)
[05:03] <nalioth> when you're running a web server with dyndns pointing to it, do you have to have the hostname in your apache.conf or anywhere like that?
[05:03] <Totakeke> Anto9us: Oh, the boot loader towards the end of the install. Yeah, I know that, but the website makes it sound like there's some kind of installation process that starts up as soon as you restart (but before you can actually load up Linux from the flash drive.) I need to know how to get to the installer. (Unless I just do a normal install.)
[05:03] <IdleOne> greeg, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia
[05:03] <ivanm1> my mouse randomly stops moving for a few seconds, i f i stop hald it works ok. Is there any way to stop those random freezes without killing hald?
[05:03] <test34> Whiz_2: do whatever you have to do.. and paste it somewhere when you are done
[05:03] <greeg> THANK YOU
[05:03] <anto9us> Totakeke, don't really know about that, just the little 'gotcha' that I pointed out
[05:03] <Totakeke> Anto9us: I guess I'll just try a normal install frmo the UNetBootin menu after the restart. Should I put the boot loader on /dev/sdd or /dev/sdd1 (or sdd2, etc.)?
[05:03] <greeg> Gnea: you call ubuntu a real OS?  try slackware or gentoo.
[05:03] <hitman1985> unavailable, holy s.it
[05:03] <Leefmc> Question: How do you set a default "photo" application? Currently it seems to be F-Spot but i want it to be digiKam
[05:04] <unavailable> rofl
[05:04] <Gnea> greeg: i did, years ago.
[05:04] <G3N0> whats slackware?
[05:04] <Leefmc> painful
[05:04] <hitman1985> unavailable, think i can run that with this old pc :( ?
[05:04] <Leefmc> :)
[05:04] <anto9us> Totakeke, which ever you're configuring to boot from, i.e. whichever is the flash device
[05:04] <Gnea> greeg: along with freebsd and netbsd.
[05:04] <greeg> Gnea: the only reason im here is becuase no one else of 20 distros could provide what IdleOne provided
[05:04] <IdleOne> greeg, if you came here to talk smack about ubuntu you came to the wrong place. every distro has it's +'s and -'s
[05:04] <test34> Slackware can even deal with a corrupted partition table
[05:04] <unavailable> hitman1985: dunno whats your ram? processor?
[05:04] <jcarter> G3N0: I plan on doing that someday, but only when it comes time to shell out for an upgrade on the Mac.
[05:05] <linuxfce>  its depressing when google has nothing on every angle you go at it with, very depressing
[05:05] <Gnea> greeg: you know what? there's a reason there's a support structure in place.
[05:05] <Gnea> oh. heh.
[05:05] <zigzags> whats the name of the plugin to view .wmv's in web browsers.
[05:05] <Totakeke> Anto9us: But they're both the flash device. sdd is the flash drive, but there's sdd, sdd1, and I believe sdd2. I think those are the seperate partitions. Should I just do it to /dev/sdd (without any numbers)?
[05:05] <hitman1985> unavailable, 2.8 p4   2gb crucial and 5200 fx 128 mb
[05:05] <unavailable> oh yah
[05:05] <hitman1985> unavailable, it was free so i dont mind it :)
[05:05] <linuxfce> i would have thought a year later someone would have figured out how to do this
[05:05] <anto9us> Totakeke, yes
[05:05] <Sekure> !cloak
[05:06] <Totakeke> Anto9us: Okay, thanks for your help.
[05:06] <unavailable> dunno about the gfx card but I got a 2.2 athlon 64 (32 bit ubuntu) with 512 mb ram, and an onboard 6150 LE nvidia
[05:06] <unavailable> hit dunno about the gfx card but I got a 2.2 athlon 64 (32 bit ubuntu) with 512 mb ram, and an onboard 6150 LE nvidia
[05:07] <Theaxiom> How do I make a program automatically start in sudo?
[05:07] <BabyJesus666> Can Ubuntu be put on an external hard drive by any chance?
[05:07] <cwill747> BabyJesus666: yes, i have it on mine
[05:07] <unavailable> ok guys. i compiled gyachE / py! voice, make install yah yah....  had to make a symbolic link from libexpat.so.0 to libexpat.so.1....    when i run it its fine ... except when i try voice i get this http://paste.ubuntu.com/39598/
[05:07] <hitman1985> unavailable, i can read :) w/o my name on it but if u want i ll log into icq or pm or something to get my eye candy tweaked :) only if u dont mind!
[05:07] <hitman1985> unavailable, i dont feel like bothering ppl with my stuff : ) im greatfull for the help i get here
[05:08] <BabyJesus666> cwi11747: Would it depend on the brand and all that? I would imagine it does?
[05:08] <cwill747> BabyJesus666: nope, as long as it's a hard drive
[05:08] <linuxfce> unavailable i am miserably trying to install gyachi. did you get the error Possibly undefined macro  AM_PATH_GTK_2_0
[05:08] <cwill747> BabyJesus666: you can install ubuntu on any hard drive that's on your computer, if you partition it correctly
[05:08] <cwill747> !install | BabyJesus666
[05:08] <anto9us> Theaxiom, you can edit the launcher and put gksu in front of it, or use a menu editor (alacarte) to do the same for menu items
[05:09] <unavailable> linuxfce: nope,
[05:09] <linuxfce> darn
[05:09] <R_YoYo_R> when a new release of ubuntu comes out.... i will just be able to upgrade... correct?
[05:09] <cwill747> R_YoYo_R: yep
[05:09] <Theaxiom> anto9us: thanks
[05:09] <linuxfce> unavailable, any ideas on how to get past it?
[05:09] <unavailable> linuxfce: but im running gyachE not gyachI
[05:09] <BabyJesus666> cwi11747: Here's the big thing. Would it work to run Ubuntu on my external if my desktop is running Mac?
[05:09] <cwill747> R_YoYo_R: well, you're supposed to be able to do it. XD
[05:09] <linuxfce> oh, why so old?
[05:10] <cwill747> BabyJesus666: not at the same time... but you can dualboot your system
[05:10] <R_YoYo_R> cwill747, :) thanks. Im not afraid of reinstalls .... im just wondering if anyone out there has upgraded from upgrades
[05:10] <Leefmc> Question: Anyone know of KNotify problems? I often get, what appears to be, problems with knotify itself, any thoughts on this?
[05:10] <cwill747> !dualboot | BabyJesus666
[05:10] <unavailable> linuxfce: voice support
[05:10] <unavailable> linuxfce: with yahoo.
[05:10] <BabyJesus666> cwi11747: It's a PowerPC. I'd need to go back to Version 6 or so, wouldn't I?
[05:10] <G3N0> BabyJesus666: and if you're setting up a dual-boot from windows make sure you use pentagon partition magic to adjust your partitions, best software ever
[05:10] <zigzags> whats the name of the plugin to view .wmv's in web browsers.
[05:10] <cwill747> R_YoYo_R: yeah, but they are notorious for problems
[05:10] <unavailable> linuxfce: but alas, it doesnt seem to work
[05:10] <linuxfce> unavailable gyachi has that built in, along with photoshare. using pyvoicechat
[05:11] <lenovo_SUX> so i have this god-aweful lenovo brick to put ubuntu on, but the owners cant afford a decent card, so im stuck with a onboard  geforce 6100 that outputs 600x800 without  nv drivers and 640x480 with them. needless to say, this simply wont do for anyone in these times, much less a family wanting a linux gaming box. can anyone help me out here?
[05:11] <G3N0> BabyJesus666: paragon*
[05:11] <newclimb> hello
[05:11] <R_YoYo_R> cwill747, ok :) i feel safer with fresh installs anyway
[05:11] <linuxfce> no need to compile it really if thats what youre looking for
[05:11] <cwill747> !powerpc | BabyJesus666
[05:11] <wbmj> zigzag:mplayer-mozilla
[05:11] <tritium> lenovo_SUX: the 6100 can do better resolution than that
[05:11] <newclimb> do you know any solution do the chrome hc driver video
[05:11] <cwill747> R_YoYo_R: haha, it should work. The update manager updates when a new distro comes out "formally"
[05:12] <linuxfce> unavailable i use this and voice chat works fine http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?nlrmdlub4tv
[05:12] <tritium> cwill747: same distro, new release
[05:12] <lenovo_SUX> tritium: i know this,as should anyone else, but the ubuntu doesnt think so
[05:12] <jeffz> so, I ran sudo do-release-upgrade to upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04, my install has stopped with dpkg saying, too many errors giving up, assertion failed, segmentation fault blah blah, do I just run dpkg --configure -a?
[05:12] <cwill747> tritium: oh yeah, my b, it's midnight here XD
[05:12] <lenovo_SUX> tritium: the system is OKish
[05:12] <Theaxiom> anto9us: I did that to eclipse and it lost all its plugins?
[05:12] <cwill747> R_YoYo_R: yes, sorry, new release of the distro, not a different distro
[05:12] <tritium> lenovo_SUX: my 6150 can do 1080i on ubuntu
[05:13] <linuxfce> 1080 seems to perform better on ubuntu for me
[05:13] <lenovo_SUX> tritium: sempron 3400+ AM2, 512 ram and onboard geforce 6100 in the nvidia chipset
[05:13] <R_YoYo_R> cwill747, yea i know that :)
[05:13] <test34> G3N0: paragon partition manager doesnt seem like a good idea
[05:13] <tyoc> is ubuntu 8.4 able to read/write ntfs files???
[05:13] <tyoc> in an external USB HD?
[05:13] <tritium> lenovo_SUX: yes, you should be able to do better than that, especially with the nvidia-glx-new package
[05:13] <linuxfce> with ntfs-3g, i dont know if thats built in or not
[05:13] <pcfreak30> tyco: yes
[05:13] <Theaxiom> tyoc: yes
[05:13] <cernex> yo'!
[05:13] <cwill747> tyoc: yes, you can mount it with ntfs-3g
[05:13] <tyoc> thx Theaxiom
[05:13] <pcfreak30> my external hd is ntfs
[05:14] <cernex> a n00b here
[05:14] <cwill747> !hi | cernex
[05:14] <jeffz> anyone?
[05:14] <linuxfce> !hi linuxfce
[05:14] <tyoc> cwill747, looking forward to it, thx
[05:14] <R_YoYo_R> jeffz, i missed the question
[05:14] <anto9us> Theaxiom, I don't think you should run eclipse as root. I guess that happened because you're a different user and eclipse maps plugins to the user's home directory
[05:14] <lenovo_SUX> tritium: yet thats what it gave me. would a 64 bit install make a diffference? i only had a 32 bit 8.04 disk handy
[05:14] <cernex> I'm trying to open YasT
[05:14] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Then how can I have permission to edit files?
[05:14] <linuxfce> !hi | linuxfce
[05:14] <tritium> lenovo_SUX: no, it shouldn't
[05:14] <Theaxiom> anto9us: I am editing files outside my user directory
[05:15] <cernex> Because I'm stuck with a lousy D-Link wireless thing
[05:15] <jeffz> R_YoYo_R: I ran sudo do-release-upgrade to upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04, it downloaded installed mostly everything then postinst scripts started segfaulting, dpkg threw some assertions then said too many errors giving up
[05:15] <cwill747> tyoc: no problem
[05:15] <cernex> Right now I'm using a friend's cable connection
[05:15] <jeffz> R_YoYo_R: do I just run dpkg --configure -a?
[05:15] <cernex> But after that, I need to use this D-Link thing
[05:15] <pcfreak30> Theaxioum: use sudo gedit
[05:15] <anto9us> Theaxiom, add yourself to that group and add group permissions to those folders/files
[05:15] <pcfreak30> thren the file
[05:15] <R_YoYo_R> jeffz, is 6.06 to 8.04 even supported?
[05:15] <cernex> Found a tutorial to do so
[05:15] <jeffz> R_YoYo_R: both are long term thingos, so yes.
[05:15] <wbmj> jeffz:There are a great amount of diiferences between 6.06.and 8.04...better to do 7.04 then 8.04
[05:15] <cernex> But now I'm stuck because I just can't seem to either find YasT, let alone use it
[05:16] <cernex> And it's on one of the steps
[05:16] <jeffz> wbmj: why? it's supported to go from one long term release to another?
[05:16] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Add myself to what group? argh I am lost, but thanks for getting me on the right track. I want to have ownership of /var/www - how do I do that?
[05:16] <linuxfce> ok time to give up
[05:16] <mralexandro> can anyone explain how to install flight gear from a tar.gz file?
[05:16] <jeffz> wbmj: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#head-e059d5452a24b50d09c64df48058ef2d834eb197
[05:16] <lenovo_SUX> xritium: im in a 64 bit live cd and it defaulted to 1680x1050 on a old ast vision5l
[05:16] <anto9us> Theaxiom, to the group that the folders/files belong to
[05:16] <R_YoYo_R> jeffz, ahh good point. . . what is the error again?
[05:16] <linuxfce> i guess flashcam is ONLY able to run at the lowest resolution
[05:16] <sekyourbox> can someone whois me?
[05:16] <linuxfce> and i mean LOW
[05:16] <jeffz> R_YoYo_R: while it was trying to configure packages the configure scripts crashed, then dpkg crashed and gave up
[05:16] <linuxfce> postage stamp low
[05:16] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Can't I just add the folder to my group?  I'm having the issue that I recorded here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dD1vKrbYNvQ
[05:17] <lenovo_SUX> tritium: imeant that to you[this keyboard sucks]
[05:17] <cwill747> [00:16] sekyourbox<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:17] <jeffz> R_YoYo_R: I'm not sure that's wise, I think I'll just run dpkg --configure -a
[05:17] <lenovo_SUX> tritium:  in a 64 bit live cd and it defaulted to 1680x1050 on a old ast vision5l
[05:17] <cernex> Unless one of you guys know how to configure the D-Link wireless G thing...
[05:17] <newclimb> anyone know any hints do the chrome9 hc video driver?
[05:17] <sekyourbox> cloak didnt work
[05:17] <ivanm1> my mouse randomly stops moving for a few seconds, i f i stop hald it works ok. Is there any way to stop those random freezes without killing hald?
[05:17] <anto9us> Theaxiom, I'm not sure if that would create other problems for your web server
[05:17] <jeffz> yeah... great. doesn't look good.
[05:17] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Thanks
[05:17] <R_YoYo_R> jeffz, oic what you mean....but that command might not be smart either....unless you know exactly how everything is configured
[05:18] <nalioth> how do i get my hostname to resolve in apache2?
[05:18] <jeffz> R_YoYo_R: something has gone bad...
[05:18] <R_YoYo_R> jeffz, what now?
[05:19] <jeffz> R_YoYo_R: same as before, a bunch of packages are left unconfigured because the scripts which configure them segfault
[05:19] <Theaxiom> What do I do to find out what group(s) have what permisssions on a specific folder?
[05:20] <wbmj> jeffz:I tried to tell you
[05:20] <jeffz> wbmj: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#head-e059d5452a24b50d09c64df48058ef2d834eb197
[05:20] <R_YoYo_R> Theaxiom, gnome? just right click and properties
[05:20] <Theaxiom> R_YoYo_R: Thanks
[05:20] <jeffz> wbmj, unless you have a time machine, what you told me is of no use.
[05:20] <anto9us> Theaxiom, ls -l, addgroup, chown and chmod are your friends
[05:20] <R_YoYo_R> Theaxiom, there is a better command line command but i forgot it
[05:21] <Theaxiom> anto9us and R_YoYo_R, thanks
[05:21] <dmsuperman_> How can I get a cursor set to work all the time, instead of just when I mouse over certain windows?
[05:22] <Terralthra> I could still use help with a TI 1620 card reader on 8.04, if anyone has a spare minute.
[05:23] <Terralthra> I tried the howto on the forums, but it doesn't wor
[05:23] <Terralthra> work
[05:23] <Terralthra> lots of errors
[05:23] <Terralthra> and it's listed as being for Feisty
[05:24] <bouma> when i try and copy and paste between panes in pidgin, i get ... http://www.evil.com
[05:24] <bouma> i get that url pasted, when something else should be on the clipboard
[05:24] <bouma> wtf
[05:24] <Theaxiom> All I want to do is add write permissions for myself on /var/www - how would I do that?
[05:25] <Theaxiom> The only group with write access to it right now is root.
[05:25] <roxan> hello, where to look to see what new things coming in 8.1
[05:25] <Theaxiom> And I don't want to add myself to root.
[05:25] <dmsuperman_> Theaxiom: take ownership of it
[05:26] <dmsuperman_> Theaxiom: chown YOUR_USER /var/www
[05:26] <Theaxiom> dmsuperman_: Will that break anything?
[05:26] <wbmj> jeffz:sudo dpkg  --audit
[05:26] <dmsuperman_> Theaxiom: usually you actually want to do www-data to own it
[05:26] <jcarter> Theaxiom: Add yourself to the group for that folder
[05:26] <Theaxiom> jcarter: The group for that folder is root
[05:27] <dmsuperman_> Theaxiom: something like "sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www" and then the first permission byte will be for www-data
[05:27] <anto9us> Theaxiom, I'd just change group ownership, to www and join that group, then you can also add anything else that might need write permission to that group
[05:27] <angel> hyy
[05:27] <roxan> you can put write permission to world but not recommented
[05:27] <bouma> arrr
[05:27] <bouma> my clipboard is broken, it just pastes http://www.evil.com
[05:27] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Thanks
[05:27] <bouma> help
[05:28] <bouma> what is going on
[05:28] <bouma> i really need my clipboard
[05:28] <Theaxiom> bouma: lol sorry can't help you there
[05:28] <anto9us> Theaxiom, chgrp will change just group ownership, "chown user:group" changes both
[05:28] <dmsuperman_> How can I get a cursor set to work all the time, instead of just when I mouse over certain windows?
[05:28] <jeffz> wbmj: yeah, I can see which packages are half configured, I'm trying to work out the reason for the crash
[05:28] <Terralthra> What do you mean "set to work all the time"?
[05:28] <jcarter> bouma: might try logging out and back in.
[05:29] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Thank you, I will create a www group, then add apache2 to that, and then chgrp for /var/www
[05:29] <dmsuperman_> Sorry...whenever I mouse over gnome-panel or CCSM or my wallpaper, for instance, it reverts to the old cursor
[05:29] <dmsuperman_> But when I mouse over gnome-terminal, or firefox
[05:29] <anto9us> Theaxiom, that sounds good to me, yes
[05:29] <dmsuperman_> it shows my new cursor theme
[05:29] <MaverricK> okay silly question here.. installed KDE and decided i wanted to go back to gnome but can't figure out how to...
[05:29] <Theaxiom> MaverricK: You can choose from the login screen
[05:29] <dmsuperman_> MaverricK: when you go to login, change it to gnome
[05:29] <wbmj> jeffz:sudo dpkg  --audit......should give you suggestions for fixing things
[05:30] <anto9us> Theaxiom, add yourself to the www group too
[05:30] <MaverricK> ahh okay.. i knew it would have been an answer that was right in front of my face.. thanks.
[05:30] <Theaxiom> anto9us: of course, goes without saying :P thanks
[05:30] <jcarter> Maverrick: silly thought, but have you made a backup?
[05:30] <jeffz> wbmj: it doesn't tell me anything I don't already know, running dpkg --configure -a attempts to configure the outstanding packages and from there it goes down the toilet
[05:30] <anto9us> Theaxiom, yes, though it pays to be pedantic in this game :)
[05:30] <MaverricK> not yet i just installed ubuntu.. hadn't quite gotten around to it yet.
[05:31] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Yes. Ok problem, the only users I can add is me and root to the www group, how do I add apache2?
[05:31] <Flannel> Theaxiom: www-data is the "www" group, and apache already runs as it.
[05:32] <sekyourbox> lol, lsd ninjl
[05:32] <MaverricK> once i get a day off from work i'll be doing that..
[05:32] <Theaxiom> Flannel: That group is not showing in my groups list...
[05:32] <anto9us> Theaxiom, you can add as many users/processes as you like, edit /etc/group
[05:32] <Flannel> Theaxiom: that's fine, it exists.  ls -l /var/www/ and you'll see stuff.
[05:33] <Flannel> anto9us: No need to edit files manually
[05:33] <MaverricK> okay think thats all the questions for now..
[05:33] <anto9us> Theaxiom, Flannel is correct you can use the users-admin tool
[05:34] <Flannel> Or adduser, or a number of others.
[05:34] <Theaxiom> Flannel: /var/www is a symlink, and all I see is: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 2008-08-21 04:49 /var/www -> /media/System/Users/Travis Rowland/www/
[05:34] <Flannel> Theaxiom: er... I see.  Well, chown the files there to www-data:www-data and apache will be able to deal with them.
[05:35] <Theaxiom> Flannel: The problem is not apache, the problem is me writing to them...
[05:35] <Theaxiom> Flannel: Eclipse crashes every time I try to save, because it does not have permission
[05:35] <Flannel> Theaxiom: right, you then add yourself to the www-data group, and you're done (after allowing group writing)
[05:35] <Flannel> Theaxiom: why aren't you just using userdir, by the way?
[05:35] <Theaxiom> Flannel: How do I add myself to that group?
[05:35] <RecycleBin> Where can i find an older version of ubuntu ?
[05:35] <Theaxiom> Flannel: I want to edit the files in the www directory directly
[05:36] <Theaxiom> Flannel: They are on a shared partition with Vista
[05:36] <R_YoYo_R> RecycleBin, just curious why?
[05:36] <RecycleBin> i get the busybox error on this mobo, i need to install an older version and upgrade
[05:37] <anto9us> Theaxiom, I think the problem is your mount permission, that directory has global write permissions
[05:37] <Flannel> Theaxiom: adduser user group, will add user to group
[05:37] <Theaxiom> Flannel: Thanks I will try adduser travis www-data
[05:38] <Trogdorburn> How would one connect to an ubuntu/PulseAudio RTP stream from a windows streaming client like VLC/winamp? I'm not sure what's wrong.
[05:39] <Theaxiom> Flannel: Still didn't work :/
[05:39] <anto9us> Theaxiom, I think the problem is your mount permission, that directory has global write permissions
[05:39] <Flannel> Theaxiom: You need to make sure that directory has write permissions for the group, as well as owner.
[05:39] <RecycleBin> Found one
[05:39] <alistair_> Help: In Gnome Commander there is 'Open Terminal here' is this available with Nautilus?
[05:39] <Theaxiom> alistair_: sudo apt-get nautilus-open-terminal
[05:40] <Theaxiom> alistair_: Then in console type: killall nautilus
[05:40] <anto9us> Flannel, his directory is lrwxrwxrwx, I think his problem is the mount, yes?
[05:41] <alistair_> Theaxiom, that has to be done on every session right? I wanted a menu item that was always available the answer is no?
[05:41] <Theaxiom> alistair_: Only once
[05:41] <Theaxiom> alistair_: and you are all set
[05:41] <alistair_> Theaxiom, Tks vm!
[05:42] <alistair_> Theaxiom, got this : E: Invalid operation nautilus-open-terminal
[05:42] <anto9us> Theaxiom,
[05:42] <wbmj> jeffz:sudo dpkg  --force-configure-any
[05:43] <anto9us> Theaxiom, I believe you need to set permissions on your mount
[05:43] <Theaxiom> alistair_: Did you sudo?
[05:43] <alistair_> Theaxiom, To be sure just copied and pasted
[05:44] <Theaxiom> anto9us: I used a little utility called NTFS Configuration Tool to setup my partitions to automount
[05:44] <jeffz> wbmj, perl is segfaulting on doglob(..) when it calls the systemcall getdents64()
[05:44] <anto9us> Theaxiom, and can you write to it?
[05:44] <Theaxiom> anto9us: When I sudo I can...
[05:45] <anto9us> Theaxiom, then that's your problem, you need to set user permission on it
[05:45] <sekyourbox> does ubuntu work with .bin files?
[05:45] <Theaxiom> alistair_: sorry I forgot install: sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
[05:45] <wbmj> alistair:sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
[05:45] <Theaxiom> anto9us: How do I do that?
[05:45] <anto9us> Theaxiom, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VolumePermissions
[05:47] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Thanks I will follow that guide...appreciate it
[05:47] <Theaxiom> alistair_: The option won't appear until you: sudo killall nautilus
[05:47] <alistair_> Theaxiom, ok tks thats done now the killall that is needed too?
[05:47] <Theaxiom> alistair_: It reloads the GUI
[05:48] <Trogdorburn> How would one connect to an ubuntu/PulseAudio RTP stream from a windows streaming client like VLC/winamp? I'm not sure what's wrong.
[05:49] <Theaxiom> anto9us: /dev/sdc1 /media/System ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0       -yeah that is my problem, thanks very much I will fix it now
[05:49] <alistair_> Theaxiom, u wee beauty - ripper!

[05:51] <sekyourbox> Does anyone know the package name for PostgreSQL?
[05:52] <crimsun> postgresql
[05:52] <crimsun> pedantically, it would be closer to postgresql-8.3 for 8.04

[05:54] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Still won't work, even tried stopping apache
[05:54] <Flynsarmy> Have there been no updates on apt for well over a week?
[05:54] <Flynsarmy> Or has my automatic update broken?
[05:54] <troxor> gregbrady: do you get any error messages?
[05:54] <sekyourbox> slammed87d21 applications>add/remove, search screensaver
[05:54] <Theaxiom> anto9us: I am going to do it from livecd
[05:54] <anto9us> Theaxiom,  sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop?
[05:54] <busbey> anyone know how to change the defualt boot OS with grub?
[05:54] <Theaxiom> anto9us: Yeah I did that
[05:54] <troxor> slammed87d21: synaptic- rss_glx are awesome, if you've got 3d accel
[05:55] <slammed87d21> tried. it bribgs up a power saver app
[05:55] <anto9us> Theaxiom, any terminals cd'd to it?
[05:55] <troxor> busbey: you can use startup-manager, or edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:55] <slammed87d21> any other ideas?
[05:55] <Theaxiom> anto9us: nope
[05:55] <troxor> slammed87d21: rss-glx
[05:55] <Totakeke> Has anyone used UNetBootin to install Linux onto a flash drive?
[05:55] <busbey> under ubuntu or in the grub menu?

[05:57] <Ellement> Hi, I'm currently using ubntu at work and love it so i want to get rid of windows on my home pc and replace it with ubuntu. I'm concerned though whether or not ubuntu will drive dual screen on my video card which is ati 9200 PCI, can anyone help me out?
[05:57] <jeffz> wbmj: no, something is wrong since perl crashes
[05:57] <salmon> question... does anyone know how to uninstall pulse audio??
[05:57] <sekyourbox> what is SVN?
[05:57] <sekyourbox> google says subversion
[05:58] <troxor> sekyourbox: source code management system
[05:58] <jeffz> sekyourbox: it's subversion.
[05:58] <wbmj> jeffz:did you try purging perl
[05:58] <jeffz> sekyourbox: it's a slow, centralized version control system
[05:58] <sekyourbox> sounds like fun
[05:58] <Totakeke> So what do I do with UNetBootin after restarting from Windows? I think I'm on Linux right now because the CD isn't in the drive, but I'm not sure. I can't save anything and when I restart my computer it's like Linux just got installed for the first time. Is this because it isn't persistent?
[05:58] <troxor> salmon: probably just go into synaptic, search for pulse, then remove everything
[05:59] <Totakeke> Oh, wait, I'm probably on Linux using a Live USB instead of a Live CD, that might explain why nothing's saving?
[05:59] <jeffz> wbmj, several packages depend on perl, so I can't purge
[05:59] <busbey> vista says its deult os
[06:00] <anto9us> Totakeke, looks that way, yes, I think you've created a live usb rather than an installed one
[06:00] <busbey> i want it to be but its not. if my computer restarts and im not near it goes into linux
[06:00] <jeffz> wbmj, can't remove the packages that depend on perl because they have to run perl scripts to be removed
[06:01] <Totakeke> Anto9us: Is there any way to install it, instead of just using a Live USB? Is there some kind of application that can do it (preferably) or do I have to do it manually?
[06:01] <Ellement> Hi, I'm currently using ubntu at work and love it so i want to get rid of windows on my home pc and replace it with ubuntu. I'm concerned though whether or not ubuntu will drive dual screen on my video card which is ati 9200 PCI, can anyone help me out?
[06:01] <Fredd> is it possible and ok to change the size of the hard drive where ubuntu is installed?
[06:01] <anto9us> Totakeke, yes, you can install from the liveusb stick, provided there's space
[06:02] <Totakeke> Anto9us: Oh, there's space, 32 gigabytes in fact :P So I should just go ahead and install it like I normally would? (which I don't really want to, it gave me lots of problems before)
[06:02] <sekyourbox> is there a package for SAP?
[06:02] <alistair_> Help; Manually installing a .jar file. Cant find help do I typically drop files into /usr/bin
[06:02] <busbey> troxer you there?
[06:02] <anto9us> Totakeke, what's it matter? It's on a partition you can erase easily and get rid of without effecting anything else.
[06:03] <eligos> I downloaded xmms but can't install it, anyone knows how to?
[06:03] <gregbrady> troxor, yes, "Audio output unavailable; the device is busy"
[06:03] <anto9us> Totakeke, just remember to configure grub :)
[06:03] <jeffz> alistair_: typically you just run it by typing java -jar foo.jar
[06:04] <Totakeke> Anto9us: I'll make sure of it :P
[06:04] <owen1> please email reuters about lack of support for ubuntu in their online videos - http://reuters-en.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/reuters_en.cfg/php/enduser/ask.php?p_sid=omjB8Wbj&p_lva=&p_li=&p_accessibility=&p_redirect=&p_page=1&p_cv=&p_cats=&p_hidden_prods=&p_new_search=1&p_prod_lvl1=&p_masthead=us
[06:04] <alistair_> jeffz, tks but its a mp3 utility which should be iconized in the apps/media I know how to run it ok
[06:05] <Totakeke> Anto9us: But before I go and completely screw up (lol) when you say configure grub, do you just mean installing it to the correct place or actually configuring it?
[06:05] <Avi_IRC> how can I configure my audio driver
[06:05] <owen1> what a shame - big media site not supporting ubuntu!
[06:05] <eligos> can anyone tell me how to install something I just downloaded

[06:09] <Flynsarmy> Can anyone tell me if theyve had any automatic updates from the default sources in the last 1 week?
[06:10] <Flynsarmy> for hardy
[06:12] <alistair_> jeffz, why do you think I cannot move from desktop to home when permissions are all set?
[06:12] <gregbrady> ok, anyone else with a good audio solution?

[06:18] <gregbrady> Ok, CBC plays
[06:18] <Flynsarmy> its a pretty simple question people. Has anyone gotten any hardy updates in the past 1 week with the default apt sources?
[06:19] <MeVsTheVoices> Yes

[06:23] <sekyourbox> was that floodbot made with php?
[06:23] <Flannel> sekyourbox: No
[06:23] <sekyourbox> or .pl
[06:24] <anto9us> gregbrady, do you have the codecs installed for the media files you're trying to play?
[06:24] <sekyourbox> Im having a hell of a time getting libsshv.11 to install
[06:24] <gregbrady> yes, or the error would indicate so
[06:25] <zeeeee> cupsd is running on my system; is this enabled by default (at least in 8.04)? if not then i'll disable it
[06:25] <sekyourbox> is it possible to install 2x and .11 (libssh) at the same time?
[06:25] <jeffz> zeeeee: yes it's default, since many users wish to print things, if not to a real printer, to pdf
[06:26] <Ross`> is there a way to make directories public as if they were in a workgroup on windows
[06:26] <dmsuperman_> I log into gnome and all I get is a cursor and orange background. no panels show, compiz doesn't start, nothing. I've tried with another user, and they can start fine. Gnome, without xclient, and also failsafe gnome, do the exact same thing
[06:26] <Ross`> with ubuntu
[06:26] <anto9us> gregbrady, rhythmbox and banshee are similar alternatives to amarok, tried those?
[06:26] <zeeeee> jeffz, ah, i see. it's a daemon that only listens for localhost connections
[06:27] <jeffz> Ross`: if you want to use windows file sharing, you can do that with samba, or you could use apache to serve some files if it's intended to be readonly
[06:27] <gregbrady> anto9us: they work
[06:27] <jeffz> Ross`: I bet there are some howtos on one of the ubuntu websites
[06:27] <zoasterboy> Samba is simple enough, but is there a simple way to share Ubuntu to Ubuntu?
[06:28] <k20a> what would i use to turn the quake 3 source into the run abble game?

[06:53] <itachi> when i go to run it a comman propt comes up nd is like i cant run the os
[06:53] <Totakeke> Flannel: So the isntallation would go into root.
[06:54] <Whiz_2> Flannel: it sounds to me like when itachi boots up they get a command line instead of a desktop
[06:54] <Totakeke> Flannel: (You can tell I'm coming from Windows :P)
[06:54] <itachi> yep
[06:54] <itachi> exatly
[06:54] <pcfreak30> totakeke: then type statx
[06:54] <pcfreak30> but u soulnt have to do that
[06:54] <Flannel> itachi: Which CD did you use to install?
[06:54] <vdsy> rubydiamond, env
[06:54] <Avi_IRC> Flannel: bash: /etc/vuxrc: Permission denied
[06:54] <anto9us> Totakeke, go with / and swap as you can easily move your /home if you feel you need to later, 10GB+ for nicely sized linux playground
[06:54] <Totakeke> pcfreak30: I think you got the wrong person :P
[06:54] <pcfreak30> imean the run level is 5 by default which = gui
[06:54] <itachi> i just use my usb flashdriver
[06:55] <pcfreak30> i might
[06:55] <rubydiamond> thanks vdsy
[06:55] <pcfreak30> bit busy now
[06:55] <Flannel> Avi_IRC: sudo nano /etc/vuxrc
[06:55] <Flannel> Avi_IRC: or gksu gedit /etc/vuxrc
[06:55] <Totakeke> Alright, I just want to get this straight. 10 GiB for /, 4 or so GiB for swap, and the rest to /home? (about 18 GiB)?
[06:55] <Flannel> itachi: which ISO did you use?
[06:55] <geev_> hi to every one
[06:55] <Flannel> Totakeke: that'll be good, yeah.
[06:55] <pyrak> what should i format this external hd to?  i'm going to use it to make file backups with flyback
[06:55] <Totakeke> Flannel: Okay, thanks.
[06:55] <itachi> wat do u mean
[06:56] <Flannel> itachi: To install you downloaded an iso file, what was that file called?
[06:56] <itachi> ok 1 sec
[06:56] <Whiz_2> i'm still here for my original issue... during ubuntu server install (command line only) ubuntu setup tells me it cannot detect any common CD-ROM drives. it prompts me to specify a dev to use so I have pasted my entire /dev list for all to see in hopes of getting the right device. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/39613/
[06:56] <itachi> ubuntu 8.4 something
[06:57] <Flannel> itachi: Yes, but what exactly?
[06:57] <itachi> ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386
[06:57] <geev_> i hav a qn i head linux is free from virus but i see with ubuntu i can install clamwin, it is there for what purpose
[06:57] <BabyJesus666> Just incase?
[06:57] <Dacvak> Hello?
[06:58] <anto9us> pyrak, if it's just going to be used on linux then go with ext3
[06:58] <seth1232> geev: To scan for windows viruses
[06:58] <Dacvak> I recently installed Ubuntu and need help.
[06:58] <Dacvak> I'm trying to set the resolution for my laptop
[06:58] <trojatra> Dacvak, what seems to be the problem?
[06:58] <Dacvak> I need it to be 1024x768, but that's not listed
[06:58] <Dacvak> It's currently not taking up the whole screen at 800x600
[06:58] <neil_d> Can I limit the access to the internet on a user basis ?  i.e. allow user A to access the internet but not user B
[06:58] <Dacvak> It's a very old laptop.
[06:59] <Flannel> itachi: and what do you see when your install boots?
[06:59] <Whiz_2> I need assistance during install of ubuntu server 8.04 LTS
[06:59] <Totakeke> Is it alright to install an OS onto a flash drive? I mean, won't that wear it down much quicker or no, not that much? I'm not going to be on it all the time, I'd dedicate a hard drive if I wanted to do that.
[06:59] <Dacvak> Is there a way to manually set the screen resolution to something that's not currently listed?
[07:00] <trojatra> Dacvak, your xorg.conf should be able to do that for you.
[07:00] <_coredump_> moinsen
[07:00] <itachi> i just ran wubi
[07:00] <itachi> it was in the ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386
[07:00] <Dacvak> trojatra, how do I configure that? I'm a Linux noob.
[07:00] <MaverricK> trying to get gnome display manager to work but not having any success, currently its stuck on KDE
[07:01] <mojo> I have an Ubuntu Server and Desktop.  Is there a GUI client I can run on my desktop similar to Synaptic that will work against the server's package managers?  I can make an ssh connection to the server or whatever would be needed... any ideas?  Mabye a web-based synaptic i can run on the server?  it is a LAMP box
[07:01] <anto9us> !resolution | Dacvak
[07:01] <neil_d> mojo: should be able to use snaptic
[07:01] <hml> ls
[07:01] <hml> is there a way to watch quicktime in firefox on ubuntu?
[07:02] <DistroJockey> !apt-proxy | mojo
[07:02] <mojo> neil_d:  there is a way to make the gui client on my desktop manage the server???  i didn't nkow that
[07:02] <neil_d> mojo: vnc
[07:02] <mespejel> anyone using vmware
[07:02] <trojatra> Dacvak, I believe this should help  --  http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=129379&postcount=21
[07:02] <mespejel> im mean ubuntu installing by vmware
[07:02] <kaiwen> mespejel virtualbox
[07:02] <mespejel> installed
[07:03] <mojo> DistroJockey:  I know about apt-proxy, but i run AMD64 on the desktop and AthlonXP on the server.  Besides, that does not address my use
[07:03] <Whiz_2> I need assistance during install of ubuntu server 8.04 LTS. It says it can't detect any common CD-ROM drives during install even though it boots from one. it is an ATAPI CD-ROM drive attached to an IDE controller. Here is a list of devices shown in /dev if anyone has an idea which one to use? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/39613/
[07:03] <DistroJockey> mojo, ok
[07:03] <mespejel> kaaiwen.. do you have any kind of messenger? please i need to know something about virtual os
[07:03] <neil_d> mojo: are you doing this local or over the internet ?
[07:03] <kaiwen> mespejel, i'd rather not, plus i have finals tom.
[07:03] <mojo> neil_d:  vnc would mean installing a gui environment and libs on the server; i can use vnc or nx or whatever or remote x if i did but i don't want to add that to the server
[07:03] <kaiwen> mespejel just ask on here.
[07:04] <hml> is there anyway to watch quicktime movies on ubuntu linux in firefox?
[07:04] <itachi> when i go to run it a comman propt comes up nd is like i cant run the os
[07:04] <hateball> Is there a way to use /etc/iftab instead of udev in 8.04?
[07:04] <mojo> DistroJockey:  i don't want to just have a localized pkg database.  i want to manage the software on the server from the desktop with a gui or web front end as opposed to using aptitude on an ssh session.  i am just not grokking aptitude for some reason very well though i am well familiar with console apps
[07:04] <neil_d> mojo: oh.   one thing I do is use snaptic local to find the package names then use 'apt-get' on the server via ssh
[07:04] <kbrosnan> !quicktime | hml
[07:05] <mespejel> keiwen: Ok, is just that I dont get it... installing linux using virtualbox or vmware.. its really linux? i mean its using the kernel? cause i dont get it.. when i install ubuntu on my macbook.. nothing use to work.. keyboard, mighty mouse, etc.. now that i install vmware.. everything works! i dont get it.. leopard is sharing kernel with linux or what?
[07:05] <itachi> when i go to run it a comman propt comes up nd is like i cant run the os
[07:05] <mojo> neil_d:  that is a thought, though there are a few differences between the apps available in the different architectures i686 vs x86_64
[07:05] <itachi> can any1 help me i already install ubuntu but when i go to run it
[07:05] <hml> kbrosnan: thanks
[07:05] <itachi> can any1 help me i already install ubuntu but when i go to run it
[07:06] <yaya> s
[07:06] <mojo> itaschi do yo get a graphical boot screen first?  it could be you are at a grub prompt???  grub is the boot-loader program that boot-strapps the OS into memory
[07:07] <kaiwen> mespejel, no, it is really linux for both ends, virtualbox and vmware. vmware may have more support since ppl pay for it, virtualbox is free. vmware also has the plus of having some drivers that go with it already installed for you, which is why your jmouse and keyborad used to work
[07:07] <chumpas> hello
[07:07] <itachi> can any1 help me i already install ubuntu but when i go to run it
[07:07] <chumpas> whats wrong with it itachi?
[07:07] <mespejel> i get it
[07:07] <cernex> Escuse me, somebody knows were to check the IP on ubuntu?
[07:07] <itachi> can any1 help me i already install ubuntu but when i go to run it
[07:07] <mespejel> thanks for the info keiwen
[07:07] <mojo> itachi: don't repeat yourself pls
[07:07] <mojo> itachi:  ifconfig
[07:07] <neil_d> mojo: if you have nfs to the server maybe you could temperarly mount the servers /etc/apt on your local /etc/apt use snaptic to look up the packages (but not do anything) then run apt-get on the server.
[07:07] <itachi> well when i go to run the os
[07:08] <itachi> a command line comes up
[07:08] <seth1232> itachi: Put your question on one line, and try to describe what it is your seeing accurately
[07:08] <anto9us> cernex, ifconfig will list all network devices and associated ip addresses
[07:08] <mespejel> keiwen: and yeah its very expensive, im using try version.. lol
[07:08] <itachi> nd idk whats wrong
[07:08] <kaiwen> mespejel, plus macbook has it's own hardware, so for virtualbox, you may need to configure/install some stuff.
[07:08] <Whiz_2> mespejel: itachi's computer will only boot to a command line
[07:08] <itachi> exatly
[07:08] <Whiz_2> mojo: how else are people to see questions if they are not repeated after a time?
[07:08] <mespejel> keywen: 80$.. but i can use vista, linux and even solaris 64 bit support, i was surprised
[07:08] <mojo> neil_d:  yeah but that's just a kludgy work around with me still having to go manually install with apt or aptitude.  i would just plug on with aptitude if i had to then.
[07:08] <kaiwen> mespejel, I suggest you try to figure out what's wrong with the virtualbox then, another virtualization software you can use is parallels, which is more mac oriented
[07:08] <mespejel> I see
[07:08] <chumpas> okay
[07:08] <Trogdorburn> How would one connect to an ubuntu/PulseAudio RTP stream from a windows streaming client like VLC/winamp? I'm not sure what's wrong.
[07:09] <kaiwen> mespejel, they all have their pluses and downs, i think i have a comparison somewhere...
[07:09] <mojo> Whiz_2:  yeah, after a time.
[07:09] <chumpas> My question is, I'm trying to install wireless on an Atheros card
[07:09] <MaverricK> whenever i go to window login under administration it comes up with this.. how do i get gnome to reboot..
[07:09] <itachi> when i try to run the utubu a command line comes up i forgot what exatly tell me but yeh i cant use ubuntu
[07:09] <`brooks> Question:  I realize TOR is slow for a good reason, but does anyone know of an application/decent proxy list that I can use for every-day browsing when speed is a bit more important, or am I stuck with creepy adult friend-finder ads?
[07:09] <chumpas> but when I got to sudo make, it says there is no make
[07:09] <mespejel> keiwen: i was reading that vmware is much better than parallels, but i need to try as well
[07:09] <mespejel> keiwen: virtualbox works for mac as well?
[07:09] <MaverricK> GDM (GNOME Display Manager) is not running.
[07:09] <kaiwen> mespejel http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/VBox_vs_Others
[07:09] <Flannel> !repeat | itachi
[07:10] <kaiwen> mespejel, yes, have you not tried using it?
[07:10] <itachi> when i try to run the utubu a command line comes up i forgot what exatly tell me but yeh i cant use ubuntu
[07:10] <mespejel> noup
[07:10] <mespejel> never
[07:10] <mespejel> but you know why
[07:10] <MaverricK> You might be using a different display manager, such as KDM (KDE Display Manager), CDE login (dtlogin), or XDM. If you wish to use this feature, then your system will need to be configured to use GDM instead.
[07:10] <kaiwen> mespejel, download it from teh virtualbox site
[07:10] <neil_d> mojo: be handy if snaptic had a ncurses interface, but I don't know how to do anything like that.
[07:10] <mespejel> cause it does not support 64 bit
[07:10] <mespejel> thats why
[07:10] <jeffz> my system is booting kernel 2.6.18, but boot shows a 2.6.22-15, how do I select the newer kernel for default?
[07:10] <MaverricK> my question. how do i reconfig for it to use GDM?
[07:10] <mespejel> and i have 4gb of ram.. good for 64 bit
[07:10] <ross> hey
[07:10] <Flannel> MaverricK: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[07:10] <ross> how do i host directorys
[07:10] <kaiwen> mespejel, parallels doesn't according to the chart
[07:10] <ross> in my samba thing
[07:10] <sk33t0r> hey.. Im wondering if the reason why bf1942 is running strange is because of ubuntu and wine.. not because of my gfx card.. if thats the case Im gonna dual boot windows and ubuntu
[07:10] <Theaxiom> anto9us: I got everything working peachy now, thanks man. :) It was my mounts.
[07:10] <mojo> itachi is gone huh?
[07:10] <itachi8> soz im bak
[07:10] <Expl0ited> jeffz: remove the old one... in synaptic.
[07:11] <kaiwen> mespejel, looks like virtualbox does for host
[07:11] <jeffz> sk33t0r: how do you mean strange? I run it
[07:11] <Trogdorburn> 'brooks - AFF ads are just approximations of the closest router on a traceroute to you, connected to a few stock pictures.
[07:11] <itachi8> well like i was saying everytime i select ubuntu (OS) THE COMMAND LINE COMES UP...
[07:11] <anto9us> Theaxiom, well done and you're welcome
[07:11] <jeffz> Expl0ited: i textmode only, i don't have synaptic.. ill try it
[07:11] <trojatra> Dacvak, did that link help at all?
[07:11] <sk33t0r> the models look weird.. they're all red
[07:11] <Flannel> itachi8: *stop* repeating
[07:11] <sk33t0r> and explosion models dont show up
[07:11] <jeffz> sk33t0r: which video card and drivers?
[07:11] <Expl0ited> sk33t0r: you got BF1942 running?
[07:11] <sk33t0r> I have an atix300
[07:11] <sk33t0r> yessir
[07:11] <jeffz> Expl0ited: I run it almost dialy
[07:11] <sk33t0r> it works fairly well
[07:11] <`brooks> TordgorBirn: I realize this.
[07:11] <jeffz> sk33t0r: there's your problem
[07:11] <mojo> itachi8:  it would help to know what the "prompt" said or looked like.  which characters?  how far does the boot get.  Do yo see a message flash up about Grub stage 1.5 loading?   If you want to remove it, there are plenty of ways to do that in FF
[07:12] <mespejel> kaiwen: i will try it thanks let you know.. btw, what its your major?
[07:12] <Expl0ited> after the level is loaded.
[07:12] <jeffz> Expl0ited, it works almost flawlessly with my nvidia
[07:12] <itachi8> no
[07:12] <sk33t0r> jeffz, crap in ubuntu or crap in general
[07:12] <Expl0ited> :(
[07:12] <mespejel> keiwen: i mean.. your final exam.. which class?
[07:12] <mojo> itachi8:  so yo are selecting Ubuntu from the boot menu then, right?
[07:12] <itachi8> hold up i ma go nd copy what is says
[07:12] <jeffz> sk33t0r: crap in any linux, ati drivers are poorly written and impossible for ati to fix
[07:12] <itachi8> yes
[07:12] <Avi_IR1> Flannel: thanks for your help
[07:12] <Expl0ited> jeffz: Im using a intel card, should this be a problem?
[07:12] <sk33t0r> so are there any other drivers I should use?
[07:12] <kaiwen> mespejel, hopefully computer engineering. i have math and cse exam tom.
[07:12] <chumpas> Okay Guys, I have a Atheros AR5007 and I was following the howto in the Ubuntu forums, but when I enter the comman "sudo make" it does nothing...it actually says"No targets specified and no makefile found"
[07:12] <Dacvak> Hi, I'm editing my xorg.conf file in the standard terminal. How do I save my progress and close out? Is there anything special I need to do?
[07:12] <itachi8> mojo: yes
[07:13] <jeffz> Expl0ited: with intel, you get a "maybe", maybe it will work, maybe it will have bad performance
[07:13] <`brooks> TorgdorBurn: The ads are just one thing that slightly annoys me.  I want a hair of anonimity.
[07:13] <sk33t0r> yea Ive had a lot of problems getting it to work.. I need to stop compiz and replace it with metacity everythimg
[07:13] <neil_d> can you configure a firewall to allow user A to access the internet but not user B ?
[07:13] <mespejel> kaiwen: awsome, lol.. good luck
[07:13] <mojo> okay then it is likely that it is an OS prompt for Linux, not a Grub prompt.
[07:13] <sk33t0r> everytime*
[07:13] <kaiwen> mespejel ok guys time to start my all night shift. ttyl all
[07:13] <mespejel> keiwen: my major is biochemistry
[07:13] <mespejel> all right
[07:13] <itachi8> mojo: im gonna see what it says
[07:13] <seth1232> Dacvak: Did you use vim or nano?
[07:13] <mespejel> good luck in your exam
[07:13] <kaiwen> mespejel, i was also thinking double major in bio e
[07:13] <mespejel> bye bye
[07:13] <kaiwen> thanks
[07:13] <kaiwen> bye
[07:13] <Dacvak> nano
[07:13] <mespejel> nice
[07:13] <mojo> itachi8:  when you pick, does it say anything like "recovery" in the item you choose?  That would boot to a single user mode, text prompt I believe
[07:13] <FloodBot2> mespejel: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:13] <mespejel> sorry*
[07:13] <mojo> itachi8:  okay fine report back
[07:13] <sk33t0r> mespejel, at university of rochester?
[07:13] <itachi8> mojo: ok
[07:13] <jeffz> sk33t0r: you can try reporting the bug to ati if you are on the latest version of their drivers
[07:14] <Dacvak> seth1232: nano
[07:14] <mespejel> san diego state university
[07:14] <sk33t0r> bah fux ati.. I doubt they'll fix it as you said
[07:14] <seth1232> Dacvak: if you look down at the bottom it tells you ctrl+x to save
[07:14] <sk33t0r> is there any alternative to the ati drivers? or am I stuck
[07:14] <Dacvak> thanks
[07:14] <sk33t0r> otherwise I may be forced to dual boot windows just so I can play this beloved game
[07:14] <Theaxiom> If I want to play windows games in linux, do I need to install wine?
[07:14] <jeffz> sk33t0r: there's a free alternative for the ati drivers but they are incomplete
[07:14] <jeffz> Theaxiom: yes
[07:14] <Theaxiom> jeffz: What else?
[07:15] <chumpas> can anyone help me?
[07:15] <jeffz> Theaxiom: make sure you have 3d drivers installed, which video card do you have?
[07:15] <Flannel> mespejel: Chatting is preferred in #ubuntu-offtopic (you might also be interested in #ubuntu-california)
[07:15] <sk33t0r> jeffz, any chance they would work better or is that doubtful?
[07:15] <trojatra> Theaxiom, read a lot of documentation :P
[07:15] <Theaxiom> jeffz: I am using the drivers for my 8800GTX
[07:15] <mojo> sk33t0r:  ati has done quite a turn around with their linux and open source support so perhaps it's not fair to be as cynical as we all once were regarding them.  plus, bad language is bad form here even with xx's
[07:15] <Theaxiom> jeffz: I am using the new nvidia glx drivers
[07:15] <jeffz> sk33t0r: doubtful, I've seen some screenshots of some stuff and it still looks very preliminary
[07:15] <Dacvak> I tried to add potential resolutions, but I don't know how to do it. I'm trying to add the screen resolution 1024x768.
[07:15] <Trogdorburn> How would one connect to an PulseAudio RTP stream (my ubuntu box) from a windows streaming client like VLC/winamp?
[07:15] <ross`> can someone please tell me how to use samba
[07:15] <jeffz> Theaxiom: it should work well, check the appdb for compatibility with your programs http://appdb.winehq.org
[07:15] <sk33t0r> sorry mojo
[07:15] <zcat[1]> problem; my laptop doesn't work with any kind of external display, it works fine right up to the login screen but locks up hard a few seconds after logging in.. not a hardware problem because it still works (including logging in, playing videos, etc) when I boot from the live cd. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
[07:16] <Theaxiom> jeffz: Thanks bro
[07:16] <mojo> sk33t0r:  np
[07:16] <sk33t0r> hmm I may be forced to dual boot w/ windows just to play these games
[07:16] <zcat[1]> sorry, didn't mean to hit capslock there..
[07:16] <ross`> how do i have directorys or stuff show up on my samba network
[07:16] <sk33t0r> I just bought a $10 pack that included all bf1942 and expansions plus bfv
[07:16] <sk33t0r> best 10 bucks Ive ever spent
[07:16] <hackbozy> eexit
[07:16] <sk33t0r> at best buy
[07:16] <jeffz> sk33t0r: yeah, it's a shame, I wrote a letter to the president of ATI because I was so annoyed that I had bought an ati video card and it was useless
[07:16] <hackbozy> exit
[07:16] <chumpas> can anyone help me?
[07:16] <mojo> umm okay i have to leave for a bit, guess itachi will miss me
[07:16] <sk33t0r> jeffz, did you receive any sort of response?
[07:17] <chumpas> Okay Guys, I have a Atheros AR5007 and I was following the howto in the Ubuntu forums, but when I enter the comman "sudo make" it does nothing...it actually says"No targets specified and no makefile found"
[07:17] <zcat[1]> chumpas: you tried ./configure first?
[07:17] <chumpas> thanks zcat
[07:17] <anto9us> Trogdorburn, as a guess, enter the ip address of the ubuntu box into the rtp box in vlc's open network stream dialog box
[07:17] <sk33t0r> I used to love ATI cards on my windows machine.. now that I switched to linux.. I see that they are not very good with it.. very disappointing
[07:17] <chumpas> zcat[1]: I'll try that
