[08:14] <lightstar> jschiff, some ppl might actually try it out
[08:14] <Cyber_Stalker> and then you drop commands like that
[08:14] <jschiff> i'v done it 3 times =] it's quite fun
[08:14] <buttercups> jschiff, your opinions I have seen about arch Linux offer no help in a Ubuntu help channel...
[08:14] <Cyber_Stalker> in here where there are new users
[08:14] <Cyber_Stalker> who could actually make the mistake of permorming that command
[08:14] <musikgoat> at least he didn't add sudo
[08:14] <jschiff> buttercup i'v helped 3 people here
[08:14] <Cyber_Stalker> performing*
[08:14] <jschiff> ubuntu is a great starting distrobutions
[08:14] <Cyber_Stalker> musikgoat: he did
[08:14] <ratpoison> musikgoat: rm -r /path/to/folder/* will remove eveyrthing
[08:15] <slate> hi, my gutsy upgrade says cannot authenticate a few packages including kdelibs-data
[08:15] <musikgoat> oops missed that.
[08:15] <jschiff> yeah ok... everyone: DONT RUN sudo rm -r /
[08:15] <musikgoat> ratpoison: it will remove all folders and files in that folder
[08:15] <musikgoat> but not the folder itself
[08:15] <ratpoison> yup, I want to remove JUST the empty folders
[08:15] <musikgoat> if you need to leave files...
[08:15] <Cyber_Stalker> OH ratpoison that changes it
[08:15] <musikgoat> i don't know the syntax on that
[08:16] <jschiff> to remove an empty folder?
[08:16] <ratpoison> That's what I said at the beginning
[08:16] <jschiff> rm -r /path/to/folder
[08:16] <kiff> hi to all!!!
[08:16] <Cyber_Stalker> jschiff: to remove ONLY the empty folders in a dir
[08:16] <jschiff> oh..

[08:17] <jschiff> mmk..
[08:17] <[chr0n0s]> kiff, ask, but i doubt that i can help :(
[08:17] <brade1> wen i click on the sound icon this message comes up
[08:17] <brade1> The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.
[08:17] <Cyber_Stalker> cant you just do a "rm /path/*" because it will only remove empty folders?
[08:18] <brade1> does anyone know if i can get my sound to work??
[08:18] <kiff> [chr0n0s]: "aptitude install xchat" ... and simply don't work
[08:18] <jschiff> brade: uh oh =)
[08:18] <kiff> on ubuntu 7.10
[08:18] <ratpoison> rm is for files
[08:18] <sSiroSoriSs> can I install ubuntu on my mp3 player?
[08:18] <ratpoison> rmdir is for folders
[08:18] <Cyber_Stalker> cant you just do a "rm /path/*" because it will only remove empty folders? the -r forces it to remove folders with contents, so with out the -rm?
[08:18] <dhira> hai apa kbr
[08:18] <[chr0n0s]> kiff, use sudo aptitude install xchat
[08:18] <jschiff> no
[08:18] <jschiff> cyber: rm can never remove a folder
[08:18] <kiff> [chr0n0s]: yes... from root :°(
[08:18] <brade1> jschiff> whos that "no" to?
[08:18] <jschiff> rm -r must be used to remove a folder
[08:19] <kraut> moin
[08:19] <jschiff> brade: sound is a complex issue
[08:19] <[chr0n0s]> kiff, paste the error in bin

[08:19] <ratpoison> :)
[08:19] <sSiroSoriSs> can I install ubuntu on my mp3 player?????
[08:19] <Cyber_Stalker> jschiff: -r, -R, --recursive   remove directories and their contents recursively
[08:19] <jschiff> ratpoison: i did that on my old ubuntu machine
[08:19] <brade1> where can i get alsa?
[08:19] <brade1> what is alsa?

[08:22] <Cyber_Stalker> !alsa | brade1
[08:22] <ubotu> brade1: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[08:23] <jschiff> uh.. siro u ok? =o
[08:23] <brade1> sSiroSoriSs> The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.
[08:23] <brade1> wen i click on the sound icon that message comes up
[08:23] <jschiff> brade: install gstreamer =)

[08:28] <Cyber_Stalker> !forums | brade1
[08:28] <ubotu> brade1: The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org. There is also a channel on IRC Freenode #ubuntuforums.
[08:28] <inversekinetix> want a copy?
[08:28] <musikgoat> i can only say it looks better than vista, thats all
[08:28] <Cyber_Stalker> ill have a look and see aswell
[08:29] <jschiff> hey
[08:29] <Cyber_Stalker> why does ubotu say " There is also a channel on IRC Freenode #ubuntuforums." when we are in that channel on that very server?
[08:29] <jschiff> secion
[08:29] <jschiff> http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide
[08:29] <ratpoison> well, I found it myself
[08:29] <musikgoat> ratpoison: explain
[08:29] <brade1> ubotu> can the people on #ubuntuforums help me?
[08:29] <mEck0> can someone please help me with getting mpd to work?!I have tried with a couple of guides but nothing works. mpd doesn't create the db, even mpc ls | mpc add doesn't add my music from the dir :/
[08:29] <jschiff> cyber: some questions will never be answered
[08:29] <ratpoison> rmdir /path/to/folder/*
[08:29] <ratpoison> rmdir removes just empty folders
[08:30] <jschiff> =o i did not know that lol
[08:30] <ratpoison> it complains about non-folders and non-empty folders
[08:30] <ratpoison> but it does the job
[08:30] <Cyber_Stalker> jschiff: in relation to?
[08:30] <musikgoat> i guess you will just get alot of error
[08:30] <jschiff> cyber: ubotu
[08:30] <musikgoat> but that works
[08:30] <secion8> jschiff: thanx
[08:30] <jschiff> secion: yeah i went through all of that a while ago
[08:30] <SuperQ> Gatestone: back
[08:30] <jschiff> secion: when i thought eyecandy was the shiznit
[08:31] <ratpoison> thnx anyway guys!
[08:31] <jschiff> back when i was using ubuntu *shudders*
[08:31] <Cyber_Stalker> brade1: ubotu is a bot, he cant "chat" he can just provide responses, but i wouldnt look into that channel, use the forums search feature with some of the error you get when dbl clicking the sound icon and see what you get
[08:31] <musikgoat> i still have use the cube frequently
[08:31] <jschiff> u don't need the cube, to have multiple desktops
[08:31] <inversekinetix> is anyone familiar with mame?
[08:31] <dxdt> I use the expose clone function (Scale is it called?) like every few seconds.  It rocks hard
[08:32] <musikgoat> jschiff: i do :-)
[08:32] <MilitantPotato> how do you tell a exe to run on a specific core?
[08:32] <dxdt> past that I guess I don't use much.  I have wobbly windows on cause it makes me smile when they wobble a lot.  Sometimes I just sit and wobble them
[08:32] <jschiff> musikgoat: ur cpu hates u
[08:32] <secion8> I knwo it is not necessary but just makes it easier to look at.
[08:32] <brade1> Cyber_Stalker> so i have to look around in the ubuntu forums for the issue i have
[08:32] <brade1> rite??
[08:32] <musikgoat> jschiff: yes it does
[08:32] <jschiff> u'll get over it someday
[08:32]  * dxdt wobbles his IRC window
[08:32] <SuperQ> dxdt: heh
[08:32] <jschiff> when u get all obsessed with speed like me =)
[08:33] <dxdt> jschiff: you mean cpu use with COmpiz-fusion or?
[08:33] <musikgoat> i can see that from other machines
[08:33] <jschiff> unreliability
[08:33] <jschiff> hey hey
[08:33] <musikgoat> but i will always keep one with the eyecandy
[08:33] <jschiff> turn down the friction to 0.1
[08:33] <Cyber_Stalker> yes brade1 but use the search feature combined with your error and your well on your way to fixing your issue, you could also try #alsa BUT last time i was there support took forever
[08:33] <jschiff> and see what happens =]
[08:33] <dxdt> cause mine never goes above like 20% and even the 20% is when I'm really stressing it like cube spinning while playing movies on edges and wobbling windows and such.  Most the time it stays really low.
[08:33] <ensonic> forget it then
[08:33] <Ademan> hey what's the "best" way to securely talk to a daemon? like would a fifo owned by root that only root could write to be appropriate? or what?
[08:33] <lightstar> MilitantPotato, you can get an executable to run on a specific core using taskset
[08:34] <brade1> Cyber-Stalker> ok thanks
[08:34] <inversekinetix> cpu goes to 20% when turning cube?
[08:34] <jschiff> rofl
[08:34] <brade1> Cyber-Stalker> what shuld i type in?
[08:34] <jschiff> that's really bad
[08:34] <MilitantPotato> lightstar: ty
[08:34] <Lolaeilo> Can someone help me ?
[08:34] <brade1> Cyber - Stalker>the exact words of the issue or something else?
[08:34] <jschiff> !ask | Loleailo
[08:34] <ubotu> Loleailo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:34] <lightstar> MilitantPotato, np...you might have to install schedutils first though
[08:35] <musikgoat> jschiff: mine does for a split sec, then hovers around 5-10
[08:35] <Cyber_Stalker> brade1:
[08:35] <musikgoat> i just have a dual core 1.8s
[08:35] <dxdt> inversekinetix: only when I'm like freaking it out.  like spinning as fast as possible and back and forth and playing movies, etc.  That is my point.  Most of the time the CPU use with compiz-fusion is VERY low with gutsy.  Unnoticeable even.
[08:35] <jschiff> musikgoat: ouch..
[08:35] <musikgoat> its a laptop
[08:35] <brade1> Cyber_Stalker> nothin came thru...delbritate?
[08:35] <MilitantPotato> lightstar: doing it as ya typed :)
[08:35] <mty> hi all
[08:35] <Cyber_Stalker> brade1: the error you get when dbl clicking the speaker icon. some shiznit about GStream n stuff just use some of that error msg
[08:35] <inversekinetix> dxdt mine barely flutters
[08:35] <brade1> Cyber_Stalker> thanks
[08:35] <jschiff> apt-get remove ubuntu
[08:35] <jschiff> =]
[08:35] <sSiroSoriSs> !!!!!!!miguel wanted to marter. mcfarlane + KareN wanted to massacre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:35] <Lolaeilo> Well: Yesterday I rebot while I was making a parition in windows, so my windows... is "out"... Now I want download some files from my live cd linux..
[08:35] <Cyber_Stalker> brade1: pleasure buddy
[08:36] <Lolaeilo> . Can I burn them??
[08:36] <Lolaeilo> with cd/dvd creator?
[08:36]  * inversekinetix is off for some quake 3!
[08:36] <dxdt> inversekinetix: Again, it isn't a problem, the machine doesn't even lag, I just notice that the cpugraph I have open has spikes that go up to twenty sometimes.
[08:36] <jschiff> lolaeilo: yes, use k3b or anything u want
[08:36] <lightstar> MilitantPotato, :)
[08:36] <mty> I don't use ubuntu, i use debian, but i wanted to know how ubuntu removes initial kernel messages (before usplash)...
[08:36] <Lolaeilo> k3b?? whats k3b jschiff  ?
[08:36] <jschiff> mty: good
[08:36] <mty> some one knows?
[08:36] <dxdt> Lolaeilo: not unless you have two drives.  I don't think you can eject the LIveCD to stick in blank media
[08:36] <jschiff> mty: try Arch linux =]
[08:37] <jschiff> Lolaeilo: in fact just type cdrecord dev=0,0,0 image.iso
[08:37] <dxdt> I used to run archlinux.  Then I realized that i might as well just use gentoo if using arch.
[08:37] <jschiff> dxdt: nope
[08:37] <jschiff> dxdt: arch is binary based
[08:37] <dxdt> jschiff: yep
[08:37] <dxdt> I know
[08:37] <lightstar> dxdt, that's not true. at least in arch you don't have to compile everything from source
[08:37] <dxdt> I didn't it say it wasn't
[08:38] <jschiff> lightstar: u don't have to in gentoo either
[08:38] <jschiff> don't judge what u don't know
[08:38] <lightstar> jschiff, sabayon?
[08:38] <jschiff> lighstar: sabayon is just eyecandy and bloat
[08:38] <dxdt> sabayon sucks
[08:38] <jschiff> 3.8 gigs based on gentoo? that's bs
[08:38] <mty> so nobody can answer my question?
[08:38] <lightstar> jschiff, ahh...almost tried that out:P
[08:38] <jschiff> lightstar: eww =]
[08:39] <jschiff> mty: press alt-f2
[08:39] <Lolaeilo> That in my terminal , isit jschiff  ?
[08:39] <MilitantPotato> lightstar: taskset --cpu-list does nothing....?
[08:39] <Lolaeilo> is it*
[08:39] <brade1> Cyber_Stalker> error when i open dbl by clicking on the speaker icon is that good enough for the search?
[08:39] <jschiff> Lolaeilo: yes
[08:39] <mty> jschiff, pre-init kernel messages....
[08:39] <jschiff> mty: oh..
[08:39] <mty> jschiff, before usplash
[08:39] <jschiff> mty: have no idea, i don't use usplash
[08:39] <Lolaeilo> ok , im newbie... im downloading from a webpage, not from p2p
[08:39] <mty> jschiff, it doesn't matter
[08:40] <lightstar> MilitantPotato, taskset -c <cpu> program name
[08:40] <Cyber_Stalker> brade yes that should be fine
[08:40] <brade1> ok thanks
[08:40] <mty> do you know what method ubuntu uses to elminate that messages?
[08:40] <jschiff> mty: the microsoft-esque one
[08:40] <Cyber_Stalker> brade1: if you dont get results then try shortening the error msg, dont be as specific and you should get more results
[08:40] <MilitantPotato> 0 and 1 lightstar?
[08:40] <jschiff> mty: i have no idea sorry
[08:40] <MilitantPotato> for cores
[08:40] <lightstar> MilitantPotato, i believe its 1 or 2
[08:40] <Lolaeilo> jschiff,  Does ubuntu accepts. rar?
[08:41] <jschiff> moral of the story! APT-GET REMOVE --PURGE UBUNTU
[08:41] <Lolaeilo> accept*

[08:48] <Cyber_Stalker> and your wanting to move to linux?
[08:48] <MilitantPotato> jschiff: how do I work it>
[08:48] <Lolaeilo> Cyber_Stalker,  I was making a partition, and I rebooted my pc.. so I got this msg: Interrumpted operation, insert recovery cd....... etc

[08:49] <Lolaeilo> Cyber_Stalker, I just want linux, at the moment to install windows after format
[08:49] <jschiff> one flag selects the cpu number.. another it's speed
[08:49] <lightstar> Cyber_Stalker, strange to see mysql-server quit with that error msg
[08:49] <rgl> jschiff, cpufreqselector?
[08:49] <pkh> how do I get the ttyUSB* devices to show up for a sierra wireless modem (the faqs all assume they exist, and they're not appearing for me in ubuntu)
[08:49] <jschiff> rgl: not u =]
[08:49] <Lolaeilo> And after installing windows , ill install linux.
[08:49] <jschiff> rgl: hold on
[08:50] <Cyber_Stalker> lightstar: sudo dpkg --reconfigure mysql-server-5.0
[08:50] <pkh> anyone know -- they use the sierra driver (and that depends on the usbserial driver)
[08:50] <Cyber_Stalker> Lolaeilo: so your going to format. there nothing you want to save from your drive?
[08:50] <Lolaeilo> Cyber_Stalker,  How Can I save?? I dont have a security copy
[08:50] <lightstar> Cyber_Stalker, , didn't work i presume
[08:50] <Lolaeilo> Thats worst ;(
[08:50] <Cyber_Stalker> lightstar: it doesnt know what --reconfigure is lol
[08:51] <jschiff> lolaelilo you just lost your windows partition lol
[08:51] <jschiff> lolaeilo don't worry same thing happened to me =o
[08:51] <lightstar> Cyber_Stalker, dangit... i could have sworn there was a --reconfigure option. hang on let me check
[08:51] <Cyber_Stalker> Lolaeilo:? security copy? im talking about having a second machine, dropping ure hard drive in there as a slave and copying music/pics etc across
[08:51] <Lolaeilo> jschiff,  And .. what can i do
[08:51] <Lolaeilo> ah Cyber_Stalker
[08:51] <jschiff> lolaeilo: never get impregnated by bill gates again
[08:51] <Cyber_Stalker> lol jschiff and Lolaeilo same thing happened here thats why im on linux now
[08:52] <Cyber_Stalker> thats why i moved over
[08:52] <Cyber_Stalker> :D
[08:52] <jschiff> DON'T LET BILL GATES IMPREGNATE YOU
[08:52] <Lolaeilo> Im not sure..  And finally.. install linux
[08:55] <lightstar> Cyber_Stalker, ahh...complete reinstall huh
[08:55] <brade1> does that mean anything??
[08:55] <Cyber_Stalker> brade1: search for that then :D
[08:55] <Lolaeilo> What do you think about that?
[08:55] <rgl> jschiff, is there a way to do full window resize in gutsy (when using compiz)?
[08:55] <jschiff> lolaeilo: sounds good lol
[08:55] <brade1> Cyber_Stalker> ok :D
[08:55] <Cyber_Stalker> lightstar: cause ive tried that, let me try ure command n then we see
[08:55] <douviss_> Hello
[08:55] <Lolaeilo> Really?
[08:55] <douviss_> it is secure to use ubuntu ?
[08:55] <jschiff> rgl: oh... i understand what u mean now
[08:55] <jschiff> rgl: not that i know of =o
[08:56] <lightstar> Cyber_Stalker, autoremove removes all dependencies and what not and removes any config file..hopefully when you reinstall it will replace everything again
[08:56] <jschiff> rgl: just don't maximize ur windows :P
[08:56] <Agent_bob> does ubiquity still suck worse than all other installers combined, or has it inproved any ?
[08:56] <Lolaeilo> ok jschiff
[08:56] <Cyber_Stalker> hey lightstar it looks promising
[08:56] <Cyber_Stalker> ok, how should i go about installing mysql now
[08:56] <jschiff> lolaeilo: good luck
[08:56] <lightstar> Cyber_Stalker, cross your fingers ;)
[08:56] <Lolaeilo> thx
[08:56] <Cyber_Stalker> will take your recommendation so it works :D
[08:56] <lightstar> Cyber_Stalker, sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.0
[08:56] <Lolaeilo> So I need to install linux now :((((((
[08:56] <Cyber_Stalker> douviss_: yes ubuntu is secure
[08:56] <lightstar> Cyber_Stalker, just install that first and see if it works
[08:57] <jschiff> lolaeilo: not really
[08:57] <pkh> Lolaeilo, if you can afford to spend a few dollars, get yourself an external hard drive and keep the two operating systems separate...  much simpler -- i have windows on the internal hard drive and put ubuntu on the external usb drive
[08:57] <brade1> Cyber_Stalker> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=230558&highlight=No+volume+control+GStreamer+plugins+and%2For+devices+found.
[08:57] <brade1> can u please look at that and see if that could help me possibly??
[08:57] <jschiff> lolaeilo: just reinstall windows then install linux
 douviss_: yes ubuntu is secure <<<<   ?
[08:57] <jschiff> LOL
[08:57] <Lolaeilo> jschiff,  rofl?

[08:57] <Lolaeilo> How Do I reinstall that?
[08:57] <Cyber_Stalker> its much better then windows
[08:57] <Lolaeilo> Inserting the cd ?
[08:58] <Cyber_Stalker> and if managed correctly ubuntu is secure aswell... so not sure why all the loling
[08:58] <jschiff> lolaeilo: that'll do it
[08:58] <Agent_bob> Cyber_Stalker yeah  but you didn't say anything...
[08:58] <Lolaeilo> ahhhhhh

[09:08] <brade1> can anyone help me??
[09:08] <Mohero> Hi all
[09:08] <Mohero> can anyone help me with IPTables?
[09:08] <lightstar> Mohero, what kind of help?
[09:09] <Mohero> I have a working IP Tables script, but like any FTP server, it gets alot of login failures, so I have a script to create the new rules for IPTables, but I can't find where Ubuntu stores the IPTables rules file
[09:09] <Mohero> or how to restart IPTables after adding to the file.
[09:09] <Agent_bob> first k8's are p4 in the intel line correct ?
[09:09] <Mohero> I've used WebMin to setup IPTables in the first place
[09:09] <wado> defrysk: hmm this is not solve my problem :(
[09:09] <lightstar> Mohero, you're script can directly add the rules to iptables without restarting
[09:10] <defrysk> wado, too bad :(
[09:10] <Mohero> ok lightstar, but where is the rules file?
[09:10] <lightstar> Mohero, and you usually don't want to make it persistant always..those IPs could be dynamic
[09:10] <Agent_bob> Mohero freshmeat.org search for quicktables  handy for a server
[09:11] <Mohero> i know that, it just means I don't have to spend 2 hours of my day blocking requests.
[09:12] <lightstar> Mohero, /etc/iptables.save i think
[09:12] <lightstar> Mohero, look in /etc for a files that starts with iptables...
[09:13] <Mohero> doesn't appear so, the server is running 6.06 at the moment, I have /etc/iptables.up.rules this is what webmin uses, then it posts it *somewhere* that IPTables knows about, but I have no idea where...
[09:14] <OpenGuru> Hi All.
[09:14] <lightstar> Mohero, it should be there...hang on..lemme check my webmin
[09:14] <JimmyDee> Mohero, terminal, cd /'
[09:14] <JimmyDee> Mohero, terminal, cd /
[09:14] <OpenGuru> Any one here who knows howto configure apcupsd ?
[09:14] <Agent_bob> Mohero you are not thinking of the actual routing tables are you ?    that's in ram.  part of the kernel      iptables -L  will show it.
[09:14] <HehawOK> Hello, I installed Ubuntu on my machine, and it ran very lagged.
[09:15] <JimmyDee> Mohero, find / -name iptables.up.rules
[09:15] <Lobinho> hi all
[09:15] <MilitantPotato> Agent_bob: Know any reason why both cores wouldn't be used at the same time?
[09:15] <HehawOK> Worse than any windows
[09:15] <JimmyDee> make that sudo find / -name iptables.up.rules
[09:15] <MilitantPotato> Agent_bob: the cores trade off being at 100% load, it looks like a double helix in system monitor
[09:15] <HehawOK> Is Xubuntu worth a try?
[09:15] <MilitantPotato> HehawOK: it's not bad.
[09:15] <OpenGuru> anyone who know apcupsd
[09:16] <Mohero> JimmyDee I only have that file in /etc/iptables.up.rules but when I modify this file it doesn't go into IPTables
[09:16] <Agent_bob> MilitantPotato no sorry.  i don't have a dual core box to play with so i have never tried to learn that.
[09:16] <Mohero> Webmin appears to use that file to *play* with before it commits it
[09:16] <HehawOK> MilitantPotato: I am on a p2 450 MHz, 10 gb internal, 320 MB of RAM, Voodoo3 3dfx 8MB
[09:16] <JimmyDee> Mohero, I'm sorry I use guarddog for my ip tables stuff
[09:16] <lightstar> Mohero, you have to load it again using iptables-restore /etc/iptables.up.rules
[09:16] <OpenGuru> APCUPSD anyone :(
[09:16] <MilitantPotato> HehawOK: it's alot easier on the recourses
[09:17] <HehawOK> MilitantPotato: I blame it on the effects I couldn't turn off
[09:17] <MilitantPotato> HehawOK: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[09:17] <Agent_bob> HehawOK you have me beet by 100mhz   >:]
[09:17] <crdlb> "couldn't turn off"?
[09:17] <HehawOK> crdlb: Yes, that window, in to window, in to window, then minumized/closed
[09:17] <HehawOK> Silly crap
[09:18] <crdlb> what kind of effects?
[09:18] <HehawOK> that
[09:18] <HehawOK> And God forbid when I started using alt  + tab
[09:18] <JimmyDee> Mohero, have you tried guarddog, its fairly simple
[09:18] <HehawOK> And changing IM windows
[09:18] <HehawOK> etc
[09:19] <Lolaeilo> how can I run gparted from terminal
[09:19] <Lobinho> kind of a strange firefox question - i'm in japan and so google searches and many websites default to the japanese sites.  i can tell google preferences to only search for pages in english, but it never saves the preference - have to do it every time.  any way to fix this?
[09:19] <JimmyDee> Lolaeilo, ummmm type gparted?
[09:19] <dburnett77> Anyone hear of the "skedoodle" virii inclements?
[09:19] <crdlb> HehawOK: http://static.flickr.com/98/251075270_1efc91e265.jpg it looked like that?
[09:19] <IanLiu> I've got a WMA file, but when I play it, Ubuntu says "This file is encrypted and cannot be played." What should I do?
[09:19] <lightstar> Lolaeilo, add sudo in front of that command
[09:19] <JimmyDee> yeah sudo gparted
[09:20] <gordonjcp> Lobinho: is there anything helpful in "about:config"?
[09:20] <HehawOK> crdlb: No, I am talking about the silly animations when you minumized/closed programs
[09:20] <HehawOK> or windows
[09:20] <dburnett77> about:config = disable/default plugin handling
[09:20] <HehawOK> But in gerneral
[09:20] <Mohero> JimmieDee that's not the issue, the issue is purely loading the file using iptables-restore /etc/iptables.up.rules seems to work appart from it craps out on line 2 which is "*nat" I'm guessing this is something that WebMin has added in, there's also "*mangle" and "*filter" anyone know what they do?
[09:20] <HehawOK> Would Xubuntu be worth trying ?
[09:20] <jllj> IanLiu, you might want to add medibuntu repo then get w32codecs along with gstreamer0.10-* (if your on broadband) unless its DRM protected then i dont know what will allow playing it
[09:20] <HehawOK> Or should I scrap it
[09:21] <HehawOK> Or Xfce
[09:21] <Lobinho> gordonjcp: umm, sorry kind of a beginner. where would i find about:config?
[09:21] <JimmyDee> well bad news is webmin is !supported
[09:21] <gordonjcp> Lobinho: type it into the address bar
[09:21] <JimmyDee> it does bad things to config files
[09:21] <crdlb> HehawOK: you're not being very clear, but it sounds like compiz is running, did you check: system>preferences>appearance>visual effects ?
[09:21] <jllj> HehawOK, xubuntu uses XFCE
[09:21] <IanLiu> Hmm, I think when I copied from CD, I told windows to protect it. I will copy directly with ubuntu, thanks!
[09:22] <HehawOK> No.  I got too tired of it, and put in XP.  Now I remember why I wanted to change in the first place.
[09:22] <dburnett77> lobinho, mozilla.org>com has info.
[09:22] <OpenGuru> any gutsy user here ?
[09:22] <jllj> OpenGuru, guilty
[09:22] <HehawOK> All these damn AV, spyware , blah blah lagging me down again
[09:22] <OpenGuru> I need the /etc/init.d/halt file of gutsy gibbon
[09:22] <Mohero> JummieDee I didn't ask about if Webmin was supported I know it isn't, I only asked about the IPTables rules file
[09:22] <dburnett77> simple, use gedit.  Halt is a command.
[09:22] <gordonjcp> does anyone even use webmin any more?
[09:23] <JimmyDee> Mohero, what I'm saying is theres no telling what in blazes webmin has done to your files
[09:23] <OpenGuru> dburnett77, i have screwed up halt with out taking backup. so i need a fresh copy of it
[09:23] <troughton> i have updated to 7.10 and have now got a wlan0:ava added to my network conection how do i disable wlan0:ava ???
[09:23] <lightstar> gordonjcp, guilty...except i don't rely on it for the firewall rules
[09:23] <dburnett77> It's intrinsic to the kernel, fresh compile should get the links re-established.
[09:24] <HehawOK> But in general , I liked the look of Xfce better than Gnome.  So here I am back in windows, wondering if it's worth a try to go back to a linux version?  After having the lag of my life
[09:24] <jllj> OpenGuru, my /etc/init.d/halt is right here http://pastebin.ca/757398
[09:24] <JimmyDee> Mohero, all I can tell you is how I do it, and thats install guarddog and let it put all the iptables files IN for me
[09:24] <OpenGuru> jllj, Thank you very much.  I have a daemon that has a proper start|stop|restart script in /etc/init.d/. How can I set that daemon to start on machine bootup and stop on machine shutdown *the proper ubuntu way*
[09:25] <OpenGuru> jllj, are u using APC ups ? Whether you have installed apcupsd ?
[09:26] <jllj> OpenGuru, i'm using UPS but its not connected to the computer at all
[09:26] <OpenGuru> tuna, you need to register to start at the begining
[09:26] <tuna> openguru: how?
[09:27] <jllj> OpenGuru, i'm not using apcupsd
[09:27] <tuna> all the howtos I have found were outdated or broken
[09:27] <gordonjcp> Lobinho: neither do I, but it seems like a good place to look
[09:27] <OpenGuru> jllj, ok. Thanks
[09:28] <Lobinho> gordonjcp: ok, thanks for the suggestion- will look around some more
[09:28] <OpenGuru> tuna, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/07/adding-a-startup-script-to-be-run-at-bootup/
[09:28] <tuna> thank you very much
[09:28] <darren> In ubuntu Iam sharing a directory with Windows XP, how do I have it NOT ask for a user/password?
[09:28] <jllj> anyone know of a way to mass convert flac to mp3 ?
[09:28] <__doc__> howdy, I noticed yesterday that watching DVDs on gutsy doesn't work.
[09:29] <__doc__> So I made the usual libdvdcss2 dance and whatnot you could find in an ubuntuguide and on digg
[09:29] <OpenGuru> tuna, welcome
[09:29] <__doc__> but to no avail, whatever I messed it wouldn't start to work.
[09:29] <OpenGuru> jllj, Thanks for the info and bye
[09:29] <__doc__> now from what I've seen around, this problem is endemic, is it not?
[09:29] <mooper> http://rafb.net/p/OhGyDB40.html -why is my ssh doing this?
[09:29] <emaconline> hello.. can anybody help me with mounting a network drive? i get this error: error: unable to open credentials file!"
[09:29] <__doc__> does _anybody_ have a conclusive solution for it?
[09:29] <__doc__> I mean, I could just play back DVDs fine with my edgy
[09:30] <troughton> how do i deactivat wlan0:ava ????
[09:30] <Mohero> is there anywhere I can find out how the IPTables file hould be laid out?
[09:30] <Agent_bob> __doc__ i watch vidios in the console via 'vlc'  perhaps give that a shot ?
[09:30] <Mohero> as I have lines like this in my rules file:
[09:30]  * ffjia is away: Gone away for now.
[09:31] <__doc__> Agent_bob: I did, vlc gets a lot of read errors and then crashes
[09:31] <jllj> __doc__, i did not believe you and am not playing a dvd on gutsy since my installation of it.  its definitely doable
[09:31] <jllj> __doc__, or rather i am playing a dvd on gutsy

[09:31] <[chr0n0s]> dxdt, awn or kiba-dock
[09:31] <Mohero> and I don't know if they're supposed to be there or what...
[09:31] <dxdt> thanks!
[09:31] <darren> How do I get samba to NOT ask for a password when trying to connect to ubuntu share in windows?
[09:31] <__doc__> jllj: what did you need to do in order to make it work?
[09:31] <Mohero> dxdt have a look at "AQvant Window Navigator"
[09:32] <Mohero> dxdt: *Avant
[09:32] <[chr0n0s]> darren, try this make a guest account on linux server with empty password, might work, never tried tho
[09:32] <jllj> __doc__, i have no idea.  i probably followed the instructions from a feisty guide.  perhaps the right package was picked up by medibuntu repo.  i can't say exactly as i get my system ready for anything i throw at it after i install
[09:33] <emaconline> hello.. can anybody help me with mounting a network drive? i get this error: error: unable to open credentials file!"
[09:33] <darren> chr0n0s: I am a newbie, how do I go about doing that?
[09:33] <__doc__> ok, so any pointer on how to remove all the not working software and do the installation of codecs and whatnot from scratch?
[09:34] <[chr0n0s]> darren, need to google
[09:34] <[chr0n0s]> darren, you can use useradd command tho
[09:34] <__doc__> one of the unnerving things is, there's no section in the ubuntuguide for gutsy and DVDs
[09:35] <JimmyDee> __doc__, did you try installling ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[09:35] <troughton> how do i deactivat wlan0:ava ????
[09:35] <__doc__> JimmyDee: nope
[09:36] <JimmyDee> __doc__, while this may or may not be legal in your country it contains all the dvd stuff
[09:36] <__doc__> JimmyDee: I'll try that, thx
[09:37] <dxdt> holy god and goodbye taskbar.  Thanks again those who just helped me!

[09:45] <stefano_> hey guys. i can't reach this one website, however if i boot windows, it opens normally. what is this?
[09:45]  * vietnamchat hi all
[09:45] <jburd> stefano_: Check your DNS settings.
[09:46] <[chr0n0s]> stefano_, which one website ?
[09:46] <stefano_> jburd, i at least think that in ubuntu and windows, the dns is obtained from my router
[09:46] <stefano_> that's www.pokertube.com
[09:46] <jburd> Which browser are you using?
[09:46] <stefano_> firefox
[09:46] <Cristinri> wussup
[09:46] <Cristinri> im a noob to ubuntu
[09:46] <jburd> Does that Website qualify for phishing or any anti-social activities?  Newer versions of firefox have community based filtering.
[09:47] <jburd> Have you tried using another browser?
[09:47] <[chr0n0s]> i can open the site using firefoxxx
[09:47] <jburd> Alright.  It works here as well.
[09:47] <Cristinri> and i seem to be having a bit of a problem.  it seem on my desktop that ubuntu keeps freezing anyone have an idea of why that is?
[09:47] <stefano_> :\ maybe i should try another dns-server
[09:48] <stefano_> Cristinri, i had that to, the problem seemed to come from compiz-fusion
[09:48] <[chr0n0s]> are there any free dns servers ?
[09:48] <jburd> stefano_: It's probably not your DNS server, but you can try these too:  <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:48] <Agent_bob> yes
[09:48] <jburd> [chr0n0s]: Yes.
[09:48] <[chr0n0s]> i heard there are some google servers
[09:48] <jburd> Those are opendns servers.
[09:48] <stefano_> jburd, thank you but i'm located in germany, so us servers would be slow
[09:48] <[chr0n0s]> k
[09:48] <jburd> stefano_: Use a DNS cache.
[09:48] <Cristinri> Stefano_ is there any way to fix that
[09:49] <emaconline> hello.. can anybody help me with mounting a network drive? i get this error: error: unable to open credentials file!"
[09:49] <stefano_> jburd, could you resolv the ip of the website and give it to me, so that i can check if it's really a dns problem?
[09:49] <jburd> Yes.
[09:49] <Cristinri> i mean i love compiz-fusion and i dont overly use it but i do have a lot of the stuff to make my desktop pretty clicked
[09:49] <jburd> Name:   www.pokertube.org
[09:49] <jburd> Address: <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:50] <stefano_> jburd, mh that's strange, it doesnt open
[09:50] <jburd> stefano_: Are you using a proxy server?
[09:50] <stefano_> no
[09:50] <jburd> stefano_: They must have issued an ip range block.
[09:50] <shadowzzz> jburd: It opens for me
[09:51] <jburd> shadowzzz: As does for me.
[09:51] <stefano_> providers in germany sometimes ban websites because they violate some legal terms, but normally those are only adult websites, and pokertube isn't an adult website at all.
[09:51] <jburd> Some Websites have country-based bans.
[09:51] <stefano_> oh wait,
[09:51] <stefano_> it opens well under windows
[09:51] <stefano_> on the same machine
[09:51] <jburd> Ah.  Back to "have you tried another browser?"
[09:52] <stefano_> with the same version of firefox
[09:52] <stefano_> i'm going to try opera quickly, be right back with status report :>
[09:52] <jburd> stefano_: Clear the firefox cache and retry.

[09:57] <jburd> inversekinetix: Windows themes?
[09:57] <inversekinetix> yes
[09:57] <inversekinetix> so it looks like vista
[09:57] <jburd> inversekinetix: You can't display Microsoft Windows themes on Linux.
[09:57] <mysticalzero> why do i always get this message "mount wrong fs type, ...., aren't you trying to mount an extend partition inside?" when trying to double click on a drive?  When i double-click on it, the above message appears. What should i do?
[09:58] <jburd> inversekinetix: Do you wish to make GNOME look like Vista?  (Why would anybody do that?)
[09:58] <arnath> inversekinetix: there are many themes for linux, and i believe some replicate windows look, try searching google
[09:58] <Nallep> inversekinetix: ubuntu can't use windows themes, there are meatcity themes that can try to look like windows, but wont be exactly like windows
[09:58] <inversekinetix> whats meatcity?
[09:58] <Cristinri> yeah
[09:58] <Radio1> What uses port 587.
[09:59] <inversekinetix> is it like turkeytown?

[10:01] <humblerodent> hey....I have just upgraded to 64-bit Ubuntu and can't find the "Restricted extras" in the "Other" under "Add/Remove"
[10:01] <humblerodent> where did it run off to?
[10:01] <humblerodent> TIA
[10:01] <Nel> hello
[10:01] <Agent_bob> arnath only things i would caution you about are don't try to copy /proc or /sys   and use something that will preserve permissions and symlinks
[10:02] <Cristinri> whats the difference between the 32 bit and the 64 bit
[10:02] <arnath> Agent_bob: the rest should work?
[10:02] <Cristinri> im sorry for asking dumb questions
[10:02] <humblerodent> Cristinri, the 64-bit fully utilizes a 64-bit processor
[10:02] <humblerodent> Cristinri, while a 32-bit is more solid, but only uses the potential of a 32-bit processor
[10:02] <Cristinri> so i should switch then huh
[10:02] <humblerodent> and thus is less powerful
[10:02] <Cristinri> oh i c
[10:03] <nbkr> Cristinri, No, there aren't real advantages of the 64bit Version for normal users.
[10:03] <humblerodent> Cristinri, only if you HAVE a 64-bit processor =), and are not afraid of possibly dealing with a few minor issues, like some goofiness with Flash and Java
[10:03] <Nallep> arnath: there's lots of configuration problems that you'll run into, I tried doing that on some test systems recently to see if it would work, and it doesn't work too well, your better off loking into using the packagemanager to create a automatic install
[10:03] <arnath> Cristinri: i wouldn't advise using 64 bit yet
[10:03] <Agent_bob> arnath yeah i clone systems all the time.       oh one other thing   if the fs is not in the same location (hda6 for example) then you will have to adjust fstab and menu.lst accordingly
[10:03] <Cristinri> ok ill stick to the 32 bit
[10:03] <Cristinri> cause i did install the 64 bit and couldnt do too much
[10:03] <Cristinri> with the JAVA and what not
[10:04] <humblerodent> arnath / nbkr: do you know the solution to my problem, by chance?  I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the fact that I'm on 64-bit now
[10:04] <pwuertz> hi... when installing/removing packages... the processes "Reading Database" and "running ldconfig" take an awful lot of time... is there some way to improve the performance of the package manager? is this some kind of fragmentation problem?
[10:04] <nbkr> humblerodent, What is you problem. I joined just recently.
[10:04] <arnath> humblerodent: i've never actually used the 64 bit one, i've just heard a lot of people having problems with it :p
[10:04] <humblerodent> arnath / nbkr: but I enabled all the repositories, updated the lists, and can't find it
[10:04] <Cristinri> umm i also have the problem of ubuntu freezing on me, anyone have any clues on why that might be?
[10:04] <humblerodent> nbkr: oh sorry, problem is this:
 hey....I have just upgraded to 64-bit Ubuntu and can't find the "Restricted extras" in the "Other" under "Add/Remove"
 where did it run off to?
[10:05] <kazim59> If I compile a new kernel (2.6.23) on my ubuntu machine and use it to boot ubuntu, will it break?
[10:05] <stefano_> jburd, i installed opera, it doesnt open the site either :(
[10:05] <nbkr> Is the restricted repository activeted in /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[10:05] <hubuntu> hello everybody! Is compiz a little bit inestable still in general or does it depend in which hardware you are using it? (I had not problem when used on an Intel card, but with the Nvidia update it works nicely, but it's not as tsbale...)
[10:06] <humblerodent> nbkr: yes, everything but backports that is
[10:06] <arnath> hubuntu: it's been stable for me eversince beta ended
[10:06] <stefano_> jburd, i also changed the dns servers, still.
[10:06] <hubuntu> arnath: are you using a nvidia card?
[10:06] <arnath> hubuntu: yes 8600gts
[10:06] <humblerodent> hubuntu, Compiz seems stable but still buggy as not perfect....it will cause tearing of video watching, for example, in my experience
[10:07] <hubuntu> (i hva e an older on Gforce4 440 GO)
[10:07] <Irreducibilis> is it normal to be getting speeds of 500 BYTES a second on 56k?
[10:07] <arnath> hubuntu: not sure, but it should work, but you could always turn it off if its too buggy
[10:07] <nbkr> humblerodent,  What does apt-get update produce then? Any errormessages?
[10:08] <hubuntu> arnath: video watching is not a problem... I installed the GL destop extra feature (as the built in defaults in gutsy are cool, but I like tweaking myself) and this seems to be the reason...
[10:08] <humblerodent> nbkr, nope, all good and everything is fully updated.
[10:08] <alecwh> Hello! I have a pamphlet due in about 3 hours, and I haven't even started yet... I'm in OpenOffice, and I have to "rotate" the page 90 degrees. How do I do this?
[10:08] <hubuntu> arnath: I just reacted to the fact that it was working flawlessly with the intel card...
[10:09] <humblerodent> alecwh, such a slacker :P
[10:09] <arnath> hubuntu: don't know what to tell you m8 :p works here :)
[10:09] <hubuntu> Has gutsy become a little bit heavier to run? I noticed a big change from feisty...
[10:09] <alecwh> humblerodent: It's 4 AM. I got up early to do it. >_>
[10:09] <nbkr> alecwh, Format -> Pagesettings -> Landscape
[10:10] <nbkr> humblerodent, Then it is maybe just a problem with the gui. Try to install whatever you want via apt-get install on console.
[10:10] <hubuntu> I mean the GUI part (GNOME takes ages after log-in), upstart & usplash still in good shape...
[10:11] <alecwh> nbkr: I don't see pagesetting
[10:11] <humblerodent> nbkr, yeah, that obvious thought occurred to me just now =) I feel like a n00b :P
[10:11] <humblerodent> nbkr, works there lol
[10:11] <humblerodent> nbkr, wonder what's wrong with the GUI
[10:11] <effeietsanders> yow all, I installed yesterday ubuntu 6.06, but apperently it is better to install 7.10. However, I am experiencing some problems now witht he boot disk of 7.10 . I burned one myself. With some tweaks I am able to get the basic screen where i can choose to install, check the CD for errors etc. However, if I choose install, it finally gives a black screen with white letters only, where the...
[10:11] <effeietsanders> ...only thing I can do is typing some apperently linux commands, which are totally not clear to me...
[10:11] <nbkr> alecwh, Maybe its labeled different in english. I have only the german version here. Its the 5 item from the top in the "Format" menu.
[10:12] <effeietsanders> could anyone help me how I can move on from that screen?
[10:13] <humblerodent> effeietsanders, did you get any error messages or anything?
[10:13] <alecwh> nbkr, I did that, and it took me to a popup screen. I went to Page, and then Orientation, switched to Landscape. It doesn't seem... right... though.
[10:13] <effeietsanders> humblerodent: no
[10:13] <alecwh> It looks too squareish, not like a piece of paper.
[10:13] <alecwh> It doesn't look flipped
[10:13] <alecwh> transformed.
[10:13] <humblerodent> effeietsanders, odd, sounds like it just took you to a shell
[10:13] <humblerodent> =S
[10:13] <humblerodent> alecwh, it's flipped.
[10:14] <humblerodent> alecwh, optical illusion probably =) maybe having to do with the shape of it in relation to your monitor screen ;)
[10:14] <nbkr> alecwh, Try the print preview - it should look more flipped there.
[10:14] <Agent_bob> effeietsanders i guess you didn't tweek it correctly befor you burned it...
[10:14] <effeietsanders> it was starting the linux kernal, got a graphic blue bar indicating progress, then it went to an organge indicator, for a while, trying to read my floppy disk, and then it came there
[10:14] <alecwh> not really nbkr...
[10:14] <effeietsanders> Agent_bob: i downloaded it from the ubuntu website, and installed it with an iso buner or so
[10:14] <Biju> Can I install Windows XP over my Current Ubuntu install and keep my Ubuntu working? (Dual boot ?) Ubuntu is installed on my Sata drive which is sda I think and I would like to install Windows on my IDE which is hdb.
[10:15] <effeietsanders> (burned in windows XP)
[10:15] <nbkr> alecwh, Pageformat is letter or A4? Then it is flipped. Try printing one page.
[10:15] <effeietsanders> is there a manual how to proceed if you came in that shell?
[10:15] <alecwh> nbkr: I don't have a printer. It's at my school. :P I'll export to PDF
[10:16] <knoppix_odin> hallo
[10:16] <eljak> Biju, it is possible but you have to reinstall grub again and configure it to have windows and ubuntu in the menu
[10:16] <nbkr> alecwh, Being at school at 4 am - thats horrable.
[10:16] <pippi\> hi to all.I need to reinstall ubuntu on my laptop.I have 7.04 burned on cd.Is it better to install directly 7.10,install 7.04 and upgrade to 7.10 or it's the same ? thanks
[10:16] <knoppix_odin> I need help
[10:16] <alecwh> nbkr, I'm at my home right now. >_>
[10:16] <nbkr> knoppix_odin, Just ask your question.
[10:17] <knoppix_odin> can you help me on gremany
[10:17] <Biju> eljak, Is the command grub-install /dev/sda from the live cd?
  I burned one myself. With some tweaks I am able to get the... <<< if you altered the install cd then it's your software, not ubuntu's   </shrugs>
[10:17] <nbkr> alecwh, So the printer is in school. Thats ok then :-)
[10:17] <effeietsanders> i did not alter the cd
[10:17] <sander_> pippi\: I would recommend 7.10
[10:17] <nbkr> knoppix_odin, Es gibt einen deutschsprachigen Ubuntu Channel: #ubuntu-de

[10:17] <knoppix_odin> ich brauche hilfe
[10:17] <MilitantPotato> In synaptic, what is Installed (Auto-removeable) mean?
[10:17] <effeietsanders> sorry for the wrong temrinology
[10:18] <pippi\> sander,thanks,do you mean to burn a new 7.10 iso and install it ?
[10:18] <alecwh> there is no way that's right,
[10:18] <alecwh> i must be doing it wrong
[10:18] <Agent_bob> effeietsanders ok.  sorry for not being able to stand under you,   english is hard language.  no?
[10:18] <ootm> how can i list the UUID's of my drives from the commandline? ( I need to cut and paste some uuids into /etc/fstab)

[10:19] <Biju> Thank you :)
[10:19] <nbkr> knoppix_odin, Was für einen Chatclient verwendest Du?
[10:19] <MilitantPotato> jaco: you need to add an IRC account first though, and make sure it's connected.
[10:19] <knoppix_odin> KA IRC das ist ne knoppix version!

[10:20] <nbkr> knoppix_odin, Gib mal "/j #ubuntu-de" ein (ohne die Anführungszeichen).
[10:20] <knoppix_odin> jo danke das ging diesmal
[10:20] <sander_> alecwh: Format->Page->Page->Orientation
[10:20] <nbkr> alecwh, Can you put the PDF anywhere, so that I can have a look?
[10:20] <novato_br> buddies, i'd like to know how is it internet conections ? do you reach full speed conection?
[10:21] <alecwh> sander_: I did that, but it doesn't look right
[10:21] <alecwh> sander_: too square
[10:21] <alecwh> nbkr: yes, one sec.
[10:21] <sander_> alecwh: change the paper format?
[10:21] <alecwh> it's at letter
[10:21] <sander_> letter->a4 for instance
[10:21] <novato_br> here, we have been stolen

[10:22] <effeietsanders> anyone a clue on how to move on once I got (probably) into a shell during installation?
[10:22] <Agent_bob> novato_br yeah full speed here....     "dialup"     :)))

[10:22] <MilitantPotato> whoa
[10:22] <alecwh> a regular paper size
[10:22] <alecwh> the paper you buy at office max
[10:23] <alecwh> for most printers
[10:23] <alecwh> the default one
[10:23] <novato_br> Agent_bob, dialup?
[10:23] <novato_br> what, Agent_bob ?
[10:23] <sander_> alecwh: dude I don't even know office max :)
[10:23] <novato_br> do you use dial up conection?
[10:23] <sander_> I use a4 over here (the netherlands)
[10:23] <Agent_bob> novato_br my internet connection is dialup
[10:23] <novato_br> Agent_bob, i'm so sorry.
[10:23] <nbkr> alecwh, Well, for most printers is a bit difficult. Most printers in Europe use A4 Paper. Most printers in the USA use Letter-Format I think.
[10:23] <alecwh> letter
[10:23] <alecwh> yes
[10:23] <alecwh> letter
[10:23] <novato_br> Agent_bob, it's sad.
[10:23] <novato_br> where are you from, Agent_bob ?
[10:24] <Agent_bob> novato_br but i'm moving files at  9.7MB/s  with scp
[10:24] <MSchoenitzer> Hi! Is
[10:24] <novato_br> scp ? what is it?
 that makes sense now you say it. It exlains why we always have to change the defualt settings to A4
[10:24] <calvary> I always used to thing A4 was the default everywhere :)
[10:25] <Agent_bob>  novato_br part of he ssh package
[10:25] <novato_br> i need FULL speed conection! I need high speed conection
[10:25] <novato_br> in here, it's sucks
[10:25] <MSchoenitzer> sry, pressed the wrong key...
[10:25] <sander_> effeietsanders: possibly?
[10:25] <alecwh> http://alecwh.com/meh.pdf
[10:25] <novato_br> but do you download at 9.7MB/s on local network, right?
[10:25] <alecwh> nbkr
[10:26] <effeietsanders> sander_: It was what was suggested by humblerodent
[10:26] <nbkr> calvary, Yes unfortunately there is more then one standard. But you shouldn't have to change the page size to a4 every time, just once and everything should be fine. Maybe its a bug if you have to change it always. I had some similar problems with ubuntu 6.10
[10:26] <wackimonki> hi guys
[10:26] <effeietsanders> sander_: during installation, i get into a black screen with white letters, where is suggested that i can get the commands by typing "help"
[10:26] <combinio> why if i'm pressing CTRL+X and later CTRL+V buttons it is copy&paste icons and not cut&paste ? (kub-7.04)
[10:26] <wackimonki> i would like to script my consoles to up multiple windows, and cd into multiple directories. does anyone know how this can be done?
[10:27] <wackimonki> i'm using gnome terminal
[10:27] <wackimonki> up = open up
[10:27] <alecwh> nbkr: did you get the pdf?
[10:28] <calvary> I wanted to ask about softwate. On windows I use a program called URL snooper that tells me exactly what is going through my computer. When I looked at my repository it has so many alternatives that I don't know which is the best sniffer. Rather than try them all and see (I'm tight for HD space) I wanted a recommendation.
[10:28] <achadwick> wackimonki: you could investigate screen, a console-based multiplexor for terminals.
[10:28] <calvary> nbkr: actually it's mainly on winodws that problem occurs for me. On this system it was set correctly at the installation
[10:28] <calvary> I presumed that happened when I chose the UK kb layout
[10:29] <MSchoenitzer> I need to download some Ubuntu-Packages (for 	Gutsy Gibbon) form a NON-Ubuntu PC (fedora) is there any Webfrontend for the Ubuntu-repositories?
[10:29] <alecwh> arg!
[10:29] <wackimonki> achadwick, i like tabbing in gnome terminal and would like to stick to it. i should check out their website actually
[10:29] <Agent_bob> achadwick you like screen ?
[10:29] <achadwick> Another possibility is powershell. Agent_bob: love it.
[10:30] <achadwick> Or multi-gnome-terminal.
[10:30] <MSchoenitzer> I need to download some Ubuntu-Packages (for 	Gutsy Gibbon) form a NON-Ubuntu PC (fedora) is there any Webfrontend for the Ubuntu-repositories?
[10:31] <calvary> I've just realised I'm in the wrong channel (I'm using Debian) Mind you a lot of the recommendations will work anyway. It seems to me that Debian works much like Ubuntu - it's just smaller.
[10:31] <miss^l0t3k> hi. i want to change default yucky brown colored screen that shows after I login, until the desktop loads. i set it to black in gdmsetup, and also set the color behind the wallpaper, anyone know where to change this screen?
[10:31] <Tomcat_> MSchoenitzer: packages.ubuntu.com
[10:31] <inversekinetix> i need to get mame working , anyone use it?
[10:31] <nbkr> alecwh, Yes, I did. Gnome says its: 279 x 216 mm - Thats letter format and landscape (also gnome says its portrait), so I would assume that everything is fine.

[10:32] <MSchoenitzer> Tomcat_: wow - Thanks a lot!
[10:32] <achadwick> inversekinetix: what problems are you seeing?
[10:32] <miss^l0t3k> thanks achadwick but that gdmsetup and i set it black there, this setting is somewhere else i guess
[10:32] <miss^l0t3k> that is*
[10:32] <nbkr> unique, You'll need the correct codecs installed, the correct browser plugins and the page doesn't have to use drm.
[10:32] <inversekinetix> achadwick: most of the games wont work
[10:32] <calvary> I'll have to look at where I saw it sharkp - you mean Deb Etch don't you?
[10:33] <calvary> I did hear there are probls with the newer systems Lenny isn't it?
[10:33] <calvary> Hang on I'll look
[10:33] <Krohnen> Hi all! I have a problem since I installed 7.10. Actually, even when I simply boot the installer CD-ROM, the background is all 1280x1024, but the bottom bar (with the trash and virtual displays etc) are halfway up the screen. I think X sees this as 128x1024 (correct) but something else sees this as a 1024x768 screen. In previous versions it worked fine. I tried both ubuntu as well as kubuntu. Same problem. Any ideas?
[10:33] <achadwick> inversekinetix: you need the ROM files. Ubuntu can't distribute those.
[10:33] <alecwh> nbkr. ok, I'll have to deal with it, I SWEAR it's messed up though. >_>
[10:34] <alecwh> URG! Desktop Publishing sucks with linux
[10:34] <Lllama> Anyone know why my xorg.conf is being overwritten on reboot?
[10:34] <unique> mbkr, for firefox were i can find the codec?
[10:34] <inversekinetix> achadwick: i have ALL the roms 1.20u1  its the mame sdl that is old, i need to use sdl 1.20, i managed to get it installed but i need a front end for it
[10:35] <DkidPT> hi
[10:35] <m4jkl> hi there
[10:35] <calvary> Ah you might not like them nbkr they seem to be KDE dependent
[10:35] <nbkr> unique, Firefox doesn't need that codec. Its the plugin that needs the codec. So it depends on the plugin you're using (and the codec of course).
[10:36] <calvary> Looking now there is kwlan and wpagui
[10:36] <Krohnen> I have a latop that I use as a desktop. The screen is broken on it, so I attached a monitor to it as the primary (only) display.
[10:36] <calvary> But even the second one seems to need lots of KDE libraries
[10:36] <nbkr> calvary, Pardon, I didn't get the meaning of: Ah you might not like them nbkr they seem to be KDE dependent
[10:36] <achadwick> inversekinetix: I ended up rolling my own that shoves icons into the GNOME games menu. That's really all the frontend you need, but I also gave gnome-video-arcade a little try. Didn't work.
[10:36] <cmakenewbie> how can I get tracker to remove stuff it has indexed if I no longer want it to index those things? I have removed the folders that contain the indexed stuff from its search list, but it still displays things from there in the search results
[10:37] <miss^l0t3k> hi. i want to change default yucky brown colored screen that shows after I login, until the desktop loads. i set it to black in gdmsetup, and also set the color behind the wallpaper, anyone know where to change this screen?
[10:37] <calvary> Well it's just I've noticed KDE libraries often seem to be very space comsuming
[10:37] <unique> i don't have plugin for firefox how you can suggest to me
[10:37] <g[r]eek> hi - i created a dummy user called guest with home folder (on my dedicated server) so that i can share a file with a friend via ftp. but if he logs into the guest account, he is able to read files outside of the guest directory, such as important config files with passwords and stuff
[10:37] <calvary> But I have very little space
[10:37] <g[r]eek> is there an easy way to force the guest account to only be able to be in the guest folder during a ftp session?
[10:37] <calvary> I was being very subjective there :)
[10:37] <g[r]eek> otherwise i have to go and remove read access on so many files...
[10:37] <inversekinetix> achadwick:  I have ALL the artwork for mame, i want to use it in a front end
[10:37] <NET||abuse> Hi all,, does anyone know how i can specify a video output driver for totem, like under vlc i can select XV or X11 or OpenGL or whatever,, i want to set totem to use x11 so it'll play nicely with compiz
[10:38] <Punker> rg
[10:38] <Agent_bob> Krohnen what driver ?
[10:38] <eljak> miss^l0t3k, i think it is called splash screen
[10:38] <qwerty121> hi! there any way to remove the icons of the mounted filesystems from the desktop?
[10:39] <Krohnen> It is an ATI-based laptop
[10:39] <inversekinetix> qwerty just unmount them
[10:39] <Krohnen> so the standard ATI driver
[10:39] <NET||abuse> qwerty121, restart a few times, they go away eventually :) bit of a weird bug though yeh, It's a bit annoying at times
[10:39] <toporow> witam
 I can say kwlan worked fine on my Mandriva portable - that's the only experience I have of using it - sorry I haven't actally used it on a rellevant system - but I see no reason it shouldn't work on Etch
[10:39] <miss^l0t3k> eljak, ok i disabled that splash screen thing somehow a while back, with the icon thingys that show one by one, but there is still the ugly brown background, any idea how 2 change it?
[10:39] <Agent_bob> Krohnen might try  vesa   and see what it does.
[10:39] <Cyber_Studyin> i dont have a splash screen at startup anymore :(
[10:40] <Cyber_Stalker> ive got that annoying bug that tunes "loading startup scripts" and it hangs
[10:40] <Agent_bob> Krohnen if you use the propritary driver, then i sujest you consult the    ati   infonode
[10:40] <Cyber_Stalker> then you have to hit alt F1 for a prompt to log in
[10:40] <qwerty121> NET||abuse: your solution won't work for sure. :P
[10:40] <achadwick> inversekinetix: I can't really recommend any because I don't use them. Assume you have sdlmame set up correctly with the right directory layout and a properly configured mamerc somewhere. Most frontends should pick up on that. Google, I suppose.
[10:40] <kbrooks> miss^l0t3k, change the login screen background, and then change your desktop background to that
[10:41] <Cyber_Stalker> kbrooks: any idea's on how to solve my issue?
[10:41] <kbrooks> miss^l0t3k, system > administration > login screen
[10:41] <inversekinetix> achadwick:  i dont know where it put the mame cfg file
[10:41] <miss^l0t3k> kbrooks, huh? i did set it to black in gdmsetup but it shows a brown one in between login and the desktop loading
[10:42] <miss^l0t3k> system>administration>login screen == gdmsetup
[10:42] <kbrooks> miss^l0t3k, really? cant help here
[10:42] <miss^l0t3k> kbrooks, okey thanks 8-]
[10:42] <hairulfr> Hey, just installed 7.10 and looking good, but how do I tweak all the nice little things in Compiz (or wth it's called now) Can I activate the old interface somehow?
[10:43] <miss^l0t3k> hairulfr, install the compiz config thingo
[10:43] <miss^l0t3k> hairulfr, in the repos
[10:43] <hairulfr> miss^l0t3k: Thanks a bunch :) Almost cried when I saw the setup options Cheers miss^l0t3k
[10:44] <miss^l0t3k> np
[10:44] <TomB_> compiz-config-settings or something, no?
[10:44] <achadwick> inversekinetix: the old xmame packaes used /etc/xmame/xmamerc and a local copy in your $HOME/.xmame/xmamerc . Assume sdlmame is something like that; that said, I get by with the Debian xmame-sdl packages.
[10:44] <eljak> miss^l0t3k, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[10:44] <Fido> hey,how to usr "tar" command?
[10:44] <TomB_> anyway, just dumped compiz
[10:44] <miss^l0t3k> compizconfig-settings-manager hairulfr
[10:44] <Agent_bob> fido man tar
[10:44] <Fido> thanks Bob
[10:45] <unique> Hi all, why the image and the character on my desktop are not clear?
[10:45] <Agent_bob> then when you can't understand that.   ask in here.
[10:45] <inversekinetix> achadwick:  xmame is way outdated, i dont have enough space to move 80GB of roms to my linux drive, i need to modify the paths manually
[10:45] <Krohnen> Agent_bob: I can try VESA, but since I see this problem even when I boot it off the install-media, it doesn't seem to me to be a prop-driver issue.
[10:46] <TomB_> Now I have a weird problem; when removing compiz/emerald Metacity won't load automatically when I login to Gnome
[10:46] <TomB_> Kwin works ok in KDE
[10:46] <Agent_bob> Krohnen ah yeah     well,  it's not the monitor is it ?     have another monitor you can test ?
[10:46] <Krohnen> Also, X seems to work fine... I can move a window around one the whole desktop, but if I maximize it, for example -it will maximize to the 1024x768 top left part of the screen.
[10:47] <Krohnen> Agent_bob: Big brown background on the wole 1028x1024 screen. Monitor is all right.
[10:47] <achadwick> inversekinetix: try looking in the files I mentioned, substituting "sdl" for "x". I'm assuming you're using something like http://wallyweek.altervista.org/
[10:48] <Krohnen> Agent_bob: I think that 7.10 uses the resolution of the laptop-screen (1024x760) and applies it on the window-manager on the 1280x1024 external screen..
[10:48] <hairulfr> One more: What's the name and placement of the conf file I need to edit to customize resolution?
[10:48] <Radio1> How do you set evolution mail to port 587..there are no port settings.
[10:48] <achadwick> inversekinetix: copy the master *mamerc to your home in the place where sdlmame expects it to be. Modify that copy with  text editor.
[10:49] <chesterm_> hi
[10:49] <Tomcat_> Radio1: Add ":587" to the host name.
[10:49] <Radio1> ah..ok..t/y
[10:49] <osl> i got this error pxe-E38  TFTP cannot open connection , what could be done to solve it ?
[10:49] <user_china> hello
[10:49] <chesterm_> can anybody help me?? i have a ati radeon mobility 9200, i can't use the advanced desktop effects
[10:50] <Agent_bob> Krohnen if that was all it was   then it would be a simple rezolution change.  i.e. the monitor would be displaying in 1024x768      it sounds more like a vertual resolution issue    check in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf for a "vertual"   setting
[10:50] <inversekinetix> achadwick: thanks, i just tried modifying it but it tells me im not authorized to make changes to the file, Im getting tired of all this b.s
[10:51] <inversekinetix> this is worse than vista, i have to enter passwords to do anything
[10:51] <inversekinetix> cant modify any files in the file system
[10:51] <musikgoat> does evolution have an alarm clock?
[10:51] <hairulfr> omg, I'm amazed at how far everything has come! So structured and nice, kudos!
[10:51] <achadwick> inversekinetix: you copied the file to your home, right? You can edit that.
[10:52] <hairulfr> inversekinetix: sudo / kdesu?
[10:52] <inversekinetix> will that unlock my file system
[10:52] <Cyber_Stalker> when you install a package with apt-get where does it download the archive to? i would like to remove one of the archives downloaded and reinstall it
[10:52] <hairulfr> inversekinetix: NTFS?
[10:52] <inversekinetix> no the file system that linux is on. ext-3
[10:52] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: You type uninstall instad, i guess
[10:52] <achadwick> No, it just makes you wear a hat that lets you get things done for a bit.
[10:53] <inversekinetix> i want to be able to modify my files without letting it me edit them and tell me when i try and save it that im not allowed to
[10:53] <Cyber_Stalker> no hairulfr uninstall does not remove the downloaded deb
[10:53] <hairulfr> inversekinetix: Which fiels are you on about?
[10:53] <SNy> inversekinetix: If you copied the file as root, it belongs to root.
[10:53] <achadwick> inversekinetix: it's done that way for basic system security reasons.
[10:53] <achadwick> SNy has spotted the flaw in my instructions :/
[10:54] <SNy> You'd need to change ownership with 'sudo chown $user:$group $file'
[10:54] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: Well think a bit then, man! It's simple, apt-get remove perhaps??
[10:54] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: :)
[10:54] <inversekinetix> i dont want to go through that everytime I need to edit a file, how do i remove that restriction permanently
[10:54] <SNy> achadwick: I haven't even read  your instructions. o.O
[10:55] <hairulfr> inversekinetix: You screwed up somewhere along the line, now ur paying for it, which files do you need to edit?
[10:55] <Cyber_Stalker> hairulfr: that still doesnt remove the deb
[10:55] <Cyber_Stalker> ..........
[10:55] <tuna> inversekinetix: you do not. unix is a multi.user system, and system files belong to root, not you
[10:55] <Cyber_Stalker> inversekinetix: dont copy files as root and you will be ok
[10:56] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: Purge????
[10:56] <inversekinetix> the files were installed by synaptic
[10:56] <Cyber_Stalker> hmm
[10:56] <qwerty122> hi! after unintstalling programs from wine. the logo's and shortcuts are still there. how to remove them?
[10:56] <Cyber_Stalker> hairulfr: i dnt remember purge actually getting rid of it
[10:56] <inversekinetix> i cannot edit any file that is in the file system
[10:56] <staykovmarin> hi i am using ubuntu with gnome, is there a way to change the default file browser?
[10:56] <Cyber_Stalker> inversekinetix: wtf did you do?
[10:57] <qwerty122> staykovmarin: check out http://gnome-hacks.org
[10:57] <tuna> inversekinetix: ...but if you want to be sneaky and unsafe, might I suggest "sudo nautilus" (oh am i so gonna be whipped for this one)
[10:57] <Cyber_Stalker> lol tuna whats wrong with sudo nautilus?
[10:57] <inversekinetix> nothing, i installed this OS and i cannot edit any files that are in the root directory, only things in my home folder and media drives
[10:57] <staykovmarin> qwerty122: thank you, i will
[10:57] <Cyber_Stalker> inversekinetix: you fool thats because it belongs to root
[10:57] <Cyber_Stalker> not you
[10:58] <Cyber_Stalker> its ment to be like that
[10:58] <Cyber_Stalker> .
[10:58] <qwerty122> hi! after unintstalling programs from wine. the logo's and shortcuts are still there. how to remove them?
[10:58] <Biju> Is it possible to synch my Nokia 6681 with any program in Ubuntu gutsy as I did with outlook?
[10:58] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: Try from synaptic, it has some options too
[10:58] <tuna> inversekinetix: that's kinda how it's supposed to be by default. It's called security
[10:58] <inversekinetix> qwerty Ive been asking this question for a week, no one can answer
[10:58] <SNy> inversekinetix: That's why achadwick suggested you copy over the mamerc file to your home.
[10:58] <Cyber_Stalker> lol hairulfr tried that :D
[10:58] <inversekinetix> tuna its called a pain in the ass,
[10:58] <SNy> Preferably in a way that it belongs to you.
[10:58] <tuna> inversekinetix: when you NEED to do it, run nautilus as sudo
[10:58] <qwerty122> inversekinetix: and what's that, btw?
[10:59] <qwerty122> inversekinetix: the same as mine?
[10:59] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: apt-get remove xxx should do it,
[10:59] <inversekinetix> SNy copy it over and then what, edit it and then copy it back to the folder it was in before?
[10:59] <tuna> inversekinetix: when all the executable programs are untouchable by the main user, stuff like email worms become pretty much impossible
[10:59] <SNy> No, leave it there.
[10:59] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: If not --purge
[10:59] <Cyber_Stalker> hairulfr: nope when i reinstalled after that it doesnt download the package again :(
[10:59] <SNy> It will then be used instead of the master one.
[10:59] <SNy> That is the idea.
[10:59] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: If not --pruge remove
[10:59] <SNy> Master config overridden by user config.
[10:59] <Cyber_Stalker> eish lol
[10:59] <SNy> That's how things work in unices.
[11:00] <Cyber_Stalker> purge remove looks nice hairulfr  :D
[11:00] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker: Apt-get install reinstall then  --purge?
[11:00] <inversekinetix> so how will it find all the paths that were dependent on its original location?
[11:00] <Cyber_Stalker> hairulfr: i did a purge and then tried to install again earlyer
[11:00] <inversekinetix> paths are irrelevent in linux? i can put a file anywhere and it will work?
[11:00] <tuna> inversekinetix: just to elaborate, nautilus is the file manager, if you launch that from terminal with "sudo nautilus", you getto edit files freely
[11:00] <SNy> You just copy the configuration file, not the program.
[11:00] <Biju> Does anyone Synch their Mobile Phones with Ubuntu Gutsy at all ?
[11:01] <hairulfr> Cyber_Stalker:  sudo apt-get --reinstall install ?
[11:01] <inversekinetix> so how will the program know to use the config file thats not in the location its supposed to be in?
[11:01] <SNy> inversekinetix: Huh? No. The user config file has a specific place, too, of course.
[11:01] <SNy> $HOME/$file.
[11:01] <HarleyQuine> hi everyone, I was having some probs yesterday and did a memory check using ubuntu's live cd and it threw up errors, just want to know whether this means my RAM is broken or what? My laptop's not even a year old yet so I should send it back in for guarantee.. can anyone help?
[11:02] <inversekinetix> i dont understand what you mean
[11:02] <SNy> Where $file could be something like .bashrc or somesuch.
[11:02] <SNy> THe appropriate program will know that it should look in your $HOME first.
[11:02] <SNy> Only then will it attempt to use the master config in /etc or wherever.
[11:02] <zx80> inversekinetix: it's dead simple. a normal user should not do administrative tasks. that's what sudo (root privileges) are for. you only need root privs to change _system wide_ settings. per user settings (files and directories beginning with a "." in your home dir) can be changed without root privs of course.
[11:02] <miss^l0t3k> HarleyQuine, i'd say run memtest once more to be sure, then send it back
[11:02] <Cyber_Stalker> hairulfr: have you installed mysql before?
[11:03] <Cyber_Stalker> hairulfr: i have an error for you, the one im trying to resolve
[11:03] <HarleyQuine> okey dokey.. so a healthy system would have 0 errors yeah?
[11:03] <caligarn1037> does anybody know where to get the solution to the azureus (splash but instant crash) problem on gutsy?
[11:03] <miss^l0t3k> HarleyQuine, yer
[11:03] <HarleyQuine> alright :) thanks a lot
[11:03] <Cyber_Stalker> hairulfr: http://rafb.net/p/jwT5RJ47.html <[11:04] <valehru> hey guys, when creating a new user from the console, is there anyway to jail them to the their home directory?
[11:05] <CrocoJet> good morning everyone
[11:05] <CrocoJet> I was reading this article " Ubuntu May Be Killing Your Laptop's Hard Drive"
[11:05] <inversekinetix> i need to edit this file /etc/sdlmame/sdlmame.ini            the executable is expecting to find the file in /etc/sdlmame   if i put a modified copy elsewhere in my dir how will the execuatble know to use the modified file instead of the one its supposed to use?
[11:05] <CrocoJet> http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/10/30/1742258
[11:05] <Krohnen> Agent_bob: I just booted it up with the Feisty Kubuntu install CD, and in Feisty all is okay. This is definately a bug with gutsy, then. I wonder if there is an open ticket for it... It's been screwed all since I upgraded from Feisty. I will look for the virtual-resolution stuff that you mentioned when I boot back into what's on the harddisk..
[11:06] <CrocoJet> any kind of problem for desktop hd also ?
[11:06] <Cyber_Stalker> how can i change the icon in the far left hand corner of my terminal?
[11:06] <zx80> inversekinetix: i guess sdlmame also looks for a per user config file in your home dir. but i don't know sdlmame, so i'm not 100% sure.
[11:06] <Cyber_Stalker> far top left, the little ubuntu icon, i would like to change it to an animated gif

[11:09] <Angel-SL> i
[11:09] <SNy> inversekinetix: Most programs do also have a command line parameter to tell them where a config file should be taken from.
[11:09] <EliasAmaral> thank you Agent_bob =)
[11:09] <inversekinetix> SNy i wanna use my computer, no study it
[11:09] <Cyber_Stalker> inversekinetix: it would be fine if you knew how to use it
[11:09] <SNy> inversekinetix: Well, you need to if you wanna use linux.
[11:09] <Cyber_Stalker> i was exactly the same as you when i started back in the day
[11:09] <inversekinetix> so its not ready as a desktop then>?
[11:10] <SNy> At least a bit of knowledge is necessary.
[11:10] <Cyber_Stalker> no it is
[11:10] <Cyber_Stalker> its not noob friendly
[11:10] <inversekinetix> i was expecting it to be usuable
[11:10] <Cyber_Stalker> it is usuable
[11:10] <SNy> Oh, it is.
[11:10] <Agent_bob> inversekinetix that's right.  it's not even close to ready for prime time.
[11:10] <Cyber_Stalker> not noob friendly... if you duno wtf ure doing ure gonna hate it
[11:10] <Agent_bob> ahh  but neither is windows
[11:11] <inversekinetix> hmmm, all i want to do is edit an ini file, i cant
[11:11] <steven_> hi, my resolution in gdm login screen is wrong (sometihng like 800x600 or 640x480) and everything is stretched cause i'm on a wirescreen monitor... when logged in the resolution goes right to 1920x1200
[11:11] <inversekinetix> i have to piss about changing permissions or do it through terminal
[11:11] <Cyber_Stalker> inversekinetix: "sudo gedit /path/to/ini"
[11:12] <Cyber_Stalker> inversekinetix: "sudo gedit /path/to/ini/.ini" try that n see
[11:12] <Agent_bob> Cyber_Stalker being an ini file it's probably in ntfs space...
[11:12] <inversekinetix> how do i remove all restrictions, do i have to log in as root?
[11:12] <hairulfr> Agent_bob: LOL
[11:12] <hairulfr> inversekinetix: sudo
[11:13] <inversekinetix> that will remove all restrictions?
[11:13] <Agent_bob> no
[11:13] <hairulfr> inversekinetix: For the given action, and no, kdesu
[11:13] <Agent_bob> things mounted readonly will still be read only   no mater who you are.
[11:13] <Cyber_Stalker> Agent_bob: i dont think its read only tho
[11:13] <inversekinetix> Agent Bob its a file on ext3
[11:13] <Cyber_Stalker> its not on ntfs its his linux install
[11:14] <Agent_bob> maybe not.   we'll see

[11:17] <inversekinetix> cant remove usb drives without errors
[11:17] <Agent_bob> inversekinetix short story is simply this.   if the file isn't in your users home dir   you will need permission to mess with it.   that's one reason linux doesn't catch cold.

[11:22] <brade1> I found this and was able to fixed it as follow:
[11:22] <brade1> 1/ update the default kernel options into /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:22] <brade1> kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-genericroot=UUID=0baea18f-2277-494d-8c62-95c4fcbdef86 ro quiet splashpci=assign-busses acpi=off noapic nolapic irqpoll=noacpi
[11:22] <brade1> 2/ reconfigure the alsa module even if you already reinstalled it
[11:22] <brade1> cd /usr/src
[11:22] <brade1> sudo module-assistant update
[11:22] <miss^l0t3k> lol, inversekinetix i do not need some lame trash from kiddyoverclocking site to know that i like nix much better than wind0ze, but each to their own :)
[11:22] <brade1> sudo module-assistant prepare
[11:22] <brade1> sudo module-assistant auto-install alsa
[11:22] <brade1> sudo shutdown -r now
[11:22] <brade1> ??
[11:22] <WirelessEuphoria> my wireless does not seem to want to obtain an IP automatically. It tries to, but fails to every time on any AP I've tried it with. How do I resolve this issue?
[11:22] <Nallep> inversekinetix: if you want to add a shortcut to startup gedit in super user mode, add a new menu item to your applications with the command "gksudo gedit"
[11:22] <WirelessEuphoria> besides static declaration
[11:23] <Agent_bob> ha i just found a bug in an installer.   the mouse cursor will move behind some of the buttons   lol
[11:23] <Nallep> inversekinetic: then whenever you want tot edit a system file, you can use that to edit it easily
[11:23] <Agent_bob> or maybe it's a feature
[11:23] <achadwick> "an installer" - what installer?
[11:24] <Agent_bob> achadwick what ever mandrake uses
[11:24] <necrite_> hi .. anyone have one atheros AR5006EG wireless card working in ubuntu 7.10 64 bits ???
[11:24] <Ronin[]> hi, I'm getting a 404 when trying to install some packages via synaptic. Getting 404 even when refreshing the source-lists
[11:24] <Cyber_Stalker> brade1: try and see

[11:25] <manuel_> hi
[11:25] <brade1> Cyber_Stalker> should i try those steps??
[11:25] <inversekinetix> thanks Nallep I'll do that
[11:25] <achadwick> gb.archive and security.ubuntu are up, if that's any help
[11:25] <manuel_> someone got an nvidia gforce 8800 (GT/GTS/GTX) to work on ubuntu 7.10?
[11:25] <hairulfr> inversekinetix: Just go away....
[11:26] <Cyber_Stalker> no idea brade1
[11:26] <miss^l0t3k> inversekinetix, haha. well cookie for you. you'll most likely need all that to play solitaire in the next version of wind0ze ;)
[11:26] <Cyber_Stalker> i just kept trying untill it worked again
[11:26] <achadwick> chi11y: sudo aptitude install python-gconf
[11:26] <chi11y> achadwick, ok will try that thanx :)
[11:27] <inversekinetix> sudo aptitude uninstall miss^lOt3k
[11:27] <miss^l0t3k> :)
[11:27] <chi11y> argh! no module gnome.. does that mean I have to install gnome?? o.O
[11:27] <achadwick>  /ignore inversekinetix

[11:27] <ubotu> inversekinetix: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:28] <Ronin[]> is it possible that a running download is causing that problem in synaptic ?
[11:28] <inversekinetix> callvote kiss achadwick
[11:28] <inversekinetix> "oops"
[11:28] <miss^l0t3k> ...
[11:28] <hairulfr> Ronin[]: Yes, but what is the problem and what are you downloading with?
[11:29] <AL3X-admin> Hi everyone :) ! What is the diference between normal kernel and a RealTime kernel in Ubuntu Gusty ?
[11:29] <inversekinetix>  ChanServ removes channel operator status from Pici  << what does this mean?
[11:29] <Ronin[]> i'm downloading 7.10 Live CD via Firefox
[11:29] <Agent_bob> oh me.   i've installed 6 OS's on this one box in the last 5 hours and have two to go...
[11:30] <Ronin[]> my synaptic told me, that it could not download package-lists
[11:30] <achadwick> chi11y: are you using kubuntu? In that case, you'll have to install some of the GNOME libs to get GLADE working.
[11:30] <inversekinetix> おやすみ
[11:30] <Ronin[]> actually, i just refreshed the source-lists via apt-get update
[11:30] <WirelessEuphoria> my wireless does not seem to want to obtain an IP automatically. It tries to, but fails to every time on any AP I've tried it with. How do I resolve this issue other then statically assigning it?
[11:30] <chi11y> achadwick, I'm using server with only openbox
[11:30] <Ronin[]> so it seams that the servers are running
[11:30] <chi11y> but only the libs, you say?
[11:30] <hairulfr> Ronin[]: The other DL could be killing your connection
[11:31] <Ronin[]> i wanted to reinstall eclipse / blender a few minutes ago, that was when it first told me the package could not be downloaded
[11:31] <Ronin[]> ok, i'll wait until it's done
[11:31] <miss^l0t3k> WirelessEuphoria, i found gnome network manager to be somewhat screwy with wifi, maybe try wicd idk
[11:31] <achadwick> In theory, yes
[11:31] <necrite_> WirelessEuphoria, first.. kill all the dhclients, then kill all pppd on your box ( if u dont need it) and then run again dhclient  interface
[11:31] <AL3X-admin> Hi everyone :) ! What is the diference between normal kernel and a RealTime kernel in Ubuntu Gusty ?
[11:31] <hairulfr> How come "Dictionary Look Up" has been broken since for ever?
[11:32] <chi11y> achadwick, just libgnome then or would there be any others required?
[11:32] <joao__> hello there, I'm trying to install php5-interbase on gutsy but it seens there's a brokem req, I saw the bug filled at the launchpad, Is there someone aware of this ? any workaround ?
[11:32] <gryfie__> hi. Does the ubuntu-live cd (7,1) boot into the desktop?
[11:33] <Pinchiukas> I've had this great idea - to use a thin client as a router, any ideas how to implement that? haven't had any experience with thin clients :/
[11:33] <kritzstapf> http://img65.imageshack.us/img65/6946/screenshot1mx0.png - why are some of the icons that blury?
[11:33] <Ronin[]> it seams, that the problem does only occur with synaptic, i still can install via apt-get
[11:33] <gryfie__> I have problems, 'cause I cant boot into safe-grafics-mode into desktop
[11:33] <hairulfr> Ronin[] Weird,
[11:34] <Ronin[]> ok, erase last line, now even apt-get is telling me the same *g*
[11:34] <Agent_bob> Ronin[] sources.list problem ?
[11:34] <kritzstapf> Ronin[]: are you using de.archive.ubuntu.com?
[11:34] <WirelessEuphoria> necrite_, how do i go about doing this?
[11:34] <Ronin[]> no, getting a 404 - not found problem
[11:35] <Agent_bob> Ronin[] pastebin your sources.list file and lets have a look.
[11:35] <Ronin[]> kritztapf: yes
[11:35] <kritzstapf> the de.archive.ubuntu.com mirror is empty atm, dont know why, but it is, i just removed the "de." part from my sources.list and updated, working ;)
[11:36] <achadwick> chi11y: simply installing python-glade2 should sort out the dependencies for you. There shouldn't be any desktop magic like gdm in that bundle, but you might want to use apt-get rather than aptitude for server.
[11:36] <necrite_> WirelessEuphoria, sudo killall dhclient; sudo killall dhclient; sudo killall pppd ; sudo killall pppd ;
[11:36] <necrite_> :D
[11:36] <Ronin[]> ok.... thanks ^^ it's been a while since i last editted the source.list,  where is that file ? *g*
[11:36] <Pici> /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:37] <achadwick> ... simply because aptitude tries to be smart and pulls in Recommends: stuff too.
[11:37] <reverseblade> is there a quick way to install 100.14.09 nvidia drivers?
[11:37] <Ranuka> how 2 use dvd
[11:37] <Pici> !dvd | Ranuka
[11:37] <ubotu> Ranuka: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[11:38] <Ranuka> how 2 install ubuntu on new pc
[11:38] <kritzstapf> reverseblade: nvidia-glx-new is 100.14.19, just use the restricted-manager
[11:39] <reverseblade> kritzstapf, I don't want 100.14.19. It is buggy on my system
[11:39] <jburd> Ranuka: Boot the PC using the Ubuntu CD and click Install on the desktop that appears in a while.
[11:39] <kritzstapf> reverseblade: hm :/
[11:39] <Javid> !install
[11:39] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[11:40] <Ranuka> how many partition need the my system
[11:40] <WirelessEuphoria> necrite_, dhclient: no process killed dhclient: no process killed pppd: no process killed pppd: no process killed
[11:40] <srujan> hi all
[11:40] <jburd> Ranuka: The installer can handle all that for you.  Use "Guided partitioning"
[11:40] <chi11y> hmm python-glade2 was already installed.. :S
[11:40] <chi11y> well, I think I'll do some googeling on dependencies for autoglade, this seems weird
[11:41] <necrite_> WirelessEuphoria, oks now run dhclient interface_name
[11:41] <Ranuka> can i to use in ubuntu on my previous windows o/s
[11:43] <panny> does anyone know if there is a program like windows media center for linux?

[11:45] <panny> is mythtv just for tv?

[11:48] <achadwick> chi11y: python-gconf seems to be the missing one in your pastebin backtrace. In general try to satisfy python lib dependencies from the repos: they're typically named "python-%s" % module_name :)
[11:49] <chi11y> ok
[11:49] <chi11y> achadwick, what is the name of the gnome python libs
[11:49] <chi11y> python-gnome is a nogo
[11:50] <Agent_bob> chi11y you can search in synaptic or    apt-cache search <strings>
[11:50] <sSiroSoriSs> woot woot
[11:50] <Agent_bob>   apt-cache search python
[11:51] <Agent_bob>   apt-cache search ^python | grep gnome
[11:52] <Odd-rationale> When doing a backup with sbackup, how do you exclude hidden files? I tried "/.*" but it did not work.
[11:52] <chi11y> thx Agent_bob

[11:57] <niina> Hello! Have a big problem here guys! I was just messing around with some colors on my desktop, like what color the icon text should have etc.etc. After a couple of X reboots a window came up and said "Cannot detect video-card drivers!" And my resolution got all messed up, my twinview dissapeared and I cannot change the resolution of my screen over 640x450 (or whatever that resolution is) please help!
[11:58] <panny> astro76 that myth tv seems to be a whole system, not just a program that would just allow me to use a remote to navigate pics and music
[11:59] <hairulfr> IS there any way to remove those ugly gray things that surround functions added to a panel?

[12:03] <maluendazo> hi all
[12:03] <maluendazo> have anybody been able to overclock a nvidia card?
[12:04] <ac-dc> sexy_girl
[12:07] <achadwick> bergheim: I think desktop is if you localise it on installation. It won't be if you selected the C locale, probably.
[12:07] <maluendazo> please, anyone who has been able to overclock a nvidia card open me a pm
[12:08] <bergheim> achadwick: I would choose the default language (english), but my own localization (currency etc) norwegian
[12:08] <DAC1138> maluendazo, why not just try the overclockers forum?

[12:20] <ttmrichter_> Hello.  Does anybody here know where Rhythmbox keeps its configurations?  I've deleted ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox and, in fact, deleted everything I could find (using find | grep <whatever>) that has "rhythmbox", "xine" and "gstreamer" anywhere in my home directory tree -- yet whenever I fire up Rhythmbox, it's bringing with it a whole bunch of incorrect settings that it refuses to lose.  Where is it getting these from?
[12:20] <Pici> ttmrichter_: have you checked in gconf?
[12:21] <wirechief> i have a jumping cursor problem that i have to use my one line script for to keep it in check with synclient TouchpadOff=1
[12:21] <wirechief> very annouying
[12:21] <nila> thanks sander_
[12:21] <wirechief> seems all distros have same mouse problems with this computer
[12:22] <ttmrichter_> Pici: I deleted *EVERYTHING* *EVERYWHERE* that had gstreamer, xine or rhythmbox in the file or directory name.  Including under the .gconf tree.  Still really bad luck at getting rid of the crap that rhythmbox has accumulated.
[12:22] <sander_> ttmrichter_: tried to search gconf?
[12:22] <Pici> sander_: I just suggested that ;)
[12:22] <ttmrichter_> sander_: search how?
[12:22] <Pici> ttmrichter_: using gconf-editor
[12:23] <nila> sander_,  - do you know how to configure it so it happens when I move my mouse to the edge of the screen (a corner) instead of on a button click?
[12:24] <Pici> nila: if you are using Gutsy, and have compizconfig-settings-manager you can set it up to use a mouse corner
[12:24] <nila>  have that and i'm in there
[12:24] <ttmrichter_> OK, gconf-editor returns lots of hits on rhythmbox -- but won't let me delete anything.  What's the trick?
[12:25] <nila> got it :)
[12:26] <nila> is there any way with a dual monitor setup in Gutsy to have a seperate wallpaper on each screen instead of one stretched between both?
[12:27] <ttmrichter_> Actually the gconf-editor thing doesn't contain the stuff that's giving me grief.  Where does rhythmbox actually store its information?
[12:28] <Bokeh> does anyone know if there's a x64 dpkg with the e1000_ich9 driver floating around somewhere?
[12:28] <Bokeh> for 2.6.20 that is ;)
[12:30] <boris> does ubuntu have any tools for cleaning up disk space in its repos ?
[12:30] <g[r]eek> Hi I've installed proftpd but I cannot connect to it with the default account from my ftp client
[12:31] <g[r]eek> The error doesn't tell me much "Unable to initialise SFTP: could not connect"- the proftpd.conf is configured on port 22
[12:31] <Bokeh> SFTP is not FTP
[12:31] <Bokeh> SFTP is file transfer over a SSH connection
[12:31] <Pinchiukas> is there a version of ubuntu that could fit on a 128MB usb flash key?
[12:32] <Bokeh> i think a base install should fit pinchiukas
[12:32] <Bokeh> but i doubt you'd have all the graphical goodies then
[12:32] <Pinchiukas> I don't need them, I just want to test if the machine boots
[12:33] <g[r]eek> "Connection has been unexpectedly closed. Server sent command exit status 1.
[12:33] <nila> hmm
[12:33] <Pinchiukas> Bokeh where can I find such an edition?
[12:33] <nila> I'm abit upset with Gutsy
[12:33] <nila> and Compiz
[12:33] <Bokeh> think you'd have to install it manually
[12:33] <nila> there's only 4 different ways to choose between currently open apps :(
[12:33] <nila> not impressed! :P
[12:33] <Gatestone> bergheim: yes Ubuntu is UTF-8 by default, as most systems are these days.
