[01:07] <goki_>  package architecture (x86_64) does not match system (amd64)
[01:07] <MistaED> goki_: not sure, maybe it's some other reason?
[01:08] <SirKillalot> how do I ignore package collisions with dpkg?
[01:08] <goki_> It seems to have built some amd64 packages elsewhere, I think
[01:08] <MistaED> goki_: maybe you'll need to rename the makefiles from x86_64 to amd64, *shrugs*
[01:08] <goki_> but they don't match the version I used
[01:08] <goki_> MistaED, nah that can't be right
[01:09] <goki_> plus I suspect the arch will be in the packages as well
[01:09] <ibh> hi all
[01:09] <ibh> i am having ubutno 5.10 and i am not able to run .bin file !
[01:09] <MistaED> other distros are calling their arch x86_64 whereas debian (and possibly other non-deb distos) calls it amd64
[01:09] <bob_4_a_day> hmmm seems moz and xchat are both depending on libgtk  so  maybe i'll remove it anyway......
[01:09] <ibh> it gives error
[01:10] <ArDz> ibh, u've to extract it throught ur terminal
[01:10] <ibh> i am using the terminal !
[01:11] <robotgeek> ibh: what are you trying to install? mostly you extract bin files by ./file.bin
[01:11] <jozefj> anyone can help me here>
[01:11] <peter__> hi i got a pretty dumb question! How do i get gdesklets to start along with the rest of the system
[01:11] <robotgeek> jozefj: what is your issue?
[01:11] <peter__> ?
[01:11] <peter__> I am uing the latest ubuntu
[01:11] <robotgeek> peter__: you just add it your gnome-session, System -> Prefs -> Sessions
[01:11] <ibh> it gives this error "while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:11] <ibh> "
[01:11] <peter__> uhh THANKS!!!
[01:12] <bob_4_a_day> !b-e
[01:12] <ubotu> If you get errors saying gcc cannot create executables, or that you can't find header files like stdio.h, you need to apt-get install build-essential.
[01:12] <robotgeek> ibh: sudo apt-get install libstdc++5
[01:12] <bob_4_a_day> ibh ^
[01:12] <tech_guy_one> i git my ubuntu cd today, how do i install it without losing my xp install, i have patition magic... :(
[01:12] <HappyFool> ibh: install the libstdc++5 package
[01:12] <goki_> hm, the dpkg-architecture stuff at the start of the build script returns x86_64-linux-gnu
[01:13] <ibh> ok thanks i am installing it now
[01:13] <jozefj> i want to intsall vlc but then i should install it through 'advanced' .. im now in synaptic package manager
[01:13] <ibh> but why it did not come with ubuntu 5.10 !?

thnx
[01:18] <robotgeek> jozefj: yes
[01:18] <robotgeek> jozefj: totem can play mp3 and other stuff if you install a few more packages
[01:18] <bob_4_a_day> !codecs
[01:18] <ubotu> from memory, codecs is binary only codecs that some call evil. You can get them by going to http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats, and looking for "The Codecs". Another possible download location is http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/

[01:22] <m_akys> thanks
[01:22] <bob_4_an_hour> come on grub ????
[01:22] <goki_> ok...when I do the build from source, it makes some nice amd64 debs in the directory above the one I build in, then an x86_64 package I can't use in the directory I am in
[01:23] <goki_> but the versions in the parent directory are marked as the same version I have installed, so then it nags me to install old version
[01:23] <lord_rob> nobody knows if ubuntu install cd can be used to net-install debian sid ?
[01:23] <robotgeek> sven: is it not there in the repositories?
 im at the patitioner and it says only 8.2 mb free, and 4.3 gb in ntfs partition, in the ntfs about 3 gb is free, but this is saying its full
[01:24] <sven> robotgeek, no, I changed the sources.list through the wiki, alot of multimedia players are available now, but mplayer stays grayed out
[01:24] <bob_4_an_hour> lord_rob it can give you a linux console..... and net access.   so in the linux world yes it can but dont ask me how.....
[01:25] <ibh> what is the best player for : rm , ram files ?  because realplayer is not able to run it :(
[01:25] <robotgeek> sven: did you include backports? mplayer is in multiverse
[01:25] <robotgeek> ibh: unfortunately, those can only be played by realplayer
[01:26] <sven> robotgeek: apt-get works :) thanks anyway
[01:26] <tech_guy_one> is there a guide i can follow to install ubuntu ?
[01:26] <lord_rob> bob_4_an_hour: it's well known that ubuntu installer is a modified version of a recent snapshot of debian installer ...
[01:26] <robotgeek> sven: np
[01:26] <bob_4_an_hour> tech_guy_one :)   free space for a partition and free space on a parition are not the same....
[01:26] <robotgeek> tech_guy_one: yes, there is
[01:26] <bob_4_an_hour> !install
[01:26] <ubotu> rumour has it, install is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation
 damn, ok, so i use partion magic and make it unallocated space, linux will use that
[01:27] <robotgeek> tech_guy_one: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation
[01:27] <robotgeek> nm
[01:27] <bob_4_an_hour> yep
 got it, thnx
[01:27] <tech_guy_one> illread it up and come back here

[01:30] <robotgeek> !de
[01:30] <ubotu> Bitte gehen sie nach #ubuntu-de fuer deutschsprachige hilfe
[01:30] <sven> robotgeek: do you happen to know why the diskmanager keeps loading after I use some programs in Ubuntu, when I use it after a reboot it works.. ( I just reinstalled Ubuntu without solving the issue )
[01:30] <tech_guy_one> is 6 gb enough or do i need to give it more ? im not a hardcore linux user, i just want to learn it...
[01:30] <RealOerkel> @ubotu
[01:30] <RealOerkel> ok
[01:30] <jack-> techguy
[01:30] <jack-> way too much ;p
[01:30] <robotgeek> tech_guy_one: more space is never a problem :)
 hehe...
[01:31] <robotgeek> sven: diskmanager, in windows?
 can i see windows drives in ubuntu and vice-versa ?
[01:31] <sven> robotgeek: no in Ubuntu ofcourse :)  Disks
[01:32] <ubuntu> Hey.. dunno if this is the right place, but I have Mandrake 10 installed on one partition, and I want to remove it to install UBUNTU. But the mandrake thing has added a boot selector in the boot sequence, and I am afraid if I remove the mandrake partition, I will get trouble in my boot, as the sw will be gone. any ideas?
[01:32] <robotgeek> tech_guy_one: ntfs is a problem. AFAIK, write access is still beta
[01:32] <jack-> dont use it
[01:32] <robotgeek> sven: i don't know what disk manager, you mean the ones which put icons on your desktop?
[01:32] <jack-> it will mess up your filesystem
 chuck writing, can i read mp3's that are in my ntfs ?
[01:33] <jozefj> how do i know which ubuntu im wearing? do i need to install breezy or not?
[01:33] <sven> robotgeek: System -> Administration -> Disks
[01:33] <ccc_> tech_guy_one: you can read from ntfs w/o problems
 thats good to hear... and can i read the ubuntu FS in xp ?
[01:34] <jack-> jozefj, try "uname -r"
[01:34] <Lord_Athur> hi
[01:34] <adragon> Hey.. dunno if this is the right place, but I have Mandrake 10 installed on one partition, and I want to remove it to install UBUNTU. But the mandrake thing has added a boot selector in the boot sequence, and I am afraid if I remove the mandrake partition, I will get trouble in my boot, as the sw will be gone. any ideas? Please PM me
[01:34] <robotgeek> sven: it keeps running all the time?
[01:35] <jack-> adragon: repetition wont help you here
[01:35] <adragon> jack-: sorry....
[01:35] <sven> robotgeek: yep, it just keeps saying: starting Disks
[01:35] <MistaED> tech_guy_one: what i've done is made the main storage partition on my pc to be ext3 or ext2, and just used www.fs-driver.org so that windows could read/write to it as well
[01:35] <ProN00b> im suposed to have a over 6 gb of data on my ubuntu disk of which only 700mb is in my home dir, how can i find out where the biggest files are ?
[01:36] <jack-> cd / && du -h
[01:36] <jonmasters> du -sh /*
[01:36] <MistaED> it beats FAT32 as you can have files >4gb, that and ext2/3 is superior in it's own right
[01:36] <sunshine82> im gettin this error now ound Juicer could not extract this CD.
[01:36] <sunshine82> Reason: Could not create GStreamer encoders for New MP3 Profile
[01:36] <sunshine82> what does it mean
 so ubuntu can install in ext3 ?
[01:36] <m_akys> I can't select SSL in mail notification. May I need some package?
[01:36] <sunshine82> im usin this instruction  :https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CDRipping?highlight=%28CD%29%7C%28RIPPER%29
[01:36] <tech_guy_one> and windows can read it using a driver from www.fs-driver.org ?
[01:36] <MistaED> yeah ext3 seems to be ubuntu's default format
[01:37] <jack-> reiserfs > ext3 though
[01:37] <MistaED> yes, but i don't recommend writing to it from windows
[01:37] <jack-> but there's no windows tool yet
[01:37] <MistaED> windows doesn't have a good reiserfs driver yet
[01:37] <fortran01> what does 0xffffff00UL mean as a subnet mask? thanks
[01:37] <MistaED> yea
[01:37] <adragon> guess noone has an answer to me.. well..thanx anyway for your time..
[01:37] <jack-> adragon, just install ubuntu
[01:37] <jonmasters> fortran01: It means /24 or <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:37] <jack-> it does its own grub/lilo setup, no need to worry
[01:38] <jonmasters> fortran01: Or that only the nearest 254 hosts are on the same subnet.
[01:38] <fortran01> jonmasters: is that a hex
 so ill make a 8 gb ext3 partition, install ubuntu in it, and get a driver from the site and i can read ext3 in windows, 'i wint write to it from windows' then im fine ?
[01:38] <jonmasters> fortran01: Yes.
[01:38] <fortran01> jonmasters: what is UL?
[01:39] <jonmasters> Anything beginning 0x is hex. If it says "UL" at the end then that means Unsigned Long, or unsigned 32 bits.
[01:39] <MistaED> tech_guy_one: what i do is have 6gb windows ntfs, 6gb ubuntu ext3 + 1gb swap, then the rest is ext3
[01:39] <fortran01> jonmasters: ahh.thank you so much
[01:39] <adragon> jack-: just let it overwrite the mandrake?.. That should work, you think?= Also in the boot sequece...
[01:39] <MistaED> if you will write to ext3 from windows, know this: unix write permissions will be ignored, and there is no journalising
 ok thanks, im off to install it now...
[01:40] <adragon> jack-: gotta go.. but thanx..
[01:40] <kitsune> Howdy everyone
[01:40] <tech_guy_one> thnaks for ur help guys!
[01:40] <kitsune> Could someone help me out for one minute?
[01:40] <tech_guy_one> ill be back
[01:40] <tech_guy_one> :)
[01:40] <mx-r> hello, I just installed ubuntu 5.10. attached my SATA HDD, under Administration -> Disks it is present but how can I mount it and access files?
[01:40] <robotgeek> kitsune: sure, just state your problem
[01:40] <jim> can someone give me the standard path in command lines. say the app I want to install is on my desktop, what's the command: sudo /??/??
[01:41] <kitsune> Well, I have downloaded teh Install disc, but I can't get it to boot in CD-ROM drive
[01:41] <robotgeek> jim: you install it by generally executing a script, so 'sudo script.sh'
[01:41] <sven> kitsune: you set up the bios so that it will boot from the cd-drive?
[01:41] <kitsune> Yepp, I've done that
[01:41] <robotgeek> jim: sudo ./script.sh
[01:41] <jim> what's the rest of it?
[01:41] <sven> kitsune: does it give an error, does it even try to boot?
[01:42] <robotgeek> jim: what are you trying to install?
[01:42] <jim> real player
[01:42] <kitsune> well, at teh startup, it says: "Boot from CD Drive:.... Failure"
[01:42] <robotgeek> jim: chmod +x RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[01:42] <sven> kitsune: dit you try a disc of which you are sure it boots or tried a different drive if available
[01:42] <ProN00b>  /proc is 515M and /usr is 4.6G is that too much ?
[01:42] <jim> can I leave the file on my desktop?
[01:43] <robotgeek> jim: sudo ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin will install it
[01:43] <m_akys> robotgeek: mail-notifications seems not work
[01:43] <robotgeek> m_akys: what issue are you having?
[01:43] <m_akys> I'm triying to check my gmail account
[01:43] <robotgeek> m_akys: hmm, one sexc
[01:44] <HappyFool> ProN00b: /proc is virtual; i wouldn't worry about it
[01:44] <kitsune> Sven: Yeah, I've burned it in 3 different ways: I've tried creating a "data disc", I've tried creating a "bootable disc" and I've loeaded the .iso file in Deamon and then draged all the files and burned thoose
[01:44] <gnomefreak> m_akys,  i know the gmail one doesnt work well never did for me :(
[01:44] <sven> kitsune: you need to open the iso file in Nero, then it recognizes it and burns it bootable
[01:44] <sven> kitsune: do you have a program that burns iso files?
[01:44] <kitsune> how do I open the iso file in Nero?
[01:44] <jfletcher> kitsune: shipit.ubuntu.com ;)
[01:45] <sven> open nero
[01:45] <sven> then choose open file
[01:45] <kitsune> sven: ah, didn't know I could do that
[01:45] <m_akys> ok, i tried to check it through pop3 but i can't select TLS support
[01:45] <sven> kitsune: no problem
[01:45] <robotgeek> m_akys: i am going to check if there is a bug on that
[01:45] <kitsune> jfletcher: hehe, yeah, that has crossed my mind
[01:45] <jfletcher> =]
[01:45] <jim> when I do chmod it says can't access  ... no file or such directory
[01:45] <lucasvo> my evolution crashes all the time :(
[01:45] <kitsune> sven: okay, thanks alot
[01:45] <HappyFool> ProN00b: my /home is 12G and /usr is 1.9G
[01:45] <jozefj> what does repositiories means?
[01:45] <gnomefreak> kitsune, in nero if you go into the prefferences there is a way to burn iso image
[01:45] <kitsune> I'll try it
[01:45] <leagris> kitsune, when you open the cd, do you see the .iso file or do you see varieus files and dirctories ?
[01:45] <lucasvo> http://pastebin.com/438598 < whenever I hit the scrollbar evolution crashed
[01:45] <jfletcher> I got like 200 cd's - just hand them around college aswell as having pleanty of spares :)
[01:45] <robotgeek> jim: change to the directory in which you downloaded realplayer
[01:46] <m_akys> robotgeek: thanks
[01:46] <jim> when I do sudo ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin it says no such file or directory
[01:46] <MistaED> jfletcher: i found 20 x86 to be pleanty :P
[01:46] <gnomefreak> !nero
[01:46] <ubotu> gnomefreak: NO SPEAKE ENLISH!
[01:47] <jim> robotgeek, that's what I'm trying to figure out, what would be the way to write the path
[01:47] <mx-r> could somebody quick help me? I enabled a partition, created a directory in /mnt where I mount it but cannot access it as a regular user. what permissions do I have to set for /mnt/E for example?
[01:47] <leagris> lucasvo, I'v found Evolution is quite unstable and randomly crash. If you don't need such things as Exchange OSA connector you may have much stability with Thunderbird.
[01:47] <kitsune> Okay, so I should burn it as a CD image?
[01:47] <globalbug> how to add....?  printer jobs icon on desktop
[01:47] <jfletcher> MistaED: I only got about 5 left, people on my computer course love it, just about everyone in my college knows about it now ;) (thats 9000 people)
[01:48] <gnomefreak> leagris,  im glad to see im not the only one that doesnt like evolution :)
[01:48] <atrolinux> Where is the default desktop background found on the ubuntu system?  I'd like to find it in case I want to change it back
[01:48] <lucasvo> leagris: do you know how I can export evolution mails to thunerbird? is there good gpg interface in thunderbird?
[01:48] <sven> kitsune: when you choose open file? it's the button that shows a folder with an arrow pointing out it imediatly gives you the burn screen and you can start burning.
[01:48] <MistaED> jfletcher: whoa, awesome
[01:48] <gnomefreak> atrolinux,  if you have ubuntu you have it in desktop backgrounds
[01:48] <atrolinux> gnomefreak, where is that?
[01:48] <sven> kitsune: second button from the left in Nero
[01:48] <robotgeek> lucasvo: gpg interface is good in both.
[01:49] <jfletcher> MistaED: was gonna just issue all my computers with it, coz them cases look nice + professional compared to a burnt CD -- coz all my computers I build come with linux,, dont provide them to newbs ;]
[01:49] <gnomefreak> atrolinux,  right click desktop and click change background
[01:49] <kitsune> sven: yeah, in Nero, I chosed "open file", selected the ubunto install iso, then a dialog poped up with some options saying "CD image" is this correct?
[01:49] <robotgeek> lucasvo: there are some scripts which convert from evolution to thunderbird, ask uncle google
[01:49] <jfletcher> kitsune:  yeeee bro
[01:49] <lucasvo> robotgeek: ok
[01:49] <jfletcher> sounds right, never used nero though
[01:49] <leagris> lucasvo, I didn not look at importing evolution mails to thunderbird thoug you may search the web and find it. As for gpg inegration to thunderbird that is called enigmail and is fully integrated. Even support gpgmime messages where gpg signature and content are provided as mime parts instead of the old embeded separator trick.
[01:50] <kitsune> jfletcher, okay, then I'll be right off Burning
[01:50] <kitsune> Thank you guys!
[01:50] <jfletcher> kitsune: you can sue me for the 50 pence your CD cost if it goes wrong ;)
[01:50] <gnomefreak> just change the settings its so much easier i just wish i still had the wiki on it
[01:50] <atrolinux> gnomefreak, thanks, but sadly it's not actually what I needed.  I'm needing the path to it, so I can set it in a shell script if my database of random images is down, etc.  I was just trying to make the question easier to understand ;)  Do you know the path to it?
[01:51] <ccc_> mx-r: try: chmod 777 /mnt/E/
[01:51] <kitsune> jfletcher: hehe, okay, I'll remember that
[01:51] <MistaED> jfletcher: i'm a small-time converter, but when i convert, i have them all pre-packaged with codecs, bunch of themes, fonts, etc. so it can do just about anything
[01:51] <gnomefreak> atrolinux, sorry man i dont
[01:51] <mx-r> ccc_, still permission denied. I guess it could be something that has to do with groups because user is root and group is root
[01:51] <MistaED> i just need to make an end-all dvd with all the right .debs and other files on it, for the dial-up users :)
[01:52] <jfletcher> MistaED: Yeh, I used to do that with Gentoo, make a rar instead of fucking around with that shitty 30 hour install

[01:53] <Astxist> I remember printing the install guide for gentoo I don't think my printer will ever forget that
[01:54] <m_akys> robotgeek: maybe I must reboot

[01:54] <robotgeek> m_akys: checking
[01:55] <Astxist> dpupp, open the terminal and type 'uptime'
[01:55] <lucaas> does anyone know if theres a good video editing software for linux?

[01:56] <m_akys> robotgeek: do you have openssl installed?
[01:56] <robotgeek> m_akys: SSL was disabled because of a license issue, it should be solved soon
[01:56] <Astxist> lol
[01:56] <robotgeek> m_akys: it doesn't matter, as it was compiled without ssl support
[01:56] <m_akys> robotgeek: ok
[01:57] <m_akys> robotgeek: and another mail notification that supports gmail? :)
[01:57] <robotgeek> m_akys: lemme check

[02:07] <sven> robotgeek: do you know how I can setup the tv-out that it fits the screen? Because I don't know its horizontal and vertical refresh rates.
[02:07] <sven> robotgeek: I have installed the ati drivers
[02:08] <robotgeek> gnomefreak: without
[02:09] <robotgeek> sven: i am not sure, i've not done it

[02:09] <robotgeek> gnomefreak: i am not sure about that, sorry
[02:09] <sabmann> when I try to run totem I get an error: The video output is in use by another application. Please close other video applications, or select another video output in the Multimedia Systems Selector.
[02:10] <SatanG> hi, why wasnt i asked to make a root password during the installation?
[02:10] <gnomefreak> robotgeek,  its ok  thanks man :)
[02:10] <sven> can anyone help me with setting up the tv-out with ATi drivers?  I can't find the right values for the tv...
[02:10] <sabmann> but i'm definitely not using any totem isntances
[02:10] <timmow> hi does anyone know how to enable web management of cups?
[02:10] <sabmann> *instances
[02:10] <gnomefreak> SatanG, "root" password is user password you use sudo not su
[02:10] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell SatanG about sudo
[02:11] <xerophyte> how do you change the default screen resolution ?
[02:11] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell SatanG  about root
[02:11] <gnomefreak> :)
[02:11] <robotgeek> xerophyte: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xerver-xorg'
[02:12] <sabmann> xerophyte, or try  system>preferences>screen resolution
[02:12] <SatanG> ok, thanks
[02:13] <madness> hi, can anyone tell me how I might change the sensitivity of my trackpad to clicks when I press down on it to move the mouse cursor (or turn off that functionality full stop)
[02:13] <xerophyte> robotgeek, does that works with xorg.conf just wondering
[02:13] <madness> (and more importantly, will anyone)
[02:13] <madness> :P
[02:13] <robotgeek> xerophyte: yes, in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:14] <timmow> madness: It involves changing properties of the synaptics driver
[02:14] <timmow> madness: is that enabled in your xorg.conf?
[02:14] <xerophyte> robotgeek, can i simpley edit that file if so what am i trying to edit there current resolution is 1856x1392 i wanna change to 1024x768 because my VMware screen is small
[02:14] <madness> timmow: checking now.
[02:15] <mustard5> anyone had any issues with xorg after the latest kernel updates?
[02:15] <mustard5> just curious as something went totally wacky on ubuntu install today
[02:15] <madness> timmow: yes - I'll check docs for that before asking further. thanks.
[02:16] <aquiles> hello
[02:16] <gnomefreak> mustard5,  nope but you can use 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' to fix it
[02:16] <timmow> madness: I remember you need an option to enable shmconfig I think
[02:16] <robotgeek> xerophyte: sure you can :)
[02:16] <lucas_> hi
[02:16] <aquiles> anyone can help me to set up my wireless conection?
[02:17] <timmow> madness: then you can use a program called synclient to dynamically change the touchpad options, until you find something you like then you can add it to xorg.conf
[02:17] <feugan3333> Hi all. Anyone know a command that I can use to rename a lot of directories containing whitespace to names not containg whitespace?
[02:17] <lucky_lucas> is there a p2p programm like kazaa for ubuntu?
[02:17] <mustard5> gnomefreak, I would have thought so too, but when I did that, switching to vesa drivers, I was still in trouble.  I had to boot up in 386 kernel, instead of K7, and that seems to have fixed it.  I'm now deciding whether I want to tackle getting nividia-glx working again. :)
[02:18] <timmow> aquiles: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page
[02:18] <welp> The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog!!!
[02:18] <timmow> feugan: sounds like a perl thing :)
[02:18] <aquiles> ok, thank you
[02:18] <welp> sorry....
[02:19] <gnomefreak> mustard5, sorry i didnt knwo you were using a k7 :(
[02:19] <madness> timmow: thanks.  looks sane, I'll try it later.
[02:19] <gnomefreak> !k7
[02:19] <ubotu> Bugger all, i dunno, gnomefreak
[02:19] <mustard5> gnomefreak, thats ok. It should all work the same.
[02:20] <mustard5> gnomefreak, I mystified as to what went wrong.
[02:20] <timmow> feugan3333: http://www.pigstye.net/article.php/20021122075650404
[02:20] <mustard5> gnomefreak, I'll try reinstalling nvidia-glx and see if I can get it all working again.
[02:20] <SatanG> hmm, why isnt there a "Run application" under Applications?
[02:20] <gnomefreak> mustard5, i assuming you compiled the k7 kernel since it wasnt an option that im aware of for the i386 update
[02:21] <mustard5> SatanG, alt + f2 in breezy
[02:21] <feugan3333> timmov: I think your right, There is the rename command which is perl.
[02:21] <feugan3333> timmov: Hey thanks
[02:21] <mustard5> gnomefreak, k7 kernel is available through synaptic package manager
[02:21] <gnomefreak> ohhhhhh oops mustard5  thank you
[02:21] <lucky_lucas> can someone give me the name of a filesharing programm under ubuntu
[02:21] <mustard5> gnomefreak, its cool ;)
[02:21] <lucky_lucas> please
[02:22] <robotgeek> lucky_lucas: gtk-gnutella
[02:22] <lucky_lucas> i dont find it
[02:22] <mustard5> lucky_lucas, you may need to enable extra repositories then
[02:22] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell lucky_lucas about repos
[02:22] <lucky_lucas> ok
[02:22] <mustard5> heh
[02:23] <blendor> Bonjout
[02:23] <gnomefreak> good luck mustard5
[02:24] <blendor> Est-ce que qqn  pas une petite ide d'un projet sous linux libre et utile (mais ne touchant pas le multimdia) que je pourrais raliser ?
[02:24] <blendor> J'ai vraiment pas d'ide
[02:24] <blendor> mais je sais qu'il en faut surement ...
[02:24] <robotgeek> !fr
[02:24] <ubotu> Va a #ubuntu-fr et #kubuntu-fr pour aide et discussion en francais
[02:25] <blendor> ubotu, sorry
[02:25] <ubotu> blendor: Are you smoking crack?
[02:25] <blendor> i have forget
[02:25] <blendor> no ;-)
[02:25] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell blendor about u
[02:25] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell blendor about ubotu
[02:25] <mustard5> gnomefreak, thanks
[02:25] <jack-> ubotu: die
[02:25] <ubotu> jack-: Are you smoking crack?
[02:26] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell jack- about botabuse
[02:26] <jack-> :~
[02:27] <feugan3333> ubotu: MAXIMIZE!
[02:27] <ubotu> feugan3333: No idea
[02:27] <FJ_Sanchez> Hi
[02:27] <robotgeek> feugan3333: ubotu is a bot. please don't abuse him
[02:28] <Gorth-> ubotu: tell me about sources
[02:28] <jack-> ubotu: tell robotgeek about robotgeek
[02:28] <FJ_Sanchez> I have a lot of files with a similar filename NAMEsomethingXXXXX.xxx and I would like the something part, how can I do this?
[02:28] <FJ_Sanchez> This part is the same in all files
[02:29] <feugan3333> robotgeek: I though maybe he was related to the robots on BeastWars.
[02:30] <timmow> FJ_Sanchez: what do you want to do with the something part, and what is the same in all files?
[02:30] <gnomefreak> ubotu knows about robotgeek?
[02:30] <ubotu> gnomefreak: I don't know
[02:30] <SatanG> why do i get:
[02:30] <SatanG> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/main Pa ckages (/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_main_binary -i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[02:31] <gnomefreak> SatanG,  the us repos are down use de
[02:31] <Kamping_Kaiser> SatanG: it's a regular thing
[02:31] <Kamping_Kaiser> the us mirrors suxor
[02:31] <SatanG> how do i change the mirrors?
[02:31] <FJ_Sanchez> For example: FileWindows1.txt FileWindows2.txt, I want delete the Windows in all files
[02:31] <FJ_Sanchez> I think awk and sed could be the solution, but I cannot use it
[02:31] <jack-> ubotu: tell gnomefreak about robotgeek
[02:31] <gnomefreak> SatanG, if you go into your sources list and change the us to de it will fix the issue
[02:31] <SatanG> ah, thx :)
[02:31] <gnomefreak> omg :)
[02:31] <timmow> FJ_Sanchez: perl will do it
[02:32] <jack-> ;)
[02:32] <gnomefreak> teaching bots bad habits
[02:32] <gnomefreak> lol
[02:32] <jack-> not really :)
[02:32] <Ugel> I'm trying to play a DVD and Totem says "The source seems encrypted, and can't be read. Are you trying to play an encrypted DVD without libdvdcss?" However, the closest thing to libdvdcss I can find (libdvdread3) is already installed.
[02:32] <timmow> FJ_Sanchez: http://www.evolt.org/article/Renaming_Files_with_Perl/17/351/
[02:32] <FJ_Sanchez> ...
[02:32] <robotgeek> jack-: very clever, but i would imagine you would be that way too after 14+ hours at the term
[02:33] <FJ_Sanchez> Okey, thank you
[02:33] <jack-> no offense, robotgeek ;)
[02:33] <timmow> FJ_Sanchez: then use the regex s/Windows//g
[02:33] <jack-> but i guess i wouldnt even be chatting then
[02:33] <robotgeek> Ugel: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh
[02:34] <FJ_Sanchez> Oh I see
[02:34] <FJ_Sanchez> Thankyou
[02:35] <Ugel> robotgeek: Didn't seem to work
[02:35] <SatanG> sorry, but where do i change the serverlists?
[02:35] <gnomefreak> SatanG, 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[02:35] <Ugel> robotgeek: Same error message
[02:36] <robotgeek> Ugel: all i can do is point you to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[02:36] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell SatanG about sources
[02:36] <robotgeek> jack-: i take the hint, i'm leaving :)
[02:37] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Ugel about restricteds
[02:37] <gnomefreak> damn s
[02:37] <robotgeek> gnomefreak: it's the same page :)
[02:37] <gnomefreak> oh ok ty
[02:37] <gnomefreak> lol
[02:37] <robotgeek> later folks
[02:37] <Ugel> Well, that's what I did and it didn't fix the problem
[02:39] <FJ_Sanchez> timmow, it doesn't work....
[02:40] <jay> anyone know how to tell amarok where to put my podcast
[02:40] <jay> s
[02:40] <Balduran> hello
[02:41] <melonipoika> hi, anyone can tell me a link to download automatix for ubuntu 5.10?
[02:41] <Balduran> i have a problem with my network at home... here is a little picture which describes my situation, the only thing that changed is that i have no installed ubuntu on the desktop pc : http://balduran.de/images2/room.jpg
[02:41] <wickedpuppy> melonipoika, use of automatix is not encouraged
[02:42] <melonipoika> ok, i have used it before and i think it works prety well... any sugesting insted of it?
[02:42] <wickedpuppy> installing individual apps would be the better choice
[02:42] <Talisker> excuse me
[02:42] <FJ_Sanchez> Okey, timmow I used the rename tool that comes with GNU/Linux distros
[02:42] <FJ_Sanchez> Thanks ;)
[02:42] <Talisker> a friend of mine asked me to ask you to unban him
[02:42] <Balduran> 3 month ago i had a script which done some commands and then all signals from the TP card gone to the BNC card
[02:43] <Talisker> you see, he's another innocent victim of your sporadic random banning system
[02:43] <melonipoika> yes.. but it is harder and i had some problems installing skype and so on..
[02:43] <azure> hello there
[02:43] <wickedpuppy> melonipoika, we can't force you not to use it of course ... its your choice .. but it installs things that user may not may not want automatically ...
[02:43] <Talisker> since he's Israeli, if you'll not releas him at once we'll declare you all antisemites
[02:43] <Talisker> err...actually we won't, but plz unban him
[02:43] <Talisker> his nickname is H0lyd4wg
[02:44] <Earthpig> maybe we are? :)
[02:44] <azure> i need some help i have ubuntu 5.10 with Open office 2.0 ....... oo doesnot open for me it shuts down
[02:44] <wickedpuppy> Talisker, i don't remember ops banning people for fun ....
[02:44] <melonipoika> ok, but do you know the link? i asume the risk :)
[02:44] <ke> #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:44] <crimsun> Talisker: why was he banned?
[02:44] <Talisker> I did'nt say ops ban people for fun
[02:44] <wickedpuppy> !automatix
[02:44] <ubotu> automatix is, like, totally, an application that automatically installs many popular programs, particularly the proprietary formats that don't ship with most distros by default. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66563
[02:44] <Talisker> it just that sometimes people get randomly banned
[02:44] <melonipoika> thanks
[02:44] <Talisker> It happened to me once as well
[02:44] <wickedpuppy> np melonipoika :P
[02:44] <Talisker> one shiny morning I just could'nt enter this chan
[02:45] <sdakota> hello
[02:45] <azure> could any one help me
[02:45] <Delvien> anyone know where the lid.sh file is stored?
[02:45] <melonipoika> sorry, i tryed that one and it dosn't run, it is saying that it is for breezy and wont run in horay... but i just installed 5.10!
[02:45] <sdakota> in ubuntu installation, when i get a question for ip, i need to fill in network ip -- but how to tell ubuntu that the public ip has to be something else ?
[02:45] <crimsun> Delvien: /etc/acpi/lid.sh
[02:45] <jay> anyone know how to tell amarok where to put my podcast
[02:46] <wickedpuppy> melonipoika, you got breezy ? try cat /etc/issue ...
[02:46] <melonipoika> sorry?
[02:46] <Delvien> thanks
[02:46] <Talisker> so, if anyone could please unban the guy
[02:46] <melonipoika> i ma newbie in linux, how do i try it?
[02:46] <wickedpuppy> melonipoika, run it in terminal and see the output
[02:46] <crimsun> Talisker: that's so utterly vague
[02:46] <azure>  i need some help i have ubuntu 5.10 with Open office 2.0 ....... oo doesnot open for me it shuts down after i click it
[02:46] <sdakota> in ubuntu installation, when i get a question for ip, i need to fill in network ip -- but how to tell ubuntu that the public ip has to be something else ?
[02:46] <melonipoika> Ubuntu 5.10 "Breezy Badger" \n \l
[02:47] <wickedpuppy> melonipoika, then the script is screwed
[02:47] <wickedpuppy> lol
[02:47] <Talisker> crimsun, it's not me to blame
[02:47] <Alex[RM-UK] > Hey
[02:47] <Talisker> There's something fscked up with your bots
[02:47] <gnomefreak> azure, sounds like it is crashing other than uninstalling it and reinstallling it i dont know a way to fix it
[02:47] <crimsun> the bots don't do any banning.
[02:47] <Alex[RM-UK] > Is there a different file browser than Konquer?
[02:47] <wickedpuppy> ... the bot can't ban
[02:48] <Talisker> so I don't know what's messed up
[02:48] <Talisker> but it does happen
[02:48] <crimsun> the ops don't ban randomly
[02:48] <melonipoika> ok, so then i should install everything manually i guess...
[02:48] <sdakota> Alex[RM-UK] , Yes, Firefox for example, www.getfirefox.com
[02:48] <Talisker> he was'nt banned for doing anything
[02:48] <SatanG> dont find other serverlists than us, what does the german look like?
[02:48] <crimsun> if it's in place, it's there for a good reason
[02:48] <Alex[RM-UK] > file browser, not tinternet
[02:48] <sdakota> in ubuntu installation, when i get a question for ip, i need to fill in network ip -- but how to tell ubuntu that the public ip has to be something else ?
[02:48] <Talisker> he was in base [he's a soldier]  for two weeks, and when he got home he was banned
[02:48] <sdakota> Alex[RM-UK] , Dunno about that
[02:48] <wickedpuppy> melonipoika, i strongly suggest it :P
[02:48] <grogoreo> hi
[02:48] <melonipoika> ok, thanks
[02:48] <gnomefreak> SatanG, use de i think its denmark
[02:49] <Talisker> man, don't gimme that, that channel has a history of improper banning
[02:49] <crimsun> Talisker: all this does nothing to actually say what hostmask was actually banned.
[02:49] <Delvien> anyone know how to run the command sudo dpms off when i close the lid of my laptop? xset dpms force off does not work
[02:49] <gnomefreak> SatanG, the reason i say use de is i am using it so i know it works
[02:49] <jfletcher> Does anybody know the package name of the mp3 id3 tag development lib?
[02:49] <grogoreo> could someone please give me the command for reconfiguring the xserver on breezy?
[02:49] <Talisker> [H0lyD4wg]  (n=fakename@bzq-218-240-214.red.bezeqint.net): constructor-dude
[02:49] <SatanG> like deb http://archive.ubuntu.de/ubuntu breezy main restricted?
[02:49] <jfletcher> grogoreo: just edit xorg.conf
[02:49] <crimsun> grogoreo: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:50] <jfletcher> Does anybody know the package name of the mp3 id3 tag development lib?
[02:50] <gnomefreak> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:50] <grogoreo> jfletcher, I've replaced it with a faultly config
[02:50] <sdakota> in ubuntu installation, when i get a question for ip, i need to fill in network ip -- but how to tell ubuntu that the public ip has to be something else ?
[02:50] <grogoreo> gnomefreak, thanks
[02:50] <gnomefreak> grogoreo,  your welcome
[02:50] <jfletcher> grogoreo: ah, then use crimsun + gnomefreak's ways
[02:50] <Balduran> i have a problem with my network at home... here is a little picture which describes my situation, the only thing that changed is that i have no installed ubuntu on the desktop pc : http://balduran.de/images2/room.jpg
[02:50] <jfletcher> Does anybody know the package name of the mp3 id3 tag development lib?
[02:50] <wickedpuppy> grogoreo, btw .. that command is in that xorg.conf ... read the comments on the top of the file
[02:51] <grogoreo> crimsu, thanks as well

[02:51] <jfletcher> crimsun: thanks alot mate.
[02:51] <SatanG> gnomefreak, W: Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.ubuntu.de breezy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.de_ubuntu_dists_breezy_main_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[02:52] <vbhanu> sorry got to go, will be back in a short time, ignore/leave a message for the messages above
[02:52] <gnomefreak> SatanG,  why is the de in the middle it should be where the us was just take us out and put de in its place
[02:52] <gnomefreak> SatanG,  hold on i will paste mine in pastebin so you can see it
[02:53] <Alex[RM-UK] > For GTK2 support and configuration tools:
[02:53] <Alex[RM-UK] > - GTK2 2.2 or later
[02:53] <Alex[RM-UK] > what packe do I need for this?
[02:53] <Alex[RM-UK] > package*
[02:53] <grogoreo> hmm, for some reason know Gnome is buggered up! It is not rendering anything right
[02:53] <crimsun> Talisker: something more descriptive than 'fakename' for an ident would be helpful
[02:53] <sdakota> Alex[RM-UK] , aptitude search gtk2
[02:53] <Talisker> that's what /whois gives me
[02:53] <sdakota> in ubuntu installation, when i get a question for ip, i need to fill in network ip -- but how to tell ubuntu that the public ip has to be something else ?
[02:54] <Alex[RM-UK] > sdakota, thanks
[02:54] <gnomefreak> oh well guess he didnt need it :(
[02:55] <Alex[RM-UK] > hey, what is AutoConf ?
[02:55] <Alex[RM-UK] > and AutoMake?
[02:55] <Talisker> H0lyD4wg, I guess now would be a good time to tell crimsun about your ban and how you got it, for some reason he's under the impression that all bans are just and no mistakes are made
[02:55] <Alex[RM-UK] > will they insatll aa progam for you?
[02:56] <sdakota> Alex[RM-UK] , They will try to guess how to configure/install a program based on hardware and some settings
[02:56] <H0lyD4wg> i don't know how i got this ban. it's been a long time since the last time i been here
[02:56] <Alex[RM-UK] > ah cool
[02:56] <crimsun> H0lyD4wg: your IP falls under a spambot netmask. There's nothing that can be done about that.
[02:56] <wickedpuppy> Alex[RM-UK] , those are dev tools .... pls google them ... no they won't install programms ... apt-get or synaptic or dpkg will install apps for you
[02:56] <Talisker> hehe, bot's don't ban, huh?
[02:56] <crimsun> Talisker: every single ban in this channel is set by a living person.
[02:57] <gnomefreak> Talisker,  ubotu can not ban anyone :)
[02:57] <Talisker> but you do use a spambot to screen ranges of IP's
[02:57] <Alex[RM-UK] > whats that Copy Dump website? whre I can copy text to for you lot to read an error
[02:57] <_TomB> What does it mean when apt says "The following packages have been kept back:"
[02:57] <crimsun> Talisker: no, there are spambots that join and part this channel.
[02:57] <wickedpuppy> Talisker, we do NOT use spambots ... :P
[02:58] <Talisker> anyway, if it's a knowen issue, you should check first and argue later, that is all
[02:58] <Talisker> C'ya
[02:58] <wickedpuppy> he should be banned ..
[02:58] <Alex[RM-UK] > whats that Kubuntu Copy Dump website? so I can copy error's for you to read and help me?
[02:58] <wickedpuppy> !pastebin
[02:58] <ubotu> I heard pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl
[02:59] <Alex[RM-UK] > thanks,
[02:59] <wickedpuppy> no problemo

[03:04] <melonipoika> no, it is not..
[03:04] <Alex[RM-UK] > wickedpuppy, any idea?
[03:04] <no> what???????
[03:04] <wickedpuppy> Alex[RM-UK] , no ... i can't see the page ... my connection is max out ... shared broadband .. lol
[03:04] <Alex[RM-UK] > ahhhh,
[03:05] <melonipoika> no, sorry, i'm saying that it is not, i didn't wanted to talkt to you :)
[03:05] <Alex[RM-UK] > Can anyone help me with me error? http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/5083
[03:05] <Astxist> melonipoika, maybe you're after gstreamer0.8-plugins?
[03:05] <melonipoika> i'm trying to follow the installing software howto in the ubuntu wiki
[03:06] <melonipoika> i want the plugins to play mp3 and so on
[03:06] <LjL> !tell melonipoika about restrictedformats
[03:06] <H0lyD4wg> any idea why the newly-installed font isn't usable even after "xset fp rehash", stopping gdm, starting gdm, and even rebooting?
[03:07] <LjL> H0lyD4wg: a wild guess, but perhaps you should run defoma?
[03:07] <Alex[RM-UK] > Anyone? http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/5083 :(
[03:07] <melonipoika> LjL, doing that is where i get my errors... any idea?
[03:07] <LjL> melonipoika: unless i see the errors, no
[03:07] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : that's a strange error. try running make under auto-apt
[03:08] <LjL> !tell Alex[RM-UK]  about autoapt
[03:08] <LjL> !tell Alex[RM-UK]  about auto-apt
[03:08] <melonipoika> LjL, it is not possible to find the pakage "gstreamer0.8-plugins-multiverse"
[03:08] <LjL> melonipoika: then you don't have the multiverse repository enabled, you should add it to /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:09] <robotgeek> melonipoika: if you are trying to use automatix, it probably screws up cause u have the words hoary in /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:09] <Astxist> melonipoika, gedit /etc/apt/sources/list and check if it's there
[03:09] <H0lyD4wg> LjL, i'm trying it now, but shouldn't the font be made available after i installed it?
[03:09] <Astxist> *gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:09] <melonipoika> ok, thanks
[03:09] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, I just installed Auto-Apt, so how do I use it to do make?
[03:09] <robotgeek> melonipoika: though, since it enables the root account, i would not recommend it
[03:09] <LjL> H0lyD4wg: haven't the slightest idea, honestly. when i installed the MS fonts (yeah, i did) using the official package, they were set-up automatically
[03:09] <Astxist> melonipoika, you'll need sudo to change if of course
[03:10] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : first thing, you should run "sudo auto-apt update", which will take a while
[03:10] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : when that's finished, "auto-apt run make" inside your source directory
[03:10] <tux-rox> Anyone know a good program that extracts songs from an iPod and on to the hard drive?
[03:10] <sdakota> Alex[RM-UK] , Why do you want to use auto-apt
[03:10] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : that should prompt you about any missing packages that your make is requiring
[03:10] <Alex[RM-UK] > sdakota, I don't kno
[03:11] <sdakota> Alex[RM-UK] , Apt-get is automatically too
[03:11] <H0lyD4wg> LjL, well, defoma-reconfigure finished running and "vga" still isn't available.
[03:11] <robotgeek> melonipoika: enabling root account will kill all the gui admin tools
[03:11] <LjL> sdakota: uh?
[03:11] <sdakota> in ubuntu installation, when i get a question for ip, i need to fill in network ip -- but how to tell ubuntu that the public ip has to be something else ?
[03:11] <Kzar[dot] net> Hi folks
[03:11] <goki_> is the eclipse jdt package broken?
[03:11] <candlelight> just now I installed some updates to ubuntu, a message told me to reboot the system -- I thought linux doesn't need a reboot for update?
[03:11] <Kzar[dot] net> Anyone has MIDI sound support with an I810 Intel chipset ?
[03:11] <sdakota> LjL / Alex[RM-UK] , apt-get can do things automatically too, you don't need to use auto-apt for that.... >.<
[03:11] <Kzar[dot] net> Cause I don't...
[03:11] <LjL> candlelight: usually, it doesn't. it may sometimes
[03:12] <sdakota> I gtg, bye
[03:12] <LjL> sdakota: what can it do automatically?
[03:12] <LjL> bau
[03:12] <LjL> bah
[03:12] <robotgeek> melonipoika: you here?
[03:12] <bluefoxicy> I question just why on my laptop the screen saver comes on while i'm typing
[03:13] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, It came up with exactly the same error
[03:13] <Alex[RM-UK] > god damm I hate how linux installs programs
[03:13] <melonipoika> yes
[03:13] <melonipoika> sorry
[03:13] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : and it didn't ask for any package?
[03:13] <Alex[RM-UK] > so complicated ><
[03:13] <Alex[RM-UK] > ermmmm
[03:13] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : that's *not* how linux installs programs
[03:13] <robotgeek> melonipoika: if you are new to linux, i would not recommend enabling the root account
[03:13] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : programs are supposed to be installed from packages, if you *decide* to install programs from source, you can't blame ubuntu ;)
[03:13] <melonipoika> ok
[03:14] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : anyway, give me the URL to that tarball you're trying to compile, i'll try here
[03:14] <melonipoika> so what is the problem with automatix then?
[03:14] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, no, didn't ask for packages
[03:14] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, lol, let me find it. I downloaded it a while ago and forgot about it
[03:14] <AlinuxOS> hello :) how can I fix a package to don't upgrade?
[03:14] <AlinuxOS> exclude from upgrading I mean.
[03:14] <candlelight> LjL, what kind of updates will need a reboot? I'm learning to use ubuntu as a server, hopefully no downtime.
[03:15] <Zho> anybody know how to make ubuntu support the non-unicode character? my xmms display the character incorrectly...
[03:15] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=13010
[03:15] <LjL> candlelight: usually, you're asked to reboot when a new version of the C standard library is installed, or things like that.
[03:15] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, the first one in the screenshot is the one im after, it's all included in that one MeteaTheme. looks well nice!
[03:15] <goki_> ah never mind, eclipse is trying to run under gcj
[03:16] <melonipoika> actually, ins synaptic almost all my repositories are for ubunty 5.04, is this normal? (i'm running 5.10)
[03:16] <robotgeek> melonipoika: does it say breezy?
[03:17] <melonipoika> no, horay
[03:17] <AlinuxOS> hello :) how can I fix a package to don't upgrade? exclude from upgrading I mean.
[03:17] <Zho> !tell Zho about unicode
[03:18] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : it compiled file for me
[03:18] <LjL> s/file/fine
[03:18] <Delvien>  Anyone know what exact scrpit is run when the lid of a laptop is opened?
[03:18] <melonipoika> if i choose edit in repositories, i can see this url: http://www.bunkus.org/ubuntu/hoary/
[03:19] <melonipoika> should i choose other one for brezy
[03:19] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL,  just my bloody luck. I can never get *anything* to run on Linux ><
[03:19] <melonipoika> ?
[03:19] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : have you tried "make distclean; ./configure; make", just to be sure?
[03:19] <robotgeek> ubotu: tell melonipoika about sources
[03:19] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL,  i'll try now
[03:20] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, !!!!!
[03:20] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, it worked...sort of!
[03:20] <gnomefreak> lol@sort of
[03:20] <Alex[RM-UK] > with a few errors, let me paste bin it lol
[03:20] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : err, did you do "./configure" last time before you compiled? :)
[03:21] <Alex[RM-UK] > yes :P
[03:21] <stratovarius> guys I need help to configure samba.I've already read lotta how too but I 've always the same problem. pc with win sees my pc with linux but it doesnt see my shared folders.who can help me?

[03:23] <sandis> HI! Every time I try to mount my floppy drive, a mount error comes up: Unable to mount selected volume. Error: Given UDI is not mountable volume. Is something wrong with my floppy drive?
[03:23] <sandis> And what is UDI?
[03:23] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : but, man, that's actually the same error as before ;)
[03:24] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, the other error had more,

[03:24] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, what does this line mean:libtool: link: cannot find the library `'
[03:24] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : look, if you want, i can just send you the whole compiled tarball
[03:24] <Alex[RM-UK] > that would be exelent
[03:24] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : i haven't a clue
[03:25] <Aradorn> hrm... stupid box just rebooted into 640x480 reso
[03:25] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, what do I do with the tatball afterwards...god im such a noob
[03:25] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : "sudo checkinstall" (install checkinstall first) should do it
[03:26] <gnomefreak> Alex[RM-UK] , ive been using linux for 8months or longer and still havent compiles a tar yet and dont have a clue how
[03:26] <wickedpuppy> lol
[03:26] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : can you give me an email address that accepts files around one and a half megabytes?
[03:26] <gnomefreak> gmail :)
[03:26] <bDerrly> i just upgraded to dapper and cannot startx (error loading keyboard and mouse driver), anyone run into this?
[03:26] <bDerrly> i take that back, i've been using dapper and just did an apt-get upgrade
[03:26] <LjL> gnomefreak: i was asking about an address *he has* :)
[03:27] <SatanG> gnomefreak, thx, it worked :)   where did i read about sudo that ubuto sent me?
[03:27] <gnomefreak> bDerrly, dapper is too new not many people are using it because of that reason also thats why the /topic refers to dapper users
[03:27] <ClayG> anyone know a good mp3 search site?
[03:27] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL, ... sudo checkinstall, just did it but what does it do?
[03:27] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell SatanG  about sudo
[03:28] <candlelight> hi, i tried to remove "finger" from ubuntu, then it says it'll need to remove acpi-support, gnome-nettool, powermanagement-interface and ubuntu-desktop, why?
[03:28] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : err, you shouldn't have done it now, as you *do not* have the program currently compiled right now...
[03:28] <gnomefreak> SatanG, anytime here to help :)
[03:28] <Alex[RM-UK] > LjL,  Ahh yes
[03:28] <LjL> Alex[RM-UK] : anyway, it installs the program. it's the same as "make install" (which is the usual way to install programs from source), except that it creates an Ubuntu package too, so you can remove the program later if you desire
[03:29] <Alex[RM-UK] > oooo nice nice,
[03:29] <david__> How do I enable a Scroll Wheel   on my usb mouse
[03:29] <bDerrly> gnomefreak, c'mon now, i'm not asking how to use dapper...i'm asking if anyone else has done an upgrade today and their xserver died on them
[03:29] <bDerrly> david__, Option ZAxisMapping "4 5" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the mouse section
[03:29] <bDerrly> it should already be configured though
[03:30] <crimsun> bDerrly: does the X server not start at all?
[03:30] <bDerrly> crimsun, nope
[03:30] <crimsun> bDerrly: or is it just gdm
[03:30] <david__> ok thanx
[03:30] <bDerrly> either gdm or startx both die
[03:30] <gnomefreak> bDerrly, i understand that all i am saying is that not many people are using it
[03:30] <crimsun> bDerrly: what about xinit ?
[03:30] <melonipoika> ok, now automatix is running perfectly... but i cannot understand why the repositories were for horay isnted of been for breezy...
[03:30] <david__> I just pluged it in... it works but not scroll wheel,should I restart?
[03:30] <crimsun> gdm will fail because /usr/X11R6/bin/X no longer exists
[03:31] <crimsun> you can kludge around that by changing instances of that to /usr/bin/Xorg
[03:31] <robotgeek> melonipoika: you might want to lock the root account, with 'sudo passwd -l root'
[03:31] <Aradorn> whats the config file that stores what resolutions you can use?
[03:31] <Stevie[Belgium] > Hello is there someone who can explain me how I can install realplayer plugin for firefox?
[03:31] <melonipoika> has anyone succed installing kiax on ubuntu?
[03:31] <LjL> Aradorn: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:32] <Aradorn> k thought so
[03:32] <melonipoika> robotgeek, thanks
[03:32] <Aradorn> some reason when i upgraded the kernel its only allowing me to boot into 640x480 =\
[03:32] <bDerrly> crimsun, hmmm, that doesn't seem very smart to bork gdm like that  :)
[03:32] <LjL> !tell Stevie[Belgium]  about RestrictedFormats
[03:32] <bDerrly> crimsun, even considering that however, X still doesn't start with startx...
[03:33] <bDerrly> crimsun, or xinit
[03:33] <araka> hi everyone
[03:33] <araka> anyone
[03:33] <Kamping_Kaiser> hi araka
[03:34] <mx-r> need help - is there some firewall that comes by default with ubuntu? i get NAT error on testing a port although it should be open.
[03:34] <araka> hi Kamping_Kaiser
[03:34] <SatanG> i'm trying to install ndiswrapper1.5 but u cant use make distclean, make, make install?
[03:34] <Kamping_Kaiser> mx-r: iptables is part of the kernel, but by default it allows everything
[03:34] <LjL> SatanG: you're missing a part, that's "make distclean; ./configure; make; sudo checkinstall"
[03:34] <mx-r> hmm, ok...
[03:35] <araka> i am just totally new to linux stuffs...so what may do i need to know
[03:35] <mx-r> Kamping_Kaiser, then I will just look once more to check the config...
[03:35] <mx-r> Kamping_Kaiser, hmm, now it somehow worked out. it just took longer to probe the port. the app was azureus by the way - it first seemed that it did not get past the port test
[03:36] <LjL> SatanG: anyway, ndiswrapper apparently is a kernel modules, which complicates things more than a little
[03:36] <SatanG> LjL, huh? it doesnt work
[03:36] <Kamping_Kaiser> mx-r: hm. havent heard that one before, but good you worked it out
[03:36] <zeeky> hello
[03:36] <Ethan> ubot is not there ....
[03:36] <ripoff> hi
[03:36] <lord_rob> Does Ubuntu enable a firewall by default for external internet access ?
[03:37] <LjL> SatanG: no, i suppose it doesn't, 'cause kernel modules cannot be compiled just like normal programs
[03:37] <LjL> SatanG: i can't help you here, except for...
[03:37] <zeeky> hey do you know how to make a rpm a deb?
[03:37] <LjL> !tell Satang about ndiswrapper
[03:37] <melonipoika> is there any benefict when patching the kernel with con kolivas patches?
[03:37] <lord_rob> zeeky: alien
[03:37] <zeeky> wait
[03:37] <zeeky> lol i joined wrong channal
[03:37] <araka> hi Kamping_Kaiser ..am just new to linux so what could be next...i just installed ubuntu
[03:37] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell zeeky  about alien
[03:37] <mx-r> Kamping_Kaiser, the thing simply was that usually Azureus does this quickly - if port is not open it says NAT error, when its fine it says OK. now it did not do anything for longer time but the second time I tried it worked out. first thought that there might be some firewall
[03:38] <SatanG> oh, i see
[03:38] <Pennywise^> Hi
[03:38] <zeeky> hi
[03:38] <vbhanu> I have two users vbhanu and vbhanu1 belonging to group1 and group2 groups,
[03:38] <bDerrly> crimsun, i've got /usr/X11R6/bin/X so gdm isn't dying there.  it has to do with the keyboard and mouse drivers...
[03:38] <vbhanu> now i want to make a file accessible to both of them
[03:38] <Kamping_Kaiser> mx-r: i havent use azeurus, so i don't know
[03:38] <vbhanu> but i cannot add vbhanu to group2 or vbanu1 to group2
[03:38] <vbhanu>  how do i do that
[03:38] <crimsun> bDerrly: then you're not encountering the normal issue.
[03:38] <vbhanu> neither do i want to create a new group
[03:38] <bDerrly> heh, hooray  ;-)
[03:39] <Pennywise^> I've a question... i'm running ubuntu and I'm going to install windows xp... after the install how can i restore the boot manager? I don't have a floppy drive... can I create a boot disk with my usb-pendrive?
[03:39] <bDerrly> Pennywise^, use a rescue disc and install grub again
[03:40] <Pennywise^> bDerrly, as i said I dont have a floppy drive :(
[03:40] <juliux> hi is here somebody who have an hp nx6110 ?
[03:40] <bigfoot1> I was given advice to "pkill evolution-data-server-1.4 ". How exactly do I go about doing this?
[03:40] <bDerrly> Pennywise^, the ubuntu disc or knoppix will work fine
[03:40] <sad157> Hello
[03:40] <sad157> I have a problem with Gtk
[03:40] <SatanG> LjL, thats how to set it up, but u dont know how i install it?
[03:40] <Pennywise^> bDerrly, I'm running ubuntu.. with the installation cd is possible to boot into my os?
[03:40] <araka> guys, how can i obtain an unofficial ubuntu app on cd
[03:41] <wickedpuppy> bigfoot1, type it in terminal
[03:41] <araka> add on i mean
[03:41] <sad157> http://benny.saitti.net/gtk.png how in the earth that font is so small and how can I easily change it back normal size?
[03:41] <bigfoot1> wickedpuppy: ah! thank you!!!
[03:41] <bDerrly> Pennywise^, i'm almost certain it is, i haven't used the ubuntu disc as a rescue disc in quite some time but i'm sure you can
[03:41] <wickedpuppy> bigfoot1, you do know what it does right ? :P
[03:42] <bigfoot1> wickedpuppy: not really. but i was told to do that to get rid of my data on evo2. (I'm wanting a clean slate on evo2 before i syny my pda)
[03:42] <gnomefreak> Pennywise^,  im pretty sure if you have a live cd you can use it to fix grub im not sure about install disk
[03:42] <wickedpuppy> bigfoot1, won't it be wiser to find out what it does before typing it ?
[03:42] <LjL> SatanG: as far as i can understand, it's *already* installed (perhaps an older version than the one you were trying, though). installing it "manually" will be a pain, as you will have to recompile the kernel, i suppose
[03:42] <wickedpuppy> i mean ... for all you care the command could be for wiping out the whole harddisk
[03:42] <bigfoot1> wickedpuppy: well i thought pkill sounded similar to xkill, so i'm not very worried.
[03:42] <SatanG> lol, ok
[03:43] <SatanG> thx anyway
[03:43] <Pennywise^> gnomefreak, then, if i boot a livecd... I will mount the root partition, and how can i reinstall grub?
[03:43] <wickedpuppy> bigfoot1, okie then :P
[03:43] <bigfoot1> wickedpuppy: if the command were something like rm or rf with a */ or /* then I'd probably confirm, but pkill sounded not that harmful
[03:44] <gnomefreak> Pennywise^, ok maybe i didnt understand something i thought you installed xp and than lost grub you were trrying to fix grub to boot to both oses
[03:44] <LjL> bigfoot1: try kill -9 1
[03:44] <Pennywise^> gnomefreak, yes, you have understood ;) sorry for my poor english
[03:44] <wickedpuppy> LjL, you can't kill init ... but you already knew that right :P
[03:45] <david__> I still cant get my wheel mouse to work
[03:45] <Pennywise^> gnomefreak, the question is: after I've installed winxp, and after i've boot the livecd... how can i make grub work again?
[03:45] <LjL> wickedpuppy: i didn't think of that honestly... but i did think that, without a "sudo", that wouldn't have done much anyway :)
[03:45] <wickedpuppy> LjL, even root can't kill init :P
[03:45] <Madeye> isn't there anyway to open safari ebooks on linux?
[03:46] <SatanG> is there another way than ndiswrapper?
[03:46] <sad157> pennywise, boot into your Linux with reascue disc and run grub. should be that easy?
[03:46] <gnomefreak> Pennywise^,  to fix grub you shouldnt have to mount anything if both oses are installed it should just  gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst go in and add winxp info to the grub list or if thats too hard reinstall ubuntu and it should find xp and allow you to boot to it
[03:46] <LjL> wickedpuppy: what about for (( i=1; i<65536; i++ )); do sudo kill -s 9 $i; done   then?
[03:47] <Pennywise^> Ok guys, i'll try in this way
[03:47] <bDerrly> LjL, oooh, that should be a fun one!
[03:47] <Pennywise^> many thanks!
[03:47] <sad157> am I really only one with problems caused by Gtk and fonts
[03:47] <LjL> actually, that might not work, because it could kill itself before it's killed the rest of the system
[03:48] <LjL> but, hey, that's called "giving a chance"
[03:48] <luisito> hello people
[03:48] <Duro_De_Peinar> nos dias voz
[03:48] <wickedpuppy> !es
[03:48] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:48] <LjL> don't think it's the right language
[03:49] <gnomefreak> im thinking its not spanish :(
[03:49] <psychocat> it is, he just mispelled one word
[03:49] <gnomefreak> im not sure tho
[03:49] <david__> how do I get an mouse wheel to work?
[03:49] <wickedpuppy> oh
[03:49] <gnomefreak> oh
[03:49] <wickedpuppy> thats not french either
[03:49] <Pennywise^> gnomefreak, the last question ;) but there isn't a way to install grub on my pen drive and run boot from it? (my motherboard does support boot through usb-devices)
[03:49] <LjL> psychocat: ah ok
[03:49] <LjL> wickedpuppy: and it's not italian
[03:49] <psychocat> he's asking for voice
[03:49] <viller> hi
[03:49] <gnomefreak> Pennywise^, i dont know
[03:49] <luisito> which is the name of  the configuration file for all the boot settings of ubuntu?
[03:49] <LjL> there's only pt left :)
[03:50] <gnomefreak> pt?
[03:50] <LjL> portuguese
[03:50] <gnomefreak> ah
[03:50] <wickedpuppy> david__, may i suggest that you paste ya xorg.conf on the pastebin and ask someone to look see if its right ?
[03:50] <viller> should /boot/grub/device.map have partitions listed in it or just hard drives?
[03:50] <Pennywise^> gnomefreak, ok, thx ;)
[03:50] <wickedpuppy> !pt
[03:50] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[03:50] <gnomefreak> Pennywise^,  sorry wasnt able to help more
[03:50] <LjL> why is the bot a woman when speaking portuguese?
[03:50] <david__> how do I do that?
[03:50] <viller> should /boot/grub/device.map have partitions listed in it or just hard drives?
[03:50] <gnomefreak> ubotu is a female now? you people confuse me :(
[03:51] <ubotu> Wish i knew, gnomefreak
[03:51] <ogra> robotgeek, but i can answer you here ;)
[03:51] <rob_p> LjL:  I wondered the same thing.  I just assumed it was after seeing that!  :-)
[03:51] <robotgeek> ogra: thanks
[03:51] <LjL> gnomefreak: i don't know, "she" said "obrigada", that's feminine
[03:51] <viller> should /boot/grub/device.map have partitions listed in it or just hard drives?
[03:51] <SatanG> how to solve: apt-get update
[03:51] <SatanG>  --> E: Type 'eb' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:51] <SatanG>   ?
[03:51] <wickedpuppy> david__, gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf ... copy the thing and paste onto the pastebin
[03:51] <ogra> robotgeek, the apps have gksudo in their .desktop files so enabling a root password only helps on console ...
[03:51] <viller> should /boot/grub/device.map have partitions listed in it or just hard drives?
[03:51] <robotgeek> ogra: so it basically leaves you with 2 superusers
[03:52] <david__> ok but where is the pastebin?
[03:52] <gnomefreak> SatanG, eb isnt a country code where did you get it from :(
[03:52] <cro-smiley> hi all
[03:52] <ogra> robotgeek, indeed you could edit all the .desktop files (which hold the menu entries) but that would be reverted on upgrades
[03:52] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell david__ about pastebin
[03:52] <viller> should /boot/grub/device.map have partitions listed in it or just hard drives?
[03:52] <ogra> robotgeek, nope, it leaves you with a sudo account and you have additionally enabled the root account ...
[03:52] <robotgeek> ogra: but the gksudo will work with the user's password
[03:52] <ogra> robotgeek, yup
[03:52] <viller> should /boot/grub/device.map have partitions listed in it or just hard drives?
[03:53] <maffju> viller: just hard drives afaik
[03:53] <Xenguy> Gnome Q: how can I list *all* apps in *all* workspaces?  Do I need an extra plug-in?
[03:53] <ogra> robotgeek, imho its totally pointless to enable root ... (others might disagree here :) )
[03:53] <robotgeek> ogra: so, it just makes the system inherently more vulnerable
[03:53] <robotgeek> ogra: i'm of the same opinion, but i need to know so that i can tell others :)
[03:54] <cro-smiley> does anyone know where can i find analog clock for Ubuntu?
[03:54] <viller> does the partition where i install grub need to be in a xfs filesystem?
[03:54] <ogra> robotgeek, it shouldnt make the system more vulnerable ... its just useless ...
[03:54] <gnomefreak> cro-smiley, synaptic  i thought i saw one yesterday
[03:55] <robotgeek> ogra: agreed. and a sudo passwd -l root will restore normalcy :)
[03:55] <SatanG> gnomefreak, apt-get update
[03:55] <SatanG> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[03:55] <SatanG> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[03:55] <robotgeek> SatanG: prefix sudo
[03:55] <bDerrly> SatanG, sudo
[03:55] <gnomefreak> SatanG, sudo apt-get update
[03:55] <psychocat> viller: no, it can even be an NTFS file system
[03:55] <david__> here is my xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/5088 ... my mouse hase 2 buttons and a scroll wheel... the scrole wheel can be pushed to be used as a middle button
[03:55] <SatanG> ohhh, its hard to get used
[03:55] <ogra> robotgeek, yup
[03:55] <robotgeek> ogra: appreciate your help
[03:55] <LjL> eb = elbonia
[03:55] <ogra> robotgeek, youre welcome :)
[03:56] <gnomefreak> LjL,  still never heard of it :(
[03:56] <bowubuntu> hehee
[03:56] <LjL> gnomefreak: i was just kidding :) "elbonia" is a fictionary country in Dilbert, at least in the italian translation
[03:56] <gnomefreak> LjL,  oh ok lol sorry
[03:56] <robotgeek> ogra: i pretty much hang in here 12 outta 24 hours. it was kinda redundant asking in here :)
[03:57] <mtupper> hey all, so real rookie ? here, how do I get a more updated package on my package list?  more specifically, wine is not working and someone on the #wine channel recommended reinstalling v. 0.9.2 instead of what Synaptic installed which was v. 0.0.20050725-0 ???
[03:57] <ogra> robotgeek, yes, but we dont pam the -dev channel with support stuff ;)
[03:57] <ogra> *spam
[03:57] <psychocat> LjL: it's on the english version too, lol
[03:57] <robotgeek> ogra: agreed, my bad.
[03:57] <ogra> dont worry
[03:57] <robotgeek> ogra: the question is, how do i find someone to bug. lol
[03:58] <viller> i get this error when installing grub 'xfs_freeze: specified file ["/boot/grub"]  is not on an XFS filesystem
[03:58] <viller> '
[03:58] <ogra> robotgeek, look in -dev and ping the people in here might work i guess ...
[03:58] <LjL> psychocat: well, i supposed so, but couldn't be sure, never read the english version (though i should, as i have some hundred megabytes of saved comics in english ;)
[03:58] <robotgeek> ogra: good idea. tht shud work
[03:58] <psychocat> LjL: holy cow
[03:59] <cool_guy20> hey everyone..i want to know how to disable identd/authd..
[03:59] <LjL> psychocat: well my Debian server is downloading the new strips every night... there's a program specifically to download comics
[03:59] <LjL> psychocat: i mean, a program in the Debian reps
[03:59] <cool_guy20> its interfering with my username in xchat...
[04:00] <LjL> psychocat: it's "dailystrips" and i've found it in the ubuntu reps as well :)
[04:00] <psychocat> LjL: i get the dilbert comic sent to my work pc everyday.
[04:00] <LjL> psychocat: i have them on my debian
[04:00] <LjL> psychocat: i have them on my debian's internal webserver
[04:00] <psychocat> LjL: nice :)
[04:00] <Balduran> can somebody help me with a network problem?
[04:01] <rob_p> cool_guy20:  Are you running an auth server?  If not, then there's nothing to disable.
[04:01] <psychocat> Balduran: just ask away
[04:01] <cool_guy20> rob_p: i dint setup anything like that myself...
[04:02] <Balduran> psychocat: i want that  1 network card send the signals that it gets to another card..
[04:02] <kakei> any idea of why when i try to install ubuntu i get http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/7008/ubuntu0352kt.jpg i have try with ubuntu and ubuntu64
[04:02] <fredux> hello, comment je fais pour dsinstaller un programme ?
[04:02] <bob31984> can anyone help me with getting my usb external hard drive working? i have modprobe'd some modules but i'm sort of stabbing in the dark here
[04:03] <Cole> balduran: are you trying to set up the computer as a gateway? or something to that affect?
[04:03] <Balduran> Cole:  http://balduran.de/images2/room.jpg << the desktop pc is now a ubuntu pc... i need internet on the network.. i think i need something like ip forwarding maybe??
[04:04] <LjL> psychocat: put them on the webserver so that the rest of my family could read them too, but they're too lazy to learn enough english to understand comics ;-\ i should find an handwriting-OCR and a decent machine translator... hey, perhaps i'll have them in 20 years or so :)
[04:04] <rob_p> cool_guy20:  There isn't an auth server installed/enabled by default so unless you installed and enabled one, you don't have one.  An exception to that would be a NAT server, which provides your Internet connectivity, having an auth server on it.
[04:04] <cool_guy20> rob_p: oh..ok thanks
[04:05] <rob_p> cool_guy20:  I could hit your port 113 to see if auth services are being offered if you like.
[04:06] <cool_guy20> rob_p: i connect from behind  a proxy server..so i guess that might be the thing..
[04:06] <Zedugh> fredux: 'sudo apt-get remove <package>' (leaves config files), or 'sudo apt-get purge <package>' (removes all files for package)
[04:06] <nceterval> Hello, after nothing but a reboot my Breezy machine is no longer connecting to the network.  No hardware changes were made, I'm sure it is a software problem.  Attempts to ping the machine from others in the network find it 'unreachable'.  Is there some sort of service I might have foolishly disabled, a module to be loaded, or something?
[04:06] <six66power> hello i just installed ubuntu for the first time and im trying to network with my windows pc for file and printer sharing, can someone help me with this
[04:07] <XIII> hi
[04:07] <hzg> hi
[04:07] <six66power> hello
[04:07] <augustin> hello
[04:07] <_moss> is it safe to upgrade from i386 to i686*
[04:07] <augustin> anyone using alltray here ?
[04:07] <rob_p> cool_guy20:  Ahh.  Then it's very possible it's configured to provide auth service.  Any chance of having the admin use a NAT friendly ident server?  I think oidentd is one which supports it.  Anyway, good luck with it.
[04:07] <_moss> using adept* ?
[04:08] <Cole> balduran: i'll be honest.. thats out of my realm of knowledge.. i know its duable.. but i've never done it
[04:08] <cantona> _moss: how?
[04:08] <XIII> i installed breezy 5.10 , i found my windows opens as a folder per window not in the same window so it opens so much windows what can i do?
[04:08] <_moss> is it safe to upgrade to i686 kernel using adept from i386?
[04:08] <cool_guy20> rob_p: thanks for the help
[04:09] <rob_p> cool_guy20:  np
[04:09] <cantona> _moss: yes
[04:09] <_moss> it wont break anything?
[04:09] <augustin> when i use alltray, the window just disappears and i can't find the minimized version anywhere... what am i missing ? where do they go ? i'm confused...
[04:09] <six66power> any one know about networking with a windows pc?
[04:09] <XIII> rob_p can u help in that?
[04:10] <_moss> how do i edit grub
[04:10] <Alex[RM-UK] > Hey,
[04:10] <_moss> ?
[04:10] <Alex[RM-UK] > im following a guide ant it says:
[04:10] <Alex[RM-UK] > As there is no KDE Control Center any more, there's no LooknFeel. So where would Behavior be?
[04:10] <gnomefreak> i386-i686 is a processer speed dependsing on your intel chip you get closest too it?
[04:10] <Alex[RM-UK] > where would behavior be?
[04:10] <psychocat> _moss: what do you want to do?
[04:10] <_moss> remove i386 from grub
[04:11] <psychocat> _moss: you want to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[04:11] <_moss> ok
[04:11] <XIII> ppl, i need help in that it confuses me
[04:11] <_moss> 1 more thing, if i get a USB network adapter (wireless) will it work straight away?
[04:12] <augustin> when i use alltray, the window just disappears and i can't find the minimized version anywhere... what am i missing ? where do they go ? i'm confused...
[04:12] <gnomefreak> XIII, is you ask you shall recieve :)
[04:12] <gnomefreak> maybe*
[04:12] <XIII> i did
[04:12] <XIII> i installed breezy 5.10 , i found my windows opens as a folder per window not in the same window so it opens so much windows what can i do?
[04:12] <nceterval> Alex[RM-UK] : KDE Control Center is reachable via command 'kcontrol', I believe.
[04:12] <gnomefreak> huh????
[04:12] <candlelight> hi, qmail is not in ubuntu repository?
[04:12] <gnomefreak> !qmail
[04:12] <ubotu> gnomefreak: Are you smoking crack?
[04:13] <hzg> i installed ubuntu and xp in one machine,but i want to delete grub.  how to do?
[04:13] <gnomefreak> yes :(
[04:13] <gnomefreak> hes so mean to me
[04:13] <rob_p> XIII:  I'm guessing it's maybe in Nautlis --> Edit --> Preferences somewhere...
[04:13] <Zedugh> moss, re USB wireless adaptor, look here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards?highlight=%28usb%29%7C%28wifi%29
[04:14] <stratovarius> hey who can tell me a good how to to create a ftp server?
[04:14] <XIII> hzg u should adjust the linux root dev as bootable from the ubuntu setup cd
[04:14] <gnomefreak> XIII, do you mean they are not tabbed?
[04:14] <nkolas20> i'm trying to edit a file using the GUI and it wont let me because i dont have the permission. how can i change without using the cli?
[04:14] <XIII> no, i mean every click opens a new window gnomefreak
[04:14] <Ethan> nkolas20: cli?
[04:14] <gnomefreak> XIII,  so does mine :(
[04:15] <nkolas20> command line
[04:15] <XIII> it's ok, anyway what is the solution u think?
[04:15] <stratovarius> nobody can help me?
[04:15] <XIII> i can't find it in this new copy
[04:15] <Zedugh> nkolas20, use cli ( a term ) to start gui editor, in term type 'sudo gedit <filename>'
[04:15] <Ethan> nkolas20: you could start a gui program from the cli
[04:16] <ketaset> is there a dpkg command to query which packages depend on a particular package?
[04:16] <LjL> ketaset: dpkg --info, i think'
[04:16] <XIII> gnomefreak is there a way to solve that?
[04:16] <nkolas20> thanks
[04:17] <gnomefreak> read what rob_p  said lil ways up from here
[04:17] <_moss> :)
[04:17] <_moss> lot quicker on i686
[04:17] <XIII> i did but i have no nautlis here
[04:17] <_moss> than i386
[04:18] <gnomefreak> XIII, what desktop are you using?
[04:18] <XIII> gdm
[04:18] <gnomefreak> nautlis is the file system for gdm XIII
[04:18] <gnomefreak> it might be for kde too but i not sure on kde
[04:19] <dooglus> nautilus is a file manager, not a file system. ubuntu uses ext3 as its file system by default
[04:19] <gnomefreak> file manager i think its called
[04:19] <candlelight> during installation, i tried to specify "var/log" for lvm but it couldn't generate the volume, how to create such mount point without using command line?
[04:19] <gnomefreak> dooglus,  i was fixing it
[04:19] <dooglus> gnomefreak: so i see :)
[04:19] <dooglus> kde uses konqueror
[04:20] <gnomefreak> i re read it after i typed it and said sh*t thats not right
[04:20] <gnomefreak> lol
[04:20] <psychocat> _moss: I'm not sure on that.   I don't.
[04:21] <gnomefreak> dooglus, but you do have to have a file manager right?
[04:21] <dooglus> gnomefreak: no, I don't use them.  I don't see any benefit from having some program draw little pictures of all my files.
[04:21] <psychocat> you can do it by cli
[04:21] <dooglus> gnomefreak: if I want to see a list of my files, I type "ls"
[04:21] <XIII> noway, i can't find it in this version
[04:22] <gnomefreak> oh ok well im assuming since his problem is too many windows open than he is running something
[04:22] <psychocat> he's running nautilus
[04:23] <gnomefreak> XIII, open your home folder and click edit than click prfferences and look for it in there
[04:23] <XIII> do u use breezy gnomefreak?
[04:24] <Zedugh> XIII, edit>preferences>behavior, uncheck 'always open in brower windows'
[04:24] <gnomefreak> XIII,  yes i do have breezy
[04:24] <XIII> open it and try to find it gnomefreak then tell me
[04:24] <Zedugh> XIII, edit>preferences>behavior, uncheck 'always open in brower windows'
[04:25] <XIII> it's not like the older version
[04:25] <gnomefreak> Zedugh, just told you XIII  where to find it
[04:25] <XIII> Zedugh it's not the problem as it's already unchecked from the begining
[04:26] <Zedugh> XIII, im on breeay, gnome, and it controls the windows behavior for me
[04:26] <psychocat> XIII: try killall nautilus after it, just in case the changes aren't happening right away
[04:26] <XIII> i need to open the folders in the same window not to open each folder in a diffirent window
[04:26] <Madeye> guys, i'm plugging new HDD, now with gparted do I have to create it as primary or extended, and for filesystem ext2 or ext3 ? NOTE: it will be used as extra storage for linux only
[04:27] <gnomefreak> XIII,  i dont think folders will open in same window but files will
[04:27] <XIII> i mean not to open a NEW WINDOW
[04:27] <psychocat> Madeye: primary and you can do either file system
[04:28] <Madeye> psychocat, what's the difference between them? and is it going to be auto mounted? How to access it later?
[04:28] <gnomefreak> XIII, ok look FOLDERS open in differetn WINDOWS. FILES will open in same WINDOW i have mine set the same way with it unchecked and thats what happens
[04:28] <Zedugh> Madeye, you need to start with a primary (if you only want 1 partition, then 1 primary) , then, your choice of ext2, ext3, reiserfs, etc
[04:29] <cubex> hello everyone
[04:29] <cubex> how can i disable AGPGART and use nvidia-agp instead?
[04:29] <XIII> never i got a solution from this server really i'm so stupid to think i could find an answer here, really shit
[04:29] <cubex> i think agpgart is loaded on startup, right?
[04:29] <psychocat> Madeye: you'll have to enter the information into /etc/fstab for it to automount every time
[04:29] <Alex[RM-UK] > I just downloaded Baghira, but the images files are .png.V ... why the V?
[04:29] <cubex> i need to enable AGP FastWrites, maybe get some more FPS :)
[04:30] <augustin> when i use alltray, the window just disappears and i can't find the minimized version anywhere... what am i missing ? where do they go ? i'm confused...
[04:30] <cubex> the /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status says i have AGPGART loaded and FastWrties is disabled
[04:31] <luisito> how I change the kubuntu boot style back to the ubuntu boot style?
[04:32] <kitsune> Howdy, anyone there who maybe canhelp me out?
[04:32] <psychocat> Madeye: google for the differences.  lot to type :)
[04:33] <imajuchi> does any one knows or have a cannon multifunction printer f80 working in ubuntu
[04:33] <psychocat> kitsune: just ask your question
[04:33] <imajuchi> or if you have any info on how can i set up my f80 printer
[04:34] <gnomefreak> how do you run the abs guide?
[04:34] <psychocat> imajuchi: check linuxprinting.org
[04:34] <Madeye> psychocat, i'm getting this
[04:34] <kitsune> I've got this problem, I can't connect to the internet, although I can acces the network and router
[04:34] <imajuchi> thank you psychocat
[04:34] <Madeye> Error while creating /dev/hdb1
[04:34] <Madeye> Be aware that the failure to apply this operation could affect other operations on the list.
[04:35] <psychocat> Madeye: what systax did you use
[04:35] <Madeye> psychocat,  i'm using gParted.
[04:35] <iamkirk> Unable to Eject Media umount: /media/cdrom0: device is busy
[04:35] <iamkirk> umount: /media/cdrom0: device is busy
[04:35] <iamkirk> eject: unmount of `/media/cdrom0' failed
[04:35] <iamkirk> anyone help me ?
[04:36] <iamkirk> im trying to install cs on cedega
[04:36] <Amaranth> iamkirk: and cedega locked your drive
[04:36] <Amaranth> iamkirk: kill cedega and you can eject
[04:37] <psychocat> Madeye: so you have hdb selected
[04:37] <BenDrake> hola
[04:37] <psychocat> Madeye: what did you do next
[04:38] <cubex> guys please, how can i disable agpgart from loading?
[04:38] <cubex> i need to load nvidia-agp instead, but i'm not sure why
[04:38] <cubex> err, not sure how
[04:38] <kitsune> Can anyone help me? I can't acces the internet in ubuntu, but I could in Win 98 and XP...
[04:38] <psychocat> cubex: you may have to reconfigure the x server
[04:38] <BenDrake> i was wondering, is gnome the only WM for ubuntu?
[04:38] <Madeye> psychocat, create new -> primary -> ext3
[04:38] <cubex> psychocat but it has nothing to do with x
[04:38] <BenDrake> what kind of connection do you have kitschd
[04:38] <cubex> psychocat it's a kernel module
[04:38] <BenDrake> er.. kitsune rather
[04:39] <psychocat> cubex: you may have to recompile, not sure though
[04:39] <kitsune> I've got ADSL
[04:39] <cubex> psychocat why would i need to recompile it?
[04:39] <kitsune> BenDrake, I connect via a router
[04:39] <Zedugh> cubex, from where did you get nvidia-agp?
[04:39] <BenDrake> kitsune open a konsole window
[04:39] <caonex> how long does it take to receive the cds, once they have been sent to the shipping company? Mine were sent to the company on 8-22-05 and still have not gotten them, is this normal?
[04:40] <cubex> Zedugh nvidia-glx
[04:40] <BenDrake> kitsune: then run pppoeconf
[04:40] <cubex> Zedugh actually, linux-restritcted-modules
[04:40] <Zedugh> cubex, yes, but from where did you download nvidia-agpx
[04:40] <Zedugh> nvidia-agp*
[04:40] <cubex> Zedugh i got it from that package, linux-restricted-modules-386
[04:41] <kitsune> Bendrake, pppoeconf? how do I do that?
[04:41] <kitsune> just type it in the terminal?
[04:41] <BenDrake> kitsune: do you have a terminal open?
[04:41] <cubex> Zedugh i added nvidia-agp to /etc/modules and it loads just fine, but it's useless if agpgart is loaded on boot
[04:41] <BenDrake> kitsune: u have to be SU
[04:42] <kitsune> okay
[04:43] <BenDrake> kitsune: enter your info.. username and pass... then just keep hitting enter to till its done  :)
[04:43] <topyli> cubex: perhaps editing /etc/hotplug/blacklist might help
[04:43] <gnomefreak> is there a way to run the abs guide (advanced bash scripting guide)
[04:44] <BenDrake> oooh, I may have missed it.. but is gnome the only window manager for ubuntu?:
[04:44] <topyli> to run it? it's a bash guide, not a bash script :)
[04:44] <gnomefreak> BenDrake, nope there are alot
[04:44] <BenDrake> oooooooh, gravy
[04:44] <cubex> topyli that's what i did right now, i'm trying it out
[04:45] <gnomefreak> Topyli yes that i know but i would like to open it so i can read it
[04:45] <cubex> topyli the only problem is that agpgart is loaded whenever *any* module that depends on it is loaded
[04:45] <gnomefreak> typeing abs-guide in terminal doesnt work and thats what synaptic calls it
[04:45] <topyli> cubex: oh of course. hrm
[04:45] <kitsune> Bendrake, I'm back, it didn't work, its said "not connected"
[04:46] <cubex> topyli i don't think there's a way to completely remove agpgart without recompiling the kernel
[04:46] <Zedugh> cubex, is your motherboard based on an nvidia chipset?
[04:46] <cubex> Zedugh yep, nForce3
[04:46] <gnomefreak> BenDrake,  as a matter of fact im installing xfce window manager in ubuntu as we speak
[04:46] <erisco> why do i have all these duplicate files with a "~" at the end? how can i stop these from being made?
[04:46] <cubex> topyli i don't think there's a way to completely remove agpgart without recompiling the kernel
[04:46] <BenDrake> hmmmm.... did you enter your username and pass correctly?
[04:46] <cubex> topyli sorry
[04:46] <kitsune> yeah
[04:47] <cubex> guys, i just added amd64_agp and agpgart to the end of /etc/hotplug/blacklist... it worked =)
[04:47] <Zedugh> cubex, have you tried 'lsmod | grep nvidia'?
[04:47] <kitsune> well, when I typed "Su", it wanted my password, but I couldn't input one
[04:47] <cubex> Zedugh yeah, i need to load both nvidia and nvidia-agp in order to get this to run
[04:47] <topyli> cubex: yeah well, that would work
[04:47] <BenDrake> whoah... u have to be superuser.....
[04:47] <gnomefreak> kitsune,  su is not active in ubuntu use sudo infront of the command
[04:47] <cubex> thanks a lot for the tip
[04:48] <cubex> i'm going to play more with my ubuntu desktop
[04:48] <BenDrake> ooh, that could be the reason.. sorry kitsune
[04:48] <cubex> thanks guys
[04:48] <cubex> see you later
[04:48] <gnomefreak> !su
[04:48] <ubotu> No idea, gnomefreak
[04:48] <gnomefreak> !sudo
[04:48] <ubotu> methinks sudo is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RootSudo
[04:48] <kitsune> gnomefreak, so I should so should input "!sudo pppoeconf" ?
[04:49] <BenDrake> no
[04:49] <BenDrake> just "sudo pppoeconf
[04:49] <BenDrake> er  "sudo pppoeconf"   rather..
[04:49] <thak> join #ltsp
[04:49] <misfit_toy> does anyone know how to make the nvidia-settings stay on next reboot? I've googled and can't seem to find anything on that.
[04:49] <kitsune> okay, thx, be right back, thx
[04:49] <BenDrake> no quotes when you enter it.
[04:50] <gnomefreak> kitsune, same as a su command but instead of doing the su your command would look like 'sudo apt-get install .........'
[04:50] <mcfergus> hi
[04:51] <mcfergus> apparently your last kernel update makes the kernel die with "kernel panic: unable to mount VFS on node blah blah "
[04:51] <mcfergus> I can't boot anymore, is there any solution to this ?
[04:51] <BenDrake> hm, i have ubuntu installing on my laptop..  wonder if I should install it on my desktop...
[04:52] <sziszi> hi all
[04:52] <kitsune> I'm back, it just said the same again: "the access concentrator of your provider did not respont, please check your network and cables"
[04:52] <sziszi> i recently installed ubuntu and i have a problem with DVI display
[04:52] <sziszi> i wonder if anyone can help me out with this
[04:53] <sziszi> i have no image when i switch to the console
[04:53] <Zedugh> kitsuni, adsl or cable, pppoe/pppoa or other?
[04:53] <sziszi> and only with DVI connection
[04:53] <BenDrake> back..
[04:53] <kitsune> ADSL, well, I connect via a standard network cable to a router
[04:54] <gnomefreak> wb BenDrake
[04:54] <BenDrake> ubuntu run alright on a p3500 w/256mb ram?
[04:54] <BenDrake> thanks gnomefreak
[04:54] <Ethan> how do I install flash?
[04:54] <Ethan> sudo apt-get install flashplayer-mozilla said not found....
[04:55] <Ethan> and I guess i have multiverse
[04:55] <gnomefreak> BenDrake,  i dont see why not but linux depends on hardware your hardware may not be same as mine so hard for me to say
[04:55] <BenDrake> ahhh, ic.. i have mandrake 10.1 on it now.. and ubuntu installing on my 1.8 laptop
[04:55] <dylan_> i get this error when doing a sudo hdparm /dev/hdc /dev/hdd:  HDIO_GETGEO failed: Invalid argument
[04:55] <dylan_> what does that mean?
[04:55] <BenDrake> kitsune: hows your pppoe coming?
[04:56] <Zedugh> kitsune, you probably have pppoe, and need to 'logon to your provider', need a pppoe client, or in your router, use admin functions to have your router sign in for you
[04:56] <Zedugh> kitsune, you need to know the pppoe userid/password your provider wants you to sign in as
[04:56] <kitsune> zedugh, I should log onto the router?
[04:56] <HappyFool> dylan_: i get that too; my /dev/hdc is a dvd-rom, and doesn't support certain operations
[04:56] <Zedugh> kitsune, yes, l
[04:56] <HappyFool> dylan_: you should still be able to enable DMA etc etc
[04:56] <kitsune> pppoe? but I've never heard of it before...
[04:57] <BenDrake> its like having dialup, without the dialup
[04:57] <dylan_> HappyFool, i can only enable DMA using bootmisc.sh...is something wrong?  hdparm.conf does NOTHING.
[04:57] <BenDrake> kitsune: er? ppp-over-ethernet.. as opposed to a modem
[04:57] <kitsune> Bendrake, oh
[04:57] <cifer> hmm i cant set my desktop resolution on something higher then 1024x768
[04:57] <kitsune> I see
[04:57] <BenDrake> did you open pppoeconf yet?
[04:57] <HappyFool> dylan_: hdparm.conf has fairly fussy syntax
[04:57] <kitsune> what does pppoa mean then?
[04:58] <dylan_> HappyFool, can you help at all?
[04:58] <Zedugh> kitsune, its point-to-point protocol over ethernet ( instead of ppp over dialup)
[04:58] <kitsune> Bendrake, yes
[04:58] <HappyFool> dylan_: you can put it up on the pastebin (paste.ubuntuliux.nl) and I'll see if it looks ok
[04:58] <kitsune> it said: "the access concentrator of your provider did not respont, please check your network and cables"
[04:58] <BenDrake> okay, and you input your info right<EMAIL_ADDRESS>er whatever
[04:58] <dylan_> HappyFool, ill do that under the name dylan_
[04:58] <BenDrake> ooh, than its your router..
[04:58] <dylan_> HappyFool, Firefox tells me that web site does not exist
[04:59] <BenDrake> what else is plugged into your router?
[04:59] <kitsune> Bendrake, I don't have that kind of info, I have never had to log in....
[04:59] <HappyFool> dylan_: http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/ -- i'm viewing it right now
[04:59] <HappyFool> oh
[04:59] <HappyFool> i typed it wrong before, sorry
[04:59] <dylan_> thats weird.
[04:59] <HappyFool> i type liunx
[05:00] <dylan_> HappyFool, its up! ;)
[05:00] <Zedugh> kitsune, if you setup your connection  on a winbox, (using cd from provider) it happened "automagically"
[05:00] <BenDrake> hmm, maybe its not the "new"dsl..... you have to contact your provider for the info.. otherwise your network connection should be active on its own via dchp.. am i right?
[05:00] <opnsrc> I downloaded xboard-4.2.7.tar.gz
[05:01] <opnsrc> I extracted the directory in it to xboard-4.2.7
[05:01] <Zedugh> kitsune, if your router is connected to adsl modem, there should be an IP address for your modem, you can open it (with browser), and look for signon page, and also possibly test page that tests basic connection to provider
[05:01] <opnsrc> Read the readme file and it says type ./configure
[05:01] <opnsrc> then type make
[05:01] <kitsune> Bendrake, I have no idea. In windows, I just have to open explorer, and internet works right away
[05:01] <opnsrc> I typed ./configure it did something, then I typed make and it says
[05:01] <HappyFool> dylan_: hmm. looks ok
[05:01] <kitsune> I don't even have to do anything with my router...
[05:01] <BenDrake> hmm, did you set up your own windows box?
[05:01] <opnsrc> bash: make: command not found
[05:02] <Madeye> guys If i burn some files on DVD can CD reader read it?
[05:02] <opnsrc> How do i fix it?
[05:02] <HappyFool> dylan_: i've done something a bit different, though
[05:02] <kitsune> Zedugh, yeah, I can log onto my router
[05:02] <dylan_> HappyFool, whats that?
[05:02] <kitsune> Bendrake, what do you mean?
[05:02] <HappyFool> dylan_: i changed /etc/default/hdparm
[05:02] <Zedugh> kitsune, you should also be able to log on to your adsl modem
[05:02] <opnsrc> Doesn't Ubuntu come with a compiler?
[05:02] <BenDrake> did you order your internet?
[05:02] <HappyFool> dylan_: i have a line   harddisks="/dev/hdc" and a second line "hdparm_opts="-d1"
[05:02] <kitsune> I don't have an ADSL modem, it's built into my router
[05:02] <BenDrake> gah?
[05:03] <kitsune> Bendrake, dunno, so long time ago
[05:03] <HappyFool> dylan_: the comments tell you what to do -- you can probably figure it out. let me know if not
[05:03] <BenDrake> are you sure its adsl?
[05:03] <ardzeii> opnsrc: Install make. :)
[05:03] <kitsune> Yepp
[05:03] <HappyFool> dylan_: however, the /etc/hdparm.conf *should* still work
[05:03] <Zedugh> kitsune, ok, is there any 'test' or 'diagnostic'  pages on your router?
[05:03] <BenDrake> who is your isp?
[05:03] <Oetzi> hi can anyone tell where in boot-process bluez-utils are started
[05:03] <kitsune> Maybe, I'll go and check, be right back
[05:03] <kitsune> Bendrake, Telia
[05:04] <BenDrake> i donno..  hmmmm..
[05:04] <Oetzi> because i removed them from bootprocess some time ago but now i need them
[05:04] <dylan_> HappyFool, ok thanks...ill find out
[05:05] <Oetzi> the script os still in /etc/init.d/ but neither rcconf nor bum shows them to enable
[05:05] <dylan_> HappyFool, need i reboot after changing the files?
[05:05] <opnsrc> Where can I download make?
[05:05] <HappyFool> dylan_: i'm not sure how else you'd test it
[05:06] <ardzeii> Through Synaptic.
[05:06] <ardzeii> opnsrc: Through Synaptic.
[05:06] <dylan_> HappyFool, ok then ill be right back!
[05:06] <Oetzi> so if someone can tell me the number in bootprocess i can insert them manual
[05:06] <kitsune> Zedugh, I ran all teh tests I could, pinged my computer etc. Everything worked good
[05:06] <Zedugh> kitsune, any test to test your connection to your provider?
[05:07] <kitsune> nope
[05:07] <BenDrake> what are the reccomended specs for ubuntu?
[05:07] <ardzeii> kitsune: Tried pinging others aside from your computer? Like, uhh, try pinging google. :)
[05:07] <kitsune> Zedung and Bendrake, If it's a clue, I remember having the same problem with mandrake long ago, Konqueror worked great, but Opera and Mozzila didn't...
[05:07] <Zedugh> kitsune, any page like 'configure pppoe', 'configure signon', 'configure connection', 'setup', etc
[05:07] <chemaFPA> How to request another IP with DHCP in linux terminal, like "ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew in windows"
[05:07] <chemaFPA> ?
[05:08] <kitsune> Zedugh, yeah, the're is like 12 of them
[05:08] <kitsune> dunno what to configure though
[05:08] <kitsune> when it has always worked good before...
[05:08] <BenDrake> u cant use the net at all on your ubuntu box right?
[05:09] <kitsune> Bendrake, no, except the LAN works, and accessing the router
[05:09] <vbhanu> what is POSIX?
[05:09] <graabein> yo!
[05:09] <BenDrake> ooh my... im not sure..
[05:09] <vbhanu> what do we mean by POSIX compliant unix systems
[05:10] <Zedugh> kitsune, pretty sure you hardware/cables are ok, you need to configure to login to your provider.
[05:10] <HappyFool> dylan_: any luck?
[05:10] <dylan_> HappyFool, DMA is apparently enabled according to hdparm, but i think that's because of my editing of the bootmisc.sh
[05:10] <HappyFool> dylan_: ah
[05:10] <kitsune> Zedugh, okay, well, I guess I will have to go and look for the papers for my ISP
[05:10] <Zedugh> kitsune, you need to know the type of authentication they use, and your userid/password, or whatever info your provider requires
[05:10] <HappyFool> vbhanu: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posix
[05:10] <mcfergus> apparently your last kernel update makes the kernel die with "kernel panic: unable to mount VFS on node blah blah ". I can't boot anymore, is there any solution to this ?
[05:11] <opnsrc> it says you must run it through root user
[05:11] <kitsune> but as I said before: "If it's a clue, I remember having the same problem with mandrake long ago, Konqueror worked great, but Opera and Mozzila didn't..." Shouldn't the problem be with teh ports or something?
[05:11] <opnsrc> Uhm..... sudo synaptic ?
[05:11] <BenDrake> brb, going to icewm.. whoot
[05:11] <dylan_> HappyFool, well thanks for your help, HappyFool ... may i implore your help just once more?
[05:11] <opnsrc> yep
[05:11] <HappyFool> dylan_: sure
[05:11] <kitsune> What ports does Mozilla and Fire Fox use?
[05:11] <ardzeii> opnsrc: Yeah. There's also a menu item for synaptic. Found under System -- Admin.
[05:11] <Zedugh> kitsune, probably not, probably your problem before is not related to this
[05:12] <mcfergus> kitsune, any ports
[05:12] <chemaFPA> Some manual about network config based in DEBIAN/UBUNTU?
[05:12] <kitsune> OKay, i'LL TRY TO FIND TEH PAPERS, BE BACK LATER
[05:12] <opnsrc> what is make under?
[05:12] <kitsune> Sorry, caps lock
[05:12] <dylan_> HappyFool, im trying to configure my Network Proxy in GNOME.  I went to System - Preferences - Network Proxy and selected automatic configuration, typed in http://<IP_ADDRESS> , the URL of my router... gtk-gnutella still says im firewalled... i want everything to work properly becasue apparently Gaim gets mad @ me too whenever i attempt to send or receive files via Send File or Direct Connect.
[05:13] <ardzeii> opnsrc: Try searching for make.
[05:13] <HappyFool> dylan_: um
[05:13] <Zedugh> kitsune, you can install/look at package pppoeconf, but you router probably will do it for you, if you know how to configure it
[05:13] <Ethan> Hi
[05:13] <jeff_> hey guys
[05:13] <opnsrc> there it is
[05:13] <opnsrc> thanks
[05:13] <HappyFool> dylan_: isn't that only for http proxies?
[05:13] <jeff_> im having a problem with the 'calendar' section of evolution
[05:13] <ardzeii> opnsrc: Happy to help. :)
[05:14] <Ethan> I am trying to install flash but the *.deb is not found and I gess I have the multiverse....
[05:14] <dylan_> HappyFool, i dont know what kind of proxy i have..
[05:14] <kitsune> Zedugh, Okay, I'll see what I can find
[05:14] <dylan_> HappyFool, im new to this
[05:14] <opnsrc> great
[05:14] <opnsrc> thanks
[05:14] <opnsrc> I also added gnuchess
[05:14] <HappyFool> dylan_: i think the correct terminology for your router is 'gateway'
[05:14] <erUSUL> dylan_, you have to enable nat in the router. it has nothing to do with proxy setttings dsl and the like routers usually does not run proxys.
[05:14] <HappyFool> ah-ha
[05:14] <HappyFool> someone who knows, thank goodness
[05:15] <opnsrc> now it says no targets specified
[05:15] <opnsrc> or no makefile fonud
[05:15] <dylan_> erUSUL, can you help me do so?
[05:15] <opnsrc> Uhm.... I tried make install
[05:15] <HappyFool> opnsrc: what are you trying to compile/install?
[05:15] <opnsrc> xboard
[05:15] <HappyFool> isn't xboard in the repos?
[05:16] <sabmann> when I try to run totem I get an error: The video output is in use by another application. Please close other video applications, or select another video output in the Multimedia Systems Selector. But i'm definitely not using totem..
[05:16] <opnsrc> I can't find it
[05:16] <opnsrc> it's a chess game
[05:16] <HappyFool> opnsrc: it's in the 'universe' repository
[05:16] <HappyFool> !tell opnsrc about repos
[05:16] <ardzeii> opnsrc: Try to configure it first. If it doesn't need configurations, try make, then make install.
[05:16] <dooglus> I click the 'system' menu, then 'preferences', and then, before I can move down to find the thing I want, both menus close again.  what could be closing them?
[05:16] <opnsrc> I tried ./configure
[05:16] <dylan_> erUSUL, im logged into my router
[05:16] <erUSUL> dylan_, i do not know the exact problem. which programs you have problems with??
[05:16] <HappyFool> compiling it will be much more effort than just installing xboard from universe
[05:16] <HappyFool> you'll need x development libs etc etc
[05:17] <dylan_> erUSUL, gtk-gnutella and Gaim
[05:17] <opnsrc> thanks
[05:17] <dylan_> erUSUL, maybe more, but i dont know at this time
[05:17] <erUSUL> dylan_, i do not know wich router do you have so i can not know how to enable nat in it and open ports in the firewall. this is something you will have to read in docs

[06:01] (herzi/#ubuntu) mp3guy: there are two: and as i don't own that notebook, i'm not a fan of trial and error
[06:01] (spazzz/#ubuntu) ardzeii i got an error once about it failing or something, accidentally didn't hit save and it's been gone since
[06:02] (HappyFool/#ubuntu) llODxCOll: then you've miscopied the url
[06:02] (xjlittle/#ubuntu) spazzz: choose show desktop
[06:02] (llODxCOll/#ubuntu) i copied and pasted it
[06:02] (HappyFool/#ubuntu) llODxCOll: don't copy the bracket at the end
[06:02] (HappyFool/#ubuntu) err
[06:02] (spazzz/#ubuntu) where is this again?
[06:02] (ardzeii/#ubuntu) spazzz: Then right click on the panel, choose Add to Panel, then add the Show Desktop icon.
[06:02] (HappyFool/#ubuntu) oh, that's only in my version
[06:02] (llODxCOll/#ubuntu) it redirects me to wiki.ubuntu.com/sshhowto
[06:02] (Xenguy/#ubuntu) Hi - does anyone know Ubuntu's GNOME desktop well enough to answer this interface question: how can I list *all* apps in *all* workspaces?  Do I need an extra plug-in or not?
[06:02] (HappyFool/#ubuntu) llODxCOll: https://wiki.ubuntulinux.org/SSHHowto
[06:02] (HappyFool/#ubuntu) llODxCOll: ah, my apologies
[06:02] (xjlittle/#ubuntu) spazzz: right click on the toolbar on the bottom of the page
[06:02] (spazzz/#ubuntu) aah
[06:02] (spazzz/#ubuntu) thanks
[06:02] (HappyFool/#ubuntu) llODxCOll: i translated it in my head, sorry
[06:02] (ogami1972/#ubuntu) ok- the three erros are: "failed to find mixer element ADC", "sample format not available" and "failed to open pcm device (hw:2,0)"
[06:03] (xerophyte/#ubuntu) i am just wondering how can i  upgrade the FC4 box to fedora i have lots of data on the box so just wondering is there any ways to do it :(
[06:03] (llODxCOll/#ubuntu) ok thanks
[06:03] (qjimbo/#ubuntu) Basically, I need to move ubuntu to another harddrive
[06:03] <qjimbo> preferebly having the root inside another folder if thats possible
[06:03] <qjimbo> but I don't know where to start @_@
[06:04] <needvpn> I have a standard ubuntu installation.  How can I get a program to run whenever a USB device (a mass storage device) is connected to the computer (I want to automatically copy the data off it)
[06:04] <ogami1972> beb back
[06:05] <dooglus> Xenguy: see the little row of horizontal lines just to the left of the window list at the bottom of the screen?  right-click it and say preferences.  you can then tick 'show windows from all workspaces'
[06:05] <Xenguy> dooglus: checking...
[06:06] <qjimbo> oh yeah, thats pretty cool
[06:06] <stratovarius> guys why cant I create a link to a folder?
[06:06] <erUSUL> qjimbo, another folder???
[06:06] <skaja> how do i install cvs
[06:06] <skaja> err and download
[06:06] <m_akys> I can't copy original DVDs with k3b. It says: Cannot copy encrypted dvds
[06:06] <dooglus> stratovarius: you can only use symbolic links when linking to folders
[06:06] <dooglus> stratovarius: hard links are only for files
[06:07] <HappyFool> skaja: sudo aptitude install cvs
[06:07] <m_akys> anyone knows how to solve it?
[06:07] <qjimbo> erUSUL: yeah I want to move / into a folder on /dev/hda instead of /dev/hdb
[06:07] <stratovarius> dooglus:I gotta create a link to a folder in an other folder
[06:07] <qjimbo> and then configure grub to boot from it
[06:07] <stratovarius> how can I do?
[06:07] <erUSUL> qjimbo, you mean another partition.
[06:07] <qjimbo> I'll happily leave the swap partition on dev/hdb though
[06:07] <qjimbo> yeah
[06:07] <dooglus> stratovarius: "ln -s /folder/you/want/to/link/to /where/you/want/the/link"
[06:07] <feugan3333> erUSUL: chroot was the command I was looking for :-)
[06:07] <llODxCOll> someone wants to access my ssh server from the internet and i need to set that up step by step...can someone tell me how
[06:08] <stratovarius> dooglus tnx
[06:08] <m_akys> I can't copy original DVDs with k3b. It says: Cannot copy encrypted dvds. I need help
[06:09] <erUSUL> !tell m_akys about dvd
[06:09] <dooglus> !tell m_akys about how to become a l33t pirate
[06:09] <qjimbo> XD
[06:09] <idiot> m_akys i have the same problem
[06:09] <HappyFool> heh
[06:09] <HappyFool> aar, matey
[06:09] <idiot> !tell m_akys about how to become a l33t pirate
[06:09] <popey> YARRRRRR!
[06:09] <idiot> lol
[06:09] <idiot> Ill tell u
[06:09] <idiot> apt-get install vobcopy
[06:09] <xjlittle> llODxCOll: if it isn't exposed to the internet you will need to forward port 22 to the ssh server
[06:09] <idiot> it gets the css encryption from the disc
[06:10] <llODxCOll> how do i do that
[06:10] <xjlittle> llODxCOll: if it is exposed they simply need to connect to the public ip
[06:10] <dooglus> I was playing with "knockd" yesterday.  that works quite nicely.  you can get it to only expose port 22 after a secret 'port knock' has been received :)
[06:10] <qjimbo> llODxCOll: you'll have to access your routers control panel
[06:11] <qjimbo> if you have a router
[06:11] <llODxCOll> how?
[06:11] <m_akys> idiot: I have my original DVD and I want a backup of it, but I can't do it with k3b
[06:11] <xjlittle> llODxCOll: you'll have to read your router's manual-different for all makes of routers
[06:11] <qjimbo> well on my router I go to <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:11] <qjimbo> from a web browser
[06:11] <dooglus> llODxCOll: http://www.portforward.com/ is very good for getting help with port forwaring
[06:11] <erUSUL> qjimbo, boot from a live cd and mount the to partitions and then copy eveything from one to another '(cd /source/directory && tar cf - . ) | (cd /dest/directory && tar xvfp -)
[06:11] <llODxCOll> ok
[06:11] <erUSUL> ' will do the trick then update all things fstab grub etc to boot from the other partition
[06:12] <qjimbo> ooh right
[06:12] <stratovarius> dooglus: i'm tring to add a link in a ftp server so I linked a folder to /home/ftp but if I connect to my ftp server and I try to open that link it says me: 550 failed to change directory.how could I solve the problem?
[06:12] <dooglus> stratovarius: try in a shell to cd through the link.  does that work?
[06:13] <dooglus> stratovarius: just "cd /home/ftp" and see if you can see the files you're trying to share
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> stratovarius,  ftp servers often have a security 'feature' where they will NOT follow 'links'
[06:13] <stratovarius> dooglus:i dworks
[06:13] <erUSUL> stratovarius, for security reasons ftp server won't let you change directories or follow links
[06:14] <stratovarius> isnt there a way to solve this rpoblem?
[06:14] <dooglus> stratovarius: what FTP server is it?
[06:14] <stratovarius> i cant copy all the files to share in a new dir
[06:14] <stratovarius> vsftpd
[06:14] <dooglus> stratovarius: check the config file for the work 'link'
[06:14] <stratovarius> ok I'll check
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> when in doubt - read the docs for the ftp server :P
[06:15] <qjimbo> so erUSUL, how would I reconfigure grub to boot ubuntu from a folder called 'ubuntu' on /dev/hda?
[06:15] <qjimbo> so it would like, see that folder as the root
[06:15] <stratovarius> dogglus: i check in the /etc/vsftpd.conf file but there is no line with link as word
[06:16] <Projext> anyone with a wrt54g know the default router ip
[06:17] <dooglus> stratovarius: I don't see it either.
[06:17] <stratovarius> dooglus: so what do I have to do?
[06:17] <dooglus> stratovarius: perhaps vsftpd is using an account which can't cd to that place.  try making the permissions more - um - permissible?
[06:18] <feugan3333> Projext: think its <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:18] <Projext> thanks
[06:18] <dooglus> stratovarius: what login are you using when connecting to the ftp server? anon?  or what?
[06:18] <stratovarius> dogglus: root is the proprietary of the dir to share.cant 'be that the problem?
[06:18] <feugan3333> Projext: or <IP_ADDRESS> :-)
[06:18] <stratovarius> dooglus:anonymous
[06:19] <dooglus> stratovarius: I doubt if being owned by root would be the problem, so long as the dir is readable and executable by others. and the files are readable by others
[06:19] <stratovarius> dooglus:they are
[06:19] <dooglus> stratovarius: I'm trying it now.
[06:19] <feugan3333> Does anyone know how I could completely reinstall a package (eg grub)
[06:19] <stratovarius> ok
[06:20] <shingoki> 64 bit ubuntu has lots of weirdness, right? it's not just me?
[06:20] <dooglus> stratovarius: it fails for me too.  hang on a while & I'll see wha\t's happening
[06:20] <shingoki> like, stuff not running because it can't find the libraries, even though they are there?
[06:20] <feugan3333> 64 bit software has lots of weirdness
[06:20] <stratovarius> dooglus: tnx 4 the help I'll wait 4 u
[06:21] <shingoki> So I can just install the 32 bit version instead?
[06:21] <shingoki> I think I might do that
[06:22] <dooglus> stratovarius: I think what's going on is that the server is running inside a "chroot"
[06:22] <dooglus> stratovarius: so the /home/strat/... folder you're linking to doesn't exist, effectively
[06:23] <feugan3333> This is an interesting message from apt-get:
[06:23] <feugan3333> Need to get 0B/356kB of archives.
[06:23] <feugan3333> After unpacking 0B of additional disk space will be used.
[06:23] <Seveas> feugan3333, that's a quite normal message
[06:23] <erUSUL> qjimbo, you have to think about partitions not folders. grub uses (hd0,0) for /dev/hda1 and (hd1,1) for /dev/hdb2 from that you can figure out what to put in menu.lst to boot from the partition you want. this is fairly advanced stuff if you are not comfortable doing it you better not do it
[06:23] <nalioth> feugan3333: it's a top secret physics anomoly known only to linux users. SSSHHHH
[06:23] <Seveas> it means that the new version of what you are installing is as large as the old one
[06:24] <qjimbo> eep
[06:24] <Seveas> oop
[06:24] <stratovarius> dooglus:how to solve?
[06:24] <qjimbo> XD
[06:25] <Xenguy> dooglus: thanks for that tip.  It works for me, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for (I'd like to have the task bar list only apps in a given workspace, then be able to invoke separately a complete list of all apps, as in xfce4 or wmaker middle-click)
[06:26] <dooglus> stratovarius: that's what's happening.  while connected to the ftp server, run "for i in $(pgrep vsftpd); do ls -l /proc/$i/root; done".  you'll see one of the processes has a root of /home/ftp.  perhaps you can ask the ftp server not to chroot.  it's more of a security risk that way though.  alternatively, maybe you can ask it to chroot to the dir you want to share instead...
[06:26] <feugan3333> I don't suppose that its possible to umount the cdrom while using the live cd, is it?
[06:27] <El_Che> idd
[06:27] <stratovarius> dooglus: I cant understand.what should I do?
[06:27] <erUSUL> feugan3333, why would you want to do so?
[06:28] <dooglus> stratovarius: I'm still looking.  just a moment.
[06:28] <stratovarius> ok
[06:28] <dooglus> Xenguy: there's a 'window list' app or something which you can 'add to panel' after right-clicking on a bit of empty panel.  i don't use it, but it might be what you want
[06:29] <feugan3333> erUSUL so I can insert my Breezy install cd
[06:29] <xjlittle> feugan3333: are you wanting to reinstall or rescue your existing system?
[06:29] <erUSUL> feugan3333, why would you want to do so? (mount the install cd) ;)
[06:29] <Xenguy> dooglus: thanks again for your tip; I will double-check on that
[06:30] <feugan3333> Because I'm reinstalling grub, from a chroot terminal and it asking me to insert the install cd but the live cd is still in the drive :-)
[06:31] <ogami1972> ok- i'm really close to sorting this sound thing out- my current error is "Warning- alsa_setup(): sample format not available for playback: invalid argument"
[06:31] <cifer> hmm what do i need to run 32bit software with amd64 system?
[06:31] <feugan3333> I'm supposed to be the one asking the questions!
[06:31] <moox> Why using sound under linux is very complicated ? arts, gstreamer, xine, oss, alsa, etc... ?
[06:31] <feugan3333> :-)
[06:31] <mwe> on my laptop I have a windows partition and a ubuntu partition. now I want to get rid of the windows partition and have one large partition for ubuntu. is that possible without reinstalling?
[06:31] <erUSUL> feugan3333, disable the cd from sources.lst do an update and install from inet
[06:31] <ogami1972> and "warning: alsa_setup( hw:0,0)-failed to open pcm device: device or resource busy"
[06:32] <feugan3333> erUSUL, good idea.
[06:32] <qjimbo> :( inside menu.lst "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10-5-386 root=/dev/hdb1 ro quiet splash" I bet if I changed it to "/ubuntu/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10-5-386 root=/dev/hda1" it wouldn't work and same with  "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10-5-386 root=/dev/hda1/ubuntu" >_< I'm gonna have to rumage through loads of config stuff for this I bet
[06:32] <dooglus> stratovarius: do you only want to share one directory?
[06:32] <stratovarius> dooglus: yes I do
[06:32] <xjlittle> cifer: running 32 bit on amd 64 "just works" for me
[06:32] <dooglus> stratovarius: edit /etc/vsftpd.conf and add a line at the end saying anon_root=/home/chris/Desktop
[06:32] <jesus> lk
[06:32] <dooglus> (or whatever dir you want to share)
[06:33] <erUSUL> feugan3333, asking i was able to find the right solution XD
[06:33] <jesus> hello
[06:33] <dooglus> stratovarius: then "sudo invoke-rc.d vsftpd restart"
[06:33] <dooglus> stratovarius: (to restart the ftp server - don't know if you need to, but it won't hurt)
[06:34] <erUSUL> qjimbo, you have to put the (hdx,x) that correspond to the partition mounted under ../ubuntu
[06:34] <feugan3333> erUSUL: I'll be amazed if this works :-)
[06:34] <qjimbo> yeah I have done
[06:35] <stratovarius> dooglus
[06:35] <dooglus> Xenguy: it's called "Window Selector", not "Window List"
[06:35] <stratovarius> done all u said
[06:35] <dooglus> stratovarius?
[06:35] <qjimbo> I've noticed hd(0,0) is the drive it boots from, even if it's technically IDE1
[06:35] <feugan3333> Thanks you all for your help.
[06:35] <stratovarius> I did what u said now do I have to open my server ftp?
[06:35] <cifer> hmm i thought there is a special command ... i cant start cedega coz of 64bit ...
[06:35] <ogami1972> is there an "alsa_setup" file? if so where?
[06:36] <dooglus> stratovarius: you edited the conf file and restarted the ftp server?  that should be all you need to do.
[06:36] <huggys> Anyone know much about Presario 1700 laptops
[06:36] <dooglus> stratovarius: you can remove the link from /home/ftp using "rm".  it won't use /home/ftp anymore
[06:36] <erUSUL> ogami1972, you can writte your own .alsarc check alsa-project.org
[06:37] <stratovarius> dooglus:im trying to connect to my ftp server with firefox
[06:37] <dooglus> stratovarius: try using the command-line "ftp localhost" first
[06:37] <ogami1972> i have- i will again- it's just not very user-friendly- assumes i know alot more about linux than i do

[06:44] <luisito> I have breezy installed, later I installed the kubuntu-desktop, later on, one day when I powered on the pc  it shows the kubuntu startup boot image instead the ubuntu one. How I change that to ubuntu's default?
[06:46] <cifer> is there any way to run cedega when i have a 64bit system? (the package is for i386 system only)
[06:46] <f_newton> has ubuntu breezy got a java yet?
[06:47] <blanky> what happens when you have a tar.gz that you're not supposed to build, instead it has a folder called usr, and inside one called bin, lib, etc., do you just put the files in those folders in the corresponding folders on your pc?
[06:47] <walde> I am just playing around with luks. Is there a way to mount a device with luks-support via cryptdisks-script?
[06:48] <softwarepirate> Can anyone help me learn how to align my screen in ubuntu?
[06:48] <blanky> what happens when you have a tar.gz that you're not supposed to build, instead it has a folder called usr, and inside one called bin, lib, etc., do you just put the files in those folders in the corresponding folders on your pc?
[06:48] <blanky> in nautilus how can I make it have an address bar
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> blanky,  its like some alt-a or some key combo.
[06:49] <f_newton> hmmmm...
[06:49] <blanky> :(
[06:49] <blanky> blanky what happens when you have a tar.gz that you're not supposed to build, instead it has a folder called usr, and inside one called bin, lib, etc., do you just put the files in those folders in the corresponding folders on your pc?
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> blanky,  not seen a way to make it always use the address bar.
[06:50] <blanky> ah, can you answer my previous question, if you can?
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> as for your tar.gz.. i'd be VERY suspect at a program thats distributed in such a way
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> you can perhaps cd to / and untar it fom there and stuff MAY go in the right spots.
[06:51] <Lewis> Hello
[06:51] <blanky> about that, if I do that, it wont override the folders with the folders I have right, but instead just put the files in the folder
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> blanky,  correct.
[06:51] <blanky> okay, thanks
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> if it actually deleted the folders and  did it that way.. it'd be like the old BEOS (which was a BIG annoyance)
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:52] <blanky> :) thanks buddy!
