[18:40] <LiquidGhost> yes well I tried it later on, so lets forget I used it
[18:40] <MystaMax> Ramphis, I want you to show me the connection status info
[18:40] <LiquidGhost> And just say I built debs from the driver I got on AMD's site
[18:40] <Jack_Sparrow> k1dugar: Morning to you as well
[18:40] <LiquidGhost> Which is what I did 1st
[18:40] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: Have you reinstalled since you tried it..?
[18:41] <MystaMax> danfg, after you hit u, it'll say something like new packages or updated packages on the main screen
[18:41] <LiquidGhost> reinstalled what?
[18:41] <k1dugar>  Jack_Sparrow: well here is evening now
[18:41] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: your operating system..
[18:41] <LiquidGhost> I am not really keen on just reinstalling my OS because of this
[18:41] <LiquidGhost> Then I might as well run Windows
[18:41] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: We cant just forget it... that is where the problem started
[18:41] <timseves> Which channel is best to as questions about packaging?
[18:41] <danfg> MystaMax: let me try that now brb
[18:41] <LiquidGhost> The problem was here even before Envy touched my system
[18:41] <bersace> r
[18:42] <Ramphis> IP Address: <IP_ADDRESS> ~ Subnet Mask: <IP_ADDRESS> ~ Gateway: <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:42] <bersace> Hi
[18:42] <pike_> timseves: #debian probably ;p
[18:42] <Mr_Eeh> can i dump a process' memory in xubuntu?
[18:42] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: It has to do with proper video driver and monitor setup.
[18:42] <ormandj> what's a good program to make tree diagrams? specifically, I'm trying to map out all the people in our org. from top to bottom
[18:42] <naelr> ok I can install fiesty on my new laptop but if I do an update to the next kernel revision it will not boot.. no will it with gutsy
[18:42] <timseves> pike: I my issue is ubuntu specific
[18:42] <MystaMax> Ramphis, good, you'll need that so write all that down. Above the IP addy does it say assigned by DHCP or static?
[18:42] <LiquidGhost> well, if DRI init is successful according to the XOrg log
[18:43] <LiquidGhost> why does glxinfo report it being not available
[18:43] <hilltop> in AWN why isnt the firefox icon shown?
[18:43] <Dr_willis> LiquidGhost,  i hear a lot of people in here with issues and ati/fglrx/and dri.  Ivee heard its often a bug/conflict with various mb chipsets and the ati drivers. ( ive given up on ati so cant help more)
[18:43] <LiquidGhost> And xv performance is insanely bad, blocky scaling
[18:43] <LiquidGhost> With lots of tearing
[18:43] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: ONce you use envy or automatix I cant help until you reinstall.. It is a waste of my time
[18:43] <Ramphis> MystaMax, dunno :S ... I dont know a lot by nets lol XD
[18:43] <k1dugar>  Jack_Sparrow: do you know about any GUI for managing APM / ACPI fo ubuntu 7.10
[18:43] <jonrysh> I need to install the package containing gnome-font-properties.  How can I find out which package this is?
[18:43] <Ramphis> but ... If I go to that LAN TCP/IP propierties
[18:43] <Jack_Sparrow> k1dugar: I have not seen one
[18:43] <naelr> is there an ubuntu kernel irc channel?
[18:43] <danfg> MystaMax: so i press Enter on "Upgradable Packages", right?
[18:44] <Dr_willis> !find gnome-font-properties
[18:44] <bersace> Hi everyone, how to get a root shell access on herdy provided arrow do not work ?
[18:44] <Ramphis> I have also another Ip's
[18:44] <bersace> at boot time
[18:44] <ubotu> Package/file gnome-font-properties does not exist in gutsy
[18:44] <Agiofws> Dr_willis,   linux-source-2.6.22_2.6.22-14.46_all.deb     is this it ?
[18:44] <Seraph> Does anyone know how to get my laptop's ALI 5602 webcam working in Ubuntu?
[18:44] <MystaMax> danfg, hit the plus sign on the keyboard for the packages you want to upgrade
[18:44] <MystaMax> and then hit g to perform the upgrade
[18:44] <LiquidGhost> Jack_Sparrow, or you could just maybe think of what might cause the problem
[18:44] <Ramphis> I have also an DNS Server Ip's
[18:44] <Dr_willis> Agiofws,  that looks about right.
[18:45] <Agiofws> Dr_willis,  its the sources ..... right ?
[18:45] <jonrysh>  Dr_Willis: !find gnome-font-properties -- Is this supposed to be an entry in a shell window?
[18:45] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: You did not get your video AND monitor setup correctly in the beginning.  Most people forget they need to setup the monitor sync rates and keep messing with video drivers
[18:45] <bersace> ok, let's make use of ssh
[18:45] <riotkittie> bersace: 8.04? #ubuntu+1 will prove more helpful for discussion of that
[18:45] <Dr_willis> Agiofws,  it says linux-source :) so im guessing thats a yet.
[18:45] <Lunks> What would be the drawbacks of getting a kernel from kernel.org and compiling it myself on ubuntu?
[18:45] <danfg> MystaMax: cool, i pressed +, then g and g again, it's updating, thanks :-)
[18:45] <jay> how do I say tar "test" and put it in /somedir
[18:45] <jay> ?
[18:45] <LiquidGhost> what the hell does sync rates have to do with DRI init?
[18:45] <naelr> does anyone know if is there an ubuntu kernel irc channel?
[18:45] <LiquidGhost> Also if I install an old fglrx then DRI works
[18:45] <bersace> ?
[18:45] <Dr_willis> jonrysh,  thats a bot command in the channel. it dident find the pacakge.
[18:46] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: They get lazy and try scripots that dont work many times...  then they want to find the right way to do it.
[18:46] <riotkittie> Lunks: won't have the ubuntu patches.
[18:46] <Dr_willis> jonrysh,  why are you even looking for that?
[18:46] <MystaMax> danfg, sweet glad its workin'
[18:46] <MystaMax> Ramphis, did you send me something?
[18:46] <LiquidGhost> I have backups of all my XOrg configs anyways
[18:46] <LiquidGhost> I don't see the relevance
[18:46] <Ramphis> yes
[18:46] <Ramphis> I have also an DNS Server Ip's
[18:46] <Lunks> riotkittie: where can I see which patches does ubuntu apply?
[18:46] <ibanez> how do i tell if my ati install was successful ?
[18:46] <jay> how do I say tar "test" and put it in /somedir? tar cvf test.tar test -C /destinationDir does not work
[18:46] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: Once you go outside the repos using the scripts it messes up oter things down thew road..
[18:46] <Jack_Sparrow> !automatix
[18:46] <ubotu> automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe »
[18:46] <riotkittie> Lunks: love to answer that but i'm clueless. sorry.
[18:47] <jonrysh> Dr_Willis: Firefox and evolution have their fonts controlled in this way, and (as far as I have found) in no other.
[18:47] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: Read that link about some of what those scripts do.
[18:47] <Lunks> riotkittie: ok, thanks =)
[18:47] <k1dugar>  Jack_Sparrow: I'm laptop-mode-tools but its in shell mode and I have configured it to fix Hard Disk "Load_Cycle_Count" but I wanted to know how I can link it with native "Power Management"
[18:47] <Seraph> Does anyone know how to get my laptop's ALI 5602 webcam working in Ubuntu?
[18:47] <LiquidGhost> again
[18:47] <MystaMax> Ramphis, on the LAN status window, above IP address it says "Address type" assigned by DHCP (on my win box it does) what does yours say
[18:47] <Dr_willis> jonrysh,  even the apt serh web site aint finding anything on gnome-font-properties   You may be looking for somthing else. Or some how looking at the wrong stuff.
[18:47] <LiquidGhost> I had exactly the same problem for days before I even tried Envy
[18:48] <Jack_Sparrow> k1dugar: There were some tools that might help that.  I just dont remember the name at the moment
[18:48] <LiquidGhost> so it's hardly relevant
[18:48] <riotkittie> Lunks: any reason you're thinking about compiling a kernel from .org in particular?
[18:48] <thomas__> how u change rooms ?
[18:48] <LiquidGhost> DRI is reported to init fine, but it didnt
[18:48] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: It is relevant...  no matter what you say...
[18:48] <MystaMax> thomas__, /join #channelNAME
[18:48] <thomas__> thanks mysta
[18:48] <Ramphis> Yes
[18:48] <Lunks> riotkittie: not really =P
[18:48] <Ramphis> it says: Manually Configured
[18:48] <LiquidGhost> It was no relevant till about 3 hours ago
[18:49] <MystaMax> Ramphis, ah ok
[18:49] <riotkittie> hehe
[18:49] <k1dugar> Jack_Sparrow: Ok, please let me know if you find one, Im looking for in but its hard to find.
[18:49] <LiquidGhost> so instead of us going on about how I should not have installed it
[18:49] <LiquidGhost> and then bitch and moan for hours
[18:49] <Jack_Sparrow> k1dugar: I probably have it in my notes but I am not at my pc
[18:49] <LiquidGhost> How about just giving me a pointer as to why this can happen?
[18:49] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: I already did...
[18:49] <Lunks> riotkittie: I just want to learn more about how it works, and hopefully not break anything
[18:50] <k1dugar> Jack_Sparrow: Nice ;) it would be great if later I would get know more about iy
[18:50] <k1dugar> *it
[18:50] <LiquidGhost> as in what might be wrong before I touched Envy
[18:50] <LiquidGhost> I mean can I be more clear on this?
[18:50] <Mr_Eeh> Hi. A question: can i dump a proccess' memory for examination somehow? :D
[18:50] <Ramphis> Mystamax, what should I do?
[18:51] <LjL> Mr_Eeh: hexdump /prox/process_id_number/mem
[18:51] <thomas__> i just installed ubuntu for the first time have never used linux before
[18:51] <LjL> Mr_Eeh: hexdump /proc/process_id_number/mem
[18:51] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: Did you ever setup your monitor info in your xorg?
[18:51] <pike_> Mr_Eeh: if you can read a dump file more power to you
[18:51] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: Post it to the pastebin
[18:51] <brobostigon> mr_eeh, i dont understand what you mean, please give more info??
[18:51] <thomas__> i like it although i am a total noob
[18:51] <LiquidGhost> no, it's the same as with the default install and worked fine with the fglrx in the feisty repo
[18:51] <core64> Ramphis: so in ubuntu how'd you try and configure your static IP?
[18:51] <LiquidGhost> right, hold on
[18:51] <Mr_Eeh> brobogiston what should i tell more
[18:51] <Mr_Eeh> like i did with winhex on winxp
[18:52] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: So you dont listen ...
[18:52] <Whitor> Hi, at one point I checked the option to have Gnome remember my current running state. It  worked well, but took a lot longer to login to my personal session. I have uncheccked this option... but Ubuntu is still loading my 'remembered' session environment... How do I reset this?  It literally takes 5+ minutes to bring up my desktop
[18:52] <Ramphis> core64, im not missed in any drivers, right?
[18:52] <jonrysh> Dr_Willis: The Debian package search http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages finds /usr/bin/gnome-font-properties in the package gnome-control-center, but on my own system (Gutsy) it's not there.  I need a method, like www.debian.org/distrib/packages to search the Gutsy database (or whatever).
[18:52] <brobostigon> i think other people  have given you more help than i could have.
[18:52] <Ramphis> the problem is the IP in my case, right?
[18:52] <thomas__> how u access files on a networked mac pc ?
[18:52] <LiquidGhost> if it worked fine with that fglrx
[18:52] <LiquidGhost> why should it be changed?
[18:52] <core64> Ramphis: most likely, it wasn't defined properly. but im not sure unless I was infront of your machine
[18:53] <Ramphis> come lol
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: Again, if you seem to know so much and it dosent work why not listen to what we tell you
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: we link res and tell people how to set things up.. yet they dont read...
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !res
[18:53] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[18:54] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: We link pages about how bad scripts are, yet they wont read..
[18:54] <core64> Ramphis: so did you try and set a static IP? if so how?
[18:54] <LiquidGhost> again
[18:54] <LiquidGhost> how is DRI related to this?
[18:54] <Jack_Sparrow> !automatix
[18:54] <ubotu> automatix is not recommended, supported or needed.  The various apt commands and serch sites are not finding a 'file' named gnome-font-properties
[18:54] <Ramphis> How?
[18:55] <Ramphis> bY My Ntework settings
[18:55] <Ramphis> and I clicked on the propierties
[18:55] <Dr_willis> jonrysh,   http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin//search_contents.pl?version=gutsy&arch=i386&case=insensitive&word=gnome-font&searchmode=searchfilesanddirs
[18:55] <riotkittie> LiquidGhost: no. you're needlessly defensive, for lack of a better term, perhaps paranoid. i've not seen anybody laugh at anyone, or call them a noob.
[18:55] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: Do we need to say AGAIN, that you used Envy.  something that changes your system in ways that are not easy to fix and cause horrible problems..  So please read that to mean   NOT recommended or supported.
[18:55] <Ramphis> it says If i have static or a DHCP or something like that
[18:55] <LiquidGhost> yes
[18:56] <LiquidGhost> and then I said about 2309 times that I had the exact same problem before that
[18:56] <LiquidGhost> when I built the debs myself
[18:56] <LiquidGhost> so I am just asking in general what other logs I could check
[18:56] <LiquidGhost> where failure might be reported
[18:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter
[18:56] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[18:56] <Dr_willis> I was thinking that with some ati cards/mb/chipsets - thers are some known bugs that prevent dri from getting enabled.
[18:56] <LiquidGhost> Seeing as XOrg is reporting that it loaded fine
[18:57] <kitche> LiquidGhost: then it's loaded fine what's the problem?
[18:57] <core64> I'm looking for some instructions for u
[18:57] <LiquidGhost> glxinfo report Direct Rendering: No and xv is completely broken. Video is blocky and tears
[18:57] <thrope> anyone know if its possible to get r/w access to ext2/3 partition from win xp 64? ext2 ifs doesn't seem to support it...
[18:57] <h1st0_> thrope: sure
[18:58] <h1st0_> thrope: there are plugin extenions you can dl search google for ext3 windows
[18:58] <jbjbjb> yes, but his question stated they don't work in 64-bit windows though
[18:58] <rambo3> didn't know ms made cp 64-bit
[18:58] <thrope> h1st0_: I couldn't find any for 64 bit windows
[18:58] <rambo3> xp
[18:58] <jbjbjb> I doubt you'll get too lucky
[18:58] <kitche> LiquidGhost: so go to xorg.conf and configure it here is the instructions
[18:58] <kitche> !ati | LiquidGhost
[18:58] <ubotu> LiquidGhost: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[18:58] <jbjbjb> seeing as drivers are pretty much the only thing in xp-x64 that give troubles, and EXT2-IFS is a driver
[18:58] <h1st0_> thrope: ahh 64bit windows no idea there.
[18:59] <thrope> there is explore2fs which is a program but you can only read
[18:59] <Dr_willis> kitche,  i think hes getting at  that 'x says dri is loading, but its actually failing to load propely'
[18:59] <thrope> i don't need the driver - i just need write access so a program would be fine
[18:59] <Dr_willis> bye all.
[18:59] <LiquidGhost> kitche, already did that, was the 1st installation method I tried.
[19:00] <LiquidGhost> fglrxinfo reports the OpenGL vendor string as "ATi blah blah whatever". Most people get Mesa Indirect if their DRI is not working.
[19:00] <Rodya> can someone tell me the name of the Add/Remove Programs program so that I can start it via the cli?
[19:01] <h1st0_> Okay just installed kde-core but I can't startx?  I get errors.
[19:01] <Jack_Sparrow> apt-get
[19:01] <Jack_Sparrow> LiquidGhost: aptitude
[19:01] <Slart> anyone know of an easy to setup ftp server that uses it's own accounts.. nothing fancy needed
[19:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Rodya: sorry those were for you
[19:02] <Rodya> Jack_Sparrow,  i know those, i want the GUI Add/Remove Programs program specifically
[19:02] <Jack_Sparrow> synaptic
[19:02] <h1st0_> Looks like kde-core didn't install X
[19:02] <core64> Ramphis: I couldn't find details on how to do it w/ the gnome, but you should have all the info you need to get it going. In ubuntu, System -> Administration -> network. Then uncheck roaming, and input the info you got from WinXP
[19:02] <EdwardXP> how do i access the GRUB editor on ubuntu 7.10?
[19:02] <nownott> how do i make a external mounted usb drive shared on the network
[19:03] <erUSUL> EdwardXP: grub editor? you mean grub conf file? /boot/grub/menu.lst
[19:03] <core64> Ramphis: I need to go 2 lunch, I'll be back in about an hour or so... if you are still around I'll check back w/ ya
[19:03] <Rodya> Jack_Sparrow, that doesn't start the one im talking about either, I want the one found in Applications -> Add/Remove...
[19:03] <Borked|Raider> anyone know if svn got a command that dl and overwrite local changes made?
[19:03] <herbaliser> nownot: nfs samba
[19:03] <MasterShrek> h1st0, install kubuntu-desktop
[19:03] <Rodya> I'd start it via the menu, but im in fluxbox and can't
[19:03] <EdwardXP> thanks erUSUL i'm new at this, im learning :)
[19:03] <nimbo> is there a tutorial for creating a .deb package out of source code?
[19:03] <nownott> will this work on ubuntu server?
[19:03] <ouellettesr> hello, anyone know of a away to bulk rename a set of files, or a program that does that?
[19:03] <MystaMax> !samba | nownott
[19:03] <ubotu> nownott: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[19:03] <MystaMax> nownott, yes it will
[19:03] <getPancakes> i have a problem where i'm able to start pulseaudio as root, but if i try to do it properly with the script /etc/init.d/pulseaudio start, i get pulseaudio[13104]: main.c: Root priviliges required.
[19:03] <nimbo> !deb
[19:03] <ubotu> deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility.
[19:04] <nownott> its not ntfs its a hfs parititon, does that matter?
[19:04] <nimbo> !package
[19:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about package - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:04] <RazzoRz> hey folks
[19:04] <MystaMax> nownott, isn't HFS for Apple computers?
[19:04] <RazzoRz> how does one find if there Video drivers are the Proper ones install ?
[19:05] <MystaMax> RazzoRz, what type of card do u have?
[19:05] <nownott> yep
[19:05] <MystaMax> nownott, then no it won't work
[19:05] <nownott> i cant mount it and read it just not write
[19:05] <h1st0_> Whats the minimal X meta package?
[19:05] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: are you using the restricted drivers?
[19:05] <RazzoRz> MystaMax: ati X1400
[19:05] <MystaMax> RazzoRz, sorry i've got nVidia
[19:05] <RazzoRz> yeah i know Most do
[19:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Rodya: I dont know but you can probably figure it out using gconf-editor
[19:05] <nimbo> is there a tutorial for creating a .deb package out of source code?
[19:05] <RazzoRz> and i am running 6.10 still
[19:05] <kambei> Can anybody recommend decent, touchscreen-friendly Point-of-Sale software for Ubuntu?
[19:06] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: are you using the restricted drivers?
[19:06] <pike_> h1st0_: normally i do sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg and i think the base x fonts are included if not grab those too
[19:06] <hilltop> hod do i get windows in ubuntu to look like vista?
[19:06] <nimbo> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51003
[19:06] <Mr_Eeh> i cant apt-get lazarus bacause apt-get does not have a dependency in that version
[19:06] <RazzoRz> No i used the beryl set up to get my ati drivers.. prolly generic drivers
[19:06] <Rodya> Jack_Sparrow, I found it in the Gnome Menu editor... /usr/bin/gnome-app-install
[19:06] <Jack_Sparrow> great
[19:06] <herbaliser> nownott don't know about hfs partition
[19:07] <herbaliser> never tried it
[19:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Rodya: Sorry I didnt know it off the top of my head
[19:07] <ouellettesr> kambei: I have searched extensively on pos software and found nothing worth putting into production use
[19:07] <kane77> hi.. my printer doesn't work.. it starts printing and then it just stops and leaves the paper inside...
[19:07] <kambei> ouellettesr: Have you tried Tina?  That is one that was recommended to me.
[19:07] <NIMBY> when I installed vista64 I started to get very slow network transfers, so I installed ubuntu 64 and it doesnt seem any faster, would I be better off with the 32bit version? and would it also be better for getting games to run in wine etc, I've also read that vmware doesnt work in 64bit linux
[19:07] <RazzoRz> but i want to install a game but comes up with a video driver error.. so how does one set up ati drivers on here that will let me do that
[19:07] <kambei> ouellettesr: It's Java-based, unfortunately.
[19:07] <MystaMax> NIMBY, did you disable IPv6
[19:08] <MystaMax> it could help
[19:08] <kambei> ouellettesr: I was hoping for something a little less, well, Java.
[19:08] <Rautamiekka> I got Option GlobeSurfer Icon which I really need to get to work with my Gutsy 32, someone please help me privatly
[19:08] <MystaMax> NIMBY, vmware does work on 64bit, I'm running it on servers and desktops...
[19:08] <ouellettesr> kambei: I have heard banapos is good, but I think the project was abandonned, they advertise a veriosn 2.0, but you can't download it without user name and pasword. And how to get those I have no idea
[19:08] <NIMBY> I havnt disabled IPv6,does it make a big difference ?
[19:09] <kambei> ouellettesr: Okay.  I will look into that one.  You are right, the options seem to be fairly limited.
[19:09] <Rautamiekka> IPv6 slows down only
[19:09] <RazzoRz> i assume most don't use ati here and nor know how to install the Proper drivers
[19:09] <ouellettesr> kambei, I have heard of tina, but for some reason I never installed it. I think I will look into it again
[19:09] <valchers> .lv
[19:10] <kambei> ouellettesr: http://techiqmag.com/2007/11/13/point-of-sale-systems-going-open-source/
[19:10] <Jack_Sparrow> RazzoRz: what game..?
[19:10] <MystaMax> NIMBY, it won't hurt to try
[19:10] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: If I were you I would uninstall the drivers you installed and let the restricted drivers manager handle your video card drivers
[19:11] <NIMBY> mystaMax How do I disable IPv6 ?
[19:11] <Jack_Sparrow> RazzoRz: SOme I found needed a command line to set the res for the game on my widescreen..  sauerbratten was one
[19:11] <RazzoRz> ok but i am not reall in the mood to lose beryl..
[19:11] <RazzoRz> really*
[19:11] <brobostigon> !ipv6
[19:11] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: Syytem>Administration>Restricted Drivers Manager
[19:11] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[19:11] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: have you heard fo compiz-fusion, much better than beryl IMHO
[19:11] <ActySofts> how do I install ALSA on gutsy?
[19:12] <Jack_Sparrow> RazzoRz: It installed fine and I could even hear it...
[19:12] <RazzoRz> i am still on 6.10 not 7.04
[19:12] <ouellettesr> ActySofts: I believe its already installed
[19:12] <NIMBY> MystaMax thank you I will try that now
[19:12] <ActySofts> I've tried OSS but the sound was very bad, I ripped it and now I'm left without any sound system
[19:12] <MystaMax> NIMBY, no prob, don't thank me thank brobostigon. he types quicker than me :)
[19:12] <ActySofts> I tried reinstalling alsa-base but it didn't work
[19:12] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: is there a reason you keeping yourself in the stoneage?? :)
[19:12] <ouellettesr> were at 7.10 now
[19:13] <kihon> Any recommendations for a headless, web-based torrent client?  I've been using TorrentFlux for months and just started playing with TorrentVole.  Any others?
[19:13] <Jack_Sparrow> I still have one pc on 6.06
[19:13] <h1st0_> pike_: thanks i'll give it a try
[19:13] <kambei> ouellettesr: Okay, thanks for the help.  Bye.
[19:13] <RazzoRz> last time i loaded 7.04 i had driver issues with the laptop. so i went back to what i know that works
[19:13] <MystaMax> RazzoRz, what about gutsy 7.10? did you try that/
[19:14] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: 7.10 may have taken care of that problem
[19:14] <MystaMax> gutsy rocks
[19:14] <ouellettesr> yep
[19:14] <Darkstriker> hi
[19:14] <RazzoRz> its the video card issue.. i really hope so ....
[19:14] <Darkstriker> I have a really annoying issue with gusty
[19:14] <alyxander> hey guys i have a strange error i need help with
[19:14] <alyxander> W: GPG error: http://packages.elbuntu.org gutsy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 223020C2A7C6F0DF
[19:14] <RazzoRz> now i assume i will lose everything , such as my virtual box and what have you.. too much stuff on here to start fresh
[19:14] <alyxander> any ideas
[19:14] <Wisteso> anyone know how to disable the top and bottom bars in gnome from showing on top of a full screen app in wine?
[19:15] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: If I were you I would attempt to dual boot your existing install and install 7.10 , then iff you don't have any problems, delete your older installation
[19:15] <crdlb> Wisteso: using compiz?
[19:15] <pike_> Wisteso: run winecfg its in the display settings somewhere
[19:15] <MystaMax> ouellettesr, ah good idea, never thought of that
[19:15] <RazzoRz> yeah i could try that. i guess
[19:15] <pike_> i dont know about compiz though
[19:15] <Darkstriker> When I start the Live CD, my desktop is shifted to the right.... any clues?
[19:16] <nownott> still confused on samba the file  i want to share is ~/mybook/music
[19:16] <RazzoRz> how hard is it to delete the old Os?
[19:16] <RazzoRz> well uninstall that is
[19:16] <Wisteso> pike_ yeah i looked there but didn't see anything that looked helpful. unless it's a window2000 behavior
[19:16] <MystaMax> delete the partiton?
[19:16] <hardware-Rks> Question regarding bluetooth and high quality audo.. .I'm using 7.10 with a compaq 8510p laptop.   The headset connects, I switch the mixer to the bluetooth.   I play media and nothing comes out my headphones ..  Any suggestions
[19:16] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: if you did that then you could migrate everything as well, like your virtualbox installs
[19:16]  * genii sips
[19:16] <Wisteso> crdlb: i'll look into that
[19:16] <RazzoRz> really..
[19:16] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: you will just need to format that partiion that it lies on
[19:16] <Jack_Sparrow> RazzoRz: dual boot both ubuntu's too
[19:16] <hume> anyone knows of how a nokia N 6500 slide mobile phone might work with ubuntu gutsy?
[19:17] <RazzoRz> good to know!>. ok ouellettesr: do i get your email addy when things go arise lol
[19:17] <crdlb> Wisteso: wine's fullscreen behavior is broken, and compiz's fullscreen workaround doesn't work as well as metacity's
[19:17] <ouellettesr> RazzoRz: with gparted
[19:17] <RazzoRz> yeah
[19:17] <MystaMax> RazzoRz, if things break, boot the liveCD and come on back :)
[19:17] <RazzoRz> yeah.. ok guess i am on my way.. .7.10 you say huh
[19:18] <MystaMax> RazzoRz, best OS ever :)
[19:18] <brobostigon> which??
[19:18] <Jack_Sparrow> RazzoRz: If you have room on your drive you can do a full backup and easilly reinstall it from livecd..
[19:18] <ActySofts> anyone able to help with installing alsa?
[19:18] <RazzoRz> i got 64 gigs left i think
[19:18] <Darkstriker> ´hi, has anybody got some time to help me?
[19:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !sound
[19:18] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[19:18] <MystaMax> RazzoRz, I use partimage to backup my ubuntu partitions. It works great and its fast.
[19:19] <ouellettesr> Razzorz do you have other partitions already or is 6.10 taking up the whole disk?
[19:19] <RazzoRz> yes
[19:19] <Herbo> hello
[19:19] <RazzoRz> the whole thing
[19:19] <Jack_Sparrow> RazzoRz: I use the dd command .. see the link that follows

[19:19] <Herbo> how do I install beryl in Ubuntu Gutsy using apt-get
[19:19] <decko> Hi people. I've a problem here. My gutsy don't want open any web pages, but I can connect with other apps, like pidgin with gtalk service...
[19:19] <Darkstriker> dont use beryl
[19:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Herbo: no need..
[19:20] <Darkstriker> Herbo use compiz fusion
[19:20] <madera> Are there good enterprise solutions for backup?
[19:20] <Herbo> Jack_Sparrow, why ?
[19:20] <Jack_Sparrow> compiz fusion
[19:20] <ouellettesr> ok, so when your installing 7.10 you will need to resize your partiion and install it on that
[19:20] <alyxander> captin jack sparrow!
[19:20] <Herbo> I used to use beryl instead :S
[19:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Herbo: and it had changed ..
[19:20] <Darkstriker> compiz is better
[19:20] <preaction> madera, rsync and an offsite RAID5 usually work just fine. the "enterprise" part is probably going to be the hardware
[19:21] <ibanez> compiz is beryl

[19:22] <ActySofts> haha, lol, human stupidy is what everyone suffers from...I forgot the speakers off =(
[19:22] <madera> My problem is that I have a process that is peaking every 30 seconds or so... it's very annoying... and I can't seem to find it...
[19:22] <madera> In windows I use sysinternals and I can see a log of peaks along with the process name.
[19:22] <bullgard4> What does 'rc' stand for in http://www.bootchart.org/images/bootchart.debian.mcrae.0.png?
[19:22] <madera> In linux, how do I do that?
[19:22] <Jack_Sparrow> crdlb: thanks.. that is the one I wanted
[19:22] <madera> KSystemGuard is no help
[19:22] <madera> it only shows peaks, but no responsible process names
[19:23] <Darkstriker> is there some1 who can help me around???
[19:23] <hardware-Rks> Thanks for the bluetooth pointers... one more question,  I'm installing ubuntu 7.10 on an compaq 4800 series laptop.  It has a 100GB harddrive with windows XP already installed.  When the guided partition manager comes up it wants to erase everything on the drive.  It does not see the NTFS partition it see's everything as free space.  When I reboot and remove the CD XP comes up fine... any hints.
[19:23] <ActySofts> anyway, how do I turn the pc speaker off?
[19:23] <Borked|Raider> Anyone that can assist me troubleshooting a ms problem in wow. What command can i use to find the distination of what wow sendt/get information from.  netstat maybe?
[19:24] <don_pucci> hey all
[19:24] <Jack_Sparrow> hardware-Rks: what does gparted livecd show.. If you happen to have it
[19:24] <hardware-Rks> one partition of all free space.
[19:24] <NIMBY> disabling IPv6 made a very small difference to network speed, I used to be able to transfer a 350Mb file in around 10-15seconds, I never had this problem on 32bit xp
[19:25] <don_pucci> anyone know of a linux alternative to anydvd which is a dvd copy protection remover
[19:25] <Jack_Sparrow> hardware-Rks: I am talking the stand alone gparted.. not ubuntu live with gparted?
[19:25] <hardware-Rks> dvd9
[19:25] <NIMBY> its taking 45seconds plus with IPv6 disabled, it was nearly 3 mins
[19:25] <Jack_Sparrow> don_pucci: k9copy
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> dvd95 too
[19:26] <hardware-Rks> So press alt-f2 and run the command gparted.. is that what your refering too?
[19:26] <don_pucci> no...k9copy does not remove protection
[19:26] <madera> I guess in Linux nobody can tell when a process is peaking
[19:26] <don_pucci> just shrinks dvd
[19:26] <hardware-Rks> wine and dvdshink work well
[19:26] <ActySofts> how do I disable the pc speaker? it's getting annoying
[19:26] <don_pucci> those just shrink
[19:26] <don_pucci> they do not remove protection
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> don_pucci: I dont know of any that remove it... just bypass it to make a copy
[19:26] <madera> ActySofts: cut one of the two wires
[19:27] <don_pucci> jack...same thing
[19:27] <hardware-Rks> double click on your mixer and un-check pc speaker.. or open your case and unplug it..
[19:27] <timmbob> Hi, is there an easy way to get a RAID 0 after the install of gutsy?
[19:27] <timmbob> Software RAID
[19:27] <markybob> ActySofts sudo rmmod pcspkr
[19:27] <ActySofts> maedra: I might need it sometimes, you know, but I don't want ubuntu to use it at all...surely there must be a way
[19:27] <hardware-Rks> sorry check mute on PC -SPEAKER
[19:27] <LjL> !info sysprof | madera
[19:27] <Jack_Sparrow> timmbob: not worth the errort, or possible loss of data later.

[19:28] <Darkstriker> hello?
[19:28] <Darkstriker> anybody read me?
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> timmbob: drive speed used to be a real bottleneck, no so these days

[19:28] <ActySofts> hmm?
[19:28] <cyris> hey everyone. i'm trying to remove openoffice.org-writer from my system (apt-get remove openoffice.org-writer) but i get this error :S "You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:The following packages have unmet dependencies:" and it lists a few packages. when i go apt-get -f install I get this error message "Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal." Any ideas
[19:28] <cyris> ?
[19:28] <Darkstriker> k good
[19:28] <timmbob> Hmm ok. So what would you suggest?
[19:28] <Ruud> Jack_Sparrow: I took your advice and installed ubunto on two seperate drives instaid of on one raid. Now I need a little piece of advice again :(
[19:28] <Darkstriker> now i need some1 to help me...
[19:29] <Darkstriker> when i start ubuntu my desktop is shifted to the right...
[19:29] <Darkstriker> somehow
[19:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Ruud: ok, if I know the answer
[19:29] <LjL> Darkstriker, tweak your monitor's knobs.
[19:29] <timmbob> Jack_Sparrow: What would be more comfortable to mirror my data?
[19:29] <Darkstriker> no my desktop is shifted but my mouse ISNT
[19:30] <hardware-Rks> Mr Sparrow,  Are you talking about using the ubuntu livecd and pressing alt-f2 then running gparted or booting from a rescue disk like fedora and running the non x partition editor?
[19:30] <Darkstriker> and I can see what is supposed to be on the right is displaying on the left
[19:30] <ompaul> cyris, so do sudo apt-get install openoffice.org ; sudo apt-get remove --purge openoffice.org* ; rm -rf /home/`whoami`/.openoffice*
[19:30] <Ruud> Jack_Sparrow: I have my /sdb1 mounted to /home . It is the only partition on /sdb, and I want to partition the drive into two partitions, but no tool will let me.....
[19:30] <Jack_Sparrow> !gparted
[19:30] <ubotu> GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[19:30] <Jack_Sparrow> the LIVE cd
[19:30] <Ruud> So I have to start the live cd then do it and return??
[19:31] <don_pucci> maybe this is a better question...what do you guys use to backup your retail dvds
[19:31] <Jack_Sparrow> timmbob: It would depend on your needs,  need full mirror or daily mirror..
[19:31] <ShanghaiScott> NetworkManager in 7.10 seems to be broken. After some random interval I love my wireless networking (shows  in the menu but no longer connected). Plugging in a wired network isn't detected. NetworkManager starts using 100% of one of my 2 cores.
[19:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Ruud: One sec

[19:31] <ShanghaiScott> lose my wireless networking
[19:32] <ShanghaiScott> using atheros/madwifi drivers
[19:32] <hardware-Rks> right so I used gparted it shows no partitions, all free space... when there is an NTFS partition that works fine if rebooted..   I want to dual boot but cannot partition because it does not see the NTFS partition, any suggestions?
[19:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Ruud: yes, gparted live is my first choice, ubuntu live second due to minor gparted issues
[19:32] <Darkstriker> HELP!!!
[19:32] <timmbob> Jack_Sparrow: I just wanted to do RAID 0 to prevent myself for data-loss and not to struggle with a wracked disk
[19:32] <Jack_Sparrow> hardware-Rks: which gparted live version did you use
[19:32] <ibanez> hey Jack_Sparrow what is the command to see if 3d rendering is enabled ?
[19:33] <Ruud> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks a lot!
[19:33] <timmbob> Jack_Sparrow: So with RAID0 I hoped to just change one of the disks if broken and use the other one so long
[19:33] <ibanez> i thought it was something | grep direct
[19:33] <Jack_Sparrow> timmbob: Personally I use dd command and save the result to spare partition
[19:33] <Darkstriker> WTF?!
[19:34] <don_pucci> how about you just ask instead of using caps
[19:34] <Jack_Sparrow> timmbob: I understand the logic of raid...  you can use dd...  you can have sep /home partition...

I tried to set them up manually with ESSID, IP, subnet mask etc but to no use. When used manual config, syslog says there is "no STA entry for own IP" and "no proberesp fromm current AP". Anyone help, please?
[19:38] <ompaul> don_pucci, even you can - please type the full word english is not everyone's first language -- that is a wrapper issue - you can do it any way you like if you provide the right libs

[19:50] <wressle> Hello, you guys are my last chance. I just installed gutsy on my new computer but I just can't get it to boot using GRUB. The device is /dev/sdc and it is properly formatted by the installeer. I first noticed that it attempted to write the GRUB to (hd0) but I changed it to (hd2) to reflect my device. Anyhow, when I boot it simple says incorrect file partition or something like that. fdisk -ul does not output anything a
[19:50] <wressle> So, right now I have a high-end system which can no even boot :)
[19:50] <Paulc> soundray: sorry, I mispoke, I succeded in removing it and installing wcd using synapsis, but nothing changed
[19:50] <wressle> I have 3 sata drives if that makes any difference.

[19:52] <ompaul> cyris, do this and tell me what happens: apt-get -f install

[19:58] <dyerotic> doesnt help me
[19:58] <soundray> bullgard4: consider asking in #ubuntu-devel
[19:58] <Jack_Sparrow> dyerotic: that is how you fix the problem

[19:58] <ompaul> dyerotic, ^^ read that it fixes your problem - if you follow it step by step
[19:58] <bullgard4> soundray: I will consider that. Thank you.

[19:59] <ompaul> cyris, sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-writer#
[20:00] <Jack_Sparrow> decko: can you type in an ip into the browser and get a site
[20:00] <ompaul> cyris, sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-writer << no hash ;-)
[20:00] <Jack_Sparrow> decko: it might be dns
[20:00] <decko> Jaac, Not all IPs
[20:00] <ompaul> cyris, try this sudo apt-get update before that
[20:00] <decko> Jaac, Sorry

[20:01] <Jack_Sparrow> pike_: exactly what I was going fo..  please continue
[20:01] <cyris> ompaul: apt-get is having me go through a loop here hah :S
[20:01] <decko> pike_, Not only in firefox, but with epiphany too
[20:01] <decko> pike_, But I can conect to gtalk service using pidgin
[20:01] <meeper> what permissions do you need on a directory in order to mkdir on it? write is insufficient, do you also need execute?
[20:02] <ompaul> cyris, do this  apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade and if that fails get yourself a CD back up your data and to for a new install - it will cost you less time
[20:02] <cyris> meeper: execute would be to enter the directory
[20:02] <free1> I hope I could ask a question with regard to a scanner...
[20:02] <Jack_Sparrow> decko: If you type  <IP_ADDRESS> 2    what do you get
[20:03] <free1> I went to the sane-project.org site and it appears that the scanner I have is supported on linux
[20:03] <meeper> cyris: really? you need execute to enter a directory and I suppose to also mkdir in it. alright hmm. thanks.
[20:03] <decko> Jack_Sparrow, I know, I got the google page
[20:03] <Jack_Sparrow> free1: but is it supported in Ubuntu
[20:03] <cyris> ompaul: i don't get it tho, is apt-get fucked or something?
[20:03] <cyris> meeper np
[20:03] <ghostknife> I just did an upgrade of Firefox through the update manager, and now there is an error in one of the XUL xml files. Keeps giving an XML parsing error.
[20:03] <ghostknife> Wtf now? How can I downgrade?
[20:03] <Jack_Sparrow> pike_: Looks like it is dns
[20:04] <free1> Jack:  I went to wiki.ubuntu.com and it wasn't listed as supported or unsupported
[20:04] <decko> Jack_Sparrow, But I try to open <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:04] <soundray> ghostknife: do not use this abbreviation here. You need to restart firefox to fix this.
[20:04] <Jack_Sparrow> free1: fire up xsane and see if it can drive it
[20:04] <decko> Jack_Sparrow, And it dosen't
[20:04] <Jack_Sparrow> decko: and if you try google.com   you get?
[20:04] <decko> Jack_Sparrow, no
[20:05] <ompaul> cyris, please mind the language, it has broken during the upgrade, answer this, did you use any tools to enhance your ubuntu for codecs or the like?
[20:05] <free1> Jack_Sparrow:  I get 'no devices available'
[20:05] <soundray> free1: does the sane site mention a firmware requirement?
[20:05] <Jack_Sparrow> decko: so one problem at a time.. and I am a bit busy, someone like pike can better ehlp you.
[20:05] <ghostknife> soundray: sorry about that. didn't even notice
[20:05] <cyris> ompaul: not that i recall, but what would that have to do with openoffice ?
[20:05] <decko> pike_, Don't go away man!!! ;)
[20:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !dns
[20:06] <ubotu> DNS is an acronym for Domain Name System, and is an internet system used to translate names into IP Address.
[20:06] <free1> soundray:  not that I can see
[20:06] <ghostknife> soundray: thats a simple fix. now i feel stupid :/ i didn't even realise I didn't restart in the meantime
[20:06] <soundray> ghostknife: firefox can be resistent to quitting. Repeat 'killall firefox-bin' in a terminal until you get an error if ff still gives you the XUL errors
[20:06] <ompaul> cyris, you never know what libs get borked - or when and that can kill stuff
[20:06] <[BoA]Naufragus[i> hey, for some reason i can't get sound in ubuntu. i'm using a Soundblaster Audigy ZS and i checked the creative website and it says there aren't any drivers
[20:06] <soundray> free1: what's the name of the backend?
[20:06] <pike_> decko: sorry im at work
[20:07] <erUSUL> !sound
[20:07] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[20:07] <decko> :(
[20:07] <ghostknife> soundray: no. I just assumed it was restarted. When you mentioned it, it occurred that I didn't. Makes sense since the chrome is newer than the chrome running, so restarting fixed it

[20:09] <free1> soundray: yes, usb
[20:09] <Slart> arghh2d2: you could do something like this.. for i in $(ls); do mv $1 $1.ogg; done  .. but try it first.. it's just a quick hack
[20:09] <arghh2d2> I want to append .ogg to the end of every file in a directory, does anyone know how to easily do that with mv or rename?
[20:09] <decko> On the same machine

[20:17] <cberlo> Hi folks.  got an ATI video card that was working perfectly fine (desktop effects, 3d accel, etc.) with the defualt ATI driver when I installed Gutsy a little while ago.  I did an update last week and it looks like it's disabled DRI/DRM somehow.  Anyone else experiencing this?  I don't want to go back tot he fglrx driver because it didn't support the compositing stuff I like.

[20:18] <soundray> johnny06: don't do this here please
[20:19] <johnny06> do what
[20:19] <cberlo> johnny06: I tend to agree.  I wanted to buy ATI because at the time they were Canadian, but I knew nvidia to be the superior product...  :(
[20:19] <joebob777as7> cberlo, compiz-fusion would be a better channel to ask but what is the output it gives you when you try compiz --replace?
[20:19] <johnny06> just cause i said thetruth
[20:19] <atlfalcons866> i reinstalled vista and grub is not there
[20:19] <cberlo> joebob777as7: Dont' have the system in front of me, but it basically says it can't find any screens and exists.  No DRI
[20:19] <soundray> johnny06: this is a support channel, not the "say the truth" channel
[20:20] <cberlo> joebob777as7: It's not a compiz issue, really.  It's an ATI Xorg kinda issue.
[20:20] <johnny06> so
[20:20] <pete83> soundray: that's why I lie when I give support
[20:20] <cberlo> pete83: here, here.  :)
[20:20] <joebob777as7> atlfalcons866, boot a live cd and do sudo grub / root (hd0,0) then you'll have to add an xp section in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:21] <joebob777as7> cberlo, you'll probably have to enable dri in xorg.conf. can't really help without the exact error maybe someone else can
[20:21] <johnny06> http://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/rms-ati-protest.html
[20:21] <cberlo> I can still boot the system with the LiveCD and it enables the desktop effects properly, so I'm pretty sure it's an update that occurred sometime last week.  Freaked me out a bit because I just upgraded my RAM to 1GB...  :)
[20:21] <soundray> pete83: you cannot give support by lying ;)

[20:23] <pete83> soundray: sure, to fix your wireless card just delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[20:23] <soundray> burzum: there is no 6.0.4
[20:23] <kdubois> soundray: don't do that
[20:23] <soundray> pete83: aye, see, you're not supporting anyone if you say that.

[20:26] <soundray> Thanks ompaul
[20:27] <soundray> FireH4zrd: no... how do you mean "link"?
[20:27] <bullgard4> soundray: The topic of #ubuntu-devel is: "No support." Apparently there is no intermediate-level Ubuntu support channel. I will dodge to ##linux and hope for better luck.
[20:27] <jorman> I have a pb with Gutsy and a Vitsuba kb-8102c keyboard: when I touch the "Sleep" hotkey... the computer is TURNED OFF completely. When I touch the "Power" hotkey the behaviour is 'expected': it's the same as selecting System -> Quit, any ideas? Where can I configure these hotkeys mapping?
[20:27] <FireH4zrd> soundray: sorry for being vague, i meant a mailto: link
[20:27] <soundray> bullgard4: your question may be most suitable for a mailing list
[20:28] <gfx_> but then how can we automate that?
[20:28] <ta1> I am unable to use .php scripts in firefox.. every time I try it doesn't recognize it and wants to use BlueFish to edit it.... any ideas?
[20:28] <bullgard4> soundray: Yes. I will file a posting to an Ubuntu mailing list.
[20:28] <jorman> ta1, php scripts are meant to be run from a webserver
[20:28] <jorman> ta1, don't expect 'em to work just by opening them in firefox
[20:28] <soundray> FireH4zrd: no, I think it'll link to what you set under System-Preferences-Preferred Applications
[20:29] <gfx_> hello

[20:29] <cberlo> !sabayon
[20:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sabayon - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:30] <gfx_> is that a package that works with edubuntu?
[20:30] <FireH4zrd> ta1: you need to install php & apache and maybe even mysql to run your php script on your machine, then you will need to reference the files from localhost
[20:30] <cberlo> Wow.  ubotu doesn't know about sabayon?  gfx:  yes.
[20:30] <LjL> !info sabayon
[20:30] <ubotu> sabayon: system administration tool to manage GNOME desktop settings. In component main, is optional. Version 2.20.1-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 151 kB, installed size 2784 kB

[20:31] <LjL> ferronica: i think i have no idea, why are you asking me? i don't even have an UPS or ever had one
[20:31] <gfx_> i would like to create users with similar desktops to the one i have configured for minimum access
[20:31] <ferronica> ok
[20:32] <ompaul> bullgard4, yeah it does make most sense: getty - a program which displays the login: prompt when logging into a Unix system.
[20:32] <xp_prg> what is the command to see how many disks I have?
[20:32] <ikonia> gfx_: make their profiles read only
[20:32] <raxip> don't know
[20:32] <ikonia> xp_prg: uuid will show you the uuid for all your disks
[20:32] <ta1> FireH4zrd: Yeah, I know.. I have PHP and Apache running.. CGI scripts work fine but when I try to access PHP it just wants to open it like it's an unrecognized file
[20:32] <ompaul> bullgard4, system is not in a "ready" state until they fire up
[20:32] <Paulc> soundray: I entered the command lsmod | grep rt2500usb, do you need the output?
[20:32] <soundray> ikonia: blkid ?
[20:32] <ikonia> soundray: thank you
[20:32] <ferronica> On Ups Power, I check off Enable Ups Discharge Alarm then I hit close.. when I reopen that same menu the option is not checked.. what's going on? I have restarted the apc service a couple of times.....

[20:32] <gfx_> what config files are used when a new user is created?
[20:32] <ikonia> soundray: my mistake
[20:33] <cberlo> ferronica: On what OS are you doing this?
[20:33] <ikonia> gfx_: well their home directory is the key, everything is controlled from their
[20:33] <Karasu_> jorman..ok..well my screensaver doen load, after the iddle time fades to black then fades back, i used also de xscreensaver, it didn work either went black cycling
[20:33] <gfx_> in other words, what or where does ubuntu go to determine what to include when a user is created?
[20:33] <erisco> Is there any browser for ubuntu that has a 64-bit java plugin?
[20:33] <ikonia> gfx_: what files are created depends on your config
[20:33] <ferronica> cberlo: ubuntu 7.10 gnome
[20:33] <ompaul> ikonia, may I point you at bulgard4's question you may have some good docs on same
[20:33] <ikonia> gfx_: thats /etc/skel
[20:33] <soundray> Paulc: no, you have answered my question (there was output) :)
[20:33] <ikonia> ompaul: you certainly may, however I missed it
[20:33] <ikonia> bullgard4: can you tell me your question please as I missed it
[20:34] <ompaul> ikonia, what getty depends on
[20:34] <erisco> !browsers
[20:34] <ubotu> Browsers available for Ubuntu: Firefox (GTK, Gecko engine), Konqueror (KDE/Qt, KHTML engine), Epiphany (GTK, Gecko engine), Dillo (GTK), w3m (terminal-based), Links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !man page), Opera (Qt, proprietary)
[20:34] <gfx_> ive heard of people duplicating and renaming directory folders, but the settings migrate as well when changes are made, sounds like a lot of work
[20:34] <cberlo> gfx_: I generally set the template directory to be that of a user (template).  Then I change the template user how I want it.  Basically similar to the Sabayon approach.  Of course, my profiles are deleted every time a user logs out due to authenticating with ADS.
[20:34] <Paulc> soundray: good:) what now?
[20:34] <ikonia> ompaul: in terms of technially depends on as an application, or depends on to work
[20:34] <sku> My wifi card works from the live cd but not when ubuntu is installed!  Can anyone help me fix it?
[20:34] <Condoulo> Who here is a GRUB expert?
[20:34] <FireH4zrd> ta1: did you run "sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5"
[20:34] <ikonia> Condoulo: ask away
[20:34] <soundray> Paulc: I think if it's still not working after you removed network manager, the only hope is in compiling a more recent driver version.
[20:34] <jorman> ta1, and restart apache after doing what FireH4zrd told you
[20:34] <cberlo> ferronica: And are you using a web browser, the APC software...?  How are you accessing settings?
[20:34] <ompaul> ikonia, depends on as a application - i.e. what must have happened before it can function
[20:34] <Bikerbob> no expert but I have been playing with it for a bit Condoulo
[20:35] <ferronica> cberlo: there is default power manager
[20:35] <Condoulo> ikonia- Ok, my situation is, I installed Ubuntu on my main hard drive, but at the same time, I already had XP installed on my secondary drive. When I installed Ubuntu, GRUB did not include XP in the boot up options
[20:35] <knightwise> hey everyone :)
[20:35] <ferronica> cberlo: Power Manager 2.20.0 in ubuntu 7.10
[20:35] <gfx_> wondering if there is a way to create 3 versions of desktops for users and then automate adding users to one of the three available
[20:35] <Paulc> soundray:I guess I have to remove the previous version first?
[20:35] <bullgard4> ikonia:  Why does getty start so late? (In  http://www.bootchart.org/images/bootchart.debian.mcrae.0.png 38 seconds after INIT) I thought it only depends on INIT.
[20:35] <FireH4zrd> ta1: use "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart" to restart
[20:36] <AlvarocK> Can i import a xml file that has a uml diagram with some software ?
[20:36] <Patchak> is there all I need to hava  local test server in ubuntu or there are some stacks I can install ??
[20:36] <LjL> AlvarocK, it would depend on which format it's in i guess.
[20:36] <jorman> AlvarocK, Umbrello may work if its XMI
[20:36] <cberlo> ferronica: Wow.  Didn't know that's built in.  Sorry, only familiar with the APC software and the default "laptop battery" settings.
[20:36] <gfx_> i have to lock down the desktop for grades k thru 6 and then allow internet access for grades 7 thru 12
[20:36] <jorman> its -> it is
[20:36] <Patchak> or I need ton install apache, php mysql all separately and myself?
[20:36] <soundray> Paulc: that's easy, just backup the current one and put the new one in it's place.
[20:36] <AlvarocK> ok, thanks i'll probe it
[20:36] <Flannel> !lamp | Patchak
[20:36] <ubotu> Patchak: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.

[20:37] <knightwise> does anyone have experience in installing ubuntu on a compaq evo n620c ?
[20:37] <ferronica> cberlo: i am using APC UPS
[20:37] <gfx_> k-6 simply have applications and menu bars removed
[20:37] <ikonia> bullgard4: getty should only need the network stack up, nothing else, I think its started last as its an ancillery application rather than a core service
[20:37] <gfx_> as well as the browser
[20:37] <AlvarocK> my partner made a uml diagram on Windows.. and he exported on a xml file...
[20:37] <ferronica> cberlo: on windows i have APC software installed
[20:37] <Patchak> gotta love that drupal site
[20:37] <AlvarocK> now i'll probe... if umbrello can read it
[20:37] <knightwise>  /join #ubuntu.nl
[20:37] <ikonia> Condoulo: it didn't include xp at boot time because either it couldn't probe the xp disk to detect the os or the disk wasn't there
[20:37] <jorman> I'll ask my question one more time :)
[20:37] <jorman> I have a pb with Gutsy and a Vitsuba kb-8102c keyboard: when I touch the "Sleep" hotkey... the computer is TURNED OFF completely. When I touch the "Power" hotkey the behaviour is 'expected': it's the same as selecting System -> Quit, any ideas? Where can I configure these hotkeys mapping?
[20:37] <Bikerbob> you need to edit the menu.lst and include your XP install
[20:38] <burzum> how can i update ubuntu server to a certain php5 version? need it for testing
[20:38] <ferronica> cberlo: on ubuntu problem occurs when main power supply cuts, no beep alarm from UPS:(
[20:38] <Condoulo> Bikerbob- I tried that last night, but no luck what-so-ever
[20:38] <Patchak> Flannel, is there any prepared stacks like for mac os xampp or like in win ??
[20:38] <ikonia> bullgard4: if you look at that chart you'll see core services are started first so that looks like a selection choice rather than technical dependency as that is only the tcp stack
[20:38] <gfx_> thanks to all who have replied to my questions
[20:38] <cberlo> ferronica: Okay, and you've set the alarm stuff in Windows, and don't see anything when you're in Ubuntu?  I don't see any settings in the Gnome Power Manager for UPS...
[20:38] <Karasu_> does anyone knows how to put the screensaver working either the ubuntu one or the xscreensaver? mine just doesnt start up, fades to black and nothing?
[20:38] <ikonia> bullgard4: ompaul does that make sense to you ?
[20:38] <jorman> burzum, if that certain version is different from the one available on the repositories, by compiling yourself I guess...
[20:38] <ompaul> ikonia, ack
[20:38] <Bikerbob> Condoulo: can you find the ntfs partiton with a partition editor in linux?
[20:38] <Flannel> Patchak: You don't need prepared stacks.  Just install everything individually, and it works together.  That page has the instructions on how to do it, not hard.  Like half a dozen instructions, if that.
[20:38] <burzum> jorman, how can i check which ones are aviliable?
[20:39] <cberlo> gfx_: XFCE is fairly easy to customize and has a kiosk mode you may be interested in.
[20:39] <Condoulo> Bikerbob- yeah
[20:39] <cberlo> (xubuntu)
[20:39] <ferronica> cberlo: add applet to pannel
[20:39] <ta1> Ok, restarting apache fixed it... thanks :)
[20:39] <ferronica> cberlo: right click Add to pannel
[20:39] <Bikerbob> ok.. then when you boot Grub.. you can interupt the load and go to the command line and boot the partition manually
[20:39] <erisco> !browsers
[20:39] <ubotu> Browsers available for Ubuntu: Firefox (GTK, Gecko engine), Konqueror (KDE/Qt, KHTML engine), Epiphany (GTK, Gecko engine), Dillo (GTK), w3m (terminal-based), Links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !man page), Opera (Qt, proprietary)
[20:39] <erisco> Is there any browser for ubuntu that has a 64-bit java plugin?
[20:39] <cberlo> ferronica: What's the applet called?
[20:39] <Condoulo> Bikerbob- how would I do that"/
[20:39] <jorman> burzum, apt-cache search bla_bla will search for bla_bla in all configured packages repositories, IIRC, otherwise the Synaptic app's search will do
[20:39] <bullgard4> ikonia: I need longer time to think about your statement. Thank you very much for commenting.
[20:40] <SteevoLS> Anyone using E17?
[20:40] <Bikerbob> what partition is first? linux or XP?
[20:40] <DigitallyBorn> why isn't sendmail in the main dapper repository?
[20:40] <burzum> jorman, this returns just one package, not the versions that are aviliable and i dont have a xserver running
[20:40] <ferronica> cberlo: sorry check under system -preferences - power manager
[20:40] <Condoulo> Bikerbob- The Linux one should be first because its on the main 80GB hard drive
[20:40] <LjL> DigitallyBorn: because some other mailer was chosen i guess
[20:40] <ikonia> bullgard4: here is other food for thought. getty is launched off init, init is the first thing thats launched so what you "may" be seeing in your image is getty is spawned by init but not actually "started" until you login which is why your chart is showing it last
[20:40] <ikonia> bullgard4: it depends how that chart is made I guess
[20:40] <ikonia> bullgard4: just more food for thought
[20:40] <ferronica> cberlo: sorry check under system -preferences - power management
[20:41] <jorman> burzum, then 1 pkg is available only on ur configured repositories.
[20:41] <cberlo> ferronica: I see only the power management options, as usual.  I'm guessing you see more options when you have a UPS connected?
[20:41] <Bikerbob> ok.. then as far as Grub is concerned linux is (hd0,0) and your XP should be (hd1,0)
[20:41] <jorman> I have a pb with Gutsy and a Vitsuba kb-8102c keyboard: when I touch the "Sleep" hotkey... the computer is TURNED OFF completely. When I touch the "Power" hotkey the behaviour is 'expected': it's the same as selecting System -> Quit, any ideas? Where can I configure these hotkeys mapping?
[20:41] <ferronica> cberlo: in power management there are three options
[20:42] <Bikerbob> so when grub loads.. you hit 'C' to got to command line
[20:42] <Condoulo> Bikerbob- yeah, I figured about that much out.
[20:42] <ferronica> cberlo: in power management there are three tabs
[20:42] <cberlo> jorman: You may want to read up on software suspend.  Some BIOSes don't support the default method and just poweroff.
[20:42] <adac2> can someone with an up to date 32 bit gutsy installation send me the ndiswrapper.ko file? I deleted mine and now it seems that it won't be created anymore even with a reinstall of the deb packages.. (:
[20:42] <polpol> Condoulo#  check grub swap
[20:42] <ikonia> Bikerbob its "e" for edit mode isn't it ?
[20:42] <Bikerbob> then at the command line you can type root (hd1,0)
[20:42] <decko> pike_, Strange. MTU is the problem
[20:42] <ferronica> cberlo: on AC power , On ups power , general
[20:42] <dad> hi all, i would like to know how to update a package in synaptic?
[20:42] <jorman> cberlo, and where can I read about it? do you have an URL handy please?
[20:42] <decko> pike_, I don't know why gutsy set it to 1500
[20:42] <Bikerbob> he does not want to edit the linux boot.. he wants to manually boot the xp
[20:42] <Kilroy> cberlo: ndiswrapper can be installed through the repos
[20:42] <ikonia> dad: click the package and if there is an update available it will auto edit
[20:42] <cberlo> ferronica: That's not UPS power on mine -- it's "Battery" (granted I'm on a laptop here...)
[20:42] <ikonia> Bikerbob: fair enough
[20:42] <decko> pike_, I down it to 1492 and works again
[20:43] <decko> pike_, THanks for the help
[20:43] <ferronica> cberlo: oh
[20:43] <ferronica> cberlo: i am using desktop with APC UPS
[20:43] <dad> ty ikonia
[20:43] <Bikerbob> so then you have set the root (WHERE YOU START LOOKING) at hd1,0
[20:43] <Bikerbob> and you then type on the next line
[20:43] <crashoverride> how do i see the other partitions on my hd? i can see all the ubuntu stuff but for some reason i cant see windows stuff anymore
[20:43] <polpol> Condoulo#  i mean map sorry
[20:43] <pike_> decko: heh np
[20:43] <Bikerbob> chainload +1
[20:43] <sku> My wifi card works from the live cd but not when ubuntu is installed!  Can anyone help me fix it?
[20:43] <Bikerbob> and then boot
[20:43] <ferronica> cberlo: i am searching for help last 1 week :(
[20:43] <Kilroy> sku: what model?
[20:44] <Bikerbob> it should boot the xp partition if the MBR still is intact
[20:44] <ferronica> cberlo: but getting no help :(
[20:44] <sku> kilroy: don't know, how do i find out?
[20:44] <jorman> by reading other answers I've found how to disable the Sleep hotkey alltogether :)
[20:44] <ferronica> cberlo: no one here using UPS strange
[20:44] <jorman> which is what I wanted to do in the end :)
[20:44] <cberlo> jorman: http://blog.paulbetts.org/index.php/2007/02/11/fixing-software-suspend-hibernate-with-uswsusp-in-ubuntu-feisty-and-edgy/ may help
[20:44] <Condoulo> wait, can somebody tell me this in dialog, because this is confusing with all the other messages inbetween
[20:44] <cberlo> jorman: seem to recall using it on this laptop a while back.
[20:44] <jorman> cberlo, will read, thx.
[20:44] <cberlo> ferronica: have you installed the APC software for Ubuntu?
[20:44] <Bikerbob> now you could go in your bios and disable the linux drive.. and see if it will boot the XP.. does that work Condoulo?
[20:45] <ferronica> cberlo: you mean apcupsd ?
[20:45] <cberlo> ferronica: Yep.
[20:46] <jorman> cberlo, system -> prefs -> power mgmt's accions on the General tab did the trick this time. I've completely disabled the Sleep key, which is what I wanted. thx.
[20:46] <jorman> thank you ppl, have a nice one!
[20:46] <jorman> bye
[20:46] <cberlo> jorman: Great!  Glad that worked!
[20:46] <adac2> can someone with an up to date 32 bit gutsy installation send me the ndiswrapper.ko file? I deleted mine and now it seems that it won't be created anymore even with a reinstall of the deb packages.. (:
[20:46] <ferronica> cberlo: i did
[20:46] <cberlo> ferronica: maybe try the web interface option?  Perhaps the GUI isn't 100% yet...?
[20:46] <Paulc> soundray: sorry to bother you, and thanks for the patience. I found instruction to install the new driver, but how do I remove the old one?
[20:47] <eddy_> I'm trying to add a command to a link, for example in windows I'd type: "bla.exe" commandhere  (But how do I do that in ubuntu?)
[20:47] <soundray> adac2: you probably need to reinstall the linux-image package to recover that
[20:47] <portablejim> What is an alternative program to Webmin, for easy computer adminstration?
[20:47] <soundray> Paulc: backup the current one and put the new one in it's place.
[20:47] <soundray> s/it's/its/ (I hate it when that happens)
[20:47] <bulmer> eddy_-> thats called command line option..same in linux
[20:48] <eddy_> bulmer, i dont see it, but ill look again
[20:48] <bullgard4> ikonia: I disagree with that "it depends how that chart is made". My laptop computer shows a similar behaviour. I would like to find out why. This situation is independent of the way a start diagram is drawn. --  I do not think that getty is starting only after my login.
[20:48] <bulmer> eddy_-> which command do you want to run?
[20:48] <Paulc> soundray: how do I do that?
[20:48] <ferronica> cberlo: check PM
[20:48] <ferronica> cberlo: got
[20:48] <ferronica> cberlo: here what get after installing apcupsd
[20:49] <eddy_> when i create a link it doesn't let me add a command line option... ?
[20:49] <Patchak> I started tasksel and selected LAMP server, now that stuff seems to want to uninstall all my installed packets??
[20:49] <arc^^> Anybody know a guide on how to modify an ubuntu package source for your own use?
[20:49] <soundray> Paulc: 'sudo cp /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/wireless/rt2x00/rt2500usb.ko ~/rt2500usb-backup.ko' to backup
[20:49] <cberlo> ferronica: From my experience, that looks about right, actually.
[20:49] <eddy_> bulmer, im using wine, it's this: "eqhost.exe" patchme
[20:49] <pete83> Patchak: like what?
[20:50] <spidermanblack> ola
[20:50] <abe_> hi, everone, i can't delete a virus from my flash memory
[20:50] <spidermanblack> alguem?
[20:50] <paolo_> c'è un italiano??^^""
[20:50] <soundray> Paulc: to put the newly compiled one in it's place, 'sudo cp rt2500usb.ko /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/wireless/rt2x00/'

[20:50] <Patchak> pastebin?
[20:50] <ferronica> cberlo: but no ups discharge ups alarm
[20:51] <pete83> Patchak: ok
[20:51] <cberlo> ferronica: I think you should check to see if a bug has been filed for this.  You might find more info.  If no bug, it looks like you've found one.
[20:51] <adac2> soundray: linux-image-generic?
[20:51] <eddy_> bulmer?  you there?
[20:51] <dmb> is there a way to get the uncompress generic linux kernel that ubuntu uses?
[20:51] <bulmer> eddy_-> yeam am here,
[20:51] <soundray> Paulc: if you're running a different kernel, adapt the pathnames. If uname -r says 2.6.24-14-generic' then you're okay
[20:51] <Bikerbob> Condoulo? if your still there you can also  boot into your linux and rewrite your menu.lst.. to include the xp if you know it works
[20:51] <ferronica> cberlo: :(
[20:51] <soundray> adac2: no
[20:51] <dmb> i'm trying to use oprofile
[20:52] <erUSUL> dmb: the source code?
[20:52] <Patchak> pete83, http://drupalbin.com/181
[20:52] <dmb> erUSUL: i mean without building it
[20:52] <Patchak> all those seems to me wtf is going on it seems it'S removing everything
[20:52] <bulmer> dmb-> umm kernel in /boot/grub are compressed noh?
[20:52] <cberlo> ferronica: set in Windows, the alarm works as expected, right?
[20:52] <eddy_> bulmer, when i create a link i dont even have an option to add a command line, what am i doing wrong?
[20:52] <soundray> adac2: that's a metapackage, it won't actually replace anything. Do a 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-$(uname -r)'
[20:52] <erUSUL> !info kernel-source
[20:52] <ubotu> Package kernel-source does not exist in gutsy
[20:52] <soundray> instead

[20:52] <erisco> how do you remove a package with GDebi?
[20:52] <bulmer> eddy_-> how are you creating the link? what command are you using?
[20:53] <Paulc>  soundray: thank you, I will go and try that out now. Thanks again. See you!
[20:53] <ferronica> cberlo: not in ubuntu :(
[20:53] <ferronica> cberlo: big problem :(
[20:53] <eddy_> Bulmer, I right-click on a file then click "Make link"
[20:53] <Patchak> my god..will I have to reinstall ubuntu?? it just says to lauch te debian installer and to select LAMP. why would it delete al;l packs?
[20:53] <cberlo> ferronica: Okay, you've eliminated the hardware aspect of things, then.  I do recall a command line interface for settings with the apcupsd; you may want to see if you can set the alarm/shutdown settings that way?
[20:53] <abe_> i think i have a virus in wine
[20:53] <bulmer> eddy_-> make link to what?
[20:53] <adac2>  soundray: thx i will try that!
[20:53] <pedro> good afternoon
[20:54] <cberlo> abe_: That's easy:  delete your .wine directory and it's gone.  :)

[20:55] <Patchak> does that make any sense... man
[20:55] <dmb> erUSUL: i'm trying to use oprofile
[20:55] <ikonia> pete83 I'm not, but the channels have rules on langauge, so drop the attitude and get with the program
[20:55] <pete83> Patchak: what program did you use to select task anyways?
[20:55] <erUSUL> dmb: do you already have the kernel source?
[20:55] <erUSUL> dmb: where did you get it?
[20:55] <bulmer> eddy_-> what do you want to do with the file? which file is this?
[20:55] <NewUserr> hi guys i ran a program with wine but it didnt work how can i delete these files again?
[20:55] <Patchak> pete83, tasksel
[20:55] <dmb> erUSUL: yes, but i want to debug the default kernel that ubuntu provides
[20:56] <ikonia> dmb debug ?
[20:56] <eddy_> bulmer, its a Wine file - an .exe that needs a command to patch the file
[20:56] <dmb> i mean run oprofile
[20:56] <pete83> Patchak: hmm... I could do it in Synaptic, which might have been better
[20:56] <ikonia> dmb: you want to profile the current running kernel ?
[20:56] <bulmer> eddy_-> you run wine.exe and then an option to it right?
[20:56] <dmb> ikonia: yes
[20:56] <Patchak> pete83, tasksel
[20:56] <ikonia> dmb: what sort of results are you hoping to gain ?
[20:56] <NewUserr> hi guys i ran a program with wine but it didnt work how can i delete these files again?
[20:56] <Patchak> pete83, well ubuntu help pags sent me to that
[20:56] <erUSUL> dmb: ubuntu patches its kernel heavely. i've never used oprofile if you need the sources of you running kernel install the package ubotu said
[20:57] <eddy_> bulmer, no, the new version of wine won't let me. it has no "Wine file" anymore.  (all i can do is click on the exe to run it.)
[20:57] <Patchak> andnow it seems to just be killing the whole system
[20:57] <dmb> well, its for a project, i'm trying to debug something relating
[20:57] <pete83> ikonia: Show me the written rules, or give me a link, or else stop bullying users
[20:57] <ikonia> pete83: the rules and guidlines are in the topic
[20:57] <ikonia> pete83: asking someone to not use offensive language is not bullying
[20:57] <ikonia> pete83: as I said, those are the rules, drop the attitude and get with them
[20:57] <bulmer> eddy_-> look at the properties of that icon and see whats bedhing it, maybe adding the file option
[20:57] <soundray> pete83: stop this discussion please, it's pointless and you're in the wrong.
[20:57] <cberlo> Well folks, gotta run.  Thanks for the suggestion, joebob777as7.  I'll see if a simple reconfigure fixes me up.  Otherwise, I don't mind the reload -- at least it's not Vista (30 min. vs. ???)
[20:57] <pete83> ikonia: there is nothing about it in the topic
[20:57] <ikonia> dmb: I'm trying to assertain what sort of output your looking for  ?
[20:58] <ikonia> pete83: there are links to be read in the topic

[20:58] <ikonia> pete83: or you're welcome to join #ubuntu-ops and ask about the rules
[20:58] <Patchak> pete83, is there nayway to just reinstall everything you think?

[20:58] <pete83> ikonia: and none of them say what you claim. Send me the link
[20:58] <dmb> ikonia: its something someone else is going to be analyzing
[20:58] <dmb> so i don't really know
[20:58] <eddy_> bulmer, ok ill look again for something to modify
[20:58] <ikonia> pete83: you can also read the link from ubotu
[20:58] <bulmer> eddy_-> thats why i dont use gui that much, i select the option i wish to use in the cli
[20:58] <dmb> i just need the compresses version of of the kernel
[20:58] <ikonia> dmb can you get a little bit of info as what your asking doesn't add up
[20:58] <dmb> uncompressed*
[20:59] <ikonia> dmb: thats going to require a rebuild
[20:59] <pete83> Patchak: yes, the package ubuntu-desktop should depend on all those packages that got removed
[20:59] <ikonia> pete83: the link from ubotu will show you the guidelines of the channel
[20:59] <sku> can someone tell me which files ubuntu uses for wifi config?  Wifi is working from the live cd but not the installed version, so i thought maybe i could copy the config files over?

[20:59] <dmb> are you sure theres no way to uncompress vmlinuz?
[20:59] <ikonia> dmb: if you can find out some more info we may be able to offer alternatives
[20:59] <ikonia> dmb: not really no
[20:59] <eddy_> bulmer, you mean run usr/bin/wine ?
[20:59] <dmb> like the boot loader does when we boot
[21:00] <ExalleR> How do you install a Beryl Theme on Ubuntu 7.10?
[21:00] <ikonia> dmb: yes, you can uncompress it totally, just not how you expect it to
[21:00] <bulmer> eddy_-> yes you can run it as /usr/bin/wine -o optionhere args
[21:00] <ikonia> ExalleR: berly is dead so I'm not sure if the themes work
[21:00] <Jack_Sparrow> ExalleR: not nrrdrd
[21:00] <dmb> ikonia: how can i uncompress it totally?
[21:00] <bobgill> what command can I use to list all running processes in terminal, with output sufficient for pastebin to clearly see all processes ?

[21:05] <erisco> erUSUL, it says the package is 0 bits
[21:05] <erisco> erUSUL, something is wrong :(
[21:06] <erUSUL> erisco: did you get the package name? with apt-cache search ?
[21:06] <erisco> erUSUL, yes
[21:06] <kilroy4> CondtyXIV: i'm pretty sure that you dont need to run a ssh server on the client to SCP
[21:06] <ikonia> kilroy4: correct
[21:06] <erUSUL> erisco: then use it eith apt-get remove --purge
[21:07] <erUSUL> with*
[21:07] <kilroy4> CondtyXIV: although i haven't done it through the command line i have been able to use Putty from windows to a *nix box running ssh
[21:07] <erisco> erUSUL, it seems to have uninstalled
[21:07] <erUSUL> erisco: :)

[21:09] <erisco> erUSUL, I get very nervous with this whole package thing. I don't want my system to break
[21:09] <Jack_Sparrow> erisco: have you made a full backup yet.. it is very easy...
[21:09] <erisco> Jack_Sparrow, I am interested...
[21:10] <erUSUL> erisco: then install only from official repos through synaptic or Add/remove programs
[21:10] <Jack_Sparrow> erisco: Just one line in a terminal can take care of everything
[21:10] <ikonia> dmb: you'll need to rebuild

[21:10] <erUSUL> erisco: do not install random deb packages from some website ;)
[21:10] <dmb> hmm
[21:10] <cayres> what version of libmysqlclient should I install?  theres 10, 12, 14, 15, *-dev versions and 15off
[21:10] <erisco> erUSUL, this is a specific howto for getting 32bit firefox running
[21:10] <erisco> erUSUL, it is on ubuntuforums
[21:10] <erisco> erUSUL, I just misread it is all
[21:10] <kane77> erUSUL, although if you want the bleeding edge.. you have to ;)
[21:10] <Jack_Sparrow> erisco: I agree that staying in the official repo will make your life easy
[21:11] <dmb> i wonder why oprofile can't just use the compressed copy of the kernel
[21:11] <kane77> erisco, and safe...
[21:11] <ogzy> does giving default policicy as ACCEPT to tables in iptables means disabling it?
[21:11] <erisco> Jack_Sparrow, unfortunately there is no 64-bit java plugin for firefox
[21:11] <soundray> kane77: if you want the bleeding edge, you don't want Ubuntu. You want Debian Sid.
[21:11] <ikonia> dmb: the overhead of uncompressing it would cause false results I guess
[21:11] <erisco> Jack_Sparrow, I had no option
[21:11] <ikonia> dmb: but that is only a guess
[21:11] <ikonia> dmb: plus profiling is normally done in developments
[21:11] <ogzy> i want something /etc/init.d/iptables stop but there is no script under init.d
[21:11] <erUSUL> erisco: there is the icedtea one not sure how well it runs though
[21:12] <ikonia> ogzy: write one, plenty of examples on google
[21:12] <Jack_Sparrow> erisco: not a tremendous diff 64 to 32, I would stick with 32...
[21:12] <erisco> erUSUL, it doesn't work
[21:12] <dmb> ikonia: this is technically for developments
[21:12] <erisco> Jack_Sparrow, nah
[21:12] <kane77> soundray, but I like ubuntu... I've been with it for almost 3 years.. :)
[21:12] <erUSUL> erisco: :( too bad
[21:12] <dmb> i might just have to recompimle
[21:12] <ikonia> dmb: then they should be able to rebuild the kernel from the ubuntu source package
[21:13] <dmb> ikonia: its something specific to my computer
[21:13] <ikonia> dmb: and ?
[21:13] <dmb> the hardware
[21:13] <ikonia> dmb: and ?
[21:13] <dmb> its something relating to kvm, but won't go into that
[21:13] <ikonia> dmb: not sure how thats relevant
[21:14] <bobgill> what command can I use to list all running processes in terminal, with output sufficient for pastebin to clearly see all processes ?
[21:14] <ikonia> bobgill: ps -ef
[21:14] <bruenig> ps -A
[21:14] <kane77> bobgill, ps -A
[21:14] <bruenig> -A dominates -ef
[21:14] <kane77> bobgill, or ps -aux
[21:15] <bruenig> -A dominates aux too
[21:15] <ExalleR> how do you install the ATI driver on ubuntu 7.10?
[21:15] <Jack_Sparrow> !ati
[21:15] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[21:15] <ikonia> ExalleR: use the restricted driver manager
[21:15] <kilroy4> use nvidia!
[21:15] <sku> bulmer: thanks :)  but /etc/network/interfaces only has "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback", which is the same in both live and installed, so the problem must lie elsewhere.  Have you any idea how I might track down the change?  Might it be something to do with unloaded kernel modules?
[21:15] <bobgill> bruenig: what does it mean to "dominate" the command?
[21:15] <ExalleR> thx
[21:15] <bruenig> bobgill, you know
[21:15] <bobgill> it's the same thing?
[21:15] <kilroy4> sku: did you use those commands that i sent you?
[21:16] <gnuskool> pwn
[21:16] <dmb> ikonia: i'm just going to rebuild it myself
[21:16] <ikonia> dmb: ok
[21:16] <ICQnumber_> how to scroll xterm window with the keyboard?
[21:16] <sku> kilroy4: what commands?  i didn't realize i had received any commands...
[21:16] <bulmer> sku what is this for? and how did you checked that when you were running while on liveCD ?
[21:16] <kane77> ICQnumber_, shift+pageup
[21:16] <kane77> ICQnumber_, I guess..
[21:16] <kilroy4> sku: you can use lspci and lsusb to figure out what hardware you have
[21:17] <kilroy4> sku: once you know that we can help you load the correct modules
[21:17] <Draconicus> Hi there. I've just plugged in a USB mic. I want to adjust the volume with alsamixer or something. What's the device node it would be mapped to?.
[21:17] <Draconicus> -.
[21:17] <sjhiz> anyone available to help with an update manager error?
[21:17] <tardsandwich> howdy
[21:17] <kane77> !any | sjhiz
[21:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about any - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:18] <tardsandwich> I have an NVIDIA 8800GT 512MB Video card and when i installed the NVIDIA latest driver, it went to the proper resolution and everything, then whenever i reboot it goes into UBUNTU SAFE GRAPHICS MODE, its rather annoying, i have been checking forums and google and cant find anyone that can give me a simple fix
[21:18] <Jack_Sparrow> sjhiz: have you changed any sources?
[21:18] <tardsandwich> what do i need to do
[21:18] <sjhiz> no, let me get the exact error verbiage...
[21:18] <sjhiz> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[21:18] <sjhiz> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[21:18] <Jack_Sparrow> tardsandwich: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[21:19] <Draconicus> tardsandwich: Make sure you select the nvidia driver when you do that.
[21:19] <Jack_Sparrow> sjhiz: close the other open package manager
[21:19] <kane77> sjhiz, have you tried the suggestion it gave you?
[21:19] <sjhiz> the other package manager? I have more than one?
[21:19] <justin420> can anybody tell me why your 2 panels wouldnt appear to be loaded and some buttons dont show up when you start your x-session with compiz-fusion on gutsy using a nvidia card, im using nvidia-glx not nvidia-glx-new ( due to dvi problems )?
[21:19] <kilroy4> sku: have you had any luck with those commands?
[21:19] <ICQnumber_> kane77, yes , u r right, ty
[21:19] <sjhiz> I know there's synaptic, but I tdon't see it running
[21:19] <Jack_Sparrow> sjhiz:if you have one open... have you tried that command in a termional like the error asks?
[21:19] <tardsandwich> Draconicus: i have treid that with multiple resolutions and it does the same thing on reboot :-/
[21:19] <sjhiz> I'm pretty new here
[21:20] <tardsandwich> Jack_Sparrow: i will try the dpkg
[21:20] <sjhiz> yes, and it tells me I need superuser privleges?
[21:20] <tardsandwich> Jack_Sparrow: after I do that command do I need to reinstall the nvidia driver or what
[21:20] <Jack_Sparrow> sjhiz: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[21:20] <Draconicus> tardsandwich: What nvidia drivers are you using? Are you installing from the package manager or from the website?
[21:20] <sjhiz> I'll run that code again and get the error prompt for it
[21:21] <atlfalcons866> is it better to have swap file or swap parititon
[21:21] <tardsandwich> Draconicus: i have to use the ones from the website, because my card is 3 months old and the ubuntu repos dont have a new enough driver
[21:21] <justin420> anybody?
[21:21] <sku> kilroy4: just trying to see which is the right line in lsmod
[21:21] <Malfist> apt-get source or apt-get build-dep doesn't work, it tells me it can't find the package, but apt-get install works and so does aptitude
[21:21] <Jack_Sparrow> tardsandwich: that will let you try differnet setups, then startx.. if it wont start try again, or set to vesa for basic gui to work
[21:21] <sku> maybe r8169
[21:21] <sku> kilroy4: maybe r8169
[21:21] <Draconicus> tardsandwich: I see. Had you attempted to use the repo's drivers first? If so you should make sure they're completely uninstalled. I'm sorry, but I have to go.
[21:21] <tardsandwich> Jack_Sparrow: the thing is, i had it working, its only on reboot that it goes back to safe graphics
[21:22] <kilroy4> sku: that sounds like it might be it....you have no clue what card you have?
[21:22] <kane77> atlfalcons866, I'd say swap partition... and I try to keep it on different disk than system, although it rarely gets written on...
[21:22] <tardsandwich> Jack_Sparrow: and the vesa drivers only allow for 800x600, which doesnt work on a 24" monitor
[21:22] <kilroy4> sku: lsmod will print out the modules that are running
[21:22] <Jack_Sparrow> tardsandwich: you need to post your xorg to the pastebin and provide a link so others here can look it over
[21:22] <Malfist> tardsandwich Have you tried Envy?
[21:22] <ubuntu_> hi guys
[21:22] <kilroy4> sku: lets first figure out what card you have and the modules that it needs to run
[21:22] <Malfist> apt-get source or apt-get build-dep doesn't work, it tells me it can't find the package, but apt-get install works and so does aptitude
[21:22] <sku> kilroy4: thing is, it is already setup and already works right now in the live cd, so can't i just copy the settings over?
[21:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Malfist: Wash your mouth out with soap]
[21:23] <justin420> hi ubuntu_
[21:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy
[21:23] <sku> kilroy4: ok
[21:23] <tardsandwich> Malfist: yeah, and the envy manual install works, but then i reboot and same Safe Mode error
[21:23] <ubotu> envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[21:23] <atlfalcons866> kane77: i am in a position that i need it to be a swap file
[21:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Malfist: a horrible thing to suggest
[21:23] <Malfist> Jack_Sparrow: why? Envy was the _only_ thing that worked for me
[21:23] <kilroy4> sku: i suppose you could but i suspect that there is a module not being loaded
[21:23] <Jack_Sparrow> tardsandwich: then that is where your problems start...
[21:23] <Malfist> Jack_Sparrow: X kept kicking the nvidia binary driver and the nvidia driver from nvidia.orgh
[21:23] <tardsandwich> Jack_Sparrow: no, i HATE gui apps like that but it was a last resort, since nothing else has worked
[21:24] <kakoonia> someone can help me out with installing avant-window navigator, i got kiba.. but its too much bullshit in one deal.. and not so stable..
[21:24] <sjhiz> looks like it was an earlier bro9ken package screwed everything up, code worked this try thanks
[21:24] <Malfist> apt-get source or apt-get build-dep doesn't work, it tells me it can't find the package, but apt-get install works and so does aptitude
[21:24] <Jack_Sparrow> tardsandwich: It is a lazy mans way out
[21:24] <Malfist> any one know how to fix that?
[21:24] <mnicholas> why did my wireless connection stop working ?
[21:24] <gaurav_> no

[21:25] <kane77> kakoonia, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2307772

[21:25] <mnicholas> Malfist: I'm looking for help
[21:25] <jazon> i am having a problem.... my mate's youngster did a d-u to gutsy from fiesty, and cocked it all up... however, I have recovered most of it, but cant get the wifi to work.  it works with the liveCD, but not with the install...  it works if i boot to the old kernel as well
[21:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Malfist: have you looked at your sources.list?
[21:25] <tardsandwich> Jack_Sparrow: I am reading so if you find an answer for me I will gladly attempt it, but ive been through many different configs and still keeps going to safe graphics on reboot --- ive been using linux for 13 years and never had an issue with X
[21:25] <jazon> is there a way i can chroot into it or something and make it work?
[21:25] <tardsandwich> xf86 or xorg
[21:25] <Malfist> Jack_Sparrow: No, I assume it's valid, aptitude and apt-get work just fine for installing things
[21:25] <sku> kilroy4: ok, r8169 is a network card, and it a loaded module, so it loks like it
[21:25] <tardsandwich> ive never had a 300$ video card either
[21:25] <tardsandwich> til now
[21:25] <tardsandwich> i usually dont use "bleeding edge" hardware
[21:25] <Malfist> Jack_Sparrow: I enabled everything through synaptic and added the wine repository
[21:26] <Malfist> Jack_Sparrow: nothing looked wrong
[21:26] <Jack_Sparrow> tardsandwich: If you have been with linux that long you should know what going outside of the reops can do and how it is not easy to undo, which is why we dont support or recommend it..

[21:27] <multiverse> Hi, how do I clear up a ban?
[21:27] <kane77> multiverse, a ban on what?
[21:27] <Malfist> Jack_Sparrow: http://www.pastebin.org/9636
[21:27] <sku> kilroy4: yup, eth0, wlan0, wmaster0
[21:27] <multiverse> I was banned, and I'd like to come back and behave (essentially I promise not to promote Automatix2 the apparent reason for my ban.)
[21:28] <ejandi> just installed ubuntu 7.10 but i discovered that my desktop crashes when eva i start up my system
[21:28] <Malfist> Jack_Sparrow: No, I didn't add the wine repos, that must have been before the reformat
[21:28] <sku> kilroy4: but none have anything identifying it

[21:29] <multiverse> I was banned by astro76 and ops because I was promoting the usage of Automatix2
[21:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Malfist: adding insult to injury.. you used automatix....
