[00:00] <chickin> elevator_hazard ah, thanks for trying :) btw I don;t know how you keep up w/ two conversations at once :O
[00:00] <digin4> i wanna pimp my ubuntu :(
[00:00] <phreck> do we have a fix for the flash issue yet
[00:00] <Elevator_Hazard> chickin: I can't :P
[00:00] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: Jack_Sparrow is working on a howto for that device and effects, you can take a look at his working notes at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52710/
[00:00] <adrock358> can you save a large file dl while using live cd?
[00:00] <xenthro> Bax if you pull up a virtual terminal, I recommend you get "htop" an tiny app that shows all running processes and is based on the command line
[00:01] <xenthro> Elevator_Hazard Oh god... can't help... a few years back i had an ati 9600 and it was a nightmare
[00:01] <danonura> where are the multimedia setting located in gutsy?
[00:01] <Elevator_Hazard> xenthro: nickrud found a nice link
[00:01] <tanath> xenthro: bax is gone
[00:01] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: whumps, it says it's for 9500 and before
[00:01] <techgeek40_> And is there a package out there that has the standard windows fonts that can be used in Gutsy?
[00:01] <chickin> elevator_hazard heh ya think? :P I see you talking to xenthro too heh
[00:01] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: thanks I'll see.
[00:01] <Elevator_Hazard> chickin: But I'm barely doing it.
[00:01] <chickin> elevator_hazard and nickrud :P
[00:01] <chickin> lol
[00:01] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: oh.
[00:02] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: thanks anyways.
[00:02] <benny269> im running ubuntu feisty, can someone help me switch off ALL desktop effects and disable beryl by default please?
[00:02] <techgeek40_> Maybe this can be answered, not sure: If I type sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-driver-via
[00:02] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: ah, well I was only a digit off.
[00:02] <techgeek40_> I get the error: E: Unable to find a source package for xserver-xorg-driver-via
[00:02] <tritium> techgeek40_: do you have the source repos enabled?
[00:02] <tanath> benny269: without uninstalling it? System > prefs> desktop effects
[00:02] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: I'm actually ok with 8500 drivers, but I was thinking maybe compiz would work if I had the proper, better, drivers.
[00:02] <techgeek40_> Tritium: To be honest I am not sure
[00:03] <crimsun> techgeek40_: xserver-xorg-video-via as of edgy.
[00:03] <tritium> techgeek40_: look in /etc/apt/sources
[00:03] <Tanuki33> elevator_hazard:  could you tell me how to grep the buffer of an active terminal session? I am having problems figuring that one out. I am not sure what file to look for.
[00:03] <techgeek40> Sorry
[00:03] <techgeek40> Don't know why I got dropped
[00:03] <tritium> techgeek40_: look in /etc/apt/sources.  They begin with "deb-src"
[00:03] <Elevator_Hazard> Tanuki33: I honestly don't really know how to use grep.
[00:04] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: you might try browsing around wiki.compiz-fusion.org , maybe there's some tweaks there. Also, he has some tweaks that may apply
[00:04] <benny269> tanath: yes. when i go to desktop effects it says enable effects, but they are already enabled? and the beryl symbol is in the systray (or whatever linux calls it)
[00:04] <Tanuki33> Bugger Nuts
[00:04] <Tanuki33> thanks anyhow
[00:04] <tucuna> what's the difference between using ubuntu-restricted-extras and medibuntu repo? is there a conflict?
[00:04] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: I also just realized I might have a problem with starting up linux now... Usually when I try to enable restricted drivers it would go to safe grapihcs but last time it didn't
[00:05] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: so I went to recovery mode and ran some xorg command thing to set my on config.
[00:05] <IndyGunFreak> tucuna: not really, but medibuntu has some other programs a lot fo folks like(adobe acrobat, googleearth, opera web browser, etc.).. i prefer using medibuntu
[00:05] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: but it messed up like when I chose 24 bit or something for the screen display so I turned it off there.
[00:05] <tanath> benny269: the icon in the systray should have a right click menu option to disable it
[00:06] <tanath> benny269: and beryl has been discontinued, and merged with compiz
[00:06] <chickin> xenthro: 87% :P
[00:06] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: so my question is how can I boot it up in safe graphics where I can choose which driver to use? (I will just choose 8500 again...)
[00:06] <JamoSmith> I'm trying to enable a second monitor and under 'Screens and Graphics' 'Secondary Screen' radio buttons are grayed out. Is there an advanced way of enabled this ? * I followed a Xinerama tutorial and it screwed up the initial display so I backed up, I'm not an advanced user and don't know what I'm doing
[00:06] <DeadEagle> irc.roachware.net
[00:06] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg , that will get you the default ubuntu config
[00:06] <adrock358> HEY HELP!  can you save a large file dl while using live cd?
[00:06] <chickin> xenthro: 90% :P oh! 91%
 - so you can install the package *and* add the repository without problems?
[00:06] <techgeek40> I'm getting retarded - how do I look into the sources.list ?
[00:06] <chickin> opp! 92%
[00:06] <benny269> tanath: im aware of that but i dont want to upgrade just yet. beryl only offers quit by right click and last time i did this it still loaded on restart. i want everything disabled by defualt.
[00:06] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: oh and I won't have to do any custom configs?
[00:07] <phreck> i need to fix frickin flash
[00:07] <phreck> anyone have any hints?
[00:07] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: nope, no questions at all
[00:07] <Masqy> Hi all, I have a lenovo 3000 N100 on Gutsy, and still having sound problems.  The internal speakers mute when I plug-in earphones, but when I play with the volume, they start working again.
[00:07] <tanath> benny269: ah, you'll have to remove it from your session
[00:07] <IndyGunFreak> tucuna: once you add the medibuntu repository, installing the package is as simple as sudo apt-get install whatever
[00:07] <annonymouse> any one running compiz fusion? jst installed it on but  how do i get the 3d cube thing running? i think ive set in ccsm the effects how do i trigger  it?
[00:07] <tanath> benny269: and check which session you're choosing when you log in. choose gnome
[00:07] <adrock358> nickrud.  i'm on livecd tryin to dl alternate cd, but i can't save it on my hd.
[00:07] <IndyGunFreak> techgeek40: what are you trying to do exactly?
[00:07] <crdlb> annonymouse: please join #compiz-fusion
[00:07] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: wow I wish I knew that before... Thanks...
[00:07] <Masqy> Also, when I play mp3 files with VLC, I get squeaking sounds.. (with mplayer I don't experience such problems)..
[00:07] <techgeek40> To look at the sources.list
[00:07] <nickrud> adrock358: what partition and type do you want to save it on?
[00:07] <benny269> tanath: can you walk me through that please? i dont understand most of what you just said
[00:07] <annonymouse> thanks
[00:07] <techgeek40> See what I have in there
[00:07] <Matir> Anyone know of a tiny embedded linux distro for an x86 system?
[00:08] <IndyGunFreak> techgeek40: its probably all gonna be greek to you, why are you looking at your sources
[00:08] <tanath> benny269: System > Prefs > Sessions
[00:08] <techgeek40> Because - I'm having a hard time getting openchrome working right -
[00:08] <tanath> benny269: remove beryl from startup, and current session
[00:08] <adrock358> nickrud i want to save it on any partition with space.  i want to access it from ubuntu when i'm not on the livecd and it's an iso file, so...that's all I know
[00:08] <IndyGunFreak> techgeek40: and why do you think your repository listing has something to dow ith that?.. all the repos do is install/remove software.
[00:09] <techgeek40> Indy: I'm a computer tech - but for windows xp/vista/2000 server and so forth - this linux is new tome
[00:09] <tanath> benny269: and save. then when you log in next time. there's an option to choose your session. make sure you're not choosing a session called beryl
[00:09] <IndyGunFreak> techgeek40: so basically, you're not a computer tech.
[00:09] <nickrud> adrock358: understood. But to tell you how, I need to know the partition and what type of filesystem
[00:09] <techgeek40> LOL
[00:09] <IndyGunFreak> so again, what are you trying to do.
[00:09] <techgeek40> Inday I am a computer tech - yes - but I've always just used the windows version -
[00:09] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak: you are Cruel
[00:09] <techgeek40> 26 years in the field
[00:09] <adrock358> it's linux, ubuntu.  only filesystem i have.  it's devsda1 i think
[00:09] <techgeek40> But I'm getting tired of windows and want to learn linux
[00:10] <Elevator_Hazard> great I lost a computer... By that I mean I can't find it.
[00:10] <adrock358> nickrud it's linux, ubuntu.  only filesystem i have.  it's devsda1 i think
[00:10] <IndyGunFreak> techgeek40: i worked in a fast food restaurant for 10yrs, i'm certainly not a chef
[00:10] <phreck> anyone know of a flash fix yet?
[00:10] <techgeek40> I'm just trying to get some drivers working - not be insulted
[00:10] <IndyGunFreak> phreck: the instructions on the top of the page are ridiculous, download the source from adobe.com, and you'll have flash working in 5min
[00:10] <IndyGunFreak> actually, probably less than that
[00:11] <pure`eigenVector> sigh... wheres the best place to look for help finding and installing an ULi M5288 RAID AHCI Controller driver?
[00:11] <phreck> top of what pagr
[00:11] <phreck> page

[00:11] <hagen> is there anyway to run outlook 2003 without vmware?
[00:11] <benny269> tanath: removed beryl but effects are still running
[00:11] <IndyGunFreak> hagen: are we talking freeware?.. cuz codeweavers will probably run it.
[00:11] <IndyGunFreak> wine *might*
[00:11] <KiD_ChAoS> hagen i got it running with wine
[00:12] <hagen> kid: I didnt think it worked with wine
[00:12] <gidna> I have problem with the xorg update
[00:12] <tanath> benny269: removed from startup in sessions?
[00:12] <nickrud> adrock358: there was a typo there in the second command:  it's  sudo mount /dev/sda1 -t ext3 /media/sda1  , no space before sda1
[00:12] <andresmujica> how can i list the contents of a repo with apt??
[00:12] <Elevator_Hazard> yay found it.
[00:12] <tanath> benny269: then it shouldn't start up again next session :)
[00:12] <techgeek40> When I do : sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-driver-via  I get the following error: E: Unable to find a source package for xserver-xorg-driver-via
[00:12] <benny269> tanath: great but how do i stop it for right now
[00:12] <nickrud> techgeek40: system->admin->software sources, enable the source repo
[00:12] <crashanddie> hey everyone, for some reason, flash doesn't want to work... I'm running GG, everything updated, I just tried to install flash (going on a flash enabled website and installing the missing plugin), it downloaded and installed all right, but flash isn't detected in firefo
[00:12] <tanath> benny269: through the systray icon
[00:13] <nickrud> techgeek40: and it's xserver-xorg-video-via , not driver
[00:13] <tanath> benny269: if that doesn't work, then log out, and back in

[00:14] <MattUK> Hey all, does anyone know how to get Postfix to use Courier's userdb file for SMTP auth? id appreciate any pointers / urls / tutorials as I'm totally lost at this point, everything is perfect except this!
[00:14] <techgeek40> Why am I getting this error:

[00:15] <nickrud> techgeek40: openchrome, I saw that page about building it. Seems almost a waste, it's so limited. But that's just an opinion, and we all know about opinions

[00:15] <pure`eigenVector> :/
[00:15] <penol> I hva installed windows and ubuntu now, but why do not GRUB find my windows?
[00:15] <IndyGunFreak> penol: just add it.
[00:15] <adub> penol edit our grub
[00:15] <techgeek40> But sadly - unless I can get my drivers working - I can only run gutsy in 800x600 mode
[00:15] <bruenig> adub, do what it says
[00:15] <nickrud> techgeek40: do exactly what it says. the java doc installer needs you to manually download the docs from sun and put it in tmp
[00:15] <Starnestommy> you need to configure /boot/grub/menu.lst
[00:15] <penol> Ok
[00:16] <adub> go to the link
[00:16] <IndyGunFreak> penol: how is your system setup?
[00:16] <adub> its a lot to paste
[00:16] <robeph> is there a way to set like a package checkpoint,  ie say i have the system at a good point,  and I wanna try installing some stuff that may be problemaTIC but what I'd like is to have a checkpoint that I can revert to to remove all the extra packages brought in from the set I have to install
[00:16] <adub> Internal GStreamer error: negotiation problem.  Please file a bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer.
[00:16] <Jouva> Hmmm this is interesting, X-Chat couldn't popup a notification earlier and said that I needed to install libnotify, but it IS installed!
[00:16] <penol> IndyGunFreak,  WIndows on a 320 disk and ubuntu on a 250
[00:16] <adub> naw thats what it says
[00:16] <bruenig> robeph, remember which ones you installed afterwards
[00:16] <adub> i thought it was a lot
[00:16] <penol> so its 2 separete disks
[00:16] <bruenig> robeph, each time you do it, add that package to a text file
[00:16] <IndyGunFreak> penol: so they're on two different physical disks?
[00:16] <MattUK> anyone? I'm looking to get Postfix to use Courier's userdb file for SMTP auth on ubuntu 6.06 LTS, no idea how to do it, would appreciate a point in the right direction
[00:17] <penol> IndyGunFreak, yes
[00:17] <robeph> yeah well thats obvious :p
[00:17] <bruenig> adub, so where is the link to the bug you filed?
[00:17] <robeph> i was more concerned with deps
[00:17] <robeph> I"m not very apt knowledgeable
[00:17] <adub> bruenig i never filed one
[00:17] <IndyGunFreak> penol: what did you do, disconnect your windows drive while installing?
[00:17] <bruenig> robeph, unneeded dependencies will remove when you remove the parent applications

[00:26] <mevetski> haven't done this in a while - gutsy won't install on my new desktop. so a quick newbie question: how big should i make my swap file if i have two gigs of RAM? :)

[00:34] <pure`eigenVector> whats the best channel for hardware (fakeraid specific) linux support?
[00:34] <un_op> chickin, well, ok, find out your motherboard make and model, go to the vendors site, look for BIOS updates -- if you find one, chances are that instructions on upgrading to the newer release are included in the package
[00:35] <IndyGunFreak> penol: paste it again before you reboot, after you've made the changes
[00:35] <penol> ok
[00:35] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: yes

[00:44] <bruenig> Daa_, what does 'iwlist scan' output
[00:44] <IndyGunFreak> penol: well, that doesn't really mean anything, i've saw folks do some pretty silly things while installing

 I'll be right back, let me check that . It,s inbuilt in my Acer laptop, hold oin .. thx ;)

[00:50]  * nickrud thinks IndyGunFreak may have something there
[00:50] <bastid_raZor> Kirji:: the updates of 3 or so days ago made my cups go funny..
[00:50] <xomp> !flash
[00:50] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[00:50] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[00:50] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.

[00:51] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: don't you think those instructions in !flash are a little dumb for installing flash, and more complex than needed?.. just download the source from adobe.com, takes 10sec

[00:51] <IndyGunFreak> penol: SD and HD are pretty different
[00:51] <bastid_raZor> syntaxerror55:: that is bad.. i have a working printer.. i just don't use it
[00:51] <syntaxerror55> IndyGunFreak, no. Downloading the old .debs is easier for new users.
[00:51] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak: I guess they aren't recommending that since it won't work in konqueror
[00:52] <bardyr> Marupa, VNC
[00:52] <Elevator_Hazard> Marupa: some video thing that vidoes your screen..?

[00:53] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: do   fglrxinfo   , make sure it's using ati drivers not mesa
[00:53] <Marupa> bardyr, what ports does that use?
[00:53] <syntaxerror55> Elevator_Hazard, <Elevator_Hazard> Marupa: some video thing that vidoes your screen..?
[00:53] <ijn> install adobe flash on gutsy 64bit
[00:53] <bardyr> Marupa, ip:1
[00:53] <thos9> where do I run a script at login?
[00:53] <syntaxerror55> I thought you were asking for something that did that :|
[00:53] <filthpig> un_op, I've installed firefox without chroot and this howto is also without chroot
[00:53] <ijn> last night did't worked
 Mhh.. I checked under "device manager and the card shows as Atheros 802.11b/g wireless PCI Express Adapter
[00:54] <IndyGunFreak> !flash64 | ijn
[00:54] <ubotu> ijn: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[00:54] <joakim-> #alsa
[00:54] <Elevator_Hazard> syntaxerror55: I wasn't but that would help Marupa
[00:54] <joakim-> oops
[00:54] <Marupa> bardyr,  not understanding.
[00:54] <syntaxerror55> Elevator_Hazard, oh, ok. Sorry for not understanding D:
[00:54] <ijn> so where to get this flash for firefox on 64 bit ubuntu?
[00:54] <xomp> I have the non-free adobe plugin installed according to that. I run Gutsy, I never thought viewing youtube would be such a pain in linux...
[00:55] <xomp> yet another thing holding it back :/
[00:55] <wharp> thos9 System>Preferences>Sessions
[00:55] <bardyr> Marupa, it uses port 5900+x x being the number of the screen but vnc clients just use :x
[00:55] <Elevator_Hazard> syntxerror55: no problem, you probably helped marupa :P
[00:55] <filthpig> !flash64 | ijn
[00:55] <ubotu> ijn: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[00:55] <bardyr> Marupa, i think its 5900, im not sure
[00:55] <filthpig> it's all there
[00:55] <nickrud> penol: add http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52720/ to the very end of menu.lst, after the END AUTOMAGIC line
[00:55] <ijn> ok thanks
[00:55] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: ok here is one line of what it gave me in return..
[00:55] <penol> ok NickPresta
[00:55] <Marupa> bardyr, any way to share this on a web-accessible link like tightvnc does?
[00:55] <penol> nickrud,
[00:55] <penol> ok
[00:56] <nickrud> penol: he's used to it
[00:56] <IndyGunFreak> i think thats gonna work.
[00:56] <penol> hahah nickrud
[00:56] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon 9550 / X1050 Series
[00:56] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[00:56] <bardyr> Marupa, i think it is tightvnc
[00:56] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: Exactly what I used on windows xp, thanks.
[00:56] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: sounds good. Now, if you want effects, install xserver-xgl and log out and back in
[00:56] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: so why didn't it pick up his windows install when he installed ubuntu?
[00:56] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: I can enable compiz in a gui, right
[00:56] <syntaxerror55> xomp, it isn't. I watch it all the time.
[00:56] <IndyGunFreak> i've only had that happen 1x, and that was due to my own stupidity
[00:57] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak: not sure, it just seems to happen sometimes. Happened to me once, with windows on sda1
[00:57] <Elevator_Hazard> IndyGunFreak: I'm dual booting, ubuntu is on my external harddrive.
[00:57] <Marupa> bardyr, I'm not seeing port 5900 open...
[00:57] <IndyGunFreak> Elevator_Hazard: ok...
[00:57] <bardyr> Marupa, try 5901
[00:57] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: you need to have the xserver-xgl in order to run compiz on ati's fglrx driver. And once it's installed, the effects will start automatically iirc
[00:58] <xomp> syntaxerror55, your a-typical linux noob should be able to point his browser to youtube and it work. Now I've come to terms with hours if not days of troubleshooting and dead end google searches to find a way to get it to work lmao
[00:58] <bardyr> Marupa, or if its the vnc host, ip:1
[00:58] <xomp> bad luck I guess :/
[00:58] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: so that's the package name I install?
[00:58] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: yes
[00:58] <DG19075> YouTube has always fired up for me
[00:58] <syntaxerror55> xomp, I was just saying that because it doesn't work for you don't assume it doesn't work for everyone else. |:
[00:59] <syntaxerror55> xomp, although, in this case-it does. The flash plugin is broken. Have you followed the instructions in !flash ?
[00:59] <penol> nickrud, i got a message about strings and stuff
[00:59] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[00:59] <penol> wrong strings
[00:59] <tumbleweed__> it's fairly easy to get working, actually :/
[00:59] <xomp> syntaxerror55, I just installed Gutsy today lol. Went to youtube, was prompted to install the plugin (which I did) restarted firefox and am now sitting at major system crashes and loops of "hey, want to install the plugin? Yes? Ooops, it's installed already" lol
[00:59] <penol> or somthing
[00:59] <nickrud> penol: really helpful message :)
[01:00] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: I think you also tried helping me with a sound problem where sound didn't go through USB Audio and I'd get an error if I tried to test USB audio about resource busy or not available
[01:00] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: But yet when I started it up this last time, it works
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: lol, i'm amazed you didn't properly diagnose it with that amazing description of the problem
[01:00] <penol> nickrud, give me a sec to translate the message
[01:00] <ally_xoxo> im back IndyGunFreak. Sorry for the wait

[01:03] <con-man> has anyone here gotten guitar hero 3 to work in linux?
[01:03] <tumbleweed__> they did it wrong
[01:03] <tumbleweed__> it's mv
[01:03] <ally_xoxo> IndyGunFreak: how secure is that delete method?
[01:03] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: I noticed moving a window is a bit different
[01:03] <tumbleweed__> ally_xoxo : use shred for secure deletion
[01:03] <ally_xoxo> i sometimes keep bank statements that i need to securely delete
[01:03] <nickrud> Elevator_Hazard: double click the title bar
[01:03] <ally_xoxo> oh yes, that is what i wanted to use "shred"
[01:03] <syntaxerror55> xomp, download the file, you'll get a .deb package, install it. That fixed all my flash problems. :)
[01:03] <theAtom> how can i wipe free space in ubuntu plz?
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> ally_xoxo: well, when you delete somethig that was a root file, thats the only way you can delete it... it should be just as secure as a regular delete, it just means there's a root file that needs removed from ./Trash
[01:03] <Elevator_Hazard> nickrud: didn't do any nifty resize effect.
[01:03] <tumbleweed__> type shred --help for options to make the deletion more secure
[01:03] <theAtom> NickPresta, any ideas?
[01:03] <penol> nickrud, the error was - unrecqnice string | and my menu.lst is = http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/52721/

[01:11] <misslecommander> the  second installation detected the one from the first(this account) , how do i find out which one is using it ?
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> theAtom: then use partedmagic or gparted... geez.
[01:11] <tumbleweed__> you'd have to download the ps2 version and set up your usb guitar as a controller, I guess
[01:11] <con-man> tumbleweed__: maybe it will recognize my guitar
[01:11] <theAtom> nalioth,  how can i wipe free space in ubuntu plz?

[01:11] <Flannel> theAtom: "scrub hard drive" implies everything.  Maybe if instead of lashing out randomly, if you asked a proper question, we'd be able to better help you.
[01:11] <misslecommander> i can recover this account, but i need both working for this account to work
[01:11] <tumbleweed__> Flannel : he wants to overwrite the free space over and over
[01:11] <con-man> tumbleweed__: I have legally purchased it, so downloading is fine
[01:11] <marx2k> Not sure why I am having a problem with this, but I have the directory "apache-tomcat-6.0.14" in my home directory.  I want to copy it as /usr/bin/tomcat6 (so the contents of the "apache-tomcat-6...." directory can be in /usr/bin/tomcat6 - but when I issue the command sudo "cp -R apache-tomcat-6.0.14 /usr/share/tomcat6", it puts the directory into /usr/bin/tomcat6/aoache-tomcat-6.0.14

[01:11] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[01:11] <nickrud> penol: it should make no reason, but try editing menu.lst, go to the very end, and if the end is after +1 on the chainloader line, hit enter. Grabbing at straws for a sec
[01:11] <Flannel> misslecommander: check your fstab
[01:11] <tumbleweed__> theAtom : insulting people doesn't help
[01:12] <misslecommander> Flannel: thank you, will do

[01:13] <marx2k> like if I am in ~/ and I want to copy ~/a into ~/b but I dont want it to be ~/a/b but rather ~/a/contents-of-b ... how is that done?

[01:17] <wharp> GoetzC: what do you mean "updated repo"  Is there a specific problem you're having?
[01:18] <xomp> not sure how much ram I have lol, anyway to tell?
[01:18] <syntaxerror55> xomp, yes
[01:18] <xomp> only program I'm running now is xchat

[01:18] <syntaxerror55> xomp, and copy/paste the "Mem:" line
[01:18] <penol> nickrud, do Xchat have support for muliservers
[01:18] <vrkhans> does any one know any utility which can convert multiple *jif files to jepg

[01:19] <syntaxerror55> xomp, that's double what I have. Hmmm....
[01:19] <vrkhans> any one know any utility which i can use
[01:20] <syntaxerror55> xomp, I really don't know why
[01:20] <xomp> yeah, I think compiz is bringing me down lol
[01:20] <Dr_Willis> vrkhans:  gimp can do that.  unless you want an automated tool
[01:20] <syntaxerror55> xomp, you didn't mention Compiz
[01:20] <ally_xoxo> is this a valid shred command? shred -z -u -n200 /home/ally/test/*
[01:20] <syntaxerror55> xomp, that's definitely why
[01:20] <tmp> syntaxerror55, isn't there some file in /proc that tells you
[01:20] <Flannel> misslecommander: and, you're wondering where the swap space is so you can share it?  Right now you have no swap space.  You have five ntfs partitions, three on on drive, two on the other, and then on the former drive, you have another partition, which has your linux install on it
[01:20] <misslecommander> vrkhans: photoshop
[01:20] <ally_xoxo> does that delete only "test" folder?
[01:20] <penol> how can i join more servers with Xchat?
[01:20] <wharp> vrkhans: ImageMagic
[01:20] <GoetzC> hi wharp, I'm only searching a repo like the trevino's repo for feisty, because y want to use the new plugins like freewins and maybe there is something better in the core code.
[01:20] <xomp> not sure how good my graphics card is but ppl say it's more than enough. My lspci -nn | grep VGA reports this; 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500] [1002:4c57]
[01:20] <Flannel> misslecommander: Right now, we can't tell whats on each NTFS drive (well, at least not from the fstab), you'll have to either compare sizes, or drive contents or something like that
[01:20] <syntaxerror55> tmp, I'm not sure.
[01:21] <misslecommander> Flannel: yes, that is correct. i didnt want to mess with the swapfile as that is on an account that allows me to use this one
[01:21] <vrkhans> Dr_Willis: there are around 200 to 300 gif files which I want to convert into jepg
[01:21] <syntaxerror55> xomp, #comiz
[01:21] <syntaxerror55> xomp, #compiz*
[01:21] <ally_xoxo> IndyGunFreak: you there?
[01:21] <Dr_Willis> vrkhans:  check out the imagemagik tools then for scriptable commands.
[01:21] <wharp> GoetzC: Ah, I don't have any experience with that.
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> ally_xoxo: sure...
[01:21] <Dr_Willis> !find imagemag

[01:21] <penol> how can i join more servers with Xchat?
[01:22] <misslecommander> Flannel: if i can manage somehow, i will want to remove the other account from using it, so this one, will be the only one using it.
[01:22] <Dr_Willis> penol:  use the menus, open a new server tab join.
[01:22] <vrkhans> wharp: where i can find image magic is that free or licences

[01:23] <ubotu> vrkhans: Found: imagemagick, graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat

[01:27] <creature> So, I have a RAID setup in which /boot is on an unencrypted RAID1 device on 2 HDs. This should then load the rest of the system from an encrypted RAID5 device across 4 HDs. I recently changed which IDE channel some of these drives were on, and now things don't boot. How do I get my system booting again?
[01:27] <creature> I have 4 HDs. for 2 of them, It hits 'Verifying DMI Pool Data' and doesn't do anything else. Just hangs. For the other 2 it drops to 'Boot from CD:' and hangs, because there's on CD in the drive.
[01:27] <chickin> dman well, Im not using ubuntu, im using winxp on a very old comp and the mouse works for every thing elce :/
[01:27] <dman> chickin: what's wrong wih it? it just won't move th cursor?
[01:27] <creature> This is probably be expected, as 2 of the drives make up a RAID1 array of /boot, and so will have the bootable flag set.

[01:28] <dman> go to system information > hardware tab > device manager

[01:35] <JonathanEllis> Hi. Can anyone tell me how to get the forward and back buttons working on a Logitech Cordless Trackman Optical? Thanks
[01:35] <Hilikus> bruenig how do i chekc if theres anything under that pattern?
[01:35] <houman123> ok i did upgrade but there is no new xorg servers to download, the topic says it should have been fixed, i have feisty
[01:35] <bruenig> Hilikus, you just want to know if there are files in /etc that end in .conf?
[01:35] <DG19075> I installed the secure delete app What would it be listed in in the Main Menu?
[01:35] <Hilikus> bruenig yes

[01:35] <vlt> creature: Ok, but how to configure it *not* to wait 3600 ms before doing the songchange when I press "next"?
[01:35] <bruenig> Hilikus, there are a variety of ways, a quick and dirty way is "ls /etc | grep "\.conf$"
[01:36] <Hilikus> bruenig i tried `ls blah` but when its empty ls returns an error
[01:36] <creature> vlt: I don't use the plugin myself, but I'd have hoped there was an option in the 'configure' section?
[01:36] <Chamunks> In gnome is there a different keypress to do a screenshot of just my focused window?
[01:36] <ott0> can I change the order in which the deskbar web search engines (from firefox) appear?
[01:36] <Hilikus> i mean -z `ls
[01:36] <ott0> if I change the order in firefox it doens't affect the deskbar order
[01:36] <greg-g> Chamunks: ALT + PrintScreen
[01:36] <wyclif> thank you ubotu
[01:37] <RazzoRz> so when is hardy Supposed to be released?
[01:37] <Chamunks> greg-g, thanks ill try that
[01:37] <wharp> Chamunks: alt + print screen
[01:37] <bruenig> ott0, they are completely different programs
[01:37] <wyclif> screen + vim FTW
[01:37] <vlt> creature: hmmm, can't find any "do exactly what user wants" option there ;-)
[01:37] <IndyGunFreak> RazzoRz: Hardy is 8.04.. so April of 08
[01:37] <Jouva> Is there any way to get the ati or radeon drivers more optimized OR a way to get the binary drivers to work on a Radeon 9200? I heard the closed source drivers only work on 9600 on up.
[01:37] <RazzoRz> Nice!..
[01:37] <Cpudan80> RazzoRz: April
[01:37] <creature> vlt: http://www.eisenlohr.org/xmms-crossfade/screenshots.html
[01:37] <ott0> bruenig: i see. so is there a way to change the order?
[01:38] <chickin> dman i'm chacking, sorry
[01:38] <Chamunks> wharp, thanks lots!
[01:38] <vlt> creature: I've looked at all these already :(
[01:38] <houman123> can anyone help me with xorg? people say it should have been fixed, but i upgraded so many times, there is no new xorgs
[01:38] <Jouva> Cause everything I read says the binary drivers don't work with Radeon 9200
[01:38] <greg-g> houman123: what is the problem?
[01:38] <bruenig> houman123, ctrl + alt + backspace
[01:38] <RazzoRz> i have a issues setting up shard folders... i add my home dir and make it windows Smb ,,, but when i hit close it disappears ...
[01:38] <creature> vlt: Is that the same plugin you have?
[01:39] <chickin> dman, the prob, I only have one keyboard, i'll have to move the keyboard to send ya messages, ill try the on screen keyboard though :) heh
[01:39] <houman123> bruenig: i rather login and log out haha
[01:39] <vlt> creature: Yes
[01:39] <houman123> bruenig: thanks
[01:39] <chickin> dman, well, here we go! bye!
[01:39] <bruenig> houman123, hahahahaha if that actually restarted x that would be clever hahahahahaha
[01:39] <creature> vlt: in the 'crossfade' tab there's a 'length' option in the fade out section, and a corresponding option in the 'fade in' setting.
[01:40] <dman> chickin: k
[01:40] <Onyx> is there a way to change my screen resolution from within gnome?
[01:40] <chickin> there: this s useing the on screen keyoard :)
[01:41] <dman> onyx: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[01:41] <dman> chickin: does it show up in device manager?
[01:41] <Onyx> dman: Thanks a bunch :)
[01:41] <dman> np

[01:42] <RazzoRz> i add my home dir and make it windows Smb ,,, but when i hit close it disappears ...
[01:42] <agreenmac> can someone please help me?  im having trouble installing 7.10
[01:42] <santiagozky> hi, does anyone has set up pulseaudio under 7.10?
[01:43] <RazzoRz> agreenmac: just ask
[01:43] <vlt> creature: Yes, I've set them to the correct values: fade out 500 ms, fade in disabled, offset locked to fade out ...
[01:43] <alison> onyx: if you are there please PM
[01:43] <santiagozky> I followed the ubuntu wiki but the service isn't running. I have to run it manual
[01:43] <chickin> dman
[01:43] <agreenmac> ok so i get as far as the orange task bar and it loads all the way.  once thats done the screen just goes blank
[01:43] <Onyx> alison: What's up?
[01:43] <dman> chickin: yes?
[01:43] <agreenmac> im booting off of a live cd
[01:44] <creature> vlt: That should work then, shouldn't it? You might have to restart XMMS for it to take effect.
[01:44] <SpeakerMania> How much memory can Ubuntu pick up? For instance, If I stick 8 gigs in my motherboard can ubuntu use it properly?
[01:44] <dman> Speakermania: only in 64-bit, afaik
[01:44] <RazzoRz> agreenmac: are you sure you have the right live cd... 32 bit not 64 bit... what graphics card do you have
[01:44] <agreenmac> im not sure the comps really old
[01:44] <SpeakerMania> dman, okay, thanks
[01:44] <amidaniel> SpeakerMania: If you have a 64 bit processor, yes. If you have a 32 bit processor it will only pick up ~2GB
[01:44] <agreenmac> im like a total noob
[01:44] <RazzoRz> how old
[01:45] <RazzoRz> what you running
[01:45] <dman> agreenmac: probably 32 bit then
[01:45] <agreenmac> ok
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> agreenmac: you might try the alternate install CD if its that old, it might not have enough Ram to run the liev CD
[01:45] <agreenmac> so i need a different live cd?
[01:45] <SpeakerMania> amidaniel: It is 4 gigs. :) I just didn't know if my whole rig had to be 64, but if my mobo supports a 64-bit proc then it will work dman?
[01:45] <Onyx> alison: ?
[01:45] <chickin> dman: srry, bad click:/ i am going to try to use a progrm to instal ubuntu but the keyboard orks right now :/
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate | agreenmac
[01:45] <ubotu> agreenmac: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode installation CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD.  It can also be used as an upgrade CD. - See also !minimal
[01:45] <wyclif> is Thurston in here right now?
[01:45] <ott0> what's the difference between stop process and end process?
[01:45] <dman> Speakermania: 32-bit can only address 4 gb. a little over 1 gb of that is internal memory addresses, so ~3gb is usable
[01:45] <alison> yes
[01:45] <agreenmac> thanks
[01:46] <alison> im talking to you in PM :)
[01:46] <RazzoRz> ya what they said
[01:46] <alison> hehe
[01:46] <fbc> How do enable single-click?
[01:46] <alison> you can't see it?
[01:46] <amidaniel> SpeakerMania: Yeah, the processor has to be 64 bits too.
[01:46] <SpeakerMania> dman, thanks
[01:46] <achilles> hi, if i wanna programm in python and c++ ect... and i use photoshop is linux worth using?
[01:46] <amidaniel> SpeakerMania: And sorry, 4GB? :)
[01:46] <SpeakerMania> amidaniel, thanks
[01:46] <dman> chickin: the keyboard works then?
[01:46] <SpeakerMania> amidaniel: yeah
[01:46] <dman> np
[01:46] <alison> onyx: does your pm not work?
[01:46] <RazzoRz> System>Preffrences >mouse
[01:46] <chickin> it types, but im in windows
[01:46] <DOOM_NX> why everytime a video finishes playback on MPlayer i get an error? gnome_screensaver_control()
[01:46] <Onyx> alison: It's working..... I pm'd you.
[01:47] <agreenmac> where can i get an alternative install cd?/
[01:47] <ubud> anyone using mythbuntu?
[01:47] <Onyx> alison: you might have to register your nickname for your PM to work though...
[01:47] <alison> okay
[01:47] <IndyGunFreak> agreenmac: the same place you downloaded the live CD
[01:47] <alison> oh yeah
[01:47] <fbc> RazzoRz: That won't work.
[01:47] <alison> *sigh
[01:47] <achilles> hi, if i use photoshop and i getting into programming is linux worth having?
[01:47] <alison> anyways ill talk to you in here
[01:47] <dman> chickin: okay, what do you need to do then?
[01:47] <RazzoRz> fbc: i just seen that
[01:47] <Starnestommy> either register or identify
[01:47] <alison> #onyx-world?
[01:47] <RazzoRz> one sec i seen it b4
[01:47] <alison> is that it?
[01:47] <wyclif> does mediabuntu contain approved packages?
[01:47] <IndyGunFreak> wyclif: no
[01:47] <wharp> achilles: programming should be fine, but photoshop doesn't run well in wine, depending on what version
[01:48] <dman> achilles: linux is always worth having. programming especially. photoshop doesn't work very well in linux, but gimp is pretty good
[01:48] <marx2k> Whats the command to transfer files via SSH?
[01:48] <dman> oops. someone else responded first
[01:48] <wharp> dman: your response made a bit more sense anyway :)
[01:48] <agreenmac> i dont see i 32bit live cd
[01:49] <RazzoRz> fbc: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=339228
[01:49] <dman> wharp: thx
[01:49] <fbc> RazzoRz: thanx
[01:49] <vlt> creature: I played a little with different output methods. I can reduce the delay to 350 ms using the builtin OSS driver instead of ALSA output. Any idea how to get it even lower?
[01:49] <RazzoRz> fbc: wrong one sorry
[01:49] <RazzoRz> hang tight
[01:50] <creature> vlt: Afraid not. If it doesn't work with XMMS you may want to look at a different player, like Rhythmbox or something.
[01:50] <achilles> thanks, since i use a dual boot system cause of photoshop and now i got interested in programming should i just stick to windows?
[01:50] <chickin> dman I don't know, The prob is that when I try to boot ubuntu i get to the setut but you need to press enter to get in and the keyboard doesn't work THEN!
[01:50] <vlt> creature: Thank you
[01:51] <achilles> thanks, since i use a dual boot system cause of photoshop and now i got interested in programming should i just stick to windows?
[01:51] <dman> chickin: i see. have you tried just hitting it  a bunch of times? low-tech, but sometimes it helps
[01:51] <car1584> hi
[01:51] <bcarm17> can someone help
[01:51] <greg-g> !ask
[01:51] <ubotu> Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[01:51] <chickin> dman, heh i would, but the thing is I know if its on by the green numlock light, it's not on.
[01:51] <dman> achilles: personally, i think linux is best for programming, better integration, and you cna modify any program.
[01:51] <bcarm17> wat does this mean?
[01:52] <bcarm17> udevd-event[2406]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit
[01:52] <chewd> anybody wanna help me fix the sound in xine?
[01:52] <achilles> but wouldnt i have to use windows in a company?
[01:52] <dman> chickin: that is weird. is the keyboard anything special? or just standard keyboard?
[01:52] <chewd> no sound in xine... i think its trying to output to my onboard soundcard (which is disabled)
[01:52] <snipes44> ok here is one that has be puzzled, I have been ripping some CD with Rythmbox everything working great.  Have to hit the reset button. Then computer will not boot with the cd in the drive. Gets about 75% load on the Ubuntu loading screen then just sits there. Any ideas? you could say i'm new to linux
[01:52] <fbc> RazzoRz: That doesn't seem to help me abit... I can't find the behaviors panel.
[01:53] <RazzoRz> yeah i said i gave you the wrong one... My bad .. hang tight .. think i found it
[01:53] <bcarm17> can anyone help?
[01:53] <greg-g> achilles: no necessarily, and plus, most good programmers I know use linux to develope on.  If the company knows a good programmer from a toaster they should allow you to develope on whatever platform makes sense (with-in reason of course, there are exceptions)
[01:53] <fx|RabBit> how do i find out whqat nvidia driver version i have installed?
[01:54] <bcarm17> why isn't ubuntu starting up??
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> well there could be all sorts of reason
[01:55] <bcarm17> i go a code
[01:55] <agreenmac> whys it taking so long to download the alternative live cd?
[01:55] <jengle> hi all.
[01:56] <greg-g> agreenmac: where are you downloading from?
[01:56] <agreenmac> greg-g: ubuntu.com
[01:56] <greg-g> agreenmac: what is the site you are using (is a better way to phrase my question)
[01:56] <greg-g> agreenmac: well, it is ~700 megs
[01:56] <snipes44> any ideas why Dave Mathews band - busted stuff CD hardlocks my system when it is put in to the drive?
[01:56] <bcarm17> IndyGunFreak: i got an error code
[01:57] <achilles> let me say it better why code in linux if windows is the industry standerd?
[01:57] <greg-g> snipes44: only that cd?  Have you tried booting with other cds in the drive?
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> bcarm17: ok..
[01:57] <fbc> RazzoRz: ahh found it in a nautilus window..
[01:57] <bcarm17> udevd-event[2406]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit

[01:57] <RazzoRz> i was getting there .. LMAO sorry
[01:58] <greg-g> agreenmac: are you using bittorrent?
[01:58] <agreenmac> no

[01:58] <twelve> hi
[01:58] <vontux> if I wanted to find out the wep key of a network I am currently connect to, which one of my configuration files would I look in?

[01:58] <twelve> Apprentice stop that
[01:59] <bcarm17> IndyGunFreak: do u get that
[01:59] <Apprentice> twelve zé ruela, q canal idiota
[01:59] <achilles> mosno for programming?
[01:59] <greg-g> achilles: for programming you use what is better for your application, which depends on the company/application.  My advice, it will NEVER HURT to learn how to programe on linux
[01:59] <mosno> achilles: it was a joke, but generally Linux is more "standard" than Windows. ps. no need to repeat
[01:59] <twelve> UIuehiaea
[01:59] <Apprentice> twelve ubuntu é sistema para zé ruela auhdahduahduahda

[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> JonathanEllis: gksudo /path/to/file
[01:59] <dman> it requires root permissions
[01:59] <snipes44> greg-g: np   only thing I can think of is it has something do with the "enhanced" part of the CD   is there way to make it so that it doesn't autorun?
[01:59] <greg-g> JonathanEllis: in the terminal "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[01:59] <JonathanEllis> Thanks
[01:59] <LoroNarco> lingua portuguesa aqui no meio
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> *oops, forgot gedit
[02:00] <greg-g> JonathanEllis: but always back it up first "sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup"

[02:03] <twelve> • astro76 •: ok sry
[02:03] <LoroNarco> LOL Ok!
[02:03] <achilles> i have ubuntu and kubuntu what should i choose? for programming
[02:03] <bcarm17> why won't my ubuntu live cd work??
[02:04] <Apprentice> blabla
[02:04] <Starnestommy> achilles: either works
[02:04] <dman> achilles: they are both basically the same, just diffwerent interface. programs work in both. your choice.
[02:04] <Starnestommy> bcarm17: are you getting any error messages?
[02:04] <wyclif> bcarm17 do you have i386 or 64bit?
[02:04] <bcarm17> both
[02:04] <RazzoRz> is there a app that records a desktop that is able to upload to youtube?... NOT ogg format

[02:04] <greg-g> achilles: which ever one you want, the difference between those is only the user interface, not the underlying stuff (in very general terms)
[02:04] <bcarm17> thats the error code
[02:04] <vontux> robdig: would iwconfig eth1  pull up my wep key too?
[02:04] <astro76> RazzoRz: did you investigate the other 5 in that list?
[02:05] <achilles> ok thanks:)

[02:05] <robdig> vontux: dont think so
[02:05] <jscinoz> hey guys
[02:05] <Starnestommy> bcarm17: the file /sbin/modprobe on the livecd may be corrupt
[02:05] <RazzoRz> Was asking if one knew Witch is able to be used with youtube!
[02:05] <vontux> robdig: because my interfaces file doesn't have my wep key in it

[02:05] <ToxicSoul> Hey, I just installed the fluxbox packages from synpatic but when I boot to fluxbox the menu doesn't show on right-click
[02:05] <bcarm17> i got two discs with the same error
[02:05] <robdig> vontux: hmm...
[02:06] <bcarm17> one 64 bit and one i386
[02:06] <wyclif> ToxicSoul am considering installing fluxbox since GNOME is not lean and mean enough for me.  how do you like it?
[02:06] <greg-g> RazzoRz: I would suggest that Google is your friend in investigating which one works with youtube
[02:07]  * regeya missed what the question wsa bout youtube
[02:07] <wyclif> i remember blackbox and how great that was, so...it seems natural
[02:07] <ubud> how to make kaffeine the default player for live radio?
[02:07] <RazzoRz> HAHA google is MY best friend.. Trust me!.. but if i dont have to trial and error... and if one knows ( ie ) having done it b4 ... witch ones works the best!
[02:07] <regeya> was about, even...RazzoRz?
[02:07] <jnascimento> jscinoz: you may try "s/\(.{8}\)/[\1]/g"
[02:07] <ToxicSoul> wyclif: I've used it once or twice and have come to like it but for some reason it doesn't want to work right on my desktop here =\
[02:07] <jnascimento> this should word
[02:07] <achilles> i think ill stick to windows cause must of the software that i will make will be windows anyways:(
[02:07] <jnascimento> work
[02:07] <jnascimento> jscinoz: pvt me?
[02:07] <leafwiz> Is there a easy platform for streaming video? I know of VLC, but doing that over a linux box is a bit timeconsuming.. I would like something like kPlaylist
[02:07] <jscinoz> what is pvt me?
[02:08] <jscinoz> ill try that regexp one sec
[02:08] <ezquimo> init 0
[02:08] <bcarm17> Starnestommy:  i have both i386 and 64 bit versions of ubuntu 7.10
[02:08] <regeya> wyclif:  I feel that way about Window Maker...I guess if anyone were to modernize it a bit more, and if the debian packager would apply a very minor patch to get DnD working...
[02:08] <wharp> achilles: You should try to program cross-platform that way people can use your software no matter what platform they're on.
[02:08] <dman> rgeya: he's trying to find a screencast app that is compatible w/ youtube
[02:08] <wyclif> regeya heh...
[02:09] <ToxicSoul> Anyone have any ideas why the root-menu won't show up in fluxbox?
[02:09] <JonathanEllis> Once I have edited xorg.conf do I need to reboot before the file is parsed?
[02:09] <astro76> achilles: you should look into programming with qt toolkit (what kde uses) because it's easy to do cross-platform
[02:09] <jnascimento> jscinoz:  sed "s/\(.\{8\}\)/[\1]/g"
[02:09] <jnascimento> this workds
[02:09] <regeya> ah...well, wouldn't know dman :->
[02:09] <astro76> achilles: and kdevelop is a great ide for that
[02:09] <Starnestommy> JonathanEllis: you just need to restart X
[02:09] <achilles> wharp but  its possible to make linux software in windows right?
[02:09] <JonathanEllis> Restart x? How?
[02:09] <regeya> boopy boopy
[02:09] <dman> achilles: to each his own. i used to love windows... still dual-boot just in case i need it.
[02:09] <jscinoz> yep that works jnascimento, thanks
[02:09] <Starnestommy> JonathanEllis: hit Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[02:09] <wyclif> regeya i remember i used to have WindowMaker with an Amiga theme.  my desktop looked just like an Amiga with the WM widgets.  nostalgia!
[02:10] <wharp> achilles: Yes, if you know what you're doing.
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> wyclif: Guys, Would you mind taking the discussions
[02:10] <alsuren> I have an amd64 CPU, and am currently running 32bit ubuntu. Is it worth me trying to run 64 bit?
[02:10] <bcarm17> Starnestommy: can i pm u?
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> wyclif:  to offtopic
[02:10] <Starnestommy> bcarm17: go ahead, but I'd rather keep it in-channel
[02:10] <regeya> it's very possible to write cross-platform software...there are a number of different options available.  you could go java, or maybe something like wxWidgets...there are even bindings for wxWidgets for languages such as python and ruby...
[02:10] <wyclif> what's offtopic there, Cap'n Jack?
[02:11] <achilles> warp ok than ill stick to windows since all the software i need is windows only like photoshop and office 2007 but when i develop software ill make sure its linux compatible too:)
[02:11] <NeoOokami> alsuren: You inherit some heavy performance boosts on math heavy applications, as well as some headaches with 32-bit only things.
[02:11]  * regeya has been meaning to give wxsugar a try
[02:11] <dman> alsuren: i find 32-bit to be easier usage wise. few apps yet can taken advantage of 64-bit
[02:11] <wyclif> wxsugar
[02:11] <achilles> you thank thats good?
[02:11] <DOOM_NX> why everytime a video finishes playback on MPlayer i get an error? gnome_screensaver_control()
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> wyclif:  regeya   The discussion about programming cross platform apps...
[02:11] <achilles> think*
[02:11] <wyclif> Jack_Sparrow what are you on about, mate?
[02:12] <wyclif> Jack_Sparrow that wasn't me
[02:12] <NeoOokami> achilles: If you reencode video regularly, it's likely to be worth your time. Otherwise unless you really want to milk your potential performance in only some areas - no.
[02:12] <con-man> anyone get a guitar hero control working with fof? is there a driver i need?
[02:12] <twelve> Jack_Sparrow MF?
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> wyclif: This is a support room for help with OS issues.. not about programming and such..  Just would appreciate it if you moved over to the offtopic room
[02:12] <shyguy345> hi
[02:12] <dman> con-man: i think google would be best for that. more people.
[02:13] <wyclif> Jack_Sparrow where did I discuss programming?  not here
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> wyclif: Sorry if I was mistaken...
[02:13] <ToxicSoul> Anyone have any ideas why the root-menu won't show up in fluxbox?
[02:13] <regeya> Jack_Sparrow: sorry; two other people were discussing cross-platform, thought I'd throw in my two bits.  lay off the rum, matey.
[02:13] <regeya> one line does not a conversation make.
[02:13] <pure`eigenVector> so I've made sure that ULi Electronics Device Drivers were compiled as modules in my kernel, however my computer still won't mount my raided hard drives on that uli controller... any ideas?
[02:13] <shyguy345> who dual boots xp and ubuntu?
[02:13] <Edge> I do
[02:13] <dman> regeya: nice, and true.
[02:13] <alsuren> NeoOokami: floating point or fixed point math? Are they both faster under 64bit?
[02:14] <Edge> i just set-up mine.
[02:14] <achilles> i do too
[02:14] <dman> shyguy345: i do. only use ubuntu tho most of the time
[02:14] <shyguy345> me 3
[02:14] <achilles> im finding out its not worth it
[02:14] <Edge> lol
[02:14] <achilles> its not benefiting me in any way
[02:14] <pizzel> hm
[02:14] <NeoOokami> Both I believe. Though the real performance boost comes from having twice the registers to work with.
[02:14] <jnascimento> Neookami: just for floating operation i believe
[02:14] <Edge> i am really impressed by the speed of the processing.
[02:14] <dman> shyguy345: why?
[02:14] <shyguy345> i dont know
[02:14] <NeoOokami> Tends to make applications such as compression and encoding go substantially faster.
[02:14] <pure`eigenVector> for a while I've ran ubuntu under vmware in windows... but now I'm trying to run xp in vmware running under ubuntu
[02:15] <pure`eigenVector> but I'm having trouble mounting my drive that has my vm on it :/
[02:15] <achilles> just stick to windows
[02:15] <|Quest|> how to run mac osx on linux?  i dont have mac. i have a pc
[02:15] <shyguy345> pure`eigenVector: same with me
[02:15] <ArthurArchnix> |Quest|: Have you tried VirtualBox?
[02:15] <shyguy345> yea
[02:16] <shyguy345> well i have
[02:16] <pure`eigenVector> shyguy345:  I want to use Ubuntu-amd64 to allow me to make use of all 4 gb of memory without buying winx64
[02:16] <gaminggeek> Anyone else here use deluge?
[02:16] <|Quest|> ArthurArchnix yes. i use it
[02:16] <ArthurArchnix> |Quest|: Hmm... never mind. I don't see MacOS as a supported Gust OS
[02:17] <pure`eigenVector> but I'm about this close : [--] to switching back... linux hates my hardware
[02:17] <dman> eigenvector: good idea. winxp64 is not a good os. it's not actually based on xp, and very few apps support it.
[02:17] <TallHunkDan> help
[02:17] <Jack_Sparrow> pure`eigenVector: WHich hardware isnt working out?
[02:17] <TallHunkDan> firefoc browser cnt start

[02:17] <achilles> in my school there is no linuxbox   all the xp boxes have the programming software so linux is not worth it:(
[02:17] <pure`eigenVector> Jack_Sparrow my raid controller
[02:17] <|Quest|> ArthurArchnix any other way?
[02:17] <i3ear> Hey, im a linux n00b
[02:17] <i3ear> So
[02:17] <TallHunkDan> i set it to tahoma font as default and now it wont start
[02:17] <shyguy345> my library uses ubuntu
[02:18] <gaminggeek> anyone able to run deluge after the update yesterday?
[02:18] <dman> achilles: wndows might be best for you then. it's different for everyone.
[02:18] <i3ear> Can anyone help me out installing Synthedit (An XP modular synth) on my computer through WINE?
[02:18] <Jack_Sparrow> pure`eigenVector: Yea, I can understand that.. so many are not true hardware controllers just WinRaid.. Stuff
[02:18] <TallHunkDan> how can i change the default font for firefox browser if i cant open it?
[02:18] <achilles> yeah sorry
[02:18] <achilles> thanks for everything:)
[02:18] <i3ear> I tried installing it though the GUI
[02:18] <achilles> maybe someday ill make the switch
[02:18] <achilles> if need
[02:18] <i3ear> but nothing happened
[02:19] <i3ear> right clicking it and going to "Open with WINE"
[02:19] <pure`eigenVector> Jack_Sparrow: just wish I could figure it out... I may just have to go back to windows temporarily to backup that drive and re mount them independantly since the fakeraid doesn't help much anyways
[02:19] <corinth> Is there a way to disable the hover tooltips in the panel?
[02:19] <ArthurArchnix> |Quest|: I've never tried this, but I assume that if you got it up and running, you could then repartition and install Ubuntu in a dualboot scenario. http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
[02:19] <agreenmac> while im installing.. whats a good video editing program for ubuntu
[02:19] <Jack_Sparrow> pure`eigenVector: Agreed, fakeraid isnt worth the hassle.. If you MUST have raid.. get a real hardware controller
[02:19] <Breakage> I installed a metacity theme "gilouche" but now I cant remove it and use a standard theme if I change window border in appearance it just changes to a different colour gilouche. How do I remove this and get it back like it was before?
[02:20] <TallHunkDan> FIREFOX WONT START -> I accidentally sset the default font to Tahoma and now I cant open it.
[02:20] <TallHunkDan> Is there any other way i can reset the browser settings without openning it?
[02:20] <ArthurArchnix> |Quest|: People there have got Mac OS running on Intel PC;s
[02:20] <nownot> any help on this error import: error while loading shared libraries: libMagick.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:20] <lemduc> hey
[02:20] <JonathanElli1> Help please. I am trying to configure My Logitech Cordless Trackman Optical so that the back/forward buttons work. I have added the line Option "Buttons" "7"  to xorg.conf as recommended in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto but I dont know how to map the buttons correctly?
[02:20] <dman> TallHunkDan: can't see why that would affect it... but /home/USERNAME/.mozilla/firefox/bunchofrandomletters.default/might have something in it.
[02:20] <lemduc> i down know thawt to do
[02:20] <lemduc> ........
[02:20] <pure`eigenVector> Jack_Sparrow: well thanks for the help... better to hear it just doesn't work, than to fight with it for another few days with no result
[02:20] <lemduc> :D
[02:20] <lemduc> hee
[02:20] <lemduc> thoi
[02:20] <lemduc> out day

[02:20] <pizzel> damn it feels good to be a gangster
[02:20] <TallHunkDan> ok ill try
[02:20] <ArthurArchnix> |Quest|: Natch.
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> pure`eigenVector: Granted, that is just my opinion...
[02:21] <marx2k> quick question. Just installed tomcat, made an experimentation directory to put html and jsp files into /var/www/java  ... my CLASSPATH is .:/usr/lib/jdk1.6.0_04/bin:/usr/share/tomcat6/lib/servlet-api.jar:/usr/share/tomcat6/lib/jsp-api.jar:/var/www/java    ... but when I try to hit any fil in /var/www/java, I am getting 404 errors
[02:21] <Breakage> is there still a desktop effects channel??
[02:21] <|Quest|> ArthurArchnix natch?
[02:21] <marx2k> any ideas?
[02:21] <snipes44> does holding shift when inserting a CD/DVD disable autostart like in windows?
[02:21] <wyclif> installing bison
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Breakage: Yes, #Compiz
[02:22] <pure`eigenVector> you can disable autostart per-media like that in windows? didn't know that
[02:22] <Breakage> Jack_Sparrow~ Thanks :)
[02:22] <dman> snipes44: idk, but if you find out tell us. would be nice to know.
[02:22] <snipes44> yep :-)
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[02:22] <pure`eigenVector> snipes44: I just disabled it all together, but thats good to know

[02:23] <JonathanElli1> Help please. I am trying to configure My Logitech Cordless Trackman Optical so that the back/forward buttons work. I have added the line Option "Buttons" "7"  to xorg.conf as recommended in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto but I dont know how to map the buttons correctly?
[02:23] <snipes44> found out about the shift thing in windows when i bought a dave mathews cd that installs software on your system so that you can't rip/copy the CD. With know warning!!!!!
[02:23] <dman> JonathanElli1: I suggest continuing to mess with it and/or checking links on that page.
[02:23] <corinth> !patience | JonathanEllil
[02:23] <ubotu> JonathanEllil: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[02:24] <ArthurArchnix> snipes44: You want to disable autplay?
[02:24] <dman> snipes44: one of those f-ed up sony cds? won't do it in linux tho, so good.
[02:24] <JonathanElli1> OK Thanks. Sorry I am new to all this
[02:25] <snipes44> ArthurArchnix: just for one CD that hardlocks my system when its inserted
[02:25] <ArthurArchnix> snipes44: Ah... not sure how to do it just for one cd, sorry.
[02:25] <TallHunkDan> thaks guys
[02:26] <TallHunkDan> Ubuntu is the best!
[02:26] <TrX_> Hi all, Have been trying on and off for weeks to get suspend to ram working on my HP laptop... And come here in desperation... The ubuntu laptop testing team's page for this laptop (Compaq nx6325) Says it works, but gives no details
[02:26] <dman> TallHunkDan: agreed
[02:26] <jscinoz> hey again guys
[02:26] <snipes44> dman: nah its an BMG/RCA cd   Dave Mathews Band - Busted Stuff
[02:26] <TrX_> Have tried allsorts, even decompiled the DSDT to check it has no inherent problems, and nope, no errors
[02:27] <con-man> anyone here know how to get the USB guiatar hero 3 controller working in linux?
[02:27] <con-man> fof doesnt recognize it
[02:27] <TrX_> can someone please help me?
[02:27] <jscinoz> as i before requested a sed regexp to add characters every 8 characters. this works fine but i also need another one that removes left over characters, how would this be done?
[02:27] <snipes44> ArthurArchnix: ok what about for diabling for everything
[02:27] <dman> snipes44: well, sounds like a good cd. i suggest google
[02:27] <ArthurArchnix> snipes44: If it's just one cd though, you could disable autostart, rip the cd with sounjuicer, and burn it anew, turn autostart back on?
[02:28] <dman> ArthurArchnix: i think he wants to know how. me too.
[02:28] <wyclif> yo, skull!
[02:28] <snipes44> dman: ya not find what I'm looking for in google....yet   lol
[02:28] <dman> snipes44: wow. a rare case. good luck!
[02:29] <zachalink> it says .rar is an unsupported archive type..
[02:29] <zachalink> any fix for this?
[02:29] <ArthurArchnix> snipes44: Use gconf-editor.. in a terminal "gconf-editor", then search for autostart and check the box that says include key names. Then uncheck the keys that says "autoplay cda", "autoplay dvd", "autoplay vcd".
[02:29] <snipes44> trying to do the switch to linux from windows 30 day trial ripping music is very important for me since I have a very large collection
[02:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !unrar
[02:29] <dman> zachalink: sudo apt-get install unrar
[02:29] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[02:30] <snipes44> ArthurArchnix: ok will try that
[02:30] <zachalink> ty, bye
[02:30] <ArthurArchnix> snipes44: dman A restart Ctrl+Alt+Backspace may be required.
[02:30] <dman> zachalink: unrar will decompress. have to pay to compress w/ rar
[02:30] <snipes44> is there and advanteage to riping with sound juicer over rythmbox?
[02:30] <snipes44> '
[02:30] <DjZisko> DjZisko
[02:30] <snipes44> been using rythmbox   seems to work fine
[02:30] <zachalink> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.   what now?
[02:30] <ArthurArchnix> snipes44: Perhaps more control over the extraction method and quality of rip.
[02:31] <DjZisko> Hi Guys
[02:31] <shayne> how do i have my website accessable without using a default route?
[02:31] <dman> ArthurArchnix: thanks. just wanted to know in case i needed it. ctr-alt-bkspace is really handy in linux.
[02:31] <snipes44> ArthurArchnix: ya more then likely will have to restart x
[02:31] <zachalink> so... wat now
[02:31] <phreck> emerald just ate shite on me
[02:31] <phreck> whats the command to bring it back up again?
[02:31] <ArthurArchnix> dman: snipes44 My pleasure. Indeed. I love the lack of restarts required on linux.
[02:32] <nownot> how would i install this pkg form command line http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/graphics/imagemagick ??
[02:32] <dman> zachalink: standard archive manager will decompress rars.
[02:32] <dman> now.
[02:32] <Jack_Sparrow> dman: I try to avoid ctrl-alt-backsapce ....  Make sure if you use it you shut everything down
[02:32] <dman> nownot: sudo apt-get install imagemagick
[02:32] <bkar> shayne what do you mean by that?
[02:32] <wharp> nownot: sudo apt-get install imagemagick
[02:32] <zachalink> it says it is not supported...
[02:32] <nownot> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 19 not upgraded.
[02:32] <snipes44> ArthurArchnix: so gconf-editor is like regedit in windows?
[02:32] <dman> dman: i know. it is useful when needed tho. better than hard power down at least to cure a freeze
[02:33] <nownot> but when i do confer --version i get convert: error while loading shared libraries: libMagick.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:33] <dman> snipes44: kind of. more user friendly, with less settings. the system doesn't depend on it as much.
[02:33] <ArthurArchnix> snipes44: Not really. It seems like it, but the registry in Windows has no comparison in... anything. :)
[02:33] <ArthurArchnix> snipes44: Like dman says.
[02:33] <snipes44> ArthurArchnix: lol
[02:34] <nownot> wharp, dman: i installed from package but get error when i check version
