[12:04] <computer_Newbee> please help
[12:04] <HuibertGill> computer_Newbee: is there some kind of "About Computer" info thingy, and does it say anything about a INtel CPU?

[12:07] <mosibfu> saftle: that will do the trick
[12:07] <mizz> Usiu, that wasn't nice
[12:07] <mosibfu> saftle: just read the readme carefully hehe ;)

[12:09] <computer_Newbee> ok i found out that my mac os x has the processor intel core dua. so what version of ubuntu should i download? Sun UltraSPARC based?
[12:09] <Nom-> Now i'll have to go play around with anti-aliasing settings just so i'm not wasting the second card ^_^
[12:09] <Jangari> hey folks, i'm stuck behind an institutional firewall most of the day, does synaptic work still? it allows only http from outside
[12:09] <computer_Newbee> duo*
[12:09] <Slart> computer_Newbee: get the regular 32bit version... or 64 bit if you really want it
[12:09] <mosibfu> saftle: hehe here to help, the configs will switch, dont know if either of the drivers need extra commands tho, so if you give me debug info i can fix them if they dont work
[12:10] <brobostigon> compuiter_newbee, i think you will need x86 ubuntu
[12:10] <HuibertGill> computer_Newbee: AFAIK you need the 'normal' intel X86 'windows machines' version
[12:10] <mosibfu> saftle: just be careful, the config switcher will restart gnome, so any unsaved changes in the GUI will be lsot :P
[12:10] <saftle> mosibfu: hmmm, kk, will give it a shot, if it works or if it doesn't, I'll come back and tell you.

[12:11] <mosibfu> saftle: ok mate, all u need to do is make the proper configs for each of your settings, thats all now ;) (as stated in the readme)
[12:11] <computer_Newbee> well my cd is x86 and it didnt work, so maybe 64 bit will work?
[12:11] <mizz> noo computer_Newbee that is for amd
[12:11] <padski> my mouse is a bit sensitive, how do I adjust that ?
[12:11] <computer_Newbee> nevermind
 computer_Newbee: get the regular 32bit version... or 64 bit if you really want it
[12:12] <Pici> mizz: computer_Newbee: No. The AMD64 CD will work on any computer that is EMT64 compatible, which includes most 64bit Intel cards

[12:12] <mizz> padski, in system/preferences/mouse
[12:12] <Jangari> system > prefs > mouse, you want 'acceleration'
[12:12] <Jangari> turn it down, but not too much, it's sensitive
[12:12] <Slart> computer_Newbee: huh?
[12:13] <mizz> oh ok sorry pici will it work in my intel coreduo then
[12:13] <computer_Newbee> slart, its a quote from u
 computer_Newbee: get the regular 32bit version... or 64 bit if you really want it
[12:13] <Slart> computer_Newbee: yes.. you had a question about it?
[12:13] <mosibfu> Jangari, in gutsy you can put acceleration down all the way, its not as problematic as feisty
[12:14] <Jangari> as fas as i can tell, acceleration is basically 'speed' (a misnomer really)
[12:14] <computer_Newbee> my mac os x runs has intel core duo
[12:14] <Jangari> down all the way would be the slowest
[12:14] <subpar> anyone wanna help me with some wireless problems? I've tried installing the drivers with ndiswrapper, which didn't work, and that's the extent of my knowledge
[12:14] <computer_Newbee> my mac os x has intel core duo
[12:14] <Jangari> anyone help me out with synaptic manager?
[12:14] <computer_Newbee> ok i found out that my mac os x has the processor intel core dua. so what version of ubuntu should i download? Sun UltraSPARC based?
[12:14] <Jangari> will it work behind a firewall that blocks all external non-http servers?
[12:14] <computer_Newbee> ok i found out that my mac os x has the processor intel core duo. so what version of ubuntu should i download? Sun UltraSPARC based?

[12:15] <computer_Newbee> i get error screen when booting ubuntu with my mac pc. mac os x 10.4
[12:15] <Jangari> but looking at the details, it seems they're http servers,
[12:16] <Jangari> so they should be allowed by the firewall
[12:16] <mizz> Jangari, u set the dns right?
[12:16] <Slart> computer_Newbee: and you'll probably want v7.10 Desktop edition

[12:16] <Jangari> well, my browser and email were working
[12:16] <Pici> ...
[12:16] <Jangari> and i had the right proxy on
[12:16] <aguitel> Jangari: do you need to enable all repo in synaptic
[12:16] <Jangari> in system, prefs, proxy, that is
[12:16] <computer_Newbee> i think it is display screen issue
[12:16] <Jangari> no i tried all that,
[12:16] <computer_Newbee> maybe video card
[12:17] <computer_Newbee> i try to boot safe graphics mode but that wont work either
[12:17] <Jangari> now i have roaming enabled (not behind the firewall though) and it worked fine
[12:17] <Slart> computer_Newbee: what kind of hardware is in your computer? graphics card?
[12:17] <mizz> Jangari, idk why but when i installed gutsy i set the dns to use my routers dns and my browser n stuff worked. but synaptic did not, until i set the dns to the dns server instead of the router
[12:17] <Jangari> that's the reason i brought the machine home, to download all the software i needed for work
[12:17] <computer_Newbee> ubuntu screen stqarts and all but never ends up starting up completely
[12:18] <subpar> anyone wanna help me with some wireless problems? I've tried installing the drivers with ndiswrapper, which didn't work, and that's the extent of my knowledge
[12:18] <computer_Newbee> i dont know, how do i check that?
[12:18] <Jangari> yeah, it's complicated, subpar
[12:18] <subpar> very complicated
[12:18] <subpar> my roomate gave me his old laptop, and it works amazing with ubuntu... minus wireless
[12:18] <Jangari> installing the drivers didn't work?
[12:18] <subpar> nope
[12:19] <subpar> when I go to network-admin it doesn't see a wireless interface
[12:19] <Jangari> sudo ndiswrapper -i /directory/of/driver.inf? or something? (case sensitive)
[12:19] <subpar> yeah
[12:19] <subpar> then i did ndiswrapper -l to make sure it installed
[12:19] <subpar> it said it was installed fine
[12:19] <Jangari> tried ndiswrapper -l to see if it's listed?
[12:19] <subpar> then sudo ndiswrapper -m
[12:19] <Jangari> ah
[12:19] <Jangari> right
[12:19] <subpar> yeah it is
[12:20] <Slart> computer_Newbee: hmm.. if you had ubuntu running I could tell you.. =)... I guess I was hoping you remembered from when you bought the computer..
[12:20] <subpar> after that, i rebooted, and still nothing
[12:20] <mizz> hi can someoone please help me I am having trouble with my usb drive, it has 2 partitions, but only the 2nd one seems to mount automatically, although it used to mount both
[12:20] <Jangari> did you follow the instructions on the ubuntu forum page? they're pretty concise, but i needed extra help
[12:20] <Teknomancer> can someone please paste me their GRUB menu.list file please???  I did not install the bootloader and i get some strange error when Ubuntu boots.
[12:20] <subpar> well I followed one of them...
[12:20] <Jangari> can you manually mount it, mizz?
[12:21] <DamienCassou> hi
[12:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Teknomancer: the odds of theirs working for you is not good

[12:21] <subpar> hopefully I won't be back later :)
[12:21] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:  yes i'm aware of hte partition numbers
[12:21] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:  i just want to see if it matches my old Debian /initrd etc
[12:21] <mizz> Jangari,  i dont know how
[12:21] <mizz> !mount

[12:22] <DamienCassou> the gnome bars on my screen are smaller than the screen size. The bottom bar is not on the bottom of the screen. I have a monitor plugged on my laptop. Can somebody help me ? It's a brand new gutsy installation
[12:22] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:  because i had debian in that partition and installed ubuntu and booted ubuntu without changing menu.lst
[12:23] <maxb> Is there any way to configure apt-get to respond to http authentication challenges?
[12:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Teknomancer: I have feisty on this box so that probably wont help you
[12:23] <Jangari> DamienCassou: what's past the panels?
[12:24] <Jangari> i.e., is it a screen resolution issue?
[12:24] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow: oh here is how the existing menu.lst for Ubuntu looks like, it says Debian but its ubuntu. (pasting only the entry) http://phpfi.com/277520
[12:24] <Jack_Sparrow> maxb: are you using any non standard repos?
[12:25] <maxb> We have a corporate repository accessible without auth from trusted IPs. I'm wondering if it can be made visible with a password for people working remotely
[12:25] <maxb> Or whether VPN technology will be required for that. Which is a possible solution, though slightly heavyweight
[12:25] <brobostigon> computer_newbee, are you american by chance??
[12:26] <Teknomancer> the reason i chose NOT to allow ubuntu to write its bootloader is because my work requires me to have Solaris (which installs its own modified Grub, which i'm sure can boot ubuntu and i need to use that one)
[12:26] <DamienCassou> Jangari: you can move windows around
[12:26] <atlfalcons866> does ubuntu use ACL POSIX AND EXTENTED ATTRIBUTES
[12:26] <DamienCassou> Jangari: only the bars are too small
[12:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Teknomancer: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45220/        is my full version

[12:27] <habit> Good day. $ play command is not aviabile @ ubuntu. What I can found for replacing it?
[12:27] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:  can you just check whether there is a link called "vmlinuz" in /boot of your existing install?
[12:28] <jrib> atlfalcons866: check 'man mount'.  I have used the 'acl' option for ext3 with no problem in ubuntu
[12:28] <jrib> habit: aplay?
[12:28] <bullgard4> How can I install the applet of the gnome-power-manager?
[12:28] <atlfalcons866> jrib: will that work for journaled file system (JFS)?
[12:28] <rtl8139> habit: if you just need a .wav player, use aplay
[12:28] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:  and whethere there is a link named "initrd.img"  in /boot
[12:28] <jrib> atlfalcons866: I don't know, you have to read 'man mount'
[12:28] <computer_Newbee> how do i find out what video card i have with mac os x 10.4? ubuntu seems to fail when i boot from cd.
[12:28] <atlfalcons866> k
[12:28] <Jangari> quick question, i need the terminal command to copy a folder and all its contents into the /usr/share directory, for which i need su privileges,
[12:28] <Pici> habit: also `play` is in the sox package, if you really need that

[12:30] <sergiu> why should i use n7.10 and not 7.04?

[12:31] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:  but there has got to be a link named just "initrd" and "vmlinuz" without the version numbers.. or is that in "/" could u check? because the idea is it links to your specific kernel version
[12:31] <sergiu> ok, thanks
[12:31] <sergiu> any other alternative to webmin?
[12:32] <HuibertGill> mizz: can you mount the first manualy
[12:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Teknomancer: those links are in root
[12:32] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:  ah so you have links named "initrd" and "vmlinuz" (WITHOUT the version numbers in /boot) ? right ?

[12:38] <Lord_Illidan> Hi, has anyone tried Firefox 3 Beta 1 in Gutsy yet?
[12:40] <saftle> mosibfu: well, :P didn't really work.
[12:41] <arinomi> How do I eject a CD-ROM as root? -_-
[12:41] <pfwdtech> Nope but i've read reviws onthe new bookmarking/fav
[12:41] <cofeineSunshine1> arinomi, eject
[12:41] <mosibfu> saftle: get your /var/log/xorg.log and ill try to debug it
[12:41] <mosibfu> saftle: did either of the configs work?
[12:42] <subpar> was firefox supposed to stop working after upgrading?
[12:42] <ricanelite> i have Lord_Illidan and it is okay
[12:42] <ricanelite> opens faster but so far still have not really notice a BIG difference
[12:42] <saftle> mosibfu: well there was a typo at first, a / missing before etc on both scripts, I changed that, but after trying the 3d one, since i already had aiglx running, it said gmd is already on display 0, and then hung up, and then after restart I was in low graphics mode, and had to switch to my backup conf
[12:43] <Lord_Illidan> ricanelite, I am getting very aliased fonts
[12:43] <Lord_Illidan> and this error : (gecko:26917): Pango-WARNING **: shaping failure, expect ugly output. shape-engine='BasicEngineFc', font='Arial 0', text='English Hello'
[12:44] <ricanelite> umm
[12:44] <Lord_Illidan> do you have similar issues?
[12:44] <ricanelite> when you open your package manager
[12:44] <ricanelite> did you see any other files to install that will be fonts?
[12:44] <ricanelite> because i don't have a problem like that
[12:44] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[12:44] <Lord_Illidan> Ubuntu's firefox build is fine..all the other apps on my system are fine, it's just firefox beta that gives me this problem
[12:44] <ricanelite> but then again I have not really been using Firefox 3
[12:44] <Lord_Illidan> And I didn't install it from the package manager
[12:44] <saftle> mosibfu: accept send please. or maybe my firewall is blocking me from sending you log.
[12:45] <mosibfu> saftle: weird.. it shuld stop GDM befor changing anything
[12:45] <frague_> hi all
[12:45] <ricanelite> well i will do that install it from the package manager
[12:45] <raddy> Anybody know where can i download firefox 3 beta1 ubuntu package?
[12:45] <Pici> Lord_Illidan: file a bug on mozilla bugzilla
[12:45] <ricanelite> and see what happens
[12:45] <mosibfu> saftle: i have the DCC port blocked on mine, try mailing<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[12:45] <ricanelite> you could get it from the Package Manager
[12:45] <saftle> kk
[12:45] <Asperitas> hello, I'm trying to run ubuntu from the live cd but after the first menu (where I choose for "start or install ubuntu from cd") I get a statusbar saying "starting linux kernel", and after that I get a few more lines of text on the screen for just a second and then my screen turns black. How can I install ubuntu if this keeps occuring? The CD is allright though, I can run it at another computer perfectly fine.
[12:45] <Pici> raddy: ricanelite: iirc, FF3 in the repos is one of the alphas.
[12:45] <frague__> hi all
[12:46] <raddy> Pici: i am asking about the beta1 release
[12:46] <Pici> raddy: I know.
[12:46] <ricanelite> Firefox 3 beta is label in the package manager "Epiphany-Browser" which is Mozilla's Code name
[12:47] <ricanelite> yeah
[12:47] <Pici> ricanelite: Stop.
[12:47] <ricanelite> ???
[12:47] <Pici> ricanelite: Either you really don't know what you're talking about, or you're trolling. either way, stop.
[12:47] <IdleOne> ricanelite: giving out bad info is really not cool and not tolerated especially if it appears you are doing iton purpose
[12:48] <ricanelite> well they were asking me where to get Firefox and i told them it was on the Package Manager
[12:48] <Lord_Illidan> I know the difference between Epiphany and Firefox, too
[12:48] <raddy> ricanelite : yup, you are completely wrong
[12:48] <masin> hello all
[12:48] <jrib> raddy: you could grab the binary tarball and install to /opt if you wanted.  If they don't provide one, you would have to compile it.  Ubuntu is meant to be a stable system, so you won't see it in the Gutsy repositories
[12:48] <frague__> I've a stability problem : sometines my screen freezes, mouse continue working, but nothing works on screen, and no way to restart X
[12:49] <ricanelite> im looking at my Package Manager right now and Firefox-3.0 is listed there
[12:49] <ikonia> frague__: crtl+alt+backspace not restart
[12:49] <mizz> nautilus has trouble handling a folder with 10,000 mp3s, is there a better file manager i can use
[12:49] <jrib> ricanelite: what package?
[12:49] <IdleOne> Lord_Illidan: you can try asking for help in #ubuntu-mozillateam
[12:49] <ricanelite> firefox-3.0
[12:49] <Pici> ricanelite: check the version number on that. In addition epiphany-browser is NOT firefox
[12:49] <saftle> mosibfu: kk, just now sent.
[12:49] <frague__> ikonia : no, it doen't restart X
[12:49] <raddy> jrib: but, somebody will surely provide a package
[12:49] <saftle> brb, going to retry scripts.
[12:49] <ikonia> frague__: does that mean your keyboard has also hung ?
[12:49] <jrib> ricanelite: not beta1
[12:50] <frague__> ikonia : Yes
[12:50] <masin> does anyone know how evolution stores address books?
[12:50] <jrib> raddy: maybe, maybe not
[12:50] <ricanelite> oo okay then, Well they were asking for Firefox 3.0 so I was just telling them it was on the Package Manager
[12:50] <Asperitas> can someone help me with my installation? it won't work even before I run ubuntu on my live cd.
[12:50] <frague__> ikonia : when I push Caps-Lock, led doesn't blink
[12:51] <raddy> ricanelite : yup, but it is not called epiphany
[12:51] <Hadeshorn> hey i have a java executable
[12:51] <Hadeshorn> how do i run it from the terminal?
[12:51] <Lord_Illidan> The epiphany bit was the worst, I think..
[12:51] <Hadeshorn> coz i can double click it to get it to work
[12:52] <_BugeyeD> i'm getting this when attempting to delete a user --> userdel: user test2 is currently logged in
[12:52] <Hadeshorn> but i want to see what is making it crash
[12:52] <eldenz> what's the diff between 'synaptic package manager' and 'add/remove applications'?
[12:52] <_BugeyeD> this user is NOT logged in ... where is userdel looking for this information?
[12:52] <IdleOne> _BugeyeD: log the user out
[12:52] <frague__> ikonia: When I tip Ctrl+Alt+F1 : Nothing appends... keyboard is frozen
[12:52] <_BugeyeD> IdleOne: 07:52 < _BugeyeD> this user is NOT logged in ... where is userdel looking for this information?
[12:52] <jrib> _BugeyeD: does the 'w' command confirm?
[12:52] <IdleOne> _BugeyeD: als try sudo
[12:53] <anzan> eldenz, both are gui frontends for apt.
[12:53] <Hadeshorn> anyone?
[12:53] <Pici> eldenz: Add/remove only allows you to add or remove a specific set of packages, Synaptic gives you finer control. Other than that, they are the same.
[12:53] <Hadeshorn> trying to get aptana to work
[12:53] <eldenz> anzan, so which should i use? what do the ubuntu-icons mean for synaptic?
[12:53] <bmt2> hello to all
[12:53] <eldenz> ah ok, thx
[12:53] <anzan> Wikipedia has a great article on apt.
[12:53] <bmt2> how do i turn on/off my wireless connection ?
[12:53] <_BugeyeD> IdleOne: yes, w confirms. running userdel as root. i can't figure out where userdel is finding the false information.
[12:54] <IdleOne> jrib ^^
[12:54] <anzan> Use Synaptic. There's a key in the menu for the icons.
[12:54] <_BugeyeD> doh ... jrib: yes, w confirms :)
[12:54] <IdleOne> :)
[12:55] <Lunks> I just installed ubuntu on a rather old pc, it's too slow. How to replace it with xubuntu without reinstalling? sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop will do the trick?
[12:55] <anzan> Lunks, yes.
[12:55] <IdleOne> Lunks: yup that will
[12:55] <Pici> Lunks: yep. Then just choose xfce from the gdm when you go to login
[12:55] <anzan> Then uninstall ubuntu-desktop.
[12:55] <Lunks> great. =)
[12:55] <Lunks> I can uninstall ubuntu-desktop later, good to know
[12:55] <IdleOne> anzan: no need to uninstall it
[12:55] <_BugeyeD> Lunks: best yet, install edubuntu on a faster box, and use the slow one as a thin client
[12:55] <Lunks> thanks for the massive response. =D
[12:56] <saftle> mosibfu: same problem, :D.
[12:56] <Hadeshorn> anyone? running a java executable?
[12:56] <beasty> anyone ever got this error ?
[12:56] <Hadeshorn> how do i do it?
[12:56] <beasty> Nov 20 13:26:22 localhost pppd[3297]: Peer is not authorized to use remote address <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:56] <saftle> mosibfu: did you get my e-mail?
[12:56] <IdleOne> Lunks: uninstalling ubuntu-desktop wont do anything
[12:56] <Lunks> _BugeyeD: wish I had 2 machines. :P
[12:56] <IdleOne> it is a meta-package
[12:56] <Lunks> IdleOne: ok then
[12:56] <_BugeyeD> Lunks: hey, Christmas is coming up ... :)
[12:56] <jrib> _BugeyeD: paste the exact error given
[12:56] <IdleOne> a text file in essence
[12:56] <Pici> Hadeshorn: Its an executable? ./somefile
[12:56] <frague_>  I've a stability problem : sometines my screen freezes, mouse continue working, but nothing works on screen, and no way to restart X
[12:56] <_BugeyeD> jrib: i already did :)
[12:56] <bmt2> can anyone tell me how to toggle on/off my wireless conneciton ?
[12:57] <IdleOne> Lunks: install xubbbuntu-desktop and start to enjoy your new found OS :)
[12:57] <Hadeshorn> Pici i try to type it in but nothing
[12:57] <IdleOne> 3b?
[12:57] <IdleOne> lol
[12:57] <Pici> Hadeshorn: nothing? no errors?
[12:57] <Lunks> ok
[12:57] <Hadeshorn> Says command not found
[12:57] <Lunks> 240mb ram isn't enough for ubuntu, remember you all =P
[12:57] <IdleOne> xubuntu-desktop
[12:57] <Lunks> cu
[12:57] <Hadeshorn> but when I double click on it in gnome its fine
[12:57] <_BugeyeD> jrib: i guess i could strace it to see what all it's doing, but was hoping to find a quicker answer
[12:57] <saftle> bmt2: do you have a display icon with two monitors right to the left of your speaker symbol in the upper right hand corner of your screen?
[12:57] <Pici> Hadeshorn: you need to replace somefile with the name of the executable
[12:58] <Fakeraid0> hi.. i wanted to install a linux system and i did found a documentation where it was said "apt-get install ubuntu-base linux-386 ubuntu-desktop dmraid grub". i want to install a 64 bit linunx. do i have to change a package of that??? is there another package for the linux-386?
[12:58] <bmt2> saftle: i have the necessary icon...and it is telling me that my "wireless" is "ON"
[12:58] <ikonia> Fakeraid0 install from the cd
[12:58] <jrib> _BugeyeD: what is the result of: pgrep -u USERNAME
[12:58] <Hadeshorn> the file is Green in the terminal
[12:58] <Hadeshorn> does that mean anything
[12:58] <bmamone> yes
[12:58] <bmamone> Fakeraid0, get or burn a cd
[12:58] <bmamone> and install it
[12:58] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: its not possible like that, cause of the fakeraid
[12:59] <saftle> bmt2: well if you right click that icon, you can click "enable wireless" and that should turn it off. If were talking about the same icon.
[12:59] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: are you uing fakeraid driver that are not part of the kernel/initrd ?
[12:59] <Pici> Hadeshorn: so you're currently in the directory with the file?
[12:59] <Fakeraid0> it looks so.. i had to install dmraid on my livelinux
[12:59] <raddy> Firefox 3 beta1 official tarball working great in gutsy
[13:00] <saftle> bmt2: the check mark indicates it being on, and no checkmark indicating being off.
[13:00] <Hadeshorn> Pici yes
[13:00] <Hadeshorn> Pici in terminal and in Gnome
[13:00] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: or am i wrong?!
[13:00] <jrib> _BugeyeD: no need for strace, this is open source :) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45226/
[13:00] <Pici> Hadeshorn: Whats the filename?
[13:00] <ari_stress> halo2 :D
[13:00] <Hadeshorn> in Gnome i just have to double click it
[13:00] <Hadeshorn> Aptana
[13:00] <bmt2> saftle: when i right click all i see is : Properties - Help - About - Remove From Panel - Move - Lock to Panel
[13:00] <Pici> Hadeshorn: and ./Aptana does nothing?
[13:00] <Hadeshorn> ohhh
[13:01] <saftle> bmt2: sorry can't help you the, guess we have a different set-up
[13:01] <Hadeshorn> you need to do ./Aptana
[13:01] <Hadeshorn> i did that and now its running
[13:01] <saftle> bmt2: then*
[13:01] <Hadeshorn> Awesome thanks
[13:01] <bmt2> saftle: thanks for trying
[13:01] <saftle> bmt2: np :)
[13:01] <dilbert> #fh-wi06
[13:02] <ikonia> raddy: you've been running it for about 1 minute, how can you be certain it i ok
[13:02] <Hadeshorn> how do you list what version of java you have installed?
[13:02] <jrib> Hadeshorn: java -version
[13:02] <Teknomancer> i'm on Ubuntu baby!
[13:02] <Hadeshorn> cool
[13:02] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: dmraid i not in the ubuntu livecd ?
[13:02] <Fakeraid0> do i need the linux-386 for a 64bit linux, too?? or do i need a linux-64 or anything like that
[13:02] <Hadeshorn> Teknomancer! Welcome to freedom
[13:02] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:  fixed it .. it was not /boot or /root
[13:02] <Teknomancer> Jack_Sparrow:   it was jsut /initrd.img and /vmlinuz
[13:02] <jrib> Fakeraid0: either (32bit is recommended)
[13:03] <Teknomancer> the error was it was using hda5 instead of sda5
[13:03] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: dmraid is on the livecd
[13:03] <Teknomancer> weird
[13:03] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: that fact that you don't undertand hat your doing, I'd urge you to not do it
[13:03] <Teknomancer> because debian recognizes my disk as hda and not sda
[13:03] <bmamone> I LOVE UBUNTU :_)
[13:03] <bmamone> :-)
[13:03] <Teknomancer> but what i don't like is
[13:03] <ikonia> !offtopic >bmamone
[13:03] <Teknomancer> i must download 96 MB of updtes :(
[13:03] <Teknomancer> slow net
[13:03] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: i tried a lot yesterday to install it with the installer, but it did not work properly
[13:03] <Pici> !enter | Teknomancer :)
[13:03] <ubotu> Teknomancer :): Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[13:03] <ikonia> Teknomancer: then don't do it
[13:04] <Teknomancer> Pici: yes sorry
[13:04] <Teknomancer> ikonia:  i hate running anything but the latest, greatest version of each software on my system :) i'll do it but probably over the weekend.
[13:04] <Teknomancer> thx again for the help Jack_Sparrow, much appreciated.
[13:04] <ikonia> Teknomancer: then don't moan about it
[13:04] <xukun> hi all
[13:05] <xukun> is there some kind of small linux version basen on ubuntu?
[13:05] <psypher246> hey everyone. has anyone successfully gotten apt-mirror installed on gutsy, i keep getting "invalid config file specified at /usr/bin/apt-mirror" with a fresh iknstall and a vlid config file
[13:05] <jrib> Teknomancer: ubuntu isn't for those who want the latest and greatest at the cost of stability
[13:05] <tim__b> hi. i downloaded http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/urw/arial/ uarial font packe for tex-live and unpacked file to what i thought was the right target (/usr/share/texmf-texlive/). When i'm building my document i still get the error, that the fontfile couldn't be found.
[13:06] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: the problem is, that i have a sata fakeraid.. and i dont want to delete my windows, so i tryed the faq on the internet.. but it was for 32bit systems i think...   is there a linux-64 or anything??  i think thats the only problem i have this time
[13:06] <psypher246> xukun yes there is it's Jeos
[13:06] <psypher246> but it's more for virtual applicances
[13:06] <wam> I upgraded to gutsy and wanted to activate effects. They are there but I don't get window-borders. What could I do?
[13:07] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: 1.) why do you want 64bit ? 2.) you need to consider what to do for the long haul, and maintenance of the system
[13:07] <Daenyth|Laptop> I'm trying to troubleshoot a laptop with kubuntu on it. My father upgraded it the other week, and now his wireless card doesn't work right. I wasn't there for all of it, but I think it's possible that something went wrong with the update. Can anyone help me with this?
[13:07] <xukun> psypher246, thanks but that is not what I,m looking
[13:08] <psypher246> u mean someting more like damn small linux
[13:10] <Daenyth|Laptop> Can anyone help me with that? First, knetworkmanager couldn't enable the card, so I went to cli and did it manually; when I ran dhclient it stalled after getting a bunch of SIOC*: Permission denied errors. I'm running it as root
[13:10] <psypher246> has anyone successfully gotten apt-mirror installed on gutsy, i keep getting "invalid config file specified at /usr/bin/apt-mirror" with a fresh iknstall and a vlid config file
[13:10] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: i just downloaded the 64bit version and have no other cdr :D   but ok.. ill try to get ready with this 64 bit now, and if i wont be able to get ready, ill go out and buy a new cdr ... :)  cu
[13:11] <Fakeraid0> oh.. and are smilies allowed here?
[13:11] <brobostigon> yes
[13:11] <chew> what's that dockapp/kicker thingie they are playing with in all those videos?
[13:11] <Fakeraid0> k.. thx.. and cu all later
[13:12] <Pici> chew: Probably AWN (avant-window-navigator)
[13:12]  * N3bunel brb
[13:13] <timothe> I don't suppose there's a way to get Amarok to use gstreamer?
[13:13] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: use the 32bit
[13:13] <chew> let me check, you know what i'm talking about? the one when they drag the icons and stuff
[13:13] <Jack_Sparrow> psypher246: Yes, but not until after I found a tutorial online.  It was something about a second reference file.
[13:14] <Daenyth|Laptop> Anyone able to help with my question at all? It's somewhat important, my dad needs this laptop for work.. I'd hate to have to wipe it and install another distro just because of this
[13:14] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: what is the problem
[13:14] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: if your dad needs it for work you may want to consider comercial support
 I'm trying to troubleshoot a laptop with kubuntu on it. My father upgraded it the other week, and now his wireless card doesn't work right. I wasn't there for all of it, but I think it's possible that something went wrong with the update. Can anyone help me with this?
 Can anyone help me with that? First, knetworkmanager couldn't enable the card, so I went to cli and did it manually; when I ran dhclient it stalled after getting a bunch of SIOC*: Permission denied errors. I'm running it as root
[13:14] <Daenyth|Laptop> It used to run fine before the update
[13:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Daenyth|Laptop: Please dont repeat
[13:15] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: ikonia was looking for a recap.
[13:15] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: check if the laptop can see the wireless cards, check if the card is configured right (encyption etc)
[13:15] <ikonia> Pici: not 2 though ;)
[13:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Hi Pici
[13:15] <Daenyth|Laptop> Jack_Sparrow: he asked me...
[13:15] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: hi!
[13:15] <sparr_w> After upgrading to ubuntu gutsy, I cannot print from OpenOffice.org apps.  They pretend to print, but nothing comes out of the printer.  I can print from anything else, including PDFs exported from OOo, so that's my workaround for now.  Any ideas?
[13:15] <Daenyth|Laptop> ikonia: iwconfig can see the card, I can iwconfig essid & iwconfig key, but when I do dhclient it doesn't work
[13:16] <ArthurArchnix> Daenyth|Laptop: If you're running as root then that means you've enabled root on this laptop, is that right?
[13:16] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: define doesn't work
[13:16] <psypher246> Jack_Sparrow: thanks, i will keep looking, absolutely no info re this on the google or ubnutu forums or debian forums
[13:16] <Pici> Daenyth|Laptop: What kind of card is it?
[13:16] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: check encyption
[13:16] <Daenyth|Laptop> ArthurArchnix: well, "sudo su" for that session
[13:16] <Jack_Sparrow> psypher246: I found it in the man pages for apt I think
[13:16] <ikonia> Pici: you know its going to be some dodging broadcom
[13:16] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: don't recommennd that
[13:16] <Jack_Sparrow> I have 4 or 5 broadcom 43xx here and never had a problem
[13:17] <Daenyth|Laptop> Pici: it's an orinoco gold B card, by lucent. Hermes chipset iirc
[13:17] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: the fact that your doing "sudo su" suggests your "meddling" without understanding
[13:17] <subpar> I think I found the problem of mine... mostly the card being fried perhaps
[13:17] <Daenyth|Laptop> because I don't want to use 'sudo' with every command?
[13:17] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: you don't have to
[13:17] <Daenyth|Laptop> aha
[13:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Daenyth|Laptop: That is asking for trouble
[13:17] <ArthurArchnix> Daenyth|Laptop: I'm not saying it's related to your current problem, but running as root can cause unexpected permission errors. Just using sudo is not running as root.
[13:18] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: so have you checked the the encyption, what error do you get back, have you tried assigning an ip address manually ?
[13:18] <Daenyth|Laptop> I can't copy/paste the errors, as I get a few. I know the encryption is right because I tried both open and secure networks, with the correct key
[13:18] <Daenyth|Laptop> let me try to assign one manually
[13:19] <ArthurArchnix> Daenyth|Laptop: Since you said this started after the update, have you tried "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"  since then to see if there are any remaining installation issues from the last update?
[13:19] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: ummerie the error,
[13:19] <Daenyth|Laptop> ArthurArchnix: I would, if I could connect to the internet
[13:19] <ikonia> summerie the errors that sould read
[13:19] <ikonia> summerise

[13:20] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: thats interesting how are you running dhclient ?
[13:21] <brobostigon> i am sorry, i didnt understand, i think i may have missed something.
[13:21] <Daenyth|Laptop> ikonia: just 'dhclient eth1'

[13:21] <Daenyth|Laptop> yes
[13:21] <Daenyth|Laptop> sec
[13:21] <jute> i'm back with issues involving ubuntu 7.10, nvidia 5200 and a BenQ 1920x1200 widescreen panel.  atm i manage to get 1280x1024 absolute resolution with 1920x1200 virtual.  the virtual parts are garbled tho, and i want the 1920x1200 absolute.
[13:21] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: if you do an ifconfig eth1 $ip $mask what do you get
[13:21] <Daenyth|Laptop> first thing it outputs is "wifi0: unkown hardware address type 801" ... strange, I told it to use eth1
[13:21] <jute> a) nvidia-settings claims i'm not running the nvidia driver (i am)
[13:21] <Daenyth|Laptop> (dhclient)
[13:21] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: ahhhh now we are getting somewhere
[13:22] <Daenyth|Laptop> sec
[13:22] <jute> b) displayconfig-gtk is otherwise fine, but only sets the 1280x1024 absolute
[13:22] <jute> c) what else ... oh yeah, with analog cable i get 1920x1200 just fine, but it's ANALog ...
[13:22] <Slart> jute: are you really really sure you're using the binary nvidia driver?
[13:23] <jute> any help much appreciated
[13:23] <jute> Slart, 100%

[13:24] <ikonia> ArthurArchnix: the permission denied is because the device doesn't exist
[13:24] <aguitel_> santh_: like fuck
[13:24] <Daenyth|Laptop> ikonia: but 'iwconfig' says there is an eth1 device, and works up until that point
[13:24] <boair> hi
[13:24] <Pici> !language | aguitel_
[13:24] <ubotu> aguitel_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[13:24] <ikonia> aguitel_: that language is totally uncalled for

[13:25] <ArthurArchnix> ikonia: Ah.
[13:25] <Daenyth|Laptop> ikonia: yeah
[13:25] <Pici> !tab | pfwdtech
[13:25] <ubotu> pfwdtech: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[13:25] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: forget "used to"
[13:25] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: if you do "iwconfig eth1" what do you get
[13:25] <ArthurArchnix> ikonia: I was thinking maybe the update messed up user permissions.
[13:25] <boair> any girl wanna get anal sex contact me in private pls
[13:25] <pfwdtech> Hummm I've just started using chatzillia - not used to it
[13:25] <ikonia> ArthurArchnix: no the permission denied is trying to bring up or "create" a device that doesn't exist
[13:25] <ikonia> jute: thanks
[13:25] <Daenyth|Laptop> oh er... I took the card out to look at the model..  Obrigado.
[13:27] <jrib> \deop jrib
[13:27] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: thats because the device doesn't exist
[13:27] <ikonia> ArthurArchnix: I'm trying to get that
[13:27] <xipietotec> boair, try a completely different server.
[13:27] <Daenyth|Laptop> ikonia: yeah, I uh.. forgot that I removed the card to check the model
[13:27] <Daenyth|Laptop> I put it back in :P

[13:28] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: ok, so ifconfig eth1 now works ?
[13:28] <kappo011> yes
[13:28] <Daenyth|Laptop> setting the ip with ifconfig (ifconfig eth1 <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS>) gets me "SIOCFIADDR: Invalid argument"
[13:28] <MsK`> hi

[13:28] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: what does it say ?
[13:29] <Daenyth|Laptop> ok, when I just did 'ifconfig eth $ip", it worked
[13:29] <Daenyth|Laptop> normal ifconfig output
[13:29] <Daenyth|Laptop> what are you looking for in it
[13:29] <jrib> kappo011: maybe ubuntu-sk.org helps you
[13:29] <NET||abuse> how do i get the subnet of my connection?
[13:29] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: ok, so no if you do dhclient - does it work
[13:29] <ikonia> NET||abuse: ask your network administrator

[13:31] <Daenyth|Laptop> ikonia: Do you have any idea what that changed so that it worked?
[13:31] <sacul> Hi

[13:31] <pawan> hi
[13:31] <pawan> how to install google earth
[13:31] <Daenyth|Laptop> alright. Well, I'll write a shell script / leave a note on the steps to get it working
[13:31] <Jack_Sparrow> administrator__:   maybe burn a copy of or use /var/cache/apt/archives
[13:31] <ikonia> pawan: look in the ubuntu repositories
[13:31] <administrator__> thanks Jack will try dat
[13:31] <Daenyth|Laptop> my dad's been meaning to learn more CLI anyway :P
[13:31] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: there shouldn't be a need for a shell script, it should work now
[13:32] <Daenyth|Laptop> oh alright
[13:32] <Jack_Sparrow> administrator__: Sorry..  still not fully awake
[13:32] <pawan> not there
[13:32] <santh_> can i have to install any driver software to connect the portable hard disc
[13:32] <santh_> can i have to install any driver software to connect the portable hard disc
[13:32] <Daenyth|Laptop> ikonia: we installed from a kubuntu disk, but my dad wants to try the gnome interface; that's apt-get install gnome-desktop, correct?
[13:32] <ikonia> Daenyth|Laptop: it i
[13:33] <ikonia> is
[13:33] <IdleOne> Daenyth|Laptop: ubuntu-desktop
[13:33] <Daenyth|Laptop> aha
[13:33] <pawan> any command
[13:33] <ikonia> pawan: any command ?
[13:33] <administrator__> i think that should work ( looking at /var/cache/apt/archives rit now )
[13:33] <pawan> for google earth
[13:33] <Daenyth|Laptop> and just as a point of curiosity, would that change the 'kubuntu' splash logo during boot?
[13:33] <ikonia> pawan: enable all the repo's then search synaptic
[13:33] <jw5801> yes daenyth is would
[13:33] <administrator__> am seeing all the updates
[13:33] <Daenyth|Laptop> neat
[13:33] <Daenyth|Laptop> Well, thanks for the help :)
[13:34] <jw5801> ubuntu-desktop will override the KDE splash and login
[13:34] <jw5801> ubuntu-core won't though I think
[13:34] <pfwdtech> Thats better
[13:34] <jw5801> oh he's gone
[13:34] <padski> rdesktop seems to have some typo or graphics bug.  right now I am looking at a "Sfarf" button :-)
[13:34] <jw5801> hehe
[13:34] <jrib> santh_: no, just plug it in
[13:34] <pfwdtech> Im now using IrcII
[13:34] <jw5801> gotta love that Sfarf button
[13:35] <Jack_Sparrow> pawan: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45230/
[13:35] <thor> padski: are you sure the screen resolution is correct? I always run rdp and vnc at a size smaller than my screen
[13:35] <Caleb> wow
[13:36] <IdleOne> Caleb: yeah 1184 is correct
[13:36] <Caleb> indeed
[13:36] <IdleOne> kinda slow today though
[13:36] <Caleb> and i thought the gentoo channel used to be bad
[13:36] <psypher246> Jack_Sparrow: apt man page is very empty, apt-mirror page only refers to the mirrir.list file i have already worked on
[13:36] <administrator__> hey Jack_Sparrow ... i have copiet the directory to a USB drive ...how can i add the directory to my sources.list?
[13:36] <jute> updated my paste with relevant info: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45232/
[13:37] <Jack_Sparrow> administrator__: Just paste it to your other setup and it will look there first
[13:37] <padski> thor: likewise, it is in a window.
[13:37] <IdleOne> administrator__: copy from usb to the machine you want it on
[13:38] <Slart> jute: do you have your xorg.conf pastebinned too?
[13:38] <Jack_Sparrow> psypher246: Sorry but I dont have the link handy for setting up your own mirror.  If I run across it while you are here I will let you know
[13:38] <IdleOne> administrator__: wait that is absolutely rediculous. sorry
[13:38] <jute> i'll put it there, same paste page ok?
[13:38] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: u remember? i asked i should install the linux-386 file... now i know that its a kernel.. and i got the 64bit kernel for that.. lets hope that ill be able to install it correct..     to this time, the whole linux installation looks very logical
[13:38] <jute> Slart ^----
[13:38] <Slart> jute: ok
[13:38] <jute> k
[13:39] <administrator__> you mean copy to /var/cache/apt/archives ???
[13:39] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[13:39] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: use the 32bit verion
[13:39] <administrator__> ok
[13:39] <ikonia> version
[13:39] <IdleOne> Jack_Sparrow: that will only copy the .debs but wont install them
[13:39] <jute> Slart http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45237/     <-- xorg.conf in the end
[13:39] <mikko777> hello
[13:39] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: i need the hard way.. and.. it SHOULD work also.. am i right? :D
[13:39] <Jack_Sparrow> agreed, but when he does his updates it will
[13:39] <_BugeyeD> jrib: utmp was the culprit; mv utmp/userdel/mv utmp worked. thanks for showing me the obvious place to look (that i missed, of course)!
[13:39] <Slart> jute: looking
[13:40] <IdleOne> Jack_Sparrow: yup
[13:40] <mcspiff> hello, i was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a grub menu.lst that has a section for booting vista?
[13:40] <Jack_Sparrow> administrator__: I do that all the time.  I download once, burn to a cd and copy to the other machines
[13:40] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: you will have serious problems with grub
[13:40] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: why??
[13:40] <administrator__> its easier that way
[13:40] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[13:40] <boontoo> hello i cant play an AVI file, i have all the codecs installed correctly can anyone offer advice, it just says things like "the file can  not be opened " deitdeda
[13:40] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: because it won't see your disk to boot
[13:40] <IdleOne> Jack_Sparrow: so after copying just run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade?
[13:41] <administrator__> especially whent you have a slow connection
[13:41] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: as I keep telling you
[13:41] <psypher246> Jack_Sparrow:  by following howtoforge's often incorrect howto's i was screwed. all i had to do instead of apt-mirror -c is sudo apt-mirror /etc/apt/mirror.list
[13:41] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: but you keep telling me you have to do the hard way
[13:41] <Slart> jute: just a quick thing to try.. remove the lines that specify horizsync and Vertrefresh.. I think it can detect those by itself.. or just comment them if you want to feel extra safe =)
[13:41] <brobostigon> try playing the avi with vlc, that might work
[13:41] <Jack_Sparrow> IdleOne: the update will look in that folder before going online
[13:42] <jute> Slart, will try.
[13:42] <Jack_Sparrow> IdleOne: If it is there it will use it
[13:42] <pfwdtech> why is it that when i press table it foes to /msg NickServ ?
[13:42] <padski> konqueror stopped responding earlier on :-(
[13:42] <ArthurArchnix> mcspiff: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45240/  <Be warned, that depending on your disks and computer setup this may not work for you.
[13:42] <IdleOne> Jack_Sparrow: good to know .
[13:42] <Pici> pfwdtech: you need to start typing the name of the person you want to talk to.
[13:42] <Jack_Sparrow> psypher246: glad you got it
[13:42] <jute> Slart, no difference from doing that
[13:43] <psypher246> yeah now for the deluge
[13:43] <pfwdtech> yep thats what im doing
[13:43] <Fakeraid0> ikonia: ill tell u if it works.. or not
[13:43] <Slart> jute: ok.. I looked at the benq site and it says those numbers are "Horizontal Frequency  	31-94 (KHz)
[13:43] <Slart> Vertical Frequency 	50 - 85 (Hz)"
[13:43] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: it on't
[13:43] <Slart> jute: try inputting those instead
[13:43] <jute> thanks i'll try
[13:43] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: it won't
[13:44] <Slart> jute: I think those numbers that are there are a bit too safe for your, I say this with quite a lot of envy, very large monitor =)
[13:44] <pfwdtech> it changes to .msg NickServ regardless of what person i start putting in
[13:44] <ikonia> Fakeraid0: why do you ask what to do and how to do it, to then ignore it
[13:44] <jw5801> Jack_Sparrow: I tried doing that once, needed to reinstall so I copied the entire /var/cache/apt/ directory to an external drive then put it back after the install. Still ended up downloading everything again though
[13:44] <jute> Slart yeah this is an OK panel though el-cheapo in parts of technology, i hear.  but i like looking at it :D
[13:45] <jw5801> Jack_Sparrow: should I have just copied the .debs and put them in the archive subdir?
[13:45] <Jack_Sparrow> jw5801: That is what I do.. just the debs
[13:45] <Jack_Sparrow> jw5801: I do the whole folder, minus partial and lock.. :)
[13:45] <boontoo> hello i cant play an AVI file, i have all the codecs installed correctly can anyone offer advice, it just says things like "the file can  not be opened " deitdeda
[13:46] <mcspiff> ArthurArchnix: thanks, i can modify it to suite my needs
[13:46] <ikonia> boontoo: report the exact problem not ditdeda
[13:46] <snkmad> oh new nvidia driver out yesterday, wonder how it goes along with ubuntu
[13:46] <jute> Slart still no difference
[13:46] <Jack_Sparrow> boontoo: how did you install the codecs
[13:46] <Slart> same thing in the xorg.log?
[13:46] <jute> i'm simply ctrl-alt-backspacing to restart X, but that should be enough?
[13:46] <boontoo> ikonia: i have an avi file, i have all the mplayer, vlc programs NOTHING works, in vlc it plays the movie for 3 seconds without sound, without video then stops
[13:47] <jute> yeah, same thing in the log
[13:47] <Slart> jute: hmm.. ok.. I'll be back again.. have to do some googling
[13:47] <boontoo> i installed the codecs via apt get im not sure what i have installed all i know is ive spent 2 hrs googling and installing every codec
[13:47] <jute> ok, and i'll pick up the BenQ manual
[13:47] <ikonia> boontoo: what was the error you reported earlier
[13:47] <boontoo> ikonia ill open it again and print the error
[13:47] <jw5801> Jack_Sparrow: cool, I'll remember for when I'm setting up my mates laptop in a couple of weeks, cheers!
[13:47] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[13:48] <Jack_Sparrow> jw5801: you can burn to a cd and add cd as a local repo
[13:48] <boontoo> ikonia: Failed top open file:: 2006.wcup.avi
[13:48] <ikonia> boontoo and thats the only line ?
[13:49] <boontoo> ikonia: correct
[13:49] <Jack_Sparrow> boontoo: Have you tried other avi files?
[13:49] <milestone> is there a software available to convert a given visio 2003 document to pdf?
[13:49] <ikonia> boontoo: run "file" against it
[13:49] <boontoo> Jack_Sparrow: yes and they have worked
[13:49] <snkmad> Improved usability of NVIDIA-settings at lower resolutions like 1024x768 and 800x600. thats good when you 1st install the system
[13:49] <Jack_Sparrow> so it is just that one avi not all avi?
[13:49] <boontoo> ikonia: .avi: data
[13:49] <ikonia> boontoo: that doesn't look like a video file
[13:49] <Jack_Sparrow> agreed
[13:49] <boontoo> ikonia: oh gay
[13:50] <boontoo> =(
[13:50] <boontoo> yhbt on bit torrent once again
[13:50] <boontoo> how can i scrape it for data
[13:50] <ikonia> you can't

[13:50] <ikonia> boontoo: this is not an ubuntu problem
[13:50] <boontoo> ikonia: where should i get help to resolve this
[13:51] <ikonia> boontoo: don't know
[13:51] <boontoo> ok
[13:51] <jw5801> milestone: don't even know of  a tool one can use to open a visio doc, but there's things like cutepdf for windows. acts as it's own printer so anything can be printed to pdf
[13:51] <milestone> jw5801: thx
[13:51] <milestone> but i have no windows

[13:56] <cousin_luigi> hello
[13:56] <rubydiamond> jatt, is -print is compulsory?
[13:56] <cousin_luigi> updater stopped working
[13:56] <cousin_luigi> apt-get works though
[13:56] <jatt> rubydiamond: no
[13:57] <rubydiamond> jatt, it did not print anything
[13:57] <jatt> rubydiamond: -print (or -print0) is default
[13:57] <wasalwaysbuddy> rubydiamond: if your files may contain whitespace, you will want to add a -print0 to find and a -0 to xargs.
[13:57] <Tomcat_> keitherz: http://andrew.triumf.ca/iso8859-1-compose.html
[13:57] <rubydiamond> Tomcat_,  what is xargs
[13:58] <Tomcat_> rubydiamond: xargs is a command that takes lines from standard input and puts them on the command line.
[13:58] <jatt> rubydiamond: try
[13:58] <jatt> find . -name \*.swp -print

[13:58] <jute> Slart i updated the paste with a new observation http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45241/
[13:58] <jw5801> cousin_luigi: what do you mean, the updater stopped working? If "sudo apt-get update" returns success then it should be good
[13:58] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: the gui one...
[13:58] <Tomcat_> rubydiamond: Like, you have a file with file names to delete: "cat myfile | xargs rm"
[13:58] <Slart> jute: ok.. btw.. you running 32bit or 64bit?
[13:58] <jute> 32bit
[13:58] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: apt-get upgrade works perfectly

[14:01] <jw5801> cousin_luigi: does running "sudo apt-get upgrade" update the packages? Or does it tell you that one or more cannot be verified and ask if you want to proceed?
[14:01] <Slart> jute: read-edid is a small program that reads valid display modes from the monitor
[14:01] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: it does
[14:01] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: it works perfectly from the console
[14:02] <Slart> jute: I can't run it here since it's not available for 64-bit systems
[14:02] <padski> how do I stop the lcd going out of sync during boot ?
[14:02] <jute> Slart yes it installed
[14:02] <Slart> jute: try running it.. you might need sudo.. not sure

[14:02] <Jack_Sparrow> ganjistus: Please stop
[14:03] <bauer_> dono but it worked before i upgraded to Gutsy Gibbon
[14:03] <jute> Slart it ends with "Your EDID is probably invalid.
[14:04] <Jack_Sparrow> bauer_: run gparted and tell us if it can see the partitions on the stick
[14:04] <jw5801> cousin_luigi: that's very strange... since they all use apt-get as a backend. Which gui are we using? synaptic?
[14:04] <jute> before anything (seemingly useful)
[14:04] <jute> i'm in the 1600x1200X1900x1200 weirdo mode now though
[14:04] <jute> i'll try some more in 'normal' modes
[14:04] <MenZa> You're in 4d, jute? Major scientific breakthrough happening there.
[14:04] <Slart> jute: hmm.. perhaps that's why your monitor isn't detected properly by the dpkg-reconfigure thingy...
[14:04] <jute> could be
[14:04] <sorteal> lol
[14:05] <Slart> MenZa: gnome does stuff our feeble minds can hardly comprehend =)
[14:05] <jute> MenZa explanations here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45241/ :D

[14:05] <bauer_> Jack_Sparrow: I have two usbstick a 1 G abd 4 G. I can't see either in gparted
[14:06] <rubydiamond> What is the good and productive MySQL GUI client for ubuntu linux??????
[14:06] <jute> Slart i'm positive however that the update-part in the paste really does set 1900x1200 absolute, and X just doesn't realize it has that much space (it's more like in 1600x800, judging by eye)
[14:06] <Jack_Sparrow> bauer_: No idea..  someone here may know.. I assume they work in windows?
[14:06] <padski> one of the strange symptoms of this rdesktop problem is that windows of funny text on the remote systems actually scroll.  the funny text moves up and down as expected but otherwise stays the same (funny).
[14:07] <jw5801> cousin_luigi: it's still telling you you need to update after updating with apt-get?
[14:07] <Slart> jute: yes.. that's the biggest valid resolution according to the xorg log
[14:07] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: synaptic doesn't work either
[14:07] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: no, it doesn't
[14:07] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: I mean synaptic doesn't update
[14:07] <ganjistus> a Quantum Leap happened to me!

[14:07] <Balancin> i cant install anything (aptitude, apt-get) because error: dpkg: error processing phpgroupware (--remove): subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 10
[14:08] <boontoo> well my ubuntu just crapped out, whats the log file to look for errors ?
[14:08] <jute> Slart no difference for get-edid in 'valid' modes,
[14:08] <Balancin> how to solve that?
[14:08] <bauer_> Jack_Sparrow: they worked on feisty and they work on suse 9.3
[14:08] <Jack_Sparrow> bauer_: But do they work NOW on those systems
[14:09] <jw5801> cousin_luigi: ah, update as opposed to upgrade? dang similar terminology! Does it tell you which repository it's struggling to verify? or just keep cycling around and around?
[14:09] <bauer_> Jack_Sparrow: gparted coredump when i try to update devicelist ?-(.   Yes they work now on whose systems :-(
[14:09] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: sorry, I mean it doesn't mark packages to be upgraded
[14:09] <padski> Jack_Sparrow, it is fine once X starts.  this is during the early boot.
[14:09] <jw5801> boontoo: there are several, /var/log/*
[14:09] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: no problems at all in accessing repositories
[14:10] <rubydiamond> What is the good and productive MySQL GUI client for ubuntu linux??????
[14:10] <Jack_Sparrow> padski: ..ok..  so it is just that momentary sync loss that you want to get rid of?
[14:10] <Pici> rubydiamond: mysql-query-browser? mysql-admin?
[14:11] <Slart> jute: what was the error message from read-edid?
[14:11] <boontoo> jw5801: which one am i looking for though
[14:11] <jaym> is there anyway to share a daap server over the net?
[14:11] <padski> Jack_Sparrow, it goes out of range
[14:11] <jw5801> cousin_luigi: ok, so it's telling you you need to upgrade a package then failing to do it? My immediate suggestion would be to upgrade via apt-get if that's working "sudo apt-get upgrade" and see if that tells you if it has any that aren't being upgraded or any that aren't verified
[14:11] <jute> Slart "Your EDID is probably invalid.
[14:11] <Jack_Sparrow> padski: but then comes back?
[14:11] <padski> Jack_Sparrow, yup
[14:11] <jute> with some ��
[14:12] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: apt-get upgrade works flawlessly
[14:12] <ganjistus> the Ganjitude alternates
[14:12] <Jack_Sparrow> padski: Post your xorg to the pastebin .. it may just need a lower default res
[14:12] <jw5801> boontoo: depends what happened! syslog is the most general
[14:12] <jute> Slart i can put it all in the paste
[14:12] <cousin_luigi> jw5801: but I'd Ãliketo be able to do it from updae-notifier
[14:12] <rubydiamond> Pici, dont u know any other good?
[14:12] <gordonjcp> jaym: is DAAP routable?

[14:13] <boontoo> jw5801: what do you think about this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45243/ ?
[14:13] <gordonjcp> jaym: ah, it looks like daap *isn't* routable
[14:13] <gordonjcp> jaym: have a look at gnump3d
[14:14] <Thecks> Anybody know why I can't get Nautillius to connect to WebDav folders?

[14:15] <jaym> gordonjcp: does that work as a daap server as well?
[14:15] <jute> Slart new paste, it was complaining about me spamming the pastebin (:?) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45245/
[14:15] <jw5801> cousin_luigi: ah, so they're not still telling you that things need upgrading in spite of apt-get working? I'm not sure what the issue is then...
[14:16] <gordonjcp> jaym: no
[14:16] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: fyi. using the > doesnt hilight the ops, nor does it set off an alert in #u-ops.
[14:16] <Jakobsen> How do I use the original Ubuntu window decorations with Compiz?
[14:16] <jw5801> boontoo: so you can't log in?
[14:16] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: I just happen to have the trigger itself on hilight.
[14:16] <DM|> gordonjcp i dont want to use samba, does gnump use that ? or what
[14:16] <gordonjcp> jaym: unless you've got end-to-end multicast routing, you can't send daap over the internet ;-)
[14:16] <joeltron> greetings all.
[14:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Pici: then I should bang | it
[14:16] <jute> i see now that there was more to it ...
[14:16] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: next time, yes :)
[14:16] <jaym> ah no good then. more important for me to share within my network
[14:16] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[14:16] <boontoo> jw5801: hmm no, i was intalling something and then ubuntu acted if i had just CTRL+ALT+Backspaced
[14:16] <joeltron> any good raid-5 channels anyone could recommend?
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Pici: I sent you a quick line when I saw where it was heading but you were out for coffee?
[14:17] <ikonia> joeltron: 3are or LI
[14:17] <ikonia> joeltron: 3ware or LSI
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> padski: are you still using feisty?
[14:17] <jw5801> boontoo: weird... well run "ls -la ~ | grep .X" and make sure .Xauthority is owned by root, because that's what syslog is complaining about
[14:18] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: I was actually checking our bantracker to see if there had been kicks before and if this needed a ban.
[14:18] <joeltron> ikonia: thank you.
[14:18] <DM|> gordonjcp can i use gnump without having a web server?my "server" is a ubuntu desktop box i use for VMs and remote management

[14:19] <Jack_Sparrow> padski: It might have something to do with your sis video card..  sorry I cant be of more help
[14:19] <boontoo> jw5801: well it worked :\
[14:19] <Thecks> Anybody know why I can't get Nautillius to connect to WebDav folders?
[14:20] <wasalwaysbuddy> Thecks: Try Places -> Connect To Server -> WebDAV
[14:20] <Thecks> I've done that, it always says Access denied
[14:20] <Thecks> But I can access it from KDE / WinXP no problems
[14:21]  * tomasz154_ zz
[14:21] <_jason> Thecks: did you choose secure webdav?
[14:21] <jw5801> boontoo: yeah, no idea, everything appears to be ok now.
[14:21] <padski> Jack_Sparrow, no worries :-)
[14:22] <boontoo> jw5801: it also happens when i exit an open gl game
[14:22] <Bu-D> .dal.net
[14:22] <Thecks> _jason: I've tried both
[14:22] <jw5801> boontoo: you're running compiz, yeah? it crashes X every time I try and put a game fullscreen or change it's resolution
[14:23] <boontoo> correct im using compiz
[14:24] <jw5801> boontoo: I'll put that down to it being alpha. Try running the game under metacity. Run "metacity --replace" then the game. I have a shell script set up on a hotkey to switch between the two for when I want to play zsnes or anything similar
[14:24] <jute> (Slart) here's another update on my issue: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45246/
[14:24] <Teknomancer> i've just enabled "Normal Effects" under Preferences-> Appearance..   is there a way i can just disable the workspace switching animation??
[14:25] <Mark761966> I have virtual box :)
[14:26] <Noodels> Hey, can someone help me test my program?
[14:26] <seeitcoming> Teknomancer: gconf-editor then chance apps/compiz
[14:26] <jw5801> Teknomancer: "sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager" then fiddle with the settings under Preferences > Advanced Desktop Effects Settings
[14:26] <seeitcoming> *change
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Noodels: what is the program and what format is it?
[14:26] <Mark761966> What program is that, Noodels?
[14:26] <boontoo> jw5801: you dont have internal on board crapfest like i do i take it switching between two windows managers is a daunting task, its taken me weeks to hack pretty much every driver to get it to work on ubuntu now its in that fragle peroid of limbo where it can either pull threw or snap its back
[14:26] <JimGrey> Mark761966, i do also, working well
[14:27] <Teknomancer> thanks seeitcoming and jw5801 :)
[14:27] <Mark761966> Okay. Now what do I do with it Jim?
[14:27] <Noodels> It's a python program, I'm learning to use sockets and I just went through a guide on opening up ports on my router.
[14:27] <Mark761966> Okay.  That's me out then
[14:27] <Noodels> All I need to do is find someone who's not in my lan to help me test it.
[14:28] <JimGrey> Mark761966, is it stalled?
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Noodels: The python user room would be a better place to get that tested
[14:28] <JimGrey> installed
[14:28] <Mark761966> No, I just don't have anything to use it on, Jim
[14:28] <Noodels> J.Sparrow : I can't get into the python user room for some reason... :'(
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Noodels: If it is a short script, post it and I will look it over
[14:28] <Mark761966> I was hoping for a recommendation
[14:29] <Mark761966> Man, my smileys rock :D
[14:29] <Noodels> 14 lines in total.
[14:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Noodels: Did they ban you for some reason?
[14:29] <JimGrey> Mark761966, well, u can d/l a different linux distro, or an old version of windoze, etc
[14:29] <Noodels> Nope, never went there.
[14:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Noodels: Stick it in the pastebin and post a link here
[14:29] <Mark761966> Can I download and run the iso files, Jim?
[14:29] <Noodels> I connect up to irc.freenode.net and try /join #python but it doesn't work.
[14:29] <jw5801> boontoo: I just have a dodgy ATi onboard. Runs alright with fglrx though. Switching between the two is pretty easy though, just running "metacity --replace" to start metacity and "compiz --replace" to start compiz. I just wrote a shell script so I could check which was running and switch to the other via one key combination.
[14:30] <Noodels> I'll get a link where it is now.
[14:30] <JimGrey> Mark761966, yes, in settings change the cdrom
[14:30] <Pici> Noodels: you're on freenode right now, fyi.
[14:30] <Mark761966> Okay
[14:30] <LjL-Temp> Noodels, you *are* on freenode already. type /join #python, unless you're banned it *will* work.
[14:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Noodels: I just got into the python room with no problems
[14:30] <Mark761966> If I appear to be crying it's because I'm trying out some smiley commands *cry*

[14:53] <Whitor> Hi, I can't get to a local server on my intranet... I can ping its ip, but when I try to ping its name it says Ping: unknown host.   Yet... and here is the important part, nslookup servername revelals the correct name resolution.... any ideas?
[14:53] <ehird1> anyone know about grub error 18?
[14:53] <jute> yeah.  i'll switch back to VGA analog now.  thank you SO MUCH for all your help, we got pretty far and i'm sure *something* will come up in one point or other :)
[14:53] <jute> i'll try to figure out why i can't run nvidia-settings properly etc
[14:53] <Teknomancer> wow, that pidgin notification thing has been fixed!! great. Now clicking takes me to the correct workspace than just plopping the window on the current one. i'm liking ubuntu quite a bit :)
[14:53] <Slart> ehird1: yes.. it's one of the most asked questions here.. sadly I can't remember any good answers to it..
[14:54] <jmazaredo2> the apt-get error looks like something like this failed to fetch http://blahblhablha hash sum mismatch
[14:54] <Jack_Sparrow> ehird1: http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/GRUB#Error_18
[14:54] <ehird1> Slart: well if ubuntu didn't crash about 3 times (literally) in a row for no reason this wouldn't have happened :P
[14:54] <Slart> jute: you're welcome.. and good luck in getting it all to work
[14:54] <ehird1> Jack_Sparrow: yes except the hard drive is fine, i've had this problem before i just can't remember the solution
[14:54] <Slart> ehird1: hehe.. I think error 18 might be about grub not finding files or partitions it's supposed to boot from
[14:55] <ehird1> Slart: no, the files are fine and there
[14:55] <digit> anyone use gOS?
[14:55] <Jack_Sparrow> ehird1: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS     get it under 1024
[14:55] <digit> it's pseudo friendly!
[14:55] <Slart> ehird1: then perhaps the disks have switched places for some reason? new partition somewhere?
[14:56] <ehird1> Jack_Sparrow: >the harddrive is fine. it was booting 20 minutes ago. i have had this problem before and it was not the hard drive. please read my messages before replying.<
[14:56] <terryd> Whiter: What happens if you put that entry in your /etc/hosts file?
[14:56] <ehird1> Slart: no! it just crashed - 3 times - and then this happened

[14:56] <ehird1> Yes I did.
[14:56] <Jack_Sparrow> yea right

[14:57] <buzztu> what do i do with a .bin file?
[14:57] <ehird1> incidentally, none of the causes or solutions there apply.
[14:57] <ehird1> which is what i just said.
[14:57] <jmazaredo2> Err http://security.ubuntu.com gutsy-security Release
[14:57] <Slart> ehird1: and all your drives are still working?
[14:58] <ehird1> Slart: of course. i'm talking to you from windows.
[14:58] <ehird1> and the other drive is /fine/
[14:58] <jmazaredo2> thats the error when using apt-get update
[14:58] <ehird1> i can 100% assure you that it's not a problem with the drive having lost files, or not being in a certain segment
[14:58] <Slart> ehird1: well.. then it's the "pizza way".. buy your local linux-guru a pizza and say he can have it after he fixes your computer ;)

[15:00] <bazhang> Jack_Sparrow: heh--just trying to clarify :}
[15:00] <Slart> ehird1: if I were you I'd boot from a live cd and do the steps described in setting up grub.. ie set boot drive, grub setup etc etc.. it's a little bit like the old "reboot, reinstall"-solution but it's all I've got to offer

[15:05] <bazhang> compiz --replace
[15:05] <DaveG|> compiz --replace chaplan i think

[15:10] <LoveNPeace> Hmm, not in feisty ?
[15:10] <Jack_Sparrow> destinyking: wubi is a bad idea
[15:10] <ikonia> destinyking: wubi is not supported
[15:10] <tim> destinyking:  I don't thinnk they have wubi for 7.10 yet ?
[15:10] <slytherin> ikonia: 400 or 4000. I read somewhere that 5 GB disk space is recommended.
[15:11] <LoveNPeace> Where can I read about upgrading from feisty to gutsy ?
[15:11] <destinyking> whenever i run this wubi software
[15:11] <ikonia> slytherin: 5gb is recommended to have free space, I recall the install being only approx 400 meg
[15:11] <LoveNPeace> without full reinstall ?
[15:11] <ikonia> destinyking: Wubi is NOT surpported

[15:12] <bazhang> buzztu: from the repos?
[15:12] <slytherin> ubotu: tell LoveNPeace about upgrade
[15:12] <Jack_Sparrow> tim: You might have better luck asking how to get the current version working
[15:12] <Slart> tim: download the deb or tar from winehq.com
[15:12] <tim> !wubi
[15:12] <ehird1> except from the sounds of it much less stable

[15:13] <jmazaredo2> anyone here using 7.10 having problems in apt-get or aptitude?

[15:13] <bastid_raZor> the latest tzdata update seems to fail..
[15:13] <ikonia> pbn: disable SCSI ?
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> destinyking: You do not need wubi to install from cd rom
[15:14] <slytherin> jmazaredo2: paste errors somewhere
[15:14] <pbn> ikonia: yeah, disable SCSI support in the kernel
[15:14] <jmazaredo2> Err http://security.ubuntu.com gutsy-security Release
[15:14] <Slart> tim: you then uninstall your current version of wine "sudo apt-get remove wine" or something.. depending on how you installed it..  and then install the deb you've download by doubleclicking it
[15:14] <ikonia> pbn: well grub doesn't use the kernel, so be clear about what you want, scsi support in grub or the kernel
[15:14] <jmazaredo2> W: GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com gutsy-security Release:

[15:15] <destinyking> i got a ubuntu cd
[15:15] <ikonia> destinyking: for the last time, Wubi is NOT supported here
[15:15] <pbn> lemme reformulate: how can I add parameters in the grub stanza to tell the kernel to completely disable SCSI ?
[15:15] <jmazaredo2> i updated gpg change mirrors
[15:15] <[Ramy]> ikonia  sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/flash -rw , i tried this and it does not work  it still read only :(
[15:15] <jmazaredo2> still problem
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> destinyking: What part of NOT SUPPORTED are you having a problem with.
[15:15] <slytherin> destinyking: Can you tell us why do you need to install Ubuntu inside Windows?
[15:15] <Whitor> Hi, I can't get to a local server on my intranet... I can ping its ip, but when I try to ping its name it says Ping: unknown host.   Yet... and here is the important part, nslookup servername revelals the correct name resolution.... any ideas?
[15:15] <ikonia> [Ramy]: the -rw comes before the devices
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> destinyking: Put in the cd and power up.. follow the prompts
[15:15] <destinyking> bcoz i dont want to mess my hdd
[15:16] <yellabs> use vmware or virtualbox to install ubuntu inside windows, just a thought
[15:16] <destinyking> creating two extra and separate partitions
[15:16] <bastid_raZor> destinyking, having windows is a mess enough
[15:16] <Jack_Sparrow> destinyking: You run MORE of a risk using wubi
[15:16] <ikonia> Whitor: what is nswitch.conf set to
[15:16] <Jack_Sparrow> destinyking: Dual boot works fine
[15:16] <ikonia> destinyking: if you persist to ask about WUIB
[15:16] <Whitor> ikonia: let me check
[15:16] <bazhang> destinyking: stay away from wubi; the ubuntu live cd will do fine--you can try before you decide :}
[15:17] <slytherin> destinyking: Then use live CD directly. Or separate hard disk.
[15:17] <Whitor> ikonia: locate nswitch.conf doesn't show the file
[15:17] <Slart> Whitor: I don't know if ping and nslookup use different ways of doing the name resolution.. you could try running nslookup server dns-server-ip or whatever the syntax is to specify the dns server you want to use
[15:17] <slytherin> jmazaredo2: I am not getting any problem. Can you paste the complete error somewhere?
[15:17] <bazhang> !paste

[15:18] <destinyking> i dont have much knowledge about what dual booting is
[15:18] <ikonia> Whitor: /etc/nswitch.conf
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> destinyking: One of the great things about ubuntu is the support.  If you insist on using wubi, we can NOT help you when you have a problem.. not IF you have a problem
[15:18] <ikonia> Whitor: /etc/nsswitch.conf sorry
[15:18] <Whitor> Slart: I'm using my own DNS. and its not ping... its http that I really need...
[15:18] <Whitor> ikonia: thaks
[15:18] <jmazaredo2> ill check again later ty slytherin
[15:19] <slytherin> destinyking: You don't need much knowledge of dual booting. Just go ahead and install Ubuntu
[15:19] <destinyking> anyways thanx a lot to everyone
[15:19] <Whitor> ikonia: is this the line we are looking for? hosts:          files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4

[15:20] <bastid_raZor> destinyking, more than likely you'll have to run the windows install disk at the end to fix some files.. windows tends to spread their system files all across the partition. simple repair from the install disk should do it
[15:20] <anzan> Jack_Sparrow, why do you say "WHEN you have a problem" re Wubi? I'm just wondering?
[15:20] <ikonia> [Ramy]: show me the output of "mount" in a pastbin please

[15:23] <Hyber[at]Work> when I try and boot from the CD, I can press enter to start ubuntu... I can move around and choose to boot from harddisk.. but nothing happens if I try and boot into ubuntu... Anyone know what that could be?
[15:23] <Slart> tvisto: using samba... it does shared drives and printers
[15:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Hyber[at]Work: Nothing happens... nothing at all
[15:23] <destinyking> what should be done so that i can see my windows drives in linux
[15:24] <ezequiel> de donde son?
[15:24] <tvisto> Slart: do i have to install it on my pc then yeah?
[15:24] <Hyber[at]Work> Jack_Sparrow, CD-drive just blinks and then nothing more
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> destinyking: should not be a problem.. ntfs read has always worked
[15:24] <Hyber[at]Work> Jack_Sparrow, I does not leave the menu
[15:24] <tvisto> Slart: thanks you helped alot!!!
[15:24] <Slart> tvisto: nope.. samba is the linux software that does about the same thing as the sharing stuff on a windows machine
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Hyber[at]Work: check the cd for defects?
[15:24] <Hyber[at]Work> Jack_Sparrow, I tried from 2 different (dell) machines and in a vmware server..
[15:24] <Whitor> Slart: ikonia: here is my pastebin http://pastebin.com/m57012bf1
[15:25] <[Ramy]> ikonia , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45256/
[15:25] <Hyber[at]Work> Jack_Sparrow, that options does not work either..
[15:25] <underdawg> what's the name of the program that is like an ftp interface for windows to transfer files via ssh?
[15:25] <tvisto> Slart: Thanks again!
[15:25] <underdawg> win something
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Hyber[at]Work: Bad burn or download
[15:25] <underdawg> I need to d/l it
[15:25] <ezequiel> where are you from(alls)?
[15:25] <dlapoint> underdawg, winscp
[15:25] <Hyber[at]Work> Jack_Sparrow, sounds wierd that I can boot from it then.. but I guess I should try and download from another place.. got any recommendations?
[15:26] <destinyking> no, i dont see any windows drives(ntfs partitions) listed
[15:26] <underdawg> dlapoint: thank you
[15:26] <dlapoint> no problem
[15:26] <Slart> Whitor: and you can't ping server1.avc.local?
[15:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Hyber[at]Work: You can use one of those other machines to verify the md5... nero has a free md5 checker
[15:26] <Whitor> Slart: Crrect... odd isn't it?
[15:26] <brobostigon> !fdisk | destinyking
[15:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:26] <underdawg> is there a way of seeing if ubuntu will like an asus board that I'm buying?  (ASUS a8r-mx)
[15:26] <Whitor> Slart: but I can ping the ip
[15:26] <underdawg> google didnt help me
[15:26] <Hyber[at]Work> Jack_Sparrow, okay will try that..

[15:27] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware
[15:27] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[15:27] <Whitor> and nslookup resolves ...
[15:27] <Slart> Whitor: yes.. very odd.. it just quits with a "unknown host"?
[15:27] <Whitor> Slart: yep
[15:27] <yellabs_> !cfdisk
[15:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cfdisk - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:28] <underdawg> uh-oh it says a8r-mvp but now a8r-mx
[15:28] <ramza3> I installed FF3a8 through apt, I want to install beta, I dont think it is available, should I install it the normal way?
[15:28] <underdawg> hmm
[15:28] <Whitor> Slart: is it possible that its trying to go out trough my wireless card? ... which isn't connected to anything... ?
[15:28] <yellabs_> hmm, ubotu needs to learn some new things
[15:28] <Whitor> but nslookup is going out through my wired connection and thus working fine ...
[15:28] <yellabs_> !qparted
[15:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about qparted - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:28] <Slart> Whitor: that sounds like a very annoying behaviour..
[15:28] <Alin> hello
[15:28] <yellabs_> !gparted
[15:28] <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
[15:28] <yellabs_> ah , its knows something
[15:28] <yellabs_> :P
[15:29] <Whitor> Slart: annoying indeed, thanks for sympathizing.
[15:29] <Alin> i have a problem with the splash screen
[15:29] <Alin> can anyone help me ?
[15:29] <yellabs_> Alin whats the problem?
[15:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !ask
[15:29] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[15:29] <Alin> it appears a message "Authentication failed" (gutsy)
[15:29] <rubydiamond> my mysql-admin asks me to login to localhost connection everytime I click edit data.. how to make it permanent?
[15:29] <Slart> Whitor: what does the command "route" tell you.. put it on the same pastebin?
[15:30] <lusepuster_> Hi folks-running gutsy w some few KDE apps, including Kopete for video chat... My prob is, only Kopete is stable for that (skype beta crashes the video, amsn don't work), but when I see my g/f, the image lags terribly, like, for minutes. Known problem,and is there a cure?
[15:30] <Alin> i can't do anything
[15:30] <Alin> any ideea ?
[15:30] <yellabs_> Alin : caps lock on?
[15:30] <stefg> lusepuster_: not sure if it's related but you could try disbling ipv6
[15:31] <stefg> !ipv6 | lusepuster_
[15:31] <ubotu> lusepuster_: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4

[15:31] <Alin> i can't access the user input box
[15:32] <rubydiamond> my mysql-admin asks me to login to localhost connection everytime I click edit data.. how to make it permanent?

[15:33] <ourumov> hi
[15:33] <lusepuster_> stefg; my image goes throught to her fine-fine, just hers going the other way that's slow... would that seem like an IPv6 prob?
[15:33] <Mark761966> I downloaded the gOS iso. Can anyone talk me through getting it to work in virtual box?
[15:34] <thedefender> hi all is there a way to make a program not go through XGL when XGL is enabled on the desktop
[15:34] <thedefender> and wil DRI still be available to the program
[15:34] <Pici> Mark761966: Try asking in #vbox, gOS is not Ubuntu
[15:34] <rubydiamond> my mysql-admin asks me to login to localhost connection everytime I click edit data.. how to make it permanent? I am on Ubuntu
[15:34] <stefg> lusepuster_: i don't know. but it doesn't hurt trying, even if it doesn't do anything it's safe to have it disabled
[15:34] <Alin> it a simple dialog box, not like the "wrong user/password" one
[15:34] <Alin> it is*
[15:35] <ArthurArchnix> I'm sick of rythmbox giving me import errors. What would the command look like to recusively scan every folder under /music and delete all files with extension .db Something like this? >rm -R *.db /mnt/music<
[15:35] <lusepuster_> stefg: Okay thanks...
[15:36] <ramza3> anybody know where I can get a firefox3beta deb package or ubuntu install
[15:36] <DaveG|> exit
[15:36] <DaveG|> nooo
[15:36] <ourumov> I tried to mount a ext3 (and several others) partition while installing ubunto but it doesn't work! "No such device". But device is there and has a major as well minor device number. Altough my hdd seems to be /dev/sda instead of /dev/hda.   Any ideas?
[15:37] <stefg> ourumov: ubuntu uses libata for Pata now, so it's norml that hda became sda
[15:37] <Alin> so... anyone can help me ?
[15:37] <stefg> !uuid | ourumov
[15:37] <ubotu> ourumov: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[15:38] <Whitor> Slart: new pastebin with route: http://pastebin.com/m57eb54cf
[15:38] <bastid_raZor> if tzdata failed to update correctly via apt-get .. i should sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata ? what does after that
[15:38] <DM|> Anyone notice in gutsy when you "open with" GIMP it opens up a new gimp every single time you do that to a new picture/xcf
[15:38] <ehird1> So how do I reinstall GRUB?
[15:38] <ehird1> I can probably get into recovery mode.
[15:38] <ourumov> stefg: ok with sda. uuid? you mean i should try /dev/disk/by-uuid/.... ?
[15:39] <jaym> why is it on rhythmbox and banshee switching from one song to another using a daap server causes it to stop playing?
[15:39] <stefg> ourumov: i don't know what you want to do ... the !uuid factoid has just some info why your hda is sdy now
[15:40] <ourumov> stefg: ah ok
[15:40] <VSpike> Hey guys - can anyone help with tools to compare directory contents recursively?
[15:40] <VSpike> I tried diff but it doesn't seem to be exactly what i want
[15:40] <jahdeko> hi
[15:40] <stefg> ourumov: and generally it's a bad idea to mount any partitions manually during install, since they need to be mounted in /target
[15:40] <ArthurArchnix> The man page on 'rm' isn't too helpful in terms of explaining how to use wildcards. If I'm at /mnt/music and I have a hundred folders and want to delete every file with extension .db in all those folders, would this command work "rm -r *.db" or would that search my entire hard drive?
[15:40] <ehird1> So how do I reinstall GRUB? I can probably get into recovery mode.
[15:41] <VSpike> I don't actually want a file level diff - at least by default.  I'm looking for summary info, like which files are unique to which directories, which are identical (at least in size and date stamp) and which differ in those
[15:41] <stefg> !grub | ehird1
[15:41] <ubotu> ehird1: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[15:41] <stefg> ehird1: google should have been your first thought
[15:41] <VSpike> I installed mc but I can't even figure out how to use it - and there doesn't seem to be much documentation online, if any
[15:41] <ehird1> stefg: it was, thanks
[15:42] <VSpike> on a similar note, how can I make find print relative paths?
[15:42] <linux4me> hi guys, i'm trying to connect remotely from my ubuntu 7.10 desktop (gui) to another box on my lan running solaris 5.8 (x-windows).  What do you recommend?
[15:42] <VSpike> linux4me: connect in what sense?
[15:42] <tussey> is there a way (script) to remove duplicate messages in Mail.app?
[15:42] <stefg> linux4me: openssh
[15:42] <bastid_raZor> ArthurArchnix, rm -R .. and since you do not have the -f flag you would be able to say yes or no to each file.
[15:42] <Matic`Makovec> Hey there. Could someome point me to a picture/graphics editor which can save files in .ico format?
[15:42] <tussey> oops wrong channel
[15:42] <Slart> Whitor: ok.. the route table looked normal.. you've got your wireless connection but it's not the default
[15:43] <bieb> has anyone here looked at the Black Friday ads for laptops? I am looking to buy a laptop and was wondering about the Ubuntu support for any of the sub $500 laptops here.. http://www.notebooks.com/black-friday-notebooks/
[15:43] <VSpike> i have a horrible feeling I'm going to have to run beyond compare in WINE :(
[15:43] <ArthurArchnix> bastid_raZor: so /mnt/Music$ rm -R -f *.db    would be better then.
[15:43] <ourumov> stefg: I'm trying to install ubunto using alternateISO without any CD-ROM drive (subnotebook). Therefore I want to mount the ext3 FS to install base system.
[15:43] <linux4me> vspike - connect using xwindows as i need to run an x-windows program on the solaris box
[15:43] <stefg> !hardware | bieb
[15:43] <ubotu> bieb: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[15:44] <Slart> Whitor: but on the other hand.. your link-local has a metric of 0.. so I guess it could be using that for resolution
[15:44] <stefg> !install | ourumov , here are some tricks for you
[15:44] <ubotu> ourumov , here are some tricks for you: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[15:44] <bastid_raZor> ArthurArchnix, rm -Rf would do. and it will not go outside the directory you're in. meaning /mnt/Music is all it would search and any sub directories.
[15:44] <VSpike> linux4me: you should be able to do that using ssh if you use the right parameters
[15:44] <ArthurArchnix> bastid_raZor: Thanks
[15:44] <linux4me> VSpike - so i guess i just have to configure ssh properly on the solaris box then
[15:45] <methods[laptop]> my tty's are really out of resolution... anyone know why they are like this ?
[15:45] <stefg> ourumov: use a USB stick
[15:45] <ourumov> stefg: I will read
[15:45] <Slart> Whitor: have you tried disabling your wireless network?
[15:45] <ourumov> stefg: No, sadly cant boot from USB :(
[15:45] <DM|> ok well GNUMP3D isnt working as i want it to, I just want to be able to play music on a PC remotley connected to my PC at home, is there another solution?
[15:45] <Whitor> Slart: actually. no
[15:45] <bieb> stefg I had looked there.. the Presario at Circuit City is not listed. Thats why I figured if anyone else has been looking at them or already owns one
[15:45] <ourumov> !install
[15:45] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[15:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tzdata - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:46] <ericvw> hey, how can i remote desktop to my ubuntu desktop at home
[15:46] <bazhang> ourumov: try pendrivelinux dot com
[15:46] <stefg> bieb: waht you really need to know is the chipset/motherboard and graphics chip.
[15:46] <ericvw> My computer restarted, but I don't think it will let me VNC because I am not logged in
[15:46] <ericvw> is this true?
[15:46] <ArthurArchnix> bastid_raZor: This command: rm -rf *.db isn't going into subfolders... neither does it with a capital R
[15:46] <bieb> stefg wireless card also?
[15:46] <stefg> bieb: right.
[15:46] <bieb> cool
[15:46] <Whitor> Slart: no change in behavior
[15:47] <Slart> Whitor: and the route table? changed?
[15:47] <Whitor> Slart: yup... much shorter
[15:47] <Slart> but link-local still has a metric of 0?
[15:47] <Jack_Sparrow> ericvw: from a second ubuntu machine or windows machine
[15:47] <Whitor> still: default         <IP_ADDRESS>   <IP_ADDRESS>         UG    100    0        0 eth0
[15:48] <methods[laptop]> someone give me a hint really quick please ?
[15:48] <stefg> bieb: so intel and nvidia chipsets do usually give the least problems, while Ati drivers suck (yet), and exotic mobo chipsets might give you acpi trouble (suspend not working, nboot trouble)
[15:48] <Whitor> This is bizzare
[15:48] <ericvw> Jack_Sparrow:  I am going form Windows -> Ubuntu.  It worked locally within my network at home, but I had to SSH from outside and restart my Ubuntu box, and know I can't get VNC to connect.  It just says connection is refused.
[15:48] <Whitor> I'm glad its bizzare for other people too
[15:48] <ericvw> Jack_Sparrow: I even logged into a Windows maching remotely within the network trying to use VNC viewer so I know it is not my router
[15:48] <bieb> stefg  I will stay away from ATI
[15:49] <Jack_Sparrow> ericvw: I assume you have already setup          system/pref/remote desktop
[15:49] <bieb> intel vs AMD?
[15:49] <DM|> bieb for now yes, they made some drivers open source finally though, from what i read
[15:49] <bieb> good? bad? ugly?
[15:49] <ericvw> Jack_Sparrow: Yeah.  I am fairly confident with Unix, but I am just unsure that the reason why I can't connect is because I am not past the login screen of Ubuntu because of the restart
[15:49] <Slart> Whitor: hmm.. seems metric isn't used by recent kernels.. unless you're running some routing software
[15:49] <ijk> I have no idea why, but my "Desktop" folder is currently set to my homedir. Any hint on how to set it back to ~/Desktop ?
[15:49] <Whitor> Slart: I am not
[15:49] <mark488> in gparted, I set it to make new partitions, but it keeps mounting the first one and stopping 'cause it says it can't format a mounted partition.  Any help?  (why in the world it it automatically automounting partitions?)
[15:50] <Whitor> Slart: but I am running VMWare... I wonder if that could be contributing ...
[15:50] <Pici> ArthurArchnix: find /path/to/files -name "*\.db" -exec rm -f {} should work.  test it with removing the part past and including -exec to make sure its getting the right files.
[15:50] <ArthurArchnix> Well that's upsetting.
[15:50] <Jack_Sparrow> ericvw: You dont have current physical access to the ub machine..?
[15:50] <ArthurArchnix> All my music is gone.
[15:50] <stefg> bieb: cpu isn't the problem, it's the mobo chipset. so my favourite Combo is AMD/nforce/nvidia , but intel-cpu/intel-chipset/intel-graphics works well, too
[15:50] <Whitor> Slart: but I'm not doing this through a vmware session... so Idk...
[15:50]  * ArthurArchnix looks around bewildered.
[15:50] <Slart> Whitor: it shouldn't be messing up your regular networking... but who knows..
[15:50] <Pici> ArthurArchnix: What command did you run?
[15:51] <ArthurArchnix> rm -Rf *.db /mnt/locker/Music
[15:51] <Whitor> Slart: lol! obviously not me
[15:51] <Jack_Sparrow> ericvw: Sorry, got to go, wife is giving me that "LOOK"  everyone please play nice.  Sorry if I was a little testy today...  Pici, keep up the good work
[15:51] <bieb> stefg  thanks for that info
[15:51] <Slart> whitor =)
[15:51] <Pici> ArthurArchnix: You just told it to remove *.db AND /mnt/locker/Music
[15:51] <ericvw> Jack_Sparrow: no worries I will figure it out
[15:51] <[Ramy]> ikonia , what do you think ?
[15:52] <Dekkard> question.. can I install Firefox beta 1 on gustsy, using the official Firefox installer and NOT bork my system?
[15:52] <Whitor> Slart: ... get this.... ping server1.avc.local works within a windows VMWare session :)
[15:52] <Whitor> so does http
[15:52] <ArthurArchnix> Pici: I don't even want to tell you the command I tried before that.
[15:52] <Whitor> the plot just got ugly
[15:52] <genii> work /away
[15:52] <genii> bah
[15:52] <Slart> Whitor: hmm..so vmware knows how to reach the net.. while the host is fumbling in the dark =)
[15:52] <ijk> =/
[15:53] <Pici> ArthurArchnix: I dont think I want to know either.
[15:53] <Whitor> Slart: the host is able to get out to the net... just not this one host
[15:53] <tussey> is there a way to shift around my data so it doesn't get destroyed when I resize my partitions
[15:53] <Whitor> Slart: but my vmware sesion does ... (as does every other computer on the network)
[15:53] <Whitor> just not my linux computer

[15:54] <dave_>   Title

[15:54] <ArthurArchnix> Pici: I'll just say my icons have reverted to their default theme, and my blood pressure is high. What would the command have been to have rm delete every file with extension .db from every folder under /Music
[15:54] <dave_>   para
[15:54] <dave_> opps- sorry
[15:54] <Profanephobia> dave_, paste boy paste .. :)
[15:54] <Whitor> Just trying to debug this... a reboot might solve this... I've had problems switching back and forth between network profiles... it doesn't realy seem to switch unless I reboot

[15:55] <tim> fix mbr vista
[15:55] <Whitor> one of the updates in the last week made it beter though....
[15:55] <ArthurArchnix> Looks like I quit the command before it got to my documents. Phew.
[15:55] <Pici> ArthurArchnix: find /Music -name "*\.db" -exec rm -f {}
[15:55] <stefg> Whitor: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart ?
[15:55] <ramza3> how do I turn a shell script into an executable.  Right now I get a prompt asking me if I should run the text file.?
[15:55] <Whitor> stefg: that is an awesome command! thanks you !!
[15:55] <tussey> is there a way to shift around my data so it doesn't get destroyed when I resize my partitions
[15:56] <ArthurArchnix> Pici: Thanks. I wasn't even close.
[15:56] <Whitor> brb
[15:56] <Whitor> I suspect ...
