[02:43] <OptiPlex> heh I did that the other day
[02:43] <OptiPlex> :[\
[02:43] <Knowerrors> OptiPlex: yeah, try changing your apt list from us.whatever to just whatever
[02:43] <F-Jakob> how do i install rpm pakages?
[02:43] <synapsis_> finally installed ubuntu, can't wait to see what happens now
[02:43] <F-Jakob> In Ubuntu...
[02:43] <OptiPlex> ahh ty Knowerrors
[02:43] <dabaR> F-Jakob: by avoiding them, and uising .debs, .bins, and source code instead.
[02:43] <McJerry> can someone help me troubleshoot and solve video failure on boot up
[02:43] <F-Jakob> :-D
[02:43] <OptiPlex> Knowerrors: but I just use the default keys?
[02:44] <OptiPlex> F-Jakob: alien -i <packagename.rpm>
[02:44] <F-Jakob> dabaR But i can't install Limewire then...
[02:44] <Knowerrors> I didn't have to change keys
[02:44] <dabaR> F-Jakob: get the one for other systems, there is no installation.
[02:44] <F-Jakob> (y)
[02:44] <Knowerrors> OptiPlex: depends on your GPG problem
[02:45] <XRange> dabaR: it's there i think
[02:45] <dabaR> haha, an msn thumbs up...
[02:45] <Knowerrors> OptiPlex: I just changed us.archive.ubuntu.com to archive.ubuntu.com for all the repositories and updated
[02:45] <dabaR> ubuntu: did you say you get a shell and no X windows?
[02:45] <OptiPlex> Knowerrors: Ill keep you posted. *reloads package list*
[02:45] <ubuntu> precisely dabaR
[02:45] <OptiPlex> im gonna go watch Penn and Teller :]
[02:45] <kapputu> where can I get a copy of the Cisco VPN client for Linux???
[02:45] <Paradoxx> y is it for my sound settings, when it goes to '50%' it goes silent and then 51% acts like 1% of the actual output?
[02:45] <ubuntu> couldn't even find anything resembling gnome or xwindows using ls from bash.
[02:45] <Paradoxx> !sound
[02:45] <ubotu> rumour has it, sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[02:45] <dabaR> ubuntu: follow the instructions on the nvidia wiki page ubotu told you about in private.
[02:46] <Knowerrors> how do you get Qtparted to format a partition as NTFS?
[02:46] <ubuntu> thanks - but there's an issue there too... the instructions say use synaptic, and tell how to light it off from xwindows not from prompt.
[02:46] <urbanfox|away> on ubuntu, how do I configure network interfaces from the commandline? (like I can with netsetup under slack)
[02:46] <dabaR> XRange: sure is. now that you have looked at your config file, guess on what line you have to put a # on the front to disable the eth1 from loading
[02:46] <MisterFarts> urbanfox|away, configure them permanently or configure them itneractively ?
[02:47] <Dasnipa`> any way to tell what command invokes an app you just installed with apt ? for instance i installed the program "attal" but the obvious command 'attal' doesnt start the app
[02:47] <dabaR> dpkg -L package will list files.
[02:47] <urbanfox|away> misfit_toy> permanently
[02:47] <urbanfox|away> er
[02:47] <urbanfox|away> MisterFarts> permanently
[02:47] <XRange> dabaR: iface eth1 inet dhcp
[02:47] <dabaR> XRange: good work.:)
[02:47] <MisterFarts> urbanfox|away, there appear to be some scripts in /etc/network
[02:48] <jrsims> dabaR: I missed your reply to this one: shouldn't I be able to load the page in my browser regardless of the router settings?
[02:48] <misfit_toy> I have to say I have never been confused with anyone named MisterFarts before
[02:48] <dabaR> try, and then when you reboot next, it should just work, XRange
[02:48] <dabaR> jrsims: on the localhost, yes.
[02:48] <XRange> ok thanks
[02:48] <jrsims> dabaR: k
[02:48] <Paradoxx> y is it for my sound settings, when it goes to '50%' it goes silent and then 51% acts like 1% of the actual output?
[02:49] <dabaR> jrsims: on the other computer, it is as good as firewalled until you forward the port. Because the port is not being forwarded, so its firewalled.
[02:49] <varsendagger> is there a how to for samba
[02:49] <kbrooks> "I love building all sources from scratch, then it will be optimized and made to run smooth for MY machine. as Debian normally uses binary packages, yeah dependencies crap may happen, that's odd, you might as well just switch to pure source base distro, right."
[02:49] <Elsan> I need help. My Applications Menu Editor won't work at all! I see it starting in the taskbar but it just disappears after, I can't edit anything...
[02:49] <kbrooks> lol
[02:49] <MisterFarts> urbanfox|away, check /etc/init.d/networking and see what that thuing does
[02:49] <misfit_toy> varsendagger, http://samba.org
[02:49] <BROKEN_LADDER> Elsan mined doesn't really do much either.
[02:49] <MisterFarts> kbrooks, the credo of retards everywhere
[02:49] <jrsims> dabaR: would 'port triggering' be the same thing as 'port forwarding'?
[02:49] <Toma-> MisterFarts: that wont configure diddly
[02:49] <Elsan> BROKEN_LADDER: What?
[02:49] <BROKEN_LADDER> Elsan did you run smeg?
[02:49] <kbrooks> "I use Gentoo because I'm a speed freak - I can't stand the thought that some of my packages might not be running as fast as they could be."
[02:49] <Knowerrors> !ntfs
[02:49] <ubotu> rumour has it, ntfs is the (N)(T) (F)ile(S)ystem, the filesystem normally used under Windows XP. To automatically mount your NTFS partition/s - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[02:50] <BROKEN_LADDER> !reiser4
[02:50] <ubotu> BROKEN_LADDER: Do they come in packets of five?
[02:50] <BROKEN_LADDER> lol
[02:50] <dabaR> jrsims: perhaps, look at the manual for the router(usually available on the OEM site). It seems so.
[02:50] <DrBair> does anyone know if you can make gnome scripts only show up in the listing if its a certain file type?
[02:50] <occy> does anyone find Breezy unstable?
[02:50] <misfit_toy> occy, not me
[02:50] <Toma-> occy: never
[02:50] <occy> Thunderbird and Firefox are both unstable for me.
[02:50] <occy> they keep crashing.
[02:50] <BROKEN_LADDER> occy i've had tons of problems with it since upgrading from hoary.  but i'm going to try a fresh install.
[02:50] <MisterFarts> Toma-, sure it will, you have to read the script to figure out what it's doing though
[02:50] <occy> Inever had any problems with Hoary
[02:50] <BROKEN_LADDER> occy never had that problem. :/
[02:50] <Toma-> right.
[02:50] <ubuntu> still stuck, reading pages - pardon me idling here a minute.
[02:50] <occy> BROKEN_LADDER, this is from fresh install, not upgrading
[02:50] <BROKEN_LADDER> occy wow.
[02:50] <Elsan> BROKEN_LADDER: I don't know, I go In applications menu then System Utilities and click "diteur de Menu Application"(my OS is in french). I then see "Starting App..." and it disappears and nothing happens. Been like this for a while...
[02:50] <occy> I used the Ireland repos'
[02:51] <crimsun> I just can't seem to run Ubuntu 5.10 PPC on my Dell laptop.
[02:51] <occy> that shouldn't make a diff huh?
[02:51] <Paradoxx> anyone know y is it for my volume settings, when it goes to '50%' it goes silent and then 51% acts like 1% of the actual output?
[02:51] <Paradoxx> !volume
[02:51] <ubotu> Paradoxx: NO SPEAKE ENLISH!
[02:51] <sasquatc4> how do you change the bootup graphic, like where it starts all the services and whatnot

[02:52] <crimsun> Razor-X``: it's fine, the real crimsun was only kidnapped for a moment
[02:52] <occy> crimsun, and I wasn't very tired at the end.
[02:52] <occy> heh
[02:52] <occy> well, I was tired, but not completely worn out.
[02:52] <BROKEN_LADDER> Elsan did you try running from command line?
[02:52] <occy> I had something extra left in the tank.
[02:52] <Elsan> I need help. My Applications Menu Editor won't work at all! I see it starting in the taskbar but it just disappears after, I can't edit anything...
[02:52] <EnsignRedshirt> Hello, world.
[02:53] <occy> hmmm
[02:53] <Razor-X``> crimsun: oh, ok
[02:53] <occy> I wonder if it could be my GTK theme causing the problem.
[02:53] <dabaR> Elsan: oh no, now you cant edit the application menu...
[02:53] <EnsignRedshirt> Anyone here familiar with latex/dvips/ps2pdf?
[02:53] <occy> crimsun, think it could be my gtk theme?
[02:53] <BROKEN_LADDER> crimsun is there reiser4 for ubuntu?
[02:53] <McJerry> can anyone help with problem.....load fails after startx.......no video, just blank screen
[02:53] <crimsun> occy: hmm, but then it would be manifest across all gtk apps
[02:53] <occy> crimsun, I never had problems with it under Hoary though.
[02:53] <BROKEN_LADDER> McJerry same thing happened to me for a long time.  i don't remember how i fixed it.  it was tons of work.
[02:53] <Elsan> BROKEN_LADDER: what is the command?
[02:53] <crimsun> occy: can you reproduce the instability with a new user?
[02:53] <BROKEN_LADDER> Elsan smeg
[02:54] <Elsan> dabaR: It's just a french translation
[02:54] <occy> crimsun, interesting point, I did copy over my preferences
[02:54] <occy> crimsun, meaning, I used the old ~
[02:54] <dabaR> Elsan: and a fine one to that.
[02:54] <UbuntuTUX> alguem ai sabe a senha de root do live cd do ubunt:
[02:54] <BROKEN_LADDER> occy yeah, there's a good chance you just need to start with fresh profiles
[02:54] <occy> :/
[02:54] <occy> hmm
[02:54] <EnsignRedshirt> ps2pdf seems to shift the document up by about half an inch.
[02:54] <crimsun> BROKEN_LADDER: not yet
[02:54] <occy> man, that is the suxx0r
[02:54] <UbuntuTUX> what is the root password of the live cd/
[02:54] <McJerry> broken_ladder.......what command do i run at console to reconfigure video
[02:54] <crimsun> UbuntuTUX: set one.
[02:54] <ithiel> UbuntuTUX, there isn't one
[02:54] <BROKEN_LADDER> McJerry dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[02:54] <UbuntuTUX> crimsun, how/
[02:55] <ubuntu> ok, doing the nvidia glx install thru synaptic - this can be done from live version and will fix on the hdd, yes?
[02:55] <occy> crimsun, so you are saying, try and operate as another user, see if I have any problems, if I don't then, it's probably my prefs config files.
[02:55] <BROKEN_LADDER> occy exactly.
[02:55] <occy> BROKEN_LADDER, good thinking guys.
[02:55] <occy> :/
[02:55] <Elsan> BROKEN_LADDER, dabaR: I'll post my error.
[02:55] <BROKEN_LADDER> occy you could even rename your config directory for a second.
[02:55] <occy> well
[02:55] <occy> I can't reproduce the issue
[02:55] <occy> Like...
[02:55] <occy> I can't do a certain thing and have it barf
[02:56] <occy> it seems like a random occurance

[03:00] <mike_douglas> just last week my printer started printing everything in a shade of pink. At first I thought it was an ink cartridge issue, but after I replaced them, all my documents are still pink.   I hope we can get this fixed and up and running.  I'm so sick of all the M$problems it's not even funny.
[03:01] <BROKEN_LADDER> crimsun doh!  it's just firefox trying to increment the name because an existing file with that name exists.  bizarre.
[03:01] <mike_douglas> hah
[03:02] <dabaR> XRange: try changing the map eth1 to map eth2:)
[03:02] <XRange> ok
[03:02] <dabaR> XRange: reading the config file can tell you lots.
[03:03] <EasterSunshine> hi all, i was wondering if there were any 3d desktop managers or 3d file browsers in the repos for breezy? anything 3d and desktop-related, not games
[03:03] <thrice`> what is the pack to remove obselete packs ?
[03:03] <DaMouse> anyone know what i should be using for speech-to-commands ?
[03:03] <EasterSunshine> thrice`: debfoster?
[03:03] <Toma-> EasterSunshine: use synaptic and search for 3d
[03:03] <Paradoxx> anyone know y is it for my volume settings, when it goes to '50%' it goes silent and then 51% acts like 1% of the actual output?
[03:03] <dabaR> Paradoxx: not y x
[03:03] <ithiel> EasterSunshine, Project Looking Glass
[03:04] <Paradoxx> dabaR: huh?
[03:04] <thrice`> EasterSunshine, thansk :)
[03:04] <DaMouse> anyone? :(
[03:04] <EasterSunshine> ithiel: it is in the repos? what is the package name, i couldn't find it
[03:04] <McJerry> BROKEN_LADDER

[03:05] <dabaR> Paradoxx: refer to Knowerrors' last post
[03:05] <ithiel> _smd_, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg you need to set your vertical/horizontal frequency limits properly
[03:06] <Elsan> I need help. My Applications Menu Editor won't work at all! I see it starting in the taskbar but it just disappears after, I can't edit anything... http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/4507 Maybe it is caused by the fact that some programs were added automatically to the GNOME menu...
[03:06] <_smd_>  ithiel: i know basically nothing about computers :( \
[03:06] <dabaR> _smd_: not so.  Wondering if anyone's able to suspend-to-ram or sleep their machine ?
[03:07] <ithiel> _smd_, its ok, just choose lower refresh rates/frequencies, they're prolly too high for the resolution you are choosing
[03:07] <dabaR> _smd_: post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to paste.ubuntulinux.nl (cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf)

[03:07] <BROKEN_LADDER> crimsun do you think reinstalling breezy from disc might fix some problems i've had since upgrading from hoary?
[03:07] <dabaR> Paradoxx: I dont know the answer.
[03:07] <MagicFab> Mabus06: insert a blank DVD and Nautilus should prompt to to do ti

[03:18] <mclaren266> i did
[03:18] <Mabus06> You're doing something wrong obviously, which I can't tell you what it is. So just reread that.

[03:19] <ithiel> sasquatc4, I wish.
[03:19] <ithiel> ubotu usplash
[03:19] <ubotu> usplash is, like, for your information, about Usplash : if you use a home-built kernel, required options are initramfs & framebuffer, that's all ... don't take any prerequisites used for bootsplash or patches in consideration
[03:19] <Dez[debian] > i get this everytime i try to unrar something -> unrar: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[03:19] <ubotu> ithiel: Syntax error in line 1
[03:20] <kapputu> has anyone used the patch version of interceptor.c ??
[03:20] <dabaR> Dez[debian] : for that, you just need to install that package.
[03:20] <dabaR> libstdc++5
[03:20] <rabeldable> I suggest clicking around for about an hour and checking out the OS.  ubuntu has some really great features and gnome has came along way in the last two years.
[03:20] <_brian> !w32codecs
[03:20] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, w32codecs is for w32codecs in Breezy visit http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/dists/breezy-seveas/breezy-extras/

[03:21] <spine> MABUS, xine loads plays about a sec and crashes, do you happen to know if it is a driver problem?
[03:21] <rabeldable> I don't have any problems on my laptop, with a 17 in monitor, 1400x900 resolution, wireless and sound works, as a matter of fact I watched a dvd on it a few days ago with no problems either

[03:21] <srbaker> is there any presentation software for gnome?
[03:21] <synapsis_> i have yet to hook my internet up, however, i'm hoping that when i do ubuntu will recognize it. will this happen or will i have to configure?
[03:21] <rabeldable> !libdvdcss
[03:21] <ubotu> rabeldable: I haven't a clue
[03:21] <rabeldable> !libdwdcss2
[03:21] <ubotu> I don't know, rabeldable
[03:22] <ithiel> ubotu libdvdcss
[03:22] <BROKEN_LADDER> is there anything wrong with this line that should stop a user from being able to write to this drive? /dev/hdc1      /mnt/HD2        reiserfs rw,user       0       4
[03:22] <BROKEN_LADDER> /dev/hdc1      /mnt/HD2        reiserfs rw,user       0       4
[03:22] <ithiel> ubotu libdvdcss2
[03:22] <ubotu> libdvdcss2 is probably to enable DVD playback, read and use this local file for libdvdcss2 /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh   Don't have this file? Install "libdvdread3"
[03:22] <spine> MABUS, xine loads plays about a sec and crashes, do you happen to know if it is a driver problem?
[03:22] <Beuno> hey, Ive been trying for hours to get my Ati Mobility 9100 to accelerate something, I did all the how-to's and still seem to be using the mesa driver, any ideas?
[03:23] <rabeldable> Beuno: did you edit your xorg.conf file?
[03:23] <ithiel> ubotu tell Beuno about ati
[03:23] <spine> can anyone tell me why totem-xine loads the video and crashes
[03:23] <BROKEN_LADDER> Beuno did you rmmod the modules for the mesa and modprobe the right module
[03:23] <spine> does that sound like a driver isue
[03:24] <BROKEN_LADDER> spine you should run from command line and see the output.
[03:24] <ithiel> spine, libdvdcss2?
[03:24] <synapsis_> when i restart my computer, and hook the internet up to it, will ubuntu recognize that the internet is connected? or will i have to troubleshoot and figure out things i don't know?
[03:24] <BROKEN_LADDER> it should give you some clues, and you can google those error messages to find help
[03:24] <Beuno> broken no!   how do I do that?
[03:24] <BROKEN_LADDER> Beuno lsmod | grep mesa
[03:24] <BROKEN_LADDER> Beuno what does that say?
[03:24] <ithiel> synapsis_, you can prolly assume so yes
[03:24] <spine> thx, im not at strategizing computer usage
[03:24] <Beuno> absolutely nothing
[03:24] <rabeldable> synapsis_: reboot your computer and find out
[03:24] <spine> im not good*
[03:24] <synapsis_> grr ;)
[03:24] <PMantis> ubotu, I have it installed. In fact I was at UBZ asking why it can't crack some my my DVDs, and the persion that looked at it couldn't figure it out. I've remover, reinstalled libdvdread3, tried a couple different version of libdvdcss... doesn't crack all keys on a DVD. :(

[03:28] <PMantis> ithiel, So anyway, anyone have a clue what a fully installed libdvdcss can't crack any of my DVDs?  http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/4509
[03:29] <ithiel> mclaren266, essentially yes, it looks better in my opinion though
[03:29] <mr-russ> its there a way to install ubuntu in a chroot environment?  not using debain as a base?
[03:29] <rabeldable> haha, i read the quote...
[03:29] <ithiel> mclaren266, try playing around with the options, choose what looks best to you
[03:29] <PMantis> ithiel, Well, except burned DVDd, but they're not encrypted, so.......

[03:32] <ithiel> lol...
[03:33] <PMantis> ithiel, like I said in Montreal, at UBZ. the one guy that looked at it coudn't figure out why it couldn't crack the DVD. We tried totem, mplayer, and one more (forgot).
[03:33] <varsendagger> _smd_, what dvd?
[03:33] <_smd_> the machinist.. messed up
[03:33] <varsendagger> i bet

[03:39] <psusi> ufk, why do you ask?
[03:39] <OptiPlex> ty
[03:39] <PMantis> Ok, many people joined. repeat: libdvdcss is installed, but is giving "error cracking"
[03:39] <PMantis> libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access
[03:39] <glick> i dont get it i type in "the shape of my heart" into gtk-gnutella
[03:40] <glick> and i get hits like "jenna jamesson slurping the man meat" wtf!?
[03:40] <ufk> cause ubuntu amd64 livecd sees my drives. no other live cd of any other distro nor the kernel i'm trying to compile
[03:40] <kapputu> CAn someone tell me where to get a Cisco VPN client for Linux - I'm looking for version 4.0.3
[03:40] <psusi> ufk, see which driver it is using and make sure you enable that driver
[03:40] <underdog> guys, where can I find info on 5.10's unstable repositories?
[03:41] <misfit_toybuntu> anybody use GAIM-VV with voice/video support? is it stable?
[03:42] <psusi> ufk, try lspci to see what pci devices you have on the system... find the device number of your sata controler and look in /sys/devices/pci0000/:00 for the directory with that number... it should have a symlink named driver that shows the name of the driver
[03:42] <OptiPlex> propagandhi: let's try to update this thing again lol
[03:42] <ufk> that's what i'm tryin
[03:42] <psusi> this is when it is working from the livecd of course
[03:42] <ufk> lspci just shows me lots of unknown devices with no sata controller
[03:43] <psusi> ufk, this is from the livecd where it works?
[03:43] <OptiPlex> HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA it works! w000t!
[03:43] <psusi> paste the output to pastebin
[03:44] <ufk> yeah

[03:45] <OptiPlex> The other day I tried to get universe/multiverse, and it kept timing out on me cause of gpg and slow dialup
[03:45] <OptiPlex> this time I removed one gpg key, and bam mp3 support
[03:45] <ufk> i'm trying to compile all ide and sata drivers, hope that will do :)
[03:45] <OptiPlex> ...now if I could only get my xvidtune settings to load on boot, I will be one happy f00 :}
[03:46] <PMantis> libdvdcss 1.2.9 installed with libdvdread3. Now see: "Error cracking CSS key for..."  Details: http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/4509

[03:53] <BROKEN_LADDER> anyone here have a sip phone?
[03:53] <intelikey> kapputu why not try "apt-cache search cisco "
[03:53] <BROKEN_LADDER> hey, if i have an iso of mac osx, do i need to probably move the iso to a hard drive to boot from it?  is that possible?

[03:55] <intelikey> tyler is build-essential installed ?
[03:55] <tyler> no sir
[03:55] <theoddbot> tyler: try dpkg --configure --force-depends -a
[03:55] <intelikey> kapputu you know as much about it as i do.     try 'apt-cache show vpnc ' for a little more info.
[03:56] <theoddbot> that bloody cisco thing is hard enough to set up on mac never tried linux
[03:56] <tyler> dpkg --configure --force-depends -a
[03:56] <tyler> dpkg: blt: dependency problems, but configuring anyway as you request:

[03:59] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: behind a router or do you have to run a ppp client
[03:59] <Ramoned> anyone can help me with vsftpd ?
[03:59] <SEJeff> NightVision: w32codecs are not mp3. gstreamer0.8-plugins-multiverse has mp3
[03:59] <OptiPlex> aww no linux port of necrotech yet :[
[03:59] <OptiPlex> Ramoned: whatcha need to know? I may know something.
[03:59] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: neither, i'm not using a router, nor do i use a ppp client.
[04:00] <NightVision> ok
[04:00] <SEJeff> NightVision: Enable the multiverse repository and then search for the package I just said
[04:00] <Victor_jiang> Mark Shuttleworth is the only sabdef?
[04:00] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: modem is usb or ethernet ?
[04:00] <Ramoned> i installed vsftpd with apt but i have troubles with permissions
[04:00] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: ethernet
[04:00] <Victor_jiang> Mark Shuttleworth is ht only sabdfl?
[04:00] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: i was trying to enable the ethernet connection, however it just sat there.
[04:00] <Ramoned> i couldnt modify a file and now i can but i cant download the file
[04:00] <OptiPlex> Ramoned: try chmod
[04:00] <OptiPlex> oooh that sucks
[04:00] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: do you have to set a static ip ?
[04:00] <Ramoned> its 777
[04:01] <Ramoned> lol
[04:01] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: nope
[04:01] <OptiPlex> :[
[04:01] <theoddbot> wierd
[04:01] <beuno> Ca[M] eL what does ifconfig spit out?
[04:01] <Ca[M] eL> yeah i don't understand
[04:01] <theoddbot> so its a modem bridge job
[04:01] <Ca[M] eL> beuno: i have no idea, how can i figure that out

[04:01] <ispiked> where can I find a log of the updates I've made with synaptic?

[04:03] <SEJeff> onkarshinde: use gparted
[04:03] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: thanks
[04:03] <intelikey> Ramoned 777 = rwxrwxrwx     it is the binary permissions  of   111111111   devided into three three bit bites  exec=1 write=2 read=4  4+2+1=7

[04:04] <onkarshinde> psusi: SEJeff: It seems it didn't get installed when I upgraded
[04:04] <psusi> onkarshinde: you have to install it
[04:04] <onkarshinde> psusi:
[04:04] <onkarshinde> psusi: Ok
[04:04] <OptiPlex> Nightvision: Im like 200 yards across the stateline, and they get cable on the other side
[04:04] <OptiPlex> ok, maybe 50 yds :[
[04:04] <tyler> l
[04:04] <NightVision> lol
[04:04] <OptiPlex> 500 lol
[04:04] <psusi> SEJeff, do you know how to enable debug level printk messages?  preferably from a specific module?
[04:04] <OptiPlex> I need to climb a tree with a pringles can :]
[04:05] <beuno> no one else had to deal with ati drivers?  :(
[04:05] <onkarshinde> by the way, has anyone faced problem of deleted package list (uni, multi) in synaptic. I have to apt-get update on every reboot
[04:05] <Ramoned> 777 666 644
[04:05] <Ramoned> nothing works
[04:05] <theoddbot> beuno: no we all use nvidia :)
[04:05] <beuno> lol, I used to
[04:05] <Ramoned> i cant open the file
[04:05] <OptiPlex> I use ATI, but its a stock apple part :]
[04:05] <OptiPlex> Ramoned: dont tell me you forgot to ./ it :]
[04:06] <Ramoned> nop
[04:06] <Ramoned> for example
[04:06] <OptiPlex> well, I got nothing on that now
[04:06] <beuno> I just changed to a new laptop, so Im trying to get it working
[04:06] <Ramoned> i created a new acc
[04:06] <Ramoned> called test
[04:06] <Ramoned> oploaded a index.php
[04:06] <minderaser> is this a help site?
[04:06] <OptiPlex> omfg, you are Screewwwwwed man.
[04:06] <Ramoned> uploaded*
[04:06] <Ramoned> i cant view it
[04:06] <OptiPlex> minderaser: yes, even though I spout random comments in here
[04:06] <superbeast> to get wine by apt-get what do i uncomment in sources.list?
[04:07] <intelikey> minderaser some times
[04:07] <OptiPlex> :[
[04:07] <onkarshinde> by the way, has anyone faced problem of deleted package list (uni, multi) in synaptic. I have to apt-get update on every reboot
[04:07] <Xenguy> minderaser: yes
[04:07] <psusi> SEJeff, you go away, or don't know?
[04:07] <minderaser> where to go for SB12 PnP help in ubuntu 5.10
[04:07] <chris_> anyone knows any radio automation software for breezy or linux
[04:07] <minderaser> SB16
[04:08] <crimsun> minderaser: sudo modprobe snd-sb16
[04:08] <superbeast> to get wine by apt-get what do i uncomment in sources.list?
[04:08] <minderaser> thanks
[04:08] <intelikey> #PhP maybe ? minderaser
[04:09] <pavelich> http://rafb.net/paste/results/YP2E1M98.html,  can someone help me i think i have all my functions, but what i really dont know what to do is the main function, the program is supposed to input a string as MMDDYYYY or MDDYYYY and convert to int, check to see if it is all digits, and print out as November 1, 2005
[04:09] <minderaser> plug and pray
[04:09] <Ca[M] eL> unfortunately i didn't configure the DHCP or whatever when i installed ubuntu, is that the reason why my internet connection isn't workin?
[04:09] <OptiPlex> minderaser: I say that to everyone lol
[04:09] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: try dhclient eth0 or similar
[04:09] <pavelich> sorry i am pretty bad and new but i need help
[04:10] <onkarshinde> superbeast: How can we tell wht to uncomment if we don't know what is commented
[04:10] <minderaser> first shot at linux
[04:10] <intelikey> superbeast pool/universe/w/wine/wine_0.0.20050310-1.1_i386.deb  looks like universe
[04:10] <superbeast> onkarshinde it is default
[04:10] <minderaser> getting a real lesson
[04:10] <pavelich> anyone?
[04:10] <Dez[debian] > anyoen know what that prog is that lets you vew system stats in a little box grellm or something like that
[04:10] <OptiPlex> I swear, if the freebsd project and ubuntu merged, we would have a perfect OS
[04:10] <onkarshinde> superbeast: Ok. You have to uncomment the line that contains word 'universe'
[04:10] <OptiPlex> pavelich: just ask, someone will answer. I was told that too
[04:10] <theoddbot> Dez[debian] : yeah gkrellm2 i think these days
[04:11] <onkarshinde> by the way, has anyone faced problem of deleted package list (uni, multi) in synaptic???? I have to apt-get update on every reboot
[04:11] <durt> what are you talking about optiplex? craziness
[04:11] <Xenguy> linux doesn't need fbsd (it takes what it wants already)
[04:11] <minderaser> brb gonna try again
[04:11] <OptiPlex> durt: FreeBSD and Ubuntu simply OWN in different ways
[04:12] <OptiPlex> durt: if both projects became one, no one could stop the product :]
[04:12] <OptiPlex> true, but the way FreeBSD is developed is standardized.
[04:12] <chris_> radio automation software for linux anyone knows any
[04:12] <OptiPlex> which just kicks ass
[04:13] <intelikey> optiplex  it wouldn't be that hard to stop it.    i could pull the plug out of the wall :)
[04:13] <Xenguy> OptiPlex: it's a Cathedral more than a Bazaar -- that's one of the reasons I prefer GNU/Linux
[04:13] <onkarshinde> OptiPlex: One main problem. FreeBSD is BSD licensed. Ubuntu is GPLed
[04:13] <OptiPlex> intelikey: but of course :]
[04:13] <OptiPlex> Xenguy: ...but I like Catholics !
[04:13] <Xenguy> Plus BSD is a limp-dick license
[04:13] <OptiPlex> onkarshinde: ...now don't y'all get all penguin-gang on me.
[04:14] <intelikey> birds of a fether :)
[04:14] <OptiPlex> Xenguy: one thing that is constant from FreeBSD to Ubuntu is that everything must be downloaded. Hence the light weight. :]
[04:14] <Ca[M] eL> anyone have an idea of how i can get ubuntu to recognize my internet connection?
[04:14] <OptiPlex> ..and FreeBSD is just easy as hell, just like Ubuntu :]
[04:15] <intelikey> not without more info Ca[M] eL
[04:15] <NightVision> ifconfig? pump -i eth0
[04:15] <onkarshinde> OptiPlex: No I am not. But consider this. FessBSD and Ubuntu combines. unfortunately part of the system is BSD licensed. M$ steals that part and makes an OS that is not only good looking but also stable.
[04:15] <Xenguy> OptiPlex: seriously, the GPL license is a big factor in my preferences - I will always support Linux becuase of that
[04:15] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: did you try: dhclient eth0
[04:15] <Ca[M] eL> i'll do that now
[04:15] <Xenguy> Ca[M] eL: DHCP or static IP?
[04:15] <OptiPlex> :[
[04:15] <varsendagger> BsDubuntu will be sop cool you don't even know
[04:16] <OptiPlex> onkarshinde: if M$ EVER makes a stable OS, I will buy it because it most likely wont happen anytime soon
[04:16] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: permission denied twice, couldn't create whatever it wanted to do. couldn't set group id: operation not permitted
[04:16] <OptiPlex> BSD/ubuntu would be looks+stability+1337ness :]
[04:16] <intelikey> GNU
[04:16] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: sudo dhclient eth0
[04:16] <intelikey> GPL
[04:16] <intelikey> GNU
[04:16] <intelikey> GPL
[04:16] <onkarshinde> OptiPlex: 8-)
[04:16] <Xenguy> varsendagger: linux has already surpassed bsd AFAICT - but yes, I am biased
[04:16] <OptiPlex> I feel bad about putting XP Home on my Mom's computer
[04:16] <beuno> still cant get the ATI drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?   (eventually some ATI user's gotto look at the screen)
[04:16] <OptiPlex> ...because Ubuntu didnt like her soundcard
[04:17] <intelikey> OptiPlex you should feel bad....
[04:17] <OptiPlex> heh
[04:17] <OptiPlex> she hates M$ as much as I do
[04:17] <OptiPlex> besides... Ubuntu likes her digital camera and it has TETRIS *the trump card* :D
[04:18] <intelikey> and it's probably warez xp at that.
[04:18] <cavalry> how can I get a list of users that have never logged in?
[04:18] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: do i have to have the network cable attached to the computer? because i notice its doing a ping or whatever.
[04:18] <Ca[M] eL> i'm not using a network here.
[04:18] <OptiPlex> intelikey: it came with her computer :[ I tried my XP Pro bootleg but her computer came with a DVD full of drivers/crap
[04:18] <OptiPlex> ..and I can get XP Pro legit free too. *contradictory*
[04:19] <intelikey>  /kill NightVision
[04:19] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: you said your modem is ethernet ....
[04:19] <NightVision> lol
[04:19] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: its dsl.
[04:20] <Xenguy> Ca[M] eL: pppoe ?
[04:20] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: dsl is a phone line, it goes to a modem, and the modem plugs into the computer somewhow
[04:20] <OptiPlex> speaking of M$, there is ONE class in my school's IT dept. that is dedicated to linux
[04:20] <leetbox> hello, has anyone built stepmania 4.0 cvs for ubuntu?
[04:20] <Sashi> a question
[04:20] <OptiPlex> there are like 7 classes on M$ server 03, Im switching majors tomorrow..
[04:20] <Sashi> i have a partition and im on the LiveCD
[04:20] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: ahaha, i know, remember i'm a windows user, i know absolutely nothing. which is why i wanna stop using windows, so i don't get into situations like this =)
[04:21] <beuno> Ca[M] eL : you have to use pppoe
[04:21] <Sashi> how do i mount the FS so its write too?
[04:21] <Ca[M] eL> beuno: i have no idea what pppoe is.
[04:21] <OptiPlex> Ca(M)eL: the first time I used linux I had to spend $30 on a modem
[04:21] <onkarshinde> HPlease tell me. Has anyone faced problem of deleted package list (uni, multi) in synaptic? I have to apt-get update on every reboot
[04:21] <theoddbot> beuno: it depends, some modems are smart and run a half-bridge, unwrap the ppp packets and dump them out the ethernet
[04:21] <Elock> How can I verify my JRE is installed correctly?
[04:21] <OptiPlex> in 4 yrs of linux, that's ALL I've spent on conversion fees :]
[04:21] <beuno> Ca[M] eL type:  pppoe      in the console
[04:21] <Ca[M] eL> beuno: k
[04:21] <OptiPlex> onkarshinde: did you deselect the repositories manually?
[04:21] <bur[n] er> Ca[M] eL: better yet... "man pppoe"
[04:21] <Sashi> anyone?
[04:22] <beuno> heh
[04:22] <Ca[M] eL> beuno: command not found
[04:22] <onkarshinde> OptiPlex: What do you mean?
[04:22] <Ca[M] eL> no manual entry for pppoe
[04:22] <beuno> ok then:  apt-get install pppoe
[04:22] <Sashi> eh?
[04:22] <bur[n] er> Ca[M] eL: u have DSL that plugs directly to your PC?  there's no DSL modem or router?
[04:22] <theoddbot> sudo pppoeconf
[04:22] <Sashi> i mean
[04:22] <theoddbot> maybe
[04:22] <Sashi> to mount it
[04:22] <OptiPlex> like.. when they updated did you unclick them in the drop-down menu?
[04:22] <Sashi> so its write-acess
[04:22] <OptiPlex> ..because I did that, but that was just DUMB :|
[04:22] <intelikey> is it ntfs ?
[04:22] <Ca[M] eL> bur[n] er: phone jack -> modem -> network wire -> network card
[04:22] <Sashi> yea
[04:22] <OptiPlex> mount -t /dev/hdaX /windows
[04:22] <bur[n] er> Ca[M] eL: u don't need pppoe
[04:23] <Sashi> alrighty
[04:23] <Sashi> thc
[04:23] <OptiPlex> i know this one...
[04:23] <Ramoned> ok
[04:23] <Ramoned> checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[04:23] <Ramoned> See `config.log' for more details.
[04:23] <OptiPlex> sudo network-admin
[04:23] <onkarshinde> OptiPlex: I don't understand what drop down menu you are talking about. I hand edited sources.list file
[04:23] <Ramoned> its just me or ubuntu have several permissions problems ?
[04:23] <Ca[M] eL> beuno: permission denied, and unable to lock the list directory
[04:23] <bur[n] er> permissions problems?
[04:23] <theoddbot> Ramoned: something like: apt-get install binutils-dev
[04:23] <intelikey> Sashi ntfs write under linux is hap hazard at best.
[04:23] <beuno> ramoned: its just you
[04:23] <OptiPlex> onkarshinde: oh well, i guess I didn't think of that :]
[04:23] <ithiel> Ramoned, stop using sudo for GUI programs
[04:23] <Shadowline> anyone here use xawtv ?
[04:24] <Ramoned> i am not using sudo
[04:24] <Mabus06> what is a good program to make .iso files from folders?
[04:24] <Ramoned> i am logged in as root
[04:24] <fbafelipe> how do I set an environment variable?
[04:24] <OptiPlex> Kino any good?
[04:24] <bur[n] er> Mabus06: graveman?
[04:24] <Ca[M] eL> theoddbot: should i type sudo pppoeconf ?
[04:24] <beuno> Ca[M] eL  sorry, its pppoeconfig   but burner seems to think you dont need it, so I dont know
[04:24] <OptiPlex> Mabus06: k3b or cdbakeoven are good, dunno if cdbakeoven is in ubuntu though
[04:24] <beuno> Ca[M] eL  yes
[04:24] <Elock> Note sure if my question was missed or the answer unknown but... How can I tell if my java runtime environment is installed correctly on Hoary?(I can't get azureus to work, and I'm not sure I set up java properly)
[04:24] <Mabus06> ok bur[n] er and what about a program to mount isos?
[04:24] <theoddbot> Ca[M] eL: give it a shot, i've not tried it
[04:24] <Ca[M] eL> found 1 ethernet device
[04:25] <intelikey> Sashi if possable use a fat32 partition for access from linux and windows.   that is the safe way.
[04:25] <onkarshinde> Ca[M] eL: What are you trying to do? If it is DSL then sudo pppoeconf
[04:25] <mobus> I forgot the name of the plugin for xmms that allows you to use it as an alarm clock.  Does anyone remember the name? and is it in synaptic?
[04:25] <mobus> anyone?
[04:25] <Ca[M] eL> onkarshinde: i'm trying to get ubuntu to recognize my internet, so i can use it, rather than sit on this laptop trying to get the net to work
[04:25] <Ramoned> theoddbot no binutils-dev
[04:25] <Sashi> ack
[04:25] <beuno> Mabus06 linux mounts isos just like they where a hardrive  try this:  sudo mkdir /media/iso
[04:25] <Ramoned> didnt helped
[04:25] <Sashi> mount -t /dev/hda1
[04:25] <beuno> then sudo modprobe loop
[04:26] <beuno> then
[04:26] <onkarshinde> Ca[M] eL: Is it DSL?
[04:26] <Sashi> doesnt work
[04:26] <beuno> sudo mount file.iso /media/iso/ -t iso9660 -o loop
[04:26] <Ca[M] eL> beuno: k, it found the device.
[04:26] <Cole> hey does anyone know if Ubuntu is going to offer a pre-built vmware virtual machine?
[04:26] <beuno> Ca[M] eL   great!  : )
[04:26] <OptiPlex> anyone ever use Kino?
[04:26] <Ca[M] eL> beuno: its doin some stuff now
[04:26] <Ca[M] eL> onkarshinde: yes
[04:26] <Sashi> ?
[04:26] <beuno> stuff is good
[04:26] <fbafelipe> how do I set an environment variable?
[04:26] <Xenguy> fbafelipe: set
[04:27] <onkarshinde> Ca[M] eL: pppoeconf is simplest way to configure
[04:27] <fanopnaic> fbafelipe: export VAR=foo
[04:27] <Ca[M] eL> alright
[04:27] <intelikey> Sashi where do you want it mounted "sudo mount /dev/hda1 <mount_point> "   you must supply a mount point.
[04:27] <beuno> fbafelipe:   http://www.ubuntuguide.org/#setsystem-wideenvironmentvariables
[04:27] <Xenguy> fbafelipe: what fanopnaic said works
[04:27] <Ca[M] eL> i figure i have to stick this network connection into the other box
[04:27] <Ca[M] eL> cuz it was looking for it
[04:27] <fbafelipe> i want to configure the system to configure automatic...
[04:27] <Ca[M] eL> good idea?
[04:28] <beuno> yes, please re do the whole thing with the network plugged in so it can find your modem
[04:28] <Ca[M] eL> alright
[04:28] <Ca[M] eL> brb
[04:28] <beuno> k
[04:28] <beuno> and now, I insist
[04:28] <beuno> still cant get the ATI drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?
[04:28] <Mabus06> OptiPlex, bur[n] er, beuno... graveman can't burn iso files from folders, any suggestions?\
[04:28] <OptiPlex> I suggested K3B of cdbakeoven for burning .isos
[04:29] <Xenguy> fbafelipe: set the configuration in ~/.bash_profile
[04:29] <r00723r0> hi
[04:29] <OptiPlex> or..
[04:29] <beuno> Mabus06 have you tried this:  http://www.ubuntuguide.org/#cddvdburning   ?
[04:29] <onkarshinde> Is it possible to resize /usr partition from withng ubuntu session?
[04:29] <r00723r0> i cant set up my wireless
[04:29] <Mabus06> cdbakeoven is not on ubuntu
[04:29] <r00723r0> how can i set up my wireless?
[04:29] <OptiPlex> Mabus06: k3b?
[04:29] <Mabus06> !wifi
[04:29] <ubotu> wifi is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[04:29] <onkarshinde> beuno: which ATI card?
[04:29] <OptiPlex> it owns
[04:29] <theoddbot> onkarshinde: if you mount it readonly and pray
[04:29] <onkarshinde> theoddbot: Ok. Thanks
[04:29] <beuno> onkarshinde Ati Radeon Mobility 9100 U3 (R200 IGP)
[04:29] <Mabus06> OptiPlex, is that for gnome or not?
[04:29] <theoddbot> actually, i dont think parted will touch it if its mounted
[04:29] <OptiPlex> wild guess on time to DL kde on 28.8? :]
[04:30] <OptiPlex> k3b is kde :[
[04:30] <r00723r0> how can i set up my wireless card?
[04:30] <onkarshinde> beuno: Sorry I have to go. Electricity gone
[04:30] <OptiPlex> I should request CD's of Kubuntu Breezy
[04:30] <Sashi> its cuz
[04:30] <jbroome> good reason to leave
[04:30] <beuno> just my luck...
[04:30] <OptiPlex> or whatever the K version is called
[04:30] <Sashi> hmmm
[04:30] <Cole> hey does anyone know if Ubuntu is going to offer a pre-built vmware virtual machine?
[04:30] <fbafelipe> Xengu: I already edited .bash_profile, when I open the console the variable is set, but when I exec a script it's not
[04:31] <fanopnaic> fbafelipe: .bash_profile is only executed by login shells. you need .bashrc for interactive shells.
[04:31] <Xenguy> fbafelipe: hmmm, not sure about that kind of requirement
[04:31] <nba> anybody pls., can't play mp3 in my linux ubuntu hoary, wat shall i do
[04:31] <r00723r0> how can i set up my wireless card?
[04:31] <beuno> nba is this a fresh install?
[04:31] <Mabus06> thanks for the link beuno
[04:32] <synapsis_> hey its Ca[M] eL
[04:32] <synapsis_> thanks for your help
[04:32] <synapsis_> it works =D
[04:32] <synapsis_> i'm so pleased
[04:32] <fbafelipe> I already edited .bashrc too
[04:32] <beuno> Mabus06:  your welcome
[04:32] <OptiPlex> woot!
[04:32] <intelikey> fbafelipe try /etc/profile ?
[04:32] <fanopnaic> fbafelipe: which is why you should put it into .bashrc, because .bash_profile includes .bashrc, and therefore you have it in both kinds of shells.
[04:32] <theoddbot> ha cool synapsis_
[04:32] <beuno> synapsis_   your welcome too  :)
[04:32] <synapsis_> seriously, i'm so pumped now
[04:32] <fanopnaic> hmmm.
[04:32] <nba> beuno: ther's an error msg, can't play parse
[04:32] <Victor_jiang> Who is the chairman to Community Council ?
[04:32] <fbafelipe> I edited /etc/profile too
[04:32] <synapsis_> i've been waiting for this since 12 =P
[04:32] <beuno> things are easier the they seem
[04:32] <raydio> how do I change permissions on windows partitions ?
[04:33] <intelikey> fbafelipe also ls -l /bin/sh   and see if it is bash or dash  that may be why.
[04:33] <r00723r0> how can i set up my wireless card damnit
[04:33] <beuno> nba  have you ever been able to play mp3's?
[04:33] <r00723r0> there is no sit0
[04:33] <synapsis_> now i'm gunna try and get amsn kickin
[04:33] <nba> beuno: nope
[04:33] <dooglus> it's best not to put it in .bashrc.  .bashrc gets run every time you run a shell, which is a waste.
[04:33] <mobus> I just downloaded and installed gcc from apt-get, and when I tried to install a program it says gcc cannot create executables.  how do I fix this?
[04:33] <nba> beuno: but it plays on audio cd
[04:33] <beuno> synapsis_  Im a fan of Gaim, but have fun!
[04:33] <dooglus> mobus: install build-essential
[04:33] <fbafelipe> its bash
[04:33] <fanopnaic> fbafelipe: did you prepend a $ ? because that would be wrong :)
[04:33] <synapsis_> beuno: seriously...
[04:33] <nba> beuno: not mp3's
[04:34] <beuno> nba:  take a look at:    http://www.ubuntuguide.org/
[04:34] <theoddbot> mobus: try apt-get install build-essentials
[04:34] <Victor_jiang> Nobody knows about it?
[04:34] <synapsis_> beuno: whats the difference?  any place you'd recommend for me to check before i install?
[04:34] <fbafelipe> no, i didint put $
[04:34] <dooglus> fbafelipe: did you use 'export'?
[04:34] <fbafelipe> yes
[04:34] <beuno> synapsis_  no,  sudo apt-get install amsn should do it
[04:34] <nba> beuno: thanks
[04:35] <mobus> dooglus: so far its working
[04:35] <dooglus> fbafelipe: if you run a shell and type "env | grep whatever-your-variable-is-called", do you see it?
[04:35] <beuno> synapsis_   most of the stuff you should be able to install with apt-get
[04:35] <intelikey> so is sh pointed at bash or dash fbafelipe ?
[04:35] <r00723r0> can someone help with my wireless
[04:35] <beuno> did you take a look at:  http://www.ubuntuguide.org/  ?
[04:35] <r00723r0> please
[04:35] <mobus> I fixed the gcc problem but there's bound to be another with my luck
[04:35] <beuno> nba :  welcome  : )
[04:35] <fbafelipe> dooglus: its dont send any ansower
[04:35] <beuno> still cant get the ATI drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?
[04:35] <fbafelipe> its pointed at bash
[04:35] <dooglus> fbafelipe: what does "ps | grep $$" tell you?
[04:35] <synapsis_> beuno: i assume that you encourage me to get friendly with the prompt?
[04:36] <Mr_singha> can someone please help me....i cant seem to get bittorrent to run.....
[04:36] <fbafelipe> 10688 pts/0    00:00:00 bash
[04:36] <dooglus> fbafelipe: what does "grep your-variable-name ~/.bashrc" tell you?
[04:36] <beuno> synapsis_  yes, very much, although Synaptic can do the apt-get stuff for you, Im a fan of the console
[04:36] <beuno> don't think you can live in linux without it
[04:36] <r00723r0> someone help me damnit
[04:36] <beuno> Mr_singha  any specific client?
[04:36] <fbafelipe> no ansower
[04:36] <r00723r0> how do i set up wireless
[04:37] <mobus> ok now it says I don't have glib, but synaptic says I do
[04:37] <dooglus> fbafelipe: so the line's not in your .bashrc.
[04:37] <beuno> r00723r0  what wireless card do you have?
[04:37] <Duelus> how do I get azures from synaptic?
[04:37] <Mr_singha> ???
[04:37] <r00723r0> belkin
[04:37] <dooglus> put the "export VAR=value" in your ~/.gnomerc and restart gnome.
[04:37] <fbafelipe> I am trying to edit the variable PATH
[04:37] <r00723r0> wireless g+
[04:37] <beuno> Duelus  are you on breezy?
[04:37] <Duelus> beuno Yes
[04:37] <Mr_singha> yes
[04:37] <fbafelipe> i tryed, bvut i already removed
[04:37] <synapsis_> beuno: i'm learning that very fast =)
[04:38] <dooglus> fbafelipe: you can put something like "export PATH=/home/chris/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/X11R6/bin" in your ~/.bashrc
[04:38] <beuno> Duelus  bad news, azureus aint working out of the box for breezy, you have to manually install jse 1.5 and download the azureus deb...  its a loooong process and I cant seem to find the url right now, i recommend googling
[04:38] <fbafelipe> i want to include the binaries of java into the path
[04:38] <r00723r0> beuno, belkin wireless g+
[04:38] <synapsis_> i'm trying to figure out how to get hooked into the 'universe' thing
[04:38] <Duelus> ok
[04:38] <fbafelipe> in slackware i just edit /etc/profile and it work...
[04:38] <mobus> agh where do I get a working bersion of glob?
[04:38] <jah_raztah> this is ubuntu
[04:38] <dooglus> fbafelipe: in breezy you just edit the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf thing and it work the same way
[04:39] <beuno> r00723r0  what does "ifconfig" spit out?
[04:39] <r00723r0> lemme check
[04:39] <mobus> someone where can I get glib 1.2.6 or better?
[04:39] <dooglus> fbafelipe: that is a system-wide change.  edit the "DefaultPath=" in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[04:39] <NightVision> is there a .deb of gstreamer0.8 somewhere?
[04:39] <fbafelipe> ok, i will try it, thanks
[04:39] <beuno> still cant get the ATI Moble 9100 drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?
[04:40] <dooglus> does anyone know how I can delete the last 500 bytes of every file in a directory?
[04:40] <theoddbot> dooglus: some dd magic maybe
[04:41] <dooglus> theoddbot: good idea, thanks.
[04:41] <theoddbot> dooglus: if you can do it for 1 file the rest is easy :)
[04:41] <dooglus> theoddbot: sure
[04:41] <theoddbot> ah head or tail maybe
[04:41] <mobus> http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/4513
[04:41] <OptiPlex> ok now Im scared.. 15MB download on dialup
[04:41] <OptiPlex> ...be seeing you in several hours.
[04:41] <mobus> please someone help me fix this
[04:41] <dooglus> theoddbot: head -c -n <size-500> would do it - but how do you find the size?
[04:42] <misfit_toybuntu> yoi
[04:42] <theoddbot> dooglus: head -c -n -500
[04:42] <misfit_toybuntu> why is nickserv so ignorant sometimes...demanding recognition when you already have it? duh.
[04:42] <theoddbot> oh
[04:42] <theoddbot> head -c -500
[04:42] <dooglus> theoddbot: that will give me the first 500 bytes...
[04:42] <beuno> still cant get the ATI Moble 9100 drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?
[04:43] <dooglus> theoddbot: I want all bytes except the last 500
[04:43] <theoddbot> dooglus: then tail -c -500
[04:43] <theoddbot> except tail doesnt seem to have the -
[04:43] <theoddbot> crazy
[04:45] <dooglus> theoddbot: that will give me the last 500 bytes.  I want the rest.
[04:45] <theoddbot> dooglus: yep
[04:45] <Cole> he wants from 1 until 500 from the end
[04:45] <leetbox> anyone with stepmania building experience?
[04:46] <theoddbot> Cole: yeah, its tricky :)
[04:46] <Cole> theoddbot: how do you get the size of a file in bytes?
[04:46] <theoddbot> use perl lol
[04:46] <dooglus> theoddbot: I found a way:    for i in *; do head -c$(($(stat -c%s "$i")-500)) "$i" > $i.chopped; done
[04:46] <synapsis_> i'm looking to install amsn, but it says that other packages will be affected, will this in any way upset/screw up other programs?
[04:47] <theoddbot> ah stat, i was looking for fstat
[04:47] <tiann> i am net-installing ubuntu and keep getting 'temp failure resolving ca.archive.ubuntu.com' how do i change to another one in the installation process?
[04:47] <dooglus> theoddbot: I didn't know about $((...)) in bash either.  that's a nice trick :)
[04:48] <theoddbot> $() is the same as `` but you can nest them :)
[04:48] <Cole> dooglus: may i ask why you want to crop all of the files?
[04:48] <dooglus> theoddbot: no, I knew about $().  I didn't know about $(())
[04:48] <dooglus> theoddbot: $() is for process substitution.  $(()) is for arithmetic substitution.
[04:48] <theoddbot> yep
[04:49] <varsendagger> what does tail do?
[04:49] <dooglus> Cole: I was using bitcomet to download some stuff.  it stopped working halfway through a download.  I'm left with lots of partially downloaded files.  each one has a .bc! extension and 508 bytes of crap on the end of it, which azureus refuses to resume for me.
[04:49] <theoddbot> ha
[04:49] <Cole> ahh i c..
[04:49] <synapsis_> anyone? i'm looking to install amsn, but it says that other packages will be affected, will this in any way upset/screw up other programs?
[04:50] <bnD> wow, ive never used gaim for irc, how interesting it is
[04:50] <dooglus> Cole: azureus tells me the files are too big.  If I chop the 508 bytes of crap off the end and remove the .bc! extension then azureus will be happy
[04:50] <bnD> irc buddy list, wee
[04:50] <bnD> hey dooglus, hows it going
[04:50] <dooglus> hey bnD.  how was dinner?
[04:50] <bnD> dooglus: lol tasty
[04:50] <theoddbot> synapsis_: on mine it asks to install 6 others, is i the same for you ?
[04:50] <Cole> dooglus: yeah i get it.. thats wierd that bc us does that
[04:50] <theoddbot> synapsis_: if so dont worry, it will be fine
[04:51] <dooglus> Cole: I guess it uses it for some kind of sanity checking, so save having to do a complete hash-check when resuming
[04:51] <varsendagger> i wnat to tail something what does it do? how di i do it?
[04:51] <r00723r0_> sorry, beuno
[04:51] <Cole> dooglus: yeah i've always just used azureus
[04:51] <r00723r0_> it gives me lo
[04:51] <theoddbot> varsendagger: prints out the last 10 lines of the file
[04:51] <r00723r0_> and thats it
[04:51] <theoddbot> varsendagger: man tail
[04:52] <r00723r0_> obviously, i cant switch computers on the fly
[04:52] <r00723r0_> oh shit
[04:52] <r00723r0_> can i have help with my wireless?
[04:52] <LeeJunFan> what's the standard way to force a module to load on boot with the current modprobe.d setup?
[04:52] <r00723r0_> i have a belkin wireless g+
[04:53] <theoddbot> LeeJunFan: /etc/modules i think
[04:53] <r00723r0_> i tried lspci, the only thing close to that is "unknown device"
[04:53] <r00723r0_> my ifconfig only shows lo
[04:54] <r00723r0_> can i have help with my wireless?
[04:54] <theoddbot> r00723r0_: you probably need ndiswrapper voodoo
[04:54] <r00723r0_> what?
[04:54] <r00723r0_> what si that
[04:55] <r00723r0_> *is
[04:55] <LeeJunFan> cool, though maybe that changed. thanks
[04:55] <bnD> anyone recommend a package for use with downloading large attachments from usenet? ie(GB's at a time?)
[04:55] <synapsis_> theodd: says could not mark all packages for installation or upgrade =(
[04:55] <theoddbot> r00723r0_: it wraps the windows wireless drivers so you can use them for linux
[04:55] <beuno> still cant get the ATI Moble 9100 drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?
[04:56] <theoddbot> r00723r0: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Ubuntu
[04:56] <r00723r0> theoddbot, apt-get install ndiswrapper ?
[04:56] <theoddbot> r00723r0: try it, i've only done it once
[04:57] <synapsis_> theoddbot: should i try apt-get install amsn ?
[04:57] <alpha> anyone here have an amd64bit cpu and running 32bit ubuntu newest build?
[04:57] <r00723r0> damnit tell me
[04:57] <r00723r0> i have 3 minutes
[04:57] <varsendagger> how do i make xcaht transparent?
[04:57] <theoddbot> synapsis_: sure
[04:57] <theoddbot> alpha: i'm busy trying to get one to be stable in 64bit :)
[04:57] <alpha> my rtc seems to run about 1.5x faster then it should and my battery dislpay wont work
[04:57] <varsendagger> nevermind'
[04:58] <thewayofzen> varsendagger,  Settings >  Interface > Text box > transparent background
[04:58] <bnD> hey guys? there is a package called "childsplay" for younger linux users, however it doesnt make a shortcut under "games" and apparently has to be started by typing childsplay from terminal, any recommendations on some short of shortcut for my lil brother to be able to start it himself?
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> alpha,  what cpu? (I just got here)
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> if its a Turion :P i know the fix.
[04:58] <alpha> theoddbot, i gave up on 64bit too many packages weren't available
[04:58] <alpha> Dr_Willis, turion
[04:58] <thewayofzen> bnD,  use smeg menu editor to add a selection for the bin?
[04:58] <theoddbot> alpha: thanks for the heads up
[04:58] <synapsis_> theoddbot: doesn't seem to want to install the program, any idea what i can do?
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> alpha,  Heh --- :P good guess on my part eh.
[04:58] <theoddbot> synapsis_: whats it say
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> alpha,  thers a kernel option that will fix the clock.. but i think it may disable the apci.
[04:59] <bnD> thewayofzen, ok thanks ;P
[04:59] <alpha> Dr_Willis, it scews up my sound buffer
[04:59] <theoddbot> bnD: you should be able to right click on the menu to edit it
[04:59] <synapsis_> permission denied
[04:59] <thewayofzen> bnd: in breezy  Applications > System tools > Application menu editor
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> alpha,  let me fire up my laptop and see. (its also proberly documented in the wikis)
[04:59] <bnD> thewayofzen, :) thanks
[04:59] <dooglus> bnD: right-click on the panel, pick 'add to panel', then 'custom app launcher' and 'add'.  fill in the boxes.
[04:59] <thewayofzen> bnD,  :) np.
[04:59] <alpha> Dr_Willis, the noapic switch?
[04:59] <bnD> lol thanks to you too dooglus :)
[04:59] <misfit_toybuntu> amazing the services that are still "auto" started on a distro...like rsync, etc...that the average user would never touch, I just sped up my boot time by like 30 seconds disabling services not needed.
[04:59] <theoddbot> alpha: what annoying packages in particular ?
[04:59] <dooglus> bnD: depends whether you want a menu entry or an icon on the panel
[05:00] <alpha> theoddbot, mp3 decoders, dvd umm lots :P
[05:00] <Duelus> ATTRACT WOMEN anytime, anywhere without rejection... free tips>.
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> alpha,  i am also using the 'nolapic' option
[05:00] <alpha> theoddbot, w32codec won't work
[05:00] <theoddbot> alpha: mplayer works ok here, but i like to build my own anyway
[05:00] <bnD> dooglus, looks like thewayofzen's method is the one for me in this situaiton, nice to know both items of information tho :)
[05:00] <theoddbot> yeah i'm aware of w32codec
[05:01] <theoddbot> actually 64bit is stable just not k8-smp
[05:01] <alpha> Dr_Willis, when i do the nolapic option the sound buffer just keeps repeating itself
[05:01] <theoddbot> trying <IP_ADDRESS> see if it helps
[05:01] <dooglus> ok.  explain this:    $ i='foo.bc!'     $ echo "$i"    -> no output!
[05:01] <alpha> Dr_Willis, what laptop?
[05:01] <Dr_Willis> alpha,  no clue there. i use both the noapic and nolapic - got a Compaq V2311
[05:01] <alpha> Dr_Willis, i have an Acer ferrari 4000
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> could be some differance in the chipstes I guess.
[05:02] <alpha> Dr_Willis, mine has an ati chipset i think you have a sis?
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> I got an ati x200m video card
[05:02] <alpha> ahh
[05:02] <alpha> yeah i have a x700
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> and YES i did get the ati drivers going for it.
[05:03] <alpha> hehe
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> Mine was $500 :P after rebates
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> not a bad laptop for the low end.
[05:03] <alpha> i went for the size, battery life and graphics card
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> I went for the cheap.  :P
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> Been playing Civ4 a little lately
[05:04] <alpha> before this laptop i had a compaq 2170
[05:04] <Davey> I don't think I could run linux on my laptop without a butt load of hassle
[05:05] <alpha> 2500+ bartion with a 320m chipset
[05:05] <alpha> it run gentoo and ubuntu fine
[05:05] <Davey> Mines an Athlon64 3800+
[05:05] <Davey> it kicks *ass*
[05:05] <alpha> mines the same speed as a 3200+
[05:05] <Davey> I tried the livecd, that failed, so I stuck with windows, its my gaming box :)
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> heh - ive had several live cd's not like this laptop
[05:06] <BoneE> what ways can i make my OS run faster when i play videos
[05:06] <BoneE> its lags
[05:06] <beuno> still cant get the ATI Moble 9100 drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?
[05:06] <BoneE> i have 1gb ram and 2.53 P4
[05:06] <theoddbot> BoneE: video drivers probably
[05:06] <Davey> BoneE, turned on DMA?
[05:06] <BoneE> i got that driver
[05:06] <BoneE> its videos on the computer
[05:06] <theoddbot> BoneE: which video player do you use
[05:06] <Davey> !dma
[05:07] <BoneE> !dma
[05:07] <alpha> most intergrated ati chipsets before the "x" series are a pain to get direct rendering going
[05:08] <alpha> to get my 320m i had to patch the driver or the binary ati driver wouldn't work
[05:08] <beuno> alpha dont tell me that, I just bought this laptop yesterday because it had a nice ati card...
[05:08] <Davey> lol
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> some would argue the  'nice ati'  part. :P
[05:08] <alpha> 320m is also the same as a 7500m depending on who makes it
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> i actually look for nvdia in the laptops i get... but theres VERY few that have any nvidia these days it seems.
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> sadly.
[05:09] <alpha> i like ati for games and tv out put... but for linux....
[05:09] <beuno> alpha  where can I get more info on patching the driver or whatever gets me closer to getting it working?
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> games are for the weak! :P
[05:09] <alpha> as well the ati chipsets and gpus have better powersaving
[05:09] <synapsis_> i downloaded amsn, however i don't even have permission to create a directory
[05:10] <beuno> Dr_Willis I couldnt find any decent laptops with nvidia
[05:10] <Davey> you think ATI is bad for linux? try it with dual monitors. UGH
[05:10] <theoddbot> synapsis_: what are you trying to do ?
[05:10] <alpha> beuno, hit up linux
[05:10] <alpha> ups
[05:10] <deus_> I cant start the DCOPserver
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> beuno,  yep.. thats problem. :(
[05:10] <alpha> i mean google
[05:10] <lancer285> is there a program to convert .ogg to mp3?
[05:10] <theoddbot> synapsis_: apt-get install asmn   then press enter
[05:10] <deus_> Before all i had todo was to delete the .ICEauth file
[05:10] <deus_> but the file isnt there
[05:10] <beuno> yes, all links under ubuntu ati or anything related are visited
[05:10] <beuno> :)
[05:10] <deus_> why isnt a new file being created?
[05:10] <sedition> has anyone had any luck with the dwl-250 and 5.10?
[05:11] <synapsis_> theoddbot: E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[05:11] <synapsis_> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[05:11] <alpha> beuno, this is why i hate intergraded video... aways a pain
[05:11] <theoddbot> synapsis_: sudo apt-get install asmn   then press enter
[05:11] <bob832> does anyone know where the keyboard shortcut conf files are stored in gnome?
[05:11] <synapsis_> whats sudo?
[05:11] <theoddbot> sudo runs commands as the root account, like the windows administrator
[05:12] <alpha> beuno, my x700 took me about 5 min to get going with full ati binary fgx drivers
[05:12] <beuno> alpha yes, I agree, but I bought it yesterday, so im stuck with this for a few months at least
[05:12] <beuno> yeah, I got all the other nvidia ones running in a few min too
[05:12] <alpha> ether way. i want to get my battery and clock in order
[05:12] <alpha> anyone have an idea how to get them going?
[05:13] <cfh_dev> What's a good pptp client to connect to a windows network?
[05:13] <rain`> Anyone know what a UM-4 battery is?
[05:13] <synapsis_> theoddbot: The following packages have unmet dependencies: amsn: Depends: imlib1 but it is not installable Depends: sox but it is not going to be installed Depends: libpng10-0 but it is not installable E: Broken package
[05:13] <ubuntu> dabaR: you still alive? it's me with the nvidia thing again. got another problem - this one's huge.
[05:13] <me|ong> anybody here?
[05:13] <theoddbot> gah
[05:13] <synapsis_> =)
[05:14] <me|ong> whats the root default password
[05:14] <theoddbot> synapsis_: sudo apt-get update
[05:14] <me|ong> i was installing it and i couldnt su to root
[05:14] <SEJeff> me|ong, sudo -s and type your user password
[05:14] <cfh_dev> me|ong: you can use sudo
[05:14] <Davey> This is my laptop: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&lang=en&cc=us&product=500267&dlc=en&docname=c00392210 :D
[05:14] <me|ong> never asked for a root password either
[05:14] <deus_> *restates his question*
[05:14] <synapsis_> theoddbot: done
[05:14] <me|ong> hmm
[05:14] <theoddbot> synapsis_: try again
[05:15] <synapsis_> theoddbot: same thing
[05:15] <SEJeff> me|ong: the root account is disabled for security reasons. Use sudo and type your user password. Only users of the admin group can use sudo
[05:15] <me|ong> well i had tried to update the drivers for my old ati 7x00 card cuz i was stuck with 640x480
[05:15] <me|ong> wouldnt let me
[05:15] <linlin> hey how do i install an SMP kernel (multi cpu) onto ubuntu?
[05:15] <me|ong> hmm
[05:15] <Davey> Is there a GUI (or better yet, toolbar/systray) app for APC UPSs?
[05:15] <theoddbot> synapsis_: run synaptic and and make sure its got something other than your cd listed
[05:15] <me|ong> weird i tried :S lol
[05:15] <linlin> uname -r shows no mention of SMP
[05:15] <me|ong> bah well reinstalling now.. thought id ask cuz i found it weird
[05:15] <theoddbot> linlin: run synaptic and install linux smp image for your system
[05:15] <linlin> i dont have gui
[05:15] <linlin> running as a server
[05:16] <SEJeff> me|ong: Why are you reinstalling?
[05:16] <me|ong> changed vid card
[05:16] <me|ong> went with nvidia ti 4200 :)
[05:16] <me|ong> it was gonan be setup for gaming later anyways.. so when i switched form the old ati to the ti 4200 it said the vid was messed
[05:16] <Davey> you don't need to reinstall cause of that
[05:16] <sedition> me|ong - sudo passwd root
[05:16] <SEJeff> linlin: apt-cache search smp will show you linux-686-smp as one of the options
[05:16] <me|ong> still somewhat new to linux .. didnt have time to go nuts fixing it all
[05:17] <me|ong> sedition
[05:17] <SEJeff> linlin: So sudo apt-get install linux-686-smp should do the trick for you
[05:17] <synapsis_> theoddbot: how can i tell if my cd is listed?
[05:17] <me|ong> i know how to sudo ;) thanks though.. I'm a rookie not a noob so i got some exp under the belt
[05:17] <me|ong> plus been a while since i played with it
[05:17] <SEJeff> me|ong: Define experience
[05:17] <SEJeff> me|ong: If less than a few years, you're still a noob :)
[05:17] <me|ong> playing wiht it in class )they made us use zandros :S)
[05:18] <sedition> "sudo passwd root" will give you the more tradional root account
[05:18] <me|ong> lol.. well i consider myself a bit of a rookie :)
[05:19] <me|ong> heh
[05:19] <me|ong> aw shit!
[05:19] <me|ong> hit the wrong key when i was supposed to choose reso optiosn i wanted :S
[05:19] <ubuntu> I especially admit it while looking at that freaking grub prompt and wondering why aptitude caused a kernel panic.
[05:19] <beuno> cant get the ATI Moble 9100 drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?
[05:19] <me|ong> gah too many machines on the go lol
[05:19] <me|ong> bueno
[05:19] <Dr_Willis> MESA? ya mean VESA?
[05:19] <me|ong> word to wise with linux..
[05:19] <me|ong> try not to use ati ;) specially if new
[05:20] <beuno> OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
[05:20] <me|ong> theri drivers arent the best supported.. even for windows sadly
[05:20] <Ron_o> hey all.
[05:20] <beuno> me|ong somehow I always hear those things once I spent 2k on  a laptop  : )
[05:20] <ubuntu> lo Ron
[05:20] <me|ong> lol
[05:21] <Pablo> hi Ron_o
[05:21] <mgcross> Hi all...proiblem I can't find a solution to: I'm running 5.10 and play Enemy Territory. The game works just fine, but crashes with a signal 11 if I try to host a game...no info on the wiki or web forums that seems to apply..
[05:21] <me|ong> always shop first and ask questions before you drop money
[05:21] <Ron_o> I finally got Ubuntu up and working... it's working great.
[05:21] <me|ong> eww redhat
[05:21] <beuno> me|ong I had read around that ppl where getting ATI cards working...
[05:21] <me|ong> why buy a copy.. you only pay for the support
[05:21] <me|ong> yeah you can get them working. try the ATI website
[05:22] <me|ong> they have drivers there for linux for cards 8500 +
[05:22] <ubuntu> at least rh will install properly instead of the clusterfuck I've been through this weekend trying to get ubuntu up.
[05:22] <synapsis_> ubuntu: that sucks, however i'm finding windows to be really easy to use compared to ubuntu so far =(
[05:22] <me|ong> bah
[05:22] <beuno> me|ong dled the driver, installed it, still cant get my card to use it
[05:22] <me|ong> windows = easy
[05:22] <me|ong> but a bitch
[05:22] <me|ong> its loves to fuckup
[05:22] <Ron_o> I noticed that my download speeds have increased from Windows..
[05:22] <ubuntu> windows sucks arse synapsis_.   I have ubuntu 5.10, and I created a new user with default group "users". How do I grant administrative rights to this user? it is already a member of adm group, but it cannot set network settings.
[05:23] <beuno> aaah  :)
[05:23] <damian__> ok guys, the easy question I never remember the answer. I want to connect my ubuntu machine with my winxp machine. What to do?
[05:23] <beuno> yeah
[05:23] <beuno> its brand new
[05:23] <me|ong> damian__
[05:23] <me|ong> samba
[05:23] <beuno> 9100 Mobility
[05:23] <Dr_Willis> depends on WHAT you want to do damian__
[05:23] <me|ong> bue
[05:23] <Mabus06> GausS_, visudo
[05:23] <Dr_Willis> damian__,  you want to acess the shared windows folders?  or what exactly?
[05:23] <deus_> Im trying to install a printer here, its fully supported with the HPijs drivers
[05:23] <me|ong> go to the sight.. they have mobile drivers too ;)
[05:23] <alpha> beuno, the chipsets been out for a while like at least a year
[05:24] <Mabus06> !visudo
[05:24] <ubotu> Mabus06: Are you smoking crack?
[05:24] <Mabus06> !sudo
[05:24] <ubotu> it has been said that sudo is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RootSudo
[05:24] <damian__> Yes , I know I have to use samba, but what i have to edit in the smb.conf? Right now i see my windows machine but I can't see my ubuntu machine in the network
[05:24] <beuno> alpha yeah, well, its not "old" is it?
[05:24] <[linner] > hey ya'll
[05:24] <deus_> When i run the test it keeps printing jibberish, only one line and it wont stope
[05:24] <synapsis_> does ubuntu have a ftp program?  or do i need to install one?
[05:24] <Remmelas> anyone have time to give a hand getting gamepads to work?
[05:25] <deus_> Anybody have any idea on why my printer goes beserk?
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> damian__,  theres a gnome-config item ya gotta run to enable the shareing on ubuntus side.
[05:25] <AzMoo> synapsis_, install one
[05:25] <me|ong> damian__
[05:25] <[linner] > has anyone installed the debian version of Skype?
[05:25] <alpha> beuno, to make it work you need to trick the ati driver into thinking yours is a real gpu by changing the pci id string
[05:25] <me|ong> if you know its ip
[05:25] <synapsis_> azmoo: from where
[05:25] <sedition> synapsis - type ftp in the terminal
[05:25] <damian__> Dr Willis, I want all :) I'm kidding, I want to share the internet connection, the folders and the printer. The internet and th eprinters are hooked to my ubuntu machine
[05:25] <me|ong> just use \\ipaddressituses
[05:25] <AzMoo> synapsis_, synaptic. gftp is in there.
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> damian__,  all it does is edit the smb.conf :P or ya can read a book "Using samba" (online for free) and edit it manually
[05:25] <me|ong> that might open the networked share
[05:25] <AzMoo> synapsis_, or sudo apt-get install gftp
[05:26] <synapsis_> thank you
[05:26] <alpha> beuno, but i can't remeber what or how as its been about 6months since ive done it
[05:26] <damian__> That book it's too long and complicated for a newbie like me
[05:26] <AzMoo> nps
[05:26] <Dr_Willis> damian__,  for shareing the internet - thats part of the ip-masquerading stuff.. ihavent used that in years. so i cant help ya there.
[05:26] <me|ong> damian__
[05:26] <me|ong> no book is too big
[05:26] <me|ong> :)
[05:26] <synapsis_> azmoo:   gftp: Depends: gftp-gtk (= 2.0.18-10) but it is not installable Depends: gftp-text (= 2.0.18-10) but it is not going to be installed
[05:26] <synapsis_> E: Broken packages
[05:26] <beuno> alpha  (googling....)
[05:26] <damian__> Dr. i remeber that once the two machines are in the network you have no problem. I did it before but I can't remember how
[05:26] <synapsis_> i've been having trouble trying to install anything using apt-get
[05:27] <lancer285> guys, what program will rip dvds directly to mpeg 4??
[05:27] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: use aptitude
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> big book? I read through "Using Samba" and by chapter 3 - i knew all i really needed to know.
[05:28] <damian__> I will give a try Dr.
[05:28] <Dr_Willis> Samba is one of those tools that has such a varity of features and 'little quirks' :P
[05:28] <ubuntu> aptitude has made me ill.  anyone got any advice on the grub prompt it left me at and why it'd cause a kernel panic when doing updates/installs?
[05:28] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: what is aptitude
[05:28] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: aptitude is what you should use ...
[05:28] <deus_> I have a printer that goes beserk, it keeps printing one line, i use cups with the hpijs driver. My distro is kubuntu amd64 and i use kprinter to set my printer.
[05:29] <Dr_Willis> deus_,  what printer?
[05:29] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: as in ftp?
[05:29] <deus_> deskjet 840c
[05:29] <deus_> Dr_Willis:
[05:30] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: aptitude is the userspace tool for installing/uninstalling stuff .... apt-get won't automatically resolve deps & fix broken stuff
[05:30] <Dr_Willis> deus_,  Hmm..   could check the cups.org (.com?) page and see wht they sayt about that printer.
[05:30] <RedRose> how do i kill the xserver?
[05:30] <damian__> may be my samba is not working. I will give a try
[05:30] <Dr_Willis> RedRose,  several ways..   kill the gdm service.. or alt-ctrl-backspace
[05:31] <deus_> Dr_Willis: ive been to linuxprinting and its fully supported
[05:31] <NigelS> damian__: what are you trying to do? is linux on the router or?
[05:31] <RedRose> alt-ctrl-backspace will reboot X
[05:31] <Ron_o> and on my system only the lest alt-ctrl does it.
[05:31] <beuno> alpha check out my dmesg | grep fglrx
[05:31] <Dr_Willis> RedRose,  yes.. thats killing X.
[05:31] <beuno> http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/4514
[05:31] <Dr_Willis> RedRose,  and gdm restarts it.
[05:31] <damian__> It was the problem!! Samba wasn't installed correctly. Duh!
[05:31] <Ron_o> then to get back in X, use startx... or reboot.
[05:32] <sambagirl> is there anyone i can haev private dialog box to help me to install vistaemr software on ubuntu?
[05:33] <lancer285> does lame do batch encoding from ogg to mp3?
[05:34] <jo__> Hello.
[05:34] <damian__> Yes, I have internet in my linux machine. Should i install Firestarter to enable internet sharing?
[05:34] <jo__> Can someone tell me which services are responsible for networking?
[05:34] <jo__> I installed sysv-rc-conf, and started fooling around with services.
[05:34] <beuno> cant get the ATI Mobility 9100 drivers to work, I still get that Im using MESA instead of ATI Drivers, did all the how to's, just cant get it to work, any ideas on where to look?
[05:35] <jo__> Managed to break networking, then fix it again, but I'm not sure what services are networking related. ;-)
[05:35] <adam_1981> hi all
[05:35] <NigelS> damian__: you could do yes, though a good solution is also the shorewall package which makes configuring iptables a bit easier
[05:35] <jestarius> does the 32-bit chroot on 64-bit usually take a long to to check components?
[05:35] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: so i should type aptitude install program ?
[05:36] <alpha> #flood
[05:36] <jo__> What exactly does chroot do?
[05:36] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: yes!
[05:36] <jo__> man chroot doesn't really tell me.
[05:36] <damian__> Nigel: What I know is that if I install Firestarter the conetion between the machines will screw up. Is it true?
[05:36] <jo__> lol
[05:36] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: thanks! =D
[05:36] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: before that ... do one thing
[05:36] <synapsis_> k
[05:36] <alpha> beuno, ?
[05:36] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: take my ~/.aptitude/config
[05:36] <intelikey> mmm jo__ i think you can 'dpkg-reconfigure initscripts'  for a full reset.
[05:36] <beuno> dunno, that seems to be working ok
[05:36] <codernaut> hello there. I have a weird problem. Last night my mouse went crazy and then everything went back to normal, since then when I minimize a window it doesn't show on the panel, the only way I can get focus of the window is by using ALT+TAB... does anyone knows why is this happening?
[05:36] <beuno> cant find whats wrong  :(
[05:36] <jo__> intelikey, I've got networking fixed.
[05:37] <jo__> intelikey, I'm just not sure which service fixed it ;)
[05:37] <intelikey> pppd probably
[05:37] <NigelS> damian__: not necessarily, some things could be blocked until you unblock them maybe.  Does firestarter let you configure masquerading and port forwarding?
[05:37] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: http://pastebin.com/428666
[05:37] <alpha> beuno, the ati binary driver wont work unless it sees a certain device and your is one it wont work with
[05:37] <jo__> Ah, I need pppd-dns?
[05:38] <adam_1981> does anyone here know how i can view my windows files on a dual boot system? Of know where I can look to findout?
[05:38] <jo__> pppd-dns: nothing appropriate.
[05:38] <jo__> I love whatis... so useless.
[05:38] <codernaut> Everytime I minimize a window it doesn't show the minimized button on the panel, does anybody know why please?
[05:38] <jo__> adam_1981, you have to mount the Windows drive.
[05:38] <beuno> ok, Ill keep on googling on how to change my pci string, and which one is appropriate
[05:38] <intelikey> jo__ the man pages work on your box don't they?    man pppd-dns   and see what it does..... should work with most commands and some functions
[05:39] <jo__> No manual entry for pppd-dns
[05:39] <jo__>  ;)
[05:39] <jo__> man 8 pppd gave me some info though, thanks.
[05:40] <intelikey> sell i couldn't check it atm.... '-bash: man: command not found
[05:40] <wegstar> ah... my unbuntu installation fails to boot up..
[05:40] <jo__> Haha. :D
[05:40] <intelikey> i guess i should fix my own man pages.
[05:40] <jo__> Google usually finds man pages pretty easily.
[05:40] <codernaut> Everytime I minimize a window it doesn't show the minimized button on the panel, does anybody know why please?
[05:40] <[linner] > !seen thoreauputic
[05:40] <ubotu> thoreauputic <n=prospero@ubuntu/member/thoreauputic> was last seen on IRC in channel #ubuntu, 1d 1h 38m 16s ago, saying: '!tell cmcnamar about restricted'.
[05:40] <intelikey> not on dialup
[05:40] <damian__> Nigel: don't know. I just tried and the internet sharing is working but the rest of the stuff is not.
[05:40] <wegstar> it says "kernel panic - not syncing/: VFS: unable to mout root fs on unknown-block(0,0)"
[05:41] <jo__> codernaut, does alt+tab work?
[05:41] <wegstar> and before that it says "please append a correct "root=" boot option"
[05:41] <codernaut> jo__ ALT+TAB works fine, that's the only way I can get focus to the windows.
[05:41] <jo__> Huh... weird.
[05:41] <NigelS> damian__: what other stuff?
[05:42] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: i still have no idea what i'm doing.
[05:42] <intelikey> codernaut add a pager to the pannel ?
[05:42] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: why?
[05:42] <wegstar> and before that it says cannot open root device "hda0" or unknown-block(0,0)
[05:42] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: well to make it simple, today is my first day using linux.
[05:42] <jestarius> i'm trying to use this howto:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575&highlight=chroot+32bit and I can't even get past the first step, it seems to get stuck at: Checking component main on http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu...
[05:42] <jo__> codernaut, yeah, make sure you have the right widgets ;)
[05:42] <pyraz> hey, i was wondering if anyone could help me find linux compatible drivers for a Radeon 9800 Pro
[05:42] <damian__> I can't access the other computers in the network
[05:43] <codernaut> intelkey : how do I add a pager?, I right click on the panel and I don't see something to add a pager
[05:43] <codernaut> jo__ : thanks, what widget do I need?
[05:43] <synapsis_> all i'm seeking to do is install amsn, thats all i wanna do.
[05:43] <SEJeff> !ati
[05:43] <ubotu> hmm... ati is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10
[05:43] <jo__> codernaut, "window list"
[05:43] <synapsis_> but there's like 50 million things that i have no idea to do.
[05:43] <theoddbot> codernaut: workspace switcher maybe
[05:43] <shadeofgrey> hey does anybody here know anything about linux certiufication?
[05:43] <synapsis_> makes me wanna run back to winblows
[05:43] <linlin> i have to NIC's, the first nic, eth0, works fine and can gt an ip via dhcp...when i try sudo ifup eth1, i get "ignoring unknown interface eth1"
[05:43] <linlin> how do i setup this second interface
[05:44] <SEJeff> shadeofgrey: I am going to go for my LPIC-1 Linux certification this Wed
[05:44] <codernaut> theoddbot: how do I add that to the panel?
[05:44] <Dr_Willis> damian__,  windows xp with sp2 has a lot of the stuff firewalled by default. also to access the ubuntu shares - you need to set up each user with a 'smbpasswd -a username'  (i think) to give them a samba login password
[05:44] <pyraz> wonderful, i'll check them out
[05:44] <shadeofgrey> thats something im very passionate about obtaining now that ive disdcovered how much i likwe the linux environment
[05:44] <pyraz> thanks
[05:44] <codernaut> jo__ : how do I add a "Window List" to the panel?
[05:44] <theoddbot> codernaut: right click on a panel -> add to panel -> window list   or whatever
[05:44] <damian__> Yes, I did that Nigel
[05:44] <jo__> Right click, click add to panel, drag the window list
[05:44] <SEJeff> shadeofgrey: Do you want to be a systems admin for a living?
[05:44] <abarbaccia> hello all - what is a good java compiler?  command line - simple generic if possible
[05:44] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: scare yah off?
[05:44] <SEJeff> shadeofgrey: If not, there isn't much of a point
[05:44] <codernaut> theoddbot: thanks
[05:44] <theoddbot> abarbaccia: jikes is pretty good
[05:44] <NigelS> damian__: by access do you mean view their shared folders and they're win boxes? Most probably firestarters default rules have blocked smb access, have a look in the section showing denied access etc and unblock as ncessary if it's samba related
[05:44] <codernaut> theodbott: I added Window List and it woeked
[05:44] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: do you need specific instructions [aka spoon feeding]  ?
[05:45] <codernaut> jo__ it worked thanks a lot!!
[05:45] <codernaut> you guys rock :D
[05:45] <jo__> No problem.
[05:45] <damian__> I think I found that section but it's more of trying and error.
[05:45] <libervisco> hello ppl
[05:45] <linlin> when i boot up my ubuntu 5.10 machine, it doesnt automatically bring up eth0, i have to manually do "sudo ifup eth0" for it to work...how do i fix this
[05:45] <shadeofgrey> seeraa:  yes, but...  not JUST a systems admin.  i want to be a systems admin and a consultant....  consultants are trhe ones that make the real monrey....  and i figure the best way to prove that i know the systems that i intend to recommend to people is by becoming certified inall of them.
[05:46] <SEJeff> shadeofgrey: I am a Web / Systems Admin consultant, I know this :)
[05:46] <libervisco> I can't figure this out...
[05:46] <SEJeff> shadeofgrey: I work for Trasys http://www.trasys.com
[05:46] <damian__> shit!! how the hell can I make it work?
[05:46] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: well if you wanna be mean about it, yes.
[05:46] <jo__> Hey guys, I have another situation. I want to run Windows, on Linux... probably vmware or win4lin... unfortunately, this computer's not super fast: 800mhz, 256mb ram; any chance I have a chance?
[05:46] <jo__> [don't bother suggesting WINE... lol]
[05:47] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: okay ... what are you trying to install? and do you have aptitude installed?
[05:47] <linlin> way too slow/not enough ram
[05:47] <fletch33> does anyone know if there is a synaptec usb2 mouse package or something that will allow me some more control over my laptop mouse pad?
[05:47] <jo__> linlin, thanks. :(
[05:47] <RAT> anyone knows programming in GTK?
[05:47] <libervisco> I'm trying to install DRM for savage according to this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75393
[05:47] <pyraz> another driver question, does anyone know where I could find a driver for a Creative SB Audigy 2?
[05:47] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: i'm seeking to install amsn, and i believe that i do have aptitude installed, however i could be wrong.
[05:47] <libervisco> but I keep getting the GCC related error
[05:47] <jo__> I can run Windows XP perfectly fine on this box, natively... but, I real;ly don't want to have to reboot.  :D
[05:47] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: okay ... did you take my aptitude config?
[05:47] <intelikey> linlin you can add comands to /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh   that you need to run at boot time
[05:48] <Xenguy> jo__: just check the minimum system requirements for vmware
[05:48] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: i'm on the site that you gave me, however looking at to me, is like trying to read russian.
[05:48] <RAT> I NEED HELP WITH THE GTK LIBRARY.......
[05:48] <heinzanova> if anyone could be so kind as to help a newb with some ndiswrapper problems, it would be greatly apperciated
[05:49] <_brian> what about GTK
[05:49] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: just copy and paste to to some file ... and save it in .aptitude/config in your home dir
[05:49] <linlin> will those commands be run as root intelikey
[05:49] <jo__> Xenguy, 500mhz and 256mb ram
[05:49] <linlin> or do i need to include sudo
[05:49] <intelikey> yes
[05:49] <linlin> k
[05:49] <damian__> I'm going to sleep. MAy be tomorrow will be a brighter day.
[05:49] <jo__> So, maybe it'll work fine?
[05:49] <RAT> how can i pass commands from a text box to console??
[05:49] <jo__> There's an evalution copy available... i'll probably grab it... if it runs well, I'll buy it./
[05:50] <Xenguy> jo__: there's only one way to find out ;-)
[05:50] <theoddbot> RAT: try zenity
[05:50] <libervisco> FATAL: Error inserting savage (/lib/modules/2.6.12-9-k7/kernel/drivers/char/drm/savage.ko): Invalid module format
[05:50] <jo__> Yeah, might as well try.
[05:50] <RAT> pardon my ignorance....zenity?
[05:50] <pyraz> are there thrid parties that make drivers for linux?
[05:50] <theoddbot> man zenity
[05:50] <RAT> thanx
[05:50] <_brian> Doesn't seem like a Gtk question,
[05:50] <libervisco> also talking about some version magic and needing to have GCC 3.4 instead of GCC 4.0 specified
[05:50] <me|ong> is vnc on by default in ubuntu?
[05:50] <libervisco> and I do have both installed
[05:50] <heinzanova> I am having a problem with after I run sudo modprobe ndiswrapper , nothing happens and the wireless nic does not appear in networking... Anyone????
[05:51] <Xenguy> me|ong: no
[05:51] <_brian> why do you want something on the console?
[05:51] <intelikey> console only :)
[05:52] <Dr_Willis> me|ong,  its not installed by deaault.. and you need to manually run the vncserver you install. (theres like 3 to choose from)
[05:52] <RAT> i have to make a program that puts lines trought GTK in the console.....
[05:52] <Xenguy> intelikey: it's great that linux gives you the option to do that tho, otherwise your hardware would be mostly useless :-)
[05:52] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: done and done, however i cannot see a .aptitude directory
[05:52] <misfit_toy> I'm truly amazed...after retweaking my breezy here, I have open: xchat, tbird, firefox (with 4 tabs active), 2 terms, liferea, gaim, and amarok, and am pushing tvout to a 20" tv for video, total cpu is 13%, on a 5 year old dell laptop.
[05:52] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: it's a hidden dir
[05:53] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: gedit .aptitude/config
[05:53] <Xenguy> misfit_toy: impressive - what did you tweak ?  :-)
[05:53] <intelikey> not at all Xenguy the lappy would.  but this p1 133mmx with 98m ram runs bluxbox just fine without any swap.
[05:53] <jo__> Hey, one last (well, probably not) question... in Fedora Core, my monitor was configured perfectly out of the box, however, on Ubuntu it's flickery (low refresh rate, I guess?) and it won't let me change the refresh rate...
[05:53] <jo__> Where can I change video card/monitor drivers to be my model?
[05:54] <Xenguy> intelikey: fluxbox, yes?
[05:54] <misfit_toy> Xenguy, hand combed every service and decided whether it needed to be started at S or in one of the init levels, got rid of tty4,5,6, small things like that
[05:54] <Xenguy> misfit_toy: cool
[05:54] <intelikey> Xenguy untill 3/4 days ago i ran kde on it.  :)
[05:54] <heinzanova> is there a room better suited for my wireless networking questions ??? and stuff with the ndiswrapper????
[05:54] <misfit_toy> and the boot was shaved 30 seconds as well :)
[05:54] <Xenguy> intelikey: how do you start fluxbox then - do you de-activate gdm?
[05:54] <jo__>  Where/how can I change video card/monitor drivers to be my model?
[05:55] <synapsis_> gnulinuxer: could not save file "/home/synapsis/.aptitude/config
[05:55] <intelikey> no *dm installed
[05:55] <intelikey> startx blah
[05:55] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: try sudo
[05:55] <glick> hey do you have to cool a cpu that consumes 9 watts of power?
[05:55] <jo__> Where/how can I change video card/monitor drivers to be my model?
[05:55] <Xenguy> intelikey: OK, so fluxbox configured through .xinitrc or .xsession then ?
[05:55] <jo__> [sorry, left]
[05:55] <xechostormx> yay! i finally got ubuntu installed :) had to use a different gfx card, install nvidia, reinsert my card and configure. but it looks worth it so far :)
[05:56] <intelikey> xsession
[05:56] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer: nope
[05:56] <misfit_toy> xechostormx, welcome!
[05:56] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: mkdir .aptitude
[05:56] <Xenguy> intelikey: do you invoke with 'fluxbox' or 'exec fluxbox' ?
[05:57] <intelikey> with it set to default in .xsession i just use 'startx'
[05:57] <cec> dus everyone using linux here
[05:57] <misfit_toy> cec, I would think yes
[05:57] <heinzanova> ^^^barely using linux
[05:57] <jo__> cec, either all using linux, or all planning to.
[05:57] <Xenguy> intelikey: sorry, what is the actual line in .xsession that invokes fluxbox tho (I'm thinking about adding another option for my setup)
[05:57] <heinzanova> cec : I consider my linux at about 2% set up
[05:57] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, off of /synapsis ?
[05:57] <xechostormx> although now i have a slight problem with getting my nforce driver installed. is there a way to se if its available though apt?
[05:57] <Latino> does ubuntu send CD for free outside US, or they charge only for the shipping?
[05:57] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: in ~/
[05:58] <misfit_toy> xechostormx, you mean the "real" nvidia driver?
[05:58] <Xenguy> Latino: it's free, just order them
[05:58] <jo__> Alright, well, thanks anyways guys, I'll figure out the monitor thing another day
[05:58] <heinzanova> Please somebody, anyone have experiance making this stupid NDisWrapper work with PCI Wireless cards?????
[05:58] <Latino> even the international shipping is paid by then?
[05:58] <misfit_toy> Latino, worldwide, anywhere
[05:58] <xechostormx> lol well i got the real gfx nvidia driver now but i need my 'chipset' driver . nforce3-250
[05:58] <Latino> k, thanks
[05:59] <Xenguy> Latino: AFAIK yes - check the web page for details tho
[05:59] <theoddbot> Latino: its shipped by people close to you
[05:59] <Latino> ohh, k I c
[05:59] <misfit_toy> xechostormx, I have no idea what you mean by that
[05:59] <Latino> thanks
[05:59] <intelikey> xenguy top line in .Xsession    'fluxbox'    i for got about removing the other stuff.
[05:59] <Xenguy> intelikey: thanks man
[05:59] <xechostormx> well I have a 'nvidia' chipset (some people have via,sis,etc.)
[06:00] <misfit_toy> xechostormx, post your xorg.conf to pastebin
[06:00] <xechostormx> ok
[06:00] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, i'm having so much trouble with this, i can't find the directory when i'm using the file browser
[06:01] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: do you know how to use the console?
[06:01] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, not well
[06:01] <synapsis_> enough to move around somewhat
[06:01] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: open it anyhow
[06:01] <Mabus06> applications, accessories, terminal
[06:02] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: opened?
[06:02] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, already there, whast the move command
[06:02] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: cd .aptitude
[06:02] <Mabus06> cd (change directory)
[06:02] <synapsis_> i'm trying to move that text file i made of what i pasted from that site, to the .aptitude
[06:03] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: cp <oldfile> .aptitude/config
[06:03] <sohappy2> does someone know the name for linux "widgets" (a la Tiger?)
[06:03] <misfit_toy> sohappy2, gdesklets?
[06:03] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, is /config a directory?
[06:03] <Dr_Willis> theres several sohappy2  :P
[06:03] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: no a file
[06:03] <synapsis_> k nice
[06:04] <synapsis_> its there
[06:04] <Dr_Willis> gnome= gdesklets, kde = somthing else. :P
[06:04] <sohappy2> misfit: i don't know... maybe? i'm totally new to linux
[06:04] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: done?
[06:04] <synapsis_> sohappy2: same here, and i'm way out in left feild bud
[06:04] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer,  yep
[06:04] <intelikey> GNULinuxer if he cd'd into .aptitude and then cp's blah .aptitude/blah   will the dir exist
[06:05] <GNULinuxer> intelikey: no
[06:05] <GNULinuxer> intelikey: i didn't know what he wanted to do
[06:05] <intelikey> that's what you told him to do.
[06:05] <sohappy2> synaps: thanks :)
[06:05] <GNULinuxer> intelikey: i assumed he'd have some common sense
[06:05] <sohappy2> anybody else? not gdesklets, but...?
[06:05] <synapsis_> i'd like to hope so ;)
[06:05] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer,  alright with that done, whats next
[06:06] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: sudo aptititude -f install amsn
[06:06] <synapsis_> k
[06:06] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: i hope your repos are in good shape
[06:06] <glick> i must say the debian fortunes were better and funnier then the ubuntu ones
[06:06] <GNULinuxer> glick: install them in that case
[06:06] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, well it did something
[06:07] <synapsis_> E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[06:07] <synapsis_> E: Unable to correct dependencies, some packages cannot be installed
[06:07] <synapsis_> E: Unable to resolve some dependencies
[06:07] <glick> GNULinuxer, i dont kow why they just dont use the same fortune
[06:07] <me|ong> make dep? :P
[06:07] <glick> files
[06:07] <glick> fortune is one of the most important programs
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> dont forget 'cowsay' also.
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> and 'figlet'
[06:08] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: your packages are in bad shape
[06:08] <synapsis_> yea =(
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> fortune | cowsay
[06:08] <synapsis_> i wish i could fix them myself, however i have no idea where to even start.
[06:08] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: the problems of installing stuff carelessly
[06:08] <synapsis_> this seems like a bad idea to even switch to ubuntu
[06:09] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: did it say which packages are held?
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> ive had very few if any problems with Ubuntu 5.10 actually
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> compared to other disrtos ive used.
[06:09] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: are you new to GNU/Linux?
[06:09] <synapsis_>   amsn: Depends: imlib1 which is a virtual package.
[06:09] <synapsis_>         Depends: sox but it is not installable
[06:09] <synapsis_>         Depends: libpng10-0 which is a virtual package.
[06:09] <thanatos> I have a faulty router, I need DHCP to get an IP address from an outside DNS, but when I change the DNS, when I reset my comp, it changes back to the default: my faulty router. can anyone help?
[06:09] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, *today* new
[06:09] <st_edmund> I have a problem with ppc ubuntu: I cant open Networking, it says "The config could not be loaded, there was an error running the backend script" .. can i reinstall networking?
[06:09] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: you are using GNU/Linux for the first time ever?
[06:10] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, yep.
[06:10] <shadeofgrey> hey guys whats a good book that i can buy that details all the commandline commands available in ubuntu and debian so that i can learn to control a ubuntu install without the gui
[06:10] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: install imlib1
[06:10] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, type that?
[06:10] <xechostormx> oh shoot i unfortunatly need yum or mp3 support anyone have a command?
[06:10] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: sudo aptititude -f install imlib1
[06:10] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: sudo aptitude -f install imlib1
[06:10] <varsendagger> there had got to be some kind of progrram to get tv streams like stream tuner?
[06:11] <me|ong> xechostormx
[06:11] <AzMoo> varsendagger, gstreamer?
[06:11] <me|ong> get xmms
[06:11] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, done
[06:11] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: installed?
[06:11] <intelikey> shadeofgrey 'ls /*bin /usr/*bin ' for the list and 'man command ' for the info.
[06:11] <synapsis_> yep
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> shadeofgrey,  'using bash' by Orealy is a must get/read book for learning bash. :P
[06:11] <st_edmund> yea xmms rocks .
[06:11] <thanatos> I have a faulty router, I need DHCP to get an IP address from an outside DNS, but when I change the DNS, when I reset my comp, it changes back to the default: my faulty router. can anyone help?
[06:11] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: sudo aptitude -f install sox
[06:11] <xechostormx> oh i have xmms i thought it didnt support mp3 without screwing with it?
[06:11] <AzMoo> thanatos, don't repeat your question.
[06:11] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: sudo aptitude -f install libpng10-0
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> or is it "learning bash"  - i forget.
[06:12] <theoddbot> xechostormx: only in redhat land
[06:12] <synapsis_> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[06:12] <synapsis_>   sox: Depends: libmad0 (>= 0.15.1b) which is a virtual package.
[06:12] <st_edmund> xechostormx, i use xmms all the time to play mp3s. Works like a charm! infact i have an mp3 server running it.
[06:12] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, libpng done
[06:12] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: sudo aptitude -f install libmad0
[06:12] <xechostormx> nice :) must only be redhat then
[06:12] <synapsis_> done
[06:13] <xadux> where I can find a good book to learn bash?
[06:13] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: sudo aptitude -f install sox
[06:13] <me|ong> xechostormx
[06:13] <me|ong> redhat blows :P
[06:13] <mustard5> xadux, there is a guide you can download via synaptic actually
[06:13] <me|ong> its like windows but you pay for support
[06:13] <me|ong> which it needs :S
[06:13] <mustard5> xadux, I think the package is called abs
[06:13] <jo-idle> me|ong, red hat doesn't blow...
[06:13] <st_edmund> xadux, chapters?
[06:13] <st_edmund> amazon.com?
[06:13] <xadux> ok
[06:14] <me|ong> i dont like redhat
[06:14] <me|ong> its overrated
[06:14] <me|ong> the only reason companies buy it is because of the support
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> "advanced bash scripting guide" is a must read (ABS GUide)
[06:14] <varsendagger> really
[06:14] <synapsis_> sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Nov 13 19:12:47 2005
[06:14] <kapputu> Isn't cc the C compiler for Solaris??
[06:14] <st_edmund> Anyone know if i can re-install the networking applet?
[06:15] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, i just changed my clock time, is that why
[06:15] <intelikey> rute
[06:15] <mustard5> synapsis, your system clock might have gone out of wack
[06:15] <heinzanova> Is there a place, I can get help
[06:15] <heinzanova> with my wireless?
[06:15] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: is your clock time correct? did you do this in between this installations?
[06:16] <mustard5> synapsis_, I would say changing the time has everything to do with it ;)
[06:16] <kapputu> isn't gcc the C compiler for linux?
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> kapputu,  yes. normally
[06:16] <intelikey> yep
[06:16] <synapsis_> *sigh*
[06:16] <synapsis_> i'm gettin real upset
[06:16] <synapsis_> won't even let me change the date
[06:16] <intelikey> kapputu install 'build-essential'
[06:17] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: don't worry ... have patience
[06:17] <mustard5> synapsis_, did you sync your system clock with a time server?
[06:17] <xechostormx> ok xmms works great :) im getting distorted audio (just slightly) though, is this common? definently never happend using win.
[06:17] <kapputu> ubuntu is very addictive
[06:17] <synapsis_> must: nope
[06:17] <mustard5> synapsis_, how exactly did you change it?
[06:17] <kapputu> it was, when I started using it last year
[06:17] <kapputu> and again when I moved to Hoary
[06:17] <heinzanova> ubuntu is annoying
[06:17] <kapputu> and now when I moved to Breezy
[06:17] <synapsis_> i right clicked on the clock, and tried to set it for my time, 12:19am, rather than 7 something
[06:17] <kapputu> and yet it's very simple
[06:17] <xechostormx> Im a huge audiophile, so this could be a killer for me
[06:17] <mustard5> heinzanova, what are you setting up?
[06:18] <kapputu> I think it'd due to apt
[06:18] <st_edmund> xechostormx, i'm a musician. xmms is just fine!!!
[06:18] <mustard5> heinzanova, there are a number of guides on wiki.ubuntu.com
[06:18] <xechostormx> ok its my sound codec then
[06:18] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, so whats the plan now that everythings sidelined
[06:18] <xechostormx> dangnabbit!
[06:18] <heinzanova> mustard5 : I have gone buy a tutorial on there
[06:18] <heinzanova> and I am not getting the results they are
[06:18] <heinzanova> it is installing the wireless
[06:19] <kapputu> why would someone compile the modules in Cisco VPN client using cc and say it's for linux?
[06:19] <mustard5> heinzanova, what is your hardware?
[06:19] <heinzanova> LinkSys WMP54G PCI
[06:19] <AzMoo> Where do you put gnome themes?
[06:19] <xechostormx> Im using a realtek850 for sound -normally with optical out, but i havent figured out how to enable that yet so im using rca's
[06:19] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: have you used Synaptic?
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> AzMoo,  the gnome theem selector tool has a 'install' button I belive. Or ya can drag/drop them on it.
[06:19] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, nope
[06:20] <GNULinuxer> synapsis_: i guess the command line is too much for you
[06:20] <synapsis_> GNULinuxer, getting to be
