[12:00] <treth> SEJeff:  Kubuntu.
[12:00] <SEJeff> treth, I'm sorry :)
[12:00] <Amaranth> B-166_ER-X: ok...
[12:00] <cary> that seemed to do more, after bein glogged in as root
[12:00] <New2UbuntuGuy> thats ok, my mother in law doesnt care about carved up icons
[12:00] <jrattner1> treth, i would recomend it for either, it makes wireless networking a matter of "point and click"
[12:00] <New2UbuntuGuy> she only cares about cute stuff on her desktop
[12:00] <Amaranth> B-166_ER-X: sudo rm ~/.ICEauthority && kdesu k3b
[12:00] <New2UbuntuGuy> and critters that walk along the top of her windows while shes playing solitaire
[12:01] <treth> SEJeff:  I think GTK is a blight on the face of open source (I'm being overly dramatic, of course, I just prefer Qt).  :P
[12:01] <gerald-volt> how do I install a .deb package?
[12:01] <Amaranth> B-166_ER-X: After that I'm out of ideas.
[12:01] <joshi_> Is Half-Life supported on linux?
[12:01] <brother_of_jared> I could use a hand with this terminal stuff to look at this file when someone has a moment.
[12:01] <polpak> gerald-volt, dpkg -i pkgname
[12:01] <Amaranth> treth: Qt is ok, but GTK is still my favorite for writing things in
[12:01] <polpak> joshi_, not officially, but it has been known to work under wine
[12:01] <SEJeff> treth, And I was kidding. I find kde overly compliex and I am not a new linux user. To each his own...
[12:01] <joshi_> thnx
[12:01] <treth> SEJeff:  It's funny.  I prefer QT to GTK, but I have to use gAIM because the one QT IM client, whatever it is (can't remember the name) is absolutely horrible.
[12:01] <polpak> joshi_, quake 4 is supported though
[12:01] <SEJeff> treth, kopete
[12:02] <odat> treth, just remember developers are never gonna create commercial software on a new platform if they have to pay to do it   opposed to doing if for free
[12:02] <B-166_ER-X> Amaranth,  didnt work well i guess : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6551
[12:02] <cary> odat, im goign to paste what it said when i ran that install as root
[12:02] <treth> SEJeff:  I know.  In Open Source, we like to get really dramatic with our 'battles' when we really don't care very much.  =^^=
[12:02] <SEJeff> treth, There is a gtk theme that makes gtk software draw it's widgets with qt. It allows stuff like gaim to look "kdeish"
[12:02] <odat> cary, don't know why your running this as root
[12:02] <polpak> treth, funny. I'm the opposite. I use GTK apps for everything except smb4k and qgo. As in both cases there isn't a gtk replacement
[12:02] <Amaranth> B-166_ER-X: that's supposed to happen
[12:02] <Amaranth> B-166_ER-X: put in the password
[12:03] <xst> Are there any way I can boot a ubuntu HD-installation in runlevel 1, if I do not have the root-password?
[12:03] <brother_of_jared> ok, I'll come back later...
[12:03] <treth> SEJeff:  What's the package name for the network manager program?
[12:03] <cary> odat, well it was the only thing i could think of after you said "cary doesnt seem to have permission" or whatever
[12:03] <_Casper> My installation is hanging after the 1st reboot.  ...boots back up, goes into configuring the base system and hangs at 0% "Preparing the installation."  Can anyone help?
[12:03] <kemik> xst:  there is no root passwd in ubuntu
[12:03] <B-166_ER-X> Amaranth,  did it ...then : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6552
[12:04] <SEJeff> treth, 'sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-gtk-qt' and set that as your gtk theme for gtk apps to fit in with kde
[12:04] <odat> treth, i assume i win
[12:04] <odat> lol
[12:04] <kemik> xst:  unless you yourself enabled the root acct
[12:04] <brother_of_jared> g'night all.. I'm off to work
[12:04] <New2UbuntuGuy> ok next silly question, how do I get rid of the cat and the penguins now taking over my desktop?
[12:04] <polpak> New2UbuntuGuy, kill the processes
[12:04] <treth> odat:  win what?  I probably missed your statement.  :P
[12:04] <kemik> New2UbuntuGuy:  what cat and penguin ?
[12:04] <dooglus> xst: I heard a rumour that you don't need to root password to get into single-user mode in ubuntu
[12:04] <SEJeff> treth, network-manager
[12:04] <Amaranth> B-166_ER-X: I'm out of ideas.
[12:04] <cary> odat, i ran apt-get update and then i was notifed of the new updates via the gui  but i still cant see my synaptic
[12:04] <SEJeff> dooglus, you don't
[12:04] <Amaranth> B-166_ER-X: Try #kubuntu, they might actually know how KDE works. :P
[12:04] <odat> treth, tis ok i just had an epiphany the other day why i choose and luv gnome
[12:04] <xst> dooglus: How can I do it? I have physical access to the machine
[12:05] <B-166_ER-X> i'm on Ubuntu, gnome, not kubuntu
[12:05] <SEJeff> odat, why is that?
[12:05] <polpak> cary, I believe the problem is that you are not an administrative user
[12:05] <dooglus> xst: log in, and type "telinit 1"
[12:05] <chalcedony> Amaranth: and then again they might not...
[12:05] <chalcedony> ;)
[12:05] <dooglus> xst: or "sudo telinit 1" if you're not root
[12:05] <_Casper> My installation is hanging after the 1st reboot.  ...boots back up, goes into configuring the base system and hangs at 0% "Preparing the installation."  Can anyone help?
[12:05] <kemik> xst:  boot in "safe mode" think that gives you root aswell
[12:05] <cary> polpak, how can i change that?
[12:05] <New2UbuntuGuy> ok, I appreciate the information so much
[12:05] <New2UbuntuGuy> as soon as I ran xpenguins, mother in law came running over
[12:05] <IdleOne> anybody know how to create a launcher on the desktop using a one button mouse?
[12:05] <kremonte> =P
[12:05] <New2UbuntuGuy> OH LOOK thats so CUTE!!!
[12:05] <SEJeff> kemik, recovery mode. That is the exact same thing as single user mode
[12:05] <chalcedony> New2UbuntuGuy: they are.
[12:05] <kremonte> New2UbuntuGuy: try xpenguins --penguins 50 ;-)
[12:05] <New2UbuntuGuy> I have redeemed myself in her eyes :)
[12:05] <kemik> SEJeff:  ah yes. recovery :)
[12:05] <xst> I searched for a safe mode. How do I boot in safe mode?
[12:06] <micahf> hey everyone!
[12:06] <lucasvo> my netboot installation fails at 92% Loading module 'isofs' for linux iso 9660 filesystem
[12:06] <polpak> New2UbuntuGuy, excellent
[12:06] <Mabus06> press escape when grub is loading, xst
[12:06] <_Casper> My installation is hanging after the 1st reboot.  ...boots back up, goes into configuring the base system and hangs at 0% "Preparing the installation."  Can anyone help?
[12:06] <New2UbuntuGuy> I will try that ;) Ill check the help out for this later when im bored, but right now, I need to go farm some more ectoplasm in guild wars
[12:06] <treth> SEJeff:  Hmm . . .
[12:06] <SEJeff> xst, Reboot the computer. Select (recovery mode)
[12:06] <New2UbuntuGuy> :D
[12:06] <xst> Mabus06: ok - and that gives me a set of options?
[12:06] <odat> SEJeff, many many things but i dawned on me that the big developers and the commercial developers are not going to develope software for a new market and pay to do it (qt) when they can develope for that same market for free (gtk)
[12:06] <Mabus06> yes, xst
[12:06] <polpak> cary, you cannot
[12:06] <New2UbuntuGuy> thank you thank you thank you, the support in here is wonderful :)
[12:06] <micahf> would anyone be interested in helping me design a distribution for grandmothers and grandfathers?
[12:07] <Mabus06> right after your memory is checked or whatever, and right before the ubuntu stuff starts loading
[12:07] <micahf> focusing on dialup internet and fast and simple usability?
[12:07] <kemik> New2UbuntuGuy:  haha omg.. u made me install xpenguins
[12:07] <polpak> cary, the only possible option is to boot into single user mode
[12:07] <kremonte> my grandfather has used debian since it's release =P
[12:07] <kemik> thats so sille
[12:07] <odat> micahf, sounds like fun what do you want?
[12:07] <kemik> silly
[12:07] <cary> polpak, so how can i create a user that CAN see the package manager? i only want one account and i want it to be named cary, and i want it to be an admin
[12:07] <New2UbuntuGuy> I sure hope when I have a handle on this stuff I can lend some knowledge back to the community :)
[12:07] <SEJeff> odat, That is why Sun, HP, and now Novell are focusing much more on gnome/gtk
[12:07] <New2UbuntuGuy> Thank you again!
[12:07] <odat> micahf, stick with ubuntu and or gnome
[12:07] <kremonte> cyphase: ubotu =P
[12:07] <micahf> gnome is slow
[12:07] <fractas> i need some help
[12:07] <micahf> I'm using xfce
[12:07] <cyphase> i.e. if someone asks "how do i change repos?"
[12:07] <micahf> and tango icons
[12:07] <odat> SEJeff, nice to know i think like them lol
[12:07] <cyphase> the bot will answer automatically
[12:08] <micahf> with nautilus
[12:08] <cyphase> and other things of course
[12:08] <Jrex-Linux> Whats the command in terminal to change the title of the conole?
[12:08] <cary> polpak, is SUM command line only? and should it be this hard to be able to see the freaking package manager? it worked straight away last time i installed
[12:08] <cyphase> not just that :P
[12:08] <Jrex-Linux> *console
[12:08] <fractas> how i change an rpm package to a debian package
[12:08] <micahf> xfce is fast
[12:08] <cyphase> fractas, alien
[12:08] <micahf> fast as heck
[12:08] <odat> micahf, not a chance besides i've tested dapper and gnome friggin flies
[12:08] <fractas> i wish to install kylix on ubuntu the 2.0 version
[12:08] <polpak> cary, the problem is that the first time you installed it created your user as admin
[12:08] <SEJeff> Jrex-Linux, Are you using gnome?
[12:08] <Jrex-Linux> yes
[12:08] <xst> Mabus06: cool, thanks
[12:08] <polpak> cary, (which is the default)
[12:08] <odat> micahf, also gnome is much easier to use   (not so confusing) opposed to kde
[12:09] <SEJeff> micahf, gnome in dapper is much faster. Thats what I'm running right now
[12:09] <kemik> SEJeff:  isnt QT a nicer api than gtk tho ? (or so i gathered from the little i've read)
[12:09] <Jrex-Linux> Whats the command in terminal to change the title of the console?
[12:09] <odat> micahf, the next release of gnome which is currently in dapper is all about optimizing
[12:09] <kremonte> are we amidst a gnome vs kde thing right now? O_o
[12:09] <cyphase> uh oh
[12:09] <polpak> cary, if you created a new user that did not have admin priveleges and are using that one then a secure system should not allow you to upgrade your privileges
[12:09] <Jrex-Linux> I need to add it to an .sh file
[12:09] <sadowski> can anyone here help me with setting up sound on a gateway laptop? pm please
[12:09] <odat> SEJeff, here here thanks sejeff
[12:09] <SEJeff> kemik, thats something for #ubuntu-offtopic and I'd rather not get into the merits of
[12:09] <IdleOne> anybody know how to create a launcher on the desktop using a one button mouse?
[12:09] <cary> polpak, so...i am fine with totally reinstalling the system. ive not  modified hardly anything. im basically defautl setup as i am. so on reintstall what should to avoid this?
[12:09] <jahshua--> hey what do i need to play .mov files, which plugin ?
[12:09] <micahf> wow
[12:09] <kemik> SEJeff:  yeah i guess
[12:09] <SEJeff> IdleOne, don't use a mac?
[12:09] <micahf> colloquy is incredible
[12:09] <sadowski> can anyone here help me with setting up sound on a gateway laptop? pm please
[12:09] <kemik> will gnome be using Cairo in dapper?
[12:10] <IdleOne> SEJeff:  not an option at this point
[12:10] <cary> polpak, this is th eonly user i created other than root
[12:10] <christian_> Which is the best torrent client for Linux? :P
[12:10] <odat> kemik, my gnome and gtk apps are beautiful  you can make it look like you want
[12:10] <SEJeff> kemik, clearlooks uses cairo in dapper
[12:10] <cary> polpak, and it snot like i really "created" root
[12:10] <beruic> I'm having some problems installing Skype, can anybody help me? I miss a package called libqt3c102-mt which is replaced by libqt3-mt (i have that one installed, but it doesn't work).
[12:10] <odat> kemik, i use nuvola  and luv it

[12:10] <PeteyPablo> how do i copy music to my ipod using gtkpod?
[12:10] <jahshua--> what do i need to play .mov files, which plugin ?
[12:10] <Delvien> is todays update stable for dapper?
[12:11] <kemik> odat:  care to make a screenshot? :)
[12:11] <B-166_ER-X> or Amaranth  another of my problem, might or might not be related : aMSN (no, not the freezing bug) ... when i try to run it in terminal it makes : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6553 , but if i run it in Sudo, ir runs ok... but says 2 line about destroying .mi and .si , as you can see in the screenshot
[12:11] <odat> kemik, i have a nvidia card
[12:11] <fractas> i wish to install the kylix2 open edition on ubuntu and need some help
[12:11] <kemik> bugger.. i think Cairo wont go well with ati
[12:11] <SEJeff> Delvien, If you are not comfortable with the internals of linux and fixing things when they break/filing bug reports. do NOT use dapper.
[12:11] <kemik> read something along those lines
[12:11] <Jrex-Linux> SEJeff, I need the command
[12:11] <SEJeff> Jrex-Linux, There is no command
[12:11] <scott_> I have a simple question..
[12:11] <Jrex-Linux> :(
[12:11] <kemik> scott_:  :shoot
[12:11] <SEJeff> Jrex-Linux, If you use gnome-terminal. Do it like that
[12:12] <Delvien> SEJeff did i ask you if i should be using dapper? no ....!!!!
[12:12] <fractas> someone knows how to install kylix on ubuntu... this is important to me
[12:12] <polpak> cary, pastebin your /etc/group file
[12:12] [serayuzgur(n=serayuzg@<IP_ADDRESS>)]  hi
[12:12] <SEJeff> Delvien, And am I going to answer your original question? no...!!!!
[12:12] <scott_> I just installed Ubuntu, I love it but how do I install a package from a deb file?
[12:12] [serayuzgur(n=serayuzg@<IP_ADDRESS>)]  can i ask stng
[12:12] <Jrex-Linux> SEJeff, I need the command, to put into a script
[12:12] <kremonte> SEJeff: it changes when you cahnge directories :-(
[12:12] <polpak> scott_, what package?
[12:12] <scott_> I have the Ubuntu version of Opera..
[12:12] <sporkbomb> scott_: check out the man page for dpkg
[12:12] <polpak> scott_, in general you should install things from the repos
[12:13] <Delvien> SEjeff dont comment if you are going to be a prick
[12:13] <odat> kemik, there ya go
[12:13] <kemik> odat:  thx!
[12:13] <beruic> I'm having some problems installing Skype, can anybody help me? I miss a package called libqt3c102-mt which i can't get. It is replaced by libqt3-mt which I have installed, but it doesn't work.
[12:13] <zazza> hi all
[12:13] <IdleOne> is there a keyboard shortcut for the right click?
[12:13] <SEJeff> Delvien, You are the one being rude. I simply said if you don't know how to fix it, don't use it. I run dapper right now. So you are the one that needs to chill dude
[12:14] <cary> polpak, what is the command to open "group" up to be able to copy it. i can see it in /etc  but...how do i open i
[12:14] <odat> kemik, hold one more
[12:14] <fractas> help
[12:14] <beruic> I'm having some problems installing Skype, can anybody help me? I miss a package called libqt3c102-mt which i can't get. It is replaced by libqt3-mt which I have installed, but it doesn't work.
[12:14] <polpak> cary, cat /etc/group
[12:14] <cvt|gnuyear> polpak, how do i know if i'm using an NForce2-based motherboard?
[12:14] <polpak> beruic, stop spamming please
[12:14] <polpak> ubotu tell beruic about patience
[12:14] <scott_> ok.. I'll check the man pages.. thanks guys..
[12:14] <kemik> !tell beruic about skype
[12:14] <beruic> I heard u
[12:15] <Delvien> SEJeff did i say i didnt know how to fix it? no , i said is it stable.  Maybe some of us dont have time to file bug reports tonight.. Maybe some of us just want to know if it will break somethin tonight so we can work on it.  I didnt ask for someones sarcastic and redundent remarks about i shouldnt use dapper, because guess what. If i was a total noob i wouldnt even use dapper, .
[12:15] <odat> kemik, this one has the file manager
[12:15] <polpak> cvt|gnuyear, I'd assume you don't. If you run into trouble you can change that part of the Xorg.conf
[12:15] <_Casper> My installation is hanging after the 1st reboot.  ...boots back up, goes into configuring the base system and hangs at 0% "Preparing the installation."  Can anyone help?
[12:15] <zazza> am trying to burn audio cd using k3b when i choose the mp3  get error messege that its unable to handle that format how do i solve this
[12:15] <cary> polpak, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6554
[12:16] <SEJeff> Delvien, get a life dude. Dapper is deemed unstable and that is why it is in development. I run it because I like it and I do some development. If you want to see, install it for yourself
[12:16] <kemik> Delvien:  dapper is stable in april :) (or will be)
[12:16] <odat> SEJeff, although if pretty new to linux don't run dapper
[12:17] <Hobbsee> SEJeff: and Delvien and apparently X is going to break fairly soon, too
[12:17] <Delvien> SEJeff what are you 12? grow up and read what i say before you come back
[12:17] <kemik> but let's be more friendly and dont turn into #debian  ;)
[12:17] <fractas> i need some help with a installation
[12:17] <SEJeff> odat, Exactly. That is the comment I made earlier
[12:17] <Delvien> hobbsee THATS why i asked if it was stable in the first place :P
[12:17] <odat> SEJeff, lol sorry didn't see it
[12:17] <SEJeff> Delvien, I'm a 'nix systems admin, you?
[12:17] <odat> kemik, like the screenshots?
[12:17] <sorush20> how do I find out what version of xorg I have?
[12:17] <Hobbsee> Delvien: well, on my system, it's perfectly stable today, and i've just found that suspend works (yay!), but i cant guarentee about what it will be like tomorrow, or what things you
[12:18] <Delvien> SEJeff What does it matter what i do? At least im not a immature little boy
[12:18] <polpak> cary, you've somehow removed your admin group..
[12:18] <ajmitch> SEJeff, Delvien: just drop it
[12:18] <Hobbsee> Delvien: will have to do to make it work for you, like getting an internet connection
[12:18] <cary> polpak, ahahaha fantastic. what does that even mean.
[12:18] <Hobbsee> darn enter key is too close to the ' key!
[12:18] <kremonte> why the fighting :-(
[12:18] <SEJeff> sorush20, dpkg -l  xorg-common
[12:18] <Delvien> Hobbsee aye, stable on mine to 2.6.15-10-386
[12:18] <kemik> odat:  yeah they're nice :)
[12:18] <Lord_Athur> hi
[12:18] <Delvien> Hobbsee that was my problem in kernal 9
[12:18] <Hobbsee> ah right
[12:19] <odat> kemik, thanx i really like the nuvola theme everything highlights where it should in very crisp appearance
[12:19] <kemik> odat:  isit available on gnomelook?
[12:19] <odat> kemik, prolly but i get it through synaptic
[12:19] <SEJeff> cary: you need to reboot into recovery mode and add it back. I'll give you the commands if you want
[12:19] <kemik> oh
[12:20] <kemik> didnt know themes were available thru synaptic/apt
[12:20] <fractas> #flood "i need some help to install kylix 2 open edition on a ubuntu linux"
[12:20] <polpak> cary, my group file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6555
[12:20] <odat> kemik, yea its a package called gnome theme extras
[12:20] <Seveas> fractas, asking specific questions is better
[12:20] <metho> good evening, i have trouble with my microphoen, ubuntu doesnt recognise it for some strange reasons
[12:20] <concept10> kemik, odat check out this theme: http://img307.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot19zb.png
[12:20] <fractas> like what?
[12:20] <polpak> cary, as you can see, the group admin (just after scanner) is missing in your file
[12:20] <fractas> seveas, like what?
[12:21] <Seveas> fractas, well, like the things you need to know...
[12:21] <polpak> cary, it needs to be there, and your user needs to be in it in order to access sudo
[12:21] <cary> SEJeff, by all means
[12:21] <metho> could someone tell me how to configure microphone in ubuntu
[12:21] <Lord_Athur> hi there
[12:21] <cary> polpak, so what can i do about this?
[12:21] <odat> concept10, thats pretty nice what is that called?
[12:22] <fractas> seveas, i need to know how to install kylix 2 open edition on ubuntu, because they came on rpm version
[12:22] <Lord_Athur> I've got any problems mounting a file look at it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6471
[12:22] <Delvien> hobbsee while in a session of VI , how do i save the configuration file ?
[12:22] <polpak> kemik, even better you can apt-get install gnome-art and pick and choose from hundreds of themes
[12:22] <SEJeff> cary, Ok. reboot the computer and select recovery mode. Once you are at a root shell (#) type vigr
[12:22] <fractas> and don't work after the installation
[12:22] <Seveas> fractas, rpms are bad, better get the source and compile it
[12:22] <SEJeff> cary, That should open your group file up in nano as it is the default editor for ubuntu
[12:22] <fractas> i don't have the source
[12:22] <concept10> odat, on gnome-look, look for vista, right now im using a bluevista theme, it makes gnome look brand new :)
[12:22] <fractas> so i cannot compile it
[12:22] <Seveas> fractas, then get it...
[12:22] <kemik> omg
[12:22] <kemik> i'll be theme-chaning all nite ;)
[12:22] <Seveas> kemik, rofl
[12:23] <SEJeff> cary, then you need to add a line just like this 'admin:x:106:jeff' and replace jeff with your username
[12:23] <Lord_Athur> HEY I've got any problems mounting a file look at it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6471
[12:23] <fractas> there is a way to transform a rpm into a deb package?
[12:23] <zezu> my ubuntu is starting to act strangely,  it takes longer to boot and i can't seem to open whatever it uses as a graphical filesystem manager
[12:23] <wucked> hi there... i done all the FixVideoResolutionHowto offerd but still it says "(ee) RADEON(0)No valid modes found"
[12:23] <Seveas> fractas, yes, but it's not guaranteed to work
[12:23] <zezu> anyone know why this might happen ?
[12:23] <fractas> because i don't know where to get the source code
[12:23] <gerald-volt> anyone know what package i need to install for this error?
[12:23] <kemik> Seveas:  well it's alot better than writing a report/commenting code :)
[12:23] <gerald-volt> Package libqt3c102-mt is not installed
[12:23] <cary> SEJeff, so the x and the 106 needs to stay like that?
[12:23] <kemik> gerald-volt:  trying to get skype working ?
[12:23] <fractas> i buy a book and the program came together
[12:23] <Seveas> gerald-volt, what are you installing?
[12:23] <kemik> !tell gerald-volt about skype
[12:24] <SEJeff> cary, yes. Make it stay exactly like that
[12:24] <cary> and 'vigr' is the full command at the root shell?
[12:24] <gerald-volt> i'm trying to install varicad
[12:24] <SEJeff> cary, yes
[12:24] <zezu> ie: if i goto places: Computer, all i get is a taskbar saying "Starting Computer" then it disappears
[12:24] <cary> well here goes i guess
[12:24] <fractas> Seveas, sorry for the trouble
[12:24] <cary> SEJeff, does it matter when i add the line?
[12:25] <odat> concept10, i don't see bluevista
[12:25] <Seveas> fractas, kylix does not support Ubuntu, Ubuntu does not support kylix, You might need red hat for it to be supportd
[12:25] <zezu> shit terminal is doing the same
[12:25] <zezu> something really is broke
[12:25] <SEJeff> cary, just a sec... in nano, things like ^O mean you hit CTRL O. Not it doesn't. But you might just do it at the very end
[12:25] <Delvien> Seveas hey bro maybe you can answer this for me, in "vi" whats the keymap to save the file
[12:25] <tbw> Does anyone here know the blogger.com xmlrpc url?
[12:25] <B-166_ER-X> my problem, might or might not be related to my k3b bug : aMSN (no, not the freezing bug) ... when i try to run it in terminal it makes : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6553 , but if i run it in Sudo, ir runs ok... but says 2 line about destroying .mi and .si , as you can see in the screenshot
[12:25] <tbw> It simply doesnt fucking exist on blogger.com
[12:25] <tbw> or google for that matter
[12:25] <Seveas> Delvien, <ESC>:w
[12:25] <SEJeff> cary, ^O is to save the file and then ^X is to exit nano. Then just type reboot and it should be fixed
[12:25] <meepy> Anyone using vsftpd?
[12:25] <fractas> really :(
[12:25] <mwe> fractas: I don
[12:25] <zezu> brb, reverting to console
[12:26] <mwe> fractas: I don't think kylix is open source
[12:26] <cary> SEJeff, awesome . thank you
[12:26] <Seveas> fractas, you may have luck with alien (converting rpm to deb)

[12:26] <fractas> works bad
[12:26] <SEJeff> Delvien, :w. you forgot the colon
[12:26] <Seveas> Delvien, <ESC> is to get into command mode, :w is to write the file
[12:26] <fractas> and my version of kylix is open edition, i received it free of charge
[12:26] <metho> could u please tell me why my microphone isnt working in Linux
[12:27] <SEJeff> cary, OH as in the letter

[12:29] <odat> kemik, one of the reasons i like it because it changes everything i don't have to track down matching stuff. I have converted a few people to linux and i'm their tech guy and nuvola just made it so easy for me to set them up

[12:44] <metho> is there a yahoo messenger for ubuntu
[12:44] <SEJeff> cary, open up System --> Administration --> Users and Groups

[12:44] <kemik> Teclis:  shouldnt run anything as root, unless it requires it
[12:44] <metho> gaim wouldnt let me use the voice conversation
[12:45] <mwe> metho: but I believe you can dl a linux version from yahoo.com if you insist on using yahoo messenger
[12:45] <SEJeff> metho, I believe gaim 2.0 will support voice chat. It should be out fairly soon
[12:45] <SuperNova> ubutu is going to be installet on my curren hdd, (partitionized as C/D/E), can the ubuntuinstall change the filformat on "C" to the correct filesystem for ubuntu WITHOUT changing/damagin D and E?
[12:45] <monkey050> Bye.
[12:45] <kemik> SuperNova:  yes
[12:45] <metho> i see!
[12:45] <cary> SEJeff it says its starting it then the busy mouse goes away and no window opens
[12:45] <cvt|gnuyear> Is it better to close the browswer, xchat, system monitor, and xine before shutting down?
[12:45] <pixelmonkey> what is the ubuntu-sanctioned way of making sure modules load at start-up?  I just realized that ubuntu wasn't loading ehci-hcd, so I was accessing USB jump drives with 1.1 speeds!
[12:45] <mwe> metho: I think kopete does. it has full web cam support at least  so I'd guess voice chat was also supported
[12:46] <foampeace> Seveas: isnt there something that does it
[12:46] <SEJeff> cary, open up a terminal and type 'groups cary'
[12:46] <kemik> SuperNova:  but make sure you know which partition "C" is /dev/hdXY
[12:46] <Teclis> kemik: I will never do again. But that doesn't solve my problem.
[12:46] <SuperNova> how do i do that?
[12:46] <SEJeff> cary, also type 'sudo -l' as in L in a terminal
[12:46] <mwe> metho: or get the original yahoo messenger of yahoo.com
[12:46] <foampeace> Seveas: you know of a site about having a chroot ubuntu sub environment?
[12:46] <metho> mwe: how can i long on to kopete cos i dont see any button that says log on
[12:47] <mwe> metho: you have to configure an account first
[12:47] <kemik> Teclis: maybe try something like "sudo chmod -R youruser:youruser ~/.bmpx
[12:47] <metho> mwe: i did
[12:47] <Diffindo> I'm trying to install Ubuntu Hoary on an older system and I keep getting an error msg like this.

[12:48] <polpak> SuperNova, you should check out the dual boot wiki
[12:48] <Diffindo> ISOLINUX (... something something) trying to wing it.
[12:48] <mwe> metho: can't you right click the systray icon and use set status?
[12:48] <polpak> ubotu tell SuperNova about dualboot
[12:48] <foampeace> Seveas: i found it https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot?highlight=%28chroot%29
[12:48] <SuperNova> does ubuntu require a separate partition for swap?
[12:48] <Teclis> kemik: I will try. Thank you.
[12:48] <Diffindo> something like that.
[12:48] <cary_> SEJeff, Sorry, user cary may not run sudo on localhost.
[12:48] <polpak> SuperNova, it is generally recommended
[12:48] <SEJeff> cary_: you aren't in the admin group, strange. the admin group is what gives you sudo access
[12:48] <mwe> metho: or point to your account name and see the options for status for it?
[12:48] <metho> mwe: i can and its set online atm but i cannot see any of my contacts
[12:48] <cary> SEJeff, well i added that line. should i pasteboard my group file?
[12:49] <SEJeff> cary_, pastebin /etc/group and /etc/sudoers
[12:49] <metho> kopete is gray atm
[12:49] <SuperNova> polpak okey...
[12:49] <grayman> hey. any idea why dvd can lag when using mplayer?
[12:49] <odat> grayman, dma
[12:49] <grayman> also why it gives video noise
[12:49] <polpak> SEJeff, sudoers is fine AFAIK cary just somehow removed the admin group.
[12:49] <SuperNova> but all this is included in the ubutu install? i mean format and partition software..
[12:49] <SEJeff> cary, and how did you manage to delete your admin group anyways?
[12:49] <SEJeff> polpak, thanks
[12:50] <polpak> SuperNova, yes
[12:50] <SuperNova> okey nice...
[12:50] <mwe> metho: well I don't know why that is. don't use yahoo msngr myself. I see my buddies in icq though and in msn too
[12:50] <grayman> odat, and how to solve it?
[12:50] <BaalBehrit> hey.. i have wireless net, and it has a very bad signal to access point. so i have to change bit rate from 11 mb/s to 1 mb/s to work, but in ubuntu, it won`t do it, when i do iwconfig, it still says 11 mb/s. i tried in win, and it works, but it ubuntu it won`t. i changed rate with command iwconfig wlan0 rate 1 fixed.. what is the solution for this?
[12:50] <ubuntu_JONSON> anyoone know one program for centrino support for injetk packet (airodump not support)

[12:52] <SEJeff> cary_, on your system, group id 106 is crontab, on mine, crontab is 107 and admin is 106. That is your problem
[12:52] <zezu> modules loaded by the kernel by default like glx are not listed in lsmod ?
[12:52] <micahf> hey what do people think of this icon?
[12:52] <micahf> http://micahfitch.com/include/design/caminoicon.png
[12:52] <zezu> only .so files maybe ?
[12:52] <micahf> for camino the web browser
[12:53] <cary> SEJeff, so reboot, change admin to 107? what can i do?
[12:53] <polpak> SEJeff, but changing crontab to 107 will still be a problem because ssh is 107 cary's system
[12:53] <SEJeff> cary_, You're going to need to reboot again so that you can edit /etc/group. Change 106 on the admin line to be 113
[12:53] <Teclis> kemik: no. I have deleted the .bmpx directory, that worked for me
[12:53] <metho> mwe: msn works fine but yahoo doesnt work at all
[12:53] <polpak> SEJeff, yeah, that'll work
[12:53] <SEJeff> polpak, Yes, I noticed that. So I picked 113 because it's the first available
[12:53] <mwe> metho: I don't know why. could it be a firewall issue maybe?
[12:54] <cary> SEJeff, doing that now
[12:54] <mwe> metho: I'm just guessing though
[12:54] <SEJeff> cary, Make sense what the problem is?
[12:54] <monkey050> Can I get some help with the Hoary LiveCD??
[12:54] <SEJeff> monkey050, Just out of curiosity, why aren't you using the breezy livecd?
[12:54] <foampeace>  sudo debootstrap [--variant=buildd]  [--arch i386]  breezy /var/chroot/ http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[12:54] <cary> SEJeff, yeah, like back in the day if something had the same IRQ or something
[12:54] <monkey050> Because I CBA to download it and I have the Hoary one available to me.
[12:54] <foampeace> E: No such script: breezy
[12:54] <SEJeff> monkey050, huge difference between the two
[12:55] <monkey050> I'm not concerned about the version.
[12:55] <SEJeff> cary, yeah, similar.
[12:55] <Teclis> kemik: Thanks for your help. :)
[12:55] <foampeace> who understands my error?
[12:55] <cary> SEJeff, basically two things have the same ID, right?
[12:55] <SEJeff> monkey050, Well the breezy livecd is much better than the hoary one. Using a newer one might fix your problems. Even though you never told us what your problem is
[12:55] <metho> mwe: no problem, i am reinstall and install again just to make sure if it is correctly installed
[12:55] <SEJeff> cary, correct
[12:56] <monkey050> Well, I've posted a thread in the forum which has gone 100% ignored...
[12:56] <SEJeff> cary, you just needed to make the admin group (the group with full sudo access) have a unique group id
[12:56] <theholylancer> hello
[12:56] <monkey050> I can't get it to show up, whatever's suppossed to show up after it goes through all the [ OK ]  things.
[12:56] <cary> SEJeff incidnetally, is there a way to modify grub to make windows the default boot? in case someone needs on that machine
[12:56] <SEJeff> cary, sure, thats easy
[12:56] <theholylancer> can anyone tell me ehy i cannot access the gnome termonal?
[12:57] <CodenameKT> monkey050: trust me in saying most likely no one has looked at it for it to be ignored
[12:57] <SEJeff> cary, sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:57] <monkey050> There's only 1 view, CodenameKT.
[12:57] <monkey050> OK well now there's 9 now that I mentioned it.
[12:57] <cary> SEJeff, can i do that from within the ubuntu GUI?
[12:57] <CodenameKT> monkey050: so then only one person ignored ur problem or it is possible he did not have the answer
[12:57] <SEJeff> cary, not yet
[12:58] <monkey050> Ok, so that's why I'm asking here.
[12:58] <cary> SEJeff, or is that in recovery mode too
[12:58] <CodenameKT> monkey050: Your problem?
[12:58] <sadowski> help me, pm please
[12:58] <monkey050> I can't get whatever's suppossed to show up to show up.
[12:58] <theholylancer> where could i find the linux command line terminal within ubuntu?
[12:58] <SEJeff> cary, oh. No. do that in the gui unless you want to use nano. It's very easy in either or
[12:58] <monkey050> I have to skip PCMCIA autodetect for it to get all the way to starting the Live session.
[12:58] <CodenameKT> monkey050: Try to be specific. You can't even get the login screen to show?
[12:58] <sadowski> can someone help me set up my sound?
[12:58] <theholylancer> where i can use commands like ps or something?
[12:58] <bimberi> theholylancer: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[12:58] <monkey050> That's correct.
[12:58] <cary> theholylancer, i know this one! un applications > acc
[12:58] <cary> crap...someone beat me to it
[12:58] <cary> its like the one thing i know
[12:58] <monkey050> It'll just show a black screen and the CD stops spinning.
[12:58] <SEJeff> cary, type sudo -l again to make sure you have sudo access
[12:58] <theholylancer> o thank you!
[12:58] <bimberi> sorry cary :)
[12:59] <cary> bimberi, no worries. hah.
[12:59] <monkey050> I have a Sony VAIO VGN-FS780/W.
[12:59] <cary> SEJeff, my next problem is my screen res..but i think i coudlnt fix that last time as i didnt have sudo access
[12:59] <theholylancer> thanks all happy new year!
[12:59] <monkey050> The graphics card on it is a GeForce Go 6400.
[12:59] <sadowski> can someone help me set up my sound?
[12:59] <monkey050> I don't know if that makes a difference, but it seems like it goes through the setup fine until it's ready to load its logon screen or whatever.
[01:00] <SEJeff> cary, reboot back into x and the resolution should be pretty easy to fix from the gui
[01:00] <bimberi> !sound
[01:00] <ubotu> I guess sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[01:00] <cary____> SEJeff, YOUVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME
[01:00] <SEJeff> monkey050, Try the breezy livecd if you can download it. It might be a framebuffer issue that is fixed in a newer version of ubuntu
[01:00] <sadowski> bimberi: I've read those, they didnt help
[01:00] <cary____> SEJeff, the resi need isnt listed under screen res's
[01:01] <CodenameKT> monkey050: it is possible your media is bad. Seeing as how it is hoary you probably burned it awhile ago anywho. I would suggest before continuing to ask about this to get a version of breezy live cd and when burning do it at like 2x make sure the media is perfect and try again with latest
[01:01] <SEJeff> cary, System --> Preferences --> Screen Resolution
[01:01] <bimberi> sadowski: ok :(
[01:01] <cary> SEJeff, is telling me i cant sudo on localhost
[01:01] <SEJeff> cary, So you have to add it in xorg.conf and then restart X
[01:01] <cary> cary@lindex:~$ sudo -l
[01:01] <cary> Sorry, user cary may not run sudo on localhost.
[01:01] <SEJeff> cary, type 'groups cary'
[01:01] <monkey050> Meh.
[01:01] <cary> SEJeff, admin is listed now
[01:01] <monkey050> I don't know when I'm gonna get the time to do that, CodenameKT.
[01:01] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: I just went through setting up sound on my box... what's the problem you're having?
[01:01] <cary> synaptic gui window still doesnt open SEJeff
[01:02] <SEJeff> cary, synaptic is an administrative tool. If sudo isn't working, neither is synaptic
[01:02] <cary> SEJeff, doesnt even say "starting..."
[01:02] <monkey050> And I wouldn't know how to control the burn speed in the first place.  >_<
[01:02] <cary> SEJeff, well users and groups acts like it starts and then fails again
[01:02] <SEJeff> cary, Synaptic uses gksudo which uses sudo to open up with admin priviliges
[01:02] <monkey050> I downloaded the CD Image and burned it at my school.
[01:02] <xiaogil> somebody knows how to make work a wintv usb on ubuntu ?
[01:03] <CodenameKT> monkey050: alcohol 120% if you are buring from windows has it as soon as u try to burn disk
[01:03] <SEJeff> cary, You're problem makes 0 sense. Something happened to your computer. If there is nothing important on it, reinstall
[01:03] <SEJeff> cary, Are you still in recovery mode?
[01:03] <cary_> SEJeff, im back to GUI
[01:03] <CodenameKT> monkey050: do u have a burner at home?
[01:03] <SEJeff> cary_, you should have typed sudo -l before rebooting to make sure it was fixed :)
[01:03] <mikul> where should my wine config file be? i cant find it after installing wine..
[01:03] <monkey050> DVD+-RW
[01:04] <CodenameKT> monkey050: but not dsl?
[01:04] <SEJeff> mikul type winecfg
[01:04] <monkey050> Yes DSL
[01:04] <pjay_uk> just type winecfg in te
[01:04] <mikul> do i have to create one myself or what?
[01:04] <monkey050> But It's only 150Kbps and not fast enough for me!
[01:04] <CodenameKT> monkey050: so why not dl and burn at you home?
[01:04] <cary_> SEJeff.. ahahahaaha. im retarded.
[01:04] <sadowski> pumpernickle: well my sound card was detected and whatnot, but im getting no output
[01:04] <monkey050> CodenameKT, because I don't have the time to do it.
[01:04] <SEJeff> cary_, do enlighten me?
[01:04] <mikul> ok
[01:04] <mikul> , will try
[01:04] <monkey050> I don't leave my computer running for any reason anymore considering what happened to my old Sony.
[01:04] <cary> SEJeff, rebooting agian. woohoo
[01:05] <jahshua--> monkey: what happened to it?
[01:05] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: Have you tried running alsamixer and checking for muted channels?
[01:05] <monkey050> Something messed up with the harddrive first.
[01:05] <monkey050> Then something messed up during a windows Chkdsk
[01:05] <monkey050> Also, the right speaker blew out...
[01:05] <SEJeff> cary, I'm going to go grab some food real quick. Will brb in just a minute
[01:05] <cary> SEJeff, enlighten you on what
[01:05] <monkey050> The AC Adapter burned up...
[01:05] <CodenameKT> monkey050: I leave my computer running almost 24/7 and most common thing to go out is power supply every 12monthsd
[01:06] <bimberi> mike_: ~/.wine/config
[01:06] <SEJeff> cary, why you are retarted? for not checking to make sure you had sudo access first?
[01:06] <cary> SEJeff, okay. haha i likely wont get very far...ill just edit til you ge tback
[01:06] <monkey050> Well, this is a BRAND NEW Fall series FS laptop and I need it to run for another 5 years.
[01:06] <bimberi> mikul: ~/.wine/config (sorry mike_)
[01:06] <cary> SEJeff, i guess. i think im more uninformed than anything.
[01:06] <monkey050> So no more 24/7/365 running for this one, unless I need to access it with LogMeIn.com
[01:06] <CodenameKT> monkey050: well if it is a laptop i would suggest now running 24/7 because of battery lol
[01:06] <cary> SEJeff, but thats what i meant..the sudo -l thing
[01:06] <ubuntu_> salu tlm.................
[01:07] <mikul> bimberi, ok ;)
[01:07] <sadowski> pumpernickle: i checked for muted channels, theyre all good
[01:07] <monkey050> CodenameKT, that's what weakened the battery on the old one.
[01:07] <monkey050> _
[01:07] <cary> SEJeff you still thre?
[01:07] <mikul> should i install my windows programs as root or as my useraccount?
[01:07] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: Okay, there're a few other things I had to change to get my sound working properly.
[01:07] <CodenameKT> monkey050: understandable. Well if you don't want to use you laptop to dl the phile even tho i don't see much hurt in leaving it on one day I can't help u
[01:07] <mikul> what is best?
[01:07] <ubuntu_> chakira vous souetttttttt..b.annee
[01:08] <monkey050> Well, I guess I'll try Breezy at some point.  Maybe tomorrow after school if I get really really lucky to get the iso.
[01:08] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: One is # of channels - right click on the volume control in the menubar anbd choose "open volume control"
[01:08] <Seveas> !tell ubuntu_ about fr
[01:08] <SEJeff> cary, back
[01:08] <monkey050> But as for now I have TV shows I'm missing and homework to do.
[01:08] <monkey050> Bye
[01:08] <CodenameKT> monkey050: Itake it easy
[01:08] <cary> SEJeff when i type sudo -l it just says i can run "all" things or wahteger
[01:08] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: in that panel, select every checkbox in 'preferences'
[01:09] <SEJeff> cary, That is very good
[01:09] <SEJeff> cary, that means sudo is working
[01:09] <metho> how do u clean files that are not required anymore, for example useless files of software etc
[01:09] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: Then set the right number of channels in the drop-down menu in the options tab
[01:09] <cary> SEJeff, but im also logged in as root
[01:09] <SEJeff> ok
[01:09] <cary> SEJeff, so...cary i guess isnt helped yet? i dont get why my GUI is being so lame
[01:09] <SEJeff> do nano /etc/sudoers
[01:09] <SEJeff> cary, I will show you a way to fix this
[01:09] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: If you have more than two speakers, under teh switches tab, check 'duplicate front'
[01:10] <cary> SEJeff, it says i have to edit with visudo
[01:10] <SEJeff> cary, ok. 'export EDITOR=nano; visudo'
[01:10] <sadowski> pumpernickle: so far so good, except it doesnt say anything about a number of channels
[01:11] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: I'm going to post a few screenshots to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ to show what I mean, then...
[01:11] <CosmoDad> metho: purging packages usually deletes all configuration files, i.e. sudo aptitude purge <package>
[01:11] <cary> SEJeff so i guess its open?
[01:12] <cary> SEJeff at the bottom is not hashed out. it says "root   ALL=(ALL) ALL
[01:12] <cary> "
[01:12] <sadowski> pumpernickle: alright

[01:17] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: Can you paste a screenshot of your settings to the pastebin?
[01:17] <SEJeff> cary, yes
[01:19] <B-166_ER-X> my problem, might or might not be related to my k3b bug : aMSN (no, not the freezing bug) ... when i try to run it in terminal it makes : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6553 , but if i run it in Sudo, ir runs ok... but says 2 line about destroying .mi and .si , as you can see in the screenshot
[01:19] <UbuntuMike> I tried to edit fstab so that I could see the files in the windows partiton which is ntfs, it seems to have mounted it into the location that I set, but it says that there are no files in the folder and the contents is "unreadable" in the properties I have the options noatime,noexec,nosuid,nodev set in fstab. Any thoughts
[01:19] <sadowski> pumpernickle: posted
[01:19] <fmasi> nead help whith skype output could some one help me
[01:20] <UbuntuMike> ps. sorry about the formating, I will punctuate from now on
[01:20] <SEJeff> UbuntuMike: paste the contents of /etc/fstab onto www.pastebin.com
[01:20] <axylfyre> is it possible to go take files from a virtual machine back into windows?
[01:21] <UbuntuMike> I have pasted it up
[01:21] <SEJeff> UbuntuMike, I need a url :)
[01:21] <UbuntuMike> http://pastebin.com/489452
[01:22] <SEJeff> UbuntuMike, type 'id -u' in a terminal. I'm going to guess and say the output says 1000
[01:22] <cary_> SEJeff, WOOHOO
[01:22] <cary_> SEJeff, updating packages now
[01:22] <UbuntuMike> yes, it says 1000
[01:22] <SEJeff> cary_, sweetness
[01:22] <cary_> SEJeff, thanks so much
[01:22] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: hmm... does this help? http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=78582&highlight=ich4+alsa
[01:23] <cary_> SEJeff, now...what did i need to open to add my res?
[01:23] <SEJeff> UbuntuMike, at the end of your mount options, add uid=1000
[01:23] <cary_> xorg.conf? SEJeff where is that?
[01:24] <UbuntuMike> thanks, I will try that
[01:24] <SEJeff> UbuntuMike, then you will need to manually unmount and remount that partitions
[01:24] <SEJeff> cary_, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:24] <UbuntuMike> oh god, how do I do that?
[01:25] <SEJeff> UbuntuMike, type sudo -s
[01:25] <UbuntuMike> OK, I'm in the root
[01:25] <SEJeff> UbuntuMike, 'umount /home/michael/winxp' to unmount. 'mount /home/michael/winxp' to remount it
[01:26] <cary_> SEJeff, okay i have the file open ..should i just add "1920x1440" to the res lists?
[01:26] <polpak> SEJeff, if it's in fstab he shouldn't have to be root to mount it
[01:27] <UbuntuMike> righty ho, that is all done wihtout a hitch
[01:27] <SEJeff> polpak, one of those oddities of pmount?
[01:27] <SEJeff> polpak, I'm used to the old way I guess
[01:27] <SEJeff> polpak, thanks though. I didn't know that
[01:29] <b0o> Does anyone have any experience will Dell laptops, specifically I've got an inspiron 2600 that doesn't seem to be working with the acpi....it's an old firmware so maybe I need to upgrade?
[01:29] <UbuntuMike> Is that everything I have to do, SEJeff?
[01:29] <SEJeff> UbuntuMike, yeah that should be it
[01:30] <polpak> SEJeff, you have to specify specific options in fstab to allow users to mount it I think
[01:30] <polpak> SEJeff, I'm double checking
[01:30] <UbuntuMike> thank you very much SEJeff, it works!
[01:30] <tonyyarusso> In the Windows file manager Explorer, if I wanted to select files 1-5 and 10-15 in a directory at the same time, I could click 1, Shift-click 5, Ctrl-click 10, then Ctrl-Shift-click 15.  If I do this in Gnome, I end up with only 1-5, 10, & 15, without 11-14.  How can I select two ranges of files in Nautilus?
[01:31] <polpak> SEJeff, yeah, if you put users in the option it will allow any user to mount or unmount the system
[01:31] <SEJeff> polpak, users is the fstab option, but ntfs is weird. the uid option always works, so thats what I tell people
[01:31] <polpak> SEJeff, if you put user it will allow the specific user
[01:31] <polpak> SEJeff, no, uid is to set the ownership of the files in the newly mounted partition
[01:31] <zezu> (EE) fglrx(0): [agp]  unable to acquire AGP, error "xf86_EINVAL"
[01:31] <zezu> anyone know why this happens ?
[01:31] <polpak> SEJeff, not to control who can mount/umount it
[01:32] <SEJeff> polpak, I realize that. With the uid as the current user, it works fine. I had an issue several months ago when I added the user option after reading man fstab
[01:32] <fmasi> nead help whith skype output could some one help me
[01:32] <PuMpErNiCkLe> tonyyarusso: click outside the filename and drag a selection box over the files?
[01:33] <SEJeff> polpak, that was on Appos though and AppOS is a bit weird in everything
[01:33] <polpak> SEJeff, you'd have to use both the user and uid option
[01:33] <chorse> i'm trying to create a dvd image. nautilus cannot create the image because of some illegal file names. how can i see which file names are incorrect?
[01:33] <Yova> SEJeff is it posible to use gid instead of uid?
[01:33] <tonyyarusso> PuMpErNiCkLe, All right, that worked for Icons view, but in list I can't click outside of the file.
[01:34] <Toma-> chorse: try using gnomebaker instead. you can then specify a better filesystem for the dvd
[01:34] <SEJeff> polpak, from personal experience, uid worked and user did not work for me. user works for cdroms / floppy disks but it didn't work for me on an ntfs partition
[01:34] <SEJeff> polpak, but it might have been an oddity of AppOS, a very customized linux distro
[01:34] <TengkSA> If one reinstalls windows will Ubuntu be unaffected and still be listed in boot menu?
[01:34] <fmasi> some one could help me set up mu aoss
[01:34] <polpak> SEJeff, if you use both user=1000 and uid=1000 then that would allow the user with id 1000 to mount and unmount the directory. The files in the filesystem would be owned by user id 1000
[01:35] <chorse> Toma-: i'll have a look, thx
[01:35] <polpak> SEJeff, it's just nice to use user cause it means he doesn't have to sudo to mount/umount it
[01:35] <cary__> SEJeff, so i tried to edit the conf file and my screen res list remains unchanged
[01:35] <SEJeff> polpak, I just added user. I didn't know that the user option took uids.
[01:36] <sadowski> pumpernickle: nah, nothin
[01:36] <bimberi> TengkSA: a windows reinstall will remove grub (the boot loader) but this can be recovered - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[01:36] <cary> SEJeff, and its quite annoying
[01:36] <robertj> doh backup server is going click ... click... click :(
[01:36] <SEJeff> polpak, but if the volume is in /etc/fstab, they will never mount / umount it anyways so it doesn't matter
[01:36] <polpak> SEJeff, I suppose that's true. I'm more used to setting them up for smbfs directories
[01:36] <SEJeff> cary, hit CTRL ALT Backspace to kill X and restart it. Then log back in and try to look at the Screen Resolution Pref
[01:37] <cary__> SEJeff, i ddi that already
[01:37] <polpak> SEJeff, where the mounted location is not always accessable
[01:37] <SEJeff> cary__, xorg isn't my area of expertise, sorry
[01:37] <cary__> SEJeff,  one more try at something. hold
[01:38] <tonyyarusso> PuMpErNiCkLe, Should I take it as a hint if the Yelp documentation browser for Gnome doesn't mention such a task on the Nautilus > Selecting files section?
[01:38] <SEJeff> polpak, I've set up ncpfs and nfs, haven't had a need to play with samba yet
[01:38] <PuMpErNiCkLe> tonyyarusso: Probably :)
[01:38] <PuMpErNiCkLe> sadowski: :(
[01:39] <cary__> SEJeff, WOOHOO. i missed one modes line in my editing. all works now.
[01:39] <polpak> SEJeff, I tend to use samba shares instead of nfs shares on my LAN is why.. It plays nice with other OSes and doesn't require client daemons to be running
[01:39] <polpak> cary__ glad to hear it
[01:39] <tonyyarusso> PuMpErNiCkLe, Shoot.  Oh well.
[01:40] <SEJeff> polpak, All of the hosts I deal with (work and home) are Linux, Unix, or BSD.
[01:40] <tonyyarusso> All right, who do I contact about trying to get a really simple thing added to Gnome/Nautilus?
[01:40] <polpak> SEJeff, I've got some Mac users =p
[01:40] <Coag> !firefox
[01:40] <ubotu> firefox is probably a Free Software web browser that supports extensions and is gaining popularity by the hour. Developed by the Mozilla Foundation. For firefox 1.5, look at !firefox1.5
[01:40] <Coag> !firefox1.5
[01:40] <ubotu> You can update to firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[01:40] <cary__> SEJeff, polpak, thanks for all the help. ill be back im sure. maybe one day I can help people. ha
[01:41] <polpak> cary__, once you get your head wrapped around the basics it becomes a bit easiser
[01:41] <polpak> cary__, have fun =)
[01:41] <SEJeff> cary__, it's not that hard really. Just keep learning and read a lot
[01:42] <tonyyarusso> !nautilus
[01:42] <ubotu> tonyyarusso: I don't know, could you explain it?
[01:42] <tonyyarusso> !gnome
[01:42] <ubotu> tonyyarusso: I don't know
[01:42] <tonyyarusso> You've got to be kidding me.
[01:42] <Morinex> Ubuntu sucks
[01:42] <Morinex> fuck Ubuntu
[01:42] <polpak> Morinex, lol
[01:42] <Morinex> fuck the stuff of ubuntu
[01:42] <polpak> Morinex, bye
[01:42] <Morinex> *staff
[01:42] <Morinex> :D
[01:42] <Morinex> fuckers
[01:42] <Morinex> :P
[01:42] <tonyyarusso> Morinex: Watch the language.
[01:42] <mwe> tonyyarusso: use !info foobar
[01:42] <tonyyarusso> !bannable
[01:43] <cary__> polpak, SEJeff, one more thing... the partition of the drive where i have linux...well that freaks the crap out of my win2k box. like the other part's read..but it lags the system like crazy trying to figure out whats going on with that drive. is there anyway to make windows ignore that drive? i guess thats a windows question
[01:43] <Morinex> :O
[01:43] <Morinex> fuck linux
[01:43] <Morinex> fuck ubuntu
[01:43] <franky123> lol
[01:43] <tonyyarusso> !tell Morinex about bannable
[01:43] <psusi> by by ass
[01:43] <Morinex> :D
[01:43] <navarone> Morinex you spelt your name wrong moron
[01:43] <sampan> and there goes another microsoft employee
[01:43] <navarone> sad
[01:43] <crimsun> life goes on.
[01:43] <tonyyarusso> mwe: Ah right, thanks.
[01:44] <psusi> cary, if the partition type is set to linux then windows ignores it
[01:44] <polpak> cary__, it's odd that it even tries to look at it
[01:44] <metho> is there a good ubuntu program for listening online radio channels!!!
[01:44] <SEJeff> metho, rhythmbox
[01:44] <franky123> metho: rhythmbox would work?
[01:44] <cary__> polpak, its one of three partitions on an ntfs drive, its ext3 obviously.
[01:44] <sadowski> pumpernickle: thanx anyway, i gtg
[01:44] <metho> ok, thanks!
[01:45] <polpak> cary__, is the partition type set correctly?
[01:45] <polpak> cary__, sudo fdisk /dev/drivename
[01:45] <cary__> polpak, how do you mean? set where? i mean i obvous am able to boot
[01:45] <polpak> cary__, then p to print the partition info
[01:45] <mwe> crimsun: do you if wpasupplicant works with the 2.6.15 kernel?
[01:46] <polpak> cary__, I can't imagine that the partition type would be ntfs but actually formatted ext3, but nothing else about your system has been typical, so....
[01:46] <metho> rhythmbox only found two radio channel, is that what it suppose to find or have
[01:46] <polpak> metho, you have to give it the url for the station
[01:46] <crimsun> mwe: yes, I made sure it does before I uploaded
[01:47] <crimsun> mwe: the only changes necessary should be ipw -> wext
[01:47] <mwe> crimsun: great
[01:47] <cary__> polpak, hda1 > ntfs, hda2 > ext3, hda5 > htfs, hda6 > linux
[01:47] <metho> polpak: danm that is hard, i dont know even know to find a URL for a radio, lol, well time to learn i guess!!!
[01:47] <cary__> where hda3 and 4 are, i dont know polpak
[01:48] <mikul> damn! i can still not find a .wine/config file! i think i need to take a look in it but i cant find it. because when i try to run photoshop 7 i get err:dc:CreateDCW no driver found for L"\\\\.\\DISPLAY1"
[01:48] <franky123> mikul: apt-get winesetuptk
[01:48] <mikul> ok
[01:49] <polpak> cary__, well hda1-3 are reserved for primary partitions, and hda5-12 or whatever is for logical partitions
[01:49] <franky123> mikul: it will ask you a few questions and make you a config file
[01:49] <metho> polpak: i am getting the following error, "couldnt stop playback
[01:49] <polpak> cary__, go ahead and quit fdisk
[01:49] <mikul> ok! thanks!
[01:49] <polpak> cary__, I'd recommend apt-get gparted
[01:49] <navarone> metho you can try www.shoutcast.com but I dunno if rhtymbox is compatible with those streams
[01:49] <SEJeff> mike_, look in the directory that winecfg created. winecfg supercedes winesetuptk
[01:49] <mikul> franky123,  just what i need ;)
[01:49] <polpak> cary__, and use it to get a visual view of the drive
[01:49] <mikul> i hope :p
[01:50] <mike_> stop saying muh name!
[01:50] <metho> navarone: so i basically add this URL in rythmbox
[01:50] <raphink> s/apt-get/apt-get install/
[01:50] <SEJeff> mikul, I meant to tell you that winecfg supercedes winesetuptk
[01:51] <franky123> mikul: the problem is that for some reason winesetuptk package uninstalls wine ... at least for me. so i used it, copied the config file, reinstalled wine, copied it back ....
[01:51] <franky123> SEJeff: really... i'll try that
[01:51] <cary> gotta go for a while
[01:51] <polpak> franky123, if you're wanting to use wine, I'd recommend using the winehq repos and installing wine and winetools
[01:51] <polpak> franky123, it makes it much easier to setup and configure
[01:52] <knoppix> hey
[01:52] <SEJeff> franky123, winecfg is pretty decent.
[01:52] <knoppix> hey
[01:52] <mikul> franky123, ok, thanks for the warning ;)
[01:52] <knoppix> i need some help with reinstalling my grub
[01:52] <franky123> polpak: i will try that. sejeff: is winecfg in the ubuntu repos or the wine repos?
[01:52] <polpak> SEJeff, yeah, for the configuration it works well, but there a bunch of peripheral software than many apps need (DCOM98, IE, etc)
[01:52] <navarone> metho...shoutcast has urls to various internet radio stations ...but I do not know if r-box is compatible with those formats
[01:53] <polpak> franky123, winecfg is in both
[01:53] <SEJeff> franky123, If you install wine from the default ubu repos, it installs winecfg with it
[01:53] <knoppix> a few days ago i was in here and a tony guy gave me a link to reinstalling grub after an install of windows...
[01:53] <franky123> strange ... i cant find it
[01:53] <polpak> franky123, it's part of the wine package
[01:53] <polpak> franky123, it's not a separate package
[01:53] <SEJeff> polpak, yes, so you install them too
[01:53] <tonyyarusso> !tell knoppix about grub
[01:53] <franky123> polpak: oh. there we go.
[01:53] <nemik> what app would you guys use to read binary files?
[01:53] <polpak> SEJeff, I know.   How much can you do?
[01:54] <knoppix> what do you mean how much can i do...?
[01:55] <lucasvo> when I install ubuntu server, how can I use lvm to make 2 partitions?
[01:55] <SWAT> what are the minimum requirements of a ubuntu breezy server install? (would 166Mhz, 32MB EDO suffice?)
[01:55] <tonyyarusso> knoppix, Where do you first run into trouble, etc.  Are you currently booted into Windows/some other OS or a Live CD?
[01:56] <franky123> umm i've got some general questions about the way ubuntu handles permissions. first why when i copy files from a cd they are all 444? and why wont nautilus let me mount the floppy drive ( i have to do it from terminal). and why does ubuntu use /media/ isntead of /mnt ? lots of newbie questions, thanks :)
[01:56] <navarone> knoppix...you need to know what partition holds ubuntu so you can mount it...you boot install cd...type rescue and then use "mkdir" to make a temp dir then mount partition into that dir...then you reinstall grub
[01:56] <knoppix> i had to reinstall my windows xp because it got messed up with some virii a few days ago... right now im on a live cd
[01:57] <knoppix> i printed out my fstab before i did the reinstall just in case this happened
[01:57] <navarone> knoppix assuming you can find ubuntu partition in live cd you can do it thru it
[01:57] <SEJeff> franky123, pmount in breezy has issues and thats why nautilus is stupid with floppies. I can give you a url to an updated deb for pmount in breezy if you want
[01:57] <navarone> knoppix...paste your fstab in pastebin
[01:57] <navarone> Ipastebin
[01:57] <knoppix> i have the drives...i can get into the grub list... im just wondering how to make it be reloaded into my mbr
[01:57] <navarone> oops
[01:57] <navarone> !pastebin
[01:57] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[01:57] <tonyyarusso> knoppix, Good move printing the fstab.
[01:58] <navarone> knoppix...sudo grub-install hda1
[01:58] <franky123> SEJeff: please do
[01:58] <navarone> I think hda1 or maybe just hda
[01:58] <tonyyarusso> knoppix, And the (I think it's) grub-reinstall doesn't work?
[01:58] <knoppix> i was just looking at the part about the grub menu and being able to hit esc real quick and then commenting out the unhidden menu thing... will that work
[01:58] <SEJeff> franky123, http://nanokron.info:8000/rpm-et-deb/pmount%200.9.6-1.deb this should work
[01:58] <tonyyarusso> knoppix, navarone: Just hda for the mbr.
[01:59] <knoppix> no its asking for a device and options that i dont know about apparantly
[01:59] <navarone> knoppix you also have option to install onto floppy if you have drive and disk handy
[01:59] <SEJeff> franky123, /media is for removable devices. /mnt is for network mounts. That is in the FHS I believe and thats how gnome does it
[01:59] <tonyyarusso> knoppix, See navarone's, with hda.
[01:59] <knoppix> ok lemme give that a shot
[01:59] <tonyyarusso> knoppix, That's the device, what sort of options?
[01:59] <foampeace> whats the opengl-dev file called?
[01:59] <lucasvo> when I have lvm, can I resize the partition on a running system?
[01:59] <SEJeff> franky123, nautilus copies files and retains the permissions. The files are 444 on the cd so they are 444 when you copy them
[02:00] <Epsilon> where are the mozilla libaries stored in ubuntu???
[02:00] <navarone> knoppix if you want to install on floppy type "grub-install fd0"
[02:00] <navarone> without quotes
[02:00] <polpak> franky123, the umask for the files on the cd are controlled by the automounter afaik
[02:01] <franky123> SEJeff: thanks so much. i wrote a script to chmod all files to 644 and dirs to 755. is there a better way to restore privs ?
[02:01] <knoppix> it keeps telling me invalid device
[02:01] <navarone> knoppix for floppy?
[02:01] <knoppix> no for the harddrive
[02:01] <SEJeff> polpak, you can't create files on a cd :) umask is irrelevant. Or am I wrong somehow?
[02:01] <knoppix> i dont have a floppy drive
[02:01] <navarone> what didi you type?
[02:01] <foampeace> anyone knoqw what the name of the opengl-dev file is
[02:01] <knoppix> install hda and install hda1
[02:02] <knoppix> im in the grub proggie
[02:02] <navarone> install or grun-install?
[02:02] <polpak> SEJeff, no, because the drive doesn't support unix permissions there are default ones which are used when the drive is mounted
[02:02] <navarone> grub*
[02:02] <polpak> SEJeff, which can be specified as an option to the mount command
[02:03] <yaaar> word
[02:03] <knoppix> when i do the command grub-install hda it says format of installed device not recognized
[02:03] <SEJeff> polpak, but the umask on the cd should have nothing to do with the files that are copied onto a linux partition should they?
[02:03] <pa_l> what is wrong with GFtp
[02:03] <tonyyarusso> Anyone ever tried explaining how to maintain a website using straight HTML and FTP from scratch to a 13/14 year old?  This is interesting...
[02:04] <pa_l> it never resumes the files i upload
[02:04] <bodaciousbrian> i have searched google quite a bit for an answer to this question,   Using Esound plugin for XMMS, the player will not play mp3 files, it will load them, but it doesnt even show the visual for the track playing at all.... how do i fix this?
[02:04] <bodaciousbrian> Also, totem-xine will play mp3's
[02:04] <Kyral> Use ALSA?
[02:04] <bodaciousbrian> ive tried all of the above... esound oss, also and the other one
[02:04] <polpak> SEJeff, hrm. you may be right
[02:04] <knoppix> is there like an automated way t do this?
[02:04] <franky123> tonyyarusso: who are you explaining to and why?
[02:04] <polpak> SEJeff, I'm looking at the manpage now
[02:04] <Kyral> bodaciousbrian: try Beep Media Player
[02:05] <polpak> SEJeff, I was pretty sure there was a way to do it though
[02:05] <knoppix> because im not finding anything that will work... im using knoppix... is that why?
[02:05] <tonyyarusso> franky123, The new webmaster for my old Boy Scout Troop.
[02:05] <polpak> SEJeff, ah
[02:05] <polpak> SEJeff, it's not umask
[02:05] <SEJeff> polpak, I would think that they inherit the systemwide or user specific umask
[02:05] <polpak> it's the 'mode' option
[02:06] <tonyyarusso> franky123, I did it for a few years, got old, passed it on to someone that age, who never really did bother to learn what they were doing, now they've passed it on, so I'm dealing with the next one.
[02:06] <navarone> knoppix...you have a ubuntu install cd?
[02:06] <knoppix> yeah the install cd... not the live one
[02:06] <SEJeff> polpak, I see it. Nice to know
[02:06] <bodaciousbrian> Beep is the same, will no tplay
[02:06] <polpak> SEJeff, course I'm not sure where the mount options are passed by the automounting service
[02:06] <knoppix> anytime i load the ubuntu cd it starts installing
[02:07] <franky123> tonyyarusso: its hard to teach them the concept of hypertext. las tyear i i got thrown a comp vis arts class as a filler class and half the kids ended up just drawing their entire "website" in photoshop (all the text was part of the image) ...
[02:07] <knoppix> im not trying to reinstall linux too... i did that last week after chmod 777 /usr
[02:07] <wasabi_> Hello. Trying to get my nvidia card working with a 1920x1200 monitor. No luck. Xorg says it's ignoring the modes because they are out of range.
[02:07] <knoppix> turned out that wasn't such a great idea just like reinstalling windows.....
[02:07] <foampeace> whats the name of the opengl library file?
[02:07] <polpak> wasabi_, have you installed the nvidia drivers yet?
[02:07] <UbuntuMike> I want to change the boot order of my compy, but the file /boot/grub/menu.lst is read only, is that right?
[02:07] <tonyyarusso> franky123, We haven't even gotten in to that.  We're still at how do I edit a file?    Grr.
[02:08] <wasabi_> polpak: yes. It starts, just at 1280x1024
[02:09] <wasabi_> ddcprobe also doesn't list 1920x1200
[02:09] <foampeace> polpak: i dont see it...the -dev file?
[02:09] <polpak> wasabi_, did you explicitly install nvidia drivers, or are you using the default ones
[02:09] <bodaciousbrian> wasabi_, have you tried editing your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?
[02:09] <wasabi_> dude, im using the nvidia drivers.
[02:09] <wasabi_> I'm looking for tech help, not noob stuff.
[02:09] <polpak> !resolution
[02:09] <ubotu> I guess resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:09] <wasabi_> It isn't properly reading DDC.
[02:09] <polpak> oh
[02:10] <PeteyPablo> can anyone PLEASE help me with my ipod nano, i'm trying to use GTKPOD with no sucess i have read the wiki and ireally need some help?
[02:10] <franky123> tonyyarusso: well i guess its good that computers and technology are so transparent that most people have no idea how they work ... but that means teaching is frustrating. "how could you live all these years without knowing how this thing works?
[02:10] <polpak> wasabi_, you'll have to bear with the line of questioning..  I have clearly set the proper horiz/vert things, as listed in the montiro docs, properly.
[02:12] <robotgeek> PeteyPablo: please mind your language
[02:12] <navarone> jackgrinick, I am too busy trying to help to argue tyvm...<s>
[02:12] <wasabi_> Actually I'm switching from an ATI card that worked fine. DDC found it properly.
[02:12] <byteshack> does rxvt have a rc file where I can set default config options?
[02:12] <byteshack> I can't seem to find it
[02:12] <bodaciousbrian> does anyone know why my mp3's are not working at all? except in totem where some will play for a while before i get an unexpected error?
[02:12] <PeteyPablo> robotgeek: i will, but i wont be talked down too either
[02:12] <robotgeek> byteshack: you generally  set in your .xdefaults
[02:13] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, you installed the proper codecs?
[02:13] <binarydigit> no one talked down to you PeteyPablo , i told you to ask your question through ubotu
[02:13] <PeteyPablo> can anyone PLEASE help me with my ipod nano, i'm trying to use GTKPOD with no sucess i have read the wiki and ireally need some help?
[02:13] <franky123> bodaciousbrian: they DO play in totem ... for a bit?
[02:13] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, ive installed the gstreamer codecs, thats all i know of so far, w32codecs doesnt exist for 64 bit, but i dont think thats the prob
[02:14] <mikul> i am starting to get irritated now... when i run photoshop i get this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6562
[02:14] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, yes some of them do play, but WILL screw up
[02:14] <mikul> any ideas?
[02:14] <yaaar> mikul: photoshop?
[02:14] <polpak> mikul, afaik only specific versions of photoshop are known to work
[02:15] <UbuntuMike> I want to change the boot order of my compy, but the file /boot/grub/menu.lst is read only, how can I change it?
[02:15] <polpak> UbuntuMike, sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:15] <robotgeek> bodaciousbrian: screw up?
[02:15] <yaaar> UbuntuMike: are you root?
[02:16] <UbuntuMike> oh, I get it now, thanks everyone
[02:16] <bodaciousbrian> UbuntuMike, use sudo gedit /boot/gub.menu.lst, be careful though
[02:16] <polpak> UbuntuMike, I'd definately make a backup
[02:16] <UbuntuMike> I'm really not used to all this root user stuff
[02:16] <bodaciousbrian> robotgeek, Unexpected error, suddenly stops and makes me close totem-xine
[02:16] <mikul> polpak, photoshop 7
[02:16] <polpak> UbuntuMike, there is a method to the madnes
[02:16] <robotgeek> bodaciousbrian: are you able to play them using xmms?
[02:16] <franky123> UbuntuMike: you will get used to it :)
[02:17] <UbuntuMike> Thanks everyone for the help
[02:17] <bodaciousbrian> robotgeek, not at all.... doesnt even attempt to play the files, but it does load them
[02:17] <SEJeff> cary, Still here?
[02:17] <bodaciousbrian> robotgeek, ive tried using all the output plugins, esound, oss, and alsa
[02:17] <robotgeek> bodaciousbrian: hmm, interesting
[02:17] <wasabi_> j #nvidia
[02:17] <PeteyPablo> can anyone PLEASE help me with my ipod nano, i'm trying to use GTKPOD with no sucess i have read the wiki and ireally need some help?
[02:17] <polpak> mikul, I think 7 can work
[02:18] <wibble> i've installed breezy badger on an amd64 machine today and have just noticed a spurious duplicate of /usr/bin/xargs in /usr/bin/X11/xargs.  any ideas why ?  should i report in bugzilla ?
[02:18] <bodaciousbrian> what is the codec package that would contain mp3 decoders?
[02:18] <polpak> mikul, I've not tried it myself, but crossover office supports it (which is a good sign)
[02:18] <polpak> mikul, are you using the winehq versions, or the ones from the ubuntu repo?
[02:18] <polpak> ubotu tell bodaciousbrian about mp3
[02:18] <hydroksyde> anybody ever tried selling second hand refurbished computers with ubunutu linux installed?
[02:19] <mikul> yeah they say so... but what i am trying to figure out is what the error message is meaning... cant understand what it means and what i shall do to get it working.
[02:19] <franky123> bodaciousbrian: uhhh ... ffmpeg mjpegtools lame gstreamer0.8-lame ...
[02:19] <mikul> polpak, just wrote apt-get install wine
[02:19] <mikul> :P
[02:19] <navarone> PeteyPablo, try this thread and see if it offers anything useful http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=363962
[02:19] <polpak> mikul, you didn't enable the winehq repos first or?
[02:20] <mikul> polpak, no, what is that?
[02:20] <polpak> mikul, http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[02:21] <polpak> mikul, you will probably need winetools too
[02:22] <mikul> polpak, i have tried to install it with winetools too but i got the same problem.
[02:22] <polpak> mikul, did you install the dcom library ?
[02:23] <ben_underscore> hydroksyde, no but my employer is going to donate old machines to charity with ubuntu on them
[02:23] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, pollpak all suggested packages were downloaded, no luck
[02:24] <mikul> polpak, no, dont think so... what is that?
[02:24] <bodaciousbrian> ill try to get w32 codecs, but that wont work on a 64-bit installation will it?
[02:24] <polpak> mikul, if you use winetools and go into the 'base installation' section
[02:25] <sagar> man i've never had problems with ubuntu but all fo the sudden, i'm ahving a super hard time reinstalling it
[02:25] <polpak> mikul, it gives you options to install some libraries which most applications will need
[02:25] <navarone> sagar why reinstall if you had no problems?
[02:25] <polpak> mikul, like the microsoft foundation classes, and dcom, etc
[02:25] <franky123> bodaciousbrian: you;re using also and esd right?
[02:26] <sagar> navarone i added a new hd and i decided i might as well reorganize all my data
[02:26] <navarone> sagar what difficulties are you ahving?
[02:26] <foxgamer> Hi all. I have an error 13 on my grub loader trying to load ubuntu. Anyone able to help? TIA
[02:26] <mikul> polpak, ok... w8 a minute and i will take a look at winetools again.
[02:26] <AtomicB_> anybody up for giving me a quick hand with a fresh breezy install and an NVidia CK8S (I'm getting no sound)
[02:26] <franky123> *alsa
[02:26] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, and oss, restarting after selecting each, none will work
[02:27] <Jared> Hello
[02:27] <sagar> navarone well i had a bunch of problems with random errors during install...due to a scratched disk i'm guessing; then i tried a new disk but i forgot to burn it at 8x...so i redid it.. i kept getting errors in my kernel with like, "could not set terminal font" and random tghings like that...the last error i got was somethign about being unabl eto copy the kernel image over
[02:27] <franky123> bodaciousbrian: haveyou tried killing esd?
[02:28] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, nope
[02:28] <franky123> killall esd and then try playing it again
[02:28] <franky123> note that without esd only one sound can play at a time ... but at least it will play
[02:28] <wibble> hm.  the two xargs, /usr/bin/xargs and /usr/bin/X11/xargs, have the same inode; one is a hardlink.
[02:29] <navarone> saagr are you installing on new drive or reinstalling on old?
[02:29] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, no luck
[02:30] <franky123> bodaciousbrian: esd & and see if it makes the startup sound properly ?
[02:30] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, huh?
[02:30] <sagar> navarone i made the partition larger on the old and im reinstalling on it
[02:31] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, ohh cool, yeah that make a sound
[02:31] <franky123> bodaciousbrian: go to terminal and type "esd &" that will run esd in the background. it should make this electronic sound noise when it starts up.
[02:31] <AtomicB_> can somone help me with a fresh breezy install and an NVidia CK8S? (I'm getting no sound, but it seems installed ok)
[02:31] <mikul> polpak, yes i did install all of them ;)
[02:31] <crimsun> AtomicB_: pastebin the output from ``amixer''
[02:31] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, the thing is it wont even Begin to play the mp3 file in xmms, and now my wife sjut her comp off that contains my mp3's
[02:32] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, and i suddenly realized, this happend to me before, and the mp3files had to be local on my macine
[02:32] <franky123> bodaciousbrian: xmms has some problems with ubuntu i think ...
[02:32] <strider> Anyone on Dapper now?
[02:32] <crimsun> strider: yes
[02:32] <AtomicB_> how does one do that? sorry I've never been near a linux pc with a sound card, and I've not been near linux in general for ages
[02:32] <polpak> mikul, hrm... I'm at a loss then
[02:32] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, im starting her comp back up, i think it will work if i coopy the file to my machine
[02:32] <strider> crimsun: did you get the open office updates today?
[02:33] <zezu> as long as i have dri disabled then i have no problems with stupid fglrx driver but no accell ;|
[02:33] <crimsun> AtomicB_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org is a Web site.  Then give me the url you used.
[02:33] <crimsun> strider: yes
[02:33] <AtomicB_> crimsun, thankyou, a moment please :)
[02:33] <strider> crimsun: Installed cleanly?
[02:33] <crimsun> strider: yes
[02:33] <strider> hmm
[02:33] <foxgamer> Anyone know about grub errors?
[02:33] <franky123> what kind of grub errors?
[02:33] <navarone> sagar...did you foramt partition before attempting to reinstall? Maybe a clean slate would make things smoother...? <>
[02:34] <crimsun> strider: works fine, too (at least Writer does)
[02:34] <zezu> does _anyone_ have a radeon 9800 working w/ fglrx that i can see their xorg.conf ?
[02:34] <foxgamer> franky123, I'm getting an error 13
[02:34] <navarone> foxgamer can you copy and paste your fstab into pastebin for us to see?
[02:34] <zezu> i'm going to try recompiling this damn kernel w/ another agp in a minute
[02:35] <nekostar> i wish i could get ubuntu to install on my laptop !_!
[02:35] <AtomicB_> crimsun, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6564
[02:35] <zezu> it seems that might be what is screwing shit up
[02:35] <mikul> polpak, i got a little longer now... i changed from win2k in the config in winetools to win98(same as in th config file) and now i am getting this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6563
[02:35] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, Yeah that is Messed up, it will play if its on my local machine, but not if i have a samba drive mounted
[02:35] <foxgamer> navarone, No. I cannot even access that partition at all. I can put the one that I have on this distro if that's the same
[02:35] <foot> soymilk, any luck with the gaim thing?
[02:35] <navarone> foxgamer, what distro are you using now?
[02:35] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, ah..
[02:35] <bodaciousbrian> franky123, have any clue as to how i can play it off the samba mount?
[02:35] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, I had a similiar issue actually
[02:35] <foot> woops
[02:35] <mikul> polpak, do you understand anything of that? understand what can be wrong?
[02:36] <foxgamer> navarone, I am using fedora core 4
[02:36] <thecoolestcow> hey, is it possible to specify a gateway while using DHCP?
[02:36] <navarone> foxgamer, are you getting the error 13?
[02:36] <Loevborg> thecoolestcow, certainly
[02:36] <crimsun> AtomicB_: you're using normal speakers directly, correct? No digital receiver?
[02:36] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, are you using smbfs or just nautilus
[02:36] <franky123> bodaciousbrian: no, sorry :(
[02:36] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, i had this before, it wasnt until my wife shut her comp off that i remembered,
[02:36] <AtomicB_> yep, just got my headphones plugged into the back of the board... worked fine in windows when I was using it this morning
[02:36] <foxgamer> navarone, yes! That's the one.
[02:36] <crimsun> AtomicB_: in that Terminal, type: amixer sset 'IEC958' off
[02:36] <thecoolestcow> Loevborg ifconfig? network tools? with neither could i find an answer
[02:36] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, i used the program found under system that can detect network drives
[02:37] <Loevborg> thecoolestcow, what are you trying to do?
[02:37] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, nautilus then
[02:37] <navarone> foxgamer, don't get excited I was just trying to see if you were the same person who menmtioned it...lol
[02:37] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, will it wouk if i use smbfs?
[02:37] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, I'd try using smbfs and smb4k
[02:37] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, I think it may work better
[02:37] <foxgamer> navarone, okay. lol. Do you still want me to paste my fstab file?
[02:37] <beau> anyone know if it's possible to update your font list in gimp on the fly?
[02:37] <Loevborg> thecoolestcow, normally the dhcp server will transmit a default gateway address
[02:37] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, awsome thank you, but i need to be out of here for now, ill let ya know if it works
[02:37] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, sudo apt-get install smbfs smb4k
[02:37] <thecoolestcow> Loevborg, well i just set up a sonicwall with a linksys wireless router as a hub, and i don't think that it is using the right gateway
[02:37] <navarone> foxgamer can you access ubuntu partition from fc and takea  peek at fstab?
[02:37] <AtomicB_> crimsun, still can't hear anything, let me just double check all the outputs... is there anything else it could be?
[02:37] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, wait
[02:37] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, one thing
[02:38] <thecoolestcow> Loevborg, yeah thats the thing, my DHCP server is different from my gateway
[02:38] <crimsun> AtomicB_: then, amixer sset 'External Amplifier' off
[02:38] <zezu> constant waste of time is what this is, perhaps i should revert back to an older kernel and i would have working fglrx, or do i put this cheapass TNT2 in my system and use that POS ?
[02:38] <foxgamer> navarone, fc?
[02:38] <navarone> fedora
[02:38] <Loevborg> thecoolestcow, you can manually use "route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS>"
[02:38] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, ok, i think i allready have smbfs set up to mount under fstab, but it wasnt working, and im guessing its because i didnt have it!
[02:38] <polpak> bodaciousbrian,  you need to chmod ug+s /usr/bin/smbmnt and /usr/bin/smbumount after you install smbfs
[02:38] <Loevborg> thecoolestcow, or check out the "ip" command line utility
[02:38] <retroboogie> hello
[02:39] <beau> anyone know if it's possible to update your font list in gimp on the fly?
[02:39] <Loevborg> thecoolestcow, I'm unsure if you can do it through the gui
[02:39] <thecoolestcow> loevborg, ok cool, i'll try those.
[02:39] <bodaciousbrian> ok
[02:39] <foxgamer> navarone, no. It registers that the partition is there, but I cannot access it. I have been trying different things for ages, but I'm still quite new to linux
[02:39] <thecoolestcow> i don't like the gui
[02:39] <thecoolestcow> i use debian normally, but my dad has ubuntu
[02:39] <Loevborg> it's just as well
[02:39] <bobby> what is the default root password in ubuntu 5.10...need it to log into webmin
[02:39] <AtomicB_> crimsun, still nothing.. and I'm pretty sure all my levels are correct :(
[02:39] <retroboogie> how can i change res, all i can get 1024x768
[02:39] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, yeah fstab is set up allready =)
[02:39] <franky123> bobby: there is no root pass
[02:39] <navarone> foxgamer> do you know what the partition is designated for ubuntu...ie hd0,1  etc?
[02:39] <polpak> !resolution
[02:39] <ubotu> from memory, resolution is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:39] <thecoolestcow> bobby your regular pw may do it, but there is no real root pw
[02:39] <crimsun> AtomicB_: is this a dist-upgrade from Hoary or a fresh Breezy install?
[02:40] <AtomicB_> completely fresh, from a cd I burnt this morning
[02:40] <franky123> !sudo
[02:40] <ubotu> [root]  by default root has no password.  The reason is, the maintainers want you to use sudo for all your root access. see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo  If you wish, you can set a root password
[02:40] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, yeah but you need to install the packages
[02:40] <foxgamer> navarone, yes, it's hd0,2
[02:40] <Loevborg> thecoolestcow, maybe you need to drop the other gateway first, btw
[02:40] <franky123> bobby: that help?
[02:40] <polpak> ubotu tell retroboogie about resolution
[02:40] <bobby> not at all
[02:40] <derekS> anyone else having a problem with totem-gstreamer? (ie it always crashing?
[02:40] <lowman62> what is the command to get dhcpd up and running?
[02:40] <franky123> bobby: why?
[02:40] <crimsun> AtomicB_: do you have multiple sound cards in the computer?
[02:40] <bobby> under 4.10 and 5.04 you could reset the root password to some thing you knew, now you can't do that
[02:40] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, yeah there downloading now, almsot done, then chmod, and reset and will hopefully work, allthough i did have this problem before using smbfs, so whats the smb4k?
[02:40] <bobby> this is a major flaw
[02:41] <bobby> franky123, aptitude install webmin ...you try and log in
[02:41] <AtomicB_> crimsun, nope, just this inbuilt nvidia card
[02:41] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, smb4k is similiar to the nautilus "Network Servers" screen, where you can browse the network
[02:41] <crimsun> AtomicB_: are you positive you're using the line-out jack?
[02:41] <crimsun> AtomicB_: (and not, say, Mic)
[02:41] <thecoolestcow> loevborg, oh. how do i do that
[02:41] <yaaar> bobby: what are you talking about? can't you just use 'sudo passwd' to set the root password in breezy?
[02:41] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, ok, so like a gui to smbfs?
[02:41] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, but instead of using a virtual file system it actually mounts the network drives to your home directory
[02:41] <AtomicB_> crimsun, 99% but I will now double check :)
[02:41] <sagarp> setting up general console font....failed <<----what does that mean??
[02:41] <retroboogie> im running a Samsung 19" LCD are there resolution issues involved i cant seen to go higher than 1024x768-
[02:41] <foot> how can i get ubuntu to load kde instead of gnome at boot?
[02:42] <bobby> yaaar, I was using the gnome user manager - give me a moment to check
[02:42] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, so you can use command line tools to access the files as well
[02:42] <navarone> foxgamer, try this...in fedora go to termianl and type mkdir /mnt/mydir      then type mount hd0,2 /mnt/mydir   <--- with su or whatever in order for it to work of course...then cd to /mnt/mydir and see if you can access
[02:42] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, essentially it's a gui for smbfs yes
[02:42] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, ok
[02:42] <thecoolestcow> foot once you install kde, in the "session" button, select KDE at hte logon screen
[02:42] <yaaar> bobby: it was really a rhetorical question.....I've done it before
[02:42] <bobby> no effect
[02:42] <sagarp> i also get a bunch of errors: insmod: error inserting '...some module': -1 file exists
[02:42] <bobby> yaaar, it is just changed back to the default
[02:43] <bobby> (which is why I want to know the default)
[02:43] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, I suspect thought that the problem may just be the network buffering in the smbfs filesystem isn't sufficient
[02:43] <foxgamer> navarone, Right, it says that I must specify the filesystem type.
[02:43] <foot> thecoolestcow, i assumed so.  but its not showing up
[02:43] <thecoolestcow> Loevborg how do i remove the current default gateway
[02:43] <AtomicB_> crimsun, ok, yep 100% sure, tried them all just for the sake of it.. it's 100% the right one
[02:43] <bodaciousbrian> polpak, i gotta get goin, thanks for all the help, i think it should work upon a reset...
[02:43] <thecoolestcow> foot really. you installed it through synaptic?
[02:43] <polpak> bodaciousbrian, ok, good luck
[02:43] <crimsun> AtomicB_: use the speaker-test util
[02:43] <yaaar> bobby: i dunno what the trouble is....i just checked again. on this box that never had the root passwd set, i just set it with that command and it worked fine
[02:43] <AtomicB_> crimsun, ok, where will I find that?
[02:44] <UbuntuMike> Although my computer is running just fine, and is using all the hardware properly (as far as I know) it cannot recognise what they are called etc. in device manager, is there any solution to that?
[02:44] <crimsun> AtomicB_: command line
[02:44] <foxgamer> navarone, Just tried it again with the filesystem type and I get 'special device hd0,2 does not exist'
[02:44] <AtomicB_> k
[02:44] <IdleOne> is there a command to create a launcher on the desktop via terminal ?
[02:44] <foot> thecoolestcow, actually someone in another chan im in did this :) im not on ubuntu
[02:45] <thecoolestcow> foot haha. nice.
[02:45] <thecoolestcow> foot if he's using ubuntu, ask him if he installed it with synaptic or apt-get
[02:45] <foot> i dont know how he installed it :?
[02:45] <AtomicB_> damn this eery silence :( haha
[02:45] <PeteyPablo> anyone got an ipod nano working with ubuntu?
[02:46] <foot> thecoolestcow, it was synaptic
[02:46] <thecoolestcow> foot weird. i trust he restarted? if he did, then i dono, i'm outta options (i use debian, i dont even know about ubuntu)
[02:47] <foot> :)  i think he rebooted.  funny to be relaying IRC between two servers
[02:47] <navarone> foxgamer try fdisk -l and see what comes up
[02:47] <Spect3r> hey im here foot
[02:47] <UbuntuMike> In Device Manager, there is no data for any of my hardware (Vendor, Device, Status, Bus Type), except a vendor very occasionally, is there any way to solve this problem?
[02:48] <thecoolestcow> foot yeah, especially when you and i arent even ubuntu users
[02:48] <Spect3r> hey thecoolestcow im the one with the problem
[02:48] <foot> howdy Spect3r :)
[02:48] <bobby> yaaar, no effect
[02:48] <Spect3r> lol yah
[02:49] <bobby> bah ubuntu really annoys me some times
[02:49] <foot> did you reboot Spect3r ?
[02:49] <Spect3r> ok soo weird... konqueor is now my default browser... but KDE won't show up in session
[02:49] <crimsun> AtomicB_: speaker-test has a man page, too.
[02:49] <Spect3r> yah i did
[02:49] <AtomicB_> crimsun, yeah was just browsing it :)
[02:49] <AtomicB_> I still can't seem to get anything out of it
[02:49] <AtomicB_> are there any alternate drivers for it or anything?
[02:49] <Toma-> PeteyPablo: http://www.ubuntux.org/node/93
[02:50] <foot> somebody said you can screw it up using synaptic, and you oughtta try sudo apt-get install kde from command line
[02:50] <Spect3r> ok i'll trys that
[02:50] <foxgamer> navarone, It keeps coming up command not found, but I can see it in the dir.
[02:50] <MachineScrew> any one know of nifty stuff to do with a palm
[02:50] <foot> MachineScrew, oil it
[02:50] <PeteyPablo> Toma-: that page isn't loading
[02:50] <foot> then the possibilities are endless
[02:50] <MachineScrew> ya right
[02:50] <yaaar> bobby: i really don't know what to tell you. i mean, if you are properly sudoing, it doesn't ask you for the old password or anything, you just have to give it 2 tha match.......there's not a lot that can go wrong
[02:50] <navarone> foxgamer try  mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/mydir
[02:50] <nekostar> can you tell k3b to overburn a tad
[02:51] <nekostar> say 12MB?
[02:51] <Toma-> PeteyPablo: basically says its supported, and you can use gtkpod with it
[02:51] <Spect3r> foot, thecoolestcow ... Package kde is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[02:51] <Spect3r> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[02:51] <Spect3r> is only available from another source
[02:51] <MachineScrew> its a zire 31
[02:51] <yaaar> bobby: are you getting an error
[02:51] <yaaar> ?
[02:51] <PeteyPablo> Toma-: gtkpod isn't workign for me ..
[02:51] <navarone> foxgamer and if that gives no errors try accessing
[02:51] <nekostar> PeteyPablo, gtkpod is not so bad
[02:51] <nekostar> just toss in your ipod
[02:51] <AtomicB_> MachineScrew, http://www.giantdisc.com/ ? heh
[02:51] <nekostar> and check where its actually mounted
[02:51] <foxgamer> navarone, No. That worked fine with no errors and I can access it.
[02:51] <PeteyPablo> it doesnt work for me
[02:51] <nekostar> then change it so that gtkpod reflects that path
[02:52] <MachineScrew> just having a hard time getting files on the sd card
[02:52] <navarone> foxgamer...great now find your fstab and copy and paste into pastebin
[02:52] <Toma-> PeteyPablo: is the ipod saying its connected?
[02:52] <PeteyPablo> Toma-: yea the icon is on my desktop
[02:52] <AtomicB_> crimsun, sorry to bug you, do you know of anything else I could look into for getting this stupid nvidia onboard sound to work?
[02:52] <bob832> how do i restart apache through the command line?
[02:52] <foot> Spect3r, you should check this file: /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:52] <Toma-> yeh you need to configure gtkpod to look at your mounted ipod i do believe
[02:52] <foxgamer> cd etc
[02:52] <foot> or, Spect3r, do an apt-get update
[02:52] <Spect3r> foot i've done that but i'll try again
[02:53] <foot> hmm
[02:53] <PeteyPablo> Toma-: it copies files to the ipod fine they just dont play, brb gonna restart my p
[02:53] <Toma-> i see
[02:53] <Spect3r> foot: Package kde is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[02:53] <Spect3r> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[02:53] <Spect3r> is only available from another source
[02:53] <Spect3r> E: Package kde has no installation candidate
[02:53] <bobby> yaaar, no error, it says the password is successfully changed
[02:53] <bobby> when I next look it has been changed back
[02:53] <navarone> PeteyPablo, have you tried with rhtymbox or amarok?
[02:54] <bobby> and at no point works under the pw I set
[02:54] <bobby> fresh install of 5.10
[02:54] <foot> Spect3r, when i try, i don't get that error
[02:54] <yaaar> bobby: what do you mean "when I look"
[02:54] <thecoolestcow> loevborg: thanks mate, it worked
[02:54] <Spect3r> foot, hmm
[02:54] <yaaar> bobby: what are you dooing to test the new passwd?
[02:54] <bobby> yaaar, in gnome users management
[02:54] <damian_> whats a good identd that works out of the box in ubuntu?
[02:54] <bobby> yaaar, attempting to log into webmin or su
[02:54] <yaaar> bobby: it shows you the passwords in user management?
[02:54] <tronix> damian_: xinetd is great
[02:55] <foxgamer> navarone, It's at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6566  but this is my current fstab and not the ubuntu one
[02:55] <tronix> damian_: oops, disregard
[02:55] <tronix> damian_: identd, not inetd. sorry :)
[02:55] <damian_> identd not inetd
[02:55] <bobby> yaaar, the stars of the pw yes, so by the length I can tell it isn'ta ccurate
[02:55] <tronix> damian_: hmm, I liked fakeidentd to deal with annoying irc servers but don't see that in APT
[02:55] <Spect3r> foot, i did a clean and remove KDE... but now im getting couldn't find package KDE
[02:56] <foot> are you captitalizing it?
[02:56] <Spect3r> yes
[02:56] <foot> lowercase, always lowercase
[02:56] <navarone> foxgamer are you using a live cd?
[02:56] <Spect3r> oh alright
[02:56] <Spect3r> lets try that
[02:56] <foxgamer> navarone, No.
[02:56] <yaaar> bobby: that's very strange....i don't see any way that it could know the length of the password to accurately produce the stars....linux doesn't store the actual passwords anywhere you know, but rather a hash of them...which doesn't give away the length of the password.
[02:56] <Spect3r> foot, E: kde has no installation canidate
[02:56] <Friar_tuck> kde-desktop
[02:56] <navarone> foxgamer were you able to access the partition hda1?

[02:57] <imperfectus> hi
[02:57] <Spect3r> Friar_tuck, kde-desktop you say?
[02:57] <Friar_tuck> are you loking to inall kde?
[02:57] <Spect3r> yes on unbuntu
[02:57] <Friar_tuck> are you looking to install kde?
[02:57] <Friar_tuck> yeah then
[02:57] <Friar_tuck> kds-desktop
[02:57] <foxgamer> navarone, I am currently using hda1. Ubuntu is on hda3 which is what I'm having problems with.
[02:57] <Friar_tuck> kde-desktop
[02:57] <Spect3r> ok sweet, i'll try that, thanks Friar_tuck
[02:57] <UbuntuMike> Device Manager doesn't know anything about  my drivers, what can I do about that?
[02:57] <bobby> yaaar, don't look at me, I'm not a gnome dev - the lenght could be a guess? though I know from my debian box at home that the length is accurate at least there
[02:57] <Friar_tuck> you're welcome
[02:57] <imperfectus> How do I change the color schemes on gnome?
[02:58] <imperfectus> There's so place to change them in Theme Details?
[02:58] <regeya> imperfectus, no.
[02:58] <strider> crimsun: there was a conflict with the US dictionary in Open office. That's why it didn't install for me.
[02:58] <Spect3r> Friar_tuck, problem... E: Couldn't find package kde-desktop
[02:58] <Kyral> imperfectus: System --> Preferences --> Theme
[02:58] <Friar_tuck> it'll ask you which you want to be your default desktop
[02:58] <franky123> imperfectus: start menu->system->preferences->theme
[02:58] <strider> Fixed now ;)
[02:58] <Friar_tuck> let me check that
[02:58] <Friar_tuck> !
[02:58] <ubotu> Friar_tuck: Are you smoking crack?
[02:58] <Friar_tuck> !kde
[02:58] <ubotu> kde is, like, totally, A powerful, free desktop environment for UNIX. IRC: #kubuntu #kde ; install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ; ISOs: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/breezy/
[02:58] <cafuego> strider: kubuntu-desktop
[02:58] <imperfectus> I've been there, but there is no way for me to graphically change the colors.
[02:58] <cafuego> grr
[02:58] <franky123> imperfectus: art.gnome.org has more themes. install them by draggiing the tar.gz you download into the theme manager
[02:58] <crimsun_> strider: I didn't run into that.
[02:58] <Friar_tuck> kubuntu-desktop sorry
[02:58] <Spect3r> ok
[02:58] <Spect3r> i'll try that
[02:58] <franky123> xubuntu!
[02:59] <spectrun> #unbutu.br.net
[02:59] <Friar_tuck> duh @ Me
[02:59] <imperfectus> I like the theme I currently have, but for instance the status bars are still brown.
[02:59] <strider> crimsun: lucky you ;)
[02:59] <imperfectus> And the highlight color on the menu's is still brown
[02:59] <grapefruiter> guys what are some reasons why ubuntu is bad
[02:59] <imperfectus> And there is no way for me to change it that I can see.
[02:59] <Spect3r> thanks ubotu and Friar_tuck
[02:59] <Spect3r> seems to be working
[02:59] <regeya> *sigh* you can change the theme from System->Preferences-Theme, but not the individual colors.  you'd more than likely need to write a new gtkrc and import that.
[02:59] <Friar_tuck> good
[02:59] <bobby> grapefruiter, the lack of usable root account
[02:59] <Friar_tuck> have you used kde before?
[02:59] <navarone> foxgamer are you able to mount hda3 the asme way as hda1?
[02:59] <regeya> unlike kde where there's a friendly color picker applet.
[02:59] <imperfectus> regeya: Yep..how lame.
[02:59] <grapefruiter> what else
[03:00] <Spect3r> Friar_tuck, yah... on mandrake... which i got fed up with... not cuz of kde but cuz mandrake sucked
[03:00] <spectrun> ai galera blz
[03:00] <foxgamer> navarone, Yes, I have just managed to do that. The fstab is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6567
[03:00] <bobby> grapefruiter, that's all I've got against it :| ...maybe mark shuttworths want to move to kde (yuck)
[03:00] <PuMpErNiCkLe> imperfectus: System -> preferences -> theme -> theme details -> controls ?
[03:00] <Friar_tuck> are you mainly going for that because of looks?
[03:00] <regeya> <excuse type="lame">A color picker would be counter-intuitive, would lead to unergonomic color choices by the user, and would be confusing to the average user.</excuse>
[03:00] <imperfectus> PuMpErNiCkLe, : That doesn't help me w/ colors though...
[03:01] <leefdaddy> what's up
[03:01] <Spect3r> no Friar_tuck i find it easier to use... i find GNOME stuffy and harder
[03:01] <crazy3k> Hello. I'm having some problems with my Ubuntu system. X won't load. /var/log/Xorg.0.log says there's a problem with the "fixed font". I think all this happened when I replaced "hoary" by "breezy" in my sources.list file and tried to update packages. How can I fix this?
[03:01] <PuMpErNiCkLe> imperfectus: Works for me... highlight colour,menu on-click colour, border colour...
[03:01] <imperfectus> PuMpErNiCkLe, : Hrm.... I dont see it
[03:02] <PuMpErNiCkLe> imperfectus: I'll put a screenshot on the pastebin
[03:02] <imperfectus> Well
[03:02] <imperfectus> I'm looking at it
[03:02] <imperfectus> and all I see is the list of themes
[03:02] <imperfectus> and go to theme folder
[03:02] <foxgamer> navarone, Am I right in thinking that I am having problems because I am asking a debian system to mount a fc partition?
[03:02] <Falstius> how can I configure how the trash works?
[03:02] <LordMelkor> how can i put music on my ipod via ubuntu?
[03:02] <jamieboy> is there a chan where newbies can ask questions about hardware support before i have gotten my disc in
[03:02] <franky123> falstius: configuration editor->nautilus ?
[03:02] <imperfectus> LordLucless, : check out gtkpod
[03:03] <intelikey> foxgamer nope
[03:03] <Friar_tuck> keep downloading it cos it's nice to have a choice but afterwards  you could try a program called gnome-art. Unbuntu is ugly out of the box but that program makes it look a lot nicer
[03:03] <crazy3k> Can someone give me a hand with my problem?
[03:03] <foxgamer> damn. lol
[03:03] <regeya> PuMpErNiCkLe, yeah, let's see that screenshot.
[03:03] <flodine> anyone update there kernel in breezy
[03:04] <navarone> foxgamer I dunno about that...foxgamer are you able to use grub to choose fedora or ubuntu on boot-up? Your fstab looks pretty much like mine as far as ubuntu is concerned
[03:04] <LordMelkor> thanks imperfectus
[03:04] <PuMpErNiCkLe> imperfectus: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6568
[03:04] <imperfectus> LordLucless, : I think the default player has some ipod funtionality
[03:04] <foxgamer> navarone, Yes, I get a choice between this one and ubuntu. If I select ubuntu, I get the error 13 message.
[03:04] <navarone> flodine...i went from 386 to 686 to k7 with no probs
[03:05] <navarone> foxgamer weird
[03:05] <imperfectus> PuMpErNiCkLe, : That's what I'm looking at but it doesn't let me change anything.
[03:05] <PuMpErNiCkLe> imperfectus: O_o
[03:05] <flodine> navarone to 2.6.14
[03:06] <intelikey> foxgamer error 13  where ?
[03:06] <foxgamer> intelikey, I get it when I select ubuntu in grub and press enter.
[03:06] <crazy3k> Hello. I'm having some problems with my Ubuntu system. X won't load. /var/log/Xorg.0.log says there's a problem with the "fixed font". I think all this happened when I replaced "hoary" by "breezy" in my sources.list file and tried to update packages. How can I fix this?
[03:06] <b1shop> i just did an install off the DVD and i swear it did not ass for root password
[03:06] <b1shop> i'm logged in as user, but i cannot su to root
[03:06] <nalioth> crazy3k: install more fonts packages
[03:07] <nalioth> ubotu: tell b1shop about root
[03:07] <crazy3k> nalioth: How?
[03:07] <intelikey> then it is not an fstab issue it is menu.lst issue foxgamer
[03:07] <nalioth> b1shop: there is no active root account, read the info the bot sent you
[03:07] <nalioth> crazy3k: use apt-get
[03:07] <jamieboy> how does ubuntu work with usb hardware as i have not seen any linux drivers in any of my hardware cd's ?
[03:07] <navarone> intellikey...fedora dn ubuntu...gets error 13 from grub when he selects ubunt
[03:07] <navarone> hmm
[03:07] <MarcN> crazy3k: did you apt-get update followed by apt-get dist-upgrade?
[03:07] <jrattner1> jamieboy, what hardware
[03:07] <foxgamer> intelikey, Oh right. So shall I look for that then?
[03:07] <jamieboy> printers, digital camera and video camera scanners etc.
[03:08] <crazy3k> nalioth: Actually, when I tried the solution the log said, which was to "apt-get install x-common-core" apt-get said it wouldn't find a package or something.
[03:08] <crazy3k> MarcN: When?
[03:08] <intelikey> foxgamer is your grub installed from ubuntu or fedora ?
[03:08] <IdleOne> is there a command to create a launcher on the desktop via terminal ?
[03:08] <MarcN> crazy3k: after you switched repositories from hoary to breezy
[03:08] <BxL> anyone know any artwork for lilo with ubuntu logo or anything
[03:08] <foxgamer> intelikey, Originally it was ubuntu, but when I installed fedora, it wrote over it. Fedora did pick up that ubuntu was there though.
[03:09] <crazy3k> MarcN: I don't think I did. Could that be the problem?
[03:09] <navarone> foxgamer...you know the routine...<s> c/p /boot/grub to pastebin plz
[03:09] <MarcN> crazy3k: you wanted to upgrade, right?
[03:09] <crazy3k> MarcN: Correct.
[03:09] <navarone> /boot/grub/menu.1st that is...<ahem>
[03:10] <MarcN> crazy3k: that is how you upgrade.  also read on the wiki about upgrading.   I recall there are some post-upgrade steps
[03:10] <nalioth> crazy3k: http://packages.ubuntu.com may help you
[03:10] <foxgamer> navarone, done. :) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6569
[03:10] <nalioth> cary: yes run dist-upgrade
[03:10] <nalioth> crazy3k: run dist-upgrade
[03:10] <crazy3k> Ok.
[03:10] <crazy3k> I'd have to close irssi in order to do that.
[03:11] <nalioth> crazy3k: no you dont
[03:11] <Kyral> crazy3k: no you don't
[03:11] <nalioth> crazy3k: just hit ctrl-alt-f4
[03:11] <nalioth> crazy3k: you have 8 of those
[03:11] <Kyral> or as many as you want...
[03:11] <intelikey> foxgamer then lets fix the /boot/grub/menu.lst  or /boot/grub/device.map  in fedora,  which ever is bad.   unless you want to reinstall the grub from ubuntu and add the fedora install to it.
[03:11] <Kyral> screen...
[03:12] <foxgamer> intelikey, I am happy to reinstall the grub from ubuntu and add fedora to it after if that's easier. I didn't think that would be possible.
[03:12] <tman_ubuntu> How do I disable the totem plugin?
[03:12] <aedes> anyone had problems with samba not sharing a local printer, when configured to use cups, and cups sees the local printer?
[03:12] <aurax> http://www.audioforce.net:6900/listen.pls
[03:12] <maximumbob> A skeptic has asked me, "If they give away these CDs for free, how do they make their money?" -- any good answers?
[03:12] <navarone> foxgamer that's a big menu.1st list
[03:12] <Kyral> maximumbob: I dunno
[03:13] <BxL> maximumbob, maybe it's not made for money.
[03:13] <foxgamer> navarone, I have no idea. I didn't even know it existed before now.
[03:13] <MarcN> maximumbob: contracting, support, etc
[03:13] <navarone> foxgamer...you can uninstall unused kernels after upgrading...<s>
[03:13] <aedes> maximumbob, they don't make money, they have a rich benefactor
[03:13] <steven_> can somone help me, whenever i try to start my ubuntu pc everything goes fine, but then at the end it switches to a text mode and i'm left with no command prompt, error or anythimg?
[03:14] <foxgamer> navarone, I have to uninstall the old kernels after I upgrade? I thought that was automatic?
[03:14] <navarone> foxgamer I have to go to bed...i am back in the workforce...I think intellikey will be good help
[03:14] <bipolar> maximumbob: huh? ubuntu?
[03:14] <evilghost> steven_:  Is it a login prompt?
[03:14] <steven_> evilghost, no prompt at all...
[03:14] <foxgamer> navarone, Thank you for your help. I am grateful.
[03:14] <steven_> evilghost, it's like the brown splash screen but just text
[03:14] <Friar_tuck> Can anyone use the name tux in their software or are there legal issues?
[03:14] <evilghost> steven_:  Basically, screen is black, with no output?
[03:15] <navarone> foxgamer...old kernels stick around in case new one muffs up...but if you are satisfied with new one you can uninstall them in synaptic and it will update grub as well
[03:15] <steven_> evilghost, it shows the thigns from the brown splash screen
[03:15] <imperfectus> This just doesnt' seem right to me..
[03:15] <imperfectus> I've got 20meg of ram free
[03:15] <imperfectus> out of a gig
[03:15] <IdleOne> Friar_tuck:  only legal issue is you will be sued
[03:15] <imperfectus> and i'm using xchat and gaim.
[03:15] <steven_> evilghost, no error or anything
[03:15] <intelikey> foxgamer sure it's possable to install grub from either system.   which system can you boot?   fc?
[03:15] <imperfectus> listening to an mp3 that's it.
[03:15] <foxgamer> navarone, Thank you. When it's all working I shall look at that.
[03:15] <b1shop> looking for a repository that has monoodevelop
[03:15] <navarone> foxgamer good luck
[03:15] <evilghost> steven_:  Can you hit ESC, or CTRL-ALT-F1 (and get a prompt)?
[03:15] <foxgamer> intelikey, I can boot in fc only at the moment.
[03:15] <navarone> good night folks
[03:15] <Friar_tuck> lol, so putting that in a software name is not a good idea?
[03:15] <foxgamer> navarone, Thank you. Night!
[03:16] <steven_> evilghost, hold on
[03:16] <jaro> Hi. I've just received DELL Lattitude LS - quite an old notebook piece. Without integrated CDROM, with only very old PCMCIA external one from which I haven't manage to boot (& tried really hard) so...
[03:16] <IdleOne> Friar_tuck:  i would come up with something a little more original
[03:16] <evilghost> steven_:  How long do you wait?  Does it eventually timeout and load normally (wonder if it's ntpdate sync).
[03:16] <jamieboy> can i use usb printers etc. without having linux drivers ?
[03:16] <jaro> ... can I netinstall ubuntu booting off diskettes?
[03:17] <steven_> evilghost, if i hit ctrl+alt+f1 it goes to the uncompressing kernel, booting linux screen and does nothing
[03:17] <evilghost> steven_:  Laptop or Desktop, and I'm guessing you did Breezy 5.10?
[03:17] <IdleOne> is there a command to create a launcher on the desktop via terminal ?
[03:17] <steven_> evilghost, desktop, breezy
[03:17] <bimberi> jaro: There's a few different install methods listed at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation
[03:17] <steven_> evilghost, this just happend to me.. it's happend before but usually i reboot and it's fine
[03:18] <evilghost> steven_:  What kind of processor/RAM/arch?
[03:18] <steven_> evilghost, pent 4 1gig ram
[03:18] <steven_> evilghost, why does it just sit their? i need to get this fixed badly
[03:18] <evilghost> steven_:  Can you try rescue mode and see if that boots, I wonder if it's a service that's hung or if it's another issue, like bad drive.  You didn't mess with hdparm did you?
[03:18] <Lord_Athur> how can I mount a squashfs file?
[03:19] <steven_> evilghost, it finally seems to have worked, and i tried rescue mode it worked fine
[03:19] <steven_> evilghost, thanks..
[03:19] <evilghost> steven_:  No problem, this means there's a hung service.  You didn't install emifreqd did you?
[03:20] <evilghost> steven_:  Any recent changes/etc?
[03:20] <steven_> evilghost, been trying to get my ipod nano to work with no luck
[03:20] <intelikey> foxgamer the menu.lst you pasted is from the ubuntu installation,  no?
[03:20] <steven_> evilghost, emifrq? no i think not.
[03:20] <Lord_Athur> heyhow can I mount a squashfs file?
[03:21] <foxgamer> intelikey, Yes it is.
[03:21] <duplexer> yo DRAGON_Ultra
[03:21] <imperfectus> Anyone know why free is reported more memory than gnome-system-monitor... or even gkrellm
[03:21] <adam_> join #ubuntu
[03:21] <jaro> bimberi: thanks, I'll try netboot.
[03:21] <intelikey> foxgamer lets see the one from fc please
[03:21] <evilghost> steven_:  Sounds like you made some changes and it went South, perhaps try undoing what you did, or, revert from a known good backup.
[03:21] <Lord_Athur> adam_, we are in this channel
[03:22] <Kr0ntab> heya folks
[03:22] <evilghost> Lord_Athur:  mount /mnt/cdrom/lfs.img -t squashfs -o loop /mnt/livecd
[03:24] <Zugwrack> Wow this VMWare player(free) and the Ubuntu image I downloaded are pretty kewl to run :-O
[03:24] <evilghost> Kr0ntab:  Sup
[03:24] <Kr0ntab> heya.... evilghost
[03:24] <Kr0ntab> how ya doin
[03:24] <evilghost> Zugwrack:  You avoiding the WMF insanity?
[03:25] <evilghost> Kr0ntab:  Doing well, you?
[03:25] <Zugwrack> Yep
[03:25] <Dariuss> is it possible anyone in here can help me with an install?
[03:25] <evilghost> Zugwrack:  Don't worry, just wait until Jan 10 :P  You seen the unofficial patch, it actually works well.
[03:26] <evilghost> Dariuss:  Sure.
[03:26] <Kr0ntab> eh... its not that big of a deal....  lots of media hype.... not wormable.
[03:26] <B-166_ER-X> my problem, might or might not be related to my k3b bug : aMSN (no, not the freezing bug) ... when i try to run it in terminal it makes : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6553 , but if i run it in Sudo, ir runs ok... but says 2 line about destroying .mi and .si , as you can see in the screenshot
[03:26] <Kr0ntab> brb
[03:26] <evilghost> Kr0ntab:  Wormable could be defined as mass-mailer, which is possible.
[03:26] <Zugwrack> See ya later....building a FreeBSD box...
[03:26] <foxgamer> intelikey, Sorry, I got a bit lost on the system. I have it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6570
[03:27] <intelikey> looking
[03:27] <Toma-> B-166_ER-X: what version of amsn is that?
[03:27] <B-166_ER-X> 0.94 ..
[03:28] <Toma-> u know theres a 0.95 out now with webcam support and a bunch of other goodies?
[03:28] <Toma-> also, ask in #amsn
[03:28] <yaaar> hey guys, how can i get beep-media-player to recognize .aac files? i already installed faad, gstreamer0.8-faad, and bmp-mp4
[03:28] <CaptainMorgan> anyone download the new amarok updates? any changes?
[03:28] <Lord_Athur> evilghost, "mount: unknown filesystem type 'squashfs'
[03:28] <Lord_Athur> "
[03:28] <yaaar> it still complains when i add .aac's to the playlist
[03:28] <B-166_ER-X> yeap, but no package for ubuntu, and when i tried to compile...i think that where things screwed up
[03:28] <Dariuss> evilghost - im really new to linux, but i got it to install on my amd64 system, now im trying to install it on my hp laptop. everytime i try though, it fails. initrd tools wont install....
[03:28] <Toma-> B-166_ER-X: i made an ubuntu package. its still getting tested, but it perfect here. you want the link?
[03:29] <B-166_ER-X> Toma-,  would be nice ..
[03:29] <evilghost> Lord_Athur:  From what I understand you need the squashfs module, or, something about compiling the kernel to support that FS.
[03:29] <B-166_ER-X> if it can repare my problem
