[10:49] <robinlinth> Eleaf, Well, that goes in the direction of a hidden server running.
[10:49] <Eleaf> ok
[10:49] <KvaZi> cole: wouldn't a rootkit be even MORE dangerous than a virus that sends love letters to everybody?
[10:49] <cole> kvazi: rootkits are...kits... that are used to maintain root acces on a nix box
[10:49] <KvaZi> because all of the "I can get to every single file you own on here" of a rootkit?
[10:49] <Eleaf> robinlinth, rkhunter is in the repos too
[10:49] <Desmaano> Ali_ix; the problem is gnome wont startup :(
[10:49] <ardchoille> Eleaf: rkhunter will tell you lots of stuff besides rootkit, like added/removed users, checking kernel modules, etc.
[10:50] <Desmaano> when i type gdm, my screen turns black
[10:50] <Eleaf> cool...  I'll plug the lan back in
[10:50] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: what happend before problem? vga driver installation?
[10:50] <mycroftiv> kvazi: if someone gets root level access to your machine, either locally or with remote access, they can obviously reprogram your machine. its not a security flaw, just the term used for root-level malware written for linux.
[10:50] <Desmaano> no yesterday i installed a software raid
[10:50] <cole> kvazi: fyi thats a worm, not a virus, and depending on the machine- a rootkit can be considered harmless because of an unimportant machine or an important box
[10:50] <Desmaano> and rebooted several times after it
[10:50] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> could you help me with "free" explanation about the sentence above?
[10:51] <KvaZi> ssso..
[10:51] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: can you boot up in recovery mode?
[10:51] <KvaZi> a virus can and will screw up my windows
[10:51] <Desmaano> yes, up to the shell
[10:51] <zombieee> jvla nrdar
[10:51] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> # A vast library of free software - Need more software? Simply choose from thousands of software packages in the Ubuntu catalogue, all available to download and install at the click of a button. And it's all completely free!
[10:51] <Desmaano> console*
[10:51] <KvaZi> but a malicious rootkit [hope i explained it well]  can make other people literally take a piss on your computer and you wouldn't know it?
[10:51] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> (The last "free")
[10:51] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: /etc/init.d/gdm start, what happens  then?
[10:51] <cole> kvazi: if you give them access
[10:52] <Eleaf> it takes a lot longer for ssh to start at the server
[10:52] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> (well...it's below, not above)
[10:52] <Desmaano> Ali_ix: black screen
[10:52] <cole> kvazi: if you give them a user, or a potential of gaining any level of access on your box then they can... if they know how
[10:52] <Ali_ix> M-Wei|OSX-Mac: just fre! as a bird :D
[10:52] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> Ali_ix: is it meant gratis?
[10:52] <ardchoille> Eleaf: Do you have the root account enabled on that server?
[10:53] <Eleaf> ardchoille, what is the login command again?
[10:53] <robinlinth> M-Wei|OSX-Mac, yes, gratis.
[10:53] <robinlinth> M-Wei|OSX-Mac, are you Dutch?
[10:53] <Ali_ix> M-Wei|OSX-Mac: yes
[10:53] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> robinlinth: Chinese.
[10:53] <robinlinth> ah
[10:53] <ardchoille> Eleaf: log in command?
[10:53] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> (well...taiwanese)
[10:53] <Eleaf> like login
[10:53] <robinlinth> ah
[10:53] <Eleaf> but it says I have to be at the lowest level.
[10:53] <Ali_ix> M-Wei|OSX-Mac: generally yes ;)
[10:53] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: no error or graphics?
[10:53] <Desmaano> no error, no graphics
[10:53] <Eleaf> ardchoille, like the command 'login' which isn't working..
[10:53] <Bhaskar> i have problem on resolution, i have default 640x480 but i want 800x600, i could not change ? anybody help me
[10:53] <Eleaf> No utmp entry.  You must exec "login" from the lowest level "sh"
[10:54] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: try to start X directly with 'startx'
[10:54] <Desmaano> black, negra
[10:54] <EdgEy> Eleaf su?
[10:54] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> couldn't it be freedom?
[10:54] <cole> kvazi: linux is designed to keep people out, if configured correctly- its almost invulnerable- but if you leave something open and vulnerable- and someone gets in- (they put a rootkit on it) its hard as heck to get them out
[10:54] <Ali_ix> !free
[10:54] <ubotu> freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing
[10:54] <kritzstapf> aah, if anyone has problems connecting his camera: /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules is messed up!
[10:54] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> (Somebody thought that "free" translation is not clear in Chinese)
[10:54] <mycroftiv> kvazi: your machine cant be rooted unless someone either has access to it physically or you install a service that provides remote logins. In theory a bad security bug in a package could also create an exploit vulnerability, but a major distro like Ubuntu does a good job providing secure applications and current security patches.
[10:54] <Eleaf> EdgEy, I suppose so..
[10:54] <cole> kvazi: unless you find the rootkit and get them out- which is easy considering your knowledge of linux
[10:54] <Ali_ix> !free | M-Wei|OSX-Mac
[10:54] <ubotu> M-Wei|OSX-Mac: please see above
[10:55] <Bhaskar> ziadoz,  i have problem on resolution, i have default 640x480 but i want 800x600, i could not change ? anybody help me
[10:55] <cole> bhaskar: ati or nvidia?

[10:55] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: type some characters of a name an press TAB
[10:55] <Desmaano> nice :)
[10:55] <cole> eleaf: no
[10:56] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: most of irc clients support compeletion
[10:56] <TooR4u> How to create PDF in Linux....?
[10:56] <Desmaano> some people has such long and difficult names :P
[10:56] <Eleaf> I don't see a KvaZi
[10:56] <KvaZi> say whaaa?
[10:56] <TooR4u> is there any software available .... for creating PDF..?
[10:56] <Eleaf> nevermind KvaZi
[10:56] <cole> Eleaf:  there he is
[10:56] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: lol yes, generally you need to enter 3 - 4 letters
[10:56] <KvaZi> I was about to grab a sledgehammer and bust the living crap out of this piece of crap laptop
[10:56] <KvaZi> sometimes i get so mad i want to switch to ubuntu on my desktop >_>
[10:57] <mycroftiv> toor4u: openoffice.org can export as pdf
[10:57] <cole> Bhaskar: do you have an ati based video card, or ati
[10:57] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: tried 'startx' ?
[10:57] <Desmaano> Ali_ix:  working on it
[10:57] <Bhaskar> cole, no
[10:57] <Desmaano> Ali_ix: black screen
[10:57] <cole> Bhaskar: O_o what do you have then?
[10:57] <archaios> If I install kubuntu-desktop is there a way to keep my gnome and kde menu's separate?
[10:58] <Eleaf> ardchoille, grr, this is taking so long to install rkhunter/chkrootkit..  it's stuck on preconfiguring packages...
[10:58] <TooR4u> mycroftiv, ohh ... thank u.
[10:58] <Eleaf> It's been there for like 2 minutes..
[10:58] <ompaul> archaios, partition the drive is about the only way I know of
[10:58] <stevr1it>  hello, i have  little problem with an harddisk hdd1 whcih is monted on two directory /media/hdd1 where is all the files and mnt/hdd1 wjre there is something but very little.  I can see the contents only going with root on the media forlder, how can i do to have it on the Desktop and celarly in the right folder? It is an ext 3
[10:58] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: you should get some errors in semi-graphical mode that x cant start! not really ful black screen!
[10:58] <Bhaskar> cole, i have change xorg.conf file but i could not get change in screen resolution
[10:59] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: check the logs (lok in /var/log/..../)\
[10:59] <Desmaano> Ali_ix: i know there should be errors, but its really a black screen
[10:59] <cole> Bhaskar: i had the same problem: i think i had to kill gdm and gnome completely, edit the conf as root and save then restart gdm
[11:00] <cole> Bhaskar: i just added the resolution to that configuration file
[11:00] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: try CTRL+ALT+F7. any thing there?
[11:00] <rdz> can i use the ubuntu livecd as a boot loader, so that i can start boot the already installed ubuntu system?
[11:00] <cole> Bhaskar: ive got a book that says how to do it near me
[11:00] <stevr1it>  hello, i have  little problem with an harddisk hdd1 which is mounted in two directory /media/hdd1 where is all the files and mnt/hdd1 where there is something but very little.  I can see the contents only going with root on the media forlder, how can i do to have it on the Desktop and clearly in the right directory ? It is an ext 3 and i am using ubuntu gnome 6.10
[11:01] <Desmaano> Ali_ix: no respond to CTRL+ALT+F7
[11:01] <Eleaf> why is it taking an unnaturally long time to ssh into my server?
[11:01] <cole> tty7?
[11:01] <Eleaf> it's normally instant, now it's like 10-15 seconds.
[11:02] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: you are in tty1? recovery mode?
[11:02] <cole> eleaf: those are the hardest problems to solve
[11:02] <robinlinth> Eleaf, Signs of a heavy server running on your computer
[11:02] <cole> haha
[11:02] <cole> Possibly solved.
[11:02] <robinlinth> (I don't know shit about rootkits)
[11:02] <Eleaf> robinlinth, processor usage is idle.
[11:02] <robinlinth> But i have a question too: I am downloading something with bittorrent right now. It's gonna take 3 hours. Is it safe to continue everything I do on the computer, i mean will it crash
[11:02] <Desmaano> Ali_ix: at the startup i press ESC and selected the second 'kernel' in row with '(Recovery Mode)' you meant that ?
[11:02] <robinlinth> Eleaf, hmm... thats weird then
[11:02] <Eleaf> and little network usage
[11:03] <cole> robinlinth: if you're using windows it probably will ;)
[11:03] <robinlinth> cole, Ubuntu. GNOME, no heavy apps. Epiphany instead of Firefox. Only one panel running with a deskbar and sys notification area.
[11:03] <EdgEy> of course its fine :P
[11:03] <robinlinth> Well, some apps tend to crash..
[11:04] <robinlinth> or crash the X server
[11:04] <robinlinth> that means no games for awhile
[11:04] <robinlinth> only tetris.
[11:04] <cole> robinlinth: yeah, i'm joking, you shouldn't have any problems with that
[11:04] <robinlinth> cole, alright
[11:04] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: yes, what happens if you select first kernel(nrmal mode), black screen?
[11:04] <Eleaf> robinlinth, yep, I'm definetely getting hundreds of ftp and ssh login attempts.
[11:04] <cole> robinlinth: you're saying applications usually do crash?
[11:04] <Desmaano> Ali_ix: you are dutch ?
[11:05] <cole> Eleaf: ohhh thats it.... BRUTE FORCE!
[11:05] <stevr1it> any help?
[11:06] <cole> Eleaf: blacklist the IPs? O_o
[11:06] <Eleaf> cole, trying to see if they got in though.
[11:06] <Eleaf> cole, it's a lot of ips
[11:06] <cole> Eleaf: o :o yeah, im still sorta scrub at *nix
[11:06] <Eleaf> should I have done logfile with rkhunter?
[11:06] <Desmaano> Ali_ix: loading screen of ubuntu first, then when gnome should load it goes black
[11:07] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, check your xorg logfile
[11:07] <robinlinth> cole, Well, some games change the resolution or make the mouse unable to move. Some, crash the X server after which you must press CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, which stops the downloading. If that not even helps,  you have to reboot forcefully by pressing the button on your PC, terminating the download also. That means, no games for a while.
[11:07] <robinlinth> But warsow is a safe game
[11:07] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: what command to use ??
[11:08] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: no persian ;) / well you may got in trouble with vga drivers!
[11:08] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, hm, cat /var/log/X11/Xorg.0.log or sth like that
[11:08] <Ali_ix> Desmaano: what is in logs? found them?
[11:08] <cole> robinlinth: ohhh, when the res changes, the mouse stops and you have to restart your gnome session, i see
[11:08] <cole> i want a mac
[11:08] <robinlinth> cole, yup.
[11:08] <KvaZi> we all do.
[11:08] <KvaZi> we all do, cole.
[11:08] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: Ali_ix: one moment, restart 10001
[11:08] <cole> hahah
[11:09] <Eleaf> rkhunter has found nothing yet
[11:09] <robinlinth> cole, not me. I liked it at first, but then i saw a video of how it really is.. the video player wants you to buy the pro version every time..
[11:09] <EdgEy> i dont
[11:09] <cole> robinlinth: video player
[11:09] <EdgEy> mac: pay more get less :P
[11:09] <robinlinth> cole, Quicktime
[11:09] <cole> robinlinth: as in quicktime
[11:09] <robinlinth> yes
[11:09] <cole> robinlinth: ive always hated quicktime
[11:09] <robinlinth> cole, me2
[11:09] <KvaZi> just get Mplayer and shazzam
[11:09] <KvaZi> you're done.
[11:09] <robinlinth> KvaZi, on a Mac?
[11:09] <r00tintheb0x> or VLC
[11:10] <KvaZi> [yes i have windows media center, yes it sucks]
[11:10] <robinlinth> Well I use Linux because its free and I have a PC that is second-hand and didn't have an OS (windows) with it, so I had to install Linux and else I have to use an illegal version of Windows..
[11:10] <cole> robinlinth: i use a mac at work but i have never started quicktime
[11:10] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: Xorg.0.log gives me a lot of lines
[11:10] <robinlinth> cole, how's a mac?
[11:11] <KvaZi> =D I live in mexico so I get to do all kinds of illegal stuff. It owns.
[11:11] <cole> robinlinth: don't have one, wish i did
[11:11] <robinlinth> cole, what's so great about em?
[11:11] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, how are you ircing at the moment?
[11:11] <robinlinth> cole, what's better than Linux about em?
[11:11] <Eleaf> robinlinth, it says warning for hidden files..
[11:11] <Desmaano> other (sorry) windows system
[11:11] <shah02> can someone please help me i am trying to compare my home directory with a backup b/c of inconsistencies, i need a program (command line or gui)
[11:11] <robinlinth> Eleaf, uh-oh
[11:11] <gharz> anybody here's who's using Feisty?
[11:11] <cole> robinlinth: they are unix, Aqua (x) is sweet looking
[11:11] <Eleaf> inspect /dev/.static         /dev/.udev        /dev/.initramfs
[11:11] <Eleaf> what am I supposed to look for?
[11:11] <shah02> gharz, yeah?
[11:11] <robinlinth> cole, Aqua can be mimiced in Ubuntu
[11:12] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, you could install an ext driver and use windows to upload the logfile, would make things easier
[11:12] <ardchoille> Eleaf: Those are normal for Ubuntu systems.
[11:12] <KvaZi> hell... we make fun of people that pay for windows
[11:12] <Eleaf> ok, so I just continue ardchoille ?
[11:12] <cole> robinlinth:  sure can, but is there something that works as good as dashboard, or the likes?
[11:12] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, http://www.fs-driver.org/download/Ext2IFS_1_10c.exe
[11:12] <ardchoille> Eleaf: Yes
[11:12] <gharz> shah02, how do i change my login window? i can't find it anymore in sessions... i've just upgraded... and my login window is using Xubuntu.
[11:12] <gharz> shah02, and i can't write in my windows ntfs partition.
[11:12] <ardchoille> Eleaf: And when that's done, run chkrootkit, because they check for different rootkits.
[11:12] <cole> robinlinth: their apps rock, imovie, final cut pro- they are all rock solid and can only be used and found on a mac
[11:13] <gharz> shah02, any idea?
[11:13] <robinlinth> KvaZi, yeah, why pay for something that is in fact a product of stolen apps that almost doesn't work? Well, because my friends use it and they use programs on WIndows and games that run on Windows..
[11:13] <robinlinth> cole, on Linux too right?
[11:13] <shah02> gharz, sorry you have to ask someone who is using xubuntu, i use plain old ubuntu
[11:13] <gharz> shah02, i've checked my /etc/fstab and nothing has been changed.
[11:13] <cole> robinlinth: right now? winblows... and my PC- winblows.
[11:13] <gharz> shah02, i have already removed my xfce... but aptitude has not removed xubuntu completely
[11:13] <KvaZi> windows is nice 'cuz it's free
[11:14] <cole> kvazi: its not nice- its bad
[11:14] <robinlinth> cole, well why do you run winblows?
[11:14] <shah02> gharz, i stopped using windows just b/c of the problems it was creating... esp with ubuntu...
[11:14] <Eleaf> lol, I had root login enabled for ssh ardchoille ;D
[11:14] <gharz> shah02, ic
[11:14] <shah02> gharz, just reinstall feisty, backup ur homedir
[11:14] <Eleaf> even though root isn't enabled by default
[11:14] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: what does the program do? create an ext2 filesystem on my hd ?
[11:15] <cole> robinlinth: because my ethernet driver doesnt work on ubuntu so i came here an hour ago in search of help so i can get rid of windows
[11:15] <KvaZi> cole: why? it's free
[11:15] <ardchoille> Eleaf: You had the root account enabled?
[11:15] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, allows you to access ext partitions on windows
[11:15] <gharz> shah02, i just upgraded it... it wasn't a clean install.
[11:15] <ShappaShaz> heya peeps
[11:15] <cole> KvaZi: that does NOT mean its good :(
[11:15] <cole> KvaZi: :)*
[11:15] <Eleaf> rkhunter says a-okay
[11:15] <Eleaf> ardchoille, no
[11:15] <KvaZi> cole: but i can play games in it :(
[11:15] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: how do i acces the partitions on my ubuntu machine that wont startup then ??
[11:15] <robinlinth> cole, alright.. That sucks.
[11:15] <Eleaf> ardchoille, you can log on with the normal user and run sudo or sudo su of course.
[11:15] <robinlinth> cole, can't help you with that one though
[11:16] <ardchoille> Eleaf: Yeah
[11:16] <delmorep> hi everyone -- so if I wanted to get started learning how to compile my own programs (not MY own, but custom compiles) where would I go? also where to go if I want to learn how to make my own .deb's (im not sure if that falls into the same category or not)
[11:16] <Ash-Fox> !pidgin
[11:16] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept - chances are it will still be called Gaim in Feisty; look for the change in Feisty+1
[11:16] <cole> robinlinth: yeah haha, ethernet adapter and my wifi doesnt work
[11:16] <cole> robinlinth: fiesty will fix it though
[11:16] <shah02> gharz, i try not to do that, it never is a clean install esp. b4 rc1 if even then...
[11:16] <robinlinth> cole, cool.
[11:17] <robinlinth> cole, so that's why you all are waiting for Feisty?
[11:17] <cole> robinlinth: i would be installing that atm but... on their known bugs list: (it lists TWO of them btw) Systems with JMicron IDE(PATA) chipsets may experience a crash on boot. and thats what i have
[11:17] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, you are using a different machine?
[11:17] <shah02> gharz, every new version i format, it helps if u have 2 diff partitions, one for home and one for ubuntu...
[11:17] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: yes :P
[11:17] <Eleaf> ardchoille, okay, neither checker found a rootkit
[11:17] <cole> robinlinth: i mean, id be installing the beta but ^^^^^^
[11:17] <robinlinth> cole, ouch..
[11:17] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, didnt know that..
[11:17] <ardchoille> Eleaf: That's a good sign
[11:17] <cole> robinlinth: hahahhaa same thing i said...
[11:17] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: the ubuntu system wont startup, cant do anything with it :(
[11:18] <rambo3> Desmaano, ?
[11:18] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: cant see errors in the log though, only loading modules and stuff
[11:18] <robinlinth> Desmaano, you mean it doesn't even come to the screen telling you how much RAM you have or the screen in which you can change the bios settings?
[11:18] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, you could start an ssh server and use putty on your windows machine to get the logfiles :)
[11:18] <cole> robinlinth: and im on a windows laptop atm but it would be running mac os x, but its my dads and he doesnt want that OS on this thing....
[11:18] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, even at the end of the file there are no errors?
[11:18] <fbn> how can I print from a MacBook with OSX to an Cups printer on Ubuntu?
[11:19] <Desmaano> robinlinth: it startsup till the point gnome should load
[11:19] <robinlinth> cole, i can understand that.
[11:19] <robinlinth> Desmaano, then something is wrong with X. Ask others what's wrong with your X server and they will help you
[11:19] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, anyway, ill go for breakfast :/ maybe ill ping you later
[11:19] <Eleaf> ardchoille, I want to enable that ssh server option that only lets you fail logins a few times..
[11:19] <cole> i miss talking in irc all day... i enjoy this right now :))))
[11:19] <Desmaano> kritzstapf:  no, last line is 'Loading /usr/lib/zorg/modules/drivers/savage_drv.so
[11:19] <robinlinth> cole, meh i dont, i was just asking a few questions..
[11:19] <Desmaano> kritzstapf: ok thanks, have a nice breakfast
[11:20] <Sniper404> hey
[11:20] <rambo3> Decadent, so its n' X problem?
[11:20] <Desmaano> Others: whats wrong with my X server ?? :(
[11:20] <ardchoille> Eleaf: I know it can be done, but I do't use ssh so I don't know how to do it.
[11:20] <rambo3> Desmaano, what does X log say?
[11:20] <Eleaf> hmm
[11:20] <cole> robinlinth: its 5:20am but im not tired so this is more fun than trying to sleep

[11:25] <kritzstapf> Ali_ix, the windows of Desmaano is on another machine
[11:25] <Ali_ix> kritzstapf: oh, so he can boot up with a live cd!
[11:26] <kritzstapf> Ali_ix, or start an ssh server :)

[11:26] <Ali_ix> kritzstapf: yes :D
[11:26] <joha> Hi all!
[11:26] <janism> hi
[11:27] <Desmaano> cant console sent my log files by network to my windows machine ?
[11:27] <joha> It's OT but does somebody know this: how to change location of "Home Folder" under Windows XP?
[11:27] <kritzstapf> Desmaano, of course you can, but i wont give you a step by step howto on copying files through samba on the console...
[11:28] <kritzstapf> ive never done it anyway..
[11:28] <ompaul> joha, perhaps asking in ##windows might be useful
[11:28] <joha> Oh didn't know there was such a chan
[11:28] <joha> Thanks
[11:28] <kritzstapf> joha, somehow you could just rightclick the link on the desktop and then...
[11:28] <kuba> hi everyone
[11:28] <kuba> and merry christmas
[11:28] <Desmaano> well guys, had enough of computing for now, i smell food ;)
[11:29] <rambo3> kuba, happy ramadan to you too
[11:29] <Deybiyan> joha /join ##windows
[11:29] <joha> Deybiyan, thx ompaul already suggested it :-)
[11:29] <Deybiyan> :)
[11:29] <joha> kritzstapf, I don't think that'll cut it ;)
[11:30] <gharz> guys, is it possible in ubuntu to have a moving wallpaper (like a screensaver)?
[11:30] <Bhaskar> i have resolution problem to set 800x600 how ? i hace just one option 640x480
[11:30] <Ali_ix> kritzstapf: the easiest way is to setup (install) a light weight webserver and download logs, instead of messing with samba shares
[11:30] <rambo3> gharz, E17 has that . use it instead of metacity
[11:30] <kritzstapf> joha, you can change the path there, but if you dont think so...
[11:31] <gabz> Bhaskar, you need to reconfigure your xorg file
[11:31] <kuba> i've got a question:i s another command than lspci to check my hardware of software??
[11:31] <ompaul> !fixvideoresolution | Bhaskar (please check the message form the bot

[11:31] <mycroftiv> kuba: sudo lshw gives a lot of information
[11:32] <dxdt> kuba, literally it is ls (list) pci (pci parts)  kinda like how lsmod will list modules
[11:32] <dxdt> or lsusb will list usb devices

[11:32] <Dell-Net> need help my gnome sessions restart when I trying to login
[11:33] <Ali_ix> Dell-Net: in feisty teher is an options to save sessions
[11:33] <Dell-Net> it just restarts the gdm and i must login again
[11:33] <gharz> rambo3, ok. thanks for the info. i'll check that
[11:33] <Ali_ix> *there
[11:33] <Dell-Net> i have edge
[11:34] <Dell-Net> can it be a update?
[11:34] <kuba> dxdt: so lsmod is the list of compiled modules?
[11:34] <Blast_Hardcheese> Hmm.
[11:34] <Blast_Hardcheese> Question: Is there a way to upgrade from Dapper to Edgy Eft?
[11:34] <Ali_ix> Dell-Net: feisty will be released on 19th april

[11:35] <Dell-Net> Ali_ix: yeah i know but i want my edge to work again
[11:35] <kane77> isnt there a way to have animated background in gnome? it might be cool :)
[11:35] <Blast_Hardcheese> I would really not like to install again, (I was installing this for a friend, I went for long-term support, but it doesn't work with Beryl)
[11:36] <rambo3> gharz, ? explain

[11:38] <IndyGunFreak> Dell-Net: do you think you could use lynx to surf ubuntuforums.org?

[11:44] <Z3Bra> hello.. wondering if someone can offer a newish-be some help in upgrading 6.06.1 to 6.10 (server that is) some aspects of the docs i dont understand as new to linux stuff
[11:44] <cole> man ##windows is so noob- i asked how to add a network folder as a shell extension and no one knows
[11:44] <gharz> guys, how do i remove old kernels?
[11:44] <Z3Bra> cole ... map it.
[11:44] <cole> how?
[11:44] <gabz> gharz, you can remove them with apt get
[11:45] <Z3Bra> what windows u usin ?
[11:45] <cole> xp sp2
[11:45] <gharz> gabz, really?
[11:45] <tovella> Dell-Net: ...restarts and i must login again.  i used to have the same problem.
[11:45] <Blast_Hardcheese> :3
[11:45] <Z3Bra> cole goto the networl folder u want.. right click.. select "Map drive"
[11:45] <Dell-Net> tovella: yes ?
[11:45] <NotKevinBacon> hi guys :) just after a nice VPN client
[11:45] <gabz> gharz, it's real easy in synaptic just right click and go remove
[11:46] <cole> so- on other computers in the network- they will see that folder as a network drive
[11:46] <Dell-Net> tovella: did u solv it ?
[11:46] <gharz> gabz, remove an old kernel in synaptic? uhmmm... i'm gonna check on it. thanks, gabz
[11:46] <cole> not that drive as a network drive- but the folder as a network folder/drive
[11:46] <Z3Bra> its on a PR PC bases
[11:46] <Z3Bra> ud have to map it on each pc.. or add it to your login script if u use one
[11:46] <tovella> Dell-Net: yeah.  it must have been something in .gconf or one of the .gnome directories that was screwed up.
[11:47] <gabz> gharz, the deb system makes these things much easier
[11:47] <tovella> Dell-Net: i deleted them, and selectively restored from a backup - just enough to get my evolution contacts & calendars back.
[11:47] <Dell-Net> any ideas ?
[11:48] <sancho> Hallo everyone.
[11:48] <Dell-Net> hm I cant even login my gdm just restart when i try that, a loop
[11:48] <sancho> I's like to ask for an advice, can I?
[11:48] <gabz> !time
[11:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about time - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:48] <gabz> yes
[11:48] <cole> Z3Bra: i dont see map drive
[11:49] <Blast_Hardcheese> In other news, Upgrading from 6.06 to 6.10 is about as interesting as watching paint dry

[11:49] <Blast_Hardcheese> s/interesting/exciting/

[11:50] <Blast_Hardcheese> Z3Bra: you can't?
[11:50] <Bhaskar> ubotu,now i have 1024x768 resolution and 60HZ frequency now i want to increase frequency coz flickering but how?
[11:50] <r00tintheb0x> Z3Bra, you have to register w/freenode
[11:50] <cole> forget it, im peacin out
[11:50] <tovella> Dell-Net: I would create another user (from a console) & try to login via gdm with the new userid.
[11:50] <sancho> Does anyone have some advice on DPMS? I'd like to use Ubuntu as home media center, but it turns off the TV after 30 minutes as DPMS and I have to move mouse. When I log in in remote screen, I can run xset dms force on, but after reboot the situation repeats.
[11:50] <sancho> Any advice?
[11:50] <Dell-Net> tovella:  ok gonna try that
[11:50] <Z3Bra> cole .. on the left select "my network places" /  entire network / fid your pc/folder etc.. then click on it... right click.. should give u a "map drive" option
[11:51] <cole> cause this battery was drained in 1hour and 50 mins: 15% right now
[11:51] <tovella> Dell-Net: do you get any error messages?
[11:51] <cole> i didnt see it and just did that, Z3Bra

[11:52] <Z3Bra> ah
[11:52] <Z3Bra> any sorta remote admin software ?
[11:52] <dragonkh> hello
[11:52] <cole> negative
[11:52] <tovella> Dell-Net: then the best suggestion i can think of is the create test userid...
[11:52] <Z3Bra> umm...
[11:52] <r00tintheb0x> yeah Z3Bra "ssh"
[11:52] <Bhaskar> cole, i have 1024x768 resolution and 60HZ frequency now i want to increase frequency coz flickering but how?

[11:53] <gabz> Z3Bra, putty is the windows client for ssh
[11:53] <sancho> No hints?Dell-Net: Try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[11:53] <sancho> Dell-Net: Try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[11:53] <cole> Bhaskar: google it and see if you find anything on changing that refresh rate

[12:05] <Boopop> any ideas?
[12:06] <ompaul> cole, please stay on topic, i.e. ubuntu support related stuff, chatting in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:06] <tovella> Dell-Net: cool, that should at least give an idea about what road to look down.
[12:06] <cole> ompaul: when did i go off topic?
[12:07] <Boopop> Anybody?
[12:07] <ompaul> cole, laughing out loud at yourself for typing - the use of multiple enter keys :)

[12:09] <cole> boopop: it says: u need linux_restricted-modules
[12:09] <tovella> Dell-Net: try /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:10] <tovella> Dell-Net: the problem is likely to be in the last 40 lines.
[12:11] <Boopop> anyone?
[12:11] <cole_> sorry
[12:11] <r00tintheb0x> Boopop, whats the problem?
[12:11] <r00tintheb0x> Boopop, what are you on now?
[12:12] <Boopop> XP now :P
[12:12] <cole_> boopop: install linux-restricted-modules package by typing:
[12:12] <Boopop> Erm, I installed this Ubuntu Gamers edition iso i found which supposedly has "intergrated nvidia drivers"
[12:12] <Dell-Net> tovella: cant open dev/wacom
[12:12] <cole_> $ sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-ENTERBUILDHERE

[12:13] <Boopop> and how do i get into terminal without x working?
[12:13] <tovella> Dell-Net: i think wacom is a touchscreen or tablet.
[12:13] <Dell-Net> tovella: could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/x11/ttf
[12:14] <cole_> for example: if it outputs version "2.6.15-17-686" then use sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-17-686
[12:14] <Dell-Net> otf and sid

[12:15] <cole_> boopop: if you have tnt*, geforce, geforce2 card install the glx-legacy or for newer models- 4series,6, nforce , quadro, or fx install nvidia-glx
[12:15] <tovella> Dell-Net: have you done an update / upgrade lately?
[12:16] <cole_> boopop: i killed gdm and gnome somehow
[12:16] <rickyfingers_> Bopoop: all you have is the terminal without X.  Maybe just hit enter, and you should see a log in prompt.
[12:16] <Dell-Net> tovella: the usually update from ubuntu yesterday
[12:16] <Dell-Net> no upgrade
[12:16] <Dell-Net> s
[12:16] <cole_> boopop: but you dont need to if you do what im saying :P
[12:16] <Boopop> nope, all i get is a flashing line with which i can type in and press enter, and nothing happens
[12:16] <NotKevinBacon> anyone know a VNC client?
[12:17] <cole_> boopop: then do- sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[12:17] <NotKevinBacon> sorry, VPN client
[12:17] <Boopop> yes, I've got nvidia-glx installed already
[12:17] <tovella> Dell-Net: this problem started just after the update?
[12:17] <rickyfingers_> Boopop: try pressing ctrl-alt-f1 or ctrl-alt-f2 to switch tty's maybe you'll get a prompt then.
[12:17] <Broady> !mount
[12:17] <cole_> edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf  and look for "Driver          "nv" " and change it to "Driver               "nvidia" "
[12:17] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[12:17] <Dell-Net> tovella: seems so
[12:18] <Broady> !DiskMounter > Broady
[12:18] <Boopop> Ok, I'll write all this down and try installing restricted modules :P
[12:18] <cole_> then ctrl+alt+backspace and it should flash an nvidia logo and there you have it
[12:18] <tovella> Dell-Net: my guess is that some other files in the repository got updated before you PC finished it's update.
[12:18] <cole_> sorry if i just kept going there, boopop, i was typing it all while reading it from some ubuntu hacks book that i got for free
[12:18] <cole_> its not bad actually
[12:19] <tovella> Dell-Net: so some stuff is "out of sync", so to speak.
[12:19] <cole_> i gtg cya guys later
[12:19] <Boopop> cya

[12:40] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:40] <Dell-Net> there u start program automatic
[12:40] <mifritscher> ompaul, I don't think it is a bug, it is a missing feature ;)
[12:40] <tovella> Dell-Net: not sure what you mean.  ??
[12:40] <ompaul> mifritscher, amounts to the same thing, unexplained strange behaviour as far as you are concerned
[12:41] <ompaul> mifritscher, suggest it via a bug report
[12:41] <mifritscher> ok, I'll try it ;-)
[12:41] <Dell-Net> tovella: there u can start program automatic in ubuntu

[12:42] <Bhaskar> i have just 60HZ now
[12:43] <Shadowpillar> http://pidgin.im/
[12:43] <Dell-Net> tovella: yes
[12:43] <Bhaskar> i want to increase it coz flickering
[12:43] <tovella> Dell-Net: i'm not sure.
[12:44] <zylche> first, you don't bug me when I didn't talk.
[12:44] <zylche> Second, increase power to the screen.
[12:44] <Mr_Bunny_> Is the Ubuntu clock set to a different time than crontab?
[12:45] <Dell-Net> found it etc/xdg
[12:45] <Dell-Net> autostart
[12:46] <Bhaskar> zylche,  Second, increase power to the screen.????
[12:47] <ross> anyone have any ideas why some programs won't load from add/remove says computer type i386 ???
[12:47] <Mr_Bunny_> Bhaskar: System>Preferences>Screen Resolution. Change the refresh rate to a higher number.
[12:48] <zylche> You forgot Rule #1!
[12:48] <Mr_Bunny_> ross: You're trying to load programs that aren't compatible with your processor type.
[12:49] <Bhaskar> Mr_Bunny_, there is only one 60HZ i want to increase it coz flickering

[12:52] <ross> do some programs not run on an intel chip
[12:53] <Desmaano> ross: programs are written for a certain processor architecture, i386 software wont work on a powerpc proc
[12:54] <jburd> ross, which programs are you trying to use?
[12:55] <ross> Desmaano I have a intel centrino duo about 75% of programs in add/remove won't load, think I may have done something wrong
[12:55] <jburd> ross, can you name some of them?

[12:58] <ross> Bittornado Client cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[12:59] <jburd> ross, that is very weird.
[01:00] <jburd> The Bittornado client has been writen in Python and wxPython.  I don't see why you shouldn't be able to install it...
[01:01] <Dell-Net> i have white screen
[01:01] <Dell-Net> freacky22527: cant see what im doing
[01:01] <tovella> Dell-Net: killall beryl
[01:01] <ross> jburd: most programs in there say it... I have ran all updates etc today, only thing I have had to play with is iburst modem.... compliled that and had to play in some files but was pretty careful
[01:01] <freacky22527> Dell-Net: you perhaps should reboot :/
[01:02] <NotKevinBacon> does anyone know anything about vpn?
[01:02] <freacky22527> NotKevinBacon: just a bit, why?
[01:02] <rickyfingers_> NotKevinBacon: openswan
[01:02] <NotKevinBacon> cant seen to get it to work
[01:02] <NotKevinBacon> is there a nice gui one?
[01:02] <freacky22527> NotKevinBacon: or openvpn
[01:02] <NotKevinBacon> like,i dont know how to use them in commandline
[01:02] <ompaul> NotKevinBacon, openvpn as for a gui you need to get the tools from kde for it
[01:03] <ross> I have rebooted 3 times is painful to get back on net as have to use moddprobe to start iburst modem for some reason
[01:03] <Dell-Net> freacky22527: thx got in to my gnome again
[01:03] <jburd> NotKevinBacon, are you trying to connect to a vpn?
[01:03] <NotKevinBacon> yeah
[01:03] <Dell-Net> tovella: thx for u your help to
[01:03] <freacky22527> Dell-Net: ;)
[01:03] <Bhaskar> i want to display my name and photo in login screen for this where can i add
[01:03] <tovella> no problem.
[01:03] <jburd> Have you created a configuration file with all your certificates and configuration specified?
[01:03] <ompaul> NotKevinBacon, the full instructions are in the faq on the openvpn site and it is easy if you follow it "slowly" and don't block connections it wants on the firewall
[01:04] <Bhaskar> Mr_Bunny_, i want to display my name and photo in login screen for this where can i add
[01:04] <NotKevinBacon> hmmm. ok, i guess theres no quick fix like in windows then
[01:04] <jburd> NotKevinBacon, there is.
[01:04] <NotKevinBacon> jburd; what is it?
[01:05] <ompaul> NotKevinBacon, I told ya where to get the gui
[01:05] <ross> jburd: is there any modules I might have to add... I had to add essentials pack to compile modem.. do I need others to run certain programs
[01:05] <jburd> NotKevinBacon, ompaul told you.
[01:05] <NotKevinBacon> is it called kvpnc?
[01:05] <jburd> Yes.
[01:05] <Mr_Bunny_> Bhaskar, My guess would be System>Administration>Login Window, but I can't check currently
[01:05] <purez> ehm
[01:06] <NotKevinBacon> ompaul: ive tried kvpnc, doesnt do it
[01:06] <jburd> You could also learn to connect using the command line.   It's pretty simple really. All you have to do is type    openvpn --config Config.ovpn
[01:06] <ompaul> NotKevinBacon, well openvpn faq if followed should get you using it inside 30 mins once it is all installed on both ends
[01:07] <ompaul> there is a "quick and dirty" setup
[01:07] <NotKevinBacon> oh ok, so its gotta be goin on both ends?
[01:07] <NotKevinBacon> like, work have a vpn setup already, im just tryin to get to it
[01:08] <ompaul> NotKevinBacon, no the software must have a server side and a client side but the program must run on both ends to allow for creating a tunnel between the two machines
[01:08] <NotKevinBacon> oh ok
[01:08] <NotKevinBacon> right, so ill have to ask work what theyve got at work
[01:08] <chillisoup> Hi all.   Is there a way to change the X11 display an application is connected to _on the fly_?
[01:08] <ross> jburd any ideas... aMSN cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[01:08] <ompaul> most likely a cisco - you can do a vpn over ssh also
[01:09] <Bhaskar> Mr_Bunny_, this is not the idea but i think some change in init file but i am not sure can u suggest?
[01:09] <NotKevinBacon> sorry for my ignorance, ive been put onto ubuntu just recently, so im just learning, thanks for your pacience guys
[01:09] <ompaul> NotKevinBacon, ^^ see my cisco comment
[01:09] <ompaul> NotKevinBacon, it is rewarding if you put in the time
[01:09] <purez> anyone here^ :p
[01:09] <Mr_Bunny_> Bhaskar, I'm not quite sure what you mean. You want to change the background of the login screen, correct?
[01:10] <NotKevinBacon> yes, its quite a bit faster and i like how that it doesnt do things behind my back
[01:10] <jburd> ross, I'm surprised you are unable to get these programs to work.  Both of the applications that you specified are written in interpreted languages...
[01:10] <jburd> Does your python installation work?
[01:10] <Bhaskar> Mr_Bunny_, ya and want to add my nane also there
[01:10] <Desmaano> can someone help me to find the problem why ubuntu doesnt start up ?:((
[01:10] <jburd> ross, try typing:   python -V and paste the output here please.
[01:10] <NotKevinBacon> but, this isnt a fan club :), ill stop taking up your time now, thanks guys :-)
[01:11] <ross> jburd: do I need to login as root ???
[01:11] <Mr_Bunny_> Bhaskar, My guess would be that you'd need to edit whatever picture you want as background to include your name too.
[01:11] <jburd> ross, nope.
[01:11] <ompaul> !root > ross (ross read the message from the bot)

[01:13] <Bhaskar> Mr_Bunny, ya but i think this should be included in init file or where?
[01:13] <malcher> Paddy_EIRE: i use kubuntu and knetworkmanager worked without any problems
[01:13] <malcher> Paddy_EIRE: or try via wpa_supplicant

Anyone know of some boot options I can try to get the screen running?....switching to consol also comes up with funky colours
[01:18] <malcher> theoryx: su is disabled
[01:18] <malcher> use sudo instead
[01:18] <jburd> ross, I think that is weird behavior.  You should be able to install programs written in Python irrespective of the architecture.
[01:18] <malcher> sudo command
[01:18] <malcher> pw is your pw
[01:18] <jburd> This might be a bug so please report a bug.

[01:19] <vmlemon> Hi, is there a way to make certain kernel modules always load at bootup?

[01:19] <schoppenhauer> Hello. Is there any GUI for connecting to Wireless LAN in Ubuntu (under GNOME), or do i have to use iwconfig directly?

[01:25] <Paddy_EIRE> no probs
[01:25] <Desmaano> i think its a problem with my fsck

[01:26] <Desmaano> rambo3: yess ?
[01:26] <jburd> ross, yes.
[01:27] <rambo3> Desmaano there is nothing wrong with fsck
[01:27] <ross> jburd.. it look right.. 686 ?
[01:27] <jburd> ross, yes.
[01:27] <Heavenquake> How do I get java 1.5?

[01:27] <Desmaano> rambo3: i mean my fsck gives errors, need to start it manually or something
[01:28] <jburd> ross, simply follow the instructions on that page.  Provide whatever information you can provide about your system.
[01:28] <Desmaano> !gdm
[01:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gdm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:29] <Desmaano> ok guys gotta go, break my bones at the skating park :P

[01:31] <dani_> with  avant window navigator there is a big black area... i don't know why... it work with ati driver closed?
[01:33] <crazyl1nk> help T_T
[01:33] <crazyl1nk> can anyone see this?
[01:33] <spikeb> i can.
[01:34] <crazyl1nk> im having some problems with my OS that i cant dance around anymore
[01:34] <spikeb> such as?
[01:34] <crazyl1nk> i cant 1, update 2. install. and 3, unpack .rar files at all.
[01:34] <nicolah> guys I need to do a hard format, low level format: the most hardcore one with ext2
[01:34] <nicolah> what's the right parameter ?
[01:34] <spikeb> crazyl1nk, did you install unrar and rar?
[01:35] <Enverex> nicolah, There's been no such thing as low level formats since the advent of like, IDE HDs bigger than 100MB
[01:35] <ross> jburd: have just registered on that page and will fill it out when mail arrives.... could it be anything I haven't set up like graphics acceleration ??
[01:35] <crazyl1nk> id normaly have automatix do it, buuuuut i cant even use that
[01:35] <crazyl1nk> nor can i use normal ubuntu updates.
[01:35] <Enverex> nicolah, Just delete all the partitions with fdisk then repartition it then format using mkfs.ext2
[01:35] <spikeb> er
[01:35] <jburd> ross, no.  I suspect package management is unable to determine your system architecture.
[01:35] <spikeb> crazyl1nk, why not?
[01:35] <crazyl1nk> i get errors for all.
[01:36] <crazyl1nk> i dont know
[01:36] <crazyl1nk> it just started happening one night
[01:36] <spikeb> hmm, what sort of errors?
[01:36] <crazyl1nk> lets see.
[01:36] <crazyl1nk> one sec
[01:36] <nicolah> ok Enverex, using gnome partitio editor would help ?
[01:36] <ross> jburd: thanks heaps for you help... greatly appreciated
[01:36] <Enverex> nicolah, No, if you want to do it properly use the stuff in the terminal like I just said
[01:36] <nicolah> ok
[01:36] <nicolah> thanks
[01:36] <Enverex> crazyl1nk, Can you do "sudo apt-get install -f"?
[01:36] <crazyl1nk> when i try and normaly update my OS i get, great i dont even get an error for that anymore the window just closes
[01:37] <jburd> You're welcome ross.
[01:37] <crazyl1nk> sure one sec

[01:40] <Enverex> crazyl1nk, The file it references, delete it
[01:40] <Enverex> J-B[away] , It could, it may also not support it, look it up

[01:42] <nicolah> guys what's the command to exit fdisk ? thanks
[01:42] <crazyl1nk> Enverex, it will not allow me
[01:42] <nicolah> ok it was w
[01:43] <Enverex> crazyl1nk, use sudo
[01:43] <kuba> Merry Christmas
[01:44] <kuba> I've got a question: in directory /lib/modules are modules only loaded or modules loaded and not loaded(all)??
[01:45] <crazyl1nk> Enverex, can you type out the command that id use, my hands are in pain i was in an ac that left me with a few fracs
[01:48] <crazyl1nk> Enverex, what is the command?
[01:49] <coldfish> When i try to install mac-style gnome menubar, default gnome menubar is broken. In any gnome application, their menubars are always in the left corner of the desktop. How can i fix it? picture: http://coldfish.org/upload/Screenshot.jpeg
[01:49] <SlimeyPete> crazyl1nk: "sudo rm <file>"
[01:50] <propan0> can someone help a newbie out... my sound is totaly not working... i get "No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found." when clicking on the volume icon here
[01:51] <propan0> i have followed the "Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide v0.5e" http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449  without any luck :S
[01:51] <SlimeyPete> if you go into a terminal and type "alsamixer", doe sit work?
[01:52] <Neuling> well me too i do get no sound seems to be a common problem of ubuntu?
[01:52] <propan0> i get "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"
[01:52] <Daverocks> propan0: do "sudo lshw -class sound"
[01:52] <Linux_Galore> propan0: what do you get when you type asoundconf list
[01:52] <Blissex> propan0: http://WWW.sabi.co.UK/Notes/linuxSoundALSA.html the troubleshooting section
[01:53] <nicolah> Enverex, thanks. I'm done
[01:53] <crazyl1nk> it shell not let me remove the file over sudo
[01:53] <coldfish> Linux_Galore, how can i fix it?
[01:54] <propan0> Daverocks : this is what i get on that http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14551/
[01:54] <Linux_Galore> coldfish: become a beryl developer and fix it
[01:54] <Linux_Galore> coldfish: beryl is still not stable to you "will" have issues
[01:54] <crazyl1nk> Enverex, it will not let me use sudo to remove it
[01:54] <Linux_Galore> so*
[01:54] <propan0> i get nothing Linux_Galore
[01:55] <Linux_Galore> propan0: hmm means alsa doesnt see the sound card
[01:55] <Daverocks> propan0: ok, look at "lsmod | grep snd"
[01:55] <propan0> ok Linux_Galore
[01:55] <coldfish> Linux_Galore, thanks
[01:55] <propan0> let me check daverocks
[01:55] <Neuling> i get the name of my soundcard then
[01:55] <mifritscher> how can I solve this:  slapadd: line 14: database (dc=fritscher) not configured to hold "dc=localdomain"
[01:55] <Neuling> but however i dont get any sound
[01:56] <propan0> nothing comes out Daverocks
[01:56] <Daverocks> propan0: ok, if you just type lsmod, tons of stuff comes out, right?
[01:56] <Linux_Galore> propan0: did you diwsable plug and play in the bios (if its there) and turn power management off
[01:56] <Linux_Galore> disable*
[01:57] <propan0> yes Daverocks
[01:57] <Daverocks> coldfish: it really should work
[01:57] <nicolah> Enverex, I'm not sure it was a low level format because it took less then 20 seconds for format 4 giga. After erasing and creating the partition I used sudo mkfs -t ext2 /dev/sdf1
[01:57] <propan0> hummm not that i know of Linux_Galore
[01:57] <propan0> i will double check that when i reboot
[01:57] <Enverex> nicolah, I already told you, there is no such thing as a Low Level format anymore
[01:57] <Linux_Galore> propan0: I suspect and irq problem
[01:57] <nicolah> ah ok
[01:57] <Linux_Galore> an*
[01:57] <coldfish> Daverocks, :(
[01:58] <nicolah> what's the command to check if the disk has some bad problem ?
[01:58] <Daverocks> propan0: well no drivers are being loaded for your card, which is weird, i have a machine here that also has a sound problem, the drivers are always loaded but sometimes alsa doesn't see it. turning it off, shaking the box a bit, and turning it on usually fixes it here. i think there's a bad connection somewhere in there :P
[01:58] <haleq> fsck
[01:59] <hotti> nicolah: fsck
[01:59] <nicolah> thanks haleq and hotti
[01:59] <Daverocks> coldfish: and it's fine when beryl is off?
[01:59] <propan0> heheh daverocks  the soundcard works properly on winxp (ew)
[01:59] <Daverocks> propan0: yeah, it's just not loading any drivers, which is strange
[01:59] <Linux_Galore> nicolah: fsck.ext3 /dev/hda[1,2,3,4etc]
[01:59] <propan0> very yes
[02:00] <propan0> im only on linux for some months though, so is it possible to "reinstall the drivers" oslt?
[02:00] <Linux_Galore> propan0: not a driver issue
[02:00] <ctothej> I would like to map buttons 1 and 3 from my mouse to a key combo, but only when they are pressed together, how can i do this?
[02:00] <Linux_Galore> propan0: basically I suspect the bios is forcing an irq thats causing a collision
[02:01] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: then he'd have the problem on windows
[02:01] <nox-Hand_> Hey
[02:01] <crazyl1nk> Enverex, i cant remove the file with sudo
[02:01] <propan0> true daverocks (i guess)
[02:01] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: not always, dont forget the defaults are often windows centric
[02:01] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: i guess
[02:01] <propan0> ah
[02:01] <propan0> i c
[02:01] <nox-Hand_> Does anyone know of a simple capture program? I have this camera on my TV card which I want to display and possibly record video with... it registers fine on aMSN etc, so Ijust need a prograam to play/record.
[02:01] <nox-Hand_> Can't mplayer play it?:)
[02:01] <propan0> perhaps i should checkout what u suggested in the bios and then come back in >
[02:02] <Daverocks> nox-Hand: absolutely, it has to do with a tv:// protocol given to mplayer, there was a better command, let me grab it
[02:02] <Linux_Galore> !webcam
[02:02] <ubotu> Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[02:03] <Daverocks> nox-Hand: mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l:width=352:height=288:device=/dev/video0
[02:03] <coldfish> i tried but same..xgl works fine. i think the problem is related with the gnome.
[02:04] <Daverocks> nox-Hand: you could use mencoder instead of mplayer, to record
[02:04] <Daverocks> coldfish: yeah, i was thinking so too
[02:04] <Daverocks> coldfish: this "mac-style" menubar
[02:04] <Linux_Galore> coldfish: its still all very experimental, they havent written code yet for everything on the desktop
[02:04] <Daverocks> heh, KDE supports mac style menus built-in ^_^
[02:05] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: if i understand correctly, he/she has the problem even when beryl is not running
[02:05] <coldfish> yes,i tried to install it in the morning..
[02:05] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: it's this "mac menubar" thing
[02:05] <larson9999> mac style?  i'd buy a mac if that's what i wanted.  i want linux style
[02:05] <equilibrix> hi guys, anyone can help me with my problem? When trying to compile a program, I get "undefined reference to `clock_gettime'" error.. I guess I'm missing some gcc library or something, anybody knows anything about it?
[02:05] <coldfish> any suggest?
[02:05] <propan0> k just finishing an update here, will reboot in a sec
[02:05] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: OSX is sooo 2000, wish people would get over it
[02:06] <Daverocks> coldfish: has it always been broken since you installed the mac menu thing?
[02:06] <coldfish> it's broken since i installed the macmenu bar
[02:07] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: haha, it's "matured". ;) but the mac hardware has gotten a lot better, so we can finally have OSX in a usable state
[02:07] <Blast_Hardcheese> Linux_Galore: Linux is sooo 1992, ;)
[02:07] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: like, you couldn't use OSX in 2000, it was very slow
[02:07] <BSG75> anyone know how I can control gamma for 945gm intel video
[02:07] <coldfish> Where is the conf files of the gtk-menubar?
[02:07] <BSG75> it's built into this laptop
[02:07] <eRazo1> hi everyone
[02:07] <crazyl1nk> can anyone help delete this file?
[02:07] <Daverocks> coldfish: wait, isn't that the expected behaviour of the mac menu bar? that it's at the top?
[02:07] <Linux_Galore> to be honest if you want an OSX clone desktop gnome isnt the the best, try kde, it even has a OSX theme engine add on (baghira)
[02:08] <Blast_Hardcheese> and now after pissing off one of the people that can probably help me with my problem, I ask my question:
[02:08] <equilibrix> hi guys, anyone can help me with my problem? When trying to compile a program, I get "undefined reference to `clock_gettime'" error.. I guess I'm missing some gcc library or something, anybody knows anything about it?
[02:08] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: agreed ;)
[02:08] <eRazo1> Can somebody help me how to create an offline repos of the packages
[02:08] <eRazo1> ?
[02:08] <eRazo1> In a CD?
[02:08] <Stoffelito> hi everybody. i've got a weird networking problem. after some period of time my download speed decreases to 40kb/s (though 600+ kb/s are possible). shutting down and bringing up the network interface again restores "normal" speeds which decrease after some time again. i already tried disabling ipv6, setting tcp_window_scaling to 0 but none solved the problem... any ideas?
[02:08] <coldfish> yes, at the left corner of the desktop: www.coldfish.org/upload/Screenshot.jpeg :)
[02:09] <Blast_Hardcheese> I'm trying to build the nvidia drivers for my FX5700LE, It worked on Dapper, but after upgrading to 6.10 it asks for kernel sources. when I apt-get install kernel-sources, it can't find version.h... is kernel-sources the correct package?
[02:09] <Daverocks> coldfish: isn't that how the mac menubar is supposed to act, though?
[02:09] <Linux_Galore> I did the OSX cloning thing about 3 years ago, Gnome is so so, kde thanks to Baghira gets it dead on, they even have two docker clones to choose from
[02:10] <Daverocks> BSG75: you can do it in xorg.conf, let me check
[02:10] <Blast_Hardcheese> coldfish: That actually what any "mac menubar" thing should do
[02:10] <Blast_Hardcheese> *that's
[02:10] <eRazo1> can someone help me to create an offline repositories of the packages I download and install so I can use those packages later rather than downloading it again
[02:10] <eRazo1> ?
[02:10] <Linux_Galore> !repo
[02:10] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[02:10] <Daverocks> BSG75: yeah, in the "Monitor" section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf , you can add "gamma 1.0" or whatever you want. should work with the 945gm
[02:10] <squire> hi - happy easter!
[02:11] <Blast_Hardcheese> Is kernel-sources the correct package name for Ubuntu sources?
[02:11] <Blast_Hardcheese> *ubuntu kernel sources
[02:11] <equilibrix> hi guys, I got a "undefined reference to `clock_gettime'" error when trying to compile a program (siefs).. I guess I'm missing some gcc library or something, anybody knows anything about it?
[02:12] <Blast_Hardcheese> Apparently I'm missing include/version.h
[02:12] <Pheonix911> how would I go about beggining development for Ubuntu?  I'm eager to contribute, is there a guide out there?
[02:12] <Rprp>   Boli ChanServ Duiv HCbobHC Ontbijt Rprp Wesleysld
[02:12] <Daverocks> Blast_Hardcheese: maybe install linux-kernel-headers ?

[02:13] <kuba> can anyone help me-how to install a translation from https://translations.launchpad.net (i've already downloaded translation)??
[02:14] <equilibrix> hi guys, I got a "undefined reference to `clock_gettime'" error when trying to compile a program (siefs).. I guess I'm missing some gcc library or something, anybody knows anything about it?
[02:14] <Blast_Hardcheese> Daverocks: Hmm.... the package doesn't have any installation candidate
[02:14] <Pheonix911> I'm wondering how I can go about learning how to begin development contributions to Ubuntu ... Can anyone assist me, or point me in the correct direction?
[02:14] <squire> anyone got any opinions on feisty fawn?
[02:15] <Linux_Galore> squire: wait
[02:15] <Daverocks> Blast_Hardcheese: hm, have you got build-essential installed?
[02:15] <Blast_Hardcheese> Daverocks: Maybe not, hold on
[02:16] <Blast_Hardcheese> yep
[02:16] <squire> i don't think i've ever been this impressed - and that is saying something
[02:17] <Linux_Galore> PHoeNiGoRe: ubuntu is actually a a distro based on many projects, best to pick a project that you like, it will filter down
[02:17] <Daverocks> Blast_Hardcheese: hum. i'm not sure, the
[02:17] <Daverocks> *then
[02:17] <Enverex|LT> How do I append a location to $PATH?
[02:18] <erle-> hi
[02:18] <Blast_Hardcheese> export PATH=$PATH:/newpath
[02:18] <nhy> what are the names of the opengl headers on ubuntu?
[02:18] <erle-> how can i make a program use alsa, if it uses oss per default
[02:18] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: hey, can i ask about baghira (you were talking about it earlier) is it easy to switch back to a normal theme (from baghira) in the kde theme manager?
[02:18] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: yep, just select another theme in kcontrol
[02:18] <Daverocks> erle-: if a program uses oss and it doesn't have an option that allows you to make it use alsa, you need to use alsa-oss emulation
[02:19] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: awesome, thanks
[02:19] <nhy> I'm trying to compile an opengl program and it can't find the headers
[02:19] <nox-Hand_> Thanks Daverocks, I didn't even soo your message :|
[02:19] <nox-Hand_> I am trying now:D
[02:19] <Daverocks> nox-Hand: no problem ;)
[02:19] <Daverocks> nox-Hand: if your video device is different, you may need to modify the command a bit
[02:19] <nox-Hand_> Daverocks: Playing green screen. Ithink that's S-Video, not COmposite on my TV Card
[02:20] <nox-Hand> Daverocks: Lemme look
[02:20] <erle-> Daverocks: is alsa-oss not installed by default?
[02:20] <Daverocks> nox-Hand: kk
[02:20] <Blast_Hardcheese> Hum... I'm using 2.6.17-11, but I only have the kernel-sources for 2.4.xx
[02:20] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: I use serenity right now -> http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Serenity?content=35954
[02:20] <erle-> the program makes sound, Daverocks
[02:20] <Daverocks> erle-: you should have it, but you need to specify that certain programs must use the emulation
[02:20] <erle-> Daverocks: but i want it to be mixed
[02:20] <Daverocks> erle-: so you can hear the sound?
[02:20] <burepe> When I plug in a usb decive it is not showing up, What can I do to fix it?
[02:21] <Daverocks> erle-: ah
[02:21] <erle-> i explain
[02:21] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: Im bored with all the Vista/Windows/OSX  clones
[02:21] <erle-> i am usually using gentoo linux
[02:21] <nox-Hand> Daverocks: No idea how to change which part of the card x)
[02:21] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: looks interesting
[02:21] <erle-> there i type the command "aoss foobar" and the programm foobar is wrapped and mixed by alsa
[02:21] <erle-> like a native alsa pp
[02:21] <erle-> app
[02:21] <Daverocks> nox-Hand: ls -l /dev/video*
[02:22] <Daverocks> erle-: yep, was going to say that
[02:22] <erle-> is there a wrapper in ubuntu?
[02:22] <propan0> ok i have enabled plug & play and turned off powermanagement on the bios
[02:22] <erle-> i don't find "aoss"
[02:22] <nox-Hand> Daverocks: crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 0 2007-04-08 13:20 /dev/video0
[02:22] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: the screen shots to be honest are not very good, the theme engine has allot of not so harsh effects
[02:22] <propan0> stil no sound here :S
[02:22] <propan0> i suppose i will follow that alsa troubleshooting page someone mentioned
[02:23] <Daverocks> erle-: i'm not sure, maybe there's a package you need to install for alsa-oss emulation
[02:23] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: heh
[02:23] <nhy> whate are the correct headers for opengl on ubuntu?
[02:23] <Blast_Hardcheese> Sorry to bother again Daverocks, kernel-sources is only installing the 2.4 kernel sources, not the 2.6 ones. I upgraded from 6.06 to 6.10 a couple hours ago... I think that's why
[02:23] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: this is my setup -> http://users.tpg.com.au/abdserv6/serenity1.png
[02:24] <Daverocks> Blast_Hardcheese: ok, but 6.06 doesn't use a 2.4 kernel ;)
[02:24] <erle-> Daverocks: thanks, there is a package in the repository that looks to be the right one
[02:24] <Linux_Galore> Blast_Hardcheese: ?? why have you got the 2.4 kernel. is the machine very old ?
[02:24] <Blast_Hardcheese> Linux_Galore: AMD64 2800+
[02:25] <Blast_Hardcheese> Not my computer, I just did an install about 8 hours ago
[02:25] <Blast_Hardcheese> (I've been working on it all night... it's 5:30AM
[02:25] <Linux_Galore> Blast_Hardcheese: hmm well you need to 2.6 headers
[02:25] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: heh, you can get that dumb suse menu in kubuntu?
[02:25] <Blast_Hardcheese> when I sudo apt-get install kernel-source it gives me 2.4
[02:25] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: kickoff. yes I have that
[02:26] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: i use opensuse 10.2 and i don't like kickoff :P
[02:26] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: its optional, it not there by default
[02:26] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: i see
[02:27] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: see http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Kubuntu+with+Suse+Kickoff+Edgy+Elf+6.10?content=50240
[02:27] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: you have to add it
[02:27] <Daverocks> Linux_Galore: yeah, they wouldn't include it
[02:27] <Linux_Galore> Daverocks: it hasnt got a config tool yet so its a bit sucky
[02:27] <erle-> Daverocks: the application gets a segmentation fault when i use the wrapper ;(
[02:28] <propan0> ok about my sound problem... i ran aadebug, this is the results: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14557/
[02:28] <Daverocks> erle-: never good :P
[02:28] <Blast_Hardcheese> Linux_Galore: Is linux-kernel-headers the wrong package to be installing? It's giving me something about a virtual package provided by linux-libc-dev (kernel-version)
[02:28] <erle-> Daverocks: in my gentoo installation at home it works fine
[02:28] <Blast_Hardcheese> but it won't install anything
[02:28] <erle-> Daverocks: i will play now without music in the background
[02:28] <Linux_Galore> Blast_Hardcheese: look at the kernel version noted with the package, it should match what you are using
[02:29] <Blast_Hardcheese> Linux_Galore: It does
[02:29] <Blast_Hardcheese> but it won't install, since it's a virtual package
[02:29] <Linux_Galore> Blast_Hardcheese: so you running 2.4 ?
[02:29] <Blast_Hardcheese> No
[02:29] <Blast_Hardcheese> I am running 2.6.xx
[02:30] <propan0> it looks to me that my sound install is in really bad shape :S
[02:31] <Linux_Galore> Blast_Hardcheese: it should be called linux-headers
[02:31] <unimatrix9> hello there you all...
[02:31] <marco__> does anybody know a nice OSX like dock that works on ubuntu 6.10?
[02:31] <Blast_Hardcheese> Linux_Galore: Ah, I was doing kernel-sources
[02:31] <Blast_Hardcheese> Thank you
[02:32] <unimatrix9> marco_ the normal gnome menu?
[02:32] <eexpress> hi, i want modify some key under tty. just like xmodmap done it. want esc -> f11....my esc key is bad now.
[02:32] <kane77> sometimes it happens that I have a file that is executable and running it ("./name_of_file") gives me error that "bash: ./bcs: No such file or directory" What's that?? (I was trying to run file with name bcs)
[02:32] <Linux_Galore> Blast_Hardcheese: ie  linux-headers-2.6.17-etc
[02:33] <Blast_Hardcheese> Linux_Galore: Right, I got the one that matched up with my kernel,
[02:33] <Blast_Hardcheese> but the NVIDIA drivers are still complaining about the path
[02:33] <unimatrix9> where can i find high qualtity mpegs / theora video's that explain about and introduce ubuntu?
[02:33] <propan0> Linux_Galore: do you think from looking at my aadebug results here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14557/ that I would be better off reinstalling dapper?
[02:33] <Blast_Hardcheese> It can't find version.h
[02:34] <propan0> im going desperate, and I miss my ubuntu :S
[02:34] <Paddy_EIRE> is there a channel dealing with networking ubuntu laptop (64 bit) windows xp /opensuse athlonxp pc and laptop vista 64 bit
[02:34] <superatkin> normally .h files are provided by the dev version of that pacakge
[02:34] <superatkin> try installing that and see if it helps
[02:35] <Linux_Galore> propan0: is alsa installed ??
[02:35] <eexpress> hi, i want modify some key under tty. just like xmodmap done it. want esc -> f11....my esc key is bad now.
[02:35] <Blast_Hardcheese> Maybe I'm not stating exactly what the nvidia drivers need correctly; The NVidia drivers need the kernel source directories so it can build a new kernel with the nvidia drivers
[02:36] <propan0> hummi do have alsa-base package installed yest
[02:36] <propan0> if thats what u mean (sorry for noobiness)
[02:36] <unimatrix9> propan0 : did it work before?
[02:36] <propan0> i have a feeling i totaly messed up the install when troubleshooting it
[02:36] <propan0> yes it did work before unimatrix9
[02:37] <propan0> i think it stopped when i ran an upgrade or fiddling with beryl or both
[02:37] <unimatrix9> what where you doing to groubleshoot?

[02:43] <unimatrix9> should be easy eh?....
[02:43] <propan0> it worked perfectly upon fresh install
[02:43] <propan0> im wondering wether itll be easier just to reinstall ubuntu than to fix it
[02:43] <propan0> since sound issues are way out of my league
[02:43] <geggam> crap.... evidently ubuntu is the buzz
[02:44] <Pupeno_> Hello.
[02:44] <Blast_Hardcheese> Will linux-source-(version number) give me the kernel sources?

[02:44] <unimatrix9> propan0 , backup the important files...first
[02:44] <Jump86> Pupeno_, hey
[02:44] <unimatrix9> then reinstall , then you have got an clean system again
[02:44] <propan0> yeh... i didnt partition properly (my first ubuntu install).. have like 100gb of stuf to backup heh
[02:44] <propan0> propan0 == recipie for disaster!
[02:44] <propan0> lol
[02:45] <unimatrix9> then its not an option right?

[02:45] <geggam> Paddy_EIRE, look into the kwlan application
[02:45] <unimatrix9> sound blaster card sound not working
[02:45] <geggam> it is pretty simple to use
[02:46] <unimatrix9> propan0
[02:46] <Linux_Galore> propan0: should just work its supported, hmm, pretty rare to have a sb card problem
[02:46] <propan0> sound totaly not messedup Enverex|LT : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14557/
[02:46] <propan0> yeh i must have done something very wrong Linux_Galore
[02:47] <Enverex|LT> propan0, Tried reinstalling the kernel?
[02:47] <propan0> i quit trying to fix it like two months ago desperate... now i cant know what i did wrong so ... might as well reinstall
[02:47] <Linux_Galore> propan0: all my machine have sb or intel stuff and they work with just about every distro right of the mark
[02:47] <propan0> yeh
[02:47] <propan0> i can only work on 2.6.15-23-386, if i install newer kernel i get kernel panics
[02:47] <propan0> but thats ok i guess
[02:47] <propan0> i have the dapper cd
[02:48] <Linux_Galore> propan0: might want to try feisty
[02:48] <propan0> i did yesterday
[02:48] <propan0> same thing
[02:48] <Enverex|LT> propan0, Just reinstall the kernel, I didn't say update
[02:48] <propan0> it wont load from the live cd even
[02:48] <propan0> ok enverex (im new :S) how do i go about doing that?
[02:48] <Linux_Galore> propan0: ouch, not good, whats the motherboard
[02:48] <propan0> erm
[02:48] <propan0> is there a command to spit that out?
[02:49] <unimatrix9> propan0 , hold on , you say it works with life cd? or not?
[02:49] <propan0> god i need a linux for dummies
[02:49] <propan0> lol
[02:49] <unimatrix9> the sound that is...
[02:49] <propan0> it doesnt from live cd (newer kernel)
[02:49] <unimatrix9> older does?
[02:49] <propan0> it doesnt load, kerneel panic

[02:53] <propan0> i wish i knew wich one so i could report the dev
[02:53] <Boopop> anybody?
[02:53] <Linux_Galore> propan0: Intel actually add the driver code for the hardware to the kernel themselves heh
[02:53] <propan0> lol nice
[02:53] <propan0> k that rules that out lol
[02:54] <Linux_Galore> propan0: Intel are big supporters of open drivers in the kernel
[02:54] <propan0> good for them! (and us)
[02:54] <Linux_Galore> propan0: do you have any pci cards ?
[02:54] <propan0> yes gfx and soundcard i think

[02:57] <Linux_Galore> propan0: windows will throw the on-board sound out the door and default to the pci, Linux doesnt it tries to get both thus you end up with neither

[02:57] <tim167> how do i clear te cache in firefox so that it displays the most recent version of a html page ?

[03:12] <Linux_Galore> tbuss: actually  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:12] <joha> Wierd

[03:16] <Jump86> need help: I have a desktop running edgy and id like to use my wirelessly networked laptop to play movies off the desktop... I figured out how to share network drives w/ smb shares but it doesn't play movies across the network.. i can copy/paste em over to play but it won't stream in VLC, mplayer etc. I though of switching to NFS but when I do that, it no longer picks up the network map automatically.. i can share folders but
[03:16] <Jump86> I can't find them on the other computer
[03:16] <geggam> changing xxx to the IP of the gateway
[03:16] <propan0> unimatrix9 : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14567/ sudo modprobe snd-emu10k1  (card doesnt exist)
[03:17] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: yeah, cant stream with smb
[03:18] <morpheus74> Hello.  I want to re-install Ubuntu 6.06.  I erased my HD, and booted from the Ubuntu CD.  However, when I try to install, the screen size is so big that I cannot see the forward buttons.   Any ideas?
[03:18] <unimatrix9> hmm, i am at the end here, sorry...
[03:18] <propan0> looks pretty hopless doenst it
[03:18] <propan0> hehe
[03:18] <unimatrix9> propan0 ; try to backup some stuff.....
[03:18] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, do you know if this is a bug in fiesty too?
[03:18] <propan0> im gonna try switching cards slots and then if not yeh backup if possible and reinstall
[03:19] <unimatrix9> ok good luck
[03:19] <unimatrix9> :)
[03:19] <geggam> morpheus74, does ctrl + alt  and +/- on the number pad change it ?
[03:19] <propan0> thanks a lot everyone
[03:19] <propan0> <3 ubuntu comunity
[03:19] <SlimeyPete> morpheus74: yeah, that's a common problem. You can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to give yourself a bigger desktop which you can scroll around in (I forget what you add to the file but you should find it if you google a bit)
[03:20] <morpheus74> geggam, No, it does not change it.
[03:20] <SlimeyPete> morpheus74: or you can just use the laternate install cd instead
[03:20] <SlimeyPete> *alternate
[03:20] <my_haz> anyone have numpy running on dapper?

[03:20] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:20] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: you can use vlc as a streaming server
[03:21] <morpheus74> SlimeyPete, It's good to hear that this is a common problem.  For some reason I do not remember this being an issue on the previous install, but it must have been.
[03:21] <nox-Hand> Ihave a video device connected to composite on my TV card but capture programs use the Svideo port on my card. Where can Ichange this?
[03:21] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/streaming.html
[03:21] <geggam> someone has been working on that bot
[03:21] <geggam> alot
[03:21] <geggam> good job
[03:22] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: its called vls  as apposed to vlc
[03:22] <morpheus74> fundamentally, is Xubunt and Ubuntu the same, just different xwindows or guis?
[03:22] <SlimeyPete> morpheus74: yep. Same OS, different face.
[03:23] <Suurorca> I suppose nothing prevents using KXFEdubuntu... just install all the desktop packages ;p
[03:23] <jin_> :S I hate it when I closed a window with upload in progress :'(
[03:23] <jin_> any way to hide a window from the desktop?
[03:23] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, I figured I could do that, but I'd rather play start the movie from the laptop just by opening the file..
[03:23] <morpheus74> Ok, I think I'm going to download and try Xubuntu, my pc is a bit older and this may increase the performance.  What program is recommended in Ubuntu 6.10 (running on my newer machine) to burn the Xubuntu disc?
[03:23] <jin_> it maybe a good feature if firefox cab lock a tab
[03:24] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: I use ssh for doing that, saves me having to setup anything
[03:24] <jin_> can*
[03:24] <kbrooks> jin_: why?
[03:24] <SlimeyPete> morpheus74: cdrecord should do it, or whatever the gnome CD creator is called
[03:24] <jin_> because I used a tab while it was uploading a vid
[03:24] <jin_> now I have to reupload it :(
[03:24] <SlimeyPete> morpheus74: or kde if you don't mind installing the kde libs too
[03:24] <morpheus74> SlimeyPete, Thanks for the help!  :)
[03:24] <SlimeyPete> np.
[03:24] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: you can play a video file over ssh/X
[03:25] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: you just need openssh-server on one of the machines
[03:25] <tbuss> Linux_Galore: it did not work. The last option was color depth, I chose 24 and it put me back at the prompt, do I just restart or do I need to overwrite the existing xorg.conf somehow
[03:26] <Linux_Galore> tbuss: choose something lower you can change it later
[03:26] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, is that similar to remote desktop? the ssh/x thing is new to me.. does that basically mean it would stop the movie on the desktop using a terminal on the laptop?
[03:26] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, start* not stop
[03:27] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: some file managers can access ssh, it basically allows you to securely login to a remote machine, if you have an X session running on both ends you can stream video
[03:27] <MarkCh> i installed hundreds of fonts on my ubuntu, now can anyone recommend to me a good font browser? one that works like oo.word's drop-down font menu, only larger
[03:27] <tbuss> Linux_Galore: ok, what about after I choose the color depth, do I restart gdm or just restart the system
[03:27] <kbrooks> jin_: ping
[03:27] <kbrooks> jin_: are you there?
[03:27] <Linux_Galore> tbuss: just run startx
[03:27] <kbrooks> jin_: i lookede arond for u
[03:28] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, where I go to learn more about how to setup something like that? just google for ssh basically?
[03:28] <kbrooks> jin_: search tab mix plus in addons
[03:28] <tman_ubuntu> good morning and happy easter.
[03:28] <hagger> hi all
[03:29] <jin_> kbrooks, brb, on the phone
[03:29] <unimatrix9> Markc open nautilus and type fonts:///
[03:29] <tman_ubuntu> have a profiles question.
[03:29] <kbrooks> jin_: i installed it too :-)
[03:29] <jin_> thx
[03:30] <geggam> Jump86,  look into ssh and x forwarding
[03:30] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: yeah, setting it up is really simple, you just install  openssh-server on one machine  ie  sudo apt-get install openssh-server   and make sure the client is installed on the other machine/s  sudo apt-get install openssh  and thats it,  you can access it from some file managers with  a command like ftps://ip_of_machine   then login
[03:30] <kbrooks> jin_: let me test the lock tab feature..
[03:31] <Linux_Galore> Jump86:   oops  sftp://ip_of_machine
[03:31] <tman_ubuntu> how do i tell ubuntu to use a previous profile on a different partition (/home) when doing a clean install??
[03:31] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, thanks
[03:31] <unimatrix9> are there any promotional ubuntu video files on the web ? dvd like quality...
[03:31] <Jump86> geggam, thanks
[03:31] <atomiku> Why does XORG have to take up so much swap?
[03:31] <jin_> kbrooks, tell me if it works or not
[03:32] <jin_> I can't restart my ffox, I'm still uploading
[03:32] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: of login from the command line with  ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:32] <r00tintheb0x> atomiku, thats just the way linux works.
[03:32] <atomiku> hmm
[03:32] <unimatrix9> atomiku : use shell only ?
[03:32] <unimatrix9> :P
[03:32] <foutrelis> Linux_Galore: That sftp://.. Nice one.. :P
[03:32] <atomiku> Even after ive closed all my windows and stuff
[03:32] <atomiku> I'm just gonna kill dash nine it
[03:32] <atomiku> hahahahaha that'll teach it for taking up so much memoron!
[03:32] <WaxyFresh> how do i saee how much free disk space i have?
[03:32] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: ummm if /home is a separate partition, just install the new root and tell the installer to use /home as the /home
[03:32] <geggam> df  -h
[03:33] <Linux_Galore> I know konqueror  supports  sftp://ip_number  for an ssh session not sure about the gnome file manager
[03:33] <kbrooks> jin_; define "protect tab" please?
[03:33] <foutrelis> Linux_Galore: Nautilus works too ;)
[03:33] <WaxyFresh> atomiku: theres a rap song called kill -9
[03:33] <unimatrix9> zbrown and /swap
[03:33] <tman_ubuntu> zbrown: ok.  so when ubuntu asks me to enter a user name and password for the new user, what to do?
[03:33] <zbrown> unimatrix9: well if it detects swap it'll do that automatically
[03:33] <jin_> kbrooks, lock the address bar for that tab
[03:33] <geggam> amazes me to see this level of questions ... whatever happened to how do i run an exe ?
[03:34] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: enter the same info as before
[03:34] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: well password can be diff, but the key thing is the user
[03:34] <geggam> no one here has seen dependency hell ... i think u guys need that just to appreciate things
[03:34] <unimatrix9> bye all, going to decode an avi to mpeg...
[03:34] <unimatrix9> :)
[03:34] <kbrooks> jin_: aha
[03:34] <WaxyFresh> geggam: everytime the power goes off ubuntu stops working all of a sudded,any ideas?oh yea and how do i run an exe?jk
[03:34] <Linux_Galore> geggam: last time I had a dep hell issue it was because of a third party repo
[03:34] <Enverex|LT> Is there any way I can add files to an ISO?
[03:35] <geggam> wine foo.exe >:]  WaxyFresh
[03:35] <tman_ubuntu> zbrown:  thanks.  so it will map the new user profile to the previous one with the same username (just to be clear :-/)?
[03:35] <kbrooks> jin_: doesn't work  that way. finding out what tab locking does...
[03:35] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: ya
[03:36] <Linux_Galore> if you have wine setup in the file manager properly as soon as you click on the exe it will run it under wine
[03:36] <MarkCh>  i installed hundreds of fonts on my ubuntu, now can anyone recommend to me a good font browser? one that works like oo.word's drop-down font menu, only larger
[03:36] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: as long as you use the same username though
[03:36] <geggam> click ?
[03:36] <geggam> guis are evil
[03:36] <geggam> da debbil i say
[03:36] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: so if thee last username was 'tacobob' and the /home dir says /home/tacobob then you need to use username 'tacobob'
[03:36] <tman_ubuntu> zbrown:  alright then.  thanks for your help.
[03:36] <atomiku> WaxyFresh: yeah
[03:36] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: anytime
[03:36] <atomiku> KILL DASH NINE NO MORE CPU TIME!
[03:36] <geggam> kill -9 1
[03:36] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: fyi, this works on any linux distro, should that ever be an issue in the future ;)
[03:37] <zbrown> geggam: that could be fun ;)
[03:37] <kbrooks> jin_: turns out it works, but you have to go to tab mix plus prefs then menus and then  check freeze tab in the tab context menu
[03:37] <atomiku> okay
[03:37] <geggam> doesnt work zbrown
[03:37] <atomiku> Im gonna kill -9 Xorg
[03:37] <tbuss> Linux_Galore: could you take a look please http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14570/
[03:37] <geggam> ive tried
[03:37] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, ok i got the openssh sever installed and figured out how to connect to ssh in nautilus.. but its saying connection denied.. you mentioned install openssh for the client.. but sudo apt-get install openssh doesnt exist.. tried openssh-client i already had it
[03:37] <zbrown> geggam: even as root?
[03:37] <MarkCh> geggam: kill -9 gdm instead
[03:37] <MarkCh> don't forget to sudo su first though.
[03:37] <geggam> yeah... the kernel is picky about killing itself
[03:37] <kbrooks> jin_: why the other two lock/protect tabs are in the tab context menu AND checked by default is a mystry to me
[03:38] <tman_ubuntu> zbrown:  i've been doing it the hard way i suppose.  I've been copying everything over once the clean install was up. figured there had to be an easier way.:-[
[03:38] <zbrown> tman_ubuntu: nope, thats the beauty of multiple partitions
[03:38] <WaxyFresh> how do i see how much free disk space i have?
[03:38] <zbrown> assuming you keep the same username, the system will recognize the previous home dir
[03:38] <Linux_Galore> tbuss: edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf  file change Driver nvidia   line to Driver  nv
[03:38] <tman_ubuntu> thanks again. bye.
[03:38] <zbrown> WaxyFresh: df -h
[03:38] <geggam> WaxyFresh, df -h
[03:38] <geggam> command line
[03:38] <geggam> jinx !
[03:39] <velko> zbrown: the user name is irrelevant. only the UID counts
[03:39] <niles> hi
[03:39] <WaxyFresh> thanks guys
[03:39] <niles> any kaffeine users got angles to work?
[03:40] <zbrown> velko: well ya but i'm talking on a simple basis
[03:40] <WaxyFresh> is therea transparent terminal for xubuntu?
[03:40] <niles> i have a movie with multiple angles but i cant seem to use an of them other than angle 1
[03:40] <velko> zbrown: ok :-)
[03:40] <zbrown> from release to release, you just tell it to use the username
[03:40] <tbuss> Linux_Galore: when I reconfigured I selected nv, is this different
[03:40] <kbrooks> jin_: note: when u freeze a tab, u cant close it
[03:40] <Linux_Galore> tbuss: nv is the built in nvidia driver
[03:40] <zbrown> velko: the only time you have an issue with the UID is when you want to go from distro to distro and if the distros change their 'beginning UID' scheme
[03:40] <Angrypenguin> enverex: i believe you can just open the iso, add files, then reburn the iso
[03:41] <mrmonday> in edgy does anyone know how to get webcams to work?
[03:41] <atomiku> So I kill -9'd Xorg
[03:41] <mrmonday> it only works in black and white
[03:41] <atomiku> yeah everything restarted but thats okay... 111mb used and 68mb on swap
[03:41] <atomiku> why cant it stay like this
[03:41] <Angrypenguin> webcams
[03:41] <Linux_Galore> !webcam

[03:42] <geggam> because linux likes to put stuff in swap
[03:42] <WaxyFresh> !dist
[03:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dist - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:42] <atomiku> format swap :@
[03:42] <atomiku> lol
[03:42] <tommus> !kiba
[03:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:42] <MarkCh> !distro
[03:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about distro - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:42] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, nevermind it works now, thanks again
[03:42] <geggam> its just a memory management scheme atomiku
[03:42] <atomiku> I guess
[03:42] <atomiku> But it looks like some stuff isnt getting wiped off
[03:42] <geggam> if u have enuff ram u can kill all swap and things run faster
[03:42] <atomiku> yeah
[03:42] <geggam> but if u run out of ram then things sort of lock up
[03:42] <geggam> >:]
[03:42] <atomiku> i have 600mb of rammage
[03:42] <tommus> anyone with a repository for Kiba-dock amd64? I cant find it, i've looked for an hour now.
[03:43] <MarkCh> geggam: how do yyou do that?
[03:43] <Angrypenguin> atomiku: how much ram do you have?
[03:43] <atomiku> 600mb of rammage
[03:43] <MarkCh> i have 1GB of RAM, and I dont like ubuntu swapping things up
[03:43] <atomiku> everything is okay now though
[03:43] <atomiku> i just restarted everything
[03:43] <greig_> how di i make my other partitions read and write?
[03:43] <Angrypenguin> chmod
[03:43] <geggam> MarkCh,  i would look into swapon ... i dont have ubunto installed as of right now... im burning it
[03:43] <tommus> anyone with a repository for Kiba-dock amd64? I cant find it, i've looked for an hour now.
[03:43] <Angrypenguin> chmod 755 i believe
[03:43] <geggam> ill tell u in an hour or so

[03:44] <elro> Hi there, I've trying to rescue the stuff off of a friends broken windows laptop. I can only get ubuntu (7.04b) to boot in single user mode on it. Is there any way to mount an external usb harddrive?
[03:44] <Angrypenguin> 755 is read write execute
[03:44] <tbuss> Linux_Galore: i looked in the xorg.conf, nv is already there for Driver
[03:44] <zbrown> heh kvm is sweeeet
[03:44] <geggam> elro,  download knoppix
[03:44] <velko> elro: does the usb hdd show up in dmesg?
[03:45] <Angrypenguin> or you can use automatix to  install the root nautilus scripts greig
[03:45] <MarkCh> geggam: uh... never mind, i just checked gnome-system-monitor and it told me it is using 1% (264kb) out of my 256Mb swap drive... cool.
[03:45] <Linux_Galore> tommus: http://www.silksoul.com/edgy/kiba-dock_0.1cvs20061110matt-1_i386.deb
[03:45] <Angrypenguin> how do use the comment function
[03:45] <Angrypenguin> in xchat
[03:45] <geggam> MarkCh,  if you are interested in a server OS with a different memory scheme look into freebsd
[03:45] <tommus> Linux_Galore: I thank you!
[03:45] <WaxyFresh> velko: how do i check dmsg to see if my usb is listed im haveing the same problem
[03:45] <geggam> desktops are bettet with a linux
[03:45] <greig_> Angrypenguin the partitions show just cant write to them, ps im new to linux
[03:45] <geggam> better
[03:46] <velko> WaxyFresh: dmesg | grep -i usb
[03:46] <Navop> Is thier a differnce between the server 6.10 and 6.06 lts?
[03:46] <Angrypenguin> greig who owns them
[03:46] <EdgEy> 6.06 is 6.06, 6.10 isnt
[03:46] <EdgEy> lol..
[03:46] <WaxyFresh> Navop: about .04
[03:46] <Navop> lol
[03:46] <tbuss> Linux_Galore: I'm new to linix, what would cause me to loose this window environment,  I haven't made any changes. I just restarted my system and it was gone
[03:46] <greig_> Angrypenguin 2 are ntfs
[03:46] <greig_> Angrypenguin 1 ext3
[03:47] <WaxyFresh> Navop: im sure thre is but if you dont nkow why you should upgrade its gfenerally not a good idea
[03:47] <Angrypenguin> are they mounted
[03:47] <MarkCh> tbuss: you loose what window environment?
[03:47] <greig_> Angrypenguin yes
[03:47] <Angrypenguin> ok
[03:47] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, I can view all the folders on the other computer using SSH but it has the same streaming problem that SMB had. It plays the file if I copy it over but if I open with vlc or mplayer, it just stalls
[03:47] <Navop> no seriously, what is the difference, not sure which one to d/l
[03:47] <geggam> Jump86,  configure the movieplayer to have a larger buffer
[03:47] <elro> velko: no sign of the usb hdd in dmesg, only the mouse
[03:48] <tbuss> Linux_Galore: I might have the terminology wrong, I thought the x server was what window environments ran under
[03:48] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: you dont open it in mplayer "locally" obvioulsy you open it in mplayer on the remote machine
[03:48] <Angrypenguin> the easiest way i can think of is open up a terminal
[03:48] <StevenBoscarine> Question:  I'm a Java programmer (and a good one) and want to contribute to Ubuntu.  Does anyone know where's a good place to start?  (I don't know C or python)
[03:48] <greig_> Angrypenguin yea?
[03:48] <Angrypenguin> type: mount
[03:48] <velko> elro: does "egrep sd /var/log/messages" show anything relevant?
[03:48] <brain> www.xclusivos.net
[03:49] <greig_> Angrypenguin k
[03:49] <Enverex|LT> StevenBoscarine, I highly doubt any part of Ubuntu would be coded in Wine, it'd be a horrible way to do things, heh, I'd check the forums though
[03:49] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: try  ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>etc  then  cd /path/to/file   then  mplayer filename.avi
[03:49] <Angrypenguin> find the partition you want to change ownership
[03:49] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, using commandline? is not possible to use nautilus? it mounted the other pc via SSH so i can view all the files etc
[03:49] <greig_> Angrypenguin ok
[03:49] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: nautilus will try use the local client to play the file
[03:49] <geggam> well ... off to see what the ubuntu buzz is all about...
[03:49] <TazDevil> Good Morning and Happy Easter everyone
[03:49] <geggam> later
[03:50] <Angrypenguin> does it say (rw) beside it?
[03:50] <Jump86> Linux_Galore, ok gotcha, thanks again
[03:50] <greig_> Angrypenguin yes all 3 i want do
[03:50] <MarkCh> StevenBoscarine: try downloading MonoDevelop. it's very similar to NetBeans to some extent, and it gives you a GUI to help you create your applications. also there are many things need fixing in ubuntu, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs though that may get you to learn new languages
[03:50] <Angrypenguin> but you cant read/write?
[03:50] <Angrypenguin> hmmm
[03:51] <Linux_Galore> Jump86: you can always  shh into the other machine then run nautilus from the command line, it should run nautilus from the remote machine thus making it run all the apps on the remote
[03:51] <greig_> only read
[03:51] <Angrypenguin> ohhhh
[03:51] <Angrypenguin> ntfs is read only
[03:51] <Linux_Galore> ssh*
[03:51] <Angrypenguin> sorry
[03:51] <Angrypenguin> ext3 though
[03:51] <StevenBoscarine> Enverex|LT, wine?  I thought that was a windows emulator.  I didn't find any refernce to java on their site.
[03:51] <Angrypenguin> we should be able to do something with that
[03:51] <arejay> !ntfs-3g
