[02:35] <ubotu> mascaria: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)
[02:35] <jrib> mascaria: install bitchx using your favorite package manager.  Don't bother compiling
[02:35] <nickrud> Ximal: don't close the terminal :)
[02:35] <FYI> profx: I just tried restarting in recovery mode; this is the last line that appears "TIMER: vector-0x31 apic1-0 pin1=2 apic2=-1 pin2=-2
[02:35] <Blinkiz> aticonfig can enable external screens directly. Does it exist a similar tool from nvidia maybe?
[02:35] <jrib> h1st0: no (as ubotu said)
[02:35] <h1st0> jrib: I did notice that when the package is installing its not prompting for the license agreement like it used to.
[02:36] <h1st0> h1st0: ?
[02:36] <h1st0> jrib: ?
[02:36] <Ximal> haha it won't let me..
[02:36] <chrols> Blinkiz: Well if you wish to have it more dynamic the nvidia utility "nvidia-settings" can usually change these things without a restart though it's not as straightforward
[02:36] <jrib> h1st0: read the forum link ubotu said earlier
[02:36] <mascaria> ok thanks!
[02:36] <FYI> profx: TTY? without trying to boot gnome or whatever?
[02:36] <profx> Pirate_Hunter, im in Ubuntu atm, running gparted, it seen the part., where as PM didnt in win., and its prompted me to 'disklabel', with a list of selections
[02:36] <Blinkiz> chrols: Thanks, I try that :)
[02:36] <jrib> !flash > h1st0 (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:37] <FYI> !tty > FYI
[02:37] <Anderson> does anyone know where to get the .bin roms for mame?
[02:37] <Whatsinaname> Blinkiz I get /dev/mapper/md0/ does not exist and is not a 'standard' name so it cant be created
[02:37] <profx> FYI, yeah, ctrl-alt-f1, will open a tty, click ctrl-alt-f7 to switch back, and that will open a shell, and no Gnome :)
[02:38] <chrols> Blinkiz: If you have the driver packages installed you could start it with ALT-F2 "gksudo nvidia-settings" or just type that in a terminal as I don't think you have it in the menus as standard
[02:38] <FYI> profx: it says BIOS BUG #81 found
[02:38] <FYI> !BIOS BUG 81 > FYI
[02:38] <Blinkiz> chrols: Yeah, have a nice gui open here from nvidia. Exploring it :(
[02:38] <profx> msdos, amiga, bsd, dvh, gpt, mac, pc98
[02:38] <Blinkiz> Oh, I mean :)
[02:38] <profx> nice FYI
[02:38] <toresn_> could someone check if my ssh-connection is OK? (toresn.dyndns.org)
[02:38] <profx> msdos, amiga, bsd, dvh, gpt, mac, pc98, s390, sun, loop
[02:39] <profx> thats my choices Pirate_Hunter
[02:39] <FYI> it's said the before, though
[02:39] <profx> afk
[02:39] <Pirate_Hunter> profx: ill tell you right now what i understood you in ubuntu using gparted, it sees your partition which PM (have no clue what that is) did and you went to disklabel menu and now it is giving you options... all i can say if youre using gparted to change disklabe it will erase all data on disk as well (unless theyve changed their system from the live CD)
[02:39] <Blinkiz> Whatsinaname: Okay, w8 and I check how I mount things
[02:39] <Blinkiz> !raid
[02:39] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[02:39] <Whatsinaname> Many thanks Blinkiz I cant wait to get my hands on samba next lol!
[02:39] <chrols> Is anyone here familiar with how to deal with XFS? I have a problem of sorts
[02:39] <FYI> profx: it's stuck on loading hardware drivers
[02:40] <javatexan> can you boost signal on digital audio out?
[02:41] <kousotu> truna: Tee gave me 3 lines of output
[02:41] <kousotu> Can't find file /home/kousotu/.secondlife/logs/stack_trace.log
[02:41] <kousotu> Can't find file
[02:41] <kousotu> Can't find file /home/kousotu/.secondlife/logs/stack_trace.l
[02:41] <kousotu> and it keeps doing that
[02:42] <truna> kousotu-> tell me the exact command line when you executed tee
[02:42] <Blinkiz> Whatsinaname: I think this is a great guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=408461 . The manual part of the howto is probably what you are looking for. But at the top is a great description on each step you have to do
[02:42] <FYI> profx: googled my computer model number and it said to try booting with acpi=off on the kernel line; I am trying that now
[02:42] <javatexan> any mencoders here tonight?
[02:42] <Pirate_Hunter> is there a way someone can automate the channel bot to teach ppl how to ask questions that are straight to the point and explains what they plan to achieve, since morning i've been having this problem
[02:42] <kousotu> truna: kousotu@laptop-1:~$ ./secondlife | tee -a ~/slout
[02:42] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter: nah, that needs the human touch
[02:42] <truna> kousotu-> does your secondlife normally outputs to a stdout?
[02:42] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: heh, just take a break when it starts getting to you :)
[02:43] <Whatsinaname> awesome thanks Blinkiz  Ill check it out
[02:43] <FYI> So, I booted with acpi=off and now it's replaying th elogin noise over and over
[02:43] <Whatsinaname> afk for some reading lol
[02:43] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: i did take a break and now im back still much hasnt changed
[02:43] <ZarakiSan> Question: I have seen some of those nice-looking docks, in the styl eof Mac Os X. Can you name some of those docks?
[02:43] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: tru but humans tend not to think unless they need to
[02:43] <kousotu> truna: Remember, I said I was trying to capture from terminal?
[02:43] <kebinusan> ZarakiSan: kiba-dock
[02:43] <javatexan> Pirate_Hunter: i have one for you I need to make mencoder not try to scale a 480x480 to a 4:3, is there a way to tell mencoder that I am okay with whatever resolution it is in?
[02:44] <truna> kousotu-> does your secondlife normally outputs to a stdout?  answer this
[02:44] <ZarakiSan> kebinusam - will check
[02:44] <kirk> does ubuntu have something that is equivalent to a folder alias?  I want my pictures folder to have an alias that points to another user's pictures folder.
[02:44] <kousotu> truna: I do not know
[02:44] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter: gotta remember, a lot of people here don't know enough yet to ask pertinent questions, you have to lead them to the water
[02:44] <Pirate_Hunter> javatexan: i dont edit video but ill check for you
[02:44] <truna> kousotu-> then make sure you understand where secondlife outputs, and man tee again please
[02:45] <javatexan> Pirate_Hunter: I have been googling until my eyes are googled out on this...that would be awesome if I could fix that today
[02:45] <runjun> could i possibly get some help on setting up my usb belkin wifi adapter?
[02:45] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: I try but some times as you read the question you realise they dont need to do what they want to do and will cause them truoble but how do you explain that without offending them
[02:45] <bastid_raZor> kirk:: something like symlink .. ln -s name place_to_be_linked
[02:45] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter: but if they won't drink, that's not your problem
[02:45] <orangePnut> PM ME if you can help me set up a dial-up connection on Ubuntu
[02:46] <Byan> what if we can, but don't want to
[02:46] <kousotu> truna: friend running linux for 3 years said to do this: 01/12 17:42]  Ninane Yoshikawa: start sl with ./secondlife > ~/sloutput and all the output will be written in the file sloutput
[02:46] <ezeki3l> hi
[02:46] <Byan> orangePnut: google is your friend
[02:46] <Byan> and so is wvdial
[02:46] <kousotu> truna: it produces the same 3 lines
[02:46] <B2ASpirit> what is another way to get flashplugin-nonfree the repository version says the md5sum doesn't match so it won't install
[02:46] <ezeki3l> can anyone tell me how to modify the file which lists Ubuntu updates?
[02:47] <jrib> !flash > b2aspirit (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:47] <kitche> B2ASpirit: from adobe or /msg ubotu flash
[02:47] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter: difficult sometimes, but when you see them get the clue, and start understanding much because you showed them... Well, that's why I keep coming back
[02:48] <runjun> better yet, how do i use ndiswrapper to use the windows driver
[02:48] <bastid_raZor> ezeki3l:: /etc/apt/sources.list is the file you need
[02:48] <B2ASpirit> domo arigato
[02:48] <Pirate_Hunter> javatexan: check this link they seem to have useful features but dont know if what you need is there http://www.linux.com/feature/121385
[02:48] <ZarakiSan> !svn
[02:48] <ubotu> svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/
[02:48] <kirk> bastid_raZor,  it says permission denied.
[02:48] <B2ASpirit> so just have to wait and see it out in other words

[02:50] <aram> hi i have just run dhcp server on ubuntu ,want to know how can i find the list of ip that dhcp server has assigned to client?

[02:51] <gnutron> sorry
[02:51] <bastid_raZor> kirk:: you could use sudo to make the connection then add yourself as a group
[02:51] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter: that's when I take jrib's advice
[02:51] <Blinkiz> okay, one vote for xchat then
[02:51] <jlulian38_> How do you choose what version of java you're using?
[02:51] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: tru that will rest soon nearly 3 in the morning and what advice is that?
[02:52] <kirk> bastid_raZor, I can open the picture files.
 Pirate_Hunter: heh, just take a break when it starts getting to you :)
[02:52] <B2ASpirit> Blinkiz, to get xchat get the most recent source from www.xchat.org, then sudo apt-get build-dep xchat

[02:54] <aram> does any one know why dhcp assign ip from last i mean if range is <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> the first ip it would assign to client is <IP_ADDRESS> and 2nd =19 and so on ?why?
[02:55] <Darkmystere> Well can some 1 point me to a Guide On Ubuntu fourms for Installing and Patching madwifi driver

[02:55] <nickrud> !hdaintel > drgonzo00000 (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:56] <TooDamFas1> any miro experts here?
[02:56] <dark__> aram usually ip's start from the end if youre using a USB connection i dunno why it would happen otherwise
[02:56] <bazhang> Darkmystere: which card
[02:56] <FYI> profx: for future reference, I had to install the propietary drivers/firmware
[02:56] <dark__> toresn i can help you for a minute if you like
[02:56] <bazhang> TooDamFas1: what is the question
[02:56] <FYI> profx: to get it to boot
[02:56] <Darkmystere> bazhang: Atheros AR5006EG
[02:57] <aram>  i mean why it assign the ip which is last one of the range to the first client that request ip i.e if range is <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> the first ip it assign is <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:57] <rencore_> how can i remove firefox3 after installing using this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-firefox-3-beta-2-in-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon.html
[02:57] <aram> no i am using server and not usb connection
[02:57] <Darkmystere> bazhang: Or is there a way to make  or get a .deb Packadge and install it via Synaptics
[02:57] <TooDamFas1> gusty with compiz  on intel 965  (had to bypass blacklist), able to get all video players  but miro to work by changing output to x11

[02:58] <TooDamFas1> does miro use xine for output?
[02:58] <Takamatsu> Hey guys, this is got to be the 1st operating system with a SOFT DRINK. Windows and Apple should have their own too, (though apple's should be same-flavor-cider-soda).
[02:58] <craigbass1976> This rather blows... I get an error on boot telling me to manually fsck, but can't seem to do it from the box itself, so I boot up to an ubuntu cd to do it, and get errors with the hard drive and can't boot anyway.  Is this normal?  I'm currently downloading DSL to see if that boots any better.
[02:58] <Takamatsu> See your ubuntu drink: http://alaingonza.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/ubuntucola.jpg
[02:59] <bazhang> http://elkpi.blogspot.com/2007_12_02_archive.html Darkmystere this may help
[02:59] <jfletcher> anyone had it where flashplugin just crashes, and the whole system freezes?
[02:59] <Darkmystere> bazhang: Thanks Abundle =)
[02:59] <Takamatsu> So, have you ever had Ubuntu cola?
[02:59] <Darkmystere> i think anyways its loading lol
[02:59] <jfletcher> nothing in dmesg and no evidence of segfault
[02:59] <truna> craigbass1976-> liveCD you can not boot from?
[02:59] <FYI> Help! Now ethernet isn't working
[02:59] <Takamatsu> I'm not kidding. Ubuntu really has its own soft DRINK: http://alaingonza.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/ubuntucola.jpg
[02:59] <dark__> aram i see what youre saying, if there are any controls for your DHCP server they would be worth looking at
[03:00] <kevogod> What kind of success are people having with the latest alpha release?
[03:00] <Takamatsu> !etiquette
[03:00] <ubotu> Unsure how you should behave on this channel? See (in a private message with the bot, /msg ubotu <keyword>): !AskTheBot, !CoC, !Guidelines, !Offtopic, !Language, !Attitude, !Repeat, !Enter, !Paste, !NickSpam - and most importantly, use common sense...
[03:00] <dark__> aram is the server on your rotuer then?
[03:00] <aram> dark__: where can i find controls for my dhcp
[03:00] <craigbass1976> truna, nope.  I have a Xubuntu disc that I just installed another box with a couple days ago (so I know it's a good disc) and I'm getting errors.  Can't remember what they were, but itwas related to the corrupted filesystem somehow.
[03:00] <robdig> kevogod: try asking on #ubuntu+1
[03:01] <Darkmystere> Err that didnt help lol It had to do with Graphics >.>
[03:01] <truna> craigbass1976-> you wanting to boot to a liveCD?
[03:01] <dark__> aram it will depend on your setup, if using a router you'll type its address in firefox or whatever , log in and look for the settings
[03:01] <craigbass1976> truna, I was hoping, then run fsck from that.
[03:01] <Darkmystere> Im using wireless now my card is Automaticly Funtional from  a fresh install..
[03:01] <TooDamFas1> if Im able to watch a video in xine (had to switch video driver in xine to xshm from Xv
[03:02] <truna> craigbass1976-> then get a liveCD and boot from it, make sure its a liveCD, from any linux distro is okay
[03:02] <TooDamFas1> but miro still crashes with compiz on
[03:02] <drgonzo00000> can someone tell me why the new drivers for my card aren't installing correctly http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/51741/
[03:02] <aram> dark__: dhcp server is my ubuntu and there is no router or ... at all
[03:02] <drgonzo00000> my sound card
[03:02] <le> Strange problem:  Just installed on a new eMachine, AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 4000+ with a gig of RAM and after installing compiz and mplayer and a few other multimedia apps, I installe ssh and tried to scp an mp3 to another machine; It locks up dead.  I did a hard reset and tried to scp a .wmv file and same thing again, locks up hard.  Wonder what's casuing it?  How can I find a clue as to what's wrong?
[03:02] <truna> arma what is the issue?
[03:02] <le> I couldn't even ssh into it.
[03:02] <craigbass1976> truna, DSL.  Just downloaded it, now just have to burn it to disc.
[03:03] <bazhang> TooDamFas1: did you try disabling compiz? same results?
[03:03] <TooDamFas1> nope, works fine
[03:03] <alecwh> Whenever I want to play a .swf (flash video file), I have to open it in Firefox. Is it possible to view a .swf on my desktop, by just double clicking it?
[03:03] <FYI> anyone help me figure out why when I stick my ethernet cord in the port, I still get no internet?>
[03:03] <toresn> dark__, host is toresn.dyndns.org
[03:03] <TooDamFas1> like I said my gpu is blacklisted for compiz
[03:03] <dark__> aram oky .. so the dhcp server is running on ubuntu.. there must be some setting for it somewhere.. i dont know off hand but ill have a quick look
[03:03] <TooDamFas1> due to video bug.
[03:03] <drgonzo00000> FYI: Have you tried resetting your modem?
[03:03] <alecwh> Is there a stand-alone program that will play (.swf) flash movie files (rephrase)?
[03:03] <truna> FYI-> can you elaborate on your network setup? do you see LED flashing or green on your adapter?
[03:04] <dark__> toresn seems to be working oky
[03:04] <jtt> le you need to search launchpad
[03:04] <aram> ok thanks
[03:04] <TooDamFas1> so far I make vlc, mplayer, movie player and xine all work WITH compiz on.  last thing on my list is miro
[03:04] <TooDamFas1> I thought miro used xine for video playback
[03:05] <FYI> drgonzo, truna: I have a only LEDS for my wireless (disabled orange color), but I have my ethernet cord in and it's not working... It worked before. I have roaming enabled
[03:05] <aram> the configuration is on /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf

[03:05] <B2ASpirit> thanks whoever pmed me with the bot about flash :)
[03:06] <FYI> truna, sorry. the cord goes from my laptop to my router. router to modem, modem to phone company :P
[03:06] <dark__> aram yes i just got that far.. i havent got it installed myself
[03:06] <jtt> le search bugs.launchpad.net  do advanced search
[03:06] <truna> FYI okay, what about the wireless thing you mentioned? for another pc?
[03:06] <le> Display adapter is an onboard Nvidia  GeForce 6100
[03:06] <aram> dark__: ok thanks any way
[03:07] <FYI> truna: I would actually like to get wireless working on this laptop, but that's for another day. I want to get the wired network working first
[03:07] <FYI> !ethernet problems
[03:07] <lewix> how can I watch videos on youtube proprely
[03:07] <dark__> aram no probs.. its not something ive thought about before.. if i find anything over the next 5 mins ill let you know :)
[03:07] <lewix> it always end up bugging
[03:07] <fiXXXerMet> I downloaded a movie and it's split into two 700MB files......  How can I combine that into one file and burn it into a DVD so that I can play it in a DVD player?
[03:07] <arooni> can someone please hlep me getting my microphone working with gutsy and my sound blaster live card?  whenever i try testing (alsa) in sound preferences i see: Failed to construct test pipeline for 'gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat' ...... any ideas?
[03:07] <lewix> it just pauses the video while it continues loading
[03:08] <truna> FYI okay, are you using a dhcp server to dole out ip address to your nic card or you have it configured for static ip address?
[03:08] <jrlenz> anyone know of a way to get an older version of wine on ubuntu ?
[03:08] <aram> dark__: thank a lot
[03:08] <FYI> truna: my router has DHCP setup, but traditionally the local IP for this laptop is <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:08] <jrlenz> since photoshop doesn't really seem to work on the current version.
[03:08] <Chris55> I setup Ubuntu 7.1 on a server and SSH isnt working (its a fresh install) anyone have any ideas on fixing this?
[03:08] <FYI> that's what DCHP usually assigns
[03:09] <th0r> jrlenz you might be able to retrieve an older version from sourceforge.net, but it would require compiling
[03:09] <truna> FYI but what is assigned now if any?
[03:09] <kitche> Chris55: insall openssh-server
[03:09] <aram> dark__: i have to go thanks again and night
[03:09] <Chris55> kitche: whats the command? :0
[03:09] <dark__> aram oky all the best
[03:09] <jrlenz> well, the issue i'm having is that photoshop won't find a default system font
[03:09] <jrlenz> so i can't insert text into any images
[03:10] <B2ASpirit> temporarily use gimp
[03:10] <B2ASpirit> ???
[03:10] <kitche> Chris55: sudo apt-get install open-server
[03:10] <jrlenz> B2ASpirit: if gimp could do what i wanted photoshop for, i'd be using it.

[03:13] <truna> FYI ifconfig
[03:13] <mattholimeau> Kamus_H_Zwisch: i'm a noob - where is the kernel list of grub?
[03:13] <FYI> truna: oh, I tried that. there is no IP for it
[03:14] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> mattholimeau: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:14] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> in your kernel section
[03:14] <Anderson> wwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
[03:14] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> at the line kernel

[03:14] <mattholimeau> nice, thanks
[03:14] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> in the end add vga=791
[03:14] <truna> FYI, umm are you reading any kind of tutorial or books on ubuntu linux?
[03:14] <fiXXXerMet> I downloaded a movie and it's split into two 700MB files......  How can I combine that into one file and burn it into a DVD so that I can play it in a DVD player?
[03:14] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> how to eject a second cd tray and show the "eject image"
[03:14] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> splited with?
[03:15] <FYI> truna: no... I already have some knowledge. I've just never had trouble with plugging in my ethernet cord
[03:15] <truna> Kamus_H_Zwisch-> even a single cd tray, does it even show an eject image?
[03:15] <JohnMM> fiXXXerMet, cat file1 file2 > combinedfile
[03:15] <lrajlich> I installed feisty on one of my server and when it came to installing the kernel, I selected the kernel to install, I selected linux-image-2.6.20-16-server - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.20 on x86/x86_64
[03:15] <rencore_> how can i remove firefox3 after installing using this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-firefox-3-beta-2-in-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon.html
[03:15] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> truna: i configured the first cd tray in the "keyboard shortcuts"
[03:15] <lrajlich> and wound up with a 32 bit kernel on the server
[03:15] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> the first show the image
[03:15] <ubuntu_> how do i edi xorg
[03:15] <truna> FYI, once you get to nm, what does your interface properties look like?
[03:15] <fiXXXerMet> JohnMM: That easy - are you sure?
[03:15] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> but the second i configured in gconf-editor
[03:16] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> and does not show the image
[03:16] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> :(
[03:16] <JohnMM> fiXXXerMet, yep
[03:16] <Whatsinaname> ok hmm  array is assembled, but still cant mount.  To mount /etc/md0  what would be the exact command be?
[03:16] <fiXXXerMet> JohnMM: They're .avi files.  Can I use something like K3b to make that into a dvd file?
[03:16] <fiXXXerMet> dvd move8
[03:16] <fiXXXerMet> movie*
[03:16] <truna> Kamus_H_Zwisch-> an image that reflects a cdrom drive tray is open?
[03:16] <JohnMM> fiXXXerMet, not sure
[03:16] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> truna: yes, the "triangle image"
[03:16] <meez> hoi, for some reason ffmpeg isn't compiling with libfaac, or at least it doesnt appear to be, but 'libfaac enabled' is yes in ./configure... any idea why it might not work?
[03:17] <astro76> fiXXXerMet: try devede
[03:17] <fiXXXerMet> JohnMM: Well this is a start - thanks.
[03:17] <truna> Kamus_H_Zwisch-> oh, i didnt know that
[03:17] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> :(
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> rencore_: That is one of the dangers of playing with beta softwares...  I dont suppose you have any backups from before you installed it.

[03:18] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> i already do that
[03:18] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> in the gconf-editor
[03:18] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> the cd eject
[03:18] <FYI>  It just offered me an option to connect to a wireless network; I tried that and now it has a defunct wireless network under the network manager tray icon. do you have any idea as to how to delete this?
[03:18] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> perfect
[03:18] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> but
[03:18] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> does not show the image
[03:18] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> that is the problem

[03:20] <truna> FYI you can delete those, look around the nm settings
[03:20] <javatexan> !me beginning to dislike ffmpeg and mencoder  >(((
[03:20] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> :(
[03:20] <B2ASpirit> been there :/
[03:20] <javatexan> Its really particular about its output being 4:3 or 16:9 and the input I am getting is 480x480....I'd really like to tell it to leave it alone and not scale...but I dont know how
[03:21] <fiXXXerMet> I have a .avi file.  How can I burn that to a DVD so that it plays in a DVD player?
[03:21] <meez> im hating at ffmpeg in general, 'libfaac enabled: yes', then after compiling it still spits out 'Unknown encoder libfaac' and it's really peeving me off now
[03:21] <javatexan> i would hard code it but I am getting 4 different sizes coming in, so I wanted to generically tell mencoder to leave that part alone
[03:21] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> fiXXXerMet: use "devede" to convert
[03:21] <TooDamFas1> fiXXXerMet:  try "tovid"   you can get it with synaptic
[03:21] <ogre> hey guys, I am running my system off of AWN and am looking to delete all panels. is it possible to delete the last panel?
[03:21] <FYI> truna: it picks up the DNS servers under DNS in Network Settings
[03:21] <zenobius> ogre: i wouldnt
[03:21] <javatexan> does megui work on ubuntu  ;))))
[03:22] <fiXXXerMet> TooDamFas1: Thanks.
[03:22] <zenobius> ogre: notification panel isnt right yet
[03:22] <ogre> zenobius:  but is it possible?
[03:22] <meez> javatexan: in theory via wine, but using video encoders in emulators isn't a good idea :P
[03:22] <ogre> zenobius:  its working great for me
[03:22] <zenobius> ogre: you have to prevent gnome-panel from starting, or just set it to autohide
[03:22] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> TooDamFas1: i'm not iterested, but the package does not exists
[03:22] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> :D
[03:22] <javatexan> yeah......
[03:22] <javatexan> ffmpeg is broken
[03:23] <zenobius> ogre: awn notification tray it doesnt size with the rest of the dock
[03:23] <meez> you can say that again, but I don't think people would appreiciate it it and !enter you
[03:23] <ogre> zenobius:  yeah, i noticed that.
[03:23] <javatexan> I have to wait for patch or go back a version or two, but I cant do that. SO Iwas trying to fix with mencoder
[03:23] <meez> mmm, try an older versiobn
[03:24] <zenobius> ogre: when they fix that and provide an exact clone of the menu, im sold
[03:24] <ogre> zenobius:  i know, its beautiful
[03:24] <zenobius> ogre: my mac friends are now spewing they spent so much money on their new 5 seat license panther
[03:24] <RyanPrior> What is the command to show what distro is being run?
[03:24] <cua0> does anyone know if it's possible to get old libstdc++ packages ? i have libstdc++.6.so but i need libstdc++.5
[03:25] <cua0> RyanPrior: uname -a
[03:25] <fit4lfe> Help I locked my self out of my Desktop only thing I was doing was unzipping a tgz file ?
[03:25] <Kamus_H_Zwisch>  how to eject a second cd tray and show the "eject image"
[03:25] <fit4lfe> now I can't get in
[03:25] <RyanPrior> cua0: That doesn't show distro information, just kernel information.
[03:25] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> RyanPrior: uname -a
[03:25] <ogre> zenobius:  I'm currently triple booting vista/leopard/ubuntu
[03:25] <drgonzo00000> when i run cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec I get the error: no such file or directory

[03:27] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> how to eject a second cd tray and show the "triangle eject image"
[03:27] <zenobius> ogre: hackintosh?
[03:27] <TooDamFas1> tovid is an easy way to make dvd's out of video files.
[03:27] <ogre> zenobius:  yep
[03:27] <truna> FYI  try  sudo "(ifdown eth0; ifup eth0; ifconfig)"  and see if you get an ip address
[03:27] <zenobius> ogre: waht northbridge you got>
[03:28] <tanath> anyone know of any probs with wine's net connectivity?
[03:28] <ogre> zenobius:  what is northbridge?
[03:28] <tanath> i'm trying to play a lan game through wine, but the game says it can't detect a valid address
[03:28] <mynyml> i'd like to access a windows box graphically - what tool can i use?
[03:28] <zenobius> ogre the chip on you motherboard that directs data between the pci bus and the cpu and themem chips
[03:29] <ogre> zenobius:  jeez I have no clue
[03:29] <mattholimeau> i'm trying to mount my windows hard drive... anyone know what the mount type should be?
[03:29] <zenobius> ogre: no problem, just a passing fancy
[03:29] <jtt> tanath, rdesktop
[03:29] <ogre> hehe
[03:29] <mattholimeau> my guess was vfat - it didn't work
[03:29] <tanath> jtt, i think you meant that for mynyml
[03:29] <meez> mattholimeau: probably ntfs?
[03:29] <jtt> yeah
[03:30] <ogre> zenobius:  I'm running it all off a dirt cheap lappy. $600 last year on black friday
[03:30] <mynyml> jtt: thanks
[03:30] <zenobius> ogre: waht gets used more?
[03:30] <luchador|bbl> i got ubuntu last night.. when i try playing a game i get 5-15 fps
[03:30] <jtt> mynyml, rdesktop
[03:30] <luchador|bbl> any ideas whats wrong?
[03:30] <tanath> mynyml, there's a vnc app too
[03:30] <meez> luchador|bbl: did you install the restrictive drivers?
[03:30] <ogre> zenobius:  ubuntu is my primary OS. OSX for my gf and vista for win only apps
[03:30] <mynyml> tanath: thanks, i'll look that up too
[03:31] <Coffeegrindah> when using the minimal install CD how do I install X after getting the system up,. all doc's I'm finding suggest installing xorg but apt is telling me there is no installation candidate, is it hidden is another package
[03:31] <zenobius> mynyml: bit of tirvvia - using the xming package on windowsXp, i can run anything of my ubuntu box inside windows, over the network. again.....xming for windowsXp
[03:31] <zenobius> mynyml: trivia
[03:31] <tanath> anyone play diablo 2 through wine?
[03:32] <nickrud> Coffeegrindah: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg (and your favorite window manager)
[03:32] <jaxy> can someone tell me more about wine?  I need to know mainly how to install a windows program to run thru wine.
[03:32] <tanath> i'm trying to play a lan game, but it says it can't detect a valid tcp/ip address
[03:32] <zenobius> mynyml: its the same things as running appas from a linux remote machine using ssh username@remotecomputer -X (or -Y)
[03:32] <mattholimeau> The device '/dev/hda2' doesn't have a valid NTFS.
[03:32] <tanath> jaxy, just run the setup/installer with wine and the app should install itself
[03:32] <ogre> zenobius:  so if i disable gnome panel if awn crashes i cant make a panel to repair right?
[03:32] <jaxy> ok
[03:33] <jaxy> thanks, tanath
[03:33] <tanath> np
[03:33] <zenobius> mynyml: you just need to get windows to allow you to run singular windows apps on its remote cpu, but display locally on your computer.
[03:33] <mynyml> zenobius: i want to access data thats on a windows box over the net from my ubuntu box, not the other way around. i'll keep that in mind in case i need it though ;)
[03:33] <Coffeegrindah> nickrud, xserver-org suggests other packages though it's not available itself.. (did I frig up my repo's?
[03:33] <tanath> jaxy, with ubuntu wine should be the default app for exe files, so just double click it, and it should do the rest
[03:33] <tanath> jaxy, just like with windows
[03:33] <jaxy> tanath, thanks
[03:33] <nickrud> Coffeegrindah: most likely, xserver-xorg is in main you probably disabled that one
[03:33] <zenobius> ogre: if you need it back it can be a problem, maybe you want to segregate the two scenarios by using two diffrerent desktop sessions
[03:33] <mynyml> zenobius: oh wait ... i think i had misunderstood you
[03:34] <doxie> kennt wer von euch ne gute online colorlist? (auflistung von farben mit hexacode:>) plz melden
[03:34] <craigbass1976> Ok, so I'm back to boting from xubuntu cd (since DSL can't see /dev/sda for some reason)and now I'm getting, for errors, stuff like: 17179704.524000  Buffer I/O error on device hda, logical block 6572
[03:34] <Coffeegrindah> nickrud figured as much.. (thankfully I was smart and backed it up)
[03:34] <zenobius> mynyml: your aware how to run remote apps locally but leave cpu grinding to original remote host?
[03:34] <craigbass1976> In the installed ubuntu, the hd is sda, not sure why I'm getting hda errors, but will these just stop scrolling by at some point and boot to a livecd envoronment?
[03:35] <luchador|bbl> no meez i dont think i did
[03:35] <zenobius> mynyml: this is ideally waht you want from windows, but i suspect it willl cost you a grand poobah enterpirse license
[03:35] <doxie> hab danke
[03:35] <luchador|bbl> unless it automatically did it for me

[03:35] <frogmeat> hey anyone know a quick way to remove grub bootloader? I do not have a windows CD.  I used to have windows tho, and now ubuntu is the only OS I use
[03:35] <nickrud> !de | doxie
[03:35] <ubotu> doxie: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[03:36] <mynyml> zenobius: i didnt know that was even possible, guess thats why i got confused ... i would have thought the network would have been too big a bottleneck for that to be worth it though
[03:36] <doxie> sorry, was an amsg *g* a questions for a colortable ... but its done
[03:36] <luchador|bbl> how do i install the restrictive drivers?
[03:36] <Coffeegrindah> niickrud thanks .. saves me from digging out my backup
[03:36] <zenobius> mynyml: its actually quite smaller bandwidth that vnc or or framebuffering remote  type apps things
[03:37] <zenobius> mynyml: im not sure, but maybe windows terminal server can do it. but i have a feeling that too is a framebuffer type thing
[03:37] <frogmeat> hey anyone know a quick way to remove grub bootloader? I do not have a windows CD.  I used to have windows tho, and now ubuntu is the only OS I use
[03:37] <DanaG> How do you deactivate a USB port, the way Windows XP does when you do "Safely Remove Hardware"?
[03:37] <nickrud> frogmeat: you'd replace it, what do you want to replace it with?
[03:37] <zenobius> DanaG: you dont
[03:37] <luchador|bbl> just hit eject
[03:37] <luchador|bbl> right click it
[03:38] <zenobius> DanaG: and windows desnt either
[03:38] <DanaG> Actually, XP does!
[03:38] <meez> hoi, ffmpeg ./configure claims that libfaac is enabled, but, after compiling, it doesn't become available in ffmpeg -formats and trying to encode withit spits out an unknown encoder error, any ideas? :\
[03:38] <dark__> DanaG you can unmount the device manually
[03:38] <zenobius> DanaG: actually ...it doesnt
[03:38] <nickrud> DanaG: it doesn't deactivate, it makes sure any data that needs to get written to the device does get written before you remove the device
[03:38] <zenobius> DanaG: you just eject it. if it was disabled when it umnmounted you wouldnt be able to use it further on.
[03:39] <DanaG> Then why is it that ejecting the device in Linux leaves it on "USB Connected", but ejecting it on Windows leaves the device disconnected but still given power?
[03:39] <zenobius> DanaG: device name?
[03:39] <DanaG> Cowon iAudio 6.
[03:40] <tanath> can anyone help me get diablo 2 working for a lan game?
[03:40] <tanath> says it can't detect a valid tcp/ip address
[03:40] <frogmeat> hey anyone know a quick way to remove grub bootloader? I do not have a windows CD.  I used to have windows tho, and now ubuntu is the only OS I use
[03:41] <Whatsinaname> Blinkiz Thanks for the help,  I knew I was missing something simple,  I had to create a directory and then mount my md0 to it.  I feel so noobish in this whole linux thing.
[03:41] <heatmzzr> pici, u there
[03:41] <neeto> Is there a way that I can have a different desktop picture on each workspace?
[03:41] <nickrud> frogmeat: what do you mean, remove the bootloader? you want to just erase it, or replace it with some other bootloader?
[03:41] <tanath> frogmeat, you could change it to lilo, or you can configure it not to show, but you may want to keep it. if something happens to one kernel, you can still boot an older one
[03:41] <zenobius> DanaG: you understand the advantage windows has due to being the OS these thigns are made for? plus the tech specs arent open for general browsing, if they were this wouldnt be a problem
[03:42] <DanaG> I know I can do it by using the 'unbind' feature of /sys/bus/usb (I think it is).
[03:42] <zenobius> DanaG: having said that, have you done searching for your device?
[03:42] <tanath> frogmeat, there may be a bug in a newer kernel that could prevent you from booting. by booting to an older, working kernel, you'd be able to fix the prob
[03:42] <nickrud> DanaG: in other words, we don't know why your Cowon reads differently, possibly becuause you're using speciallized software in windows to control the device
[03:42] <zenobius> DanaG: so eject and unmount comds dont do much?
[03:42] <heatmzzr> neeto yes cause i found it tonight
[03:43] <DanaG> It's a standard USB Mass Storage device.
[03:43] <goldsniper> hi all
[03:43] <neeto> heatmzzr: no way? what's it called?
[03:43] <DanaG> Oh, and Vista also doesn't power off devices like XP used to.
[03:43] <jaxy> tanath, works like a charm.  thanks
[03:43] <goldsniper> is there any way to make  my files shareable to windows user?
[03:43] <MartianLobster>  I am trying to assign my ubuntu laptop a static ip,  I clicked network icon, manual configuration, wireless connection,  properties, then put in a static address, the subnet etc, then click close.  But when I type ifconfig, eth1 is not active.  When I ping my gateway, I get the error message, "network is not reachable"
[03:43] <heatmzzr> wallpapoz neeto..   that was the only reason i was drawn to kde. but now
[03:43] <zenobius> DanaG: and everyone knows that vista is the hallmark of computer OS to strive to....[/sarcasm]
[03:44] <Whatsinaname> Ok so I mounted my raid 1 as a folder, but how do I mount it as a drive?
[03:44] <heatmzzr> google wallpapoz neeto
[03:44] <neeto> heatmzzr: i will, thanks mate.
[03:44] <DanaG> Here's how to be like Vista: go around randomy breaking features on purpose, because "people don't use them".
[03:44] <frogmeat> I guess I could just clean up the conf file
[03:44] <javatexan> how do I get the man pages for all the stuff installed in ubuntu?
[03:44] <MirrorImage> KDE4 is...odd.
[03:44] <forsaken> i have a soundcard getting input, and 5.1 speakers that are outputting 5.1 sound from rhythmbox, but it is only doing 2 speakers from the input, is there a way to mix the input the same way that sound is through the programs?
[03:44] <jrlenz> aha
[03:44] <zenobius> DanaG: or try copy ubuntu's gksudo but give no real security on it
[03:44] <MirrorImage> Do windows look like windows in windows98 for anyone else in KDE4?
[03:45] <bosco_>  bosco_ say that you have the correct versions installed and that the module will not load. show them what you showed me.
 tomd, do y

[03:46] <chrols> Anybody here familiar with using XFS?
[03:46] <zenobius> DanaG: LOL your device is a 'PlaysForSure' gimmick?
[03:47] <goldsniper> :?
[03:47] <goldsniper> is there any step by step guide on samba?
[03:47] <zenobius> DanaG: sorry, try getting MTP support for banshee?
[03:47] <zenobius> goldsniper yes read the wiki
[03:47] <goldsniper> huh
[03:47] <goldsniper> ok..thanks anyway

[03:48] <LiraNuna> is dualview with an ATI chipset possible?
[03:48] <doxie> samba filesharing is VERY easy... :>
[03:48] <Whatsinaname> ARRG after reboot raid goes away meh
[03:48] <LiraNuna> I got it working on one of my laptops, but it's using nvidia(-settings)
[03:48] <LiraNuna> can't get it to work with ATI
[03:48] <zenobius> goldsniper: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComprehensiveSambaGuide
[03:49] <dark__> Whatsinaname have you tried adding it in fstab
[03:49] <toresn> how can i check if a certain port is open or not?
[03:49] <zenobius> toresn: netstat i think
[03:49] <Whatsinaname> I did dark__ I hope it is right, Ill recheck but I had to assemble it again.
[03:50] <zenobius> toresn: for for info type 'info netstat' or 'man netstat' in your terminal
[03:50] <DanaG> Oh yeah, my device is a USB Mass Storage device, actually.
[03:50] <DanaG> And another odd fact is that even when I put it in MTP mode, it STILL shows up as a USB Mass Storage device to Linux.
[03:50] <Whatsinaname> Dark__ my fstab has /dev/md0  /storage ext3 defaults 0 0
[03:50] <zenobius> DanaG: you mean it can be a UMS. like the ipod i press menu and play while booting to go into dedicated UMS mode
[03:51] <dark__> Whatsinaname and still md0 is not mounted in /storage
[03:51] <dark__> Whatsinaname..mmmmm
[03:51] <DanaG> http://www.cowonamerica.com/products/iaudio/6/
[03:51] <Whatsinaname> Ill reboot one more time...
[03:51] <dark__> shouldnt have to
[03:51] <zenobius> DanaG: well it is a PlaysForSUre device, so there will be nasty stuff in its chips?
[03:52] <DanaG> It's a native UMS device.  No software needed, actually.
[03:52] <Whatsinaname> It looks like at reboot the raid 1 needs to be assembled again.  Ill check mdadm.conf as well
[03:52] <dark__> ya that is something i wouldn't know about im afraid
[03:53] <Whatsinaname> dark__ by default does ubuntu have a storage  folder at / ?
[03:53] <toresn> state = filtered means that the port is closed?
[03:53] <UnsafeData> I have a Broadcam 54g MaxPerformance which is on my HP zv5000 laptop. I installed Ubuntu using Wubi and I don't know how to connect to Wireless since I'm kind of a complete n00b. I mean I've used Ubuntu in the past but I'm clueless on how to get this thing to work, since I never tried Wireless on ubuntu before.
[03:54] <zenobius> DanaG:                    Supports MAC OS (Data transfer only), Supports Linux v 2.2 or                    higher (Data transfer only)
[03:54] <dark__> Whatsinaname not sure what you mean by that... everything starts from / and every file and folder, mounted or otherwise resides below /
[03:54] <zenobius> DanaG: by Linux v 2.2 they mean the kernel i assume
[03:54] <toresn> zenobius, i decided to go for nmap... i was notified that the port i was scanning is filtered
[03:54] <zenobius> DanaG: so you may have to investigate going back to an older kernel
[03:54] <dark__> Whatsinaname so yeh
[03:54] <toresn> zenobius, does this mean that it's closed?
[03:55] <zenobius> toresn: yeah nmap is good, try jnettop for a real time look
[03:55] <DanaG> Umm, I don't have any problems with data transfer.
[03:55] <zenobius> toresn: filtered means its not letting traffic from you in
[03:55] <dark__> toresn you can use nmap for a more detailed view of ports
[03:55] <Whatsinaname> Oh, dark__ I created a folder called /storage  maybe I will try a different name lol
[03:55] <DanaG> I put my music (organized in folders) on the device (organized in folders), and then unmount.  Then I start the device, and there my music is, ready to play.
[03:56] <toresn> zenobius, dark__ , i would like to open port 8000 ... how should i do this?
[03:56] <fit4lfe> drwxr-s--x  can anyone tell me my Desktop dir has these permissions
[03:56] <dark__> Whatsinaname its fine to create folders immediatley below / just make sure youve got the right permissions on it and that
[03:56] <nickrud> DanaG: so, what is the issue then? It works
[03:56] <UnsafeData> I got an HP laptop with Broadcam Maxperformance 54g and I'm clueless on how to get it to work in ubuntu.. wireless.. clueless, beginner.. etc.
[03:56] <zenobius> toresn: easy way -> install firestarter and allow access on port 8000 for anyone or only one ip
[03:56] <dark__> toresn it will be open by default, once a connection has been made it will show up
[03:57] <fit4lfe> drwxr-s--x  what is the s permission
[03:57] <DanaG> The issue is that I can't leave it plugged in to charge, without it putting the device into a "you can't play from me because I'm being used by the computer" mode.
[03:57] <Whatsinaname> dark__ my /storage folder shows 690Gigs of space but after reboot it shows 32gigs.
[03:57] <zenobius> dark__: prettty sure he mean incoming oprt to open. not outgoing
[03:57] <zenobius> toresn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Firestarter
[03:57] <bluefoxx> is it Raising Elephants Is So Uterly Boring or Raising Elephants Is So Very Boring?
[03:58] <Pici> bluefoxx: utterly.
[03:58] <DanaG> Actually, the same issue is a bigger deal with a USB hard drive I have -- it doesn't spin down the drive on eject.
[03:58] <Noogen> UnsafeData: wireless is a little tricky in linux.  You may be lucky and get it to work easily or it might take a lot of work.  1.  identify you hardware 2. identify if there is a linux driver for it or that you have to us ndiswrapper (run windows driver in linux)
[03:58] <toresn> dark__, ok, so i don't need to worry about opening this port...?
[03:58] <UnsafeData> anyone gonna help me?
[03:58] <bluefoxx> Pici: ok, thanks
[03:58] <nickrud> DanaG: and when you're using it on windows, was there some software that came with it that you installed? Something that provides more than data transfer?
[03:58] <zenobius> DanaG: ipod with rockbox had same, i just had to hold menu button whilst botting ipod to prevent diskmode
[03:58] <fit4lfe> drwxr-s--x anyone tell me what the s option is ?
[03:58] <Whatsinaname> dark__  I then reassemble the raid and mount it again and it works.  hmmmm
[03:58] <dark__> toresn.. probably not, usless youre looking to forward that port from a router to a specific machine
[03:58] <UnsafeData> Noogen: Okay then how do i use ndiswrapper?
[03:58] <Noogen> UnsafeData: to identify your hardware, open a console/terminal and type: lspci
[03:58] <erawfish> fit4lfe: suid?
[03:59] <dark__> Whatisinaname hum....
[03:59] <toresn> dark__, well, i'm setting up icecast (with mpd) so that i can access to my music wherever i am
[03:59] <Whatsinaname> It looks like my raid dosn't stay assembled.
[03:59] <dark__> Whatisinaname raid aint something i really know about im afRAID
[03:59] <dark__> toresn yes
[03:59] <Whatsinaname> lol thats a good one
[03:59] <toresn> dark__, so i need access to my_ip:8000
[03:59] <zenobius> toresn: which means you will need to allow *incoming* access on the port you desire
[03:59] <UnsafeData> i'll get help on wireless later i'll be back soon
[03:59] <At0mic_P1> Any idea where Gnome Phone manager keeps the pin?
[03:59] <dark__> toresn ok
[03:59] <toresn> zenobius, yes
[03:59] <dark__> toresn shall i try it for you?
[04:00] <B-rabbit> fit4lfe, http://linux.about.com/cs/linux101/g/suidlparsetuser.htm
[04:00] <toresn> dark__, yes, please
[04:00] <zenobius> toresn: and the easiest way to do that is using firestarter
[04:00] <Whatsinaname> Ok thanks dark__ off to google some stuff about mdadm conf file  thanks for hte help...
[04:00] <Pici> !away > Whats|Away (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[04:00] <zenobius> toresn: unless you feel like dealing with iptable syntax
[04:01] <DanaG> Oh, I can use my device fine without any special software.  The only software it came with was a media player app and a syncing thingy for people who like to use such apps.  The latter app also lets you edit FM Radio tuner presets.
[04:01] <zenobius> toresn: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/firestarter-firewall-for-your-ubuntu-desktop.html
[04:02] <dark__> toresn oky so that isnt working
[04:02] <Pici> !firewall
[04:02] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:02] <zenobius> DanaG: maybe it needs firmware update, or maybe its the kind of device that has firmware that works in tandem with windows api?
[04:02] <DanaG> Aaaaah:
[04:02] <fit4lfe> great how can un set suid on the desktop dir
[04:02] <DanaG> USB selective suspend/resume and wakeup (EXPERIMENTAL) (USB_SUSPEND)
[04:02] <DanaG> If you say Y here, you can use driver calls or the sysfs "power/state" file to suspend or resume individual USB peripherals.
[04:02] <zenobius> DanaG: typical only "worksForSure" on our system type monopoly
[04:03] <DanaG> That's the issue: the Ubuntu kernel lacks that feature.
[04:03] <zenobius> DanaG: waht i said
[04:03] <dark__> toresn it should work fine, however if youre using a router, you will need to configure that port to be forwarded on it
[04:03] <marshall> how do you get the Deskbar interface from ubuntu feisty back? i dont like this windowed business
[04:03] <Ausmosis> Hi!... Just did a fresh install of Gutsy and I'm having issues with editing ID3 tags in Rhythmbox as well as xmms. Anyone else having this issue?
[04:03] <toresn> dark__, ok, hold on...
[04:03] <Smilevil> hey help i have a machine with win xp then i go to install ubuntu, i click install with i reach the partition part, i put to take 15gb of free space, i got error so i click to do it manually and says 80gb doswin or something like that, i edit to put it 5gb of free space and install / as reiserf then, it appears the entire disk 80gb like / reiserf, i didn't format it, i restart the pc and it says error loading operating system, my winxp did
[04:03] <Smilevil> n't load,what can i do??? sorry for my english
[04:04] <lusepuster> marshall, me neither but I'm afraid it's a choice not left to us
[04:04] <zenobius> marshall: tried right anything yet? like right clikc on it for preferences?
[04:04] <veraxus> ok  I have a lexmark printer can I make it work on ubuntu
[04:04] <zenobius> marshall: ahh your in the cursed gutsy land
[04:04] <hunchybunch> Ausmosis, ive always used easytag for that
[04:04] <jimmygoon> cursed?
[04:04] <DanaG> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/150783
[04:04] <zenobius> gutsy = too many new users and too many bugs
[04:05] <[hC]> So Ive just tried using the 7.10 live cd, vga out is perfectly fine, but using the RCA TV out on my ATI card produces just a white screen. any ideas?
[04:05] <marshall> lusepuster: lol it stinks
[04:05] <Ausmosis> hunchybunch, thank's for that. I take it there are issues then?
[04:05] <marshall> zenobius: yeah, i know
[04:05] <zenobius> feisty is much more stable
[04:05] <zenobius> marshall: if you want stable and reliable go back to feisty
[04:05] <marshall> zenobius: but i like flashy and cutting edge
[04:05] <zenobius> marshall: its where i am at for my bigdekstop
[04:06] <hunchybunch> Ausmosis, i am not sure since i have only used easy tag
[04:06] <lusepuster> marshall, I've heard rumours that the old interface might get back in later versions as an option but not sure.
[04:06] <zenobius> marshall: falshy? i have compiz on both screens (as one cube)
[04:06] <steve2938> Anyone know any guides to change the GDM spash screen? I can't seem to find any good ones.
[04:06] <marshall> lusepuster: it better, this interface makes me hate life
[04:06] <zenobius> marshall: gah my gesticular dyslexia is cutting in
[04:06] <toresn> dark__, just to be sure, i need to forward port 8000 from my outside ip to my inside ip (<IP_ADDRESS>) ?
[04:06] <Ausmosis> hunchybunch, OK. Thanks. I'll give it a shot and see if easytag can resolve my issue.
[04:06] <marshall> zenobius: what is gesticular dyslexia?
[04:06] <DanaG> Oh yeah, are there any PDF editing apps?
[04:06] <releod> Hey - does anyone have a good tutorial on how to setup a QoS for SSH?
[04:07] <dark__> toresn yes .. so you are using a router?
[04:07] <zenobius> steve2938: gestures and dyslexia
[04:07] <DanaG> (random note: I just use the old Deskbar.)
[04:07] <zenobius> woops mistell
[04:07] <toresn> dark__, i am using a router, yes
[04:07] <heatmzzr> neeto, did you get it going?
[04:07] <lusepuster> marshall, okay seems like it's reeeeeeeally bugs you :-)
[04:07] <Pirate-King> how do you shut off sound in startup?
[04:07] <marshall> lusepuster: lol
[04:07] <dark__> toresn .. ahh oky.. yes ports on there need to be forwarded to work properly
[04:07] <lusepuster> DanaG, pdfedit
[04:07] <neeto> heatmzzr: sorta, I am running compiz, and I thin there might be a conflict
[04:07] <marshall> zenobius: whats bigscreen?
[04:07] <zenobius> marshall: its about how  fingers... dont press right keys in right order
[04:07] <Smilevil> hey help i have a machine with win xp then i go to install ubuntu, i click install with i reach the partition part, i put to take 15gb of free space, i got error so i click to do it manually and says 80gb doswin or something like that, i edit to put it 5gb of free space and install / as reiserf then, it appears the entire disk 80gb like / reiserf, i didn't format it, i restart the pc and it says error loading operating system, my winxp did
[04:07] <Smilevil> n't load, what can i do??
[04:07] <lusepuster> DanaG, don't remember if it's in the repos though
[04:08] <dark__> toresn so is like saying to the router.. all connections on this port go to this machine, no questions asked kinda thing
[04:08] <sp0ro> Ok, something big and bad just happened to my GNOME interface. I had an error saying Nautilus is no longer working properly due to Bonoo(sp?). The only thing I changed was my GDM login screen. My problem is this: Items on the gnome desktop are no longer functioning correctly or loading very slowly. ie; When I click the shutdown button, it takes 15 seconds for the window to appear. It's easy for me to just sudo reboot than wait for the
[04:08] <sp0ro>  window to pop up. I no longer have 4 separate virtual desktops on my panel, even after I modify it to show 2 4 8, etc. So I am thinking something in my GNOME panel got screwed up by the GDM login screen possibly? Any ideas?
[04:08] <marshall> zenobius: theres a medical condition that causes typos?
[04:08] <hunchybunch> steve2938,system/administration/login window
[04:08] <nickrud> DanaG: that bug is about pulling kernel modules out of the kernel and thereby shutting down devices
[04:08] <forsaken> i have a soundcard getting input, and 5.1 speakers that are outputting 5.1 sound from rhythmbox, but it is only doing 2 speakers from the input, is there a way to mix the input the same way that sound is through the programs?
[04:08] <heatmzzr> no there isnt i am running it also, in the left where you select backgrounds, just select one for each desktop to begin with
[04:08] <zenobius> marshall: one desktop spread across two monitors.
[04:08] <lusepuster> Smilevil, did it look like there was only one partition when you were done?
[04:08] <DanaG> But even doing that doesn't shut down the device.
[04:08] <marshall> zenobius: mmm
[04:08] <DanaG> And even though CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND is enabled, the /power/state files are missing.
[04:08] <marshall> zenobius: ill probably do that with my desktop
[04:09] <heatmzzr> Im using four different backgrounds on four different desktops right now, works grea
[04:09] <marshall> zenobius: it seems rather sexy
[04:09] <marshall> zenobius: its got a crt though, that could be a little lame
[04:09] <DanaG> (oh yeah, I'm on Hardy now, but I even had that issue in Gutsy.  Well, at least I've satisfied my curiosity.  Oh, and the pdf question was my original question, but then I got distracted.... silly me.)
[04:09] <marshall> zenobius: i was thinking i would buy 2 flat-screens for like 200-300 each
[04:09] <dark__> Whatisinaname check this thread out http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-59960.html  the bottom post might help you somewhat
[04:09] <zenobius> marshall: fesity has more luck with it, gutsy will use ranr and interfere with your nice xorg
[04:09] <heatmzzr> keep farting with it neeto, it does work. just takes a sec to figure out
[04:09] <toresn> dark__, ok, try now  (toresn.dyndns.org:8000)
[04:10] <marshall> zenobius: hmm
[04:10] <nickrud> DanaG: ah, pdf. What was the question :)
[04:10] <lusepuster> DanaG, did you see my reply about PDFEdit?
[04:10] <dark__> toresn yes that seems to be working :)
[04:10] <DanaG> Yeah.
[04:11] <lusepuster> Cool, just couldn't tell
[04:11] <dark__> toresn .. icecast2?
[04:11] <DanaG> I'm also curious: how do you use a device in MTP mode?
[04:11] <toresn> dark__, you got an icecast status page?
[04:11] <toresn> dark__, yes :-)
[04:11] <nickrud> DanaG: pdfedit is in the repos, but it sucks last time I used it
[04:11] <Darkmystere> well can some 1 tell me how to get Splash Thing working in Wubi 7.10....
[04:11] <neeto> heatmzzr: I will
[04:11] <dark__> toresn yup that what i got
[04:11] <zenobius> DanaG: ooo OLED display. nice
[04:11] <sp0ro> Anyone have any idea why I have no title bars on any of my windows anymore?
[04:11] <toresn> dark__, i'm gonna try streaming, hold on...
[04:12] <zenobius> DanaG: can it read and display iCal/vCards?
[04:12] <lusepuster> nickrud, DanaG yep it's not the best app around but it does the job and I don't know of others, if you don't wanna use Gimp for it and that is sure an ugly solution
[04:12] <toresn> dark__, try downloading the stream  (must have a player that can play ogg)
[04:12] <nickrud> sp0ro: your window decorator/manager crashed, are you using compiz
[04:12] <tyler> what is the ftp command (shell) to download an entire directory?  Recursively?
[04:12] <Darkmystere> ??
[04:12] <dark__> toresn .. yes thats working .. some country and western from the sound of it
[04:12] <nickrud> lusepuster: convert it to ps and edit the ps, then pstopdf . Suck too
[04:12] <toresn> dark__, yes, bluegrass :-)
[04:12] <zenobius> tyler: man ftp not giving you info you need?
[04:12] <zenobius> tyler: 'man ftp'
[04:12] <Smilevil> lusepuster, it's a 80gb disc, it has winxp, manually i take 5gb to install / reiserf but it give me a error that i dont remember and took the entire disk, now says / reiserf 80gb and before says ntfs /dos (or somethiing) 80gb, i just restart and give me that error, now ubuntu cd live i watch the disc and doesn't have info, just 32mb used Damd
[04:12] <lusepuster> nickrud, what would you use for editing a ps?
[04:12] <UnsafeData> I have bcm43xx on HP zv5000 and trying to install wireless on ubuntu 7.10. installed it using wubi. i dunno how to setup wireless for ubuntu and i can't download any drivers on it by connecting an ethernet cable (dont got one that i can use and dont' recommend one)
[04:13] <nickrud> lusepuster: emacs or vi
[04:13] <dark__> toresn cool :) .. so thats sorted then, yeh.. you just have to remember that for anyone on the internet to get to a service on your computer you need to forward the ports of the router
[04:13] <DanaG> Nope, my device is a simple media player that also does video.  Oh, and using a calendar on it would be painful, probably.
[04:13] <sp0ro> nickrud: I am using default GNOME at the moment. Like I said earlier, the only thing I changed was the GDM login screen. Now everything related to the GNOME interface is bugged.
[04:13] <toresn> dark__, yes, thank you very much
[04:13] <DanaG> And it actually gets washed out when in sunlight, yet is too bright at minimum when in a dark room at night.
[04:13] <lusepuster> nickrud, yeah well that would be, like, absolutely an expert's solution...
[04:13] <zenobius> DanaG: not using as in editing, jsut a display so you can remind yourself in the day time. sync it when you get home
[04:14] <dark__> toresn no prob.. all good fun :) im gonna check out that icecast thingy
[04:14] <nickrud> lusepuster: I was desperate once.
[04:14] <zenobius> DanaG: oo, ok not good
[04:14] <UnsafeData> I have bcm43xx on HP zv5000 and trying to install wireless on ubuntu 7.10. installed it using wubi. i dunno how to setup wireless for ubuntu and i can't download any drivers on it by connecting an ethernet cable (dont got one that i can use and dont' recommend one)
[04:14] <toresn> dark__, yup, works great together with mpd
[04:14] <nickrud> lusepuster: luckily it was pretty simple stuff, only took me a couple days
[04:14] <DanaG> Here's my opinion of pdfedit so far: scrollFREEEEZE   zooomFREEEZE drag page divider: FREEZE.
[04:14] <Darkmystere> Can some 1 tell me how to get Splash working
[04:14] <Smilevil> lusepuster, i run cd of winxp and i run active partition recover and it finds a ntfs the one i lost but still same error and it says about invalid #0 or sector #0
[04:14] <DanaG> Well, I just want to block out a few things using these characters:  ████
[04:14] <DanaG> (The block IS the character I'll use.)
[04:15] <dark__> toresn cool.. i just got used to my ktorrent web interface.. ive just been using ssh and stuff before
[04:15] <nickrud> DanaG: convert to ps, replace the text with the block, convert back to pdf. That one is simple
[04:15] <hunchybunch> Darkmystere, did you install in text mode by chance?
[04:15] <dark__> toresn well sweet we both learn something today! yey
[04:16] <toresn> dark__, :)
[04:16] <zenobius> if peoples used 'em' instead of 'px' in their webpages, pdfs wouldnt be needed
[04:16] <nickrud> if browsers all treated em's the same ...
[04:16] <Smilevil> lusepuster, hello
[04:16] <hunchybunch> Darkmystere, why dont you apt-cache search usplash and install one??
[04:16] <compaq-d> what is the command to resize the partition using fdisk ? ...... I am using the live CD
[04:16] <zenobius> pdf is for binary documents, that cant be edited...ok so wahts pdfedit then? ok so pdfs are good for preserving formatting layout....is that all?
[04:16] <Darkmystere> hunchybunch: Nope its a Graphical Installl
[04:16] <DanaG> I wonder... I've used pdf2ps and vice versa to de-DRM a pdf (for the sake of accessibility) in Linux; are there Windows versions of those tools? (don't need an answer, since this is not the channel for that.)
[04:17] <Noogen> UnsafeData: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Gutsy
[04:17] <heatmzzr> is there a way to get a program to autostart when i boot up.
[04:17] <Darkmystere> hunchybunch: i already have Usplash theme ready to be used and i have startupmanager... so im kinda lost
[04:17] <zenobius> DanaG: yeah there are psuedo printers
[04:17] <nickrud> sp0ro1: sorry, got sidetracked.  for the borders,  alt-f2 metacity --replace should put them back
[04:18] <sp0ro1> nickrud: Alright, I'll try that once the linux box reboots. :)
[04:18] <Darkmystere> hunchybunch: And im pretty sure...That Usplash is Installed..
[04:18] <hunchybunch> heatmzzr, yes - system/preferences/sessions and add your program to it
[04:18] <B-rabbit> heatmzzr, add the program that u want to start up at boot to the system > preference >sessions
[04:18] <Slyboots> B-rabbit, Cheers, I was wondering that too :D
[04:18] <hunchybunch> Darkmystere, is your theme installed?
[04:18] <compaq-d> what is the command to resize the partition using fdisk ? ...... I am using the live CD
[04:19] <Darkmystere> hunchybunch: Yep The Default 1 doesnt even work..
[04:19] <zenobius> would be good to make a nautilus script that makes use of the window size enviroment variable to make "tile windows horinzontally" or "tile windows vertically" like in kde
[04:19] <nickrud> DanaG: an answer anyway: most pdf/ps manipulations are done with ghostscript, which is available in windows
[04:19]  * B-rabbit winks at Slyboots
[04:19] <Darkmystere> Hunchybunch: it just flicks my proccessing light on and off really fast until it reaches my Login Screen
[04:19] <aceazza> Anyone know of a repo or .deb file for zenmap? I've googled but couldn't find anything.
[04:19] <jimmygoon> Has jedits font rendering improved any lately?
[04:20] <DanaG> What's the difference between 'pdf2ps' and 'pdftops'?
[04:20]  * nickrud assigns zenobius a new project
[04:20] <hunchybunch> Darkmystere, must be something with your video card and vesa mode possibly
[04:20] <DanaG> Well, the point was to keep the text, for running through a text-to-speech app.
[04:20] <exneo> I have proble cnr client won't install I get error dependency libqt4-core not satisfiable help I wnt cnr
[04:20] <Darkmystere> hunchtbunch: i Use ATI Card... And elaborate about vesa mode..
[04:21] <hunchybunch> Darkmystere, even when you boot up using the cd?
[04:21] <Darkmystere> hunchybunch: well it works in livecd and it worked when i first was starting the install with Wubi
[04:21] <exneo> so help me with cnr for fiesty plz
[04:21] <komputes>  exneo: have you tried "sudo apt-get install libqt4-core"
[04:22] <exneo> yes and then it still gave me the same error
[04:22] <exneo> so I uninstalled it and tried again and it failed again
[04:22] <JerseyMonkey> Anyone know of a good bit.torrent client that is terminal based and supports DHT?
[04:22] <DanaG> Apparently the difference is that pdftops works and pdf2ps doesn't, at least for my input file.
[04:22] <komputes> exneo: try removing the package and install libqt4-dev
[04:23] <nickrud> DanaG: pdf2ps is a shell script using ghostscript, pdftops uses poppler as it's backend
[04:23] <exneo> azerous is a good bit torrent client
[04:23] <Darkmystere> And....He/she goes Silent...
[04:23] <hunchybunch> Darkmystere, i use an old ati card also and have not had that issue, other than screwing it up by installing stuff, and even at that i was able to get it back.
[04:23] <DanaG> How do I edit the ps file now?
[04:23] <marshall> how do i replace nautilus with thunar as my default file opener in gutsy?
[04:23] <nickrud> DanaG: ps is just a text file
[04:24] <sp0ro> nickrud: alt+f2 is not bringing up the run window. :(
[04:24] <Darkmystere> Hunchybunch: i can get the splash loading screen on Livecd and when installing ubuntu
[04:24] <sp0ro> nickrud: Checked if gnome-panel was not running, but it is.
[04:24] <B-rabbit> exneo, i use "bittorrents" ....i haven't used azerous
[04:24] <dessnr> In case there others out there that are experiencing problems with skype updating the messages you type in, whilst you have effects on:  Download the beta version of skype and use that instead.  It seems to have ironed out my problems.  Hope it works for you.
[04:24] <nickrud> sp0ro: you don't see anything on your screen except the background I bet
[04:25] <exneo> I installed the gutsy deb on my fiesty box thanx to wubi
[04:25] <dark__> JerseyMonkey use ktorrent .. azureus is all java and a resource hog... you can also use utorrent through wine which works great
[04:25] <hunchybunch> marshall, gnome uses nautilus for many things, i don't think you really want to!
[04:25] <DanaG> I don't see any of the text that's in the original pdf.
[04:25] <sp0ro> nickrud: I can see this xchat and the panels fine, nothing works on the panels except the top panel though. :P
[04:25] <sp0ro> nickrud: Even then, the functions on the top panel are running extremely slow or not at all
[04:25] <nickrud> sp0ro: bad bet then. try killall gnome-panel
[04:25] <sp0ro> nickrud: kk
[04:26] <marshall> hunchybunch: i mean just for when i want to open a folder, i like thunar a lot more for regular file operations and browsing
[04:26] <JerseyMonkey> dark__, I am using this on a server with no GUI. Is ktorrent terminal based?
[04:26] <hunchybunch> Darkmystere, yea that is weird, for some reason grub isn't able to load it it sounds like
[04:26] <FYI> hello
[04:26] <bazhang> JerseyMonkey: rtorrent is
[04:26] <FYI> I got ethernet working, now for WiFi
[04:26] <dark__> JerseyMonkey no its got all the bells and whistles you need
[04:26] <hdxSfBr> I can play my avi movies with ubuntu can anybody help?
[04:27] <JerseyMonkey> bazhang, Going to give that a try, thankyou. Do you by chance know if that supports DHT?
[04:27] <hdxSfBr> I CANT play my avi movies with ubuntu can anybody help?
[04:27] <FYI> ubotu wifi
[04:27] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:27] <Whats|Away> Last question,  how do I mount my md0 as a drive, not a folder?
[04:27] <exneo> hey whats the best app to make a graphical ftp server for my fiesty box so my friends can download my files
[04:27] <dark__> JerseyMonkey so its not what you want i guess
[04:27] <DanaG> Wow, pdfedit DOES suck.
[04:27] <DanaG> Horribly.
[04:27] <DanaG> It can't even comprehend this character:  █
[04:27] <bazhang> hdxSfBr: you need to install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[04:27] <FYI> DanaG, what are you trying to do with PDF's?
[04:27] <JerseyMonkey> dark__, Thanx for recommendation, but the server cain't display GUI, so I wouldn't be able to use it. Thankyou though.
[04:27] <sp0ro> nickrud: Hm, even killall gnome-panel isn't making the panels go away heh. It acts like it's closing them, then they reappear. :|
[04:28] <hunchybunch> marshall, but nautilus is the file browser for gnome, and is tied into the system pretty tight, you can use it - but
[04:28] <bazhang> kmandla.wordpress.com has a rtorrent knowledgebase JerseyMonkey :}
[04:28] <DanaG> Change a bit of text -- I'm using a letter from Charter as an example of something for a class, but I want to cover up the account number and such with that box.
[04:28] <dark__> JerseyMonkey thats oky.. there are a few terminal clients i can recommend one in just a second
[04:28] <nickrud> sp0ro: they should return, that's a good sign actually.  In system->prefs->sessions, second tab, you can see the gnome aware apps that are running. If you selected gnome-panel there, you'd see that it was categorized as restart (dropdown just below the text window)
[04:29] <exneo> dont u just love the ubuntu philosophy
[04:29] <marshall> hunchybunch: i know, it controls file selection, the desktop and decides who will become president of the United States
[04:29] <exneo> and xchat
[04:29] <marshall> hunchybunch: but it sucks so much :'o
[04:29] <hunchybunch> Darkmystere, you didn't  bork grub or set permissions to initrd whereas it couldn't update it did you ?
[04:29] <Whats|Away> Dark__  I got my array to stick,  I had to sudo dpkg-reconfigure mdadm and recreat my array. works now.
[04:30] <Slyboots> anyone here used xbindkeys, know if it keeps a log somewhere.. it appears to have just stopped.. working
[04:30] <DanaG> I guess I can just draw a rectangle.
[04:30] <DanaG> But pdfedit repeatedly keeps repeatedly freezing, repeatedly.
[04:30] <DVS01> http://www.dvs01.net/pics/dvs-lan.jpg
[04:30] <DVS01> =]
[04:30] <DanaG> (yes, I did that on purpose.)
[04:30] <Whats|Away> Dark__ now if I could only mount it as a drive instead of a folder,  but that is totally irrelevent.  YEA! my Raid works!  Thanks again!
[04:30] <dark__> Whats|Away great!
[04:30] <JerseyMonkey> bazhang, reading guide off kamandla now. Thanx. Saw on official site it has DHT.
[04:30] <sp0ro> nickrud: Still no metacity and alt+f2 isn't allowing me to open the run window still.
[04:31] <bazhang> DVS01: not the right place for that
[04:31] <dark__> Whats|Away you gotta remember all drives are folders in linux. everything is a folder or a file
[04:31] <nickrud> sp0ro: try this test.  log out, ctl-alt-f1 , hit enter, and log in. do ps -A . If you see any gnome apps, killall them. also killall gconfd-2 , and bonobo-activation if you see them. Then ctl-alt-f7 and log back in.
[04:31] <sp0ro> nickrud: I mean, I can run metacity from the terminal and it works, but there is an underlying problem somewhere. :x
[04:31] <hdxSfBr> I CANT play my avi movies with ubuntu can anybody help?
[04:31] <exneo> so any ms horror stories worthy of irc
[04:31] <bazhang> hdxSfBr: install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[04:31] <exneo> sure thing hdxSfBr what do U want
[04:31] <kostkon> hdxSfBr, didi you install ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[04:31] <dark__> JerseyMonkey rtorrent is probably the best one in your circumstances
[04:32] <exneo> their are dvd apps illeagal movie downloads anything
[04:32] <nickrud> sp0ro1: try those steps I gave you, I've had that happen occasionally. Those apps (except gconfd-2, which takes sudo to kill) should not be there when you log out
[04:32] <kostkon> hdxSfBr, what media player are you using?
[04:32] <hunchybunch> marshall, i know :P - have you tried geubuntu or xubuntu?  they use it by default - or you can use it in ubuntu i guess - ot just wont be the default i am afraid.
[04:32] <exneo> dvd:.rip
[04:32] <sp0ro1> nickrud: On it right now, thanks. :)
[04:32] <bazhang> hdxSfBr: please stop repeating your question; the solution has been given
[04:32] <FYI> any idea how to increase screen brightness? I had to boot acpi=off initially and it's remained dim
[04:32] <danloz> Ok.  Let me say this:  1 week into my linux experience and you may call me a convert
[04:32] <marshall> hunchybunch: hmm, no i havent tried those
[04:32] <zenobius> DanaG : would be sweet if openoffice exported to document that is like pdf but used svg instead
[04:32] <FYI> I tried opening the power manager, but that did not work
[04:32] <danloz> I am officially swearing off windows for any reason other than the occasional game.
[04:32] <marshall> hunchybunch: i guess im kinda scared
[04:33] <exneo> so is their a good publishing program that makes pdfs for linux
[04:33] <zenobius> danloz: i only use windows for WoW. (win2k) at that
[04:33] <jescis> I have a problem
[04:33] <hdxSfBr> yes i installed  the restricted package...
[04:33] <exneo> wine worw
[04:33] <exneo> wine wow
[04:33] <sayers> How would I install apache2 again and have it install all the files nec. for /etc/apache2?
[04:33] <th0r> exneo openoffice makes pdf files
[04:33] <jescis> hello
[04:33] <jescis> sry(forgot)
[04:33] <zenobius> exneo: its called openoffice
[04:33] <danloz> zenobius:  That's the only good reason to do it.  This laptop is a dual boot.  I logged into vista for the first time in a week - and holy crap is it slow.
[04:33] <exneo> sudo apt-get install apache2
[04:33] <Scunizi> exneo: you mean for printing?
[04:33] <hunchybunch> yea, geubuntu is kinda broke and it is using pieces of gnome and xfce4 and e17 - and i don't think xubuntu works as well as ubuntu
[04:34] <nickrud> exneo: openoffice makes pdfs, and you can install cups-pdf to create pdf's from any document you can print
[04:34] <Scunizi> exneo: you want desktop publishing?
[04:34] <zenobius> danloz: would you believe iget better ping with win2k than winxp?
[04:34] <exneo> no for making stuff like fullcircle and school asignments
[04:34] <nickrud> exneo: I stand corrected, cups-pdf is now standard
[04:34] <DanaG> Aargh, pdfedit is reeeeally annoying.
[04:34] <zenobius> danloz: and linux kills them both
[04:34] <exneo> sweeeeeet
[04:34] <nickrud> DanaG: I warned you
[04:34] <exneo> thanx
[04:34] <sayers> exneo, I rm -rf'ed /etc/apache2 and now reinstalling apache 2 wont put files there
[04:35] <danloz> Zenobius:  Absolutely.  It was my top secret trick for Aces high for years.  You can also slim it down lower.  Best for another channel though.
[04:35] <sp0ro1> nickrud: Ugh, now I can't even type anything in tty1. Everything is slowing down. Let me double check and make sure there isn't something wrong with the cpu temps or the power supply real quick.
[04:35] <zenobius> danloz: mac and linux give better netowrk performance tha windows
[04:35] <musikgoat> anyone use xdvdshrink, i'm having trouble with it reading my dvd-r drive,  when I look at the props of a dvd inserted, it says its using /dev/cdrom0  but I set that for xdvdshrink and its not talking to the dvd drive
[04:35] <bazhang> !who | hdxSfBr
[04:35] <ubotu> hdxSfBr: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[04:35] <Scunizi> exneo: not sure what fullcircle is but inkscape, scribus, openoffice or load up the pdf writer that will print a pdf file  from anything.
[04:35] <exneo> then im srry I've used ubuntu almost exclusivly for a week so i dont know everything post somthing on the forum
[04:35] <zenobius> aye back on topic...
[04:35] <exneo> http://ubuntuforums.org
[04:35] <Whats|Away> dark__ once again thankyou.  I will get the hang of this.  I now have 2 750 gig drives in raid 1 on this server.  SAMBA here I Come!
[04:35] <danloz> By the way:  Can anybody recommend a good irc client?  Xirc and IRCLost aren't really my style
[04:35] <nickrud> sayers: that was a big mistake, more than apache puts files there ....
[04:35] <bazhang> hdxSfBr: please no pm; especially without asking
[04:36] <Scunizi> danloz: xchat, irssi
[04:36] <sayers> nickrud, Yes I see it was a mistake
[04:36] <zenobius> danloz: im using gaim right now
[04:36] <sp0ro1> nickrud: CPU temp seems to be fine, running at 35c. I have no idea what I did with my tools to check the powersupply though. :x
[04:36] <jescis> hello, I got an error in my terminal related to nautilus
[04:36] <Scunizi> danloz also opera has a nice chat client as well as FF
[04:36] <marshall> hunchybunch: i dont understand why people keep saying E17 is beautiful
[04:36] <dark__> Whats|Away w00t w00t :) all the best!
[04:36] <zenobius> danloz: yeah opera is very nice
[04:36] <ranbir> hi all, what is the best way to install lamp on ubuntu desktop 7.10?
[04:36] <bazhang> hdxSfBr: please no PM; do it in the channel.
[04:36] <exneo> so if I go to a channel in a different language will xchat translate it
[04:36] <nickrud> sayers: to start, do   dpkg -l '*apache*' | grep ^ii , that will find all the apache packages you have installed. Then do    sudo aptitude purge <those apache packages>
[04:36] <ranbir> is there a generic synaptic package for that?
[04:36] <exneo> firefox 3 is betr
[04:36] <danloz> Zenobius:  GAIM/PIDGIN both have irc capability.   Gotcha, I'll do that next.  This is a blast.
[04:36]  * dark__ is fading fast and needs some zzzzz's
[04:37] <musikgoat> anyone know how to identify reader device and writer device for xdvdshrink?
[04:37] <nickrud> sayers: the way apt/dpkg works is, if it sees you manually removed files from etc it assumes you did it for a reason and won't put them back
[04:37] <zenobius> exneo: your running ff3? wahts the load time. do all tabs freeze when loading new tab contnet?
[04:37] <sayers> nickrud, and how would I have it put them back
[04:37] <exneo> I just ran gdedinstaller but libqt4-dev didn't help what now?
[04:37] <exneo> for my cnr install
[04:38] <hdxSfBr> I have installed the restricted extras and VLC and I can't play my avi movies...tried mplayer as well... any help??
[04:38] <hunchybunch> marshall, me either, i guess cus it's new, at least for a while - but it gets as boring as any of them after a while.
[04:38] <exneo> try mythtv
[04:38] <danloz> Ranbir:  I would just do VMWARE with "Grandma's Lamp".  It's no fuss.  Good if you're developing something.  I wouldn't use it live/production though
[04:38] <dark__> ooo noes the mythtv
[04:38] <jescis> I still need help
[04:38] <nickrud> sayers: do those first two commands I gave you, then you would reinstall apache again. By purging you tell apt to remove the /etc files itself, so on the next install it will put them back
[04:38] <ranbir> danloz I want to but it on ubuntu though, vmware is too much overhead
[04:38] <exneo> k try kmplayer or totem
[04:38] <DanaG> How can it take 30 seconds to draw a rectangle?
[04:38] <dark__> sup jescis
[04:39] <exneo> gstreamer codes
[04:39] <Coffeegrindah> is there an extra repo I need to add to install xfce, I'm installed using a minimal CD.
[04:39] <jescis> hello, I got an error in my terminal related to nautilus
[04:39] <luchador|bbl> anyone know of a good program from restoring pics on a memory card
[04:39] <zenobius> hunchybunch:  marshall :they are referring to its desktop effects, its a bit better than xfce running xcompmngr
[04:39] <exneo> so any help putting cnr on my fiesty box
[04:39] <dark__> jescis .. yes?
[04:39] <zenobius> exneo: try linspire
[04:39] <marshall> zenobius: lol but compizfusion is the shiz
[04:39] <Scunizi> Coffeegrindah: sudo apt-get install xfce
[04:39] <nickrud> sayers: you probably will have errors with the purge, put them on the pastebin.  I have 20 minutes
[04:39] <jescis> ** (nautilus:7097): WARNING **: No description found for mime type "x-special/device-block" (file is "hda1"), please tell the gnome-vfs mailing list.
[04:39] <Whatsinaname> night all.  Thanks again for hte help Dark__
[04:39] <bazhang> www.cnr.com has forums exneo
[04:39] <shadowh511> that's bad
[04:39] <Whatsinaname> And I agree with needin ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz
[04:39] <zenobius> marshall: you know i know. expo all the way baby
[04:39] <shadowh511> rly bad
[04:40] <dark__> whatsinaname  night dood
[04:40] <marshall> zenobius: why would anybody refer to anything else as beautiful in the presence of compizfusion
[04:40] <Coffeegrindah> Scnunizi:: "Couldn't find pakgage xfce"
[04:40] <dark__> jescis
[04:40] <danloz> Ok so I actually do have a question.    I actually borked multiple ndis wrapper installs.
[04:40] <shadowh511> ti means that it is trying to access a critical part of the drive with the intention to write
[04:40] <jescis> SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSyes
[04:40] <dark__> jescis do you have any RAID or usb hard drives?
[04:40] <danloz> Is there a n00b friendly way remove all those installs?
[04:40] <marshall> zenobius: what do you do with expo?
[04:40] <sayers> nickrud, no error
[04:41] <DanaG> Oh, and it eats CPU while drawing it.
[04:41] <jescis> not pluged in
[04:41] <zenobius> marshall: expose for workspaces
[04:41] <nickrud> sayers: good. what packages did you remove?
[04:41] <dark__> jescis does this error affect your using of nautilus
[04:41] <sayers> nickrud, purge libapache2-mod-php5 apache2.2-common apache2-utils apache2-mpm-prefork
[04:41] <marshall> zenobius: and how do you change the number of desktops you have? i would like to use the cube thing but i dont know how to change the number of workspaces i have
[04:41] <nickrud> sayers: outstanding. Did you install php?
[04:41] <jescis> I just got it
[04:41] <zenobius> marshall: you have compizconfig-settings-manager?
[04:42] <sayers> nickrud, I installed LAMP when installing ubuntu-server so more than likely
[04:42] <Coffeegrindah> any ideas why I can't find the xfce package in apt?
[04:42] <dark__> jescis oky, so nautilus doesnt run at all now?
[04:42] <nickrud> sayers you did, a sec
[04:42] <zenobius> Coffeegrindah: becuase.... its acalled xfce4
[04:42] <zenobius> Coffeegrindah: you likd'a sauce?
[04:42] <Coffeegrindah> zenobius,, that would be a good reason
[04:42] <hunchybunch> zenobius, yea - it does have some nice effects to the menu and even the moving graphics on the wallpaper - a very artistic desktop shell - i cant wait till it comes together a bit more.
[04:42] <DanaG> Oh, and the rectangles didn't even DO anything!
[04:42] <jescis> it is running
[04:42] <Scunizi> Coffeegrindah: try sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[04:43] <tofaffy> I have the ATI Restricted drivers installed (I believe those are the flgrx drivers, no?) and I try and run compiz and it just kinda craps out on me...it says I have no glx or something.
[04:43] <Coffeegrindah> I'm doing a minimal install, I don't need all the extra goodies
[04:43] <zenobius> hunchybunch: with mac4lin its a jab in the ribs for my mac fanboi friends
[04:43] <Xavier_Z> hunchybunch: sorry, which software are you talking about?
[04:43] <DanaG> Correction: there's a "save copy" that copies the original, but there's no "save as".
[04:43] <dark__> jescis i would say then that the error is due to nautilus trying to find a device that was previously connected that isn't there anymore and theres not alot to worry about
[04:43] <nickrud> sayers: purge libapache2-mod-php5 . It may say it wants to remove some other packages, let it do it but make a note of them
[04:43] <Scunizi> Coffeegrindah: search synaptic or aptitude for xfce or xfce4 or xubuntu minimal
[04:43] <proqesi> can someone tell me what command to pass to mount my audio cd? sudo mount -i iso9660 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom doesn't work, although I can play the cd with vlc
[04:44] <hunchybunch> we were talking about e17
[04:44] <sp0ro1> nickrud: Hm I can no longer use the shutdown button to logout of the gnome session. Is there a terminal command to logoff x-server? or will alt+ctrl+backspace do the same thing essentially?
[04:44] <sayers> nickrud, nope that isn't even an installed package
[04:44] <jescis> ah, ok
[04:44] <proqesi> oops, that's -t, not -i
[04:44] <Xavier_Z> hunchybunch, sweet
[04:44] <nickrud> sp0ro1: yes, clt-alt-backspace does the same Be sure to save stuff first :)
[04:44] <zenobius> hunchybunch: im attracted to its animated wallpapers
[04:44] <proqesi> it should be mountable with that command
[04:44] <sp0ro1> nickrud: hehe
[04:44] <Coffeegrindah> Scunizi, xfce4 is currently bing installed, (doesn't help that all online docs keep refering to the xfce meta package
[04:44] <jescis> I did use gparted, and unmount a drive in it
[04:45] <zenobius> hunchybunch: like a mosquito to a zapper
[04:45] <marshall> zenobius: yeah, ccsm right?
[04:45] <hdxSfBr> I have installed the restricted extras and VLC and I can't play my avi movies...tried mplayer kmplayer and totem, I get the sound but the  videos all I get is some colorfull vertical lines....HELP?
[04:45] <nickrud> sayers: then you installed php differently I guess. time to install apache2  sudo aptitude install apache2
[04:45] <lewix> how do i restart artsd
[04:45] <ablyss> hdxSfBr: try gxine.. it worked the best for me
[04:45] <zenobius> marshall: yeah. one sec ill turn on my bling
[04:45] <Scunizi> Coffeegrindah: yea i know.. docs leave a lot to be desired..
[04:45] <hunchybunch> zenobius, ive noticed some of them can really suck on the cpu though - depending on the wallpaper
[04:45] <dark__> jescis well that could have had some effect, to be honest im not sure but really if nautilus is working fine and its just that message in the console youre worried about i would ignore it
[04:45] <a_cuozzo> Hello everyone :)
[04:46] <sayers> nickrud, that /appears/ to have worked :)
[04:46] <nickrud> sayers: /appears/ is a good qualifier till you check
[04:46] <jescis> ok done thanks
[04:46] <jbarket> This is a ridiculous question, but I can't figure out what end of my mail setup needs troubleshooting. I can login as a virtual user (postfix/mysql) no problem, but the chdir fails because the directory for that virtual user doesn't exist. I know it has to receive an email first to create the directory, but I've sent one and it hasn't done a damn thing. So, what handles mail when it comes in? postfix, courier, magic mail monkeys?
[04:46]  * zenobius enters bling mode
[04:46] <lusepuster> zenobius, hunchybunch : What animated wallpapers are you talking about? Got me curious
[04:46] <sayers> nickrud, how would i have two sites on this one server?
[04:47] <nickrud> sayers: don't ask me, I helped with a packaging question, not an apache question. I can barely get modrewrite working without hand holding
[04:47] <zenobius> marshall: in ccsm [ general -> desktop-size]
[04:47] <sayers> nickrud, :) okay well thanks then
[04:47] <dark__> proqesi mount /dev/cdrom or mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom (assuming /media/cdrom exists
[04:47] <zenobius> marshall: i guess that should honour your workspace widget in gnome panel...
[04:47] <le> I have installed standard x86 on an AMD Athlon 64 4000+ but now wondering if I should have downloaded the 64bit version?
[04:47] <Scunizi> sayers: you might try #ubuntu-server
[04:47] <zenobius> marshall: i mean it really should, but it doesnt
[04:47] <sp0ro1> nickrud: I'm not sure alt+ctrl+backspace did what we wanted. tty1 shows 3 processes running compared to a huge list that ps -A showed when I ran it after just logging out. I think there is something really wrong going on with that box...like I said, the shutdown button no longer even loads the shutdown options screen.
[04:47] <Scunizi> le: no
[04:47] <__mikem> Seriously, how do you download the alternate install CD?
[04:47] <proqesi> dark__: I just said I did that and it didn't work
[04:47] <hunchybunch> lusepuster, if you were to install elbuntu or geubuntu on ubuntu - you could find out :)  E17 has a way of causing some eye candy animations on the wallpaper
[04:48] <le> Everything seems to work fine, accept that scp causes hard lockup.
[04:48] <Eds> In regards to your laptop statment, I have a Dell XP1210, ubuntu works like a dream, NOTHING doesnt work and it did it by default :)
[04:48] <Rev_Slid3r> has anyone come across the "Your audio capture settings are  invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings.'  error when trying to use sound-recorder?
[04:48] <le>  Scunizi; Tnx.
[04:48] <DanaG> Oh, and exiting pdfedit leaves it sitting there eating CPU.
[04:48] <Scunizi> le np
[04:48] <ablyss> Rev_Slid3r: lol me .. just about 5 minutes ago
[04:48] <le> But trying to scp a file cause hard lockup...?
[04:48] <lusepuster> hunchybunch, Ah, yep been playing w elive
[04:48] <Rev_Slid3r> ablyss: did you fix it?
[04:48] <marshall> zenobius: ok, i set my number of desktops to 4
[04:48] <Scunizi> le  sorry don't have an answer for hat one
[04:48] <ablyss> Rev_Slid3r: so I loaded up VLC to do my audio capturing instead
[04:48] <dark__> proqesi if its playing in VLC then it is mounted
[04:49] <Rev_Slid3r> oh
[04:49] <lusepuster> hunchybunch, yeah those distros look beautiful
[04:49] <Rev_Slid3r> OH
[04:49] <nickrud> sp0ro1: sounds like it. Try creating a new user and logging into that one, see if it works ok
[04:49] <Rev_Slid3r> I could live with that I think
[04:49] <Pie-rate> How can I bind my g15 keys in WoW in WINE? I've tried xbindkeys and xvkbd to send ctrl-f1, ctrl-f2, etc, but the problem with that is it seems to cause WoW to lose focus for an instant, which releases the camera if i'm dragging it with my mouse. this is incredibly annoying and makes it impossible to control properly.
[04:49] <zenobius> lusepuster: check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZovBpvhZbZM
[04:49] <le> I wonder if it will do it if I turn off the Xserver?
[04:49] <proqesi> dark__: I tried it both before and after starting vlc
[04:49] <marshall> zenobius: but i still only have one other desktop when i ctrl+alt+right
[04:49] <le> I think I'll try.
[04:49] <le> and see
[04:49] <FYI> !broadcom 4311
[04:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about broadcom 4311 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:49] <FYI> !broadcom
[04:49] <ubotu> Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[04:49] <sp0ro1> nickrud: Will do
[04:49] <ablyss> Rev_Slid3r: I don't ever use it so didn't really investigate it
[04:49]  * nickrud thinks it's a real waste of time, running games in wine
[04:49] <hunchybunch> lusepuster, ive tried elive too - the stable distro is quite old though :P
[04:50] <zenobius> lusepuster: and this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10kg2aSB8q4
[04:50] <dark__> proqesi but its playing in VLC?
[04:50] <proqesi> nickrud: why do you think that? they work pretty good
[04:50] <proqesi> dark__: yes, it plays in vlc
[04:50] <lusepuster> hunchybunch, yep I'm aware of that... But tried playing w enlightenment, that's the point :)
[04:50] <lusepuster> zenobius, thanks!
[04:50] <nickrud> proqesi: when I want to game, I want to game not tweak an alpha piece of software
[04:50] <zenobius> marshall: does it cube when switching workspaces?
[04:50] <Slyboots> wtf, my Thinkpad keys have stopped working
[04:50] <dibblego> http://rafb.net/p/gInqVk60.html why has my printing stopped working? and why can't I install cupsys?
[04:50] <nickrud> proqesi: and 'pretty good' is not the same as 'how the game was intended'
[04:51] <dark__> proqesi well if its playing, then it is mounted, it should be mounted under /media/CDROM
[04:51] <Slyboots> I used to have "ThinkVantage" key bound to open a terminal window, but its stopped working
[04:51] <proqesi> dark__: nope, nothing is in there or cdrom0
[04:51] <Slyboots> I cant even get the key to register in xbindkeys -k or xev
[04:51] <marshall> zenobius: i think it would if there were more than two sides to the "cube"
[04:51] <hunchybunch> lusepuster, they are going to make more and more stuff for it, but right now you have to use alot of stuff that isn't E17 to get things done..
[04:51] <marshall> zenobius: but its like flipping over a piece of paper atm
[04:51] <nickrud> !info scankeys | Slyboots
[04:51] <ubotu> slyboots: Package scankeys does not exist in gutsy
[04:52] <nickrud> Slyboots: herm, I'll find that package
[04:52] <Slyboots> what does scankeys do?
[04:52] <Slyboots> Show what the keys scancode is on press?
[04:52] <LiraNuna> is dualview with an ATI chipset possible?
[04:52] <zenobius> marshall: ahh piece of paper....
[04:52] <dark__> proqesi do a "mount" command in console and see what it says
[04:52] <zenobius> marshall: love that. one sec
[04:53] <nickrud> Slyboots: that was supposed to be showkey , it shows the raw key data. Then you use setkeycodes , which sets up a code that xev can see
[04:53] <hunchybunch> lusepuster, my point is with that is it makes it heavy - heavier than ubuntu even because of all the mixing of apps
[04:53] <lusepuster> hunchybunch, ...which is what has kept me off it on an everyday basis :-) I have a friend that installed it as his first distro though - that is what I call courage!
[04:53] <zenobius> marshall: also im using amaranths compiz, not the one in feisty repos
[04:53] <hdxSfBr> I have installed the restricted extras and VLC and I can't play my avi movies...tried mplayer kmplayer and totem, I get the sound but the  videos all I get is some colorfull vertical lines....HELP?
[04:53] <gallon_> marshall: try going into CompizConfig Settings Manager. Select general options, then select the desktop size tab. There's an option for horizontal virtual size. Set it to 4.
[04:53] <marshall> zenobius: ok, im using gutsy and i think i got this from the repos
[04:53] <sp0ro1> nickrud: Alright, there is definately something wrong with the GNOME Settings Daemon. A screen just popped up telling me so once I logged onto the new user. :P
[04:53] <lusepuster> hunchybunch, I never thought of that part
[04:53] <proqesi> dark__: it's not listed in mount
[04:53] <marshall> gallon_: ok
[04:53] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: have you search the ubuntu wiki or the help.ubuntu.com/community site first?
[04:54] <nickrud> sp0ro1: did you kill it when you were logged out?
[04:54] <Slyboots> well thats what xev and xbindkeys -k should do
[04:54] <zenobius> marshall: ok tings might be diff, most proly will be
[04:54] <Slyboots> But they dont seem to realise that I am even pressking a key
[04:54] <nickrud> sp0ro1: log out of all users, then killall gnome-settings-daemon
[04:54] <sp0ro1> nickrud: Not to my knowledge, I will now though if you want.
[04:54] <sp0ro1> nickrud: Ok
[04:54] <marshall> zenobius: ok, i got it working, thanks
[04:54] <zenobius> ;)
[04:54] <nickrud> sp0ro1: it would have been one of the things you killed if you did my earlier suggestion
[04:54] <hunchybunch> if they built the os framework with the efiles, it would be a nice os environment
[04:54] <marshall> gallon_: thanks, it worked
[04:54] <heatmzzr> ok, how do I get a program to start automatically using system>preferences>sessions.... when I dont know where to find the program I want to add? the program is wallpapoz by the way.
[04:55] <hdxSfBr> <zenobius: yes and it told me to install all that ....
[04:55] <gallon_> marshall: glad i could help
[04:55] <M43Th>  how can i set the DHCP to forward internet to a GNUbox enabled smartphone?
[04:55] <dark__> proqesi yeh  no just checked my own and its not there either. The thing is though, if VLC is playing the CD then it has been mounted somewhere. check /etc/fstab and see if you can find the mount point in there
[04:55] <slestak> when i go to the ip address of my ubuntu machine running apache2, i get a dir listing showing apache2-default instead of the test page.
[04:55] <Slyboots> I cant even get showkey ot start, throws up an error about.. not finding a file descriptor reffering to this console"
[04:55] <nickrud> heatmzzr: in a terminal, type  which wallpapoz
[04:55] <Slyboots> Whatever the hell that means
[04:55] <zenobius> marshall: i just love how its a live view in expo and expose mode
[04:55] <slestak> ive looked at this prettu close, but do not see what is wring
[04:55] <cabrioleur> heatmzzr, which program
[04:55] <lusepuster> hunchybunch, yep It's brilliant at what it does, but it doesn't do enough
[04:55] <zenobius> marshall: if you have expo plugin default to use it is windowsKey+e
[04:55] <thefallenone> is the ubuntu-restricted-extras package all i need for full media support?
[04:55] <sp0ro1> nickrud: Only processes I killed that were running were gnome-vfs-daemon and gconfd-2
[04:55] <dibblego> http://rafb.net/p/gInqVk60.html ln: accessing `/usr/lib/cups/backend-available/ipp': No such file or directory -- how can I get cupsys working?
[04:55] <jescis> dark__: I did what you said to proqesi, and the drive's mounted
[04:55] <hdxSfBr> <zenobius: i see the pic on the icon on the file browser, but cant play it...
[04:56] <lusepuster> hunchybunch, gtk apps also don't blend in very elegantly, though there are e17 gtk themes
[04:56] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: any luck on those websites?
[04:56] <nickrud> sp0ro1: gnome-settings-daemon wasn't running when you logged out? That's good, but how about now when you log in?
[04:56] <sp0ro1> nickrud: I don't know, even the tty's are stalling now. :(
[04:56] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: are you using gutsy or feisty?
[04:56] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: i searched for it and i did what they said w/ no luck...
[04:56] <sp0ro1> nickrud: I have to reboot that box real quick, hold on.
[04:57] <nickrud> sp0ro1: I gotta go, be back in an hour or so
[04:57] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: maybe i installed too much stuff....
[04:57] <sp0ro1> nickrud: kk thank you for your help.
[04:57] <proqesi> dark__: fstab has the mount point as /media/cdrom0, but I get an error "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0" when I try to mount
[04:57] <thefallenone> is ubuntu-restricted-extras all i need for media support or should i do it manually through livna?
[04:57] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: i sux i can the a pic of the movie on the icon but cant play it....
[04:57] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: maybe, some stuff will conflict/override others...they really should bring up warnings when it does so
[04:58] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: are you using compiz?
[04:58] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: no whats that?
[04:58] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: ie do you have shadows under your windows, or do your windows wobble when dragged, or when you change workspaces does it turn into a 3d cube and spin?
[04:59] <hunchybunch> lusepuster, yea, geubuntu just doesn't look right, even though there is some nice artwork in it.
[04:59] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: what happnes when you press f8 or f9
[04:59] <coz_> geubuntu
[04:59] <proqesi> dark__: ok well maybe I wil try to get a cd ripper to grab the files instead. thanks for trying :)
[04:59] <coz_> wrong text field
[04:59] <danloz> has anybody seen wget hang at "passv"
[04:59] <danloz> Zenobius:  The cube rules.
[05:00] <danloz> the scale function is gangster too
[05:00] <proqesi> danloz: yes, I've seen a few network apps hang when they try passive mode
[05:00] <moad> hello , i have used the terminal yesterday and navigated to the desktop , now when i came back today the terminal was still on desktop , how do i navigate to another place ?
[05:00] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: the windows wobble, nothing happnes with f8 or 9
[05:00] <marshall> zenobius: whats the difference between expo and expose?
[05:00] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: if your running compiz as your window manager thjen it will be most likley interferring with video playback
[05:00] <danloz> Proqesi:  Does that mean the address is shot?  Or try again later?
[05:01] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: ok you need to either : get the videoplayback plugin(worthless in my poinion) or use metacity instead of compiz
[05:01] <coz_> lusepuster, were you planning or have you installed this geubuntu?
[05:01] <hdxSfBr> humm, is this a package under  the synaptic manager?
[05:01] <danloz> I'm trying to download the broadcom driver.  I heard if you manage to get a broad com wireless card working, cannonical sends you a pin.
[05:01] <proqesi> danloz: if you can tell it not to try passive mode, it should work
[05:01] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: first, are you using gnome or kde ?
[05:01] <lusepuster> coz_, no. I'm happy with my Gnome Ubuntu (that I have themed quite heavily)
[05:01] <cabrioleur> danloz, really? I had a buch of them working. What's the pin for.
[05:02] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: gnome
[05:02] <coz_> lusepuster, oh just wondering
[05:02] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: press alt+f2 -> type metacity --replace
[05:02] <danloz> Cabrioleur:  They don't really send you a pin.  But for the pain in the testicles that it is (especially for my n000b self) they ought send me a pin.
[05:02] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: screen will flickr and you will have a simplier window manager taing control of your apps
[05:02] <Noogen> danloz: i think when you read it, it was a typo, more like a pin(g)
[05:02] <lusepuster> coz_, no someone just got me curious talking of animated wallpapers, thought there might be some Compiz stuff going on or something
[05:02] <Noogen> ;)
[05:03] <danloz> LOL.
[05:03] <zenobius> lusepuster: its all e17 themselves
[05:03] <coz_> lusepuster, well no not with e17 running tht is a window manager so compiz fusion cannot be running along with that
[05:03] <zenobius> lusepuster: no xcompmgr or other projects....
[05:03] <Pirate-King> what is a good allaround player?
[05:03] <lusepuster> coz_, zenobius I know that, but I wasn't aware you were talking about e17 when I asked first time :)
[05:03] <hunchybunch> hdxSfBr, you might have to remove emerald also if youve installed it.
[05:03] <heatmzzr> thanks all, (forgot your names) for the help
[05:03] <Pirate-King> tried to install mplayer won't play movies
[05:04] <zenobius> lusepuster: aye
[05:04] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: done... still wont play the dam movie
[05:04] <lusepuster> zenobius, coz_ I ran elive for the first time some 2 years ago :)
[05:04] <cabrioleur> Pirate-King, why?
[05:04] <coz_> lusepuster, well I just heard about this geubuntu as you were talking and took a look at the homepage and noticed e17 running on that :)
[05:04] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: isthere a way to un-install back to the default?
[05:04] <Pirate-King> get an error
[05:04] <cabrioleur> Pirate-King, give me an error, that's a valuable info.
[05:05] <fismoll8> anyone here know what the command is to get a list of channels on freenode-connect?
[05:05] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: try running it with totem, see if it grabs the codecs, waht is the movie type?
[05:05] <proqesi> hrm. cdparanoia seems to read the cd ok as well
[05:05] <Pirate-King> ok
[05:05] <drgonzo00000> when i run cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec I get the following responsecat: /proc/asound/card0/codec#*: No such file or directory
[05:05] <drgonzo00000> any suggestions
[05:05] <msl> fismoll8: can you not /list ?
[05:05] <zenobius> Pirate-King: dont paste it all here, use pastebin
[05:06] <coz_> drgonzo00000, I would suggest that is the wrong command I get the same error
[05:06] <cabrioleur> drgonzo00000, you are sure there is a # at the end?
[05:06] <zenobius> Pirate-King: and post he url to the page here instead
[05:06] <lusepuster> coz_, yep it's a nice project to make an enlightenment-based dist - but, as mentioned before, it's just not complete enough yet IMHO
[05:06] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: avi, I have the totem package selected on the synaptic manager but cant find the program itself, the codect is mped-1
[05:06] <drgonzo00000> i'm not sure
[05:06] <coz_> lusepuster, oh! ok  I may look into this a bit  but it doesnt sound impressinve enough to swtich :)
[05:06] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: sorry man i'm a lammer
[05:06] <drgonzo00000> just trying to get my sound card working
[05:07] <coz_> drgonzo00000, which sound card?
[05:07] <Pirate-King> erro opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo)device
[05:07] <danloz> So is there like a sper uninstall program for ndiswrapper?
[05:07] <proqesi> drgonzo00000: on my machine it's /proc/asound/card0/codec97\#0/ac97\#0-0 - but why do you need to do that?
[05:07] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: if you run totem on a fresh install and load video files up, it should load up synaptics(lite) and grab the required ones for thatvideo
[05:07] <lusepuster> coz_, it's more like traditional Ubuntu w a costum e17 as default desktop, with some nice themes
[05:07] <drgonzo00000> a realtek hd audio that is integrated to my motherboard
[05:07] <cabrioleur> Pirate-King, it's easy. Open gmplayer, go to configuration, video, and change to xv
[05:07] <coz_> lusepuster, oh!  ok
[05:07] <drgonzo00000> the azalia one
[05:07] <hunchybunch> coz_, it is possible to install it on ubuntu though - right along with ubuntu.
[05:08] <Noogen> realtek works great in ubuntu
[05:08] <drgonzo00000> not for me unfortunately
[05:08] <lusepuster> hunchybunch, coz_ yep but I wasn't impressed with that implementation as compared to even an older elive CD
[05:08] <drgonzo00000> i tried installing the new drivers and everything
[05:08] <Pirate-King> now gnome_screensaver_control()
[05:08] <Noogen> both my system are realtek and it works out of the box
[05:08] <coz_> drgonzo00000, did you check in alsamixer to see that nothing is muted?
[05:09] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: am i supposed to see totem in the applications==>sound&video?
[05:09] <cabrioleur> Pirate-King, it should play with this warning.
[05:09] <drgonzo00000> when i click on alsa mixer it tells me that there is no sound device
[05:09] <Pirate-King> hmmm
[05:09] <crimsun> zenobius: by default, yes.  It's Movie Player.
[05:09] <coz_> drgonzo00000, no open a terminal and type   alsamixer
[05:09] <hdxSfBr> zenobius: given i installed the package?
[05:09] <crimsun> zenobius: sorry
[05:09] <coz_> drgonzo00000, it will show you if it recognizes the card by naming it
[05:09] <crimsun> hdxSfBr: by default, yes.  It's Movie Player.
[05:09] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: its supposed to be installed already by deafualt
[05:09] <hunchybunch> lusepuster, elive is really cool, it's just with my ati card - i couldn't get tvout working well enough with that old of kernel, or i probably would have kept it on.
[05:10] <Paladine> anyone know how to make the fonts look ok in OOo and KOffice in 64bit Gutsy
[05:10] <drgonzo00000> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[05:10] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: if you open totem, then use it to open your video, it should grab the required codecs
[05:10] <Paladine> I have no antialiasing at all it looks absolutely terrible
[05:10] <cabrioleur> hunchybunch, isn't e17 still kind of... unstable? Anyway, I don't like eiffel.
[05:10] <Pirate-King> now fatal: Could not initialize video filters (-vf) or video output (-vo)
[05:10] <hdxSfBr> crimsum: humm so totem is the default movie player
[05:10] <coz_> drgonzo00000, ok let me see if i can find any links that talk about this sound card and problems
[05:10] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: otherwise investigate the usage of mediubuntu repositories
[05:11] <javatexan> is 640x480 4:3?
[05:11] <drgonzo00000> thanks coz_ i appreciate it
[05:11] <crimsun> hdxSfBr: it's "crimsun", and, yes.
[05:11] <cabrioleur> Pirate-King, if you changed it to xv and it doesn't work, change it to opengl or xvid.
[05:11] <zenobius> javatexan: could be. is 480 3/4 of 640?
[05:11] <coz_> drgonzo00000, go to http://pastebin.ca and paste the contents of      lsmod  from the terminal then hit submit button and paste the link it gives you here
[05:12] <drgonzo00000> ok
[05:12] <hdxSfBr> crimsum: yeah it opens i get  the the sound but only some crazy vertical graphics...
[05:12] <zenobius> hdxSfBr: http://www.medibuntu.org/
[05:12] <hdxSfBr> crimsum: no error message
[05:13] <hunchybunch> cabrioleur, i thought it was stable enough, it just wasn't that complete, and just a mess of different apps that didn't seem to work that well together
[05:13] <drgonzo00000> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/51742/
[05:13] <Pirate-King> nope tried open gl and xvid
[05:13] <Paladine> anyone know how to make the fonts look ok in OOo and KOffice in 64bit Gutsy, I have no antialiasing
[05:13] <Pirate-King> no go
[05:13] <DanaG> Here's something odd:
[05:13] <DanaG> I just put my iAudio in MTP mode, and yet the usb-storage driver still grabs it (and works!).
[05:14] <scuizi> DanaG: i thought that's the way mtp mode was suppose to work
[05:14] <FYI> alright, I'm about to try this wifi stuff. ubotu's docs are outdated
[05:14] <proqesi> Paladine: I can point you a little in the right direction, but I don't use koffice or openoffice.  xft libs can make them have antialiasing/hinting
[05:14] <darkkith> the future of america, right here, right now.

[05:14] <FYI> :P
[05:14] <hdxSfBr> i'll try the medibuntu thing ehhehehe Thanx crimsun and zenobius for the patience
[05:14] <hunchybunch> Pirate-King, xv should work, and work well - did you install all the restricted extras and wcodecs?
[05:14] <scuizi> FYI: fyi ubutu docs are always out of date.  mostly
[05:15] <Pirate-King> I think so
[05:15] <darkkith> !op me
[05:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about op me - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[05:15] <Pirate-King> totem plays it
[05:15] <Paladine> I have libxft2 already installed
[05:15] <DanaG> I've never used MTP, so I don't have a clue how it's used.
[05:15] <msl> darkkith: I don't see why anyone would ever buy such a thing.  But it may just be me :/
[05:15] <coz_> drgonzo00000, ok looking hold on
[05:15] <FYI> darkkith, I was just playing :D
[05:15] <Paladine> fonts are rendering fine in everything apart from OOo and KOffice
[05:15] <DanaG> (wow, that was a bit redundant-ish.)
[05:15] <coz_> drgonzo00000, is this gutsy?
[05:15] <drgonzo00000> coz_:yes
[05:15] <Paladine> and I am trying to write a paper, but the font is so bad it makes it difficult to read what I am typing
[05:16] <drgonzo00000> 7.1 32 bit edition
[05:16] <darkkith> come on, who doesn't want to be jammin to some tunes when you're lookin to taze
[05:16] <darkkith> that just gets me hot
[05:16] <FYI> Anyone have experience getting the Broadcom 43xx cards to work on Gutsy :)?
[05:16] <worthawholebean> someone ban him plz
[05:16] <coz_> drgonzo00000, ok unfortunaltey for some reason gutsy doesnt support this card it needs a newer alsa driver  but I have a link I believe for you to read hold on
[05:16] <stdin> darkkith: don't abuse the !ops trigger
[05:16] <coz_> drgonzo00000,    ok I believe this is the link   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=551615
[05:16] <FYI> !touchpad > FYI
[05:17] <worthawholebean> I love ubotu's syntax :)
[05:17] <msl> FYI: I have never had a problem with the restricted drivers manager getting it to work
[05:17] <worthawholebean> Everything is a file, including a person.
[05:17] <proqesi> stdin: fortunately he missed it
[05:17] <lusepuster> FYI, did that touchpad command work?
[05:17] <FYI> lusepuster: yes, it did
[05:17] <FYI> lusepuster: I had it send me the link in a PM
[05:17] <stdin> proqesi: and that's the only reason he's still here
[05:18] <lusepuster> FYI, I have been wondering about some TP-related questions, so... thx!
[05:18] <lusepuster> !touchpad > lusepuster
[05:18]  * DanaG loves using touchpad.
[05:18] <Paladine> man this is really bad, I can't work with fonts like this
[05:18] <DanaG> Viva la two-finger-scrolling!
[05:18] <lusepuster> DanaG, how do you get that working?
[05:18] <FYI> I am trying to disable tapping :|... the sensitivity is weird
[05:18] <coz_> drgonzo00000, I think , if you are not used to compiling, that that link may be a pain  but it may also solve your problem   if confused just read through it carefully and if you need further help I would suggest going to  #alsa   I am sure someone there can lend a hand in compiling this new driver
[05:19] <FYI> that was easy enough, onto WiFi
[05:19] <johnficca> how do I enable compiz in my xorg.conf file there is some kind of composite thing missing at the end?
[05:19] <DanaG> Hmm, easiest way: install 'gsynaptics' and add the following line to the Synaptics section of Xorg.conf:
[05:19] <Pirate-King> I installed the codecs but the  restricted extras not sure
[05:19] <AutoMatriX> can somebody tell me how I can remove the 'salmon or pink' color at startup with Gutsy ?
[05:19] <DanaG> Option    "SHMConfig"  "on"
[05:19] <coz_> johnficca, which video card?
[05:19] <lusepuster> DanaG, I've been wanting that for years!
[05:19] <Pirate-King> how do I install them
[05:19] <Ashfire908> how do i shut down alsa? and i mean like the most likey to work way. it's doing it's lockup and refuse to shutdown even when given seg fault etc signals thing it does ever so often.
[05:19] <DanaG> Oh wait, that's for part of it.
[05:20] <DanaG> Hold on, let me find my xorg.conf.
[05:20] <FYI> DanaG, aye... apparently there's a GUI now
[05:20] <FYI> just do: sudo apt-get install gsynaptics
[05:20] <DanaG> http://users.csc.calpoly.edu/~dgoyette/
[05:20] <FYI> then system> preferences > touchpad
[05:20] <DanaG> Look at my xorg.conf, but don't copy it verbatim.
[05:20] <coz_> johnficca,  which video card are you using?
[05:20] <lusepuster> DanaG, no I won't do that...
[05:20] <DanaG> I have 1-finger-tap=nothing 2-finger-tap=middle 3-finger-tap=right.
[05:20] <coz_> johnficca, also you may want to go to #compiz-fusion for this
[05:20] <danloz> Alright.  How do I completely uninstall Ndiswrapper?
[05:20] <proqesi> Ashfire908: a segfault isn't a signal, but a program crashing
[05:21] <danloz> #2:  When I reinstall NDISwrapper
[05:21] <johnficca> coz_: my video card is ati radeon x600
[05:21] <FYI> Anyone have experience with Broadcom 43xx cards on Gutsy?
[05:21] <cabrioleur> danloz, normal way + remove links in modprobe.d
[05:21] <hunchybunch> AutoMatriX, i changed mine to black yesterday, I can't remember the file i changed though :P lemme look real quick
[05:21] <danloz> FYI:  that's what I'm doing right now.
[05:21] <cabrioleur> FYI, sure: ndiswrapper
[05:21] <danloz> FYI:  Prepare to hate your life and rue the day.
[05:21] <msl> FYI: I have never had a problem with the restricted drivers manager getting bcm43xx to work
[05:21] <coz_> johnficca, ok then I would suggest #compiz-fusion and talk with adamk or crdlb about ati situations   adamk is not online at the moment but I believe crdlb is
[05:22] <cabrioleur> danloz, why, it's eaaaaasy.
[05:22] <danloz> Cabrioleur:  As a complete n00b, I don't know what the normal way is.
[05:22] <FYI> danloz: i know, this is my 4th "fresh" install of ubuntu in 2 days... following random instructions on the internet is NOT a good idea :). So I came here for more details :)
[05:22] <danloz> FYI:  Welcome to my club
[05:22] <cabrioleur> danloz, why do you want to uninstall ndiswrapper?
[05:22] <danloz> 2 fresh installs, one laptop bricking.
[05:22] <cabrioleur> danloz, instead, use ndiswrapper -r option.
[05:22] <johnficca> coz_: I think I found it is it this that I needed "Section "Extensions"   Option "Composite" "Enable"  EndSection"
[05:23] <crimsun> drgonzo00000: please pastebin the output from `lspci -nv`
[05:23] <coz_> johnficca, ok cool! :)
[05:23] <crimsun> drgonzo00000: afterward, tell me the url
[05:23] <danloz> Cabrioleur:  I've followed random interwebz instructions and I've completely fragged it.  It doesn't work.  Sudo apt-get blah-common doesn't do anything, ndiswrapper -whatever says it's never seen it before
[05:23] <FYI> danloz, what is your laptop model?
[05:23] <danloz> And the restricted driver makes my computer slow down.
[05:23] <danloz> I let a friend ssh into my pc
[05:24] <danloz> and he said that the Colonial generates a lot of messages because of that firmware
[05:24] <cabrioleur> danloz, wow, then dpkg -r ndiswrapper
[05:24] <danloz> FYI:  F730us.
[05:24] <DanaG> Oh yeah, rightedge sets where the vscroll boundary is.
[05:24] <proqesi> danloz: that's one of the reasons those drivers are restricted
[05:24] <FYI> danloz: F572us here :D
[05:24] <cabrioleur> danloz, as root/sudo
[05:24] <DanaG> Find that through trial and error by doing the following when in X:
[05:24] <danloz> The Colonel dpkg -r ndiswrapper
[05:24] <Ashfire908> proqesi: erm core thing
[05:24] <hunchybunch> AutoMatriX, you can change that color in  sudo gedit /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default
[05:24] <DanaG> synclient RightEdge=5950
[05:25] <DanaG> and try scrolling with the edge.  If it doesn't work, or the edge is too far left, decrease or increase the value, respectively, and try again.
[05:25] <lusepuster> DanaG, what are those 'tapbutton1' etc about?
[05:25] <cabrioleur> danloz, actually, dpkg --purge ndiswrapper would be better I think.
[05:25] <AutoMatriX> hunchybunch, thanks, going to have a look at it now ;)
[05:25] <nik_> anyone know anything about drivers?
[05:25] <DanaG> That's my magic multi-finger tapping.
[05:25] <DanaG> I have 1-finger-tap=nothing 2-finger-tap=middle 3-finger-tap=right.
[05:25] <cabrioleur> nik_, sure, I merried one.
[05:25] <proqesi> !anyone | nik_
[05:26] <danloz> Cabrioleur:  that bash thing says it's not installed
[05:26] <ubotu> nik_: 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?
[05:26] <danloz> but it is
[05:26] <john_> hola
[05:26] <john_> hola
[05:26] <cabrioleur> danloz, did you install from sources?
[05:26] <hunchybunch> AutoMatriX, change this line to 0's like this  BACKCOLOR="#000000"
[05:26] <nik_> cabrioleur:  hehheh
[05:26] <danloz> That sounds like a process that is far beyond my level
[05:26] <DanaG> (Who needs OS "Ten, not X"?
[05:27] <john_> de donde es
[05:27] <hunchybunch> AutoMatriX, it's at the end of the file under  if [ "x$BACKCOLOR" = "x" ]; then
[05:27] <nik_> its ok
[05:27] <DanaG> in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom
[05:27] <nik_> i need english neways
[05:27] <captaincrunch> john_: de santo domingo, republica dominicana
[05:28] <john_> huy lejos
[05:28] <danloz> Cabrioleur:  First through the package manager and then then I tried it through make install - screwed up finally with apt get.
[05:28] <danloz> So yes,
[05:28] <DanaG> [greeter]                 GraphicalThemedColor=#404040             BackgroundColor=#404040    (replace big spaces with line breaks)
[05:28] <captaincrunch> john_: y tu de donde?
[05:28] <proqesi> Ashfire908: get the process id and use the kill command to quit it. make sure you read the kill manpage first, and be *careful*
[05:28] <john_> colombia
[05:28] <nik_> I need help trying to figure out what kind of sound card i have
[05:28] <cabrioleur> danloz, go to the directory from which you did make install and type "sudo make uninstall"
[05:28] <lusepuster> DanaG, ah sure, yeah I tried it once but found it too unstable/unpredictable
[05:28] <john_> que version de ubuntu tienes
[05:28] <mosno> is there a commandline frontend for things like: cat  /var/lib/dpkg/info/PACKAGENAME.{pre,post}inst ?
[05:29] <captaincrunch> john_: ta un poco lejos tambien :P
[05:29] <Ashfire908> proqesi: i can't find the process
[05:29] <DanaG> I think the 2-finger scrolling has been fixed recently.
[05:29] <captaincrunch> john_: gutsy gibbon
[05:29] <DanaG> In fact, now I can't 2-finger middle-drag, since it ALWAYS scrolls if you drag two fingers.
[05:29] <john_> supongo que la 7.10
[05:29] <captaincrunch> john_: si
[05:29] <captaincrunch> john_: y tu?
[05:29] <proqesi> nik_: lspci should tell you
[05:29] <john_> oye eres hombre o mujer
[05:29] <john_> yo tengo
[05:29] <tritium> !es
[05:29] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[05:29] <john_> 7.04
[05:29] <proqesi> Ashfire908: then maybe you don't have an alsa process running
[05:29] <FYI> I tried already tritium
[05:30] <nik_> proqesi: do i type lspci in terminal?
[05:30] <john_> 7.04 feisty
[05:30] <bkar> which among the stage1.5 would be used if am my / filesystem is ext3 ?
[05:30] <tritium> captaincrunch, john_: English, please
[05:30] <captaincrunch> john_: la mujere no andan por estos predios :P, tan en la dicoteca o en otro tipo de chat :)
[05:30] <phoul> has anyone tried Avant window navigator
[05:30] <lusepuster> DanaG, I need only edit the two TwoFingerScroll options into my Xorg.comf, right?
[05:30] <cabrioleur> phoul, yes
[05:30] <john_> una pregunta
[05:30] <Ashfire908> how does alsa work is alsa has no process?
[05:30] <DanaG> Yeah.
[05:30] <proqesi> nik_: yes
[05:30] <phoul> Is it worth installing?
[05:30] <AutoMatriX> hunchybunch, thanks, again ;)
[05:30] <mosno> phoul: i would if i didn't have to build it for Gutsy
[05:30] <bkar> which among the stage1.5 would be used if  my / filesystem is ext3 ?
