[19:59] <bobertdos> gottabeandrew: When you're running it in the terminal, how are you typing the command?
[19:59] <Fryguy--> goldbond: that's the primary partition that marks the beginning of logical partitions, it's not mountable
[19:59] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, are you using firefox3?
[19:59] <Eric7> how would i disable ./configure not to use kde
[19:59] <ubuntugeek> yes, but i also tried to use opera and it's not uploading too
[19:59] <eth01> ikonia: you on OC btw?
[19:59] <goldbond> Fryguy: it is very large. it is half the drive
[19:59] <santor> i have tried all the setting in gnome volume control and none of them allow me to turn off sound to the laptop speaker and still have the headphones on
[19:59] <matthew__> ikonia: are you sure? because my cron.daily is set to run at 6AM ish, and my computer is never on at that time (unless I forget to turn it off), are you saying those scripts are never executed?
[19:59] <Cyrus25801> djhash: let me try that
[19:59] <rakan> Hello, can i setup GEdit's "Run Command" to run something like ./"{Current_FileName}????
[19:59] <eth01> ubuntugeek: you didn't answer my question?
[19:59] <bobertdos> gottabeandrew: You have to open a separate terminal window to do this properly.
[19:59] <ikonia> matthew__: correct
[20:00] <Fryguy--> goldbond: maybe i am wrong. need an error message
[20:00] <ikonia> eth01: OC ?
[20:00] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, do you have a firewall ruunning?
[20:00] <ubuntugeek> sorry, the lik that u gave me is not laoding
[20:00] <eth01> ikonia: overclockers?
[20:00] <jack> hilight_nick_matches = ON
[20:00] <ikonia> eth01: oooh, I think I was a long time ago
[20:00] <eth01> ubuntugeek: k
[20:00] <Eric7> disable the KDE gui, reconfigure using --enable-gui=<list-of-guis> i put kde in the list to disable or do the stuff i want enabled go  there?
[20:00] <offset> Eric7: ./configure --enable-gui=gtk
[20:00] <Eric7> k tyvm
[20:00] <eth01> ikonia: yeah?
[20:00] <ubuntugeek> no, i didn't touch the firewall, thaught it was off by default in ubuntu
[20:00] <eth01> :-)
[20:01] <eth01> ubuntugeek: is the DNS internal?
[20:01] <legend2440> Coggz: is it a webcam or camera?
[20:01] <matthew__> ikonia: would it be safe to set a backup job to be started based on run levels? or would the job happen way to often?
[20:01] <goldbond> Fryguy--:  nm. i think you are right.
[20:01] <goldbond> thanks
[20:01] <ikonia> matthew__: how would you set a backup job to be based on runlevles ?
[20:01] <ikonia> matthew__: you only ever boot into run level 2 in ubuntu
[20:01] <matthew__> ikonia: put a backup script into the runlevel 2 thing then
[20:02] <santor> i'm glad you're so helpful in here, i guess i'll upgrade to 8.04 this weekend and hope it fixes it!
[20:02] <ubuntugeek> don't, we have dns, buty i don't what iternal means :D
[20:02] <ikonia> matthew__: oh, so you mean take a backup at boot time, thats not the best idea
[20:02] <ikonia> matthew__: why not just have a script that you run when you want
[20:02] <gottabeandrew> ok, i downloaded flash player 9. the 2 files i have are flashplayer-installer which, when i double click it gives me the option to run in terminal display, cancel or run. i also have a file called libflashplayer.so. it doesn't know what to do with the .so file and when i try and run the flashplayer-installer in terminal, it doesn't do anything. these files are both in andrew/downloads/flash/install_flash_player_9_linux so what do
[20:02] <gottabeandrew> i need to know what to type into the terminal window.
[20:02] <matthew__> ikonia: because I'll forget :(
[20:02] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> iz there a music-applet for amarok?
[20:02] <eth01> ubuntugeek: local ip addresses, such as <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS> etc
[20:02] <eth01> non-routable.
[20:02] <trashguy> gottabeandrew, put the .so file in mozillas plugin dir
[20:03] <LieZ^> i tried the command 'startx' and got a fatal server error, could not connect to X server no such process errno 3, any ideas?
[20:03] <ikonia> matthew__: I'd not advise it as a boot option
[20:03] <gottabeandrew> and what do i do with the other file
[20:03] <ikonia> matthew__: just try to select a time when your PC is normally on
[20:03] <trashguy> disregard
[20:03] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: look at /var/log/Xorg.log
[20:03] <LieZ^> k
[20:03] <bobertdos> gottabeandrew: May I PM you?
[20:03] <gottabeandrew> yes
[20:03] <ubuntugeek> it has local ip, so i think that he is indeed iternal
[20:03] <gottabeandrew> infact, could somebody remote control my system and get it working for me?
[20:03] <eth01> whats the IP just to make sure?
[20:03] <gottabeandrew> because it would be a lot faster than me coming back and forwards between you with the latest questions and updates
 ubuntugeek: local ip addresses, such as <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS> etc  <-- <IP_ADDRESS> is NOT an RFC 1918 ip address eth01
[20:03] <trashguy> gottabeandrew, it is a simple task
[20:04] <Billll> alright, I typed "netstat -r" into terminal to see local connectino and I see nothing, but in network wirless conenction I was able to see my modeom and latency of conenction.... IS this a driver issue with the wireless card?
[20:04] <eth01> snmpee: it is in my network, sorry!
[20:04] <gottabeandrew> trashguy: how do i do it then
[20:04] <snmpee> eth01 <IP_ADDRESS>-<IP_ADDRESS>
[20:04] <eth01> and er my network spans across the whole UK :-)
[20:04] <Fryguy--> gottabeandrew: i can help you if you want
[20:04] <LieZ^> @fryguy theres nothing in the log?
[20:04] <trashguy> gottabeandrew, download the tar.gz format
[20:04] <Cyrus25801> djhash: it askes to download off the other pc aswell
[20:04] <matthew__> ikonia: the problem is that that sorta varies, what with school, summer, yadda yadda yadda. What would making it as a boot option do though? If I set it to run in the background, it shouldn't massively increase my boot time, and if I have it overwrite the old backup, it should fill my drive, even if I restart a few to many times.
[20:04] <eth01> goody for you, not here to debate that.
[20:05] <snmpee> then your network is not RFC 1918 compliant which is squirrley
[20:05] <gottabeandrew> yes
[20:05] <eth01> snmpee: enough to get ISP of the year for 2006.
[20:05] <ikonia> matthew__: then I suggest a postit note on your monitor saying "take a backup"
[20:05] <jack> How can I view all channel
[20:05] <Fryguy--> jack: /list
[20:05] <snmpee> eth01 ISP of the year, what the heck is that lol
[20:05] <jack> thx
[20:06] <eth01> you'd know if you were a valued customer.
[20:06] <matthew__> ikonia: that looks ugly. ( I know i'm being picky), what be the negative aspects of setting it as a boot option?
[20:06] <snmpee> eth01 who made up that award, the international house of pancakes?
[20:06] <Billll> alright, I typed "netstat -r" into terminal to see local connectino and I see nothing, but in network wirless conenction I was able to see my modeom and latency of conenction.... IS this a driver issue with the wireless card?
[20:06] <eth01> er, ISPA, PC Advisor?
[20:06] <ikonia> matthew__: well, it would have to complete a backup before it would boot, so you'd have a massive lag
[20:06] <illogic-al> oh. and this mother board doesn't have support for sata drives either,
[20:06] <ikonia> matthew__: plug you'd have to position it correct so everything was mounted and running for the backup to happen
[20:06] <eth01> The Sunday Times, hm..Broadband Choices Award ...
[20:06] <djzn> hi, how do I configure in Nautilus, to have a fixed icon for any MP3 file, or any filetype???
[20:07] <matthew__> ikonia: I could make it run in the background after all the other level 2 scripts
[20:07] <snmpee> eth01: are they also the official ISP of the 2008 summer olympics polevaulting team?
[20:07] <eth01> afraid not.
[20:07] <ikonia> matthew__: that depends on the init scripts being sucessful, again your welcome to do it, but not how I'd manage it
[20:07] <snmpee> eth01 then what use is it
[20:07] <The_ManU_212> hi i get often segmentation faults with blender and thudnerbird
[20:07] <The_ManU_212> what to do
[20:08] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: segfaults normally pretty fatal
[20:08] <The_ManU_212> the program crashes and after a reboot it is often possible to work normaly
[20:08] <eth01> snmpee: nothing..
[20:08] <Fryguy--> The_ManU_212: probably stop overclocking your machine
[20:08] <djhash> Cyrus25801: I'm sorry.. whatever the problem is.. seems to be beyond than just configuration problem.. something happened from the last time it worked to this time that messed up everything.. Ask around here more and see if someone can help you more.. again.. sorry..
[20:08] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: without fobbing you off, the most common cause is overclocking or bad ram,
[20:08] <The_ManU_212> Fryguy--: nothing overclocked
[20:08] <jsmjsm> need help with RF switch.. running Ubuntu Linux on a Sony Vaio.. the physical switch on the wireless card is inoperable
[20:08] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: unless you have manually updated packages
[20:08] <matthew__> ikonia: yeah, I was guessing that would be your answer. "You _can_ do it, but i'm not going to help you if you fail badly"
[20:08] <LieZ^> theres nothing in my /var/log/xorg.log any ideas?
[20:08] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: only wine rep others default
[20:08] <eth01> ikonia: could be a dodgey cpu too
[20:08] <ikonia> matthew__: I didn't say that, no no no, I'll certainly help if you have issues
[20:09] <ikonia> eth01: yes, very true
[20:09] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: it's /var/log/Xorg.log
[20:09] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: again - not a fob off, but the most common cause is hardware
[20:09] <snmpee> eth01 if they use 172.50.x.x those are routable IP's. i should hope they aren't using those externally, and using them internally is kind of silly too because there's bound to be an accidental crossover by human error eventually
[20:09] <Billll> alright, I typed "netstat -r" into terminal to see local connectino and I see nothing, but in network wirless conenction I was able to see my modeom and latency of conenction.... IS this a driver issue with the wireless card or a router issue?
[20:09] <eth01> hardware is bad sometimes. try and RMA it. (if that is the case)
[20:09] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok so it is possible that it is the ram, what should i do, the mem test in grub menu?
[20:09] <The_ManU_212> how to find out currupt hardware
[20:09] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: memtest for a good few hours is always a good shout
[20:09] <eth01> snmpee: please don't tell me how to run a network.
[20:09] <matthew__> ikonia: yeah, I was sorta exagerating
[20:09] <Cyrus25801> djhash: thanx for the help
[20:10] <LieZ^> fryguy: still nothing :(
[20:10] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[20:10] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: then you are missing a part of your X11 install.  I don't know what it could be.
[20:10] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: how many hours
[20:10] <djzn> is there any way to configure file types in NAUTILUS? I want to have a certain icon for mp3 files
[20:10] <snmpee> well actually they could use them externally all they like, it's just you said those were internal IP's. are they somehow NAT'd that way?
[20:10] <trashguy> physical errors ore any SAs bane
[20:10] <eth01> snmpee: it's a meaningless pointless useless IP assigned to those like myself when remote
[20:10] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: you'll see a menu that says "passes" let it do at least 3 complete passes
[20:10] <eth01> just makes a few things easier, thats all ;)
 ubuntugeek: local ip addresses, such as <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS> etc
 non-routable.
[20:10] <matthew__> ikonia: hmm, for some reason I can't right click anymore, and I haven't even done anything. >.< I think my system is warning me not to make the backup start at boot.
[20:10] <snmpee> eth01 <IP_ADDRESS> is indeed routable
[20:10] <eth01> snmpee: please move on.
[20:11] <eth01> #defocus if you want to continue it
[20:11] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok and when i get errors? which ram it is i have 2 512mb
[20:11] <eth01> or #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:11] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: you should see it on the screen
[20:11] <snmpee> lol you're one of those who doesn't like to be corrected
[20:11]  * trashguy routes his class a
[20:11] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok thx and if the ram is ok?
[20:11] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: then we can work it through in more detail, lets remove the obvious/easy first
[20:11] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: i make always fsck after 30 mlounts and all seems to be fine
[20:11] <eth01> ikonia: *rolls eyes* :P
[20:11] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok
[20:11] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: fsck is nothing
[20:12] <Fryguy--> <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:12] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: i'll be back and report you
[20:12] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: if I'm not around there are plenty in the channel to help
[20:12] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: why is fsck nothiung?
[20:12] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok
[20:12] <eth01> 172.*** is used internally imo
[20:12] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: it's a disk check - nothing more
[20:12] <The_ManU_212> cu
[20:13] <eth01> we don't care if it's RFC compliant, so long as it works.
[20:13] <Fryguy--> eth01: not according to the specification for the IP protocol
[20:13] <Pici> !ot
[20:13] <LieZ^> can i pm someone?
[20:13] <trashguy> i run a 10.x /23 and /24 depneding for vlan needs
[20:13] <EhPrettyEasy> DCC SEND ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZLOLOWNEDPLZTHX
[20:13] <ikonia> LieZ^: just ask your question in the channelk
[20:13] <Pici> !traffic
[20:14] <Tem|laptop> lol @ exploiting DCC send bugs in lousy clients to blow them up
[20:14] <Danskmand> Santor: Thanks for this !! - I am busy reading and downloading ;-)
[20:14] <ikonia> Tem|laptop: why even mention it - please read what ubottu just said
[20:14] <LieZ^> i have gdm and gnome installed however when i vnc i still only have command line
[20:15] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: is vncserver running on a spearate virtual display?
[20:16] <Tem|laptop> ikonia, it amuses me that people still bother with that kind of griefing.  That's why I mention it.
[20:16] <LieZ^> thats what i cant work out i followed a guide in the forums and i think it is running on the remote display however i cant access that
[20:16] <ikonia> Tem|laptop: it's nothing to do with the channel, so best not to mention it in future
[20:17] <linduxed> hey guys, i just rebooted my comp because i got a window about HAL not responding (so i thought that it was a minor issue, even though killing and restarting the X-server didnt fix it). After reboot i get kernel panic with messages telling that it cant access RAMDISK, stuff about VFS and something about boot (just remember that word). Any idea what to do?
[20:17] <ikonia> linduxed: get an exact note of the error and let us know what it is
[20:18] <will02> what would be the easiest vnc server to set up? preferrably with a gui
[20:18] <CostaRicanQuaker> hey there, i have a problem i ahve a mounted ntsf partition, the icon that shortcuts to the file where i download stuff when i'm on windows is there but there are some new files that aren't showing up
[20:18] <CostaRicanQuaker> what's the issue?
[20:18] <CostaRicanQuaker>  how do i check if the partition's mounted properly?
[20:18] <jimqode> hello,  does anybody know how to specify the duration of a still image in kino?
[20:19] <linduxed> ikonia: then you
[20:19] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your downloading shortcuts to the ntfs partition, not the file from what your saying
[20:19] <ikonia> jimqode: a still image is just that - an image
[20:19] <trashguy> will02, real men use the shell
[20:19] <ikonia> jimqode: how can you have a duration of a still image
[20:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: that's the shortcut i have
[20:19] <linduxed> ikonia: then you'd have to wait for me to reboot
[20:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> to the my stuff file
[20:19] <jimqode> ikonia, kino is a video editor
[20:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> which is on my wwindows ntsf partition
[20:19] <ikonia> linduxed: sure
[20:19] <ikonia> jimqode: I know - hence why I'm asking about a still image ?
[20:20] <will02> trashguy, i know, i use it, but my friend needs to set one up, hes been using linux for all of 2 months
[20:20] <jimqode> ikonia, suppose you want to make a slide show? or a title?
[20:20] <linduxed> ikonia :any general idea though?
[20:20] <ikonia> linduxed: I need the error
[20:20] <ikonia> jimqode: the questoin was the duration of a "still image" ?? I'd like an explination of that
[20:20] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how do i check if the partition is properly mountaed?
[20:21] <CostaRicanQuaker> i went to the directory where the partition is supsoed to be and when i open the directory of it it shows empty
[20:21] <legend2440> CostaRicanQuaker: in terminal type   mount?
[20:21] <trashguy> will02, i belive it is as easy enabling remote desktop under system > prefrences
[20:21] <jimqode> ikonia, duration of the still image means the time that image is shown in the movie
[20:21] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: type "mount" and see if the file system is mounted
[20:21] <ikonia> jimqode: ahh so the time position of the image
[20:22] <jimqode> ikonia, time  position is "when" it is shown. What i want to change is "for what time" it is shown
[20:22] <jimqode> ikonia, or how long
[20:22] <ikonia> jimqode: ahh so a slide show for example, show for 10 seconds
[20:22] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i got the following, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25763/ what do i do?
[20:23] <Storrgie> is there a good ISO creating utility for ubuntu?
[20:23] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: I dont see any ntfs partitions
[20:23] <ikonia> Storrgie: mkisofs
[20:23] <jimqode> ikonia, yes. that's what mean
[20:23] <ikonia> jimqode: thank you, that makes sense
[20:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia@ i just remembered, i reinstalled windows since i had mounted the ntsf partition
[20:24] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: ok ?
[20:24] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: does that change anything?
[20:24] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: probably, you'll need to re-moount it
[20:25] <LieZ^> how do i tell what virtual display VNC is running on?
[20:25] <Reformer81> Okay, this is seriously infuriating.  Ever since installing Hardy, I've had intense sound issues.  Once I use an application to play sound (usually Firefox and Flash), the entire sound system just stops working (tried using Pulse and ALSA).  Not even restarting X helps, I'm forced to reboot just to get my sound back.  Could someone please help me trouble-shoot this??
[20:25] <Reformer81> I've tried the whole "kill" Pulsa, ALSA, etc...
[20:25] <leeping2007> Reformer81, have you tried lsof and looking for what programs are using /dev/snd?
[20:26] <Storrgie> is there any good graphical iso creation tools in linux?
[20:26] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok, how do i a)check for which /dev/hda*  is the ntsf partition on, b) how do i mount it c)mount it meaning that everytime i reboot it will be there and i will be able to open it regardless of which desktop environment i log in, gnome, kde, or xubuntu
[20:26] <Reformer81> leeping2007: I'd love too, but its a LOT of info and |grep isn't working for it.
[20:27] <leeping2007> It's not?? How strange .. how about redirecting it to a file and searching it with emacs?
[20:27] <kokand> Hello everyone
[20:27] <v^x^y> hi
[20:27] <Reformer81> leeping2007: Nevermind, it's working...
[20:27] <leeping2007> :)
[20:28] <Reformer81> leeping2007: Mixerapp is the only thing using /dev/snd.
[20:28] <BlueColibri> storrgie wath about isomaster
[20:28] <Debian_Noobie> is there a java irc?
[20:28] <Reformer81> leeping2007: mixer_app  6142     nathan   20u      CHR      116,0              12437 /dev/snd/controlC0
[20:29] <leeping2007> Reformer81, I think mixerapp is just the volume control, but I'd kill it anyway and see if it works
[20:29] <Gat0rvean> does Kubuntu work with compiz? or just Ubuntu?
[20:29] <kokand> can u explain me how can i disable startup servises in ubuntu. Previously I've used fedora... and things were simple. Any advice?
[20:29] <matthew__> anyone know of backup software that will only copy what has changed? Because I really don't want to have to copy over 30GB of files every time I backup my home dir.
[20:29] <lizards> Hey i just made big mistake, i was messing around and accidently unchecked "gdm". After that i was looking at a fullscreen terminal, when i boot i am promted to login and it's just a terminal. How can i fix this :P?
[20:30] <lizards> right now i'm using a live CD
[20:30] <chuy_max> is there a way for grub to automatically detect my operative systems?
[20:30] <offset> matthew__: rsync?
[20:31] <Reformer81> leeping2007: No, that didn't do it either.
[20:31] <v^x^y> what are all these programs GUI made with ?
[20:31] <darrend> matthew__: rsnapshot (it's based on rsync and gives you nice time-series backups using hard-links)
[20:31] <Storrgie> is there any free graphical iso tools in linux?
[20:31] <bayar> hello
[20:31] <IndyGunFreak> Storrgie: to make isos or burn them?
[20:32] <Storrgie> create iso's from disk
[20:32] <Reformer81> chuy_max: Grub automaticaly detects them when it is installed.
[20:32] <Darknezz> easy question. how do you turn off x server?
[20:32] <bayar> what is the command to reinstall apache2 with confmiss
[20:32] <Reformer81> Storrgie: You could just run "cp /media/cdrom/ disc.iso"
[20:32] <IndyGunFreak> Storrgie: i think there's a couple of programs for creating ISOs,
[20:32] <iplaythisgame> lizards, sudo gdm start
[20:33] <Reformer81> Storrgie: Since all devices are treated as files in Linux, you can simply copy the disc to an .ISO file :)
[20:33] <darrend> Darknezz: sudo invoke-rc.d stop gdm
[20:33] <Storrgie> well i have been having an issue with movies

[20:34] <chuy_max> Reformer81, maybe dpkg-reconfigure?
[20:34] <Reformer81> chuy_max: Yeah, enter them into your menu.lst file manually.
[20:34] <Reformer81> chuy_max: You realize that setting up grub again takes a whole 2 minutes to do, right?
[20:34] <chuy_max> Reformer81, I dont want to do that either
[20:35] <bombshelter13> No one knows where to add static routes?
[20:35] <rickasdf> wooow
[20:35] <Reformer81> chuy_max: Then I'm afraid you're out of options.
[20:35] <chuy_max> Reformer81, as Im swapping hard disks all the time
[20:35] <rickasdf> this is a big channel

[20:42] <alphaman1101> supybot
[20:42] <alphaman1101> thats what i wanted
[20:42] <linduxed2> oh and the messages are written just so you get the general idea of the messsage
[20:42] <Darknezz> i want to install nvidia drivers and its telling me that x server is running and it says to exit x before installing. how would i doo that?
[20:42] <ikonia> Darknezz: whats wrong with the drivers from ubuntu
[20:42] <darrend> Darknezz: how are you trying to install them?
[20:42] <Reaper> How can I install a .rpm application?
[20:43] <rausb0> Reaper: man rpm

[20:43] <darrend> Reaper: don't try unless you really know what you're doing :)
[20:43] <Reformer81> ugh... I'll just reboot then.  I've been asking for help with this issue since April, but no one else knows anything about it.  And Pulse was supposed to "fix" this problem (that I never had with ALSA)
[20:43] <ikonia> illogic-al: I'll have a look
[20:43] <Reaper> Aha..
[20:43] <Chaotic_Descent> Is there a way to change my Ubuntu account name?
[20:43] <xpLORE> hello all
[20:43]  * rausb0 resists !flood | ubottu :<
[20:43] <Reaper> Well it's actually, Limewire.
[20:43] <chris_> how do i install the wolfenstein enemy territory .run
[20:43] <rausb0> Reaper: http://frostwire.com
[20:43] <ikonia> chris_: make it executable and run it
[20:43] <chris_> how do i do that
[20:43] <Reformer81> Reaper: Yeah, I definitely recommend Frostwire too.
[20:44] <leeping2007> Reformer81, sorry :/ Good luck with finding a solution
[20:44] <Darknezz> darrend: yes
[20:44] <Reaper> But yet, I don't know how to manually install, rausb0 .
[20:44] <Reformer81> leeping2007: Thanks for your help, though
[20:44] <offset> chris_: chmod a+x *.run; ./*.run
[20:44] <xpLORE> install wine, then just run the executable
[20:44] <xpLORE> sudo apt-get install wine in terminal
[20:44] <meatpuppet> chris_ go into a console and type : sh installername.run
[20:44] <darrend> Darknezz: yes what?
[20:44] <rausb0> Reaper: Click the download for Frostwire and run it ..
[20:44] <sayotte> hm
[20:44] <Reformer81> Reaper: www.frostwire.com has a downloadable package for Ubuntu.  Just click on the link and follow the instructions.
[20:44] <chris_> meatpuppet i got an error when i did it with sudo sh.
[20:45] <linduxed2> ikonia ?
[20:45] <Reaper> Okay, Reformer81 .
[20:45] <ikonia> linduxed2: yes ?
[20:45] <ericpersson> and after feisty comes gutsy, right?
[20:45] <rausb0> Reaper: http://main2.frostwire.com/frostwire/4.13.5/frostwire-4.13.5.i586.deb
[20:45] <linduxed2> did you read the messages ikonia?

[20:45] <ikonia> linduxed2: what message ?
[20:45] <Darknezz> ikonia: i installed CS on wine and i can only play on software mode and not on openGL and i was reading a forum saying to instal the nvidia drivers.
[20:45] <Reaper> Thanks...

[20:45] <ikonia> Darknezz: there are drivers already installed with ubuntu, what video card do you have
[20:45] <bobertdos> quick question, is nspluginwrapper EXCLUSIVELY available for the 64-bit build??
[20:45] <v^x^y> Every computer user should be able to use their software in the language of their choice.
[20:46] <ikonia> meatpuppet: don't use caps, sudo is supported and recommended
[20:46] <Reformer81> Maybe this will help.  When I lose my sound and have to reboot to get it back, I've tried running System -> Preferences -> Sound and clicking on "Test."  This is the error I get at that point: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[20:46] <Reaper> rausb0: I'd still need you for manual installation, which I don't have a clue about...
[20:46] <meatpuppet> OK ikonia
[20:46] <Darknezz> darrend: sorry miss read it. i downloaded the drivers from nvidia website
[20:46] <rausb0> !caps | meatpuppet
[20:46] <ikonia> meatpuppet: thanks
[20:46] <Chousuke> ikonia: not for that purpose
[20:46]  * rausb0 lols at that
[20:46] <offset> Is anyone familiar with how to disable modules for the livecd. It keeps trying to enable my firewire port and hangs.
[20:46] <rausb0> Reaper: Why do you need me?
[20:46] <Darknezz> ikonia: i have a nvidia 6600
[20:46] <Reaper> rausb0: Add/Remove | Synaptic - is all I know by far....heh
[20:46] <ikonia> Darknezz: that is supported with the nvidia-glx package
[20:46] <Reaper> rausb0: Even when reading the readme files, I get into sorta problems.
[20:46] <ikonia> Chousuke: I didn't see the context - what was the contxt
[20:46] <Reaper> But I'll try.
[20:46] <rausb0> Reaper: Did you click "Run" when you downloaded it?
[20:46] <ikonia> context even
[20:46] <joaopinto> Reaper, to install a .deb, you just need to click on it from your browser
[20:47] <darrend> Darknezz: don't do that
[20:47] <Chousuke> ikonia: well I only saw "sudo sh"
[20:47] <Reformer81> Reaper: When you click to download that link, Firefox will ask you to open it with the default application (GDebi).  Go with that.
[20:47] <meatpuppet> so automount a volume requires me to manually edit fstab?
[20:47] <v^x^y> what is firefox made of?
[20:47] <Reformer81> Reaper: Once that opens, just click "Install Package"
[20:47] <Reaper> Ah
[20:47] <Darknezz> ikonia: but im having problems with openGL
[20:47] <Reaper> Erm...
[20:47] <Chousuke> v^x^y: javascript :P
[20:47] <Reaper> I am downloading.
[20:47] <ikonia> meatpuppet: that seems reasonble yes
[20:47] <Reaper> Not running.
[20:47] <Reformer81> v^x^y: Canine fire.
[20:47] <Chousuke> v^x^y: C++
[20:47] <v^x^y> and which library does it use for the graphics?
[20:47] <ikonia> Darknezz: run glxinfo
[20:47] <rausb0> Reaper: Well, once it's downloaded, double-click on it on your desktop
[20:47] <Chousuke> v^x^y: which graphics?
[20:47] <Reaper> Aha.
[20:47] <Reaper> Okay.
[20:47] <Storrgie> is there a way to set my default media player to VLC?
[20:48] <joaopinto> v^x^y, on linux, gtk
[20:48] <Chousuke> v^x^y: probably Cairo on linux, anyway
[20:48] <linduxed2> ikonia: any idea having read the messages?
[20:48] <meatpuppet> not really manually editing text files is something I gave up in the late 1980's
[20:48] <Reformer81> rausb0: Guess he's only listening to you :)
[20:48] <Reaper> rausb0:  Ah, then .deb is actually kinda like .exe ?
[20:48] <ikonia> linduxed2: I've not seen any messages from you
[20:48] <v^x^y> thank you everyone
[20:48] <rausb0> Reaper: I'll put it this way - You manage to mess this up, go check yourself into a mental institution :o
[20:48] <Chousuke> Reaper: no, it's more like a .zip
[20:48] <Reaper> Aha
[20:48] <rausb0> Reaper: In a way, sorta.
[20:48] <Chousuke> Reaper: with additional info
[20:48] <joaopinto> Reaper, more like an .msi
[20:48] <Darknezz> ikonia: im still new to this. what command should i type?
[20:48] <Reaper> rausb0: Excuse me, I didn't know that .deb goes this way..
[20:48] <bobertdos> Storrgie: yes
[20:48] <ikonia> Darknezz: glxinfo - as I just said
[20:48] <Reaper> I thought it was .tar.gz/.bz2 or whatever
[20:49] <J2> hey guys, what linux kernel does ubuntu 6.06 use?
[20:49] <Storrgie> bobertdos: i would love to know, please
[20:49] <Chousuke> Reaper: .deb files are archives that contain the files you want to install and information about their dependencies and such
[20:49] <ikonia> J2: 2.6.15 I believe
[20:49] <linduxed2> ikonia: hmm then the kube us too long and it didnt get posted
[20:49] <Reaper> rausb0: Like for .tar formats, I don't know yet how to sort them out...
[20:49] <yosho> hey. Is there any solution to the /home/user/.gvfs permission denied thing?
[20:49] <J2> ikonia - thanks

[20:50] <linduxed2> ikonia: Please append a correct root= boot option; Kernel panic, not syncing VFS
[20:50] <ikonia> linduxed2: your grub config is messed up here
[20:50] <joaopinto> yosho, what ~.gvfdsdenied thing ? could you describe your problem ?
[20:50] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: hmmh
[20:50] <ikonia> linduxed2: what have you done to change your grub config
[20:50] <Darknezz> ikonia: extension "GLX" missing on display
[20:50] <bobertdos> Storrgie: System->Preferences->Preferred Applications->Multimedia
[20:50] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: that requires editing some files in a way that you could mess up real bad :P
[20:50] <ikonia> Darknezz: ok - so open the hardware drivers menu from system->administation
[20:50] <bobertdos> Storrgie: then select custom command and enter the command for vlc

[20:51] <ak5> hello, I am giving remote support to someone with ubuntu, I need the exec plugin for pidgin, what package in the repos has this?
[20:51] <v^x^y> does GIMP use GTK? and Cairo?

[20:51] <Chaotic_Descent> Chousuke: great. :S I just wish I'd known things like IRC would start using my username in my whois.
[20:51] <Chousuke> v^x^y: GTK stands for Gimp toolkit

[20:54] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: ok - so your disk will be /dev/sda
[20:54] <Darknezz> ikonia: all i see is this "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (latest cards) - not in use
[20:54] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: not /dev/hda
[20:54] <ikonia> Darknezz: enable it
[20:54] <joaopinto> yosho, could you pastebin the text on the terminal when you execute the command ?
[20:54] <linduxed2> ikonia: i installed lilo with apt-get install lilo and then ran lilo -c on a custom lilo.conf that has never had any problems (6 months), and i have to use lilo because if i use grub my optical drive dissapears in both windows and linux
[20:55] <Chaotic_Descent> Chousuke: is it difficult to copy over the files from one account into another?
[20:55] <Storrgie> that was it
[20:55] <Chousuke> no
[20:55] <Storrgie> thank you sir
[20:55] <ikonia> linduxed2: I find that an odd statment,
[20:55] <yosho> chown: cannot access '/home/yoshokatana/.gvfs': Permission denied
[20:55] <linduxed2> ikonia: what part of it?
[20:55] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how do i check where windows is located?
[20:55] <yosho> when I tried to "sudo chown yoshokatana /home/yoshokatana/.gvfs"
[20:56] <rausb0> ompaul scared me
[20:56] <ikonia> linduxed2: basiclly it's complaining that it can't see the initrd and root file systems at boot time, this is either because your options are wrong in lilo, or your disk controller is no longer visable/compatible with yout initrd
[20:56] <ikonia> linduxed2: the loss of cd drives with grub
[20:56] <Storrgie> anyone having issues opening DVD's with VLC in ubuntu?
[20:56] <joaopinto> yosho, sudo chmod 644 on it first
[20:56] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[20:56] <yosho> I tried. same error. Permission denied
[20:57] <Chaotic_Descent> huh... I can't seem to copy the files from one user folder into another...
[20:57] <joaopinto> yosho, who is owning the directory at the moment ?
[20:57] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: create new user, make yourself root, rm -rf /home/newuser; cp -r /home/olduser /home/newuser; chown -R newuser:newuser /home/newuser
[20:57] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25771/
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> ak5 It appears to have been droipped due to security risks
[20:57] <yosho> how do I find that out?
[20:57] <ak5> Jack_Sparrow: agh
[20:57] <ak5> Jack_Sparrow: just noticed
[20:57] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: that copies the files; you can also use mv, but that may mess up your old user
[20:57] <spikemcc> how udev rules for game controllers work ????
[20:57] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: if you make a mistake
[20:57] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: I asked you to do /dev/sda
[20:58] <Chaotic_Descent> Chousuke: I was reading something about chown. that works?
[20:58] <bobertdos> Storrgie: Offical movies, right?
[20:58] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: chown changes file ownership
[20:58] <yosho> joaopinto: what's the command to see folder permissions? (Still newbing)
[20:58] <Storrgie> bobertdos: yea i rented like 10 movies to tide me over this week
[20:58] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: nothing happened
[20:58] <ak5> yosho: ls -l
[20:58] <linduxed2> ikonia: i personally think the hdd has gone bad in key sectors, and when speaking about the grub-optical-thing, let me just assure you that ive done extensive research and it is grub that causes that problem
[20:58] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: your new user must own the files in his homedir :P
[20:58] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: thats quite worrying, and your %100 using ubuntu 8.04 ?
[20:58] <blittan> anyone having slow wireless? have a belkin usb 7050 wireless 54g
[20:58] <Chaotic_Descent> but won't there be files under the old user account that still uses the old account name instead of the new one?
[20:59] <joaopinto> yofel, ls -la ~/.gvfs
[20:59] <Darknezz> ikonia: sorry about the wait i was AFK. i will try it now
[20:59] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: yes, but once you've copied them and changed owner on the copied files, you can remove the old user and his files.
[20:59] <joaopinto> ops i meant yosho , and its ls -lad
[20:59] <ikonia> Darknezz: not a problem
[20:59] <ak5> Jack_Sparrow: thx a bunch, you are the person who always helps me with ubuntu woes :)
[20:59] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i upgraded to ubuntu hardy yesterday yes, i ,logged in on xfce though i-m on xubuntu right now
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[20:59] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: please show me "uname -a"
[20:59] <Darknezz> ikonia: it says i need to restart. is there anything alse i have to do?
[21:00] <ak5> Jack_Sparrow: no, you are teh bomb :)
[21:00] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: make sure you make your new user an admin too though :)
[21:00] <ikonia> Darknezz: restart and lets see where we are
[21:00] <linduxed2> ikonia: i personally think the hdd has gone bad in key sectors, and when speaking about the grub-optical-thing, let me just assure you that....
[21:00] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: Linux sebastian 2.6.15-52-386 #1 PREEMPT Mon Jun 9 17:24:46 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[21:00] <linduxed2> ikonia: .... ive done extensive research and it is grub that causes that problem
[21:00] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: otherwise you'll lose access to sudo if you delete the old user
[21:00] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: thats not 8.04
[21:00] <Darknezz> ikonia: kk i will be back
[21:00] <Chaotic_Descent> I thought you weren't supposed to use admin accounts.
[21:00] <ikonia> linduxed2: I don't doubt it, I just find it hard to accept
[21:00] <yosho> ok, joaopinto, how do I decipher this? I get "dr-x------- 2 yoshokatana yoshokatana 0" then date and time
[21:00] <Storrgie> bobertdos: any ideas?
[21:00] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: "admin" doesn't mean root
[21:00] <jamus> howdy , how do i make gparted live cd?
[21:00] <joaopinto> yosho, that file is owned by you, you are not expected to use sudo
[21:01] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: any user who is able to use sudo is "admin"
[21:01] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: but i upgraded yesterday
[21:01] <yosho> joaopinto: then "drwx------- 47 yoshokatana yoshokatana 4096" date/time
[21:01] <ikonia> jamus: just use the ubuntu livecd and install gparted
[21:01] <Chaotic_Descent> ... why is my mouse cursor now a grabbing hand with the user icon?
[21:01] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: nope - your still running 6.06
[21:01] <jamus> or else part this  hd using gparted
[21:01] <IndyGunFreak> Chaotic_Descent: theme change?
[21:01] <linduxed2> ikonia: i think ill go reinstall ubuntu, thatll solve it
[21:01] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: what did you do?
[21:01] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i upgrade? i opened the software manager or wahtever for 6 hours and it downloaded and then it reinstalled and what not
[21:01] <joaopinto> yosho, what is your problem in the first place ? Why do you need to change the file permissions ?
[21:01] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: did you upgrade ubuntu or xubuntu ?
[21:01] <CostaRicanQuaker> i did it from kde though but it's the same thing no?
[21:02] <CostaRicanQuaker> i upgraded from dapper to hardy...logged on kde
[21:02] <Chaotic_Descent> hrm. nevermind. it must have thought I was dragging the user accounts app instead of loading it. -_-; circumstances are being really difficult for me today.
[21:02] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: doesn't matter on the desktop, should all be the same
[21:02] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[21:02] <ericpersson> should be possible to upgrade from feisty to gutsy, right?
[21:02] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: the upgade didn't happen, your still running or booting form 6.06 kernel
[21:02] <yosho> joaopinto: I needed to fix the "$HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored" error
[21:02] <CostaRicanQuaker> but the login window looks different when i reboot
[21:02] <CostaRicanQuaker> hold on ikonia i'll brb
[21:03] <joaopinto> yofel, erm, .dmrc is not related to .gvfs !
[21:03] <x3> is tehre a way to get a more up to date repository?
[21:03] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: it should be pretty easy,...
[21:03] <joaopinto> yosho, ls -lad $HOME/.dmrc
[21:03] <IndyGunFreak> x3: what version of ubuntua re you using?
[21:03] <jamus> i have a ver of ubuntu that has a part thingy but i didnt figure how to use it
[21:03] <yosho> joaopinto: one moment...
[21:04] <x3> 8.04
[21:04] <jamus> its rediculus im running ubu on 250 disk
[21:04] <jamus> :))
[21:04] <Chaotic_Descent> HAH! I deleted the new user account because it wasn't admin. I tried to make it again and the old folder still exists so I can't create it using the same name.
[21:04] <TheManiacKY> I only have Bash/Shell access to my linux box right now, How can I tell Linux to burn an iso to a black CD in the CDRW drive?
[21:04] <bobertdos> Storrgie: I can walk you through the packages you need, if you want me to.
[21:04] <IndyGunFreak> well how much more up to date to you need it?.. the distro is only 4mo old
[21:04] <TheManiacKY> black=blank
[21:04] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: seem to get a few broken dependencies when trying dist-upgrade, but cant seem to find which packages it is..
[21:04] <Storrgie> bobertdos: do i need packages even though im using vlc?
[21:04] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: when going from feisty to gutsy?
[21:04] <jbroome> TheManiacKY: cdrecord -dao -eject -data <isofile>
[21:04] <joaopinto> TheManiacKY, use cdrecord
[21:05] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: yeah..
[21:05] <bobertdos> yes, yes you do :p
[21:05] <Chaotic_Descent> when is it going to delete the folder for the deleted user so that I can create it again? do I have to restart, or delete it manually?
[21:05] <x3> theres plenty of packages that are outdated by two sometimes more versins
[21:05] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: thats kinda weird, where are the broken dependencies, are they in third party repos?
[21:05] <Storrgie> really do you?
[21:05] <TheManiacKY> jbroome IndyGunFreak Great Thanks guys!
[21:05] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i just logged on kde
[21:05] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: dont know, not sure how to list them..
[21:05] <bobertdos> Storrgie: but basically just one :D
[21:05] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i check which version i'm on
[21:05] <Storrgie> well hit me!
[21:05] <joaopinto> x3, only critical bug fixes are applied to the current released versions
[21:05] <yosho> joaopinto: well, I just restarted. No error messages, but I didn't get any panels or wallpaper.
[21:05] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: I just told you the desktop doesn't matter
[21:05] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: show me uname -a please.
[21:05] <joaopinto> yosho, I have asked for the ls output :)
[21:06] <joaopinto> CosMiC_Touch, please pastebin the result from lsb_release -a
[21:06] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: perhaps a aptitude upgrade first fixes it..
[21:06] <CostaRicanQuaker> Linux sebastian 2.6.15-52-386 #1 PREEMPT Mon Jun 9 17:24:46 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[21:06] <joaopinto> ops, was CostaRicanQuaker
[21:06] <x3> what about updating buggy softwares
[21:06] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your still running the 6.06 kernel
[21:06] <Jack_Sparrow> x3 those are seldom big changes.. it you must have bleeding edge versions,, have plenty of bandaids
[21:06] <yosho> yep, here it is: "-rw------ 1 yoshokatana yoshokatana 28" time/date
[21:06] <joaopinto> x3, if the bug is critical it will probably be fixed
[21:06] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: possible.. make sure your system is completely up to date, then go for the system upgrade
[21:06] <bullgard4> [Evolution] I have got 2 local calendars. I am asked if either of them is marked for offline duplication. I do not know what is meant by 'offline duplication' of an Evolution calendar. Can you explain? I did not find this term in the Evolution 2.22 User Guide.
[21:06] <x3> ebox is breakes ubuntu thunderbird freezes
[21:06] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: why did the upgrade not work? it took hours and it did everything it said it was going to do adn then when it restarted the log in screen looked different a nd i think some new apps where installed
[21:07] <tn712> come to tn712 canal
[21:07] <leeping2007> Hey there, I'm trying to install the Intel fortran compiler for ubuntu.  Can anyone help me get started?
[21:07] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: yeah, trying to get to hardy, but one step at the time..
[21:07] <ikonia> bullgard4: it means syncronised locally with a central server
[21:07] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: what do i do?
[21:07] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: when you get your grub menu - how many options do you have (or pastebin /boot/grub/menu.lst for me to look at)
[21:07] <bullgard4> ikonia: Thank you for explaining.
[21:07] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: i bet that will take a while, why not just backup, clean install hardy, you'll be done in an hour
[21:07] <x3> ok is ter a place where I xan get deb packages of the laterst softwares
[21:07] <tn712> channel tn712
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> !alternative
[21:08] <joaopinto> leeping2007, it would be easier to use one of the fortran compilers available on the repositories...
[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> x3 If you want the latest release, then you need to compile it yourself or see if a deb for Ubuntu is available.  It will not show up in the repos..   Only critical bug fixes are applied to the current released versions..  If you have installed later versions and have a bunch of mismatched dependencies..  there isnt much people can do to help you

[21:08] <matthew__> how can I rename a USB NFTS drive?
[21:08] <joaopinto> x3, you can set updates for some packages from getdeb.net, but you really should only get if you need them, not just because they are new
[21:08] <leeping2007> joaopinto, I can't use the compilers on the repositories.  They are unsupported for the program that I am trying to compile
[21:08] <IndyGunFreak> CostaRicanQuaker: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[21:08] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: you don't run that file - you open it in a text editor, and use the pastebin
[21:08] <joaopinto> leeping2007, ah ok :\
[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> IndyGunFreak gksudo gedit
[21:09] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: eh, true.. i was just looking at his line.. and wasn't thinking.. i'm usually anal about that.
[21:09] <x3> Jack_sparrow I get what u mean but I was hoping you could point me to a secret stach
[21:09] <tclineks> don't think this is possible but can i link one one file to another without using more inodes until i modify one of the files?
[21:09] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[21:09] <Dr_willis> CostaRicanQuaker,  menu.lst is a config file you edit., not a command you run
[21:09] <matthew__> how can I rename a USB NFTS drive?
[21:09] <ikonia> matthew__: just mount it like a normal scsi drive
[21:10] <x3> I ahve several issues this is why I want to get newer ones for some (not all)
[21:10] <Dr_willis> matthew__,  if you mean 'relabel' you can  set the volume name from windows, or use the ntfstools package. it has some label command
[21:10] <tn712> channel yn712
[21:10] <Darknezz> ikonia: i got it to work but my res is low and i cant turn it up :-S
[21:10] <eth01> start with nano and then progress onto vi etc
[21:10] <tn712> *tn712
[21:10] <yosho> hmm. How would I go about getting my panel back? (some terminal command?)
[21:10] <eth01> MUCH easier.
[21:10] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: hmm.. quite a lot of configuring to do, since its a mythtvbox
[21:10] <Aquina> `lo
[21:10] <matthew__> ikonia: It has the name "BACK UP" though, and the space is messing with my backup program
[21:10] <ikonia> matthew__: change the label in windows then
[21:10] <ikonia> Darknezz: what does hardware driver manager show now ?
[21:11] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: yeah, bu tthink about it, you think all that upgrading is gonnna go smooth?
[21:11] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25774/
[21:11] <Darknezz> ikonia: that its in use
[21:11] <tn712> channel tn712
[21:11] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: well, if it doesnt, i could just install windows and reinstall every six months.. ;)
[21:11] <chasmarang> I sent a cd I copied into the trash now I cant empty it has anyone run into this problem
[21:12] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your not chosing the 8.04 kernel
[21:12] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your selecting Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.15-52-386
[21:12] <TheManiacKY> Is it worth running a 64 bit Linux OS on a Server with only 3 GIG of Ram? The process supports 64 Bit/VT but I wasn't for sure if its like in the Windows world that you won't really see any benefits? Does the Linux Kernel really take advantage of 64bit in a noticable difference compared to running it on the same hardware in 32bit?
[21:12] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your menu.lst file is messed up
[21:12] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: eh, but you're still forgetting the fact you have to worry about constantly being accosted by spyware/malware/viruses on Windows.. I clean install Ubuntu every 6mo, doesn't bother me
[21:12] <IndyGunFreak> but i keep insane backups
[21:12] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how do i fix it?
[21:12] <SNuxoll> TheManiacKY: depends on what you run on it
[21:12] <ikonia> TheManiacKY: it will take advantage if your on hardware that setup to use it, and your doing work that will benifit from it
[21:12] <yosho> uh oh. what is the program that controls the panels in gnome? (not gnome-panel, but the normal ones, with the clock, menu's, etc)
[21:12] <leeping2007> I think I found the Intel fortran compiler.  The processor architectures that it offers are IA-32, IA-64, and Intel(R) 64.  Can I install the latter on my amd64 operating system?
[21:12] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: select Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-19-386
[21:13] <SNuxoll> TheManiacKY: 64bit CPU's also have math extensions, so I'd assume you'd probably get at least some benefit out of it
[21:13] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: sounds insane, i installed debian on my laptop 3 years ago, still runs like a rock..
[21:13] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok brb
[21:13] <joaopinto> leeping2007, if you have installed the 64bits ubuntu, you should
[21:13] <TheManiacKY> SNuxoll Oh okay tx
[21:13] <IndyGunFreak> erichammond: yeah, i've had Debian on 2 boxes for probably 2yrs...
[21:14] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: i just clean install when new distros come out.. no other time, i hate upgrading an OS.. hated it w/ Windows(always clean installed there to, despite the $$), and I hate it w/ linux
[21:14] <leeping2007> joaopinto, thank you :)
[21:15] <Darknezz> ikonia: that its in use
[21:15] <TheManiacKY> Does the Ubuntu 8.x servers make use of the VT Virtual technologies in the Intel processors for anything? Or only if you are using servers ontop of linux like VMWare or Xen?
[21:15] <ikonia> Darknezz: ok - thats a start, so what does glxinfo show ?
[21:15] <matthew__> how can I find out the name of a mounted device?
[21:15] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: that used to be the beuty of debian and i hoped with ubuntu as well..
[21:15] <yosho> hey, joaopinto, what command will restart my panels? (running gnome, not sure what the panels are called)
[21:15] <ikonia> matthew__: look at it's mount point
[21:15] <Darknezz> ikonia: same thing as before
[21:16] <chasmarang> I sent a cd I copied into the trash now I cant empty it has anyone run into this problem
[21:16] <matthew__> ikonia: um... how do I do that? I'm a noob.
[21:16] <yosho> (menu bar? taskbar?)
[21:16] <ikonia> Darknezz: what about glxgears, does that show dri enabled ?
[21:16] <ikonia> matthew__: where is your disk mounted ?
[21:16] <ikonia> matthew__: as in what mount point
[21:16] <Zelos> Hi there!
[21:16] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: i agree w/ you. if debian had a little bit better hardware support on my newer boxes, i'd debian on everything(right now, i have 2 ubuntu machines, 2 Debian machines.. each consisting of 1 PC and 1 Laptop)
[21:16] <Darknezz> ikonia: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
[21:16] <matthew__> ikonia: um, i'm not really sure, I access the drive through /media/BACK UP/
[21:16] <Darknezz> ikonia: thats all i get
[21:17] <Darknezz> ikonia: like over and over again
[21:17] <ikonia> matthew__: so the lavel is "BACK UP"
[21:17] <ikonia> Darknezz: I see
[21:17] <matthew__> ikonia: ok, thanks!
[21:17] <chasmarang> I sent a cd I copied into the trash now I cant empty it - ca anyone help me empty it
[21:17] <ikonia> Darknezz: I'll have to have a little ponder on that
[21:17] <amenado> chasmarang-> you go and remove contents of .Trash directory
[21:17] <Zelos> Is there an "easy" way in Ubuntu to prevent Applications from stealing fokus (I am using gnome)?
[21:17] <joaopinto> !resetpanels | yosho
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> joaopinto: thats a great bot addition, hadn't saw that one, but it comes up here a lot
[21:18] <Darknezz> ikonia: ...ok. how can i change the res or change the video card/monitor  so i can change the res?
[21:18] <matthew__> ikonia: hmm, ntfs label says that the device doesn't exist, does it want a /dev/XXX style of thing or something? and how would I find that out?
[21:18] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: yeah, hardware is always the issue...
[21:18] <ikonia> Darknezz: you can force that in your xorg.conf
[21:18] <ikonia> matthew__: I don't trust changing ntfs parameters in linux - I'd change them in windows,
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: and Ubuntu has top notch hardware detection/support
[21:19] <joaopinto> :)
[21:19] <illogic-al> ikonia: card wasn't making proper contact w/ the slot. i got it to show up just now.
[21:19] <illogic-al> hopefully it still works on reboot
[21:19] <ikonia> illogic-al: oh, thats excellent, well done
[21:19] <Darknezz> ikonia: .1 .2 or .3?
[21:19] <ikonia> Darknezz: ?
[21:19] <matthew__> ikonia: I hate windows >.<, but I guess I have to try that
[21:19] <ikonia> matthew__: then don't use windows file systems ?
[21:20] <ikonia> matthew__: format it with a native linux file system
[21:20] <matthew__> ikonia: the drive has some of my family's stuff on it though, and they use windows
[21:20] <angasule> hmm, my other PC is failing to boot, it says it can't mount /dev/hda2 on /root, which is kinda funny, since it's booting from /dev/hda2 :/
[21:20] <ikonia> matthew__: buy your own drive then
[21:20] <Darknezz> ikonia: nevermind
[21:20] <matthew__> ikonia: I guess I can setup an ext3 partition...
[21:20] <ikonia> matthew__: sure if you want to re-partition it
[21:21] <yosho> erm..not gnome-panel, but the panels where I find time/menu/application switcher/volume/etc. what are those called, joaopinto ?
[21:21] <_2> what might cause this ?   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d66715322
[21:21] <ShinjinAkage> My system monitor is badly messed up. The GUI is screwy, it only takes half of it's box up and I still have to click on the other side of the box instead of it's actual location. Any suggestions?
[21:21] <_2> angasule booting from and being able to mount are two entirely different things
[21:21] <Darknezz> ikonia: how would i change it in xorg.conf?
[21:21] <Qwexer> hello all, is anyone else having a problem with their stumpleupon toolbar missing in firefox?
[21:21] <Darknezz> ikonia: or get into it for that matter
[21:22] <ikonia> Darknezz: the xorg config file is /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:22] <angasule> _2: well, it can be mounted, I think, I did an fsck already
[21:22] <ShinjinAkage> Qwexer: I'm not, but then again I haven't restarted firefox in days
[21:22] <matthew__> ikonia: hopefully gparted doesn't take as long as it did when I had to resize my main partition
[21:22] <Darknezz> ikonia: im in the file right now but what do i change?
[21:22] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i just checked i cant boot up if i choose 8.04
[21:23] <Qwexer> I believe firefox crashed and when I rebooted, it was gone..I've uninstalled and reinstalled but to no avail
[21:23] <ikonia> Darknezz: just be patient will you please, I've just said I'm looking at your card and driver vesions
[21:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> if i do it gets me to this prompt that says debian dot some numbers ubuntu something
[21:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> and it says something like intrd
[21:23] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: please get the exact error
[21:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> that's the reason why i was scrolling down to the other option
[21:23] <_2> angasule but the correct kernel modules have to be inserted in the kernel before it can be mounted.   i.e. ide-disk ext3
[21:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> er...there's no error it says debian...ok hold on
[21:23] <valiza1> is there eye tracker support ?
[21:24] <angasule> _2: ext3 is a module? doesn't make much sense...
[21:24] <KDB9000> is there anyone in here that is part of the Laptop Test Team?
[21:24] <x3> is there anyone else that thinks kernel <IP_ADDRESS> is a bit unstable?
[21:24] <ikonia> x3: no
[21:24] <x3> I tested a laptop
[21:24] <Dr_willis> all the filesystems can be modules, or built into the kernel.
[21:24] <_2> angasule may i sujest you look into rebuilding the initramfs.img seeing that it's in the initramfs that all that takes place   and yes i agree disk and fs support should be in the default kernel
[21:24] <Darknezz> ikonia: o sorry about that.
[21:24] <_2> angasule but i didn't build the thing...   and it's not.
[21:25] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: busybox (Debian 1:1.1.3-5ubuntu12) built in shell (ash) enterhelp for a liust of cuilt in commands
[21:25] <x3> what laptop yuou wanna wack ubuntu in
[21:25] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: looks like your upgrade didn't go well
[21:25] <ikonia> x3: what ?
[21:25] <ikonia> x3: please talk in clear english
[21:25] <x3> xps 1710 is ok xps 1730 is ok
[21:25] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: uh huh...how do i fix it?
[21:25] <x3> all inspiron are ok
[21:26] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: looks like your grub setup is pretty messed up
[21:26] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: at a guess,
[21:26] <CostaRicanQuaker> i had to resintall grub from an install cd
[21:26] <KDB9000> x3: I am installing ubuntu onto my HP Pavilion dv5000 (AMD64 CPU). I believe the exact model is a dv5100 CTO, still checking on that.
[21:26] <xaustenx> so, i have Evemon installed into Wine, Evemon runs off the .Net crap and i have all the Mono stuff install for Hardy, is there a reason why Evemon isn't running off of Wine?
[21:26] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: why ?
[21:26] <x3> iconia <KDB9000> is there anyone in here that is part of the Laptop Test Team?
[21:26] <CostaRicanQuaker> because after i deleted and resintalled windows it wouldnt run
[21:26] <CostaRicanQuaker> grub that is
[21:26] <ikonia> x3: no
[21:27] <ZZZZ> Hi all. I have some problem with squidGuard. Could anybody help me with it here?
[21:27] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: what install cd did you use
[21:27]  * m_newton is away: loligaging at the wee hours of nite; just to say hi to all and host my server.
[21:27] <CostaRicanQuaker> er...breezy badger
[21:27] <matthew__> ikonia: If I make a new partition, should it be ext2 or ext3?
[21:27] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: thats not good
[21:27] <AMLNXUSR> I am having issues with my sound card since i upgraded to 8.04.. hoping someone can help meout
[21:27] <x3> KDB it should be fine but I recommned the live cd first
[21:27] <ikonia> matthew__: up to you, ext3 is common
[21:27] <matthew__> ikonia: ext3 then
[21:27] <_2> ikonia just a thought about that busybox shell   upgrading from breezy to hardy he probably went from hda to sda "scsi emulation"  might just be a root= issue.
[21:28] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how can i download an .iso image of kubuntu from the terminal(which i hope will give me the accurate by coming directly from the repos)
[21:28] <x3> Ikonia anay particular words not mankindg sense to you of what I say/
[21:28] <angasule> I just checked... and if I boot in recovery mode, I can mount /dev/hda2 no problem
[21:28] <Juan_> hi
[21:28] <Juan_> i have a question
[21:28] <ikonia> _2: very possible but his menu.lst is using uuid so that should be fine, I suspect its most likley not uuid aware as it's an old grub version
[21:28] <chasmarang> amendo: do you mean like home/.Trash
[21:28] <Juan_> how do i fully install ubuntu on a pc.
[21:29] <KDB9000> x3: I have already done testing with another hard drive in the laptop and it works for the most part. The quickplay buttons (DVD and quickplay) and the wireless button have trouble working, but other then that it works like a dream. Needed to update the firmware for my wireless to work.
[21:29] <Juan_> without windows running on it
[21:29] <Juan_> just ubuntu
[21:29] <vivaslb> hi all
[21:29] <ikonia> Juan_: put an install cd in - click install in the top left corner, walk through the install
[21:29] <Juan_> i know
[21:29] <_2> ikonia i hadn't seen his menu.lst   sorry on that.  but: breezy's grub supported uuid
[21:29] <Dr_willis> Juan_,
[21:29] <Juan_> but i only want ubuntu not windows
[21:29] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: now i remember after i upgraded i couldn't get the 8.04 version to boot up so thats why i kept running from the old one however it did download some new programs and some things looked different
[21:29] <Juan_> like delete the windows and have only the ubunutu
[21:29] <KDB9000> x3: the wireless turns off my bluetooth but that is it, it doesn't turn the wifi off. That isn't that big of a deal because I am always using wifi.
[21:30] <ikonia> _2: no need to apologise, I don't know if breezy supports uuid ?
[21:30] <x3> there are wireless drivers that werk great
[21:30] <Dr_willis> Juan_,   delete windows partitions using gparted then, let ubuntu take over rest of the kd.
[21:30] <mrichman> Anyone know how to open PDFs inside Firefox without opening a helper app?
[21:30] <_2> ikonia yes it did.
[21:30] <Juan_> whats gparted?
 angasule may i sujest you look into rebuilding the initramfs.img seeing that it's in the initramfs that all that takes place <-- how do I do this?
[21:30] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: what do i do
[21:30] <Dr_willis> Juan_,  actually the installer asks "use all of hard drive' I beluive.. that will remove everything on the hd.
[21:30] <x3> on mine both intel 4965agn and 3945abg were 100%
[21:30] <Dr_willis> !gparted | Juan_
[21:30] <vivaslb> anyone know how to make sure a particular package (evolution in this case) stays at a given version, when upgrading the distro. i want to stay with gutsy version of evolution but upgrade rest to hardy.
[21:30] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: not sure at this moment
[21:30] <KDB9000> x3: ya, I can use the b43 drive, just need to dot he firmware update and I was able to connect to my wireless with WPA
[21:30] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i could do a clean install right?
[21:30] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: sure
[21:31] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i get an error free perfect hash sums image .iso file
[21:31] <_2> angasule chroot and mkinitramfs  are the two commands involved.
[21:31] <Juan_> alright i have a window up that says demo and full instalation install inside windows and learn more
[21:31] <CostaRicanQuaker> from the terminal
[21:31] <x3> ah
[21:31] <Juan_> which one do i pick to make the harddrive only ubuntu
[21:31] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: use wget to download it
[21:31] <Juan_> without widows running on it
[21:31] <KDB9000> x3: but I asked because I would like to add my dv5000 to the wiki
[21:31] <CostaRicanQuaker> wget?
[21:31] <_2> angasule there should be a howto on the interweb
[21:31] <ikonia> Juan_: if windows isn't on your machine it doesn't matter
[21:31] <Dr_willis> Juan_,  thats wubi.. you BOOT the linux instller cd.. to totally remove windows.
[21:31] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: please specify a path way and i'll do it
[21:31] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: a path way ?
[21:31] <KDB9000> but I have to go so I will have to try and get them later.
[21:32] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: just go to the download site on http://www.ubuntu.com
[21:32] <x3> wpa or wpa2 u want?
[21:32] <CostaRicanQuaker> no no no ikonia: that site never gives me right hashes for the cdrs
[21:32] <CostaRicanQuaker> and a lot of them end up wasted
[21:32] <Juan_> ok so i should shut off my pc and click like f11 to boot from the ubuntu cd?
[21:32] <CostaRicanQuaker> or not installing
[21:32] <rogue_trader> hmm anyone else experiencing system freezes? yes its ATI vs compiz but somehow the constant freezing seems to be ubuntu-specific
[21:32] <Juan_> and the click erase windows?
[21:32] <Dr_willis> Juan_,  if thats how you boot from cd.. yes.
[21:32] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: it will do - if it's not, its most likley your connection/isp causing issues
[21:32] <Juan_> that will erase windows?
[21:32] <Dr_willis> Juan_,  the installer will ask if you want to use 'all' of the hard drive..
[21:33] <rogue_trader> I have to urge to install gentoo or arch to finally be in control of everything going on harharhar *world domination mode on*
[21:33] <kornal> hello all I have a Question: Pcman took over my menu bar how can I get the menu bar back to using Nautilus as default?
[21:33] <_2> CostaRicanQuaker as per dl from terminal    wget address
[21:33] <vivaslb> Juan_ when you get to the part where you partition the hard drive, choose use entire hard drive and automatic
[21:33] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: never mind then, i'll just wait to receive the kubuntu cds i ordered from canonical
[21:33] <x3> gosh I hate thunderbird it freezes 80% of the time
[21:33] <Juan_> alright so i click install ubuntu
[21:33] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i mount the ntsf partition however
[21:33] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia:
[21:33] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: ok
[21:33] <Darknezz> ikonia: any luck?
[21:33] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: mount /dev/hda1 /mnt
[21:33] <ikonia> Darknezz: nothing obvious for 6600's
[21:33] <Juan_> in the ubuntu installation
[21:34] <vivaslb> yes Juan
[21:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: will it keep mounted after rebooting? there;s a specific directory
[21:34] <_2>    what might cause this ?   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d66715322
[21:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> media/CDrive in the home folder
[21:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> where it has to be mounted i think
[21:34] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: no it on't moount by default, put it in your /etc/fstab file
[21:34] <IndyGunFreak> Juan_: make sure you have any important files backed up(music, etc..)
[21:34] <Darknezz> ikonia: damn. but how do i change the res in xorg.conf file?
[21:34] <Juan_> it says this kernel requires an x86-64 cpu, but only detected and i686 cpu. unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your cpu
[21:35] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how do i open my fstab file?
[21:35] <cl0s> is there any other PC manufacturer that pre-packages linux, preferably Ubuntu, besides System 76?
[21:35] <newbyx86> then get the 32-bit ubuntu, Juan)_
[21:35] <cl0s> real PCs.. not like everex
[21:35] <newbyx86> Juan_*
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> Juan_: you need to download 32bit ubuntu ISO..(i386)
[21:35] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: come on ! it's a text file
[21:35] <Fryguy--> CostaRicanQuaker: gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[21:35] <vivaslb> Juan_: you have the wrong CD! you need the non-64 bit one
[21:35] <newbyx86> I did that too, but with Vista.
[21:35] <newbyx86> :P
[21:35] <newbyx86> *ducks*
[21:35] <Juan_> can you give me a link on which one i have to get
[21:35] <angasule> _2: does it matter that none of the kernels in that pc can boot? or the initramfs is not specific to one?
[21:35] <ikonia> Darknezz: you need to edit the display settings and the monitor settins in the xorg.conf file to be specific to your card and monitor
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> Juan_: go to ubuntu.com and download the normal desktop iso
[21:35] <vivaslb> Juan_: you want ubuntu?
[21:36] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: ok it[s open now what do i do?
[21:36] <Fryguy--> Juan_: i386, all of the default radio buttons on the getubuntu page
[21:36] <vivaslb> Juan_: latest
[21:36] <Juan_> can i have the link
[21:36] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: put in the details of your ntfs disk
[21:36] <gorgg> i have got a format i do not recognise. *.uif -when i search google it says its a deamon tool thing, which i have used earlier, but is there any way for me now with ubuntu to convert to mp3 or similar easily?
[21:36] <Juan_> please
[21:36] <vivaslb> Juan_: can you be less lazy
[21:36] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i dont understand
[21:36] <Juan_> look im a noob
[21:36] <_2> angasule each kernel has it's own initramfs.img    but note that kernel blah and kernel blah safe recovery mode are the same kernel.
[21:36] <Fryguy--> Juan_: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu
[21:36] <Juan_> alright im at ubuntu .com
[21:36] <Juan_> k
[21:37] <Juan_> then i click download now
[21:37] <Juan_> right?
[21:37] <Fryguy--> Juan_: yes
[21:37] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: `what part is not clear  - you can see what's in that file and how it relates to a disk - add an entry for your ntfs disk
[21:37] <angasule> _2: ok, but I tried with different kernels (and one of the recovery modes, the recovery mode worked fine)
[21:37] <Juan_> then which release do i pick?
[21:37] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: but what do i add?
[21:37] <newbyx86> screen -r
[21:37] <newbyx86> wrong window, dammit
[21:37] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: the details for your ntfs drive
[21:37] <Juan_> nvm
[21:37] <_2> angasule ok.  then make sure it's the correct address.
[21:37] <angasule> _2: it's dapper, so as you can imagine it has a ton of available kernels installed
[21:37] <IndyGunFreak> Juan_: which release?.. it should only be 8.04
[21:37] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: the detail sI've given you
[21:37] <Juan_> i picked desktop then i click standard personal computer right?
[21:37] <angasule> _2: the correct address? what do you mean?
[21:37] <Darknezz> ikonia: i did already (when i restarted a window popped up and i changed all the settings)
[21:37] <Fryguy--> Juan_: I might reconsider my choice of operating system if you consider tasks such as downloading files to be difficult.  Using a new operating system requires some level of ability to read documentation and be willing to actually learn new things, not just get handheld through the entire process.
[21:38] <ikonia> Darknezz: what did you change in the xorg.conf ?
[21:38] <chasmarang> amendo: do you mean like home/.Trash
[21:38] <Juan_> ive tried ubuntu before
[21:38] <kornal> Question: Pcman has some how took over the menu bar "Places" "Folder" How can I get the menu bar back to using Nautilus as default?
[21:38] <Juan_> ive gotten to know it good
[21:38] <Fryguy--> Juan_: and yet you can't download an iso? hrmm...
[21:38] <Juan_> its just i dont want to click something wrong
[21:38] <Darknezz> ikonia: well i changed it then now when i check it it seems to all be there. AKA card and monitor i own
[21:38] <Chaotic_Descent_> what's WinXP's ipconfig equivalent in Ubuntu?
[21:38] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent_: ifconfig
[21:38] <Starnestommy> Chaotic_Descent_: ifconfig
[21:39] <ikonia> Darknezz: what did you change in it
[21:39] <_2> angasule if you have changed bios to boot from a different drive the address is affected in grub but not in the initramfs.img nor the running linux     so make sure that it's trying to mount the correct disk.
[21:39] <Bl4ckcomb> (how) can you do auto-perform with ssh? (e.g. automatically enter password with a sh/bash script)
[21:39] <Chaotic_Descent_> Thanks.
[21:39] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: listen, here/s the contents of that file, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25781/  what do i have to edit?
[21:39] <Jokimoto> \o/ success!
[21:39] <Fryguy--> Bl4ckcomb: use public/private keys instead
[21:39] <Juan_> alright give me a minute
[21:39] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: - no you listen, I've given you the information, I've spent a silly ammount of time explaining things to you and your not listening
[21:39] <angasule> _2: it is, I have not changed the bios or anything, and I mounted /dev/hda2 successfully (and went inside to check it was indeed the / partition, it is)
[21:39] <shader> hello, would someone mind helping me with some networking problems? ubuntu server edition, 8.04.1
[21:39] <Fryguy--> !ask | shader
[21:40] <_2> angasule i run dapper.   if you want me to take a look at your boot/grub/device* and boot/grub/menu.lst   i might notice if there is an obvious problem   if you pastebin them put the output of   fdsik -l with them
[21:40] <Darknezz> ikonia: i dont know the name of it but when i enabled the nvidia thing in hardware drivers and restarted it popped up befor it loaded the desktop
[21:40] <angasule> _2: ok, I'll boot into a live cd and get those for you, gimme a couple of minutes, thanks
[21:40] <ikonia> Darknezz: you don't know what you changed in the xorg.conf file ?
[21:41] <_2>      nobody knows what might cause this ?   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d66715322
[21:42] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: don't waste your patience on easiness, believe me this is harder for me than it is for you i've been trying ubuntu for 3 days now, what do i have to alter in that file?
[21:42] <shader> ok, I can't seem to connect to the lan, using either dhcp or static ip. The nic works fine, it's recognized and the correct driver module is loaded. However, I can't ping the router, or any other box on the network. it usually responds with "Destination Host Unreachable"
[21:42] <ikonia> _2: what distro are you using
[21:42] <VelcroMan> I'm having problems with Skype. I have googled and it seems like something with ALSA use to mess stuff up :P But, i get "Problem with audio capture". It works anywhere else. Mic test works. So it seems to be only skype
[21:42] <linduxed> ikonia: i just booted a live-cd, chrooted to the system and ran lilo -c......and now im in my system
[21:42] <_2> ikonia dapper
[21:42] <Storrgie> is there a guide to setting up evolution with google calendar
[21:42]  * m_newton is back (gone 00:15:37)
[21:42] <ikonia> _2: basiclly that package's dependencies don't exist
[21:42] <ikonia> !away | MostroMarino
[21:42] <ikonia> oops
[21:43] <_2> ikonia i translated "distro >> release"
[21:43] <ikonia> !awa | m_newton
[21:43] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: irc.gnome.org #evolution
[21:43] <ikonia> _2: thats right
[21:43] <Fryguy--> shader: does dhclient eth0 work
[21:43] <ikonia> !away | m_newton
[21:43] <Darknezz> ikonia: i did not manually change anything in the config file but when i specified the file it changed it automatically
[21:43] <Dr_willis> CostaRicanQuaker,  example entry from my fstab file for my NTFS drive. You WILL need to make changes  but this is close ->   /dev/sda1 /media/VistaBoot ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000,fmask=0077,dmask=0022 0 0
[21:43] <_2> ikonia then its a bug ?
[21:43] <ikonia> Darknezz: when you specified the file ?
[21:43] <VelcroMan> No, mic test does not work :/ But i can hear myself speak in the speakers :/
[21:43] <daemon3> Does opera support XMLHTTPRequest?
[21:43] <ikonia> _2: no - that package doesn't exist in dapper
[21:43] <Fryguy--> daemon3: yes
[21:43] <_2> ikonia then its a bug ?
[21:43] <ikonia> _2: why is it a bug  ?
[21:43] <Fryguy--> daemon3: well, maybe not that specific object, but it supports AN object for doing asynchronous http requests
[21:44] <Fryguy--> daemon3: #opera
[21:44] <_2> ikonia i mean it's listed in the package list   and doesn't exist means bug   no ?
[21:44] <CostaRicanQuaker> Fryguy--: ok this is your line, /dev/sda1 /media/VistaBoot ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000,fmask=0077,dmask=0022 0 0 what command do i have to enter on the terminal to know what differs from your lineand mine to jsut copy it at the very end of my fstab file?
[21:44] <Darknezz> ikonia: sorry the drivers and the monitor it updated the file automatically
[21:44] <ikonia> _2: not nessary, the package exists, it may have retired dependencies, by all means log a bug report
[21:44] <Fryguy--> CostaRicanQuaker: what?
[21:44] <Fryguy--> CostaRicanQuaker: that's not my line, what are you talking about
[21:44] <daemon3> Fryguy--: yeah, Opera's being a little quiet today.
[21:44] <spader3d> hi all
[21:45] <Dr_willis> Fryguy--,  OI just gave him the line as an example. from my fstab
[21:45] <kornal> Question: Pcman has some how took over the menu bar "Places" "Folder" How can I get the menu bar back to using Nautilus as default?
[21:45] <spader3d> is there a firewall i have to manage in kubuntu?
[21:45] <Fryguy--> daemon3: first google result looks handy: http://www.opera.com/docs/specs/opera9/xhr/
[21:45] <Fryguy--> Dr_willis: yes
[21:45] <ikonia> spader3d: iptables is installed but not enabled by default
[21:45] <Fryguy--> spader3d: iptables is enabled by default
[21:45] <CostaRicanQuaker> right, Dr_Willis: rather
[21:45] <Fryguy--> ikonia: it's enabled
[21:45] <Pupeno> What's the package for the Keyboard Layout configuration tool?
[21:45] <ikonia> Fryguy--: is it ?
[21:45] <CostaRicanQuaker> what command do i type to know what i have to alter
[21:45] <Storrgie> Fryguy--: noone is in that channel
[21:45] <shader> Fryguy--: no, it tries, but then fails. Actually, I have an idea. How do you set the netmask for dhclient?
[21:45] <Fryguy--> ikonia: yes
[21:45] <CostaRicanQuaker> what differs from your line and mine
[21:45] <ikonia> Fryguy--: with what rules ?
[21:45] <spader3d> i installed mythtv but can not get to the mysql database
[21:45] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: well this isn't an evolution support channel
[21:46] <Dr_willis> CostaRicanQuaker,  basically the /dev/### will differ. depening on where your ntfs is at.
[21:46] <ikonia> Fryguy--: he won't be able to use ntfs-3g due to him still running the dapper kernel
[21:46] <_2> ikonia yes iptables is enabled by default   and the rules are accept all
[21:46] <Fryguy--> shader: dhcp handles netmask for you
[21:46] <ikonia> _2: ok - so there is no firewall enabled
[21:46] <CostaRicanQuaker> Dr_Willis: how do i check where my ntsf is at?
[21:46] <Fryguy--> ikonia: k? why are you telling me
[21:46] <lapteck> hey how do i get system information
[21:46] <ikonia> Fryguy--: I thought you where discussing it with CostaRicanQuaker
[21:46] <Fryguy--> ikonia: no
[21:46] <ikonia> Fryguy--: then ignore it
[21:46]  * CostaRicanQuaker shakes head
[21:46] <Fryguy--> ikonia: k
[21:46] <shader> Fryguy--: and if it uses the wrong one?
[21:47] <x3> well guys that deb pidgin pack sorted all my problems with that
[21:47] <Fryguy--> shader: then your dhcp server is misconfigured
[21:47] <x3> now for all the others
[21:47] <_2> well   technecaly there is ikonia,  it's just set to recieve everything   thus same as no firewall     but the firewall is built into the kernel.
[21:47] <shader> Fryguy--: ?
[21:47] <daemon3> For some reason I can't use XMLHTTPRequest.
[21:47] <ikonia> _2: I'm aware of what iptables is and how it works
[21:47] <CostaRicanQuaker> Dr?Willis: how do i check where my ntsf is at?
[21:47] <Darknezz> ikonia: i uploaded the file if you want to take a look at it. http://www.mediafire.com/?ngx5jwjmb1z
[21:47] <Fryguy--> shader: try using static ips, edit /etc/network/interfaces , see the manpage for syntax details
[21:47] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: I've told you 5 times /dev/hda1
[21:48] <shader> Fryguy--: I have, they didn't seem to work any better
[21:48] <ikonia> Darknezz: not really, I'm trying to understand why your having issues with that driver and card
[21:48] <lapteck> how do i get system information
[21:48] <matthew__> hey, rsnapshot is giving my this error:  snapshot_root exists but is not readable, anyone know what could be happening?
[21:48] <Fryguy--> shader: then you aren't configuring your network correctly
[21:48] <angasule> _2: small problem, I'm using an ubuntu 7.10 live CD and it doesn't include an IRC client, I looked at the devices.map and it has: (hd0)   /dev/hda
[21:48] <shader> Fryguy--: maybe I made a mistake, but I still couldn't ping the router.
[21:48] <H__> Question : how do I find out which module this belongs to ? FileSel.c:47:29: error: X11/Xaw/SimpleP.h: No such file or directory
[21:48] <Fryguy--> matthew__: permissions on the directory
[21:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok so it will be add /dev/hda1 /media/VistaBoot ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000,fmask=0077,dmask=0022 0 0 t the end of my fstab file?
[21:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia:?
[21:48] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: nope
[21:48] <_2> angasule yeah i think irssi is installed on it.
[21:48] <Fryguy--> shader: you won't be able to ping the router unless it's in your subnet or you have a default route set up
[21:48] <angasule> _2: and /dev/hda2 is identified as hd(0,1) in menu.lst, and fdisk -l /dev/hda sees /dev/hda2 perfectly
[21:48] <|MostroMarino|> Saluti
[21:49] <macrobad> lapteck: lshw or dmidecode
[21:49] <lapteck> !system information
[21:49] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: that is someone elses line and has no use to you
[21:49] <shader> Fryguy--: ok, then what are the options, i.e. places I could have misconfigured it? and how do I figure out which one I got wrong?
[21:49] <angasule> _2: ah, lemme check
[21:49] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[21:49] <Fryguy--> angasule: xchat should be on the livecd, or just install irssi or something quickly
[21:49] <Darknezz> ikonia: o ok. i will look around and try and find it online. but thanks for the help :)
[21:49] <Jokimoto> !slap ubottu
[21:49] <CostaRicanQuaker> then what is my line? i changed the differing element to dev/hda1
[21:49] <shader> Fryguy--: I tried setting a default route, but that didn't seem to change anything. Unless I set up the default route wrong
[21:49] <tommy> hello :P
[21:49] <Fryguy--> shader: what is your gateway and what is the netmask you are using to define you pool of IPs, and what part of that pool is dhcp responsible for
[21:49] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia:?
[21:49] <lapteck> someone tell me how to get system information please
[21:49] <Fryguy--> lapteck: what information do you want
[21:50] <ikonia> lapteck: what sort of info
[21:50] <tommy> wtf?
[21:50] <lapteck> like the computers
[21:50] <ikonia> !wtf | tommy
[21:50] <ikonia> lapteck: what sort of info
[21:50] <angasule> Fryguy--: there is no IRC client that I can see, I don't know why x-chat isn't included...
[21:50] <lapteck> system specs
[21:50] <tommy> -_-
[21:50] <Fryguy--> lapteck: which specs
[21:50] <ikonia> lapteck: anything specific
[21:50] <ikonia> tommy: what ?
[21:50] <ikonia> !topic | tommy
[21:50] <lapteck> i was just trying to get all..
[21:50] <lapteck> like at once if there is that option
[21:50] <ikonia> lapteck: lshw will give you an overview
[21:50] <shader> Fryguy--: gateway: <IP_ADDRESS> netmask: <IP_ADDRESS> dhcp subsection: <IP_ADDRESS>-255
[21:50] <macrobad> lapteck: lshw or dmidecode for detailed info
[21:50] <Fryguy--> lapteck: cat /proc/cpuinfo for cpu information, lspci, lsusb, lshw, free should give you what you need
[21:50] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: what is my line then? i did alter his line to my ntsf location you said hda1 so i edited that
[21:51] <_2> lapteck /proc/slabinfo  has some system specs
[21:51] <matthew__> Fryguy--: how can I have sudo run a command that has spaces in it? It just gives me "command not found"
[21:51] <Fryguy--> shader: ok, and you have defined you ip and netmask as what for your surrent machine
[21:51] <ikonia> matthew__: such as what command ?
[21:51] <Fryguy--> matthew__: what command
[21:51] <matthew__> Fryguy--: oops, I had quotes around it by mistake, removing them seemed to fix it
[21:51] <_2> matthew__ if the command name has spaces in it    quote it.
[21:51] <Fryguy--> matthew__: short answer, use quotes or escape the spaces with \
[21:52] <lapteck> thanks guys
[21:52] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: what is my line then? i did alter his line to my ntsf location you said hda1 so i edited that
[21:52] <_2> none of the common linux command have spaces
[21:52] <nikonadictk> hey how do I configure users on my ubuntu PPTPD server... I cant login from my macbook (set to PPTP) because my username or password is invalid
[21:52] <Yud_Zroc> hello dear children
[21:52] <ikonia> _2: yes, hence why I was curious
[21:52] <shader> Fryguy--: well, I had set the ip to be <IP_ADDRESS> when I was trying static, and the netmask was also <IP_ADDRESS>. would putting the ip in the same range as dhcp cause problems?
[21:52] <Fryguy--> shader: yes
[21:52] <AU-120> hello all
[21:52] <Fryguy--> shader: sometimes
[21:52] <anga> _2: I'm angasule
[21:53] <Fryguy--> shader: what did you set as a gateway
[21:53] <_2> anga
[21:53] <_2> ikonia indeed
[21:53] <shader> Fryguy--: ok, I'll try changing that. I'll be back in a bit.
[21:53] <H__> Question : if you miss a header file (like X11/Xaw/SimpleP.h) how do you find out which deb module this belongs to ?
[21:53] <AU-120> heyy yud
[21:53] <ikonia> H__: apt-file ?
[21:54] <Fryguy--> H__: it's x11-dev, or xorg-dev
[21:54] <ikonia> H__: there is also a dpkg option
[21:54] <takamarou> Hi, I'm having some trouble with my nvidia drivers.  I got them running (after a lot of work) fine, but I just restarted and now I'm back in low graphics mode.  Any help?
[21:54] <H__> ok, i'm new to deb packages. have a hint ?
[21:54] <macrobad> H__: 'dpkg-query -S SimpleP.h' or 'locate SimpleP.h'
[21:54] <DavidVWallin> anyone know how i change the hardy-version into a testing-version please?
[21:54] <ikonia> H__: apt-gile
[21:54] <ikonia> H__: apt-file
[21:54] <temoto-mobi> Is it possible to set SuperL+left/right for virtual desktops switch in Gnome?
[21:54] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: if you have to ask - you shouldn't be doing it at this stage
[21:55] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: that's a function of the window manager you are using, not gnome
[21:55] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: for your own protection
[21:55] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: if you are using compiz, looking compizconfig-settings-manager
[21:55] <Reformer81> I would like to install a game with Wine, but want it available to all users.  How would I do this?
[21:55] <DavidVWallin> ikonia, mind just telling me how? i've been a slackware user since '97 but i'm a bit confused over the apt-get system
[21:55] <temoto-mobi> Fryguy--, what window manager am i using if compiz beauty features turned off?
[21:55] <ikonia> !testing | DavidVWallin
[21:55] <H__> ikonia i'll look into apt-file
[21:55] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: metacity
[21:55] <tim__b> anyone else in here experiancing problems with ttcut + ubuntu hardy? current-frame preview shows only upper third of the current frame.
[21:55] <VelcroMan> http://rafb.net/p/ACeuHf27.html <- I added some prints to know where the error was. I print 123123123. So the for loop is never runned. Any idea why no?
[21:55] <spader3d> what can i do to repair a machine that always start to the X-windows instead of the KDE-window?
[21:56] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: basiclly change your software sources, or use update-manager
[21:56] <CostaRicanQuaker> Fryguy--: can you help me?
[21:56] <DavidVWallin> !testing
[21:56] <Fryguy--> spader3d: X windows and KDE windows are 2 separate layers of things, what exactly are you trying to do
[21:56] <Fryguy--> CostaRicanQuaker: no
[21:56] <amainland> hi, using kde, what is the command to change keyboard shortcuts?
[21:56] <anga> _2: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25783/    and    http://paste.ubuntu.com/25784/
[21:56] <ikonia> !intrepid | DavidVWallin
[21:56] <temoto-mobi> Fryguy--, should i look for ~/.metacity for configs?
[21:56] <AU-120>
[21:56] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: i guess
[21:56] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: pay close attention to the last line of ubottu's comments
[21:56] <temoto-mobi> Fryguy--, thanks a lot.
[21:56] <_2> anga looking
[21:56] <takamarou> Hi, I'm having some trouble with my nvidia drivers being recongnized after a reboot.  Anyone able to help?
[21:57] <Fryguy--> takamarou: "not being recognized"
[21:57] <Fryguy--> takamarou: what
[21:57] <DavidVWallin> ikonia, is there an easy way of getting a newer version of the kernel (newer than 2.6.24-19) from apt-get without using the testing-version then?
[21:57] <Fryguy--> DavidVWallin: no
[21:57] <VelcroMan> Sry, wrong channel :P
[21:57] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: not really
[21:57] <Fryguy--> !kernel | DavidVWallin
[21:57] <takamarou> Fryguy--, I had them working fine, and then I rebooted and I'm back in low graphics mode.
[21:57] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: why do you want a newer version ?
[21:57] <shader> Fryguy--: ok, I tried setting my ip to be <IP_ADDRESS>, and I also tried setting the default gateway again, but it still didn't wok
[21:57] <_2> DavidVWallin i tried the other day to explain to you that this was not debian.  and "testing" is not a seperate release that keeps all the latest stuff....
[21:57] <Fryguy--> takamarou: what driver are you  using
[21:57] <Fryguy--> !work | shader
[21:57] <_2> ikonia see my post to david   ^
[21:58] <ikonia> _2: I did
[21:58] <takamarou> Fryguy--, the one off of the website.
[21:58] <temoto-mobi> For some reason gnome-do doesn't appear on Super+Space and M+Space too. On this notebook. On desktop works fine. What could be the reason?
[21:58] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: is there something specific you want in a newer kernel ?
[21:58] <DavidVWallin> _2, dont think that was me
[21:58] <Fryguy--> takamarou: any reason why you didn't use any of the methods built into ubuntu to get the driver installed?
[21:58] <shader> Fryguy--: ok, pinging <IP_ADDRESS> returns "destination host unreachable"
[21:58] <DavidVWallin> ikonia, get this wlan-card to work. ubuntu 8.04 complains about the wl -module
[21:58] <Fryguy--> shader: pastebin you ifconfig -a
[21:58] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: what makes you think it's fixed in a latter kernel, ubuntu is currently close to bleeding edge
[21:58] <takamarou> Fryguy--, they didn't work.  A lot of people have had the problem, and I followed a guide on the forums.
[21:59] <Fryguy--> takamarou: well apparently the ones you downloaded didn't work either
[21:59] <Fryguy--> takamarou: pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:59] <DavidVWallin> ikonia, heard it from a friend
[21:59] <takamarou> Fryguy--, They did.  They were running fine, up until I restarted
[21:59] <shader> Fryguy--: that would be tricky, I can't copy across computers. No network, remember? I suppose I could type it all in though ;)
[21:59] <takamarou> Fryguy--, OK, give me a second.
[21:59] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: I'd get more info than that, before messing around with things like that
[22:01] <takamarou> Fryguy--, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25787/
[22:01] <H__> ikonia thanks, now i run into a missing library : undefined reference to `panedWidgetClass'. Is there a tool to find which one i'm missing too ?
[22:01] <Fryguy--> takamarou: what resolution do you want
[22:01] <anga> _2: found anything wrong?
[22:01] <ikonia> H__: thats going to be the xorg-devel package
[22:02] <ikonia> H__: what are you trying to compile ?
[22:02] <takamarou> Fryguy--, as large as I can :)  1280x1024 is usually what I do.
[22:02] <Fryguy--> takamarou: 3 lines up from the bottom, where it says "depth", in between that and endsubsection, add a line that says Modes "1280x1024"  and restart X, see what happens
[22:02] <H__> ikonia : vice, i'm debugging an issue
[22:02] <Fryguy--> takamarou: if you still get an error, pastebin, /var/log/Xorg.log
[22:02] <CrocoJet> Hi all, is possible with aptitude ou apt-cache to list all packages of one repository ?
[22:03] <takamarou> Fryguy--, It's isn't even finding the drivers.. that's why I'm in low graphics mode.  You sure that would help?
[22:03] <Fryguy--> takamarou: no i'm not, which is why i told you to do the second part if option 1 doesn't work
[22:03] <temoto-mobi> There is no metacity channel :(
[22:03] <Craigen> heya, i'm trying to change the main-menu buttom to a nice one that i find on Gnome-look, but when i edit in the gconf-editor nothing happens (apps->panel->objects ect.) Can the picture only be x pixel big or?
[22:03] <takamarou> fryguy--, ok, hold on.
[22:03] <temoto-mobi> there are no configs in .metacity. only sessions
[22:03] <H__> ikonia : thanks for the xorg-devel package hint, but how can i find out such things myself ? (for the next missing library ;-)
[22:03] <ikonia> H__: apt-file
[22:04] <H__> ikonia : also works for functions inside libraries ? impressive tool
[22:05] <H__> apt-file find panedWidgetClass gives no result though
[22:05] <ikonia> H__: can do, in that senario, check the config.log to see the test, you'll see what library it's testing for then search on that
[22:05] <Fryguy--> H__: http://www.google.com/search?q=undefined+reference+to+%60panedWidgetClass%27&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[22:05] <takamarou> Fryguy--, my xorg.log appears to be empty.
[22:06] <Fryguy--> takamarou: Xorg.log
[22:06] <bouba> hi
[22:06] <takamarou> yeah.
[22:06] <takamarou> I tried both.
[22:06] <_2> anga still here ?
[22:06] <Fryguy--> takamarou: look in /var/log/, i might have th ename wrong
[22:06] <anga> _2: yes
[22:06] <Fryguy--> H__: looks like you need libXaw-dev
[22:06] <_2> anga where's your device.map ?
[22:06] <takamarou> Fryguy--, this is what I put in: gedit /var/log/Xorg.log
[22:06] <Fryguy--> takamarou: well look in /var/log itself
[22:06] <anga> _2: it was the in the first pastebin link
[22:06] <macrobad> temoto-mobi: have a look on gconf-editor, particularly apps/metacity
[22:06] <Fryguy--> takamarou: i probably have the name wrong
[22:07] <_2> anga ah yeah i overlooked it sorry.
[22:07] <Cobra_Girl> quick question since I'm new and haven't found the answer through a search
[22:07] <anga> _2: it says: (hd0)   /dev/hda
[22:07] <_2> anga and this is dapper right ?
[22:07] <anga> _2: yes
[22:07] <temoto-mobi> macrobad, thanks a lot.
[22:07] <H__> ikonia it's not configure/testing anymore, it's the final link stage where it bombs out
[22:08] <Cobra_Girl> can I enable my wireless connection to automatically connect on startup or do I have to manually set it every time I turn on or reset the computer?
[22:08] <ikonia> H__: ooh really, in that case back pedal the code
[22:08] <anga> _2: nothing was modified, no updates or anything, before it broke up
[22:08] <takamarou> Fryguy--, I have Xorg.0.log, Xorg.20.log, and Xorg.21.log
[22:08] <_2> anga hmmm      sudo umount /dev/hda2 ; sudo e2fsck -p /dev/hda2
[22:08] <Fryguy--> takamarou: .0.log
[22:08] <H__> Fryguy-- thanks, is there a non-google-method, like apt-file for this sort of stuff ?
[22:08] <Fryguy--> H__: no idea
[22:09] <Storrgie> bobertdos: you still here?
[22:09] <takamarou> Fryguy--, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25793/
[22:09] <anga> _2: it's clean, I did a check earlier
[22:10] <_2> anga  a forced check ?
[22:10] <anga> _2: I also checked now, of course
[22:10] <_2> k
[22:10] <H__> Fryguy-- turns out that libxaw and -headers and -dev are already installed ?!
[22:10] <_2> anga  pastebin the fstab for that system and    ls boot/
[22:10] <Fryguy--> takamarou: ok you are right, the nvidia module isn't loading. you'll have to consult the directions you followed to load the module again.  since you installed it in a non-ubuntu way, i have no idea how to help you any more
[22:10] <bobertdos> Storrgie: Yes sir
[22:11] <Fryguy--> H__: ok
[22:11] <takamarou> Fryguy--, ok, thanks for the help.
[22:11] <Ericthegreat> how long should it take to compile gnash?
[22:11] <Storrgie> were you the guy who just helped me get DVD playback working?
[22:11] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: depends on processing power available
[22:11] <Ericthegreat> ps3 so i think not much
[22:11] <Ericthegreat> been like 2 hr tho is that ok?
[22:12] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: probably not. any reason why you are compiling it instead of using the one in the repos
[22:12] <Cobra_Girl> Eric, PS3 in OtherOS is slower, so just leave it be for now
[22:12] <_2> Ericthegreat you can use top to see if it's busy or idle
[22:12] <anga> _2: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25795/  and  http://paste.ubuntu.com/25796/
[22:12] <shader> Fryguy--: here's the ifconfig -a pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25797/
[22:12] <Blaenk> !java
[22:13] <Ericthegreat> hmm k idk how to do that but it just moved a bit after like 10 min...
[22:13] <shader> Fryguy--: sorry it took so long, I had to type it in :)
[22:13] <Mrevox11> Hey everyone. I was able to get my wifi working after a few hours of doing research and I was able to finally install the mp3 codec by adding some multiverses and etc. Now I have another problem. I have compiz fuzion installed and I am able to select options and effects but none of them work. Any help on getting them to work. Im wanting effects like fire and water. Some one please help.
[22:13] <Fryguy--> shader: and you can't ping <IP_ADDRESS> with that?
[22:13] <Scunizi> !ccsm | Mrevox11
[22:13] <KenBW2> i installed a web server to my computer to view PHP files locally. I now want to be able to view them from a networked laptop. How can I do this?
[22:14] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: glxinfo | grep -i direct
[22:14] <shader> Fryguy--: nope.
[22:14] <Mrevox11> Its already installed.
[22:14] <Ericthegreat> i would recommend you just install vlc media player
[22:14] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: and look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to make sure that composite is enabled
[22:14] <_2> anga i would modify the root line in fstab only usable option there is "defaults"
[22:14] <shader> Fryguy--: anything else at all that could be wrong?
[22:14] <Fryguy--> shader: no idea
[22:14] <_2> try that anga see if it helps.
[22:14] <Cobra_Girl> so no ideas on having to reset password for wifi every time I turn the computer on?
[22:14] <Mrevox11> it says direct rendering : Yes
[22:14] <Fryguy--> shader: stupid question, but is ethernet plugged in
[22:14] <shader> Fryguy--: my default route?
[22:14] <WebcamWonder> Does anyone know if Ubuntu supports WPA2 out of the box?
[22:14] <Scunizi> Mrevox11: you have to enable fire and water for the "tasks" that you want it to apply to .. I suggest asking the folks in #ubuntu-effects
[22:14] <_2> anga or comment out the root lie in fstab     that's a good test.
[22:14] <Fryguy--> shader: your route doesn't matter, you aren't leaving the subnet
[22:14] <ikonia> WebcamWonder: depends on your card
[22:15] <anga> _2: ok, thanks, I'll try both of them, rebooting
[22:15] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: it works fine w/ my atheros and madwifi, but as said, really depends on the card
[22:15] <_2>       FYI  an fstab entry is not needed for the root fs.
[22:15] <WebcamWonder> ikonia: If the hardware supports, it will support it as well right?
[22:15] <anga> _2: didn't know that, thanks
[22:15] <shader> Fryguy--: well, the lights at both ends of the cable are on, so I would presume so
[22:15] <ikonia> WebcamWonder: no, it depends on the hardware and the linux driver available for that hardware
[22:15] <Mrevox11> Fryguy: Direct Rendering : Yes
[22:16] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: i heard you the first time.  I had asked you to do 2 things however
[22:16] <beautifulsnow> Ok ive had hardy heron since it came out, but *now* none of my media players feel like playing anything. What gives?  It goes to play, then doesnt  play. no error msg....
[22:16] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: what is your wireless device
[22:16] <_2> anga it "may" be used by something like "update-grub" so i would have one.  but it's not needed to starty a system.
[22:16] <macrobad> shader: a firewall is blocking ping?
[22:16] <Mrevox11> what were they?
[22:16] <WebcamWonder> ikonia: OK, cause I have a rather old card and I was trying to connect it to WPA2 earlier and it just couldn't
[22:16] <shader> macrobad: I don't think so. all of my other computers can ping
[22:16] <WebcamWonder> ikonia: It is a D-Link Airplus... if I remember correctly...
[22:16] <_2> starty  heh
[22:16] <WebcamWonder> IndyGunFreak: It is a D-Link Airplus... if I remember correctly...
[22:17] <putterson> is there a way to keep a window from stealing focus when I drag and drop something from it...say a tab in firefox to my instant messenger window?
[22:17] <KenBW2> i installed a web server to my computer to view PHP files locally. I now want to be able to view them from a networked laptop. How can I do this?
[22:17] <Fryguy--> putterson: you can try a different window manager, lots of window managers have lots of different settings for things like that
[22:17] <shader> macrobad: however, ping is not my goal. ping returns "destination host unreachable." does that imply firewall?
[22:17] <Fryguy--> shader: no
[22:17] <__yy> KenBW2: point the web browser on your laptop at the computer with the web server.
[22:18] <jbroome> KenBW2: from the same lan?  enter the IP address of the machine running the web server.
[22:18] <putterson> Fryguy--, can I configure metacity to have this functionality?
[22:18] <_2> xfwm putterson
[22:18] <Fryguy--> shader: if you were playing around with your default route it could mess things up, just remove all routes
[22:18] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: still need more specific info about the device, like model #
[22:18] <Fryguy--> putterson: no idea
[22:18] <shader> Fryguy--: then what?
[22:18] <putterson> Fryguy--, if I wanted to find out where would I start?
[22:18] <Fryguy--> shader: try again
[22:18] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: but if its as old as you say it is, does it support WPA under windows?
[22:18] <shader> Fryguy--: ok
[22:18] <Mrevox11> Ok Fryguy. In the .conf file there is nothing that says composite in it.
[22:18] <Fryguy--> putterson: google for metacity configuration syntax
[22:18] <WebcamWonder> IndyGunFreak: Don't have it now, cause I don't have it installed nor handy, will get back as soon as possible... Ubuntu did give me an option of WPA
[22:18] <Chaotic_Descent> when someone told me to use dhp something to refresh my IP settings or something so I could connect to my router, why did it permanently screw up my internet connection, requiring me to restart the computer to get it to work again?
[22:18] <putterson> Fryguy--, thanks
[22:18] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: you need to add that for compiz to work right
[22:18] <Mrevox11> ok.
[22:19] <WebcamWonder> IndyGunFreak: So, I guess I can configure my router to go back to WPA
[22:19] <KenBW2> jbroome: You mean the same as how i would on the PC but replacing the <IP_ADDRESS> with the PC's IP address?
[22:19] <Mrevox11> can you point me to a tut or just tell me what line of text to add?
[22:19] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: thats an option of course... but if WPA works, i would think WPA2 would..
[22:19] <_2> short of "hal" how can one monitor the usb bus ?
[22:19] <Scunizi> Fryguy--: remember xorg doesn't control video on a lot of machines anymore.. it's all xrandr. so there's a huge difference between xorg on an upgraded machine and a fresh install.
[22:19] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: maybe you did it wrong?  Maybe it was a freak occurance... no way to know tbh.
[22:19] <idx> So I'm not using Ubuntu anymore. It worked fine until about two months ago, possibly after an update, after which it failed to recognise my Buffalo Wireless-G USB Adapter which had been working perfectly beforehand. Ideas?
[22:19] <macrobad> shader: you may also wish to try running 'sudo tcpdump -i eth0' in order to verify that you're getting and sending something
[22:20] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: very bottom of xorg.conf   Section "Extensions"  Option "Composite" "Enable"  EndSection
[22:20] <Fryguy--> Scunizi: xrandr is a library for xorg
[22:20] <jbroome> KenBW2: yes
[22:20] <KenBW2> k, thanks
[22:21] <Chaotic_Descent> __yy: so how do I get my internet to work without having to restart my computer?
[22:21] <Fryguy--> shader: try replacing cable as well. I wonder if you have a bad cable
[22:21] <macrobad> shader: sorry, it looks that you've received and sent quite a lot of packets on that interface since last reboot, so it shouldn't be the case, unless it has just stopped working.
[22:21] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: what?
[22:21] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: ifdown eth0 and ifup eth0
[22:22] <Chaotic_Descent> Fryguy--: what?
[22:22] <idx> So I'm not using Ubuntu anymore. It worked fine until about two months ago, possibly after an update, after which it failed to recognise my Buffalo Wireless-G USB Adapter which had been working perfectly beforehand. Ideas, please?
[22:22] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: ifup eth0 and ifdown eth0
[22:22] <Fryguy--> idx: if you aren't using ubuntu, then why are you asking in here? i'm confused
[22:22] <idx> Fryguy--: I want to use it again.
[22:22] <_2> what is going on here....  if i try to install nvidia-glx-legacy it wants to install an i386 kernel   ???
[22:23] <beautifulsnow> Becacuse hes asking for help on how to amke it work, Fryguy--  ?
[22:23] <idx> But I can't, since I cannot access the internet within it
[22:23] <Chaotic_Descent> Fryguy--: what does that mean?
[22:23] <Fryguy--> _2: binary drivers require to be matched up with the kernel they were built for
[22:23] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: run those commands
[22:23] <hamburglar> hey Fryguy--
[22:23] <Mrevox11> Fryguy: Please take a look at the tail end of my xorg.conf and tell me if this is correct before I save it     http://paste.ubuntu.com/25798/
[22:23] <Chaotic_Descent> ifup: failed to open statefile /var/run/network/ifstate: Permission denied
[22:23] <Blaenk> hey how do I check if a package is installed using aptitude?
[22:23] <beautifulsnow> idx did you file a bug report when that updated messed up your wireless ?
[22:23] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: looks fine
[22:23] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: you need to sudo both those commands
[22:24] <jedimind> is there a built-in cvs client in ubuntu? if so - how do i use it
[22:24] <idx> beautifulsnow: Sadly, no
[22:24] <Chaotic_Descent> oh. they're separate commands.
[22:24] <Fryguy--> jedimind: sudo apt-get install cvs probably
[22:24] <alleand> hi everyone. i have a question on how to install the drivers for Geforce cards, when i open the restricted drivers manager it says that none are used on my system.
[22:24] <__yy> jedimind: sudo apt-get install cvs
[22:24] <Mrevox11> Now what do I do fry guy?
[22:24] <ikonia> alleand: click "enable"
[22:24] <idx> I thought it was an intermittant fault with the adapter. But it works fine in Windows
[22:24] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: restart X
[22:24] <_2> Fryguy-- so nvidia drivers require 386 and 686 wont work ?
[22:24] <jedimind> __yy: any idea on how i would just simply export a cvs module ?
[22:24] <Mrevox11> log out and log in?
[22:24] <Fryguy--> _2: some of them do, yes, you are installing a legacy driver it seems
[22:24] <jedimind> as in - i could use an example :)
[22:24] <alleand> ikonia: there are no options, the list is empty.
[22:25] <_2> Fryguy-- and sound requires 868 and 386 wont work...
[22:25] <ikonia> alleand: what card do you have
[22:25] <Fryguy--> alleand: you might have an nvidia card that doesn't use the restricted drivers then
[22:25] <alleand> ikonia: Geforce 9600GT
[22:25] <Fryguy--> _2: then you'll have to hand compile something
[22:25] <ikonia> alleand: ughhh brand new
[22:25] <Fryguy--> alleand: not supported with that restricted driver
[22:25] <__yy> jedimind: export a cvs module?
[22:25] <DIL> i have a computer with several drives attached that i want to share to home users how do i enable those drive to have shared status
[22:25] <Fryguy--> alleand: try envy, or install driver manually from nvidia
[22:25] <xif> Hi. What is .gvfs doing in my ~, and can I safely delete it?
[22:25] <jedimind> checkout a cvs module to a dir
[22:25] <_2> Fryguy-- yeah....   ;/
[22:25] <Fryguy--> xif: no you can't delete it
[22:25] <sandriman> macrobad: o/
[22:25] <bpa> hello all, I am having trouble configuring the permissions correctly to get a perl script to be able to do ifconfig commands.  I just installed the perl-suid package, and I have set the SUID for the perl script and for a copy if the 'ifconfig' program that I moved to /bin.  I am still getting errors like: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Permission denied SIOCSIFHWADDR: Operation not permitted SIOCSIFFLAGS: Permission denied. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[22:26] <xif> Fryguy--: OK, what is it if you may?
[22:26] <Fryguy--> xif: virtual filesystem stuff that gnome uses for mounts
[22:26] <__yy> jedimind: cvs checkout path_to_repo probably. Read the man page, it will tell you
[22:26] <xif> Fryguy--: I see, thanks.
[22:26] <alleand> fryguy-- : i did download the driver from nvidias site, but when i try running it in the terminal it says i cant open the file
[22:26] <Fryguy--> alleand: need some more details than that
[22:26] <idx> Any ideas regarding my Buffalo Wireless-G USB adapter not workin? I've searched the forum, there are posts but no answers.
[22:27] <obf213> how come ff3 on ubu is missing save tabs for next session on quit
[22:27] <_2> angasule  ?
[22:27] <alleand> fryguy-- : sh: Can't open nvidia-linux-x86_65-171.14.09-pkg2.run
[22:27] <ikonia> obf213: I get asked
[22:27] <JoelC1976> I have a question about 8.04 and problems changing resolution. Anyone have time?
[22:27] <Fryguy--> alleand: what are the permissions on the file
[22:27] <Fryguy--> !anyone | JoelC1976
[22:27] <angasule> _2: didn't work :( I'm rebooting again into the live cd
[22:27] <beautifulsnow> For my microphone to work (right now its just stactic) what do you guys think i should put on Sound Preferences? I got everything else to AutoDetect, but MICROPHONE does not have AUTODETECT as an option
[22:27] <obf213> ikonia: what? you asked that or you get asked that all the time
[22:28] <ikonia> obf213: I get asked to save tabs on exit
[22:28] <_2> angasule what is the exact error message    and it's context if you can
[22:28] <angasule> _2: I tried both commenting out and changing it to 'defaults', it still says "no such device" when trying to mount /dev/hda2
[22:28] <__yy> idx: just telling us it's not working really doesn't give enough information to help you. Does ifconfig ssay you have an IP? Does iwconfig show you connected to a network?
[22:28] <obf213> ikonia, really. i wonder why I don;t
[22:28] <angasule> _2: when it tried to mount root it says something like "trying to mount /dev/hda2 on /root: no such device"
[22:28] <_2> angasule that sounds like an initramfs issue.   do you get a busybox shell ?
[22:29] <idx> __yy: Obviously, I'm not in Ubuntu right now.
[22:29] <angasule> _2: yes, I get busybox, funnily enough the 'vi' command isn't there? :/
[22:29] <ReZBiT> try /dev/hda2 /
[22:29] <Mrevox11> Fryguy: I restarted X. It told me that ubuntu is running in lowgraphics mode. I configged everything properly back to its old settings and now its displaying everything in 800x600 and cant enable any advanced graphics settings.
[22:29] <idx> But I don't think the connection even exists
[22:29] <__yy> idx: yes, that makes it very hard to help you
[22:29] <JoelC1976> I have only 800x600 and 640x480 as choices for my display resolutions. When I was running 6.06 I had no issues with my display at all and was able to run much higher.
[22:29] <idx> The logs tell that it tries to set up eth0 but gets stuck somewhere
[22:29] <alleand> fryguy--: not sure, is the option "enable to run as program" supposed to be klicked?
[22:29] <_2> angasule vi ?  what would you edit ?
[22:29] <Resnick> Is there anyway to access the trash folder via commandline? I have searched for a .Trash folder but only root has one. I have a couple of files I want to get rid of with root permissions, but Ubuntu is a little different then what I am used to. Any help is appriciated.
[22:29] <Fryguy--> alexanderwz: yes
[22:29] <idx> No lights are on on the stick.
[22:29] <Fryguy--> alleand: yes
[22:30] <VoiSbLoNdE_> hi ppl
[22:30] <Fryguy--> alleand: use ls -l to see the permissions on the file
[22:30] <__yy> idx: ok, do you have the specific error
[22:30] <alleand> fryguy--: oki, ill try that
[22:30] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: looks like you have an fglrx that doesn't support compositing then
[22:30] <_2> angasule anyway when in the busybox shell try inserting these drivers      modprobe ide-disk ;modprobe ext3
[22:30] <idx> __yy: No, just that "no network connection is present"
[22:30] <angasule> _2: hmm, /etc/fstab after mounting manually?
[22:30] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: you'll have to check out the wiki for getting compiz working with it then, I don't have any more specific advice for you. sorry.
[22:30] <Mrevox11> ok well looks like Ill just have to live without compiz fuzion. Now. How do I go about reversing all of this?
[22:30] <idx> __yy: Or something. Two computers and a red cross where the wireless indicator should be.
[22:31] <_2> angasule you can't mount manually until it can be mounted and when it can then you can exit and init will finish booting.
[22:31] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: just remove/comment the 3 lines I told you to add and restart x
[22:31] <Ericthegreat> oh here something when i try and dual boot ubuntu on my pc i get no option for a guided install only use whole disk or manuel and idea hoow to fix that?
[22:31] <shader> Fryguy--:  I finally got it to delete all of the routes. ping still returns "destination host unreachables"
[22:31] <idx> __yy: Lights do appear when it boots. But Ubuntu rejects it before it comes up with the log in screen
[22:31] <linuxkrn> yo everyone, does anyone know how to get dmraid working on a intel moble sata raid 82801 controller?  dmraid reports no disks, but "dmraid -b" shows two drives (raid-0)
[22:31] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: use partitioning software to partition the disk before you install ubuntu then
[22:31] <_2> angasule seeing that you have a way to talk to me, while within the busybox shell boot to there and i'll walk you through getting your system running.
[22:32] <__yy> idx: I don't use gnome, so what the gui shows doesn't mean anything to me. Try starting ubuntu and doing 'ifconfig yournetworkdevice' to see if you have an IP, and then 'iwconfig yournetworkdevice' and check if essid is set to the name of your network device.
[22:32] <Ericthegreat> i c thats what i was told b4 gparted i think it was called
[22:32] <angasule> _2: ok, it'll be a bit slow, the two computers are in different rooms :)
[22:32] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: yes
[22:32] <__yy> idx: essid is set to the name of your wireless network, sorry, not device
[22:32] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: or partition magic, or whatever
[22:32] <Ericthegreat> k
[22:32] <Mrevox11> Well if it were only that easy fryguy. I just opened my xorg.conf and it doesnt look anything like it did before.
[22:32] <pen> is there an alternative to cheese (photobooth like app)
[22:32] <alleand> fryguy--: hmm...it looks like its working now, but it asks me to exit X server before im able to run the install. hos do i do that?
[22:32] <pen> ?
[22:32] <_2> angasule and when you have it up and running you can rebuild the initramfs.img so it will boot without the hassel.
[22:32] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: so look in /etc/X11/ and pull one of the backup files
[22:33] <_2> angasule ok,    just take note.  :)
[22:33] <pen> is there an alternative to cheese (photobooth like app)? because cheese is buggy and doesn't have much effects as other do
[22:33] <Fryguy--> pen: gimp
[22:33] <pen> Fryguy--, real time effects
[22:33] <pen> Fryguy--, gimp doesn't have that
[22:33] <Fryguy--> pen: sorry misread
[22:33] <jbroome> Fryguy--: do you know what photobooth does?  'cause gimp isn't it
[22:33] <Fryguy--> jbroome: i misread
[22:33] <VoiSbLoNdE_> how can i reset the ALSA config?is there some string that can i use?
[22:33] <jm2k> hi
[22:33] <Flannel> pen: Theres plenty of webcam apps that take pictures/video
[22:33] <powertool08> What are some options for encryption for an already populated drive?
[22:34] <Fryguy--> powertool08: truecrypt
[22:34] <linuxkrn> yo everyone, does anyone know how to get dmraid working on a intel moble sata raid 82801 controller?  dmraid reports no disks, but "dmraid -b" shows two drives (raid-0)
[22:34] <pen> I personally like the youcam from HP, but I can't find the equivalent app in ubuntu
[22:34] <JoelC1976> I loaded 8.04 and am unable to select any resolutions other than 800x600 and 640x480. Worked fine under 6.06.
[22:34] <jm2k> IBM T41P wireless stopped working, cant enable or use again. How do i re-enable it?
[22:34] <jbroome> !resolution | JoelC1976
[22:34] <Mrevox11> ok fryguy. I see an xorg.conf.failsafe  is that it?
[22:34] <pen> JoelC1976, do you know xorg.conf? try it
[22:34] <Fryguy--> JoelC1976: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add the resolutions you want manually
[22:34] <powertool08> Fryguy--: Is that in the repos?
[22:34] <Fryguy--> powertool08: maybe
[22:35] <Fryguy--> powertool08: google + apt-cache will tell you
[22:35] <powertool08> Fryguy--: Ok, thanks :)
[22:35] <JoelC1976> Ok, I'll give that a try.
[22:36] <idx> __yy: If the essid is wrong, what then?
[22:36] <Doc><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[22:36] <Doc> blah
[22:36] <alleand> fryguy--: do you know how to run the file without having X Server running?
[22:36] <__yy> idx: then you're trying to connect to the wrong network.
[22:36] <shader> macrobad: I don't know where all of the bytes came from. I'm pretty sure I haven't had network, otherwise I wouldn't have to work so hard to get it to work. Maybe pinging a lot can account for it?
[22:36] <__yy> idx: try 'sudo iwconfig yournetworkdevice essid yourwirelessnetwork; sudo dhclient yournetworkdevice'
[22:36] <idx> Ah, I see. No, the network is fine. Ubuntu is just refusing to recognise the adapter, that is all
[22:37] <nxusr> how do you auto hide panel on kde4?
[22:37] <jm2k> how do i check if wireless is enabled?
[22:37] <Fryguy--> alleand: yes just run it from a terminal
[22:37] <Fryguy--> alleand: same way you would run any app
