[10:14] <tech0008> amjad: we renamed your .openarena directory, now run openarena..it should recreate a new .openarena dir
[10:14] <coir> bazhang: ok, thank you.
[10:14] <l__> flannel once i get into the installer is there a way to cli the system?
[10:14] <amjad> ok .. let's see
[10:14] <joaopinto> l__, however that script and the instructions you are following are live cd specific
[10:14] <Flannel> l__: Not with the Desktop CD, no.
[10:14] <l__> no the alternate
[10:15] <l__> here sorry for the triple paste
[10:15] <l__> l__> i even mount -o loop the iso copied out the initrd.gz and the vmlinuz placed it into a folder /ubuntu edited my grub menu and got into the install that way. But i cant type cli to do a client base install.
[10:15] <amjad> tech0008, it worked !!! thank you so much man !!!!
[10:15] <l__> now that will boot me into the install
[10:15] <amjad> :D
[10:15] <bazhang> !yay | amjad
[10:15] <l__> but can i cli from there some how? the grub menu doenst come up it goes strieght to the alternate install
[10:16] <tech0008> amjad: we reset everything to default in openarena...if that's ok...you can run 'rm -r .openarena.bak' to delete the nonworking config
[10:16] <rawbeef> Can anyone help with tihs? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=827739
[10:16] <Flannel> l__: The alternate CD can install a CLI system, yes.  One of the options is command line only.  You may have to hit the F key for "more options" though (depending on your Ubuntu version)

[10:43] <martinus> Hi, I was wondering if anyone here could help out with some text mode install of kde from cd. I know it is the wrong forum, but since it's a more general apt issue some here might be able to help as well :)
[10:43] <sidewalk> kelvin911: oki, ill try that, thanks alot! :-)
[10:43] <glitsj16> psypointer: that means the http client you used didn't set a valid host name in the request .. from within which app are you receiving that error ?
[10:44] <psypointer> glitsj16: from the debian installer
[10:44] <slax> bonjour à tous
[10:45] <tech0008> !fr | slax
[10:45]  * zaggynl grins
[10:45] <slax> thanks a lot ;)
[10:45] <psypointer> glitsj16: the debian installer downloads all files from an apt-cacher. the apt-cacher doesn't create an error message in his logfiles..
[10:45] <colourAgga> wow
[10:45] <colourAgga> !nl | colourAgga
[10:45] <glitsj16> psypointer: whoops, never encountered that from an install ..
[10:46] <sidewalk> kelvin911: the openoffice "export to pdf" function can compress the images much better than cups
[10:46] <sidewalk> gotha go now, take care
[10:46] <psypointer> glitsj16: hmkay, thanks anyway
[10:46] <kelvin911> sidewalk: of course

[10:50] <logixoul_> Hi. I've installed the elousb driver for my touchscreen, and it works, but it's not calibrated. Is there any app I can use to calibrate it without guessing at the xorg.conf coord numbers?
[10:50] <night> is anybody there like talking to me
[10:51] <martinus> icqnumber: thanks for the reply. The thing is, I'm installing ubuntustudio without a wired internet-connection. since I prefer kde over gnome, I'm installing it without the US-desktop. this leads to a command-line install, from where I have to apt both X and kde
[10:51] <tech0008> martinus: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:52] <night> i need a bit of help
[10:52] <martinus> icqnumber: I have these on a kubuntu 8.04 cd, but even though I've managed to list the cd in sources.list, apt-get only reports that it cannot find the package
[10:54] <elyseum> anybody else had problems with playing audio-cd's after updating to Hoary?
[10:54] <martinus> icqnumber: sudo apt-cdrom add seems to unmount the cdrom - but mounting it again makes no difference

[11:03] <Bodsda> onats, well, you set it to a value, but it disobeyed you and is larger, so set it smaller to compensate

[11:05] <wild_oscar> I've tried to follow the guide in the ubuntu docu
[11:05] <wild_oscar> I basically have a laptop with a built-in IR receiver
[11:05] <l_> nice
[11:05] <wild_oscar> and I want to use a remote control to control it - so I can program xine to use it
[11:06] <wild_oscar> I have installed lirc
[11:06] <Bodsda> wild_oscar, -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallLirc/Hardy
[11:06] <omid> bodsa ! I'm new to ubuntu, tell me with more detail please! forgive me!
[11:06] <wild_oscar> Bodsda: yes, I've followed that guide
[11:07] <wild_oscar> first, in the "choose a remote" I don't know if I should choose "custom", "None" or the "Sir IRdA"
[11:07] <Bodsda> omid, sorry,    open a terminal     Applications --> Accessories--> Terminal         and type        'asoundconf list'            (without quotes)   the tell me what happened
[11:08] <l_> what kind of remote do you hae
[11:08] <l_> have
[11:08] <omid> just Intel
[11:08] <Bodsda> wild_oscar, sorry, apart from that how to i cant help as have never set up lirc, sorry
[11:08] <Bodsda> omid, ok, thats not the problem
[11:08] <wild_oscar> l_: I've tried a bunch - the dvd, the television
[11:08] <l_> haha
[11:09] <wild_oscar> Bodsda: cheers. if I'm here, I've probably done the basic stuff already ;)
[11:09] <Bodsda> wild_oscar, noted
[11:09] <l_> try the Sir IRdA its more all around
[11:09] <omid> Bodsda, what should I do with this?
[11:09] <wild_oscar> l_: yes, that's the one I tried
[11:09] <Schneemonster> whats the command to switch to the server profile after installing from the alternate cd?
[11:09] <Bodsda> omid, nothing, dont worry about it,.,. l
[11:10] <l_> wild im stumped should have worked get one of those programable ones
[11:10] <wild_oscar> l_: then I tried the mode2 -d /dev/lirc0, thinking this command would receive any communication, regardless of whether it's configured in lirc.conf or not
[11:10] <Bodsda> omid, you said you here sound for less then a second... explain more plz
[11:10] <i01nsu> hi all
[11:10] <Bodsda> hi
[11:10] <l_> maybe modprobe it?
[11:10] <omid> I feel it's because my soundcard is Autodetect jack and I cannot config it in ubuntu,
[11:11] <Bodsda> omid, no, you only have 1 soundcard so that should work
[11:11] <omid> Bodsda, when my soundcard detect I connect External speaker it don't play sound
[11:11] <Bodsda> omid, can you, in a terminal type                killall pulseaudio             then try and play something
[11:11] <i01nsu> I have a litle doubt: installing apache at /configure it give me an error > checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables | anyone knows what should I do ?
[11:12] <Bodsda> i01nsu, have you installed   build-essentials      ?
[11:12] <i01nsu> guess not .. ok .. nice tip . thz
[11:12] <wild_oscar> l_: have you successefully installed lirc?
[11:12] <l_> yes
[11:13] <Bodsda> i01nsu, you need build-essentials    and if you still get the same error, install     gcc
[11:13] <omid> Bodsda, Did not happen anything
[11:13] <l_> on my previous but it was pretty hard
[11:13] <Bodsda> omid, no sound?
[11:13] <wild_oscar> l_: what should I test to see if the receiver is working?
[11:13] <omid> No sound
[11:13] <i01nsu> Bodsda:  gcc is instaled.. gcc -v 4.3.2
[11:14] <l_> modprobe  it then run the previous command i dont think its modprobed yet
[11:14] <Bodsda> omid, in the top right hand corner of the screen there should be an icon of a speaker... does it have a cross over it?
[11:14] <wild_oscar> l_: lsmod |grep lirc yelds
[11:14] <Bodsda> i01nsu, did it work after you installed    build-essentials?
[11:14] <wild_oscar> lirc_sir and lirc_dev
[11:14] <wild_oscar> those are the neccessary modules, correct?

[11:15] <omid> Bodsda, I've sound on my Internal Speaker, but when I connect External speaker... no sound on that
[11:16] <Bodsda> omid, is your externel speaker connected?
[11:16] <i01nsu> I see Bodsda , but I am looking for at add  & remove software.. guess there is no pack for that..
[11:16] <Bodsda> !nickspam | MTecknology
[11:16] <Bodsda> i01nsu, in a terminal type          sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[11:16] <MTecknology> Bodsda, sorry, I was screwing around int offtopic

[11:17] <kishorekumar> Hello.. There is no SHUTDOWN option in any of my menus. How to get it???
[11:17] <i01nsu> Bodsda:  :( impossible to install
[11:17] <MTecknology> kishorekumar, what do you mean?
[11:17] <omid> Bodsda, I'm not only person that have this problem, I found many thing about this problem in ubuntu forum
[11:18] <Bodsda> kishorekumar, the top right corner of the screen, there is a button at the far corner, press it, a window should pop up with a shutdown button
[11:18] <MTecknology> kishorekumar, System > Quit ???
[11:18] <Bodsda> omid, ah, can you send me a link to the forum thread please
[11:18] <kishorekumar> Bodsda & MTecknology: there is no option for shutdown in any of the menus( system etc..)
[11:19] <omid> Bodsda, ok! wait a min!
[11:19] <travken> hi etat ja kap4oniy
[11:19] <kishorekumar> only LOGOUT & LOCKSCREEN are available
[11:19] <Bodsda> kishorekumar, lol,.,. what did you do?
[11:19] <Bodsda> travken, language?
[11:19] <MTecknology> kishorekumar, did you start gnome using startx ?
[11:19] <omid> bodsda http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-444126.html
[11:19] <travken> ketajske
[11:19] <travken> a cibe??
[11:20] <kishorekumar> no. it automatically starts up.
[11:20] <kishorekumar> yeah but there is one strange thing
[11:20] <Bodsda> omid, what distro are you using? fiesty, gutsy, hardy?
[11:20] <MTecknology> kishorekumar, try halt from command line and see what happens when you come back
[11:20] <i01nsu> Bodsda:  I can't install .. E: impossible to install
[11:20] <Bodsda> MTecknology, isnt there a   sudo shutdown now    command?
[11:21] <Bodsda> i01nsu, can you give me a pastebin of your terminal plz?
[11:21] <kishorekumar> during startup. it says.. GNOME cannot be started as it is not default display manager..
[11:21] <kishorekumar> starting kdm..
[11:21] <omid> hardy
[11:21] <onats> everytime i reboot, the display of X reverts to failsafe gdm mode. maybe there's a flag that i have to unset?
[11:21] <kishorekumar> then when I login
[11:21] <i01nsu> Bodsda:  is not in english .. but I can if you want
[11:21] <kishorekumar> it starts gdm.
[11:21] <MTecknology> Bodsda, it's -now, but ya
[11:21] <Bodsda> omid, then the link you gave me shouldnt affect you as its a prior distro,.., sorry im not sure what to suggest
[11:21] <kishorekumar> and both gdm & kdm are running in my processes
[11:22] <Bodsda> i01nsu, ah, wont help then
[11:22] <Bodsda> kishorekumar, killall gnome
[11:22] <onats> help
[11:22] <glitsj16> i01nsu: might seem unrelated, but do you have any special needs from apache that you are compiling it instead of using apt ?
[11:22] <Bodsda> kishorekumar, it may be failing to start because there is a non-responsive process of it running
[11:22] <Bodsda> glitsj16, good question
[11:24] <i01nsu> Bodsda:  the only error is: > E: Impossible to find the pach build-essentials |||| Glitsj16 didn't understand .. u asking for what i need apache?
[11:24] <omid> :'( I want sound on my speaker.... any other idea people?!
[11:24] <wild_oscar> any LIRC expert available?
[11:24] <Bodsda> i01nsu, hes asking why you dont install apache from sunaptic -- and have you enabled all your repositories?
[11:24] <joaopinto> i01nsu, no, he asking why are you bulding it from source instead of using the package on the repositories
[11:24] <glitsj16> i01nsu: not why you need it, why you want to build it manually ..
[11:24] <wild_oscar> which could help me configure LIRC on a laptop with a IR receiver?
[11:24] <wild_oscar> how can I test if the port is receiving any signal?
[11:25] <kishorekumar> like MS Windows isn't there any option for sleep or standby in linux.
[11:25] <kishorekumar> only lock screen is available.
[11:25] <chori> I have a radeon hd 2600pro graphic card with 5.1 sound out via hdmi and can get it to work in vlc but not wih other program. aplay -l shows the card, asoundconf list shows HDMI but in alsamixer I only have IEC958 as Item. Any ideas?
[11:25] <Bodsda> kishorekumar, yes there is, in the shutdown window you dont have
[11:25] <tech0008> kishorekumar: system->preferences->power management
[11:26] <i01nsu> ahh .. ok .. so the patch's from sunaptic are diferent from the add/remove "link" ok ok .. still noobi at ubuntu
[11:26] <Bodsda> chori, what happens if you do         asoundconf set-default-card HDMI
[11:26] <chori> Bodsda: gives no error, what to check after?
[11:27] <Bodsda> i01nsu, you keep using the word patch.. there is a package in synaptic pre-built ready for your needs or you can 'compile' from source,.,.
[11:27] <Bodsda> chori, lol,.,. no errors is a good thing, does your sound work now?
[11:27] <omid> No Sound On Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy, TOSHIBA notebook Satellite P105-S9337, Conexant Soundcard, Internal Speaker working fine, But External Speaker don't working in Ububtu
[11:27] <ikonia> omid: have you turned on the external speaker port ?
[11:27] <ikonia> omid: you may laugh, it's a common mistake
[11:28] <i01nsu> Yeah - I got that now.. didnt saw the option synaptic.. here there is lots of apache packs/mods.. good stuff!! thz for tips
[11:29] <omid> yes! I cannot get sound in my turned on speaker, it's working fine in Windows but don't work in Ubuntu, I cannot get sound in headphone too! headphone don't need to turn-on   ;) haha!
[11:29] <Bodsda> i01nsu, your welcome, also the terminal is usefull type           sudo apt-get install apache<tab>               <tab> means press the tab button, if nothing happens, press the tab button a few times and it will show all packages beginning with apache
[11:29] <ikonia> omid: the ports do need to be turned on
[11:29] <ikonia> omid: not the physical devices
[11:30] <i01nsu> Bodsda:  ^^
[11:30] <chori> Bodsda: no :/ Amarok still doen't work. Says something about audio device busy. Mpd says "jack server not running?
[11:30] <chori> "
[11:30] <nbiz> anyone come unstuck with booting degraded software RAID-1 devices [Hardy x86]? I've done it (again), the device (/dev/md3) doesn't even 'exist' in busybox (but md1 and md2 do). I was moving from Windows with fakeraid, trying not to keep the data from NTFS, and setting up RAID1  partitions. So close..
[11:30] <greek_user> [Q] In the Hardy-heron shell how do I disable the feature that suggests me that I install a package when a command is missing ?
[11:30] <chori> Bodsda: but vlc still gives sound out
[11:31] <erUSUL> omid: add a line like this to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base "options snd-hda-intel model=toshiba" (at the end of the file is fine)
[11:31] <omid> ikonia: my Headphone port that I get sound is Autodetect jack and I know it stop sound when detect my External Device, do you know how I can disable it?
[11:31] <Bodsda> chori, sorry, beyond my knowledge
[11:31] <ikonia> nbiz: software raid as in linux software raid, or fakeraid devices ?
[11:31] <Bodsda> erUSUL, -- you may need to be a little more specific for him
[11:31] <ksorg> hi all
[11:31] <Bodsda> hi
[11:32] <tech0008> greek_user: uninstall command-not-found
[11:32] <nbiz> ikonia: both... moving TO linux software raid (à la mdadm) but FROM BIOS fakeraid NTFS windows stuff.
[11:32] <ksorg> есть русскоязычные товарищи?
[11:32] <i01nsu> synaptic is very good! give the description of source ^ glad to know this stuff
[11:32] <ikonia> nbiz: ok, thats a good move, what's the problem ?
[11:32] <tech0008> !ru | ksorg
[11:32] <chori> Bodsda: can it be missing mods? Know how to find what mod to modprobe?
[11:32] <ksorg> thanks
[11:32] <erUSUL> omid: did you understood me?
[11:32] <Bodsda> chori, no sorry,.,.ask ther channel, someone else might no
[11:33] <greek_user> tech0008: thank you
[11:33] <omid> yes! how I can open it with administrator permission?
[11:33] <chori> Bodsda: everyone is sleeping :) Thanks for the help
[11:33] <ah> bin gerade über netztwerke in GNOME in einem Netzwerk und möchte auf einen Server zugreifen bzw einen Unterordner des Servers.  Was tun?
[11:33] <ikonia> omid: sudo
[11:33] <omid> ok
[11:33] <ikonia> !de | ah
[11:33] <erUSUL> omid: to edit the file you can do "gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base"
[11:33] <Bodsda> omid, gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base              in a terminal
[11:34] <ah> oh my dear, pardon, I'll change channel, sorry
[11:34] <nbiz> ikonia: problem is, md3, my new, big but degraded (ie one disk) partition with data coming from the old big partition, is dying on bootup. Device not found, mdadm fails -> can't access md1 (root partition) boot stops as (there's a bug report somewhere about this)
[11:35] <ikonia> nbiz: thats two errors, md3 and md1 - ? how are they related
[11:35] <omid> and now I must reboot?
[11:35] <tech0008> how can i make hardy mount my psp automatically? it used to work.
[11:35] <Bodsda> !fstab | tech0008
[11:36] <erUSUL> omid: yep
[11:36] <tech0008> Bodsda: tried that
[11:36] <omid> ok! I will back in a few min! Thanks! hope it work!
[11:37] <Bodsda> tech0008, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[11:37] <ikonia> tech0008: it's most likley the volume lable causing an issue, what is the psp volume lable ?
[11:37] <greek_user> [Q] I had used FreeBSD in the past, and it had a cool shell feature: when you typed a partial command and used the up/down keys in the shell, only those commands from history that begun with what i had typed so far were appearing. Can I have this functionality in ubuntu 8.04 ?
[11:37] <Bodsda> omg! your! welcome!
[11:37] <ikonia> greek_user: what shell was it ?
[11:37] <tech0008> greek_user: tab key
[11:38] <Bodsda> greek_user, up/down arrow keys show recently used commands, and <tab> key auto finishes commands/file names/paths
[11:38] <jatt> does flash work for amd64 systems with hardy heron? (without a 32bit chroot).
[11:38] <Bodsda> jatt, yes
[11:38] <ikonia> jatt: there are options to use it, the sucess rate is varied
[11:38] <Bodsda> ikonia, err,. i installed yesterday and can use flash (64 bit distro)
[11:39] <ikonia> Bodsda: did you read what I said "there are options to use it, the results are varied though"
[11:39] <ikonia> Bodsda: I didn't say "it doesn't work" or "can't be done" - I'm using it hear.
[11:39] <ikonia> here
[11:39] <jatt> that's great. Hopefully JAVA Firefox Plugin works too in amd64 without emulating 32bit
[11:39] <ikonia> jatt: again, not nativly
[11:39] <Bodsda> ikonia, options? sorry, it sounded like you meant it was dificult to get working
[11:39] <jatt> if yes I will upgrade from dapper to heron
[11:40] <logixoul_> Hey, I get the error described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/233950. Can anyone help?
[11:40] <ikonia> Bodsda: it can be, and it doen't work on all sites/all systems
[11:40] <Bodsda> ikonia, ok.,,.ty
[11:40] <ikonia> logixoul_: why ar eyou trying to build your own kerne ?
[11:40] <ikonia> kernel ?
[11:40] <omid_> NO SOUND NO SOUND!
[11:40] <jatt> ikonia: what does "not nativly mean"? Do I need a 32bit chroot to see java applets in an amd64bit system with hardy heron?
[11:41] <erUSUL> jatt: i installed the icedtea baesd java plugin and it somehow works but i do not use it heavily
[11:41] <ikonia> jatt: the java plugin is not 64bit
[11:41] <omid_> but I was rebooting ubuntu, when it was loading I got a noise on my External speaker, but Now, NO SOUNDDDDDDDDDD
[11:41] <jatt> do I need compatibility libs (like lib32 (or similar package))?
[11:41] <greek_user> For example, I used:    1) vi test.c  2) gcc test.c   3) vi sample.c 4) gcc sample.c   Now if i only type "vi" and use up/down, only vi test.c and vi sample.c appear, instead of the full history. Also that would be usefull if you type "sudo" and then up-down. Only the sudo commands appear. Tab is that case is not appropriate. I think it was bash (on freebsd).
[11:41] <Bodsda> !shout | omid_
[11:41] <ikonia> jatt: depends on how you use it, but you will need some form of environment to run the 32bit stuff
[11:42] <jatt> I see
[11:42] <malikb> i have a cd with kubuntu8.04-64bit... how can i upgrade from gutsy __without__ fetching packages from the web?
[11:42] <omid_> Sorry! Forgive me!
[11:42] <tech0008> omid_: did u hear the gnome login?
[11:42] <ikonia> greek_user: what shell wher eyou using in bsd
[11:42] <greek_user> ikonia: it was bash
[11:42] <gnuub> hello
[11:42] <gluonman> What is the best way to compile C++ programs in Ubuntu? I'm not knew to C++, just used to it in Visual Studio. I am using Scite to write the code, and I can save it as a text file, but how do I run the program?
[11:42] <omid_> tech0008 no!
[11:43] <ikonia> greek_user: I've never seen bash work with that, you sure you didn't have "set -o vi" in your profile ?
[11:43] <Bodsda> !compile > gluonman
[11:43] <tech0008> omid_: what did u hear while rebooting?
[11:43] <Bodsda> gluonman, please read the pm from ubottu
[11:43] <greek_user> I'll have to check it
[11:43] <jatt> g++ program
[11:43] <greek_user> thanks for now
[11:43] <ikonia> greek_user: something similar can be done with "set -o vi"
[11:44] <ikonia> greek_user: or "exec bash -o vi"
[11:44] <omid_> a sound like that sound you hear when you are connection a speaker, a noise
[11:44] <gluonman> Bodsda, alright. I'll be back if the information wasn't useful.
[11:44] <greek_user> ikonia, let me check that :) thank you!
[11:44] <Bodsda> gluonman, ok ;~)
[11:44] <gnuub> could you please tell me how to change refresh and resolution on desktop and on login window?
[11:46] <omid_> tech0008:   a sound like that sound you hear when you are connection a speaker, a noise
[11:46] <omid_> tech0008: can you understand me? When I connect External Speaker, I Hear my Music for about 2 Sec and Then it mute...!
[11:47] <tech0008> !patience | omid
[11:50] <greek_user> ikonia, how do i disable set -o vi ?
[11:50] <omid_> I cannot use my "Fingerprint", My "Dual Monitor", My "Speaker" and many thing else in Ubuntu....
[11:50] <greek_user> +o ?
[11:51] <greek_user> ok, i think i found it...
[11:53] <ne2k__> what package supplied inetd on ubuntu, and where does it get started? I've just installed tftpd-hpa and it doesn't seem to be working... further examination reveals that there is no inetd process running and I can't seem to work out if it's even installed!
[11:54] <wangerclump> do i need to download drivers for Realtek ALC889A in ubuntu?
[11:55] <omid_> Where I can get in tool to config my AutoDetect headphone jack?
[11:56] <Bodsda> !find inetd
[11:57] <Bodsda> !info update-inetd | ne2k__
[11:57] <wangerclump> who is that for?
[11:57] <ne2k__> Bodsda: so, is there no inetd installed by default? there doesn't seem to be one running
[11:57] <Bodsda> ne2k__, im not sure, i just thought ubottu might no
[11:58] <wangerclump> do i need to download sound drivers?
[11:58] <ne2k__> how can you have a unix system without inetd? this is insane!
[11:58] <ifireball> ne2k__: no, doens't seem to be installed by default, plenty to choose from though
[11:59] <Bodsda> what is inetd?
[11:59] <ifireball> ne2k__: inetd is a very old and obsolete concept, nothing serious uses it nowdays
[11:59] <ne2k__> seems strange that the default install of tftpd-hpa on ubuntu uses inetd, but doesn't require it to be installed. that is broken, imo
[11:59] <bazhang> !find inetd
[11:59] <Bodsda> bazhang, did that ;~)
[12:00] <ifireball> ne2k__: just use tftpd
[12:00] <wangerclump> do i need to download sound drivers?
[12:00] <Bodsda> !patience | wangerclump
[12:00] <tech0008> wangerclump: not usually
[12:00] <wangerclump> sorry!
[12:00] <Bodsda> wangerclump, oh, apologies, that was meant to say plz wait 5 minutes before reposting
[12:00] <ne2k__> ifireball: it's not in the repository. apt-cache search tftpd returns only tftpd-hpa
[12:00] <ifireball> ne2k__: its a pseudo-package that installs what you need and depends on one of the tftp servers
[12:01] <Bodsda> why did the ops change a perfectlt good factoid?
[12:01] <wangerclump> pushing the up arrow is so much easier! :)
[12:01] <Bodsda> perfectly*
[12:01] <ifireball> ne2k__: its in universe
[12:01] <bazhang> !repeat
[12:01] <onats> how do i upgrade the kernel version?
[12:01] <onats> im still on <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:02] <wangerclump> well im trying to use a program called hydrogen and it says error starting audio driver
[12:02] <ne2k__> ifireball: whut?
[12:02] <tech0008> onats: output of 'uname -r' ?
[12:02] <ifireball> ne2k__: in the universe repository, did you enable it?
[12:02] <arvind_khadri> onats, shoot up synaptic and download the latest kernel
[12:02] <wangerclump> but the sound works in Hda Intel (alsa mixer)
[12:02] <onats> tech0008, its <IP_ADDRESS>-generic
[12:03] <tech0008> onats: make sure you have 'linux-generic' package installed
[12:03] <onats> tech0008, checking...
[12:03] <ifireball> ne2k__: if you want to avoid enabling other repos just install xinetd on openbsd-inetd
[12:04] <ne2k__> ifireball: I've never heard of having different levels of repository. I used synaptic and it found it, but apt-cache search didn't. this is weird.
[12:04] <Andycas> When i try ndiswrapper -l the program hangs. Right before that i was messing with -mi -ma -m options
[12:04] <ifireball> ne2k__: very new to ubuntu arn't you?
[12:04] <ifireball> !repos
[12:04] <ne2k__> ifireball: yep. been using debian for years.
[12:05] <tech0008> lol
[12:05] <Andycas> how to remove ndiswrapper completly so it wouldnt store a single configuration file (i did not build it, used dep package)
[12:05] <ifireball> ne2k__: take a look at synaptic's repo configuration screen, ubuntu did a LOT of changes there
[12:06] <ifireball> ne2k__: anyway, seems ubuntu avoids installing an inetd by default, I thing this is wise, security-wise
[12:07] <Andycas> Can someone tell me why lspci and lsusb hangs when i try to use them?
[12:07] <tj83> does anyone know where to find a good weather desktop widget?
[12:07] <ne2k__> ifireball: yeah, I guess it's fair enough
[12:08] <bazhang> tj83, with compiz or without
[12:08] <tj83> bazhang, with compiz
[12:08] <bazhang> !info screenlets
[12:08] <bazhang> see above tj83
[12:09] <tj83> bazhang. thanx
[12:10] <ne2k__> this is really flipping confusing. I just installed tftpd with synaptic, it succeeded, and dpkg -l |grep tftp returns nothing. what is going on?
[12:11] <tj83> bazhang, i have installed screenlets... how to open or configure?
[12:11] <Andycas> my lsusb doesnt work, it hangs when i use it. lspci works fine however. Whats wrong?
[12:11] <mooky> test
[12:11] <onats> tech0008, i have the linux-generic package
[12:12] <bazhang> tj83, what about alt f2 screenlets
[12:12] <onats> arvind_khadri, which package should i install?
[12:12] <ne2k__> it claims in synaptic package details to have installed /usr/sbin/in.tftpd, but in fact it hasn't
[12:12] <ifireball> ne2k__: not sure, does dpkg -l list virtual packages?
[12:12] <osfameron> Andycas: I don't know, but do you have any more info - like, does it output *anything* before hanging?  If so, what's the last thing it outputs?  And have you recently installed new hardware etc.?
[12:12] <tech0008> onats: 'sudo apt-get update', then 'sudo apt-get upgrade' then 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'
[12:12] <tj83> bazhang, nm I fount the manager under preferences... no "screenlets" didnt do anything
[12:12] <arvind_k> onats, do you have all the repos enabled...sometimes the new kernel is given through proposed updates...
[12:13] <onats> tech0008, won't that upgrade me to 8.04?
[12:13] <ne2k__> ifireball: it simply hasn't installed any of the files it says it has. this is broken, if you ask me
[12:13] <Bits> after updating to 8.04, I lost my flash... how do I get it back?
[12:13] <onats> arvind_k, yup, its all ticked, except sources
[12:13] <logixoul_> Hi. Where can I download a full tarball of the xorg's source as used in Hardy?
[12:13] <Andycas> osfameron: It does not output anything, it just hangs there, ctrl c doesnt have any effect on it either. syslog does not have anything relating to it either. I did install usb wifi device, tried to get it working with ndiswrapper but did not work. Ive plugged it out now...
[12:13] <ikonia> logixoul_: xord is modular
[12:13] <arvind_k> onats, ok which ubuntu are you using??
[12:13] <ikonia> logixoul_: xorg sorry
[12:13] <onats> arvind_k, 7.10
[12:14] <osfameron> Andycas: and if you reboot without the usb device, does it still hang?
[12:14] <Andycas> osfameron: havent tried. Will do
[12:14] <arvind_k> onats, ok...maybe the team hasnt put the latest kernels up for 7.10...
[12:14] <onats> i see
[12:14] <arvind_k> onats, which you said you have
[12:15] <fale_> hi
[12:15] <ifireball> ne2k__: never seen anything like that happen, I don't think its broken, though I never tried those packages
[12:15] <onats> so i guess i'm still up to date...
[12:15] <fale_> I wanted know where can I find libboost-system in the ubuntu rep... is there?
[12:15] <arvind_k> onats, :) ya
[12:15] <onats> ayt..
[12:15] <arvind_k> onats, dont worry updates will come to you automagically
[12:15] <tech0008> fale_: 'apt-cache search <packagename>'
[12:16] <onats> actually i need to fix up my machine, coz display's not working properly
[12:16] <arvind_k> onats, ok whats the issue??
[12:16] <onats> installed a new nvidia 7600GS card.. now display is incorrect..
[12:16] <gluonman> Is anyone familiar with Scite Text Editor?
[12:16] <onats> its always reverting to gdm failsafe mode...
[12:16] <ifireball> ne2k__: does "dpkg -L inetd" work?
[12:16] <fale_> tech0008: well, ubuntu 8.04 have the old libboost where there wasn't include, than I think it will be with another name, like asio
[12:17] <ne2k__> ifireball: inetd is not installed
[12:17] <arvind_k> onats, hmm tried configuring X
[12:17] <ifireball> ne2k__: or maybe "dpkg -l \*inetd\*" ?
[12:17] <ne2k__> ifireball: I uninstalled it. I'm trying the tftpd-hpa again, as that actually installs
[12:17] <onats> arvind_k, yup. every restart brings it back to failsafe mode. which i think has something to do with drivers
[12:17] <ne2k__> ifireball: in daemon mode
[12:17] <arvind_k> onats, you dont have the drivers??
[12:18] <ifireball> ne2k__: well, that may be a batter idea anyway
[12:18] <glitsj16> onats: anything usefull in /var/log/Xorg.0.log to debug your setup ?
[12:19] <ne2k__> it would be wonderful if it worked
[12:20] <JonathanEllis> HI. I have a problem with the "pdf file generator" printer. When I print it doesnt seem to create a pdf file. I googled and found that the default output path is ~/PDF. This directory didnt exist so I created it, but the pdfs do not appear here. Has anyone else had a similar problem?
[12:20] <xrc> with what programms in Ubuntu can I detect network bandwidth, latency, packet loss (besides ping) and even simulate packet loss?
[12:20] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis: nope..check if cups-pdf is installed
[12:21] <ifireball> ne2k__: try openbsd-inetd its in the main repo, better quality controls there, never seen a broken package in universe, but who knows
[12:21] <ne2k__> ifireball: and which tftp server?
[12:21] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis: also see the "print to file" option..is different from the pdf printer and allows you to choose the location of the pdf
[12:21] <arvind_k> xrc, iptraf
[12:21] <arvind_k> xrc, i guess so
[12:21] <ifireball> ne2k__: tftpd-hpa seems to be the only one in the main repo
[12:22] <eleetmind> how do i move files from a command line in example i have 300 files inside of one folder. I dont want to move the folder its self just all of the files to another folder. I know its mv but whats next
[12:22] <ifireball> ne2k__: (just follow the brown logo in synaptic...)
[12:22] <ne2k__> ifireball: what about xinetd? it's supposed to be better, isn't it?
[12:22] <s4phir> hi all
[12:22] <gwp> for some reason I lost my task manager and my minimized programs bar, how do I get them back?
[12:23] <anirudh0> eleetmind: mv does everything
[12:23] <ifireball> ne2k__: not sure if update-inetd creates proper configuration for it, YMMV, I haven't tried any of this stuff in years
[12:23] <eleetmind> anirud0 how do i just get the files inside? mv -R /home/user/folder /somefolder this moves the whole folder i just want the files inside
[12:24] <anirudh0> eleetmind: do a mv <folder>/* <new-location>
[12:24] <Bits> !flash
[12:24] <anirudh0> eleetmind: * is a bash wildcard ...stands for "everything in the folder"
[12:24] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: cups-pds is installed. When I print to it, a progress bar counts up to 100% so i appears to be working. Just that the file doesnt appear in ~/PDF. Is the "print to file" option just available in Firefox or is it part of ubuntu?
[12:24] <jrib> eleetmind: mv /home/user/folder/{*,.*} <new-location>
[12:24] <eleetmind> aww thats nice :)
[12:25] <jrib> eleetmind: * only stands for "everything that does not start with a '.'"
[12:25] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis: its there in most apps..so i guess its part of ubuntu
[12:25] <anirudh0> eleetmind: yes
[12:25] <eleetmind> thank you
[12:25] <s4phir> is it possible to extend my wireless lan and connect my pc to the second access point which is connected wirelessly to the first one?
[12:25] <arvind> onats, use envy

[12:25] <DIFH-iceroot> i am using a software (fake) RAID 1 System. i want to install ubuntu on this RAID 1 but ubuntu is showing the 2 hdds, how can i install ubuntu on the RAID 1 array in the GUI installation-programm?
[12:25] <anirudh0> eleetmind: in that case use *.* in place of *
[12:26] <eleetmind> okay
[12:26] <JonathanEllis> s4phir: Yes but you need to buy an access point that is capable of running as a wireless client
[12:26] <jrib> anirudh0: that still won't work
[12:26] <anirudh0> jrib: ?
[12:26] <Bodsda> jrib, what are you trying to do
[12:27] <eleetmind> so its going to be like this mv -R /home/user/folder/*.*,.* /newfolder
[12:27] <JonathanEllis> s4phir: Alternatively why dont you just put a wifi card in your pc?
[12:27] <jrib> anirudh0: *.* won't glob ".foo", it won't glob "foo" either
[12:27] <DIFH-iceroot> ubuntu is showing sda6 (etx3) sdb 6 (ext3) sda7 (swap) sdb7 (swap) but i can only use sda or sdb
[12:27] <jrib> Bodsda: help eleetmind :)
[12:27] <jrib> eleetmind: you need the braces I had, it gets expanded
[12:27] <eleetmind> aww
[12:27] <anirudh0> jrib: ahh..yes..sorry
[12:27] <Bodsda> jrib, and whats he trying to do?
[12:28] <anirudh0> Bodsda: cp hidden files
[12:28] <jrib> eleetmind: and there isn't any -R switch for mv
[12:28] <husnu> slm
[12:28] <husnu> naber
[12:28] <Bodsda> anirudh0,  /.*
[12:28] <eleetmind> so its going to be like this mv /home/user/folder/{*.*,.*} /newfolder
[12:28] <i01nsu> anyone knows any graphical FTP server ?
[12:28] <jrib> Bodsda: he is coping the contents of a directory to another
[12:28] <jrib> s/copying/moving
[12:28] <jrib> eleetmind: no, use * instead of *.*
[12:28] <eleetmind> and everything including hidden files
[12:28] <eleetmind> aww okay
[12:28] <Bodsda> jrib, cp /path/somewhere/.* /path/to/anywhere
[12:28] <anirudh0> Bodsda: the guy in question wants one cmd to copy everything..normal+hidden
[12:29] <eleetmind> so its going to be like this mv /home/user/folder/{*,.*} /newfolder
[12:29] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: If I can use the "print to file option" does that mean it is safe to remove "pdf_file_generator"?
[12:29] <jrib> eleetmind: yes, that should work
[12:29] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis: i am not sure..but my guess is, no
[12:29] <eleetmind> :P thank you
[12:29] <|Kamen|> is the packages site down?
[12:30] <Bodsda> eleetmind, just do this         mv ~/folder/*. /newfolder && mv ~/folder/* /folder
[12:30] <eleetmind> wow now im confused
[12:30] <eleetmind> aww
[12:30] <eleetmind> okay i got it
[12:30] <Bodsda> eleetmind, just do this         mv ~/folder/*. /newfolder && mv ~/folder/* /newfolder
[12:30] <eleetmind> move everything in the first wildcard to folder and then do second wild card
[12:30] <anirudh0> Bodsda: eleetmind 's earlier syntax clubbed the 2 into 1
[12:30] <Bodsda> eleetmind, made a mistake first time
[12:31] <anirudh0> Bodsda: {.*,*}
[12:31] <jrib> bobstro: mistake still there though :)
[12:31] <Bodsda> anirudh0, yeah, but it was nasty lookin and horribly difficult to understand
[12:31] <jrib> Bodsda: mistake still there though :)  ".*" instead of "*."
 My problem was putting wifi inside a moored boat. So I had a wireless router on the shore transmitting to a wifi antenna on the top of the boat. The DWL-900AP received the wifi signal and converted it to ethernet. Then inside the boat I had another wireless router to broadcast the signal to my laptop. It worked quite well.

[12:52] <Heroin> my firefox keeps crashing iam using Firefox3 (just updated)
[12:52] <Bacta> glitsj16: Can't even get a Terminal, I'm gonna have to reboot...could my issues be to do with running the beta of 8.04?
[12:52] <psaikido> Heroin: firefox3 seems pretty unstable
[12:52] <anirudh0> adrian1520: your drive was ntfs right?
[12:52] <IndyGunFreak> Heroin: FF3 has been really wonky in its beta releases.. I went back to FF2 and all has been fine
[12:52] <anirudh0> Bacta: you are in gnome?
[12:52] <Bacta> yes
[12:52] <glitsj16> Heroin: ok, same procedure, try "firefox-3 -safe-mode"
[12:52] <psaikido> Heroin: ff2 much better
[12:52] <sivaji>  Heroin start from terminal so that you can find the reason for crash
[12:53] <Bacta> maybe I should upgrade
[12:53] <anirudh0> Bacta: alt f2 works?
[12:53] <Heroin> sivaji: yah i will do that
[12:53] <Bacta> but I can't find the upgrade option under updates
[12:53] <anirudh0> Bacta: you need to run update-manager -d(iirc)..or apt-get dist-upgrade

[13:00] <|Kamen|> hm. bah, already installed the other one. one sec...
[13:00] <oldenglish> because im used to hitting tilde for a console
[13:00] <anirudh0> oldenglish: well..there might be some screenlet that does it..plasma in kde4 has a nice plasmoid for that
[13:00] <nyuu> ow hi
[13:00] <anirudh0> oldenglish: install tilda
[13:00] <anirudh0> oldenglish: quake style terminal :)
[13:00] <nyuu> I have installed kde on my  ubuntu and I want to remove gnome
[13:01] <tech0007> tilda is cool
[13:01] <nyuu> how can I do it
[13:01] <xyre> sudo apt-get intsall tilda :D
[13:02] <nyuu> ?
[13:02] <anirudh0> nyuu: one sec
[13:02] <nyuu> ok
[13:02] <_Ben> afternoon all!
[13:02] <cl3cew> I AM COMMER
[13:02] <erUSUL> !caps | cl3cew
[13:02] <onats> arvind_khadri, i dont have the envy package
[13:03] <anirudh0> nyuu: there is an article on psycocats.net about this...google for "pure kde psycocats"...first link
[13:03] <nyuu> yea I have tried it before
[13:04] <nyuu> but it removes firefox or something too
[13:04] <nyuu> I want to remove only the main gnome
[13:04] <anirudh0> nyuu: then just remove firefox from the list
[13:04] <nyuu> ok
[13:04] <nyuu> and the other problem is
[13:04] <_Ben> i was hoping for a little advice.. i have a sco unix box here at work and need to keep an audit trail of what users do when they ssh or telnet into it. are there any programs that do that on linux? my software house point blank say its impossible
[13:05] <oldenglish> strange. i installed tilde and its just a grey blob whenever i bring the console down.
[13:05] <oldenglish> tilda*
[13:05] <nyuu> when I tried that script, my kubuntu was crashed too so I had to reinstall it
[13:05] <IndyGunFreak> why do i keep getting a keybinding error w/ tilda?
[13:05] <Nchalada> oldenglish, i had / have the same problem... couldn't fix it
[13:05] <nyuu> ok
[13:05] <ne2k__> _Ben: I would suggest that you replace sshd and telnetd with your own "modified" alternatives that to logging
[13:05] <nyuu> maybe I should try this again
[13:06] <ne2k__> _Ben: you might find you end up with some pretty huge log files if you're not careful, though
[13:06] <_Ben> ne2k__ thanks. is that the only way to do it? all we really need is to track if files get deleted and if 'dbaccess' is launched and the output it gives
[13:06] <ifireball> _Ben: on debian/ubuntu, the system does it for you in /var/log/auth.log
[13:07] <medfly> how do i get playback (by command - i cant get gnome-volume-manager thingie to work, on xubuntu here...)
[13:07] <_Ben> ifireball: thanks. unfortunately our server is stuck with a 2001 release of sco
[13:07] <medfly> playback for mic :D
[13:07] <Pxrboy> would anyone know why when i try and start Pidgin IM the window opens, and then closes immediately? i checked and the process itsself stops running aswel... :(
[13:07] <ozkelligirl> hi all
[13:08] <IndyGunFreak> medfly: microphones can be a pain depending on the sound device
[13:08] <ifireball> _Ben: you can get complete shell logging by wrapping the shell with "script"
[13:08] <Rioting_pacifist> medfly: im not sure if this is what you need, but alsamixer controlls volumes from the comand line
[13:08] <ne2k__> _Ben: there's always more than one way to do it ;-) you could pump your logs through a script that only logs the bits you're interested in and dumps the rest
[13:08] <medfly> IndyGunFreak, well, the mic does work, at least on skype, i just want playback
[13:08] <IndyGunFreak> hmm,
[13:08] <ifireball> _Ben: e.g. I suppose you can replace a users shell in /etc/passwd with script or just run it from his .profile or .bash_profile
[13:09] <medfly> Rioting_pacifist, yeah... i don't know how to make it have playbacxk there.. thanks :)
[13:09] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: try starting pidgin from terminal, that way it might spill some error messages .. without those you're in the darik
[13:09] <ne2k__> _Ben: you could move dbaccess to dbaccess.real and write a script called dbaccess that runs dbaccess.real | tee logfile
[13:09] <shakir> hi guys
[13:09] <Pxrboy> glitsj16: il give it a try :)
[13:09] <logixoul_> Hi, what package has the xorg sources?
[13:09] <acech> Hi All!
[13:10] <acech> I hope that you are well..
[13:10] <shakir> i would like to knw...why is it whenever i use pidgin there's no sound at all???it's as if my sound card is disabled and i cant hear anything
[13:10] <ne2k__> _Ben: depends on how meticulous you want to be. if you want something that no-one can get around, you're going to have quite a lot of work. if you just want to catch the majority of cases, that might work
[13:10] <_Ben> ne2k__ I like your style... any way to prevent access to dbaccess.real witout having run dbaccess?
[13:10] <ifireball> _Ben: what ne2k__ said only with "script -c dbaccess log.file" instead
[13:10] <ne2k__> ifireball: yep, sorry, |tee is crap ;-)
[13:11] <Rioting_pacifist> medfly: i never got my microphone to work, there are a couple of commands like arecord to do it on the lowest level, on a GUI level all i know about is kre but im sure there are equivelent xfce or gnome tools
[13:11] <ne2k__> ifireball: maybe script -c dbaccess $* log.file
[13:11] <ifireball> _Ben: using informix there?
[13:11] <|Kamen|> tech0007: Gnaural is installed and appears to be working. thank you for your help
[13:11] <_Ben> yes
[13:11] <ne2k__> ifireball: or do I mean script -c "dbaccess $*" log.file
[13:11] <SoulChild> Hi all, is there a way to set my terminal resolution to 1280x800 ???
[13:12] <acech> I am trying to share the home directory of my ubuntu machine with a windows machine. I have installed samba and the appropriate lines in the smb.conf. However when I try and access it from windows, although it is browsable, when I try to open my home directory I get a 'is not accessible' error.
[13:12] <SoulChild> i mean console-resolution
[13:12] <acech> Any ideas?
[13:12] <ne2k__> _Ben: well, you could make dbaccess.real executable only by root, then suid root the wrapper script, but that's a bit ugly
[13:12] <medfly> Rioting_pacifist, woah, arecord is weird.
[13:12] <asena_^^> slmm
[13:12] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: anything usefull pidgin-wise ?
[13:12] <medfly> Rioting_pacifist, thanks. i mean by playback, i want to hear the noise coming out of my speakers as well. i'm a freak like that:)
[13:12] <asena_^^> kimse
[13:13] <asena_^^> yokmuu
[13:13] <asena_^^> alooo
[13:13] <asena_^^> :)

[13:13] <azcazandco> I recently bought a laptop and installed ubuntu on it straight away and am now trying to use it as a replacement for my desktop but I am having issues with dual screen.  I have my laptop on the right and want to use my main monitor as my primary but I cannot get it to work as an extended desktop for the life of me.  Any suggestions?
[13:13] <_Ben> ne2k__ thats kind of what I was thinking but the people have root access anyway.
[13:14] <ne2k__> azcazandco: what have you tried, what happens?
[13:14] <oldenglish> azcazandco: What kind of video card are you using?
[13:14] <ne2k__> _Ben: there's very little way of stopping someone who has root access doing anything at all ;-)
[13:14] <FloodBot2> NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now.
[13:14] <Rioting_pacifist> medfly: im suprised theres no microphone setting in alsamixer or the gnome tool, you could always pipe arecord to aplay or something wierd as a tempary fix
[13:14] <_Ben> ne2k__ the problem is our system is maintained by a software house with 400+ employees and we dont know how many of them know our password
[13:14] <JannoTT> Is there way to make x-chat send identify command on startup?
[13:15] <ne2k__> _Ben: if someone has root access they can change and/or delete the log files anyway, so I see this as rather pointless
[13:15] <azcazandco> is an nvidia 6100 go, I have thwe drivers and I have tried both twin view and also separate x but both times I get a signal out of range error
[13:15] <ne2k__> gotta go
[13:15] <_Ben> ne2k__ many thanks

[13:17] <tzfardea> Hi, how can I play shn files?
[13:17] <Pxrboy> ok, ive tried opening Pidgin in terminal, spewed a large message which i dont know what to do with so would someone be able to take a gander at it? :)
[13:17] <_Ben> ifireball can you advise further? I was thinking it may be possible to pipe the log output to an xml service on a server under my control. that way users with root access on the unix box would not be able to delete the logs.
[13:18] <medfly> Rioting_pacifist, like... arecord > aplay?
[13:18] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: use the paste.ubuntu.com service, report back with the url that gives you after copy/pasting the errors and i'll have a look

[13:19] <JannoTT> Is there way to make x-chat send identify command on startup?
[13:19] <medfly> voodoo, could be an addon
[13:19] <voodoo> no
[13:19] <medfly> JannoTT, ctrl+S

[13:20] <medfly> JannoTT, uhm... is that xchat-gnome
[13:20] <JannoTT> yes
[13:20] <adrian1520> voodoo: you have to type about:config and scroll to the default search engine. that's how i fixed mine a while back.
[13:21] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: okay, give me a minute, i'll report back
[13:21] <medfly> JannoTT, ah.. that is for the ordinary \xchat... look for "network list" somewher e, maybe

[13:22] <voodoo> adrian1520, any other suggestion?

[13:22] <JannoTT> medfly: oh found it. Thanks!
[13:23] <Rioting_pacifist> medfly: yeah you probably need some wierd --variables and i think it would use | instead of >

[13:23] <jrib> m-c: read the changelog
[13:23] <medfly> o.o
[13:23] <m-c> jrib: The changelog said no information available at this time
[13:23] <azcazandco> no worries
[13:23] <logixoul_> Hi, what package has the complete xorg sources?
[13:23] <adrian1520>  Voodoo: no, type about:config scroll to Keyword.URL and change it to http://www.google.com
[13:24] <m-c> jrib: at least that's what it said in the update manager.  Is there a better change log to look at?
[13:24] <jrib> m-c: that's because the changelog server is slow, you should still be able to look at it in the source package I guess
[13:24] <ifireball> _Ben: wow, I can't believe ppl still use that... was a good DB in its day though...
[13:25] <voodoo> adrian1520, it's google, all right?
[13:25] <x1250> ubuntu comes with any app to install fonts? Its just I can't find it, so to look at the repos then
[13:25] <Rioting_pacifist> how do i find out what program is using a port?
[13:25] <m-c> jrib: My understanding was that the update manager was only going to push out security patches.  Isn't this x-server software just the new version released this week, first new version in 1.5 years?
[13:25] <ifireball> ne2k__: that would mean users get root access when they run it, I think it has a drop-to-shell command...

[13:27] <jarco> hello. i have a clean uuntu install (latest version) +all updates. Still all traffic to my xp computer is slow. No firewal on the xp side and no limits. Tried ftp + samba and both are about 4kb/s; Anyone has any idea?
[13:27] <mib_aanhvl> Vedestin, just make a script and add it to /etc/rc.local
[13:27] <c_lisp> im not sure
[13:27] <jrib> m-c: http://paste.ubuntu.com/19873/
[13:27] <Pxrboy> ok :)
[13:28] <_Ben> ifireball, it used to be a tty only system which they recently made 'pretty' using 4js
[13:28] <mib_aanhvl> Vedestin, my /etc/rc.local is:  modprobe ndiswrapper; /home/me/wireless.sh; exit 0
[13:28] <m-c> Trevelyan`: Why do you not want to post a bug ?
[13:28] <Vedestin> ok, cheers mib_aanhvl
[13:28] <ifireball> _Ben: sorry, awfully lagged here, ISP is acting up... about the logging, I know syslog can send the logs to another machine, not sure how can you make script log into it though
[13:28] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: did you activate/configure anything like that recently ? Just asking, might give me some more info on a possible fix ..
[13:28] <m-c> jrib: Wow, thanks for checking on this for me.  I really appreciate it.  Where did you find it?
[13:29] <and> surabaya
[13:29] <_Ben> ifireball ok thanks. I'll put some presure on the developers...
[13:29] <Trevelyan`> because a) i don't know where ubuntu tracks them, i'm not an ubuntu user, and b) it would mean creating another account somewhere that i'm unlikely to use again
[13:29] <jrib> m-c: I downloaded the source package (apt-get source PACKAGE) and looked at debian/changelog
[13:29] <Trevelyan`> i figured someone here would have such an account.
[13:29] <Pxrboy> not that i know would affect it, just installing some new programs like skype and WINE
[13:29] <adrian1520>  why do i get permission denied if im root and i type " /dev/sda5 /media/Vista 64 ntfs-3g force 0 0"
[13:30] <and> setjjjr
[13:30] <jrib> adrian1520: because /dev/sda5 is not a command?
[13:30] <jarco> hello. i have a clean uuntu install (latest version) +all updates. Still all traffic to my xp computer is slow. No firewal on the xp side and no limits. Tried ftp + samba and both are about 4kb/s; Anyone has any idea?

[13:31] <jarco> on ubuntu?
[13:31] <oldenglish> yes
[13:31] <Pxrboy> but no change
[13:31] <jarco> any idea how ?
[13:31] <m-c> jrib: Also, this *does* seem to be the 1.4.1 version that was released on June 10th.
[13:31] <oldenglish> jarco: yes hold on finding a good walkthrough
[13:32] <adrian1520>  well wasn't that dumb, then why did it tell me to type that in
[13:32] <jarco> ok
[13:32] <ircleuser> hello
[13:32] <cyclobs> hi
[13:32] <jarco> lo
[13:32] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: okay thanks, this is a long shot, but could you check whether you have a package called "libgnutls13" installed ? Via synaptic you can launch a search for that ..
[13:32] <ircleuser> is this ubuntu channel? Sorry new irc interface
[13:33] <jarco> yes ircleuser
[13:33] <Pxrboy> ok il look now :)
[13:33] <Vedestin> yes
[13:33] <slushpuppy\> Hi, is there to copy permissions from one directory to other, using a command?
[13:33] <mysterycool> Hello.
[13:33] <oldenglish> jarco: you have pm
[13:33] <Rioting_pacifist> how do i find out what program is using a port?
[13:34] <Vedestin> what's ircle?
[13:34] <mysterycool> Is there a program that lets me broadcast an online radio? I mean, like there is Winamp which can be combined with Shoutcast and so you can broadcast online, is there something similar for Linux?
[13:34] <Pxrboy> glitsj16: yeah libgnutls13 is installed
[13:34] <cyclobs> mysterycool: there is a windows app that lets you do it
[13:35] <cyclobs> i dunno about any linux apps tho
[13:35] <joce> Hello
[13:35] <mysterycool> Cyclobs: As I said, there is Winamp which is for Windows. Anything relevant for Linux?
[13:35] <Grim76__> mysterycool: http://www.shoutcast.com/download/files.phtml
[13:35] <cyclobs> didn't read that much >.<
[13:35] <mysterycool> :p
[13:36] <cyclobs> ah yeah, shoutcast
[13:36] <mib_aanhvl> any idea why "parted" reports /dev/sda6 (linux-swap) as 2007 MB, yet "df" as 503M?
[13:36] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: well, i'm afraid i can't find anything else for now, but i have one more idea .. plan B
[13:36] <cyclobs> i used what ever else chronicX uses
[13:36] <m-c> jrib: I see - there were so many security fixes, along with the enhancements, that the package was distributed.
[13:36] <m-c> Thanks!

[13:37] <mysterycool> Grim76_ + cyclobs: You do not get it - that is the server actual broadcasting program - I need the media player which can be combined with Shoutcast.
[13:37] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: there's mention of libxfce in there .. are you running Xubuntu by any chance, or installed Xfce4 packages ?
[13:38] <cyclobs> ah yeah

[13:38] <cyclobs> yeah icecast2
[13:39] <Pxrboy> glitsj16: no im not on Xubuntu, how do i tell if ive installed Xfce4 packages?
[13:39] <mysterycool> Neo_: I believe Flash is needed. Is Flash Player installed?
[13:39] <oldenglish> neo_: chuckle
[13:39] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: same routine, try Synaptic and launch a (name)search for xfce
[13:39] <cyclobs> mysterycool: http://www.icecast.org/
[13:40] <joce> when i check the disk occupation with xdiskusage, on my / partition there is a 2 gigs area labelled as "permission denied"
[13:40] <joce> it used to be labelled "free space"
[13:40] <cyclobs> joce: you should consult who ever does the hosting
[13:40] <neo_> mysterycool,: yes I think flash is installed
[13:40] <neo_> How do i make sure its the latest version
[13:41] <hisingh1> !hello
[13:41] <mysterycool> lol
[13:41] <mysterycool> :p

[13:42] <sedra> neo_: you need java
[13:42] <neo_> but firefox says java is enabled
[13:43] <Pxrboy> glitsj16: theres a few things come up, somethings seem trivial to me though (although that doesnt mean much) screenlets is one, xfce4-icon-theme, gtk2-engines-xfce
[13:43] <DIFH-iceroot> i have a FAKE RAID 1 System, ubuntu-installation is showing me sda and sdb, how can i install ubuntu on my FAKE RAID1? now i can only select sda or sdb
[13:43] <neo_> how can i geet java?
[13:43] <neo_> sudo apt-get install java?
[13:43] <Pxrboy> glitsj16 the last two seem important actually :S
[13:43] <franklinR> stupigirl: Any idea of model?
[13:43] <stupigirl> uhm 1 sec, franklinR
[13:43] <wildthing4ever> Hi all

[13:44] <cyclobs> wildthing4ever: need help with?
[13:44] <neo_> sedra,: my java is not working how do i fix this?
[13:45] <wildthing4ever> I upgraded to 8.4 today, and now Vista won't boot
[13:45] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: can't judge whether the icon theme and theme engine would cause this i'm afraid, but it's worth a shot temporarily uninstalling those and trying again
[13:45] <stupidgirl> :)
[13:45] <cyclobs> wildthing4ever: you didn't delete the vista partition did you?
[13:45] <sedra> neo_: download it from java.com
[13:45] <wildthing4ever> nope
[13:45] <wildthing4ever> Grub shows me Vista, but loading that option takes me to system recovery
[13:45] <sedra> official package
[13:45] <franklinR> stupigirl: I'll just have a quick look around ;)
[13:45] <stupidgirl> z0mg who reg my nick :(
[13:45] <cyclobs> well the boot loader is probably not pointing the right locatiopn
[13:45] <jarco> hello. i have slow speeds transfering data to my xp. Disabled ipv but didnt help. Any other ideas?
[13:45] <Pxrboy> glitsj16: ok i dont use the theme anymore, so it makes sense to get rid of it, il give it a go :)
[13:46] <stupidgirl> oh o franklinR , thnx
[13:46] <wildthing4ever> hmm..ok, can you help me figure out what the correct boot loader entry might be?
[13:46] <stupidgirl> ok*
[13:46] <glitsj16> Pxrboy; okay, goodluck
[13:46] <cyclobs> umm, it's a little hard if i don't know your partitions
[13:46] <cyclobs> do you know how to get into the grub config?
[13:46] <wildthing4ever> yup, lemme just open it up
[13:46] <wildthing4ever> gimme a sec
[13:47] <_Ben> hi guys can anyone please advise on running remote x sessions on my ubuntu server?
[13:47] <jarco> oldenglish: ?
[13:47] <jarco> it didnt work
[13:47] <franklinR> stupigirl: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=370589 should be of some help
[13:48] <wildthing4ever> err...the quicklauncher seems to have crashed...how do I open gedit in root mode?

[13:48] <cyclobs> sudo gedit >config file>
[13:48] <jakesnake> i'm a bit new to linux, and I'm wondering where to put certain files in the filesystem. right now i'm wondering where to put i.e a folder of source code i'm developing that should be available to multiple users. any suggestions?
[13:49] <DIFH-iceroot> hm, ok if ubuntu ca not handle fake raid1, then i have to use suse again which can be installed on fake raid 1 without doing anything
[13:49] <jarco> hello. i have slow speeds transfering data to my xp. Disabled ipv but didnt help. Any other ideas?
[13:49] <jakesnake> and in the same spirit, if i want to put a large collection of music somewhere, where in the filesystem does it make sense to put it?
[13:49] <wildthing4ever> k, have opened menu.lst
[13:49] <cyclobs> jakesnake: you can put files in your home folder
[13:50] <Rob76> does ";" work the same as "&&"?
[13:50] <jakesnake> cyclobs: i have realized that i can put files in my home folder. i am saying it doesnt make sense to put certain files in my home folder as they are shared between multiple users
[13:50] <cyclobs> wildthing4ever: ok scroll to the bottem
[13:50] <wildthing4ever> the Vista entry is: title		Windows Vista/Longhorn (loader)
[13:50] <wildthing4ever> root		(hd0,2)
[13:50] <wildthing4ever> savedefault
[13:50] <wildthing4ever> makeactive
[13:50] <wildthing4ever> chainloader	+1
[13:50] <_Ben> jakesnake best to keep that sort of stuff in the /home location I would have thought. you could sudo mkdir shared to create a shared folder then sudo chmod shared 777 or however you use chmod...
[13:50] <jakesnake> _Ben: so just basically /home/shared ?
[13:51] <wildthing4ever> k, am at the bottom of the file
[13:51] <_Ben> that would give everyone access
[13:51] <cyclobs> jakesnake: you could make a shared folder? i'm not sure on that topic
[13:51] <_Ben> jakesnake yep thats what i'd do
[13:51] <jarco> hello. I have slow data transfer rate from my ubuntu to my xp but not fron other systems. Tried ftp and samba. Disabled ipv6. Anyone has an idea?
[13:51] <cyclobs> wildthing4ever: what system did you install first?
[13:51] <jakesnake> _Ben: Just wanted to ask someone a bit more familiar with linux before i went ahead. thanks!
[13:51] <wildthing4ever> Vista
[13:51] <jarco> and another problem. Using my number on the keyboard moves my mouse :s
[13:52] <_Ben> jakesnake you're welcome
[13:52] <wildthing4ever> actually, I had Vista and Ubuntu running fine together till this morning
[13:52] <cyclobs> then vista is probably (hd0,0)
[13:52] <wildthing4ever> upgraded to Hardy Heron, and that seems to have broken something
[13:52] <wildthing4ever> aah, ok
[13:52] <wildthing4ever> I'd tried 0,1
[13:52] <wildthing4ever> lemme try 0,0
[13:52] <Pxrboy> glitsj16: nothing happening, still the same :( thanks for the help though :)
[13:52] <_Ben> jarco it may be that your win xp install has its network card set to half duplex or auto duplex
[13:52] <joce> Is it possible to blend two partitions without data loses ? (there is a partition for / and another for /home, which I want to unify for space reasons)
[13:52] <wildthing4ever> thx cyclobs, lemme try this out, and I'll be back if it doesn't. Cheers!
[13:52] <_Ben> jarco make sure xp network card is set to full duplex
[13:53] <cyclobs> okies
[13:53] <cyclobs> no problem
[13:53] <jarco> ok will try _Ben
[13:53] <glitsj16> Pxrboy: well , try #pidgin is the best advise probably, sure is the only one i have left :p
[13:53] <c_lisp> joce yes
[13:54] <Pxrboy> glitsj16: well thanks again :) will do
[13:55] <franklinR> stupidgirl: best of luck with your wireless!

[13:56] <neo_> I dont know how to fix this
[13:56] <_Ben> jarco didnt work as in its already full duplex or it made no difference?
[13:56] <derspankster> Has anyone had any experience with a stardot wincam live? I had it working in Feisty then it quit and I've never been able to get it to work again. I ran it with Wine. Now, the camera can't communicate with the computer.
[13:56] <jarco> made no difference
[13:56] <_Ben> hmm did you disable and reenable the network card ?
[13:56] <neo_> Help I cant get java working in ubuntu I dont know how to fix this
[13:56] <jarco> yup

[13:57] <jarco> it also worked fine with my old ubuntu
[13:57] <wildthing4ever> hey cyclobs - Vista's back - you rock!
[13:57] <wildthing4ever> :)
[13:57] <BeBoBli> I hate to say this in frustration, but when an install just fails and it's best explanation is that it has a 'broken pipe' I'm not impressed no siree.
[13:57] <_Ben> jarco no idea then im afraid
[13:57] <chq32> hello

[14:03] <Ayabara> what's a good tool to do a batch transcode of a bunch of files from flac to mp3?
[14:03] <peppo> are there 8.10 isos out and about somewhere?
[14:03] <glitsj16> bvm1: you can always find this kind of info through Synaptic, just open that and enter a search for that name .. if it's unmarked, you haven't got it
[14:03] <jarco> its faster then this 4 kbs i am getting now
[14:03] <bvm1> glistsj16: yes, It is installed

[14:06] <c_lisp> synapitcs imperfect
[14:07] <lonetech1920> how can i install ubuntu remotely over lan on a computer with no os...what do i need to put on the hard drive
[14:07] <azcazandco> noone got suggestion on this monitor thing?  Is my one major issue with Ubuntu
[14:07] <Knightarr> i've tried setting my vga mode=791 in menu.1st, but grub tells me it's an unsupported mode when i boot
[14:07] <imperfect-> c_lisp: synaptics?

[14:08] <logixoul_> Can anyone help me with the evtouch driver?
[14:08] <ifireball> Ayabara: the shell... :P
[14:08] <bvm1> glitsj16: when I try to modprobe b43-fwcutter, it comes up with FATAL module not found.......checking uname -are tells me I am running <IP_ADDRESS>-generic, is that the correct kernel?
[14:09] <ne2k__> lonetech1920: you want PXE boot into a network installer?
[14:09] <Ayabara> ifireball, that's what I really want, but I don't know how to write the curse :-)
[14:09] <RaceKondition> is it safe to upgrade a running gutsy production machine to hardy? do I have to remove (a lot) of packages beforehand and reinstall them afterwards?
[14:09] <glitsj16> bvm1: there are more recent kernels yes, might be worthwhile updating
[14:10] <bvm1> glitsj16: ok, bizarrely, for the first time in 2 months, the wifi just connected
[14:10] <bvm1> I have no idea what I did
[14:10] <mysterycool> Can somebody help me with getting up shoutcast or icecast set up on Ubuntu?
[14:11] <bvm1> but, whatever it is, it's not using b43-fwcutter
[14:11] <J_P> hi all
[14:11] <glitsj16> bvm1: might be just the effect of your modprobe
[14:11] <J_P> people, how I know what init my ssystem are running, for exatple 2, 3 4 or 5 ?
[14:11] <bvm1> glitsj16 how do I find out what wireless driver I am currently running so I know for future
[14:12] <The-Seima1> with 3DMark 2001 ( using wine ), I get around 25 FPS, is that good ?
[14:12] <bvm1> is there a modprobe -l or something?
[14:12] <RaceKondition> is it safe to upgrade a running gutsy production machine to hardy? do I have to remove (a lot) of packages beforehand and reinstall them afterwards?
[14:12] <glitsj16> bvm1: lsmod gives you what's in there presently
[14:12] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: No problem at all.
[14:12] <bvm1> glitsj16 thanks a lot
[14:13] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: When you  upgrade, the old packaged are replaced by the new. Don't think any important packages will be removed from the machine, though it will probably just upgrade them. =]
[14:13] <tasi> Is there a way to allow auto-login without using the "Login Window" administration tool
[14:13] <bvm1> glitsj16 gah, it's running the old bcm43xx module, I have a feeling the update I am doing will stop it working again
[14:13] <oldenglish> Is it possible to set transparency for selected applications in the panel? As it is now, the whole panel is transparent except whichever application has focus, which is solid.
[14:13] <tasi> Nevermind, now it opens
[14:14] <lonetech1920> ne2k__: can i use that even if the computer does not have any software just formatted hard drive
[14:14] <Goldberg>  /msg ubottu etiquette
[14:14] <RaceKondition> mysterycool: I remember once dist-upgrading Debian from stable to unstable and I got problems, so my friend recommended removing most non-essential packages first. but this is untrue for gutsy to hardy upgrade?
[14:14] <glitsj16> bvm1: hope you can get it going, your welcome
[14:14] <abdulla> hi , how do i open wine folders?
[14:15] <RaceKondition> mysterycool: and will be upgrade be atomic/transactional? if something fails, can aptitude/apt-get roll back everything else too so my system will remain as it was before?
[14:15] <The-Seima1> abdulla: go to ~/.wine/drive_c
[14:15] <abdulla> The-Seima1, where is it?
[14:15] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: I have never used Debian, however with Ubuntu it is not going from stable to unstable. At least for hardy, though Hardy does have quite some bugs. I believe that the developers rushed to bring it out and it is not 100% fixed yet.
[14:16] <abdulla> The-Seima1, how can i open it?
[14:16] <The-Seima1> abdulla: the directory .wine is hidden, so you have to check "Show hidden files" in nautilus
[14:16] <RaceKondition> mysterycool: so maybe I shouldn't upgrade at all? I wouldn't but I need some packages gutsy doesn't have
[14:16] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: Yes, apititude (I find synaptic much more fun to use :p), will be able to get everything back. Nothing important will be removed, just upgraded.
[14:16] <abdulla> The-Seima1, nautilus??
[14:17] <The-Seima1> abdulla: nautilus = the file manager you're using right now ^^"
[14:17] <ifireball> Ayabara: do you know how to convert one file?
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> RaceKondition If it is just a couple of packages why not see if you can just get those, or dual boot gusty stable and hardy until it works for you
[14:17] <glitsj16> bvm1: purge that old one perhaps, installing the b43-fwcutter and activating it in 'hardware drivers' ishould do it ... f that doesn't work there's always the brute force option of blacklisting the old one (put it in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist) Goodluck :)
[14:17] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: Oh, well then, I, myself, upgraded just to check Hardy. However, I am not really pleased with this version of Ubuntu. I hope that the next one will be really better. And it is not just me who is not pleased. At the first days of Hardy when many were upgrading, I've seen many around here complaining at bugs or errors at Hardy.
[14:18] <abdulla> The-Seima1,  how do i check hidden files?
[14:18] <RaceKondition> mysterycool: does the bugginess apply for Desktop software mostly? because I'm running a server system with no X
[14:18] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: However, if you really need those packages, I'd suggest upgrading, it is not THAT bad after all. At least not as bad as Windows :p it is ok, just some bugs here and there.
[14:18] <RaceKondition> mysterycool: what kind of bugs?
[14:18] <abdulla> The-Seima1,  nvm
[14:18] <The-Seima1> abdulla: press CTRL+H
[14:18] <abdulla> The-Seima1,  ya
[14:18] <Jack_Sparrow> mysterycool there are always issues when a new version is released.  I never used edgy for any length of time
[14:19] <The-Seima1> abdulla: then you'll see the .wine folder
[14:19]  * N3bunel saluta
[14:19] <abdulla> The-Seima1,  ya thnxs
[14:19] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: To be honest, I prefer going the graphical way and not through commands though they come handy here and then. And, indeed, people who were asking help with errors or bugs where involved with Desktop applications, I don't remember seeing anybody having errors with the Terminal.
[14:19] <Ayabara> ifireball, I can dig that up. what I want is to take all flac's below /media/disk/music, and put them in /mnt/storage/music using the same subdir-layout
[14:19] <Ayabara> soundconverter is the easy way :-)
[14:19] <Jack_Sparrow> mysterycool What packages in particular did you really need or want.. and bugs are the usual video and wifi drivers
[14:20] <mysterycool> Jack_Sparrow: Indeed, they do, however Hardy is quite of a disappointment.
[14:20] <stabbyjoe12> hi when i run the vmwar insalion terminal says i must be a super user to contiue
[14:20] <RaceKondition> mysterycool: hmm, I need someone who's running a server system telling me whether it's worth the effort right now
[14:20] <c_lisp> how is it disappointing?
[14:20] <Jack_Sparrow> mysterycool It is for you, but there are tens of thousands that had no issue with it
[14:21] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: Oh, sorry then, I cannot assist you there. Check around though, definitely someone will be on server system.
[14:21] <RaceKondition> mysterycool: thanks anyway for your help :)
[14:21] <mysterycool> Jack_Sparrow: Maybe, though it has not been just once when I had discussions with people saying that Hardy was a disappointment.
[14:21] <RaceKondition> is anyone around here running a live Ubuntu server machine?
[14:21] <Jack_Sparrow> RaceKondition fyi  we do have #ubuntu-server
[14:21] <mysterycool> RaceKondition: No problem, anytime. =]
[14:21] <RaceKondition> oh, Jack_Sparrow, thanks, I didn't know of that

[14:37] <genii> gwp: Is it executable?
[14:37] <jimcooncat> gwp, you'll have to check that the file is executable, then chmod it if not.
[14:37] <ifireball> Ayabara: assuming you have some kind of a conversion command that looks like "convert <input file> <output file>" you can use something like the following: "cd /media/disk/music; find -mindepth 1 -type d -exec mkdir /mnt/storage/music/'{}' ';'" to make the directory structure then "find -type f -name '*.flac' -exec convert '{}' /mnt/storage/music/'{}'" to do he conversion
[14:37] <ifireball> Ayabara: I suggest you read up a little about find and do some small tests before going for the whole thing, its takes some time to get this right (and I'm not sure I did)
[14:37] <wildthing4ever> hi all, I'm having a problem with the sound in Hardy Heron - I can hear sound, but the quality is pretty bad
[14:37] <wildthing4ever> can somebody give me advice on where I can start troubleshooting?
[14:38] <freshy> does anyone play syscrabble, it hangs when i try to register a nic (hardy)
[14:38] <ifireball> Ayabara: you can learn about the "find" command by running "info find" from the shell

[14:39] <AndrewGearhart> Morning. I'm having problems with a new ubuntu installation not booting (isn't directing correctly from grub)... and I don't know how to fix it.
[14:39] <compakv> hallo
[14:39] <jimcooncat> wildthing4ever: was the sound quality good with a different os on the same hardware?
[14:39] <compakv> Do ubuntu have system administration manual (init scripts, etc..) ?
[14:39] <wildthing4ever> I just upgraded from 7.10 this morning, and the sound quality went bad as a result
[14:39] <wildthing4ever> sounds perfect in Vista (dual-boot)
[14:39] <s0u][ight> wildthing4ever, u can edit the settings so it will be good back :D
[14:40] <wildthing4ever> ok, sure, can you direct me regarding what settings to edit?
[14:40] <s0u][ight> alsamixer in cli will give you some options
[14:40] <jimcooncat> wildthing4ever: not that I can really help, but what exactly is different about the sound?
[14:40] <Bodsda> whats the compiz plugin that selects the window that the mouse is over?
[14:40] <s0u][ight> Bodsda, opacity
[14:40] <wildthing4ever> jimconncat: it sounds like I'm playing from a cheap set of speakers

[14:42] <Botuly> hi guys, i'm reading ubuntu wiki and server guide, and i found this in the OpenSSH description "The default /etc/ssh/sshd_config which is used with Ubuntu's OpenSSH implementation is more secure than that found in many other distributions of GNU/Linux", does anyone know why is it more secure?
[14:42] <jimcooncat> wildthing4ever: right-click on the top panel, and choose "Add to Panel"
[14:42] <Bodsda> s0u][ight, opacity just lets you see a window the mouse is over,,.,. i remember there being one that activates/selects whichever window the mouse is over
[14:42] <wildthing4ever> sou][ight, what exactly do I do in alsamixer?
[14:42] <gwp> how do I extract a .sh file ? when i do sh file.sh or bash file.sh it continusouly spams over and over "do i want to install in said diretory [y|N]
[14:43] <KrimZon> what's the difference between /usr/local/lib and /usr/lib on hardy?
[14:43] <GGG|New> !logical
[14:43] <Bodsda> gwp, you dont extract them,.,. a .sh file is a bash script
[14:43] <tech0007> gwp: what is that .sh file for? where did u get it?
[14:43] <mysterycool> !xmms2
[14:43] <mysterycool> !xmms
[14:43] <GGG|New> err.. can i install Ubuntu onto logical partitions?
[14:43] <s0u][ight> wildthing4ever, well moving left and right changes the settings that will be changed and up and down makes the changes esc exits
[14:43] <wildthing4ever> @jimcooncat: great, what's the application called?
[14:43] <radoe> GGG|New: sure.
[14:43] <gwp> its Vendetta's installer, its an MMORPG for linux
[14:43] <Jack_Sparrow> gwp Type ./script'sname or use sudo b4 that if its out of ur user directory... sh scriptname.sh   ...or...  ./scriptname.sh  ...or for php scripts... php scriptname.php ... Sometimes shell scripts don't have the sh extension but that won't matter ...Note... Scripts need to have executable permissions. Use the command chmod +x /home/$USER/Desktop/filename.bin to make the file executable.
[14:43] <gwp> I downloaded it form their site
[14:43] <GGG|New> radoe: thanks :)

[14:45] <wildthing4ever> my problem's that the sound from the system seems to be buggered after the upgrade to Hardy Heron
[14:45] <pub> does ubuntu automount harddrives ?
[14:45] <jimcooncat> wildthing4ever: I'm not sure what you might have had for a quick launch applet. Maybe it was a drawer.
[14:45] <wildthing4ever> jimcooncat: that's fine, that's not a major issue
[14:46] <s0u][ight> wildthing4ever, so u do have sound but it is bad quality?

[14:51] <GGG|New> bbl.. installing Ubuntu now
[14:51] <KrimZon> tech0007: the main problem is i configured and compiled an app and it put its libraries in /usr/local/lib and then can't find them when it runs
[14:52] <tech0007> KrimZon: did u do configure, make and sudo make install
[14:52] <KrimZon> tech0007: yep
[14:53] <tech0007> KrimZon: compiled apps normally put libraries in /usr/local/lib after u run configure, what program is it?
[14:53] <Daenyth> How can I create a new ~/.fluxbox/menu file? fluxbox-generate_menu is missing
[14:54] <KrimZon> tech0007: BuGLe - http://www.opengl.org/sdk/tools/BuGLe/
[14:55] <tech0007> KrimZon: check if  /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf contains /usr/local/lib
[14:55] <KrimZon> tech0007: yes, it contains that
[14:57] <tech0007> KrimZon: 'sudo ldconfig -v'........see if it lists /usr/local/lib
[14:57] <glitsj16> Daenyth: have you tried "sudo update-menus" and logout/login again to re-generate it ?
[14:57] <m1r> hello
[14:57] <Daenyth> no, let me try that
[14:58] <KrimZon> tech0007: yep, it mentions it
[14:58] <tech0007> KrimZon: what's the path to the libraries?
[14:58] <glitsj16> Daenyth: ok, that should take care of it if my fluxbox memory is any good :)
[14:59] <Daenyth> It didn't seem to do anything. Do I have to log out or can I just restart the WM
[14:59] <KrimZon> tech0007: how do you mean?
[14:59] <Daenyth> hrm
[14:59] <Daenyth> eh, I can just scp the binary from elsewhere
[14:59] <glitsj16> Daenyth: i think fluxbox regenerates only at new login
[15:00] <tech0007> KrimZon: do u see /usr/local/lib/bugle and /usr/local/lib/libbugle*
[15:01] <KrimZon> hmm...
[15:01] <Daenyth> it's ok, the other worked
[15:01] <ZehRique> Hi, there! I make part of the Brazilian Portuguese Translation Team but I don't know how to download the Intrepid Ibex Alpha 1. Can anyone give me the URL where it is?
[15:01] <Daenyth> thanks though
[15:01] <tech0007> KrimZon: did u follow the instructions http://www.opengl.org/sdk/tools/BuGLe/documentation/install.php#install-configure
[15:02] <Pici> ZehRique: Its not available yet, but you can join in on the wait in #ubuntu+1  See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/intrepid-changes/ for more info
[15:03] <raozuz1> hi guys :)
[15:03] <KrimZon> tech0007: yep, i think so
[15:03] <ZehRique> Pici, hmm... OK, Thanks.
[15:03] <DanielHolth> Why wouldn't sudo work if gethostbyname(my hostname) fails?
[15:03] <tech0007> KrimZon: try running it...paste the error if you see any
[15:04] <Chousuke> DanielHolth: Security measure. sudo can be configured to allow stuff on a per-host basis
[15:04] <KrimZon> ldconfig does say that some libbugle stuff was linked to other libbugle stuff
[15:04] <DanielHolth> whoops, I guess I shouldn't have changed my IP address on my hosted server.
[15:05] <tech0007> KrimZon: you cant get it to run?
[15:05] <DIFH-iceroot> for my question some minutes ago, if you want to use ubuntu with existing FAKE-RAID1 Array, just run dmraind -ay with a live system, then you will see the RAID-Array and not sda and sdb
[15:05] <DIFH-iceroot> dmraid -ay
[15:05] <KrimZon> tech0007: get what to run?
[15:06] <tech0007> KrimZon: bugle
[15:07] <[CG]> digg
[15:08] <[CG]> wrong keyboard :(
[15:08] <KrimZon> tech0007: it runs now, i manually made a link to the library it complained about, but then later complained about some other libraries missing
[15:08] <Jack_Sparrow> DIFH-iceroot Is that live cd then F6 then dmraid?
[15:08] <tech0007> KrimZon: so its ok now?
[15:08] <KrimZon> now it doesnt complain about those either... but nothing seems to be happening
[15:08] <tech0007> KrimZon: waht are u trying to accomplish exactly w/ bugle?
[15:09] <DIFH-iceroot> Jack_Sparrow: ??? live cd ubuntu 8.04
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> DIFH-iceroot Where do you type or add  dmraid?
[15:09] <KrimZon> just get it to output stuff about another program, to see how it uploads textures and stuff
[15:09] <KrimZon> basically run something via gdbg-gui
[15:10] <AndrewGearhart> I previously installed windows XP on my system.... the installation subsequently went bad. The NTFS partition still works and is readable/writable by ubuntu 8.04 livecd. When I install ubuntu on a new partition on the same drive, the system still tries to boot windows. Help?
[15:10] <DIFH-iceroot> Jack_Sparrow: first you have to add the universy repo, then you cann get dmraid with apt-get install
[15:10] <tech0007> KrimZon: ok, thought your benchmarking,
