[04:05] <EagleScreen> tech0007 brasero is less good than imgburn
[04:05] <tech0007> EagleScreen: does all what i want, you can take ur pick
[04:06] <mneptok> EagleScreen: Brasero is included in the base distribution, imgburn is not.
[04:06] <bogeyman> how do i find the right letter etc?
[04:06] <accid> ehy
[04:06] <acp_> Hi Jack_Sparrow I just made lshw seem that its not detected can you verify it? I also do a lsusb. output can be seen here http://paste.ubuntu.com/24890/
[04:06] <accid> hey
[04:07] <EagleScreen> ok tech0007 then use it, imgburn gives me features that brasero not, because it i recomend brasero as a burning program ans i recommend imgburn as a GOOD burning program

[04:08] <Jab> What bitorrent client is recommended ?
[04:08] <o0onullzo0o> i use deluge
[04:08] <tech0007> bogeyman: u can check using nautilus or 'mount' on terminal
[04:08] <willy> suspect it has something to do with ndiswrapper.
[04:08] <bogeyman> umm under Computer
[04:08] <BRIGHTshadow525> o0onullzo0o: I went to a video and it had a link to install flash player. I went there before already.
[04:09] <bazhang> jab transmission comes by default with hardy
[04:09] <eyyYo> Is there a way to limit upload/download speed for an application? Lets say I want to restrict Firefox download to only 20 kb/s.
[04:09] <Leefmc> Jack_Sparrow: You do need their username and password i assume? (for remote desktop)
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Leefmc they set it up on their end.. not their user name and pass
[04:10] <EagleScreen> !info wine | EagleScreen
[04:10] <willy> I installed ndiswrapper from source so as to have wireless access
[04:10] <accid> hmm forget the link to the ubuntu installer
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Leefmc system admin rdesktop.. that link I gave is pretty good
[04:10] <Blaqlight> gotta love wireless.
[04:10] <Leefmc> Jack_Sparrow: K, it explains the ubuntu server side of the rdesktop?
[04:10] <o0onullzo0o> opps  sry, have you enabled extra repositories
[04:11] <willy> when I am in live cd mode, the mouse works perfectly
[04:11] <Leefmc> Jack_Sparrow: Seems so, thanks
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Leefmc I can give you the walkthrough I used for my 74 year old father in law..
[04:12] <willy> when I boot off the hd, I'm forced to use the touchpad. No good
[04:12] <chong> hi; im having problems with skype on x64
[04:13] <Leefmc> Jack_Sparrow: Copy paste? Or would you be writing it out? If your writing it out dont worry about it :)
[04:13] <chong> i've gotten it to install, but i get "ALSA lib ../../../src/pcm/pcm_dmix.c:874:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave" errors.
[04:13] <Leefmc> Jack_Sparrow: This is actually a coworker of mine who was gettin beaten by windows and i got him to use ubuntu. It works great for him, aside from his IPod problems.
[04:13] <goldsniper> bazhang : will this work for hardy also?
[04:13] <alan_cool> alo
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Leefmc bare facts..   http://paste.ubuntu.com/24891/

[04:14] <chong> im on hardy btw
[04:14] <BRIGHTshadow525> I'm setting up evolution right now... For the receiving mail part..  So for the sending part, do I put the same server?
[04:17] <Leechzilla> How do I start an X server with Xvfb?
[04:18] <willy> it's a bugel
[04:18] <acp_> for sending part you have to ask your provider for there smtp
[04:18] <luchador> anyone know why i get the frequency out of range error when i try to launch a game
[04:18] <LimCore> kde sounds, gnome sounds, for user, for root, for other users, xshell, bash, vim, firefox... there is like 20 settings to simply tell Ubuntu to #$%^&*(! (to be quiet).  Isnt there any simplier way?
[04:18] <Sa[i]nT> Anyway I can do the media extender thing with Ubuntu that vista does with the xbox360?
[04:18] <acp_> unless you know your smtp
[04:18] <ubunubi> luchador:: while i can't tell you how to fix it -- something in your settings is changing your monitor's refresh rate when your (3d??) game is launched
[04:19] <spoon_man> Sa[i]nT, have you tried x360MediaServe?
[04:19] <luchador> yeah its not an error from ubuntu ubunubi its an error from my monitor
[04:19] <q_a_z_steve> Can anyone help me make my WUBI install into a full install? I'm running out of room.
[04:20] <ubunubi> luchador:: i'd browse through your games configuration files and see if you can find where it stores it's refresh rate setting. it's trying to tell your monitor to refresh more than it's physically capable of, hence the notice on the screen
[04:20] <LimCore> no such option then?
[04:20] <bazhang> http://wubi-installer.org/support.php q_a_z_steve
[04:21] <willy> No thoughts on my usb mouse-notebook issue?
[04:22] <Sa[i]nT> spoon_man: I'm looking into it.
[04:23] <ubunubi> anyone know if it's possible to run ubuntu with the <IP_ADDRESS> kernel?
[04:26] <q_a_z_steve> thanks bazhang is there also, by chance, a irc chan? to work through it?
[04:26] <bazhang> q_a_z_steve, let me check hang on a sec
[04:27] <q_a_z_steve> thx
[04:27] <Bora> is there a way to join public rooms on skype? on ubuntu, there is no list of public rooms so how can i enter a public room?

[04:33] <arooni-mobile> given directory foo;  how do i get the total size of all files + directories within it?
[04:33] <LimCore> arooni-mobile: du -sh   in console.  or tools in GUI
[04:33] <aurynn> I'm having issues with my Macbook and 8.04, the WiFi is really finicky
[04:33] <LimCore> aurynn: I dunno.. try googling for it perhaps
[04:33] <dfgas> does linux have the memory memory issues on 32bit? the 4gb limit?
[04:33] <aurynn> It's an Atheros chipset, apparently
[04:34] <computer> cool i just found out that its better to do a clean server install then run a virtual system within it :) awesome!
[04:34] <andy_> dfgas, yes
[04:34] <andy_> dfgas, PAE can be enabled on linux better i think, though
[04:34] <andy_> dfgas, linux 32 will still not be able to addres over 3.5gb if you've got 4 gigs, or how much ever your device resources take up
[04:36] <Commie_Cary> are those vase ubuntu speakers good?

[04:42] <bogeyman> anyone know how to get codecs etc to play mp3 and movies?
[04:42] <millertime_018> how can i enter it once and then not have to enter it again?
[04:43] <svenstaro> ubunubi, because im not resizing the system partition or touch it in anyway, i have a backup, but still, i just crashed my data partition and i hope i can recover it
[04:43] <godofwar> I installed wine just a bit ago and did online forum instructions to install world of warcraft...the copying over from windows part at least...but when I try to run the game I get Segmentation fault.
[04:43] <nocive> millertime_018: create a script and add to your startup
[04:43] <millertime_018> ...
[04:43] <bogeyman> !codecs
[04:43] <Commie_Cary> are those vase ubuntu speakers good?!?!?!
[04:44] <millertime_018> nocive: I had to have my computer reset recently and wiped the entire drive. before that i had ubuntu installed and i didn't have to keep entering the code or make a script to add to startup
[04:44] <nocive> millertime_018: are u using compiz-fusion?
[04:44] <millertime_018> nocive: is there any other way?
[04:44] <millertime_018> yea i am using compiz-fusion
[04:44] <nocive> sec
[04:44] <computer> can i download from more than 8 hosts on frostwire?
[04:44] <ber1> i use frostwire to download mp3 files. it downloads them fine, and they work fine in outside players, but i am unable to play the files through frostwires built in player. any ideas?
[04:44] <mneptok> bogeyman: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[04:45] <Dev_N00B> Does anyone know if the netcell based Raid 0/1/3 card is supported on ubuntu installs where ubuntu is installed on the array as a loop mounted partition?
[04:45] <godofwar> I installed wine just a bit ago and did online forum instructions to install world of warcraft...the copying over from windows part at least...but when I try to run the game I get Segmentation fault.   Anyone know what to do?
[04:45] <bogeyman> is that all ill need?

[04:45] <mneptok> bogeyman: yes
[04:45] <bogeyman> ty
[04:45] <millertime_018> whats fusion-icon?
[04:45] <nocive> compiz fusion tray icon
[04:45] <millertime_018> nocive: is it in the menu? i think it is
[04:45] <nocive> it also remembers your previous used confs
[04:45] <nocive> thus, selecting emerald as window decorator

[04:47] <s_> how does registering a nick work?
[04:47] <mneptok> s_: /join #freenode
[04:47] <komputes> godofwar: theres always virtualisation
[04:47] <aurynn> I can't say I'm impressed with ubuntu. *shrug*
[04:47] <s3a> uif2iso i meant*
[04:47] <mneptok> s3a: why not just use the native tools?
[04:47] <computer> ber1, go to tools>options>helper apps then change to vlc $URL$ for viodeo player or music player
[04:47] <aaron_> hello
[04:47] <Dev_N00B> I have a PNYS-CURE raid card.  Can I use WUBI to install Ubuntu 8.04 on the RAID 0 array and still  off it?
[04:47] <heart_> whats up room
[04:47] <s3a> mneptok: wat r native tools?
[04:47] <Dev_N00B> PNY S-CURE
[04:47] <mneptok> s3a: what are you trying to do?
[04:48] <bogeyman> damn the restricted is alot of stuff to install lol
[04:48] <heart_> hello
[04:48] <s3a> mneptok: i have .uif cd images and want to make all of them .isos
[04:48] <s_> is there a way to check if a nick is registered? or is it trial and error to see if i find one?
[04:49] <Dev_N00B> *boot off it
[04:49] <mneptok> s_: /join #freenode
[04:49] <ubunubi> s_: you could check bytrying to change to it. if it's registered you won't be able to
[04:49] <mneptok> s3a: proprietary file formats suck. good luck.
[04:49] <aaron_> do you speak spanish?
[04:49] <mneptok> !es > aaron_
[04:49] <titanix88> where does nautilus mount remote samba shares? ( herdy)
[04:49] <s3a> mneptok: all2iso and uif2iso can do it but i cant get either installed
[04:50] <s3a> mneptok: or simply lack the knowledge
[04:50] <svenstaro> ubunubi, do you reckon gentoo would be easier for performing operations like these? ubuntu is all about automation and user friendlyness, but where it fails, so will you. gentoo is about control all the way.
[04:50] <mneptok> s3a: never used either
[04:50] <ftehw> I have a 2ndary internal drive that I was messing with.  I changed the "mount location" and "mount options" (via right-click -> properties) then remounted.  I must have gotten something wrong because now it says it can't mount the drive "mount_point cannot contain the following characters...".  ANy idea how I can go back and fix it?
[04:50] <ubunubi> svenstaro: i dont have experience with gentoo, sorry, i'm the wrong person to ask
[04:50]  * mneptok stares at svenstaro
[04:50] <s3a> mneptok: k, thx, ill try on a 32 bit comp cuz ive been forcing architecture mayube thats y install fails

[04:50] <Dev_N00B> I have a Raid 0 array on a netcell based pci controller card.  can I install Ubuntu 8.04 on it using WUBI in Windows and still boot off it?
[04:50] <oxeimon> Hi, so I've just built a new computer, and it won't turn on. Can someone direct me to the proper channel to get help for this?
[04:50] <mneptok> svenstaro: his nick has "nubi" in it. recommending Gentoo is just plain mean.
[04:50] <nocive> svenstaro: gentoo has lost itself ...
[04:50] <soul_786> if i just change my nick is that the same as being able to register it if the nick change works?
[04:51] <titanix88> where does nautilus mount remote samba shares? ( herdy )
[04:51] <mneptok> nocive: it will re-emerge at some point. *laugh*
[04:51] <nocive> lol
[04:51] <ubunubi> soul_786: if you're able to change to to it, you are eligible to register it (or attempt to)
[04:51] <soul_786> unless i reg it?
[04:51] <s3a> komputes: i had alredy seen that and im not looking to burn it but anyway i think i no wat to do now, thx for trying anyway
[04:51] <svenstaro> mneptok, i was not! im just thinking of using gentoo myself because setting up a fakeraid on ubuntu is like trying to eat your own stomach
[04:51] <nocive> i've recently moved from gentoo actually...
[04:52] <mneptok> titanix88: Samba shares get mounted by gvfs
[04:52] <oxeimon> Hi, so I've just built a new computer, and it won't turn on. Can someone direct me to the proper channel to get help for this?
[04:52] <bogeyman> nice vlc works good
[04:52] <bogeyman> im starting to like linux lol
[04:52] <komputes> mneptok: nobody should be recommended to switch to gentoo...d'saw
[04:52] <heart_> hello all
[04:52] <Allothernickstak> i am a linux n00b
[04:52] <mneptok> svenstaro: if you think it will be easier on Gentoo, you need to put the pipe down. ;)
[04:52] <mneptok> d'sau
[04:52] <heart_> i am heart
[04:52] <Allothernickstak> trust me, being a noob with a life is funner than being a real hacker
[04:52] <Dev_N00B> I'll stick to Ubuntu
[04:52] <Itai-Michaelson> whats the name of the package that enable all the funky features 3d effects
[04:53] <nocive> Itai-Michaelson: compiz-fusion
[04:53] <alphabeta> so I'm trying to get my ubuntu install to dualboot with vista, but whenever I try to boot vista from grub the screen just sticks at "Starting up ..."
[04:53] <svenstaro> mneptok, the more technical stuff is a lot easier on gentoo because ubuntu has all those user-friendly stuff in place, for example, you have to shutdown the network manager before you can fully manually configure your network
[04:53] <nocive> flush vista down the toilet
[04:53] <komputes> Dev_N00B: I have some crazy glue remover for that y'know
[04:53] <ubunubi> svenstaro: you might have better luck using the "alternate" install ISO/CD...you'll get more refined access to a command line during the entire install process..if that's what you're wanting
[04:53] <nocive> xD
[04:53] <heart_> vista makes me money
[04:53] <alphabeta> nocive: I'd love to but there is one little program I need it for. only once too :/
[04:53] <titanix88> mneptok: i wanna know where is it connected in the filesystem... so i can copy files using command line.
[04:53] <Itai-Michaelson> nocive, aptitude install compiz-fusion?
[04:53] <svenstaro> mneptok, have you ever done a ubuntu fakeraid installation for ich9r? you will try to tear out your eyes
[04:54] <alphabeta> svenstaro: Gentoo's user friendliness went all down the drain once they "fixed" portage by preventing circular dependencies
[04:54] <nocive> Itai-Michaelson: apt-get install compiz-fusion fusion-icon
[04:54] <computer> ber1, got it?
[04:54] <Allothernickstak> is there a chat room to learn more about linux in general than just ubuntu noob questions?
[04:54] <Dev_N00B> I just need to know if I can use WUBI to install ubuntu on my raid 0 drive array on my netcell pci controller
[04:54] <svenstaro> ubunubi, sadly thats a no-go i already tried :/
[04:54] <ftehw> any idea how I can edit the variable "mount_point" for a hdd?
[04:54] <Itai-Michaelson> nocive, whats fusion-icon for?
[04:54] <svenstaro> alphabeta, so its now a bit like slackware? :P
[04:54] <unop> Allothernickstak, ##linux
[04:54] <ubunubi> Allothernickstak: you can try #linux
[04:54] <nocive> gentoo user friendliness? was there ever one?
[04:54] <Allothernickstak> ok thanks
[04:54] <RunKidRun> is this correct, it is illegal to downlaod an mp3 codec, but it is legal  to download realplayer w/ those codecs on linux?
[04:54] <mneptok> svenstaro: thinking Gentoo is more configurable than Ubuntu is like thinking a falling out of a plane will teach you about gravity.
[04:54] <alphabeta> does anyone know how I could get vista to boot? vistas bootloader was overwritten by grub (obviously), and I'd like to keep grub as the master
[04:54] <Allothernickstak> ##linux
[04:55] <Allothernickstak> #linux
[04:55] <RunKidRun> is that right?
[04:55] <nocive> Itai-Michaelson: tray icon for managing your window decorators and window managers
[04:55] <Allothernickstak> which one
[04:55] <bogeyman> what is a godo mp3 player like winamp?
[04:55] <svenstaro> Dev_N00B, definately not, that is, if ubuntu live sees it correclty so will wubi
[04:55] <yoyoned> alphabeta: sometimes the ubunutu installer gets confused when there are more than one windows partition like if there is a restore partition.  Look at the partition it's trying to boot.  it may need changed
[04:55] <bogeyman> good*
[04:55] <Itai-Michaelson> nocive, thanks
[04:55] <nocive> Itai-Michaelson: easily switch between xfce/gnome and compiz-fusion
[04:55] <alphabeta> nocive: portage used to be one of the easiest package management systems I've ever used :/
[04:55] <komputes> mneptok: one final lesson, right?
[04:55] <nocive> true
[04:55] <ftehw> bogeyman: mpd + gmpc.
[04:55] <nocive> it still is
[04:55] <ubunubi> alphabeta: there are a ton of guides for dual booting vista with ubuntu. www.google.com
[04:55] <mneptok> bogeyman: WinAmp, or iTunes?
[04:55] <svenstaro> mneptok, doesnt falling out of a plane teach you about gravity? just in a violent way, and you will have to come up with a solution quickly
[04:55] <alphabeta> yoyoned: It's the right one :/ hd(0,3)
[04:55] <mneptok> komputes: i'm always on the job :)
[04:55] <Dev_N00B> svenstaro, the netcell needs no drivers at all under any os, apparently
[04:55] <titanix88> alphabeta: i tried once : vista->xp->ubuntu. It worked.
[04:55] <nocive> portage is the only good thing left about gentoo
[04:56] <XGas> bogeyman: Try Banshee or Foobar
[04:56] <bogeyman> ill try amarok
[04:56] <Lunks> My mouse is kinda ghostly on Firefox; one minute it's there, suddenly it's gone
[04:56] <bogeyman> i heard someone say amarok si good
[04:56] <mneptok> bogeyman: Amarok is not like WinAmp at *all*
[04:56] <bogeyman> i just want a player lol
[04:56] <yoyoned> alphabeta: that's the 4th partition, not a normal place for vista to live
[04:56] <svenstaro> Dev_N00B, thats good, then its a hardware controller.. a real one. go ahead and try it, you cant break anything with wubi
[04:56] <bogeyman> to play mp3's
[04:56] <nocive> amarok is just plain ugly xD
[04:56] <mneptok> bogeyman: Amarok is more like iTunes. for something like WinAmp, you want XMMS.
[04:56] <alphabeta> ubunubi: tried them all.. (not that they don't all say the same thing).  Haven't found anyone with my problem.. seen BSOD's, and grub boot errors, but never just "Starting up ..." forever
[04:56] <XGas> No
[04:56] <nocive> bogeyman: try audacious or exaile
[04:56] <Allothernickstak> Is #Linux located in the Ubuntu server?
[04:56] <alphabeta> yoyoned: XP was installed first, is now gone. that may be the problem, but im not completely clueless :p
[04:56] <Allothernickstak> im an IRC noob as well.
[04:56] <XGas> Amarok is nothing like iTunes
[04:57] <Dev_N00B> svenstaro, it does Raid 0, Raid 1, Raid 10, Raid 0+1, and XOR Raid 3
[04:57] <svenstaro> Allothernickstak, this isnt a ubuntu irc server, this is freenode, theres all kinds of linux channels on here
[04:57] <Dev_N00B> 34.99 on newegg.  just search for "pny s-cure"
[04:57] <mib_btjb1m> anyone know how to switch back to ubuntu from edubuntu
[04:57] <Dev_N00B> Has 64 MB RAM, too :)
[04:57] <svenstaro> Dev_N00B, well then, go ahead, if its a REAL hardware controller it will work nicely
[04:57] <yoyoned> alphabeta: where is linux installed, does it boot.  Also try hiding the partitions in fromt of vista if they are ntfs or fat
[04:57] <Allothernickstak> so how do i join one, btw this is probably the nicest chat admins i have met so respect to you gjuys .
[04:58] <nocive> an irc noob.. that's something we don't see everyday... :)
[04:58] <ber1> computer - i changed it from xine $URL$ to vlc $URL$ but frostwire still won't play files locally in its embedded media player. any other suggestions?
[04:58] <bazhang> Allothernickstak, /j ##linux
[04:58] <ftehw> where is the variable "mount_point" stored for the hdds?
[04:58] <Allothernickstak> thanks!
[04:58] <svenstaro> Allothernickstak, type this first: /list will give oyu the channels list, then find your channel and type /j #channel  remember the #
[04:58] <drewzf> Hello all
[04:58] <Allothernickstak> be back soon.
[04:58] <bazhang> np
[04:58] <alphabeta> yoyoned: it was XP + Vista, I removed the XP partition and now its 1:boot[ext2] 2: swap 3: extended { 567... where linux lives } 4: vista
[04:59] <drewzf> I've recently upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10, and found that I can't get my nvidia driver to function, a friend of mine is having a similar issue with a ATI card
[04:59] <bogeyman> ok one more ? whats a good burning prog to use on ubuntu?
[04:59] <svenstaro> !testing|drewzf
[04:59] <XGas> drewzf: This is expected, its Alpha version which is still in testing.
[04:59] <alphabeta> yoyoned: been booting linux since, always meant to get around to adding vista to grub but never bothered as I never had the need. until now :(
[04:59] <nocive> bogeyman: brasero
[04:59] <bazhang> alphabeta, fix grub /msg ubottu grub for links
[04:59] <komputes> bogeyman: Brasero
[04:59] <svenstaro> !ubuntu+1|drewzf
[04:59] <XGas> drewzf: NVIDIA still hasn't release the kernel module for kernel version 2.6.26
[05:00] <drewzf> svenstaro, I understand that, but I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing similar issues, and if there was a way to fix it.
[05:00] <XGas> nor does ATI
[05:00] <millertime_018> how do i add compiz fusion icon to the startup programs?
[05:00] <mib_btjb1m> help?
[05:00] <komputes> bogeyman: comes by default on Ubuntu 8.04 -> Apps > Sound & Video > Brasero
[05:00] <nocive> millertime_018: create a new startup application, enter fusion-icon for command name
[05:00] <computer> dont know then, some1 will help, just be patient
[05:00] <drewzf> Ahh, okay, thanks XGas, when will they be releasing, is that known?
[05:00] <svenstaro> drewzf, sure, just download the nvidia drivers manually and let the installer compile modules for your kernel, its actually pretty easy and most of it is automated
[05:01] <XGas> drewzf: "Two weeks"
[05:01] <binar> hi
[05:01] <drewzf> svenstaro, Oh, I've done this before, what packages should I make sure to install before beginning this process?
[05:01] <mib_btjb1m> need some helping switching back from edubuntu when someone gets a moment
[05:01] <bogeyman> what about burning dvd video files?
[05:01] <soul_786> does changing the email password associated with your registered nickname affect its standing in any way?
[05:01] <svenstaro> drewzf, build-essential should do the trick, also kernel-source and headers
[05:01] <bogeyman> i dont see that option there
[05:01] <drewzf> svenstaro, Thanks!
[05:02] <alphabeta> bazhang: I've searched pretty intensively for grub menu.lst vista entries, as far as I can tell I've done it correctly http://pastebin.com/m25611fef
[05:02] <svenstaro> drewzf, remember you might need to manually point the installer to the correct path, you'll be fine
[05:02] <smartnet2> fgdf
[05:02] <ftehw> I found my answer:  To recover from a poorly-formed mount_point variable - http://infobits.org/taxonomy/term/20
[05:03] <done2> hi!!! anyone know a good place to ask about the ubuntu usb system ( udev hal etc...  and all the things that get your new usb device working ) ?
[05:03]  * svenstaro is recovering his data partition which Windows just destroyed
[05:03] <svenstaro> done2, that would be here
[05:04] <cewe_iMoet> oh no!
[05:04] <cewe_iMoet> oh yes no
[05:04] <done2> svenstaro:  sweet!  is there any structured documentation on how ubuntu has setup hal/udev/etc.. ?
[05:04] <bogeyman> i need a burning program that allows me to burn dvd video files anyone can help?
[05:05] <svenstaro> done2, from which viewpoint? are you a dev and you want API documentation?
[05:05] <svenstaro> bogeyman, you mean you want to set up a video dvd from individual files?
[05:05] <waheela_glitched> is there any particular end-user software someone needs for Linux or that would constitute a killer app?
[05:05] <bogeyman> im talking when u rip dvds they go into .vob files
[05:05] <ftehw> curious:  why are many apps installable via apt-get but not Add/Remove Apps?
[05:05] <bazhang> alphabeta, and you are still getting errors from that? is the vista located at (0,3)?
[05:06] <svenstaro> bogeyman, in that case its easy, tried k3b?
[05:06] <ftehw> examples - zsh, mpd
[05:06] <bogeyman> noep but will go get it now
[05:06] <waheela_glitched> nobody?
[05:06] <svenstaro> ftehw, because add/remove the meant to be the noob-version of synaptic, if you want a gui for packages use synaptic , system -> admin > synaptic
[05:06] <ber1> i use frostwire to download mp3 files. it downloads them fine, and they work fine in outside players, but i am unable to play the files through frostwires built in player. any ideas?
[05:07] <alphabeta> bazhang: unfortunately that's the original :/ also unfortunate, I'm not getting errors but just the boot hangs at Starting up ... (which afaik is a message from grub, not vista).  Yeah vista is located at (0,3)
[05:07] <XGas> waheela_glitched: Errrr, the kernel?
[05:07] <mib_btjb1m> anyone familiar with switching back to ubuntu from edubuntu?
[05:07] <svenstaro> waheela_glitched, for what purpose?
[05:07] <waheela_glitched> XGas, *raises eyebrow* end-user app?
[05:07] <XGas> :P
[05:07] <done2> svenstaro... executive summary?
[05:07] <svenstaro> waheela_glitched, also theres no real killer app for linux because thats not the linux philosophy
[05:07] <ftehw> svenstaro: aha!  thanks.
[05:08] <bogeyman> ahh nice svenstaro thanks
[05:08] <waheela_glitched> svenstaro, then it'll never leave niche.
[05:08] <waheela_glitched> svenstaro, I need a project. I'm bored. I think a true killer end-user app for Linux would be a fun and educational undertaking if nothing else.
[05:08] <ftehw> ubuntu install was super slick, but these n00b filters can get confusing. o.0
[05:08] <svenstaro> done2 huh? I still dont really know what you want, sorry
[05:08] <bazhang> waheela_glitched, this is better conducted in offtopic
[05:08] <waheela_glitched> bazhang, yeah, hasn't been productive. So I'm here. oh well.
[05:08] <alphabeta> waheela_glitched: help out TASpring. I'm kind of addicted
[05:09] <done2> svenstaro:  I've got an incompatible scanner, but instead of taking it back and getting a new one, I would like to use this opportunity to understand how usb devices are detected, paired with drivers/modules and made to function.
[05:09] <svenstaro> waheela_glitched, well.. actually i like it a lot better because in windows you get all these bloated apps full with stuff theyre not supposed to do, in linux you get many apps that all do their thing well. for example im currently developing a 3d benchmark if you want to join in :P but yah its offtopic, sorry
[05:09] <waheela_glitched> svenstaro, bloatedness is avoided by reusing libraries. killer app has nothing to do with bloatedness.
[05:10] <waheela_glitched> use Mac OS X sometime and begin to know what you're talking about.
[05:10] <knoppix> hello
[05:10] <nocive> waheela_glitched: what is a killer app?
[05:10] <waheela_glitched> the best apps for Mac OS X that really make it shine are all under 50 mb
[05:10] <svenstaro> done2 in that case you might want to start low level, kernel level id say, but sorry, im not a driver dev
[05:10] <nocive> is there a killer app for windows?
[05:10] <waheela_glitched> nocive, quite a few.
[05:10] <nocive> explorer.exe?
[05:10] <waheela_glitched> nocive, something that at least a sizeable minority will want to use the OS just for the sake of using that app which is exclusive to it.
[05:10] <bazhang> is there an offtopic channel hereabouts? oh yeah-->#ubuntu-offtopic
[05:10] <nocive> oh... i know that one. I use windows just to use Adobe CS3
[05:10] <knoppix> i'm looking for some help with uninstalling Fedora 9 and installing linux
[05:10] <waheela_glitched> nocive, Office2k7, Games, AutoCad, amongst other things.
[05:11] <nocive> is Adobe CS3 a killer app?
[05:11] <done2> svenstaro:  cool np thanks!
[05:11] <soul_786> #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:11] <knoppix> sorry, I mean windows
[05:11] <alphabeta> office2k7 is a complete mess. worst UI ever
[05:11] <svenstaro> waheela_glitched,  i meant functionality bloating, for example a fridge that also makes coffee, but sucky coffee, and also it doesnt get very cool
[05:11] <bazhang> last call for #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[05:11] <svenstaro> sorry :<
[05:11] <nocive> lol
[05:12] <knoppix> hello guys, can you please advise?
[05:12] <wweasel> Question guys: How can I get a list of all of the users who can login to a system, using the console (not the GUI User Manager).
[05:12] <Lunks> My mouse is kinda ghostly on Firefox; one minute it's there, suddenly it's gone
[05:12] <chalcedony> :)
[05:13] <bogeyman> anyone tried utorrent threw wine does it work well?
[05:13] <soul_786> if you're installing windows on top and want to get rid of fedora...why not clean install?
[05:13] <chalcedony> knoppix: fedora9 IS linux..
[05:13] <hyperair> does the ati catalyst driver support all ati cards or just some?
[05:13] <svenstaro> Lunks, which graphics card? is compiz on?
[05:13] <knoppix> sorry, I mean Windows
[05:13] <svenstaro> bogeyman, yes works just fine
[05:13] <soul_786> yeah knoppix: why not clean instlal windows?
[05:13] <soul_786> install*
[05:13] <chalcedony> SoUkSoU: windows MUST be installed FIRST.. it hates to be anywhere else
[05:13] <knoppix> when I instert the windows CD, it doesn't boot
[05:13] <Lunks> svenstaro: nvidia, yep it's on
[05:13] <bogeyman> good bc i love utorrent lol
[05:13] <nocive> wweasel: cat /etc/passwd | awk -F: '{ print $1 }' -> that will give u all users on your system
[05:13] <knoppix> something about GRUB
[05:13] <soul_786> go to the boot menu or identify the boot sequencein bios
[05:13] <svenstaro> hyperair, just some, not the very old ones, you have to use the open driver for those
[05:14] <soul_786> go into the bios, set your boot sequence to read cd first possibly?
[05:14] <svenstaro> bogeyman, there are very nice torrent apps for linux
[05:14] <svenstaro> Lunks, try to deactivate it then, compiz i mean
[05:14] <bogeyman> ye but y learn a new one plus i need to load all my torrents back up and they are in utorrent :(
[05:14] <nocive> bogeyman: there are tutorials available on how to get utorrent running with wine
[05:14] <bogeyman> im sure just install and run right?
[05:14] <Lunks> svenstaro: still not working
[05:15] <svenstaro> Lunks, is it for all sites?
[05:15] <Utalcn2me> knoppix, at bootup, it aught to ask you to 'hit key to boot from cd rom' for just a quick moment
[05:15] <Lunks> svenstaro: yep
[05:15] <knoppix> what happens is that when I try to boot from the windows CD, it tells me to "press any key to boot from CD" and I do. but then once it starts checking for hardware I can't seem to get to the pont where I can format the harddrives
[05:15] <svenstaro> bogeyman, in that case have fun using utorrent :) just saying there are native alternatives
[05:15] <wweasel> nocive: Thanks!
[05:15] <soul_786> yes, changing the boot sequence just tells the system look to boot FIRST from the cd drives rather than HD thus coming before the GRUB; you wont have to deal with it then
[05:15] <nocive> bogeyman: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=191161 haven't tried it myself, but give it a shot
[05:15] <svenstaro> Lunks, how clean is your ubuntu install? do you get the same problem on live?
[05:15] <itai-michaelson> i have network windows shares automounted on loggon in hardy. it all works well except itasks me for the keyring passwort at boot-up , this will not go well with my client-is there a way to automate the keyring?
[05:16] <soul_786> have you deleted partitions you with to destroy first?
[05:16] <soul_786> wish*
[05:16] <nocive> wweasel: np :)
[05:16] <Lunks> svenstaro: probably I won't as it just started like this today, and I've been using Hardy for a long time now
[05:16] <knoppix> no i haven't deleted partitions
[05:16] <soul_786> if you delete the partitions first
[05:16] <soul_786> you'll be left with an empty space which can then be formatted
[05:17] <knoppix> from what i haave been reading on forums...it have to format the harddrive
[05:17] <svenstaro> Lunks, i wasnt suggesting to clean your system, just curious how old it was, anyway, i reckon you dont get the issue on live then. Tried a new firefox profile?
[05:17] <knoppix> but how do i format the harddrive fom the Fedora console..I'm a noob in linux?
[05:17] <nocive> wweasel: not all users on that list can login
[05:17] <Lunks> svenstaro: Nop
[05:17] <svenstaro> Lunks,  you might wanna try that to sort out if its a plugin / profile issue
[05:17] <wweasel> nocive: Yeah, that's ok. I figured it out :)
[05:18] <bazhang> knoppix, why not get the gparted livecd for that
[05:18] <wweasel> nocive: Thanks for your help!
[05:18] <nocive> ok :)
[05:18] <soul_786> im just as noob to be completely honest... i jsut made the linux switch few days ago but have been using windows for years now
[05:18] <svenstaro> knoppix, you can use parted, its quite cool from the command line
[05:18] <knoppix> baxhang I have the CD, but dont know how to use it
[05:18] <itai-michaelson> knoppix, can you install gparted in fedora? should be "yum install gparted"
[05:18] <Lunks> svenstaro: I will, but it seems like it shouldn't be as I haven't added any plugins today, so I thought it could be something more specific
[05:18] <bazhang> knoppix, boot from it (set in bios to look for cd first)
[05:18] <Utalcn2me> knoppix, you should be able to go into recovery on the wincd if you just want to format the win partition
[05:19] <knoppix> there is no windows partitions...i set the entire HD for Linux
[05:19] <svenstaro> Lunks, might be that your profile just corrupted somehow, just try to find out if its profile or firefoy related
[05:19] <knoppix> when I boot from Parted a see a long list of things,..what do I select?
[05:19] <Utalcn2me> knoppix, sorry, i dont understand what your doing
[05:20] <knoppix> I am Fedora installed on My comp, and the entire HD is fully for Fedora.. there is not windows partition
[05:20] <bazhang> knoppix, you want to dual boot fedora 9 and ubuntu?
[05:21] <knoppix> no no...i want to install widnows
[05:21] <knoppix> get rid of Fedora and install windows
[05:21] <bazhang> knoppix, then install ubuntu after that?
[05:21] <mkquist> knoppix - easier to install windows first
[05:21] <Guest82762> is it possible to host my own website on hardy? free of charge
[05:21] <nocive> i think he just wants to remove all the linux partitions windows can't recognize..
[05:22] <__yy> Guest82762: it's possible to do that with any os
[05:22] <knoppix> yea..have a dual boot of widnows and ubuntu
[05:22] <bazhang> wonders how this relate to ubuntu if that is so
[05:22] <svenstaro> Guest82762, sure, no problem, see the wiki for LAMP
[05:22] <coulix> hello i m using gnome ppp for a modem , im connected with everything except firefox with does not seem to detect the connection
[05:22] <svenstaro> !lamp|Guest82762
[05:22] <bazhang> knoppix, you can use the gparted livecd for that
[05:22] <Utalcn2me> knoppix, i think it would be the best if you removed all partitions and make separate partitiions, maybe a separate home partition for a home partition you could share between the two
[05:22] <Guest82762> i don't have to have the server edition installed to start running lamp?
[05:22] <keta> how do i see what my hard drives are (sda1, sdb2, etc)
[05:23] <bazhang> Guest82762, no
[05:23] <knoppix> how do I get rid of the partitions?
[05:23] <myr> hey does anyone know if 8.04.1 has been released and where it is available for download?
[05:23] <nocive> *sigh*
[05:23] <tj83> keta sudo fdisk -l
[05:23] <nocive> myr, www.ubuntu.org
[05:23] <svenstaro> myr, 8.04.1 is mainly for wubi
[05:24] <bazhang> knoppix, you need to pay attention :)
[05:24] <knoppix> i'm trying
[05:24] <svenstaro> knoppix, are you using parted, fdisk, or gparted?
[05:24] <myr> svenstaro, i thought 8.04.1 was a cumulative bug fix for 8.04
[05:24] <knoppix> I have gparted Live CD
[05:24] <keta> tj83: thanks
[05:24] <bazhang> knoppix, then boot into it
[05:24] <svenstaro> myr, yeah of course some packages got updated
[05:24] <knoppix> when I boot into it there is a long list of things..what do I select?
[05:25] <svenstaro> knoppix, you mean the language settings?
[05:25] <svenstaro> knoppix, ah wait, you mean grub, just press return
[05:25] <bazhang> knoppix, could you be a bit more precise? ie long list of things
[05:25] <svenstaro> bazhang, he means grub i reckon
[05:25] <bazhang> aha grub
[05:25] <knoppix> yes..it says things like Autoconfiguration
[05:25] <knoppix> in paranthesis
[05:25] <svenstaro> knoppix, alright, return will do the trick
[05:26] <knoppix> ok
[05:26] <knoppix> basically I want to get to command line?
[05:26] <dzhosh> does anyone know of a good guide for setting up rtgui for someone who has no familiarity with apache?
[05:26] <svenstaro> knoppix, nope, you will get GUI for everything
[05:26] <keta> when adding a device to fstab, whats the 'proc' column?
[05:27] <knoppix> ok and how do i Proceede?
[05:27] <svenstaro> dzhosh, you will be doing yourself a huge favor by getting used to apache, the gui tools arent really all that helpful
[05:27] <svenstaro> knoppix, you see the gui in front of you now? or the command line?
[05:27] <svenstaro> keta, dont screw with that, that ones for the proc files system
[05:27] <knoppix> gui
[05:28] <jb0t> hello.  i have an install of edgy, and im getting 404's when i try to perform apt-get update.  ive tried numerous variations of sources with no success.
[05:28] <svenstaro> knoppix, goodie, basically everything should be pretty obvious now, you can just select which partitions you want to delete now and then resize the remaining partitions to fit in
[05:28] <dzhosh> svenstaro: all i would need is for it to work well with rtgui, i wont actually need it for anything else... do you still think that is the case?
[05:28] <jb0t> edgy is still supported afaik.  ideas?
[05:29] <knoppix> i'll try it..i'll be back with the results..i'm using koppix to boot cuz i messed things up
[05:29] <svenstaro> dzhosh, ah now i get what you want, you simply want to run a web application on apache?
[05:29] <dzhosh> svenstaro: i am trying to meet the requirements listed here: http://code.google.com/p/rtgui/
[05:29] <svenstaro> jb0t is it?
[05:29] <jb0t> svenstaro: yes, according to wikipedia
[05:30] <Jester45> jb0t: i think it is 7.10 + 18 months
[05:30] <svenstaro> dzhosh, for a torrent interface i can highly recommend torrentflux-br4t
[05:30] <Jester45> jb0t: please pastebin your sources.list
[05:30] <Jester45> !pastebin > jb0t
[05:30] <soul_786> What good web authoring tools are there for website creation and the such? Ive got eclipse for java which works well for me but in terms of actually making some webpages adn the such?
[05:30] <bogeyman> does ubuntu have something auto that changes back the manual dns servers that i need to set
[05:30] <bazhang> jb0t, edgy is eol
[05:31] <bogeyman> bc like every 10 mins i get them reset

[05:31] <dzhosh> svenstaro: are you sure you spelled that right? there are only three google hits and no such package in the repository
[05:31] <Jester45> dzhosh: i recomment rtorrent if you want want a webui
[05:31] <ubunubi> if i pop out my current video card and install a different one, is ubuntu going to freak out and ruin my delicate crafted compizfusion/wow+wine setup?
[05:31] <welkin> can any one tell me if there is any possibilities for reading a mail or chating in terminal???
[05:31] <dzhosh> Jester45: rtgui, which is what i want to set up, is the main webui for rtorrent, but requires a good amount of configuration
[05:31] <svenstaro> dzhosh, http://tf-b4rt.berlios.de/

[05:32] <bazhang> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases jb0t
[05:32] <bogeyman> anyone know of ubuntu resetting to default dns servers like every 10 mins or so bc it keeps doing that and i need it set on a certain dns
[05:32] <jb0t> holy hell
[05:32] <Jester45> jb0t: edgy or feisty?
[05:32] <bazhang> !cn | itai-michaelson
[05:32] <jb0t> edgy.
[05:32] <thunar_> I'm running 8.04. how do I upgrade to the new 8.04.1? I tried dist-upgrade to no avail
[05:33] <itai-michaelson> bazhang, thanks
[05:33] <Jester45> jb0t: yep you need to upgrade
[05:33] <bazhang> np
[05:33] <jb0t> ive tried upgrading before.. it did not go well
[05:33] <soul_786> those are taiwan and hong kong servers what did you expect :P
[05:33] <Jester45> thunar_:  that will work if you have the correct repos
[05:33] <jb0t> by the time i made it to hardy, i had no consoles
[05:33] <svenstaro> thunar_, you dont need to, youre already upgraded
[05:33] <thunar_> ok, thanks
[05:33] <myr> bogeyman, you can edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[05:33] <dzhosh> svenstaro: hmm, this only supports the original bittorrent client, bittornado, transmissoin, and azureus
[05:33] <svenstaro> bogeyman, if you need custom config kill networkmanager
[05:33] <bogeyman> ok what should i edit lol
[05:33] <myr> bogeyman, add a line like prepend domain-name-servers <IP_ADDRESS>,<IP_ADDRESS>;
[05:33] <soul_786> website creation software?
[05:33] <Jester45> jb0t: then dont move up to hardy just go up 1 or 2 releases
[05:33] <jb0t> i ended up doing a fresh install.  that machine was easy.. this one however is full of crap, and will be nightmare
[05:34] <svenstaro> dzhosh, do you really really need rtorrent?
[05:34] <bazhang> soul_786, those are on freenode
[05:34] <nocive> soul_786: don't really know a good one for linux
[05:34] <dzhosh> svenstaro: well, i'll be seeding over 200 torrents, i figured it would be the most stable
[05:34] <bazhang> !html
[05:34] <Jester45> dzhosh: yes that is the downfall of TF its slow because of the clients but this is going into offtopic chatter
[05:35] <nocive> soul_786: haven't seen a real alternative to dreamweaver
[05:35] <nocive> soul_786: u can try bluefish but it sucks in my opinion
[05:35] <Dezine> Is there anyway to get flash to stop crashing Firefox?
[05:35] <storm-zen> I can't get a specific DVD to play in gutsy.  I was thinking about looking for new firmware for the DVD player.  How do I see what DVD hardware I have?
[05:35] <svenstaro> dzhosh, torrentflux is quite good at that, so your call
[05:35] <Jester45> Dezine: use a diffrent flash..
[05:35] <bazhang> Dezine, and still use it? or block it
[05:35] <Jester45> svenstaro: that going into offtopic
[05:35] <bazhang> storm-zen, which dvd
[05:36] <repsol_> Do I need to set up a nfs client in ubuntu?
[05:36] <storm-zen> A touchstone movie, bazhang.
[05:36] <bazhang> storm-zen, nt2?
[05:36] <svenstaro> repsol_, usually you can just mount the nfs shares like you would any other
[05:36] <repsol_> Is there  a seperate package I need?
[05:36] <repsol_> Hmm
[05:36] <storm-zen> bazhang: nt2?  what?
[05:36] <m1r> hello
[05:37] <raziel420> I have a very strange issue, when using any video program, flash applet, java applet, or wine program I loose all sound and get really laggy after exactly 12 minutes, if i qyuit and restart it's fine, for 12 more minutes... any ideas on where to find a fix?
[05:37] <repsol_> I get wrong fs or something like that
[05:37] <bazhang> never mind
[05:37] <soul_786> how do i remove pidgin? i dont think ill ever need it... is it just in add/remove under the applications tab?
[05:37] <myr> soul_786, yep
[05:37] <svenstaro> soul_786, yes it is, but you should think about it, pidgin owns :)
[05:38] <bogeyman> hmm
[05:38] <ubunubi> what's the difference in uninstall/removing from synaptis and add/remove??
[05:38] <soul_786> lol im using xchat for irc...couldnt get it working otherwise for the life of me on pidgin
[05:38] <soul_786> :P
[05:38] <ubunubi> synaptic*
[05:38] <nocive> none :D
[05:38] <Bora> is there any voice chatting for ubuntu? i tried many but none works on yahoo
[05:38] <svenstaro> ubunubi, nothing, just a different interface
[05:38] <svenstaro> Bora, teamspeak, ventrilo work just fine with wine, apart from that skype runs natively
[05:38] <Fa> bora voiceandvideochat.com works
[05:39] <raziel420> add/remove programs has some issues with installing some things because it's not quite as good at dependancy resolving, but otherwise, they are different only in looks
[05:39] <storm-zen> soul_786: Pidgin can be used for IRC, Yahoo, MSN, Jabber, Google... etc... etc...
[05:39] <storm-zen> ( and all at the same time. )
[05:39] <welkin> can any one tell me if there is any possibilities for reading a mail or chating in terminal???
[05:39] <Bora> svenstaro: not much into wine.... skype is good but there is no list of rooms to join
[05:40] <soul_786> yeah I know about all the pidgin features but the laptop this is running on is quite old a t23 and i already have a desktop pc so its not much of a worry to me
[05:40] <storm-zen> Ok.  This is not that hard of a question.  What is the command to list the model of my DVD player?
[05:40] <myr> welkin, chatting on irc?
[05:40] <nocive> welkin: yes, for both
[05:40] <storm-zen> soul_786: try sudo apt-get remove pidgin
[05:40] <soul_786> this laptop is just more experimentation and easing into linux environments
[05:40] <welkin> nocive>>> how to do that???
[05:40] <svenstaro> Bora, actually there is, you got channels, but if youre looking for a server-client solution just use TS2/Ventrilo, its really easy, just install wine and double click the setup :D
[05:41] <nocive> welkin: irc on command line, just install irssi
[05:41] <welkin> myr>> no its like doing everything in terminal
[05:41] <bazhang> lshw storm-zen
[05:41] <m1r> svenstaro: TS2 have its package on ubuntu
[05:41] <nocive> welkin: as for email on the command line, there are numerous command line email clients
[05:41] <storm-zen> thanks, bazhang.  That was too obvious...
[05:41] <svenstaro> mlr, it does? o_O okay
[05:41] <soul_786> Okay well i've got to be off, nice talking and thanks for the help!
[05:41] <tannji> Is there anyone that could walk me though trouble-shooting my sound setup?  (HDA, ALC888)
[05:41] <welkin> nocive>>>so do i need to do apt-get install irssi??
[05:42] <bazhang> tannji, hda intel?
[05:42] <Utalcn2me> welkin, mutt is a fine terminal emailer
[05:42] <nocive> welkin: yes, if you want an irc command line client
[05:42] <Bora> svenstaro: i do have skype installed without the wine... i wish there would be a solution to list skype rooms without the need of wine
[05:42] <tannji> Baz: Realtek ALC888
[05:42] <welkin> nocive>>>k... ill try and tel u...
[05:42] <svenstaro> Bora, aaah wait you got that wrong, you dont need wine to see the skype cahnnels
[05:43] <bazhang> tannji, what have you tried so far?
[05:43] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> can i chat in that??
[05:43] <svenstaro> Bora, next, you need wine for ventrilo but not for teamspeak
[05:43] <esac> am i missing something from nautilus ? I cant browse to fonts:/// and when i try to connect to a bluetooth device it says it cannot open obex://[mac address]
[05:43] <tannji> Baz: I have tried to muddle through installing sound driver and ALSA
[05:43] <Utalcn2me> welkin, chat in your email client??? no
[05:44] <bazhang> tannji, no sound at all?
[05:44] <tannji> None, other than system beep
[05:44] <nocive> welkin: if you also want an email command line client, try pine > apt-get install alpine
[05:44] <bazhang> tannji, pulse not working?
[05:44] <Bora> svenstaro: well the thing is, wine is mostly used to make win progs work on linux and i just wish that there will be all possible progs without the need of windows and wine
[05:44] <raj_> Hi All , I've one ISO file, that i want to convert in hex file using C language , can anyone plz help me
[05:45] <svenstaro> Bora, err.. well there are alternatives which you can use depending on what you need

[05:45] <bazhang> raj_, whatever for?
[05:45] <nocive> Bora.. I wish for world peace
[05:45] <m1r> nocive: only that ?
[05:45] <tannji> Baz, dont know, no idea how to use pulse
[05:45] <bazhang> tannji, let me get you a link
[05:45] <tannji> Baz, thanks
[05:45] <Bora> svenstaro: i wonder why skype for ubuntu don't list rooms is there a cause of that?
[05:45] <bazhang> http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup tannji
[05:45] <raj_> can help me Baz ?
[05:46] <welkin> utalcn2me>>>nocive>>>guys is there any possibilities to do all the works in terminal????
[05:46] <bazhang> raj_, why you want to do that?
[05:46] <svenstaro> Bora, it doesnt? is it an old version?
[05:46] <raj_> i need man
[05:46] <nocive> welkin: yes, u can do pretty much everything in terminal
[05:46] <raziel420> so can anyone help me on my ery odd and very annoying issue?
[05:46] <bazhang> raj_, there may be another way to accomplish whatever it is you are trying-->could you clarify?
[05:47] <Bora> svenstaro: by your knowledge do you thing someone is working on making a new version... if it does i will wait no problem, otherwise i have to search around to find something that list rooms and allow voice chat
[05:47] <bazhang> no 3D games in terminal :)

[05:48] <ng0L> thanks floodBot
[05:48] <dolags32128> how do i configure conky?

[05:48] <ubunubi> welkin: do you prefer walking long distances instead of driving?
[05:48] <ng0L> I was doubt why my browser couldnt load the page
[05:49] <ng0L> it is always connection interrupt while it loading
[05:49] <Bora> svenstaro: i just want to have a button on top of my skype program that i can see list of public rooms and join by clicking on them
[05:49] <nocive> welkin: install links or lynx
[05:49] <Utalcn2me> welkin, install w3m
[05:49] <welkin> ubunbi>>> if it is a pleasent scenery.....
[05:49] <_2> i have heard that on one has ever made a pci modem   only isa modems   is that correct ?
[05:49] <svenstaro> Bora, let me check
[05:49] <Bora> svenstaro: skype for window do include that
[05:49] <nocive> w3m? that 1 i'm not familiar with
[05:49] <nocive> :)
[05:49] <welkin> utalcn2me>>>nocive>> ill try those guys....
[05:50] <ng0L> Bora, are you cambodian?
[05:50] <svenstaro> Bora, you mean skype-live?
[05:51] <_2> ubunbi elinks is nice for console browser too
[05:51] <Bora> svenstaro: skype-live? i don't know what is that? never used it
[05:51] <ng0L> hi
[05:51] <svenstaro> Bora, its the only windows skype function i can see that allows channel-like behaivor
[05:52] <sx66|eee> I need
[05:52] <Jester45> ubunubi: so your saying the gui is driving and cli is walking? well in that case cli is healthier but.. it is often faster to
[05:52] <Sylphid> can someone tell me how i can initiate X11 forwarding in the reverse direction ... ie starting the X client localy and send it to the remote Xserver
[05:52] <ubunubi> Jester45: i said long distances :P in that case walker is never fast..unless you are a world record breaking speed walker
[05:53] <ng0L> svenstaro: Do you know my browser is always interrupted by connection while it loading?
[05:53] <Bora> svenstaro: is't there a site where i can kinda of copy paste public rooms to join by skype
[05:53] <Bora> ng0L: no i'm Iraqi
[05:53] <tannji> Baz:  I do not seem to have an Asound directory to configure....
[05:54] <ng0L> Bora, I think you should check on skype website.
[05:54] <svenstaro> Bora, actually id recommend just using teamspeak and then you'd find a public team speak server
[05:54] <Bora> ng0L: i have but there are none
[05:54] <caluchins> hi there!
[05:54] <myr> fyi: 8.04.1 is what is automatically downloaded now from ubuntu.com
[05:54] <Utalcn2me> Sylphid, i would like to learn howto do that too.  i think you have to open a display value different from your servers,  like display 0:1
[05:55] <Bora> svenstaro: i hope teamspeak does not require wine.. right?
[05:55] <svenstaro> Bora, it doesnt, its in your repo
[05:55] <heart_> hello
[05:55] <Jester45> ubunubi: cli web browsing does suck for the most part but a lot of other things are easier in cli than gui once you learn it. yes new users like the gui and it is good for things but cli also has its place and shouldnt be removed
[05:55] <Jester45> !welcome | heart_
[05:55] <Bora> svenstaro: ok good... thanks for that info...
[05:55] <caluchins> does anybody knows if exist a distro like ubutu but designed for virtualization?
[05:55] <Jester45> welcome back AMLNXUSR
[05:56] <storm-zen> caluchins: In what respect?
[05:56] <svenstaro> Bora, sudo apt-get install teamspeak-client should do the trick
[05:56] <Jester45> caluchins whats wrong with ubuntu and what kind of virtualization
[05:56] <Sylphid> Utalcn2me: I know you can start an Xclient on the remote server via ssh and send it to the local Xserver using the -Y option but i dont know how to initiate it from the remote end
[05:57] <xtknight> caluchins, ubuntu has a xen kernel
[05:57] <WillShears> As in  a server hosting several virtual servers?
[05:57] <bazhang> caluchins, just get an appliance from vmware site
[05:57] <Bora> svenstaro: is teamspeak also available for windows users? or just for ubuntu... and can it be used to login to yahoo or it's stand alone chat
[05:57] <Jester45> caluchins: if your talking about a distro to use inside of the virtual machine than you should have a look at !jeos
[05:57] <xtknight> Bora, teamspeak can be used for windows
[05:57] <Jester45> !jeos
[05:58] <Jester45> Bora: windows can use it but its stand alone chat
[05:58] <Bora> xtknight: with no problem on ubuntu uses voice chat in public rooms right?
[05:58] <svenstaro> Bora, i dont know where the yahoo fits in there but it works well on windows
[05:58] <caluchins> well , the idea is the easy administration using ubuntu as server
[05:58] <xtknight> Bora, i am not sure if ubuntu can work with teamspeak flawlessly.  i would assume so.  skype works wel for me.
[05:58] <orifice> how can I view users in a channel on xchat ?
[05:58] <caluchins> is well tested xen in ubuntu?
[05:58] <orifice> as a sidebar, like IRC ?
[05:58] <Utalcn2me> Sylphid, yea, i would like to be able to use a thin client to log into and run programs on my main server through xorg, that would be cool
[05:58] <ubunubi> xtknight: how do i check what driver(s) my hardware is using?
[05:58] <Jester45> svenstaro: i think its wondering if TS is like pidgin... multiprotcal
[05:59] <xtknight> ubunubi, lshw can tell you under configuration= for a hardware entry
[05:59] <Sylphid> can someone tell me how i can initiate X11 forwarding in the reverse direction ... ie starting the X client locally and send it to the remote Xserver
[05:59] <xtknight> ubunubi, try sudo lshw | less
[05:59] <pan034234> what is mod 4 button on keyboard?
[05:59] <Bora> xtknight: skype works fine for me too, but only problem in listing public rooms...
[05:59] <svenstaro> Jester45, ahh yeah, like a messenger :S
[05:59] <repsol_> /home/repsol 192.168.1/<IP_ADDRESS>(rw)
[05:59] <xtknight> Bora, teamspeak should work on ubuntu, i think, or ventrilo...whichever one support slinux
[05:59] <repsol_> does that look right for /etc/exports
[06:00] <svenstaro> Bora, whats the skype windows feature called that you would like to use? i mean the exact term
[06:00] <Jester45> Sylphid: i dont think you can do that without loging into the remote machine and from there loging back into the local machine
[06:00] <xtknight> Sylphid, is "reverse forwarding" what you want?  i think ssh has that
[06:00] <xtknight> ssh -X somethin somethin
[06:00] <xaelius> hi hi....
[06:00] <Jester45> Sylphid: i stand corrected then
[06:01] <Jester45> hello xaelius
[06:01] <Bora> svenstaro: i have never used it on windows... because yahoo always took over.. but my relatives told me that it actually lists public rooms to join and voice chat
[06:01] <xaelius> how are ya?
[06:01] <svenstaro> Sylphid, well.. in both cases you have two x11 servers so its not reverse actually, its just that youre sending your signals, should work well with x11 forwarding and ssh tunnelling
[06:01] <nocive> that's normal forwarding...
[06:01] <AMLNXUSR> anyone-know-how-i-can-get-my-spacebar-to-work-again-it-stopped-for-no-reason?
[06:01] <nicholashubbard> hey guys, I am trying to remotely install ubuntu on a remote server.  For remotely installing centos I know I can do this: kernel /vmlinuz.cent.pxe vnc vncpassword=AgOodPasswrdHere headless ip=<IP_ADDRESS> netmask=<IP_ADDRESS> gateway=<IP_ADDRESS> \
[06:01] <nicholashubbard> dns=<IP_ADDRESS> hostname=station1.example.com ksdevice=eth0 method=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/ \
[06:01] <nicholashubbard> is there anything equivalent for Ubuntu. I really need to try to get this working without getting my datacenter involved.
[06:02] <xtknight> AMLNXUSR, well it's weird.. someone had that problem yesterday
[06:02] <bogeyman> does anyone here use newsgroups if so what program can i use?
[06:02] <svenstaro> Bora, okay then i get it, but waht exactly is it that you want to accomplish? just talk to random people on the net?
[06:02] <xtknight> bogeyman, thunderbird i believe
[06:02] <svenstaro> bogeyman, i use thunderbird myself for that
[06:02] <bogeyman> can it load nzb files?
[06:02] <xaelius> when someones got a min...i have a hopefully quick question
[06:02] <Jester45> xaelius: good welcome to #ubuntu
[06:02] <AMLNXUSR> u-think-a-restart-might-fix-it?
[06:02] <svenstaro> nicholashubbard, why do you want an alternative to ubuntu?
[06:02] <xtknight> !install | nicholashubbard
[06:02] <Sylphid> svenstaro: problem is that i cant access the remote server via ssh as it is behind NAT
[06:02] <Bora> svenstaro: yes.. like here, but using voice also
[06:02] <xtknight> !netboot | nicholashubbard
[06:02] <Jester45> AMLNXUSR: maybe but that looks weird
[06:03] <svenstaro> !ask|xaelius
[06:03] <AMLNXUSR> ALso-what-app-would-u-recommend-for-burning-isos?
[06:03] <xtknight> AMLNXUSR, brasero
[06:03] <ubunubi> AMLNXUSR: a logout possibly ...earlier my shift/capslock all stopped for no reason, logout fixed it fine
[06:03] <xaelius> arent there some config/control applets for apache?
[06:03] <svenstaro> Sylphid, you mean, NO access at all? not a single port?
[06:03] <nicholashubbard> svenstaro: not trying to move to something else, I want to move to ubuntu
[06:03] <svenstaro> Bora, to friends or just random people?
[06:03] <xtknight> Sylphid, use hamachi VPN
[06:03] <AMLNXUSR> kk-thnx-guys
[06:03] <xtknight> Sylphid, (practically)zero configuration vpn
[06:03] <repsol_> my server is denying my request for nfs any thoughts?
[06:04] <svenstaro> repsol_, did you export the folders in /etc/exports?
[06:04] <repsol_> yes
[06:04] <Bora> svenstaro: random ppl, friends, and individual... now it includes individual
[06:04] <Sylphid> svenstaro: nope .... trying to help a friend out remotely but since hes behind NAT i cant get to him...was hoping he could forward a  terminal to me
[06:04] <xtknight> repsol_, maybe try     sudo /etc/init.d/nfsd reload && sudo /etc/init.d/nfsd restart
[06:04] <Sylphid> svenstaro: but im not sure how to initiate it
[06:04] <nicholashubbard> i have already looked over the netboot stuff that is how I found i could do the initrd and linux kernel from grub likeI can for other OS's. But I'm trying to see what paramaters I can pass to it
[06:04] <repsol_> xtknight, on the server
[06:05] <xtknight> repsol_, yes
[06:05] <pan034234> wat is ctrl+alt+ f8-f12's purpose?
[06:05] <Jester45> xaelius: there are gui configuration tools for apache but they arent that great and you would be better off learning how to manually configure apache. just incase the tools would mess something up you would know how to fix it your self. its not that hard once you know what to do with it. most of the defualts are ok for average servers
[06:05] <svenstaro> Sylphid, vnc is a lot easier to configure for that purpose
[06:05] <afallenhope> what's the command line to view pictures?
[06:05] <Bora> svenstaro: you can also join multiple ppl in a conference.
[06:05] <Jester45> pan034234: nothing unless you have mutlipule X servers for extra terminal there
[06:05] <Sylphid> svenstaro: tried that ... unfortunatly bandwith is an issue
[06:05] <pan034234> oh ok
[06:05] <xaelius> i have configured them manually under windows versions, much different for lin?
[06:06] <Bora> svenstaro: but you must know thier name, to have them voice chat
[06:06] <svenstaro> Bora, in that case i think teamspeak is the best choice, there are many teamspeak servers where many people talk about different things, skype only has live casts which is basically like a radio
[06:06] <Jester45> x servers or*
[06:06] <svenstaro> Sylphid, tightvnc should work very well
[06:06] <repsol_> xtknight, it is a permission issue
[06:06] <svenstaro> afallenhope, "eog picture.png"
[06:06] <xtknight> Sylphid, did you see my message about hamachi
[06:06] <repsol_>  mount request from unknown host <IP_ADDRESS> for /home/repsol (/home/repsol)
[06:06] <Bora> svenstaro: i will for sure give a try on teamspeak...
[06:07] <Sylphid> xtknight: oop... sry missed that
[06:07] <svenstaro> repsol_, id suggest googling on how to use nfs in that case, you didnt correclty set the allowed clients to mount it in the exports file
[06:07] <svenstaro> repsol_, remember you need to re-export after youre done
[06:07] <repsol_> I have that is how I ended up here
[06:07] <xtknight> Sylphid, well with hamachi VPN cross platform, free, you can create a tunnel between you and someone else.  basically you guys just join the same group and then you each have your own ips, 5.x.x.x that you connect with.  bypasses NAT
[06:08] <Jester45> bora there are many free public servers but you can run your own if you have a good connection. each client uses something like 8kb/s maybe less if you want total control
[06:08] <svenstaro> ill be off, farewell lads
[06:08] <xtknight> Sylphid, and there's no lag, that i know of
[06:08] <ng0L> how can i uninstall firefox?
[06:08] <afallenhope> svenstaro thanks
[06:09] <xtknight> ng0L, sudo apt-get remove firefox
[06:09] <Bora> svensJester45: iraq and good connection? no way its a dream.... in iraq we use satellite internet... and it's not fast at all
[06:09] <repsol_> can someone give me their working line that shares their home directory in /etc/exports?
[06:09] <ng0L> xtknight: i did but firefox still can use
[06:09] <repsol_> /etc/export
[06:09] <caluchins> thanks a lot guys
[06:10] <myr> yay opera 9.5 final is released!
[06:10] <xtknight> ng0L, try removing firefox-3.0
[06:10] <Jester45> i know this is offtopic but i just want to share with the world that tomarro i get my quad xeon server :) im so happy i dont think i will sleep for a week
[06:11] <ng0L> Cheer it gone
[06:11] <Jester45> ng0L: you can run dpkg -l
[06:11] <Jester45> ng0L: dpkg -l |grep firefox
[06:11] <ng0L> Jester45: what is it for?
[06:11] <Jester45> to get all installed firefox packages listed
[06:12] <shoeunited> Hi there.  Which way to the 64bit version of Hardy for help?
[06:12] <tannji> Baz: you still available?
[06:12] <ng0L> how can install the older version of firefox instead of 3.0
[06:12] <xtknight> ng0L, install firefox-2
[06:13] <Jester45> shoeunited: 64bit help is here
[06:13] <ng0L> xtknight thanks :D
[06:13] <shoeunited> Oh, great.
[06:13] <xtknight> shoeunited, what's up?
[06:14] <shoeunited> Simply stated:  I'm having trouble turning on my bluetooth.  How do I see if it's being detected?
[06:14] <Sylphid> dan, test
[06:14] <openros> Consider in windows if i copy a video file from dvd to sys, if the file is corrupted inbetween the total files gets deleted. But in ubuntu the percentage of the file that was copied plays...
[06:14] <xtknight> shoeunited, what bluetooth device are you using?
[06:15] <openros> how is it... what tech is used in file copy in ubuntu
[06:15] <AMLNXUSR_> anyone-know-why-ubuntu8.04-is-half-the-size-of-7.10..?---does-it-come-with-less-or-something?
[06:15] <shoeunited> My laptop to my phone (data transfer)
[06:15] <Utalcn2me> shoeunited, try dmesg | grep bluetooth
[06:15] <shoeunited> Ok Utalcn2me
[06:15] <xtknight> AMLNXUSR, well it shouldn't be
[06:15] <AMLNXUSR_> its-only-like-600mg
[06:15] <xtknight> openros, well ubuntu's media player , mplayer or vlc, has better support for partial files than windows media player
[06:15] <shoeunited> Nada :/
[06:16] <AMLNXUSR_> scratch-that-600
[06:16] <xtknight> maybe your 7.10 is a dvd
[06:16] <AMLNXUSR_> 400*(
[06:16] <xtknight> oh sounds incomplete to me
[06:16] <shoeunited> dmesg isn't spitting back any bluetooth IDs to me.
[06:16] <AMLNXUSR_> ill-redownload-it
[06:16] <shoeunited> Is it a driver issue between 32bit and 64 bit?
[06:17] <xtknight> shoeunited, is the bluetooth service enabled?
[06:17] <xtknight> shoeunited, probably not.  the linux kernel is very unified, much more so than windows
[06:17] <xtknight> 32/64bit suport is almost guaranteed to be equal
[06:17] <myr> AMLNXUSR, 8.04.1 desktop i386 cd is 694.5mb
[06:17] <openros> but xtknight,  can you tell me some link to learn the implementation details of the file copy methodology in ubuntu
[06:17] <xtknight> openros, ubuntu copies a file by replicating the byte, just like windows
[06:17] <Jester45> openros: you can get the same playback by using mplayer or vlc on windows... but linux filesystems are much better
[06:17] <shoeunited> Alright.  I was seeing some flashplayer issues, so I didn't know if it was affecting hardware as well.
[06:17] <hack> someone know webintelli??
[06:17] <hack> someone know webintelli??
[06:17] <hack> someone know webintelli??
[06:17] <FloodBot1> hack: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:17] <aeonbit> I have a suggestion for the future of Banshee, which I consider to be an outstanding product.
[06:17] <AMLNXUSR> oh-ok
[06:18] <openros> but in window, no files will be copied partially na
[06:18] <AMLNXUSR> still-smaller-than-7.10
[06:18] <xtknight> shoeunited, check system->administration->services for bluetooth
[06:18] <openros> only two options in windows 100% or 0%
[06:18] <AMLNXUSR> lol
[06:18] <shoeunited> K
[06:18] <xtknight> openros, hmm i didn't tihnk that was the case
[06:19] <xtknight> openros, well it is still the same.  i guess windows just decides to delete the partial part it has copied.  in that way, it's atomic
[06:19] <shoeunited> Bluetooth management is enabled.
[06:19] <xtknight> shoeunited, can you give us some details on your bluetooth device
[06:19] <openros> I tried with a same video dvd, 1gb
[06:19] <shoeunited> It's built in.  I can grab the specs and put them on pastebin.  It's an acer aspire 4520 notebook though.
[06:20] <xtknight> shoeunited, can you pastebin the output of sudo lshw
[06:20] <hack> hola
[06:20] <shoeunited> alright
[06:20] <shoeunited> Alright, just a moment. :)
[06:22] <shoeunited> xtknight, http://pastebin.com/m3cdfdf35
[06:22] <openro1>  I tried with a same video dvd, 1gb
[06:22] <openro1> 600mb copied sucessfully and also played till that 600mb in ubuntu... but windows stopped inbetween and deleted the file
[06:22] <softwaretech> Can someone help me get setup a Lexmark printer on Ubuntu?
[06:23] <openro1> so felt amasing to learn about few internals
[06:23] <xtknight> shoeunited, ah i dont see any bluetooth stuff in there.. usually lshw shows everything.  to be honest i dont know much about bluetooth, im sorry
[06:23] <shoeunited> Well, I appreciate the try. :)  But I know it has bluetooth cause the documentation says it's onboard and I got a button.  lol
[06:23] <xtknight> shoeunited, do check out the keyword bluetooth in Synaptic
[06:23] <xtknight> there's bluetoth device scanners and graphical utilities
[06:23] <shoeunited> I did.  They all turn up red.
[06:24] <shoeunited> Er.
[06:24] <shoeunited> To say, none of them worked :/
[06:24] <xtknight> yeah hmm
[06:24] <xtknight> shoeunited, humor me and restart the bluetooth service
[06:24] <Utalcn2me> shoeunited, it might be something silly like having it turned on at bootup, although i doubt it.
[06:24] <xtknight> try reload, and then restart  on sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth
[06:25] <tannji> can anyone help me with pulse audio setup?  seem to have sound according to meters, but no qaudio to headphones or speakers
[06:25] <shoeunited> Well, I'll try restarting the service first.   T_T
[06:25] <esac> shoeunited: whats wrong ?
[06:25] <xtknight> shoeunited, you have a bluetooth receiver right?
[06:25] <xtknight> or w/e you need
[06:25] <shoeunited> I got a phone with it.
[06:25] <shoeunited> And a laptop with it.
[06:25] <shoeunited> Am I missing something?
[06:26] <Ademan> does anyone know how to allocate more system ram as VRAM for intel GMA 915 integrated video devices?
[06:26] <esac> shoeunited: bluetooth is enabled on the phone ?
[06:26] <shoeunited> esac, yes
[06:26] <xtknight> shoeunited, i'm missing the model of yuour bluetooth receiver.  we need to find a driver for it, i tink
[06:26] <shoeunited> Hmmm
[06:26] <esac> shoeunited: from terminals, what does 'hcitool scan' show ?
[06:26] <xtknight> shoeunited, like the bluetooth adapter on the laptop.  it might be in lspci
[06:26] <shoeunited> No such device
[06:27] <keta> !lamp
[06:27] <shoeunited> Could I use an ndiswrapper for this?
[06:27] <shoeunited> Getting the drivers isn't very difficult.
[06:27] <esac> shoeunited: then its not finding a driver for your bluetooth receiver on your laptop
[06:27] <knoppix> hello guys
[06:27] <xtknight> shoeunited, ndiswrapper only suports NDIS(network) drivers
[06:27] <shoeunited> Alright. :)
[06:27] <knoppix> thank you for the help before
[06:27] <shoeunited> So. :/
[06:27] <shoeunited> lol
[06:27] <shoeunited> Point me in a direction and I'll start google attacking it. ^_^
[06:28] <esac> shoeunited: most laptops expose the bluetooth receiver as USB to linux. what does 'lsusb' show ?
[06:28] <shoeunited> What kills me is other people saying that the bluetooth works for them fine with Hardy.
[06:28] <esac> shoeunited: mine shows "Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0a5c:2110 Broadcom Corp. "
[06:28] <xtknight> shoeunited, with your model?>
[06:29] <jgoo> Right - firefox freezing issue - first, if you have no idea what I am talking about, don't ask me about my plugins - there is only one major cause of the 30-45 second freezes of firefox right? that is the fsync issue?
[06:29] <shoeunited> Lsusb shows 6 items.
[06:29] <xtknight> jgoo, fsync? hmm never heard of it?
[06:29] <shoeunited> there are 3 ports.
[06:29] <jgoo> is this still a widespread issue? I thought it was fixed - Firefox has been unusable for a month now.
[06:29] <Utalcn2me> anyone have a eee pc fully functional here running hardy?
[06:29] <shoeunited> My model is an Acer Aspire 4520
[06:29] <jgoo> xtknight, brave job
[06:29] <esac> shoeunited: pastebin it
[06:29] <shoeunited> Np.
[06:30] <knoppix> so thanks
[06:30] <chuy_max> esac, as the man says, it lists your usb devices
[06:30] <ng0L> jgoo: i have problem with browser on my ubuntu too, but it is not only firefox.
[06:30]  * esac meant to write a script so that you can do "command | /usr/bin/pastebin" but hasnt had a chance
[06:30] <myr> Utalcn2me, i installed hardy on my eee and it worked ok. i then installed eeexubuntu because it runs faster
[06:30] <shoeunited> http://pastebin.com/d1da28423
[06:30] <binskipy2u> anyone tell me what the command is (if its possible) for force install an i386 package on ubuntu x86_64?
[06:30] <esac> chuy_max: ???
[06:30] <chuy_max> esac, lol
[06:30] <xtknight> binskipy2u, add --force-architecture
[06:30] <xtknight> to dpkg
[06:30] <chuy_max> that was dumb, sorry
[06:30] <xtknight> proceed at your own risk
[06:30] <jgoo> So, I am googling around for other possible 'firefox freezing' issues - but I can't believe that it isn't widespread, I have a vanilla install here on two machines, and on both if I open a few too many tabs, or close a few too many, it greys out.
[06:31] <binskipy2u> does it "always work" when you force it?
[06:31] <binskipy2u> i mean, will it at least install
[06:31] <Utalcn2me> myr, i bet compiz doesn't work well on it, does it?
[06:31]  * shoeunited coughs metacity --replace
[06:31] <jgoo> Surely this is on of those fast diagnosis problems, but there is nothing in the /title on this chan, and in the bug report, which I read all of, nothing to suggest any real fix or work around
[06:31] <jgoo> then that idiotic blog post assigning blame to someone else.
[06:31] <xtknight> jgoo, what is the link to the bug report?
[06:32] <jgoo> xtknight, google: firefox fsync bug
[06:32] <myr> Utalcn2me, i'm not really sure; i didn't use hardy for more than a few days. i recall it worked fine though
[06:33] <tannji> anyone able to help me configure pulse audio?
[06:33] <Utalcn2me> myr, i want one, i bet xubuntu would work perfect on it
[06:33] <jgoo> Froze again, this time clicking play on an embedded flash - actually, I saw a post recently 'flash no longer kills firefox on linux' ?
[06:33] <jgoo> adobe have updated flash player? maybe it is flash causing all these freezes, the tab I was just on opened two embedded youtube videos
[06:34] <xtknight> i heard of problems with flash 10
[06:34] <shoeunited> jgoo, what kind of video card are you using?
[06:34] <myr> Utalcn2me, it runs quite nice ;]
[06:34] <Utalcn2me> jgoo, try deleting .mozilla, maybe it's something like that
[06:34] <Jack_Sparrow> jgoo is this ff3 from ubuntu repos or did you dl it yourself
[06:34] <myr> Utalcn2me, boots around 55 seconds
[06:34] <shoeunited> I've had this problem before.
[06:34] <shoeunited> A few different times.
[06:34] <shoeunited> lol  On different setups.
[06:34] <myr> Utalcn2me, i have the 701 model
[06:34] <jgoo> shoeunited, no idea, ordered PC, got sent something entirely different with vista on it, I just put ubuntu cd in and installed, and everything worked, compiz too, so really I had no cause to know what graphics card I am using... which is quite impressive really
[06:35] <Jack_Sparrow> jgoo is this ff3 from ubuntu repos or did you dl it yourself
[06:35] <jgoo> If only people would stop asking me to fix their broken windows installs now...
[06:35] <ShaqFu2Fu> Hi, I'm trying to install Martian on 64 bit Hardy to get a lucent modem to work. Only problem is when I go to 'make all' it returns an error along the lines of 'gnu/stubs-32.h' no such file or directory. It's a 64/32 bit thing? any ideas on what to get to fix it, if it's possible?
[06:35] <Utalcn2me> myr sounds sweet #}  im holding out for the 1000
[06:35] <shoeunited> One was an Nvidia 6800 (heating issue)  one was an old computer (Compiz issue) and one was a driver issue (get envy)
[06:35] <jgoo> Jack_Sparrow, hrm, the one that was installed with ubuntu (the a1) and then running the updates
[06:35] <Jester45> jgoo: i have the same problem normally with flash videos but sometimes without flash on pages.
[06:36] <jgoo> Utalcn2me, I will try deleting that
[06:36] <jgoo> Jester45, Yeah, sometimes I just have 20 reddit tabs open, or even 2/3 tabs, and it will do it.
[06:36] <jgoo> If I delete .mozilla in future, will I lose all extensions?
[06:36] <shoeunited> Yes.
[06:37] <shoeunited> You'll have to re-get those extensions.
[06:37] <shoeunited> Try getting envy first.
[06:37] <ng0L> shoeunited: how to delete .mozilla?
[06:37] <Jack_Sparrow> jgoo THe problem can easily be in the different extensions
[06:37] <jgoo> ok. I just closed a tab, and it froze again... this could take a while hrm, once it starts, it doesn't stop
[06:37] <xtknight> how did you figure it was the fsync problem?
[06:37] <Jack_Sparrow> shoeunited Please dont tell people to do that
[06:37] <Jester45> jgoo: but ff3 did fix a ajax update memory leak/cache problem if i let the ajax update go each update was cached.. so after a few days all my memory was gone
[06:37] <shoeunited> Alright.
[06:37] <shoeunited> >.>
[06:37] <jgoo> xtknight, I upgraded, it started freezing, and I read about other people saying it was freezing
[06:37] <Utalcn2me> jgoo, it will be worth it though if it fixes it, i haven't any problems for a while with mine and multiple tabs, flash
[06:38] <Jack_Sparrow> shoeunited "Envy" is not a good thing to do to your computer
[06:38] <jgoo> never had a problem with firefox and I have been using it since phoenix
[06:38] <xtknight> jgoo, i see.  are you getting the messages like in bug 221009
[06:38] <Zimbo> Hi guys... quick question: Where do I find the settings for my Ethernet card in Ubuntu 8.04?   System->Admin->Network only shows "Wired Connection" and "Point to Point Connection," but not an Ethernet card... even though it's clearly installed and running since I'm using it here. :-)  I want to go and change, e.g., whether it uses a DHCP server or has a fixed IP, etc.
[06:38] <esac> shoeunited: can i ask how you know you have bluetooth on the laptop ?
[06:38] <manguy> what is Envy?
[06:38] <xtknight> [75613.478586] firefox(21767): dirtied inode 4784273 (places.sqlite-stmtjrnl) on dm-2
[06:38] <xtknight> etc??
[06:38] <shoeunited> It's on the box, in the specs, and there's a bluetooth button above they keyboard.
[06:38] <xtknight> !envy | manguy
[06:38] <esac> manguy: Envy is when you desire something that someone else has
[06:38] <Ayabara> I'm trying to get started with c++ today. Anyone got a good IDE to recommend? I use emacs at the moment, but it would be nice to have something that could offer me a bit of free help with code completion and stuff
[06:38] <jgoo> xtknight, ? I think he was running debugging
[06:38] <shoeunited> And before I formatted Vista home Prem.  It had it.
[06:38] <manguy> Thanks
[06:39] <jgoo> xtknight, without that he was just seeing this behaviour
[06:39] <shoeunited> And there's vista drivers.
[06:39] <esac> shoeunited: ok i ask because i was reading that some 4520's dont have it :)
[06:39] <Jester45> Zimbo: run ifconfig in a terminal to show the settings
[06:39] <Jack_Sparrow> manguy A script that tries to install your drivers,  We reworked a version of it for your repos, but the original can mess you up and keep the real drivers from working
[06:39] <shoeunited> Well, it came to my mind too.  hehe ^_^
[06:39] <Zimbo> Jester45: That works, but surely there's a GUI somewhere to edit the settings?
[06:39] <manguy> Jack_Sparrow: Ack, that's not good
[06:39] <xtknight> jgoo, he was running it from the terminal, i'm not sure if he used debug but that would be the next step is to see if it really is fsync
[06:40] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy
[06:40] <esac> shoeunited: a couple of other posts ive read say that bluetooth works out of the box on hardy. do you get the bluetooth icon in your system tray ?
[06:40] <shoeunited> I suppose I could just buy a usb bluetooth adapter from Wal-mart.  Do those work out of the box?
[06:40] <EvilSpork> Hiya... I have a really weird question. I'm running two lcd monitors on an nvidia card with TwinView enabled. If I'm using totem, even if it's just playing an audio file and no video, it somehow causes one or both of my monitors to get fed an impossible signal and blank out. I've actually had the monitor tell me it's getting a 30 fps refresh rate...!!
[06:40] <shoeunited> No I don't.  That's what's killing me. lol
[06:40] <Jester45> Zimbo: system > administration > network tools > device > configure
[06:40] <xtknight> EvilSpork, is tv out enabled in totem or something
[06:40] <EvilSpork> What's up with that? There are no video modes in xorg.conf that would have such wacky parameters.
[06:40] <EvilSpork> Unknown, going to check.
[06:40] <EvilSpork> 30 hz does sound like a TV res...
[06:40] <Jester45> Zimbo: my wording might be off i dont use gnome so im going from memory
[06:41] <esac> shoeunited: when i run 'hcitool scan' it says Scanning ... and then just goes back to a prompt since there are no devices. i know this probably isnt helpful at all :(
[06:41] <EvilSpork> No TV out
[06:41] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> is there any other email clients cause i cant understand how mutt works and i searched in google i cant find any  useful link for tat
[06:41] <cruddpuppet> Can someone help me set up screenlets?
[06:41] <Jester45> EvilSpork: thats a TV frequency :) not resoultion
[06:41] <cruddpuppet> I have been trying all day, and do not know what to do. ;-;
[06:41] <shoeunited> esac, I recieved the same results.
[06:41] <Jester45> !ask | cruddpuppet
[06:41] <Zimbo> Jester45: Thanks, that works on this machine.  On another one "Configure" is greyed out... any idea why that might be?
[06:41] <EvilSpork> Sorry, I know, brainfart
[06:42] <shoeunited> I appreciate the help, and I'll be back.  But I'm going to check if it wasn't turned off in bios. :)
[06:42] <esac> shoeunited: oh, i thought you said it said "no such device" ?
[06:42] <cruddpuppet> How do I install screenlets? Every time I try using one of the screenlet applications, I keep getting ImportErrors from python.
[06:42] <shoeunited> Oh, yes, that one did.
[06:42] <Jester45> Zimbo: is it your loopback? you cant chage settings for that its only a local interface and shouldnt matter
[06:42] <shoeunited> I was thinking of another
[06:42] <esac> oh ok :)
[06:42] <un2him> how do you upgrade to 8.04.1 that just came out?
[06:43] <Utalcn2me> welkin, you configure mutt at the .muttrc, but there are others, although i havent used them - i think someone mentioned pine, or alpine witch is a non-free one
[06:43] <EvilSpork> When the problem occurrs, it persists after totem is closed. My method of getting the video back has been to blindly hit the logout button and switch user, which restarts the x server and gets both back on
[06:43] <dumples> can anyone walk me through installing Compiz?
[06:43] <Zimbo> Jester45: I take it back, even on this machine when I click "Configure" (for Eth0) it says, "The interface does not exist," even though the main dialog is correctly tallying up xmitted bytes/received bytes, etc!
[06:43] <evilbug> un2him- you can just use update manager.
[06:43] <shoeunited> Jack_Sparrow, Sorry didn't mean to butt in.  I'm a bit over the top.  >.>
[06:43] <evilbug> un2him- or the alternative/live cd.
[06:43] <esac> shoeunited: what does "hcitool dev" list ?
[06:43] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> do u know how to configure in .muttrc?
[06:43] <EvilSpork> I don't know if it has anything to do with the two monitors having different res's; both are 1024 high, but one is widescreen and the other's just a 1280x1024
[06:44] <shoeunited> It says Devices:   and then the following line is prompt.
[06:44] <cruddpuppet> How do I install screenlets? Every time I try using one of the screenlet applications, I keep getting ImportErrors from python. ;-;
[06:44] <chuy_max> dumples, I think its installed by default, you have to install the correct drivers if they are not
[06:44] <esac> shoeunited: ok well that confirms that it isnt finding your bluetooth adapter.
[06:44] <bullgard4> un2him: Press System > Administration > Update Manager. That's it. Version .1 is only a CD version.
[06:45] <didymus7777> ok, what is the diffrence, besides the gui install between the server and the desktop ubuntu
[06:45] <shoeunited> Thank you esac :)   I'm gonna make a run to the Bios and see if it wasn't disabled.
[06:45] <Jester45> Zimbo: may be a strange thing but try turning off eth0 then configure... idk it would work but it just seems like somthing you would need to do
[06:45] <esac> shoeunited: good idea :)
[06:45] <Jester45> Zimbo: but thats just a blind guess
[06:45] <un2him> bullgard4: thanks.
[06:45] <Zimbo> Jester45: I guess I'll be gone for a moment then, while I it down -- thanks for the help
[06:45] <Zimbo> while I shut it down
[06:46] <Jester45> didymus7777: i think desktop install uses sudo and server install enables root
[06:46] <Jester45> didymus7777: but i may be wrong i just remeber reading that somewhere
[06:46] <EvilSpork> Server doesn't have root enabled by default
[06:46] <EvilSpork> as far as I know
[06:47] <chuy_max> !root
[06:47] <Utalcn2me> welkin, yes and no, been a while - but there are many examples on google, that you could copy and modify in your own .muttrc - but some are using imap and other wierd examples
[06:47] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> k... thanks....
[06:47] <RAdams> why is update-usplash-theme not able to use the usplash.so files I dropped into /usr/lib/usplash?  "sudo update-usplash-theme dark-ubuntu" returns "update-alternatives: Cannot find alternative `/usr/lib/usplash/dark-ubuntu.so'." when the file is there with same ownership/permissions as the working default...
[06:48] <myr> thats freakin sweet
[06:48] <jgoo_> What happens when you load a few tabs to try and get firefox to hit the bug you've been seeing?
[06:48] <jgoo_> Segmentation fault
[06:48] <EvilSpork> Well, you can know the root password, if you set it :D
[06:48] <dumples> im trying to get the wobbly windows and such
[06:48] <EvilSpork> sudo passwd root
[06:48] <EvilSpork> but this is not recommended.
[06:48] <dumples> and it isnt working
[06:48] <RAdams> there's no need to set the root password
[06:48] <EvilSpork> Ok, I think I may have my issue figured out. It's a quirk with the nvidia binary driver and how it handles refresh rates, or rather, how it fakes 'em.
[06:48] <RAdams> sudo su if you need to do extended root tasks
[06:49] <ePax> Sudo -i works fine 2
[06:49] <RAdams> that too
[06:49] <enos> !wine
[06:49] <EvilSpork> http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/169.07/README/chapter-07.html#id2546809
[06:49] <EvilSpork> This looks like the answer.
[06:49] <EvilSpork> Gonna test it... brb
[06:49] <RAdams> why is update-usplash-theme not able to use the usplash.so files I dropped into /usr/lib/usplash?  "sudo update-usplash-theme dark-ubuntu" returns "update-alternatives: Cannot find alternative `/usr/lib/usplash/dark-ubuntu.so'." when the file is there with same ownership/permissions as the working default...
[06:49] <jgoo_> Actually, I have the EXACT same problem on an XP machine, where firefox freezes - the only difference is it obviously doesn't give a visual cue that it has frozen
[06:50] <EvilSpork> Yow! Didn't work!
[06:50] <bullgard4> [GNOME] What is the name of the program which will show the icons of all open programs on the current workspace in the middle of the screen, if you press Alt+Tab?
[06:50] <ePax> !nvidia | EvilSpork
[06:51] <didymus7777> so if root is not inabled in the server addition (i actually like that) then there is really nothing diffrent between the server addition and the desktop?  agian other then the gui.  If someone knowes were I can go to compair the two that would work too. I hate bugging people, But I also hate searching for days
[06:51] <Utalcn2me> dumples, you set up stuff for compiz in your compizconfig-settings-manager - also you need to turn compiz on
[06:52] <ePax> didymus7777: By default on all ubuntus root is not enabled. But you can log in ass user root with sudo -i
[06:52] <RAdams> didymus7777: the server edition has several tweaks to work well in such an environment, and also does not include tools geared more towards desktop uses. for more info, see the ubuntu server wiki or #ubuntu-server
[06:52] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> do u knw how to work in irssi
[06:52] <didymus7777> thank you RAdams
[06:52] <Utalcn2me> dumples, also you might have to set visual setting to extra
[06:53] <RAdams> why is update-usplash-theme not able to use the usplash.so files I dropped into /usr/lib/usplash?  "sudo update-usplash-theme dark-ubuntu" returns "update-alternatives: Cannot find alternative `/usr/lib/usplash/dark-ubuntu.so'." when the file is there with same ownership/permissions as the working default...
[06:53] <Utalcn2me> welkin, once again irssi uses a .rc file to store your configurations
[06:54] <Jester45> ePax: watch your language :)
[06:54] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> do u knw how to quit it... i cant quit it
[06:54] <ePax> Jester45: -s (;
[06:54] <ubunubi> i'm trying to add my swap partition to fstab...does it need a mountpoint?
[06:54] <Jester45> ubunubi: no make the mount point none
[06:55] <ubunubi> jester: does swap even need an fstab entry?
[06:55] <Jester45> ubunubi: if you want to have it activated after each boot
[06:55] <Utalcn2me> welkin, sorry, it's been a while, and i used to be into it like you are getting into it, im too lazy and old to remember much any more :P  i think you quit with a /bye or something
[06:55] <RAdams> ubunubi:  "none            swap    sw              0       0" by default
[06:55] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> k.. ill try
[06:55] <dumples> it wont let me switch to extra, it starts going into a cosby-like rant about restricted drivers
[06:56] <Utalcn2me> welkin, irssi has a great help file - try /help
[06:56] <brdk_ayat2_metal> aya awe2an eweuh
[06:56] <RAdams> dumples: you need to have a video driver installed capable of supporting compiz effects
[06:56] <ePax> dumples: Did you install your drivers properly? nvidia or ati? is it enabled in restricted drivers?
[06:56] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> it helped.... it works..... finally it quit
[06:57] <Jester45> ubunubi: i dont use swap unless i see my memory getting used up then i make a swapfile.. but i guess i could just set swapiness to 0 if i dont want to use it till the end
[06:57] <ubunubi> Jester45: i have swappiness set to 0. but i need swap space for hibernation i'm told
[06:57] <Jester45> ubunubi: true
[06:58] <Utalcn2me> welkin, keep trying, you will be a command line genius before you know it
[06:58] <dumples> its enabled, im not sure what kind of video driver i have, i got the computer from a friend with a broken windows system on it and decided to install ubuntu, when i opened it up there were spiderwebs and crap all throughout it :( i didnt think to check it out when i had it open
[06:58] <ubunubi> Jester45: so i have swappiness set to 0 so it's not used for real swap space (i think), and 2x RAM for hibernate
[06:58] <welkin> utalcn2me>>> thanks a lot.... i gtg now.. bye....
[06:58] <RAdams> ubunubi, jester45: even if you do not typically use the swap space, it is highly recommended for system stability.
[06:58] <Jester45> ubunubi: hibernation puts all  your ram onto disk (read swap) so that after a reboot it just puts all the swap/ram back into ram
[06:59] <ubunubi> Jester45: nod. that's how i understand it. getting hibernate to work with ati drivers should be fun
[06:59] <ubunubi> about to test it
[06:59] <RAdams> Jester45: it also writes to the head of the active partition as well :)
[06:59] <dumples> So, how would I check my sysyem specs without opening up my computer
[06:59] <Jester45> RAdams: i dont like waiting for my disk to spin up.. and it a 4 drive raid so its a lot of unneeded noise/energy
[06:59] <ubunubi> brb wish me luck
[06:59] <RAdams> jester45: swappiness to 0 is better than no swap at all, for sanity
[06:59] <aliasnexus0> is anyone here savvy with setting up a fusion5 pci card under mythbuntu?
[07:00] <RAdams> !ask | aliasnexus0
[07:00] <Jester45> well im not sane then
[07:00] <RAdams> Jester45: fair enough :)
[07:00] <Jester45> lol
[07:00] <Knome> how long does a ban last??
[07:00] <karasuman> 1247 people?  Wow.
[07:00] <RAdams> has anyone successfully switched usplash themes in hardy?
[07:00] <dumples> ....just realized the sticker on the front, is a "4X AGP nVIdia TNT2 M64 good enough to run it?
[07:01] <Jester45> forever or untill the end of time... what ever comes first
[07:01] <aliasnexus0> well that's fair enough. i have mythbuntu working great with a pvr-150 card, my fusion5 hdtv is giving me issues on the other hand.
[07:01] <Jester45> Knome: im not sure that was a joke
[07:01] <RAdams> dumples: considering I'm running compiz effects on a card 3 generations older than that, probably :)
[07:01] <Knome> Jester45: what?
[07:01] <_NiC> If I use prevu to build backported packages from intrepid for use on hardy, how much trouble might I get when I want to do a dist-upgrade later?
[07:01] <Knome> Jester45: my quit?
[07:02] <dumples> well thats good to know, so how would i find these fabled drivers of lore?
[07:02] <EvilSpork> Blaaaaargh. I've even tried fixing the resolutions/refresh rates from nvidia-settings
[07:02] <RAdams> _NiC: depends on if they're being tracked by dpkg.
[07:02] <Jester45> Knome: i made a stupid joke just ignore me
[07:02] <RAdams> !restricteddrivers | dumples
[07:02] <EvilSpork> the driver still scrambles it!
[07:02] <RAdams> ah screw off bot
[07:02] <_NiC> radams, they will be, I was thinking about doing the compiles on a separate box, and then add those to a local repository for the other servers
[07:02] <RAdams> dumples: Restricted hardware Drivers
[07:02] <Karsynoma> Alright, gents, I seem to be having a bit of a problem. As juvenile as it sounds, I'm having a bit of trouble running the OpenGL-run form of RuneScape, and although their dedicated area of the FAQ does help with resolution, there's another issue.
[07:03] <Knome> Jester45: oh, well i was banned after i exited the channel because my quit message was kiss my a**, in ##linux
[07:03] <myr> my laptop case has a small crack, can i download some software to fix it?
[07:03] <ubunubi> Jester45: sadly didn't work. when i clicked hibernate it waited a bit, then shutdown ,but when i powered on the machine it went through the regular boot process -- suggestions?
[07:03] <EvilSpork> Uh, yeah, check http://jbweld.net/
[07:03] <Jester45> Knome: well that depends on the channel. you might have to talk to a channel op about that
[07:03] <RAdams> _NiC: you should be ok, as the dist-upgrade will have a higher version, but YMMV :)
[07:04] <Utalcn2me> im running compiz using the open ati driver and it works great, although i cant get the raindrop effect to work, i don't have anything to compare it to though
[07:04] <RAdams> has anyone successfully switched usplash themes in hardy?
[07:04] <_NiC> radams: as always.. :-) I would like to have a newer rsyslog for some queuing-support and relp.. hardy has 1.19 and I want 3.16+ :)
[07:04] <Karsynoma> The problem is pretty much this; while the game does load and the graphics do display properly, I have to continuously move the mouse in order to keep the frames moving, otherwise it'll just stop on one frame and not move at all.
[07:05] <Jester45> Utalcn2me: i had the same problem on a radeon 9250 but it works on my x300
[07:05] <unop> Knome, it's upto the channel ops really -- could be an hour, could be a month, forever - depends -- not nice using profanity anywhere on freenode
[07:05] <Karsynoma> The question is, what would cause this to occur in an OpenGL-run Java application?
[07:05] <Jack_Sparrow> knome You were banned in ubuntu and kubuntu and now you are ban evading
[07:05] <Jack_Sparrow> ?
[07:05] <Knome> ?
[07:05] <RAdams> !enter | Karsynoma
[07:05] <Utalcn2me> Jester45, im using an ati9200 i think - works anyway
[07:06] <Knome> ive never entered kubuntu
[07:06] <Karsynoma> ubottu: My apologies, I'll rephrase the question.
[07:06] <Karsynoma> Ugh.
[07:06] <_NiC> hehe
[07:06] <Jester45> Utalcn2me: everythign else in compiz worked just not water. can you make the drops with your mouse ? i  coudnt do anything
[07:06] <Jack_Sparrow> knome It looks like those were both removed already
[07:06] <RAdams> _NiC: you should be alright... just make sure any and all dependencies updated to satisfy your new packages are tracked through dpkg... it is never safe to assume that just because the primary package you build is tracked in dpkg, that the dependencies are too
[07:06] <Knome> and i talked to someone in ubuntu-ops and i changed my exit message and they unbanned me
[07:06] <Jester45> Utalcn2me: i can give you a screenshot if you would like
[07:07] <Karsynoma> Alright, more important things are going on here, I'll wait until later to get the question answered.
[07:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Knome I was going by ip..
[07:07] <RAdams> Knome: your ban in ##linux needs to be taken up with the admins there
[07:07] <ubunubi> My Hibernation didn't go as planned. It shutdown properly, but powering on my machine went through the normal boot process (Instead of loading the hibernation file back into RAM) -- any suggestions?
[07:07] <_NiC> radams, yeah.
[07:07] <RAdams> Karsynoma: all you have to do is ask the question on one line, to make it easy for us to read. if someone knows, someone will answer.
[07:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Knome that was pici that did that for you
[07:07] <Knome> RAdams: i asked about it in linux-ops but no one said anything yet
[07:07] <Utalcn2me> Jester45, fire works - and maybe some other stuff doesn't work - but no raindrops
[07:07] <_NiC> radams, thanks for your input. :)
[07:08] <RAdams> _NiC: sounds like you're all set. good luck, have fun with that :)
[07:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Knome FYI it is offtopic in here
[07:08] <_NiC> radams, thanks:)
[07:08] <Knome> Jack_Sparrow: i know, i brought it up in linux- but no one said anything and i needed help somewhere
[07:08] <Knome> *linux-ops
[07:08]  * myr has reset peer's connection
[07:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Knome And I am asking nicely to stop..
[07:09] <_NiC> knome, that doesn't make it any more on-topic
[07:09] <bazhang> !ot > Knome
[07:10] <Karsynoma> Alright, the issue is with the new version of RuneScape, the one that is apparently run with OpenGL, for some reason I can load the game itself, but the Java applet requires me to constantly move the mouse around on it to update what's on the screen. The drivers for my ATI card support OpenGL (can't think of one that doesn't), and I can run other OpenGL games with no issue. Any suggestions as to why this would be o
[07:10] <Karsynoma> ccuring?
[07:10] <Jack_Sparrow> bazhang goodnight
[07:10] <bazhang> cya Jack_Sparrow
[07:10] <lat> Why am I getting the following when running aticonfig: "Uninitialised file found, configuring.
[07:10] <lat> Error: Section # expected
[07:10] <lat> aticonfig: parsing the command-line failed.
[07:10] <karasuman> I sort of have a less linux-y question, but if anyone knows about stuff like this and wants to help, I'd appreciate it.  ;)  I don't understand the concept of NP-completeness, even after reading the wikipedia page.
[07:11] <RAdams> Karsynoma: what JRE are you using? what version is it?
[07:11] <Karsynoma> RAdams: I'm using JRE 1.6, the one that shipped with Linux Mint Elyssa/Hardy.
[07:11] <rand0m> this is a total long shot but is it at all possible to resume a bittorrent download that i started in winxp (on my ntfs partition obviously)
[07:11] <rand0m> while running ubuntu
[07:11] <jkoltner> OK, I have two machines that are now working just fine with their Ethernet cards, but "sudo network-admin --configure eth0" just produces the error message, "The interface does not exist...," even though ifconfig certainly shows an eth0 with an assigned IP address, etc.  Anyone know what's going on?
[07:12] <encoded> hellloo
[07:12] <_NiC> rand0m, should be, copy the files and do a rehash. can't hurt. :>
[07:12] <Karsynoma> RAdams: Let me rephrase that, it's version 6. I'm thinking of the plugin.
[07:12] <Jester45> rand0m: yes put the data in your download directory for bittorrent and start it. if your windows  client is set for full allocation set bittorrent to the same, or sparse to sparse. it might help
[07:13] <RAdams> Karsynoma: I would check and see if that version satisfies RuneScape. Sounds like an issue with the JRE if anything. Might want to check the TransGaming forums and their dev team, they've done a lot of work on that and might know.
[07:13] <dumples> How would i install a restricted driver?
[07:13] <ePax> jkoltner: Your comp mught be using ath0 or eth1... type ifconfig to see
[07:13] <RAdams> dumples: check it off, enter your password, grab a cup of coffee, come back, restart
[07:13] <jkoltner> Would anyone be willing to try "sudo network-admin --configure eth0" on their own machine and let me know if they get the same error message or not?  (I'm using 8.04, BTW.)
[07:14] <dumples> Its checked, it just isnt working
[07:14] <jkoltner> ePax: It's using eth0... the first few lines of ifconfig are: eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:17:08:41:b1:91
[07:14] <jkoltner>           inet addr:<IP_ADDRESS>  Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS>  Mask:<IP_ADDRESS>
[07:14] <karasuman> I'll give it a try, jkoltner, unless someone screams "NO DON'T THAT'S DUMB"
[07:14] <jkoltner> Thanks karasuman
[07:14] <dumples> It would be in the hardware drivers section right?
[07:15] <karasuman> unable to look up session information.  sorry. :-/
[07:15] <RAdams> dumples: yes. if it isn't working, then i would google around using your exact card model and see if others had that problem... sometimes you need to tweak xorg or your modules to get it working right.
[07:15] <jkoltner> Hmm.... it seems as though the network tools in 8.04 aren't quite in line with whatever's really going on in Ubuntu networking these days
[07:16] <dumples> would you mind explaining xorg?
[07:16] <ubunubi> can something that asks for a partitions UUID also be referenced with /dev/sdaX ?
[07:16] <dumples> i have no idea what it is
[07:16] <RAdams> ubunubi: depends on what it is
[07:17] <jkoltner> Ah, this is apparently a known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/184711
[07:17] <RAdams> !xorg | dumples
[07:17] <jkoltner> Thanks for the confirmation, ubottu
[07:17] <ubunubi> RAdams: i looked up a tutorial on fixing my hibernate issue. it says i have to rebuild my initramfs by creating a initramfs/conf/conf.d/resume  file containing something like "RESUME=UUID=11e49f41-85e5-4889-873e-efc1be92f07d"
[07:18] <ubunubi> RAdams: my swap (in fstab) doesn't have a UUID seemingly set. so i'm wondering if it's okay to reference it via /dev/sda7 instead
[07:18] <jkoltner> Bizarre that these sorts of bugs make it into full releases -- I mean, this seems like the kind of error I could see my grandmother running into... but of course I'm just happy that Ubuntu works in general!
[07:18] <karasuman> it seems like there a lot of bugs that make it into this kind of thing...
[07:18] <unop> RAdams, it should be ok
[07:18] <dumples> thanks, also what is with people putting a ! in front of words?
[07:18] <karasuman> but at least it's the sort of thing that actually affects the people who fix it, so it might get fixed someday :)
[07:18] <karasuman> alternatively, at least you didn't pay for it. :)
[07:18] <Karsynoma> RAdams: The minimum Java requirement to run the game is 1.4.2, so I should be in the clear. If anyone else would care to give it a go, here's a direct link to one of the worlds running this version of the game. No login required, what gets displayed is more or less a compatibility test. As mentioned, the resolution isn't a problem, I've got that working: http://world73.runescape.com/p0,g1
[07:18] <jkoltner> Good point
[07:18] <unop> dumples, that's people asking the bot to tell you about factoids
[07:19] <Karsynoma> RAdams: Thanks for your assistance either way.
[07:19] <karasuman> I just switched to Ubuntu about a month ago because Dell wouldn't let me get my laptop with XP.
[07:19] <RAdams> ubunubi: find the uuid of the drive in question then: sudo vol_id -u /dev/sd{whatever}
[07:19] <karasuman> I can't believe that's what it took!
[07:19] <babola1> SITUATION: 2 Hard disks: /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. sda has default ubuntu partition table. sdb has two partitions: first is ntfs, second is ext2. QUESTION: How do you identify the ntfs partition in the form/convention (hd0,0) ?
[07:19] <karasuman> I'd never go back.
[07:19] <kapace> k, i just compiled http://www.trunix.org/programlama/os/elf-hl/Documentation/elf/node7.html ,this in ubuntu and it says "bash: ./dltest: Permission denied" and im root
[07:19] <RAdams> Karsynoma: good luck
[07:19] <ubunubi> RAdams: thanks. found it
[07:20] <babola1> kapace: use sudo
[07:20] <kapace> i di
[07:20] <kapace> im root
[07:20] <RAdams> ubunubi: in that case it is fine to use /dev/{whatever}, but uuid is preferred
[07:20] <jkoltner> Karasuman: At least for use at home, the only real app that doesn't exist for Linux is something like Delorme Street Atlas USA.  Other than that I'd be a full-time Ubuntu user.
[07:20] <ubunubi> RAdams: what's the difference? technically speaking?
[07:20] <_NiC> ubunubi, the uuid's will not change, the /dev/* might
[07:20] <karasuman> I still have my PC with XP on it for when I really need it, I guess.  Mostly, that's playing games.
[07:20] <RAdams> ubunubi: uuid doesn't change with the drive's place in the chain
[07:20] <babola1> kapace: check ownership of the directory ./ or use chmod 777 or chown user
[07:21] <ubunubi> RAdams: so the uuid is some type of hash of the partition that makes it truly unique?
[07:21] <kapace> babola1: ok just a sec
[07:21] <RAdams> !uuid | ubunubi
[07:21] <babola1> SITUATION: 2 Hard disks: /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. sda has default ubuntu partition table. sdb has two partitions: first is ntfs, second is ext2. QUESTION: How do you identify the ntfs partition in the form/convention (hd0,0) ?
[07:21] <babola1> !repeat
[07:21] <unop> ubunubi, not a has no -- the uuid is written to the filesystem when it is created
[07:22] <unop> ubunubi, so as long as the filesytem is not formatted again -- it will continue to have the same UUID
[07:22] <unop> hash*
[07:22] <ariqs> I got the spring maps package and I got spring, but I sitll can't play single player games cause it demands I choose a mod and there is no mod to choose
[07:23] <ubunubi> RAdams: someone in a forum post mentions that the UUID of a swap partition can change over time (potentially) ? can you verify/disqualify that?
[07:23] <unop> babola1, second physical disk, first partition -- numbering starts at 0 -- so you get  hd1,0
[07:23] <kapace> babola1: ok did chmod 777 . and checked perms, but still no joy
[07:23] <arooni> (firefox error) /tmp/GHC-Consolidated-Financial-Statements06-07.pdf could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred.  ... why would this happen?
[07:23] <babola1> unop: thanks unop
[07:23] <unop> ubunubi, did you get my last post to you?
[07:23] <kapace> babola1: could it be something to do with libdl
[07:23] <kapace> ?
[07:24] <babola1> kapace: i'm in grub hell right now.. ask someone else.. sorry
[07:24] <kapace> ok
[07:24] <ubunubi> unop: yes, but someone mentioned that swap space is handled different from a regular file system. they didn't state why they think the uuid for their swap changes continuously
[07:25] <RAdams> ubunubi: only if you actually change where the swap is partitioned... some installs use a "tear-up-tear-down" swap, where it never lives on a given partition, it is just created on demand. IMHO, this is a waste of resources and not a stable/sane solution. Long story short: a given partition will retain its UUID until it is reformatted.
[07:26] <ubunubi> radams: k, thanks :) ..now it mentioned i have to recompile/compress this initramfs i have currently decompressed. is there an easy way do to that?
[07:26] <unop> ubunubi, I don't think the assertion is true -- if it were, you'd see a lot of people in here with problems related to that possibility,  i'm not ruling the possibility out, i'm just saying it's quite unlikely
[07:26] <RAdams> ubunubi: sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`
[07:27] <ubunubi> unop: radams explanation explains it. if someone doesn't have a defined swap partition, a temporary swap might be created on demand and thus move around
[07:27] <ubunubi> radams: will that ask where i currently have this changed one decompressed?
[07:28] <RAdams> ubunubi: that will recompile the kernel currently in use. what are you trying to do?
[07:29] <ubunubi> radams: i extracted my current initramfs so i could create a file absent (but needed) for hibernation. now that i have my current one extracted, i added the file, now i need the extracted one packed back up, to replace my current packed one
[07:29] <ubunubi> radams: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=781809    following post#1's idea. they just don't explain the steps for the repacking
[07:30] <ubunubi> radams: my initramfs was lacking a /conf/conf.d/resume file telling it where my hibernate image was located (i didn't have swap space when this kernel was compiled)
[07:31] <djzn> I am noticing that my new hard drive which nas "Native Command Queueing" is *HELL* fast on Windows. I checked its properties in the device manager and the "Enable Command Queueing" is TICKED. The chipset is a MCP61 (nvidia). In Linux, the dmesg message said that the NCQ had a depth of 0/31, that is, was not enabled. What's going on?
[07:31] <abhi_>  hi, i am using ubuntu8.04. which has python preinstalled. yesterday i had installed the python by compiling from source. before that python precess was running in background. after installing the new python i am not able applications which depend on python..
[07:31] <arooni> who likes screenlets?  raise your hand!
[07:32] <ubunubi> djzn: NCQ won't give you any noticeable "hella speedup", unless your desktop is funtioning in a super high I/O capacity like a high traffic webserver...NCQ is likely not responsible for any speed difference between windows and your linux install
[07:32] <esac> !ot | arooni
[07:32] <ePax> abhi_: try to install python with synaptic and it will install alll dependencies as well.
[07:33] <derek> Does anyone know of how to go about getting a Broadcom BCM94311 card working in Ubuntu? Jockey recognized it and tried b43, but that didn't work. Neither did Ndiswrapper. Could someone please help?
[07:33] <djzn> ubunubi: hmmm interesting answer!!!
[07:33] <ariqs> I got the spring maps package and I got spring, but I sitll can't play single player games cause it demands I choose a mod and there is no mod to choose
[07:33] <abhi_> ePax, : i have checked the synaptic. it shows python2.5 installed.
[07:33] <ubunubi> djzn: in fact ncq can cause slight delays when used in a desktop environment with regular desktop file access patterns
[07:33] <mib_nq8a8z> stupid question: what exactly is a release? if all packages are continuously updated, what is the point of a new release?
[07:33] <djzn> ubunubi: hmmm i see
[07:34] <dezzer> anday
[07:34] <bullgard4> [GNOME] What is the name of the program which will show the icons of all open programs on the current workspace in the middle of the screen, if you press Alt+Tab?
[07:34] <Jester45> mib_nq8a8z: all packages are not continuously updated they are updated when its needed.
[07:34] <nickrud> mib_nq8a8z not all packages are updated after a release.
[07:34] <Blice> Hi. On the LiveCD, I hit esc and it took me to text mode. I'm trying to boot into a simple bash. Right now the screen reads "boot:_", do I just type in init=/bin/bash ?
[07:34] <mib_nq8a8z> so a release is an update of certain packages that are otherwise not updated?
[07:34] <djzn> ubunubi: good to know that.. would you think that Windows has the IDE chipset driver that came with the motherboard... that it could enable in windows, whereas the in-house chipset driver in linux kernel could not be providing that?
[07:35] <nickrud> mib_nq8a8z very few, relative to the number in the release. A release starts with a snapshot of debian unstable, then gets ubuntu's massaging/additions
[07:35] <RAdams> mib_nq8a8z: it's a signficant milestone, and allows a new user to jump into the game with a relatively up to date system. also, some packages are held back until the next release, as they can not be updated until certain dependencies are met. to get a better idea of the methodology of ubuntu's releases, check the roadmaps for the past and future releases to see what they went for/are going for
[07:35] <RAdams> ubunubi: find . -print -depth | cpio -ov > tree.cpio is what you want, according to the man page
[07:36] <Jester45> mib_nq8a8z: and when a large package say GNOME gets updated its generally along with a new release because so much stuff needs to be tested and new stuff added. also a new release means new defualt packages/artwork
[07:36] <abhi_> did anyone have any problem with new 8.04? I am frequently facing my system crash upon installing applications..
[07:36] <raj_> type /msg NickServ help
[07:36] <edlang> Hi -- I'm having difficulty using the python-simpleparse package when attempting to parse an EBNF grammar. Does anyone have experience with using the Ubuntu package?
[07:36] <mib_nq8a8z> i see. thanks, everyone
[07:37] <RAdams> abhi_:  we need more details than that. what is crashing? what errors show up in dmesg? does it happen everytime you install something? did you cleanly install 8.04, or was it an upgrade? if it was an upgrade, what did you upgrade from
[07:37] <ubunubi> radams: that gave me an error that doesn't make sense
[07:38] <RAdams> ubunubi: were you in the right directory when you did it? you need to be in your extracted source
[07:38] <ddalton> on hardy, how do we configure static ip address? same as debian? /etc/network/interfaces?
[07:38] <nickrud> ddalton that works fine
[07:39] <RAdams> ubunubi: you might want to read man cpio
[07:39] <ddalton> nickrud: what should a default interfaces file contain? it doesn't have any reference to eth0
[07:39] <ubunubi> RAdams: no, i wasnt (i was further down in the tree), however cd'ing back to /tmp where the extracted /tmp/initramfs is located seems to have run through the process but i don't see where it put the repackaged initramfs
[07:39] <ddalton> but ifconfig somehow gets an ip
[07:40] <RAdams> has anyone successfully changed their usplash in hardy?
[07:40] <RAdams> ddalton: is networkmanager installed/
[07:40] <RAdams> ?
[07:40] <nickrud> ddalton it's blank because NetworkManager is doing that for you. If you configure eth0 in interfaces, NetworkManager will skip eth0
[07:40] <raj_> can any one tell how to register in ##C ?
[07:40] <nickrud> !register | raj_  (most likely)
[07:40] <RAdams> !ot > raj_
[07:41] <luchador> anyone here play counter strike on ubuntu?
[07:41] <ddalton> so, this interfaces file would be fine for a ubuntu box? http://pastebin.com/f38fd3ac2
[07:42] <nickrud> ddalton that's a standard interfaces stuff
[07:42] <Blice> When booting from a livecd, if I'm at the grub promt, what's the kernel line?
[07:42] <RAdams> ok, workrave is pissed at me. might as well sleep before I have to click postpone again. ubunubi, good luck with that. I would recommend reading man cpio, that can be hairy, but it's rewarding when you get it to work :)
[07:43] <jjun> test
[07:43] <ubunubi> radams: thanks
[07:43] <jjun> hi
[07:43] <ddalton> nickrud: so that's no worries with ubuntu?
[07:43] <ddalton> sorry, i use debian just needing to work on a someone else box
[07:43] <Blice> Anyone?
[07:43] <nickrud> ddalton seriously, all the major infrastructure is identical. ubuntu is too smart to mess with basic networking
[07:44] <Frosty|Music> hey .. im new to linux, so bear with me .. how do i force boot into a kernel, bypassing the bootloader?
[07:44] <arooni> rae there can someone please tell me where to go to edit the 'quicksearch' listings for firefox?  these are things that when you type 'g {term}' it searches google for the term.
[07:44] <Frogzoo> Blice: "kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-19-generic root=UUID=8f249e8e-18a7-467b-860e-d8eb245fe03d "
[07:44] <ddalton> nickrud: ok, good. thanks.
[07:45]  * nickrud generally looks for debian docs for everything but the desktop, anyway
[07:45] <Flannel> arooni: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/smart-keywords.html
[07:45] <nickrud> Frogzoo did you do that from memory?
[07:46] <Frogzoo> nickrud: sure ;)
[07:47] <Blice> Frogzoo: What's with the root= part? Does that change for each disc?
[07:47] <Josdell> Hi everyone, can someone explain t me what the GRUB Error code 23: Problem Parsing number mean?
[07:47] <LetterRip> hi all any suggestions on automating wifi loading? current after startup i have to do = 'sudo modprobe ath_pci' and 'sudo ifconfig ath0 up'
[07:47] <Frosty|Music> how do i boot into another kernel through ssh console??
[07:47] <m1r> Ubuntu 8.04 alternate cd , i dont see OEM install on boot screen ?
[07:48] <bullgard4> [GNOME] What is the name of the program which will show the icons of all open programs on the current workspace in the middle of the screen, if you press Alt+Tab?
[07:48] <Frogzoo> Blice: use a device path ie  root=/dev/sda1
[07:48] <lachlan_> For a user to be able to create a file within a directory, do they need the 'write' permission only?
[07:49] <Blice> Frogzoo: What's the right device path for a liveCD though?
[07:49] <Frosty|Music> ...how do i change default kernel to RT kernel in ubuntu 8.04 64 bit??
[07:49] <nickrud> LetterRip I'm suprised the kernel isn't loading that module automatically, but you can put it in /etc/modules  on a line by itself, and it will be probed at boot. Make sure you have auto ath0 in /etc/network/interfaces, and it should come up automatically
[07:49] <JaRDinero> ..
[07:50] <LetterRip> nickrud, thanks
[07:50] <Frogzoo> Blice: ooh tricky
[07:50] <Josdell> Hi I installed Ubuntu on a USB Stick, but I can't find what the right partition I have to put as root is, can someone help me, I get an error 23, problem parsing number on USB boot
[07:51] <Flannel> m1r: Its either an f4 option or an f6 option.
[07:51] <m1r> Flannel: tnx, i check
[07:51] <benGoz> Can someone help me with Nvidia driver installation?
[07:51] <benGoz> I have a weird problem
[07:51] <Blice> Frogzoo: Very... With an 8.04 livecd, is there a way to see the current kernel line it's using?
[07:52] <Blice> So I can just edit that?
[07:52] <m1r> Flannel: yes , it has moved there :) tnx for help m8
[07:53] <Flannel> Frosty|Music: After installing the real time kernel, you have a few options, savedefault, removing generic, or changing default to 1 instead of 0 (real time will be listed after generic, assuming they always get updated at the same time, it'll always be second)
[07:54] <YourSoul> hallo
[07:54] <sandman> hi..i recently edited my fstab..now i cant access my partitions..and the places menu shows clones for each partition
[07:56] <JerKB> sandman: can you pastebin your /etc/fstab?
[07:57] <benGoz> I did a manual install of nvidia drivers because i couldn't get virtual consoles with nvidia-glx, or nvidia-glx-new, and it works great, but i have to reinstall it every time i reboot.
[07:58] <Frosty|Music> flannel, how do i change the default kernel index?  lilo.conf doesn't exist, and neither does /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:58] <Frosty|Music> (/etc/lilo.conf)
[07:58] <Flannel> Frosty|Music: /boot/grub/menu.lst does exist, or at least, assuming you're on Ubuntu
[07:59] <Frosty|Music> i assure you that it does not exist =)
[07:59] <Frosty|Music> its using lilo as bootloader
[07:59] <Frosty|Music> (this is on a virtual server from slicehost)
[07:59] <Flannel> Frosty|Music: Ah, Well, I have no idea how you'd do it with lilo.  I haven't used lilo in ages.
[07:59] <Frosty|Music> problem is i need to find lilo.conf
[07:59] <LetterRip> whoever made the suggestion - thanks it worked; adding ath_pci to modprobe made it work
[08:00] <aldin> hi, is there some OSS app that uses postfix log file and inserts in in to database - so i could manipulate with data querying?
[08:01] <benGoz> @Frosty, have you tried Places -> Search For Files... -> and search for lilo.conf in filesystem?
[08:01] <sandman> my fstab - http://pastebin.com/m392595d5
[08:01] <X3> hey Fryguy managed to install and boot both xp and ubuntu finally
[08:02] <X3> damm stoopid thing I bet windows was getting jealous
[08:02] <sandman> i had 3 fat entries which i deleted as they were resulting in clones...my mount point was /media
[08:02] <luchador> lol
[08:02] <Frosty|Music> i tried "find * lilo.conf
[08:02] <Frosty|Music> (this is all through SSH so no gui)
[08:03] <benGoz> oh...
[08:04] <benGoz> Maybe try locate lilo.conf
[08:04] <Frosty|Music> well ... lemme ask dif question then
[08:04] <Frosty|Music> do you know of any kernels that default to HZ higher than 50?
[08:04] <Frosty|Music> USER_HZ**
[08:05] <luchador> who here uses steam and ubunt
[08:05] <luchador> cmon someone
[08:05] <Frosty|Music> i'm trying to increase preemption from 50 hz to at least 200hz
[08:05] <Frosty|Music> luchador, i do
[08:05] <Garibaldi_nor> Hi there. I have installed swfdec-mozilla to view flash contect. But looks like firefox is in sirup when showing flash movies. Anyone knows why ?
[08:05] <luchador> do you play css?
[08:05] <Frosty|Music> yes
[08:05] <JerKB> sandman: have you unmounted/remounted since editing fstab?
[08:05] <luchador> k frost mind if i pm you
[08:05] <Frosty|Music> no
[08:05] <Frosty|Music> i dont mind
[08:05] <JerKB> you may want to sudo umount -a then sudo mount -a
[08:06] <sandman> yes i clicked the icons from places manu
[08:06] <sandman> *menu
[08:06] <bsusa> hello, is their a program for linux that you can use to restrict the amount of download and upload. For example i set a limit of 10MB and onces it reaches that it wont all me anymore.
