[00:00] <Kalmi> Guest48682, I don't know... sorry.. this might help you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1095406
[00:00] <Guest48682> thx 4 the attention
[00:00] <Kalmi> distatica, just remove windows
[00:00] <tm1> distatica: so basically, if I have an Ub account on my computer, and you have an Ub account on my computer... I can block your access to the internet... but if you reboot and load into my Windows account, you can access the internet. Is that what you're sayign? if it is ... that's what I want to do! :)
[00:01] <distatica> tm1: I should warn you to be careful with iptables, not that you will do any real damage (providing you're not ssh'ed into a box that's hundreds of miles away) but you can lock yourself out of your network stuff easily, and not have a connection to ask on IRC about
[00:01] <distatica> if that happens, then I believe it's sudo iptables -F
[00:01] <distatica> I think, that flushes it.
[00:01] <tm1> ok
[00:01] <mib_3fkg3rdb> Could there be any disadvantages to adding/removing partitions?  Could it destabilize my hard drive?  If I have an 80 GB dell, with the entire free space after Dell's stuff a 68.2 GB partition with Windows xp, then if I add a Linux partition, I would have to downsize the  XP partition, right?
[00:01] <Kalmi> distatica, tm1: iptable rules don't survive a reboot
[00:02] <distatica> Kalmi: good point, that too
[00:02] <dergringo> hi :) I want to create a sshfs entry in the fstab. But the point is on the remote system I use a certificate only login. Now the mount fails because it needs to be done by the correct user. Any hint how to do that?
[00:02] <gartral> Kalmi: it seems to be a VLC bug, Totem is responding fine
[00:02] <distatica> tm1: then yes, what you said above is true
[00:02] <distatica> if I rebooted into windows on your machine, the rules are out the door.
[00:02] <Kalmi> gartral, why do you prefer vlc?
[00:02] <tm1> distatica: gotcha, perfect :)
[00:03] <distatica> as long as you're talking your machine, and not a switch/router that blocks it somehow knowing that it's an ubuntu machine
[00:03] <gartral> Kalmi: eh, i don't, i prefer xmms2..
[00:03] <distatica> Any openvz people here?
[00:03] <distatica> actually, don't need that, linux-image is the actual compiled kernel right?
[00:04] <`Perremans> 'lo :)
[00:04] <kurt> nobody for my trembling sound on video playback?
[00:04] <distatica> headers is the stuff I need for compiling modules, and modules is.... ?
[00:04] <distatica> precompiled modules for something?
[00:04] <p`zza> can anyone tell me how to reinstall windows over a dual-boot system, WITHOUT touching grub or the current ubuntu install?
[00:05] <`Perremans> i have a problem with ext4... I deleted 18 gig, got a systemfreeze, did a restart, checked the files ( gone ) and have 1.8 free space...
[00:05] <panfist> i installed and was messing around with apache, but i screwed it up. can i revert all of its options to a fresh install state?
[00:05] <`Perremans> someone know how to fix the correct free space ?
[00:05] <distatica> panfist: I'm not sure, wait for another response first,but running aptitude purge apache2   might solve it.
[00:05] <bassliner> panfist: in case of doubt, you should ALWAYS have a backup
[00:05] <Rafao> boa noite galera
[00:05] <Kalmi> p`zza, you can't... Windows will mess up the mbr no matter what
[00:05] <danielrmt> p`zza: windows installer will screw grub, you have to fix it after you install window
[00:05] <Kalmi> !grub | p`zza
[00:06] <danielrmt> !english | Rafao
[00:06] <Kalmi> `Perremans, I think fsck should be able to fix...
[00:06] <Rafao> sorry
[00:06] <Rafao> bye
[00:07] <`Perremans> i'll try... tnx
[00:07] <Kalmi> `Perremans, you can'T run fsck on a mounted file system...
[00:07] <`Perremans> i saw it
[00:08] <Kalmi> `Perremans, so... if you have no other partition to boot from, you will need to use a livecd...
[00:08] <Base10K> hi all, ubuntu is detecting the signal strength of my wireless incorrectly so its setting the rate too high, i can set the rate using iwconfig but i want it to remember the rate i set when i reboot so i don't have to set it every time
[00:08] <`Perremans> i have a live cd
[00:08] <`Perremans> tnx
[00:08] <Kalmi> yw
[00:08] <`Perremans> is it normal that ext4 freeze from time to time ?
[00:09] <Kalmi> `Perremans, no... ext4 works fine for me...
[00:09] <`Perremans> i only have it when deleting or moving files bigger than 4,4 gb
[00:09] <p`zza> fsck! can anyone tell me is it at all possible to go from 9.04 to 8.04?
[00:09] <Kalmi> !downgrade | p`zza
[00:10] <Kalmi> p`zza, you could reinstall...
[00:10] <boss_mc> ha, I was busy typing that...
[00:10] <Kalmi> :)
[00:10] <veritos> Is it possible to install one of the side projects (say, Kubuntu) off an Ubuntu LiveCD?
[00:10] <gartral> Kalmi: still cant get play/pause working in a mediaplayer i *like*
[00:10] <balingup> Hi - i could use some help on ATI graphics, and screensavers locking up
[00:10] <veritos> Even if that requires doing something funky like modifying the Python source of the installer?
[00:10] <unop_> veritos, not the liveCD no, you'd need the alternate CD to do that
[00:10] <boss_mc> veritos: not really, you can install kubuntu-desktop on top of an ubuntu installation
[00:11] <Kalmi> gartral, sorry... i don't use the player you like...
[00:11] <xray7224> Veritatis, there is a stupidly long way of doing it but you might not wish to do it
[00:11] <veritos> xray7224: that was aimed at me?
[00:11] <Kruger> what would this line do
[00:11] <Kruger> export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware"
[00:11] <gartral> Kalmi: i use Amarok, Exial, Xmms2 (through console and GUI clients) and VLC
[00:11] <balingup> Boss-MS Hi, got it working yesterday, thanks - still a prob or 2
[00:12] <VCoolio> with the 'cat' command, how would I configure it to show only the part of the file between the words 'section1' and 'endsection1'
[00:12] <xray7224> erm i dont know it was aimed at the person wanting to install kubuntu from ubuntu live cd
[00:12] <unop_> Kruger, declare an environmental variable named FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR and mark it for exporting
[00:12] <Kalmi> `Perremans, I have no problem moving huge files...
[00:12] <Kruger> what does this mean export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware"?
[00:12] <xray7224> and i said yes you can its jsut a stupidly long way of doing it
[00:12] <Jordan_U> Kruger: It sets and eports that variable, what that variable does depends on what command(s) you run next
[00:13] <Kruger> k
[00:13] <unop_> VCoolio, cat can't do that, sed and awk can tho
[00:13] <gartral> Kalmi: I also have Xine, Gxine, rythumbox, movie plyer, totem, Miro, Dragon, and FFmpeg installed
[00:13] <balingup> Hello BOSS MC - back on track now!
[00:13] <p`zza> How do you get Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Xubuntu all on one install CD?
[00:13] <boss_mc> balingup: are you jezza?
[00:13] <GraphicRecursio2> how do I perminantly add a module so it stays after boot up
[00:14] <GraphicRecursio2> modprobe seems to loose effect after reboot
[00:14] <VCoolio> unop_: right, will look into that or can u easily come up with the right sequence?
[00:14] <th0r> GraphicRecursio2: add it to /etc/modules
[00:14] <gordonjcp> GraphicRecursio2: /etc/modprobe.d/
[00:14] <gordonjcp> no
[00:14] <koshari1> p`zza you wouldnt, the amount of packages would be to big for a cd
[00:14] <Kalmi> p`zza, you can install the kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop package after installing ubuntu
[00:14] <josh_> I have an addon soundcard in addition to the onboard sound. Even though the onboard sound is disabled, ubunto's alsa config keeps picking it up as if it were active. How can I keep alsa from loading the drivers for the onboard chip?
[00:14] <gordonjcp> GraphicRecursio2: /etc/modules
[00:14] <balingup> Argh, yes - this is my real id
[00:14] <boss_mc> GraphicRecursio2: add it to /etc/modules
[00:14] <unop_> VCoolio, I would ask in #sed and #awk
[00:14] <GraphicRecursio2> thank ye gents
[00:14] <VCoolio> unop_: k, thx
[00:15] <boss_mc> balingup: so you got the drivers installed?
[00:15] <balingup> BOSS - MC  - yes Its me with ATI driver
[00:15] <samd> is it safe to run ubuntu with no swap, on a 2 gig ram box???
[00:15] <bulldog_> i'd say so
[00:15] <koshari1> josh_ blacklist the module its using
[00:15] <romulo> im swiming in the xcht
[00:15] <Kalmi> gartral, worksforme in rhytmbox
[00:15] <boss_mc> samd: yes, I'm running on a 512Mb eee with no swap fine
[00:15] <balingup> BOSS MC - yes and back on track- not to smooth - flickers when scrolling etc
[00:15] <vlady> mencoder has a interface?
[00:16] <unop_> samd, it doesn't hurt to have some swap available for when you need it .. especially given the abundance of diskspace nowadays
[00:16] <samd> boss_mc, oh, ight thanks
[00:16] <burvowski> is it bad if i open up my xorg.conf and don't see a "Section "Module""?
[00:16] <boss_mc> balingup: that's a driver issue, just wait a month for the next one to come along and break your system ;-)
[00:16] <Jordan_U> burvowski: No, thats fine
[00:17] <samd> unop_, im just bought a solid state drive, and people say that its better to reduce writes so the disk last longer, some people suggest no swap, but i really dont know
[00:17] <bernz> burvowski, it might be okay; X config files can be very minimal... probably best to just find the manual/docs for the config file and check to be sure
[00:17] <Jordan_U> burvowski: Xorg doeas so much automatically now that the default xorg.conf is basically the same as having none at all
[00:17] <boss_mc> burvowski: most bits of Xorg.conf can be skipped (actually I think it's unnecessary except for special settings)
[00:17] <burvowski> Jordan_U ok, i'm trying to fix flickering in conky and it told me to add load "dbe" under that section, so I was wondering if it was ok to add that section myself
[00:17] <boss_mc> burvowski: X guesses what you need anyway
[00:17] <Jordan_U> burvowski: Yes, it is
[00:17] <boss_mc> burvowski: yeah
[00:17] <bernz> burvowski, for instance, i use xorg.conf to disable my notebook's touchpad "touch to click" feature (cuz i hate it)
[00:18] <balingup> BOSS-MC plus after 5 - 10 mins of screensaver, the screen goes blank and will not revive / wakeup and i have to pull the plug. do you reckon the open source driver would be better?
[00:18] <burvowski> ok thanks for the help guys
[00:18] <Kalmi> samd, ubuntu is not going to use the swap till otherwise bad thing would happen
[00:18] <bernz> burvowski, you might find it useful to Web search for "xorg.conf" plus "dbe"
[00:18] <burvowski> it's weird, conky it's just flickering, but slightly moving from side to side when it flickers
[00:18] <boss_mc> balingup: the OS drivers only really work for 2D acceleration...
[00:18] <Jordan_U> balingup: In general the open source ATI drivers are more stable but slower ( also the open source drivers tend to suspend / resume better )
[00:19] <samd> Kalmi,  ight, so you recommend to go without a swap partition ??
[00:19] <Kalmi> samd, I recommend that you have one
[00:19] <boss_mc> samd: if you've got HD to spare it's a good idea to have one...
[00:20] <balingup> Boss_MC ok, so you reckon I cant tweak or confingure it etc, just wait...?
[00:20] <bernz> burvowski, you might need special timing settings too, if you have a monitor with funky resolution (i had to get the '915resolution' patch/hack for my notebook)
[00:20] <Kalmi> samd, it will only get used if you run out of memory
[00:20] <boss_mc> balingup: That's probably the power saving mode causing it to lock up, just disable 'turn off monitor after X mins'
[00:20] <balingup> Boss MC - ok thanks
[00:20] <burvowski> bernz where can i find out more about this patch/hack? my monitor is 1024 x 600 (a netbook)
[00:20] <samd> boss_mc, Kalmi , ight, ill make the partition, as you guys say , it wont be used that much, so my ssd wont wear out that much because of swap usage
[00:20] <boss_mc> balingup: then wait...
[00:21] <Kalmi> samd, good read: http://www.storagesearch.com/ssdmyths-endurance.html
[00:21] <boss_mc> samd: ah, you're using ssd... you might not wnat one then...
[00:21] <Jordan_U> burvowski: I don't think that 915resolution is needed / usefull with the current drivers
[00:21] <bernz> burvowski, well, the '915resolution' utility is specifically for intel 945-type integrated video for notebooks, but there might be something similar for your netbook
[00:21] <samd> boss_mc, Kalmi  , what about making a swap with a low swapiness setting?
[00:21] <NeoTubNinja> is gfxboot pretty effortless to install and use compared to grub?
[00:21] <balingup> Boss MC - Will do - thanks for your help!!  :)
[00:21] <bernz> burvowski, you might not need any extra program, but you might have to tell xorg.conf to use that specific resolution
[00:21] <samd> Kalmi, ight, thanks for the link, ima take a look at it
[00:22] <burvowski> bernz interesting. i'll look into this, thanks
[00:22] <bernz> burvowski, if you find it education, i can pastebin my xorg.conf for you to examine
[00:22] <bernz> -education +educationl
[00:22] <burvowski> bernz sure, i'd take a look
[00:22] <bernz> k, one sec
[00:23] <boss_mc> samd: I'm looking for the page about that now...
[00:23] <phunkyskunk> how do i set up static ip address so i can port forward transmission
[00:23] <samd> boss_mc, thanks , i apreciate your help
[00:24] <boss_mc> samd: can't remember where I saw it, it's a selection of tweaks for eeepc's running ubuntu
[00:24] <TheNovice> HELP!!
[00:24] <samd> boss_mc, ight, ill search for it ,dont worry,, eeepc tweaks

[00:25] <TheNovice> !acer
[00:25] <phunkyskunk> yeah
[00:25] <TheNovice> how to get help setting up hibernation??
[00:25] <boss_mc> phunkyskunk: do you have access to it's settings?
[00:25] <th0r> TheNovice: would seriously suggest you forego hibernation and suspend
[00:25] <bernz> burvowski, http://pastebin.ca/1433388 -- i've added a comment showing where you could put your dbe-related stuff
[00:25] <phunkyskunk> yes. its a linksys with ddwrt on it
[00:26] <boss_mc> phunkyskunk: mmm, delicious
[00:26] <boss_mc> phunkyskunk: just set your network interface to a static address that's not in the router's DCHP range
[00:26] <bernz> burvowski, it will also show you how you might apply other advanced settings; gimme another second, and i'll paste the one from my notebook; i put my mediabox one on the first pastebin
[00:27] <juniecho> hi, is there any way i can use GNOME-DO with language other than english?
[00:27] <phunkyskunk> i just switched to ubuntu recently and transmission was working fine without port forwarding now for some reason the ports are blocked
[00:27] <boss_mc> phunkyskunk: then in the wrt-dd port forwarding page set up the port from port blah (router) to port blah on your box
[00:27] <Kalmi> phunkyskunk, couldn't you just enable upnp on the router?
[00:28] <boss_mc> Kalmi: does transmission use upnp?
[00:28] <soulwarp> I have a question about the session switcher. I install Enlightenment and i can't switch to that windows manager through the login screen.
[00:28] <TheNovice> HELP!! sound doesnt work
[00:28] <phunkyskunk> it is enabled but it doesnt seem to be working
[00:28] <Kalmi> boss_mc, yes
[00:28] <boss_mc> !sound | TheNovice
[00:28] <bernz> burvowski, http://pastebin.ca/1433389 -- this is the one from my notebook (you probably don't need the other one; it's less "exciting") :-)
[00:28] <boss_mc> Kalmi: huh, better than I thought then (although deluge is still the best!)
[00:28] <e-vad> does anyone know of a good xdmcp how-to, preferably something with screenshots?
[00:29] <Kalmi> boss_mc, deluge rocks... :D
[00:29] <phunkyskunk> so deluge is better than transmission??
[00:29] <TheNovice> how to install windows fonts?
[00:29] <boss_mc> !medibuntu | TheNovice
[00:29] <phunkyskunk> would you recommend me install that rather than use transmission
[00:30] <Kalmi> !fonts | TheNovice
[00:30] <Kalmi> phunkyskunk, Transmission is ok imho
[00:30] <boss_mc> phunkyskunk: it's your call, install it, try it and decide for your self
[00:30] <coz_> e-vad,  there is this but no screenshots  http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/index.html
[00:30] <phunkyskunk> is deluge more like utorrent
[00:31] <boss_mc> phunkyskunk: more like azureus in my mind (less info on screen, and it's not java...)
[00:31] <e-vad> coz_: yeah, that one was less than useful, which is why i asked the other way around
[00:31] <TheNovice> im sick to type password for sudo, how to avoid that?
[00:31] <soulwarp> I have a question about the session switcher option at the login screen. I installed enlightenment and i can't switch to that windows manager through the login screen via session switcher.
[00:31] <Zelfje> TheNovice: sudo su
[00:31] <coz_> e-vad,  ok  well I found a wikipedia page and man y references online
[00:31] <Kalmi> TheNovice, or sudo -s
[00:31] <phunkyskunk> ok. i may give it a try. in transmission now its saying my port is open when i test it. it was saying closed earlier
[00:32] <TheNovice> oh lol
[00:32] <TheNovice> that simply stupid me
[00:32] <boss_mc> TheNovice: be careful though, as root you can do damage to your system that may be hard to put right
[00:32] <e-vad> coz_: indeed... i'd have not asked on irc w/o searching on my own really. i'll keep poking, and if anyone knows about xdmcp on 9.04, pipe up
[00:32] <coz_> e-vad,   yeah that may be the best   let me keep looking for a minute
[00:32] <phunkyskunk> and i didnt change anything
[00:33] <elvis_> usb_control_msg error -1
[00:33] <TheNovice> how to install flash player?
[00:33] <boss_mc> phunkyskunk: your router may have done weird things with upnp, they do that every so often...
[00:33] <boss_mc> !flash | TheNovice
[00:33] <bernz> i don't want to start any arguments, i'm just sort of trying to get a sense of the typi
[00:34] <VSpike> How can I check that a CD of ubuntu is OK? It won't boot on the target machine.
[00:34] <e-vad> coz_: it seems i've done the server bit right, and the client 'looks' like it's connecting
[00:34] <VSpike> I checked the MD5 of the .iso file and it's OK
[00:34] <soulwarp> If anyone has any idea how to switch to a custom window manager, and can help me, i will be very happy. :)
[00:34] <boss_mc> VSpike: if you can boot it on any machine you can run a checkdisc from the menu
[00:34] <e-vad> just never gets me as far as a login screen
[00:34] <phunkyskunk> should it show up under the upnp in the router interface if transmission is using UPnP
[00:34] <VSpike> boss_mc: I didn't want to reboot any of the other machines I have if possible ;)
[00:34] <coz_> e-vad,    http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3089403.msg135907#msg135907     no screenshots but maybe
[00:35] <boss_mc> VSpike: otherwise if you can see the files in nautilus you can do the md5sum check yourself
[00:35] <Kalmi> soulwarp, which wm?
[00:35] <bernz> collecting opinions to help me understand how best to configure my Ubuntu mediabox: for people who compile and install "3rd-party" libraries, apps, etc from source, do you place all such source in a common directory in your FS, and if so where, and if not, what do you do? please msg me your responses, i don't want to cause a flood :-)
[00:35] <ozzmosis> VSpike: you can rerip the CD you just burnt
[00:36] <ozzmosis> VSpike: the ripped ISO should match the MD5sum of the ISO

[00:38] <RHorse> soulwarp why not stop the current  WM and then  starrt E16?
[00:38] <kbp> is there any command that helps to copy files from server to local pc via SSH !?

[00:40] <soulwarp> RHorse: Kalmi: trying those options brb
[00:40] <boss_mc> vlady: I use the manual install method, works nicely...
[00:40] <VSpike> kbp: I think in nautilus you can do sftp://host/path and it should open it for you via ssh
[00:41] <cchen> anybody?
[00:41] <bernz> harujai, yes, i've upgraded to jaunty recently, with no ill effects, except maybe one minor one
[00:41] <Kalmi> soulwarp, just run that, don't do anything else
[00:41] <vlady> what version do you have?
[00:41] <bernz> harujai, the taskbar on the bottom is covered with a grid of black pixels, effectively "ghosting" all but the active task tab
[00:41] <Guest86320> guys how do i get evolution to stop asking for the keyring password, yet still memorize my password?
[00:41] <boss_mc> vlady: was that addressed to me?
[00:42] <harujai> bernz: Would you have any idea why fglrxinfo is giving me a segmentation fault? other than the phase of the moon of course
[00:42] <bernz> harujai, every so often, there is a vertical white line, where no shadow falls; it coincides with nothing on-screen, and is regularly spaced
[00:42] <meoblast001> hi
[00:42] <rekoob> i upgraded to jaunty and movie player was working but now its not working. am i going to have to re install everything?
[00:42] <meoblast001> i can't remember the CLI command for bluetooth
[00:42] <meoblast001> what is it?
[00:42] <meoblast001> i need to <command> -c / -g FILE
[00:42] <vlady> envyng?
[00:42] <meoblast001> i just can't remember what <command> is
[00:42] <VSpike> ozzmosis / boss_mc : I suddenly realised that "sudo md5sum /dev/cdrom" would work too
[00:43] <vlady> iĺl install it rigth now!
[00:43] <bernz> harujai, no; i just ran it, and it printed a few lines of info, no indication of error; was your fglrxinfo working before jaunty (assuming you upgraded also)?
[00:43] <VSpike> ozzmosis / boss_mc : just in case anyone else asks the same thing :)
[00:43] <kbp> VSpike, sorry for a nub question (Im new to ubuntu) but does Nautilus mean terminal?
[00:43] <boss_mc> VSpike: does the CD have the md5sums on it?
[00:43] <thoku> meoblash001: is it bluetooth-sendto ?
[00:43] <boss_mc> kbp: nautilus is the fileexplorer
[00:44] <harujai> bernz:  That's a complicated answer, since upgrading to jaunty there have been new ati drivers released
[00:44] <thoku> meoblash001: its wrong, my bad.
[00:44] <VSpike> boss_mc: yeah, but I'm concerned about it booting so I wanted to check the boot sector (or whatever the CD equivalent is) which would not be covered by the file sums
[00:44] <Kalmi> cchen, why?
[00:44] <kbp> ook thanx ^^
[00:44] <harujai> bernz:  for the most part it was working before jaunty though i couldnt independently set screen resolutions. 9.4 catalyst drivers were very glitchy on jaunty and i'm trying to get the 9.5 drivers working now
[00:44] <foolhardy> Howdy people. Can I ask where the best place to ask 'RAID5 / mdadm' questions are? Can someone suggest a channel?
[00:44] <boss_mc> VSpike: do CD's even have the same bootsect thing that HD's do?
[00:45] <sagaci> !nautilus
[00:45] <bernz> harujai, ahh, that might be it -- since the ATI drivers are not "official", they wouldn't have been upgraded with jaunty; since they were working before, they probably have stayed working
[00:45] <VSpike> boss_mc: I'm not sure!
[00:45] <soulwarp> !pastebin | soulwarp
[00:45] <cchen> Kalmi: thanks for reply.  wondering by using aptitude install python2.5 will changes anything that the default python2.6 used in jaunty.
[00:45] <ozzmosis> boss_mc: they have a bootsector yes .. just not a partition table
[00:45] <ramael> hello all :3
[00:45] <VSpike> boss_mc: even so, the command I gave returns the same md5sum as the .iso file
[00:45] <bernz> harujai, FWIW, i had some problems installing the catalyst utility at first, but i can't remember what the problem was, nor the solution; only that it works now
[00:45] <thoku> foolhardy: could try #debian or #gentoo for more server related people
[00:45] <thoku> foolhardy: whats the issue?
[00:45] <boss_mc> VSpike: sounds like it should work...
[00:46] <foolhardy> the issue is that a 'removed' drive doesnt seem to allow me to 're-add' it
[00:46] <harujai> bernz:  Didn't jaunty change to a new xserver version? or did i misread something
[00:46] <bernz> harujai, but... at least, it's notable that the drivers worked without catalyst, though maybe i had to tweak my xorg.conf a bit
[00:46] <cchen> Kalmi: i know that the symbol link is /usr/bin/python still points at python2.6 but are there any lib.so files that will be overwritten?
[00:46] <thoku> foolhardy: are you adding it as a spare?
[00:46] <boss_mc> harujai: yes, jaunty uses X1.6 so only catalyst 9.5 will work with it at the moment
[00:46] <rekoob> anyone have any ideas how i can get my movie player to work again?
[00:46] <cchen> Kalmi: the purpose is not to compile with python2.6 but to allow packages that use python2.5 to be able to run.
[00:47] <Guest86320> guys how do i get evolution to stop asking for the keyring password, yet still memorize my password?
[00:47] <bernz> harujai, perhaps, but i suspect that it's sufficiently "separate" from the ATI drivers to allow a swap of xserver without changing drivers... i have no idea, though, that's just a guess
[00:47] <Kalmi> cchen, i think they should be able to live happily side-by-side..
[00:47] <Kalmi> cchen, why wouldn't they?
[00:47] <harujai> bernz: at this point i'd like to get something working. I tried envng yesterday and it installed the 8.600 drivers which was problematic
[00:47] <Dante123> Anyone try running Ubuntu Remix under virtualbox?
[00:47] <harujai> boss_mc: Ah i thought so. Thanks.
[00:47] <boss_mc> harujai: have you looked at http://cchtml.com?
[00:48] <gordonjcp> Dante123: it dies on its backside under qemu, I can tell you that
[00:48] <harujai> boss_mc:  yes. Following those instructions three times yesterday i wound up with 3 different errors on 3 fresh installs of jaunty
[00:48] <boss_mc> harujai: I used to follow the manual installation instructions (they got balinghup's ati card working last night!)
[00:48] <Patrique> hi i'm trying to install fuppes and i think i have all the dependencies but when i run autoreconf - vfi i get an error
[00:48] <harujai> boss_mc: It seems to have finally settled on the segmentation error
[00:48] <cchen> kalmi: does python2.5 package store in a separate directory than python2.6?  do they share any same symbolic links in /usr/lib or /usr/share?  that was my concern.
[00:48] <Patrique> error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LIB_RPATH
[00:48] <bernz> harujai, sorry, i can't be of much help, because i had so few problems :-/  good luck
[00:49] <Dante123> gordonjcp well i have followed instruction of people that claim to have made it work, but I am getting this weird green screen and it never gets past that
[00:49] <harujai> bernz: Np, thanks for trying anyway
[00:49] <rekoob> should i be asking movie player questions in a different room?
[00:49] <libtech> no
[00:49] <libtech> aks
[00:49] <Dante123> starts okay, but when you go to install screen stays green...also some message about 16bit vs. 32 bit display
[00:49] <gartral> I can't get the multimedia buttons to work right in some applications
[00:49] <boss_mc> rekoob: no, it's a good question, just people aren't able to help...
[00:49] <soulwarp> rekoob: ask away
[00:49] <boss_mc> rekoob: maybe someone who can will rock up, like soulwarp!
[00:50] <harujai> boss_mc: when you did the manual install did you you install the 3 .deb packages specifically listed or did you install all 6 created when you did --buildpkg ?
[00:50] <VCoolio> Guest86320: have you by any chance set your login to go automatically (without entering password)? In that case evolution can't reach the passwords file.
[00:50] <Drave> Is anyone familier with getting .net framework apps working in jaunty? I've already gotten wine/winetricks/the framework itself installed, is there something else I'm missing or doing wrong?
[00:50] <rekoob> something happened and it starts to open then just closes.
[00:50] <Patrique> hi i'm trying to install fuppes and i think i have all the dependencies but when i run autoreconf - vfi i get an error configure:20970: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LIB_RPATH
[00:50] <soulwarp> rekoob: what is the name of the player
[00:50] <boss_mc> harujai: I didn't install the -dev package, I installed all the others
[00:50] <Patrique>  oop sorry
[00:50] <rekoob> its movie player
[00:51] <boss_mc> soulwarp, rekoob: so it's totem
[00:51] <ozzmosis> rekoob: that's probably Totem
[00:51] <harujai> boss_mc: Last one i think, is synaptic the best way to uninstall the packages or is there a cleaner way
[00:51] <rekoob> yes, thats the one.
[00:51] <Kalmi> The Movie Player!
[00:51] <boss_mc> harujai: I use dpkg to install/remove local packages and apt for repository packages
[00:51] <soulwarp> rekoob: open your terminal and type totem
[00:52] <harujai> boss_mc: I see. Thanks.
[00:52] <boss_mc> harujai: but they are basically equivalent
[00:52] <kenyon> harujai: synaptic is good, yes
[00:52] <soulwarp> rekoob: copy and paste the error here. if the error is too long please use pastebin
[00:52] <rekoob> it opens fine.
[00:52] <phunkyskunk> how do i install the new video card drivers. card i have is ati x600
[00:52] <soulwarp> !pastebin | rekoob
[00:52] <rekoob> but when i try to open a file it closes
[00:53] <boss_mc> rekoob: open a terminal, type totem, press enter and pastebin us the output after it crashes
[00:53] <libtech> is there a way to access itunes daap shares?
[00:53] <RHorse> rekoob, do what soulwarp said and copy the terminal output to pastebin
[00:53] <boss_mc> harujai: you might try purging them
[00:53] <boss_mc> RHorse: rhythmbox can do it
[00:53] <fbc-mx> Can any wireless device be a MASTER(Access point) on Ubuntu?
[00:53] <gartral> I can't get the multimedia buttons to work right in some applications...
[00:54] <libtech> boss_mc: you mean me?
[00:54] <boss_mc> libtech: yes, misread the name....
[00:54] <rekoob> http://paste.ubuntu.com/179930/
[00:54] <rekoob> is that how i do it?
[00:54] <harujai> boss_mc: I'm new, how would i do that? -p?
[00:54] <smith> hi I just upgraded to jaunty 9.04 and the sound doesnt work in amarok or on the net
[00:55] <boss_mc> harujai: dpkg --purge <package names>
[00:55] <smith> also pandora and other flash sites dont work even though I had just fixed the problem on 8.04 last week
[00:55] <boss_mc> !sound | smith
[00:55] <koshari1> smith amarok 1.4 or 2?
[00:55] <smith> 2
[00:55] <harujai> boss_mc: Roger. For future reference what's the difference between purge and remove
[00:55] <Patrique> hi i'm trying to install fuppes and i think i have all the dependencies but when i run autoreconf - vfi i get this error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LIB_RPATH, AC_LIB_LINKFLAGS_BODY, AC_LIB_APPENDTOVAR what should i do?
[00:55] <koshari1> smith: you will need phonon stuff
[00:56] <boss_mc> harujai: purge removes config files as well as the binaries
[00:56] <koshari1> smith unless you UPGRADE to 1.4
[00:56] <gartral> I can't get the multimedia buttons to work right in some applications...
[00:56] <smith> even if i do that then my flash wont work still
[00:57] <Kalmi> gartral, I assume it works for you too in Rhythmbox...
[00:57] <soulwarp> rekoob: it seems to be a common bug with the program, there is already a bug report filed here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/357824
[00:57] <ramael> does anyone know how to know the IP ?? :)
[00:58] <logankoester> ifconfig ramael
[00:58] <boss_mc> rekoob: you might look at vlc for a movie player for now (until the bug's fixed)
[00:58] <ramael> ifconfig works, but gives me my local IP, I need my external IP :)
[00:58] <boss_mc> ramael: whatsmyip.com
[00:58] <kenyon> ramael: http://showip.net/
[00:58] <gartral> Kalmi: yes, rythmbox, Exial, and Totem all work, but VLX, xmms2 and dragon dont
[00:58] <rekoob> okay, i thought i found that but will look this over
[00:58] <meoblast001> how does one kill a window in Screen
[00:58] <rekoob> thanks soulwarp.
[00:58] <meoblast001> the documentation says Control+A+K but that did nothing
[00:58] <Kalmi> gartral, you might be better off filing bugs against them...
[00:58] <ozzmosis> meoblast001: Ctrl+A K
[00:59] <meoblast001> ozzmosis: i did that and nothing happened
[00:59] <logankoester> Hit ctrl+a (release) then hit K
[00:59] <ozzmosis> meoblast001: uppercase K?
[00:59] <meoblast001> logankoester: ha.. that does nothing either
[00:59] <meoblast001> ozzmosis: i don't have an upcase K key
[00:59] <soulwarp> rekoob: you're welcome
[00:59] <ozzmosis> meoblast001: you... do
[00:59] <logankoester> you just used it!
[00:59] <rekoob> dang, i missed that... is someone saying vlc is a better player?
[00:59] <ramael> okie, thanks... its that all I need in order to let other people to connect to me (me and some friends want to play openarena)
[00:59] <ramael> or do I need to disable my firewall?
[00:59] <TheNovice> vlc is good
[00:59] <meoblast001> ozzmosis: wouldn't that just be Control+A+Shift+K?
[00:59] <ring1> mplayer is better ;)
[00:59] <ozzmosis> meoblast001: indeed
[00:59] <boss_mc> rekoob: I prefer it to totem...
[01:00] <boss_mc> ring1: mplayer is good too
[01:00] <Kalmi> WMP is the best! :D
[01:00] <boss_mc> !kb Kalmi
[01:00] <TheNovice> !sound
[01:00] <boss_mc> dang!
[01:00] <soulwarp> rekoob: i use vlc, as far as it being better than other players is a matter of preference
[01:00] <Kalmi> !botabuse | boss_mc
[01:00] <boss_mc> soulwarp: have they fixed the seperate video window problem?
[01:00] <rekoob> cool, if i get one working i will try them both.
[01:01] <boss_mc> thanks Kalmi
[01:01] <erichammond_> What is the name of the file system which allows you to "layer" on top of an existing read-only file system?  New and modified files can be stored on a different device with transparent fall-through to the underlying fs.
[01:01] <boss_mc> twas a joke
[01:01] <meoblast001> in IRSSI, how do i join a new server without quiting the current?
[01:01] <boss_mc> erichammond_: squashfs?
[01:01] <ozzmosis> erichammond_: sounds like snapshots
[01:01] <soulwarp> boss_mc: i didn't know about a problem with vlc
[01:01] <boss_mc> erichammond_: aufs?
[01:01] <kenyon> meoblast001: /connect
[01:01] <Kalmi> yw :) (I know)
[01:01] <meoblast001> kenyon: ok... thanks
[01:01] <boss_mc> soulwarp: can you have the video inside the main app window (on jaunty)?
[01:02] <RHorse> meoblast001 in bitchx  it's /window server  ...
[01:02] <thiebaude> hi b
[01:02] <Kalmi> !hi | thiebaude
[01:02] <b> thiebaude: changed name by mistake
[01:02] <thiebaude> wassup Kalmi
[01:02] <RHorse> in a fresh window
[01:02] <boss_mc> soulwarp: I'm using a ppa version at the moment want to know if it's safe to switch back to repo
[01:02] <thiebaude> haha
[01:02] <thiebaude> seb
[01:03] <soulwarp> boss_mc: to be honest i haven't used vlc since i upgraded heh
[01:03] <unop_> erichammond_, unionfs ?
[01:03] <thiebaude> thanks for welcoming me, but i've been here 4 yrs
[01:03] <meoblast001> how do i connect to a second server in IRSSI without quiting the current one?
[01:03] <TheNovice> Help i dont have sound, but i have alsa, what is wrong?? http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=db56af8b3547a9ee0981f4d81cade8f77547a53d
[01:04] <ozzmosis> meoblast001: /connect
[01:04] <Kalmi> thiebaude, yw :)
[01:04] <boss_mc> TheNovice: are you on jaunty?
[01:04] <meoblast001> someone except for ozzmosis
[01:04] <kenyon> meoblast001: /connect
[01:04] <TheNovice> boss_mc: yes
[01:04] <meoblast001> or kenyon
[01:04] <RHorse> meoblast001 /window new server ...
[01:04] <meoblast001> RHorse: ok
[01:04] <meoblast001> RHorse: that didn't work
[01:04] <boss_mc> have you removed pulseaudio (I'm not suggesting it, I'm just asking)
[01:04] <kenyon> why does it matter who it comes from?
[01:04] <ozzmosis> kenyon: we're not worthy
[01:04] <RHorse> meoblast001 /window new server hide
[01:04] <meoblast001> kenyon: because i just did /connect and it doesn't work
[01:04] <TheNovice> boss_mc: how to remove it?
[01:04] <kenyon> ozzmosis: apparently.
[01:05] <ozzmosis> meoblast001: you're doing it wrong.
[01:05] <meoblast001> kenyon: it brings up a new server but doesn't really let me do anything with it as it still says Freenode when i connect to it
[01:05] <RHorse> meoblast001 first /window new hide
[01:05] <ozzmosis> meoblast001: /help connect
[01:05] <boss_mc> TheNovice: I'm not suggesting you remove it, I was making sure you hadn't
[01:05] <kenyon> meoblast001: press ctrl-x to switch to it maybe?
[01:05] <TUplink> i have put a nfs entrie in /etc/fstab    mount /media/Shares    mounts it but why wont it mount on startup?
[01:05] <RHorse> meoblast001 then go to the  new window and type  /window server [server]
[01:05] <boss_mc> TheNovice: install paman (sudo aptitude install paman)
[01:05] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: that's better
[01:05] <TheNovice> boss_mc: yes its installed, im removing
[01:05] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: and this isan't a chat channel by the way
[01:05] <rekoob> okay, so it looks like the fix for Totem is to change my video driver.  now how can I do that?
[01:05] <meoblast001> RHorse: do they sell mouses at Dollar General?
[01:05] <soulwarp> removing?!
[01:06] <meoblast001> or mice
[01:06] <boss_mc> he's gone mad
[01:06] <erichammond_> boss_mc, ozzmosis, unop_: aufs looks like what I was thinking of.  unionfs sounds like the same thing but older. Thanks.
[01:06] <jimisrvrox_> hey guys having issues with this broadcom 4318 wireless nic and have tried some guides and am stuck on extracting the .sys file I would appreciate some assistance when possible..
[01:06] <boss_mc> TheNovice: the easiest, most supported setup is to stay with pulseaudio, install paman and use that to work out your issues...
[01:06] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: Have you tried System > Administration ? Hardware Drivers?
[01:06] <RHorse> meoblast001 it's not that hard, you'll  figger it out eventually...
[01:06] <r0bby> meoblast001: http://irssi.org
[01:07] <r0bby> next time you have questions about irssi; google also has resources up the wazoo :)
[01:07] <soulwarp> rekoob: gksu /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:07] <soulwarp> rekoob: a word of warning, any changes to this file may have bad effects to your gui
[01:08] <boss_mc> soulwarp: that does nothing
[01:08] <meoblast001> r0bby: that link won't work
[01:08] <meoblast001> r0bby: i'm using a CLI
[01:08] <lupita> ciao
[01:08] <meoblast001> how do i scroll up in IRSSI?
[01:08] <boss_mc> rekoob: gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:08] <Jordan_U> meoblast001: page up
[01:08] <gartral> meoblast001: `pgup
[01:08] <r0bby> meoblast001: so?
[01:08] <meoblast001> ok thanks
[01:08]  * RHorse sighs
[01:09] <thansom> how do I switch to bleeding edge?
[01:09] <soulwarp> boss_mc: woops forgot gedit
[01:09] <meoblast001> r0bby: i don't feel like opening Elinks right now
[01:09] <meoblast001> i'd love to be working on code but i can't get on my IRC network to discuss important things with my other programmers
[01:10] <r0bby> meoblast001: you do realize you just basically hosed yourself, stating "I don't care, but maybe you do!"
[01:10] <meoblast001> what?
[01:10] <boss_mc> thansom: do you mean karmic?
[01:10] <thansom> huh???
[01:10] <r0bby> meoblast001: 1) quit irssi 2) type "screen irssi"
[01:10] <thansom> I guess so
[01:10] <rekoob> so what do I change in there?
[01:10] <boss_mc> thansom: Karmic is Jaunty+1
[01:10] <meoblast001> r0bby: a screen inside a screen?
[01:10] <Kalmiii> !karmic
[01:10] <thiebaude> !uds
[01:10] <r0bby> have you ever used screen?
[01:11] <thoku> thansom: As in proposed updates or the latest release of ubuntu?
[01:11] <meoblast001> r0bby: i'm using it now... i've used it on my server
[01:11] <meoblast001> r0bby: when you don't use it you lose it
[01:11] <alesan> hey how do I empty the routing table from the command line?
[01:11] <meoblast001> and  i don't use it often
[01:11] <r0bby> okay, then get a new window :)
[01:11] <Jordan_U> meoblast001: If irssi is already running in a screen session then you are fine
[01:11] <r0bby> get a new window, open links (I just checked, irssi.org looks VERY good in it.)
[01:12] <Kalmiii> alesan, I'm also interested in empting the routing table from the command line...
[01:12] <meoblast001> ugh
[01:12] <alesan> Kalmiii, especially with a command that doesn't require knowing what is the default gw
[01:13] <TheNovice> boss_mc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PulseAudio  << LOL
[01:13] <ncfi1013> how does one burn an iso with these file names and extensions: VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB? i know how to burn an iso if it is an image, but not if it downloaded with those filenames and extensions. can someone please help me?
[01:13] <harujai> boss_mc: Is "Xlib:  extension "ATIFGLRXDRI" missing on display ":0.0". " really so vague an error that it could be the phase of the moon?
[01:13] <boss_mc> TheNovice: ha!
[01:14] <Kalmiii> alesan, yes... I had once writting a dumb script that removed what i needed removed... but that wa quite far from a general solution...
[01:14] <ozzmosis> ncfi1013: those are DVD Video files
[01:14] <harrisony> Is there a way i can (via command line) print to a printer with out having to add it
[01:14] <TheNovice> boss_mc: no joy, sound still missing :(
[01:14] <boss_mc> harujai: my experience with the fglrx drivers is that no error was specific enough to no be affected by the gravitational pull of my pet cat
[01:14] <TheNovice> boss_mc: paman onlly gives network configuration options :(
[01:14] <ncfi1013> i know...how do burn them?
[01:15] <boss_mc> TheNovice: but it also installs padevchooser
[01:15] <thoku> ncfi1013: you could try creating an iso that contains those files. Those files are what you see if you browse a DVD manually
[01:15] <boss_mc> TheNovice: which will show you whether a programis correcly registering with pulse and where pulse is sending the sound
[01:15] <boss_mc> TheNovice: very useful little app
[01:15] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, sorry dude I was getting something to eat but yes Ive tried that as well.
[01:15] <RHorse> it's like working with the retarded
[01:16] <harujai> boss_mc: Are there any tricksy ways to disambiguate it?
[01:16] <TheNovice> boss_mc: when i run it, it just hangs
[01:16] <thoku> Kalmii, alesan: Looks like you can only do it one route at a time
[01:16] <mah> nfci1013:get dvd::rip or acidrip
[01:16] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: you may want to try a CD burning program called K3b, it handles those kinds of video files.
[01:16] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, I have the bcmwl5.inf driver installed but I have to also extract the .sys file for the stuff to work
[01:16] <thoku> Kalmii, alesan: route del ...
[01:16] <boss_mc> TheNovice: it's opens in the notification area
[01:16] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: sudo apt-get install k3b
[01:16] <TheNovice> boss_mc: ohhhhh
[01:16] <ncfi1013> i know that too...how do i do  what you are saying thoku?
[01:17] <boss_mc> TheNovice: left click, click volume manager
[01:17] <alesan> thoku, that is very inconvenient. on the other hand, "ifconfig ethX down" should autoimatically delete all the routes associated
[01:17] <Kalmiii> thoku, yeah... but we would like empty it without knowing about each entry...
[01:17] <ozzmosis> ncfi1013: I'm confused about what you said.  if you have an ISO, you can just burn the ISO.  if you have a set of .VOB files, you don't have an ISO.
[01:17] <boss_mc> TheNovice: left click, click volume control
[01:17] <boss_mc> TheNovice: sorry...
[01:17] <Kalmiii> alesan, oh... that sounds good
[01:17] <thoku> alesan: it isn't?
[01:17] <opie297> Hello everyone. My name is Jon.
[01:17] <thiebaude> hi
[01:17] <boss_mc> !hi | opie297
[01:17] <thoku> ncifi1013: try soulwarp's solution. It sounds like there are tools to do what you want
[01:18] <panfist> does running visual effects effect your battery life?
[01:18] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: What happened when you tried Hardware Drivers? You should already have the firmware you need and thus shouldn't need to extract anything ( to check if you have the firmware, see if there are directories named /lib/firmware/b43 and /lib/firmware/b43-legacy )
[01:18] <soulwarp> ozzmosis: i think he means how can he make an ISO with DVD files
[01:18] <mah> ozzmosis: i'm not sure what's happening, but shouldn't he first turn them into avi's with dvd::rip?
[01:18] <Kalmiii> opie297, Hello, my name Kalmi.
[01:18] <DIL> hey i cannot play any videos on cnn i get a double circle with a delta shaped play button
[01:18] <ozzmosis> mah: I don't think he wants AVIs :)
[01:18] <panfist> is there an ubuntu netbook remix channel?
[01:18] <opie297> Does anyone here have Linux Mint installed?
[01:18] <boss_mc> panfist: not a specific one
[01:18] <mah> ozzmosis: but maybe it would be easier to burn those to a dvd?
[01:19] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, I went the ndiswrapper route
[01:19] <mah> opie297:yes
[01:19] <TheNovice> boss_mc: now the PulseAudio meter works, moves, but no sound
[01:19] <mah> opie297:but I don't know much more than you about it
[01:19] <ozzmosis> mah: not really...
[01:19] <rashed2020> after doing "cat * | grep STRING" I found which directory what I was looking for is, anyway I can get it to display the filename?
[01:19] <boss_mc> ok, right click on a stream that is playing and try to move it to different hardware
[01:19] <boss_mc> TheNovice: ok, right click on a stream that is playing and try to move it to different hardware
[01:19] <ozzmosis> mah: more important to find out what he wants to do, first
[01:19] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, when I do hardware drivers and click activate it gets to about 50% search and fetch whatever and stops
[01:20] <opie297> oh I have no questions about it I just wanted to talk about how great it is.
[01:20] <ozzmosis> rashed2020: why not "grep STRING *" ?
[01:20] <Kalmiii> alesan, lol... my script sucks badly :D :http://paste.ubuntu.com/179938/
[01:20] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: I don't reccommend ndiswrapper as the open source drivers for your chipset are fine once you have the firmware ( though installing ndiswqrapper and blacklisting b43 can both prevent the open drivers from working )
[01:20] <DareDevil0> Hi there
[01:20] <rashed2020> err.. thanks!
[01:20] <DareDevil0> I am doing a work
[01:20] <thiebaude> how can i remove the time stamp on irssi?
[01:20] <ncfi1013>  ive got dvd::rip, acidrip, k3b. ozzmosis how do you turn .VOB files into an iso. yeah finally soulwarp knows what im talking about.
[01:21] <DareDevil0> And I would like to know some slogans for Linux
[01:21] <opie297> hello DareDevil
[01:21] <alesan> I have to go... thank you guys
[01:21] <jimisrvrox_> hrm..ok well Jordan_U says that the b43 driver is activated and in use...showing nothing in nm but I think I will do a restart and see if it picks up anything..
[01:21] <DareDevil0> Do you know any slogan_
[01:21] <DareDevil0> ??
[01:21] <jimisrvrox_> ok nvm got it..
[01:21] <mah> daredevil: like freeas in free speech?
[01:21] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: If Hardware Drivers didn't complete then it's not in use yet
[01:21] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, got it
[01:21] <ozzmosis> ncfi1013: just use Brasero and tell it to write to an ISO instead of burn a disc
[01:22] <DareDevil0> mah good tell me other
[01:22] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: just a second, i will find the tutorial on how to do that
[01:22] <Kalmiii> DareDevil0, If Bill Gates had a nickel for every time Windows crashed... Oh wait, he does.
[01:22] <boss_mc> TheNovice: any luck?
[01:22] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: You can download the file manually if Hardware Drivers is failing, or try simply running "sudo /usr/share/b43-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh
[01:22] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, thanks I appreciate it but I would like to know how the hell I managed to get the thing to work bc obviously it was not supported in the kernel..I am absent minded of what firmware I had to grab in order for it to work properly..
[01:22] <ozzmosis> ncfi1013: actually what I just said might not work properly.  never mind :)
[01:23] <Alposky> um hi guys i got a read error for a dvd yesterday could it be cause of region lock?
[01:23] <TUplink> i have put a nfs entrie in /etc/fstab    mount /media/Shares    mounts it but why wont it mount on startup?
[01:23] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: So it's working now?
[01:23] <jl> How do you switch to the standard Ubuntu desktop on the Net Book Remix edition?
[01:23] <TUplink> any ideas?
[01:23] <entraide-net> http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16554 does this work for ati xpress 1150 (ati 200M) on a dell inspiron 1501 ? please leave a yes or no in private I will see it when I come back thanks for your help !!!
[01:23] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, yeah I had tried something like that but it was telling me bcm43xx-fwcutter command not found and I had b43-fwcutter installed..so idk..ive always had probs with installing these stupid wifi cards and Id like to really get it to where I can do that crap in about 10 minutes of work
[01:23] <panfist> i have an ubuntu installtion that uses HDMI out. whenever I reboot it, if the TV is not on, and then I turn the TV on I don't seem to get any ouput. however, if I restart it with the TV on, then output is fine. is there anyway i can accomplish this without rebooting?
[01:24] <unop_> TUplink, it's probably missing the 'auto' option ...
[01:24] <eNons3nse> i'm having a problem.  my mp3 player keeps saying it's Read Only when i try to put stuff on it, but when i look at the permissions I should be fully able to copy to it.
[01:24] <mah> daredevil: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/coffee-lounge/40177-list-linux-quotes-slogans.html
[01:24] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: Be carefull not to use out of date tutorials, the command is now b43-fwcutter not bcm43xx-fwcutter

[01:24] <TUplink> i did auto and it still wouldnt boot
[01:24] <RHorse> eNons3nse just  use sudo to cp files
[01:25] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, right right..
[01:25] <ncfi1013> soulwarp any luck?
[01:25] <eNons3nse> RHorse: ok.
[01:25] <jimisrvrox_> Jordan_U, do you mind if I pm you?
[01:25] <jl> eNons3nse:  maybe you have to be root.  What kind of mp3 player is it?
[01:25] <DareDevil0> Thanks every one
[01:25] <DareDevil0> I will see
[01:25] <RHorse> another satisfied  customer
[01:25] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: Before you use any tutorial first check the official documentation and wiki.ubuntu.com *then* if there is no tutorial there make sure that the tutorial you are following explicitly states that it's for your version of Ubuntu
[01:25] <boss_mc> TheNovice: In volume control, on the Playback Tab do you have any streams listed (other than system sounds)?
[01:25] <TUplink> ibe be happy if i could get a simple thing to work
[01:25] <Jordan_U> jimisrvrox_: No
[01:25] <TUplink> i have never had a prob with anything like this b4
[01:25] <TUplink> it always just works
[01:25] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: in k3b open file->new project->new video dvd project
[01:26] <TUplink> guess thats what i get for using ubuntu
[01:26] <TheNovice> boss_mc: yes, i have one, TOTEM movie player
[01:26] <boss_mc> TheNovice: ok, right click on that and see what's selected under 'Move Stream'
[01:26] <jl> Is there a "Remix" channel?
[01:26] <Roasted> QUESTION - In my computer, I have 4 SATA drives, plugged into ports 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively. Ubuntu, however, has 2 of my drive ID's switched. Even though I mount the drives to their folders via UUID in /etc/fstab, theres 2 that come through mixed up and I want them switched. Yet like I said, theyre plugged in 1 2 3 4, yet Ubuntu sees A C B D. Why is this??
[01:26] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: just drag and drop your files video files in VIDEO_TS
[01:27] <eNons3nse> RHorse: it still wont let me.
[01:27] <TheNovice> boss_mc: yeah, i have 3 options, SImultaneus, Intel, RPT
[01:27] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: after that you should be able to burn it to dvd
[01:27] <TUplink> unop_: ijust am trying with auto again
[01:27] <boss_mc> TheNovice: set it to Intel
[01:27] <TUplink> not gonna work tho
[01:27] <RHorse> eNons3nse thatt's a problem
[01:27] <TheNovice> boss_mc: it is intel already, tried all of 3, none works :(
[01:27] <boss_mc> under output devices what have you got listed?
[01:28] <ozzmosis> soulwarp: that sounds a lot better than Brasero .. I drag + dropped an mpeg-2 file (recorded from DVB) into a DVD Video project with it and it won't let me burn it... all the options are greyed out :)
[01:28] <TUplink> unop_: nope still no good
[01:28] <eNons3nse> RHorse: it used to work fine.  then suddenly it started giving me read only errors.  sometimes i can unplug and re-plug the device and it will work.  but that's not even working every time now.
[01:28] <boss_mc> TheNovice: make sure none of them are muted, and that the intel one is boucing with the sound
[01:28] <TheNovice> boss_mc: i have, simultaneous, HDA intel (is moving a lot), and RPT
[01:28] <unop_> TUplink, I'd have a poke in /var/log/{syslog,messages}  etc
[01:28] <eNons3nse> RHorse: it's a sansa clip
[01:29] <ncfi1013> soulwarp thanks for that help. i just have one other question: if there are no AUDIO_TS files to go with the VIDEO_TS files will that be a problem?
[01:29] <RHorse> eNons3nse maybe try mounting with umask=0 option: man mountt
[01:29] <boss_mc> TheNovice: Are your speakers turned on? (hides from backlash)
[01:29] <ozzmosis> ncfi1013: that's quite normal
[01:29] <soulwarp> ozzmosis: k3b handles the vob files just fine, it can also back up DVDs
[01:29] <ozzmosis> ncfi1013: AUDIO_TS is used for Audio DVDs which are not very common
[01:29] <CharelB> hey guy's i'm using 9.04 , and I have this problem , I can't connect to my wlan ( In the past , i Can , there was no problem ) , now when I click on the WLan icon , he said " wirless disabled" , but I can't enable it :/ can you help me please?
[01:29] <TheNovice> boss_mc: well yeah, i pluged on the Headphones to test as well
[01:29] <TheNovice> boss_mc: its a laptop
[01:29] <TheNovice> boss_mc: Acer Aspire 6935g
[01:30] <macman_> whats a good app that can resize a picture but can maintain the high quality of the picture ?
[01:30] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: nah the AUDIO_TS folder is rarely used
[01:30] <vergil> macman_: probably gimp
[01:30] <mah> thenovice: its possible that no amount of tinkering will ever fix it
[01:30] <boss_mc> TheNovice: so every volume is turned up, nothing is muted (in volume control or in pulse volume control)?
[01:30] <ozzmosis> macman_: GIMP .. or ImageMagick
[01:30] <boss_mc> TheNovice: because it sounds to me like it's 'working' as far as the OS is concerned
[01:30] <macman_> i will try gimp
[01:30] <TheNovice> boss_mc: yeah, all maxed, if any moment the sound comes out, ill be legally deft...
[01:31] <unkmar_> I have a dead/old/ghostly link to a non-existant mount point on my gnome desktop.  How do I remove it without a reboot?
[01:31] <eNons3nse> RHorse: I just replugged my player and it's working now.  It's very sketchy.
[01:31] <panfist> how can i get the default config files that come with packages? are they available through the repository?
[01:31] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: when i test my dvds i make an ISO then open it with VLC to see if it works before i burn it to DVD
[01:31] <vergil> quick question - just through 9.04 down on a Dell Mini 10 - am I stuck in 800x576 - I've heard some rumbles that others have gotten 1024x576 to work.
[01:31] <RHorse> eNons3nse Weird!
[01:32] <Jordan_U> vergil: Can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
[01:32] <TUplink> unop_, its like its not trying to mount it  not in any of them
[01:32] <mase_work> vergil: not sure its been done. It could have but i know the drivers for that card aren't the normal -intel drivers
[01:32] <FloridaGuy> whats better useing sudo aptitude install (package) or sudo apt-get install (package)
[01:32] <dsdeiz> anyone using xmms?
[01:32] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: VLC has an option to open DVD ISO files
[01:32] <TheNovice> boss_mc: well if there is a secret place to unmute things, i would try now
[01:32] <ncfi1013> soulwwarp you know how many times ive asked that question in different times and variations and youre the only one that told me what ive been trying to find out all this time?
[01:32] <boss_mc> FloridaGuy: aptitude is supposed to be better but it's longer to type!
[01:32] <Roasted> QUESTION - In my computer, I have 4 SATA drives, plugged into ports 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively. Ubuntu, however, has 2 of my drive ID's switched.

[01:48] <TheNovice> boss_mc: N: main.c: We are not in group 'pulse-rt', PolicyKit refuse to grant us the requested privileges and we have no increase RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits.

[01:49] <CradLeRcker> boss_mc,  its not letting me. keeps saying that connection failed: connection refused
[01:49] <boss_mc> CradLeRcker: sounds like pulse isn't running after all
[01:49] <boss_mc> CradLeRcker: do sound apps work?
[01:49] <ozzmosis> soulwarp: I was going to ask you what you recommend for ripping DVDs but I just discovered DVD Shrink seems to run faultlessly under WINE so maybe I'll just use that ;)
[01:50] <CradLeRcker> ya
[01:50] <brime> cchen: 2.6.26-2-486
[01:50] <TheNovice> boss_mc: done, do i need to relogin to refresh permissions?
[01:50] <boss_mc> TheNovice: you should be in all three groups with pulse in their name
[01:50] <boss_mc> TheNovice: you may well, I had to I think...
[01:50] <cchen> brim: try >= 2.6.28-11, better support for wacom
[01:51] <soulwarp> ozzmosis: i hear that works
[01:51] <cchen> brime: try >= 2.6.28-11, better support for wacom.  (sorry, typo on your name)
[01:51] <TheNovice> boss_mc: fixed, im in the 3 groups, but...   I: caps.c: Dropping root privileges. I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE.
[01:58] <boss_mc> `swoolley: seen  you before
[01:59] <maximuss> anyone?
[01:59] <fuuta> sounds nice
[01:59] <boss_mc> TheNovice: better...
[01:59] <fuuta> happy with the perf. ?
[01:59] <TheNovice> boss_mc: yeah, it loads... what was the name of the applet?
[01:59] <ozzmosis> fuuta: does the job :)
[01:59] <maximuss> can somebody zip up and send me /etc/samba perhaps?
[01:59] <boss_mc> TheNovice: padevchooser
[01:59]  * fuuta claps :)
[02:00] <ozzmosis> maximuss: you can get /etc/samba/* from the samba package
[02:00] <unop_> maximuss,  backup /etc/samba and do   sudo aptitude reinstall samba samba-common
[02:00] <panfist> is there any kind of apache configuration gui, like phpmyadmin for mysql?
[02:01] <TheNovice> boss_mc: everything looks ok
[02:01] <fuuta> ozzmosis,  are u using the server n an intranet? what actualy is the server busy doin?

[02:01] <jigp> hello guys how to enable flash and java in mozilla so that i could play some sites that have flash and java.. thanks
[02:02] <fuuta> pici dnt ya think of putting a ban isp-wide?
[02:02] <ozzmosis> fuuta: it's a mail server for a few people on a home network
[02:02] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: yes, you need the files to be in VOB format
[02:02] <boss_mc> TheNovice: I'm stuck then, I can't help shake the feeling that you've somehow got something muted...
[02:02] <fuuta> great,
[02:02] <Pici> fuuta: Why? The flooder keeps coming in on the same set of nicks.
[02:02] <maximuss> still no luck.. it only created /etc/samba/smbpasswd, but not cmb.conf and those
[02:02] <FloridaGuy> about ready to switch distro's...package managementing give me to much trouble
[02:03] <ozzmosis> fuuta: like I said .. it doesn't really get to do much except run spamassassin
[02:03] <TheNovice> boss_mc: pulseaudio still using alsa or oss? or is totally independient?
[02:03] <boss_mc> TheNovice: there are two mutes in Volume Control (Playback and Output Devices)
[02:03] <Kalmiii> jigp, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[02:03] <fuuta> what if he didnt come on the same sets pici? would you treat the same?
[02:03] <Guest81951> ok, I'll try that
[02:03] <Pici> fuuta: Depends.
[02:03] <boss_mc> TheNovice: It uses all of them that's it's purpose, it pulls them all together
[02:03] <TheNovice> boss_mc: yeah i tried both, there is also a shield, dunno what for is it
[02:03] <soulwarp> FloridaGuy: I'm not sure how to fix it, restate your issue again so someone can help you. I'm also new.
[02:03] <Tags> Is it possible to tell GRUB to boot from a Windows partition even if the computer could not boot from that partition before installing Ubuntu?
[02:04] <boss_mc> TheNovice: you could ask your question in #pulseaudio btw, they're sometimes helpful although it's more a dev chanell
[02:04] <fuuta> pici , i am glad to hear it, you seem to have the ethics of pping
[02:04] <fuuta> *opping
[02:04] <maximuss> ozzmosis, how can i get /etc/samba/* from the package?
[02:04] <FloridaGuy> sudo aptitude autoremove
[02:04] <TheNovice> boss_mc: ok
[02:04] <bk> how do i format a usb drive?
[02:04] <ottertoast> maximuss, have you looked on google? i remember getting some default setting files for samba from a website once.
[02:04] <Kalmiii> bk, use gparted
[02:04] <bk> how?
[02:05] <what_if> Tags: depends, if the windows bootloader is intact but the MBR was toast, then yes
[02:05] <ncfi1013> ok inside the VIDEO_TS folder there are VOB formats, which is the mpeg video, but also there are BUP and IFO formats.
[02:05] <bk> gparted /media/drive?
[02:05] <boss_mc> maximuss: have you tried purging samba to remove all traces of it then reinstalling?
[02:05] <maximuss> ottertoast, i thought there could be a console way of fixing it
[02:05] <fuuta> didnt know you were opping in #ubuntu pici
[02:05] <Kalmiii> bk, gparted is a gui tool
[02:05] <Kalmiii> bk, gparted
[02:05] <ottertoast> bk, you can do sudo apt-get install gparted
[02:05] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: how did you get those files? are they copies of another DVD?
[02:05] <ozzmosis> soulwarp: VideoRedo Plus (frame accurate MPEG2 editor) also works under WINE.  not very stable in the version of WINE that's in Ubuntu 9.04, but usable.  shame there's no decent Linux equivalent (afaik).
[02:05] <ottertoast> bk, it should then appear in your menus
[02:06] <Tags> what_if: I copied the windows partition from 'disk 1' to 'disk 2' using Partition Magic
[02:06] <panfist> is it possible to recover default configuration files of packages?
[02:06] <maximuss> boss_mc, yes sir, but it left /etc/samba folder, and i had problems with smb.conf, so me being a dumbss i rm rfed it
[02:06] <donavan01> anyone know how to get a old windows gain to not go to full screen in WINE
[02:06] <donavan01> sorry windows game not gain
[02:06] <jetru> does anyone elses ubuntu slow down after being left on for a long time(without any activity - idle)?
[02:07] <ozzmosis> jetru: is it on a laptop?
[02:07] <Tags> what_if: Next My PC could not boot anymore. So I installed Ubuntu, Ubuntu could not find any onther OS. So there is no mention of a Windows OS in GRUB
[02:07] <what_if> Tags: eww... you can try telling GRUB to remap the hard drives so windows is on C: again instead of D:
[02:07] <RHorse> panfist dpkg -purge and then reinstall
[02:07] <Kalmiii> jetru, no...
[02:07] <soulwarp> ozzmosis: there is something similar called DeVeDe. It supports menus and chapters along with auto resize
[02:07] <jetru> ozzmosis: yes. jaunty with all updates. inspiron
[02:07] <Tags> what_if: Windows is on C:
[02:07] <panfist> RHorse thanks
[02:07] <Kalmiii> donavan01, winecfg -> Graphics -> Virtual Desktop size
[02:07] <ozzmosis> jetru: it could be the CPU being slowed down, to save battery
[02:08] <soulwarp> ozzmosis: basically drag any vid file into it and it makes a DVD
[02:08] <RHorse> panfist yw
[02:08] <boss_mc> maximuss: http://paste.debian.net/37028/
[02:08] <jetru> ozzmosis: no, the cpu is not slower. actually, cpu usage pushes up to 20% with xorg, multiload app, and 'top' being high up
[02:09] <ozzmosis> soulwarp: I use VideoRedo for editing my DVB recordings - cutting out commercials, mostly :)
[02:09] <donavan01> Kalmiii thanks I would have fought for hours im sure ... never thought about wine config ... <donavan smacks himself>
[02:09] <maximuss> boss_mc, thank you
[02:09] <ozzmosis> soulwarp: ah, I'll have a look at it
[02:09] <what_if> Tags: you can try to boot it with chainloading, you need grub.conf lines to do this ?
[02:09] <boss_mc> maximuss: and a file called gdbcommands containing bt and quit on seperate lines
[02:09] <jzmer> do users prefer a square metacity window border or a round one?
[02:09] <soulwarp> ozzmosis: sadly linux have very few options as far as video editing
[02:09] <jetru> ozzmosis: and my cpu is almost always on the lower speed anyway and it seems to work fine.
[02:09] <Tags> what_if: how do I do it?
[02:10] <ozzmosis> jetru: don't know, sorry
[02:10] <boss_mc> ozzmosis: avidemux is as good as vdubmod
[02:10] <jetru> do you have any ideas on how i could diagnose the problem so i can file a sane bug report?
[02:10] <maximuss> boss_mc, what do you mean?
[02:10] <what_if> Tags: you will need to edit grub.conf. __Is there a gui for editing  grub.conf anyone ___ ?
[02:10] <soulwarp> i didn't like avidemux too much because it has no was to upgrade codecs
[02:10] <ncfi1013> soulwarp i am truly sorry if ive asked you this question already. i might have and forgotten. how do i convert a VIDEO_TS folder to an iso so i can then burn it to a dvd?
[02:11] <soulwarp> way*
[02:11] <boss_mc> maximuss: as well as the smb.conf there's a file called gdbcommands
[02:11] <Tags> what_if: you mean the menu.lst?
[02:11] <boss_mc> maximuss: it has two lines in it, the first is 'bt' and the second is 'quit' (without quotes)
[02:11] <ozzmosis> boss_mc: I get A/V sync problems with AviDemux and DVB files.  I use it for editing analogue captures, where it works better, although it doesn't seem to be frame accurate.
[02:11] <maximuss> boss_mc, got ya... ill go search for it
[02:12] <esde> Revelation: sup
[02:12] <Revelation> O.o
[02:12] <boss_mc> ozzmosis: I've not had problems with it, but I've not really stressed it much

[02:12] <Tags> what_if: sure
[02:12] <boss_mc> TheNovice: any luck?
[02:12] <what_if> Tags: will brb,
[02:12] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: just hit the button labeled burn and it will burn it to DVD
[02:12] <esde> If Revelation uses the WUBI installer to install Ubuntu 9.04 onto a External Drive will it work?
[02:12] <Lyez> anyone have problems with installing Linksys Wireless-G 2.4ghz PCMCIA cards for notebooks?  I'm installing it on a Dell Latitude d610 and in the previous release it was pretty much plug and play, now it's not finding it.
[02:13] <Revelation> hey guys I want to install ubuntu on my external hard drive   how would I go around doing that
[02:13] <Revelation> oh
[02:13] <Revelation> he asked for me lol
[02:13] <maximuss> boss_mc, so just these 3 files? gdbcommands  smb.conf  smbpasswd
[02:13] <TheNovice> boss_mc: nope :(
[02:13] <RHorse> Revelation i've never had luck installing on a usb drive
[02:14] <Revelation> oh
[02:14] <Revelation> :-/
[02:14] <esde> so installing on Local Disk is best way?
[02:14] <zethero1> a friend of mine wants to change his sudo/login password in Ubuntu ... how would he go about doing this?
[02:14] <RHorse> or mebbe my box can't boot from one
[02:14] <vitaldoc> hello all
[02:14] <server_> yo
[02:14] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: or if you prefer when you hit the burn button, specify a name of an ISO file to burn into an image ie: DVD.iso
[02:14] <ozzmosis> zethero1: sudo chpass .. I think
[02:14] <coz_> zethero1,  I believe   sudo passwd
[02:14] <ozzmosis> zethero1: sorry, sudo passwd
[02:14] <fuuta> passwd from  bash afaik
[02:14] <jetru> Revelation: http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=ubuntu+usb+drive+install :D
[02:14] <Revelation> lulz
[02:14] <ozzmosis> chpass is FreeBSD :S
[02:14] <esde> jetru: fail.
[02:15] <Revelation> If i install it on the drive
[02:15] <Revelation> will it still work as a external drive?
[02:15] <jetru> esde: u mean the google?
[02:15] <zethero1> ozzmosis: so sudo passwd ..... and then type the new password?
[02:15] <esde> Revelation: it will be more trouble because you will need to choose to boot from usb hard disk in boot time
[02:15] <esde> easier to WUBI install
[02:15] <Tags> what_if: I think I cannot find grub.conf
[02:15] <ozzmosis> zethero1: I think it asks for the old password first
[02:16] <jetru> Revelation: Not sure, probably hard to do that! :D
[02:16] <soulwarp> ncfi1013: I'm logging off, did you have any more questions?
[02:16] <what_if> Tags: it is called menu.lst on Ubuntu, you were correct

[02:30] <iamtechno> IamSOG, what do you mean by two kernels? at startup?
[02:30] <dforsyth> the reason im asking about toram on the livecd is because i saw bugreports or ideas or whatever theyre called 'round these parts that suggested teh feater.  then i saw some comments saying its available.  but when i set the boot option, no joy.
[02:30] <what_if> Tags: brh
[02:30] <IamSOG> ya, iamtechno we can choose which kernel to boot up, they are like different version
[02:31] <thinlizzy151> I have followed the documentation and installed libdvdcss2 via the terminal, and yet I still cannot get a DVD to mount so I can play it. What else should I do?
[02:31] <iamtechno> IamSOG, generally they are the same kernel but different boot options like "quit" and "nosplash"
[02:32] <ncfi1013> ok bmwracer0 will you tell me where to begin?
[02:32] <iamtechno> thinlizzy151, what are you using to play dvd'd with? mplayer...
[02:32] <IamSOG> I see... but there's a number different at the back of the name of the boot, so I though they are diffenret verson, anyway thanks iamtechno
[02:32] <Tully> Hey whats the best application on linux to replace itunes?
[02:32] <billisnice> my advise for non technical folks is to stay with 8.04 for less problems...priter and wifi issues will drive some away...
[02:33] <boss_mc> Tully: dangerous question
[02:33] <RHorse> Tully mpg123
[02:33] <thinlizzy151> I am using totem
[02:33] <iamtechno> IamSOG, if they have a different number at the end then one is an update
[02:33] <quaal> how do i find out why my server is catastrophically failing. the power remains on when the network, video, keyboard/mouse do nothing.
[02:33] <boss_mc> Tully: rhythmbox is a pretty decent clone

[02:34] <iamtechno> thinlizzy151, try mplayer instead IMHO it is the best media player on linux.
[02:34] <ncfi1013> bmwracer0 what next: open file, directory, disc, network, or convert/save?
[02:34] <Tully> boss_mc: Easy application to install or?
[02:34] <iamtechno> thinlizzy151, personally I haven't played DVD's on anything but mplayer
[02:34] <TheNovice> boss_mc: ive rebooted, and works perfectly
[02:34] <jetru> *cough* vlc
[02:34] <boss_mc> Tully: should be installed by default

[02:36] <vock> Linux + Firefox related question: I'm downloading a torrent that I want to run with qbittorrent instead of transmission. Have qbittorrent installed, and when I go to download it, I try to switch the Open with: to Other, but the problem is i have no idea where to find the executable file for qbittorrent. Where does ubuntu typically install the exec files?

[02:36] <boss_mc> vock: /usr/bin/
[02:36] <what_if> Tags: lol, maybe try remapping the drives from grub. Windows may not like being moved from hd0 to hd1. That is how you moved it ?
[02:37] <iamtechno> vock, try on the command line whereis qbittorrent
[02:37] <boss_mc> TheNovice: have you done this too? http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2009/04/29/acer-aspire-6920-bass-not-working-on-ubuntu-jaunty-904/

[02:40] <TheNovice> boss_mc: i guess all people with intel audio cards, are having the same problem
[02:40] <boss_mc> snth: HAL notices them and mounts them

[02:46] <billybigrigger> roger
[02:46] <geirha> ldiamond: VNC. There's a vnc server installed by default. You enable it in System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop. To connect, use a vnc client (Applications -> Accessories -> Remote Desktop Viewer is a VNC client installed by default in Ubuntu)

[02:49] <invite> what makes me really mad is that it's working from PC1 to PC2 but not from PC2 to PC1 although I have followed EXACTLY the same steps on both !
[02:49] <ldiamond> geirha, It doesnt work, when I enable it, it says its only available from localhost. I tried installing xrdp (couldnt view anything) and tightvnc (couldnt get the current session)
[02:49] <Kruger> can some one help me with these instructions I can't follow these two lines
[02:49] <Kruger> export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware"
[02:49] <Kruger> wget http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.bz2
[02:49] <boss_mc> !askthebot > anternat
[02:49] <anternat> was readin :)
[02:49] <billybigrigger> meoblast001::: its only about 6 steps
[02:49] <eseven73> iamtechno, im in here like 12 hours a day and from what i see, 90% of the ops in here don't pipe the !Enter command to a nick, for whatever reason, so I felt that it's best without the piping
[02:49] <anternat> ty boss
[02:49] <billybigrigger> meoblast001::: read the whole thing first and undestand everything
[02:49] <boss_mc> s'ok
[02:50] <iamtechno> eseven73, kk
[02:50] <billybigrigger> meoblast001::: i know your looking at it saying wow, that looks like alot to do, i don't want to do this, i need someone to tell me how to do it...
[02:50] <th0r> Kruger: what do you need?
[02:50] <billybigrigger> meoblast001::: but if you read, its 1 simple command, and then a copy/paste
[02:50] <meoblast001> billybigrigger: no... now it doesn't seem that bad
[02:50] <beatlesfan> hey all
[02:50] <amseidler> How do i change my screen res?
[02:50] <meoblast001> billybigrigger: i thought the big was was my xorg config and freaked out
[02:50] <invite> so does anyone have any idea what am I missing cause I'am really fed up
[02:50] <Kruger> th0r: well I can follow those intructions line for line but I'm not getting it from the internet.  I've downloaded it tothe desktop already so I need to know what kind of modifcation i hav eto make
[02:50] <meoblast001> i know what happens when you screw up an xorg config
[02:50] <Kruger> wget http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.bz2
[02:50] <amseidler> How do I change my screen res? I went to sys>pref> and display but 1400x900 wasn't there
[02:50] <beatlesfan> I just made the switch over to Ubuntu 9.04 from Winxp
[02:50] <iamtechno> eseven73, All i did was type the command, alt Tabe to another with and when I alt tabbed back, didn't see you had already !enter'd
[02:50] <Kruger> should I use wget /desktop...
[02:51] <Kruger> and I have no idea what this even means export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware"
[02:51] <amseidler> How do I change my screen res? I went to sys>pref> and display but 1400x900 wasn't there
[02:51] <fryguy--> amseidler: you can just add it manually to /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you want
[02:51] <th0r> Kruger: the wget will download to whatever directory you are in in the terminal when you enter the command.
[02:51] <amseidler> fryguy--: How?
[02:52] <fryguy--> amseidler: there's a manpage for the file that describes it's syntax
[02:52] <RHorse> !hi | beatlesfan
[02:52] <RedSocrates> Kruger: That 'export' command is something you should enter at the commandline.  It simply sets the FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR variable for other programs to use
[02:52] <iamtechno> amseidler, maybe your system can't handle that resolution
[02:52] <Kruger> RedSocrates: what do you mean other programs to use
[02:52] <eseven73> iamtechno, yea you might have been lagging, go on Clarke if you're on west coast, it's really good. :)
[02:52] <amseidler> iamtechno: It can, I was using it on my old install ofUbuntu
[02:52] <th0r> Kruger: if you have the package already downloaded, then you need to untar it and then run the program inside. It will look for the FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR variable set in the first line
[02:52] <RedSocrates> Kruger: Well, presumably the one you're installing via the instructions (I haven't been following exactly what you're doing)
[02:52] <vieirar> What is the best DNLA application for sharing pictures, music and video to my PS3
[02:52] <iamtechno> eseven73, Clarke? as in the channel?
[02:53] <fryguy--> !best | vieirar
[02:53] <eseven73> server
[02:53] <RedSocrates> Kruger: Right, what th0r said.  The thing you're installing will be looking for FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR, so the export command sets that variable in order for what you're installing to find it
[02:53] <eseven73> iamtechno, clarke.freenode.net
[02:53] <iamtechno> eseven73, will do
[02:54] <th0r> Kruger: that wget command leads me to believe it is a source file, so you might have to compile it
[02:54] <XAR> Why ctrl+c in akregator doesn't work?! I have to go to popup menu to copy selected text to clipboard! (PS: Ctrl+Insert doesn't work either)
[02:54] <Kruger> th0r: yea I'm on step like 10 of 20 I've already "untar'd" it
[02:54] <fryguy--> XAR: selected text is put into a clipboard for you automatically, just middle click to paste
[02:55] <meoblast001> billybigrigger: how do i right click
[02:55] <Kruger> so is export like a command that looks for the following line?
[02:55] <th0r> Kruger: I am downloading it now to see what it is
[02:55] <Kruger> does it depend on what I type next?
[02:55] <Kruger> kk
[02:55] <fryguy--> Kruger: export is used to set environment variables
[02:55] <billybigrigger> meoblast001::: ?\
[02:55] <Kruger> its fwcutter
[02:55] <meoblast001> with the controller
[02:55] <fryguy--> Kruger: in bash style shells
[02:55] <fryguy--> (sh, bash, zsh, etc)
 Interesting behaviour... But thank you, that helped!
[02:56] <Kruger> fryguy: so FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR is something common to linux or specific to the program I'm downloading
[02:56] <geirha> ldiamond: is Only allow local connections ticked in the Advanced tab?
[02:56] <derfens> Hey guys I want to delete files in a specific partition that are above a certain size. To do so I used the search function and made it look for files larger than a certain size. However I cannot delete the files be selecting them in the search box and pressing Shift + Delete. They simply go to the recycling bin. I dont want that to happen (will they be moved from the original partition to the home or root partition when they are moved to the trash?). How ca
[02:56] <derfens> n I delete them directly from the search window? Thanks
[02:56] <fryguy--> Kruger: specific to the program you are downloading
[02:56] <boss_mc> derfens: shift+del is delete properly
[02:56] <andrewfree> http://pastebin.com/m4cbffbea  anyone know whats wrong there?
[02:56] <billybigrigger> meoblast001::: good question
[02:56] <th0r> Kruger: it does look like source code, but there is no make file...not sure what to do with it
[02:56] <meoblast001> billybigrigger: i'll get the jscallibrator to find out
[02:56] <billybigrigger> meoblast001::: i never said i used the ps3 controller for a mouse, i just know how to use google :P
[02:56] <Kruger> th0r: oh that's firmware
[02:57] <Kruger> I'm updating my wireless card
[02:57] <meoblast001> billybigrigger: i know how to ask and then google :P
[02:57] <ldiamond> geirha, theres no advanced tab.
[02:57] <Kruger> so I have fwcutter and the firmware on my desktop now I'm just not sure what to do next
[02:57] <meoblast001> billybigrigger: i instinctively do it in the wrong order
[02:57] <billybigrigger> meoblast001::: i found that site to help you out, beyond pointing you in the right direction...your on your own :P
[02:57] <billybigrigger> hehe
[02:57] <derfens> boss_mc,  I know but if i do that from the search window it ignores the shitft and simply moves the files to the trash.... does that mean the files are moved from their original partition to the root or home partition?
[02:57] <ldiamond> geirha, I restarted my computer and it worked... for some reason. However, I am really concerned about the security and performance of this.
[02:57] <Kruger> th0r: and this is the next step
[02:57] <Kruger> sudo ../../b43-fwcutter-011/b43-fwcutter -w "$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR" wl_apsta_mimo.o
[02:58] <meoblast001> billybigrigger: i usually google it while someone answered me
[02:58] <ldiamond> geirha, also, I am unable to enable/disable remote desktop from a SSH session using gconftool-2
[02:58] <Kruger>  :S
[02:58] <what_if> andrewfree: was mysql ever installed previously? Its possible there is a residual config file
[02:58] <IamSOG> nice! I didnt' know Ububtu have so many softwares for Ham Radio !!!
[02:58] <Kruger> I'd paste all 6 lines but the flood control would go off
[02:58] <th0r> Kruger: right...run that command but first make sure you are in the directory called driver
[02:58] <boss_mc> derfens: huh, fail search box... ubuntu create's a trash folder in the same partition as the origional file (which is weird on ntfs windows mounts...)
[02:58] <Kruger> th0r: k
[02:58]  * what_if waves to IamSOG... KL4YFD
[02:58] <th0r> Kruger: that is where that file (wl_apsta.o) is located
[02:58] <andrewfree> what_if:  yea it was, I did purge it already, but didnt delete my database, I need that.
[02:58] <Kruger> th0r: oh this step:   cd broadcom-wl-<IP_ADDRESS>/driver
[02:59] <IamSOG> hi what if, I need to get my license too :D but my currecnt location is Vr2 xx
[02:59] <Kruger> hmm its all listed here nicely its just I didn't download it from wget
[02:59] <Kruger> so I'm confused
[02:59] <Kruger> th0r: export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware"
[02:59] <Kruger> wget http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.150.10
[02:59] <Kruger> how do I mod the wget to make it not from the website but from my desktop
[02:59] <geirha> ldiamond: Does gconftool-2 give you an error?
[03:00] <fryguy--> Kruger: ?
[03:00] <RHorse> IamSOG yes I use  several
[03:00] <th0r> Kruger: if you have it on the desktop, then you just need to untar it
[03:00] <fryguy--> Kruger: there is no need to use wget if it's already on your desktop
[03:00] <Kruger> frygy: these instruction are assuming that I have an internet connection which I do not have
[03:00] <ldiamond> geirha, no, it looks like its working, but it has no effect
[03:00] <IamSOG> what_if:  does the morse trainning program good in Ubintu ?
[03:00] <PCTeacher012> hey all
[03:00] <Kruger> frygy: oh ok
[03:00] <PCTeacher012> i need help installing :)
[03:00] <fryguy--> Kruger: so then ignore the wget
[03:00] <bk> help
[03:00] <Kruger> frygy: do I still need to do the export thing?
[03:00] <bk> anyone
[03:00] <bk> haha
[03:00] <fryguy--> Kruger: yes
[03:00] <iam_techno> !ask
[03:00] <Kruger> fryguy: kk
[03:00] <th0r> Kruger: yes
[03:01] <what_if> IamSOG: I've never used one, gave up on code, unfortunately
[03:01] <PCTeacher012> the first time i installed it, it said i could split the hard drive in half. it is no longer giving me the option, only allowing me to use whole disk which i want half for XP
[03:01] <PCTeacher012> thanks
[03:01] <what_if> andrewfree: can you manually start mysqld and see if it errors ?
[03:01] <PCTeacher012> i went to manual
[03:01] <PCTeacher012> now what?
[03:01] <geirha> ldiamond: So if you disable it, you can still connect? Try doing it using gconf-editor
[03:01] <iam_techno> !enter
[03:02] <gartral> how do i restart the service that reads the aliases/configs out of ~/.bashrc?
[03:02] <PCTeacher012> anyone?
[03:02] <cherwin> just source .bashrc
[03:02]  * IamSOG is trying to find  a software that will connect with his Icom IC-R100  :D
[03:02] <th0r> gartral: log out and back in. or open a terminal
[03:02] <Kruger> fryguy or th0r:  ok I'm on the last step.    sudo ../../b43-fwcutter-011/b43-fwcutter -w "$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR" wl_apsta_mimo.o     do I need the  ../../ part at the beginning or is that place holder for something I'm supuposed to enter
[03:02] <bk> There is not enough room on the disk to save /tmp/XJTFh_i3.bin.part.
[03:02] <bk> Remove unnecessary files from the disk and try again, or try saving in a different location
[03:02] <Priswell> I've been having video problems. I can't even see the desktop. So, after I sign in (blind), I hit Alt + F1 and drop down to the console to try to fix things. I sign in, and do a little work, after which, I run out of screen. From there, I can't scroll down. Page Down does not work, Shift + Page Down does not work. How can I get it to scroll?
[03:02] <andrewfree> what_if:  It failed still.
[03:02] <boss_mc> gartral: . .bashrc or source .bashrc
[03:02] <fryguy--> Kruger: it's the path
[03:02] <what_if> andrewfree: I am installing to see if I can dup.
[03:03] <gartral> th0r: rather just use console, logging out takes forever on my comp
[03:03] <PCTeacher012> am i forced to remove XP now?
[03:03] <fryguy--> Kruger: '..' is a path shortcut for "up a level"
[03:03] <ldiamond> geirha, if I do it from locally on the machine, I can enable/disable it with gconftool-2, however, if I do it through a SSH session, it doesnt work
[03:03] <th0r> Kruger, the ../../ tells it to move up two levels in the directories
[03:03] <iam_techno> PCTeacher012, What may have happen is that you erased the whole hdd and formatted it
[03:03] <poseidon> Whats a good program for playing music?
[03:03] <mikeyfbi> anyone know if i can use gnome-screensavers logout screen while still using an xscreensaver screensaver?
[03:03] <Kruger> th0r: wow I wonder how it knows my directory tree
[03:03] <andrewfree> what_if:  Ok
[03:03] <cherwin> poseidon: banshee
[03:03] <burvowski> poseidon Rhythmbox
[03:03] <mikeyfbi> cause xscreensavers lock screen is UGLY!
[03:03] <RHorse> Priswell sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[03:03] <PCTeacher012> well, no, i still can boot into xp, i just started installation, i wanna go back to Ubuntu but keep XP @ iam_techno
[03:03] <iam_techno> poseidon, mpayer works too
[03:03] <Kruger> meh, whatever I'm just going to trust it lol
[03:03] <th0r> Kruger: don't think it does...it is depending on the whole process as laid out in whatever you are reading
[03:04] <boss_mc> poseidon: mpd, banshee, xmms, rhythmbox, totem, vlc, mplayer, quod libet...
[03:04] <TheNovice> boss_mc: help !! hibernation doesnt work
[03:04] <Kruger> k
[03:04] <Priswell> I'll try that again. . .thx for responding.
[03:04]  * IamSOG is wondering if softwares for KDE and Genome will run on Xfce ?
[03:04] <what_if> andrewfree: did you get the prompt to enter the mysql root password ??
[03:04] <th0r> Kruger: if you have skipped things or moved them, the command might not work
[03:04] <andrewfree> what_if:  yep with that blue screen and all, I did that.
[03:04] <what_if> IamSOG: yes, with QT and GTK libs installed
[03:04] <RHorse> Priswell np,  also the -phigh option mebbe
[03:04] <raevol> hey all. in synaptic under status, i have a section called "Installed (local or obsolete)". what is that for?
[03:04] <boss_mc> TheNovice: you using proprietary graphics drivers?
[03:05] <burvowski> If I went and downloaded and installed Crunchbang, it'd be based on ubuntu 8.10 and not 9.04, correct?
[03:05] <IamSOG> I see, thanks what_if because I saw quit a few here for them
[03:05] <fryguy--> PCTeacher012: i have no idea what you are asking since you hit enter every 3 seconds, try asking a question in a single statement
[03:05] <iam_techno> PCTeacher012, point of clarification. The hdd is already split and you have one partition that already has XP on it and the other is blank and you want to install Ubuntu on it?
[03:05] <TheNovice> boss_mc: no, ubuntu nvidia drivers
[03:05] <Kruger> th0r: is this supposed to be all on same line or on two I can't tell
[03:05] <Kruger> sudo ../../b43-fwcutter-011/b43-fwcutter -w "$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR" wl_apsta_mimo.o
[03:05] <boss_mc> TheNovice: nv or nVidia?
[03:05] <Priswell> But I can't see what I'm typing. I'm blind. Even when I drop down to the console, I can't scroll down.
[03:05] <geirha> ldiamond: Might be it's unable to connect to the dbus when connected through ssh
[03:05] <th0r> Kruger: all the same line
[03:05] <TheNovice> boss_mc: i select the drivers that the hardware detector uses
[03:06] <Priswell> I mean, I'm not physically blind, but I can't see due to it not scrolling.
[03:06] <TheNovice> boss_mc: it is nvidias propietary i think
[03:06] <Goldfisch> My system is now running 9.04, and I hear both channels coming out on the left side only. Sound card -> Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation nForce2 AC97 Audio Controler (MCP) (rev a1)
[03:06] <boss_mc> TheNovice: then you're using proprietary
[03:06] <PCTeacher012> iam_techno, no i have not done anything to the partition, the only partition is dev_1 which is XP. It wont let me edit the size, only delete the partition or change type, which i do not want to do unless forced to
[03:06] <what_if> andrewfree: what is you run mysqld --verbose. Any better erros ?
[03:06] <Goldfisch> I checked google, and can't seem to narrow down any reported bugs (yet).
[03:06] <what_if> andrewfree: rather, errors that are easier to troubleshoot ?
[03:06] <Shivam> anyone good with GIMP? I need to know how to take 1-2 pixels off a render?
[03:06] <RHorse> Priswell sounds like the framebuffer  is off
[03:06] <fryguy--> Shivam: #gimp
[03:07] <Priswell> RHorse: How can I fix that?
[03:07] <boss_mc> TheNovice: proprietary drivers + hibernate = shaky at best
[03:07] <Kruger> th0r: woa! I just did that and it extracted 50 things
[03:07] <Shivam> yes i know fryguy, no one ever there to answer
[03:07] <RHorse> Priswell can you get the boot (grub) menu ok?
[03:07] <Shivam> i always ask here and always get hte answers
[03:07] <geirha> ldiamond: Run, "echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" locally, then in the ssh-session, do "export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=<the-output-from-prev-cmd>" Does it work after that?
[03:07] <Goldfisch> Correction: Using pulse audio's volume control, I split left and right, and turned the volume of each, verifiying only the left channel is coming through. Right channel isn't being played.
[03:07] <TheNovice> boss_mc: ok changing to NV..
[03:07] <iam_techno> PCTeacher012, ok I got it. I have heard of resizing after install but never installed tried it. I have a dual boot ubuntu/win 7 system
[03:07] <fryguy> Shivam: that doesn't make this an appropriate place to ask
[03:07] <Priswell> RHorse: I've never tried doing that.
[03:07] <ae88925> starting with jaunty, network manager doesn't try to connect to my wireless for about 30 seconds.  This didn't happen in Gutsy, Hardy, or Intrepid.  What's the deal?
[03:07] <th0r> Kruger: never done fwcutter....don't know what to expect
[03:08] <Wasser> hi. i have a problem with dual boot
[03:08] <gartral> would someone be so kind as to pm me my join block?
[03:08] <Kruger> th0r: yea well that's all the steps that I had to do.  I don't know if my firmware is upgraded still or not...
[03:08] <Wasser> can someone help me?
[03:08] <Priswell> RHorse: Assuming that I can do that, what do I adjust?
[03:08] <fryguy> !ask | Wasser
[03:08] <PCTeacher012> iam_techno, so i can not resize during install? If i can not, then i wil lremove windows, which i do not want to do really
[03:08] <iam_techno> Shivam, try the #gimp channel, if there is one
[03:08] <fryguy> PCTeacher012: use gparted if you want to resize
[03:08] <Kruger> th0r:I guess if my wireless card starts working I'll know? lol
[03:08] <iam_techno> PCTeacher012, No, as far as I know
[03:09] <th0r> Kruger: well...if it didn't work it should have given you a rather obvious error indication
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> Kruger: what wireless card is it?
[03:09] <RHorse> Priswell I believe there is a failsafe mode
[03:09] <poseidon> What do I need to do again to get mp3's to play well?
[03:09] <Kruger> IndyGunFreak: its BCM4306 14e4:4320 rev 03
[03:09] <PCTeacher012> fryguy, i am opening it
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> ah... dreaded broadcom
[03:09] <Kruger> yea :(
[03:09] <iam_techno> poseidon, define 'well'
[03:10] <TheNovice> boss_mc: to switch from Nvidia , i need to change the ,  load from GLX to NV ?
[03:10] <Goldfisch> Any ideas?
[03:10] <Kruger> IndygunFreak: on friday I tried ndiswrapper + windows drivers. then I was told to try upgrading firmware with fwcutter which is what I'm trying to do now
[03:10] <Kruger> I love Ubuntu but without internet what's the point hehe
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Kruger: my understanding, thats the way to go.
[03:10] <PCTeacher012> fryguy: Windows XP has a Exclamation mark by it and will not fix, should i just remove it?
[03:10] <RHorse> Priswell ck  out: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer#grub
[03:10] <fryguy> Kruger: probably worth it to just go out and buy a wireless device that has native linux support
[03:10] <fryguy> PCTeacher012: probably not
[03:11] <andrewfree> what_if: http://pastebin.com/m4cbffbea3f6d8e22
[03:11] <boss_mc> TheNovice: do you really need hibernation, nVidia is much better than nv
[03:11] <Wasser> ok. i'm newbie, and the thing is the following: i installed windows after ubuntu 9.04 and i lost the dual boot. following the documentation i tried to reinstall https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows butit can't find the file. i'm sure the file exists because i can search it manually, but if i try to find it using the grub interface or force to install it, it doesnt find the file stage1
[03:11] <PCTeacher012> fryguy: I am cutting in half
[03:11] <andrewfree> what_if:  sorry bad link  http://pastebin.com/m3f6d8e22
[03:11] <TheNovice> boss_mc: yeah, its a laptop.... i have dozens of documents open....
[03:11] <chriswr> is there anything like a task manager in ubuntu like in windows?
[03:11] <what_if> TheNovice: i got hibernate/unhibernate working with Nvidia driver, but the time it takes to turn back on is about the same as rebooting BC the nvidia driver takes a little bit to start video again....
[03:11] <fryguy> PCTeacher012: how are the drive partitions currently laid out
[03:12] <damien_> Hello! Has anyone figured out how to install older ATI gfx
[03:12] <damien_>           cards on Ubuntu 9.04 yet?
[03:12] <ldiamond> geirha, yes, it works, but how am I supposed to get the dbus info via SSH?
[03:12] <th0r> chriswr: you can list the running processes in a terminal with ps ax
[03:12] <Kruger> does it mean I'm a n00b if I'm excited to put the cube desktop and compiz fusion effects on Ubuntu lol
[03:12] <iam_techno> Wasser, personally unless there is anything super import on your 9.04 partition, just reinstall it
[03:12] <what_if> andrewfree: ahhh, do a "sudo killall mysqld"
[03:12] <PCTeacher012> partition:/dev/sda1 filesystem: ntfs size: 55.9 GiB Used: --- Unused: --- Flags: boot
[03:12] <boss_mc> chriswr: gnome-system-monitor
[03:12] <TheNovice> what_if: the problem i have is that when shutdown.... the screen goes pink.... and hangs there
[03:12] <fryguy> Kruger: yes
[03:12] <ae88925> Has anyone else experienced network-manager delayed connections to wireless on jaunty?
[03:13] <boss_mc> damien_: it's not possible without downgrading X (not fun at all, and will probably cause limitless problems)
[03:13] <PCTeacher012> fryguy: partition:/dev/sda1 filesystem: ntfs size: 55.9 GiB Used: --- Unused: --- Flags: boot
[03:13] <fryguy> ae88925: yep
[03:13] <Kruger> fryguy: I'm going to make fire effects when I close and open windows!
[03:13] <Wasser> iam_techno: ok, but then I would have to reconfigure everything (not that it's much=P)
[03:13] <chriswr> allright , thnx
[03:13] <what_if> TheNovice:  never even heard of that.... curious though. Not sure I can help ...
[03:13] <Kruger> I wonder if my 8400 graphics card can even handle that
[03:13] <damien_> boss_mc, damn that really sucks..
[03:13] <fryguy> Kruger: yep
[03:13] <fryguy> Kruger: or you can spend your time getting a more efficient, more usable desktop rather than "cool effects"
[03:13] <kickagirl> hi every1, im kind new to ubuntu, since a installed jaunty 9.04, i cant connect to my wireless connection, but i can see her through the network manager. and she doesnt have password.
[03:13] <RHorse> ae88925 sometimes WICD  works better
[03:14] <boss_mc> damien_: stick with radeon driver or buy a nvidia card... sorry
[03:14] <TheNovice> boss_mc: any way to use hibernation with nvidia drivers?
[03:14] <ae88925> fryguy: Is there any way to reduce the delay?  They worked so hard to reduce boot time. Now instead of waiting for boot, I'm waiting for NetworkManager.
[03:14] <clepto> ok got a problem trying to install ubuntu on my desktop my desktop has vista already installed on it so i added a hard drive to my desktop and installed ubuntu on it without modifying the vista partitions on my other two drives. now i boot up and it goes straight to vista. when i tried changinhg the boot order of the hard said it was a non systems disk... any help?
[03:14] <fryguy> ae88925: no idea
[03:14] <PCTeacher012> fryguy: partition:/dev/sda1 filesystem: ntfs size: 55.9 GiB Used: --- Unused: --- Flags: boot is how it is laid out
[03:14] <sebsebseb> kickagirl: your wireless connection is a she?
[03:14] <fryguy> PCTeacher012: and that's the only partition?
[03:14] <sebsebseb> !wireless | kickagirl
[03:14] <Kruger> fryguy: I don't think I'd notice 2 seconds in improved performance when I'm sending emails and browsing websites
[03:14] <boss_mc> TheNovice: no idea, I don't use it, I just know it's flaky
[03:14] <damien_> boss_mc, i got an x800 :(
[03:14] <fryguy> Kruger: i wasn't talking about performance
[03:14] <NimbleRabit> I can't access my SMB share from my windows system, it says it's not accessible and "The paramter is incorrect."  Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this?
[03:14] <PCTeacher012> fryguy: yes, and it will not let me resize it even in GParted
[03:14] <iam_techno> Wasser, the only other route is to find something that allows you to mess around with NTLDR, which is 10x harder to do and is out of my expertise.
[03:14] <fryguy> Kruger: i was talking about efficiency and usability.  if i was talking about performance i would have said performance
[03:14] <boss_mc> damien_: too old
[03:15] <geirha> ldiamond: dbus is a bit of a mystery to me I'm afraid. You could try asking in #dbus
[03:15] <andrewfree> what_if:  nothing was running :/
[03:15] <fryguy> PCTeacher012: boot to windows and run scandisk then, ntfs partition is probably messed up
[03:15] <damien_> boss_mc, I tryed to edit the xorg.conf to use "ati" drivers. No sucsses..
[03:15] <fryguy> PCTeacher012: or it's mounted and locked
[03:15] <Kruger> fryguy: you just threw a lot of words at my face
[03:15] <PCTeacher012> fryguy: okay, i dont think it is mounted... how can i check?
[03:15] <fryguy> PCTeacher012: mount
[03:15] <what_if> andrewfree: run "netstat -ln | grep 3306" that will tell you if something is taking you mysql port
[03:15] <Wasser> iam_techno: ok, as i assume (pretty much correctly) that you far more than me. I guess I will stick with reinstalling :(. but any ideas why it can't find the file?
[03:15] <TheNovice> boss_mc: thanks bro
[03:16] <ldiamond> geirha, thank you anyways, at least you found out what the problem is. I doubt I would have found that :p
[03:16] <what_if> andrewfree: if nothing is returned, the port is free .
[03:16] <iam_techno> PCTeacher012, Just backup important files and wipe the hdd clean, partition it, install XP, then ubuntu. Unless you want to try Wubi, I think its called.
[03:16] <iam_techno> !wubi
[03:16] <Wasser> iam_techno:*that you know
[03:16] <TheNovice> anyone knows how to make work the hibernation with nvidia drivers?
[03:16] <PCTeacher012> no it is not mounted im restarting and fixing
[03:17] <iam_techno> Wasser, which file again?  Im out for a smoke, but ill try that as soon ill gets back :)
[03:19] <geirha> ldiamond: You can find it in the environment of nautilus, but there must be a better way than that. cat /proc/`pidof nautilus`/environ | tr '\0' '\n'
[03:19] <Venport> Anyone know a safe torrent to download xubuntu? the xubuntu site is downloading slow, i was thinking a torrent might be better.
[03:19] <Wasser> iam_techno: the file is stage1. I can't find it using the find command in grub, and when i try to install grub it complains it can't find it either, but if I search it with the file browser, I can find it where it's supposed to be.
[03:19] <andrewfree> what_if:  Yep it returned nothing
[03:19] <ozzmosis> Venport: if you already have ubuntu installed you can just do apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[03:20] <fryguy> Wasser: are you sure you are following the directions exactly?
[03:20] <Venport> Ozzmosis, i have 7.10 installed (because of bad advice) so the apt-get does not seem to work...
[03:20] <svensko> can anyone confirm that video works in skype in ubuntu 9.04?
[03:20] <Wasser> fryguy: actually, the first one fails already, cause the first thing to do is use the find command in grub, and grub doesnt find anything, even though the file is where it's supposed to be
[03:21] <ozzmosis> Venport: ah, maybe not in 7.10
[03:21] <fryguy> Wasser: link to the wiki page you are using?
[03:21] <clepto> ozzmosis: couldnt he use apt-get upgrade?
[03:21] <Wasser> fryguy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows and others have similar steps. I'm sure the boot folder is in partition hd0,6
[03:21] <ozzmosis> clepto: dist-upgrade to 9.04?  would take a while and might break a few things :)
[03:22] <iam_techno> Wasser, as far as finding that file, I went through the same thing except it was with stage1.5. After spending a good three days trying to figure out how to get it back I just reinstalled. I was using 8.10 at the time.
[03:22] <what_if> andrewfree: so, why can mysqld not bind to port 3306? Hmmm...   that is odd
[03:22] <clepto> ozzmosis: heh yeah probably
[03:22] <vock> Just a question about reinstalling ubuntu: I made a separate /home, so when I reinstall, i'll still have all my documents, but will have to redo all my settings and programs right?
[03:22] <ozzmosis> vock: no
[03:23] <raevol> if i have an icon i want to use for a .desktop entry in the menu, where should i put it so i can use it?
[03:23] <fryguy> vock: your home directory stores (almost) all of your settings for all of your programs
[03:23] <ozzmosis> vock: gnome settings are kept under $HOME
[03:23] <what_if> andrewfree: what address is mysqld trying to assign in the config? it is normally <IP_ADDRESS>.
[03:23] <RHorse> vock though /etc and /usr/share have some settings you'll have to redoo
[03:23] <ozzmosis> vock: there will only be a couple of things like /etc/apt/sources.list that might need redoing
[03:24] <fryguy> Wasser: if hyou are sure of that, then just run that root command and ignore the find commands then
[03:24] <geirha> raevol: .local/share/icons   or /usr/local/share/icons if all users should be able to use it
[03:24] <Wasser> fryguy: that's what i did. the root command works fine, but the next step, setup(hd0) fails saying it can't find the file...
[03:24] <vock> RHorse, ozzmosis,fryguy: thanks, so if i just copy my /etc/ folder i should be okay?
[03:25] <raevol> geirha: thanks
[03:25] <RHorse> vock I hv regular backups of /home /etc and /var
[03:25] <vock> perfect, thanks
[03:25] <richfrog1> hello
[03:25] <fryguy> Wasser: did you run grub as root
[03:25] <Wasser> fryguy: i used sudo -i
[03:26] <jrdave> hi guys, whats the best VRML 2.0 viewer under ubuntu?
[03:26] <ozzmosis> vock: probably yes
[03:26] <andrewfree> what_if:  yea idk, it dont think its configured right or something.
[03:26] <what_if> andrewfree: you can maually assign an address with "sudo mysqld --bind-address=<IP_ADDRESS>" or if the DB is local machine only "sudo mysqld --skip-networking"
[03:26] <fryguy> Wasser: why aren't you following the directions exactly like the wiki
[03:26] <audigy7x> this is my first time in here
[03:26] <richfrog1> I added a program called "Playonlinux" to my computer and when I start it up it says "You do not have 3d acceleration enabled"
[03:26] <richfrog1> How do I enable it? Xubuntu 9.04
[03:26] <Wasser> fryguy: i tried it that way too and didn't work, thats why i tried this way
[03:27] <audigy7x> I just installed ubuntu 9.04 today
[03:27] <andrewfree> what_if:  Yea its local db only it looks like its doing something no errors yet.
[03:27] <fryguy> Wasser: because i get the exact same behavior as you when running grub as a non-priviledged user, and it works as the wiki documents when running as root, so I would make sure i was actually running as root if i were you
[03:28] <owen1> can i tell firefox to open tabs zoomed-in?
[03:28] <jhonnyboy> Hello everyone, i just finished installing my web server sucessfully, but how can i log into it to use ftp to update files from another computer??
[03:28] <fryguy> jhonnyboy: ssh is the standard recommendation
[03:28] <ozzmosis> jhonnyboy: you might want to consider using SCP instead
[03:28] <fryguy> openssh-server
[03:28] <richfrog1> how do i enable 3d acceleration in xubuntu 9.04?
[03:29] <jhonnyboy> So i can't log in using ftp?
[03:29] <jhonnyboy> do i have to use SSH or SCP instead?
[03:29] <fryguy> richfrog1: enable, configure, or install the proper driver for your video card
[03:29] <what_if> andrewfree: so mysql started on <IP_ADDRESS>? ?
[03:29] <fryguy> jhonnyboy: you don't have to, but it's going to be faster, easier, and more secure
[03:29] <nickrud> jhonnyboy, you could install an ftp server, but ssh is more secure, and most ftp clients will use ssh
[03:29] <Wasser> fryguy: i just tried it again and nothing. the thing is that before installing windows, i tried to find the file using the grub interface and all (all the steps except setup (hd0), just for testing purposes) and it worked fine, now from the livecd, it doesn't work
[03:29] <jhonnyboy> how can i set up ssh then?
[03:29] <RHorse> jhonnyboy put a ssh or ftp server on it
[03:29] <what_if> andrewfree: so mysql started on <IP_ADDRESS>? ?
[03:29] <fryguy> jhonnyboy: install openssh-server
[03:29] <nickrud> !ssh
[03:30] <richfrog1> ati radeon express 200?
[03:30] <ozzmosis> jhonnyboy: apt-get install openssh-server
[03:30] <jhonnyboy> fryguy: then i have to configure it?
[03:30] <fryguy> jhonnyboy: no
[03:30] <ozzmosis> jhonnyboy: it's preconfigured
[03:30] <audigy7x> yeah I what to set up a ssh server to for pentest resons
[03:30] <boss_mc> how do I start a plain X session in alt+ctrl+f2
[03:30] <ykphuah> putty can be found on the standard repo as well, no need to download manually.
[03:30] <RHorse> what are some good front ends for scp? mc?
