[12:01] <Marfi> younghacker, you can open it with archiver and see what happens
[12:01] <younghacker> hmm,,, not sure lol the point of me doing this is to forensics using autopsy and find out
[12:01] <younghacker> hmm
[12:01] <liquiddoom> b^j: Hmm... I'll just go with something like dd
[12:01] <b^j> ahhh
[12:01] <b^j> younghacker, its actaully super easy
[12:01] <younghacker> really?
[12:02] <b^j> younghacker, oh yeah, you doing this for a class or for fun?
[12:02] <liquiddoom> b^j: Although, it seems it would go recursive... backing up to /media/sdb1
[12:02] <Eric_Jardas> Is there anyone here that know to write sh scripts and is willing to help me ?
[12:02] <younghacker> class & fun my major is networking but im heavily into security and forensics
[12:03] <younghacker> but the file is on an ftp site online it's a part of a tutorial for using autopsy
[12:03] <b^j> younghacker, you should be able to mount it with a loop file system, also you can point fdisk at it just as if it were a dev
[12:03] <younghacker> hmm
[12:03] <younghacker> and will it be intact?
[12:03] <b^j> younghacker, should be
[12:03] <younghacker> cool
[12:03] <younghacker> thanks!!!
[12:03] <b^j> younghacker, i do some forensics with work
[12:04] <b^j> younghacker, and i did a bunch of this in the defcon ctf quals
[12:04] <younghacker> wow
[12:04] <younghacker> thats super cool,,, do u have any suggestions, groups, sites,, software (free)
[12:05] <eggs> every time my 7.04 starts up it has "failed" next to drivers... what does that mean ?
[12:05] <kitsun> hey, is there anyway I can associate a filetype with a program? ive been wanting to have .rm files load into realplayer instead of whatever the default it.
[12:05] <b^j> younghacker, autopsy rocks, it has good list.  the fulldisclosure and security focus lists have good info
[12:05] <Marfi> i second that from younghacker
[12:06] <b^j> younghacker, milw0rm has good info on vulns
[12:06] <b^j> well i gotta catch a bus, catch you all later
[12:06] <Marfi> later
[12:07] <younghacker> cool lemme notate,,,
[12:07] <hendrixski> I reformatted my computer.. and I had a GPG key.... how can I retrieve it?
[12:07] <younghacker> now i attempted to load the file system into autopsy directly from my HDD but autopsy did not recognize the file
[12:07] <Eric_Jardas> How can I run a program that asks for input, and set the input in one command ?
[12:08] <younghacker> is it because it wasn't a partition or drive ?
[12:08] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, if you're running it from command line, then just add the input after the command and it'll treat it as input
[12:08] <quinton_> Can someone help me change the boot splash screen?
[12:09] <Eric_Jardas> hendrixski, it doesn't work
[12:09] <eggs> is envy bad ?
[12:09] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, for example.. if the program wants you to input a file... but it has an option like myProgram -f filename then it'll run already having taken that input
[12:09] <foey> Can anyone help me. I used to run Linux on my second rig, Sempron 2800+, 512mb of ram, 9700pro graphics card. Ive just recently upgraded the processor, now ubuntu 7.04 keeps locking. Hard locking, I have to reboot. Now if I take a stick of ram out, it works fine, no matter what stick it is it will run on 256mb no problem. both sticks are 2700 Kingston. windows xp works perfectly with both...
[12:09] <foey> ...sticks. Help.
[12:09] <foey> ...processor upgraded to is a A64 3000+
[12:09] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, you may have to read the manual for that program to see how to pass it those paramaters from command line.... the command for the manual is man... so "man myprogram"
[12:09] <nodge> hey there... anyone got wikipediafs version 3.0 running?
[12:10] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, and not all programs have that kind of option... sometimes programmers are lazy
[12:10] <demonspork> does anyone know how I could get a program, namely "sudo -u bobthebuilder vncserver -httport 666 :29" to run on system startup?
[12:10] <eggs> !envy
[12:10] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[12:10] <andrewkk> whoa. i just booted from my install cd and instead of going to the usual installation menu there's just this box listing... some kind of low-level hardware addresses? wth?
[12:10] <hendrixski> !man | Eric_Jardas
[12:10] <ubotu> Eric_Jardas: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[12:11] <andrewkk> anyone ever seen that before?
[12:11] <NickGH> hey - anyone here use thunderbird with IMAP? really need some advice...
[12:11] <Shimfs> hi all
[12:11] <knubbe> is it possible to forward multiple ports via ssh?
[12:12] <Eric_Jardas> hendrixski, it doesn't have a manual, and it doesn't have that option. wehn i run the program it waits for input from keyboard, what i would like to do is automaticlly echo what i want to input in the command
[12:12] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, then.... you may not me able to :-(
[12:12] <Shimfs> i got a little problem, i have just installed ubuntu Studio (i know studio is not the real ubuntu) and i have a ATI 200m express card. and it has some problems (which i exprected)
[12:12] <Shimfs> i cant start x
[12:12] <Eric_Jardas> hendrixski, isn't there a command to echo it or something
[12:12] <Shimfs> so i found a guide, but that guide assume i have a visual ubuntu
[12:13] <quinton_> Can anyone help me install boot screen theme?
[12:13] <NickGH> ... i've just lost all my tags.. :(
[12:13] <demonspork> shimfs, what error messages show up when you try to boot?
[12:13] <foey> #
[12:13] <Shimfs> demonspork, 2 sec, let me try again
[12:13] <hendrixski> Eric_Jardas, it depends on the program. usually it'll have a man file that tells you the different parameters you can pass it before it even starts running
[12:14] <heffo> mike, that wasnt very friendly
[12:14] <Recon69> help, my gnome desktop is very bonked

[12:22] <Sonicadvance1> :D
[12:22] <demon_spork> shimfs, I know more about troubleshooting with nvidia cards than ATI, I am not sure I will be of any more help
[12:22] <Shimfs> demon_spork, ok :)
[12:22] <matttttttttt> But see I removed XP
[12:22] <aroo> matttttttttt: gparted, qtparted

[12:23] <KuDeTa> anydoes anybody know about install ubuntu-desktop on the server version
[12:23] <KuDeTa> is it wise?
[12:23] <john> thanks guys... i just delete the bad kernels from the /boot folder and ran update-grub
[12:23] <Matt544> So now when I try to install XP it says "Cannot find hard drive"
[12:24] <KuDeTa> im using a remote server
[12:24] <KuDeTa> it would be nice to see the gui sometimes
[12:24] <KuDeTa> then i can do remote connection rightt?
[12:24] <joshritger> I am trying to set up samba through the graphical interface for shared folders and I can see the share from my windows box, but it keeps asking me for a password. How do I get rid of this
[12:24] <pike_> KuDeTa: you want the full desktop with open office and all that stuff? or just a gui?
[12:25] <KuDeTa> probably just simply gui
[12:25] <Recon69> anyone got any idea what might have happened to my desktop?
[12:25] <KuDeTa> there is some kind of gnome minimal install right?
[12:25] <Shimfs> demon_spork, do you know how i enter the xorg.conf and switch the choose vesa instead of ATI (i ahve read it works)
[12:25] <KuDeTa> thing is someone told me it could be unstable and screw arround with everything
[12:25] <KuDeTa> i don't wanna mess it up

[12:27] <avalon> Recon69: is there any way to test rather it's still functional within linux?
[12:27] <Shimfs> demon_spork, thanks
[12:28] <foey> Guys, any reason for Ubuntu installer to lock half way through copying files?
[12:28] <Shimfs> demon_spork, hmm just says its a new directory
[12:28] <Recon69> avalon: not that i know of, my clue was it stopped working in windows too
[12:28] <foey> >> its stuck on 41%
[12:28] <liquiddoom> hendrixski: Sadly, I don't think you're getting that back
[12:28] <demon_spork> shimfs, make sure you keep the same case
[12:28] <r0ut1> Synchronicity: yeaH:) nautilus, but it's not for me
[12:28] <Shimfs> demon_spork, ok
[12:28] <demon_spork> shimfs, X11 must be capitalized
[12:28] <avalon> Hmm... well  I don't have windows handy anymore
[12:29] <Shimfs> demon_spork, ahh, thats where my error is, and where my windows noobiness comes in play :P how to exit the new file i made
[12:29] <hendrixski> liquiddoom, so I have to generate a new key per computer???
[12:29] <Kotsios> installing ubuntu 7.04 (dual boot with windows xp sp2), problem right after login screen (blank screen), googled all day but didn't find anything that could help me. First timer, any help appreciated
[12:29] <demon_spork> shimfs, one big difference you will find that almost everything is case sensitive
[12:29] <andrewkk> I booted from the installation CD and got this crazy screen. http://asicreateorder.com/pub/error_070703.jpg What does that mean?
[12:29] <cables> Something messed up APT, and I'm not sure what did. Whenever I try to install anything, I get this error: dpkg: syntax error: unknown user `postfix' in statoverride file
[12:30] <kitche> cables you installed postfix most likely and it didn't add it to your system
[12:30] <kitche> cables: the user that is
[12:30] <cables> kitche, I don't think I installed postfix, maybe it was a dependency of something...
[12:30] <cables> kitche, how would I go about fixing this?
[12:30] <r0ut1> i need a file manager fo gnome (like Krusader fo KDE). Any ideas?
[12:31] <r0bby> now, like i said: anybody have a clue?
[12:31] <sudobash> hey should it be pretty easy to install ubuntu 7.04 on an imac that has osx on it?
[12:31] <r0bby> this channel frustrates me.
[12:31] <cables> kitche, postfix is installed. Should I remove it?
[12:31] <demon_spork> r0bby, why?
[12:32] <cables> r0bby, your omission of "r" at the end of "for" frustrates me. You can use ANY Linux file manager with GNOME, even your favorite KDE one.
[12:32] <kitche> cables: umm you can try but that's your best bet that it didn't add postfix user to your system and apt is complaining about it
[12:32] <Shimfs> how do i enter the "System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager" from the terminal+
[12:32] <cables> kitche, ok.
[12:32] <r0bby> demon_spork: ask a question; never get an answer.

[12:33] <Shimfs> cables, ok
[12:33] <r0bby> I know there are issues with them..
[12:33] <pike_> r0bby: typically what id recommend is an lspci -v to see the soundcard chipset and then searching ubuntuforums.org for that sound card
[12:33] <Shimfs> cables, during the installation i was not given the oppotunity to choose a root password
[12:34] <Shimfs> cables, what is the default password then?
[12:34] <cables> Shimfs, there is no root password
[12:34] <cables> Shimfs, use sudo to run anything as root

[12:34] <hendrixski> is there a program by which I can search for people and find their public GPG keys?
[12:34] <r0bby> I used alsaconf, it recognized the card; allowed me to configure it; then just didn't work period.
[12:34] <Recon69> mhh, as my gnome is messed up in 6.06 maybe I sould upgrade to 7.04
[12:34] <Shimfs> cables, ok but what if i need to enter root? i said root as user name and did not type anything in password and it says its wrogn
[12:34] <sudobash> someone knows im sure
[12:34] <r0bby> trust me, I googled.
[12:34] <cables> sudobash, quit repeating.
[12:34] <wday> What package contains the man pages for things like malloc, memset, memcpy?
[12:35] <cables> hendrixski, < sudo aptitude install seahorse >
[12:35] <demon_spork> shimfs, by default you can't log in as root
[12:35] <hendrixski> cables, I'll give seahorse a try... thanks
[12:35] <r0ut1> :\
[12:35] <cables> Shimfs, to run anything as root, just use sudo <command> or type sudo -i to enter a root prompt. You can't log in a root without defeating the security features Ubuntu provides.
[12:35] <wday> nm, go ubuntu forums
[12:35] <demon_spork> just use "sudo <command>" to run thins as root
[12:35] <Miranda32> is it possible to recover data has already been overwritten?

[12:36] <Shimfs> cables, ok but all the guides i read on the net where i need to use that manager (so i can get X to work) i have to select something, and apparently i cant in X
[12:37] <Recon69> avalon : I would suggest you pop out the DVD drive and try it in a different computer, easy way to find out if the lazer is toast
[12:37] <cables> Shimfs, if X is broken, you can't use restricted-manager to fix it because that is an application that runs in X. You'll need to figure out what the problem is, and fix it with the command line.

[12:38] <Miranda32> HEre is the dumb story. I moved a folder from D to C, then I accidentally banned all accounts from login in, then I reinstalled and forgot to moved that folder from C back to D (I could have reinstalled without formatting, but I forgot). Then I recovered that folder from D to C using recovery my files, but most files were corrupted
[12:38] <cables> Shimfs, so, what's the problem?
[12:38] <Kotsios> how to edit the xorg.conf halfway through the installation process?
[12:38] <CalJohn> By default, does ubuntu automagically setup grub to take account of a windowsxp partition?  How do I get it to do that again now I've added a windows drive to the machine?
[12:38] <cables> Kotsios, why would you want to do that?
[12:38] <Shimfs> cables, when i start ubuntustudio, it says x could not be loaded and then it ask me if i want to see a detailed explanation
[12:39] <pike_> Kotsios: youll have to restart x for it to take affect
[12:39] <cables> CalJohn, it will automatically set up Grub so you can boot into both Windows and Linux.
[12:39] <Kotsios> because i have a problem (installation freezes) and looks like it's my ati graphics card's fault
[12:39] <smultron> when i'm trying to set up Zimbra, it keeps asking me for a "logical hostname"... what's that?
[12:39] <cables> Shimfs, I'm not sure why that's happening, and can't really help you.
[12:39] <cables> Sorry
[12:39] <Shimfs> cables, np
[12:39] <CalJohn> cables: that's exactly what I want.  How do I do it now ubuntu is installed?
[12:40] <Kotsios> hm some help on how-to because i'm completely new (i have to actually install it to get some experience)
[12:40] <cables> CalJohn, so you installed Windows when Ubuntu was installed?
[12:40] <bulmer> anyone have any recommended ATSC (hdtv) and FTA (free to air) cards that works on ubuntu? kindly say a lil bit about it?
[12:40] <CalJohn> cables: kinda.  I installed ubuntu without the windows drive in the machine.
[12:40] <Shimfs> cables, how to set up X?
[12:40] <Shimfs> cables, like, how to open up the file
[12:40] <Shimfs> demon_spork, what was the path for xorg.conf again?
[12:40] <cables> Shimfs, the file is /etc/X11/xorg.conf, although if you don't know that you're not going to be able to set it up.
[12:40] <r0bby> crimsun_: when you're around could you privmsg or highlight please. Thanks.
[12:40] <cables> Shimfs, you'll probably need help from here.
[12:41] <pike_> Kotsios: alt-ctrl-f2  then login then type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg    select vesa as your driver and defaults for everything else. then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart  or alt-f7 and then alt-ctrl-backspace
[12:41] <Shimfs> cables, i will try
[12:41] <pike_> Kotsios: remember alt-f7 gets ya back to x screen
[12:41] <Shimfs> cables, permission denied even though im in sudo -i mode :S
[12:41] <cables> CalJohn, can't you select which drive to boot off of in your BIOS? If you want to set up Grub again, follow the guide from Ubotu:
[12:41] <cables> !grub | CalJohn
[12:41] <ubotu> CalJohn: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[12:41] <CalJohn> cables: I can, but grub is better.
[12:42] <cables> CalJohn, I have no experience using Grub with multiple HDs, so see if the guide from Ubotu is any help.
[12:42] <Kotsios> pike_, can we talk in private please?
[12:42] <cables> Kotsios, you need to register first
[12:42] <cables> !register | Kotsios
[12:42] <ubotu> Kotsios: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[12:42] <pike_> Kotsios: /join #pike_
[12:43] <Fedman> This is a bit weird but. Does anyone knows how can I change the skin of the win apps that I run from wine so that they match ubuntu's color?
[12:43] <hexidigital> hello folks... i have a problem (?) with lm-sensors... under dapper with the server kernel, lm-sensors reported 50C as a high temp for my CPU, however after an edgy fresh install, still with the server kernel, it reports 127C as the high... should this be a concern to me?
[12:43] <cables> that works too :)
[12:43] <servlsuserls> i am back again
[12:43] <Edzhjus> ok..anyone can give me java install file link for Ubuntu 6.6?
[12:43] <cables> Fedman, no, sorry
[12:43] <cables> Edzhjus, no need for that. Just run this command: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin
[12:43] <Kotsios> !register Kotsios
[12:43] <Edzhjus> oh
[12:43] <cables> Edzhjus, or if you don't want the plugin and only want the JRE, use: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre
[12:43] <Edzhjus> i writed just java
[12:44] <bia> hello everybody
[12:44] <InHisName> hello bia
[12:44] <cables> !register > Kotsios (please see the PM from Ubotu)
[12:44] <rustalot> how do i delete a launchpad specification I made?
[12:44] <servlsuserls> helllo
[12:45] <bia> I just upgraded manually from ubuntu 5.10 to 6.06, but something seems to be wrong as I can upgrade to a more recent version... any help?
[12:45] <Matt544> How do I erase my hard drive?
[12:45] <_nnx_> My upgrade from Edgy to Feisty went well, but every so often something goes completely haywire, X.org stops responding and crashes, CPU usage goes through the roof for programs that SHOULD be terminated (i.e. Firefox from the old X.org session, bash, init), other progrmas die (i.e. cron, gdm keeps restarting itself), and often I have to reboot.  Any ideas?  I'm completely out.
[12:46] <dt1> i just installed sun-java6 sun-ja6-plugin sun-java6-fonts but when i type java in the terminal i still get gjc, why?
[12:46] <cables> Matt544, securely?
[12:46] <Matt544> What does that mean
[12:46] <cables> Matt544, as in, you don't want the data to be recoverable?
[12:46] <Shimfs> cables, i have found something promising while reconfiguring X
[12:46] <bulmer> Matt544: different ways, from rm to partitioning it
[12:46] <InHisName> I just installed 7.04 and messed it up already. Didn't do 5.10 or 5.06, bia
[12:46] <_nnx_> At least once a day or so, to be specific.
[12:46] <Matt544> No I just want to delete EVERYTHING so I can load Xp back on
[12:46] <JDStone> when I sync to my local NTP server, I receive: ntpdate[26890] : no server suitable for synchronization found
[12:46] <bia> when running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade I get "The following packages have been kept back:  gnome-cups-manager python-netcdf"
[12:46] <cables> Matt544, You can reformat it or delete all the files if you just want them gone, but if you want it to be immune from data recovery attempts, you need to use something like Darik's Boot and Nuke
[12:46] <ccollander> XP!!!
[12:46] <cables> Matt544, no need to delete everything
[12:47] <cables> Matt544, just use the XP installer and it'll delete everything for you.
[12:47] <Shimfs> cables, a synaptic touch pad, is that eiter input/mice psaux, ttyS0, tts0 or gpmdata ?
[12:47] <bia> InHisName, I see
[12:47] <Matt544> Cables can you Private chat me
[12:47] <Matt544> please
[12:47] <cables> Shimfs, i have no idea
[12:47] <Shimfs> cables, ok
[12:47] <Matt544> Nobody has helped me yet
[12:47] <tapas> hmm
[12:47] <tapas> i wonder how i can make gcc-3.4 the default
[12:47] <d4rkmonkey> Matt544, ?
[12:47] <bia> I'll check the website again, mut be something in my config files (I had modified them by hand)
[12:48] <servlsuserls> how do i change my name
[12:48] <Matt544> I dont mean just this moment but over the amount of time i have been trying to fic this
[12:48] <tapas> th egalternatives doesn't seem to offer mwe all installed versins of gcc
[12:48] <cables> Matt544, what do you want?  Am I missing something?
[12:49] <tgelter> hey all, how can I do some sort of system restore of the ubuntu system? I've managed to make it so I don't have icons on several programs, broken java, and made it so that I can't get vmware to come up, no matter how many times I try to reconfigure/reinstall it
[12:49] <cables> Edzhjus, go to skype.com and download the Debian package.
[12:49] <KuDeTa> anyone know about installing gui on an ubuntu server (remote) is it safe
[12:49] <Matt544> I press enter and it cannot find hard drive
[12:49] <Matt544> That is my problem
[12:49] <pike_> KuDeTa: im in #pike_ right now :)  justa sec
[12:49] <Edzhjus> debian? oh yes..right..forgot.. :)
[12:50] <cables> Matt544, that's an XP problem, not an Ubuntu problem. We can't help you with that here.
[12:50] <Matt544> Ubuntu makes it so windows setup cannot read my hard drive
[12:50] <InHisName> bia, sounds like those were saved and not upgraded? So see if they run. Does your printer work  like before ?  [cups]  . I don't know about netcdf or what it supposed to do.
[12:50] <cables> Matt544, that's not true, it doesn't affect how Windows setup ssk.ees the hard di
[12:50] <Matt544> But you can help me with formatting my HD out of Ubuntu
[12:50] <cables> Matt544, damn, I meant to say that that's not true. Ubuntu can't change how XP setup sees the drive.
[12:50] <bulmer> Matt544: you can possibly use the liveCD to boot and use the diskpartition to format and partition it
[12:50] <briancron> Matt544: I don't think it will help but you can format the disk to FAT32 using the Ubuntu Live CD I think
[12:51] <Matt544> LiveCD ?
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> ...
[12:51] <briancron> The Ubuntu disk
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> Matt544, the CD you used to install
[12:51] <Matt544> I downloaded the .ISO and burned it to a disk
[12:51] <bia> InHisName, I didn't even try printing...
[12:51] <Matt544> is that the same thing?
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> yeah, the live CD...
[12:51] <briancron> yeah that's it
[12:51] <servlsuserls> i wanna change my name but i dunno how
[12:51] <Shimfs> cables, yay i made it work :D
[12:51] <d4rkmonkey> unless you downloaded the alternate
[12:51] <Edzhjus> ok tnx for now
[12:51] <bia> just had these old 5.10 CDs, and was trying to get a newer Ubuntu on this machine
[12:52] <bia> InHisName, if I were less lazy I'd just dload&burn the latest version and install from a CD...
[12:52] <Matt544> I downloaded 7.04 Desktop Edition

[12:54] <OuZo> d4rkmonkey, yes, i am hosting it...
[12:54] <Amaranth> Known trolls
[12:54] <bulmer> logreeval: you can, have two different configuration files like /etc/network/interfaces, renaming one for the other wep enabled router
[12:54] <ibanex> logreeval: okay, i believe you would just hit the floopy disk logo to save a location, then create a new one with different settings and save that as well
[12:54] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, it should just be your IP to connect I believe. I'm not completly sure
[12:54] <logreeval> an, thanks guys!!
[12:55] <logreeval> you guys rock
[12:55] <Mike2> I know I do
[12:55] <logreeval> :P
[12:55] <Mike2> Thanks!!
[12:55] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, you need to have the right ports and everything and you might have to set up port forwarding on your router (not sure how)
[12:55] <PurpZeY> Can someone help me out, my Xchat keeps freezing up, whenever I start it
[12:55] <OuZo> d4rkmonkey, thanks i will try that. do you know how i can turn off all these messages when people log on & off? i am using xchat? thanks
[12:55] <ibanex> PurpZeY: have you tried purging and reinstalling?
[12:55] <patrlck> hi
[12:55] <Matt544> OK I am booting my LiveCD right now
[12:56] <patrlck> My dvd burner is burning very slow. When I reboot it burns the first dvd very fast then when I burn more dvds it gets slow ... anyone have a clue ?
[12:56] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, I don't know if you can turn of those messages.. it would be helpful in this server I guess
[12:56] <PurpZeY> ibanex: Well, no I mean, it works, it has worked...I'm sure a reboot would fix it, but I am wondering what is causing it now
[12:56] <Matt544> There are 6 options
[12:56] <Matt544> Start or Install
[12:56] <bulmer> PurpZeY: you try also using strace to see what libraries it calls and fails
[12:56] <hendrixski> YAY!!! I found my old gpg key...I can't find out how to set it as my default key on this new computer?  anybody know???
[12:56] <Matt544> What do I do at the LiveCD menu?
[12:56] <OuZo> d4rkmonkey, i read about it some where on the xchat site, but cant find it, i asked in #xchat a few hours ago but no one replied
[12:56] <OuZo> thanks thou
[12:56] <sindre> help: With all repos enabled - anyway i can check i got that? or how do i do it?
[12:56] <sn0> press return Matt544 :)
[12:57] <Matt544> On Install?
[12:57] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, sorry, I can do a quick check for you
[12:57] <bulmer> Matt544: let it go through its process of full booting and then mount the hd you want to partition
[12:57] <PurpZeY> bulmer: That is a decent idea...It appears to work, I mean, I see myself connect, and I get identd but then i never get a channel or anything like that, it just "freezes"
[12:57] <OuZo> ok thanks
[12:58] <tgelter> hey all, how can I do some sort of system restore of the ubuntu system? I've managed to make it so I don't have icons on several programs, broken java, and made it so that I can't get vmware to come up, no matter how many times I try to reconfigure/reinstall it
[12:58] <bulmer> PurpZeY: i dont know, am guessing your connection stalls and it just waits there til it times out
[12:58] <d4rkmonkey> OuZo, I think you might need to get a plugin or something to do it...
[12:58] <pi3> how do I disable desktop-effects from bash?
[12:59] <patrlck> isn't there a channel for k3b ? :/
[12:59] <OuZo> d4rkmonkey, ok maybe it was a perl script i saw...
[12:59] <PurpZeY> bulmer: I suppose the best thing to do would be to just reboot...What happened I think was that I tried to connect during a netsplit...then things got all weird
[12:59] <bia> ppl, I need help on upgrading from 5.10... anyone?
[12:59] <bulmer> pi3 whats a desktop-effects from bash? bash creates somekind of graphics?
[12:59] <DeViLs> what software to see PDF in ubuntu
[01:00] <PurpZeY> !upgrade ! bia
[01:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about upgrade ! bia - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:02] <Judg3_Dr34D> noob here: can anyone help me with installing Inkscape on Feisty?
[01:02] <tzafrir_laptop> Hi, I was helping someone build an external module on an Ubuntu 5.10 system
[01:02] <bulmer> GMWeezel: im not sure the sequence as I am trying to learn that part of it.. look at /etc/X11/Xsession.d/*  and see if those scripts gets run before gdm does or not
[01:02] <pi3> Judg3_Dr34D: sudo apt-get install inkscape
[01:03] <Judg3_Dr34D> yes but there is a problem : cannot install inkscape because of md5sum error
[01:03] <DETZIWT> hi i hope i am back in the right way
[01:03] <tzafrir_laptop> The linux-headers package did not have set the modules path correctly. I had to patch the Makefile myself. Which was probably the wrong thing to do
 had you tried to install it before?
[01:04] <Judg3_Dr34D> no 1st time today
[01:04] <Matt544> OK I am at the install, now it asking me how to partition the disk
[01:04] <DETZIWT> is it possible to instal ubuntu from an online source
[01:04] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: i tried 4 times, the same thing
[01:04] <Matt544> How large should I make the partition size?
[01:04] <GMWeezel> bulmer: no luck yet
[01:05] <DETZIWT> what is the prob judg
[01:05] <Judg3_Dr34D> Failed to fetch http://gr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/inkscape/inkscape_0.45-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb: MD5Sum mismatch
[01:05] <Matt544> How large should I make the partition size?
 I cant install inkscape
[01:05] <DETZIWT> ok
[01:06] <bulmer> GMWeezel: gdm is a binary, so its hard to look what it does to activate X and the relationship of scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/
[01:06] <DETZIWT> thought u had the same prob as
[01:06] <DETZIWT> me
[01:06] <zmh_> :)
[01:06] <DETZIWT> can anybody help me
[01:07] <DETZIWT> i am freakin out here becouse of either my unnolige or just a stupid pc
[01:07] <Acirby> #BashFr
[01:07] <DETZIWT> or both
[01:07] <Judg3_Dr34D> I downloaded the tar.gz file of Inkscape but I have no idea how to install it (I just installed ubuntu)
[01:07] <pi3> how do I disable desktop-effects from command?
[01:08] <DETZIWT> why does the 7.04 live .iso crach at 44% of the install
[01:09] <joshritger> can someone please tell me why i can't log into my wifi network that uses a wpa, I can see it in network manager but not log into it
[01:09] <rebroad> hi, anyone know if it's possible to rotate the desktop 180 please?
[01:09] <Amaranth> pi3: desktop-effects --disable
[01:09] <DETZIWT> i tried at least 10 times
[01:09] <sesamebike> Matt544: repartitioning the disc will probably not help win XP installer recognizing it. Have you searched Microsoft forums for possible reasons to why their installer might fail? Normally it shouldn't matter what's on the disc at all, the XP installer should be able to wipe any disc, even unformatted ones.
[01:09] <bulmer> Judg3_Dr34D: try reading the Readme file upon untarring that  tar file..it should have some directions how to install it
[01:10] <pi3> Amaranth: does not work, only opens desktop-effects just like $ desktop-effects :(
[01:10] <Judg3_Dr34D> bulmer: I did that but I just installed for the 1st time ubuntu
[01:10] <nitro4ce> is there a gconf string to remove the gnome logo located in the menu bar?
[01:10] <nitro4ce> (usually a foot)
[01:10] <DETZIWT> if only i could do that installing it......
[01:10] <Judg3_Dr34D> bulmer: and I havent got a clue of this kind ofmanual  installation
[01:11] <T-Connect> How I check to see what version of ATI driver that I have?
[01:11] <n2diy_> T-Connect: lsmod
[01:11] <T-Connect> Ok
[01:12] <bulmer> Judg3_Dr34D: umm maybe its too early for you then to install from source, perhaps you can find a deb package premade?
[01:12] <DETZIWT> is there anyone who can help?? Please
[01:12] <flo_> hi. How to apply an additional group to a user immediately? I thought on starting a new shell it would be fine?
[01:13] <flo_> i added it with kde user administration
[01:13] <T-Connect> Hmmm not it.
[01:13] <T-Connect> Wrong command?
[01:13] <T-Connect> lsmod
[01:14] <bulmer> flo_: you mean if a user is already log on have a session? you wan to add that user to another group?
[01:14] <kados_> DETZIWT : Whats the issue again?
[01:14] <Judg3_Dr34D> bulmer: I wish I knew what a deb file is...  :( <---- total noob
[01:14] <DETZIWT> hey kados
[01:14] <DETZIWT> wait i will change my name in TWIZTEDbytheloop
[01:14] <kados_> hey
[01:15] <bia> ok, will retry a manual upgrade
[01:15] <kados_> ok
[01:15] <bia> tell you ho it went afterwards
[01:15] <bulmer> Judg3_Dr34D: those are basically a package of utilities or the application itself..try to use synaptic and see if its there
[01:15] <Lunar_Lamp> Even when installing packages from official repo's (e.g. http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/main) I get an error about "untrusted packages".  How can I fix this?
[01:15] <T-Connect> Never mind. I will reinstall ATI to find out the version that I have.
[01:15] <flo_> bulmer: yes. It's possible , isnt it?
[01:15] <Mike2> Welcome back Bhaal
[01:16] <Judg3_Dr34D> it is there but when it finishes downloading I get the same message "Failed to fetch http://gr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/inkscape/inkscape_0.45-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb: MD5Sum mismatch"
[01:16] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Okay so what is the issue again?
[01:16] <bulmer> flo_ no, because the session is already established, the next logon perhaps will
[01:16] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> the problem is kados that whit the instal it crashes at 44% at the file copying stage
[01:16] <flo_> bulmer: i see.
[01:17] <T-Connect> Oh here it is 8.37.6
[01:17] <kados_> hmmm how did the partitioning go? Did you select to format your partitions?
[01:17] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> i could only selct the ext3 one and i did dad
[01:17] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> so the swap wasn`t formatted
[01:18] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> needer where the fat32 ones
[01:18] <Valicious> can anyone help me?  I'm trying to burn DVDs, but any program I use won't work
[01:19] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : And did you test the CD for defects?
[01:19] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, what OS?
[01:19] <riksta> Hi there, feisty automatically mounts my external HDD in "/media/My Book", but i want to share it over samba. This means i want to set HAL or whatever automatically mounts the external HDD so that the permissions are 755, please can someone tell me how i can go about this?
[01:19] <pi3> Judg3_Dr34D: do this, go to synaptic and change the country where you download from. From Greece to Italy for example
[01:20] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> yep several times
[01:20] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> none
[01:20] <pi3> reload and try to download
[01:20] <Valicious> Ubuntu amd64 fiesty fawn
[01:20] <sirus> trying to install ubuntu but my monitor goes out saying over range what res is ubuntu set at?
[01:20] <d4rkmonkey> you sure ubuntu recognizes your drive?
[01:21] <d4rkmonkey> it doesn't recognize mine at all
[01:21] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> sirus had the same thing with my monitor just autoadjust
[01:21] <pi3> Judg3_Dr34D or from the main server
[01:21] <sirus> hrmm
[01:21] <sirus> its a sis chipset
[01:21] <sirus> onboard anyone know if it will see it
[01:21] <sirus> ?
[01:21] <kados_> what size is your ext3 partitions?
[01:21] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: tried to do that but it started checking all the repositories, isn't there a way to select only inkscape to download from a different location?
[01:21] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> about 9.5
[01:22] <stunix> does anyone know of a good howto on how to get flash working with firefox on x86_64?
[01:22] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> maybe 10 gb
[01:22] <Valicious> d4rk, yeah.  It gives the names and model etc in the program, but it reporta an error whenever I try to burn a dvd
[01:22] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> brb kados
[01:22] <kados_> k
[01:23] <GMWeezel> bulmer: i figured out what i was trying to do; to run something after the X server starts, you have to create the file ~/.xsession with the programs you want run after X starts. you have to make sure you add "gnome-session" though
[01:23] <kitche> stunix: nspluginwrapper can do what you want
[01:23] <sirus> damn
[01:23] <d4rkmonkey> have you ever burnt .iso with it? The simplest way to burn a CD/DVD in feisty is right clicking the .iso and choosing burn to disk, if that works I know for sure its not a problem with drivers, and its a problem with the software
[01:23] <sirus> windows it is
[01:23] <PurpZeY> !nickspam
[01:23] <ubotu> You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines
[01:23] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> back kados
[01:24] <stunix> kitche: do you know of any website which exaplains how to do that?
[01:24] <kitche> sirus: it should see it but it's sis so who knows really
[01:24] <kitche> stunix: yeah hang on
[01:24] <Valicious> d4rk:  lemme try that real quick
[01:24] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> my ext3 is about 10gb and my swap is 1gb
[01:25] <Valicious> b4rk:  nope, it still gives me an error
[01:26] <kitche> stunix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341727 explains it really well actually
[01:26] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, I'm not 100% sure but its problem with the drivers for your drive in Ubuntu
[01:26] <stunix> kitche: thanks alot. :)
[01:26] <Kelden> Hello, I'm trying to dualboot XP with Ubuntu using a live cd but it fails to resize the existing hdr1 (XP), can anyone help?
[01:27] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> kados u still there
[01:27] <Kelden> there is also a recovery partition (hdr2) on the drive that came preloaded
[01:27] <d4rkmonkey> Kelden, I don't know if this will work, but you could try partitioning with GParted, and leave a big ol free space for Ubuntu. Then install and use the unallocated space? I don't know if this will work though
[01:28] <marmer> aiuto install joomla
[01:28] <marmer> sorry
[01:28] <Kelden> thanks, i'll look at the man for gparted
[01:29] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> kados_
[01:29] <OmegaCenti> Kelden: ?
 probably, change the gr from the link to us or ar. Then write in the command wget <link>
[01:29] <OmegaCenti> nm
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> Hey how do I check the manual for the mount command?
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> man mount
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> XD
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> I hope you realize I just wanted to see you say man mount OmegaCenti
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> sok, you have to start somewhere :)
[01:30] <OmegaCenti> pfft. don't care :p
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> lol
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> man mount...
[01:30] <d4rkmonkey> sounds so funny
[01:31] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> kados_ u there
[01:31] <sirus> can someone save me
[01:31] <Mike2> Welcome back Sx66gns
[01:31] <confused_David> hello
[01:31] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: you mean something like "wget http://fto.ntua.gr/ubuntu/pool/main/i/inkscape/inkscape_0.45-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb" ??
[01:32] <vlt|home> Hello. I'm booting 7.04 live cd on a ThinkPad. What boot parameter do I have to add to avoid the I/O errors on fd0 when booting?
[01:32] <kados_> yeah man
[01:32] <kados_> sorry
[01:32] <kados_> Im at work
[01:32] <m55> how can i dump the images out of a pdf?  I have a pdf that is just a bunch of scanned images and it's really slow to view
, I don't remember the first link, but yes, just replace gr with us
[01:32] <vlt|home> m55: pdfimages [-j]
[01:32] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> its ok
[01:33] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> did u get it
[01:33] <ShiftyPowers> anyone have experience running reiserfsck and rebuild-tree?
[01:33] <confused_David> can someone tell me why when it says fbsetbg -f wallpaper in the ~/.fluxbox/startup and i do that it does not work
[01:33] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: ok I'll try that now in terminal
[01:33] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : I had this happen with a windows machine and a linux machine.... what I did was cut the ext3 partition in half... and then tried installing on the first half and then the second half...to see if either would install sucessfully
 it will download to the home dir
[01:34] <vlt|home> m55: That's part of pkg "poppler-utils".
[01:34] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> yes and ....??
[01:34] <m55> vlt: thanks
[01:34] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: hmmm... ok... after that ???
[01:34] <kados_> if one half would... then that means the other half has problems....
[01:34] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> how is the outcome
[01:35] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> ok but u did that right
[01:35] <vlt|home> Any idea how to disable fd0 when booting live cd on a ThinkPad?
[01:35] <kados_> then I cut that bad half in half...until I isolated the smallest half that had the issue. I made that small half inactive
[01:35] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> it has to become a dual boot sys
[01:35] <confused_David> does anyone use fluxbox here?
[01:35] <d4rkmonkey> vlt|home, no idea, but you can always try using the alternate, I was having some tty error booting from the live, but didn't get an error when I used the alternate
[01:36] <ShiftyPowers> has anyone stopped rebuild-tree when running reiserfsck
[01:36] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> hey i am not that fermilliar with the stuff that i can do that without risk
[01:36] <ibanex> confused_David: yes
[01:36] <sirus> onboard anyone know if it will see it
[01:36] <vlt|home> d4rkmonkey: hmmm, thanks, but I need the live cd running there (can't install right now).
[01:36] <sirus> its a sis chipset

[01:37] <sirus> how can i change he res
[01:37] <confused_David> ibanex: have you ever changed your wallpaper.  and how do you keep it the same after restarting.  the fbsetbg -f mywallpaper does not work when i put in the startup file
[01:37] <sirus> the*
[01:37] <sirus> kitche: every time i load it up tp install the screen blanks out
[01:37] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Is windows already installed on one partition?
[01:37] <liquiddoom> I installed the kernel-modules for my kernel and the generic package, but it won't install
[01:37] <sirus> kitche: i see the ubuntu logo
[01:37] <vlt|home> (aah, after ~2 min timeout it stops trying to access /dev/fd0 and continues booting.)
[01:37] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> yup and running at the moment
[01:37] <liquiddoom> It needs the vmnet module running, I believe
[01:38] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> its this one
[01:38] <Judg3_Dr34D> pi3: ok I downloaded the file... should I just double click on it?
[01:38] <Madsy> The XOrg log contains this error (I'm using ATI fglrx drivers):

[01:39] <Valicious> ok, I'm really new to linux.  I downloaded a driver for my dvd-burner, what command do I need to use to open and install it?
[01:39] <confused_David> yes

[01:39] <Beriant> hey can anyone tell me why when i click on an executable icon or w/e it dosnt do anything?
[01:39] <confused_David> ibanex:yes
[01:39] <Beriant> the symbol for it is a blue diamond
[01:39] <ibanex> confusted_David: and it works when you issue the same command in a term?
[01:39] <sirus> kitche: any idea?
[01:40] <confused_David> ibanex: i could write in the terminal and it works.  but in the file it does not work
[01:40] <craigbass1976> Ok folks, I'm having conniptions over this...  I fdisk /dev/hdb and delete hdb5.  Write out to partition table.  Recreate it, write out to partition table.  Try to mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb5 and get "/dev/hdb5 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!"  reboot (because I remember seeing a note about rebooting in fdisk) and now I get the same thing.  Mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb5 gives me "mount: /dev/hdb5 al
[01:40] <craigbass1976> ready mounted or /mnt busy"
[01:40] <Beriant> hey can anyone tell me why when i click on an executable icon or w/e it dosnt do anything?
[01:40] <Beriant> the symbol for it is a blue diamond
[01:40] <confused_David> ibanex: sometimes it would initally start with that wall paper then change

[01:40] <riksta> Hi there, feisty automatically mounts my external HDD in "/media/My Book", but i want to share it over samba. This means i want to set HAL or whatever automatically mounts the external HDD so that the permissions are 755, please can someone tell me how i can go about this?
[01:40] <craigbass1976> Beriant, is it a shell script?
[01:40] <confused_David> ibanex: the style
[01:40] <Beriant> craigbass,im not sure how do i tel

[01:41] <Erlend> Hello! How can I get libssl.so.4? Synaptic only has different versions, it seems. I have a program that needs libssl.so.4 to start.
[01:41] <craigbass1976> head -20 filename
[01:41] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, what kind of file is it?
[01:41] <Beriant> im not sure havet tried that yet
[01:41] <ibanex> confused_David: weird, maybe try to write a script with a sleep then fbsetbg in it... then execute that script from startup
[01:41] <Valicious> .exe
[01:41] <ibanex> confused_David: although that is a little dirty
[01:41] <craigbass1976> Beriant, head -20 filename   If you get gobbly stuff, it's a binary.  If not it's some kind of script and you need to tell the icon proerties to run in a shell
[01:41] <d4rkmonkey> uhhh .exe is for windows, i don't think you will be able to use that drive on linux
[01:41] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> ok the first is NTFS as boot with windows 10 gb---->>>> the second is EXT3 as "/" for linux 10gb----->>> the third is the swap as linux/swap 1 gb----->>>> then an extended one with 2 large paritions as fat32
[01:42] <confused_David> yeah
[01:42] <Beriant> i installed in the terminal,alright ill try that 2sesc
[01:42] <confused_David> ibanex: i was trying not to do that but it seems to be the case :(
[01:42] <ibanex> confused_David: is your theme wallpaper being used instead?
[01:42] <craigbass1976> Beriant, what's the file?
[01:42] <pike_> Erlend: you might just be able to make a symlink to the current lib. what does locate libssl.so say?
[01:42] <Beriant> nmap
[01:42] <ibanex> confused_David: cause maybe you can just edit that line out of ~/.fluxbox/styles/yourTheme
[01:42] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, try to find a driver for linux
[01:43] <Valicious> erk...anyone know a place I can download firmware and driver update for my ND-3520A burner?
[01:43] <liquiddoom> Ubuntu is keeping back one kernel update and I want to install VMware. Should I update the kernel now?
[01:43] <pike_> liquiddoom: yeah. i would or youll have to redo vmware later
[01:43] <d4rkmonkey> Valicious, you could always try updateing the kernel if you have an old version of the kernel
[01:43] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> the manifactururs site Valicious
[01:43] <m55> how can i take an image file, split it in the middle and get two resulting image files using the command line.
[01:43] <craigbass1976> Beriant, where is the executable?
[01:44] <Beriant> craig,2secs
 Very well, how do I go about telling apt/aptitude to force the update?
[01:44] <pike_> m55: imagemagick id say is your best bet
[01:44] <confused_David> ibanex: basically comment it
[01:44] <craigbass1976> Beriant, 2secs?  Are you running a commodore?  :)
[01:44] <grompf_> server irc.gnome.org
[01:44] <pike_> m55: it includes many image tools cli
[01:44] <Beriant> craig,hahaha i dont even know what a commodore is
[01:44] <m55> pike: alright
[01:44] <ibanex> confused_David: yeah.. if it's there in your theme file.  also just checking that you have an & after the fbset in startup
[01:44] <Beriant> craig,its /usr/local/bin
[01:44] <liquiddoom> beriant: really old computer system
[01:45] <Beriant> hahaha no im not running an old system
[01:45] <Ominous> whats the best way to install beryl ?
[01:45] <hatem> Bonsoir, je suis un nouveau utilisateur d'ubuntu (5.10), mon jdk execute seuelement les apps console mais les apps interface ne les execute pas, aider moi svp
[01:45] <Erlend> pike_: locate libssl.so gives this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28419/ --- do I just create a symlink called libssl.so.4 in /usr/lib?
[01:45] <cafuego> Ominous: "not"
[01:45] <craigbass1976> Beriant, ahh, but you got the joke.  People who do are getting rare...
[01:45] <Beriant> craig, :D
[01:45] <confused_David> oh ok
[01:45] <Ominous> cafuego, why?
[01:45] <confused_David> thanks
[01:45] <mrigns> !fr > hatem
[01:45] <confused_David> ill try that
[01:45] <cafuego> Ominous: The second best way is you use the beryl repo, use theur code, which is newer than what is in Ubuntu.
[01:45] <vlt|home> m55: for less overhead you may have a look at netpbm.
[01:45] <Beriant> craig,alright so explain to me what i need to do again
[01:46] <cafuego> Ominous: Buggy
[01:46] <Ominous> in what way? what is more stable?
[01:46] <ibanex> confused_David: yeah it would be: fbsetbg -f yourbackground &
[01:46] <cafuego> Ominous: The non-GL standard window manager is more stable.
[01:46] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people can you tell me how to format my slave disk as I cant find disk manager on Feisty compared to Drapper?
[01:46] <sean__> can someone help me with ktorrent?
[01:46] <m55> vlt: ok
[01:46] <cafuego> Ominous: I ran beryl from ubuntu.beryl-project.org for a while.
[01:46] <confused_David> yeah i tried that
[01:46] <craigbass1976> Beriant, did a private window open up with me?
[01:47] <hatem> wring> yes
[01:47] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> kados_
[01:47] <craigbass1976> Beriant, chatty in here and nobody is answerign my question anyway
[01:47] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Just cut it in half.... and try installing on both... if one half works.... then you will know that the other half is somehow damaged..... but most likely not that entire half.... if you want to make sure you get as much space as possible you are going to want to keep cutting that bad half in half and adding that portion of that half in half... until you find the exact...
[01:47] <kados_> ...small section that is failing your install.
[01:47] <Beriant> craig, ye i got it,replied to ya
[01:47] <ibanex> confused_David: no go?
[01:48] <Ominous> when i go system --> preferences --> Desktop i get an error "The Composite extention is not available"
[01:48] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : As long as you dotn mess with the NTFS partitions you will not lose your windows install
[01:48] <Ominous> where can i get it?
[01:48] <confused_David> ibanex: trying now i dobules
[01:48] <Sam330> How do I install Ubuntu on my Win2k computer and use GRUB to dual boot?
[01:48] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> isnt there a way to chack the disk otherwise
[01:48] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Good thing is that the Grub boot loader wont install until all files are copied over
[01:48] <ceil420> craigbass1976, i don't know the answer to your question. i tried :x

[01:49] <mrigns> !love
[01:49] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people can you tell me how to format my slave disk as I cant find disk manager on Feisty compared to Drapper?
[01:49] <ubotu> Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.
[01:49] <ceil420> lol
[01:49] <ceil420> !botsnack
[01:49] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[01:49] <craigbass1976> Beriant, I don't know how to do this once the launcher is created, as I can't find the damned box
[01:50] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : yeah.... its fsck
[01:50] <sudobash> prick isnt a bad word
[01:50] <Sam330> How do I install Ubuntu on my Win2k computer and use GRUB to dual boot and do I need the Alternate Install CD?

[01:51] <Pirate_Hunter> hi people can you tell me how to format my slave disk as I cant find disk manager on Feisty compared to Drapper?
[01:51] <craigbass1976> Beriant, during the process, you'll see that checkbox right on the fron page
[01:51] <ceil420> d4rkmonkey, i think Hoary was the fourth; i don't know any earlier than that
[01:51] <Beriant> craig,how do i do that lol,im very new to this linux thing

[01:51] <d4rkmonkey> never heard of hoary guess thats it
[01:51] <craigbass1976> I fdisk /dev/hdb and delete hdb5.  Write out to partition table.  Recreate it, write out to partition table.  Try to mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb5 and get "/dev/hdb5 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!"  reboot (because I remember seeing a note about rebooting in fdisk) and now I get the same thing.  Mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb5 gives me "mount: /dev/hdb5 already mounted or /mnt busy"
[01:51] <Pirate_Hunter> cna someone please help me out... please
[01:51] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> we`ll problem with that it ain`t on the sys cmd
[01:51] <ceil420> oh, i thought dapper was fifth, then edgy, then feisty
[01:51] <craigbass1976> Beriant, do you IM?
[01:51] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: how to format your slave drive?
[01:51] <d4rkmonkey> yup, according to ubotu hoardy is second
[01:51] <Beriant> crag,ye ive got msn
[01:52] <ceil420> ah
[01:52] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : Windows CMD wont find the ext3 partition.... just a assuming
[01:52] <Ominous> when i go system --> preferences --> Desktop i get an error "The Composite extention is not available" how do i get it?
[01:52] <Sam330> Can anyone elp with my question?
[01:52] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: well how to format my other hd which will be used as a slave disk
[01:52] <craigbass1976> Beriant, I'm craigbass76.  Give me a holler there
[01:52] <datmony> anyone know if there is a way to recover a filesystem that had mkfs done on it?
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: have you tried gparted?
[01:52] <pike_> Pirate_Hunter: sudo cfdisk /dev/hdb  or c or d or a   that is the tool for creating partitions. sudo -i then type mkfs and hittab a few times for all the mkfs.format commands then for example mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb1  be CAREFUL with that make sure you are formatting the correct partition
[01:52] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> oh yeah ... me the n00b
[01:52] <Beriant> craig, @where?
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: are you trying this from a live CD< or from an install?
[01:52] <pike_> Pirate_Hunter: that is the termial option i dunno gui tools very well
 what happened?
[01:52] <craigbass1976> On msn.  My email is<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[01:52] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> we`ll then i will chack it out tomorrow
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> !gparted | Pirate_Hunter
[01:52] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[01:53] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> for now i will get in bed
[01:53] <ceil420> does anybody know if it's possible to run the colour chooser widget from the shell, instead of opening a program like GIMP or Agave?
[01:53] <TWIZTEDbytheloop> thnx for the intel kaos_
[01:53] <John`> is there a program in ubuntu that can read mathcad file
[01:53] <John`> .xmcd?
[01:53] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I thoguth of that but the problem is that Feisty has automounted it and I thought if i use gparted to change it to EXT3 it wont pick up cause it will look for the old NTFs, so is my theory correct?
[01:53] <John`> anyone experienced before?
[01:53] <Sam330> what is tha tothe rubuntu room? #ubuntu-class or what?
[01:53] <Beriant> craig,2secs its doing some weird shirt
[01:53] <fisherwork> ceil420: a, awesome that u smoke - me too.. and b, i think you can run any program via shell
[01:53] <pike_> John`: id check the forums or apt-cache search mathcad maybe
[01:53] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: can you unmount it?
[01:54] <John`> how do you apt-cache search?
[01:54] <ceil420> John`, i know there are cad programs in linux, but i don't think any of them are installed in ubuntu by default, and i don't know what file format they use
[01:54] <craigbass1976> Beriant, did I accept it?  Thought I did, but I don't see you online
[01:54] <zploskey> John`: type apt-cache search <whatever you're searching for>
[01:54] <ceil420> fisherwork, well i don't know the actual program's name; i know the GtkWidget name of it, but i don't think that'd work :x
[01:54] <John`> thanks
[01:54] <pike_> John`: open a terminal and type 'apt-cache search something' you can also search within your package manager (synaptic) if you prefer a graphical tool
[01:55] <ceil420> fisherwork, and tokers unite! ;)
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: just to make sure I understand, jthe drive is currently NTFS, and you want to format it completely to ext3?
[01:55] <zploskey> John`: if you need help about commands a good place to go is typing: man <command>
[01:55] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I cna but than how would I mount it, Feisty piked it up for me and once i unmount how do i format it; gparted has to be used in boot which is soemhting i dont want, there must eb a GUI function in feisty for formatting existing disks, Drapper had it
[01:55] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : You could reburn the install ISO
[01:55] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: yes you got it right
[01:56] <Ominous> when i go system --> preferences --> Desktop i get an error "The Composite extention is not available" how do i get it?
[01:56] <datmony> I have a drive that I mistakenly used mkfs on, thinking it was a different partition, is there a way to recover the data off of the drive now?
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: well, i guess you could burn the gparted live CD...
[01:56] <ceil420>  GtkColorSelectionDialog <=- the GTK+ name for the colour chooser, but i don't know how to run it from shell :x
[01:56] <confuse_david> ibanex: no it diid not work
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: its quite functional, i like it better than using the one w/ Ubuntu
[01:57] <confuse_david> ibanex: initially i saw the picture but then the original wallpaper came up
[01:57] <Kelden> Hello, I'm trying to install a dualboot XP/Ubuntu and cannot resize the XP partition
[01:57] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak :I already have it but that ahs to be run in boot which is nto soemthing i want to do, isnt htere an option inside Feisty to do this cause Drapper had it in systems but they seemed to have taken it out in Feisty
[01:57] <TrojanRabbit> ceil420: You can get a standalone program called gcolor2
[01:57] <fisherwork> Kelden: are you working in XP right now?
[01:57] <Kelden> gparted always fails giving no reason
[01:57] <vlt|home> Hello. Now I'm trying to install 7.04 on my notebook (using live cd). I'm missing the option "shrink ntfs partition, create new ones behind sda1 and install there ...". What can I do?
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: oh, ok, now i understand what you're saying(i think)..
[01:57] <ibanex> confuse_david: hmm is it a default theme?
[01:57] <Kelden> no, i'm using the livecd
[01:57] <pike_> Kelden: id defrag from within windows first and try as IndyGunFreak suggested to Pirate_Hunter the gparted livcd
[01:58] <confuse_david> i want it to be
[01:58] <ceil420> TrojanRabbit, ah, thanks o/ looks like i don't have to bother the ##gnome guys after all :p
[01:58] <confuse_david> the default theme is a blue color
[01:58] <confuse_david> Ibanex: how did you get rid of your default theme
[01:58] <ibanex> confuse_david: you can right click on the desktop, then search around for themes
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: in System/Admin, do you have a Gnome Partition editor option?
[01:58] <Kelden> pike_: does defragging usually affect repartition?
[01:58] <kados_> TWIZTEDbytheloop : What brand of burnable media do you have that you used for the linux install?
[01:59] <fisherwork> http://art.gnome.org is an excellent place for free theme stuff
[01:59] <ibanex> confuse_david: there should be a bunch... but i downloaded and edited my own and put it in ~/.fluxbox/styles/
[01:59] <Kelden> i guess it would, I never thought of that
[01:59] <fisherwork> all sorts of great login pages, controls, icons, etc
[01:59] <Kelden> thanks
[01:59] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak : nope havent got that? how cna i get it
[01:59] <deebus> where can I go for questions about wine?
[01:59] <slop> where do i find the configuration file for wine's menu entries in the Gnome Panel Menu?
[01:59] <ibanex> confuse_david: oops theme = styles
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: sorry, i've had a long day..lol, sudo apt-get install gparted
[01:59] <confuse_david> yeah
[01:59] <pike_> Kelden: i have heard it suggested. i havent really resized myself im always too paranoid. i usually backup everything and make new ones. that isnt really feasable with xp though
[01:59] <deebus> running into some problems installing diablo2 with wine in dapper
[02:00] <ibanex> confuse_david: can you pastebin ~/.fluxbox/init
[02:00] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: lol but dont i have to run that in boot to be able to partition the disk which is what i dont want?
[02:00] <confuse_david> i can't write in init
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: no
[02:00] <confuse_david> ibanex. it won't all me
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> if you install it, you can run it from your installed OS, it should do what you want
[02:00] <ceil420> and does anybody know how i can set .txt files to open in Mousepad by default? i got an IDE the other day, and it's a wonderful program, but it seems to have made itself the default application for text files, and it's just too "big" for when i want to edit a simple .txt :x
[02:00] <ibanex> confuse_david: ?
[02:01] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: so your positive i can run that inside Feisty without having to be in boot, if you say that's correct ill try it
[02:01] <confuse_david> if i write in ~/.fluxbox/init. it won't save my written stuff
[02:01] <taa> hello
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i don't see why you couldn't.. only thing i've ever used ti for, was to format a USB drive so Feisty could see it, I can only imagine formatting a slave drive would be the same
[02:01] <confuse_david> i don't "have permision
[02:01] <ceil420> !hi | taa
[02:01] <ubotu> taa: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:02] <ceil420> you don't even have read permission? :o
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: did that answer your question?... i hope i'm not confusing you more..lol
[02:02] <KuDeTa> !hi | daddy
[02:02] <ubotu> daddy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:02] <confuse_david> there is nothing to read in the init but i can't write either
[02:02] <KuDeTa> !hi | ubotu
[02:02] <ubotu> ubotu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:03] <ibanex> confuse_david: that should be owned by you :/.... sudo chmod 744 ~/.fluxbox/init
[02:03] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: lol  you're assuming but than it might be right, I'll try it out. However i dont understand why they took out the disk option which allowed formatting of hadr disks in Drapper, why didnt htey caried it forward to Feisty I cna't understand for the life of me. Yeah that answered my quetsion np
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> ubotu is saying hi to himself.
[02:03] <ibanex> confuse_david: check the owner and group too...
[02:03] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, I can tell you that everything IndyGunFreak has said is true.
[02:03] <r0bby> crimsun_: unping
[02:03] <fisherhome> what's the next official release called?
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: lol, thanks for the vote of confidence
[02:03] <taa> i'm geting troubles running zope on feisty (googled it nok, no one replying from #zope chanel)
[02:03] <mrunagi> !bluebugger
[02:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bluebugger - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:04] <taa> i would like to know of some one can help me please
[02:04] <d4rkmonkey> !gutsy fisherhome
[02:04] <d4rkmonkey> !gutsy | fisherhome
[02:04] <ubotu> fisherhome: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10).

[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: vox754 i honestly never noticed that gparted had been pulled from the installed versions of Feisty
[02:04] <Puppy_> Does anyone know if GStreamer is legal in the U.S.A.?
[02:04] <fisherhome> awesome thanks mate!
[02:04] <confuse_david> ibanex. now i can read
[02:04] <taa> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28426/ ERROR log files when i run runzope
[02:04] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: np I just wouldnt expect to be downloading an external app to format my HD especially since it was available on the previous versions of ubuntu which is weird
[02:04] <MenZa> Puppy_: To my knowledge, it isn't, no
[02:04] <taa> please if you got any idea help me :"'(
[02:05] <ibanex> confuse_david: sudo chown yourusername:yourusername ~/.fluxbox/init
[02:05] <Puppy_> MenZa: So do you know if I can use something else? :)
[02:05] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, Pirate_Hunter, I noticed that right away, because I installed 6.06 and then 6.10 almost simultaneously.
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> what is zope
[02:05] <MenZa> Puppy_: To decode mp3s?
[02:05] <Puppy_> MenZa: I am trying to play DVDs.
[02:05] <ceil420> MenZa, what's wrong with GStreamer? :o
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> !dvd
[02:05] <MenZa> Puppy_: Ahh; you need libdvdcss2 for that
[02:05] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[02:05] <confuse_david> ibanex: ok
[02:06] <MenZa> ceil420: Nowt is.
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> Ubotu is a genius
[02:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a genius - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:06] <Puppy_> MenZa: And is is legal in the U.S.A.?
[02:06] <ceil420> MenZa, so why wouldn't it be legal? :o
[02:06] <MenZa> ceil420: Because Intellectual Property is valid in the US (and the US only)
[02:06] <Mike2> Welcome back lightrush
[02:06] <MenZa> Puppy_: I don't know. Look at the link.
[02:07] <ibanex> confuse_david: can you write?
[02:07] <MenZa> Puppy_: I don't believe it is, for the same reasons as above
[02:07] <marmer> hy
[02:07] <Puppy_> MenZa: Thanks!
[02:07] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: still it suprised me why they wouldnt carry it forward, it was such a handy tool and I bet i aint the only one who is thinking "what were they thinking by taking that off"
[02:07] <MenZa> Puppy_: Truth be told; it only serves as a disclaimer. The RIAA isn't going to knock in your door the moment you press 'Play'.
[02:07] <ceil420> MenZa, isn't it just a media player? :o
[02:07] <fisherhome> so i'd really like to get involved in Ubuntu somehow.. i'm an excellent graphics designer, i wonder if i can do some artwork
[02:07] <MenZa> ceil420: gstreamer? No.
[02:07] <confuse_david> now i can
[02:07] <MenZa> !gstreamer | ceil420
[02:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gstreamer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:07] <confuse_david> ibanex: yep thanks
[02:07] <MenZa> hmm
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> Puppy_: i don't think there's any libdvdcss police running around looking for you watching DVD's you've acquired(legally of course, illegally is probably different)
[02:07] <foxjazz> Hi all
[02:07] <MenZa> What IndyGunFreak said.
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: did it work?
[02:08] <ceil420> MenZa, that's the impression i get from http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org :o
[02:08] <marmer> i'm looking for htdocs the direcroty of apache i can't find, neven give: $ find / -iname htdocs
[02:08] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: ive installed gparted where would i find it in Feisty
[02:08] <ibanex> confuse_david: np... also make sure your startup file is correct
[02:08] <Puppy_> MenZa: yeah. but it is not legal.
[02:08] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, I thought the same! There are reasons for everything.
[02:08] <marmer> how can I find it?
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: System/Admin menu
[02:08] <MenZa> Puppy_: True.
[02:08] <MenZa> ceil420: gstreamer is a set of plugins
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> or you could start it in terminal gksudo gparted
[02:08] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: thanx
[02:08] <ibanex> confuse_david: it should be rwx rx rx or 755
[02:08] <MenZa> ceil420: Which allows you to play various types of restricted media
[02:08] <foxjazz> is there a movie editor for ubuntu?
[02:08] <confuse_david> i can write in the startup
[02:08] <ceil420> MenZa, oh, i see
[02:09] <confuse_david> and it saves
[02:09] <marmer> foxjazz: avidemux
[02:09] <confuse_david> but i just don't get the wallpaper
[02:09] <ceil420> MenZa, yeah, the MPAA probably wouldn't like that :x
[02:09] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: I guess the makers of ubuntu move in mysterious way >:-)
[02:09] <ibanex> confuse_david: ok. restart fluxbox and see if you get it now that those perms are set correctly.. just for fun
[02:09] <d4rkmonkey_> XD I found one usefull feature of live search.. it can check my answers for algebra questions
[02:09] <marmer> somene help me?
[02:09] <Puppy_> MenZa: and everyone else. Is there anything we can do to make it legal. :) lol
[02:09] <MenZa> ceil420: Again; as long as you acquire your music legally, there's no problem with it
[02:09] <confuse_david> restart computer or restart with right click?
[02:09] <atrus> any thoughts on why nm-applet/network-manager connects fine to a wpa2 network, but not to a completely free-access open wireless hotspot?
[02:09] <MenZa> ceil420: The EU has rejected all suggestions about Intellectual Property so far for this very reason
[02:10] <MenZa> Puppy_: Nope. It needs to be decoded, and libdvdcss2 is the only thing that can do that.
[02:10] <ceil420> MenZa, lucky EU :x
[02:10] <MenZa> ceil420: I know we are :)
[02:10] <confuse_david> i will log off and log on. the restart with the right click does not work
[02:10] <MenZa> Puppy_: Besides, if there were other methods, they'd work the same way
[02:10] <CientificoLoco> how do I convert .avi to .(file for DVD)?
[02:10] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, I remember I actually tracked the package and wanted to take a look at the changelog, but never did. You may try it.
[02:10] <Puppy_> MenZa: ok thanks.
[02:10] <MenZa> CientificoLoco: with mencoder, but I can't give you the specifics

[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> real life?..ha, like thats an excuse.. :)
[02:12] <m55> how do i apply a command to a bunch of files in a directory?
[02:12] <MenZa> m55: Such as?
[02:12] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: i dont even know what the original package was called "All I know it was called soemthing on the lines of... Disk manager..",. Well am i the only one who didnt know gparted was now a partition up for Feisty cause it is great just like the live CD version. OH well im behind with the times and technology... I didnt think tat was possible at my age
[02:13] <woody_> wow, tons of people on here... could someone help me with an internet connection problem
[02:13] <m55> i want to do something like pnmtogif "original.pbm" > "original.gif"

[02:13] <woody_> oh I know, I found that, as well as a tutorial for my specific card
[02:13] <MenZa> m55: would require you to do a small script, as filenames obviously have different... names.
[02:14] <broedje> hm no ttyUSB0 device in my devs. want to bring up an CSR bluetooth adapter
[02:14] <woody_> but for some reason I am unable to blacklist bcm43xx
[02:14] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: Yeha but now I get read function only which is annoying, I need read and write facility
[02:14] <craigbass1976> I fdisk /dev/hdb and delete hdb5.  Write out to partition table.  Recreate it, write out to partition table.  Try to mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb5 and get "/dev/hdb5 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!"  reboot (because I remember seeing a note about rebooting in fdisk) and now I get the same thing.  Mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb5 gives me "mount: /dev/hdb5 already mounted or /mnt busy"
[02:14] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, gparted has been around before dapper, it was included in it. But the "disk manager" was some sort of applet or frontend, I can't recall.
[02:14] <spoop> I'm installing the nvidia drivers, where do i put NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
[02:14] <Pirate_Hunter> vox754: see, very handy tool not just in boot
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: read only?
[02:14] <MenZa> spoop: you run the file with sudo ./filename
[02:14] <[GuS] > spoop: where ever you want...
[02:15] <cafuego> spoop: Nowhere, just use the prepackaged drivers. 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx'
[02:15] <spoop> thanks :)
[02:15] <MenZa> spoop: If it says permission denied, do chmod +x <filename>
[02:15] <confuse_david> im back
[02:15] <broedje> any idea why one could have no ttyUSB devices?
[02:15] <confuse_david> it work
[02:15] <confuse_david> ibanex: it worked
[02:15] <MenZa> cafuego: I prefer the vanilla drivers myself
[02:15] <confuse_david> however
[02:15] <wastedfluid> Hi guys.  I was dual booting ubuntu+xp for awhile.  i finally said bye to windows.. removed hda1+hda2.  I tried booting off live cd and re-sizing hda3(my main partition) to add the other 40gb on it.. but the space is BEFORE hda3.  Any easy way to do this?  I couldn't figure out how.
[02:15] <vox754> !paste > confuse_david
[02:15] <confuse_david> if i right click and restarted, then i will get my blue screen.
[02:15] <confuse_david> ok
[02:15] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I ahvent got permission to write anything to it, i need to gain full permission
[02:15] <cafuego> MenZa: They break on kernel updates and are really not useful for most people.

[02:16] <orbisvicis> anyone know how to set the region code to 0x00 ?
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: did you have to enter your root password when gparted started?
[02:16] <ibanex> confuse_david: dunno... maybe it doesnt run that startup file. i need a nap, good luck
[02:16] <confuse_david> all right thanks for your help
[02:16] <ikro> hi cafuego, menza, ubotu and all now conecting..
[02:16] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: yeha why?
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: just wondering, seems you should have permission in that instance.
[02:18] <MenZa> ikro: Hello
[02:18] <ibanex> confuse_david: np
[02:18] <ikro> =)
[02:18] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, Pirate_Hunter no what he means is he needs to edit fstab to gain permissions on the new ext3 partition
[02:18] <MenZa> !fstab
[02:18] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[02:18] <confuse_david> hey guys here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28428/

[02:19] <MenZa> spoop: Do as cafuego says
[02:19] <MenZa> spoop: sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: wierd, i never had to do that, but i didn't install ntfs support either.
[02:19] <spoop> dunno if that will work for me
[02:19] <MenZa> Why?
[02:19] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: I aint going to mess with the permission in terminal just going to root nautilus ad give my group permission, much easier and cheaper :-). Well just going to leave owner ther same and give myself delete and access in group
[02:19] <MenZa> They're the same drivers
[02:19] <spoop> well i'll give it a try
[02:19] <MenZa> Sure. :)
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: what are you doing, removing XP?
[02:20] <cafuego> spoop: the prebuilt ones will auto-update, less hassle from your end.
[02:20] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, you are slow today...
[02:20] <ceil420> - approximately 500 icons in SVG format <=- omg it's gonna take me a while to make an icon theme, innit? ><
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: very long day..lol
[02:20] <foxjazz> how do you write a file to another disk.  Says I don't have access.
[02:20] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: nah cant do that the rest of the world that i knwo hate linux so i keep xp on a section of its won, i gave it 40Gb and most is filled with junk as well as company work but mostly junk
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i see
[02:21] <taa> Is there any tutorial about installing zope 2.x + python (seems like zope is python version dependant)
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> i remember when I broke the chains of Microsoft.
[02:22] <Jamesinator> !nautilus > Jamesinator
[02:22] <cafuego> spoop: After installing linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) and nvidia-glx, run 'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable', then logout, hit ctrl-alt-backspace to restart X, and log back in.

I've tried chowning the mountpoints to root:smbusers, and chmod 755, but it reset to 755 straight away
[02:23] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i see, makes sense

[02:28] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i'm trying to remember it.. is it gconf-editor?
[02:28] <wastedfluid> I have gparted already.   but telling me to make an extended partition doesn't tell me how to add it to hda3.
[02:28] <euxneks> cweagans: wow uhm.. yeah I guess that's where my "help" ends then =P sorry
[02:28] <vox754> Pirate_Hunter, probably need to give an appropriate umask=002 (not exactly this one) in /etc/fstab  please do not put pressure on other people.

[02:33] <Toulouse> and it has a makefile
[02:33] <euxneks> oh err
[02:33] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: try this... if you're still in gconf-editor, go to Apps, Nautilus, Desktop.. and make sure "Volumes_Visible" is checked
[02:33] <euxneks> cweagans: looks like he gets errors
[02:33] <Toulouse> i just dont know how to use a makefile

[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> oh, later
[02:38] <thill2708_> Yeah, I think this one's still on edgy or dapper. But hardware information basically opens up the device manager which I've got on it, which says "unknown" for a bunch of stuff. Is there a way around that?

[02:39] <MenZa> Toulouse: What is this you're trying to compile?
[02:40] <Toulouse> flash for linux
[02:40] <MenZa> Toulouse: Why?
[02:40] <Toulouse> it's a flash development thing
[02:40] <MenZa> Aha
[02:40] <Toulouse> cause i dont want to buy flash
[02:40] <Toulouse> :)
[02:40] <MenZa> Ahh, Flash Studio
[02:40] <MenZa> Right
[02:40] <Toulouse> flash doesnt seem to run in wine

[02:41] <Toulouse> it seems that ive run into the point where i need to at least learn to use makefiles

[02:42] <Toulouse> mac's are the best
[02:42] <MenZa> Toulouse: f4l? two seconds
[02:42] <mrunagi> ubuntuforums doesnt recognize kxdockers
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> crap is against channel policy?
[02:42] <bruenig> mac's are overpriced hardware
[02:42] <foxjazz> cause I can't run these programs in 64bit
[02:43] <Toulouse> macs are stable
[02:43] <mrunagi> do i have to have kde installed?
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> Toulouse: so is linux..:)
[02:43] <thill2708_> hey, sysinfo does the trick
[02:43] <bruenig> if you intend to put linux on the box, there is no reason to buy a mac
[02:43] <Toulouse> true
[02:43] <bruenig> it is a waste of money
[02:43] <foxjazz> macs are 64bit right?
[02:43] <Pelo> mrunagi, look it up in wikipedia there is a link to the page ,  maybe it's kxdocker with no s
[02:43] <thill2708_> they should use this instead of device manager for ""Hardware infromation"
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i agree 100%
[02:43] <Toulouse> foxjazz: some are
[02:43] <mrunagi> i see it in snaptycs
[02:43] <mrunagi> but does it require kde?

[02:45] <Toulouse> kk, thanks menza
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> MenZa: yeah..
[02:45] <Pelo> mrunagi, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KXDocker
[02:45] <foxjazz> I don't just want a pc that's 64bit I want the software compiled that way
[02:45] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: nope nada im going to try soemthing once i find it but its not picking it up in places even knowing i cna see it in media and it wont put it on desktop as well, dam i hate when this happens
[02:45] <mrunagi> ty
[02:45] <cweagans> can anyone recommend a video editor for ubuntu?
[02:45] <bruenig> avidemux
[02:46] <foxjazz> cweagans: not if you have 64bit
[02:46] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: wierd, i have no idea why that is.
[02:46] <Toulouse> cweagons: use cinerrela
[02:46] <IndyGunFreak> i don't have it set to see my hard drives on my desktop,
[02:46] <newb_prob> sudo apt-get install xchat gives me: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! xchat-common xchat
[02:46] <mrunagi> pelo do i have to have kde installed?
[02:46] <MenZa> I have absolutely no idea, Toulouse.
[02:46] <MenZa> Sorry.
[02:46] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak, neither do i going to try somehting when I find what im looking for, you might be able to help me afterwards
[02:46] <Toulouse> thanks anyways
[02:46] <Pelo> mrunagi, donT' think so but it will install the dependencies it needs if any
[02:47] <Toulouse> hmm... i'll go looking for f4l somewhere else
[02:47] <PriceChild> cweagans, kino?
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: lol, don't get your hopes up..lol
[02:47] <Toulouse> Anyone know of any flash developing tools for linux???
[02:47] <mrunagi> oh i dont mind as long as it doesnt mess with gnome becuase i dont like kde
[02:47] <MenZa> Toulouse: try apt-cache search flash
[02:47] <jscinoz> I have two smbshares listed in /etc/fstab but no matter what i do i cant get write access on any user besides root, I've made a group entitled smbusers(gid=1003) added all 3 users to it and mentioned it in /etc/fstab but still no luck, what should i do now? I've tried chowning the mountpoints to root:smbusers, and chmod 755, but it reset to 755 straight away my /etc/fstab is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28430/
[02:47] <bruenig> Toulouse, none
[02:48] <Toulouse> bruenig: wrong, flash for linux

[02:48] <cweagans> fabiovalinhos: does that work on 64bit?
[02:49] <Pelo> mrunagi, I've just read that awn works best if you have compiz running , so ... you mght want to try and turn on he desktop effects
[02:49] <fabiovalinhos> cweagans: i don't know..i saw the same question like your in the Ubuntu forum Brasil
[02:50] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: you still around?
[02:51] <kkrusty> what package should i install to get qmake-qt4?
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: yup
[02:51] <newb_prob> a bunch of packages I want to install can not be authenticaed ... why?
[02:51] <atomiku> I'm bored of gnome-terminal. What other terminal apps are out there? maybe one with cool colors or someshit

[02:53] <clever> im thinking of installing a minimal ubuntu to a usb harddrive
[02:53] <clever> then putting the drive into another pc(laptop) and using it there
[02:54] <clever> since the target pc lacks cd booting
[02:54] <mrunagi> pelo i ahve desktop effects running but ubuntu wont run kxdocker it says it probably crashed
[02:54] <clever> would ubuntu get upset much from changing the hardware it was installed into?
[02:54] <Invisionfree> [AMSG] Thuger50: PM me please if you read this.
[02:54] <apollo> msb
[02:54] <Pelo> mrunagi, that,s the best I can do for you
[02:54] <apollo> msn
[02:55] <gdb> clever: not really, no
[02:55] <clever> i'll try the smart boot manager first though
[02:55] <clever> that might work best
[02:55] <gdb> clever: no more than the live CD gets upset when you move it from one machine to another
[02:55] <mrunagi> so all u did was aptitude install and ran it and it worked for u?
[02:55] <clever> i was going to do a full install to a laptop drive in a usb enclosure
[02:55] <clever> using a desktop pc
[02:56] <clever> then move the drive into a real laptop
[02:56] <Lounge> i am convinced that googles picasa for linux is a backdoor for microsoft to slither in and eventually take over. after seeing picasa run a wine emulated explorer.exe? yeah

[02:56] <MajorPayne> Isn't there a way he could boot from a floppy (Assuming he has a floppy drive).
[02:56] <kkrusty> did anyone get my question? Where can i get qmake-qt4? qt4-dev-tools?
[02:56] <clever> MajorPayne: yes it does have an external floppy drive
[02:56] <Pirate_Hunter> Cheesepirate: lol but i deserved it for that
[02:57] <Cheesepirate> !games
[02:57] <clever> MajorPayne: the smartbootmanager is put onto a floppy and then can boot cd's from that

[02:58] <MajorPayne> clever: I never created a boot floppy before so I can't help you.  But that may be easier.
[02:58] <Cheesepirate> you androids will never catch up with my moxious self
[02:58] <clever> my first thing is to clean the drive out of any data i may want
[02:58] <create> anyone familiar with problems installing ubuntu 7.04 on a amd x86 machine ?

[02:59] <Cheesepirate> man.. you need to give this kid some glasses
[03:00] <mrunagi> why do programs in linux have to be so difficult to run
[03:00] <MajorPayne> clever: The processor will not be a problem, but something else on the system may be.
[03:00] <pete_> mrunagi: because it's more fun that way
[03:00] <Cheesepirate> help ? been around since 3.10
[03:00] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  When I have three programs open in Ubuntu (Doesn't matter which programs, just any three), my system hangs and requires a reboot by power button.  Any idea as to why it would do this?  I have plenty of memory when it happens, and swap space is not a factor.
[03:00] <Ha1> Hey all
[03:00] <CppIsWeird> mrunagi, apparently you haven't used vista yet.
[03:00] <mrunagi> its not fun for me
[03:00] <jarrod> if instructions tell you to compile to a directory you don't have do you typically make it?
[03:00] <mrunagi> vista works fine for me
[03:00] <MajorPayne> clever: Try searching some of the Linux on laptop sites for your system.
[03:00] <Sonic1> ew
[03:00] <Sonic1> vista
[03:00] <Sonic1> nasty
[03:00] <tck> anyone use a SATA laptop hard drive?
[03:01] <mrunagi> 99% of the time when it says to ./compile or whatever or make isntall
[03:01] <mrunagi> i get an error
[03:01] <mrunagi> why??
[03:01] <CppIsWeird> pfft, 15 years of windows, 5 hours of vista, and im a linux user.
[03:01] <bruenig> mrunagi, because you don't have the proper dependencies installed
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> mrunagi: you probably have dependency issues
[03:01] <Sonic1> hehe
[03:01] <pete_> mrunagi: you have to install the comiler and the libraries of code that the program needs
[03:01] <kkrusty> does anyone know where i can get qmake-qt4? I seem to have qmake-qt3 already but cant get qmake-qt4.
[03:01] <mrunagi> i guess that would make sense but when i follow a post exactly as they have it and it works for everyone but me
[03:01] <mrunagi> that doesnt make sense
[03:02] <pete_> mrunagi, just use the Add/Remove Programs menu
[03:02] <Pirate_Hunter> mrunagi: its due to dependencies, compared to .deb that will get them for you rpm or whatever will ask you to download it yourself. You need to reed the screen it tells you most of the times
[03:02] <jarrod> if instructions tell you to compile to a directory you don't have do you typically make it? and then what is the cmd to use a make file to compile to a new directory?
[03:02] <CppIsWeird> mrunagi, trust me, just calm down and take things slow. i made the mistake of expecting linux to do everything that windows did... but you will eventually learn to drop your windows expectations for linux and figure out that linux does things much better.
[03:02] <rustalot> where can I get a comprehesive guide to the CLI  that goes from zero to grep/sed/awk/cut/shell scripting
[03:02] <Ash`> 1039 users.
[03:02] <Ash`> omg.
[03:02] <Kitar|st> ok
[03:02] <mrunagi> im not translating windows over to linux except its hard not to seek out an install.exe
[03:02] <|Jason8|> Hey all.  When I have three programs open in Ubuntu (Doesn't matter which programs, just any three), my system hangs and requires a reboot by power button.  Any idea as to why it would do this?  I have plenty of memory when it happens, and swap space is not a factor.
[03:02] <mrunagi> but when nothing works as its suppose to its hard
[03:02] <IndyGunFreak> Ash`: sorry, its a slow day.. we get around 1300 a lot of times
[03:03] <CppIsWeird> yeah, its nice having everything in nice little packages
[03:03] <clever> MajorPayne: the cpu in the target pc is about 50mhz but the bogomips i got off a boot floppy awhile ago put it at 80mhz maybe
[03:03] <foxjazz> how do you get a mac address?
[03:03] <Ash`> 1300? @_@
[03:03] <clever> MajorPayne: 486 cpu
[03:03] <Kitar|st> Windows : making stupid people to think they are smart Linux : making smart people to think they are stupid
[03:03] <pete_> mrunagi: use synaptic package manager
[03:03] <Kitar|st> ahaahah
[03:03] <kkrusty> Ash`: yeah and no ones even noticing my question
[03:03] <Kitar|st> lolz
[03:03] <Ash`> ahah
[03:03] <bruenig> mrunagi, installing from source is actually fairly easy
[03:03] <mrunagi> i did
[03:03] <Ash`> im bored
[03:03] <mrunagi> it didnt work
[03:03] <Ash`> so im going to random channels >>
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> kkrusty: conspiracy
[03:03] <mrunagi> i cant get kiba to work i cant get awn to work i cant get kxdocker to work
[03:03] <Ash`> i don't know anything about ubuntu
[03:03] <Ash`> so
[03:03] <Kitar|st> it rox
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> !offtopic | Ash`
[03:03] <ubotu> Ash`: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:03] <Kitar|st> its fast
[03:03] <Cheesepirate> INTRUDER
[03:03] <CppIsWeird> mrunagi, linux is built on top of applications, one person makes something, another person makes something on top of that and so on and so forth, it gets rather complicated, but ubuntu has a nice packageing system, not to mention debian packages are awesome.
[03:03] <bruenig> mrunagi, when you do ./configure, it will give you an error message telling you what the issue is
[03:03] <foxjazz> it's nice when you get good programs.
[03:03] <Cheesepirate> BLEEP BLEEP
[03:03] <Kitar|st> eheh
[03:03] <Kitar|st> eheh
[03:04] <MajorPayne> clever: Ohh.  How much ram does it have?  On hardware like that you may have a problem getting the xserver to work.
[03:04] <kkrusty> IndyGunFreak: I knew it!
[03:04] <Ash`> J_J my brain is exploding with all of these messages
[03:04] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[03:04] <jarrod> if instructions tell you to compile to a directory you don't have do you typically make it? and then what is the cmd to use a make file to compile to a new directory?
[03:04] <clever> MajorPayne: about 20mb with the expansion
[03:04] <clever> MajorPayne: win98 wont install
[03:04] <clever> MajorPayne: 95 wont even install without the expansion chip
[03:04] <IndyGunFreak> clever: i'd consider that a blessing
[03:04] <Cheesepirate> Ash` go download ubuntu. youll feel better\
[03:04] <clever> IndyGunFreak: i know:P
[03:04] <clever> i have about 3 of those laptops
[03:04] <clever> 2 of them have grey scale displays:P
[03:04] <CppIsWeird> dude, i want win98 on a vm in my linux box... i think thats what im going to do tommorrow. :P dig out my win98 CD. :P
[03:05] <clever> only 1 even has a cd
[03:05] <Cheesepirate> how about windows 3.1 ?
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> CppIsWeird: why?
[03:05] <Slipstreaminsano> quick one guys, how do i enable my keyboard to be used as a mouse?
[03:05] <bruenig> windows bob
[03:05] <CppIsWeird> IndyGunFreak, why not?
[03:05] <decious> has anyone gotten mathml to work 100% in mozilla, I have installed all the fonts, and the torture test looks OK, but there are still sites that complain that the fonts are installed
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> CppIsWeird: lol, ok.
[03:05] <Pirate_Hunter> |Jason8|: hre my suggestions; virus, incompatible hardware "unprobable, unless were tlaking 64x", not enough disk space, your disk is messed up like mine was the first time a burnt ubuntu or your not reading the screen properly so you're not picking up crucial intructions which you aint activating... choose one
[03:05] <foxjazz> anyone know how to get the mac address?
[03:05] <decious> mozilla ie firefox
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> CppIsWeird: i thought maybe you had a specific reason.
[03:05] <bruenig> foxjazz, ifconfig
[03:05] <foxjazz> kk
[03:05] <pete_> Slipstreaminsano: a keyboard is a bit big to be sliding across your desk all the time
[03:06] <create> i ma trying to install ubuntu on an amd sempron 3000+ with 1028mb of ram, and it is impossible for me to install using the live cd, and when installing with the text mode disc, after installing it is horribly slow at the login screen and after login, the desktop never loads... anyone have any ideas ?
[03:06] <CppIsWeird> IndyGunFreak, nah, just to bring back memories... and by memories i mean lots of freezes and blue screens and NO usb support. :P
[03:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Kitar|st: I like your theory about windows and linux
[03:06] <|Jason8|> Pirate_Hunter, okay.  I'll check for viruses.  It worked for about a month and a half on this install no problems.
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: lol, I'll take "My disk is messed up like yours", for $100
[03:06] <create> err 1280mb
[03:06] <clever> pete_: ii found optiosn in win95 and up to use the keyboards numberpad as a mouse
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> CppIsWeird: i've buried those memories, along with all the software i've bought over the years
[03:07] <CppIsWeird> lol
[03:07] <Slipstreaminsano> Ubuntu Fiesty, Live CD, in Gnome - how do i get the keybaord to be used as a mouse, i've got that bug where i can't use the mouse, but i need to be able to install first so i can patch it
[03:07] <bruenig> you bought software?
[03:07] <bruenig> even when I used windows I never bought software
[03:07] <pete_> to use the keyboard as a mouse, go to System>>preferences>>accessibility>>keyboard accessability
[03:07] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: huh???
[03:07] <IndyGunFreak> Slipstreaminsano: alternate install maybe?
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: i was just kidding, you were giving him a "take your pick" of things that could be wrong, so i jeoprdized it, and chose the one i wanted..lol
[03:08] <mrunagi> make[1] : *** No rule to make target `../avant-preferences/avant-preferences.py', needed by `avant-window-navigator.pot'.  Stop.
