[13:48] <genii> AldarHawk: unclaimed means the system is having difficulty assigning ang interrupt to it. Perhas try a boot option like pci=routeirq
[13:48] <Dr_willis> Lunks,  you could always create and use a swap FILE instead  of a swap partition, or you can use both, or you could put an addational swap partition somewhere. and use all 3. or any combo.
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> arvindenriq, can you right click files?
[13:48] <recon69> genii: thx , it's 6.06.2 lts , no idea why it wont upgrade to 6.10, will post it to the froums
[13:48] <putie> no one here knows how to?
[13:48] <Dr_willis> Lunks,  linux is very flexiable in this area
[13:48] <arvindenriq> yes i can
[13:48] <Lunks> Dr_willis: I have 1gb RAM and created a 600mb swap
[13:48] <bazhang> arvindenriq: this is gutsy or hardy
[13:49] <arvindenriq> gutsy
[13:49] <Dr_willis> Lunks,   dependig on what you are doing. that may be plenty
[13:49] <putie> hi where should I go to get help for installing my drivers?
[13:49] <bod_> arvindenriq, try      sudo apt-get purge nautilus && sudo apt-get install nautilus               or at least it fixed mine when my gutsy did that

[13:49] <Lunks> Dr_willis: I can't hibernate because of this, probably
[13:49] <Dr_willis> putie,  depends on the drives.. the ubuntu forums/wiki are a good place to start.
[13:49] <v3ctor> Lunks: nope
[13:49] <genii> AldarHawk: If your battery dies then cmos got set back to defaults. I'd poke around in there
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> arvindenriq, if you execute ps -ef |  grep naut do you get anything except grep naut?
[13:49] <Dr_willis> Lunks, Hibernation.. is somthing ive given up on. You will want a single larger swap partition for that i belive.
[13:49] <putie> no luck there it's not comprehendable what they say
[13:50] <Dr_willis> Lunks,  gparted can resize the things.
[13:50] <putie> I'm trying to find drivers for my wireless and lcd on my laptop

[13:51] <ActionParsnip> arvindenriq, thats it?
[13:51] <compwiz18> ActionParsnip: pci (sorry for not mentioning that :)
[13:51] <AldarHawk> any thoughts on re-Claiming this?
[13:51] <Dr_willis> bod_,  gparted can resize existing partitions
[13:51] <arvindenriq> ya
[13:51] <SliMM> bod_: yes, it does that automatically, when shrinking partitions
[13:51] <Lunks> Dr_willis: but to resize my home, I'd have to use a live cd, right?
[13:52] <Dr_willis> Lunks,  i ALWAYS use a live cd with gparted. :)

[13:54] <sorto> I've got a server running ubuntu, if the power goes out, then I've got 3 processes whose pid files arent cleaned up, so when the server comes up again the processes cant restart. How can I deal with this problem?
[13:54] <SliMM> bod_: since you have data on the partition you are editing, parted will probably have to move the data around, so it will take quite a while for it to be done
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> sorto, kill <pid>
[13:54] <mysterycool> see, i had ubuntu gutsy, but something was really messed up then i installed ubuntu feisty (the older version of gutsy) which also means i formatted but now when i try to install ubuntu gutsy it wont install it@

[14:14] <junaid> mic did not work
[14:14] <fiXXXerMet> I think Ubuntu has a bug.  If I install a fresh 7.10 64bit server version, things work.  As soon as I apt-get upgrade (to the new kernel), I start getting "Bus error" all over the place.  What should I do?
[14:14] <insomninja> hmm I didn't consider this a version specific question, but I'll ask there anyway (if that was the intention of the messoge?)
[14:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Wow lots of sound issues this am...

[14:34] <christa-> Jack_Sparrow, when I join #Alsa, should I provide my question again?

[14:36] <Berto> Hi - updatedb is being called every morning at 7:30am and I can't figure out how to stop it.  It's driving me nuts
[14:37] <Jack_Sparrow> christa-, Please understand that I am not just bouncing you.. I am in alsa as well, we are just trying to automate some of the information we need to speed up the process.
[14:37] <Berto> I believe it's in /etc/cron.daily/slocate
[14:37] <v3ctor> Berto: it is scheduled through cron
[14:37] <Berto> but how do i change the time that cron.daily gets run?
[14:37] <spark_> hi, i have question, how can I change in xfce4 the panels' background to any img ?
[14:37] <Crystal> hi
[14:37] <christa-> Jack_Sparrow, it's ok I pasted to alsasnack my pastebin
[14:38] <cappiz> someone here using ASUS P5E motherboard? i'm having issues with the audio... it says no gstreamer found/device
[14:38] <v3ctor> Berto: edit /etc/crontab
[14:38] <cappiz> how can i fix this problem?
[14:38] <fredmv> spark_, http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/
[14:39] <Berto> v3ctor, ahhh no, actually it's in /etc/cron.d -  i didn't change the time on that one, and it says 7:30!!
[14:39] <spark_> fredmv, thx so much
[14:39] <fredmv> spark_, no prob, that's the tutorial I used when I ran into that issue a while ago.
[14:40] <danand> Berto - look in /etc/crontab. Format is explained at top ie min hour day of month etc. * means everyday
[14:40] <Berto> danand, yeah, i did that, what this one though was /etc/cron.d/anacron
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow> cappiz, Fixing sound.. download this: http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh  #and run the script as Normal User... with this command: bash ./alsa-info.sh  ... then go to http://en.pastebin.ca/906336 and answer those questions ..  then  /join #Alsa and provide them with your question and a link to the uploaded file.
[14:41] <Berto> finally got it!  That will teach it for waking me up with hard drive crunching
[14:41] <geirha> Berto: if you have anacron installed, then anacron will run /etc/cron.daily. Edit /etc/anacrontab to change when it's run
[14:41] <v3ctor> Berto: after you change it try restarting cron
[14:41] <cappiz> ok Jack_Sparrow :)
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks
[14:41] <Berto> v3ctor, yeah cool, only way to find out now is to wait until tomorrow

I can ssh into a machine locally, but not form outside. - it appears that i am talking to the machine - it tries the rsa key (which I havent got) then doesn't let me use the password to enter - although it Does let me use the password locally (on the local network).. can anyone help?

[15:00] <AldarHawk> amorphous: does your router forward the port to the internal IP?
[15:00] <AldarHawk> you need to ensure that it is being sent to the correct place
[15:00] <lclimber> amorphous: check you router config

[15:00] <amorphous> AldarHawk, yes - its set to forward port 22 to <IP_ADDRESS> - the same address that i ssh into when local...

[15:02] <suncydu> spark_ perhaps that is the solution... I will try
[15:02] <amenado> genii thats what i suspect too, hald related issue
[15:02] <danand> amorphous - have you checked your firewall is not blocking?
[15:02] <suncydu> spark_ do you think there is something to do with that I can't access the win disk from ubuntu
[15:03] <amorphous> danand, don't think i have one... :?
[15:04] <komputes> why is an EDID needed to boot into GDM?
[15:05] <amorphous> danand, no - no firewall, and nothing in /etc/hosts.allow or deny... :(
[15:05] <amenado> AldarHawk-> do you have a directory  /sys/class/net/ath0 ?
[15:06] <spark_> suncydu, I don't know, many things can do that situation but I think when you reinstall grub It will be ok, it is the best way
[15:06] <amenado> amorphous-> verify your firewall settings with  sudo iptables -t nat -vL  and see if you have any rules or DROP policies
[15:07] <danand> amorphous - your kernel has a firewall in built - so you definitely have one :). You probably need to open port 22 for ssh access. A gui tool like firestarter will help you to do that easily enough...
[15:08] <danand> amorphous - note that for security reasons all ports are closed by default
[15:08] <amorphous> and according to ssh -vvvv - it is speaking to the machine - it's checking for private key etc... but then just not going to password - although it says its going to check private key & password when accessing the machine...
[15:08] <amenado> danand nope its the opposite, no rulez and ACCEPT is default policy
[15:08] <jrib> danand: that's not true, all ports are open by default, but no services are runnig by default
[15:08] <Lamego> no ports are blocked, if he installed the ssh server, without doing any manual firewall changes, it shouln't be blocked
[15:08] <wookienz> i want to use vnc to remote into my ubuntu machine. i know it is supported wehn i log in but i want to be able to vnc to it before anyone has logged in. presently i have to log in and then i can vnc to it. i plant o have the machine in a cupboard with no keyboard amd mounse and thus if it gets powered off i will nee to plug thos eback in unless i can figure out a way to remote desktop it...
[15:08] <wookienz> ...before any has to log in. IDEAS?
[15:09] <amorphous> amenado, danand wouldn't that mean that i wouldn't be able to get in? I Can get in if i'm on the same network (192.168....)... trying iptables now... :)
[15:09] <Lamego> wobblywu, you can setup vnc server with a specific x session that is autostrated, don't ask me how :)
[15:09] <esox> how do one restart udev on gutsy ?
[15:09] <amenado> amorphous-> i gave you the command to easily verify the rules and policy..check em
[15:10] <troxor> wookienz: you can set up GDM to log you in automatically
[15:10] <kate_mins> hello , I need some help please, I would like to use wget to download certain type of files from website (i want just file .txt) does it possible to use wget for this porpose ?
[15:10] <AldarHawk> amenado: No I do not have a /sys/class/net/ath0
[15:10] <troxor> wookienz: or run a manual vncserver in screen or something
[15:10] <jrib> kate_mins: yes, read about the -A switch in 'man wget'
[15:10] <danand> amenado, jrib - ok
[15:10] <genii> esox: It has a script in /etc/init.d   so:  sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
[15:10] <amenado> AldarHawk-> what directories you have then in /sys/class/net/  ?
[15:11] <wookienz> troxor: ok thanks ill look into it.
[15:11] <AldarHawk> eth0 and lo
[15:11] <amorphous> amenado, i did - there are no rules defined... sorry - a bit slow getting back...
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, wget http://media.ubuntu-nl.org/scripts/diskmounter.txt    something like that
[15:12] <vulcar> AldarHawk, I stepped away for a but, are you still having troubles with ndiswrapper and a wifi controller?
[15:12] <AldarHawk> yes I am vulcar
[15:12] <AldarHawk> I was away for a bit too
[15:12] <AldarHawk> :P
[15:12] <AldarHawk> in /sys/class/net/
[15:12] <amenado> AldarHawk-> that indicates that during boot, the kernel function to detect hw for your wireless has not detected your wireless device.. also confirm by your lshw -C xxx
[15:12] <kate_mins> jrib: i already looked at "man wget" but i cant understand... can you give me an example ?
[15:12] <AldarHawk> I am missing the ath0
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, do you have the url of the txt you want
[15:13] <AldarHawk> http://pastebin.com/d2ade81ea <-- lshw -C network
[15:13] <esox> genii: do you know a bit about writing udev rules ?
[15:13] <amenado> AldarHawk-> i dont know, if you have anything on the bios to activate it..go look around in the bios settings
[15:13] <hyw> I am just trying to REinstall ubuntu and I keep getting thigs, Display server shut down about 6 times in the last 90 seconds.
[15:13] <genii> esox: A bit, but far from an authority.
[15:13] <vulcar> AldarHawk: I was having trouble with it too since a recent reformat of my laptop. Upon boot up I have to run a series of commands to get my wifi to become available at the interface wlan0. I have to first start with the sudo modprobe ndiswrapper, then I have to run through a few other commands to get it up and running on my essid, you may want to try it as well if amenado hasn't already made you try them.
[15:14] <genii> esox: What are you trying to accomplish?
[15:14] <AldarHawk> I will play with the BIOS and see whats up
[15:14] <amenado> vulcar good suggestions
[15:14] <esox> genii: I need to assign a fixed /dev/input/event number to a joystick
[15:14] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: i will try to explain myself better.. i have a website that's have alots of direct download links to txt/doc/pdf files (share for free) and i would like to use wget in order to download just the .txt files ? does it possible ?
[15:14] <vulcar> Aldar I can pastebin the commands i use to get the wlan0 interface up if you would like.
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Kate_ yes
[15:15] <danand> esox - is that a usb joystick?
[15:15]  * AldarHawk will be back shortly after BIOS play
[15:15] <esox> danand: yes
[15:15] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, Can you provide me a link to one file as an example to help me help you
[15:15] <vulcar> AldarHawk - when you get back : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60160/
[15:16] <danand> esox - take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=168221
[15:16] <amorphous> danand, could you do me a favour (please)? - if you ssh -vvv<EMAIL_ADDRESS>you'll see what i mean... it doesn't even ask for a password, but does if i'm local...
[15:17] <amorphous> danand, does that make sense to you?
[15:18] <esox> danand: and also, I have a midi gear that needs a script to have firmware loaded, wich means that now, if I plug it it doesnt start. I would like to have the script runned whe I plug it... its an usb device, but script needs roots privilege
[15:18] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow I got connected with internet on the pc with grub problem... can you tell me what to do again please
[15:18] <amenado> amorphous-> it prompts for password
[15:18] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: for example http://www.textfiles.com/survival/ (let's assume that inside this website there was other types of documents (pdf,ppt,txt,doc....) and i would like to download just the .txt files without typing each document link ... (to give wget just the main html page.. and he will determine what files to download)
[15:18] <crshman> hi all, is it possible to change the chunk size on a linux software raid without losing the data?
[15:19] <danand> amorphous - i got to the password prompt too.
[15:19] <amorphous> amenado, it does..??!!?!? it doesn't for me :(
[15:19] <amenado> amorphous-> affirmative
[15:19] <backtracker> there's a command in which a stupid fish appear on your desktop swimming around, anyone know?
[15:19] <amenado> amorphous-> Permission denied, please try again.
[15:19] <amenado><EMAIL_ADDRESS>password:
[15:19] <amorphous> ok - thanks guys.... I'm not getting one from outside - does that mean it's the setup here in my laptop???
[15:19] <danand> amorphous - check the versions of ssh you are running on the client and server. some times that can be the root of the problem
[15:20] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, that is a different question...
[15:20] <backtracker> Jack_Sparrow: there's a command in which a stupid fish appear on your desktop swimming around, anyone know?
[15:20] <genii> esox: If you know the vendor codes you could make a symlink like input/myjoystick        using the /etc/udev/rules.d/50-xserver-xorg-input-wacom.rules  as a guide
[15:20] <amorphous> danand, .... ok - that could well be about right... i'm running feisty & gutsy... i'll check. Thank you :)
[15:20] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: sorry if i didn't explain myself better... can you help me ?
[15:21] <danand> amorphous - np ... now whats that password? :P
[15:21] <kumarphilly> danand, is your name anand?

[15:21] <ant0n> Is it possible to change the panel to mach-theme without compiz?
[15:21] <danand> kumarphilly - no Dan :)
[15:21] <amorphous> danand, ^^
[15:22] <AldarHawk> vulcar: I am not having luck because Ubuntu is not finding my card at all
[15:22] <isaacj87> hey guys...i just got done compiling QT4...the readme is telling me to use: su -c "make install" this is a little different than "sudo make install" could someone explain the "-c" to me?
[15:22] <AldarHawk> it is coming up UNCLAIMED
[15:22] <kumarphilly> ah ha...
[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> backtracker, it isnt a command it is a compiz plugin/adon that you need to compile.. and my fish are not stupid :)
[15:22] <vulcar> Aldarhawk try doing this : ndiswrapper -l
[15:22] <danand> amorphous - :) come on ... give us a clue ...
[15:22] <vulcar> and post the results
[15:22] <amenado> kate_mins-> try the -A.txt  option to wget and see if that works
[15:22] <FFEMTcJ> What logs can I look at to determine why my system keeps restarting it's self?
[15:22] <AldarHawk> vulcar: it runs with no output
[15:23] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow Here is the pastebin of the Grub menu problem. Hope you have time to have a look http://paste.stgraber.org/1717
[15:23] <vulcar> k have you done a ndiswrapper -i <bcmwl5.inf [windows driver]>?
[15:24] <amenado> isaacj87-> -c  is execute the following command which is make install in your example
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, You need to do some homework.. that question is beyond the scope of our support....  with some scripting it can be done, with a one liner.. doubtful
[15:24] <isaacj87> amenado, so essentially it's the same as "sudo make install"
[15:24] <AldarHawk> vulcar: bcmwl5 driver already installed
[15:24] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: ok :) thanks anyway...
[15:24] <esox> genii: ok
[15:24] <vulcar> try doing a remove of the driver and reinstalling the driver.
[15:24] <genii> FFEMTcJ: /var/log/messages   usually. Also the dmesg there can be useful it's something hardware
[15:25] <sarthor> Hi, my xp and ubuntuy dual boot was intalled, my xp got currupt, i reinstalled. boot loder got disapeared for my linux, i reinstalled ubuntu and now i am unable to see my xp, how to reinstall my boot loader, my computer have 2 hdd and each os on diffrent hdd.
[15:25] <amenado> isaacj87-> nope, you can su to someone's else account and execute that as that users id
[15:25] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: want to be my teacher ?
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, you have xp pro on the second partition?
[15:25] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: :)
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, sorry, kinda busy for that
[15:25] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: its was a joke :)
[15:25] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow. The only thing I know that it worked fine a month ago:-)
[15:25] <amenado> kate_mins-> try the -A.txt  option to wget and see if that works <-- you tried yet?
[15:25] <AldarHawk> vulcar: when I do a  -r it says No such File in Directory
[15:25] <bullgard4> Synaptic says: "xdm is prompting for login name and password, authenticating the user, and running a session." Where can I find what xdm considers a 'session'?
[15:25] <AldarHawk> :S
[15:26] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: i will try now..
[15:26] <AldarHawk> the thing that REALLY gets me is this was working up until 9:30 when my laptop battery died
[15:26] <Eagle-MaximoPC> #maximopc
[15:26] <vulcar> aldarhawk: just to be sure, the card is working properly right? could there be a possibility that the card may be defective if it is not being found by ndiswrapper?
[15:26] <Vlet> I've got postfix installed with tsl, and when I telnet in the handshake messages seem fine, but when I try to use it, it won't accept my password... Why? What logs might contain any relevent errors?
[15:27] <AldarHawk> vulcar: it was working until my laptop battery died as I stated
[15:27] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, What is the exact problem...  please write it all on oneline
[15:27] <isaacj87> amenado, hmmm...i just tried running "su -c make install" and it gave me an authentication error
[15:27] <vulcar> AldarHawk - alright,  this is a laptop card - what type of card is it?
[15:27] <csh-harmful> Any ideas why ubuntu on SUN t2000 doesn't save partion table after adding new partition on first HDD ?
[15:27] <AldarHawk> Atheros Communications
[15:27] <AldarHawk> if you read the pastebin you would see that :P
[15:28] <amenado> isaacj87-> you may as well use  sudo instead of su,  as it requires root to install to certain dirs
[15:28] <FFEMTcJ> genii: This is from messages.. http://pastebin.be/9880 and this is dmseg where it looks like the restart happened.. http://pastebin.be/9881
[15:28] <vulcar> AldarHawk: try the following command "find / -name bcmwl5.inf"
[15:28] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow The problem is the grub menu loadss, whern it loads I cant choose options. Like if I want to boot on ubuntu or windows. The marker don't move when I hit th arrow keys. I do not know if it has the same problem, but when I try to access the win disk from ubuntu I get this error: hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000
[15:29] <AldarHawk> not there
[15:29] <vulcar> you will see quite a few permission denied but there should be some that list where the bcmwl5.inf file is located.
[15:29] <isaacj87> amenado, thanks for the info :)
[15:29] <kate_mins> Jack_Sparrow: its working fine :) thanks Jack ... by the way.. can i define 2 types of files ?
[15:29] <AldarHawk> no I have done the sudo hack to be root :P
[15:29] <AldarHawk> there is no bcmwl5 file
[15:30] <esox> genii: in this file, they uses SYSFS, whats about ATTRS ?
[15:30] <vulcar> hmm, and it says that it is currently installed.  what version of ndiswrapper utils do you have installed?
[15:30] <AldarHawk> 1.9
[15:30] <Jack_Sparrow> kate_mins, not sure...  I dont use it much
[15:31] <amenado> AldarHawk-> what do you have in /lib/firmware/`uname -r` ? pls paste in pastebin
[15:31] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, interesting..  so the options are correct, it just wont let you chose any of them
[15:31] <vulcar> AldarHawk, you may want to try doing a remove on the ndiswrapper commons and utils and try a reinstall to see if it will clear the file to reload it through ndiswrapper.
[15:32] <backtracker> Jack_Sparrow: free the fish
[15:32] <backtracker> ;)
[15:32] <AldarHawk> 2.6.22-14-generic
[15:32] <AldarHawk> that is all in the firmware folder
[15:32] <ASTX813> "sudo mount -t hfsplus /dev/sdc2 /media/macdrive" all I get is "mount: not a directory"  Haven't had any luck on google or forums.  Anyone run into this?
[15:32] <Jack_Sparrow> backtracker, did you still want the link
[15:32] <omar_> hi guys
[15:32] <amenado> AldarHawk-> am looking for bunch of firmware files...
[15:32] <omar_> where can i find the .login file
[15:33] <Jack_Sparrow> backtracker, Sorry, but I am trying to troubleshoot a sound issue in alsa
[15:33] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow Yes that's correct. First the menu did not show when hitting escape, then I edited it to show menu as default. Now I cant move the marker. And I'm sure it's not the keyboard. All the keys work in f.eks bios. And the grub menu was fine a month ago
[15:33] <genii> esox: I imagine you could use any attribute that is unique to that device as a condition to making the symlink.
[15:33] <omar_> i wanted to set environment variable
[15:33] <amenado> AldarHawk-> thats an empty dir?
[15:33] <mamour_> What's a good program for talking to google talk clients?
[15:33] <AldarHawk> okay I will type out the diretory
[15:33] <genii> esox: Usually the vendor code and device identifier codes are sufficient

[15:34] <amenado> esox->  i wish i can help you..that udev rules are difficult to comprehend at first
[15:34] <bytecode> Hi, quick query re: nautilus and strange characters in files names - I get theses question marks on esoteric characters, is this a simple "select new character map" issue? or something else? example: Sebesty�n M�rta

[15:35] <mamour_> I want to use the voice functionality of gtalk
[15:35] <mamour_> not just text chat
[15:35] <ArthurArchnix> why do people still talk about beryl... is it still around?
[15:35] <hccmb2> maybe it has an different name
[15:36] <riddlebox> what command could I use to email an attachment to me?
[15:36] <hccmb2> emerald theme manager , i got here
[15:36] <amenado> FFEMTcJ-> nothing can be gleamed from what you posted, maybe have to look at other log files
[15:36] <styrman> is it possible to syncronize the gnome loading with a theme?.. currently I see gnome default skin load, then after a few seconds my theme loads
[15:36] <genii> esox: I'm not sure about using a symlink of the same type the system would like to automatically assign. You'd be safer with something unique like myjoystick   or such
[15:36] <FFEMTcJ> amenado: which other files would you suggest? I'm new to ubuntu/linux, so I don't know where to look.
[15:37] <esox> amenado: yes they are ? you mean you could help me ? or you couldn't ? sorry my english has some limits...
[15:37] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: pretty strange to just have computer randomly reboot. Can you detect no patterns? Ie., if you leave it along for about 20 minutes...

[15:39] <Dragon2> How to install ubuntu from iso?
[15:40] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: Are you sure it's not just activating the screensaver, then giving you the login prompt?
[15:40] <amenado> esox am saying am still learning the udev rules too, id like to learn it..but a bit difficult for me..
[15:40] <skillz> Dragon2:  you need to burn the ISO file onto a CD
[15:40] <skillz> and then boot from that
[15:40] <esox> amenado: yes they are...
[15:40] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: all the programs I had open are gone
[15:40] <skillz> it should start to install automatilcy

[15:40] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: can you suspend and resume, and hibernate and resume?
[15:41] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: or do those cause restarts?
[15:41] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: dunno.. never done it.. don't particularly care to..
[15:41] <skillz> im runing compiz fusion, but when i do all the title bars of every window (the one that contains, the - square and X to close and expand) dissapear??

[15:41] <genii> esox: You could pick some number higher than what the system would assign then
[15:41] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: well, try. Because my guess right now is that instead of suspending or hiberating (whatever your computer is setup to do) it reboots instead.

[15:44] <Pici> skillz: calm down.

[15:48] <Scunizi> I just got a new Logitech "wave" keyboard and had to choose the Logitech Access layout to get the space bar to work..although it's not 100%.  There's some lag with space bar key press and actual space being generated. Anyone with a clue as to how to set this up correctly on Ubuntu?
[15:49] <Pici> soundray, ArthurArchnix: I understand you both are trying to help, but we'd rather keep things non combatative and civil next time around.
[15:50] <soundray> Pici: the way to keep this channel civil IMO is not to tolerate people like mamour. But then, maybe that's why I'm not an op :)
[15:50] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: is there even a need to try your suggestion if its currently set to never sleep?
[15:50] <janerik> Anyone can help me access win disk??? Can't mount it
[15:51] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, are you in ubuntu on the same computer?
[15:51] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: It's a long shot. But it wouldn't hurt. But no, I can't see why it would help troubleshoot if you're computer is set to never sleep or hibernate
[15:51] <soundray> janerik: have you followed the guide? What command are you using?
[15:51] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow Yes. And I think thats may be the same problem
[15:52] <broadcast> hi
[15:52] <Binky> Hello, can anyone help me set up my display drivers, i finally got two monitors working, using nvidea driver but now the screen is so massive it doesn't fit on the monitor no matter what resolution i set.
[15:52] <crshman> anyone know if the mailing lists on vger.kernel.org are down?
[15:52] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: try posting full contents of /var/log/debug and /kern.log and /messages and /user
[15:52] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow not the same problem, but mabe thats because I can' access win in grub
[15:52] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: thats what I thought.. http://pastebin.be/9882 is my whole dmesg.. maybe theres something in there somewhere else that i didnt post earlier
[15:53] <soundray> crshman: the web site seems to be down, so it's well possible. Give it a day.
[15:53] <erUSUL> crshman: i haven't receive my daily bunch of kernel mails that's for sure
[15:53] <fiXXXerMet> I think Ubuntu has a bug.  If I install a fresh 7.10 64bit server version, things work.  As soon as I apt-get upgrade (to the new kernel), I start getting "Bus error" all over the place.  What should I do?
[15:53] <ArthurArchnix> dmesg is probably not too helpful.... go to >system >preferences and  >system log and pastebin those logs i listed.
[15:53] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: ^^

[16:00] <vulcar> AldarHawk, hmm, from your pastebin it doesn't seem that you have the firmware for that card on ubuntu, let me investigate momentarily.

[16:00] <bartmon> Hi! I'm having problems when connecting to my phone via bluetooth. Sometimes I get the file list but sometimes it seems there's some sort of timeout. Are there any troubleshooting programs you recommend?
[16:00] <Eagle-MaximoPC> yes, what topic
[16:00] <FFEMTcJ> AldarHawk: it says no ipv6 routers present?
[16:01] <AldarHawk> are you attempting to run in IPv6?
[16:01] <AldarHawk> if so it will fail
[16:01] <vulcar> Aldarhawk: battery failure can cause issues with the filesystem. I have had my laptop battery die and it deleted files i was currently accessing.
[16:01] <AldarHawk> okay then...how do I fixy?
[16:01] <FFEMTcJ> I have no idea.. why would that only cause reboots every once in a while?

[16:02] <soundray> |Dreams|: I think kino should be able to do that
[16:02] <|Dreams|> kino.. thanks i will loook into it
[16:02] <FFEMTcJ> AldarHawk: and how would i change it?
[16:02] <soundray> |Dreams|: the other thing you could do is to use split (man split), but you'll end up with non-standard wmvs
[16:02] <Ashfire908> I got an error message when i booted the livecd (without the splash screen) and it said something about using the driver "8139too" because the driver "8139so" was not the correct one. how do i set it to  use the "8139too" drive?

[16:05] <Ashfire908> erUSUL: so it's normal to get that after the "Loading Please Wait..." message?

[16:07] <janerik> Jack_Sparrow I may be doing it wrong, but I did not get it to work
[16:07] <AldarHawk> vulcar: you still kicking or did my question put you to sleepmode?
[16:07] <hyw> after editing something in /etc/x11  how do I save?
[16:07] <Macen> had no problems what so ever until i tried to access the apache web server running from the mac
[16:07]  * AldarHawk has a tendancy to code people into sleep 600
[16:07] <Macen> i can use the hosts internet connection etc
[16:07] <Macen> but i can't see the apache web server
[16:07] <AldarHawk> hyw: what editor?
[16:08] <Macen> which is strange because i can in the windows vmware
[16:08] <vulcar> AldarHawk, still kicking, just wandering how it to bring it back.
[16:08] <soundray> I can't use OpenGL programs properly. Second time I try, I get a hard freeze. I use the ati driver (fglrx seems to be not compatiple) and it's an integrated Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF
[16:08] <Ashfire908> erUSUL: it's just the kernel has been freezing and the screen showing garbage when i try to boot the cd sometimes
[16:08] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, You must have serious issues on that drive

[16:08] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: ok.. any idea whats causing that?
[16:09] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, is this what you typed into a term  sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/locked-drive -o force
[16:09] <vulcar> AldarHawk, do you have anything on the laptop that you desperatley need? you could try a reformat/repair installation of ubuntu and see if the firmware is back on there.
[16:09] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, You should read the last entry on that page I linked.. it may help
[16:10] <AldarHawk> yes I do vulcar

[16:10] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: March 19 at 11:42 everything goes sideways.
[16:11] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: What kind of network cards you have?
[16:11] <vulcar> AldarHawk, alright, hmm let me query my friend about this issue to see if he can think of anything i am missing.
[16:11] <AldarHawk> okay thanks man
[16:11] <bartmon> My bluetooth connection with my ohine are timing out. Is there any tool to debug/troubleshoot bluetooth connections?
[16:11] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: onboard.. on an Asus motherboard
[16:11] <AldarHawk> I am trying to get ahold of my guru but from australia but he is not responding.
[16:11] <vulcar> my guy is in denmark and may be asleep right now.
[16:12] <AldarHawk> as is mine...
[16:12] <AldarHawk> though he is normally up and drinking right now :P
[16:12] <janerik_> Jack_Sparrow Sorry got unconnected. Did you get the error message??
[16:12] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: that's it? hmm... I don't know why, but there's some bad messages about MAC addressing in your bootup messages. Then there's network activity around the times when things go bad and a restart happens.
[16:13] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik_, I saw the error...
[16:13] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, is this what you typed into a term  sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/locked-drive -o force
[16:13] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik, You should read the last entry on that page I linked.. it may help
[16:13] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: Can you check your bios and see if your network card is using some powersaving features?

[16:14] <komputes> anyone know a way of listing all folders in the working directory and how many MB they contain?
[16:15] <soundray> sarthor: you need a boot entry for Windows in /boot/grub/menu.lst. There is a commented sample starting at line 13
[16:15] <jin> komputes: tehre is no option to add workspace.. I have compiz enabled by the way
[16:15] <soundray> komputes: man du
[16:15] <janerik_> Jack_Sparrow What can we read of that??? I can see the disk in konqueror, but its not mounted. Do you think that can be the reason why Grub is not working right?
[16:15] <sarthor> soundray, i have lost 3 of my hours on this, please can  you help me. i will paste that in pastebin
[16:16] <soundray> komputes: 'du -s *' would do it
[16:16] <soundray> sarthor: okay, paste the file and also the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' pls
[16:16] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: I dont see anything about power saving for the network cards.. but "Suspend Mode" is on auto
[16:16] <sarthor> soundray, OK. 1 min
[16:16] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: turn that off.
[16:16] <Jack_Sparrow> janerik_, If you can see it in Konq then you have a problem on your windows drive and you should see #WIndows for help, they may want you to fix the mbr just to point to windows, but that can be changed back later
[16:17] <FFEMTcJ> ok.. and power on by lan is enabled
[16:17] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: turn that off too
[16:17] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: disable... whatever your bios calls it.
[16:18] <FFEMTcJ> The suspend mode has Auto, S1 (POS) only and S3 only.. so I dont know that there is an off
[16:19] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ:  no S0?
[16:19] <FFEMTcJ> ArthurArchnix: i dont know what no SO means.. but those are the only three options for Suspend Mode
[16:20] <soundray> sarthor: how are you getting on?
[16:20] <vulcar> AldarHawk, I have my guy on chat, let me talk with him to see what could be going on.
[16:20] <AldarHawk> thank you vulcar
[16:20] <DrIP> hi all
[16:21] <sarthor> soundray, i am on the way.. pasted that.. but internet is much slow with me.. just a min more please
[16:21] <soundray> sarthor: okay. Don't forget to let me have the URL when you're ready :)
[16:21] <DrIP> i need a wireless expert who can help make my computer a gateway to my wireless network
[16:21] <sarthor> soundray, ok.
[16:22] <ashley> If I want to use the following netmask: <IP_ADDRESS>, where does the IP need to start from?
[16:22] <antz123> Hi, I'm new to ubuntu. Just a quick question, if i get an external usb hard drive, (formatted as NTFS) would I be able to read and write files onto it using ubuntu okay?
[16:22] <ashley> <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:22] <dark_Harmonics> antz123 yes
[16:22] <dark_Harmonics> it will work fine
[16:22] <AldarHawk> you cannot write to NTFS in Linux antz123
[16:22] <sarthor> soundray, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60166/
[16:23] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: I've got to run... but I feel like you've got power problems. You're computer's bios or hard-ware is battling with the OS for control of the sleep resume... just my guess at this point.
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> yes you can AldarHawk
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> i do it here
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> on this computer
[16:23] <AldarHawk> unless of course Microsux released their code
[16:23] <AldarHawk> hmm...
[16:23] <jetscreamer> antz123: yes just use ntfs-3g
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> lol
[16:23] <AldarHawk> last I recalled you could not
[16:23] <ashley> You've been able to write to ntfs for a while
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> ya ntfs03g is installed by default
[16:23] <FFEMTcJ> ok.. thanks ArthurArchnix
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> in gutsy
[16:23] <jetscreamer> do not use the kernel's native ntfs driver to write with though
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> or above
[16:23] <AldarHawk> good to know :P
[16:23] <AldarHawk> I have been using Debian 3.1 most of my time so... :P
[16:23] <dark_Harmonics> i dunno i use mine without errors
[16:23] <ArthurArchnix> FFEMTcJ: If you can get someone eles's attention, point them to about March 19 at 11:42...
[16:24] <jetscreamer> use ntfs-3g... reading is ok with it
[16:24] <jetscreamer> but not write
[16:24] <antz123> so I;m guessing then as soon as I plug in the external hard drive, ubuntu should detect it automatically so I can read and write files to it?
[16:24] <bartmon> jetscreamer: Writing works great as well.
[16:24] <jetscreamer> at least read
[16:24] <dark_Harmonics> if you will be using this with just the ubuntu computer it might be best to just give it the EXT3 formatting
[16:24] <dark_Harmonics> writing works perfectly for me but maybe you have contrary experience?
[16:24] <sarthor> soundray, you got the link? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60166/
[16:24] <antz123> I will be using the hard drive with ubuntu and vista
[16:24] <DrIP> any wirlreless skliled people?
[16:24] <AldarHawk> eww
[16:24] <patogen> Can you restart the cdrom in some way? I ran virtualbox and now I cannot use my cd-rom anymore
[16:24] <dark_Harmonics> i have had an issue with an external NTFS not mounting properly
[16:24] <AldarHawk> Vista
[16:25] <jetscreamer> are you two sure you're not using ntfs-3g to write?
[16:25] <patogen> k3b can't find it
[16:25] <dark_Harmonics> something about needing to force it to mount to reset some logs or something
[16:25] <patogen> mount cannot mount devices
[16:25] <patogen> eject cannot be used to eject CD's
[16:25] <dark_Harmonics> ntfs-3g is built into gutsy
[16:25] <jetscreamer> dark_Harmonics: that's when the ntfs volume is marked dirty
[16:25] <soundray> sarthor: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60167/  -- I have changed line 192 to reflect the fact that Windows is on your second hard disk. However, it's possible that Windows will refuse to boot if it's on the second. You may have to switch your cables around and make the second disk the first.
[16:25] <jetscreamer> you can use the map command in menu.lst sarthor
[16:25] <antz123> I will borrow a friends external hard disk and see what happens
[16:25] <jetscreamer> no need to move cables
[16:26] <dark_Harmonics> jetscreamer: ok i have had that issue before i just dont know the techie reason why
[16:26] <FFEMTcJ> AldarHawk: let me know when you have fixed your wireless stuff..
[16:26] <AldarHawk> I will...
[16:26] <dark_Harmonics> antz123 it seems to work fine for me
[16:26] <FFEMTcJ> ty
[16:26] <AldarHawk> vulcar is still looking into it
[16:26] <AldarHawk> :S
[16:26] <antz123> ok thanks
[16:26] <soundray> jetscreamer: could you please edit the pastebin accordingly, for my benefit as well as sarthor's?
[16:27] <sarthor> jetscreamer, Yes that will be better
[16:27] <vulcar> AldarHawk, He says try removing the module, reboot and add the module back in. also before rebooting uninstall ndiswrapper-common and ndiswrapper-utils reboot and reinstall those then install the driver again.
[16:28] <leipepo> hello
[16:28] <jetscreamer> sarthor: http://linux.hfds.com/files/menu.lst
[16:28] <AldarHawk> which command do I use to remove said module?
[16:29] <jetscreamer> sarthor:
[16:29] <jin> what tool do you install to get more compiz configurations?
[16:29] <jetscreamer> map (hd0) (hd1)
[16:29] <jetscreamer> map (hd1) (hd0)
[16:29] <sarthor> jetscreamer, yes
[16:29] <leipepo> i need to add a partition to ubuntu gutsy server, anybody got exerince with it?
[16:29] <pochi_> en castellano tampoco no?
[16:29] <leipepo> experince*
[16:29] <jetscreamer> leipepo: cfdisk /dev/whatever if you have freespace
[16:30] <AldarHawk> vulcar: which command do I use to remove said module?
[16:30] <jetscreamer> rmmod
[16:30] <jetscreamer> maybe
[16:30] <vulcar> I am looking into that, i am not too knowledgable on removing modules but he said the command is rmmod <module name> but I would query someone with more knowledge on removing modules in IRC [I would ask him but he is intermittent in responses,  afk fixing dinner
[16:30] <AldarHawk> and the mod name?
[16:30] <jetscreamer> !info modconf
[16:30] <leipepo> also know how i can format that as ntfs?
[16:30] <ubotu> modconf (source: modconf): Device Driver Configuration. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.3ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 1242 kB, installed size 4128 kB
[16:30] <leipepo> ife got 200 gigs of free space
[16:31] <noodlesgc> !es | pochi_
[16:31] <ubotu> pochi_: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[16:31] <jin> what tool do you install to get more compiz configurations?
[16:31] <soundray> !ccsm | jin
[16:31] <ubotu> jin: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion
[16:31] <noodlesgc> jin compizconfig-settings-manager
[16:31] <jetscreamer> leipepo: probably install ntfsprogs and mkfs.ntfs /dev/whatever ... but i've never made ntfs with linux so ymmv
[16:32] <pochi_> can some one help me reconfigureing time zones in ubuntu 6.06?
[16:32] <gpb> anyone good with lvm's in here?
[16:32] <soundray> pochi_: what do you want to do?
[16:32] <jetscreamer> dpkg-reconfigure tzconfig maybe
[16:32] <soldats> pochi_: what time zone
[16:32] <pochi_> it does not work
[16:32] <AldarHawk> anyone know which module my card would use?  hard to remove if it is not there
[16:33] <soldats> pochi_: "tzselect" in terminal
[16:33] <pochi_> the problem is when I reconfigure the zone and restart the server
[16:33] <sarthor> soundray, that change in 192 did not working.. and i want to fix this without changing cables
[16:33] <unimatrix9> hi there
[16:33] <soundray> sarthor: so follow jetscreamer's advice
[16:33] <soldats> pochi_: does it keep reverting back to a wrong time zone
[16:33] <jetscreamer> sarthor: map.. man menu.lst
[16:33] <pochi_> yes!
[16:33] <sarthor> soundray, ok.
[16:34] <jetscreamer> actually
[16:34] <pochi_> thats correct
[16:34] <unimatrix9> i accidently removed the top gnome panel, is there an way to  get the original ubuntu top gnome panel back?
[16:34] <soldats> pochi_: you can set the time zone in you .profile file
[16:34] <jetscreamer> apt-get install grub-doc && info grub rather
[16:34] <pochi_> soldats, but there si no other way to do it?
[16:34] <pochi_> tzconfig?
[16:34] <soldats> pochi_: what time zone
[16:34] <soundray> sarthor: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60168/
[16:35] <pochi_> soldats: for example from south georgia to buenos aires/argentina
[16:35] <sarthor> soundray, what line yiou changed in the last link?
[16:35] <pochi_> soldats:_allways talking about ubuntu 6.06
[16:35] <jetscreamer> he added the map directives
[16:36] <wirrwarr> heya~
[16:36] <jetscreamer> afaict
[16:36] <sarthor> ok. i got
[16:36] <jetscreamer> oh
[16:36] <soldats> pochi_: well do you want to have the same time zone always being used
[16:36] <soundray> sarthor: 193, 194
[16:36] <jetscreamer> you don't want to do that in the debian automagic section
[16:36] <soundray> sarthor: next time look first, then ask
[16:36] <sarthor> soundray, shud i have to rechange hd1 to hd0, ? the old one
[16:36] <jetscreamer> it will be overwritten
[16:36] <sarthor> soundray, Ok. i will do as you said brother
[16:36] <geofffffff> Quick question. I'm trying to set up Gutsy as a drbl server. Got 2 nics in the machine, but it seems that the drbl installer needs them both to have IP addresses at install time. How do I do that?
[16:37] <pochi_> soldats: yes, I want to configure the timezone and, after restart server, mantain that configuration
[16:37] <jetscreamer> not positive where you would put it... kopts?
[16:37] <soundray> jetscreamer: it's not inside, it's just the comment that confuses
[16:37] <jetscreamer> oh ok
[16:37] <jetscreamer> i didn't look hard
[16:37] <[chr0n0s]> sometimes when i try to play some music/movie, there is no sound output, i think that is because some application accessing sound device, so how to i restart the sound system, or something like that so that my resources are freed
[16:37] <soldats> pochi_: ok thats an easy fix, what time zone do youlive in currently
[16:37] <vignesh> how do i install gtk+ ??
[16:37] <pochi_> buenos aires/argentina
[16:37] <quickbrownfox> if i set up my computer to dual boot with two operating systems and I want to delete the other system now and keep ubuntu , is there any way to do that withouth loosing my ubuntu settings and files
[16:37] <soldats> [chr0n0s]: i think you have to modprobe alsa
[16:38] <soldats> pochi_: ok one second please
[16:38] <DG19075> unimatrix9: try this:
[16:38] <DG19075> I haven't tried this, but your settings for the panel are stored in
[16:38] <DG19075> ~/.gconf/apps/panel
[16:38] <DG19075> You could probably just delete that directory, then logout/login and
[16:38] <DG19075> you'd be back to the system defaults.
[16:38] <DG19075> Of course you'd probably want to make a backup first, or test it out
[16:38] <FloodBot2> DG19075: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:38] <DG19075> on a different account.
[16:39] <vignesh> how do i install gtk+ ??
[16:39] <linunut> vignesh: Open up synaptices, search for gtk, install.
[16:39] <AldarHawk> open the manager
[16:39] <vignesh> there isn't gtk+ over there..
[16:39] <soundray> pochi_: use 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' to set your timezone
[16:40] <linunut> vignesh: It's probably not CALLED gtk+. You probably want gtk2 or something like that. Although I'm pretty sure on a standard install gtk in installed by default.
[16:40] <soldats> pochi_: add this line to  ~/.profile  at the end "TZ='America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires'; export TZ"
[16:40] <pochi_> soundray:_ yes I did that, but I am using ubuntu 6.06 server
[16:40] <vignesh> linunut, okie.. ty..
[16:40] <soldats> pochi_: then restart X
[16:40] <AldarHawk> if you are doing a lot in the shell you should 'sudo su -' this helps you not have to type in sudo all the time :)
[16:40] <linunut> vignesh: Yep.
[16:40] <soundray> pochi_: I think then it's 'sudo tzconfig'
[16:40] <[chr0n0s]> soldats, nope. it says Module alsa not found
[16:41] <soldats> soundray: tzselect
[16:41] <pochi_> soundray: may be I am wrong but I did not found any tzdata in ubuntu 6.06
[16:41] <[chr0n0s]> soldats, i tried restarting alsa-utils in init.d, doesn't work either
[16:42] <pochi_> soldats:_ what about root profile? same thing whit it?
[16:42] <soldats> [chr0n0s]: hrmm well not sure, best bet is a restart
[16:42] <pochi_> soldats: I am not using X
[16:42] <soldats> pochi_: no just your user profile
[16:42] <AldarHawk> vulcar: any luck?  still not working
[16:42] <AldarHawk> :@
[16:42] <wizo> hey, how do i find out the permissions of a folder from the terminal in numerical format
[16:42] <[chr0n0s]> soldats, restart works, but i don't want to restart :S
[16:42] <sarthor> soundray, i change like jetscreamer said, but no success..
[16:42] <soldats> pochi_: ok well then after you add the line log out than back in
[16:42] <pochi_> soldats:_it is a server, ubuntu 6.06 server
[16:43] <wizo> ls -al shows the permissions in the wrx-etc-etc format
[16:43] <soldats> wizo: ls -larsh
[16:43] <vulcar> AldarHawk, did rmmod <module name>  then modprobe miod name
[16:43] <soldats> wizo: oh wait oops
[16:43] <soundray> pochi_: in dapper, you should set the timezone permanently with 'sudo tzconfig' (soldats)
[16:43] <AldarHawk> what is the module name?  I do not know it
[16:43] <geoffff> I think I figured out part of my problem...both nics were set to roaming mode
[16:44] <soldats> soundray: ahh ok i set in in ~/.profile using tzselect to find the correct one
[16:44] <geoffff> Now eth2 is pulling an ipv4 address, and eth1 has an ipv6
[16:44] <geoffff> How can I force eth1 to use ipv4?
[16:44] <soundray> soldats: that doesn't achieve a system-wide change
[16:45] <soldats> i only have one user, (me) but ill keep that in mind thanks
[16:46] <pochi_> soundray: I am loged as root, wy I must sudo tzconfig?
[16:46] <Jack_Sparrow> pochi_, Did you set a root password?
[16:47] <pochi_> soundray: I did that  tzconfgi
[16:47] <jrib> wizo: you can use stat
[16:47] <pochi_> but when I restart de server it does not keap the zone
[16:48] <pochi_> Jack_Sparrow: yes. I did that
[16:48] <Jack_Sparrow> pochi_, Just asking as it is something we try to avoid
[16:48] <pochi_> the problem is when I restart the server, it does not keap the new zone
[16:49] <soundray> pochi_: tzconfig should update /etc/timezone.  If it doesn't, then /etc/timezone is overwritten by some boot process.
[16:49] <soundray> *doesn't work after reboot
[16:50] <pochi_> sondray: yes, tzconfig updates these two files, this ubuntu 6.06 is freshly instaled
[16:51] <wizo> jrib: stat?
[16:51] <sarthor> soundray, i can see that you are busy? should i wait here?
[16:51] <jrib> wizo: yes, it's a command
[16:52] <soundray> sarthor: ask the channel, then everyone will see it
[16:52] <lufis> Is there some way to get all of the restricted codec packages in one place and install them on a computer with no internet access?
[16:53] <DrIP> brb-restart
[16:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !aptoncd | lufis
[16:53] <ubotu> lufis: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers
[16:53] <Christoz> hello room!!!
[16:54] <vulcar> AldarHawk, i had to walk away are you still having troubles
[16:54] <soldats> pochi_: open your file called "/etc/timezone" and see if the correct time zone is there. it should be "America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires"
[16:54] <Christoz> I have a little problem with the firestarter app ...you know ,the iptables manager...
[16:54] <lufis> Jack_Sparrow: thanks
[16:54] <Jack_Sparrow> np hope it helps
[16:54] <sarthor> I need help, my xp got disapeared after installing ubuntu, its my fdisk -l and also menu.lst here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60166/
[16:55] <Christoz> ...but i'm not sure if it's a real problem or the way this app works
[16:55] <lufis> Also, the problem has since been solved, but what should I do if I change my screen resolution and xorg henceforth is broken? In hardy, xorg pretty much ignores xorg.conf, so sudo dpkg-reconfigure doesn't work anymore. What to do, besides completely reinstalling?
[16:55] <soundray> sarthor: what happens when you select the Windows option from the grub menu?
[16:55] <pochi_> soldats: that is correct tzconfig do that, the problem is when I restart the server.  It is a new server, with nothing instaled but a standard instalation
[16:55] <mogli> hi, i need the tool "convert" in the command line, how can i find out which package i need to install ?
[16:55] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, Did you add a drive in order to install ubuntu
[16:55] <yakman_> my ${java_home} variable needs changing, whats the name of conf file or something for it?
[16:56] <jrib> mogli: imagemagick
[16:56] <soldats> pochi_: well something is wrong im not sure of then
[16:56] <mogli> jrib: thx !!
[16:56] <sarthor> soundray, i dont remember, Sorry brother, i will check again. but the xp did not start.. and there was errro..
[16:56] <pochi_> soldats: thank you ver much any way
[16:56] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, No.. did not added any drive
[16:57] <yakman_> whats the conf file or something like that for changing ${java_home} environmental var
[16:57] <Christoz> While it's running the system tray icon dissapears ...i've checked the process board and saw that was truly terminated ..
[16:57] <suraj> I do i connect to internet through other computer in the same network....
[16:58]  * AldarHawk still is struggling with wireless on his laptop
[16:58] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, line 192   hd0,0    is first partition of first drive not 1,0      which is where it seems to be
[16:58] <suraj> How do i connect to internet through other computer in the same network?
[16:58] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, i did like this also http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60167/
[16:59] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, but there was no success
[16:59] <eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee> ola
[16:59] <Christoz> While it's running the system tray icon dissapears ...i've checked the process board and saw that was truly terminated ...
[16:59] <soundray> sarthor: you haven't used the map option as suggested by jetscreamer -- why?!
[16:59] <eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee> in is Spain
[16:59]  * AldarHawk is getting angry with his lack of WiFi capabilities...and cannot reformat because I have my book on it :(
[16:59] <eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee> please
[16:59] <sarthor> soundray, i used that also.
[17:00] <sarthor> soundray, Jack_Sparrow i used this also http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60168/
[17:01] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, I am a bit confused.. Where is your windows install supposed to be.. on a logical in extended partition on the second drive?
[17:01] <ubuntuu> Hello. The only sound working for me is the systembeeps. What should I do?
[17:01] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60166/ has sarthor's fdisk -l output
[17:01] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, how to check that now?? that where the windows is installed??
[17:02] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, sdb5 6 and 7 look more like data storage and the windows install is not there.
[17:02] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, did you have three windows partitons for data when you had windows
[17:03] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, other that drive C that is
[17:03] <vulcar> AldarHawk, you present - did the rmmod and modprobe for ndiswrapper work?
[17:03] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, when i installed windows.. that was on drive D, but how to check on linux that wat was D?
[17:03] <Christoz> is this a bug or the process managers terminating it ...for the name of usage memory
[17:03] <AldarHawk> I do not know the module name vulcar
[17:03] <AldarHawk> so I cannot do a rmmod
[17:03] <vulcar> AldarHawk, rmmod ndiswrapper
[17:04] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, really i dont remember that how many drives have ntfs partition.
[17:04] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, do you have three mounted ntfs drives on your desktop now?
[17:04] <AldarHawk> Module ndiswrapper does not exist in /proc/modules/
[17:04] <vulcar> k now type ndiswrapper -v
[17:04] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, I am lost? i can do give you inforamtion my the command you tell me apply.
[17:06] <soundray> sarthor: is your ubuntu a fresh installation?
[17:06] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, Are you in ubuntu
[17:06] <amenado> AldarHawk-> you do have an ethernet port on your laptop right?
[17:06] <AldarHawk> vulcar: http://pastebin.com/d7b6c5abf
[17:06] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, I am thinkink he should   sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-1    then    sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /media/ntfs-1
[17:06] <AldarHawk> yes but none where I am :P
[17:06] <AldarHawk> thus the WiFi
[17:07] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, i am in ubuntu, soundray no i have installed before
[17:07] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: that's not going to help boot Windows -- is it?
[17:07] <amenado> AldarHawk-> then go to where you'd be able to access ethernet ...
[17:07] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-1    then    sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /media/ntfs-1
[17:07] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, it will help us to know if he erased his windows os.. which is what I think he did
[17:08] <vulcar> AldarHawk, k, i think this command is right - correct me if i am wrong - sudo apt-get uninstall ndiswrapper
[17:08] <ubuntuu> I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 and my sound is acting strange. I only get the "somethings-wrong" beeps through speakers/headphones. When I try to watch movies or play music I get nothing. What should I do?
[17:08] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, he has three ntfs...  I say we should mount all three and look for a windows install..
[17:08] <AldarHawk> I do not want to start over on my system is the base of my argument
[17:08] <ttt--> is it normal for kpdf to be very slow? (taking 10seconds to load the next page)
[17:08] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: what about the fat32 -- that's where I thought his XP was, in /dev/sdb1
[17:08] <AldarHawk> I am wanting this fixed without having to rebuild the machine
[17:09] <steph__> i everybody. If I have a alpha 4 image, wich I have installed, then upgraded, will it be the same as alpha 6?
[17:09] <steph__> *Hi
[17:09] <vulcar> AldarHawk, you dont have to rebuild the machine, you can remove the ndiswrapper then reinstall the ndiswrapper and it may work, thats why my guru is saying.
[17:09] <AldarHawk> I did that already
[17:09] <AldarHawk> not working
[17:09] <sarthor> soundray, Jack_Sparrow here is some info about my windows xp partition http://www.4shared.com/file/41280707/9554eed7/Screenshot.html?

[17:09] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sdb is one huge extended.. odd place for a windows install
[17:09] <steph__> sory
[17:10] <amenado> AldarHawk-> your wifi chip is not even detected..you only showed earlier your laptop detects the ethernet..
[17:10] <soundray> ttt--: on an older system and a complex PDF it can take that long
[17:10] <alertup> Hello
[17:10] <AldarHawk> amenado: it is detected!  just coming up UNCLAIMED
[17:10] <amenado> AldarHawk-> which laptop brand and model you have?
[17:10] <AldarHawk> they are different
[17:10] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, I dont see a fat32
[17:10] <alertup> Can I get some help
[17:10] <AldarHawk> Acer Aspire 3502LCi
[17:10] <ttt--> it's a recent system. isnt it just loading some text and a picture. why is it longer than a html page?
[17:10] <amenado> AldarHawk-> can you paste that again about unclaimed...i have erased my buffer since
[17:11] <AldarHawk> http://pastebin.com/d2ade81ea
[17:11] <Ashfire908> i followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence but it doesn't to have appeared to booted with persistent correctly
[17:11] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: what's /dev/sdb1 then?
[17:11] <mols> Hello. Need help with install Atheros AR5006EG WiFi. There are one problem, I not see it with lspci. In Windows it works. Any ideas? Sorry for bad English.
[17:11] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, an extended partition for his logicals
[17:11] <amenado> AldarHawk-> where is wireless? #
[17:11] <amenado> *-network:1 UNCLAIMED
[17:11] <amenado> #
[17:11] <amenado>         description: Ethernet Controller  <-- shows ethernet clearly
[17:12] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: of course, sorry...
[17:12] <test-3R> ez :)
[17:12] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sdb1 is a small linux partition everything else is in logicals
[17:12] <vulcar> AldarHawk, after reinstalling did you "modprobe ndiswrapper"
[17:12] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[17:12] <AldarHawk> vulcar: yes i did
[17:12] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, so you can see why I find it odd that his windows os would be in there and that those are not just data
[17:12] <amenado> vulcar look at what he claimed  UNCLAIMED its not wireless.its ethernet..
[17:12] <AldarHawk> amenado: yes it is an Ethernet Conroller...WiFi is Eathernet
[17:13] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: most of this setup is odd. But it is worth mounting those NTFSs as you suggested
[17:13] <AldarHawk> lmao amenado read the entire thing
[17:13] <ubuntuu> I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 and my sound is acting strange. I only get the "somethings-wrong" beeps through speakers/headphones. When I try to watch movies or play music I get no sound. What should I do?
[17:13] <amenado> AldarHawk-> my fault, i did not see the 802.11g
[17:13] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-2    then    sudo mount /dev/sdb6 /media/ntfs-2
[17:13] <AldarHawk> I have had this working up until my battery died
[17:13] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-3    then    sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /media/ntfs-3
[17:13] <AldarHawk> laptop battery
[17:14] <soundray> sarthor: please go ahead as Jack_Sparrow suggests in his two lines to me ^^
[17:14] <Ashfire908> how do i set up a persistent livecd?
[17:14] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, Do you understand what I am thinking?
[17:14] <sarthor> soundray, i am lookgin to that,, but not getting well
[17:14] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, telapthay "ON"
[17:14]  * nickrud freezes in place with extreme head pain
[17:15] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: I'm still not sure I know which one might be the overwritten partition
[17:15] <soundray> sarthor: what's the problem?
[17:15] <ritalin> ubuntu for president in 08!
[17:15] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, sdax gone
[17:16] <sarthor> i did this. sudo mkdir /media/ntfs-3    and    sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /media/ntfs-3
[17:16] <soundray> sarthor: now do a 'ls /media/ntfs-3/' and tell us how much output you get

[17:17] <pushpop> Question, If I wanted to remove 2 files from a directory names Notes1 and notes1a using the "[]" what would be the proper syntax?

[17:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about squid - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[17:17] <ubuntuu> How do I install my soundcard?
[17:17] <gera> Hi
[17:17] <Ashfire908> DGJ: i followed it.
[17:17] <ubuntuu> =(
[17:18] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, my guess is that he installed ub on sda, with a /home partition and a swap in extended..  and erased exerything else
[17:18] <AldarHawk> vulcar: you chatting with you pal on MSN/AIM?
[17:18] <Ashfire908> DGJ: it doesn't seem to be working.
[17:18] <vulcar> AldarHawk, skype.
[17:18] <sarthor> soundray, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60169/
[17:18] <vulcar> AldarHawk, i fed him all your pastebin's to see what he can come up with but he is in denmark and its night where he is.
[17:19] <DGJ> Ashfire908, i've not used it, all i'd seen was ubotu's suggestion, sorry I can't help anymore with that
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, thouse should be on his desktop.. so he could open in nautilus and look for directory of program files etc
[17:19] <soundray> sarthor: that looks like Windows data. Keep looking for your system partition
[17:19] <AldarHawk> vulcar: check your Private messages
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, documents and settings would also be a clue
[17:19] <AldarHawk> I hope it went through
[17:19] <sarthor> soundray, Yes that windows data, but i can already browse it in ubutnu.. windxp installed is the only partition that i can not browse in my ubuntu
[17:20] <soundray> sarthor: which partition is that?
[17:20] <sarthor> soundray, in that image you can see that
[17:20] <GeorgeA> I just updated pidgin, but for some reason in help-about it still shows that it's the old version!
[17:20] <sarthor> soundray, you saw that image??
[17:20] <soundray> sarthor: what image? Your ls pastebin?
[17:20] <sarthor> http://www.4shared.com/file/41280707/9554eed7/Screenshot.html?
[17:20] <Ashfire908> could someone help me with making a persistent livecd? (I followed the help page it didn't/doesn't work)
[17:20] <vulcar> AldarHawk, new to xchat - where do i check those?
[17:21] <sarthor> i think that is /dev/sdb5
[17:21] <AldarHawk> most likely did not pop up
[17:21] <AldarHawk> you have MSN or AIM?
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Ashfire908, you dont make a persistent livecd..   the usb stick makes it persistent
[17:21] <Ashfire908> Jack_Sparrow: that's what i meant
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Ashfire908, see pendrivelinux
[17:22] <vulcar> AldarHawk, does pigidin work with msn
[17:22] <AldarHawk> no clue...Trillian does though :P
[17:22] <AldarHawk> as does GAIM
[17:22] <soundray> sarthor: do a 'sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs'
[17:22] <MasterShrek> vulcar it does
[17:23] <soundray> sarthor: and try 'sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdb5'
[17:23] <MasterShrek> soundray why not have him use ntfs-3g?
[17:23] <terminal> hiIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
[17:23] <Jack_Sparrow> AldarHawk, gaim had to be renamed to pidgin..  aol complained
[17:23] <Intrepd> yes i've used MSN w/ Pidgin
[17:23] <Intrepd> Gaim -> Pidgin now i think
[17:23] <soundray> MasterShrek: how is that going to help boot Windows?
[17:23] <vulcar> AldarHawk, I am on msn now.
[17:23] <MasterShrek> soundray sorry, i just kinda jumped in, i saw that you were trying to mount ntfs partitions
[17:24] <sarthor> soundray, i can browse that partition now. what i have to do now??
[17:24] <Jack_Sparrow> MasterShrek, we are trying to find his windows install or verify that it is lost
[17:24] <terminal>  ./steam   i get error Failed to connect to any GeneralDirectoryServer
[17:24] <MasterShrek> oh ic :)
[17:24] <sarthor> soundray, i can see windows in installed form there
[17:24] <AldarHawk><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[17:25] <MasterShrek> terminal are you trying to use steam, the game program? its only for windows, you have to use wine
[17:25] <MasterShrek> !wine | terminal
[17:25] <ubotu> terminal: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[17:25] <soundray> sarthor: okay, now that we have found your Windows installation, use the menu.lst in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60168/ but change line 192 to read root (hd1,4)
[17:26] <soundray> sarthor: then try a reboot
[17:26] <ljlolel> hi, i remember seeing this once:  how do I program where windows are positioned when I open them?
[17:26] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, well done
[17:26] <terminal> mastershrek; i hav already install wine
[17:26] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: thanks, wouldn't have had a clue without your help re. that extended partition :)
[17:27] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, still a very odd place for it to be if he installed windows first
[17:27] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, teamwork
[17:27] <cottima> hello, I keep having trouble with my keyboard. I still have window control like alt-tab, but in some programs it has problems while at the same time it works in others.  the weird thing is that is it alternates between programs, so it may the same programs but at different times as different programs.
[17:27] <MasterShrek> terminal navigate to the steam installation directory and run: wine Steam.exe
[17:27] <cottima> it is just random.  I do not think it is scim.
[17:28] <corinne_> Hey everyone, how's things
[17:30] <sarthor> soundray, Jack_Sparrow i am back, and its not done.. there error there is "invalid device you requested, press any key to continue, " with press key.. i am back to the selecting place
[17:30] <corinne_> I'm having a problem with my mouse (touchpad)
[17:30] <Toznoshio> Query: I am looking for PC-based dictionary software for Ubuntu, does anyone have any recommendations?
[17:30] <sisif> Hello guys. Can somebody please recomend me a good tool for converting flac to ogg / mp3 ?
[17:31] <corinne_> Is anyone able to help out?
[17:31] <sarthor> soundray, the line is looking like "root            (hd1,4)"
[17:31] <soundray> sarthor: that means that (hd1,4) is not your /dev/sdb5 -- strange, but there's a lot that's strange with your system...
[17:31] <soundray> sisif: oggenc should read flac
[17:32] <sarthor> soundray, yes.. i admitt this.. right now i am also totally confuesd and lost.
[17:32] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, was there a link to the file list on that drive
[17:32] <sisif> soundray : preferably a nice GUI tool. I`m not that founded with command line
[17:32] <noodlesgc> hey i have a problem with Nicotine+, it tells me at the bottom that it is connecting, but it just sits for hours
[17:33] <soundray> sisif: oggenc is incredibly easy to use. Use 'man oggenc' and have a go
[17:33] <alanbshepard70> I need help, my computer is affected by this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdrkit/+bug/15424 where every time I try to burn a CD or DVD it fails. I really need a way to burn 25 gigs worth of data to DVD. Is there a package other than what's included with ubuntu that will allow me to successfully burn a DVD and do a byte by byte verify?
[17:33] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, sorry i did not get?
[17:33] <Scunizi> Anyone up on how to map additional buttons on a multifunction keyboard?  I don't know where to start. Keyboard is not listed in system/keyboard. It's a Logitech Wave usb.
[17:33] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, in starting up??
[17:34] <corinne_> Does anyone know what to do if the mouse suddenly slows down after an install?
[17:34] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, did you post a link to the ls from the drive you think is your windows install
[17:34] <soundray> !keytouch | Scunizi
[17:34] <ubotu> Scunizi: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts

[17:36] <Sgeo> I'm trying to connect my Motorola RAZR v3xx (I think) to my Ubuntu 7.04 computer via USB
[17:36] <Sgeo> WHen I connect it, I see it in Nautilus
[17:37] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60172/
[17:37] <Sgeo> But I get:
[17:37] <corinne_> Thanks ubotu, I
[17:37] <Sgeo> "Unable to mount media. There is probably no media in the drive."
[17:37] <jpatrick> !bot | corinne_

[17:37] <Sgeo> sorry
[17:37] <davi1> hello, how do disable check disk at boot?
[17:37] <corinne_> ...wait, that's a bot.  but it already works, it's just slow...
[17:38] <noodlesgc> Sgeo try the moto4lin package
[17:38] <Sgeo> Tried it, no success
[17:38] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, what drive is media/xp   tied to?
[17:38] <hischild> Good afternoon. Out of nowhere my video's refuse to play when i'm using compiz, but when i switch to metacity they work fine. Is this a known bug and if so, is there a workaround?

[17:39] <jussio1> :)
[17:39] <Sgeo> I don't see Motorola on there
[17:39] <Sgeo> So it doesn't help
[17:39] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60177/ xp tied to
[17:40] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: grub must be counting the partitions differently in that weird layout
[17:40] <Sgeo> Also, why am I not even able to access stuff when it's in "Mass Storage" mode?
[17:40] <davi1> hello, ubuntu takes 10 miutes to boot. how do i disable the checkdisk option when booting?
[17:40] <subzeroHusky> what do you recomend for loging in to a windows system
[17:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Sgeo, http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/08/how-to-connect-motorola-v3x-to-ubuntu.html              note device vendor numbers are critical to getting that to work.. and I cant help with those
[17:41] <dep> davil: sudo tune2fs -c 0 -i 0
[17:41] <soundray> sarthor: can you run 'sudo grub', then enter 'geometry (hd1)' and pastebin the output pls
[17:41] <Sgeo> Jack_Sparrow, should it be in a certain USB mode?
[17:41] <dep> davil: however, this is highly dangerous to do, disk checks occur for a good reason
[17:41] <danand> davi1 - does your system perform a check of the disks _every_ time you boot?
[17:42] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, look at his fstab..  sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[17:42] <vulcar> umm when did ffmpeg become unauthorized package for ubuntu 7.10?
[17:42] <Sgeo> I probably should reenable disk checks at some point
[17:42] <MasterShrek> vulcar its not unauthorized, its in universe
[17:43] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, soundray http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60179/
[17:43] <MasterShrek> vulcar there is a better version in the medibuntu repo though
[17:43] <vulcar> I am getting a prompt saying it is unauthorized.
[17:43] <subzeroHusky> what do you recomend for loging in to a windows system
[17:44] <MasterShrek> subzeroHusky remotely?
[17:44] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, 4,5 6 not 5,6,7 ?
[17:44] <Belboz91> hey all, any bash scripters in here?
[17:44] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: that's grub starting to count at 0
[17:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Belboz91, Wrong channel.. try #Bash
[17:45] <MasterShrek> Belboz99 #bash may show better luck
[17:45] <Belboz91> thanks
[17:45] <Matthe1> Can anyone here offer some advice on widescreen monitors and ubuntu to a new user?
[17:45] <stinger05> hello, what's the command for iinstalling a .deb package in the terminal ?
