[00:00] <Rideh> Helminthe: i guess i'm wondering if i can create an image i like in vmware, and then distribute that?
[00:00] <titan_> My audio is low. I have it turned all the way up in system settings and on my DVD player... any suggestions?
[00:00] <owen1> soundray: leaner. less functionality.
[00:00] <exodus_MS> running ubuntu 8.0.4 on windows via vmware server 1.0.6. on a alienware notebook. need help configuring belkin wireless N pcmcia card f5d8013 ver 1000
[00:01] <saykou> why i cant install any SO's in my HP laptop
[00:01] <soundray> owen1: will remember it for my 300MHz Thinkpad
[00:01] <owen1> soundray: never tried ratpoison. i treid xmonad and others.
[00:01] <owen1> soundray: can i automate the mount?
[00:02] <Monkey_> Hello, anyone know why I can't seem to see the Broadcom STA Wireless Driver from my Hardware Drivers Menu?
[00:02] <SpinachHead> is there someone i can IM that knows about the installation cd?
[00:02] <soundray> PriceChild: thanks for that, very nice.
[00:03] <Monkey_> I see the B43 one, but it isn't the one I want
[00:03] <exodus_MS> no one wants to tackle the wireless issue, i see, it is a bit redundant but I assure you i have done my homework
[00:03] <soundray> owen1: I'm sure it's possible, but I have no experience with automounting removable devices outside of Gnome
[00:03] <PriceChild> SpinachHead: ask the real questino
[00:03] <Monkey_> exodus, I see you're also having a wireless issue
[00:03] <Rideh> grr i need more ram :( 2gb isnt cutting it for 2 clients 1 server (ubuntu) xp client on a vista host :(
[00:04] <rainabba> I'm trying to do a netBoot install using a local Apache server using the ubuntu-8.04.1-server-i386 distro. Which folder (from the ISO) should be the root of the HTTP server in order for this to work? (I've already got the PXE side of things working).
[00:04] <SpinachHead> okay, I need to install hardy without internet. Does the cd have all the packages or does the istallation process dl the packages as the install goes?
[00:04] <owen1> soundray: get it. created a 1 line script, called it usb-drive.
[00:04] <jrib> SpinachHead: the desktop cd has all the packages you need to install
[00:05] <jonasfa> does anybody knows why my user is not listed in the System > Administration > Users and Groups dialog? i'm running hardy
[00:05] <owen1> soundray: to mount it.
[00:05] <exodus_MS> SpinachHead, yes, the cd will download a working OS but you will need an Internet connection to "fetch" updates and packages not avail on the cd
[00:05] <soundray> owen1: that's a good way
[00:05] <titan_> Are there any settings I can use to raise the audio on Ubuntu past the default max? I can bearly hear my audio of movies even with it maxxed.
[00:06] <Monkey_> tgitan, doubleclick on the audio panel on the top bar, and adjust the far right bar
[00:06] <SpinachHead> okay, so i did the alternate cd disk.  I got to configre intenet.  since i dont have, i said later.  Then when installing packages in the next step it said error. and I assumed it was because o lack of connetctionl  i did the md5sum on the cd and everything was fine. so why would it stop installing ?
[00:06] <soundray> titan_: double click the volume icon to get the mixer and make sure that both Master volume and PCM are turned up
[00:06] <Helminthe> Rideh: short answer - yes :)
[00:06] <Monkey_> titan, you can also maybe change the 'Front' level
[00:07] <titan_> ok checking soundray
[00:07] <jrib> SpinachHead: you would need to tell us the error.  You ran "check the cd for defects"?  Not just md5sum on the iso?
[00:07] <joe_> salve
[00:07] <titan_> ah! Headphone audio was down! Thanks :)
[00:07] <joe_> ho appena installato ubuntu
[00:07] <Rideh> Helminthe: hehe just having trouble finding good resources, i dont mind rtfm as long as i'm looking at the right one
[00:07] <joe_> ma vedo la schermata di login gigantesca
[00:07] <joe_> come devo cfvare'
[00:07] <titan_> Oh ya, there we go, alot of different ones were too low
[00:08] <jonasfa> does anybody knows why my user is not listed in the System > Administration > Users and Groups dialog? there is only the root user in the list :(
[00:08] <SpinachHead> okay, ill check for defects....

[00:08] <exodus_MS> SpinachHead, have you tried the live cd, running ubuntu on your exsisting OS before installing
[00:08] <soundray> joe_: is that *rude* Italian?
[00:08] <SpinachHead> the live cd wont run with my card i guess I tried it before
[00:09] <SpinachHead> just freezes

[00:10] <cO_Co> i
[00:10] <jonasfa> does anybody knows why my user is not listed in the System > Administration > Users and Groups dialog? there is only the root user in the list :(
[00:10] <SpinachHead> add a user
[00:10] <Jowi> jonasfa, in a terminal type "id" and hopefully your uid is not "root"
[00:10] <scientus_> does making su unexecutable remove the possibility of a user changing userrs?
[00:11] <exodus_MS> soundray, could use your help
[00:11] <nonix4> Hrm... any way to make out-of-hd-space work more gracefully for "normal users"?
[00:11] <jonasfa> Jowi: i'm not using the root user :(
[00:11] <KenBW2> jonasfa: maybe youre thining to root user is you. its not - root is hidden in ubuntu
[00:11] <Jowi> night all
[00:11] <scientus_> i use root all the time
[00:11] <scientus_> sudo bash or sudo -i
[00:11] <soundray> exodus_MS: please ask the channel. If I can help, I will
[00:11] <jonasfa> KenBW2: the root user is listed in the 'Users and Groups' dialog, but my user, jonas, is not
[00:11] <soundray> scientus_: be careful with sudo bash

[00:12] <scientus_> not being able to log into a user does not meen you cant use it

[00:12] <bcx> hi ! i got a network question - i run ubuntu in a vm and it often disconnects my hosts wlan connection - tried roaming and static - but when i open a network path from host system it disconnects my hosts wlan
[00:12] <scientus_> what would be dangerous, bash doesnt change any config files by default
[00:13] <soundray> exodus_MS: why don't you configure WLAN in the host system and use NAT to Ubuntu?
[00:13] <scientus_> itts not dependant on $HOME, etc
[00:13] <exodus_MS> SpinachHead, i wish i could help. there are many linux savy folks on this channel, maybe one of them will take the time to help you. dont give up and hang in there
[00:14] <nathan-_> scientus_: good question, i've wondered this too.   Any suggestions?
[00:14] <bcx> im using bridged netowrk currently
[00:14] <R0b0t1> Does anyone have any suggestions as how to get Java applets to work correctly in firefox? The default does not work, and I have tried ubottu's link, which did not work. I had it working on the same install before, but for some reason it just now decided to fail.
[00:14] <rogan> how do i get amarok to play m4a format? and read the id3s correctly?
[00:15] <soundray> scientus_: running a root shell, you may have certain expectations about where variables point, e.g. $HOME. sudo bash and sudo -i are different in that respect
[00:15] <KenBW2> R0b0t1: could be because ubuntu doesnt include the official Java
[00:15] <tarelerulz> Do any of you have a media player the use the mtp protocol ?  Is good management program for device that use it .  So you can add songs , movies , picture easy
[00:15] <jrib> R0b0t1: you need to give details.  What exactly did you do that did not work?  And how exactly did it not work?
[00:15] <soundray> exodus_MS: it doesn't have to if it's recognized in the host system
[00:15] <jorffff> try this dumpbin command using the kernel32.lib file
[00:15] <scientus_> ahh, programs make assume root sheel and $HOME=/root etc are constant, i can see that
[00:15] <KenBW2> tarelerulz: Rhythmbox has a plugin or MTP
[00:15] <R0b0t1> Well, OK. I dealt with this problem a while back and fixed.
[00:15] <R0b0t1> it
[00:16] <R0b0t1> What I did was change the default java by using the replace-alternatives, etc.
[00:16] <jrib> !enter | R0b0t1
[00:16] <R0b0t1> But now that will not work.
[00:16] <nonix4> nathan-_: most preinstalled linux systems can be crashed in the store with a 12-character bash command.
[00:16] <scientus_> but soundray i did point out my not thinking that---big thing is i like my working directory to stay the same or i wont use it
[00:16] <jrib> R0b0t1: don't say "doesn't work", say what exactly happens
[00:16] <jorffff> try this dumpbin command using the kernel32.lib file
[00:16] <R0b0t1> jrib: Nothing.
[00:16] <exodus_MS> soundray, ok, im on the host system right now and ubuntu is running in vmware, but i still cannot connect to internet from ubuntu
[00:16] <R0b0t1> Nothing happens when something should be happening.
[00:17] <tarelerulz> KenBW2 ,  do you just drag over the files you want to have on the player and the player read the tags and organize it right.
[00:17] <nonix4> (because they have no ulimits set and ridiculously bad OOM handling)
[00:17] <soundray> exodus_MS: have you configured VMware to share its connection with the virtual machine?
[00:17] <dtech> running Hardy, need to run gksu displayconfig-gtk .... ERROR: GtK-WARNING **: cannot open display
[00:17] <jrib> R0b0t1: great, I have no understanding of what your issue is. You're goal is to install the sun java plugin in firefox?
[00:17] <R0b0t1> However, when I do try to change the default Java, it says everything worked, but after restarting and then using "java -version" it still says it is OpneJDK.
[00:18] <R0b0t1> jrib: Actually, its to get that, and allow java applications to run.
[00:18] <nathan-_> nonix4: ok you can destroy a system if you do know what you are doing also.  But it all implies that the user is an idiot (i.e. has no idea and could break a system unknowingly, or does know what they are doing and breaks a system intentionally - both are idiots)
[00:18] <bcx> is it a problem if i used 2 bridged networks in a vm for xp and ubuntu ?
[00:18] <exodus_MS> soundray, im using NAT
[00:18] <jrib> R0b0t1: the java you get from running "java" and the java that runs in your browser are two different things.  So which of those do you want to work on?
[00:19] <R0b0t1> jrib: Lets work on the non-browser right now, thanks :)
[00:19] <jrib> R0b0t1: pastebin 'update-java-alternatives -l'
[00:20] <R0b0t1> jrib: http://pastebin.com/me2ef81d
[00:20] <soundray> exodus_MS: have you tried pinging the outside world from Ubuntu?
[00:20] <jonasfa> does anybody knows why my user is not listed in the System > Administration > Users and Groups dialog? there is only the root user in the list, and i'm not logged in as root
[00:20] <jrib> R0b0t1: which one of those do you wish to make default?
[00:20] <R0b0t1> java-6-sun
[00:21] <jrib> R0b0t1: sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun
[00:21] <R0b0t1> jrib: I've done it before, but sure ;)
[00:22] <R0b0t1> Is that all?
[00:22] <jrib> R0b0t1: sure.  Check 'java -version'
[00:22] <R0b0t1> Wait.
[00:22] <R0b0t1> Why didn't it work before?
[00:22] <jrib> R0b0t1: jrib's magic touch
[00:22] <R0b0t1> jrib: Do you think you could help me set up the browser, now, if you have time?
[00:23] <nonix4> nathan-_: well on a properly configured system a fork bomb shouldn't really do anything more than consume a bit of cpu :)
[00:23] <jrib> R0b0t1: what's wrong with the browser one?
[00:23] <SpinachHead> configureing apt sources...  withouth network connection will that cause installation errors?
[00:23] <nylax> for a system with  AMD Athlon x2 5400 and 4GB ram and a nvidia 8600GT card with 512MB which version of ubuntu would be  best to install on such a machine ?
[00:23] <R0b0t1> Applets won't run, so I'm trying to use the sun Java, because that worked in the past.
[00:23] <jrib> R0b0t1: output of 'uname -m'?
[00:24] <R0b0t1> x86_64
[00:24]  * jonasfa is testing
[00:24] <soundray> nylax: how are you planning to use it?
[00:24] <jonasfa> does anybody knows why my user is not listed in the System > Administration > Users and Groups dialog? there is only the root user in the list, and i'm not logged in as root
[00:24] <jrib> R0b0t1: sun does not make a 64bit java.  You must run an open java plugin like with the gcjwebplugin package or install 32bit firefox like in the !java64 factoid
[00:24] <jrib> !who | R0b0t1
[00:25] <nonix4> nylax: nothing wrong w/ 8.04 for that
[00:25] <nylax> soundray: coding (php,python,postgresql,mysql and mono ) ,surfing web,listening to music
[00:25] <exodus_MS> soundray, 30 packets trans, 30 rec, 0% packet loss, time 41325ms
[00:25] <jonasfa> my user is not listed in the System > Administration > Users and Groups dialog. what can i do?
[00:26] <exodus_MS> soundray, ^^ from "guest" ubuntu
[00:26] <R0b0t1> jrib: Oh, I get it. Does that package have known compatibility issues, or am I just unlucky?
[00:26] <KenBW2> jonasfa: why does it need to be?
[00:26] <soundray> nylax: if it was my machine, I'd put Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64 on it. There is a slight issue with java in 64bit, so you may prefer i386
[00:26] <jrib> R0b0t1: sun is just lazy (or whatever).  The bug on their tracker is several years old, but they don't release a 64bit plugin
[00:26] <nonix4> nylax: btw that video card is overkill for the mentioned usage :)
[00:26] <jonasfa> KenBW2: i want to manage my user's groups
[00:26] <soundray> exodus_MS: so it's working
[00:27] <jorffff> you must delete user mackein
[00:27] <soundray> nonix4: all computers since 1997 have been overkill for that kind of usage
[00:27] <exodus_MS> soundray, yeah, its working... sorry
[00:27] <nylax> nonix4:it was a gaming machine :)

[00:28] <dekkong> nylax: :)
[00:29] <bcx> how should i config the network in a vm with a xp system running as host and another xp in vm same time ?
[00:29] <nonix4> soundray: yeah indeed. My 1998 p2c300a oc'd to 450MHz is still good enough for almost anything, including video playback... actually it can even do q3a
[00:29] <bcx> roaming doesnt seem to be the best for that
[00:30] <vadi2> How can I cancel a print job in ubuntu?
[00:30] <jonasfa> KenBW2: any clue?
[00:30] <exodus_MS> nonix4, curious about "anything"
[00:30] <KenBW2> jonasfa: sorry, no

[00:32] <kjetil1001> where can I find daily builds of intrepid beta iso CDś ?? I cant find anything newer than 3.10.08
[00:32] <soundray> vadi2: 'sudo lpq' to get a list of current jobs, 'sudo lprm num' to delete it by job number
[00:32] <nonix4> is there a bug report on hd full handling of "default install" systems already? IMHO when using the (stupid) layout with only / partition, /var/cache/apt/archives should be cleaned automatically when it uses more than 50% of the hd space and there's 0% free...
[00:32] <wesku_> What was the command for reconfiguring xorg?
[00:32] <soundray> kjetil1001: ask in #ubuntu+1 please

[00:32] <EruditeHermit> sledge: comfortable with commandline? or you want a GUI?
[00:33] <soundray> wesku_: since hardy, 'gksudo displayconfig-gtk'
[00:33] <KenBW2> dekkong: similar to mine then
[00:33] <kjetil1001> There are NOBODY but me in #ubuntu+1!!!
[00:33] <hspaans> wesku_: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[00:33] <dekkong> KenBW2: ok what do u have? :)

[00:33] <KenBW2> 2.4*
[00:34] <soundray> kjetil1001: here, it is offtopic
[00:34] <EruditeHermit> sledge: try top for commandline or gnome-system-monitor for GUI
[00:34] <jonasfa> my user 'jonas' is not listed in the System > Administration > Users and Groups dialog. does anybody knows why?
[00:34] <dekkong> KenBW2: you could also need abit more ram i guess :)
[00:34] <kjetil1001> OK!! wrote the name bad?? Why no errormeg about non-existing channel?
[00:34] <KenBW2> dekkong: it wouldnt go amiss
[00:35] <EruditeHermit> sledge: gnome-system-monitor is self explanatory. In top you need to hit k to kill a process, supply the process ID number and the kill level (9) is what I normally use.
[00:35] <m1r> evening all
[00:35] <EruditeHermit> sledge: hit q to exit top
[00:35] <m1r> !8139
[00:36] <dekkong> htop looks nice
[00:36] <nonix4> kjetil1001: heh, when you join channel that didn't exist, you create one...
[00:36] <EruditeHermit> sledge: gnome-system-monitor is probably easier though if you aren't used to top
[00:36] <EruditeHermit> sledge: more intuitive
[00:36] <Lynet> Is there an equivalent of 'top' in the ubuntu repositories that shows which programs are doing io? I am aware of iotop, but it seems there is no ubuntu .deb for it.

[00:45] <Rovin> It took me a while to get Java working on Firefox, but I managed it
[00:45] <soundray> saykou: try Ubuntu and see what happens. Any errors, search the web or come back here and ask.
[00:46] <EruditeHermit> isilion: post contents of that to rafb.net/paste
[00:46] <Guest51769> anyone know how to access free WoW servers in Ubuntu?
[00:46] <isilion> EruditeHermit:  DISABLED_MODULES="fglrx"
[00:46] <hspaans> isilion: as you wish
[00:46] <soundray> Rovin: well done
[00:47] <isilion> EruditeHermit:  after commented lines nothing more than that line
[00:48] <EruditeHermit> isilion: sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-local post contents to rafb.net/paste
[00:49] <EruditeHermit> isilion: or just tell me what it says
[00:49] <wesku_> How I'm able to take pc speaker beeps off?
[00:49] <soundray> wesku_: System-Preferences-Sound -- third tab
[00:50] <wesku_> what about the command?
[00:50] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: I already told you above
[00:50] <nolochemical> Hail :)
[00:50] <wesku_> Oh, I'm sorry i missed that :)
[00:50] <isilion> EruditeHermit:  only has this line : blacklist fglrx
[00:50] <semanticpc> where can i post config files ??
[00:50] <EruditeHermit> isilion: put a # infront of that line
[00:50] <cabrioleur> wesku_, sudo rmmod pcspkr
[00:50] <nolochemical> ..just wondering if there is a way to configure the L2 cache.. or an app to adjust low level setting
[00:51] <EruditeHermit> isilion: so it reads: #blacklist fglrx
[00:51] <nolochemical> *setting
[00:51] <soundray> !pastebin > semanticpc
[00:51] <isilion> EruditeHermit: done. reboot needed?
[00:51] <semanticpc> thank u
[00:51] <EruditeHermit> isilion: reboot and try
[00:51] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: Do I give the link for Xorg.0.log in here or in query?
[00:51] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: in here is fine if its not too long
[00:51] <wesku_> http://wesku.wippiespace.com/linux/Xorg.0.log
[00:52] <nolochemical> ..brb
[00:52] <Myyoga> Hey folks, I installed Emerald and now im interested in removing it and going back to the basic Human interface. How do I get it off
[00:53] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: what exactly is happening? describe the boot process
[00:53] <wesku_> There comes Ubuntu loading screen and after that there is just massive pixel color things and some of them are flashing
[00:53] <Dreamglider> hah! the dual monitor setting is done in the screen resolution drop down list !
[00:53] <Danskmand> Hi soundray 8-) - Sorry for only anwering now....but I've been carrying concrete andtearing down walls the whole day...
[00:54] <Dreamglider> i just set it to 3840 by 1200 and what do you know :)
[00:54] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: is it red, white, green, blue solid colours?
[00:54] <jorffff> try this dumpbin command using the kernel32.lib file
[00:54] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: or something like that
[00:54] <wesku_> yes solid colours
[00:54] <soundray> Danskmand: that is NO excuse
[00:54] <Danskmand> Haha :-)
[00:54] <lakitu> hey - just installed some updates that required a reboot, & now i have a black desktop & no desktop icons
[00:55] <soundray> Danskmand: :)
[00:55] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: did you change your xorg.conf in any way?
[00:55] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: did it ever work properly?
[00:55] <wesku_> Nope
[00:55] <Danskmand> ...but I fell asleep at the keyboard :-)
[00:55] <wesku_> fresh install
[00:55] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: hmm interesting
[00:55] <wesku_> server one and then ubuntu-desktop
[00:55] <Danskmand> Man, O am fucked up !
[00:55] <stickmasta> i need help with my booting
[00:55] <LjL> Danskmand: language please
[00:56] <Danskmand> I even cant write errorfree..
[00:56] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: you installed ubuntu server and then tried installing ubuntu-desktop metapackage?
[00:56] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: Yes I installed the ubuntu-desktop package
[00:56] <stickmasta> :D help?
[00:56] <soundray> lakitu: is that straight after booting, or after logging in?
[00:56] <lakitu> soundray, after logging in
[00:56] <lakitu> login was fine
[00:56] <rainabba> I'm trying to do a netBoot install using a local Apache server using the ubuntu-8.04.1-server-i386 distro. Which folder (from the ISO) should be the root of the HTTP server in order for this to work? (I've already got the PXE side of things working).
[00:57] <stickmasta> this is the 4th room and still no help
[00:57] <EruditeHermit> wesku_:  you have an nvidia card? did you ever install nvidia binary driver with this?
[00:57] <Bitbybit> How can I find out if I'm using the 32bit or 64bit version of Ubuntu 8.04?
[00:57] <isilion> EruditeHermit: SUCCESS THANX SUCCESS THANX!!! fglrxinfo now shows ATI and radeon 9800. glxgears runs at 9160 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1832.000 FPS. its normal? i think its a bit slow. im on a p4 2.8 1.5ram (ati 9800 pro)
[00:57] <soundray> lakitu: do a Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and see if it works if you log into a Failsafe Gnome session
[00:57] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: Yes, I have ti4200 and didn't install drivers
[00:57] <stickmasta> can i have help with my huge problem?
[00:58] <lakitu> failsafe gnome is fine
[00:58] <EruditeHermit> isilion: if fglrxinfo shows fglrx and you can fgl_glxgears from commandline, then it is working
[00:58] <nolochemical> hey :)
[00:58] <rainabba> stickmasta: YOu might want to ask a real question.
[00:58] <stickmasta> my ubuntu says "Error Loading Operating System" then hangs
[00:58] <stickmasta> help?
[00:58] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: shall I try installing the drivers then?
[00:58] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: no
[00:58] <soundray> lakitu: would it be terrible if you had to reset your entire gnome configuration?
[00:58] <nolochemical> ..does anyone a way to adjust low level configurations like the L2 Cache that ubunutu use
[00:59] <nolochemical> *ubuntu uses
[00:59] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: do you want 3D and fancy stuff?
[00:59] <lakitu> soundray, what are the ramifications of that - what would i lose?
[00:59] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: nah
[00:59] <stickmasta> my ubuntu says "Error Loading Operating System" then hangs
[00:59] <stickmasta> , can i have help help?
[00:59] <wesku_> im fine without
[00:59] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: don't bother then
[00:59] <Dreamglider> stickmasta ask you question
[00:59] <Dreamglider> your*
[00:59] <soundray> lakitu: things like your panel configuration, preferences settings etc.
[00:59] <jorffff> try this dumpbin command using the kernel32.lib file
[00:59] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: do you need the ubuntu server stuff? I would recommend just installing ubuntu from a normal user CD
[01:00] <isilion> EruditeHermit: 2952 frames in 5.0 seconds = 590.400 FPS thats better. supose i was using wrong trial
[01:00] <lakitu> soundray, i'd rather not. is there a way to "rollback" this update?
[01:00] <rainabba> When Ubuntu Netboot connects to a mirror to look for packages, what file(s) is it seeking to determine if the mirror is valid?
[01:00] <stickmasta> may someone help me with my hanging screen please?
[01:00] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: Well, no.
[01:00] <LjL> rainabba: define "valid"
[01:00] <Rovin> hmm, is there an update on OpenOffice 3.0 yet?
[01:00] <isilion> EruditeHermit:  could repeat me all the commands so i post it for if that could help someone more?
[01:00] <soundray> lakitu: downgrading is generally not supported. Do you know exactly what caused the problem?
[01:00] <EruditeHermit> isilion: glxgears and fgl_glxgears numbers don't really mean anything. It doesn't test how fast your card is really. The only thing they are good for is to show that GL is enabled
[01:01] <Bitbybit> i need to know if i'm using 32bit or 64bit
[01:01] <lakitu> soundray, just some updates that i had let go for awhile. they required rebooting
[01:01] <stickmasta> can some help me with my ubuntu, it says "Error Loading Operating System" then hangs
[01:01] <rainabba> LjL: "Valid" meaning, the installed doesn't come back saying "Bad archive mirror"
[01:01] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: no, you don't need the server stuff or no you can't reinstall?
[01:01] <thiebaude> rovin:i think i have 3.0 in 8.10 i would need to check
[01:01] <rainabba> s/installed/installer
[01:01] <lakitu> soundray, so, no, not exactly
[01:01] <LjL> Bitbybit: type "uname -a"
[01:01] <Rovin> ok thanks thiebaude.
[01:01] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: I don't need the server stuff. This was only install media that I had near my hands ;)
[01:01] <thiebaude> yw
[01:01] <nolochemical> exit
[01:01] <Bitbybit> LjL:tyvm
[01:02] <hspaans> thiebaude: 8.10 is still on 2.4.1
[01:02] <EruditeHermit> isilion: the only thing that is missing in the previous post from yours is sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-local and comment the line in there
[01:02] <stickmasta> can some help me with my ubuntu, it says "Error Loading Operating System" then hangs
[01:02] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: hang on a sec before I tell you to do that
[01:02] <rainabba> LjL: "Valid" meaning, the installer doesn't come back saying "Bad archive mirror"
[01:02] <thiebaude> hspaans,yup
[01:02] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: that will be the last resort
[01:02] <thiebaude> 2.4
[01:02] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: I have never used ubuntu server edition so I don't know what it does
[01:03] <lakitu> soundray, is there a way to tell why i'm getting a blackout in place of a desktop?
[01:03] <stickmasta> can some help me with my ubuntu, it says "Error Loading Operating System" then hangs
[01:03] <Bitbybit> stickmasta: are you able to boot to recovery from grub menu?
[01:03] <LjL> rainabba: "Bad archive mirror - The specified ubuntu archive mirror is either not available, or does not have a valid Release file on it."
[01:03] <Rovin> can I update to 8.10 when released from wubi?
[01:03] <hspaans> and to be honest, 3.0 is not really a great improvement
[01:03] <soundray> lakitu: you could examine ~/.xsession-errors for clues
[01:03] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: I think it's just install of ubuntu without the software packages and GUI
[01:03] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: can you ctrl+alt+F1 into a terminal
[01:03] <stickmasta> BitbyBit: No
[01:03] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: yes, I'm in terminal currently
[01:03] <rainabba> LjL: Ok, so what is a "Valid Release file"?
[01:03] <isilion> EruditeHermit:  at least tell me what was the file i edited
[01:03] <thiebaude> hspaans:are you on 8.10?
[01:03] <LjL> rainabba: well, for starters if no "Release" file exists at all, then it's hardly valid
[01:03] <hspaans> thiebaude: yes
[01:04] <Bitbybit> stickmasta: check the disk for errors with a live disk perhaps?
[01:04] <Myyoga> Hey folks, I installed Emerald and now im interested in removing it.How do I get it off my comp?
[01:04] <Helminthe> stickmasta: your problem is not related to ubuntu or linux at all, what you said looks like a bios error message
[01:04] <EruditeHermit> isilion: I did. scroll up
[01:04] <EruditeHermit> isilion: I just told you
[01:04] <jrib> Myyoga: how did you install it?
[01:04] <Danskmand> soundray - do you think my fcpci can be healed ?
[01:04] <rainabba> LjL: So a "valid Release file" is a file named "Release"?
[01:04] <Myyoga> through synaptic
[01:04] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: can you startx from it?
[01:04] <jrib> Myyoga: you remove it the same way
[01:04] <LjL> rainabba: well, and that contains the right stuff. just look at http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/Release , i don't have the specifications
[01:04] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: already active on display 0
[01:05] <rainabba> LjL: Thank you
[01:05] <soundray> Danskmand: sorry, I haven't had to deal with ISDN for over 10 years (and am quite glad for it)
[01:05] <vms> stickmasta: bios says that when it doesn't find anything bootable on MBR, your best bet is to boot a live cd and (re)install grub
[01:05] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop and then try startx
[01:05] <Myyoga> hmmmmm, good point. so then when I go back into the desktop effects tab, U cab choose normal or extra and emerald will not stat up?
[01:05] <Myyoga> *start
[01:05] <stickmasta> BitbyBit: well i shows the screen with my systems stuff on it then it looks from a boot record from cd, then it says ok, then tells me something about my hard drive then says "Error loading operating system"
[01:05] <Danskmand> soundray: What do you use for saxing then ?
[01:05] <jrib> Myyoga: it shouldn't.  That should be all you have to do assuming you didn't configure it anywhere else for your user
[01:06] <soundray> Danskmand: faxing?
[01:06] <EruditeHermit> isilion: the only thing that is missing in the previous post from yours is sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-local and comment the line in there
[01:06] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: is there way to scroll terminal up and down?
[01:06] <Helminthe> .. who could I ask for a shortcut like "!nul" that would say "your problem is not related to ubuntu or linux at all"?
[01:06] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: what do you mean? scroll up to see previously entered commands?
[01:06] <Helminthe> i'm getting tired of typing this :)
[01:06] <LjL> !bot > Helminthe    (Helminthe, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:06] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: yes
[01:06] <jrib> Helminthe: we have !ot or !offtopic for that
[01:07] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: hitting the up arrow key should do it?
[01:07] <jorffff> wesku_ delete republican group is a virus
[01:07] <Danskmand> Hehe :-) - I mean that technique from the 80's before email was there ;-)
[01:07] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: oh not the command the text that there is in terminal
[01:07] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: I don't think so =(
[01:07] <soundray> Danskmand: I use faxtastic for "saxing"
[01:08] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: ah, ok :/ But after stopping gdm, it still gives same error
[01:08] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: not that I know of
[01:08] <lakitu> soundray, hmm
[01:08] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: what do you mean the same error?
[01:08] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: when you try to startx it flashes different colours?
[01:08] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: "Server is already active for display 0"
[01:08] <GaMbi_DK> in kubuntu.. where to put command "compiz --replace --only-current-screen & disown" so that it runes on every start up?
[01:08] <Myyoga> I no longer have title bar, its completely see through
[01:09] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: startx DISPLAY=:1
[01:09] <Myyoga> thats with the visual effects set on normal
[01:09] <unop> !startup > GaMbi_DK
[01:09] <jrib> Myyoga: try logging out and back in.   Come back here if you still have trouble
[01:09] <Helminthe> jrib: doesn't seem like I could add a "factoid" from the instructions in there..
[01:09] <Myyoga> alright, thanks
[01:09] <thiebaude> !startup
[01:09] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: what is command for delete a file?
[01:09] <jrib> Helminthe: you can.  You just say: foo is blah      to ubottu
[01:09] <Danskmand> Soundray: "saxing".....Is that something done NOT in #ubuntu *blush* ? ;-)
[01:10] <MalfermitaKodo> Hi Ubuntistoj!
[01:10] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: rm <file>
[01:10] <soundray> Danskmand: I'm referring to your typo ^^
[01:10] <Killer--Tux> hello
[01:10] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: what are you deleting?
[01:10] <GaMbi_DK> using kde :)
[01:10] <MalfermitaKodo> How can I find out what device a USB mouse (well, trackball) is using?
[01:10] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: X0-lock
[01:10] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: still colours flashing on the screen
[01:11] <Danskmand> soundray: Hehe :-) - Ping-pong ;-)
[01:11] <mongolai> wesku_, also, you can "scroll" the screen in a non X session by hitting shift+PgUp
[01:11] <Killer--Tux> i am tring to install battlefield 2 on ubuntu and when it asked for cd i try to eject the cd and it says can not unmount volume and dosent let me eject it
[01:11] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: what type of panel is it?
[01:11] <lucax> is intrepid ibex going to have clear intrepid as default theme? or its just some theme thats on beta ??
[01:11] <Helminthe> jrib: thanks, you're right, I had to wait for moderator approval too
[01:11] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: huh?
[01:11] <lakitu> soundray: http://pastebin.com/m6e4f985b
[01:11] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: what resolution, is it CRT, LCD etc
[01:11] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: CRT
[01:12] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: what is the optimal resolution?
[01:12] <dean0null> i'm having problems connecting my intel 5100agn with the internet
[01:12] <jrib> Helminthe: but as I said, isn't your !nul covered by !offtopic?
[01:12] <lakitu> soundray,  my .xsession-errors file
[01:12] <dean0null> what's the easiest way to connect to th
[01:12] <dean0null> e internet?
[01:12] <wesku_> EruditeHermit: 1024x I think
[01:13] <soundray> lakitu: compiz might be the culprit. While you're still in failsafe, do a 'mv ~/.compiz ~/compizconfig-backup' and try logging into a normal session
[01:13] <vms> Killer--Tux: make sure you don't have any file browsers browsing the cd or terminals (or any programs)
[01:13] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: can you post your xorg.conf somewhere?
[01:13] <Helminthe> jrib: the ot message is not helpful in any way for someone who cannot discern what part of their computer is not working
[01:13] <EruditeHermit> isilion: you figure it out?
[01:14] <MalfermitaKodo> I know it's strange, but the mouse runs but needs an entry in the Xorg.conf to work really well
[01:14] <dean0null> what program would be the easiest way to get connected to my online network?
[01:14] <nylax> whats an optimal swap partition size for a system with 4GB of ram ?
[01:14] <mongolai> can someone point me to a tutorial in getting pulseaudio to stream sound to a different in hardy?
[01:14] <MalfermitaKodo> nylax: do you need swap at all then ;)
[01:14] <mongolai> *different computer
[01:15] <alph4__> I'm having a problem with my 80211 subsystem, http://pastie.org/295492
[01:15] <EruditeHermit> nylax: anything over 4GB if you want to hibernate it
[01:15] <Killer--Tux> vms  i dont have any programs open
[01:15] <alph4__> Can someone please assist?
[01:15] <soundray> nylax: it depends on whether you need hibernation. With, it would be 4.1GB, without, 512MB would be enough
[01:15] <thiebaude> !swap
[01:15] <quanlitruong> ad
[01:15] <XiXaQ> is there any movieclip manager with similar features as rhythmbox? For instance, if you have music videos, you might want to arrange different playlists, give ratings to clips and play the your favorite clips manually, etc?
[01:15] <Danskmand> soundray: ...So youre living in the UK....Maybe I can find something like it here in Germany....
[01:16] <hspaans> swap can make a system faster?
[01:16] <isilion> EruditeHermit: post is updated, hope it can help more ati-ubuntu users. once again, thanx. now im deeply happy with my computer
[01:16] <mib_9nn3ow> Hi, how do you reset the configuration file for a program in Ubuntu? My XChat is messed up and I just want to go through the first walkthrough
[01:16] <EruditeHermit> isilion: cool
[01:16] <XiXaQ> hspaans, yes.
[01:16] <MalfermitaKodo> hspaans: nah, only prevent it from crashing!
[01:16] <soundray> Danskmand: web.de does something similar (can't really recommend them from a customer experience point of view, though)
[01:16] <jrib> mib_9nn3ow: mv ~/.xchat2/ ~/.xchat2.backup
[01:17] <nylax> thanks  guys
[01:17] <vms> Killer--Tux: tried unmounting from a terminal: umount /media/cdrom
[01:17] <d2tehp> what was the command to find the uuid of a hard drive, anyone remember?
[01:17] <hspaans> XiXaQ: time for rereading my Solaris Internals books I expect
[01:18] <isilion> EruditeHermit: one more thing. i saw a video showing a cube linux desktop.  id like to try that. do you know what application is responsable?
[01:18] <unop> d2tehp, sudo blkid
[01:18] <Danskmand> soundray: Maybe my provider can do that....The thing is that I own a 1-person company and I cant use something that adds some kind of advertising or address-rewriting on the faxes...
[01:18] <d2tehp> ah, thx unop
[01:18] <lakitu> soundray, didn't work, but good try
[01:19] <mib_9nn3ow> Hi, how do you reset the configuration file for a program in Ubuntu? My XChat is messed up and I just want to go through the first setup/walkthrough
[01:19] <hspaans> Danskmand: is efax.com nothing for you?
[01:19] <alph4__> Halp me: http://pastie.org/295492
[01:19] <unop> mib_9nn3ow, did you not see what jrib said to you??
[01:19] <lakitu> soundray: altho i noticed compiz was still in effect when i logged back in - shouldn't it've been off?
[01:19]  * MalfermitaKodo is kinda annoyed with the setting
[01:20] <MalfermitaKodo> *setup
[01:20] <soundray> lakitu: no, moving its config doesn't disable it. It just recreates a default .compiz dir when you start it again
[01:20] <mib_9nn3ow> i didnt, unop. sorry about that, and thank you jrib!
[01:20] <naknomik> Is there a way to install an app again? I lost some files, and I want to reinstall the package
[01:21] <EruditeHermit> isilion: compiz
[01:21] <lakitu> soundray, ok
[01:21] <unop> naknomik,  sudo aptitude reinstall package_name
[01:21] <Killer--Tux> vms what would be the best application to install the game cedega or wine
[01:21] <EruditeHermit> isilion: go to System-->Preferences->Appearance-->Visual Effects choose advanced
[01:21] <gleesond> how do I ignore updates for a particular pkg?
[01:22] <mib_9nn3ow> last question, how do you install wine easiest?
[01:22] <sacamano> mib_9nn3ow, Applications->Add/Remove
[01:22] <mib_9nn3ow> ty sacamano
[01:22] <EruditeHermit> isilion: or rather, choose Extra in Visual Effects
[01:22] <lakitu> soundray - what should i do?
[01:22] <vms> Killer--Tux: first, i would wine app db at winehq.org, if it's not supported check cedega's db
[01:23] <soundray> lakitu: in case you decide to reset your gnome configuration, the command is 'gconftool --recursive-unset /'
[01:23] <vms> Killer--Tux: use wine if it's supported, if not then you have to check cedega
[01:23] <Killer--Tux> vms supported by both but the only thing is that i have no sound with wine
[01:23] <MalfermitaKodo> Okay, let me rephrase it: the first mouse is normally /dev/psaux... even if is it USB, fsor... what is the 2nd mouse?
[01:23] <lakitu> soundray, so e.g., i'd lose what.. theme - compiz configuration - what? what are some big things i'd lose -- i don't fully understand what gnome all encompasses
[01:24] <unop> gleesond,  echo "package_name hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections
[01:24] <nocive> Hi all! I have a weird synaptics touchpad behaviour with Ubuntu Hardy. The right click button also activated vertical scroll (down). Is there a way to remap the right touchpad button? Ideas? :)
[01:24] <soundray> lakitu: essentially everything you set via System-Preferences (what you set through System-Administration will be preserved)
[01:24] <Helminthe> gleesond: good question, especially if holding back one package breaks dependencies for others..
[01:25] <vms> Killer--Tux: run winecfg then and play with the sound settings.. if they say in the appdb the sound works im sure you can get it working
[01:25] <gleesond> Helminthe: I'm pretty sure screen is not a dependency for other pkgs
[01:25] <lakitu> soundray, ok - good explanation. i can handle that.
[01:25] <MalfermitaKodo> nocive: do you happen to have an Acer Aspire One?
[01:25] <EruditeHermit> wesku_: still around?
[01:25] <nocive> Hi all! I have a weird synaptics touchpad behaviour with Ubuntu Hardy. The right click button also activates vertical scroll down and the left button activates vertical scroll up. Is there a way to remap the right touchpad button? Ideas? :)
[01:25] <nocive> MalfermitaKodo: LG X100 (netbook also)
[01:26] <Killer--Tux> vms i get audio test faild
[01:26] <MalfermitaKodo> hmmm....
[01:26] <unop> Helminthe, if a package is held - other packages that depend on it will be held back as well
[01:26] <nocive> MalfermitaKodo: is there a workaround for acer aspire one? maybe they have the same touchpads.
[01:26] <chris__> can someone help me (that is not idle) with ibex?
[01:26] <lakitu> cool, it's back.
[01:26] <MalfermitaKodo> not really, my workaround is to use my external trackball
[01:26] <lakitu> good work soundray
[01:26]  * lakitu busy preferring
[01:26] <unop> !8.10 | chris__
[01:26] <soundray> chris__: you need to ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:27] <chris__> i did :( everyone is idle.....
[01:27] <soundray> lakitu: glad it worked
[01:27] <erisco> how can I directly link two ubuntu computers together via ethernet?
[01:27] <soundray> chris__: it's still offtopic here
[01:27] <MalfermitaKodo> Ubuntu+1? I'd expected ubuntu++ ;)
[01:27] <nocive> MalfermitaKodo: my solution is using the touchpad a standard mouse. I loose vertical scroll and all accidental taps are reported as clicks...
[01:27] <hspaans> chris__: very short question?
[01:27] <d2tehp> i ssh to my ubuntu box alot, and theres like a 4 second pause between when i type my username and when it prompts for the password, anyone know how to remove that delay?
[01:27] <unop> erisco, you'll need a special cross-over cable, if you have one, it's just a matter of assigning IP addresses to both machines.
[01:28] <nocive> I was hoping there could be some workaround or hack to remap the 2 click buttons.. :(
[01:28] <erisco> unop, a special cable? I just have a chunk of cat5
[01:28] <EruditeHermit> isilion: you get it working?
[01:28] <Helminthe> unop: thanks, good to know. a suse-like "provides" without version info might have been useful too, for instances like me insisting on using firefox 1.5. don't ask why :)
[01:28] <chris__> yeah i cant enable my gfx because i can only load in safe gfx mode so it cant reconfigure my xorg config file...
[01:28] <MalfermitaKodo> nocive: well, I have issues with touchpads anyways...
[01:28] <jrib> d2tehp: no, but I would just use ssh keys and not be bothered with typing passwords
[01:28] <nocive> MalfermitaKodo: I don't like them either, but with a 10.6 " netbook it isn't very handy carrying an extra mouse around :X
[01:29] <hspaans> chris__: I don't do restricted drivers sorry
[01:29] <Refefer> hi guys, just updated ubuntu and it required a reset.  Now grub is throwing an Error 18 after I select my kernel version.  any ideas what happened?
[01:29] <unop> erisco,  a cross-over cable is a catX cable - just that it has a few wires crossed over on one end  -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_crossover_cable
[01:29] <erisco> unop, can I use two chunks of cat5 and a hub?
[01:29] <chris__> hspaans, i don't care what it is as long as i can get something higher then 800x600 lol
[01:29] <erisco> unop, I have to work with what I have
[01:29] <unop> erisco, sure - that's what a hub is for
[01:30] <soundray> chris__: try 'gksudo displayconfig-gtk' and select an appropriate display type under Model:
[01:30] <erisco> unop, okay thanks
[01:30] <naknomik> I lost cupsd.conf from the cups package, how do I recover it?
[01:30] <vms> Killer--Tux: can't help you with that, maybe some wine users here who can help
[01:30] <naknomik> not the edited file, but the original
[01:30] <Refefer> any ideas?
[01:31] <soundray> naknomik: 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall cupsys' should recover it
[01:31] <Killer--Tux> vms thanks
[01:31] <timetrap> Can I ask a question?
[01:31] <timetrap> Hello?
[01:31] <Danskmand> Soundray: Ok.....I'm giving up for today...I fell asleep again !
[01:31] <[Stythys]> timetrap: hiya
[01:31] <chris__> soundray, invalid command
[01:31] <timetrap> [Stythys]: Hi! I have a question . . .
[01:31] <[Stythys]> fire away
[01:32] <soundray> naknomik: if not, 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall cupsys-common'
[01:32] <timetrap> [Stythys]:okay I installed ubutnu
[01:32] <timetrap> [Stythys]: and I can't get my ipod to work
[01:32] <soundray> chris__: works in hardy...
[01:32] <chris__> :(
[01:32] <Danskmand> soundray: We'll meet tomorrow - fresh and smiling :-)
[01:32] <timetrap> [Stythys]: it sayz like, ipod not working . .
[01:32] <soundray> !ipod | timetrap
[01:32] <Helminthe> chris__: try downloading the latest beta driver from http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14 run their installer and blacklist nv
[01:32] <soundray> Danskmand: I wouldn't bet on it...
[01:32] <soundray> Danskmand: quick pm?
[01:33] <Danskmand> Sure !
[01:33] <rainabba> I'm thinking my approach is fundamentally flawed. I have the Ubuntu Server Alt Disk and I'm trying to use it with Apache and Netboot to do a netboot install from a local mirror. Given the proper configuration, is that possible, or do I need another image/more packages?
[01:33] <Danskmand> WE'll do that !
[01:34] <MalfermitaKodo> Okay, let me rephrase it: the first mouse is normally /dev/psaux... even if is it USB, fsor... what is the 2nd mouse, which device?
[01:34] <rainabba> PXE boot goes fine and I get far enough to specify a mirror manually, but then I get "Bad archive mirror". My Apache server is rooted at "\mnt\ubuntu-8.04.1-server-i386\dists\hardy" which contains a Release file, Release.gpg file, and the folders main and restricted.
[01:35] <rogan> No suitable demux plugin. This often means that the file format is not supported.   // i dont understand why amarok will only play selected mp4s but i have about 2000 songs that give me that error and id3 tags are all fucked up
[01:36] <rainabba> When prompted for the "archive mirror directory" in the installer, the default is "/ubuntu/" which doesn't exist in the ISO image at all. What's up with this?
[01:36] <MothOnLovesLight> does anyone here use JanusVM?
[01:36] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: try 'grep event /var/log/Xorg.0.log'
[01:36] <hspaans> rogan: search on google for "id3v2 tag"
[01:36] <MothOnLovesFlame> does anyone here use JanusVM?
[01:36] <[Stythys]> Come! Use Arch! All your dreams will come true!
[01:37] <FluFFy`> Hello, I need some serious help. :)
[01:37] <jspp_> TELL US!!!
[01:37] <FluFFy`> I just tried installing Ubuntu. Or actually, I did install it, in dual boot mode. Now the problem is that it doesn't boot, and theres a small hint in what direction I need to be looking..
[01:38] <jspp_> What is the error message?
[01:38] <godmode117> does anyone know if Mondo can backup to DVDRs?
[01:38] <FluFFy`> As currently my RAID1 drive is rebuilding..
[01:38] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: I do not see any mentioning of the trackball
[01:38] <MothOnLovesFlame> does anyone here use JanusVM?
[01:38] <bugaloo> guys, I have a eeepc (asus 701) running ubuntu-eee but I can't do my webcam works.. can anybody help me?
[01:38] <rogan> hspaans: is there a plugin for amarok?
[01:38] <MothOnLovesFlame> !JanusVM
[01:39] <FluFFy`> I have RAID0 and RAID1 partitions in windows..this is a problem..right? It says status" failed on startup for those raid partitions..
[01:39] <[TiZ]> Startup-manager keeps changing the names of my grub menu entries! How do I make it stop?
[01:39] <maestrolinux> http://s2.ar.bitefight.org/c.php?uid=19732 hello --!!! hola alguien me ayuda con esto
[01:39] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: anything hooked on /dev/input/event* there?
[01:40] <rainabba> FluFFy`: What raid controller?
[01:40] <ogsc> bugaloo: is your webcam enabled in the bios? i've found that to be the case (inexplicably) on my 1000h and have heard that elsewhere
[01:40] <WDC> Hello
[01:40] <Tonno> Help... I can open the terminal
[01:40] <Tonno> can't
[01:40] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: things like janusvm don't make sense when you only have one uplink for example
[01:40] <FluFFy`> Intel raid controller.
[01:40] <MalfermitaKodo> (--) Synaptics Touchpad auto-dev sets device to /dev/input/event7
[01:40] <MalfermitaKodo> (**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/event7"
[01:40] <WDC> I am trying to switch desktops with Cntrl Alt right or left but it just moves the active window. It doesn't change the desktop
[01:41] <MothOnLovesFlame> what's an uplink?
[01:41] <MalfermitaKodo> that repeated several times
[01:41] <WDC> Tonno: control alt backspace, then relogin
[01:41] <rainabba> FluFFy`: More specific?
[01:41] <[TiZ]> Okay, one more time. Startup Manager keeps changing the names of my grub menu entries. How do I make it stop?
[01:41] <FluFFy`> My RAID1 fails when I boot up.
[01:41] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: connections to the internet
[01:41] <MalfermitaKodo> sorry if that violated anti-flood policy
[01:41] <rainabba> FluFFy`: The Raid controller, which one? (Intel makes and integrates many)
[01:41] <hspaans> FluFFy`: you mean ich-raid?
[01:41] <Tonno> WDC , what? :S
[01:41] <Naaaatan> anyone managed to get knewz installed on Ubuntu?
[01:41] <FluFFy`> Oh right, let me check that.
[01:42] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: didn't see all your earlier messages, what type of controller is yours? usb?
[01:42] <WDC> Tonno: Not that hard. On the keyboard hit Control + Alt + Backspace and then relogin and it should work
[01:42] <bobertdos> [TiZ]: How exactly have they been changing?
[01:42] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans: can janusvm run java programs through tor?
[01:42] <FluFFy`> Intell Matrix Storage Console 7.6
[01:42] <rainabba> FluFFy`: ICH-Raid is known an Fake-raid in Linux because Linux doesn't recognize it as a "real" RAID controller. It isn't supported.
[01:42] <Refefer> hmm, ok, so why won't grub throw an error when I use a previous kernel version?   It's not like my hd changes sizes
[01:42] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: I have no clue how the touchpad is connected, but it uses /dev/psaux, the trackball, I want to configure uses USB
[01:43] <Tonno> WDC , ohh ok I get it now...
[01:43] <rainabba> FluFFy`: If you tried to install to one of those arrays, you likely overwrote a single disk (or more) and killed the array.
[01:43] <Tonno> thanks
[01:43] <jspp_> ime pallejas
[01:43] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: tor is one network you don't want to connect with
[01:43] <bugaloo> ogsc: webcam is ON
[01:43] <FluFFy`> rainabba, yes I probably did, it's being rebuild roght now.
[01:43] <[TiZ]> bobertdos: I used to have just 4 entries: Ubuntu 8.04.1, Ubuntu 8.04.1 (recovery), memtest86+, and Windows XP. Whenever I startup the Startup Manager, it changes the names of the first three to Debian GNU/Linux, kernel blah blah blah whatever, and adds a separator before the WinXP entry.
[01:43] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans:  why is that?
[01:43] <bugaloo> ogsc: I even tried to disable it and enable it again
[01:43] <bugaloo> but nothing
[01:43] <rainabba> Then it's not failed, but degraded.
[01:43] <FluFFy`> Ok.
[01:43] <bobertdos> Refefer: Do you mean why WOULD it throw an error? (Just double checking)
[01:44] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: unplug the trackball, plug it back in, and check the last lines of 'dmesg' output. should give you some hint
[01:44] <rainabba> FluFFy`:I've been through that issue a few times. Finally broke down and bought an SRCSAS18E off eBay for a few bucks.
[01:44] <Refefer> bobertdos: I just upgraded some packages in my distro and prior to that, ubunt was working fine
[01:44] <ogsc> bugaloo: does the green light come on when you start cheese?
[01:44] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: less then 1% is legal and every security service is connected
[01:44] <bugaloo> ogsc: no
[01:44] <FluFFy`> rainabba, what is that?
[01:44] <rainabba> FluFFy`: For pure Linux systems, Linux Software Raid is great.
[01:44] <Refefer> now when I load it up, it refuses the boot with the two most recent kernels claiming cylindor problems on the hd
[01:44] <Refefer> however, a less recent kernel still works fine
[01:44] <rainabba> FluFFy`: Dedicated "Hardware" Raid controller that is 8channel and does SAS and SATAII
[01:45] <rainabba> gotta run
[01:45] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans:  what do you mean every security service is connected?
[01:45] <FluFFy`> Hmm, I actually wanted to make it a dual boot system. So then my best bet would be to get a hardware controller?
[01:46] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: and as long you don't have multiple uplinks connected to true different networks and internet exchanges then it's fake security
[01:46] <ogsc> bugaloo: what is the output of 'cat /proc/acpi/asus/camera'?
[01:47] <bugaloo> ogsc: 1
[01:47] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans: what security services are connected
[01:47] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: every secret service has multiple nodes running in the tor network
[01:47] <Refefer> anyone have any ideas?
[01:47] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans: most nodes are in central and northern europe
[01:48] <drog> I have my own secret service
[01:48] <drog> that's how awesome I am
[01:48] <jspp_> No you dont
[01:48] <jspp_> liar
[01:48] <drog> No, I don't
[01:48] <chaddy> Refefer: load up a kernel that works and fsck?
[01:48] <Refefer> fire
[01:49] <Refefer> hmm, time to reboot
[01:49] <Refefer> brb
[01:49] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans: but i dont know much about this, do  you know WHICH security services are connected?
[01:49] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: http://www.pastebin.ca/1230606
[01:49] <[TiZ]> Okay, one more time. Startup Manager keeps changing the names of my grub menu entries. How do I make it stop?
[01:50] <bugaloo> ogsc: just for your consideration, the webcam used to work on windows
[01:50] <MalfermitaKodo> TiZ... how are things changed?
[01:50] <After_Math> why cant I telnet to an open port on my localhost?
[01:50] <RYknow> Anyone here using a G15 Keyboard?
[01:50] <Shakedown> is there a GUI SSH client packaged in 8.04?
[01:50] <chadder> HarryR: do I need to mount my /swap partition from this old FreeBSD drive, will anything from that impact the previous setup?
[01:50] <[TiZ]> MalfermitaKodo: I used to have just 4 entries: Ubuntu 8.04.1, Ubuntu 8.04.1 (recovery), memtest86+, and Windows XP. Whenever I startup the Startup Manager, it changes the names of the first three to Debian GNU/Linux, kernel blah blah blah whatever, and adds a separator before the WinXP entry.
[01:50] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans: how about freenet?
[01:50] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: I'm not going to answer for more than one reason
[01:51] <jspp_> Liars
[01:51] <[TiZ]> I want it to stop doing that.
[01:51] <usser> Shakedown, putty, gftp
[01:51] <MalfermitaKodo> tiz pastebin your menu.lst?
[01:51] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans: what reasons?
[01:51] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: and nothing about it in Xorg.0.log ?
[01:51] <Shakedown> usser: do those come with 8.04?
[01:51] <After_Math> How can I telnet to an open port on my computer?
[01:51] <[TiZ]> MalfermitaKodo: You mean the one before startup manager changed the names, or the one after?
[01:52] <RYknow> how can I change the output on the LCD of my G15 keybaord?
[01:52] <RYknow> I have G15composer...how do I use it? and do I need anything else?
[01:52] <elstefanno> hi
[01:52] <ogsc> bugaloo: i'm not sure what is going on. i'd try to check your uvcvideo driver installation, and if installed, update it to the latest version
[01:52] <[TiZ]> I backed up my menu.lst before I loaded startup manager, 'cos I was afraid it would do this. I can pastebin my old one, or my current one.
[01:53] <csilk> is there a way to tell ubuntu what nameserver to query?
[01:53] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: nothing
[01:53] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: there are enough papers on why networks like tor don't work in the Internet we now live in
[01:53] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans: what about things like freenet, I2P and GNUnet
[01:54] <Shakedown> So, I'm on my desktop and I SSH into my university's server. Now, I have a file on the server that I want to copy to my desktop, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to use scp in this situation. Anybody know of a good tutorial or able to walk me through a bit of it?
[01:54] <ZEERO> can anyone help me? i cant open regedit in wine
[01:54] <[TiZ]> MalfermitaKodo: http://pastebin.com/f5293fcbc The menu.lst before startup manager changed it
[01:54] <dtech> is there any way to configure the display/screen/monitor settings in Hardy?
[01:54] <Darth_Ramirek> o.O
[01:54] <ZEERO> how do i open regedit?
[01:54] <csilk> ZEERO,  why would you want to use regedit?
[01:55] <ZEERO> csilk, i need regedit to get ubuntu to run on wine
[01:55] <csilk> Oh, i wasn't aware wine required ubuntu -_-
[01:55] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: when you have at least three connections and change them every four to six months maybe, but then other people start to ask questions
[01:55] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: no idea then, I was expecting you to see something like "config/hal: Adding input device Logitech USB Trackball"
[01:55] <mongolai> Shakedown, for hardy, you can go to Places>Connect To Server... and get an sftp session in nautilus
[01:55] <ZEERO> so can ANYONE help me use regedit?
[01:56] <techqbert> Anybody have Asus 1000 running 8.04 in here?
[01:56] <[TiZ]> ZEERO, what are you trying to do? "make ubuntu run on wine"? Don't you mean the other way around?
[01:56] <ogsc> techqbert: 1000h. does that count?
[01:57] <MothOnLovesFlame> hspaans:  do you care to elaborate in private?
[01:57] <ZEERO> [tiz] i meant world of warcraft
[01:57] <ZEERO> i need to use regedit to get wow running
[01:57] <[TiZ]> Oh. Hit alt+f2 and do "wine regedit"
[01:57] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: what is hal?
[01:58] <ZEERO> [TiZ] i tired it in a terminal and it didnt work\
[01:58] <[TiZ]> Do you have wine installed?
[01:58] <ZEERO> [TiZ], yeah, its installed
[01:58] <HEATHZ> hey... i instaled the ubuntu 8.0.4
[01:58] <Dreamglider> can anyone help me get youtube and ebaumsworld and such video sites to show video with out jerking ? i use firefor and ubuntu 8.04
[01:58] <HEATHZ> ops
[01:59] <Riovane> .
[01:59] <[TiZ]> Well, running "wine regedit" from the run dialog should work.
[01:59] <ZEERO> Dreamglider, turn off hardware acceleration it the setup
[01:59] <bugaloo> uvcvideo... ok, I'll try it
[01:59] <[TiZ]> Maybe you need a more up-to-date version, from the wine website
[01:59] <techqbert> ogsc: yeah.  that does count ;) Could you tell me how playback is with HD content on vimeo.  Of the many clips, I recently stumbled on this one. www.shortner.com/24o will forward you there.
[01:59] <ogsc> bugaloo: something along these lines... http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?pid=247477#p247477
[01:59] <bugaloo> ogsc: synaptic doesn't find any uvcvideo
[01:59] <ZEERO> [TiZ], i have the newest version
[01:59] <bugaloo> is it normal?
[01:59] <ogsc> techqbert: just a sec, i'll check it out
[01:59] <[TiZ]> Well, I don't know what to tell you then. I'm sorry.
[01:59] <ZEERO> ok
[01:59] <ZEERO> now its working
[01:59] <ZEERO> weird
[02:00] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: no I'm bound to certain rules, but search for electronic blow whistle and there are enough pdf's that will explain the situation to start with
[02:00] <HEATHZ> hey... i instaled the ubuntu 8.04 but i'm without internet connection at home... anybody knows where can i download an image with the video and audio (mp3) codecs?
[02:00] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: a service that should be running on your system and that watches for input devices among others. what does " ps auxw | grep hald-addon-input" say?
[02:00] <truebosko> Hi there, anyone have any tips on playing HUGE files with VLC in Ubuntu? I notice on Ubuntu when I try to play an 8gb .mkv file it is choppy, but is fine on Windows
[02:00] <hspaans> MothOnLovesFlame: and now back to on-topic again
[02:00] <Goan> Hi. How do I setup classpath for my Java
[02:00] <Goan> and MySQL JDBC
[02:00] <bugaloo> ogsc: thanks, I ll take a look
[02:01] <techqbert> truebosko: how did you get the .mkv file to play in VLC?  Last time I tried, I learned that the ubuntu devs don't compile .mkv into VLC.  I have to bring up my gentoo machine to watch the particular file
[02:01] <Dreamglider> can anyone help me get youtube and ebaumsworld and such video sites to show video with out jerking ? hardware acceleration is off but itś still jerky
[02:02] <[ICR]> Hey. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Server Edition. I don't have a CD writer to hand, so I can't burn the CD. I do, however, have an old Ubuntu Desktop Live CD. I managed to copy the iso to a small partition and get it to boot from the partition using grub. However, it now fails during the install when it tries to mount and check the CD drive. Any suggestions?
[02:02] <Goan> Also, I have two jvm':  java-6-sun, and java-6-sun-<IP_ADDRESS>

[02:03] <ortsvorsteher>  !ask
[02:03] <techqbert> ogsc: any luck with playback?  ever play a 720p vid on your 1000h?
[02:03] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: from your output earlier in pastebin, the trackball is on input10. can you try the old fashioned reboot with the device plugged in? no other ideas
[02:04] <MalfermitaKodo> HEATHZ: I think you can download the deb packages
[02:04] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: okay, I'll do it like in Windows!
[02:04] <truebosko> techqbert: I dunno .. it just plays it out of the box :)
[02:04] <MalfermitaKodo> but....
[02:04] <ogsc> techqbert: it was choppy...really choppy. i've tried watching a 720p of star trek nemesis and it didn't do too well. choppy as well
[02:05] <Blue112> I'm with irssi cause my gnome doesn't works, the gnome-panel freeze, then the entire desktop, and then, the screen go orange, then nothing. When I restart X and login again, I have just an gray rectangle at the top left of the screen (with nothing inside).

[02:05] <HEATHZ> MalfermitaKodo yeah... but download one by one and than try to install at home... after that i notice that theres a lot of dependences to install too...
[02:05] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: don't change xorg.conf yet
[02:05] <MalfermitaKodo> Blue112: mv your .gnome ?
[02:06] <Blue112> MalfermitaKodo: What's inside ?
[02:06] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: okay, so I'll commentthe changes!
[02:06] <HEATHZ> MalfermitaKodo 'cause of this i want an iso with the packages and dependecies
[02:06] <truebosko> hmm, trying Movie playet to play the .mkv
[02:06] <MalfermitaKodo> Blue112: your GNOME configuration
[02:06] <Blue112> MalfermitaKodo: (and with is .gnome2 ?)
[02:06] <Blue112> what is*
[02:06] <Dreamglider> more info: playback on youtube, ebaumsworld, snuffx, youporn (All video sites) is jerky, i have firefox 303 Ubuntu 8.04 and use the adobe flash plugin, the pc is 2x2GHz 2Gb ram and 256Mb ati radeon graphic card. the video loads fast so that's not the problem.
[02:06] <Blue112> not with, sorry.

[02:07] <techqbert> truebosko: out of the box with an intel-atom ubuntu 8.04 machine?
[02:07] <techqbert> ogsc: thanks for testing for me
[02:07] <ogsc> techqbert: are you running a 1000?

[02:08] <truebosko> And it seems that movie player so far is not skipping where VLC was
[02:08] <truebosko> strange..
[02:08] <truebosko> It's a good movie too, I wanna watch it :)
[02:08] <techqbert> ogsc: nope.  old p4 with 64-bit graphics card that skips VLC on 720p and skips on vimeo
[02:08] <nraic> What is the name of that gnome app that monitors that network traffic, cpu usage, and something else
[02:09] <nraic> it has 3 or 4 black boxes
[02:09] <Refefer> ugh, no such luck
[02:09] <Refefer> my partition is fine
[02:09] <truebosko> heh, when I browse am edia heavy website the video begins slowing. You can tell an 8gb file is tough :)
[02:09] <HEATHZ> hey... i instaled the ubuntu 8.04 but i'm without internet connection at home... anybody knows where can i download an image with the video and audio (mp3) codecs?
[02:09] <techqbert> ogsc: why do you think the asus 1000h skips on vimeo and 720p?
[02:09]  * techqbert has seen 720p play well under windows through youtube videos users put up
[02:10] <Helminthe> nraic: gnome-system-monitor - Process viewer and system resource monitor for GNOME 2
[02:10] <Refefer> any grub gurus out there?
[02:10] <ogsc> techqbert: i'm not real sure...we use vimeo for playback at work and i've found it to require more 'juice' to run than other online providers
[02:11] <CoRnJuLiOx> hey, to install kubuntu from gnome, you just install the kubuntu-desktop package from synaptic, right?
[02:11] <truebosko> Ok, real question. I removed kde from my package manager but now my Ubuntu update manager wants me to install 200+ kde related packages
[02:11] <racquad> hi guys! I have ubuntu 8.04 installed on an acer one and I just upgraded to 8.10. the thing is that the video is strange, too slow. to move a window is a pain.
[02:11] <truebosko> I dont want KDE so .. what should I do?
[02:11] <nraic> Helminthe, does it already come with ubuntu
[02:11] <ogsc> techqbert: that may have something to do with it...but i'm not an expert :)
[02:11] <racquad> the chipset is intel 945. on 8.04 it worked very gently, but on 8.10 its too slow
[02:11] <Helminthe> Refefer: only two in total alive, I think :) please detail your problem
[02:11] <nylax> hello guys
[02:12] <Helminthe> nraic: of course, that is the package name
[02:12] <nylax> currently in Ubuntu 64
[02:12] <sayers> How do I have an apache userdir ( <IP_ADDRESS>/~steven ) ?
[02:12] <racquad> to scroll firefox, for example, is a really pain. very slow
[02:13] <Refefer> Helminthe: I recently did a routine update using the update utility on my laptop.  As of that point it was working perfeclty fine.  It requested that I reboot the machine and after I did, I can only get an older kernel, 16, to booth
[02:13] <Refefer> er, boot
[02:13] <MalfermitaKodo>  http://pastebin.ca/1230621
[02:13] <Refefer> otherwise I get an Error 18 - Cylindor problem
[02:13] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: that's what it says now
[02:13] <HEATHZ> ¬¬"
[02:13] <techqbert> ogsc: thanks for all the assistance bro
[02:14] <ogsc> techqbert: no problem, any time
[02:14] <truebosko> Anyone know how Gnome Movie player finds subtitles? I have an .srt file in the same directory but it's not recognizing it
[02:14] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: so it ignores your trackpad completely
[02:14] <truebosko> ah found it .. requires command line
[02:15] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: well, not, the trackball works...
[02:15] <ReyRey> Hey guys.. I want to install a new ROM on my windows smartphone but needs windows activesync, is there a way to install my ROM on Ubuntu? I read that activesync on wine has a 'garbage' rating btw
[02:15] <nraic> Helminthe, I am talking about one that sits on top menu bar
[02:15] <racquad> any idea, anyone?
[02:15] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: I just want to setup it to be able to scroll
[02:16] <Refefer> truebosko: I h ave no idea if it will, but I know VLC player plays subtitles perfectly
[02:16] <mongolai> can anyone point me to a tutorial to get pulseaudio to redirect audio over the LAN on hardy?
[02:16] <Blue112> I'm with irssi cause my gnome doesn't works, the gnome-panel freeze, then the entire desktop, and then, the screen go orange, then nothing. When I restart X and login again, I have just an gray rectangle at the top left of the screen (with nothing inside). I have exactly the same issue with a new user.
[02:17] <Dreamglider> is there any way to get ubuntu to speed up CPU i am currently running at 50%  !
[02:17] <MTecknology> Blue112: can you pastebin your .xsession-errors ?
[02:17] <Blue112> MTecknology: I can't, i'm in tty >_<
[02:17] <MalfermitaKodo> Blue112: lynx?
[02:17] <MTecknology> Dreamglider: dual core?
[02:18] <Blue112> MalfermitaKodo, MTecknology, there's no errors into.
[02:18] <Refefer> Dreamglider: you machine is possibly scaling the cpu based on how much you need, or as MTecknology said it could be a dual core machine
[02:18] <Dreamglider> MTecknology, yes
[02:18] <MTecknology> Blue112: Can you login to a failsafe gnome or a failsafe terminal?
[02:18] <ReyRey> Hey guys.. I want to install a new ROM on my windows smartphone but needs windows activesync, is there a way to install my ROM on Ubuntu? I read that activesync on wine has a 'garbage' rating btw
[02:18] <Refefer> Dreamglider: you're probably running a program which can only use 1 core
[02:18] <Blue112> MTecknology: I don't know what do you mean.
[02:18] <MTecknology> Dreamglider: then you have one process that's eating upu one proc, and the other proc is serving other processes
[02:19] <jioyo> if your life without computer
[02:19] <MTecknology> Blue112: in the gnome login you have an option to log into a different session, try failsafe gnome
[02:19] <Dreamglider> i have "CPU Freq monitor" on my panel it says the pcu is running at 1GHz
[02:19] <Blue112> MTecknology: The failsafe gnome has the same issue :(
[02:20] <Dreamglider> cant i manualy set it to run at full speed ?
[02:20] <Refefer> Dreamglider: sure, but there would be no point
[02:20] <MalfermitaKodo>  http://pastebin.ca/1230630
[02:20] <GaMbi_DK> anyone who can tell me how to / if it is possible to drag a window from my monitor onto my TV (using Separate X screen) - I need this so I can use my desktops and watching a movie on TV-out at the same time
[02:20] <MTecknology> Dreamglider: If you want to get ambitious, you can try to recompile the application to support dual core - if they coded it
[02:20] <MalfermitaKodo> That's my xorg.conf
[02:20] <nraic> Does anyone know that name of a application that sits on the top menu bar in gnome and monitors the cpu, network etc
[02:20] <MTecknology> Blue112: what about failsafe terminal?
[02:20] <Refefer> Ubuntu automatically scales it (assuming default settings) so that if you need more cpu power, they'll make it run faster
[02:20] <Blue112> MTecknology: I'm trying.
[02:21] <FFEMTcJ> is anyone familiar with rsnapshot? i want to set it up.. but the server im wanting to set it up on, I can't modify anything in the /etc dir. Is it possible to put the conifg file in another folder and run it?
[02:21] <Dreamglider> MTecknology, that's way to complicated for a newb like me.
[02:21] <nraic> http://www.gnome.org/~federico/misc/monitor-labels.png
[02:21] <Blue112> MTecknology: It works.
[02:21] <onexused> My brother started to save a document with open office on his USB flash drive, then pulled the drive before it was done (no unmount).    I rebooted.  What can I do next time?
[02:21] <jioyo> who can tell me if your life without computer
[02:21] <MTecknology> Blue112: You may be able to mv ~/.gnome ~/.gnome-bak to make it work...
[02:21] <nraic> What is the application name that create the 4 boxes on the bottom task bar
[02:21] <chadder> if i wanted to do a 'cp' on the /var/lib/mysql folders which options do i use to copy all the required files successfully?
[02:21] <NaRcZ> easy to way to share ubuntu and vista?
[02:21] <MTecknology> Blue112: this will partially let you start from scratch...
[02:21] <chadder> sometimes i get overloaded with the man lol
[02:22] <csilk> NaRcZ,  share?
[02:22] <onexused> NaRcZ: Share files between?  a FAT32 partition.
[02:22] <NaRcZ> exchange files, samba?
[02:22] <Blue112> MTecknology: I've already moved a lot of directories to bak, I even created a new user, but it still doesn't work.
[02:22] <MTecknology> NaRcZ: I make an extra NTFS partition that I let windows and ubuntu mount as read/write
[02:22] <NaRcZ> no network, between 2 computers on a network
[02:22] <Ontolog> Is there any service I can restart to fix the sound system when it goes to hell?
 no network, between 2 computers on a network      ????????/
[02:22] <Blue112> MTecknology: (i'm currently on tty with irssi)
[02:22] <MTecknology> Blue112: useradd -m -s /bin/bash newuser ??
[02:23] <bruenig> Ontolog: are you talking about alsa?
[02:23] <onexused> NaRcZ: When I had a Windows comp, I shared a folder from it and used samba from this one.  That worked well for me.
[02:23] <NaRcZ> i meant no, network, i want to exchange files between an ubuntu and a vista on the same network
[02:23] <MTecknology> Blue112: if You don't use -m then they can't log into a session
[02:23] <Blue112> MTecknology: I've done sudo adduser newuser, isn't that good ?
[02:23] <csilk> NaRcZ,  you are saying there is no network but both machines are on the same network?
[02:23] <MTecknology> Blue112: -m makes a home directory - the user can't log in without it
[02:23] <Dreamglider> one more question: playback on youtube, ebaumsworld, snuffx, youporn (All video sites) is jerky, i have firefox 303 Ubuntu 8.04 and use the adobe flash plugin, the pc is 2x2GHz(Running at 50% apparently) 2Gb ram and 256Mb ati radeon graphic card. the video loads fast so that's not the problem, i have disabled the hardware acceleration also but no luck, anyone know what i can do to fix this ?
[02:24] <BCM34> csilk: no network yet
[02:24] <csilk> MTecknology,  youporn??? lol
[02:24] <Blue112> MTecknology: It has a home directory, and I've logued with it. The issue is the same.
[02:24] <NaRcZ> very simple problem, I am on a network with 2 cpus. One being vista the other ubuntu, I want to exchange .mp3's
[02:24] <Ontolog> bruenig: i don't know which sound system is being used
[02:24] <MTecknology> csilk: what?
[02:24] <csilk> Nothing...............
[02:24] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: is it possible just to uncomment the part in my xorg.conf relating to the trackball?
[02:24] <MTecknology> Blue112: and no .xsession-errors ??
[02:24] <Blue112> MTecknology: The file exists, but contains no errors.
[02:25] <MalfermitaKodo> NaRcZ: Samba? Ftp?
[02:25] <DigitalFiz> Dreamglider, try flash player 10 seems to be fixing a lot of peoples problems its still beta but seems to perform better then 9
[02:25] <NaRcZ> i right clicked on folder and clicked share, installed samba, but vista can not find the folder
[02:25] <MTecknology> Blue112: 8.10 or 8.04
[02:25] <Helminthe> MalfermitaKodo: of course
[02:25] <bruenig> Ontolog: well nonetheless, sound is typically a kernel thing so
[02:25] <Blue112> MTecknology: 8.04 :)
[02:25] <BCM34> DigitalFiz: I think it is out of beta now
[02:25] <DigitalFiz> Dreamglider, its a real easy upgrad too its a simple file replace
[02:26] <DigitalFiz> BCM34, havent checked since i installed it maybe i should get the newest hehe
[02:26] <NaRcZ> What more do you do, after right clicking on a folder, clicking share, installing samba...why is the folder on ubuntu not discoverable from a vista machine
[02:26] <csilk> Dreamglider, youporn, lol....
[02:26] <MTecknology> Blue112: I'm not sure...
[02:26] <renegade420> how can i mount and write to a removable fat32 disk
[02:26] <renegade420> ?
[02:26] <MTecknology> Blue112: when did this happen?
[02:26] <kwyjibo> i accidentally removed some video codecs somehow, and attempted to reinstall them, but now there is pixelation and banding. how can i reset it to ubuntu factory default video playback?
[02:26] <Refefer> csilk: can't fault honesty ;)
[02:27] <csilk> hahah
[02:27] <Blue112> MTecknology: Today >_<
[02:27] <d2tehp> in ubuntu 8.04 how can i make gdm not start at boot?
[02:27] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: okay... expect X11 to go up in flames in 3
[02:27] <mongolai> I just discovered a strange bug -- I'm currently logged onto a remote computer (with my own account) through a remote X-session and when the *other* user inserted an audio CD, Rythymbox window popped up here...
[02:27] <MTecknology> Blue112: after any updates or anything?
[02:27] <NaRcZ> Nobody has ever had the issue of network sharing an ubuntu with an xp family, etc. wow
[02:27] <Blue112> MTecknology: About 4 hours ago. I've puted a livecd, and use it for fsck, but nothing.
[02:27] <d2tehp> NaRcZ did you install samba
[02:27] <MalfermitaKodo> d2tehp: remove the symlink to gdm in /etc/rc5d.
[02:27] <NaRcZ> samba installed
[02:28] <MalfermitaKodo> errr
[02:28] <MTecknology> Blue112: did this happen after fsck or before?
[02:28] <MalfermitaKodo> /etc/rc5.d
[02:28] <d2tehp> NaRcZ both computers in same workgroup? can you see the ubuntu box?
[02:28] <Blue112> MTecknology: I've removed pulseaudio, but I don't think it's linked.
[02:28] <MTecknology> no
[02:28] <renegade420> how can i mount and write to a removable fat32 disk?
[02:28] <Blue112> MTecknology: Before
[02:28] <NaRcZ> d2tehp: ubuntu box?
[02:28] <kwyjibo> can someone please help me put gnome video playback packages to ubuntu installation defaults? :<
[02:28] <Dreamglider> csilk, youporn, redtube, snuffx, whatever site they are all jerky as in video is lagging :P
[02:28] <MalfermitaKodo> renegade420: not working defaultly?
[02:28] <MTecknology> Blue112: how long have it been running ok?
[02:29] <d2tehp> NaRcZ can you see the ubuntu machine from the vista machine?
[02:29] <MTecknology> !o4o | Dreamglider
[02:29] <Blue112> MTecknology: About 1 year >_<
[02:29] <Dreamglider> sry
[02:29] <NaRcZ> d2tehp: no thats the problem
[02:29] <renegade420> MalfermitaKodo, nope ihave to mount manually
[02:29] <MalfermitaKodo> Dreamglider: say godtube ;)
[02:29] <Dreamglider> plyahh !
[02:29] <Helminthe> renegade420: this should be handled automagically by ubuntu. if not, mount -tvfat /dev/xxx somefolder -o rw,umask=0000
[02:29] <Dreamglider> Goodtube perhaps
[02:30] <lanking> what
[02:30] <d2tehp> NaRcZ edit your /etc/samba/smb.conf and make sure you are in the same workgroup, there may be a gui way to do this, i always use command line
[02:30] <NaRcZ> d2tehp: ok im gonna check it
[02:30] <MTecknology> Blue112: So it was running fine for a year. You didn't do any updates. You haven't altered anything other than removing pulseaudio. And it just happened after turning on your computer a few hours ago. ??
[02:30] <kwyjibo> surely this is an easy problem? setting some packages back to installation defaults?
[02:31] <d2tehp> also see if you can get to the ubuntu machine by ip, on vista hold the windows key and hit r then type \\ip.of.ubuntu.box\
[02:31] <FFEMTcJ> is anyone familiar with rsnapshot? i want to set it up.. but the server im wanting to set it up on, I can't modify anything in the /etc dir. Is it possible to put the conifg file in another folder and run it?
[02:31] <Blue112> MTecknology: I've done the ubuntu's security upgrade, as usual. But that's it, i really don't know why that happens >_< maybe a broken file.
[02:32] <MTecknology> Blue112: can you do sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade
[02:32] <DigitalFiz> BCM34, your right its out of beta now
[02:32] <Blue112> MTecknology: Ok.
[02:32] <{alejandro}> hey I did the latest upgrades for today and restarted my computer and now my sound card isn't reading
[02:33] <Blue112> MTecknology: It says that it has nothing to do (with full-upgrade)
[02:33] <MTecknology> Blue112: You're using aptitude, not full-upgrade, right?
[02:33] <Blue112> MTecknology: ?
[02:33] <XiXaQ> does anyone know if gimmie is still being developed or if it's died?
[02:33] <MTecknology> I can see the upgrades available right now because vmware is messing with me
[02:34] <Blue112> Usually I use apt-get >_<
[02:34] <MTecknology> Blue112: do exactly what I wrote above
[02:34] <Bhavesh> !convert
[02:34] <Bhavesh> !debian
[02:34] <Bhavesh> easy way to convert debian 4.0 to Ubunbu?
[02:34] <{alejandro}> What should my first step be if my sound card just stopped working?
[02:35] <Blue112> MTecknology: That's what I've done. sudo aptitude update give me a lot a lines, but no errors. sudo aptitude full-upgrade gives me also a lot of line, which says that it has nothing to do >_<
[02:35] <MTecknology> Bhavesh: do you have your /home on a separate partition?
[02:35] <GaMbi_DK> how do i drag a window from monitor to TV using separate X screen?
[02:35] <MalfermitaKodo> {alejandro}: dmesg |tail
[02:35] <Bhavesh> MTecknology: yes.. actually i just installed debian 4.0 3 hrs a go
[02:35] <kwyjibo> can someone please help me put gnome video playback packages to ubuntu installation defaults? mine is broken somehow. pixellated, colour banding. :<
[02:35] <demism> I added an ext3 partition to my disc, I can't get it to automount when I reboot. It is my new /home
[02:35] <MalfermitaKodo> Helminthe: Thanks! it works now!
[02:36] <MTecknology> Blue112: what happens if you try to reinstall pulseaudio
[02:36] <{alejandro}> MalfermitaKodo I don't see any info on sound...
[02:36] <MTecknology> Blue112: I have one more idea after that, but you won't completely like it
[02:36] <{alejandro}> hm without tail...
[02:36] <Bhavesh> demism: did you edit /etc/fstab with new information?
[02:36] <Blue112> MTecknology: Hum, I really don't think it's linked, but I'm trying...
[02:36] <MTecknology> Blue112: I wouldn't think so - but perhaps....
[02:36] <kwyjibo> so frustrating
[02:36] <demism> Bhavesh: yes I copied the parameters of my / directory and just added auto to it
[02:36] <Blue112> MTecknology: Ok, I have an error message when I start gnome \o/
[02:37] <Bhavesh> demism: you may also need to change the file system type from ext2 or whatever it was before to ext3
[02:37] <MTecknology> Blue112: what exactly does it say?
[02:37] <demism> Bhavesh: I just added auto though, before it didn't work without it
[02:37] <Blue112> MTecknology: Its says that there is an error while trying to load gnome pref daemon (approximative traduction, it's in french...)
[02:37] <Blue112> MTecknology: "did not receive a reply..."
[02:38] <Bhavesh> best way to convert is just to reinstall/install ubuntu?
[02:38] <MTecknology> Bhavesh: if you have /home on a different partition, then install ubuntu normally, point /home at the partition, and don't format it
[02:38] <Bhavesh> MTecknology:  but no easy way to convert a fresh install of Debian to ubuntu?
[02:38] <MTecknology> Bhavesh: no - they're different distros ;)
[02:39] <Bhavesh> MTecknology: darn i was hoping i can just update sources.list and go from there :)
[02:39] <demism> Is there a gui app that helps me reconfigure my fstab?
[02:39] <chaddy> Bhavesh: chroot
[02:39] <Bhavesh> chaddy: what about chroot?
[02:39] <MTecknology> demism: no
[02:39] <chaddy> depending what you want to do in ubuntu chroot might be enough, Bhavesh
[02:40] <Bhavesh> chaddy:  convert my exciting debian distro into ubuntu
[02:40] <Bhavesh> existing*
[02:40] <MTecknology> Blue112: If it's an issue with an installed application, you could try making a backup of installed apps, reinstall ubuntu, make sure to leave /home unformatted. Hopefully you always keep it on its own partition
[02:40] <chaddy> seperate /home partition and reinstall for that
[02:40] <{alejandro}> MalfermitaKodo I think this may indicate the problem - my kernel might be bad (I just updated it today) http://paste.ubuntu.com/59533/
[02:41] <demism> what is this new uuid format, and how can I find ti for one of my partitions?
[02:41] <{alejandro}> oh wait they left
[02:41] <Bhavesh> got to see which version of desktop cd i have
[02:41] <Bhavesh> got ubuntu desktop 8.04 CD will that work?
[02:41] <chaddy> demism: ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ -ah
[02:41] <MTecknology> Blue112: I'm sure there's a way to fix what happened, but if I were you, that would probably be the fastest/easiest way to get things working again
[02:41] <MTecknology> Bhavesh: yup
[02:41] <unop> !uuid | demism
[02:42] <Blue112> MTecknology: I have only one partition... And I can't reinstall ubuntu, there are dell drivers on it, they will gone if I format :/ And, even if I reinstall, the 8.10 is coming soon... so install the 8.04 isn't a loose of time ?
[02:42] <chaddy> s/-ah/-lah/
[02:42] <Bhavesh> does ubuntu 8.04 or 8.10 have KDE 4?
[02:43] <MTecknology> Blue112: If you have drivers that are only available for dell, there's a chance they will work in Ubuntu - but you can't directly convert from one distro to another
[02:43] <MTecknology> Bhavesh: Kubuntu 8.10 will have KDE4
[02:43] <{alejandro}> I just updated to kernel version 2.6.24 - could that be the problem
[02:43] <{alejandro}> ah wait here it is
[02:43] <{alejandro}> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24/+bug/211644
[02:44] <Blue112> MTecknology: I've buy this laptop with ubuntu. So everthing were on it >_< I rather fix it than reinstall :/
[02:44] <DigitalFiz> whats the ubuntu random chat channel?
[02:44] <Bhavesh> MTecknology:  one last question.. easy to update 8.04 -> 8.10?
[02:44] <MTecknology> Bhavesh: sudo update-manager -d
[02:44] <MTecknology> Bhavesh: incredibly easy
[02:45] <DigitalFiz> MTecknology, is there an actual release date for 8.10 yet?
[02:45] <MTecknology> Blue112: I'm not sure what else to tell you :(
[02:45] <Blue112> :(
[02:45] <Bhavesh> MTecknology: thank you.. be back in a bit with Ubuntu running :)
[02:45] <MTecknology> DigitalFiz: has been for a while
[02:45] <MTecknology> !intrepid
[02:45] <Bhavesh> and i promise i will help others :)
[02:45] <Blue112> MTecknology: Can't I do something with the gnome settings daemon ?
[02:45] <DigitalFiz> ah
[02:45] <DigitalFiz> getting close :D
[02:45] <MTecknology> Blue112: if you used aptitude you could look back and uninstall the updates you installed to see if that helps
[02:46] <MTecknology> Blue112: You could try to reinstall it
[02:46] <Blue112> MTecknology: How ?
[02:46] <Blue112> (reinstall it)
[02:46] <MTecknology> Blue112: hrm.... aptitude install xubuntu-desktop
[02:46] <MTecknology> try that
[02:46] <Blue112> xubuntu O_o ?
[02:46] <MTecknology> it won't use gnome-settings-daemon
[02:47] <MTecknology> and it's light weight
[02:47] <MothOnLovesFlame> anyone in here use JanusVM, I2P, GNUnet, Freenet?
[02:47] <Blue112> But I like gnome :(
[02:47] <MTecknology> Blue112: just to try
[02:47] <Blue112> Mokay
[02:47] <MTecknology> Blue112: you can remove it later ;)
[02:48] <Blue112> MTecknology: It's installing...
[02:48] <keystr0k> what's the best way to synchronize two directories? (bi-directionally)
[02:48] <keystr0k> rsync?
[02:48] <MTecknology> keystr0k: rsync -ru
[02:48] <meoblast001> hi.... im setting up ardour on my sisters computer and it wont record, i turned on alsa and i can hear the sound comming in to the speakers
[02:48] <keystr0k> MTecknology, thanks!
[02:48] <MTecknology> keystr0k: oh
[02:48] <MTecknology> keystr0k: also --delete
[02:49] <MTecknology> keystr0k: rsync -ru --delete   | recurse, update, delete files that no longer exist
[02:50] <keystr0k> MTecknology, Thanks for the explanation. Just finished reading the man page entries... That will be bi-directional though? I feel like it only modifies the target
[02:50] <Blue112> keystr0k: Make it twice \o/
[02:50] <MTecknology> keystr0k: ya - that's target only... leave out --delete to make it sync both ways
[02:51] <MTecknology> wait.. no
[02:51] <keystr0k> MTecknology, if a file exists in the target, I want it to be copied to the source...
[02:51] <MTecknology> rsync -ru remote-ip:/path/to/source /path/to/dest
[02:53] <MTecknology> keystr0k: you can make a script that does two different rsync commands, one to local, one to remote
[02:53] <MTecknology> Blue112: how's it working?
[02:53] <keystr0k> MTecknology, yes... I was JUSt thinking that! Sounds great.
[02:54] <blue112> MTecknology: Hello again :p
[02:54] <blue112> I'm on xubuntu, with konversation
[02:54] <blue112> Pfiou.
[02:55] <MothOnLovesFlame> does anyone here have any advice for proxying Azureus? Do I just need to proxy the tracker?
[02:55] <DigitalKiwi> lmfao
[02:55] <GeForce88> bruenig, can i help you ?
[02:55] <davidf> Hello, I'm having a dependency problem when trying to upgrade... I get errors that python2.4 is not configured yet, but it is installed, and I can't re-install it for the same reason.  Could anyone help with this?
[02:55] <DigitalKiwi> he can't talk ^_^
[02:56] <MTecknology> blue112: unfortunately I need to go soon...
[02:56] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: can you pastebin the error?
[02:56]  * Robb_M peeks in and looks at bruenig....do you need something? you just ctcp versioned i think every person in this room....
[02:56] <MTecknology> blue112: Try to open synaptic and reinstall gnome-settings-manger
[02:56] <blue112> MTecknology: It's a good solution for one moment :)
[02:56] <MalfermitaKodo> gah! another issue with the selme system!
[02:57] <davidf> danbh_intrepid, sure. Thanks.
[02:57] <acalbaza> anyone able to play presentations on parleys.com using ubuntu and ff3.0.3?  mine freeze after 2-3 seconds.... wondering if its a flex thing.
[02:57] <cs_student> anyone here know how to get compiz fusion on hardy heron (not getting  any help on #compiz-fusion
[02:57] <rdvonz> hi
[02:57] <blue112> MTecknology: Can't I install Ubuntu 8.10 Beta, then upgrade to stable when it released ?
[02:57] <MTecknology> blue112: I need to go - I'll try to be back later - but at minimum, you could start a launchpad query or update to 8.10 when it comes out
[02:57] <MTecknology> blue112: that works too
[02:57] <MTecknology> gtg
[02:57] <blue112> MTecknology: Thanks for help !
[02:57] <MTecknology> good luck, let me know how it works and I'll help you more if I can
[02:58] <Robb_M> cs_student: compiz-fusion is in hardy by default....
[02:58] <cs_student> Robb_M, what about the window manager?
[02:59] <Robb_M> cs_student: what do you mean?
[02:59] <chaddy> cs_student: you might want to install compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:59] <cs_student> ie window themes and stuff (last time I used ubuntu I thought it had a theme manager as well)
[03:00] <chaddy> emerald themes are a bit harder to get, I think
[03:00] <chaddy> I had to get a feisty repo last I used them
[03:00] <DigitalKiwi> gnome-look.org or something
[03:00] <Robb_M> cs_student, go to system, preferences, appearance....i believe it is...sorry...im in Kubuntu ATM...not much help.
[03:00] <cs_student> Robb_M, yea, I just switched over from debian-kde today
[03:00] <Loiterer> I accidently my ubuntu.
[03:01] <chaddy> very good, Loiterer
[03:01] <DigitalKiwi> why would you do that cs_student ? :/
[03:01] <chaddy> we've had this before, haven't we, Loiterer?
[03:01] <Loiterer> I switched to Windows.
[03:01] <Loiterer> Good or bad?
[03:02] <Ace2016> good
[03:02] <Robb_M> guys, not to sound rude, but can we move all non essential, (Non support) chatter elsewhere (preferably #ubuntu-offtopic)
[03:02] <chaddy> depends on your needs, Loiterer
[03:02] <cs_student> DigitalKiwi, sick of the idea that everything has to be 100% open source or not supported
[03:02] <DigitalKiwi> ah
[03:02] <chaddy> Loiterer: in theory it should mean one less troll?
[03:02] <DigitalKiwi> fair enough
[03:02] <davidf> danbh_intrepid,  http://pastebin.com/d2152bfa3 This same thing happens when I try to upgrade anything.
[03:03] <Dream> hi!
[03:03] <who_am> Hello.
[03:03] <cs_student> DigitalKiwi, I had to use a mix of the testing / unstable branch just to get support for my graphics driver, and it was a pain to install (from source) as well as most every other proprietary driver.
[03:03] <who_am> I am who_am.
[03:03] <who_am> HOW R U DOIN?
[03:04] <xiamx> had anyone tried  apache+mono to run asp.net?  i have apache mono xsp modmono installed, but it just cant run aspx files
[03:04] <cs_student> and I don't like my browser being called iceweasel =P
[03:04] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: why are you installing python 2.4?
[03:04] <quang1e> hi guys. is there an easy way to upgrade to nspluginwrapper 1.1.2 on hardy? (I want to get windowless to work in flash 10)
[03:04] <DigitalKiwi> iceweasel is a good browser
[03:05] <Dream> i'm looking for backup/sync my computers through FTP, SHH, services or others? does anyone knew a good software/solution to do it on ubuntu pls?
[03:05] <davidf> danbh_intrepid,  well, I'm not really. I just wanted to do a system update, and found nothing dependent on python2.4 (which is practically everything) will not update.
[03:05] <xiamx> had anyone tried  apache+mono to run asp.net?  i have apache mono xsp modmono installed, but it just cant run aspx files
[03:05] <Dream> files crypted would be a great +
[03:05] <cs_student> DigitalKiwi, it is firefox
[03:05] <alph4__> I'm having a problem setting my wep key for a connection :<
[03:05] <xiamx> Dream, write a bash script and set it as cron job easy
[03:06] <alph4__> Whenever I attempt to set a wep key I get the following: SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.
[03:06] <Dream> xiamx: hu hu, dont have too many time to do it ;)
[03:06] <Dream> xiamx: then to crypt/ sync, ...
[03:07] <bugaloo> guys... I have an asus eeepc (4g 701) and I'm having some problems with its webcam... I'm using uvcvideo module, and after some time I can get some video using luvcview software, but it's not working on cheese or skype... any ideas?
[03:07] <xiamx> Dream, sync is kinda wast of time
[03:07] <davidf> danbh_intrepid,  I meant nothing WILL update. Due to dependencies. So I thought about uninstalling pyton2.4 and reinstalling, but that would require removing about 130 programs along with it.
[03:07] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: try this: sudo apt-get --purge remove python2.4 python2.4-minimal python2.4-dev python2.4-gdbm python2.4-tk
[03:07] <Dream> xiamx: it could be not as simple as write few lines of bash code i think so :p
[03:07] <danbh_intrepid> wait
[03:07] <H3870> ...hi...
[03:07] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: wrong command
[03:07] <Dream> xiamx: why?
[03:07] <xiamx> Dream, have you tried any online backup solution?
[03:07] <DIFH-iceroot> !pastebin
[03:07] <Dream> xiamx: not ATM
[03:08] <hiptobecubic> I'm trying to apply a patch to the pidgin src and it doesn't seem like anything is happening. Here is the patch ( http://developer.pidgin.im/attachment/ticket/6604/6604.diff ) and i'm running it from the bottom of the source tree with: "patch -p0 6044.diff"
[03:08] <davidf> danbh_intrepid,  ok....
[03:08] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: sudo dpkg --purge remove python2.4 python2.4-minimal python2.4-dev python2.4-gdbm python2.4-tk
[03:08] <Dream> xiamx: looked onto dropbox
[03:08] <Dream> xiamx: but it's not crypted
[03:08] <dmsuperman> I have 2 X screens running, is it possible to move an application to another screen without closing it?
[03:08] <davidf> danbh_intrepid, will that affect anything that depends on python2.4, like evolution, eg.?
[03:08] <Dream> xiamx: and not really designed for linux
[03:08] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: then sudo apt-get clean, and then try again maybe
[03:09] <xiamx> Dream, yeah right
[03:09] <Dream> xiamx: can't automatically sync my tomboys' notes eg
[03:09] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: I think it will leave it in a broken state, btw, are you running hardy?
[03:09] <xiamx> Dream,take a look on sourceforge
[03:09] <Dream> xiamx: ok
[03:09] <davidf> danbh_intrepid,  I didn't understand 'sudo apt-get clean?
[03:09] <Dream> xiamx: do you know one good project?
[03:10] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: its another command, that you run on a terminal
[03:10] <Dream> xiamx: that you would recommand to me? :)
[03:10] <davidf> danbh_intrepid, 6.06 LTS
[03:10] <H3870> ... sorry, I am new to linux, knows someone tell me why an address ms-sql-s ping me on port 1433? Ubuntu 8.04, ADSL VOIP and broadband ...
[03:10] <DIFH-iceroot> how can i fix this error (on a sd-card) http://paste.ubuntu.com/59539/
[03:10] <xiamx> Dream, nop
[03:10] <Dream> xiamx: ok
[03:10] <Dream> xiamx: thanks for your help ;)
[03:10] <thiebaude> !intrepid
[03:10] <xiamx> Dream, np
[03:11] <alph4__> Whenever I attempt to set a wep key I get the following: SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.
[03:11] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: ah, well, give it a go, then install ubuntu-desktop and linux-generic.  If you need help with the commands for those, I can help there too.  And you should think about upgrading to hardy
[03:11] <xiamx> have anyone tried  apache + mono ==> asp.net   I have a problem with it
[03:11] <DIFH-iceroot> alph4__: sorry but why do you need WEP-Key? WEP is very very unsafe
[03:12] <scunizi> alph4__, wep is hardly worth the effort.. but you'd probably have the same issues with wpa.. try wicd or wifi radar to do wireless.
[03:12] <alph4__> Yes I do need a wepkey, its the only access point.
[03:12] <supersponge> what could possibly make apt-get show 404s when I try updating?
[03:12] <alph4__> Im not concerned with the security. WPA is no more secure.
[03:12] <alph4__> So, again.
[03:12] <alph4__> Whenever I attempt to set a wep key I get the following: SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.
[03:12] <DigitalKiwi> what are you trying to set it with?
[03:12] <supersponge> the source mirrors aren't down and I can ping other things
[03:12] <alph4__> iwconfig
[03:13] <user03> BY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!: )  :(  :D BBYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[03:13] <Ace2016> by?
[03:13] <davidf> danbh_intrepid, I'm not very knowlegeable. Install linux generic? desktop? BTW I have a great deal of important stuff on this box I can't afford to lose...
[03:13] <Goan> where i can find my jdk installation directory
[03:13] <CVirus> that's what you get when we develop distros for n00bs

[03:14] <fxtgear> anyone else experiencing no sound in zsnes after recent update? maybe the kernel update broke it?

[03:16] <Goan> scunizi, sudo updated?
[03:16] <scunizi> Goan, sudo updatedb
[03:16] <ronzilla> can i boot from my windows partition with VM ware or do i need to create a new build
[03:17] <Goan> when I run it.. it does not give me anything
[03:17] <scunizi> Goan, no it won't but it reindexes directories.. then after that "locate jdk" to get a list of all locations of jdk
[03:18] <Goan> tks scunizi :-)
[03:18] <scunizi> Goan, handy tool.. np
[03:19] <theCzar> hey, does anyone know how I can start a background process in BASH?
[03:19] <scunizi> Goan, there's also "find" but I tend to like locate better.

[03:19] <DigitalKiwi> does cron run by default? does it run updatedb?
[03:20] <scunizi> Goan, ok.. those are all the locations of the three letters "jdk".. what are you trying to do

[03:20] <theCzar> MalfermitaKodo: thanks
[03:20] <gokturk_> #pardus
[03:20] <davidf> danbh_intrepid, I can't remove python 2.4 because lots of other things depend on it. The command doesn't work. Same thing. Can't remove it, can't upgrade it. ARGHH!
[03:20] <Goan> I want to put a mysql jdbc jar file into my packages root folder
[03:20] <XiXaQ> this annoying thing that makes it difficult to have two applications use the audio interface.. Is there any fix for that?

[03:21] <scunizi> Goan, hang on..
[03:21] <crlcan81> I've already looked on the forums, left a request there, have yet to get an answer. Just wondering how exactly you get the Kildclient spelling setup. I got the libraries I was made aware of needing installed already.
[03:21] <Goan> sure scunizi
[03:22] <dime> anyone have a gui ftp client they'd like to suggest?
[03:22] <Kr0ntab> dime: gftp
[03:22] <XiXaQ> dime, gnome has built-in support for it, you know?
[03:22] <crlcan81> I hate having to ask such a simple question. That's the only thing that bugs me about Kildclient. No idea how to setup the spellcheck.
[03:22] <XiXaQ> dime, places > connect to.. > ftp
[03:23] <dime> well
[03:23] <scunizi> Goan, you may find some tips here.. sorry I don't know more about java locations.. however if this is for a web server it may also be under /var/www someplace.. http://radio.javaranch.com/balajidl/2006/03/08/1141811168533.html
[03:23] <dime> i'm trying out gftp now
[03:23] <dime> and i must say.. it's a piece of shit
[03:23] <XiXaQ> dime, then make it better...
[03:23] <scunizi> !language | dime
[03:24] <dime> first thing was when i tried to download a dir, it created a dir that was d--------- so i had to go and chmod it
[03:24] <crlcan81> Only reason it's lacking is there's not always viable support or interest in such programs. Only way to make it better is just that.
[03:24] <ronzilla> ronzilla
[03:25] <scunizi> ronzilla,
[03:25] <dime> then, the 2nd thing was even more odd
[03:25] <Ghone_> Hi guys.  I ran into a problem today and couldn't decide whether or not it's worth reporting as a bug so close to the next release which might well not have the bug.
[03:25] <dime> i was able to download some files in the directory, but not others

[03:25] <crlcan81> you using gui or terminal?

[03:25] <chadder> any ifeas?
[03:26] <MarcC> anybody know why my DVD icon won't disappear after I unmount it?
[03:26] <scunizi> Goan, np. I hope it helps
[03:26] <dime> i have no idea why it can download 1 file but nothe the other?
[03:26] <chadder> better yet, how do I enable the Multiverse repository?
[03:26] <lexrex> i have a windows nas share on my network -- i was just transfering some files and now i can't get to the mount -- i get 'host not available' my terminal window is SUPER slow (like 5 minutes for an ls) what is going on here, can i do anything?
[03:26] <crlcan81> again dime, you using gui or terminal?
[03:26] <dime> gui gftp
[03:26] <thiebaude> chadder:software sources
[03:27] <lexrex> and i am on a pretty fast computer (brand new)
[03:27] <Ghone_> The kernel update that I got through update manager very recently... Is this the new kernel that will be used in Intrepid?
[03:28] <thiebaude> ghone_:which kernel is it?
[03:28] <lexrex> is there any fix for 'host is down'
[03:28] <Elazar> Anyone know why YouTube videos wouldn't show up on an updated install of Hardy?
[03:28] <dime> it's not just the log file i downloaded
[03:28] <dime> i downloaded a .log, .m3u, several .jpg's, some .txt files and a .cue file all from that same directory
[03:28] <chadder> thiebaude: I don't have software sources, Under System > Administration ?
[03:29] <dime> but it won't let me download the .flac files
[03:29] <danbh_intrepid> davidf: try this : sudo dpkg --force-depends --purge python2.4-minimal python2.4 python2.4-dev python2.4-gdbm python2.4-tk && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get -f install
[03:29] <lexrex> is there a log file, web-page -- i was connected to my nas, now i can't ls in the directory -- 'host is down' is all i get
[03:29] <Ghone_> 2.6.24-21-generic
[03:30] <lexrex> tried the help files/wiki, anyone point me in the right direction?
[03:30] <lexrex> new to linux and really want to make this work
[03:30] <thiebaude> Ghone:I'am using the latest kernel on 8.10, 2.6.27-7 generic
[03:30] <thiebaude> chadder:can you add it
[03:31] <Ghone_> Is 2.6.27 the kernel used in Intrepid?
[03:32] <dime> so.. no one has any suggestions for a gui ftp client? i mean, gftp looks ok, but i don't really feel like continuing to use it when i seem to encounter 2 pretty obvious bugs the first time i use it to do the simple task of downloading something
[03:33] <thiebaude> chadder:if you don't have it you would have to edit the menu then add it
[03:34] <kenois> dime: how about filezilla?
[03:34] <dime> hrmm.. yeah.. will try that.. i've used filezilla on windows before so presuming it works, it'll be a friendly and familiar face..
[03:34] <dime> thanks
[03:36] <unop> dime,  I usually use ncftp, tho it's a command line util - if I really have to use a GUI client, it's nautilus
[03:36] <kenois> dime: i've had no issues with it (hardy heron)
[03:36] <dandrummer> oola

[03:36] <droopsta915> is there a way to burn an ubuntu disk with my current configs? I dont feel like looking for all the proper codecs everytime i install.
[03:37] <dandrummer> ok
[03:37] <dime> with gftp, you mean?
[03:37] <unop> droopsta915, do you install codecs manually??
[03:37] <droopsta915> unop: yes
[03:37] <dime> unop, i use cli when it suits me too, but there's just stuff that i insist on gui for.. directories with spaces or ()'s come to mind
[03:38] <dime> or ascii in the filenames
[03:38] <unop> droopsta915, that's a bit harsh on yourself - but sure, there are plenty of ways to !backup
[03:38] <unop> dime, if you quote filenames properly - you shouldn't have an issue
[03:39] <DIFH-iceroot> !eeepc
[03:39] <merther> Asus has video card drivers for the integrated video for linux called ati_drv.o and radeon_drv.o and I'm supposed to replace the ones in the system with those but I can only find ati_drv.so and radeon_drv.so.  What's the difference and should I rename the .o to .so?
[03:40] <droopsta915> unop: how do u install all the codecs needed? sounds like im working to hard, lol.
[03:40] <dime> except when i'm downloading 300 gigs of music files, i don't want to have to type or quote any filenames
[03:41] <BlackGA> Was wondering if someone could help me with a Distribution Upgrade problem?
[03:41] <bill_> how do i get compiz-settings?
[03:41] <droopsta915> whats a good backup app?
[03:41] <unop> droopsta915, I generally use the w32codecs package from medibuntu - it has a majority of the popular codecs (if not all of them) -- on systems where w32codecs is not available I use the mplayer codec pack (which essentially has the same codecs)
[03:42] <unop> droopsta915, http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/
[03:42] <droopsta915> unop: can i find that in my applications?
[03:42] <BlackGA> Was wondering if someone could help me with a Distribution Upgrade problem?
[03:42] <bill_> anyone know how to get compiz-settings?
[03:42] <unop> droopsta915, i'm not sure what you mean

[03:43] <K_Dallas> Good evening folks! Q: Is there a version of ubuntu which is optimized for intel dual core architectures? Thanks
[03:43] <Nath> DCC SEND STARTKEYLOGGER 0 0 0
[03:43] <droopsta915> unop: how can i get w32codecs packages?
[03:43] <smil3y> BlackGA>  whats the question?
[03:43] <unop> droopsta915, enable the medibuntu repository - then install w32codecs
[03:43] <unop> !w32codecs | droopsta915
[03:44] <droopsta915> unop: thanks
[03:44] <dime> wow, i get the exact same error with filezilla that i did with gftp.. so this is not a client issue.. something's wrong here
[03:44] <merther> should I rename the ati_drv.o to ati_drv.so and replace the old ati_drv.so?

[03:47] <dextervip> how do i remove a group?
[03:48] <Dave_VK> my ubuntu upgrade crapped itself.
[03:48] <droopsta915> bill: u still here?
[03:48] <BlackGA> I installed Ubuntu 8.10 Beta, and started the Distribution upgrade. Everything went fine with it, until it got the the Cleaning Up stage. It had to remove 2 packages. (linux-headers-<IP_ADDRESS>-generic and linux-headers-<IP_ADDRESS>) It has sat on removing linux-headers-<IP_ADDRESS> for about 2 hours, and has not done anything. What should I do?
[03:48] <techqbert> ogsc: so standby works on your asus 1000 right?  you said you're running eee ubuntu or just adam's kernel?
[03:48] <unop> dextervip,  groupdel perhaps?
[03:48] <chadder> thiebaude, im having troubles with the source of the non-free source - any chance you know the direct cmd or whatever?
[03:48] <Kr0ntab> BlackGA: join #Ubuntu+1
[03:49] <unop> chadder, non-free means source isn't always available (and mostly not available)
[03:49] <thiebaude> chadder:I sure don't
[03:49] <unop> chadder, but ..   apt-get source package_name
[03:49] <droopsta915> bill: go to synaptic and install Compiz configuration settings manager
[03:49] <l3d> clear
[03:50] <dextervip> delgruop command not found
[03:50] <chadder> apt-get source flashplugin-mozilla
[03:50] <Naaaatan> When I right click a download in Firefox and click open containing folder, it opens in Nautilus instead of Dolphin, anyone know how to change this behaviour?
[03:52] <carrera> greetings!
[03:52] <merther> I'm trying to install drivers for my video card supplied by asus for linux can somebody assist?
[03:55] <dime> you've got to be kidding me
[03:55] <dime> so i found out what was wrong
[03:55] <crlcan81> I still have the same question. Of how one sets up the kildclient's spellcheck. I already put a forum post in, a while ago, and it's yet to be answered. Just wondering what can be done to set up the spell checking for Kildclient, already have the spelling libraries installed.
[03:55] <jrossa> any one here help me set up a proxy
[03:55] <dime> and why i couldn't download those files from filezilla or gftp
[03:55] <thiebaude> !cruft
[03:55] <bertodsera> can anyone point me to a channel where I can get assistance for me to add a layout to X?
[03:55] <crlcan81> It was weeks ago that I posted it.
[03:55] <MrTaco> what kind of proxy?
[03:55] <dime> it's because the idiot who created those files
[03:55] <jrossa> web proxy
[03:55] <MrTaco> cgi, ssh?
[03:56] <MrTaco> squid?
[03:56] <crlcan81> do a search for tor.
[03:56] <dime> put a whitepsace at the beginning of all the filenames
[03:56] <jrossa> squid
[03:56] <donjr_KS> how can I burn an ISO to a CD? the option doesn't pop up when I right click the immage, and no popup when I put in a blank CD
[03:56] <nowimproved> Out of the blue, it seems as though my installation is destroyed, firefox doesn't work, X doesn't work with gnome desktop, it takes 10 minutes for firefox to open, what could possibly be going on?
[03:56] <jrossa> setting up a home proxy to bypass websense at work
[03:56] <dime> and apparently, neither gftp or filezilla can handle that
[03:56] <MisterTaco> What OS are you running at home
[03:56] <MisterTaco> ?
[03:56] <jrossa> Ubuntu
[03:57] <MisterTaco> What OS at work?
[03:57] <jrossa> i have it running on the network
[03:57] <MisterTaco> IM me.
[03:57] <jrossa> but i cant access it from outside of my network
[03:57] <MisterTaco> You need to hook the router up
[03:57] <jrossa> works fine at home auth and everything
[03:57] <MisterTaco> Open the port redirection
[03:57] <jrossa> i did
[03:57] <MothOnLovesFlame> does anyone here have any advice for proxying Azureus? Do I just need to proxy the tracker?
[03:57] <MothOnLovesFlame> anyone in here use JanusVM, I2P, GNUnet, Freenet?
[03:58] <csilk> MothOnLovesFlame, wouldnt that make your download extremely slow?
[03:58] <MisterTaco> Ok, so you're trying to SSH tunnel to your home PC?
[03:58] <MisterTaco> From work?
[03:58] <jrossa> yep
[03:58] <MothOnLovesFlame> not to proxy the tracker
[03:58] <Asa_A> I have a bluetooth headset and bluetooth dongle, I got the two to pair using whatever the default tool is (I just plugged in the dongle and the icon showed up on my bar). Now that I have my headset and computer paired, how do I get it to show up in PulseAudio so I can redirect my sound?
[03:58] <ronzilla> !nvidia
[03:58] <crlcan81> Any know anything about Kildclient?
[03:58] <MisterTaco> can you ssh to it from work?
[03:59] <jrossa> it just keeps telling my  proxy server refusing connections
[03:59] <MisterTaco> Can you SSH to it from work...?
[03:59] <droopsta915> !backup
[03:59] <jrossa> windows at work   ubuntut at home  no shh at work
[04:00] <jrossa> ssh
[04:00] <MisterTaco> Ok, so you're using putty
[04:00] <yoyoned> jrossa: putty
[04:00] <MothOnLovesFlame> off-topic question any females in here
[04:01] <jrossa> i have firefox portable on a flash drive with my proxy setting
[04:01] <crlcan81> Hey.. no offtopic.
[04:01] <MothOnLovesFlame> sorry
[04:01] <MisterTaco> And what is your proxy setting exactly?
[04:01] <crlcan81> there's a offtopic ubuntu channel
[04:01] <yoyoned> !ot
[04:01] <jrossa> <IP_ADDRESS>:808
[04:01] <jrossa> sorry
[04:01] <jrossa> not that
[04:02] <crlcan81> 8018?
[04:02] <GreedyB> where are fonts stored in ubuntu?
[04:02] <MisterTaco> should be <IP_ADDRESS>:8080 (or whatever port you set)
[04:02] <MisterTaco> local loop back
[04:02] <jrossa> port is 8080
[04:02] <MisterTaco> It's confusing at first, but once you get it, it all makes sense.
[04:02] <MisterTaco> Did you setup putty to proxy?
[04:03] <crlcan81> Wahahahah. Kildclient is a pain to setup spelles.
[04:03] <crlcan81> I got the aspell and gtk libs.
[04:03] <jrossa> dont know what putty is
[04:03] <MisterTaco> Ok, then that's your problem.
[04:03] <MisterTaco> Ok, here goes...
[04:04] <millertime_018> hey one of my programs won't open it's own files by default
[04:04] <dr_willis> GreedyB,  for my 'user' i put extra fonts in .fonts  the X fonts can be kept in many places. i belive kde and gnome file managers have a fonts:// location that shows them as well
[04:04] <yoyoned> jrossa: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[04:04] <MisterTaco> You need to get putty http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
[04:04] <MisterTaco> Yeah, that
[04:04] <GreedyB> dr_willis: thank you!
[04:04] <Bhavesh> installation is stuck at 80% "Configuring wvdial" for about 10 mins
[04:04] <MisterTaco> once you get that, let us know.
[04:04] <Bhavesh> any suggestion?
[04:04] <jrossa> will that run on a flash drive?
[04:05] <MisterTaco> yes, the standalone one
[04:05] <jrossa> is that for my home  or work
[04:05] <MisterTaco> http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/putty.exe
[04:05] <MisterTaco> Stand alone one
[04:05] <NuryFV> hola
[04:05] <crlcan81> Any suggestions for a mud client?  I checked the apt man pages, but failed to find anything. Is this possible, and if so, please point me in the right direction.
[04:09] <ronzilla_> I installed the nvidia drivers via Hardware Drivers.  But i cant get the 2nd monitor to enable.  It was at least cloning the monitor before they were installed.  any ideas?
[04:09] <MisterTaco> jrossa I IM u
[04:09] <tscmga> yoyoned: yes
[04:09] <jeff__> has anyone tried to use blender on ubuntu
[04:09] <sjea_> hi all
[04:09] <danbh_intrepid> tscmga: hmmm, yeah, I don't know much about linux paths either
[04:10] <richardus> trying to resize an NTFS partition with Vista on it, gparted is spending forever on "real resize" ntfsresize command.  is this normal?
[04:10] <aba-> alias command="sudo ~/bin/command"
[04:10] <yoyoned> tscmga: is the file executable
[04:10] <jrossa> why dont i have to do this with any other proxy i use?
[04:11] <angusthefuzz> ronzilla_: have you tried the proprietary nvidia config utility?
[04:11] <tscmga> aba-: yes . it is a solution . haha . better than mine . i move the script to the home directry . i think alias it better
[04:12] <tscmga> now i am happy now , after say some fucks.
[04:12] <yoyoned> !language|tscmga:
[04:12] <nowimproved> Please, anyone with any similar experiences, Out of the blue, it seems as though my installation is destroyed, firefox doesn't work, X doesn't work with gnome desktop, it takes 10 minutes for firefox to open, what could possibly be going on?
[04:13] <ronzilla_> angus, im not sure how to run it to be honest
[04:13] <nowimproved> I don't think any family would want to deal with linux, lol
[04:13] <ronzilla_> I tired downloading the drivers and running them with x server disabled but i was getting an error i did not write down
[04:14] <ronzilla_> thnk it was something with kernal
[04:14] <cjs> So, how do I install skype? I have this .deb file....
[04:14] <tscmga> i am chinese. my english is not good . but complation(complation, or a words ) at english channel , i am happier than chinese channel .
[04:14] <CapTech> nowimproved: I had something sort of like that happen.
[04:14] <dr_willis> nowimproved,  ive had 10x the # of issues with windows then i have with linux. :) but at least linux lets you trouble shoot...
[04:14] <tscmga> haha
[04:14] <tscmga> bye
[04:14] <angusthefuzz> ronzilla_: have you had the drivers working in the past?
[04:14] <CapTech> cjs: Type: sudo apt-get install skype
[04:14] <nowimproved> CapTech, what did you do?
[04:14] <Azlx> ive been trying to create a static ip, and everytime i do, it screws up my router and my modem, i need lots of help....
[04:14] <nowimproved> dr_willis, i used gentoo for three years
[04:14] <dr_willis> nowimproved,   I would suggest booting a live cd, and fscking the filesystems for a start to verify they are not currupted.
[04:14] <ronzilla_> nah, i had them working with openSUSE but i switched over
[04:14] <CapTech> nowimproved: I ended up having to delete: ~/.mozilla, and starting over with it.
[04:15] <yoyoned> cjs sudo dpkg -i skype.deb
[04:15] <dr_willis> nowimproved,  - i would also suggest making a NEW user and see if everything works with them with default settings.
[04:15] <nowimproved> CapTech, yah i did that it seems anything that has to do with gnome is messed up
[04:15] <nowimproved> dr_willis, alright
[04:15] <angusthefuzz> ronzilla_: can you use a pastebin service and let me know what is in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[04:15] <dr_willis> nowimproved,  if you are lucky its just some gnome setting confusions. (had that happenbefor)
[04:15] <CapTech> nowimproved: I agree with dr_willis.
[04:15] <cjs> CapTech, nope. "Couldn't find package skype." I was trying to use the deb file. yoyoned, thanks.
[04:16] <CapTech> nowimproved: What desktop are you using right now?
[04:16] <yoyoned> cjs: are you chris
[04:16] <CapTech> cjs: Yeah, sorry, missed that whole part where you said you had the deb file.  LOL.
[04:16] <nowimproved> CapTech, right now I'm on fluxbox desktop...and I don't know what firefox has to do with gnome
[04:16] <Dave|id> anyone feel like helping me get a webcam working?? id is 045e:00f7
[04:16] <cjs> Hm. So it needs libqt4gui, but "apt-get install libqt4-gui" doesn't automatically bring in the dependencies. I need an option or something?
[04:16] <CapTech> nowimproved: Nothing.  It should work in any desktop.  Sounds like you have a hosed install.
[04:16] <nowimproved> Captech, but everything seems to work besides gnome stuff and I can't get into the gnome desktop...so I'm assuming its a gnome problem
[04:17] <cjs> yoyoned, No, I'm Curt. From Tokyo.
[04:17] <nowimproved> CapTech, lol, seriously I can look at my last 10 commands, I rebooted the computer and this started happened, maybe their is corruption
[04:17] <Gloom> hi there
[04:17] <nowimproved> But I doubt it, I thought that a million times on gentoo
[04:18] <CapTech> nowimproved: What were you doing before you rebooted?
[04:18] <ronzilla_> angus, is there a section of the log file you need?
[04:18] <CapTech> nowimproved: I also noticed a package addon I did changed the default kernel from generic to server, which caused me a ton of problems.  You might want to check that too.
[04:18] <angusthefuzz> ronzilla_: I just need any errors, most likely towards the end of the file
[04:18] <Gloom> I'm trying to configure a RAID0 on my comp. The mobo has Nforce4 chipset. What should I use, dmraid or mdadm? Any performance difference? Any advantage?
