[05:50] <BrMiHi08> hello
[05:50] <funalien> how can I create a pppoe adsl connection in the kubuntu?
[05:51] <billy> magnetron_, that doesn't answer my question.l
[05:51] <nibsa1242_> eztk should the cd even matter after a chroot anyway? am i not only using what is on my hd after the chroot?
[05:51] <bengl> it was working before i upgraded
[05:51] <phixnay> Krishn1: try pressing ctrl-alt-F1, and then doing sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. You can leave the default options for most things, but pay special attention to the monitor part, and choose the vesa driver
[05:51] <PriceChild> sc0tch, "should",  howeve rbest to just use one or the other
[05:51] <Stinge1> bengl: make sure you have beryl-manager installed as well
[05:51] <demo_> PriceChild: ive been told theres and alternative fglrx that works with aiglx, is it true?
[05:51] <IndyGunFreak> GoDawgs: ok, good luck
[05:51] <nibsa1242_> eztk I'm a real estate agent in the UK... I have an open house today
[05:51] <GoDawgs> IndyGunFreak: thanks :)
[05:51] <BrMiHi08> I am guessing I am not in the right chat for 7.04 am I?
[05:51] <Stinge1> bengl: as well as beryl-settings-manager
[05:51] <LjL> sc0tch: i don't think it will. however, now apt-get (the whole APT, actually) has the same feature of aptitude where you can auto-remove unused dependencies
[05:51] <nibsa1242_> eztk sorry in the US
[05:51] <PriceChild> demo_, the original drivers installed on your box would hav eworked. However uninstalling fglrx is NOT easy
[05:51] <bengl> yeah they're all installed
[05:51] <LjL> sc0tch: but i'm afraid the list is not synced with aptitude's
[05:51] <phixnay> BrMiHi08: this is the feisty chat
[05:51] <fabbos> I just upgraded to feisty -  and its broken, i can tboot to a normal console, how can i boot to a console where i can use apt-get
[05:51] <vfl> Razor44:  apt-get clean  or apt-get autoclean
[05:51] <BrMiHi08> thanks phixnay
[05:51] <Tuple> PriceChild ATI fglrx on Xgl working here
[05:51] <eztk> nibsa1242_ : property so much cheaper in the US. I'm jealous. as for the CD, you're probably right. perhaps it downloads from the internet? is it worth doing a memtest86+ ?
[05:51] <sc0tch> Thanks PriceChild / LjL
[05:52] <magnetron_> billy: the point is that the firestarter rules ARE iptables rules
[05:52] <Stinge1> bengl: tried removing compiz and then re-installing beryl?
[05:52] <BrMiHi08> I am still having a hard time getting my wireless to work
[05:52] <Krishn1> can anyone help me out with installation of feisty???
[05:52] <PriceChild> Tuple, yes
[05:52] <dinoerata> my fiesty works absolutely so great, but i got a problem. I used SUSE 10 to backup a lot of info on DVDs now i cannot read them, HELP !!!
[05:52] <demo_> Tuple: is XGL laggy for you?
[05:52] <PriceChild> Tuple, what doesn't work is fglrx with aiglx
[05:52] <KevinSJ> I cant get my MySQL to work, i try this in terminal "mysql -u root" and get the error "ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[05:52] <KevinSJ> "
[05:52] <hak5fan> IndyGunFreak: I'm trying to boot the cd with the server boot option hope that works
[05:52] <esperegu> how can I make sure that I get the right access permissions to certain entries in /dev at boot time???
[05:52] <bengl> i haven't , i suppose that's worth a shot
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> hak5fan: never done that. sorry
[05:52] <phixnay> BrMiHi08: np
[05:52] <billy> magnetron_, ok.  thanks.  that's what I needed to know.
[05:52] <Stinge1> snaunton - did you register your new nick?
[05:52] <eztk> krishn1: only advise ill give you is do not upgrade from edgy to feisty. its buggy and broken and quite frankly not worth it. but hey, you said install and not upgrade :p
[05:53] <demo_> PriceChild: is there any way to do it then?
[05:53] <nibsa1242_> eztk its been a long night/day of trying to get my desktop box fixed... I'm quite annoyed at this upgrading process the one reason I moved from Fedora Core to Ubuntu was because I hated the way FC upgraded... I could do a memtest86+ I'm 95% sure it'll come out fine unless my computer decided to goto shit I've memtested these modules b4 and they were fine
[05:53] <snaunton> Stinge1 - I think so.
[05:53] <KevinSJ> I cant get my MySQL to work, i try this in terminal "mysql -u root" and get the error "ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[05:53] <fabbos> I just upgraded to feisty -  and its broken, i can tboot to a normal console, how can i boot to a console where i can use apt-get
[05:53] <Razor44> vfl,thanks that did it
[05:53] <BrMiHi08> Has anyone here gotten their wireless card to connect to their network that is encrypted?
[05:53] <eztk> is it possible to quit fsck.. its still hanging on 5% ... GRRR
[05:53] <PriceChild> demo_, use xgl
[05:53] <phixnay> My cdrom doesn't work anymore :( Information about it at this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405630&page=6
[05:53] <nibsa1242_> BrMiHi08 yes its possible
[05:53] <ozymandias> so..... um... why does ubuntu not have .torrents on the "Get Ubuntu" page?
[05:53] <KevinSJ> I cant get my MySQL to work, i try this in terminal "mysql -u root" and get the error "ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[05:53] <magnetron_> BrMiHi08: mine works out-of-the-box
[05:53] <Stinge1> snaunton, it worked!! come back!
[05:54] <demo_> PriceChild: i perfer something less laggy and not outdated, do you know any manual to install the "better" flgrx drivers?
[05:54] <Shafto> ozymandias, Because it has soo many mirrors located all over the place that are better than torrents
[05:54] <KevinSJ> Can someone please help me?
[05:54] <magnetron_> KevinSJ, maybe this is not the forum, try #mysql?
[05:54] <Stinge1> !register
[05:54] <KevinSJ> #mysql
[05:54] <KevinSJ> ooops
[05:54] <KevinSJ> /J #mysql
[05:54] <Krishn1> magnetron_: Hi, i'm new to Ubuntu, I was trying to install the feisty on to my system. but i'm not getting the desired resolution. so i'm not able to even install it. I'm not able to move it properly as well..
[05:54] <fabbos> I just upgraded to feisty -  and its broken, i can tboot to a normal console, how can i boot to a console where i can use apt-get
[05:55] <BrMiHi08> magnetron_-That is weird, mine works with every other linux distro when I boot up, and I can find wireless networks, but when I try to connect, I can
[05:55] <BrMiHi08> t
[05:55] <eztk> nibsa1242_ : ok.. cant think of other reasons for that issue you mentioned :s ... yeah i was an FC person too and got fed up with the upgrade issues... but i had issues upgrading from dapper to edgy.,. had to do a reinstall in the end and start from scratch... now there are problems YET AGAIN with upgrading to feisty from edgy.. this really really sucks.....
[05:55] <esperegu> how can I make sure that I get the right access permissions to certain entries in /dev at boot time???
[05:55] <PriceChild> demo_, Okay for the last time. fglrx WILL NOT work with aiglx, only xgl. the ati/radeon drivers work very well with aiglx.
[05:55] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[05:55] <Stinge1> snaunton, i got your message
[05:55] <phixnay> Krishn1: did you read what I suggested?
[05:55] <Stinge1> snaunton, can you not get mine?
[05:55] <goose> so what's a workaround for all of this libpata madness?
[05:55] <eztk> woo hoo
[05:55] <goose> it didn't pick up my drive correctly
[05:55] <fabbos> Ubuntu upgrade sucks as much as FC
[05:55] <eztk> fsck came back to life again :)
[05:55] <demo_> PriceChild: i dont know how to install XGL, and ubuntu-effects isnt helping me at all
[05:55] <Derek_Russo> Hi everyone, I'm just wondering what the default X directory is in feisty
[05:56] <eztk> fabbos: im fed up with it
[05:56] <ozymandias> ah, i found the .torrent file on the "this server is too busy to give you the file" page
[05:56] <nibsa1242_> eztk I think it mainly has to do with when my computer crashed during the upgrade, maybe something got hosed and can't be fixed lucky for me I didn't try to upgrade all my computers at the same time
[05:56] <magnetron_> !offtopic
[05:56] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:56] <snaunton> Stinge1 - no. I think I am registerd though.
[05:56] <Krishn1> phixnay: i couldn't see any.. sorry in case i have missed it..
[05:56] <phixnay> Krishn1: try pressing ctrl-alt-F1, and then doing sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. You can leave the default options for most things, but pay special attention to the monitor part, and choose the vesa driver
[05:56] <PriceChild> demo_, then be patient or search for a guide yourself
[05:56] <countjocular> I just tried to upgrade my edgy installation to feisty. It now hangs on boot up (see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16831/). Anybody got any sugestions? I don't really know how to bugfix this if I can't even get to a prompt.
[05:56] <Shafto> fabbos, Id have to agree, mine broke too
[05:56] <phixnay> try that
[05:56] <eztk> fabbos: i dont have time to fix any mess.. thats why i left windows.. i want to USE my machine, not MAINTAIN or FIX it
[05:56] <magnetron_> !patience > demo
[05:56] <fabbos> eztk, imo it is not ready to be used.
[05:56] <eztk> countjocular: we're all having the same issue.. well some of us anyway
[05:56] <goose> countjocular: apparently they changed a lot of stuff and it breaks a lot of machines :\
[05:56] <eztk> fabbos: its a rushed botched up hulk of a mess.. its junk
[05:56] <phixnay> phixnay: you might have to go on the internet and look up your monitor's specs
[05:57] <phixnay> whoops
[05:57] <t0mu> snaunton, this is former stinge1, can you hear me?
[05:57] <Derek_Russo> does anyone know the X directory as it is by default?
[05:57] <phixnay> Krishn1:  you might have to go on the internet and look up your monitor's specs
[05:57] <nibsa1242_> eztk I hope your touble shooting goes better then mine, I'm off to work now and I'll run memtest while I'm there to see how these OCZ modules are holding up... if they fail at lest they are under lifetime warranty
[05:57] <Krishn1> phixnay: thanks.. will try it soon
[05:57] <Derek_Russo> Xorg that is
[05:57] <fabbos> eztk, yeah.  If it works thats fantastic, and its advertised as such, whihc is terrible
[05:57] <dinoerata> my fiesty works great , but i have a problem, I used SUSE 10 (resierfs) to back up data on dvds, now am using UBUNTU fiesty 7.04, i cannot read the dvd's , KINDLY HELP
[05:57] <eztk> ironic that i have to power up my horrible XP box (the box I used to use) to chat on here and look up stuff
[05:57] <dauoalagio2> hello i just tried installing feisty but came up with an error, so i rebooted and now my computer gets past grub and shows KUBUNTU in big letters with a progress bar but the progress bar doesn't move and after a little while it opens busybox or something.  some command line - don't remember the name.  any ideas?
[05:57] <magnetron_> Derek_Russo: there is several directories for X, rephrase your question
[05:57] <eztk> nibsa1242_ : good luck and see you soon!! let me know how you get on
[05:57] <Clampdown> BrMiHi08: Yep... My wireless seems to be working fine (Belkin WIFI Adapter)
[05:58] <IndyGunFreak> dinoerata: that could be an issue.
[05:58] <Nigromante> hello
[05:58] <jinzo> dinoerata, you'll probably need some reiserfs-tools .deb or something like that
[05:58] <nibsa1242_> eztk I'll be back probably in 3 and a half to four hours
[05:58] <dinoerata> jinzo, where would i find those tools and what am i looking to do
[05:58] <eztk> lol X server just bombed out.. cant find NVIDIA module
[05:58] <countjocular> extk: Thanks. I knew I shouldn't have updgraded so soon :-(
[05:58] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_: I am trying to install my ati driver again, and it is asking me for the directory so it knows what version of xorg to use.  Here's the command line it wants me to fill out: X_VERSION=<xdir> ./ati-driver-installer-<ver>-<arch>.run [--install]
[05:58] <eztk> whats the easiest way to add the NVIDIA module in from command prompt
[05:59] <eztk> !nvidia
[05:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:59] <jovans> why hdparm don't works anymore on ubuntu 7.04?
[05:59] <GoDawgs> i found a GUI tool for modifying your xorg.conf file... for those with dual monitor setups.  it's called xorg-edit
[05:59] <LjL> eztk: uhm, should be done automatically once you have the driver packages properly installed
[05:59] <GoDawgs> it can be downloaded here:  http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=169700&package_id=193569&release_id=482030
[05:59] <jinzo> dinoerata, try to install reiserfsprogs with apt-get
[05:59] <matkix0s> Where can I find "What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
[05:59] <matkix0s> kernel?"
[05:59] <eztk> nibsa1242_ : i might still be here.. thats about 8pm uk time
[05:59] <LjL> jovans: works for me, at least -Tt /dev/hda works
[05:59] <magnetron_> Derek_Russo: why not use the Restricted Drivers Manager? My experience is that it Just Works.
[05:59] <eztk> LjL : it hasnt for some reason :|
[05:59] <mooniker> anyone got any advice for how big a /boot partitions should be for a feisty server?
[06:00] <Frog29> AH! it seems as if my mosue dissapears wheneever my screen blanks.......... does anyone hav a solution? (this is new to 7.04)
[06:00] <dinoerata> thanks, jinzo i really appreciate that, i will try and let you  know
[06:00] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_ is that a new feature in fiesty?  I just upgraded a few seconds ago
[06:00] <jinzo> dinoerata, ok
[06:00] <LjL> eztk: tried rebooting? how did you install the driver? are you on feisty?
[06:00] <eternalswd> I'm having problems with feisty and my ati x300 card.  Initially it didn't load, so I set the driver to vesa and it loaded up.  I then tried setting it back to radeon which is what I had it as for edgy and restarted X and it restarted fine.  In the middle of watching a video, X died and I had to hard reboot.  Now it won't load even with vesa as a driver.  I booted up using edgy's kernel, and it worked, though X dies after a time on it now,
[06:00] <eternalswd> though it loads fine on startup.  I'm at a loss.
[06:00] <jovans> ???
[06:00] <magnetron_> Derek_Russo: yes
[06:00] <jovans> /dev/hda
[06:00] <eztk> errr.. now its hanging on running local boot scripts :|
[06:00] <jovans> now it is /dev/sda
[06:00] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_ great, let me give it a try
[06:00] <Luser> hello
[06:00] <Clampdown> matkix0s: /usr/include?
[06:00] <matkix0s> Anyone Installed VMWARE server with the newest ubuntu?
[06:00] <esperegu> open /dev/kvm: Permission denied <-- how to set permissions at boot time+???
[06:00] <fabbos> LOL that link i read with the checking disks erroris what i have.  Wow.
[06:00] <LjL> jovans: still /dev/hda for me
[06:00] <jovans> because the new sata protocoll for both
[06:01] <Clampdown> matkix0s: oh, sorry... didn't catch the end bit
[06:01] <eztk> LjL: well, i had to chroot into / from rescue CD as the edgy > feisty upgrade failed. i had to do the dpkg --configure -a thing to try and fix the upgrade... i rebooted and now i get this... maybe i should try the -386 kernel instead of -generic ?!
[06:01] <LjL> jovans: but yeah, i suppose with SCSI hdparm doesn't work that well (and sda means SCSI, even though it's really just ATA after all)
[06:01] <IndyGunFreak> eternalswd: get an Nvidia card...lol
[06:01] <matkix0s> Clampdown: Where would I find it? And have you installed VMware?
[06:01] <ircusr> hello
[06:01] <LjL> eztk: actually, i'd say the opposite... what version of nvidia-glx do you have installed? what version of the restricted modules?
[06:01] <LjL> !info nvidia-glx
[06:01] <ubotu> nvidia-glx: NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org driver. In component restricted, is optional. Version 1:1.0.9631+<IP_ADDRESS>-15.20 (feisty), package size 4386 kB, installed size 13352 kB
[06:02] <eztk> LjL: now the boot sequence hangs on local boot scripts /etc/rc.local

[06:02] <fabbos> countjocular, could you please pm me for a bit
[06:02] <dinoerata> jinzo, apt-get does not recognize that package
[06:02] <eternalswd> IndyGunFreak, hindsight's always 20-20, but I don't have the money right now, so that's not an option
[06:02] <jovans> i tryed sudo hdparm -c3 /dev/sda
[06:02] <eztk> LjL: how do I check?
[06:02] <jovans> but don't works
[06:02] <jovans> HDIO_SET_32BIT failed: Invalid argument
[06:02] <Vessquire> is there no startup script for iptables in feisty?
[06:02] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_: Have to download a package first.  I'll let you know in a few minutes if it worked.  Thanks for the help
[06:02] <omfgitsdo> is there some kind of protocol for asking for help?
[06:02] <natsumey> Clampdown,
[06:02] <Frog29> Does anyone know of a 7.04 bug with the mouse dissapearing?

[06:03] <Lukemob> I bought domain ... do I need anything to redirect it to my server?
[06:03] <PriceChild> omfgitsdo, just ask :)
[06:03] <LjL> Lukemob: is that an Ubuntu support question?
[06:03] <omfgitsdo> hi, i have an installation question- i am not at all familiar with anything besides windows and mac
[06:04] <Lukemob> LjL, I mean, do I need anything for my Ubuntu server to use that domain?
[06:04] <matkix0s> How can I tell the KERNAL I'm running?
[06:04] <omfgitsdo> i have partitioned my hd w/ space for windows and free space for an ubuntu install
[06:04] <Nigromante> you need your domain provider to change DNS entries
[06:04] <PriceChild> Lukemob, ask whoever you bought it off how to point the domain to your machine
[06:04] <LjL> Lukemob: i'm not very familiar with that kind of things, but i think it's more a matter of configuring things at the domain provider side
[06:04] <magnetron_> !enter >omfgitsdo
[06:04] <billy> omfgitsdo, just tell the installer to use the free space, and not the entire disk.  :)
[06:04] <tuskernini> omfgitsdo: good stuff...
[06:04] <Lukemob> kk :)
[06:04] <Lukemob> thx
[06:05] <omfgitsdo> the free partitioned isnt formatted
[06:05] <Frog29> Has anyone else had a problem with the mouse dissapearing in ubuntu 7.04?
[06:05] <Typhoe> Hi,
[06:05] <matkix0s> How can I tell the KERNAL I'm running?
[06:05] <xtknight> which "HDIO_"s does libata support so far?
[06:05] <xtknight> matkix0s, uame -a
[06:05] <LjL> matkix0s: uname -r
[06:05] <xtknight> uname*
[06:05] <billy> omfgitsdo, the installer -will- format it.  :)
[06:05] <dauoalagio2> how can i find out what ubuntu is installed on? /dev/sda??
[06:05] <Vessquire> can anyone help me with setting up nat on feisty? I've entered the ip tables commands that I think do it, but its not working
[06:05] <shawn34> I think i have a virus on my second laptop, how can i rewrite the mbr?
[06:05] <xtknight> dauoalagio2, mount | grep /  then look for the partition mounted on /
[06:06] <omfgitsdo> says "no root file system is defined"
[06:06] <billy> dauoalagio2, sudo fdisk -l
[06:06] <Derek_Russo> How do I install compiz in feisty?
[06:06] <omfgitsdo> what file system should i use?
[06:06] <xtknight> dauoalagio2, actually that's silly, just type "mount" and look for what's mounted on /
[06:06] <magnetron_> !firewall > Vessquire
[06:06] <dauoalagio2> xtknight, i am on livecd trying to fix my partition
[06:06] <xtknight> omfgitsdo, probably ext3.  any special usage patterns of yours?
[06:06] <billy> omfgitsdo, ext3
[06:06] <LjL> Derek_Russo: just go to System / Preferences / Desktop effects
[06:06] <Agiofws> anyone want to check if i have set up ubuntu server right to bring up its net interface which it is not doing ?
[06:06] <Typhoe> I have a problem with my PCMCIA wifi card (prism). Was perfectly working in edgy, and get me a kernel bug in feisty
[06:06] <xtknight> <---self proclaimed filesystem expert
[06:06] <Derek_Russo> LijL: when I do that it says "The Composite extension is not available"
[06:06] <eztk> LjL - the versions check out for nvidia.glx, BUT on the linux headers i have a slightly newer version  Version 2.6.20-15.25 (feisty)
[06:06] <omfgitsdo> right now its just going to be for getting acquaited, etc. when i get deeper into it i will probably rethink the installation
[06:06] <xtknight> Derek_Russo, do you have nvidia or ati?
[06:07] <matkix0s> !vmware
[06:07] <billy> xtknight, if I do alot of sound editing, should I use ext2?
[06:07] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[06:07] <Derek_Russo> LijL: could that be because my drivers aren't fully installed yet?
[06:07] <AlienX> hmmm...nice to see ubuntu has a nifty "upgrade" tool from edgy to feisty that doesn't work.
[06:07] <Goshawk> hi, is there a way to install feisty with alternate in a pc without screen ? i mean with an alternate version, is there a way to redirect output to a tcp port in which i can connect and see messages?
[06:07] <Derek_Russo> xtknight: I have ATI
[06:07] <xtknight> billy, big sound files?
[06:07] <shawn34> I think i have a virus on my second laptop, how can i rewrite the mbr?

[06:07] <fabbos> AlienX, it seems to be breaking most peoples systems.  It is trash.
[06:07] <magnetron_> Derek_Russo: proprietary ATI drivers do not support Compiz, disable them and use the FOSS ones
[06:07] <SRed13> Hello all
[06:07] <xtknight> Derek_Russo, ah ATI doesnt have builtin composite i believe.  you may need AIGLX.  not sure though
[06:07] <Clampdown> matkix0s: sorry... can't help you with VMware :(
[06:07] <Agiofws> why does ubuntu channel suck ?
[06:07] <ircusr> can feisty be installed on a usb pen drive?
[06:07] <Lenn> hello
[06:07] <xtknight> oh do prop ATI drivers support composite like NV now??
[06:07] <billy> xtknight, ok.  some of my files reach over a Gig.
[06:08] <crouton> who's asking questions about vmware?
[06:08] <AlienX> fabbos, yeah, it was from dapper to edgy too.
[06:08] <SRed13> Would anyone be able to offer me some advice on setting up my first server?
[06:08] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_: how do I do that?  I'm very new to linux
[06:08] <Agiofws> anyone want to check if i have set up ubuntu server right to bring up its net interface which it is not doing ?
[06:08] <magnetron_> xtknight: no
[06:08] <xtknight> billy, ah well i'm talking 20 gigs files like virtual machines. but xfs is still better for gigabyte files
[06:08] <Vessquire> ubuntuguide does not have anything on firewall
[06:08] <LjL> eztk: and that should be <IP_ADDRESS>-15.20 - if it isn't, pastebin the entire output of that apt-cache policy command (have you used third party repositories for installing the nvidia drivers?)
[06:08] <AlienX> SRed13, just ask a specific question and someone may be able to help you
[06:08] <Clampdown> crouton: matkix0s
[06:08] <esperegu> how to set persistant rights to /dev/ entries????
[06:08] <crouton> matkix0s: what was the question?
[06:08] <Lenn> is the livecd persistence working in feisty?
[06:08] <xtknight> billy, type "sudo filefrag fileInQuestion" and see how many frags it's in.  my VM was in 1000 fragments on ext3 (AKA 'CRAP')
[06:08] <SRed13> Ok.  I have managed existing servers on a windows 2000 platform before, as part of a computer programing class
[06:08] <fabbos> AlienX, yep.   I tried to install 7.04, but on first boot the system hangup with an error or modprobe "/sbin/modprobe abnormal exit". Has someone the same problem?
[06:08] <Frog29> My mouse cursor is disspaearing - can anyone help me?
[06:08] <magnetron_> Derek_Russo: in proprietary drivers manager, disable flglrx
[06:08] <eztk> LjL: installed (none)  - ill install it thru apt-get then?
[06:08] <billy> xtknight, 1000 frags?  !
[06:09] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_: Ok, I have done that
[06:09] <SRed13> I have a old desktop, I'm not using it, I would like to make a linux based file server and access it from my mostly windows PC's
[06:09] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_: well it was "ATI accelerated graphics driver" but I think it's the same
[06:09] <xtknight> billy, yeah and it froze the whole PC when i tried to start it.  i had no choice but to move it to XFS (which BTW has a defrag tool unlike ext3)
[06:09] <Agiofws> use ubuntu server
[06:09] <eztk> LjL : installing now
[06:09] <SRed13> Heres the thing.  Linux seems confusing to me, kind of backwards from what I'd expect
[06:09] <kalifornia909> would i have to use fiesty fawn server edition to install to r
[06:09] <LjL> eztk: uhm, no wait, give me the output (on pastebin) of  dpkg --get-selections | grep linux . want to understand why they aren't installed
[06:09] <amicrawler> what happedn to auto paste in fisty phon ?
[06:09] <larson9999> errr, i thought i heard someone say, "mostly windows"
[06:09] <SRed13> How would you go about mapping the drives on the windows pc?
[06:09] <magnetron_> Derek_Russo: it is. after restart, check the Desktop Effects preferences
[06:09] <kalifornia909> would i have to use fiesty fawn server edition to install to raid
[06:09] <SRed13> ....sorry, that was me
[06:09] <crouton> SRed13: samba
[06:09] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_: ok, let me try
[06:09] <billy> xtknight, ext3 is still superior to ntfs or fat32, though, right?
[06:09] <xtknight> kalifornia909, feisty desktop alternate can use LVM/RAID, to my knowledge.
[06:09] <Derek_Russo> magnetron_: I'll be back in a minute
[06:10] <xtknight> !alternate
[06:10] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[06:10] <SRed13> So, is Samba a windows app?
[06:10] <crouton> no
[06:10] <Daviey> Anybody got the button on a brother network scanner to work?
[06:10] <SRed13> actually, googke
[06:10] <crouton> !samba
[06:10] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[06:10] <BrMiHi08> my ubuntu 7.04 is only downloading at .89 mb/s
[06:10] <xtknight> billy, ntfs and ext3 are superior to FAT32.  ext3 is in some cases, ntfs has unicode support while AFAIK ext3 does not
[06:10] <SRed13> Ok, dumbass question
[06:10] <SRed13> Sorry, I found the answer in two seconds
[06:10] <crouton> :)
[06:10] <SRed13> ok, I'm not a retard
[06:10] <xtknight> dont degrade yourself just ask
[06:10] <magnetron_> !torrents > BrMiHi08
[06:10] <amicrawler> on my mouse middle botton  does not work anymore  how come  love that  thing
[06:10] <kalifornia909> is anyone else having grub problems
[06:10] <xtknight> i never understood why people swore at themselves
[06:10] <SRed13> I guess, is this actually not too hard?
[06:10] <Nigromante> NTFS write mode not stable
[06:11] <crouton> SRed13: if you're willing to spend some time learning, it's not hard.
[06:11] <amicrawler> auto past acation has gone missing
[06:11] <SRed13> I just want to plug this server pc into the router, and bam, have a new drive
[06:11] <BrMiHi08> magnetron_ - I should be using a torrent, but I am bot
[06:11] <SRed13> Well,I love DOS and linux just seems like DOS * 100, so yeah, I could learn.
[06:11] <Frog29> My mouse cursor is disspaearing - can anyone help me?
[06:11] <crouton> SRed13: it will take slightly more than 'bam' but you'll know more in the end.
[06:11] <Whtiger> how do I run something at shutdown?
[06:11] <billy> xtknight, self-effacement is a mild form of flattering others.
[06:11] <SRed13> With all the terminal commands.
[06:11] <eztk> LjL: ill need to SSH into the box, but it wont let me :|
[06:11] <magnetron_> BrMiHi08: what?
[06:11] <ircusr> frog, have you installed drives correctly?
[06:11] <eztk> LjL: to make it easier to pastebin
[06:11] <SRed13> Okay, I'll dl server edition.  Then I'll see what happens
[06:12] <Clampdown> Frog29: what type of mouse?
[06:12] <Nigromante> Frog29, check it is connected
[06:12] <LjL> eztk: ok, just tell me if there's anything "restricted" listed there
[06:12] <xtknight> billy, eh....i recommend ext3 or reiserFS/reiser4 for root, ext3 for /home, xfs for any files greater than a gig that are often-accessed
[06:12] <crouton> Whoever was asking about VMWare - I assume it was about Feisty: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=338305&page=2
[06:12] <Frog29> ircusr : yes..... it happens only in 7.04 and it seems like only when my screen gets blanked by power management
[06:12] <ircusr> disable power management
[06:12] <xtknight> billy, reiserFS and reiser4 are great at small files, though r4 isn't as stable as it could be.
[06:12] <Frog29> It is the cursor not mouse
[06:12] <yoshx_away> hello
[06:12] <ahave> could someone tell me how to list/remove aptitude installs?
[06:12] <crouton> howdy
[06:12] <fabbos> I can fresh install feisty and nt lose my /home artition, correct?
[06:13] <Frog29> ircursor its a laptop so i sorta need the power managament :)
[06:13] <magnetron_> fabbos: yes
[06:13] <xtknight> ahave, synaptic (gNOME) or Adept (KDE)
[06:13] <billy> xtknight, ok.  I'll have to remember that when stubuntu comes out.
[06:13] <SRed13> One last question, Samba seems insanely confusing.  Is it as bad as it seems?
[06:13] <Nigromante> try removing and reloading mouse kernel module
[06:13] <xtknight> billy, lol stubuntu?  whats that
[06:13] <slackern> fabbos, just choose to not format /home and give it the correct mountpoint when installing
[06:13] <RandomizeR> could there be any external reason why my nvidia 5200 won't work on ubuntu? i've just done my second clean install of feisty today and it still won't work properly
[06:13] <Frog29> nigromante | Clampdown : its my cursor that dissapears not the mouse control
[06:13] <jean> join #ubuntu.fr
[06:13] <d0lph1nK1ng> anyone know how to set environment variables?
[06:13] <twasbrillg> I need some serious help, my feisty update....after an nvidia glx error, my system wont boot
[06:13] <billy> xtknight, ubuntu studio.  http://ubuntustudio.org/
[06:13] <BrMiHi08> does the DVD come with a lot more software?
[06:13] <SRed13> I mean, I'm hoping its just like 'insert IP here' and then its done.
[06:13] <xtknight> d0lph1nK1ng, export ENVVAR=value
[06:13] <crouton> SRed13: no, just use the defaults to start with and play with it
[06:13] <RandomizeR> anyone help plz :-/
[06:13] <d0lph1nK1ng> thanks
[06:13] <ahave> xtknight, thanks
[06:13] <POVaddct> d0lph1nK1ng: export VAR=value
[06:13] <fabbos> slackern, I will just lose the countless apps ive installed?
[06:13] <eztk> LjL: unfortunately theres no audit trail.. its going to say installed because i hit the apt-get install before i saw your thing about not doing it.. sorry :(
[06:13] <magnetron_> SRed13: you can use System > Admin >Shared folder for basic setup of Samba
[06:13] <Nigromante> Frog29, usb mouse?
[06:14] <billy> fabbos, just be sure to tell the installer to mount that partition on /home.  It won't, by default.
[06:14] <xtknight> billy, oh yeah?  well i have ubuntustudio pkgs installed already
[06:14] <SRed13> Wait.  So Samba installs on the LINUX pc.
[06:14] <crouton> yes.
[06:14] <xtknight> billy, on a regular ubuntu.  not sure the difference
[06:14] <slackern> fabbos, yes if you choose to do a format they will be gone
[06:14] <RandomizeR> i tried everything on the guide page, still no luck
[06:14] <SRed13> And makes it look like a NTFS to windows
[06:14] <magnetron_> SRed13: yes
[06:14] <Clampdown> Frog29: thats different... so your cursor vanishes, but you can still blindly use it?
[06:14] <Frog29> Nigromante - touchpad and usb..... i can move the mouse and everyonething i just can't see where it goes.... i also have cnrtl set up so i press it to see the location
[06:14] <SRed13> Ohhhhhhh
[06:14] <crouton> SRed13: it does not look like ntfs to windows
[06:14] <xtknight> billy, i use a lowlatency kernel though (actually selfcompiled with con kolivas interactivity patches).  great for everything
[06:14] <kalifornia909> anyone know why grub wont install to a raid array
[06:14] <Frog29> Clampdown yes
[06:14] <twasbrillg> if I burn a feisty .iso, can I upgrade using that without loosing all of my data?
[06:14] <billy> xtknight, beyond me, my homey.
[06:14] <crouton> SRed13: it looks like a 'windows share' to other windows machines.
[06:14] <ivx> hey does anyone know why when i use ispconfig to create an ftp user that user can log on but he can't upload anything, it says permission denied?
[06:14] <PriceChild> twasbrillg, the alternate cd, not desktop
[06:15] <LjL> eztk: well, if it's installed correctly, i'd just try rebooting
[06:15] <SRed13> Oh, well thats Easy!
[06:15] <SRed13> What about log ons?
[06:15] <eztk> LjL: ok
[06:15] <Nigromante> Frog29, can you see your mouse in console mode? do you have installed gpm?
[06:15] <xtknight> billy, lol well i'd distribute debs of it on the forums.. i love this kernel
[06:15] <davidwinter> hi all. I'd like to run Ubuntu for an arcade machine/pc thing. It's got an ArcadeVGA graphics card (based on ATI chipset...) just wondering what drivers I should us?
[06:15] <davidwinter> use*
[06:15] <yeti> is there a difference between the kernel packages that ubuntu and debian ship or can i use a debian kernel package with ubuntu?
[06:15] <crouton> SRed13: it can act like a NT4.0 PDC, if you're familiar with that.
[06:15] <IceGuest_7> kismet wont "make" anybody got any ideas for a newbie
[06:15] <Nigromante> Frog29, do CTRL+ALT+F1
[06:15] <SRed13> Ok, cool.
[06:15] <xtknight> yeti, you can not use debian kernels with ubuntu if you want your system to work reliably
[06:15] <SRed13> You guys are smart.
[06:15] <PriceChild> yeti, debian is not ubuntu. Do not use debian packages on ubuntu :)
[06:15] <Frog29> Nigromante : ok
[06:15] <xtknight> yeti, debian and ubuntu use different .config files
[06:15] <fabbos> slackern, well idont want to format, but my upgrade failed, so what are my options.
[06:15] <magnetron_> !ati > davidwinter
[06:16] <xtknight> sheesh
[06:16] <crouton> SRed13: That's how adventures are made. :)
[06:16] <xtknight> degrade yourself enouhg?
[06:16] <xtknight> heh
[06:16] <yeti> okay
[06:16] <[1] ircusr> someone tried beryl on ubuntu?
[06:16] <crouton> nope, nobody has. :)
[06:16] <billy> [1] ircusr, here.
[06:16] <[1] ircusr> hehehe
[06:16] <xtknight> !beryl
[06:16] <blubloblu> Anyone got ideas for me? Nvidia restricted driver doesnt work. All I have is vesa, which doesnt do 1600x1200 for some reason
[06:16] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[06:16] <jukka> Anybody know if NVU missing in Feisty 64-bit is a bug or has it been abandoned for some reason?
[06:16] <Frog29> nigromante - not sure if i told you or someone else but it seems to happen after the monitor blanks
[06:16] <[1] ircusr> why not
[06:16] <Derek__> magnetron_: ok, so I disabeled the driver and reset, and now xorg doesn't have drivers to load with
[06:16] <xtknight> !nvu | jukka

It is not in the Ubuntu repos for Feisty Fawn, but ping tonyyarusso to inquire about packages.  See also !html.
[06:16] <kirkunit> i think someone was in here the other week who had tried it
[06:16] <slackern> fabbos, hmm not quite sure to be honest, a clean install but keep /home intact and maybe a backup of all the other stuff if there is something important you need to keep i guess
[06:16] <Derek__> magnetron_: I'm in windows right now because all I get is text when I boot to linux.  I'm not sure how to fix that
[06:17] <Frog29> Nigromante : i'm in the console

[06:17] <yeti> another question: if i want to compile my own kernel, is there any script that deactivates the modules in .config that i don't need (judging by lsmod for example)? i simply don't want to compile everything
[06:17] <xtknight> linux is user friendly.  it's just picky about who its friends are
[06:17] <Nigromante> did your computer enter Suspension or Hibernation ?
[06:17] <slackern> fabbos, i guess what you want is some kind of list of the software installed on the old system so you could get it back as soon as possible
[06:17] <eztk> LjL: looks like X is working fine now. But font smoothing all gone now :( ill have to find a way to get that back
[06:17] <magnetron_> Derek__ sorry, neither do I.
[06:17] <Shaffox> how can i remove an icon ?
[06:17] <PriceChild> !away > crouton-away
[06:17] <yannick> !flash
[06:17] <slackern> fabbos, maybe having a backup of /var/log/dpkg.log so you can check which packages you have installed on the old system
[06:17] <fabbos> slackern, k.  do you know of a good guide for that? Im sick of using guides written by noobs, i cant waste much moremtime getting my computer running.

[06:17] <Derek__> Does anyone know how to configure a driver from the console without using the UI?
[06:17] <Nigromante> (that is, any ACPI power save mode?)
[06:18] <kirkunit> Shaffox: you mean from the panel?
[06:18] <crouton-away> fair enough
[06:18] <Shaffox> kirkunit, yep
[06:18] <xtknight> Derek__,  , define "configure" a driver? a restricted driver?
[06:18] <aleksanteri> how to change the computer name from the console?
[06:18] <Derek__> xtknight: yes
[06:18] <yannick> !pwc
[06:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pwc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:18] <xtknight> aleksanteri, edit /etc/hostname save it then type hostname in console
[06:18] <ChrisF> how do I change file associations so that when I double click a .WMV file it opens in VLC by default?
[06:18] <kirkunit> Shaffox: just right click on it then 'remove from panel'
[06:18] <fabbos> slackern, good idea
[06:18] <aleksanteri> ok
[06:18] <xtknight> Derek__, such as nvidia or ati?
[06:18] <Frog29> Nigromante : it didn't suspend or hibernate...... it just had the screen blanked by powere mangament
[06:18] <PriceChild> !hostname > aleksanteri
[06:18] <Derek__> xtknight: it was working fine, but I disabeledd it and reset under magnetron_'s advice and now it doesn't
[06:18] <Derek__> xtknight: ATI
[06:18] <Shaffox> kirkunit, Can't do that offcourse
[06:18] <billy> ChrisF, I do that by changing the association via the File Browser.
[06:18] <xtknight> Derek__, well grab the restricted drivers pkg then "sudo modprobe DRIVERNAME"
[06:19] <Nigromante> Frog29,  have you installed gpm package ??
[06:19] <xtknight> Derek__, e.g., "sudo modprobe nvidia" and "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" i think for nvidia
[06:19] <Derek__> xtknight: how do I know what the driver name is?
[06:19] <Frog29> Nigromante : maybe.......
[06:19] <yannick> !tomboy
[06:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tomboy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:19] <Frog29> Nigromante : i don't know
[06:19] <xtknight> Derek__, well tell me your device ill tell you the driver :)
[06:19] <d0lph1nK1ng> how do you know what to set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable to (i'm installing a plugin and it needs to know where GAIM is installed)
[06:19] <Shaffox> kirkunit, its 'manual network configuration' aka network-manager icon
[06:19] <rogue780|laptop> I'm trying to get my laptop

[06:20] <ChrisF> billy:  worked great, thank you!

[06:20] <LjL> eztk: font smoothing gone? hm, well, there's the Font settings in Preferences, but i'm not sure they'll work, as i'm not sure why it's gone in the first place
[06:20] <Daniel4711> So is Feisty Fawn upgrade broken or what?

[06:20] <dinoerata> is there anyway to read a data dvd created with SUSE (reiserfs) using my ubuntu (ext3) ???
[06:20] <amicrawler> does any bodys auto paste work?
[06:20] <washbear> Feisty fonts look BAD in gnome-terminal, Thunderbird and Firefox - other apps are fine !?
[06:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about botspam - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:20] <LjL> eztk: but do you have desktop effects active now?
[06:20] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[06:20] <ubotu> Unsure how you should behave on this channel? See !CoC, !Guidelines, !Offtopic, !Language, !Attitude, !Repeat, !Enter, !Paste, !NickSpam, !AskTheBot - and most importantly, use common sense :-)

[06:20] <Frog29> Nigromante : getting
[06:20] <Derek__> xtknight: ok, sorry.  I just forgot because I am on windwows and it doesn't do the nice red outlining thing like in linux, heh
[06:20] <xtknight> dinoerata, yes absoutely
[06:20] <xtknight> Derek__, ohh
[06:20] <Derek__> xtknight: let me reset and try that, I'll let you know how it goes
[06:20] <Daniel4711> Anyone know how to get the update manager to do a Feisty Fawn upgrade from Edgy?
[06:20] <dinoerata> please tell me xtknight
[06:20] <alienseer23> after upgrading to feisty, I cannot get flash to work in firefox...help please??
[06:20] <xtknight> dinoerata, you should be able to flawlessly mount the dvd with no errors.
[06:21] <xtknight> dinoerata, just stick it in?
[06:21] <jrib> alienseer23: is flashplugin-nonfree installed?
[06:21] <xtknight> Derek__, um well hold on
[06:21] <xtknight> Derek__, why not just use vesa then go into restricted drivers manager?
[06:21] <Wymark> Ok, I'm on an XP and while this isn't a very ubuntu-oriented question, I still need to know it to set up ubuntu. How do I find out what driver my computer uses?
[06:21] <magnetron_> Daniel4711: no, but the servers is hammered by eager users
[06:21] <xtknight> blah!
[06:21] <Nigromante> Frog29, do you have configured a special graphics card for X ?
[06:21] <billy> Daniel4711, read this link from ubotu.
[06:21] <Kim^J> X and Firefox got HUGE HUGE HUGE memleaks!
[06:21] <billy> !upgrade > Daniel4711
[06:21] <dinoerata> i did, but it does not even mount , while other dvds with movies songs mount just fine
[06:21] <xtknight> Kim^J, memory leak!=memory usage ;)
[06:21] <alienseer23> jrib: I am not certain, it worked fine before the upgragew
[06:21] <Frog29> Nigromante : sorta - i have the open source nvidia drivers
[06:21] <Luser> X doesn't have memleaks !!
[06:21] <shawn34> Wymark, just run the live-cd, it will auto install the right drivers
[06:22] <fabbos> how do iregister my nick
[06:22] <jrib> alienseer23: apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree   should tell you

[06:22] <immolo> Heya, anyone noticed SiS 65x based cards crash when using glxinfo, glxtest and beryl?
[06:22] <dinoerata> but the dvd i backed up in SUSE before i installed ubuntu, these are the data dvds that will not mount
[06:22] <d0lph1nK1ng> xtknight, thanks the gaim-dev libs did it
[06:22] <Daniel4711> billy- That link contains no working instructions.
[06:22] <Kim^J> xtknight: Where are talking memleaks here... Plx, X cannot use 878 virt, 538 res 49-55% CPU. Constantly
[06:22] <xtknight> if flash 9 in the repos yet??
[06:22] <billy> Daniel4711, one moment.
[06:22] <jrib> xtknight: yes
[06:22] <shawn34> yes
[06:22] <xtknight> Kim^J, why not?
[06:22] <Kim^J> We are
[06:22] <bengl> to whoever was helping me with beryl on feisty, thanks, i figured it out
[06:22] <billy> !upgrade > billy
[06:22] <Wymark> I'm having a problem, and I have already discussed it with someone, and to fix this I need to know what driver I'm using
[06:22] <Nigromante> check you can move your mouse in console once gpm is installed
[06:22] <Kim^J> xtknight: Ehhh...
[06:22] <Daniel4711> Neither does http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading
[06:22] <xtknight> Kim^J, sounds like another problem if it's using CPU?
[06:22] <Luser> hello
[06:22] <Kim^J> On Fedora, My X didn't went over 100MB at anytime.
[06:23] <Luser> ubuntu ubuntu they drink it in the congo ?
[06:23] <alienseer23> jrib: it was not, thasnks
[06:23] <Kim^J> Nor did it peak higher than 10% CPU.
[06:23] <Frog29> wow... the US respotory is really slow
[06:23] <orsoooo> hi!
[06:23] <alienseer23> I suppose I need more coffee
[06:23] <aleksanteri> thx ubotu :)

[06:23] <Daniel4711> That's probably it then.
[06:23] <magnetron_> !ask > amicrawler
[06:23] <shawn34> when im running an upgrade, the terminal output has allot of tar errors, like: 'tar:/ timestamp blabla s in the future... whats that mean?
[06:23] <antidrugue> frog29: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors
[06:24] <xtknight> Kim^J, why is X using so much cpu?
[06:24] <IDE1234> I cant install Fiesty Fawn on VirtualBox ,anyone tried that?
[06:24] <Nigromante> I use UK (in Spain I am)
[06:24] <xtknight> Kim^J, just sitting at the desktop even?
[06:24] <Shaffox> IDE1234, should work
[06:24] <Daniel4711> I guess I'll wait then.
[06:24] <alienseer23> again, thank you for the help and attention
[06:24] <dinoerata> xtknight , i will just pretend i did not hear that, "just stick it in"
[06:24] <warriorforgod> I am trying to boot up Feisty, and when I try and boot I get "Error reading boot CD.  Disk error 80, AX =4200, drive 9F.  I have the same error with 2 different cd's. Any suggestions?
[06:24] <Frog29> antidrugue - i'm just getting programs... not ubuntu :)
[06:24] <xtknight> dinoerata, lol
[06:24] <Kim^J> xtknight: Yep, using friggin WMii...
[06:24] <antidrugue> Frog29: it is the same
[06:24] <xtknight> dinoerata, works for everything
[06:24] <amicrawler> what happend to auto paste
[06:24] <dinoerata> hehe, of course i tried that

[06:24] <ch40s> hey guys
[06:24] <xukun_> how can I install java runtime enviroment?
[06:24] <Nigromante> it is just for checking
[06:24] <antidrugue> Frog29: most of those should work with apt-get/synaptic
[06:24] <xtknight> dinoerata, lol, :P and she (ubuntu) didnt like it?
[06:25] <Kim^J> xukun_: sudo apt-get install java ?
 Might be good to update the upgrade instructions to say that, avoid some confusion. I.e. "If the Upgrade button does not appear, the servers may be overloaded, try again later".
[06:25] <ivx> how do you do a chmod to a dir from terminal? coudl someone give me an example
[06:25] <idefixx> I start linux out of the ntldr (stage1 in a file etc.) after updating to feisty when i start select the linux entry it loads stage 1.5 (reiserfs) then gets to stage 2 and just reboots ???

[06:25] <dinoerata> you bad boy, xt
 It's confusing when you get instructions that are just blatantly wrong. :-)

[06:25] <Nigromante> edit your /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:25] <winya> hy
[06:25] <shawn34> when im running an upgrade, the terminal output has allot of tar errors, like: 'tar:/ timestamp blabla s in the future... whats that mean?
[06:25] <xtknight> dinoerata, tell me dmesg and output of "sudo mount /dev/CDdevice /mnt/Mountpoint"
[06:25] <xukun_> Kim^J, no that is not it
[06:25] <magnetron_> Daniel4711: I am no developer!

[06:26] <xtknight> Derek_Russo, i was gonna tell you to use VESA + Gui restrictds manager
[06:26] <xtknight> Derek_Russo, but whatever works.  anyway for compiz #ubuntu-effects
[06:26] <bengl> Boomer, what layout did you select?
[06:26] <antidrugue> billy: from where do you know me?
[06:26] <magnetron_> winya: see the Ventrilo page at http://appdb.winhq.org
[06:26] <Frog29> Nigromante : so if i now have gpm the mosue should nop longer dissapear?

[06:27] <Kim^J> I don't know if this is a bug or not, it didn't exists in Fedora. But Firefox with 15 opened tabs showing just text and some pictures (No GIFs or .SWF), and X went up to HUGE mem usage.
[06:27] <winya> okay, thx

[06:27] <ch40s> hey guys, I'm trying to install ubuntu, but when I start the boot process, it goes through everything, but, no visuals, (IE no GUI) but ctrl+alt+f2 brings up the terminal, I dunno if this is a gfx card error, I've got 2x 256 MB 7900GS's, and an AMD turion ML-40
[06:28] <ch40s> any body have any ideas?
[06:28] <Frog29> are all repositories updated? or would some be out of date?
[06:28] <shawn34> restart gdm
[06:28] <antidrugue> Frog29: all should work fine
[06:28] <xtknight> Frog29, sudo apt-get update
[06:28] <xtknight> to make sure
[06:28] <ceil420> wot's that mean "fake root environment"? would that let me edit / files?
[06:28] <Frog29> k
[06:28] <fabbos> ch40s, thats how its mean to be, go ctrl-alt-f7
[06:28] <warriorforgod> I am trying to boot up Feisty, and when I try and boot I get "Error reading boot CD.  Disk error 80, AX =4200, drive 9F.  I have the same error with 2 different cd's. Any suggestions?
[06:28] <shawn34> ch40s, try restarting the gdm
[06:28] <Frog29> xtknight - i mean for using ubuntu's best server slecter
[06:28] <antidrugue> Frog29: personally I use ftp://gulus.usherbrooke.ca which is the nearest local mirror (from Montreal, Canada)
[06:28] <BaACkUp> Nubbie:
[06:28] <shawn34> ch40s, then switch to f7
[06:29] <xtknight> ceil420, i'd like to know exactly also but i dont think it lets you edit root files.  one thing it does let you do is compile debian pkgs
[06:29] <BaACkUp> alive?
[06:29] <PetePhilly> I've plugged in a USB gps device here to my 7.04. It uses a usb to serial converter. Lsusb shows that converter. How can I find out if the device is actually working and to what /dev/ it's connected?
[06:29] <xtknight> Frog29, oh
[06:29] <Frog29> antidrugue - so is it a bad idea to use the GUI best server selecter?
[06:29] <xtknight> Frog29, not sure
[06:29] <Frog29> k
[06:29] <rabid> i am missing /etc/apache2/apache2.conf anyway to regenerate the default conf file?
[06:29] <xtknight> Frog29, very likely that they are all RSYNC'd
[06:29] <Frog29> xtknight k
[06:29] <xtknight> Frog29, but rsync update lag can be 10 hours or longer sometimes
[06:29] <shawn34> PetePhilly, it will show in the logs when you plug it in
[06:29] <ceil420> xtknight, i've compiled other .deb's before without it, but apparently envy (for my as-yet-unresolved nvidia 'issue') requires it
[06:29] <Bnirkow> hello, can anyone help me with vnc server??
[06:29] <ch40s> shawn- alright
[06:29] <ceil420> but i don't trust it
[06:29] <antidrugue> Frog29: no, i may be good, it worked for me

[06:29] <ch40s> ill give it a try
[06:29] <ch40s> thanks :D
[06:29] <Whtiger> How do I run a script at shutdown?
[06:29] <antidrugue> Frog29: i just didn't follow its suggestion though

[06:30] <shawn34> when im running an upgrade, the terminal output has allot of tar errors, like: 'tar:/ timestamp blabla s in the future... whats that mean?

[06:31] <shawn34> PetePhilly, its under the System menu
[06:31] <PriceChild> linoleum, /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[06:31] <proog> how do i get my philips spc200nc working on feisty? it seems that programs do detect and configure it, but all i see is a black screen. any ideas?
[06:31] <Boomer> on my new install, i was unable to install GRUB, i installed LILO, but now I can't boot to windows, what to do?
[06:31] <antidrugue> Frog29: something like whois.ws should tell you
[06:32] <shawn34> PetePhilly, check in Admin and Prefs, its in one of those menus
[06:32] <Clampdown> but that was for the update manger itsself :p
[06:32] <xtknight> Frog29, antidrugue type "whois ip" in the terminal
[06:32] <idefixx> I boot linux out of the ntldr (stage1 in a file etc.) after updating to feisty when I select the linux entry it loads stage 1.5 (reiserfs) then gets to stage 2 and just reboots ??? the strangest thing is when I manually load the my menu.lst from a boot disk it works. Any ideas?
[06:32] <antidrugue> xtknight: oh, right
[06:32] <Frog29> xtknight but there are so many in america :)
[06:32] <PetePhilly> shawn34, it doesn't show any /dev/* !
[06:32] <PetePhilly> in that viewer
[06:32] <xtknight> Frog29, eh where is this mirror list?
[06:32] <PetePhilly> any other way to determine where a /dev/ got connected?
[06:32] <shawn34> PetePhilly, there are multiple logs to view in the logviewer you need to find the right one,
[06:32] <xtknight> PetePhilly, what exactly do you mean?
[06:32] <antidrugue> xtknight: wow, i didn't knew that, thanks
[06:33] <xtknight> PetePhilly, try dmesg

[06:34] <sethp> xtknight: It didn't work for me before, though (when I installed Xubuntu). I tried doing root(hd1,0) / makeactive / chainloader +1 and GRUB told me it didn't know how to boot like that
[06:34] <PetePhilly> Xteven, shawn34 dmesg only says "new full speed usb device using pxa27xx-ohci and address 2"
[06:34] <wiglaf> thanks billy
[06:34] <xtknight> Frog29, all the mirrors are chained together and update each other as soon as bandwidth is available
[06:34] <billy> wiglaf, ur welcome. :)
[06:34] <magnetron_> !easysources > wiglaf
[06:34] <Frog29> k
[06:34] <xtknight> sethp, install grub to the mbr not the boot loader
[06:34] <xtknight> sethp, e.g. (hd0)
[06:34] <PetePhilly> Xteven, shawn34 ...after I plugin the usb gps receiver using usb to serial cable
[06:35] <Bnirkow> i`m trying to run vncserver and when i`m connecting i see error "vncviewer: ConnectToTcpAddr: connect: Connection refused; Unable to connect to VNC server"
[06:35] <wiglaf> thanks guys......later!
[06:35] <proog> anyone know about philips spc200nc webcam?
[06:35] <huangdi1688> hello, anyone knows how to get around the "cannot access tty" issue with the LiveCD?
[06:35] <theband1968> thanks wiglaf
[06:35] <xtknight> sethp, you actually dont need any code at all on any specific partition if you have grub on the mbr.  one instance of grub can mount many ext3 linux roots and read the kernel from them
[06:35] <idefixx> zonum: I already reinstalled it to the bootsector of hda1 if that is what you mean.. witch is pretty pointless because stage 1,5 is anyway written after that in a reiserfs.
[06:35] <PetePhilly> proog, sounds like you are looking for the spcxx cam driver. see the wiki...
[06:35] <billy> bye folks!
[06:35] <RandomizeR> guys, i have a nvidia FX 5200 that's giving me hell trying to use with acceleration on either edgy or feisty.. is there any possible fix under the sun or should i just give up and exchange it for an ATI?
[06:36] <linoleum> do you know guys, why nvidia-settings is not shown in the application menu? I have to launch it with the cli
[06:36] <PetePhilly> Xteven, can you get anything from that dmesg output I copied?
[06:36] <rabid> anyone know how to regenerate the default /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[06:36] <proog> PetePhilly, ok ill look there
[06:36] <KevinSJ> How to register nick
[06:36] <RandomizeR> cuz i really like that card, it's got twice the amount of memory as the other ATI card i have lying around
[06:36] <compengi> hi gnomefreak
[06:36] <xtknight> rabid, like restore default?
[06:36] <ceil420> !register | KevinS1
[06:36] <ubotu> KevinS1: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:36] <KevinSJ> i have done it but how to log i
[06:36] <idefixx> zonum: and it gets to stage 2 in any case so it has loaded the 1,5 reiser and is allready on the right partition
[06:36] <ceil420> :o
[06:36] <fabbos> What's the forum to post upgrade errors?
[06:36] <xtknight> rabid, there might be a default or backup file in /etc/apache2.  not sure.  you could consider reinstalling the package but you may risk losing other stuff
[06:36] <compengi> gnomefreak, have you made a new source list for feisty?
[06:36] <KevinSJ> Whats the command for log in with my nick
[06:36] <rabid> xtknight: i just need the one that was there right after my apt-get install of apache2
[06:36] <Shafto> KevinSJ, /msg NickServ IDENTIFY <password>
[06:36] <ceil420> KevinS1,  /ns help identify
[06:37] <ceil420> or that
[06:37] <zonum> idefixx: I had the same issue - I would see "... Stage 2.."  then reboot...
[06:37] <Gunrun> How on earth do I use my second monitor :(
[06:37] <HYPOCRISY> I'll find out
[06:37] <rabid> xtknight: i must not have the right package for that specific conf file as reinstalling apache2 package doesnt do it
[06:37] <sethp> xtknight: ok, I'll try that, thanks
[06:37] <bootbat> mplayer does not work in feisty
[06:37] <xtknight> rabid, eh did you purge the pkg
[06:37] <ceil420> cool, /id <pass> works too
[06:37] <bootbat> any thoughts?
[06:37] <idefixx> zonum: well allright ill install it manually
[06:37] <xtknight> rabid, sudo dpkg --purge apache2pkg && sudo apt-get install apache2pkg
[06:37] <idefixx> zonum: thx for the tip
[06:37] <xtknight> rabid, completely remove, or purge in dpkg speak, removes config files.  remove, or -r does not
[06:37] <rabid> xtknight: didnt have the dpkg command
[06:37] <shawn34> how do i perform a distro upgrade from the command line?
[06:37] <xtknight> rabid, 'completely remove' in synaptic
[06:38] <xtknight> !upgrade | shawn34
[06:38] <ubotu> shawn34: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:38] <bootbat> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:38] <xtknight> update sources.list and dist-upgrade
[06:38] <zonum> idefixx: Yes, I booted from a Live CD and did this work "manually"...  What was key was using "setup (hd1,0)" NOT "setup (hd1)
[06:38] <warriorforgod> I am trying to boot up Feisty, and when I try and boot I get "Error reading boot CD.  Disk error 80, AX =4200, drive 9F.  I have the same error with 2 different cd's. Any suggestions?
[06:38] <morrolan> Hi all - how do I "turn off" my root account after accidentally enabling it?  I prefer just to use sudo and not have a root account per se
[06:38] <bootbat> Did you check the CD for errors?
[06:38] <kalifornia909> anyone sucessfully install ubuntu to a raid array please let me know
[06:38] <ephemeralDream> hello, today after i upgrade to 7.04, everytime i use Ctrl+ALt+BackSpace to restart X, it brings me to terminal not the login screen
[06:38] <Clampdown> bootbat: A few people have complained about this. I reckon totem-xine is good... as you can use the W32Codecs, like mplayer? If thats any help?
[06:38] <KevinS2> hh
[06:39] <kevinS2> n
[06:39] <ceil420> weird :o
[06:39] <zonum> idefixx: One other thing I did prior to fixing it manually, was to mount the drive, then did a "chroot <mount location>", then I ran grub and did what I just told you about root/setup,...
[06:39] <kevinS2> How do i change nick?
[06:39] <ceil420> it always brings me to login screen
[06:39] <Shafto> warriorforgod, You didnt burn by nero did you?
[06:39] <ceil420> kevinS2, /nick <newnick>
[06:39] <rabid> xtknight: trying it out, have to fight with dpkg a bit
[06:39] <zonum> idefixx: Once this was done, I was able to boot w/o issues...
[06:39] <Gunrun> type /nick and then what you want, KevinS2
[06:39] <rabid> i guess i just didnt know how to really do a purge
[06:39] <zonum> idefixx: Anyway, good luck...
[06:39] <idefixx> zonum: of course - tip use supergrub or make a boot disk that is able to walk trough partitions and chainload bootsectors saves a lot of time, not starting the damn cd everytime
[06:39] <bootbat> Clampdown: Thanks..Xine works fine, even VLC works properly without the desktop effects enabled.
[06:40] <xtknight> rabid, well now you know ;)
[06:40] <kevinS2> well iam registered with kevinS1
[06:40] <rabid> exactly
[06:40] <zonum> idefixx: Ok, thanks for that tip...
[06:40] <Clampdown> :)
[06:40] <fabbos> shawn34, Don't do a dist upgrade it will probably break.
[06:40] <ceil420> kevinS2, if you're KevinS1 and trying to use that nick, you'll have to kill that connection or wait until it pings out
[06:40] <kevinS2> but i cant change to it
[06:40] <ceil420> kevinS2, "KevinS1" is still connected
[06:40] <shawn34> fabbos, whys that?
[06:40] <xtknight> ceil420, KevinS2 just GHOST kevins1
[06:40] <kevinS2> How do i kill it?
[06:40] <bootbat> Fiesty Rocks for me
[06:40] <linoleum> does someone here has an nvidia 8800 and run compiz/beryl ? I can do it but it s slow and crappy
[06:40] <xtknight> kevinS2, /msg nickserv help ghost
[06:41] <bootbat> One of the best distros....Guessing why people still would buy Windows
[06:41] <ceil420> is "Ex-Chat" the default quit message in xchat-gnome or something?
[06:41] <ceil420> i see it a lot :o
[06:41] <Shafto> ceil420, I think so yeah
[06:42] <ceil420> :p
[06:42] <fabbos> shawn34, many people have had their system break, thats all
[06:42] <KevinS2> well he must lag out some time
[06:42] <chemaja1> ceil420, my default is "Leaving" for XChat 2.6.6 on FC6
[06:42] <skrea> hi, I've just installed feisty and whenever I want to apt-get something it just grabs it from the install cd. Is there a way of forcing it to use the online sources?
[06:42] <ceil420> KevinS2, he just did
[06:42] <bootbat> Fabbos, I recomend the official method
[06:42] <morrolan> Hi all - how do I "turn off" my root account after accidentally enabling it?  I prefer just to use sudo and not have a root account per se
[06:42] <shawn34> fabbos, well im not talking about feisty, old laptop still on dapper
[06:42] <ceil420> chemaja1, my default in xchat 2.8 is "Leaving", too
[06:42] <chemaja1> ceil420, what version of XChat does Help -> About say for you?
[06:43] <magnetron_> !offtopic
[06:43] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:43] <bootbat> I did it this morning and it worked fine
[06:43] <ceil420> chemaja1, but xchat-gnome isn't xchat
[06:43] <ScottSatkin> skrea, what is the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[06:43] <rodness> hi all, i have what is hopefully a simple question...  new to ubuntu, just installed 7.04, lots of previous experience with suse and rh....  my question:  is there a control panel for apps?  e.g. suse had graphical configurations for postfix, bind, etc...  if it's here i can't find it.
[06:43] <chemaja1> no i'm not using that
[06:43] <chemaja1> xchat-gnome is balls
[06:43] <ceil420> lol
[06:43] <ceil420> i've never seen it
[06:43] <ceil420> i've no interest in it
[06:43] <ceil420> (partially because i'm running Xfce)
[06:43] <kevinS1> m
[06:44] <ceil420> :p
[06:44] <chemaja1> ceil420, it was a fork of xchat which reportedly died in the arse
[06:44] <magnetron_> !offtopic | ceil420 chemajal
[06:44] <ubotu> ceil420 chemajal: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:44] <kevinS1> I forgot my password, what can i do?
[06:44] <ceil420> uh huh :x
[06:44] <chemaja1> magnetron_, how is a package of Ubuntu offtopic?
[06:44] <Hoxzer> Ok, Guys ... how can I get my system back into business if game crashes. I have tried changing to virtual console. ctrl+alt+backspace
[06:44] <Horscht> !wifi
[06:44] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:44] <ceil420> kevinS1, that was fast :x did you set an email address?
[06:44] <kevinS1> yes ofcourse
[06:45] <magnetron_> chemajal: it is not support related
[06:45] <lmosher> I -just- updated to 7.04 from 6.10 and I was checking out the new chess game... when I go to 3D it says I need to install some python bindings, but doesn't say which packages... Which packages do I need? My 3D setup is OK, I have beryl running and such.

[06:45] <RobbieCrash> After a fresh install of Feisty, I get the following message every five or so minutes: [37894,012000]  bcm43xx: Error: Miccrocode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed.
[06:45] <chemaja1> magnetron_, actually it spawned from an application-default-config support query
[06:45] <burnin> is there an explenation somewhere of the ubuntu mirror directory structure?
[06:45] <skrea> ScottSatkin: which bits in particular?
[06:45] <kevinS1> Yes i set an email adress
[06:45] <ScottSatkin> SKREA: what is the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"?
[06:45] <ceil420> kevinS1, then your pass is probably recoverable, but i don't know the process. you may try asking in #freenode
[06:45] <magnetron_> chemajal: yes, and got offtopic
[06:45] <joshjosh> RobbieCrash, add blacklist bcm43xx to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[06:45] <chemaja1> magnetron_, ok ok.
[06:46] <kevinS1> !register > kevinS1
[06:46] <morrolan> can someone please help me with themes?
[06:46] <steharg79_> is there a way to resize avant window navigator or to autohide it?

[06:47] <RobbieCrash> now for the second issue, nautilus won't load
[06:47] <ForzaPalermo> how can i fix this?
[06:47] <joshjosh> RobbieCrash, did that do the trick?
[06:47] <Frog29> if a program is for KDE can it still be used in a gnome enviroment?
[06:47] <Frog29> !kde
[06:47] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE veresion is 3.5.6 for Edgy and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information.
[06:47] <ScottSatkin> SKREA: you can do gksudo gedit "/etc/apt/sources.list" to edit the file
[06:48] <coopster> i'm having a problem with getting X to work at all.  i just did an upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10 on this server that i am setting up, and now when I try to start X, xauth says creating new auth file, hangs for a while says 'giving up.', then xinit says connection refused and server error
[06:48] <joshjosh> Frog29, yes. just apt-get install it and it will download the KDE lib files you need
[06:48] <rodness> anyone?  is there an app configuration (postfix, bind, etc) utility in ubuntu somewhere that i don't know about?   (really hoping to avoid hand editing config files... i think my mac spoiled me.)
[06:48] <ceil420> Frog29, i'm 80% sure you can install the KDE libraries in GNOME and use KDE apps, yeah
[06:48] <Frog29> joshhoh ok
[06:48] <kevinS1> Does someone know how to recover a password
[06:48] <kevinS1> ?
[06:48] <jonah> does anyone know why gdesklets isn't working for amd64 feisty at moment?
[06:48] <kevinS1> from freenode
[06:48] <ceil420> or prove once again how useful apt-get install is :p
[06:48] <fabbos> whats the best forum to post uprade errors in
[06:48] <antidrugue> Frog29: i use many KDE programs in Gnome or Xfce, namely k3b, amarok, etc.

[06:48] <coopster> i have googled for about an hour, i'm not new at linux or ubuntu, but i am just stumped.  if someone could give me a hand i would be incredibly greatful.
[06:48] <antidrugue> Frog29: no problem there
[06:49] <ScottSatkin> kevinS1: you can login as root and then run passwd

[06:50] <fabbos> Dimicus, probably permissions

[06:51] <sky_shark> i'm having an issue using terminal right now and I was wondering if someone could help me
[06:51] <RobbieCrash> Dimicus what fs is the usb drive?
[06:51] <Clampdown> Dimicus: create a folder, and give your self permission to it... they copy to that... for some reason a while ago, i had a similar issue, and that worked
[06:51] <steharg79_> coopster: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[06:51] <ScottSatkin> sky shark, what is your question?
[06:51] <sky_shark> i'm attempting to install java on feisty and
[06:51] <sky_shark> it says to su
[06:51] <modex2007> yeah, I use if config from terminal all the time, I just fancied a nice little window gui
[06:51] <sky_shark> then password
[06:51] <goose> so umm how does this desktop effects bit work?
[06:51] <Dimicus> Thats wierd.. i cand of dont want to log in a root for those small things :)
[06:51] <goose> i just lost all my window decorations when i enabled it

[06:51] <morrolan> Hi, I've tried to install an icon theme by dragging it into the theme selector window and it has crashed GNOME nbecuase it doesn't known what theme to use! How can I edit the gconf editor from the CLI?
[06:51] <sky_shark> it never lets me type anything in on that line
[06:52] <fabbos> warriorforgod, well its possible that the image you dowloaded has an error, but its soounds like its either the CD or the drive.
[06:52] <ScottSatkin> the password is not printed as you type it, just press enter after typing it, and it should work
[06:52] <vafada> sky_shark, try sudo and just type in, yo wont see the input
[06:52] <sky_shark> so i can't enter my password so i can't continue with the java install even though I am the root user for Ubuntu
[06:52] <kevinS1> Does someone know how to recover a password from a registred nick on IRC, i have set an email
[06:52] <sky_shark> okay
[06:52] <fabbos> whats the best forum to post uprade errors in?
[06:52] <vafada> sky_shark, that's for security, i guess
[06:52] <warriorforgod> fabbos well, I will try a different drive.  I would lean towards download though i guess.
[06:52] <coopster> steharg79_, any section in particular, or are you suggesting I should read the whole thing?

[06:53] <Clampdown> :p
[06:53] <compengi> what do you prefer to update to feisty or to get a clean install?
[06:53] <ceil420> rttm, there's a #beryl where they may know more
[06:53] <Clampdown> apokk: theres 1370 is us who will try to help you :p
[06:53] <ScottSatkin> rttm: do you have the "desktop cube" turned on?
[06:53] <rodness> guys, hate to beg but would really appreciate an answer... is there a graphical configuration for network services (postfix, bind, ssh, dovecot) that i maybe haven't installed or don't know about?  something equivalent to the suse control panel maybe?
[06:53] <fabbos> warriorforgod, yeah, you could do a media check to make certain i suppose..but the error you posted looks like cd/drive ;)
[06:53] <steharg79_> coopster - depends what you need help with - almost everything is covered there though
[06:53] <lmosher> I have 3D working (direct rendering, etc) in 7.04, but the glchess program won't let me do 3D view. What packages do I need to install? Thanks.

[06:54] <fabbos> rodness, for some reason ubuntu didnt include it, change to RH or suse
[06:54] <fabbos> compengi, yes
[06:54] <Shafto> compengi, Just watch the amount of people in here who it screwed up for

[06:55] <rodness> fabbos:  when you say didn't include it, do you mean there's a package i can install, or does it just simply not exist?
[06:55] <d0lph1nK1ng> anyone familiar with ATI TV Wonder Elite drivers?
[06:55] <apokk> auridius but how?
[06:56] <vafada> dna_, mine worked out of the box. I have ATI

[06:56] <coopster> shane634, when i try to start X, i get a message from xauth that it is creating a new authority file, then the machine hangs for a good 45 seconds, xauth reports 'giving up'  then xinit gives 'connection refused'
[06:56] <cox377> bluefox83: gnome for example?
[06:56] <rodness> fabbos:  thanks.  guess i hand edit config...  oh well.
[06:57] <fabbos> rodness, yeah it sucks :(
[06:57] <bluefox83> goose, there has been no permanent fix for that issue yet
[06:57] <antidrugue> coopster: did you delete the file ~/.Xauthority ?
[06:57] <bluefox83> cox377, yep
[06:57] <hele> What should do? add_to_rules: do not reference parent sysfs directories directly,  /etc/udev/rules.d/19-local.rules says: KERNEL=="event[0-9] *", SYSFS{../name}=="Logitech USB Receiver", NAME="input/event9"
[06:57] <sky_shark> i do not understand how your supposed to install java
[06:57] <Soliko> what is  synaptoc
[06:57] <vox754> !synaptic
[06:57] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto

[06:57] <goose> bluefox83: what's the temporary fix?
[06:57] <vox754> !java
[06:57] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[06:57] <soothsay> Is /etc/network/interfaces the correct place to set a static config?
[06:58] <ScottSatkin> yes
[06:58] <morrolan> exit
[06:58] <coopster> antidrugue, yes.  xauth will try to create a .serverauth file, then come back with 'error locking authority file .Xauthority'

[06:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dhclient - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:58] <cox377> bluefox83: once installed is the command to start it 'start x'?

[07:11] <soundray> darwin: you'd have to run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' to have dvorak in gdm, too.
[07:11] <ScottSatkin> bamzin: chmod a+rwx <folder name>
[07:11] <bluefox83> cox377, huh? process?
[07:12] <ceil420> yeah that

[07:14] <bluefox83> Hasrat_USA, use #kubuntu for kubuntu help please
[07:14] <seth> grub
[07:14] <askar> "Try running with LIBGL_THROTTLE_REFRESH and LIBL_SYNC_REFRESH unset."
[07:14] <askar> How do I do that?
[07:14] <seth> !grub
[07:14] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto

[07:15] <ompaul> to1, in gnome menu - System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[07:15] <cox377> bluefox83: could not open default font 'fixed' is the msg i get
[07:15] <Frog29> i like the new ubuntu... better wireless and easy nvidia driver installs!
[07:15] <bluefox83> people are asking some crazy questions in here today :o
[07:15] <colbert> hehe
[07:15] <shane634> new releases do that lol
[07:16] <Kix> :p
[07:16] <Frog29> :)
[07:16] <antidrugue> Frog29: yes, a very solid release indeed, pretty stable too
[07:16] <bluefox83> cox377, ah..ok lets just make this super easy... sudo apt-get install ubuntu desktop
[07:16] <z> hey all, for some reason metacity doesnt start with my session now, i always have to type metacity in the terminal to bring up everything
[07:16] <Stig> Yeah, I was really impressed that Feisty recognised my wireless card straight away...
[07:16] <soundray> kkerwin: you should install those packages with sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite
[07:16] <Frog29> let me add my crazy question - somehow at some point i think i told ubuntu not to isntall certain updates....... now i can't figure out how to install those up[dates
[07:16] <bluefox83> cox377, actually tht might be ubuntu-desktop
[07:16] <vox754> Stig, which one?
[07:16] <kkerwin> soundray: Thank you. Lemme give that a try.
[07:17] <soundray> kkerwin: hold on...
[07:17] <Frog29> antidrugue - i think it still need better pwoer managment for laptops..... i beleive i get better perfermanec of battery life in windows
[07:17] <kkerwin> soundray: K
[07:17] <Stig> I think it's a broadcom something... came with my Dell 9400. It worked as soon as I installed Feisty.
[07:17] <antidrugue> Frog29: if you go in update manager, you can install any update available
[07:17] <fadumpt> shane634: you wanted me to msg you?
[07:17] <cox377> bluefox83: yeh i'm gonna hgave a play about.. cheers anyway
[07:17] <soundray> kkerwin: only the kdelibs one. The powernowd thing is different.
[07:17] <shane634> fadumpt, yeah i have some car knowledge
[07:17] <to1> ah....   ompaul  thx man...  don#t know why i didn#t see that one :)
[07:17] <antidrugue> Frog29: i have better power management performance in Debian than in Ubuntu
[07:17] <kkerwin> Stig: Sounds like an issue for ndiswrapper
[07:17] <fadumpt> okay, I sent you a pm
[07:17] <kkerwin> !ndiswrapper | Stig
[07:17] <ubotu> Stig: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:18] <kkerwin> soundray: K
[07:18] <Frog29> antidruge - i isntalled all available updates from the ubdate menu or whatever... but i saw one saying something about desktop backgrounds originalyl ythen when u ran it the second time it didn't have that bacground thing
[07:18] <soundray> kkerwin: cd to /var/cache/apt/archives and use the full name of the deb file.
[07:18] <bluefox83> cox377, installing the ubuntu-desktop package will install gnome and xorg, and if i'm not mistaken, will also configure it for you...that should make life easier
[07:18] <antidrugue> Frog29: a few hints there: http://technowizah.com/2007/01/debian-how-to-power-management.html
[07:18] <Frog29> antidrugue - thanks
[07:18] <cox377> bluefox83: cheers mate
[07:18] <z> hey all, for some reason metacity doesnt start with my session now, i always have to type metacity in the terminal to bring up everything
[07:18] <antidrugue> Frog29: plus make sure you don't have too much uneeded services running
[07:18] <vox754> kkerwin, he said the card works, hence no need for ndiswrapper
[07:18] <shane634> fadumpt, i didn't get it.. you have another messenger?
[07:18] <TokenBad> ok I am trying to install the nvidia drivers for the new ubuntu....is there a how to for this yet?
[07:18] <Stig> lol, I was gonna say
[07:18] <Stig> think he misread
[07:19] <ch40s> !nvidia
[07:19] <kkerwin> vox754, and Stig: Ya. Misread
[07:19] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:19] <auridius> Maybe a usefull tip ; a quick search on isohunt.com "ubuntu bible" gives a torrent link to the 2007 ubuntu bible...
[07:19] <bluefox83> cox377, i hope it works for you
[07:19] <Frog29> antidrugue - is there any way to tell esily what services i don't needd? (i'm still new to ubuntu :) )
[07:19] <bluefox83> wtf is the ubuntu bible?
[07:20] <wastrel> hi
[07:20] <antidrugue> Frog29: i think there is a service management utility in System-> Administration
[07:20] <fadumpt> shane634: yeah, fadumpt on aim
[07:20] <BlueEagle> askar: beryl?
[07:20] <ch40s> I can't get the live cd to boot to a GUI, i tried reconfiguring the xserver, but no luck, still won't give me the GUI, any ideas?
[07:20] <z> why isnt metacitry starting with my session anymore since i updated to fiesty
[07:20] <BlueEagle> !beryl
[07:20] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:20] <auridius> bluefox83: It's a ebook, with everything covered in it, from desktop use to server
[07:20] <z> i can only see the windows and stuff after typing metacity in the console
[07:20] <antidrugue> Frog29: be prudent though
[07:20] <cotton> Hey, How can I make gaim load up channels automatically on startup?
[07:20] <shane634> fadumpt, i don't have aim.. yahoo or msn
[07:20] <PodXT> hi...did a feisty dist-upgrade, all seems well except for sshd not starting...the init script for ssh says OK, links exist for the runlevel I'm at, but sshd isn't running, how can this be debugged?
[07:20] <ubuntuEdgy> can any one help i was trying to install fglrx, now i all i get is this http://pastebin.ca/451571
[07:20] <bluefox83> auridius, ew, i hate those..no one ever writes them so people can actually use them

[07:21] <cotton> Thanks ScottSatkin
[07:21] <shane634> fadumpt, ok
[07:21] <bluefox83> so does anyone know when gaim is going to release pidgin 2.0.0?
[07:21] <askar> BlueEagle: nope..comes when Im starting a 3dgame
[07:21] <auridius> bluefox83: I just wanted to help, whatever your opignion is.
[07:21] <z> Anyone
[07:21] <qebab> I feel really silly right now, so please go easy but: http://img399.imageshack.us/img399/4521/skjermdumppl0.png this seems to have locked there. What do I do to progress?
[07:21] <BlueEagle> askar: I see. Which windowmanager, gfx card, driver et al. are you running?
[07:21] <compengi> bluefox83, ask in #pidgin
[07:21] <z> why does metacity start only when i type "metacity" in the terminal
[07:21] <bluefox83> auridius, well, it's the thought that counts i guess :)
[07:22] <TokenBad> do I follow those instructions for edgy or what?
[07:22] <fadumpt> actually I can't remember my yahoo, shane
[07:22] <askar>  BlueEagle:  im running metacity at the moment.. with an intelcard with i810 driver
[07:22] <qebab> I've tried the obvious things like 'y'+return, return, 'Ok'+return and so on
[07:22] <sky_shark> well i ran the whole sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre but firefox still acts like java isn't installed
[07:22] <ScottSatkin> qebab try typing <tab> <enter>
[07:22] <Frog29> antidrugue - k
[07:22] <shane634> fadumpt, ok i added ya

[07:22] <z> can any one help, please
[07:23] <fadumpt> actually I maybe online now :-/ I almost never use yahoo
[07:23] <vox754> qebab, I thought you were looking for a lawyer!
[07:23] <BlueEagle> askar: Yeah, according to google there appears to be a problem with intel cards and 2.6.odd kernels. Unfortunately I haven't got such a card so I can't be of much help to you. :(
[07:23] <fadumpt> try to msg me...
[07:23] <sky_shark> and then during the install i ogta warning /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 does not exist or is not a directory
[07:23] <magnetron_> qebab: select the ok button with arrow keys, then hit space
[07:23] <ch40s> I am having problems with x, i reconfigured it, and restarted the GDM (a couple times) and still no graphic when i ctrl+alt+f7
[07:23] <TokenBad> on the wiki page for installing the nvidia drivers should I follow for edgy or what...since I have the new ubuntu released just the other day
[07:23] <sky_shark> does that mean java wasn't installed properly?
[07:23] <askar> BlueEagle: :S ok. think it will be solved?
[07:23] <adaptr> hi all, I connect a usb camera and nothing happens; next I modprobe usbvision and it loads all the dependencies, but still no video device... what's the next step ?
[07:23] <Shafto> You guys should be proud, the CEO of Dell has Feisty on his laptop :D
[07:23] <qebab> vox754: the only lawyer I'd ever need is one to convince people that I'm smart enough to be permitted to live :)
[07:23] <shane634> fadumpt, i just sent a message
[07:23] <vox754> TokenBad, take a guess!
[07:24] <z> HOW come metacity doesnt load up anymore
[07:24] <z> whats wrong
[07:24] <fadumpt> not sure I got it
[07:24] <EmxBA> who might I contact related to mirror list at kubuntu.org? I've sent mail to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>one day ago and got no reply.
[07:24] <snfu> ct
[07:24] <seth> how do I force grub to install to a specific hard drive (without physically unplugging my primary drive)
[07:24] <shane634> fadumpt, it is not showing you online
[07:24] <TokenBad> vox754, taking a guess can be bad...since it can mess stuff up...I was told to go to that page...but since its for edgy...and not for the new one...
[07:24] <z> metacity is enabled in the sessions settings but it never shows up when i start ubuntu, i always have to enable it through console
[07:24] <auridius> TokenBad: Follow the instructions on the nvidia site. Make sure to install the sources on your box.
[07:24] <z> metacity is enabled in the sessions settings but it never shows up when i start ubuntu, i always have to enable it through console
[07:24] <z> metacity is enabled in the sessions settings but it never shows up when i start ubuntu, i always have to enable it through console
[07:24] <fadumpt> okay, we can just join a dead room
[07:24] <seth> I want two copies of grub (one on each hard drive)

[07:25] <shane634> fadumpt, ok see ya in a sec
[07:25] <BlueEagle> askar: I really don't know. I've never used intels graphics chips so I've got no experience with the graphics drivers. If they are supported by Intel try looking at their home page. There's even an odd chance that you'll be able to find info in some kernel forums.

[07:26] <BlueEagle> seth: You specify where grub is installed with setup(hdX) where X represents the hdd onto which it shall be installed.

[07:27] <Stig> magnetron_, thank you very much!
[07:27] <BlueEagle> kevins3: Feisty was released three days ago. The servers are probably overwhemled by people downloading. There ought to be torrents up by now and you will probably get better speeds off them. To play windows files with vlc you'll need the codecs for the files.
