[20:12] <nikrud> matti_: erg, typo: dpkg -l '*pidgin*' | grep ^i  is correct
[20:12] <Shadow_mil> Everyone, if you want a 'private mode' in Firefox3 (A mode where your history, cache, and saved data is disabled while active).   Go to: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248970   and vote!
[20:12] <Lamego> ops, was matti_
[20:12] <cdeszaq> Does anyone have experience setting up multiple Bugzillas on the same server?
[20:12] <souper> it's sda reference changed
[20:13] <nikrud> everyone should have unique 3 char prefixes to nicks
[20:13] <danand> souper - is the partition the same size or bigger than the ammount of ram you have?
[20:13] <gregory> czk: better ask in bugzilla channel ;-)
[20:13] <souper> its double the ram i have
[20:13] <gregory> czk: sorry
[20:13] <matti_> Package ii is not installed, so not removed
[20:13] <matti_> E: Couldn't find package 1:2.4.0-1~getdeb1
[20:13] <cdeszaq> np, just curious
[20:13] <Tolyan> It appears in grub and it booted fine before the resize.  Now when i choose it the comp reboots
[20:13] <gregory> cdeszaq: : better ask in bugzilla channel ;-)
[20:13] <matti_> i got that when i put that in
[20:13] <cdeszaq> gregory: do you happen to know the chan name?
[20:14] <Lamego> matti_, sudo apt-get remove "pidgin*"
[20:14] <gregory> cdeszaq: sorry, no, google..
[20:14] <Lamego> or just go to synaptic
[20:14] <Lamego> and remove the pidgin packages
[20:14] <yowshi> oh nikrud i dont know if you got the final update from my problem last night but all efforts failed
[20:14] <nikrud> yowshi: not suprising. sudo is a fragile beast sometimes
[20:14] <zschallz_> Tolyan: hmm... probably not much you can do. should probably back things up and reinstall
[20:15] <matti_> nothing happened...
[20:15] <yowshi> nikrud i am currently sifting through files to decide what to kea
[20:15] <yowshi> keep*
[20:15] <nikrud> matti_: something happened, it says something when you do that
[20:15] <bloatedyak> people actually use this channel?
[20:16] <gnuskool> yah
[20:16] <jussio1> bloatedyak: yeah, about 1300 currently
[20:16] <matti_> rite just redid it and it says press y or n
[20:16] <bloatedyak> woa
[20:16] <matti_> what shud i do//
[20:16] <matti_> ?
[20:16] <nikrud> matti_: say yes
[20:16] <matti_> what now?
[20:17] <Tolyan> zchallz: ... But ubuntu can mount the partition and it works just fine
[20:17] <nikrud> matti_: then it will say something about removing  some packages, should have removed pidgin-data (and pidgin)
[20:17] <matti_> so now i should be able to install pidgin?
[20:17] <gnuskool> irc is the best support tere is 4 ppl who like to help themselves, leave the hand-holding to 'you know who'
[20:17] <nikrud> matti_: it's a good bet
[20:17] <tvnz> matti_,  now try sudo apt-get install pidgin
[20:18] <matti_> it says yes or no again
[20:18] <matti_> do yes?
[20:18] <tvnz> yes
[20:18] <Lamego> erm, what part of yes or no you do not understand ?
[20:18] <nikrud> matti_: read what it says, so you have a better understanding, then say yes :)
[20:18] <matti_> lol okay im sorry, im new at ubuntu, ive had it for a day
[20:19] <nikrud> matti_: no problem, you learn by doing (and paying attention to what you are doing :) Beginners are always welcom
[20:19] <matti_> aha, i think its working :D
[20:19] <matti_> thanks man, uve bee a massive help
[20:19] <matti_> *been
[20:19] <gnuskool> is performance hard hit by running kde n gnome simultaneously?
[20:20] <Cann0n> gnuskool, running both at the same time?
[20:20] <marco__> #ubuntu-it
[20:20] <rami> Hello, I need help in running a native Visual Basic program on Linux using wine....
[20:20] <nikrud> gnuskool: if you have enough memory, running kde apps in gnome (and visa versa) works fine, no real slowdonw
[20:20] <matti_> aw man
[20:20] <gnuskool> installing both, in different sessions
[20:20] <marco__> sorry
[20:20] <marco__> :p
[20:20] <matti_> its still not working!
[20:20] <marco__> i forgot /j
[20:20] <matti_> the program wont boot
[20:21] <tvnz> matti_,  write pidgin in console , and paste answer
[20:21] <nikrud> gnuskool: again, memory is gonna matter much more than anything else
[20:21] <Lamego> matti_, sudo apt-get remove "libpurple*"
[20:21] <Cann0n> gnuskool, you can only run one at a time. im not sure about ubuntu, but slackware you can install how ever many you want.
[20:22] <nikrud> Cann0n: incorrect. You can run them both, in separate X sessions
[20:22] <Lamego> he can run both, using 2 X sessions
[20:22] <oddchild> hello all, my laptop does not notice when I plug things in the USB unless I do it before i turn it on. I recently bought a USB hard drive, it works for 30 minutes then shuts off (while doing things or not) then I cannot plug it back in... Any ideas?
[20:22] <matti_> just did what lamego said and its taking pidin off
[20:22] <souper> when ubuntu hibernates it stores the ram to swap correct?
[20:22] <Lamego> matti_, yes, you will need to reinstall it, now with th proper libpurple*
[20:22] <Cann0n> nikrud, thank you for the correction. i misunderstood. i am aware of multi x-session. :P
[20:22] <nikrud> matti_: that's ok, Lamego remembered that pidgin uses a silly name for the libs
[20:23] <matti_> so now i can reinstall and it should work?
[20:23] <Lamego> yes
[20:23] <bjames> hi all, I'm trying to build cisco VPN client, it asks me to specify "Directory containing linux kernel source code [/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/build]" and I press enter (expecting that to be ok), but building fails
[20:23] <gnuskool> nikrud: dont have much memory, might have to use flux
[20:24] <EdwardXp3> whats' the command to reconfigure the kernel to install more options?
[20:24] <danand> souper - yes, but some suspends and hibernates are controlled by the systems bios
[20:24] <bjames> /home/bjames/Desktop/vpn/vpnclient/linuxcniapi.c:12:26: error: linux/config.h: No such file or directory
[20:24] <EdwardXp3> " auto config something... "
[20:24] <Centaur5> Every time I try to run oem-config-prepare and reboot I start typing in the new user information but it automatically continues loading to the login screen and doesn't create the user. What can be done?
[20:24] <Lamego> bjames, did you install the linux headers package ?
[20:24] <Cann0n> gnuskool, how much memory do you have?
[20:24] <bjames> Lamego: I will check
[20:25] <matti_> i just tried to intall using add or remove programs and it still says omething i comflicting with it :S
[20:25] <Lamego> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[20:25] <gnuskool> cannon: 128MB
[20:25] <tvnz> matti_, show error
[20:25] <psmodo> ls
[20:25] <EdwardXp3> Lamego:  i just want to try and configure the existing
[20:25] <matti_> says this
[20:25] <matti_> his application conflicts with other installed software. To install 'pidgin' the conflicting software must be removed first.
[20:25] <matti_> Switch to the 'synaptic' package manager to resolve this conflict.
[20:25] <Cann0n> i wouldn't attempt to run multi x-sessions on different wm's
[20:26] <Lamego> matti_, uff, what about reading the specific message that you get, is terrible that you don't care to read the error messages in detail
[20:26] <bjames> Lamego: what is the name in synaptec?
[20:26] <leodamasceno_> Alguém aqui mexe com Drag and Drop em java?
[20:26] <bjames> synaptic*
[20:26] <souper> well i found something about resume=/dev/hdaX as a kernel parameter, so if that's how it resumes from a hibernate I'm thinking that because the dev reference for my swap changed that it's trying to resume from a partition that's not my swap
[20:26] <Lamego> bjames, on the terminal:  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[20:26] <Stirner> salut
[20:26] <bjames> synaptic tells me I have them
[20:26] <souper> which would leave the image on swap and causing the partition to appear corrupt
[20:26] <bjames> linux-headers-2.6.22-14
[20:26] <oddchild> hello all, my laptop does not notice when I plug things in the USB unless I do it before i turn it on. I recently bought a USB hard drive, it works for 30 minutes then shuts off (while doing things or not) then I cannot plug it back in... Any ideas?
[20:27] <Lamego> ok, build-essential is also installed ?
[20:27] <matti_> is there anyway i can restore ubuntu from when i installed it?
[20:27] <Stirner> suis en train d'installer ubuntu7.10 sur une carte mère P31-NEo de chez MSi et pas moyen de faire fonctionner l'usb
[20:27] <souper> so if i changed the grub config and fixed that boot param shouldn't that fix the problem?
[20:28] <corinne_> Hey, everyone.  I was wondering, is there a way to play .rm files in ubuntu?  vlc and mplayer aren't agreeing.
[20:28] <gregory> Stirner: /join ubuntu-fr :-)
[20:28] <Stirner> mici
[20:28] <oddchild> corinne_,  you can get realplayer for linux :D
[20:28] <corinne_> Oh man.  I guess I have to.  *sigh*
[20:29] <oddchild> corinne_,  there is also helixplayer
[20:29] <bullgard4> [GNOME] How to determine the filename of the dialog that appears when I click System > Quit... ?
[20:29] <corinne_> helixplayer works?
[20:29] <EdwardXp3> can someone teach me how to upgrade the kernel to the newst one?
[20:29] <oddchild> corinne_,  yeah it should ;)
[20:29] <matti_> is there anyway i can restore my ubuntu to when i first got it?
[20:29] <bullgard4> EdwardXp3: Join the channel #ubuntu+1 and ask there.
[20:30] <oddchild> math_b,  like how it was when you first installed?
[20:30] <c3f59d4> hey @all,   someone in for some touchscreen questions?
[20:30] <oddchild> math_b, with just default programs etc?
[20:30] <gregory> corinne_: i tried to use helixplayer, no luck
[20:30] <brambi1> i need help
[20:30] <bjames> Lamego: any ideas?
[20:30] <brambi1> how do i set my identd in xchat?
[20:30] <gregory> corinne_: standard players dont offer to install the plugins for you?
[20:30] <matti_> are thee any other decent msn programs
[20:30] <matti_> ?
[20:31] <corinne_> They offer, and then they tell me they can't fine them.
[20:31] <souper> c3f59d4 did you uncomment the wacom lines the the xorg.conf?
[20:31] <c3f59d4> no
[20:31] <souper> that's a good place to start
[20:31] <gregory> corinne_: hmm, would you have an url for testing?
[20:31] <c3f59d4> okay, so xorg.conf and reboot?
[20:31] <_Martin23254> hi everyone
[20:32] <souper> yea make sure any line about wacom isn't commented
[20:32] <c3f59d4> okay, ill try that .. see you in 5 minutes :)
[20:32] <corinne_> gregory, I'm not sujre what you mean.
[20:32] <souper> alrighty
[20:33] <gregory> corinne_: ok, my mistake. one step back. what is the message when it "doesnt find the plugins"?
[20:33] <corinne_> matti_: sudo apt-get install pidgin
[20:33] <tvnz> matti_, gaim, amsn
[20:33] <bl4ckh3r0> ciao
[20:33] <corinne_> gregory: "There is no matching application available."
[20:34] <Cann0n> i thought gaim was discontinued
[20:34] <xim> is there no way to find out where a file is on your system after it comes up in a search?  it would be really nice if there was a column in the search window for location, but it seems like all you can do is right click each file and do properties, and even then it cuts off with a ..., it seems like there theres litterally NO way to find these files
[20:34] <|KoCoBo|>  kosovo je srce srbije!!!
[20:34] <|KoCoBo|>  kosovo je srce srbije!!!
[20:35] <Cann0n> tvnz, pidgin is gaim. gaim was renamed last april.
[20:35] <corinne_> Cann0n: gaim became pidgin because aim was bitching about the name
[20:35] <corinne_> jinx!
[20:35] <tvnz> :)
[20:35] <tvnz> sorry
[20:35] <Cann0n> lol
[20:35] <gregory> corinne_: you were using synaptic. could be a problem with the repositories (database where all the software is stored)
[20:35] <corinne_> Oh.
[20:36] <Cann0n> all good. i didnt know until i spent a week looking for it lol.
[20:36] <oddchild> hello all, my laptop does not notice when I plug things in the USB unless I do it before i turn it on. I recently bought a USB hard drive, it works for 30 minutes then shuts off (while doing things or not) then I cannot plug it back in... Any ideas?
[20:36] <gregory> corinne_: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[20:36] <_Martin23254> i just installed ubuntu and put screen resolution to 1024x768, but after rebot it's 640x480 and I cant go higher... What do i do?
[20:36] <corinne_> oddchild: I had the same problem.  I found a linux nerd, bought her dinner and she fixed it.
[20:37] <oddchild> corinne_,  lol none here on this small island... i think i would have to ask skipper or giligan
[20:37] <SavageOne> hey guys:  I'm installing zimbra open source, and it says I'm missing:  libltd13
[20:37] <corinne_> Surely gilligan could figure it out
[20:37] <SavageOne> I tried apt-get, apt-cache search etc
[20:37] <SavageOne> anyone know what that is?
[20:37] <gregory> _Martin23254: is it first time you reboot? try again. worked for me. after second reboot everything was ok ;-)
[20:37] <oddchild> corinne_,  that dunderhead ;)

[20:38] <ubotu> corinne_: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[20:39] <souper_> hmm well editing the grub config didn't work
[20:39] <corinne_> Flare183: I was talking to oddchild
[20:39] <gregory> _Martin23254: which version of ubuntu?
[20:39] <oddchild> corinne_,  i just found my own post on ubuntuforums .. lol

[20:39] <cc> okay, so im back
[20:39] <Flare183> corinne_: did you read the what ubotu said?
[20:40] <Flare183> Cann0n: yeah i know
[20:40] <souper> !tab
[20:40] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[20:40] <Flare183> Cann0n: they should through
[20:40] <_Martin23254> 7.1
[20:40] <corinne_> Flare183: yes...?
[20:40] <c3f59d4> souper, you french?
[20:41] <souper> no
[20:41]  * Flare183 ignores corinne_
[20:41] <Cann0n> Flare183, i agree
[20:41] <gregory> _Martin23254: sorry, me cant help, but other people can ;-)
[20:41] <gregory> corinne_: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[20:41] <tvnz> SavageOne, paste error code
[20:41] <c3f59d4> okay, your name suggests... so i decommented, changes nothing

[20:46] <Stroganoff> Cann0n

[20:47] <souper> c3f59d4: give me a minute I'll see what i can come up with
[20:47] <genii> ricko12345: Try installing programs with the package manager.eg: Add/Remove Programs

[20:48] <oddchild> steve__,  does it notice when you plug it in? what about on startup? i wonder if i have the same problem
[20:48] <Cann0n> c3f59d4, try google?
[20:48] <genii> ricko12345: The only time you should need to compile something is if you can't find it there, or when you can't find a .deb package for it from a reputable place.
[20:48] <oddchild> steven__,  does it notice when you plug it in? what about on startup? i wonder if i have the same problem
[20:48] <xim> steven__ ntfs should auto mount, ive been doing the SAME thing but im trying to replace ntfs with FAT32 so its more compatible, but my HD isnt accepting it easily
[20:48] <c3f59d4> CannOn sure man!
[20:48] <Stroganoff> steven__: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[20:48] <xim> im dealing with it as we speak

[20:50] <corinne_> oddchild: same question
[20:50] <ricko12345> not all the stuff i download is .deb
[20:50] <steven__> oddchild, xim, stroganoff, the system recognizes it but it won't let me access the files does it have something to do with the fact that its in a windows format
[20:50] <ricko12345> it is source
[20:50] <steven__> oddchild no i haven't
[20:50] <ubuntu2> i installed java but it says missing plugin? how can i start java?

[20:50] <steven__> oddchild, i put that command but nothing happen
[20:50] <steven__> stroganoff, i dunno what that is
[20:50] <corinne_> steven and oddchild, does this help? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5684
[20:50] <xim> steven__ do you mean it recognizes it as a device or it actually mounts
[20:51] <Jordan_U> ricko12345, What is it that you need to install that isn't available in the default repositories ( Add Remove / Synaptic ) ?
[20:51] <steven__> xim, i don't see it at all actually

[20:51] <oddchild> corinne_, AFS? ... i dont understand
[20:51] <jrib> ricko12345: have you enable the multiverse repository
[20:51] <ricko12345> also if i have .deb on desktop how do i install it with synaptic
[20:51] <Jordan_U> ricko12345, unrar is available in the default repositories, System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[20:52] <WhipsMcGee> is there a place that shows what packages I've got installed and how to remove them?  I want to remove netpbm
[20:52] <jrib> Chris|: look at /etc/event.d/tty*  Check the upstart notification to see how to properly stop those from getting executed
[20:52] <Chris|> ricko12345 open the deb with gdebi
[20:52] <Chris|> ok thanks jrib
[20:52] <jrib> !upstart > Chris| (read the private message from ubotu)
[20:52] <steven__> stroganoff, xim, oddchild, I'm trying to connect a mass usb storage device to my ubuntu partition i have a dual boot with windows vista, the usb drive is in windows format im trying to get it to mount and access the files inside how do i do this
[20:52] <Jordan_U> ricko12345, Or run "sudo apt-get install unrar"
[20:52] <jrib> Chris|: (I don't know if there is a cleaner way than just removing them)
[20:53] <WhipsMcGee> n/m found it
[20:53] <Chris|> yeah thats just what i want to do
[20:53] <Jordan_U> ricko12345, *always* check add remove / synaptic first
[20:53] <oddchild> steven__, what does it do when you start up?
[20:53] <ross`_> can someone tell me how to set which display modes can be used?
[20:53] <xim> steven__ ok do "sudo apt-get install lsscsi"  and then do "lsscsi"
[20:53] <steven__> oddchild, nothing at all it seems like its not being recognized
[20:53] <souper> c3f59d4: I think this might help with your touchscreen problems http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=327554
[20:54] <Cann0n> Jordan_U, you don't have to check those first. most of the time, its easier to type apt-get and the package name than is it to locate it.
[20:54] <Chris|> jrib just delete the tty's i dont want running?
[20:54] <oddchild> steven__,  are you in 7.10?
[20:54] <steven__> oddchild yes
[20:54] <steven__> xim im gonna do that now
[20:54] <biabia> if i install xubuntu 7.04 i can upgrade then to 7.10?
[20:54] <biabia> i have the 7.04 disk handy
[20:54] <Jordan_U> Cann0n, I know, but right now he is searching on the internet and just finding source packages.
[20:54] <oddchild> biabia,  yeah it is easy
[20:54] <ross`_> can someone tell me how to set which display modes can be used please
[20:54] <biabia> ok
[20:55] <biabia> thankie
[20:55] <jrib> Chris|: probably best to back them up somewhere.  If you look inside, you can probably just comment the line that tells it to run on runlevel 2.  Again, I'm not really familiar with upstart, so at least glance through their docs
[20:55] <Lamego> biabia, yes, but it would be preferable to installl 7.10 from a fresh install, it should take the same bandwidth as doing the upgrade
[20:55] <Jordan_U> Chris|, What's the point in removing the ttys?
[20:55] <b47619> !hardy
[20:55] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[20:55] <c3f59d4> souper thx man! ill follow that through
[20:55] <Chris|> Jordan_U i heard that the tty's arent never used, only 2 or 3 would be needed
[20:55] <ross`_> ubotu resolution
[20:55] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[20:55] <Cann0n> Jordan_U, true. i wasnt familiar with apt-get when i started with ubuntu, and i had been running slackware for years.
[20:55] <xim> steven__ lsscsi lists your scsi devices, tell us if the device is listed and what its name is (ex /dev/sdg)
[20:55] <steven__> xim,  disk    ATA      HTS541060G9AT00  MB3W  /dev/sda
[20:56] <xim> thats your primary hard drive
[20:56] <wonsnot> hello
[20:56] <steven__> is it?
[20:56] <steven__> ok then nothign shows up
[20:56] <xim> only that one?
[20:56] <souper> c3f59d4: no problem
[20:56] <steven__> the other thing is my cd drive
[20:56] <wonsnot> im new here
[20:56] <ross`_> ubotu changing resolutions to be used
[20:56] <steven__>  disk    ATA      HTS541060G9AT00  MB3W  /dev/sda
[20:56] <Lamego> Chris|, tty's don't use much resources
[20:56] <ross`_> grr
[20:56] <ross`_> ubotu changing set resolutions
[20:57] <ross`_> can someone help me here!!
[20:57] <Chris|> i want to conserve everything i can get
[20:57] <noAUdio> I am having problems where my headphone and speakers have audio coming out at the same time... i read on the forum to update to the newest alsa drivers but that iddnt resolve anything.. Can anyone pleae help me!?????
[20:57] <xim> steven__ the letter at the end 'a' like /dev/sda it gives those letters out in order i think, if its not even listing your HD as a device, im not sure you should probably make a post on ubuntuforums.org
[20:57] <wonsnot> is there a build that supports pre 1999 bios?
[20:57] <dlx> i'm using autofs on a debian etch system to mount a nfs share of a ubuntu system. so far this works great. but if the mount point is the current directory and i shut the nfs server down, there is no way to recover. Is there any way to handle this gracefully?
[20:57] <Cann0n> noAUdio, double click on your volume tray icon
[20:57] <biabia> oddchild thanks
[20:57] <biabia> and Lamego  good point
[20:58] <steven__> xim, that sucks so my plan B is sharing files with vista and ubuntu how do i do that?
[20:58] <noAUdio> Cann0n: ok ?
[20:58] <corinne_> oddchild: that fix helped me with my speakers, so it might help.
[20:58] <Cann0n> noAUdio, then in edit > preference, look for an option labeled "headphone jack sense"
[20:58] <corinne_> I'm trying to fi gure out how to install w32codecs
[20:58] <oddchild> corinne_,  ah okay
[20:58] <jrib> !w32codecs > corinne_ (read the private message from ubotu)
[20:58] <wonsnot> is there somewhere i can go to get an older build of ubuntu?
[20:58] <jrib> WhipsMcGee: why? ...
[20:59] <catfishlollipop> how do I get this package?  "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-server"
[20:59] <ricko12345> jordan when i type sudo apt-get install unrar it says unrar has no installation canidate
[20:59] <Lamego> catfishlollipop, from the repositories ?
[20:59] <ricko12345> Package unrar is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[20:59] <ricko12345> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[20:59] <ricko12345> is only available from another source
[20:59] <Cann0n> noAUdio, did that fix it?
[21:00] <jrib> ricko12345: go to System -> Administration -> Software Sources and enable Multiverse.  Please do not paste in the channel
[21:00] <steven__> how do you share files between vista and ubuntu
[21:00] <Lamego> ricko12345, the multiverse needs to be enabled
[21:00] <Lamego> stefano__, using samba
[21:00] <catfishlollipop> Lamego, I tried to do apt-get and it said it couldnt find the package
[21:01] <ricko12345> i cant see software sources
[21:01] <jrib> ricko12345: what version of ubuntu?
[21:01] <jrib> !version | ricko12345
[21:01] <catfishlollipop> gutsy
[21:01] <ubotu> ricko12345: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell
[21:01]  * IndyGunFreak sees dead peo[ple, but no sources
[21:01] <ricko12345> 5.10 daper
[21:01] <komplott> ing
[21:01] <IndyGunFreak> ricko12345: you have an amazing distro, it doesn't exist
[21:01] <jrib> ricko12345: please run the command that ubotu just gave you
[21:01] <coleosis> Here's a question for you, at school I can access Windows shares via the network just by typing in the computer name, for example: \\COMPNAME, Is there a similar way I can access these shares from Ubuntu?
[21:02] <corinne_> I'm having the same problem as ricko12345, but with w32codecs
[21:02] <steven__> how do you share files between vista and ubuntu
[21:02] <Liorc> same network ?
[21:02] <jrib> corinne_: did you read what ubotu sent you?
[21:02] <ricko12345> the sudo command
[21:02] <xim> steven__ check my pm
[21:02] <danand_> coleosis - yes. with smbmount command - smbmount //server/share /mountpoint
[21:02] <souper> coleosis: you need samba installed and you can access them by smb://
[21:03] <coleosis> yea
[21:03] <jrib> ricko12345: lsb_release -a
[21:03] <coleosis> thanks guys for the help
[21:03] <urlwolf> I'm backwards from most people
[21:03] <genii> coleosis: in file browser, smb://workgroupname              or smb://computername
[21:03] <danand_> coleosis - install smbfs to do that command from a cli
[21:03] <urlwolf> I have a fonts problem
[21:03] <Liorc> try use Places --> Network you might see vista on the same lan
[21:03] <urlwolf> but not an OS fonts problem
[21:03] <corinne_> jrib: A-HA!  I will try that, thank you! :D
[21:03] <mirak> is there a way to copy a ntfs partitions to another ntfs partition ?
[21:03] <urlwolf> It's netbeans (a swing application)
[21:03] <genii> souper: smbclient only
[21:03] <steven__> xim, i didn't get your pm
[21:03] <genii> which is on default install
[21:04] <urlwolf> The damn thing doesn't see the fonts I have installed on my system
[21:04] <ricko12345> lsb version:    n/a
[21:04] <coleosis> You guys are life savers.
[21:04] <souper> if you don't want to share folders to windows computers
[21:04] <xim> does it say my name on the left?
[21:04] <urlwolf> anyone knows a workaround?
[21:04] <Ace2016> look at the xorg on my desktop, i can't keep switching from my laptop to my desktop constantly
[21:04] <Ace2016> woops wrong tab
[21:04] <roland> hello!
[21:04] <xim> steven__  im sortof a beginner too, im just going through something similiar as you, i think vista has a new file system called WinFS that linux probably cant read yet (i havent researched this) otherwise you could probably just mount your vista partition in linux, NTFS will work in linux tho although it gets REAL pissy if you dont safely remove hardware before you plug into linux, but someone should be able to help
[21:04] <Scunizi> urlwolf, sudo fc-cache -f -v
[21:04] <xim>  you if you make a post describing what your trying to do and maybe also what you got from lsscsi
[21:04] <xim>  the forums are really better than IRC IMO, lots of really knowledgable people that can tell you exactly what to do if you just ask, usually within a day
[21:04] <urlwolf> I did that
[21:05] <roland> im facing a DCOP server issue.. i went to #kubuntu.. they pointed me back here since im an UBUNTU user..
[21:05] <Scunizi> urlwolf, where did you put any new fonts that you need access to?
[21:05] <urlwolf> it'll refresh the fonts for the system
[21:05] <Lamego> xim, you are wrong, Vista uses NTFS
[21:05] <souper> xim: samba can communicate with my vista computers... vista still uses ntfs
[21:05] <urlwolf> but not for hava apps
[21:05] <urlwolf> I wonder why that is
[21:05] <xim> oh ok like i said i hadnt reasearched it
[21:05] <corinne_> jrib: wow, this is complicated...
[21:05] <urlwolf> s/hava/java/
[21:05] <ubuntu2> jrib bash: apt-cache: command not found
[21:05] <greasy_leftwing> xim: this is true
[21:05] <ubuntu2> i installed java but it says missing plugin? how can i start java?
[21:05] <trend> anyone have antivirus recommendations for my fileserver to scan my windows files?
[21:06] <jrib> corinne_: really?  What are you reading exactly?
[21:06] <greasy_leftwing> you can mount using ntfs-3g
[21:06] <steven__> xim, thank you i wish i could find a way to do this easier haha
[21:06] <Cann0n> but vista is still very glitchy.
[21:06] <Lamego> trend, clamav
[21:06] <jrib> ubuntu2: erm.  What distribution are you using?
[21:06] <ricko12345> i ran sudo apt-get install unrar but i got error
[21:06] <danand_> trend - clamav?
[21:06] <ubuntu2> jrib sus
[21:06] <trend> clamav doesn't do filesystem scanning anymore.. just antivirus
[21:06] <urlwolf> any java wiz here?
[21:06] <jrib> ricko12345: did you enable multiverse?
[21:06] <trend> i mean email
[21:06] <gnuskool> i got LAMP, phpmyadmin running, but when i try install a cms with the index.php file it keeps re-opening the file in mozilla, help
[21:06] <trend> heh
[21:06] <Cann0n> ricko12345, check your source file
[21:06] <jrib> ubuntu2: suse?
[21:06] <Lamego> ricko12345, have you enabled the repository as described
[21:06] <ubuntu2> yea
[21:07] <Scunizi> urlwolf, you should put additional fonts in /home/<username>/.fonts
[21:07] <jrib> ubuntu2: /join #suse
[21:07] <xim> sure, you gotta make friends with the forums tho dude its really helpful once you get registered
[21:07] <urlwolf> I don't understand where java grabs its fonts
[21:07] <ubuntu2> jrib banned from there
[21:07] <jrib> ubuntu2: this channel is only for ubuntu support
[21:07] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu2: lol, well then you have a serious problem
[21:07] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu2: maybe #linux
[21:07] <corinne_> jrib: wait, I think I've got it.  http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl/dists/gutsy-seveas/
[21:07] <urlwolf> not from standard locations it seems
[21:07] <ricko12345> i cant find software sources
[21:07] <Scunizi> urlwolf, probably from where they are register in the system..
[21:08] <urlwolf> ok
[21:08] <Scunizi> !fonts | urlwolf
[21:08] <ubotu> urlwolf: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[21:08] <Malik_> can some1 help me out with the partioning part in the ubuntu installation
[21:08] <trend> maybe I am wrong about clamav.. but clamav.org says just email scanning
[21:08] <Malik_> i kinda screwed it all up
[21:08] <jrib> ricko12345: oh right.  I asked you to run 'lsb_release -a' and tell me the output
[21:08] <jrib> !who | ricko12345
[21:08] <ubotu> ricko12345: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[21:08] <danand_> ricko12345 - check your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[21:08] <urlwolf> my terminal, all other apps etc show any new fonts I add after doing  fc-cache -f -v
[21:08] <Malik_> can some1 help me out?
[21:08] <urlwolf> but Netbeans won't
[21:08] <jrib> corinne_: yes, that is one way
[21:08] <TheGhostRiDER> Hi.
[21:08] <Liorc> yea Malik what you need ?
[21:08] <Malik_> i kinda need a guide for a few secs
[21:08] <TheGhostRiDER> I cannot run any programs on this newuser I made.
[21:08] <urlwolf> they show completely unrelated lists of fonts
[21:08] <jrib> corinne_: but the wiki page has the instructions for actually using it
[21:08] <IndyGunFreak> ricko12345: just system/admin/software repositories, and check all the boxes(assujming you have a GUI)
[21:08] <Malik_> i hav a 40 gb hd
[21:09] <Malik_> with xp on it
[21:09] <Malik_> and i am installing ubuntu
[21:09] <TheGhostRiDER> How do I fix this?
[21:09] <Liorc> how many partition you have ?
[21:09] <Malik_> rite now i hav 2 partioins
[21:09] <Ward1983> Malik_, its best to just ask your question :)
[21:09] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | Malik_
[21:09] <ubotu> Malik_: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[21:09] <wirrwarr> hum
[21:09] <Malik_> alrite
[21:09] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: be more specific as to what exactly you did and what the outcome was (pick some program that is not working)
[21:09] <ricko12345> it says 5.10
[21:09] <Scunizi> urlwolf, maybe netbeans has something in its .conf file that describes where to look for the fonts it uses.
[21:09] <Malik_> i see 7 partins
[21:09] <IndyGunFreak> ricko12345: thats a very dated distro.
[21:09] <jrib> ricko12345: 5.10 is no longer supported, you need to upgrade
[21:09] <TheGhostRiDER> jrib: im trying to run iroffer
[21:09] <Malik_> and i only had 2 but i messed up
[21:09] <urlwolf> for example I have a font in netbeans called DialogInput
[21:10] <Malik_> how can i figure out which is which
[21:10] <urlwolf> that is nowhere to be found in my system
[21:10] <ricko12345> damn
[21:10] <urlwolf> it must come with java
[21:10] <Malik_> i wana restart the install and do a fresh 1
[21:10] <TheGhostRiDER> Like I said, I made a new user and I cant even sudo
[21:10] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: I have no idea what that is.  Is there no default application that is not working?
[21:10] <Malik_> and put my partioins back to normal
[21:10] <Scunizi> urlwolf, try sudo updatedb then locate DialogInput
[21:10] <Malik_> how can i find otu which hav xp on them
[21:10] <Liorc> Malik_ : are you in live CD ?
[21:10] <Ward1983> Malik_, mount them with the ubuntu live CD to make sure, and prey you didnt mess up too bad
[21:10] <Malik_> yes iam in live cd
[21:10] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: new users can only sudo if you add them to the admin group
[21:10] <corinne_> jrib: I'm not sure what to do on this page.
[21:10] <Cann0n> Malik_, dual booting?
[21:10] <TheGhostRiDER> hold on
[21:10] <Malik_> yes
[21:11] <danand_> Malik_ - run sudo fdisk -l to see your current disk partitions
[21:11] <jrib> corinne_: link me to the page you are reading (ubotu made 2 different suggestions)
[21:11] <greasy_leftwing> this is gettin messy
[21:11] <Malik_> i see my current partioins
[21:11] <corinne_> jrib: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[21:11] <Malik_> and there r 7
[21:11] <danand_> Malik_ - the ones that say NTFS will be your Windows partitions
[21:11] <Malik_> where there should be 2
[21:11] <Malik_> o okay
[21:11] <Malik_> but i only see 1 nts
[21:11] <TheGhostRiDER> jrib: how
[21:11] <urlwolf> the fonts I install are in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/custom
[21:11] <urlwolf> ie consolas
[21:11] <IndyGunFreak> Malik_: so what are all the other ones?
[21:11] <Malik_> there should be 2 nts cause i ahd to winodws partioins
[21:12] <jrib> corinne_: use medibuntu, the instructions are probably easier to follow: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[21:12] <danand_> Malik_ - pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l
[21:12] <Cann0n> Malik_, when i dual booted windows xp and gutsy, i had 4

[21:14] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu2: you've been told repeatedly this is not suse support.. if you're banned from suse, ask in #linux
[21:14] <Ward1983> ubuntu2, does this look like a suse channel???
[21:14] <Cann0n> malik, did you get my private message?
[21:14] <Scunizi> ubuntu2, ask in #suse?
[21:14] <Lamego> ubuntu2, please stop doing suse questions here, you have been warned already
[21:14] <Cann0n> Malik_,  did you get my private message?
[21:14] <IndyGunFreak> Scunizi: he is banned from there, i'm beginning to understand why
[21:14] <souper> lol
[21:14] <Ward1983> lol
[21:15] <Scunizi> IndyGunFreak, I guess :/
[21:15] <gligorhoria> hey guys i think the ubotu should talk aboute "itself" at the third person, because a lot of persones (new persons) are confused when he replys
[21:15] <urlwolf> ok
[21:15] <ubuntu2> i am fcn banned from there
[21:15] <roland> any1 faced a dcopserver error ?
[21:15] <thesurvivorman> he probably was asking ubuntu questions there
[21:15] <urlwolf> looking at the conf file for netbeans
[21:15] <urlwolf> I have -Dswing.useSystemFontSettings=true
[21:15] <corinne_> jrib: yes, which is why I'm a bit confused
[21:15] <Malik_> cann0n: i did
[21:15] <urlwolf> so it must be looking
[21:15] <jrib> ubuntu2: you're offtopic here
[21:15] <Ward1983> ubuntu2, well nobody will help you here... ask them to unban you
[21:15] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu2: well maybe you should do as suggested ask in #linux, or switch to a distro  you can use
[21:15] <gligorhoria> now who can help me with some kernel isues
[21:15] <urlwolf> but who knows where, because it doesn't find fonts
[21:15] <ubuntu2> it will take too long
[21:15] <TheGhostRiDER> jrib: command not found
[21:16] <Cann0n> i'll will walk you through it
[21:16] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: what did you type?
[21:16] <TheGhostRiDER> sudo group
[21:16] <ubuntu2> why are you people so selfish
[21:16] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: that's not what I said though :/
[21:16] <ubuntu2> is suse your enemy?
[21:16] <Lamego> TheGhostRiDER, sudo usermod -g admin user
[21:16] <TheGhostRiDER> what did you say?
[21:16] <TheGhostRiDER> ok
[21:16] <Malik_> can0n: private
[21:16] <Liorc> nah but its ubuntu chat lol
[21:16] <greasy_leftwing> how do I install the grubnuts-loop-transverter in mandrake?
[21:16] <thesurvivorman> and yes, suse killed my father
[21:16] <jrib> ubuntu2: stay on topic or I will have to ban you here as well.  The topic is *ubuntu* support
[21:16] <souper> TheGhostRiDER: That's what i said but i didn't mean to type it as a command i meant to try and add the user to the sudo group
[21:16] <danand_> gligorhoria - read up on that kernel interupts timing. Unfortunately thats not configurable on the fly - its set in the config when you compile the kernel.
[21:17] <TheGhostRiDER> usermod: unknown group admin
[21:17] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: as your original user, "sudo adduser NEW_USER admin"
[21:17] <ubuntu2> what is ubuntu?
[21:17] <Cann0n> Malik_, I am, you aren't replying.
[21:17] <TheGhostRiDER> i am!
[21:17] <gligorhoria> i have a kernell panic, non synking, nenory fail to write or something, i get there erros at high loads, should i change my ram?

[21:17] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: what distribution is this?
[21:17] <urlwolf> not a .fonts
[21:17] <Malik_> can0n: i replyed
[21:17] <Lamego> TheGhostRiDER, you don't have an admin group ? are you able to sudo with other users ?
[21:17] <Scunizi> ubuntu2, maybe we can't support it because we're not aware of how it's packagning system works, or what's in it's repos or may it just because were too busy supporting UBUNTU
[21:17] <roland> any1 faced a dcopserver error ?
[21:17] <Ward1983> Cann0n, Malik_ you need to register to be able to send PMs
[21:18] <Malik_> u do?
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> Malik_: gotta be registered to pm
[21:18] <Ward1983> Malik_, yes :)
[21:18] <TheGhostRiDER> jrib: ubuntu 7.10 i believe
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> Malik_: the two of you can just join a private room, its not that difficult
[21:18] <Ward1983> Malik_, jsut register your nickname :)
[21:18] <Cann0n> Ward1983, oh, didnt think about that. i am registered. :)
[21:18] <Malik_> can0n: iam not rigestered
[21:18] <TheGhostRiDER> Lamego: nope
[21:18] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: what does "lsb_release -c" return?
[21:18] <Ward1983> Cann0n, i know thats why i used highlight to make sure you read it :)
[21:18] <TheGhostRiDER> gutsy
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> Cann0n: just make a channel and the two of you go there, thats the easiest thing w/ an unreg'd user
[21:18] <Bob_Dole> wait, ubuntu2 wants help with SuSe, so why doesn't he go to #SuSe?
[21:19] <Scunizi> banned?
[21:19] <Ward1983> Bob_Dole, hes banned there
[21:19] <ubuntu2> yes
[21:19] <souper> TheGhostRiDER: have you tried  "sudo adduser NEW_USER sudo"   ?
[21:19] <IndyGunFreak> Bob_Dole: he's banned
[21:19] <greasy_leftwing> he's banned from there apparently

[21:19] <ubotu> Bob_Dole: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.
[21:19] <TheGhostRiDER> hold o
[21:19] <ubuntu2> and ven if ai am unbanned it takes too long
[21:19] <TheGhostRiDER> n
[21:19] <gligorhoria> danand_ ty, that is most helphul information, i am surprised to get an answer from u today, don't get me wrong it is still verry usefull, the thing is now that i'm having problems whith compiling the kernel... ty again
[21:19] <Lamego> TheGhostRiDER, if you have removed the admin group you will need to boot into rescue mode, recreate the group and add the users to the group
[21:19]  * IndyGunFreak thinks Bob_Dole is a bit slow on the uptake..lol
[21:19] <Bob_Dole> So, I use it once, and that is a regular basis.
[21:19] <Bob_Dole> I've been AFR.
[21:19] <greasy_leftwing> why are you banned? and if so, why come to us? are you selling big issue or summt?
[21:19] <TheGhostRiDER> Lamego: i never touched it
[21:19] <Cann0n> Malik_, join #Cann0n
[21:19] <Bob_Dole> and also I don't type very well, stiff hands and such.
[21:20] <danand_> gligorhoria - np :) sorry to hear about kernel compile problem :(
[21:20] <TheGhostRiDER> jrib: worked
[21:20] <jrib> greasy_leftwing: please don't discuss it here anymore

[21:21] <RototoR> Hi! I`m trying to configure LDAP+Samba. But OpenLDAP doesn`t read in samba.schema, at least it does not allow to create samba user accounts (using phpLDAPadmin) and the samba schema entries don`t show up in the schema display of phpLDAPadmin. Any clue how I can debug this?
[21:21] <gligorhoria> danand_ right at the end it gives me somme errors but that was on debian, i changed to ubuntu server (the thing is i doesn't give me kernell panics on debian...)
[21:22] <corinne_> jrib: WHOA.  I just tried the exact same thing again and it worked this tim e
[21:22] <urlwolf> one more clue: using sdk6 does get some more fonts
[21:22] <urlwolf> if I use sdk5, it offers only about 10 (all horrible for programming)

[21:23] <zenlunatic> did 8.04 beta come out today?
[21:23] <Lamego> Malik_, if you install windows after you will need to restore grub
[21:24] <gligorhoria> Malik_ it is easier to install windows first
[21:24] <Malik_> wats grub?
[21:24] <Lamego> zenlunatic, for hardy questions, go to #ubuntu+1

[21:30] <ubuntu2> gligorhoria i think they did it on porpose. it was well planned
[21:30] <ubuntu2> i think they did it on purpose. it was well planned
[21:30] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu2: ?  on purpose?
[21:30] <Lamego> Finnish, you will need to configure the POP3 account for it, not sure if there are instructions for evolution on the gmails page
[21:30] <ubuntu2> yes
[21:30] <ubuntu2> why did they do it
[21:30] <henryvps> where can i find a some old repository where could be mysql-query-browser 5.0 r6?

[21:34] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> does any1 know why the beta1 of hardy heron?
[21:34] <gligorhoria> Jonjonbt the ones that u need later on in case of system crash (data loss)
[21:34] <PeterGriffin> hi all !
[21:34] <IndyGunFreak> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: its not beta yet
[21:34] <IndyGunFreak> !hardy | YgorAbreu_ESP_BR
[21:34] <ubotu> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[21:35] <Jonjonbt> so like WINDOWS and Documents and Settings?
[21:35] <ani1> Jonjonbt: theirs not one speicif file anything you deem important
[21:35] <ani1> specific*
[21:35] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: reboot in recovery mode and see if your /etc/sudoers says anything about "admin".  Write down the line, come back, and tell us
[21:35] <Jonjonbt> Not really
[21:35] <PeterGriffin> can somebody help me ? i have this problem with wine : err:advapi:service_get_status service protocol error - failed to read pipe r = 0  count = 0!
[21:35] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> IndyGunFreak: not beta? so this page is fake? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron/Beta
[21:36] <roland> dcopserver any1!? help
[21:36] <IndyGunFreak> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: that is alpha, not beta..
[21:36] <gligorhoria> Jonjonbt the pictues that u have, you documents, stuff on the descktop, music, gamesaves etc...
[21:36] <Jonjonbt> Okay, so Documents and Settings only?
[21:36] <gligorhoria> will there be a hardy server ?
[21:36] <Jonjonbt> It'll save "WINDOWS"?
[21:36] <ani1> Jonjonbt: just take note of the partition and the device name as this is the most likely of situations where you will overwrite your windows install if its a SATA disk its probably /dev/sda1 make swap sda2 and ubuntu sda3 check and write down what its dev name is
[21:36] <gregory> gligorhoria: sure - desktop and server iso
[21:36] <ani1> Jonjonbt: if its on a different disk then unplug that disk if your totally unsure
[21:37] <TheGhostRiDER> k
[21:37] <Lamego> Jonjonbt, you are the only person that can be aware where you have saved your data, the default place is under document and settings
[21:37] <TheGhostRiDER> how to reboot in recovery mode?
[21:37] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> o.O so correct me if im wrong(guess i am) but why is called beta then---?
[21:37] <souper> PeterGriffin: I would suggest joining #wine
[21:37] <Jonjonbt> so "Documents and Settings".
[21:37] <Lamego> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, for questions about hardy, please join #ubuntu+1
[21:37] <Jonjonbt> And that's it?
[21:37] <PeterGriffin> ok souper thanks !
[21:37] <gligorhoria> gregory ok, ty - that's neat :D
[21:37] <ani1> Jonjonbt: again it depends on where you save your data it could be anywhere
[21:37] <amortvigil> what programs i need to run dvd's
[21:37] <Jonjonbt> So it shouldn't delete "WINDOWS"?
[21:38] <ani1> Jonjonbt: not if you dont want to you can dual boot
[21:38] <Lamego> Jonjonbt, your questions is turning a bit off-topic, try ##windows
[21:38] <Dresken> My refresh rate shows a maximum of 65Hz for 1024x768 when my monitor supports up to 87Hz, any idea how I can fix this?
[21:38] <Liorc> amortvigil : totem installed by defaualt can do it
[21:38] <roland> Jonjonbt,  backup up ur prvt data and so on like pics documents etc... then boot with ubuntu and partition ur hdd manualy so u could edit ur partitions to give ur new ubuntu instalation space it needs.. while keepign windows intact... b careful not to over resize ur windows partitins...
[21:38] <bobbo85> Hi all, wondering what I can use to backup my files to DVDs with Ubuntu.  I just installed HUBackup, but nothing happens when I run the command, so I uninstalled it.  Any ideas?
[21:38] <Jonjonbt> And also, should I backup Program Files
[21:38] <aurax> anyone here uses jsvc?
[21:38] <gligorhoria> Jonjonbt all of it man!
[21:38] <ani1> bobbo85: if your just trying to burn i suggest k3b choose dvd data then drag drop and burn
[21:39]  * Jonjonbt doesn't have enough mobile space to hold it all
[21:39] <jrib> TheGhostRiDER: when you reboot, it is a choice in the grub menu
[21:39] <TheGhostRiDER> k
[21:39] <roland> Jonjonbt,  no no need to backup ur documents and settings! just backup ur OWN data... ur PERSONAL files.. windows cant b abcked! u coudl do a recovery cd if ur worried bout ur windows
[21:39] <bobbo85> anil, I'm talking like backing up 20 gb onto DVDs, will k3b do that?
[21:39] <gligorhoria> Jonjonbt think as when u buy a new computer, every file u would want to put on you new computer should be saved
[21:39] <ani1> Jonjonbt: you should probably stop with the same question...burn it to a disk , go buy another disk , go buy an external do whatever it is that is most important to you but you and you alone are the only person to decide that
[21:40] <ani1> bobbo85: you can back it up in chunks its like nero if you use windows if your looking for a whole system back up its a different story
[21:40] <amortvigil> when i mount dvds i get "mount: not a directory"
[21:40] <gligorhoria> ani1 my next answer would have been "yes delte windows" :D
[21:40] <amortvigil> how to fix?
[21:40] <corinne_> jonjonbi: an external drive is a sensible investment anyway, as you can use it to back up your system in the future
[21:41] <Jonjonbt> So the installer probably won't delete anything in "WINDOWS"?
[21:41] <Lamego> amortvigil, you are providing "mount" where you should provide an existing path, for the mount point
[21:41] <ani1> amortvigil: read the mount command its mount /dev/xxx /path/to/mount/point
[21:41] <roland> Jonjonbt,  the installer is setup for u to use it.. it depends on ur iq..
[21:41] <Lamego> Jonjonbt, if you create a differente partition, it will not delete it, the installer works partition wise, it doesn't care about directories
[21:41] <ani1> Jonjonbt: if you write it to a different partition it wont do _ANYTHING_ to the windows install
[21:41] <gligorhoria> Jonjonbt if u do it right
[21:41] <souper> Jonjonbt: not unless you tell it to
[21:41] <Jonjonbt> Okay, I'll work around with it
[21:42] <Lokian> hi all
[21:42] <walilo789> hello i'm searching for program like "internet download manager" in windows please help me !!!
[21:42] <roland> Jonjonbt,  as i said... backup ur OWN data just in case (dont back up windows thts stupid) and then do a MANUAL install
[21:42] <PeterGriffin> hi all , is there a TACACS client for linux available ?
[21:42] <Lokian> Where do I find a vnc server install for Ubuntu server?
[21:42] <gligorhoria> !vnc
[21:42] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[21:42] <Cann0n> walilo789, this is Ubuntu, not Windows.
[21:42] <roland> walilo789,  evern though this isnt the place to help for such windows based issues.. but my fav is "flashget"
[21:42] <Jonjonbt> roland: What's my OWN data?
[21:42] <Lamego> walilo789, Add/Remove programs, search for "download manager"
[21:43] <roland> Jonjonbt,  tht gotta b the stupidest Q any1 has asked here
[21:43] <gligorhoria> man this ubotu is cool
[21:43] <tim167desktop> hi, my bluetooth worked, but after eboot hcitool scan returns 'No such device' how can i make it work =
[21:43] <amortvigil> Lamego: anil ok ty but i get this error while ubuntu is auto mounting
[21:43] <tim167desktop> ?
[21:43] <bobbo85> anil, the last program I used was called Genie backup (windows).  I would select what directories and files I wanted to backup with check marks, and save that backup routine as like "my backup" - then I would run that backup, and it would tell me I needed 6 DVDs and just ask me to insert one after another...  Is this sort of thing possible with Ubuntu?
[21:43] <Jonjonbt> roland: Docs and Settings?
[21:44] <walilo789> tanks I tried it but they are not to useful
[21:44] <ani1> Jonjonbt: it is getting really annoying i think you know the answer but are getting a rise...When you ask an intelligent question you shall receive an intelligent answer...Your own data is data owned by you..
[21:44] <Cann0n> Jonbo, your own data is YOUR data that is Yours
[21:44] <Centaur5> Should installing oem-config-prepare on a machine that was installed in regular text mode still work?
[21:44] <roland> Jonjonbt,  man if u dunno tht u cannot backup windows as a whole.. i dont think u could start up with linux
[21:44] <Cann0n> sounds like a troll to me
[21:44] <ani1> bobbo85: heh i just stumbled on this article http://packratstudios.com/index.php/2008/03/11/symantec-ghost-who-a-list-of-open-source-alternatives/
[21:44] <corinne_> jonjonbt: your data means your music, porn, films, etc.
[21:44] <ani1> bobbo85: i think this is what your looking for
[21:44] <roland> lol corinne_
[21:44] <Jonbo> :>
[21:44] <phuzion> How can I take a screenshot in Gnome?
[21:45] <ani1> phuzion: print screen button on keyboard
[21:45] <corinne_> jonjonbt: if you are dual booting, then all your windows "documents and settings" etc. will remain part of your windows boot.
[21:45] <Jonjonbt> Thank you
[21:45] <gligorhoria> please stop spaming!
[21:45] <bobbo85> Cool anil I'll check it out thanks
[21:45] <roland> corinne_,  its hist first time using linux.. hes worried he might mess up
[21:45] <phuzion> ani1, where does it save to?
[21:45] <bastid_raZor> phuzion; or Applications>Accessories>Take a Screenshot
[21:45] <souper> i'm worried he might mess it up
[21:45] <corinne_> roland: I installed ubuntu less than a week ago.
[21:45] <morn-> good evening
[21:45] <bastid_raZor> phuzion; you tell it where but normally it saves to ~/
[21:45] <roland> corinne_,  good for u
[21:45] <houmala> Has anyone used the Belkin USB hub with U 7.10 ??
[21:46] <DjViper> evenin' morn-
[21:46] <corinne_> :)
[21:46] <DjViper> corinne_: happy with it?
[21:46] <roland> k so back to my prob...
[21:46] <phuzion> bastid_raZor, thanks dude
[21:46] <IndyGunFreak> Lamego: you still here?
[21:46] <roland> any1 fdaced a DCOPSERVER communiccation error ?
[21:46] <corinne_> DjViper: so far, once I figured out how to actually use it, yes.  But remember, I'm coming from Vista, so Windows 3.1 would have been an improvement.
[21:46] <Lamego> IndyGunFreak, yes
[21:46] <roland> i know its KDE based.. but kubuntu wont help! and KDE is full with zombies...
[21:47] <Possu2> im getting Kubuntu right now but I am thinking maybe i should wait until the 26th?   Example, when someone puts my name in a message, make that text bright yellow or something...
[21:47] <houmala> anyone with any experience with Belkin network to USB hub device??
[21:47] <DjViper> corinne_: hehe okay :)
[21:47] <gligorhoria> will xorg slow ubuntu server?
[21:47] <pisecx> hi all. evolution is always started _not_ in network mode. I should always switch it. why? how can I resolve it? did not found any options in preferencies.
[21:47] <Lamego> Possu2, upgrade is supported, but I personally recommend a fresh install
[21:47] <DjViper> roland: language:p
[21:47] <ani1> houmala: state the problem...
[21:47] <IndyGunFreak> brb
[21:47] <roland> DjViper,  lol
[21:47] <bobbo85> I see "colors" in preferences, and I even see "mIRC colors:"  but it's just a bunch of unlabelled numbers...
[21:47] <mDemocritus> gligorhoria: a bit... depends on the machine
[21:47] <houmala> getting printers to work through it
[21:48] <amar-ze> is beta out ?
[21:48] <lascado> alguém pode me ajudar
[21:48] <Possu2> will a direct upgrade from Gutsy to Heron work well or will i have to reinstall the whole os
[21:48] <souper> bobbo85: xchat did that automatically for me
[21:48] <lascado> ??
[21:48] <KalEl> amar-ze, not out
[21:48] <Lamego> amar-ze, for hardy, check #ubuntu+1
[21:48] <gregory> amar-ze: #ubuntu+1

[21:48] <ubotu> lascado: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are english only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat

[21:48] <Shadow_mil> does the alternative CD have a text-based partitioner that allows you to resize?
[21:48] <Cann0n> is there a way to bind my laptop's sound buttons to the headphone jack?
[21:48] <houmala> in particular the HP L7680
[21:48] <corinne_> rolans: I didn't even know what linux was until I was forced to use vista.  After a week of vista, I had to do something.
[21:48] <Lamego> Possu2, an upgrade should work
[21:48] <pisecx> hi all. evolution is always started _not_ in network mode. I should always switch it. why? how can I resolve it? did not found any options in preferencies.
[21:48] <gligorhoria> mDemocritus old amd 850 Mhz 256 ram, will that kill it?
[21:49] <roland> corinne_,  heheh i used linux for the first time when i had to install asterisk at work
[21:49] <Cann0n> just realized hardware volume controls dont effect the headphone jack
[21:49] <ani1> ::away::
[21:49] <roland> corinne_,  and since then ive been using it none stop...
[21:49] <Shadow_mil> ?
[21:49] <Cann0n> roland, i was 15 and installed slackware
[21:49] <mDemocritus> gligorhoria: ick ick ick... what do you use it for now, and what do you want xorg for?
[21:49] <corinne_> Conn0n: right click on the volume control and click open volume control
[21:49] <roland> Cann0n,  i was 12 when i drove my first car.. :P lol
[21:50] <Possu2> I've used Linux since the first version of Fedora Core and even in this period of time it has improved a lot
[21:50] <gligorhoria> will xorg slow ubuntu server? and will it make any diference if i install xorg, do my job..., and then start linux in runlevel 2 again
[21:50] <Possu2> although I am still having problems with HD audio
[21:50] <kjashkj> what channel ubuntu in Portuguese?
[21:50] <Cann0n> corinne_, i know how to adjust volume, i had volume control buttons on my laptop, and they aren't binded to my headphone jack.

[21:50] <IRCLemur> Hello, I'm running ubuntu 7.10 on a Micronpc Transport GX that has a savage-IX Video card. When I mouse over certain things (Images mostly, but not all images, perhaps images without links) there is a white square, as opposed to the normal cursor. Can anyone help?)
[21:50] <kjashkj> thanks
[21:50] <xomp> hi everyone
[21:50] <Lamego> gligorhoria, it will depend on your server capacity, and it's load, running X will use considerable resources
[21:50] <mDemocritus> gligorhoria: on an 850mhz machine it won't slag it too much... but it depends
[21:51] <gligorhoria> mDemocritus hlds and apache server, not at top performance becaus i have to recompile the kernell first
[21:51] <pisecx> hi all. evolution is always started _not_ in network mode. I should always switch it. why? how can I resolve it? did not found any options in preferencies.
[21:51] <mDemocritus> gligorhoria: just use a simple wm like xfce
[21:51] <walilo789> so i have another problem
[21:51] <corinne_> Cann0n: after this, you should be able to control the headphones' volume in volume control.  If sound still comes out of your own machine's speakers, then just mute the "Front" sound and turn up the speakers.
[21:51] <walilo789> with my printer
[21:51] <whileimhere> I was wondering. I have been offered one of two old towers from work. There is a p3 with 384 megs of ram or a celeron with 256 megs of ram. What one is better?
[21:51] <mDemocritus> gligorhoria: what exactly do you need xorg for? like what apps?
[21:51] <walilo789> canon LBP-800
[21:51] <walilo789> i can't work with it on ubuntu Gusty
[21:51] <gligorhoria> headphones' that coul work for me 2, i just want mozilla and a chat or something
[21:52] <mohbana> how do i change the look of the taskbar i.e. instead of the dull grey, i've seen people change it, i am not just talking about the colours i mean the actual look aswell
[21:52] <tim167> my computer won't boot when the bluetooth adapter is plugged in, how come ?
[21:52] <gregory> whileimhere: i would take the one with 384 megs of ram
[21:52] <gligorhoria> not headphones aah
[21:52] <Cann0n> corinne_, again, i have these external buttons on the side of my laptop with up and down arrows. i want to be able to adjust volume via those buttons, instead of going into volume control.
[21:52] <whileimhere> I just dont know the difference between a P3 and a celeron
[21:52] <walilo789> so i have another problem with my printer canon LBP-800 i can't work with it on ubuntu Gusty
[21:53] <gregory> whileimhere: me also dont, but ram is more important then a fast processor
[21:53] <mDemocritus> so you just want real basic stuff? i'd use fluxbox or xfce for your windows manager... they're pretty lightweight
[21:53] <corinne_> mohbana: system > preferences > appearance >  visual effects
[21:53] <roland> whileimhere,  stay away from celeron
[21:53] <mDemocritus> gligorhoria: so you just want real basic stuff? i'd use fluxbox or xfce for your windows manager... they're pretty lightweight
[21:53] <mohbana> corinne_, i am not talking about compiz
[21:53] <riaal> anyone know what the equivalence to the GUI "lookup" is at the command-line?
[21:53] <Cann0n> corinne_, they work for the speakers, but not the headphone jack. the alsamixer works fine for adjusting volume
[21:53] <gligorhoria> ok i will refraze, will xorg be overkill for 850 MHz 256 ram and would it be so much better to use 512
[21:54] <whileimhere> I see okay
[21:54] <whileimhere> I will get the p3 then
[21:54] <corinne_> Cann0n: I can't do that on my machine, so if you figure that out, let me know.  What I do is plug in speakers with adjustable volume, and plug the headphones into the speakers so I can control the volume with that
[21:54] <mDemocritus> gilgorhoria: probably
[21:54] <tim167> i have to unplug my bluetooth adapter for my computer to boot, how can i circumvent that ? thanks
[21:54] <roland> gligorhoria,  i got xubuntu working on a pc with those specs.. its a bit slugish
[21:54] <gligorhoria> mDemocritus ty i think i will use xcfc
[21:54] <mDemocritus> gilgorhoria: but it would still run
[21:54] <walilo789> linuxac#
[21:54] <walilo789> #linuxac
[21:54] <gregory> riaal: sudo apt-get install lookup
[21:54] <walilo789> sorry
[21:54] <lilumi> ????????????? ???????????? ?????
[21:54] <corinne_> mahbana: did you check the forums?
[21:54] <riaal> gregory: cheers
[21:55] <LjL-Temp> !ru | lilumi

[21:56] <mDemocritus> but it isn't pretty lol
[21:56] <Cann0n> my bad LjL-Temp. sorry.
[21:56] <walilo789> so i have another problem with my printer canon LBP-800 i can't work with it on ubuntu Gusty
[21:56] <souper> god everytime i look at the feature list for hardy, i can't help but ask why out loud when i see transmission is the default BT client
[21:56] <riaal> gregory: are you sure?
[21:56] <bobbo85> souper, yeah right now, messages with my name in them are dark red.  I was just wondering what the deal is with using numbers and colored boxes, instead of labeling what they are!
[21:56] <roland> mDemocritus,  itll run alright but not as it should! opening firefox would hang the entire sys for a few sec
[21:56] <corinne_> Cann0n: Maybe this will still work: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=568463&page=8
[21:56] <gligorhoria> roland i would use something better... ...
[21:56] <mDemocritus> roland: for sure
[21:57] <roland> now am using ubuntu on my laptop ... 2.5 core 2 duo, 2 gb ram
[21:57] <spartan7> how do you keep the compiz cube zoomed out?

[21:58] <walilo789> idon't know how to have answers pls help me
[21:58] <roland> mDemocritus,  loool see :P
[21:58] <gligorhoria> !ibook
[21:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ibook - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:58] <Cann0n> corinne_, mine works for the speakers, and i even get the pretty OSD
[21:58] <mDemocritus> gilgorhoria: an ibook is an old mac laptop... like REALLY old
[21:58] <Lamego> walilo789, you already posted your question, unfortunatelly there is no one familiar with your printer (guessing from the lack of answers)
[21:58] <mDemocritus> gilgorhoria: it looks like a toilet seat
[21:59] <spartan7> sorry is that another channel?
[21:59] <gregory> riaal: no, try nslookup, would that be the one you need?

[22:01] <roland> mDemocritus,  eachtime i open an application i get a "dcop communication error" check if DCOpserver program is running
[22:01] <riaal> gregory: Network Tools -> Lookup
[22:01] <Jaymac> gregory I think he is talking about lookup in Network Tools
[22:01] <mDemocritus> roland: and i'll bet it is running?

[22:02] <Jaymac> Lamego, the package you're talking about is for looking at text files isn't it?
[22:02] <Lamego> riaal, that is nslookup
[22:02] <roland> mDemocritus,  running kde apps in ubuntu
[22:02] <Lamego> Jaymac, forget it, I misunderstood the "lookup" meaning,
[22:03] <Jaymac> ah ok :)
[22:03] <bicchi> will there be an ubuntu beta CD today or tomorrow?
[22:03] <Lamego> riaal, the network tools gui lookup, is a gui for nslookup

[22:08] <DRebellion> iva, it should by default. What does it show instead?
[22:08] <DRebellion> !ask | EdwardXp3
[22:08] <ubotu> EdwardXp3: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[22:08] <mDemocritus> roland: just try running amarok in terminal
[22:09] <Tooommi> Rugg: I've tried that. It told me that "xserver-org was not installed"
[22:09] <roland> md5, same issue
[22:09] <IRCLemur> Does anyone know anything about the cursor switching to a white box when mousing over an image?
[22:09] <EdwardXp3> cannot open root device "<null>"     --- kernel panic not syncing VFS unable to mount root fs on unknown  <--- i get these kernel errors i did make make install on the extracted contents of thekernel :0
[22:09] <morn-> sorry iam noob to linux :) ... can someone tell me how to find out about  my gfx-onboard chip - i dont know the exact modell No
[22:09] <md5> roland, ?
[22:09] <Jaymac> morn-, try lspci
[22:09] <geoffx> hi, why cant i see my windows partitions ? i did before but now that im turning my pc on i cant see any partition besides the swap and linux
[22:09] <Cann0n> morn-, lspci
[22:10] <morn-> oki
[22:10] <Lamego> geoffx, on the terminal: sudo fdisk -l
[22:10] <morn-> ill do
[22:10] <Lamego> to list your partitions
[22:10] <roland> mDemocritus,  trying to creater local folder.. .kde/share permission denied
[22:10] <gregory> riaal, Jaymac ok, found the gui version. i think nslookup would be what you need
[22:10] <mDemocritus> roland: huh
[22:10] <iva> DRebellion, black screen and nothing on it...
[22:10] <morn-> Jaymac: does it check the chip direct, or the driver ive installed ?
[22:10] <Jaymac> morn-, it lists your hardware
[22:10] <riaal> Need the command-line equivalence of Administarion ->Jaymac
[22:10] <Bsims> I am having a problem with vlc... full screen does not work, I get nothing except a dark transparent overlay when I close the app any ideas?
[22:10] <Bizzeh> can you install ubuntu and tell it to NOT install a boot loader?
[22:10] <riaal> ops
[22:11] <riaal> lol
[22:11] <mDemocritus> roland: ls -ld /home/<username>
[22:11] <riaal> Jaymac: sorry ;)
[22:11] <DRebellion> iva, probs your monitor can't handle the resolution. edit /etc/usplash.conf and put in a resolution like 640x480
[22:11] <Cann0n> morn-, what kind of computer do you have?
[22:11] <morn-> Jaymac: allright ... ill be back with questions ;)
[22:11] <geoffx> Lamego:  done what i do now? i can see the other partitions there
[22:11] <Bsims> Bizzeh: ya should be able too why do you want to though?
[22:11] <IRCLemur> Anyone?! Big white box over images?
[22:11] <Lamego> geoffx, well, if you can list them it's good news, now you just need to mount them
[22:11] <morn-> Cann0n: i got a twinstar note book with VIA onboard chip
[22:12] <Lamego> sudo mount partition path
[22:12] <roland> mDemocritus,   drwxr-xr-x 49 roland roland 4096
[22:12] <morn-> Cann0n: i am trying to get the openchrome stuff running
[22:12] <spartan7> Does this question need to be asked in another channel? "how do you keep the compiz cube zoomed out?" i am new to IRC
[22:12] <clex> Every time i start ubuntu, i am in low-resolution mode. It won't remember my settings of monitor and graphics card driver. Happened when i tried to update driver. Any ideas ?
[22:12] <ToastGuy_> Do I have to re mount every time I restart my computer?
[22:12] <Slart> spartan7: you could ask it here.. or try in #compiz-fusion
[22:12] <mDemocritus> roland: mkdir /home/roland/.kde
[22:12] <ToastGuy_> I mounted a external windows directory
[22:13] <caveman26> how do I get the sys tray menu to work when I click on an icon for a widows program running in wine?
[22:13] <spartan7> thnks, anyone know ?
[22:13] <DRebellion> ToastGuy_, not if you add it to /etc/fstab
[22:13] <Cann0n> ToastGuy_, you can set up automounting in fstab
[22:13] <Bsims> clex: look in /var/cache/apt/archives/ and install the previous one
[22:13] <Lamego> ToastGuy_, automounts are set on /etc/fstab
[22:13] <geoffx> Lamego: ex: if the partition is "/dev/hda1" i should type "mount /dev/hda1" or am i missing something
[22:13] <gregory> riaal, Jaymac i see nslookup doesnt provide all the info the gui does. too bad
[22:13] <gligorhoria> http://pastebin.com/m67e5e865          kernel problems...
[22:13] <caveman26> I should get a menu when I click the sys tray icon
[22:13] <Slart> ToastGuy_: you can add a line or two in /etc/fstab and it will be automounted.. if you want to
[22:13] <Lamego> geoffx, sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/windows
[22:13] <roland> mDemocritus,  file already exists
[22:13] <erdnus> hi, i run Ub7.10 _64 with restricted drivers for my ati2900 (newest drivers)+ compiz. every time i start my ubuntu it freezes right when the GUI is comin up
[22:13] <gligorhoria> http://pastebin.com/m67e5e865
[22:13] <ToastGuy_> Okay, thanks guys... I'll do a man on fstab
[22:13] <Bsims> clex: you may need to install the dependencies manually as well
[22:13] <iva> DRebellion, thanks! I'll try that now
[22:13] <linkslice> anyone know what I can use to burn a .bin disk image?
[22:13] <mDemocritus> roland: cd /home/roland
[22:13] <riaal> gregory: I know, really want all info from the GUI one
[22:14] <DRebellion> !burner | linkslice
[22:14] <ubotu> linkslice: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[22:14] <Bsims> linkslice: apt-get install k3b
[22:14] <clex> bsims: thanks, will try. any idea why when i set manually after booting it reverts when reboot?
[22:14] <geoffx> Lamego: !? why /media/windows?
[22:14] <roland> create it there?!
[22:14] <Ashfire908> to specify a device to install grub on, how do i format a device (the /dev way)? do i just enter plain /dev/xxxX?
[22:14] <mDemocritus> roland: ls .kde              use pastebin for that one, it'll be big
[22:14] <clex> bsims: or even restarting x, i lose my mouse config also
[22:14] <Bsims> clex hrm not a clue what kinda card ya got
[22:14] <Lamego> geoffx, well, just mount it anywhere, /media/windows was an example, if you use /media/dir it will showup on your desktop
[22:14] <Cann0n> well, im out. good bye all.
[22:14] <Lamego> you will need to create that directory first
[22:14] <Slart> ToastGuy_: you can mount windows shares, nfs shares, ftp folders, webdav-folders.. well.. almost anything you can mount in a terminal.. you can put in /etc/fstab
[22:14] <Bsims> I am having a problem with vlc... full screen does not work, I get nothing except a dark transparent overlay when I close the app any ideas?
[22:15] <clex> bsims: radeon x800, seems like when i make changes to xorg.conf with mouse that is lost on reboot, like a failsafe is regenerating the file
[22:15] <roland> mDemocritus,  result=   "share" thts it
[22:15] <Bsims> Ah ATI's drivers suck even worse on linux than on windows... dunno but dowgrading might help
[22:15] <mDemocritus> roland: huh... run amarok again, any other errors, or is that the last one before it dies?
[22:15] <Slart> clex: check /var/log/xorg.log to see what configuration file it's using.. it might be usign the failsafe file..
[22:16] <clex> bsims: yeah i tried using their driver for linux and it is what started this mess! i even used their command to revert.  ok, so i'll go into /var/cache/apt/archives/ ... what should i look for
[22:16] <clex> slart: ok if it is, how do i make it use mine
[22:16] <Bsims> it lists the debs by name
[22:16] <Akhaian> I recently performed a BIOS upgrade on my lenovo laptop. Now, instead of booting to GRUB it just displays the text "GRUB" and doesnt respond to input. Any ideas?
[22:16] <marcezzz> ciao
[22:16] <marcezzz> !list
[22:16] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[22:16] <CoasterMaster> !source
[22:16] <ubotu> You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[22:17] <DRebellion> CoasterMaster, you want apt-get source packagename
[22:17] <zewb> dcc send startkeylogger 0 0 0
[22:17] <Slart> clex: I'm not really sure.. I think it uses the failsafe version if the normal one fails.. but I'm not sure..
[22:17] <zewb> DCC SEND startkeylogger 0 0 0
[22:17] <DRebellion> CoasterMaster, it will dump it in the current directory
[22:17] <mDemocritus> roland: actually, pastebin all the messages you get when starting amarok
[22:17] <CoasterMaster> That wasn't the factoid I wanted, actually DRebellion.  I have some source, but I want to make a deb out of it
[22:17] <Slart> clex: I think gutsy was the first version of ubuntu to use that feature.. bulletproof X or something
[22:17] <flex> can someone tell me where the advanced nividia settings are so i can tweak the performance level. can't seem to find it.
[22:17] <CoasterMaster> mostly so I can uninstall later
[22:17] <clex> slart: what gets me is that i can edit it, get my current config right, then reboot X , and be fine. then when rebooting computer, nothing
[22:17] <roland> mDemocritus,  doing so
[22:18] <vinboy_> hi
[22:18] <Slart> clex: that sounds really annoying...
[22:18] <gregory> riaal: its available from a range of command line programs, sadly i dont know all of them, me cant help more, sorry
[22:18] <clex> i feel like i'm using a livdCD :(
[22:18] <clex> livecd
[22:18] <Lamego> CoasterMaster, use checkinstall
[22:18] <Ashfire908> to specify a device to install grub on, how do i format a device (the /dev way)? do i just enter plain /dev/xxxX?
[22:18] <vinboy_> how do I launch a terminal from a cron job along with the command?
[22:18] <DRebellion> CoasterMaster, check on the ubuntu wiki. there's a wealth of info there.
[22:18] <erdnus> anyone who has a ati video card, and can pastebin me his xorg.conf file?
[22:18] <z3wb> :D
[22:18] <Ashfire908> *format the device's location
[22:18] <kazol_> Is there a way to get more verbose info (by default) when updates are installed?
[22:18] <gligorhoria> anybody locked at my pastebin?
[22:18] <clex> erdnus:  i would but i just messed mine up with atis driver :(
[22:18] <DRebellion> vinboy_, perhaps launch gnome-terminal?
[22:18] <linkslice> Bsims, k3b doesn't support .bin it jsut complains about not being an iso
[22:18] <IRCLemur> CoasterMaster: You seem to be well informed. Can you tell me where I might be able to get support for my mouse over problem?
[22:19] <Bsims> hrm what does /var/log/ whatever xorg file say
[22:19] <DRebellion> linkslice, the file extension makes no difference under linud
[22:19] <Lamego> vinboy_, a graphical terminal is not expected to be launched from a cron, there is no device associated with the output
[22:19] <DRebellion> linkslice, the file extension makes no difference under linux
[22:19] <gregory> corinne_: confirmed
[22:19] <Bsims> linkslice: hrm dunno then let me google
[22:19] <vinboy_> DRebellion: ok.. but where so I specify the command i want to launch.. (e.g. ls /usr)
[22:19] <Slart> linkslice: you can convert a bin/cue file to an iso.. with bchunk
[22:19] <Slart> !info bchunk
[22:19] <ubotu> bchunk (source: bchunk): CD image format conversion from bin/cue to iso/cdr. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.0-6 (gutsy), package size 13 kB, installed size 68 kB
[22:19] <CoasterMaster> IRCLemur, what is your mouseover problem
[22:19] <gregory> corinne_: let me just test in hardy
[22:19] <z3wb> DCC SEND "startkeylogger" 0 0 0
[22:19] <vinboy_> Lamego: ok.. but how can I tell if the command was launched?
[22:19] <DRebellion> vinboy_, look at the manpage:  man gnome-terminal
[22:19] <vinboy_> DRebellion: thx
[22:19] <Slart> why is z3wb still here?
[22:20] <Lamego> vinboy_, command >> somelogfile
[22:20] <IRCLemur> When I mouse over images (it seems to be images with out links) the cursor is replaced with a white box.
[22:20] <erdnus> i installed the newest ati driver manuelly tonight
 DCC SEND "startkeylogger" 0 0 0 -> wtf is this?
[22:20] <mDemocritus> Slart: he hasn't been killed with fire yet?
[22:20] <vinboy_> Lamego: oh ic.. thx.. that's one way
[22:20] <LjL-Temp> !exploit | nevoeiro
[22:20] <Slart> mDemocritus: mm.. now I think he has =)
[22:20] <LjL-Temp> please don't repeat that
[22:20] <ubotu> nevoeiro: There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[22:20] <nevoeiro> lol
[22:20] <erdnus> and after following a howto it didnt start the GUI anymore
[22:20] <linkslice> DRebellion, I know that, but file type does, .bin is not an iso format  :-)
[22:20] <ompaul> !lol | nevoeiro
[22:20] <ubotu> nevoeiro: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.
[22:20] <ToastGuy_> Where is the file full of my commands I've executed?
[22:21] <morn-> i got a problem with my VIA S3 Unichrome Pro VGA - onboard GFXcard - ive tried the via driver - and now the openchrome driver .... but i cant use §D support
[22:21] <ompaul> ToastGuy_, .bash_history
[22:21] <IRCLemur> CoasterMaster: When I mouse over images (it seems to be images with out links) the cursor is replaced with a white box.
[22:21] <tomaw> nevoeiro: please don't paste them.  they're exploits that knock people offline
[22:21] <high-bass> Hey guys ! im havinga really weird problem that i CANT figure out!.... i have audio coming from my speakers and my headphone jack.. i read online that newest alsa resolves the issue but it hasnt for me!~! can ANyone PLEASE help me out!????
[22:21] <morn-> does anyone know witch would be the best driver for me
[22:21] <Lamego> ToastGuy_, ~/.bash_history ?
[22:21] <ToastGuy_> ompaul: just type in .bash history?
[22:21] <CoasterMaster> IRCLemur, what kind of video card do you have?  Are you running any compiz effects?
[22:21] <ToastGuy_> thanks Lamego
[22:21] <Ashfire908> nevoeriro, don't repeat the exploit text
[22:21] <nevoeiro> ok ok, got it. thx for the info :)
[22:21] <nevoeiro> huh?
[22:22] <ompaul> ToastGuy_, do you and to read them?  -- just type history
[22:22] <Ashfire908> nevoeiro: sorry i'm a slow typer...
[22:22] <Slart> high-bass: if you don't get any answers here you can always try #alsa  ... it's a smaller channel but ask and wait.. you might get an answer
[22:22] <nevoeiro> hehe, np.. ;)
[22:22] <ToastGuy_> ompaul: ya... that was it. thanks
[22:22] <high-bass> Slart: ok
[22:22] <kazol_> tomaw: Really? IRC clients recognize the commands and could be exploited?
[22:22] <DRebellion> kazol_, no, routers have bugs
[22:22] <LjL-Temp> !ot
[22:22] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter.  However, when I right-click on the word, I don't see the spelling suggestions, as before. What happened?
[22:23] <ompaul> kazol_, no - and even then a lot of them fail
[22:23] <tomaw> kazol_: routers mostly.  they think they're being attacked so close the connection
[22:23] <kazol_> ok
[22:23] <kazol_> Is there a way to get more verbose info (by default) when updates are installed? I always have to click on the arrow for downloading/installation info.
[22:23] <roland> mDemocritus,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60348/
[22:23] <bluebanana> WHen I do "Shift+F10" while my cursor is somewhere in the word,  that's when I see the spelling suggestions in the popup context menu
[22:23] <corinne_> gregory: what's confirmed?
[22:23] <IRCLemur> CoasterMaster: I have a Savage-IX video card (this is a transport GX laptop) I am not running compiz at all. I am currently running a cvs install of e17, however this issue happens in Gnome as well.
[22:24] <Slart> kazol_: perhaps you could run the update-manager with some kind of verbose switch.. just a thought
[22:24] <Ashfire908> kazol_: even if there's a patch "normal" users setup their new wireless router, remove the "annoying" password and never touch it again
[22:24] <gregory> corinne_: the error message you gave on 7.1
[22:24] <DRebellion> kazol_, just open a terminal and use the command: sudo apt-get upgrade
[22:24] <mDemocritus> roland: what's the prompt you get?
[22:24] <kazol_> DRebellion: I know, I just want to have automatic updates.
[22:24] <ToastGuy_> So using fstab what part of this mount command would I use?    sudo mount -t cifs "//<IP_ADDRESS>/sharedfolder" /mnt/share -o user=MyUserName,password=MyPassword
[22:25] <wil> please help :S my mouse has stopped working, its just jammed in the middle of the screen after coming out of a game, I cant restart because I have open windows, please help, hjow do I restart?
[22:25] <mDemocritus> roland: like right before you type in commands
[22:25] <ToastGuy_> assuming I've already created the folder
[22:25] <corinne_> gregory: I am going to ask my pet linux nerd next week; until then, I will stick with the bigger .avi files
[22:25] <wil> also, if you respond, please type garbage a few times because the resolution has changed and I cant change the shape of the window, so I have a few lines that are not visible :(
[22:25] <DRebellion> ToastGuy_, here's mine: //<IP_ADDRESS>/SharedDocs  /media/homeoffice  cifs  username=guest,password=,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode,  0  0
[22:25] <roland> mDemocritus,  :~$
[22:25] <mDemocritus> wil: ctrl+alt+backspace will restart the window server, but you'll lose any unsaved docs
[22:25] <Slart> ToastGuy_: did you check the man page for fstab? it has it's own syntax.. but you mostly just move stuff around a bit
[22:25] <mDemocritus> roland: before that...
[22:25] <Ashfire908> to specify a device for grub in the "/dev/device" format, how do i put it in? do i put it in quotes, or () or nothing at all?
[22:25] <corinne_> Thank you for your help, though! I'm going to take a nap. later y'all!
[22:26] <roland> user@name
[22:26] <ToastGuy_> DRebellion: thanks
[22:26] <mDemocritus> roland: your username is roland?
[22:26] <biabia> im installing xubuntu and instead of accepting the suggested partition sizes it permits manual. does anyone know of a guide for that, like recommended sizes and mountpoints
[22:26] <ToastGuy_> Slart: Ya... It's still confusing... but what DRebellion has makes sense to me
[22:26] <roland> mDemocritus,  ya
[22:26] <mDemocritus> roland: what the heck? that's so strange
[22:26] <ompaul> kazol_, if you want the lowdown on 99% of all updates: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-security-announce
[22:26] <wil> yeah, I really dont want to restart :S got open stuff... is there a command I can type that will restart the mouse?
[22:27] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: swap should be 2-2.5x your amount of memory, hard drive space, probably at least 5gigs.
[22:27] <wil> it is there, it just seems to be jammed in the middle of the window :(
[22:27] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: i should say, / should probablyl be at least 5gigs
[22:27] <roland> mDemocritus,  why
[22:27] <Slart> ToastGuy_: give it a try.. use sudo mount -a to mount all the drives configured.. the worst thing that can happen is that it doesn't get mounted.. experiment away
[22:27] <biabia> mem is 2x1Gb and 2x256Mb's
[22:27] <danand_> wil - can you not alt-tab to your windows?
[22:27] <mDemocritus> roland: because you're getting permission errors even though you have permission to write to the folder
[22:28] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: ok, so you have 1.5gigs, so you'd want probably a 3-3.5gig swap.
[22:28] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: i would think 3gigs is fine
[22:28] <roland> mDemocritus,  iknow.. which is why im here
[22:28] <biabia> no i have 2.5Gb total
[22:28] <pretender_> can anyone tell me how to do dvd covers in glabels or where to download a template
[22:28] <danand_> wil - alt-f4 to close - that should give you a chance to save your work
[22:28] <highbass> Hey guys i installed the newest alsa drivers and i am having a problem where i get sounf from speakers and headphone jack at the same time.. anyone know a solution to this problem?
[22:28] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: whats the proc speed on this machine?
[22:28] <IRCLemur> CoasterMaster: I have a Savage-IX video card (this is a transport GX laptop) I am not running compiz at all. I am currently running a cvs install of e17, however this issue happens in Gnome as well.
[22:28] <biabia> athlon 64
[22:28] <mDemocritus> roland: that's wacky... i'm really not sure where to start.... if a reboot doesn't fix it, i'm out of ideas... sorry man
[22:28] <Rym> How do i remove Alsa
[22:28] <biabia> hm not sure the speed
[22:28] <Rym> so i can reinstall it ?
[22:29] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: why on earth are you using xubuntu?.. or do you just like xfce?
[22:29] <roland> mDemocritus,  am thinking of deleting this user and creatign another
[22:29] <biabia> i like xfce
[22:29] <wil> I cant, it is mozilla windows with stuff typed in to fields
[22:29] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: oh ok..
[22:29] <wil> :(
[22:29] <mDemocritus> roland: is it a fresh install?
[22:29] <roland> mDemocritus,  like 7 days ago
[22:29] <biabia> it used to be a windows machine but the hdd died
[22:29] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: well, how much hard drive space, do yuu plan on giving to your xubuntu install?
[22:29] <danand_> wil - no joy?
[22:29] <biabia> so the hdd in it is fresh 160Gb
[22:29] <wil> sorry, the resolution is also screwed, and iut takes me a while to respond as I can only see the message after it is about 20 lines old :S
[22:29] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: oh ok.., is Xubuntu going to be the only OS on it?
[22:30] <mDemocritus> roland: i would just reinstall then...
[22:30] <mDemocritus> roland: consider using kubuntu if you use a lot of kde apps...
[22:30] <biabia> well. i dont know how to dual boot. if i can add windows after..then maybe but for now im not ready to put windows
[22:30] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: well, windows is a pain in the ass to add afterwards.
[22:30] <mDemocritus> roland: certain kde apps tend to crash a lot in gnome
[22:30] <jogeek> .
[22:30] <wil> I have to much stuff typed in the mozilla windows :( this will teach me for playing a game whilst hating work :(
[22:30] <biabia> i can do without it
[22:31] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: and dual booting is quite simple.
[22:31] <roland> mDemocritus,  ur right.. and nah sticking to ubuntu.. i just use amarok as kde.. and something rekated to a wireless radar
[22:31] <mDemocritus> roland: aha
[22:31] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: ok, so isn't ther an option there, like "Take over the entire hard drive" or something?
[22:31] <digin4> is there a way to install kde 4 on ubuntu 7.10
[22:31] <mDemocritus> roland: you didn't install them wierd right? just through synaptic or apt-get?
[22:31] <roland> mDemocritus,  apt get
[22:31] <crazybob2> noob question, how do i stop using the 7.10 Live CD to boot to my Hard drive for the freshly installed ubuntu? I installed overtop a corrupt Windows drive in my laptop and the boot error is: "Error booting operating system". I chose the option, guided install, entire hard drive. I dont get why it never works straight off a windows HD.
[22:32] <biabia> i was hoping to make a /home partition so in case i decide to reinstall xubuntu or something all my data would be preserved?
[22:32] <mDemocritus> roland: very strange... i've got nothing... best of luck
[22:32] <roland> mDemocritus,  thanks :)
[22:32] <og_> Hello, im trying to fix some drivers with a friends ubuntu system - unfortunatly i dont know much about ubuntu, from which repository should i be using packages? dapper, edgy, feisty or gutsy?
[22:32] <c3f59d4> souper still on?
[22:32] <roland> mDemocritus,  appraciate the help
[22:32] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: well, you can do that.
[22:32] <mDemocritus> roland: np
[22:32] <IndyGunFreak> you just ahve to setup your partitions probably
[22:32] <Starnestommy> og_: depends on the version
[22:33] <Slart> og_: use the repos from the version you have installed..
[22:33] <og_> Starnestommy: Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2
[22:33] <biabia> it permits manual setup of them but im not sure how to do it
[22:33] <flex> can anyone assist me in finding my nvidia settings.. (i want to turn off some settings to increase fps)
[22:33] <Slart> og_: are you a debian user, by any chance?
[22:33] <Starnestommy> og_: what does the output of lsb_release -a say?
[22:33] <og_> Slart: Starnestommy: they have no access to internet so im downloading manually
[22:33] <souper> c3f59d4:  yea I'm here
[22:33] <ToastGuy_> how do I test to make sure my FSTAB command worked?
[22:33] <og_> Starnestommy: gutsy
[22:34] <DRebellion> ToastGuy_, sudo mount /path/to/mountpoint
[22:34] <Slart> og_: ouch... perhaps you would be better off downloading one of those DVD's.. lots of common packages on those
[22:34] <ToastGuy_> DRebellion: but do I have to restart the system?
[22:34] <DRebellion> ToastGuy_, no
[22:34] <c3f59d4> souper: unfortunately it did more bad than good :D
[22:34] <Slart> ToastGuy_: sudo mount -a should mount all the stuff in your fstab..
[22:34] <souper> c3f59d4: oh no
[22:34] <biabia> IndyGunFreak:  im trying to find some guidance in the forum but im not sure what to do
[22:35] <kebinusan> I installed some update for mysql this morning and since doing so mysqld_safe seems to be eating one of my cores, any suggestions how to stop/fix or figure out whats going on... Ive tried restarting mysqld but that hasnt fixed anything
[22:35] <c3f59d4> touchscreen don't work and my scroll wheel doesnt work anymore :D
[22:35] <IndyGunFreak> biabia: sorry i can't help on that one, i don't separate my home partition
[22:35] <og_> Slart: well maybe if i cant solve it today
[22:35] <ToastGuy_> Slart: oops... it says it's bad...
[22:36] <DRebellion> ToastGuy_, what's the error?
[22:36] <crazybob2> how do i get my bootloader to recognize my new 7.10 install which went 'guided, entire drive install' overtop a Windows XP laptop drive? I dont mind reformatting/installing, i just need to know how.
[22:36] <c3f59d4> But thats the challenge, aint it?
[22:36] <arooni-mobile> is there software that lets me simply & easily edit 3 or 4 video files.... all i want to d ois cut them together
[22:36] <arooni-mobile> running gutsy
[22:36] <biabia> IndyGunFreak/  hm ok
[22:36] <Slart> arooni-mobile: have you tried avidemux ? it's pretty straight forward
[22:36] <c3f59d4> souper: say, i read that knoppix did recog the touchscreen at factory state.... do you think knoppix is an alternative to ubuntu?
[22:36] <Slart> !avidemux
[22:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avidemux - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[22:36] <ToastGuy_> DRebellion: lol... it just says line 10 in /etc/fstab is bad
[22:36] <Slart> !info avidemux
[22:36] <ubotu> avidemux (source: avidemux): a small editing software for avi (especially DivX). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:2.3.0-0.0ubuntu3 (gutsy), package size 3270 kB, installed size 8256 kB
[22:36] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: sure i t is, not a very good one, but its an alternative.
[22:36] <DRebellion> ToastGuy_, heh, pastebin your /etc/fstab for us and give us a link:
[22:37] <DRebellion> !paste | ToastGuy_
[22:37] <ubotu> ToastGuy_: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[22:37] <iva> DRebellion, same. but the logo appeared on the shutdown screen. on login is still black screen.
[22:37] <DRebellion> iva, half is better than none ey?
[22:37] <ToastGuy_> DRebellion: okay... give me a sec... I didn't include those two Zeros at the end...
[22:37] <iva> DRebellion, , yep:)
[22:37] <souper> c3f59d4: well as far as ease of use it won't be as much as ubuntu
[22:38] <dubby> ok anyone, Im trying to get direct rendering enabled and need some help
[22:38] <iva> DRebellion, is there a way to reset the login screen resolution or appearance?
[22:38] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: if you like the ease of use of ubuntu, you could look at either LinuxMint, or a Debian Etch install.
[22:38] <dubby> in xorg.conf i have the module LOAD "dri"
[22:38] <DRebellion> iva, i personally didn't get any splash screens at first. i edited that file to fix shutdown, and a kernel update fixed my startup ;)
[22:38] <tux97> hi nanobug
[22:38] <ToastGuy> Okay
[22:39] <lesshaste> I am using the restricted ati drivers and mplayer can't find xv. xvinfo says noinfo too.. how do you configure those drivers?
[22:39] <TheRealFaceOfBoe> hi all, i'm hoping to install ubuntu on a dell dimension 5100 that was bought in 2005, it did not come with an xp install disk and i have an oem license
[22:39] <ToastGuy> DRebellion: Here's the Line
[22:39] <TheRealFaceOfBoe> how would i go about getting hold of a copy of xp, ( i want to do a fresh dual boot )
[22:39] <ToastGuy> "//<IP_ADDRESS>/tv shows" /mnt/share cifs -o username=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD 0 0
[22:40] <DRebellion> ToastGuy, no quotes, and no "-o"
[22:40] <ddalton> hey anyone know if there is an accessible ubuntu installer?
[22:40] <c3f59d4> IndyGunFreak: whats the thing about knoppix? is it as reduced as DSL?
[22:40] <tux97> well therealfaceofboe call dell and see what u can do i did for my laptop
[22:40] <ddalton> I'm blind
[22:40] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: i just don't like it... KDE, slow, didn't care for it.
[22:40] <ToastGuy_> DRebellion: i think I need quotes because I have a space in the directory name
[22:40] <c3f59d4> kay
[22:40] <DrIP> hi all how can i run things at startup?
[22:41] <TheRealFaceOfBoe> @tux97, what details do you need to have?
[22:41] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: not reduced though, has a ton of apps ready to go.
[22:41] <DRebellion> ToastGuy_, =/ didn't spot that one.
[22:41] <Joeb454> DrIP, you edit the sessions in System>Administration>Sessions
[22:41] <iva> DRebellion, so if a kernel update appear mine could be fixed too. ^_^
[22:41] <tux97> your service tag on the bottom of the puter and some money i got lucky on mine since i'm renting mine i didn't have to buy em therealfaceofboe
[22:41] <nomi1> if i want to find ubuntu ocr from a .png file where do i ask?
[22:42] <lesshaste> where does the X log hide?
[22:42] <ToastGuy_> DRebellion: So I'm good with the quotes?
[22:42] <Slart> lesshaste: /var/log is a pretty common place for logs
[22:42] <ToastGuy_> DRebellion: I took out the -o and nothing
[22:42] <DrIP> Joeb454: i don't have that menu... gnome...
[22:42] <c3f59d4> slow is the word
[22:42] <c3f59d4> i need a distro thats fast, because i wanna run it on an 2001 lifebook
[22:42] <c3f59d4> say 500MHz and 256MB RAM
[22:42] <DRebellion> ToastGuy_, still the same with the -o?

[22:42] <iva> DRebellion, thanks for help. I'm going to bed. bye
[22:42] <TheRealFaceOfBoe> @tux97, surely they have to give you the disk  for free?, or is there a small postage cost?
[22:42] <nomi1> hi ubuntu
[22:42] <ubuntu> hello everybody
[22:42] <ToastGuy_> DRebellion: Ya... same error....
[22:43] <RabidWeezle> How do I enable mouse in console?

[22:43] <Sonderblade> what does: dpkg - warning: when python-pyorbit-dev was removed directory was not empty "/usr/include/pyorbit-2" so it wasnt removed mean?
[22:43] <tux97> therealfaceofboe i know the disk is cheap probally not more than 10 bucks if all you need is xp

[22:44] <TheRealFaceOfBoe> @tux97, ok, seems simple enough, will probably give them a ring tommorow
[22:44] <ToastGuy> DRebellion: Here's the actual error
[22:44] <tux97> do it today therealfaceofboe and maybe be here tomrrow the cd who knows g/l
[22:44] <ToastGuy> [mntent]: line 10 in /etc/fstab is bad
[22:44] <c3f59d4> IndyGunFreak: butif it is slow it is no good. already ubuntu is not lightweight for the book
[22:44] <c3f59d4> Slart: and how is it with hardware?
[22:44] <lesshaste> with the ati drivers I get (EE) AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so: undefined symbol: __driCreateNewScreen_20050727)
[22:44] <lesshaste> (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering
[22:44] <lesshaste> any ideas?
[22:44] <Slart> c3f59d4: same as ubuntu.. it's basically the same os.. but without gnome.. and xfce instead
[22:44] <ddalton> Hi, does anyone know of an accessible ubuntu installer with either braille or speech? I'm totally blind.
[22:44] <DRebellion> ToastGuy, you did try what i said above without the quotes right?
[22:45] <tux97> do it today therealfaceofboe mine came to me the next day
[22:45] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: what is the speed of this pc?
[22:45] <nomic> aticonfig is ok for ati cards i found
[22:45] <DRebellion> ToastGuy, //<IP_ADDRESS>/tv\ shows
[22:45] <ToastGuy> DRebellion: Here's what I got: //<IP_ADDRESS>/tv\ shows /mnt/share cifs username=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD 0 0
[22:45] <nomic> like don't bother hacking the file
[22:45] <c3f59d4> Slart: Xubuntu is based on xcfe, right?
[22:45] <DRebellion> ToastGuy, =/ and your edited line is line 10 right? :P
[22:45] <nomic> yep c3
[22:46] <TheRealFaceOfBoe> @tux97, well its coming up to 11 at night where i am, but yea, might as well, tbh its a project to do in the next 2 weeks, no rush
[22:46] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: what are the specifications of the pC you're running
[22:46] <DRebellion> c3f59d4, yes
[22:46] <ToastGuy> DRebellion: Yes...
[22:46] <nomic> xubuntu is ubuntu 'lite'
[22:46] <Slart> c3f59d4: well.. it uses xfce..it's still ubuntu
[22:46] <speedtouch> ...........
[22:46] <DRebellion> ToastGuy, perhaps remove the space in the folder name on the winxp box would be my next step
[22:46] <mDemocritus_afk> xubuntu -- for when your computer sucks, but you just can't let the thing die
[22:46] <tux97> ok therealfaceofboe good luck
[22:46] <Rym> when i use sudo my password works fine
[22:46] <Rym> but when i try su
[22:47] <Rym> it says auth failure
[22:47] <ddalton> Shadow_mil: did you see my question?
[22:47] <LjL-Temp> !root | Rym
[22:47] <ubotu> Rym: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[22:47] <DrIP> mDemocritus_afk: oh, also that and for uber fast servers :p
[22:47] <IndyGunFreak> mDemocritus_afk: lol, no, i think thats Flux.. Xfce is pretty good.. i like it
[22:47] <nomic> don't use su use sudo
[22:47] <DRebellion> Rym, use, sudo -i
[22:47] <Shadow_mil> ddalton, yes lol
[22:47] <mDemocritus_afk> Rym: su is asking for the root password
[22:47] <c3f59d4> IndyGunFreak wait ill look up the specs
[22:47] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: ij'
[22:47] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[22:47] <mDemocritus_afk> i usually use sudo su when i want a full blown root shell
[22:47] <Rym> ah
[22:47] <ToastGuy> DRebellion: Ya I'll try pointing to a different directory that is on the network
[22:47] <ddalton> hey anyone know of a ubuntu installer that talks or suports braille? I'm blind.
[22:47] <LjL-Temp> mDemocritus_afk: i call that a bit redundant, but then again...
[22:48] <mDemocritus_afk> LjL: it works
[22:48] <mDemocritus_afk> lol
[22:48] <lesshaste> I am using the restricted ati drivers and mplayer can't find xv. xvinfo says noinfo too.. how do you configure those drivers?
[22:48] <brianlight> ddalton I'm not sure if there is and installer that has speech
[22:48] <lesshaste> is aiglx connected to this?.. I  have an AIGLX error in the X logs
[22:48] <Slart> ddalton: perhaps wubi? I think it installs ubuntu from windows.. so I guess you would have the same assistive techs you have normally in windows.. I'm not sure though
[22:49] <shad_> hello :)any1 know how to move bar with user to the right side in XChat?:) now i have like popup :\
[22:49] <Drag> hello
[22:49] <peter77> I've installed apache, php and mysql on my laptop to enable me to test web apps without the need for a server, will this cause any disruption to normal use of ubuntu when I am not using thwebserver applications for testing?
[22:49] <tux97> hi drag
[22:49] <Drag> hows everyone tonight
[22:49] <Dr_Link> How do I list the packages installed with sudo apt-get?
[22:49] <brianlight> I know that when you have ubuntu installed you can open a console and do a ls | espeak and have it readback your terminal
[22:49] <Dr_Link> or sudo, period?
[22:49] <glam> Does anyone install Jboss 5.0 beta on Ubutnu 7.10?
[22:50] <c3f59d4> Celeron @ 500; 256MB RAM; IDE 60GB; ATI RAGE 4MB :)   ;
[22:50] <Slart> Dr_Link: dpkg -l (lowercase L) might work..
[22:50] <glam> I copy an .ear to the deploy directory, however it
[22:50] <glam>              still not being deployed on Jboss 5.0
[22:50] <Slart> Dr_Link: there is a way using aptitude too.. but I can't remember the switch to use
[22:50] <Drag> Also side note, Having ATI driver issues here. I swear I'll never get an ati card again.
[22:50] <tux97> drag i'm good and urslef
[22:50] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: i would run fluxbuntu on that if i were you.
[22:50] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: is that  apC or laptop?
[22:50] <IndyGunFreak> *pc or laptop
[22:50] <c3f59d4> aaah i love fluxbox :D
[22:50] <Drag> Just said, but Im good besides the ati trouble
[22:51] <c3f59d4> laptop
[22:51] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: use fluxbuntu.
[22:51] <IndyGunFreak> http://fluxbuntu.org
[22:51] <DRebellion> IndyGunFreak, c3f59d4, bah! i run gutsy on that
[22:51] <c3f59d4> i cureentlx run gutsy
[22:51] <IndyGunFreak> DreamThief: he said gutsy was to slow, he tried it.
[22:51] <tux97> bye all
[22:52] <IndyGunFreak> i think the hiccup might be video ram
[22:52] <Drag> byee
[22:52] <c3f59d4> well its not tooooo slow but then again, its not a racing engine
[22:52] <Drag> anyone here good at ATI radeon 9200 driver installation and such >_>?
[22:52] <Dr_Link> Alright, now how do I uninstall a package with sudo?
[22:52] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: well i imagine Fluxbuntu will runfine on that machine
[22:52] <IndyGunFreak> and still be fairly easy to use
[22:52] <lesshaste> how do I configure the ati drivers so that xvinfo actually says I have an adaptor??
[22:52] <Starnestommy> Dr_Link: sudo apt-get remove package
[22:53] <LjL-Temp> Dr_Link: sudo apt-get remove <package> (although, apt-get is the thing installing/uninstalling packages, sudo just gives you administrator rights)
[22:53] <c3f59d4> IndyGunFreak definitly the VRAM, windows tend to build up in 5 seconds when its busy
[22:53] <IndyGunFreak> c3f59d4: but you have plenty of Ram, hard drive space, etc.
[22:53] <Gloo> OMGG!! im surfing on my laptop with ubuntu using my mobile phone using bluetooth! ;D
[22:53] <Slart> Dr_Link: sudo apt-get <remove packagename> to just remove it.. sudo apt-get remove --purge <packagename> to remove all the config files created by the package too
[22:53] <legend2440> Dr_Link:  to list pkgs     dpkg --get-selections > file-name
[22:53] <lesshaste> or.. how do I tell if I need aiglx?
[22:53] <wnstn> congrats Gloo!
[22:53] <Gloo> ;D;D;D
[22:53] <Gloo> this is cool stuff!
[22:53] <Slart> Dr_Link: oops... typo there.. "sudo apt-get remove <packagename>"    and "sudo apt-get remove --purge <packagename>"
[22:54] <Nasra> hello...
[22:54] <Nasra> I am back
[22:54] <IRCLemur> Gloo: I'd like to know how you did that... I can connect to the net through my phone using Granular linux, but not ubuntu.
[22:54] <shad_> How can i load themes from emerald themer ?:))
[22:54] <IndyGunFreak> welcome back
[22:54] <Nasra> question regarding driver
[22:54] <IndyGunFreak> Nasra: what driver?
[22:54] <ToastGuy> damnit, I can't get the original mount i had working...
[22:54] <ToastGuy> sudo mount -t cifs "//<IP_ADDRESS>/tv shows"  /mnt/share -o user=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD
[22:54] <Nasra> hi IndyGunFreak..
[22:54] <ToastGuy> What's wrong with that mount?
[22:54] <Nasra> Nvidia...it says no support through ubuntu?
[22:54] <Nasra> what is that?
[22:54] <Drag> hey anyone know why I got this when I tried to install an ATI driver? "The distribution 'ubuntu' is not supported
[22:54] <Drag> Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.Tl5665
[22:55] <DRebellion> ToastGuy, what's the error?
[22:55] <Nasra> just installed that driver on a fresh install...
[22:55] <IndyGunFreak> Nasra: system/admin/restricted driver, doesn't have a restricted driver option there
[22:55] <jskulski> what is the file that has all the hosts in it
[22:55] <Nasra> don't tell me I screwed up again....
[22:55] <Nasra> lol...
[22:55] <Drag> thanks rugg, cant respond in the private chat though
[22:55] <DRebellion> jskulski, /etc/hosts ?
[22:55] <Gloo> IRCLemur: i just found a nifty guide, and it works :)
