[03:19] <billy> theTrav: ok.  now try updating via a terminal.  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[03:19] <theTrav> but what about the add/Remove window?
[03:20] <theTrav> and I wasn't updating, I was installing a new app (unless updating is the new word for that?)
[03:20] <billy> theTrav: i thought you said you killed it.
[03:20] <theTrav> nope
[03:20] <theTrav> I hit the close button
[03:20] <theTrav> little x in the top right of the window
[03:20] <theTrav> (spot the recent MS user)
[03:20] <theTrav> is that killing it?
[03:20] <theTrav> or is that something else?
 that's package by package though - or during beta are there just heaps of incremental changes?
[03:21] <billy> theTrav: yeah.  you closed the program.  that's killing it.
[03:21] <sorcerer> iam trying to install the nvidia drivers for my card how do i find out whcih module i need to select for my kernal .. ?
[03:21] <dyrne> sorcerer: you should'nt have to worry about that if youre installing nvidia-glx just install the packages.  follow this step by step https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:21] <theTrav> well, ok that's cool but it's not getting rid of the window or appearing to change anything
[03:21] <yellow_chicken> Pelo: i installed gxine and it works thanks
[03:22] <Pelo> yellow_chicken,  good for you
[03:22] <sorcerer> yeah iam the step where they telling me to choose the right module for my kernal or somerthing wont work
[03:22] <dyrne> !envy | sorcerer this is also an alternative though ive never used it
[03:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about envy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:22] <VoV> http://www.vipip.ru/index.php?refid=79362
[03:22] <theTrav> maybe if I try logging off
[03:23] <yellow_chicken> Pelo: and i also installed some plugins too
[03:23] <shriphani> theTrav, ps aux | grep synaptic ?
[03:23] <shriphani> gawd

[03:25] <_Neil> Will updating edgy eft to fiesty give as cleaner system as installing fiesty freshly?
[03:25] <_Neil> If you see what I mean..
[03:25] <user____> obviously no
[03:26] <user____> i mean it won't be cleaner
[03:26] <shriphani> i wouldnt cherish a reinstallation though...
[03:26] <CheesyJedi> hey guys
[03:26] <CheesyJedi> I am desperate for some help
[03:26] <_Neil> I mean will it be as clean/tidy?
[03:26] <_Neil> I've had to patch certain things manually and mess around to make ubuntu work properly for me
[03:26] <safer> I just did clean installation of Feisty and I'm having trouble with fglrx -- Help Me Please!
[03:26] <CheesyJedi> I recently installed ubuntu on my Dell Inspiron 1150
[03:27] <_Neil> So im thinking i might be better reinstalling when fiesty is out
[03:27] <billy> _Neil: from what I understand,a clean install is always the best.  but my upgrade has been really clean so far.
[03:27] <_Neil> billy: cool
[03:27] <ttf> hi all.. can anybody tell me if I can install (k)ubuntu (edgy) on an external hdd, remove it plug it into another computer, reconfigure grub and boot it?
[03:27] <delight> got a question regarding the nvidia drivers on feisty
[03:27] <CheesyJedi> I read a bunch of reports saying that the wifi doesn't work out of the box but that you can make it work using ndiswrapper
[03:27] <CheesyJedi> but I can't get it to work!
[03:27] <CheesyJedi> I need some help
[03:27] <billy> !feisty | delight
[03:27] <ubotu> delight: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007. Beta is out! http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta Schedule: !schedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[03:27] <visualdeception> i got my wifi working out of the box
[03:28]
 try installing network-manager
[03:28]
 I had the same problem
[03:28] <archwolf> I had some wireless trouble with my card and feisty
[03:29] <CheesyJedi> there are no linux drivers for my network card, so I'm trying to use ndiswrapper to wrap my windows drivers and get them working
[03:29] <archwolf> i figure when final comes out it'll work
[03:29] <archwolf> so my wireless-using server runs edgy LTS for now 8)
[03:29] <twiztr> How do I configure Wine, to set it to Win98 or whatever?
[03:29] <archwolf> worked perfectly
[03:29] <sorcerer> hey guys if my installtion of my video card goes wrong how can i fiix it ?
[03:29] <archwolf> twiztr: sudo apt-get intstall wine, then "winecfg"
[03:29] <sorcerer> like can i restore it like in windows?
[03:29] <CheesyJedi> has anyone here had any experience with ndiswrapper?
[03:29] <user____> how do i uninstall wine so that when i will reinstall i won't get the same config files?
[03:30] <archwolf> sudo apt-get remove wine <-- I think
[03:30] <shriphani> then purge too i suppose
[03:30] <billy> user____: throw a --purge after the remove.
[03:30] <OpenTokix> apt-get remove --purge whine ?
[03:30] <reep> CheesyJedi: BR suggested installing network-manager, I think he was answering you
[03:30] <OpenTokix> plz plz =)
[03:30] <user____> i tried still config remaines
[03:30] <user____> ok
[03:30] <ranf> user____, _your_ configs are in your home dir
[03:30] <visualdeception> CheesyJedi have you tried the ndiswrapper forum? see if anyone else has had problems with that card....http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/forums/
[03:31] <archwolf> reep: I actually heard that using network-manager with wireless cards in feisty causes the problem to be worse.  :o
[03:31] <archwolf> The forums i read about my card told me to uninstall n-m
[03:31] <twiztr> Installing Resident Evil 3
[03:31] <archwolf> which ithought was weird, but oh well
[03:31] <archwolf> i never got it working
[03:31] <_Neil> What is the program that gives the big big icons in a little bar at the bottom of the scren?
[03:31] <archwolf> silly belkin card
[03:31] <_Neil> looks nice, see it in a lot of screenshots..
[03:31] <CheesyJedi> thanks visualdeception
[03:31] <user____> how do i start midnight commander?

[03:32] <elgilbert01> # hacker
[03:32] <user____> k
[03:33] <dyrne> sorcerer: yes. this is very easy with the packages. little differenct if you used nvidia.sh installer.
[03:33] <orbin> CheesyJedi: i'm using ndiswrapper.  i followed a howto in the ubuntu forums.  what wireless card does the dell use?
[03:33] <Trini_Man> hi everyone
[03:33] <CheesyJedi> it's a 1350
[03:33] <twiztr> Is there a command I can use to see what kind of video driver I am using?
[03:33] <shriphani> hmm how do i free 113 mb in /usr
[03:33] <Trini_Man> how do i renew my IP address
[03:34] <twiztr> Umm, rm /usr ?
[03:34] <Trini_Man> whats the command to renew my IP address
[03:34] <twiztr> heh
[03:34] <shriphani> twiztr, v funny
[03:34] <billy> Trini_Man: you'll have to contact your ISP.
[03:34] <CheesyJedi> orbin, I've followed tons of how-to's. It says that everthing is installed correctly but it's just not working
[03:34] <shriphani> and that wont work
[03:34] <elgilbert01> cual e s el canal en espanol
[03:34] <SlimeyPete> billy: he might mean via dhcp from his router ;)
[03:34] <billy> SlimeyPete: ah.  that's a different flavor potato chip.  :)
[03:34] <elgilbert01> cual es el caanal en espanol
[03:34] <NessieLiberation> is there any way to write files to an ntfs partition ?
[03:35] <orbin> CheesyJedi: how are you trying to connect?
[03:35] <Trini_Man> how to  resolve my ip address
[03:35] <archwolf> Trini_Man: dhclient3 <Interface>
[03:35] <erUSUL> Trini_Man: sudo ifdown <iface> && sudo ifup <iface>  (if you use some kind of dhcp or ppp)
[03:35] <dyrne> sorcerer: basically if you lose your graphical desktop you can alt-ctrl-f2 then login then 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'  look for the Driver   "nvidia" or nv line and change it to "vesa" which is a generic driver that is fine for 2d stuff. then either sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart or just reboot the comp
[03:35] <CheesyJedi> what do you mean orbin?
[03:35] <archwolf> my way works too :>
[03:35] <Trini_Man> thanks
[03:36] <SlimeyPete> NessieLiberation: yes, ntfs-3g
[03:36] <CharminTheMoose> question: The internet via my wireless usb adapter is painfully slow in ubuntu, but insanely fast on windows, what is happening?
[03:36] <CheapSuit> starting k9copy causes a HARD FREEZE of my machine, requiring reboot. What tha?
[03:36] <Trini_Man> how do i release and renew my IP address
[03:37] <SuperQ> Trini_Man: sudo ifdown ; sudo ifup
[03:37] <SuperQ> erm
[03:37] <SuperQ> Trini_Man: you need to specify an interface
[03:37] <ranf> elgilbert01, try #ubuntu-es
[03:37] <SlimeyPete> Trini_Man: run "dhclient3 eth0" where etho is the name of your network device
[03:37] <SuperQ> Trini_Man: sudo ifdown eth0
[03:37] <SlimeyPete> Trini_Man: or do the ifup/down thing
[03:37] <Lunar_Lamp> SuperQ, it's better to use "dhclient" than "ifdown/ifup" :-)
[03:37] <Trini_Man> ohhh ok thanks now fot it
[03:37] <SuperQ> Lunar_Lamp: why?
[03:37] <Trini_Man> thanks
[03:37] <Lunar_Lamp> (purely as it;s faster to type)
[03:38] <SuperQ> Lunar_Lamp: it's also not going to do a release
[03:38] <sorcerer> dyrne: hey iam downloading the pakage nvidia glx ... and its also downloading some other package .. along with it i hope its doing the right thing

[03:39] <VSpike> I want to store all my mail in a local imap server, and have it fetched from my ISP's pop3 servers and preferably spam filtered as well... I'm a bit overwhelmed by the choice of software available.  Can someone recommend a combination for me?
[03:40] <draycos> !nvidia > me
[03:40] <elgilbert01> hello
[03:40] <draycos> anyone?
[03:40] <orbin> CheesyJedi: http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/ ... what distro are you running though?
[03:40] <michup> hi, ive problem when i plugged in my camera first nothing happend, second it pop-up (flash) icon on my desktop then disappear, next a nautilus-window pops-up one by one with contents of camera
[03:41] <VSpike> I set up qmail in the past (long time ago though) with fetchmail. I see quite a few simple imap servers operate with maildir, which I think means I have to use qmail or one of the mailservers which uses maildir.  Is that right?
[03:41] <CheesyJedi> orbin: umm...ubuntu of course
[03:41] <michup> but the contents where wrong!
[03:41] <orbin> CheesyJedi: sorry. which release?
[03:41] <michup> its not the reall contents of my camera
[03:41] <leagris> VSpike, I use courier-imap and Postfix for delivery in maildirs
[03:41] <michup> when i clicked in window import image from camera
[03:42] <CheesyJedi> oh, 6.10
[03:42] <sorcerer> ok i gave rythbox .. the path where my music folder is .. buuut .. its says its a not audio stream /??
[03:42] <michup> message shows that i should check is it plugged in correct (it is)
[03:42] <michup> it was working till today
[03:42] <michup> no idea why
[03:42] <VSpike> leagris: that sounds like a sendible combination
[03:43] <leagris> VSpike, Qmail is a patch nightmare and I wouldn't recommand it except for specific unknown needs)
[03:43] <cellojoe> morning all
[03:43] <VSpike> leagris: do you need to use fetchmail as well?
[03:43] <VSpike> leagris: or do you get your mail sent in by smtp?
[03:43] <leagris> VSpike, not quite, I have a regular MX with domains
[03:43] <CharminTheMoose> question: The internet via my wireless usb adapter is painfully slow in ubuntu, but insanely fast on windows, what is happening?
[03:43] <assasukasse> hi everyone, i have a problem, when trying to send a bug the page that opens has this at the beginning http://home/foo%20 then the correct address..it doesn't work unless i manually delete the first part..how can i fix it
[03:43] <michup> An error occurred in the io-library ('Bad parameters'): Could not find USB device (vendor 0x4a9, product 0x30fa). Make sure this device is connected to the computer
[03:43] <linuxman> when speake spanish
[03:43] <linuxman> hello
[03:44] <linuxman> I NEED HELP
[03:44] <michup> "file:///media/usbdisk/DCIM/100DICAM": Cant find file
[03:44] <leagris> VSpike, the last time I looked about fetchmail there are several ways to interface it with Postifix, Either by SMTP forwarder or directly feeding the delivery agent
[03:44] <VSpike> leagris: Ah ok.  Makes sense.  My ISP can support that even without a domain, but I'm not convinced enough about my broadband + machine availability!  Fetchmail should work fine though, right?

[03:46] <erUSUL> !samba | ilreds
[03:46] <ubotu> ilreds: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[03:46] <JuJuBee> My users and groups module is not working.  Nothing on the user privileges tab.
[03:47] <ranf> "scp ip-address/path ."
[03:47] <sorcerer> wow ok whats the best i go on aim and msn alot
[03:47] <leagris> VSpike, I ran my own MX behind a DSL line with static IP during 2 yers until 6months ago I could rent a dedicated server for 24Euro/month (30USD)
[03:47] <ilreds> scp????
[03:47] <sorcerer> i want something neat looking and userfriendly
[03:47] <sorcerer> any suggestions lol
[03:47] <shamrock`> can anyone here play sound from two sources in ubuntu? If I play the radio via mplayer and then run a windowed game, for example, only the original sound plays.
[03:47] <savetheWorld> ilreds: scp is a secure copy program that requires an SSH service to be running on the remote system
[03:48] <Kalixa> hello ubuntu
[03:48] <savetheWorld> ilreds: The samba references will probably be more usefule to you in the long run, but SSH tools are good for ewhat they do as well.
[03:48] <ilreds> savetheWorld: i know scp, i can't use that with windows, i can't install anything on that server (winscp?)
[03:48] <JuJuBee> How can I reinstall users and groups module?
[03:49] <savetheWorld> ilreds: The samba references will probably be more usefule to you in the long run, but SSH tools are good for ewhat they do as well.
[03:49] <VSpike> leagris: This is a bit more detail stuff, and maybe i need to figure this out later, but I use two accounts, a work one and a personal one.  Currently I fetch both and use rules in my mail program to route them to different folders.  Can I do that routing in the maildir automatically with postfix?
[03:49] <savetheWorld> ilreds: did you see the samba info the bot sent to you?  (see above)
[03:49] <reep> just made an order for 3 free feisty CDs :D
[03:49] <JuJuBee> VSpike : have you looked at procmail?
[03:49] <dyrne> shamrock`: these games in wime?
[03:49] <sorcerer> is kopete only for KDE enviroment
[03:50] <ilreds> savetheWorld: yes, i'm reading the guide
[03:50] <Kalixa> Does anyone know here when Feisty +1's name is going to be released? I heard some time this week?
[03:50] <savetheWorld> good man.
[03:50] <JuJuBee> sorcerer : no, I use it under gnome as well
[03:50] <tld> leagris, which provider?
[03:50] <leagris> VSpike, the default Postfix provided delivery agent does not support user customized delivery. You can use procmail or maildrop for that
[03:50] <shamrock`> dyrne. any sound source. e.g One mplayer another from amarok.
[03:50] <Toma-> sorcerer: it uses KDE components, but you can run it on anything
[03:50] <Pici> Kalixa: No one knows yet, maybe except for Shuttleworth
[03:50] <reep> I bet it starts with a G
[03:51] <Toma-> sorcerer: if its for MSN only, aMSN is light years ahead over the other MSN clients
[03:51] <rEvolution27> how do I get a program to run at startup?

[03:51] <safer> Excuse me ---- I'm getting and error while building fglrx ---- can someone help me please???
[03:51] <leagris> tld, The DSL line was nerim then free.fr. The dedicated server now is at ovh.com
[03:51] <sorcerer> nice ill look into it and what about aim ?
[03:51] <tld> leagris, thanks. :)
[03:51] <joshjosh> rEvolution27: it's under sessions, system-preferences-sessions
[03:51] <rEvolution27> thanks
[03:51] <tld> leagris, (I'm always on the lookout for cheap dedicated)
[03:51] <Toma-> sorcerer: either gaim (for gnome) or kopete for KDE
[03:52] <VSpike> leagris: thanks.  I'll look into procmail
[03:52] <reep> sorcerer: or naim for console ^^
[03:52] <orbin> CheesyJedi: actually, i think it's part of the default install.  can you run nm-applet and see if an icon appears on one of your panels?
[03:52] <VSpike> Leagris: I also want to take my contact data out of my mail program.  Presumably I want to run an ldap server for that?
[03:52] <leagris> tld, I'm very happy with ovh since 6 years. Reliable, low rates and wide range of offers.
[03:52] <rEvolution27> does kxdocker work ok under gnome?

[03:53] <tld> leagris, prices starting at ?69 now though
[03:53] <sorcerer> reep:  cosole  what do you mean by that
[03:53] <tld> leagris, I might change to them if I can't find anything similarly prized closer to home (Norway)

[03:53] <leagris> VSpike, ldap look the most versatile way. It is the toughest as well though
[03:53] <reep> sorcerer: text-based
[03:53] <VSpike> leagris: what are the alternatives?
[03:53] <andy_> is there a katapult alternative for xfce?
[03:54] <ilreds> savetheWorld: that windows 2003 server doesn't share any folder
[03:54] <savetheWorld> ilreds: you need to make some arrangement with the admin of that system to have some access.
[03:55] <ilreds> damn, i think the same thing
[03:55] <leagris> VSpike, If you can enjoy webmails, contacts go well in plain text or SQL databases. If you want MUA addressbook connectivity, it's Ldap
[03:55] <savetheWorld> ilreds:  we can only help you with the technical side of things here. :-)
[03:55] <ilreds> thanks anyway
[03:55] <savetheWorld> ilreds: drop off a six pack of his favorite beverage, that may help

[03:59] <CharminTheMoose> question: The internet via my wireless usb adapter is painfully slow in ubuntu, but insanely fast on windows, what is happening?
[03:59] <Daverocks> CharminTheMoose: what adapter?
[03:59] <fulat2k> hi folks, any idea why fdisk says it can seek to /dev/sda?  it's a sata drive
[03:59] <leagris> You'r welcome VSpike

[04:01] <Daverocks> CharminTheMoose: using ndiswrapper?
[04:01] <fulat2k> reep: yups.  somehow even windows can't see it.  using diskpart, it just goes setup cannot access this disk.
[04:01] <CharminTheMoose> Daverocks, yup
[04:01] <xtlosx> hey guys, feisty fawn issue, after updates today, my gf's ipw3945 card is no longer seem by network manager, but it still sees the wired.. and ifconfig -a reveals that eth1 is still there, so it's alive.. what happened??
[04:01] <reep> fulat2k: "dmesg | less" in a terminal, do you see any errors regarding sda there?
[04:02] <turbostar> shoot^: got same problem like you before. i'd refomatting my hardisk with win98 cd
[04:02] <sorcerer> man .. i think my download in synaptic .. is soo slow
[04:02] <turbostar> then had no problem till finish
[04:02] <sorcerer> or the download even stalled does this always happen
[04:02] <shoot^> turbostar - what filesystem did you format with?
[04:02] <xtlosx> Network manager has worked great until today, it seems to have flaked out and decided not to work with the wifi card?
[04:03] <Wowbagger> 3D accelerator on Dell D820 with Nvidia card doesn't work.. Please help
[04:03] <ranf> cuco, please elaborate on :(
[04:03] <Daverocks> CharminTheMoose: hm, tried native broadcom drivers?

[04:04] <turbostar> fat32
[04:04] <sorcerer> hey gues if it says .. it failed to download one files how do i downoad it again
[04:04] <xtlosx> Anyone, network manager issues?
[04:04] <joshjosh> xtlosx: couldn't get it to work so i used knetworkmanager
[04:04] <CharminTheMoose> Daverocks: no. where would I get them?
[04:04] <ranf> cuco, create another?
[04:04] <sorcerer> coz this download said it will download other files .. along with the nvidia glx driver
[04:04] <cuco> ranf: that can be a good idea
[04:04] <xtlosx> hmm, damnit all
[04:04] <xtlosx> lol
[04:04] <xtlosx> network manager just doesn't even see it, worked earlier today though, before updates
[04:04] <dyrne> sorcerer: if youre on wifi and signal is weak maybe.  try 'gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list' and remove the country prefix us. or whatever from all the urls. then save and exit and 'sudo apt-get update' but all that will kill your download
[04:04] <xtlosx> were like.. 120 updates today.....
[04:04] <ranf> cuco, sure :)
[04:04] <Daverocks> xtlosx: did the device name change?
[04:05] <xtlosx> nope, device name is the same, it's still checked in the restricted manager as well
[04:05] <sorcerer> dyrne:  hey man wait could i mesage yoiu privatly if you dont mind
[04:05] <Daverocks> xtlosx: is everything right in iwconfig?
[04:05] <turbostar> any articles/tutorials related to kdevelop anyone?
[04:05] <sorcerer> coz all this is kinda greek to me
[04:05] <seravitae> hm, is there any way to watch real audio files in ubuntu?
[04:05] <seravitae> or .ram files
[04:05] <turbostar> yea
[04:05] <seravitae> i really dislike realaudio but i really wish to see this
[04:06] <sorcerer> and iam not using wi-fi iam on a 8 mb cable connection
[04:06] <turbostar> mplayer/vlc player can do
[04:06] <Daverocks> !codecs | seravitae

[04:06] <xtlosx> well it's obviouslly there, and njust not associated, but that's what nework manager is supposed to do.. the kill switch is on like it has been to use the wifi, function +wifi button, it's been working for two weeks no problems
[04:06] <xtlosx> just all of a sudden today after updates
[04:06] <Sakabatou> !wifi

[04:07] <seravitae> wonder if vlc does realplayer
[04:07] <Daverocks> seravitae: it does
[04:07] <sorcerer> this is what it gave me when i icancelled the download

[04:07] <sorcerer>
[04:07] <seravitae> oh sweet
[04:07] <Daverocks> xtlosx: is there some way to _not_ use networkmanager and do it manually?
[04:07] <seravitae> ill just plug it in there then
[04:08] <fulat2k> reep: dmesg doesn't output any errors. but when i do a fdisk /dev/sda, there's a message the number of cylinders for this disk is set to 30401.
[04:08] <xtlosx> umm, not that I want to use now
[04:08] <xtlosx> no
[04:08] <xtlosx> lol it's for my gf, want to make it as simple as possible...
[04:08] <Daverocks> sorcerer: you can't connect to security.ubuntu.com
[04:08] <Daverocks> xtlosx: lol..
[04:08] <xtlosx> now this is WEIRD.. in knetwork manager, when I enable wireless, it turns eth0 on, which is wired
[04:08] <seravitae> danm doesnt seeem to be working
[04:08] <xtlosx> wtf
[04:08] <sorcerer> Daverocks:  then how do i do this
[04:08] <xtlosx> the updates today fucked some stuff up bigtime
[04:08] <sorcerer> wow man .. this such a hassle or am i just stuuupid
[04:08] <Daverocks> xtlosx: ah, in the updates were there updates to networkmanager?
[04:08] <Dumahen> i need a virtual cd drive for my cd images what should i do ?
[04:09] <seravitae> [00000323]  main input error: no suitable access module for `rtsp://media.channel4.com/channel4/4learning/derrenbrown/dbphonebox.rm'
[04:09] <seravitae> i dont think vlc plays realmedia..
[04:09] <Daverocks> sorcerer: in a terminal do "telnet security.ubuntu.com 80", does it connect?
[04:09] <xtlosx> i do not believe so... it seems like it's not seeing the wifi card properly, but in lsmod the module is loaded
[04:09] <sorcerer> ok hold onm
[04:09] <reep> fulat2k: does fdisk exit after that, or does it let you view/change partitions?
[04:10] <Daverocks> seravitae: vlc may not be able to handle realplayer rtsp:// urls, i'm pretty sure mplayer and xine can though
[04:10] <xtlosx> modprobe ipw3945 doesn't fail, so the card is loaded
[04:10] <fulat2k> reep: it exits with Unable to seek on /dev/sda
[04:10] <Daverocks> xtlosx: that's why iwconfig works
[04:10] <reep> seravitae: the best way to play realmedia in ubuntu is with realplayer... don't worry, it doesn't look anything like the bloated windows version
[04:10] <Daverocks> seravitae: check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[04:10] <sorcerer> ok this what it said
[04:10] <sorcerer> telnet security.ubuntu.com 80
[04:10] <sorcerer> Trying <IP_ADDRESS>...
[04:10] <sorcerer> Connected to security.ubuntu.com.
[04:10] <sorcerer> Escape character is '^] '.
[04:10] <xtlosx> hmm, what is the ubuntu site to check the repos, see what changed from last night to today
[04:11] <Daverocks> sorcerer: ok, try not to paste in the channel
[04:11] <sorcerer> iam sorry
[04:11] <xtlosx> i want to try rolling it back maybe
[04:11] <sorcerer> my bad
[04:11] <Daverocks> sorcerer: you can press ctrl-]  to get out of that
[04:11] <babo_> Is there an online repo of the gnome icons that come with ubuntu by default ?
[04:11] <Daverocks> sorcerer: how long did it take to say it was connected? instant?
[04:11] <reep> fulat2k: hm... does the bios detect the disk properly?
[04:11] <fulat2k> reep: yups.  no probs with that.
[04:11] <sorcerer> yeah pretty fast
[04:12] <Daverocks> sorcerer: ok, just try synaptic again, it was probably just a bad time
[04:12] <xtlosx> anyone?
[04:12] <sorcerer> umm ok
[04:12] <xtlosx> something equivalent to a packages.gentoo.org ? where i can see all the packages
[04:12] <xtlosx> and roll back if necessary
[04:12] <sorcerer> were those the right files i was downloading for my nvidia 6600 ??
[04:12] <reep> fulat2k: hm, and neither windows nor linux manages to partition it? ... what chipset do you have?
[04:12] <xtlosx> packages.ubuntu.com as far as i can tell
[04:12] <Daverocks> sorcerer: looked like it, i wasn't following what you were doing
[04:13] <fulat2k> reep: nopes :(  i've got a 965 chipset.  c2d
[04:13] <reep> fulat2k: ah, a sis965 chipset?
[04:13] <sorcerer> i just click the apply button
[04:13] <fulat2k> reep: nopes, intel 965
[04:13] <sorcerer> now an i think its installing the stuff but i dunno of the other files downloaded !!!!!11
[04:14] <xtlosx> this is why ubuntu irks the hell out of me.
[04:14] <Daverocks> xtlosx: because you can't tweak with it? ;)
[04:14] <xtlosx> no, because it breaks so often
[04:14] <xtknight> ubuntu doesn't break, you break
[04:14] <xtknight> ;)
[04:14] <xtlosx> my laptop NEVER breaks
[04:14] <iqon> is there much benefit in increasing from 1GB to 2GB of memory when using ubuntu?
[04:14] <xtlosx> lol can't say I break. :D
[04:14] <Daverocks> sorcerer: check the inbuilt terminal, see if it's trying to install linux-restricted-modules-whatever
[04:15] <Tr1kk1> can someone help? i got hard time installing ubuntu 6.10
[04:15] <xtknight> iqon, a lot, i think.  it depends on what you do
[04:15] <reep> fulat2k: hm, sounds like there could be something wrong with the disk itself then
[04:15] <Ayabara> I'm trying to build truecrypt from source. do I need to build the linux kernel modules first?
[04:15] <xtlosx> hmm... now i dont know what in the hell to mess with here. NetworkManager doesn't see the wifi, just sees wired
[04:15] <fulat2k> reep: ehh... hang on.  intel 945 actually. core 2 duo.
[04:15] <Ayabara> I'm following a howto I don't quite understand...
[04:15] <mjr> iqon, not much unless you're running memory-hungry apps
[04:15] <Daverocks> iqon: if you look at your memory usage, and find you're going into swap space a lot, then upgrading may help
[04:15] <hggdh> xtlosx: http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[04:15] <Stig> hi all. I installed Ubuntu edgy last night and have been installing software today. I tried to install Beryl by following this guide: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Beryl.2FAIGLX_.28Nvidia.29    -    I got an error with a nasty looking screen saying "Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface) it is likely that it is not setup correctly. Would you like to view the X server to diagnose the p
[04:15] <Daverocks> iqon: if you're not using much, you won't see much difference upgrading
[04:15] <xtlosx> Ya i'm there right now looking around
[04:15] <xtlosx> Error: keyword not valid or missing
[04:15] <xtlosx> lol
[04:16] <Stig> then when I click "No" it says "The X server is now disabled. Restart GDM when it is configured correctly"
[04:16] <xtlosx> wow, search is broken?! lol
[04:16] <iqon> wow, lot's of different opinions on memory
[04:16] <fulat2k> reep: whoops.. it's actually 965 :)  but strangely i can still see the partition tables
[04:17] <reep> fulat2k: you can see partition tables now?
[04:17] <hggdh> xtlosx: what are you trying to search? I can search there no prob
[04:17] <fulat2k> reep: yups
[04:17] <Daverocks> Stig: uh, undo the changes you made to xorg.conf
[04:17] <hggdh> xtlosx: so this is probably something with your search string that is triggering the error
[04:17] <Stig> How do I do that?
[04:17] <Stig> I can't even login... :O
[04:17] <Daverocks> Stig: hang on, did you make that backup as said in the guide?
[04:17] <Stig> yes
[04:17] <fulat2k> reep: sda1 sda2 <sda5 sda6>
[04:18] <Daverocks> Stig: ok, you can log in at a tty, right?
[04:18] <kjm> I performed a system update last night, and the update manager stated I needed to restart my machine.  I have rebooted 4 times now, and the restart notification is still stating a reboot is required....doesn't seem like normal behaviour; anyone have this before?
[04:18] <Tr1kk1> stig be glad about that,i cant even install it
[04:18] <Stig> I see the login screen, I put my pass in, then I get that error again...
[04:18] <reep> fulat2k: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[04:18] <Daverocks> Stig: press ctrl-alt-F1 and login there
[04:18] <babo_> Is there an online repo of the gnome icons that come with ubuntu by default ?
[04:18] <hggdh> kjm: that is not correct behaviour, please open a bug on it
[04:18] <fulat2k> reep: no output
[04:19] <xtlosx> hggdh: i'm looking for network manager
[04:19] <dyrne> kjm: well im not familiar with the tool but id ignore it. only reason to reboot is new kernel and that would have loaded as soon as you booted up assuming grub is right
[04:19] <hggdh> xtlosx: try network-manager
[04:19] <Stig> OK, I will try again, brb
[04:19] <xtlosx> tried thtat, got the search string error
[04:20] <reep> fulat2k: sounds to me like there's something wrong with the disk. Are you able to try it in another machine?
[04:20] <hggdh> xtlosx: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=network-manager&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all
[04:20] <kjm> hggdh - I was going to file a bug report.  Is there anyway to possibly get rid of the notification?
[04:20] <Tr1kk1> ayone else have a problem install 6.10?
[04:20] <sharp15> has the most recent update to X caused a large number of problems?  my X server is crashing with the error "X: cannot stat /tmp/.X11-unix (Permission denied), aborting.
[04:21] <hggdh> kjm: without knowing what went wrong, no, not really.
[04:21] <hggdh> kjm: just disregard it for now. It is interesting
[04:21] <reep> sharp15: "ls -ld /tmp/.X11-unix" in a terminal, what does it say?
[04:21] <kjm> hggdh - figured, but never hurts.  Cool, I shall look at grub.conf to make sure everything is "ok" and file report.  Cheers
[04:21] <hggdh> kjm: cheers
[04:22] <sharp15> reep: it says "ls: /tmp/.X11-unix: Permission denied"
[04:22] <_raphael_> what are daa files?
[04:22] <xtlosx> hmm, It makes me wonder what was updated last night that caused this, my gf did the updates this morning, so i'm just trying to clean up after the fact
[04:22] <sharp15> reep: i'm running that command as root.
[04:22] <reep> sharp15: ok, "ls -ld /tmp" then
[04:22] <tim167> how do i get my laserprinter to work? it doesnt show up in the print dialog...thanks
[04:22] <fulat2k> reep: not at this moment.  anything i should look out for?  i think it fubar-ed coz when i installed winxp, it detected it as 130GB instead of 250.  then i proceeded to use it and install ubuntu.  when i tried to create another partitions, it died.
[04:22] <eetfuk> When i first installed Ubuntu, it automounted two ntfs disks. Then i Reinstalled it, overwriting the previous installation. Now i cant read my NTFS disks... How Come?
[04:22] <k001> hidan, some body tell me  how to create packages for Ubuntu?
[04:23] <sorcerer> hey guys i just installed it but when ..i did .. ctrl alt back space ... umm it gave me erros but when i restarted ubuntu ... i never saw the nvidia .. screen but i saw it and it loaded gnome .. now how i know i installed the nvidia driver correctly ???
[04:23] <eetfuk> and how can i fix it?
[04:23] <crimeboy> k001: u can uses checkinstall
[04:23] <safer> Hello does anyone know how I can acquire a copy of ---- fglrx-2.6.20.patch
[04:23] <hggdh> kjm: out of sheer dumb curiosity -- please run 'sudo apt-get check' to verify broken dependencies
[04:23] <hidan> k00l : no idea.
[04:24] <reep> fulat2k: should still be able to repartition it with fdisk though... at least I would think so...
[04:24] <kjm> had done that - nothing pops up.
[04:24] <Alam_Ubuntu> what package have the man pages to the libc functions? like 'man snprintf'?
[04:24] <k001> crimeboy, ok do you give me a url of how to?
[04:24] <sharp15> reep:it says "drwxrwxrwt 10" with a owner:group=root:root and a date.
[04:24] <safer> http://darcs.frugalware.org/repos/frugalware-current/source/x11-extra/fglrx/fglrx-2.6.20.patch
[04:24] <safer>             NO LONGER WORKS!!!
[04:24] <xtlosx> what bothers me, same network manager that was there yesterday, 0.6.4, there hasn't been an update... looks like the kernel was updated.. and when I try to boot into the previous kernel, same issue... network manager does not see the wireless
[04:24] <tim167> sorcerer: try a 3d app and you will find out soon enough
[04:24] <k001> hidan, tanks
[04:24] <crimeboy> k001: ./configure ; make ; checkinstall -D
[04:24] <sorcerer> umm like what
[04:24] <sorcerer> i dunno iam new in ubuntu i dont have any games any suggestions /
[04:24] <kjm> sorcerer - in terminal type glxgears
[04:24] <crimeboy> k001: in the src dir
[04:25] <k001> crimeboy, no no no how to create a packages debianized
[04:25] <dave__> i need some help
[04:25] <sorcerer> i mean is there no way i can find out if all my drivers are workingf like on windows my computer ?
[04:25] <reep> sharp15: that looks correct, weird that you can't list /tmp/.X11-unix the same way
[04:25] <hggdh> k001: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[04:25] <crimeboy> k001: -D == debian
[04:25] <k001> hggdh, tanks :D
[04:25] <tim167> sorcerer: kjm's advice is probably wiser :)
[04:25] <Stig> OK, ctrl+alt+f1 took me back to the login screen, but now it says my login details are incorrect....... I'm definitely using the correct pass...
[04:26] <k001>  tanks all :D
[04:26] <fulat2k> reep: darnit.  anyway i can do a low init or someting?  an alternative to fdisk?
[04:26] <Stig> It won't let me login... :(
[04:26] <sorcerer> yeah i see it running the three gears does that mean it been installed correctly ?
[04:26] <xtlosx> I dont get it, the ipw3945 driver is there in restricted driver, but network-manager cannot use it for the life of it
[04:26] <dave__> i have a problem with the webcams i cant convent my windows setup files for my webcam to linux and i have to convert it very soon
[04:26] <tim167> sorcerer: probably yes, did you use 'envy' to install nvidia ?
[04:26] <sharp15> reep: am i at the point of reinstall?  even root can't access the file. (also bash is coloring it red?)
[04:26] <sorcerer> oh yeah when i miniminse programs there is likme a black outline that folows the program when it goes into the bottom of the screen is that normal in ubuntu ???
[04:26] <kjm> sorcerer - if see these 3 gears spinning in 3D with a decent framerate; then yes, your 3D acceleration is decent, hence your video drivers are probably good
[04:27] <xtknight> sorcerer, yes
[04:27] <reep> sharp15: which dir is colored red?
[04:27] <dave__> any ideas
[04:27] <xtknight> sorcerer, kde has one more like windows
[04:27] <sorcerer> tim167:  umm envy .. what you mean
[04:27] <xtknight> sorcerer, and beryl can change that too
[04:27] <tim167> sorcerer: http://lunapark6.com/?p=2717
[04:27] <sorcerer> beryle ok whats that ..

[04:28] <reep> fulat2k: hm... I'm guessing you don't have any valuable data on that disk?
[04:28] <sharp15> reep: .X11-unix
[04:28] <erUSUL> safer: what's the problem?
[04:28] <kjm> safer - have you asked a question other than "I need help"?
[04:28] <fulat2k> reep: i've managed to backup everything... amazingly :P
[04:28] <Tr1kk1> cant install ubuntu 6.10, when it starts to instaal it just hang there,and says somekind of problem(cant remember). When i click ok on the error message,the screen goes blank,and it start to flood some text

[04:28] <reep> sharp15: and it has drwxrwxrwt in fron of it if you run "ls -la /tmp" ?
[04:29] <tim167> sorcerer, i think so, of your 3d stuff runs smoothly than nvidia will be working...i guess
[04:29] <hggdh> xtlosx: try 'sudo ifdown -a' and then 'sudo ifup -a'
[04:29] <SlimeyPete> Tr1kk1: you'll need to give us the error message before we can try to help you :)
[04:29] <tim167> sorcerer, if it works you dont have to do anything ofcourse...
[04:29] <erUSUL> safer: works for me...
[04:29] <safer> I'm surprised no one else is complaining about the inability to acquire that file
[04:30] <SpiritD> can some one gimme a hand...all my web browsers are locking up on the same websites...
[04:30] <reep> fulat2k: have you tried gparted btw?

[04:30] <xtknight> safer, which file?
[04:30] <safer> ???? works for you?????
[04:30] <Stig> Can anyone help? I tried installing Beryl and I edited the xorg.conf file, now it has completely messed Ubuntu up and I can't even login. What should I do?

[04:30] <safer> yes 8.35.5
[04:30] <sharp15> reep: no that was just the /tmp directory.  .X11-unix has a "?" for each entry on its record in the list.
[04:30] <The3Infinit3On3> If I were to install 6.10 would it be possible for me to upgrade to 7.04 when it comes out on the 19th without having to reformat?
[04:30] <safer> but the patch is missing
[04:30] <xtknight> safer, and the 8.35.5 fails on kernel 2.6.20, right?
[04:30] <fulat2k> reep: not on ubuntu, but kubuntu.  lemme try qtparted
[04:30] <safer> I can't get it

[04:30] <SpiritD> can some one gimme a hand...all my web browsers are locking up on the same websites...
[04:30] <safer> xtknight: yes
[04:30] <nox-Hand> up365: The3Infinit3On3
[04:30] <xtlosx> so, the card is there, for some friekin' reason network manager does not want to use it!
[04:30] <crimeboy> The3Infinit3On3: yes
[04:31] <nox-Hand> up365: Sorry
[04:31] <SpiritD> it locks the whole system

[04:59] <orbin> Weems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive ... ii'm not sure you can mirror security though
[04:59] <arrow> chrishampson, it says can't update and has an error problem and then has the automatix url, I showed the error code in here and someone told me about the automatix problem and said to just reinstall ubuntu

[05:02] <RedRose> I've noticed that in grub their is a new command used(uuid), but it only seems to slow my boot time. Can anyone explain what it does?

[05:03] <Turtlem4n727> Is it possible to upgrade my 5.10 kernal to 6.10? IF so how do I do it? I tried "update-manager -c -d" but it says -c is not a command
[05:03] <chrismhampson> Pici: what is the problem with automatix? It only uses apt-get...
[05:05] <fulat2k> bothr1: once u sudo crontab -e, a vi editor will come up.  then type in what kothz has typed.

[05:10] <dyrne> Turtlem4n727: in your case it may be best to resinstall. however, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and doing a find and replace on your version to whatever version then 'apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade' might work
[05:10] <alphakiller> mina_linux_Tux: edit modules.conf

[05:13] <linuxman> spanish
[05:13] <alphakiller> mina_linux_Tux: you must edit modules.conf

[05:13] <berent> !answer  >Pici
[05:14] <kothz> berent: I don't think that g++ has a conio.h - I haven't seen that since old dos days
[05:14] <alphakiller> you can edit any init script too
[05:14] <xtlosx> wow, knetwork manager got it working
[05:14] <alphakiller> and insert modprobe your_module
[05:14] <berent> so what should i include kothz
[05:14] <mage> Turtlem4n727: you should follow the proper upgrade path and instructions from 5.10 onwards
[05:14] <mina_linux_Tux> alphakiller: any configuration guide , or a pointer to usefull tutor
[05:14] <xtlosx> wpa_supplicant being started, kick started the wifi nic somehow, and knetworkmanager works like a charm, gnome's network manager won't even start up :(
[05:15] <Turtlem4n727> mage: how would I go about doing this?
[05:15] <xtlosx> I dont know why that happened, even after removal and reinstall of network manager
[05:15] <kothz> stdio maybe?  curses?
[05:15] <dyrne> xtlosx: maybe some .config files in you home dir
[05:15] <xtlosx> hmm, well when I launch networkmanager, it doesn't even appear
[05:15] <alphakiller> mina_linux_Tux: google for init scripts linux
[05:15] <alphakiller> rc.d
[05:15] <xtlosx> but knetwork manager decides to... maybe so
[05:16] <dyrne> xtlosx: you could always delete the gnome config stuff and relaunch maybe
[05:16] <csarven> can anyone tell me the difference between version 6.10 and 6.06 LTS
[05:16] <mina_linux_Tux> alphakiller: the instruction says that i have to edit the rc.local with the insmod....kernel module , but there is no , rc.local
[05:16] <dyrne> xtlosx: or maybe just add another user and test with then
[05:16] <kothz> berent: if you're just looking for line endings: cout << "\n"; or cout << endl;
[05:16] <xtlosx> i'm just going to tell my gf not more rebooting or i'll whip her!
[05:16] <xtlosx> lol
[05:17] <xtlosx> updating rather
[05:17] <xtlosx> not rebooting
[05:17] <alphakiller> it depends on your distro
[05:17] <stevethepirate> People.. sudo lshw is god!!
[05:17] <xtlosx> no more blind updating in the mornings without me around :D
[05:17] <berent> no kothz i need graphics.h also
[05:17] <alphakiller> mina_linux_Tux: it depends on your distro

[05:17] <mina_linux_Tux> alphakiller: it's ubuntu 6.10 alternative , thats why i'm here
[05:17] <mage> im assuming 5.10 is breezy
[05:17] <safer> xtknight: I'm having trouble with the "patch" part of the installation:  what does "sudo patch < -p0 ~/fglrx-2.6.20.patch" mean?
[05:17] <dyrne> stevethepirate: you have insulted the one true god /proc. i suggest you repent
[05:18] <safer> what should I do for that part exactly??
[05:18] <xtknight> safer, probably you mean "sudo patch -p0 < ~/asdf.patch" but that will apply it
[05:18] <safer> hah?
[05:18] <alphakiller> mina_linux_Tux: so you must google for ubuntu init scripts
[05:19] <safer> I don't know how to apply it
[05:19] <outlier> Does anyone know if Shorewall can handle load balancing over a couple of ISP's ?
[05:19] <xtknight> safer, lol what do you mean
[05:19] <safer> cd /usr/src/modules/fglrx
[05:19] <safer> sudo patch < -p0 ~/fglrx-2.6.20.patch
[05:19] <xtknight> that applies it
[05:19] <safer> no it doesn't
[05:20] <safer> safer@bisaru:/usr/src/modules/fglrx$ sudo patch < -p0 ~/fglrx-2.6.20.patch
[05:20] <safer> bash: -p0: No such file or directory
[05:20] <mwe> patch supports -i
[05:20] <xtknight> safer, you did -p0 after <
[05:20] <mwe> it has for 10 years or so ;)
[05:21] <dave__> kde runs under kubuntu but can it run under ubuntu
[05:21] <mwe> sudo patch -p0 i ~/fglrx-2.6.20.patch will work ;)
[05:21] <safer> ok so don't use the < symbol????
[05:21] <dballester> hi to all. Anyone can provide me a link to read about raw devices definition under ubuntu ?
[05:22] <mage> dave__: why not?
[05:22] <mwe> safer: you don't have to
[05:22] <mage> oh
[05:22] <mage> cant/can it
[05:22] <mwe> safer: but use it after -p0 if you want to use that syntax, as xtknight suggested
[05:23] <dave__> i was wonder if it worked or not
[05:23] <Turtlem4n727> mage: So all I have to do really is in the sources.list physically change everything that says Breezy to say Dapper? And then run the sudo commands and thats it?
[05:24] <safer> OK --- lemme try
[05:24] <mwe> dave__: well kubuntu is just ubuntu running kde
[05:24] <mwe> dave__: so yes
[05:24] <dave__> oh okay thanks
[05:25] <mwe> dave__: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop if you want all the krap ;)
[05:25] <mage> Turtlem4n727: I honestly have no idea, I usually have my nick as WindowsUser so people think I know literally nothing. back up your etc though.
[05:25] <dave__> do u think thank kde would be able to convert windows files
[05:25] <mwe> dave__: ?
[05:25] <mwe> dave__: explain ;)

[05:25] <dyrne> Turtlem4n727: typical one liner is: 'sudo sed -i 's/breezy/dapper/g' /etc/apt/sources.list; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' or something
[05:26] <mage> cp -a /etc /etc.breezy <-- or to whatever
[05:26] <mwe> dave__: what do you mean convert windows files ?
[05:26] <mage> Turtlem4n727: dist upgrades have been known to fail :)
[05:26] <andre_pl> where do the .debs go when you isntalll a package? are ythey kept?

[05:26] <mage> andre_pl: look in /var if you dont get a good answer
[05:26] <ror> but given it's the only one on the live CD I can find it'll have to do

[05:27] <root__> good morning
[05:27] <root__> can anyone help me
[05:27] <dave__> its for a project

[05:27] <ror> !ask | root__

[05:28] <Cosmo_> I'm trying to install the VPN for my work but this is what it says when I try to install the software http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15047/
[05:28] <locolbd> yeah i did
[05:28] <ror> is there a reason there is no IRC client on the live CD?
[05:28] <locolbd> that does no good
[05:28] <dave__> i cant get wine to run the setup file to run for the software on the webcams
[05:28] <dyrne> Turtlem4n727: best strategy ive found is to make /home a seperate partition so that you can reinstall without problem of losing configs and games and stuff installed by your users
[05:28] <mwe> dave__: oh. that probably wont work
[05:28] <dave__> i just need the drivers
[05:28] <ror> yeah a separate /home is really useful! I've always done that
[05:28] <mwe> dave__: you need to install the webcam using linux methods I think
[05:29] <mage> heh last install of linux I had a separate drive for /home/mage
[05:29] <dave__> ive tried
[05:29] <mwe> dave__: windows driver wont work in linux
[05:29] <dave__> the drivers dont work
[05:29] <dave__> i know this
[05:29] <mwe> dave__: not even in wine
[05:29] <mage> this install is a fancypants software raid5/lvm setup
[05:29] <crusty> hi
[05:29] <dave__> nope
[05:29] <safer> sudo patch < -p0 ~/fglrx-2.6.20.patch ------ what does that line mean exactly? as in.... "use what file to patch what file"?
[05:29] <ror> makes switching between distros easy too
[05:29] <scope006> i got back into my system by editing the grub boot line and booting off the 2.6.17-10 kernel.  What is my best bet for completely removing all 2.6.17-11 files and reinstalling them?
[05:29] <Turtlem4n727> mage: probably if I could
[05:29] <mwe> safer: it means you did a typo ;)
[05:29] <dave__> it wont even run'
[05:29] <mwe> safer: sudo patch -p0 < ~/foo
[05:30] <ror> if you can't boot after a kernel change it's probably because your modules need recompiling under the new kernel and something went worng
[05:30] <mwe> safer: it mean patch -p0 and use as input the file ~/foo
[05:30] <mwe> means even
[05:30] <dave__> so anymore ideas
[05:30] <safer> ooo i c
[05:31] <scope006> ror, i was updating the package linux-headers-2.6.17-11 when a wine app locked my system up
[05:31] <mwe> safer: use -i ~/foo instead I would say. I think it's clearer
[05:31] <mage> my webcam runs for like a minute then the program crashes
[05:31] <scope006> ror, that is why it crashed
[05:31] <locolbd> When i alsamixer in the terminal, i am unable to adjust the master volume, i am only able to adjust the pcm and mic
[05:31] <locolbd> can someone help?
[05:31] <ror> ouch
[05:31] <safer> ok
[05:31] <dave__> i cant even get drivers to work for my webcam
[05:31] <andre_pl> ok, when i install the source for a package, where does that go?
[05:31] <safer> you know what --- it's the writer of the tutorial that messed up badly
[05:31] <scope006> ror, so i edited my boot line in grub to boot off the previous kernel version
[05:32] <ror> wow ubuntu's hardware detection is really stunning; not only found my wireless card (not surprised actually rt2500 is reknown for having good linux support) but found my card reader too :O
[05:32] <scope006> ror, looks like i can mark all the 2.6.27-11 packages for reinstall in synaptic though
[05:32] <aev> scope006: could one do a force apt-get reinstall or something
[05:32] <ror> yeah synaptic is your best bet; try removing then re-adding
[05:32] <ror> or forcing an upgrade
[05:32] <aev> scope006: i think thats what you should try yes
[05:32] <scope006> aev, ror, that is what i am gonna try
[05:33] <aev> goodluck
[05:33] <ror> next time don't run other programs while upgrading your kernel!!
[05:33] <safer> OK ---- so is p0 supposed to be a file??
[05:33] <scope006> I feel a little better now that i can at least boot to the -10 kernel =P
[05:33] <scope006> ror, yeah i learned that lesson
[05:33] <scope006> hehe
[05:33] <safer> or is that a command as well
[05:33] <ror> yeah sucks when you lose everything, I did that to my gentoo install
[05:33] <ror> I *loved* that install
[05:33] <ror> but now I just can't be botehred to set it all up again so I'm on ubuntu for a while :S
[05:34] <scope006> hehe, yeah man.  I have everything tweaked and customized
[05:34] <scope006> i was like !@#%$!
[05:34] <scope006> lol
[05:34] <ror> I wanna go back to slackware but their hardware detection is really lacking these days, when you first boot and you're gonna have to manually install all your hardware it takes the fun out
[05:34] <scope006> i was a mandriva and a centos user, but i really really like ubuntu now
[05:34] <ror> at least with linux you know you can just boot to a liveCD and copy your /home out if you want
[05:35] <edhunter> Is there any way to resize a partition in Ubuntu?
[05:35] <ror> and you know by doing that you've got ALL your configs saved
[05:35] <mobster> I dont get this error
[05:35] <mwe> safer: the file is ~/file which means /home/you/file
[05:35] <scope006> yes that is nice.
[05:35] <ror> with windows it sucks because every programs stores all their config files in different places, all in different, often non--human-readable forums
[05:35] <aev> well you'll miss the configs in /etc would you not?
[05:35] <scope006> yep.  =P  you can basically copy your profile and pray

[05:35] <aev> global stuff if im correct
[05:35] <ror> there's /etc too of course for the system ones
[05:36] <ror> and /usr could be worth saving
[05:36] <ror> depending what you've put there
[05:36] <safer> OK so what does -p0 stand for?
[05:36] <ror> well, /usr/local at least

[05:44] <user____> if it would only be that simple
[05:44] <JiminyJ> the modem uses a software to function

[05:45] <yccheok> any wireshark user here?
[05:45] <mwe> user____: wine Wow.exe. you probably have to follow a guide to make it work, though.
[05:45] <Auschwitz> yccheok: what's up?
[05:45] <user____> wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\wow.exe": Module not found
[05:45] <Qwell[] > mwe: works just fine for me, first time, every time...
[05:45] <Qwell[] > unless ubuntu hosed up the package or something
[05:45] <Qwell[] > user____: be in the dir, or give it the full path
[05:45] <dyrne> Qwell[] : if you create a new user temporarily do they have any problems? if not its one of those pesky /home/$USER/.g* config directories need to be deleted and then relaunch gnome maybe
[05:45] <CommanderCool> the soundcard is listed under lspci, but /dev/dsp0 does not exist
[05:45] <JiminyJ> umm...how can i run a USB modem on linux? :\ (it uses a program to work)

[05:52] <Stig> Hi all... Is there a guide on how to use "Wine". I am completely new to this and have no idea how to use it. I have it installed, but how do I start it, etc?
[05:53] <hggdh> andre_pl: if you do an 'apt-get source xxx' it will get installed you your CWD
[05:53] <kitche> Stig: wine /path/to/exe is how it works

[05:55] <BSG75> okay I took out the xdcard from the digital camera and plugged into the internal card reader .. dmesg says: tifm_7xx1: xd card detected in socket 0  how do I mount this to a dir please?
[05:55] <sorcerer> reep: I did the sudo aptitude ugrade and the update but still the flash update gives me errors
[05:56] <berent> no kothz i need graphics.h also
[05:56] <Manadar> real podcasting or more like streaming music?
[05:57] <safer> xtknight: are you here?
[05:57] <sorcerer> hey guys if like one of my applicatrion is stuck or frozed how can i kill the program ?
[05:58] <cyberius> hi! i'm using kubuntu 7.04! When i make a scan with "kismet" he stops scanning after some minutes. He uses the monitor mode of my wlan card. Somebody told me that kubuntu maybe sets the wlan card after some time into a "power save" mode, when no packets are send (this is the case in the monitor mode)? if yes, how can i disable the power save mode? please help me thank you!
[05:58] <Qwell[] > so, whoever manages the gnome packages must not use nvidia/xinerama or something..  they constantly get hosed
[05:58] <Stig> I got Wine working, thanks for the help.
[05:58] <Qwell[] > kinda annoying
[05:58] <micahcowan> sorcerer, can you click the close button? Normally, the window manager will ask you if you want to kill it if you hit the close button and it doesn't respond for a while...
[05:58] <micahcowan> sorcerer, otherwise, you can run the "xkill" program and click on the offending window.
[05:58] <sorcerer> how do i do that
[05:58] <Auschwitz> I always used to spell "sorcerer" wrong in school
[05:59] <micahcowan> sorcerer, does alt-F2 bring up a window?
[05:59] <sorcerer> lol i dunno this name is stuck with from childhoos lol
[05:59] <quaal> is this when you were playing dungeons and dragons?
[05:59] <Qwell[] > quaal: "were"? ;)
[05:59] <Qwell[] > who's to say he stopped?
[05:59] <ripzaw> hi guys, installing nvidia 9775 and just getting crushed....  how can I update the NVIDIA kernel module so that it matches the vid card driver 9775? can I just download it?
[05:59] <quaal> i just assumed
[05:59] <sorcerer> micahcowan: no man it doesnt
[05:59] <sorcerer> lol
[06:00] <ripzaw> anyone here using nvidia 9775 driver?
[06:00] <micahcowan> Anybody: what's the default key seq for "Run Command"? I've changed mine :)
[06:00] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: thought it was F2
[06:01] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , just by itself?
[06:01] <sorcerer> micahcowan:  umm this happened after i just tried to install flash
[06:01] <Qwell[] > I'd test, but gnome is stupid
[06:01] <micahcowan> sorcerer, is it firefox that's locked up, then?
[06:01] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: thought so
[06:01] <sorcerer> yeah
[06:01] <sorcerer> micahcowan: yeah it is
[06:01] <micahcowan> sorceror, how about F2, without an Alt?
[06:01] <kothz> berent: what kind of graphics are you doing?
[06:01] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: If you wanna unhose my gnome, I'd be more than happy to tell you? :P
[06:01] <micahcowan> Heh.
[06:01] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , what's the problem?
[06:02] <frojnd> what does that mean if u write arp -a in a konsole and there is no output... that u don't have router??
[06:02] <sorcerer> micahcowan: nothing happens
[06:02] <mage> frojnd: just means the arp cache is empty or you cant read it
[06:02] <frojnd> how can I get the IP of a router?
[06:03] <mage> route -n
[06:03] <micahcowan> sorcerer, are you otherwise able to open other windows, use menus in the task bar, etc, or is your whole desktop munged?
[06:03] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: gnome-term crashes, and locking the screen acts all stupid..  the left monitor goes black, and doesn't *actually* lock it...  I have to kill X to fix it
[06:03] <mage> frojnd: if you're trying to find a router, try dhcp
[06:03] <micahcowan> sorcerer, well, I assume an IRC client is working in your GUI, huh?
[06:03] <sorcerer> micahcowan: no i can open other stuff and what not i can even open another browser windows .. but the buttons with the page dont even work
[06:03] <frojnd> mage: bash: dhcp: command not found
[06:04] <sorcerer> micahcowan: lol yeah
[06:04] <shoot^> alright guys, this ubuntu installer still seems to be shot... keeps getting suck at 25% despite plenty of RAM and Swap Space being free. Just quits reading from the CD. Any suggestions?
[06:04] <mage> dhcpcd maybe?
[06:04] <safer> Does anyone have a minute took check out  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15059/
[06:04] <mage> dhclient
[06:04] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , the latter part sounds like a problem with gnome-screensaver (or your video driver). does gnome-terminal crash /every/ time you try to run it?
[06:04] <safer> to*****
[06:04] <Qwell[] > every time
[06:04] <juice`> is there anything like daemon tools for ubuntu? can't find one project that will open all .iso .bin .mdf and such, only many small programs that opens only one format
[06:04] <Qwell[] > and, yeah, when I lock the screen, gnome-screensaver dies...no error message though
[06:04] <micahcowan> sorcerer, can you open a terminal?
[06:05] <NixHost> juice`: try Kiso
[06:05] <sorcerer> micahcowan: yeah its already opened
[06:05] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , what about in your ~/.xsession-errors ?
[06:05] <micahcowan> sorcerer, just enter "xkill" then, and click on your Firefox window.
[06:06] <frojnd> mage if the output is like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15062/  what's the IP of a router?
[06:06] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: Does it get cleared on X restart?
[06:06] <sorcerer> ok it closed
[06:06] <tarzeau> frojnd: try telnet linuks.mine.nu 65535
[06:06] <Qwell[] > if so, it's not gonna do any good, because I'm not gonna try to lock my screen again ;)
[06:06] <sorcerer> now let me open it again
[06:07] <frojnd> tarzeau: this shows your external IP...
[06:07] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , whoops, I missed the "had to kill X" part...
[06:07] <Qwell[] > actually...  my other user did do it
[06:07] <mage> hah
[06:07] <mage> is that a dialup connection?
[06:07] <frojnd> mage: no dsl..
[06:07] <safer> Is anyone free to help me??????
[06:07] <micahcowan> sorcerer, just be advised that Flash 9  is known to be buggy, and we can't support it as it's proprietary :/
[06:07] <mage> oh
[06:07] <sorcerer> micahcowan: hey man i just installed flah player i want to see if it works but when i got the official site they want java 2 is that right or something wrong with my setup
[06:08] <mage> try .1
[06:08] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , did do what?
[06:08] <Qwell[] > gnome-screensaver-Message: Screensaver is not running!
[06:08] <frojnd> mage: 1. ?
[06:08] <Qwell[] > That's about the only useful message
[06:08] <micahcowan> sorcerer, java 2 for the Macromedia site? That seems very strange...
[06:08] <mage> frojnd: x.x.x.1
[06:08] <Qwell[] > but that may be related to killing X
[06:08] <ripzaw> anyone use nvidia drivers on ubuntu? prolly 50% so lets see if I can get a less than generic "yes" answer.  I am having problems installing 9775 driver.... my NVIDIA kernel module version is older, how can I update the kernel module to 9775?
[06:09] <sorcerer> micahcowan:  see i wanna watch youtube videos
[06:09] <ttupla18> u guys really should use windows xp or vista ;)
[06:09] <tarzeau> ripzaw: using its installer?
[06:09] <sorcerer> micahcowan: what do i need to install
[06:09] <micahcowan> sorcerer, me too :) ...I'm just warning you, it will occasionally munge your firefox :(
[06:09] <tarzeau> ripzaw: stop x, rmmod nvidia, and run the installer?
[06:09] <micahcowan> And no, you don't need Java to watch Youtube
[06:09] <frojnd> mage: the problem is that I can't find the IP of a router cause I wanna forward some ports..
[06:10] <sorcerer> micahcowan: are you seriouse .. this is real bad ... man ..
[06:10] <frojnd> mage: and I really don't understand what do u mean with x.x.x.1
[06:10] <crimeboy> frojnd: no have gateway set, to set gateway u type: route add default gw IPGATEWAY
[06:10] <safer> OK --- where else can I get help being that everyone here is busy?
[06:10] <ripzaw> tarseau" how to I rund rmmod nvidia? from a terminal?
[06:10] <sorcerer> micahcowan: yeah sorry it said java script
[06:10] <juice`> NixHost: but i use GNOME
[06:10] <safer> As a matter of fact nvm....
[06:10] <micahcowan> sorcerer, well, it shouldn't be frequent: why, it crashes every time you load a shockwave page?
[06:10] <sorcerer> micahcowan: in the adobe site!!
[06:10] <Nuke13> ttupla18 - if you want to use xp or vista good for you but please do not come on to IRC channels where people are looking for constructive support from others for Ubuntu
[06:10] <juice`> NixHost: and Kiso is for KDE
[06:10] <chili555> safer: ask us the question
[06:10] <safer> I've asked a million times lol
[06:10] <micahcowan> sorcerer, well, you already /have/ java script... provided it's enabled (which it is by default)
[06:10] <sorcerer> micahcowan: not really i just installed ubuntu this is my first time ever
[06:10] <frojnd> crimeboy: like this route <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[06:10] <crimeboy> frojnd: yes
[06:11] <sorcerer> micahcowan: well how do i enable is
[06:11] <sorcerer> micahcowan: it
[06:11] <safer> can you tell me anything about http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15059/
[06:11] <ripzaw> does this help?
[06:11] <malcome> hi
[06:11] <safer> I'm trying to apply the patch for fglrx
[06:11] <ripzaw> legos@legos-desktop:~$ rmmod nvidia
[06:11] <ripzaw> ERROR: Module nvidia does not exist in /proc/modules
[06:11] <juice`> can i run KDE programs in GNOME without any problems?
[06:11] <malcome> hihihi
[06:11] <PyroticShadow> juice`... yea
[06:11] <Qwell[] > juice`: yes
[06:11] <mage> frojnd: that bit with the router and port forwarding is a bit confusing
[06:12] <Qwell[] > as long as you have the libs you need, like qt or gtk
[06:12] <Alan> safer, -p5 maybe?
[06:12] <juice`> i know i can at all, but without problems? then why in description of the program it is said, that this program is for KDE for example
[06:12] <juice`> why even mention it, if it's also for gnome
[06:12] <ripzaw> please people, if you don't have a clue what your talking about.... then don't give advice to others....
[06:12] <safer> OK ---- lemme try
[06:12] <Qwell[] > juice`: because "KDE programs" "look better" in KDE
[06:12] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , what is the output of ps auxww | grep gnome-screensaver ?
[06:12] <Qwell[] > they integrate with other things, etc
[06:12] <sorcerer> micahcowan: i think i did not install the flash properly coz .. ummm when i tried to update the t gave me an error
[06:12] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: before I try to lock the screen, it's running - afterwards, it's not
[06:12] <PyroticShadow> juice`... just use Fluxbox, you'll be happier ;)
[06:12] <juice`> so KDE program probably wont be in my Application Gnome menu and such?
[06:13] <crdlb> juice`, it also does use more ram to run kde apps in gnome
[06:13] <Qwell[] > juice`: it may still
[06:13] <Alan> safer, IIRC -p determines the dir depth you are doing the patch in... -p5 will strip the first 5 parts from the paths it needs to patch
[06:13] <mikkel_> Hello.. i need help.. How can i install Tuxracer to ubuntu?
[06:13] <ripzaw> lets try this again... the dummy way.... Duhhh.... Is there anyone here using NVIDIA vid card?
[06:13] <micahcowan> sorcerer, oh. What error?
[06:13] <PyroticShadow> ripzaw... yea
[06:13] <tarzeau> ripzaw: so do i
[06:13] <juice`> ok then, anyone knows GNOME .iso .mdf .bin and such extracter? something like daemon tools for windows
[06:13] <mikkel_> where and how can i install Tuxracer...???
[06:14] <tarzeau> juice`: what says file *.iso *.mdf *.bin ?
[06:14] <ripzaw> ok all you guys that run NVIDIA: "What driver are you using"? is anyone using 9775?
[06:14] <Qwell[] > juice`: You can mount iso's just fine
[06:14] <sorcerer> micahcowan:  sudo update-flashplugin ............. it gives me this  error automatic installation failed due to network problems or upstream changes
[06:14] <safer> ok
[06:14] <tarzeau> juice`: you probably just can mount -o loop the.iso /mountpoint
[06:14] <tarzeau> juice`: for the *.bin run it, chmod +x the.bin ; ./the.bin
[06:14] <juice`> what about bin/cue files ?
[06:14] <safer> Alan: I still got the same error with p5
[06:14] <mikkel_> Afk :)
[06:14] <juice`> it says i don't have program assiociated with it
[06:14] <juice`> when i run ./bin
[06:14] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , what screensaver ("hack") are you running in gnome-screensaver?
[06:14] <roberto_> ciao
[06:15] <tarzeau> juice`: they can be burned using cdrdao or converted using some tool
[06:15] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: no idea
[06:15] <PyroticShadow> mikkel_... go to synaptec package manager, and go to games ont he left side, it's in there, select it for installation
[06:15] <Alan> safer, hmm
[06:15] <juice`> No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file.
[06:15] <micahcowan> sorcerer, so, you were going to Adobe to download their installer?
[06:15] <jatt> wtf, http://pidgin.im/
[06:15] <Qwell[] > had an uptime of 55 days, apt-get upgrade'd, reboot...bam, gnome is hosed (...again)
[06:15] <ripzaw> Does anyone in this channel have a clue how i could "Update the Nvidia Kernel Module to version 1.0-9775" ?
[06:15] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , can you go into Preferences -> Screensaver and check?
[06:15] <juice`> tarzeau: but i;m looking for just one application that will handle all of them.
[06:15] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , also, are you using desktop effects (compiz, beryl)
[06:15] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: no, actually, it crashed when it ran :)
[06:15] <Qwell[] > no
[06:15] <user____> how i start gnomecommander from terminal?
[06:16] <Cr0w-> hello..i want to have xgl or/and compiz desktop..but i'm not sure which package i need to install..i have ubuntu 6.10
[06:16] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , ... /wow/.
[06:16] <tarzeau> juice`: i don't know, sorry
[06:16] <sorcerer> micahcowan: nope i did in the terminal with this command : sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:16] <Qwell[] > yeah, like I said - gnome is hosed :P
[06:16] <Qwell[] > The program 'gnome-screensaver' received an X Window System error.
[06:16] <foxiness> hi,after i install mysql did i need to do restart or there another way to get it startup?
[06:16] <ripzaw> Tarzeua: What NVIDIA driver are you currently using?
[06:16] <Qwell[] > I get that when I run gnome-screensaver-preferences
[06:16] <juice`> and Kiso doesn't support .bin !
[06:17] <EADG> juice`: kiso handels .iso nicley, can't say about others... only ever used .iso .
[06:17] <safer> Alan: the patch is located in my /home/name/video/  folder  and I'm supposed to patch something in /usr/src/modules/fglrx
[06:17] <Cosmo_> I'm trying to install the VPN for my work but this is what it says when I try to install the software http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15047/
[06:17] <user____> anyone know how to start gnomecommander from console??
[06:17] <juice`> and i need to open .bin
[06:17] <xtknight> safer, im here now
[06:17] <micahcowan> sorcerer, I would recommend, in this case, that you go ahead and use the Adobe installer. AFAIK there aren't many dependencies upon flashplugin, so it shouldn't be an issue. But, you need a way to get it in the first place, which is a small challenge with your browser the way it currently is...
[06:17] <safer> the tutorial is very unclear
[06:17] <juice`> don't want to covert it, i'm sure there is some kind of program that opens .iso .mdf and .bin all together
[06:17] <juice`> just can't find it
[06:17] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , what version of Ubuntu are you running?
[06:17] <xtknight> safer, applying a kernel patch isnt as easy as 1 2 3
[06:18] <Qwell[] > micahcowan: edgy, updated last night
[06:18] <safer> hmmk
[06:18] <micahcowan> Qwell[] , and it's since the updates that you encountered this problem?
[06:18] <sorcerer> micahcowan: so how do i do that just click the get plug in link in my browser ?
[06:18] <safer> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15059/
[06:18] <xtknight> safer, i suggest just waiting until they get the newer version in restricted
[06:18] <ripzaw> Is there anyone in this channel that "Uses an NVIDIA video card"? and has knowledge of how to install a new driver and new kernel module...?
[06:18] <Qwell[] > well, like I said, I hadn't rebooted in 55 days
[06:18] <Qwell[] > so, something during that time hosed up gnome pretty good (...again...)
[06:18] <micahcowan> sorcerer, if you're able to get to that page without crashing, sure.
[06:18] <xtknight> safer, try p1 or p2 instead
[06:18] <BSG75> anyone know how to mount a xd card?
[06:19] <xtknight> safer, reason i say 'or' is because it's safe to try p1-9.  it just tries harder to find the files to patch
[06:19] <Cr0w-> ripzaw: i have a 6600GT and i used synaptic to install it
[06:19] <xtknight> safer, to be specific p1 cuts off one part of the path, p2 cuts off two, etc.  in the patch file itself they have a hardcoded path and that doesnt necessarily match your file structure.  so p tries to work aroun dit
[06:19] <sorcerer> micahcowan: umm when i click the get plug in button it says : no suitable plugin found ... unknown plug in
[06:19] <xtknight> ripzaw, yes
[06:19] <xtknight> what's up[?

[06:20] <Seraphire> Hi all.  Anyone have a good URL for learning on how to write a script for /etc/init.d?
[06:20] <ripzaw> ok lets try this again.... arrrggggg.... Is there anyone in this channel that "Uses an NVIDIA video card"? and has knowledge of how to install a new driver and new kernel module...? Can you guide me through the "MANUAL" non-synaptic process of updating my Nvidia Kernel Module to version 9775
[06:20] <safer> I tried p5 before
[06:20] <sorcerer> micahcowan: and there is a button with  manual install but all it does itopen a new browser windows and takes me to this page :http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveAuthorware
[06:20] <xtknight> Seraphire, those are just bash scripts.  i suggest looking at other init.d scripts

[06:22] <mdma> guys is there any norton commander alike replacement for terminal ?
[06:22] <xtknight> safer, :P alright lets get this done
[06:22] <Seraphire> xtknight, okay, I'll have to kludge something then. Thanks tho.
[06:22] <blu2> I think that this is a extracting/burning application
[06:22] <juice`> does anyone knows any program that can handle .iso .mdf .bin and such , and open them ?

[06:23] <kothz> ripzaw: check out http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Edgy - has an overview of manually installing the drivers.
[06:24] <Seraphire> xtknight, I don't want it to execute as root as I don't want the security risk of the program having root access.
[06:24] <xtknight> WaxyFresh, it wont work on 64bit
[06:24] <SlimeyPete> ripzaw: I have done so, but the procedure differs according to which driver you're installing
[06:24] <blu2> I havent used it, just a suggestion...
[06:24] <kitche> ripzaw: not hard you just get the driver and run it with sh blah-blah.run of course you need the kernel sources among other things
[06:24] <xtknight> wine is in universe. enable that for x86
[06:24] <vox754> ripzaw, everything you can do from synaptic can be done from the terminal, so I don't know why you complain so much
[06:24] <ripzaw> xtknight: I didn't see your question... can you repeat please?
[06:24] <xtknight> safer, so you have the pathc file in that spot?
[06:24] <xtknight> ripzaw, was just asking what you needed help with specifically. glad to help but you have to be specific
