[12:10] <Ximal> Myrtti I was asking if it's possible to make the video that vlc would be playing the active background image...
[12:10] <DRebellion> guille_, ask in #ubuntu-motu for more info
[12:11] <Myrtti> Ximal: no, it can't do that as far as I know
[12:11] <defrysk> guille_, fot that you do apt-source -b <package>
[12:11] <Ximal> well it does it on accident for me sometime
[12:11] <Ximal> so i was wandering how to get it to do it all the time
[12:11] <guille_> defrysk: but i've changed the configure options (and some source)
[12:12] <defrysk> guille_, then you are no longer supported
[12:13] <danub_> are you just trying to make a package out of source?
[12:13] <guille_> danub_: yes
[12:13] <guille_> more or less
[12:13] <danub_> ok, hold
[12:13] <LordMetroid> how do one unmodprobe something?

[12:29] <pdani_> hi
[12:29] <benoka> I'm trying to launch a java applet from here: https://ibank.cib.hu/applet2.html - few seconds after launching firefox gets dark (freezing?)
[12:29] <pdani_> there's this page: http://nytv.composeit.hu/index.php?module=video&action=show&dir=.%2FH%EDrad%F3&file=2008-11-20.wmv
[12:29] <anathematic> how do I prevent my ubuntu server from needing the cd inserted for certain apt-get installs?
[12:29] <pdani_> in explorer, the embedded movie plays fine, but in ubuntu, i can't play it
[12:30] <Frogzoo> anathematic: fire up synaptic, and remove the cd repo
[12:30] <anathematic> Frogzoo: server not normal desktop
[12:30] <pdani_> i tried with totem, vlc, and mplayerplug-in
[12:30] <pdani_> any idea?
[12:30] <defrysk> benoka, 404
[12:30] <Frogzoo> anathematic: ok, then edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:30] <anathematic> thanks Frogzoo I coudln't remember where it was
[12:31] <benoka> defrysk, meaning the applet will most probably not work...?
[12:31] <benoka> defrysk, it works on windows
[12:31] <defrysk> benoka, meaning : The requested URL /applet2.html was not found on this server.
[12:31] <soulchild> Hi all,... I have Problems with audio. somehow I have no "PCM Capture" in Gnome sound Settings, even kmix does not show that option, if I check /proc/asound/timers it says: P0-0-1: PCM capture 0-0-1 : SLAVE ... what should I do ? I have a intel sound card.

[12:33] <benoka> defrysk, so it doesn't support ubuntu, seemingly... right?
[12:33] <jimmysparkle> I've installed denyhosts on my ubuntu box and everytime i try to ssh to my machine it closes my connection and adds my IP to /etc/hosts.deny - anyone know what im doing wrong?
[12:33] <blackpearl> it was something like ...lib
[12:33] <omucuvaca> hello again :D ...quick question: is there a way to denoise video in blender, perhaps, or maybe a standalone software?
[12:33] <wariskampar> right now i'm using direct connection to modem

[12:34] <bahr> Hi, I wanted to try KDE4, so I installed the package kubuntu-desktop-kde4, I didn't like it, and removed it again, but now I have a lot of KDE apps, which I don't use? How do I get rid of them all at once?
[12:34] <defrysk> benoka, check for pop ups asking you if this allet is safe to use or not and stuff
[12:34] <jrib> danub_: install vim-gnome.  Ubuntu only has vim-tiny installed by default
[12:34] <defrysk> applet*
[12:34] <blackpearl> what is the command to check UUID ?
[12:34] <fatal_> danub_: :syntax on, :filetype indent on, :set smartindent
[12:34] <erUSUL> !uuid
[12:35] <angel> .
[12:35] <fatal_> danub_: :set showmatch
[12:35] <danub_> fatal_: does that set it in te config file also?
[12:35] <fatal_> danub_: yes, just strip off the :
[12:35] <fatal_> danub_: ie, type the same thing in your .vimrc if you want it to be set every time you start vim.
[12:35] <benoka> defrysk, those alerst are coming, and I accept them and check the tickbox, allow this site, but the 404 comes after all that
[12:35] <danub_> ok :)
[12:36] <fatal_> danub_: :set laststatus=2 for status bar...
[12:36] <defrysk> benoka, I see it, and here i get no applet either
[12:36] <benoka> defrysk, so indeed it doesn't like ubuntu... too bad
[12:36] <defrysk> benoka, on a 64 bit version of ubuntu ?
[12:37] <benoka> defrysk, i think it's 32, but how can I check?
[12:37] <danub_> will one of the option codes you gave me turn on line numbers?
[12:37] <defrysk> the default download is set to 32 bit so..
[12:37] <wamng> Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display            Why ???
[12:37] <fatal_> danub_: I don't use line numbers.... :/
[12:37] <danub_> cuz yeah...debugging is a biotch without knowing the line number
[12:38] <jrib> danub_: :he 'number
[12:38] <defrysk> benoka, it seems your bank has a prob with linux of firefox, complain with your bank
[12:38] <danub_> wha?! u dont use line numbers?! *slaps fatal*
[12:38] <fatal_> danub_: that's visible in the status bar and you can just type <linenumber>G in command mode to jump to it, so I don't see the point in having it on every line.
[12:38] <danub_> ahh
[12:38] <jrib> !puregnome | bahr
[12:38] <danub_> ive never used the status bar before
[12:38] <fatal_> line numbers just messes with cut'n'paste.
[12:39] <jrib> fatal_: not if you cut and paste properly
[12:39] <benoka> defrysk, i think it's linux, it works with firefox on win - i'll ask my bank
[12:39] <benoka> defrysk, thanks
[12:39] <defrysk> benoka, good plan
[12:39] <fatal_> jrib: you mean yank and ..... not being able to paste it in any other program then vim itself? ;)
[12:39] <RinTinTigger> is there a tool 4 ubuntu creating an image of a dvd?
[12:40] <danub_> ive not had a problem with cut and paste.... ? shift+y and shift+p...
[12:40] <danub_> ohh, u pasting to different stuff
[12:40] <danub_> that would be why I haven't had a problem
[12:40] <jrib> fatal_: :he registers     look at * and +
[12:40] <blackpearl> how can i remove folders in /media ?? i created one earlier with mkidir  BUT now i want to delete it
[12:40] <benoka> my camera (trust LCD 610) is recognized in cheese but gives no image
[12:40] <erUSUL> RinTinTigger: many. simplest: cat /dev/dvd > /path/to/image.iso
[12:40] <neeto> is there a way to dns resolve a hostname from the command line?
[12:40] <jrib> blackpearl: sudo rmdir /media/WHATEVER
[12:41] <danub_> blackpearl: rmdir or rm -R if there ae files in that directory
[12:41] <defrysk> blackpearl, sudo rm -rf /path/to/folder
[12:41] <erUSUL> RinTinTigger: sudo dd if=/dev/dvd of=/path/to/image.iso
[12:41] <jrib> blackpearl: if you run 'rm -r' it will delete everything inside the folder, which is probably something you mounted
[12:41] <erUSUL> RinTinTigger: or any of the graphical burnong software (brasero; gnomebeker etc)
[12:41] <Tyrath> what's the console equivalent of gnome screen resolution?
[12:41] <jrib> neeto: host or dig
[12:42] <danub_> jrib: yeah but he wants to delete the folder... cant do that if there are files in it :)
[12:42] <jrib> neeto: nslookup
[12:42] <RinTinTigger> erUSUL brasero CANT create an image file from a disk
[12:42] <JohanT> http://paste.ubuntu.com/75928/   hi i need some backup here.. quite new on ubuntu
[12:42] <RinTinTigger> only burn an existing
[12:42] <oskar-> erUSUL, RinTinTigger: cp /dev/dvd /path/file.iso
[12:42] <danub_> ok, im off to setup vim and get my truecrypt pw back
[12:42] <danub_> be back in alittle while
[12:42] <Tyrath> as in nice is to gnome-system-monitor as xxxx is to gnome-screen-resolution
[12:42] <blackpearl> jrib : i created mkdir /media/usbdisk ...now i want to delete usbdisk folder
[12:42] <Tyrath> what is xxxx ?
[12:43] <jrib> blackpearl: run my command
[12:43] <Tyrath> no-one ever changes the res in a terminal?
[12:43] <Tyrath> ok...
[12:43] <jrib> Tyrath: xrandr    I though 'nice' was an adjective there :)
[12:43] <Tyrath> jrib: lol
[12:43] <Tyrath> thanks
[12:43] <Angah> hi..how make script that run in cronjob at the time that set?
[12:44] <jrib> Tyrath: it's more like 'top' is to 'gnome-system-monitor'
[12:44] <defrysk> blackpearl, usb stuff should mount automagically in /media as most stuff is automounted in /media , use /mnt for manually added stuff to mount
[12:44] <jrib> !cron > Angah
[12:44] <Angah> anybody?
[12:44] <jimmysparkle> what do i need install to get the .ssh/ in my home directory?
[12:44] <Tyrath> jrib: ah so top is like nice?
[12:44] <unsightlygod> Could anyone help me with a USB mic, I've got an intel HDA card inside my pc and can't get any sound from the mic, tried arecord, sound recorder, audacity?
[12:44] <erUSUL> RinTinTigger: if you choose "copy Disk" you can choose as destination of the copy and image file so *YES* brasero *CAN* make an image
[12:44] <jrib> Tyrath: try it
[12:45] <JohanT> can some one help me???
[12:45] <jrib> JohanT: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to answer you
[12:45] <JohanT> http://paste.ubuntu.com/75928/  <--- waths wrong???
[12:45] <defrysk> unsightlygod, doubleclick you speaker and check if your mike is muted
[12:45] <RinTinTigger> erUSUL i used the dd command, but the iso is only 400kb large...though its advd
[12:45] <Tyrath> jrib: ah cool. shows me all the ps
[12:45] <jrib> Tyrath: htop is even nicer
[12:46] <JohanT> http://paste.ubuntu.com/75928/  <--- waths wrong???
[12:46] <defrysk> unsightlygod, you can add mike in prefs of volume control if its not there
[12:46] <jrib> fatal_: check out those registers though, it's a pain to copy with a mouse in vim if it spans more than your window anyway
[12:46] <unsightlygod> defrysk: is unmuted but the slider behaves in a wierd way - often when i slide it to 100% it drops down on its own / when i mute or unmute the mic it drops say 25%
[12:46] <jimmysparkle> what should package do i need to install to get the .ssh folder in my home directory? so i can add my ssh key
[12:47] <jrib> jimmysparkle: nothing, just create it
[12:47] <jrib> !ssh > jimmysparkle
[12:47] <defrysk> unsightlygod, not sure what else to do, sorry
[12:47] <Tyrath> jrib: so what's the xrandr of console?
[12:47] <endo602> how can i make ubuntu share a folder from the terminal?

[12:48] <jimmysparkle> thanks
[12:48] <jrib> !samba > endo602
[12:48] <Tyrath> jrib: when I try to run xrandr in console I get a "Can't open display" message. It works in terminal tho
[12:48] <blackpearl> i have created New Primary Slave in Ubuntu (in VBox with Host OS WinXp) and UUID of it is  UUID="fe04dadf-556f-427f-a5f7-e48d32ab7c8d" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" Should i ADD this is in fstab ????

[12:49] <jrib> !framebuffer | Tyrath
[12:49] <benoka> defrysk, my bank says I should install java web browser plugin version 1.6
[12:49] <benoka> defrysk, they say it works with firefox and linux
[12:49] <Tyrath> jrib: I was afraid you'd tell me I'd have to deal with the framebuffer :/
[12:49] <jrib> blackpearl: if you want to add it, add it
[12:49] <jrib> Tyrath: that's the only way I know.  I don't know if you have to
[12:50] <defrysk> !java | benoka
[12:50] <benoka> defrysk, just checked and saw that I have that in firefox
[12:50] <Tyrath> jrib: the framebuffer is all grub related. is there no other way to do it other than on boots? ie, so I can change during a session?
[12:50] <jimmysparkle> jrib: shouldn't the .ssh folder be in my home directory though? as its not there should i just create it?
[12:50] <endo602> sorry bot doesnt answer my question
[12:50] <defrysk> benoka, sorry, mot sure how to help :(
[12:50] <holyguyver> Hello, for some reason Kopete has not been letting me sign into yahoo all day, is happening to anyone else, & how can I fix this? I am running Kopete from KDE3 on Hardy.
[12:50] <jrib> JohanT: you may want to search bugs.ubuntu.com and the upstream zsnes tracker if they have one until someone comes along that can help you
[12:50] <Tyrath> jrib: cause with the framebuffer I always have to restart to fix it up
[12:50] <jrib> Tyrath: don't know
[12:50] <endo602> i need to use terminal to make share, how do i do that
[12:51] <jrib> jimmysparkle: sure.  It probably gets created the first time you ssh somewhere
[12:51] <Tyrath> jrib: see the thing is, console looks perfect - the way i like it, only on boot the ubuntu progress bar gets shoved out of the screen
[12:51] <jrib> Tyrath: checked /etc/usplash.conf ?
[12:51] <Tyrath> jrib: which i guess means the frames are outside the screen :/
[12:51] <Tyrath> jrib: I'll take a look
[12:51] <jimmysparkle> ah yeah, thanks jrib :P
[12:51] <benoka> defrysk, it's ok, it's getting too specific
[12:51] <jrib> endo602: did you read the link ubottu gave you?
[12:52] <endo602> yes
[12:52] <jrib> endo602: and?
[12:52] <endo602> i dont want to mount a share
[12:52] <mall24end> hey
[12:52] <endo602> i want to make a share
[12:52] <benoka> defrysk, thanks for your help
[12:52] <jrib> endo602: there was more than one link...
[12:52] <mall24end> i have probem with my geforce 4 MX
[12:52] <endo602> i know
[12:52] <endo602> i went there
[12:52] <bahr> jrib: Thank you. That is great!
[12:52] <mall24end> can anyone help me pls
[12:53] <erUSUL> !ask
[12:53] <Tyrath> jrib: so how do i determine what my xres and yres should be? should I set them in accord with the framebuffer?
[12:53] <Tyrath> jrib: ie, vga
[12:53] <endo602> i just want to ameka  shared folder from the terminal
[12:53] <jrib> Tyrath: trial and error
[12:53] <Tyrath> jrib: vga is set to 792. I'm not sure exactly what that translates to
[12:54] <Tyrath> jrib: is splash governed by the framebuffer or are they unrelated?
[12:54] <Tyrath> i think 792 is 1280 x 800 but i'm not 100% sure
[12:54] <jrib> Tyrath: that link from ubottu should say
[12:55] <mall24end> I have a problem after upgrade  my kernel and after completed  i find my Geforce 4 MX nbot work properly, my
[12:55]  * Tyrath wishes he could follow links in console mode :/
[12:55] <mall24end> it only low resolution and cant run google earth application asw well
[12:55] <Tyrath> I can output text here from a web page but can't output text from here to a webpage :/
[12:55] <erUSUL> mall24end: how did you installed the drivers you were using?
[12:56] <linxeh> Tyrath: you mean in a virtual console, or in an xterm or something ?
[12:56] <mall24end> i installed when i setup my first ubuntu
[12:56] <Tyrath> linxeh: virtual console
[12:56] <mall24end> and for the frist setup it work well
[12:56] <erUSUL> Tyrath: use a text mode web browser or wget and curl
[12:56] <linxeh> Tyrath: you know about gpm for mouse + cut/paste ?
[12:56] <Tyrath> linxeh: but it's not even that. see in elinks i can perform a multitude of functions

[12:56] <Novanet1> Radio * 3
[12:57] <Tyrath> linxeh: i don't have a mouse in virtual console :/
[12:57] <Novanet1> in the end of radio name is 3
[12:57] <jrib> endo602: 'man net' seem to be what you want
[12:57] <Tyrath> linxeh: i shouldn't need on either
[12:57] <linxeh> Tyrath: ok, fairysnuff :)
[12:57] <Tyrath> linxeh: there's probably some funky key that lets me follow links, or there should be
[12:57] <jrib> endo602: search for "usershare" in that man page
[12:57] <linxeh> Tyrath: you dont need one. just nobody really cares to do the things you are doing, so tools don't support it. perhaps you should write the code that does it
[12:57] <linxeh> :)
[12:57] <Tyrath> linxeh: and if that could integrate elinks with it that would be sweeet
[12:57] <erUSUL> Tyrath: tab ? enter? space?
[12:57] <samphippen> how do I setup luks under ubuntu?

[12:59] <linxeh> Tyrath: if you can program in java you can quite easily learn another language - and adding something to an existing codebase is a very good way of learning the language and that codebase too
[12:59] <erUSUL> mall24end: details here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[12:59] <mall24end> so what     should i have to do for resinstall my driver
[12:59] <Tyrath> linxeh: the closest i get to knowing C (linux's base) is my knowledge of PHP :P
[12:59] <danub_> without vpn'ing into my home network or anything like that?
[12:59] <mall24end> cos it not work from terminal
[13:00] <linxeh> Tyrath: Java is closer to C than PHP
[13:00] <mall24end> thk i ll try
[13:00] <Angah> jrib: oh..now i have to insert my shell scrpt in cronjob
[13:00] <erUSUL> mall24end: run the nvidia installer again instructions in the link i gave
[13:00] <linxeh> Tyrath: and many apps for "linux" aren't in C either :P
[13:00] <Tyrath> linxeh: well being a programming language as opposed to a server side scripting language you are probably right
[13:00] <jrib> Angah: so do it following the instructions there.  Which part isn't clear from the wiki?
[13:01] <Tyrath> linxeh: they're in perl yes?
[13:01] <linxeh> Tyrath: tcl, C++, python, perl, ruby, C# yadda yadda
[13:01] <linxeh> it just depends what the programmer liked
[13:01] <linxeh> :)
[13:01]  * jrib never learned yadda yadda
[13:02] <Tyrath> linxeh: and I kow none of those langs lol
[13:02] <linxeh> jrib: you should try it - managers can understand it
[13:02] <jimmysparkle> I've installed denyhosts on my ubuntu box and everytime i try to ssh to my machine it closes my connection and adds my IP to /etc/hosts.deny - anyone know what im doing wrong?
[13:02] <neeto> How do I open/close ports on my local computer
[13:02] <danub_> linxeh: nah, they understand blah blah, not yadda yadda
[13:02] <jrib> !firewall > neeto
[13:02] <Tyrath> linxeh: I have fiddled with eggdrop so i guess i've had a minute experiance with tcl
[13:02] <linxeh> Tyrath: but as a programmer it is trivial to learn another language - this is getting offtopic though, so #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[13:02] <adam7> neeto: you have to install an application (a server) to open the ports
[13:02] <linxeh> neeto: you could use netcat
[13:02] <danub_> my manager can understand lolcode :P
[13:02] <Tyrath> neeto: firewall is just ufw in shell I think
[13:03] <Tyrath> neeto: I think you need to do ufw enable or something, not quite sure tho
[13:03] <danub_> i think that is what i will start programming in at work... everything will be in lolcode... they would have to keep me around then... or get a sense of humor lol
[13:03] <l3d> I liked firestarter better then ufw
[13:03] <erUSUL> neeto: by default there is no firewall enabled in ubuntu so there is no need to "open" any port
[13:03] <tenX> what does ufw do if activated? got no system here right now to check the iptables rules
[13:03] <jrib> neeto: note that no ports are closed by default by the firewall
[13:03] <l3d> and or gufw which is just the gui
[13:03] <jimmysparkle> I've installed denyhosts on my ubuntu box and everytime i try to ssh to my machine it closes my connection and adds my IP to /etc/hosts.deny - anyone know what im doing wrong?
[13:03] <magnetron> hi, i'm using VLC on Intrepid, but i get no video! just sound. how can i enable video in VLC?
[13:04] <erUSUL> neeto: if there is something listening in any port nothing will block it
[13:04] <neeto> adam7: I ask because I have a server that has opened a port and I don't know what did it. I need to use that port but it's already opened and bound to another program for some reason. I want to find out what port it's using
[13:04] <Tyrath> l3d: what's the bet that firestarter is more resource intensive? :/
[13:04] <adam7> neeto: what port is it?
[13:04] <adam7> neeto: in that case, to close the port, you need to stop the application. most of the time you can figure out what the application is if you know the port number
[13:04] <linxeh> Tyrath: but seriously, why not try learning a bit of C (at least enough to hack something together) - its a good thing to do :)
[13:04] <adam7> I think lsof might help too?
[13:04] <neeto> adam7: 9050, I installed tor, tor is not running, but when I try to run it, it says the port is already bound.
[13:05] <linxeh> neeto: you can find out what is using a port with netstat
[13:05] <adam7> linxeh: that's the one :)
[13:05] <Tyrath> linxeh: because if I start learning C I will forget how to do java. and I've been trained at university to do java :P
[13:05] <adam7> lsof is for files
[13:05] <Angah> i finish add in cronjob using webmin
[13:05] <Angah> thanks all...
[13:05] <neeto> linxeh: I'll try netstat
[13:05] <Tyrath> linxeh: I've forgotten how to do ASP cause I learned PHP
[13:06] <linxeh> Tyrath: sure, but you can pick it up very quickly again if you ever needed to
[13:07] <jrib> neeto: lsof -i :9050
[13:07] <Tyrath> linxeh: I also hate the API documentation :P
[13:07] <Tyrath> - for java that is
[13:07] <erUSUL> !webmin
[13:07] <linxeh> Tyrath: why?
[13:07] <adam7> Tyrath: that makes two of use ;)
[13:07] <neeto> jrib, found it, it was just another tor process that I didn't know was running :/
[13:07] <adam7> s/use/us/
[13:07] <linxeh> the Java API is very well documented
[13:08] <holyguyver> Hello, for some reason Kopete has not been letting me sign into yahoo all day, is happening to anyone else, & how can I fix this? I am running Kopete from KDE3 on Hardy.
[13:08] <Tyrath> adam7: lol
[13:08] <Myrtti> lets keep this channel for pure support issues, if you want to discuss the differences of programming languages and their documentation and such, find another channel, for starters #ubuntu-offtopic and there forward
[13:08] <Tyrath> linxeh: I don't believe they explain the package functions well
[13:09] <linxeh> Tyrath: they define what is needed - the programmers guides explain things in more detail (as do the tutorials). Sadly everyone seems to ignore the programmers guides that come with the API
[13:09] <linxeh> Tyrath: API docs arent supposed to be tutorials too
[13:09] <Tyrath> linxeh: i'll keep that in mind next time I have to code in java
[13:10] <Tyrath> but I haven't coded in java for a year now
[13:10] <linxeh> you've spent a year in PHP ?
[13:10] <linxeh> ouch
[13:10] <hypn0> !dns
[13:10] <Tyrath> infact the last time I coded was in vb, but that was only modification stuff
[13:10] <Tyrath> linxeh: no
[13:10] <linxeh> :P
[13:11] <Tyrath> linxeh: learning PHP wasn't even part of my degree's requirements
[13:11] <Tyrath> linxeh: I had to learn PHP to keep a client happy
[13:11] <Tyrath> linxeh: actually the website hoster for a client
[13:11] <Myrtti> linxeh, Tyrath: go someplace else to discuss the differences of programming languages
[13:12] <Tyrath> Myrtti: sorry
[13:12] <Tyrath> anyhow thanks for the help people
[13:13] <jerrod> how can i get my dell axim x3 Monkrysto work w/ my dell, i have no disk drive

[13:16] <oxdot> adam7: no some apart but aprox. 220G size and i dont have sufficient place to 'dd' around ... is there another possibility ? maybe partimage ?
[13:16] <adam7> oxdot: a quick google search is telling me that the drdy error is actually a SATA error, not a filesystem error, in which case it may be that your HDD is going...
[13:16] <danub_> how can i map my windows key to open my kde menu?
[13:17] <rino> is there an kde 4 expert ?
[13:17] <DeVnOrE> !squid | DeVnOrE
[13:17] <danub_> what do you need rino
[13:18] <paolo_> !list
[13:18] <rino> i want to change network manager package
[13:18] <danub_> to what?
[13:18] <adam7> rino: what do you want to change the network manager package to?
[13:18] <defrysk> rino, kde is mostly in #kubuntu
[13:18] <appserver_> 6+
[13:18] <rino> i think wicd but not running
[13:19] <adam7> rino: what's not running?
[13:19] <danub_> ok, so apt-get install wicd and then apt-get remove knetworkmanager
[13:19] <rino> wicd
[13:19] <adam7> rino: you need to go to http://wicd.net/download.php and follow the instructions there
[13:19] <oxdot> adam7: the drive is ide and overheated yesterday ... i suppose that it is going... no way to use other things insted of 'dd/rescue' ?
[13:20] <danub_> crap, how to i change from away to back in irssi?
[13:20] <danub_> i tried /back but that didn't change it
[13:20] <defrysk>  /back ?
[13:20] <danub_> nope
[13:20] <rino> i have probe with laptop-netconf but wireless work properly and ethernet no
[13:21] <adam7> danub_: just type /away
[13:21] <danub_> still lists me as zZzZ
[13:21] <danub_> ahh
[13:21] <danub_> that did it
[13:21] <j-petitcolas> Hello guys ! I got a very annoying problem: it seems my audio input is directly redirected to my output. Any idea from the origin of this problem?
[13:21] <samphippen> how do I set up whole volume encryption under ibex?
[13:22] <rino> have anyone an ideas ?
[13:22] <adam7> j-petitcolas: that's my favorite feature ;) I think you need to mute something, but I don't remember what it is :/
[13:23] <adam7> j-petitcolas: maybe try muting the line volume
[13:23] <Wayhigh> what command executes while booting that initiates the compiling of kernel modules?
[13:23] <j-petitcolas> adam7: Well... I tried, but if I mute some, I don't have sound anymore... :s
[13:23] <Stavros> how can i set an environment variable if i'm not running bash?
[13:24] <mall24end> still not work
[13:24] <danub_> Stavros: vim /etc/environment?
[13:24] <adam7> j-petitcolas: I take it you're trying to record something?
[13:24] <rino> See you later
[13:24] <rino> bye bye
[13:24] <Stavros> dan_: ah, thanks :/
[13:24] <danub_> granted that is a global environment
[13:24] <Stavros> dan_: does this take effect on login or on bootup?
[13:25] <oxdot> adam7: well ... thks anyway ... bye all
[13:25] <danub_> Stavros: boot
[13:25] <adam7> oxdot: good luck :)
[13:25] <Stavros> danub_: ah, thanks
[13:25] <j-petitcolas> adam7: No : I just wanted to make Skype working. ;) However, there is another wrong thing : when I press on Volume Up on my laptop keyboard, it increases the sound of the microphone. :/
[13:25] <oxdot> adam7: thks ;)
[13:25] <Stavros> has anyone used nomachine's NX?
[13:25] <Aperculum> which virtualization programs support AMD hardware virtualization?
[13:25] <hypn0> the dns change seems to have fixed the problems :-)
[13:25] <adam7> j-petitcolas: No idea about mic volume increasing... I'm installing audacity right now, then I'll be more help :)
[13:26] <hypn0> whoops,wrong channel :-))
[13:27] <maverick340> does FF freeze for anyone while uploading images to flickr ?
[13:27] <hypn0> is apt-xamian-index for synaptic search box only, can I remove it, without affecting synaptic?
[13:29] <hypn0> rebuilding index is buggy and I don't know who's idea it was to add a search box, when there is a search button :-/
[13:29] <mall24end> after update my kernel i have a problem with my VGA display geforce 4 MX m it is not working properly as before
[13:30] <kejing> !list
[13:30] <mall24end> any one can help me
[13:30] <Loganhoup> Could someone please help me, ever since I've upgraded from hardy to ibex I've been having problems with sound. At first something would go wrong and it would lag and cut in and out and now it has quit completely.
[13:31] <Loganhoup> Even running "Alsa force-reload" wouldn't work.
[13:31] <et3> I need to change my default gpg key for my account.  How do I do that?
[13:32] <Loganhoup> system>preferences>encryption and keyrings?
[13:32] <Wayhigh> I have a problem with my alsa modules for intrepid not compiling correctly during a reboot.
[13:34] <GeorgeA> I made an ISO file from a folder on Ubuntu, when I moved the ISO to windows vista (FTP) I mount the iso using Daemon tools, try the autorun it doesn't work (errors) tried the autorun through wine on ubuntu, it worked... Any idea what the problem could be?
[13:35] <GeorgeA> The files, such as README are written in a weird font on windows, but if i try them on Ubuntu they are english readable.
[13:36] <visik7> how can I install 180.08 drivers into intrepid ?
[13:36] <Paddy_EIRE> visik7, what?
[13:36] <visik7> nvidia drivers
[13:37] <Paddy_EIRE> !info envyng
[13:37] <visik7> 180.08 aren't packaged by ubuntu neither with envy
[13:37] <Paddy_EIRE> !envyng
[13:37] <Paddy_EIRE> there
[13:37] <visik7> 180.08 aren't packaged by ubuntu neither with envy
[13:37] <GeorgeA> I think the problem could be that whenever I create an ISO or something, Ubuntu's writing them in a weird font.
[13:37] <Seveas> visik7, then wait for eny to support then, shouldn't take too ling
[13:37] <Seveas> long*
[13:37] <Paddy_EIRE> Seveas, :O
[13:37]  * Paddy_EIRE touches Seveas's face to see if he's real
[13:38] <Seveas> GeorgeA, it's not font but charset usually. Try forcing your editor to use ascii (instead of latin-1, utf-8 or iso-something) and dos/windows lineendings (CRLF) instead of unix lineendings (LF)
[13:39] <cumulus007> Hi. I have installed a Ubuntu Live Installation on a 2 GB USB stick with the built-in tool in Intrepid. This USB installation works fne on my own computer, but it doesn't on another computer I tested. This computer has the same mother board. I'm getting this message from SYSLINUX: Could not find kernel image: linux.
[13:40] <GeorgeA> Seveas, what i did earlier is, I split some files on a server pc, then downloaded them on my Ubuntu, used cat to unsplit them into the iso file, ran it with ubuntu worked fine, moved it through FTP (SmartFTP) on windows it messed up, could it be that SmartFTP is copying it weirdly?
[13:41] <hypn0> that worked, seems to have disabled the search box :-)
[13:41] <Seveas> GeorgeA, yes, that is very well possible. For text files you need to make sure to use TEXT MODE ftp and not BIN MODE. That will make it convert lineendings
[13:42] <GeorgeA> Seveas, iso files are BIN or TEXT?
[13:42] <co0lingFir3> hello, whats the alternative to qgrubeditor in intrepid?
[13:42] <Seveas> GeorgeA, BIN
[13:42] <Loganhoup> Could someone please help me, ever since I've upgraded from hardy to ibex I've been having problems with sound. At first something would go wrong and it would lag and cut in and out and now it has quit completely.
[13:43] <Paddy_EIRE> co0lingFir3, open up synatic package manager and search for grub.. you should be able to locate a couple of grub gui editors
[13:43] <Paddy_EIRE> co0lingFir3, there is also "Bum (boot up manager)"
[13:44] <Bast> DeVnOrE: Hi - Managed to get VMWare running yesterday.  It just needed a reboot. VSocks is noted on various boards as not compiling under kernel 2.6.27 so I was right to ignore it
[13:44] <co0lingFir3> Paddy_EIRE: thx. so whats the closest to qgrubeditor?
[13:44] <GeorgeA> Seveas, alright I re-initiated another FTP session, it's downloading it in BIN format, since am downloading it over wireless and it's big, it'll need around 50 minutes to download. Thanks for your help. I hope it works.
[13:44] <Paddy_EIRE> co0lingFir3, what is qgrubeditor... is it qt based or for kde on a different distro?
[13:45] <yakuzza> hey
[13:45] <Paddy_EIRE> ho
[13:45] <marchhh> what do i have to do if i would use virtual box it dosent wokt on my pc
[13:45] <yakuzza> anyone with virtual box here ?
[13:45] <co0lingFir3> Paddy_EIRE: its a simple editor which i used with gutsy and hardy, but it doesnt seem to be in the repos any more.
[13:45] <Paddy_EIRE> !anyone | yakuzza
[13:46] <Paddy_EIRE> co0lingFir3, could have became depreciated or perhaps you had a repo added yourself
[13:46] <yakuzza> i got trouble sharing my shared folder via nfs :)
[13:46] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm
[13:46] <yakuzza> its an external usb harddrive i wish to share
[13:46] <Paddy_EIRE> ah
[13:47] <yakuzza> i can usual folder but i want one for all
[13:47] <marchhh> do sombody now how i can use my win mobile phone as modem
[13:47] <Paddy_EIRE> marchhh, search the forums for your win mobile
[13:48] <Dekkard> anything on nvidua legacy support?
[13:48] <piksi> is anyone here using kile for writing latex? i'm interested in knowing why it doesn't output scandic letters even with \usepackage[finnish] and \selectlanguage{finnish\ (texlive and kile -finnish packages installed)
[13:49] <Paddy_EIRE> piksi, I do not use kile but you could look at texlive
[13:49] <Seveas> Dekkard, system -> admin -> drivers
[13:50] <Seveas> that'll allow you to select an nvidia version
[13:50] <Paddy_EIRE> !info texlive | piksi
[13:50] <Bast> !info bacula | Bast
[13:51] <Paddy_EIRE> Seveas, keeping well?
[13:52] <oo> RANY
[13:53] <Dekkard> Seveas,  i know.. i just was reading the upgrade faq.. and they say that the open nv driver has weak performance in 6.10
[13:53] <Dekkard> oops 8.10
[13:53] <DeVnOrE> Dekkard goes oldschool
[13:53] <Dekkard> im still running hardy
[13:53] <Seveas> Dekkard, open nv driver still has weak performance, but you can use an older version of the proprietary driver
[13:53] <mgolisch> doesnt it have weak performance all the time?
[13:54] <mgolisch> it doesnt have hardware acceleration
[13:54] <Dekkard> lol mgolisch
[13:54] <remotec> can curlftpfs be set to automatically reconnect if the connection is interrupted?
[13:54] <Paddy_EIRE> remote, what are you doing with it?
[13:54] <saurabh> helllo
[13:54] <Dekkard> hmm// was reading that the nvglx(?) driver doesnt work at all in intrepid
[13:54] <Paddy_EIRE> Dekkard, it does
[13:55] <remote> Paddy_EIRE: what?
[13:55] <Dekkard> hmm

[13:56] <Paddy_EIRE> remotec, so you want a script to remount upon dropping the connection?
[13:56] <lihongyu> fuck  your  mother
[13:56] <jrib> dmulholland: you probably want a fortran channel
[13:56] <holyguyver>  Hello, for some reason Kopete has not been letting me sign into yahoo all day, is happening to anyone else, & how can I fix this? I am running Kopete from KDE3 on Hardy.
[13:56] <saurabh> when i run a program in bash shell having for loop then it shows bad for loop variable
[13:56] <remotec> Paddy_EIRE, yep that would be great
[13:56] <saurabh> hello
[13:56] <dmulholland> jrib, its not terribly active so I thought there might be someone in here who's done it before
[13:57] <Paddy_EIRE> remotec, let me google about for a sec as I am certain someone would have already implemented such a thing
[13:57] <saurabh> helllo
[13:57] <ForceDestroyer> Hi
[13:57] <Paddy_EIRE> saurabh, stop it
[13:57] <saurabh> is there any one
[13:57] <saurabh> he
[13:57] <Paddy_EIRE> !patience | saurabh
[13:57] <remotec> Paddy_EIRE, sure, if you can point me to a link that would be fine :)
[13:57] <Paddy_EIRE> remotec, gimmie a sec
[13:58] <remotec> saurabh, just keep repeating your question, someone will hopefully know the answer eventually :)
[13:58] <jrib> saurabh: or ask a better question (one with more details)
[13:58] <oo> PEKALONGAN
[13:58] <jrib> oo: hi, can we help you?
[13:58] <remotec> saurabh, paste your script into pastebin.com
[13:58] <Seveas> saurabh, look on tldp.org for a bash tutorial. This isn't really a scripting help channel
[14:00] <ikonia> !give ikonia a treat
[14:00] <Paddy_EIRE> remotec, seems to be quite a large number of results http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=curlftpfs+script+mount&btnG=Search&meta=
[14:00] <ubd> hello i can understand a sentence in english if someone can help please msg me
[14:00] <ubd> cant

[14:01] <saurabh> hello
[14:01] <ubd> english
[14:01] <ikonia> ubd: what language do you speak
[14:01] <nyn> hi, how do I remove entries from either autostart or the /home/.config permanently? simply deleting them doesn't work, certain applications are just being autostarted again when I start my machine
[14:01] <benoka> I'm trying to sudo apt-get install and get this error: Unable to lock the download directory
[14:01] <Paddy_EIRE> saurabh, you are starting to annoy ;)
[14:01] <C0p3rn1c> why is ubuntu asking for a ubuntu 8.10 cd when I have 8.04 installed ?
[14:01] <ikonia> benoka: have you got synaptic ok
[14:01] <C0p3rn1c> during updates
[14:01] <ubd> i need to understand an english sentence what am i going to do in the turkish channel
[14:01] <ikonia> C0p3rn1c: look at your sources.list
[14:01] <jrib> C0p3rn1c: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:01] <C0p3rn1c> k
[14:02] <jrib> ubd: this isn't an english help channel
[14:02] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, remove the cd as a repository perhaps before you upgrade :)
[14:02] <oo> PEKALONGAN
[14:02] <benoka> ikonia, no, you're right, it was running another installation, thank you :)
[14:03] <remotec> Paddy_EIRE, none of those scripts address re-mounting on error, maybe adding an fstab entry will help
[14:03] <Paddy_EIRE> remotec, that is what I was thinking
[14:03] <david1> Can anyone help Please?? I went to start up my computer this morning and up came a message saying the Gnome session manager was unable to read the file .......  If this file exists it must be readable by Gone to work properly. The logging in with the failsafe sesion and removing the file. How can I do this?????
[14:03] <Paddy_EIRE> remotec, having it in fstab is more sane to begin with anyway :)
[14:04] <C0p3rn1c> also there is something wrong with my window manager when I enable desktop effects, I tried to reinstall compiz-fusion after I solved a little bug but apperently something whent wrong, now I don't have controls on my windows, no minimize, no maximize or close buttong
[14:04] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, install fusion-icon and emerald
[14:04] <remotec> Paddy_EIRE, it doesn't hurt, but still might encounter the same error, because if the connection is interrupted, the fuse directory may still have to be manually dismounted & remounted
[14:04] <llamakc> C0p3rn1c: install emerald or type `metacity --replace`
[14:05] <david1> Does anyone know how to log in with the failsafe session please????
[14:05] <Paddy_EIRE> remote, ah.. so it would not be specifically a curl problem
[14:05] <C0p3rn1c> llamakc: I had to disable metacity because it dident work anymore with my compiz or somethign :)
[14:05] <remotec> david1, it is an option at the login screen
[14:05] <Paddy_EIRE> david1, reboot then on grub countdown press escape and choose the recovery option
[14:05] <llamakc> C0p3rn1c: then apt-get emerald and use that
[14:05] <benoka> !help build-essential
[14:05] <remotec> Paddy_EIRE, it's somewhere between curl and fuse, probably the best thing to look for is fuse-related scripts, the same problem can occur with sshfs for example
[14:06] <david1> remotec. Many thks for your reply. I didn't have any option. As soon as I started the computer in the usual way up popped this message and I cant do anything except click OK
[14:06] <C0p3rn1c> llamakc: emerald --replace?
[14:06] <Paddy_EIRE> remotec, yeah I would imagine so
[14:06] <llamakc> C0p3rn1c: I believe so. `emerald --replace &`
[14:06] <svippy> How do I upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy?
[14:06] <david1> remotec. How do I reboot on grub! Sorry Im a newbie!!
[14:06] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, fusion-icon will do all that for you
[14:06] <benoka> !info build-essential | benoka
[14:06] <remotec> david1, yeah if you hit okay or continue, then you should be at the regular login screen and select failsafe sesson
[14:06] <C0p3rn1c> ok
[14:06] <llamakc> ahh yes, I forgot about fusion-icon. that's the best way i think
[14:07] <reduz> QUESTION: It seems somehow /dev/nviciactl has a video gorup, but my default user isn't in this group so i couldn't use opengl. this is a default intrepid ibex install, any idea?
[14:07] <nyn> how do I remove entries from either autostart or the /home/.config permanently? simply deleting them doesn't work -.-
[14:07] <ForceDestroyer> Hi there. I'm a frustrated Vista user. I want to try something else, preferrably kubuntu. But I can't get it to work properly. :( Using an Asus R1E Tablet PC, and the most important feature (The Pen/Mouse) doesn't work *at all*.
[14:07] <szymon_g> hi
[14:07] <david1> remotec: Well that didn't happen but I can try again.  If not then should I restart and hit escape when the text comes up... and you say look for recovery option is that right?
[14:08] <szymon_g> anyone plays ET:QW :?
[14:08] <C0p3rn1c> nope the controls are still missing :(
[14:08] <Paddy_EIRE> ForceDestroyer, did you check to see if your device is supported
[14:08] <remotec> david1, what happens when click ok on that warning?
[14:08] <reduz> well nevermind, just added it, but will hve to restart :(
[14:08] <Paddy_EIRE> ForceDestroyer, best come here armed with something
[14:08] <benoka> !info flex
[14:08] <david1> remotec: Nothing happened, but I can try again and see......
[14:08] <C0p3rn1c> Paddy_EIRE: the controls are still missing
[14:08] <remotec> ForceDestroyer, search the forum for that model to see if you need a special driver
[14:09] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, did you install emerald?
[14:09] <ForceDestroyer> Paddy_EIRE: hard to tell what it is exactly. Some WACOM Tablet with an USB interface. They *should* be supported somehow.
[14:09] <C0p3rn1c> Paddy_EIRE: I tried fusion-icon and emerald --replace &
[14:09] <benoka> !info bison
[14:09] <remotec> ForceDestroyer, also if you are totally new to linux then i'd suggest the normal version of ubuntu, but kubuntu should work okay
[14:09] <C0p3rn1c> Paddy_EIRE: yes , I just did before I installed fusion-icon
[14:09] <Paddy_EIRE> ForceDestroyer, yeah but it involves mostly manually compiling the driver for newer tabletpcs
[14:09] <remotec> david1, see what happens after you click okay, if that message appears again, or get the login screen
[14:09] <Paddy_EIRE> c0mp13371331337, then logout
[14:09] <Paddy_EIRE> errr C0p3rn1c
[14:10] <C0p3rn1c> Paddy_EIRE: oh wait sorry, I just replaced my window manager
[14:10] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, fusion-icon probably does not see that emerald is installed
[14:10] <C0p3rn1c> Paddy_EIRE: I seem to have controls now
[14:10] <Paddy_EIRE> ah
[14:10] <ForceDestroyer> I did that manual compile, however I failed. Since I *am* new to Linux, I could have made any mistake anywhere, but it could also be that the driver's not working properly... no idea
[14:10] <david1> remotec: I will shutdown and start again to see what happens. If I don't get anything should I shutdown and at prompt press escape and look for recover plan?
[14:10] <ForceDestroyer> Someone got it to work on this machine, wrote a tutorial, and even following that step-by-step brings no result :/
[14:11] <Paddy_EIRE> ForceDestroyer, I had to install wacoms for quite a few people
[14:11] <remotec> david1, what do you see there now?
[14:11] <C0p3rn1c> thx for all the help guys
[14:11] <david1> remotec: If I shut down then I will have to disconnect and won't get anything.
[14:11] <remotec> ForceDestroyer, what tutorial are you following?
[14:11] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, sure
[14:11] <david1> remotec: I'll shutdown and come back later ok?
[14:11] <remotec> david1, so you were able to login okay and it is running now?
[14:12] <ForceDestroyer> remotec: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AsusR1E
[14:12] <david1> remotec: Only because I logged in with my other user name and not the normal one
[14:12] <mber> Hello everybody - I have just installed Ubuntu 8.04 LTS - I am glad to join the community. I had Fedora Core 5 earlier, then for a while no Linux :-( because only using PC at work = Windows :-(( not all employers are clever ;-) now - I am very happy to have chosen Ubuntu, great! I will have a couple of questions, to start... if anyone is willing to help ... here I go ...
[14:12] <C0p3rn1c> Paddy_EIRE: but why are my controls gone when I select compiz as my window manager?
[14:12] <remotec> david1, ok that is fine, there is no need to reboot yet
[14:12] <ForceDestroyer> Oh, gtg for a moment. I'll come back to nag you a little more l8er
[14:12] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, compiz is only the window manager
[14:13] <Dillizar> !bin
[14:13] <walkout> i am tryin to install ubuntu..in my external hard drive...with vista... but while installing i dont see option to install ubuntu, in external hard drive...
[14:13] <remotec> david1, the question is to figure out what is broken with your main user profile
[14:13] <david1> remotec: I don't know why this error comes up on my normal login. thk heavens I had the other login available otherwise...... ????
[14:13] <Santolina> hello ... I am a complete newbie ... I have a Ubuntu server with no graphical environment, and for some reason a couple of hours ago the images folder content (several subfolders with hundreds of jpegs) has DISSAPEARED ... the rest seems to be OK (Apache conf, PHP scripts and MySQL tables) ... any clues of which log files should I check in order to know if somebody has hacked my server?
[14:13] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, you still need to pick a window decorator.. (metacity or emerald)
[14:13] <Dillizar> !.bin
[14:13] <remotec> david1, have you made any recent changes to your system?
[14:13] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, or kwin if you use kde
[14:13] <remotec> david1, if you did not have a 2nd user, that is when the failsafe session would be helpful
[14:13] <david1> remotec: Last night I was playing around with things and suppose I did something I shouldn't have done!!!!
[14:14] <Dillizar> what is the easyest way to run a .bin filke
[14:14] <Saint1993> How comes playing Youtube clips is very laggy?
[14:14] <remotec> david1, lol, sounds like it, what sort of things did you change?
[14:14] <Paddy_EIRE> Dillizar, a bin file could be anything what is it
[14:14] <C0p3rn1c> Paddy_EIRE: I have selected emerald as decorator
[14:14] <llamakc> Dillizar: `sh nameof.bin`
[14:14] <Paddy_EIRE> C0p3rn1c, cool
[14:14] <david1> remotec: Sorry I just don't remember now......
[14:14] <C0p3rn1c> Paddy_EIRE: also my desktop cube isnt working anymore :$
[14:15] <david1> remotec: I have been having problems with k3b and know I deleted this
[14:15] <Paddy_EIRE> llamakc, that will not necessarily correct
[14:15] <Paddy_EIRE> *be
[14:15] <snikker> i'm tring to compile kernl from ubuntu source, but when i type "make-kpkg clean", i've got "make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux/arch/xen/Makefile'.  Stop.", i'm under amd64. What's wrong?
[14:15] <remotec> david1, hmm well how did you delete it?
[14:15] <mber> It concerns Parallels. I have searched everywhere but I can't find how to solve this. I have run parallels-config as sudo, then it keeps saying I have not (in spite of the terminal confirming it was successful): It keeps saying module vm-main not found and "not configured for running kernel" any suggestions? thank you in advance
[14:15] <david1> with Synaptic
[14:15] <Saint1993> How comes playing Youtube clips is very laggy?
[14:15] <llamakc> Paddy's correct, it depends on the file. what bin are you trying to run
[14:15] <david1> remotec: With Synaptic
[14:15] <remotec> david1, ok that should be no problem, anything else?
[14:15] <Paddy_EIRE> llamakc, a bin file could be anything... running it without knowing what it is first randomly is bad advice
[14:15] <Santolina> how can I see if somebody has run a rm command recently?
[14:16] <Tibloko> hi! Help me =) How i can install Ubuntu 8.1 in the mimimum configuration?
[14:16] <Letter_Z> I have a completely blank hard drive, which apparently has a screwed up MBR. I have written the Ubuntu ISO to a disk using MagicISO and used the boot menu to tell my computer to boot from CD but it wont and goes to boot from hard drive and asks me Ubuntu or XP(Because I tried to install Ubuntu via a dock), if I select Ubuntu it takes me into some Grub thing.
[14:16] <HxC_> hey,,guy..i have a prob using lpr command line
[14:16] <Letter_Z> Anyway, I'm writing a new CD to try that
[14:16] <remotec> ForceDestroyer, did you have any errors while following that guide?
[14:16] <Santolina> which log files should I check in order to know if somebody has hacked my server?
[14:16] <david1> remotec: I can't remember what else
[14:16] <david1> remotec: Would the recover plan help me do you think?
[14:17] <Letter_Z> But the question is, can I instal via a dock(Just copy the system files across) or do I have to to it via CD?
[14:17] <Paddy_EIRE> Letter_Z, come back when you have a question rather than running commentary on the support channel :P
[14:17] <konner> Whats the apt-get command for Java download
[14:17] <Paddy_EIRE> !java | konner
[14:17] <Letter_Z> I had two questions
[14:17] <Letter_Z> And asked them
[14:17] <Schneider> question, anyone knows , how to remote access system(ubuntu).
[14:17] <remotec> david1, worst case you can make a new user and copy your settings over, but if you can remember what might have gotten broken then there can be an easier way
[14:17] <Letter_Z> But the question is, can I instal via a dock(Just copy the system files across) or do I have to to it via CD?
[14:17] <Letter_Z> The other question is: Why the hell wont it work?
[14:18] <Paddy_EIRE> Letter_Z, you can install via usb
[14:18] <Letter_Z> Okay, how?
[14:18] <david1> remotec: Encouraging news - thks
[14:18] <Paddy_EIRE> !install | Letter_Z
[14:18] <Schneider> question, anyone knows , how to remote access system(ubuntu). i mean remote logon
[14:18] <remotec> Schneider, check out System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop
[14:18] <david1> remotec: I seem to remember I could only use two users and they are used up so I cant make another one can I?
[14:19] <walkout> ?
[14:19] <ravn1> hi ppl. Actually I\m a bit sick of Ubuntu at the moment. Im trying to install latest version on a Fujitsu Siemens Lefibook E8110 and Iv had like 4 different fails in different stages. This seems quite unacceptable to me. Debian etch installs w.o. problems, but the wireles dosnt work, and so on, so I would actually prefer ubuntu if possible...
[14:19] <remotec> david1, you can make as many users as you like :)
[14:19] <Schneider> remotec, thx
[14:19] <JordanC> Hi folks, I've installed flash on intrepid using the deb installer, and flash seems to skip a lot, or lose sync. (Ubuntu 8.10, Using an ATi w/ ATI/AMD Proprietary FGLRX driver & compiz enabled)
[14:19] <enquest> How can I do something like this: bar = "organization__istartswith"; obj_lst = Foo.objects.filter(bar=request.GET.get('q')) ... How can I make the bar dynamic in my query
[14:19] <HxC_> lpr???why cannot work on ubuntu????/pliz help me....
[14:19] <JordanC> Any idea what the cause of the skipping/desync is?
[14:20] <Flimm> Open movie editor's playback flickers, any suggestions?
[14:20] <remotec> JordanC, did you use a .deb or Synaptic?
[14:20] <david1> remotec. OK many thks. I will give this a try OK.
[14:20] <Flimm> I've disabled compiz
[14:20] <Paddy_EIRE> JordanC, why did you use a deb instead of installing from the repo
[14:20] <Paddy_EIRE> ?
[14:20] <Paddy_EIRE> JordanC, stick with supported methods
[14:21] <remotec> david1, sure thing, all the user config files are in /home/username/ and the hidden directories start with a .
[14:21] <NishaKitty> um hi, I have a problem with Konversation under ubuntu (not kubuntu) I installed Opera from a deb package and it's taken control as the default browser I changed it back to Firefox with "Prefered Applications" and Ichanged sensible-browser back to Firefox as well but Konversation is still using Opera how do I fix it?
[14:21] <JordanC> Which repo includes the flash plugin?
[14:21] <JordanC> I tried to install it, but the repo it had defaulted to didn't have it
[14:21] <Paddy_EIRE> JordanC, its called adobe-flash
[14:21] <Paddy_EIRE> !info adobe-flash
[14:21] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm
[14:21] <Paddy_EIRE> sec
[14:21] <mber> ravn1, I can't see you're upset with ubuntu and I can understand, I also think that there is nothing compulsory here so if you're better off with another distibution, please go ahead - this IRC room is not meant to be on pros and cons of distribution, if I remember well, there is some IRC and fora on that, just check www.linux.org
[14:22] <LjL> what's this thing with adobe-flash, second time i see it
[14:22] <LjL> but there's patently no such package
[14:22] <mber> ravn1 I meant "I can see"
[14:22] <Paddy_EIRE> !info adobe-flashplugin
[14:22] <Paddy_EIRE> heh
[14:22] <LjL> !info flashplugin-nonfree | i think this one *is* still around...
[14:22] <Letter_Z> Paddy_EIRE, I don't have a USB big enough for that. What I do have is the black hard drive of my other laptop, a dock and this computer. What I am asking is: Can I use the USB Dock to plug in my other harddrive and install ubuntu to that from this computer?
[14:23] <JordanC> Paddy_EIRE:  ;)
[14:23] <jrib> LjL: the adobe package?  they provide debs now
[14:23] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, hehe
[14:23] <JordanC> Paragon of advice there :D
[14:23] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[14:23] <LjL> jrib: not in our repositories apparently
[14:23] <jrib> LjL: right
[14:23] <mber> hello, someone willing to help me on Parallels on ubuntu?
[14:24] <JordanC> I might try Gnash
[14:24] <ravn1> mber> yes, I understand that i sound like a winder, but the thing is a really like ubuntu when its working, and I have used debian for long time, so I feel comfortable with this os class. So I would really like to manage to install everything...
[14:24] <remotec> JordanC, did you enable the multiverse repository?
[14:24] <remotec> gnash doesn't work too well with most websites
[14:24] <JordanC> Yeah, I did remotec
[14:24] <Dillizar> !past
[14:25] <Dillizar> where can i past
[14:25] <NishaKitty> ok another question how do I change the default web browser for kde without using kcontrol or installing kde since I'm using gnome x.x ?
[14:25] <llamakc> !paste
[14:26] <Paddy_EIRE> NishaKitty, you will have to specify it in the kde app that you are using that is calling the default kde browser
[14:26] <Paddy_EIRE> NishaKitty, most likely per app
[14:26] <remotec> JordanC, you don't see flashplugin-nonfree in synaptic?
[14:26] <JordanC> I'll take a look now
[14:26] <NishaKitty> Konversation
[14:26] <Skyrail> Is there a way to have an icon on my desktop so that when I open it up it opens up the terminal with an ssh connection to a preset place asking me just the the password?
[14:26] <NishaKitty> and there are no settings for it Paddy_EIRE
[14:26] <NishaKitty> I checked over and over
[14:26] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm
[14:26] <Werenerd> powertool08: wow, are you really still here?
[14:26] <remotec> Skyrail, sure, you can do it with a launcher or a script
[14:27] <mber> ravn1, no I did not mean to say what you "sounded like", just that this is - if I ain't wrong - not necessarily a place to voice one's (legitimate) frustrations but rather to ask questions / provide answers. But that's just an opinion.
[14:27] <Paddy_EIRE> NishaKitty, I could swear its there
[14:27] <JordanC> Ah, I see it there
[14:27] <JordanC> I'll remove this one, then replace it with that
[14:27] <NishaKitty> I've searched google for ages to change the default kde web browser without using the gui and nothing
[14:27] <JordanC> It's not really that huge an issue at the moment; a rare occurrence
[14:27] <LinkOps> anyone know about sysreports
[14:27] <Skyrail> remotec: well it's good to know it can be done :) just got to do some googling :D
[14:28] <Saint1993> How can i find out what my wireless adapter is called? And see if its installed.
[14:28] <erUSUL> Saint1993: iwconfig on a terminal
[14:28] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, perhaps I have the "adobe-flashplugin" from medibuntu... I mean apart from having that enabled I also have an OOo3 ppa added and I dont believe they would include it?
[14:28] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, ah.. apt-cache policy :)
[14:28] <ravn1> mber: yes, I agree.
[14:28] <Paddy_EIRE> \O//
[14:29] <LjL> Paddy_EIRE: it might be medibuntu... or you might have installed the .deb that apparently adobe itself now provides
[14:29] <remotec> Skyrail, yep indeed, just get the right repository enabled and refresh the sources, then you should see the flashplugin-nonfree package listed
[14:29] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, hmm
[14:29] <LjL> Paddy_EIRE: i'd still say flashplugin-nonfree is the supported way, though (see "automatic updates")
[14:29] <mber> It concerns Parallels. I have searched everywhere but I can't find how to solve this. I have run parallels-config as sudo, then it keeps saying I have not (in spite of the terminal confirming it was successful): It keeps saying module vm-main not found and "not configured for running kernel" any suggestions?
[14:29] <erUSUL> Skyrail: gnome-terminal -e 'command' in this case gnome-terminal -e 'ssh you@someplace'
[14:29] <Skyrail> remotec: wrong person I think >_>
[14:30] <lise> does anyone here speak russian?
[14:30] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, http://archive.canonical.com intrepid/partner Packages  <IP_ADDRESS>-1intrepid2 0
[14:30] <tim167> hello, i need help with remote desktop. how do i connect to a machine that is not on my local network ?
[14:30] <Paddy_EIRE> :P
[14:30] <Skyrail> Thank you erUSUL, I've no idea where to look for that sort of information (as in what params programs take etc.)
[14:30] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, partners
[14:30] <erUSUL> Skyrail: no problem
[14:31] <LinkOps> tim167: you would need to know the remote pc curtrent IP address
[14:31] <NishaKitty> Paddy_EIRE: found it thanks x.x
[14:31] <remotec> Skyrail, oops yeah :)
[14:31] <Paddy_EIRE> NishaKitty, cool
[14:31] <geolr> Hi all, I have some problems accessing my NAS device using smb. I used "Connect to server" then the Desktop-icon appears very shortly and vanishes. Using an IP instead of the name does not change it. It used to work with Hardy... Using smbclient on the console is not OK either. Where can I grab this problem? Configure smbclient or smbfs?
[14:31] <NishaKitty> *has been trying to fix it for 2 hours and feelings totally stupid now*
[14:31] <NishaKitty> >.<
[14:31] <Paddy_EIRE> NishaKitty, yeah that will be something you will have to contend with when you mix kde and gnome apps... which is no biggie in my book :)
[14:31] <LinkOps> geolr: have you tried to FTP into it via web browser to ensure its accessable
[14:32] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, just enable the canonical partners repository
[14:32] <NishaKitty> Paddy_EIRE: when I installed ibex it shows up in the applications list in gnome for add and remove programs x.x
[14:32] <ravn1> I wonder if there is any way to put a trigger (or look in a log) for all files accessed by a program. lsof doesnt work for me since I cant make it run at the same time as the program (quickly) access some file
[14:33] <marshall> ive just installed phpmyadmin, how do i use it?
[14:33] <LinkOps> ravn1: if your looking in a log you should be able to use the find tool of the editor
[14:33] <remotec> marshall, go to http://localhost/phpmyadmin in your browser
[14:34] <marshall> remotec, thanks
[14:34] <LjL> Paddy_EIRE: ah it's in partner? fine then
[14:34] <cheeps> Im having trouble with lirc - hauppauge hvr-1110, ubuntu 8.10 and 2.6.27-8-generic kernel. When i try starting lirc with /etc/init.d/lirc start it gives me: "Unable to load LIRC kernel modules.". checked dmesg and saw now errors with lirc, only thing there was "lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61"
[14:35] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, yeah remove the other package first the process otherwise aint pretty
[14:35] <ravn1> LinkOps> im not looking in a log, I want to create a log entry for every file a certain program touches... or tries to touch
[14:35] <LjL> Paddy_EIRE: well i'm not going to install it myself since i don't even have intrepid, but will keep that in mind
[14:35] <erUSUL> ravn1: you can watch a directory (subtree) for changes with inotify
[14:35] <remotec> cheeps, it might already be running, use "ps aux | grep lirc" to check the process list
[14:35] <Paddy_EIRE> LjL, I was wondering why it was not crashing... I guess kudos to adobe.. FINALLY
[14:36] <inkubus08> other then /etc/init.d/networking (any combination to restart)....... is there any other way to restart my networking interfaces.... whenever my desktop (8.10) comes out of hibernation i am not able to get a network connection until i restart the machine.
[14:37] <geolr> LinkOps: Yes, it is there (needed to reset my password...). Can I somewhere gather info about the cause of the crash of smbclient/smbfs? Does it have something to do with gvfs? Thank you!
[14:38] <LinkOps> geolr: no idea mate i just knew how to elimante the possibility of it being a network issue although im sure someone else here may know of a log or 2 you could check
[14:38] <geolr> LinkOps: Well and there is no password on the shared folder. It is a PackardBell Netstore device, not highst quality, I know.
[14:39] <filthpig> Hi, can somebody help me figure out how to get my bluetooth headset to work with ibex? I sort-of got it to work on hardy, but things seems to have changed with ibex.. I've tried various guides and howtos, but to no avail..
[14:39] <Nalleman> help please. My windows cant boot and thus my home directory cant be reached either from window or linux. When I try to mount it manually i get this info http://paste.ubuntu.com/75966/. should i try to "force" the mount, is thera any risk with this action?
[14:40] <LinkOps> geolr: I'm sure there are far more worst brands you could have brought (freecom to mention one) at least its a reputable (ish) company just keep your reciept. some cheap externals have a minor design floor which can cause overheating of components
[14:40] <erUSUL> Nalleman: use ntfsfix from ntfsprogs on the partition
[14:41] <geolr> LinkOps: good to hear :-)
[14:41] <shiyoung> hihi
[14:41] <Nalleman> erUSUL, what is ntfsfix and ntfsprogs?
[14:41] <mber> Nalleman, if your windows can't boot, I would take the risk (i have taken it) but in some cases your Windows may not be working anymore. However, if it is already not booting you need to rescue it anyway, so I would do it - but it IS risky
[14:41] <Dillizar> i need help with installing a JMF
[14:41] <erUSUL> Nalleman: ntfs is a command that comes in ntfsprogs package
[14:41] <erUSUL> Nalleman: ntfsfix is a command that comes in ntfsprogs package
[14:41] <LinkOps> geolr: i've had to buy soo many circuit boards from seagate because there mesh internal design on there maxtor externals ends up touching and blowing a little chip
[14:42] <Nalleman> mber, i dont care about window, i just care about my data
[14:42] <co_18_fs> nick/ rull
[14:42] <geolr> Nalleman: Being no expert on this... Did you boot of a CD? This is what I would try first.
[14:43] <Dillizar> !JMF
[14:44] <Dillizar> !java media framework
[14:44] <Nalleman> geolr, did you mean boot windows with a CD? if so, no. i dont have a bootable windows (xp) cd
[14:44] <mber> Nalleman, my experience is limited, but your data should in principle be safe is you force mount. did your windows freeze or crash? when it does, it leaves, so to speak, things "mounted" so that you cannot mount, as if it were blocked on something. When you force (in principle) you simply force detachment - that's what I did - but it is true that it is NOT 100% safe... but then again, what is?
[14:44] <pickett> anyone know how i'd re-enable gdm? i deselected it in services by mistake
[14:44] <pickett> and it wont let me unlock it
[14:45] <erUSUL> pickett: sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults
[14:45] <pickett> thx
[14:45] <Nalleman> mber, it crashes. it says something about dumping memory or such
[14:45] <mber> nalleman, post-scriptum, all my data was safe, and I did it a couple of times, latest today
[14:45] <mber> nalleman, that's what I expected, yes
[14:46] <geolr> Nalleman: there are Boot-CDs which run a Windows-Environment (BootPE), I think it is called Ultimate Boot CD. That might be a worth a try, even though you would need to download and burn it.
[14:46] <LinkOps> Nalleman: have you tried tapping F8 and doing safe mode to see if it persists
[14:46] <Nalleman> LinkOps, Yes, failsafe mode gives same result
[14:47] <LinkOps> Nalleman: ewww not good . . . personally do anything you like to it to get the data back maybe install windows on a second HDD and access it from there would be more failsafe (sorry to not use linux)
[14:47] <geolr> On my SMB-Issue: I found a samba-directory under /var/log. All log files seem to be empty... so do i need to enable logging? Is /etc/smb.conf the right place to start?
[14:48] <DeVnOrE> geolr: nah
[14:48] <LinkOps> geolr: more than likely. you just need to change the log setting but cant remember the coding for it
[14:48] <DeVnOrE> should be logging as standard
[14:48] <mber> Nalleman, I might be wrong, but apart from taking your hard disk out and doing with some special tools there is relatively little else to do than force mount to retrieve your data - I insist - I might be wrong - so it really depends on the value of your data - it worked OK for me - but I have not done it 100,000 times to be statistically safe ;-)
[14:48] <LinkOps> geolr - debnore: would he not need to change the logging level?
[14:49] <remotec> Nalleman, the data that could be lost if you force mount is only if a file was being written in windows when it crashed
[14:49] <Nalleman> mber, right. I would not put you responsible.. :)  i just try to find out my alternatives..
[14:50] <remotec> Nalleman, if that is important then use the ntfsprogs fixntfs
[14:50] <limin100714> 有人在吗？
[14:50] <mber> nalleman, thank you, good luck
[14:50] <geolr> I have one file in /var/log/samba with a nome like: log.wb->my_hostname> but it is empty. In smb.conf I find syslog = 0 which should be OK (?), so anything goes into these files.
[14:50] <marcos_> buenas nin
[14:50] <Nalleman> mber, thanks :)
[14:50] <LjL> !cn | limin100714
[14:51] <marcos_> como va todo
[14:51] <LinkOps> Nalleman: as i mentioned earlier if you have a spare low GB HDD laying around do a fresh install on that and connect your main HDD after to access and retrieve. You may need to change/take ownership of the files tho
[14:51] <LjL> !es | marcos_
[14:51] <Shutter_> hey all i was in here yesterday and someone mentiond to me about ebox
[14:51] <Shutter_> does anyone know anything about that?
[14:51] <remotec> geolr, are you sure smbclient is crashing, or just not mounting the directory properly?
[14:52] <erUSUL> !ebox | Shutter_
[14:52] <geolr> Well smb.conf is to be used if I want to share something from the Intrepid box. But i am trying to mount a remote share... Any hints on how to gather info via the console command?
[14:52] <remotec> geolr, try putting the address in nautilus like smb://user:pass@ip/
[14:52] <Nalleman> LinkOps, right now i just have a 320 GB extern driver with some backup. a bootable xp recovery cd maybe could do the trick
[14:52] <Shutter_> erUSUL i know that. but i was just logged into to it and there is nothing really inside the administrative side
[14:53] <remotec> geolr, yes if you are trying to mount a remote directory i wouldn't mess with smb.conf
[14:53] <erUSUL> Shutter_: you have to install the various plugins
[14:53] <erUSUL> !find ebox
[14:53] <tim167> hi can anyone help me connect to a remote desktop ? thanks !
[14:53] <Shutter_> erUSUL so like ebox-apach
[14:53] <erUSUL> Shutter_: you see 14 modules
[14:53] <LinkOps> Nalleman: The backup recovery CD is more than likely to override all data on the disk and thus i would not recomend that before data retrieval
[14:53] <Shutter_> ebox-mysql5server?
[14:53] <remotec> tim167, what software is running on the remote computer?
[14:54] <LinkOps> tim167: do you know what the IP address is of the remote machine
[14:54] <tim167> LinkOps: yes but when i enter it i get 'connection closed'
[14:54] <remotec> Nalleman, unless you were in the middle of saving an important file when Windows crashed, i would just force the drive mount, it has worked okay for me in the past
[14:54] <Acedip> how to play .rmvb files in ubuntu, preferably in vlc/totem
[14:54] <DeVnOrE> geolr: got it working?
[14:54] <tim167> remotec: i am running the default ubuntu remote desktop apps on both computers
[14:55] <tim167> remotec: the remote computer is on the other side of the world :)
[14:55] <DeVnOrE> tim167: firewalled?
[14:55] <tim167> remotec: i instructed that person to set remote desktop to allow remote control
[14:55] <remotec> tim167, ah ok, probably you need to set the router on the remote computer's network to forward traffic from a certain port
[14:55] <Nalleman> remotec probably its the easiest way.. should i use the command stated  here http://paste.ubuntu.com/75966/ (choice 2)?
[14:55] <LinkOps> tim167: see if you can get VNC Server installed on the remote machine (tightvnc) and then get a vnc client on ur machine and use the ip address
[14:55] <erUSUL> Shutter_: install them via synaptic
[14:55] <remotec> tim167, do you know how to ssh to the remote machine?
[14:55] <erUSUL> !pm | Shutter_
[14:56] <geolr> hmmm, I tried smbclient. Can I use the IP to avoid any name-resolving-issues? I'll try nautilus too.
[14:56] <tim167> DeVnOrE, i don't know, how can i find out ?
[14:56] <tim167> remotec: no i don't really, is it hard to do ?
[14:56] <Shutter_> where were those plugins at
[14:56] <DeVnOrE> if you can't connect it's possible that your friend has a router/firewall solution in place
[14:56] <remotec> Nalleman, yep that is what i would do, unless you know that an important file was in the middle of being written when windows crashed
[14:57] <Acedip> how to play .rmvb files in ubuntu, preferably in vlc/totem movie palyer, when i tried it playing with movie player, since it didnt have the codecs so it called the search for suitable codec, but didnt find the codec, said
[14:57] <remotec> tim167, it is easy, the tricky part is getting the router or routers configured on your network and the remote network
[14:57] <Shutter_> any help?
[14:57] <Nalleman> remotec, i havent used windows in ages, it crashed when i tried to boot so no file should been written
[14:58] <DeVnOrE> i always setup so that i have to use ssh with vnc (for security reasons) but that requires that you also got a account on the box
[14:58] <tim167> remotec: ok, I don't have alot of knowledge about router configureation :/
[14:58] <remotec> tim167, basically the person that you are connecting to should forward port 22 to their computer, then you can use ssh to connect and then remote desktop will work
[14:58] <LinkOps> tim167: if you search on google - port forarding (router model number) .. that should get u a walkthrough
[14:58] <remotec> Nalleman, yeah i'd go ahead and force the mount, then copy off the important files
[14:58] <DeVnOrE> tim167: you got a account on the box?
[14:58] <tim167> LinkOps: ok, i hope the person can find out her router model number...
[14:58] <geolr> When I connect with smbclient //box/share I get an smb:\ prompt. After typing ls I get an Segmentation fault... And the info-line like: Domain=[ȇ] OS=[] Server=[���] does look weird. Might this be a problem?
[14:58] <Nalleman> remotec, i just did. it worked... :)
[14:58] <Shutter_> i believe portfowarding.com r portfoward.com is the website you are looking for
[14:59] <Nalleman> now windows is no more... :)
[14:59] <TDJACR> Hi
[14:59] <tim167> Shutter_: i'll check it out
[14:59] <DeVnOrE> Nalleman: trevligt
[14:59] <TDJACR> Is there an op here?
[14:59] <remotec> tim167, yeah that is the tricky part, it is not too difficult just that everyone usually has a slightly different router
[14:59] <geolr> Error message is: cli_list_new: Error: unable to parse name from info level 1
[14:59] <Shutter_> tim167 two thing, one i am not primising htat is the website and two have you used ebox before?
[14:59] <cheeps> remotec: nah, lirc is not running, irw gives me connection refused too.
[14:59] <remotec> tim167,  you can experiment with your router to learn more
[15:00] <rmn> i've got two 1TB-drives in ext3 on LVM (striped) on cryptsetup, and getting horrible performance, usually no more than 20MB/s with 20% CPU-usage.  with debian and xfs on LVM on cryptsetup I got 70-80 MB/s.  what could be wrong? too small stripe size? other parameters?
[15:00] <TDJACR> Can someone look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=990904 , I'd like a second opinion
[15:00] <tim167> Shutter_: never heard of ebox, what's that ?
[15:00] <remotec> Nalleman, great to hear :)
[15:00] <geolr> Maybe switch my UTF-8 terminal to ISO-8859-15 ?
[15:00] <LinkOps> tim167: if you only need it for today you could try logmein remote on a trial basis
[15:00] <Shutter_> administration of a server
[15:00] <Shutter_> and ineed some help with it
[15:01]  * DeVnOrE istructs tim167 to feel and explore his router.
[15:01] <tim167> LinkOps: i would need it for more than today...
[15:01] <mikebeecham> can I ask a quick question please....if I am able to get into IRC and see chat taking place, but cannot browse ANY websites...would that be Ubuntu or my ISP?
[15:01] <remotec> maybe there is some program that configure the port forwarding using UPnP?
[15:01] <DeVnOrE> tim167: use the logmein and setup the permanent solution
[15:01] <Shutter_> !ebox
[15:01] <LinkOps> tim167: bare with me a second i know its like a 15day trial just getting you the address for it
[15:02] <remotec> mikebeecham, weird problem, it could possibly be either
[15:02] <tim167> LinkOps: ok cool
[15:02] <mikebeecham> remotec: when I use network tools to ping a URL it keeps going grey
[15:03] <JmCourir> Hi to all, Any of you know how to change the default path of the folder Images in Gnome ?
[15:04] <LinkOps> tim167: www.logmeinrescue.com you set an account up get a job reference pin and give that to your friend. he then goes to www.123rescue.com and types the pin then you can take control so long as he accepts everything (URL's could be wrong)
[15:04] <larson9999> i gave up on intrepid because the 3d drivers didn't support n17.  i see fedora 10 seems to have worked that out and my n17 has 3d on it. anyone here know if n17 have 3d on intrepid now?
[15:04] <tim167> LinkOps: ok I'll definitely try it out thanks
[15:04] <LinkOps> tim167: worst case if your account trial expires just register a different email address.
[15:05] <tim167> LinkOps: neat :)
[15:06] <LinkOps> tim167: If your going to be giving constant remote assistance to this machine i would also recommend www.logmein.com as you can have a free account with them
[15:07] <zesu> hello every one
[15:07] <LalaLand> hello zesu
[15:08] <zesu> :)
[15:08] <Shutter_> how do you isntall the expansion modules for ebox?
[15:09] <joaopinto> Shutter_, if they were installed from  a repository, you remove them using the package manager
[15:09] <kakushin_> how much is enough for a /boot partition?
[15:09] <geolr> If I try Nautilus like smb://test@IP then I get the shared folders. If I try to open one of them, Nautilus goes back to my ~. My NAS (Packardbell Netstore) has a list of folders and a list of the shared folders, where I could set a password. But no username?! Do I need a username with this smbclient-version?
[15:09] <Shutter_> joaopinto they are in ebox
[15:10] <Shutter_> i just installed ebox but hte expanson modules do not install wtih them
[15:10] <joaopinto> Shanix_, you could try asking on #ebox, I believe they have a channel here...
[15:10] <tim167> LinkOps, thanks, checking now...
[15:10] <LinkOps> tim167: welcome :)
[15:10] <benoka> my company laptop is in a domain, could access my own win laptop shares ok, I have permission problems with ubuntu on my own laptop when the company laptop tries to access the own laptop shares
[15:11] <geolr> maybe I would need to use a lower protocol-version? smbclient has a -m switch (maxprotocol) but nothing on it in the man page. Will search for it then?
[15:12] <|Dreams|> hello i have a problem, when i enable compiz when i view videos they flash when i disable compiz play movies they r fine? any help would be appreciated

[15:26] <danub_> nibbler: well im at work trying to get outside my work network, to my home network to map a drive on my system that is the dmz host... i would imagine it should work then correct?
[15:26] <jim_p> SeeWhy, rights on the folder maybe?

[15:26] <mgolisch> ukwiz: did you find it now?
[15:26] <mgolisch> :)
[15:27] <nibbler> danub_: depends on a lot of firewalling and nating. its generally possible
[15:27] <SeeWhy> how can I check which program using sudo ?
[15:27] <jim_p> SeeWhy, is some aptitude or apt running?
[15:27] <SeeWhy> closed all
[15:27] <SeeWhy> no
[15:27] <Shubbar> what is meant by a "zombie process"?

[15:27] <SeeWhy> I think I will try to restart
[15:27] <mole_> Hi, I have 3 crypted fs and want just 1 to be mounted at startup. That works with noauto in fstab, but it asks for the password at startup and not when I wanna mount it. How can I change that?
[15:27] <hypn0> nibbler: is there a gui :-)
[15:28] <nibbler> hypn0: rightclick on the connection item and then information
[15:28] <danub_> nibbler: so the command i would use would be the same as the one in my fstab essentially? mount -t smbfs //ip/share/ /mnt/point/?
[15:28] <Weez> every time i tryu to update my nvidia driver i get an error that says it appears you are running xserver, you must first close xserver
[15:29] <Weez> how do i close that?
[15:29] <ukwiz> mgolisch: that is not what shows on my screen
[15:29] <nibbler> danub_: yes.
[15:29] <Shubbar> is Sunday slow or what!
[15:29] <yahoo> anyone knows c++ programmers irc channel?
[15:29] <LinkOps> how do i get a partition to automount on startup so that i dont have to do it manually
[15:29] <mgolisch> ukwiz: then you do something wrong
[15:29] <C0p3rn1c> it's pretty dangeroes to upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 isnt it ?
[15:30] <nibbler> LinkOps: /etc/fstab
[15:30] <yahoo> yes
[15:30] <danub_> Weez: swap to f1 screen, /etc/init.d/gdm stop, update, /etc/init.d/gdm start
[15:30] <C0p3rn1c> I tried it once and it failed
[15:30] <crypted_> Heh I am in an apple store using their computer so ssh into my server and use irssi, while trying to crash it :P
[15:30] <C0p3rn1c> couldnt boot anymore
[15:30] <Weez> danub_,  thats woith ctrl-alt-f1?
[15:30] <ichsan> Is it safe to install ubuntu into my flashdisk which still contains files? I'm afraid to use usb-creator because I don't know if it will format the partition first
[15:30] <danub_> yes Weez
[15:30] <danub_> crash what crypt?
[15:30] <Weez> i try again, i think i tried that
[15:30] <ukwiz> mgolisch: is there anywhere to drop a png of what I see?
[15:30] <Weez> thanks dnaub
[15:31] <danub_> just do a fork bomb, that should crash it pretty quick
[15:31] <Weez> danub*
[15:31] <danub_> np Weez
[15:31] <danub_> what ssh server does the ubuntju gurus in here use?
[15:31] <mgolisch> ukwiz: http://imageshack.us/
[15:31] <danub_> openssh-server?
[15:31] <nibbler> danub_: openssh?
[15:31] <LinkOps> Nibbler: what needs to be put into there
[15:32] <danub_> ok thats what i thought, just wanted to see :)
[15:32] <nibbler> LinkOps: if the current configuration isnt enough of a hint, try man fstab
[15:32] <danub_> anyone know what the timeout period for a smbfs mount is? 300 seconds?

[15:32] <futeki> Bah, I found this awhile ago, but can't remember what it is I'm looking for... Basically, I'm trying to have a single domain and point to multiple servers based on the subdomain. I believe it was reverse dns look up that achieved, but can't remember. Anyone have any ideas?
[15:32] <Weez> danub_, ctrl-alt-f1 drops me to commandline but when i run the NVIDIAinstaller it gives me an error that your running x server
[15:33] <sancho21> Will usb-creator remove all files in the selected partition of my usb drive?

[15:33] <Saint1993> How can i find out what channle a connection is on?
[15:33] <diegorodriguezv> Hello.I have a weird problem. I installed a new hard drive. Connected it at IDE-0. The other drive at IDE-1 has 2 NTFS partitions for windows. When I boot 8.04 LiveCD I can see both /dev/sda and /dev/sdb with the partition editor. I Installed Ubuntu to the first hard drive but when I boot it doesn't seem to recognize /dev/sdb (I can't see it with partition editor). How can I diagnose this?
[15:33] <danub_> weez, you have to kill the x server
[15:34] <comradekingu> saint1993. "netstat -a" ?
[15:34] <Shubbar> when i try to remove nvidia-glx-  i get packages have unmet dependencies xserver-xorg-  ; and nvidia-glx- is not removed!
[15:34] <nibbler> diegorodriguezv: so dows your linux start then?
[15:34] <danub_> i think this can be done by doing the 'sudo /etc/init.dgdm stop' command
[15:34] <danub_> init.d/gdm stop
[15:35] <diegorodriguezv> yes, I can even boot windows and it recognizes both drives
[15:35] <nibbler> diegorodriguezv: start linux and run fdisk -l
[15:35] <Shubbar> when i try to install xserver-xorg-core, i get confligh with nvidia-glx-  . How can i fix this?
[15:36] <shaya> anyone have any idea why a box I just installed intrepid on locks up hard after some random period of time
[15:36] <Weez> gdm stop appears to work for about 10 seconds then it automatically retsarts the server and brings me to the gui login screen
[15:36] <shaya> there's nothing on console to indicate an oops or a panic
[15:36] <Weez> so weird
[15:36] <danub_> ahh
[15:36] <shaya> pondering how to debug it
[15:36] <diegorodriguezv> yep /dev/sda1 through /dev/sda4
[15:36] <danub_> ok, well kill it then with a kill -9
[15:36] <geolr> On my NAS-mount-issue (smb) I tried mount -t cifs. Then I get an error regarding a not found name. So I would like to configure the NAS-Ip to it's (WINS-?) name. I vaguely remember there to be something like route.conf? But I could not find it in /etc...
[15:36] <shaya> currently running memtest86+ to see if its a memory issue
[15:36] <Weez> ok thanks
[15:36] <danub_> 'ps -ef|grep X'
[15:37] <nibbler> diegorodriguezv: strange, could be an non-supported controller
[15:37] <danub_> kill the x server
[15:37] <danub_> and the gdm
[15:37] <danub_> if it comesback up before you can update, then just do a init 5. that will stop x from running
[15:37] <danub_> or is it init 3...
[15:37] <ukwiz> mgolisch: http://img45.imageshack.us/img45/7336/snapshot19wp1.png
[15:37] <danub_> which one only loads the shell?
[15:37] <erUSUL> !runlevels | danub_
[15:37] <danub_> yeah i think it is init 5
[15:38] <diegorodriguezv> yeah but, why does the livecd  recognizes it... (read/write)
[15:38] <danub_> ok, init 1 then
[15:38] <Shubbar> i m contemplating installing fresh 8.04, after the mess i made with upgrading to 8.10. Any advise?
[15:38] <danub_> that will load single user console mode if memory servers me correct. then you can update, and then do a init 6
[15:39] <mgolisch> ukwiz: maybe try another browser?
[15:39] <danub_> brb, gotta put on some tunes whilst i sit here at work with my thumb in my @**
[15:39] <Weez> where do i change the run levels? thats what i did last time but i forgot how to do it
[15:39] <MBrown009> Shubbar what are you looking to do with it
[15:39] <danub_> Weez: init 1
[15:39] <ikonia> Weez: its changed with upstart, ubuntu only uses 1 and 2 now
[15:39] <MBrown009> i know on our wireless network we have an open ticket bc 8.10 ill not work on our secure weirless
[15:39] <nibbler> Weez: or edit /etc/inittab for default settings
[15:39] <diegorodriguezv> how do I see messages of the hard drive recognition phase of the boot process?
[15:39] <danub_> ikonia: then why am i still doing init 6?
[15:39] <Weez> ok thanks guys
[15:39] <ukwiz> mgolisch: I was using konqueror. will try firefox instead...

I also cant now set my screen resolution even if I downgrade back to 8.04. What is going on ? Did upgrading fry some hardware somewhere ?
[15:41] <Shubbar> MBrown009, i lost 3d acceleration when i upgraded to 8.10, now i lost all gui and don't know how to fix it

[15:41] <lorrie> am trying to get imvu chat to work on ubuntu can you tell me how to get it to work
[15:42] <ukwiz> mgolisch: tried with firefox, same outcome. tried with firefox with scripting allowed - server appears. not such a well designed site!
[15:42] <nibbler> C0p3rn1c: aptitude -f install might help
[15:42] <my_haz> harvey: what error or output are you getting? Did shut down firefox and try?
[15:42] <erUSUL> C0p3rn1c: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:42] <|MUSE|> I can't get the window I am working on to move above the bar on the top of the screen. How do I get it too?

[15:44] <danub_> there used to be a music player called xmms... it was like winamp for linux... anyone know what happened to it? i see xmm2 as a package to download, but it doesn't seem to come with a gui
[15:44] <harvey> is there something I could be looking at?
[15:44] <ComradeHaz> [15:38:11] <MBrown009> how old of computer will run ubuntu 8.04 ? < which bits of it?
[15:44] <jrib> !xmms | danub_
[15:44] <donald> hey, i would like to make a partition on my hard drive, how do i do so, i've never done it before?
[15:44] <C0p3rn1c> MBrown009: xubuntu is the lite version of ubuntu
[15:44] <jim_p> can i ask a bit irrelevant? what is the cost of a simple web page to make. someone asked me to make one for his company and i dont know how much to ask. no flash, just plain html and css
[15:44] <MBrown009> okay
[15:44] <MBrown009> but i would wnat to run ubuntu server 8.04
[15:44] <C0p3rn1c> MBrown009:  check the requirement specs
[15:44] <MBrown009> on a computer
[15:44] <MBrown009> ok
[15:44] <|MUSE|> danub_: you have to get the gui that looks like winamp for xmms2
[15:44] <MBrown009> !ubuntu requirements
[15:45] <danub_> jrib: do they not have a winamp style player anymore? right now i just have amarok/rythombox, but they are too "bulky" for me

[15:45] <C0p3rn1c> MBrown009: google knows all ;-)
[15:45] <danub_> |MUSE|: where is that at?
[15:45] <danub_> you wouldn't happento know the package name would u>
[15:45] <danub_> ?
[15:45] <harvey> oh sorry my haz, yes totally
[15:45] <sudobash> I have a friend whose laptop I connected to remotely... I turned off his background in the Remote Desktop options to not show background to remote users... Now his background wont even show up... All he can change is the color
[15:45] <flo_> hello
[15:45] <donald> i've never made a partition, how do i do it?
[15:45] <sudobash> is there any way to manually set a background?
[15:45] <sudobash> in ssh maybe
[15:45] <jrib> danub_: yes, all of the options ubottu gave are similar to  winamp.  For xmms2, you probably want to install a graphical frontend.  Try 'apt-cache search xmms2'
[15:46] <my_haz> harvey: and can you play youtube movies?
[15:46] <harvey> if i also uninstalled and then reinstalled
[15:46] <danub_> ok, ill check for the frontends
[15:46] <harvey> yes i can on firefox
[15:46] <ComradeHaz> [15:39:52] <harvey> oh sorry my haz, yes totally <--- include the underscore would ya!
[15:46] <harvey> but i cant play flv if i download
[15:46] <|MUSE|> danub_: I used to, but I learnt to like rhythmbox. :) just look for the xmms2 webpage and they have a list of guis that you can try.
[15:46] <jrib> sudobash: it's a setting in gconf
[15:46] <sudobash> cool thanks
[15:46] <jrib> sudobash: not sure why ssh is relevant
[15:46] <donald> can somebody help me make a partition?
[15:46] <flo_> i have an atheros wifi card which need ath5k... I installed it, i see the card in iwlist but scanning for networks doesn't work. Help.
[15:47] <my_haz> harvey: can you play a normal .avi file in firefox (like with the plugin?)
[15:47] <sudobash> well I want to change his background via ssh
[15:47] <harvey> how do i do that?
[15:47] <sudobash> i turned the background off for Remote users but I changed it back to show it but it wont come back
[15:47] <ikonia> sudobash: thats tricky, you'd have to rename his default wallpaper file to the one you want
[15:47] <|MUSE|> donald: ya sure, what you need help with?
[15:48] <donald> i've never made a partition before and well i want to make one
[15:48] <babo> how come i can log on to any open wireless connection no problem with XP, but i can't even see the networks with ubuntu
[15:48] <babo> ?
[15:48] <my_haz> harvey: there is an mplayer plugin in apt-chach
[15:48] <|MUSE|> donald: you want to make a partition after you have already installed?
[15:48] <babo> this sucks. can someone help me with ubuntu wireless
[15:48] <babo> ?
[15:48] <flo_> babo what's your wireless card ?
[15:49] <donald> |MUSE|: yeah is it possible?
[15:49] <my_haz> babo: does iwconfig show your wireless card?
[15:49] <babo> flo_: I go to admin -> network and i can't find any networks with ubuntu
[15:49] <babo> xp logs on fine ( dual boot )
[15:49] <|MUSE|> well depends what kind of partition you already have?
[15:49] <harvey> what is apt-chach?
[15:49] <C0p3rn1c> sudobash:  google konsole customizing background
[15:49] <my_haz> babo: normally i click the little TV screen on the top right of the screen, next too the date
[15:50] <donald> |MUSE|: i have none
[15:50] <flo_> i have an atheros wifi card which need ath5k... I installed it, i see the card in iwlist but scanning for networks doesn't work. maybe our problems are related
[15:50] <babo> my_haz: i've had to boot xp in order to login to irc. i'm on an intel 3945 card (???). i can logon to my home connection, but i have to use a combination of dhclient, iwconfig
[15:50] <Dino_Debian> hi all
[15:50] <|MUSE|> donald: you have one partition that you have your os installed on, no? what format is it?
[15:50] <Evilrick> hey everyone, I am having very poor flash player performace in firefox on 8.04. I trie dthe flash 10 beta 2 hoping it would fix the problem but it doesnt. CPU sits at 100 percent on some sites making video stutter and the machine slow.
[15:50] <babo> my_haz: what if i don't have a little tv screen ?
[15:51] <idbita> Dino_Debian: The backend is the nodal point where all the goals are to provide their children a tool for easy configuration of the notion may lead to the fact that the main category however  it contains firmware and does not enable the root account should be enabled or disabled mintupload an ftp client that uploads files to a decision to follow ubuntus 6 month ubuntu release cycle.
[15:51] <MBrown009> i am goign to guess that i will not need to install drivers for ubuntu server lts 8.04?
[15:51] <donald> yeah it's a 60 GB MaXTOR, I don't know the rest
[15:51] <jim_p> flo_, and whoever asked for it. its network manager. remove it and install wicd         wicd.sourceforge.net for instructions
[15:51] <nothing12345> evilrick: I think its normally ;)
[15:51] <babo> my_haz: where do i go on my gnome menu ?
[15:51] <my_haz> babo: its on the top bar in ubuntu.  Are you sure your wireless card is supported?
[15:51] <babo> my_haz: yes
[15:52] <Dino_Debian> idbita: ok, thanks
[15:52] <babo> i can login to my home router
[15:52] <usser> babo, iwl3945 works just fine here. are you on hardy?
[15:52] <flo_> iwlist wlan0 scanning returns "no scan results" so i think it's not network manager
[15:52] <babo> i just can't login to any open wireless. ubuntu can't find any wireless network
[15:52] <idbita> usser: You just need one iso image builder its hardware detection and autoconfiguration its package autobuilder and debian software packages should be available free software here includes only software that may render the system is running easy transition and perfect backwards compatibility with sysvinit were explicit design goals.
[15:52] <usser> flo_, you have to use sudo
[15:52] <Dino_Debian> idbita:So,  Am I banned
[15:52] <babo> usser: yes. it's not a card issue methinks
[15:52] <Dino_Debian> ?
[15:52] <usser> babo, intel drivers in hardy are a bit immature
[15:52] <babo> how would i login to an open wireless network ?
[15:53] <usser> babo, did u install backports pacakager?
[15:53] <flo_> usser, i did
[15:53] <usser> babo, err package
[15:53] <usser> flo_, im sorry i've never dealt with atheros
[15:53] <Skry^> quick question.. which is better if i'm going for fast boots (and rebuilding kernel), to compile everything into kernel or to compile as modules?
[15:53] <flo_> thx anyway
[15:53] <babo> usser: why ? what would that do for me ?
[15:53] <usser> flo_, can u pastebin the output of lspci so that i know what card it is exactly
[15:54] <idbita> usser: Mintupdate assigns updates a safetylevel from 1 to 5 based on ubuntu but since version 20 it is exactly.
[15:54] <Evilrick> nothing12345: its not normal, if I boot into XP and use firefox to view the same site there is no problem
[15:54] <donald> |MUSE|: So what can i do?
[15:54] <babo> guys, generally - how do you login to an open wireless connection with ubuntu ?
[15:54] <usser> babo, backports contains packages from upstream. intel driver is there too, and it is substantially improved.
[15:54] <pluffsy> hi
[15:54] <flo_> AR242x : 168c:001c
[15:54] <babo> usser: it's not a card issue. repeat. not a card issue.
[15:54] <|MUSE|> donald: sorry, have you sent me the format of your partition yet?
[15:55] <comradekingu> dmesg | grep kill switch
[15:55] <usser> babo, is it intel 3945? are u on hardy? it is a driver issue.
[15:55] <donald> i don't know what it is ^^
[15:55] <donald> how do i find out?
[15:55] <babo> usser: not a card issue. not a driver issue. i can login to my home router wireless from the command line.
[15:55] <idbita> babo: A ubuntu distribution intended for home use and free.
[15:55] <babo> it could be a gnome issue
[15:56] <idbita> donald: Generally ubuntu users should try to bring these services with you on a live usb installer with persistence feature that allow anyone to make it an easier out of the same tasks and services during boot and install it to a file on their accounts which is composed mostly of freeopen source zope 3 bug tracking inkscape bug tracking inkscape bug tracking inkscape bug tracking inkscape bug tracking inkscape bug tracking bazaar gn
[15:56] <|MUSE|> well, do you have gparted installed?
[15:56] <babo> can anyone tell me how they login to a wireless network using gnome pls ?
[15:56] <idbita> babo: The network install cd installs ubuntu on a cd and to install.
[15:56] <krupa^> how do i rsync a folder and preserve the symbolic links structure?
[15:56] <donald> idbita: No idea what your talking about
[15:57] <yagga> network manager should see ssids?
[15:57] <babo> this isn't a difficult question. how do i login to a wireless network normally ?
[15:57] <roadfish> How can I get "wget" to impose timestamps on files that have already been downloaded. That is, I had used "wget" with timestamped turn off ... so the time is the time-of-download. But, now, I want to use the correct timestamps from the server. Are there any flags that do this? Hard to tell from the manpage.
[15:57] <Saint1993> How can i find out what channle a network is on?
[15:57] <babo> yagga: aye
[15:57] <babo> should see. but doesn't.
[15:57] <hlfshell> so my trash won't empty itself of these 3 files and only these three files when i right click and hit empty trash - i think its a permissions problem. where can i wipe the trash in sudo/command line?
[15:57] <sudobash> babo with terminal or what?
[15:57] <|MUSE|> donald: was that meant for me?

[15:57] <sudobash> you have to make sure your wifi is working correctly
[15:57] <usser> flo_, oh cool. the fix is easy then
[15:57] <Evilrick> flo_: can you scan from the command prompt
[15:58] <pluffsy> I have a smaller webserver. I've been thinking of running it virtualized with a minimal OS as host so I can just move the disk image to another computer easily to be able switch hardware in a fast and simple way. Is that just dumb and slow, or could that be a good idea?
[15:58] <nothing12345> evilrick, many ppl have problem with flashplayer and linux ... As far as I know isnt there a answer for this problem..
[15:58] <sudobash> in terminal do sudo iwlist scanning

[15:58] <|MUSE|> oh, sorry, do you have gparted installed? it should be in applications > accessories > gparted
[15:58] <nothing12345> I didn't talk to you :O

[15:58] <sudobash> first do sudo iwconfig
[15:59] <|MUSE|> or press alt+f2 and type in gpated
[15:59] <donald> |MUSE|: Was that to me ^^?
[15:59] <usser> flo_, and add ath_pci
[15:59] <|MUSE|> yip
[15:59] <n8tuser2> Saint1993--> do it the other way around, visit the #network and do a /list ofchannel
[15:59] <babo> this really sucks. i can't use ubuntu properly.
[15:59] <idbita> donald: By coincidence kubuntu also means friendly spirit in mizo and free as in speech system that would make them unsutible for ubuntus universe repository much free software because it was a commercial operating system to be released later in 2008 is the software does not install a graphical history bazaar supports files with names from the spanish tax regulations but most of the ubuntu packages and features.
[15:59] <idbita> n8tuser2: It can be ordered through the intranet network.
[15:59]  * babo is considering switching to xp

[16:02] <nibbler> Drift: is your card detected, do you see networks?
[16:02] <comradekingu> babo: "dmesg | grep kill switch"
[16:02] <babo> sudobash, what if i can see open networks in terminal but i can't see them in bash ?
[16:02] <sudobash> ubuntu is pretty easy if you have some help
[16:02] <babo> what then ?

[16:03] <usser> flo_, you saved the file after you added that right?
[16:03] <C0p3rn1c> fbc: does it work with flashgot ?
[16:03] <n8tuser2> tim167--> Remote desktop viewer if not for between ubuntu to ubuntu
[16:03] <flo_> yes i did to
[16:03] <nothing12345> babo whats ur problem?
[16:04] <sudobash> you might have to port forward ports if you have a router/firewall
[16:04] <idbita> babo: It is aimed at making the running software appear as if it is the gathering together of the default desktop environment is also based on ubuntu but is not considered to be tracked in multiple countries.
[16:04] <babo> anyway - iwconfig can see the networks but gnome network manager doesn't detect anything
[16:04] <donald> |USE|: i got it now
[16:04] <usser> flo_, ok on the terminal. type sudo rmmod ath_pci
[16:04] <|MUSE|> donald: ok, so can you tell me what format your partition is?
[16:04] <tim167> n8tuser2: i can connect to my own machine with remote desktop viewer
[16:04] <DeVnOrE> n8tuser2: not? it supports vnc so i will say it does
[16:04] <NotADJ> idbita was a bot.
[16:04] <usser> flo_, sudo modprobe ath9k
[16:04] <datta> can anyone tell me how to use vlc player to watch live video?

[16:05] <n8tuser2> tim167--> ubuntu to windows?
[16:05] <Drift> can i pm you?
[16:05] <tim167> sudobash: what's krdc ?
[16:05] <tim167> n8tuser2: no ubuntu to ubuntu
[16:05] <sudobash> krdc is a remote desktop client app
[16:05] <DeVnOrE> tim167: remote desktop viewer'
[16:05] <flo_> MEN
[16:05] <flo_> Wireless networks just came
[16:05] <sudobash> its quicker than xtightvncviewer of vino i think
[16:06] <donald> |MUSE|: i can't get it, i tried alt+F2 but it told me that it could be used as a WMD and could only be opened in root.... what does that mean?
[16:06] <nothing12345> does anybody use TWM ?
[16:06] <usser> flo_, so it did work?
[16:06] <babo> sudobash, not that i'm aware of
[16:06] <tim167> DeVnOrE: hi, been trying to get logmein.com working, no luck, no i try again with remote desktop viewer, i get 'connection closed' all the time, i enter the ip address of the remote computer...
[16:06] <|MUSE|> donald: don't you know the root password?
[16:06] <babo> just using the standard intel 3945 card. i don't think i'm using ndiswrapper
[16:07] <flo_> maybe... It's seem that it just "tombé en marche" as we say here
[16:07] <n8tuser2> tim167--> i misread you, i thought you meant rdp, the remoted desktop protocol
[16:07] <sudobash> ok well did you install your wifi drivers with Hardware Devices
[16:07] <sudobash> ?
[16:07] <JmCourir> is there any new features to have a nice and cool desktop like themes.. ?
[16:07] <egoflux> does banshee come with ipod support?
[16:07] <donald> |MUSE|: would that be my own password, sorry for ssounding so dumn, i'm new to linux so...
[16:07] <usser> sudobash, intel uses opensource drivers
[16:07] <Raylz> JmCourir: ibex?
[16:07] <sudobash> tim167 if you have a Remote Desktop Server on the PC you are trying to connect to then you are encountering a firewall issue most likely
[16:07] <DeVnOrE> tim167: sounds like a firewall is closing the connection for you.
[16:07] <|MUSE|> donald: did you install linux on your computer?
[16:08] <babo> sudobash, afaik they were detected automatically ?
[16:08] <|MUSE|> or someone else
[16:08] <babo> s/?//
[16:08] <donald> |MUSE|: yes
[16:08] <JmCourir> Raylz: I have Intrepid
[16:08] <|MUSE|> then is will be your password
[16:08] <DeVnOrE> tim167: can you ssh to the box?
[16:08] <tim167> sudobash: ok, how can i get the other person to allow the connection/disable the firewall... ?
[16:08] <|MUSE|> go to the terminal type 'sudo gparted' and put in your password
[16:08] <flo_> usser and Evilrick : THX a LOT for your help... I'll try to investigate on what i did for it to work. I don't beleive in magic
[16:08] <pgib>  I just upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10.  The install seemed to work fine (I used dist-upgrade) however, when it rebooted, the system took me to the CLI.  I realized that the path for kdm in default-display-manger was wrong, so I changed /etc/X11/default-display-manager.  Then it complained about the theme not being correct. So, I fixed the THEME key in /etc/default/kdm.d/20_kubuntu_default_settings
[16:09] <DeVnOrE> if so then you can try to use the -via option of vncviewer
[16:09] <pgib> However, now, when I try to start X, there is no mouse or keyboard activity, although the keyboard works in the CLI (and Ctrl-Alt-1 works)
[16:09] <sudobash> tim167 depends on if it is a router firewall or what... also what OS it is
[16:09] <tim167> DeVnOrE: sorry i dont know how to do that...can you show me ?
[16:09] <n8tuser2> tim167--> can you let me in to your computer?
[16:09] <pgib> I heard I need to install xserver-xorg-input-evdev and -input-synaptic, however when I do that I get the message "dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem."
[16:09] <usser> flo_, it was blacklist. I remember cause i was setting ath on someone's eeepc and thats all it takes to make it work on intrepid.
[16:09] <tim167> sudobash: the remote computer is ubuntu intrepid
[16:09] <pgib>  So... I run dpkg with those flags, and I get over 200 lines of "dpkg: dependency problems ..." where it complains about a BUNCH of packages being "not configured yet".  What could I possibly do to fix this?
[16:09] <n8tuser2> tim167--> can you let me in to your computer?
[16:09] <tim167> n8tuser2: yes sure why not
[16:10] <n8tuser2> tim167--> you may feel sorry later..go ahead establish me an account
[16:10] <pgib> when I try to reconfigure the dependencies that are not configed, It always comes down to dbus, which seems to be missing
[16:10] <MBrown009> do i need to install drivers for ubuntu if i put it on as a regular OS and not a VM?
[16:10] <DerUnbenannte> hi
[16:10] <tim167> n8tuser2:can i pm you?
[16:10] <sudobash> ok well it is probably a router firewall...
[16:10] <n8tuser2> tim167--> yes
[16:10] <donald> |MUSE|: the app is not in the applications area
[16:10] <cisne> are there a program to convert jpg,gif, etc to ascii ?

[16:13] <[eXception]> hi
[16:13] <jkoltner> I have a Grub question... does it use the concept of small mini-drivers to be able to access various oddball storage devices to boot from (e.g., SD card readers on the PCI bus)?  Or can it only boot devices where the BIOS provides "int 13" support?
