[11:31] <bullgard4> /etc/fstab includes a line "/dev/scd0  /media/cdrom0  udf,iso9660 user,noauto  0  0" After inserting a data CD another Disk mounter applet appears and its tooltip informs: "CD drive not mounted." How can I mount this CD now?
[11:34] <s-toned> Inserting text with middle mouse button or with Shift-Insert does sometimes the same and sometimes not. How do I configure this behaviour?
[11:35] <yeniklasorr> When compiling a source is it possible to look first its dependencies
[11:35] <alags> hi, i have the iso image (text-based)  in a  network. i have my shell in my box. how do i install ubuntu from that?
[11:36] <warbler> AnAnt: any other video card on the machine?
[11:38] <karud> I'm installing ubuntu on my intel mac -- boot camp is up, refit is up, liveCD is in, until when i press the install option, it goes into a shell?
[11:38] <karud> Any idea what's wrong?
[11:38] <AnAnt> warbler: no
[11:40] <karud> When I hit "Install ubuntu" from the LiveCD, i get a blank screen followed by a shell? Anyone?
[11:41] <shard> I'm having problems with a ubuntu server (7.04) install on an old machine. The install runs fine. When it boots up the machine brings up the login prompt but won't accept any input from the keyboard
[11:41] <jonathan_> there is an error
[11:41] <limpkin_> karud, do you have an error message coming from the xserver?
[11:41] <karud> nope.
[11:42] <jonathan_> ubuntu server indonesia, taiwan, asia
[11:42] <jonathan_> is that true?
[11:42] <karud> an open shell. seems to function... but, it's doing anything but installing
[11:42] <VoX> shard: what sort of keyboar? at/ps2/usb?
[11:42] <VoX> *keyboard
[11:42] <limpkin_> karud, enter startx
[11:42] <shard> VoX: ps2. it works perfectly through the whole install.
[11:42] <sith-lord> that's a secret
[11:42] <karud> I'll give it a try.
[11:42] <karud> Be back if that doesn't work I gues... thanks.
[11:42] <VoX> shard: if you press ctrl-alt-f1 does it dump you to a terminal?
[11:43] <Dimen> when trying to mount a drive, it's saying "mount: you must specify the filesystem type"  (i'm using mount /dev/hda1 /media/hda1)
[11:44] <shard> VoX: didn't try that. I thought since the login prompt came up it should accept the login
[11:44] <shard> VoX: am starting up machine to try it now
[11:44] <VoX> Dimen: does the directory /media/hda1 exist?
[11:44] <VoX> shard: righto
[11:44] <shard> VoX: no luck
[11:45] <Dimen> VoX: I used sudo mkdir /media/hda1 to create it..
[11:45] <VoX> shard: ok, does the numlock light turn on and off when you press it?
[11:45] <Dimen> or so i thought..
[11:45] <Dimen> yeah, it's in media
[11:45] <VoX> Dimen: type 'mount' on its own, and paste the results into a pastebin
[11:45] <jonathan_> ubuntu.indika.net.id error
[11:45] <stefg> Dimen: you only created a directory, not a filesystem
[11:45] <jonathan_> asia server error!
[11:45] <warbler> AnAnt: have typed in terminal - sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg - then chosen a video driver from the options
[11:45] <VoX> stefg: he's trying to mount the filesystem
[11:46] <jonathan_> what should i do?
[11:46] <shard> VoX: nope.
[11:46] <VoX> shard: hmm. what motherboard is it?
[11:46] <stefg> jonathan: sit back, relax and wait
[11:46] <jonathan_> already wait for 3 days!
[11:46] <jonathan_> omg
[11:46] <Dimen> VoX: not sure what you mean by paste the results into a pastebin..
[11:46] <stefg> !mirrors | jonathan_
[11:47] <ubotu> jonathan_: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[11:47] <VoX> Dimen: copy and paste the output from mount to: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[11:47] <VoX> and then put the url in here
[11:48] <shard> VoX: an old gigabyte one. takes a socket 370 processor
[11:48] <karud> Ah, loos like there is an error after all: After I choose install, it goes to a shell after displaying "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off."
[11:48] <stefg> Dimen: and while you are at it, paste the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' , too
[11:48] <VoX> shard: i'd suggest something doesnt like the ps2 controller or the keyboard. do you have a different keyboard to test?
[11:49] <shard> VoX: nope. it seems a bit strange though - the ubuntu installer didn't have any issues at all with the keyboard
[11:49] <Jonah> hey guys, here's a question for you if anyone can help me out... ok how do i get evolution to open web links in the right browser - but i don't use gnome so can't open gconf etc to make changes there??
[11:49] <VoX> shard: do you have a ps2->usb convertor?
[11:50] <Jordan_U> karud, Are you trying to install or is this an installed system?
[11:50] <karud> trying to install
[11:50] <Dimen> VoX: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35520/
[11:50] <Jordan_U> karud, Try the alternate install CD
[11:50] <shard> VoX: I'll go and have a rummage around. Will Ubuntu boot fine with a USB keyboard?
[11:50] <karud> after i choose intall ubuntu, i get a blank screen followed by that error and a shell.
[11:51] <karud> I'll try that
[11:51] <jonathan_> somebody help me to change the server address at software sources to [WWW]  ftp://kambing.ui.edu/ubuntu/
[11:51] <VoX> shard: yeah, tho you may have to tell your bios not to hault on no-keyboard-found-errors
[11:51] <stefg> Jonah: since evo is gnomes native email client you'll have to install gconf-editor to be able to configure it, iirc
[11:52] <stefg> Jonah: so evo stores its config in the gcnf database
[11:53] <EvaLuaTe> how could i get the current path ? i mean, if i'm for example in /home/myname/, is there a variable that contains this path ?
[11:53] <VoX> EvaLuaTe: 'pwd'
[11:53] <Jordan_U> EvaLuaTe, pwd
[11:53] <VoX> Dimen: what filesystem is the disc you're trying to mount?
[11:54] <EvaLuaTe> thanks VoX, Jordan_U :)
[11:54] <Dimen> it's FAT32
[11:54] <Jordan_U>  !terminal > EvaLuaTe
[11:54] <Jordan_U> EvaLuaTe, That is a good starter
[11:54] <Dimen> VoX: FAT32, hda1
[11:54] <EvaLuaTe> Jordan_U, you mean the website ?
[11:54] <shard> VoX: many thanks - now working
[11:54] <stefg> Dimen: so try 'sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt' and see if this gives an error
[11:55] <Jonah> stefg, ok i'll give it a shot
[11:55] <keito> what's the *best* torrent client for ubuntu -- I've been using Azureus and it has been erroring with large torrents (3GB) "Disc Allocation Error).
[11:56] <Jonah> keito, transmission
[11:56] <Jordan_U> EvaLuaTe, Yes
[11:56] <stefg> keito: Linux -azu needs preallocation on fat32 drives
[11:56] <Dimen> it says "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /devhda1, missing codepage or other error. In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so"
[11:56] <Jonah> keito, unless you don't have open ports, the best encryption torrent client is utorrent which is made to run under wine
[11:56] <Jordan_U> !best | keito
[11:56] <ubotu> keito: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[11:56] <stefg> Dimen: so i'll assume your partition is toast
[11:57] <avec> i used ubuntu 7.04 and i have linksys wmp54 v.4 wireless card but i cannot connect in my wireless network, i use wpa encryption
[11:57] <Jordan_U> keito, rtorrent is curses based and has been nothing but stable for me
[11:57] <Dimen> stefg, probably the case...  can i format to fat32 within ubuntu?
[11:57] <steinchen> hi
[11:57] <Jonah> stefg, where do i change the default browser in gconf-editor?
[11:57] <Jordan_U> Dimen, Yes, Gparted is the easiest way
[11:57] <stefg> Dimen: sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/hda1
[11:57] <avec> i have installed wpa-supplicant
[11:57] <Dimen> woah, ok :)
[11:58] <Jordan_U> Dimen, But be ABSOLUTELY sure that is the correct drive / partition
[11:59] <steinchen> im using deb since potatoe/woody - with etch i ran into many problems (gfx drivers ati mobility, runtime errors...) - so i tried ubuntu from live dvd.. nice work!! - what about changing completly, give me some hints
[11:59] <Jonah> keito, you can get transmission from synaptic but sometimes the one on www.getdeb.net is more upto date
[11:59] <wkbode> Is it possible to boot from the ubuntu cd and repair an installation on the harddrive to install a new graphics card?
[11:59] <stefg> Jonah: usually there's even a separate applet for that. If you want to avoid installing that too on top, i'd search for 'browser' in gconf's search. look up a sensible looking key and edit that  manually
[11:59] <keito> thanks guys i've spotted rtorrent, but i'll look at transmission
[11:59] <Dimen> Jorday_U: yeah, it's the only drive in the laptop...  i incorrectly applied a dd command using a zip file instead of an image..
[12:00] <ket-warrior> okay, am I being thick? how do I burn an iso with k3b?
[12:00] <rayne3rr0r> hello I have a quick question about dban can anyone help me out
[12:00] <keito> seen tribbler too but wanted to see if anyone's tried it
[12:00] <SlimeyPete> ket-warrior: there's a "burn image" option in the menus at the top
[12:00] <SlimeyPete> can't remember which menu
[12:00] <ket-warrior> SlimeyPete: :-)
[12:00] <steinchen> no hints?
[12:00] <ket-warrior> I was being thick
[12:02] <Jonah> stefg, i changed what seems to be the default to iceweasel, but it's still not working...
[12:02] <stefg> Jonah: ubuntu uses firefox still
[12:03] <Jonah> stefg, i know but i've got iceweasel! don't ask hehe
[12:03] <reenignEesreveR> are there any user login logs maintained on ubuntu?
[12:03] <wkbode> Can I alter a hard drive installation of ubuntu from booting from an ubuntu cd?
[12:03] <stefg> Jonah: so better ask in #debian :-)

[12:40] <King_InuYasha> ben__, the sound files determine between stereo, surround, and mono
[12:41] <stefg> medfly: you can't change .iso's. You can unpack it to a dir, make your changes to the files and the build a new iso from it with mkisofs (or a frontend to it). if it's a bootable image you have to know how to make it bootable again
[12:41] <medfly> stefg, yeah, i got that. i just thought people are more likely to answer a short question :-) thanks for the info
[12:42] <beavis> right click the iso icon and open with archive manager

[01:03] <triplc> ok, i've uninstalled sendmail, and installed postfix
[01:03] <stefg> Discerer-: you can d/l premade vm's with the default installs.
[01:03] <slapfaceware> now unisntall postfix, and install exim
[01:04] <Discerer-> oh cool stefg. will that include all programs I need to set the vm up or am I expected to have something before?
[01:05] <Geek_> Discerer-: what vm software?
[01:05] <Discerer-> Geek_?
[01:06] <stefg> Discerer-: basically there's the  free vmware-player/server. get it from vmware.com, and check for preinstalled ubuntu-vm's there, too. But if you need a localized install (other language than english) you might give google a try
[01:06] <Geek_> Discerer-: you need something to run the vm on ;) chosen one yet?
[01:06] <spheard> hey, how do I add mp3 support for feisty

[01:06] <Geek_> i very strongly recommend vmware server. You can download premade VMs off their site, or install a VM yourself
[01:07] <MinuteElectron> I am installing Ubuntu Server. Once finished can I install DNS server and LAMP server?
[01:07] <Discerer-> ok thanks
[01:07] <stefg> !lamp
[01:07] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[01:08] <MinuteElectron> yeah
[01:08] <MinuteElectron> your point?
[01:08] <SlimeyPete> MinuteElectron: yes. You just install the bind, apache, mysql and php/python/perl packages.
[01:08] <stefg> Read before you ask
[01:08] <MinuteElectron> ok
[01:09] <triplc> hi, after changing the content of /etc/aliases, what command I have to run? I am using postfix?
[01:10] <triplc> I used to run newaliase when I was using sendmail... but now I switch to postfix, and newaliases does not work
[01:10] <zepmantra> UBUNTU SUCKS !

[01:14] <noccy> good afternoon... thought i'd try one last time to see if anyone could help me with the problem i'm having
[01:14] <noccy> i have a flash card reader, "CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c476 II (rev ac)", which refuses to work properly
[01:15] <slapfaceware> noccy, that is knwon
[01:15] <noccy> is there a solution to that problem? because it seems to work fine besides nothing shows up in /dev that can be mounted?
[01:16] <Dumptruck> Hello everyone
[01:16] <Dumptruck> Is anyone familiar with networking with vmware server?
[01:16] <noccy> and i use that card reader to manage my mp3 player (which uses SD/MMC only)
[01:16] <Dumptruck> (not workstation)
[01:17] <Geek_> Dumptruck: moderately
[01:17] <Geek_> Dumptruck,  though someone in #vmware might know it better ;)
[01:17] <noccy> should i take that as a no, there are no workarounds? :P
[01:18] <Dumptruck> ah ha... thanks
[01:18] <Dumptruck> how do I open #vmware ?  new to mirc and xchat
[01:19] <stefg> noccy: that is a twofold problem. The reader knows that a card is inserted because a lightswitch is triggered. but there are no drivers for your reader, because Ricoh behaves very stupid in neither telling the specs, nor opensourcing the driver. this reader isn't linux comaptible
[01:19] <Geek_> Dumptruck: /join ##vmware
[01:19] <noccy> oh :/ okay
[01:19] <Geek_> typinging in /join nameofchannel will join any channel in most irc clients
[01:19] <Dumptruck> also: is there an easy graphical way to install tar files with ubuntu?
[01:19] <noccy> but some other ricoh readers are, right? so with some luck it might *eventually* be supported?
[01:20] <noccy> Dumptruck: is tar xvf not easy enough? :)
[01:21] <Dumptruck> still new to ubuntu
[01:21] <Dumptruck> not familiar with tar xvf
[01:21] <noccy> Dumptruck: just use tar xvf filename.tar in the folder where you'd like to extract it :)
[01:22] <firehawk> Dumptruck: x - extract, v-verbose output, f - filename you want to extract
[01:22] <Pici> Dumptruck: Its akin to installing from a zip file in windows. Its not an installation package.
[01:22] <noccy> :)
[01:22] <Xplicit> how do i connect a phone via bluetooth, it asks for a pin but i dont get a popup to enter it in
[01:22] <Dumptruck> I see
[01:23] <triplc> quit
[01:23] <Dumptruck> so I just extract the file to a location and it is installed?
[01:23] <Dumptruck> I don't need to sudo bash filename.pl?

[01:24] <firehawk> how to configure nvidia-glx
[01:25] <stefg> firehawk: which ubuntu-version?
[01:25] <Pici> !away > davefloyd
[01:25] <firehawk> 7.04
[01:25] <stefg> firehawk: there's the restricted drivers applet in the system menu
[01:26] <firehawk> yes and it says your hardware does not need restricted rivers
[01:27] <firehawk> i have downloaded nvidia-glx
[01:27] <Dumptruck> does vm-workstation even work with fiesty?
[01:27] <firehawk> but i want to understand is how to configure it ?
[01:27] <ziroday> firehawk: run gksudo nvidia-settings
[01:28] <beavis> workstation works perfectly with fiesty
[01:28] <firehawk> thanks will try :)
[01:28] <stefg> firehawk: nvidia-settings is a graphical frontend, from the cli it's sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:29] <firehawk> ok.. thanks stefg :-)
[01:29] <Dumptruck> beavis: was it you yesterday that mentioned I should use samba to share files between host and virtual machine?
[01:29] <beavis> yes
[01:29] <beavis> not necessary with workstation
[01:29] <akos> hello! I can't install firefox-dom because there is package confilct (firefox is 2.0.05, firefox-dom need < <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:29] <beavis> drag and drop works nicely
[01:30] <beavis> or cut paste, which ever takes your fancy really :-)
[01:32] <stefg> akos: you prabably do not have the security.ubuntu.com repos enabled or need a sudo apt-get update
[01:32] <Dumptruck> wait I can just cut and paste into the virtual machine???
[01:32] <stefg> !info firefox-dom-inspector
[01:32] <Dumptruck> that is brilliant
[01:32] <ubotu> firefox-dom-inspector: tool for inspecting the DOM of pages in Mozilla Firefox. In component universe, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>+1-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 237 kB, installed size 2644 kB
[01:32] <stefg> ^ akos ^
[01:32] <arun> If I burn a data DVD using the in-built DVD burner in Ubuntu, will the CD work in Windows as well? Do I need a special setting to ensure that it does?
[01:32] <Pici> akos: What version of Ubuntu are your running?
[01:32] <Pici> arun: It should work fine.
[01:33] <beavis> Dumptruck: only with workstation, doesn't seem to work with server
[01:33] <arun> Pici: alright, thanks
[01:34] <Dumptruck> uff - but vm server is not on synaptic or add remove programs
[01:34] <arun> Pici: I'm only asking because I used to use K3B, and in K3B, there's an option when you burn the CD (Linux only or Linux + Windows)
[01:34] <stefg> !vmware
[01:34] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[01:34] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[01:34] <Pici> arun: Thats odd.
[01:35] <Dumptruck> sorry I am such an idiot - still trying to figure things out - part of my fear is leaving the fisher-price graphicalness of windows
[01:35] <Dumptruck> right I have server installed
[01:36] <beavis> right, with server you'll have to install samba, it in the repo's
[01:36] <Dumptruck> however I am having trouble converting the vmx to a flat file
[01:36] <Dumptruck> repos?
[01:36] <Dumptruck> apt get?
[01:36] <beavis> repository
[01:36] <beavis> open synaptic and do a search for samba
[01:36] <Dumptruck> so I figured workstation might be a better all around bet
[01:37] <Pici> !samba
[01:37] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[01:37] <Dumptruck> samba is already installed
[01:38] <arun> Dumptruck: Get Virtualbox, it's much better than VMWare, and it's really easy to share folders using Virtualbox
[01:38] <beavis> never used virtualbox, so i can't comment on that one, but vmware has allways serve3d me well
[01:38] <akos> stefg, i have them enabled, running fiesty
[01:39] <arun> vmware has served me well too, i didnt think anything could be better. i just installed virtualbox 3 days ago, and i was amazed at how good it was
[01:39] <cr1ss> hello, I 'm trying to burn some .avi files with k3b, but it pops this error message " :-( media is not formatted or unsupported , media error " . what do I need to install ?
[01:40] <Dumptruck> and is virtualbox in synaptic?
[01:40] <stefg> akos: so if you don't have update-manager running you should be fine after sudo apt-get update. as i've shown you above firefox-dom-inspector is in version 2.0.6 in feisty
[01:41] <akos> stefg, something is not right... i ran update, and it's @ version <IP_ADDRESS>... And I have not been getting security updates for a week or two either
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Dumptruck, No, but they provide a .deb for the Proprietary version
[01:42] <stefg> akos: check your /etc/apt/sources.list ... or see !easysource to generate a fresh one
[01:42] <arun> Dumptruck: here's a good guide to set up virtualbox: http://www.blog.arun-prabha.com/2007/05/07/installing-virtualbox-and-windows-using-virtualbox-in-ubuntu/
[01:42] <arun> that's not my blog, btw
[01:42] <arun> there's screenshots as well
[01:42] <Dumptruck> thanks that is very nice of you
[01:42] <arun> Dumptruck: here's another one (a continuation) to configure sharing and other things: http://www.blog.arun-prabha.com/2007/05/21/configuring-virtualbox-for-sharing-and-mouse-control/
[01:43] <Jordan_U> Dumptruck, Also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[01:43] <maynards-girl> what command can I type to find out how much ram I have in my computer?
[01:43] <thinkmonkeys> I have a keyboard with both Thai and English alphabet.  How can I switch temporarily to inputting in thai (ideally in vim)
[01:43] <Jordan_U> maynards-girl, free -m
[01:43] <arun> well, well, we have a tool fan here
[01:43] <cr1ss> not only one
[01:43] <maynards-girl> jordan_um thank u!
[01:44] <Jordan_U> maynards-girl, np
[01:44] <Dumptruck> so there seems to be a strong push for virtual box on ubuntu?  But is it going to be the industry standard - ie if used in business will it be around for a while and have support
[01:44] <maynards-girl> ...and yes I'm a tool fan
[01:44] <straw_ice> straw_ice
[01:46] <cr1ss> so, any idea why I can't burn avi files with k3b ?
[01:46] <Discerer-> hmm vmware seems very straightforward so far, thanks for the tip
[01:46] <reya276> What is the terminal command for Wine Configuration?
[01:47] <arun> Dumptruck: check out http://www.virtualbox.org/
[01:47] <arun> to learn more about the company
[01:47] <daedra> reya276: try man wine
[01:47] <Pici> reya276: winecfg
[01:48] <reya276> yeap tried that aswell and nothing I actually got an error
[01:48] <reya276>  winecfg
[01:48] <reya276> X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
[01:49] <emeriste> What is the Linux/Ubuntu equivalent of Dreamweaver (In case I'm not asking for the right thing, what I'm interested in finding is a Wysiwyg wep page making application).
[01:49] <arun> emeriste: NVU

[01:52] <arun> how do i minimise rhythmbox to the system tray?
[01:53] <beavis> arun: if an app doesn't minimise to the tray try alltray
[01:53] <beavis> sudo apt-get install alltray
[01:53] <beavis> alltray rythmbox
[01:53] <hellboy195> welcome the hardy heron :D
[01:55] <erUSUL> arun: click on the try icon
[01:55] <arun> thanks erUSUL
[01:56] <arun> i have to say, i absolutely love rhythmbox. the audio quality is quite superb, music has never sounded so good with either itunes or amarok
[01:56] <levi_> can som1 help me with uninstall ubuntu
[01:57] <levi_> need help to uninstall plz.
[01:58] <Jordan_U> levi_, Do you have a windows install CD?
[01:58] <levi_> recover cd
[01:59] <stefg> levi_: but you can boot to windows, can't you?
[01:59] <Discerer-> put it in, boot on it, format the hdd and install/recover
[01:59] <levi_> yea dual boot vista
[01:59] <Jordan_U> levi_, Be sure that it is one that won't just start re-installing when you boot it ( my friend had one once, killed his install, don't know how often OEM's are stupid enough to do that )
[01:59] <bombshelter13> Hey, could someone quickly tell me where the setting for a Mac OS style menu bar is in KDE 3.5.6 (the version in current Kubuntu)
[02:00] <Jordan_U> bombshelter13, Try #kubuntu for KDE
[02:00] <bombshelter13> Cool, i'll ask there
[02:00] <levi_>  i dont want to reistall windows tho
[02:01] <stefg> levi_: all it takes is removing ubuntus boot loader from the mbr of the harddisk. This is done by running the command 'fixmbr' in windows command terminal. after that you can just nuke the ubuntu-partitions
[02:01] <levi_> ok can i do from windows or recovery disk
[02:01] <stefg> levi_: you can do that from the installed windows system
[02:02] <levi_> kk thanx alot
[02:02] <darkstar> hi all
[02:03] <darkstar> anyone know what program would have this library libirc.so .. thanks
[02:03] <Pici> !find libirc.so | darkstar
[02:03] <ubotu> darkstar: File libirc.so found in gaim, gaim-dbg
[02:04] <darkstar> Pici : find: libirc.so: No such file or directory
[02:04] <Pici> darkstar: look above ^^
[02:05] <darkstar> ubotu : ive installed gaim .. but the program im trying to run cant find the .so file
[02:06] <Pici> darkstar: In feisty?
[02:07] <firehawk> quit
[02:07] <mojojojo_> !ramdisk
[02:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ramdisk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:07] <darkstar> pici : yes ... ive converted the program installers via alien
[02:07] <Pici> darkstar: Thats probably your problem.
[02:08] <Pici> darkstar: What program are you trying to install?
[02:08] <amerinese> is there a way to automatically pick a fast apt repository from the command line?
[02:08] <stefg> mojojojo_: http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-fs3.html
[02:09] <jonathan_> well than... it seems ubuntu server at indonesia still crash
[02:09] <darkstar> Pici : Maya ... :-( .. program not available natively for deb
[02:09] <jonathan_> it seems nobody can repair that...
[02:09] <Jordan_U> darkstar, alien does not always work and can screw up dpkg, are you sure there is no other way to install what you need?
[02:10] <darkstar> Jordan : no the only two distros supported are RHEL and SUSE
[02:10] <darkstar> so basically the installers come as RPMs
[02:10] <Jordan_U> darkstar, What are you trying to install?
[02:11] <darkstar> Jordan .. Maya
[02:11] <stefg> darkstar: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66859
[02:11] <Pici> darkstar: I think you're trying to fit a square peg in a round hole here.
[02:11] <darkstar> Pici : ... lol
[02:12] <darkstar> anyways .. thanks everyone ... im at work .. be back later
[02:12] <Slart> amerinese: I think there's a utility called apt-spy that does that
[02:12] <Jordan_U> darkstar, sudo apt-get install blender ;)
[02:12] <avec> i have installed nvidia glx and when i try to enable after restar i get this message failed to start x server your graphical interface it is not set up correctly
[02:14] <avec> how i can to restore the configuration i have a backup in var/backup/xorg.conf...?
[02:15] <l1f3burn> cp /var/backup/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:15] <stefg> avec: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, select 'nvidia' as driver
[02:16] <Jordan_U> avec, If you want fewer questions do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh"
[02:16] <avec> try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, select 'nvidia' as driver   but when i try to log in as root say authetication failed my password is correct
[02:17] <stefg> avec: there is no root in ubuntu... use your noraml account and get a root shell with sudo -s
[02:17] <stefg> !root
[02:17] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[02:17] <avec> ok thnx i will try
[02:17] <niklas^> how will i do to change window manager ?
[02:17] <amerinese> Slart: as far as i can tell, that's a two year old bug that hasn't been fixed and is apparently dangerous to use
[02:17] <amerinese> Slart: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-spy/+bug/1780
[02:18] <Jordan_U> avec, But the point of using sudo before dpkg-reconfigure is that you don't need to be at a root shell to run it ( it will ask your password and run just that command as root )
[02:18] <Slart> amerinese: oh.. didn't know that.. haven't used it in a year or two.. luckily for me
[02:18] <Slart> amerinese: thanks for pointing that out
[02:19] <MortarMan> hi i have problem with microphone - when i say i hear myself in speaker but not in system (skype says no mic detected)
[02:19] <Slart> amerinese: come to think of it, I haven't used it on ubuntu, only on debian.. thought they were similar enough for it to work.. well well
[02:20] <amerinese> Slart: yeah, which i guess why it's dangerous... wonder how synaptic does it
[02:20] <hipitihop> I have a small home network of 6 machines some wireless and some wired. Is there any tool I can install to monitor and preferably assign quotas per machine for internet usage ?
[02:20] <Yodude> hey can somebody please tell me if there is a internet monitor that i can use to monitor my bandwidth and control it ? I would prefer if it had a GUI
[02:21] <Yodude> hipitihop: lol we're looking for the same program
[02:21] <Slart> hipitihop: you can use iptables for almost anything... it just takes some work
[02:21] <hipitihop> Yodude, rofl
[02:21] <Yodude> slart: hey is there any monitor that has a GUI ?
[02:22] <Slart> Yodude: have you tried firestarter or shorewall? I don't know if they can do this using some kind of gui
[02:22] <Xplicit> how do i pair a device to my pc, it doesnt ask me for a pin and the default 1 doesnt work
[02:22] <hipitihop> Yodude, I've gone through this list, there are some with UI but not sure if any allow quotas or if it is possible to see my wireless machines... http://ubuntugeek.com/bandwidth-monitoring-tools-for-linux.html
[02:23] <hipitihop> Slart, isn't firtestarter just a firewall ?
[02:23] <Yodude> hipitihop: i found one called moodss, it has a gui. i installed it ( from the repos ) but it didn't start !
[02:24] <Yodude> hipitihop: and i checked out Bandwidthd but i can't seem to get the nhang of it, it's hard to use
[02:24] <Slart> hipitihop: firewall, router, gateway, coffee-machine.. iptables can do almost anything as I said =)

[02:33] <Bo1> i would think that something like ubuntu would support all graphic cards.
[02:33] <hipitihop> Slart, I wasn't sure as obviously the wireless puters are connected directly to wireless router which is also doing the cable internet sharing
[02:33] <Dumptruck> is Arun still here?

[02:39] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: Skype on wine won't do any good because it has some fleaky audio support, even for Alsa...
[02:39] <W9ZEB> whatspy: you could replace bash with ksh, or tcsh
[02:40] <Eviltronic> How do i get nickname list to the right of the screen? I'm on Feisty - Xchat
[02:40] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: My advice would be to go to the website of Skype and try out the latest beta for linux in ubuntu
[02:40] <W9ZEB> whatspy: I KNOW ksh can use vi style command structure.  tcsh I suspect can but I'm not 100% certain
[02:40] <Daverocks> Bo1: try "glxgears" and see what the framerate is, desktop effects doesn't necessarily work even if 3D is working
[02:40] <hipitihop> Yodude, I'm looking through the site but it seems to concentrate on lots of graphs and stuff which is nice, but my main objective is to also to be able to set quotas per machine and then traffic shape or something so that that machine's internet connection is brought to a crawl after they pass a quota

[02:40] <MortarMan> Carroarmato0: i have latest for debian but  its problem in sound configurations
[02:40] <whatspy> W9ZEE: thx for the tip
[02:40] <W9ZEB> whatspy: no problem
[02:41] <W9ZEB> can anyone point me to the official how-to for the following WiFi card:  iwconfig=[Nickname:"Broadcom 4311"]  lspci=[Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI]
[02:41] <hipitihop> Yodude, does Cacti do that too ?
[02:41] <erUSUL> whatspy: set +o vi
[02:41] <evan__> laucky Running x800 and cant get beryl/compiz to run, followed this guide tho http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide
[02:42] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: You should download the specialy made Feisty package...
[02:42] <Daverocks> W9ZEB: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM4311_rev_01_%28ndiswrapper%29
[02:42] <whatspy> erUSUL: what's that ?
[02:42] <W9ZEB> Daverocks: many thanks.
[02:42] <warbler> hipitihop: you need apache to run cacti
[02:42] <Bo1> daverocks:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35538/plain/
[02:42] <Daverocks> W9ZEB: also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs will help
[02:42] <W9ZEB> Daverocks: I've gotten it working before, but I've used like 5 different guides, and only 1 of them works.
[02:42] <derenrich> Anyone have experience with sshfs?
[02:42] <Daverocks> W9ZEB: heh, broadcom on linux is a pain
[02:43] <laucky> evan__ My ATI driver works fine. But Compiz has to be disabled ... :-/ any way to circumvent compiz
[02:43] <workstohard> can anyone help me. I have apache running but i can only hit it from the lan not from outside
[02:43] <workstohard> someone help
[02:43] <workstohard> heh
[02:43] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: I have no knowledge about the different handeling between Debian and Ubuntu... but you should stick to specialy made packages for your distro
[02:43] <workstohard> :))
[02:43] <laucky> sorry: s/compiz/Composite
[02:43] <hipitihop> warbler, I see, looking at the docs now
[02:43] <W9ZEB> Daverocks: I should just order an atheros based mini-pci and pull this one out....
[02:43] <derenrich> workstohard: do you have port forwarding up?
[02:43] <erUSUL> whatspy: intructs bash to use vi like commands when editting instead the default emacs-like ones
[02:43] <digitalspaghetti> Can anyone suggest an app that will let me convert WAV to AIFF?
[02:43] <tallman> hello everyone
[02:43] <beavis> workstohard: make sure you have port 80 forwarded to your internal ip
[02:43] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-ubuntu
[02:43] <sipior> digitalspaghetti: sox does that, iirc
[02:43] <MortarMan> Carroarmato0: ubuntu is based on debian... and thanks for help trying , it works now , i dont know why o.O
[02:43] <tallman> how do I playback .ape format ?
[02:43] <beavis> workstohard: or wotever port you use
[02:43] <workstohard> I have that on my router. But where do i check it in linux
[02:44] <warbler> !ffmpeg
[02:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ffmpeg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:44] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: Miracles happen ^^
[02:44] <workstohard> and i have seliunux enabled
[02:44] <Daverocks> digitalspaghetti: ffmpeg?
[02:44] <erUSUL> whatspy: personally i do not know why someone in their right mind will do so but you asked for it (emacs rulez!)
[02:44] <MortarMan> Carroarmato0: thats not miracle thats some ugly thing
[02:44] <digitalspaghetti> Daverocks, i thought that but I couldn;t find the command line to do it
[02:44] <warbler> #ffmpeg
[02:44] <derenrich> workstohard: you shouldn't have to. If the packets are being forwarded everything should be fine (assuming it is accesable on your LAN)
[02:44] <Daverocks> Bo1: i assume you saw the gears running smoothly
[02:44] <evan__> laucky check your xorg.conf file
[02:44] <Bo1> daverocks:yeah
[02:45] <beavis> iptables should just let it through, never setup iptables so thats a bit out of my depth
[02:45] <derenrich> workstohard: oh, I don't know about selinux
[02:45] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: ow well... My usb phone workes in Skype.. but I can't get it to capture audio through the recording app in ubuntu..
[02:45] <whatspy> erUSUL: thx
[02:45] <workstohard> yea. I t is i know it working on the lan but .. I think its on the box somewhere. , reason is i got hacked. Installed deny.hosts
[02:45] <Daverocks> digitalspaghetti: ffmpeg -i blah.wav blah.aiff
[02:45] <workstohard> and.... selinux
[02:45] <erUSUL> whatspy: no problem
[02:45] <laucky> evan__ what should be in / out of there? Composite has to be disabled, some websites and some errors on my laptop say.
[02:45] <tallman> how do I playback .ape format ?
[02:46] <workstohard> cat /var/log/secure iit scared me
[02:46] <evan__> yes, make sure composite is disabled
[02:46] <derenrich> workstohard: Sounds like its deny hosts that's doing it (not selinux), but I am ignorant on this subject
[02:46] <evan__> Section "Extensions"
[02:46] <evan__>         Option  "Composite" "Disable"
[02:46] <evan__> EndSection
[02:46] <Dumptruck> so far so good - the virtual box seems pretty sweet
[02:46] <laucky> evan_ well, it is.
[02:46] <Slart> here's one article that discusses traffic shaping in general http://www.knowplace.org/pages/howtos/traffic_shaping_with_linux.php
[02:46] <evan__> well then im not sure what to tell ya cuz i aint got it working myself ;p
[02:46] <genii> tallman: Look into jmac, it's on Sourceforge. Ape playback codec in java
[02:47] <tallman> genii: thanks
[02:48] <MortarMan> Carroarmato0: me too ! i dont know why... try to capture with different application , it worked for me at other app... i think it was audacity
[02:48] <laucky> evann__ thank you for advice until now. I hope you, like me, managed to get the driver to work. That always seems 2 be a miracle :)
[02:49] <laucky> evan__ well, I yould start compiz a while ago with dapper or edgy in combination w/ XGL, perhaps you could try that - but it doesn't work here in feisty :/
[02:49] <raman> any body knows about mobile linux OS????
[02:49] <lucky_lucas> Hi, is it too late too add some packages in gutsy
[02:49] <laucky> ATI - a never ending story
[02:49] <warbler> !gutsy
[02:49] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[02:49] <turtle5001_> j   #dot
[02:50] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: Me too... I'm trying different settings as we speak... the thing that it usually does is to jump back to the capture setting which captures nothing.
[02:51] <Slart> hipitihop: shorewall does traffic shaping according to it's homepage www.shorewall.net
[02:51] <hipitihop> Slart looking...
[02:51] <MortarMan> Carroarmato0:ehm uhm.. i dont know .. sorry
[02:52] <hipitihop> Slart while installing Cacti via synaptic I got "libphp-adodb is no longer installed in /usr/share/adodb. New installation path is now /usr/share/php/adodb.
[02:52] <hipitihop> Please update your php.ini file. Maybe you must also change your web-server configuraton."
[02:52] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: Hmm... hang on, I think I'm making progress....
[02:52] <qazibasit> hey tell me what is a brute force
[02:52] <qazibasit> ?
[02:52] <qazibasit> and how can i detect if the someone is using it on my system
[02:53] <Slart> hipitihop: eh.. ok.. take a look in php.ini and see if you can find anything related to libphp-adodb.. perhaps there is a path somewhere that needs to be fixed
[02:53] <mheath> qazibasit, It is a break in / hacking attempt by someone who uses a large amount of time / attempts / tries, etc. to break inyour your computer system
[02:53] <Adian> qazibasit: brute force can mean a few different things.  Usually it means to guess a password over and over again until they get it right
[02:53] <Slart> qazibasit: brute force is guessing usernames/passwords
[02:53] <genii> qazibasit: If you see a bunch of names with failed logins in the file /var/log/auth.log you may be the victim of a bruteforce password guesing attempt
[02:53] <mheath> qazibasit, For example, someone who just tries to outright guess your password would be trying to 'brute force'
[02:53] <raman> any body have information about debian bsased mobile OS
[02:53] <Adian> qazibasit: in an online attack they just try to login to your system ove rand over, which would be in your logs
[02:54] <bullgard4> The directory /media includes the directory entries cdrom  cdrom0  sda1  sda10  sda5 sda6 backup (and symlinks and hidden files). After a "sudo mount /dev/scd0 /media" command a ls  command does not show them any longer. How is this effect being called? to overmount?
[02:54] <qazibasit> hmmm
[02:54] <Adian> qazibasit: in an offline attack, they steal a hash or some other encrypted token and break it on their own time, which wouldn't be logged of course
[02:54] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: I have succeeded in making my mic react to the capturing :-)
[02:54] <qazibasit> so is it hard to do you so, i mean if i feel like someone is doing this and i disconnect my computer will it end
[02:55] <Slart> hipitihop: It seems that even shorewall requires some knowledge of iptables and shaping.. it's not a turn-key solution
[02:55] <MortarMan> Carroarmato0: good job
[02:55] <qazibasit> or they will be finished by then
[02:55] <ben_underscore> howdy. does anyone have any advice on the use of nvidia-settings? i have used it to adjust my screen resolution and it is not saving the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[02:55] <Adian> well, if you think they're doing an online attack, yeah, that'll probably stop the attack by taking it offline
[02:55] <qazibasit> ok
[02:55] <Adian> if they already stole a password hash or something, then you just need to change your password or ensure you have strong passwords
[02:55] <ben_underscore> qazibasit: install a firewall like firestarter too
[02:55] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: The mic is activated upon capturing audio... but it hears nothing....?
[02:55] <qazibasit> ok
[02:55] <akos> Is there a way to ommit the Config:: part of the variables declared in the Config module?
[02:55] <Adian> bah
[02:56] <hipitihop> Slart, I see, still looking for php.ini
[02:56] <Daverocks> qazibasit: if you have a password of reasonable char length and made up of a variety of characters, simple ssh brute force attacks are implauisble
[02:56] <qazibasit> but i have heard that these firewalls have their own disadvantages
[02:56] <Adian> just use good passwords, good hashes, and if online attacks are anoying you, use port knocking or soemthing
[02:56] <akos> sry, wrong channel
[02:56] <Slart> hipitihop: check in /etc or do a "find / | grep -i php.ini"
[02:56] <qazibasit> ok well my id and root has the same password i think i should change that
[02:56] <Daverocks> qazibasit: firestarter won't help you any more than just disabling ssh yourself
[02:56] <Adian> for something as basic as that, installing some spiffy application layer firewall is overkill
[02:56] <MortarMan> Carroarmato0: same thing happens to me :S you should go to forums with this problem
[02:57] <Adian> yes, your root password should be very complex and never the same as another password
[02:57] <genii> qazibasit: Yes, not a good idea to duplicate passwords
[02:57] <Adian> just pick a random 8-10 digit password with upper, lower, numbers and special characters
[02:57] <qazibasit> ok
[02:57] <Adian> I suggest never using your root password except for system maintenence.  use sudo to gain root for day-to-day stuff
[02:58] <qazibasit> ok
[02:58] <laucky> ben_underscore what is a firewall good for in a ubuntu desktop system? Only those ports are open I'd like to have open. And if I start e.g. openssh-server and it is bruteforced, no firewall prevents me from this, does it?
[02:58] <Adian> of course, if you have sudo access, your own account password needs to be just as strong as your root password
[02:58] <qazibasit> ok if a person get access to any computer but dont have the root access can he do malicious things
[02:58] <sahil> anyone know why pressing Fn=F4 on my laptop while the projector is connected doesnt seem to work?
[02:58] <Adian> yes
[02:58] <Slart> laucky: firewalls can be used for lots of things.. perhaps I want to restrict people not from sweden from connecting to my teamspeak server.. it can do that
[02:58] <laucky> I'd rather prefer one-time-passwords, so a brute-force attack has less chances after thrown out
[02:58] <Daverocks> qazibasit: also, if you have a ssh server open to the entire internet, it's very normal to see frequent failed login attempts, no need to worry usually
[02:58] <Adian> it is much easier to take root locally than remotely
[02:59] <Adian> gaining low-level account access to a system is a very convenient stepping stone to root
[02:59] <Adian> and even without that, they can use your system resources, store illegal files, conduct DoS attacks, etc
[02:59] <qazibasit> hmm
[02:59] <Adian> just bad in generally
[02:59] <ben_underscore> laucky: yah yah
[02:59] <qazibasit> but i heard that getting a root access in unix is almost impossible
[02:59] <Adian> you don't want them storing kiddie porn on your box
[02:59] <qazibasit> even if a person is using exploits or other tools
[02:59] <ben_underscore> qazibasit: don't believe it
[03:00] <Slart> qazibasit: hard.. not impossible
[03:00] <laucky> Slart okay, good point. But is there a way to prevent my computer from attacks without using DROP+whitelists
[03:00] <Adian> it isn't easy, but it isn't impossible
[03:00] <Adian> but it's a lot easier if the sysadmin is a noob
[03:00] <Adian> ;-)
[03:00] <qazibasit> ok
[03:00] <Slart> laucky: I'm not a security expert.. I think you'll be better off asking someone with a bit more knowledge of these things
[03:00] <alexio> hey all
[03:00] <Adian> the core Unix stuff is pretty solid, but there's a ton of really badly implemented open source software out there
[03:00] <qazibasit> i gave access to my friends to upload their files on my HD
[03:00] <qazibasit> so i am a bit worried
[03:00] <Daverocks> qazibasit: how? ftp? ssh?
[03:00] <Carroarmato0> MortarMan: Hmm, nope, still doesn't want to record anything...
[03:01] <qazibasit> ssh
[03:01] <jonathan_> somebody help me with instalation tarballs
[03:01] <jonathan_> http://pastebin.ca/674644
[03:01] <genii> qazibasit: they better be friends you trust :)
[03:01] <laucky> Slart thank you :-*
[03:01] <Adian> exactly
[03:01] <qazibasit> ya
[03:01] <alexio> anybody any ideas why changing my NIC has busted mysql on my box? :(
[03:01] <Adian> and do you trust them to pick good passwords?
[03:01] <qazibasit> but someone is using a brute force i saw the file u ppl told me
[03:01] <qazibasit> there are 112 such logins
[03:01] <Pici> jonathan_: Install the build-essential package.
[03:01] <qazibasit> failed logins
[03:01] <Adian> yeah, that's pretty common nowadays
[03:01] <qazibasit> mostly medical terminologies
[03:02] <Adian> I'd suggest you require your users to use ssh keys
[03:02] <jonathan_> build-essential package?
[03:02] <qazibasit> coz we are medical students
[03:02] <jonathan_> what is that for?
[03:02] <Pici> !b-e | jonathan_
[03:02] <ubotu> jonathan_: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:02] <Daverocks> qazibasit: that is normal, automatic ssh scanning background noise on the internet
[03:02] <genii> jonathan_: It's for compiling source code from things like tarballs
[03:02] <Slart> jonathan_: it installs the stuff needed for compiling other stuff. =) sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:03] <warbler> jonathon: the config.log - what's it say?
[03:03] <jonathan_> ok
[03:03] <alexio> anybody any ideas why changing my NIC has busted mysql on my box? :(
[03:03] <jonathan_> I'm installing build-essential now
[03:03] <jonathan_> there is nothing at config.log, access denied
[03:03] <Slart> alexio: changing nic was the only thing you changed?
[03:03] <genii> alexio: Likely it's now eth1 and mysql attached originally to eth0
[03:03] <alexio> yep
[03:04] <alexio> change that in interfaces then?
[03:04] <genii> alexio: Do you only now have 1 adapter but it gets seen as eth1?
[03:04] <alexio> I only have one now yep
[03:04] <jonathan_> and now it said: The msgfmt command is required to build libpurple.  If it is installed
[03:04] <jonathan_> on your system, ensure that it is in your path.  If it is not, install
[03:04] <jonathan_> GNU gettext to continue.
[03:05] <Bo1> is there a way to force download all package?
[03:05] <genii> alexio: And when you do: ifconfig   it shows eth1 or eth0 ?
[03:05] <pibe86> hello, i am sending bits to the parallel port, how can i know from the pc if they have been sent =
[03:05] <pibe86> =
[03:05] <pibe86> ?
[03:05] <Pici> Bo1: What do you mean?
[03:05] <Actionman> how stable is 7.10 alpha 5?
[03:05] <alexio> eth1
[03:05] <Carroarmato0> Actionman: It's pretty stable
[03:05] <Bo1> pici:synaptic package
[03:05] <alexio> looks like thats it then
[03:06] <Pici> Bo1: You want to install every package available in the repositories?!
[03:06] <alexio> just need to adjust the configuration in network > interfaces
[03:06] <Bo1> pici:yeah
[03:06] <Pici> Bo1: Why?
[03:06] <genii> alexio: OK, i know then what happened. In the file /etc/iftab there is recorded the old mac address of the previous nic. replace that with the new mac address
[03:06] <Actionman> how do i upgrade to it
[03:06] <hipitihop> Slart, I'm going to try and see if I can get Cacti going....thanks for your help.
[03:06] <sh> guys what's the command to find out whether I have usb 1.1. or 2.0
[03:06] <genii> work afk
[03:06] <alexio> cool will try now
[03:06] <Slart> hipitihop: good luck
[03:06] <qazibasit> which system u have
[03:06] <Bo1> pici:am bored.
[03:06] <Poundo> any utilities for linux server like filemon. a free windows utility that shows running processes, what the request are for them like open, create etc. What user made the request, and if the request was successful
[03:06] <qazibasit> if u have a P4 or above then u have usb 2.0
[03:07] <Daverocks> sh: lshw will probably tell you
[03:07] <qazibasit> P3 and below have USB 1.0 or 1.1
[03:07] <sh> qazibasit: thanx
[03:07] <Carroarmato0> Actionman: Might have some problems with fonts... but that depends on the screen.... and when booting from the live-cd chances are you won't see the booting screen if you have intel video card... but once it's installed or virtualized it runs fine
[03:07] <Pici> Bo1: Theres no reason to do that. And even if you were going to try, it would cause problems. Some packages arent meant to be installed with other packages.
[03:07] <Poundo> I am tring to see what users is being denied access to a particular file path
[03:07] <sh> bbl guys
[03:07] <Bo1> pici:that is why i said is there a way to force download
[03:08] <alexio> okay i've done that
[03:08] <erikst> Hi! Can anyone help me so that I can use some sort of win media player i Opera on Ubuntu?
[03:08] <alexio> restart networking?
[03:08] <genii> alexio: Yes
[03:08] <Pici> Bo1: You are asking for your system to break.
[03:08] <Poundo> so I can include that user in the group with permission on that particular file
[03:08] <Daverocks> Bo1: next time i intentionally break one of my systems i might do it your way, lol
[03:08] <Adian> so, I'm a long-time Debian user, first time Ubuntu user.  I'm looking to set up a machine for a non-technical friend.  I'm having trouble with the wireless configs, specifically getting the GUI to give me options for WPA.  Anyone feel like helping me out?
[03:09] <Bo1> pici:well i used windows before i was able to download all with out crashing my system
[03:09] <pibe86> hello, i am sending bits to the parallel port, how can i know from the pc if they have been sent ?
[03:09] <Bo1> daverocks:am a expert on crashing systems.
[03:09] <Bo1> lol
[03:09] <Daverocks> Bo1: :P
[03:10] <Pici> Bo1: Windows doesnt have a standard packaging system nor even the idea of a package repository, so I'm not sure what you mean by that comment.
[03:10] <Bo1> daverocks:my windows i had crashed so many times i lost count.
[03:10] <Carroarmato0> Adian: WPA is still a bit difficult to set up in Feisty... you have to install the wpasupplicant.. but it doesn't work gracefuly and depends on the wireless card
[03:10] <Bo1> pici:going to download page of windows
[03:10] <Bo1> pici:you can download everything it offers to you.
[03:10] <Adian> Carroarmato0: ok.. I've got wpasupplicant and it works fine when I set it up manually
[03:10] <Adian> Carroarmato0:  in fact, it works if I manually configure /etc/network/interfaces and use ifup
[03:11] <kapo> wanna ask about rogram to play iso game
[03:11] <Adian> Carroarmato0: but i just can't get the damn GUI to give me the option.    If you are really bored and looking for something to install, check out http://debaday.debian.net/ Most of these are available in the Ubuntu repos.
[03:12] <Pici> jonathan_: Excuse me?
[03:12] <alexio> still seems to be causing an issue
[03:12] <Adian> Carroarmato0:  heh.  should I just get rid of the avahi junk and do it manually, or should I update to a testing version?
[03:12] <Carroarmato0> Adian: evolution of human society= we learn maners from bots ;)
[03:13] <Adian> Carroarmato0: heh.  bad words are a dumb idea.  society really doesn't need them
[03:14] <Carroarmato0> Adian: I don't think it's avahis fault... rather the way network manager does it's stuff... ofcourse you can disable avahi through the network managment
[03:14] <Speck> Hi everyone, I'm experiencing a strange pb : I burnt successfully the last ubuntu, then tried to boot it, but a black screen appears and "busybox" is lauching by itself. I'm using ubuntu for a few years now (although I'm still an absolute beginner), and don't see what it could be at all. Thanks in advance.
[03:14] <cosmodad> Adian: sure it does. It's humanity's way to let off some steam. ;)
[03:14] <Adian> cosmodad: well sure, I don't mind the use of them, it's the idea that some should be banned from certain venues... =)
[03:14] <laucky> cosmodad: i can confirm this
[03:14] <gehel_> Hi !Anyone knows how to configure an install preseed so that it will download additional packages from the net ?
[03:15] <laucky> cosmodad your opinion, i mean
[03:15] <Adian> Carroarmato0: so I haven't figured out how to convince avahi to leave me alone.  I had it almost working at one point through /etc/network/interfaces, but could never get it working at boot time
[03:15] <cosmodad> Adian: true
[03:15] <genii> alexio: Are you back to just eth0 now?
[03:15] <krzychu_> u
[03:15] <Bo1> pici:there is 21000 package: how can i not download all that. i just want to see everything it can offer!
[03:16] <alexio> i only have one entry in interfaces now which is eth1
[03:16] <genii> alexio: The idea here is to make what the box sees now as eth1 back into eth0
[03:16] <alexio> cool will have a bit of a tinker with it
[03:16] <alexio> many thanks
[03:16] <Adian> I've been running sid on debian for quite a while, so I don't mind running an unstable version of Ubuntu, if the GUI or other tools will actually support WPA more easily
[03:17] <genii> alexio: So putting the new mac address into /etc/iftab with the name of eth0 and in /etc/network/interfaces only eth0 entry
[03:18] <Carroarmato0> Adian: Found a tutorial to make Network manager work with wpasupplicant... but it's in italian ;)
[03:18] <Poundo> no takes on the file access monitor script or util?
[03:18] <Adian> heh
[03:18] <Carroarmato0> Adian: I can give you the link and translate bits of it ^^
[03:18] <Poundo> no takers?
[03:18] <Adian> Carroarmato0: well I found several tutorials an they made it seem SO EASY!  but none work
[03:19] <Adian> Carroarmato0: you can send me the link and I can run it through a translator
[03:19] <alexio> cool
[03:19] <Carroarmato0> Adian: http://alexit.wordpress.com/2007/05/23/network-manager-065-per-ubuntu-feisty-deb/
[03:19] <Adian> Carroarmato0:  Frankly, I'm surprised that while running under the ndiswrapper the WPA isn't supported
[03:19] <Carroarmato0> Adian: it suggests that you should upgrade to network manager 0.6.5
[03:19] <Adian> Carroarmato0: my native driver doesn't have WPA support yet, but ndis does
[03:20] <alexio> i did that but i loose my connection and get the error "Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0"
[03:20] <Adian> Carroarmato0: ok, let me check my version
[03:20] <alexio> thats when i restart networking
[03:20] <Lhademmor> There is something here I don't understand....  Adian's
[03:21] <genii> Lhademmor: Did you try command-line   sudo apt-get upgrade       ?
[03:21] <Adian> Carroarmato0: I'll read through the page a bit, just a sec
[03:21] <Lhademmor> genii: Trying now
[03:21] <agustin> hola
[03:21] <grotte26> hello
[03:21] <Adian> baikonur: having issues convincing the Ubuntu network GUI to let me use WPA with ndiswrapper on Feisty
[03:21] <agustin> alguien habla espaol?
[03:21] <Lhademmor> 94 upgrades?! zOMG
[03:21] <Carroarmato0> Adian: If ya don't understand bits of it I can help translate... usefull knowing 5 languages.. ;)
[03:22] <fwiffo_> por ac
[03:22] <agustin> =)
[03:22] <baikonur> Adian: does it work with wpa_supplicant directly?
[03:22] <Lhademmor> genii: There, it woke up! Thanks!
[03:22] <agustin> ando con un problemita con un md5
[03:22] <baikonur> agustin: #ubuntu-es
[03:22] <genii> Lhademmor: np
[03:22] <agustin> gracias =)
[03:22] <jonathan_> and now, how to install GLIB? and what's GLIB FOR?
[03:22] <Carroarmato0> Lhademmor: You think that's freaky? My internet is running at 13 kb/s... and I'm updating! 2h and 30m! :D
[03:22] <Morrowyn> when is the wpa/wpa2 thing going to be default on ubuntu?
[03:23] <grotte26> hallo spricht jemand deutsch
[03:23] <Carroarmato0> Morrowyn: when it's properly supported in Network Manager
[03:23] <baikonur> grotte26: #ubuntu-de
[03:23] <Schumbi> Hello
[03:23] <grotte26> hello
[03:23] <Carroarmato0> grotte26: Ich verstehe ein bisschen duitsch ;)
[03:23] <jonathan_> how to install glib?
[03:23] <Adian> baikonur: yup, works great evne through /etc/network/interfaces
[03:23] <warbler> !de

[03:23] <Lhademmor> I love upgrading. It's like watching something beautiful grow :P
[03:23] <Morrowyn> ok, so probably with the next release i reckon
[03:23] <Adian> baikonur: but avahi gets in my way most of the time
[03:24] <grotte26> coole aussprache
[03:24] <Adian> Carroarmato0: nice!  I wish I knew more than one spoken language... =\
[03:24] <W9ZEB> Daverocks: THANKS:)  that broadcom entry was perfect.
[03:24] <mr-russ> anybody using gusty test with dual monitor?
[03:24] <laucky> grotte26 i am german.
[03:24] <jonathan_> !glib
[03:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about glib - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:24] <Daverocks> W9ZEB: no problem
[03:24] <Carroarmato0> grotte26: vielen dank! ^^
[03:24] <grotte26> i can a littlebit
[03:24] <W9ZEB> Daverocks: I knew it shouldn't be that difficult.  Just finding a "complete" set of instructions seems to be half the battle.
[03:25] <genii> mr-russ: Yes but on a box i am not near right now, it's at home and i'm at work
[03:25] <Daverocks> W9ZEB: haha yeah
[03:25] <jonathan_> !C
[03:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about c - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:25] <baikonur> Adian: what do you mean by ahavi gets in your way? normally you have a link-local address that does not disturb anything
[03:25] <Morrowyn> mr-russ i always use the nvidia driver -> twinview thing for my dual monitor setup
[03:25] <laucky> ubotu is a noob - no idea about c?! ;-))
[03:25] <Schumbi> grott16 : just type /join #ubuntu-de and you are at the right channel
[03:25] <Morrowyn> poor ubotu
[03:25] <Adian> baikonur: avahi-* likes to add a secondary interface alias and remove my IP configuration
[03:25] <mr-russ> Morrowyn: I have intel945 laptop.  I'm trying to work myself up to be able to report a bug in an intelligent way.
[03:26] <warbler> jonathon: what is the package you want that is the hassle?
[03:26] <Morrowyn> aha
[03:26] <laucky> haha ubotu gave me a private message - cool.
[03:26] <Adian> baikonur: creates wlan0:avahi and wlan0 loses it's IP
[03:26] <Carroarmato0> Adian: well you have ups and downs... you need to train all your languages or you'll lose some... then...  you get to a surtain point where you know a lot of languages, but master none of them ;)
[03:26] <Morrowyn> good luck with that
[03:26] <baikonur> Adian: is /etc/network/interfaces and the wpa_supplicant.conf not an option for you?
[03:26] <usd> where to get ubuntu beryl?
[03:26] <grotte26> gibts auch normale gesprchstemen
[03:26] <Adian> Carroarmato0: I can imagine... I have to practice on my native just to keep it up ;-)
[03:26] <warbler> !c++
[03:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about c++ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:26] <aguslp> hi all

[03:27] <grotte26> hey back
[03:27] <Schumbi> !time
[03:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about time - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:27] <Adian> baikonur: it is an option, not a good one, but I can't even get that working because avahi gets in there and doesn't let me have it configured at boot
[03:27] <baikonur> Adian: and if you stop avahi? sudo /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon stop
[03:27] <Morrowyn> what, no c++ either?
[03:27] <Bo1> got 2 wait 54 min
[03:27] <warbler> !ubotu

[03:27] <Adian> baikonur: that woudl probably work.  I've tried disabling various avahi startup scripts, but at boot time it still won't bring up that interface automatically
[03:27] <aguslp> how can I disable apt-get md5 checksum?
[03:27] <baikonur> adaptr: you can disable avahi completly by editing /etc/default/avahi-daemon
[03:27] <Adian> Carroarmato0: from US.  living on east coast right now
[03:27] <kapo> how to open xp from ubuntu?
[03:27] <baikonur> Adian, the message directed to adaptr was rfor you
[03:28] <kapo> use what?
[03:28] <wers> what's the best grammar and spelling checker that I can use with Ubuntu? even online checkers count
[03:28] <Carroarmato0> Adian: I live in Belgium... but I also lived in Africa and Italy.. that's why I know all those languages ^^
[03:28] <warbler> kapo: is it a duel boot?
[03:28] <Adian> baikonur: yeah, got it.  is there actually a way to get this working in the GUI though?  Would prefer that so the non-technical user I'm giving this box to can at least switch networks
[03:28] <kapo> yes
[03:28] <TataraKutere> hey everybody
[03:29] <Adian> Carroarmato0: that's pretty cool.  Want to visit Belgium soon
[03:29] <Adian> Carroarmato0: love good beer. ;-)
[03:29] <warbler> kapo: ubuntu was installed second?
[03:29] <TataraKutere> i need an advice about video players
[03:29] <kapo> yes warbeler
[03:29] <jonathan_> anybody can help me to install GLIB?
[03:30] <GreyGhost> !wx
[03:30] <Carroarmato0> Adian: be sure to bring a good umbrella.. because you are going to need it ^^  And hell yeah we got good beer... a lot stronger than those from The Netherlands :P
[03:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:30] <Adian> Carroarmato0: hehe
[03:30] <warbler> kapo: ok. There is a file called /etc/fstab - is xp listed in that
[03:30] <Adian> Carroarmato0: I'm originally from the northwest US.  Very rainy there.  Only pansies use umbrellas
[03:30] <Adian> Carroarmato0: =)
[03:30] <warbler> kapo: look for vfat or ntfs
[03:30] <Morrowyn> jonathaN, you might want to check  glibc????
[03:31] <kapo> fat32
[03:31] <Carroarmato0> Adian: we got crapy weather.. and at the moment we're in a ridicoulous political crisis :P
[03:31] <bauer_> on my old suse box i had a program called xml which i liked to beautify xml files to make them readable in vi. Is there such a program on ubuntu ?
[03:31] <Adian> !libglib
[03:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libglib - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:31] <Carroarmato0> Adian: hehe, the weather forecast calls our weather tropical! So I'm wearing my tropical clothes in da rain! xD
[03:31] <Adian> Carroarmato0: hmm, haven't paid attention to Belgian politics... election issues?
[03:31] <warbler> kapo: /etc/fstab will call xp something like hda - what is it called?
[03:31] <baikonur> Adian: I don't know. I never used the GUI and I don't know what the GUI does exactly so it's hard to debug it. did you try it already with avahi disabled completly? is it possible that you do not get the DHCP lease at boottime and therefore it falls back to avahi?
[03:32] <alexio> genni just to check my iftab should read like this eth0 mac 00:10:4B:B8:5F:FA
[03:32] <cdrappier> hi all
[03:32] <Adian> baikonur: that's possible.  sometimes my DHCP setup is a bit flaky, but doing it manually is usually pretty reliable
[03:32] <cdrappier> can anyone tell me how to change my default keyring password?
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Carroarmato0:  Adian please take that to #Ubuntu-offtopic
[03:33] <alexio> genni: just to check my iftab should read like this eth0 mac 00:10:4B:B8:5F:FA
[03:33] <Adian> baikonur: I'll try this 6.5 upgrade and see how it goes.  several tutorials online advertize that the GUI should work with WPA, but just never came up for me
[03:33] <Carroarmato0> Jack_Sparrow: Aiai captain! ^^
[03:33] <Adian> baikonur: the tutorial Carroarmato0 sent indicates 6.5 fixes some of that, and I'd think that ndiswrapper would be a priority
[03:33] <alexio> genni:what i mean is this kind of syntax
[03:34] <Lhademmor> I'm STILL waiting for Creative to support the f=("/?" X-Fi soundcards on Linux!
[03:34] <Lhademmor> >:(
[03:34] <Adian> it would indeed be nice if, in adding these GUIs, the Ubuntu developers didn't break perfectly good functionality from the base Debian.
[03:35] <baikonur> Adian: you know that the /etc/network/interfaces configuration and the network manager are incompatible?
[03:35] <Adian> baikonur: yeah, that's what I was just referring to ;-)
[03:36] <Adian> baikonur: dumb idea
[03:36] <Adian> baikonur: or if you insist on changing things, then remove /etc/network/interfaces
[03:36] <Lhademmor> http://www.ubuntu.com/files/u3/helpmenu.png
[03:36] <Lhademmor> Hey, I only have a button called "Help and Support"... How do I get that submenu in the picture?
[03:36] <Sivik> how do i go about setting up sendmail so it only is able to send from the localhost and from php
[03:36] <Adian> baikonur: and provide full functionality through a new method
[03:37] <tatters> I got 2 hard drive 1st is devoted to ubuntu ,swap etc. the second I use for storage I want to try out linuxmce, if I resize my second drive with enough free space for my storage and linuxmce , install linuxmce to my second drive will the existing grub manager pick it up without having to configure the multi boot?
[03:38] <baikonur> Adian: yeah, it's work in progress. I'm fine with /etc/network/interfaces, but I can understand that many users prefer a gui
[03:38] <JohnShortland> tatters: it'll probably overwrite your grub but add your other Os's to it
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> tatters: No
[03:39] <Adian> baikonur: oh, I'm not a GUI man, but my user will be.  config files are great, but don't fracture the system, that's all
[03:39] <keito> should I be running some form of spyware-blocking/removing software under ubuntu?
[03:39] <fw1987> ciao a tutti
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> tatters: It all depends on the installation process of linuxmce
[03:39] <baikonur> Adian: did you try wicd?
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> keito: no need
 sda1
[03:40] <Adian> baikonur: every GUI add-in should be backed up by a compatible config file that youc an edit by hand
[03:40] <Adian> baikonur: no, what's that?
[03:40] <keito> didn't think so
[03:40] <keito> ;0)
[03:40] <baikonur> Adian: http://wicd.sourceforge.net/features.php http://wicd.sourceforge.net/screenshot.php
[03:41] <baikonur> Adian: yeah, that would be perfectly reasonable. Network Manager does not provide such a config file?
[03:41] <warbler> kapo: easy wat first - yes - are you on feisty - 7.04 ubuntu?
[03:41] <kapo> yes
[03:41] <warbler> *way
[03:41] <tatters> Jack_Sparrow: I have no idea how it installs, I have the quick install dvd version, I guess I should just bite the bullet and see how it goes,btw can I use the same swap space for any linux distro or do they have to have their own?
[03:42] <Adian> baikonur: not that I know of.  looks like it actually writes some to /etc/network/interfaces, but it doesn't understand things when you edit that file
[03:42] <JohnShortland> tatters: yes you can share the swap partition
[03:42] <baikonur> Adian: poor design
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> tatters: They can share a swap, but sometimes it is easier to let their installer setup a second one.
[03:42] <Adian> baikonur: that wicd looks pretty cool.  do you know how it will conflict with network manager/avahi?
[03:43] <anandanbu> Help needed to format a IDE hdd which has been attached to my Ubuntu 7.04 machine with a SATA hdd

[03:43] <kapo> yes iam on ubuntu 7.04 now friest one the xp
[03:44] <kapo> xp on sda1
[03:44] <warbler> kapo: do you have in your menu - system tools-configuration editor?
[03:44] <anandanbu> Jack_Sparrow: there are restrictions to access those drives in Gpart
[03:44] <baikonur> Adian: if you install it network manager will be removed automatically. at least that's what the documentation says that I've just read. avahi does not have anything to with network manager or avahi as far as I know
[03:45] <baikonur> Adian: see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avahi_%28software%29
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> anandanbu: If you mean permissions etc before formatting... unmount it/them
[03:45] <Adian> baikonur: ok, that would be good if it is a clean replacement.
[03:45] <Adian> baikonur: I'll give it a shot
[03:45] <anandanbu> Jack_Sparrow: may i pm you
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> sure
[03:46] <kapo> no i havent

[03:56] <genii> andyp__: since most macs can use windows networking shares Samba isn't a bad choice there

[03:57] <warbler> kapo: click on configuration editor - it will then be in the menu
[03:57] <kdub432> yeniklasorr: be careful, removing packages may break your system beyond your linux-fixing skills
[03:57] <kapo> ahh i see the meanu
[03:57] <Carroarmato0> I have a question: I have vmware running... If I disable connctivity on my host... will the guest system still have a conection?
[03:57] <Dufresne26> hi. i need major help. i (stupidly) uninstalled the rerestricted modules and in the process killing my wireless. can anyone lend me a hand? im really dependent on wireless and the only reason im online now is thru xp. i have ipw3945 on feisty. appreciate it
[03:57] <andyp__> genii: is smbs the only alternative or are there others?
[03:58] <yeniklasorr> kdub432 : ok
[03:58] <kapo> what from system tools
[03:58] <andyp__> samba
[03:58] <warbler> kapo: one box in config ed & xp will be there always
[03:58] <Adian> Carroarmato0: thanks.  Saw that one already though.
[03:58] <genii> andyp__: There is also some appletalk client/server for linux but I don't know much about that one specifically
[03:58] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26: Might try to download the package and install it manually by using a usb key or something...
[03:58] <warbler> kapo: config editor
[03:59] <genii> !info netatalk | andyp__
[03:59] <ubotu> andyp__: netatalk: AppleTalk user binaries. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.0.3-5 (feisty), package size 693 kB, installed size 1932 kB
[03:59] <baikonur> Adian: it's important to notice that you have to use wext and not ndiswrapper as the driver with wpa_supplicant: Ndiswrapper NO LONGER SUPPORTS the 'ndiswrapper' driver backend as of version 1.16. Therefore, 'wext' must be used unless you use an antiquated ndiswrapper release."
[03:59] <Dufresne26> Carroarmato0 which package? where do I download it? sorry newb here
[03:59] <Adian> baikonur: yup, using wext.  remember my networking works fine with the wpasupplicant config
[04:00] <baikonur> Adian: already tested wicd? I've just installed it.  The synaptic description refers to mono-jit, mono-mcs, and mono-utils, but those don't see available
[04:05] <Pici> kloeri: ty
[04:05] <Morrowyn> taxman  mono-develop?
[04:05] <taxman> Wine tells me I need to install mono to run a .Net executable
[04:05] <usd> this channel needs more op!!
[04:05] <kapo> sorry  but  really all i found system log and monitor :(
[04:05] <kloeri> let's hope we've killed all the bots
[04:05] <usd> hope so
[04:06] <taxman> Morrowyn: that's got two of the three. Thanks. Didn't need to develop, so I never thought of that
[04:06] <usd> why there is no op on this channel?
[04:06] <Hobbsee> usd: there are.  we need staffesr.
[04:06] <Morrowyn> oh ok :)
[04:06] <warbler> kapo: in control center?
[04:06] <kloeri> there's several staffers here
[04:07] <Adian> nice, this wicd works pretty well.  let's see if I can get the tray working
[04:07] <Hobbsee> kloeri: you've gotten rid of the bots now?
[04:07] <akos> Can anyone please help me out why this does not output anything at all? http://www.pastebin.ca/674725
[04:07] <kapo> yes iam in
[04:07] <kloeri> Hobbsee: looks like it but they might return from new IPs
[04:07] <taxman> hmm, I still get the same message "install the Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables"
[04:07] <Hobbsee> kloeri: i assume you'll keep watching, and deal with them?
[04:07] <kloeri> of course
[04:08] <CptAJ[vzla] > hey, anyone know where I can get a package for the latest rtorrent/libtorrent?
[04:08] <warbler> kapo find main menu icon - then on left says applications - under that is system tools - click that then click config editor
[04:08] <drock> That flood was annoying.
[04:08] <Carroarmato0> lol
[04:09] <Carroarmato0> bot attack?
[04:09] <warbler> kapo: click the main menu icon
[04:09] <Davy_Jones> this is like a street
[04:09] <PanzerMKZ_> wow that was nasty
[04:09] <Davy_Jones> or a metro station
[04:09] <drock> looked like bot attack
[04:10] <elliotjhug> Can someone explain the bot attack please?
[04:10] <luite_> is it possible to play hddvd content in linux? (if necessary, I can rip/decrypt it first in windows, but I'd still have the .evo files with vc1 content)
[04:10] <warbler> Davy_Jones: colourful street :)
[04:10] <Davy_Jones> elliotjhug: join any yahoo chat room.. you will know what a bot attack is in 10 seconds
[04:10] <elliotjhug> Davy_Jones: I know what one is, I just wanted to know a few more details since I walked in late
[04:10] <warbler> !ubotu
[04:11] <Carroarmato0> I have a question: I'm using Vmware on Ubuntu... by killing connectivity on the host.. does the guest on Vmware still have connectivity?
[04:11] <cropalat_> lose
[04:11] <praet> Carroarmato0: lan settings?
[04:11] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:11] <Davy_Jones> elliotjhug: "people" been goin in and out like crazy
[04:12] <Carroarmato0> praet: no I need to reset eth0 becaus I'm going to update network manager
[04:12] <kapo> ok  done
[04:12] <wolferine> morning
[04:12] <Dufresne26> Carroarmato0 i tried modprobe ipw3945 . nothing happened
[04:12] <taxman> Carroarmato0: how are you killing the host's conectivity?
[04:12] <elliotjhug> Davy_Jones: ah
[04:12] <Bo1> money$money$money$
[04:12] <Carroarmato0> taxman: I'm planning to do a " sudo ifdown && sudo ifup "
[04:13] <taxman> Carroarmato0: I can try it in a little while if you want a test :)
[04:13] <praet> kloeri: thanks
[04:13] <warbler> steel_lady: are you feisty yet?
[04:13] <Davy_Jones> how can i use ubuntu 6.06 to tell ubuntu to search for the wireless networks in range?
[04:13] <kapo> i make lancher config editor   and open it say theres was an error launchiing application
[04:13] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26: ok... try typing " sudo modprobe ip " and then instead of pressing enter, press the tab key... you will get a list of drivers alphabeticaly... look the one that you need
[04:14] <taxman> Davy_Jones: it does it automatically on boot. Sudo dhclient will try again
[04:14] <steel_lady> warbler, I just did it but as you can guess that uPnP is still the problem, so it was on half. my update manager is offering me constantly to reinstall it but it comes to en error
[04:14] <steel_lady> i really need to resolve this
[04:14] <Davy_Jones> taxman: but i have 2 wireless networks and i wanna choose which one
[04:14] <Carroarmato0> taxman: yeah thx that would be great... I'm downloading updates in Ubuntu Gutsy Tribe 5.. so I don't want to interopt that ^^
[04:15] <taxman> Davy_Jones: ahh, don't know about that one
[04:15] <Dufresne26> Carroarmato0 ok. ill try that. need to reboot to feisty though. ill let you know. thanks
[04:15] <c01100011> i switch resolutions frequently when connecting my laptop to my tv, avant-window-navigator places it's self on the bottom of my 1600x1200 display, but when i switch to 1300x768 the application is offscreen @ the bottom (i know because when i killall avant-..... flames from the compiz fusion effect rise up) any idea how to make all applications move after a screen resolution change ?
[04:15] <Carroarmato0> taxman: good luk
[04:15] <Davy_Jones> taxman: k, thanks
[04:15] <warbler> kapo: it should be in the menu.. main menu-system-preferences-control center if you are using feisty - I will find the command for a launcher
[04:15] <taxman> Carroarmato0: good idea, I wanted to grab that too :)
[04:15] <kapo> thanks warbler  the error make that not appear
[04:15] <christian_> yo
[04:15] <erUSUL> Davy_Jones: try network manager or wifi radar
[04:15] <christian_> what's the right way to say it; Ubuntu Linux OR Linux Ubuntu?
[04:16] <Zombie> I have an issue with Fiesty
[04:16] <W9ZEB> does anyone know if linux-uvc was replaced with something else in 7.04?
[04:16] <Zombie> I can no longer initialize my Wifi without Sudo.
[04:16] <Davy_Jones> erUSUL: i don't think network manager is included in 6.06
[04:16] <CptAJ[vzla] > so, no one knows where I can get a package for the latest rtorrent and libtorrent?
[04:16] <christian_> what's the right way to say it; Ubuntu Linux OR Linux Ubuntu?
[04:16] <Tomcat_> christian_: Ubuntu Linux
[04:16] <mc44> christian_: Ubuntu Linux, or just Ubuntu :)
[04:16] <genii> christian_: the first one
[04:16] <Davy_Jones> CptAJ[vzla] : try #azureus-support
[04:16] <neozen> usually just ubuntu will suffice
[04:17] <steel_lady> warbler, I really have to do something with this but I dont kow what
[04:17] <Zombie> I used to be able to do it from Userland.
[04:17] <Davy_Jones> CptAJ[vzla] : or #azureus even
[04:17] <neozen> probably should be capitalized though (turns read)
[04:17] <neozen> *red
[04:17] <christian_> tomcat_, mc44 and genii: How do you know? :- )
[04:17] <Carroarmato0> taxman: it's just that I don't want to kill my connection on VMWare where I'm updating Gutsy... but I also want to update network manager manually on my host... which involves killing the connection and reopening it... hate to restart the update of Gusty cuz I've got a really slow connection right now... don't want to respend 2 hours for it... ^^'
[04:17] <CptAJ[vzla] > Davy_Jones: azureus? why would they know about rtorrent?
[04:17] <mc44> christian_: that's just the way it is :)
[04:17] <Tomcat_> christian_: Experience... it's the same with all distros. Debian Linux. Gentoo Linux. Fedora Linux. SuSE Linux. ;)
[04:17] <steel_lady> warbler Could not install 'linux-igd'
[04:17] <steel_lady> The upgrade has aborted. Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport.package linux-igd is already installed and configured
[04:17] <steel_lady> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-igd_0.cvs20060201-2ubuntu1_i386.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[04:17] <Davy_Jones> CptAJ[vzla] : cuz they made the "best" bittorrent client
[04:17] <genii> christian_: It's like naming cars. you don't say Escort ford    you say ford Escort
[04:18] <taxman> Carroarmato0: I have a strong feeling it won't work, but I'll try it. I'll have to leave and come back here I'm sure
[04:18] <xerophyte> could somebody compare thunderbird vs mutt which is really good concole email client?
[04:18] <CptAJ[vzla] > Davy_Jones: =/ yeah, right
[04:18] <christian_> mc44, tomcat_, genii: tnx for answers.
[04:18] <Carroarmato0> taxman: ok thx!
[04:19] <warbler> steel_lady: bugger me - you'll wreck the whole system :) - just a glitch I expect!
[04:19] <super-6-1> hello i have a game called crossfire how do i install it?
[04:19] <Carroarmato0> taxman: doesn't vmware use it's own network device? Or are they linked to my hosts one?
[04:19] <warbler> steel_lady: did you file the bug?
[04:20] <steel_lady> warbler, this is just a little stupid thing, it shouldn't be so hard to get rid of, just that I am one ignorant
[04:20] <christian_> what's right of this: 'Ubuntu Linux and XP' or 'XP and Ubuntu Linux' ?
[04:20] <steel_lady> warbler, yes I did
[04:20] <kdub432> Carroarmato0: you can configure it to have an external IP or to piggyback off the hosts loopback
[04:20] <Davy_Jones> CptAJ[vzla] : it is not in the default repositories, yes?
[04:20] <Tomcat_> christian_: XP and Ubuntu Linux. But really, your choice. :)
[04:20] <steel_lady> warbler but I filed other bugs also without any effect before
[04:20] <super-6-1> windows then ubuntu
[04:20] <super-6-1> no
[04:20] <super-6-1> yea yea
[04:21] <nathan> I am trying to play an ogg and an avi file in vlc and totem, but both just immediately close when trying to play the file... anyone know why?
[04:21] <nathan> I have never played videos before
[04:21] <warbler> steel_lady: nothing ignorant about it - obviously the system knows the error - you tried everything!
[04:21] <Tomcat_> nathan: Call vlc in terminal and see the output.
[04:21] <Carroarmato0> kdub432: I think vmware has it's own nat... ifconfig showed it has a different ip than my eth0
[04:21] <christian_> tomcat_ Hehe, ok.. just curios.. why did you choose that?
[04:21] <mc44> christian_: much nicer if you just drop the XP ;)
[04:21] <kdub432> nathan, using compiz or beryl?
[04:21] <nathan> kdub432: beryl
[04:21] <Tomcat_> christian_: It's more polite to first name something that you don't personally use, and save the best for the last position. ;)
[04:21] <Davy_Jones> nathan: i suggest mplayer for video
[04:22] <christian_> mc44: Hehe! totally agree, but we have to use xp at school.
[04:22] <christian_> tomcat_ ;)
[04:22] <kakaruto> where can i find URL for internet radio for Rhythmbox Music Player?
[04:22] <steel_lady> warbler, the system knows it should be reinstalled but it does not permit to be removed i suppose i should remove it forcefully!
[04:22] <kdub432> nathan, Xv (what linux sometimes uses to display video) doesnt play nice with beryl try to see if the video plays with beryl off, and let me know if that works
[04:22] <warbler> kapo: ? - type warbler first - shows up red on my comp - easy to find you
[04:23] <lnx^> hey, anyone using multisync for syncing the phone and the computer?
[04:23] <Bo1> money$money$money$
[04:23] <nathan> here's the error: http://rafb.net/p/HWbtED82.html
[04:23] <Davy_Jones> why use beryl? it was just made for the videos at youtube
[04:23] <taxman> Carroarmato0: on a Windows vm, the gutsy tr5 iso just paused while the network was down and then continued when it came back
[04:23] <Nyu`> hi :)
[04:23] <Davy_Jones> not practical really
[04:23] <lnx^> i'm trying to, but my provider has restricted the use of the syncml server by the IMEI code
[04:23] <Vlet> In 'software sources' where does the list of mirrors come from?
[04:23] <Bo1> money$money%
[04:24] <kapo> warbler  ok  i see
[04:24] <lnx^> how can i find out what my computer's multisync IMEI code is?
[04:24] <warbler> steel_lady: your /home is on a seperate  partition - install feisty fresh - that will teach edgy!
[04:24] <Nyu`> i got a big prob :x
[04:24] <fr500> dones anyone have problems with totem firefox plugin
[04:24] <fr500> won't play anything for me

[04:24] <mikubuntu> help. my friend and i are trying to listen to cd for the first time on xubntu, and the cd player doesn't work right off.  are there some configuration issues with the players that anyone might know of?
[04:24] <Bo1> maybe ill teach system lang for 3million every 1 month
[04:24] <Nyu`> can someone is able to help me? :x
[04:25] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 i did sudo modprobe ipw3945 - nothing happened.
[04:25] <nathan> Davy_Jones: so you think mplayer might work?
[04:25] <kapo> warbler really thanks
[04:25] <Davy_Jones> nathan: i don't recommend totem for anything
[04:25] <Carroarmato0> taxman: hmm... but will it be the same with me?  My host is Ubuntu... I checked ifconfig and it showed that the vmware devices have their own ip that is different from my host's eth0
[04:25] <mc44> Nyu`: just ask your question :)
[04:25] <warbler> kapo: config editor open? - good  - click little arrow next to apps - then scroll down to nautilus - click that then desktop
[04:25] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26: do you have any access to a ethernet conncetion?
[04:25] <steel_lady> warbler, i don't have so much space in my home! the problem is that i have to expand partitions and anyway i need to use a bunch of programs like iraf, saoimage, fitsort etc that i can not install
[04:26] <Bo1> money+money=Money$
[04:26] <dazjorz> Hi
[04:26] <Bo1> hi
[04:26] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 none. the only way that I go online is thru xp =(
[04:26] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: ?
[04:26] <noctol> everytime i boot ubuntu i need to run a command, else i have no sound. is there a way this will happen automatically?
[04:26] <dazjorz> Is it a good idea to upgrade to Gutsy Gibbon right now, for regularly experienced people?
[04:26] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 im totally dependent on wireless
[04:27] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: What is your pc like? Are you dual booting Windows and linux?
[04:27] <Morrowyn> if you dont mind bugs and such?
[04:27] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 yes
[04:27] <dazjorz> Morrowyn: to me?
[04:27] <alesan> hey
[04:27] <Morrowyn> :) yup
[04:27] <warbler> steel_lady: I was just saying that you could remove edgy - install feisty & still keep /home
[04:27] <dazjorz> noctol: Ubuntu / Kubuntu? (Gnome / KDE?)
[04:27] <Bo1> ubuntu:does your company offer of teach of your software with commands?
[04:27] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: Hmm and does your pc/laptop have an ethernet port?
[04:27] <noctol> dazjorz: ubuntu
[04:27] <mc44> dazjorz: it's still alpha and likely to break
[04:28] <alesan> what is the purpose of esd? is it possible to disable it and, if yes, what would be the disadvantages?
[04:28] <noctol> dazjorz: does that matter?
[04:28] <dazjorz> mc44: Ok thanks
[04:28] <mc44> dazjorz: however, if you are feeling brave :)
[04:28] <super-6-1> here can i get a list of reops?
[04:28] <taxman> Carroarmato0: yes, Feisty is my host too. My Ip
[04:28] <dazjorz> noctol: Well, I know how to autostart programs in KDE but I don't have a clear idea of how to do it with Gnome
[04:28] <warbler> kapo: in desktop is setting - volumes_visible - check that
[04:28] <dazjorz> noctol: What command is it?
[04:28] <nathan> mplayer says error opening the selected video_out device
[04:28] <taxman> Carroarmato0: my ip's are different too
[04:28] <Nyu`> hi i have a prob with ubuntu , i have a msg FWH not detected and nothing after that :x
[04:29] <steel_lady> warbler i do not understand you, what would i do with feisty without programs on other partition
[04:29] <Davy_Jones> mplayer ftw
[04:29] <dazjorz> mc44: I'm quite brave in these things, but I don't like likelyness to break, so I'll wait for a beta
[04:29] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 yes it does. my problem is theres no way that i can use ethernet as its not within range. im online usin WAN
[04:29] <noctol> noctal: i don't know the command, that's why i ask the question.but i was more looking for a command line way to get this done
[04:29] <Morrowyn> damn, too much sugar in a row
[04:29] <Nyu`> do someone have a solution? :x
[04:29] <noctol> everytime i boot ubuntu i need to run a command, else i have no sound. is there a way this will happen automatically?
[04:29] <Carroarmato0> taxman: Gutsy just finished it's update... so I can disconnect safely now.. thx for the help though! ^^
[04:30] <taxman> Carroarmato0: heh, no problem
[04:30] <taxman> Carroarmato0: chicken :)
[04:30] <Bo1> how do i install jave runtime environment?
[04:30] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: Hmm yeah... tricky situation...
[04:30] <warbler> steel_lady: don't know your system - just saying that /home could be preserved - other progs mostly can be reinstalled
[04:30] <Carroarmato0> taxman: :P
[04:30] <Ar-Pharazon> Hi, I think I've run into a bug with "ntp support"
[04:30] <kakaruto> where can i find URL for internet radio for Rhythmbox Music Player?
[04:30] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: is it a pc or a laptop that you have?
[04:30] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: What kind of bug?
[04:30] <Vlet> What file contains the list of available mirrors which appears in the software sources applet?
[04:31] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0: laptop
[04:31] <Zombie> I can no longer initialize my Wifi without Sudo.
[04:31] <Zombie> I used to be able to do it from Userland.
[04:31] <Zombie> Whatcauses this?
[04:31] <TataraKutere_> hey dudes..:)
[04:31] <Davy_Jones> Zombie: permit the user
[04:31] <Bo1> how do i install jave runtime environment?
[04:31] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, when I try to sync the time it says I need to install NTP support, I click install but nothing happens.
[04:31] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: Is your access point doing all the routing itself or is the access point connected to a router?
[04:31] <taxman> heh, it's pretty cool to watch a windows installer run flawlessly in Wine
[04:31] <Zombie> How?
[04:31] <warbler> Bol:synaptic
[04:32] <Bo1> pici:after your done can you tellme how to install something?
[04:32] <baikonur> join #ubuntu-de

[04:32] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: hold on, let me get you a link
[04:32] <Bo1> warbler:what is it called when i searh?
[04:32] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 it's doing all the routing itself
[04:32] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: Crap...
[04:32] <TataraKutere_> Pici, are you speakin' to me?
[04:33] <warbler> kapo: look for the desktop setting - then look for volumes_visible - in config editor
[04:33] <Dufresne26_> :(
[04:33] <TataraKutere_> if so I'm holdin' on..:D
[04:33] <sque> Hi! I am using Gutsy Tribe 5, and I am looking for someone to help me with new application displayconfig-gtk. I can't use it at all, and I want to track the bugs of this application on my system and report them. Is there any specific channel for this?
[04:33] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, actually it may not be a problem with ntp per se, it did the same thing when I tried to enable my nvidia drivers. I would click install but nothing would happen.
[04:33] <Pici> TataraKutere_: I wasnt.
[04:33] <TataraKutere_> :(
[04:33] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: It should come up with a prompt to ask you for your password.
[04:33] <warbler> Bol: java
[04:33] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: Guess it's going to be sergery for Ubuntu
[04:33] <kapo> ahh  i see
[04:33] <TataraKutere_> Pici, could anybody help me?
[04:34] <Pici> !icons | TataraKutere_
[04:34] <ubotu> TataraKutere_: Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (Gnome) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE)
[04:34] <TataraKutere_> !icons
[04:34] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, nope, the dialog just closes itself and the sync setting remains "manual".
[04:34] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: So you'll have to get it working straigh off ubuntu...
[04:34] <Pici> TataraKutere_: Just read what it says above.
[04:34] <steel_lady> warbler, there is one other thing: update manager is proposing the update of the video driver but I can not marked it for updating because it is grayed-out. why?
[04:34] <Pici> !away > warbler
[04:34] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 if I reinstall the restricted modules, do u think that'll do i?
[04:34] <kapo>        :)
[04:34] <baikonur> Carroarmato0: did Adian say if he had success with wicd? I tried it and couldn't connect to my wlan although it said I were connected. no error message nothing. and the log in /opt/wicd/data didn't contain anything helpful. these GUIs seem to be in an too early state of development.
[04:34] <chapium> hi, i created a symlink to a file in /usr/bin, but it wont execute
[04:34] <TataraKutere_> okay, thanks a lot..:)
[04:34] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime Try using the command line if it doesnt work through the gui
[04:35] <Bo1> warbler:what is it called?
[04:35] <Carroarmato0> baikonur: haven't had any feedback from Adian yet...
[04:35] <rrowell>  i'm using Fiesty, I'm playing MAME games with a hot-rod joystick... THe problem is several of the un-remapable keys on the joystick are the left ALT and CONTROL keys... THus in the middle of a game often metacity will suddenly do something strange like move to a different desktop...  Is there any way to force metacity to let the app preview the keyboard events first?

[04:35] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: It might be that you could do that!
[04:35] <warbler> kapo: desktop - volumes_ visible
[04:35] <steel_lady> warbler, there is one other thing: update manager is proposing the update of the video driver but I can not marked it for updating because it is grayed-out. why?

[04:36] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 im lookinh aorund packages.ubuntu.com. i wonder im on the right track
[04:36] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: I think ubuntu saves the restricted drivers when they are installed... maybe by re-enabling them...
[04:36] <jkarns> hello
[04:36] <Davy_Jones> !java | Bo1
[04:36] <ubotu> Bo1: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:36] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 i completely uninstalled it :)
[04:36] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: When you try to re-enable them in the restricted driver app.. what does it?
[04:37] <whatspy> how do we convert a DOS text file into an UTF8 file ?
[04:37] <sunnypies> #/join java
[04:37] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, thanks, but is there anyway I could fix the GUI bug?
[04:37] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: What do you mean? Just unchecked the little box? Or remove it completly manually? O_o
[04:37] <Davy_Jones> DOS text ftw
[04:37] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: Have you played with your user's groups at all?
[04:38] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 I unchecked it - mark for completeremoval
[04:38] <jkarns> anyone know how to make a VB application connect to a SQL database on a Windows server. here is my error: Run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't create object.
[04:38] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_: Have you tried re-checking the box?
[04:38] <jkarns> anyone know how to make a VB application connect to a SQL database on a Windows server. here is my error: Run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't create object.
[04:39] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 um... not yet. i didnt think about it since i thought ud need to go online for it to work :)
[04:39] <kapo> warbler what you mean about  desktop - volumes_ visible
[04:39] <SlimeyPete> jkarns: wrong channel. Try ##windows.
[04:39] <Pici> jkarns: This is the Ubuntu support channel. Try asking in ##windows or ##programming
[04:39] <TataraKutere_> Pici: I'm sorry, but there's no trash icon in my desktop folder, even after checking "show hidden files"...:(
[04:39] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_:  If you're in luck, Ubuntu should have kept it should you want to re-enable it later.... go check!
[04:39] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, nope, I installed ubuntu yesterday. Didn't change anything but the theme.
[04:39] <jkarns> I know...I am trying to make this work in Ubuntu
[04:40] <jkarns> I am trying to make this work on Ubuntu
[04:40] <SlimeyPete> jkarns: eh? No VB on ubuntu, yet
[04:40] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_:  May the force be with you! ;)
[04:40] <jkarns> so an app that was written in VB won't work on Ubuntu?
[04:40] <Pici> TataraKutere_: In KDE or gnome?
[04:40] <Dufresne26_> Carroarmato0 ok. time to reboot and corss my fingers. thanks
[04:40] <warbler> kapo:?
[04:40] <Pici> jkarns: There is not ActiveX for Linux
[04:40] <Carroarmato0> Dufresne26_:  Good luck!
[04:40] <SlimeyPete> jkarns: might work under Wine, possibly
[04:41] <TataraKutere_> i dunno, what must i do to know? Pici...
[04:41] <jkarns> I can install with WINE, but cannot run.
[04:41] <Carroarmato0> Does anyone know if Gutsy has Compiz Fusion? Or just Compiz?
[04:41] <Pici> Carroarmato0: c-f
[04:41] <Bo1> how to i restart?
[04:41] <SlimeyPete> jkarns: you're probably out of luck then. Wine probably just doesn't support what the app is trying to do. Try theforums at winehq.com
[04:41] <Carroarmato0> Pici: Ow yeah baby!
[04:42] <TataraKutere_> Pici, I think it's Gnome, but i really am not sure...:(
[04:42] <jkarns> dang. wish this would work. I could really get in good with the boss if I could make it work.
[04:42] <TataraKutere_> this is ubuntu feisty fawn, which i had to install this morning I'm using..
[04:42] <nathan> Davey_Jones: mplayer says error opening the selected video_out device
[04:42] <Pici> TataraKutere_: You would need to open gconf-editor and navigate to /apps/nautilus/desktop and find a key to enable the trash
[04:43] <Bo1> how do i restart?
[04:43] <warbler> Bol: hit the control - alt - bakspace keys
[04:43] <Pici> Bo1: sudo reboot now
[04:43] <warbler> *backspace
[04:43] <Pici> warbler: That just restarts xwindows.
[04:43] <dbrewer_rjr> i am having a problem with feisty. I installed LAMP, tomcat, and mod_jk with apt-get install. Easy so far. I cannot find an example of what to change to enable jsp's to run in individual websites.
[04:43] <TataraKutere_> Pici: it saze no such file or directory...:(
[04:43] <Znortfl> Hello ubuntu people, the OpenOffice.org version I get from the repo (2.0.4) is not the version I want, which is the latest (2.2.1). Is there any convenient way to install the latest version of OO.org?
[04:44] <neverblue> morning
[04:44] <Chorus> can someone explain a call trace from the kernel to me?
[04:44] <warbler> Pici: k - restarts the session to
[04:44] <TataraKutere_> afternoon..:)
[04:44] <Pici> TataraKutere_: I think you need to install the gconf-editor first
[04:44] <TataraKutere_> well,... okay
[04:44] <TataraKutere_> would synaptic do that?
[04:44] <Pici> TataraKutere_: sudo apt-get install gconf-editor
[04:44] <runokiab> Carroarmato0: did you get my question (baikonur)?
[04:44] <Pici> TataraKutere_: Yes, synaptic could do it too.
[04:45] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: Have you ever done any updates yet?
[04:45] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, yes... Yesterday.
[04:45] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: hmmm....
[04:45] <TataraKutere_> ok, but synaptic is working right now, are you around for a while, mean... may i disturb you once again later to ask if there'll be a problem?
[04:45] <TataraKutere_> Pici...
[04:45] <Carroarmato0> runokiab: yes... you asked if Adian had new about that n??cd something
[04:45] <Pici> TataraKutere_: I might be.
[04:46] <Pici> TataraKutere_: If I dont respond, I'm afk, and you should ask someone else instead of waiting around for me.
[04:46] <runokiab> Carroarmato0: wicd, yes. I was lagging and didn't saw an answer. did you reply anything?
[04:46] <Ar-Pharazon> pici, by the way, I'm in Turkey, and I keep getting errors about repository indexes being missing. I figured the missing files were just downloaded from elsewhere.
[04:46] <TataraKutere_> ok, sure...
[04:46] <evri2> can someone help me?When i try to mount a ntfs file system,it says that it looks like swapspace.When i use qtparted it says swapspace.However when i use fdisk -l or cfdisk,It says it is ntfs.I can mount that system by forcing it as ntfs but it will not be listed in some services as a disk drive.Can someone help?
[04:46] <TataraKutere_> thanks a lot..:) Pici.
[04:46] <dbrewer_rjr> i am having a problem with feisty. I installed LAMP, tomcat, and mod_jk with apt-get install. Easy so far. I cannot find an example of what to change to enable jsp's to run in individual websites.
[04:46] <markdark> hi I have some problems getting my PCMCIA card working (Novatel Wireless U630).. When I look at dmesg I see the following: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35554
[04:46] <Carroarmato0> runokiab: nope, as a mather of fact I don't see him online....
[04:47] <warbler> kapo: any luck?
[04:47] <neverblue> dbrewer_rjr, would you have to configure apache to do that?
[04:47] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: That could be the issue.  You could try changing your software source location.
[04:47] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: There should be an entry in System>Administration for software sources, perhaps choose a different (but still geographically close) server.
[04:48] <dbrewer_rjr> neverblue: mod_jk is the bridge between apache and tomcat. I put entries in the virtualhosts, i tried lots of things. but i still need a difinative guide to follow, as this sh** don't work!!!
[04:48] <Nalleman> Hi, I have problem to unmount my extern HDD. I get the message "cant unmount driver". Im not reading or writing to the driver. Is there any bright linuxbrain that can help me?
[04:48] <noctol> everytime i boot ubuntu i need to run a command, else i have no sound. is there a way this will happen automatically?
[04:48] <dbrewer_rjr> two dayz now
[04:48] <evanlec> anyone know the easy way to get extra mouse buttons working?
[04:48] <kapo> warbler  thanks man i try to get  it but i thing theres error in my system
[04:49] <SeveredCross> Nalleman: Are you doing it from the terminal?
[04:49] <neverblue> dbrewer_rjr, if your trying to configure apache, I recommend joining #apache, as they are more suited to help, I imagine
[04:49] <taxman> noctol: what do you have to run?
[04:49] <genii> !buttons
[04:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about buttons - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:49] <dbrewer_rjr> godd idea, thanks\
[04:49] <noctol> taxman: a command
[04:49] <genii> bah
[04:49] <evanlec> ;o
[04:49] <SeveredCross> noctol: That's not very helpful.
[04:49] <michi> hello
[04:49] <taxman> noctol: you already said that
[04:50] <SeveredCross> Which command was I think the intent of that question.
[04:50] <Nalleman> SeveredCross, no
[04:50] <noctol> taxman: sorry, i thought the command itself was not important, it's sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[04:50] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[04:50] <michi> how can i change the output format in sed from string to integer ?
[04:50] <frankg> I need an easy way to migrate installed pkgs on one system to another
[04:50] <Nalleman> SeveredCross, how can I try that?
[04:51] <taxman> noctol: the specifics are always important :) see the faq in the channel topic :)
[04:51] <warbler> kapo: is the config editor-apps-nautilus-desktop-volumes_visible checked?
[04:51] <evanlec> anyone know the easy way to get extra mouse buttons working? (logitech fwd and back buttons)
[04:51] <SeveredCross> Nalleman: Open a terminal, then execute sudo umount /path/to/drive
[04:51] <SeveredCross> Just point to where it's mounted.
[04:51] <Pici> michi: 1. I dont think you can. 2. #bash would be a better place to ask.
[04:51] <neverblue> michi, bash scripting ?
[04:51] <taxman> noctol: do you know how to look for error messages to see why you have to do that?
[04:52] <Nalleman> SeveredCross, I should try that
[04:52] <bluestar> hello
[04:52] <SeveredCross> Eg. I have an external drive mounted at /media/simpledrive, so I would execute sudo umount /media/simpledrive
[04:52] <neverblue> michi, I agree with Pici :)
[04:52] <taxman> noctol: I certainly don't have many ideas of how to fix the problem, but you could always run that command automatically after login
[04:53] <bluestar> computer stoped running in the 26 run, and live cd also doesn't run.
[04:53] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, ok, I changed it to a server in Greece, but update manager says there are no new updates.
[04:53] <noctol> taxman: well i get errors if i don't run the command, there are more people with the same problem, i found on launchpad
[04:53] <Nalleman> SeveredCross, It works just great. Thanks
[04:53] <gilos> noctol: do you have an rc2.d or rc3.d script that starts the script?  or does everything in init.d run automatically without requiring a script in the rc2.d or rc3.d?
[04:53] <genii> dbrewer_rjr: http://www.howtoforge.com/apache2_tomcat5_mod_jk_integration
[04:53] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: It grabbed the new package lists though?
[04:53] <genii> Damn looks like he leaft
[04:53] <kapo> warbler  no  i cant really find it
[04:54] <genii> *left
[04:54] <Nalleman> SeveredCross, do you have any clue why it doesnt work when im right clicking on it?
[04:54] <michi> neverblue: pici ?
[04:54] <taxman> noctol: do you have the lauchpad link handy?
[04:54] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, It did "download package information".
[04:54] <neverblue> michi, a user in the channel
[04:54] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, 36 files I think.
[04:54] <Pici> michi: 1. I dont think you can. 2. #bash would be a better place to ask.
[04:54] <warbler> kapo: ok - that was first go
[04:54] <michi> neverblue: ok ;-)
[04:54] <SeveredCross> Nalleman: Generally only root can umount drives--especially ones that are mounted in fstab.
[04:54] <noctol> gilos: i don't have a script, it's just one command
[04:54] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: Try doing the ntp thing again.
[04:54] <warbler> kapo: can you go to terminal?
[04:54] <michi> pici: ah ok ,thnx
[04:54] <kapo> yes
[04:54] <SeveredCross> External drives technically should be mounted by HAL and unmountable by the user, but you never know.
[04:55] <tretle> could anyone recommend a "basic" ide and compiler for ubuntu?
[04:55] <tretle> as in the language basic
[04:55] <Pici> tretle: I was just going to ask ;)
[04:55] <tretle> :)
[04:55] <SeveredCross> Look into Gambas.
[04:55] <noctol> taxman: wat a sec
[04:55] <noctol> taxman: wait a sec
[04:55] <SeveredCross> !info gambas
[04:55] <ubotu> gambas: Visual development environment for the Gambas programming language. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.15-1.2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 954 kB, installed size 2228 kB
[04:55] <SeveredCross> Gambas is similar to basic.
[04:55] <SeveredCross> Except more full-featured I think.
[04:56] <Nalleman> SeveredCross, maybe it works if i dont start up the computer with the driver connected?
[04:56] <SeveredCross> Nalleman: Shouldn't make a difference..
[04:56] <bluestar> computer stoped running in the 26 run, and live cd also doesn't run.
[04:56] <nathan> can anyone tell me why mplayer works when I run it as mplayer -vo x11 (and how to make vlc and totem work in a similar fashion?)
[04:56] <tretle> thx very much for the advice
[04:56] <noctol> taxman: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/5455 1handyandy  provides the solution
[04:57] <SeveredCross> nathan: For VLC you have to go to its preferences and change its video output thing.
[04:57] <SeveredCross> You'll have to tick the advanced preferences box to see it.
[04:58] <nathan> I'm in there, there's a textbox for X11 Display and alternative fullscreen method checkbox, use shared memory checkbox and screen for fullscreen number
[04:58] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, Fix'd! Thanks
[04:58] <kapo> warbler iam on terminal
[04:58] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: Yay
[04:59] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, one more thing though, when I use themes other than Human some of the windows turn a rather ugly grey.
[04:59] <dooglus> I'm seeing corruption on my display: http://dooglus.rincevent.net/random/1188399476.png - which package should I report it against?
[04:59] <warbler> kapo: type - sudo gconf-editor - if it is on your system than it will show
[05:00] <warbler> kapo: you will have to know the admin password
[05:00] <noctol> taxman: can you do something with that?
[05:00] <warbler> * hit enter
[05:00] <nathan> SeveredCross: do you kno what needs to be set exactly?
[05:01] <nathan> SeveredCross: oh I need to change video output module to x11 then right?
[05:01] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: Check out the customize theme button, the gtk theme is probably set to something ugly.
[05:01] <kapo> warbler  nice  i found it
[05:01] <ParanoyaM> Hi Guys
[05:02] <tretle> right.... another question.... Does anyone know of any "basic" ide and compiler which is amd64bit compatible?
[05:02] <tretle> :D
[05:02] <kapo> warbler it work :)
[05:02] <moo2> what's an easy way to migrate pkgs to a remote box?
[05:02] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, there are 4 tabs in Customize, they are Controls, Colors, Window border, Icons.
[05:02] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: controls, sorry, I'm thinking too technical
[05:02] <warbler> kapo: click on - apps - nautilus - desktop - volumes_visible

[05:03] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: I'm not sure then, sorry.
[05:04] <mike390> i remember way back there was a guide to download a ton of ubuntu themes like ubuntu art repositories or something like that, does anyone know what i mean?
[05:04] <Pici> Ar-Pharazon: ahh... Its because the themes for sudo (root) are set differently.
[05:04] <tretle> mike390 - gnome-look.org
[05:04] <Ar-Pharazon> Pici, ah. So how do  fix that?
[05:05] <kapo> its really choice on volumes _visible
[05:05] <steel_lady> warbler, you here?
