[12:04] <azzmodan> iptables doesn't seem to be blocking anything and it worked before
[12:04] <macaco> i try to search on google two ;)
[12:04] <Hammy031> ok im downloading the alt cd now
[12:04] <neverblue> azzmodan, can you visit pages locally ?
[12:04] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031 install in text mode i think
[12:05] <azzmodan> The linux machine that does the gatewaying can open pages fine, the 2nd machine can ping/trace/telnet to stuff (except for port 80)
[12:05] <thedash> gordonjcp :: you know any reason why bmp doesn't seem to like the year or tracknumber tags ?
[12:05] <gordonjcp> thedash: nope
[12:05] <neverblue> azzmodan, can you view pages on the local server, view localhost ?
[12:05] <gordonjcp> thedash: file a bug?
[12:05] <vicentecarro> I have an usb disk that was corrupted. I launched fsck -a and it repaired it (taking about 6 hours). But now i have noticed that when i remove files in that filesystem i get no free space. Ideas?
[12:05] <azzmodan> I don't have a local webserver
[12:05] <Hammy031> ok thank you steve
[12:06] <gordonjcp> vicentecarro: general filesystem weirdness
[12:06] <gordonjcp> vicentecarro: copy off the files you want to save, and format the usb disk, maybe
[12:06] <thedash> gordonjcp :: not sure what to describe it as, the 'year' tag shows the first character, nothing more, and the 'tag' is empty
[12:06] <steveatlocalhost> hammy031 no problem
[12:06] <thedash> gordonjcp :: maybe bmp doesn't like unicode tags ?
[12:06] <gordonjcp> thedash: could be
[12:06] <gordonjcp> thedash: try straight ascii tags, and see if that solves it
[12:06] <neverblue> azzmodan, so you cannot view remote pages, on that box ?
[12:07] <gordonjcp> thedash: basically the more evidence you can give them, the more likely they are to be able to fix your bug
[12:07] <azzmodan> neverblue, correct and I can not telnet to port 80 either, but other ports and https work fine
[12:08] <neverblue> azzmodan, not sure what your problem is exactly, but good luck :)
[12:08] <Flannel> azzmodan: Apache?  Are your virtual hosts listening on port 80?
[12:08] <azzmodan> neverblue, yeah I know it's the weirdest thing and I've never seen it before :)
[12:09] <azzmodan> Flannel, it's about outgoing, I do not have anything listening on port 80 on either machines
[12:09] <barbarella> azzmodan:your log files could tell you more
[12:09] <Administrator> hi=
[12:10] <ByronFortescue> hello
[12:10] <azzmodan> I'n not seeing any errors, the connection just times out
[12:10] <barbarella> Administrator:hi bill
[12:10] <GBenemy> Hello there
[12:10] <Flannel> azzmodan: sounds like the server isn't running anything on port 80
[12:10] <Administrator> hi
[12:10] <Administrator> lolz
[12:10] <GBenemy> This is the third time i've tried to download the .iso for ubuntu
[12:10] <GBenemy> first time
[12:10] <ByronFortescue> can somebody point me to a good location to learn some stuff about ircii (terminal irc client).. I can't get the hang of it really :P
[12:10] <GBenemy> it stopped at 50mb
[12:10] <Flannel> !enter | GBenemy
[12:10] <ubotu> GBenemy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:10] <azzmodan> I'm sure google is running something on port 80
[12:11] <Flannel> ByronFortescue: you might try irssi instead
[12:11] <WX9J> just replaced motherboard, now x is not working, can anyone tell me how to configure from the command prompt ?
[12:11] <ByronFortescue> Flannel: Why?
[12:11] <neverblue> azzmodan, so you believe your port 80 is being blocked somehow ?
[12:11] <Administrator> ok bye people im done installing and burning my alt cd
[12:11] <neverblue> Azzkikr, blocked from incoming ?
[12:11] <Administrator> im going to test it now
[12:11] <GBenemy> sorry Flanne;.....second time it's stopped at 520mb. now i'm trying again, can anyone tell me as to why this keeps happening?  have stayed connected to the net for the whole time so it's not a timeout
[12:11] <neverblue> ops, azzmodan I meant
[12:11] <steveatlocalhost> administrator: good luck
[12:12] <Flannel> ByronFortescue: because it's more intuitive.  If all your looknig for is [terminal IRC client] , irssi might be abetter choice.  If you're dedicated to ircii, that's fine too
[12:12] <Administrator> ok
[12:12] <super-6-1> umm hello the ndiswrapper did not install from the disk
[12:12] <Administrator> btw im Hammy031
[12:12] <Administrator> lolz
[12:12] <Administrator> :-)
[12:12] <Flannel> super-6-1: ndiswrapper isn't on the disc in feisty
[12:12] <Administrator> bye
[12:12] <demonspork> I have a script I am trying to edit, it uses '  case "$1" in ' on the first line first line, then, the options for $1 come up, such as ' start) ' and '  stop)  '   Each option followed by the list of commands that are executed if it is the value of $1  .  How do I set an option that will run if $1 is not input?
[12:12] <super-6-1> oo now you tell me
[12:12] <Pici> demonspork: #bash
[12:12] <azzmodan> For some reason it seems this gateway stopped correctly gatewaying traffic over port 80
[12:12] <super-6-1> well my floopy wont mount
[12:13] <ByronFortescue> Flannel: Ok thanks for the suggestion, just wondering why you'd put it up.. I'll check if i can get irssi here..
[12:13] <Flannel> super-6-1: any other method of sneakernet?
[12:13] <neverblue> azzmodan, so its the gateway, or a machine on the LAN ?
[12:13] <super-6-1> Flannel i downloaded the ndiswapper via floppy and now the laptop wont mount the floopy
[12:13] <azzmodan> The machine on the lan has trouble being unable to establish connection to remote machines on port 80
[12:13] <Flannel> ByronFortescue: irssi is in main
[12:14] <thedash> why can't I remove comments from items added to the [default]  top panel ?
[12:14] <neverblue> azzmodan, did you set rules (iptables) on that box ?
[12:14] <super-6-1> i get this error when useing the floopy  mount: /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device
[12:14] <osmosis> does ubuntu have php4 ?
[12:14] <ByronFortescue> Flannel: I must confess, i'm on OSX here, using Fink as a tool to get good OSS ports.. Was just here cause there is usually a lot of knowledge going around.. so thanks for that, and yes, irssi is in the repo of fink ;)
[12:15] <Flannel> osmosis: not in feisty
[12:15] <Cuzz> If you installed 8600GT drivers and get the blue screen on start up, just run the followingcommands again. "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" "cd Desktop" "sudo sh NV (PRESS TAB TO GET THE REST)"
[12:15] <GBenemy> is there a way to just conitnue interupted downloads? because i'm sick of starting a 700meg file over an over again?
[12:15] <osmosis> Flannel: they took it out?
[12:15] <azzmodan> Yeah, no outgoing blocks in place though and the only incoming rules are for ssh and rdp, nothing related to port 80
[12:15] <Flannel> ByronFortescue: irssi is the favored terminal client of most people I think.  Also, the irssi webpage has some really good documentation on it.
[12:16] <ByronFortescue> Flannel: awesome, apt-getting irssi now, thanks for the help ;) i'll log back when I get it working..
[12:17] <Flannel> osmosis: they did.  PHP isn't even supporting it anymore.  If you want php4, dapper might be a good choice for you
[12:18] <ubuntu_> i have a problem after windows instalation grub boot disappear and when i try install it agaain i fail , also the partation that ubuntu install on seem to be damage anyone  can help me to repaire it ?
[12:18] <ferric84> I have 14gb left on my drive, and want to shrink it down to 10gb and install ubuntu.  Setup will only allow me to shrink it to 23gb.  is there a way to force it somehow?
[12:18] <Ch0Hag> Can I install Ubuntu in Ukrainian and have it fall back to Russian before English?
[12:19] <medfly> Ch0Hag, what do you mean, in language switching?
[12:19] <rhoruns> why the hell can't i open this?
[12:19] <rhoruns> sudo sh doom3-linux-<IP_ADDRESS>4.x86.run
[12:19] <Flannel> ferric84: You have 14GB of stuff on there?
[12:19] <ferric84> flannel: 14gb free
[12:19] <Eomer> hello, where can i find the md5 value for the.iso image of ubuntu... when i try to download it, i dont fine tit?
[12:19] <Flannel> ferric84: defrag in windows first
[12:20] <Ch0Hag> Well they'll log in with LANG=ua or whatever it is, and anything that doesn't have ua language files uses English instead.
[12:20] <Ch0Hag> Well it probably uses C, not en.
[12:20] <Ch0Hag> I want it to be ua -> ru -> en_GB -> C
[12:20] <Ch0Hag> But the login screen only lets you choose the main language.
[12:20] <jrib> Eomer: releases.ubuntu.com should have them on there
[12:21] <Flannel> ferric84: and, I don't think you'll be able to shrink it that small anyway, probably minimum of 5 or 10% of freespace.  (not that I have any hard facts to back that up)
[12:21] <jessemuller> Flannel: I'm back with irssi, looking good.. thanks for the tip mate..
[12:22] <jessemuller> i need to set my nick i see ^_^
[12:22] <Eomer> oh great, i found them
[12:22] <Eomer> thank you
[12:22] <Eomer> later!
[12:22] <bogdomania> i have installed ubuntu 2day..and i have gnome environment..how can i switch on kde?or install kde environment?im new on linux..
[12:23] <azzmodan> neverblue, it ended up being some weird vista issue that just happened to occur while I was busy reconfiguring my gateway's network interfaces
[12:23] <thedash> why can't I remove comments from items added to the [default]  top panel ?
[12:23] <neverblue> azzmodan, :/
[12:23] <lwizardl> !hfs+
[12:23] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[12:24] <azzmodan> Why the hell vista would suddenly block all outgoing traffic over port 80 I'll never know
[12:24] <dho_ragus> bogdomania: you can install KDE with synaptic or apt-get.  check the #kubuntu room for more help
[12:24] <lwizardl> !fuse
[12:24] <ubotu> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE.  Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here:  http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems
[12:24] <bogdomania> ok 10x dho_ragus
[12:25] <azzmodan> bogdomania, pretty sure you can just install the "kubuntu-desktop" meta package and get all the kde goodness
[12:25] <bogdomania> 10x azzmodan
[12:26] <azzmodan> 10x?
[12:26] <bogdomania> thanks
[12:26] <Flannel> bogdomania: you can
[12:27] <bogdomania> im wondering..is linux more flexible and secure that windows is?
[12:27] <ByronFortescue> bogdomania: yes
[12:27] <bogdomania> and what about viruses?
[12:27] <ByronFortescue> bogdomania: not really
[12:28] <nomic> anyone know how to get the processor ID in ubuntu uname -m just gives me 'i686'
[12:28] <Ray_at_UW> Hi everyone. :) I just installed ubuntu. I just figured out how sudo works and I'm chugging along. It's rather nice.
[12:28] <koshari> bogdomania viruses are largely a windows "feature"
[12:28] <ByronFortescue> hihi
[12:28] <bogdomania> koshari...are no viruses for linux then?
[12:28] <nomic> i need theprocessor make & model
[12:29] <Cryoniq> Question: Is there a way to boot another existing OS on another partition, in a window or layer - similiar to how one for example start/boot a VMware virtualisation in Ubuntu?
[12:29] <pike_> nomic: cat /proc/cpuid
[12:29] <Flannel> nomic: try lshw
[12:29] <nomic> ty pike
[12:29] <nomic> ty flannel
[12:29] <pike_> nomic: cat /proc/cpuinfo i mean sorry
[12:29] <merlinregis> ksh... houston we have a problem... roger... ;)
[12:29] <ByronFortescue> bogdomania: No.. proof of concept, probably, but real wide virusses.. nah
[12:29] <koshari> bogdomania there have been proof of concept viruses in linux but with the user not having root priveliges and no activeX there very low risk
[12:30] <ByronFortescue> bogdomania: Windows however, when was the last count, 141000+ ?
[12:30] <kazim59> Bliss was supposedly the first linux virus (google it)
[12:30] <bogdomania> aha..and the exploits attacs?like buffer overflow and stuff?
[12:30] <bogdomania> :)) ByronFortescue
[12:30] <bogdomania> a lot
[12:30] <Ray_at_UW> So I installed thunderbird <IP_ADDRESS> in the main filesystem because I can't find it in the repository... what happens when thunderbird tries to update?
[12:30] <Bucketface> Does anyone know how to get ePSXe or zsnes to actually work on Ubuntu
[12:30] <Bucketface> ????????
[12:30] <Flannel> Ray_at_UW: You should have installed it in /usr/local or /opt
[12:30] <Ray_at_UW> >.> Will I have to sudo and manually do the update?
[12:31] <rhoruns> can someone help me install Doom 3 on Ubuntu? i have all the paks, i just want to know how to use the script
[12:31] <Ray_at_UW> Ohhhh.
[12:31] <neverblue> Bucketface, did you read the README?
[12:31] <Ray_at_UW> Flannel: Thanks. I'll do that.
[12:31] <Bucketface> Dude
[12:31] <ziroday> Ray_at_UW: you will have to download another cpy and manually update thats why you shoud use the dpkg system
[12:31] <Bucketface> I know how it works
[12:31] <PriceChild> rhoruns, There's a pretty easy guide on the site you got it off... zerowing.idsoftware.com ?
[12:31] <merlinregis> hi gang... suddenly when restarting the computer I get an "error 2" on loading the grub... computer unusable besides w/ live cd :'(
[12:31] <Bucketface> neverblue, when I install it it just doesn't work!
[12:31] <Flannel> Ray_at_UW: /usr/ is reserved for package management, and you shouldn't mess with it (you run the risk of breaking p.m.)  use /usr/local for locally installed stuffs
[12:31] <neverblue> Bucketface, then whats the problem ?
[12:31] <rhoruns> ohhh, thanks PriceChild, ill check it out
[12:31] <Cryoniq> Every OS has it share of viruses, but Windows is the far superior OS vulnerable today, which in turn require a LOT of work for users and companies protecting themselves, not to mention the cost..
[12:31] <neverblue> Bucketface, I just installed and ran it
[12:31] <azzmodan> merlinregis, can you mount your drive in the livecd?
[12:31] <Flannel> Ray_at_UW: especially considering when you upgrade to gutsy, you'll get 2.0
[12:32] <koshari> bogdomania nearly any cmplex code can contain things like bufer overflows. however exploiting them to gain advantage and how long they are patched are the real concerns
[12:32] <merlinregis> Hmmm... sorry for my ignorance, but I'm not very familiar w/ console commands...
[12:32] <kazim59> Cryoniq: Linux got no share, though...
[12:32] <freezey> when i try to install xorg keeps failing any suggestions? i tried changing it to vesa and that doesnt work
[12:32] <albac> I have a weird problem with user in ldap.. I can search, but I can't modify or delete.. it says no such an object.. however  I can see it there
[12:32] <merlinregis> at least I know I can do so by going root in the terminal window
[12:32] <serengeti> Cryoniq: I don't think so, the drivers would be all messed up... but there's vmware converter that's supposed to convert your physical windows installation into a vmware image
[12:32] <azzmodan> linux would have plenty viruses if it where as popular as windows, since most of the trouble is dumb users
[12:32] <medfly> kazim59, it does, its just because its built in a less dumb way, you just dont get viruses from browsing around, unless something is horribly wrong
[12:33] <bogdomania> ok thanks alot guys! good night
[12:33] <albac> anyone good at ldap?
[12:33] <lwizardl> i have the hfsp files installed and i still can't get it to read my usb drive
[12:33] <freezey> azzmodan: well it does have rootkits
[12:33] <serengeti> Cryoniq: http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/
[12:33] <freezey> albac: depends what your trying to do
[12:33] <kazim59> medfly: nobody browses as root... so virus could not make much harm....
[12:33] <merlinregis> azzmodan, sorry but I'm not in agreement with you because windows is aimed at because of "bill's power trip"
[12:33] <medfly> yeah, being on windows is like being constantly root..
[12:33] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[12:33] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:34] <azzmodan> The only thing most users care about is "their files" and they have full access rights on their files
[12:34] <kazim59> azzmodan: the permission model of linux prevents viruses from infecting...
[12:34] <Cryoniq> Azzmodan, not true. The architecture of GNU/Linux and *nix on general is very different. Since GNU/Linux become very more popular over the years, there still are no working viruses at all in the void threatening.
[12:34] <ByronFortescue> medfly: yeah, but still, that's because it's default..
[12:34] <freezey> when i try to install xorg keeps failing any suggestions? i tried changing it to vesa and that doesnt work
[12:34] <ziroday> !virus
[12:34] <ubotu> A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[12:34] <albac> I said before.. I am trying to delete or modify a user, I can see it if I do ldapsearch , but it says no such an object if I tried to delete it or modify
[12:35] <freezey> you using all the correct parameters and spelling everything correctly?
[12:35] <medfly> im trying to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome and i got a problem. http://rafb.net/p/LWLBJ986.html

[12:37] <koshari> there are other factors such as most of the software installed on linux systems comes from trusted sources such as repositories,
[12:37] <Ray_at_UW> I installed thunderbird via the (add/remove programs)  but it seems I only have 1.5. How do I get up to the latest version?
[12:37] <koshari> there is less reason to download a rogue program from an untrusted source and install.

[12:38] <azzmodan> There's plenty of reason! Ubuntu doesn't have these cool cursors of animals being chased by cats
[12:38] <Squirrelbuntu> Hello
[12:38] <neverblue> Bucketface, not offerring a response ?
[12:38] <thedash> soothsayer :: try 'de'; gr is Greek :)
[12:38] <azzmodan> I only have to sudo dpkg --install spyware-cursors and I can have awesome new cursors!
[12:38] <soothsayer> thedash: Doesn't matter, I don't think he is German anyway :)
[12:38] <Cryoniq> koshari, but the main reason is that IF a virus should enter the system via a program, the system WILL jump on you if it tries to spread and modify other files.

[12:39] <Bucketface> neverblue, I had to do something! Anyway, I can install and run it, but it won't play the ROMs!
[12:39] <azzmodan> The virus can just put a small script in the users gnome startup thing
[12:39] <soothsayer> or norwegian
[12:39] <neverblue> Bucketface, where did you get the ROMS from ?
[12:39] <azzmodan> You don't need special rights to send spam
[12:39] <tinke> i have  2 windows on a laptop (c: and d:), i'm planning to install ubuntu over the one in d:, do i need to take anything special into account?

[12:39] <Bucketface> rombay.com
[12:39] <mario_> hello how can i put a matrix background
[12:39] <Bucketface> it's reliable
[12:39] <Cryoniq> Azzmodan, that is not a virus per definition
[12:39] <neverblue> Bucketface, previously you stated you werent able to run it ?
[12:39] <medfly> soothsayer, im pretty sure its german
[12:40] <neverblue> Bucketface, im confused, or your unclear
[12:40] <medfly> soothsayer, well, he only said good night :-)
[12:40] <merlinregisABS> I was wondering, since I have this grub problem... can I reinstall changing from ubuntu to "k" or "x" ubuntu without losing the rest?
[12:40] <koshari> Cryoniq true, but these days most windows exploits dont come from running code, browsing enough can do the trick
[12:40] <rafaelscj> hello
[12:40] <azzmodan> No it's more of a trojan or malware, but those fall under the common denominator
[12:41] <Xcerca> is envy the program the most people use to install nvidia card drivers ?
[12:41] <medfly> can anyone help me? im trying to get the openchrome drivers to work, following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome but i got some problem - http://rafb.net/p/LWLBJ986.html
[12:41] <koshari> Cryoniq , or in the case of blaster having an internet connection was simply enough
[12:41] <medfly> Xcerca, i thought they just apt-get install nvidia-glx or a similar package name
[12:41] <Cryoniq> koshari, aye.. and only fixing my relatives computers with XP each week or each 2 weeks drove me crazy.. since they fixed a Mac Laptop and I installed Ubuntu on their stationary I never heard from them since 1 year back.. :P
[12:41] <Bucketface> neverblue, perhaps a bad choice of words on my part, either way, I can open the software, just not use it.
[12:41] <medfly> Xcerca, and i think it even comes with ubuntu..
[12:42] <neverblue> Bucketface, but it runs, you just cannot start the ROM ?
[12:42] <Cryoniq> I shall not even begin to mention how it was working as a Windows NT consultant and with customers..
[12:42] <freezey> how about a SD card reading plugin? does ubuntu have that?
[12:42] <Bucketface> neverblue, exactly.
[12:42] <Xcerca> i've tried a couple of things,  i'm going to see what the forums say
[12:42] <neverblue> Bucketface, dling mario cart now :)
[12:42] <koshari> xcera the envy program is really only neccesaryt if the binaries in the repos are not latest enough for your hardware
[12:42] <Amadeo> ACPI isn't working on my laptop, getting an ACPI [package]  has zero elements error message on boot
[12:43] <Bucketface> kthx, neverblue
[12:43] <Cryoniq> Anyway, lets not have this discussion in the support channel. Have to excuse myself for feeding it. :)

Now atm I am chatting via the live CD and it had the option to change screen resolution and I believe that is my issue. How do I make my screen resolution/refresh rate lower via the console?
[12:44] <albac> yeah I am using everything correct.. not the first time I used ldap commands
[12:44] <neverblue> Paddy_EIRE_, talk to them on /server irc.mozilla.org in #firefox
[12:44] <albac> but this is weird
[12:44] <Paddy_EIRE_> neverblue, thx man
[12:45] <neverblue> np :)
[12:45] <albac> message says no such an object err 32
[12:45] <abyss> lo, ubuntu fiesty fawn looks a kind of slow in some cases. anyone has the same things?
[12:45] <albac> however I am able to see it trough ldapsearch
[12:45] <merlinregis> abyss, how much RAM do you have?
[12:45] <abyss> PC-Specs: AMD Turion X2 TL50 - 1GB-DDR-2
[12:46] <neverblue> haha
[12:46] <neverblue> works Bucketface
[12:46] <neverblue> maybe you have a bad rom ?
[12:46] <azzmodan> I have a p4 2.4 with 512mb rdram and I've not noticed any slowness
[12:46] <Cryoniq> abyss, what is your hardware setup like and what setup are you running?
[12:46] <Bucketface> Send me your mario kart rom mebbe?
[12:46] <azzmodan> "some cases" is also kinda vague
[12:46] <pike_> abyss: first thing i always do is check hd settings with hdparm. also you can grab 'bum' to trim running processes you dont need
[12:46] <Bucketface> Also, wha way did you download it neverblue?
[12:46] <rhoruns> hey, what's the command to extract files from and ISO into a folder??
[12:46] <rhoruns> an ISO**
[12:46] <Bucketface> ISO things aren't extractable
[12:47] <merlinregis> and I wouldn't see why abyss  should see any either... any programs that load at startup?
[12:47] <neverblue> Bucketface, the usual
[12:47] <rhoruns> lol
[12:47] <rhoruns> then how do i mount an ISO?
[12:47] <abyss> hdparm:  Timing buffered disk reads:  134 MB in  3.01 seconds =  44.45 MB/sec
[12:47] <Cryoniq> Rhoruns, you can mount the ISO and then copy..
[12:47] <Bucketface> sudo apt-get install zsnes?
[12:47] <astro76> !iso | rhoruns
[12:47] <ubotu> rhoruns: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[12:47] <neverblue> Bucketface, there wasnt an ISO, and shouldnt be
[12:47] <nickrud> rhoruns, sudo mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt
[12:47] <nickrud> oops, missed the loop :)
[12:47] <neverblue> Bucketface, are you looking for just one specific game?
[12:47] <Bucketface> I know I was talking to the other guy neverblue
[12:47] <colourAgga> someone know how to resize my ext3/swap partitions?
[12:47] <rhoruns> oh, thanks nickrud :D
[12:47] <Bucketface> I'm looking for FFIV
[12:47] <pike_> colourAgga: use gparted livecd or ubuntu live
[12:48] <colourAgga> pike_: i can do it from ubuntu live cd?
[12:48] <abyss> are 44.45 MB / sec ok for SATA?
[12:48] <Cryoniq> colourAgga, gparted you can install from synaptic repositories
[12:48] <neverblue> and its a .smc file ?
[12:48] <pike_> colourAgga: yeah just install gparted in livecd and you can. thing is you need it to run without partitions being mounted thats why livecd
[12:48] <neverblue> Bucketface, is it an .smc file ?
[12:49] <colourAgga> ahhh oke
[12:49] <colourAgga> i'll do that tomorrow then
[12:49] <Bucketface> neverblue, yes, I am familiar with SNES emulation on Windows...
[12:49] <neverblue> Bucketface, thats not what I asked
[12:49] <colourAgga> i ain't gonna fcuk up my nice install with all my stuff with a fresh install :)
[12:49] <neverblue> Bucketface, is it an .smc file ?
[12:49] <colourAgga> anyhow
[12:49] <Bucketface> I said YES
[12:49] <Bucketface> :D
[12:49] <colourAgga> it seams GPixPod is a bit outdated?
[12:49] <Cryoniq> colourAgga, and don't forget to backup things you care about before you do that as well ;)
[12:49] <Bucketface> I'll try again
[12:50] <colourAgga> yea most of it is on usb storage or online storage as well :)
[12:50] <Cryoniq> colourAgga,  =)
[12:50] <neverblue> Bucketface, loads just fine here
[12:50] <colourAgga> so anyone else got beryl running?
[12:50] <merlinregis> so... can I reinstall kubuntu over ubuntu without losing my stuff?
[12:50] <neverblue> colourAgga, ofcourse
[12:50] <Bucketface> I'll reinstall get a different rom. ;d Thanks for the help though neverblue.
[12:50] <Flannel> merlinregis: you don't reinstall, you just install the kubuntu-desktop metapackage
[12:50] <colourAgga> it's very very nice i must sai
[12:50] <Cryoniq> colourAgga, I am running Beryl with a ATI9800 pro :)
[12:50] <colourAgga> say
[12:50] <colourAgga> me with 9200
[12:50] <neverblue> Bucketface, what errors are you getting ?
[12:51] <Flannel> merlinregis: ubuntu and kubuntu (and xubuntu, and edubuntu) are all the same distribution.
[12:51] <merlinregis> Flannel, since I have a grub problem, I thought I'd do 2 things in one... get back my startup options and switch from ubuntu to "k"
[12:51] <colourAgga> i have some last hurdles to take before i can finally use ubuntu for real like my ipod
[12:51] <Bucketface> neverblue, no errors when I start up, though the usual snowy animation isn't there
[12:51] <Flannel> merlinregis: do you have your home on a diferent partition?
[12:51] <abyss> i think i found out the problem but no solution atm. The CPU-Speed is on 800Mhz on both Cores. I think there is more possible
[12:52] <Cryoniq> colourAgga, but it was a pain to get it working with the DRI on this card.. he he.. punishment for using ATI :D
[12:52] <juest> hi
[12:52] <merlinregis> Flannel, individual drive
[12:52] <neverblue> when you start zsnes you see the menu to load the game... then you select the ROM then do what ?
[12:52] <colourAgga> well i have ATI to and the install was like 15 minutes of work :)
[12:52] <merlinregis> Flannel, 3 or 5 partitions?... 1, 3, 5, if I remember well
[12:53] <Cryoniq> colourAgga, I envy you :P Mine took well over 1-2 weeks and lots of reading user howtos and forums and asking questions here ^^
[12:53] <Bucketface> I'm redownloading the rom neverblue. I deleted them in frustration :D one sec plz
[12:53] <Flannel> merlinregis: home is on a separate partition?  great.  Then yeah, you can reinstall around it.  Just, in the installer, mark it to be used as /home, but make sure it's not marked to format.
[12:53] <Cryoniq> Then again, now things have cleared out and updates of beryl happened since then as well :)
[12:53] <neverblue> i just realized I had VI, not IV
[12:53] <Paddy_EIRE> neverblue, thank jeebus for firefox -safe-mode
[12:53] <neverblue> dling IV
[12:53] <rhoruns> is this command correct? sudo mount -t loop "Disc 1" /dev/cdrom /mnt
[12:53] <neverblue> :) @ Paddy_EIRE
[12:53] <merlinregis> great... thanks Flannel  :) gonna try that out... should fix my grub at the same time?
[12:53] <colourAgga> Cryoniq: yea well it's worth the wile :)
[12:54] <karlmausi> High people
[12:54] <Paddy_EIRE> neverblue, nad the fact that I used febe recently
[12:54] <Cryoniq> But it wouldn't hurt if ATI did some work on their drivers for linux as well... *hint hint*
[12:54] <wctraxler> william
[12:54] <Flannel> merlinregis: yep.  It'll reinstall everything (except your home)
[12:54] <pike_> rhoruns: the iso file is called Disk\ 1?
[12:54] <neverblue> hehe
[12:54] <neverblue> Bucketface, which release are you grabbing ?
[12:54] <rhoruns> it's called:   Disc 1.iso
[12:54] <merlinregis> Flannel, thanks again  :)
[12:54] <wctraxler> hey any body running supertux 0.3.0 and nobody in supertux window
[12:54] <Bucketface> US
[12:54] <pike_> rhoruns: sudo mount -o loop Disk\ 1.iso /media/cdrom
[12:55] <colourAgga> http://liebmi.ch/buntuscreen.jpg < my current desktop
[12:55] <colourAgga> :)
[12:55] <rhoruns> oh, ok. ill try that pike_ :)
[12:55] <neverblue> Bucketface, US?
[12:55] <Cryoniq> Hope Compiz Fusion etc pops out soon.. maybe in next ubuntu update? :P
[12:55] <rafaelscj> !flash
[12:55] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[12:55] <neverblue> Bucketface, can you possibly copy/paste the entire name ?
[12:55] <Flannel> Cryoniq: it's in gutsy, it won't be in feisty (officially, there are 3rd party repos)
[12:55] <neverblue> as there are more than a dozen FF IVs on the site
[12:55] <Cryoniq> Flannel, yay :)
[12:56] <Bucketface> It's FFIV in english, that's it. Neverblue
[12:56] <Cryoniq> Every update/upgrade of Ubuntu is like christmas for me :P
[12:56] <neverblue> Bucketface, is this on rombay?
[12:56] <colourAgga> Cryoniq: dit you catch the screen of my desktop?
[12:56] <rafaelscj> !gnash
[12:57] <ubotu> An open source flash replacement.  It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/
[12:57] <rhoruns> what the hell?!?1 why can't i copy files in to this folder? it says i'm not the owner/i dont have permissions
[12:57] <rafaelscj> !swf-player
[12:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swf-player - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:57] <Bucketface> Yes, on Rombay, the first screen with most popular roms has it at the bottom, it's actually FFII here
[12:57] <neverblue> Bucketface, looks like I can help you no further
[12:57] <Cryoniq> colourAgga, aye :) Looks nice in a green way :)
[12:57] <Bucketface> I have downloaded it
[12:57] <neverblue> FFII is not FFIV, fyi
[12:57] <colourAgga> yea very easy on the eyes
[12:57] <ShinSR-71> !offtopic
[12:57] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:57] <rafaelscj> !find swf-player
[12:57] <Bucketface> Isn't it?
[12:58] <Bucketface> Oh well
[12:58] <ubotu> Found: swf-player
[12:58] <colourAgga> but non the less, i got my ipod working it just seems GPixPod ain't working on this new nano :(
[12:58] <neverblue> what a waste of time...
[12:58] <Cryoniq> =)
[12:58] <Bucketface> But as I said, when I start zsnes up, there is no snow effect when 'paused'.
[12:58] <colourAgga> anyone have any suggestions?
[12:58] <ubuntu_>  ubotu  the partation that ubuntu was inatalled after windows instalation its type now is W95 Ext'd (LBA) and linux can't  mount it
[12:58] <neverblue> im sure there isnt
[12:58] <rafaelscj> !swfdec
[12:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swfdec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:58] <Bucketface> Well why not?
[12:58] <neverblue> but that has nothing to do with it working/not working properly
[12:58] <neverblue> its working, time to move on
[12:58] <rhoruns> what's the command for copying files from one folder to another?
[12:58] <Cryoniq> colourAgga, probably wont be long before it does however I suspect :)
[12:58] <colourAgga> rhoruns: mv
[12:58] <rhoruns> kk, thanks
[12:58] <kitche> rhoruns, cp to copy mv is to move
[12:59] <colourAgga> well Cryoniq, the last post on the GTPixPod blog is from a few months ago
[12:59] <colourAgga> so my hopes are deminishing :p
[12:59] <Cre0n> i need help when i boot up it says /hda1 not found dropping to shell and then it drops me to busy box
[12:59] <Cre0n> how do i get my computer to boot
[12:59] <Cre0n> im on the live cd right now
[01:00] <Cryoniq> Cre0n, how did that happen?
[01:00] <Cre0n> im not sure
[01:01] <Cre0n> it just says segmentation fault all down the screen and drops me to busybox shell
[01:01] <Bo1> i want to know how to setup sudo dpkg-reconfigure?
[01:01] <Cre0n> i tried upgrading
[01:01] <Bo1> for nvidia
[01:01] <Cre0n> that was the last thing i did
[01:01] <pike_> Bo1: hey
[01:01] <miketalanca> I have quite a large problem. I was moving some things between two hard drives and Konqueror stopped responding (I use Kubuntu). So, I went for the GUI restart, but after the screen went black, nothing happened. So I restarted the machine, and now i get no login.
[01:01] <colourAgga> o yeah, a little question, where do i configure on which device the volume buttons on my keyboard work on?
[01:01] <Cre0n> is there a way i can mount my harddrive from the live cd
[01:01] <Bo1> pike_:hey
[01:01] <colourAgga> Cre0n: mount /dev/hda1
[01:01] <colourAgga> ?
[01:02] <pike_> Bo1: sudo dpkg-reconfigure packagename   in this case i think you mean package xserver-xorg.
[01:02] <Cryoniq> Cre0n, hmm.. hardware upgrade?
[01:02] <sherleon> how do i change my computer name?
[01:02] <imbecile> can someone plleeaassee tell me a good default size for terminal? I'm making a transparent shell on my desktop and need to know the right size to set  for width and height
[01:02] <medfly> uhm, im trying to use a floppy disk for some purpose, and i think theres something wrong with the floppy disk reader thing, should i see anything on dmesg if it works properly?
[01:02] <sherleon> like from chris-desktop to chris-desktop2
[01:03] <pike_> sherleon: be sure to a line in /etc/hosts first.
[01:03] <Bo1> pike_:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35478/plain/
[01:03] <Cre0n> Cryoniq, mount: can't find /dev/hda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[01:04] <kraypius> If i take the files from the ubuntu install ISO and copy them to my thumb drive is there anything special i need to do to boot into the installer?
[01:04] <pike_> sherleon: like gksu gedit /etc/hosts and the line should be <IP_ADDRESS>  computername.  after that you can sudo hostname computername
[01:04] <imbecile> what i'm trying to do is actually pretty cool heres the link for it.. http://ubuntu-unleashed.blogspot.com/2007/08/howto-completely-transparent-shell-on.html  I need advice on what size to set terminal
[01:04] <sherleon> rebooting
[01:04] <Cre0n> i cant reinstall
[01:04] <Cre0n> i have my entire music collection on here
[01:05] <medfly> if my floppy disk reader is working well, and i insert a floppy disk, do i get anything on dmesg?
[01:05] <wctraxler> how to do editor in supertux 0.3.0?
[01:05] <wctraxler>  or do i need too install it
[01:05] <wctraxler>  if so how
[01:05] <wctraxler>  running ubuntu 7.0.4
[01:05] <wctraxler>  any body here
[01:05] <Pelo> hey guys, what't the package that gets used when you select the restricted driver for nvidia legacy ?
[01:05] <Cryoniq> Cre0n, what sort of upgrade did you do? Was it software or hardware upgrade?
[01:05] <Pelo> wctraxler, please don't use the enter key for punctuation
[01:06] <wctraxler> sory
[01:06] <Bucketface> neverblue, I'm afraid I needed to extract the file first, I thought it was just a regular folder ;~;
[01:06] <wctraxler> nobody answering in supertux
[01:06] <pike_> Bo1: the sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  will work. basically you just choose your driver to use. you have nvidia so youd use vesa or nv driver or nvidia if its installed correctly and then just default or enter for everything else. after that you can restart X with 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart' command to test
[01:06] <Pelo> wctraxler, check in synaptic if supertux is available from the repos
[01:06] <neverblue> Bucketface, extract which file ?
[01:06] <Pelo> wctraxler,  supertux 0.3.0 is available
[01:07] <naji> wctraxler: which package are you searching, the game or the editor ?
[01:07] <neverblue> !patience | wctraxler
[01:07] <ubotu> wctraxler: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[01:07] <pike_> Bo1: also you can just edit the file like: 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' if you scroll to near the bottom youll see a Driver  nvidia or whatever. you  can change that to nv or vesa to at least get 2d stuff back
[01:07] <Bo1> pike_:again let me go try be back if every goess good
[01:07] <wctraxler> got the supertux 0.30 just wanted too know if any body know how to runn the edtorin it
[01:07] <Bucketface> neverblue, the rom...
[01:07] <Pelo> wctraxler,  do you have the editor ?
[01:07] <neverblue> Bucketface, which is the reason I asked what the extension was....
[01:07] <Bucketface> Anyway, that's all dandy and such, will you help me set up ePSXe now please?
[01:08] <deCon> ARGGGGGGGGGGGGG, ALSA will not work properly, and has yet to be fixed in about 8 months
[01:08] <neverblue> Bucketface, you are really difficult to help :)
[01:08] <deCon> can anyone help me troubleshoot please?>
[01:08] <wctraxler> don't know were do you get it and how too install it i am running ubuntu 7.04
[01:08] <neverblue> deCon, what is the device ?
[01:08] <Bucketface> Yes, I know neverblue, I could see the smc file just I thought it was in a regular folder ;~;
[01:08] <wctraxler> i downloaded pakage but don't show edtorinit
[01:09] <wctraxler> pelo unknow
[01:09] <deCon> neverblue, for some reason, it just won't share audio amongst anything, and nothing seems to work without an error for ALSA showing up in term
[01:09] <wctraxler> if i do
[01:09] <Pelo> Bucketface,  you need to get epsxe from their site , and follow at tthe bottom of the page to get the packages to run your cdrom and video and audio, it's fairly easy
[01:09] <pike_> Bo1: or just gimme ssh access and ill fix. the price isnt too high and your computer can become part of a very special network ;p
[01:09] <SunWuKung> ACTION gives pike_
[01:09] <neverblue> deCon, ill ask again, what is the device ?
[01:09] <Bucketface> Indeed it should be!
[01:09] <sherleon> it still says the same thing
[01:09] <rafaelscj> what's the better : gnash or swf-player?
[01:09] <neuro_>   <Ebola> dwu: No idea and he's scary enough the fucking furry :P
[01:09] <pike_> suupaabaka: what'd i get?
[01:09] <neuro_> goddamn it
[01:09] <deCon> neverblue, device?
[01:09] <neuro_> stupid paste
[01:09] <Pelo> wctraxler, I suggest you look for a supertux website, see if an editor is available,   get a .deb file if you can , if not jsut get the source and compile it
[01:09] <deCon> neverblue, like software?
[01:09] <wctraxler> is it sprate from the game?
[01:09] <imbecile> hey pelo, you have helped me out on numerous occasions so this should be no problem for you.. im setting up a completely transparent shell on my desktop (actually pretty cool heres the link http://ubuntu-unleashed.blogspot.com/2007/08/howto-completely-transparent-shell-on.html ) anyways im trying to figure out a good size to set terminal to for a 17 inch lappy i want it pretty much default size
[01:09] <PriceChild> naughty neuro_ :)
[01:10] <neuro_> wctraxler: you keep saying william, why?
[01:10] <neverblue> deCon, no, not 'like software'
[01:10] <imbecile> oops sorry guys
[01:10] <naji> wctraxler: normally the editor is available with supertux-editor or something like that
[01:10] <wctraxler> o no idea
[01:10] <Cryoniq> Cre0n, but it sounds like /dev/hda1 is missing from fstab. That shouldn't happen in a upgrade of Ubuntu. But that doesn't help saying. But.. if /dev/hda1 is unavailable on a hardware layer then fstab of course can't be found
[01:10] <neverblue> deCon, what hardware device are you using for your audio
[01:10] <wctraxler> o ask me for nick name so i put it in
[01:10] <adz_> ummm...I am not sure whether this is the right place to ask, but is it ok to superglue a 120mm fan to a case?
[01:10] <deCon> neverblue, realtekALC850
[01:10] <neverblue> deCon, onboard?
[01:10] <adz_> or tape
[01:10] <deCon> neverblue, yes
[01:10] <wctraxler> i am running 0.30
[01:10] <neuro_> wctraxler: i don't know what you mean, but it's my name and every time you say it, it highlights this channel for no reason :P
[01:11] <neverblue> deCon, what application are you using to 'test' your sound ?
[01:11] <Pelo> imbecile,  I have no clue,  try a size if you don't like it , try another one
[01:11] <wctraxler> sorry
[01:11] <imbecile> PriceChild:  you seen the transparent shell thing on digg  a few hours ago? i think you'd like it
[01:11] <pike_> adz_: yeah. just keep a mind for airflow. i mean it wont really hurt anything
[01:11] <neverblue> deCon, have you looked at alsamixer  ?
[01:11] <adz_> pike: so what would be the best place to put it?
[01:11] <deCon> neverblue, yes i believe...here is the full problem...
[01:12] <pike_> adz_: depends on the case.  youre goint to cut a hole?
[01:12] <adz_> I am getting a case with this "air duct" at the side. Should I glue it there
[01:12] <deCon> neverblue, when i open anything that utilizes audio it will work generally, (for an emulated ventrilo program, the mic sounds AWFUL ...but still works)...
[01:12] <winblows> is there something to mount and unmount a nfs share when the host available and unavailable?
[01:12] <pike_> adz_: just get a couple self tapping screws or something
[01:12] <adz_> self tapping?
[01:12] <naji> wctraxler: anyway, the built-in editor of SuperTux hasn't many options, you can try Flexlay if you want - http://flexlay.berlios.de/
[01:12] <deCon> neverblue, but amarok/firefox/mplayer etc.. when i choose to use one, they will work as long as it is the first program to access audio after a restart
[01:13] <winblows> adz_: self tapping? sounds like masturbation
[01:13] <neverblue> deCon, sorry, cannot help you, good luck
[01:13] <deCon> neverblue, after that, they will not share/switch/ or work even if i close the first program that used it
[01:13] <pike_> adz_: they cut through and thread the hole as you screw em in so you dont have to drill and tap a hole. this is very offtopic though :)
[01:13] <adz_> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-tapping <those?
[01:13] <karl_> faq
[01:13] <deCon> anyone have an amazing knowledge of sound? I have had the same problem w/ audio sharing for a veryyyyy long time
[01:14] <pike_> adz_: yeah theyre common and cheap any harware store
[01:14] <adz_> pike: would tape work? (so I won't damage the case too much)
[01:14] <pike_> adz_: i guess.
[01:15] <adz_> ok. thanks :)
[01:15] <pike_> adz_: youll never learn to fix stuff if youre afraid to break it :)
[01:15] <Cryoniq> trial and error ftw.. :)
[01:15] <dredhammer> hello i am using ubuntu feisty and dma on harddrive keeps switching itself off even though its enabled in the hardparm.conf
[01:15] <deCon> ALSA issues won't stop. Can someone help me troubleshoot? I can pastebin the different problems

[01:19] <hustlebird> what is the easiest way to get java runtime env. in firefox
[01:20] <teamwork> hustlebird, sudo aptitude install j2re1.4-mozilla-plugin
[01:20] <hustlebird> thank you
[01:20] <goundy> guys little problem
[01:20] <teamwork> hustlebird, you could look into the mozilla-plugin-gnash package as well.
[01:20] <goundy> when running beryl-manager I get: Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:21] <goundy> What is this exactly and how to get beryl running :/
[01:21] <kitche> goundy, enable dri in your xorg.conf put load "dri" in the load module section and restart X
[01:22] <CoasterMaster> !beryl | goundy
[01:22] <ubotu> goundy: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:22] <hustlebird> what does that package do?
[01:22] <kitche> CoasterMaster, well it's more of a xorg issue then a beryl issue
[01:22] <LadyNikon> hustlebird: beryl? shiney desktop processor waister :p
[01:22] <CoasterMaster> are you using xgl?
[01:22] <teamwork> a DRI section may help as well.  Section "DRI" / Mode    0666 / EndSection
[01:23] <goundy> dri is already loaded

[01:24] <arle> hello
[01:24] <TheManiacKY> What should I try?
[01:24] <arle> I've been working with 7.04 since may
[01:24] <hustlebird> it couldn't find that plug in package
[01:24] <arle> something weird happened to my gnome conf. files today :(
[01:24] <arle> I am running as another user
[01:24] <deCon> ALSA help PLZZ
[01:24] <arle> and writing from gnome Xchat
[01:24] <arle> everything's ok
[01:25] <randoman> hey guys, whats the best way to room mysql from booting at startup?
[01:25] <arle> but everytime I restore my targzip'ed original user gnome conf files..
[01:25] <arle> ...gnome won't login
[01:25] <arle> sorry... gnome
[01:25] <arle> won't start properly
[01:26] <arle> randoman: aptitude install rcconf
[01:26] <squee> One of my friends has a file he can't access as root, what could be causing this?  (It is the output of snort)
[01:26] <arle> randoman: Do you want to stop MySQL from starting at boot, don't you?
[01:26] <randoman> ok
[01:26] <randoman> yes
[01:26] <randoman> i removed it form rc.2
[01:26] <hustlebird> sorry thought the 1 was an l
[01:26] <randoman> but it didnt seem to work
[01:26] <hustlebird> working now
[01:26] <arle> randoman: I am sorry don't know the proper way...
[01:27] <arle> randoman: rcconf will help you
[01:27] <randoman> ok
[01:27] <arle> randoman: it's ncurses-based... run it with sudo in a term
[01:27] <randoman> yeah i see that
[01:27] <randoman> i tshows that mysql is disabled
[01:27] <arle> randoman: and tell us if worked
[01:27] <dredhammer> hello i am using ubuntu feisty and dma on my hard drive keeps switching itself off even though its enabled in the hardparm.conf on boot is there anyway to keep dma on?
[01:27] <arle> randoman: enable it again
[01:27] <arle> randoman: and try booting again
[01:28] <arle> randoman: then disable it and boot :P
[01:28] <randoman> wont enabling it make it booto
[01:28] <randoman> :P
[01:28] <arle> randoman: if still not working come back here :-)
[01:28] <randoman> oh lol
[01:28] <randoman> i want to know the correct way though
[01:28] <randoman> this is nice
[01:29] <nickrud> randoman, rcconf does it the right way, it manipulates the links in rc*.d
[01:29] <Abraxas_> I got a fairly ugly issue and I don't know square 1 to resolving it...I tried to run a game while I was dissecting the source to learn ocaml, and now my resolution is inexplicably locked at 640x480...rebooting doesn't help
[01:29] <arle> randoman: maybe you can find a how-to in The Linux Documentation Project site
[01:29] <randoman> ok forsure
[01:29] <Abraxas_> anyone able to aid me with this?
[01:29] <arle> randoman: but rcconf should be enough ;-)
[01:29] <randoman> but if I didnt use rcconf, wouldnt i change Smysqld to Kmsyqld
[01:29] <arle> so... how to re-generate my gnome?
[01:29] <randoman> ?
[01:29] <randoman> something like that
[01:30] <Administrator> hi i need help
[01:30] <nickrud> randoman, if you really wanna look at the "right" way, man update-rc.d :)
[01:30] <Abraxas_> the game (freetennis) locked my system while it was exiting, which may be part of the issue
[01:30] <arle> randoman: I honestly don't know :(
[01:30] <randoman> for sure
[01:30] <Stoffer> can I run WoW in wine?
[01:30] <randoman> yeah I like to learn the shit the hardway, then use the easy way :P
[01:30] <medfly> Stoffer, ive seen it work on cedega
[01:30] <deCon> stoffer, yes
[01:31] <deCon> stoffer, i am playing it right now
[01:31] <Abraxas_> please someone get me to square 1 on this at least...I can barely read 10 lines in this chatroom because of the issues
[01:31] <deCon> stoffer, you can just copy the whole folder to your linux partition, and it will work great
[01:31] <CoasterMaster> stoffer: here is some info about WoW on Wine
[01:31] <CoasterMaster> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=1922
[01:31] <freezey> ok so i am trying to Load an SD card and its not working any suggestions?
[01:31] <arle> randoman: so, do what nickrud said :)
[01:31] <Stoffer> wow, such an enthusiastic response.  Thanks.  I didn't think wine could handle it.  Actually, I'm probably still held back by my system specs...
[01:32] <randoman> yep yep :)
[01:32] <randoman> thanks for the help
[01:32] <randoman> very helpful guys
[01:32] <Administrator> i just finished installing ubuntu from the Alternative CD and when it finished downloaded it reboots and like sort of crashed the entire screen turn in that kind of screen when it has alot of colors all over the place and stuff and then i rebooted again and the ubuntu loading screen came up and after the status bar was finished the screen turned blank
[01:32] <rdvon> net
[01:32] <Administrator> like just all black and it wouldnt start up

[01:33] <nickrud> Administrator, does alt-F1 get you a text screen?
[01:33] <juarez> Hi everybody...does anybody know what means "prisoner.iana.org'?
[01:33] <arle> randoman: c00l
[01:33] <juarez> it seems like my pc is conected to this address
[01:33] <arle> Administrator: you might try to boot in safe mode
[01:33] <Administrator> i didnt try that...
[01:34] <Administrator> how do i boot ubuntu in safe mode?
[01:34] <Abraxas_> hmm...odd, an apparent change in my xorg.conf...restarting X to try
[01:34] <Administrator> and whats the text thing?
[01:34] <arle> Administrator: use your consoles Alt+F{123456}
[01:34] <Administrator> umm but at the load screen it doesnt say that
[01:34] <nickrud> Administrator, it's a text console that runs beside X, you can do just about any troubleshooting there (if they're running)
[01:34] <ionstorm> http://digg.com/linux_unix/Drastically_Improve_Ubuntu_Feisty_7_04_with_the_performance_patchset <-- will this work?
[01:34] <Administrator> i already downloaded it...
[01:34] <albac> Administrator, before it boots hit escape and it will prompt you on the grub menu
[01:35] <Administrator> yea on the ggrub menu it says boot what and i did try safe mode it was just the same
[01:35] <nickrud> juarez, iana is the domain name registration superbody ...
[01:36] <Administrator> ubuntu reg then ubuntu (safemode) then your other OS's windows vista
[01:36] <halcyonCorsair> hi, can anyone tell me how limits are dealt with in ubuntu/debian? (ie. limits.conf?)
[01:36] <cosmodad> I'm trying to connect to my Ubuntu server using a VNC client, but windows started remotely don't come with window decoration which prevents me from moving windows. Any idea?
[01:36] <arle> Administrator: after booting in anyway... try to access your console
[01:36] <arle> Pressing Alt plus the F1 key, ie
[01:37] <juarez> nickrud: what does that mean?
[01:37] <Administrator> hi
[01:37] <nickrud> juarez, try going to iana.org, it'll explain better than I can
[01:37] <juarez> nickrud: I did but there's no website
[01:38] <Administrator> ok so when i do get the console
[01:38] <Administrator> what do i do?
[01:38] <arle> Administrator: maybe you can modify your /boo/grub/menu.lst file
[01:38] <arle> but you'll have to read before touching that file!
[01:38] <arle> be careful!
[01:38] <juarez> nickrud: ops.. sorry.. actually I just found it.. thanks mate....
[01:38] <Administrator> lolz
[01:38] <Administrator> well what do i do with it?
[01:39] <Ray_at_UW> I'm having a little trouble. I can't do anything with my FAT32 drive that I share with my windows. I get a ton of permission denies. How am I supposed to save openoffice documents there if I don't have permission?
[01:39] <Ray_at_UW> More concisely, I can't sudo an openoffice gui command?
[01:39] <nickrud> Administrator, if you can get to the console, run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ; getting to the console means that X is fubar'd, and that will try to reconfig it
[01:40] <Administrator> ok ill try
[01:40] <Administrator> ill brb
[01:40] <eugman> What's the directory containing the kernel source code?
[01:40] <strav> hi, I recently tried to install the nvidia proprietary drivers to get the best graphics acceleration for blender. Now if I try to start X I get an api mismatch error telling the driver version do not correspond to the kernel module. Anyone can help?
[01:41] <bullet> can anyone please explain what do the mean here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35482/ ?
[01:41] <deCon> can anyone please help me figure out my ALSA problems....they won't stop. No sound sharing ...
[01:42] <nickrud> Ray_at_UW, how are you mounting your fat32?
[01:42] <CoasterMaster> bullet: that tells your computer to insall several packages
[01:42] <strav> (note, my config is so messed up I cannot manage to get the free drivers back)
[01:42] <CoasterMaster> *install
[01:42] <arle> Administrator: try changing the vga values
[01:42] <arle> Administrator: to vga=normal
[01:42] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: I mounted it when I did the install in a folder called /windows
[01:43] <arle> Administrator: or vga=ask
[01:43] <CoasterMaster> satanic-wallpapers, satanic-gdm-themes and usplash-theme-satanic
[01:43] <bullet> CoasterMaster but how to i do the command?
[01:43] <nickrud> Ray_at_UW, could you put the contents of /etc/fstab on a pastebin somewhere?
[01:43] <CoasterMaster> open up a terminal, then copy and paste that in a terminal
[01:43] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: I'm kind of new to this, how would I do that?
[01:43] <RAHSPUTIN> hello, how can i adjust the lamp warmup time when useing  scanimage ?
[01:44] <CoasterMaster> bullet: note that paste in the terminal program is CTRL+SHIFT+V
[01:44] <nickrud> Ray, go to paste.ubuntu-nl.com, which will be the place you copy text into. Then, gedit /etc/fstab , and cut and paste
[01:44] <RAHSPUTIN> man scanimage does tell me a thing, where else could i look ?
[01:44] <strav> any nvidia master in there?
[01:44] <bullet> CoasterMaster, go it, 10x
[01:44] <ferric84> I created a 10gb partition with partition magic in windows to install ubuntu onto, but the ubuntu installation doesn't even recognize the partition.. what can I do?
[01:44] <CoasterMaster> no problem
[01:44] <CoasterMaster> ferric84: are you in the LiveCD?
[01:44] <nickrud> CoasterMaster, don't you just hightlight with the mouse and middle mouse click :)
[01:45] <ferric84> coastermaster: yes
[01:45] <CoasterMaster> ferric: System -> Administration -> GNOME Partition Editor
[01:45] <CoasterMaster> ferric: does it find your partition there
[01:45] <steel_lady> need help for temporarly moving a folder with a software package
[01:45] <eugman> What directory has the kernel source files?
[01:45] <CoasterMaster> nickrud: I'm a keyboard man myself ;)
[01:45] <Flannel> ferric84: You create the partition in the installer, just delete it, leave it as unallocated free space
[01:45] <ferric84> i'll have to restart to find out
[01:46] <emeriste> Why on earth would MathML depend on fonts from Mathematica?
[01:46] <emeriste> That makes zero sense.
[01:46] <nickrud> CoasterMaster, depends, but I love showing that quicky paste to new people
[01:46] <ferric84> coastermaster: if i resize a drive in partition editor, will that likely corrupt my windows install?
[01:46] <steel_lady> emeriste. MANY THINGS ON LINUX MAKE ZERO SENSE
[01:46] <Flannel> emeriste: it doesn't
[01:46] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35483/
[01:47] <PriceChild> steel_lady, I'd say it everything makes sense... some decisions may just not be sensible.
[01:47] <scalawag420> Does anyone know a thing or two about Beryl?
[01:47] <CoasterMaster> ferric84: I've had good luck, but I don't guarentee anything :)
[01:47] <emeriste> Flannel - Look at this http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/fonts/
[01:47] <PriceChild> scalawag420, ask in #ubuntu-effects or #beryl
[01:47] <Ahadiel> scalawag420, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[01:47] <Bucketface> neverblue: I am a little stuck in this ePSXe setup, just on the one step ;~;
[01:47] <scalawag420> Sorry, thank you
[01:47] <ferric84> well, if it does corrupt, i guess it's a sign to completely convert
[01:48] <ferric84> so here i go..
[01:48] <kitche> emeriste, that is just recommended fonts
[01:48] <Flannel> emeriste: that's mozilla determining that it's suggested.  MathML doesn't require them.
[01:48] <strav> now if I try to revert to the "nv" driver I get no nv module found... (I did installed nvidia-glx, linux-restricted and such)
[01:48] <steel_lady> price, how to move a folder so I could finLLY UPGRADE?
[01:48] <nickrud> Ray_at_UW, that's odd, that's what it should be. Try touch /windows/testfile , see if the file gets created
[01:48] <strav> anyone here managed to get the proprietary nvidia drivers to work on linux?
[01:49] <kitche> strav, sure they are the easiest thing to get working
[01:49] <steel_lady> price, I have astronomy package that I can not uninstal and I need space temporarly
[01:49] <strav> kitche, some guidance would be appreciated...
[01:49] <kitche> strav, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:50] <strav> kitche: I just said I had installed nvidia-gl
[01:50] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: I can make "testfile" in the directory, but when I try to save an openoffice file it can't do it.
[01:50] <Sayers> Open ClipArt cannot be installed on your computer type (i386) :O what in the world?
[01:50] <kitche> strav, I see that not paying attention to this channel very much but do you have nvidia in your xorg.conf for driver
[01:50] <emeriste> kitche , Flannel , well how well do you handle this page --- http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/start.xhtml
[01:50] <strav> xorg driver is also set to nv and my /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules, nv is not disabled.
[01:51] <Sayers> Why can't I install things for i386?
[01:51] <nickrud> Ray_at_UW, and you're doing both as the same user?
[01:51] <strav> kitche, for not paying attention, I'm sorry. I'm in screen splitted running ircII from a virtual terminal...
[01:52] <emeriste> My ubuntu distributed firefox is not rendering that page very well. It's doing some of it, but not very pretty, and isn't handling the radicands in the radicals at all. How about for you?
[01:52] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: I don't think so. I think I did a sudo earlier so probably all my terminal commands are running with sudo permissions?
[01:52] <Paddy_EIRE> I get 1 system speaker beep whenever I shutdown or restart my laptop.. this previously never happened I have changed nothing as regards important things like system config... what could be causing this to occur
[01:52] <Bucketface> wait, scratch that, I fixed it!
[01:52] <genesis> helllo
[01:52] <Flannel> emeriste: are you on Ubuntu?
[01:52] <nickrud> Ray_at_UW, no, you have to explictly sudo each and every command you want sudo to apply to
[01:52] <emeriste> Yes.
[01:53] <nickrud> Ray_at_UW, unless you did a sudo -i or sudo -s?
[01:53] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: No. I didn't do that. The FAQ said to avoid doing that.
[01:53] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: I definately ran the command as <username>@computer
[01:53] <Flannel> emeriste: And you get issues with that page?
[01:53] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: Could open office be different? I've had trouble with all GUI applications actually.
[01:54] <nickrud> Ray_at_UW, I don't have a clue, then. If you can touch a file, but open office can't write there, try writing to your home and copying as a short term fix. But the underlying issue, again, I don't have a clue
[01:54] <emeriste> Yes. Not to be picky but it doesn't look as nice as their screen shots. But more seriously, the radicands in the square roots don't render at all. (the radicand is the number 'under' the square root symbol.)
[01:55] <bullet> aaa .where can i change the loader after grub ?
[01:55] <Flannel> emeriste: Sounds like a bug, not a font issue.  File a bug at launchpad
[01:55] <strav> kitche: is there a kernel module file I can explicitly copy to make shure it's loaded by the kernel?
[01:55] <emeriste> I'm talking about this page -- http://www.mozilla.org/projects/mathml/start.xhtml
[01:55] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: All right. Thanks for your help.
[01:55] <kitche> strav, modprobe nvidia
[01:55] <bullet> !graphics
[01:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about graphics - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:55] <emeriste> When you look at the square root symbol are you able to see the numbers inside of it?
[01:55] <kitche> strav, put sudo infront of modprobe
[01:55] <Flannel> emeriste: What's your point/
[01:55] <bullet> !graph
[01:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about graph - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:55] <nickrud> Ray_at_UW, meant to ask: which UW?
[01:56] <strav> kitche, I already tried modprobing nvidia + glx
[01:56] <Flannel> emeriste: Sounds like a firefox (ubuntus version) issue.  File a bug at LP
[01:56] <bullet> !ugraphics
[01:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ugraphics - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:56] <bullet> hrrrrr
[01:56] <kitche> emeriste, Flannel well it tells you it likes certain fonts for that page
[01:56] <strav> kitche: still again: module does not exist
[01:56] <genesis> como va todo???
[01:57] <emeriste> I see actually that the radicands are there. It's just that they aren't being displayed 'in the radical' .
[01:57] <kitche> strav, then your install is messed up remove nvidia-glx and reinstall
[01:57] <strav> kitche: also did that
[01:57] <bullet> what is the graphics channel ?
[01:57] <emeriste> The square roots are messed up. I'll see how to file a bug report if I can.
[01:57] <kitche> strav, how are you installing the driver by chance?
[01:57] <_Jaak_> is there any recent hope that ati is publishing composite drivers?
[01:57] <emeriste> kitche - the square roots are not messed up for you?
[01:58] <strav> kitche: I suspect the nividia proprietary drivers did overwrite some file or...
[01:58] <kitche> emeriste, yes but I don't have the fonts that they recommend
[01:58] <ethan_> how do you uninstall a program?
[01:58] <Pici> emeriste: The numbers under the square root show up as opaque blocks for me in Gutsy.
[01:58] <Flannel> ethan_: how did you install it?
[01:58] <strav> kitche: I'm installing from apt now (wish to at least revert to the free drivers)
[01:59] <ice-11> hi.  windows freeze the moment they disappear when I minimize them.  I'm running beryl.  I have a nvidia geforce go 7600. it's a powerful laptop card
[01:59] <emeriste> Pici - Right that's bad.  Actually, if it's like on my screen, the numbers under the square root are there, they are just well below it, and there is that opaque block thing above them.
[01:59] <bullet> how can i make the cube more little
[01:59] <ethan_> so i installed apache but i want to uninstall apache
[01:59] <ethan_> not sure how
[02:00] <ice-11> ethan_: sudo apt-get remove apache*
[02:00] <bullet> ethan_, sudo apt-get remove --purge apache
[02:00] <emeriste> I know this is not completely an ubuntu complaint but it really marvels me that of all things, math should be difficult to mark up on the internet.  Communicating math should be built into something as technological as the internet.
[02:00] <strav> anyone, where is the nv.ko file supossed to be locate on linux-2.6.20-16-generic?
[02:01] <ice-11> strav: sudo modprobe -l | grep nv.ko
[02:01] <Pici> emeriste: http://nullcortex.com/upload/mathmlbug.png
[02:02] <ryanakca> how can I send all output of ntpdate to /dev/null? 2&>1 /dev/null     ?

[02:03] <wireLESS> hey guys, i need some help with wireless.. i have a prism54 device, which works when i plug it in, but does not work on reboot/startup until i remove and plug it back in.. so i tested ndiswrapper, but it ONLY works if i have the SSID broadcast enabled, and WEP DISabled... any ideas? i'm reading threads about people saying at least 64bit is working for them, and i REALLY don't want to leave my network wide open
[02:03] <bob__> Is there a way to connect to multiple servers at startup with dircproxy?
[02:03] <strav> ice-11: locate nv.ko gives me nothing. It's installed by nvidia-glx right?
[02:04] <kolmilludo> hey guys I need help installing ati dirvers in ubuntu, cause when i try to activate 3d graphics everything goes blak
[02:04] <kolmilludo> can someone help me??
[02:04] <CoasterMaster> !ati | kolmilludo
[02:04] <ubotu> kolmilludo: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:04] <DjViper> kolmilludo: which 3d car do you have?
[02:04] <DjViper> carD*
[02:04] <kolmilludo> ati radeon express 200m
[02:04] <kolmilludo> of 128mb
[02:05] <kitche> kolmilludo, is your card supported by fglrx?
[02:05] <strav> ice-11: locate nv.ko gives me nothing. It's installed by nvidia-glx right?
[02:05] <Dumptruck> hi everybody
[02:05] <Ray_at_UW> nickrud: I figured out my problem. I should chmod things. >.> I'm dumb.
[02:05] <kolmilludo> i dont really know sorry burt im new in linux
[02:05] <kitche> strav, nv is not part of nvidia-glx it's part of xorg
[02:06] <emeriste> Pici - Yep that's what I see also.
[02:06] <Dumptruck> is anyone here familiar with vmware server (not workstation)
[02:06] <strav> kitche: thanks, I'll check if the xorg nv driver is there too.
[02:06] <Dumptruck> I am trying to figure out how to share files between the host and the virtual machine
[02:07] <stoned> hello
[02:07] <Dumptruck> how do I set up shared folders in ubuntu?
[02:07] <kolmilludo> so?? what can i do??
[02:07] <CoasterMaster> Dumptruck: navigate to the folder you want to share, right click on it and go to the shared folders
[02:07] <stoned> how to enable mp3 playback in fesity?
[02:07] <wireLESS> bbiaf hopefully
[02:07] <CoasterMaster> !mp3 | stoned
[02:07] <ubotu> stoned: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[02:07] <kitche> !mp3 | stoned
[02:07] <Dumptruck> yup
[02:07] <stoned> thanks
[02:08] <Dumptruck> but I am unable to locate it from the virtual machine
[02:08] <Tigran> hey, feel free to call me an idiot, but i managed to delete gnome and a lot of other things accidently, i was wondering if there was a way to re-install ubuntu without formating or anything
[02:08] <bullet> CoasterMaster, how to instal deb packs ?
[02:08] <CoasterMaster> bullet: you should just be able to double-click it and the package installer will open
[02:08] <stoned> is there any quality loss in converting mp3 to ogg (free)
[02:08] <stoned> I'd rather not use mp3 if i don't have to
[02:08] <Tigran> stoned: ive done that and no, none that you can hear the diff
[02:08] <CoasterMaster> stoned: yes, generally transcoding from a lossy codec to another lossy codec will result in quality loss
[02:09] <stoned> :(
[02:09] <Tigran> stoned: nvm, ive done ogg to mp3
[02:09] <Flannel> stoned: yes.  They each throw away a different piece of information.  As for whther you'll notice it, that depends.  But there is (there has to be) some quality loss
[02:09] <CoasterMaster> stoned: blut like tigran says, you may not notice it, depends on your setup and how tuned your ear is
[02:09] <kitche> strav, xserver-xorg-video-nv should reinstall nv driver not hte nvidia one
[02:10] <Tigran> CoasterMaster, can you help me out,  i managed to delete gnome and a lot of other things accidently, i was wondering if there was a way to re-install ubuntu without formating or anything
[02:10] <MaxL> Hey guys, how do I set up a wireless network for ubuntu?
[02:10] <CoasterMaster> Tigran: you can give sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[02:10] <CoasterMaster> a shot
[02:10] <MaxL> I have one running on my windows pc but I need to have ubuntu connect to it
[02:10] <CoasterMaster> !wifi | MaxL
[02:10] <ubotu> MaxL: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:10] <MaxL> I just need to find a driver eh?
[02:11] <Tigran> CoasterMaster: ok, cause i tried failsafe terminal, but I dont have internet, how do i configure wifi from terminal?
[02:11] <CoasterMaster> Tigran: that's a tricky one and outside of my expertise...you can't plug in wired temporarily?
[02:11] <stoned> CoasterMaster: I have been playing a multitude of instruments in two different types of musics, western and classical indian for 22 years plus.  When I hear a classical performance and the if it is even a quarter tone off in pitch, I get extremely irritated
[02:12] <soothsayer> Tigran: iwconfig + ifconfig
[02:12] <Tigran> CoasterMaster: wired needs no config?
[02:12] <CoasterMaster> stoned: then it sounds like you might want to re-rip your stuff (or use a lossless format like FLAC)
[02:12] <stoned> CoasterMaster: I think I'll keep my mp3s and copy them, and then convert them, or something
[02:12] <Tigran> Ill use wired, seems easier
[02:12] <soothsayer> Tigran: + dhclient
[02:12] <Pelo> can I use dialup modems to connect two comps together to share one's dsl internet with the other one ?
[02:12] <Flannel> stoned: If you've still got the CDs, rip everything to FLAC.  And then you can encode that into the popular format of the week at perfect quality
[02:12] <kolmilludo> hey guys Im new in linux (you know i hate windogs) but frankly im new at linux and my problem is  Ive tried several ways (posted on-line) to install my video graphics drivers (ati radeon xpress 200M) and my wireless drivers broadcom 4318..... so if somebody can help me please let me know on a private window please
[02:12] <stoned> CoasterMaster: doesn't flac take too much disk space?
[02:12] <Tigran> yea cause its not compressed stoned
[02:13] <stoned> oh
[02:13] <CoasterMaster> stoned: yes, but it's completely lossless (so you can also convert it to whatever other format you choose without any quality loss)
[02:13] <Flannel> No.  FLAC *is* compressed.  It's lossless though
[02:13] <PriceChild> Pelo, if you're gonna try something like that then why not just dial up to an isp?
[02:13] <Tigran> hmm..my bad
[02:13] <Pelo> kolmilludo,  you should start with the basic,  menu > system > admin > restricted drivers
[02:13] <Flannel> It's like taking all your music (wav) files, and gzipping them.
[02:13] <Pelo> PriceChild,  no dialup to my isp
[02:13] <kolmilludo> yeah ive tried that
[02:14] <kolmilludo> buand nothing
[02:14] <Pelo> PriceChild,  it's just to get access to the repos
[02:14] <kolmilludo> i mean beryl does't work on it
[02:14] <gikid> /quit and part ar in a boat, if /part jumps out, who remains?
[02:14] <Pelo> kolmilludo,  to get baryl working you need to install nvidia-glx that's something else
[02:14] <stoned> what is a program (easy pointy clicky) that can convert my entire collection (30~ish GB) of music to ogg?  there are many formats from when I was on windows, so I have wma, mp3, wav etc.
[02:14] <gikid> :P
[02:14] <Tigran> What was the terminal command to scan for wireless networks?
[02:14] <kolmilludo> ok how do i do that
[02:14] <PriceChild> gikid, Please don't do that in this channel.
[02:14] <kolmilludo> in the terminal??
[02:15] <gerro> I got this usb laser mouse, any tips to turn up its precision?
[02:15] <Pelo> kolmilludo,  you'd need to ask in #ubuntu-effects
[02:15] <gikid> PriceChild: it's so funny when 20 people quit
[02:15] <kolmilludo> ubuntu effects??
[02:15] <gerro> gikid: probably server issues
[02:15] <Pelo> PriceChild, have you been mean and nasty again ?
[02:15] <Pelo> kolmilludo,  type  /join #ubuntu-effects
[02:16] <kolmilludo> where (yu are free to call me an idiot but im completly new
[02:16] <kolmilludo> tnaks ill ceck it out
[02:16] <Tigran> What was the terminal command to scan for wireless networks?
[02:16] <Pelo> kolmilludo, just type it where you type to talk here,
[02:16] <stoned> anyone?
[02:16] <emeriste> Pici , kitche, Flannel , I was able to fix this by creating a .fonts directory (which didn't already exist) in ~/    then I downloaded some tex fonts and extracted them into that .fonts directory.
[02:16] <PriceChild> Tigran, sudo iwlist <interface> scan ?
[02:16] <kolmilludo> yes ill do it
[02:16] <Pelo> !wifi | Tigran
[02:16] <ubotu> Tigran: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:16] <Pelo> stoned,  what ?
[02:16] <newb-al> Ok. So I don't think it was a smart idea to try to run ubuntu on a iMAC 1.8GHz PowerPC G5 via Virtual PC 7. Here are some screen shots showing my failure of doing so www.ftp.sh/ubuntu . Can anyone help me?
[02:16] <emeriste> After I closed firefox and opened it back up, it now renders things in an acceptable way.
[02:17] <soothsayer> Tigran: iwlist or iwspy. I can't remembe rwhich
[02:17] <nivekc1> does anyone know how long it takes to rip a dvd with k3b (athlon 64 3800+    2GB RAM)
[02:17] <Tigran> soothsayer, it was iwlist, thanks, sorry but, how do I join a network now, from terminal
[02:18] <soothsayer> Tigran: iwconfig
[02:18] <[1] rhombus> How do I execute a startup script?
[02:18] <stoned> oh I have this thing that keeps happening to knoqueror and firefox both.  Sometimes if i am watching google video or youtube, my browser just freezes up.  This happens in both browsers and usually happens when I try to do back/forward through right mouse click in the page.  It happens maybe 10% of the time, basically killing the browser process and restarting works.  I am using the flash plugin from adobe's website.  please advise.
[02:18] <Tigran> so iwconfig ath0 SSID?'
[02:18] <[1] rhombus> I'm trying to run tftp-hpa
[02:18] <[1] rhombus> but I get no feedback, and it doesn't start
[02:19] <[1] rhombus> in other distros it just works
[02:19] <soothsayer> Tigran: I don't remember 100% but it's something like: iwconfig ath0 essid SSID
[02:19] <soothsayer> Tigran: Maybe you have to specify channel
[02:19] <soothsayer> also
[02:20] <soothsayer> Tigran: Then (if you use dhcp) you need to do dhclient ath0
[02:20] <soothsayer> Tigran: Otherwise, configure manually using ifconfig
[02:20] <javelin> can anyone help me with my tv tuner? :/
[02:20] <Tigran> and to reinstall, the package was gnome-desktop right?
[02:21] <soothsayer> Tigran: I wasn't following your whole conversation...
[02:21] <Tigran> ok heh
[02:21] <[1] rhombus> how come Ubuntu init scripts don't provide feedback?
[02:21] <[1] rhombus> Like they do in gentoo, redhat, etc.
[02:22] <|neon|> is there a channel to ask questions about avant-window-navigator thx
[02:22] <Tigran> soothsayer: well thanks, internet works now
[02:22] <kitche> [1] rhombus, different init system
[02:22] <family> I'm getting an error when installing mythtv-backend:
[02:22] <mehdi> hi
[02:22] <family> svn20070122-0.0ubuntu6_i386.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[02:22] <family> anyone have a fix for that?
[02:22] <kitche> [1] rhombus, but anyways by default it's set to quiet
[02:23] <newb-al> did anyone take a look at that disorted screenshot of my error?
[02:23] <family> when I try to start the backend initscript, it gives me a "mythtv user not found" error, and this seems to be the reason
[02:23] <Templarian> how do you run a .run file?
[02:23] <PriceChild> Templarian, sh /path/to/file.fun
[02:23] <PriceChild> Templarian, what is it?
[02:24] <PriceChild> *.run
[02:24] <Templarian> okay
[02:24] <Templarian> it's tremulous
[02:24] <frank23> family: I don't know but ask in #ubuntu-mythtv
[02:24] <family> thanks
[02:24] <Templarian> I'm on my ubuntu server but I don't use ubuntu so meh. Only computer I have at the moment
[02:25] <PriceChild> Templarian, sudo apt-get install tremulous
[02:25] <mehdi> Update Your Opera
[02:25] <mehdi> http://hyip-man.blogspot.com/2007/08/opera-javascript-invalid-pointer.html
[02:25] <Templarian> PriceChild, lol, didn't think of that. I was just googling for linux games and found tremulus and downloaded it.
[02:27] <Netham45> anyone know a PHP program that lets me administor my PC over the net?
[02:27] <Netham45> I had one, but I forgoot what it was called
[02:27] <soothsayer> PHP?
[02:27] <baikonur> Netham45: why don't you use ssh?
[02:27] <Netham45> because I don't want to open any more ports on this pc
[02:28] <soothsayer> Netham45: What do you mean by administer?
[02:28] <soothsayer> Netham45: You just want system monitoring?
[02:28] <SeveredCross> Anyone experience faac lockups on Feisty?
[02:28] <Netham45> stuff like reboot, but yea, mostly system monitoring
[02:29] <baikonur> Netham45: opening another port for ssh could be more secure than your php remote shell
[02:29] <Netham45> 'webmin'
[02:30] <Netham45> !webmin
[02:30] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system
[02:30] <mehdi> Update Your Opera
[02:30] <mehdi> http://hyip-man.blogspot.com/2007/08/opera-javascript-invalid-pointer.html
[02:30] <Netham45> allready did
[02:30] <boyam>  type /msg NickServ IDENTIFY leumas12
[02:30] <soothsayer> mehdi: Don't spam the channel.
[02:31] <mehdi> ok!
[02:31] <soothsayer> mamnoon
[02:31] <Netham45> wow
[02:31] <Netham45> I feel stupid
[02:31] <Netham45> Im running a windows web server so I join #ubuntu for help.
[02:31] <rjh> down anyone know were to download libmp3lame.so?
[02:32] <PriceChild> boyam, change your password
[02:32] <PriceChild> rjh, search for it on packages.ubuntu.com
[02:32] <[1] rhombus> My tftp server will not start
[02:32] <rjh> ok thanks
[02:32] <wastrel> !info liblame
[02:32] <boyam> PriceChild, i'm on it...tks......sigh
[02:32] <ubotu> Package liblame does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:32] <wastrel> !info liblame0
[02:32] <ubotu> liblame0: LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.96.1-2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 185 kB, installed size 456 kB
[02:32] <[1] rhombus> which logs should I be looking for errors in?
[02:32] <[1] rhombus> !info tftp
[02:32] <ubotu> tftp: Trivial file transfer protocol client. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.17-15ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 15 kB, installed size 80 kB
[02:33] <skkane> what is the gutsy channel called? i keep forgeting
[02:33] <PriceChild> !gutsy | skkane
[02:33] <ubotu> skkane: 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
[02:33] <jehova> how do i set up a printer in ubunt via command line?
[02:33] <skkane> tkz
[02:34] <MaxL> Anyone know if ubuntu will work with a linxsys WMP54G wireless router?
[02:35] <Ahadiel> MaxL, it'd be a pretty crappy router if it didn't
[02:35] <Aaron> Hi all
[02:36] <soothsayer> !hi
[02:36] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:36] <LGKeiz021> YOUR GAY STILL
[02:36] <MaxL> Ahadiel, so I should be able to get it to run on Ubuntu?
[02:36] <Ahadiel> MaxL, It's a router.....
[02:36] <Random832> since i apparently can't get it working, how do i turn off a wireless card
[02:36] <Aaron> Is there any decent way to get MSN on Ubuntu
[02:36] <Random832> there's no hardware switch
[02:36] <MaxL> Ahadiel, it's a wireless router, will it still work?
[02:36] <Ahadiel> Aaron, sudo apt-get install amsn
[02:36] <Aaron> Thanks
[02:36] <baikonur> MaxL: it has nothing to do with ubuntu
[02:36] <PriceChild> Aaron, Ahadiel gaim does it out of the box fine
[02:36] <soothsayer> Random832:  'iwconfig txpower off' should work
[02:37] <PriceChild> Aaron, Ahadiel no need whatsoever to install other applications
[02:37] <rjh> without this chat thing i would be lost in outerspace
[02:37] <baikonur> MaxL: the question is if your wifi card works under ubuntu
[02:37] <Random832> soothsayer: does nothing
[02:37] <MaxL> MaxL, >_> I kinda knew that I meant was there drivers or whatnot or will it just work out of the box (I dont actually own the router Im trying to help a friend)
[02:37] <Random832> iwconfig still says it's set to 14
[02:37] <boyam> PriceChild, ca't believe i did that....geeezzz......what a day
[02:38] <soothsayer> Random832:  'iwconfig INTERFACE txpower off' should work
[02:38] <Random832> ...that's what i did.
[02:38] <Random832> it's not working - the light's still on
[02:38] <baikonur> MaxL: wifi is a standard that works independent of an OS
[02:38] <MaxL> so if I just plug in the adapter
[02:39] <baikonur> MaxL: does he connect to the router via cable or via wlan?
[02:39] <Ahadiel> MaxL, it's the wireless card/adaptor you may have troubles with
[02:39] <MaxL> and then go through network configuration and it should work?
[02:39] <newb-al> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a iMAC PowerPC and after loading I get this first error:
[02:39] <newb-al> There was an error starting GNOME Settings Daemon.
[02:39] <newb-al> Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work correctly.
[02:39] <newb-al> The last error message was:
[02:39] <newb-al> Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timed out expired, or the network connect was broken.
[02:39] <newb-al> GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you login in.
[02:39] <soothsayer> Random832: I'm not sure how to disable it more than that
[02:39] <Random832> i get really crappy battery life with it on, and it's somehow messed up [can't talk to any networks, even though it could for the first day i had ubuntu]
[02:39] <soothsayer> !enter | newb-al
[02:39] <ubotu> newb-al: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:39] <Random832> could the hardware (ath driver) have gone into some kind of "lockout" mode?
[02:40] <Aaron> Can I share my Wireless internet connection in Ubuntu to my Ethernet port?
[02:40] <baikonur> Aaron: yes
[02:40] <soothsayer> Random832: Is that the error message you get
[02:40] <Aaron> I guess now I don't do any PC gaming, I think I should switch!
[02:41] <[1] rhombus> hello?
[02:41] <[1] rhombus> can anyone hear me?
[02:41] <rhoruns> yes
[02:41] <wastrel> [1] rhombus:  welcome to IRC
[02:41] <[1] rhombus> okay: how do i start my tftp server?
[02:41] <[1] rhombus> it won't start
[02:41] <jehova> hey
[02:41] <soothsayer> [1] rhombus: tftpd?
[02:42] <[1] rhombus> soothsayer: yes
[02:42] <soothsayer> [1] rhombus: I think you need to configure /etc/tftpd.conf first
[02:42] <Aaron> Do I want 7.04 or 6.06 guys?
[02:42] <soothsayer> [1] rhombus: Then try /etc/init.d/tftpd start
[02:42] <[1] rhombus> I'm starting it with "/etc/init.d/tftp-hpa start" and nothing is happening
[02:42] <baikonur> MaxL: if it works depends on the hardware your friend has in his computer. you have to know the exact name of the wlan card that is being used in order to check if it will work with linux
[02:42] <soothsayer> [1] rhombus: (or restart)
[02:42] <MaxL> I think he's going to use one of those usb thingers
[02:43] <dmglouis> can someone help me? whenever i use totem it goes fullscreen (with controls) without any window decoration. I have to watch all videos like that or full screen it. I have no option for resizing it
[02:43] <soothsayer> Random832: Did you try disabling it in the BIOS?
[02:43] <larson9999> i finally see what folks are talking about when they say ubuntu has crappy fonts.  i upgraded to gutsy and the fonts in ff look horrible.
[02:43] <rjh> audacity rejected the mp3 lib
[02:43] <MaxL> baikonur, does it still work if he uses the USB?
[02:43] <baikonur> MaxL: if he uses an ethernet cable to connect to the router it will probably work just after the network configuration
[02:43] <soothsayer> dmglouis: Did you try 'f'
[02:44] <[1] rhombus> root      5919  5332  0 18:31 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /var/lib/tftpboot
[02:44] <[1] rhombus> okay, so now it is running
[02:44] <BlueSurf> hello, i want to boot the ubuntu iso image install file from my c:\ drive because my cd rom drive isnt working correctly , is this possible , how do i do this?
[02:44] <[1] rhombus> but it won't stop
[02:44] <dmglouis> soothsayer: yea that just makes it go fullscreen and that works
[02:44] <[1] rhombus> this is driving me bananas
[02:44] <Random832> soothsayer: eh - ideally i'd like to _use_ it - so i want a way to turn it on and off when i want to try to fix it
[02:44] <Random832> [and, any idea why it would suddenly stop working like it did?]
[02:44] <[1] rhombus> "/etc/init.d/tftp-hpa stop"  has no effect
[02:44] <wastrel> Random832:  you could try to rmmod the driver and then modprobe it back in
[02:44] <soothsayer> Random832: No, sorry. I don't know much about wireless troubleshooting
[02:44] <baikonur> MaxL: depends on the USB adapter. you have to have the exact name of the stick. it's a good idea to google the name of the usb stick + ubuntu to see if there are problems or success reports for that particular device
[02:45] <Random832> wastrel: i've rebooted multiple times
[02:45] <Random832> it hasn't worked in a week

[02:53] <rhoruns> lol
[02:53] <Dumptruck> from what I understand I can use samba
[02:53] <Kelpie-VMW> I should have known it was an eggdrop.

[02:56] <xtknight> Ahadiel  ah thx
[02:57] <soothsayer> whistler6594: I can't recommend anything easy (although they may exist)
[02:57] <Traveler52> good question
[02:57] <[1] rhombus> I think I am going to switch to Gentoo.
[02:57] <[1] rhombus> I can't even get a simple tftp service running.
[02:57] <rafaelscj> Fat-Mike, no, but I think there is a small program that do it under DOS
[02:58] <Traveler52> smile
[02:58] <whistler6594> soothsayer: yea i have been searching for first step into traffic shaping but its a bit over my head.  I'll just push through it i guess..thanks
[02:58] <[1] rhombus> no log output, no console output
[02:58] <rafaelscj> Fat-Mike, I don't remember the program's name
[02:58] <[1] rhombus> how are you supposed to troubleshoot when there's no feedback?
[02:58] <CoasterMaster> whistler: what kind of traffic shaping do you want to do?
[02:58] <BlueSurf84> rafaelscj, i use winxp on ntfs so i dont have dos
[02:58] <whistler6594> throttle bandwidth
[02:58] <chalkedony> if you have more than one kernel how do you get past a kernel panic in one to the one which is supposed to work?
[02:59] <CoasterMaster> whistler: what kind of router do you have?
[02:59] <rafaelscj> BlueSurf84, you could use a Win98 floppy disc
[02:59] <CoasterMaster> whistler: if you do have one, that is
[02:59] <whistler6594> debian
[02:59] <[1] rhombus> can someone explain to me why i don't get ANY output when I run a boot script as root?
[03:00] <soothsayer> whistler6594: You can maybe try 'pyshaper' (I have never used it myself)
[03:00] <Ahadiel> [1] rhombus, Maybe there just is no output
[03:00] <[1] rhombus> I look at the script and I'm supposed to get a usage summary if I don't provide a valid flag
[03:00] <rafaelscj> BlueSurf84, I will get the program's name
[03:00] <BlueSurf84> rafaelscj, no i dont have floppy drive its a dell laptop, what about boot from external cd/dvd usb drive?
[03:00] <[1] rhombus> Ahadiel: no, the script shows I'm supposed to get output
[03:00] <forest252525> i cannot boot on linux anymore: grub loading error 17, can someone help me
[03:00] <whistler6594> id rather use iptables htb and tc command subset for iptables
[03:00] <whistler6594> and move out from there
[03:00] <rafaelscj> BlueSurf84, So, burn a CD
[03:00] <[1] rhombus> which tftp server should I be using?
[03:01] <soothsayer> [1] rhombus: It's a bourne shell script
[03:01] <soothsayer> ?
[03:01] <Random832> ok - i'm doing more wireless troubleshooting - i had it working for a minute but not in roaming mode
[03:01] <[1] rhombus> soothsayer -- yeah, in "/etc/init.d"
[03:01] <Random832> huh - now it's working even then
[03:01] <soothsayer> [1] rhombus: Try turning on debugging (-x I think)
[03:01] <BlueSurf84> rafaelscj, i cant burn a cd, i already tried burning 6 of them ad scraped 6 cds! they're cheap disks
[03:02] <[1] rhombus> soothsayer -- what am I feeding -x to?
[03:02] <Ahadiel> BlueSurf84, Try burning them at 4x (instead of max)
[03:02] <soothsayer> [1] rhombus: sh -x /etc/init.d/foo
[03:02] <rafaelscj> BlueSurf84, so, can't you burn a bootable CD?
[03:02] <File13> I need to find out if my wlan device is wlan1 or wlan0 how would i go about doing that
[03:02] <wastrel> burn slower
[03:03] <BlueSurf84> ahadiel, yeah i tried that i tried all speeds
[03:03] <Random832> what do "Rx invalid nwid" packets mean?
[03:03] <Ahadiel> BlueSurf84, Are you making a data CD, or burning the IMAGE?
[03:03] <Random832> is that, someone else is on the same channel?
[03:03] <BlueSurf84> i tried 2x 4x 8x 16x 32x and max
[03:03] <wastrel> File13:  iwconfig  ?
[03:03] <sirisian> hmm so how do you install tremulous... anyone tried it says something like, "srbin/archive not found" then closes not 100% sure what it says
[03:03] <soothsayer> File13: iwconfig?
[03:03] <File13> lemme try
[03:03] <BlueSurf84> im burning the image
[03:03] <kitche> sirisian, sudo apt-get install tremulous
[03:03] <Ahadiel> BlueSurf84, what app?
[03:03] <sirisian> kitche that works
[03:03] <sirisian> but when I run it it just says it can't find some directory
[03:04] <UnFeeLinG> S.a piler
[03:04] <sirisian> maybe if I tell it no when it requests
[03:04] <BlueSurf84> im doing it properly , when i check cd integrity from the alternate menu, it shows up as corrupt
[03:04] <kitche> sirisian, probably you didn't install the -data package as well
[03:04] <UnFeeLinG> sie
[03:04] <sirisian> kitche, oh! how do I get that?
[03:04] <BlueSurf84> ahadiel, im using infrarecorder
[03:04] <wastrel> BlueSurf:  did you check md5sums on the iso
[03:04] <kitche> sirisian, sudo apt-get install tremulous-data should install it
[03:05] <UnFeeLinG> sirisian fuck you asterd
[03:05] <BlueSurf84> ahadiel, i also tried nero
[03:05] <Ahadiel> BlueSurf84, I use imgburn (windows) when I have to, it's free
[03:05] <UnFeeLinG> suck my cock
[03:05] <Ahadiel> but yeah, also check the md5sum as wastrel said
[03:05] <BlueSurf84> wastrel, yes md5sums are all ok
[03:06] <kitche> PriceChild, was just about to call for one of you :)
[03:06] <jiam> whistler6594: can i pm you? i wanted to chat regarding usage of iproute2
[03:06] <File13> ok so im guessing since its only showing a wlan0 that its wlan0
[03:06] <BlueSurf84> ahadiel, infra recorder is also free from sourceforge, ist the one ubuntu recommends
[03:06] <Javid> can someone instruct me as to how to make ubuntu display things in fixedsys
[03:07] <Javid> I did apt-cache search fixedsys and installed the thing that came up but the font still does not appear in my options
[03:07] <wastrel> Javid:  what's fixedsys?
[03:08] <Javid> a font
[03:08] <Javid> the only one I know of that is reliably fixed-width, which is of use to me
[03:08] <wastrel> seems to be a monospace windows font? per google
[03:08] <wastrel> try "monospace"
[03:08] <vas> hey can someone give me an example to use some feature in beryl, I installed it and I wanna test if it is working correctly
[03:09] <Javid> vas: ctrl+alt+click and drag
[03:09] <BlueSurf84> does anyone know how to make my external usb cd/dvd drive bootable?
[03:09] <Javid> see if the cube goes off
[03:09] <wastrel> also courier is fixed-width
[03:09] <BlueSurf84> is there software that allows this because my bios dosent seem to allow it
[03:09] <vas> Javid: drag waht?
[03:09] <rhoruns> hey, im just curious. am i able to swap this HDD in to a different PC, and still have a functional OS? or would i have to reformat/reinstall Ubuntu to get it to work.
[03:10] <sirisian> tremulous just crashes and logs me out of ubuntu
[03:10] <forest252525> i cannot boot on linux anymore: grub loading error 17, can someone help me
[03:10] <sirisian> I don't get it
[03:10] <wastrel> Javid:  i'm using bistream vera sans mono  for my monospace in gnome and i like it :]
[03:10] <Javid> hmm
[03:10] <Javid> ok
[03:10] <Javid> that works too
[03:10] <jiam> forest252525: do you have the liveCD ? boot from it and then do a recovery perhaps
[03:10] <rafaelscj> rhoruns, I think you will need to reinstall
[03:10] <rhoruns> aww :(
[03:10] <rhoruns> darn
[03:10] <rhoruns> lol
[03:10] <Javid> linux needs a version of sysprep
[03:11] <vas> Javid: what do I drag
[03:11] <forest252525> ok, i will try this
[03:11] <Javid> anywhere on the screen
[03:11] <rafaelscj> rhoruns, i did it with FreeBSD and win98 and theys works
[03:11] <wastrel> ok what's sysprep
[03:11] <Javid> that is the big glowing thing my words appear on
[03:11] <Javid> wastrel, it's a thing on windows XP that lets you clone an install to another system
[03:11] <rhoruns> will Ubuntu fidn the correct drivers that are needed?
[03:11] <rhoruns> find*
[03:11] <Geek_> Javid: actually i think the only issue is with drive locations/fstab. if you editr it appriately it should work
[03:12] <wastrel> clone an install.  like a kickstart file?
[03:12] <Javid> I dunno
[03:14] <kkrusty> can anyone tell me where i could get complete gnome themes for ubuntu feisty?
[03:14] <sirisian> how do I uninstall something that doesn't show up in the add/remove thing?
[03:14] <Zagalo> hiall

[03:15] <Flannel> kkrusty: any gnome themes work with ubuntu
[03:15] <Zagalo> in xfce in app menu, i see random, what is it?
[03:16] <matthew_> how do you prevent the Trash from having the warning when you want to empty it?
[03:16] <wastrel> sirisian:  how did you install it?
[03:16] <sirisian> sh
[03:17] <wastrel> sirisian:  you'll need to be more specific :]   what was the command you used?
[03:18] <sirisian> wastrel sudo sh /home/brandon/Desktop/tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[03:19] <Aaron> What's the difference between the DVD and CD release?
[03:19] <Flannel> sirisian: tremulous is in the repos.  Why are you not using package management?
[03:19] <PriceChild> Aaron, dvd contains the entire main and restricted repositories
[03:20] <Aaron> Thanks
[03:20] <Flannel> Aaron: DVD includes both live, and textmode installer
[03:20] <sirisian> Flannel, I did it crashed just the same

[03:22] <File13> is there anyway to dual boot windows and ubuntu if i already have ubuntu installed?
[03:22] <lgc_> How can I reinitialize the CDROM reader?
[03:22] <File13> i know in theory your suppost to install windows first so windows doesnt install over GRUB
[03:23] <stdin> File13: you'd have to install windows then reinstall grub
[03:23] <ectospasm> File13:  it should be straightforward
[03:23] <ectospasm> File13:  I'm planning on doing that
[03:23] <ectospasm> You'll need to reinstall grub to the MBR, but it should work
[03:24] <stdin> File13: install windows that boot the liveCD and follow: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[03:24] <ectospasm> Windows may not like it if its not the first partition, so be careful
[03:24] <xazo> hello

[03:31] <CoasterMaster> which requires gnome
[03:31] <rhoruns> anyone know of a good ISO burner??
[03:32] <Random832> no, it lives in the notification area, which works on every desktop environment. it may or may not require gnome libraries, but it is NOT a panel applet

[03:34] <ckin2001> sport - only if 555 is a user name
[03:34] <Q^aeria> neverblue, you there?
[03:34] <patron> +747+++
[03:35] <kitche> Random832, but it doesn't have a frontend to xfce
[03:35] <Feistyfreak> oooohhhh... k... ?  not why I came here, but suddenly my Xchat userlist is gone
[03:35] <gabriel> hi, if I want to disable a kernel module, what file should I edit?
[03:35] <sport> ckin2001 whats the cmd to change the permission of a folder to 555 and all the files within
[03:35] <gabriel> I mean, in others distros I can edit /etc/modules.conf
[03:36] <Flannel> !blacklist | gabriel
[03:36] <ubotu> gabriel: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u
[03:36] <ckin2001> sport - man chmod
[03:36] <gabriel> Flannel, ubotu: thanks
[03:37] <Pelo> what is a low latency kernel usefull for ?
[03:37] <[1] rhombus> how can I remove a package without removing packages that depend on it?
[03:37] <Flannel> Pelo: stuff like sound that you don't want *any* hiccups in
[03:38] <Pelo> [1] rhombus, not sure you can,  what do you need to do this for
[03:38] <Flannel> [1] rhombus: that would defeat the purpose of package management
[03:38] <happyface> [1] rhombus, what are you trying to remove
[03:38] <[1] rhombus> I need to do this because I need to rebuild the package
[03:38] <[1] rhombus> I cannot get tftpd-hpa to run properly
[03:38] <scalawag420> Can anyone tell me how to remove a package that doesn't seem to want to be removed?
[03:38] <[1] rhombus> I don't get error output, nothing
[03:38] <ckin2001> dpkg may be able to remove it - use at your own risk
[03:38] <wastrel> apt-get install --reinstall tftpd-hpa  ?
[03:38] <Pelo> [1] rhombus,  just remove the dependent package as well and reinstall it when you are done
[03:38] <Flannel> [1] rhombus: You'll need to make a dummy package to satisfy the depends
[03:38] <[1] rhombus> if you can help me get this tftp server working, I can skip the removal
[03:39] <scalawag420> dpkg - how do I use that?  like apt-get remove?
[03:39] <ckin2001> man dpkg
[03:39] <Truman_> scalawag420: If sudo apt-get remove doesn't work, you could try synaptic, find the package and "mark for complete removal" .. that worked for me
[03:39] <Flannel> [1] rhombus: you dead set on tftp?  There are other ftp clients.  If you don't really care whcih one you use
[03:39] <Pelo> Flannel,  any use for old slow computers ? ( the low latency kernel thing)
[03:39] <wireLESS> Hey guys, I have a prism54 device that does not work on boot (i have to un/replug the device, which is not wanted).. NDISWRAPPER is working on boot for me, but does not allow me to a) disable ssid broadcast, and b) use WEP 64 or 128 bit encryption for security.. can anyone help? (Device = Netgear wg111v2)
[03:39] <CoasterMaster> you can also use synpatic to mark for reinstallation
[03:39] <richard> im trying to install screenlets
[03:39] <richard> can someone help me
[03:39] <scalawag420> Truman_ tried both, both give the same result
[03:39] <Flannel> Truman_, scalawag420, apt-get remove --purge [package]  is the same as "complete removal"
[03:39] <caoinan> how should I format my external hard drive  does it matter?
[03:39] <[1] rhombus> Flannel: I need tftpd because this is an LTSP server --- which, in the lab, was working fine
[03:40] <Pelo> richard, what is the problem ?
[03:40] <[1] rhombus> now, in the production environment, the tftp server is misbehaving
[03:40] <Flannel> Pelo: No.  For stuff like studio sound stuff, or real time video, or whatnot.  lowlatency gives the active process priority over all others.
[03:40] <richard> well i need to know what to install and how to run it
[03:40] <Pelo> Flannel,  thanks
[03:40] <scalawag420> I get this message:
[03:40] <[1] rhombus> and now it tells me  -- when I do apt-get install --reinstall tftpd-hpa -- that it cannot be downloaded

[03:41] <Javid> what's the command to view info on a package from the terminal?
[03:41] <Flannel> scalawag420: please don't paste here
[03:41] <Pelo> richard,  there should be a deb package on the screenlets site, and a few packages with  screenlets inthem ,  just dl them and run the deb starting with  the app one
[03:41] <scalawag420> sorry for the scroll....
[03:41] <Sivik> when using rdesktop, is there a way to drag and drop files to the base system
[03:41] <Javid> like !info in here, but in console
[03:41] <Javid> !info kuake
[03:41] <ubotu> kuake: Console which looks like Quake game console. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3-5.2 (feisty), package size 45 kB, installed size 248 kB
[03:41] <Flannel> Javid: apt-cache show [package]  (or showpkg)
[03:41] <wastrel> Javid:  apt-cache policy package
[03:41] <Javid> thanks
[03:41] <wastrel> policy is more concise
[03:41] <scalawag420> how do I tell if cluster lvm is running?
[03:41] <[1] rhombus> has tftpd-hpa been deprecated?
[03:41] <Pelo> kitche,  thanks
[03:41] <Q^aeria> neverblue, you there?
[03:41] <richard> nope, just a tar.bz2 file
[03:42] <Flannel> [1] rhombus: which version of ubuntu are you running?
[03:42] <Javid> that is exactly what I needed, thanks
[03:42] <orbisvicis> i need export AWT_TOOLKIT="MToolkit" to be applied when i log in. I cant put it in .bashrc, b/c itll only work from the terminal. So where else should it go?
[03:42] <caoinan> how should I format my external hard drive if I want to use it in linux and windoze does it matter?
[03:42] <Pelo> richard,  give me the direct link to the package
[03:42] <wastrel> orbisvicis:  what will only work from the terminal?
[03:42] <richard> http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/screenlets/failid/screenlets-0.0.10.tar.bz2
[03:42] <Pelo> caoinan,  fat32
[03:42] <Flannel> [1] rhombus: no, it's there.  In main.  Try `sudo apt-get update` first.  Make sure you're connecting properly and stuff
[03:43] <caoinan> ok thanks
[03:43] <wireLESS> no
[03:43] <wireLESS> use ntfs
[03:43] <wastrel> scalawag420:  do a ps aux | grep  for it i guess.
[03:43] <wireLESS> and install ntfs-3g
[03:43] <orbisvicis> wastrel, netbeans & java swing windows. They will only display w/ compiz if that env variable is set before login
[03:43] <wireLESS> caoinan: ^^^
[03:43] <DerekS> i want to bind a key to open gnome-launch-box, any suggestions?
[03:43] <wireLESS> or use ext3, and get the ext3 drivers for windows
[03:43] <Pelo> richard,  please use my nick in each line when talking to me, it makes it easier to follow
[03:43] <caoinan> why
[03:43] <Flannel> DerekS: what's gnome-launch-box?
[03:43] <wireLESS> caoinan: why to which?
[03:43] <DerekS> Flannel: its really cool
[03:43] <scalawag420> how do I stop it if it's running - it is, checked under KsysV
[03:43] <DerekS> basically quicksilver for gnome
[03:43] <richard> palo, thats all i could find
[03:43] <Pelo> richard, hold on , the checking it out
[03:43] <wireLESS> caoinan: (cuz i gave you 2 options that are 10000000 better than fat32)
[03:44] <Pelo> richard,  it,s Pelo
[03:44] <scalawag420> and what is it used for, don't want more harm then repair here.
[03:44] <caoinan> will fat 32 not work as well
[03:44] <Flannel> DerekS: I'd bind it overtop of alt-f2, since that already has that functionality.  If I understand correctly.
[03:44] <wireLESS> i suppose it will, but fat32 sucks
[03:44] <caoinan> should i just use ext
[03:44] <wastrel> did the dude leave?
[03:44] <wastrel> i was just about to fix is problem
[03:44] <wastrel> meh
[03:44] <riotkittie> will fat32 not work for what?
[03:44] <werkkrew> I have Compiz-Fusion installed, and seemingly running but CCSM Settings don't affect anything, and none of the basic features seem to work - compiz --replace doesnt return any errors though

[03:46] <Pelo> scalawag420, do you have a lvm cluster ?
[03:46] <scalawag420> I don't know what an LVM cluster is.
[03:46] <wastrel> orbisvicis:  you want ~/.bash_profile  or ~/.bash_login  for that, rather than .bashrc
[03:46] <richard> pelo, that dont work either
[03:46] <riotkittie> zitner: do you have the proper codecs installed?
[03:46] <scalawag420> Sorry, completely new and trying to get a few things working.
[03:46] <DerekS> Flannel: do you know how?
[03:46] <Flannel> DerekS: Ah.  You weren't asking which key to set it to.  Gotcha.  System > Preferences > Keyboard shortcuts
[03:46] <orbisvicis> wastrel, ty
[03:46] <Pelo> zitner,  open synaptic , and install every gstreamer 10  packag you see
[03:46] <riotkittie> LoL
[03:47] <DerekS> Flannel: how do i add one there though? i figured out how to change one...
[03:47] <richard> ok i have the screenlets control panel up and running, but it wont let me open any screenlets
[03:47] <wastrel> tho it seems my .bash_profile is including .bashrc
[03:47] <xazo> riotkittie... you know how to fix video problem on dell m90?

[03:48] <bjiggs> any perl people here?
[03:48] <wastrel> #perl
[03:48] <riotkittie>  xazo: i believe you'll need to reconfigure xorg.conf ...  you can open a term and type (without the quotes) "sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.bak"   and then "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[03:48] <bjiggs> it's actually an #ubuntu perl install question...
