[03:16] <jared> did you know that PHP stands for PHP Hypertext Processor? isn't that stupid?
[03:16] <ubm> IndyGunFreak please toss me the link
[03:16] <arooni> hey folks
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZXcuhJkwx4
[03:16] <rbil> |Jason8|m|: wget
[03:16] <salty> wget <the URL>
[03:16] <elkbuntu> jared, about as stupid as GNU's Not Unix
[03:16] <arooni> how do i write to a readonly file
[03:16] <Z_Morek> well... I've managed to completely break lirc on my system
[03:16] <SilentDis> |Jason8|m|, from the command line, you can issue a `wget http://server.com/file.whatever` command, if that's what you're looking for
[03:16] <arooni> in /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:16] <arooni> folr example
[03:16] <ffxr> Pelo they are set perfectly .. using my monitors manual.. & EVERYTHING elese works fine... i was thinking the bootsplash image was too big or something...
[03:16] <|Jason8|m|> thanks :)
[03:16] <Z_Morek> and I am jumping with joy
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: resolution is awful, must becuse of the standard TV output
[03:16] <|Jason8|m|> Exactly what I was looking for :)
[03:16] <ray_> hello all
[03:17] <Z_Morek> anyone here good with lirc?
[03:17] <BalsamicChicken> how come when i burn a file on cd on one computer, i can't view the newly burnt file on another computer and this computer says the cd is full and therefore can't write new files onto this cd
[03:17] <Pelo> ffxr,  this is not the default splash screen I take it ?
[03:17] <arooni> hey folks.... how can edit a read only file
[03:17] <Z_Morek> and able to guide me thru fixing a bad install
[03:17] <SilentDis> !info lirc
[03:17] <ubotu> lirc: Linux Infra-red Remote Control support. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.8.0-5ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 308 kB, installed size 1544 kB
[03:17] <Z_Morek> arooni check the permissions
[03:17] <grndslm> that was helpful
[03:17] <bjames> does anyone have experience of installing Ubuntu over multiple drives using software JBOD?
[03:17] <arooni> Z_Morek: how do i do that... and how do i change persmission so i can edit it
[03:17] <ray_> i've installed ubuntu on my second hard drive but it doesn't seem to have installed grub, thus i never get the option to choose which OS I'd like to use
[03:18] <ubm> IndyGunFreak yeah FC5 thats nuts
[03:18] <Tom_Kun> I have a driver question for ubuntu. Is there any way of getting the CNET CNUSB-611AR working? I know it uses atmel, but I have had 0 success in making it work properly in the past.
[03:18] <SilentDis> arooni, so long as it's on a partition mounted read/write, and just has permissions set for read only, you can use sudo to gain temporary super-user privalages.  what file are you trying to edit?
[03:18] <pucho> Hello
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: yeah, but the res sucks, he needs to get a hi def tv..lol
[03:18] <ray_> how do i install grub to the second hard drive now?
[03:18] <arooni> in /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:18] <pucho> No entiendo nada
[03:18] <Z_Morek> ubotu: I need to install from source
[03:18] <Z_Morek> nvm
[03:18] <ffxr> yes it is.. Pelo.. ive had this problem since i first put the LiveCD into my CDROM.. everything is fine, except for 10secs of blackness during the boot process...
[03:18] <pucho> De que est'an Hablando_
[03:19] <salty> arooni 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[03:19] <SilentDis> arooni, unless you know EXACTLY what you're doing, i don't recommend editing your sources.list file without a backup.  here's the command though: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:19] <Pelo> ffxr,  that's a bit out of my league, try looking it up on the forum
[03:19] <eck> Q_Continuum: so you can't format the drive?
[03:19] <pucho> You are de Pelo, or not
[03:19] <eck> use the live cd
[03:19] <arooni> i'm just uncommeting some stuff....
[03:19] <|Jason8|m|> Okay, so I downloaded the .deb file, now how do I install it?
[03:19] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: one of those videos shows Windows XP running on a PS3..lol
[03:19] <arooni> i dont know what im doing , i m following http://www.urbanpuddle.com/articles/2006/12/07/install-ruby-rails-on-ubuntu-edgy-eft
[03:19] <SilentDis> salty, if you're looking to super-user a gui program such as gedit, use gksudo ;)
[03:19] <Pelo> pucho,  I am "a" Pelo
[03:19] <jared> Yeah I hear you can put any OS on a PS3
[03:19] <bjames> WinXP on PS3?!
[03:20] <salty> arooni 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[03:20] <ffxr> ok.. Pelo.. thanks for replying... [i think its got something to with an unsupported EEPROM on my motherboard...]
[03:20] <S0crates> Anyone gotten anjuta 2.1.1 working?
[03:20] <bjames> I didn't realise they were x86
[03:20] <arooni> ahh ok
[03:20] <SilentDis> |Jason8|m|, what are you trying to install?
[03:20] <arooni> salty: i accidentally did chmod 777
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> bjames: yep....  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-Ecr8tWetI&mode=related&search=
[03:20] <ray_> i've installed ubuntu on my second hard drive but it doesn't seem to have installed grub, thus i never get the option to choose which OS I'd like to use
[03:20] <arooni> salty: to edit it... how can i revert it back to read only
[03:20] <pucho> Where are you from_
[03:20] <ray_> how can i go back and install grub?
[03:20] <Q_Continuum> eck: crap.  I don't have any burned copies around.  I think I'll try doing it from windows again to the USB drive.  Think pre-partitioning it, then dd'ing that boot.img will work? (to a single partition)
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> bjames: nevermind..
[03:20] <Z_Morek> arooni google around for chmod
[03:20] <salty> as soon as you close it it'll be the  same
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> idiot said it was XP, but its Fedora with Qemu running XP..lol
[03:20] <grndslm> arooni:  man chmod
[03:20] <Q_Continuum> eck: or would dd write to the whole device, and overwrite any and all partitions?
[03:20] <Z_Morek> it's a good thing to know about... and knowing permissions
[03:20] <|Jason8|m|> SilentDis, there's a program that installs nvidia drivers, I just downloaded it, it's a .deb file.  I'm doing everything with the commandline, so I'm kinda iffy on it all.
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> still pretty impressive.
[03:21] <SilentDis> |Jason8|m|, using envy I take it?
[03:21] <jared> gah! I forget how to get to the wine config. Anyone know?
[03:21] <|Jason8|m|> yep
[03:21] <|Jason8|m|> now I have to install it!
[03:21] <grndslm> anybody know why my network-manager isn't showing a list of available wireless networks, only wired??
[03:21] <eck> Q_Continuum: what would you be dd'ing?
[03:21] <SilentDis> |Jason8|m|, sudo dpkg -i envy*.deb :)
[03:21] <eck> sorry, i am a bit confused
[03:21] <Q_Continuum> eck: that boot.img that we tried last time.  It wanted an ISO of the Live CD.
[03:21] <ray_> i've installed ubuntu on my second hard drive but it doesn't seem to have installed grub, thus i never get the option to choose which OS I'd like to use
[03:21] <SilentDis> |Jason8|m|, after that, it's just sudo envy, and it does everything else for you :D
[03:22] <|Jason8|m|> SilentDis, thanks a lot! :D
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: did you see that video claiming to run XP on a PS3?...lol
[03:22] <ray_> how can i install grub now?
[03:22] <bjames> nobody in here using JBOD then?
[03:22] <Q_Continuum> eck: which is what stopped it from installing.  dd'ing the boot.img to the drive (when it was one partition) overwrote it and told the drive that it only had about 250MB free.  Otherwise I would've dropped the .ISO on there and done it.
[03:22] <arooni> so its execute, write, read, ALL from 1,2,4,7
[03:22] <SilentDis> !grub | ray_
[03:22] <ubotu> ray_: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:22] <SilentDis> !info jbod
[03:22] <ubotu> Package jbod does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[03:22] <arooni> and where it is depends on which group of users gets to do it
[03:22] <salty> grndslm i use wifi-radar to show  local access points
[03:22] <ray_> thanks
[03:22] <grndslm> to show?
[03:22] <salty> yes
[03:22] <gwanky> Howdy, quick question
[03:23] <grndslm> network-manager worked great for a while
[03:23] <ubm> IndyGunFreak yeah apparently the PS3 allows you to save information such as bootloaders in memory thats awesome
[03:23] <khaije> !jbod
[03:23] <salty> mt 'network-manager' doesn't scan for access points but 'wifi-radar' will
[03:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jbod - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:23] <SilentDis> gwanky, ask quickly, there's too much blood in my nicotiene system right now, and while I am working to rectify that, my attention span is short lol
[03:23] <|Jason8|m|> d'oh!
[03:23] <salty> my*
[03:23] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: yeah.. but the thing was, he wasn't running windows, he was running FC5, w/ Qemu and Windows. XP
[03:23] <gwanky> My brother has a windows computer and I have a linux computer. When I burn Age of Empires II (the windows version, I'm using wine) on my brothers computer it reports all the files as not valid win32 applications.
[03:23] <eck> Q_Continuum: try the image here http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[03:23] <grndslm> salty:  very odd, i dunno if i like where this is headed
[03:24] <eck> Q_Continuum: i don't know how you plan on partitioning the drive beforehand
[03:24] <grndslm> sounds like a bug to me
[03:24] <eck> that is what i am confused about
[03:24] <ormandj> why aren't my windows drives being automatically mounted? i checked the help docs, they say they should be
[03:24] <bjames> khaije: Ever tried it?
[03:24] <Q_Continuum> eck: I can boot to windows on the laptop I'm installing it on. (haven't wiped it yet)
[03:24] <SilentDis> gwanky, i've never herd of such a problem.  are you buring from an iso or just files?
[03:24] <eck> Q_Continuum: i think you can write the boot.img with dd in windows
[03:24] <khaije> bjames: are you talking about just a bunch of disks aka lvm ?
[03:24] <Q_Continuum> eck: and repartition it with two, then when I dd the .img it (hopefully) only clobbers the one partition.
[03:24] <Chef> hey, anyone know why my 6.06 system won't let me know about 6.10 even if I run "update-manager -c"?
[03:25] <Chef> more specifically, is there some sort of log I can look at for update-manager?
[03:25] <bjames> Just a Bunch Of Disks, yes - I've got two drives I want to appear as one
[03:25] <Q_Continuum> eck: the problem is when I wrote the boot.img it decided it only had the free space that was available in the original boot.img device.
[03:25] <gwanky> iso
[03:25] <SilentDis> !upgrade | Chef - just trying to make sure the basics got covered with this info bit
[03:25] <gwanky> that I got off bittorrent
[03:25] <ubotu> Chef - just trying to make sure the basics got covered with this info bit: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:25] <eck> Q_Continuum: i am not sure if that will work, you can try it. the reason is that the boot.img includes a MBR and partition table (which is why it tells you that you don't have very much space available)
[03:26] <ormandj> ok, let me phrase it another way, do i have to manually edit fstab in order to have my windows disks automatically mounted?
[03:26] <Q_Continuum> eck: any way to "edit" the boot.img before I dd it then?  (Windows apps preferred) basically to "resize" the partition it creates.
[03:26] <Chef> SilentDis: thanks; I already upgraded one system just fine last week, but this one for some reason says no updates are available when I run: gksu "update-manager -c"
[03:26] <whosit> ormandj, yes
[03:26] <Chef> (same thing I did for the other system)
[03:26] <Chef> I did manage to get some security updates for 6.06 today, though...
[03:26] <ormandj> whosit: thank you. maybe they should be mounted by default in future releases :)
[03:27] <okaratas> what is ubuntu cdrom message ?
[03:27] <SilentDis> Chef, hmm...  just to be sure everything is up to date, do this:  sudo aptitude update
[03:27] <whosit> Mine was automounted.
[03:27] <whosit> what version you running?

[03:27] <whosit> dual boot?
[03:27] <ormandj> SilentDis, dude, why?
[03:27] <gwanky> Anyone ever here of something like that
[03:27] <ormandj> i'm not pasting anything, that ws okaratas
[03:27] <codecaine> how you open a image through terminal?
[03:27] <codecaine> whats the image viewer command name
[03:27] <Tom_Kun> hehe, assumed as much :p noone knows how to
[03:27] <ormandj> whosit: no, just a ubuntu install only, but there are two NTFS disks
[03:28] <okaratas> ormandj, hm okey sorry.
[03:28] <Q_Continuum> eck: I think I found a .img editor, or more than one.  I just need to increase the "size" of it so I can put the ISO on there after I dd the image on.  Then it will work fine.
[03:28] <whosit> thats why.
[03:28] <SilentDis> ormandj, sorry, dislexia and not enough nicotiene, my apologies.
[03:28] <ubm> IndyGunFreak i wouldnt trust windows on my PS3 lol
[03:28] <ormandj> silentdis: no worries
[03:28] <Chef> SilentDis: 'sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade' says 0 package to upgrade.
[03:28] <Artemis3> hm im having fun trying to build an udf disc...
[03:28] <ubuntu_no_worky> hey every1....

[03:28] <eck> Q_Continuum: yes, that would work
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: lol, me and you both
[03:28] <ormandj> whosit: what do you mean?
[03:28] <knovak> Hey all, I upgraded to Edgy the other night and when I try to run games now I get this: "Couldn't find matching GLX visual"
[03:28] <|Jason8|m|> Is there a way to load the GUI of Ubuntu when you don't have drivers for your video card?
[03:28] <whosit> You have to create a mount point for them.
[03:28] <ubuntu_no_worky> does anyone here know why the powerbutton locks up the computer but the normal shutdown works fine?
[03:28] <ubm> IndyGunFreak now if the screen through some odd kernel32 error it would have been more believable
[03:28] <Q_Continuum> eck: now just to find one that I don't have to pay to unlock that functionality ;-D
[03:28] <SilentDis> Chef, ok good.  means the list is at least up to date...  let me do some poking...
[03:29] <ormandj> whosit: yes, i know how to mount disks w/ mount and how to edit fstab, i just found it odd that ubuntu is automatically mounting them somewhere
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: perhaps if it crashed,
[03:29] <grndslm> salty:  wifi-radar doesn't seem to be working either
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: maybe the BSOD..lol
[03:29] <ubm> haha
[03:29] <ormandj> is->isn't
[03:29] <SilentDis> |Jason8|m|, you'll need to resetup x to use the VESA driver (basic vga stuff, nothing fancy).  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:29] <whosit> Yea, It never bothered me either since it is easy enough to set the up.
[03:29] <ormandj> whosit: oh well, maybe next version :)
[03:29] <Artemis3> ormandj, it would be nice to disable automounting
[03:30] <ormandj> artemis: i want automounting, it's not working for me, neither of the NTFS disks are mounting automatically
[03:30] <Artemis3> ntfs?
[03:30] <ormandj> yes...
[03:30] <Artemis3> why would you need an ntfs disk automounted? usb stick?
[03:30] <knovak> anyone know how I can fix "Couldn't find matching GLX visual"? I have the latest nvidia legacy drivers for my card, and my xorg.conf file is set up right...
[03:31] <ormandj> artemis3: usb thumbdrives
[03:31] <Artemis3> cant you simply reformat into fat?
[03:31] <sureshot> if i wanted to compile the kernel how would i go about starting that
[03:31] <eck> Q_Continuum: so you don't have root access to a linux computer? that is definitely the easiest solution
[03:31] <ubm> IndyGunFreak dude so my mom works for a voting consumer research company and she works primarily with a younger crowd and she was in the office and she goes mabye we should start using linux and all young people were like you know about linux?!?! she responded yeah its free and opensource - the old woman made me proud when i herd about it.
[03:31] <EkToBoT> window 1
[03:31] <EkToBoT> lol
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: lol
[03:31] <Pelo> sureshot,  check the forum I am sure you will find a howto
[03:32] <whosit> Ubm, its free and Xgl kicks MS's but in eye candy :)
[03:32] <SilentDis> Chef, hmm... i'm not finding anything, other than the command SHOULD be `gksu "update-manager -c"`.  outside that, I'd say pull the alt-install CD (or the DVD) for edgy and try the `gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade"` command instead
[03:32] <_`XeOn_> i liked the command sudo apt-get remove windows-vista
[03:32] <Artemis3> on the other hand the other day i saw certain usb micro hd formated as ntfs... this could become a nuisance
[03:32] <_`XeOn_> eheh
[03:32] <sureshot> Pelo thanks man just in a middle of a big project that is taking more time than i thought.. i was thinking build essentials
[03:32] <sureshot> i need the compiler
[03:33] <ubm> IndyGunFreak they need to make a distro targeted towards 'parents' like ubuntu for parents. that would be cool big flashy icons for people with poor sight.. ya know something simple..
[03:33] <Pelo> sureshot,  if you are compiling you probably will need it
[03:33] <|Jason8|m|> SilentDis, any chance you'd be free to work with me via Query?
[03:33] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone know how to automount drives... ext3?
[03:33] <Pelo> probably/ assuredly
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: I think its called Kubuntu..lol
[03:33] <ubuntu_no_worky> why doesn't ubuntu do it automagically?  will this be fixed in feisty?
[03:33] <Artemis3> oh, and ext3 too?
[03:33] <sureshot> Pelo a sense of humor i see well i need that thanks
[03:33] <arooni> hey folks
[03:33] <SilentDis> |Jason8|m|, I prefer to keep things in chat, so others can correct/read/learn/etc.  but if you insist, I am PMable :)
[03:33] <freeflyer57> hi
[03:34] <arooni> is there anyway i can get cool visual effects like vista has
[03:34] <arooni> or ox10
[03:34] <ubm> whosit dude your absolutely right the Xgl is beautiful
[03:34] <arooni> os10 on apple..... for my ubuntu?
[03:34] <Artemis3> like beryl?
[03:34] <arooni> like cool stuff for alt-tab... etc
[03:34] <S0crates> I want a stable version of Anjuta, either 1.24 or 2.1.1 Beta, but not this 2.0.2 crap.  How do I make this happen the cleanest???
[03:34] <whosit> Yea, I got it running on my laptop right now :)
[03:34] <|Jason8|m|> SilentDis: Okay.  It'd be easier to keep track of in query.
[03:34] <Errpast1> trying to install  a brother 2070 printer on Ubuntu 6.06
[03:34] <EkToBoT> use spyglass
[03:34] <arooni> EkToBoT: do i do sudo apt-get install spyglass
[03:34] <arooni> ?
[03:34] <EkToBoT> its a 3d desktop environment better than vista
[03:34] <EkToBoT> no
[03:34] <codecaine> where can I get documentation on linux api
[03:35] <cusco> before I would dpkg-reconfigure locales to chose my local charset
[03:35] <codecaine> is linux api like windows api?
[03:35] <EkToBoT> you will need to pull it off the net
[03:35] <cusco> now how do I do?
[03:35] <SilentDis> |Jason8|m|, just fyi, you do have to !register your nick on freenode to use PMs.
[03:35] <codecaine> for programming
[03:35] <|Jason8|m|> oh
[03:35] <Exershio> can somebody help me? I want to set my screen resolution at 1152x864, but all I have is 800x600, 1024x768, and 1280x1024
[03:35] <sontek> Hey, i'm trying to use virtualbox and I get this error: http://monoport.com/1926
[03:35] <sontek> anyone know what causes that?
[03:35] <`nicola> How do I configure myme types for .list files ? thanks I would like to change the default associated application
[03:35] <Chef> SilentDis: yeah...  couldn't find anything in the wikis or via google either.  I may just back up & do a fresh Edgy install...
[03:35] <ubm> IndyGunFreak i always tell people and i know at some point we have all herd this ' i dont use linux it's too difficult, i tried it and gave up.' you may have given up on linux but it will never give up on you. Windows is like rehab it's for quitters.
[03:36] <arooni> EkToBoT: having trouble finding spyglass
[03:36] <Q_Continuum> eck: correct.  No root access. (Now have laptop here next to me)
[03:36] <grndslm> Errpast1:  can you not go to System | Administration | Printers and click Add
[03:36] <aesiamun> does anyone know if there are issues with installing wine?  I get the traditional: 'package referred by others but not found' error.
[03:36] <EkToBoT> spyglass is pretty demanding should check the requirements before installing this addon for gnome
[03:36] <rbil> sontek: remove all references to wacom in your xorg.conf. I have no idea why Ubuntu decides to include input devices like that by default.
[03:36] <Pelo> aesiamun,  #winehq
[03:36] <SilentDis> Chef, that's actually what I did personally to this machine.  Feisty will be my first in place upgrade heh
[03:36] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: true statement there... i started in 2003.. mostly just distro hopping and going bak to Windows.
[03:36] <EkToBoT> look on google video
[03:36] <ubm> Exershio what video card are you using?
[03:36] <EkToBoT> i think there is a link on the video
[03:36] <aesiamun> Pelo, sorry but this is an ubuntu error, not wine

[03:37] <aesiamun> apt-get install wine fails
[03:37] <eck> Q_Continuum: I don't suppose you could just install over windows and then reinstall at a later point in time?
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> aesiamun: try SUDO apt-get install wine
[03:37] <aesiamun> ugh
[03:37] <IndyGunFreak> big difference..lol

[03:37] <ubm> IndyGunFreak yeah i did the exact same thing i think everyone does. We all just experiment at first then once we realize the huge amount of freedom you are given when you say no to the dows we stick with linux.
[03:37] <aesiamun> it's not included in the default ubuntu repo?
[03:37] <arooni> is there any way i can install a vista like visual effect add on for my ubuntu 6.10?

[03:42] <aesiamun> IndyGunFreak: wow, even Google doesn't know about gozillion
[03:42] <arooni> EkToBoT: yes but how do i get it
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> aesiamun: gozillion is a really high number....lol
[03:42] <CpuID2> grndslm, got a ppc beryl repo around?
[03:42] <knovak> rbil, yes I do
[03:42] <ubm> sontek down at the left of the screen ;)
[03:42] <amaan> which mp3 playing software supports ipod besides rthymthbox?
[03:42] <Errpast1> I'm using it as a network printer, ethernet to my local home network
[03:42] <sontek> ubm: wheres the config for it? I want to do /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:42] <aesiamun> IndyGunFreak: oooh,...i thought that was the name :)
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> aesiamun: lol.. no.. it was a reference to how many repos are out there for Ubuntu.
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> there's a list i saw the other day, that listed like 240...
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> supposedly it was all of them, but i don't know.
[03:43] <ubm> sontek its located in /etc/
[03:43] <EkToBoT> arooni: im not sure you will probably have to pull a.tar from the sun website
[03:43] <ubm> sontek one sec ill get the name of the file
[03:43] <aesiamun> IndyGunFreak: i realize there are a lot of unnoficial ones.  I just would have thought that Ubuntu would have their own wine package in one of the top three.
[03:43] <Scooty> hy,is there anyone can help me,pls?
[03:43] <EkToBoT> its all open source i think
[03:43] <shriphani> guys i am compiling fluxbox from source on dapper and it doesnt show up in the sessions list in the login screen
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> aesiamun: again, i thought it was to be truthful, but who knows.
[03:44] <ubm> sontek gdm.conf ?
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> aesiamun: but its real easy to install from the wine repo.
[03:44] <Pelo> symlinks command is   ln -s symlink   target right ?
[03:44] <rbil> knovak: what video driver u using?
[03:44] <aesiamun> IndyGunFreak: yeah i'm looking at it now.
[03:44] <arooni> grndslm: so once i add that deb link for beryl.... how do i install it
[03:44] <eck> shriphani: look at the fluxbox dpkg or build the fluxbox .deb
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> aesiamun: ok..
[03:44] <arooni> EkToBoT: im a little new to linux
[03:44] <aesiamun> stupid sling media not having a real linux port is causing me to do this...it's the only reason
[03:44] <benjoer456> indy : so do i
[03:44] <ubm> sontek /etc/gdm/gdm.conf i believe
[03:44] <shriphani> eck i got the tarball
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> aesiamun: sling media?
[03:44] <aesiamun> yeah they make the slingbox
[03:45] <Scooty> hy,is there anyone can help me,pls?
[03:45] <knovak> rbil: I am using nvidia-glx-legacy, my card is Geforce MX 4000
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> benjoer456: so do i what?..sorry you lost me
[03:45] <eck> shriphani: it will be easier for you to get the .deb source and patch it
[03:45] <EkToBoT> arooni: http://www.sun.com/software/looking_glass/
[03:45] <aesiamun> it's a box you hook up to your cable/satellite/etc and it streams to a client.
[03:45] <EkToBoT> thats the oficial homepage
[03:45] <eck> shriphani: or else read the GDM documentation
[03:45] <benjoer456> i'm new to linux too
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> aesiamun: oh ok.

[03:56] <Scooty> Pelo ?
[03:56] <tachu> sontek: i found it on /etc/X11
[03:56] <sureshot> is the syntax for build-essentials in 6.10 the same in 6.06lts
[03:56] <knovak> it is "nvidia"
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: sorry, not sure why it would say that....
[03:57] <S0crates> HOW DO I INSTALL ANJUTA 1.2.4A OR 2.1.1?  The 2.0.2 is in the main repository, and it's broken.
[03:57] <Pelo> Scooty,  what ?
[03:57] <sontek> tachu: under anything inside there? because mine isn't
[03:57] <n-iCe> isn't working
[03:57] <rbil> knovak: sorry, run out of ideas. if u have proprietary driver installed, I have no idea why it isn't rendering?
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> S0crates: what makes you think its broken?
[03:57] <ubm> grndslm what is the hardware version of the wireless card is it a broadcom or atheros based chipset?
[03:57] <sureshot> pelo what have i done to tick you off
[03:57] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak,  let me do it how you said
[03:57] <tachu> sontek: just /etc/X11/xorg.conf that's where mine was...
[03:57] <RedRose> How do i change the screen resolution for tty's?
[03:57] <knovak> hmmm, well that sucks
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: it worked fine on my laptop
[03:58] <grndslm> ubm:  INTEL!!
[03:58] <S0crates> IndyGunFreak, it's 1 year old beta software.  It crashes often.  The help menu locks up, not integrated with Glade.... etc...
[03:58] <Scooty> i've tryed whit"sudo pppoeconf" and it founds only eth0  (sorry for my english)
[03:58] <sontek> tachu: I'm not looking for the config, i'm looking for the program that configures X for you
[03:58] <shaun__> hello
[03:58] <rbil> knovak: maybe someone using that card can help you? state your question, including card you're using
[03:58] <S0crates> IndyGunFreak, sorry, I meant to say "Alpha", not beta
[03:58] <grndslm> ubm:  ipw3945
[03:58] <ubm> grndslm get over her so i can slap you lol

[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> S0crates: i have no idea.. sorry
[03:58] <S0crates> HOW DO I INSTALL ANJUTA 1.2.4A OR 2.1.1?
[03:58] <grndslm> i thought it was the easiest for everyone
[03:58] <Q_Continuum> eck: I should be able to do everything from a Ubuntu Live CD, correct? *might head to my house where I have a Live CD available*
[03:58] <grndslm> i've never had problems before
[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> S0crates: unless you ca find a place to download the source and install it that way
[03:58] <ubm> grndslm yeah seriously not about the slapping part that was a joke but intel sucks ;)
[03:58] <cables> !attitude | S0crates

[03:59] <Scooty> Pelo: i don't know how to set up my usb modem :(
[03:59] <ubm> grndslm did you install any drivers?
[03:59] <radar1976> hello, I need some help with apache
[03:59] <Pelo> Scooty,  eth0 is your network card on your computer,  that is ok , just fill in the rest , unless you have a router in with case just setup the conneciton in the router
[03:59] <Pelo> Scooty,  what is your native language ?
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> Scooty: you'll find instructions at http://www.goodluck.com
[03:59] <grndslm> ubm:  it was working until earlier today
[03:59] <ubm> grndslm that card should support scanning mode
[03:59] <radar1976> my apache is not loading vhosts correctly
[03:59] <grndslm> no doubt
[03:59] <knovak> Alright, i'm using an Nvidia Geforce MX4000, with the nvidia-glx-legacy driver. I can't run 3D games, or even glxgears. When I do, I get this error: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[03:59] <n-iCe> Rebooting brb

[03:59] <Pelo> guys, do we have a romanian channel ?
[04:00] <ubm> grndslm ifconfig eth1 down
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> i've saw 1 persson in here get a USB modem figured out... seems it be cheaper to get an ethernet card.. hell theyar elike 10bucks now.
[04:00] <ubm> take it down
[04:00] <ubm> then ifconfig eth1 up
[04:00] <ubm> is the card back up?
[04:00] <dude__> hello i need some help an aplication wont stop when told
[04:00] <S0crates> cables, I'm from the Gentoo community and am used to a wonderful community that loves to help one another.  Since I started using Ubuntu last month, I've found very little assistance, and am quite disconcerted.  Sorry if I am curt.
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> dude__: feel free to ask.
[04:00] <Pelo> Scooty,   goto  www.uibuntuforum.org and search for your modem maker and model number,  there is a good chance you'll find instructions there
[04:01] <ubm> grndslm use paste.ubuntu-nl.org/  and give me the out for iwconfig eth1
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> S0crates: its just USB modems are hard under Ubuntu...
[04:01] <Scooty> Pelo: ok,thanks a lot
[04:02] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone here know anything about automounting hard drives
[04:02] <BrendanM> Has anyone here tried using Smart package manager on Ubuntu?
[04:02] <yonilevy> going through installing some new hardware - a guide says to edit /etc/modprobe.conf. thing is, i have no /etc/modprobe.conf - only /etc/modprobe.d/* -- what should i do?
[04:02] <cables> !fstab | ubuntu_no_worky
[04:02] <ubotu> ubuntu_no_worky: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[04:03] <yonilevy> anyone knows /etc/modprobe.conf?
[04:03] <ubm> S0crates sorry to hear that mabye you should just give up and go back to gentoo unless of course you want to ask for help and be humble about it rather than comming to #ubuntu to bitch. :)
[04:04] <ubuntu_no_worky> isn't there a program that can automount?
[04:04] <knovak> Alright, i'm using an Nvidia Geforce MX4000, with the nvidia-glx-legacy driver. I can't run 3D games, or even glxgears. When I do, I get this error: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[04:04] <ubm> S0crates what is the problem your having with ubuntu?
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: we are meanies and won't help him
[04:04] <ubm> oh he left good i cant stand complainers
[04:05] <|Jason8|> Hey guys, I'm in the command line, and it says gdm is already running.  How can I restart it?
[04:05] <yonilevy> i'm using an older version of ubuntu, and i don't have /etc/modprobe.conf but only /etc/modprobe.d/* - a guide is telling me to edit /etc/modprobe.conf - what should i edit instead?
[04:05] <ice_nine> I'm having trouble mounting an iso file. I type 'sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/to/iso.iso /mnt/iso' and it gives an error: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop2
[04:05] <ice_nine> dmesg | tail shows : Unable to identify CD-ROM format.
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: yeah, he was having probs with a USB modem.. those things never seem to work, its just easier to go get an ethernet card
[04:05] <ubuntu_no_worky> !automount
[04:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:05] <eck> Q_Continuum: that is correct (sorry, i am semi-afk atm)
[04:05] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone here know how to automount drives?
[04:05] <BrendanM> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2177858   <--automounting
[04:05] <ubuntu_no_worky> thankies
[04:06] <ubm> IndyGunFreak man i ask for help to just the other week was having an issue with fluxbox and nanutils someone in here was kind enough to help me and i was grateful i waited close to an hour for a response.
[04:06] <Q_Continuum> eck: That's fine.  I'm trying the "from USB" instructions on the wiki. (I'd previously done it halfway, not editing everything.  Should work.  If not, I'll be around.)
[04:06] <aesiamun> ewll if you need a modem, an ethernet card won't work :)
[04:06] <eck> ok
[04:06] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: i know, its "i want it, and i want it now, ".. with a lot of people in here...
[04:07] <aesiamun> i come from the slackware community, there's not I want it now :)
[04:07] <|Jason8|> I'm in the command line, and it says gdm is already running.  How can I restart it?
[04:07] <|Jason8|> whoops, sorry
[04:07] <ubm> IndyGunFreak when people help one another its a really selfless thing to do time is valuable so when people freely and selfishly sacrifice there personal time to help others its a big deal well to me at least..
[04:07] <aesiamun> |Jason8|: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:07] <|Jason8|> thanks :)
[04:07] <aesiamun> np :)
[04:07] <arooni> i have a 'wireless presenter mouse 8000' its a bluetooth mouse from M$..... can i install it on ubuntu?
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: no doubt about that
[04:08] <|Jason8|> YES, I'M BACK IN A GUI!
[04:08] <BrendanM> arooni, almost certainly
[04:08] <arooni> BrendanM: i plugged it in but nothing happens ... :(
[04:08] <ubuntu_no_worky> maybe its not partitioned
[04:08] <ubuntu_no_worky> :c
[04:08] <aesiamun> arooni: type dmesg right after plugging it in, it might say something
[04:08] <ubuntu_no_worky> I dont see it in fstab
[04:08] <BrendanM> arooni, you may have to do some tinkering with your xorg.conf file as well
[04:08] <ubm> aesiamum same here man i come from slackware community as well i remember waiting several weeks back in 98 or 99 cant remember but i waited weeks to download all 5 discs and sometimes months for drivers etc..
[04:08] <Artemis3> |Jason8|,  you were better as cli
[04:09] <ubuntu_no_worky> where is the disk partitioner in edgy?
[04:09] <BrendanM> I have a wireless (not bluetooth) mouse, and I had to do a little messing
[04:09] <arooni> aesiamun: it said:  input: USB HID v1.11 Mouse [Microsoft Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000]  on usb-0000:00:1d.1-1.3
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: now there's a distro i never tried.
[04:09] <Trouty> Who wants to help an Ubuntu newbie with a X Windows problem?
[04:09] <ubm> oh and i spent years trying to figure out the directories
[04:09] <comradec> is there a way to configure the way X minizmizes windows, so they aren't "iconified"?
[04:09] <aesiamun> arooni: then it recognizes it.
[04:09] <Artemis3> ubuntu_no_worky, install gparted
[04:09] <aesiamun> arooni: what type of mouse did you have before this?
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: geez how long did you have it?...lol
[04:09] <arooni> aesiamun: but moving my mouse doesnt do anything :(
[04:09] <ubm> IndyGunFreak i really like slackware i dont use it anymore
[04:09] <BrendanM> arooni, you'll just need to add a section to xorg.conf to enable it
[04:09] <arooni> aesiamun: a regular usb notebook mouse
[04:09] <jared> could anyone help me with the step on http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-adobe-photoshop-cs2-on-ubuntu-10-steps/ which says to use recode?
[04:09] <Trouty> Well, let me rephrase: Anyone kind enough to help a newbie with an X windows problem please pm me
[04:09] <arooni> BrendanM: ok where do i find that file
[04:10] <arooni> and what do i do with it :P
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: well, my understanding is if you cna use slackware, you can use just about any distro..
[04:10] <ubm> IndyGunFreak i used slackware for about 2 years then i found out about debian :)
[04:10] <aesiamun> arooni: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf check the device section for the mouse, see if it points to /dev/input/mice
[04:10] <jared> when I put in the command it says, it tells me  recode: adobe.reg failed: Untranslatable input in step `ISO-10646-UCS-2..ANSI_X3.4-1968'
[04:10] <aesiamun> if it does, restart X and see if it works.
[04:10] <Artemis3> slackware is simple, debian is not...
[04:10] <Wolvenhaven> im trying to install ubuntu server to a server i got, on bootup do i need to chose "install to hd" or "install as LAMP" i want it to be a webserver so LAMP is what it will be, but i didnt know if i needed to do the base install and use packetmanager to get apache/mysql/php or if i should chose LAMP and get it all, does it matter either way?
[04:10] <Trouty> I hate spamming a chatroom, should I just throw my question out there?
[04:10] <aesiamun> if it doesn't point to /dev/input/mice, change it so that it does :)
[04:10] <Pelo> can I make a repo out of a folder ?
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: i've thought about tring a true debian install, but I really like ubuntu, and i'm getting to know my way around it, so i'll just stick with it.
[04:11] <atomiku> Trouty: yeah
[04:11] <aesiamun> slackware is pure beauty if you like simplicity
[04:11] <arooni> aesiamun: i cant see the mouse listed in xorg.conf
[04:11] <Artemis3> ubuntu is putting some sense back...
[04:11] <Clint-> I am having a problem whenever i try and update or install anything related to cd buring or media playing it give me a error with nero linux i am running the newest ver of ubuntu
[04:11] <aesiamun> arooni: hold on, let me check something.
[04:11] <jared> could anyone help me with the step on http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-adobe-photoshop-cs2-on-ubuntu-10-steps/ which says to use recode?
[04:11] <jared> when I put in the command it says, it tells me  recode: adobe.reg failed: Untranslatable input in step `ISO-10646-UCS-2..ANSI_X3.4-1968'
[04:11] <Trouty> I am trying to run Ubuntu live off the CD, but both Feisty Fawn Herd 5 and Edgy Eft tell me X Windows had a problem with xorg.conf, and refuses to run. It tells me "No Screens Found"
[04:11] <ubm> Artemis3 i use NSLU2/Debian for my linksys NSLU2 device
[04:11] <Z_Morek> how can I completely remove everything related to the lirc driver so I can start from scratch
[04:11] <Artemis3> thats cool
[04:12] <aesiamun> arooni: see if you can find a section called "InputDevice"
[04:12] <ubm> Artemis3 its awesome
[04:12] <arooni> aesiamun: i mean i see a section "dev/input/mice" listed but theres no Microsfot stuff
[04:12] <arooni> aesiamun: i see that!
[04:12] <aesiamun> arooni: it won't specifiy microsoft period
[04:12] <osotogari> hi all, im having trouble getting video to work in totem using Beryl. Im getting the blank video problem. Any help is much appreciated.
[04:12] <arooni> heh
[04:12] <ubm> Artemis3 you should check out http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/ he has some great photos the guy is a freaking debian monster
[04:12] <arooni> aesiamun: ok so what should i do now
[04:12] <m4n> am using 6.06. it seems the laptop battery monitor has got some bug. While the laptop is working, if I connect the power, the monitor is not updating. Still showing 'Running on battery' Status
[04:12] <aesiamun> ok, want to have some real fun to see if it works?
[04:12] <arooni> absoultely
[04:12] <jared> Anyone here have Photoshop CS2 running on Ubuntu?
[04:12] <Clint-> m4n: what laptop
[04:13] <Wolvenhaven> is there a difference between the default install and using packet manager to get apache/mysql/php or should i just install as LAMP to begin with?
[04:13] <m4n> Clint-: this is HP
[04:13] <Clint-> i had the same problem
[04:13] <m4n> Clint-: nc6400
[04:13] <Pelo> jared,  I saw an howto on digg a few days ago
[04:13] <ubm> sucks though atm im waiting on RC2 as RC1 is broke :(
[04:13] <Zambezi> K3B, Nero Linux or burning in Windows?
[04:13] <Artemis3> i suppose you can serve torrents from it...
[04:13] <Clint-> i reinstalled ubuntu and it worked the 2nd install as did my wireless
[04:13] <jared> yeah I'm looking at a how to that was on digg (got like 16 diggs though) and I can't get past the recode step
[04:13] <aesiamun> arooni: drop to the console, hold down ctrl-alt and f1, when there log in as your user and type 'cat /dev/input/mice'  after hitting enter, move the ms mouse around a little.  If you get gobblygook ,then the system recognizes it.  To get back to Gnome, hold down alt and hit F7
[04:13] <ubm> Artemis3 yeah you can so much with them its nuts i really enjoy mine
[04:13] <BrendanM> arooni, you'll need a section like this in your xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8486/
[04:13] <jared> it gives me some weird eror like "untranslatable input in step blah blah blah"
[04:14] <ubuntu_no_worky> well gparted shows it as there
[04:14] <ubm> Atemis3 oh and very low power usage 15w i think
[04:14] <ubuntu_no_worky> is there a program that can mount it?
[04:14] <aesiamun> ah, evdev?
[04:14] <m4n> Clint-: now I have another problem. I thought of removing that applet and re-adding. I removed and now I cant see that applet to re-add :(
[04:14] <BrendanM> only the section for "device" will have to match with whatever your mouse is recognized as
[04:14] <aesiamun> never had to use that proto before.
[04:14] <jared> damn lokoing through comments and there are lots of people who have errors with recode, I wonder if someone posted a fix
[04:15] <Artemis3> i rarely use a device like that, always having the case open, etc...
[04:15] <arooni> BrendanM: i see this when i insert the mouse: [17186971.432000]  input: USB HID v1.11 Mouse [Microsoft Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000]  on usb-0000:00:1d.1-1.3
[04:15] <Pelo> ubuntu_no_worky,  you can mount it manualy,  but as far as auto mount you still need a mound point
[04:15] <arooni> BrendanM: so what should i put there for 'device'
[04:15] <ubuntu_no_worky> :c
[04:15] <aesiamun> crap vmware server is having issues on feisty.
[04:15] <ubuntu_no_worky> should I just get rid of my second hard drive and use it in windows?
[04:15] <Clint-> nerolinux is killing me
[04:15] <Pelo> ubuntu_no_worky,  just make a mount point
[04:16] <gar> why
[04:16] <ubuntu_no_worky> isn't there something which can do it for me automatically?
[04:16] <Pelo> does anyone know if I can make a repo  out of a folder  ?
[04:16] <Clint-> its giving me a eror
[04:16] <Clint-> error 2
[04:16] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone know if this will be fixed in feisty?
[04:16] <Clint-> exception error

[04:17] <Trouty> I don't mean to be pokey, but did anyone catch my problem or should I try to articulate it better?
[04:18] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone know a program that will create mount points and mount your drives automatically?

[04:21] <Wolvenhaven> why do you have 3 gfx cards?!
[04:21] <Clint-> 3/4 of all progs i try and install error and update dies cause of nero
[04:21] <Clint-> i need to remove nero i think but remove erroers
[04:21] <aesiamun> ubm: three letter computer company from the 60's...
[04:21] <Trouty> windows doesn't allow dual monitors with SLI enabled so I needed a third, but the problem occurs even if I just have one graphics card in
[04:21] <Clint-> i dont know its just crap
[04:21] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone know a program that automatically mounts and creates mountpoints for your disks... surely their must be one... u can't expect n00bs to use the commandline
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_no_worky: actually i've used automatix before also, and had no problems, but you'd swear you're Satans spawn from hell sent to destroy Ubuntu Linux if you bring it up here..lol
[04:21] <Wolvenhaven> yes ubuntu
[04:21] <ubuntu_no_worky> lol
[04:21] <ubuntu_no_worky> yeah
[04:21] <Wolvenhaven> there is
[04:21] <ubuntu_no_worky> so i notice
[04:21] <Wolvenhaven> its under admin controls
[04:21] <Wolvenhaven> hd's
[04:22] <Wolvenhaven> you rightclick on the hd
[04:22] <ubm> aesiamun oh i have something for you my friend you will enjoy this its a good read check out Numenta
[04:22] <Wolvenhaven> and hit mount or something like that
[04:22] <aesiamun> Numenta
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_no_worky: it is best to learn stuff on your own though, Automatix, EasyUbuntu, etc, they are ok, but its best to learn to do crap on your own.
[04:22] <ubuntu_no_worky> where is admin controls?
[04:22] <Wolvenhaven> im not booted in ubuntu right now or i would figure out the exact way
[04:22] <BrendanM> ubuntu_no_worky, supposedly EasyUbuntu is better than Automatix
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> look at the repositories as one big stable version of automatix..lol
[04:22] <Clint-> anyone
[04:22] <Clint-> ?
[04:22] <Artemis3> automatix or automatix2?
[04:22] <ubuntu_no_worky> automatix2
[04:22] <Clint-> how to remove nerolinux compeatly
[04:22] <aesiamun> ubm: is it a book?
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: i've not had probs out of either, but unless you want a tongue lashing...
[04:23] <BrendanM> arooni, try cat /proc/input/devices  see what it reports for your mouse
[04:23] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone know where the admin tools are
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> Wolvenhaven: sorry...
[04:23] <Wolvenhaven> :P
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> good gracious i just screwed up my theme, brb.
[04:23] <Wolvenhaven> cause im looking at the install guide
[04:23] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:23] <Wolvenhaven> and nothing there talks about the difference between default and LAMP
[04:23] <Clint-> i can pastebin it
[04:23] <ubm> aesiamun i dont want to ruin the experience for you. Its a company... You really need to check it out.
[04:23] <Artemis3> IndyGunFreak, its simply unsuported and at your own risk dont blame canonical for breaking your system, etc.
[04:24] <Artemis3> hehehe
[04:24] <aesiamun> ubm: going to numenta.com
[04:24] <aesiamun> BrendanM: cat /proc/devices
[04:24] <ubm> aesiamun check out the front page
 ubuntu_no_worky: it is best to learn stuff on your own though, Automatix, EasyUbuntu, etc, they are ok, but its best to learn to do crap on your own.
 where is admin controls?
 im not booted in ubuntu right now or i would figure
 ubuntu_no_worky: it is best to learn stuff on your own though, Automatix, EasyUbuntu, etc, they are ok, but its best to learn to do crap on your own.

 im not booted in ubuntu right now or i would figure
[04:24] <Clint-> http://www.pastebin.ca/380512
[04:24] <weebit> wow im glad no one told me i was a n00b when i installed linux for the first time and went straight to the command line.  lol  I would of been screwed.
[04:24] <IndyGunFreak> Trouty: thats what i told him,
[04:24] <Clint-> if someone can look
[04:24] <Clint-> http://www.pastebin.ca/380512
[04:24] <aesiamun> ubm: lol nice
[04:24] <Clint-> nero is killing me
[04:24] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone here know of a program to set up your hard drives automatically
[04:24] <Wolvenhaven> trouty you didnt even take the whole thing
[04:24] <ubuntu_no_worky> ?
[04:24] <Artemis3> with coming festy the likes of automatix are getting less needed anyway, which is good imo
[04:25] <Wolvenhaven> i was talking about mounting a hd
[04:25] <ubuntu_no_worky> I got nerolinux working
[04:25] <ubuntu_no_worky> I had to make my own icon though
[04:25] <ubuntu_no_worky> that was a pain
[04:25] <IndyGunFreak> nerolinux?
[04:25] <Trouty> hm?
[04:25] <Chef> neurolinux?
[04:25] <Artemis3> making a .desktop file is a pain?
[04:25] <Trouty> that's weird....why did I just repeat saying that...nevermind
[04:25] <aesiamun> ubm: oooh they have downloadable software
[04:25] <BrendanM> Wolvenhaven, my understanding is that LAMP installs extra components
[04:25] <ubm> aesiamun that is every developers dream to capture the human brain and true AI ya know.
[04:25] <ubuntu_no_worky> yeah
[04:25] <Artemis3> just copy it form another one ;)
[04:25] <ubm> aesiamun yes
[04:25] <ubuntu_no_worky> there wasn't one to copy
[04:25] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_no_worky: is tha tlike Nero, the popular CD burning software
[04:25] <ubuntu_no_worky> yes
[04:25] <Wolvenhaven> so its just extra components and not a different install?
[04:25] <ubuntu_no_worky> nerolinux off nero.com
[04:26] <Artemis3> oh, there are lots of em, locate .desktop ^^
[04:26] <ubm> aesiamun check it out you can also contribute as well plus i think they are hiring atm ;)
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_no_worky: you know there's GnomeBaker and K3b, both very good CD burners in the repositories, that take about 10sec to install.
[04:26] <Wolvenhaven> thanks brendan
[04:26] <aesiamun> ubm: cool, thanks :)
[04:26] <ubuntu_no_worky> ewww
[04:26] <Wolvenhaven> if it doesnt work i can always ghost the drives :P
[04:26] <ubuntu_no_worky> gnomebaker and k3b are both unstable
[04:26] <ubuntu_no_worky> LOL
[04:26] <Dna^> hello
[04:26] <Artemis3> hehe, but that app should go into commercial
[04:26] <aesiamun> ubuntu_no_worky: nerolinux is no gift from god
[04:26] <cables> I can't stand nero, it pisses me off.
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_no_worky: ?  I'm starting to think youre unstable..lol, gnomebaker has been flawless for me
[04:27] <BrendanM> arooni, did you find it?
[04:27] <ubuntu_no_worky> i tried them
[04:27] <Clint-> http://www.pastebin.ca/380512 anyone that can help
[04:27] <Artemis3> they dont seem unstable, but brasero is quite a backstabber
[04:27] <ubuntu_no_worky> but both burned more coasters
[04:27] <ubuntu_no_worky> than cds
[04:27] <cables> I love how Ubuntu can burn an ISO just by rightclicking on it.
[04:27] <ubuntu_no_worky> nerolinux works great
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_no_worky: i believe you... i just donm't undersstand why you were havin the issue.
[04:27] <cables> And copy a CD
[04:27] <Clint-> lol
[04:27] <Artemis3> what drive?
[04:27] <BrendanM> Or I guess they left already. *sigh*
[04:27] <crdlb> they all use cdrecord
[04:27] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone here know a program to automount drives
[04:27] <Artemis3> i have lots of coasters thanks to brasero idiocy
[04:27] <ubuntu_no_worky> and mountpoints
[04:27] <aesiamun> oh well.
[04:27] <Clint-> jesus
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: what is brasero?
[04:27] <Artemis3> but in another machine it works perfectly
[04:27] <aesiamun> ubuntu_no_worky: what about autofs?
[04:27] <crdlb> !brasero
[04:27] <ubotu> brasero: CD/DVD burning application for GNOME. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.4-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 520 kB, installed size 1172 kB
[04:28] <vox754> !brasero
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> crdlb: oh ok.. thanks
[04:28] <Clint-> can someone tell me how to compleatly remove nero linux and then reinstall
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> surprising i've never used it... Gnomebaker has just always worked well for me
[04:28] <Clint-> cause even updating dont work
[04:28] <Dna^> somebody has tried to install counter-strike on ubuntu?
[04:28] <ubm> Clint- what repositories are you using?
[04:28] <BrendanM> ubuntu_no_worky, http://www.linux-consulting.com/Amd_AutoFS/autofs.html
[04:28] <Clint-> all 3
[04:28] <Clint-> universe multiverse
[04:28] <aesiamun> BrendanM: thanks...was looking for that
[04:28] <Clint-> and the other one
[04:29] <Artemis3> because gnomebaker uses cdrecord, which in turns doesnt handle multisession dvds, unless you used a patched cdrecord...
[04:29] <ubm> Clint- heh did you try forcing ?
[04:29] <aesiamun> gozillion
[04:29] <aesiamun> hehe
[04:29] <Clint-> how
[04:29] <Clint-> ?
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> Clint-: why don[t you just use gnomebaker?
[04:29] <Artemis3> instead, brasero uses growisofs which handles multisession dvds, but won't make pure udf...
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: this is true, but k3b, i'm pretty sure handles multisessions fine
[04:29] <BrendanM> he's not going to want to read it...
[04:29] <ubuntu_no_worky> YAY!!!!
[04:29] <ubuntu_no_worky> thankies
[04:29] <Artemis3> yes k3b is fine
[04:29] <Clint-> IndyGunFreak: my problem is the fact that 3/4 of the things i try to update or install fail with nero
[04:29] <Clint-> i dont like nero on linux or windows
[04:30] <aesiamun> BrendanM: autofs is fine, I use it all the time.  In fact, it took 2 seconds to enable /net for my nfs mounts
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> Clint-: i'm with you, i used a freebie off majorgeeks called DeepBurn under windows.
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> Clint-: update or install what?
[04:30] <Clint-> http://www.pastebin.ca/380512
[04:30] <Clint-> u see that
[04:30] <Clint-> that to remove
[04:30] <vox754> Artemis3, you mean it can split a DVD double layer into two single layer DVD?
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> ok.
[04:30] <ubuntu_no_worky> where do I download it at?
[04:30] <Clint-> same error
[04:30] <Clint-> when i try and say install xgine
[04:30] <Artemis3> what? no thats another matter entirely
[04:30] <arooni> hey folks.....
[04:30] <Clint-> or any program using video or audio
[04:30] <BrendanM> I'm sure it's fine, but I get the strong feeling he wants a one-click, no CLI solution
[04:31] <bruenig> !enter | Clint-
[04:31] <ubotu> Clint-: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:31] <Clint-> lol
[04:31] <aesiamun> unfortunately he's in the wrong OS for that.
[04:31] <Clint-> ty for reminding me
[04:31] <ubm> Clint- the only way possible would be to grab the dependencies and compile from source then install ..
[04:31] <Artemis3> Clint-, because apt system is blocked by that partial nero install
[04:31] <arooni> my synaptics touchpas *used* to have this cool thing that if you moved up and down to the far right of it... it'd move the page up and down
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: yep
[04:31] <arooni> is there a way of doing htis now?
[04:31] <arooni> on linux?  (versus winbloz)
[04:31] <Clint-> well should i reinstall or is there a way to fix cause this has been from day 1
[04:32] <BrendanM> ubuntu_no_worky, type "sudo apt-get install autofs"
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> Clint-: how to fix... sudo apt-get install gnomebaker
[04:32] <Clint-> will that overwrite nero
[04:32] <bruenig> nerolinux is a joke
[04:32] <cusco> dudes what is it that I must do to make gmplayer work
[04:32] <Artemis3> i think he needs to force purge the nero package before anything
[04:32] <bruenig> Clint-, seriously nerolinux is total garbage
[04:32] <cusco> it says no videooutput
[04:32] <ubm> nero is a joke period :)
[04:32] <Clint-> i know
[04:32] <Clint-> how do i get rid of it
[04:32] <TheVault> I got a question. Is there a program for ubuntu that is similar to the Mac OS X Dock?
[04:32] <Artemis3> there is a command line for it, probably with dpkg
[04:32] <Clint-> yes
[04:33] <BrendanM> TheVault, yes
[04:33] <bruenig> Clint-, was it a deb?
[04:33] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: yeah, you can try searching nero in Synaptic Package Manager, then search for Nero, and mark for complete removal
[04:33] <ubuntu_no_worky> :c do i have to recompile my kernel?  seems harder than this fstab stuff
[04:33] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i think he sourced it..
[04:33] <TheVault> BrendanM: Whats the name?
[04:33] <ubm> TheVault hey man hows that wireless card working out?
[04:33] <gar> Can I run ubuntu on my ppc?
[04:33] <Clint-> it was either defualt installed or installed when i updated
[04:33] <marx2k> yup
[04:33] <marx2k> !ppc
[04:33] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up until edgy, and is now a community port.
[04:33] <TheVault> ubm: EXCELLENT!
[04:33] <Artemis3> gar, yes
[04:33] <BrendanM> TheVault, there are actually "docks" for Linux that perform very similarly. I've never used them, but just google around
[04:33] <cables> !ppc | gar
[04:33] <ubotu> gar: please see above
[04:33] <bruenig> if he sourced it, apt would not have problems
[04:33] <ubm> TheVault good deal man!
[04:33] <bruenig> unless he checkinstalled it
[04:33] <gar> above what
[04:33] <TheVault> Yeah, but I am on my desktop now UBM, installed it here
[04:33] <vox754> Clint-, you can always "rm" (remove) all files but that is kind of creepy.
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> Wireless, thats my next challenge, i've got dual displays, up, wireless is next.
[04:34] <Clint-> brurm -rf
[04:34] <Artemis3> gar hehe just try to use something not too old
[04:34] <Clint-> err rm -rf
[04:34] <Clint-> yes
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> but i'm gonna tke a break first.. 17hrs to get dual displays, it warped my noggin
[04:34] <BrendanM> TheValve, try this: http://www.digg.com/linux_unix/Finally_A_Great_OSX_Like_Dock_For_Linux_Thanks_To_Google
[04:34] <Artemis3> no
[04:34] <Clint-> but i wanna system uninstall it
[04:34] <gar> is there a website dedicated to this sort of thing?
[04:34] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, how long have you been here? I'd say a month?
[04:34] <BrendanM> er, TheVault, not the TheValve. It's later
[04:34] <ubm> TheVault hehe just be careful linux is highly addictive and there is no cure :)
[04:34] <Artemis3> gar ppc support is official this place should do, or the forums
[04:34] <cables> gar, I assume you mean power pc not pocket pc...
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: somethin like that maybe a little longer.
[04:35] <gar> yeah powerpc
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: why do you ask?
[04:35] <TheVault> ubm: You got that right
[04:35] <bruenig> Clint-, yeah that isn't going to happen, you are just going to have to rm everything
[04:35] <gar> nooo
[04:35] <gar> I mean pocketpc
[04:35] <bruenig> Clint-, do you know where it installed?
[04:35] <Clint-> jesus
[04:35] <yonilevy> No1 knows? how come i don't have a /etc/modprobe.conf file?
[04:35] <Artemis3> gar no wait, i think they are ending it.... starting from feisty :(
[04:35] <Clint-> yes
[04:35] <ubm> TheVault now you can hang out in here with the rest of us and help people with the same issue :)
[04:35] <gar> a cell phone
[04:35] <Clint-> whereis nero
[04:35] <Clint-> shows me all
[04:35] <cables> gar, then nope.
[04:35] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, just curious. I installed Ubuntu on December, and got the wireless working on February.
[04:35] <gar> nooooo :(
[04:35] <TheVault> ubm: yuppers, but I am no professional
[04:35] <yonilevy> need help with /etc/modprobe.conf
[04:35] <ubm> Clint- try searching /usr/bin
[04:35] <bruenig> Clint-, then rm it
[04:36] <bruenig> it would probably be /usr/local/bin unless nero is stupid
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: lol... i've had Ubuntu since around Jul... but i think I first started coming here around early jan.. so its been a little over a month.
[04:36] <ubm> the sudo rm -Rf nero*
[04:36] <ubuntu_no_worky> how do I start autofs?  i installed it via synaptic but no icons?
[04:36] <Clint-> sec ill del all traces of nero
[04:36] <Artemis3> gar, until edgy you could simply install it as long as you have more than 64mb of ram (for alternate cd install)
[04:36] <gar> I've heard you can run the fedora core on it.
[04:36] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, try running "autofs" in terminal perhaps
[04:36] <ubuntu_no_worky> its a no go
[04:36] <TheVault> ubm: you on msn?
[04:36] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, yep, you are already a regular... good work!
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> gar: run FC on what?
[04:36] <ubuntu_no_worky> command not found
[04:36] <omegabeta> !ntfd
[04:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:36] <omegabeta> !ntfs
[04:37] <bruenig> Ubugtu, try au <tab> <tab>
[04:37] <Clint-> deleted
[04:37] <gar> ppc-6700 similar to this - http://shadowmite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1276
[04:37] <Clint-> in one line
[04:37] <Artemis3> 6700?
[04:37] <rpc> anyone fancy checking if this path exists on ubuntu? /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/
[04:37] <Artemis3> hmmm
[04:37] <ubm> TheVault nah not atm im about to leave my little brother's band is playing tonight promised i would show up...
[04:37] <arooni> my synaptics touchpas *used* to have this cool thing that if you moved up and down to the far right of it... it'd move the page up and down
[04:37] <vox754> Clint-, first update your database "sudo updatedb" then "sudo locate <file>" in your case "nero" or whatever specifics you have.
[04:37] <BrendanM> ubuntu_no_worky, this howto has tons of information: http://www.linux-consulting.com/Amd_AutoFS/autofs.html
[04:37] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, that was for you
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: well, 1.  I have no life... at all...lol.  2.  I broke my ankle about a week and a half ago, thus why i'ev been here close to 24hrs(and also why i was able to spend 17hrs working on dual displays w/o consequnce)
[04:37] <ubm> ill be back around beer 30 though :)
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:37] <TheVault> ubm: ahh ok...well have fun
[04:37] <BrendanM> arooni, you're back
[04:37] <arooni> also.... how do i get the equivalent of the 'kazaa lite codec pack' :P
[04:37] <ubuntu_no_worky> ugg...
[04:37] <arooni> BrendanM: yup
[04:37] <ubuntu_no_worky> surely to god someone wrote a program for noobs to set up a second harddrive
[04:38] <bruenig> !codecs | arooni
[04:38] <ubotu> arooni: 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
[04:38] <ubuntu_no_worky> will feisty fix this?
[04:38] <omegabeta> Question: Is there a way to tranfer files from ubuntu  to ntsf/xp directory's? (so drag and drop from home to sbd1)
[04:38] <BrendanM> arooni, did you get the mouse working? Also, you'll probably want qsynaptics to help you configure the touchpad
[04:38] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, it is called mount
[04:38] <rpc> come on my lazy friends... anyone who can check this path for me? /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/ does it exist?
[04:38] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, did you mention about the foot before? I kind of remember that...
[04:38] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, learn it
[04:38] <ubm> TheVault if you need some help ask IndyGunFreak hehe
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_no_worky: feisty will cause you more problems than it fixes..
[04:38] <gar> yeah, htc ppc6700
[04:38] <Artemis3> gar, that is not a powerpc
[04:38] <TheVault> Sure will ubm
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: lol
[04:38] <arooni> BrendanM: never got the mouse working
[04:38] <gar> I said pocketpc
[04:38] <gar> or that's what I meant, sorry
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: yeah, i might have in off-topic, if you're ever there.
[04:38] <BrendanM> TheVault, did you check this out: http://code.google.com/p/avant-window-navigator/  it looks to be exactly what you want.
[04:38] <ubuntu_no_worky> lol... this is why linux is never gonna make it
[04:38] <ubm> IndyGunFreak im just waiting for you're fingers to fall off from all the typing you do :P
[04:38] <Clint-> sudo updatedb hangs up
[04:39] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: lol, i'm a typin maniac
[04:39] <Artemis3> gar, ok, then no ubuntu supports x86 and x86-64 oonly
[04:39] <TheVault> BrendanM: I'll check that out now
[04:39] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, how hard is mount /dev/hdb /mount/point
[04:39] <Clint-> nvm
[04:39] <bruenig> seriously
[04:39] <ubuntu_no_worky> should this sort of thing be automatic like windows
[04:39] <BrendanM> ubuntu_no_worky, why because you have to read things to make your computer work?
[04:39] <arooni> BrendanM: once i install qsynaptics... do i use the system => settinsg => mouse
[04:39] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: i'll tell you a funny story sometime about when I was a freshman in highschool, never had a typing class, what i did to my teacher
[04:39] <vox754> !offtopic > IndyGunFreak
[04:39] <ubuntu_no_worky> well yeah.... thats why windows became popular... over dos
[04:39] <bruenig> BrendanM, we all know people hate reading, see USA
[04:39] <BrendanM> arooni, no qsynaptics is its own program.
[04:39] <ubm> IndyGunFreak yeah you are true guru ill give ya that
[04:39] <ubuntu_no_worky> people don have 999999 hours to set this stuff up
[04:39] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: of typing only
[04:39] <Clint-> vox754: okey i updated and located u want me to remove them all
[04:39] <Clint-> ?
[04:39] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, learning mount takes 2-3 min max
[04:39] <Q_Continuum> eck: So far so good.  Running slow, but running....
[04:39] <TheVault> BrendanM: Yeah, thats exactly what I was wanting, Thank you :)
[04:40] <ubuntu_no_worky> and setting up printers and burning programs and wine
[04:40] <BrendanM> TheVault, it looks so sweet it makes me wish I were running GNOME.
[04:40] <arooni> BrendanM: when i open it i see 'pleas install the synaptics touchpad driver'... how can i do this?
[04:40] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, setting up burning programs, you mean like "sudo apt-get install gnomebaker"
[04:40] <ubuntu_no_worky> and and fixing x when updates break it
[04:40] <bruenig> oh gees hard hard
[04:40] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i've suggested that like 4x
[04:40] <ubuntu_no_worky> like nerolinux because gnomebacker blows and only makes coasters
[04:40] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, wine is not a fair assault because you are running a non native program, of course there is going to be added problems
[04:40] <Clint-> vox754: okey i updated and located u want me to remove them all
[04:40] <vox754> Clint-, it takes time to update the database. You COULD try removing, but that is up to you. I've done it succesfully with small programs like ndiswrapper, but others may need dependencies, and there is where it may break.
[04:40] <bruenig> ubuntu_no_worky, nerolinux is a joke, I have used it, its functionality is nothing
[04:40] <ubm> IndyGunFreak let me know when you get that usb port installed in your head i want to know how it works out for you...  :P hahaha
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: he could install the "easy" cd burner.. sudo apt-get install k3b
[04:41] <ubuntu_no_worky> better to have something than just coasters
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> ubm: lol
[04:41] <BrendanM> arooni, there's a setting to change in xorg.conf. Lets get your USB mouse working first and then I'll help you with qsynaptics.
[04:41] <ubuntu_no_worky> k3b crashes too
[04:41] <bruenig> k3b is good, or just use cdrecord
[04:41] <bruenig> woo
[04:41] <Artemis3> what drive brand and model you have?
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu_no_worky: i don't know then, you're other linux native apps are x-cdroast(which i hate), or gnomebaker
[04:41] <arooni> BrendanM: ok ... lets focus on the USB bluetooth mouse.... we have verfied that the mouse is detected when its inserted
[04:41] <ubuntu_no_worky> asus 1608p with latest firmware
[04:41] <arooni> BrendanM: whats the next step
[04:42] <ubuntu_no_worky> anywho
[04:42] <kalorin> so I suppose it'd be too much to ask if linux actually has a GUI interface for making software raids?
[04:42] <ubm> ok.. i really got to go now
[04:42] <gar> can I use samba in active directory?
[04:42] <ubuntu_no_worky> I hope feisty automounts drives...
[04:42] <ubuntu_no_worky> it think its silly not to
[04:42] <vox754> bruenig, just a small question, do you know what is ubotu's command that tells you if there is a specific nick in the channel?
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> ubm_away: later
[04:42] <bruenig> !offtopic | ubuntu_no_worky go cry somewhere else seriously
[04:42] <ubotu> ubuntu_no_worky go cry somewhere else seriously: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:42] <Anohaakten> Hey everyone
[04:42] <bruenig> vox754, !seen whatever
[04:43] <arooni> how can list all commands i entered
[04:43] <Artemis3> ubuntu_no_worky, is it pata? is it alone in the cable?
[04:43] <bruenig> that does it for all freenode though I think
[04:43] <vox754> !seen bruenig
[04:43] <Anohaakten> Hey guys, can I get some help with installing ubuntu?
[04:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen bruenig - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> h-bomb: ubm is a good guy
[04:43] <Clint-> vox754: all are removed
[04:43] <bruenig> wha
[04:43] <vox754> bruenig, danke!
[04:43] <ubuntu_no_worky> sata
[04:43] <BrendanM> arooni, in the command-line, type "cat /proc/devices" and see if there's a reference to your USB mouse
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> Anohaakten: jus ask, if we can help, we all will
[04:43] <Artemis3> strange...
[04:43] <h-bomb> IndyGunFreak: yes he is :)
[04:43] <bruenig> perhaps they edited that out
[04:43] <Anohaakten> alrighty cool
[04:43] <vox754> Clint-, then good luck with whatever you are doing!
[04:43] <TheVault> later ubm
[04:43] <Clint-> lol
[04:43] <Clint-> lmao
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: lol
[04:44] <Anohaakten> ok, so, I installed ubuntu version 6.10 but could not seem to get it to recognize my Linksys WPC54G wireless card
[04:44] <Clint-> hrmm
[04:44] <Anohaakten> I researched all over the net and I cannot seem to find a driver for it
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless
[04:44] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:44] <arooni> BrendanM: have a look: http://pastie.caboo.se/44536
[04:44] <h-bomb> man
[04:44] <h-bomb> ill tell ya what
[04:44] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, what?! I'm always serious with what I suggest.
[04:45] <vox754> Anohaakten, WAIT, I have a link for you
[04:45] <Clint-> vox754:  ummm should i just reinstall?
[04:45] <Q_Continuum> eck: Live CD booted off the USB drive...we're doin good so far... :D
[04:45] <h-bomb> i love ubuntu, but the broadcom wireless support has got to get better
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: so am i, but sometimes, i just sense sarcasm..lol
[04:45] <kalorin> ok
[04:45] <omegabeta> Login: Panic :Trap :cpu0 "Operation illegal"
[04:45] <kalorin> opinions
[04:45] <h-bomb> its a freaking nightmare
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> h-bomb: i think i read somewhere, on a list of "goals" for feisty, one of them was to make wireless setup easier
[04:45] <dts> is there any OSS tools that come close to OneNote?
[04:45] <BrendanM> ubtunu_no_worky, I personally agree with you that all drives should always be automounted all the time (I can't imagine a time when I'd want a drive connected but not mounted?) but that's just not how Linux is, so you can either learn to deal with it, or write your own software to change it (isn't open source cool?).
[04:45] <Artemis3> they need the linux mint thingie
[04:46] <kalorin> I've got two 400gb SATA drives. I was going to mirror them in the bios, but now come to find out that's software raid and flaky at best, might as well do it in the kernel
[04:46] <Artemis3> of course you could install that package from their evil repo...
[04:46] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: you ever tried LinuxMinut?
[04:46] <IndyGunFreak> LinuxMint
[04:46] <Artemis3> yes
[04:46] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, actually I got here late, so I have little clue of what this guy is doing.
[04:46] <kalorin> is it worth doing that, or would it be better to just partition out the other drive identically and dd things every day or so?
[04:46] <kelsin> Anohaakten: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5645
[04:46] <eck> Q_Continuum: sounds promising
[04:46] <kalorin> cause then I'd get undelete so to speak
[04:46] <Artemis3> there is a gui thing that lets you use ndiswrapper windows drivers
[04:46] <h-bomb> IndyGunFreak: i hope so, cause of the inability of dapper and edgy to work with my broadcom wireless on my dell lappy is the only thing keeping me from useing ubuntu on it
[04:46] <h-bomb> :(
[04:46] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: is it pretty good?  I've heard its as good as ubuntu, jus don't have to worry about multimedia codecs, etc.
[04:46] <arooni> BrendanM: ok not sure what to do next
[04:46] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone know how to automatically install and mount extra sata hardrives?
[04:46] <rotarised> Hello all. I would like to install a true-type font (.ttf file) on my freshly installed Edgy Eft. So I tried to paste and also drag the file into the 'Fonts' folder. But the font folder's paste command is greyed. So how do I go about installing a specific font?
[04:47] <IndyGunFreak> h-bomb: if its got a broadcom chipset, it should work i think..
[04:47] <eck> ubuntu_no_worky: gnome should do that
[04:47] <vox754> Anohaakten, http://linux-wless.passys.nl/
[04:47] <Artemis3> kind of its almost ubuntu with a couple of packages and different artwork
[04:47] <Artemis3> but it seems to be moving
[04:47] <BrendanM> arooni, did you type "cat /proc/devices"
[04:47] <kalorin> rotarised: sudo cp <font> <folder>
[04:47] <ubuntu_no_worky> hahah IT SHOULD shouldn't it ^_^
[04:47] <ubuntu_no_worky> I agree
[04:47] <kalorin> then sudo fc-cache -f -V <folder it was copied to>
[04:47] <Jarhead756> i was wondering, what will happen in dapper come daylight savings time? will it auto adjust?
[04:47] <eshaase> sorry if someone had already answered my question from before as I got disconnected but heres my problem: i'm setting up a somewhat complicated partitioning scheme using lvm and vgdisplay seems to incorreclty display the correct size of my volume groups, any ideas about how I should approach this?
[04:47] <eck> ubuntu_no_worky: can you do it manually?
[04:47] <rotarised> i think i tried that before. but i'll try again
[04:47] <omegabeta> Question : I have compiled Qt from scratch, installed the libs etc and i still get errors that i dont have Qt 25.<>4 lib-mt  what does this mean?
[04:47] <kalorin> jarhead, it's complaint with the new DST
[04:47] <ubuntu_no_worky> im too stupid
[04:48] <Jarhead756> kalorin: meaning?
[04:48] <kalorin> it's already set for the new DST stuff
[04:48] <h-bomb> IndyGunFreak: it does somewhat, like it took 3 hours of tinkering and howtos and whatnot just to get it to recognize, after that its very flaky, ie, wont connect half time, have to do everything manually via cli when i was to do anything such as scan, connect, etc, also it doesnt connect at the full speeds, max is 11mbps
[04:48] <BrendanM> ok, arooni, lemme look at your pastebin
[04:48] <eck> ubuntu_no_worky: check that the kernel can see the device (with dmesg) and then use the mount command
[04:48] <arooni> BrendanM: i did, take a look at input  http://pastie.caboo.se/44536
[04:48] <kalorin> at least 6.10 is
[04:48] <h-bomb> IndyGunFreak: half the time that doesnt work and i tryed on both dapper and edgy
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> h-bomb: hmm.
[04:48] <h-bomb> indeed
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> didn't realize it was that unstable.
[04:48] <ubuntu_no_worky> I can see it in gparted and device manager(aka viewer)
[04:48] <Artemis3> but i think feisty is including another gui for wireless setups, there is a problem with people roaming from manual config to dhcp enviroments..
[04:49] <Jarhead756> kalorin: when is dst?
[04:49] <h-bomb> IndyGunFreak: its very unstable
[04:49] <kalorin> march 11th
[04:49] <ubuntu_no_worky> isn't there a program for doing this automatically though?
[04:49] <Q_Continuum> eck: partitioning.  Looks like its gonna work fine. :D  *Dances*
[04:49] <eck> Q_Continuum: excellent :-)
[04:49] <vox754> ubuntu_no_worky, the installation automatically sets mount points and creates a proper "fstab" file, so don't complain about that; if you want to add more drives that is not hard, just give me a second.
[04:49] <Jarhead756> kalorin: so will it auto adjust?
[04:49] <h-bomb> Artemis3: indeed
[04:49] <Q_Continuum> eck: Followed these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[04:49] <IndyGunFreak> h-bomb: maybe i'll put off learning wireless w/ ubuntu until Ubuntu 12.09 "Kooky Kangaroo".. :)
[04:49] <omegabeta> Question: Is there a way to tranfer files from ubuntu  to ntsf/xp directory's? (so drag and drop from home to sbd1)
[04:49] <h-bomb> IndyGunFreak: i would reccomend that
[04:49] <IndyGunFreak> i think by then they'll have it figured out.
[04:49] <h-bomb> IndyGunFreak: at least with broadcom wireless chipsets
[04:50] <Q_Continuum> eck: Now I have to find a (smaller) flash drive that is mine (not my roommate's) that I can leave this on :P
[04:50] <Artemis3> hahaha kooky?
[04:50] <h-bomb> rofl
[04:50] <Dr_willis> omegabeta,  thers ways to read/write to ntfs. (not adviseable) and windowsxp can read/write to ext2/3 partitions
[04:50] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: it was the only thing i could come up with quick
[04:50] <ubuntu_no_worky> i installed edgy with this drive in the machine :c
[04:50] <Dr_willis> with the right tools
[04:50] <Dr_willis> !ifs
[04:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ifs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:50] <Dr_willis> !ext2
[04:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ext2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:50] <Dr_willis> !ext3
[04:50] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[04:50] <Artemis3> it seems to follow the pattern just fine
[04:50] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: isn't that the truth!
[04:50] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: I'm convinced the next one is gonna be "Grump Gorrilla"
[04:50] <ubuntu_no_worky> !just work
[04:51] <IndyGunFreak> Grumpy, that is.
[04:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about just work - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:51] <ubuntu_no_worky> hahahah
[04:51] <IndyGunFreak> !justwork
[04:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about justwork - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:51] <ubuntu_no_worky> roflao
[04:51] <Dr_willis> Flacculating Fawn
[04:51] <BrendanM> ok, arooni, I think I found it.   Ive been away from Ubuntu for a while, but now im back and am trying to do an update and all the sources fail to download.  Can anybody help?
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> Goofy Gopher
[04:52] <Artemis3> ganguro girl? oh that doesnt count ;)
[04:52] <Dr_willis> Guano Girl? eww
[04:52] <tonyyarusso> !itunes | Anohaakten
[04:52] <ubotu> Anohaakten: itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[04:53] <vox754> h-bomb, look here http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/
[04:53] <Artemis3> hehe no no, that was a japanese fashion of darkening the skin and using yellow hair ^^
[04:53] <h-bomb> vox754: ok
[04:53] <vox754> Anohaakten, your version is important WPC54G v.1 2 3 4 5 6 7 there are many.
[04:53] <doff> !ping
[04:53] <ubotu> pong
[04:54] <Dr_willis> Artemis3,  that describes my wifes last trip to the beauty saloon
[04:54] <arooni> BrendanM: i did, take a look at input  http://pastie.caboo.se/44536
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:54] <arooni> BrendanM: i think we're talkin about :  Product=Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000
[04:54] <kalorin> so anyone got any thoughts on raid mirroring in the kernel or doing a dd to start and then rsyncing after that?
[04:54] <Artemis3> ^^!
[04:54] <h-bomb> vox754: hmm i wonder if that will solve all the instability issues with it and restore the speed from 11mbps to 54
[04:54] <Jarhead756> anyone try the new version of wine? any interesting updates?
[04:54] <Lazergunz> How do I set XMMS as my default media player?
[04:54] <kalorin> the rsync method obviously gives me "undelete" or sorts
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> Lazergunz: sudo apt-get install xmms
[04:55] <vox754> h-bomb, you mean, it works but not as fast?
[04:55] <IndyGunFreak> then right click(say an mp3), choose properties, permissions, an choose xmms
[04:55] <kalorin> jarhead: it almost sort of allowed me to install photoshop elements 4 the other night
[04:55] <kalorin> but crashed when it got ready to copy files to the harddisk
[04:55] <BrendanM> arooni, that looks good. One more, try "cat /proc/bus/input/devices" and look for the line that says "Handlers =" associated with your mouse
[04:55] <h-bomb> vox754: when it works, half the time it doesnt, extremely unstable
[04:55] <kalorin> so no idea if it'd work or not
[04:55] <Jarhead756> Anohaakten: you may want to take a look at songbird (just like itunes almost) but i like amarok better.
[04:55] <arooni> what is the shortcut to copy and paste from my console?
[04:55] <yeahlolgfsdf> help
[04:55] <yeahlolgfsdf> how do I use IRC?
[04:55] <Jarhead756> kalorin: got any clue about cs2?
[04:56] <eck> arooni: highlight and middle click
[04:56] <kalorin> I've heard it does that, but I don't have a copy
[04:56] <Jarhead756> yeahlolgfsdf: you're using it right now aren't you?
[04:56] <eck> also shift insert
[04:56] <kalorin> if I did I'd know
[04:56] <arooni> BrendanM: ok the one frot the mouse is: H: Handlers=kbd mouse3 event6 ts2
[04:56] <Artemis3> arooni, anything selected is already copied if you use middle button it is pasted
[04:56] <doff> arooni, ctrl+insert = ctrl+c, shift+insert = ctrl+v
[04:56] <kalorin> cause that's the one single app that I really wish more than any others ran under linux
[04:56] <yeahlolgfsdf> yeah...but I completely new to it
[04:56] <Jarhead756> kalorin: what do you mean you heard it?
[04:56] <kalorin> in fact, I have vmware installed just because of that ;(
[04:56] <kalorin> I've heard of folks having good luck with wine and cs2
[04:56] <arooni> wow
[04:56] <arooni> H: Handlers=mouse1 event5 ts1
[04:56] <kalorin> I don't own it
[04:56] <Dr_willis> yeahlolgfsdf,  thers this stuff called 'documention' :)
[04:56] <Dr_willis> !irc
[04:56] <ubotu> irc is Internet Relay Chat - Ubuntu IRC clients: xchat (http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/XChatHowto), gaim (http://help.ubuntu.com/community/GaimHowto), Konversation (http://konversation.berlios.de/docs/), irssi (console) (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi) - Also see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat and !guidelines
[04:57] <yeahlolgfsdf> right...
[04:57] <Jarhead756> anyone know for a fact if photoshop cs2 works within newest version of wine?
[04:57] <arooni> does that middle click thing work *anywhere* in linux
[04:57] <BrendanM> arooni, fantastic. so in your xorg.conf, you'll want to add the section that I gave you before, only for "Device" put mouse1
[04:57] <yeahlolgfsdf> where is that documentation
[04:57] <BrendanM> arooni, because mouse1 is one of the names Linux is using to address your mouse
[04:57] <doff> btw how can I install direct 3d wine version? wha'ts the name of the package?
[04:58] <IndyGunFreak> doff: ? direct 3d wine version
[04:58] <Artemis3> try photoshop alternatives like gimp and krita
[04:58] <doff> yes
[04:58] <kalorin> krita?
[04:58] <arooni> BrendanM: ok i made that chage.... what should i do now
[04:58] <Artemis3> yah
[04:58] <h-bomb> vox754: i also dont like how i have to manaully change the accesspoints and passphrases in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf everytime, im always going to different places with my laptop, extremely inconvient (sp)
[04:58] <IndyGunFreak> krita?
[04:58] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone here know a way to automount and automatically make mountpoints?
[04:58] <doff> IndyGunFreak, something like winex but there's no such package
[04:58] <IndyGunFreak> !krita
[04:58] <Artemis3> ...
[04:58] <ubotu> krita: a pixel-based image manipulation program for the KDE Office Suite. In component main, is optional. Version 1:1.5.2-0ubuntu2.1 (edgy), package size 2542 kB, installed size 7932 kB
[04:58] <Lazergunz> IndyGunFreak: I don't want to install XMMS, I want to set it as a default to open media files of its type. I.e .mp3 :)
[04:58] <vox754> Attention everyone, "ndiswrapper 1.38" is out now.
[04:58] <arooni> i.e. mouse still aint workin :(
[04:58] <Anohaakten> ugh, why cant linux just make it simple to install a driver...ugh
[04:58] <techie> can anybody help? How do you deal with the browser resolution. Somehow, though subtle, it seems that the screen is a bit "fuzzy" any recommended fonts or settings for the firefox browser? Thanks.
[04:58] <BrendanM> arooni, were you able to save xorg.conf? You'll want to restart the x-server, I think it's ctrl+alt+backspace, right?
[04:58] <Anohaakten> you have to do everything in terminal?
[04:59] <IndyGunFreak> Lazergunz: right click an mp3.. choose properties, then Permissions, then choose Xmms
[04:59] <yeahlolgfsdf> can someone help me install ubuntu?
[04:59] <doff> !wine
[04:59] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:59] <Artemis3> Anohaakten, its simple, you don't. If something is not supported, the manufacturer never released specs of it
[04:59] <Anohaakten> well...I need to install a driver for my wireless internet...
[04:59] <jared> yeahlolgfsdf: what do you need help with?
[05:00] <vox754> Anohaakten, did you followed the links for the wireless card? can you give more info?
[05:00] <Anohaakten> for my wpc54g
[05:00] <yeahlolgfsdf> well I have a LiveCD
[05:00] <Anohaakten> sure did vox
[05:00] <yeahlolgfsdf> of ubuntu
[05:00] <Anohaakten> its reaaaaaaaaaaaal confusing to a linux rookie
[05:00] <jared> ok
[05:00] <Anohaakten> since I do not know linux code
[05:00] <jared> have you booted off it yet?
[05:00] <vox754> ubuntu_no_worky, go to #vocx
[05:00] <yeahlolgfsdf> and I want to install it...i run it under safe graphics mode,because I can't run it in install mode because of a X server problem
[05:00] <eck> Anohaakten: if its not included with ubuntu it probably doesn't exist for your hardware
[05:00] <doff> yeahlolgfsdf,  I think everybody installed it from live cd or it's image :D
[05:00] <vox754> Anohaakten, go to #vocx
[05:00] <Anohaakten> whats there?
[05:00] <eck> Anohaakten: or else the driver is non-free and cannot be distributed
[05:00] <Glench> eck: au contraire
[05:00] <Glench> I'm having my owns et of wireless problems
[05:01] <Glench> s/owns et/own set
[05:01] <Lazergunz> IndyGunFreak: Thanks :)
[05:01] <Artemis3> Anohaakten, cannot be helped if the manufacturer doesnt cooperate, by not released specs or a driver...
[05:01] <eck> well, the point is, that any drivers that aren't in mainline are essentially unsupported
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> Lazergunz: no sweat
[05:01] <techie> any way to make user names appear on xchat sidebar next to where I am writing?
[05:02] <Lazergunz> IndyGunFreak: Perhaps you know how I can rid of an ATI driver :P ?
[05:02] <yeahlolgfsdf> can anyone help me with a x-server problem in a ubuntu installation
[05:02] <Glench> anyone know what I should blacklist under modprobe to get the usb wireless card I have to show up instead of Wired (wlan0)?
[05:02] <cerberus> Hey guys, I'm having trouble compiling a webcam driver. A number of errors occure and I've put up the output at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8489/ for anyone to look over. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[05:02] <doff> techie, well if you've installed gnome-xchat it's very old version
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> Lazergunz: can you search synaptic, say for "ATI".. and see if it shows up there?  it probably will.
[05:02] <techie> yes it is. doff what do you recommend
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> then just right click /mark for removal...
[05:02] <doff> techie, download from here http://seerofsouls.com/dists/dapper/contrib/binary-i386/
[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> Lazergunz: whats wrong with the ATI driver?
[05:03] <yeahlolgfsdf> could anyone help me with a x server problem in the gaim installation
[05:03] <doff> techie, and uninstall your current version ;)
[05:03] <yeahlolgfsdf> I nmean
[05:03] <yeahlolgfsdf> ubuntu
[05:03] <yeahlolgfsdf> sorry
[05:03] <Lazergunz> IndyGunFreak: Long story short, I dont use ATI i use Nvidia... :P
[05:03] <vox754> !pastebin > Anohaakten
[05:04] <kalorin> nothing wrong wtih my ATI support that I've seen
[05:04] <techie> doff once I download this file how do I open this> or do I do it through the synaptic package?
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> Lazergunz: yah, ::waterboy:: "Ma'ma says ATI is the Devil!:::waterboy::
[05:04] <kalorin> it' a wee bit bumpy for a first time install, after that though it seems to work just fine
[05:04] <Lazergunz> IndyGunFreak: >.<
[05:04] <doff> techie, so directly you need http://seerofsouls.com/dists/dapper/contrib/binary-i386/xchat_2.6.8-1ubuntu1_i386.deb just double click it and it will be ok)
[05:05] <IndyGunFreak> Lazergunz: it should be in Synaptic if you installed it properly, i would think anyways.
[05:05] <doff> techie, push install
[05:05] <Lazergunz> IndyGunFreak: nah it's not there =/
[05:05] <yeahlolgfsdf> could anyone help me with a X server problem in the ubuntu installation
[05:05] <Artemis3> cerberus, make sure you do a chown -R username:group to the folder with the code, and check permissions, might as well do chmod -R u+xr * inside the folder
[05:05] <Lazergunz> IndyGunFreak: It's in the applications menu though.
[05:06] <kalorin> lazerguns, set it to look around more
[05:06] <Artemis3> cerberus, other than that, check what the source depends on...
[05:06] <techie> doff, how do I uninstall the old one... meaning where do i do that... sort of new still in here!
[05:06] <Ltar> #debian_chatter
[05:06] <h-bomb> anyways, i also run ubuntu on a server at home as my monitor server, runs solid has dapper on it, i run cacti, munin, monit, smokeping, mysql

[05:06] <kalorin> specifically settings -> repositories -> 1st, 2nd, 3rd boxes checked
[05:06] <kalorin> then run an update and look again
[05:06] <doff> techie, from where did you installed it. synaptic is ok
[05:06] <ubuntu_no_worky> anyone here know how to automatically set up a ext3 sata drive without recompiling kernels or editing fstabs
[05:06] <techie> ok thanks I will try it.
[05:06] <yeahlolgfsdf> !ask
[05:07] <techie> doff which version is the one I downloaded now... do you know?
[05:07] <cerberus> Artemis3, No difference at all. The files listed as unable to find aren'
[05:07] <yeahlolgfsdf> !ask          could some help me troubleshoot with a X server problem in the ubuntu instllation
[05:07] <techie> I will go and try it now and see what happens.
[05:07] <techie> thanks.
[05:07] <techie> doff thanks.
[05:07] <doff> go)
[05:07] <BrendanM> ubuntu_no_worky, you've asked that question like 11 times now. People have given you all kinds of answers, and tried to be nice about it. Go RTFM. Seriously.
[05:07] <swanfl> anyone know where I can get help with frostwire?
[05:07] <IndyGunFreak> Lazergunz: sorry, i don't really have much of a suggestion
[05:07] <cerberus> Artemis3, No difference at all. The files listed as unable to find aren't in the directory and to be honest I can't find them anywhere, can't find anywhere to install them from either
[05:08] <Errpast1> I keep getting asked for a CUPS password
[05:08] <ubuntu_no_worky> i have
[05:08] <iRock> Hello, I am having problems with my new ATi card
[05:08] <Errpast1> I ran lppasswd, and set my username and password
[05:08] <Errpast1> CUPS is still asking me for password
[05:08] <Errpast1> root password doesn't work either
[05:09] <IndyGunFreak> oops, wrong X
[05:09] <Errpast1> How do I get past this password issue with CUPS?
[05:09] <doff> Errpast1, try admin password
[05:10] <Artemis3> cerberus, you sure is not depending in some kernel headers or something? you have the build-essential installed?
[05:10] <iRock> I just installed the VisionTek x1300, tried booting up edgy, but it sticks at the bootsplash. Strange, as Ubuntuworks flawlessly on my Intel i810 integrated card

[05:12] <kevcast> How can I delete an account in Thunderbird when there's no account settings under Tools?
[05:12] <Toma-> anyone know when ubuntu gaming arena will be back up?
[05:12] <cerberus> Artemis3, the hearder files are installed but I can't find the mentiond files anywhere
[05:12] <maarten> yeahlolgfsdf: Burn the ISO on a CD or DVD, then boot from it. Follow instructions on the screen :)
[05:12] <sureshot> kalorin was not sure that was the command and i am in such a bind at the moment thanks again
[05:12] <tonyyarusso> Can anyone recommend a slideshow/presentation tool that's lighter weight than OpenOffice.org's Impress?
[05:12] <Charly> rm -r <path>
[05:12] <Tremblor> does anyone have a minimum requirements? I want to put ubuntu on an oldish laptop
[05:12] <Artemis3> cups is the common unix printing system, something to make it easy to use printers :P
[05:12] <BrendanM> Errpast1, CUPS is a web-based printer configuration. Everyone hates it (apparently)
[05:13] <yeahlolgfsdf> yes
[05:13] <yeahlolgfsdf> I know
[05:13] <yeahlolgfsdf> but
[05:13] <kalorin> sure
[05:13] <yeahlolgfsdf> I have a problem
[05:13] <yeahlolgfsdf> with x server
[05:13] <maarten> whats that?
[05:13] <yeahlolgfsdf> during the installation
[05:13] <Artemis3> well both gnome and kde are using cups clients to it when you use the nice add printer thingie
[05:13] <covert> does anyone know where i can report feisty errors?
[05:13] <yeahlolgfsdf> Maarten could you please reply back?

[05:13] <ubotu> convert: launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[05:13] <kalorin> it's that simple
[05:13] <BrendanM> Tremblor, you might try Xubuntu. It runs really well on older hardware.
[05:13] <tonyyarusso> Tremblor: 3 GB HD, 192 MB RAM, ~500 MHz Proc would be my guess for default.  You can go lower too.
[05:13] <Errpast1> BrendanM, I'm just trying to get a brother 2070 laser printer installed
[05:13] <maarten> what is the problem? (I am a linux novice, but who knows)
[05:13] <IndyGunFreak> !xfce
[05:13] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[05:13] <Errpast1> 2 hours and no luck
[05:14] <Errpast1> took me 5 minutes with Vista
[05:14] <__mikem> How do I ad a folder to the bash shell search path?
[05:14] <IndyGunFreak> Xubuntu is awesome
[05:14] <h-bomb> lol
[05:14] <Artemis3> xubuntu is good when ram is low ;)
[05:14] <Errpast1> I hate to gripe, but that's the facts
[05:14] <yeahlolgfsdf> well how I do troubleshoot with a x server problem
[05:14] <maarten> I installed Xunbuntu on a P2, 350 Mhz with 256 Mb - it ran fairly well. (That PC was dumped though a month back)
[05:14] <IndyGunFreak> Artemis3: actually, Xubuntu is pretty good even if you have a robust system... its about as bare minimum as Ubuntu can be
[05:14] <kalorin> bash search path, edit the /etc/environment file
[05:14] <Tremblor> ram isn't my big problem, i don't need speed per say, i want to turn my old laptop into a little linux machine
[05:14] <Artemis3> (or when you rather use your ram for something else)
[05:14] <BrendanM> I'm running Xubuntu on PIII w/128 M of RAM and it flies
[05:14] <__mikem> thanks kalorin
[05:14] <kalorin> sure
[05:15] <Errpast1> IndyGunFreak, two hours later, and I can't get Brother printer to work
[05:15] <kalorin> I've got xbuntu on an athlon 3200+ w/ 1gb of ram
[05:15] <Tremblor> thanks maarten, my lappy is a bit faster than that, but not much
[05:15] <maarten> yeahlolgfsdf: what graphics card do you have?
[05:15] <Errpast1> Took me 5 minutes with Vista
[05:15] <kalorin> even with a 384meg vmware image of windows XP running it doesn't even hit swap
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> Errpast1: sorry man, i know squat about printer support/linux...
[05:15] <Errpast1> hmm, I think I'll visit www.hardashell.com, as you suggested :)
[05:15] <kalorin> with mail/web/remote desktop/vmware and so on going
[05:15] <Artemis3> its ok i have used xfce and xubuntu even on old imacs
[05:15] <badfinger> yeahlolgfsdf - in an xterm type 'sudp dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[05:15] <kalorin> even runing yahoo messenger
[05:15] <Errpast1> IndyGunFreak, that's ok, you're funny
[05:15] <Errpast1> :)
[05:15] <jared> i got a lexmark printer working on Ubuntu
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> Errpast1: but the question is, who do you blame for that?.. Linux creators/writers/programme3rs, etc.. or the Printer manufacturer, for not having Linux drivers?
[05:15] <Toma-> Errpast1: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=68403&page=2
[05:15] <jared> it took real long
[05:15] <badfinger> yeahlolgfsdf - correction. sudo
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> Errpast1: i try man, i try..
[05:16] <jared> and was annoying
[05:16] <jared> but I got it working!
[05:16] <Tremblor> the only thing i was worried about was that i have gps mapping stuff for windows on my lap that i use when going on trips, but a quick search found me some nice linux alternatives
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> this room needs a little levity sometimes
[05:16] <Errpast1> Toma-, I'll give a try.  I think I tried it already though.  thanks
[05:16] <kalorin> Errpast1, I'd love to help with it, but I simply don't print much of anything and haven't bothered to set up printing
[05:16] <yeahlolgfsdf> I'll give it a  go
[05:16] <yeahlolgfsdf> I use a ATI graphics card
[05:16] <kalorin> I'd suggest googling around for a while
[05:16] <kalorin> yeahlolgfsdf,
[05:16] <kalorin> !ati
[05:16] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:16] <kalorin> tells you exactly what to do
[05:16] <badfinger> yeahlolgfsdf - so do i.
[05:16] <cerberus> does anyone know where to find the v4l headers? google is so far turning up a blank
[05:16] <__mikem> kalorin how do I get the changes to take affect?
[05:17] <kalorin> and you have to do it twice, once for the install and then once after you boot
[05:17] <kalorin> mikem, leave X and come back in
[05:17] <__mikem> okay
[05:17] <__mikem> brb
[05:17] <IndyGunFreak> Errpast1: when you get to around 16-17hrs into configuring, then you can complain, you've barely scratched the surface at 2hrs!.. :)  I was about ready to put my head through one of my monitors earlier, ala Nightmare on Elm Street
[05:17] <maarten> I have a ATI, worked with no problem. There is a text-install option though from the boot menu I believe if X don't work
[05:17] <yeahlolgfsdf> I see
[05:17] <Errpast1> IndyGunFreak, good point.  :)
[05:17] <Artemis3> well i didnt do anything with a radeon 9600 it simply worked with the open drivers
[05:17] <IndyGunFreak> Errpast1: what kind of printer?
[05:17] <yeahlolgfsdf> could someone give me a guide on the net ,for just a general introduction to ubuntu and linux
[05:17] <DWRZ> Hey...is this the right place to ask questions for OpenOffice support? Sorry, first time using IRC
[05:18] <Toma-> Errpast1: oh ok. you will want gutenprint installed. the HL-2070N is fully supported by cups and gutenprint. should be a click-tastic install tbh.
[05:18] <Errpast1> Toma-, yes.  that is a clear link.  I followed it about an hour ago.  still no luck
[05:18] <jared> I guess you could ask about open office if you wanted
[05:18] <Errpast1> Toma-, cool.  do I apt-get install gutetnprint
[05:18] <Toma-> Errpast1: ok, well whats the issue? is it getting seen?
[05:18] <yeahlolgfsdf> just like general guide for a general users functionality
[05:18] <Charly> yeahlolgfsdf, try http://ubuntuguide.org
[05:18] <DWRZ> I'm just wondering two things...first, how to center the page (not the text, the page), second is how to add page numbers
[05:18] <maarten> yeahlolgfsdf: www.ubuntuguide.org
[05:18] <IndyGunFreak> Errpast1: probably won't hurt..lol
[05:18] <maarten> yeah that one :P
[05:18] <__mikem> kalorin, thanks
[05:19] <kalorin> or wikipedia
[05:19] <Errpast1> Toma-, yes, I see it.  But can't print a test page.
[05:19] <kalorin> mike, no sweat, was doing exactly that 4 hours ago
[05:19] <yeahlolgfsdf> thanks
[05:19] <techie> doff u there?
[05:19] <Toma-> Errpast1: any errors or just garbage getting printed?
[05:19] <kalorin> it's maddening, most other systems actually read the .bash_profile
[05:19] <jared> give me a sec DWRZ and I'll see if I can find out
[05:19] <iRock> kalorin: Okay, time to see if this will work. :)
[05:19] <doff> drivers (ati, nvidia), codecs (mp3, all windows, dvd etc.), ms fonts and other cookies go easy with this http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[05:19] <__mikem> now I have a place to put my own commands
[05:19] <kalorin> good luck irock
[05:19] <Errpast1> Toma-, nothing.
[05:19] <Errpast1> I ran
[05:19] <doff> techie, yes. how's your new xchat version?
[05:19] <DWRZ> thanks!! :)
[05:19] <kalorin> mike, I always add . and ~/bin
[05:20] <TopDogAPB1> alright guys, thanks for all the help earlier, my latest problem involves limewire, I've got all the way to where it is installed, and I'm trying to gedit a file, but I don't have permission to edit the file, and when I go to change permissions to edit, its says I'm not the owner, and I am. How do I fix this?
[05:20] <yeahlolgfsdf> do you guys type ou/C/P t the IRC screenames or is there a command
[05:20] <jared> centering the page is very easy actually
[05:20] <Errpast1> sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/cupsys /etc/init.d/cups
[05:20] <Errpast1> sudo dpkg -i brhl2070nlpr_1.1.2-3_i386.deb
[05:20] <Errpast1> sudo dpkg -i cupswrapperhl2070n_1.0.0-1_i386.deb
[05:20] <yeahlolgfsdf> out*
[05:20] <techie> doff I had to do it through the synaptic because downloadiing directly it did not work for me.
[05:20] <Errpast1> that's what I ran.
[05:20] <jared> are you in the Open Office Writer (thing thats like word)
[05:20] <jared> ?
[05:20] <DWRZ> I've googled but no luck to be honest
[05:20] <DWRZ> yep
[05:20] <techie> the new version though 2.66 is terrific
[05:20] <Toma-> yeahlolgfsdf: in xchat, type the first couple letters then hit TAB
[05:20] <Errpast1> Toma-, from the link you showed me.
[05:20] <jared> ok do you see the 3 A's?
[05:20] <kalorin> ok brains
[05:20] <DWRZ> yes
[05:20] <jared> bold underlined and italic?
[05:20] <techie> doff, it is terrific thanks.
[05:20] <jared> ok becide that there are a bunch of square with lines in them
[05:20] <sureshot> i am compileing a libcap library.. it says that lex is insufficiant .. i dl flex and installed but to no avail any thoughts
[05:20] <Toma-> Errpast1: try not to past. you dont NEED those installed tbh. it should be installed already
[05:20] <DWRZ> yep
[05:20] <jared> the one on the far left is to the left
[05:20] <kalorin> anyone know of a good program for doing canon raw -> adobe digital negative format conversions under linux?
[05:20] <jared> the one beside it is centered
[05:21] <DWRZ> yep, but that's for the text...
[05:21] <techie> doff in this new version, how do you make the people's names appear on the side
[05:21] <kalorin> well there's a windows program, I guess I could TRY to wine it
[05:21] <jared> wait
[05:21] <DWRZ> i want to center the page
[05:21] <DWRZ> ok
[05:21] <enix> can anyone here help me w/ using gimp?
[05:21] <maarten> Hey, is it better to install the ATI drivers from ATI, or are the ones that came with Ubuntu good enough for a 9700 Pro?
[05:21] <jared> oh!
[05:21] <Toma-> kalorin: convert might do it
[05:21] <jared> lol
[05:21] <techie> doff. how do you set it?
[05:21] <yeahlolgfsdf> how do I use cywgin ,could someone give me a guide?
[05:21] <DWRZ> :)
[05:21] <eck> kalorin: if there is a program that could do it, it would be imagemagick
[05:21] <kalorin> k
[05:21] <jared> uh... what exactly do you mean by "center the page"?
[05:21] <Errpast1> Toma-, sorry about paste
[05:21] <Toma-> yeahlolgfsdf: cygwin isnt ubuntu. try the cygwin channel
[05:21] <doff> techie, isn't it not on the side yet? I had it on the side just when I installed the new version
[05:21] <DWRZ> sorry to use this comparison, but in MS word the page (where the text is on) is diplayed in the center of the screen
[05:21] <Errpast1> Toma-, is gutenprint something I need to install. I will go Google it.;\
[05:22] <DWRZ> right now, the page is displayed to the left of the screen
[05:22] <techie> doff, not yet
[05:22] <doff> but I didn't see this version in synaptic
[05:22] <Toma-> Errpast1: ive removed printing from this system so i cant test it, but i think its System > Admin > Printing... then Add Printer?
[05:22] <techie> it must be set
[05:22] <yeahlolgfsdf> what's the cygwin channel?
[05:22] <Artemis3> try your games and see, the less you use the closed binaries, the better imo, Some cards have no choice.
[05:22] <jared> oh ok..
[05:22] <DWRZ> does that make sense?
[05:22] <Toma-> Errpast1: its in synaptic. easy install.
[05:22] <jared> yeah
[05:22] <Toma-> yeahlolgfsdf: im guessing #cygwin
[05:22] <sureshot> i am compileing a libcap library.. it says that lex is insufficiant .. what does this mean
[05:22] <jared> you could always minimize the window so that the page is in the center than move that to the center of your screen :P

[05:22] <TopDogAPB1> alright guys, thanks for all the help earlier, my latest problem involves limewire, I've got all the way to where it is installed, and I'm trying to gedit a file, but I don't have permission to edit the file, and when I go to change permissions to edit, its says I'm not the owner, and I am. How do I fix this?
[05:22] <doff> techie, ok one minute I'll look through config file
[05:22] <DWRZ> i guess, but i'm looking for a long term fix if it exists
[05:23] <enix> all i want to do is draw a rectangle, more like a frame, but i see no box tool
[05:23] <Errpast1> Toma-, I went the System>admin route two hours ago.  It hangs on "trying to find drivfers"
