[10:13] <I_Love_DRM> how do I make a mount persistant?
[10:13] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, you need to add an entry to /etc/fstab
[10:13] <DBO> !fstab
[10:13] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions. See also !partitions
[10:13] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: disinterested_pe click on the terminal screen
[10:13] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: type ls
[10:13] <DBO> hmmm, no link love in !fstab...
[10:13] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:14] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:14] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: if you dont see anything you type in the terminal it just mean you lost focus, just click on the terminal and it returns
[10:14] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:14] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: so when you typed tar zxvf  did that appear as you typed
[10:14] <I_Love_DRM> So just add   /dev/hda4 /home  ext3 into the end of the file
[10:15] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, put your fstab in pastebin please =)
[10:15] <disinterested_pe> yes
[10:15] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: ok good
[10:15] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: and your still in Desktop
[10:15] <DBO> !tell I_Love_DRM about pastebin
[10:15] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: just type y
[10:15] <disinterested_pe> yes
[10:16] <I_Love_DRM> Its on another PC ;(
[10:16] <disinterested_pe> y command not foumd
[10:16] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: ok now type ls again and look the for easyubuntu-3.0-beta.tar.gz
[10:16] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe:  y = yes   you dont have to type yes
[10:16] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, well, erm, yes, but there are numbers you and other such options you need in your /etc/fstab entry...
[10:16] <disinterested_pe> ok its there
[10:17] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:17] <I_Love_DRM> brb ill jump on the Ubuntu machine
[10:17] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: ok now put the mouse cursor on the e in easyubuntu left click then drag an highlight the name
[10:17] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: the whole file name
[10:17] <disinterested_pe> ok

[10:18] <linux_galore> ok now type tar zxvf  [MIDDLE CLICK MOUSE BUTTON]
[10:18] <I_Love_DRM> ok
[10:18] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: no just highlight easyubuntu-3.0-beta.tar.gz
[10:19] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: should show tar zxvf  easyubuntu-3.0-beta.tar.gz
[10:19] <I_Love_DRM> can you please tell me that pastebin site again now im on the Ubuntu box
[10:19] <disinterested_pe> ok ive got easyubuntu and easyubuntu 2006-05-20
[10:20] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: the file you downloaded should be easyubuntu-3.0-beta.tar.gz
[10:20] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:20] <disinterested_pe> h/o
[10:20] <disinterested_pe> i had that but i must have trashed it
[10:21] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: when you highlight anything in Linux with the mouse it adds that text to a special cut/past cache, its one of those lazy geek things
[10:22] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: type cd easyubuntu
[10:22] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: think you unpacked it and it removed the zip folder
[10:22] <disinterested_pe> ok ive got easy ubuntu 2.4 beta 4.tar.bz 2
[10:22] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: ok
[10:23] <disinterested_pe> how do i get it from trash to desktop again
[10:23] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: little bit different though as its a newer version of compression  ie bz2 instead of the older gz
[10:23] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: same as windows open the trash drag and drop it
[10:23] <DBO> !pastebin
[10:23] <ubotu> pastebin is probably http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/, a site for pasting long texts so you don't disrupt the channel - or install webboard in Gnome: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269
[10:23] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:24] <I_Love_DRM> OK I sent the fstab
[10:24] <disinterested_pe> now do i need to redo everything again in terminal
[10:24] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: yep
[10:24] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: type ls again
[10:24] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, did you get the pastebin site?
[10:25] <disinterested_pe> i just refreshed the terminal

[10:34] <disinterested_pe> no such file or directory
[10:34] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: nope its not
[10:34] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: type ls easy*

[10:35] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: should show everything beginning with easy
[10:35] <disinterested_pe> ok i just unpacked it
[10:35] <fyrestrtr> does anyone know of a tool that works with iptables (or shorewall) that allows you to see how much bandwidth each *client* that is connected to the firewall is using? There is one box that is both firewall, dhcp, dns and default gateway.
[10:35] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: ok cd easyubuntu
[10:35] <I_Love_DRM> You said to put the old contents of the home folder into the partition I just made, I cannot find the new partition to paste
[10:36] <kuja> I've got a friend who's entire disk is formatted as NTFS and wants to install Ubuntu. Is it possible to partition free space without messing up anything?
[10:36] <disinterested_pe> crap
[10:36] <fyrestrtr> kuja: yeah
[10:36] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, type in terminal "ls /mnt"
[10:36] <disinterested_pe> its saying no file or directory
[10:36] <fyrestrtr> kuja: the installer can do that.
[10:36] <|neo> frogzoo : my apache was installed form the apt-get and it does not open any page in the /var/www it tells allways to save the file in the disck
[10:36] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, does that show anything?
[10:36] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: dont worry might have a different name
[10:36] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: type  ls easy*
[10:36] <Frogzoo> kuja: you need to resize the ntfs partition - be sure to defrag BEFORE resizing
[10:36] <slackern> fyrestrt1: you could try 'iftop'
[10:36] <I_Love_DRM> empty
[10:37] <kuja> Frogzoo: Ah okay
[10:37] <disinterested_pe> both said no such file or directory
[10:37] <slackern> fyrestrt1: 'sudo apt-get install iftop' maybe not the prettiest of applications but it's a start :)
[10:37] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: your in the wrong place
[10:37] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, wonderful, now in terminal type "sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda4 /mnt
[10:37] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: are you still in Desktop
[10:37] <disinterested_pe> yep
[10:37] <|neo> frogzoo : my apache was installed form the apt-get and it does not open any page in the /var/www it tells allways to save the file in the disck
[10:38] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: well there is no file called easy*** in there
[10:38] <I_Love_DRM> done
[10:38] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, did it ask you for your password and did you give it your password? =)
[10:38] <disinterested_pe> it says no such file or directory]
[10:38] <slackern> fyrestrt1: 'sudo iftop -i ethx' and you'll see what hosts on that interface is using.
[10:38] <NytShade> How do I modify a configuration file? Every time I open one it's set to read only.
[10:38] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: yes because your in the wrong place you didnt put the file on the desktop
[10:38] <|neo> my apache was installed form the apt-get and it does not open any page in the /var/www it tells allways to save the file in the disck
[10:38] <I_Love_DRM> yes now theres a dir called lost+found
[10:39] <|neo> my apache was installed form the apt-get and it does not open any page in the /var/www it tells allways to save the file in the disck can any one helpme please ...
[10:39] <woggy> anyone here use pygame
[10:39] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, perfect, we are doing well, what we just did is mount your new partition
[10:39] <disinterested_pe> it says its there
[10:39] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, linux doesnt use C: or D: like windows, new partitions are mounted IN the file system.  So for a windows style translation, your D: drive is /mnt
[10:39] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: whats the files exact name
[10:39] <slackern> fyrestrt1: if you find some other nice application for let me know, would be fun to run on the router.
[10:39] <woggy> if anyone heres got pygame on ubuntu, does it have pygame.surface.Surface.copy
[10:40] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, now type this command "sudo cp -r /home/* /mnt"
[10:40] <woggy> because it seems to be 'missing' here
[10:40] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, that command will take a bit of time to complete
[10:40] <|neo> my apache was installed form the apt-get and it does not open any page in the /var/www it tells allways to save the file in the disck can any one helpme please ...
[10:40] <I_Love_DRM> Ok its done
[10:40] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: lets start at the beginning shall we
[10:41] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: ok type cd
[10:41] <disinterested_pe> easyubuntu-2.4beta4tar.bz2
[10:41] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, "ls /mnt"
[10:41] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:41] <I_Love_DRM> ftp lost+found mike
[10:41] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: disinterested_pedrop the file in your /home/username directory
[10:41] <I_Love_DRM> its a pretty fresh install
[10:42] <disinterested_pe> how?
[10:42] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, ok, good, well on our way well on our way.  Ok, now comes the part that I want to get frogzoos input on...
[10:42] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: drop the file in the /home/username/ directory
[10:42] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: click on the home icon and drag and drop
[10:42] <|neo> my apache was installed form the apt-get and it does not open any page in the /var/www it tells allways to save the file in the disck can any one helpme please ...
[10:42] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: also in the first menu it should allow you to open home
[10:42] <DBO> hey Frogzoo, for moving his home directory, you think we should boot him over to a live boot before displacing his home directory?
[10:42] <fyrestrtr> slackern: anything a bit more polished? Something like cacti, but that works at a client level?
[10:42] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, do you have a live CD?
[10:43] <t-thing> Could someone teach me howto get a url from irssi or mutt window to clipboard with keyboard? (first and last repost)
[10:43] <disinterested_pe> im not seeing home
[10:43] <slackern> fyrestrt1: hmm you don't run squid do you?
[10:43] <I_Love_DRM> somewhere...
[10:43] <gnomefreak> |neo: you can stop repeating now if someone knows they will be glad to help you
[10:43] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: dont worry
[10:43] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell |neo about apache
[10:43] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, well the right way to do this will be to dig up that live CD, you think you can do that for me?
[10:43] <fyrestrtr> slackern: nope.
[10:43] <gnomefreak> |neo: try that link in your pm
[10:43] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: now in the terminal type wget http://robotgeek.org/eu/easyubuntu-3.0-beta.tar.gz
[10:43] <disinterested_pe> is that like be happy
[10:44] <dac9cccc> Have a question about PHPmyadmin. WHat is the default username and password after a fresh install?
[10:44] <slackern> fyrestrt1: oh ok, hmm not really sure what bw monitoring apps there are out there, i was hoping for something in a console also.
[10:44] <woggy> anyone who uses pygame here
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> dac9cccc: whatever it is on your mysql database
[10:44] <slackern> fyrestrt1: i'll look around some too maybe we can find something out.
[10:44] <DBO> dac9cccc, root with no password
[10:44] <I_Love_DRM> I'll have a look -  brb  The reason im doing all this is because I thought 3GB would be enough for Ubuntu - now I've only got 100mb free and theres 105mb of updates + what I install in the future
[10:44] <dac9cccc> thanks
[10:45] <fyrestrtr> slackern: well I just need something that can either plugin to shorewall or read the information from iptables and show me in a graph which client is the majority user.
[10:45] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, erm... this wont really help that though...
[10:45] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: hit enter it should download a file
[10:45] <fyrestrtr> slackern: the same box runs openvpn, dns, dhcp & shorewall.
[10:45] <babo> grep -rn chosen-word ... this will search my harddrive for the chosen word right ?
[10:45] <disinterested_pe> ok
[10:46] <I_Love_DRM> I have about 80Mb in the /home to free + any non system items caan go there also

[10:54] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: dont do that you will get booted
[10:55] <disinterested_pe> ok sorry
[10:55] <dac9cccc> anyone know where the "www" is located
[10:56] <DBO> ... you mean for apache right?
[10:56] <DBO> /var/www
[10:56] <dac9cccc> thanks
[10:56] <_JP> i ran kubuntu 5.10 installation in the expert mode. i entered a root passwd when it was asked.
[10:56] <_JP> i can "su" fine in the konsole, but nothing happens when i type to for example "sudo nano"
[10:56] <_JP> apps like adept updater refuse to start: "su returned with an error"
[10:56] <_JP> i already asked this on #kubuntu, but i'm not getting any responde.. hopefully someone here is able to give any hints what should i do to correct this..?
[10:56] <disinterested_pe> so is some of this going to allow me to use streamlink again?
[10:56] <linux_galore> disinterested_pe: it will poke around for a few sources some will fail
[10:57] <iveqy> hi, I', have problems to mount my SD card with a extern card reader. What I remeber it had worked before...
[10:57] <disinterested_pe> i cant seem to find any suitable codecs to connect to streaming media
[10:58] <gnomefreak> _JP: enabling su disables sudo (not recommended)
[10:58] <linux_galore> anyway time for bed
[10:58] <disinterested_pe> ok ty
[10:58] <iveqy> when I try mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/misc I got the error mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist
[10:58] <dac9cccc> I cant extract or move files into the www directory. i cant drag and drop them it says i dont have permission. how can i do this?
[10:59] <disinterested_pe> i bet ubuntu is cooler than windows once u learn it
[10:59] <DBO> dac9cccc, you need to us sudo cp
[10:59] <ditso> FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-amd64-generic/misc/nd iswrapper.ko): Invalid argument
[10:59] <ditso> can someone explain this error
[10:59] <_JP> gnomefreak: so should i have left the root passwd field empty? in the "non-expert" installation mode there is no such problem.
[10:59] <ditso> FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-amd64-generic/misc/nd iswrapper.ko): Invalid argument
[10:59] <dac9cccc> sudo cp? how can i do this with drag and drop. or do i need to do it by commands?
[11:00] <gnomefreak> _JP: with expert mod eyou have to enable root and never need sudo for anything when you install ubuntu with sudo enabled su can mess up permissions
[11:00] <DBO> dac9cccc, if you want to do drag and drop do sudo nautilus, but be VERY careful with that... it gives you full access to be stupid in your file system
[11:00] <gnomefreak> s/mod eyou/mode you
[11:00] <dac9cccc> ok thanks
[11:01] <ditso> can someone explain me this error pls
[11:01] <ditso> FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-amd64-generic/misc/nd iswrapper.ko): Invalid argument
[11:02] <_JP> the problem with the "non-expert" installation mode is that it somewhy automatically installs grub on the MBR, which i don't want to
[11:02] <gnomefreak> ditso: by the looks of it you either typed the command wrong or you didnt use an argument
[11:03] <gnomefreak> _JP: you dont have to install grub on mbr it gives you a choice
[11:03] <_JP> hmm, it didn't when there was no other os installed
[11:03] <stjepan> !thunderbird
[11:03] <ubotu> thunderbird is, like, totally, a FOSS email client, capable of close cooperation with Firefox, both by the Mozilla Foundation.  To make your thunderbird links open in firefox, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=60427
[11:03] <stjepan> anyone here uses mozilla thunderbird?
[11:03] <serenity> hi
[11:04] <gnomefreak> _JP: when it looks for other os's it asks you this is what i found would you like to install grub to mbr
[11:04] <gnomefreak> stjepan: yes
[11:04] <stjepan> gnomefreak, you?
[11:04] <gnomefreak> stjepan: yes
[11:04] <stjepan> gnomefreak, is it safe to let thunderbird save passwords?
[11:04] <gnomefreak> stjepan: i let mine save mine and i never had issue
[11:05] <stjepan> gnomefreak, but is it safe?
[11:05] <gnomefreak> stjepan: that really depends on how "afraid" you are
[11:05] <stjepan> gnomefreak, does thunderbird save plain passwords in it's config files?
[11:05] <_JP> gnomefreak: yes, and if there is no other os's, it installs (at least this is what experienced earlier this morning) grub on the mbr without asking
[11:06] <gnomefreak> stjepan: i dont think thunderbird is the one saving it i think its you password thing
[11:06] <gnomefreak> _JP: i always had a choice
[11:06] <disinterested_pe> ok does anyone know how i need to connect to yahoo with gaim?
[11:06] <_JP> hmm, i guess i'll have to give it another try
[11:07] <stjepan> gnomefreak, and you think it's safe to store passwords in thunderbird?
[11:07] <untung> hi, i cannot access ubuntu shared folder from my xp, any one can help?
[11:07] <KenSentMe> stjepan: i think it's not in plaun text and doens't it use the save password mechanism as Firefox.
[11:07] <DBO> !samba
[11:07] <ubotu> rumour has it, samba is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba or http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba2/book/toc.html
[11:07] <svefi> hello, ububtu users, i am very new to linux and installed yesterday ubuntu on my notebook. Everything is working ok. But when booting the screen resolution is not seelcted properly. 1280x800 would be the correct setting. But displayed text is wrapped up from the buttom to the top of the screen. Can anybody help me with this problem?
[11:07] <DBO> read link #2 there untung
[11:07] <untung> I see the folder from xp, but i cannot log on using my user and password
[11:07] <KenSentMe> stjepan: it's nog absolutelu safe, but your passwords aren't out in the open too
[11:07] <gnomefreak> stjepan: the passwords are not being saved by thunderbird "its your password manager that saves them iirc"
[11:08] <Hoxzer> lol, finland won eurovision :D
[11:08] <DBO> untung, at the terminal (on ubuntu) enter "smbpasswd -a <yourusername>"
[11:08] <serenity> i want to switch from windows to linux, but don't know which distro i should use.
[11:08] <|neo> gnomefreak: didn't work its the same
[11:08] <stjepan> gnomefreak, and what do you recommend?
[11:08] <DBO> serenity, ubuntu is a great way to switch, and we are more than willing to help you =)
[11:08] <gnomefreak> stjepan: if your worried dont save any password to anything
[11:09] <serenity> just now, i am using a ubuntu live distro
[11:09] <gnomefreak> |neo: what were we doing?
[11:09] <devie> How can I make changes to the panel on the bottom of my screen? I really hate the way it looks by default
[11:09] <KenSentMe> serenity: what do you want to do with your distro?
[11:09] <stjepan> gnomefreak, so I must always manually type it there?
[11:09] <|neo> gnomefreak: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[11:09] <ompaul> svefi, please read the message from the channel bot ubotu
[11:09] <|neo> gnomefreak: the apache stil does not open the files it tells to download them
[11:09] <gnomefreak> |neo: ahhhhh im not sure with apache (havent played with it enough
[11:10] <gnomefreak> stjepan: if you want to be "safe" yes
[11:10] <svefi> ompaul, thanks.
[11:10] <ompaul> svefi, np
[11:10] <serenity> just normal things: easy usage. But i don't like the gnome gui
[11:10] <disinterested_pe> atleast ur not stuck with what uve got like in windows
[11:10] <lechter> devie: right click and then choose properties or preferences
[11:10] <|neo> why the how tos are always rong
[11:10] <DBO> serenity, you prefer KDE?
[11:11] <gnomefreak> stjepan: it really depends on you on wha tyou should do (the things your asking makes me think its better for you to not save any passwords)
[11:11] <devie> lechter: yeah, I was hoping for more detailed control than that
[11:11] <gnomefreak> |neo: they are not wrong
[11:11] <serenity> no, kde is also not my thing.
[11:11] <|neo> they never work....
[11:11] <serenity> between the chairs
[11:11] <lechter> devie: how do you whant it to look like?
[11:11] <gnomefreak> |neo: if none of them ever work than i dont think its the wikis
[11:12] <devie> lechter: I'd like it if the application buttons didn't stretch all the way across the screen
[11:12] <KenSentMe> |neo: did you install apache2 or apache?
[11:12] <devie> lechter: I'd like something more akin to CDE
[11:12] <gnomefreak> |neo: if one maybe 2 dont work than i can say maybe wiki is wrong but when "none" of them work it isnt normally the wiki
[11:12] <|neo> i have tryed them bowth
[11:12] <|neo> none of them works
[11:13] <devie> lechter: or, if there were just icons, more like OS X
[11:13] <serenity> it's a great, and little scaring, step to leave your old os
[11:13] <|neo> it gives this messege The requested URL /testphp.php was not found on this server. then apers the sabe as box
[11:13] <devie> lechter: I found out how to make them not stretch, that's a start
[11:13] <untung> DBO: i tried to setup use at ubuntu terminal, still cannot open the folder from my xp
[11:13] <KenSentMe> |neo: wich one did you try first and have you completely deleted the old one?
[11:14] <|neo> yes
[11:14] <DBO> untung, did you enter the command "sudo smbpasswd -a <username>"?
[11:14] <untung> DBO: my XP doesnt recognize my ubuntu username and password
[11:14] <|neo> the 1s i tryed was the 1.3.33
[11:14] <|neo> the one that has the apache as a packege name
[11:14] <KenSentMe> |neo: did you install it with apt-get install?
[11:14] <untung> DBO, no  just smbpasswd -a
[11:14] <|neo> yes
[11:15] <untung> DBO, should i be able to use my ubuntu username and password to log into shared folder from XP
[11:15] <DBO> untung, "sudo smbpasswd -a <username>" then "smbpasswd"
[11:15] <KenSentMe> |neo: it could be that when you install apache2 it uses the config files from apache (1.3). So remove the apache with sudo apt-get --purge remove apache
[11:16] <DBO> untung, your samba password is different from your normal password
[11:16] <KenSentMe> |neo: this completely removes apache and the config files
[11:16] <DBO> untung, you have to set your samba password with the commands I gave you
[11:16] <|neo> kensentme: done
[11:16] <untung> DBO, at last it works! thanks for the tips
[11:16] <KenSentMe> |neo: then install apache2 again, if you have it installed, --purge it also and reinstall it
[11:18] <|neo> kensentme: done it same problem
[11:18] <KenSentMe> |neo: can you paste your apache2.conf on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and give me the link to your paste?
[11:19] <|neo> kensentme: yes no prob

[11:37] <disinterested_pe> ok yahoo.com has a linux version of messenger is it compatible with ubuntu?
[11:37] <ompaul> gnomefreak, I had a line by line shot at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP there was one item where it failed on me, may be useful to consider this:   sudo /usr/sbin/apache2ctl start  : after the initial part where there is no .htaccess or anything going on, or tomcat for that matter, also there is a step that is a little bit confusing I am looking at it, and considering an edit, but that is the first time that I have seen a complaint about it,
[11:37] <ompaul>  it is this: Installing MYSQL (with PHP 4) just look at the headings, while it looks okay it might be more readable if we moved some of the order around

[12:05] <ferronica> gnomefreak: http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu#How_to_install_Broadband_ADSL.2FPPPoE_Client_.28RP-PPPoE.29
[12:05] <KenSentMe> |neo: i'm very curious about the package name

[12:07] <disinterested_pe> im just happy to have stream link back lol
[12:07] <ferronica> gnomefreak: i hav ADSL modem
[12:07] <ferronica> gnomefreak: i use it on phone line
[12:07] <|neo> im not shore but i think is the yaws or the roxen
[12:08] <|neo> someting
[12:08] <ompaul> ferronica, you had dsl working before?
[12:08] <gnomefreak> ferronica: and this started after you installed easylinux?
[12:08] <ferronica> gnomefreak: before that it works fine,
[12:08] <gnomefreak> ferronica: remove easylinux
[12:09] <ferronica> gnomefreak: to setup my ADSL someone given me this command---pppoeconf
[12:09] <KenSentMe> |neo: is it necessary that you install kde, or is it enough to install only webserver stuff?
[12:10] <gnomefreak> ferronica: im not understanding the issue (remove easylinux) all goes back to normal
[12:10] <|neo> kensentme: this is my laptop
[12:11] <ferronica> gnomefreak: how to remove it from where???
[12:11] <gnomefreak> ferronica: i dont know i didnt install it (check the site you got it from) i dont know how you installed it either
[12:11] <|neo> kensentme: this is the laptop that i make my works i usualy go to the school whith it because the presentations so it is neaded some X
[12:11] <KenSentMe> |neo: ah, ok. Maybe you should try installing ubuntu on your other system without desktop. So instead of hitting enter when cd install cd boots, type server. Ubuntu install with only the packages it needs to run
[12:11] <ferronica> http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu#How_to_install_Broadband_ADSL.2FPPPoE_Client_.28RP-PPPoE.29
[12:11] <gnomefreak> ferronica: when you ran make install ort checkinstall it should have told you where it saved to
[12:11] <ferronica> gnomefreak: this is the website
[12:11] <ompaul> ferronica, you had a working install, you broke it, you need to restore the original configuration, so I suggest that if you have not got it backed up you may face a reinstall, you edited files we don't know what you used to have in them
[12:12] <|neo> kensentme: i tring that on the testing computer
[12:12] <|neo> kensentme: just a pare of minits
[12:12] <ferronica> gnomefreak: so what to do
[12:12] <KenSentMe> |neo: and then tell me what you do to install the webserver
[12:13] <alek> how to find installed package in my computer? (without knowing its exact name)
[12:13] <KenSentMe> by the way, why do i sometimes get [12:12]  * gnomefreak in irc. Without anything else?
[12:13] <ferronica> ompaul: i used pppoeconf command first time to use my ADSL modem
[12:13] <|neo> i have rund the cd typed server on the boot seected the language to en the keyborad to portuguese the time zone
[12:14] <|neo> now is making the unpack
[12:14] <|neo> again
[12:14] <|neo> 1 boot
[12:14] <Neuro--> hello
[12:14] <Neuro--> i need help
[12:14] <ompaul> !helpme
[12:14] <ubotu> If you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you. :)
[12:14] <disinterested_pe> i still cant get yahoo messenger to install any help?
[12:14] <Neuro--> i use live edition....
[12:15] <Neuro--> and...i don`t know what is password for root user
[12:15] <ompaul> ferronica, you should actually try system administration networking and click on your modem from there,
[12:15] <ompaul> !root
[12:15] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[12:15] <ompaul> Neuro--, ^^^
[12:15] <|neo> neo@nebuchadnezzar:/etc$ /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[12:15] <|neo>  * Forcing reload of web server  (Apache2)...                                              httpd (pid 1727?) not running
[12:15] <ompaul> Neuro--, on the live cd there is no password sudo -i if you want a root terminal
[12:15] <|neo> lol
[12:16] <|neo> it freezed
[12:16] <ompaul> |neo, why not make it just stop and then start?
[12:16] <|neo> faild :P to start
[12:16] <KenSentMe> |neo: but you have installed apache2 already on that machine?
[12:16] <|neo> yes
[12:16] <KenSentMe> |neo: it's sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[12:16] <KenSentMe> |neo: use sudo
[12:17] <gnomefreak> ferronica: on that page you gave me open that file again and take out what you placed in there and than log off and back on
[12:17] <KenSentMe> |neo: i thought you just said that you made a clean install?
[12:17] <ferronica> gnomefreak: what
[12:17] <|neo> KenSentMe: i have more than 1 computer wen you sad to try a freesh intall i have startd to do it
[12:18] <ompaul> ferronica, you were told the same thing as I told you already,
[12:18] <KenSentMe> |neo: ah, ok
[12:18] <KenSentMe> |neo: but with sudo you can restart apache2?
[12:18] <ferronica> ompaul: OKAY
[12:18] <|neo> KenSentMe: yes yes
[12:18] <ompaul> ferronica, I have told you before about caps lock
[12:18] <ferronica> ompaul: right now i am using my ADSL modem
[12:18] <|neo> KenSentMe: i have folowed the steps of the wiki
[12:19] <ompaul> ferronica, great, then you can enjoy it, if your running slow it might be your supplier
[12:19] <|neo> KenSentMe: i must be runing crasy .... do i have to tell it again !
[12:20] <ferronica> ompaul: how to uninstall that file
[12:20] <|neo> KenSentMe: it must be some thing rong
[12:20] <ferronica> ompaul: that i downloded
[12:20] <ompaul> ferronica, I don't know what it did, so if you do not know then you should maybe consider a reinstall
[12:20] <KenSentMe> |neo: how far is your system that you installed with the server option?
[12:21] <|neo> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/apache2-default/
[12:21] <|neo> its im my localarea network
[12:21] <|neo> its one of my 4 cmputers
[12:22] <|neo> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/apache2-default/ this page it tels that is not fond on the server
[12:22] <|neo> but is in the /var/www
[12:22] <ompaul> |neo, then you have apache 2 intsalled I just used that web page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP  at the very end I just had to issue a start cos a restart did not seem to work for me but other than that it was perfect
[12:22] <disinterested_pe> when i try to install y messenger i get options marked [*]  produce alot of output - pipe it through `less' or `more' ?
[12:23] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: | less or | more the | is a pipe
[12:23] <disinterested_pe> ok how do i do this?
[12:23] <twb`> What does "Install in OEM mode" mean?
[12:23] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: what is the command?
[12:24] <ompaul> twb`, it is for places that want to send out the machines in a pre installed fashion
[12:24] <gnomefreak> twb`: please ask dapper questions in #ubuntu+1
[12:24] <twb`> gnomefreak: righto.
[12:25] <disinterested_pe> dpkg -1 ymessenger_1.0.4_1_i386.deb

[12:28] <disinterested_pe> thats what i typed is sudo dpkg -i
[12:29] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: it has to be found dpkg is installed by default and if i had to guess you really cant remove it (sure you could) but not the best idea and you will know when you try to remove it
[12:29] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: dpkg -i ymessenger_1.0.4_1_i386.deb
[12:29] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: type that in terminal

[12:35] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: stop that now
[12:36] <F0LL0W3R> gnomefreak Stop what :S
[12:36] <ompaul> F0LL0W3R, you will use /msg ubotu keyword
[12:36] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: you know whaat
[12:36] <F0LL0W3R> k
[12:36] <geniusvicks> i.e. if I write something on the screen using mouse can that be converted into text
[12:36] <F0LL0W3R> sorry
[12:36] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: every time you come in here you do same thing over and over again
[12:36] <freemanen> anyone how knows a exact link to ubuntu dapper daily build download? my browsers and dpkg dose't work so i would like to download it a make a new copy
[12:36] <F0LL0W3R> gnomefreak am just like people come to search som things
[12:36] <F0LL0W3R> :S
[12:36] <F0LL0W3R> not more gnomefreak
[12:37] <disinterested_pe> it says error processing ymessengeryada yada install cannot access archive: no such file or directory
[12:37] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: use the /msg ubotu commands
[12:37] <F0LL0W3R> gnomefreak k i got it
[12:37] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: its really more trouble than its worth why not use gaim?
[12:37] <geniusvicks> can I give an alais to a programme?
[12:37] <disinterested_pe> i cant get into any rooms from there
[12:38] <Abou> geniusvicks, you mean like alias name="program -switches"
[12:38] <ompaul> disinterested_pe, /join #NameOfRoom
[12:38] <geniusvicks> like in yahoo if I click the yahoo messenger icon firefox says "no such programme as ymsgr" or something like that
[12:38] <gnomefreak> ompaul: not from gain/yahoo
[12:39] <ompaul> who wants to use that stuff :-)
[12:39] <geniusvicks> so i was thinking if I gave an alais to GAIM as ymsgr
[12:39] <geniusvicks> then it would work
[12:39] <disinterested_pe> ok i'll try that tyvm
[12:40] <F0LL0W3R> gnomefreak could you plz then tell me how i can open Perl or Paython code with terminal ?
[12:40] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: python file.py
[12:40] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: perl file.whateverperls.is
[12:41] <F0LL0W3R> k thanks very muchhhh
[12:41] <Abou> geniusvicks, I don't know if alias is what you're searching for, you could use symbolic try something like that link, ln -s /path/to/gaim /usr/bin/ymsgr
[12:41] <leopard10> i can't download libxine-extracodecs from [sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs] ...
[12:41] <erofee> hi all
[12:42] <geniusvicks> ok
[12:42] <erofee> can anyone tell me where to find a good guide to setup gnome and KDE side by side?
[12:43] <ompaul> gnomefreak, .pl usually but it does not have to be
[12:43] <erofee> was that for me ompaul?
[12:43] <gnomefreak> ompaul: yeah i thought about that
[12:44] <erofee> sorry, my bad
[12:44] <ompaul> erofee, ehh no this is: which have you got installed first? in ubuntu the best way to do the other is >> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop << and the other is ubuntu-desktop if you installed kubuntu
[12:44] <Abou> openoffice programs don't run unless I use sudo to start them, If I click on a spreadsheet or document or try to start anyone of the programs from the menu it doesn't start, anyone knows what's causing this
[12:44] <gnomefreak> erofee: if you mean side by side as in both at same time i dont htink you can
[12:45] <ompaul> Abou, get the permissions of the file, >>ls -l filename<<  in a terminal
[12:45] <gnomefreak> Abou: are you logged in to gnome/kde as root?
[12:45] <erofee> i have kubuntu installed.
[12:45] <gnomefreak> erofee: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[12:46] <ompaul> erofee, >> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop <<  and away you go
[12:46] <erofee> so if i install it, how do i then boot from KDE to gnome?
[12:46] <gnomefreak> erofee: the login screen
[12:46] <ompaul> erofee, the window manager will allow you choose
[12:46] <gnomefreak> erofee: click sessions on the loginscreen
[12:46] <erofee> so the login screen will give me the option.
[12:46] <erofee> cool.
[12:46] <erofee> thought i might have to learn about grub files.
[12:46] <Abou> gnomefreak, gnome (but I did apt-get install ubuntu-desktop) - in fact all this happened after I installed kde next to gnome
[12:47] <ompaul> erofee, this is not perverse like some operating systems
[12:47] <Abou> ampaul, which filename you mean?
[12:47] <erofee> thanks a lot everyone, you've been a big help.
[12:47] <ompaul> Abou, the one you want to open
[12:47] <erofee> yeah, getting to learn that, switched from winxp
[12:48] <gnomefreak> Abou: did you log in as normal user or are you logged in as root?
[12:48] <disinterested_pe> ubuntu is pretty neat despite of having to learn all of the stuff about it
[12:48] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: same as windows (you have to learn it before you can use it comforably
[12:48] <ompaul> disinterested_pe, celebrate your mind being free
[12:48] <Abou> ompaul: these are the access writes: -rw-r--r--  1 root    root     13824 2006-05-20 05:56 plan_andrew_version2.xls
[12:49] <disinterested_pe> yeah im finding that out windows is more plug and play though
[12:49] <gnomefreak> most people grew up using windows so you had 10 years to learn it
[12:49] <Abou> gnomefreak: I'm logged in as a user (with sudo permission)
[12:49] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: plug and play is one of winodws biggest issues lol
[12:49] <ompaul> Abou, so your problem is this, you need to change the ownership of the file do this
[12:49] <disinterested_pe> whats the difference about if ur logged in as root or other?
[12:49] <erofee> i make a point of learning how to do one thing in linux that i used to be able to do in winxp every week.
[12:50] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: big difference
[12:50] <ompaul> Abou, sudo chown yourusername:yourusername plan_and*     <<< do that
[12:50] <disinterested_pe> yeah
[12:50] <ompaul> !tell disinterested_pe about root
[12:50] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: logging in as root is dangerous
[12:51] <Abou> ompaul, suppose I don't want to open any particular file, it doesn't work  if I start any open office program from the menu
[12:51] <disinterested_pe> and with all the patches windows has to use its really a joke
[12:51] <ompaul> disinterested_pe, its the fastest way to break your machine, if your new, and do the same if you have over 10 years knowledge
[12:51] <disinterested_pe> ok just wondering thats all
[12:51] <mikeb> but breaking stuff is the best way to learn
[12:51] <ompaul> Abou, can you start OOcalc from the command line as yourself?
[12:51] <erofee> heys guys... have a problem
[12:51] <erofee> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[12:51] <erofee>   ubuntu-desktop: Depends: evince but it is not going to be installed
[12:51] <erofee> E: Broken packages
[12:51] <erofee> erofee@yoda:~$
[12:51] <mikeb> thats why you use the development release :-P~
[12:51] <Abou> ompaul no.. only with sudo
[12:51] <ompaul> mikeb, I don't concur
[12:52] <gnomefreak> erofee: dont paste in here and type sudo apt-get -f install
[12:52] <ompaul> Abou, you seem to have a broken machine in that case
[12:52] <mikeb> you don't think that is the best way to learn?
[12:52] <gnomefreak> mikeb: no its not
[12:52] <ompaul> mikeb, no you can be more productive if you learn properly from the ground up
[12:52] <disinterested_pe> im suprised there is no linux repair places in this town too
[12:53] <Abou> ompaul, only open office,   it says "Error in function createUserSettingsDocument"
[12:53] <mikeb> ompaul, hehe, i suppose
[12:53] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: join a lug ;)
[12:53] <alek> can I build FFD linux with linuxfromscratch?
[12:53] <disinterested_pe> ok how do u do that lol
[12:53] <gnomefreak> alek: we are ubuntu not lfs
[12:54] <leopard10> how to get libxine-extracodecs?
[12:54] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: search web for a lug in your area (lug = linux user group)
[12:54] <ompaul> Abou, do this chown -R username:username .openoffice.org2
[12:54] <disinterested_pe> ok ty
[12:54] <gnomefreak> leopard10: enable multiverse and universe than sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs
[12:55] <ompaul> mikeb, now there is a case in point, if Abou had known about permissions OO would not be broken
[12:55] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: they will moore likely be inclided to have you fix it as are we
[12:55] <leopard10> gnomefreak: thx, try
[12:55] <gnomefreak> leopard10: yw
[12:55] <disinterested_pe> im wondering if since i installed easyubuntu if my dvd drive will operate now
[12:56] <wzpr> hi all :]
[12:56] <disinterested_pe> i take it ubuntu wont use nero?
[12:56] <F0LL0W3R> gnomefreak is the command for install KDE in ubuntu sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop or sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ?
[12:56] <gnomefreak> disinterested_pe: i highly doubt easyubuntu has anything to do with your dvd rom
[12:56] <ompaul> Abou, have a look at this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FilePermissions
[12:56] <wzpr> don't suppose anyone could advise on installing i386 WINE with amd64 ubuntu?
[12:56] <mikeb> ompaul, :-)
[12:56] <ompaul> !tell wzpr about chroot
[12:56] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: either i perfer aptitude for -desktops because if i need to remove it apotitude will remove it all apt-get wont
[12:57] <disinterested_pe> gnome freak it did install a new player buy idk im new to this
[12:57] <disinterested_pe> but
[12:57] <F0LL0W3R> gnomefreak gr8888 thnx
[12:57] <blue-frog> disinterested_pe, if you have purchased nero for widows you can download nero for linux
[12:57] <Abou> ompaul, that was it! cheers..
[12:57] <gnomefreak> blue-frog: its free than?
[12:57] <disinterested_pe> is it next to impossible to install?
[12:57] <blue-frog> it's free if you have purchased nero for windows
[12:58] <ompaul> Abou, have you many files you use with OOo
[12:58] <gnomefreak> sweet ;)
[12:58] <blue-frog> but k3b will certainly work better than nero for linux..
[12:58] <F0LL0W3R> gnomefreak and if i want reset it again to Gnome use sudo aptitude gnome-desktop right ?
[12:58] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: no
[12:59] <gnomefreak> F0LL0W3R: choose what you want to log into on the login screen
[12:59] <F0LL0W3R> aha
[12:59] <F0LL0W3R> WonderFul !
[12:59] <mikeb> gnomefreak, i thought you would've been a gnomebaker kinda guy
[12:59] <gnomefreak> mikeb: nope didnt like it ata ll
[12:59] <ompaul> Abou, your going to have to give them the right permissions to be opened
[12:59] <disinterested_pe> so is there any spyware programs for linux that work?
[12:59] <blue-frog> no
[12:59] <mikeb> disinterested_pe, there is no spyware on linux
[12:59] <lerch> Hi, I have a question concerning the appearance of some application windows in gnome, do I direct that here?
[01:00] <Abou> ompaul, I understand what permissions are, it was only figuring out why oo needed root permissions, I think what happened is I used oo the first time to access some file owned by root,so I used sudo, and so oo created the .openoffice.org2 with root as owner and no access rights to others...
[01:00] <gnomefreak> brb
[01:00] <disinterested_pe> ok
[01:00] <ompaul> Abou, that would be it
[01:00] <disinterested_pe> i bet theres viruses though
[01:00] <Abou> ompaul, thanks
[01:00] <ompaul> disinterested_pe, no
[01:00] <mikeb> disinterested_pe, i havn't seen any, nor have i been infected
[01:00] <blue-frog> disinterested_pe, not yet
[01:00] <disinterested_pe> so does fire fox block that stuff?
[01:01] <wzpr> another quick question; how dangerous is it to run ubuntu under root rather than a regular user running sudo ?
[01:01] <mikeb> disinterested_pe, there is nothing to block.... linux doesn't work like doze
[01:01] <ompaul> disinterested_pe, there was one for redhat a few years ago but nothing for ubuntu - and no its not firefoxes job, please read www.securityfocus.com and search for "linux virus" its a different paradigim
[01:01] <joedj> wzpr: running as root all the time is quite dangerous
[01:01] <Abou> wzpr, it can make your errors .. system wide
[01:01] <mikeb> wzpr, if you don't know what your doing... yah
[01:01] <ompaul> Abou /me rofl :-)
[01:01] <disinterested_pe> thx ompaul
[01:01] <joedj> wzpr: switching to root when you need to do an administrative task or using sudo is pretty much the same
[01:02] <Abou> ompaul, what's that? (Abou /me rofl :-)
[01:02] <blue-frog> disinterested_pe, you have rootkits but unless you run funky programs you don't know downloaded from unknown places, linux box is pretty much safe
[01:02] <disinterested_pe> so basically if u mess ur pc up its all ur own fault
[01:02] <ompaul> joedj, its not, switching to root means you do everything as root while it is open - not a good call
[01:02] <LoPMX> hi
[01:02] <ompaul> joedj, cd etc
[01:03] <LoPMX> can i get quicktime movies played in ubuntu?
[01:03] <ompaul> Abou, ehh your telling him, given our chat :-)
[01:03] <ompaul> Abou, rofl roll over floor laughing
[01:03] <lerch> Some windows in gnome, like the "jump to file" window in xmms, doesn't seam to fully inherit the appearance settings adjusted through the theme manager, any idea why?
[01:03] <HunterZ> hi
[01:04] <masked> anyone had a problem with gxine not finding cook.so.6?
[01:04] <blue-frog> wzpr runnning linux as root is as a bad idea as running windows as administrator
[01:04] <masked> if so anyone know why and how to fix it?
[01:04] <wzpr> really? I run windows as admin on my other PC but not root on here
[01:04] <disinterested_pe> so whats going to be different in the new release in ububtu?
[01:04] <joedj> ompaul: i'm not referring to user error so much as program vulnerabilities
[01:04] <leopard10> HunterZ: try mplayer
[01:04] <disinterested_pe> ubuntu
[01:05] <joedj> ompaul: e.g. running your IRC client/browser as root
[01:05] <masked> leopard10, you mean me?
[01:05] <Abou> ompaul, I have some (basic) unix knowledge, i only need help running the new applications ... :-)
[01:05] <masked> im downloading mplayer as we speak
[01:05] <masked> gxine, vlc and totem are having problems playing dvds
[01:05] <masked> i hope mplayer works
[01:06] <leopard10> masked: i'm talk to HunterZ.. :)
[01:06] <Abou> ompaul, in answering the questions I know, I feel I pay back for the help I get ;-0
[01:06] <disinterested_pe> so where are most of us?
[01:06] <ompaul> joedj, as we deal with a lot of converts we tend to point people to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo as it explains the logic of sudo and how to use it, :-)
[01:06] <HunterZ> leopard10 why i try mplayer?
[01:06] <Phlosten> masked, what problems?
[01:07] <ompaul> disinterested_pe, this is not your average chat room, its ubuntu help if you want to chat we have such a channel, #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:07] <masked> Phlosten, gets to the language selection screen for the dvd then carks it
[01:07] <leopard10> HunterZ: mplayer can play .mov
[01:07] <disinterested_pe> well guys and gals i need sleep ty for the info
[01:07] <ompaul> Abou, crystal clear ... ;-)
[01:09] <masked> Phlosten, mplayer doesn't work either
[01:10] <joedj> ompaul: yeah, it would be nice if that page also mentioned the type of issues i'm talking about as another reason to use sudo. perhaps when i'm not so lazy i will update it =P
[01:10] <masked> its definatly distro specific it worked fine when i compiled gnu/linux from source.
[01:10] <gnomefreak> blue-frog: for nero4linux i want the trial version (does it ask for keycode) or is there a different download?
[01:10] <blue-frog> I don't know am not using nero
[01:10] <joedj> ompaul: or rather, as another reason not to run programs as root unless necessary
[01:10] <gnomefreak> ok ty
[01:11] <Abou> gnomefreak, what do we usually use for cd writting in ubuntu?
[01:12] <gnomefreak> Abou: i use k3b
[01:12] <gnomefreak> im gonna need wine :( forget it its not worth it :(
[01:12] <lerch> can I get Gaim/irc specific information in here?
[01:12] <Phlosten> masked, is it a commercial dvd?
[01:13] <masked> Phlosten, yes.
[01:13] <bony> hi all just now i configured my keyboard shortcut's and i assigned ctl+up for volume up and down for volume down but i even assigned left and right to play and pause respectively. After playing for some time i resumed my work which i was doing in screem and found that left and right key's are not working even while typeing this text i couldn't move either right nor left. please help me cause this will ruin my life if it continues like this
[01:13] <bony>  i am using gnome 2.14 and the os is dapper drake
[01:13] <bony> i disabled the left and right key assignments even then i am unable to use them
[01:13] <Phlosten> masked, I am guessing you have installed neccessary css decryption codecs?
[01:13] <bony>  what i can do with left and right arrow key's is to switch between virtual desktops that's it
[01:13] <masked> Phlosten, yes
[01:14] <pvd2006> how can you resize a partition in linux?
[01:14] <ompaul> bony, please go to #ubuntu+1 for conversations about dapper as it is the channel for alpha and beta software
[01:14] <joedj> pvd2006: GNU parted can do it for some filesystem types, IIRC
[01:14] <masked> Phlosten, it plays the Universal theme intro, goes to language selection then stops.
[01:14] <bony> ompaul, oo thanks for suggesion
[01:14] <Abou> pvd2006, try parted
[01:15] <Phlosten> masked, very odd
[01:15] <ompaul> bony, yw
[01:15] <pvd2006> alright parted it is
[01:15] <masked> Phlosten, do you know what cook.so.6 is for?
[01:15] <gnomefreak> there is a .deb ;)
[01:15] <Phlosten> masked, not sure, have you tried starting it from the command line to get an error code?
[01:16] <jpjacobs> masked: maybe try installing  libdvdcss.
[01:16] <masked> gxine asks for it and dvr3.so.6
[01:16] <masked> jpjacobs, already have
[01:16] <lerch> How do I automatically join this channel when I log on IRC? I use Gaim.
[01:17] <zeeble> hello
[01:17] <jpjacobs> lerch: add a chat into your buddylist , this channel, then right click on it, there should be a autojoin option.
[01:17] <ompaul> lerch, depends on what client your using, as there are sevearl
[01:17] <masked> jpjacobs, well libdvdread that was
[01:17] <masked> jpjacobs, will that suffice?
[01:17] <ompaul> ohh
[01:17] <gnomefreak> ompaul: he said gaim
[01:17] <gnomefreak> lol
[01:17] <thomas> Hello
[01:17] <ompaul> gnomefreak, D'oh!^4
[01:18] <gnomefreak> ;)
[01:18] <thomas> Hello
[01:18] <ompaul> thomas, be happy if you don't get 700 replies :-)
[01:18] <thomas> Hallo everybery
[01:18] <pvd2006> alright, I have a 2nd hard disk which is 120gigs that has no os installed on it, instead I am using it for a backup drive so if I want to resize it to put 10gigs at the end of it I just resize the current partition to -10gigs right?
[01:18] <jpjacobs> masked: dunno, but i needed  libdvdcss in order to get subtitles working. It's something to read encrypted DVD's I thought that perhaps that's your case
[01:18] <thomas> I like pizza
[01:19] <thomas> Hallo
[01:19] <gnomefreak> !dvd
[01:19] <ubotu> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)
[01:19] <masked> jpjacobs, libdvdread is supposed to do that
[01:19] <masked> Phlosten, *** libdvdread: CHECK_VALUE failed in ifo_read.c:928 ***
[01:19] <masked> *** for vts_ptt_srpt->nr_of_srpts < 100 ***
[01:19] <masked> libdvdnav: ifoRead_VTS_PTT_SRPT failed
[01:19] <ompaul> thomas, no ubuntu questions?
[01:19] <zeeble> thomas: everyone likes pizza. how is it relevant?
[01:19] <gnomefreak> libdvdcss is to read them
[01:19] <thomas> What`s you homepage
[01:19] <thomas> ?
[01:19] <masked> gnomefreak, thanks
[01:19] <gnomefreak> nope sorry css is for encryption
[01:19] <jpjacobs> thomas apt-get order pizza ;)
[01:20] <gnomefreak> dvdread reads them but i suggest you get both you will need them both im sure
[01:21] <lerch> jpjacobs: thanks for the reply. I already added a chat to the autojoin, namely irc.freenode.org which it autojoins just fine, I'll try adding the channel aswell.
[01:23] <saftsack> hi
[01:24] <saftsack> i heard that there is a release every 6 months. are there software updates with apt-get between this releases?
[01:24] <pvd2006> well I guess trying to run parted on a NTFS based hard drive is pointless?
[01:24] <masked> gnomefreak, still doesn't work.
[01:24] <gnomefreak> masked: what are you trying to do watch a dvd?
[01:24] <masked> yep
[01:25] <gnomefreak> masked: did you use the region set command?
[01:25] <masked> no
[01:25] <gnomefreak> !restricted
[01:25] <ubotu> somebody said restricted was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[01:25] <masked> i installed the tool
[01:25] <joedj> saftsack: there are, they seem to be fairly limited though. i'm not sure what the policy is - maybe just security updates
[01:25] <gnomefreak> masked: go there and read the dvd part
[01:25] <masked> but its aleady set to the right region
[01:25] <masked> so i didin't bother changing it
[01:25] <masked> gnomefreak, already have read it.
[01:25] <joedj> saftsack: e.g. Breezy still has ruby 1.8.3, which is widely accepted as unacceptable quality
[01:26] <tin_nqn> hello
[01:27] <saftsack> ok because i heard that there is xgl in ubuntu
[01:27] <Subhuman> saftsack, in dapper there is.
[01:27] <tin_nqn> How could I know a list of websites hosted by a determined host server?
[01:28] <Subhuman> saftsack, join #ubuntu+1 to discuss dapper.
[01:28] <joedj> tin_nqn: email the webmaster politely =P
[01:28] <Eons> does anybody knows how to set up a konica minolta magicolor 2300w printer with m2300w drivers?
[01:28] <saftsack> Subhuman, ok but in ubuntu there isnt apt-get dist-upgrade?
[01:28] <tin_nqn> ok.. this is a good answer. There is another one?
[01:28] <joedj> saftsack: there is
[01:28] <Subhuman> yes there is.
[01:28] <tin_nqn> may be whois by dns ... I don't know
[01:28] <jpjacobs> exoduz: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/home-router-howto.xml
[01:28] <saftsack> ok so there are new versions every day?
[01:29] <Eons> 'cause gnome-cups-manager won't use that driver and it will default to foo2zjs driver
[01:29] <Subhuman> not of dapper no, still best asking in #ubuntu+1
[01:29] <Subhuman> anyway i gotta go for a bit
[01:29] <joedj> tin_nqn: doubt it
[01:29] <taw> hello :-)
[01:30] <taw> are the 357 updates it's talking about updates to dapper or to unstable ?
[01:30] <gnomefreak> taw: dapper channel is #ubuntu+1
[01:30] <jpjacobs> sorry wrong channel
[01:30] <gnomefreak> taw: dapper and unstable for ubuntu are the same atm
[01:31] <taw> so you don't freeze testing like debian ?
[01:31] <alovei> hi
[01:31] <taw> ok :-)
[01:31] <gnomefreak> taw: the freezes atm are only on devel cersions of ubuntu (dapper)
[01:31] <gnomefreak> s/cersions/versions
[01:32] <pvd2006> alright I am using qtparted and i am trying to resize a  ntfs partition so I can create a new partition/file system on that hard drive to install new linux distro, is this possible?
[01:33] <pvd2006> I got an error saying disk had atleast 2 bad sectors
[01:33] <gnomefreak> pvd2006: thats not a good sign
[01:34] <YoussefAssad> afternoon folks
[01:35] <YoussefAssad> little problem adding a scanner; it's a Benq 5000, which should be supported. USB. when I plug it in, it doesn't get assigned a /dev entry. Any thoughts?
[01:37] <veriz> Could someone tell me what's wrong with my apt-get or sources.list ? when im trying to install irssi im getting this error: irssi-text: Depends: libperl5.8 (>= 5.8.7) but it is not going to be installed
[01:37] <Auckland_Pig> I upgraded to dapper & restarted... now my browser wont connect to the web :-( . I can ping the sites....
[01:38] <gnomefreak> Auckland_Pig: please keep it in #ubuntu+1
[01:38] <Auckland_Pig> oh ok....
[01:38] <gnomefreak> veriz: paste your sources.list to pastebin
[01:38] <pvd2006> gnomefreak:  I am running bad blocks
[01:38] <gnomefreak> brb
[01:39] <pepsi> why do the us repos break so often?
[01:39] <veriz> gnomefreak: roger
[01:39] <pepsi> are they ever working?
[01:40] <veriz> gnomefreak: http://www.mindlab.ee/~renee/sources.txt
[01:41] <gnomefreak> veriz: put a # infront of the very first line so it reads #deb cdrom
[01:41] <gnomefreak> veriz: than save close and run sudo apt-get update
[01:42] <gnomefreak> veriz: also change all the hoarys to breezy
[01:43] <gnomefreak> veriz: everytime you see the word hoary erase it and put breezy in its place
[01:44] <gnomefreak> than save close run sudo apt-get update than sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:44] <veriz> gnomefreak: whats the difference?
[01:44] <gnomefreak> veriz: hoary and breezy are different versions of ubuntu
[01:44] <gnomefreak> veriz: they have different packages different versions of packages
[01:44] <veriz> gnomefreak: okey
[01:45] <veriz> gnomefreak: and now should work the apt-get install irssi-text?
[01:45] <veriz> gnomefreak: atm dist-upgrading
[01:45] <Abou> is there a way in nautilus to
[01:45] <Abou>  make it show the path of the current open directory (handy if I want to copy it and paste it to a shell)
[01:45] <gnomefreak> veriz: first off irssi should be installed already but yes if its not already installed sudo apt-get install irssi-text should work

[01:46] <gnomefreak> i dont kick on command
[01:47] <Hobbsee> gnomefreak: nice wrok
[01:47] <jpjacobs> ok sorry...it was just a suggestion
[01:47] <gnomefreak> Hobbsee: ty
[01:47] <gnomefreak> semboy: are you gonna play by the rules today?
[01:48] <semboyisnewtolin> hello help
[01:48] <semboyisnewtolin> a litl help
[01:48] <semboyisnewtolin> what wine version is good?
[01:49] <Hobbsee> semboyisnewtolin: the latest.
[01:49] <semboyisnewtolin> where can i gett it :P
[01:49] <gnomefreak> !wine
[01:49] <gnomefreak> !+wine
[01:49] <ubotu> Wine is a compatibility for running windows programs on linux.  Get the latest .deb from http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/binary/ . This thread - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=149585 - has details for installation and setup using winetools. More info at http://www.winehq.org or for support go to #winehq.
[01:50] <Subhuman> semboyisnewtolin, "sudo apt-get install wine" in the terminal
[01:50] <pvd2006> gnomefreak, I have 25 bad blocks so far.
[01:50] <gnomefreak> pvd2006: looks like you have a long fix ahead of you
[01:50] <pvd2006> can you fix bad blocks?
[01:50] <gnomefreak> pvd2006: iirc to fix them you will lose the os
[01:51] <gnomefreak> pvd2006: i know you can on windows lol
[01:51] <gnomefreak> pvd2006: you can on ubuntu just cant remember
[01:51] <pepsi> pointless
[01:51] <pepsi> you're hard drive is gunna die anyhow
[01:51] <gnomefreak> pepsi: thats not true
[01:51] <pvd2006> ive only had it for 5 years:-\, I want my moneys worth and keep it for an other 5!
[01:51] <pvd2006> lol
[01:52] <I_Love_DRM> what would we do without apt-get
[01:52] <jpjacobs> pepsi, not necesarily, I'm working on a buggy HD for 5 years no. the only problems i got where under windows. the hours-taking-scandisk :)
[01:52] <gnomefreak> I_Love_DRM: use yum :(
[01:53] <pvd2006> I have a question
[01:53] <gnomefreak> semboy: i warned you about that 3 times already
[01:53] <DBO> I_Love_DRM, how did everything go?
[01:53] <pvd2006> how do you remove packages without removing important dependencies?
[01:53] <Subhuman> pvd2006, if you go into synaptic and remove a package, it will just remove that package.
[01:54] <gnomefreak> pvd2006: depends on what you are removing
[01:54] <pvd2006> I really wanted to get rid of open office 2, but I heard thats not going to happen
[01:54] <DBO> pvd2006, apt-get remove removes that package and every package it depended on that is not depended on by anything else
[01:54] <Subhuman> pvd2006, if you select "complete removal " it will remove all the dependencies too.
[01:54] <jpjacobs> pvd2006 synaptic shouldn't remove anything that is still used.
[01:55] <gnomefreak> pvd2006: openoffice i dont think you can remove that without removing important things
[01:55] <I_Love_DRM> Very good - Installed everything again , then installed a program sysv-rc-conf to speed the boot
[01:55] <pvd2006> hmmm db0, I will take your word!
[01:55] <I_Love_DRM> now installing wine
[01:55] <soundray> pvd2006: you can feed a badblocks list to the formatter when creating a filesystem. man mke2fs
[01:56] <pvd2006> soundray, what do you think I am a linux user or something?!?!
[01:56] <pvd2006> hehehe
[01:56] <jpjacobs> pvd2006 or just have it checked when using mke2fs -c
[01:57] <DBO> pvd2006, if you are an ex windows user, you can think of mke2fs -c as a "full format"
[01:58] <gnomefreak> lilo: you here?
[01:58] <Frogzoo> pvd2006: soundray ide disks manage badblocks themselves...
[01:58] <pvd2006> ah ok, so that will check the hard disk out and try to fix it?
[01:58] <Seveas> gnomefreak, just ignore crap PMs ;)
[01:58] <pvd2006> Frogzoo: so I dont need to do all that?
[01:58] <gnomefreak> hes still going
[01:59] <Frogzoo> pvd2006: if an ide drive is giving you bad blocks, it's on its way out
[01:59] <Frogzoo> pvd2006: just mkfs.ext3 & you're done
[02:00] <npplsthx> can someone help me my ssh keeps getting the error port 22:Connection refused
[02:00] <Subhuman> hey, does anyone know how to make the framerate show in glxgears?
[02:00] <npplsthx> I'm trying to connect to linux box from windows one, they are both on a home network on router
[02:01] <Frogzoo> Subhuman: strings glxgears | less
[02:01] <Subhuman> npplsthx, to access files?
[02:01] <pvd2006> hmm, wonder what caused the disk to get so many bad blocks. I did notice it is slow as hell trying to copy files to other hard drives and copying files to other directories, maybe thats why.
[02:01] <Subhuman> thanks Frogzoo XD
[02:01] <npplsthx> to rsync backup
[02:01] <npplsthx> i actually had it working earlier, now it wont connect
[02:02] <Frogzoo> Subhuman: -printfps
[02:02] <takedown> Subhuman: glxgears -printfps, you maybe want do a alias
[02:02] <Subhuman> takedown, yeah I got it now, thanks.
[02:02] <Subhuman> I will :D
[02:03] <npplsthx> any ideas subhuman? i turned off all firewalls
[02:04] <eapache> I'm having trouble setting up a network with windows computers
[02:04] <Subhuman> npplsthx, I'm not sure if it was working before, and nothing has changed network wise on either end (like updates new hardware etc)
[02:05] <npplsthx> i installed firestarter and it messed things up, also deleted and reinstalled the rsync and ssh on the windows box
[02:05] <eapache> Everything seems to be working, I can see my files, but whenever I try to access them it comes up with a box saying I have to login???
[02:05] <pvd2006> how long is badblocks suppose to take btw? its been running for about 30 minutes so far
[02:05] <eapache> my password doesn't work...
[02:06] <Frogzoo> pvd2006: as long as it takes to read the entire disk - so it's not quick, no
[02:06] <jpjacobs> pvd2006 it can take a long time
[02:06] <npplsthx> using samba eapache?
[02:06] <|neo> does any one can help me with an apache problem my apache stats but is always teling that page was not found
[02:06] <pvd2006> ah its done right when you said that:)
[02:06] <taw> Frogzoo: is it even a good idea to use badblocks ? s.m.a.r.t. can scan a whole disk faster than badblocks can scan one partition.
[02:06] <eapache> yes,using samba
[02:07] <Frogzoo> taw: after I killed a drive running badblocks some years back, I've never used it since
[02:07] <npplsthx> i think theres a user file that you have to add accounts to in samba
[02:07] <eapache> Sorry, I had to set windows to allow other users to change my files, seems to be fixed now.
[02:08] <jpjacobs> Frogzoo: had the same some months ago.
[02:08] <Dethon> listy
[02:09] <pvd2006> smarttcl is that how you spell it?
[02:09] <Frogzoo> jpjacobs: nasty - but the ide h/w is supposed to manage bad blocks, so I just take the line, "there be monsters"
[02:10] <devie> anyone know of a good html parser?
[02:10] <Frogzoo> pvd2006: sudo apt-get install smartmontools
[02:10] <taw> devie: like LWP for Perl ?
[02:11] <devie> I dunno, looking at it now
[02:11] <taw> devie: it's cool, especially the way it handler html forms
[02:11] <redmonkey> hi. i always get the message "There are differences between boot sector and its backup." when i run fsck and it asks me if i want to copy the original to backup or the backup to original..
[02:12] <devie> taw: I really don't want to learn perl right now
[02:12] <devie> I just have a static html page that I need to get info out of, and BeautifulSoup/Python is pissing me off
[02:12] <aLPHa_LeaK> g'day
[02:12] <redmonkey> what would you choose? original to backup or backup to original?
[02:16] <eapache> I'm trying to transfer Firefox settings from XP to Ubuntu. I have copied my profile from application data in XP to Home/.mozilla/firefox/profiles in ubuntu, but when I start FF, it doesn't seem to recognize my profile.
[02:16] <eapache> It says that FF doesn't have a profile, and would I like to create one...
[02:16] <snowfaked> hmh, can i get ftp working with iptables configured to only allow ports and rest closed?
[02:17] <snowfaked> i allowed traffic to port 21, and then added -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 1024: -m helper --helper ftp -m state --state RELATED -j ACCEPT line
[02:17] <snowfaked> but my windows's cmd ftp hangs on port command
[02:18] <eapache> Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?
[02:19] <jpjacobs> you have to link the profile to the files you've put. openup the profilemanager (think it's in tools)
[02:19] <snowfaked> also it seems that the helper line isn't catching any packets :/
[02:19] <jpjacobs> there you can edit an account, and somewhere add the right folder to the profile
[02:20] <GaiaX11> I've noticed that i have lots of broken symlinks. Is there a way of fixing them at once? Is there a command line or a program to to that?
[02:20] <Dkt> I want to move a folder from /home/frantic/ (Folder I want to move is named CT_RaidAssist), to ~/.wine/drive_c/WoW/Interfaces, how should I do? I have tried the mv-command but it doesnt help.
[02:21] <eapache> I can't find a FF profiile manager...
[02:21] <eapache> nothing under 'tools'
[02:21] <jpjacobs> mmm lets see...
[02:23] <hexidigital_> good morning folks
[02:23] <jpjacobs> I think you can solve it this way: type in the adressline: about:config
[02:23] <eapache> k
[02:24] <eapache> which setting?
[02:24] <jpjacobs> in the filter thing profile. then set the profile_migration_directory to the dir you want. hope this works, never tried it myself
[02:24] <cocox> hi there!!
[02:24] <mimihu88> hi
[02:24] <|neo> i have a problem.... when a make aptitude purge to some pack the directorys and files stay in the hd
[02:25] <|neo> and wen i install them some packes creats only the dirs and nothing more
[02:25] <cocox> anybody knows how can i do a traceroute in ubuntu ?? im trying and i realize that i dont have "traceroute" just "traceroute6" and any time that i trye to make a trace to any host i got this message "traceroute: unknown host <IP_ADDRESS>"
[02:26] <RichiH> <IP_ADDRESS> has a single hop
[02:26] <RichiH> you
[02:26] <cocox> its just an example
[02:26] <cocox> its the same with any IP
[02:26] <jpjacobs> you can try apting it ;)
[02:26] <pepsi> any ideas on how big the repositories are? 100 gigs or so?
[02:26] <cocox> jpjacobs, how can i do that apting?
[02:27] <eapache> didn't work
[02:27] <jpjacobs> sudo apt-get install traceroute in a terminal, or search for it in synaptic.
[02:28] <Kuprin> Hey people.
[02:28] <jpjacobs> eapache, maybe look on some FF specific forum, or channel...
[02:28] <eapache> k
[02:28] <tbenita> Hi, under gnome when I plug an usb device and try to mount it from nautilus, I get a message saying that the media is already mounted under /media/usbdisk ; unable to execute pmount
[02:28] <tbenita> and it is actually already mounted
[02:28] <tbenita> but shouldn't be
[02:28] <pepsi> tracepath should be installed by default.. seems to be the same as traceroute
[02:28] <tbenita> any idea which process does mount it ?
[02:29] <cocox> jpjacobs, thank u !!! :)
[02:29] <jpjacobs> cocox np
[02:29] <jpjacobs> tbenita, there is some pluggable device like menu entry under administration. there you can set to autmount or not.
[02:30] <cocox> tbenita, maybe your usb devide its been mounted automaticly
[02:30] <cocox> just try an "ls /media/usbdisk"
[02:31] <tbenita> jpjacobs, I know it but I'd like my device to be mounted via gnome
[02:31] <tbenita> cocox, yes that's the point
[02:31] <tbenita> cocox, ls /media/usbdisk shows the device's content
[02:32] <tbenita> cocox, but I don't find how it has been mounted
[02:32] <BAD-IDEA> Hi, how to put tomcat service to start before apache2 service on unbunu default startup ?!?
[02:33] <ompaul> !tell BAD-IDEA about ApacheMySQLPHP
[02:33] <ompaul> BAD-IDEA, the end of that page deals with some tomcat stuff
[02:34] <BAD-IDEA> a didnt get any page yet
[02:34] <BAD-IDEA> !tell
[02:34] <ompaul> BAD-IDEA, check for a new tab from ubotu
[02:34] <Kuprin> Hey guys; I need to copy a graphic out of a PDF, is there anything I can use that'll do it in Ubuntu?
[02:34] <BAD-IDEA> !tell BAD-IDEA about ApacheMySQLPHP
[02:35] <BAD-IDEA> ubotu says--> i dunno what is 'ApacheMySQLPHP'.
[02:35] <ubotu> BAD-IDEA: okay
[02:35] <ompaul> BAD-IDEA, you got a new one - sorry its LAMP ;-) same thing
[02:35] <pvd2006> can someone see if www.pastebin.com is working alright? it seems to be taking forever to load
[02:35] <BAD-IDEA> ok
[02:35] <cocox> tbenita, you should look at this "/etc/fstab"
[02:36] <slackern> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[02:36] <piotrek_> Hi everybody!
[02:36] <nandz_> hi -- anyone working on phpEclipse? I'm stuck with some installation issues
[02:37] <piotrek_> Do anyone know how can i install intel c++ compiler on ubuntu?
[02:37] <tbenita> cocox, /etc/fstab has no information about usb device (only included hard drive and cdrom)
[02:37] <gnomefreak> piotrek_: gcc?
[02:37] <piotrek_> icc
[02:37] <gnomefreak> pvd2006: it is why not try the pastebin we use
[02:37] <piotrek_> gcc is trivial to install :)
[02:37] <nandz_> I'm getting a host of these errors when I install PHPeclipse 1.1.8 -- Plug-in "net.sourceforge.phpdt.smarty.ui" version "1.1.8" referenced by this feature is missing.
[02:37] <BAD-IDEA> ompaul what i need is to run Tomcat before Apache2 when i startup Ubuntu ?
[02:38] <ompaul> BAD-IDEA, it explains Tomcat at the foot of that page
[02:38] <maike-maus> hello. can anybody help me getting my network / internet working?
[02:38] <pepsi> BAD-IDEA, reorder their init scripts
[02:38] <tbenita> if I unmount /media/usbdisk and open mautilus desktop, I see the media, not mounted. Then I open it, and it gets mounted, but not into nautilus : it gets mounted back on /media/usbdisk
[02:39] <nandz_> maike-maus, where are you stuck right now?
[02:39] <tbenita> and if I try again to open it in nautilus, I get a message saying that it is already mounted
[02:39] <BAD-IDEA> ompaul its explains how to startup and restart Tomcat but i dont need this ..
[02:39] <cocox> tbenita, i had the same problem with my floppy...
[02:39] <BAD-IDEA> pepsi can you plz specify a little bit more about reordering init.d
[02:40] <pepsi> BAD-IDEA, /etc/init.d/ containts links to scripts in /etc/rc.X
[02:40] <tbenita> cocox, ah ! and how did you solve it ?
[02:40] <pepsi> er /etc/rcX.d
[02:40] <maike-maus> nandz_:  network monitor in panel shows connection lo: but nothing happens
[02:40] <ompaul> BAD-IDEA, if you have all that done, then do as pepsi said, the files in question live in /etc/rc.[0 to 6]
[02:41] <TempicoMB> Hi there.
[02:41] <BAD-IDEA> thanx :)
[02:41] <nandz_> maike-maus, "lo" is the loopback interface
[02:41] <nandz_> maike-maus, "lo" will not connect you across to the internet or LAN
[02:41] <TempicoMB> Can I get any help here concerning installation of Ubuntu on my Mac?
[02:41] <nandz_> maike-maus, you need something like "eth0" or "eth1" -- is it there?
[02:42] <nandz_> TempicoMB, why do you want to screw up your Mac -- I wish I had OS X on my laptop!
[02:42] <paperboy> osx = sd?
[02:42] <paperboy> bsd
[02:42] <maike-maus> nandz_ ok, at network monitor there is only lo - at network system there is also eth0  and it is actived...
[02:43] <paperboy> haha
[02:43] <Dkt> I want to move a folder from /home/frantic/ (Folder I want to move is named CT_RaidAssist), to ~/.wine/drive_c/WoW/Interfaces, how should I do? I have tried the mv-command but it doesnt help.
[02:43] <paperboy> hehe
[02:43] <ompaul> TempicoMB, try ##apple it might have one or two ubuntu people in it
[02:43] <nandz_> maike-maus, can you see two blinking computer in the top-right hand corner of your screen?
[02:44] <nandz_> maike-maus, open network settings (System->Administration->Network Settings) -- do you see eth0/eth1?
[02:44] <ompaul> TempicoMB, or waith 4 hours when one of the mac users should be here, however I understood it was rather trivial to install it on a Mac, but I am not inthat camp
[02:44] <maike-maus> nandz_ yethis is what I called network monitors...
[02:44] <|neo> how to i set up the apache to work with php ?"
[02:44] <nandz_> maike-maus, if yes, then open then select eth0/eth1 and open the properties dialog box
[02:45] <maike-maus> at netwwk settings I see ra0 (wireless) eth0 (lan) and ppp0 (modem)
[02:45] <nandz_> maike-maus, are you doing it? (btw -- how're you on IRC -- someone else's machine?)
[02:45] <I_Love_DRM> does anyone know apt-get for motif please
[02:46] <maike-maus> nandz_ yes, I can see them there - and now I'm on my old machine online
[02:46] <piotrek_> http://www.linki.zhr.pl/upload/hmm.png
[02:46] <piotrek_> this is where the erros starts
[02:46] <nandz_> maike-maus, okay -- are you on a LAN, if yes - then you probably need to configure eth0
[02:46] <piotrek_> while installing intel c++ compiler
[02:46] <piotrek_> icc, not gcc
[02:46] <nandz_> maike-maus, select eth0 -- and fire up the properties dialog box
[02:46] <jpjacobs> I_Love_DRM: try aptitude, it's a console client, but a real good one
[02:47] <maike-maus> nandz_ ok, the box is opened
[02:47] <nandz_> maike-maus, does your LAN have a DHCP server?
[02:47] <ompaul> don't like that nick name:  I_Love_DRM,  but your looking at : apt-cache search motif | more all the lesstif things are what you want to look at
[02:47] <maike-maus> nandz_ the connection is aivated (checked box) and dhcp is choosen
[02:47] <piotrek_> http://www.linki.zhr.pl/upload/hmm.png
[02:47] <piotrek_> can anyone help me?
[02:48] <nandz_> maike-maus, okay -- then fire up a terminal window (command prompt) and type "ifconfig"
[02:48] <jpjacobs> I_Love_DRM: sorry mis understood your question
[02:48] <maike-maus> nandz_ ok, I did it - do you need some information from ifconfig?
[02:49] <ompaul> piotrek_, that kernel is really old - you won't get it in a modern breezy or dapper
[02:49] <nandz_> maike-maus, just see if eth0 has been assigned an IP address
[02:49] <ompaul> piotrek_, you need something that will work with a 2.6.10 kernel or higher
[02:50] <piotrek_> ompaul, i have the newest kubuntu !
[02:50] <piotrek_> kubuntu beta 2
[02:50] <mythicness> how do you increase a process's priority
[02:50] <ompaul> piotrek_, the software your trying to install is looking for a much older version of linux
[02:50] <jackn> Hello, I'm a Ubuntu newbie and I'd like to know how I can access the files on my hard drive (I'm booting from a llive CD).
[02:50] <maike-maus> nandz_   no
[02:50] <ompaul> piotrek_, what is that software maybe we have something that can take its place
[02:50] <nandz_> maike-maus, the output of ifconfig should have something like "inet addr: x.y.z.w" against eth0 -- are you with me?
[02:51] <jpjacobs> mythicness: renice <level> <processnumber>
[02:51] <jpjacobs> mythicness: the lower the level, the higher the priority
[02:51] <nandz_> maike-maus, I'm sending you my ifconfig output in a private message
[02:51] <ompaul> piotrek_, sorry I made a mistake
[02:51] <cailan> have chinese?
[02:51] <maike-maus> nandz_  well there is:    inet6 Adresse: fe80::240:d0ff:fe82:b3ab/64    but I think this     not an IP adress, right?
[02:52] <jpjacobs> mythicness: You get the process id by running ps ax|grep <the prog you want to renice>
[02:52] <ompaul> piotrek_, it should work if you just enter the number 1
[02:52] <nandz_> maike-maus, check the line just above that inet6 line
[02:52] <ompaul>  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[02:52] <nandz_> maike-maus, it should have your IP address -- is it there?
[02:52] <Stargazers> Hi. Can someone tell quickly what was the command in Xorg.conf how I can made Compose manager work? In Section "Extensions" I had to write something "Compose" "true" or something like that, but what was that?
[02:53] <maike-maus> nandz_  no, only the hardware adress
[02:53] <nandz_> maike-maus, okay chuck this -- do you know any IP address in your LAN -- an IP address of a machine that you're sure will be on the network right now?
[02:53] <jackn> Hello, I have a Windows XP PC and I booted from a Ubuntu live CD. I'd like to access my files but I can't find the directory... Some help please?
[02:53] <nandz_> maike-maus, or the hostname/website address of a machine on your LAN -- something like an intranet server or something
[02:53] <maike-maus> nandz_   Protokoll: Ethernet Hardware Adresse  00:40:D0:82:B3:AB
[02:54] <ompaul> !tell jackn about ntfs
[02:54] <ompaul> jackn, please read the message from ubotu
[02:54] <nandz_> maike-maus, try pinging another machine on your LAN
[02:54] <maike-maus> nandz_ yes, I know other IP adresses of my network
[02:54] <nandz_> maike-maus, try pinging it
[02:54] <Stargazers> !tell Stargazers about composite manager
[02:54] <Stargazers> !tell Stargazers about composite
[02:54] <nandz_> maike-maus, $ ping ip_address
[02:54] <piotrek_> ompaul, i have try 1 but this don't work :(
[02:54] <Stargazers> Damn that show only the links.
[02:55] <nandz_> maike-maus, you with me?
[02:55] <Stargazers> I am in text mode just now and I'd be very happy if someone helps?
[02:55] <ompaul> jackn, a word of warning due to the closed nature of NTFS it not being a published standard writing to it is sure to break your files
[02:55] <maike-maus> nandz_ connect: Network is unreachable
[02:55] <ompaul> piotrek_, well what is that software?
[02:55] <piotrek_> i have kubuntu beta 2 and i'm installing intel c++ compiler 9.0
[02:56] <nandz_> maike-maus, hmm --what was the IP that you tried?
[02:56] <maike-maus> nandz_ <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:56] <ompaul> piotrek_, well it looks like is it not, why not use the ubuntu compiler> sudo apt-get install build-essential<< will give you gcc as your compiler
[02:56] <nandz_> maike-maus, okay -- let's try something else
[02:57] <Jimmey__> What do I have to do to download from a .torrent? I can't seem to connect to anyone
[02:57] <nandz_> maike-maus, type $ route -n
[02:57] <piotrek_> i'm using gcc every time
[02:57] <|neo> does any one help me to setup php5 in apache2 ?!
[02:57] <piotrek_> but i want something more efficient
[02:57] <nandz_> maike-maus, do you know the IP address of the gateway on your LAN?
[02:57] <piotrek_> for my intel centrino processor
[02:57] <maike-maus> nandz_ no entries - the gateway is the router right?
[02:58] <nandz_> maike-maus, yes -- in many cases
[02:58] <ompaul> |neo, you already had that conversation for over an hour this morning, I know cos I tried that I can do php apache and mysql from that web page
[02:58] <nandz_> maike-maus, in all probability your DHCP is screwing up the config
[02:58] <v3rmap>  Hi, I'm using emacs on Ubuntu and I'm unable to paste text selections in emacs to anywhere else. How can I fix this?
[02:58] <|neo> now the server is working but the php is not
[02:58] <nandz_> maike-maus, has someone given you a static IP address for your maching -- I think you should dump DHCP and configure your network by hand
[02:59] <piotrek_> so nobody is able to help me :(
[02:59] <|neo> i tryde the wiki no use
[02:59] <ompaul> |neo, read the instructions on that web page 1 line at a time and you will get there, we have reordered some of the wording not changed it so it might be clearer
[02:59] <nandz_> maike-maus, you'll need an IP address for your machine and the IP address of the default gateway -- do you have that?
[02:59] <maike-maus> nandz_ yes, I have both
[02:59] <ompaul> piotrek_, well you really need to ask intel why it is not working
[02:59] <nandz_> maike-maus, great -- go to network settings dialog box again
[03:00] <|neo> ompaul: i already tryed no use
[03:00] <nandz_> maike-maus, switch from DHCP to Static IP address
[03:00] <nandz_> maike-maus, and enter the details below
[03:00] <maike-maus> nandz_ ok, I#m there
[03:01] <nandz_> maike-maus, entered the details?
[03:01] <ompaul> |neo, I tried and it worked, rather than wasting another hour on irc why not do sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 php mysql and then start again on that page
[03:01] <|neo> after instaling the php5 i have runded the udo a2enmod php5 and it gives me a no sutch file
[03:01] <maike-maus> nandz_ yes
[03:01] <trentster> Hi, ive done a server install in conjunction installed vmware server, eth0 keeps being mapped to the wrong network interface not the gigabit one, what is the easiest way to swop the 2 around?
[03:01] <kubus> Tag
[03:01] <nandz_> maike-maus, the subnet mask should be filled in automatically -- don't worry about that
[03:01] <nandz_> maike-maus, now click ok -- and try pinging some other machine again
[03:01] <nandz_> maike-maus, oh before that -- deactivate/activate eth0
[03:01] <|neo> ompaul my apt-get does not remove the files
[03:02] <|neo> ompaul : it does not give any error but the directorys stay their
[03:02] <Jimmey__> BitTorrent won't connect to anyone. What's up?
[03:02] <nandz_> maike-maus, any luck?
[03:02] <maike-maus> nandz_   host unreachable
[03:03] <piotrek_> hmm ok so i have another question
[03:03] <ompaul> |neo where on that page does it say >> sudo a2enmod php5<< I can't see it
[03:03] <piotrek_> do anyone know gcov tool ?
[03:03] <nandz_> maike-maus, check ifconfig again -- can you see your IP address this time?
[03:04] <piotrek_> how can i "tell" vim to colorize .c.gcov files ?
[03:04] <|neo> If apache is not actually parsing the php after you restarted it, install libapache2-mod-php4. It should be installed when you install the php4 package, but some users have reported that it wasn't for them. You may also need to actually enable it, by doing sudo a2enmod php4
[03:04] <nandz_> maike-maus, if you see your IP address against eth0 -- then try pinging the default gw -- and just check -- have you plugged in your LAN cable?
[03:04] <ompaul> |neo, this means you are not following the instructions, there are php5 instructions and there are php4 instructions they are diffenent in some places
[03:04] <corey> can someone tell me why my wlan0 interface isnt shown or brought up after I restart?
[03:04] <|neo> i have made them both
[03:04] <|neo> does not work
[03:05] <|neo> i have 3 computers with this problem
[03:05] <|neo> the same
[03:05] <maike-maus> nandz_ I can see the IP adress there
[03:05] <|neo> apt-get it does not remove any thing the apt-get instal only crates dirs
[03:05] <maike-maus> nandz: nandz_ but I can't ping the gw
[03:05] <nandz_> maike-maus, well then -- try pinging the gw
[03:06] <nandz_> maike-maus, have you plugged in the LAN cable?
[03:06] <ompaul> |neo, I got php4 to work in 4 minutes of work this morning, you need to remove all existing config files and start again you have done something wrong, you would have reinstalled them three times over and followed the wiki for the time you have spent here, now if your willing to rebuild a box do nothing and come back I will help you with this, but only if it is a clean install
[03:06] <nandz_> maike-maus, can you see a light blinking and all -- are you sure the h/w is working perfectly?
[03:06] <I_Love_DRM> plug the hub in
[03:06] <Jimmey__> How can I check what users are using my PC? My Uptime desklet says three users are online
[03:06] <lss> Hi, if I download at 20kbps, and times (x) that by 100, how many megabytes (or kbps) do i have?
[03:06] <maike-maus> nandz_ I can ping myself - but not the router
[03:07] <|neo> ompaul: how can i reinstal if my apt-get does not REMOVE ANYTHING cant you read
[03:07] <ompaul> |neo, do this, choose one box, install the server on it only
[03:07] <nandz_> maike-maus, try pinging yourself with your external IP -- NOT <IP_ADDRESS> -- can you do that?
[03:07] <|neo> ompaul: i have done that
[03:07] <maike-maus> nandz_ yes I pinged me correctly with <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:07] <|neo> ompaul: i would not be here if i didn't tyed that
[03:07] <ompaul> |neo, I mean you have installed all sorts of stuff, and I mean a total reinstall, and I can read thanks, as a result of that, this conversation is over
[03:08] <StarSharp> I have the same problem, but just now I remove all the extra repo I added before and go to yast , running the Online Update configuration
[03:08] <StarSharp> and everything's works well
[03:08] <ompaul> |neo, base operating system
[03:08] <nandz_> maike-maus, checked the h/w? and are you sure the other machine is really up? try some alternate IP addresses
[03:08] <|neo> ompaul: yes i have 3 computers
[03:08] <StarSharp> hints, don't add repo in the installation sources, but add it in Online Update
[03:08] <|neo> ompaul: none of the instalations works
[03:08] <ompaul> |neo, choose one, install ubuntu on it from the start cleanly then come back to me and I will get you up and running
[03:09] <StarSharp> hei
[03:09] <StarSharp> sorry
[03:09] <maike-maus> nandz_ the other machine works fine and the hardware of my new system works as well
[03:09] <StarSharp> I chat on the wrong channel
[03:09] <StarSharp> ><
[03:09] <StarSharp> LOL
[03:09] <ompaul> !enter
[03:09] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[03:09] <StarSharp> I thought I was in #suse
[03:09] <|neo> ompaul: dwd i konw that my ing is not so good but i'm realy on thar part....
[03:10] <StarSharp> sorry, my bad ^^. I have to go now. Sorry again.. ><
[03:10] <ompaul> StarSharp, if I kicked you out, would it be fair to say "yast for that" ... (you asked)
[03:10] <piotrek_> is it possible to work in text-mode on widescreen laptop with two windows one time ???????????
[03:10] <corey> can someone tell me why i configured my wlan0 had it all working im using network-manager, go to restart network-manager doesnt recognize a wlan0 and neither does the system
[03:10] <|neo> ompaul: thats whay i asking help...
[03:10] <Dr_Willis> piotrek_,  you could just learn to use 'screen'
[03:10] <Jimmey__> corey, write the information to /etc/network/interfaces
[03:10] <nandz_> maike-maus, what's the output of your route -n command?
[03:11] <ompaul> |neo, please choose one of your computers, install ubuntu on it from the start, then come in and look for me
[03:11] <corey> Jimmey__: network-manager is using it though
[03:11] <|neo> i just did
[03:11] <corey> Jimmey__: not the system
[03:11] <Jimmey__> If the interface works, try "iface wlan0 inet dhcp [newline]  netmask <IP_ADDRESS> [newline]  gateway <IP_ADDRESS> [newline] , auto wlan0"
[03:11] <ompaul> |neo, it has no apache on it, it has no php or mysql on it at all?
[03:12] <|neo> new
[03:12] <|neo> just the base
[03:12] <Jimmey__> corey, write that to interfaces, then sudo ifup ra0
[03:12] <ompaul> |neo, fine
[03:12] <Jimmey__> *sudo ifup wlan0
[03:12] <|neo> ompaul: vantage of having more than 1 computer
[03:12] <maike-maus> <IP_ADDRESS>     <IP_ADDRESS>     <IP_ADDRESS>  U    0    0     0     eth0
[03:12] <ompaul> |neo, as this is so text intensive join me in the channel #ulamp
[03:13] <maike-maus> <IP_ADDRESS>     <IP_ADDRESS>         <IP_ADDRESS>            UG     0     0         0    eth0
[03:13] <nandz_> maike-maus, is <IP_ADDRESS> your default gw?
[03:13] <corey> Jimmey__: if i set it to auto come up network-manager wont be allowed to access it
[03:14] <snowfaked> could i somehow set directory where people can create directories, but the ownership is automatically transferred to single group, like team01, and only the directors creator can delete files?
[03:17] <maike-maus> nandz_   yes this  my router
[03:17] <nandz_> maike-maus, then I'm stumped -- seems to me that e'thing is correct -- are you sure the kernel recognizes your ethernet card properly?
[03:17] <maike-maus> nandz_  I don't know? With win it works...
[03:17] <cocox> anyone knows where can i find the FPING and GPING tools ????????????
[03:17] <jpjacobs> cocox search in synaptic
[03:19] <maike-maus> nandz_ the both targets <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>   are pingable...
[03:20] <snowfaked> uh i don't understand, if there is write access to group that user belong, why he isn't able to create directory/file to that dir?
[03:21] <snowfaked> it's not users primary group but user is part of the group with write permissions
[03:21] <cocox> jpjacobs, thank u again budy ;)
[03:21] <Jimmey__> How should I set up Apache securely? Should I create a new user to run apache, that only has read access to my DocumentRoot?
[03:21] <hyphenated> maike-maus: <IP_ADDRESS> isn't really a target :-)
[03:21] <jpjacobs> cocox np
[03:22] <raptros-v76> Jimmey__: its secure already
[03:22] <_mason> Hey
[03:22] <raptros-v76> Jimmey__: the default settings were assembled by people smarter that you or me
[03:23] <thesaltydog> I had nm-applet working in breezy. Now in Dapper it always shows "no-connection" even if I am connected
[03:23] <Jimmey__> raptros-v76, yes, but It's run with sudo, and I'm getting reports of multiple users on this PC ( usual ), by when I type "users", it says that I'm logged on 4 times; which might mean that someone could access my files?
[03:24] <jpjacobs> Jimmey_ it should be run as a startup service... so sudo /etc/init.d/apache start
[03:24] <raptros-v76> Jimmey__: no one can access your computer through apache.  theres something else going on. and the user should be www-<somethingorother>
[03:24] <jpjacobs> or something like that
[03:25] <Jimmey__> raptros-v76, so there's a new user set up already?
[03:25] <Aleks> i need help ...
[03:25] <_mason> I dont think i have my nvidia drivers configured correctly, it does not show any refresh rate beyond 60htz, and i have the latest nvidia-glx drivers, in synaptic there are 'nvidia-glx-legasy' drivers, is that what i should install? if not can someone link me to a xorg.conf wiki that can help me with this issue?
[03:25] <raptros-v76> Jimmey__: read the conf file
[03:25] <Aleks> who know how i can make dialup connection on ubuntu ?
[03:26] <fyrestrtr> _mason: does direct rendering work?
[03:26] <spacey> _mason: CRT or TFT/LCD?
[03:26] <FeestBijtje> how do i browse with "The Terminal" with dirs like Unreal Tournament 2004
[03:26] <fyrestrtr> FeestBijtje: cd Unreal\ Tournament\ 2004
[03:26] <FeestBijtje> thnx fyre
[03:26] <FeestBijtje> thnx fyrestrt1
[03:26] <fyrestrtr> FeestBijtje: or cd Unreal<tab>
[03:27] <FeestBijtje> thnx fyrestrtr
[03:27] <spacey> or: cd "Unreal Tournament 2004"
[03:27] <_mason> CRT VX1120, on 1920x1440, before i reformatted it could reach 75htz
[03:27] <_mason> now i cannot
[03:27] <Jimmey__> raptros-v76, "It is     recommended that you set up a new user and group specifically     for running the server."
[03:27] <raptros-v76> Jimmey__: lok at the option user and group
[03:28] <Jimmey__> In the conf file?
[03:28] <_mason> fyrestrtr: Direct rendering?
[03:30] <Mr_GTi> Hey Everbody
[03:30] <Mr_GTi> Is anybody there????
[03:30] <_mason> Hey?
[03:30] <Mr_GTi> Hey

[03:31] <Arrick> anyone, I installed the default install, how do I get it so the gui doesnt automatically start?
[03:32] <_mason> Mandurah actually, 1 hour away from perth

[03:32] <Mr_GTi> Ahhhh    one of he better parts of Oz
[03:32] <_mason> fastest growing city in australia!
[03:32] <NotNet> Jimmey__, dependencies problems
[03:32] <Mr_GTi> I need some advice......
[03:32] <Jimmey__> NotNet, so get the packages it requires
[03:32] <_mason> not sure i can be of any help?
[03:32] <Arrick> _mason, you only have like 10 cities there right?
[03:32] <Mr_GTi> how familliar are you with linux????
[03:33] <_mason> well, try 3-4 weeks
[03:33] <Mr_GTi> lol
[03:33] <Mr_GTi> well your better than me
[03:33] <_mason> :D
[03:33] <Mr_GTi> lol,
[03:33] <_mason> well whats your problem?
[03:33] <Mr_GTi> Im a long time windows user
[03:33] <_mason> as was i
[03:33] <Arrick> Mr_GTi, whats your question?
[03:33] <Mr_GTi> and im considering converting to Linux
[03:33] <Arrick> so was I but now I run a ubuntu network for a living
[03:33] <_mason> are you on linux right now?
[03:33] <Mr_GTi> no
[03:34] <Arrick> ok, question somewhere?
[03:34] <Mr_GTi> I wouldnt know the first thing about it
[03:34] <Mr_GTi> lol
[03:34] <Arrick> ok
[03:34] <_mason> Hmm
[03:34] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, have you tried the Ubuntu LiveCD ?
[03:34] <Mr_GTi> not yet
[03:34] <scifi> Mr_GTi: try the livecd
[03:34] <scifi> hehe
[03:34] <Arrick> ubuntu roks man, almost as easy to use as XP
[03:34] <Mr_GTi> lol...   what are the advantages of Linux over windows?????
[03:34] <_mason> http://www.ubuntu.com/download
[03:34] <Arrick> opensource
[03:35] <_mason> I love ubuntu
[03:35] <Mr_GTi> Yeh Besides that
[03:35] <Mr_GTi> lol
[03:35] <scifi> the only reason i still dual-boot into windows is because of a game that runs better under windows
[03:35] <Mr_GTi> ahhhh
[03:35] <cocox> jpjacobs, i already installed fping from synaptic , but when i execute this from the console nothing happens
[03:35] <scifi> nething else ubuntu does as good/better
[03:35] <Mr_GTi> is there a 64 bit verson of it???
[03:35] <scifi> yes
[03:35] <nss29> hep me hep me.....alsa
[03:35] <Arrick> you can get just about anything you need for free, and also it has better support, and it doesnt run unnecessary processes in the backgound, you dont need a firewall, (it is a firewall)
[03:36] <Arrick> yes
[03:36] <_mason> ^ speaking of which, does anyone know the first thing about emulating windows xp in a shell in linux?
[03:36] <raptros-v76> nss29: what about alsa
[03:36] <raptros-v76> _mason: wine?
[03:36] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, that's the best place to start looking at linux. The performance will be alot slower than an actual install and things like your video resolution may need some post install tweeking.
[03:36] <Subhuman> _mason, using vmware or xen maybe?
[03:36] <Mr_GTi> Im running a AMD 64 3500+ processor....
[03:36] <_mason> no
[03:36] <_mason> like emulate windows
[03:36] <Subhuman> !vmware
 Please check this out, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingVMWare adjusting kernel versions to your own, to get the number replace the numbers with >>`uname -r<< leave out the <> the ` is a Backtic
[03:36] <_mason> Oooh, cool
[03:36] <_mason> thankyou
[03:37] <scifi> Mr_GTi: linuxjones is talking about the livecd btw
[03:37] <thesaltydog> Anyone has experiences in nm-applet not working?
[03:37] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, I would avoid the 64 bit version of Ubuntu
[03:37] <nss29> can't get the sound working on my box. noticed on the alsa mixer that the chip called out is not my sound card.
[03:37] <Mr_GTi> yeh????
[03:37] <NotNet> Using the Synaptic it resolves the dependencies and installs everything taht is great. Is there any way to do this having a .deb file?
[03:37] <Mr_GTi> im on a 64bit machine
[03:37] <abrar> SOME of my Repositories are giving some kind of error! I thinks its related to some KEY or something. i just installed ubuntu. what can i do?
[03:37] <scifi> sorry dont know alot about the 64bit version
[03:37] <_mason> ive  been reading a bit about some of the these windows emulators.. what about speeds? how does VMWare clock up?
[03:38] <Arrick> abrar which ones?
[03:38] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, you probably won't notice any difference between the 64bit and 32bit version unless you do alot of things like compiling software or encoding videos etc..
[03:38] <Mr_GTi> is there any need for an anti virus???    and what do you mean ubantu is a firewall???????
[03:38] <scifi> _mason: in general i think virtualization is slower
[03:38] <JoshRA> Hello, I am trying to use a usb headset, and I can not seem to get the sound routed to it, I looked in dmesg and it said it sees it and loaded usb audio there is /dev/dsp1 but i can not find volume controls for it?
[03:38] <jpjacobs> NotNet use dpkg -i
[03:38] <Arrick> if they are us, they are bad, if they are Seveas repos, you need to read the site
[03:38] <Dr_Willis> _mason,  a lot of it depends on the program/os you are running. I hear most are not too bad for running utilities.. (dont start on games)
[03:38] <DarkJesus> I have one question
[03:38] <Mr_GTi> I do do alot of encoding videos
[03:38] <Arrick> Mr_GTi, no need for antivirus
[03:38] <DarkJesus> Whenever I do sudo, what password should I be putting in?
[03:39] <Arrick> adn ubuntu is a firewall in itself
[03:39] <abrar> Arrick: http://bd.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[03:39] <Mr_GTi> interesting
[03:39] <Arrick> DarkJesus, your user password
[03:39] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, alot of stuff like flash don't really work out of the box on 64
[03:39] <_mason> scifi: just some ive heard are more sluggish for this and that, while others are better doing that and this.. ill check out VMWare, thanks
[03:39] <DarkJesus> The one I made during installation?
[03:39] <scifi> now theres a BIG reason to switch to linux for starters, huge security advantages
[03:39] <abrar> Arrick: it says could not downlaod all repository indexes... The repository might be no longer available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and the correct writing of the repository address in the preferences.
[03:39] <Arrick> abrar, where it says bd, change it to ei
[03:39] <_mason> Dr_Willis: And Yeah. was going play some games... Metal Slug X :P
[03:40] <scifi> _mason: well i tried wine for gaming, was incredibly slow
[03:40] <Mr_GTi> Flash dont work???
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> _mason,  that a windows or dos game?
[03:40] <_mason> Dos :D
[03:40] <DarkJesus> Arrick, will it be the password for the account I made during installation?
[03:40] <Arrick> yes
[03:40] <_mason> dont think ill have a problem
[03:40] <scifi> _mason: but for everyday apps, (office suites etc) they will probly run ok
[03:40] <abrar> Arrick withou this repo, i cant install many additional cool packages, that i did in my other PC. for example, i have no xine listed, i have no 3ddesktop listed etc...
[03:40] <Arrick> DarkJesus, yes
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> _mason,  dos is EASY. :P use 'dosbox'
[03:40] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, it is harder to get working on 64bit Ubuntu
[03:40] <_mason> but i mainly  need it for Flash 8 and photoshop
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> _mason,  it runs most all the dos games great.
[03:40] <Mr_GTi> oh does iTunes work on ubantu????
[03:40] <DarkJesus> OK, cool, thanks Arrick
[03:40] <NotNet> jpjacobs, ok it says lots of dependencies
[03:40] <_mason> Really?
[03:40] <Arrick> abrar, their network is down right now
[03:40] <_mason> Jesus
[03:41] <JoshRA> Anyone know of anything that can help me?
[03:41] <_mason> thats so awesome, thanks Dr_Williams
[03:41] <NotNet> jpjacobs, but do I have to install each one by hand?
[03:41] <Arrick> !language
[03:41] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[03:41] <jpjacobs> Notnet: then you'll have to get them or forget about the package
[03:41] <abrar> Arrick: it also says W: Couldn't stat source package list http://bd.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/bd.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_universe_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[03:41] <Dr_Willis> _mason,  i even set up gnomes file manager to have a menu/script to launch dos games from the gui by right clicking on the dos/game folder :P
[03:41] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, your first experience with Ubuntu should be easy, I would recommend you install the 386 version
[03:41] <jpjacobs> Notnet, no it should happen automagically
[03:41] <Mr_GTi> 386???
[03:41] <EvilGuru> what do I need to do to make it so that mysql accepts external connections?
[03:42] <Dr_Willis> _mason,  some games dont work that well however. like DOOM and some of the others that use fancy memory managers. The latest Linux Magazine I got. even had an artical on using vmware and dos games.
[03:42] <abrar> i am getting this error: W: Couldn't stat source package list http://bd.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/bd.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_universe_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[03:42] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, I don't know about iTunes you'll have to search google for that I guess
[03:42] <abrar> what can i do???
[03:42] <scifi> Mr_GTi: u may want to wait until June 1st when the very latest version of ubuntu (dapper) is released
[03:42] <Dr_Willis> abrar,  yse a different repository.  perhaps.
[03:42] <Mr_GTi> ,mmmmmmm
[03:42] <_mason> Dr_Willis: Got Wiki? :) i would like to setup my own script like that, maby a tutorial in general?
[03:42] <Mr_GTi> <<<<<<   goes to download the CD
[03:42] <Mr_GTi> lol
[03:43] <scifi> Mr_GTi: i think itunes is so popular that people have managed to "hack" it and it does indeed run on linux
[03:43] <Jimmey__> So how would I create a user and a group with limited privileges for Apache to run as?
[03:43] <abrar> Dr_Willis: How can i determind which repo to add, and HOW do i add?? PLease HELP!!
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> !easysource
[03:43] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[03:43] <Mr_GTi> Besides security is there any other advantages of ubantu over windows?????    or even macosx   for that matter????
[03:43] <ompaul> abrar, remove the br from the lines starting with http: while using the command >>sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list << after that run sudo apt-get update and continue from there
[03:44] <Dr_Willis> abrar,  and a read of the bots "!apt-get" urls is handy.
[03:44] <james_xxx> does anyone here know if a linksys WUSB54GS usb network adapter has ever been configured to work well with ubuntu?
[03:44] <Jimmey__> And that's so good about iTunes?
[03:44] <Dr_Willis> Jimmey__,  ive often wonderd that myself.. :P and normally Uninstall it as soon as i can.
[03:44] <ompaul> Mr_GTi, too many for this forum, try it you'll love it
[03:44] <Mr_GTi> Well i have an iPod and i like the way itunes works, with the music store and such
[03:45] <Jimmey__> Dr_Willis, I don't see what it's got that Amarok hasn't - And I'm not a fan of Amarok
[03:45] <Jimmey__> Xfmedia owns all
[03:45] <scifi> Mr_GTi: ubuntu comes with a type of "database" of apps called repositories, which u can search and install at your leisure knowing that it will run perfectly on ur system, thats one of the main features i love about it
[03:45] <EvilGuru> can anyone tell me how I can get mysql (sever) to accept external connections, I have create a user wich the host is %
[03:45] <Mr_GTi> me tempted
[03:46] <Dr_Willis> Jimmey__,  it trys to lock you into their store. and perhaps watches what you play. :P thats a 'feature'
[03:46] <EvilGuru> but the server keeps refusing my connection
[03:46] <_mason> Dr_Willis: Im quite annoyed from copying anything from a read only location ( eg CD ) and it all being, well read only, do you know how to create a script that will auto chmod * ?
[03:46] <LinuxJones> Mr_GTi, reliability, ease of installing applications and system/security upgrades
[03:46] <gordonjcp> Mr_GTi: what *kind* of GTi?
[03:47] <Jimmey__> Mr_GTi, you'll be a bad-ass if you use Ubuntu. You'll be like everyone else if you use Windows.
[03:47] <ompaul> Mr_GTi, ubuntu is the name :-)
[03:47] <Mr_GTi> LMAO @ Jimmey
[03:47] <scifi> Mr_GTi: 17817 packages currently listed in databse :D
[03:47] <Mr_GTi> Wonder how much stuffed penquins are these days.... lol
[03:48] <james_xxx> does ANYONE in here know how a wireless USB adapter could be configured to work with ubuntu?
[03:48] <_mason> Jimmey__: even more bad-ass in IT classes when you tell you teacher you cant do your MS Frontpage homework, AHahahah
[03:48] <ompaul> Mr_GTi, a lot less than one widows upgrade licence
[03:48] <ompaul> !offtopic
[03:48] <ubotu> Non Ubuntu support related discussions may be carried out in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[03:48] <Dr_Willis> _mason,  hmm.. ive never seen that happen under linux. only windows.
[03:48] <Jimmey__> _mason - "Sir, I couldn't do my homework, I was too busy having a secure system."
[03:49] <abrar> ompaul: im a newvie.. this looks like some kid of cofig file.. can u give me some easier command, how to update the source list?
[03:49] <Jimmey__> XoD
[03:49] <_mason> Jimmey__: Yes!
